BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe School District held a special meeting on April 23 to help parents understand California’s new testing system from the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC). The tests, which replace the STAR tests and are aligned with the new Common Core State Standards, will be given to R. Roger Rowe students during a testing window of May 4-21. As explained by principals Kim Pinkerton and Garrett Corduan, the SBAC tests are given to students in grades 3 through 8 and include computer adaptive tests in math and English language arts as well as performance tasks in both subjects, designed for students to show how they can integrate knowledge and skills. The SBAC represents 7

1/2 hours of testing over the two-week period. Unlike the old paperand-pencil tests, the tests done on the computer select questions that are appropriately challenging for students, based on their answers to previous questions. No two students will have the same test; each is tailored or customized to the student’s ability level. As Corduan said, the questions “march” up and down. When a student gives a correct answer, the next question is more difficult. If they answer incorrectly, the following question is slightly easier. “We tell the students they will get questions they don’t understand, but they should answer to the best of their abilities.

BY KRISTINA HOUCK After three years with the Solana Beach School District, Superintendent Nancy Lynch recently announced she is returning to Northern California to assume the role of superintendent of a Bay Area school district. (Solana Santa Fe Elementary School in Rancho Santa Fe is part of the Solana Beach School District.) “While I am excited about the opportunity to return to Northern California, it is very difficult for me to leave Solana Beach School District,” Lynch said in a letter to parents on April 21. “It has been an honor to serve as your superintendent. “Every day our students arrive at school excited to learn in nurturing and engaging classrooms and inno-
vative Discovery Labs,” she added. “With your support, we have implemented quality programs and our students have reached high levels of achievement socially and academically. I wish you continued success and want to thank you for your commitment to our schools.” Lynch joined the district in April 2012. Before coming to Solana Beach, Lynch served as superintendent of Placerville Union School District for five years. With more than 28 years of education experience, Lynch has also served as an elementary school teacher, assistant principal, principal and district office administrator in Palm Springs and Beverly Hills. Originally from Minnesota, Lynch earned a bachelor’s degree in elementary

Dr. Nancy Lynch education from Mankato State University, now called Minnesota State University, Mankato. She also holds a master’s in educational administration from Cal State San Bernardino and a doctorate in education from the University of La Verne. “My first love was
teaching,” Lynch said in an interview, adding that her father and grandfather were both teachers. “It runs in my family.” Under Lynch’s leadership, the Solana Beach School District has transitioned to Common Core State Standards and championed STREAM (Science, Technology, Research, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) through STREAMcentered Discovery Labs. In the fall, the district opened its seventh school, Solana Ranch Elementary School in Pacific Highlands Ranch. Founded in 1925, the Solana Beach School District serves the communities of Solana Beach, Carmel Valley, Fairbanks Ranch and Rancho Santa Fe. Today, the district has seven elementary
schools and a child development center, enrolls more than 3,200 pre-kindergarten through sixth-grade students, and employs about 450 teachers and staff members. “I’ve enjoyed the collaborative teams of teachers, staff and parents — everybody working together as an educational community to focus on the students and develop incredible programs,” Lynch said. Lynch said she was not looking to leave the district when a recruiter contacted her regarding the superintendent position at Reed Union School District in Tiburon. Located just outside San Francisco in Marin County, the district has three schools. See LYNCH, page 21

Rancho Santa Fe Association Board Biz: How water-wise are you? BY ANN BOON, PRESIDENT, RANCHO SANTA FE ASSOCIATION BOARD At our last RSF Association board meeting, Mike Bardin, general manager of the Santa Fe Irrigation District (SFID), spoke to us about the drought crisis and potential ways we can all work to conserve water. Mike explained that the SFID is taking a variety of actions to increase water conservation by residents and to improve the water supply for residents. SFID recently instituted a new landscape efficiency program that provides a detailed review of individual properties. Along with the review, the property owners are given a thorough list of suggestions regarding how they can conserve more water on their specific property. Completely free to the property owners, this service is called the “WaterSmart Checkup.” Over the past few years, like most RSF residents, my husband and I, working with our landscaper, have been very conscientious in seeking ways to conserve
Ann Boon water. In general, water used to irrigate landscape composes 85 percent of total water use in a RSF residential property, and, therefore, irrigation is where our focus has been. We have reduced our water consumption significantly over the past three years. Nevertheless, we thought the SFID’s offer of a free review was an offer we could not pass up. We went to the SFID website and applied for the WaterSmart Checkup. Within a week or so, the consultant visited our property, and surveyed the house and all the landscaping. He thoroughly reviewed our irrigation system, down to the last sprinkler head. With all this information, his own observations and
historical data on our water use, the consultant prepared a report for us in about two weeks. The report provided a site description that gave detailed measurements of irrigated turf and shrub areas and listed all the specific components of our irrigation system. The report also acknowledged all the actions taken to date by our landscaper and us. The report went on to compare our average historical water consumption for the past four years with target water consumption for our property. The monthly target numbers were calculated using data gathered from California Irrigation Management Information System (CIMIS). The bottom line was — even though we had already done a good job of reducing consumption — we still exceeded the total annual CIMIS target level. Not surprisingly, most of the overage occurred during the period of July through October. The good news is that the consultant offered some very specific suggestions to improve our water usage via
improved management techniques: • Install an upgraded rain sensor to our controller. • Monitor the meter on a weekly or semi-weekly basis. • Install a separate meter to monitor just the irrigation water. • Keep up with preventive maintenance such as replacing old irrigation valve diaphragms, defective nozzles, etc. We have already put in place these suggestions. And, of course, we continue to reduce areas of turf. The consultant will work with our landscaper for the next full year to fine-tune our water management program. This was an extremely worthwhile exercise for us. We learned a lot and are looking forward to realizing additional reductions in our water consumption. If you are interested in participating in the SFID’s program, go to www.SFIDwater.org. Go to “Conservation” then “Residential” then “Residential Survey.” Don’t waste time, though. The funding for the consul-
tant is limited. If you have questions, contact Jessica Parks at SFID at jparks@sfidwater.org. Also, one word on our upcoming budget mailing. As I have written before, our new manager, Bill Overton, has been working hard with staff to find managerial and financial efficiencies for our budget. In the last week, Bill and our new controller, Don May, have been preparing the final budget for approval by the Finance Committee and the RSF Association board. On May 1, the staff will be preparing the budget to be mailed to you as required by the Davis-Stirling Act
(the California law for HOAs) and by our own bylaws. Bill and Don made a concerted effort to streamline the budget format for our mailing. What you will receive this year is a document that is half the size of the old one, more accurate and fully compliant with the law. Many thanks to Bill, Don and the whole staff that contributed to the budget process this year. I hope you will be as impressed as I have been with the new mailed version. Let me know what you think after you receive it. ann.boon@me.com

Thirsty for answers on the California drought? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got them BY KARLA PETERSON, SPECIAL TO THE RSF REVIEW Inquiring minds want to know: Are we there yet? While the California drought is now charging into its fourth year, drought-reality has been a little slow to catch up. Our taps are still flowing, our sprinklers are still sprinkling and our golf courses are still the color of money. How bad could it be? But Gov. Jerry Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-ever order for mandatory restrictions on urban water use makes the message as clear as the writing on your dusty windshield. The drought is real, and we really need to act like it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are facing some water-supply circumstances that we have not seen before,â&#x20AC;? said Jason Foster, director of public outreach and conservation for the San Diego County Water Authority. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a very serious drought that requires everyone to step up their conservation efforts.â&#x20AC;? What steps should we be taking, exactly? And where will they lead us? As California continues to grapple with this extreme challenge, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tackle three big questions about the state of Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drought and what that means to you. The climate cards are on the table, everybody. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deal. Question No. 1: How bad is it, really? Answer: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really and truly bad. Gov. Brown may have announced the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new and unprecedented mandatory water restrictions on April Foolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, but it is clear from the blunt language in Executive Order B-29-15 that he was absolutely not messing around. Here is the gist: â&#x20AC;˘ Californiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water supplies are severely depleted and the Sierra Nevada snowpack â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which usually provides about one-third of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is at a record low. That means drinking water shortages in some communities, degraded habitat for many fish and wildlife species, and increased wildfire risk. The drought has already resulted in severe water cutbacks for farmers. â&#x20AC;˘ We may be stuck with it for a while. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A distinct possibility exists that the current drought will stretch into a fifth straight year in 2016 and beyond,â&#x20AC;? the order says. â&#x20AC;˘ He really means it. The governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call for an average statewide water reduction of 25 percent is a big increase from the 20-percent reductions the state failed to meet last year. The State Water Resources Control Board will begin assessing compliance with the new water-use reductions in July. Question No. 2: When will the water-saving ax fall? Answer: Here is the approximate timeline. On May 5 or 6, the state board will announce the details of its 25-percent water-use reduction mandates. Thanks to the San Diego regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past water-saving efforts, some of our local water districts will be dealing with smaller (but still formidable) reduction numbers. The city of San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reduction rate has been
Holly Manion inspects drought-resistant succulents at her home in Rancho Santa Fe. The plants, mulch and decomposed granite were put in after Manion ripped out her lawn. Photo by Hayne Palmour IV/U-T San Diego cut to 16 percent, for instance, and the Sweetwater Authority will be looking at a 12 percent. Less-frugal districts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like Olivenhain and Santa Fe â&#x20AC;&#x201D; will have to make up for past guzzling with mandated cuts of 36 percent. On May 14, the San Diego County Water Authorityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of directors will look at regional response actions, which the individual districts will then translate into the restrictions and regulations that will affect you and your lawn. Those details should fall into place fairly quickly. Question No. 3: What am I supposed to do about this? Answer: As you await word on the next wave of water-use instructions, start following the ones that are in place now. You can find your local restrictions and conservation programs at www.sdcwa.org/find-your-water-district/. Restrictions vary, but the must/must-not lists generally look like this: See DROUGHT, page 21

New book chronicles eccentric RSF liquor magnate’s final years BY JOE TASH Seth Schechter was working at a boring job at a San Diego law firm in 2003 when a co-worker poked his head into his office to tell him about a job listing on the website Monster.com. The posting said a highly successful liquor importing company was looking for a staff attorney who would travel with the company chairman, work on various projects and be expected to post highly competitive scores during “golf outings.” “A big booze company was hiring an inhouse attorney to play golf, travel and drink extensively with the chairman? Either Todd (the co-worker) had found the Holy Grail of legal jobs, or I was getting punked,” Schechter wrote in a self-published memoir, called “Martini Wonderland,” which came out April 4. “It was so good I didn’t think it was real,” said Schechter in an interview. “It turned into the craziest job experience of my life.” Schechter, 47, a Carmel Valley resident, soon found himself in a first-class seat on a red-eye flight bound for New York, and an interview with Sidney Frank, who made a fortune by creating Grey Goose vodka, and turning Jägermeister liqueur into one of the hottest brands in the nation. Schechter — an avid golfer who had also studied wine-making — was hired by Frank to work on such projects as starting a new wine brand, and launching an energy drink called “Crunk!” Other duties included
inspecting properties, such as an island in the Bahamas where Frank wanted to build an exclusive golf resort. Frank, who sold his Grey Goose brand to Bacardi for a reported $2.3 billion in 2004, maintained homes in Rancho Santa Fe and New Rochelle, N.Y. Schechter became part of Frank’s entourage, which included nurses, chefs, security guards, massage therapists and professional golfers, whom Frank kept on the payroll so he could watch them play on the links at various country clubs. In his book, Schechter described his first meeting with Frank in September 2003, which took place in the 83-year-old liquor magnate’s bedroom. An enormous bed dominated the center of the room, which was kept chilled, and the space was decorated by paintings and sculptures by artists such as Picasso, Renoir, Matisse and Dali. One part of the suite contained a gourmet kitchen, and another area contained a wine vault. A porcelain toilet stood next to the bed. The 300-pound billionaire lay on the bed naked, smoking a cigar, while a massage therapist kneaded his legs and feet. Schechter worked for Frank from 2003 through January 2006, when Frank died from a heart attack at age 86. He continued working for the company and its related foundation for about two more years. In spite of the benefits of the job, such as staying in top-rated hotels, playing golf on exclusive courses and drinking his fill of free alcohol, the experience took its toll, Schechter wrote in his book, particularly on
Local resident Seth Schechter, right, wrote “Martini Wonderland” about working for eccentric liquor magnate Sidney Frank of Rancho Santa Fe. Courtesy photos his relationship with his wife, Laurel. “It seemed like the higher I climbed and the more money I made, the unhappier Laurel became. She was tired of living alone for extended periods, and sick of living in the shadow of Sidney’s flying circus,” Schechter wrote. “Didn’t she realize it was a sacrifice to be far away from home and my loved ones for months at a time, all in the quest to fulfill the visions of a batty billionaire? It was a daily struggle, albeit more tolerable as said struggle was staged on luxurious tropical locales with five-star resorts sporting Michelin-rated restaurants and championship golf courses.” Schechter wrote that he changed most of the names of the people featured in his book, but he still said he fears getting a call from an attorney for the family, upset at his candor in chronicling his experiences working for Frank. After reading the manuscript, he said, his own mother
told him, “Don’t ever publish this.” But Schecter said he needed to write the book to get things off his chest. “It’s a story people should know. Sidney was living proof you could have everything and nothing at the same time,” Schechter said, because even though the billionaire had his retinue, he lacked close friends and family, and was not a happy person. Schecter now works for a start-up company based in San Diego that is creating analytics to gauge the effectiveness of nonprofit organizations. He and his wife have two children: Sydney, 8, and Lucas, 5. Although working for Frank had its ups and downs, Schechter said, he made the right decision to take the job. “I would do it again, absolutely,” he said. Schecter’s book is available at www.amazon. com.

Mille Fleurs blooms with fresh new look BY KAREN BILLING Mille Fleurs unveiled a new look last week, inspired by the rare, hand-painted blue and white delft tile that has been inlaid in the bones of the restaurant since the late 1970s. The fact that the inspiration for the restaurant’s new blue hues came from the floral tile pattern that inspired the Mille Fleurs name 30 years ago makes it particularly special. Owner Bertrand Hug decided in January to do the remodeling and closed the restaurant last weekend for a rushed four days of work, re-opening the dramatically changed restaurant on April 22. A luncheon was held April 21 to unveil the upgrades. (Luncheon photos shown on this page.) “Everybody loves it — all the regulars are super-excited,” Hug said. “I try to do a remodel every five or six years because I want to show the customers that I care. There’s nothing worse than staying pat all the time. I’m too eager … When you’ve been here for 30 years, you have to keep people interested.” The space has been brightened from the old orange and brown color scheme with fresh new blue banquettes, chairs and walls, printed valances and blue curtains — a touch of Provence. Hug said Connie McNally of the village’s McNally Company Antiques was “instrumental” in the design decisions. The warm, buttery yellow of the fireplace was echoed on the walls and in the beams. Hug said he was extremely impressed by the painters from Olde World Artisan, completing numerous coats of the painting work, working long days from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., 20 workers all avoiding stepping on each other’s toes.
Beach and Country Guild’s ‘Regale in the Ranch’ for UCP to be held May 8
Hug also had the kitchen floors and walls redone, as well as the floors of the walk-in refrigerator — a large undertaking. “To remove everything in the kitchen, that was a huge deal,” he said. To help toast a special anniversary year, each table in Mille Fleurs is now set with a special new wine glass, stamped with “Mille Fleurs 30th anniversary.” “The customers have been buying those like crazy,” Hug said.

For the first time in North County tennis coaching history, two Belinsky coaches went up against each other on Monday, April 27th. Larry Belinsky (Canyon Crest Academy) and his nephew, Andrew Belinsky (San Diego Jewish Academy), coached and contested a non-league varsity dual match at Canyon Crest Academy with Uncle Larry’s team, the Ravens, winning, 17-1. The family connection was unknown to the studentathletes before the match got under way. Toward the end of the introduction, Uncle L-R: Larry Belinsky, Andrew Belinsky, Judy Belinsky, Larry “let the cat out of the Esther Belinsky and Craig Belinsky. Photo by Austin bag” by announcing their re- Schmid lationship and was quick to offer nephew Andrew a “Belinsky Tennis Club” hat and matching T-shirt to commemorate the special occasion. Other Belinsky family members were in attendance to join in on the fun. Esther Belinsky (Larry’s mother and Andrew’s grandmother), Craig Belinsky (Larry’s brother and Andrew’s father), and Judy Belinsky (Larry’s wife and Andrew’s Aunt) were there to offer their support. One thing was for certain: a team coached by a Belinsky was going to win!

Scripps Health director returns to North County, overseeing cancer care BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although just shy of three months into her new role as director of Scripps Healthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s system-wide oncology clinical care line, local resident Karen Jensen already feels at home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been wonderful,â&#x20AC;? Jensen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been even better than I had anticipated. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be happier to be here.â&#x20AC;? As director of the oncology clinical care line for the health systemâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s integrated cancer program, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I work with our partners across the Scripps system to make sure that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re providing highquality, safe care to all of our cancer patients,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working on our care delivery to improve quality, safety and service, making sure that we stay ahead in research and education, leveraging our resources as a system, and making sure weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re continuing to transform our care delivery in a challenging health care environment.â&#x20AC;? Before joining Scripps, Jensen held a variety of leadership roles in the Mayo Clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s southwest Minnesota region for 23 years. She started her career with the Mayo Clinic as a
chief financial officer at a small medical clinic at the age of 25. Over more than two decades, Jensen worked in finance, nursing, operations and quality at the Mayo Clinic. Most recently, she served as the Mayo Clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vice president of quality and director of clinical outcomes. In this role, she was responsible for improving quality and safety across the continuum of patient care, including implementing a regional medical staff quality program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m most proud of the impact Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had on the lives Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve encountered over the years, whether it be patients or colleagues and staff,â&#x20AC;? Jensen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the most rewarding by far.â&#x20AC;? Jensen grew up in Vista, but her family relocated to Minnesota when she was a teenager. After graduating from high school, she earned her bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in accounting and her masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in business administration from Minnesota State University, Mankato. After college, Jensen worked at an accounting firm for one year before transitioning to health care. Jensen returned to her

A nationally recognized leader in cancer care, Scripps diagnoses and treats more than 4,000 new cancer patients through its system-wide oncology clinical care line every year. Scripps treats more cancer patients annually than any other provider in California for cancers of the breast, colon, bladder, lung (small-cell carcinoma), Hodgkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lymphoma and non-Hodgkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lymphoma. In addition, Scripps ranks in the top five statewide for the number of patients treated annually for cancers of the prostate, pancreas, kidney, lung (nonsmall-cell carcinoma), thyroid and skin (melanoma). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scrippsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; cancer program is the most comprehensive program in Southern California,â&#x20AC;? Jensen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My vision and my role is to really continue what Scripps has already done an amazing job of developing.

On Feb. 9, she stepped into her new role at Scripps Health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been spending a lot of time getting familiar with the Scripps system, getting out to all of the sites and meeting all of the folks at the point of care,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been most rewarding is seeing how, within the Scripps culture, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s embedded that we put the needs of our patients first.

San Diego community members, physicians and cancer survivors came together April 25 at the Grand Del Mar for SPARK Gala, an evening to “ignite the fight against cancer.” The gala featured a cocktail reception, dinner, auction and special performance by actress and singer Megan Hilty, who made her Broadway debut as Glinda in “Wicked.” Proceeds from the event will benefit patient care and research at UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center, including helping to launch a new Cancer Immunotherapy Program. The funds will make possible groundbreaking immunotherapy clinical trials with novel drugs and vaccines as well as an experimental treatment in which patients’ own immune cells are genetically engineered to fight their cancer. The Cancer Immunotherapy Program at Moores Cancer Center is unique to only a handful of academic medical centers around the country. Visit sparkgala.org. Photos by McKenzie Images.

Target to open Del Sur store; plan is to welcome shoppers by October 2015 BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Just in time for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holiday shopping season, a Target store will open in Del Sur, making it a likely quick trip for RSF residents. Target officials said of the 15 stores they are opening across the U.S., two will be in San Diego County. A general merchandise Target store is coming to Del Sur, while a TargetExpress is going into San Diegoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s South Park neighborhood. The store coming to Del Sur â&#x20AC;&#x201D; tentative opening is planned for October â&#x20AC;&#x201D; will be around 135,000 square feet, anchoring a new shopping center for the neighborhood just west of 4S Ranch. The store will be at 17170 Camino del Sur. Erika Winkels, a Target spokeswoman, said the store will have general merchandise plus an expanded fresh food layout. The latter â&#x20AC;&#x153;offers guests highly differentiated items in addition to basic essentials, including an assortment of food products like dry grocery, refrigerated dairy, lunch meats and frozen items. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It also offers an open-market layout,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The design creates an environment that brings new food offerings to our general merchandise store, including basic fresh produce (bananas, strawberries and bagged lettuce), fresh packaged meat (ground beef, chicken and pork) and baked goods.â&#x20AC;? Winkels said the Del Sur store will also have a Starbucks, pharmacy, clinic and optical department.
Officials plan to hire around 200 employees, who can apply online at Target. com/careers or at in-store kiosks at all Target stores (including the one in Poway) roughly three months before the new storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opening, she said. The company will also host job fairs about two months before the October opening. At the fairs, prospective candidates may apply and interview for open positions. According to Winkels, the company works closely with local officials and guests to develop stores that complement and support a communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We identify potential new store opportunities in trade areas that are underserved or have the potential for new population growth,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We analyze extensive data on existing store performance, demographics, competition and market potential to identify trade areas which would be wellserved by additional Target store locations. The type of store we build is determined by factors such as anticipated sales volume, site constraints and the specific needs of a community.â&#x20AC;? According to published reports, the Target store (on a 10.4-acre parcel the company purchased) will anchor the new Del Sur Town Center, an 18-acre shopping complex being developed by Shea Properties at Camino de la Plaza and Paseo del Sur. Early drawings show several clusters of store buildings forming the shopping center.

DOUGLAS F. MANCHESTER Publisher PHYLLIS PFEIFFER President LORINE WRIGHT Executive Editor editor@rsfreview.com KAREN BILLING Senior News Writer KRISTINA HOUCK Reporter
I have a few comments after recently attending a RSF Association meeting at the Garden Club regarding the proposed new membership for a health club with lap pool and a separate community pool for all social members. First, I support the basic concept of adding a health club with lap pool and a separate community pool to our existing amenities of the golf and tennis clubs. These new facilities would provide to the community opportunities for: 1. Additional family activities and involvement 2. A wide variety of physical training and exercise equipment and 3. More social interaction for non- members of the tennis and golf clubs. I think that’s all a good thing and what most country clubs in our area are offering. However, secondarily, I do not support the location that seems to have been chosen which sites all these new amenities between the golf and tennis facilities. There must be a better separation of the new facilities somewhere else on the property that does not impact the existing golf and tennis centers in terms of parking, sound impacts, and activity in general. For example, most country club pools are in an area apart that does not disturb the other functions like golf and tennis to any great degree. I would urge the consideration of other areas adjacent and/or near the current clubhouse to be considered in this initial planning stage. With all the golf course property, there surely are other sites nearby that could be considered. The current plan is trying to put too much in a very restrictive space, in my opinion. Marion B. Dodson

‘Community’ pool? All of the designs for a proposed “community” pool consist of a lap pool of two to four lanes, and some sort of splash area for children. This is not a “community” pool by any definition. It goes without saying that the shape and size of a pool is determined according to its usage. According to USA Swimming, the national body governing the sport of swimming in the United States, “Never build a single-use pool,” and “Programming precedes design.” I don’t know if the pool committee has considered possible pool uses, but if it has, and it is recommending a lap pool of any number of lanes, it is definitely planning a single-use pool. Every swimming activity — be it water polo, swimming instruction, life-saving instruction, competitive swim meets, learn to swim for adults and/or children, recreational use, therapy, aerobic activity — has different requirements. A major drawback of a lap pool is its limited scale. A lap pool should be long and narrow and 4 to 5 feet deep. It must have swims scheduled and organized. A single lane can accommodate several swimmers, provided that they all swim at a comparable rate, either by lane swimming or a circle swim. A recreational pool needs a large shallow area and zero entry to accommodate older people, young people and those with accessibility problems. If the pool were to have tots swimming or hydratherapy, the pool would have to be heated at a different temperature than adult lap swimming. Scheduled use is necessary. It is impossible to solicit proposals without identifying prospective use. It would be like asking an architect to design a building, without considering whether it was to be a single-family residence, an apartment, in the city, in the country. Before any design can be sent to planners, a decision must be made as to the pools’ use. A pool that cannot accommodate the young, the elderly, instruction, meets, therapy — cannot be considered a “community pool.” Further, taking on a debt obligation for a pool when we still have a large debt for the Golf Club renovation seems fiscally imprudent.

Are you prepared for new hazards that are increasing the threat of wildfires?
JON CLARK Photographer DON PARKS Chief Revenue Officer
BY RSF FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT As we approach the one-year anniversary of the Bernardo Fire, we are reminded that wildfires are a constant threat for those of us living in Southern California, especially in wildland-urban interface areas such as those inside and surrounding Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District’s communities. The district employs a hazard abatement inspector who surveys properties for fire hazards and mails notices to property owners who are in violation of the Fire District Ordinance 2004-002 and 2014-01A, which can be found at www.rsf-fire.org. The Fire Protection District is sending letters to all residents within the service area, reminding them of the local hazard abatement requirements. Here are some ways you can safeguard not only your home, but your entire community. These requirements can also be found in their entirety at www. rsf-fire.org.

New hazards are increasing the threat A number of plant and tree species have been infected by insect infestation, disease, and lack of maintenance. Some of this vegetation has gone from being decorative to becoming a potential fire hazard. Over the past few years, the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District has seen an increase in the amount of tree mortality, especially with eucalyptus and California pepper trees, oleanders, myoporum and certain acacia species. Property owners should survey their properties for dead or dying trees and remove them as necessary in order to reduce the fire hazard. Replacement trees should be approved by the Fire District and your local Homeowners Association. Create and maintain defensible space A major reason no homes were lost in the Bernardo Fire was well-maintained defensible space. “Defensible space” is a term used to describe a 100foot buffer zone around all structures on your property, and a 20-foot zone along each side of roadways and driveways in which dead and dying vegetation is removed and excess growth is thinned. Defensible space not only gives firefighters a safe place to make a stand against threatening flames, but it saves homes and minimizes property damage. Creating a defensible space around your home can be as simple as removing combustible vegetation and flammable materials and replanting with drought-tolerant, fire-resistant trees, shrubs and plants. Keep vegetation well-maintained, and remove any dead foliage throughout the year. Weeds and grasses must be cut below 6 inches in height. Trees and native vegetation should not come into direct contact with structures or their parts. Tree limbs and foliage must be trimmed 10 feet from rooftops, chimneys and outdoor barbecues. Tree limbs should also be trimmed up at least 6 feet from the ground.
Roofs and rooftops Most homes with wood-shake roofs do not survive wildfires. During a fire storm, these homes burn from the outside-in. If you own a home with a wood roof, there is no more time to delay: Retro-fit your home with a roof made of non-combustible materials. Many newer roofing materials now resemble wood shakes, so homeowners can have the aesthetic qualities they desire while making their home a defendable one. However, a non-combustible roof can become a combustible roof quite easily if leaf litter and debris accumulate on it. To safeguard your roof, regularly maintain your roof and rain gutters free from any debris. Roadways and driveways Keep roadways and driveways clear from overhanging vegetation, which may hinder evacuation efforts and access of incoming fire engines. From the edge of driveways and roads, measure 13 feet, 6 inches straight up from the ground. Any overhanging bushes or branches in this area must be pruned or removed to create vertical tree clearance. Other important items • Remove dead palm fronds on palm trees within 100 feet of a structure or 20 feet from a roadway/driveway. • Trim combustible vegetation 10 feet away from propane (LPG) tanks, and keep wood piles at least 30 feet away from any structure on your property. • Stack and store firewood 30 feet from all structures. All flammable vegetation and combustible materials must be cleared or removed within 30 feet of firewood stacks. • Maintain a visible address. Whether it’s a wildfire or an everyday emergency, firefighters need to be able to read your address. Your address number should be visible from the street, with numerals at least 4 inches in height, mounted on a contrasting background. • If you own a private gate, it must be equipped with an approved fire district gate access switch and/or strobe sensor to allow firefighters to access your property during emergencies. Also, during wildfires, many firefighters arrive from out of the area and won’t be able to access your gated property. During a wildfire, disconnect the manual override motor on your electric gate, or if you have a manual gate, leave the gate open. Otherwise, firefighters may have to use blunt force on your gate, causing significant damage. • Ensure your house number is highly visible from the roadway to help emergency workers locate your home quickly. If you have questions regarding vegetation management, please contact the Fire Prevention Bureau at 858-756-5971. More wildfire prevention tips are available at www.rsf-fire.org.

Wine tasting fundraiser: ‘Pursuit of Pinot Perfection!’ An afternoon of fun, friends, wine and food was offered at the La Jolla Symphony & Chorus’ 14th annual wine tasting and benefit, “Pursuit of Pinot Perfection!”, hosted at the home of Rancho Santa Fe residents Julie and Don MacNeil. This casual indoor/outdoor affair began with a reception of eclectic white and red wines from around the world enjoyed with an array of “California tapas.” Following was an entertaining and informative “blind tasting” of California Pinot Noirs from the great pinot-growing region of the state. The blind tasting was moderated by syndicated wine writer Robert Whitley (“Wine Talk,” Creators Syndicate). The afternoon ended with a raffle of over 30 fine and rare wines from private cellars. Funds benefit the artistic programs of the LJS&C, an independent non-profit charitable organization affiliated with UC San Diego. For more information, visit www.lajollasymphony.com.

TEST

will tailor the test to what they know,” Corduan said, noting that of the 50-some questions on the computer test, some students may only get through between 30 and 40 questions. “It helps us understand the student’s individual ability and how we set an instructional program for each individual child,” Pinkerton said. “What’s wonderful about the SBAC test is that we’re able to track growth over time. We couldn’t do that with the old STAR test.” Pinkerton said the movement from the old to new tests includes questions that ask for a higher level of thinking and critical skills rather than just basic multiple choice. The test’s short-response written answers are not incorporated into the computer adaptive system. Pinkerton joked there’s no elves inside the computer reading those answers. The written answers don’t factor into the next question’s level of difficulty, but are graded at a later date by state test scorers to factor into the overall student score. The performance-task part of the SBAC test follows a classroom activity with the teacher, then a 30-minute discussion and thinking and planning time, without students knowing what the task will be. “The idea for the performance tests is the application of their conceptual understanding,” Pinkerton said. She said the tests are based on Common Core standards learned throughout the year, and they have prepped students by taking practice tests to get used to the technology and format of the tests and by having class conversations. She stressed they do not “teach to the test.” “We have to teach them how to be good test takers, but we focus more on being a learner,” Pinkerton said. Some parents were concerned that there will be no Academic Performance Index
(API) score this year. Pinkerton said the state board of education is still deciding whether or how APIs will be generated for school districts. With each child undergoing potentially more than seven hours of testing, parents wondered how useful the tests are if the results can’t be compared with other schools in the state or nationally. “The students are most important in my mind,” Pinkerton said, adding that the only comparison she’s interested in is whether a student is growing. “The goal is to make sure each child is moving forward and progressing at a rate that’s appropriate.” “This is not the end-all, be-all assessment — this is just one component,” she said. Data will be triangulated from a variety of assessments to understand a student’s overall ability. In addition to the SBAC tests, students take the MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) tests twice yearly, and fifth- and eighthgrade students will take the California Standards Test (CST) in science. Parents have also expressed privacy concerns about the computer tests. Pinkerton assured parents that no data is sold to third parties, students’ names and identification numbers are never put together, and no personal information is asked in written narrative questions. She said students at R. Roger Rowe are always taught to be “good digital citizens” and to never unveil personal information online. At least one parent said he planned to opt out of the test, part of a movement nationwide to protest Common Core and standardized testing. Pinkerton said to opt out of the test, a parent just has to write a handwritten letter to the school. Parents can learn more about the tests at the California Department of Education’s CAASPP page at cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/ca and can view practice tests at sbac.portal.airast.org.

“I wasn’t expecting to leave, but it was a wonderful opportunity as well and I needed to follow it,” she said. Although Lynch hasn’t officially been appointed yet, the Reed Union School District Board is expected to approve her contract at its next meeting on May 19. Lynch’s last day with the Solana Beach School District will be June 30. On July 1, she is expected to start as superintendent of Reed Union School District. The school board met in closed session April 23 to discuss the process of replacing Lynch. “I’ve loved the people and loved my time here,” she said. “I certainly didn’t expect to leave so soon. I’m going to miss this group.”

Limit your outdoor watering to two to three days a week. Information about watering hours and time limits should be posted on your district’s website. You can probably still wash your car at home, but given the recommended procedures (wash on a lawn or pervious surface, use an automatic shut-off nozzle, etc.), you are much better off going to a carwash that recycles its water. When it comes to water waste, districts are becoming more aggressive with enforcement and penalties, including fines. The focus is on outdoor use. Fix your leaks. If your sidewalks are wet and water is running from your yard into the gutter, you are watering too much. No hosing down of sidewalks, driveways, buildings or other hard surfaces. The water districts have yet to determine how much individual residents will be expected to reduce, but dutiful conservers aren’t likely to be penalized for their efforts. If you have been bathing in a Dixie cup for years, you will probably not be asked to downgrade to a thimble. “I do believe that some customers have done everything they can, and they will not be able to save any more,” said Tina White, assistant City Manager of Poway, which is dealing with a 32-percent mandate. And those days of cities merrily watering parks and running fountains are coming to an end. The executive order prohibits irrigating ornamental turf and public street medians with drinkable water, and the state water board will impose restrictions on campuses, golf courses and other institutional and commercial properties. Cities will be looking carefully at which parks get watered and by how much, and decorative fountains will be turned on only for maintenance purposes. It won’t be pretty, but it should be pretty universal. “That’s why we as a city are looking at everything we can do,” White said. “If we can save more, that is more that our customers can use. We hope our customers will use the same reflection.”

Laughing Pony Rescue participates in ‘Help a Horse Day’ Laughing Pony Rescue took part in the national celebration of The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals’ Help A Horse Day on April 26, competing for a chance to win up to $10,000 in grant prizes to help protect horses. To celebrate the day, Laughing Pony Rescue opened its ranch to families and friends. The event featured pony rides, along with horse-related crafts and games. This nationwide competition is for equine rescues and sanctuaries to raise awareness about the lifesaving work they do year-round to care for at-risk horses in their community, who have often been abused or neglected. Horses have been central to the ASPCA’s work since its founding 149 years ago, when Henry Bergh stopped a cart driver from beating his horse, resulting in the first successful arrest for the mistreatment of a horse on April 26, 1866.

‘Little Boy’ moves audiences, if not mountains, with depiction of great faith
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY DIANE Y. WELCH It takes courage to believe in the impossible and monumental faith to move a mountain, but Pepper, the leading character in the just released movie “Little Boy,” finds the strength to do both. The inspirational family film from executive producers Eduardo Verástegui, Roma Downey and Mark Burnett, was co-written and directed by Alejandro Monteverde. Lead cast includes Michael Rapaport, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, David Henrie, Eduardo Verástegui, Ben Chaplin and British Academy Award nominees, Emily Watson and Tom Wilkinson and newcomer sevenyear-old Jakob Salvati. The film had its world debut in San Diego County on April 23. At ArcLight La Jolla, the movie was presented by San Diego Film Festival and Charo Garcia-Guerra (see event photos on page B18). Event attendees included actor Jose Yenque, Diane Shapiro, and Arlene and Richard Esgate. Refreshments were sponsored by Moto Deli and Craft Pizza Co. A Q&A with 10News Anchor Kimberly Hunt followed the film. There was also a special invitation-only showing at Cinépolis in Carmel Valley. The unique pre-release “Theater Take-Over” approach was the concept of the film’s marketer Motive Entertainment. Five Rancho Santa Fe film ambassadors bought out the entire Cinépolis complex for the evening and sent out invitations to friends, family and neighbors in an effort to spread the movie’s message of faith, hope and compassion. In addition to theater buy-outs, the film
was also viewed in private homes and churches over a two-day period countywide in an effort to give the independently produced film a running start before its national general release on April 24. Nicole Mikles and Koki Reasons of Rancho Santa Fe partnered in buying out one of the theaters because they were so moved by the magic of the movie. Mikles suggested the two collaborate on funding the pre-release event after they saw the film at a VIP viewing in February. The two had been invited by close friend Laura Christ, whose family has strong ties to the movie. Christ’s cousin, Eduardo Verástegui, plays Father Crispin in the movie and is also one of the executive producers. Reasons spoke to the audience in Theater Seven before the movie began. “It was Nicole who first introduced me to the film,” she said. “So when I went to the screening, I had no idea what I was seeing. When we were standing in line someone asked, ‘You guys brought tissues, right?’ “Five minutes into the film I was weeping profusely,” she recalled. She hadn’t brought tissues, but her scarf worked just as well. “Then I felt a little tug, and Nicole was wiping her eyes with my scarf, too.” The film’s message resonates with everyone, every age, every culture, she said. “Anyone who has any emotion can get something out of this film. We were so touched by it that we really wanted to share it with our family and friends, those we love,” said Reasons. Love is a strong thread in the plot. Seven-year-old Jakob Salvati stars in the leading role as 8-year-old Pepper, who is willing to

Because of a physical anomaly, Pepper does not grow in height, and he is given the nickname Little Boy. Pepper asks his priest for advice on how to bring his father home. The priest tells him that if he has enough faith, if he believes and if he works through a list of seven chal-
lenges, then anything is possible. The story — which highlights family ties, racism, hate, war and faith — is set in the fictitious town of O’Hare, California, and was filmed at Baja Studios in Ensenada, Mexico. Shot like a series of Norman Rockwell paintings, the film presents an artistic interpretation of an idyllic coastal town contrasting with the ugly turmoil of World War II. “In a world and a time when we are all challenged daily to keep believing not only in each other, in our marriages, in our schools, in our leaders, in a greater power and even in ourselves, a movie like this reminds us of the power of hope, loyalty, belief and perseverance,” said Mikles.

Deeper insights lie beneath the glitter of Lux artist’s works BY DIANE Y. WELCH Appearing larger than life, the ebullient Jamaican-born mixed-media artist Ebony G. Patterson — appropriately attired in a silver dress and blingy shoes — charmed guests at the Lux Art Institute’s evening reception on April 2. It was the opening night of her eyecatching exhibition of life-sized tapestries depicting theatrically staged groupings of working-class males from the popular Jamaican dancehall culture. Patterson’s largescale works are embellished with “Untitled Species VIII bling. Fake (Russ)” loaned by Marti flowers, cosand Toni Oppenheimer. tume jewelry, metallic threads and upholstery tassels add tonguein-cheek adornment to tapestries commercially woven from staged photo-portraits that re-create lipstick-wearing gangsters and young black men with bleached faces, plucked eyebrows and flamboyant clothing. Looking primarily to dancehall culture — which surrounds a genre of Jamaican popular music that originated in the late 1960s — and its impact on Jamaica’s work-
ing class, Patterson investigates the ways in which young black men shape their identities within the mostly ignored subculture. To retell their stories, Patterson, who has a love of fabric, designs the outfits for her models, then works with a tailor who creates the clothing. “I can’t sew or cut,” she admits; but she has the imagination to visualize exactly how the clothing should look. “Then I take them back to the tailor to add embellishments,” she said. Making the clothing is a layered process, much the same as making the completed tapestries. Patterson then stages a scene, which is shot by a professional photographer. She edits the digital image and sends it to a commercial weaver, usually to Walmart’s photo service. Patterson considers the superstore’s tendency to carry kitsch products very appealing. “It seems appropriate for the kitsch culture that I am portraying,” she said. When the tapestry is returned, Patterson sets about embellishing the piece through thoughtful placement of kitschy adornments. During her residency at Lux, through May 2, Patterson will be working on three to four wall-based tapestries related to a larger body of work that she started in late 2013. Titled “The Dead Trees Series,” the pieces are related to images of people who died violently, imagery she discovered on social media. “I’ve been looking at social media as a popular cultural archetype, in the same way that hip-hop and dancehall culture give visibility to average working-class people,” she said of the inspiration for the series. “I’m especially looking at how platforms, like Facebook and Tumblr, give visi-

Welch. bility to otherwise invisible people due to their socio-economic standing,” Patterson explained. She is drawn to violence particularly because “these images that surface are often of working-class people.” Much of this imagery is brutally violent. Patterson explores the now-common situation that when something violent is occurring, and bystanders gather, their initial response is to take out their cellphones and record the incident. “The act desensitizes us to the horror that this is actually happening to an actual person; it is totally removed from our consciousness,” she said. “Through my work I’m using all of this bling, the kind of prettiness of the surface, as a way of seducing the viewer to look at the piece,” said Patterson. The process mirrors the way the viewer is seduced by the imagery when it’s seen online. Patterson’s unique work is held in many private collections and has earned her numerous awards, including Jamaica’s prestigious Prime Minister’s Youth Awards for Excellence in Art and Culture, and the Institute of Jamaica’s Mustgrave Award. Since 2007, she has taught in the art department at the University of Kentucky in Lexington. Kentucky is where she works, but Jamaica is still considered home, she said. Patterson will be in residency at the Lux Art Institute until May 2; her exhibition will be on display until May 30, 2015. Lux is located at 1550 S. El Camino Real, Encinitas.

RANCHO SANTA FE REVIEW - APRIL 30, 2015 - PAGE B5
CCA students produce ‘[OK.],’ technology-inspired rock opera BY DIANE WELCH Whether traveling by train or bus or plane, passengers often sit in solitude, wired to their music devices, checking their cellphones, browsing their iPads, communicating with technology, yet isolated from each other. This irony of modern human behavior inspired the 1997 album “OK Computer” by Radiohead — clearly ahead of its time — which contains 12 songs built on the theme of isolation and technology. Two Canyon Crest Academy vocal conservatory students, Olivia Capizzi and John Paul Welch, were inspired by this paradox to create, produce and direct a rock opera that includes dancers, choreographers, theater students, musicians and all of the vocal conservatory performing to the music from Radiohead’s entire album. “[OK.]” will be staged in CCA’s Proscenium Theatre at 4 and 7 p.m. Thursday, May 4, and at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 9. Admission is free. The theme of isolation is conveyed through a theatrical story constructed around passengers traveling by plane. John Paul and Olivia co-created the story over a weekend in January. “We presented our story to Ms. Whatoff (Envision vocal music coordinator) the next day at school and she liked the idea,” Olivia recalled. “She told us that we basically had free rein and that she’d be there to help, but it was our show and we would have to do all the work behind it.” That vote of confidence, supported by Jeremy Sewell (technical theater director) set the two in motion to take on the roles of creative writers, producers and music and stage directors. Individual groups of students have been rehearsing independently, said Olivia. The entire group will come together during technical week beginning May 4. Olivia also has a role in the show as one of seven principal soloists playing the role of seven passengers. “The idea is that all these characters are on a plane and they all end up there from different circumstances, bringing their own stories,” said John Paul about the plot. “We see them sitting on stage in these seats, like in a plane. When they are telling their story they get up out of their seat and come forward to face the audience to share their experience.” A major focus of the show is the attempt “to communicate a lack of communication,” said John Paul. “The idea is that all of these people who are on the plane are collectively experiencing similar problems and stresses of life, yet paradoxically they are going through this all by themselves, as they don’t interact, they don’t share their stories,” he explained. When they do share their story, it is to the audience, which gets an insight into their individual internal dramas. One story is based on two lovers who are running away from home. The scene is set to Radiohead’s musical track, “Exit Music,” with two dancers on stage who are symbolically telling the same story through movement. Both John Paul and Olivia appreciate the creative aspect of Radiohead’s work and the bold statements that the band makes with its music. “They just have such a powerful message and impact,” commented John Paul. “In ‘OK Computer’ the message has to do with isolation and technology. I think that is really relevant today. With all the recent technological advances, it is very easy to be disconnected and connected at the same time.” They also appreciate the encouragement from Whatoff and Sewell. “They both have been absolutely incredible and very supportive in helping us get through this process,” said Olivia. “But Ms. Whatoff is also really careful to make sure that it is still our project and that we’re the ones carrying the responsibility,” she stressed. CCA’s Proscenium Theatre is at 5951 Village Center Loop Road, San Diego.

Previously Bindu Yoga Studio, the spot at 1130 Camino del Mar is now home to Inhale Yoga & Fitness. “I’ve always loved the space and thought it had a lot of potential,” Heiner said. “So I was really excited about bringing fresh ideas and transforming the space into something more exciting.” Set to open May 2, Inhale Yoga & Fitness is a community-minded studio offering all levels of yoga and fitness classes. After a grand opening celebration May 2, the studio will launch its regular schedule May 3, with classes offered daily. “It’s going to be very community-minded,” Heiner said. “There’s always going to be something going on at the studio.” A former corporate scientist, Heiner led teams in drug Above: Lora Heiner and Waldiscovery research in San Diego for more than 15 years.

At one point, she simultaneously taught at seven different studios throughout the region. “I enjoy connecting with people and making a difference in their lives,” she said. “I get to see shifts, not just physically, but emotionally and mentally in people.” Most recently, Heiner worked in management at Yoga Six, where she led teacher trainings for more than two years. Heiner has worked toward opening her own studio since last summer. She collaborated with Walter Thomas, her former student and current business partner, to open Inhale Yoga & Fitness. “It’s been a really interesting partnership so far,” Heiner said. “I think we really work well together.” The studio has nine instructors, including Heiner and Thomas, who will recommend personalized, full-body programs so students can safely build strength, endurance and flexibility. From hot yoga to vinyasa flow, the instructors will lead a variety of classes, working with students to reach their personal goals.
DEL MAR
Located in the heart of downtown Del Mar, the roughly 600-square-foot facility offers an ocean view and is equipped with a one-of-a-kind yoga rope wall and yoga swings. The proprietary yoga wall has been specifically designed to enable students to use gravity while safely supported by straps and tethers to release tension and increase muscle tone and flexibility. The wall also functions as a strength-training center using TRX suspension training as well as resistance bands. Inhale Yoga & Fitness will open its doors 10 a.m. May 2 with a free, all-levels vinyasa yoga class accompanied by live music from local DJ DTO. The event will also feature raffle prizes, food and beverages. “I’m investing all my energy and emotion into this,” Heiner said. “I believe in it, because I’ve seen the effects that yoga can have on people.” Inhale Yoga & Fitness is at 1130 Camino del Mar in Del Mar.

SPONSORED COLUMNS MICHAEL PINES Accident & Injury Legal Advice 858.551.2090
The Loss of Work in the Aftermath OF Traumatic Brain Injury Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) affect every facet of life, from memory to physical ability to performing every day functions like speaking and eating. Unfortunately, it goes without saying that TBIs are one of the most catastrophic forms of injury. And when it comes to recovery, restoring
full brain function is often rare. In this sense, returning to work after a traumatic brain injury is generally difficult, if not impossible. In a recent report, we learn of one woman’s struggle with traumatic brain injury after she fell backward in a snow storm, landing head first onto icy pavement. “My feet went out from under me and my head just hit the pavement,” said Carey Gelfand, a Glencoe, Ill. resident who said she was on a business trip in New York when the accident occurred. Although she brushed off the accident at first, a cognitive fog soon developed. Once she returned home, she began forgetting
crucial details and lost the ability to focus at work. Exhaustion overtook her body and she was often plagued with debilitating headaches. “My boss [wanted] to take jobs away from me. I was very diminished in my position. I was just so frustrated and I had such poor sense of self,” said Gelfand. Although most TBIs occur as a result of car accidents, some may occur in the most unfortunate and yet ordinary ways such as a trip or fall. Seeking medical attention as soon as a TBI is suspected is essential when it comes to recovery and possible prevention of further injury. “It is important after a brain injury see a neurologist who can administer the proper
tests,” the article noted. “Not doing so means it could be weeks or years before the injury is diagnosed.” Gelfland said her job suffered considerably in wake of her TBI. Though she did not lose her job, she struggled to keep up with demands. Fortunately, she is able to talk about her experience, striving to create awareness for this surprisingly prevalent injury (TBIs affect at least 1.5 million Americans each year). Although Gelfland has maintained her work, most people are not as fortunate. Column continued at www.ranchosantafereview.com/ news/2013/dec/10/the-loss-of-workin-the-aftermath-traumatic-brain/

‘Carnation Rainbow’ is experiment for Village Church preschoolers The Village Church Preschoolers began a discussion on how plants get their nutrients. To show the children how that process happens, the teachers created an experiment with carnations. They used clear jars of water and food coloring, and placed a single carnation in each one. The children watched the flowers change colors, and discovered it is all about the roots. Then they extended the project by doing a still life of the flowers in the jars lined up together in a rainbow row. Chase starts watercoloring all his flowers first The Village Church Preschool is now enrolling. For information, call Pamela Miller at 858-756-2394 or email pamm@villagechurch.org.
