BY KAREN BILLING Spanish will return to R. Roger Rowe School’s elementary classrooms. At a special meeting on Tuesday, June 9, the board approved Superintendent Lindy Delaney’s recommendation to add Spanish to the kindergarten through fifthgrade curriculum wheel by replacing ocean science and
public speaking, giving students foreign language instruction two times a week for a trimester. By making the substitution, students would not miss out on those subjects, as ocean science will be incorporated into science lab and public speaking would be placed in the library as a mandatory part of the cur-
San Diego Polo Club property lease to go up for bid this summer BY KAREN BILLING The city of San Diego will soon go out to bid on the San Diego Polo Club property. The request for proposals for the 80-acre parcel was scheduled to go out when the polo club’s original 26-year lease expired in 2012, but the city has faced numerous delays. “We’re definitely interested in bidding; we don’t intend on going anywhere else,” said NourDean Anakar, vice president of the San Diego Polo Club. Heidi Farst, from the city real estate assets department, came to the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board’s May 28 meeting to hear the planning board’s concerns for respondents of the request for proposals (RFP). The board reiterated its input from February 2012, urging responsible use of the land because of its closeness to sensitive and protected habitats of the San Dieguito River Valley and also favoring recreational uses such as soccer being able to continue. Farst said she hopes the RFP will be released in the next 30 days. Once released, it will be posted on the city real estate assets website. The San Diego Polo Club’s original 26-year lease expired in March 2012. Since the lease expired, the club has occupied the property on a month-to-month basis. On May 31, they had a record-breaking opening day of polo with more than 5,000 people in attendance. The property is subleased to San Diego Surf Soccer, and Surf Cup and soccer practices and games often fill the grass. The issues the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board most wanted addressed in the RFP were the “maddening” entry and exit on El Camino Real and the traffic build-up, and how the leasee will interface with the nearby vacant property, a dirt lot that serves as overflow parking and has drainage problems. Developer Milan Capital is planning a senior living community on the 23.88-acre slice of land. See POLO, page 30

Water cuts to be topic at Santa Fe Irrigation District meeting June 23 New, mandatory water-use restrictions and water allocations for customers of Santa Fe Irrigation District (SFID) will be discussed in detail at a public meeting from 6-7:30 p.m. June 23 at the Lomas Santa Fe Country Club, 1505 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Customers are invited to learn more about the water cuts and have their questions answered. On May 21, the district’s board of directors approved new customer water allocations as well as Response Level 3 mandatory water restrictions and penalties. New water allocations are effective beginning July 1, 2015. The allocations are designed to meet the state’s mandated 36 percent cut in district-wide water use, put in place because of the worst drought in state history. To achieve this, the district is providing an essential allotment for basic indoor needs to all, but requiring any usage above that to be reduced by 45 percent compared with each property’s 2013 usage. The result will be a 36 percent district-wide cut in use. Each customer will be provided an allocation for their property measured in hundred cubic feet (HCF). One HCF is equal to 748 gallons. The allocations are as follows: Residential allocations: Each residential customer will receive an essential use allotment of 15 HCF of water per two-month billing period (11,220 gallons) with no restrictions. This is to ensure every customer has adequate water for basic household needs. Any remaining water use must be reduced 45 percent compared with what that property used in 2013 during the same billing period. Customers can find their allocation on their bills starting in July and through the “My Account” portal on the district’s website. Multi-family allocations: Multi-family customers will receive a base usage of 13 HCF per dwelling unit per twomonth billing period. All usage above this base will require a
45 percent cutback compared to the property’s 2013 usage. Government and commercial allocations: The state goal is to minimize outdoor water use. Government and businesses will, therefore, be allotted their lowest bi-monthly usage during 2013 as a base amount with no cutback. All usage above this base will require a 45 percent cutback compared to the property’s 2013 usage. In addition, water use restrictions are increased effective June 1 to Level 3. The most significant change is a reduction from three-day per week to two-day per week watering. The watering days are: Residential ODD addresses, Sunday and Thursday, and EVEN addresses are Wednesday and Saturday. Multi-family and all other are Monday and Friday. Irrigation of landscaping must be before 8 a.m. or after 6 p.m. on assigned days. “We’re facing the challenge of a generation when it comes to water in California,” says Santa Fe Irrigation District General Manager Michael Bardin. “The state is plowing new ground. At the end of the day, we’ve got a problem with water in the state, and we all have to use less water.” In order to help customers reduce water use, the district has expanded its conservation program which includes extensive rebates, incentives, and a water checkup program in which a water conservation professional will come to customers’ homes and businesses for free to identify water savings opportunities. The district is also carrying out an extensive public outreach program through mailers, the press, web, social media, local presentations and the public meeting on June 23 described above. Examples of the resources available at www. SFIDwater.org include: a summary of the entire water cutback program; document on how to read your meter; each property’s allocation; summary of water use restrictions; conservation rebates, incentives and programs.

RSF School board OKs 3% raise for teachers BY KAREN BILLING Teachers and staff at R. Roger Rowe School will see their first salary increase in seven years. At a special meeting held June 15, the Rancho Santa Fe School District board approved a retroactive 3 percent offschedule raise for the 2014-15 school year and a 3 percent on-schedule salary increase for 2015-16. “The Faculty Association is appreciative of the district’s decision to offer an increase. The increase of the 3 percent off-schedule for the 2014-15 school year, and 3 percent onschedule for the 2015-16 school year, will bring the negotiations of the three-year contract to a close,” Superintendent Lindy Delaney said. Starting in 1996-97, Rancho Santa Fe teachers consistently received a bump in salary of about 3.5 percent a year, going up to 4.5 percent in 2007-08. There had not been an increase since the 2008-09 school year, although the last two years teachers received an off-salary increase of 2 percent, like an end-of-year bonus. Several teachers spoke during public comment at the June 4 board meeting asking for compensation that matches that of neighboring districts and is reflective of the work they put in. The district and the faculty association met on June 9 in closed session and again on June 11 to settle the agreement, pending the board’s approval. Negotiations with the Rancho Santa Fe Faculty Association for the 2017-19 school year agreement will begin next year. Delaney is hoping to begin talks in February to reduce the stress of saving negotiations for the end of the school year.

Love of baseball creates bond between student, RSF Patrol officer BY KAREN BILLING Over the past two years, Rancho Santa Fe Patrol Officer Rick Petoscia has formed a special friendship with Carson Wehlage, a student with autism at R. Roger Rowe School. While stationed at the school, Petoscia was drawn to the infectiously happy and positive boy. He watched when Carson came to school early while his sister was in orchestra practice, taking walks around the neighborhood with his mom and his loyal service dog, Lexie. And he saw him at the end of the school day, greeting his mom with enthusiasm. “Every time he comes out to his mom’s car, he said, ‘I got an “outstanding” today, I did really good,’” said Petoscia, who has been with the Rancho Santa Fe Patrol for almost nine years, coming from a 22-year career in the Navy. “Nothing but a smile on his face every day … Nothing bugs Carson, despite what he goes through.” Carson thinks just as highly of Officer Rick, saying he is a special friend and that he is happy that he watches over him and keeps him safe every day at school. As a token of their friendship, this school year Officer Rick gifted his young friend with a one-of-a-kind Lou Gehrig baseball card. Once Petoscia, a longtime baseball memorabilia collector, learned that Carson played Miracle League baseball, he knew he wanted to give him something from his Gehrig collection, as Gehrig, too, had endured and overcome great challenges. Considered one of the greatest first basemen of all time, the six-time World Champion with the New York Yankees was forced to retire at age 36 because of ALS. He was elected to the Hall of Fame and was the first Major League Baseball player to have his number retired. (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease. It is often now referred to as Lou Gehrig’s disease.) The card Carson received from Petoscia includes a piece of a jersey that Gehrig wore in 1927. Carson, who plays third base, said he thinks the card is “awesome” and that he couldn’t believe Officer Rick gave it to him. He said he would treasure the card forever and always remember his friend when he looks at it. “Thank you for noticing how hard life is sometimes for me and my family, but the kindness like you showed can go such a long way,” Carson said. “I don’t always feel like I make achievements that get noticed. But you noticed me. And shared wonderful things with me. And became a friend to me. Thank you with all my heart.” RSF Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser said what Petoscia did for Carson was very neat, and it is part of the special relationship that the patrol can have with the community. The children get to know the officers who are there to keep watch on them and don’t hesitate to ap-

Petoscia was touched by Carson’s thoughtful thank-you note but humbly deflected the praise. “I have a duty to be here,” he said. “Whatever officer is here is going to do the same thing, no matter what. It’s what we do.”

Escondido Creek Conservancy buys 242 acres at Cielo Del Norte for $13 million The San Diego office of Colliers International announces the sale of Cielo Del Norte, 242 acres southeast of Elfin Forest Road and Harmony Grove Road, Rancho Santa Fe, for $13 million. The property was originally approved for a 77-lot residential development, but will become designated open space as a part of the Escondido Creek Conservancy. Ciara Trujillo, David Santistevan, and Gunder Creager of Colliers International’s San Diego Land Team represented the seller, Cielo Del Norte, LLC, and the buyer, Escondido Creek Conservancy. The mission of the Escondido Creek Conservancy is to protect and restore the Escondido Creek watershed, a 26-mile creek that forms at Lake Wohlford and meets the Pacific Ocean at the San Elijo Lagoon. Cielo Del Norte is just north of Cielo, a 1,740-acre private community with more than 528 luxury homes and 60 percent open space, where Colliers International’s San Diego Land Team has sold more than 75 lots to some of Southern California’s top homebuilders, including Taylor Morrison and California West Communities among others. Also nearby is the Lusardi Creek Preserve, which was expanded in 2013 when the San Diego Land Team sold 31 acres of privately owned land to the County of San Diego. “This property will remain in pristine condition as open space in perpetuity. It is truly an honor to be a part of conserving beautiful sites like Cielo De Norte in their natural state,” said Ciara Trujillo, vice president at Colliers International.

Salk research delves into reversing the aging process, cell by cell BY DIANE Y. WELCH A rapt audience hung on to every word that Dr. Jan Karlseder spoke during his lecture, “Keep Tabs on Your Telomeres: The Role of Chromosome Ends in Aging and Disease.� Karlseder is an award-winning professor of molecular and cellular biology at the Salk Institute of Biological Studies, holding the Donald and Darlene Shiley Chair. He spoke June 8 at the Del Mar Powerhouse, sponsored by the Del Mar Foundation and filmed by Del Mar TV. He received his Ph.D. from the Institute for Molecular Biology in Austria and completed post-doctorate degrees at the Center for Applied Genetics (Austria) and Rockefeller University. Karlseder’s laboratory studies the functions of the telomeres at the end of linear chromosomes. His evening presentation, enhanced with graphic images, gave a clear understanding of how telomeres affect aging. Every mammalian cell has a nucleus that contains chromosomes with DNA. Through colorful magnified images of stained cells, Karlseder showed that the tips of chromosomes — telomeres — get shorter with age, a major driver of cellular aging. “We are trying to understand why this happens, and our purpose is to extend the health span,� he explained. Health span is the period of life, until about 40 or 50 years old, when a person is not suffering from disease. “Our goal is to push that out to age 75 so that everybody may live healthily to that point, which will make a huge impact on life and also on the financial status of services like Social Security,� said Karlseder. With cellular aging come age-associated diseases like Alzheimer’s, diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, cancer and more, which are problems for huDr. Jan man well-being as well as being a financial burden, with 80 percent of Karlseder health care dollars being spent in the last five to 10 years of life, said Karlseder. “The big question my lab is asking is, ‘What controls aging cells, what is the clock that measures it and what is the connection between this clock and age-onset diseases?’� Cells divide only a certain number of times, then they expire. Controlling this process are telomeres — segments of DNA — located at the end of chromosomes. Every time a cell divides, the telomere gets smaller until it is too short to function. Unable to protect the end of the chromosome, genetic material is eaten away, which correlates to aging. Karlseder gave three examples of research from his lab to illustrate the importance of examining the aging cell.
First, researchers looked at genome instability. Examining cells from people with Werner’s syndrome — a disease that causes accelerated aging — it was evident that some of the chromosomes did not have telomeres, some were missing and some were disorganized. In the lab, using tissue cultures from Werner’s syndrome patients, this genome instability was suppressed by activating the enzyme telomerase, and the cells grew normally. “This is relevant because everything that happens in these people also happens to us, just not as accelerated,� The image shows two human cells where the chromosomes have been stained in blue and the telomeres in Karlseder explained. Second, researchers ex- green. When cells age, the telomeres erode and lose amined the hereditary mate- their protective properties, indicated by the red staining rial held in the DNA, which of some chromosome ends. Photo from Salk Institute of must be well-organized to fit Biological Studies inside the cell. This is accomplished by proteins called histones that wrap around the DNA molecules in a specific way. “We looked at old cells to see if the same amount of histones were present as in a young cell, and it was clear that fewer histones were visible in the old cell,� said Karlseder. An experiment was devised to take an old cell and force it to have the same amount of histones as a young cell. Consequently, it became indistinguishable from the young cell. “Here we can reverse the effect of aging without making the cell immortal. This is precisely the idea of elevating the health span ... at least in tissue culture, this is possible,� said Karlseder. Third, researchers aimed to answer the basic question, “What is aging?� “If I asked 10 people in this room what is aging to them, I’ll get 10 different answers,� See SALK, page 27

Local resident honored for work in behavioral health at Scripps BY KAREN BILLING Local resident Marlene Nadler-Moodie has been honored as the Behavioral Health Person of the Year for San Diego County. As an expert in psychiatric nursing care, she has for nearly 40 years informed the compassionate treatment of patients both locally and nationwide. As a clinical nurse specialist for the Scripps Behavioral Heath Team, she acts as a consultant, educator and clinician and has a drive to bring more psychiatric nurses into acute care and medical-surgical settings. Nadler-Moodie received her award May 29 at the San Diego Behavioral Health Recognition Dinner. “I did not think that I would win this award,” she said. “I was really honored by that and it was a surprise to me.” For more than 25 years, the award has recognized and honored individuals who have provided outstanding service to the mental health community. “In the course of a career that spans nearly 40 years, Marlene Nadler-Moodie has consistently promoted and advanced psychiatric mental health nursing in multiple and Marlene Nadler-Moodie varied venues,” wrote Jerry Gold, administrative director of was named the Behavioral the behavioral health care line for all of Scripps in his nomiHealth Person of the Year nation letter. He cited her “expertise, her passionate commitment to service excellence, her untiring advocacy for mental for San Diego County. health clients, and her exquisite clinical understanding and energy with a can-do spirit” as her most outstanding qualities. Among her accomplishments are promotion of safety and openness for geriatric patients, her development of alternatives to restraints and more humane treatment for those who need restraint, and her support for trauma-informed care that is raising awareness among caregivers for the need for more compassionate treatment of patients on all floors of the hospital, not just in behavioral health. In 2009, Nadler-Moodie was awarded the Psychiatric Nurse of the Year by American Psychiatric Nurses Association, perhaps the biggest honor of her career. She was elected president of the APNA and served three years, and is now president of the APNA California chapter, traveling all over the state. She is also the APNA’s representative to the American Nurses Association, attending national meetings to discuss psychiatric nursing. “(Nadler-Moodie)’s inspiring work to de-stigmatize mental illness and to insure the pro-
“How much will new replacement windows cost us?”
vision of competent compassionate care for those that struggle with mental illness is greatly applauded,” wrote Gale Osborn, chair of the awards committee. “(Her) innovative efforts have clearly made a difference in the lives of countless individuals and their families who are challenged with mental disabilities.” Nadler-Moodie has been a nurse since 1970, working as a psychiatric nurse for 43 of those years. “I always wanted to be a nurse,” she said, tracing the origins to the third grade, when her teacher gave her a book about nursing. Choosing her specialization came early in her career, after doing her psychiatric nursing rotation in a “male active ward” in New York when she was just 18. “In that unit, men were (lying) on the floor in straitjackets, and it was pretty deplorable,” Nadler-Moodie said. For showers, the men were put in a shower room and sprayed by orderlies with a hose. Nurses dispensed medications from a glass cage. She found the patients’ treatment “horrific” and discovered a lifelong mission toward compassionate care. “I was very young and very naïve, and I felt like I could make a difference,” NadlerMoodie said. She went to work in an orthopedic surgical unit and honed her skills talking to special patients, like a paranoid schizophrenic that everyone was afraid of. But Nadler-Moodie realized he just needed someone who would listen. She remembered working with a 13-year-old patient who was paralyzed from the neck down. “It was very powerful to me,” she recalled. “He needed me to care for more than just his body.” From there she worked for about eight years at Cornell Medical Center’s psychiatric inpatient unit and went back to school for graduate degree before taking a job at Lenox Hill Hospital. At the time, Lenox Hill had no psychiatric unit and wanted to try a “scatter bed” system, where psychiatric patents were placed throughout the regular floors. Nadler-Moodie was the only psychiatric nurse. “On my first day, they all really hated me,” she said, because many of the nurses were frustrated that the psychiatric patients were on their floors. She had to try and persuade the staff that they had to work together. Her first success came within a few weeks, when the head nurse called her to see an elderly woman who wasn’t eating and wasn’t getting better, no matter what they tried. Nadler-Moodie consulted with the patient and determined she was depressed. After electroconvulsive therapy, the patient was sitting up in bed, talking and eating. She had wanted a hot dog, so the head nurse went down and got a hot dog from a street vendor. See SCRIPPS, page 27

Thank you to the many residents, fellow business owners, and friends who have offered positive feedback, suggestions, and options as we move forward with plans for a new, enhanced Plaza de Santa Fe. I sincerely appreciate your support. We all agree that the Ranch is a special place to live. All of us share a common interest in our lifestyle here and what this community we live in has had to offer over the years. It is unfortunate, however, that over the last few decades one of the cherished elements of the village is eroding away — the retail shops. We all have benefited from increased property values — including in the commercial district — yet, as a consequence, it has become too costly for many basic retail shops to afford to do business here. Recall the many stores that were once a part of our town have moved on. It does not have to continue this way! With the existing economic environment, the disappearance of the market could possibly be another loss to the village. However, today we are starting a new direction in an effort to renew the Ranch and begin a renaissance that will point the village back to its former charm. Spearheading this movement is the new Plaza de Santa Fe project. There has been much misinformation and misinterpretation about this enhanced development in a key location of our village. Not only will this project complement and improve upon what is already here, but it will also serve as a role model for a future direction in the village itself. Contrary to what has been claimed, in my proposal, there will be a market (with a deli, coffee, tea and wine) in the new project. Not only that, it will be enhanced with a pleasant exterior patio dining area, where residents can meet, eat, and socialize while picking up their mail. Right now we have a cold, dark breezeway with people standing at its opening as a place to meet. In addition, the Post Office is also staying in the Plaza, and it will be even more efficient for its employees and customers. My late husband, Roger Woolley, conceptualized and had built Plaza de Santa Fe in 1974. As the Plaza de Santa Fe property owner, I am as concerned as everyone about the path the village has gone. I have a vested interest in not only the Plaza, but in helping the Ranch to thrive. The project I am proposing will enhance the community by spearheading a new direction for the Ranch. It is my desire that this endeavor will inspire other commercial property owners to contemplate alternative ways to satisfy their own investments, yet be able to afford to have some use of their property for private retail stores. The proposed square footage gained with the partial second story at the Plaza will compensate for the loss of income absorbed by me to have a new convenience market to benefit everyone. Working together with positive and creative community input from the large number of practical-minded people who live in this place we affectionately call the “Ranch,” we truly can restore our village to its prior charm. Susan Woolley Owner, Plaza de Santa Fe
Traffic signals will be the death of the Ranch It won’t happen all at once. It will be a long, slow death. A tragedy that is already happening before our very eyes. Imagine a four-lane highway (or two) cutting through our beautiful piece of paradise. Further, imagine traffic signals at five or more troubled intersections throughout the Ranch. Maybe not today, but slowly, over the next 5, 10, 15 years, and there is almost nothing we can do to stop it. Next time you drive down Via de la Valle, notice the extra road width next to the Polo Fields, Polo Point, and Morgan Run. Or in front of Crosby and Cielo. Every time a new development is built, the County takes land for future highway expansion. The final pages of this tragedy are being written. A chain of events is occurring that will one day soon ruin our way of life and the future of our beloved Ranch. Talks of widening County Highway S6 (the Via de la Valle/Del Dios corridor) have been happening for years. Talks have also taken place of widening El Camino and La Noria, from Via de la Valle to Encinitas Boulevard, on the other side of the Ranch. The Association staff has written about the probability of future traffic signals being placed throughout the Ranch at troubled intersections once we install signals on Paseo Delicias. The County has made it clear it is time to decide — signals or roundabouts. Doing nothing is no longer an option. The County is giving us a chance to choose our fate. We need to seize this opportunity. If we choose signals, we are doomed. Our beloved community will be sliced up and fed to suburbia with its four-lane roads and multiple traffic signals. On the other hand, roundabouts could be a wonderful asset. Strategically placed, they could protect The Ranch by creating a cocoon around us that would protect our valuable way of life — a shield that would protect us from future highway widening, future traffic signals, and suburbanization. They would send a message to the County that we want to maintain our status quo, and force it to find another way to move traffic: around us, not through us. With a little foresight, we can turn this tragic story into a fairytale. Get information at: www.rsfroundabouts.com.

We made it! Woo hoo! We made it! At long last, Rancho Santa Fe is being recognized as a leading community, by the Drudge Report, no less! Of course, the link to the washingtonpost.com article was misleadingly entitled: “Celebrities using MORE since drought emergency declared,” rather than: “Rich Californians balk at limits: ‘We’re not all equal when it comes to water,’” as the Washington Post had it, referring to RSF’s increased use of water in April (when everyone else was conserving). But no matter, the dateline boldly states RANCHO SANTA FE, CALIF. We’re on the map, folks! The Washington Post even interviewed Ann Boon, RSF Association president, about the 9 percent increase in RSF’s water use in April. It’s a good thing they didn’t ask her about the proposed swimming pool! I mean, health club — that is, community center — oh, wait, the Covenant Club. That could have reflected, well, negatively on us. So why isn’t the Association’s board pushing water conservation harder? Is it because they are afraid of appearing to be hypocritical when they are pushing so hard for a pool? Or pools? Come on, folks! What’s a little hypocrisy when you’ve got an agenda to push? Richard Amtower, Rancho Santa Fe Editor’s note: During this past year, students in Annika Mizel’s eighth grade English class wrote editorials and created their own magazines. A few of those editorials will be published in the RSF Review over the next several weeks. The first one is below.
Surfing can be a beautiful thing BY ALEX BROWN, R. ROGER ROWE 8TH GRADE STUDENT Surfing is such a beautiful sport. But what is not beautiful is all the people in the lineup that have bad attitudes. Nowadays, everywhere you go it seems like there are crazy locals that are just trying to make your day bad. But in reality, all you want to do is catch a few waves. Those people are ruining it for everyone. What happened to the old days where people were nice out there and actually helped others have a good time? Don’t get me wrong — there are still really friendly surfers in the lineup, but there are many other times when they aren’t so nice. For example, when I first started surfing when I was 10 years old, I went surfing at Swami’s, just trying to catch a few waves and improve my surfing. I was paddling out when someone paddled for a wave but didn’t catch it. When I duck-dived under his missed wave, I came up and hit his board from underneath. It was a total accident — nobody’s fault — but he began a cussing tirade. When the other locals heard him, they began to turn on me, too. I was so upset that I paddled in and got out of the water. When advanced surfers discourage beginning surfers — for instance, a little kid — how do you think it makes them feel? He is probably not going to ever want to surf that spot again. Or even worse, not pick up a board ever again. There are many sponsored groms out in the water that give the kids a hard time. I feel that the way it should be is that those sponsored kids should encourage the other ones to get better, and give them some tips to increase their skill. Because, after all, they were probably that kid once. Just remember, we’re all the same before the first wave. In the end, surfing is not all about who is the best out there. All pro surfers say that it doesn’t matter how good you are, it just matters that you are having a good time. Why bring down someone else just because you aren’t having a good session? The best feeling anyone can get in surfing is catching a super-sick wave. The only thing that makes it better is when someone acknowledges you for it. The surfing community is a great thing, but when other people ruin it, a great thing can turn to rubbish. Next time you’re out in the water, whether you are a sponsored surfer or a local, or just someone that surfs for the joy of it, remember to try and have fun with it and keep a good attitude. After all, surfing is a beautiful thing. Why ruin it by making other people feel bad?

Letters to the editor/Opinion
Education Matters/Opinion Pay to play? The debate over ‘donation’ vs. ‘fee’ BY MARSHA SUTTON Where to begin? So much is happening in the San Dieguito Union High School District that it’s hard to know where to start. Perhaps the best place to start is with my personal pet peeve: charging fees to students who are supposed to receive a free public education. Free public education also includes access to athletics, music, theater and other extracurricular activities. So when I saw the news release in our paper in the May 21 issue, headlined “CCA offers two options for district physicals,” I zeroed in. The two options, as it read, were for prospective Canyon Crest Academy athletes to come either June 3 or June 9 and pay $25 to receive a sports physical (the exam is deemed mandatory, according to California Interscholastic Federation rules). Besides the misleading implication that the only two options for student athletes were to come one of the two nights (when a physical by a student’s primary care physician was also an option), the bigger problem is that the $25 was called a “charge,” not a contribution or voluntary donation. The two sports physical evenings were sponsored by CCA’s foundation, which uses these nights as fundraisers, with the money supporting CCA’s athletic program. Despite good intentions, the phrasing is important. And when districts don’t get it right, they need to set the record straight. And they need to make sure parents who felt misled are given the chance for a refund. What’s aggravating about this is that it’s clearly illegal to charge students for clay or paint when they take art, or uniforms for band, or costumes for theater. How is this different? The district says students must have a physical to play sports, according to CIF rules. But even if families understand that there is the third option to get the physical from their own private physician, the exams still cost money. SDUHSD Superintendent Rick Schmitt apologized for the wording, saying the approved press release labeled the $25 a “voluntary donation,” but somehow — somehow? — it got changed to read “$25 charge.” CCA Principal Karl Mueller said the correct version of the press release — the one that said “requested donation” — was sent to all CCA families in an eblast. He also said the correct version was sent to our paper by a CCA Foundation parent liaison. It’s true that our office received the correct version on May 16. But two days later, the parent liaison sent a revised version of the press release, writing, “There was a mistake in the article I sent you. It is a $25 charge, not a requested donation. Is it possible to publish this updated version instead?” Mueller said he did not know how the wording got changed. Even so, despite the approved version stating the $25 was a voluntary donation, Mueller insisted that the revised version was legal. “A foundation can have a fee for a service,” Mueller said. So the district’s approved version called it a voluntary donation, but labeling it a fee is no problem? Confused by what appeared to be a bit of backpedaling (“We made a mistake but it’s still OK”), I contacted the district office
for clarification. Rick Ayala, SDUHSD’s director of pupil services and alternative programs, said it’s not illegal to charge a fee, but the district prefers to call it a donation. “Legally they’re entitled to charge a fee for a service, even though we want them to use the word ‘donation,’” said Ayala, who oversees the district’s athletic programs. “It’s clear that the second press release that followed Karl’s was submitted without his knowledge,” Ayala said. “There was no intent to do anything wrong. It was a case of lack of communication.” If Mueller didn’t change the wording, then who? “We’re still looking into it,” Mueller told me last week. “We still don’t know,” Ayala said this week. It wasn’t that difficult to figure out. I asked Joanne Couvrette, the executive director of the CCA Foundation, directly — because who else could it have been? “I requested that the language in the press release be clarified from a ‘suggested donation’ to the $25 price,” Couvrette confirmed in an email. “We offer this service as one of the options available to students to comply with the CIF rule requiring a physical as a condition of participating in interscholastic sports,” she added. Couvrette said the $25 is not tax-deductible, because the fair-market value for this service ranges from $50 to $175, which exceeds the foundation’s $25 fee. Because of this, “the IRS will not allow the $25 to be treated as a tax-deductible donation,” she said. So was the district wrong to call it a donation? Or was it wrong to call it a fee? Can’t force a kid to pay Although the district’s position is that foundations can charge a fee for sports physicals (even though it shouldn’t be called a fee), Sally Smith vehemently disagrees. Smith, a San Diego activist, attorney and champion of student rights, has filed numerous complaints with the California Department of Education over illegal fees charged to public school students, and has become known throughout the state for her vigorous defense of the rights of low-income students in particular. “The law provides that a district may require a sports physical,” Smith said in a recent email. “However, if a school district decides to make something mandatory, such as a sports physical or P.E. uniforms …, then the district must provide free of charge. That’s the law.” But here’s the catch: CIF requires medical exams for all high school athletes. “The CIF rule is what districts have said justifies mandatory physicals,” Smith said. “But CIF cannot make rules that are contrary to law. CIF does not supersede the law.” San Dieguito’s position is that requiring physicals is legal as long as schools don’t require students to purchase the exams from them. If students can get their physicals from their own medical doctors, then the district is in the clear. So far the law seems to side with the district. But Smith is not giving up, because there is ambiguity in the wording. Why does all this matter? Because lowincome students deserve access to all that public education has to offer, and students should never be placed in a position of nonparticipation due to lack of money. Neither
can it be required of them to self-identify as poor. “The district’s stance is we’re not going to turn kids away,” Ayala said. “We can’t force a kid to pay.” He said when students express concern about costs, the schools work with them and don’t require proof of financial need. Ayala said he didn’t know what specific instructions volunteers were given if any student at the sports physical evenings said he or she was unable to pay. But the district’s expectation, he said, is that any student who could not afford to pay should be given a physical at no charge. “That’s always been the arrangement,” he said. Couvrette said if that had occurred, “we would have provided the service at no charge for that person.” “Our fundraising event for sports physicals is very popular with parents,” she said. Both nights were fully booked, “because the price is very low, it is very convenient and it is an easy option.” But she stressed it was not the only option. She said parents are free to obtain the physical through their own physician — even though this fact was buried in the announcement that was distributed. The communication breakdown is worrisome. Foundations cannot be permitted to distribute information to the press and public without some oversight by the district. But this can get murky. On the one hand, foundations need to maintain some degree of autonomy. There needs to be a clear demarcation between the district and the foundation. A too-cozy relationship spells trouble. This is where the Del Mar Union School District got into trouble in the early years of its foundation. On the other hand, oversight on communication that goes out to the public from school foundations is necessary, to ensure the law and district policies are being followed. Ayala said he would address the issue with all the principals — and presumably with foundation directors as well. Said Supt. Schmitt, “Our position is unchanged about the legality of foundations using a fee for service. That said, I’m disappointed with the inconsistency with the way we phrased it. We will get it right in the future.” Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@ gmail.com.
The athlete formerly known as Bruce Jenner BY RANDI CRAWFORD Unless I say something like “Caitlyn Jenner is a hero,” I’m going to be known as politically incorrect. But I call BS on that. I’m sick of feeling censored for fear that I might say the wrong thing. After watching the twopart series of KUWTK, which focused on Bruce Jenner’s transition, it made me sad. The episodes were set up as interviews with each member of the family, discussing how they feel about Bruce’s transition. It brought up a lot of really weird stuff that I couldn’t imagine processing if I were his kid. Frankly, I couldn’t imagine processing it if I were his friend. Imagine that one day you are playing golf at the country club with your buddy Bruce, and all of a sudden you can no longer go hang out in the men’s grill and drink a beer together? At the time of the interview, he was still Bruce, but it felt like Bruce was “dying” and that a woman was going to emerge in his place. And as I write this, Caitlyn shocked all of us recently, with her magazine cover, “Call me Caitlyn.” When I first saw the image, I was in shock. I get it, shock value works, and then when we see her in a dress, it might not seem so radical. I start to think about the things Bruce said during his interview with Diane Sawyer, and how he knew he was in the wrong body from the time he was very young. Can you imagine Bruce Jenner transitioning in the 1970s? It’s literally unimaginable. I equally can’t imagine going 65 years living with so many lies. The internal conflict would be too much for most people to handle. But here’s where I get itchy ... Why do a show on E! entertainment instead of using a more trusted network? If the goal is to help others in her position, and to educate the public about the reality of living as a trans, why turn it into a circus? The Vanity Fair cover has already opened her up to a lot of criticism from her own community. There are lots of trans people who fear that they will never look like
Caitlyn Jenner, because they don’t have the means to get all the surgeries, the hormones, the clothes, the Annie Leibovitz photo shoot and the Malibu lifestyle. The public format in which she chooses to tell her story, I would think, is critical to maintaining her credibility. I recently watched a story about a 6 year-old child who believed he/she was a transgender. The mother was in a near-fatal car accident with her child, and thought that if they had died, and she had denied her child the right to be who he/she really was, she would never be able to live with herself. So she let her 6-year-old live her life as a trans. Does anyone know whether 6-year-olds really understand their gender identity? The whole point is that it’s not our place to judge. It’s our job to try and understand. It’s all getting so complex. I was scrolling through Twitter and saw the new face of MAC cosmetics. This gal was stunning. And then I read that she was a he who transitioned. I just stared at that image and it all became a blur. I would have never known, had the article not stated it. I feel like the more images that I see online, the more confused I’m getting between women and men. Of course we’re interested in Caitlyn Jenner’s story. She is an icon. She was on the Wheaties box when she was a he. It’s a lot to process. Therefore I don’t like to feel that anyone who questions the life of a trans is demonized. Hopefully, Caitlyn’s story engenders constructive dialogue that will lead to a much greater understanding and acceptance of the transgender community. What say you?

Superintendent Schmitt’s monthly update: bell schedule ideas, program options BY RICK SCHMITT Superint e n d e n t Schmitt regularly updates the greater San Dieguito Union High School District c o m m u n i t y Rick Schmitt through our local media with a monthly update. Topics will include curriculum, assessment, facilities, budget, enrollment, safety, and other specific and special interest topics. Today’s topics include 2016-17 bell schedule ideas and increased program options at LCCHS and TPHS, along with an update on AP testing and our new state exams. 2016-17 Bell Schedule Ideas and Program Options at La Costa Canyon and Torrey Pines High School Staff from TPHS, LCCHS, and the district recently have been investigating various bell schedule options for implementation during the 2016-17 school year. A tentative schedule has been developed that will allow students to take more than six classes while not extending the school day, thus allowing students at
the two schools more opportunities to engage in a broader course of study similar to the Canyon Crest and San Dieguito HS Academies. During the fall of the 201516 school year, both TPHS and LCCHS will evaluate various instructional minute options to determine which option best fits each school’s needs, while promoting schedule flexibility and choice for our students and families. With the opportunity for students at LCC and TPHS to take more than six classes beginning with the 2016-17 academic year, district and site staff are also exploring a variety of potential new academic and elective program options at each school for the 2016-’17 school year. The goal of this exploration is to identify programs that would be attractive to students. No decisions have been made about any particular programs, but areas of initial interest include Engineering, Biomedicine, or other Science-Technology-Engineering-Mathematics (STEM) pathways, Project-Based Learning, and the International Baccalaureate program. STEM pathways are sequences of courses designed to develop skill and exper-
tise in a particular STEM-related field such as Engineering. Course sequences typically move from introductory to advanced and culminate with some real-world experience such as an internship in the workplace. Project-Based Learning is an instructional model in which students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to a complex, typically multi-disciplinary, question, problem, or challenge. Key features of PBL include critical thinking and problem-solving, and research skills applied to a real-world problem or challenge. Students typically work in small teams over extended periods of time to research the challenge and develop, critique and revise solutions with the product ultimately presented to experts outside the school setting. This program simulates college and workplace lab environments. International Baccalaureate is a rigorous internationally-respected curriculum and diploma program that is used in schools around the world. The program outlines a prescribed curriculum and includes external assessments via which
students can earn college credit for a wide variety of courses. Through the IB program, students can choose to pursue an IB diploma in addition to their high school diploma by completing a sequence of courses and passing a variety of embedded assessments, or students can simply take IB classes of interest to them without pursuing the IB diploma. In the fall of 2015, staff, students and families will be engaged in discussion of various program options as part of the decision-making process around program offerings. Final decisions about bell schedule and program changes at LCCHS and TPHS will be made with ample time for our families to make thoughtful and informed choices in regards to selecting a high school for the 2016-17 school year. Advanced Placement and New State Exams During April and May we were busy administering AP exams to our high school students and the new statewide Smarter Balanced Assessments Consortium tests in English Language Arts and mathematics to our students in grades 7, 8, and 11. This year, SDUHSD administered an astounding 7,412 AP Exams to students, a test increase of over 225 from the previous year and a new SDUHSD record for participation. Since 2004, as we have expanded access to Honors & AP courses, the total number of students taking AP exams has doubled while the pass rate has improved from 62% to 83%. The new SBAC tests were conducted over the course of the last two months at all of our schools and we are proud that our very high participation rate significantly exceeds the California Department of Education requirement for accountability purposes. This year, the results will be used as a baseline for students, schools, and districts, with new score reports forthcoming during the summer. The new SBAC tests are very similar to what AP tests have always been, with a focus on critical thinking and problem solving. The new state standards and related tests are aligned to the new SAT and ACT exams. We are so proud of our students — another fabulous year! Compliments also go out to our active, informed and involved parent community. We are listening to you. Over the course of the year, I enjoyed over 20 parent information sessions at each of our schools and was also able to visit each elementary district for sessions with K-6 parents. I always enjoy hearing from parents during these informal Q&A sessions. I will be scheduling parent session at each of our schools again in 2015-16. Have a safe, restful and enjoyable summer. First day of school is Aug. 25, 2015! You can follow Superintendent Schmitt on Facebook, (https://www.facebook.com/ sduhsd), and Twitter, (https://twitter.com/SDUHSD_Supt).

Tres Palomas thoroughbred farm to be part of July 11 Boots and Bridles tour
Happy birthday to the U.S. Army The Spirit of Liberty Foundation delivered the U.S. Army’s 240th Birthday cake recently to the Army Recruiting Center in Mira Mesa. Richard Rovsek, a Rancho Santa Fe resident, is the founder of the Spirit of Liberty Foundation and the creator of the America’s Freedom Bell, which travels the country and was a part of Flag Day celebrations in Philadelphia on June 14. The date represents the bell’s second birthday and the 240th birthday of the U.S. Army. Courtesy photo
The Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society recently announced a gem in the crown of its first Boots and Bridles Barn Tour. Tres Palomas, a thoroughbred farm with a meticulously manicured 15-acre property with barns and fences neatly trimmed in hunter green and white, is a paradise for horses and people. On July 11, the estate will be open to the public in support of the Historical Society and in honor of the community’s equestrian heritage. In addition to Tres Palomas, there will be four other barn estates ranging from very large to small family compounds. If you think you know barns, think again. In Rancho Santa Fe, horse facilities come equipped with fireplaces, Oriental carpets and even apartments. For the equines, there are treadmills, massage treatments, showers, heat lamps and laser treatments to keep these athletes in top physical condition.
Tres Palomas Barn and rider. Golf and tennis have always been a big part of the Ranch, but the society is proud to focus on equestrian life this year, said event chairwoman Peggy Brooks. Rancho Santa Fe has more than 50 miles of horse trails, in addition to show facilities to test every discipline from Hunters, Jumpers, Dressage and Western. Comfortable shuttle buses will run between the estates from 1:30-5 p.m., when the open-air party starts in the middle of town. The “Barn Party” will have live kickin’ music, food and libations, so wear your boots and get ready to line dance. To buy tickets, call the Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society at 858-756-9291 or visit ranchosantafehistoricalsociety.org.

OBITUARIES
William Carmen Chasey 1940 – 2015 Bill passed away in San Diego, CA, after a valiant six-year battle with Multiple Myeloma and Leukemia. Bill was a man of many God given interests and talents. He was an educator, Marine, research scientist, lobbyist, pilot, author, inventor, political advisor, entrepreneur and humanitarian.
The son of William and Hazel Chasey, Bill grew up in Trenton, NJ, where he attended Pennsbury High. He earned his BA from Springfield College, an MA from East Carolina State and his PhD from the University of Maryland in 1969. In 1985, he was awarded the Doctor of Humane Letters from National University, for his humanitarian work and public service. Inspired by the film, Battle Cry, Bill joined the U.S. Marine Corps during his freshman year of college. He was commissioned at graduation and was honourably discharged in 1965 as a First Lieutenant. His was a lifetime of service and dedication to making a difference in the world. In particular, he was a man on a mission to make life better for children with disabilities and those in need. Dr. Chasey had a stellar
academic career devoted to the study of mentally and physically disabled children at the Universities of Texas, Ohio State and George Washington. He held the first and only John F. Kennedy Chair and Professorship at Vanderbilt University (1972-1975). Bill left the halls of academia to become a Washington lobbyist. Two of his proudest achievements were getting Congress to pass the Education for All Handicapped Children Act in 1975 and crafting the Central American Peace Plan in 1987, for which Oscar Arias, President of Costa Rica, received the Nobel Peace Prize. As an advisor to Ronald Reagan during his 1980 Presidential campaign, Bill spearheaded the first National Christian Voter Registration Program. He and his wife, Virginia, founded The Third World Prosthetics Foundation in
1987, providing thousands of free prosthetics to victims of land mines in Central America. They received the Humanitarian Award for their work in 1990, from Alfredo Cristiani, President of El Salvador. Bill wrote a number of books on the 1988 bombing of Pan Am 103. At the time of his death, he was in pre-production on a film titled Influence, based on his writings and experiences during that time. The Chaseys moved to Poland in 1997, where Bill served as a consultant to the International and Polish Red Cross. Moved by the poverty he saw in Eastern/Central Europe, he started the Foundation for Corporate Social Responsibility in 2002. To date, FCSR has fed over 5 million hot meals and provided English, dance and music programs to some of Poland’s
and Bulgaria’s neediest children. Bill remained FCSR’s President and CEO until his death. He was a wonderful husband, a loving father and a faithful friend. Bill had the incredible gift of touching the lives of everyone he met. He had a keen sense of humor that brought laughter to every occasion. His heartfelt interest in people and their personal stories made everyone feel special. In the end, he wanted to be remembered as a man who lived his faith everyday and a man who was just a servant to his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He leaves behind his beloved wife of 36 years, Virginia; daughter, Katie; sister, Georgianne; two daughters by a previous marriage, Cherie and Christie; two grandchildren, Zoe and Occie; plus so many other family members he

enjoyed. Bill would want to give thanks to the wonderful doctors and nurses on the Bone Marrow Transplant Teams at both Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and Moores Cancer Center, San Diego. They all became like second family to him and Virginia. An open celebration of Bill’s life will be held on Saturday, June 27, 2015, 10:30 AM at The Village Presbyterian Church, 6225 Paseo Delicias, Rancho Santa Fe. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Foundation for Corporate Social Responsibility, www.fcsr.pl.

The nurse had seen the benefits of the scatter system and Nadler-Moodie’s influence, and encouraged colleagues to be more open. Nadler-Moodie was at Lenox Hill for five years and said she might still be there, had she not become a mother. When her son was born in 1983, she and her husband, psychiatrist Dr. Larry Moodie, were considering leaving New York to raise their family. He went to San Diego to interview for a job. When Larry called and told her he was interviewing in sunny Balboa Park with a doctor wearing Birkenstocks, Nadler-Moodie took one look outside at the snow that seemed like it was stacked all the way up to their place on the 19th floor and consulted: “Take the job.� The job was at Kaiser, where he continues to work. Her son Brett is now a lawyer, and her son Justin, an artist, came back to San Diego after college to teach at his alma mater, Torrey Pines High, and also at Canyon Crest Academy. While her children were young, NadlerMoodie worked mostly part time doing consulting and teaching out of the UC San Diego extension. She came to Scripps Mercy Hospital in Hillcrest in 1994 to oversee a reorganization of care delivery and educate a psychiatric unit. The work evolved into a position, and she has been there for the past 20 years. She now works two days a week. At 64, Nadler-Moodie said she is often asked when she is retiring. “I am retired. I work two days a week and I love it,� she said. “I couldn’t do less than this.� While Scripps Mercy is the only one of

the five Scripps hospitals in San Diego to have a psychiatric unit, all hospitals get psych patients. “One in four people has a mental health challenge,� Nadler-Moodie said. “It’s very prevalent. So a lot of patients get found on other floors.� Her role as a clinical nurse specialist involves staff support, policy work, consulting on difficult patients and providing a lot of education about care. “One of my biggest passions is working with staff to eliminate restraint use,� NadlerMoodie said. “That’s something I’m most proud of.� In 2009, Mercy received an award from the National Alliance on Mental Illness for restraint reduction, having gone 16 months without using restraints. Nadler-Moodie helps the staff with guidance, support and education about alternative techniques and approaches to use to calm patients. It is one of the biggest challenges of her work, but it’s where she has found a lot of success. Her newest project at Mercy is incorporating psychiatric nurses into the medical surgical setting. She said often nurses don’t feel confident that they have the right skills to work with patients with mental health challenges, so there is a need for more psychiatric nurses and psychiatric clinicians. Already she has seen three psychiatric nurses hired for general acute- care units. “All psychiatric patients are in recovery; they all can reach a level of functioning,� Nadler-Moodie said. “That may be different for each of us, but we work toward helping patients meet the highest level of achievement that they can.�

“Our community is unusual in that it is zoned with many large lots with lots of landscaping, ranchettes and horses,” Bardin said. “It takes a lot of water to maintain these properties. As a result, our water use is high and so the state has given us the highest level of cutbacks — 36 percent less than what was used in 2013.”

from the students’ education. The projected cost of the new program is $154,000, and the board approved a stipend for teacher Crystal Foley to develop a comprehensive Spanish program this summer. The other option Delaney was considering was having parents opt their children out of the enrichment wheel entirely and substitute with Spanish. Delaney said the option was not ideal because students would miss out on art, music, drama, ocean science or technology. At the June 4 regular board meeting, the board heard about the results of the foreign language survey from Cathy CirinaChu, managing director of the social science research laboratory at San Diego State University. While the parents surveyed felt strongly that Spanish should be included at the elementary school level, opinions varied about how it should be implemented. The survey was sent to 798 parent email addresses and 29 teachers. The response rate was 26 percent for parents and 78 percent from teachers. Cirina-Chu said as the response rate was not “robust,” the results may or may not be generalizable to all school parents. “I am surprised by the lack of participation and ambiguity of the results,” trustee Todd Buchner said. Trustee Tyler Seltzer asked Cirina-Chu why she thought the response rate was so low. She said she could only speculate. “My guess is that obviously parents care about their kids and the school, but the low response could mean ‘We’re happy with what the school is doing, we trust the administration and whatever they decide is fine,’” Cirina-Chu said.
POLO Neighbor Cory Hao said he has been supportive of the Polo Club and the soccer uses in the past, but noted that traffic and parking really need to be addressed. “If that lot goes away, where are they going to put all those cars? The Surf Cup brings 2,500 to 3,000 cars per event,” Hao said. The board members also expressed that they would like to see the trail easement on the property remain part of the San Dieguito River Park’s Coast to Crest trail, and that the leasee won’t oppose a potential roundabout solution on El Camino Real when the road is eventually widened from San Dieguito Road to Via de la Valle. Board member Ken Farinsky said he would like to see the property used as a city park rather than a for-profit use. Farinsky said he would also like the RFP to require more visible signage that the land is public space and open for the community’s use. When soccer and polo are not in session, the land is open to the public. People are frequently seen running around the property or playing on the grass. Krista Bonaguidi, the president of the Fairbanks Polo Club Homeowners Association, the neighborhood that overlooks the club, said she has concerns that the proposed language regarding events in the RFP was changed from the original deed. In the original deed, events are allowed for 25 cal-
The overwhelming majority of parents surveyed (91 percent) felt that providing foreign language in the younger grades is very important or somewhat important, with 72 percent responding that it was very important. Teachers were less likely to say that K-5 foreign language was important, with only 19 percent responding that it was very important. More than half of the parents felt foreign language should begin in kindergarten, while only 24 percent of teachers felt it should start in kindergarten. Of the teacher respondents, 19 percent thought it should start in first grade, 24 percent felt it should begin in sixth grade and 10 percent said it was not necessary at all. Seventy-eight percent of parents believed that exposure to foreign language is just as important for students as exposure to art, music, public speaking, science and technology. The majority of teachers surveyed — 81 percent — did not believe that foreign language was important enough to reduce time used for reading, writing, math or science, although parents were split, with 45 percent believing it was important enough to reduce time on other subjects. Fifty-six percent of parents believed the foreign language program should provide mastery, while 64 percent felt that they would like their children to be exposed to language, even at an introductory level. While she said she was disappointed by the low participation numbers, Delaney said the survey was helpful in determining how the district should proceed. She said her problem in the past with Spanish was that she didn’t feel the carry-over or level of mastery was good from year to year, but she thinks they can remedy that with the new Spanish program. continued from page 1
endar days, but the new RFP changed it to 25 events. Given that the Surf Cup could count as one event even though it lasts for two weekends, Bonaguidi is concerned that there will be no limitations on how long an event can be. Twenty-five events could mean an event every other weekend of the year, she said. The board echoed the concern about the number of events and city official Farst said it would be considered as the RFP is prepared. Polo Club Vice President Anakar said because the RFP is still a work in progress, the club is not aware of all the details that will be included, but they have been kept informed of the planning board and other neighboring groups’ concerns. “This property has become a landmark for the community, not only with equestrian and youth sport uses, but keeping the field open and green,” Anakar said, adding that he feels most of the community wants to see it remain an open field with active uses. “If we meet all the environmental requirements and cooperate with the city on road widening and public trails, I think we can work on a plan together. I think this is the best use of the property for many years to come.”

• Alex Jen is curating his second exhibit, ‘Hide and Seek: Exploring the Abstract,’ which opens June 27 BY KAREN BILLING Alex Jen, a 2015 Torrey Pines High School graduate, has been relentless in his pursuit of a career in the art world, crafting his own art education using the promising connections he has made. Alex wanted to learn curating in preparation for a degree in art history. So he emailed the education department at the Museum of Contemporary Art 26 times over the course of five months to land an internship that didn’t really exist. His persistence and drive earned him the internship in 2013, and he has been there ever since — moving into a position in advancement. There the 17-year-old has learned about grant writing, fundraising and corporate sponsorship. He’s learning not only about the paintings on the wall but how to keep the paintings on the wall — the business behind a museum. Not satisfied with just learning, he wanted to curate, assigning himself a senior project to host his own art show. “I wanted to do a project that featured San Diego artists and have my first try at curating a show and what I was going to be getting into at college,” Alex said. Alex curated his first show, “PROCESS,” in February, a collection of sketches and small works at the Athenaeum Music and Arts Library in La Jolla. His second, more ambitious show, “Hide and Seek: Exploring the Abstract,” launches June 27 at the Woodbury University School of Architecture in San Diego. “Hide and Seek” features UC San Diego master of fine arts degree candidates Tanya Brodsky, Audrey Hope, Kara Joslyn and Patrick Shields; Columbia University bachelor of fine arts degree candidate Cheeyeon; and Jamie Derringer, foundAlex Jen. Photo courtesy er and executive director of Design Milk, an online magazine Andrew Rhee dedicated to art and design. The opening will be from 6-9 p.m. and will feature live music from the bands Paper Days and Freshmen. Not an artist himself, Alex loves reading and writing about art, visiting museums and discovering new artists. In addition to his internship at MOCA, he also recently finished a
yearlong internship at Quint Gallery in La Jolla. Last summer, Alex participated in the Pacific Arts Movement’s Reel Voices program, a 12-week summer internship to help students learn about film production and how to become socially conscious storytellers. His film, “This Is Not a Pipe Dream: Asians Breaking Into the Arts,” premiered at the San Diego Asian Film Festival and was nominated for a San

For Father’s Day, consider some manly pampering at V’s Barbershop Scott McDaniel is bringing the old-fashioned barbershop back to San Diego. As the owner of V’s Barbershop in Del Mar, McDaniel recently opened his second location in Carlsbad. “This new location is important because it’s a wonderful market,” said Jim Valenzuela, founder and CEO of V’s Barbershop. “In all of Southern California, you’d be hard-pressed to find better. It’s a community, which is important to barbershops, and we want to be a part of it.” McDaniel first discovered V’s Barbershop during a trip to Arizona. Headquartered and founded in Phoenix, the company is known for its authentic, upscale barbershop experience. “What sets V’s a part is the experience, the environment and the quality of the services,” McDaniel said. “It’s a quality experience in addition to quality service.” Since the company was founded in 1999, it has grown to more than 30 locations across the country. In 2011, McDaniel, a Del Mar resident, opened his first shop in his hometown, off Via de la Valle in the Haggen’s shopping center. The store was the company’s 13th location. The new Carlsbad site, which opened mid-May, is the 31st. “We’ve grown significantly in the last four years,” said McDaniel, who worked in the software industry for 20 years before becoming a franchisee. “The men’s grooming industry has undergone a resurgence, a renovation. There’s been a lot of growth.” Located in the La Costa Town Square, the 1,200-square-foot Carlsbad site offers a variety of services, including high-quality haircuts, straight razor shaves, moustache and beard trims, men’s facials, massages and shoe shines. With Father’s Day around the corner, V’s Barbershop also offers gift cards and a variety of packages. For just $80, the Whole Deal treatment at V’s Barbershop includes a haircut, shampoo, straight-razor shave, facial, face and shoulder massage, and hot towels. “Once somebody comes in and gives us a try, they’re almost guaranteed to come back,” McDaniel said. The Carlsbad shop is at 7615 Via Campanile, Suite 116, in Carlsbad. Store hours are 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. The store is closed Mondays. Appointments and walk-ins are welcome. Call 760-753-4321 or visit vbarbershop.com.

Dancer steps up to help Shriners Hospitals with June 26 party in RSF BY KRISTINA HOUCK Through her newly launched company, The Artist Society, dancer Kirsten Allen of Rancho Santa Fe is inviting the community to party for a good cause. With food, drinks and live entertainment, “A Cause for a Party” will benefit Shriners Hospitals for Children on June 26 at The Crosby Club in Rancho Santa Fe. “Giving back is the most beautiful feeling,” Allen said. “It’s why I dance.” The party takes place 7:30-10 p.m. June 26 at The Crosby Club, 17102 Bing Crosby Blvd. Tickets cost $100 and include food, three drinks and the show. A ballet dancer since she was 5 years old, Allen started dancing professionally at 16. She has danced with the Suzanne Farrell Ballet and the Sacramento Ballet, where she Kirsten Allen’s “Cause for a Party” will benefit Shriners worked from 1995 until 2009, when she became pregnant Hospitals for Children on June 26. with her first son. During her time with the Sacramento Ballet, Allen performed numerous times at the Northern California Shriners Hospital in Sacramento, which is part of a network of 22 medical facilities across North America. Now a mother of two, Allen has recently started performing again. Wanting to again give back to the community through dance, she and her dance partner, Jared Nelson, cofounded The Artist Society in March. “The Artist Society is a mix of art and giving back,” Allen said. “We strongly believe in the power and beauty of both of these elements and feel they serve a tremendous purpose no matter how fast-paced our world has become.”
“A Cause for a Party” is the company’s first event, benefiting Shriners Hospitals for Children. “For each show we do, we want to link to a different organization,” Allen explained. “Because Shriners is so near and dear to my heart, I really wanted to have that as the first charity.” The event will feature an open bar, food and a live show, including singer-songwriters Matt and Jasmine Commerce and comedian Lauren O’Brien. Allen and Nelson will also perform three pieces. “If you are looking to have a fantastic night while supporting a wonderful cause, this is your night,” Allen said. For information about the event or The Artist Society, visit www.theartistsociety.net.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Prepare to be floored by store-closing sale at Golden Rugs Gallery •Go lden Rugs Gallery to move to new location BY DIANE Y. WELCH Interior designers know that the choice of floor covering in a home is critical for the look, feel and ambiance of the space. An area rug, for example, can set the tone for the color palette and the aesthetic of everything else in a room. Keenly aware of this design strategy is Houchang “Michael” Mikaeli, founder of Golden Rugs Gallery. His store — established in 1992 and located at 7160 Miramar Road, Suite 126 in San Diego — maintains a large variety of high-quality area rugs that cater to every design aspect of a home’s interior, whether the approach is contemporary, decorative, tribal or antique. His family has been involved in the rug business for three generations, so Golden Rugs’ knowledge of all aspects of the rug manufacturing business runs deep. As much as he is passionate about rugs, Mikaeli above all values his clientele. When people come into the store they are given a brief history of all the rugs. “There is a story to each one,” said Mikaeli. As the family patriarch, Mikaeli has devoted much of his life to the rug industry and along the way has educated his son and daughters about the business. After being in the family business since
1968, Mikaeli recently decided to retire and soon Golden Rugs will end its decades-long lease at its main gallery headquarters. The business, however, will continue to operate at 7190 Miramar Road, suite 101105, under the stewardship of son Jason Mikaeli. Customers will benefit from a rare opportunity to get the best deals possible before the store closes. With a huge inventory to move, Mikaeli stated, “Don’t be shy, give us your offer!” The Mikaeli family, Christians of Kurdish-Chaldean descent, originate from the Middle Eastern city of Bidjar in the Kurdistan Province of Iran, long-famed for its exquisite rugs. The entire family has been involved in the rug business for three generations. Youhana Mikaeli began making rugs in Bidjar in 1945. He naturally passed his knowledge of rugs on to his son Houchang. Following the end of the Shah era in Iran, Mikaeli moved with his wife, Samiran, and their three children — Jason, Jessica and Jennifer — to Denmark in 1980 where he continued in the rug business. In 1992, he relocated his family to San Diego where he established Golden Rugs Gallery. Ken Khoury has been collecting Persian See RUGS, page B14

Let’s talk about something retirement communities hardly ever mention. Accreditation. Because having the confidence and peace of mind of accreditation is important. So, let’s talk. La Vida Del Mar is accredited by CARF International. It’s an independent organization that sets exceedingly high standards for care and service. It’s a lot like an accreditation for a hospital or college. Or a five-star rating for a hotel. But like most things in life, you have to see it to believe it. So, let’s talk some more at a complimentary lunch and tour. Please call 858.345.2521 to schedule.

SPONSORED COLUMNS MICHAEL PINES Accident & Injury Legal Advice 858.551.2090
The Loss of Work in the Aftermath 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. One small study found that low income and unemployment were quite common in the aftermath of a traumatic brain injury, leading many into difficult financial positions. “Column continued at http://www.ranchosantafereview. com/news/2013/dec/10/the-loss-ofwork-in-the-aftermath-traumaticbrain/

Prince Lorenzo de’ Medici reception held at Del Mar Country Club A VIP private reception was hosted June 12 by May Zawaideh and Alexander Salazar in honor of Prince Lorenzo Maria Raimondo de’ Medici at the Del Mar Country Club in Rancho Santa Fe. The invitation was extended to patrons of the arts from San Diego, Mexico, Orange County and Los Angeles. Prince Lorenzo de’ Medici is the descendent and heir to the famous Medici dynasty of Florence. The Medici family were a legendary political dynasty and banking family, which later became a royal house. Among them were four Popes and two queens. Being the wealthiest and most influential family in Europe during the Renaissance period, they supported the art of Michelangelo, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and many more. The 39-year-old Prince engaged the guests with his family’s stories in his charming Italian accent and great sense of humor. He shared how as a passionate artist he is reviving the Renaissance images of the portraits of his ancestors into contemporary paintings filled with iconic messages and representation of detail that perpetuates their immense legacy. Prince Lorenzo is a multi-lingual historian, a Great Magister in the Knights Order of San Martino in Rome, a modern trendsetter with an MBA in fashion design and luxury goods from Bologna University, and an expert in Italian food. He shared his secret tiramisu recipe with Chef Tommy at the club who masterfully created it for the guests as the final course coupled with Italian music and song. Photos by Vincent Andrunas.

Diego County of Education Innovative Video in Education award. The title is a riff on Rene Magritteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;This Is Not a Pipeâ&#x20AC;? painting, and the documentary deals with the pressure Asian artists feel about pursuing a career in the arts and ultimately how important it is for artists to follow their passions. While at Torrey Pines, Alex was also the arts and entertainment editor of the Falconer school newspaper. He is able to list New York Timesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic Holland Cotter as a mentor after a chance encounter at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston. Alex was there with the Asian American Journalists Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s J Camp, and he recognized Cotter. The pair began corresponding, with Cotter offering critiques of Alexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Curating is almost like storytelling, like journalism; thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a story that goes through the exhibit, and people feel and see it,â&#x20AC;? Alex said. His first show, at the Athenaeum, was in a very small space: between bookcases at the library. He learned that he needed to â&#x20AC;&#x153;cater the art to the space youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re inâ&#x20AC;? and to really think about the works that could fill it. He focused on sketches and small works of three artists, Cheeyeon (whom he had interviewed for his documentary) and high school artists Anna Huang and Claire Kwon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It inspired me to go bigger for my next show,â&#x20AC;? said Alex, who began planning â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hide and Seekâ&#x20AC;? in November. To hand-pick his featured artists, Alex attended the UCSD Open Studios show in March, and looked at all of the MFA candidatesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; works online. He singled out the ones he liked and emailed them about his show, scheduling studio visits and learning more about the artists and their works.
Alex drew inspiration for the show from Forrest McGillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gorgeousâ&#x20AC;? exhibit at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, the summer before his senior year. The exhibit featured the unusual pairing of ancient art and contemporary art and emphasized the ways a work grabs a viewerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention. Alex said the exhibit was influential â&#x20AC;&#x201D; more about peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reactions to art, and how people look and think about what they are seeing. With â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hide and Seek,â&#x20AC;? Alex said he wants to focus on artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; original abstractions, â&#x20AC;&#x153;re-emphasize the links abstraction has held with an artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intuition and experimentation,â&#x20AC;? and the decisions they make to express them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to bring it back to my first experience with art, which is seeing and looking,â&#x20AC;? said Alex, who wrote all of the wall texts to accompany the pieces. The wall text, he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;focuses on materiality, what the art is made out of instead of heavy-based theory. Not to discredit theory, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m interested in what the artist wants to say and what I want to say as a curator.â&#x20AC;? He developed a 20-page booklet to accompany the show, designed and photographed by Grace Bruton, a Falconer staff photographer. The booklet features artist biographies and photos of their works. Because Alex didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want anything to stop people from attending his show, he arranged for the booklets to be printed for free, covered by Charlie Affourtit of the Stephen Gould Corporation. The space at Woodbury used to be a factory, now repurposed as a 30-foot-by-50-foot gallery space with 14-foot-tall ceilings. The space is huge compared with his last setting, so he had Canyon Crest Academy student Joseph Hwang help him build a scale model

rugs for more than 50 years, inheriting a number from his own family and purchasing many from Golden Rugs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have come in contact with many rug dealers through the years and without question the Mikaeli family has been the best of them all by far,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are generous and highly knowledgeable and take a sincere interest in their clients and their needs. They never pressure and as such create long-term relationships,â&#x20AC;? Khoury said. The family has experience in all kinds of Oriental rugs, pay top dollar for trade-in rugs, provide financing, offer free shipping out-of-state, provide storage and carry modern and antique kilims. Besides dealing in rugs, the Mikaeli family has expertise in cleaning and repairing, as well as appraising rugs and educating clients about a rugâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s origins. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important that clients understand the levels of workmanship as well as how rugs differ from one region of the world to another in both quality and design,â&#x20AC;? Mikaeli explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We feel it is essential to inform our clients about various rugs when they make their purchase, because the more informed the client, the easier it will be to find the right rug for their needs,â&#x20AC;? he added. Khoury had praise for the Mikaeli familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honesty and integrity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They give you a straight and reliable explanation,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These traits are not often found in this business and I cannot more highly recommend the family and their establishment.â&#x20AC;?

He will be doing the installation on June 20 with help from Drei Kiel, an art handler from the Quint Gallery. The opportunity to show at Woodbury was made possible by a connection with Miki Iwasaki, an architect he interviewed for his documentary. All of Alexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s art connections have been made in just a short time by a high school student motivated by the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your backup plan?â&#x20AC;? question he is asked when he tells people he wants to study art history. Persistence, he said, is the only way he knows to get what he wants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much to learn,â&#x20AC;? said Alex, who will attend Williams University in the fall with an economics double major. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My end goal is to do something in the arts.â&#x20AC;?
