Fire risk above normal this season, RSF Fire Chief says BY KAREN BILLING Five years removed from the Witch Creek Fire, the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District is preparing for the risk of another devastating blaze coming through the community. “Right now we are in the height of fire season. This year we are expected to have an above normal large fire season in Southern California,” Fire Chief Tony Michel told the Rancho Santa Fe Association board on Sept. 20. “We have had more fire starts this year in California than ever before in recent history.” Several elements are in play to heighten the risk for a wildland fire event, Michel said. Last year Rancho Santa Fe had more grass fires than ever and the fuels that burned in the Witch Creek Fire are coming back. Additionally, because there was a lot of rain early on in the year, there is a lot more grass crop. “We are at critical fuel levels,” said Michel, noting the level of moisture within the fuels is at 60 percent, which means fire starts much more easily. Also amping up the risk is the extremely dry offshore Santa Ana winds that come at this time of year. “Fall Santa Ana winds really expedite what fire season is in Southern California,” Michel said. “They really dry things up and can foster fire.” Michel said the fire district has been very aggressive about fire prevention. The district has been working on a strong weed abatement program, roadway clearing and creSee FIRE, page 18

RSF Association board, Village gas station rep. address screening issue BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe Association is trying to resolve a Covenant violation issue with the gas station at the entrance to the village and held a hearing with gas station representative Mark Rababy at the Association board’s Sept. 20 meeting. RSF Association Manager Pete Smith made the determination that the station was in violation of the regulatory code that states that no vehicle, such as horse trailers, shall be stored when in view from the street or other residences.

Trailers have been observed parked for long periods of times in the lot adjacent to the station. Typically such hearings are held in closed executive session, but Rababy requested it be held in open session. Rababy and Smith had differing opinions on what constituted “storage.” “I feel like I’m being harassed by this board,” Rababy said, who noted that the trailers are there for repairs, awaiting estimates or parts.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

RSF Association board briefs, Sept. 20 meeting Riding Club to receive upgrade The Rancho Santa Fe Riding Club is getting a little facelift. At its Sept. 20 board meeting, the RSF Association approved renovations and aesthetic improvements to the 11acre club on Rambla de las Flores. “It’s going to be a nice enhancement,” said Arnold Green, building commissioner. The club will be going back to its old colors of white with green trim, a small balcony will be added to the front of the clubhouse, and some brick siding to part of the structure. Several wooden trellises will be added throughout the property to provide shade for gathering places. The barns will also get a fresh coat of paint, replacement wood siding and the addition of cupolas as an architectural feature. The Art Jury approved the changes with the conditions that landscaping screens the project from off-site. “I want to congratulate the board of the Riding Club, especially Larry (Spitcaufsky) who’s been working on this for a long time,” said Director Ann Boon.

specific plan currently allows for just three single family homes and the specific plan amendment would allow them to increase the density on the site, as well as transfer 10 dwelling units from inside the Crosby to outside the development. The RSF Association staff had concerns about the density of the revised plan and visual impact. “Just about all the rooftops would be visible from Del Dios Highway,” said Chris Livoni, associate planner. “This density is not seen elsewhere on the Del Dios corridor.” In addition to the visual impact, the 10 additional homes would likely add to traffic on the highway. Holler explained that having the 10 homes removed from the inside of the Crosby affects traffic patterns as they would have to enter and exit onto Del Dios while homes inside the Crosby have multiple access points. Manager Pete Smith noted that the Association was involved in the original planning for the Crosby and this particular slice of property had an option for a small commercial center and a recreational field. That option expired in 2008 to the Association’s disappointment and the allowed use for three single-family detached homes took its place.

Board opposes Crosby Enclave The Rancho Santa Fe Association Board voted unanimously to oppose a specific plan amendment for a housing development on a 5-acre parcel off Del Dios Highway. The Association had concerns about the density and visual impact of California West Communities’ proposal for 13 two-story homes on Del Dios Highway and Bing Crosby Boulevard, called Crosby Enclave. “While this is located outside the Covenant, it’s fairly common for the Association to look at adjacent development and see if there will be a negative impact,” Assistant Manager Ivan Holler said, “This type of development, all two-story homes, is not consistent with the character of the corridor. The density wouldn’t be a problem if it was located in the right area.” The proposed development is located outside the main gate of the Crosby. The 13, single-family detached homes would be built on 7,000 to 8,000-square-foot lots. The site’s

Timed parking approved for La Granada After years where the curbs were illegally painted green to create timed parking spaces, the Rancho Santa Fe Association has approved official timed parking for the northeastern corner of La Granada and Paseo Delicias. The approval will bring four, two-hour stalls to the road near Delicias restaurant. After reviewing previous parking surveys and a request from the property owner, Association staff determined the addition of timed parking wouldn’t be detrimental to maintaining the balance of timed and un-timed parking in the village. — Reported by Karen Billing

Caltrans presents update on plan to widen I-5 BY JOE TASH Caltrans unveiled new details regarding its plan to widen I-5 in North County at a public meeting in Encinitas on Wednesday, Sept. 19, which include additional work to restore and preserve lagoons, and more bicycle and pedestrian paths. At the meeting, held at the Encinitas Community and Senior Center, North County residents were able to examine graphics depicting different elements of the project, ask questions of Caltrans technical experts, and even dictate comments and questions to a court reporter. The new information about the project is contained in a draft supplemental Environmental Impact Report, which was officially released for public comment on Aug. 31. The public has until Oct. 15 to review and comment on the document. Additional documents to be released in the coming months include a final EIR and a “public works plan,” that will also include plans to upgrade rail service along the I-5 corridor.

Caltrans officials stressed that the project includes more than adding four carpool lanes — for a total of 12 lanes — between La Jolla and Oceanside. “This is not a highwaycentric solution,” said Allan Kosup, Caltrans I-5 Corridor director, in brief remarks to the crowd of about 50. Instead, they said, the project will include rail improvements such as doubletracking, enhancements to North County lagoons, bicycle paths along the entire 27 miles of the project, and pedestrian walkways. “Our goal is to enhance the environment in the community while trying to provide congestion relief,” said Arturo Jacobo, Caltrans project manager. Those who didn’t attend the meeting can view the environmental documents and provide comments at the project website, www.keepsandiegomoving. com.

San Diego County Taxpayers’ Association Update on SD Polo Club lease supports high school district bond process may be coming soon

The San Diego County Taxpayers’ Association (SDCTA) recently released its position on the San Dieguito Union High School District bond. The SDCTA said it supports the high school district’s bond, Proposition AA. Of the 12 SDCTA criteria, SDUHSD met 10. Regarding its position on the San Dieguito Union High School District’s bond, the SDCTA stated: “SDCTA supports Proposition AA. The San Dieguito Union High School District’s proposed bond measure meets key provisions of SDCTA’s Bond Support Criteria. The application submitted by the district outlines the need of the district, plans and draft budgets for each of the proposed proj-

ects. Voters within the district will have an understanding of the program prior to the election, but other phases will be determined following the election. The descriptions of the projects submitted and outlined in the Master Plan have been thoroughly vetted, and no reason has been found that would prevent the district from executing the projects. The district has adopted SDCTA’s policy regarding the use of Capital Appreciation Bonds.” In response to the SDCTA’s position, San Dieguito Union High School District Superintendent Ken Noah said, “The support by the SDCTA was certainly one that we had hoped to obtain. It was reassuring See BOND, page 18

RSF man and alleged co-conspirator charged with scheme to defraud victims out of more than $90 million A federal grand jury in San Francisco indicted James B. Catledge, of Rancho Santa Fe, and Derek F.C. Elliott, of Orangeville, Ontario, Canada, on Sept. 18, with one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and three counts of mail fraud, United States Attorney Melinda Haag announced. The charges allege a scheme in which Catledge and Elliott fraudulently solicited more than $90 million from investors to build

a resort in the Dominican Republic, but the resort never opened. According to the indictment, Catledge, 45, and Elliott, 42, used a bank loan to purchase an old hotel in the Dominican Republic, which they called the Juan Dolio Resort. They then began to renovate the hotel and to solicit investments in the resort. The indictment further alleges that in their sales pitch, Catledge and Elliot failed to tell investors that

the full commissions being taken from their investment were approximately 44 percent, that the renovations were underfunded, that investors’ money was being used on other projects, and the returns they promised were unsupportable and could not be achieved. Catledge and Elliott collected approximately $91.3 million from investors. Of that amount, they allegedly spent approximately $13.4

BY JOE TASH For about two years, the San Diego Polo Club has been waiting to find out from the city of San Diego whether its lease will be renewed for the 80-acre parcel of land it has occupied since 1986. In the next week or so, the club hopes to get an indication of the city’s plans. The club’s original 26-year lease for the city-owned property expired in March, and even before that date, the club had been in contact with the city, seeking a new lease or an extension. In 2011, the city announced it would go out to bid for a new lessee, rather than negotiate exclusively with the polo club. Alex Roth, a spokesman for the San Diego mayor’s office, said in December that the city expected to issue a request for proposals from prospective bidders in the spring of this year. However, that RFP was never issued. As of press-time for this newspaper, Roth had not responded to several inquiries seeking the status of the lease issue. In August, Mel Millstein, an aide to San Diego First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner, told attendees at a meeting of the Carmel Valley Community Planning Group that the RFP for the polo club property had been delayed as city officials seek to determine how a realignment project on El

Camino Real will affect the parcel. The polo club property is located at the corner of Via De La Valle and El Camino Real. This week, polo club president Ron Bonaguidi said his group was notified by the city’s real estate department that it should get some information about the lease process by the end of this month. “We’re hopeful, I’m attending church on a regular basis,” Bonaguidi said. Since its lease expired in March, the club has occupied the property on a monthto-month basis, Bonaguidi said. At the time its lease expired, the club was required to pay the city $9,842 per month for the use of the property. In addition to the club’s own polo events, the property is subleased to other groups for such events as lacrosse and soccer tournaments. Because the club is on a month-to-month basis, Bonaguidi said, it has been unable to give a firm answer to the outside groups about the availability of the property for events scheduled early next year. Bonaguidi said the El Camino realignment project will encroach on the polo club property, but engineers have not determined specifically how much property will be needed.

RSF Garden Club seeks new general manager The Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club is looking for a new general manager. Steve DiZio has managed the club, on a volunteer basis, for the past two years. Steve is the husband of the RSF Garden Club President Helen DiZio. “He stepped up when the club needed a manager and has done a brilliant job. However, Steve would like to get back to his life. So it’s time for the club to hire a general manager and not rely on volunteers for the day-to-day operations of the organization. Steve and Helen have put in so much time, energy and expertise, it would be impossible to find another volunteer or group of volunteers to do what they have done over the last couple of years.” says Janet Christ, RSF Garden Club board member. Following a Community Workshop and Strategic Planning Meeting held in July, the Garden Club formed a Strategic Planning Committee to develop forward-looking operational recommendations for review by the board of directors. “The committee determined that the Garden Club would benefit by hiring a full-time general manager and we

have set out to find the right person to fill this spot,” said committee member Barry Zarling. “We are looking for a person with non-profit management experience who can develop and implement operational strategies that will increase membership, improve fundraising, and take the Garden Club to the next level of success. Obviously, the GM would also need to manage and expand the ongoing programs that we have in place. It is a great opportunity for the right person who is interested in managing a local non-profit.” “From a pure day-to-day standpoint the GM will need to have really great computer skills and be proficient with financial software, desktop publishing and website administration,” said Phil Reilly, also a member of the search committee. “Additionally, the GM will also oversee the use of the clubhouse by members, community organizations and as a special events venue.” For more information regarding the Garden Club and general manager position, visit the website at www.rsfgardenclub.org.

RSF’s Malia Rappaport to be honored as ‘Outstanding Youth Volunteer’ RSF resident Malia Rappaport is a 2012 honoree as “Outstanding Youth Volunteer” for National Philanthropy Day. She is a volunteer for Kids Included Together and Girl Scouts of America. Malia was nominated by Girl Scouts of San Diego and Imperial Counties and Kids Included Together. For 100 years, Girl Scouting has built girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place. Malia, 17, exemplifies that mission.

Malia has been a Girl Scout for 12 years, and she calls Girl Scouting “a driving force” in her life. Her projects have included spending a year working with the Oceanside Women’s Shelter, assisting with its transition house.

Iszak often thinks about his first 25 years of life living in a totalitarian society, a time when he said he was “punished for what I thought, let alone what I said.” Never did he imagine getting to the happy place in life where he is today. The memories and emotions never left him, and about seven years ago he traveled back to Hungary to fill in the pieces, his research leading him to author the book “Free for All to Freedom,” which he published about a year and a half ago and is available on Amazon.com. He said a third of the book describes the escape — the hijackers’ forceful seizure at pistol point of a Hungarian airliner. “There was a team of

seven posing as passengers, escaping through the Iron Curtain,” said Iszak, who is currently working on a screenplay version. “We invented hijacking. Nobody had done that before.” The remaining two-thirds of the book explains why one would go to such means to escape. “It describes the conditions under oppressive regimes,” he said, “what it’s like to be a slave in every sense of the word.” For more information on Silver Age Yoga, visit www.silverageyoga.org, and for more information on the Iszaks’ new Rancho Santa Fe studio, visit www.rhythmyogaanddance.com.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

RSF family of entrepreneurs ‘pay it forward’ in many ways BY KATHY DAY As Jason Hughes tells the story, when he and Shay got married after graduating from Pepperdine University 23 years ago they were $75,000 in debt. They lived in an apartment in the University Towne Center area where rent was $825 a month and his take-home pay was $800. Even with Shay working they were just scraping by, said Jason. But with a sense that her job was making her sick, she quit working. A day later she found out she was pregnant – and without health insurance. “My parents asked what we were thinking,” Shay said, sitting across from Jason in the downtown office building that houses their company, Hughes Marino. “We were forced into a sink-or-swim moment,” he said. “I worked really hard and fortunately had Shay at my side. I did a few things right and we’ve been rewarded for it.” Those few things have put Hughes Marino on the map in San Diego and Orange County – they recently opened a Newport Beach office — as leaders in representing only tenant and buyers in the commercial real estate industry. Jason, who started his own business 20 years ago with former partner Craig Irving, formed the new company with La Jollan David Marino as executive vice president in January 2011. Marino and everyone but Irving moved to Hughes Marino. Jason, who said he came from a family that had nothing and “was ultimately pushed out of every house they lived in,” put himself through school doing everything from selling houses to cooking at the Chart House, where he met Shay when they were 16. Once they were in a place financially where they could begin giv-

Involvement The Hughes family stays involved. Here’s a partial list of some of their past and present activities: • New Children’s Museum • Rancho Santa Fe Community Endowment • Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego • San Diego Opera • Gaslamp Quarter Historical Foundation • Child Abuse Prevention Foundation • San Diego Cares • Fresh Start Surgical Gifts • Jewish Family Services • Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Diego County • Carmel Valley Soccer Association • Boy Scouts of America • Make-A-Wish Foundation • Autism Speaks ing back to their community, they weren’t shy about pitching in. Whether it was the Rancho Santa Fe Endowment, the Child Abuse Prevention Center (now the Polinksy Center) or the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the couple has been doing their part, mostly with children, Jason said. Over the years, the 14-year Rancho Santa Fe residents have contributed “millions of dollars,” often giving back some or all of their fees and then some. With their stylish new office space they are now providing the space for free for hosting events and meetings for nonprofits. They are not alone, he added, since their employees also are active in nonprofits throughout the region. One of the most challenging projects Jason took on was when he asked to take the reins of the New

Children’s Museum board when the organization was facing a 30-day deadline before its downtown site would revert to the Center City Development Corp. Told that CCDC would extend the timeline for an additional 30 days if Jason took the presidency, he kicked his real estate expertise into high gear. He headed a campaign that within three months had raised $15 million in cash and obtained a $10 million construction loan from Torrey Pines Bank – where he was a founder and past board member. He also put the Hughes Marino construction management team to work overseeing the project – at no cost to the museum – and within two years the museum paid back the construction loan. “I did what I had to do,” he said. Shay, who for years had been a stay-at-home mom for their three children, is now the chief operating officer for the company or, as Jason puts it, a “stay-at work” mom who manages a larger family. She can also still keep an eye on their children, since their two oldest, Starr, 22, and Tucker, 19, — who both graduated from the University of San Diego at age 20 — work for the company. Bailey, now 17, has been acting since he was 7 and has his sights set on becoming a writer. “Bailey has always been a storyteller,” Shay said. Shay’s company bio notes that she was “unknowingly recruited” into the business by Jason who got her to direct the firm’s television commercials. Then she tackled the website and started helping with marketing, business strategies and internal operations. But when they bought the 12,000-square-foot building at the corner of Front and Beech streets she

The Hughes family: (l-r) Jason, Starr, Tucker, Bailey and Shay. was all in. As Jason led a brief tour of the building, he talked about what went into gutting and restructuring it with its wrap-around mezzanine housing individual offices for their staff, which soon will number 29. But mostly he praised his wife’s talent and ability to transform not just the space but the office culture. She came up with the original design that is centered on the “living room,” complete with a baby grand piano and big-screen TV that shows family photos of not just the Hughes clan but also of their employees and their families. From the start, the living room was designed to be a place where their team would be comfortable as well as a spot they could open up to the community, she said. “It’s a gift to our team members and organization and our clients.” To one side of the living room is a full kitchen, complete with one Subzero refrigerator with individual

lunch boxes for each employee and another that is stocked each Monday with goodies like waffles, oatmeal and juices. To the rear is a putting green, which gets regular use, and a billiards table. “At 5 o’clock every day, someone is playing,” Shay said. And recently a new player captured the trophy from the monthly tournament. Down the hall are spalike bathrooms, complete with a shower, and a fully equipped gym that has enabled employees to drop their gym memberships. Of course, there are large and small conference rooms, too, equipped with the latest technology to facilitate client discussions and planning. Shay selected most of the materials, furnishings, lighting and art and kept close watch as their homeaway-from-home took shape. “I’m so grateful, but mostly I’m grateful for Shay wanting to be involved,” Ja-

son said. “She has changed the company.” That change put the emphasis on family, in part because of the way the employees interact in the new space, but also on the focus of having their families be part of the culture. A wall leading up the back stairs is a family portrait wall; spouses are invited to quarterly meetings where a speaker focuses on making their lives better. Next month the entire staff and their spouses or significant others will gather at The Pelican Hill Resort in Newport Beach. The culture also emphasizes the happiness of the individual and strives to be more than just about business, Shay said. “The happier we are as individuals the better we do at everything in our lives. “ To that Jason added: “Happy people know one way to stay happy is to make others happy. It’s selffulfilling.” For more information, visit www.hughesmarino. com.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Help RSF School teachers give your students the time they deserve BY THE RSF EDUCATION FOUNDATION The headlines about the state of education throughout California are daunting. In Carlsbad, school trustees voted to “close two schools, layoff teachers, increase class sizes and reduce training.” In the Poway Unified School District, a public hearing was held “to continue flexibility in staffing at grades 4–8 by waiving Education Code 41376,” and “increase the maximum allowable class size average from 30.9 students to 33 in grades 4-8 through the 2013–2014 school year.” Even with a well established parent funded education foundation, class sizes in another California basic aid district, Los Altos, are as high as 25 in the lower grades (K-3). Due to the budget crisis, California Education Code was modified to allow “the student-teacher ratio in grades K-3 shall be up to 30 to 1” through this school year. That ratio may increase to 33 to 1 next year. Grades 4-6 are allowed a maximum of 34 students. Without the generosity of the Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation (RSFEF) our children could be in that very situation or worse. Fortunately, students at R. Roger Rowe School (Ranch School) continue to enjoy average class sizes of 18 in grades K-8. For the third consecutive year, the RSFEF has pledged $1 million to the Ranch School. This contribution is approximately 11 percent of the district’s 2012-2013 budget. The majority of this grant is used to pay for teachers in order to keep class sizes small across all grades K-8. “Right now, in our state, there are budget cuts left and right,” commented Amanda Valentine, a second grade teacher at the Ranch School. “The fact that our school gets to ensure a 20:1 student to teacher ratio is unheard of in any other district in the state.” Students Needs Are Met Mrs. Valentine added, “For me as a teacher that means I can give my students individualized instruction and meet with them daily. I can make sure I know my students well and none of their needs go unmet in my classroom.” Veteran Fifth Grade Teacher Steve Riviere concurred, “Last year I had 17 students. It was incredible! It allowed me to give each student the time that they deserve.” Mr. Riviere clearly loves to work here and it is no wonder that he, like many other teachers at our school, is well loved by students and parents. We are fortunate to retain great teachers like Mrs. Valentine and Mr. Riviere. The low student to teacher ratio helps us recruit high caliber teachers as well. “Every year at San Diego Unified I had over 32 students. All the support staff had been cut including librarians and paraprofessionals. Some students I would only get to meet with once a week. I felt a little bit guilty sometimes,” noted Jennifer Overstreet, a new fourth grade teacher with 19 students in her class this year at the Ranch School. She taught most recently in the San Diego Unified School District. “Here, all my students have already been assessed at this point. I know right off the bat each student’s strengths and where I need to push them to excel. With all the support, I can focus on curriculum development and instruction.” Ms. Overstreet added, “I feel so fortunate to be here! I know it’s not the norm.” Nona Richard, a second grade teacher at the Ranch School, joined us this year from the Vista Unified School District. She offered, “Having 15 students in my class provides the opportunity to uniquely tailor instruction to meet the specific needs of each student, allowing him/her to achieve to full potential. I am encouraged and expected to adapt and scaffold delivery of content to differentiate the learning experience unique to the child. I know of no other district that refines learning to this level, creating an educational experience second to none.” Ms. Richard added, “The small student to faculty ratio here is a teachers’ and parents’ dream!” How fortunate our children are to have such enthusiastic teachers! You can hear the enthusiasm in their voices. Retain These Incredible Teachers Of note, last year 95 percent of all staff at the Ranch School contributed to the RSFEF, a testament to how much they love to work here. “As a teacher I feel I am given the support to do my job. That’s basically the reason why I continue to work here,” stated Mr. Riviere. Please help us retain these incredible teachers. The RSF Education Foundation is asking that each family contribute their “Fair Share” cost per child of $1,609 ($1 million divided by 640 students) or to the best of their ability. This year the Cap and Gown level is $2,000 per student and the Benefactor level is $3,000 per student. The Foundation also relies heavily on the philanthropic contributions of the Scholars’ Circle members. This group comprises 20 percent of the school’s families and local businesses who make multi-year commitments of $35,000 or more that fund 50 percent of the total grant to the school. Contribute by Red Envelope Friday Please contribute to the RSFEF by Friday, Sept. 28, 2012 – Red Envelope Friday. RSF Education Foundation Chair Glenn Oratz remarked, “Everyone should feel proud to participate at any level that is appropriate for your family and be a part of supporting our school.” All school families are encouraged to participate. Community and corporate donations are also encouraged. For questions or more information, please go to www.rsfef.org or contact the Education Foundation at 858-756-1141 x208. Be proud to participate. The difference is you.

SCREENING continued from page 1 “All of those vehicles are not storage.” Smith restated that he believed it was a storage issue, that it was a violation of the “spirit and intent” of the regulatory code as one of the vehicles was there for 30 days. He said the property needs to be screened if vehicles are being stored there. “A lot of complaints are generated by the community, they’re not generated from the board or staff,” said Arnold Keene, field operations manager in response to Rababy’s harassment claim. The Association received several complaints from neighbors regarding vehicle storage on the lot behind the station, beginning last September, according to the Association staff. In November, the vehicles were removed but in observing the property, staff noticed the two trailers had returned, being stored there for a long duration. “We’ve had prior issues with Mark and there has been a lot of compliance.

Rancho Santa Fe Review The property does look a lot better than it has in the past,” Keene said. The board agreed that the problem might be resolved by some additional screening. Keene said the Association has done some supplemental landscaping around the property in a limited area. Rababy said it has grown in nicely. “All we’re doing is poking at each other, we should try to come up with a resolution that solves the problem and screening does sound like a way of doing things,” Director Eamon Callahan said. Rababy said he would be more than happy to talk about more screening as long as it is reasonable. Director Larry Spitcaufsky wondered if the real issue was the length of time the vehicles are parked on the property and how they could handle it. In asking Rababy how long repair vehicles are typically parked there, Rababy said trailers usually don’t stay for more than three weeks but they did have one car there for seven months waiting for a part.

Spitcaufksy said if a car is going to be there for seven months maybe the owner should take it home while waiting for parts. Director Callahan said he wasn’t comfortable with telling the business how long a vehicle could be on its property. While the board had the option of imposing a special assessment of $630 or suspending membership privileges, the board agreed to work with Rababy on the issue. “This is a good neighbor effort that needs to be made here,” said Vice President Anne Feighner. “We’ve done a lot to be good neighbors and we’ve gotten very little back,” Rababy said, adding he does not feel the Association supports his business, does not purchase gas at his station or use his repair shop for RSF Patrol vehicles, opting instead to take the cars out of the community. The board could not discuss his claims at that time because it was not agendized, but may put the matter on the agenda for a future meeting.

RSF Education Foundation’s Red Envelope Friday is Sept. 28 – contributions due! Sept. 28 is the RSF Education Foundation’s annual Red Envelope Friday celebration, when all families are strongly encouraged to contribute their Fair Share, or to the best of their ability, in support of a world class Five-Star Education for their children at the Ranch School. FiveStar Education programs are now in place for 2012/13 and the funds are due immediately to cover their costs. Making your contribution is easy — on Sept. 28, volunteers will be at drop off and pick up lines at the school collecting pledge forms and contributions. Also, parents will notice red boxes at the office and around campus where they can drop their contributions, or contribute online at rsfef.org by clicking “Contribute Now.” All major credit and debit cards are accepted. Pledges for future contributions are encouraged and accepted if you cannot pay by Sept. 28. Red Envelope Friday on Sept. 28 will take place from 7:45 a.m. – 8:05 a.m. and 2 p.m. – 3:15 p.m. Drop off and pick up locations are at R. Roger Rowe School. For more information about Red Envelope Friday or to make a contribution, contact the RSF Education Foundation at (858) 756-1141 x208.

RSF School Book Fair to be held Oct. 8-12 The Rancho Santa Fe School Book Fair is being held at the R. Roger Rowe School from Oct. 8-12, 7:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Room 204 (two doors down from library). The entire community is invited to participate in this week-long celebration of literacy. This year’s theme is “The All-Star Book Fair,” where “Every Reader is a Star!” The R. Roger Rowe space explorers are making discoveries every day through books. The exciting books included in this book fair challenge children to think beyond their world and develop their imagination. Perpetuating the goal of learning to love reading through this weeklong celebration helps lay the foundation for tomorrows explorers — today’s students! Community members and parent volunteers are essential each year to making the Book Fair a success! The RSF Education

Foundation is looking for explorers throughout the community who are willing to share their experiences with the children. If they can spend one to two hours at the book fair, the Foundation will announce their scheduled appearance to the learning community. Volunteers are also needed throughout each sale day to help staff the registers. Community volunteers can contact Ross Hansen at 756-1141, ext 201. Parents can sign up through the parent volunteer link on the school’s website at www.rsfschool.net. Don’t miss out; come discover how reading can be out of this world and attend the Book Fair at Rancho Santa Fe School Library, Oct. 8-12. More details on this event will be posted on the school’s website, www. rsfschool.net, or through the school’s librarian, Ross Hansen. He can be reached at rhansen@rsf.k12.ca.us.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

I-5 continued from page 2 other studies to determine how best to protect and enhance the health of the lagoons. The study found that longer bridges over three lagoons — San Elijo, Batiquitos and Buena Vista — are needed to provide better water flow in and out of the lagoons. Bridges across Penasquitos, San Dieguito and Agua Hedionda were found to be adequate, Jacobo said. Caltrans has also acquired 100 acres of land along the lagoons, which will be preserved as open space to compensate for environmental impacts of the I-5 project. Planners have also added bicycle lanes along the entire project corridor; some will be within the freeway right-of-way, while others will be on local streets, Jacobo said. Construction on the road improvements and environmental mitigation could begin in 2014, pending approval by the California Coastal Commission and other agencies, Jacobo said. The road portion of the project will cost $3.5 billion, while the total project, including rail improvements, is pegged at $6.5 billion. The estimated completion date for the entire project is 2035. Reaction to the new project details was generally positive from those who attended the meeting. “We think it’s a major step to improve the health of Batiquitos Lagoon and we’re ecstatic about that,” said Jim Brown of Encinitas, a member of the Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation. He said the foundation is concerned about the impacts of construction on the lagoon, however. And Solana Beach Councilwoman Lesa Heebner said, “I’m pleased with what I see. They responded well to the concerns many of us had about the health of our lagoons.” Heebner questioned Caltrans staff about a planned access ramp at Manchester Avenue, which she said is a concern to the community. Jacobo said the ramp has been redesigned to go below the freeway, rather than above it, and that a planned park-and-ride lot at Manchester has been downsized from 471 to 150 spaces. Betsy Cotton of Encinitas said she attended the meeting to find out more about the project. She said she appreciates the efforts of Caltrans to plan the project, but wants to see more emphasis on public transportation. “I just feel badly that so much real estate is being given up to cars,” she said. “If everything keeps going the way it is, it’ll be one giant freeway from coast to coast.”

Education Matters/Opinion

Driving home a point BY MARSHA SUTTON Accompanying my son to a twoMarsha Sutton hour presentation on safe driving was not my idea of a good time, but attendance is required by the San Dieguito Union High School District for both student and parent, for students to receive a high school campus parking permit. I knew what they would tell him, just what we’ve been telling him for ages – the usual admonitions against texting, cell phone use, drugs, alcohol, speeding and distracted driving. Not that those aren’t valuable lessons to hear. But since dire warnings tend to lose their punch after the 30th or 40th time, I thought he would just tune them out. And I’d be bored to tears. I couldn’t have been more wrong. There were tears alright, but not from boredom. This was a powerful presentation – full of jokes and laughter, somber moments, an engaged audience, and a dynamic California Highway Patrol officer who connected with the kids on all levels. He packed a wallop with his photos and videos that, sure enough, presented the expected warnings in living (and sometimes not so living) color. But the difference was they were delivered in ways that captured our attention and had an impact. Called Start Smart, the program was developed by the CHP and is a free twohour driver safety education class that targets new and future drivers ages 15 to 20. Students must attend with a parent or guardian. Beginning in 2011, SDUHSD required attendance at a Start Smart presentation, to obtain a campus parking permit. The previous year, the program was voluntary. But because so many parents “loved it” and “thought it helped inform kids with real information instead of the online classes kids take today,” SDUHSD associate superintendent Rick Schmitt said the district decided to make it mandatory. The class goes beyond the minimal driver education programs by offering in-depth lessons on accident avoidance, distracted driving, drunk driving and basic road responsibilities. CHP Officer Eric Newbury began by listing what

teens worldwide said were their top distractions. Among the usual assortment of driving diversions – eating, boisterous conversation, music, texting – was this: having sex in the car. “You can’t tell me that’s not a distraction,” observed Newbury dryly, to awkward laughter from the teens and embarrassed groans from the adults. Thus were we warmed up for an entertaining morning. Subsequent slides with disturbing statistics punctured our brief interlude with frivolity. The charts and graphs showing how teenagers have more crashes, many lethal, than any other age group, were sobering. Perhaps the most heartbreaking video was the story of a teenage boy whose girlfriend was driving when she became distracted by a friend in the back seat and hit a tree head-on, killing her boyfriend instantly. No drugs or alcohol were involved. This was a sober driver who was exceeding the speed limit, became distracted, crashed the car, and killed someone she loved. Listening to the driver speak about how she could have avoided the catastrophe that killed her boyfriend and changed her life forever, was agonizing. How does one recover from that? How many years of therapy does it take to get past the horrific finality of causing a preventable death? DriveCam Several of the videos shown were taken from DriveCam, a camera mounted inside the car that is activated by sudden, erratic movements. “The impact of the DriveCam video-based driving feedback program has been repeatedly measured by independent traffic safety researchers and shown to have an immediate, dramatic and lasting change,” said Bill Carpenter, head of the consumer division of the San Diego-based company. DriveCam [www.drivecam.com], which costs about $500 including installation, records only those incidents triggered by a driver’s abrupt or risky driving patterns or movements. It is not spying or surveillance, Carpenter said. Rather, it provides a “report card” of sorts that gives parents instant feedback of their young driver’s behindthe-wheel progress and missteps. Advocates say teens are motivated not to set off DriveCam and drive more cautiously as a result. “As a parent we want to hand over the keys – and

wish we had a magic wand that would put us back into the passenger seat for just those few precious coachable moments. Now we do,” Carpenter said. “You wouldn’t put a baby in a car anymore without a car seat, and parents need to use the same safety precautions when putting their ‘babies’ behind the wheel,” said Del Mar resident Debbie Mark who called DriveCam “the car seat for teens.” Experts agree that speeding, inattention, peer pressure, alcohol and particularly inexperience contribute to the dangers associated with young drivers. According to “Crash Facts” from the Centers for Disease Control, teen drivers are four times likelier to crash than older drivers, nearly two-thirds of teen crash deaths happen when a new driver has one or more teen passengers, and night-time fatal crash rates for 16-year-olds are nearly twice as high as daytime rates. [We learned that the term “car accident” is a misnomer – collisions are almost always avoidable and are not “accidents.”] A 2009 American Automobile Association study found that the majority of people killed in teen crashes are passengers and other drivers, not teen drivers. According to the Calif. Dept. of Motor Vehicles, traffic crashes are the leading cause of death for teenagers across the country. For both sexes, drivers ages 16 to 19 have the highest average annual crash and traffic violation rates of any other age group – nearly three times higher. Driving with passengers increases the fatality risk more than three times for teen drivers, and the relative risk of a fatal crash increases as the number of passengers increases. The DMV lists these major concerns for young drivers who have yet to acquire the experience and ability to make clear judgments: •poor hazard detection •underestimating crash risks •overestimating their ability to avoid threats •risk-taking due to overconfidence •not wearing seat belts •no mastery of basic vehicle handling skills •alcohol or drug impairment •distractions from passengers •night-time driving Baby rattlesnakes Calling his teenage audience “baby rattlesnakes,”

which are considered by many to be more dangerous than adult snakes because they are more likely to deliver a full, uncontrolled dose of venom with minimal provocation, Newbury interspersed the comic with the tragic. Much of his presentation consisted of tips and advice, especially this: “Stupid is out there – look out for Stupid around every corner.” And advice for the boys: “You will show off for girls and do idiotic things with moving vehicles. It’s testosterone. It’s part of your make-up. Resist the temptation!” This was punctuated by Newbury’s personal anecdotes, tales of his own antics as a youngster doing dim-witted stunts in his vehicle, for which he not-so-proudly displayed the scars to prove it. Drivers can expect to be ticketed when violating traffic laws, Newbury said, because taxpayers pay him to do just that – that is, remove bad drivers from the road and minimize the harm they can cause others. There was no more gutwrenching moment than hearing Newbury speak of having to tell parents their child died in a car crash. Burying a child is a catastrophe unimaginable, he said. To paraphrase: “You don’t know what love is until you’ve had a child. You may think you love your girlfriend or boyfriend, you love your parents and siblings, you love your dog, and you love your wife. I love my wife dearly. But there’s something that kicks in when you have a child of your own. You’ll do anything – anything – for that little bundle of baby. It’s a part of you. To have to tell a parent at 2 a.m. that their son or daughter is never coming home again, it’s brutal. Children bury their parents, not the other way around.” To drive home the point (no pun intended), Newbury showed us pictures of his father Frank who was killed in a collision when Frank was 24 and Eric was 3. “Meet my dad,” he said, showing us a photo of Frank as a young man – happy, smiling, full of life. He was killed by a motorist who ran a stop sign, depriving Eric’s mother of a husband and Eric of a father who was missing for all the proud moments in Eric’s life that give every father immeasurable joy. Start Smart is a partnership of the California Highway Patrol, the San Diego County Sheriffs Department and the San Dieguito Alliance for Drug-Free Youth. Registration for classes, which are open to all students and parents, are held periodically throughout the school year at all San Dieguito high schools and can be found on each high school Web site.

Anxiety is never funnier than when ‘Mistakes Were Made’

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY DIANA SAENGER One man’s obsession for staging a show about The French Revolution soon turns into a frenzied mania that just might be his undoing in “Mistakes Were Made,” having its West Coast premiere at Cygnet Theatre through Oct. 21. Under the direction of Shana Wride, San Diegobased actor Phil Johnson tackles Craig Wright’s zany script. It’s a challenge, but Johnson has the skills to pull it off. His credits include Broadway’s “Les Miserables,” touring productions of “Les Miz” and “Miss Saigon,” “Putnam County Spelling Bee,” “Don’t Dress for Dinner,” and many more. His work as a standup comedian, roles in films and TV, as well as his experience in writing, producing and heading comedy shows all across the country (including his original solo plays, like “Say Cheese”),

If you go What: “Mistakes Were Made” When: Matinees, evenings through Oct. 21 Where: Cygnet Theatre, 4040 Twiggs St. in Old Town Tickets: $29-$54 Box Office: (619) 3371525 Website: cygnettheatre.com

have earned Johnson awards and recognition. All of which have helped him identify with this character. “Felix isn’t very far from me,” Johnson said. “I think every performer ends up chasing after things. Because acting is a weird life, you end up approaching things as a little bit of your own personal salesman. “This play is a funny look at obsession from an American point of view, and how far some will go to get that one thing they really want.” Because Felix is having

difficulty in getting what he wants, he goes out on a limb and is in danger of falling. “He’s a theater producer so how big a consequence can he get into?” Johnson said. “But Felix gets into big trouble when he becomes so desperate he attempts to raise money overseas.” Getting in over one’s head and reaching desperate measures is something today’s audiences can relate to. “Exactly. Felix is very much a person of today,” Johnson said. “We’re all on smart phones and finding ways to jam more work into every crevice of our lives. It’s a tough thing to look at your own life and ask, ‘when is it really enough?’ Felix works hard and makes work the absolute ultimate of his life to the detriment of everything else around him.” Misguided ambition has dire consequences as Felix eventually discovers.

But can he rebound? “The story gets complicated, but everything Felix does, he feels justified in doing,” Johnson said. “He ends up losing everything that’s important to him, including his family.” A lot of humor and a character with a good heart is what Johnson found intriguing about this story. “Because it’s based on a theatrical production, it has very funny elements to laugh at like actors, producers, movie stars, and divas. “I think Felix is smart and essentially a sweet guy. He’s not doing this for the money. He’s doing it for his self-respect and for something he wants very badly – to have a play on Broadway. “The story is not cliché at all. Felix is his own creation; a smart New Yorkertype, who is also a feeling and caring fellow, and that’s what gets him into trouble sometimes. But we care for him, too, and when he falls, we fall with him.”

Monday, Oct. 8: 6:30-8 p.m.

Friday, October 5, 7:30 p.m.

Every summer the California surfing community enjoys the arrival of a long regular swell from the southwest. The origin of the swell is in the winter storms of the southern hemisphere, some in the Indian Ocean, halfway around the Earth. Join internationally renowned Scripps professor Walter Munk to learn how World War II and measurements of Guadalupe Island led to this discovery and what it means for surfers today.

Acoustic Evenings with Jefferson Jay have returned to the Athenaeum. Local San Diego legends will open the series. Jack Tempchin has co-written five multiplatinum hits for the Eagles, Hugh Gaskins will perform a bluesrock fusion on acoustic guitar, acoustic bottleneck slide, harmonica, and electric lead guitar, and Jeffrey Joe Morin will share his exemplary guitar and harmonica skills.

The Ceviche contains citrus-marinated shrimp with chopped tomato, cilantro, onion, cucumbers, avocado and serrano chili.

Casa de Bandini serves Mexican favorites as a feast for the senses BY KELLEY CARLSON trip to Casa de Bandini is like taking a vacation to Mexico — but without leaving your hometown. Previously located in Old Town, on the former homestead of Juan Bandini — a prominent San Diegan in the 1800s — the 32-year-old restaurant settled in at its current home in The Forum Carlsbad three years ago. Despite the move, “we brought the essence of Old Town to North County,” General Manager Gilbert Gastelum said. Much of the decor transferred with Casa de Bandini, including the bubbling, three-tiered fountain at the front of the establishment. Once guests walk through the front doors, they can detect the aromas of soft tortillas being freshly prepared at a station between the cantina and dining room. To the left of the entrance is the cantina, where customers can sit at high- or low-top tables, celebrate happy hour five nights a week, and watch sports on two TVs. The mirrored back bar displays wines and more than 30 tequilas, including Clase Azul — a brand that’s difficult to find in a restaurant. According to Gastelum, Casa de Bandini is one of only 10 restaurants in the country to offer it. The bar itself is fashioned of copper, with carved wooden rope detailing and moldings, and accented with oversized iron nails. Dangling from the ceiling are chandeliers in shapes such as stars, teardrops and globes. Against one of the walls is a large, 250-year-

Directly beyond the entrance is the orange-and-rust-hued dining room with hand-painted stenciling. One of the walls showcases ornate gold-leaf Peruvian mirrors. The room feels spacious, as it has an openbeam ceiling and plenty of windows. Handpolished wooden tables and chairs featuring colorful Oaxacan/Zapotec weavings dot the Saltillo tile floor. Next to the dining room is the Sala de Santos (“Saints Room”), often the site of parties. It’s decorated with figurines and artifacts of saints and cultural folk art from Central American countries, canvas oil paintings of archangels Gabriel and Michael, and an ornate altar of the Virgin of Guadalupe. In the patio, guests can drink and dine among succulents, cacti, Mexican arid agaves and exotic tropical plants. Pink

bougainvillea frame the doorways, and bees and hummingbirds are frequent visitors of the fountains. Yellow-and-orange umbrellas provide shade over the black metal-framed tables, and heaters are nearby if it’s chilly. At night, strings of multicolored lights overhead add to the festivity. The energetic Cielito Lindo mariachi group performs 6-9 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays. Tinku serenades guests 6-9 p.m. Mondays and Tuesdays, and also performs its Andean rhythms and Latin American favorites from noon to 4 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. While evenings are lively, the daytime is more reserved and calm. The main menu is filled with more than 80 selections, including vegetarian, healthy and gluten-free options. Breakfast primarily consists of egg dishes. Among them are the Huevos Rancheros a la Bandini — fried eggs and corn tortillas with salsa española cheese, and grilled marinated top sirloin — and the Avocado Omelette Español with green chilies.

Local group dines in to dish out their dollars to charity

BY CLAIRE HARLIN What started as an idea over dinner at the South Carolina home of Marsha Wallace in 2003, has turned into a global initiative with more than 250 chapters across the nation. The idea is simple: members of Dining for Women chapters meet periodically to enjoy a potluck meal together, and they donate the amount of money they would have paid at a restaurant to the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s featured program for that month. Solana Beach resident Debbie Hirsch attended a meeting with a friend in San Jose, and thought the concept was so great that she pitched it to some friends and began a Solana Beach chapter (open to all North County residents). The Solana Beach Dining for Women meetings always takes place over brunch, from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturdays, at the Park Del Mar Clubhouse, located at 645 E. Solana Cir, Solana Beach, 92075. The next meeting is scheduled for Oct. 6. Hirsch said she works for a university in Santa Clara thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s committed to social justice, so starting the

Hirsch said. According the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national website, www.diningforwomen.org, the group has

more than 8,000 members, and hundreds of thousands of women from more than 30 countries have benefitted from the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s donations. The group, so far, has raised more than $1.5 million. Solana Beachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dining for Women always welcomes new members, and those interested can contact hirschdl@aol.com.

She also said she has a personal commitment to helping empower women and children living in extreme poverty. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what Dining for Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programs do. This monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s featured program, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Health In Harmony,â&#x20AC;? gives Indonesian women the opportunity to purchase two goats, and repayment is the first kid goat and two bags of manure to be used in organic farms.

At the brunch meetings, the group receives status reports on prior donations so they can track how their money is being put to use. There is also a lot of social time and in-depth discussion on the featured program. Hirsch said many times one of the women has

Musician/presenter Jay hosts the 7:30 p.m. shows to advance the Athenaeum’s commitment to supporting San Diego talent. 1) Friday, Oct. 5: Local legends Jack Tempchin, Hugh Gaskins, and Jeffrey Joe Morin kick-off the series. Tempchin has co-written five multi-platinum hits for the Eagles — “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” “Already Gone,” “The Girl from Yesterday,” “Somebody,” and “It’s Your World Now.” His songs have been used in films like “Thelma & Louise” and “The Big Lebowski,” and have been performed or recorded by George Jones, Emmylou Harris, Dwight Yoakam, Glen Campbell, Chris Hillman, Jackson Browne, the Paladins, Tanya Tucker, Kate Wolf, Tom Rush, Richie Havens and Jim James, among others.

His style is a fusion of blues with rockabilly and mountain music influences thrown in, along with a return to early influences such as gospel, Elvis, John Lee Hooker, Robert Johnson, and Big Joe Williams. Morin’s guitar and harmonica skills, along with his never-ending knowledge of standards, have resulted in stage sharing with some of the best musicians

in San Diego. “He is a wonderful one-man act, sending speckles of stardust into the universe with every heartfelt song,” according to critics. 2) Friday, Oct. 19: The night features return visits by Bart Mendoza and Chris Zach, and new to the series, Cory Wilkins. Mendoza is native San Diegan. He spent the 1980s as frontman for mod rockers Manual Scan, the ‘90s with power-poppers, The Shambles, and currently performs with True Stories. Mendoza has penned songs for dozens of artists worldwide. His song “Survive,” co-written with Danish producer/musician Jeppe Riddervold, won the 2003 EMI Publishing Award in Berlin. Singer/songwriter/guitarist Wilkins has a soulful voice and a guitar style drawn from his blues and rock roots. Blind since birth, he has pursued music since age 14. Wilkins has independently released four CDs, most recently, “San Diego Summer” and “Turn Up The Band.” As the lead singer for the band For The Faint, Zach displays energy and a message he is not afraid to

talk about. His music, his attitude, and his faith are what makes For The Faint a must-see band. 3) Friday, Nov. 2: Performers Nancy Truesdail, Will Edwards, and Regina Leonard to the library. Truesdail will perform the music of her late husband Don Truesdail, who developed four concept albums: “Dasvidanya Bingoland ... Hello Nancy!” “Enervator,” “Schmooze Tales” and “Adaptations Arcana Americana-Resetting Forgotten Gems.” Born in Zimbabwe and raised across America, Edwards “embodies the traveling troubadour.” His music is grounded in the traditions of American folk, rock, jazz, blues and roots music, but expands to include contemporary instrumentation and subject matter such as isolation, family ties, hope, and faith. Leonard is an L.A.based singer/songwriter with roots in soul and folk music. Whether playing with a band or just her guitar, she has captivated audiences all over southern California and the Southeast.

Rancho Santa Fe Review

Glennâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Film Review/ Commentary

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

BY GLENN PALMEDO-SMITH The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Masterâ&#x20AC;? is not what you might think. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even meet the Master until the second act. What we get is a study of the human mind: The sexually driven Id, i.e, troubled Freddie Quell (portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix), and bloated Ego: pompous Lancaster Dodd, (Philip Seymour Hoffman). Wife, Peggy Dodd (portrayed by Amy Adams), provides the adult observer who must tolerate and identify this combination of man-child as one. The closing jail scene of these two characters split by a common wall, a la falx cerebri, (separating the brainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two hemispheres), says it all; perhaps a conflict within all of us. In the end, Dodd is frustrated by Freddie, as he seems the only person in the room who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need a Master to lead the way. Thus, Hoffmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance, as always, gives ultimate meaning to the film. Observing the always awkward Phoenix grows thin after Glenn Palmedo-Smith more than two hours of film. This film is not for everyone. Children need not apply. There is much nudity. It is therefore mandatory the viewer have at least Psychology 101 under the belt to possibly have a hint of what this film is, or might be, about. The best way to prepare for this experience is to assume the film reflects an existential Master, say, Ron L. Hubbard, who might be starting a cult, say Scientology. Here, we have pastlife regressions, mixed with metaphysical psychologies, with Freddie as Doddâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guinea pig. Dodd has many followers. Feral-laden Freddie suffers post traumatic stress disorder from WWII. The hand-held flashback scenes of the Pacific War are great and I wish there were more for much-needed back-story. In this performance, Joaquin Phoenix gives 100 percent. The actorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s use of body language, especially the insecure and vulnerable Barney Fife reversal of hands above slouched hips, with rounded shoulders, is brilliant. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun to watch. Here, the actor unzips his torso and willingly letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s us see within, his emotional and physical scars â&#x20AC;&#x201D; prenatal included. The filmmakers must have anticipated Phoenixâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s troubled performance delivery, as they explain this condition with scenes of his character mixing liquid libations of chemicals more often found in a hardware paint departments. This movie is 45 minutes too long. However, knowing the Academyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s propensity to elevate heady films of this ilk, (I suppose in an effort to misdirect the public from the 90 percent profitable crap), this film assures to be an Oscar favorite. If you enjoy being among the first to sponsor such a phenomenon, then this is â&#x20AC;&#x153;must seeâ&#x20AC;? filmmaking. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re primarily an eye-roller of the esoteric and sublime, save your money. Nonetheless, this remains a fun E-Ticket ride for the money. Glenn Palmedo-Smith is a film director, producer and writer. He recently received three Emmys for his Korean war film â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hold At All Costs,â&#x20AC;? and he has received many national â&#x20AC;&#x153;Best of Festsâ&#x20AC;? awards for his other works. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to share comments with the writer, email him at DiniFilms@yahoo.com

Marriage and Relationships Politics and Marriage: Part II Dear Dr. Diana, I read your recent column about political differences in a couple. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m writing because our problem is similar but different enough that I wanted to write you and ask about it. When my husband and I first met, we believed strongly in Dr. Diana Weissall things important to Wisdom us. It was one of our bonds. We continue to be passionate and committed in our political views. However, as the years have gone by, a divide has grown in our politics and we no longer see things the same way. The political divide has widened between us to the point where I am concerned that it is affecting our relationship. As much as we mutually donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want it to, our friendship and respect for one another is taking a beating. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect to change his views and I know for certain that he is not going to change mine. Is there any hope for us or does this mean that we are seriously growing apart. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Gloomy on my marriage Dear Gloomy, When you write, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know for certain that he is not going to change my viewâ&#x20AC;? it makes me think that you are hanging on to your political views and needing to be right, for dear life. Your husband may be doing the same thing. When people do that their minds close up. There are many times in history where one political party adopted ideologies that were associated with the other political party. And then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an ideology specific to one party anymore. Maybe this accounts in part for the growing number of people who are registering as independents. But the fact is that everyone should keep an open mind.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unrealistic for any of us to have all the answers. Years ago, I saw a couple who were in a similar situation, so instead of letting their political differences ruin their marriage, it became an opportunity to learn how to more compassionately communicate with each other. They did it by role-playing. The Democrat would role-play the Republican position and would argue for it as if they were in a high school debate. The ultimate goal of the game was to win the debate arguing the other personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position. By turning it into a game, taking the other personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side and arguing it, they developed a deeper understanding of one anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s points of view. Each person took time to research the other personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perspective so they could argue it better. This helped them to calm down and have more empathy for each other. They realized that in their own way, they were both interested in the common good. They just saw different paths for getting there. Going forward, whenever they ran into a serious political difference that started to pull them apart, they agreed to go back to the debate game. We established the following rules to help the game be effective: 1) No name calling; 2) No disparaging of the other person; 3) No hidden agenda â&#x20AC;&#x201C; each person must stay true to the objective of the game. In other words, each player must sincerely argue the political ideology of their partner through out the game, even if they personally do not agree with it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural for couples to disagree, but it neednâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ruin a marriage. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only natural to want our current beliefs to be widely accepted, but when the coveted goal is to be right all the time, our relationships suffer. The major take away is that couples shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect to have the same views on everything. What makes a strong lasting marriage isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t whether the other person

La Jolla Art and Wine Festival fundraiser moves to the Village this year BY ASHLEY MACKIN The La Jolla Art & Wine Festival (LJAWF), a benefit for the town’s public schools, is back for its fourth year, Oct. 13-14, with organizers promising that the event will be bigger and better than ever. For the first time, admission to the 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. festival will be free, thanks to a $40,000 investment from Wells Fargo Bank (although a $5 donation will be accepted at the entrances). And also for the first time, organizers have partnered with the La Jolla Village Merchants Association to move the event into the Village, on Girard Avenue between Prospect and Kline Streets. Muirlands Middle School joins the list of beneficiaries in 2012, which includes La Jolla, Bird Rock and Torrey Pines Elementary schools. Funds raised from LJAWF will be used for art, music, science, physical education and technology programs, as well as onsite medical care at the schools. In addition to the 150 juried-artists who will be showing and selling their wares, the festival will feature wines and beers to sample, a silent auction, and lots of live, local entertainment.

If you go What: La Jolla Art & Wine Festival When: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, Sunday Oct. 14 Where: Area of Prospect and Kline Streets on Girard Avenue The range of kids’ activities includes painting a car donated by Witt Lincoln, art and dance classes, games, chalk art, crafts, edible art, cartooning and a family scavenger hunt. Organizers expect more than 30,000 people to attend the festival over the two days. Sheila Fortune, executive director of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association, said the merchants are “extremely excited” about their partnership with LJAWF. “We applaud the festival’s strong commitment to our community, the schools it supports, as well as its desire to bring in more business to the merchants, which is something aligned with our own goals.” LJAWF Founder Sherry Ahern added, “The La Jolla Art & Wine Festival’s partnership with the La Jolla Village

Merchants Association has created this amazing symbiotic relationship in the community. It’s evident that the festival has fostered a new connection between the [over] 6,000 parents and [over] 3,000 local students with the local businesses. I’ve never felt such camaraderie for such an amazing, worthwhile cause. Now in our fourth year, it’s truly incredible how far this event has come.” Ahern explained that each of the schools gives $30,000 in seed money for the festival, and “LJAWF then takes the money in August, and at the end of October, we pay our bills and give the schools back their $30,000 and whatever else extra net profit we’ve made. “We would love to make $220,000 this year. $120,000 would pay back the schools’ seed money, the other $100,000 would give each of the four schools $25,000.” Nancy Warwick, owner of Warwick’s Book and Gift Shop, said she sees the festival as “good for local businesses and the community at large.” “The festival will bring in people from all over San Diego,” Warwick said. “The actual event, as well as the

Festival Art Classes The Athenaeum will host art classes for ages 7-12 in three sessions: 10 a.m. to noon, 12:30-2:30 p.m. and 3-5 p.m. at 1008 Wall St. • Oct. 13: Ellen Schumacher with Creative Collages • Oct. 14: Christina Snell with Kids Mask Making • Cost: $25/$30 per session • Register: (858) 4545872, ljathenaeum.org promotion leading up to the event, is wonderful exposure for La Jolla’s business community.” Warwick’s, which has been at its Girard Avenue location since 1937, donated a $250 gift card to the festival auction. “La Jolla has been known as a center for art and culture since the turn of the last century,” Warwick said. “The festival reflects our community spirit, passion and identity — past and present.” As to why people should attend the festival,

Ask the Plastic Surgeons Q. I’m interested in receiving rejuvenating injectable procedures to enhance my appearance, but I’m concerned about bruising. Can you explain how I can alleviate and/or diminish this condition? A. In our practice, we make a point to advise our patients to take precautions to avoid bruising by ensuring the injectable products yield the desired results without the side effects commonly associated with these procedures. This entails discussing the procedure thoroughly with your physician in advance of the procedure to achieve maximum results. Since the areas are generally very vascularized, bruising can occur if the injection passes through blood vessels, which can then cause blood to leak into surrounding areas. We recommend that 10 days prior to your injectable procedure, avoid aspirin, Advil, Aleve, Motrin and ibuprofen. These over-the-counter pain medications can thin the blood and cause bruising. If you have a headache, we recommend taking Tylenol (acetaminophen). It’s most important to note that to alleviate the bruising condition you must choose a physician that engages a trusted and experienced injector. In addition, to avoiding the above mentioned over-thecounter drugs, you should also abstain from particular prescription medications, such as Coumadin, Heparin and Persantine (but avoid stopping these medications without permission from your prescribing physician), elevate your head while sleeping after receiving injections and use ice before, during and after your injections. Finally, if you have a significant event coming up on your schedule, make sure your injections are at least two weeks ahead of time to allow for sufficient recovery. Some supplements also help to prevent bruising, such as arnica and bromelian. Alternatively, there are supplements that in-

Your Family Matters: ‘Kid-Bumps’

Wendell Smoot, MD, Reza Sadrian, MD, Carol Hollan, MD and John Smoot, MD crease bruising and should be avoided prior to any injectable procedure, such as gingko biloba, ginseng, omega-3, St. John’s Wort and Vitamin E. Green tea has also been proven to increase the propensity for bruising, so we recommend switching to another beverage ten days prior to your procedure. And 24 hours before you receive treatment, avoid any use of alcohol. We take extra precautions in our practice to ensure that all physicians and nurses assigned to injectable procedures are certified to conduct these functions to the highest medical protocols and strongly recommend ensuring your physician of choice adheres to similar standards. John Smoot, MD, is Chief of Plastic Surgery at Scripps Memorial Hospital-La Jolla and Wendell Smoot, MD, has been voted by his peers as Top Doctor in San Diego for five consecutive years. Carol Hollan, MD, is San Diego’s first female board-certified plastic surgeon while Reza Sadrian, MD, is one of very few plastic surgeons dually certified in plastic and reconstructive surgery as well as oral and maxillofacial surgery. The practice has over 20 years of tenure in the industry and each is individually board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

OPEN HOUSE

BY DR. KEITH KANNER If it weren’t for “Kid-Bumps” we would all be in trouble, and perhaps parents, in general, would not be needed, but we all know that leaving our kids alone for too long is likely going to lead Dr. Keith Kanner to trouble and here is why. A “Kid-Bump” is when your child does something so outrageous that you, as their parent, are “forced” to finally set that limit to prevent the behavior from continuing. Call it the “straw that broke the Camel’s back,” Kid-Bumps are motivators to parents to get involved and prevent your child from doing anything else that might lead to negative consequences. But, it is important that the parent be able to identify the bump or even know that a bump exists. All kids have bumps. They are suppose to. Kid-Bumps are so important that if they did not exist — and then stopped — children would not develop into high-functioning, successful individuals. Take breast feeding. The single greatest event which finally helps a breast feeding mother to wean her child onto a bottle is getting bit on the nipple just once by a teething infant. The “intense” pain involved in this “Kid-Bump” motivates the mother to push her child into one of the first experiences of independent functioning – bottle feeding – which begins with the parent holding (often at a safe dis-

tance from their breast) the bottle, and then eventually teaching the child to hold it his or herself, which then leads to a wonderful feeling of self-control for the child. This is a win/win for the parent and then child. I think the first “Kid-Bump” is likely when a child does not sleep through the night and cries and screams, keeping up new parents. Sleep deprivation for new parents can be overwhelming and often make the couple ask the ultimate parent question: “Why did we have kids again?” The good news about “Kid-Bumps” is that there are correct answers on how to solve the problem in question — until the next “Kid-Bump” inevitably comes along. We have learned to accept potholes when we drive, so why not accept “Kid-Bumps” as normal and fixable. Toilet training is another “Kid-Bump.” Usually, something happens that finally makes the parent take away their child’s diaper or pull up and force the child to actually use a toilet. It could be that the child is teased for having a diaper beyond the age of 2 or 3; the child using their extra baggage for attention — or they have to leave for college! Enough already, take off the diapers and really see if they will urinate on the floor before the toilet. If they do, take away something until they do and they will likely pick the toilet over their bed. These movements ( pun intended ) are red flags to the parent of “help me.” When you do, you help your child move ahead developmentally and they are happier and healthier and they can never blame you for letting them

The Investigator

Kidnapping This column, which is written by investigator RW “Pete” Peterson discusses issues and cases related to investigations and investigative services, and appears about once a month in this newspaper.

BY RW “PETE” PETERSON Kidnapping is very prevalent in many other countries but, fortunately, it is in decline in the United States thanks to improved security and tracking counter measures. In one particular case, we provided security and oversight to a major client. Primarily we performed “due diligence” and background for his investments, partnerships, etc. RW “Pete” Our client had recently had two Peterson high profile business successes. We had counseled him and the family on awareness and the importance of altering their travel routes, etc. We also provided physical security when they attended high profile events. One day we were conferring with the client at his residence when his wife came in looking somewhat distraught. She explained that she thought she may be being paranoid, but she thought that she might have been followed when picking up the children at their elementary school. She believed she had seen the same green pickup truck behind her several times during the trip. The next day we installed hidden video in the rear of her vehicle and performed counter surveillance on the way to school. The subjects did not appear until she had dropped the kids and was leaving the school. They followed her to the dentist’s office where she had an appointment, then broke off their surveillance. We did not see them until two days later when they followed her from the school back to the residence. We had run their plate and knew who the driver was, and had been able to identify the passenger through some research of his friends. They both had misdemeanor criminal records, but nothing close to what we feared they could be contemplating now. We talked to local law enforcement but, of course, there was nothing they could do at this point. By this time we had two extra people monitoring the residence and had supplied the entire family with small, covert GPS tracking units. The kids weren’t told what they were because we didn’t want to concern them. We had alerted the school administration to our concerns. We also instituted some counter measures that I won’t divulge here because they are “tricks of the trade” and somewhat sensitive. We then located their temporary residence which was on a family friends’ boat in Marina Del Rey. They had no means of support and spent most of their time with a couple of girls drinking beer and smoking dope. By this time we knew their entire histories, circle of friends, family, etc. We had been able to listen in on several conversations in which they were bragging about possibly “coming into some money.” They did not follow the wife for the next three days, but they had been within several blocks of the residence

four times. At this point we conferred with the client and everyone was very concerned. I don’t believe that I had slept more than three hours in the last two days. To be candid, I was sleep deprived and in a state of extreme anxiety. How could I live with myself if something happened to the family? The client and his wife were holding up well, considering. We informed the client that we were contemplating something more pro-active but didn’t think he needed to know the details. We were trying to cover all of the angles. We had determined where the driver was from in South Dakota and that the passenger was from San Diego and we had notified associates in those areas to be ready if we contacted them. We decided to act. The following day we saw them taking the boat out by themselves. We bought a 12- pack of beer and rented a small boat. We were able to pull up next to them when they were near the shore with fishing poles out. We came along side them, asked how their fish-

ing was going and offered them some free beer. Before they could object we got on the swim step and boarded their boat. We then asked them to sit down and proceeded to inform them that we knew everything about them and that we thought we knew what they were up to with regard to our client. We told them that we would be tracking their every move going forward and if they were within 5 miles of our client or any member of his family there would be serious consequences. They said nothing and looked fairly shaken as we left. We monitored them for the next week until we confirmed that one was back in South Dakota and the other had moved to Palm Springs. Years later we still know where they are and what they’re doing. One has been in jail on theft charges and the other apparently found religion and is married with a small child.

Local mom ready to head back to the stage for San Diego Musical Theater’s production of ‘Footloose’ BY KAREN BILLING Local mom Debra Wanger is taking the stage in San Diego Musical Theatre’s “Footloose,” running Sept. 28 through Oct. 14 at the Birch North Park Theatre. Wanger, a mother of three, stars as mom Ethel in the nostalgic ’80s show. Debra Wanger “The adults all remember the movie but to the kids it’s kind of a period piece,” jokes Wanger. Wanger started in theater at age 9 and has been performing in shows on and off ever since. She worked as a singer and actress in shows at the Welk Resort Theatre, La Jolla Stage, San Diego Repertory Theatre, and Mo’olelo Performing Arts Company before going on “baby hiatus” after the birth of her twins, now 7, and her 19-month-old daughter. She had always been impressed with SDMT shows and jumped at the opportunity to perform with the group, fitting time into her busy schedule to rehearse. It was hard work, but worth it to return to doing something she loves, something that “makes mommy happy.” “This will be the first time that my twins will see me on stage,” Wanger said, noting the Girl Scout troop and all the moms will be coming to the show. “The moms are excited because we all remember the movie. It was an important coming of age piece for all of us and we all had crushes on Kevin Bacon.” Wanger plays Ethel, mother of the

main character, the teenage Ren, who moves to a town where dancing and rock music have been banned. “It’s hysterical to me that I’ve moved on to playing the mom,” Wanger said. “She’s been through a tough road. Her husband left her and she’s raising her teen son by herself. She has to move to this podunk town with her sister and tries to keep her son out of trouble.” Wanger doesn’t have to do much of the “cut loose” dancing, but she does sing a song with the other moms when all the “athletic dancing and teenage energy stops for a minute.” Playing Ethel, she gets to act out a mother’s struggle and a bit of redemption. “Ethel goes through a journey herself. As her son finds his voice and the town goes through a transformation, she goes through a transformation as well,” Wanger said. “She learns to speak up for herself and helps to encourage Ren to keep the faith and stand up for himself, which in the past she wasn’t able to do.” Wanger said she is continually wowed by her young SDMT co-stars. “Vocally, it’s very demanding, a lot of tight harmonies, all while dancing,” said Wanger. “I’m grateful to be playing an adult.” Tickets for “Footloose” can be purchased online at sdmt.org or by calling (858) 560-5740. The Birch North Park Theatre is located at 2891 University Avenue, San Diego, 92104.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee

auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ofďŹ ce or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneďŹ ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (714) 573-1965 or visit this Internet Web site www. priorityposting.com, using the ďŹ le number assigned to this case 12-151011. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reďŹ&#x201A;ected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 6853 LA VALLE PLATEADA RANCHO SANTA FE, CALIFORNIA 92067 APN# 267020-26-00 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $4,360,546.75. The BeneďŹ ciary may elect to bid less than the full credit bid. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank speciďŹ ed in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ofďŹ ce or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneďŹ ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-5731965 for information regarding the trusteeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.priorityposting.com regarding the sale of this property,

using the ďŹ le number assigned to this case T.S. No. 20120064. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reďŹ&#x201A;ected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The mortgage loan servicer, beneďŹ ciary, or authorized agent has not obtained from the commissioner a ďŹ nal or temporary order of exemption pursuant to Section 2923.53.

But perhaps the hardest part about dealing with KidBumps is that the parent must be the parent and not a child afraid of the boogeyman. “They won’t like me anymore if I make them do that.” Wrong. They will hate you for letting them control you! You must sent limits and actually enforce them. Seriously, how many times have you seen a child, or a teenager for that matter, set their own limits successfully? Not often! You have

Accept it, don’t blow it, and have fun doing it. However, development does have a natural “healthy” sequence from infancy through adulthood with normal developmental achievements along the path. Those that stay on the healthy path lead happy lives. Those that either get stuck or never move ahead, remain unfulfilled and generally unhappy. So, KidBumps are signals sent from kids to adults saying, “Help me smooth out the journey to happiness.”
