Lawsuits filed against One Paseo, city over ‘flawed’ environmental review BY KAREN BILLING As the San Diego city clerk continues the process of tallying and verifying signatures on the One Paseo referendum petition as well as the countering signature withdrawals, two separate lawsuits were filed last week against the city and Kilroy Realty: one by Donahue Schriber, the owner of Del Mar Highlands, and a second by a trio of community groups.
One lawsuit was filed April 8 by the Alliance for Responsible Development, the East Bluff Community Association and Mitigate One Paseo. The community groups allege that One Paseo’s environmental documents are “riddled with flaws and inconsistencies” and that the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) does not provide the necessary analysis of impacts, alternatives and miti-

• ‘In an imperfect world, it’s the best option you’ve got before you,’ says Del Mar Councilman Dwight Worden BY KRISTINA HOUCK After negotiations with the California Coastal Commission, supporters of the popular boardwalk that runs along the San Dieguito River were able to save a portion of it. The San Dieguito River Park Joint Powers Authority Board of Directors voted 7-0 on April 8 to accept a compromise with the Coastal Commission, keeping a little less than half the structure in place. “We were between a rock and a hard place,” said Del Mar Councilman Don Mosier, who serves as chairman of the JPA, the agency that oversees the San Dieguito River Park. “I think each
gation measures. Donahue Schriber’s suit, filed by John Ponder of Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton on the same day, also challenges the validity of the report and its “flawed” traffic study, which they believe under-counted traffic generation rates. “In the wake of the City Council’s decision to move forward with One Paseo, Donahue Schriber evaluated all options and concluded
that, unless scaled back, the project would have dire impacts on our center. We have always been interested in seeing the site developed. We are open to mixed use and believe it would create great synergy with our center. However, we are not in support of anything that will negatively impact the community, including our over 80 shops and restaurants,” said Elizabeth Schreiber, vice president of op-
erations and development for Donahue Schriber. “We have always had grave concerns about the traffic, which we believe was one of the issues not adequately analyzed in the environmental document; therefore, we filed a lawsuit challenging the validity of the Environmental Impact Report prepared for the One Paseo project.

side gave quite a bit, so it’s a compromise agreement that nobody likes, but I think it’s something that we could live with.” With a 5-5 vote at its March 11 meeting, the Coastal Commission denied the JPA’s request to allow the boardwalk to remain in its location next to the river on the south side of the Del Mar Fairgrounds. In an effort to save it, elected officials and community members gathered March 21 to protest the Coastal Commission’s decision — an event organized by the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy, a non-

Solana Beach to tighten regulations on RV parking BY KRISTINA HOUCK Solana Beach will soon have stricter regulations for parking recreational vehicles on city streets. In response to complaints regarding RVs parked on public property, the Solana Beach City Council on April 8 reviewed a draft ordinance that would further restrict parking.
#1
“I don’t personally like to over-regulate when not necessary, but the problem we have with our current ordinance is that it’s proven to be non-enforceable,” said Deputy Mayor David Zito. City code allows campers and motor homes to be parked on public streets and in public parking lots for up to 24 consecutive hours.
Boats, boat trailers and camp trailers are limited to two hours. To address growing complaints, the council first discussed the issue March 11. At that time, council members directed city staff to explore options for further regulating RV parking. Staff returned with a draft ordinance April 8,
which the council reviewed and revised. Once approved, the revised ordinance would strengthen regulations so that recreational vehicles without a city-issued permit would be limited to no more than eight hours of parking on any public street or public right-of-way in a 24-hour period.

According to the draft ordinance, residents may apply for a free recreational vehicle permit for a maximum of seven days a month for their own RV or a guest’s RV. RVs must be parked on the same block of the owner’s residence — or 300 linear feet on either side of the See VEHICLES, page 20

State issues mandatory conservation rules • Santa Fe Irrigation District customers must comply with Level 2 conservation requirements The Santa Fe Irrigation District, which includes Solana Beach, recently released the following press release: Worst Drought in California History. The lack of rainfall this year is apparent. Less obvious is that last year was the hottest ever recorded in San Diego dating back to 1895, and it is not letting up. The heat is making the lack of rainfall only worse. The result locally is concerning: the District has no more water in Lake Hodges because of low rainfall. The District will have to depend on imported water which has been impacted by extended drought and the lowest snowpack ever recorded of only 8 percent of average. Water Supply Will Be Cut. The situation statewide is so desperate that officials in Sacramento just issued a second round of mandatory conservation measures. As the extreme drought continues into a fourth year, the District’s water supply will almost certainly be cut by up to 15 percent or so this year and if it is dry next year an additional 15 percent or more. Despite the extreme drought situation, local water use is rising rather than falling. February was an unusually dry and hot month, and the amount of water consumed during this month was the highest it has been in the past decade! Reducing water use will not be easy in this unseasonably dry, warm weather. Even though the community’s many large properties require significant amounts of water, customers must find ways to reduce use compared to previous years like everyone else in the state. The collective failure to cut back water use in large portions of the community is attracting statewide negative attention. “Saving water means saving our property values,” said Michael Bardin, general manager of the SFID. “The District is working on creating new local water sources, but before they can come online, local residents must conserve our limited supply to preserve this precious asset. Water savings is in our hands. Thinking conservation and converting to drought-tolerant landscaping is critical.” Customers must comply with the Level 2 mandatory water shortage requirements. These include assigned days for watering (ODD addresses on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and EVEN addresses Monday, Wednesday, Saturday) as well as limitations on irrigation time on lawns to 10 minutes for each watering station, no washing of hard surfaces, prohibition of overspray and waste, including runoff, and more. The District’s existing conservation rules already cover most of the state requirements, except for the mandate to not irrigate within 48 hours of measurable rainfall. Please see the District’s website for details of the mandatory conservation measures: www.sfidwater.org.

Del Mar Mesa planning board considers noise, daytime burglaries; OKs cell tower The following business took place at the April 9 meeting of the Del Mar Mesa Community Planning Board: • Heard a report from Community Relations Police Officer Tracey Williams, who reported “a new daytime series of burglaries working its way down from Penasquitos, involving two men dressed in business suits.” Williams advised residents to keep valuables away from windows. • Heard a complaint from Vice-chair Elizabeth Rabbitt of “deafening noise” over homes on the mesa from military jets. The board wondered whether a meter could be attached to a house to determine the decibels. • Unanimously approved installation of a Verizon cell tower at the Grand Del Mar, 5300 Grand Del Mar Court, in the middle of the property on the border of the golf course, said Verizon representative Kerrigan
Diehl. Renderings showed a 36-foot-tall beige tower with an equipment/generator shelter surrounded by palm and other trees. • Discussed Alta Del Mar, which has some unsightly fencing marring the scenic view along Del Mar Mesa’s main country road. Mel Millstein, County Supervisor Dave Robert’s representative (succeeding Sachiko Kohatsu), reported that City Council President Sherri Lightner, Council District 1, will alert city Development Services to work with the department of code enforcement, and she will request that the city meet with Pardee Homes to resolve the issue. The board has referenced Del Mar Mesa Specific Plan requirements for fencing that is not bulky or overbearing. Board member Lisa Ross complained, “The entrance to our community is not what it is supposed to be.” — Reported by Suzanne Evans
San Dieguito Union High School District’s bond sale gets strong ratings from credit agencies The San Dieguito Union High School District plans to raise $117 million to fund renovation and construction of several schools through its Prop AA bond sale, which was scheduled for April 15. According to Eric Dill, associate superintendent of business services for San Dieguito Union High School District, two major credit rating agencies gave good marks to the bond sale — meaning that the school district’s borrowing costs are lower because of its ability to repay investors on the bonds over the next 25 years. Moody’s Investors Service upgraded the ratings on the creditworthiness of the San Dieguito school district to “Aa1,” a notch below the highest rating. A research note said the rating was raised because the district has an “affluent tax base,” low debt levels, stable student enrollment of 12,540, and “a healthy degree of financial flexibility.” Standard & Poor’s, another credit rating agency, reaffirmed its rating of “AA” on San Dieguito’s debt — also a notch below the agency’s highest rating mark. S&P also cited the school district’s ability to repay the debt because of its affluent tax base and stable enrollment. — Reported by Pat Maio, UT San Diego

Students doing ‘Whatever It Takes’ to make a difference BY KAREN BILLING Several Carmel Valley teenagers are becoming successful social entrepreneurs through a program called WIT, which gives high school students a platform to create solutions that benefit humanity. The teens are tasked with essentially launching their own nonprofits, based on their passions and working to create change in their community. The teens work with mentors and also get a college credit from UC San Diego Extension for the accompanying entrepreneurship and leadership course that meets once a week, usually for two hours. “WIT stands for ‘Whatever It Takes,’ and it really means that,” said Julien Barthelemy, a senior from Carmel Valley who attends Pacific Ridge School. “Because we’re teens, people don’t necessarily believe in us as much, so we have to really prove that we can do it and that we’re just as capable. Our mentors do a great job in making us believe in ourselves.” The WIT program has continued to grow since it was Shivali Joshi works with a youngster in the Choose You founded in 2009.

Idea for community garden starting to sprout in Solana Beach BY KRISTINA HOUCK A new community garden may soon take root in Solana Beach. Solana Beach resident Elizabeth Cramer is working with the city to open a community garden at her family’s vacant property off the Cedros Design District. “I think there needs to be more community space,� Cramer said. Growing up in Solana Beach, Cramer began gardening at a young age. She didn’t realize how much she loved gardening, however, until she went to college in Washington, D.C., and discovered community gardens. While in D.C., Cramer volunteered at Common Good City Farm, an urban farm and education center that grows food for low-income community members. She also volunteered for the Washington Youth Garden, a nonprofit that provides a year-round environmental science and food education program for D.C. youth and their families. “I kept seeking out opportunities to try to garden,� she said. After she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in international studies and minors in Spanish and Japanese from American University, Cramer moved to another part of the community and added her name to nine different waiting lists for community gardens. On her 22nd birthday, a spot opened in the Pomegranate Alley Community Garden. Cramer quickly made the 4-foot-by-20-foot plot her own. From pulling weeds to planting seeds, she worked the small patch of land for more than two years, until she returned to her hometown. Her experience in D.C. solidified a dream she always had for Solana Beach. “Those things really kindled my desire to turn this land into a community garden,� she said. “That experience gave me direction.� Cramer works part-time for Project Mercy, a Powaybased nonprofit that builds homes for families in need in Tijuana. She also volunteers for Legal Aid Society of San Diego, which offers legal assistance to low-income individuals and disadvantaged communities. While also studying to go to law school, Cramer hopes to open a community garden in Solana Beach.
Above: An apple tree in bloom. Right: Elizabeth Cramer hopes to create a community garden. Courtesy photos Another community garden is located at St. Leo Mission Catholic Church in Eden Gardens. Cramer’s community garden would be located at her family’s vacant lot at 438 Rosa St. in Solana Beach. Her family has owned the property, which borders a residential neighborhood and the business community of the Cedros Design District, for about 60 years. “It’s a great location because it’s on the border of the residential part of Solana Beach and the commercial part of Solana Beach,� Cramer said. The more than 13,000-square-foot lot is residentially zoned, but there is no home on the site. There is an old garage, which would be used, but Cramer hopes to tear down the two sheds that are also on the property. Cramer uses the property as her own makeshift garden, but her dream is to transform the lot into a children’s community garden for 15 to 20 families. “This is something that speaks to me,� she said. Families would pay between $150-$200 annually for a 3-foot-by-8-foot or 4-foot-by-8-foot plot. The fee would cover the costs of water. Cramer briefly introduced her idea to the City Council
during the oral communications portion of a March meeting. Before the meeting, she met with Mayor Lesa Heebner, Councilman Mike Nichols and city staff to discuss a way to update the city’s zoning code to allow community gardens in residentially zoned areas. She hopes the code will be updated by the end of this year, in time for the garden to open in spring 2016. “I think that community gardens and other public benefit projects are much more likely to come to fruition if there are fewer hurdles to jump through,� she said. If the code is updated, Cramer will need to cover the costs of a city permit, liability insurance, water use, a new fence and supplies to build gardening boxes and a terrace before opening the community garden. To view the garden’s wish list or donate to the project, visit solanabeachcommunitygarden.com. “We have the land,� Cramer said. “It’s just sitting there. I want to turn it into something that’s really beautiful.� Those interested can also follow the project on Facebook at www.facebook.com/SolanaBeachCommunityGarden and on Instagram at instagram.com/sbcommunitygarden.

Torrey Pines grad hit, killed by train during trip to Coachella music festival BY DAVID HERNANDEZ, SPECIAL TO THE CV NEWS, DM TIMES, SB SUN A 23-year-old man from San Diego was hit and killed by a train during his trip to Coachella music festival this weekend, according to the Riverside County coroner’s office. Torrey Pines High School graduate Jannik Andersen was struck by train at railroad tracks near the festival in Indio at 3:05 a.m. Saturday and died about 40 minutes later, according to the Riverside County coroner’s office. The Union Pacific Railroad Police is investigating Andersen’s death and whether alcohol or drugs were involved. Anderson was enrolled at the University of Colorado Boulder. He was not seeking a degree and was considered a continuing education student, university spokeswoman Malinda Miller-Huey said. “Whether you knew him for a day or 10 years, he had this way of making you feel like you were his best friend,” said Emily Heil of Del Mar, a friend who also briefly attended UC Boulder and grew up in the same area as Anderson. She said Anderson had a large “community of friends” in San Diego and Boulder. Anderson was a member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, said Chris Tuzzio, a close friend and fraternity member at the university. He would often go snowboarding in Boulder with Anderson, who referred to it as “shredding and tearing it up in the mountains,” Tuzzio said. “Honestly, he was the greatest dude ever,” he said. “Anytime he brought me around a group of friends, he treated me like a best friend.” Two years ago Anderson planned a camping trip to the Great San Dunes National Park and Reserve in Colorado for a group of 14 friends, bringing people together as he typically did, Tuzzio said. Heil said a memorial would probably be held in San Diego this weekend, but plans were not finalized. Tuzzio and friends in Boulder organized a memorial for Anderson scheduled to be held at the university Tuesday evening. The hashtag #LiveLikeJannik was used to remember his life.

Suspect in SB abduction attempt posts bail BY CITY NEWS SERVICE The man accused of trying to duct-tape and kidnap a 7-year-old girl at her Solana Beach school last month has posted bail. Jack Henry Doshay, 22, of Fairbanks Ranch, had been held without bail since his arrest April 1 in the alleged abduction attempt a week earlier. Doshay pleaded not guilty April 3 to charges of kidnapping, false imprisonment and child cruelty. He faces 11 years in prison if convicted. Prosecutors asked April 9 that Doshay be held on $2.5 million bail. Vista Superior Court Judge William Gentry said April 9 that if Doshay posted the bail, he must be taken immediately to an in-patient psychological facility, wear a GPS anklet 24 hours a day, surrender his passport and refrain from driving. On the afternoon of March 23, Doshay allegedly grabbed the girl at Skyline Elementary School, clapped a hand over her mouth, tried to put tape onto her face and ordered her to get into his silver-and-black SUV. When she struggled and fought back, the would-be abductor let her go, returned to his vehicle and drove off, authorities said. Detectives followed up about 150 tips in the case before tracking down the suspect in Orange County with information provided by his attorney, Paul Pfingst. An affidavit in support of an arrest warrant states that Doshay’s father, Glenn — a minority owner of the San Diego Padres — told his son’s therapist two days after the alleged abduction attempt that he suspected his son was involved. A readiness conference was set for May 6 and a preliminary hearing for May 28.

Running the good race: Teen’s memory honored as SpeakUp5K comes to San Diego BY KAREN BILLING Cameron Gallagher had a goal: The 16-year-old would train to run 13.1 miles. She would do this in part because she wanted help from her parents to buy her first car — since she suffered from depression, it wasn’t easy for her to hold a job. But she also wanted to cross the finish line for the sense of pride and accomplishment. She didn’t always want to get up to run. The long runs were often very hard, and sometimes she wasn’t sure she could go the distance. “In the end, she always felt like, ‘I did it. I didn’t think I could, but I did it,’” said her mother, Grace Gallagher. On March 16, 2014, Cameron ran the whole 13.1 miles of the Shamrock Half Marathon in Virginia Beach. Moments after crossing the finish line, she smiled and fell forward gently, dying in the arms of her parents. Doctors later found she had an undiagnosed heart arrhythmia. It had become a passion of Cameron’s to do her part to raise awareness for teens like her who had depression. In Cameron’s memory and to help raise

Courtesy photos funds for the foundation that was set up in her name, the SpeakUp5K is coming to San Diego’s Spanish Landing Park on Saturday, May 2. At mile 12 of the half marathon, Cameron had turned to her friend Abby, running alongside her, and said, “Let’s finish this.” It has become a rallying call for her family in her absence, along with inspiration drawn from a Bible verse: “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” T-shirts from the 5K

bear the message, “Fight, Finish, Faith.” San Diego’s race will be the second in the new yet growing SpeakUp5K series. The first SpeakUp5K was held in September 2014 in Cameron’s hometown of Richmond, Va., and more than 3,500 people participated. “It was absolutely amazing. It was such a moving experience because there were people that knew her and many people who did not know who she was, but they all felt the message and they all crossed that finish line with a smile,” said Gallagher. “I was an absolutely awesome feeling ... We want to make sure that people are absorbing something more than just the race.” The Gallaghers have a connection to San Diego through Cameron’s uncle, who has lived in the city for 20 years. “We heard from a ton of people from other cities around the country asking us to bring Cameron’s message about teenage depression and anxiety, but we wanted to try and bring it to a place where we had an emotional connection, and in San Diego, Cameron would be taken care of by her uncle,” said Gallagher. “San Diego feels a little bit like our home away from home.” The San Diego SpeakUp5K will be followed by a race in North Carolina in August and their second race in Richmond in September. Since she was a baby, Gallagher said, Cameron was always larger than life: “Everything she felt, she felt big,” she said. “She was a bubbly, boy-crazy 16-year-old when she passed away,” Gallagher said. “She lived a normal, happy life, but at times she struggled severely with depression and anxiety, to the point where we had to pull her out of school to get through darker times.” As Cameron dealt with a dark sadness, she wondered why nobody was ever talking about it. Her mother said she didn’t understand why there was a stigma. As mother and daughter went on long training runs together as Cameron trained for her half marathon, she would often talk about how she wanted to put together a 5K to raise awareness about teenage depression. Even though Gallagher had concerns about her daughter making herself vulnerable and putting herself out there, Cameron was more than willing to get the conversation going. “She told me, ‘If I’m not afraid to talk about it, why are you?’” Gallagher said. She added that Cameron envisioned the race as something fun and quirky, a place where people weren’t ashamed to talk about the parts of them that “aren’t as shiny.” The family wasn’t aware that Cameron’s passion ran as deep as it did until after she passed away, when they found that she had started planning the 5K on her own. She had contacted neighborhood associations and potential sponsors and had a folder full of ideas. “She had already put in a lot of work, and she left it for us almost as a challenge,” Gallagher said. At mile three of the Shamrock Half Marathon, Cam-
eron remarked to her parents, watching on the sideline, that everyone was being so nice. Gallagher said she was glad Cameron got to experience the emotion that comes with running races where everyone is there to help you reach your goal and get you across the finish line — even strangers. The SpeakUp5K aims to feature that same kind of feeling, as well as many fun surprises that Cameron had wanted for the runners in her race, such as silly string and bubbles. One of the ways she coped with her depression was putting inspirational quotes all over her walls, so the Gallaghers had the quotes in her handwriting blown up to poster-size to serve as motivators along the course. “As runners run through the race, it’s like Cameron is talking to you,” Gallagher said. “She’s very present at these races.” Through the SpeakUp5K and the Cameron K. Gallagher Memorial Foundation, Gallagher is building a legacy for her daughter and helping teens who need it most. As a mother, she said she misses Cameron terribly and that it has been very painful — but she has been lifted by the support she’s received from others in spreading awareness about mental health, removing some of that stigma that Cameron couldn’t understand. “It’s a tragedy that she only lived 16 years … but I almost feel like Cameron’s work is just beginning,” Gallagher said. “It’s bigger than she could’ve ever dreamed of. I’m proud of her as a mom, and I’m in awe of the community that they’ve been so embracing of this inspiring message.” To register for the SpeakUp5K, visit speakup5k.com.
The San Diego SpeakUp5K will be followed by a race in North Carolina in August and their second race in Richmond in September.

Marine helicopter makes emergency landing in SB BY LYNDSAY WINKLEY, SPECIAL TO CV NEWS. DM TIMES, SB SUN A Marine helicopter made an emergency landing yards from the ocean in Solana Beach Wednesday morning, April 15, a sheriff’s official said. Mechanical issues forced the aircraft pilot to land on the beach near the Del Mar Shores south of Fletcher Cove Beach Park about 11:40 a.m., Lt. Jim Bolwerk said. The helicopter wasn’t damaged aside from the malfunction, which may have been fuelrelated. The people aboard were not injured, a Del Mar lifeguard said. The aircraft will be grounded until mechanics figure out what the problem is, Bolwerk said. Lifeguards and deputies are helping keep people away from the helicopter.

Bosom buddies are heart of charity bike ride in Solana Beach • The Boob Ride, started by Jennifer Carey and Anna Chimowicz, raises money for breast cancer charities BY PAM KRAGEN SPECIAL TO THE CV NEWS, DM TIMES, SB SUN Early Saturday morning, April 18, dozens of bicyclists — perhaps including a few men in festive pink bras — will hit the road in Solana Beach for a 30-mile cycling event known as The Boob Ride. As funny as that may sound, the purpose of the sixth annual charity ride is deadly serious: to bring an end to breast cancer. Co-founders Jennifer Carey and Anna Chimowicz have both been touched by the disease, so the ride April 18 is a way to reduce the chance that it touches others. “There’s nothing funny or cute or pink about breast cancer. It’s a horrendous disease,” said Carey, whose mom, Peg, is a seven-year survivor. “In my family, the way my mom dealt with it was humor. We could either burst into tears or burst into laughter. Laughing was how we got through it.” Since 2010, the annual Boob Ride has raised nearly $15,000 for breast cancer charities. This year, Carey and Chimowicz hope to nearly double that amount with the expansion from one to two 30-mile rides, including a one-way route from Irvine to Solana Beach and a round-trip between Solana Beach and Las Pulgas. There are also 60- and 90-mile routes for more experienced riders. Although the Boob Ride is noncompetitive, its tongue-in-cheek awards have become much prized by riders (who often pedal in pink attire or wear bras outside their shirts). To parody the yellow jerseys of the Tour de France, the Boob Ride offers six perpetual plaques decorated with bras. The first to complete the 90-mile course wins the yellow bra plaque; the “youngest” rider (last year’s recipient was 86-year-old Link Lundquist) gets the training bra plaque; and the biggest fundraising team wins a double-decker, double-D bra plaque. Cinda Flynn will be among the riders assembling Saturday in Solana Beach. Three days before her 44th birthday in October, she was diagnosed with aggressive breast cancer. On Dec. 15, she underwent a double mastectomy. She said participating in the Boob Ride is a way to reclaim the joy in her life. “People get their happiness in different ways,” said Flynn, of Huntington Beach. “This is a new sport for me and I love it, and there’s such a great community out there who supports this cause. I’m very excited to be a part of it.” Carey and Chimowicz, both 39, have been best friends since they were freshmen room-

Photo by Bill Wechter mates and sorority sisters at the University of San Diego. Today, they work at the same company, Toshiba Corp. in Irvine, and their friendship has grown even tighter since their mothers were both diagnosed with breast cancer. In 2009, Carey’s mom had a second mastectomy after a yearlong cancer battle. The experience was so traumatic, Carey said she wanted to find a positive outlet for her grief. “There was a lot of waiting-room bargaining with God,” said Carey, who lives in Laguna Hills. “As soon as my mom was healed, I was determined to find a way that nobody else had to go through what we went through.” While researching the disease in 2009, Carey learned about the Susan G.

Leading Note Studios teacher Autumn Raynne Murphy was awarded the prestigious Native American Scholarship for the University of Denver, covering all funds for tuition, fees, housing, meals and books for the entire four academic years of her study there. The University of Denver only selects one applicant every year. The decision is based on academic standing and an essay about how the applying student will give back to their Native American community while at the Autumn Raynne Murphy is a senior at Torrey Pines High School and teaches cello at Leading Note Studios in University. Autumn is a senior at Encinitas. Courtesy photo Torrey Pines High School. She’s been playing cello since she was 10 years old and teaches young children at Leading Note Studios in Encinitas. Autumn is bright, motivated and considerate. You wouldn’t know that her upbringing was quite different from that of the typical modern American teen. Autumn grew up in the lively Taos Pueblo Reservation. She experienced the magic and beauty of a culture closely in tune with nature, with a vibrant, close-knit community. Along with the beauty of the reservation, she also experienced firsthand the poverty and lack of education opportunities for her generation. In her time at Leading Note Studios, Autumn discovered a passion for audio and music engineering. One moment in the recording studio was pivotal for her. Autumn was interning and had an opportunity to record a cello piece she’d been working on. “I remember watching myself on the screen and hearing myself play. It brought up such a mix of emotions! In that moment, I felt ‘This is it!’ I want to give this experience to people.” During her time at the University of Denver, Autumn intends to create a program for middle school and high school Native American students to develop interests and skills in engineering, science and audio production. The program will include field trips to the university with exhibits and supportive meet-up groups.

40 years later, Surf Ride still integral part of North County flow BY ROB LEDONNE On Oct. 4, 1974, twin brothers Bill and Richard Bernard opened Surf Ride, a small shop a short walk from the beach in Oceanside. Odds are they had no idea that 40 years later the company would not only still be going strong, but would soon become an integral and legendary part of the North County surf scene. “They originally owned a restaurant, but were getting tired of it,” said Bill’s son, Josh Bernard, a 2000 graduate of Carlsbad High School and current CEO of Surf Ride. “They were passionate about the ocean, so they wound up buying an old Hobie Cat dealership, which served as our original location. As time went on, they naturally progressed to selling surf merchandise.” Since those original days operating out of a small adobe on Coast Highway, Surf Ride has expanded exponentially and soon became known for having one of the largest selections of surf boards in the country. Expansion since has included their Solana Beach location (which opened in 1998) and their popular website (launched in 2002 during the e-commerce boom). His family’s passion for the sport of surfing has carried them through the ups and downs of being a privately owned business surrounded by corporate-owned establishments and brands. “There are a few hurdles you have to get around, being family-owned,” Josh conceded. “Mainly the cash flow aspect, which makes it trickier than a big corporate thing with shareholders and investors. On the flip side, it’s awesome because you’re doing it for yourself and your family, and that makes it all worth the work.” Josh knew a thing or two about Surf
Ride before becoming CEO, considering he grew up in and around the shops, and the only three jobs he had in his life were all within the company. Even a stint attending the University of Hawaii didn’t permanently lure him away from the idea of staying in North County and helping run the business. “It was always my plan to work here,” said Josh. “It was never forced upon me by my parents. My father said I could do whatever I wanted to do. But it was important to me to keep it family-owned and growing, and I really love it. Retail is hard as it is, so you have to have a passion for what you’re doing or you’ll be miserable.” During its 40-year haul, the Bernard family has seen plenty of highs and lows, as well as changes in the retail world, the most significant being the birth of e-commerce and their e-store, of which Josh was a main architect. However, business has continued to rely on the two Surf Ride locations in Oceanside and Solana Beach. “I’d say our sales are 90 percent brick and mortar, 10 percent e-commerce,” Josh said. “It’s really tough to compete online, and I think our website largely serves as a visual representation of what we have in the stores.” In addition, Josh pointed to the fact that buying a surf board in person is simply easier. “Everyone keeps saying that brick and mortar stores are going to die,” he said. “I don’t see that happening. Especially with the convenience aspect of them. If you’re going to the beach and need sandals, you’ll walk into the shop and buy some. When it comes to buying boards, people like to size them up and see how they are in person, since ordering them online can be a tricky process.”

Courtesy photo To celebrate their 40th anniversary last October, Surf Ride threw a flash sale, barbecued, and created a carnival-like atmosphere to thank North County for supporting Surf Ride for the better part of a half-century. “We definitely try to give back as much as we can to show our appreciation,” Josh said, adding that he personally tries to surf as much as possible. “When I took over, it put a lot of pressure on my shoulders and I couldn’t screw it up,” he said with a laugh. “My parents had this going for 40 years, after all.” Surf Ride is located at 325 N Hwy 101, Solana Beach, 92075; (858) 755-0858; www.surfride.com.
‘Plan Your Park’ celebration to be held May 2 The city of Del Mar invites the public to a “Plan Your Park” Celebration , from 1011:30 a.m. May 2 at the Shores Park site, 215 9th St. The purpose is to gather thoughts and ideas about future uses for the Shores Park.

Feedback will be compiled by the landscape architecture firm hired by the city to develop the Park Master Plan, Schmidt Design Group. The Master Plan is expected to be completed in winter 2016.
The “Plan Your Park” event will be interactive and family friendly, with activities for kids and light refreshments. Del Mar Community Connections and the Del Mar Foundation are partnering to host a free community barbecue afterward. Food will be served on a first-come, first-served basis. Another opportunity for the community to share thoughts and ideas for the Shores Park will be a booth at the Del Mar Farmers Market from 1-4 p.m. Saturday, April 18.

continued from page 8 BUDDIES Lunchtime Storytellers Club sparks the annual 60-mile walk through San Diego that raises money for breast cancer research. for the walk that year with a team nicknamed “Walking and Wine-ing” proved to new writers at Del Mar Heights School Preparing be a healing experience.
If you step into the Del Mar Heights School library on a Monday or Tuesday at lunchtime you’ll be treated to a variety of stories. You’ll hear about warrior fairies, rock ’n’ roll hamsters and evil robot substitute teachers. These are just some of the thrilling, fantastic tales being told by students in the lunchtime Storytellers Club, a new program at Del Mar Heights School. The goal of the club is to make connections and spark a passion for writing while Students in Del Mar Heights School’s Storytellers Club giving students the skills get the opportunity to have their writing read aloud they need to tell great stories. and critiqued. Courtesy photo Storytelling is also a vital way to teach life lessons such as empathy, identity and respect. These lessons mirror the vision, mission and core values of Del Mar Heights School. Already in its second session, the Storytellers Club is structured in the read-and-critique workshop format used by many adult authors. Each student has the opportunity to have writing read aloud and critiqued. In the workshop format, students learn from each other while having fun. At the end of each eight-week session, students should come away with a chapter, story or scene that will hook an audience. With that in mind, revision is a key lesson taught in the Storytellers Club. Many new writers quit after being critiqued or abandon their stories in the middle when it gets hard, but the students at Del Mar Heights are learning to be fearless and resilient. Members of the Storytellers Club can also submit their writing to be performed by the Imagination Machine in an assembly at Del Mar Heights School this spring. You can find samples of their writing at www.amybmair.com/storytellers.
“On a 19-mile training walk, you’ve got your friends beside you to share your lives and struggles with. It brought me an immeasurable amount of good,” Carey said. To take part in the November 2009 event, Carey’s team had to raise $2,300. But the next year, she didn’t feel comfortable tapping friends and family again for donations. Instead, the avid cyclist decided to start a fun bike ride to raise money for team walk registration fees. With Chimowicz by her side, and organizing advice from fellow cyclist Paul Self, Carey launched the first ride, initially called Biking 4 Boobs, in April 2010. The low entry fee, $50, and the minimal training required has allowed it to attract a different audience. “Susan G. Komen is for hard-core dedicated-to-the-cause people,” Carey said. “This is a really fun destination ride that targets people who would be on the couch and not motivated by any emotional connection to a cause.” The first ride drew 30 cyclists and raised enough to cover the team’s Komen 3-Day registration fees. Since then, the number of riders and the amount raised have nearly doubled each year. Last year’s ride drew 111 participants and $6,200 in donations. This year’s goal is $12,500, and proceeds will fund walking teams for both the local 3-Day and the Avon 39 Walk in Santa Barbara. The Boob Ride will also expand this year to the East Coast: A breast cancer survivor in eastern Pennsylvania is hosting her first Boob Ride in July. From the beginning, riders nicknamed the event “the boob ride,” so Carey and Chimowicz bowed to tradition last year, trademarked that name and created a new website (theboobride.org). Chimowicz, who lives in La Costa, gave up pedaling in the Boob Ride after her son, Kai, was born three years ago. Instead, she focuses on marketing the events and hunting down prizes for the raffle that takes place at the post-ride party each year in Solana Beach. Her connection with breast cancer goes back two generations. Her maternal grandmother died from the disease, and last September her mom, Maria Chimowicz of Clairemont, got the diagnosis and had a double mastectomy. Maria recently finished chemotherapy and, like her friend Peg Carey, is hoping for a full recovery. Chimowicz said Carey was her rock during the early days after her mother’s diagnosis. “The first person I called, in tears, was Jen, and she walked me through it on the phone,” Chimowicz said. “This has brought us closer together. It’s not a bond we wanted to share, but it definitely helped to have Jen there every step of the way.” First-time rider Flynn, who will offer a brief address before the bikers get under way at 7 a.m. Saturday, said she’s been deeply inspired by the women behind The Boob Ride. “On New Year’s Day, I posted something on Facebook about starting the year cancerfree and Jen saw it and told me about The Boob Ride. She told me she rides for her mom and she wanted to ride in my name,” Flynn said. “It brought me to tears to have someone want to do that for me and for others who are dealing with the same diagnosis.”

SB Little League upends stereotypes with four girls on AAA teams • ‘I love the competition and the excitement’ BY KRISTINA HOUCK Four local girls are proving baseball’s not just for boys. A record number of four girls are playing this year in the Solana Beach Little League’s AAA Division. Children ages 9-11 who demonstrate more advanced skills, coordination and understanding of the game are drafted into the AAA Division. “It’s really fun to have other girls in baseball when a lot of them play softball,â€? said 11-year-old Del Mar resident Brielle Carre. Having played the sport for five years, Brielle has often been the only girl on her team. This year she was selected as the only girl on the Cubs, her father’s favorite team. “My dad’s excited,â€? said Brielle, a sixthgrader at Del Mar Hills Academy. “This is his favorite team, and I got picked for it!â€? Solana Beach resident Revere Schmidt is also the only girl on her team, the Yankees. That doesn’t bother her one bit. “I don’t mind being one of the only girls,â€? said Revere, a fourth-grader at Horizon Prep in Rancho Santa Fe. “I’m used to boys. I have a brother and seven boy cousins.â€? Revere has wanted to play baseball since watching her older brother play the sport. Now 12, he also plays for the Solana Beach Little League. “I always liked how everyone had a part and worked together,â€? said Revere, who started playing baseball when she was 8. Both Peyton Johnson and Emma Levy play for the Dodgers. “I love the competition and the excitement,â€? said 10-year-old Peyton, whose father coaches the team. She is a fifth-grader at Solana Pacific. Peyton also started playing baseball because her brother, who is five years older, plays the sport. “I grew up around it,â€? she said. “I like everything about this sport,â€? added 10-year-old Emma, a fourth-grader at Solana Pacific in Carmel Valley. “It’s fun to pitch the ball and play all of the positions.â€? All the girls agree that baseball is better
than softball — for a variety of reasons. “I don’t like how big the balls are in softball, and I don’t like the pitching in softball,� Revere said. “Softball is weird,� Brielle said. “The gloves are bigger, the balls are bigger and you pitch funny. Baseball is more fun and more aggressive.� “I like baseball because girls can play it, too,� Emma said. “It’s not only for the boys, and it’s more of a challenge.� Despite the girls’ success in the Solana Beach Little League, Brielle’s mother, Susan Carre, said she doesn’t think they realize they’re tearing down walls when they’re hitting balls. “Commonly, by this division, girls tend to switch to softball, but these girls are competitive with the boys at this level,� said Carre, who coached her daughter’s team the past two seasons. “When she’s out there, she wants to be viewed and I want her to be viewed as just a player, not ‘the girl out there,’� she added. “I support what she wants to do. I think it’s exciting for her that she’s competitive with the boys and can still play with them.� Although the group of girls has already broken a record and smashed stereotypes, they have much bigger dreams. Brielle plans to be the first girl to ever play in the league’s Majors Division, which is for players ages 10-12 who demonstrate the highest level of skill, coordination and understanding of the game during tryouts. Teams are created through a player draft. One of her female counterparts may join her in the division next season. With a passion for the sport, she also wants to play baseball when she’s in high school but is “afraid they won’t accept� her. “I’m still going to try,� Brielle said with a smile. “Always try your best,� she said, offering advice to other girls. “Never give up.� “Girls can do whatever boys can do,� Peyton added. “Don’t let anybody tell you what you can’t do.� For more about the Solana Beach Little League, visit solanabeachlittleleague.com.
Anyone interested in making MORE money? One way is to only pay your ur “fair shareâ€? of income taxes! So — how ow much did you pay in 2014? Interested in learning how to ďŹ nd out? Where to look? Find your 2014 tax return: The front ont page is Form 1040. Check line 63 (which shows ws how much you paid in federal income taxes). Next, check your California tax return Form 540 and ďŹ nd line 64. Find your Kleenex box and calculator, total both numbers and divide by 12. That number is what you paid, on average, each month last year. Shocked? Want to be shocked even more? Most of you reading this actually paid more than you should — why? You probably only had your taxes prepared vs. planned. Did your tax preparer take time to read and explain your return with any suggestions — or just tell you your refund OR how much of a check to pay to the IRS and CA Franchise Tax Board? Keep this in mind: Taxes are not just taxes — taxes are dollars. Our ďŹ rm does not prepare taxes — we leave that to the accountants, enrolled agents, CPAs and tax attorneys. However, we do READ tax returns, and (just maybe) could show you some ideas and strategies so you will only pay your “fair shareâ€? and no more. I have clients who pay zero taxes and some others who pay more than $1M in taxes. It’s interesting to review these tax returns. There are basically two different incomes: one you can control and the other you cannot control. Let’s start with the income you cannot control, which includes W-2 (salaries and wages), pensions and Social Security, to name the main ones. Income you can control includes interest, dividends, capital gains, rental incomes — see the front page of your 1040 return. Of course, some of you ďŹ le an extension until October 15 as a business owner or other legit reasons to ďŹ le late. You also know that any taxes owed are due April 15. In my 30-plus years as a private ďŹ nancial planner, I have reviewed literally thousands of tax returns — and the great majority of people simply pay much more than necessary. My challenge to you is to ďŹ nd your most recent tax return. If it’s your 2014, check the areas mentioned earlier. Jot down what you paid in federal and California taxes — total both and divide by 12. Remember, that number is what you paid, on average, each month last year. Wow, you say! Did I really pay THAT much? Yep, you did! Your motto should be: s ) ONLY WANT TO PAY AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE IN TAXES Your action should be: s ) WILL SCHEDULE A MEETING WITH !UBREY TO HAVE HIM REVIEW my tax return. Now, it’s up to you. See my contact — and the meeting is complimentary.

From app to abs: Local trainer offers free 60-minute cellphone workout BY KAREN BILLING Carmel Valley personal trainer Marko Dresevic hopes to create a community of “independent exercisers for life,” free of wasteful equipment and the expense of trainer’s fees. He has developed a free workout method called Train 60, available for people to use right on their phones. Train 60 involves exercises like push-ups and toe touches, planks and pullups, “train cars” and “skateboard twisters” designed to address strength, speed, coordination, balance, flexibility and bone density while minimizing cumulative joint damage. “The workout is about bare body functional movements, complemented with yoga,” Dresevic said. Besides a pull-up bar, he added, no equipment is needed and those can be found at local schools and parks. Train 60 is the result of years of experience in personal training. In addition to building the program, for the past 3 1/2 years, Dresevic has also been writing a book, “Die Young But as Late as Possible,” on his philosophy and approach to fit-
ness and mind management: how to eat, how to move and how to be and live. He is most enthusiastic on the topic of happiness. “I just keep enjoying the road. That has been my message for years, for my workouts and for my life. Be on the road to your dreams. If you’re on the road to your dreams, you have arrived already,” Dresevic said. He said it’s easy to become discouraged, but he urges that people just keep doing their part, focus on the present and be conscious in the moment. He said people often put prerequisites on their happiness, telling themselves they will be happy once they reach a certain goal. “Accept yourself. It’s a waste of life not to be happy,” he said. “The time to feel good is now and every next now.” Dresevic has been in Carmel Valley since 2002, transferring from the Seattle Athletic Club to its sister club, Pacific Athletic Club, now Bay Club Carmel Valley. A native of Serbia, he first came to the United

After graduating, he went to personal training school in Belgrade, Serbia, before winning a Green Card lottery and returning to Seattle in 1998. For the past seven years, he has been training on his own at the Carmel Valley Recreation Center and developing his program. “I specialize in making the experience of working out good, both as you’re

training and after,” Dresevic said. The Train 60 program concentrates on 60 different exercises that a person can do in 60 minutes. There are four levels of difficulty for each gender. Participants begin at level one, starting the clock at 60 minutes and seeing how many of the 60 exercises they can do in that time frame. People follow along on the workouts on a cellphone app, “flicking” through the different exercises. Progress is quantifiable as you complete more and more exercises, moving up to the next level when you are able to do the full 60 exercises in 60 minutes. At each level, the workout is the same, but the repetitions increase for each movement. “The levels enable a person to mentally take on an ambitious goal,” Dresevic said. The first three levels are offered free on Dresevic’s website. Since the fourth level is more advanced (50 pull-ups is one of the tasks), it comes with one-on-one training. “Level one is safe enough for a 7-yearold; at level four, even a professional athlete is going to get smoked,” Dresevic said. The workout is stable, but people are different every day, Dresevic said. In a sense, it can be educational when people realize they perform better when they’ve had more sleep, worse when they’ve drunk too much alcohol the night before. People learn to be more in tune with their bodies through the application of yoga principles of awareness and consciousness to strength training. Dresevic said the biggest critics of his program will say you have to “shock” the
muscles to see results, and that fitness will stagnate if you’re always doing the same thing. He said his workout is diversified, however, and there is so much room for improvement and mastery. To resolve any further doubt, he points to his own body, which doesn’t appear to have suffered from the repetition. In his group training in the park, he does not have a cookie-cutter, one-size-fitsall method; he respects each individual’s fitness goals. He thinks long-term and avoids the idea of getting people into skinny jeans today if it will destroy their knees within five years. As opposed to “Insanity” workouts, Dresevic preaches “sanity.” To him, exercise does not have to be painful in order to be effective. While it may seem like insanity to offer his program for free, Dresevic, just like his workouts, has a unique approach. “I think each of us comes to this world to learn and leave this world a better place by sharing something you’ve learned,” he said, encouraging people to stand on his well-toned shoulders and see out a little farther. He said the most successful people find fulfillment in philanthropy, in giving something back: “If you don’t share your success, it becomes sad.” For Train 60 or more information, visit markofitness.com.

Education Matters/Opinion
Enrollment overload BY MARSHA SUTTON Has a precedent been set to forever allow all ninth-grade students into Canyon Crest Academy and San Dieguito High School Academy? Last year and this coming fall, the San Dieguito Union High School District has accepted every student who apMarsha Sutton plied to both academies – and not just incoming ninth-graders but all upper-grade transfer requests as well. The numbers are huge. For the fall of 2015, 857 incoming ninth-grade students were admitted to CCA and 729 are expected to enroll. At SDHSA, 601 students were admitted, and 535 are expected to enroll. The district projects a 15-percent no-show at CCA and an 11-percent no-show at SDHSA, based on historical attrition rates over the last four years. Actual projected enrollment numbers decrease at the academies when students decide not to attend there, which explains why the projected enrollment numbers increase at the district’s other two high schools – La Costa Canyon in Carlsbad and Torrey Pines in Carmel Valley. Enrollment for this fall at all four SDUHSD high schools looks like this: 73+6 *UDGH

Mike Grove, SDUHSD’s associate superintendent of educational services, said the current capacity is 2,300 at CCA and 1,880 at SDHSA. To determine how many incoming ninth-graders the schools can handle for the following year, the number of ninth-, 10th- and 11th-graders for the current year is added together and subtracted from the capacity number. To estimate how many seats were open at CCA for the 2015 ninth-grade class, the district added existing numbers for current ninth-, 10th- and 11th-graders, determining
that about 700 seats would be available for this fall’s incoming ninth-graders. Looking to next year at CCA, the number of ninthgrade seats available for 2016, based on the chart, would be 2,300 minus (729+657+513), which equals 401. After two years of admitting all kids into CCA, next year presents a serious dilemma for the district. A new classroom being built at CCA to accommodate all the demand will not be ready until the fall of 2017. So it’s crunch time for 2016. It would be intolerable – Grove called it a nightmare – if the district limited enrollment for ninth-graders for just 2016. That implies that portables are likely for 2016-2017. At SDHSA, the number of ninth-grade seats available for 2016 would be 1,880 minus (535+525+442), which equals 378 – another potential predicament for the district after two years of admitting everyone. Projections for both academies for this fall are over capacity, but not by much. Grove expects no problem accommodating all the kids. The first registration for incoming ninth-graders at CCA and SDHSA is April 24. Students have to enroll by then or lose their spot. Small boundaries The larger question is if enrollment at the two academies will continue to outpace the two traditional comprehensive high schools. Hoping to head off over-enrollment at the two most sought-after high schools and to grant all students their first choice, the district is pushing LCC and TP to adjust their bell schedules and program structure to better meet the desires of students. How soon that will happen, and if it will work, are unknowns. Both academies are in great demand, primarily because the schools’ 4x4 schedules are popular with many kids. But geographic proximity is also an issue – and a valid one. San Dieguito’s lottery system is activated when
Poll of the Week at www.delmartimes.net In light of the attempted abduction at Skyline School, do you think schools should install video cameras? YES: 42 percent; NO: 57 percent This week’s question Are you happy with the terms of the San Dieguito River boardwalk compromise? Yes or No
more students apply for admittance to a school than there are seats available. Proximity is not considered a factor. But kids who aren’t allowed into their neighborhood school is simply unacceptable. The obvious solution is to draw small boundaries around the academies and give those families priority. Grove has said that would leave some people unhappy, primarily those who live just outside that boundary line. It would also adversely affect others living farther away, more of a problem in the southern part of the district where many kids attending CCA live closer to Torrey Pines. But in the same breath Grove has said that some people will be unhappy no matter what the district does, including if no change is made. So just pick the option that makes the most sense and is the most fair. Kids living close to a school of choice ought to get in, right? Not necessarily. Sometimes the option of least resistance – to make no change at all – is what politicians choose. Will the school board vote to keep the existing system in place, which gives no priority for geographic proximity to a first-choice school? Boundary changes are one of the biggest headaches school districts encounter. But at some point, when it’s been 18 years since boundaries were created, the issue has to be confronted – particularly when communities have changed drastically since then. Look for this highly contentious item to come before the school board some time this summer. — Marsha Sutton can be reached at: suttonmarsha@gmail. com.

Shivali, who attends Bishop’s School, is in her third year with WIT. As a sophomore, she was looking for ways to get involved and stumbled upon a program flier. “I attended the first class and loved it, and ever since then I’ve wanted to be a part of it,” said Shivali, who did an anti-bullying social media project in her first year. She also worked on a project called Embrace, which brings awareness of body issues to communities with a mission to change negative self-talk into supportive and personality-focused dialogue. Embrace featured “Embracelets,” bracelets for people to wear with the idea that they would change wrists every time they had a negative thought to heighten awareness of just how much time is spent thinking those negative thoughts. With seniors from Francis Parker, last year she founded Choose You, a project to eliminate childhood obesity through a teenage mentorship program. The teens provide elementary school youth in lower-income areas with the tools to live healthy, active lifestyles. “The best gift to the world is education,” Shivali said. Last year, Choose You pitched their program to a local entrepreneur and they received a $5,000 grant to run a beta test.
Choose You has run at two San Diego elementary schools with second- and third-graders. “It was really successful — we had a great turnout. We had one kid lose as much as eight pounds by the end of six weeks,” Shivali said. “Choose You empowers everyone with the choice to live a healthy lifestyle.” As a result of Choose You’s success, they were invited to pitch their program to the American Medical Association in Chicago in March 2014. The organization loved the
program, and through a sponsorship with AMA, Choose You has run at Bayside Community Center and Kit Carson Elementary School in San Diego with second- and thirdgraders. AMA hopes to roll the program out nationally at YMCAs around the country. Shivali is leading Choose You this year with senior Alexander Barone from Cathedral Catholic, senior Jordan Goodman from Canyon Crest Academy, and junior Andrew Castro from Bishop’s. The group is working on a mentor guidebook with a full curriculum so that the program can be sent all over the country for teens to lead. They plan to send it to the AMA for review by the end of the month. Shivali said even she is surprised by how successful this program, created by a handful of teens, has become — a small idea having the opportunity to spread nationwide. “I think it really is what WIT is about, empowering teens to do things they didn’t even know they could do,” said Shivali, noting that they shatter the stereotype that all teenagers want to do is be on their phones. “We are the next generation of voices, and why not start now, making an impact on other people’s lives?” Tickets to the May 26 WIT showcase are $27.

More than 200 people from Del Mar, Solana Beach and surrounding communities participated in the rally and hiked the 1,200-foot-long boardwalk. Built by volunteers in 2007, the boardwalk cost about $354,000, including a grant from the Coastal Conservancy, and sits on land owned by the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which runs the state-owned fairgrounds. In order to settle a longstanding dispute with state regulatory agencies, the 22nd DAA agreed to restore the dirt lot under the boardwalk to wetlands. The Coastal Commission wanted to remove the entire boardwalk as part of the wetlands restoration project. Coastal Commission staff suggested relocating the boardwalk further north to the outer edge of the wetlands, along Jimmy Durante Boulevard, contending that the boardwalk impedes water flow in the restored wetlands. Relocating it would also allow an additional acre of wetlands to be restored, staff said. Del Mar, Solana Beach, the 22nd DAA, the JPA and the conservancy argued for the structure to remain in place, as it gives visitors an up-close look at the lagoon, promotes conservation and encourages exercise. Coastal Commission and JPA staff members, along with representatives from the 22nd DAA and the conservancy, met April 6 to try to craft a compromise, which was approved by JPA board during a special meeting April 8. As part of the compromise, roughly 680 feet of the eastern portion of the boardwalk will be removed, while the remaining 520 feet will be retained. The portion that will stay in place will end with a viewing platform. “The conservancy definitely supports the retention of the entire boardwalk,” said Trish Boaz, executive director of the conservancy. “We understand the position you’re in as well.” If the JPA board had rejected the compromise, its only alternative would have been to petition the Coastal Commission to allow the entire boardwalk to remain in place.

The board was initially moving in that direction, having voted 6-1 on March 20 to resubmit its application because the Coastal Commission said mitigation for the oneacre loss of wetlands was not addressed. The request for a new hearing was due April 11. After further research, however, board members said that another appeal was too risky. “We want the boardwalk, but unfortunately, we lost the boardwalk,” said San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts, who serves on the JPA board. “We can take this chance to roll the dice and lose it all, or we can compromise and come up with at least a piece of the boardwalk. I don’t like the odds.” Other boardwalk supporters agreed. Del Mar Councilman Dwight Worden, who volunteered to write the request on behalf of the JPA, said that of roughly 20 requests for reconsideration, the Coastal Commission had granted only two such cases in the past. “It’s a very steep uphill climb to get a reconsideration out of them,“ said Worden, an attorney with a background in environmental, government and land-use law. “In an imperfect world, it’s the best option you’ve got before you.” If the JPA board had resubmitted its application and won, the agency would have had to mitigate the loss of the one acre of wetlands by funding the restoration of four acres of wetlands elsewhere. According to the compromise, the JPA receives mitigation credit for the removal of the eastern portion of the boardwalk. No further mitigation is required. Donor plaques from the portion to be removed will be relocated to the remaining western portion of the boardwalk. The saved portion of the structure will also connect with a new part of the Coast to Crest trail that will run along Jimmy Durante Boulevard. “I’ve reluctantly come to the conclusion that the compromise is the best available option for this organization,” Mosier said at the end of the meeting. “This is not a happy occasion, but this is the decision that we need to make.”

residence — and at least 50 feet from an intersection. In addition, RVs must not be parked in public parking lots between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. The council reviewed the draft ordinance for about 40 minutes, making several revisions. Staff initially suggested limiting parking to just four hours on public streets and public right-of-ways, but Councilman Mike Nichols thought that was too restrictive. Staff also suggested issuing permits for four days, but Nichols thought the permits should be extended by at least three days. Last, he asked that the permit process be as fast and easy as possible. His colleagues agreed with most of his suggestions. “The idea here is to catch the abusers,” Zito said. “I think we can easily do longer days and still be able to catch the people that are basically using the street as their personal storage location.” Over the past year, the city has received several complaints that RVs are parked in public space, disrupting public views and making it difficult to see around corners when turning or when entering a road from a driveway, according to the staff report. Before council discussion, Councilwoman Ginger Marshall was reluctant to pass such an ordinance. She questioned how many RVs have been in violation of the city’s code and how many tickets have been issued. She said it appeared that most of the complaints have come from a particular group about a particular camper. Although interim City Manager David Ott did not have the data on how many different vehicles have been ticketed, he did note that the city has received complaints about more than one vehicle. “Although not as persistent or as focused, there’ve been other issues in other areas of the city,” Ott said. “Some have, after the warning, have moved them. Others have received tickets.” The revised ordinance will be brought back to the council for adoption at a future meeting.
ONE PASEO consideration of a project on that site, especially one larger than the entitlement, should be based on a thorough and accurate analysis of the impacts generated. The current One Paseo, with more than 28,000 average daily trips, is unacceptable.” Donahue Schriber’s suit contends that the city violated the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in approving the One Paseo project and its EIR, and failed to follow the mandatory procedural requirements of CEQA, adequately evaluate the environmental impacts of the project, adequately evaluate feasible alternatives, and impose adequate and feasible mitigation measures to reduce the project’s environmental impacts. Also, the suit challenges that there was no substantial evidence to support the project’s Statement of Overriding Considerations and that the city violated the planning and zoning law by failing to require the project’s consistency with the city’s General Plan, the Carmel Valley Community Plan, and the Carmel Valley Employment Center Precise Plan, among other items. Schriber said that when these issues come to light in a court of law, they are confident they will prevail in their efforts to protect the Carmel Valley community. “Unfortunately, frivolous lawsuits like this have become standard for any significant project in California,” said Rachel Laing, a spokesperson for Kilroy. “One Paseo underwent extraordinarily careful analysis, and we’re completely confident that the city’s extremely thorough Environmental Impact Report on the project will withstand the court’s scrutiny.” Carmel Valley’s William Bibb is the president of the Alliance for Responsible Development, a group that formed in the past month to target these types of major developments city- and statewide. An environmentalist with a background in environmental law, Bibb’s concern is that the City Council let economic interests weigh more heavily than environmental impacts. Bibb said that developers should not be allowed to create density without providing access to an established network of public transportation. He said true “smart growth” is building developments along existing transit corridors to reduce traffic congestion and harmful greenhouse gas emissions and air particulates. “Further, our state is facing an historic drought of Biblical proportions,” Bibb said. “It is clear that the necessary water infra-

structure does not exist to cope with fantasies of unlimited growth.” Bibb said he feels sometimes like Paul Revere shouting, “Climate change is coming! Climate change is coming!” but he believes that the situation is dire and the city can no longer keep building unsustainable developments; the environment is “the most precious resource we have in San Diego.” “We all have to fight this — this is the fight of our lives,” Bibb said. “There is no hope, there is no change, unless citizens take action.” Kilroy has maintained that it is committed to building a sustainable development. The company is the owner and manager of the largest portfolio of Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)certified commercial space in North County, and One Paseo will feature green buildings, cool roofs, electric-vehicle charging stations, and energy- and water- efficiency features. One Paseo’s transportation demand program includes shuttle services to make up for the lack of public transit, bike lockers, electrical charging stations and priority parking spaces for ride sharing. To mitigate traffic, Kilroy is also providing $3 million in private funding for the adaptive control system that will be put into work at 42 intersections throughout Carmel Valley and has entered into a memorandum of understanding with Caltrans to support the agency making improvements within its jurisdiction at the Interstate 5 interchange. “My biggest concern is that the City Council’s vote totally negated the vibrant community planning process that took place in Carmel Valley,” said Janie Emerson, president of the East Bluff Community Association, the residential neighborhood across the street from the proposed One Paseo. “This should be a major concern to every resident in the city of San Diego. If our City Council can totally ignore the wishes of the community and completely trample their community planning process as it did here, then this can happen in any neighborhood.” The deadline for the signature counting and verification process is April 24. If at least 33,224 petition signatures are valid, then the San Diego City Council will have to repeal the project’s approval or place the development on next June’s ballot for a citywide vote. continued from page 2
reduce water waste by 20 percent or more. To help customers meet the Water Savings Challenge, the District offers numerous programs, including a new Water Savings Checkup focused on helping those with large properties use water more efficiently. But there are also water savings programs for commercial, multifamily, industrial, public or smaller singlefamily properties. The Water Saving Checkup program sends certified landscape professionals to check irrigation systems and other water use, and provide detailed estimates of repairs and water efficiency upgrades. There is no cost or obligation and the report provides everything customers need to save water. For more information about all the District’s water conservation programs or to apply for a free Checkup, please visit www.sfidwater.org/checkup. If some residents are not conserving with the hope that they are positioning themselves for better water allocations if the drought continues, please understand that if the District were to go to allocations, the basis would not be water consumption for this year. The District is undertaking a comprehensive drought and water supply program. The program includes: 1) evaluating recycled water supply options with other local agencies; 2) undertaking an Advanced Water Purification Study, which will evaluate the feasibility and cost of taking recycled wastewater and treating it to potable water use levels; 3) conducting a rate study that will consider new tiers to promote water conservation and identify the rates needed to fund alternative water supply efforts. The District will provide extensive outreach on these programs as they progress, as well as provide numerous opportunities for the public to learn more and provide input. — Submitted press release from the Santa Fe Irrigation District

TPHS lacrosse stand-out Hollen has passion for the sport BY ROB LEDONNE He’s a team captain of the Torrey Pines lacrosse team, was just named in the nationally published Lacrosse Magazine as their West Coast Player of the Week, and recently committed to play for Tufts University’s renowned team, so it may not come as a surprise that Henry Hollen has had a passion for the sport since he was just 6 years old. “I was in first grade when I started playing,” he said, after a grueling practice at Torrey Pines. “I was born in Denver, and the only sports you could play as a kid were either lacrosse or hockey, so I chose lacrosse.” Hollen “immediately fell in love with it” and knew from then on that he wanted to pursue lacrosse in a big way for the rest of his life. He’s done just that since moving from Colorado to North San Diego County when he was just a kid. In the interim, he’s played virtually every position, eventually settling on midfielder, which he considers his favorite. It’s his talent as midfielder that recently caught the attention of Lacrosse Magazine, which noticed
that Hollen was instrumental during three recent wins for the Torrey Pines team. The kudos from the magazine is special for Hollen, considering he’s a West Coast player in a sport that arguably has more popularity in the eastern United States. “It’s definitely rewarding to know that all of the hard work I put in is being recognized, especially as a player on the West Coast,” he said. “Lacrosse is so East Coast-dominated that it’s cool to see players in California get a mention. You feel like you’re a part of the sport’s growth.” Hollen joined the Torrey Pines Junior Varsity lacrosse team when he was a freshman and was invited to the ranks of the varsity team just one year later as a sophomore. Being one of the youngest players on the varsity team shaped Hollen’s view of lacrosse and sportsmanship in general. “It changed the way I thought about everything,” he noted. “My sophomore year, we won the CIF championships, so to be part of that team was such an incredible accomplishment. I was one of two underclass-
since fifth grade, and it’s something that I can’t believe is becoming a reality.” Hollen counts on support from his family the most. “Knowing they have my back is very important to me,” he said. “They’ve wanted me to go and play wherever I was happiest; they never questioned me going out East to play and put it fully up to me.” Until he reports to Massachusetts this August, Hollen still has the rest of the season with Torrey Pines to worry about, which doesn’t wrap up until late May — if the team makes the championships, that is. The season started on a high note with Torrey Pines beating their rivals at Cathedral Catholic, but since has had its ups and downs. Nevertheless, Hollen is enjoying his status as captain. “I was slightly intimidated when I first became a captain,” he said while still recovering from that afternoon’s practice. “When you lose a game, it’s on the captains and not the players. But I’m glad I can experience this leadership role my senior year, and hopefully will carry that on to Tufts.”
Henry Hollen’s talent as a midfielder was spotted by Lacrosse Magazine, which noted that he was instrumental during three recent wins for Torrey Pines. He recently committed to play for Tufts University. Courtesy photo men to get playing time, and that experience helped the way I lead the team now as a captain. When I look at the younger guys now, I see myself.” Hollen, who’s a senior, is due to graduate this spring and is looking forward to continuing his lacrosse career at Tufts University, a school just outside Boston, known for its lacrosse program. “My proudest accomplishment so far is committing to a program like Tufts,” he said. “I’ve been in the recruiting process for the better part of five years. This has been my goal

Four San Diego County athletes represented the United States in international rugby competition earlier this month. The boys, members of the Under 17 Boys High School All-American team, are, L-R: Patrick Madden, a sophomore at University City High School, Ryan James, a sophomore at Cathedral Catholic, Owen Duvall, a junior at Cathedral Catholic, and Ian Crilly, a senior at Fallbrook High School.
Four local high school rugby players have their eyes on the 2020 Olympics Locals may be more familiar with rugby shirts than the game of rugby, but that may change. San Diego is a hotbed of serious rugby players, and Rugby Sevens has been included in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. Four high school players from San Diego County have already gotten a taste of international play. Ian Crilly, a senior at Fallbrook High School, Owen Duvall, a junior at Cathedral Catholic, Ryan James, a sophomore at Cathedral Catholic, and Patrick Madden, a sophomore at University City High School, just returned from a trip to Europe, where they participated in three Under 17 games as members of the Boys High School All-American (BHSAA) team. The team, which included the best under-17 high school players from throughout the country, won two matches against Belgium and lost one match to France. “The competition was a real eye-opener. It enlightens our kids to a level of rugby they’d never see domestically. By doing that, it really benefits those who have the capabilities to move upwards,” said BHSAA Head Coach Salty Thompson. “Our focus is on development, so when you bring 28 players, you want to give every kid the opportunity to show, to do his best,” Thompson said. “We believe that these players will get better given the opportunity or we wouldn’t have brought them, so we’re going to give them the chance to play.” “These young men are the first generation of American rugby players who have played since they were in grade school,” said Joe Madden, who traveled with the team to Europe. “Since that is the level of training that most rugby players around the world receive, these athletes represent America’s best hope for future success.” The boys train relentlessly, up to five days a week. Leading up to this, players had to qualify for the San Diego Regional All-Stars and then the Southwestern USA regional All- Stars or “Griffins” team, which culminated in an All-Star tournament in Portland, Ore., last July that included the best representative players from the Western United States. Madden’s son, Patrick, started playing when he was 7 and has been team captain six of the eight years he’s been playing. He and the other boys have their eyes on representing the United States during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Although the U.S. is considered a second-tier contender, a good showing at the 2020 Olympics is not so far-fetched. When rugby was played as a men’s medal sport at four of the first seven modern Olympic competitions, the United States was a rugby powerhouse, winning two gold medals. With luck, perseverance and determination, Owen, Ryan, Ian and Patrick may reinstitute America’s prowess.

Carmel Valley native to appear on popular TV show ‘Criminal Minds’ BY ROB LEDONNE It’s a Monday afternoon in Los Angeles, and Jamie Bock was in a good mood. “Things have been moving pretty quickly,” she said. “I’m just starting to get used to it.” Bock, a native of Carmel Valley and a 2008 graduate of Francis Parker, was excited because she was recently booked as a guest star on the drama series “Criminal Minds,” the hit CBS show that focuses on FBI analyzers and is now in its 10th highly rated season. “In acting, some people book roles very fast and then it takes a while, while others may have to wait,” said Bock. “I feel like this is one moment in my career where everything lined up nicely. I’m trying to take it in stride.” Bock came into her own growing up in North County, hanging out at the Del Mar Highlands Town Center or acting in productions at Francis Parker School. She had a passion for acting, despite being, at the time, the “one or two people at the school” who were really into theater. After graduation, she headed to New York City to attend New York University’s prestigious Tisch School of the Arts. While there, Bock also studied her craft at the Atlantic Theater Company and earned stellar reviews in a variety of offBroadway productions. Upon finishing school, Bock was planning a move to Los Angeles but was still in New York when she landed an audition with “Criminal Minds.” “I was originally nervous because I wasn’t living in Los Angeles, where the show tapes,” Bock said. “I asked if I could send my audition on tape instead of meeting in person, and I was shocked that they said yes. When I arrived in Los Angeles, I went from the airport to the callback.”

Bock later found out she landed the “juicy role” of a widow whose husband’s death is being investigated, and couldn’t believe her luck. “I was driving when I got the call that I got the role,” she recalled. “I had to pull over!” On set, Bock said that she was welcomed with open arms by the cast and crew. “They’re like a big family,” she said. “I never felt out of place or anything. It was a wonderful experience.” Throughout the process, Bock noted the work ethic of the series regulars, including Matthew Gray Gubler, who also happened to direct Bock’s episode. “The cast and crew are constantly on the go,” she said. “I’m amazed at how they do it.” As for Bock, she is also on the go. In addition to her plum role on “Criminal Minds,” she’s also appearing in the upcoming independent film “Me & Lizzie,” alongside cast members from shows such as “Orange Is the New Black” and “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” Bock is also proud of her alma mater. “I recently went back to visit Francis Parker and saw their nice, new dance building and theater,” she said. “It was beautiful.” Catch Bock on CBS’s “Criminal Minds” at 9 p.m. Wednesday, April 22.
Fair-trade Leakey Collection transforming Kenyan society through jobs for men and women BY KRISTINA HOUCK Thanks to The Leakey Collection, as many as 1,500 Kenyans have jobs creating sustainable products that are purchased all around the world. Katy Leakey, who founded the company with her husband, Philip Leakey, recently visited Del Mar from her home in Kenya for the Fair Trade Federation’s annual conference. “The fact that we’re neighbors, we’re all members of the same community, makes an enormous difference,” Leakey said. “We don’t have the perspective that we’re helping anyone; we’re just a neighbor. They help us and we help them. We’re all equal.” Leakey and her husband, a third-generation Kenyan, live in the rural bush of the Rift Valley in Kenya, among the Maasai people. In the early 2000s, the drought-stricken land left people hungry and jobless. “The women had been left behind, and the men had taken the cattle elsewhere to try and keep them alive,” recalled Leakey. “Thousands of people in the Rift Valley were affected by this.” To help, the Leakeys financially supported more than 100 of their neighbors, providing money for food, medical assistance and education. As the numbers grew, however, the couple looked for a way to expand and sustain their reach. “We had to come up with something that would give them an income and keep them on their feet,” she said. “We both had an idea to do something like this before we knew the need was there to create a fair trade company. When the need presented itself, it was an obvious solution to use products to solve the problem.”
Maasai women work on beading and sewing projects for the Leakey Collection. Originally from Southern California, Leakey is an artist and a designer. She earned a bachelor of fine arts degree at Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles. When she moved to Kenya in 2001, her husband had recently ended a career in politics and was working on a project focused on land issues and conflict prevention. Combining their talents, the couple founded The Leakey Collection in 2001. The international fair trade company, with a warehouse based in Carlsbad, offers jewelry, home goods and skin care products handmade by the Maasai men and women of Kenya. At first, The Leakey Collection only provided job opportunities for women. Within five days of launching the company, 350 women accepted work. By the end of the year, the number had jumped to 1,200. More jobs were later opened to men. Today, there are 13 worksites spanning 150

Depending on the season, 1,400 to 1,500 Kenyans accept work with the company each month. “I love people,” said Leakey, who designs the pieces. “I love the men and women there, and seeing what a big difference it makes in their lives. It’s really remarkable how much good fair trade does.” One of the company’s most popular products are the Zulugrass and glass bead strands, which can be worn as necklaces, bracelets or hairbands. The Leakey Collection provides assembly kits to the artisans. Every kit includes enough materials for 10 pieces. When the pieces are assembled, the women bring them See LEAKEY, page B22

FACE Foundation’s fifth annual ‘Bags & Baubles’ fundraiser to be held April 26 BY KRISTINA HOUCK The FACE Foundation is inviting fashionistas to its fifth annual “Bags & Baubles” fundraiser April 26 at a private Rancho Santa Fe estate. “It’s a fun way to get that new handbag you want for the spring and summer, but have it go toward a good cause,” said Executive Director Brooke Haggerty. Founded in 2006, the FACE Foundation provides access to necessary medical care and education to save animal lives. Based on established criteria, the San Diego-based organization gives financial grants to pet owners who are unable to partly or fully cover the cost of their pet’s emergency or critical care. The foundation has given more than $1.8 million in grants and saved the lives of 1,170 pets since it was founded. Established by local veterinarians, the organization has always worked closely with veterinary hospitals in the community. Today, the FACE Foundation partners with 110 veterinary hospitals throughout San Diego County, including six hospitals in Encinitas and Solana Beach. All of the foundation’s veterinary partners give at least a 25 percent discount to qualified FACE patients. “It’s very much a partnership,” said Haggerty, who has been with the organization since 2011. “We couldn’t do what we do without our awesome partners.” Based in Sorrento Valley, the FACE Foundation is supported through donations
and grants. Giving fashion followers a chance to shop for a cause, Bags & Baubles is one of the foundation’s largest fundraisers. This year’s silent auction will include more than 350 handbags, as well as jewelry and accessories for bid and for sale. There will also be appetizers, desserts and wine. From high-end designer labels to vegan and leather-free bags, Haggerty said, “There’s something for everyone.” Last year, more than 400 people attended the event, raising $130,000. The foundation expects about 450 people this year with the goal to surpass last year’s fundraising total. Because the foundation’s board and event committee covers most of the event costs, all proceeds will benefit the organization’s programs. “Everything we raise really does go to the animals,” Haggerty said. “The more we raise at this event, the more lives we can save.” Bags & Baubles will take place from 1-5 p.m. April 26 at a private Rancho Santa Fe estate. Although open to the public, attendees are required to register online at www. bagsandbaubles.org. Registration is $10 through April 19 and $25 on or after April 20. For more about the FACE Foundation, call 858-450-3223 or visit www.face4pets. org.

After years battling food compulsions, author now helps others find freedom
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY KRISTINA HOUCK Having helped herself, today Lesley Wirth is now able to help others. A local resident, Wirth works as a life coach and counselor and recently released a self-help book called “Own Your Worth: A Spiritual Journey Through Food Compulsion to Self-Love.” Every word is inspired by her 13-year battle with anorexia, bulimia, compulsive eating and exercise addiction. “I can hear what they’re saying, because I understand it so well inside of myself,” Wirth said. “I’ve been living it and breathing it since I was 14 years old.” Growing up in rural Minnesota, Wirth said she never learned about eating disorders. At 14, however, she found herself restricting food and obsessing about her weight. “It didn’t really start for me as a conscious way to diet and get skinny,” she explained. “It was more like something switched off in me and I started restricting. I think a lot of it Local author Lesley Wirth had to do with being in junior high and feeling unworthy finally found ”freedom inside myself ... all those and insecure.” Wirth ate about 300 calories a day. She exercised about things I had lost for so many years.” five hours a day. At the start of the school year, she weighed 110 pounds. By Christmas, she weighed 79 pounds. “They didn’t think I was going to live,” she said. “I went down pretty fast. It just took over.” Wirth was admitted to a hospital and received treatment at an eating disorder treatment center. But because she was only there because of her parents, the treatment didn’t work. “I got out as fast as I could,” she recalled. “I didn’t want help. At that point, I would have rather been dead than weigh more.” Within months after being discharged from the treatment center, Wirth continued to battle anorexia. When she finally decided she wanted help, she returned for more treatment and to learn how to maintain a healthy weight. “The guilt that I was experiencing through eating was too severe for me to handle at that time,” she recalled. “But that time was a totally different experience, because I wanted it. I worked really hard.”
Wirth maintained a healthy lifestyle for about a year, but her struggles resurfaced when she began high school. “I still felt so unworthy and insecure,” she said. “I wasn’t willing to starve myself, but I couldn’t allow myself to eat normally.” Wirth battled bulimia for the next 11 years. But during that time, she earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology at the University of Minnesota, continued her studies at UC Berkeley and worked as a stylist. She also received therapy. Nothing quite helped, however, until she began attending Overeaters Anonymous, a 12-step program for people with problems related to food. “That was my first stepping stone, and it was a huge one,” she said. “I’m forever grateful.” Through the program, Wirth was able to stop the behavior, but not able to find peace. She found that when she went on to earn her master’s in spiritual psychology. “I found freedom inside myself — joy, happiness, pleasure — all those things I had lost for so many years,” Wirth said. “It’s an ongoing process,” she added. “As long as I’m in the human body, I’m going to always be dealing with judgments and pain — all the things that come with being human. The difference now is that I have the ability to recognize that that’s just part of the human condition.” Wanting to help others, Wirth has worked as a coach and counselor for more than three years. Using her education and years of study under naturopathic doctors and healers, she developed a three-month program designed to teach women how to take control and stop unhealthy behaviors. “I just can’t fathom or imagine doing anything else,” said Wirth, who has lived in Cardiff since 2014. “Nothing lights me up more than to get to meet people in their pain and help them find their way out.” Wirth works with clients locally, but also across the country and around the world. Her work is being implemented in recovery centers, spiritual communities and yoga studios. To expand her reach, she wrote “Own Your Worth: A Spiritual Journey Through Food Compulsion to Self-Love.” Published in December, the book acts as a guide to help readers discover self-love and self-worth. “I want people to learn how to help themselves,” Wirth said. “The message and the processes are so powerful and helpful, I wanted to get it in as many hands as possible. This was the easiest way to do it.” The book is available on Amazon and on Wirth’s website at www.lesleywirth.com.

Nominees announced for Ben Vereen awards; Laughing Pony Rescue celebrates ASPCA’s Help student health initiative winners named Broadway/San Diego has announced the 2015 Ben Vereen Awards San Diego nominees in the categories of Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Musical Production, and the five individual and one school winners of the inaugural Student Health Initiative. The Ben Vereen Awards, produced by Broadway/San Diego, celebrates excellence in local high school musical theater. The competition will take place at 5 p.m. April 26 at the Balboa Theatre, 868 Fourth Ave., San Diego, hosted by CBS News 8 anchor Barbara-Lee Edwards and sponsored by San Diego County Credit Union. Twenty of San Diego’s finest student performers will compete to be in the Top Ten representing San Diego at the Southwest Region Competition Finals (which includes San Diego County and Tucson high schools) in Tucson, Ariz., on May 24. The winning Best Actor and Best Actress performers from the Southwest Region will be flown to New York on an all expenses paid week of intensive training before they compete in the National High School Musical Theatre Awards (known as The Jimmy Awards) on June 29 for the opportunity to win $10,000 towards a college scholarship. Stage and screen entertainer Ben Vereen will attend the San Diego event and present this year’s new category, the Student Health Initiative/Wellness Through the Arts Contest. All San Diego County high school students were invited to submit an essay on “The Moment I Changed My Life For The Better.” The focus was on key topics of obesity, diabetes, low self-esteem or bullying, submitted in written or video format. The top five individual winners each receive a $500 award, and the winning school will earn a $1,000 cash
award, provided by San Diego County Credit Union. Their work will be represented at the San Diego competition. “I am so pleased to be working with Broadway/San Diego and the community again this year on something that’s dear to my heart,” said Vereen, “helping our young people to change their lives for the better through the performing arts. I wanted each student to tell me what ‘Their Best Day’ was in dealing with their most challenging issue and, most importantly, how they used the arts to make a difference.” Vereen will teach a private master class to the San Diego semifinalists and the SHI winners on “Competition Sunday,” and afterwards will greet VIP patrons at a pre-show reception before the April 26 competition.

Santa Fe Christian Schools’ Easter project donates 500 baskets Recently, Santa Fe Christian Schools’ lower and middle school students dedicated their spring break to assemble more than 500 Easter baskets for underserved children in City Heights. For the fifth consecutive year, students partnered with the San Diego chapter of the nonprofit Bridge of Hope to build baskets. Santa Fe Christian students filled the Easter baskets with everyday essentials, including toothpaste and a toothbrush, shampoo, soap, lotion, deodorant, socks, hair ties and headbands. Handwritten Bible verses and notes of encouragement by SFC students were also included. SFC parent-volunteer Melissa Drake has guided the effort with the nonprofit. Bridge of Hope is a national organization dedicated to helping distressed families and individuals by providing furniture, clothing and food. What began as a service project for SFC’s third- and fourth-graders has grown to include the entire lower and middle school. The Easter service project is one of the many projects students participate in every year. For more about Bridge of Hope, visit www.bridgeofhopesd.org.

SB’s Pizza Port brews ‘Coast to Crest Trail Ale’ to benefit river conservancy The San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy is partnering with Pizza Port of Solana Beach to brew a special-edition benefit-beer called “Coast to Crest Trail Ale.” Pizza Port and the SDRVC will host a special, kick-off “Hoppy Hour” from 5-8 p.m. April 27. Devon Randall, head brewer, will use her existing “San Dieguito” beer recipe combined with locally sourced, native California sagebrush (Artemisia californica) to create the beer. The model for this special beer is based on the successful special-edition beer, “Clothing Hoptional,” created by Wasatch Brewery and the Summit Land Conservancy in Park City, Utah, using wild-grown hops from protected open space. “I loved the concept of teaming up with a local craft brewer, and as soon as Ranger Dave Hekel mentioned his special homebrew using local sagebrush, we knew we were on to something,” said Jess Norton, SDRVC Conservation Manager. “We brought the idea to Pizza Port in Solana Beach, and I’m not saying it’s fate, but it all came together when we found out Devon was already brewing a beer called ‘San Dieguito,’ which she named after one of her favorite trails in the River Park.” Added Ranger Dave Hekel, “Having been a home-brewer as long as, if not longer, than I have been a park ranger, the opportunity to merge the two into something beneficial for the park is very exciting. The fact that I was able to contribute my ideas on the beer style and use of California sage was icing on the cake.” This limited-edition, special-benefit beer will be available at the Solana Beach Pizza Port. One dollar of every glass of Coast to Crest Trail Ale sold will be donated to support the SDRVC and implementation of the Coast to Crest Trail. “What better way to cool down and relax after a hike through the San Dieguito River Park than to enjoy a chilled pint of Coast to Crest Trail Ale, brewed by Pizza Port especially for the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy,” said Peter Shapiro, president of the SDRVC Board.

What is Sclerotherapy?
How to get Smoother, Younger Looking Hands and Arms
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure that involves an injection of a drug solution that causes a blood vessel to collapse. Once this vessel collapses, it can no longer hold blood and then shrinks and disappears.
Americans spend billions of dollars each year on anti-aging solutions, including creams and other topical products along with expensive invasive surgeries. And while much of the focus is the face and neck, one of the biggest places we show our age is in our hands. But what most people don’t know is that there is a painless, non-invasive procedure called Sclerotherapy that can
When hearing this explanation, many people ask: “Don’t I need those veins?” But the anatomy of the arms and hands is similar to that of the legs and feet, in that the superficial veins (the ones seen just under the skin) are not essential to the cardiovascular system. There is a rich network of deep veins that can more than adequately do the job of carrying blood to
and from the heart. When treating hand and arm veins, however, it’s important to leave at least one superficial vein for future use with intravenous medications. What are the benefits? The benefits of this treatment are many. Sclerotherapy is a relatively quick procedure that usually takes 20-30 minutes, and does not require you to go to a hospital. The procedure also does not require any anesthesia, and it is virtually painless. A compression glove or wrap is used after treatment, but otherwise, you are able to return immediately to your regular daily activities. In fact, most patients have no trouble driving themselves home. The best benefit is that after treatment, there is no scarring, and you are left with smoother,
more beautiful younger looking hands and arms. What are the risks? There are, essentially, no real risks or side effects with this procedure. Oftentimes with leg treatment, there can be a darkening of the skin. But this does not occur in the hands. There may be some mild swelling and tenderness in the treated areas, but this resolves itself quickly. If you want to further discuss what Sclerotherapy may be able to do for your hands and arms, please don’t hesitate to contact our offices at 760-944-9263 or visit us at www.sdveininstitute.com.

SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO 1409 Fourth Avenue San Diego, CA 92101 Madge Bradley Courthouse Estate of: JOHN MICHAEL TAYLOR, Decedent AMENDED NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: JOHN MICHAEL TAYLOR CASE NUMBER: 37-2015-00022433-PR-PW-CTL To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of JOHN MICHAEL TAYLOR, JOHN TAYLOR. A Petition for Probate has been filed by KIMBERLY TAYLOR KING in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN DIEGO. The petition for Probate requests that KIMBERLY TAYLOR KING, Trustee, be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 4/30/15 Time: 1:30 P.M. Dept.: PC-2. Room Address of court: same as noted above. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a
contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

In deep water in the kitchen The Kitchen Shrink
BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN California is becoming desert-dry in the fourth year of a severe drought that has depleted rivers, lakes and snowpacks. Drop by drop, we can make a difference in our culinary methods by cooking with little or no water. Here’s how. Use your noodle Buy no-boil lasagna noodles that can be baked dry, without the need to boil first. Just add extra tomato sauce and plenty of cheese so the noodles will soften and become tender. Smaller pasta shapes like gemelli or elbows
don’t require much water when boiling, and as long as you stir constantly, risotto-style, this will prevent clumping and sticking. Thaw out When thawing frozen turkeys, chickens, lamb shanks or roasts, do so in the refrigerator rather than in a tub of water. Turkeys should be defrosted in its original wrapper, breast side up, one day for every 4 pounds. So a 12-pound bird will take roughly three days to thaw in the refrigerator. Magical Moroccan one-pot Tagines are savory, slow-cooked Moroccan stews of chicken, lamb, beef or fish blended with vegetables, dried fruits, preserved lemons and exotic herbs and spices, including turmeric, saffron and coriander, simmered in cooking vessels that bear the same name. The conical shape of the traditional ceramic or clay tagine, reminiscent of the Tin Man’s hat from “The Wizard of Oz,” allows heat to circulate evenly so all ingredients cook uniformly, while trapping the flavorful liquids inside. This method not only requires Spartan amounts of water, but braises the meats and vegetables to a delicate tenderness. Authentic Moroccan tagine dishes are served on a bed of fluffy couscous, which also uses small amounts of water to prepare. Give it juice Squeezing or juicing assorted fruits and vegetables will give a nutritious liquid base (and H2O substitute) for salad dressings, marinades, soups and stews, sauces and purees. Beet and carrot juices add a boost of antioxidants and betacarotene, along with eye candy to many dishes; lemons, limes and ginger infuse a tangy Vitamin C zip to stir fries and salads; cucumber gives a refreshing zing to salsas and dips, while watermelon, pomegranate, mangoes, kiwi, plums, grapes and peaches dial up both sweet and savory
RELIGION & spirituality
Sauté vegetables that produce a lot of water to keep fish, fowl, meats and grains succulent, soft and tender. Wild mushrooms of most varieties, whether crimini, Portobello, oyster and/or shiitake, create abundant flavorful juices when gently cooked, along with tomatoes, especially heirlooms and vine-ripened ones. Eggplant, on the other hand, tends to be a sponge, absorbing liquids.
Water Recycling When steaming vegetables or boiling pasta, this precious water can be creatively recycled along with adding a nutritional oomph to other foods. Use pasta water to thicken soups, stews and sauces, and vegetable water to thin them out while also adding another layer of flavor. For additional stingy water recipes, email kitchenshrink@san.rr.com.
Water-Conserving Wild Mushroom & Wine Risotto uses the liquid from the mushrooms to help cook the rice. salads, and supply a confetti of luscious liquid color and flavor to wild caught fish and grilled chicken. Chardonnay for the cure Swap out water for wine, stocks and broths when concocting casseroles, risottos, pilafs, pastas, poached fish and assorted seafood dishes, especially cioppinos and bouillabaisses. Wet and wild
Heat oil in a heavy skillet and sauté onions and mushrooms for one minute. Add rice, coating the grains with the oil. Over medium heat, stir in wine until absorbed. Add the remaining liquid one-half cup at a time, stirring constantly until absorbed. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese. Garnish with lemon zest. Serves 4.

back and are paid for their work. The more they produce in one day, the more money they earn per piece. “We love nature and we’re inspired by nature,” said Leakey about the company’s sustainable products. The products are available on the company’s website and at various stores, including Fair Trade Décor in Del Mar, Urban Girl Accessories in Del Mar and San Diego, Bliss 101 in Encinitas and the San Diego Zoo. The Leakey Collection has been a member of the Fair Trade Federation, a trade association that strengthens and promotes North American organizations fully committed to fair trade, for at least a decade. The company recently had to renew its membership, proving that it sources all of its products in compliance with the Fair Trade Principles and the Code of Practice. Leakey was one of many fair trade producers and store owners in Del Mar from March 24-26 for the association’s annual conference. She was one of the event’s keynote speakers. “The benefits of fair trade are incredible — it’s life-changing for the people on the ground, the producers, the artisans around the world,” she said. “Fair trade is not a gimmick. Fair trade is not a slogan. Fair trade transforms communities. It really, truly does.” For example, when the Leakeys moved to the area where they are living now, she said that many people were malnourished, few children had clothing and at least one woman would die during childbirth each month. “It was really one of the most poor areas of Kenya,” she said. Within a few years of establishing fair trade work opportunities, however, the community has completely transformed. When the women began earning money, they first fed their children, then enrolled an additional child in school, and later used surplus money to start a small business. Having a larger role in the local community and economy, said Leakey, means that “women now have a political voice, which they never had before. They are actively working to shape the community. “That’s what fair trade does. It wouldn’t happen if people didn’t buy fair trade products.” For more about The Leakey Collection, visit www.leakeycollection.com.
