First ladies’ collection at the Smithsonian
By Sally Holland When people think of the first ladies collection, they immediately think of the famous displays of gowns, but the collection is much more than clothing. With more than 1,000 objects, the collection documents the lives and contributions of America’s first ladies. The collection has grown along with the public’s interest in learning more about the first ladies. It includes material related to their social and

political activities as well as their gowns. This broader focus has made it possible for the Museum’s exhibitions to explore more complex and interpretive stories about the role that the first ladies played in American politics and culture. From bustles to silk chiffon with organza flowers and Swarovski crystals, the newly updated first ladies exhibition at the National Museum of American History is an extravaganza of frills and fashion.
The Coto de Caza News
The first ladies’ gowns have been shown at the Smithsonian for 97 years in at least 10 separate exhibitions, the latest of which will open to the public on Saturday. Eight of the 26 dresses in “The First Ladies” exhibition are new to the display, as the curators work to rotate in different dresses in an attempt to extend the life of the collection as a whole. Light, climate and gravity are harmful to fabric. Taking them off display can help keep the gowns in good condition “so that this almost hundred-year-old show, the thing that your grandmother brought you to, your granddaughter can bring her granddaughter to come and see,” said curator Lisa Kathleen Graddy. “We wanted to balance color and style and time periods and some things that hadn’t been out before,” said Graddy. They also wanted to focus on first ladies who had a strong fashion presence, she added. The new additions on display include a dark blue, sparkly flapperstyle dress worn by Grace Coolidge, and a pink silk brocade gown worn by Dolley Madison. According to Graddy, first ladies have popularized colors, as Nancy
Reagan did with red; they have been praised for their modest and simple attire, like Lucy Hayes; and they have been trendsetting icons, like Jacqueline Kennedy. “They’ve also coped with the public interest in their fashion sense, which is a somewhat unexpected part of the job for many first ladies,” Graddy said. Michelle Obama’s 2009 inaugural gown of white silk chiffon is a centerpiece of the exhibit. The oneshouldered gown designed by Jason Wu shares a display case with the Jimmy Choo shoes and jewelry she wore with the dress. Videos and pictures of the first ladies wearing the gowns accompany the dress display at the museum, adding another dimension to the way visitors see the dresses. In addition to the gowns, “The First Ladies” exhibit includes White House china and other personal possessions of first ladies. “The first ladies’ artifacts make up one of the most enduring and popular collections of the Smithsonian,” said Marc Pachter, interim director of the American History Museum.

Travel tips to help introverts enjoy every journey If you’re an introvert, traveling can be a challenge. Being introverted can increase the anxiety you feel when engaging in already-stressful business travel, and undermine your enjoyment of a leisure trip. Being forced to sit next to and even socialize with numerous other people, many of them strangers, can be torture for introverts. “Introverts aren’t necessarily loners or even shy,” says Jim Menge, president of Rovia, an award-winning travel services provider. “They’re just more bothered by travel hassles like crowds, intense together time, and interacting with strangers. It’s important for introverted travelers and their traveling companions to plan an itinerary that will make the trip as stress-free and enjoyable as possible for everyone.” Reserved, not shy About 50 percent of the population are introverts, according to Psychology Today. And while stereotypes may portray introverts as shy, socially phobic loners, that’s not at all who they are. “Introverts are drained by social encounters and energized by solitary, often creative pursuits,” the online journal explains. “Many introverts socialize easily; they just strongly prefer not to.” Your introversion may make you think a group travel experience would never be for you; you’ll stick to taking trips with your core family members and friends. Yet with the right itinerary, introverted travelers can find the perfect balance of alonetime and group activities, whether they’re traveling for business or pleasure. Travel tips Menge offers these tips for introverted travelers and the traveling companions who love them: * Talk about your plans with your travel companions, especially if you’ll be touring with extroverts. It’s important everyone discusses
what they can do to make the trip as enjoyable as possible for everyone. * Consider how comfortable you are with stretching your limits. “Each person is unique and has their own level of comfort with pushing themselves to try new experiences,” Menge says. “Think about what you’re comfortable with.” For example, learning and using a few foreign phrases, or talking with one person outside the tour group can be a low-stress triumph. * Many introverts are energized by creative and meaningful pursuits. If that describes you, voluntourism may be a great group travel option. Voluntourism is vacation travel with a volunteering component, and it allows you to have meaningful interaction with both locals and fellow travelers that goes beyond the small talk you may dread. Voluntour itineraries like those offered by WorldVentures balance work and relaxation, and volunteer projects can last from a single day to several weeks. One day of your trip, you may work with others to build a school, and the next day have free time to explore the sights and sounds of the destination. * Allow yourself adequate free time to get away from the group by yourself (if safe to do so) or with a handful of close loved ones. That away time will allow you to recharge
so you’re more relaxed when you rejoin the larger group. * Look for accommodations that won’t force you into social situations. For example, a B&B, where dining is communal, might be an uncomfortable environment for an introverted traveler, while a larger hotel may allow for more anonymity and independence. * Choose activities that allow you to enjoy “me-time,” even if you’re with others. For example, a hike on a scenic and moderate to strenuous trail will allow for more quiet time - even in a larger group. Everyone will be concentrating on walking carefully and breathing, rather than on socializing. * Use technology to give yourself alone time when you can’t physically get away from others. Wearing headphones or using an e-reader can silently alert your travel companions that you need some time to yourself. “You’re not being rude, you’re just doing what you need to do to recharge,” Menge says. “It’s perfectly OK to do what you need to do in order to maximize your enjoyment of your trip.” You can learn more about voluntourism and group travel opportunities that will please both introverts and extroverts at www. dreamtrips.com. - (BPT)

PACIFIC SYMPHONY CAPTURES IMAGINATIONS WITH MUSICAL LANDSCAPES OF SCOTLAND FOR BRUCH’S “SCOTTISH FANTASY” In a musical tribute to the United Kingdom’s northern most country, former assistant conductor of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, David Danzmayr, makes his Pacific Symphony debut leading three different musical perspectives evoking the wild, romantic landscapes of Scotland. Most recognizable are Max Bruch’s fantasy on Scottish folk melodies for violin, played with great virtuosity by Chinese violinist Ning Feng, and Mendelssohn’s “Scottish” Symphony, inspired by a walking tour of the ruins of Edinburgh’s Holyrood Palace. Less familiar but also highly evocative is Scottish composer Hamish MacCunn’s “Land of the Mountains and the Flood”—a “charming Scotch overture that carries you over the hills and far away,” as George Bernard Shaw once described it. This concert takes place Thursday through Saturday, Feb. 2-4, at 8 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. A preview talk with Alan Chapman begins at 7 p.m. Tickets are $25-$125 (Box Circle, $195); for more information or to purchase tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org. The program spotlights Bruch, a composer whose violin music managed to include a little of everything—singing lines, passionate phrasing, extreme dynamics, overarching drama, as well as doubleand triple-stops. And while Bruch’s first violin concerto is his best known, he was far from a one-hit wonder, having written two other muchadmired violin concertos, including the beloved “Scottish Fantasy.” Bruch’s “Scottish Fantasy” is one of the most admired works in the violin repertory among audiences and players alike. Ironically, Bruch—who wrote more than 200 well-crafted pieces—resented the success of his first violin concerto, simply because it eclipsed his other compositions and hindered both his career and finances. Fortunately, he went on to compose his “Scottish Fantasy,” which he completed 14 years later. The “Scottish Fantasy” was written in 1880 while Bruch was conducting in England. While remaining a devoted fan of Mendelssohn and Schumann, Bruch was also a strong opponent of Wagner and Liszt, and by the turn of the century, such opinions were considered old-fashioned and did nothing to support his reputation and legacy. If not for Bruch’s friendships with the violin luminaries of his day (Ferdinand David, Joseph Joachim, Pablo de Sarasate) and the nine works he composed for their instrument— particularly his First Violin Concerto and the “Scottish Fantasy”—his music might have been forgotten. But Bruch believed that the violin could “sing a melody better than a piano” and his use of folk tunes provided the perfect inspiration to prove his point. He believed deeply in the spirit of each song and recreated compelling moods perfectly. Page 8
David Danzmayr
Giving Bruch’s piece its due is international sensation Feng, who is drawing great acclaim from audiences and critics alike. The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung called his skill, “supervirtuosity—natural and paired with exceptional sensibility for nuance.” TimeOut wrote: “The young Chinese violinist wowed the bravospouting audience with his effortless virtuosity, clarity and command…it was Ning who stole the show.” And the New Zealand Herald raved: “Ning Feng’s total mastery could be seen in the precision and sweep of his bow, and heard in the effortless tonal range, from sweet to sumptuous.” Feng was first-prize winner of the 2005 Michael Hill International Violin Competition (New Zealand) and in the International Paganini Competition in 2006. Sharing the Symphony’s stage with Bruch’s work is Felix Mendelssohn’s Third Symphony, which was the result of a “grand tour” of Europe. Considered part of his education, the well-to-do young 19th-century man had already visited several countries when in 1829 his father, a wealthy banker, sent him off on a new threeyear expedition with England as the first stop. After giving concerts in London and receiving much acclaim in society circles, Mendelssohn headed north to Scotland, where a visit to the ruins of the chapel of Holyrood Castle near Edinburgh ignited his imagination. Mendelssohn wrote home: “This evening in the deep twilight, we went to the palace where Queen Mary lived and loved; there is a small room with a winding staircase leading up to it... The adjacent chapel has lost its roof; grass and ivy grow thickly within; and on the broken altar Mary was crowned Queen of Scotland. Everything there is in ruins and ramshackle, open to the blue sky. I think I have today

found the opening of my ‘Scottish’ Symphony.” The young composer began writing immediately. The tour continued to Italy in 1830, where Mendelssohn continued to work on the symphony. But the warm Mediterranean climate took over his attention. “The loveliest time of the year in Italy is the period from April 15 to May 15,” he wrote home from Rome in 1831. “Who then can blame me for not being able to return to the mists of Scotland? I have therefore laid aside the symphony for the present.” The “present” turned out to last 10 years, but the result of this delay was a more polished and mature “Scottish” Symphony. He completed the work in Berlin in 1842, and conducted the first performance in Leipzig six weeks later. He dedicated it to one of his greatest admirers, Queen Victoria. The third piece on the Symphony’s program is less well known, but possesses its own compelling vision of Scotland’s countryside. In 1887, 82 years after Walter Scott wrote “Lay of the Last Minstrel,” the poem inspired the Scottish composer Hamish MacCunn to compose, “Land of the Mountains and the Flood.” Harsh, wild, yet lyrically beautiful, the simple tune and lush orchestra paint a picture of the sprawling Scottish landscape in this Romantic piece that became MacCunn’s most famous orchestral work. As a boy of 8, MacCunn had been taken to his first season of concerts, one of the famous August Manns’ series at Crystal Palace in London. So it seems appropriate that he should have returned there as a prodigious 19-year-old to hear the premiere performance of his major new work. Although the music critic George Bernard Shaw was not particularly kind in his review—attacking the perceived formulaic nature of its middle section—“The Land of the
Mountain and the Flood” has stood the test of time, remaining by far the composer’s most popular work. MacCunn, who lived in London, rather than the beloved Scottish countryside portrayed in his music, unfortunately died from an illness at the young age of 48. Described by The Herald as “extremely good, concise, clear, incisive and expressive,” Maestro Danzmayr is widely regarded as one of the most talented and exciting European conductors of his generation. Danzmayr is chief conductor of the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra in Croatia, the first to hold this title in seven years. As leader of this orchestra, he is following in the footsteps of famous conductors like Lovro von Matacic, Kazushi Ono and Dmitri Kitajenko. In the U.S., Danzmayr is music director of the ProMusica Chamber Orchestra in Ohio as well as the artistic advisor of the Breckenridge Music Festival. Previously, Danzmayr served as music director of the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra, where his performances was lauded regularly by both the Chicago Tribune and Chicago Classical Review. He has served as assistant conductor of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, which he conducted in more than 70 concerts, performing in all the major Scottish concert halls and in the prestigious Orkney-based St Magnus Festival. Danzmayr received his musical training at the University Mozarteum in Salzburg where, after initially studying piano, he went on to study conducting in the class of Dennis Russell Davies. Pacific Symphony’s Classical Series is made possible by the Hal and Jeanette Segerstrom Family Foundation, and receives additional support from The Westin South Coast Plaza, KUSC and PBS SoCal.

Get moving! 6 ways to add steps to your day If you spend a large portion of your day sitting, you’re not alone. Inactivity is one of the key factors contributing to the nation’s high rate of obesity and its related health effects. Research shows 50 to 70 percent of people spend six or more hours a day sitting, and 20 to 35 percent spend four or more hours a day watching TV. This type of inactivity - or ‘sitting disease’ - can lead to serious health conditions. For example, nearly 35 percent of U.S. adults are obese, and obesity-related conditions including heart disease, stroke, Type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancer are among the leading causes of preventable death. Annual medical spending on an obese patient is estimated to be $1,429 higher than it is for a person of normal weight, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). While those figures are discouraging, there is one easy solution that could have a profound impact. Walking is one of the simplest, least expensive and most effective ways individuals can improve their health. It does not require any special skills, expensive equipment or a gym membership. Below are six easy ways to incorporate more walking into your day: 1. Take a walk with a co-worker at lunchtime or schedule a walking
meeting. 2. Schedule a walk with the family after dinner. 3. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. 4. Walk to see a colleague rather than call or e-mail. 5. Get off the bus or train one stop early on your way to work. 6. Start or join a walking or hiking group. By getting just 30 minutes of moderate physical activity, such as a brisk walk, at least five times a week, you could realize significant health benefits. Walking has been shown to lower the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, hypertension and Type 2 diabetes, improve muscle, bone and joint health, maintain a healthy weight, lead to better sleep and provide a mental boost. That’s why the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association encourages individuals, groups and whole communities to take steps towards a healthier lifestyle through its WalkingWorks program. WalkingWorks, now in its 10th year, was developed in partnership with the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports to help Americans live healthier lives and reduce unnecessary medical costs. Blue Cross and Blue Shield companies across the country also host annual National Walk Lunch day events as a way to promote healthy habits by incorporating walking into a busy
work day. For more information on the Blue *Before beginning any weight loss Cross Blue Shield Association and or nutritional program or new exercise its member companies, please visit regime, consult with your doctor or www.BCBS.com. - (BPT) healthcare provider.

6 fast and fun after school snack ideas
Burning, Tingling, Numbness or Pain? Don’t Suffer Any Longer!
Proven Medical Neuropathy Treatment with an 87% Success Rate Available in Newport Beach Do you suffer from:
Reading, writing, arithmetic and so much more - school days are busy for kids. Lunch period provides a welcome break, but some schools schedule lunch as early as 10:30. By the end of the day, kids are famished. When your star students arrive home asking for a snack, you don’t have to reach for junk food. Here are some quick, simple and fun ideas for after-school snacks that are tasty and your kids will love. Savory popcorn bar Popped corn is 100 percent whole grain with plenty of fiber to help keep kids satisfied until dinner. Skip the processed microwave varieties and opt to pop on the stove or in an air popper. Then create a popcorn buffet by setting out small bowls and a variety of savory toppings such as finely shredded Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Kids can serve themselves and customize to their taste. Nice cream When the kids want ice cream, but you want a healthier snack, nice cream comes to the rescue. This simple ice cream alternative can be made by freezing sliced ripe bananas. When kids get home from school, blend these banana pieces until smooth for a cool, creamy treat. You can experiment with different flavors by adding a dab of peanut butter or a few strawberries to the blender. Quick and easy pizza bagels With pepperoni and tomato, pizza bagels are a quick, cheesy fix to afterschool hunger pangs. Start by turning the oven to the broiler setting. Then on a baking tray, place a split Thomas’ Plain Mini Bagel with the cut sides facing up. Spread tomato sauce on each bagel half and sprinkle each half with cheese. Add pepperoni halves and cherry tomato quarters. Place
under broiler until cheese is melted. Awesome apple slices Reinvent boring sliced apples with nut butter and granola. Simply slice apples, smear with your nut butter of choice, then roll in granola. For an extra treat, add a drizzle of raw honey, a few mini dark chocolate chips or a quick dash of rainbow sprinkles. Ants on a pond Parents grew up munching ants on a log, the snack that takes a celery spear smeared with peanut butter and lines raisins on top to look like ants. Give this classic a modern twist by slicing a Thomas’ Plain Mini Bagel in half, adding peanut butter and topping with chopped celery and raisins. This sweet-salty delight is guaranteed to get devoured. Apple and brie mini bagel appetizers Sweet and simple, this cheesy appetizer is the perfect snack after a long day of school. Creamy brie is the perfect pairing with juicy apples. Even Mom and Dad will want to snag a few of these. Ingredients: 2 Thomas’ Plain Mini Bagels, toasted 1 tablespoon of butter 1 wedge Brie cheese 1 Granny Smith apple 1 teaspoon cinnamon Directions: Split and toast two Thomas’ Mini Bagels until golden brown. Spread butter on each bagel half then slice in half again to create quarters. Slice the wedge of Brie cheese into eight equal portions and place one on each bagel quarter. Cut the apple into eight slices and place one slice on top of cheese. Sprinkle with cinnamon to taste.

TAX PLANNING STRATEGIES FOR 2016 FROM KIM COYLE CPA
Dear Client; As the end of the year approaches, it’s a good time to think of planning strategies that will help lowering your taxes for 2016. My goal is for you to leverage your tax deductions and credit to the fullest extent. I want to briefly discuss five different strategies that can be powerful tools in lowering your tax bill. And the really great part is that each of these strategies is easy to understand and implement. Here are the strategies: 1. Prepay Expenses The IRS allows cash-basis taxpayers to prepay and deduct qualifying expenses up to 12 months in advance (through December 2017) without challenge, adjustment, or change by the IRS. For a cash-basis taxpayer, qualifying expenses include lease payment on business vehicles, rent payments on offices and machinery, and business and malpractice insurance premiums. This is a great way to pump up your 2016 deductions with expenses you will eventually pay anyway. 2. Stop Billing Customers and Patients An easy strategy for reducing your taxable income for this year is to stop billing your customers until December 31, 2016. Customers, patients, and insurance companies generally don’t pay until billed. Not billing customers and patients is a time-tested tax planning strategy that business owner have used successfully for years. 3. Buy Office Equipment With Section 179, you can write off up to $500,000 of office equipment in 2016. Qualifying Section 179 purchases include new and used personal property such as equipment, computers, desks, chairs, and certain qualifying vehicles. To qualify for Section 179, you need to both buy the items and put them in business service on or before midnight December 31, 2016. 4. Use Your Credit Cards If you are a sole proprietor, the day you charge a purchase to your business or personal credit card is the day the expense is deductible, Therefore, as a proprietor, consider using your credit cards to buy office supplies and other business necessities. If you operate your business as a corporation, and if the corporation has a credit card in the corporate name, the same rule applies: the date of charge is the date of deduction for the corporation. But if you operate your business as a corporation and you are the personal owner of the credit card, the corporation must reimburse you if you want the corporation to realize the tax deduction, and that happens on the date of reimbursement. Thus, submit your expense report and have your corporation make its reimbursements to you before midnight on December 31. 5. Don’t Assume You Are Taking Too Many Deductions Make sure your record all of your rightful deductions for 2016, because if your business deductions exceed your business income, you have a tax loss for the year. After a few modifications to the loss, tax law calls this a “net operating loss,” or an NOL. The good news is that tax law allows you to carry back the NOL for two years and get instant refunds from taxes previously paid. If, after going back for two years, you still have unused losses, you can carry them forward for up to 20 years. In other words, you have a 22-year window during which you can realize the benefits of your deductions. So always document your expenses in order to get your rightful deductions. Please do not hesitate contact me if you want to discuss in greater depth any of the strategies outlined above.

Get adventurous with these 5 fun family activities
Before this year ends, take advantage of the free time you have to partake in fun activities with those you love the most: your family. It’s tempting to stick to the same routine of going to the local playground, taking in a movie or playing in the backyard. Why not try some new experiences this year and go on a family adventure? These five activities are fun for the whole family and will help create lasting memories together. Incorporate a couple (or all five!) ideas into your schedule to begin fall on a fun note. Take in a variety of wildlife at the zoo. Lions and tigers and bears, oh my! You don’t have to be a child to marvel at the unique and aweinspiring beauty of our world’s wildlife.

Before the sun goes down, take some time to learn about the various constellations, and have everyone in the family select their favorite one. Then, in the evening, lay out a blanket in your backyard for a night of star gazing, and see who can spot their favorite constellation. To amplify the adventure, turn the night into a backyard camping trip, complete with a tent, campfire and songs. Stop by the local animal shelter to take friendly pups on a walk.

Literacy Project raises $90,000 for beloved reading charity Photos by Ed Melliza The 7th annual “What Dreams are Made Of” gala at the Island Hotel raised $90,000, which exceeded the funding goal needed to allow The Literacy Project (TLP) to cross new county lines. With a crowd of 200 guests and supporters attending the event and enjoyed a dinner and wonderful live music by piano man Jimmy Foelber and singer Cathy Schreiner. Highlighting the event were three recent TLP graduates from Anaheim, who showed tremendous improvement after completing TLP’s successful reading program. The students were accompanied by their role models, adults who represent the career they dream to have in the future. The now third graders equipped with “Dream Cards” illustrating their perfect job, bravely took center stage to share their career aspirations. Jamie Gwen, celebrity chef and certified sommelier, served as the role model to Sophia; Ron Hartman, structural engineer, was a role model to Donald; and Ryan Peters, a detective and SWAT sergeant, was the role model to Armando. The “Dream Maker” award was presented to Los Angeles Angels Chairman, Dennis Kuhl for years of volunteerism. “They are making a difference,” said Kuhl of TLP, “You see these kids up here and how they now read and what their goals and ambitions are and it touches your heartstrings.” Kuhl, also a TLP board member, inspired Angels Baseball to support TLP by hosting an annual event, “Readers in the Outfield,” at Angel Stadium, which hosts TLP student graduate to an afternoon of literacy games with Angels Baseball Alumni. Cindy Galardi Culpepper, CEO of Wienerschnitzel, along with Marjorie and Ken Hironimus, Wienerschnitzel franchisees, presented TLP with a $50,000 donation. The donation will help expand the agency’s reading program services to Santa Ana and Los Angeles Unified School Districts. Culpepper, a board member and longtime supporter, also announced Wienerschnitzel has chosen TLP as their company’s primary cause-related nonprofit and have branded TLP’s logo on their drink cups. Karen Galardi, daughter of the late founder of Galardi Group Inc. John Galardi and the company’s community relations and giving officer, also made the presentation. Sue Grant, TLP Founder, gave an impassioned speech as she passed the baton on stage to Doe Girling. After eight years of running the organization and a cumulative $2.5 million raised during her tenure, she now assumes the role as board chair. “This has been a humbling experience to lead such a meaningful organization,” stated Grant, “But I feel this is just the beginning of our far more reaching success for illiterate children. No great mind should be left behind.” Daughter Crystal Cannon surprised Grant with closing remarks on her mom’s influence as a role model in philanthropy. To date, The Literacy Project (TLP) has helped more than 5,000 illiterate second graders throughout Long Beach, Orange County and Coachella Valley school districts. TLP offers a comprehensive instructional reading program that improves both academic and attitudinal levels of students performing far below reading standards. The program is provided at “no cost” to both the school and at-risk students in the second grade. The program teaches the fundamental principles of phonics and literacy in all three learning modalities—auditory, visual and tactile—critical to children with varying learning styles. The Literacy Project specifically services the most at-risk children to ensure their English proficiency as a lifelong foundational tool to produce contributing members of society.

1. Coto de Caza News Readers can afford your very Best! According to reliable sources such as the U.S. census bureau the area served by the Coto de Caza News one of Orange County’s highest income groups. These affluent nearby homeowners in Coto de Caza, Dove Canyon, and the gated communities surrounding Rancho Santa Margarita have more money to spend and the time to spend it. Make sure that these readers are aware of your company and what you do by keeping a regular, affordable advertising message in the newspaper that all of them read every week 2. Why pay more to reach your most preferred customers? Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the most expensive advertising is advertising that doesn’t work. Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would bring you customers. Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in Coto de Caza, Dove Canyon and Rancho Santa Margarita? While some glossy monthly magazines are stylish, their costly rates may not be realistic compared to choosing a highly effective newspaper like the Coto de Caza News which is received by your most likely preferred customers of high income homeowners with advertising that costs you far less money. The Coto de Caza news is attractive, effective and affordable. 3. Why do Rancho Santa Margarita Readers read the Coto de Caza News?

Winning ideas for beating winter blues Nearly 150 days separate the last day of the winter holidays from the first unofficial day of summer - Memorial Day. After holiday decorations get packed away, and winter sets in, it’s not uncommon to experience a touch - or more - of winter boredom. Some people may find themselves in a rut during those long 150 days. Fortunately, a number of tactics can help perk up your spirits. Here is a handful to consider as you enter 2014: Escape the routine Traveling during winter has many benefits. In many areas of the country, winter months are slower business times for hotels and resorts, and you may find great deals. What’s more, breaking up the routine and going somewhere new and exciting - or relaxing - may help alleviate winter blues. Immersing yourself in relaxation and pampering could be just what you need to release winter tensions. Places like The American Club resort in the quaint Village of Kohler, Wis., offers luxurious accommodations and the opportunity to step outside the winter routine. The newly renovated Carriage House sits above the fivestar Kohler Waters Spa. Owned by
Kohler Co., the leading manufacturer of bathing products, it’s no surprise the spa is renowned for its cuttingedge bathing and hydrotherapy services. Such destinations offer you the opportunity to immerse yourself in luxury and do absolutely nothing, or get your blood pumping with all the exciting attractions, activities and culinary experiences at the resort and surrounding area. Refresh your environment Travel isn’t always possible, but you can still experience a change in perspective when you make changes in your home environment. Kitchen and bathroom renovations are top choices and winter is a great time to tackle those projects. If you have the budget, by all means - go big. But if your budget is more modest, don’t despair; even small changes like new shower heads, faucets and accessories can give a room a spirit-lifting new look and feel. Doubt the power of a shower head to transform a bath? Consider the KOHLER Moxie Showerhead + Wireless Speaker. Its wireless speaker pairs with devices enabled with Bluetooth technology, offering a delightful and energizing showering
experience. Available in four new colors (Chartreuse, Retro Blue, Navy Blue or Cherry Red), this showerhead will not only provide new decor but also an upgraded showering experience. Make your own holidays Who says you have to limit spiritlifting celebrations to specific days of the year? If gathering with family and friends around the dinner table makes you happy, why not choose one day a month and have everyone over? Decorate for a theme that you enjoy - such as the beach or even the Fourth of July in January.
Celebrate each family member with a special outing. Perhaps in January, your first-grader will choose a trip to the local indoor playground. In February, your husband might opt for a family bowling night. Allowing each member of the family to choose a destination gets everyone involved and excited. Plus, unusual family outings are a great way to brighten winter days. The days between New Year’s and spring don’t have to drag. Just step outside the routine - whether through travel or innovation at home - to help beat the winter blues. -BPT
Simple ways baby boomers can boost heart health It’s rare to find a person who hasn’t been affected by heart disease in some way. As the leading cause of death for both men and women in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, heart disease - and how to avoid it - should be top of mind, especially for baby boomers. Beyond scary statistics, heart health is about being able to live life to the fullest for as long as possible. -”Heart health is directly related to well-being,” says registered dietician Brooke Joanna Benlifer. “A strong and healthy heart allows one to be more physically active. Heart health can be directly influenced by healthy food choices and an active lifestyle, in addition to emotional well-being.” To help boomers give a big boost to their heart health, Benlifer offers some important expert tips: 1. Understand and eat good fats “Unsaturated fats are the good fats,” says Benlifer. “They are found in nuts, avocado, olive oil, flax seeds, hemp seeds, chia seeds as well as in fatty fish and fish oils.” While incorporating good fats into your diet, Benlifer also says it’s important to avoid bad fats. “Saturated fats are less healthy and are found in full-fat dairy products and lard, as well as in fatty cuts of beef. The worst kinds of fats are the trans fats, aka partially hydrogenated oils. These tend to be found in packaged and processed food items, allowing them to be shelf stable,” she says. 2. Eat heart healthy foods The food you eat affects the health of your heart as well as your whole body. Eating nutritious foods
helps you look and feel your best. Top heart healthy foods include: * Fresh fruits and vegetables * Whole grains/high fiber foods such as peas, beans and oatmeal * Low-fat dairy products or calcium-rich foods * Lean proteins, especially plant-based proteins like pumpkin seeds, quinoa, soy and legumes * Healthy fats 3. Cook the heart healthy way There are three simple strategies to use to help you cook - and therefore eat - the heart healthy way. “First, use olive oil, canola oil or coconut oil a healthier saturated fat - when cooking,” says Benlifer. “Next, try to steam and bake foods rather than deep frying. Finally, use fresh foods whenever possible and cook at home!” 4. Adopt a heart healthy supplement routine It can be difficult to get all the nutrients your body needs simply through food, so supplements can be a good option for boomers and busy adults. Numerous studies have proven heart healthy benefits of omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s include DHA and EPA, both healthy fats found in fish oil supplements. “DHA helps keep arteries clear and reduces inflammation,” Benlifer says. “EPA keeps plaque from rupturing. I use Nordic Naturals fish oil supplements for myself and my family, and have been doing so for years. I trust their quality and their commitment to education and research.” 5. Learn to love exercise Exercise is crucial for both physical and mental
benefits, including stress reduction. Remember, the heart is a muscle; aerobic exercise is great for strengthening the heart. “I recommend, if cleared by one’s doctor, that someone incorporate 30 to 60 minutes of exercise daily into his or her life,” says Benlifer. “A combination of cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise, strength training and flexibility training, or more restorative movement (yoga, tai chi, etc.) is important.” Finally, in order for boomers to stay healthy and keep their heart strong, Benlifer recommends prioritizing sleep. “Sleep helps the body restore itself and is also highly correlated with a healthy weight. The less sleep one gets, the more likely he or she is to be overweight and stressed,” she says.

Move over carrots: other key nutrients for healthy vision Popeye trumps Bugs Bunny - at least for your eyes. An overwhelming majority of Americans - 89 percent identify carrots as the best food to eat to ensure healthy eyes but far fewer, 32 percent, know that spinach can help support their vision too, according to a survey by Kelton/DSM Nutritional Products. Move over carrots and betacarotene, there are other foods and nutrients that appeal to eye health. Dr. Michael Roizen, author and cofounder of RealAge.com, provides a brief tutorial on the best nutrients for eye health. Lutein and zeaxanthin - The same survey found that less than half of Americans (41 percent) are familiar with lutein and only 6 percent of Americans are familiar with the nutrient zeaxanthin. Of the 600 known carotenoids, these are the only two that are found in the retina of the eye. Eat dark leafy greens (like spinach) and eggs and you’re on your way to incorporating lutein and zeaxanthin into your daily diet. While there is no established recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for lutein and zeaxanthin, the American Optometric Association recommends 10 mg per day of lutein and 2 mg per day of zeaxanthin. The recently published AREDS 2
(Age-Related Eye Disease Study 2) was launched to determine whether a combination of key nutrients including vitamins C and E, lutein, zeaxanthin, beta-carotene and omega-3s - can further reduce the risk of progression from the common dry macular degeneration to advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Secondary analysis showed that the group receiving lutein and zeaxanthin versus those not taking lutein and zeaxanthin, had a 9 percent risk reduction for progression to advanced AMD. DHA and EPA omega-3s - DHA omega-3, found in fatty fish, fish oil and algae (the fish get it from algae—they don’t make it themselves), is a major structural fat in the retina of your eye (and in your brain). It plays an important role in infant visual development, in visual function throughout life, and in eyesight and memory support with aging. The LUTEGA study, published in JAMA Ophthalmology showed that supplementation of lutein, zeaxanthin, DHA and EPA omega3s result in increased concentrations of these nutrients in plasma and a significant improvement in the optical density of the macular pigment in 172 individuals with “dry” AMD.
Vitamin E - This essential vitamin, found in oils, wheat germ and peanuts, is an antioxidant that supports eye health. It may be difficult to get the recommended daily amount of vitamin E through diet alone - 15 mg/day for anyone older than 14. For example, to get 15 mg of vitamin E, you would need to eat one cup of peanuts that comes with about 827 calories. You can also get this vitamin in foods such as spinach, salmon and walnuts. But, if you’re not eating foods rich in these nutrients on a daily basis, consider adding supplements
specifically formulated for eye health. Some of these supplements include Ocuvite, i-Caps and Centrum Specialist Vision. Check with your physician before starting any supplement program. Roizen’s quick tips on how you can help support the health of your eyes include: 1. Avoid smoke, including secondhand smoke; 2. Wear UV protective sunglasses; 3. Take in 10 mg of lutein and 2 mg of zeaxanthin every day; 4. Get 900 mg of DHA omega-3 a day. -BPT
Prepare your car for winter with these simple tips Getting ready for winter is no small feat. It takes time and planning to make sure your family and your home are ready to brave the elements. But is your car as ready as you are? If you haven’t thought about preparations for your vehicle, these simple tips will help you prepare for the colder months ahead. * Check your tires. You depend on your tires more during the winter than any other season. So before the roads get slick, check your tires to be sure they aren’t worn and that they are properly inflated. You should be able to find the proper tire pressure on the inside of your driver’s side door. Once you’re sure your tire pressure is appropriate, make a note to check again later in the winter. Cold air will cause the air in your tires to compress and may cause your tires to lose pressure. * Check your brakes. Your brakes will work harder once the icy conditions of winter set in. Make sure they are up to the task by bringing your vehicle in to your mechanic for a thorough brake inspection. * Wash and wax your car at a professional car wash. Putting your car through the car wash during the sloppiest season of the year may seem a strange idea but a thorough wash can remove harmful compounds that may cause damage when mixed with Page 24
sand and road salt. Experts from the International Carwash Association also recommend a coat of wax for an extra layer of protection from the elements. Besides protecting your car, you’ll also be protecting the environment. Professional car washes can save up to 20 percent of the amount of water you’d use by washing your car at home. They do this by treating and reusing their water, rather than releasing toxic chemicals and grime into the storm drains, which can often occur when you wash your car yourself. You can learn more about the environmental benefits of a professional car wash at washwithwatersavers.com. * Check fluids. It’s good practice to stay on top of fluids such as oil, windshield washer or transmission fluid. But in the winter, no fluid is more important than your coolant because, if you’re out of coolant, you’re out of heat. Your owner’s manual will tell you how much coolant you need as well and provide the correct blend. It’s also never a bad idea to keep an additional bottle of coolant in your car for emergencies. * Test your battery. A lack of coolant will stop your heater from working and so will a dead battery. Before you head out this winter, be sure your battery is working properly. No one wants to be stranded by the side of the road

with a dead battery and, in the cold winter months, being stranded could be dangerous. * Check your wipers. You checked the wiper fluid along with your other fluids but don’t forget the wipers themselves. Replace old wiper blades and make sure to have a reservoir full of wiper fluid. * Winter emergency kit. Sometimes all the preparation in the world can’t prevent a winter emergency. If you find yourself stranded by the side of the road, a winter survival kit can be very helpful. Include an ice scraper/ brush, extra blankets or clothes - in-
cluding hats and gloves - snacks and bottled water and a first aid kit. A small shovel can come in handy if you get stuck and a bag of cat litter can be used to provide needed traction for your tires. Getting your vehicle ready for winter while temperatures are still mild is a proactive approach to preventive maintenance that helps ensure safety, reliability and fewer unexpected repairs when severe winter weather strikes. By planning ahead you can ensure that your family and your car will be in for a smooth ride all winter long. -BPT

Avoiding footwear fumbles when exercising or playing sports No one disputes that exercise provides a host of health benefits, from helping control weight to improving cardiovascular functions. But exercising in the wrong footwear can cause more harm than good, especially since foot health is integral to overall well-being. “To get the most out of your workout or from playing a favorite sport, it’s imperative to choose the right footwear for the type of exercise you’ll engage in,” says Dr. Matthew Garoufalis, a podiatrist and president of the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA). “Improper footwear can lead to irritation and injury.” Foot or ankle sprains and fractures are the most common types of injuries related to exercise and footwear. The type of exercise or sport you prefer can influence the type of injury you could experience. In general for example, foot and ankle sprains and fractures are more common among football players, while basketball players may suffer more ankle sprains and runners experience stress fractures to feet or ankles. Here is some guidance on how to avoid foot injury while exercising:
* Always warm up before exercise. Just as you stretch to warm up leg and arm muscles, your feet need to warm up gradually too. * If you experience foot pain while exercising or engaging in physical activity, stop immediately. Foot pain is not normal and you shouldn’t feel any when you exercise. If pain persists even after you stop your workout, see a podiatrist. * Always wear supportive shoes that are appropriate for the type of physical activity you’re engaging in. Choosing the right footwear can help ensure you minimize the risk of injury and enjoy a more productive and comfortable workout. When choosing workout or sports footwear, keep these pointers in mind: * Choose a running shoe based on your foot type: low/flat arch, normal arch or high arch. If you have a low or no arch, you need a supportive shoe designed for stability and motioncontrol. Normal arched feet require a shoe with a balance of stability and cushioning to help absorb shock when your feet meet the ground. For people with high arches, a cushioned running shoe with a softer midsole and more flexibility compensates for
the poor natural shock absorption of the higher arch. * Also take into account the kind of activity you’ll do. Runners need more arch support and cushioning to absorb impact. Basketball players require extra ankle support to prevent injury from side-to-side movement which is why basketball shoes come up over the ankles. * Don’t go it alone when you’re shopping for a workout or sports shoe. Go to a store that specializes in athletic footwear and ask to be professionally fitted before you buy. Shoes should fit comfortably as soon
as you try them on; never assume you’ll “break in” an uncomfortable athletic shoe. Shop toward the end of the day, when feet are at their largest due to normal daily swelling. * Whatever your exercise or sport of choice, your athletic shoes should offer plenty of support in the front and back. Finally, when athletic shoes begin to show signs of wearing out, it’s time to replace them. Examine the tread, especially around mid-sole. Generally, you should replace athletic shoes every year, and running shoes every 300 to 400 miles. -BPT
How to Keep Your Jewelry Sparkly By Sarah E. Johnson Jewelry, whether real gold and silver or faux, should be carefully maintained in order to get the most out of it. Rings adorn most girls’ fingers and ears on a daily basis, and if we’re not cleaning them daily, then we are failing to protect our (sometimes) valuable investment. 1. Never apply lotion, wash your hands, or wash your hair with rings on. The detergents and chemicals in these products will collect on your metals causing them to look dim, and sometimes they even cause a permanent change in color reports Olivia Palermo on her blog. 2. When cleaning jewelry, never use products containing alcohols, ammonia, and vinegar cautions MichellesVintageJewelry.com. These products will change the color of your metal just like the detergents mentioned above will. 3. HowToCleanStuff.net says that a great way to keep your jewelry always looking its best, is to wipe it down with a non-lint-producing cloth after taking it off. If you do a quick dry polish every time you wash your hands,
your pieces will always be shiny and in optimal viewing condition. 4. Treat all jewelry with care, and make sure to check all fastenings before cleaning them to prevent losing stones and gems suggests BlitzInc.com. 5. Some useful tools for cleaning delicate pieces include: -Baby toothbrushes (the bristles are soft and you don’t have to worry about them marking your metals or stones. -Wooden toothpicks (for crevices) -Cotton swabs (for delicate application of cleaner and water. -Towels (never let water dry on your jewelry) 6. If you’re uncertain or insecure about cleaning your favorite pieces, lushaejewelry.com suggests, taking them to a professional. Your jewelry can be cleaned while you shop at the mall in most locales. Wearing clean, shiny jewelry isn’t just hygienic; it’s good fashion also good fashion sense. There’s really no excuse for wearing dingy pieces because jewelry is so easy to clean.

n many American households, once-unfamiliar sustainability practices have become commonplace. Current data from the Environmental Protection Agency shows a national recycling rate of about 34 percent, more than double the 16 percent rate in 1990. Even so, more than 167 million tons of waste still ends up in landfills each year. Food waste is a major contributor to landfill excess, representing about 35 million tons annually. However, because food is such an integral aspect of daily life, it’s also an area where small changes can add up to a big impacts. These eco-friendly tips can make it easier to move toward more sustainable consumption:
Plan a weekly menu.
If you typically take a casual approach to grocery shopping, you’re likely purchasing ingredients for a single meal that could be repurposed two or three times over. This is especially true with produce; unused portions are left to spoil and ultimately end up in the trash. Instead, determine what meals require ingredients to prepare and create a shopping list that maximizes the use of each item. For example, if you’re planning on burgers one night, consider tacos the next evening to use up any leftover lettuce and tomato.
Give leftovers a makeover.
If you can’t easily repurpose ingredients or you’re left with a hodgepodge of items, consider making a dish that really shines with an eclectic mix of ingredients. Casseroles, stir-fry and even smoothies are great ways to use up a selection of random ingredients.
Shop smart.
Buying in bulk may seem like a smart money-saving strategy, but if the food goes bad before you’re able to use it, you’re actually wasting both food and money. Also take time to peruse your pantry before heading out to the store; it’s easy to buy duplicates when you’re not sure what you have on hand.
Cut back plastics and packaging.
Rely on cloth or canvas totes for your shopping, and when you must use plastic, look for ways to reuse the bags. In a similar vein, avoid purchasing products with excess packaging, which is often produced using unsustainable methods and only adds to the landfill problem.
Fill the freezer.
Many perishable food items, such as meat and produce, can be prepped and frozen, ensuring they don’t go bad and saving you cooking time throughout the week. Clear, reusable storage bags or containers make it easy to find what you need and a date marked on a small piece of masking tape will help you use the oldest items first.
Compost unused food items.
The EPA estimates that as much as 96 percent of food waste that could be composted ends up in landfills instead. Rather than tossing foods that go bad, create your own compost pile and put that waste to work as a natural fertilizer for your plants and flowers. Composted fertilizer is a nutrient-rich way to protect your landscape while reducing landfill waste. It’s been said that the kitchen is the heart of the home. It’s also a place where you can easily incorporate responsible, earth-friendly practices that can help nourish the planet for generations to come.

Free-range hens on a happy egg co. farm, photo courtesy of the happy egg co.
3 SIMPLE RULES FOR HEALTHY, HAPPY EGGS When you head to the grocery store for organic eggs, you assume a certain level of quality in how your eggs were produced. While there are standards and requirements that companies follow in labeling their eggs, the standards lack regulation and don’t truly reflect whether or not hens are treated humanely. The USDA’s latest proposed outdoor space requirements would give hens a mere 2 square feet of space in order to carry the USDA organic label. To put things into perspective, the average cubicle size in the U.S. is 75 square feet. The proposed requirements are the human equivalent of running laps in an elevator, essentially. While an improved organic standard would be a step in the right direction, it makes no headway in terms of alleviating consumer confusion over carton labeling. Rather than providing animal welfare-conscious consumers with the confidence that they are purchasing humanely produced eggs, it proposes living conditions for hens that are neither humane nor safe. Consumers should be able to trust the packaging, labels and imagery that they find on their carton of eggs, but oftentimes these labels say little to nothing about the way the hens were treated.
To reinforce the integrity of the organic seal, hens should be given far more space than what has been outlined by the USDA. In order for hens to live happier, healthier lives, the happy egg co., the first U.S. free-range egg brand to be certified by the American Humane Association, abides by three simple rules: 1. Give Them Space: The happy egg co. provides 21.8 square feet of space per hen, which is equivalent to roughly 20 shoe boxes high, long and wide – plenty of space for them to stretch their wings, dust bathe, forage and roam freely. 2. Give Them Enrichment: Providing hens with “henrichment” structures, including play kits and perches, encourages them to spend most of their day outside. This enrichment is meant to stimulate their natural instincts, which can only be exhibited outside of a cage or barn. 3. Keep Consumers Safe: The FDA requires that egg producers test for salmonella once in a hen’s lifespan, but testing for salmonella every 15 weeks helps ensure that only the highest quality eggs enter the food chain.

Fitness Facts the Experts Won’t Tell You By Carolyn Blevins You’re going to be sore somewhere. It’s just a fact of life and you know it. If you take a person who is essentially a physical lump and that lump suddenly starts a fitness routine, the lump gets sore, someplace. Even a well conditioned, athletic person will be sore when they incorporate a new activity into their usual fitness routine. Fitness in one sport or physical activity oftentimes doesn’t translate well, meaning that I can run five miles a day and still find myself wheezing my way through an aerobics routine, complete with burning muscles, strangled gasps for breath and thoughts like, “Whose stupid idea was this, anyway?” running through my head. And even with my fivemiles-a-day capability, please don’t ask me to walk hills. My fanny will still be aching days later. I’d rather run a hill than walk it. Why? Because that’s the way my muscles are trained and because of that, running hills doesn’t make them sore and burning. Walking hills does. Muscles are creatures of habit. They get use to being used (or not used) in a certain way and it takes a bit of coaxing to get them to adjust to new circumstances. So what’s the answer to sore, achy muscles? Gentle stretching and another moderate workout. You need to coax the soreness out of the muscles while at the same time gently continue your new routine. The key word here is gently. Gentle stretching, gentle, varied workouts and rest periods. If I’m starting a walking routine, I might try for a half mile my first couple of days (based on my current fitness level and my dislike of walking) with gentle stretching before and after. If there’s going to be any sore and achy muscles involved, they’ll hit no later than Day Three. On that day, rather than taking the day off, I’ll do my gentle stretching and maybe walk a flat quarter mile, followed by more gentle stretching and then take Day Four off. The burning, aching muscles are caused by lactic acid buildup. Lactic acid is the waste product built up by working muscles. If you run your car, you burn gas. But you also create waste with the exhaust. Consider lactic acid as your muscles’ equivalent of exhaust. It needs to go away or we’ll poison our fitness efforts. Gentle stretching, varied workouts and intermittent “rest days” relieve the aches while also teaching your muscles to work more efficiently, burn fuel more effectively and lessen the amount of lactic acid buildup which occurs. The workout that seems to leave you a near cripple today will your “light” workout in a month or two as you fine tune your muscles and they become more efficient and stronger. And don’t forget to hydrate. Water helps flush the lactic acid out of the muscles and allows them to recover faster. You’re probably going to look worse before you look better. Most of the ladies know by heart that cellulite is subcutaneous fat and that it’s the last to go when we diet and exercise. That’s nothing new to us. But here’s the phenomenon no fitness and dieting guru will tell you, yet it’s true and very logical: Since you lose overall Page 28
body fat first, your “top layer” of fat as it were, the cellulite becomes more noticeable because it’s less buried behind other fat. In other words, for a little whileyou might actually look lumpier. Smaller, certainly, but lumpier. But it’s temporary. Keep up with your fitness routine and this temporary condition resolves itself pretty quickly. But you will be smaller. Workouts build muscle and reduce fat. Muscle weighs more than fat but it’s more compact, sleeker and obviously more toned. As your healthy muscles build and replace the fat you’re losing, you will become sleeker looking. And smaller and sleeker trumps big and lumpy any day of the week. Getting in shape is ugly. I get so sick of fitness shows and infomercials showing smiling, toned thin people in full makeup bouncing like corks in the water through their fitness routines in brand new matching sports bra and spandex pants. What most of us know logically is this and yet we still fall for the fantasy: These folks are in a studio with flattering lighting, they have stylists and makeup artists on hand and this “fitness routine” probably lasts all of 30 seconds at a pop. Not to mention God-knows-what surgical enhancement’s gone on. Let’s face it: In real life we don’t see too many natural 36Cs out there with washboard abs. I know from bitter personal experience that when you start to lose body fat, the boobs are the first to go. That’s not to say there aren’t some truly attractive, real people out there exercising. I see them sometimes. But I also know this, too, at least about my workouts: It’s not a fashion show and it’s not glamorous. I will sweat, I will be gasping for air at some point, my face will be red, my sweat-soaked hair will be plastered to my head and I’ll probably be grimacing. I will, in other words, look like hell. And I’ll stink, too. There’s nothing pretty, feminine or appealing about a workout. At least not mine, anyway. Getting in shape is work. Sometimes it’s psychological work - just getting amped up and in the right frame of mind to even get dressed out is tough some days, even for seasoned athletes. And sometimes it’s physical work sweaty, achy, wheezy physical work. After all, it’s called a “workout” not a “funout.” But here’s the thing: Once you conquer the psychological work - in other words, once you’ve gotten yourself off the couch and into your workout gear and step out the door (or into the gym) and get moving - the physical workout will take care of itself. Trust me. I’ve been an athletic person (running, aerobics, biking and such) off and on for 30 years. I’ve been chubby and I’ve been thin. And during those 30 years there were prolonged periods of inactivity where all I did, and wanted to do, was eat and sit around. I used to push myself to do better each day - run farther, run faster, get sweatier, “feel the burn,” and on and on and on. I’d worry over form and technique. When running, I’d worry over time versus distance. In aerobics, I’d worry about pointed
The Coto de Caza News
toes, breathing technique and being on the beat. I don’t worry anymore. Or very little anyway. Here’s the reason why, the key to the whole thing, and it only took me 30 years to figure it out: If I just put one foot in front of the other, the workout will come. The workout will come whether I’m concentrating on form or thinking about my grocery shopping list. The workout will come whether I run the hill in 30 seconds or 45 seconds. If I’m in our spare bedroom and jump around for a half hour, it doesn’t matter whether I’m jumping to the Black Eyed Peas or jumping while watching Seinfeld reruns. It doesn’t have to be pretty and it doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be. Disconnecting your mental self from what’s going on with your physical body can be a blessing. I’ve run big hills that I can’t specifically recollect because my brain was free-floating while my body handled the hill. When you put yourself on autopilot and let your body do with work (after all, your brain can’t run hills, can it?), working out also becomes a vacation for your mind and spirit as well as a healthy habit for the body. Someone, somewhere, is going to discourage you. It may be wellmeaning and unintentional or it may be a very pointed, specific sabotage attempt. It’s just human nature that we are comfortable with the status quo - it doesn’t matter whether the status quo sucks or not - we, on some level, crave our comfort zone. If sitting on the couch and weighing 180 pounds is my current comfort zone, that’s where I’ll want to be. Is it good? No. Healthy? No. Am I happy? No. What I am is comfortable. We stick with the devil we know versus the one we don’t. And I become my own saboteur. Or family members who are used to seeing you sitting around on Sunday mornings, drinking coffee, reading the paper and noshing on bagels or donuts, are uncomfortable when you try to get up and out the door for a workout. Why? Because you have gone out of your comfort zone, thereby affecting their comfort zone without their permission, and they don’t like it. It’s not spiteful, it’s probably not intentional and they probably couldn’t even explain it themselves.
But it can be threatening. For women, this concept can be particularly difficult. No offense to men, but the world is generally conditioned to accept a man doing something that makes him happy. Going to a bar, hanging out with the guys, taking in a football game..any activity which is entirely centered around the man’s pleasure, and only the man’s, is both accepted and acceptable. But what happens when mom does something for mom’s benefit and mom’s benefit only? You’re taking time away from the kids, away from the house, away from the spouse and making you the center of your universe for thirty whole minutes. Almost like you were a real person. Old habits die hard. Old, ingrained reactions die even harder. Everyone will get used to your new routine and the world won’t come to an end. Just be aware that discouragement, both self-generated and other-generated, is part of the game. Don’t let it take you by surprise and don’t let it hang around too long. Remember that the big giant controversy we’re talking about is a 30 minute workout three or four times a week. Keep it in perspective. If you’re not plotting to rob a bank or relocate the family to Sri Lanka, then there’s really no big deal afoot other than maybe bumping yourself up a notch or two on the mental priority list we all have running through our heads every waking hour. Big deal. And don’t take it personally. As human beings our kneejerk emotional reaction is to fear the unknown. You might fear your fitness routine because it’s new and unknown. Your family might be uneasy with your activities because it’s new and unknown, and therefore threatening. It’s not a big deal in the long run and it’ll pass. Big, life-altering changes often happen to us a little at a time, building block by building block, without us hardly being conscious of them. I wish you good luck, encouragement and a healthy sense of perspective with your fitness routine. Each step you take gets you one step closer to where you want to be. Literally. It doesn’t have to be pretty and it probably won’t be. Just keep taking one step at a time - which is really the only way they can be taken anyway, right?

Give your home a quick refresh with these budget-friendly tips Whether you are buying, selling or simply remodeling, you are looking to invest in updates that will increase the value and appeal of your home. It’s natural to want it all, but before you over-personalize or break the bank, there are many simple, budgetfriendly changes that can increase the value of your home without the risk. Cassandra LaValle, interior designer and editor of the acclaimed lifestyle and design site, Coco+Kelley, offers these tried and true tips for upping your home value without overdoing it. * Refresh with paint: You may not be able to replace large appliances or countertops, but in the kitchen adding a fresh coat of neutral paint to outdated cabinets and swapping out hardware can go a long way in making the space feel refreshed. * Little luxuries in the bathroom: Replace your current shower head with a rain shower, like the Waterpik RainFall+. Completely budget-friendly and easy to install - it takes less than five minutes - this showerhead
can make a huge difference in an everyday routine - giving a spalike experience with multiple highperformance spray settings. The same goes for lighting brightening up this space in particular can be a big selling point. * Don’t forget about the outside: Every home needs curb appeal. If you can’t afford major landscaping, focus on the entrance to the home. Again, updating with paint and hardware on the front door will be a welcoming touch, while a couple of really great potted plants at the entryway add to that focal point. * It’s in the details: Consider adding small details to rooms that will elevate the style. Framing out windows, or adding baseboards, molding or wainscoting to a space will leave it feeling a bit more polished. No matter how big or small your projects, remember it doesn’t take a lot of money to make a big impact to any space. - (BPT) Photo by Belathée

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
