Concerns raised over Double Track project BY KRISTINA HOUCK The San Diego Association of Governments is moving forward with plans to build a special events platform at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, double track a stretch of the railway and replace the bridge over the San Dieguito River, but many area residents have concerns. SANDAG Project Manager Linda Culp gave an overview of the multi-million dollar project to the City Council on Nov. 4, which was followed by a presentation from the San Dieguito Double Track Project ad hoc committee. After listening to both presentations and hearing from several community members, the council decided to send a letter to SANDAG to outline the city’s concerns. Councilman Al Corti recused himself from both presentations because he lives within 500 feet from the project area. “I think that they’re sincere in listening to our community’s concerns,” said Councilwoman Sherryl Parks, who serves as a council liaison to the ad hoc committee, along with Deputy Mayor Lee Haydu. “I think that Del Mar deserves to be heard because this will have a substantial change of life for those who live around that area.” The project includes new double track bridge structures over the San Dieguito River to replace the current wooden trestle bridge built in 1916. The bridge could be raised up to 8 feet in some sections because it is currently in the See PROJECT, page 30

Douglas Manchester’s U-T Community News group buys Rancho Santa Fe Review

FROM RANCHO SANTA FE REVIEW AND U-T REPORTS U-T San Diego affiliate U-T Community News, LLC, bought Mainstreet Communications’ eight San Diegoarea community newspapers and their websites, it was announced Friday, Nov. 1. The transaction included acquisition of the Rancho Santa Fe Review, Del Mar Times, Carmel Valley News, Solana Beach Sun, La Jolla Light, Poway News Chieftain, Rancho Bernardo News Journal and Ramona Sentinel. The U-T created a new division, U-T Community Press, to operate the papers. Phyllis Pfeiffer, current group publisher of Mainstreet Communications’ San Diego publications, will continue to lead the collection as vice president and general manager of the U-T Community Press division. The acquisition is part of an overall strategy to better serve the San Diego community through publishing hyper-local news that complements the more regional reporting of the flagship newspaper, U-T San Diego. “We are thrilled to be taking on the stewardship of these community newspapers,” said U-T San Diego Publisher Douglas Manchester. “We believe that community news is one of the hallmarks of strong local newspapers, and we intend to continue this legacy for many years to come. With these papers as a template, our strategy will be to launch additional community papers in San Diego’s larger communities and neighborhoods.” “As a longtime resident of Rancho Santa Fe I am particularly excited to welcome the Rancho Santa Fe Review to the U-T San Diego family,” said U-T San Diego CEO John Lynch. “We look for-

U-T San Diego CEO John Lynch ward to continuing and enhancing the Review’s unique coverage of the special community of Rancho Santa Fe.” Lynch described a vision of weekly publications across the county, stretching from Chula Vista to Coronado to Vista. The community newspapers will operate with separate staffs supported by the U-T San Diego newsroom. The staff members that produce the Rancho Santa Fe Review will continue in their current roles, Pfeiffer said. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. Lynch said the U-T can help the recently acquired papers grow by backing them with infrastructure such as IT support, ad services and delivery efficiencies that would be expensive for the papers individually.

The Buzz: Roundabouts vs. Traffic Lights – the Matchup RSF resident plans to put measure on next year’s BY ANN BOON, RSF ASSOCIATION BOARD PRESIDENT Back in August, I d e s c r i b e d Ann Boon the latest developments in the ongoing study of potential roundabouts in Rancho Santa Fe. If you are new to our Village and are not acquainted with the past 10 years of history, the short story is that commuter traffic on Del Dios Highway has been a concern in Rancho Santa Fe for many years. In an effort to address the traffic problem, several years ago the RSF Association Board of Directors looked at a variety of solutions, including the use of roundabouts at three intersections along Del Dios: El Camino Del Norte, La Valle Plateada, and Via de la Valle. At the conclusion of the preliminary design phase for the roundabouts, the County agreed to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to analyze potential impacts (and benefits) asso-

ciated with the use of roundabouts at the three intersections listed above. An EIR was utilized in order to analyze alternative types of intersection controls such as the use of traffic signals. The County of San Diego completed work on the EIR earlier this year. Although the EIR analyzed the design of the roundabouts, and how roundabouts would perform as compared to traffic signals, it did not contain designs for traffic signals at the three intersections. When the Association board held a public meeting on the roundabouts in February of this year, in response to member comments, we directed staff to work with the County and to solicit proposals for the design of traffic signals at each of the three intersections. Once the designs for signalized intersections have been completed, they can be evaluated alongside the designs for the roundabouts as to impacts on adjacent properties, community character, and the overall aesthetic of the intersection. In addition, the board

ballot to expand California’s Legislature BY JOE TASH A Rancho Santa Fe man has revived his proposal to expand California’s Legislature to 12,000 members in an effort to reduce the influence of campaign contributions in state politics. Under the proposed ballot initiative put forward by John Cox, a CPA and attorney who moved to San Diego County from Chicago in 2011, each member of the state Senate would represent a district of no more than 10,000 people, while Assembly districts would include some 5,000 residents. “We know that California is on a bad trajectory here,” said Cox. “We think the neighborhood legislature is only way to bring the power back to the people and away from campaign funders.” The idea behind the plan, which was inspired by the 400-member New Hampshire Legislature, is for legislative districts to be small enough that candidates could campaign doorto-door, and would not need loads of campaign cash to

ate districts would be carved into 100 neighborhood or sub-districts. The 100 members of each larger legislative district would elect one representative to go to Sacramento as part of a working committee that would function similarly to the existing Legislature. However, before the governor could sign a bill into law, the full 12,000-member Legislature would have to approve it on an up-ordown vote taken over the Internet, Cox said. Neighborhood legislators would be paid $1,000 per year, while the 120 working committee members would earn $50,000 per year. The state’s 120 legislators currently earn $90,526, which will increase to $95,291 on Dec. 1. Legislative candidates could still spend money if they wanted to, said Cox, but the playing field would be much more level for those who simply wanted to campaign by meeting faceto-face with people in their neighborhood districts.

compete. Cox — who controls a multimillion dollar real estate portfolio and provides financial advice to wealthy clients — said he is willing to put up to $500,000 of his own money into the initiative, and will need to raise even more to support the measure on the November 2014 state ballot. Surveys show that Californians have become jaded about the state’s political process, convinced that campaign contributors control what happens in Sacramento, Cox said. Voters are so apathetic that only about 50 percent of those eligible to vote in San Diego and Orange counties actually register, he said. “Then when they do register, they don’t come out to vote, they stay home. Surveys tell us the reason is they don’t think their votes count,” he said. The Neighborhood Legislature Reform Act would amend the California Constitution to change the way the state’s laws are made. Each of the existing 80 Assembly districts and 40 Sen-

established an Intersection Study Committee to work with staff and the engineering consultant to evaluate the designs for traffic signals. The designs will be available for member review and comment at a future public meeting. To their credit, the County has agreed to temporarily delay action on the EIR, in order to incorporate addition input from the Association. The members of the new Intersection Study Committee (ISC) are: Richard Carlson, Bill Hinchy, Ken Dunford, Philippe Charat, Lorraine Kent, Rochelle Putnam and Phillip Wilkinson. Ultimately, the Committee will forward their recommendation to the Association board in the first half of next year. The Committee’s first meeting is currently scheduled for Dec. 6, at the Association offices. As are all committee meetings, the ISC meetings will be open to all residents. Committee agendas are posted on the Association bulletin board. Check with the Association office if you would like further information.

Jenny Craig adds author to her accomplished resume with new children’s book ‘I believe in Genevieve’ •Book encourages children to believe in themselves BY DIANE Y. WELCH Famed for her global nutrition and weight loss franchise centers, founder Jenny Craig, has added a new title to her resume: children’s book author. Craig’s book “I believe in Genevieve” — just released by Regnery Kids, a subsidiary of Regnery Publishing, Inc. — was launched at a lively champagne reception and book signing event at Warwick’s book store in La Jolla on Oct. 24. Warwick’s events coordinator, Julie Slavinsky, introduced Craig to a packed audience. Retelling her early days, being the youngest child of six born in New Orleans during the Great Depression, Craig told the rapt audience about the inspiration for the book that encourages children to achieve their own greatness. Its storyline draws upon Craig’s own life. Genevieve, the main character, is based on Craig who loved to ride horses as a child and who uses her given name for the story. Craig later changed her name to Jenny because she was not enamored with her French roots, she said. Genevieve’s sister is Trudy, who is Craig’s actual sister, and Craig’s horse trainer, John Sadler, is also the trainer in the book. The horse in the story, Candy Ride, is Jenny’s (and her late husband Sidney’s) thoroughbred stallion who was the winner of the 2003 Pacific Classic, breaking the track record at that time. The idea to write a children’s book was suggested by a friend of Craig’s daughter who works at Regnery Publishing, said Craig in a later interview. “I hadn’t thought of it before but when we talked about the idea I realized that I could get some positive messages across in the book using language that children understand.” Before Craig committed herself to the project she was shown work samples of the illustrator who would partner with her on the book. “I could not believe the talent of Wendy Edelson, the artist, and the fact that she is self taught,” said Craig. “Her work is absolutely beautiful, and when I saw her illustrations I immediately said, ‘I will absolutely do this!’” Edelson’s illustrations bring to life the message of “believing in yourself,” which uses Genevieve’s determination to compete in a horse show at the Rancho Paseana riding camp – based on Craig’s horse ranch in Rancho Santa Fe – as

the vehicle. Genevieve takes the necessary steps to be competitive by nourishing herself with healthy foods and keeping active by taking care of Candy Ride, who also grows fit and strong. By the end of the summer, win or lose, Genevieve learns the valuable lesson that by believing in herself she is already a winner. This was a message followed by Craig her entire life. She heard it repeatedly as a child. “My dad used to sit me on his knee and he would often say to me, ‘You can be anything and do anything if you are willing to work for it and if you have passion for it,’ which means the same as believing in yourself,” Craig said. In this way parents can be very powerful in helping their kids to develop a positive self-image, she added. Then joked, “I always said, ‘Gee I’m glad my dad didn’t tell me I could fly because I might have jumped off a building to try.’” “I Believe in Genevieve” also serves as a fun, healthyliving guide for children with simple nutritious recipes and exercise plans included in the book’s pages. The book may be purchased at Warwick’s in La Jolla and from online bookstores (such as amazon. com) or from the publisher at www.regnery.com

Local resident ‘Sam the Cooking Guy’ hosts safari group in South Africa BY KRISTINA HOUCK Local resident Sam Zien regularly shows locals how to cook simple recipes, but now several South African students know how to make his American sliders. A visit to a cooking school was one of Zien’s stops on a 10-day excursion through South Africa with his wife and a small group of fans. “When I say that my heart is still warm from that day, I truly mean it,” said Zien, also known as “Sam the Cooking Guy.” Zien taught students how to make mini burgers with a fried egg, bacon, crumbled blue cheese and grilled onions. Then he and his fellow group members prepped food and helped the 18- and 19 year-old students make a variety of local dishes, including chakhchoukha, a lamb stew. In addition to preparing the “hearty” food, Zien spent time talking with the students and answering their questions. Eziko Cooking School is dedicated to teaching underprivileged youth how to prepare for a career in food. To help raise money to support their tuition, the students created a restaurant out of shipping containers where they serve traditional African cuisine to the local community and to visitors. They asked Zien many questions, including how to stay motivated to follow their dreams — a question he found “fascinating.” Zien used to work in the biotech industry before leaving his job to pursue television. His cooking segments on San Diego TV became an Emmy Award-winning half-hour show. He’s since launched another series on Discovery’s Health channel and written three cookbooks. “I changed what I did,” Zien said. “I reversed my position in the ocean, turned my boat around and went another way. I could see it in their eyes — they wanted that.” The visit to the school in the Langa Township was just one of many stops on the trip, which was organized by Aardvark, a Solana Beach-based company that offers customized itineraries to 15 African countries. The idea for the trip came after the Ziens met the owner of Aardvark at the San Diego Bay Wine and Food Festival last year. Zien has hosted three cooking-themed programs on cruises to Mexico and Alaska, but said he was ready for a

Courtesy photos new adventure and his wife, Kelly, had always wanted to visit Africa. “Aardvark turned out to be absolutely amazing,” Zien said. “They put together just this incredible trip. “I wasn’t expecting what I found there.” After the itinerary was finalized and five others registered for the “Savory South Africa: Food, Wine and Wildlife,” the couple visited family in London for three days before flying with the rest of the group members on Oct. 11 to Cape Town in South Africa. The trip began in Cape Town where the group toured the area, from the penguins at Boulder’s Bay to the top of Table Mountain. Because the trip focused on the country’s food and wine, the group also enjoyed wine tastings at famed estates in Stellenbosch and Franschhoek, visits to chocolatiers and cheese makers, and a meal at the Tasting Room. The group’s final stop was the Tanda Tula Safari Camp in the private Timbavati Reserve on the edge of Kruger National Park. During the four-day safari, the group spotted elephants, giraffes, lions, leopards, hyenas, zebras, warthogs and other wild animals. “It’s everything in the “Lion King” that’s the “Circle of Life” — right there in front of

From the cuisine to the wildlife, Zien said he enjoyed the entire experience, especially getting to know the people of South Africa as well as his fellow travelers. “The spirit of the South African people is just wonderful,” Zien said. “And it was cool to see other people enjoying stuff and to hear their viewpoints. It heightens your own excitement. “It was really special, really special. I’d do another hosted trip in a heartbeat.” For more information about Sam the Cooking Guy, visit www.thecookingguy.com.

‘America’s Most Wanted’ host John Walsh talks Internet safety with local teens and parents BY KRISTINA HOUCK San Diego teen Steven Liu jumped off the bridge in front of Otay Ranch High School in Chula Vista on Nov. 1. Friends said the 17-year-old was a victim of bullying. Some school officials said they don’t think bullying was the reason he committed suicide. Bullying and cyberbullying has become a hot topic, and was one of many issues “America’s Most Wanted” host John Walsh discussed during a “Girls World Expo” seminar Nov. 3 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. “I’m urging you to sit down and talk to your kids about bullying and make them feel comfortable that they should do something before they get into the period of where they want to hurt themselves or hurt somebody else,” Walsh said to the room full of parents with their daughters. From cyberbullying to sexting, Walsh discussed Internet safety during the seminar, which was sponsored by Cox Communications. He also asked a panel of four high school students questions about their Internet use. Internet use is doubling every two years. The average household has six devices connected to the Internet, according to a survey conducted by Cox and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Walsh encouraged parents to talk to their children about Internet safety, discussing what they do online and what they shouldn’t do. He explained that conversations about Internet

John Walsh with the panel at the Nov. 3 seminar held at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. Courtesy photo safety are more common today. In 2005, 1 in 4 teens said their parents talked to them about staying safe online. Today, 85 percent of teens said their parents talk to them about online safety, according to the survey. Still, according to the survey, 34 percent of tweens have lied to their parents about what they’ve done online. “We’re not trying to ruin your lives,” Walsh said. “We’re not trying to make sure that you never meet a boy or go out anywhere or do anything adventurous. We just want to make sure you’re safe.” Formerly a hotel builder, Walsh became an advocate for victims of violent crimes and the host of “America’s Most Wanted” after his 6-year-old son, Adam, was abducted and murdered in 1981. The television program ran for 25 years, and helped capture more than 1,200 fugitives and locate more than 50 missing children, including Elizabeth Smart. “It changed our lives forever, but all the things that we’ve been able to accomplish and change and try to do as we fought back was because people like you cared,” Walsh said. “I want to thank you for all the support for all these years. I said it every week on ‘America’s Most Wanted,’ you can make a difference. And so many of you have helped me make a difference.” Walsh continues to make a difference by being the spokesperson for Cox’s, “Take Charge!” Launched eight years ago, the initiative aims to teach parents and children about Internet safety. “I have three kids — I had four kids,” Walsh said. “I know you’re all immortal. I know you’re all bulletproof. I know you never make mistakes. I know you don’t think you’re going to die. That’s why we, as parents, have to saddle up and say, ‘Look, here’s where the dangers are.’” For more information about Take Charge!, visit www. cox.com/takecharge.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Local owners win Breeders’ Cup races and rank among national leaders BY JULIE SARNO Racehorses owned by local residents won three of the 30th Breeders’ Cup World Championship races at Santa Anita on Nov. 2. Two of the runners captured a second Breeders’ Cup victory. The two-day 14-race Breeders’ Cup was held at the Arcadia track for the second year in a row and seventh time since its first running in 1984. All are prestigious Grade 1 races. The 2014 Breeders’ Cup will be run at Santa Anita as well. The first locally-owned runner to make it to the Winner’s Circle was Mizdirection, winner of the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint, the seventh race on the Saturday program. She is owned by Del Mar resident Bill Strauss in partnership with Jungle Racing of sportscaster Jim Rome, Nish, Grohs, MSK Racing Ventures LLC and Beljak. Bill and his wife, Margie, were among the group in the Winners Circle. Mizdirection recorded her second victory in the GEICO Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint. The now-5-year-old mare is a twotime winner of the race, having won the prestigious Grade 1 event in 2012. The $1 million race drew only two female runners in a 14-horse field. The other filly in the race, Reneesgotzip, finished second. This victory gave winning jockey Mike Smith his third 2013 Breeders’ Cup win and a record 20th win overall. Mizdirection has now earned over $1.7 million for her owners. As the group races horses but does not retain them for breeding purposes, they entered the mare in the Nov. 4 Fasig-Tipton sale in Lexington, Kentucky. A daughter of the stallion Mizzen Mast, Mizdirection was recently sold for $2.7 million. “She loves it here,” said trainer Mike Puype after the race. “She loves Santa Anita. She’s seven-for-seven on the turf. She’s really tenacious, but it’s really quite sad that she is getting on a plane tomorrow and heading for the sales (in Kentucky.)” Saturday’s eighth race, the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, also went to a locally-owned runner. Rancho Santa Fe residents Gary and Mary West won their first-ever Breeders’ Cup race, the G1 Juvenile, with New Year’s Day. Thoroughbred owners since the 1980s, the Wests had never before won a Breeders’ Cup race. The Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, for 2-year-old male runners, attracted a full field of 14. The winner receives 55 percent of the $2 million prize. As dictated by the rules, 5 percent of the owner’s share goes to trainer Bob Baffert and five percent to jockey Martin Garcia. Baffert and his wife, Jill, have a residence in Del Mar. New Year’s Day had only raced twice before the Breeders Cup, both times at Del Mar this past summer. The son of Street Cry finished third in his Aug. 17 debut and won a maiden special weight event on Aug. 31. New Year’s Day was purchased for $425,000 at the 2012 Keeneland September Yearling Sale. Look for this colt on the Kentucky Derby trail next spring. The victory in the Juvenile has catapulted the Wests into third place in earnings among Thoroughbred owners in North America. The West Stable has earned $4,390,686 in 2013 through Nov. 3. Their previous best was in 2012 when they ranked 12th at year’s end with stable earnings of just over $3.2 million. Two races later, trainer Baffert was back in the Winner’s Circle when Saturday’s 10th race, the Xpressbet Breeders’ Cup Sprint was won by Secret Circle. Secret Circle is owned by Mike Pegram, Karl Watson and Paul Weitman. Secret Circle also is a repeat Breeders’ Cup winner, having won the inaugural Juvenile Sprint in 2011 as a 2-year-old. Pegram owns a home in Del Mar. The Sprint carries a purse of $1.5 million. The winning owners collect $850,000, and, once again, the trainer and jockey Garcia each receive 5 percent. Secret Circle is a 4-year-old son of Eddington. Pegram owned earlier Breeders’ Cup winner Silverbulletday, winner of the 1998 Juvenile Fillies and, with Watson and Weitman, campaigned two-time Sprint (2007 and 2008) winner Midnight Lute. All were trained by Baffert. Baffert was the only trainer to saddle two Breeders’ Cup race winners this year. After the Championship races, Baffert currently ranks second in purses earned in 2013 by runners he trains with $14,029,072, behind New York-based Todd Pletcher, with $22,741,575. Baffert’s two Breeders’ Cup winners this year bring his total of Cup winners to 10, second only to trainer D. Wayne Lukas, who has 19.

Rancho Santa Fe School holding Fall Costume and Prop Drive through Nov. 8

NBC’s Ann Curry interviews RSF’s John Rowe and Lale Labuko Rancho Santa Fe resident John Rowe (left) and Lale Labuko (right), co-founders of Omo Child, were recently interviewed by NBC’s Ann Curry (center) in New York for an upcoming special on their work. Omo Child is a nonprofit organization that provides a safe home and quality education for rescued mingi children. Mingi is the “ritualistic killing of infants and children believed to be cursed by tribes living in the remote Omo Valley region of Southwest Ethiopia. OMO CHILD’s mission is to provide a safe, nurturing home and quality education for rescued Mingi children.” (Also, see the story that ran in the RSF Review on Oct. 31: online, visit www.rsfreview.com). Under the working title “Omo Child” or “Children of the Omo,” Rowe and Labuko are also making a film that details the secretive, taboo practice that extends back generations among the tribes of Omo River valley. It also follows Rowe and Lale Labuko’s work to rescue mingi children and end the practice. For their advocacy work, the pair received the Lowell Thomas Award from the Explorers Club at a dinner on Oct. 26 in Washington, D.C. For more information, visit omochild.org. Courtesy photo

Young actor in Rancho Santa Fe lands RSF Education Foundation presents two roles in ‘Shrek the Musical’ ‘Brock Edwards Magic Show’

BY KRISTINA HOUCK From the gym mat to the theater stage, Jordi Bertran enjoys performing for others. That’s why the 12-year-old auditioned for not one but two parts in California Youth Conservatory’s upcoming “Shrek the Musical.” “I love showing the people in the audience how I can tell a story and how different people tell a story differently,” said Bertran, a seventh grader at The Rhoades School in Encinitas. Bertran portrays Young Shrek and Peter Pan in the musical, which is based on the 2001 DreamWorks film “Shrek.” He said his favorite scene is when Young Shrek escapes a mob and finds a swamp where he makes his home. He also enjoys the “upbeat” songs throughout the musical. “The songs are very catchy and fun,” Bertran said. “There’s music that you just want to get up and dance to.” Beginning with gymnastics when he was just 2 years old, Bertran has performed nearly his whole life. Now a level six gymnast, he also trains in taekwondo and plays the piano. Bertran started acting when he was in third grade. He played Boo Who in “Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas!” at The Old

Globe Theater. In the summer, he played Gavroche Thénardier, a boy who lives on the streets of Paris, in CYC’s Les Misérables. “For his age, he’s pretty talented,” said Shaun Evans, founder of CYC. “Our program tends to attract the cream of the crop around this town. He’s a standout.” Founded in 2003, the San Diego-based youth theater company hires professional performers and teachers to instruct the young actors. A three-time winner of the San Diego A-List award for “Best Theatre Group,” Evans said the company has been a trendsetter for other youth theaters in the coun-

“Our approach to training them is more rigorous than what they would get at other places,” Evans said. “Instead of treating them like they’re kids in theater, we treat them like actors who happen to be kids. Our expectations are very high.” “You learn something every time, every day,” Bertran added. “They’re the most professional youth theater group that I’ve ever participated in.” Produced and directed by Evans, “Shrek the Musical” features 44 cast members, ages 8 to 46. Giovanni Munguia plays Shrek, Evans portrays Donkey and Rebecca Myers plays Fiona. The production also features a fire-breathing dragon and a 15-piece live band. RSF resident Olivia Berger, a senior at Cathedral Catholic High School, will also be performing in the production. “Shrek is something that’s not just for kids, it’s for adults, too,” Bertran said. “It’s for the whole family.” “Shrek the Musical” runs Nov. 23-Dec. 1 at the Lyceum Theatre, 79 Horton Plaza, San Diego.

Local family raises funds to fight childhood cancer; Foundation named in honor of son BY KRISTINA HOUCK Max Mikulak was sitting in the nurse’s office, eating his lunch through a feeding tube, when a kindergartner came through the door in tears. The young girl had fallen on the playground and scraped her knees. Though just a year older and very sick, the first grader comforted the girl and gave her a hug. That’s how Melissa Mikulak remembers her son. “That’s the kind of kid he was,” said Mikulak. “He was very compassionate for others. Maybe it was because of all of the pain he had gone through himself.” Max died from neuroblastoma in 2008. Although he lost his four-year battle with the childhood cancer, his compassion lives on through Max’s Ring of Fire, a nonprofit organization Mikulak and her husband, Andy, founded after their son died at 7 years old. Through fundraisers such as the Run to Fight Children’s Cancer on Oct. 26 at NTC Park at Liberty Station, the organization supports innovative neuroblastoma research and clini-

Nearly 800 runners and walkers participated in the recent event, which was started by Phoenix-based Grand Canyon University two years ago and has since raised more than $200,000 to aid in the fight against childhood cancer. The 5K, one-mile family run and survivors’ walk raised funds for both Max’s Ring of Fire and The Ronan Thompson Foundation, another organization dedicated to finding a cure for neuroblastoma. “It was heartwarming to see all these people come together, but it was also heart wrenching that we even had to be there to try to raise money to fund research for childhood cancer because government doesn’t give enough and the big pharmaceuticals don’t give enough,” Mikulak said. Max’s Ring of Fire supports the Neuroblastoma and Medulloblastoma Translational Research Consortium. Led by

creativity

Dr. Giselle Sholler, the group of 18 universities and children’s hospitals is headquartered at the Helen Devos Children’s Hospital in Michigan and offers a nationwide network of childhood cancer clinical trials. Born on June 30, 2001, Max was diagnosed with stage IV, high-risk neuroblastoma in October 2004. After treatment, he relapsed in November 2006 and entered a trial in Vermont headed by Sholler. His disease diminished during the trial until there was just one tiny spot still evident on his spine. Unfortunately, the cancer aggressively returned in February 2008, and Max died on Aug. 31, 2008, only six days after starting second grade at Solana Highlands Elementary School. “We support [Sholler] with all the funds that we raise so that her clinical trials can be supported 100 percent in all the hospitals that carry them,” Mikulak said. “We try to fund relevant research so that other families, hopefully in the very near future, will not have to suffer the loss of a child. There’s truly no greater pain than losing a child.”

The organization’s largest fundraiser is Touch A Truck, a car show where children can touch and honk the horns of racecars, military vehicles, public safety vehicles and more. More than 6,000 people attended the fifth annual event and raised $67,000 in June. About 200 volunteers staffed the event, which a committee planned throughout the year, Mikulak said. She noted that the organization is always looking for more volunteers so Max’s Ring of Fire can fund even more research. In the U.S., about 13,000 children under the age of 21 are diagnosed with cancer every year. There are about 700 new cases of neuroblastoma in the U.S. every year. “When you think of the many it’s hard to act,” Mikulak said. “But when you think of one, it’s easy to be inspired.” For more information, visit www.maxsringoffire. org.

RSF Garden Club filling ‘Military Care Packages’ Nov. 11 — donations needed BY GINGER BORD, RSF GARDEN CLUB The Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club needs your help to honor our brave men and women who have responded to the call of duty and are overseas fighting for you, your children and grandchildren, for the future of our nation. We need to let them know they have not been forgotten and that we appreciate their sacrifice. With all the chaos in Washington D.C. over budget and healthcare it appears that the fact that we are still fighting a war, that our troops are far from home, away from family and living in dangerous conditions has been become “old news.” Monday, Nov. 11, is Veterans Day and for the third year the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club is coordinating a community-wide event to send care packages to our troops who are fighting for our freedom. The boxes will be packed on Veterans Day with toiletries, snacks, and comfort items. What we want from you are the items that the troops need and have requested. We need cash donations to pay for postage to send the boxes; each USPS flat rate box costs $13. These young men and women are in hostile countries, they are not near bases and the things requested are everyday items we take for granted. The boxes serve another purpose in that they represent offerings of appreciation from the people of our nation and community. A personal note from children and families makes an

Local teens host safe party and benefit— The Hallow — in a club-like atmosphere in RSF NOTE: SEE PHOTOS FROM THIS EVENT ON PAGE 22. BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe Community Center gym transformed into a club for costume-clad high schoolers on Nov. 1, complete with loud music from live Djs and body painting. The party, known as The Hallow, was entirely planned by local teens Noah Levinson and Savannah Phillips as a way to provide a safe party for under-agers to enjoy a club atmosphere. Noah, a junior at Canyon Crest Academy, and Savannah, a junior at Torrey Pines High School, have been friends since middle school, bonding over their shared love of music. Noah has been a DJ since he was 13 and Savannah has a passion for singing. The pair organized the party not just for fun — a portion of the proceeds from The Hallow will go toward Stand Up For Kids, an organization that helps homeless teens. “I’ve never done anything like this before, it was a completely unique experience,” Noah said of the event. “I never imagined that we would be able to put it all together and for it to turn out as cool as it did,” Savannah said. “It went off really well.” The idea for the event was set into motion when they were freshman, talking about how they were always too young to attend fun events and parties at clubs that often come with an over-18 or over-21 requirement. “Even though we’re under-age we still like to have fun and like to party, but we didn’t get to enjoy that same atmosphere of a club,” Noah said. Finding a venue was the first big step when they got serious about having the party; they weren’t able to find one the previous year. When Noah was able to secure the Community Center this year, the pair launched “full force” into planning, having six weeks to put it all together. “We just went for it,” said Savannah, who noted one of the hardest parts was publicity, making sure they could get the word out. They put together a Facebook page and recruited friends at other high schools to hand out flyers for their event. Their outreach campaign worked: At Friday night’s party, they had teens from Canyon Crest and Torrey Pines, San Dieguito Academy, Cathedral Catholic, La Costa Canyon, Carlsbad and Westview high schools. “We also had quite a large group from Rancho Bernardo,” Noah said. “ I was very pleased with the turnout because I wanted it to be not just our friend groups but for every-

‘Technology Stories’ conference to feature BALLOT Dr. Irwin M. Jacobs as keynote speaker continued from page 2 Congregation Beth El, in conjunction with the San Diego Chapter of the American Technion Society, recently announced that Dr. Irwin M. Jacobs, founding chairman and CEO Emeritus of Qualcomm Incorporated, will be the keynote speaker at the upcoming “Technology Stories” conference on Sunday, Nov. 10. The purpose of the conference will be to focus on “Israel’s Influence in the U.S. and San Diego” and feature several panelists in addition to Dr. Jacobs, including: •Professor Craig Gotsman — founding director of the Joan and Irwin Jacobs Technion-Cornell Innovation Institute (JTCII); •Roy Ronen — University California San Diego (UCSD) Computational Genetics researcher and Israeli PhD candidate; •Barbara Starr — Semantic Technology expert and National Science Foundation grant recipient working directly with Israeli companies; and •Chaim Avraham — an Israeli chemist specializing in soil and water science with world-wide expertise. “We are thrilled to offer the public this exciting opportunity to hear the behind-the- scenes ‘technology stories’ from our esteemed panel of speakers,” said Hillel Katzeff, Congregation Beth El Israel Committee Member and Conference Organizer. “The impact of innovative technology with ties to Israel is truly unique.” The free conference will be held Sunday, November 10, 2013 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at Congregation Beth El located at 8660 Gilman Drive in La Jolla. The public is welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served.

one to enjoy. When I saw people walking through the door that I’d never seen before it was very exciting.” Noah and Savannah tried to stay within budget for their party and still hire professional DJs. They were able to book three who donated a portion of their fees: Mr. Dee Jay, DJ Ala and DJ Ayla Simone. “It was great to see everyone dancing,” Savannah said. Noah, who has been a DJ for local sweet 16 parties, bar and bat mitzvahs and some weddings, served as the event’s fourth DJ. “It was incredible,” Noah said of his set. The party also had Eyemax Threedee, who did fun airbrush bodywork on guests. Philly Soft Pretzel Company donated refreshments after the intended vendor pulled out at the last minute. Savannah’s brother helped serve as security, and Savannah and Noah’s moms provided extra supervision at the event as well. “We’re really grateful for our mothers, they were so supportive of us and dedicated a lot of time to help us out,” Savannah said. “We’re really grateful for the venue, as well, for letting us fill it with a bunch of teenagers.” For the last couple months, Noah has been interning at Surf Dog Records and planning this event — as well as being around the recording industry — “opened new gateways of ideas” for him. He said he really learned how to plan, how to speak to people and really got a grasp of what is possible. “The hardest thing was that there were so many pieces that had to come together. In the end they all webbed together and intertwined,” Noah said. “It was a lot of stress but it really paid off in the end,” Savannah said. The positive feedback they have heard has encouraged them to think about a second event. Noah hopes they might be able to put on another party during spring break and he hopes this time they might be able to donate 100 percent of their proceeds to charity. “It was a fun event,” Noah said. “We learned a lot from the challenges we had that will make the next one even better.” “I think [Noah’s] a really amazing DJ and if he wants to go into that or event planning he would be successful,” Savannah said. “He’s really organized. And he knows what kids want.”

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Local native completes 75-day wilderness expedition in Australia BY KRISTINA HOUCK Having grown up locally, Chase Matthews is familiar with sandy beaches. Now, the 22-year-old has mastered the steep-sided mountain ranges, dry tropical grasslands and tidal rivers of Australia. With the National Outdoor Leadership School, he backpacked and canoed across the wild Kimberley region of Western Australia last spring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I loved it,â&#x20AC;? said Matthews, who graduated from Canyon Crest Academy and is now a business senior at Chapman University in Orange. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was definitely tough at times and was one of the most difficult things Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever done, but it was a great experience.â&#x20AC;? The 75-day wilderness expedition began in early March and ended in mid-May. Matthews, along with three guides and 16 other students, started on the Drysdale River. For five weeks, the group paddled and portaged canoes and gear down the remote river, learning outdoor living and canoeing skills. Students also took turns and co-lead their groups, learning risk management and leadership skills. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You really learn from it,â&#x20AC;? Matthews said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get a different view of the world when you get out there with nothing but your gear, tools and the stuff that you have to survive on.â&#x20AC;? After the group got to their destination, Matthews said, they dropped off their canoes and hiked back to the station where they started. From the gorges and grasslands, to the watering holes and waterfalls, students explored the terrain and learned about local cattle stations during the backpacking session. During the last week of the hiking session, the group split in two and set off on student expeditions, without their instructors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was sort of our final exam â&#x20AC;&#x201D; being on our own and using all the skills weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned like navigation and first aid,â&#x20AC;? Matthews said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was like the last hurrah before we got back to the station.â&#x20AC;? On the first day, Matthew led his group about seven kilometers to a watering hole.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only way to experience it is to do this trip and have an open mind,â&#x20AC;? Matthews said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I went out there for the first few weeks, I had a lot of trouble. But after getting used to it, I loved it and I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to leave.â&#x20AC;? For more information about the National Outdoor Leadership School, visit www.nols.edu.

San Diego Bay Wine & Food Festival to be held Nov. 18-24 Chase Matthews (second from left) on his wilderness expedition. Courtesy photo â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was probably the greatest moment for me, just because it was a way of showing that I was able to complete my course and I was able to go out on my own,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just beautiful out there. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so far away from everything and really quiet. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surreal being around nothing, really.â&#x20AC;? To conclude the expedition, Matthews and his group explored the Bardi homelands for a week, and learned about the Aboriginal people who live in and around Broome, Australia. Matthews was inspired to participate in a wilderness expedition after his older brother completed a course several years ago. He took a semester off to go on the trip. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He really liked it,â&#x20AC;? Matthews said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When he got back and told me about it, I became interested in doing it.â&#x20AC;? Based in Wyoming, the National Outdoor Leadership School is a nonprofit outdoor education school dedicated to teaching environmental ethics, technical outdoor skills, safety and judgment, and leadership on extended wilderness expeditions. A water polo player in high school and frequent camper, Matthews has always enjoyed outdoor and physical activities. He encouraged others to learn more about the National Outdoor Leadership School and take the semester-long course.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

R. Roger Rowe School students shine in writing class On behalf of the English Language Arts team at R. Roger Rowe School, Darcy Gleisberg shared the excerpts below with this newspaper from stand-out student pieces at the completion of the first units of study for sixth, seventh and eighth grade.

An excerpt from “1,829 Miles,” a fictional narrative by Audrey B., eighth grader If you’ve ever been through the back woods in Milwaukee, you’d know what I’m talking about. Standing under those billowing clouds of ephemeral stars, bare as bones and white as the milk in a cereal bowl, just the spark of a flashlight might as well as been a wildfire. Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a mere 1,829 miles from Phoenix, Arizona. Milwaukee, Wisconsin, a mere 1,829 miles away from my home. It was like going from a blazing inferno of heat to a cold only matched by the glazed eyes of the deer perched as trophies over my father’s hunting shed, like watchdogs over his prized musket nuzzled in the lingering smell of gunpowder. That’s why we moved here, anyway: Daddy was a hunter. In his mind, however, he was a businessman, and that’s why he said we moved here to this ghost-town as empty as radio static, that worthless job. “I’m going to go there someday,” a voice broadcasted in a matter-of-fact manner over my father’s telescope, alert and fixated towards the dramatic sliver of a moon. “To the moon, I mean. What do you think it’s like up there? I bet it’s made of cheese, Dad said it was. Isn’t that right, Iris? Isn’t it made of cheese?” Gabriel. My five-year-old brother, Gabriel. The one with the deep, brown teddy bear eyes and a syrupy smile, who acts like the world never did him wrong. Oh, but it did, it took Mom. It took her in a car accident, and there we were, standing in the hospital corridors, waiting. She was fragile, like a broken china doll, and perched in her chair in a numb, emotionless state as she lived out her final hours in the creepily sterile room, flowers from her precious rose bed perched by her bedside in a pale, chipped vase. White walls, crimson roses, indigo tears. I felt my hands clench into white-knuckled fists, as if I was trying to hang onto something to stop me from falling, but I wasn’t falling, I was infuriated, plain old outraged that he was stupid even to still believe in such trivial things anymore, it was just beyond me. An excerpt from “Gone Forever,” a personal narrative by Seraphine B., sixth grader I was filled with cold fear. My mouth was dry and parched from calling my dog’s name. With a twinge of regret, I stumbled up the stairs. As I lay in bed, twenty, thirty, forty minutes passed before my eyes started feeling heavy. I looked out the window into the dark. The sound of crickets chirping comforted me. Somewhere, a frog croaked. A feeling of confidence lay over me like a warm feather blanket. Deanza would turn up in the morning, I was sure of it. But like a tiny needle pricking the back of my neck, a feeling of worry still remained. What if she didn’t come back? Please let her be okay, I prayed silently. “Seraphine. Seraphine, wake up. Deanza’s back, but — ” I didn’t even let my mom finish her sentence. I threw my blankets back and bounded down the stairs, not even bothering to put my contacts in. I yanked open the back door and ran to Deanza’s kennel. “Deanza! You’re-” I stopped short. What used to be my beautiful dog now lay in front of me, motionless. Scratches ran here and there along her back and sides. But what really filled me with sadness was her face. Half of it was torn away, taking her right eye with it. I gasped and turned away. I wanted to run back to my room, bury my face in my pillow and go to sleep, make this all a dream, nothing but a horrible dream. Instead, I forced myself to look at my dog. I’d thought she was dead, but really her left eye was open and she was breathing. Maybe she had a chance! “It’s okay, my little puppy, you’ll be fine,” I said in a soothing voice. Deanza lifted her head and whined softly. As if that action had sucked all the energy out of her, she lay her head back down and sighed deeply. “First Snow,” a poem by Sawyer S., seventh grader

Local Foundation helps secure grant to save endangered bird species in the Galapagos Islands BY JOE TASH If scientists are able to save endangered bird species in the Galapagos Islands from extinction, a charitable foundation with local ties will deserve a share of the credit. The International Community Foundation recently announced that a $600,000, two-year grant was awarded to the Charles Darwin Foundation, a private, nonprofit conservation organization based in the Galapagos Islands, to conduct research aimed at protecting native birds from threats posed by invasive, non-native species. The ICF, which is headed by local resident Richard Kiy and based in National City, worked with the Darwin Foundation to secure the grant from the Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. The money will allow scientists in the Galapagos and at U.S. universities to study the impacts of Philornis downsi, a non-native fly, on the unique bird species found in the Galapagos archipelago, a chain of islands some 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador in South America. The islands were a primary source of inspiration for naturalist Charles Darwin as he formulated his theories of evolution in the groundbreaking work, “On The Origin of Species.” “The more we can do to save this World Heritage biodiversity site… and protects its flora and fauna, the better,” said Kiy, president and CEO of the ICF, which will celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2014. At least five small land bird species in the islands are facing extinction, with one species, the mangrove finch, down to only 80 individuals, according to the Darwin Foundation. The invasive fly species lays its eggs in the finches’ nests, where the larvae attack nestlings and suck their blood, often causing their death, said Swen Lorenz, executive director of the Darwin Foundation. In a telephone interview from his office at the Charles Darwin Research Station on Santa Cruz Island, Lorenz said no bird species unique to the Galapagos has ever gone extinct. But land bird populations have declined significantly in recent years. “Very fundamentally, the grant is aimed at helping us understand the factors that are causing the decline in land birds in the Galapagos,” Lorenz said. Researchers at a number of institutions, including the San Diego Zoo, will help develop techniques to protect

Richard Kiy, president and CEO of International Community Foundation. Courtesy photo young birds from parasites such as the invasive fly species. For example, scientists are studying the use of highly selective natural enemies to suppress the fly, and methods of disrupting fly mating patterns. The $600,000 grant represents a large sum to the Darwin Foundation, which runs on an annual budget of about $3 million generated by donations, Lorenz said. “This is a very significant grant for us,” he said. Some 180,000 tourists visit the islands each year, in addition to their permanent population of about 25,000 residents, Lorenz said. While tourism supports research and conservation efforts, it also poses problems, such as invasive plant and animal species hitching rides on supply ships and airplanes. California ranks fifth among U.S. states in terms of the number of residents who travel to the Galapagos each year.

“Do come and visit Galapagos,” Lorenz said, but urged visitors to book their trips with companies certified for using sustainable practices such as renewable energy and recycling. The Darwin Foundation started working with the ICF about a year ago, both as a legal and financial conduit of donations from the United States, and as a means of reaching a larger pool of potential donors, Lorenz said. The ICF’s mission is to expand American giving to international organizations, with a focus on Mexico and Latin America, said Kiy. The ICF disburses some $5 million in grants each year, primarily in the areas of environment and conservation, health and education. The ICF checks out grant recipients to make sure they are using donated funds appropriately, and also serves as a vehicle to allow U.S. donors to make tax-deductible contributions to foreign nonprofits, Kiy said. The organization is an intermediary that links donors with worthy overseas organizations, he said. Among its projects, said Kiy, is helping to preserve hundreds of thousands of acres of land surrounding San Ignacio Lagoon on the Sea of Cortez in Baja, Mexico, the birthing grounds of the California gray whale; providing scholarships to assist schoolchildren in Mexico; and reducing the spread of tuberculosis along the U.S.-Mexico border. “We’re about connecting people in communities to make a difference,” Kiy said. Kiy said his work has also had a positive impact on his family, including wife Monica and sons Derek and Daniel, both students at Canyon Crest Academy. He has brought his children with him on trips to visit various nonprofits, including an expedition to an island off the coast of Ensenada, where researchers were studying great white sharks. Kiy and his younger son even went down into a shark cage to meet the research subjects first-hand. “I feel very honored and blessed to work with so many amazing nonprofits and community donors around the world,” Kiy said.

U-T continued from page 1 “I think that so many of these newspapers, if they stand on their own, are going to have a tough time existing three, four, five years from now,” Lynch said. “This gives us such a strong base of operations here in San Diego, we’re going to have a very strong company for years to come.” Pfeiffer agreed, adding, “With the resources of U-T San Diego ownership, we believe we can be more effective than ever in serving our local communities. We look forward to expanding our reach and building upon our brand of news.” Alan Mutter, a media consultant and teacher at the University of California, Berkeley, said the move allows the U-T to reach the sweet spot in the industry: publishing news and advertising that is targeted at highly concentrated local communities. The trick will be for each weekly to remain authentic, he said, noting that readers must see that it is still covering the

The U-T isn’t the only major metropolitan newspaper to own weeklies in its home region. The Orange County Register operates 23 community newspapers. Mainstreet Communications LLC formed in 2009 when the ownership of the La Jolla Light, Del Mar Times and Solana Beach Sun merged with the group that owned the Rancho Santa Fe Review and Carmel Valley News. Mainstreet was owned by two private equity firms — The Brookside Group, of Greenwich, Conn., and Housatonic Part-

ners of San Francisco. Lynch said community papers such as the La Jolla Light, Rancho Santa Fe Review, Carmel Valley News, Del Mar Times and Solana Beach Sun are largely supported by real estate ads and businesses that need to reach only one or two ZIP codes. He said the U-T is considering adding an automotive section to each of the papers for more advertising opportunities. The eight weekly newspapers have a total circulation of 99,431 copies. The Mainstreet Communications purchase is the second acquisition of a local news organization since U-T Publisher “Papa” Doug Manchester acquired The San Diego Union-Tribune in November 2011. In October 2012, the U-T purchased the North County Times from Lee Enterprises for $11.95 million. That paper has since been integrated into the U-T. But Lynch said the eight MainStreet newspapers would remain independently operated.

PROJECT continued from page 1 flood zone. In addition, the project includes a 1,000-foot special events rail platform at the Del Mar Fairgrounds and two miles of track improvements, including the addition of 1.7 miles of new double track. SANDAG held an informational meeting on Jan. 22 and an open house on Oct. 30 to discuss and answer questions about the project. In addition to e-blasts, Culp noted SANDAG distributed two project newsletters to more than 4,000 residents and businesses along the project area. Still, some community members don’t feel that their concerns are being heard. “Many of us feel that the fate of this project was predetermined before we got here,” said Bill Michalsky, who co-chairs the ad hoc committee with Nancy Fisher. “The worst-case scenario for taxpayers is we fund a project that is totally unnecessary,” said Betsy Winsett, an ad hoc committee member. “The worst-case scenario for us in Del Mar and neigh-

boring communities is that we have a rarely-used platform degrading the beauty of our environment and the quality of life for many years to come.” The council formed the committee in January to gain a complete understanding of the project, identify issues and problems, and identify and prioritize mitigation measures. Michalsky said the committee requested ridership data from SANDAG, but they never received the information. To offer and support better solutions, he said committee members need this information. They also need to know which special events would require use of the platform, he added. On behalf of the committee, Michalsky said members have concerns about noise and visual impacts from the double tracking and bridge, but most concerns are with the proposed platform and the impacts from lights, traffic, security and noise, especially from train horns and announcements. “The train tracks are there and the trestles are there. Changes to those aren’t as impactful, perhaps, because the elevation is go-

ing to happen,” Michalsky said. “But this platform is something that doesn’t exist in the community today, and it doesn’t serve our community. It serves visitors. That’s not a bad thing, but we believe it can be taken down a size.” To share the city’s concerns and possibly reduce any negative impacts, city staff, committee members and council liaisons will draft a letter and submit it to SANDAG this month. “I really am proud of the community for digging into this, figuring out what are going to be the problems,” Mayor Terry Sinnott said. “I appreciate the work so far, but we’ve got more work to do. We’ve got to really work with SANDAG to try to get some of these mitigations.” With the project still in an early design stage, SANDAG is currently working on a number of technical studies to support an environmental assessment, which is expected to be available for public review in April 2014. A second open house will also be held at that time. For more information about the project, visit keepsandiegomoving.com.

Del Mar’s Searsucker opens with focus on families BY KELLEY CARLSON hen Searsucker opened in Del Mar Highlands Town Center this summer, the idea was to create an atmosphere that was better suited to the community than its predecessor, Burlap. Burlap (like Searsucker, a member of Brian Malarkey and James Brennan’s Enlightened Hospitality Group) had evolved into a bar scene, and there wasn’t much separating the diners from the social drinkers. “We’re in a neighborhood in the suburbs; we’re trying to cater to families,” said Chef de Cuisine Andy “Dizzle” Philips. So while there is still a bar at Searsucker, it’s tucked into the side of the restaurant, and the main dining room is now the focus. Similar in style to the other Searsucker locations in downtown San Diego; Scottsdale, Ariz.; and Austin, Texas; the Del Mar site incorporates round lights, ropes and antlers into its decor — a nod to Malarkey’s penchant for the West — along with the signature “Eat” signs. Searsucker Del Mar is the first to offer a kids menu, which ranges from a simple kale-based salad with tomato and “rodeo dressing” (aka ranch) to chicken meatballs. The meals are accompanied by a Cookie Monster Sundae. In the 300-seat restaurant, a private dining room is enclosed by glass so guests can enjoy a quieter experience, yet still observe all the activity. In the back of the establishment is a covered patio, where children can feed koi and groups often convene to celebrate special occasions. And in the bar — which has a newly added skylight — patrons can share bites at the community tables, gather around the fire pit, or lounge in couches while taking advantage of happy hour or Monday Night Football specials. Things kick up a notch with live

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story.

■ This week’s recipe:

Searsucker’s Crab Cakes entertainment from 4:30 to 7 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays. The music genres encompass everything from blues and rock to classical and flamenco. Philips said he created the adult menu borrowing ideas from the Searsucker sites in San Diego and Austin, but with more of a surf-and-turf theme overall, paying homage to the nearby racetrack and the coastline. The guests’ dinner experience often begins when servers clad in searsucker aprons deliver small bites such as Cheddar Puffers or appetizers that include the skewered Farm Bird Lollipops, a blend of chicken and chorizo covered in a spicy sauce with bleu cheese crumbles; or mussels that are soaked in a beer broth with rabe and tomato. Or perhaps a patron might prefer a watermelon and mixed greens salad sprinkled with feta. The main dishes are served solo, but can be paired with sides that are sold separately. One suggestion is the Mahi “blackened” with chipotle, bleu cheese butter, tomatoes and bells, served with a bowl of jalapeñochorizo “corn off the cobb.” For some serious comfort food, there’s the

Crab Cake, Tabasco ‘Caviar’ and Tarragon Aioli aptly named Pork Butt — braised, tender meat with peach slices and bacon emulsion, which can be ordered with green beans, mushrooms and cream, a take on the casserole often served at Thanksgiving. There are plenty of other selections, from crowd favorites Scallops “diver” and New York “classic” steak to raw bar items such as oysters and the kobe carpaccio. Libations to accompany entrees include wines, which are half-priced on Tuesdays; local brews; and “infusion” cocktails such as the Lt. Dan, a potent mix of sweet tea vodka and lemonade; and the Jalaberry Strawpeño, which mixes strawberry jalapeño tequila with pressed lime and agave nectar. For health-conscious consumers, there are Sujas — raw, cold, pressed juices that combine fruits, vegetables and spices. There are a half-dozen desserts, including the bacon brownie with peanut butter chocolate mousse, bacon-peanut brittle and a scoop of malt chocolate ice cream. The restaurant also presents brunch on Sundays, and a lunch menu on weekdays that predominantly consists of salads, specialty sandwiches and burgers.

The Theatre School@ North Coast Rep presents ‘The Diary of Anne Frank’ Authenticity, remembrance and resonance are at the heart of The Theatre School@ North Coast Rep’s new production of “The Diary of Anne Frank,” which opens Nov. 21, and features a gripping new adaptation by Wendy Kesselman from the original stage play by Francis Goodrich and Albert Hackett that weaves newly discovered writings from the diary of Anne Frank with survivor accounts. Authenticity comes from the hours the cast of local 9- to 19-year-olds are spending time watching documentaries about Anne Frank (a 13-year-old Dutch girl who recounted her family’s struggles as they hid from the Nazis for two years), visiting the San Diego Jewish Academy (SDJA) and hearing the stories of Holocaust survivors, some of whom will tell their stories at the performances. The production was made possible by the City of Solana Beach. Remembrance comes through the production’s participation in The Butterfly Project, a hands-on art project created by SDJA in

Del Mar’s Abby DeSpain as Anne Frank. Photo/Aaron Rumley 2006 to memorialize the Jewish children killed in the Holocaust. The project involves making 1.5 million ceramic butterflies worldwide in honor of the children’s memory.

Frontline: Cancer

Athena Breast Health Network sets a standard BY SCOTT M. LIPPMAN In my previous columns, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve talked about the promise of using genetics to personalize cancer treatments, prevention and early detection. But there is much more to cancer than genetics. A personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cancer risk depends on multiple factors. Genetic makeup is one, of course, but the environments a person is exposed to over his or her lifetime, and lifestyle behaviors such as smoking, diet and physical activity, are also significant and influential. Cancer researchers are just beginning to understand how all of these factors interact, leading to increased cancer risk for some and deceased risk for others. One new and exciting program that is leading the way is the Athena Breast Health Network, a collaboration of the five University of California medical centers in partnership with the Safeway Foundation and the UC Office of the President. The heart of the program are

Dr. Scott Lippman thousands of participating women undergoing their regular screening mammograms, plus women who are breast cancer patients and women with benign breast problems. The programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concept is simple: As we move to a paperless medical environment, women who are booked for their mammogram fill out an electronic intake questionnaire rather than a paper one. This includes all of the usual, routine information, such as breast biopsy history, family cancer history, hormone use and breast symptoms. But because this data is

now electronic, we have the new ability to quickly flag patients who have specific combinations of risk factors. Each UC site has a breast health specialist who can consult with targeted patients by phone. This program takes a very holistic approach to breast cancer prevention and early detection: Women can be referred to programs such as lifestyle coaching and healthy cooking classes, genetic counseling or a high-risk breast clinic. The overarching purpose is to identify women at the highest risk of breast cancer and empower them, as well as their primary care doctors, to engage in prevention and early detection. At the same time, these women can consent to allow researchers to use information from their electronic questionnaires to learn more about breast cancer risk factors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and protective factors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; on a large scale in realtime. One important goal of Athena is not just to identify women at highest breast cancer risk, but also to learn

more about which women are at minimal risk and who may not need to undergo screenings as frequently. One of the advantages of personalized cancer prevention and cancer treatment is eliminating unnecessary medical tests and treatments. Beyond the mammogram component of Athena, breast clinics and breast cancer clinics are using the program to boost survivorship care. Many breast cancer survivors have long-term side effects from their treatments. In chronicling their care electronically, they describe their treatment history, symptoms and problems, which can be automatically flagged so that physicians can address them more quickly. On the research side, scientists can study the data and pool information about tumor biology, treatment, side effects and cancer recurrences. Again, the aim is to learn more about which breast cancers need aggressive treatment and which patients can safely avoid specific treatments and associated side effects. The Athena program is an example of collaboration on many levels. First and foremost, it is a partnership between patients, their health care providers and researchers: Primary care doctors consult with basic science researchers. Breast oncologists and surgeons coordinate with physical activity researchers. Pathologists and radiologists work with patient advocates. Altogether, they represent multiple institutions with many missions cooperating with academia and community to pursue a singular cause. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what it takes to beat cancer. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Scott M. Lippman, M.D., is Director of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center. His column on medical advances from the front lines of cancer research and care appears in this newspaper the fourth Thursday of each month. You can reach Dr. Lippman at mcc-dir-lippman@ucsd.edu.

Horizon Prep Spirit Bowl The 10th Annual Spirit Bowl turned out to be a hot day â&#x20AC;&#x201D; on and off the gridiron â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for the Horizon Prep Lions, as they fought their way through the tournament to a 21-0 Championship game victory against St. Patrick. Eleven teams from San Diego schools battled each other in the massive Flag Football Tournament to raise money for Camp Julian Oaks. Since 2004, Spirit Bowl has raised more than $24,000 for Camp Julian Oaks, a mountain camp for

BY RANDI CRAWFORD Surely youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve read about the undefeated Aledo Bearcats football team by now. They average 70 points per game and, recently, they beat Western Hills with a score of 91 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 0. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve read reports about the game, it states that the coach starting substituting players as early as the first quarter. Apparently, his running back is so good that he touched the ball six times and scored 4 touchdowns (Wow). His back-up RB found holes to run through even without the starting offensive line. The team was playing their second and third team lines and back ups most of the game, and ran the clock out starting in the third quarter, doing everything short of taking a knee. And wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you know it, a parent from the losing team â&#x20AC;&#x153;Had a hard time on the ride home with her son,â&#x20AC;? so she filed a â&#x20AC;&#x153;bullying complaintâ&#x20AC;? against the coaching staff of the Aledo Bearcats. Can I just start out and say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Typical.â&#x20AC;? The complaint stated that the coaching staff should have instructed their players to â&#x20AC;&#x153;ease up and quit playing hard once the game was in hand.â&#x20AC;? The mom went on to ask how she was she supposed to explain that kind of a loss to her son? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll tell you how lady, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s real simple: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Son, I love you whether you win or lose. But tonight, the Aledo Bearcats played phenomenal football and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a reason why theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re number 1. I realize it was a tough loss, but hopefully this will inspire you to work harder and find a way to kick their a** one of these days, or years.â&#x20AC;? But lady, the last thing you should have done is made an excuse for his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss and place blame on the other coach. Use this experience as a life lesson â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Son, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to win every game, deal with it.â&#x20AC;? My son plays football, and my father loves to watch. When he was about 8, his team was winning, so they told him to â&#x20AC;&#x153;take a kneeâ&#x20AC;? in lieu of running the ball and my father went full Parental Guidance (if you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen that movie, you should)! Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great scene when Billy Crystal goes nuts after his grandson (the pitcher) strikes a kid out, and the kid continues batting. Billy Crystal then confronts the umpire and says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey, that was three strikes, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out.â&#x20AC;? The umpire replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are no outs. In this league everybody wins, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a tie.â&#x20AC;? What made that moment so funny was the ugly truth in the statement from the umpire. You can laugh at the movie, but what you really want to do is scream in real life. My dad couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grasp (and still canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t) the concept, so

hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just part of our conversation after my sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s football game: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Randi, what just happenedâ&#x20AC;?? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dad, they are already winning and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to add insult to injury. They are teaching the kids about sportsmanship.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Randi, that goes against the grain for which our country was founded. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t accept this and neither should you.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dad, they are teaching them to be humble.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Randi, they are 8 years old. What they are teaching them is socialism, not sportsmanship. Someone has to win and someone has to lose.â&#x20AC;? There are about 100 different reasons why this Ft. Worth parent, who filed the complaint, is out of her mind, but hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important. While trying to protect her son out of love, and as a mother I get that, she is robbing him blind. Her son needs to know that making excuses for failure will result in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;victimâ&#x20AC;? mentality and he will always blame someone else for his shortcomings. Our leaders in Washington are running the country the same way, but I will never succumb to this mentality, nor will my kids learn that way of thinking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So Dad, I now agree with you 100 percent, 8 years old or not. I will do everything in my power to teach my kids to accept responsibility for their actions, never blame anyone else for their failures and, most importantly, to never stop trying.â&#x20AC;?

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Rosina restaurant serves traditional, authentic Italian food in a family-like atmosphere BY KAREN BILLING When you walk through the door at one of Rosina Gangaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restaurants you are stepping into several years worth of tradition, into a place where you will be treated like a member of the family and fed like one too. Gangaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second Rosina restaurant opened in Santaluz in March, following up on the success of her Oceanside location that celebrated five years in August. The menu stays true to her heritage, serving up traditional, all-homemade and all-authentic Italian food. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is what you would be eating if you were lucky enough to be in Italy right now,â&#x20AC;? Gangale said Gangale was born in Italy, into a large family with seven siblings and a mother who was an excellent cook. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Italian culture revolves around food because it is what brings everyone together,â&#x20AC;? Gangale said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is part of who we are as people.â&#x20AC;? All of the children were taught to help out in the kitchen and her earliest kitchen memories involve making bread at age 10. She remembers tables of 20 family members gathering for a meal on Sundays. She has upheld that wonderful tradition of family dinners; her restaurants are always closed on Sundays so the family can be together. Rosinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family moved to San Diego from Italy in 1982 and in 1983 opened When in Rome in Luecadia, which she ran with her siblings Salvatore and Rosemary. Gangale moved to Sun Valley, Idaho, to raise her children and only returned to San Diego six years ago â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in Sun Valley the family operated Salvatoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restaurant. When they opened When in Rome, Gangale did not have children. Now she has two sons, Giancarlo and Gianfranco, and they serve as cooks in her two Rosinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s locations, following the family tradition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They know what the food is supposed to taste like, what it is supposed to look like,â&#x20AC;? Gangale said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in their

At Rosinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, she promises that the pasta is perfectly cooked al dente and not overly sauced. While the printed menu is full of highlights â&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;Close your eyes and point because anything you choose will be delicious,â&#x20AC;? Gangale says â&#x20AC;&#x201D; every night there are lots of specials to choose from. They do an Insalata alla Siciliana, a Sicilian salad with a California twist, the addition of avocado to English cucumber, tomatoes, red onion and ricotta cheese. Their Burrata alla Panna antipasti comes with fresh creamy Mozzarella

and heirloom tomatoes. Her â&#x20AC;&#x153;melt in your mouthâ&#x20AC;? lasagna features pasta made by hand and Gangale said people always tell her that her Bolognese dish is the best theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever had. The Mare e Monte is a dish with shrimp, scallops and calamari sautĂŠed with wild mushrooms in a very light, fresh tomato sauce so as not to overwhelm the fish. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about the quality of the ingredients and the freshness of them,â&#x20AC;? Gangale said. On Mondays, the restaurant has no corkage fees, Wednesday is gourmet pizza night and Thursday is lasagna night. Tuesday is craft beer night where they offer craft beer or wine flights â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the restaurant has high quality craft beers on tap, such as Chimay and Boont. Rosinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also offers take-home dinners that are perfect to pick up any night of the week. Customers choose a freshly prepared salad, pasta and protein dish to enjoy at home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It adequately feeds four people and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a killer deal, especially now that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all so busy,â&#x20AC;? Gangale said. Gangale said while the Santaluz location may be a little hard to find, once people find it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a treasure. She has decorated the space in warm, inviting colors and her family smiles out from framed photographs on the wall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lovely little restaurant, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very nice area and people are very appreciative of having a great restaurant in their neighborhood,â&#x20AC;? Gangale said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost like Sunday dinners every night when people come in, my customers are like extended family.â&#x20AC;? Rosinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is located at 14701 Via Bettona (San Diego, 92127) in Piazza Santaluz, off Camino del Sur. For more information, call (858) 759-4300 or visit www.rosinasoceanside.com.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

The battle against breast cancer: RSFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lili Myersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; story continues By Lili Myers In June of 2012, I quoted Steve Jobs, and his words are still with me everywhere I go: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Your time is limited, so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t waste it living someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be trapped by Lili Myers dogma â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which is living with the results of other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thinking. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let the noise of othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opinions drown out your own inner voice. And, most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.â&#x20AC;? I want to once again remind you to stop for a minute and think of the people and of the things that really matter in your life, and then ask yourself if you are indeed living your life the way you would like to, and whether there is anything you can do to improve the quality of the emotions and feelings you share with those people. Some of the women that really matter in my life are the women in my team who have for the past eight years walked the Komen 3-Day (60 miles) Walk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Babes 4 Boobsâ&#x20AC;? was there for me in 2005 when I was first diagnosed and the women did their first walk. Then â&#x20AC;&#x153;Breast Budsâ&#x20AC;? (i.e. Gayle and I) was my team in 2006 when I had recently finished my treatment and was slowly recuperating, and thereafter I walked as part of the Babes team for the following years. This will be my eighth year (their ninth) of doing the fundraising and the walk in an attempt to raise money to help the women who are

diagnosed, who are in need of financial help, as well as to raise money for research and raise awareness. The team has been an intricate part of my support system as I could not imagine doing the Walk without them. Yet, I recently realized that this year will be the last year I do the 60 miles with them as I will be traveling during the time of the walk next year and the year after. This realization has made me think of how much they mean to me, and how special this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s walk will be for all of us. It is because of this coming change that I anticipate the 2013 walk to be absolutely incredible. Once again we will laugh and we will cry for 60 miles, we will bond and it will be a lovefest, an exchange of affection that will remain with each of us for the rest of our existence. Our lives change and usually we do not see the changes coming because we are living them and not looking at events from the outside. It is rare to have the opportunity to know that change is coming, to embrace change, and to turn the corner knowing that â&#x20AC;&#x153;changeâ&#x20AC;? is what you are doing. If you know someone who is raising money for the 3-Day Breast Cancer Walk, find it in your heart to make a donation to them. Know that each and every one of them has a special and unique reason for committing to walk 60 miles, to deal with the blisters and the aches, the sciatica pain and the knees swelling. Each one of those women will say to you that the discomfort they feel during these three days does not compare to the discomfort felt by so many women in the chemo room. I can vouch for that.

De Anza DAR and Wreaths Across America remember veterans on Dec. 14 The De Anza Chapter of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution will join Wreaths Across America to mark veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; graves at Miramar and Fort Rosecrans National Cemeteries on Dec. 14. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ceremony will honor veterans who served during the Vietnam War with â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Heroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Welcome!â&#x20AC;? The program begins at 9 a.m., followed by wreath laying by volunteers. Wreaths Across America is a national organization with a mission to remember those whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve served in the military, honor their service and sacrifice, and teach others to do the same. Fresh pine wreaths adorned with red ribbon are placed by volunteers on headstones in National Cemeteries across the country each year on the second Saturday of December. The program began in 1992 when the Worcester Wreath Company in Maine placed 3,000 extra wreaths on graves in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. In 2007, Wreaths Across America was formed and each year wreaths are laid in cemeteries across the country during the holiday season. The goal is to place wreaths at every headstone in the San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two National Cemeteries. About

Fort Rosecrans Wreaths Across America. 3,000 wreaths are expected for Miramar National Cemetery. Solana Beach resident and De Anza Daughter Bettybob Williams serves as the Miramar Cemetery Location Leader and Joanne Murphy, Rancho Buena Vista DAR, serves as the Fort Rosecrans Location Leader. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Teaching young people the importance of remembering veterans is part of our mission with Wreaths Across America,â&#x20AC;? Williams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scouting groups, ROTC, and families bringing children to lay wreaths helps accomplish this mission. Make it a family event to honor our service men and women.â&#x20AC;? The cost of a wreath is $15. De Anza members will be at the Del Rayo Post Office Wednesday, Nov. 20, between noon and 1 p.m., Friday, Nov. 22, from 2-3 p.m., and Monday, Nov. 25, from 3-4 p.m. to sell wreath sponsorships, and at the Rancho Santa Fe Post Office on Nov. 18 from 11-5 p.m. If you would like to sponsor a wreath, or would like more information about events planned for your community, please email Bettybob Williams at thebbob2000@aol.com for more information. Wreath sponsorship may also be done online at www.waastore.com. Volunteers are needed at both sites to place wreaths. For information on participating as a volunteer, visit www.waasandiego.com.

The Irish Minister for Tourism, Leo Varadkar, accompanied by Irish Consul general, Philip Grant, and CEO of Tourism Ireland, Niall Gibbons, recently visited San Diego as part of a high profile visit to the West Coast in support of tourism, business, and investment objectives. The Minister’s visit will also promote the new direct air services between Dublin and San Francisco beginning next year, and will highlight the success of the “Gathering” initiative, which resulted in a 7 percent increase in the number of tourists to Ireland in 2013. The luncheon at the UCSD Faculty Club was hosted by Tourism Ireland and Irish Network San Diego (INSD). INSD, launched in 2009, hosted the first-ever visit of an Irish Ambassador to San Diego in 2012. Forty million Americans claim Irish Heritage, and the relationship between the U.S. and Ireland has always been important to both countries. Over 1 million tourists visit Ireland each year from America for golf, equestrian activities, genealogical searches, or just relaxation. Photos/Jon Clark; For photos online, visit www.rsfreview.com.

Canyon Crest Academy Foundation announces major donation to Career Center The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation recently announced a $114,000 donation to its 10th Anniversary Raven’s Challenge by Katherine White. The money is being donated to the College and Career Center. White’s son Zachary is a senior and has benefited from the center and its staff. Foundation VP of Fundraising Amy Caterina said, “We are thrilled to receive this large donation that will keep the College and Career Resource Center staffed for the next five years. Donations such as these demonstrate the strong commitment that our parents have in supporting our Foundation and its mission to enrich every student every day.” CCA is the only high school in the district that has dedicated staff at its College and Career Center. It is staffed by Darlene Burton, College and Career Center Coordinator and was designed to be an integral part of the Counseling Department. Burton assists the counselors in providing current information to students and families exploring colleges and careers and navigating the college search and application processes. During fall, the center is busy with college rep visits. Recognition of CCA’s strong academic and art programs makes CCA a priority destination for many private and public colleges/universities. College visits provide CCA students with opportunities to obtain information about student life on campus, application requirements, institutional scholarships, housing options and majors/ program of study in a personal, small-group setting. Also at this time of year, CCA’s portion of the National Merit Scholarship Program and transmit Semifinalists’ applications are coordinated and completed. To facilitate communication from Counseling, a bi-monthly newsletter is posted to CCA’s website and a copy is delivered through Naviance. Monthly Q & A’s are hosted in the College and Career Center, often for specific target groups, to ensure that the needs of families are being addressed. Additionally, to aid students in preparing for college entrance tests, test prep materials are maintained in the College & Career Center, including a growing library of donated SAT, SAT Subject, ACT and AP books available for check-out. Burton notes, “The College & Career Center is meant to be a vibrant asset to the Canyon Crest community. It is a privilege to work to grow the Center to better serve our students and families.” “The CCA Foundation is most grateful to Ms. White for her generosity and to Ms. Burton for the wonderful job she does in coordinating the varied activities of the College and Career Center.” The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation is a parent-led 501(c)(3) organization providing fantastic opportunities across academics, athletics, and the arts, and creating an environment where students can thrive. Your tax-deductible donation to the CCA Foundation is vitally needed to continue our support of these programs. You can donate online at www. canyoncrestfoundation.org.

Adopt A Family boutique to support young terror victims in Israel The Adopt A Family Foundation will hold its fourth annual Boutique Event on Thursday, Nov. 14, in Carmel Valley. Adopt a Family is a local non-profit that provides financial and emotional support for Israeli citizens and their families who have been victims of terrorism. The boutique will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the West Highlands Pacific Clubhouse in Pacific Highlands Ranch, featuring vendors such as Peace & Love, Terroir by the Sea, Bella Sereena, Raiscase, Kelly Haas, Sasha and Me, Vivienne K Jewelry, The Miscelleny Shop and many more. The annual boutique supports a new project every year, according to co-founder Carine Chitayat, a Rancho Santa Fe resident. This year, the boutique’s proceeds will sponsor the efforts of author Liora Eilon, who wrote the book “Ha’mitpachad shel Yarden” (Yarden’s fearkercheif”). The book’s goal is to help children deal with their fear and trauma due to the constant bombing in their region. “Ha’mitpachad is not a real word but a combination of two words: it is giving the idea to children to be able to place their fear in a handkerchief, far from their heart and soul. The book will be used as a tool for teachers to be able to work with their young students in the classroom,” said Chitayat. “As a next step, Liora Eilon is hoping to have the book translated to Arabic. The Adopt a Family Foundation is happy to have the opportunity to participate in this worthwhile project.” The West Highlands Pacific Clubhouse is located at 5850 Blazing Star Lane, San Diego (Carmel Valley) 92130. For more information, visit adoptafamilyFoundation.org or call (619) 5485844.

Your Family Matters: Childhood obesity update BY DR. KEITH KANNER September was National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month and for important reasons. Over the past four decades, obesity rates in children and adults have continued to soar and despite numerous attempts to stop the Dr. Keith Kanner problem, both kids and adults alike continue to both eat poorly and lack proper exercise. Why? Could it be as simple as parental absences to explain why our children and adolescents are at an all-time level of obesity and developing disorders, including diabetes? It may not explain all cases of obesity, but probably a majority. Once again, we have an issue of allowing children and adolescents to function too freely and rely on themselves and their peers to function in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s society. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hot lunchesâ&#x20AC;? have become more popular than the old homemade brown sack from home made with the heart of mom or dad including healthy, yet goodtasting foods. Instead, much of what kids eat these days are either at the discretion of others or themselves based on what they might find in the pantry or buy when given money to get a snack. In fact, many children I have interviewed tell me that they make their own breakfast and lunches based on the foods their parents stock in the fridge. To make matters even more complicated, money is tight these days and better foods tend to cost more, so buying healthy food also contributes to the issue. Tack on both parents working and not being home to either make healthy foods or monitor what their child puts into his or her mouth, and the explanations seem to come together. The problem is getting worse. Some have taken an educational approach to teach kids to â&#x20AC;&#x153;eat betterâ&#x20AC;? and regulate what they put into their bodies, thinking that evoking fear might make a child think twice before eating that candy bar rather than a piece of fruit or a handful of nuts. But, remember, we are dealing with kids, not adults. Kids are more interested in what takes the least amount of time and tastes good, rather than if what they ingest might cause some sort of health problem later in their lives. In other words, until late adolescence, children live in the moment, not the future and this is normal in terms of their maturity. Speaking of maturity, many parents think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great when their kids make their own food in that it seems â&#x20AC;&#x153;independentâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;mature.â&#x20AC;? Not when it comes to primary health and survival issues. Kids need their parents to feed, shelter, and protect them until they â&#x20AC;&#x153;leave the nestâ&#x20AC;? after high school at the least. So, once again, the weight falls on the parents to provide and regulate what a child eats or not eats. In other words, we are back to being parents and looking out for our children. But, when it comes to weight, fitness, and physical health, adults have trouble even taking care of themselves as most American adults are overweight themselves. So, to top things off, we are not modeling good health habits to our children either. Why has it become harder and harder for us to take better care of our children and ourselves? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a whole other article, but

maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time for each family to take more responsibility for the health of their children and themselves. If we do this, we might actually reduce skyrocketing healthcare costs without waiting for the politicians to figure out how the government should â&#x20AC;&#x153;take care of us.â&#x20AC;? When it comes to food, this really isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rocket science. The media has saturated the airwaves with â&#x20AC;&#x153;whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s healthy and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not.â&#x20AC;? Everyone understands the concepts of â&#x20AC;&#x153;low fatâ&#x20AC;?; â&#x20AC;&#x153;fiberâ&#x20AC;?; â&#x20AC;&#x153;proteinâ&#x20AC;?; â&#x20AC;&#x153;waterâ&#x20AC;?; â&#x20AC;&#x153;eating smaller portionsâ&#x20AC;?; and the importance of moderate exercise, getting enough sleep, and trying to lower stress as much as possible. The formula is the same, but compliance is another story. So, if you neglect taking care of yourself, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it out on your kids. Below is an easy way to help your kids eat healthfully without both telling them â&#x20AC;&#x153;how much to eat,â&#x20AC;? and turning them into calorie counters, both of which tend to push many kids into eating disorders. 1. Have a nutritious yet tasty pantry. What you put in on your shelves and in your fridge is open season for your kids. 2. Cook for your kids, and cook goodtasting, yet healthy foods. These days, many families do not eat together and many parents let their kids make their own meals. This is a bad idea unless you have a very mature child or teenager. There are plenty of books on healthy cooking for families out there. 3. Make your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lunch. Forget the hot lunches. Pack your child a great-tasting lunch with lots of options. Also, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget the note to them that you love them. If they are happy, they will eat better. 4. Give choices. Kids love to feel they have input. Give them a bunch of healthier foods to choose from. 5. Serve water. My 10 year old asked me what the four most important elements in life were this morning. I told him water, food, fire, shelter, love, family, and friends. Kids never drink enough water. 6. Mandate some sort of moderate exercise. Most overweight kids and adults are allergic to exercise. Get a dog and go for walks. Let them wear an i-pod. Play tag. Whatever, but do something, even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for 10 minutes every day. 7. Get them to bed. Sleep and weight gain are vital. When bodies are tired, they hold onto fat to generate energy. 8. Notice their changes when they eat better and point this out to them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You look great.â&#x20AC;? 9. Balance is a good thing. So, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eliminate dessert, just eat well beforehand and only serve one scoop. 10. Take better care of yourself. How can we expect our kids to make good choices if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t? Set an example, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overdue it.

Everything from the lighting, set construction, make-up, costumes, and house managing is all done by students. The show opens on Nov. 13 and runs Wednesday to Saturday for two weeks. Tickets will be available at www.tpplayers.com.
