Fair board OKs long-term contract with KAABOO BY KRISTINA HOUCK KAABOO Del Mar will be back at the Del Mar Fairgrounds — for at least five more years. The three-day music festival announced its return to the racetrack just hours after it made its debut in September, but the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which runs the state-owned fairgrounds, didn’t approve the long-term contract until its April 12 meeting. “Arguably, we have the best racetrack in the

country,” said Board President Russ Penniman. “When you look qualitatively in how fairs are ranked, we run the best fair in the country. ... It would be wonderful to have, what I think has potential to be, the top music festival in the country.” The inaugural KAABOO kicked off with more than 100 acts on seven stages, including headliners No Doubt, The Killers and Zac Brown Band. Although the full lineup hasn’t been

announced, the second annual event is set for Sept. 16-18 with musicians Jack Johnson, the Goo Goo Dolls and Gavin DeGraw, among others. Tickets are already on sale from $249 to $2,499. Despite noise complaints from a number of neighbors, the festival could be at the fairgrounds for the next decade under the deal approved by the board. “Although I love hearing from Del Mar and SEE FAIR, A20

SF Irrigation District seeks rate hike input BY KAREN BILLING The Santa Fe Irrigation District is going through its rate-setting process right now and an eight-page notice was recently sent out to all customers on what is being proposed and how they can participate in the process — including how to oppose the increases. Santa Fe Irrigation District Manager Michael Bardin visited the Rancho Santa Fe Association board meeting on April 7 as the district continues its outreach process on the proposed raise in rates. “We haven’t raised rates in three years and we currently have the lowest rates in San Diego County,” Bardin said. “I used to take a certain amount of pride in that but at this point that causes me some concern because as the cost of business goes up, we’ve been absorbing a lot of costs and wholesale water costs are going up. It’s critical now for us to raise our rates.” Not only is the district changing the rates because it needs more revenue, the structure of rates is also changing. While Bardin said it is a very complex and nuanced structure, in general, the increase in revenue that the district is requiring is about 9 percent. “That does not mean that everybody’s rates go up 9 percent, your rates go up proportional to your level usage, your meter size,” Bardin said. Due to changes in fixed and variable costs, some customers will see a very slight increase while others will see a large increase, he said. The board will consider taking SEE HIKES, A23

21ST ANNUAL ‘UGLY DOG CONTEST’ The 21st annual Ugly Dog Contest took place April 10 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. The event, which was hosted by Del Mar Kiwanis and San Diego Coastal Chamber of Commerce, benefits the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank and Celebration of Champions event, which supports the Peckham Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego, and its programs.

Del Mar offers course on communication Training sessions scheduled BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although various issues may sometimes leave the community divided, Del Mar citizens have one thing in common: They care about their city. In an effort to keep conversations civil — even when there’s conflict — community members are invited to participate in one of three upcoming courses. “I’ve always noticed that when people care a lot and feel passionate, we can move into conflict, and that’s only natural,” said Gloria Sandvik, a Del Mar resident, who is funding the sessions, along with her longtime friend and fellow Del Mar resident Barbara Freeman. “So I was

excited about doing something because of the amount of care people have for this community. People care so much about the community.” The courses will take place just weeks after the City Council unanimously adopted a code of civil discourse. On April 4, Del Mar became the first city in the region to adopt such a code, which is based on the National Conflict Resolution Center’s Code of Civil Discourse. “It’s very exciting for a community such as Del Mar to take a leadership role in adopting the code,” said Del Mar resident Steven Dinkin, president and CEO of NCRC. “We really envision the Code of Civil Discourse being a seminal document across the entire region, and SEE CIVIL, A20

he California Parks and Recreation Society recently awarded the city of Solana Beach and the La Colonia de Eden Gardens Foundation the 2015 award for “Best Community Event in San Diego County” for the Dia de los Muertos event held on Nov. 1, 2015 at La Colonia Park. Event volunteers and La Colonia de Eden Gardens Foundation board members accepted the award during a presentation March 30 at the Encinitas Community Center.

Del Mar woman honored for decades of work in community BY KRISTINA HOUCK Having championed women and children’s causes for decades, it’s no surprise that Del Mar’s Rosanne Holliday was recently honored during Women’s History Month. Acknowledging her impact on the community, California Assembly Speaker Emeritus Toni Atkins recognized Holliday as one of the 78th Assembly District’s 2016 “Woman of the Year” honorees during a March 18 awards ceremony in San Diego. “I was certainly surprised and shocked,” Holliday said. “I’m very honored.” A Del Mar resident for more than 40 years, Holliday has devoted her time and talents to Planned Parenthood for just as long. Early childhood development and reproductive health have long been important issues to Holliday, a professor emerita from Southwestern College. “Planned Parenthood encompasses that,” Holliday said. “They want women to plan their pregnancies so that the baby’s as healthy as it can be.”

Holliday received a bachelor’s degree with a concentration in psychology at Scripps College, a liberal arts women’s college in Claremont. She went on to earn her master’s in child development and family studies at Mills College in Oakland and her teaching credential at San Jose State University. Holliday’s career and volunteer-related efforts have always reflected her devotion to women and children. Rosanne Holliday After college, she served as director of Judge Baker Child Guidance Center, a therapeutic nursery school she helped start in Boston in the early 1960s. She then became a teacher and lecturer at Tufts University’s Eliot-Pearson Child Study Center.

In 1966, Holliday returned to the West Coast with her husband, Joel Holliday, where she worked as a training consultant for Head Start in Los Angeles County. When the couple moved to La Jolla with their then-8-month-old son, William, in 1968, Holliday established a nursery school at Children’s Hospital of San Diego, now called Rady Children’s Hospital. Holliday also started teaching at Grossmont College and Southwestern College. Both community colleges offered her positions, but she ultimately selected Southwestern College. “I loved it because it had such a diverse population,” said Holliday, who started at Southwestern College in 1970. “It was a lot more interesting.” While at Southwestern, Holliday invited representatives from Planned Parenthood to speak to students in her child development classes. “They were real good at it,” she said. “They had all the charts and things that I didn’t have access to.” SEE ROSANNE HOLLIDAY, A22

Air Force veteran turns birthday into benefit for ERASE Child Trafficking BY KRISTINA HOUCK Instead of blowing out candles, Del Mar resident Brian Raduenz recently celebrated his 50th birthday by raising awareness about child trafficking. “I wanted to get more involved,” Raduenz said. “This was an opportunity to kick start that in a positive way.” The March 19 birthday bash held at the Brigantine in Del Mar benefited ERASE Child Trafficking, a nonprofit organization that aims to eliminate child trafficking. Don Felder, a former member of the Eagles, as well as a magician and illusionist, performed at the event. Although sales from donated art are still being calculated, at least $5,000 was raised through donations and a silent auction. “To have someone like Brian, in his community and with his reputation, opens up our network. It also brings us credibility,” said Steven Resnick, co-founder and board chairman of ERASE. “Who better to pass the word about a cause? He’s a special kind of person.” Raduenz is the chief executive officer of Solana Beach-based Merlin Global Services, a company that specializes in providing tailored intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance services through flight

operations, sensor maintenance, training and engineering services. He has been with the company since 2008. Prior to joining Merlin Global Services, Raduenz served in the United States Air Force for 20 years. As a flight test engineer and program manager, he supported a variety of manned and unmanned aircraft acquisition programs. During two tours in Washington D.C., Raduenz served in the Pentagon with oversight of remotely piloted aircraft budgets, and as director of the White House Military Office for presidential contingency programs under President George W. Bush. In January, Raduenz learned about ERASE from a friend and former colleague in the military. “I was looking for a good organization to support in association with having a birthday party, so I got connected with them through a guy that I served with in the military,” recalled Raduenz, who received a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from the U.S. Air Force Academy. He also earned a master’s degree in electrical engineering from the Air Force Institute of Technology and a master’s degree in military studies from Air University. Resnick co-founded ERASE with Tony

Sparks in late 2013. Resnick has worked in the defense services industry for 17 years. Sparks, who also serves as vice chairman of the board, is an expert in leading child trafficking recovery missions. He spent 25 years in the U.S. Army, with most of his career assigned to special operations. Resnick, Sparks and other representatives from ERASE attended Raduenz’s party, where they shared their story. “It’s such a perverse problem. We’ve got to do more,” Resnick said. “We do education, we do recovery and we do reclamation to try to give back.” About 17,000 children are trafficked out of the U.S. annually, Resnick said.

Of the more than 11,800 endangered runaways reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in 2015, one in five were likely victims of child sex trafficking. Of those, 74 percent were in the care of social services when they went missing. “I just want people to be aware it’s a real problem,” Resnick said. “I just want moms and dads and kids to pay attention. This is a real threat. It can happen in seconds.” With many retired military working with the organization, Raduenz felt right at home and was ready to get involved with ERASE after he learned more about the organization’s mission.

CCA Foundation Gala to be held May 14 Del Mar looks to sign lease The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation’s mission is to enrich the experience of every student every day, and with CCA enrollment at an all-time high, the needs of the students continue to grow.

Featuring collaboration between all seven Envision Arts disciplines, Quest STEM divisions, and CCA Athletics, the event promises to be an enlightening, entertaining, and educational evening for everyone attending. According to Executive Director Joanne Couvrette, this year’s event will be held on campus to minimize costs, allowing the Foundation to invest more into student programs. “Our goal was to create an event at CCA for CCA, ensuring that our money would be spent at the school, rather than an off-site venue.” By holding the event on campus, attendees also are treated to a more rich view into the programs that make CCA truly unique. The Dinner Reception help at CCA will highlight Italian cuisine from Ranch Events, including dinner, a selection of Italian desserts, and gourmet coffees.

BY KRISTINA HOUCK When Del Mar’s city hall is demolished so a new civic center complex can be constructed, city staff will temporarily be housed at South Fair, rather than Shores Park as originally planned. As part of the consent calendar, the City Council on April 4 authorized the city manager to negotiate and execute a lease for 6,625 square feet of space at the office building at 2010 Jimmy Durante Boulevard. “The price for renting a place is about the same without the need to do construction and bring utilities and annoy neighbors and all that stuff that comes with going to the Shores, so we’re very happy about that,” Councilman Dwight Worden said. Although the city had planned to place modular buildings on the Shores property — a 5.3-acre park bounded by Camino del Mar, Ninth Street and Stratford Court — space later became available at South Fair. Staff determined it “provides the most favorable combination of cost, operational efficiency, ease of move-in, and lack of environmental and neighbor Impacts,” according to the staff report. The building isn’t equipped with an elevator, so the public counter area and the receptionist will be located on the first floor. Meeting space is also available. A large open suite in the center of the complex will serve as the council chambers. There are separate bathrooms within the facility, and there is a room for Del Mar TV. The majority of the administrative staff will be located on the second floor. Estimated construction of the civic center project is between 18 and 24 months. Providing a buffer, the lease term will be for 26 months. SEE HALL, A22

Torrey Pines grad Rennie on short list for liver transplant BY JOHN MAFFEI Hours turn into days. Days morph into weeks. Weeks become months. And all Savannah Rennie can do is wait for someone to die. “I know it sounds kind of ghoulish,” Rennie said. “I’m waiting for an accident. I’m waiting for someone to pass away. It’s kind of sad.” But for Rennie to have life, she needs Savannah a liver transplant. Rennie A healthy volleyball star, the 6-foot-2 Rennie was the San Diego Section Player of the Year in 2014, leading Torrey Pines High to the Open Division championship. Ranked nationally as the No. 20 Senior Ace by Prep-Volleyball.com, she accepted a scholarship to Cal, left home early and arrived in Berkeley in the spring of 2015 to get a jump on the season. “After two weeks of training, we had Savannah penciled in as a starter,” said Cal coach Rich Feller, who has led the Bears to 12 straight NCAA appearances and has produced 16 All-Americans in 17 seasons. “She was dynamic, aggressive and super competitive.” Back home over the summer,

though, Rennie became ill. Nothing serious. The flu, maybe, with headaches, nausea, body aches and a fever. When the fever hit 105, Renee Rennie took her daughter to the doctor. Over the next eight days, there were four stops at urgent care and finally a trip to the hospital, where Savannah was found to have an enlarged spleen and liver. After a battery of tests over the next several months, Savannah was diagnosed with a rare illness called congenital hepatic fibrosis with portal hypertension — a disorder that impairs the basic functions of the liver. The disease usually presents itself at birth or later in life in the 70s or 80s. “Most infants born with this don’t come home,” said Renee Rennie, who along with Savannah has moved to Indianapolis because the time frame for transplants is shorter in the Midwest. “And it’s usually diagnosed in older people because other organs are shutting down. “This doesn’t happen to healthy 18-19-year-old kids. “We have come to understand death is a part of life. We’ve learned that organ donation can be such a positive thing. “We’d like Savannah to be a spokesperson for organ donations and transplants.”

Savannah’s only hope is for a full liver transplant. Five weeks ago, Savannah was No. 25 on the transplant list. Because she has a high MELD score — points assigned to transplant candidates for age and health— she was moved to No. 9. Thursday, April 7, the family was told Savannah is in the No. 2 transplant position. “That’s so good, but so scary,” said Renee Rennie. “Every time the phone rings, we jump. Savannah has handled this like a trooper. She’s more mature than any 19-year-old I’ve ever been around.” Savannah must stay free of illness, no colds or flu. She has been able to go through light workouts but no heavy lifting. “I was a workout warrior,” said Savannah, whose brother, Luc, played baseball at Torrey Pines and in the Baltimore Orioles system for five years. “I loved lifting. I loved working out, being active.” The family can’t stray more than four hours from the Indiana University Transplant Center, where Savannah is under the care of Dr. Paul Y. Kwo. Kwo is an associate of Dr. Catherine Frenette at Scripps Green in La Jolla, who had Savannah as a patient in San Diego. The two work closely together and with Elaine Garcia, the women’s volleyball trainer at Cal. Garcia made

a surprise visit to Indianapolis last week. To keep from going crazy, mother and daughter had plans for last weekend. The Purdue baseball team played at IU. Savannah and Renee planned to go see family friend Kyle Johnson, a senior outfielder who is the No. 1 hitter on the Boilermakers squad. Plus, there was a spring women’s volleyball tournament in Indiana. After surgery, Renee Rennie said Savannah’s recovery time will be around three months. Doctors want to monitor Savannah closely, so she’ll have to stay in Indianapolis. While Savannah was able to return to Cal in the fall for the volleyball season, she was forced to redshirt. The best-case scenario after surgery is a 100 percent recovery and a return to the team. The goal is to be back at Cal in the fall and be playing late in a season that ends in November or December. Feller said there is a spot on the Bears for Savannah when she’s ready. “When our doctors first told me of Savannah’s illness, I asked when she could be back,” Feller said. “Then Renee and Bill (Savannah’s father) were a little more direct. “We want her around our program, no matter what. First, we want her as a player. Two, we want her as part of the team. If that means being by my side on the bench until

she’s ready, great. “Savannah has some really good friends on this team. The girls have face time with her at training table. It’s really uplifting.” One of Savannah’s best friends at Cal is sophomore outside hitter Ashten Smith-Gooden from Los Osos High in Rancho Cucamonga. The 6-foot-1 Smith-Gooden is a Type 1 diabetic and competes with an insulin pump strapped to her. “I never played with Savannah, but I played against her a lot in club ball,” Smith-Gooden said. “She’s one of the best I’ve ever seen. She’s athletic, strong and a dynamic leader. “Because of what I’ve been through, I made it my goal to make Savannah feel as normal as possible. What 18-19-year-old volleyball player hears she needs a new liver? “People felt sorry for me, but I’ve been dealing with diabetes since age 7. And I’ve managed it well. “My deal was nothing compared to Savannah. Hers was a shock. So I was going to help her in anyway I could. “I know when she puts her mind to it, she’ll accomplish her goal.” That goal is to be back on the floor and help the Cal Bears reach the NCAA Tournament.

‘Dr. Bill’s Comedy Hypnosis Show’ to raise funds for track and field team Event will be held April 23 at CCA BY KAREN BILLING armel Valley hypnotist Dr. Bill Anapoell uses his method of rapidly-induced trances to both cure and entertain. Recently, he was hypnotizing a client over FaceTime to melt away fears and anxiety before the SAT test and next week he will be performing on stage in front of a hopefully large crowd at Canyon Crest Academy. “Dr. Bill’s Comedy Hypnosis Show” will be held on Saturday, April 23 at 7 p.m. in CCA’s Proscenium Theater. The show is sponsored by the CCA Foundation and will benefit the CCA track and field team. Dr. Bill is hoping for a great turnout at CCA — during the show he will explain the hypnosis process, crank the music and bring people up on stage to bring them deeper and down, “sloped down and melting away” and then perform a variety of fun routines and skits with them. As always, his shows are a fun, family-friendly, good time. Anapoell has been a resident of Carmel Valley for 20 years. His oldest son is a CCA graduate, his middle child is a junior at CCA and his daughter will be a freshman next year. “I think CCA is a really unique

C

school and we’re lucky to have it in the area,” Anapoell said. “They’ve taken lots of care to provide the students with amazing facilities and opportunities.” Anapoell is an associate clinical professor of medicine at UC San Diego and works at Scripps Mercy as a hospitalist. Prior to his current position, he spent nine years in private practice internal medicine in San Diego. His fascination with hypnotism began at a young age. “When I was a kid I got hypnotized at age 12 at a performance and I thought it was amazing,” Anapoell said. “I always wanted to learn how to do it.” He remembers being inspired watching the performances of Dr. Michael Dean, a longtime San Diego entertainer and hypnotist who died last year at the age of 90. “He hypnotized half of San Diego,” marveled Anapoell. As his life took off, his hypnotist dreams went deeper and down into Anapoell’s mind but about five years ago he became determined to fulfill his long-held goal and to perform at his son’s Grad Nite. Five-hundred hours of training courses later, Anapoell was doing hypnotherapy for clients as well as performing in stage shows. He said learning hypnotism was a lot about learning human behaviors,

case, a person was afraid to drive over bridges and needed help to be able to get to a new job in Coronado. With no background in performance or theater, Anapoell was never truly comfortable being on stage. Performing was just something he learned to focus his mind on. Since he started he has done a lot of public speaking, lectures and performances — one of his biggest audiences was an 800-person conference in Orange County. He’s done street hypnosis in Las Vegas and has performed at many high school grad nites, including his son’s at CCA two years ago. “There are people who want to be in the show so they play along,” Anapoell said. “But I want people to really be in hypnosis, in an altered state.” He said there are always people who resist letting the hypnosis process happen through self talk, distracting themselves with thinking or just not listening to what he is saying. But if you really decide to listen and follow what Dr. Bill says, there’s no reason you won’t be hypnotized. And you will be entertained .Tickets can be bought online at goo.gl/gwMgS9 or at Dr. Bill’s website www.sdhypnotist.com. Videos of previous shows can be seen on his Facebook page, Dr. Bill's Comedy Hypnosis.

Hypnotist Dr. Bill Anapoell will perform at Canyon Crest Academy on April 23. mind, motivations and all the things that keep people from being their best selves. He created his own unique blend of “rapid hypnotic techniques, neuro-linguistic programming and medical science.” “Our own human experience has taught us time and again that we can think ourselves sick…we can get ourselves worked up over a situation to the point that we are upset, paralyzed with fear, or reduced to tears,” Anapoell writes on his website sdhypnotist.com. “Fortunately, science has shown us that we can also think ourselves healthy. By entering the hypnotic state, we can reframe our thought processes to achieve goals, reduce anxiety and melt away fears.”

Anapoell said he uses hypnosis all the time at Scripps Mercy to help ease the nerves of patients, in just six or seven minutes of hypnotic induction. For clients, he uses hypnotherapy to help with phobias, pain, people anxious about heading into surgery and people looking to lose weight, stop smoking or prepare for an athletic event. Anapoell said it’s useful to be trained in both the therapeutic and performance sides of hypnosis because the second a hypnotist gets off stage they are bombarded with questions and requests for help on a multitude of issues. Anapoell said he has helped treat a wide variety of issues, some you might never even think of. In one

Shed a Light Foundation focuses spotlight on mental illness

Local couple working with Scripps Behavorial Health to improve lives BY JOE TASH A Rancho Santa Fe couple is hoping their personal story of tragedy — losing their son to severe mental illness — can help create a happier ending for the stories of others afflicted by the condition. “It’s a story with a new beginning, and no end yet,” said Jim Bohlander, whose son, Barry, took his own life in 2005 at age 25 after suffering from acute schizophrenia for five years. Bohlander and his wife, Sheryl, have launched the Shed a Light Foundation, which is dedicated to improving the lives of those with mental illness, and also raising awareness about the impacts of mental illness on individuals and families. The Bohlanders are working with Scripps Behavioral Health, as well as carrying out other efforts, to provide resources and support for the mentally ill. On Wednesday, April 6, they hosted a reception at the Bridges clubhouse in Rancho Santa Fe with Scripps doctors and staff, in an effort to get out the word about their fundraising efforts. Among their initiatives is helping Scripps raise the $220,000 per year needed to pay for a dedicated bed at

50%

a residential treatment center near Balboa Park, where patients can stay temporarily and receive care after leaving a psychiatric hospital, but before they are ready to live on their own or with family. Another program they have supported is called A-Visions. Scripps runs the vocational training program for mentally ill people who have been stabilized through treatment, and then places them in jobs within the Scripps Health system. Currently, 22 people are working in dietary, clerical and administrative positions, officials said. The Bohlanders’ fund was set up under the umbrella of the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation, which manages its assets. Jim Bohlander became emotional when he talked about his son, who began to manifest signs of mental illness in his late teens. Before that, said Jim Bohlander, his son “had the world on a string. He was just the kid you thought would take over the world.” The couple was living in Miami when Barry went off to college in pursuit of an engineering degree. But a year or so later, they got a call from police in Louisiana, who told them

Shed A Light Foundation co-founders Sheryl and Jim Bohlander Barry had suffered a psychotic episode and been hospitalized. He was later diagnosed with acute schizophrenia. For five years, Jim Bohlander said, his family struggled to help Barry by finding him treatment options, and trying to keep him on stabilizing medication. But the drugs had severe side effects, and his son would stop taking them. He battled demons such as a cacaphony of voices in his head. He finally succumbed, but before he died, said Jim Bohlander, his son wrote a poem, which ended with the line, “I am still me.” “I want to help these Barrys out there. They are special people,” Jim

Bohlander said. Among the speakers at the reception was Dr. Jerry Gold, administrator of the Scripps Behavioral Health program. Gold said he and his colleagues are working to expand opportunities for those suffering from mental illness, from more treatment options outside of a hospital setting, to reducing the stigma that prevents those being treated for mental illness from pursuing meaningful activities, such as employment,. Kevin Wilson, who oversees Scripps A-Vision training and employment program, said, “It truly works. They have a tremendous drive to succeed. They love coming to

work.” After the Bohlanders moved to Rancho Santa Fe three and a half years ago, they began supporting Scripps Behavioral Health, and decided to revive their foundation late last year with the goal of raising money for the dedicated treatment bed in the Balboa Park facility. Through their foundation, they are also seeking to support other mental health treatment facilities, whether it means buying a needed vehicle or other piece of equipment, collecting clothes for patients to wear for job interviews, or assembling toiletry kits to make patients more comfortable during hospital stays, said Sheryl Bohlander. The foundation’s slogan is “providing care, security and hope for the mentally ill,” she said. “We just really want to help people with mental illness. It’s so prevalent, it’s so underserved,” she said. “It’s time people start taking care of this segment of society.” The couple’s big dream, they said, is to build a stand-alone treatment facility. “That’s going to be years down the road,” Sheryl Bohlander said.

Mama’s Day event brings nourishment to those in need BY KAREN BILLING Mama’s Kitchen will host the original San Diego tasting event, the 25th annual Mama’s Day on Friday, May 6 at the Hyatt Regency La Jolla at Aventine. The fundraising event, held the Friday evening before Mother’s Day, features more than 55 chefs from San Diego’s finest restaurants, hotels and catering companies who graciously prepare delicious samples. Participating eateries this year include Snooze, Fig Tree Café, Saltbox, Solace and the Moonlight Lounge, Waypoint Public, Duke’s La Jolla, Hash House A Go Go, Cravory Cookies, Mia Francesca Del Mar, Betty’s Pie Whole, The Red Door and many more. The tasting event helps to raise critical funds for Mama’s Kitchen’s mission to deliver hot, nutrition-specific meals free of charge to local men, women, and children affected by AIDS or cancer. Last year, the event raised $176,000, which provided 57,680 home-delivered meals. Mama’s Kitchen’s mission, like some of the best recipes, is simple and uncomplicated. “These people end up with debilitating disease and in order to stay on a healthy path, it’s critical for them to be eating nutritious food,” said event co-chair Dana Black, a Rancho Santa Fe resident who serves on the board of directors at Mama’s Kitchen. The event includes a silent auction with emcee Clint Bell leading the night, reminding attendees why they are all out for the evening. A Mama’s Kitchen client will also share their story. Event VIP tickets include early entry and an exclusive dining section with a hosted bar

Brandon and Dana Black are co-chairs of the Mama’s Day event for Mama’s Kitchen. and a cooking demonstration with “Sam the Cooking Guy,” a longtime Mama’s Kitchen supporter. The event is presented by Nordstrom and hosted by Sycuan Casino. Black has lived in Rancho Santa Fe for three years. She has been a San Diego resident for 20 years, starting in Poway and steadily migrating west; her last move was the six miles between Del Sur and Rancho Santa Fe. Black worked as an analytic marketing manager before taking time off to raise her three children. She decided to make a career change and went back to school at the

University of San Diego (USD) to get her master’s degree in nonprofit leadership and management. After graduating in May 2014, she went into consulting. Black learned of Mama’s Kitchen while at USD — Mama’s Kitchen was a part of the “pracademia” program, where students essentially do pro-bono work for nonprofits in the community while in school. Black also served alongside Mama’s Kitchen’s executive director Alberto Cortés on the USD Institute for Nonprofit Education and Research advisory board. Cortés approached Black after she graduated knowing that in the past she had only served on advisory boards and was looking for a chance to serve on a governing board for a grassroots group. “Mama’s Kitchen has been in San Diego for 20 years but it is really community-based. Eight-hundred volunteers actively deliver meals every year and board members are very involved in the process, I felt like it fit with what I was looking for,” Black said. Mama’s Kitchen delivers three meals a day, seven days a week free of charge, even on holidays. Clients are referred to the organization by medical providers or caseworkers. “What always surprises me is the community need, that there are people that are struggling. We have a responsibility to make our community the best that it can be, which means reaching out to help,” Black said. “Everyone is entitled to the basic necessities of life.” When Mama’s Kitchen expanded its services to cancer patients, they found that

while there were a lot of programs for seniors, there were not a lot of services for individuals under the age of 60. They serve a lot of women with breast cancer who are struggling to cook, work, go to chemotherapy and care for their children. While very active on the board, Black does deliver meals periodically and spent one Thanksgiving two years ago delivering meals with her then 16-year-old son Trevor. The pair delivered meals to seven clients in the Oceanside area over the course of four hours. The experience had a big impact on her son, who couldn’t believe the way some people had to live. It made an impact on Black too, when one woman with cancer was so happy just to have someone to talk to. They were feeding a different need as well. “You feel, in that moment, ‘I know I’m doing something good’. It’s amazing and the people are extremely thankful,” Black said. In 2015, Mama’s Kitchen delivered 284,925 meals to 394 San Diegans affected by HIV/AIDS; 70,602 meals to 196 San Diegans affected by cancer; and 46,584 meals to 106 children whose parents were affected by HIV/AIDS or cancer. On Wednesday, March 30, Mama’s Kitchen delivered its 8 millionth meal with the help of San Diego County Supervisor Ron Roberts. For over 25 years, Mama’s Kitchen has never turned anyone away who is eligible for services nor has it maintained a waiting list. General admission tickets are $150, VIP tickets are $250. The event begins at 6:30 p.m. for general admission and 5:30 p.m. for VIP. For tickets or more information, visit mamaskitchen.org.

Del Mar faces price increase for Chrome BY JEFF NAHILL The price tag has been set for California Chrome to run in Del Mar’s Pacific Classic this summer: $2 million. “The Pacific Classic is on our agenda,” said Art Sherman, California Chrome’s trainer, “but we hope they raise the purse to $2 million. That would get us there. “There are a lot of other tracks out there that want us.” The Grade I Pacific Classic, scheduled for Aug. 20, has a purse of $1 million. A purse increase would take some negotiating with the Thoroughbred Owners of California. “The horse is certainly worth it,” said Joe Harper, president and CEO of Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. “Now the question is whether we can afford it. We’ll have to see. We’d love to have him. Maybe I can get Art down to $1.5 million.” California Chrome is coming off a victory last month in the $10 million Dubai World Cup, his third win in as many starts this year. The 5-year-old horse was named Horse of the Year in 2014 after winning the Kentucky Derby and Preakness as a 3-year-old. He sealed the title that November with a victory in the Hollywood Derby on Del Mar’s Jimmy Durante Turf Course. His only other races at Del Mar came the previous year on the track’s old synthetic surface: He won the

California Chrome from the U.S. ridden by Victor Espinoza crosses the finish line to win the U.S. $ 10,000,000 Dubai World Cup horse racing at the Meydan Racecourse in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Saturday, March 26, 2016. Graduation Stakes before finishing sixth in the Del Mar Futurity. California Chrome is currently the No. 1 -ranked thoroughbred in the country, if not the world, after his win in Dubai. Ever since the race, Del Mar representatives have been talking to Sherman and his owners about running at the seaside oval.

“Absolutely, he’s the best handicap horse in the country,” said Sherman, who once trained horses for Harper. “I think this is going to be a really big year for him, and it already has been, but it could be even more.” The Chrome camp has stated its ultimate goal is the Breeders’ Cup Classic at Santa Anita and that the horse would

only run maybe two or three times the rest of the year. Right now, California Chrome is on a farm in Kentucky for some rest and relaxation. “I’m anxious to get him back,” said Sherman, who added he thinks the horse will return to his barn at Los Alamitos Race Course on or about May 7. “I’ve seen some pictures of him and he looks like he has put some weight back on.” Sherman said he is unsure if Chrome would need a prep race going into the 1 1/4-mile Pacific Classic. Del Mar officials have talked to Sherman about possibly running in the 1 1/16-mile San Diego Handicap on July 23. Sherman brought up the possibility of prepping on the Del Mar turf course in the 1 1/8-mile Eddie Read on July 17. “He’s run and won on that grass course before,” said Sherman. “I do want to get him back here and see where we are with him.” So Del Mar could end getting a 2-for-1 deal with Chrome. The Pacific Classic could shape up as the top race this summer nationwide. The brilliant mare mare Beholder, who beat the boys in last year’s Pacific Classic, has returned to training and is being pointed for a comeback race next month at Santa Anita. Her connections are also expected to entertain thoughts of a SEE CHROME, A20

Dad’s mission: Help other parents through loss BY PAM KRAGEN On Aug. 9, 2008, Casey Gauntt became a member of a club that no parent ever wants to join. Early that morning, the Solana Beach attorney’s 24-year-old son, Jimmy, was struck by a car and killed. The devastating loss carved a deep wound that will never heal, but the 66-year-old Gauntt said he now sees that, in some ways, Jimmy’s death was a gift. It strengthened Gauntt’s 43-year marriage with wife Hilary, and it deepened his spirituality. It also changed him from a man once walled off from his emotions into one who will go above and beyond to help others in the “club.” Gauntt is the co-founder of The Fraternity, a 3-year-old support group for North County dads who have lost children. He runs a website (writemesomethingbeautiful. com) filled with stories by parents, helpful advice and resources for those coping with loss. And he recently published a memoir on his journey back from the abyss. He and Hilary have also awarded more than $60,000 in scholarships in their son’s name at Torrey Pines High School, Jimmy’s alma mater. “Your life changes forever when you lose a child,” Gauntt said. “Our daughter Brittany said it best, that when Jimmy died, my heart wasn’t broken, it broke open. But that allowed a lot to come in. It led me to become more caring, more open with my feelings and more compassionate to others.” Because of a tragedy in his past, Gauntt said he wasn’t emotionally equipped to deal with the news that August morning when a

GAUNTT FAMILY

Jimmy Gauntt was struck by a car and killed in 2008. University of Southern California, his aloof and unemotional father committed suicide in his Chicago office. He left no note for his family and Gauntt said his mother dealt with the tragedy by hushing it up and moving on. He felt abandoned, angry and incapable of processing the details of death. “I was never trained to deal with it. It made me horribly uncomfortable. I was so bad about it that when my dentist lost his 4-year-old son, my way of dealing with it was changing dentists,” Gauntt said. But after Jimmy died, his family began to feel his spiritual presence in dozens of unexpected ways: a familiar face on a passing stranger, a mysterious phone call, prophetic dreams, chance meetings and old photos and cards turning up on significant dates. Then in

woman from the county Medical Examiner’s Office showed up on their doorstep. Jimmy, an aspiring screenwriter who lived in Los Angeles, was home for the weekend and had gone to visit a friend in Rancho Santa Fe the evening before. Rather than drive home after a few drinks, he decided to walk back on the dark, shoulderless Del Dios Highway. A young driver swerved to avoid him and overturned his car, accidentally striking Jimmy. Moments later, a second driver ran over Jimmy’s body and sped off. Gauntt said he went “deep into the tank” after his son’s death because he’d never learned to express his emotions. When Gauntt was a 20-year-old sophomore at the

Del Mar & La Costa/Carlsbad

late 2008, Gauntt received a life-changing letter in the mail. In 1968, Gauntt had spent a summer working construction at a West Virginia mining camp. His father wrote him a letter expressing for the first and only time his pride, love and hopes for his son’s future. But the letter was never delivered. Forty years later, an old acquaintance discovered the letter in a box of old camp paperwork and tracked Gauntt down. Gauntt said it was as if his father and his son were reaching out together, across four decades, to comfort him. “It arrived when I was in the darkest place and it hit me like an electric shock,” he said. “Right away, I knew it wasn’t just for me. I was supposed to share it.” He and his wife moved quickly to honor their son’s memory in a public way. On the morning of Jimmy’s death, the Gauntt family had planned a walk at the San Elijo Lagoon, so the following year they endowed a memorial bench along the trail. In 2009, they established the Jimmy Gauntt Memorial Scholarship at Torrey Pines High. And in 2010, they were honored to take part in the inaugural “Jimmy” awards at USC, which the English department established in his name to honor inspiring graduates like himself. Although Jimmy — with five plays and six screenplays to his credit — had been the writer in the family, Gauntt picked up the pen in his place. He first wrote the story of the letter, then other stories followed. In 2011, he launched the website to share his SEE LOSS, A22

Students learn the art of filmmaking during a symposium, which is part of the Encinitas Student Film Festival.

Encinitas Student Film Festival coming to La Paloma BY JARED WHITLOCK The red carpet will be rolled out for the Encinitas Student Film Festival on May 15 at La Paloma Theater. During the special event, fledgling filmmakers will get the chance to see their short films on the big screen, with an awards ceremony recognizing top films in various categories. A winning film will be reviewed by Hollywood screenwriter and director Jordan Roberts, who will share his comments at the screening. Another unique aspect of the festival is that students can take part in a filmmaking symposium from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on April 23 at the Encinitas

Community Center. Roberts, known for his work on “March of the Penguins” and “Around the Bend,” will be among the A-List talent teaching students the art of filmmaking. There will be workshops covering major filmmaking disciplines. In addition, veteran filmmakers will address the students, and they’ll shoot two scenes with drastically different moods. “We see this as a way to encourage students’ creativity, empowering them,” said Francine Filsinger, producer of the Encinitas Student Film Festival. She noted about 100 students are expected at the symposium. The free festival and symposium are

open to grades 9-16 in accredited San Diego schools, as well as students in college and universities. Registration for the symposium will be open until the day of the April 23 event, though earlier registration is encouraged. The deadline to enter films for the festival is May 2. Register and learn more at www.encinitasstudentfilmfestival.com. The Encinitas Student Film Festival debuted in 2014, but didn’t take place last year due to a lack of funding. It resumed this year thanks to grant money coming through, according to Filsinger. Filsinger, who is organizing the festival, said she was blown away by the caliber of student films in 2014.

OUR READERS WRITE Carmel Valley Needs a Senior Center With all the changes in our community of Carmel Valley over the last 30 years, with myself being one of many original homeowners, I have come to realize that I would like to grow old in the community I call home. We have all the amenities of a community with the exception of a senior center with activities and within walking or public transit for the future. We have parks for children and families, but nothing for active seniors. Even Kilroy’s attempt to change our community still does not address the lack of public transit planned for the future. We aging baby boomers need a place to fit in. Yes, we have a library and yes we have a recreation center to enjoy both swimming and exercise classes, however, other communities have such a facility, we do not. How do we start the process to find public or private land for a Senior Center? How did other communities get theirs? Isn’t it about time we have a discussion? My present age is 65, semi-retired and I work out of my home. My husband and I are original homeowners in the Carmel Del Mar area since 1985. I am a past Planning Board member, was active in the early development of the Carmel Valley Library, Community Recreation Center and other public and private development with in our area. I am not alone; other people my age have given or are currently serving in various volunteer positions to make Carmel Valley the great place that it is to live. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have a place for lectures, exercise, listen to music, play cards and connect with others of similar age in the future? What do 92-year-old seniors that live in their homes do to pass the day? They are lonely and not in engaged in life with others; just watching everyone around them go on with their lives. Wouldn’t it be great for them to be engaged with others too? There is a definite need that a Senior Center can offer and the wheels of progress through the City of San Diego will go at a slow snail’s pace. Shouldn’t we start the process now. Karen Cody, Carmel Valley

Del Mar Short-Term Vacation Rentals are a Threat to Our Residential Zone Next door to you is a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with pool. It is occupied by a family of four you know. You share small talk from time to time. You know their kids. They know your kids. You both hear each other yell, laugh, and entertain from time to time. They sell, and the people purchasing inform you that they plan on using this home as a STR (short-term rental). How do you respond? That communities throughout Southern California are struggling with how to address STRs is evidence that a significant portion of these communities are negatively impacted by this issue. Anyone arguing that a STR in a residential zone is not a commercial venture is plainly incorrect. Next door to our home is a 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with pool advertised on VRBO at $575 per night (five- night minimum). The absentee owners have purchased it as an investment that can generate $2,875 every five days. This business creates significant revenue while producing issues that have absolutely changed my families’ experience within the neighborhood in which we have long resided. I have no desire to sell our home. However, if I were to put it on the market, I would certainly have to disclose that the home next door is a STR. Arguably, the value of my home to a family seeking to purchase a home and reside full time in Del Mar is compromised. In contrast, those looking to purchase a second or third property as an investment might be encouraged to purchase my home to use as a STR. One fewer neighbor to object to a STR, and one fewer single family home occupied by a family invested in the community. The community begins to change from the inside out. Not a concern if you support STRs. Good Neighbor Policies are touted as a way to curtail STR behaviors deemed disruptive. However, the responsibility of policing begins with the residents impacted by the non-compliant behavior. While I acknowledge that this is a first-world problem, it is very stressful to police multiple new “neighbors,” who are doing nothing other than enjoying their vacation in a short-term residential hotel located in one’s neighborhood.

Del Mar is faced with a transformative community issue. A STR opening next to one’s home will certainly create a very different quality, quantity, and intensity of home use often at odds with a mellow neighborhood vibe. As a long-term year around resident, I urge our city council and citizens and to say No to STRs in our residential neighborhoods. Scott Renner and Family, Del Mar

Help Residents of Del Mar Get Right to Vote on Watermark and Other Similar Projects The proposed 48-family dwelling compound of high density eliminates our zoning laws which maintain height limitations, set-backs, open space, mitigation considerations to protect adjacent fellow residents and their residential neighborhoods, adjacent natural environment and wild life, bluff areas, Torrey pines, etc., on the corner lot of our northern gateway. At this time, approval by only three city council members could change the character of our community and zoning laws, thereby degrading our internationally-renowned, village-like beach community, which we cherish. Encinitas enacted right for public vote. Del Mar did the same with Prop B. 1986, but unfortunately only covered downtown. Del Mar residents are seeking signatures from Del Mar residents in order to place our right to public vote on the November ballot. Please expect your neighbors to share information and ask for your signature/support. We are all concerned. Petition signing — we will also be located downtown for residents to come and sign. Very important — we need everyone’s help ASAP, please contact us, so you can help be part and gather signatures.

FROM FAIR, A1 Solana Beach … and I respect the neighboring communities, we have a broader scope,” said board member Lisa Barkett, noting that she represents all San Diego County residents. “Our allegiance can’t be to one certain group.” The board unanimously approved the contract with Kaaboo Del Mar LLC, which would bring the festival to the fairgrounds for the next five years, with up to five one-year extensions. The board voted 8-0 with board member Kathlyn Mead absent, although she, too, expressed her support in a letter. Under the contract, event organizers will pay is $1.15 million annually to lease the fairgrounds and cover other expenses, with potential bonuses for the fairgrounds based on festival attendance. The organizers will also cover security and medical personnel. “We’re anticipating that within the first five years of the agreement, the fairground will net in the neighborhood of $5 million,” said fairgrounds CEO and general manager Tim Fennell. “Over the course of 10 years, we anticipate that it will be $10 million. I think that’s a conservative number.” KAABOO founder and CEO Bryan Gordon said the event will continue to benefit the fairgrounds, surrounding communities and the rest of San Diego County. More than 50,000 people attended the first-ever KAABOO, which Gordon said Rolling Stone named one of the top five festivals in the country last year. The event generated approximately 2,000 jobs and between $2 million to $3 million in “direct economic benefit” to San Diego County, he said. Organizers also donated more than $72,000 to local charities last year and expect to donate $144,000 this year. “We’ve created, already, a leading cultural live entertainment event in this region after only one year,” Gordon said. “In two to three years, we’re very confident this will be a leading cultural and live entertainment event in the country, and in five years, we’re confident this will be a leading cultural and live entertainment event in the world. That’s impact.” More than a dozen people spoke in support of the event. The organizers also submitted more than 80 letters from local businesses, organizations and community members in support of KAABOO. “In my entire life, my most favorite event that has ever happened on these grounds, is KAABOO,” said one San Diego native who currently lives in Solana Beach. “It’s an upscale, beautiful, cultural event — world-class. I would hate to see it leave this area. I think we benefit from it greatly.” “KAABOO, by far, has been the best event, to date that I’ve attended,” agreed a Del Mar resident. “It was a fantastic experience.” “Many Solana Beach residents, including myself, did have some concerns about the festival, including traffic, parking, security, noise, littering,” admitted one Solana Beach resident. “But after KAABOO concluded last September, everyone that I spoke with in my community was pleasantly surprised at how smoothly everything went.” Still, KAABOO did not go smoothly for everyone last year. Del Mar officials said they received a total of 43 phone calls and emails regarding noise last year, with many of the complaints coming from the communities of Carmel Valley and Del Mar Heights. The event organizers set up a hotline, which received 91 calls. KAABOO has to adhere to Del Mar’s noise ordinance. “To further stimulate compliance to the noise ordinance, for the KAABOO festival only, the noise ordinance has been further defined and fines associated to it have been increased to a greater level than other events held at the fairgrounds,” the staff report states. Organizers will face fines of at least $1,000 if they violate sound level limits. Outdoor amplified music must cease by 10 p.m. each day of the festival and at 9 p.m. on Sunday evening. Indoor amplified music can be performed on Friday and Saturday night after 10 p.m. and prior to 2:30 a.m. provided that it complies with the noise ordinance. Jim Dorroh, production manager for KAABOO, explained that noise will be monitored by sound experts. This year, organizers will control the sound levels that artists produce. Artists will also be contractually obligated to abide by noise levels, he said. “We’re going to turn it down,” Dorroh said. “At the end of the day, we control the knob.” “I want to applaud you for learning from last year’s experience,” board member Frederick Schenk said in response. “I’m glad to hear that this year you not only have your hand on the knob, but you really have your finger on the pulse of what this community’s looking for.”

Do You Want to Know How Much Your Water Bills Will Really Increase? The eight-page “Notice of Public Hearing Regarding Proposed Rate Increases for Water Service Charges” mailed out last week to all Santa Fe Irrigation District customers did not provide a comparison of proposed percentage increases. A brief review of the Cost of Service Study reveals percentages ranging from increases of 46.8 percent (those using 5 units or less) to actual reductions of –4.6 percent for approximately one-third of all Single Family Residences. The SFID mailing was not transparent in informing customers with lots larger than standard city size, (Rancho Santa Fe, Fairbanks Ranch, Sun Valley area, Montecillo, and northeastern Solana Beach), that they could easily find their water bills increase by 15 percent - 20 percent or more in

FROM CIVIL, A1 hopefully, even beyond the region.” An international leader in mediation instruction and conflict resolution, San Diego-based NCRC provides the resources, training and expertise to help people, organizations and communities around the world manage and solve conflicts with civility. The University of San Diego Law Center and the San Diego County Bar Association founded the organization in 1983. Since then, NCRC has managed more than 20,000 cases. Mayor Sherryl Parks proposed a code of civil discourse after she attended a training program hosted by NCRC. Coincidentally, Sandvik and Freeman had also been discussing how to keep public dialogue productive. “From small things to big things, some things just seem to get people riled up,” said Freeman, who has lived in Del Mar for 11 years. Spearheaded by Parks and Councilman Dwight Worden, “Civility Works: The Del Mar Code of Civil Discourse,” was crafted. The one-page code is a pledge for inclusive and respectful communication practices that foster fruitful dialogue and promote progress. “Together we will: promote inclusion, listen to understand,

each of the three fiscal years for a combined increase of 45 percent - 60 percent or more. The Rancho Santa Fe Association website is posting a one-page summary of proposed percentage rate impacts, along with a simple written protest form. As a recent article in the Review noted, 50 percent of the customers, or 3,253 written protests, are required to block the proposed rate increases. Readers who do not have access to the RSF Association website can find similar information under “Water” articles at www.rsfpost.com. SFID customers — take a few minutes to understand the actual three-year financial impacts of the proposed rates, and then consider if you wish to exercise your rights guaranteed in the California Constitution and submit a written protest before May 19, 2016. The General Manager of the SFID has indicated the SFID will not do a mailing, completely at the expense of someone other than the SFID, which would provide you, the customer, with information showing you exactly how much your water bill will be.

Classic would be an amazing race. It would be a track operator’s dream. I think if they’re willing to do it, there’s a deal to be made.” Last year, the Pacific Classic had its lowest all-time attendance as the race was held on a Saturday against a Padres’ home game and Chargers’ exhibition game on television. Even though the race is on a Saturday this year against the same competition, Del Mar thinks California Chrome alone would increase attendance immensely.

“It would be huge,” said Tom Robbins, Del Mar’s executive vice president, racing and industry relations. “California Chrome’s popularity is second to none. He brings a lot of people and enthusiasm no matter where he runs. It would be massive at Del Mar. We are keeping our fingers crossed and we’re doing everything we can to get him to stay in California to race.” Jeff Nahill is a writer for the San Diego Union-Tribune.

show respect, be clear and fair, focus on the issue,” the code states. As the city worked on the code, Sandvik and Freeman considered how they could help the community. “She (Parks) came back and wanted to work with it on the city level, and Barbara and I wanted to work with it on the citizen level, so it was sort of a process that just unfolded very quickly and very interestingly,” said Sandvik, who bought her home in 1997 and has lived in Del Mar since 2003. “It had its own energy.” Now that the code has been adopted, it will be posted on the city’s website, in public meeting rooms and included in meeting agendas. “These principles are critical to remind everyone when they’re in the heat of the battle to remain respectful, focus in on the issue, be clear and fair,” Dinkin said. “By following these principles, it allows for a much more productive dialogue, and hopefully, a much more attainable result.” To further promote the city’s new code, community members are invited to participate in NCRC’s “Art of Inclusive Communication” course, which teaches participants how to practice civil discourse, how to find common ground, and how to gain the communication skills needed to move forward. Led by Lisa Maxwell, NCRC’s director of

training, the hands-on, half-day sessions can accommodate up to 24 people at a fee of $2,500. Sandvik and Freeman are funding three sessions and coordinating invitations. They’ve invited residents by mail, email and word-of-mouth. “We’re really hoping that people that are on all sides of different kinds of issues will be willing to come,” Sandvik said. “The idea is that we can move toward a little bit of a culture shift.” Trainings will be held from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. April 20 at Pacifica Del Mar, from 5 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. April 21 at Searsucker, and from noon to 3:30 p.m. April 24 at Fairbanks Ranch Country Club. To register, contact Hanna Venizelos at 619-238-2400 ext. 237 or hvenizelos@ncrconline.com. “It’s an opportunity to learn essential skills to improve the community, but it’s also a time to spend with their neighbors and others in the community in an environment that’s conducive to promoting discussion and interaction,” Dinkin said. Depending on public interest, additional trainings could be available in the future, Sandvik and Freeman said. The Del Mar Foundation has also offered to fund a course for the chairs of city advisory committees and committee support staff. The training session is set for May.

Solana Ranch Family STREAM Night

O

ver 100 Solana Ranch students came out to celebrate Family STREAM Night on March 30. Families engaged in a multitude of mind-stimulating activities ranging from Bristlebots to looking under the microscope. The fun didn't stop there. Families kept the fun going at home with take home projects as seen from Dr. Mafong's Tweet. The night was quoted by many to be the best of its kind to date. The event was organized by Josephine Piranio, Solana Ranch STREAM teacher and funded through the Solana Beach Schools Foundation. Solana Ranch is committed to Inspiring Greatness In Tomorrow's Leaders and consistently looks for ways to provide integration of STEM into students curriculum.

FROM ROSANNE HOLLIDAY, A2 When she suspected she was pregnant with her second baby in 1973, she stopped by one of Planned Parenthood’s clinics for a test on her way home from work. “I was so excited when Planned Parenthood called to say the test was positive,” Holliday recalled. “The woman on the phone said, ‘Do you know what positive means?’ I realized that she was used to giving bad news.” After she gave birth to her daughter Katherine, Holliday continued to work at Southwestern College. “I loved my job so much, so I continued teaching,” she said. “I figured I could do that.” By 1973, the Holliday family had moved to Del Mar. Holliday had to drive to the Chula Vista campus, where she worked about 20 hours a week, often with two to three hours between classes. As a working and nursing mother, she brought Katherine and her babysitter to work so that she could nurse and spend time with her daughter during her breaks. But before long, the president of the college confronted her about the situation. The College Board of Trustees passed a policy on April 1, 1974, that no employee could have a minor child on campus while they were on duty, even if the child was in the care of another adult. Media across the country covered the story, including the New York Times. “I kind of became a cause and I really

didn’t want to,” Holliday said. Holliday eventually presented her case before the state board, which determined that Katherine’s presence on campus had not affected her teaching. However, the policy, stayed in place. “It was ruled that I was professional, but the policy remained,” she recalled. “By that time, I wasn’t taking Katherine with me anymore because she was a year old. “I learned a lot,” Holliday added. “I really understood sexism, which I don’t think I did before.” She remembered that men on the board had suggested taking a leave of absence like their wives had done when they had children. But at that time, she would not have been paid, and she had already taken 10 sick days. Plus, she wanted to work. “That was the time when people were thinking women shouldn’t work and have a baby; you had to make a choice,” Holliday said. “When my son was born, I did quit work, and I missed it. I always worked.” At 14, Holliday worked as a locker girl at the local swimming pool, making 35 cents an hour. In high school, she started in giftwrapping at a department store and worked her way up to assistant to the manager. Still, Holliday continued to teach at Southwestern College for the next 24 years, until she retired. Along with building Southwestern’s child development program, Holliday founded the school’s first day care

FROM BENEFIT, A4 “I felt like it was kind of a combination between a good military-related thing but also a non-military problem — a problem that’s just rampant everywhere,” said Raduenz, who has been a Del Mar resident since 2011. He previously resided in Rancho Bernardo. “It’s a significant issue that I feel really strongly about.” In addition to the fundraiser, Raduenz has already talked with Resnick about other ways he can help the organization. ERASE plans to establish a state board of governors in California, and Resnick has already asked Raduenz to serve on the board. Raduenz has also brainstormed ways his company could collaborate with ERASE, including discounted or donated services. “We have some technologies and capabilities within the company that may help them do what they do,” he said. For example, Merlin Global Services works with wide area surveillance sensors, an array of cameras that can monitor an area over a long period of time.

FROM LOSS, A11 writing and the tributes, films and stories by other parents. One post— a guide to writing a beautiful condolence card for someone who’s lost a child— still gets more than 10,000 visitors a month. Hilary Gauntt said her husband was always a caring man, but not one in touch with his emotions. Jimmy’s death opened the floodgates. “It was a hugely positive transformation,” she said. “Before our son died, he wouldn’t get too close to people. Now, instead of not returning phone calls, he’s the first

center for children of students and faculty. “I pushed and we started a child development center because a lot of women were going back to school in the ’70s,” she said. “I was so proud.” While still a professor, Holliday also became heavily involved with Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest. In 1980, she began serving on the organization’s board of directors, becoming president in 1986. Some of the board decisions that were made during that time directly impacted the long-term direction of the chapter. One of those decisions was to provide abortions, which was a unanimous decision with one abstention. “I still remember that meeting,” she said. “It was an important decision.” During her tenure, Holliday established the chapter’s annual dinner and the international affairs committees. She decided to collaborate with MexFam, the Mexican national family planning organization. After retiring in 1998, Holliday dedicated even more time to Planned Parenthood. She was invited to serve on the board a second time from 2001 to 2007. During that time, she chaired the “Caring For the Future” capital campaign, and her family made a major gift to kick it off. Subsequently, the Planned Parenthood Holliday Family Administration Building in Mission Valley was named in their honor. By the time the campaign concluded

“If something happens, even if it was an hour ago, you can go back and you can see what happened during that time and fast-forward or rewind,” he explained. “So if a child was taken from an area where you had that system set up, you could potentially identify them or at least figure out where they came from or where they went.” Although based in Nashville, ERASE has an office in Florida and will soon have an office in Virginia. The growing organization is also hiring an executive director in the summer. And over the next 12-18 months, Resnick said ERASE is concentrating its efforts in California, Texas and Florida. “Those three states are known for their trafficking throughput,” said Resnick, who also recently hired someone in San Diego who will help lead the organization in the state. “They’re going to try and set up some things in California. They’re just getting started on that,” said Raduenz, who encourages people to get involved with ERASE. “They need all the help they can get.” For more about ERASE or to donate, visit www.erasechildtrafficking.org.

to call. And we are so much closer now. Sometimes we have the most intimate conversations and I wonder what we talked about before. There’s a whole new level of communication that’s deeply emotional.” Helping him on his healing journey were two new friends in grief, Richard Page and Greg Post. Page, a fellow attorney, called Gauntt the day after Jimmy’s death, welcoming him to the “fraternity” of grieving dads. Page’s 18year-old son, Alex, was killed in a 2001 car accident in Solana Beach. Post lost his 18-year-old daughter, Amanda, in a fiery three-vehicle accident

near Bishop in 2011, two years to the day after Jimmy’s death. In 2013, the three men formed the club they call The Fraternity, a group of nine fathers who meet quarterly for drinks, dinner and conversation. Post said the “brothers in pain” communicate together on a level they can’t find with anyone else. “Guys are supposed to be tough, stiff-upper-lip types, but this is an opportunity for us to get together to share our thoughts and feelings,” Post said. “I’ll be the first to admit we cry each day. Some days are harder than others ... But we also have each done a lot to honor our

in 2006, more than $16 million was raised. The chapter established and renovated 14 medical centers, and therefore, doubled the number of patients served. Today, Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest has 19 health centers and serves San Diego, Riverside and Imperial counties. “It’s wonderful to see those changes,” said Holliday, who remains an active volunteer on the philanthropy committee. “It’s one of the nice things about getting older. You get to see progress.” An active member of Del Mar, Holliday also serves on the board and chairs the development committee of Del Mar Community Connections. She is also a founding member of the Del Mar Garden Club and previously chaired the board of the Del Mar Foundation. “Del Mar’s really small,” said Holliday, a grandmother of three. “When you live in Del Mar, it’s a full-time job.” Additionally, Holliday is a founding member of The San Diego Women’s Foundation and Women Give San Diego. She previously served on the board of trustees at Scripps College. Holliday also currently serves as president of the Holliday Family Foundation. Founded in 1999, the family foundation supports a number of organizations, including Planned Parenthood and La Jolla Playhouse. “This is what you do.” Holliday said. “You work to make things better. It’s just what people do.”

FROM HALL, A5 The lease agreement is estimated to not exceed $225,000 in year one, and $275,000 in year two. The council previously approved up to $450,000 for the relocation and interim facility. City Manager Scott Huth said the civic center project is on schedule, with staff expected to move in May and demolition of the existing city hall at 1050 Camino del Mar to take place in June and July. The design team, he said, is working on

children and we like to celebrate the love we have for those we lost as well as our surviving children.” Post has high praise for Gauntt’s writing and his desire to reach out to other fathers facing loss. “Casey is a special guy,” Post said. “He’s unassuming, very modest and very thoughtful. When you meet him you see he has a very good spiritual base and thoughts about life and death.” Gauntt’s latest project is “Suffering is the Only Honest Work,” a self-published memoir about his life, his father, his son and the mystical connectivity of their lives. Jimmy is listed as

construction drawings, which should be available in August, with a construction contract awarded in early fall. “I can’t wait to look at the construction drawings,” said Councilman Don Mosier, noting that the design plans are “incredibly detailed.” “The plans look good,” he added. “The team has sort of caught up to the schedule and we’re moving ahead. The only delays have been caused by the council decisions. The architects have sped up to make up the time we lost.”

co-author because Gauntt said his son’s writings “have blown the doors off our hearts and minds.” The book is named for a poem Jimmy wrote after finishing the 2007 Los Angeles Marathon. Although not a practicing Buddhist, he believed in the triumph of mind over matter and reincarnation. The poem’s final lines have great resonance for Gauntt: “And this death not even a trailhead on the endless loop through ourselves/that when my body lies flat in the tall grass, the rest of me bounds up the hill.” Pam Kragen is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune.


www.delmartimes.net FROM HIKES, A1 action on the rate proposal at a hearing on Thursday, May 19 at 8:30 a.m. at the SFID offices. Customers can submit written comments up until that day. “It’s important for the district to continue to meet your needs but it’s also important for you, as a ratepayer, to understand that rates are going up and you need to weigh in on what you think and understand how it’s going to impact you,” Bardin said. In addition to the May 19 hearing, there will also be three community forums for the public to get more answers and to provide input: Thursday, April 14 at 5:30 p.m.; Wednesday, April 20 at 10 a.m.; and Tuesday, April 26 at 5:30 p.m. All forums will be held at the SFID office (5920 Linea del Cielo, Rancho Santa Fe, 92067). If a majority of the property owners in the district are against the rate increases (about 3,253 written ballots would be required), the board cannot move forward with the increases. Any homeowner can submit a written protest on the proposed rate increases, they just have to provide the location of their parcel by street address, parcel number or customer account number and include a signature of the property owner. Written protests may be submitted to P.O. Box 409, Rancho Santa Fe, 92067 or in person at the SFID office. E-mail or electronic protests are not valid. RSF Association Director Mike Licosati had questions about the settlement agreement reached last year between the Metropolitan Water District and the San Diego County Water Authority. The Metropolitan Water District, the wholesale water provider to the county, was ordered to pay damages of $188.3 million plus interest due to overcharging. “Have you considered, because you’re likely to collect a significant amount of money, to hold off on raising rates? You have a potential huge windfall…It seems like a huge pot of money that’s out there and maybe delaying raising rates now would make more sense,” Licosati said. Bardin said that is not what the district is

NORTH COAST - APRIL 14, 2016 - PAGE A23

doing. He said when all the appeals are completed, which could take a long time, the money will be distributed to all water agencies in the county and at that point they will decide what the funds will be put to use for. The potential windfall that could occur some time in the future has not been a part of the district’s planning picture at this time, Bardin said. “We’ve used up all our reserves, we need to raise our rates now,” Bardin said. RSF resident Lisa Bartlett requested that the district make it easier for customers to object and even proposed a privately-funded mailer which detailed more information about how the increase will impact homeowners with larger properties. “I have absolutely no doubt that the water district needs to raise rates but it seems to me that the larger communities, such as the Covenant, Fairbanks Ranch, some in Sun Valley, Montecito and Solana Beach, are going to be unduly penalized for the rates that I understand are 9 percent this year, 9 percent next year and 9 percent in fiscal year 2018, which means a 27 percent increase,” Bartlett said. Bartett added that it looks like most of the people could actually have a rate increase of close to 11 percent and 25 percent a year. Bardin said he understands no one likes a rate increase but affirmed that the proposed rates are based on detailed engineering, financial and legal evaluations with the assistance of top experts in the fields. The district also went through a thorough cost of service analysis that is available on the district’s website. “I can assure you, the rates are allocated fairly,” Bardin said. “I’m going to advocate that we need the rate increase. If the Association opposes that and the members oppose that, the process is there to oppose it. I would encourage you to be thoughtful about that, read what we’ve got out there and take a look at what does it take to meet the needs, that’s what we’re trying to do. We truly are looking out for your interest and trying to do it the right way.” For more information on the rate increases and upcoming meetings, visit sfidwater.org

‘Democracy in Denim’

COURTESY PHOTO

Students to auction off artwork for Solana Beach Bash BY KRISTINA HOUCK ith support from local shops, student art available for auction at the Solana Beach Bash is off to a great start. One class project has already received a $1,000 bid. “It was a fun project,” said Lisa Marcolongo, a parent volunteer who helped a fifth- and sixth-grade class at Skyline School create an American flag. The 3-by-4-foot flag was crafted out of recycled denim. “It turned out better than we imagined,” she said. “It’s beautiful.” Every class at Skyline and Solana Vista schools in the Solana Beach School District creates an art project that is auctioned off at the annual Solana Beach Bash. Hosted by the Solana Beach Schools Foundation, the event raises funds to bridge the gap between school needs and state funding to enrich the education of students in the district. Proceeds from the Solana

Beach Bash help fund Discovery Labs, which focus on science, technology, research, engineering, arts and math, or STREAM, and supplemental physical education at Skyline and Solana Vista schools. “As part of STREAM, I was able to go to Qualcomm to meet engineers and others who develop new technology,” said Marcolongo’s son, Rocco, a sixth grader at Skyline. “It was a fun day trip. I wouldn't have been able to go if we didn't have a science and technology program that helps us create our own projects. Building things is the best part of STREAM. I also like PE.” As a parent volunteer, Marcolongo has helped with four art projects for the Solana Beach Bash over the years. There were three other moms who helped work on the “Democracy in Denim” project, which was inspired by the upcoming election. Two of the mothers are also married to retired military members.

“We like the flag,” said Marcolongo, whose husband served in the U.S. Marines for 14 years. “We’re always drawn to things that are patriotic.” St. James Thrift Shop in Solana Beach donated more than 50 pairs of jeans for the project. After the flag was assembled, Once Upon A Frame in Cedros Design District volunteered to frame it. The frame is a custom birch wood "floating" frame. “This is truly the community coming together to support our local elementary schools,” Marcolongo said. “A lot of the other businesses in Solana Beach also contributed either in-kind or monetarily to the artwork or the Beach Bash. A lot of the businesses really support our local schools and the students. I just can’t thank them enough.” All the student artwork, including “Democracy in Denim,” is available for auction online at www.solanabeachbash.com

Local doctor heals scars in more than one way through Angel Faces BY KRISTINA HOUCK As a dermatologist and a cosmetic surgeon, Melanie Palm often heals scars. But as a supporter of Angel Faces, a local nonprofit that runs retreats for adolescent girls and young women dealing with burns and traumatic injuries, the Solana Beach doctor helps people heal the scars on their hearts. “Anything we can do to positively impact these girls, who oftentimes experience and live through pretty horrific events, is life changing,” Palm said. “These girls aren’t defined by their burns.” A Cardiff resident, Palm opened her private practice, Art of Skin MD, in Solana Beach in 2012. Someone at one of the laser companies she works with told her about Angel Faces. Founded in 2003, the Encinitas-based organization offers retreats for girls ages 12-18, retreats for women ages 19-29, mentorship programs and post-retreat support programs. As a guest, Palm attended one of the retreats about five years ago. “I was just deeply touched,” she recalled. “I wanted to help these girls.” Palm started off by treating one of the girls who had some reconstructive facial surgeries. She has since volunteered at another

retreat and lectured at various events for Angel Faces. Last year, Palm joined the organization’s board of directors. “I became a doctor because I wanted to help others,” Palm said. “Angel Faces has the ability to fundamentally shape and change a young woman’s life,” she added. “This organization helps them with life skills and shows them their possibilities. The world is their oyster.” A Missouri native, Palm majored in biochemistry and minored in art

history as an undergrad at the University of Missouri-Columbia. At first, Palm thought she would go into orthopedic surgery, but after studying dermatology, she found her path. “I just fell in love with the field,” said Palm, who liked that dermatology involved internal medicine, pathology and surgical procedures. “I loved that it was such a visual field. I also really liked that dermatology is about establishing lifelong relationships with patients so that they can

maintain healthy skin throughout their lifetime.” Palm earned a joint medical and business degree from the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine and the Booth Graduate School of Business. She was awarded Intern of the Year and completed her dermatology residency at Rush Presbyterian-St. Lukes in Chicago, serving as chief resident in her final year of training. Palm later completed an American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery fellowship in La Jolla.

“I enjoy unveiling the best version of somebody, really being on a journey with someone,” said Palm, who also currently serves as a volunteer assistant clinical professor at UC San Diego and an affiliate staff physician at Scripps Encinitas Memorial Hospital. To help raise awareness and funds for Angel Faces’ upcoming annual retreat for girls, Palm is planning a private fundraiser at her home this summer. Additionally, the organization is holding its annual fundraiser, “Evening with Angels,” Sept. 16 at Cuvier Club in La Jolla. Volunteers and sponsors are needed. “I think it’s crucial and I think it’s life-changing for so many of them,” Palm said about the girls who participate in the retreats. “I think there’s so many ways in which Angel Faces really creates a framework for day-to-day life, but also creates a network of friends that have been through similar circumstances. Many of these girls are somewhat isolated because they might be the only person at school to have suffered such an injury.” The one-week retreat for girls 12-18 will take place June 20-26 in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. Applications are available online at angelfaces.com. The application deadline is April 15. The retreat is free to participants.

Faulkner classic adapted in ‘Way Downriver’

La Jolla Cultural Partners

By Diana Saenger William Faulkner’s story “Old Man,” about a historic flood that ravages the countryside of the lower Mississippi, became a classic over time, digging deep into the human experience of dealing with the forces of nature. Edward Morgan, a writer of plays, cabaret shows and adaptations, has reformed Faulkner’s “Old Man,” renamed it “Way Downriver,” and North Coast Repertory Theatre’s (NCRT) Artistic Director David Ellenstein is directing the drama, onstage through May 8. “The story is essentially the same,” Ellenstein said. “The adaptation is much more theatrical, personal and opened up. In the ‘Old Man,’ the characters didn’t even have names. This is a great story and this adaptation is more accessible and audience friendly.” The “Old Man” is a metaphor for the Mississippi River, and the context of the play is the record-breaking great Mississippi flood of 1927 (still on record as the greatest natural disaster in the history of the United States). “It’s what happens to the people in this story, not the flood, which is just a backdrop and the catalyst for what makes the human interactions happen,” Ellenstein said. The play deals with honor, security, fate, irony, perseverance, and one’s choice of values — all tied up in one man’s journey. “This man is a mixed bag; he’s dealing with catastrophe and other human beings who are at odds with him, and what he has to

The cast includes new and returning NCRT actors: Richard Baird, Geno Carr, Benjamin Cole, Sara Fetgatter, Robert Grossman, John Herzog and Max Macke. “Way Downriver” has only been staged once before, three years ago at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, as part of its Southern Writers Project. As the second production, Ellenstein said he is extremely excited about it.

“It’s theatrical, funny, entertaining, jumps around, has music and is profound,” he said. “It uses actors in a good way in that they sometimes play double characters… and it’s cleverly staged as you have actors acting out the story at the same time someone is telling the story, which creates a fun dynamic. I’m really jazzed about this play.” NCRT’s 34th season is nearly over and in retrospect Ellenstein said he’s very happy with the results — NCRT inked deals

Carmel Valley-based Dr. Samantha Madhosingh recently launched a journal to accompany her latest book, ”Strike it Happy! 101 Reflections to Revolutionize Your Life.” Madhosingh says, “There are no secrets to happiness and it’s not about luck. Happiness is a choice. It’s about ending self-sabotage, eliminating fear, doubt and worry. Making the hard choices necessary for obtaining greater peace, joy and happiness in your life. It’s about being willing to face the darkness – this is when breakthroughs happen.” Madhosingh, known as America’s “Holistic Success Doctor,” teaches how to find deep fulfillment and happiness in every single area of one’s life. Teaching people how to “Strike it Happy™,” she believes that happiness has nothing to do with luck and everything to do with how you view the world, plus your desire and willingness to boldly live out loud. Having spent over 15 years studying the connections between mind, body, and spirit, Madhosingh uses practical techniques for change, including advanced cognitive therapy and positive psychology approaches, which help to change ones thinking (and life) forever. Madhosingh is a clinical psychologist, certified professional coach, and an expert

speaker on emotional wellness, happiness, fulfillment, love, relationships and holistic success. For more information, visit www.askdrsamantha.com.

The winning design for the 2016 Meneuhune art contest, which will grace event T-shirts.

Menehune Surf to turn Sweet 16 BY ASHLEY MACKIN Celebrating its own “Sweet 16,” anniversary, the Menehune Surf Contest for children and teens returns to La Jolla Shores 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday May 7. But over the years, the contest has evolved to become more inclusive and do more to give back. The event now includes divisions for parents and adaptive surfing for challenged athletes, and participants who entered the contest when they were little groms (surf slang for children) are coming back as young adults to volunteer. The one-day judged event for surfers 18 years and under includes Longboard, Shortboard and Novice divisions, as well as the crowd-favorite “Super Menehunes” division for those 6 years old (non-judged). Heat times based on age will be published Friday before event, and the deadline for entries is April 27. Entry fees are $30, $60 and $90, depending on age, number of entries and categories. The event is free for spectators. Named for mythic Hawaiian people, said to be “dwarf sized,” the Menehune Surf Contest includes a judged surfing competition, and a party with raffles and silent auctions to raise money for beneficiaries. This year’s beneficiaries are Scripps Institution of Oceanography, Friends of La Jolla Shores, Junior Lifeguard Foundation of San Diego and Natural High. “Years ago, the La Jolla Shores Surfing Association was just a group of surfers who wanted to get our kids involved in the principles of community and giving back, while enjoying and appreciating the ocean and surfing,” said contest director Stephanie Hoffman. To recognize the families that have taught their children to surf and encouraged participation in the contest, La Jolla Shores Surfing Association president Lorraine Schmalenberger said organizers introduced judged heats for parents a few years back. “The Shores is such a family place that through the years, we’ve started to see surfing families. So it occurred to me to get the moms and dads involved,” she said. The dad division

is called the DOG (Dads Of Groms) and the mom division is MOB (Moms On Boards). Since then, Schmalenberger said, “It’s been wonderful to see the tables turn so the kids can cheer on the parents. It’s also so fun to hear the kids talk up their parents and give them advice – its hilarious. It’s become very popular.” Last year, the contest added an adaptive category for those with injuries, whether they be a menehune or a veteran. In its first year, the adaptive standing and prone divisions were not judged. But this year, the challenged categories will be. “Through our connections on the beach, we learned veterans are returning from overseas, so we’ve noticed more surfing veterans,” Schmalenberger said. “A lot are amputees, but others have less visible injuries such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or brain injuries. Having them participate is a great way for our group to honor veterans.” Hoffman added there would also be division for children with injuries and/or amputations, with many signed up to participate. “It motivates the children to see someone without an arm go out and surf and have a great time,” she said. To help organize the event, Hoffman said she has the help of several menehunes who are not so little anymore. “We see the kids that started surfing in this contest when they were 5 years old that are now teenagers coming back to volunteer the day of the event. More and more, I get calls from them asking how they can help.” In recent years, she added, the contest has grown from around 20 to nearly 200 entrants and another 50-plus volunteers. For the last 10 years, LJSSA has also sponsored an annual art contest, to find original artwork to grace the event T-shirts. This year’s winner is Point Loma High School student Katrina Schwartz who received $100 for her winning design. The top 40 entries will be exhibited at La Jolla’s Riford Library youth wing until mid May at the 7555 Draper Ave. library. —More event information at ljssa.org

Kitten Mikaela and Shepherd Ami began an early friendship that will withstand the test of time.

TRUE LOVE

Reunited orphan kitten, canine ready for adoption Helen Woodward Animal Center is lucky to see new friendships formed every day as happy adopters go home with fuzzy forever friends. But it was the old friendship of an unlikely pair that touched the hearts of Center staff recently. Two recently relinquished pets, an 18-month-old female Shepard-blend named Ami and a 9-month-old female brown tabby named Mikaela, were reunited on Center grounds and the joyful reunion was proof that love has no bounds. Last week, Ami and Mikaela came to Helen Woodward Animal Center by way of long-time rescue partner VIDA (Volunteers in Defense of Animals). The group relayed the twosome’s tale and a hope that placement at the Center would help them find a home together. Shepherd-blend Ami (meaning “friend” in French) had immediately connected with the tiny tabby Mikaela from the moment the family brought her home, and an old photo left with the pair even shows them snuggling from their earliest days. Unfortunately, life-changing plans relocated their adopted family to a different country. Not wanting to put the pets through the long quarantine process, the difficult decision was made to surrender the duo to the rescue group. As if the sudden change of location wasn’t challenging enough, Ami and Mikaela’s distinct difference in size have kept them apart for the time being. A pen big enough for Ami has bars too easy for Mikaela to escape through and a pen small enough for Mikaela leaves Ami with too little room for her size and energy. Helen Woodward Animal Center recently united the friends for the first time since their surrender and the joy was palpable. Covering Mikaela’s face with happy kisses, Ami showed no signs of forgetting her best buddy and Mikaela welcomed the familiar affection of her best girlfriend. Ami and Mikaela are available for adoption at Helen Woodward Animal Center. The Center is seeking a forever family that will adopt the friends together. To adopt Ami and Mikaela or for more information on Helen Woodward Animal Center, please go to www.animalcenter.org, call 858-756-4117 or stop by at 6461 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe.

Kitchen Shrink’s Key Lime Blisscotti

In the limelight with lemon’s close cousin

T

he produce aisles are popping with mounds of vibrant emerald citrus — lemon’s petite and lively relative. Limes pack a bitter lip puckering punch, more acidic with less sugar than lemons, while enjoying their own flavor profile. Growing up I didn’t cotton to this green beauty as my dad always slathered on a sickeningly sweet lime-scented after-shave lotion that made the real fruit off-putting to me. Years later, I’ve embraced this sassy citrus to dial up everything from salsas, ceviches, stir fries and rice dishes to cocktails, mocktails and key lime cookies and pies. Here’s a primer on this zippy little squirt. The Lime’s Lineage Limes are natives of Southeast Asia with probable origins in Indonesia. Arab traders transported these green gems to eastern Mediterranean climes in the 900’s. From there, limes trickled into Spain via the Arab Muslim Empire, where they were cultivated throughout Europe. Columbus has been credited with bringing limes to the West Indies, while Spanish explorers introduced them to Florida, still a major lime producer today, along with Mexico, Spain and India. Juice It Up Lime’s best asset is its immune boosting Vitamin C load. This was recognized by the British Royal Navy in the early 1800s. Sailors were given a daily ration of lime or lemon juice added to their grog (diluted

rum) to ward off scurvy, bringing about the moniker “limey.” Limes also have a rich store of Vitamin A for skin and ocular health, calcium and phosphorus to amp up bone strength, potassium for fluid balance, magnesium to ratchet up energy, while maintaining the heart and blood vessels, folate for normal cellular development during pregnancy, and important trace minerals, including zinc, selenium, and copper. Key to Success The Persian or Tahitian lime, a hybrid cross, closely resembles a lemon in shape, but usually slightly smaller with a delicate green rind, and a seedless, redolent light green pulp. The Key lime (also called Mexican or Bartender’s lime) from Florida is smaller and sourer than its lime sibling, rounder in shape with yellow nuances in its thinner skin, along with seeds. When picking limes choose smooth, glossy, supple-skinned ones without blemishes, shriveled rind or brown spots. They should have good heft, be firm, but also yield to pressure. Your Main Squeeze Spunky and refreshing, the lime’s peel or zest, juice, pulp and even leaves are attention grabbers in a wide range of drinks, dishes, and condiments in various ethnic cuisines. Limeade, flavored sparkling lime water, margaritas and gimlets quench a parched thirst, while lime twists, wedges or slices make eye

■ Ingredients: • 3 eggs • 1 cup of white cane sugar • 1/2 cup of vegetable oil (I prefer grape seed or safflower) • 1 tablespoon of fresh squeezed Key lime juice • Zest from 2 Key limes • A few drops of vanilla or almond extract • 3 cups of unbleached flour • 3 teaspoons of baking powder • A pinch of salt • 1 teaspoon of Key lime liqueur/schnapps (optional) • 1 cup of chopped, toasted nuts (pecans, macadamias, almonds, your choice) ■ Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat eggs and sugar in a large bowl. Add the oil, extract, liqueur and juices. In a separate bowl, combine remaining dry ingredients. Blend the flour mixture with the egg mixture popping garnishes to cocktails and beers. Use lime to dial up risottos and pastas, taboulis and stir-fries, grilled chicken and wild caught salmon, halibut and sea bass. Perk up corn and green salads and slaws, salsas and seafood cocktails with chile-lime dressings. Grate zest into cookies, cakes, quick breads, cheesecakes, scones, pancakes, jams and preserves. Or whip up the iconic Key Lime Pie, a Floridian concoction that is beloved

gradually until it forms a dough ball. On a parchment-lined cookie sheet, form four oblong loaves. Bake 20-25 minutes. Remove the loaves and cut into slices, 1-inch wide. Return to the cookie sheet, placing the fingers sideways. Bake for another 10 minutes or until golden brown, turning the biscotti mid-way. Serve with coconut ice cream or citrus-flavored gelato or sorbet. — For more lime recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Cook’s Tips Like lemon juice, squirt lime juice on fresh cut fruits such as bananas,apples and avocados to prevent oxidation or browning. For the sodium-conscious, use lime juice as a salt substitute. When juicing limes, store at room temperature, and roll several times with your palm against a hard surface to increase the juice yield.

Spring Maintenance Tips to Get Your Vehicle Up to 100% ahead of El Niño Every year it’s a good idea to incorporate maintenance on your vehicle as part of your general spring cleaning procedure. Potholes, frost heaves, and cold temperatures can all put your brakes, suspension, tires, and battery to the test. You should always make a point to analyze your vehicle at least once a year DR. VAN CHENG San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263 sdveininstitute.com

to make sure that it’s running in top condition. Doing so can help you avoid a serious issue or being involved in a San Diego car accident. Use the following tips to stay on top of your vehicle’s maintenance this spring. No one wants to be caught in the heavy El Niño rains with an improperly maintained vehicle! Tire Pressure Make sure all your tires have been properly inflated and balanced. This little step goes a long way not just towards minimizing the chances of a flat tire, but it can also improve your gas mileage, too. Brakes Anytime the weather dips, it’s a good idea to look at your brake fluid, parking brake, hoses, and lines. Brake pad changes and a total inspection of the brake system

can go a long way towards helping you avoid accidents and serious issues this spring. In heavy rains, you rely on breaks in great shape to help you come to a stop quickly, even on slick surfaces, so don’t skip over this step. Plugs, Wires and Batteries These components of your vehicle have to work extra hard when it’s cold outside. Make sure you replace old or weak wires, plugs and batteries. Anything over three years old should be replaced completely. Wheel Alignment and Suspension Determine any leaks or wear on your shocks and struts before heading out on the road this spring and summer. Fluid Levels Don’t ignore your engine oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, anti-freeze or

windshield washer fluid. The brake fluid flush can also be beneficial. Engine Filter When you’re getting your oil change, ask that the engineer filter be looked at carefully to determine whether it needs to be replaced. Hoses and Belts If your hoses are cracked, worn, soft, blistered or brittle, you should replace them. Anything over five years should be replaced even if it looks like it’s in relatively good condition. And finally, make sure you turn on those headlights in heavy rain!
