Play Ball! "Take me out to the ball game, take me out with the crowd..." Baseball season is in full swing, from the major leagues to tee ball. I am fortunate this year to assist in coaching my son's little league team. Go Aztecs! I can't thank my son's team manager enough for all the time he and all the volunteers put in to make the league successful. It is a huge undertaking, but it sure is fun and rewarding. I am watching this year as the proverbial "switch" is being turned on in these little leaguers. Most of the 8 years olds have a few years of baseball experience under their belts, allowing them to take huge strides in improving their skills. Their understanding of the rules and their excitement for the game is contagious. Our division of little league just started allowing the players to steal bases. I laughed as a little guy slid into 3rd base during our recent game. He popped up, dusted himself off, and proudly proclaimed through his cute little lisp that it was his first stolen base in 5 seasons of playing baseball. He was so happy, and I felt privileged as the base coach to share that moment with him. South County FIAT in Mission Viejo is celebrating its Grand Opening this month. The all new FIAT 500e electric vehicle is featured on our cover. Drop in and check out this environmentally friendly car, and the entire FIAT lineup. Pat Lustig, owner of South County Lexus, is expanding his Italian presence with this new dealership. Pat is proud to also offer Maserati sports cars, and he will soon have Alfa Romeo vehicles at the dealership. See what the auto manufacturers of Italy have been tinkering with lately. Thank you for reading The Local DISH Magazine! Matt Vicelja

south county fiat The Italians are coming! The Italians are coming! This historically inaccurate quote was recently made famous from a national television campaign by the auto manufacturer FIAT. Good news for you, the Italian vehicles are no longer in transit, they are here and available today at South County FIAT. Pat Lustig, Operating Partner of South County FIAT and Maserati (Alfa Romeo to be added this summer), has expanded his automotive footprint with his new dealership in Mission Viejo. Lustig is a 35 year veteran of the car industry. In 2010, Lustig unveiled South County Lexus on Marguerite Parkway near Saddleback College. Four years later, his second dealership brings the sexy appeal of Italian cars to our coastal communities. The dealership offers the entirely revamped FIAT line of vehicles, the legendary Maserati sports cars, and the luxurious Alfa Romeos will be coming soon. Pat is proud to work side-by-side with his two sons, Pat Jr. and Houston. Pat Jr. is a Finance Manager and Houston is in the sales department, truly making this a family run business. Lustig shared that the retail automotive industry requires long hours, late nights and weekends. "I tried to keep my sons out of the business just like my dad advised me," admitted Lustig. "I'm blessed that they chose to work with me. Working with Pat and Houston is very fulfilling." FIAT was born over 50 years ago, emerging from Post WWII Italy. FIAT has grown and is now the parent company of Ferrari, Maserati, Alpha Romeo and Chrysler. The company from the start prided itself on being a liberating form of self-expression. This spirit continues today, with a variety of FIAT models to fit your personality. The new 2014 500L is the first 4-door, 5 passenger

vehicle in FIAT's history. The 500e is a 2-door hatchback that is solely electric. FIAT offers convertibles, traditional 2-door hatchbacks and has special edition 2014 series, including a 500 GQ series, a 1957 Edition of the 2014 FIAT 500, and a "Small and Wicked" 500 Abarth. Lustig believes that FIAT rounds out the entry level car that was missing with his Lexus dealership. "We have many young adults that FIAT reaches, with models starting under $17,000," he adds. "This price-point fills a huge gap in sporty, compact offerings for the public." The FIAT 500e is featured on the cover of the magazine this month. This electric dynamo delivers over 100 MPGe, and comes with the valuable HOV carpool lane stickers to zip you around the freeways of Orange County. South County FIAT is eager to share their excitement about this vehicle. You can drive off in your own FIAT 500e with only $995 down, and a payment of $199/month on a 36-month lease. "This is an incredible offer," states Lustig. "You can have a stylish car and get stickers to drive in the carpool lane. All this while you are being environmentally friendly."
Pat Lustig and his team at South County FIAT take pride in maintaining a hassle-free environment in their dealerships. The staff ensures that their primary goal is to find a vehicle that best fits the needs and budget of their customers. Head down to South County FIAT today and see what Pat and the Italian Auto manufacturers have to offer you and your family.

Expanding their appeal in the industry, the 2014 500L is FIAT's entry into the compact car marketplace. The 500L has room for five passengers. The company has an amazing television campaign to promote this revolutionary vehicle, including a current "Mirage" commercial featuring Sean "Diddy" Combs. Come see for yourself that the 4-door FIAT vehicles do exist, starting at $19,195. With 25MPG in the city, 33 MPG on the highway, the fuel-efficient car has tons to offer. Get a behind the scenes look at the South County FIAT photo shoot on YouTube.

VARICOSE VEINS?
Pain? Swelling? Achy Legs? Take your life back!
15% OFF
Do you have heavy, achy, itchy or restless legs at the end of the day? Do you see bulging, unsightly veins across your legs or feet? Then you may be one of 80 million Americans who are plagued with varicose veins and may not even realize you have them. Why suffer needlessly when treatment is just around the corner at Dr. Anne Luhan’s office in Dana Point. Her medical expertise is now being focused on a revolutionary procedure for the elimination of varicose veins that takes only 15 minutes, right in the office, with little downtime or discomfort, and is covered by Medicare and most major insurance companies.
*With purchase of $100 or more. Applies to clothing and shoes only. Does not include jewelry, accessories, candles or skincare products. Not to be combined with any other discount or offer. Good through 5/31/14.
Many who have experienced varicose veins believe they are simply a cosmetic issue that is more of a nuisance than a genuine medical concern. The fact is that varicose veins are a massively underdiagnosed and undertreated problem that can progress into a more serious medical condition, if not addressed properly. Dr. Luhan is making it her mission to educate patients and the community about varicose veins and has partnered with the national campaign “Rethink Varicose Veins” to spread the word.

Once patients learn they are a candidate for the cutting edge treatment that delivers maximum results with minimal pain, they are elated to finally have a solution to their nagging problem. Utilizing the efficacious thermoablation treatment, Dr. Luhan is able to offer patients an in-office procedure requiring no anesthesia. For many, this is a life-altering change that allows them to now lead active, productive lives.

HAPPENINGS
INFO
WHEN May 17 & 18, 2014
WHERE Doheny State Beach in Dana Point, 25300 Dana Point Harbor Drive. HOURS Doors open at 11a.m. daily (10 a.m. for Gold and 10:15 a.m. for VIP) and the music ends at 9:00 p.m. (8:30 p.m. on Sunday). FOOD Great music and tasty grub awaits. The International Food Court will include a variety of authentic vendors. You can sample everything from BBQ ribs to cajun sausage to vegetarian pitas. Beverages of all types will be available, including beer, wine, cocktails, water and non-alcoholic beverages. What TO BRING A low-back chair, blanket, one personal bottle of water is OK, still camera (no video), sunscreen, and cash/ATM/credit cards. Re-entry will be allowed with a wristband. Celebrating 17 years of Blues On The Beach, Omega Events will present a stellar line up of talent for the upcoming Doheny Blues Festival, Saturday and Sunday, May 17th and 18th. Recognized as one of the top blues music festivals in the nation, Gregg Allman, Buddy Guy and The Doobie Brothers will headline this year's highly anticipated two-day event. The concert weekend is held annually at Doheny State Beach in Dana Point. A limited number of general admission and Gold tickets are still available. Gregg Allman is one of the most acclaimed and beloved icons in rock and roll history. As founding member and vocalist for pioneering Southern rockers The Allman Brothers Band, Allman’s soulful voice is one of the defining sounds in American music history. Long considered an interpreter of blues music, Allman’s latest release, Low Country Blues, his seventh solo recording, earned a Grammy Nomination for Best Blues Album. Recently, Allman shocked the music world when he announced that 2014 marks the final year for The Allman Brothers Band. His appearance at Doheny Blues will be his only Southern California appearance with the band. Hailing from Northern California, The Doobie Brothers' propulsive roots-based, harmony-laden, guitardriven sound has become an American musical institution. The Doobies have rung up a glittering track record that would be the envy of any band. Beginning with their multi-million-selling sophomore collection Toulouse Street (1972), the Doobies sold more than 30 million albums, including the Best of the Doobies (1976), which sold more than 11 million copies – a rare “diamond record.” Their multiple number one 34 may 2014
thelocaldishmagazine.com
singles include “Black Water,” “What a Fool Believes,” “Rockin’ Down the Highway,” “China Grove,” “Takin’ it to the Streets,” and “Minute by Minute.” Buddy Guy is one of the titans of Blues music, straddling traditional and modern forms of the genre, as well as musical generations. A Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Guy is also acknowledged as a major influence on rockers Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, among others. A pioneer of Chicago’s fabled West Side Sound, he is a living link to that city’s halcyon days of electric blues. Bestowed with six Grammy Awards, the Presidential National Medal of Arts, 28 Blues Music Awards (the most any artist has received), and the Billboard magazine Century Award for distinguished artistic achievement. Rolling Stone magazine ranks him in the top 25 of its “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.” Joining these three legendary artists will be another 22 musical acts, including Gov't Mule, Keb' Mo', Vintage Trouble, James Cotton, Ruthie Foster, Charles Bradley and The Extraordinaires, John Nemeth & the Bo-Keys, James Intveld & Rosie Flores, The Mannish Boys, Roy Gaines and more. Please visit www.dohenybluesfestival.com for the complete list of performers Saturday and Sunday.

BACKPORCH The Backporch, the third stage of music, is a tree-lined setting where fans can experience intimate sets and microbrewed beers. TICKET PRICES General admission tickets will be $60 per day, $110 for a 2-day pass, kids (6-12) only $15. Gold tickets with backstage lounge access are also available.

TEETH WHITENING
QUESTION: What is swimmers ear and how do I avoid it? —Melanie, Dana Point ROSS MEDICAL: Swimmer’s ear (or Otitis Externa) is an infection of the external ear canal. This is more common in persons who spend a lot of time in the water like surfers, divers and swimmers. The ear canal is protected by cerumen, which maintains a slightly acidic environment that fights bacteria. Repeated exposure to water, sand and debris removes the protective barrier of the ear canal making the ear susceptible to bacterial invasion. Symptoms of swimmer’s ear include ear pain, itching, discharge, pressure, or hearing loss. The classic sign is tenderness when the outer ear is pulled gently. In more severe cases, the ear canal will be red, inflamed and swollen shut. Persons who are diabetic or immunosuppressed are at risk for a more serious infection, which may spread deeper through the canal to the underlying bone.

If you suspect you or your family member has swimmer’s ear, they should be seen by a physician. Treatment involves removal of debris, and a topical steroid and antibiotic solution. Persons who have had swimmer’s ear are susceptible to further episodes and it’s important to keep the ears dry or to use custom fitting ear plugs. Homemade ear drops may help prevent swimmer’s ear No appointment? after water exposure. Use a 1:1 solution That’s quite ok... of white vinegar and warm water; apply a few drops in each canal after swimming. This will help dry the canal and maintain the acidic environment which helps fight bacteria. —Dr. Karl J Gebhard, MD

Emotional eating is when we use food as a way to deal with our feelings. We become aware of this when we are laying on our bed struggling to zip up our jeans! It is easy to put on 10-40 pounds in a year by stuffing our emotions and using food to self-soothe. HealtHy Coping 1. Allow yourself to be sad, angry and/or frustrated. Experience your emotions, do not ignore them. 2. Keep a journal of your thoughts and feelings. 3. Exercise to release tension. Do something you enjoy like bike riding, walking on the beach, running, going to the gym or yoga. 4. Eat 5-6 small meals a day and water to avoid feeling “starved.” 5. Talk to a trusted friend or therapist to resolve your feelings and issues.

Izza Pizzeria Marbella Plaza
where too much of a good thing can be truly wonderful we source all of our meats, seafood & produce from environmentally conscious purveyors
BY BONNIE SMALL
Top-shelf toppings will never make a pizza great unless they sit atop a fabulous foundation. Depending on where you’re from, you may have been raised on the purity of a Neapolitan style thin crust or the high rising Chicago style pie, but either way, when it comes down to good pizza, it’s all about the crust. San Clemente’s Izza Pizzeria is branching out from its singular focus on Neapolitan style pizza to embrace dough diversity. New owner, and Chicago native, Ron Gelet has upped the ante and now offers New York Style crust and his own signature deep dish Numero Uno pizza alongside the super simplicity of the Neapolitan style. The individual-sized Numero Uno pizza is the house specialty and one bite will reveal the reason – the thick, sweet crust is dabbed with a light tomato sauce, cheese, and two additional toppings of your choice. Fresh from the oven to the table, this compact pizza proves that the best things do come in small packages. I recommend taking an extra one home for a midnight snack by the glow of the refrigerator light.
all consumables are GMO, antibiotic & hormone free our menu changes seasonally to ensure the freshest & finest ingredients

The sky’s the limit for New York or Neapolitan crust lovers – you can design your own creation or choose one of the chef’s artisan creations like the Rugula (prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, arugula, and tomato sauce) or step outside the pizza box and try the Cal Italia – Croatian fig preserves, mozzarella and blue cheeses, prosciutto, shaved parmigiano, nicely finished with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Chef Remiel showcases his pasta skills with daily specials like Shrimp Ravioli with gorgonzola cream sauce or the portobello mushroom ravioli with a rich demi-glace. And save room for dessert because the cheesecake and caramel budino topped with freshly whipped cream are both house-made and home runs. Izza loves supporting local schools and organizations by hosting fundraising events and donating a portion of meal prices to their causes. Wine lovers can treat themselves and stop in on Thursdays for 50% off bottles of wine!
