CV board to hear one more One Paseo update before November decision BY KAREN BILLING The One Paseo development project will return to the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board for an update at its Thursday, Oct. 22 meeting. The tentative schedule is for the planning board to make its recommendation on One Paseo at its November meeting, with Kilroy aiming to get San Diego Planning Commission approval in December 2015 or January 2016 and San Diego City Council approval by February 2016. The Oct. 22 meeting will be held at 7 p.m. at the Carmel Valley Library. The current plan is 95,871 square feet of retail, 280,00 square feet of office space and 608 residential units. The plan represents a 61 percent reduction in re-
Parents lobby to improve walking safety on Del Mar Heights Road BY KRISTINA HOUCK While students around the world walked to school in support of International Walk to School Day last week, some local parents didn’t allow their children to participate in the movement. A group of parents in Del Mar Heights along Calais Drive, Mango Drive, Portofino Drive and other side streets say their children do not have a safe walking route to Del Mar Heights Elementary School. Worried about their children’s safety, parents have shared their concerns with the city of San Diego and Del Mar Union School District. “If there was a safe way to walk to school, more people would walk to school,” said Amanda St. Claire, whose second and fourth
Del Mar Heights Road sidewalk is unprotected. Some residents are concerned that a vehicle will eventually hit a pedestrian. Courtesy photo graders go to Del Mar Heights. “The main concern is safety.” Currently, students walk along Del Mar Heights Road between Mango Drive and Mercado Drive to get to the school. Del Mar Heights Road is at an incline, and because children have to walk up toward the school, parents believe drivers traveling down the road may not see them easily.
Further, because there are no sidewalks on Mercado, most of the walkers walk up over a small hillside to get to Boquita Drive. “The hillside isn’t safe either, but it’s safer than any other option,” St. Claire said. After a recent accident along the route, Del Mar Heights parent Cathy Rogowski said she no longer walks with her children and instead drives them less than a half-mile to the school, at 13555 Boquita Drive in Del Mar. “We used to walk, but after this most recent accident, we’re not going to take the chance of walking,” said Rogowski, whose children are in kindergarten and second grade. “If it’s a matter of safety, we don’t want to take
tail and a 43 percent reduction in office space for a total of 1,175,871 square feet. In accordance with requirements for previous San Diego City Council approval, 10 percent of the residential units will be affordable. Kilroy held a series of public workshops in July and August to help inform its revised design. According to a September presentation to the planning board, residents provided feedback such as they wanted to see the project connect more to the community, abundant and accessible parking, and great attention paid to landscaping. Residents at the workshops also wanted Kilroy to promote the use of outdoor seating areas, add green See ONE PASEO, page 19
SB School District to poll voters on bond issue BY KRISTINA HOUCK The Solana Beach School District will soon look to voters to help decide whether a general obligation bond should be placed on the ballot in 2016.

San Dieguito tour shows how campuses are benefiting from Prop AA funds BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District let the public get an up-close look at some of the new classroom and school updates they are proudest of with a Prop AA tour on Oct. 8. All the stops on the tour featured projects that were completed using funds from Prop AA, the $449 million general obligation bond passed by voters in 2012. Many of the projects on the tour were completed over the summer, using the latest bond draw of $117 million. The tour was considered a meeting of the SDUHSD board as well as the Independent Citizens Oversight Committee, which ensures that all funds are used in support of projects included in the bond measure. This is the district’s second tour of Prop AA projects. Last year’s tour visited new media centers at La Costa Canyon and Diegueno Middle School, the construction site at Pacific Trails Middle School and the stadium at Canyon Crest Academy. This year, guests visited Torrey Pines High, Earl Warren Middle School’s Se-

Photos by Karen Billing ahawk Village and the new Pacific Trails. At Torrey Pines, the tour looked in on a new weight room and four new chemistry classrooms, and checked out the upgrades to classrooms in the main academic building. The new weight room is a big upgrade from the old “bare bones” portable it used to be housed in, and is used by students in weight training class, PE and by sports participants. Though the tour checked out the room, it wasn’t one funded by Prop AA, but instead by generous donations from the Torrey Pines Foundation. Torrey Pines’ new “J” building toward the back of campus replaced the site of the old weight room. It features four new chemistry classrooms and a large prep area, giving teachers room to collaborate and to store materials and equipment. “This is what the next generation of science classrooms
are going to look like in the district,” Schmitt said. While the typical classroom is 900 square feet, the labs are 1,400 square feet. “It’s really roomy, so the kids never feel like they’re cramped,” said chemistry teacher Charlenne Falcis-Stevens. The lab tables can be moved and reconfigured and the stools are comfortable; some even have backs. See TOUR, page 18

Fairgrounds officials call Kaaboo Festival a Torrey Pines senior local winner in hit with merchants, despite noise complaints national video scholarship contest BY JOE TASH Del Mar Fairgrounds officials gave high marks to the first-ever Kaaboo music festival which was held at the state-owned property in September, and said they are looking forward to the event’s return next year. The comments came Tuesday, Oct. 13, at the board meeting of the 22nd District Agricultural Association, the agency that oversees the fairgrounds. Kaaboo’s director of community relations, Julie Coleman, was at the meeting to make a presentation to the board. Earlier in the day, she met with officials from Del Mar and Solana Beach. “This was a home run,” said fairgrounds general manager Tim Fennell of the music, food and arts festival, which was held Sept. 18-20. “Everybody who came had a fabulous time.” Kaaboo officials have declined to release attendance figures for the three-day festival, which included seven stages and more than 100 musical acts such as headliners No Doubt, the Zac Brown Band and the Killers. “We’re a private company. We try to keep things close to the vest,” Coleman said. Apparently, the festival’s organizers did not even share attendance figures with 22nd DAA officials, which prompted board member Stephen Shewmaker to request the information on a confidential basis. Fennell said he estimated the event drew 50,000 to 60,000 people over the three days, which he expects to increase by at least 20 percent next year, “just from word
of mouth, it was that good of an event.” Both Coleman and fairgrounds officials reported no major traffic, parking or security issues. The biggest complaint, said Coleman, was regarding noise, especially on Sunday, when the heat and humidity were high and caused the sound to carry further. Many complaints came from as far away as Carmel Valley and Del Mar Heights, she said. “We’re working with the team to reduce those noise impacts for future years,” she said. All outdoor music and amplified sound ended promptly at 10 p.m., and that will continue next year. In addition, the festival’s organizers will increase sound monitoring equipment, analyze stage locations and install more sound “blocking and diffusing elements,” in order to decrease the number of noise complaints, Coleman said. Next year’s festival is planned for Sept. 16-18, and organizers, although pleased with the first-year attendance, expect more people to turn out in 2016, Coleman said. She added that they will be prepared to deal with the traffic and security issues that come with larger crowds. While some nearby residents may not have liked the sounds emanating from the fairgrounds, the event was a big hit with local businesses. Representatives of two Del Mar hotels told the 22nd DAA board Tuesday that the event boosted revenues during what is normally a slow month, and they want the See KAABOO, page 15

CCA’s Girls Who Code group encourages females to pursue careers in ‘STEM’ fields BY KAREN BILLING Seventy-four percent of girls in middle school express an interest in science, technology, engineering and math — but when it comes to choosing a college major, only .4 percent choose to pursue those paths. Canyon Crest Academy sophomore Nithya Krishnamurthy hopes to help re-program those percentages, deciding to start in her corner of the world by founding a Girls Who Code club at CCA last year. “Something is holding them back, and we want to put an end to that to get more girls to choose computer science,� said Nithya, an AP computer science student. Girls Who Code is a national organization that seeks to close the gender gap in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) education and “empower girls to pursue careers in technology and engineering.� The U.S. Department of Labor projects that by 2020, there will be 1.4 million computer specialist job openings, and Girls Who Code aims to reach gender parity with women filling half of these computing jobs. To accomplish that goal, adolescent girls need to have some exposure to computer science education. Girls Who Code has set out to reach those young women and has seen The Girls Who Code club at Canyon Crest Academy is in its second year.

Death and cake: Gathering to help people contemplate end of life BY JARED WHITLOCK Tea, cake and conversations about dying. That’s the idea behind death cafes, where strangers meet and tackle a taboo subject: mortality. Tiffany Fox, who is hosting a death cafe 2-4 p.m. Oct. 17 at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of San Dieguito in Del Mar, said that like many, she always found it difficult to talk about death with friends and family. “If you try to bring up death, people say you’re morbid, or they say you’re weird and they change the subject,” said Fox, an Encinitas resident. “And I never quite understood that. Because it’s the eleTiffany Fox phant in the room. We’re all going to die.” The upcoming event is free. There are no objectives, agendas or ideas pushed on anyone at death cafes, a worldwide movement that started in London in 2011. The meetings don’t provide grief counseling, but rather kickstart discussions to ease anxiety about shuffling off this mortal coil. Conversations vary from what happens after we die to having your estate in order. And while it may seem odd, Fox said many find death cafes life-affirming. That proved true for her, a breast cancer survivor who said contemplating her mortality was a key part of the healing process. “Working through some of that discomfort associated with death can bring healing and a sense of peace,” she said. Fox added that staring mortality in the face was liberating, a way of regaining
control and hope. After her breast cancer diagnosis, Fox dove into death research. That included reading the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying and what other religious texts have to say about life after death. When Fox heard about a death cafe in Carlsbad, she knew she had to go. During the cafe, a woman discussed a horrific accident. It was the first time Fox had heard someone speak so frankly about the topic. “You hear media reports of all these horrible things happening, but it seems so far removed,” Fox said. “It was very visceral, very real.” She also listened to a person talk about an out-of-body experience, and another spoke on how psychedelic drugs changed their perspective on death. On the flip side, some were more focused on the practical matter of funeral planning. “It was the most profound conversation I’ve ever had, and with total strangers. That’s what I love about it. Here we are, people from all walks of life, freely talking about something that has a stigma around it.” And the Carlsbad death cafe conversation wasn’t entirely heavy. “I expected it to be sad and somber, but there was so much laughter,” Fox said. “And I think that comes from the relief people feel, to finally have a chance to talk about this.” Fox wanted others to share in the experience, so she decided to host her first death cafe a year ago, which drew nearly 50 people. Attendees are split into groups, and from there, they can draw from conversation prompts if needed. A sample of the conversation-starters:
San Diegans take part in a death cafe discussion, a worldwide movement that started in London. Courtesy photo “If you could determine the age you would want to die, what would it be and why?” and “What does it mean to you not to delay happiness and to live every day as though it were your last?” as well as “When you are dying, what will you regret?” Who goes to death cafes? Fox said it ranges, but three categories of people are generally well-represented: those looking for deeper conversations, hospice workers and the intellectually curious. “Maybe one or two come for the cake,” she jokingly said, noting that dessert is a staple of death cafes, since it brings a little sweetness to a dark topic. Those looking to mull over death can’t always go to family, Fox said. “With family, there’s a lot wrapped up in the idea of loss. What happens to your belongings, who’s going to provide care — all kinds of family dynamics go into that and it becomes complicated really quickly.”
Most attendees are in their mid-50s, but Fox encouraged young people to go. “Think about how much wisdom you’re surrounded by at an event like this,” she said. “There’s much to learn from.” Karen Van Dyke, who started San Diego’s first death café in May 2013, said there are now 26 death café hosts around the county. She attributes this growth to death cafés playing a valuable role. While there’s grief support and end-of-life planning meetings, there’s also a desire to toss around ideas related to death and philosophy. “People shouldn’t be so scared of death, and I think more are realizing that,” Van Dyke said. Fox agreed. In part because of death cafés, she said discussing death is becoming more accepted, and not just over cake and tea, but across society. “Death café, in my opinion, is one of those things — like jury duty, or the birth of a child or an amazing rainbow — that everyone should experience. Even if not for you, I encourage people to contemplate death in their own way.”

In ‘After You,’ best-selling author Moyes continues to explore character’s life BY LOIS ALTER MARK Although best-selling author Jojo Moyes visited only seven cities on her latest U.S. book tour, she made sure San Diego was one of them. “I love San Diego so much,” she said, admitting that she even brought her family on vacation to La Jolla this past summer. “San Diego readers have supported me from the very beginning, and it is now one of my favorite places to visit.” Because Warwick’s of La Jolla holds a special place in L-R: Julie Slavitsky of Warwick’s, Jojo Moyes and Susan her heart, she not only spoke and signed copies of her new Appleby of the RSF Library Guild. Photo courtesy of Lois book, “After You,” at the Alter Mark store recently, but she was also the featured guest at an author luncheon hosted by the Rancho Santa Fe Library Guild in partnership with Warwick’s to benefit the Rancho Santa Fe Library. “When we announced that Jojo Moyes was coming, the response from every woman over 25 was the equivalent of telling a teenage girl they were going to see Taylor Swift,” said Susan Appleby, director of membership and development for the Rancho Santa Fe Library Guild, in her introduction to the author. “Jojo is a rock star.” The sold-out crowd apparently agreed, cheering when Moyes announced, with her charming British accent, “This is the last day of my tour. So I’m going to go crazy.” Before reading a short excerpt from “After You,” she asked whether anyone in the audience didn’t know the ending to “Me Before You,” its beloved predecessor. When a few people reluctantly raised their hands, she warned, “It may give something away to say that we’re about to go into a grief counseling group.” “Me Before You,” which has sold almost 6 million copies since it came out in 2012, is the story of Louisa Clark, an ordinary working-class girl who takes a job as the personal assistant to Will Traynor, an intelligent, wealthy and very angry young man who seemed to have it all until an accident left him paralyzed from the neck down.
The book is based on an actual story Moyes heard on the radio one day in which a rugby player, after years of living as a quadriplegic, had persuaded his parents to take him to Dignitas, a center for assisted suicide. “It was one of those stories that just wouldn’t leave my head,” said Moyes, the mother of three. “I couldn’t understand how any parent could agree to help their child end his life. But because I’m an ex-journalist, I did a lot of reading about the subject and, the more I read, the more I realized this young man and his family members had all been put in an intolerable position.” At the same time, Moyes had two family members of her own who required 24-hour care just to stay alive. “The issue of quality of life was very high in my mind,” she said. If book sales are any indication, it was high in the minds of readers, as well. According to Moyes, she started — and is still — receiving letters and emails from caregivers, people who had suffered from chronic illness or depression, people who’d had similar experiences in their family and people who were just feeling stuck and not leading the life they had planned when they were 15 and dreaming of big adventures. “They told me things like, ‘After I read “Me Before You,” I ditched my boyfriend, I ditched my job and now I’m going around the world,’” said Moyes in amazement. “And they got tattoos! There’s a whole gallery of ‘Me Before You’ tattoos, and I’m just a total mum, going, ‘Is that permanent?’” But the question that the majority of readers wanted to know was, “What did Louisa do next?” That question intrigued Moyes herself. “Louisa’s voice has never left me,” she confessed. “She’s a good person, and when I think of my daughter reading this book, I want her to take away an image not of a woman who just buys stuff or worries about how she looks, but of a woman who has a good heart and does things with her life.” “After You” continues Louisa’s tale and, said Moyes, it’s not the end of the story. “I see it as a trilogy and I do have a third one in mind, but I have to let it marinate a bit,” she said. “I feel a huge responsibility toward Louisa because she’s the most beloved character I’ve created in 14 books. I want to make sure I get it right.” By the time that novel is written, readers are likely to picture the characters as Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin, thanks to the movie version of “Me Before You,” which MGM will be releasing next spring. That may be the perfect time for Moyes to schedule her next appearance in San Diego. Visit www.jojomoyes.com.

Fire Department hosting events to ring bell about smoke alarms BY TONY MICHEL, MIKE DAIGLE AND MIKE MURPHY Most people think it will never happen to them, but house fires can be devastating and even deadly. In fact, seven people die every day in residential fires across the United States, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). One of the best ways to protect you and your family against a house fire is to have smoke alarms placed in every bedroom. While that might seem like common sense to most of us, a great many homes today still don’t have them. According to NFPA, half of all U.S. housefire deaths occur when people are sleeping, between the hours of 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. Having smoke alarms in your home cuts in half the chances of someone dying in a house fire. To encourage more people to install these alarms, the NFPA is promoting a new campaign during October: “Hear the Beep Where You Sleep: Every Bedroom Needs a Working Smoke Sparky the Fire Dog helped spread the Alarm.” To expand the use of smoke alarms in North word about smoke alarms. Courtesy County, American Medical Response (AMR) and photo its fire prevention partners in Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, and Solana Beach are holding a series of family-friendly events. Earlier this month, the Encinitas Fire Department hosted a fire prevention open house, and provided residents with information on smoke alarms and other fire prevention tips. What a great turnout! Sparky the Fire Dog was also there to greet those who stopped by. The Rancho Santa Fe Fire Department will also host a fire prevention open house from 9 a.m.-noon Oct. 24. The event will include tours of the fire station, and educational resources will be provided. AMR will give away Halloween Safety Kits and there will also be a costume contest for kids. Last, on Oct. 31, the Solana Beach Fire Department will host its own open house from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. The event will include a haunted ambulance, Halloween Safety Kits for kids, as well as fire prevention tips and auto-extrication and fire demonstrations. Please take this opportunity to learn more about the importance of smoke alarms, and meet the firefighters in your neighborhood who work every day of the year to keep you and your family safe.
The Divorce Help Clinic Now Operated under Pacific Coast Mediation
If you don’t have smoke alarms where you live, please take the initiative and get them installed. If a fire breaks out at your home, they will alert you quickly, and give you and your family those precious seconds you’ll need to escape.

NORTH COAST - OCTOBER 15, 2015 - PAGE A9
‘Jewish Jokes’ is serious about the role of humor in art and life BY ANTOINETTE KURITZ AND JARED KURITZ The Center for Jewish Culture presents “Jewish Jokes,� a one-man original play by San Diegans Phil Johnson and Marni Freedman, directed by David Ellenstein. “Jewish Jokes,� premiers in San Diego on Oct. 19 at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center in La Jolla. In 1950s Hollywood, at the height of the Communist blacklist, when careers were ruined by a whisper, we meet irascible comedy screenwriter Bernie Lutz, played by Johnson. Funny and lovable, Bernie has made his way up the ladder by being a spineless Hollywood sellout. Now, the night before a big red-carpet premiere that will make Bernie’s career, he has been asked to name names and give up his friend. He has one day to decide whether he will accede to government demands and save his skin, or protect his friend and save his soul in the most serious decision of his life. One man’s journey simultaneously though a historical Phil Johnson reality and into the depths of his own soul is at the heart of multi-layered, compelling, and relevant play. Visit http://www.sdcjc.org/pas/index.aspx. Tickets at www.tickets.lfjcc.org or 858-362-1348. Johnson, Freedman, and director David Ellenstein sat down with us recently to answer some questions. You have been in a vast array of productions. What is the primary difference between working with a cast and doing a one-man play? PJ: In a one-man play, I can get a very clear voice for a character that I want to put out there. At this point in my life, I would like to explore people who are on specific emotional journeys and who have something to say to people that they can then take with them into their lives. It’s something I heard from my friend and director David Ellenstein, and it sticks with me. What is the difference between directing a one man play and a play with a larger cast? DE: More Intimate. More one on one. A true duo collaboration where you must lock in with the performer and really understand the skills of the performer. Often the performer is also the creator of the piece, so understanding the impetus of the author is essential. The relationship building is the performer and the audience, and not relationships with other actors. The solo performer must create both sides of any conflict, so guiding that process is also a focus.
You co-authored “Jewish Jokes.� What is the primary benefit of co-authoring? What is most difficult about it? PJ: I learn every single time I write with people — about style, about character, about form. And basically, it’s just really more fun as well. I love the social aspect of writing with someone and coming up with something totally new and fresh, while having a killer good time. Sometimes someone has a particular great strength that’s perfect for a project. Marni studied with someone who was blacklisted in the ’50s, so she had a huge reservoir of information to pull from for this piece. Plus she is so good at story structure. Of course, you can get in trouble too, because people get attached to their favorite things when writing. I was mostly attached to the character and what would happen to him emotionally, so Marni’s brilliance as to plot became a great help — there is so much that happens to him in this play. Every time I write with someone, I look for the great new strengths we are going to have together. We know the setting of “Jewish Jokes� is 1950s Hollywood — the McCarthy era. Why go back to that era? What is the relevance to today? PJ: At first I was looking for a setting for this character, a crusty, irascible funny Jewish man whose pragmatic sense of humor got him through everything in life, enriched everyone around him. I wanted it to be in the middle of the century, post-World War II. This was the time when Jewish comedy was king. Even though people may not have known it at that time, or even today, Jewish comedy then made up most musicals, comedy plays, standup comedy, most great forms of entertainment. The character of Bernie then needed something enormous to make him realize that that sense of humor was bigger than just his jokes. For me, the blacklist was that conflict; this moment in time when writers were censored and lives were destroyed. Censorship of artistic expression has always been the greatest taboo to me. The hysteria after the war, the forced conformity and fear of the stranger, along with the Blacklist’s visual presence on the new medium of television, combined to make the situation a national nervous breakdown. And people like this small, funny, creative guy were swept up in it, and sometimes had to make a stand that they may not have been ready to make. We see this now in our day — not being able to hold certain opinions about religion and politics, the total fracturing of any normal public discussion anymore, intolerance. The rise of anti-Semitism again — Jews in France are currently leaving in large numbers over resentment of the unresolved Palestinian/ Israeli conflict — makes this discussion a timeless one. What drew you to directing this particular play? DE: Phil Johnson first. He is a very talented and funny man and a friend. He asked me See JOKES, page 18

Free college financial workshop offered Oct. 28 at Torrey Pines HS Kerry Traylor, CEO and founder of College Strategy Experts, has teamed with the Torrey Pines High School Scholarship Fund committee to present a free community workshop titled “How to Survive the High Cost of College” from 7-8:30 p.m. Oct. 28 at the Torrey Pines High School Lecture Hall. The workshop is open to the community and will provide families with information about college admissions and financial aid that they need to become informed consumers. Register for the workshop at www. TPHS Scholarship Fund Board 2015 members tphssf.org. The nonprofit TPHS Scholarship Fund provides merit scholarships to deserving Torrey Pines high school students at the two- or four-year college, trade or vocational school or any accredited post secondary education of their choice. For every family that attends the March 24 workshop, College Strategy Experts will donate $25 to the TPHS Scholarship Fund. Since 1987, the TPHS Scholarship Fund has provided Torrey Pines seniors with scholarships ranging from $500 to $2,000. “Today, the volunteer, community-based scholarship organization raises an average of $30,000 per year,” said Mary Stromitis, co-president of the TPHS Scholarship Fund. Formerly known as Dollars for Scholars, the organization became independent in 2013. This year, the nonprofit reaches its $1 million mark — having raised $1 million in scholarships since it was founded more than 28 years ago, Stromitis said. “Our group’s mission is to provide scholarships for seniors,” said Karin Lang, co-president of the TPHS Scholarship Fund. “So whatever fundraisers we can hold that can help our students are a win-win. These kids are our future, and they deserve an affordable college education.” To register for the Oct. 28 workshop, visit www.tphssf.org.

TPHS football freshmen pierce Lancers, 42-0 BY JOHN SCHREIBER Suspense was absent from a freshman football contest between host Torrey Pines and Carlsbad on Oct. 8 as the Falcons dominated a one-sided 42-0 contest. The rout began immediately after an opening Carlsbad three-and-out was followed by a 41-yard Caleb Konti punt return to the Lancer 26-yard line. On the first offensive play, Falcon QB Miles Hastings connected on a 26-yard touchdown pass to Tucker Drawdy, and a Jason Heine extra point made it 7-0 Torrey Pines with just over a minute gone. Another Lancer three-and-out was followed by another quick Falcon scoring drive featuring a Heine sweep left for 17 yards, an Evan Galluzzi reverse right for 19 yards, and a Mac Bingham power run up the middle (pictured) for a 9-yard score. The extra point was blocked, but the Falcons led 13-0 with less than four minutes elapsed in the game. An interception by Falcons cornerback Luke Mikolajewski stopped the next Lancer drive, and more chunk plays from the Falcons offense ensued: QB Hastings with a 12-yard broken play scramble, a 17-yard swing pass to Mike Schreiber, and a 9-yard sweep by Galluzzi. The end result was a 17-yard field goal by Heine and a 16-0 Falcon lead as the second quarter began. The Torrey Pines defense kept the pressure on following the ensuing kickoff when linebacker Schreiber intercepted an errant Carlsbad pass and returned it for a touchdown. Another Bingham touchdown run and another Hastings-to-Drawdy TD pass left the score 36-0 and the game out of reach by halftime. The brick wall masquerading as the Falcon defense continued to hold in the second half. Safety Cameron Brown broke up a long pass and recovered a fumble to stop a Carlsbad drive deep into Falcon territory. Gabriel West, Nicholas Pauley, and Justin Vilchis all registered third-quarter sacks, the final two on consecutive plays that ended the third quarter with an exclamation point. Hastings was 5 of 10 passing for 115 yards and two TD passes in the first half alone. Tight end Robert Gacula caught two balls for 44 yards, Drawdy’s two catches for 49 yards were both touchdowns, and Bingham paced the rushing attack with five carries for 46 yards and two scores. The Falcons, now 4-2 on the season, return to action this Thursday evening, Oct. 15, at Oceanside.

Letters to the editor/Opinion Supervisors approve mental health plan Education Matters: BY DAVE ROBERTS I am proud to serve on a board that sends resources where they are needed most. That’s what happened at a recent Board of Supervisors meeting: a 4-0 vote to approve $10 million to provide housing for severely mentally-ill. Our action paves the way to greatly expand our Behavioral Health Services Permanent Supportive Housing Program, which has developed 241 dwelling units since its inception in 2008. The $10 million appropriation is part of a $145.5 million spending plan for funds from California’s Mental Health Services Act. Approved by voters in 2004, the Act — and the programs it has funded — has provided promise for many people who had long since given up hope. Tops among them are homeless people who suffer from serious mental illness. Meeting their extraordinary needs begins with finding them a decent place to live. As a member of the county’s Behavioral Health Advisory Board, that’s what I hear again and again from mental health experts and clients — that supportive housing is key to changing the life of a mentally ill person. The behavioral health board was one of many groups that endorsed the update to the county’s Mental Health Services Act plan ahead of the supervisors’ vote. The update now heads to the California Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission. In addition to funds for housing, the mental health plan includes: • Resources for Psychiatric Emergency Response Teams, In-Home Outreach Teams and the implementation of Laura’s Law, which provides for court-ordered treatment of se-

Be aware of attempt to control politics of DM community The Sandpiper has stooped to a new low by using a doctored photograph of four separate construction projects merged into one on the front page of the October 2015 edition! The Sandpiper has done an excellent job of exemplifying Yellow Journalism — defined as “journalism that exploits, distorts and/or exaggerates the news to create sensation to attract readers.” This entire edition is weighted with one-sided editorials and letters expressing the opinion that “the design approval rules in Del Mar are being manipulated, allowing residents to build large out of scale homes that are out of character with our community.” There is another active Del Mar citizenry that believes the new home projects being constructed in town are adding to the beauty and charm of our town. In this article, the Sandpiper states they “invited several residents and groups to offer alternate views but were turned down.” The simple answer to this is the documented history of Sandpiper manipulation, taking editorial freedoms with contrasting viewpoints and changing wording to “fit the space.” I suggest the citizens of Del Mar take a close look at the editors, publishers and supporters of the Sandpiper. The majority of these people are members of a group called Preserve Del Mar. Their intention, I’ve been told, is to “protect and preserve the community character of Del Mar.” Sounds good on the surface, but I object to their mean-spirited tactics. They regularly attend DRB hearings to sabotage projects that are in complete compliance with DRO regulations, but they just don’t like them. They vilify spec builders and now hedge fund managers as money mongers wanting to destroy our community. I most recently witnessed a despicable character assignation at a DRB hearing of a prominent, respected citizen of Del Mar because he is a builder. These same people hold positions on the Design Review Board, the Planning Commission, Shores Park Committee and our new DRO Ad Hoc Committee. That brings me back to manipulation. The Sandpiper and Preserve Del Mar are trying to control the politics of this community and push a very biased agenda. These agenda items include, but are not limited to, additional restrictions on our FAR, the elimination or great reduction of basements, outdoor great rooms and pools, to name a few. May I suggest to these very concerned citizens that they put deed restrictions on their own properties, with all the desired protection they want, and leave the rest of us alone!!

BY MARSHA SUTTON One of the benefits of having our children and their friends get older is being spared the pressure to contribute to their schools by buying unwanted (and always unread) magazines, candy or cookies, useless gift items or overpriced wrapping paper. Although thankfully this dubious child labor practice is losing popularity, one local school, Carmel Valley Middle School in the San DieMarsha Sutton guito Union High School District, continues to engage in this fundraising scheme that encourages children to work as unpaid sales reps. It’s a tactic that some parents say crosses the line into a system of favoritism for students who participate and shame for those who don’t. At CVMS, it’s magazine subscriptions. With the same fundraiser each year for more than 10 years now, traditions die hard. From the CVMS website: “We will be asking each student to join with us in a voluntary quota of EIGHT (8) sales by the end of our fall fundraising campaign. If each student does their part, we will be able to supply your children with the fun activities and educational programs that make our school great.” There’s more: “Consider giving magazine subscriptions as gifts this year! Purchase subscriptions for the school! Renew your subscriptions through our drive! Let friends and relatives know about our fundraiser. Ask them to save their orders for our program as well! Thank you, in advance, for your support. We count on your participation!” Some parents say the school pressures kids to hawk this stuff to friends and relatives by offering “incentives” — prizes, gifts, after-school parties, cut-in-line passes for food service, and opt-outs for the mile run in physical education — to boost participation. Said one parent: “I’ve objected ever since preschool to using kids as unpaid salespeople for for-profit companies, with only a fraction going to the school, and the bribery that goes along with it.” CVMS, said this parent who declined to be named, “seems to be taking this to a whole new level.” Many parents, she said, refuse to allow their kids to impose on friends and relatives to buy magazines that no one reads any more, but they feel bullied into giving something to avoid the shame their kids feel when they are singled out for non-participation. So, to alleviate guilt, they instead write a check directly to the school. No complaints Cara Dolnik, CVMS principal, justified the magazine sales effort, saying, “The idea is to solely raise money that goes back to the school.” She said she’s never received complaints from parents or students about the fundraiser, and insisted there was no pressure to write checks to the school for those who opt out. The fundraiser is run through the Associated Student Body class and supports ASB activities, Dolnik said, includSee EDUCATION, page 15

‘Bulky Item Cleanup Day’ to be held Oct. 17 in SB This year’s annual Bulky Item Clean-Up Day in Solana Beach is scheduled from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Oct. 17 in the La Colonia Community Center parking lot at the Valley Avenue entrance. Waste Management will provide roll-off containers for easy drop-off items such as furniture, appliances, mattresses and yard waste. Also, Solana Beach residents may call Waste Management at 1-800-386-7783 now through Oct. 16 to receive free curbside pickup and disposal of up to three bulky items. This year, a new addition is the collection of electronic waste (e-waste) items such as televisions and computers. However, these items will only be collected curbside (do not bring them to La Colonia, as they will not be accepted there) and will count as part of the three items maximum. (Hazardous waste is not included in this collection event). Call 1-800-386-7783 to schedule the pickup. All items need to be curbside by 7 a.m. Oct. 17.
Discounted rain barrel program offered The County of San Diego is partnering with Solana Center for Environmental Innovation to offer discounted rain barrels for sale to county residents. Now through Nov. 1, local residents can order rain barrels online and then pick them up between 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Nov. 7. For information about the program, the type of rain barrel offered or to pre-order, visit rainbarrelprogram.org/ sandiego.
EDUCATION ing school dances, Red Ribbon Week in the fall, Spirit Week in the spring, lunchtime festivities, and the purchase of small school spirit items like wristbands and stickers. Students who take ASB as a class are not required to sell magazines to get a grade, as some have claimed, but they do have to volunteer at ASB events as part of the class, Dolnik said. Not all ASB kids are enthusiastic. Reported one parent, “One ASB kid described feeling ashamed at having to be on stage getting others to sell, because her grade depends on it.” There was an all-school kick-off assembly last month to introduce the program to the students and explain about the incentives, some of which come in the form of rubber ducks. A “green bling” duck gives the student $10 cash. Students who collect the ducks are awarded prizes based on the number of subscriptions sold. The more sold, the more prizes. Students who sell four items receive a “get out of class” pass to go to a show. Eight items gets them an In & Out burger party, a disco light and a free-run pass that opts them out of the mile run in P.E. There are more prizes for selling more items. At 20 items, students receive something from Starbucks and a front-of-the-line pass that allows them to cut to the front of the food line all year. Cash and bigger prizes that escalate in value are promised for those “super sellers” who hit or exceed 40 items sold. Dolnik verified that prizes do include a “head of the food line” pass and a “one-free-run” pass that allows students to skip

This program sends the county of San Diego in the right direction on mental health. In related business, in September we reported a decline in suicides and the launch of a suicide-prevention campaign: Know the Signs, Find the Words, Reach out. And in October, at locations across the county, our Behavioral Health Services division will host a series of forums. We want to hear your thoughts on mental health services, how we can improve them and how Mental Health Services Act funds should be spent. Please take advantage of this opportunity to engage with experts on the topic of mental health. For times and locations, visit the county’s “It’s Up to Us” Web site: www.up2sd.org. Since 2005, the County of San Diego has spent more than $700 million of funds from the Mental Health Service Act. We truly take seriously our obligation to allocate these funds. That’s why we develop our plans in close consultation with community partners, clients and advocates to identify needs and areas where service can be improved.

event to come back. “We’re excited about the future, we’re excited about next year. We see nothing but upside for the community,” said Bob Harter, director of sales and marketing for L’Auberge Del Mar. According to Coleman, the average age of attendees was 38, and average household income was above $100,000. The composition of the audience was 43 percent male and 57 percent female, according to her presentation. The event generated an estimated $218,000 in sales tax on merchandise, food, beverages and vending, while local hotels were sold out for the weekend, generating transient occupancy tax of more than $65,000, Coleman reported. A report on the 22nd DAA board agenda said Kaaboo received favorable reports from the Sheriff’s Department and there were no security or traffic issues. Among the festival’s attractions were a Sunset Cliffs stage, which included a beach, boardwalk, volleyball court, swimming pool, cabanas, beach chairs and “elegant, air-conditioned portable restrooms,” said the report. The festival also included an art show, premier wine tasting, gourmet food and vendors. Fennell said the 22nd DAA will net between $800,000 and $900,000 from the event, including rent, parking fees and other sources of revenue. Among the issues raised by board members was that people who called to complain during the event were only able to leave a voice-mail message. While Coleman said festival staff returned all calls by the next day, director Russ Penniman said it would be better to have the calls answered by live staff. “Somebody needs to actually be there. People get frustrated when they hear the machine,” Penniman said.

the mandatory mile run in P.E. that other students are required to do. Commented one parent about the P.E. pass, “While the non-fundraisers run their mile, the kids who sold magazines get to do a fun obstacle course set up in the middle of the running route. How awful is that? “[I]t doesn’t just reward the obedient fundraisers, but literally punishes the children who chose not to push products on their family and friends.” Declining participation Dolnik said the fundraiser generated $23,600 for the school last year, $30,600 in 2013, and $32,700 in 2012. This year’s push began this fall, so no numbers are available yet for 2015. “ASB takes 45 percent of the proceeds from the sales,” she said. “The prizes come out of the other 55 percent from the company.” The company that profits from the efforts of its young salespeople at Carmel Valley Middle School is Great American Opportunities. Assuming Great American Opportunities gives the school its 45 percent share before it pays for expenses like the prizes and giveaways, as Dolnik claims, then the children generated a total of $52,444 in sales in 2014, $68,000 in 2013, and $72,667 in 2012. Given Dolnik’s numbers, the company’s 55 percent came to $28,844 in 2014, $37,400 in 2013, and $39,967 in 2012. Credit goes to the sales-kids who bought the party line and work hard to generate revenue for their school. Most are doing it for the right reasons — although maybe a little bit for the incen-
tives. Still, they can’t be faulted for their efforts to help their school. But there’s also no denying that the number of kids participating is declining. According to Dolnik, the estimated student participation was 30 percent in 2012, 29 percent in 2013, and 18 percent in 2014. The downward trend is clear. Even the incentives are not enough to pull in kids who object to being employed as unpaid workers. About those incentives: The “no-run” pass in P.E. sounds like an admission by the school that running the mile is despised rather than the healthy activity it should be presented as. Not a great message to be sending. And promising unfair rewards like cash, front-of-the-foodline passes and after-school parties crosses the line from an “incentive” to outright bribery — and singles out those kids who don’t want to sell or whose parents object to the program and won’t let them. Other San Dieguito middle schools used to do the magazine fundraiser, but SDUHSD superintendent Rick Schmitt said CVMS is the only one of the district’s five middle schools that still does it. This has to be a hard sell these days with so much magazine content available on the Internet and more environmental consciousness about paper waste and conservation of resources. Do schools really need to send little kids out to badger friends and relatives to buy stuff they don’t want? Surely there are other ways for CVMS to raise funds. — Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@gmail.com.

TPHS to honor Coach Thorne at pregame ceremony Oct. 16 Brent Thorne has been the Torrey Pines Cross Country coach for an astonishing 29 years. He has won numerous titles and awards, and has made an impact on all his athletes and students of the sport. For these reasons and many more, Torrey Pines High School will be honoring his dedication to the school at the Friday, Oct. 16, home football game during the pre-game ceremony. Last week, Michelle Buhai, Torrey Pines High School ASB Commissioner of Publicity, sat down with Coach Thorne to talk about his time at Torrey Pines and his history as a runner. Many people would be interested to know that he actually did not run competitively in high school or college! His career was inspired by long-distance runners in the 1972 Olympic Games including Bill Rodgers and Steve Prefontaine. From that point on, running took a special place in his heart. With six months of preparing and a strong-willed mind, he completed a marathon in a mere 2 hours and 42 minutes. This and his love for work-
ing with youth prompted him to pursue a career in coaching. Some of his best memories at Torrey Pines include winning a California State Title with the girls’ team in 2009, and additionally starting a chain of CIF titles in 2005 with a group of girls who he said were all evidently passionate about the sport and the school. His love for running and coaching and his drive to make the team better each year has motivated him to stay with the program for almost three decades. One of the most rewarding parts of the job to Coach Thorne is catching up with alumni and hearing that they are still active runners and keeping the good health habits that he taught them. Coach Thorne would like to give thanks to all of his athletes, and honor them for all their hard work and dedication over the past 29 years. The school hopes to see many members of the public at Friday’s ceremony to honor this man and all he has done for the Torrey Pines community.

Carlsbad varsity defeats Falcons BY WALTER BAYS Football fans at Carlsbad were treated to two very different games as the Lancers defeated visiting Torrey Pines 35-14. The first half was a defensive battle in which Carlsbad was 3 for 5 and 24 yards passing and 126 yards total offense, while the Falcons, who were clearly missing some key players, were 0 for 2 passing and just 37 yards of offense. Torrey Pines held Carlsbad to just a 7-0 deficit through special teams play, booming punts, good punt coverage, a 27-yard kickoff return by Nicholas Bradshaw, and a blocked field goal. The second half was an offensive show. Torrey Pines had two 80-yard touchdown drives, with quarterback Caden Kelley going 7 of 9 for 160 yards, connecting with several receivers, notably Michael Gadinas who had a 60-yard catch and run and a 14-yard touchdown strike. Unfortunately for Torrey Pines, the Lancers must have also made second-half adjustments, as QB Shea Morales completed 8 of 9 passes for 167 yards and Carlsbad picked up another 87 yards on the ground. In six second-half possessions, the Lancers scored four times including a 73-yard touchdown run, a 42-yard pass setting up a touchdown, and a 24-yard touchdown run. The Falcons’ record falls to 1-5 as they host the 4-2 Oceanside Pirates at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 17.

There are nine sinks around the back of the classroom and more electrical outlets. “The No. 1 thing kids asked for in their classrooms was charging stations,” Schmitt said, noting there are now 40-plus power outlets in a classroom, compared with two or three in the 1974 design of the school. The classroom’s windows allow the school to take advantage of natural light, with the light fixtures adjusting to how much light is coming in from the outside. The main academic building, known as building B, has 80 classrooms. Fifty were renovated over the summer. “Air conditioning is an incredible bonus of the new classrooms,” said Assistant Principal Garry Thornton. Carpet was taken out in parts of the building, and soon the halls, lighted by solar tubes and motion-sensor activated lighting, will have polished new floors. While the rest of the classrooms are being renovated, students attend class in a cluster of portables. Around the new buildings, the district also updated the landscaping to be more drought-tolerant. At Earl Warren, the 60-year-old campus is set to be demolished. Demolition started last week and an official groundbreaking ceremony will be held at 1 p.m. Friday, Oct. 16. “Our oldest middle school will soon become our newest middle school,” said Assistant Superintendent Eric Dill. Guests toured Seahawk Village, where students will attend school until the new campus is complete in fall 2017. “The Village is really a positive place for the kids,” said Principal Adam Camacho. “The academic delivery is not sacrificed by the interim buildings.” Camacho said the portable classroom village is perhaps even a step up from the old campus, with improved technology like wi-fi and the big bonus of air conditioning in all of the classrooms. The village is home to 600 students and includes a multipurpose room, science classrooms and a main quad with covered lunch tables. The campus is also secured by fences, while the old campus was much more open. “I’m really proud of the transition down here; the staff was ready to go on day one,” Camacho said. “It’s a safer, more cozy campus that the kids are really loving.” As Dill explained, the new campus will be anchored off the joint-use Solana Beach Library, with which the district has enjoyed a great partnership. Lionakis, the architects who designed the new Pacific Trails Middle School, have designed the new Earl Warren. Instead of a five-level campus, the new Earl will be two levels with the upper level featuring the bulk of the classrooms. Guests were wowed by the renderings of the new school, featuring beachy details like surfboards on a sleek, modern new campus. All information about Prop AA is available on the district’s website at sduhsd.net.

company to give us the best information,” said board member Richard Leib. “Tom Shepard with Public Policy Strategies has done a lot of campaigns and knows the area very well. I think he’ll provide excellent resources for us.” Public Policy Strategies is the latest consultant on Solana Beach School District’s bond support team. Bowie, Arneson, Wiles & Giannone serves as the district’s bond counsel by providing legal advice regarding a potential bond measure and preparing primary bond documents. Solana Beach is also working with Capitol PFG, which has served as the district’s financial adviser since 2011, and Stifel, which has previously underwritten transactions for the district. In addition, four architectural firms responded to the district’s request for proposals for the reconstruction of Skyline and the modernization of Solana Highlands. The proposals are under review. With Public Policy Strategies a part of the team, the district aims to develop poll questions this month with the firm’s locally based polling contractor, Tom Shepard & Associates Inc. The poll is planned for late October through November. Superintendent Terry Decker said the consultant plans to use a “range of approaches” when conducting the poll and intends to gather responses from about 300 people. Polling results should be available for review in December. The planned poll is the district’s latest step in exploring whether to place a general obligation bond on the ballot next year. Founded in 1925, the Solana Beach School District has seven elementary schools and a child development center. Last fall, the district opened its seventh school, Solana Ranch Elementary School in Pacific Highlands Ranch. Other schools, however, opened decades ago and need to be updated. Skyline School, for example, was constructed in phases between 1955 and 1961 and was modernized in 2000.

space around the office and parking, and create a “wedding cake effect” with taller buildings toward the center of One Paseo. In September, Kilroy showed the planning board its renderings of the massing of the new project, how it will look from Del Mar Heights, El Camino Real and High Bluff Drive. Chair Frisco White was complimentary about the office buildings, which have been terraced and articulated so they don’t have the bulk that the community would have seen with the project’s previous design. The new massing, landscaping and public paseos into the project seem to be an improvement over the old design, White said. Emergency response times continue to be a concern for some residents, and some still feel that the project is too big, more than the 500,000 square feet that it is entitled for. With the new One Paseo, Kilroy has pledged to reduce the average daily trips to 14,000. The company is updating the transportation demand management (TDM) program to encourage alternative modes of transportation, incorporating a privately funded shuttle program and a traffic signal synchronization program, and has reduced the signalized intersections from two to one.

the chance.” In late September, a vehicle hit and ran over a bike path sign posted on the sidewalk along Del Mar Heights Road. “It was completely run over and on the ground,” Rogowski said. “You could see tire marks on the sidewalk.” There have been similar incidents along the road in the past, according to the parents. Rogowski said vehicles driving east tend to swerve off the street and onto the sidewalk, particularly when the sun rises and impairs driver visibility. About a year and a half ago, Rogowski saw a vehicle hit a sign held up by a chain and two posts on the sidewalk along the street. “This is the second time a fixed post has been run over on the sidewalk in the past year and a half and we are very concerned that someone will get hurt,” Rogowski said in a Sept. 24 email to the office of San Diego City Council President Sherri Lightner. “We do not want to wait until someone actually does get hurt or even killed to make changes happen.” After the first incident, Rogowsk brought the issue before the Torrey Pines Community Planning Board. “This recent accident has revived our interest in establishing a safe route to school,” she said. Since the latest incident, Rogowski and other concerned parents have contacted the city and the school district. “I did contact the school district and they’re in support, but there’s only so much they can do except advocate for our cause,” Rogowski said. “We just don’t want to lose momentum again.” After hearing concerns, Superintendent Holly McClurg said Cathy Birks, the district’s assistant superintendent of business services, also contacted the city. “I appreciate being included so we can respond and act accordingly as well,” McClurg said. “It is a busy road, and we want to make sure that our children are safe.” Information provided by San Diego’s Transportation and Storm Water Department states that the road has an accident rate that is “considered typical for roadways of this classification and volume.” The city’s average rate for this type of street is .64 accidents per million vehicle miles, and the rate for this particular street is .66 accidents per million miles. Since 1998, there has been one reported pedestrian accident on Del Mar Heights Road between Mango Drive and Crest Way. “Essentially, this counts as a very good safety record,” said Bill Harris from the city’s Communications Department. Still, parents would like the city to take some sort of precaution to improve safety along the road. Parents have suggested a guardrail and other street improvements, even an intersection at Del Mar Heights Road and Mercado Drive. In an Oct. 7 email to the parents, Biljana Dekic of Transportation Engineering said the city would evaluate whether a traffic signal should be installed at Del Mar Heights Road and Mercado Drive. “It takes about three to four weeks to get data from our consultants; therefore, we won’t have any updates before then,” Dekic said. Information provided by the Transportation and Storm Water Department further explained that a guardrail is not an option because it does not meet the standards and requirements of the city’s Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices. However, the city is reviewing options for a “lane diet,” which would reduce lane widths and shift lanes further away from the sidewalk. The city is also evaluating all intersections on Del Mar Heights Road between Mango Drive and Crest Way for potential traffic signals. Speeds on the road are too high for uncontrolled crosswalks without the protection of a signal, Harris explained.

WWII air hero soars again as he shares story with Del Mar crowd • Retired U.S. Marine flying ace fought Japanese pilots over the Pacific, gave air support to American troops BY KRISTINA HOUCK The local community had an opportunity to meet a true hero when one of the last surviving World War II Marine Corps ace pilots spoke to a crowd Oct. 4 at the Del Mar Hilton. Retired U.S. Marine Col. Dean Caswell shared his story as part of a speaker series by the San Dieguito American Legion Post 416. “We have an unspeakable pleasure to have one of the great American heroes in our midst,” said Post 416 Commander Steve Lewandowski as he introduced the colonel. “The stories that this man has to tell are unbelievable. He truly is a great American hero.” “I’m honored, myself, to be here, to talk to you and to hear your stories, too,” the colonel said in response. “It’s quite a privilege for me.” The 93-year-old, who is also a former Blue Angel pilot, talked about his military experience, explaining how he served in Japan during WWII. He fought the Japanese over the Pacific and provided air support to troops in Okinawa. “The young need to know our history,” he said. Caswell joined the Marine Corps two weeks before the Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor. With two years of college, he requested flight training and was eligible. He remembered the comments his instructor wrote in his first flight log. “He wrote, ‘He sure tries hard, but he’s very uncoordinated,’” Caswell said with a laugh. Despite the shaky start, Caswell soloed after three hours of instruction and continued on to train as a fighter pilot in Santa Barbara. In 1944, Caswell joined Fast Carrier Task Group 58. Led by Admiral Marc Mitscher at Ulithi in the Caroline Islands, Caswell said the task group comprised 800 ships, including 14 big carriers, and numerous smaller carriers, battleships and supply ships. Their mission was to cripple Japanese air power and provide support in the 1945 battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. “I was a part of that,” Caswell said. His first aerial combat was at 28,000 feet over Tokyo. “I didn’t really know where I was, and I wasn’t getting good oxygen, so it wasn’t making me feel very good,” Caswell said. “Suddenly, a Japanese fighter appeared above me. I did not know they could fly higher than we could. I did not know that they had superchargers, but they did. That airplane went straight down, and I never saw him again. “By the time the combat was over, I had shot at everything I could shoot at. I didn’t hit a thing — I didn’t know where I was. When I got back to the carrier, the ceiling was 300 feet, with snow. That was my first carrier landing in the winter.” For nine months, the Marine fighter pilot flew missions from the USS Bunker Hill.
Retired U.S. Marine Col. Dean Caswell, pictured during WWII at left and today at right, shared his story with San Dieguito American Legion Post 416. Photos by Kristina “Task Force 58 attempted to kill every Japanese airplane they could find,” he said. “The theory was if they could destroy Japanese air power, then we could launch attacks from Okinawa into the homeland, and hopefully, win the war. The Japanese were not going to surrender.” Caswell became an ace for shooting down seven confirmed enemy aircraft and destroying 25 to 30 planes on the ground — and never once receiving a bullet hole in his Corsair aircraft. “My plane was famous,” Caswell said. But it wasn’t easy. At 23, the 6-foot-1 Caswell weighed 185 pounds. In those nine months, he lost 43 pounds. “When it was over and I was still alive, I weighed 142 pounds,” he recalled. “Nine months took that.” Caswell went on to serve the country for more than 30 years, flying in three wars, including WWII, Korea and Vietnam. He was awarded the Silver Star, the Distinguished Flying Cross with three Gold Stars, and the Air Medal with five Gold Stars. He details his experiences in his memoir, “My Taking Flight.” “There are many stories,” he said.

Former Carmel Valley artist-turned-author releases debut novel BY KRISTINA HOUCK Having worked as a jewelry maker, sculptor, painter, graphic designer and photographer, former Carmel Valley resident Kerry Daggett has always been creative. “I’m on the go every minute of the day,” she said with a laugh. Originally from New York, Daggett studied fashion design at Utah State University. After college, she took a jewelry class and started her career in jewelry design. Daggett later transitioned from jewelry making to sculpting. “I just kept getting bigger,” she said. “I went from metal to clay, and then I started sculpting bigger pieces with stained glass.” Also a painter, Daggett specializes in landscapes. Today, she spends most of her time as a graphic designer and photographer. “They all kind of blend into each other,” she said. An artist-turned-author, Daggett recently released her first novel, “The Exhausted Goddess.” The book, which features photographs by Daggett, follows Frankie Callahan, a wife and mother, whose life is unravelling. At the end of her rope, Frankie’s marriage and relationship with her daughter are both in disarray. Her best friend has also died. But things change when Frankie finds goddesses all around her. “‘The Exhausted Goddess’ became a joke while I was taking pictures, but then I
realized it wasn’t a joke,” Daggett explained. “We are. By the time you hit 40, you’re exhausted. My characters became the emotions that we all go through. “It’s an imaginative, relatable tale of a contemporary woman’s struggle with her exhaustion, addiction and despair.” Also a mother who has had her fair share of struggles, Daggett’s fictional story is somewhat reflective of real-life events and people. Daggett’s daughter is sick and is still coping with an auto-immune disease. She is pictured on the book cover. “I learned what exhaustion was,” said Daggett, who lived in Carmel Valley for a decade before returning to New York to care for her daughter. She wrote the first three versions of her book at the Starbucks in Del Mar Highlands and downtown Del Mar. “I wrote in the hospital. I wrote in the ER. If I wasn’t at Starbucks, I was in the hospital.” The book took Daggett seven years to write. “All of it came from what evolved along the way,” she said. “It wasn’t just a quick afternoon thing; it’s what would be my advice to somebody else. It was a labor of love.” The book is available on Amazon and on Daggett’s website. A free downloadable PDF of the book will be available Oct. 15-30 at www.theexhaustedgoddess.com.

Pets unite two lonely people in ‘Chapatti’ at North Coast Rep
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY DIANA SAENGER Does romance wane as we age? Does true love come but once in a lifetime? Irish playwright Christian O’Reilly must have pondered these questions when creating the comedy “Chapatti,” which has its West Coast premiere Oct. 21-Nov. 15 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre in Solana Beach. Judith Ivey directs the production that tells the tale of two senior citizens who are alone until they meet each other and discover they have some of the same interests. Ivey, a two-time Tony Award winner for “Steaming” and “Hurlyburly,” said she was excited to get a call from NCRT’s artistic director David Edelstein about directing “Chapatti.” “I grow fonder of this play every day we work on it,” Ivey said. “It’s a beautiful piece of writing, and tells a wonderful story — one that if I was not directing, I would want to see.” Ivey said she found the perfect actors to portray this intimate story. “Because it’s an Irish play, and I’m a stickler for
all those guards down, along with all those habits and the things that come with having lived by yourself for a long time.” Will Dan overcome his depression? Will Betty be willing to change Dan’s life and her own? Discover the answers and see how their animal pals influence this couple in “Chapatti.” “Chapatti” runs Oct. 21-Nov. 15 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach.

Courtesy photo dialect, when I started casting I was fortunate to find two people who had beautiful Irish dialects,” Ivey said. “Also, I knew the characters needed certain qualities. It was the vulnerability … someone stalwart … even feeling cut off from the universe … that I was looking for, because that’s what the story is about.” As it unfolds, Dan (Mark Bramhall) is much more sensitive than he appears. He has lost the wife he dearly loved and adopts a dog he names Chapatti, and then decides to go to London. Now settled in with his dog, Dan visits the local veterinarian to find a dog-sitter. While there, he meets Betty (Anabella Price), who is looking to have some of her 19 cats adopted. “An event brings them together again as the story about protecting ourselves from being lonely turns into a surprise that has Betty and Dan feeling an attraction for each other,” Ivey said. “But it’s not necessarily easy to put
Following successful showings in the past two seasons, Village Viewpoints will offer a reprise of “Thinking Shakespeare Live!” on Sunday, Oct. 25 at 6 p.m. at Village Church, 6225 Paseo Delicias, in Rancho Santa Fe. “Thinking Shakespeare Live!” is a fast-paced, funny, and fascinating guide to the language of Shakespeare created by Old Globe Artistic Director Barry Edelstein who National Public Radio called “one of the country’s leading Shakespeareans.” This special program provides audiences a unique opportunity to learn the methods Edelstein imparts to professional actors in the rehearsal room. As he and three skilled actors demonstrate these techniques live on stage, this entertaining behind-the-scenes look at the creative process offers a primer on the tools used to hear and understand Shakespeare. With humor and insight, “Thinking Shakespeare Live!” brings audiences into the Bard’s world and shows how his masterful poetry can come to life for everyone. “San Diego’s Shakespeare audience is devoted to the Bard, and the Globe, one of the country’s great Shakespeare theatres, always looks for innovative ways to serve it,” said Edelstein. “We created ‘Thinking Shakespeare Live!’ to help our audience have fun while making new connections to Barry Shakespeare.” Viewpoints is co-presented by the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation and the Edelstein Village Church. Doors open at 6 p.m. Wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served with the program beginning at 6:30. Seating is limited; advance purchase is recommended. Tickets are $25 for adults and $10 for students. Tickets may be purchased at www.villageviewpoints.com or by calling (858) 756-6557. Tickets at the door the night of the event will be $30.

Shabbat San Diego events set for Oct. 22-24 throughout county BY KRISTINA HOUCK The Jewish people may be scattered around the world, but for one weekend every year, they come together to celebrate Shabbat. Coordinated by The Shabbos Project, millions of Jews in more than 500 cities in 65 countries are expected to commemorate Shabbat, Judaism’s day of rest and seventh day of the week, during the weekend of Oct. 23-24. “It’s a beautiful moment to get together and unplug,” said Rebbetzin Dini Polichenco, whose husband, Mendel Polichenco, serves as rabbi of Chabad of Carmel Valley. “Our lives are attached. Like an IV (intravenous therapy), we can’t survive without being plugged in. This is a moment to go back to our roots.” The Shabbos Project, an effort to get the world’s Jews to celebrate one Shabbat together, was introduced in South Africa in 2013, went worldwide in 2014 and begins this year at sundown on Friday, Oct. 23. Locally, San Diego Jews are participating in the occasion through Shabbat San Diego activities, which are set to take place throughout the county on the same weekend. More than 25,000 people are expected to participate in Shabbat San Diego, billed as the biggest event in San Diego Jewish community’s history. “When people get together, the strength of unity is incredible,” Polichenco
said. “We can do so much.” In the weeks before Shabbat San Diego, a variety of Shabbat-related activities will be held, including cooking classes, Shabbat services, song sessions and more. The weekend will kick off on Oct. 22 with “Mega Challah Bake,” where participants will learn to mix the ingredients of challah bread, braid dough and make their own bread to take home and bake. Two events are slated for 6:30 p.m. at San Diego Jewish Academy in Carmel Valley and Tifereth Israel Synagogue in San Diego. Registration is open at www.shabbatsandiego.org. Space is limited. For the second year, Stacey Katz of Carmel Valley is co-chairing the Challah bake at San Diego Jewish Academy. “It’s really fun,” said Katz, who has lived in the community for 15 years. “Last year was a super success. We had about 1,200 people in the first year, and this year, we’re hoping for 2,000 people. “It’s a very special weekend,” she added. “It’s amazing seeing Jews all over showing unity as Jews.” A number of hosted Shabbat dinners will be held after Friday services at participating congregations, community organizations and private homes. Celebrated with friends and family, Shabbat is ushered in by lighting candles and reciting a blessing. For people who prefer to participate in Shabbat dinners within the privacy of their
512 VIA DE LA VALLE / 858.876.6386
home, Shabbat San Diego materials are available upon request and registration to help facilitate the Friday dinner. Special services for Shabbat will be held at participating congregations Saturday morning, Oct. 24. There will also be study opportunities, guest lectures and organized events throughout the afternoon. In addition, many locations will provide a Seudah Shlishit, the third meal customarily eaten by Sabbath-observing Jews on Shabbat. Meals will take place around 5 p.m. Finally, to celebrate the conclusion of the global Shabbat and begin the new week, a large ceremony called Havdalah will take begin at 7:30 p.m. at the Town and County Resort & Convention Center in Mission Valley. “We welcome everybody,” Polichenco said. “All you need is a heartbeat. Every person is welcome in our community.” For more about Shabbat San Diego Selwyn Isakow and Robyn Lichter, co-chairs and to register for events, visit shabbatof Shabbat San Diego.

DMF Talks presents UCSD scientist Solana Vista Halloween Carnival Oct. 25 for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Beauty and the Brainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on Nov. 9 DMF Talks presents a free talk, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beauty and the Brain: Blending Art & Science,â&#x20AC;? with scientific imaging â&#x20AC;&#x153;rock starâ&#x20AC;? Tom Deerinck from 6-8 p.m. Nov. 9 at the Powerhouse. For nearly 40 years, UCSD neuroscientist and Del Mar Tom Deerinck resident Deerinck has been creating award-winning images of the microscopic world of stunning beauty and complexity, blurring the line between art and science. Using multimillion-dollar femtosecond pulsed laser and electron microscopes capable of seeing individual atoms, he showcases imagery of the brain and beyond. From the latest images taken using brain-imaging robots, to efforts with Nobel laureates to build and breed molecular spies to study the structure of the brain, the images prove unforgettable in their intricacy and beauty. According to Eric Flem, Nikon communications manager for the annual Small World Imaging competition, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tom Deerinck is what I consider kind of a rock star in the
scientific imaging world.â&#x20AC;? The presentation, followed by questions and answers, begins at 6:30 p.m. A wine and cheese reception precedes it at 6 p.m. Reservations are required and can be made at www.delmarfoundation. Thomas Deerinck is a research scientist at the National Center for Microscopy and Imaging Research and the Center for Research on Biological Systems at UCSD. He specializes in the development of methods for confocal, 2-photon and electron microscopic imaging of biological specimens. He has co-authored more than 100 scientific papers, abstracts and book chapters, and his work has appeared in such prestigious scientific journals as Nature, Science, and Cell. In addition, his images have been featured in museum shows and on the covers of scientific journals. Earlier this year, he was featured in The Scientist Magazine. DMF Talks, the Del Mar Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unique version of TED Talks, draws its speakers from locally based creative, intellectual and scientific leaders. Launched in 2012, DMF Talks aims to entertain, inspire, and inform the Del Mar community through a series of free presentations. Visit www.delmarfoundation.org.

With over 37 years of leading nonprofit service, the Elizabeth Hospice expertly guides families through life’s most difficult transition, providing support and counsel for every age, at every step.

Rosemary for remembrance: Don’t forget versatile herb in kitchen, other uses BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN KITCHEN SHRINK Discussing politics with my nonagenarian uncle, a retired internist and former elbow-rubber with Canada’s social, artistic and political elite, including Pierre Trudeau and A.Y. Jackson (Group of Seven), he recalled a humorous conversation he had with some cabinet ministers in the spring of 1950 about a ludicrous fishing law. I asked him how he remembered this incident with such clarity, and he said he attributes his keen memory to three factors: good genes, good luck and fresh rosemary. The latter he grows in a planting box on his windowsill, inhaling the woodsy perfume daily, and snipping the needles to impart a bittersweet nutty zing to chicken, lamb, stews and soups. (Yes, he also cooks.) Here’s a primer to help you get the most out of this revered Mediterranean herb, a member of the mint family that has not only been jogging memories for centuries, but has been used for digestive ails, toothaches, disinfectants, even a remedy for baldness — not to mention its impressive culinary and
decorative repertoires.
The Healing Herb This hearty perennial likened to lavender has antibacterial, antioxidant, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties from the rich store of rosmarinic acid, along with fragrant essential oils, including camphene, bomeol and cineol. Rife with vitamin A, rosemary amps up ocular and skin health along with protecting delicate mucous membranes. Its iron load pumps up red blood cells, potassium balances fluids to regulate blood pressure and heart rate, and manganese maintains bone integrity, controls blood sugar and acts as a warrior against harmful free radicals. In addition to fiber, copper, calcium, immuneboosting C, and nerve-calming Bs, it’s no wonder rosemary was named Herb of The Year in 2000 by the International Herb Association. Sprig Gigs In ancient Greece and Rome, mourners tossed rosemary sprigs in the graves of their dearly departed to ensure fond memories. Greek scholars wore rosemary wreaths around their heads
The Kitchen Shrink to bolster memory. The herb played a central role in nuptial ceremonies during the English Tudor era. Romantic rosemary was added to wine for celebratory toasts, and given to the bridegroom by his bride to symbolize fidelity. In the 1300s, rosemary oil was first extracted from the herb for apothecary and cosmetic preparations, such as insect repellents, headache treatments, perfumes and bath oils. Rosemary attracts pollinating bees, a boon for vegetable and herb gardeners.
On Pins and Needles • Use long, sturdy sprigs for fragrant kebob skewers for veggies, shrimp or chicken • Snip needles into olive oil, whipped butter,
Greek yogurt, vinegars and citrus juices for zippy dipping sauces, spreads, vinaigrettes and marinades • Use sprigs to replace toothpicks for everything from canapés to cabbage rolls • Twine several sprigs together to make a basting brush • Balance the richness of lamb, the fattiness of pork, the gaminess of duck, the fishiness of salmon and the blandness of chicken (shove a whole sprig in the cavity) • Chop in marinara sauces and meatballs for an authentic Italian flavor • Add to eggs, whether frittatas, omelettes, quiches or devilled • Perk up quick breads and focaccia, muffins, pie crusts, streusel toppings, biscotti and shortbread cookies with an unexpected burst of flavor • Mix into gelatos or ice creams, set in ice cubes or popsicles • Add sprigs to your swigs — jazz up lemonades, iced teas, spritzers and Cosmos • Use in bubble baths, or concoct a pink Himala-

Herb hints As fresh herbs are less pungent than dry ones, use more. The ratio of fresh to dry is 3 to 1. (Three teaspoons or one tablespoon of fresh is equivalent to one teaspoon of dry). Store fresh rosemary loosely wrapped in paper towel in a plastic bag in the warmer part of the refrigerator, while dried ones should be kept in a cool, dry pantry.
LEMON ROSEMARY ROASTED ROOTS 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons fresh chopped rosemary Juice and zest from one lemon Sea salt and cayenne pepper to taste 3 medium redskin potatoes, unpeeled, cut in wedges 4 golden beets, peeled, cut in wedges 2 large carrots, peeled, cut in 1-inch pieces 2 large parsnips, peeled, cut in 1-inch pieces Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together oil, zest, herbs and seasonings. Toss roots into the mixture until well-coated. On a parchment-lined cookie sheet, evenly spread roots in a single layer. Bake for about 45 minutes or until tender and golden, stirring twice. Toss with lemon juice and garnish with fresh chopped rosemary. For additional rosemary recipes, email kitchenshrink@san.rr.com.

Scheduling Treatment: What to Expect with Sclerotherapy for Varicose Veins What Exactly is Sclerotherapy Again? Sclerotherapy is an injection of the chemical sclerosant directly into a varicose vein in order to damage the inside lining of the vein. The subsequent scarring causes the vein to close. The procedure is done in the doctor’s office and takes about thirty minutes, sometimes as little as five, depending on the size and number of the varicose veins to be treated. After the injection, pressure is applied over the veins in order to prevent the blood from returning once you stand up.
Compression stockings are recommended for several days or weeks post-procedure to maintain pressure and maximize effectiveness. Repeated sessions are sometimes necessary, depending on the extent of the varicose veins. How Long Will I Take to Recover? There is no actual recovery period from the procedure itself, and patients can walk out of the office immediately after completion. Every body has its own recovery pace (think about people who are more susceptible to drowsiness-causing medications, or the stories of people who wake up during surgeries), so there is no one answer. Generally, you want to take it easy for a couple of days following treatment, and do avoid strenuous exercise for the following few days. Bed rest, however, is not recommended. When is the Best Time to Get Sclerotherapy? There is no right or wrong time to get

sclerotherapy or laser treatment. But there are a few situations you may want to consider: • Since you also will be wearing compression stockings, decide how affected you are by weather. If you are susceptible to heat and like to wear skirts or shorts that expose the legs, you may schedule treatment for more pants-friendly weather. But this is not a rule, and many patients are not bothered by their end-of-summer sclerotherapy treatments. • Also, some patients experience initial side effects such as itching, bruising, pain, or blistering in the area of treatment. If this is something that might concern you, I recommend that you wait for the cooler weather so you can keep covered more comfortably. • Unlike laser treatment, which treats the small red veins called telangiectasias and requires patients to stay out of the sun for two weeks following the procedure, sclerotherapy has no such requirement. However, if you are worried about the temporary appearance of blotches or bruising, you may want to avoid
scheduling treatment the week prior to your big beach vacation. • If you are pregnant, now is not the time for sclerotherapy. What Are the Benefits of Sclerotherapy? Sclerotherapy has over an 80% effectiveness rate among patients. Among its many benefits, sclerotherapy costs much less than surgery or EVLT/RFA (endovenous laser therapy or radiofrequency ablation) and requires no hospital stay. And sclerotherapy is convenient: You can immediately return to work and most of your normal activities. In a short amount of time, varicose veins can be either greatly reduced or completely neutralized, giving you back your healthylooking skin.

Davidson returns to Rancho Santa Fe, building new homes at Enclave Davidson Communities has returned to Rancho Santa Fe, recently releasing its first phase of new homes at Enclave Rancho Santa Fe, an intimate neighborhood of 13 luxury residences behind private gates with panoramic views of the golf course at The Crosby. Located at 7915 Silvery Moon Lane in Rancho Santa Fe, Enclave is easily accessible off Del Dios Highway by turning onto Bing Crosby Blvd. and proceeding to the private gates on the left. A spectacular new model home is now open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Monday from 1 to 5 p.m. For more information, call 858367-9600. Three floor plans offer up to five bedrooms and five-and-a-half bath on home sites that average approximately 7,500 square feet on a cul-de-sac street. Enclave was thoughtfully designed to accommodate a variety of family configurations, with downstairs or dual master suites available. Phase One is now selling from $1,199,900. Long considered a trendsetter in indoor/outdoor architecture, Davidson has designed these homes to flow seamlessly from dining and gathering spaces to an oversized outdoor living room with fireplace. This contiguous, covered outdoor room maximizes ground-

floor living and entertaining space, and adds bonus square footage to plans that range up to 3,881 square feet. Enclave’s model home showcases the Plan Three, a twostory residence that lives like a single story home. The Plan Three features a downstairs master and offers four bedrooms plus den, and four bathrooms plus powder room. The bonus room can be converted to a second full master suite, and the den can be converted into an optional fifth bedroom. Children living at Enclave are eligible to attend Solana Santa Fe Elementary, Earl Warren Middle School and Torrey Pines High School. “New construction, especially at this price point, is rare in Rancho Santa Fe,” said Cathie McGill, vice president of sales and marketing for Davidson Communities. Davidson’s previous new home communities in the area include Cielo in Rancho Santa Fe, honored in 2000 as “Community of the Year” by the National Association of Home Builders. Several years ago, Davidson built another popular local neighborhood, Arista at The Crosby in Rancho Santa Fe. Elsewhere in San Diego’s North County, Davidson has released its final phase at New Crest Court, an enclave of 16 new homes at 1600 New Crest Court in the award-winning Carlsbad School District. For information, call 760-7363100. Davidson is also selling it its final phases of large family homes at Arterro at La Costa in Carlsbad. For more information on Arterro, call 760-632-8400. continued from page B4
At the time, the site housed a branch of San Diego-based Café 222. Interested in the corner spot, Gruber contacted the restaurant owner and learned she was going to list the location for sale. “I was lucky,” he said. Gruber’s general contractor helped transition the eatery to Americana almost overnight. The restaurant opened for business during the day, and at night, the team installed new floors and kitchen equipment. He proudly displays his first customer’s check on the wall in his office. “It turned out to be my dream and better than I thought it would ever be,” Gruber said. “I got really lucky and I worked really hard. The harder you work, the luckier you get.” Offering indoor and outdoor seating, Americana has space for about 140 people. The restaurant is busiest on the weekends and during the summer. “It’s a dream that’s come true and I’ve been able to maintain it for 15 years,” said Gruber, who has a 50-year lease. Serving seven days a week, Americana opens at 7 a.m. everyday and closes at 9 or 10 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, depending on the time of year. The restaurant closes at 3 p.m. Sundays and Mondays. Living just down the street, Gruber is at the location on most days. “I live here in town and I’m a member of the community,” said Gruber, who has named dishes after his wife, a local physician named Caron, and their children, 13-year-old Lina and 12-year-old Dylan. “Even on the days I take off, I still come by and make sure everything is going OK,” he said. As if his schedule weren’t busy enough, Gruber has plans to open another shop on the same street in the Village of Del Mar. The shop will be Americana’s version of an ice cream parlor, located at the former site of Mariposa Boutique and named in honor of the late shop owner, Margaret Ann Young. The store will offer shakes, sundaes, smoothies and other treats, including baked goods from Americana. “I think it will be a nice addition to Del Mar,” said Gruber, adding that the shop’s name might be Maggie’s Malt Shop or Maggie’s Milk Bar. “I feel lucky,” he said. “My life is rich. I’m lucky to be living in this town, doing what I’m doing.” Visit www.americanarestaurant.com.
