Water board members balk at proposed 9-percent rate hike BY JOE TASH Directors with the Santa Fe Irrigation District are mulling whether to impose a 9 percent rate increase on their customers in 2018, on the heels of 9 percent increases levied in 2016 and 2017. The proposed increase for 2018 is part of a three-year rate plan approved by the board in 2016. However, the board was urged at its meeting on Thursday, Oct. 19, to hold off on the third installment of the rate plan, and instead

consider changing the way it calculates rates for the largest water users, many of whom live in Rancho Santa Fe. (The district also serves Solana Beach and Fairbanks Ranch.) The request came from Bob Hall, manager of the Rancho Santa Fe Association, and Greg Gruzdowich, a former water board member who now sits on the Association’s water committee.

BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Del Mar is taking a stand against President Donald Trump’s efforts to loosen restrictions on offshore drilling and energy exploration in federal waters — the first city south of Los Angeles County to do so. The Del Mar City Council unanimously agreed on Oct. 16 to call on California’s congressional delegation to join the city in making clear that expanded offshore drilling poses too great a threat to the state’s $44.8 billion ocean economy. The move puts Del Mar alongside 10 other California cities opposed to Trump’s executive order that aims to undo a host of protections Barack Obama put in place shortly before leaving office. Under Trump’s America-First Offshore Energy Strategy — signed in April amid a flurry of executive orders in the run-up to his 100th day in office — federal waters could reopen to offshore drilling for the first time in decades, primarily by

changing the process for allowing the sale of drilling leases and by allowing energy exploration in marine sanctuaries. No new drilling leases have been approved in Pacific federal waters since 1984 or in California-managed waters since the catastrophic Santa Barbara spill of 1969, a disaster that helped give rise to the modern environmental movement. “Today we’re unleashing American energy and clearing the way for thousands and thousands of high-paying American energy jobs,” Trump said at the April 28 White House signing ceremony. “Our country is blessed with incredible natural resources, including abundant offshore oil and natural gas reserves. But the federal government has kept 94 percent of these offshore areas closed for exploration and production … This deprives our country of potentially thousands and thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in SEE DRILLING, A24

Utility lines, downtown streetscape, Shores Park first in line for Measure Q windfall BY SEBASTIAN MONTES With a laundry list of projects poised to cost tens of millions of dollars in the decade ahead, Del Mar took its first tentative steps this week toward spending the $2.25 million that will be generated by June 30 from the 1-cent sales tax increase voters approved last November. At a special administrative meeting on Oct. 23, the city council committed three initiatives to the Measure Q funding pool: undergrounding utility lines throughout the city, the multiyear facelift of Del Mar’s downtown corridor, and the new master plan for Del Mar Shores Park, the city’s 5.3-acre park at Camino del Mar and 9th Street. When voters approved Measure Q by more than 33 percentage points last fall, the ballot listed those three projects as examples SEE MEASURE Q, A8

Woman charged as police investigate drugs furnished to students BY TERI FIGUEROA San Diego police are investigating possible drug sales by at least one person — a high school parent — who may have provided substances to teenagers at a private San Diego high school and possibly other schools as well, authorities said last week. A Carmel Valley woman has been charged thus far in the investigation involving students at Cathedral Catholic High School. According to court documents, 48-year-old Kimberly Quach faces 37 counts, including 10

charges of employing a minor to sell or carry marijuana, and 16 counts of furnishing marijuana to a minor over the age of 14. There are also two charges that she sold or provided a minor with suboxone, a controlled substance associated with treating opiod dependence, and one charge of selling or providing a minor with alprazolam (Xanax), a tranquilizer. Other charges include five counts of child abuse, one count of theft by false impersonation and an accusation that she

provided a place for people to obtain drugs. The alleged crimes took place sometime between Jan. 1 and Sept. 28, the day Quach was arrested. She remained jailed Wednesday, Oct. 18 in lieu of $200,000 bail. She has pleaded not guilty. The Public Defender’s office is representing her, but declined comment Thursday, Oct. 19. Kevin Eckery, vice chancellor with the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego, said Cathedral Catholic officials were made aware SEE DRUGS, A24

Santa Fe Irrigation District seeks applicants for open seat on board of directors BY JOE TASH Augie Daddi, a member of the board of directors of the Santa Fe Irrigation District, is stepping down from his seat as of Nov. 1, according to the district. Daddi, who served on the board from 2005 until 2010, and then was re-elected to a new four-year term in 2014, is leaving the board due to personal reasons, according to a district news release. The district provides water to some

20,000 residential, commercial and agricultural customers in Solana Beach, Rancho Santa Fe and Fairbanks Ranch. Directors are elected by division, and Daddi represents Division 5, which covers the southwest section of Solana Beach. The board of directors is considering making an appointment to fill out the remainder of Daddi’s term, which runs through December 2018. The seat will be up for election in November 2018.

Applicants must live in the district and be registered to vote. The board is planning to interview qualified applicants at its meeting on Nov. 16, and possibly make an appointment at that time. At its regular meeting on Thursday, Oct. 19, the board was told by Paula de Sousa Mills, the district’s legal counsel, that holding a special election during an off-year is expensive, and that they have SEE SEATS, A24

Sheriff's: Men tried to lure children into car near Solana Beach school BY LYNDSAY WINKLEY Two men tried to lure children walking home from a Solana Beach school into their dirty car last week, and sheriff’s investigators are asking the public to help find them. A 13-year-old boy told deputies he was walking home from Earl Warren Middle School on Stevens Avenue about 3 p.m. when a truck pulled alongside him, sheriff’s Sgt. Joe Tomaiko. A passenger in the newer-model Chevrolet sedan then asked, “Hey kid, you wanna get in?” The child ignored the man, but heard him utter the same question to other nearby children. The boy told investigators he didn’t see any children get into the car. One man was described as white and in his late 20s with brown curly hair. He was wearing sunglasses. The other man was described as being white, in his early 30s and bald. Anyone with information about the pair was asked to call the Sheriff’s Department at (858) 565-5200. – LyndsayWinkley writes for The San Diego Union-Tribune

Dennis Moore: The man behind Del Mar’s safer horse racing BY TOD LEONARD “Write this down,” Chris Moore said. She was serious. The wife of Dennis Moore, the track superintendent who will prepare the racing surfaces for the upcoming Breeders’ Cup at Del Mar, was speaking of her husband’s love of his sport, of his dedication to the lives of horses and horsemen, of his commitment to do whatever it takes to get the job done. “Google the Riudoso Downs flood and watch it on YouTube,” Chris said. “It will give you a whole new respect for my husband.” The video from July of 2008 reveals that the racetrack in the hills of southern New Mexico was badly flooded after the remnants of Hurricane Dolly dumped rain on the area for 33 straight hours. In the aftermath, about one-third of the racetrack was underwater. Dennis Moore was the superintendent of Hollywood Park at the time. He and Chris, then a kindergarten teacher, were about to leave on much-needed vacation in Hawaii. Then Dennis got the call from Ruidoso Downs. They needed him. Badly. “He rebuilt that racetrack in four days,” Chris said with obvious pride in her voice. “He’s the best there is. He is ethical. He is moral. He’s the most loyal of employees.” She recalled that a month after the flood, Dennis returned to Ruidoso, bur forgot his heart medication. He went to the Walmart there to pick up a prescription, and the pharmacist also happened to be the town’s mayor. Dennis tried to pay, but the mayor wouldn’t take his money. “Son, we owe you,” he said. “You saved this town from not having racing.” Moore made a different kind of save at Del Mar this year. Following the deaths of 17 horses during the summer meet of 2016 and the bad publicity that came with it, Del Mar CEO and President Joe Harper went searching for answers to make the racing safer, and he convinced Moore to give up his down time as the superintendent at Santa Anita to do an overhaul of the dirt track at Del Mar and oversee the entire meet. Moore’s work would be under intense scrutiny. “I’ve had two heart attacks and seven stents put in. I always feel the pressure,” Moore said. The result of Moore’s work and numerous others: five fatal breakdowns (not including one horse’s heart attack) — three coming during racing on the dirt and another in training. A “night and day” difference, Harper called it. “I think it went well,” Moore said. “The fatalities were way down, and that’s what we wanted. I’d rather not have any fatalities, but some things you can’t control. Horses are going to break down.” The turnaround came at probably the most critical time in Del Mar’s history. The summer meet was a buildup for the track’s first hosting of the Breeders’ Cup on Nov. 3-4. Owners and their horses from around the world will gather here for 13 races worth $28 million. Moore has prepared tracks for the Breeders’ Cup three previous times — once at Hollywood Park and twice at Santa Anita, and he’s experienced only one breakdown, last

But anytime you know that somebody’s life, an animal’s life is on the line, you’re always on edge, and you never want to see anything happen.” On Oct. 6, Moore and his crew began preparing the Del Mar track for the Bing Crosby season that begins on Nov. 1. He said he expects the work and the track conditions to be “exactly the same” as they were for the summer racing. The key efforts on the racing surface were made earlier in the year, when the track was scraped to its base while the banks on the turns were increased. Moore found some inconsistencies in how smooth it was, and those repairs were made and then checked with high-grade engineering equipment. The 3.5-inch cushion of dirt that is called the pad was added, and it was checked every day of racing for its moisture content. Moore points out that tremendous strides have been made over time in the scientific approach to the track. He has worked closely with Dr. Mick Peterson, who has done extensive research into the biomechanics of horses and their interaction with racing surfaces. Too, Moore said he only contributed to what was an overall better program at Del Mar in the summer. It included more breaks during the morning workouts so the track could be smoothed and greater scrutiny of horses by veterinarians and track officials. “A complete team effort,” Moore said. While Moore insists the Del Mar dirt track was very similar to Santa Anita’s, there were concerns among some handicappers and horsemen that the horses responded differently to it than in the past. That speculation was further fueled when trainer Bob Baffert’s Arrogate, the No. 1 horse in the world, lost twice during the meet. Arrogate is expected to return to Del Mar and be among the contenders in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. “Overall, the response was pretty SEE DENNIS MOORE, A26

Torrey Pines teens fundraise to bring AEDs to campus BY KAREN BILLING Two Torrey Pines High School students are working to help save lives and raise awareness about sudden cardiac arrest. Senior Ryan Poe and junior Jacob Li led a fundraising effort that resulted in the purchase of two new automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to be installed at easily accessible areas on the Torrey Pines campus. Sudden cardiac arrest is the number one killer of student athletes and the number two killer for teens under age 25. One in 300 kids has a heart condition that puts them at risk. Jacob, a basketball player, and Ryan, a field hockey and lacrosse athlete, were each identified with a heart abnormality as middle schoolers which could have led to sudden cardiac arrest. Each were diagnosed at a free teen heart screening provided by the Eric Paredes Save A Life Foundation in 2014. With a cause so close to their hearts, the two led fundraisers in collaboration with the Torrey Pines High School Foundation, school athletic teams and the local Jersey Mike’s. “I think it shows a lot of leadership, that they took charge of this and brought awareness to an

When it comes to sudden cardiac arrest, time is of the essence —for each minute defibrillation is delayed, the chance of survival is reduced by approximately 10 percent. While there were previously three AEDs on the Torrey Pines campus, most were in locked locations that weren’t accessible to the field or other common campus areas during after-school hours. Head Athletic Trainer Richi Klapmeier has one in his office and is able to act as a “mobile AED” with the use of his golf cart. “There is always someone on the fields, the usage is constant and we wanted to make sure that the AED

They picked places near a large painted Falcon head — an easily identifiable place to direct someone in an emergency. The first AED was mounted on the restroom building inside the football stadium. The second AED will be mounted on the girls softball dugout, adjacent to the top fields that are used for a variety of sports, as well as the tennis courts. Having the AEDs located in places that are so often in use by the public is useful for more than just TPHS students, it’s a service for the whole community.

Andrew Shatté speaking to the One Day University audience members Oct. 14.

Adult students enthralled by top professors at One Day University BY LOIS ALTER MARK "There's something special about teaching a group of people who are there for the sheer love of learning rather than merely checking a box on their degree or fulfilling a requirement,” said Dr. Andrew Shatté Oct. 14 about Dr. Robert Greenberg presenting his lecture on “The Power of Resilience and the Science of Stress” at One Day University in San Diego. One Day University brings together the most popular professors from top schools around the country for Dr. Andrew half-day events which attract adult “students,” Shatté many of whom have long since graduated college and just want to continue learning. “One Day U audiences are smart, mature and accomplished professionally,” Shatté Professor continued. “If you can wow Jeremi Suri these folks, it feels like a genuine achievement." Shatté definitely wowed the audience of 225 who came to the Auditorium at the Scripps Research Institute to hear him, Professor Jeremi Suri and Dr. Robert Greenberg speak about the subjects that are their passion. In fact, the audience was wowed by all three presenters – just like the undergraduates who usually sit in their classrooms. “We look for award-winning professors who receive the highest ratings from their students,” explained Steven Schragis, who founded One Day University in 2005 after bringing his own daughter to college and realizing that the freshmen’s parents were wishing they were going back to school, too. “Their subject matter is informative

and interesting, and they are entertaining speakers who know how to keep an audience rapt.” Shatté was voted the best professor by students at the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Arts and Sciences in 2003 and, in 2006, he received the Dean’s Award for Distinguished Teaching. Suri, who spoke about “The Impossible Presidency: From Washington and Jefferson to Obama and Trump,” holds the Mack Brown Distinguished Chair for Leadership in Global Affairs at the University of Texas at Austin. In 2007, Smithsonian Magazine named him one of America’s “Top Young Innovators” in the Arts and Sciences. Greenberg – a.k.a. the “Elvis of music history and appreciation,” according to the Bangor Daily News – presented “Music as a Mirror of History: 300 Years in 60 Minutes.” He has been designated an official “Steinway Artist,” and has been awarded three Nicola de Lorenzo Composition Prizes and three Meet-The-Composer Grants. Students took notes in the examination blue books distributed before the event started, writing down important takeaways from each speaker. Suri reminded the audience of the importance of learning from history. He encouraged mentoring young people to get involved in public service, saying he has so much faith in our kids, he would happily replace the Texas legislature with his undergraduate students. “I will be back in 10 years and I promise we will have a new President and she will be doing everything differently,” he said. Greenberg demonstrated how the environment shapes the style of music, mirroring the larger culture. “For a composer, music acts as a diary,” he explained. “Their music will naturally reflect something of themselves and the world in which they’re living.” Shatté shared the secret to happiness. “Transitory things don’t make us happy,” SEE TEACHERS, A24

NFL’s Drew Brees bringing flag football league to Carmel Valley BY KAREN BILLING On Sunday afternoon, New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees was on the road in Green Bay, leading his team to a 26-17 victory over the Packers. On Friday night in New Orleans, Brees was busy coaching the back-to-back games of sons Baylen and Bowen in his Football ‘N’ America Youth Flag Football League. Brees founded the new flag football league in Louisiana this fall and hopes to take the league nationwide, starting next spring with Carmel Valley. His aim is for Football ‘N’ America, FNA for short, to be the best way for boys and girls in kindergarten through eighth grade to learn America’s game in a non-contact, co-ed, family-friendly and community-focused league. “I’m very excited to bring it to San Diego,” said Brees, who started his career as a San Diego Charger and still lives in Del Mar in the off-season. His children attend San Diego schools in the springtime and played flag football with dad as coach with Friday Night Lights — one memorable match-up in Carmel Valley last spring pitted Brees’ son against LA Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers’ son. The 13-week season from March to June will have eight to 10 regular season games, all played on Friday

Drew Brees afternoons and evenings. There will be end-of-season playoffs and a national championship tournament in Louisiana. “Playing flag football were some of my best memories as a kid,” said Brees, who played flag football until he reached high school — the first time he ever put on pads was as a freshman. “Flag football prepared me really well for tackle football, the techniques and the fundamentals that I learned through flag carried over.” Through non-contact flag football, FNA offers a safe way for kids to learn and play the game of football. “Ultimately this sport teaches so many life lessons, I’ve learned so much from the game of football about team work, hard work,

He said sometimes in tackle football, only a couple players get the touches and everyone else kind of bounces against each other. In flag, regardless of a player’s skill level or experience, they get to be involved in the game and have fun. And it can be a great segue into tackle football if a player wants to

take that next step, he said. Brees founded FNA in partnership with Del Mar/Rancho Santa Fe resident Chris Stuart, president and CEO of Encore Sports, and ProCamps. Brees’ target is to make the league “the gold standard of youth flag football,” utilizing research of flag football leagues across the country and learning from his own experience and perspective as a player, coach and a parent. “There is no standard for flag football in America. There’s all different rules, philosophies, some play five on five, some play seven on seven, sometimes there’s blocking, sometimes not, it’s all over the

place,” Brees said. “The rules are the same in little league baseball all over the country, I feel like there needs to be the same standardization for flag football. And it needs to be done in a way that helps kids have as much fun as possible, to help them develop life skills and team-building in a family-friendly environment where everyone’s on the same playing field.” FNA plays six vs. six, there’s no kickoffs, quarterbacks can’t run with the ball, spinning and jumping are permitted for a ball carrier but there’s no diving. No blocking, tackling or stripping of the ball is allowed. Foul play or unsportsmanlike conduct by anyone is not tolerated. For safety, all players are required to wear a protective mouthpiece. As a father of four, Brees feels very strongly about making sure coaching in his league is as easy as possible for any parent that has the time and desire to get involved. He said he is lucky that so far his two boys have wanted to play a sport he knows and loves well but he has made a commitment to be involved in whatever his kids do — even if daughter Rylen and son Callen pick a sport or activity he is not as experienced with. To help achieve that level-playing field and encourage parent SEE BREES, A24

The program will include two guest speakers: Erika Morgan, executive director of the San Diego Energy District, and Sachu Constantine, policy director of the Center for Sustainable Energy. Their talks will be followed by a question and answer panel discussion. For more information, contact Environmental Sustainability Manager Clem Brown at (858) 755-9313, x187 or cbrown@delmar.ca.us.

FROM MEASURE Q, A1 of how the money could be spent. The city, however, has never explicitly stated what projects would be chosen, nor has it laid out the criteria for how those decisions will be made. The issue materialized during the council’s hour-long deliberation on Oct. 23, its first substantial discussion of Measure Q since the election. Councilmen Dwight Worden and Dave Druker were uneasy with the notion of committing Q funds without giving the community a chance to suggest other projects that might be better suited. They wanted to endorse the three projects but not have the decision become official until the council’s Nov. 20 meeting. In the meantime, the community could weigh

in with other proposals. “If we say we’re going to do undergrounding in five years, we may not have any money left,” Worden said. “If we say we’re going to do undergrounding in eight years, we may have money to rebuild the library. I want the community to have the chance to come down and argue those kinds of issues.” But the other three councilmembers felt community input was premature. “Why collect feedback before we’re ready to do something about it?” said Councilwoman Ellie Haviland. The council settled on making a preliminary commitment to the three projects, holding a public hearing to determine Measure Q criteria, and evaluating other proposals for Q funding as the city’s financial picture takes clearer shape. Because costs for consultants and design work on the Shores Park master plan have already been allocated, the council does not expect to need Q funding for that project this fiscal year. Some Q funding might go toward accelerating aspects of the Downtown Streetscape project, a $5 million package of infrastructure and aesthetic

upgrades to Camino del Mar between 9th and 15th streets. The council has committed $1 million toward the first annual construction cycle, which will run between January and May — mainly to repave the street surface, rebuild sidewalks and redesign intersections. Late February or early March would be the latest the council will be able to use Q funds to expand the work that will be done during the upcoming construction cycle. The biggest financial uncertainty is the long-sought undergrounding initiative. Estimates have ranged from $25 million to $50 million to bury Del Mar’s remaining above-ground utility lines. The council committed $500,000 to get the project moving, and also agreed to begin appointing the project team that will lead the undergrounding effort, first by crafting a budget and finding a consultant. The council had already designated a subcommittee of the city’s Finance Committee to provide oversight and to track expenditures. Dan Quirk, chairman of that subcommittee, was hopeful that the project team can have its first meeting within the next few weeks. Once the project team is up and

running, he said, undergrounding can begin sooner rather than later in neighborhoods that have already done the necessary design work. All that would remain, he said, would be for the city to cut a check. “I know I’m gung-ho on this, but I think it actually is that easy. I actually don’t think this project is as complicated as we’re making it out to be,” he said. “I think it’s 15 smaller, bite-sized projects. … We’re not doing the entire city all at once; we’re doing all of these smaller projects separately.” But with a slew of major questions yet to be worked out — including the expected time frame, options for financing, a decision on whether to reimburse homeowners who have already undergrounded their utility lines, and finding ways to help people who can’t afford to connect their homes — Mayor Terry Sinnott insisted that the undertaking will not be so simple. “Without good communication, without clearly understanding how things are going to get paid for, this whole thing will crater, it’ll crater very badly,” he said. “So we’ve got to be really careful but I think it’s time to move forward and get going.”

Del Mar Hills students pitch erosion solutions to Deputy Mayor Dwight Worden Fourth grade students at Del Mar Hills Academy presented prototypes Oct. 17 for mitigating the impacts of local coastal erosion during a special exhibition in the school’s performing arts center. The interactive event attended by Deputy Mayor of Del Mar Dwight Worden and other community stakeholders was the culmination of weeks of intense, integrated learning through the lens of Design Thinking. Led by a collaborative team of grade level teachers and STEAM+ specialists, with the support of the District Innovation and Design team led by Dr. Laura Spencer and Principal Julie Lerner, students contributed to the solutions surrounding immediate and future local beach erosion by applying their understanding of the California coastal region and ways to control erosion. In preparation for the Design Thinking Challenge, classroom teachers Amy Smith, Stephanie Sullins, and Tori Hemerick facilitated student understanding and writing based on the causes and effects of erosion through engaging news footage and research texts. Science teacher Nancy Swanberg provided hands-on learning for students through an erosion experiment in the science lab, as well as data analysis of erosion rates.

Kilroy Realty to host solar ribbon-cutting event at Kilroy Centre Del Mar Nov. 2 Kilroy Realty is holding a solar ribbon-cutting event on Thursday, Nov. 2, at Kilroy Centre Del Mar. Working in partnership with Nautilus Solar, nine Kilroy Realty properties in California will undergo the solar project to collect and convert solar rays into useable, clean energy. These solar panels provide shaded canopy parking for residents, proactively source clean and renewable energy, reduce the community’s dependence on non-renewable fuels, and strengthen the resiliency of our energy grid, according to a press release. “Kilroy believes it is our duty to be responsible stewards of the communities we are a part of, and integrating solar is a natural step for us in setting the industry standard,” said Sara Neff, senior vice president of Sustainability at Kilroy Realty. “These solar projects demonstrate our ongoing commitment to sustainable practices during the entire lifecycle of our properties – from design and development to construction and operations.” Nine Kilroy properties, including six in San Diego including One Paseo, a mixed-use development opening early 2019 in Carmel Valley, three in Los Angeles, and two in Northern California, will generate 8.4 million kilowatts annually, power 786 residential homes,

and provide 216 new green jobs for the economy. The six San Diego projects will offset energy usage by 65 percent - and generate 6 million kilowatts annually, power 558 residential homes, and create 138 green jobs in the local economy, the press release said. This project is part of Kilroy’s commitment and contribution to San Diego’s Climate Action Plan to achieve 100 percent citywide renewable energy usage by 2035, and to maintain the city’s rank as one of the nation’s leading cities in solar power. Kilroy is recognized by the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark as the North American leader in sustainability and was ranked first among 178 North American participants across all asset types. At the end of the third quarter in 2017, the company’s properties were 51 percent LEED certified and 72 percent of eligible properties were Energy Star certified. The event will include a ribbon-cutting ceremony, guest remarks and catered lunch on Thursday, Nov. 2 at 11 a.m. at the Kilroy Centre Del Mar at 3661 Valley Center Drive, San Diego, 92130, in the courtyard between Buildings 3 and 4.

Del Mar river mouth excavation project slated for mid-November The San Dieguito Wetlands Restoration Project team plans to excavate the buildup of sand that is blocking the San Dieguito River tidal channel, with mobilization of equipment expected to start on Nov. 8 and last for approximately two weeks. The same process of sand removal and replacement of sand for beach replenishment has been used in past years to open the river mouth and protect the new, 150 acres of wetlands. The plan is to excavate about 19,000 cubic yards of high quality beach sand from the San Dieguito River channel east of the Highway 101 bridge and place it on the beach south of the river mouth. Removing the sand periodically is one of the most important components in the overall health of the wetlands, since the aquatic life, vegetation and wildlife in

the nature preserve are connected and dependent on daily, salt water tidal flows for their sustenance. The excavation project will enhance the natural tidal flows between the Pacific Ocean and the hundreds of acres of newly formed and existing habitats that depend on daily tidal flushing. Once the work is completed, there will be more sand on Del Mar beaches and more salt water flowing through the river channel as hundreds of millions of gallons of ocean water bring fish, plankton and nutrients via the river mouth into rare coastal habitats to constantly reinvigorate the eco-system. Excavation of the Channel Excavation approvals were granted by federal, state and local authorities. Mobilization of equipment (i.e. front-end loaders, excavators, haul trucks and

pump) will start Wednesday, Nov. 8 and is expected to be completed by Nov. 22. During excavation operations, beach access to the south side of the beach that is west of Highway 101 will be closed for safety purposes. Equipment may work in the area between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., Monday through Friday; times will be determined by tidal influence and wave action. On Saturday, equipment may be deployed from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. as needed. Equipment will be parked overnight and cordoned off for safety on either the north or south side of the San Dieguito River based on tidal activity or logistics. Please contact Kelly Sarber, the San Dieguito Wetlands community liaison, at (760) 613-5994 for any questions about the sand excavation project in Del Mar. —Press release

DEL MAR HISTORY

Sometimes history can be spooky! Can you imagine hiking up on the Del Mar bluffs, just north of the San Dieguito Lagoon river mouth, and coming across this skull! That is exactly what happened in 1929 to Malcolm Rogers, pioneer archeologist for the San Diego Museum of Man, when he was doing some excavations on the bluff. Estimated to be 5,400 years old, “Del Mar Man” as he was called, was most likely of the Ipai or Kumeyaay tribe. How amazing is this to think of Native Americans living and thriving right here in Del Mar so very long ago. Thanks to Nancy Ewing and her book Del Mar Looking Back for all the good history. For more information about her book and the Del Mar Historical Society, go to www.delmarhistorical society.org or drop the Del Mar Historical Society a note at 225 9th St., Del Mar, CA 92014 or email info@delmarhistorical society.org.

Activities will include all the fundamental skills such as passing, evasive running and tackling drills. Throughout the day, touch rugby will be played for each age group with the U8s starting at 9.30 a.m. A demonstration touch game will be held at 11.30 a.m. with the U18 team taking on their coaches. In 2018 the Mustangs under 14 team is touring Ireland and as a fundraiser the Mustangs Club are putting on a U8 to U14 Rugby Camp Monday through Wednesday of Thanksgiving week (9 a.m. to 12 p.m.). This will also be run by the Institute of Rugby with a surprise international player/coach to be announced. New and existing players from U8 to U14 are welcome at the camp with registration on the Mustangs Website. Training for the rugby season starts the following week so this is an excellent way to jump into the rugby season. Rugby has expanded rapidly across

Southern California with over 65 high schools now having rugby as an ASB club sport and over 30 offering girls’ rugby. The Mustangs run one of the largest youth programs in SoCal and have garnered a national reputation for producing high caliber rugby players and teams. Success on the field for the U18 team has led to college opportunities for a number of Mustangs alumni with players from the last few years joining college rugby programs at West Point, Cal Berkeley, Saint Mary’s and University of Arizona to name a few. All of the Mustang coaches are nationally trained and certified, and pass stringent safety and background checks. The Mustangs have a rigorous “Coaches Coach” program run by Matt Hawkins, former coach and captain of the USA 7’s national team. Hawkins, who founded and runs a youth rugby academy – The Institute of Rugby, has both his son’s playing with the U8 and U10 Mustangs. “The Mustangs Club has a philosophy of teaching the basic skills in a fun and safe environment. It is these core skills learned from a young age that provide the platform for young ruggers to reach their potential and take advantage of the many college opportunities that exist in rugby today.” Do not miss the opportunity to expose your young athletes to this fun, exciting sport right here in your own neighborhood.

Champions: Torrey Pines High School Girls Volleyball team.

TPHS Girls Volleyball team racks up another tournament championship The Santa Barbara Tournament of Champions was held last weekend, and the Torrey Pines High School Girls Volleyball emerged victorious. Playing undefeated, the Falcons met several teams that tested their mettle. After easily handling Newport Harbor in three sets, TPHS met Mira Costa. Over four sets, the Falcons kept their fans on edge as they dropped an uncharacteristic set by a wide margin. But they regrouped and advanced to face Corona del Mar in the semi-finals, winning again in three sets. That set the stage for the championship match, against Archbishop Mitty (in from San Jose). The teams had met twice before

this season, each winning once. In a thrilling finale in Santa Barbara, the Lady Falcons closed out the weekend in three sets with superb gamesmanship and determination against Archbishop Mitty. TPHS players awarded recognition for the All-Tourney Team were Daniella Fornaciari and Emily Fitzner, and given recognition as Most Valuable Player was Kiara McNulty. The TPHS team plays its final game of the season on Friday, Oct. 27, at home, and the seniors will be honored before the match. The team has been playing spectacularly, as reflected by their #2 state ranking and #7 position across the nation.

CCA Lady Ravens honor three graduating players BY KAREN BILLING The Canyon Crest Academy girls tennis team held a senior send-off prior to their match on Oct. 18. As has become a special tradition for the Lady Ravens, nine-year Coach Larry Belinsky celebrated the departing senior players, Charlotte Alexander, Pallavi Tangirala and HannaMei Levine. Belinsky said the three players were the last remaining members of the school’s first girls tennis CIF Division 1 Championship in 2014. “As freshman, they helped create school history,” Belinsky said, noting that in addition to the CCA boys tennis team title in 2012, it is one of his proudest achievements. Belinsky took the time to honor all three players individually. He said Hanna Mei has been an “absolute joy” to coach, with an “unselfish attitude,” she was grateful for the opportunity to play and contribute to the overall success of the team. “I will always remember her for being so kind, sweet and respectful,” Belinsky said. The coach complimented Pallavi’s ability to balance a difficult and demanding academic workload as well as her commitment to the tennis team. “Year after year she dedicated herself to becoming a better player, however, I will always be most grateful for her leadership and kind spirit,

Belinsky said that the CCA girls tennis program never had a stronger number three singles player until Charlotte joined as a freshman in 2014. She held that position for all four years. “I will always remember her

for being a fierce and determined warrior and for displaying an intensity that became her personal calling card,” Belinsky said. “It was ‘game-on’ whenever she stepped onto the court.” This week the 8-2 Lady Ravens, the three seed, begin play in the CIF Open Division playoffs. Undefeated Torrey Pines is seeded number one.

TERRY SINNOTT

Welcome to The Breeders’ Cup

y welcome is not directed at our visitors, although they are very welcome to be here in Del Mar. My greetings are to you, the residents of Del Mar; those who live here but may not be aware of the festivities coming next week. The Breeders’ Cup is the Olympics of thoroughbred racing. It will be held November 3rd and 4th at the Thoroughbred Club. It features 13 races where the world’s best race horses compete for $28 million in purses and rewards. It is the pinnacle of racing events, and we are fortunate to be able to host the Cup and the

visitors who will be coming from all over the world. But the Breeders’ Cup is not just a racing event. It is a week-long festival that will begin Oct. 28 and will involve everyone in our area. It is an opportunity for each of our residents to enjoy the special atmosphere and unique opportunity to see what makes Del Mar so attractive. Look at some of the activities lined up this coming week: a 5k fun run at the beach on Oct. 28; six events at the Barn at the Beach during the week for food, music and racing enthusiasts alike; three events at L’Auberge; and special restaurant

www.delmartimes.net events as well. Tickets for these events are going fast. If you want more information, please go to the Del Mar Village Associate website at visitdelmarvillage.com. Whether you attend the races, join in on the events, or just soak up the festival atmosphere, I hope you will savor this special time. Also, you may want to join-in by becoming a volunteer Del Mar Ambassador. For three days, we will have Ambassadors at four key locations in the Village welcoming people coming to the Breeders’ Cup. We will be providing Breeders’ Cup t-shirts for the Ambassadors and information to hand to visitors. If you would like to help out, please visit the Del Mar City website and look up Breeders Cup Ambassadors. It should be fun. And a note about the Torrie horses. For over 30 years, the Breeders’ Cup World Championships has crowned the ultimate champion of the sport of kings, with the victors of each Championship race receiving a

Breeders’ Cup Trophy. The trophy is an authentic bronze reproduction of the original Torrie horse that was created in Florence by Giovanni de Bologna in the late 1580s. To celebrate the first-ever running of the Breeders’ Cup at Del Mar, the Breeders’ Cup 2017 Host Committee has commissioned 20 local artists to design life-sized artistic reproductions of the Torrie Horse. These vibrant pieces of art are inspired by the Thoroughbred racing community, local San Diego culture and the Breeders’ Cup itself. The sculptures will be auctioned to benefit local and Thoroughbred charities during the 2017 Breeders’ Cup festivities. I want to thank the Breeders’ Cup, the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, the Del Mar Village Association, and the San Diego Sports Alliance for working so hard to make this event a success. I hope you will enjoy this unique festival. Terry Sinnott Mayor, City of Del Mar

San Diego academy offers emerging leaders foundational lessons about water

BY MARK MUIR ew issues are more important to me than inspiring young leaders to become advocates for a clean, reliable supply of water that supports everything we do in San Diego County – from our manufacturing and biotech businesses, to our farms, to our incredible tourism industry. And there’s no better way to understand the complexities of water than the Citizens Water Academy, an award-winning, innovative program of the San Diego County Water Authority designed to educate up-and-coming professionals about our region’s most vital natural resources. Over the past four years, approximately 450 San Diego County residents have graduated from the academy, which is among the most popular outreach activities we’ve ever offered. Participants get a rare chance to go behind the scenes at world-class facilities such as Olivenhain Dam. They also get to talk with decision-makers about where our water comes from, how it’s used and how we help make the most of every drop. And

GUEST COMMENTARY they make valuable connections with other emerging leaders who will shape our region’s future. During our most recent academy in Vista, we welcomed early career influentials such as Sophia Hernandez, 24, a field representative for state Assemblymember Rocky Chavez. She praised the academy for providing vital, real-time information about water use and planning that she can apply statewide. Likewise, recent college graduate Seth Patton, a policy advisor to county Supervisor Bill Horn, attended the academy to better serve North County constituents. Then there was Kyle Lunneberg, 20, a trail development manager at the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation who believes healthy ecosystems and well-designed infrastructure go hand-in-hand. He enrolled in the Citizens Water Academy to help him communicate about water

issues so he can continue improving the region’s habitats throughout his career. We were also joined by Corinna Contreras, 29, founder and CEO of Millennial Farmer LLC, an agricultural start-up company in Vista. She called Citizens Water Academy a great place to discuss long-term water sustainability for our region. Each of these young leaders had different motivations for wanting to learn more about water infrastructure and planning issues that are foundational to our region’s prosperity. The important thing is that they each joined the academy at the start of their careers, giving them the opportunity to make a positive contribution in San Diego County for decades to come. While the 2017 academy schedule has concluded, we’re planning more academies in 2018. Add your name to the interest list at www.sdcwa.org/citizens-water-academynotification-list. – Mark Muir is Chair of the Board of Directors, San Diego County Water Authority

Care ‘n Share Toy Drive 2017 a success thanks to community support The Care ‘n Share Toy Drive 2017, a project of Torrey Pines Rotary Club, is pleased to announce distribution of over 14,700 new and gently used stuffed animals as a result of our collection drive during the San Diego County Fair.

A bouquet of thanks too, to the members of NCL Del Sol Chapter for their stellar help at the fair. “We could not have done this without the wonderful support of the community.” said Nancy Stoke, chair.

“The smiles on the faces of the children who receive the donations make it so worthwhile!” she continued. The stuffed animal donations have been distributed to Promises2Kids, Foundation for the Children of the Californias, Dignity Delivery, SDPD SE Division Juvenile Services Team, Rady Children’s Hospital Audiology Dept. and many other organizations serving health and welfare needs of children in the region.

crafting need statements, students moved through the phases of ideation, rapidly prototyping iterations of ideas, testing and revising based on feedback. On the day of the event, student teams interacted with community members who selected a stakeholder perspective: Homeowner on the Bluff, Surfer, Environmentalist, or Taxpayer. While pitching solutions, students fielded questions and suggestions from stakeholders in order to further revise and reflect on the process. One student reflected that the most challenging aspect of the entire process was working collaboratively. His teammate responded that he felt like “a million bucks” after successfully compromising and bringing their idea to fruition.

energy production will reduce the cost of energy, create countless good jobs, and make America more secure and far more energy independent.” Trump’s order empowers Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke to revise Obama’s five-year plan dictating offshore drilling rights from 2017 and 2022. The order also opens the door for energy exploration in marine sanctuaries created or expanded in the past 10 years, which includes two sanctuaries off the coast of the Monterey Peninsula. While the Trump administration has so far focused on the south Atlantic and the Arctic waters of Alaska, the Democratic leaders of Pacific states aren’t sitting idly by. Hours after Trump’s order, the governors of California, Oregon and Washington issued a joint statement that redoubled their resolve to resist any drilling expansion. “We still remember what happened in Santa Barbara in 1969, Port Angeles in 1985, Grays Harbor in 1988 and Coos Bay in 1999. We remember the oil-soaked beaches and wildlife and

FROM BREES, A7 volunteers, Brees’ league has created a coach’s portal online — there are instructional videos of drills that can be done with the kids, playbooks, and resources on pass routes, ball handling, flag pulling and defensive techniques so any can feel comfortable in their ability to be an effective coach and all players will have the same dynamic experience and develop the proper fundamentals. In addition, there will be preseason coaching and players camps led by Brees in Carmel Valley. “Even if the parent doesn’t know a lot about the sport, they can step in and the league provides all the support and information needed to do this with your child,” Brees said. “I think that’s where we really differentiate from every other league with the consistencies and the support we provide.” This fall, with three leagues in Louisiana in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, Brees has been having a ton of fun and learning a lot along the way. The goal is to take the league national and Brees hopes to have seven to 10 more leagues in the spring, including Carmel Valley.

The video was directed and edited by Canyon Crest Academy student Gabriel Yung. The Save A Life Foundation was established by Hector and Rhina Paredes in memory of their son Eric, a healthy Steele Canyon High School sophomore who died unexpectedly from sudden cardiac arrest at age 15 in

What he is most proud of is the America part of Football ‘N’ America, of bringing friends and family together around the sport. As a nonprofit, FNA will support local charities and initiatives and teams will get involved in giving back to their communities. Brees is now in his third season of coaching the first and second grade Brees Buckeyes and the third and fourth grade Brees Boilermakers. While in his 17th year in the NFL, he is in the third season of coaching his son Baylen’s team and his second year with Bowen’s. On Brees’ team of first and second graders, the Brees Buckeyes, the best player on his team is a girl named Lucy Loomis. “She scores every time she touches the ball,” Brees raved. A player in the NFL maintains a pretty packed schedule during the season but Brees makes sure one of his rare free moments is under the Friday night lights. “It’s a great community event,” Brees said. “My family looks forward to every Friday night.” Registration is now open for Carmel Valley’s spring season of Football ‘N’ America at playfna.com

Prior to the screening, Jacob had experienced symptoms such as extreme shortness of breath and a really fast heartbeat, especially when he played basketball. “I had no idea it was because of a heart problem that could have stopped my heart from beating,” said Jacob, who underwent surgery in 2014 — his mother, Diana, is now a board member of the Save a Life Foundation. Unlike Jacob, Ryan had no symptoms. “I really didn’t want to go and, in fact, the screening was on my birthday,” Ryan said. “But my mom insisted and I’m glad she did.”

Eckery also emailed a statement that the ongoing investigation involved Cathedral Catholic and other high schools in the area. “As part of that effort, San Diego Police and the District Attorney’s Office are directly contacting a number of CCHS families to ask for their help. Officers working the case believe there are CCHS students who may be witnesses or who may have information that would assist them,” he said.

We cannot return to the days where the federal government put the interests of Big Oil above our communities and treasured coastline.” On the Atlantic Coast, where the specter of offshore drilling surfaced in 2013 after Obama opened the possibility for the first time in decades, 138 municipalities — more than 90 percent of the coastline —have come out against offshore drilling. Oceana, an international conservation group, has brought that fight out west as it leads the push to get California cities on board.

resources than they used to; I’ll concede there’s some truth to that,” Worden said. “But if you look at their safety record, it’s still terrible. You have all these rail accidents with cars going up in flames, the Deepwater Horizon fire in the Gulf, spills and leakage all over. Do we really want to risk desecrating our natural cathedrals just to turn the lights on for an extra five minutes?” In addition to Del Mar, the city councils of Los Angeles, Oakland, Berkeley, Santa Barbara, Malibu, San Luis Obispo, Cayucos, Goleta, Arcata, Monterey and Ojai have come out against expanded drilling. More cities are expected to follow suit, beginning with Laguna Beach on Nov. 7. Oceana wants to get as many cities as possible on board by January, when the public comment period is expected to open on possibly dramatic changes to the review process for the five-year plan on offshore drilling leases. “We hope to make that an entire coast, a wall of opposition,” said Brady Bradshaw, Oceana’s campaign organizer in Southern California.

FROM TEACHERS, A5 he said. “Meaning and purpose are important factors, and resilience lies at the heart of happiness.” The audience enthusiastically interacted with all three professors, asking thoughtful questions, participating in psychological experiments that tested their frustration level as they tried to solve seemingly insolvable anagrams, and sharing their feelings about pieces of classical music. “I enjoy One Day University because the audience is smart, engaged and experienced,” said Suri. “I treat this audience as one that knows the facts but wants to explore their meaning for our troubled world today. They’re a laboratory for how we can motivate and inform ourselves to become better citizens, voters and leaders at a time when good leadership is in such short supply.” Since its last event in San Diego, One Day University has added more cities to its schedule, bringing that number up to 61. They’ve also made many of their classes available online so you can watch some of the most popular lectures around the country. So far, 7,000 of One Day University’s 70,000 students have taken advantage of this service which gives you unlimited access to courses such as “The Four Most Powerful People in the World” and “The Science of Happiness” for $9.95 per month. One Day University is also taking its classes to the sea, thanks to a new partnership with Lindblad/National Geographic. “They’re called Expeditions and we’re really excited about them,” said Schragis. “We did a survey and found that 97 percent of our students love travel. This is a great way to combine both.” The first two destinations will be the Galapagos Islands and Iceland, and Schragis is hoping an Alaska cruise will be next. In the meantime, he’s already booked the next One Day University in San Diego, which will be held in February. “It will feature politics, history and music plus three of our most remarkable professors,” said Schragis. “It just may be our best event ever.” You can register online at www.onedayu.com or by calling 800-300-3438.

Hogan said he is optimistic the board

can fill the vacancy at next month’s meeting. If the board does make an appointment on Nov. 16, the person can immediately take his or her seat on the dais and participate in the proceedings.

New partnership focuses on including children with disabilities Kids Included Together (KIT) commemorated the start of Disability Awareness Month this October by announcing a new national partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America to open more opportunities for children with disabilities and other complex needs. Under the partnership, KIT is offering coaching and support to staff members at 4,300 local Boys & Girls Clubs nationwide. Torrie Dunlap, CEO of Kids Included Together, points out that the organization’s goal is to ensure that children with varying abilities have a chance to reach their full potential as productive, caring and responsible citizens. That objective dovetails with BGCA’s mission to create safe, positive and inclusive environments for all children. “Children with disabilities are among the world’s most stigmatized and excluded group,”

FROM HIKE, A1 charged an increasing rate as their water use goes up. That has resulted in some Ranch residents seeing a 45 percent increase in their water bills, Hall said.

Dunlap points out. “Every year, kids with disabilities ranging from autism to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and other complex needs, as well as those with physical disabilities, continue to be excluded from schools and their communities because of a lack of understanding and unfounded fears.” She adds, “KIT encourages creativity and accommodations in schools, childcare programs and after-school activities that allow all children equal access and focus on each one’s unique needs. Our aim is to teach organizations how they can include these children with differing abilities in general activities instead of marginalizing or segregating them.” Research continues to prove that inclusion benefits all children, not just those with disabilities. For more information, visit www.KIT.org, email info@kit.org, or call (858) 225-5680.

The Association wants the board to adopt a uniform rate for all customers, Hall said. The plea to hold off on the proposed 9 percent rate hike on Jan. 1, which was recommended by district staff, resonated with some board

FROM DENNIS MOORE, A3 positive,” Moore said. “I had some guys who weren’t happy with the surface, but you could run on goose feathers and somebody’s not going to be happy with it. “That’s part of the game. I couldn’t care less about who the leading trainer or leading jockey is. All I care about is that everybody is walking back under their own power (after a race). We always talk about horse fatalities, but there is a human being on that horse’s back. There’s more chance of a rider suffering a life-threatening injury, and that’s paramount.” Moore, 67, has been a part of the horse racing industry since childhood. His late father, Bob Moore, started working on the track at Hollywood Park in 1946 and Dennis was born three years later. Dennis’ brother, Ron, has also worked at the Southern California tracks. Rob Moore, Dennis’ son, currently does track maintenance at Santa Anita. “I’ve always enjoyed being around the people in horse

At Del Mar in the summer, for instance, he got to the track at 5:30 in the morning and often didn’t leave until 6:30 at night. For Santa Anita and Del Mar, he stays in a hotel several nights a week because his family lives in Temecula. “He gets up when he’s tired and when he doesn’t have any gas in the engine,” said Chris, married to Dennis for 48 years after they were sweethearts at Bellflower High. “He always goes 110 percent. That’s what drew me to him. He was always a go-getter.” That drive hasn’t always served Moore well. He has suffered two heart attacks and Chris said, tearfully, “There is no medical reason why he should still be here. “Every day is another gift,” she said.

Susan Shirey Blanchard January 8, 1953 - October 20, 2017

Del Mar — Susan Shirey Blanchard passed away unexpectedly on October 20, 2017. Susan was born on January 8, 1953, in long Beach, Ca to Dr. John and Patricia Shirey. Susan grew up in la Cañada Flintridge and attended Mayfield High School. at a young age she developed a love and passion for photography, which her parents supported by building a dark room in the house. She attended Pine Manor College outside of Boston, Ma and the University of Colorado, Boulder, where she explored her interest in photography and foreign language. She received a master’s degree in French from the University of California, Berkeley, and

subsequently worked as a teacher in the Bay area and later on taught French and photography at la Jolla Country Day School. Susan had a long, fulfilling career as a professional and fine arts photographer. She worked for the Del Mar News Press, the U.S. Senate campaign for Pete Wilson, and photographed ronald

reagan, Gerald Ford, and George Bush Sr. during presidential visits to San Diego. Her black and white artwork, inspired by ansel adams, was featured in several exhibitions in Southern California, and is included in several corporate and private collections. She was known for her benches and chairs series called “Places for the Soul.” Susan was dedicated to the arts and various charities. She was passionate about supporting the Braille Institute, as well as alzhiemer’s research. Most recently, Susan was an honorary board member and long-time supporter of the Museum of Photographic arts in San Diego. Susan was an active member of the la

Jolla Beach and Tennis Club and the lomas Santa Fe Country Club where she played tennis. Susan was a devoted mother to her two sons and daughter to her parents.

Fallbrook. They have been involved ever since, with both Chris and Kristin regularly volunteering their time. The program uses horses of all kinds, including those retired from racing, and Chris said she sees some amazing transformations in people. One woman continues to ride after two hip replacements while suffering from Parkinson’s and two hip replacements. Kids with weak leg muscles are made stronger. Children with autism speak for the first time while riding. “It fills your soul,” Chris said, “to see the magic that happens between a horse and a disabled rider.” The common denominator in it all is horses and the Moores’ love for them. Decades after being welcomed into racing’s family, Chris still marvels at the life she’s made with Dennis. “It’s a great, great sport,” she said, “and I’m proud to be married to a guy who makes a difference in it.” — Tod Leonard is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

sure the district makes the needed investments to maintain its infrastructure. Directors Augie Daddi and Marlene King were absent from the meeting. “No one likes the rates to go up,” conceded General Manager Michael Bardin. But he and other staff members told the board that some projects on its list of planned capital improvements might have to be pushed back if the board decided on a smaller rate increase. Petree said most businesses have to prioritize their capital improvement projects based on the amount of money they have to spend. And he said the district should do the same. “We have to pick our priorities. There’s a limit to what we can ask our ratepayers to pay every year,” Petree said. The district is legally required to give its customers 30 days notice before rates go up. Therefore, if the board does not approve the Jan. 1 rate increase by its meeting on Nov. 16, allowing notification to go out by Dec. 1, implementation would have to be pushed back to February or March, said district spokeswoman Jessica Parks. Although Petree expressed reservations about the proposed 9 percent increase, he said he would support a “reasonable” increase, even if it meant some capital projects had to be delayed. “I don’t think 0 percent (for a rate increase) is realistic and I would never vote for that,” he said.

In addition to any rate increase adopted by the Santa Fe board, district customers will also see a 2 percent “pass through” increase on their bills in 2018 based on price increases imposed by the San Diego County Water Authority, the district’s wholesale water supplier, officials said. Under the district’s current rate structure, water rates are set up in “tiers,” meaning that all customers are charged a smaller rate for the first 15 units of water they use. Those who use larger amounts of water pay a higher rate for the upper tiers set out by the rate structure. Although the current proposal is for a 9 percent overall increase in rates, the percentage increase charged to specific customers will vary based on the amount of water they use and other factors, such as the size of their water meter. A chart included in the board agenda packet for Thursday’s meeting showed that, under the proposed 9 percent rate increase, customers at the lowest level of use, at or below 15 units, would see an 8.1 percent increase in their bi-monthly bill. Customers who use 150 units, slightly about the district household average of 120 units, would see a 10.7 percent increase (to $895.87) in their bi-monthly bill, while a household at the higher end, or 1,000 units, would see its bi-monthly bill rise 11 percent, to $6,855.92. The board will further discuss rates for next year at its meeting on Nov. 16.

Through Project Concern International, Del Mar resident finds a global calling PCI’s Hands Across Borders gala to be held Nov. 4 BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The sight of mothers and their newborns in Tijuana struggling amid a lack of basic health care left an indelible impact. Patricia Mogul had already been doing everything she could to promote Project Concern International’s mission to create sustainable, community-driven solutions in some of the world’s most impoverished places. But her two trips — first in 2014, and again last October — to see PCI’s programs in Tijuana made her commitment even more real. It was there, in 1961, that Dr. James Turpin, a physician from Coronado, was volunteering at a clinic when he came across two pneumonia-stricken children on the verge of death, cases that in America would have been easily resolved with antibiotics. Struck by the profound lack of medical infrastructure, Turpin quit his family practice and founded PCI. So when Mogul found herself in Tijuana’s outskirts alongside Turpin last year as PCI’s mobile clinic doled out health care, vaccinations and medical supplies to mothers and their newborns, it deepened her devotion to PCI’s mission. “I could see that the work is actually saving people’s lives,” she said. “This is really

basic aid that is being provided and it’s something that we take for granted here.” Mere months after her second trip, the opportunity arose to take her commitment to an even higher level by co-chairing PCI’s 28th annual Hands Across Borders gala. Having already pitched in on PCI’s last five galas as well as various other charitable endeavors — she chaired the Art of Fashion gala for The Country Friends in Rancho Santa Fe four years ago — she jumped at the chance for a lead role in the Nov. 4 fundraiser at the Hyatt Regency in La Jolla. “An organization of this caliber, usually you find them in Washington or New York. To have this right here in San Diego is such an incredible opportunity for all of us to get involved,” she said. “It’s not just about dropping aid, it’s about organically and sustainably supporting the community and supporting people in fighting hardship from the ground up.” PCI’s diverse programs reached more than 10 million people and ran in 16 countries last year through initiatives focused on health services, food, water, education and economic empowerment. Its strategies promote a community-first approach that engages people on how to implement sustainable solutions that empower them to overcome hardship. Those initiatives have won significant strides against polio in India, Ebola in Liberia and helped Haitians recover

After five years involved with Project Concern International, Patricia Mogul of Del Mar is co-chairing its annual Hands Across Borders gala on Nov. 4 at the Regency Hyatt in La Jolla. from the 2010 earthquake. More than 200,000 children in Guatemala, Nicaragua and Tanzania receive school meals every day thanks to its anti-hunger initiative. Those efforts resonate with Mogul because

of a life steeped in global citizenship. Born in London to an American father and a German mother, her worldly mindset grew even wider in her 20s as she traveled the world as a Lufthansa stewardess. “My parents instilled that need to give back and be part of something larger than yourself. For me, having traveled the world provided an opportunity to look beyond ourselves,” she said. “I’ve learned that we all want the same for our kids. We are all the same and we all want the same things.” One program particularly dear to her heart is the Women Empowered Initiative PCI has implemented in a dozen countries — a list that now includes San Diego. Earlier this month, PCI launched a “woman empowerment boutique” geared toward the refugee and immigrant community in City Heights. Run as an incubator-plus-storefront, the boutique gives female entrepreneurs a space to create their products — so far that’s been crafts, jewelry and catering — and be mentored on the ins and outs of microfinancing, licensure and credit. Another recent push has come in the fight against human trafficking. PCI is partnering with the Boys & Girls Club and San Diego Unified Schools on a 24-week program that trains school mentors who in turn provide the prevention education to girls age 8 to 15. Those are the sorts of efforts that have SEE PROJECT CONCERN, B23

Carmel Valley woman publishes first book BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY hen Nikki Katz sits down to write, she does so in a way to escape the current time. A young adult author, the Carmel Valley resident always focuses on the past and future, but never the present. "I love reading contemporary, but I can't write it," she said. "I'll write two pages then be done." In her first published novel, the 320-page "The Midnight Dance" released Oct. 17, Katz tells the story of 12 young dancers in an 1800s Italian boarding school who are being mind controlled. "I was just thinking what would that look like, and what if the main character starts to realize this?" Katz explained. The protagonist, Penny, begins recalling memories that she has not thought of in a long time and questions the motivations of the school's master. She plans to escape to live more freely, but the master has other plans. Katz, admitting she has never attended a boarding school or danced, said she was inspired to write the story after reading a book of letters written by girls in an 1800s English boarding school and a memoir by Charles Dickens set in 1800s Italy. "The Midnight Dance," she said, is also loosely inspired by the children’s story Pinocchio, which follows the story of a puppet longing to be a real boy. In Katz’s book, the girls, rather than a toy, are essentially the controlled objects. Pinocchio character names, like Cricket and Geppe (short for Geppetto), are also reminiscent of the beloved fairytale. Katz, a mother of three who has written six manuscripts over nine years and also does freelance writing, said she began writing "The Midnight Dance"

COURTESY

Nikki Katz about five years ago. Over the years, the story has had several facelifts. Katz said she has re-written the story from third person to first person and made it less dark. After being rejected by several agents, Katz decided to upload the novel on Swoonreads, a public review website run by Macmillan Publishers, so her book could gain more exposure. Within the first quarter, "The Midnight Dance" earned a positive reputation and Macmillan offered to publish it. It has since been praised by noteworthy young adult authors. Jay Asher, the No. 1 New York Times-bestselling author of Thirteen Reasons Why, said Katz's book is "a dark adventure, stunningly written."

Casa Aldea offers resort-style senior living

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY KAREN BILLING Casa Aldea Senior Living, nestled within a Santaluz neighborhood, offers its residents independence and wellness enhanced by services and amenities provided in an elegant home environment. The community of custom-home style residences for seniors looks and feels more like a resort with all-inclusive meals, transportation, housekeeping, a packed activities calendar, 24-hour desk assistance, a concierge and an on-site nurse in addition to the highly-trained and compassionate care team. “It really is a senior living experience unlike any other,” said Catherine Ratelle, executive director. Casa Aldea opened in June with 46 assisted living apartments and 17 memory care apartments. Casa Aldea is assisted living based on needs, offering as much or as little as the resident wants. The memory care program for seniors with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia focuses on caring for the whole person and caregivers help residents feel safe, secured and valued. The local owners have taken great care to create a space that caters to residents’ every need. Residents create their own schedule based on their interests, preferences, routines

Residents can also opt to do crafts in the creative arts room — recently it was used to prep trick-or-treating bags for visiting schoolchildren. Sports are usually on the TV in the club room, also known as “the man cave,” where there is also a poker table.

Tickets are not required, and admission is free. The term “market cooking” is from the French phrase au marché, cooking based on what the cook finds at the market that day. David Tanis Market Cooking is about seeking out at local markets the best ingredients, learning the qualities of each, and the methods and recipes that showcase what makes them special – pulling from all the world’s great cuisines. He writes of being more discerning in the market and freer in the kitchen, of how to become a more intuitive and spontaneous cook. Tanis headed the kitchen at Chez Panisse restaurant, on and off, for over 25 years, splitting his time between the restaurant in Berkeley, Calif., and a successful private supper club in his 17th-century walk-up in Paris.

Good mornings: Breakfast Republic opens in Carmel Valley BY KAREN BILLING Johan Engman has learned that breakfast is not only the most important meal of the day but it can also be the most fun. Engman recently opened up his sixth Breakfast Republic restaurant in the Village at Pacific Highlands Ranch, serving up” tasty takes” on American classics such as Oreo Cookie pancakes, California Breakfast Burritos and S’mores French toast with a side of Jurassic Pork, thick-cut bacon marinated and baked with paprika and brown sugar. He hopes it will be the destination locals and visitors think of as the perfect place to begin their days. While there are six Breakfast Republics throughout San Diego, Carmel Valley is the first location that they were able to build from scratch as all previous locations were remodeled restaurant spaces. “Carmel Valley is a tremendous area for breakfast as it is much needed,” Engman said. “The opportunity to build our first ‘from scratch’ Breakfast Republic location at The Village at Pacific Highlands Ranch seemed like a perfect fit.” The result is what Breakfast Republic has come to be known for — a unique, bright and colorful design as creative and original as the menu. There are whisks in the light fixtures, funky yellow chairs, cracked egg seats on the outdoor patio, touches of roosters everywhere and BR-branded caps, t-shirts and coffee mugs, even the napkin wrappers are stamped with funny sayings. Engman was born and raised in northern Sweden and came to the United States

Breakfast Republic is now open in the Village at Pacific Highlands Ranch. with his mother at 16. By 17, he started off his career in the restaurant industry, working as a dishwasher. He worked his way up from busboy to server, saving money to open his own place. He opened his first Fig Tree Café in Pacific Beach in 2008 on a shoestring budget with plastic tables and chairs. In 2008, the middle of the economic downturn, was “arguably the worst time to open a restaurant” but it turned out well and he was able to remodel his space and gain quite a following. Engman opened his second Fig Tree location in Hillcrest in 2011 and his third at Liberty Station in 2014. He also briefly

took over the old Pannikin space in Flower Hill Promenade, with Café Cantata. Engman’s first Breakfast Republic location opened in July 2015 in North Park. “I conceptualized Breakfast Republic from mistakes I made when creating Fig Tree Cafe. Fig Tree Cafe offers sandwiches, scrambles, salads, etcetera — too much for some to identify with the concept offering both breakfast and lunch items,” Engman said. “I wanted to create a concept where there was no confusion as to what the restaurant is about nor what it offers. Having the word ‘breakfast’ in the name of the restaurant makes room for no

Breakfast Republic’s Asiago-Fennel Sausage Omelet confusion and we only do one thing: Breakfast.” That breakfast menu includes fresh takes on eggs benedicts, scrambles and omelets as well as unique items like Breakfast Bacon Mac n’ Cheese and bacon-wrapped Breakfast Hot Dogs.

Del Mar Heights kindergartners deliver donations to Helen Woodward Animal Center

el Mar Heights Elementary School kindergarteners recently delivered hundreds of much-needed towels, sheets and blankets to their furry friends at the Helen Woodward Animal Center in Fairbanks Ranch. The students collected the donated towels the week before as part

of the school’s Heights Cares program, which engages kids with community-building projects. As a bonus, Heights kindergarteners also delivered dozens of handmade dog toys they had crafted earlier in the week from strips of used felt and fabric.

SPONSORED COLUMNS DR. VAN CHENG San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263

Beware Phony Treatments for Spider and Varicose Veins It is inevitable that for any medical condition, theories will pop up for how to treat these conditions with home remedies, with cheap and practical solutions that “really work.” Most are schemes hatched by snakeoil peddlers, with no medical background, who are seeking to make some easy money by either pitching a product that can be put together in their home kitchen or can gain them followers (and advertising revenue) on social media. While some phony treatments will just make users look a little foolish, some can even be hazardous to your health. 1. Tomato Slices. Apparently, there is a myth that tomatoes will remedy varicose veins if you slice them and put the slices on the capillaries, then wrap the area with a bandage. This is not true. Putting food on your legs will not cure spider veins. But you may smell like a salad. 2. Garlic and other herbal remedies. This time, the myth goes that the garlic

should be consumed daily to remedy poor circulation and reduce inflammation (although one “remedy” does suggest making a paste out of minced garlic and alcohol and spreading it on your legs). Now, perhaps if you have varicose veins and are worried about attracting the attention of vampires, then by all means, paste away. But otherwise, this is nonsense. Garlic may have some useful benefits as part of any wellbalanced diet, but it is not a medicine any more than a tomato, and it will not “cure” spider or varicose veins. The same is true for herbals such as witch hazel and horse chestnut, which are purported to effectively treat venous insufficiency and prevent leg cramps and swelling of the ankles and varicose veins but actually do nothing. Horse chestnut can even be toxic if prepared at home. 3. Cold showers. While cold water or ice packs can help reduce swelling in the legs, thereby reducing pressure on your legs, the coolness won’t cure your spider veins. But it may help swollen legs feel better after a long day. 4. Supplements. The supplements industry is huge. And of course, it is enticing to imagine that taking natural herbs and vitamins can keep you in the peak of health or even, dare to dream, cure what ails you. However, taking supplements, even the popular Vitamin K and butcher’s broom, will not “cure” spider or varicose veins. In

fact, supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA, so there is no oversight on what gets put into them and how much, and studies are often not conducted on their effects or their general safety. Always be careful when taking supplements, and consult your doctor to see what would be of any benefit. 5. Apple cider vinegar and natural oils. This is a popular one, that apple cider vinegar is a miracle potion that can keep you from ever visiting a doctor again. While it may have good dietary benefits when taken in small doses, it won’t fix your spider or varicose veins. Similarly, proponents rave about the miraculous restorative effects of oils such as emu oil and castor oil, but sadly, these claims are untrue. Notice the pattern here. Food or herbs or spices may be beneficial dietary components, but they won’t fix you, weather you consume it or rub it onto your skin. 6. Food can’t cure veins, but yoga can. No, yoga can’t “cure” veins. Low impact yoga may help with overall health, has been known to reduce blood pressure, and can help maintain a healthy body weight. 7. Aloe Vera is a proven natural cure. Aloe vera is good for protecting cuts while they heal, and it has cooling properties that can soothe the skin. But spider veins and varicose veins aren’t problems of the skin; they are problems of the veins and a sign of a venous disorder. No topical rub or cream can remove your problem veins.

Look to these local authorities for professional guidance on daily living at lajollalight.com/our-columns/

There is no “cure” for spider or varicose veins. By avoiding a visit to a doctor or vein specialist, you could even be jeopardizing your health by allowing a medical condition to worsen. Treatment for spider and varicose veins includes laser treatment and sclerotherapy, respectively, which remove existing problem veins but do not magically eliminate the condition. If you are susceptible to spider or varicose veins, which come from a weakening of the venous walls, there is no potion to reverse these effects. There is no one “type” of person who is prone to spider and varicose veins, and if you’re genetically predisposed to them, chances are good that you will get them in your lifetime. However, to maintain optimum venous health, you can reduce the risk of worsening the condition by maintaining a healthy blood pressure, which means regular lowimpact exercise, eating a well-balanced diet and staying away from foods that can increase blood pressure, and maintaining a healthy weight to avoid additional strain on the blood vessels. If you have more questions about real vein treatments or are ready to consider laser treatment or sclerotherapy, visit us at www.sdveininstitute.com or contact us at 760-944-9263.

8 frightful food tips for keeping you safe

ll Hallows’ Eve heralds the culinary witches hauling out their rusty cauldrons to start brewing magical elixirs of spider heads, bloody bat wings and other gross things. But in the real gustatory world, we must beware of dangers lurking both as foragers in fields and shoppers in markets, as well as in our own kitchens and gardens. Here’s a spine-chilling food list to keep you and yours healthy. 1. The vibrant bay leaf that adds an earthy essence to soups, stews and sauces alas has a piercing sharp stem that can scratch or cut the mouth, throat or other parts. Always remove the leaves before serving, and where possible wrap them in gauzy cheesecloth prior to cooking to make it easier to fish out of the pot. Easier yet to use ground bay leaves instead of whole ones. 2. Go green, except when eating potatoes. Green spots on spuds indicate an over exposure to light and high temps, forming a concentration of solanine and chlorophyll in the root. Solanine poisoning can cause gastrointestinal problems of all manners, so carve away green spots or discard the potato completely. 3. The leaves and stems of tomato

Memory care neighborhood is accessed through secured doors and it has specially designed and dedicated accommodations for its residents’ needs. To access the areas in the next-door neighborhood residents must be accompanied, although memory care has its own dining area, private courtyard and gathering spaces. In the assisted living neighborhood, residents can choose from studio, one bedroom or two bedroom apartments with small kitchenettes— residents bring their own furniture. Inside the residences, there has been extreme attention to detail, both aesthetically and for convenience and safety. As an example, inside the bathrooms

plants also contain solanine, along with an alkaloid toxin called tomatine. Carefully remove all greenery from the fruit before slicing, dicing, pureeing or cooking, especially with vine-ripened varieties. 4. There is a seedy side to apples (never mind about Adam and Eve), along with stone fruits, including cherries, peaches and plums as they harbor cyanide in their seeds and pits, while the divine tropical cherimoya with a creamy sweet pulp is laced with glossy black seeds containing a dangerous neurotoxin. Enjoy the fruits, but steer clear of their hazards. 5. Intrepid foragers beware of poisonous mushroom doppelgangers known as toadstools sprouting in woodlands, fields and forests. These usually have white gills and pointy caps, sometimes dotted with pigments, but others can closely resemble edible mushrooms. 6. Chestnuts, the darling fruit of the holiday season are downright unpalatable when eaten raw. This can be quickly remedied by following Nat King Cole’s suggestion by roasting them on an open fire. Still, remove all brown shells that are laced with bitter acidic tannins. there are granite countertops and slate floors, shower stalls with grab bars and a bench, with a call-system if a resident needs assistance. Throughout the apartment, shelves and closet rods are low and many cabinets feature pull-out racks to make sure everything is easily accessible and allows residents to retain independence. While the rooms are designed to offer every convenience and comfort, Ratelle said one of Casa Aldea’s goals is for residents never to be in them. “Really the best medicine is the socialization, that is the beauty of living in assisted living,” Ratelle said. “Instead of just sitting at home, they are eating meals with someone, making friends and doing activities. It’s a change in their quality of life. I’ve seen people’s health improve just by moving in.” To learn more, visit casaaldeaseniorliving.com — Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of our advertisers.

7. Alphabetically speaking, avoid buying products containing BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), and BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) that are designed to extend shelf life with the collateral effect of shortening human life; MSG (monosodium glutamate), a neurotoxin that amps up the flavor of everything from artichokes to zucchini while (some people say) triggering jack-hammer migraines and vision impairment; BPA, the industrial chemical bisphenol A used in the 1960s to prevent food contamination is still found in the linings of aluminum cans, plastic bottles and other food storage containers. The venerable Mayo Clinic advises consumers to buy BPA-free products to avoid ingesting the chemical — which tends to leach into foods and liquids, especially when they have acidic content, such as tomatoes, pickles, etc. BPA has been found to elevate blood pressure, increase risk for Alzheimer’s disease, breast and other cancers; and GMOs or genetically modified Frankenstein crops, particularly soy, corn and canola oil. 8. Save the electric shades of green, red, blue and yellow food coloring for Halloween décor and science experiments. Artificial dyes, including Blue #1 and #2, Green #3, Red #40, and Yellow #5 and #6 (laced into snacks, cake frostings, candies, soft drinks and sugary cereals) have been linked to various health risks from neurological and behavioral problems to certain cancers. If you still want to add vibrant eye candy to special confections or desserts (such as red velvet cupcakes) use natural food colorings extracted from red berries or beets for ruby hues, elderberries for striking purples and turmeric for bright golden tones.

announced for the seventh Breakfast Republic in Pacific Beach, set to open in December. Engman is keeping very busy — last year he opened Como Ceviche, a fast casual seafood restaurant and, in early 2018, he will launch his newest breakfast concept: North Park Breakfast Company, a restaurant that will boast a unique menu featuring everything from guava-infused pancakes to bone marrow and chorizo topped with quail eggs. For now, he is happy to bring lots of good mornings to the Village. “So far, the response has been tremendously positive,” Engman said. “The community has welcomed us with open arms and we are super happy to be part of Carmel Valley.” Breakfast Republic is located at 6025 Village Way, Suite F101, San Diego, 92130.
