BY KAREN BILLING At its Feb. 23 meeting, the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board heard public input from local residents about a new 10-home housing development in Carmel Valley. Called Lighthouse Ridge, the development is planned on a vacant lot at the end of Lighthouse Way in a neighborhood behind Congregation Beth Am — neighbors shared concerns about the impacts of building new homes on a “steep” slope above Chelterham Terrace. According to Matt Semic of Latitude 33 Planning and Engineering, the developers could potentially break ground on the homes

as soon as the end of the year. The project is in its second round of reviews with the city and developers hope to continue meeting with the neighbors and come back before the planning board in April for approval. The existing owner took ownership a year ago – before that, the property was owned by a trust. Residents said they anticipated homes being built on the western side of the lot, where it is more flat but the eastern side is a steep slope and they never guessed there could be houses there. Semic said the county is unfortunately SEE DEVELOPMENT, A17

Dave Roberts wants workers’ comp for stress, hand injury

BY JOSHUA STEWART Former San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts has filed workers’ compensation claims for psychological stress from a threatening incident, and for an overuse-injury to his right hand, wrist and arm and other body parts. In the first claim, the one-term board member said he suffers from psychological health issues from a run-in with a mentally-ill man who aggressively approached brandishing silverware. “A man in a white shirt came at me with a fork,” Roberts said in a statement to police after the Oct. 26, Dave Roberts 2013, incident. Records and past interviews with Roberts give no indication that the supervisor was touched by the man. Workers’ compensation is designed to assist people who become ill or are injured in the course of working for their employer. Roberts was headed to a Saturday political event when he was accosted by the man. “So in October of 2013 I had the attempted stabbing and we were concerned,” Roberts said in an interview with the Union-Tribune in May 2015. ”And that was a purely political event. That is why no staff was with me. I was the speaker at a political event, endorsing a candidate for statewide office.” Documents obtained through public records request show that the now-former supervisor signed forms SEE DAVE ROBERTS, A16

Torrey Hills board again recommends new Carmel Mountain Road configuration BY KAREN BILLING The Torrey Hills Community Planning Board is re-igniting its attempts to restripe the Carmel Mountain Road and El Camino Real intersection. The board first made a request to the city back in 2009 to add a second northbound turn lane onto Carmel Mountain Road. Currently traveling to Carmel Mountain Road from I-5, one lane turns right onto Carmel Mountain Road, one lane goes straight onto Carmel Creek Road and three lanes turn left onto El Camino Real. According to planning board member Guy Ravad, due to the current lane configuration, a line of cars gets stacked SEE INTERSECTION, A18

More NYT bestselling authors than ever at this year’s Writers’ Conference, says President of CCA Creative Writing Club BY LOIS ALTER MARK Don’t be surprised when you start to see more and more bestselling authors coming out of San Diego. Over the past five years, the CCA Writers’ Conference – the only free writers’ conference for high school students in the country – has continued to grow and encourage aspiring young writers, drawing in hundreds of teens from more than 20 area high schools and attracting top names in publishing. On Saturday, March 11, Canyon Crest Academy’s Creative Writing Club will present the sixth annual conference, and it looks to be the biggest one yet. Twenty-two authors will lead workshops in a variety of subjects from screenwriting to poetry to comics and graphic novels. Students will have the opportunity to participate in six different sessions with a choice of four workshops per session. The day will begin with a keynote address by Mary E. Pearson, author of several award-winning books for teens, including the bestselling Jenna Fox Chronicles. “The conference has gained recognition by both authors and publishers, and authors have actually started to reach out to us, requesting to speak, which is really great,” said Julia Camilleri, president of the CCA Creative Writing Club. “This year, we have the largest number of New York Times bestselling authors presenting, and attendance is soaring!” Camilleri, a senior at CCA, joined the Creative Writing Club during her freshman year, and took over after former president and conference founder, Devyn Krevat, graduated. “As a sophomore, Julia stepped into the role of president with poise and competence,” said Kathy Krevat, author of the bestselling Chocolate Covered Mystery series and conference consultant. “She balanced it all with a heavy academic workload and other extracurricular activities.” In fact, Camilleri not only founded an after-school writing club for middle school students but she also piloted a creative writing program for at-risk teens in partnership with Words Alive, a local nonprofit organization dedicated to literacy. In addition, she is working on her Gold Award, the highest award that can be achieved in Girl Scouts. Although all of these projects revolve around writing, Camilleri plans to pursue a pre-med course of study in college, with the goal of becoming a pediatrician. “Writing is a hobby and de-stressing activity that I enjoy on the side,” she explained. “It has and will continue to be a creative outlet for me and an important tool in my future endeavors.” Camilleri believes that any high school student considering a career in writing should take advantage of this conference. “It’s a great learning opportunity, and students even have the chance to meet a literary agent in a workshop about getting published,” she said. “Every author has a unique experience to share about the process of becoming successful. Plus, there’s something for everyone, whether you’re interested in journalism, creative writing, poetry, graphic novels – pretty much any

So many attendees said they ‘found their tribe’ at this conference.” According to Camilleri, fantasy, action and horror tend to be the most popular genres among attendees. Top workshops have been Grand World Building in Fantasy, Writing Great Action Scenes, and College Essay Writing, and all are back by popular demand. This year’s conference is bittersweet for Camilleri because it will be her last. “I love the excitement around the day, and the buzz you can feel during the whole event,” she said. “We start registration at 8 a.m. and there are always students turning up earlier because they’re so excited.” Camilleri remembers dozens of moments that stand out to her from past conferences. “One image that will always stay with me is of a student who had brought all his savings to the conference,” she said. “He was walking back to his car and his hands were piled high with 30 books he purchased and had signed by the authors at the conference. He looked so happy!” This year, Camilleri is looking forward to meeting keynote speaker Mary E. Pearson, whose book, The Adoration of Jenna Fox, will soon be heading to the big screen. She’s also excited about presenting an award to spoken word poet Viet Mai, who will close the conference with an inspirational performance. “Last year, we initiated a Jonathan Maberry Inspiring Teens Award to acknowledge the author’s support of the conference and all that he does to promote teen literacy in San Diego,” said Camilleri.

Padres Pedal the Cause Executive Director Anne Marbarger presented the check during a gathering of more than 100 beneficiary representatives, San Diego business leaders, as well as top donors and fundraisers. The award represents the total amount raised by the organization’s 2016 cycling event this past November. “This is the most important night of the year for Padres Pedal the Cause: the night we present San Diego’s four world-class cancer institutions with the financial contribution representing the sum of our annual community-wide efforts,” Marbarger said. “We are proud to present over $2 million, which we believe is just the start of many years of growth and scientific discovery that will define our community. With this momentum built in 2016, we approach 2017 with great optimism about what the San Diego community will do to rally behind curing cancer." The Padres Pedal the Cause event was founded in 2013 by Rancho Santa Fe resident Bill Koman and has grown year over year. Last year, ridership grew by 82

Most importantly, 2016 marked the achievement of the 100 percent model, which means that all money raised by the riders through fundraising was donated to cancer research. All expenses were underwritten through the generous support of corporate sponsors, including the Koman Family Foundation, BD, Sempra Energy, Wells Fargo and Qualcomm among many others. The fifth annual Padres Pedal the Cause

event takes place this year on Nov. 11-12 at Petco Park and will feature courses of various distances for all skill levels, a stationary bike zone, virtual riding and a children’s ride, as well as numerous volunteer opportunities for all those who want to make a difference in the fight against cancer. Registration for the 2017 event will open in early April. New for this year, Padres Pedal will be only the second cycling event to ride over the Coronado Bay Bridge.

Del Mar native overcomes hearing loss, receives scholarship to pursue medical career BY KAREN BILLING el Mar native Victoria Popov, 22, was recently awarded the Graeme Clark Scholarship from Cochlear Limited, the global leader in implantable hearing solutions. Born deaf, a whole new world opened up for Popov when she received cochlear implants at ages 8 and 17. The Canyon Crest Academy graduate is now a senior at the Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York, majoring in biomedical science with a minor in psychology. Popov said the scholarship represents an investment in her education as she aims to continue on and become an otolaryngologist (ENT), inspired to help others after her own experiences. Popov received her scholarship on Feb. 19 in Orlando, Fla., at the closing ceremonies of a four-day Cochlear Celebration, a convention attended by hundreds of cochlear recipients and their families and the four other winners of the Graeme Clark Scholarship. The scholarship is named after Dr. Graeme Clark, the inventor and

D

pioneer of the multichannel cochlear implant. “It is an honor to recognize these incredible young people who have demonstrated grit and tenacity in both their academic and personal lives while making the most of Cochlear’s hearing technology,” said Tony Manna, president of Cochlear North America. “As Cochlear implant recipients, these students are not only leaders in their communities today but will also be bright stars in the industry they choose to join tomorrow.” Popov was born completely deaf but as there was no screening at that time for babies, her parents didn’t know she was deaf until she was 18 months old. Popov said her parents were unsure about her hearing ability as sometimes she would respond to them and sometimes she wouldn’t—Popov said they later learned that when she did respond, she was likely responding to the vibrations of the sound. She spent years wearing hearing aids and getting by at school by lip reading but, at age 8, then a student at Del Mar Heights Elementary

School, she received her first cochlear implant. Cochlear implants are different from hearing aids, which only amplify sound. The implant consists of an external sound processor and an internal implant that is surgically placed underneath the skin, behind the ear. The implant is attached to an electrode inserted into the cochlea to help patients hear. When sound is captured by the sound processor behind the ear, the sound is converted to digital information which is transmitted to the internal implant, sending sound signals to the brain. “I was able to pick up on sounds more crisp and clear,” Popov said of the life-changing implant. “I was able to hear the birds chirping for the first time.” She received her second cochlear implant at age 17, to help with sound localization. “I didn’t realize what I was missing out on,” Popov said of life before the cochear implant. “I couldn’t tell if someone was speaking to me from behind. I did a lot of lip reading and the sounds I heard didn’t have the

Del Mar Hills technology teacher named finalist in prestigious Fellowship Award Kimber Johnston, STEAM+ technology specialist at Del Mar Hills Academy, has been named a finalist for the Computer-Using Educator’s (CUE) LeRoy Finkel “Big Idea” Fellowship. The fellowship is awarded each year to an educator who is integrating technology into standards-based education in innovative ways. Johnston submitted her “Big Idea” in the form of a one-minute YouTube video pitch to CUE. As a finalist, she will be awarded $500 to purchase materials necessary for implementing her ideas, and will receive complimentary registration to the National CUE Conference, the largest educational technology conference in California. While at the CUE Conference, Johnston and the five other finalists must present a 5-minute pitch for a scaled-up version of their big ideas. Panelists and conference

attendees will vote, and the LeRoy Finkel Fellow will be named during the closing keynote address on March 18. The Fellow will receive $2500 to purchase materials to enhance technology-integrated instruction and will work with a mentor from CUE throughout the upcoming year. Johnston’s “Big Idea” pitch involves integrating literature, art, music, and coding to allow students to interpret a novel, write their own narratives, select music and sound effects that complement those narratives, design characters and settings, and then use the Scratch coding environment to code a dynamic animation combining all of their design elements. Always ready to tackle something new, Johnston has already taken steps to implement her lesson ideas with sixth grade students and is excited to expand upon it.

Blood drive to be held at Fairmont Grand Del Mar March 10 A blood drive will be held on Friday, March 10, from 9:30 a.m. - 3 p.m. at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar in the parking lot (5300 Grand Del Mar Ct, San Diego, 92130).

His presentation will be “Fascinating Facts About Our Presidents.” The program will begin at 5 p.m. at the Community Center at Fletcher Cove in Solana Beach. Lederer is the author of more than 40 books about language, history and humor, including his best-selling Anguished English

series and his current books, “Amazing Words,” “Lederer on Language” and “Presidential Trivia.” Lederer’s column “Lederer on Language” appears weekly in The San Diego Union-Tribune, and he is a founding co-host of “A Way with Words” on KPBS Public Radio. He has been named International Punster of the Year and Toastmasters International’s Golden Gavel Award winner.

Community meeting March 7 on Skyline School reconstruction Thanks to voter approval, Measure JJ, the Solana Beach Schools GO Bond initiative, passed in November 2016. A number of school construction projects will begin in June 2017. One of those projects will be the complete reconstruction of Skyline Elementary School. The reconstruction of Skyline includes demolition of current

structures, grading, and rebuilding of classrooms, administration, parking, multipurpose room, and other elements of a comprehensive elementary school. Solar panels will be placed in parking lots, walkway canopies, and the lunch shelter. The reconstruction project will begin June 2017. The school will be ready for occupancy in Fall 2018.

These are exciting times in the district, which looks forward to providing students with greatly enhanced learning environments. Please attend a “Community Informational Meeting” which will provide more details about Skyline’s reconstruction. The meeting will be held Tuesday, March 7 at 5:30 p.m. in the Skyline Activity Center.

SeaWeeders Tip: Winter Color It’s easy to add bold color to brighten up your winter garden: Succulents: glowing Euphorbia “Sticks of Fire,” and the dramatic flowering yellow and orange towers of Aloes and Aeonium. Bushes and trees: Pyracantha with clusters of red berries, citrus with their bright yellow and orange fruit, and shade-loving fuchsias. Flowers: rainbow-colored Bird of Paradise, orange Clivia for

shady corners. And you can plant your red Christmas Poinsettia for continuing cheer. All of the these plants are sturdy, drought tolerant, and easy to grow. Remember, too, you can add color with containers, outdoor furnishings and paint or tiles on outside walls. — This tip is courtesy of the Seaweeders Garden Club of Solana Beach (www.seaweedersgardenclub.org)

Violence.” The author told of her experience as an abused woman for 18 years. Although she was college educated with a master’s degree she was not safe from domestic violence.

Donors sought for CCA Dollars for Scholars Program The 2017 CCA Dollars for Scholars Program needs help from generous donors in the community. Last year, 63 scholarships totaling $36,500 were awarded to CCA students who attended a wide variety of excellent colleges and universities. With such a talented and dedicated 2017 class, the CCA Dollars for Scholars program's goal is to always strive to increase the program's scholarship funding. While some scholarship funds are raised through sales of CCA student directories, graduation yard signs and graduation leis, the program relies, for the majority of scholarship funding, on the generous donations of CCA friends and the broader Carmel Valley, Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach, and Encinitas area’s businesses, civic groups and individuals.

Prep Boys Basketball

Scripps Health’s 45th Annual Mercy Ball set for March 11

CCA advances to CIF semifinals Four years ago, Ryan Michaels chose to attend Canyon Crest Academy over La Costa Canyon and Torrey Pines. Both schools he passed on have a collage of banners draped in their gyms that memorialize their illustrious histories as athletic powerhouses in San Diego County. Michaels says he chose CCA for its impressive academic reputation along with a chance to play for coach Brian Baum who he knew from club basketball. Baum was patiently building the CCA basketball program into something that could someday favorably compete with the more established programs in San Diego, and Michaels wanted to help Baum take CCA to the next level. In his first three years, CCA had intermittent success but Michaels distinguished himself as one of the best pure shooters in San Diego with a penchant for hitting big shots with the game on

On Saturday night CCA avenged last year’s first round playoff loss by outlasting a physical La Jolla team 71-53 to advance to the CIF Division 2 semi-finals. Michaels found his rhythm against La Jolla scoring a game high 25 points followed by Travis with 16 and Elsom with 10. The Ravens will host the Eagles of Orange Glen High School on Wednesday, March 1. The winner will advance to the CIF Division 2 finals which will take place on Saturday, March 4 at the Jenny Craig Arena at the University of San Diego. Michaels says his decision to attend CCA was a great one, and he hopes to wrap up his brilliant high school basketball career by bringing Canyon Crest their first CIF basketball title.

From the Del Mar Mayor

Crime in Del Mar

I

have two reasons for writing this article. First, Del Mar has always had a strong value of looking out for our neighbors. That is why we have such organizations as Del Mar Community Connections, Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT), and Neighborhood Watch. Also, one of my first responsibilities as a public official is to look out for the safety of our residents. Given our values (and my responsibilities), I am very concerned about crime in Del Mar. I have been watching the crime statistics for the San Diego Region put out by the Criminal Justice Research Division of SANDAG for the last 8 years. The latest report spans a time frame of 1980 to 2015 and was published in April 2016. The data clearly shows three important things are happening: a. Crime in Del Mar is unique and different from other areas of San Diego. b. The intensity of crime is too high for such a small city.

c. Del Mar’s crime is likely to go up, not down. Let me take each of these in order. First, crime in Del Mar is unique. Most people think of crime as homicide, rape and robbery. Del Mar has very few of these type of crimes, averaging 0 homicides, 2 rapes, and 2.3 robberies per year for the last 9 years. But what crime we do have is made up of assaults, burglaries and theft, averaging 12 assaults, 39 burglaries, and 124 thefts per year for the last 9 years. In 2015, Del Mar had 8 assaults, 47 burglaries, and 122 thefts. Burglaries, both residential and commercial, total 14.4 percent of the crime throughout the San Diego Region. The same burglaries are 25.1 percent of the crime in Del Mar. We experience an average of 3.9 burglaries per month. While Del Mar has few violent crimes, we lead the San Diego Region in non-violent crime per 1,000 in population. Del Mar ranks 11th out of 18 cities in San Diego County for

READERS WRITE Beating Cheating High schools all across the world are filled with cheating, from the lowest ranking schools to the most prestigious ones. San Diego is not exempt from cheating. Students copy homework, post answers to tests, and even share answers during the test. The teachers are not the problem, however. Many teachers are very serious on cheating and have a zero tolerance policy to it. Perhaps then, the solution is not in terrifying the students out of cheating, but to understand and fix the root cause of cheating, which is stress. Stress to do well, stress to succeed, and stress to be a good student drives students to cheat. Whether it is from the expectations of strict parents or whether it stems from meeting the requirements for a sport, students who feel as if they alone cannot SEE LETTER, A18

violent crime; with 2.36 violent crimes per 1,000 residents in 2015. Del Mar ranks 1st out of 18 cities in San Diego County for non-violent crime; with 41.53 non-violent crimes per 1,000 residents in 2015. The next highest number is La Mesa with 29.59 non-violent crimes in 2015. Del Mar’s numbers are twice the region’s average of 19.42 property crimes per 1,000 residents per year. These numbers can be explained, in part, by the number of visitors that come to the Fairgrounds and beaches throughout the year. But it also indicates that our residents and businesses are at increased odds of being victims of non-violent crime compared to residents in other regions of San Diego County. Residential burglary has ranged from a low of 11 (2010) to a high of 33 (2012). We are at 30 in 2015. Non-residential burglary has ranged from a low of 11 (2014) to a high of 21 (2021). We are at 17 in 2015. Theft in Del Mar has been at a low of 100 (2011) to a high of 144 (2012). We are at 122 in 2015. We experienced 30 residential burglaries in 2015. We experienced 17 non-residential burglaries. That is a total of 47. That is over 2 residential burglaries a month, and over one commercial burglary per month. The numbers are bad for such a small town.

And there are two things working to increase these numbers over time. First, the number of visitors attending events at the Fairgrounds will only increase as the population increases. The San Diego Region is adding 30,000 new residents per year. But also, we have not been able to drive these numbers down over time. We spend $2 million per year or 18 percent of our City’s General Fund on Sheriff services. We have not solved Del Mar’s non-violent crime problem. My real concern is that Del Mar is becoming an easy place for people to commit burglaries and theft. I will have some thoughts on ways we can drive down our crime rates in future articles to the Del Mar Times. This is also a time when the City Council and the community will be debating options for improving law enforcement in Del Mar. Terry Sinnott Del Mar Mayor – I have the privilege of serving as Del Mar’s Mayor for one year. – These comments are my own perspective and do not represent the consensus of the Council.

T

oo many school board members regard their elected positions as full-time careers and have served on school boards far longer than is reasonable. Term limits have been supported by citizens for many elected posts, including the president of the United States, state and federal office holders, and numerous county and city positions. Mark Powell, in a San Diego Union-Tribune op-ed last year, wrote that polling consistently shows support for term limits for elected officials. Yet it’s not done for school board members. Powell, who was just elected to the San Diego County Board of Education, wrote, “Serving as a school board member should not be a career” and that serving for decades can “lead to stagnation and a lack of fresh decision-making.” He said, “School boards thrive when new ideas are allowed to flourish” and that a school board works best “when people are allowed to infuse new ideas and come up with creative and innovative teaching strategies.” In this newspaper’s feature last August on the San Dieguito Union High School District candidates running for school board, incumbent Joyce Dalessandro is quoted as saying, “I love my job!” Dalessandro was just elected last November to her sixth term.

No one will deny that experience counts for something. But as Powell said, it’s not supposed to be a job or career. SDUHSD board member John Salazar agrees with Powell and supports the idea of term limits. Salazar, who was first elected in 2010 and re-elected in 2014, said in a March 3, 2016 San Diego Union-Tribune article, “It makes sense to get some turnover.” His proposal as envisioned would not apply to sitting trustees, only to future school board members. Dalessandro, who has served on the San Dieguito board since 1996, said in the same U-T story that she would not support term limits for school board members. “Term limits limit the choice the public has,” she is quoted as saying. “If you have a great board member, they then can get termed out. What is the intelligence there?” “It takes a long time to learn the in’s and out’s of a school district. It’s a very long learning process,” added Dalessandro, who if she finishes her term of office in 2020 will have served for 24 years as a San Dieguito trustee. Unjustly vilified That it’s a long learning process may be true. But almost all elected officials have a learning curve to get up to speed. No one walks in fully SEE SUTTON, A18

PAC Swim’s Rachel Yang, Cami Collins and Jonathan Cong with Head Coach Pete Murphy.

PAC Swim-Bay Club Carmel Valley captures three titles at Junior Olympics The little PAC Swim-Bay Club Carmel Valley swim team turned in big performances at the San Diego-Imperial Swimming Short Course Junior Olympics on Feb. 24-26 at the Poway Community Swim Center. Three PAC swimmers were individual high point winners at the meet, including Rachel Yang for 10 and under girls, Jonathan Cong for 10 and under boys, and Cami Collins for 13-14 girls. The Carmel Valley home team took home fifth place overall despite having only 27 swimmers compete. The three individual high point swimmers racked up points by winning several events at

the meet. Rachel won the 100-yard individual medley, 50-yard freestyle, 50-yard breaststroke and 100-yard freestyle; Jonathan won the 100-yard individual medley, the 50-yard butterfly and 100-yard freestyle; and Cami won the 50-yard butterfly and 100-yard freestyle. This coming August, PAC Swim hopes to send more qualified swimmers to the US Speedo Junior Nationals. Pete Murphy is the head coach for the PAC-Bay Club Carmel Valley swim team and, since joining the team in September 2013, he has helped the team become one of the most successful swim teams in San Diego.

FROM LAWSUITS, A1 “Schools should be a safe space for all students to learn and thrive regardless of their gender identity,” said District 1 Councilmember Barbara Bry in a statement. “In California, the rights of transgender students are protected under AB 1266, and we have a responsibility to set an example for other parts of the country. Today’s vote shows that the City of San Diego recognizes the rights of transgender students and stands in solidarity with Gavin Grimm and students like him throughout the nation.” Sherman said while he supported the rights of the

Isaiah from the Good Book probably wasn’t speaking of high school freshmen. Maybe not even rugby. Regardless, the Torrey Pines High School varsity rugby club rode the strong kicking toe and head’s up play of its youngest ever player, freshman Oren Cargill, to a Southern California Youth Rugby High School Championship, 38-27 over La Costa Canyon on Feb. 25 at Mesa Community College’s football stadium. Cargill was on the varsity roster for exactly his second game of the season and scored the Falcon’s first 17 points on two trys, two conversions and a penalty kick; finishing with 23 points for the match. “We brought the freshman up for the playoffs,” said Head Coach Matty Sandoval of Oren Cargill. “And he truly was a difference maker. The kid’s foot is a gift. But, he’s not limited to that. He excels in every phase of the game.” The Falcons play in the top SCYR “Red Division” for high schools where all athletes attend the same school and the program is under the direction of the athletic department. During San Diego County League Play, Torrey Pines knocked off St. Augustine, Poway, Cathedral Catholic and Del Norte, before losing, 14-13 in the final seconds to La Costa Canyon in the season finale three weekends ago. That loss sent the Falcons on the road to Manhattan Beach last week to face the No. 1 seed from Los Angeles and Orange County, Mira Costa High in the SCYR semi-finals. The “child” Cargill, up for the first time, and playing full-back, helped the Falcons to an overtime victory over Mira Costa that sent the team back home to face LCC—who defeated the No. 2 seed from LA and OC. Because it’s a TPHS-LCC rivalry, it wasn’t going to be easy. Down, 17-0, LCC scored four unanswered trys in a span of less than 20 minutes (8 minutes at the end of the first half, and two in the first 10 minutes of the second). Trys (similar to a Touchdown) are worth 5 points. The conversion (PAT) is worth 2. LCC missed all four of theirs, while Cargill was knocking them out like a metronome. Still, this run had LCC with all the momentum and a 20-17 lead in the second half. But, Torrey Pines managed to steal a ball out of a ruck, and spin it to No. 8 Senior Blake Richards-Smith, who off-loaded to junior Matthew Goena (formerly the flyhalf, now playing fullback on defense; outside center on offense), as the Falcons regained the lead, 24-20. Fifteen minutes later, LCC scored in the corner to turn it around. This time, the conversion was good to put the Mavericks ahead, 27-24. Sandoval, in his 8th year as Torrey Pines head coach (five as a club sport; the past three “on campus”), made a series of unorthodox personnel moves over the team’s final month to make up for injured, lost players, and to give his remaining guys the best match-up opportunities. Backline studs Jack Nelson (broken ankle), Anton Schuh (leg) being absent, Sandoval relied on his remaining player’s savvy and experience to have them shift from different positions during the fluid play that is a rugby match. In the final, Goena, a junior, and a solid flyhalf starter all year, moved aside for Cargill, and played outside center on Offense, but then sprinted deep to fullback (similar to strong safety in football) on defense. Cargill played fullback against Mira

Costa, but then flyhalf against LCC, and on at least one occasion stepped into a scrum as the No. 9 (scrum half/quarterback). Meanwhile, regular scrummy, junior Beau Morgans handled the majority of the No. 9 duties, but moved over to outside center on defense to take up the slack for Goena—now at fullback. With all that in their heads, the Falcon’s backline still managed to sort out the situation and, now trailing deep in the second half, came right back with a strong, disciplined drive, capped by senior Prop Tanner Wyandt’s try in the far left corner. Cargill marched the ball out a ridiculous 45 yards (plus the posts being 10 yard deep) to get the best angle for the conversion. His 55 yarder cleared the crossbar by inches to make it, 31-27. The game was up for grabs and ripe for a sixth lead change as the clock ticked down, with Torrey Pines pinned deep in its own territory. But, the elusive Goena managed to break the LCC back-line, and then hit ridiculously fast wing Carson Ward who went 50 yards through the vaunted LCC back-line before finally being gang-tackled by the Mavericks. Goena was right there to take the ball out of the ruck and earn his second try of the night. Cargill put the ball through the posts for the final score, 38-27. “I am very proud of our senior leadership, especially our captain, Jackson Baere. We came from behind two weeks in a row to two outstanding rugby teams,” said Sandoval. “We are fortunate and humble champions of a Southern California high school rugby culture that I think rivals any in the country.”

transgender community, he was opposed to the city joining amicus briefs on national issues. “I want to be crystal clear that the LGBTQ Community has my unwavering support. San Diego is leading the charge on transgender rights through action, not through meaningless amicus curiae briefs that waste taxpayer dollars,” Sherman said in a statement. “The City Attorney promised to keep politics out of City Hall and to focus on local priorities. Unfortunately, it is obvious she has no intention in keeping her word. If local elected officials prefer focusing on national issues instead of doing their job, they should resign from their position and instead run for federal or state office.”

Assemblymember Todd Gloria, who represents the 78th District which includes Del Mar and Solana Beach, praised his former city council for their decision. “I could not be more proud of my hometown for standing up against discrimination and choosing to file an amicus brief in support of Gavin Grimm’s United States Supreme Court case,” Gloria said. “Transgender students, like every student, should not be discriminated against just because of who they are. Today’s action by the San Diego City Council was the right thing to do, and I applaud them for their leadership and the San Diego City Attorney for bringing the item to her clients for their consideration.”

FROM DAVE ROBERTS, A2 that explain that workers’ compensation benefits are for injuries obtained while working. A person who answered the phone at Roberts’ home said he was not available, and the former supervisor did not respond to request for comment sent by email through his friend and former campaign adviser and spokesman, Gary Gartner. In the second claim Roberts is seeking money for “cumulative trauma of repetitive tasks and stressful work environment” over a year to his right hand, wrist, arm, shoulder, and his back and neck sustained while serving his district. He’s still receiving medical treatments for those injuries, records show. While he sustained the psychological injuries in October 2013, and the hand-related trauma between March 2015 and 2016, Roberts nevertheless ran for re-election. He lost to Kristin Gaspar in November by 1,272 votes, a race that was so close the winner wasn’t clear until 20 days after polls closed. After a strong start to his first term, Roberts lost momentum in the final two years in office after four women abruptly resigned from his staff and accused their boss of several improprieties. County government spent $310,000 to settle legal claims with three of them. It’s unclear when Roberts first made his two claims, but paperwork for a state adjudication process that will determine if he has right to workers’ compensation benefits was filed just days after he conceded the race to Gaspar. Other documents were filed sometime earlier. Workers’ compensation claims are supposed to be made no more than 30 days after the injury is discovered. It hasn’t been determined if or how how much the county would pay Roberts. Compensation rates are set by a variety of factors, including salary, the employee’s age, the seriousness of the injury, and its impact on a person’s ability to work. Regardless of the amount, claims paid to Roberts would be paid with public money since San Diego County is

He had what looked like a steak knife with a blade about eight inches. He held the knife up and made stabbing motions as he approached me.

— Dave Roberts Former San Diego County Supervisor self-insured. Last fiscal year San Diego County paid $22.27 million in workers’ compensation benefits. Benefits for permanent disabilities and lost wages might be available as cash payments, while medical costs would be reimbursed. An employee who is determined to be permanently and totally disabled receives payments for life. All others who receive permanent disability benefits are paid every two weeks for a set number of weeks as determined by a state formula. Employees who are paid for permanent disabilities might also be paid a single lump sum. Roberts earned $153,289.60 annually by the time he left office, and supervisors are paid a flat salary regardless of whether or not they are at work, or are out for a medical issue, vacation, or other type of absence, and they would not lose pay if they had to leave to receive care for an injury or illness. Roberts is currently working as a consultant. Roberts said he sustained the psychological injury when he was headed to a political event. According to police records, Roberts was walking on Brinell Street in Kearny Mesa when he approached a van with doors open. A man with pronged-flatware ambushed him, he said.

“He held the fork out and made stabbing motions with it as he approached me. He was mumbling something,” he said, according to the police report. The suspect had short, greasy hair, was unshaven, had pocked marked skin, and clearly lived in the van, the report said. “I left the sidewalk and went into the street around his van,” Roberts continued, according to the report. “As I headed back to the sidewalk, in front of his van, he headed toward me from the sidewalk. He had what looked like a steak knife with a blade about eight inches. He held the knife up and made stabbing motions as he approached me.” Roberts called San Diego police, and the responding officer explained that it was a misdemeanor. Roberts said he was concerned that the suspect might hurt someone, report said. The officer offered to help Roberts make a citizen’s arrest. “At that point, David Roberts said, ‘I am placing him under citizen’s arrest,’” the officer wrote in the report. Police searched the van and found a portable stove, an eight-inch kitchen knife, and a tomato knife — a type of blade that often has two prongs at the tip. The man was charged with a misdemeanor. Roberts has subsequently said that the incident strengthened his commitment to improving mental healthcare services. Repetitive-use injuries among elected officials are apparently common enough that the American Occupational Therapy Association published a brochure to help politicians avoid pain. “At the close of a long day you may find yourself with pain and stiffness in your hands, arms, neck and back and dreading that crushing grip from an over enthusiastic well-wisher,” the professional organization’s publication said. It recommended a regimen of exercises, rest, and ergonomic-friendly hand-shaking techniques to avoid injuries, and, in a move that might balk tradition, shaking with a left hand instead of the right. — Joshua Stewart is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

“It was such an honor to be able to present the award to him, and I can’t wait to present it to Viet Mai this year.” Camilleri is grateful to have worked with all the authors who’ve donated their time to appear at the conference, Krevat, her fellow Creative Writing Club students and the CCA Administration, especially Brett Killeen, Milan Perisic and the CCA ASB. Although Camilleri will soon be passing the baton to the new club president, you can bet she will be as busy as ever. “Once the conference is over, I am going to be focusing my time on enjoying my last few months in high school,” she laughed. “Oh, and deciding where I’ll be going to college!” The 6th Annual CCA Writers’ Conference will take place on Saturday, March 11 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Canyon Crest Academy, Proscenium and Media Center, 5951 Village Center Loop Road, San Diego. The event is for high school students only. Admission is free and includes programs, handouts, paper, pens and a free lunch from Chipotle Carmel Valley. Preregistration is required. For a donation of $50 or more, book clubs, organizations and individuals can sponsor a speaker and be acknowledged in the conference program.

FROM CUP, A1 the Super Bowl of horse racing, must decide in advance, because tickets will not be sold at the door. “There will be no way to get to (the) Del Mar (racetrack) on Nov. 3 or 4, unless you arrange it in advance,” by purchasing tickets online, Fravel said at the news conference. This fall marks the first time the Breeders’ Cup will be held at Del Mar in its 33-year history. The first Breeders’ Cup was held at Hollywood Park in Los Angeles in 1984. Harper said in an interview that he was already running the Del Mar race meet when he attended the first Breeders’ Cup. “I thought, wow, we’ve got to figure out how to get this thing.” Harper, a 40-year Del Mar resident, and his staff have been actively pursuing the Breeders’ Cup for more than a decade. In order to land the prestigious event, the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which runs the state-owned Del Mar Fairgrounds and race track, in 2014 completed a $4.5 million widening of the track’s turf course. Other upgrades, such as additional luxury suites, helped seal the deal, Harper said. “It’s pretty easy for me to sell something like this,” Harper said at the news conference, gesturing toward the panoramic ocean view behind him. “Of all the venues the Breeders’ Cup has been to, this has to be the icing on the cake.” Local officials hope this year’s Breeders’ Cup will be the first of many to be held at Del Mar. If the event is a success, said Harper, such a scenario is likely. Other Breeders’ Cup venues include the Santa Anita track in L.A. and Keeneland race track in Lexington, Kentucky. Next year’s Breeders’ Cup will be held at Churchill Downs, in Louisville, Kentucky, home of the Kentucky Derby, one of horse racing’s triple crown events. Attendance at the Del Mar Breeders’ Cup will be capped at 37,500 per day, much smaller than the crowds of more than 40,000 that attend opening day of the Del Mar summer race meet.

FROM DEVELOPMENT, A1 seeing more “pocket developments” like this one, wedging new homes into already developed neighborhoods. He said because big homebuilders can no longer build 200 to 300 homes at a time as there’s not hundreds of acres of land left, they must embark on what is considered a suburban infill development. Neighbors on Chelterham Terrace below the proposed project said they are concerned about not only the massing of their homes but maintaining their privacy if the new homes will look down on their properties. Semic said the view will be “pretty

The Breeders’ Cup and Del Mar Thoroughbred Club are investing $4.5 million in temporary luxury seating for the event, including two trackside “chalets” each seating about 900 people. Also, 900 box seats are being added to the Clubhouse and Stretch Run areas of the track. The infield will feature “The Beach,” a sandy area that will hold up to 250 people with casual seating, umbrellas, a video screen and private bar. Shuttle services, as well as drop-off areas for Uber and taxis, will be available for attendees, as on-site parking will be limited to those with official parking credentials, according to event planners. Over two days of racing, the Breeders’ Cup includes 13 races -plus an “under-card,” with purses and awards totaling $28 million. Local officials said the event, which attracts horse racing fans from around the world, is expected to generate tens of millions of dollars in economic activity for the San Diego region. The event will be broadcast on NBC and a week-long festival, including such events as concerts, a golf tournament and a 10k run, is also planned. Some events are planned for a temporary tent proposed to be erected at Del Mar’s Powerhouse Park. At a Del Mar City Council meeting in December, council members supported the concept of the so-called “Barn at the Beach,” but wanted more details before giving final approval. Sinnott said city staff is working with Breeders’ Cup officials to gather more information about the planned events, and the proposal is expected to come back before the council within a few weeks. A mix of public and private events is planned, and Sinnott said the location of the tent at Powerhouse Park will encourage community involvement in the Breeders’ Cup,. as well as bring visitors to Del Mar. “I think (the Breeders’ Cup) is a chance for people who aren’t familiar with Del Mar and all our assets, like the beaches and good weather, to experience Del Mar,” Sinnott said. challenging” due to the grade difference and heavy tree coverage between the lots. “Just as valuable as your privacy is, it’s just as valuable for the potential homebuyer,” Semic said. Carmel Valley Planning Board Chair Frisco White made a request that the developers make an effort design-wise to respect the topography and not to use fill to make the pads any higher. Residents also expressed concerns about the neighborhoods’ narrow streets and construction going on in their backyards for 18 months. White said the planning board can make construction conditions a part of the project approval.

FROM SUTTON, A14 knowledgeable. Yes, long-time board members may be more educated about how school districts operate, due to longevity, and they have historical perspective. But school board members are not unique among all other elected positions. They do not require special knowledge or higher intelligence. It’s nothing that smart, committed individuals can’t learn. After serving multiple terms in office, trustees feel protective of the legacy they’ve helped to create and the need to preserve a particular ideological point of view. But this shuts out others who may have much to contribute and may be quick studies. Encouraging potential candidates with similar views to run in their stead is a tactic frequently employed by veteran trustees who decide they want out. This protects the long-time school board member’s agenda by ensuring that their pet issues remain intact and their particular ideology continues. But does it cross the line when trustees hand-pick their successors, get the backing of special interests, and work behind the scenes to unduly influence the election? Qualified candidates who can infuse a school district with fresh vitality, energy and new ideas are often discouraged when faced with the decision to challenge entrenched incumbents. It takes a special kind of person to take that on. Last year, there was no more qualified, knowledgeable and energized San Dieguito school board candidate than Lucile Lynch. But because she was running against two long-time incumbents, Dalessandro and

Beth Hergesheimer, she lost. Perhaps the bigger reason she lost is because she was unjustly vilified by the San Dieguito teachers union which campaigned vigorously for the two incumbents who had just months before approved a huge raise for teachers. Lynch is a woman who reasonably – and very respectfully – questioned board decisions about the budget, salary increases, spending priorities and vendor contracts. She was not, as the union insisted, a rubber stamp for an anti-teacher agenda. She was an independent thinker who owed allegiance to no one, not least of all the board minority. She was engaged, articulate, dedicated and intelligent. And yet she lost, a loss for students and parents in the district as well. Beating veteran incumbents, especially incumbents endorsed by the teachers union, can be an insurmountable challenge. Fresh enthusiasm For local school districts, the following trustees are serving three or more terms of four years each: San Dieguito Union High School District: • Joyce Dalessandro, first elected in 1996, now serving her sixth term which expires in 2020 • Beth Hergesheimer, first elected in 2004, now serving her fourth term which expires in 2020 Encinitas Union School District: •Marla Strich, first elected in 1998, now serving her fifth term which expires in 2018 Cardiff School District : • Nancy Orr, first elected in 1988, now serving her eighth term which expires in 2020 Solana Beach School District :

In the cases of Cardiff and Encinitas, it’s less of an issue when only one trustee out of five is a long-timer. But in San Dieguito and Solana Beach, it’s time for new blood. No one would question that longevity offers advantages. But someone – especially a younger board member who still has children attending district schools – can offset the loss of a veteran by providing the district with new, exciting ways to think about problems and solutions and by contributing fresh enthusiasm that prevents school boards from becoming stagnant. Maybe the limit is two terms, maybe three. But beyond that, it becomes tedious and even obstructionist, as newcomers who would like to contribute to the process as public servants are shut out. At some point, veteran trustees need to step aside – and step aside completely – to give other voices a chance to be heard. Term limits may be the only way to force the issue. *************** There is potential good news on the legislative front for proponents of later school start times. On Feb. 13, Democratic state Sen. Anthony Portantino introduced Senate Bill 328 which would require all Calif. middle and high schools to start school no earlier than 8:30 a.m. The science is clear, he said, that “starting the school day later improves the quality of education, health and welfare of our children.” Portantino’s news release cited studies that confirm that insufficient sleep in teens “poses a public health risk and has an adverse effect on academic success.” In addition, later start times would improve attendance. Since funding is tied to attendance, Portantino’s office said that the Los Angeles Unified School District, for example, would gain about $40 million per year if attendance improved by just 1 percent. The benefits of later school start times for adolescents struggling with changing circadian rhythms have been irrefutably documented by leading scientific and medical professionals and organizations for so many years that it’s astonishing why districts like San Dieguito continue to be unresponsive. Excuses – like a disruption of bus schedules and after-school sports, and an inconvenience to parents and teachers – ring hollow when districts claim to support their students’ health, well-being and academic success. A 9 a.m. start time would be even better, but 8:30 a.m. is progress. School districts have ignored the data on the benefits of later start times for decades now. Finally, they may be forced to act in students’ best interests. Sr. Education Writer Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@gmail.com.

FROM INTERSECTION, A2 up all the way back to the freeway and drivers are forced to cheat over to make illegal right turns from the straight-through lane. Drivers who want to head straight on Carmel Creek to the communities of Greenbriar, Monte Clare and Triology end up using the far left turn lane and sneaking in at the last minute to avoid those using the straight-through lane to turn right. “All activity is worse now more than ever,” said Ravad at the board’s Feb. 21 meeting. In the past, the city had issues with what they perceived to be low traffic counts at the intersection as well as preserving the bike lane. The planning board’s request would be to keep the bike lane and make one lane a straight and a right. At the meeting, the board approved sending a letter to expedite the re-striping to Mayor Kevin Faulconer and San Diego City Council.

FROM COMMON SENSE, A2 ethically in society at large.” The Del Mar Union School District has been using Common Sense Education’s innovative and research-based digital citizenship resources, which were created in collaboration with Dr. Howard Gardner of the GoodPlay Project at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. The resources teach students, educators and parents tangible skills related to Internet safety, protecting online reputations and personal privacy, managing online relationships, and respecting creative copyright. The free resources are currently used in more than 90,000 classrooms nationwide. “We’re honored to be recognized as a Common Sense Digital Citizenship Certified District,” said Superintendent Holly McClurg. “By preparing our students to use technology safely and responsibly, we are providing them unlimited opportunities to maximize and personalize their learning.” For more information about the Del Mar Union School District, go to www.dmusd.org.

FROM LETTER, A14 receive a grade will resort to much less honorable practices. Especially in high competitive communities, cheating can run rampant. Students should be encouraged by parental figures to achieve what they are able to through their own skills instead of being criticized for not reaching their high expectations. By reducing stress in a student’s life, students may be less likely to cheat. There is less of a reason to cheat if students are not pressured to do so well that they cannot achieve the expectations. A relaxed environment will help reduce cheating rates. Joo-seung Kim, CCA junior

‘Larry Himmel Day’ at Free Flight

T

he Larry Himmel Foundation presented a $5,000 check to Free Flight bird sanctuary in Del Mar Feb. 26 at “Larry Himmel Day,” a fundraising event. During the event, guests were invited to meet Free Flight’s 50 parrots, as well as a canary and African Crowned Crane, while donating toward veterinary costs for the birds. Miles Himmel, who founded The Larry Himmel Foundation after his father, Larry Himmel, passed away in 2014, said the group regularly gives back to San Diego-based businesses and charities. His father, who had a regular show on CBS 8 highlighting noteworthy places in the county, profiled Free Flight on multiple occasions, Miles said.

Safety sewn into moms’ workout gear BY PAM KRAGEN The 7th annual Finish Chelsea’s Run event will return to Balboa Park March 4 and many of its runners will be lining up in leggings and headbands that sport a unique sunflower design. The sunflower fitness gear was developed by GRACEDBYGRIT, an all-women Solana Beach company that was partly inspired by Chelsea King, the late Poway teen for whom the fundraising 5K race is named. King, who loved sunflowers, was killed by a sexual predator while out for a solo evening jog in Rancho Bernardo on Feb. 25, 2010. After her death, her parents, Kelly and Brent, formed the Chelsea’s Light Foundation, which is dedicated to toughening laws against sexual predators nationwide. That was the same year Cardiff resident Kimberly Caccavo and her triathlon coach, Kate Nowlan of Solana Beach, first met Kelly King. She came to speak to triathletes who were raising money for the foundation, and one thing she said to the group stuck in Caccavo’s mind. “Her mom said if only Chelsea had a phone or a whistle with her that night, maybe she’d still be alive,” she said. That was the seed that grew into GRACEDBYGRIT, a women’s athletic wear company that includes a flat, high-pitched, water-safe attachable whistle with every item sold, as well as hidden pockets, large enough for a cellphone, keys or credit card, sewn into the waistbands and sleeves. “The inspiration was Chelsea, but also many friends told us that running made them feel fit and powerful but it was scary running on a trail by themselves,” said Caccavo, who is company president and CEO. She and Nowlan, who is chief operating officer, started GRACEDBYGRIT in 2013, and since then the company has sold more than $2 million in women’s apparel in its flagship store in Solana Beach, a second pop-up shop in Las Vegas and online. The company has 11 employees, all women, as well as another 16 women who work in the shops. Nowlan said the company’s mission isn’t just to sell clothes, but to empower girls and women.

Co-founders of GRACEDBYGRIT women's athletic wear company Kimberly Caccavo, left, shows a safety whistle and Kate Nowlan shows a pants pocket feature that will hold a cell phone, in the company's retail store in Solana Beach. The company regularly hosts evening events by women authors and designers and it hosts “Gritty Girls” workshops for groups of eight to 25 tween and teen girls, where they’re taught self-esteem and confidence-building skills. GRACEDBYGRIT also raises money for Chelsea’s Light. Up to $50 spent on each pair of Chelsea Leggings (sold on the company website as well as on the Finish Chelsea’s Run registration page) goes to the foundation. Caccavo said the company’s name was inspired by the challenges women overcome in their lives. “Every woman has this gritty moment in their life that gives

them grace,” she said. “It’s about women being safe and strong and capable and able to do what they want to achieve their dreams.” Caccavo was a chemical and materials engineer who was a researcher for NASA’s Space Shuttle program, then she worked in the telephone directory industry. But when she was widowed at age 30, she decided to take a risk and move to Venezuela, where she helped privatize the country’s telephone industry. While there, she narrowly escaped being kidnapped (a common threat at the time for foreign executives). Now in her 50s, she and her second husband are raising a 16-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter. It was through their son that she met Nowlan, who was the boy’s swim coach. Nowlan, who has two teenage daughters, brings the athlete’s perspective to the company. All of the clothing has SPF 50 sun protection, which is a big hit with women athletes. The company also uses compression-style fabrics that she said can make any woman, regardless of her size, feel better about how she looks. The company started out selling just eight items of running gear, but when the women realized how well its Italian-made quick-dry fabrics held up in saltwater and other conditions, they expanded their line. Today, the clothing — all made locally in National City, San Diego and Orange County factories (except for the whistles) — includes gear for yoga, snow sports, water sports, cycling, hiking, tennis, golf and dance. Prices range from $29 for shorts to $118 for leggings and jackets. Nowlan said the company’s long-term plan is to one day be the top women’s athletic apparel company in the world. For now, the goal is more simple. “We want to be a household name that women associate with power and feeling great about themselves and taking care of themselves,” she said.

Torrey Pines High School’s TP Players in the musical “The Addams Family.”

Winter musical ‘The Addams Family’ opens at TPHS Torrey Pines High School’s TP Players had the opening of their winter musical, “The Addams Family” on Wednesday, Feb. 22, in the Black Box Theatre. The actors, along with a live orchestra from the Torrey Pines music department, led by Amy Gelb, brought to life this classic, hilarious show. Director and drama teacher Marinee Payne did a superb job of casting sophomore Kaitlyn O’Leary as Wednesday Addams, and senior Lilly Ruffner as Morticia Addams, who actually look like the characters they portrayed. Sophomore Bennett Prag, who plays Uncle Fester, was so dedicated to the production that he shaved his head for the role. From choreography by

Members of “The Addams Family” cast. TPHS dance team members, to Meghan Carpenter, the student musical director, to set construction and costume design by drama production classes, Payne made this a very student-run production. The music, dancing and

Neurogenx treats nerve pain at the source BY DAVID L. CODDON Surgery-phobes (and you’re probably one of them), take heart. If you suffer from neuropathic symptoms or neuromuscular pain, you’ve got the option of a non-invasive treatment that its proponents say is 87 percent effective. Dr. “The concept is Amirhassan called electro-signal Bahreman therapy, or EST,” says Dr. Amirhassan Bahreman, medical director at the Neurogenx NerveCenter in La Mesa, part of a nationwide chain that has been open since October. The FDA-approved and patented Neurogenx Treatment employs high-frequency electronic waves that penetrate muscular tissue where pain and discomfort persist. According to the Neurogenx website, “The treatment creates changes at the body’s cellular level that reduce swelling, remove excess fluids and waste products, alter Ph

levels and increase cellular metabolism.” “Inflammation of the nerve is the major reason for nerve damage,” explains Bahreman, who is the only board-certified neurologist in San Diego County who offers this treatment as an alternative to narcotics or invasive surgery. “With this technology, the (developers of Neurogenx Treatment) were able to prove that the inflammation can be reduced.” The ideal candidate for this treatment, he says, is a person suffering from peripheral nerve damage. It has also been available to patients with diabetes, fibromyalgia and even vitamin deficiency. Treatment is not a one-time-only proposition. “You have to be committed to the program for it to be effective,” Bahreman stresses. That program generally entails 40-minute sessions twice a week for three months, all of it on an outpatient basis. “The response rate is very high,” says Bahreman, who has more than 14 years of experience in neurology

Neurogenx NerveCenter is at 8851 Center Drive, Suite 608, La Mesa. and whose regular practice in the office is called the Neurological and Pain Institute. “The day and night difference we see in some patients is there.” Presently, Neurogenx Treatment is not covered by insurance, though Bahreman said some private insurers have made exceptions. But he points

out that the cost over time is not prohibitive. “It differs from case to case, of course, but when you break it down to the number of treatments, I think it’s less than what you’d pay for a chiropractor or for massage therapy.” Since some patients may be new to EST or perhaps even wary about it,

Bahreman offers complimentary consultations to each prospective new patient. Because its patients come into the office so often during the treatment program, “they know us by name and ask us what’s going on in our lives, and we do the same,” says Eileen Craker, who is Bahreman’s physician liaison and who works with other physicians on referrals for this treatment. “We want to create almost a family with our patients.” Bahreman said he believes that the future is promising for patients of Neurogenx Treatment on both a financial and a medical level. “In the next five years,” he says, “it’ll be even more effective and more affordable.” — Neurogenx NerveCenter is at 8851 Center Drive, Suite 608, La Mesa.

Written by Qui Nguyen. Directed by Jeannine Marquie. She Kills Monsters tells the story of Agnes Evans as she leaves her childhood home in Ohio following the death of her teenage sister, Tilly. When Agnes finds Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook, however, she stumbles into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was Tilly’s refuge.

In this high-octane dramatic comedy laden with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and ’90s pop culture, acclaimed young playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all. “The dungeon master, that eight-sided-dice-wielding arbiter in any Dungeons & Dragons game, serves as a potent metaphor in ‘She Kills Monsters,’ Qui Nguyen’s deceptively breezy and rather ingenious comedy.” -- New York Times (2011 Premiere).

Mom Today, Professional Tomorrow: Getting Back into the Workforce After having kids, many moms will take only a brief maternity leave before heading back to work. But for many moms, having kids means an extended or even permanent break from work. For some, their wages don’t actually offset the cost of childcare when they’re at work. Others may want to take on a more prominent role at home until their kids go to school. And still others see it as a job shift, from career woman to stay-at-home mom. While each mom’s choice to work is one she must make with her family, it’s important to know what may lie ahead if she does decide to go back to work. For one thing, depending on how long the

mom is away from the workforce, technology may have substantially changed in the years she has stayed at home. There is also a big difference if the mom has been off for two-tothree years or eighteen. The same is true for availability. So much of the workforce is becoming automated, and the jobs that will appear in the next decade may not have been invented yet. Couple that with the competition from workers just out of college, who may have up-to-date training or are willing to work for less money, and opting back into the workforce after a break can become extremely difficult. So if you’re a mom who wants to go back to work after a break, what can you do to prepare to get back into the workforce? First, check your ego. Even if you held a high-ranking title before, many corporations will want their potential employees to have very current knowledge of the field, which an extended break can hamper. Whatever you once did will matter little. It’s almost impossible to just pick up where you left off. Also, if you were earning a high salary, you may not be able to get anywhere near close to what you used to make. This is because there

are fewer jobs since the recession, and there is greater competition. And there will be a gap in your resume (the truth is that companies generally don’t count volunteering at schools or PTA service as resume enrichers). Returning to the workforce after a break can mean you have to accept a lower salary. Also important to consider: returning to the workforce after a break to have kids also means you may have to move back down in the hierarchy before you can move back up. In the meantime, while you’re getting your resume in shape, or if you’re still in the contemplation phase of getting back into the workforce, start with some serious networking. This is especially helpful if you have an eye toward the long-game and you can build up your network over a bigger stretch of time. This doesn’t mean just selling yourself and your skills; really work on learning from other people in the field. If you have an area of expertise and can give occasional freebie advice, someone in your network may keep you in mind if a position comes up that seems right for you. While you’re networking, spend time boosting any skills you may be lacking, or

learn the new technology favored in your field. Getting any kind of recommended certification is a great addition to your resume, and it will show employers that you are committed and that it won’t be left up to the employer to get you back up to speed. Struggling to find that job after a couple of months? Consider volunteering, at a place such as a non-profit, in which you can both network and show off your skills in a professional environment. It may even open you up to a field you hadn’t been aware of previously. As far as new fields go, take chances on positions outside your comfort zone. You may want to apply for (or volunteer for) and company that’s looking for “adjacent” skills to the ones you used in your former career. It’s not like switching from neuroscience to firefighting; but if you have, for instance, grant writing skills, you would be an ideal candidate for a wide variety of jobs.

Assistance League of Rancho San ‘The Illusion’ is fantastic fun Dieguito to hold Wine and Cheese at North Coast Rep Theatre Social for potential new members Remember your New Year’s Resolutions to make new friends and/or become more involved with your local community? We are well into the New Year but those resolutions are not out of reach. You can address both of those issues by attending a Wine and Cheese Social hosted by Assistance League of Rancho San Dieguito (ALRSD). The Wine and Cheese Social is for potential new members and will be held on March 9 from 5 p.m. - 7 p.m. at the private residence of a member of ALRSD. Everyone is welcome to attend to learn about the organization. Assistance League of Rancho San Dieguito is an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of children and adults affected by trauma, violence and poverty. Annually, the group’s dedicated chapter members volunteer over 22,00 hours and return over $100,000 to local communities through their

BY DIANA SAENGER magine you are aging, have lost contact with your only son, and yearn to see him once more. That’s where we find Pridamant (John Herzog), who, desperate to locate his long-lost Clindor (Michael Polak), visits a sorceress (Kandis Chappell) hoping she’ll use her magic to find him in “The Illusion,” which runs through March 19 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre. Pridamant shows up at what looks like a mountain cave (great stage set by Marty Burnett) and is greeted by The Amanuensis (John Greenleaf), the sorceress’ servant. She enters with a huge walking stick, her long, shear scarves blowing in the air. She walks to a portal and conjures a scene with Clindor and a few ladies. Scenes come and go with different characters involved. Clindor is sure he is in love with the beautiful Melibea (Sharon Rietkerk) and pursues her. But there are others who want to claim her love, like the funny and always fashionable Matamore (Andrew Ableson). However, the maid (Christina L. Flynn) seems to want Clindor for herself and carries out a little of her own trickery. Almost every scene brings laughs (and sometimes confusion) with all the

Thge cast of ‘The Illusion,’ playing through March at North Coast Repertory Theatre.

LET’S REVIEW shenanigans that go on, and the characters sometimes change names. Much of this seems to confuse Pridamant, but he always steps up when his son is in peril, pressing the sorceress to change what he sees. Each cast member pulls off their role(s) superbly. Herzog is stern and demanding as Pridamant. Chappell excels at her lengthy dialogue and magic scenes. Rietkerk and Flynn are cute, flirty and mischievous. Ableson and Polak demonstrate their manhood and determination to out-do each other. Greenleaf brings more laughs with his

actions than words. The setting in 17th century France allows for exceptional scenes, such as fencing, which brings even more laughs and mystery to the plot. North Coast Rep Artistic Director David Ellenstein, who once had a role in the production in Arizona, does a great job directing. The costumes by Abby Caywood are eye-popping. ■ IF YOU GO: “The Illusion” runs through March 19 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets from $39.

For cold season et al zinc’s a real zinger

L

ike Hippocrates, I’m going to “make food my medicine,” by amping up a store of zinc-rich treasures in my diet to kick any blossoming cold viruses under the bus. Keep in mind, zinc levels have to be kept in a delicate balance like Baby Bear’s porridge — too little will cause deficiency problems, while too much will allow damaging free radicals to run rampant. The recommended daily dosage for adult males is 11 milligrams, slightly less for women (8 milligrams), but more if you are pregnant or breast-feeding (12 milligrams). While vegetarians should consume higher amounts since plant-based zinc is not absorbed as well by the body as animal-based ones.

Best zinc sources can be found in these foods:

1. Pomegranate heads the fruit list, followed avocados, and blackberries. Toss these ruby gems in green salads, smoothies, or stews and sauces to top wild-caught fish or chicken. 2. Soybeans are rife with zinc (9 milligrams in one cup), along with limas, chickpeas, kidneys, green beans and peas.

Roasted soybeans (organic, please) make a great portable snack, while other forms of soy, especially tofu and tempeh dial up salads, stir fries, egg and grain dishes. 3. Sprinkle toasted or raw wheat germ on both savories and sweets. This small, edible part of the wheat kernel has a concentrated load of vitamins and minerals to bolster the immune, digestive and cardiovascular systems, along with an anti-aging bonus. 4. Turn over a new leaf with spinach, endive and Swiss chard in warm wilted salads, Italian wedding soups, smoothies and pastas. 5. Beef it up, so long as it’s organic and grass-fed, or lean, immune boosting lamb as a hearty ragu over egg noodles, a herb encrusted rack, or stewed with assorted root vegetables. 6. Go nutty with cashews packed with almost 8 mg of zinc in a single cup, or pine nuts, pecans, almonds, walnuts and hazelnuts to bake, snack, toss, grind or blend in assorted dishes. Pumpkin, sesame, chia and flaxseeds also give a hearty dose of protein and zinc. 7. Food of the Gods, super dark chocolate with cocoa content of 70 percent or greater is not only an
