The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe shares step-down housing plans BY KAREN BILLING The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe is moving forward with plans to build step-down housing in the village by demolishing and redeveloping some buildings and adding 13 total dwelling units in several different neighborhood “pods” across the 21 acres it owns. John Kratzer, president and CEO of JMI Realty, led an informational meeting on the project at The Inn on July 23. It was initially meant to be a presentation to the Rancho Santa Fe Senior Center but evolved into more of a community meeting because of the level of interest; about 50 people attended. Kratzer said The Inn is fairly early in the development process. It has received Covenant Design Review
Committee approval of the master plan concept and the boundary adjustment (bifurcating the hotel from the residential uses) and has also gone through extensive review with the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District and developed a fire management plan. The Inn has just begun the Association’s Covenant modification process on one neighborhood pod, The Grove — the lot is approved for three homes and they would like to take it to five. Kratzer said they have started to reach out to key neighbors such as the RSF Senior Center, as the modification requires a two-thirds approval from surrounding neighbors within 500 feet of the project.

Rancho Santa Fe’s Taylor Fritz widely considered ‘new face of American tennis’
An Edition of 3702 Via de la Valle Suite 202W Del Mar, CA 92014 858-756-1403 www.rsfreview.com Taylor Fritz. Courtesy photo
BY ROB LEDONNE It’s being said in outlets such as USA Today and on ESPN: Taylor Fritz, the 17-year-old former Torrey Pines High School student, is “the most exciting young tennis player in the world,” “the savior of US men’s tennis,” “the next Andy Roddick,” and, according to the The Los Angeles Times, “the next big thing in tennis,” period. So what does Fritz think of all of the recent attention being
showered upon him? “It’s amazing,” he said, quickly adding that he tries not to let the adoration and hype go to his head. “It’s a great accomplishment, but a lot of people have been hyped up in the past who haven’t lived up to it. So I try not to get too cocky about it.” As the first American in more than a decade to ascend to the No. 1 slot in the junior world rankings (the last person to capture that title was Roddick him-
self in 2003), Fritz is making a worldwide name for himself in the sport, which he first started playing at his home in Rancho Santa Fe when he was just 2 years old. “My earliest memory was playing at the tennis court at my house with some college guys and my dad,” he remembered. “I think they took it easy on me.” Fritz points to his parents, Guy and Kathy — former players See TAYLOR, page 24

Rancho Santa Fe Association Board Biz: Let’s talk about parking in the Village BY ANN BOON, PRESIDENT, RANCHO SANTA FE ASSOCIATION BOARD It seems as though we have been talking about parking problems in the Village forever. To be candid, it is probably because we have been. And I’m going to be talking about parking a lot in the coming weeks. Honestly, it is inconvenient when you can’t find a place to park along La Granada when you want to quickly stop into the florist to pick up a gift on your way to visit a sick friend. It is frustrating for your business partner who had to park four blocks away from the restaurant for a lunch meeting. And it is definitely problematic when your mother says she skipped shopping at the jewelry store altogether because she couldn’t find a place to park. After years of talking about parking, we are now focusing on what those parking problems have meant to the life of our Vil-
Ann Boon lage. Lack of adequate parking for retail shops and restaurants has been one key reason why over the years we have seen many retailers close their doors. Why do we care about retail? Retail creates a vibrant Village, bustling with shoppers and diners. Contrast that to sidewalks offering views of office windows or real estate postings. Without retail, our Village lacks “life.” Retail shops and restaurants provide energy, interest and entertainment for visitors who are staying at The Inn or visiting relatives in the Covenant. The draw of retail shops and restaurants can provide the foundation for what we all seem
to agree is very important to us: Community. There is no question that this is a multi-layered problem, and no one solution can address all the forces at work. The Association must look for ways to incentivize landowners to attract retail businesses. Any new retail business will need to show the county that they have adequate parking for their customers. Members must be retrained to shop in their own Village before looking. They — and all of us — will, if we can find parking. We can convince the retailers and restaurateurs who are here that we value them and want them to stay, if we can assure them that we can solve the problem of parking. And commercial business managers must take responsibility for the life of the Village as well and ensure that their employees do not monopolize the best retail parking places. I assure you, the RSF Association board understands
the importance of parking and we take the problem very seriously. We are convening the Village Master Plan Task Force this week to begin studying how planning, zoning, incentives and design can reconfigure the look and the life of the Village. Finding long-term solutions for parking will be a huge part of that project. Meanwhile, we know that some approaches to parking problems can make a difference in the short term. We have already taken some important steps. First, we have increased the enforcement of parking violations. The RSF Association funds extra time for California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers to police the Covenant. While they focus on safety issues such as speeding and running stop signs, we have also asked them to increase the time they spend on parking enforcement. Some curbs in the Village are painted green and designate two-hour parking. Did you know that if you
get a violation in a timed space the ticket is $62.50? While the CHP officer is ticketing you for the timed violation, he might notice that you have an expired registration or another violation. Other violations may run anywhere from $37.50 and up. If your car is blocking a handicap curb cut (usually on a corner), that’s a whopping $342.50! At our Aug. 6 meeting, the RSF Association board will discuss where we might want to ask the County to add green timed-parking curbs. We believe that the more timed parking we have, the more turnover we will have, thus making more spaces available for retail
and restaurant patrons. Those of you who work in the Village will play a very important role in solving the parking problem. If you are a Realtor stopping in to your office -— even if just for an hour — please try not to take a timed place. Leave that for someone who might be a customer for you or one of your retail neighbors. If you work in the Village all day, ask your manager where you might park that will not interfere with potential shoppers and diners. Be a part of the solution, not the problem. We all will benefit from a livelier Village. ann.boon@me.com
Clarification: Mille Fleurs to stay open for business as usual In a story that ran in the July 16 issue of the Rancho Santa Fe Review on the RSF Village parking problems, a reference was made to comments by Mille Fleurs owner Bertrand Hug on the negative impacts the parking problems have had on the restaurant’s lunch business. To clarify, Bertrand Hug does not plan to close Mille Fleurs for business at lunch or any other time it is currently open.

SDUHSD board debates interestbased bargaining approach BY KAREN BILLING As the San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) looks to negotiate with the San Dieguito Faculty Association and Classified School Employees Association this fall when the three-year contract expires, trustee John Salazar has questioned the makeup of the district’s negotiating teams. At the June meeting, Salazar asked whether the district could explore the possibility of having a board member involved in the negotiations, and trustee Mo Muir wondered whether they could hire an independent mediator. At the board members’ request, a discussion on the district’s current interest-based bargaining approach was put on the agenda for discussion at its July 16 meeting.
Salazar said his main concern is that there is a conflict of interest with staff being at the negotiating table. “There’s an inherent conflict there because the negotiation has a potential increase in their salary,” he said. “The board could hire an outside negotiator who wouldn’t be conflicted.” District President Beth Hergesheimer said she was not in favor of having a board member in on the negotiations, citing a recommendation from the California School Boards Association (CSBA). “The CSBA does not recommend that board members be part of a school district’s bargaining team. Having one or more members of the board participate in negotiations can create conflict — both at the bargaining See BARGAINING, page 24
SDUHSD approves special taxes for 2015-16 BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) voted 4-1 on July 16 for a levy of special taxes within seven Community Facilities Districts (CFDs), with trustee Mo Muir voting against it. As Eric Dill, associate superintendent of business services, explained, developers must pay fees to mitigate the impact of development. They can elect to pay development fees up front or elect to annex into CFDs, which is where Mello Roos fees come in. “The impact of development is placed on the parcel of land and paid over time. It is a special tax,” Dill said. The district has seven CFDs and each has a maximum annual tax. Developers must disclose to homeowners that they will be subject to Mello Roos fees before they purchase a home. “Every single one of the 9,008 property owners who reside in CFDs legally agreed to pay the special tax,” said District Superintendent Rick Schmitt. The 2015-16 prepayment amounts in four of the Community Facilities Districts range from $4,955 to $9,799 for a single-family home and $1,350 to $2,669 for a multi-family home. In CFD 99-2 and 99-3 (which include the Encinitas and Rancho Santa Fe School Districts), there will be a one-time special tax of $1.17 per square foot of assessable space for residential homes and 26 cents per square foot of assessable space for commercial buildings. In CFD 03-1, there will be a $11,560 special tax for a tax class A single family home, $3,123 for a tax class A multi-family home, $9,747 for a tax class B single family home and $2,632 for a tax class B multi-family home. As Schmitt said, the vote on adopting resolutions levying special taxes within the Community Facilities Districts has been unanimously approved by the San Dieguito board and See TAXES, page 24

Torrey Pines wins California High School of the Year Award for second time Torrey Pines High School was recently selected as the state’s top high school athletic program for the 2014-15 school year. In order to win the award from Cal-Hi Sports, “a high school must have at least one team win a CIF state championship or be considered No. 1 overall in a sport in which there isn’t a state championship.” The undefeated Torrey Pines boy’s tennis team (31-0) earned this distinction at the national level by winning the National All-American Invitational Tournament in which Falcon teammates Jacob Brumm and Charlie Pei were chosen all-tournament players. The team also won the CIF USTA Southern California Championships and defeated the winner of the CIF Northern California USTA. What clinched the state’s top award were other Torrey Pines teams finishing among the state’s best in girls tennis, boys golf, girls golf, girls volleyball, boys swimming, girls swimming, boys soccer and girls soccer for the 2014-15 season. The Falcons also had solid finishes in boys’ volleyball, football, boys’ basketball, girls’ basketball, baseball and softball. Cal-Hi Sports cited the fact that all 15 Torrey Pines teams listed in MaxPreps had winning seasons against top D1 competition. According to Torrey Pines Principal David Jaffe, “We are so proud of all of our athletic teams both in how they compete and how they represent Torrey Pines High School in the San Diego region and throughout the state. While their athletic success is being celebrated through Cal-Hi Sports’ designation as the No. 1 athletic program in California, we are most proud of who they are as young men and women as they truly epitomize student-athletes with close to 70 percent of our athletes earning a 3.5 GPA or higher.” This is the second time Torrey Pines was selected as the state’s top high school for overall sports excellence. The first was 11 years ago when the Falcons ranked among the state’s best in field hockey, girls golf, boys golf, boys lacrosse and girls soccer for the 2002-2003 season. Torrey Pines already ranks as the top school in San Diego County with the most CIF Championship titles. This tradition of excellence continued in the 2014-15 season with Falcon teams winning seven CIF San Diego Section and 10 league titles. In addition, a school record 52 student-athletes from the Class of 2015 were recruited to colleges such as Air Force, Amherst, Bates, Boston College, Cal, Claremont McKenna, Johns Hopkins, Notre Dame, Oregon, Pomona, Princeton, SDSU, Tufts, University of Chicago, UCLA, USC, Washington and Vanderbilt. Here are some of the highlights of the Falcons’ 2014-15 season: Tennis: In addition to the boys’ team earning state and national titles, the girls’ team continued their record winning streak by clinching their 25th consecutive CIF San Diego Section Championship. They also ranked #2 in the state as runner up in the CIF USTA Southern California team playoffs. Golf: The boys and girls golf teams both ranked #2 in the state as runner-ups in the CIF state finals. Soccer: Both boys and girls soccer teams won games in the CIF Southern California regional playoffs. The boys’ team also made it to the open division section final. Volleyball: The girls’ team won the CIF San Diego Section Open Division Champion-

Basketball: The boys’ team was state-ranked for almost the entire season (31-4), runnerup in the San Diego Section Open Division final, and advanced to the Southern California D1 playoffs where they won two games. The girls’ team advanced to the CIF Open Division playoffs and the Southern California regional playoffs. Swimming/Diving: Both girls and boys teams swept the CIF San Diego Section team championship titles. Other League Championship teams: Field hockey, baseball, boys’ water polo and girls cross country. Cal-Hi Sports said in a statement, “Congratulations to athletic directors Charlenne Falcis-Stevens (girls) and Matt Livingston (boys) and to all the Torrey Pines coaches and athletes for a truly phenomenal year of accomplishment.” Visit www.calhisports.com.

La Jolla Institute/UCSD team wins grant for immunotherapy cancer study • Research is being conducted through a program initiated by a gift from RSF residents Fernanda and Ralph Whitworth Stephen Schoenberger, Ph.D., a professor at the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, and Ezra Cohen, M.D., a professor of medicine at the UC San Diego School of Medicine Moores Cancer Center, have been awarded a Clinic and Laboratory Integration Program (CLIP) Grant by the Cancer Research Institute, a nonprofit dedicated to furthering the development of effective immune system-based cancer therapies. Schoenberger and Cohen’s immunotherapy research is being conducted through a program initiated by a gift from RSF residents Fernanda and Ralph Whitworth. “The results of these studies will provide new insights and opportunities for the treatment of head and neck cancer and bring the possibility of adaptive cancer immunotherapy and personalized cancer vaccines a step closer to clinical reality,” said Cohen, associate director for translational science at the Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego Health and an internationally recognized expert for novel cancer therapies. Cancer immunotherapy stimulates the body’s immune system to help fight the cancer instead of directly targeting the tumors. CLIP grants, which are specifically designed to bridge the gap between the laboratory and clinical efforts, support clinically relevant research projects aimed at bringing immune-based therapies to patients sooner. Schoenberger and Cohen will use the two-year, $200,000 grant to study whether the immune system of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma contains immune cells capable of launching an immune system attack directed at tumor cells and how to best increase their numbers and efficiency. RSF benefactors Fernanda and Ralph Whitworth initiated this discovery-based cancer immunotherapy program at
Fernanda and Ralph Whitworth UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center after Ralph Whitworth’s cancer diagnosis. The Whitworths have founded a public charity, Immunotherapy Foundation, that will continue to support this program and others like it. The charity is dedicated to supporting immunotherapy research for HPV-related head and neck cancer. For more information, visit cancer.ucsd.edu
RSF Foundation awards $16,000 to 4 local nonprofits The Rancho Santa Fe Foundation’s 2015 Community Grants continue a legacy of giving to local nonprofits that began in 1981. The RSF Foundation and its donors have given nearly $6 million in the last 15 years alone to support organizations in Rancho Santa Fe. After a competitive grant process in June, the 2015 grants were awarded to Helen Woodward Animal Center, RSF Community Center, RSF Library Guild and RSF School. “The Rancho Santa Fe community-based nonprofits were invited to participate,” said Debbie Anderson, programs director at the RSF Foundation. “The Grants and Projects Committee selected these four organizations primarily for their emphasis on providing programs and resources that improve the lives of people in our community.” The Community Grant to Helen Woodward Animal Center benefited the Therapeutic Riding program. This program uses specially trained equine therapists to provide children and adults who have physical or mental challenges with a unique therapeutic experience that improves their daily lives. Students gain balance and muscle control and experience improved memory and cognitive abilities, among other benefits. The Community Grant to RSF Community Center will provide an enhanced learning environment for students in their programs with the purchase of safe and secure storage cabinets for their facility. RSF Library Guild raises funds to provide services to RSF Branch Library beyond the budget of the SD County Library. The Community Grant will fully fund the Guild’s 2016 Children’s Summer Reading Program. This program uses a combination of incentives, goals and events to encourage student reading during the summer months. Students at RSF School will benefit from the Community Grant for the robotics program. The program is available to students in grades 1 through 8. They will master the principles of robotics as they learn to build and program autonomous robots, using curriculum materials developed by the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

‘ACT III’ offers a plan for an engaged retirement in the 21st century BY ANTOINETTE KURITZ AND JARED KURITZ Behind every great nonfiction book is research-based knowledge. And that knowledge is imparted in a way that gives us takeaways — information that is useful to us in our lives. When the book is also eminently readable, that is a bonus. In “ACT III: Your Anti-Retirement Playbook,” authors Cecilia Williams, Ph.D. and Paula White, CPA, MBA, redefine retirement for the 21st century, referring to that time in our lives instead as ACT III — it being the time of conflict resolution and some of the most exciting action of our lives. Lots of retirement books are available, and these authors seem to be aware of them all. Most of them focus almost entirely on financial preparedness. “ACT III,” written really for anyone 35 and older, addresses instead the need to stay relevant throughout all the acts in our lives and how particularly to do so during ACT III. The writers will be speaking from 3-5 p.m. Aug. 8 at Barnes & Noble Grossmont; at 4 p.m. Aug. 9 at Barnes & Noble Oceanside; and from 3-5 p.m. Aug. 15 at Barnes & Noble Encinitas. Recently Williams and White answered some questions: What do you see as the traditional definition of retirement? The traditional definition of retirement is you put up a “Gone fishin’” sign and leave town. Seriously, your retirement day is a ceremony launching you into a role where you are no longer part of the mainstream. You’ve earned your rest. Now you can
“spend” your time on puzzles, golfing, traveling. One of the reasons we enjoy these activities now is that they are short pleasurable diversions. Too much leisure can lead to boredom and depression. What’s wrong with this vision of retirement? Is it still a practical reality? Today’s 65-year-old is not ready to be put out to pasture. On the practical side, few can afford to retire. More importantly, with life expectancies stretching beyond 100, it is not right to lump the life role of a 65-yearold (in with) that of a 90-year-old. People either view retirement as something to look forward to or as the beginning of irrelevance. Where are you on this scale? Why? Personally, we look forward to spending more time on our purpose. For us, that purpose is having all people evolve and share their skills, their wisdom and their gifts for as long as they can without artificial barriers. One should never leave anything; they should always move towards something better. How must retirement be reconfigured for the 21st century? Why? Let’s get rid of the word; it does not fit. Today society interprets retirement as being financially secure so that you no longer have to maintain a job in order to live. That’s all it means. ACT III is a stage of life, not a financial condition. As an example, 150 years ago there was no stage of life called adolescence. One went from childhood to adulthood. By recognizing adoles-

are retired and experience it? In traditional retirement, the greatest loss is social connection. Work is no longer a given topic, so now what do you talk about and what binds you to other people?
What are the biggest retirement myths? The biggest retirement myth is “55+.” The second half of life cannot be defined by one word. Carrying an AARP card does not mean we are aged. It means we have entered the time of life when we can make choices, given the flexibility created by skills, financial foundation and an acute understanding that now there can be no excuses for not living a life of balance, joy and purpose.
Is there a better word for retirement in the context of the way we live today? Yes, ACT III! Only by coming up with a new word can we discuss the complexity that fac-

For TPHS grad, baseball superstardom comes catch by catch BY ROB LEDONNE Only four short years ago, catcher Garrett Stubbs, then a star of Torrey Pines High School’s varsity baseball program, left North County behind to attend USC and lend his talents to the mighty Trojans. Now Stubbs is making moves again by transitioning to the minor leagues; this after earning his degree from USC this past spring and putting Trojans baseball back on the map. “It’s been going well so far,” said Stubbs on a recent Sunday afternoon about his career. “I think the key is that you can’t think too far ahead, and you can’t think about the successes or the failures.” That seems to be working for him. Along with receiving his degree, Stubbs also recently won the Johnny Bench Award — a prize annually bestowed upon the country’s best catcher in college baseball. “It was a huge honor just to be nominated,” Stubbs said of the award, in which he beat out a nation of young catchers, first making it to the top three. The announcement that he had come out on top was made at a ceremony Left: Torrey Pines High School graduate Garrett Stubbs holding the Johnny Bench Award, an annual honor bestowed upon the in Kansas City. “We had a huge year with USC and I was best collegiate catchers in the country.

From top to bottom, local bikini designer enjoys fashion business BY KAREN BILLING From polka dots to paisley, young designer Julie Freed is hoping to make her imprint on the bikini business. Freed, 22, is running a growing J.KINIS Swimwear shop on Etsy while she wraps up a degree in fashion design at Palomar College. For the past year, her fun and funky two-piece suits have made their way down runways and been spotted on San Diego beaches. Freed graduated from Canyon Crest Academy in 2011. She knew she wanted to do something artistic as a career but wasn’t quite sure which direction to go, at first trying photography. “I had my first sewing class at Palomar College and absolutely fell in love with it,” Freed said. The first item of clothing she made was pajama pants. Initially, she thought she would like to design children’s clothes, but once she made her first bikini, that was it. “Palomar College really gave me a lot of confidence,” Freed said, noting the professors in the fashion design and merchandising program have been incredibly supportive and helped her find something she truly enjoys doing. Bikinis seem to be a natural fit for the sunny California blonde — she was always on the hunt for cute bikinis that weren’t outrageously priced. Last summer, she wore
one of her custom suits out and received tons of compliments, as well as tons of requests from people who wanted a J.KINI of their own. That got Freed’s designer mind going. “I decided to try and put a few on Etsy, and I didn’t expect anything from it,” Freed said. Her first sale came from a customer in Florida. “It was very exciting! It felt like the best day.” The Etsy shop has been open since January, and she has sold hundreds of bikinis, with even some customers from Europe and Brazil. She takes care of every aspect of her growing business from start to finish — from sourcing the fabrics (she travels frequently to Los Angeles for this) to designing, cutting and sewing each bikini and packaging and shipping from her home. Her target market is ages 16 to 30, and she is happy to do custom orders — one custom order was a unique, navy off-the-shoulder-style bikini for a customer headed to Las Vegas. All of her suits are reversible, in beautiful and funky fabrics like shimmery gold or a fresh mint and pink chevron. Her most popular style is a high-neck bikini top. Of the prints, girls are digging the tie-dye and galaxy fabrics. She plays with all different kinds of strappy designs — crisscrossed, tied and some with time-consuming hand-braiding.

Fashion has afforded her some great opportunities so far. Freed recently won first place in the fashion competition at the San Diego County Fair for a dress she designed and, at Palomar, she has twice been selected to show her looks in the annual MODA Fashion Show. Last year, she showed six pieces and this year she showed 10 in at the show held at the California Center for the Arts, Escondido, with guest speaker designer Zandra Rhodes. Freed, who sees herself moving to LA after graduating next year, markets her suits by wearing them beachside and poolside. She also has a fun Instagram account where she shows off the suits and is developing a playful brand. “I want to work my way to becoming the biggest bathing suit shop on Etsy,” Freed said.

Team Mizuno wins baseball championship, earns berth to World Series tournament Team Mizuno won the United States Amateur Baseball Federation World Series Challenge Championship, earning a berth into the federation’s World Series Tournament. The team lost a tough first game 5-4, to the eventual No. 2-seeded SoCal Nationals, in spite of Matt Caprice’s strong 5-inning, 1-earned-run pitching outing. In the second game, the bats and arms came alive as Team Mizuno beat the Giants 9-0, with a 2-hit shutout pitching effort by Joe Innis. Mizuno faced the Giants again in the elimination round, advancing into the semifinals with a 14-6 win, behind strong pitching from Jake Pearlman, Jack Foate, and Liam Baily, with 11 different players hitting the bases. In the semifinals game, Team Mizuno sought redemption as they squared off with SoCal Nationals again. Ben Berry pitched a 4-hit, 2-run complete game, which was backed up with seven Mizuno players getting on base, led by Charlie Miller’s 3-hits, putting Mizuno into the championship game with a 3-2 win. Team Mizuno came out slinging and swinging in the championship game against The Truth, with nine different players finding the bases, and Ryan Sanborn throwing a 3-hit, complete game shut-out, to cap off the 10-0 championship victory. All of Team Mizuno’s players contributed to the success of the weekend.

Mark your calendars: RSF Education Foundation to host get-togethers for new R. Roger Rowe students, parents
American Pharoah training at DM track BY KELLEY CARLSON For the first time in its history, the Del Mar racetrack has been hosting a Triple Crown winner. American Pharoah — who this spring became only the 12th horse to win the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes — arrived at the seaside oval on July 14. He has been training for his next start, which is expected to be the Grade I, $1 million Haskell Invitational on Aug. 2 at Monmouth Park in New Jersey. A typical morning for American Pharoah involves a visit to the track under exercise rider Jorge Alvarez, walking around the barn area to cool off, and receiving a bath. According to a news release, the 3-year-old superstar will ship to New Jersey on July 29, and is expected to head back to Del Mar the day after the Haskell. While American Pharoah has been the center of attention in the mornings, plenty of stakes action has

A typical morning for American Pharoah involves a visit to the track under exercise rider Jorge Alvarez. Photo by Kelley Carlson continued in the afternoons. Among the notable winners this past week: Pure Tactics, Wickerr Stakes; Big John B, Cougar II Handicap (Grade III); Big Book, Fleet Treat Stakes; Catch a Flight, San Diego Handicap (Grade II); Weewinnin, California Dreamin’ Handicap; and Wild Dude, Bing Crosby Stakes (Grade I).
MOREthanLUNCH, Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club’s ladies luncheon speaker series, launches with Darlene Davies speaking on “Haps and Mishaps of the Panama-California Exposition,� honoring Balboa Park’s founding and year-long centennial celebration of the 1915 Expo. The event is 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Aug. 19, at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. Davies’ appearance is sponsored by Ranch & Coast Magazine. An authority on all things Balboa Park, Davies has written and lectured widely on the park’s role in San Diego’s history. She is the official Old Globe historian, and has received mayoral appointments to the city of San Diego Parks and Recreation Board and the Balboa Park Committee, as well as the Commission for Arts & Culture. She served for 12 years on the Old Globe Theatre Board, and she co-produced and co-wrote 15 videos funded by the Akaloa and Cargill Foundations for the Mingei Museum. Her love of theater has resulted in a lifetime involvement with San Diego Junior Theatre, which awarded her honors in 2013 for Lifetime Achievement. She also chaired the County Commission on the Status of Women. The Aug. 19 lecture, with digital visuals as well as real life items from Darlene’s memorabilia collection, was first crafted for the March 2015 Congress of History annual conference. The talk pays homage to the women of the 1915 Expo. Reserved seating, available to all association members and their guests, is $50 per person.

BY RANDI CRAWFORD If you want to feel “like a second-class citizen,” I strongly recommend traveling on an airplane somewhere, anywhere. Apparently, if your job doesn’t require you to be on an airplane 90 percent of the time, and you aren’t a gold or premium member of anything, you are a loser. Even if you spend so much money on your credit card, that it affords you free miles to fly, you are considered to be even lower on the loser chain. I made a pact with myself, after this last trip, that I won’t fly “airline x” ever again. And if I do, I want to be checked into a mental hospital. Let’s start with the airport security line. Those who were smart and went to the border to get approved for the TSA-PRE, streamline right to the front of the line without any questions, disrobing or holdups whatsoever. Those of us who aren’t TSA-PRE get stuck in the line with the “idiot traveler” who, after he is clearly told to “Empty everything from your pockets,” still keeps change and other items in his pocket and doesn’t understand why that’s a problem. Thus holding up the line for the rest of the cattle who actually got the memo that “empty your pockets” means to empty your pockets. And he doesn’t learn the first time; it takes at least two to three times before this guy dials in. Next, as you are waiting anxiously to board, there are two clearly marked lines. Priority Pas-
sengers stand to the left, and the cattle go to the right. There could be a line wrapping around the gate area for the “cattle,” and then a random “Priority” traveler casually walks up to priority and sashays right in. If you haven’t gotten the memo by now, you should know that if you aren’t a priority member, your trip is going to suck. Then you board, and walk by everyone in first class sipping their buttery chardonnay, and you are shuffled back to Loserville with the curtain clearly marking the differentiation between the two. And you pray for just a fleeting moment that you are seated directly behind first class, because those passengers get a bit more leg room, but that quickly vanishes as you head to the back of the plane. As it turns out, when you fly using the points you’ve earned by spending so much money on your credit card, you get the last row on the plane. You know which one I’m talking about; it’s the one located right by the restrooms. And to add insult to injury, your seats don’t go back, because the bathroom is right behind you. You are blessed with all the people standing
by your seats, staring at whatever you are doing, while waiting to use the restroom. Let’s not forget you are guaranteed to miss any close connection because it’s going to take you 30 minutes to get off the plane. This is when you shut your eyes and start counting backwards. Honestly I didn’t think it could get any worse, until I went to pick up my rental car. When we stepped onto the bus, I was asked whether I was a gold member, and when I said no, I was told to go to the right and take my seat. No joke, a rental car shuttle actually differentiates between the elite travelers and the losers. Both ways on this trip, my flights were delayed, and the first leg, I didn’t get my luggage. The second leg, my entire family missed our flight and got lucky enough to stay overnight in Detroit. And when we were told to get our “overnight toiletries packets,” the airline had run out. Are you kidding me, the entire airline doesn’t have four bags of toothbrushes and toothpaste anywhere? And wait for the best part — we were given food vouchers for dinner (three instead of four) that expired at 11 p.m. What time do you think we were served the food that we ordered at 9:30 p.m? The airlines don’t care. Why should they? There’s only two or three major airlines left. I’m hanging up my traveling hat this summer. I just can’t deal. Do you experience travel nightmares?

To Your Health: Six myths, facts about heart health BY MARTIN CHARLAT, MD Between the Internet, television news and social media, it seems there is a new story about heart disease nearly every day. While a great deal of information is out there, not all of it is accurate. Considering that cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide — accounting for 17.5 million deaths per year, according to the World Health Organization, and growing — having the right information can help you keep your heart healthy. The following are six of the most common myths about heart disease, and the facts you need to know. 1. Women don’t have to worry about heart disease. Not true. Heart disease is the No. 1 cause of death among both men and women; in fact, a woman dies from heart disease every minute in the United States. Additionally, women may have more subtle heart attack symptoms than men. While both may feel sudden chest pain at the time of the attack, women may experience symptoms such as chest tightness, nausea, fatigue, dizziness and shortness of breath up to a month before a heart attack. Women who have these symptoms should have them checked out right away. 2. I have to exercise a lot. Many people mistakenly believe they need a great deal of exercise in order to reap the cardiovascular benefits. As a result, they become discouraged and give up on exercise altogether. However, you don’t need to run a marathon to help your heart. Even moderate levels of exercise are sufficient to improve your heart health. Aim to get 30-45 minutes of aerobic exercise such as walking, cycling, jogging or swimming at least three days a week. Plus, you don’t have to do it all at once; three 10-minute walks, for example, fit the bill. An activity tracking device can help you monitor your progress throughout the day. A good goal to start with is walking 10,000 steps a day. 3. A vegetarian diet is best for my heart. Following a plant-based diet is strongly preferred for heart health, but it isn’t absolutely necessary. If you eat
Martin Charlat, MD meat, focus on lean protein sources such as chicken and fish, and minimize red meat. Build the rest of your diet around whole grains, fruits, vegetables and complex carbohydrates that are high in fiber and nutrients and low in fat. Look up the glycemic index online, and choose most of your foods from the lower end of the scale. Low-glycemic foods also can help you maintain a stable weight and keep your blood sugar balanced. 4. Avoid fats. Yes, some fats are harmful for your heart, but some actually help. Ideally, you want to minimize saturated fats, such as those found in beef, lard, full-fat dairy and other animal products. They can increase your low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels, which can clog your arteries. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats from plants like avocados, olives and walnuts, can help increase your high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, which helps keep arteries clear. Remember that all fats are high in calories, so use them in moderation. 5. E-cigarettes are safer than tobacco. Decades ago, people didn’t think smoking tobacco was harmful; today, we know the truth. Similarly, we currently don’t know the long-term effects of ecigarettes. According to a 2014 report from the World Health Organization, existing evidence shows that ecigarette aerosol is not merely “water vapor,” as is often claimed in the marketing of these products; it does, in fact contain nicotine and a number of toxic ingredients. There is no evidence that “vaping” is any safer than conventional See HEART, page 22

Art for Barks teams up with San Diego Humane Society on ‘Art to the Rescue’ Art for Barks, a San Diego-based nonprofit animal charity, announced today the launch of “Art to the Rescue,” a new initiative created in partnership with San Diego Humane Society. As part of the program, Art for Barks will secure and bring San Diego artists to San Diego Humane Society year-round to paint portraits of adoptable animals and help promote those in need of homes. After each artists spends time at the shelter getting to know an adoptable dog or cat, he/she creates a one-of-a-kind work of art, to be given as a valuable keepsake to the pet parents, once the featured animal is adopted. San Diego’s renowned artist Stephen Fishwick is one of the first artists to participate in the initiative. Earlier this month, Fishwick created a beautiful portrait of an adoptable dog — Beanie, the pit bull. Beanie was adopted on May 26, and her new adoptive parent has been giving her plenty of love. On July 3, Fishwick presented his painting to Beanie’s new pet parent at the San Diego Humane Society. Fishwick received a certificate of appreciation for sharing his talent and time with “Art to the Rescue.” “‘Art to the Rescue’ is an awesome way to raise awareness of the animals that are in need of being adopted,” said Fishwick. Niklas Hoover, 16, is another artist who has also already donated his time and talents to “Art to the Rescue.” Niklas is a young art prodigy who attends high school in San Diego and intends to give his time to the project year-round. After spending several hours in the cat room of San Diego Humane Society, painting orange tabby Taters, he created a beautiful painting, which will be given to Taters’ adoptive family, which adopted her on May 27.
“We are passionate about helping animals find loving homes and believe art is a great way to connect people and animals, and tell a story,” said Lynn Moon, founder of Art for Barks. “It’s an honor to have local artists join us in our mission and we’re thrilled to partner with San Diego Humane Society on this important program.” Founded in 2012 by RSF resident, animal-lover, philanthropist and sculptor Lynn Moon, Art for Barks reaches out to animalthemed artists and writers for collaboration. With the help of influential writers and artists, Art for Barks is able to spread awareness to pet guardians and the community on proper pet care. The organization’s purpose is to decrease the number of animals that end up in shelters and increase pet adoption by providing essential tools and resources, such as innovative veterinary record-keeping through Drop Data Box, Emergency Contact Cards, an updated Pet Care Registry, and state-of-the-art pet parenting information, and now “Art to the Rescue.” “We’re so appreciative of community partners like Art for Barks to help spread the word about the importance of pet adoption and create awareness about shelter animals through art,” said Elkie Wills, director of community engagement at San Diego Humane Society. “Helping homeless pets in San Diego is a community responsibility, and we welcome anyone who has a passion for animals and wants to get involved. Even small acts make a big difference in saving animal lives.” To learn more about Art for Barks and their exciting projects in support for animals, visit www.artforbarks.org.

• Syrian pastor to visit Rancho Santa Fe’s Village Church Aug. 16
Several Cathedral Catholic High School Tennis Team players volunteered recently at Balboa Park Tennis Club to help with the 24th annual Hendrickson Wheelchair Tennis Classic Tournament. The CCHS students, who are coached by Ron Marquez, helped the more than 30 participants in all aspects of the tournament, including scoring, line calls, and assisting the players. The students are required to complete 20 hours of service hours during their freshman, sophomore and junior years of high school for a total of 60 or more at graduation. The event started at 8 a.m. The CCHS boys helped set up the event for check-in and got an education on how to fix the broken wheelchairs. They also tried out the latest in wheelchair technology and took them for a spin themselves. Unfortunately, the event was paused at noon as rain poured, complete with thunder and lightning. About 30 wheelchair participants took part, traveling from all over the country. There were three levels of men’s singles and two levels of men’s doubles, as well as junior singles and doubles. The wheelchair tennis player is allowed two bounces of the ball and the player must return the ball before it hits the ground a third time, but the second bounce
A Protestant pastor from Damascus, Syria, will make a special stop in Rancho Santa Fe next month for a free discussion on how the current unrest in the Middle East is impacting Christians. The Rev. Boutros Zaour will appear at the Village Community Church from 7 to 8 p.m. Aug. 16, preceded by a free wine and appetizer reception starting at 6 p.m. The Rev. Zaour has been the pastor of the 600-member Presbyterian Church in Damascus for 18 years. Located in the heart of the Old City, the congregation has welcomed Iraqi refugees as well as fellow Syrians who have been displaced from other parts of the country. “We will hear directly from a man deeply involved in being a witness of hope to a war-torn region,” said the Rev. Dr. Jack Baca, senior
The Rev. Boutros Zaour pastor of the Village Community Church. “Rev. Zaour will outline how we can support Christians and other minorities in the Middle East,” Baca added. Zaour serves on several councils of the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon and meets reg-
ularly with Muslim leaders prominent in Damascus. He will address the needs of the region in the midst of continued war. On most Sundays, members of his congregation make their way to church passing concrete blast walls and imposing camouflaged tanks, while the air is punctuated by the rumble of exploding artillery a few miles away. The talk and reception are free to the public, but space is limited. RSVPs are requested. The event will be held at the Village Community Church Fellowship Center, 6225 Paseo Delicias, Rancho Santa Fe, CA 92067.

OBITUARIES
Clarence Edward Bergman 1926 – 2015 Clarence E. Bergman, 88, of Rancho Santa Fe, passed away peacefully on June 26, 2015, at his home after a lengthy illness. Ed was born on July 4, 1926, in St. Louis, MO, to Oscar W. and Jeanette (Johnson) Bergman. He attended Central College in Missouri and the University of Oklahoma through a naval training program. While in Oklahoma he met his future wife, Irma Nadine Ingram. After graduation and completion of naval duties, he earned a PhD in Electrical Engineering at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champagne. He began his career in Syracuse, NY, working at General Electric first in color television, then in radar programs. He moved to Melpar in Falls Church,
VA, then Autonetics of North American Aviation in California, where he was chief engineer of advanced programs and marketing and assistant manager of systems. He also earned an MBA from the University of Southern California. From 1969 to 1979, he was technical director of the Naval Electronics Laboratory Center in San Diego, managing communications programs and working to make it more effective. In 1979, he moved to The Netherlands, where he was deputy director of a NATO technical center working on communications and research. In 1984, he moved to the Washington, DC, area, where he served as an Air Force representative to the Defense Systems Management College. After four years, he and his wife retired to their home in Rancho Santa Fe. He and his wife enjoyed life on the Ranch and couldn’t think of a better place to spend their retirement. Family children appreciated growing up on the Ranch and attending the elementary and middle schools. Ed’s family was as important to him as his career. He supported his children’s endeavors and shared his passion for nature, books, music, and travel. He also shared
his Christian values by example. Ed met his later years with courage, with the help of primary caregivers, Levy and Hernan. Their exceptional care and warmth over a period of years made a huge difference in his quality of life and the family thanks them. Ed served his family and community well and faithfully. His bear hugs and enthusiasm for life will long be remembered. Ed was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Paul.

Eating a heart-healthy diet and exercising may not always be enough to keep cholesterol levels in healthy ranges, especially if you have a genetic predisposition to high cholesterol. In such cases, statin medications used to lower levels of cholesterol can help. While statins may cause side effects such as muscle pain or damage, digestive issues or liver problems for some people, the benefits may outweigh the risks.

THE INN The original La Morada (The Inn) opened in 1923 and JMI is only the third owner in its long history. When JMI purchased The Inn in 2012, they launched a $12 million upgrade, including a complete renovation of the guest rooms, restaurant, main lobby and entrance area and added a day spa. As that phase has concluded, Kratzer said they are now turning their attention to the residential component of The Inn’s property. The Inn owns a total of 35 buildings in the village, and the residences have historically been available for rent. Over the years, the residences have been occupied by short-time members in transition — such as while renovating a home — in addition to many long-term renters by choice. “What we keep hearing is while the rental opportunities are attractive, what people are really interested in is for-sale housing,” Kratzer said. Kratzer said they approached the RSF Association very early and were told how they’ve heard time and time again that there is a need for empty-nester and step-down housing. He has estimated that about 15 percent or less of Covenant homes are 3,000 square feet or less. “We don’t have enough of those, and there’s no way to satisfy that with building, without adding,” he said. Kratzer believes The Inn property is also well-suited to step-down housing because it is within walking distance to the village. “At some level, we think we’re doing what the community needs,” he said. “I do think we have the right intentions in mind.” The Inn is subject to a specific plan, approved in 1988 and amended in 2001, which provides for 134 dwelling units. Today it has 99 dwelling units and can add as many as 35. Two of The Inn’s communities will remain untouched: Casitas de Cielo and Canyon View. The plan is to create three distinct products for the marketplace by demolishing and redeveloping units, and creating the three new neighborhoods called The Orchard, The Grove and La Gracia Village. “Everything in the residential lot will be for sale,” Kratzer said. “We do have some very long-term renters that would like to stay, so we’re trying to make accommodations for them.” He noted there may be some units that The Inn elects to keep for short-term rentals.

A map of The Inn’s residential neighborhoods. Some of the units are in “horrible” condition and have a lot of work to be done to bring them up to fire, life and safety standards, Kratzer said. “Most of what might be demolished is being driven by the fire department because one of the things we have to do is create roadways and fire utility access for existing homes,” Kratzer said. In the La Gracia Village pod east of The Inn, there are six buildings with 10 units and JMI Realty would like to demolish them and rebuild with seven buildings with 20 units total. “The buildings will not be visible from the road,” Kratzer said, noting they are below street level of Senda de la Luna. Because of the topography and step down in grade, all 20 units will be single-level living. These units are the smallest floor plans of all the products at around 2,000 square feet. In The Orchard units off Steven Royce Boulevard west of The Inn, they plan to demolish two units, create a roadway and five homes. The homes would be in the Lilian Rice row house style, in the 2,200- to 2,900-square-foot range, with interior courtyards and 15 feet between each building. In The Grove, off La Flecha by the RSF Senior Center, there are three dwelling units. The company would like to take that to five (four new and keeping one existing). Kratzer said the architecture for these homes aims to be a more “conventional, geometric” design. Kratzer said some interesting and exciting opportunities present themselves when step-down housing is paired with the number of attractive amenities that a hotel can offer. He said they are looking at the kinds of Inn amenities they might be able to offer residents, such as access to the spa, fitness room, hotel food and beverage room service and housekeeping. Residents in attendance expressed concerns about the amount of parking along La Gracia and about the project’s density. Resident Michelle Crowley was concerned about having 20 units in La Gracia Village at the top of her street, while the most vocal opponent was resident LaDonna Monsees, who neighbors The Grove community. “JMI is a great developer, this is just a bad plan,” Monsees said. Monsees moved to Rancho Santa Fe 15 years ago seeking the rural ambiance of the community, which, she said, when you live off La Gracia, you don’t really get until passing The Inn and coming through her community. “What they’re proposing is to take one acre and plop five homes on it,” she said. “I’m one home on three acres, and for them to come in and put that density in that neighborhood is wrong.” Monsees said that as the Covenant modification takes two-thirds of the vote of the surrounding neighbors, it wouldn’t get built if they do not approve. Kratzer said he lives in Rancho Santa Fe, too, so he is sensitive to the issues and he wants to build things that will be respectful of the community. “I’m not interested in a lot of controversy,” he said. He said Monsees is absolutely right that if the neighbors don’t want it, it will not be built. “The onus is on us to make sure adjacent landowners are comfortable and for us to speak to the neighbors and let them understand clearly what we’re doing,” Kratzer said.

themselves — as the beacons who led him to excel in the sport. “I can definitely say without a doubt that I wouldn’t be where I am without the help my parents have given me,” Fritz said of his mother and father, who made a name for themselves playing for a time on the national circuit. “They’ve always done what’s best for me and are great coaches. I’m very thankful.” Along with the knowledge his parents imparted, Fritz has a strong work ethic and natural talent. That combination helped him locally, where he became a standout while attending Torrey Pines, and nationally, after he left the high school during his sophomore year and began taking online classes to fully focus on pursuing his athletic career. Further cementing his status as a breakout star was a plum spot at Wimbledon earlier this month, where he was one of the esteemed event’s most talked-about names. (After watching him play, ESPN’s Peter Bodo wrote that Fritz is “tailor-made for today’s game” and “already generates outstanding power.”) “Wimbledon was amazing,” said Fritz of his experience in England during one of the world’s most prestigious sporting events. “I played it last year and did well, so I was really excited to go back and compete again.” While Fritz didn’t triumph as much as he would have liked — losing the boys’ singles semifinal to fellow American Reilly Opelka — he still considered the tourna-

table and at the board table,” she said. According to Hergesheimer, the CSBA believes the school board should speak with one voice, giving direction to the bargaining representatives as a full board. “If a single board member participates in bargaining, that board member has greater opportunity to shape and influence the contract than his or her colleagues,” Hergesheimer said. “Other board members might perceive this as an unfair advantage.” Hergesheimer said that since most board members don’t have experience with labor negotiations, the board’s responsibility is to define its desired outcome, and how to achieve it becomes the responsibility of the staff. “Our five elementary districts are the same community and the same taxpayers, and they do not have board members sit in on negotiations or work with professional negotiators,” said Superintendent Rick Schmitt. Schmitt said many safeguards are built into the negotiating process before anything becomes official, such as county approval, and he has trust in the district’s employees. “The interest-based approach has been used for decades here and our employees really do put the interests of the district, stu-

ment, and the attention around it, a stepping stone. “It was still a great time and I loved being there.” Next, Fritz has a major choice: Either head to USC and start his academic career, or forgo school and head straight into the pros. While he concedes that “anything can happen in the next couple months,” he’s leaning towards entering the professional level, which would lead to a whole new round of attention — and challenges. He has some boldfaced names in his contact list to ask advice. “Mardy Fish and James Blake have both said that I can give them a call and ask them for advice whenever I want,” Fritz said of the two tennis titans. “I’ll probably take them up on that, since whatever they have to say would be extremely valuable to me.” No matter what’s in store for Fritz in the coming months and years, he said he’s nevertheless grateful to continue to climb the ladder. “It seems like I’ve had the most attention at the fastest rate,” Fritz said. “I never thought I’d be playing at the international level. I actually never imagined all of this would happen. I just kind of worked hard, and it’s all coming together. It’s coming so fast. “Unlike all of my peers, the other top juniors, I was a nobody just a few years ago. A lot of people had attention throughout their careers, but this is all very new to me.”
dent and taxpayers first,” Schmitt said. “That shows mutual interest and not self-interest.” Schmitt said the district has agreed to zero raises seven times without any mediator or board member in the room, while during the same time period, districts around them agreed to raises of 6 percent to 18 percent for staff. SDUHSD staff has received salary increases periodically, with a regular step-andcolumn compensation schedule but no straight raises. Terri Norton, associate superintendent of human resources, said an outside negotiator also wouldn’t have the inside knowledge of the day-to-day issues within the district. Trustee Amy Herman agreed that it would be a “shame” to bring in outside people with no knowledge of the district’s history and to see the process possibly become confrontational. “To move away from (interest-based bargaining) would be such a disservice to taxpayers, students, teachers and classified staff,” said trustee Joyce Dalessandro. “I don’t feel that any argument could justify a departure from an interest-based bargaining approach.” Schmitt agreed that the current process and format has been working and he believes it will work well again this fall.

feeder elementary boards for years. At its July 22 meeting, neighboring Del Mar Union School District approved the special tax levy for 2015-16 for its CFDs, $1.6 million in total, to repay the bonds issued by the school district to build Ocean Air and Torrey Hills schools. According to Dill, a “no” vote by the entire board on the 2015-16 version of these resolutions would go against the property owners in the district who agreed to pay those taxes upon taking title to the property. All of those properties would face liens and foreclosures because the bond holders would have the right to foreclose
on those properties in order to pay on those bonds, and liens would effectively shut down all future development within the CFDs. The single “no” vote will have an impact on the district’s bond rating, Schmitt said. “Most troubling, with the 4-1 vote on July 16: the ‘no’ vote will cause our bond rating to drop, costing our taxpayers millions in added interest,” Schmitt said. “Local developers, bond rating agencies, underwriters and the San Diego County Assessors Office have already taken notice of the ‘no’ vote.”

Davenport, Iowa, playing for the Quad Cities River Bandits. “I could play the rest of the season here, or they can move me to the next level, which is another team in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.” Regardless of what happens from here on out, Stubbs has his many accomplishments to look back on. “I’d have to say that my entire senior season at a USC was a highlight,” he said. “I was most proud to get my degree from USC and continue their athletic tradition. Being a part of that was really special, and it’s nothing that anyone can take away from me.” This coming season, another Stubbs will be found on the field playing for the Trojans — Garrett’s brother CJ. Also a graduate of Torrey Pines, CJ is following in his older brother’s footsteps (and their two grandfathers before them), taking part in the Trojan tradition. “It just so happens that he’s also playing baseball for USC, but he’s making his own legacy and path,” said Stubbs. “I try to help him as much as possible, but he’s one of those people who works really hard and has the same kind of passion and competitiveness as I do.” Despite all the attention he’s received (including recent stories in the Los Angeles Times and USA Today), Stubbs will continue to focus on the game at hand. “It’s been a lot of fun so far,” he said, “and I hope to continue playing for a very long time.”

es this stage of life. It is up to us to determine what that means. We wrote the book to start a groundswell to redefine the stage and eventually redefine society. So often retirees seem a bit disconnected from the rest of society. In what ways can we stay connected after retirement? Recognize that we always are part of society. What role do we want to play? Older people in society have traditionally been called upon for their wisdom. Third actors have a voice. It is time people heard it. The power of their voice could help solve the problems of the world. In what areas do we need to stay current even if we decide to retire? Why? Simply, all the areas we cover in our book. Technology and relationships are prime. For example, new relationships need to be formed to support our renewed purpose and our inspired interests. We need to understand new technologies to communicate and to stay connected. When should we begin considering what our ACT III will look like? What three things should be considered 10 years before retirement? Five years before retirement? Twelve months before retirement? Aside from savings, which should be started early in life, somewhere in your late 40s you should be thinking of your definition of ACT III. The transition is an ongoing process. Your interests and dreams will evolve constantly. At age 40, you need to recognize that you are evolving to your next Act. Just as in ACT II you explored careers, in Act III you should be exploring interests and purpose. What would you like to do next in life? What would you like to accomplish? What would you regret not having done? What are some of the emotional ramifications we might expect with retirement? Frustration with ageism. Walk into a computer store and the sales staff will direct you to the “age-appropriate” product. You will get advertisements for hearing aids and senior diapers. Magazines will say they have an article about 55+ and when you read it the subject is about 90-year-olds. After all, we are the same, aren’t we? Shop for clothes
lately? Enough said. What do you suggest to those who retire and then have second thoughts. In fact, how do we avoid having those second thoughts? Wanting to regain the past can often prevent you from taking advantage of today’s opportunities. Life always offers opportunities. What is in your world today to say “yes” to? Follow your interests. Follow your dreams. You are co-authors. What was the best part of writing together? What was the most difficult? We were able to explore our own ACT III and explore changes in our own lives we needed to make. The most difficult part was that in the beginning we did not think we had time to add one more thing to our todo list, but as we started, time expanded to match our dreams. We marvel at the mysteries of the universe and our lives. Why did you write “ACT III”? And who do you see as its readers? We wrote “Act III” as a guidebook, a playbook. We interviewed hundreds of successful retirees to develop our playbook to carefully guide our readers in the development of their ACT III. Who we see as its readers? Anybody facing transition. The older you are, the better it works. ACT III — how do you define it? ACT III is the time of your life where you are done with the “have-tos” and the “need tos.” Everything you have done has led you to this point. Now is the time to bring forward the best of your experiences and develop your next act in your life’s story, the most important act. What are the three most important pieces of advice you have for those planning their ACT III? See it as a time of evolution, not as a time of decline. Do not pull away; engage in the fullness of life. This is your story, don’t let society write it for you. Be your own playwright.

SummerFest 2015: Artists, audiences to again share chamber music, memories
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY DAVID L. CODDON Besides stellar musicianship, what do the artists of La Jolla Music Society’s SummerFest 2015, both returning favorites and notable newcomers, have in common? “All of them,” said Christopher Beach, LJMS president and artistic director, “have that same ability to move an audience.” SummerFest, now in its 29th year, is, of course, a festival of chamber music, which Beach calls “the most fulfilling, gratifying, enriched form of classic music because it’s small enough that you can see the notes, but it’s complex enough to inspire and engage you.” And in the intimate SummerFest concert settings, “You see them (musicians) breathe. You’re up close and personal,” Beach said. SummerFest 2015 begins Aug. 5 and runs through Aug. 28, with most performances at the Museum of Contemporary Art’s Sherwood Auditorium. This year’s lineup, assembled by SummerFest Music Director Cho-Liang Lin, is star-studded as always, with scheduled performances by artists including violinists Augustin Hadelich and Kyoko Takezawa, percussionist Steven Schick and the San Diego-based ensemble red fish blue fish, two resident string quartets (the Escher and the Borromeo) and three programs of works by the festival’s featured composer, Dmitri Shostakovich, which star, among others, pianist Vladimir Feltsman and violinist Dmitry Sitkovetsky. “We kept saying that we should do Shostakovich,” Beach said, recalling longtime festival programming discussions. “We needed an expert, and we got two.” Feltsman and Sitkovetsky, he said, “are men who have breathed this music since they started playing as children in Russia.” The Shostakovich programs will be Aug. 21-23 in Sherwood Auditorium and will feature three of the composer’s string quartets as well as trios, octets, sonatas and more. A lecture, “Dmitri Shostakovich: Some Post-Centennial Reflections,” by scholar-in-residence Richard Taruskin, will precede the three concerts, on Aug. 20 at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library. Beach is excited about this year’s SummerFest from the get-go, however, calling the Aug. 7 “Souvenir de Florence” a “fabulous, big, rich opening night.” That program of works by Janacek, Mozart and Tchaikovsky brings back Italian-born German violinist Hadelich, who first performed in La Jolla as part of LJMS’s Winter Discovery Series and has appeared at SummerFest multiple times since. You can see and hear Hadelich in the evening’s performance of Mozart’s “Piano Quartet in E-Flat Major,” K. 493. Among other highlights of the SummerFest schedule: • The festival’s “Baroque Virtuosi” program on Aug. 11, with works by Telemann, J.S. Bach, Vivaldi, Tartini and Geminiani, boasts British Columbia-born violinist Aisslinn Nosky, who performed at SummerFest last year and who, Beach says, “electrifies the stage.” •S teven Schick, who heads the Aug. 12 program, is also “an exhilarating performer,” said Beach.

fish blue fish, violinist Michelle Kim and cellist Ralph Kirshbaum, will be a provocative musical experience. • So, too, should be the SummerFest debut of Time For Three on Aug. 19. These three graduates of Philadelphia’s Curtis Institute of Music (violinists Zachary De Pue and Nicolas Kendall, and double bassist Ranaan Meyer) offer a repertoire that morphs from classical to jazz to bluegrass — even hip-hop. • The festival concludes on Aug. 28 with “Strings, Glorious Strings!” — what Beach calls an “all-star” SummerFest Chamber Orchestra performing pieces by Mozart, J.S. Bach, Grieg and Tchaikovsky. For many SummerFest attendees, seeing these performers on stage will be far from their first encounters with them. Many participating artists spend a week or longer in residence during the festival. “These guys are here, living in the (La Jolla) Village, living in people’s homes, shopping at Vons,” said Beach. “Every time someone walks on stage, there are at least 100 people in the audience who’ve met them. They have a bond with them.” To view the complete SummerFest 2014 lineup and accompanying programming, go to ljms.org.

Author seeks to find germ of truth in gluten-free controversy BY KRISTINA HOUCK To eat or not to eat gluten — that is one of the most-asked health questions of today. Author Stephen Yafa set out to make that question easier to answer for readers of his latest book, “Grain of Truth: The Real Case For and Against Wheat and Gluten.” “I didn’t go in prejudiced one way or another,” he said. “I just wanted to know what this thing is all about and whether it has any validity.” Based in Mill Valley, California, Yafa is an author, novelist and screenwriter. He’s also a wine producer of pinot noir in the Russian River region of West Sonoma, and writes about wine for the San Francisco Chronicle and other publications. Yafa turned his attention to gluten after his wife, Bonnie, returned from a health retreat about three years ago and announced she had a “gluten neck.” “I waited for the punch line of the joke,” Yafa recalled. “She and I have never had any interest in fads — food fads or other fads.” As his wife cut bread from her diet to eliminate her neck pain, Yafa began to research wheat. Although he found articles and books that agreed gluten was “Satan’s spawn,” Yafa wanted to find the answers to his own questions. Before long, a new book emerged. Yafa explored the “true nature of wheat today” by traveling to bakeries and factories and talking with experts in the industry. “I found it very interesting to explore,” he said. Published in May, the book breaks down the botany of the wheat plant, the science of nutrition and digestion, the effects of mass production on health, and questions about gluten and fiber. “I’m trying to empower people to actually know what they’re up to, as opposed to just making assumptions based on what people tell them,” Yafa said. Yafa will be discussing his book during a lunchtime meet-and-greet book signing Aug. 5 at The Curious Fork in Solana Beach. The free event takes place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. “A lot of people who think a non-gluten diet is healthier for them probably could use a little more information than they have,” said Yafa, who is also taking part in the Aug. 4 “BREADtalks: Sip Taste Learn” event at the Leichtag Foundation in Encinitas, along with Barbara McQuiston, co-founder of The Curious Fork. “My point is to really give people back the power to make a decision about what’s good for them.” The event is being held a little more than a year after The Curious Fork opened in Solana Beach. Co-founded by chefs McQuiston and Kai Peyrefitte, The Curious Fork opened mid-June 2014 in the Ocean Pointe complex just north of the Del Mar Racetrack at 512 Via de la Valle. “We want to feature more authors and we want to talk about this topic, which I think is very important,” McQuiston said. “It’s very important for people to know what’s in their food.” Although The Curious Fork is known for its organic, gluten-free food, the local eatery is also an all-in-one café, shop and cooking school, offering a variety of cooking classes, chef

‘Up Here’ plays mind games with cute, romantic tale at La Jolla Playhouse BY DIANA SAENGER “Up Here,� a new musical comedy with book, music and lyrics by husband and wife Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez is said to go where no musical has gone before. “Up Here� is on stage now through Sept. 6 at the La Jolla Playhouse on the UC San Diego campus. The Lopez team won the 2014 Academy Award for Best Original Song, “Let It Go,� from the Disney animated film, “Frozen.� Lopez (“The Book of Mormon,� “Avenue Q�) is the youngest of just 12 people who’ve won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony Award — and the only person to win all four within a decade! He co-wrote two songs for the Disney Channel animated series “Phineas and Ferb.� His wife, Kristen, is co-creator of the Drama Desk Award-winning, Broadway musical “In Transit.� Matt Bittner (“Be A Good Little Widow,� “As You Like It,� “All Is Calm,� “Sweeney Todd,� Public Theater’s Shakespeare in the Park’s “Much Ado About Nothing�) plays the lead role as 30-something computer repairman Dan, who struggles with an attraction to perky T-shirt designer Lindsay (Betsy Wolfe). In seeing “Up Here,� Bittner believes, “audiences will understand that we’re all made of the same stuff. We’re all going through the same struggles to exist in the world, and getting to know other people is truly possible because we are so interconnected.� Bittner said he identifies with his role. “It’s kind of an uncanny connection between me and Dan. As I started reading the scenes in preparing for the audition, it felt really right for me. I was really happy when I didn’t have to audition and was suggested by my agent for the role. “Dan tends to have a bit more commentary on the world than he has with the actual world itself. It’s like his inner storm overpowers his ability to get the things he’s hoping for out of life. I can identify with that in feelings about my chances of happiness. “That seems to be his struggle throughout the show. He’s trying to really live in the world with other people, and not just the world that exists in his own mind.� “Up Here� is directed by Tony Award-nominee Alex Timbers (Broadway’s “Rocky,� OffBroadway’s “Here Lies Love,� Playhouse’s “Peter and the Starcatcher.�) Bittner said he’s fond of and familiar with Timber’s work. “His ‘Peter and the Starcatcher’ was one of my favorite shows in New York,� Bittner
Betsy Wolfe (Lindsay) and Matt Bittner (Dan), share an interesting relationship in ‘Up Here,’ directed by Alex Timbers at La Jolla Playhouse. Courtesy photo said. “I saw the final performance at the New York Theatre workshop before it went to Broadway. I loved the show. It was so special how clean, creative and simple an ensemble work it was. I also laughed a lot.� In “Up Here,� Bittner said one of his favorite scenes is well-constructed and described as a love triangle between a guy and a girl and the guy’s consciousness. “Becky beautifully sings this amazing song that gives you just enough of what’s going on that you almost wish the song would continue longer,� he said. “Up Here� runs through Sept. 6 in the Mandell Weiss Theatre at the La Jolla Playhouse, 2910 La Jolla Village Drive, UCSD campus.

Interfaith Hands of Peace welcomes ‘kids who came to tell their stories’ • Israeli, Palestinian and American teenagers experience life together during three-week camp BY KRISTINA HOUCK While the Israeli-Palestinian conflict continues on the other side of the globe, Israeli, Palestinian and American teens recently came together to break down stereotypes and build bridges during a summer camp in Carlsbad. Organized by Hands of Peace, the three-week program took place July 9-28 at Pacific Ridge School. “We have a lot of kids who came to tell their stories, to try to understand where the other side is coming from, and to also try to feel hopeful about what the future can bring,” said San Diego Site Director Scott Silk. Founded in 2002, Hands of Peace is an interfaith organization that develops peacebuilding and leadership skills in Israeli, Palestinian and American teens through dialogue and personal relationships. For the past decade, Silk has worked with the Chicago-based nonprofit, which holds annual summer retreats for students ages 15 through 18. Last summer, he helped launch a sister program in San Diego’s coastal North County, where 24 students learned leadership skills and promoted peace in the Middle East. “There needs to be a way for people from each side to see each other, because I firmly believe you have to look through the lens of the other side to truly find a way to reach peace,” said Seth, a 16-year-old from Olivenhain, who returned to the camp for the second year. “It’s really amazing for me to see Israelis and Palestinians come together and be friends. It’s really inspirational.” Hands of Peace raised $140,000 to kick off its inaugural retreat last year. This year, the organization raised $185,000 so all 27 participants could receive full or partial scholarships, with many having experienced violence and loss as a result of the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Of the 27 students, 10 returned for the second-year program, with seven from the inaugural San Diego program. Like other returnees, Seth, a San Dieguito Academy junior, focused on leadership development this year. “It ended up being three of the best weeks of my life,” recalled Seth. His family is Jewish, and he has relatives in Israel. “This year I’m learning to become an inspiration leader, who maybe someday could have the tools to make change in the community or the world.”
Most of the Middle Eastern teens met “the other side” for the first time. They stay with local families and are exposed to American culture. The camp also benefits American teens, as many had never met anyone from the Middle East. Through the program, all participants share their perspectives and work together to bring about positive change. “I think that dialogue between people, especially Israeli and Palestinian kids, is really important,” said 17-year-old Sophie of Cardiff, who learned about the retreat through her temple. “A lot of them had never talked to someone from the other side. This makes the other side look more human, and that’s a really important first step to peace.” The program includes intensive daily dialogue sessions led by professional facilitators as well as educational activities and visits to a church, synagogue and mosque. Among this year’s activities, students painted portraits of each other, cooked ethnic food, shared cultural dances and participated in a filmmaking workshop. Participants also painted four murals that will be displayed throughout San Diego County for six months and then displayed in Israel for six months. “This has had the most impact of any summer camp I’ve ever been,” said 15-yearold Michael, a sophomore at Pacific Ridge School. “Hands of Peace is really about the human aspect — conflict resolution through humanity,” added the Rancho Santa Fe resident, who encouraged local students to apply to the program next year. In addition to the summer program, Hands of Peace offers a year-round alumni club in the U.S., Israel and the West Bank that serves more than 400 graduates. These young leaders have launched grass-roots peace-building initiatives in their home communities. After participating in the summer program, Sophie, a senior at San Dieguito Academy, has reconsidered life after college. “The humanitarian aspect of serving the world might fit me better,” she said. “It’s been a really incredible few days,” she said at the start of the program. “It’s lifechanging.” For more about Hands of Peace, visit www.handsofpeace.org.

“Hilarious” is the only way to describe “The Male Intellect: An Oxymoron?” as Robert Dubac, ransacks his brain to answer the age-old question, “What do women want?” This Off-Broadway hit one-man show pinpoints the differences between the sexes and then celebrates them with 90 minutes of nonstop laughter. “The Male Intellect: An Oxymoron?” will play for one night only at North Coast Repertory Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 11. Tickets are $25, available now. Call 858-481-1055 or visit www. northcoastrep.org. North Coast Repertory Theatre is at 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Ste D, Solana Beach, CA 92075. When the show opens, we meet “Bobby” in a very confused state, having been dumped by the girl of his dreams. Unable to understand why, he channels some not-so-wise but hilarious advice from his five chauvinistic mentors. With a shrug of his shoulders or a crook of his neck, Robert Dubac seamlessly transforms himself into these five alter egos, each offering his own brand of misguided advice.

2015 Patrons of the Prado’s Masterpiece Gala Patrons of the Prado’s Masterpiece Gala, in celebration of Balboa Park’s 100-year anniversary of the Panama-California International Exposition, was held July 18 at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion.

Fleet Science Center; Museum of Photographic Arts; Mingei International Museum; Timken Museum of Art; San Diego Hall of Champions; and San Diego Natural History Museum.

It is a destination, not only for San Diegans, but for visitors from throughout the U.S. and the world.” The event also honored San Diego Mayor Kevin L. Faulconer.

Attic Construction evicts rodents from your home and prevents their return BY MARTI GACIOCH There are few things worse for a homeowner than having visitors decide to stay — especially the four-legged kind like mice and rodents. To eliminate nesting and any future visits, Attic Construction co-owners Yahav Caine and Joseph Sheiner can help. Their construction team specializes in insulation services and rodent solutions that provide an inventive, nontoxic way to evict undesirable creatures from attics, end their staycation and block their return. When Caine and Sheiner enter a client’s attic, they look for any openings for mice or rodents. “These creatures can crawl inside a crack the size of a quarter,” Yahav Caine said. “They are very smart animals, so it’s important to close up an entire structure’s openings because if they’ve nested, they know a place has their babies in it, and they’ll return.” Attic Construction uses up-to-code professional grade sealant and Corning Otis metal screen mesh — the only material rodents can’t chew through — to treat all entry points. Every gap, crack and crevice is sealed while still allowing for maximum natural airflow. After installation, crew members will return to make sure all the creatures have expired (from starvation), and clear out dead animals and rodent droppings and debris. If necessary, they’ll also pull out all the insulation (including dust, if the roof was replaced) before hauling everything to a dump site. Their next step is to clean and sanitize the entire attic area using chlorine-based bleach that eliminates any foul-smelling contaminants homeowners may be breathing. “We don’t use anything toxic, so our clients can remain in the home while we’re working,” Caine said. Caine and Sheiner worked for six years in the Bay Area construction industry before opening San Diego Attic Construction in 2013. “Our key feature is that we don’t define ourselves as a pest control company, but we do offer solutions like closing up openings wherever pests can enter,” Caine said. “And while there’s no 100-percent guarantee with rodents, our methods provide a good probability that an infestation situation won’t happen again.” Caine and Sheiner said they take great pride in their quality of work and affordability, and strive to keep their customers satisfied. “There’s nothing better at the end of the day than to hear a client say, ‘Thank you guys for doing this; I didn’t want to crawl in there myself!’” Attic Construction is at 5519 Claremont Mesa Blvd. Unit 205, San Diego.

Cardiff-by-the-Sea is ready to celebrate man’s best friend with its “Dog Days of Summer” festival Aug. 8! This annual one-day street fair for dogs and dog lovers will be from 9:30 a.m.-5 p.m. on Newcastle Ave., Aberdeen Drive and Liverpool Drive. The event is hosted by Cardiff 101 Main Street and is expected to draw 10,000 fourlegged friends, their fans and family members. This event is made possible through numerous sponsors, including the County of San Diego, Cardiff 101 Main Street and Cardiff’s favorite dog store, Dirty Dogs. “This is a great event to benefit the Cardiff community,” said County Supervisor Dave Roberts. “It is fun for the public and their pets, and is the largest of its kind in the region. The County of San Diego is proud to support this community event.” Beginning at 10 a.m., watch or enter four different dog contests including Cutest Puppy, Dog/Owner Look-A-Like, Best Looking Big Dog and Best Looking Small Dog. After the contest, local musical talents will be showcased at the Lost Abbey beer garden, with Jefferson Washington at 1 p.m. and Second Cousins at 3 p.m. Bring your pup and enjoy a beer while listening to these local legends! Highlights of this year include a Blessing of the Dogs by the Rev. Christian Sorensen of the Seaside Center of Spiritual Living, more than 200 booths including pet adoptions from local shelters and rescue organizations as well as specialty pet products and services, food vendors, a doggie photo booth courtesy of Photography by Gabriela, doggie cool zones and a large silent auction! New this year, to celebrate the 10th Annual Cardiff Dog Days of Summer, Canidae and GoPro will be hosting a Diving Dog Competition for dogs of all sizes, breeds and abilities. Check out www.americandivingdogs.com.

Local animal rescue groups to hold Surf ‘n Paws event Aug. 9 in Del Mar Synergy Animal Rescue, Lionel’s Legacy, and Kira announced their first collaborative effort to raise awareness about the role they play in rescuing our community’s most vulnerable animals. From noon to 3 p.m. Aug. 9, these groups will hold their first Surf ‘N Paws event at Tsavo’s Canine Rehabilitation Center (2120 Jimmy Durante Blvd, Ste. 120, Del Mar, CA 92014). They hope to draw attention to the world of rescue beyond local shelters. Carla Naden, director of synergy, said, “When we work together as rescues, our collective voice becomes so much stronger for the animals. A collaboration of love always wins. The animals need us to win, and together we create the change needed to ensure every animal, no matter how sick or how old, is given respect, love, and dignity.” Synergy, Lionel’s Legacy, and Kira hope this event accomplishes two things: • Educate the public about the importance of independent nonprofit animal rescues. Many people believe all animals in need are rescued by the local shelters, when
in reality, outside rescues work every day to rescue sick, injured, and geriatric animals from overburdened shelters. • Encourage the public to get involved. The only way these rescues are successful is with the public’s support. Their call to action is for local citizens to foster, adopt, volunteer, or donate. Thousands of desperately sick and injured animals have been tossed aside by society, and often, people who want to help simply don’t know how. This event will show the community how to get involved.

When they know their pets will be safe, it allows them to escape and break the chain of violence. Safehouse is also a lifeline for veterans, senior citizens, accident victims, and — most recently — victims of the fires. Thank you, Zooinitas!” The exhibition will be open from Saturday, Aug. 1 to Sept. 10.

Courtesy photo dren, ages 4 to 18, with various physical disabilities including spinal cord injuries, amputations, spina bifida, cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy. Campers work with volunteers and sports counselors who share a passion for adaptive sports, as they learn the fundamentals of sports such as wheelchair basketball, wheelchair tennis, archery, swimming, hand cycling, water tubing, water skiing, wheelchair soccer, rugby and much more. They develop important skills to help them stay active and healthy, and develop positive self-esteem, leadership skills and independence. “Our summer camp helps these kids establish a desire to be involved in lifelong, fun sports activities,” said Nancy Rosenberger, president of the ASRA Board. On Aug. 15, the camp’s last day, the organization has a free Family Day and Resource Fair that is open to the public. Face painting, food sampling, and vendors providing resources for families with a child or adult with physical disabilities will participate. “We encourage the community to be a part of this event and learn about who we are and what we do. Once you do, you will be hooked,” Rosenberger said. The Adaptive Sports and Recreational Association provides year-round sports and recreational opportunities to physically disabled youth and adults throughout San Diego County. They offer competitive and recreational sports leagues such as wheelchair tennis, sitting volleyball and sled hockey. They also offer clinics and camps and are serving a growing military population. “ASRA is not simply about sports,” said Teresa Miller, in charge of camp and business development. “It is about changing the hearts and minds of people with physical disabilities and empowering them to live their lives to the fullest. We believe that everyone deserves an opportunity to play.” The Anthem Blue Cross Foundation’s support has been an integral part of creating these opportunities. This year’s supporting camp sponsors include The San Diego Chargers, Hall Wealth Advisors and the Torrey Pines Kiwanis Club.
