Santa Margarita Students cross the Globe for Hour of Code Santa Margarita Catholic High School students joined 79 million other students across the globe for what is being called the largest learning event in history. The participating students were introduced or acquired new skills in coding as part of the worldwide Hour of Code initiative in celebration of Computer Science Education Week. The weeklong event, from Dec. 8-14, introduced students from 180-plus countries to computer science. On Dec. 11, about 45 students Santa Margarita students participated in an Hour of Code either in their Introduction to Computer Programming class or by attending an afterschool event organized by Kim Cozean who teaches Introduction to Computer Programming and AP Computer Science as well as math at SMCHS. Code.org, a nonprofit dedicated to expanding participation in computer science, began the grassroots campaign, designed to demystify code and show that anybody can learn the basics. “It’s pretty easy to learn,” said freshman Nicholas Fazio of Mission Viejo who attended the event afterschool. Last year, 15 million students tried computer science as part of the Hour of Code. This year, 79 million people and counting participated with a goal to get 100 million participants by the end of 2014. “The Hour of Code is designed to demystify code and show that computer science is not rocketscience, anybody can learn the basics,” said Hadi Partovi, founder and CEO of Code.org. The movement has some major backers and partners including Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, President Barack Obama, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Boys and Girls Clubs of America and the College Board to name a few. During the hour, students choose from a variety of self-guided coding activities. Jon Prentice, a Santa Margarita sophomore who attended the Hour of Code event afterschool, learned how to move a virtual character using code symbols, made his name float in bubbles and practiced Javascript at the event. “It’s a good idea to start young,” the Coto de Caza resident said. The possibilities are endless when it comes to coding, said junior Kevin Massey of Laguna Niguel. He was first intrigued by computer programming while attending the school’s club fair this fall where he saw students’ work brought to life on the screen while learning more about the school’s PixEL (Programmers, Innovators, Entrepreneurs and Leaders) club. “If you know code you can make anything you want on a computer and show it to the world,” he said. Page 2
“Technology is everything we do.” Sophomore Ethan Lee, who this year began the student run PiXEL club which teaches other students how to code, said he wants to show other students that programming is not difficult. “It’s really just a language,” the Laguna Niguel resident said. “Something you have to practice. It becomes second nature and it’s the best feeling in the world when you write code and then your work shows up on the screen.” Computer programming is essentially telling a computer what to do, Cozean said. Julia Real participates in Hour of Code. Real is taking Introduction In a world transformed by technology, many of the students who to Computer Programming at Santa Margarita Catholic High School. attended the event said coding was a skill they knew would be marketable and the idea of not struggling to find a job after college appealed to them. Recent stats show less than 2.4 percent of students graduate with a degree in computer science. The estimated number of grads in computing between 2010 and 2020 will meet less than one-third of the demand, according to Code.org. By 2020, an estimated one million computer programming jobs in the U.S. will go unfilled, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. “Kids these days are all stuck on their phones, their tablets and constantly using technology, but Jon Prentice practices coding as part of the Hour of Code. very few of them are learning how to create it,” Roxanne Emadi, a strategist at Code.org, told the New York Times. “Even if it’s something simple, like a kid programming a maze or programming a robot, when you can see your work brought to life, that’s where light bulbs go off.” At SMCHS, we are seeing an increased interest in computer programming. • In the past three years, the number of students taking computer programming and computer science courses at SMCHS has doubled. • This summer, SMCHS will offer Introduction to Computer Ethan Ko works on computer programming activities during an Hour Programming during summer school of Code event at Santa Margarita Catholic High School. • Students formed a club called PIxEL (Programmers, Innovators, Entrepreneurs and Leaders) this year. The club teaches other students coding and is student led with a faculty advisor. • SMCHS added a robotics class this school year. • Seven Santa Margarita graduates in the Class of 2014 reported they were going to major in computer science while two reported they were going to major in computer engineering. “We want to raise interest in computer science,” Cozean said. “Even if you don’t want to pursue coding as a career, it teaches problem solving skills. Anyone can learn to Ethan Lee , president and founder of the school’s PixEL (Programmers, program. Innovators, Entrepreneurs and Leaders)

How to get the most out of your new tablet in the new year Tablets are clearly today’s hot tech device: shipments will reach 184 million units in 2013 alone, estimates Gartner, an information technology research company. If you don’t already own a tablet, it’s very possible you might receive an iPad, Kindle or Nexus as a holiday gift. Knowing a few tricks to get the most out of your new mobile device will ensure it helps streamline your life both at work and at home. Software concerns and solutions: The kingpin of tablets is, of course, the iPad. Most people use their tablets alongside their existing technology so they complement each other and help make life simpler at home and on the go. If you have a Windows PC or a Mac at home, you might be concerned about if you can run programs you have on your home computer - like Word, Excel and PowerPoint - on your new tablet. Unfortunately, these and many other full-featured applications are not yet available on tablets. Remote access and functionality: Great news for iPad users is that today with Parallels Access for iPad (www.parallels.com/access) you can remotely access everything on your Mac or PC - including all of your full-featured applications such as Excel - and use native iPad gestures including tap, swipe, pinch and zoom, just like they were made for your iPad. You can even use Internet Explorer on your computer to watch Flash videos with sound via your iPad. No more waiting for the applications you already invested in to be available on the iPad - real mobile productivity is finally here. Now you can start leaving
your computer at home or work and use your iPad to get more done on the go. Did your daughter leave her homework on your home PC? Simply access your home computer from work with your iPad and email it to her teacher before today’s deadline. Did your boss request a few lastminute changes to your PowerPoint presentation but you are out of the office and unable to get back before his deadline? Relax. Use your iPad to tap into your work computer to quickly make and send the changes before his important meeting. From executives to soccer moms, Parallels Access enhances your iPad’s functionality so you can do what you need to easily and efficiently. Download a free trial of Parallels Access onto your iPad at the iTunes App Store. Battery life: Another main concern for tablet users is battery life. You may be surprised just how often you use your iPad for work and play, which means you’ll be using up your battery quickly. It’s important to learn how to conserve battery life so you’re not tethered to
an outlet constantly. Make it a habit to check the system’s task manager and close unused apps - simply double click the iPad home button and you’ll see the task bar displaying all open applications. Remember, even if you aren’t interacting with apps, if they remain open after you close them, they still suck energy. Quitting unused apps running in the background is a simple way to extend your iPad’s battery life. Another way to conserve energy and boost battery life is to adjust the screen light intensity. It takes energy to light that beautiful iPad screen, so it’s wise to adjust settings to as low as is comfortable without straining your eyes. Reducing your iPad from full-bright levels will help so you don’t get a battery warning sooner than you’d like - simple click on the settings icon on the screen and adjust appropriately. As more of the world goes mobile, tablets are here to stay. Use these tips to get the most out of your new iPad and enjoy the features and programs you love from all your technology devices.

Easy to Create 5 Course New Years Day Dinner By Kimberly Sharpe Now that I have a family I enjoy spending New Years day cooking for my loved ones. I always like us to have a large meal that we can sit down and share together. It is a way for us to celebrate the day. Here is a guide to a simple to create five course meal that is affordable and fairly fast. 1) Ham You will need a ham that is a large enough for your whole family to enjoy. I prefer a boneless variety but I normally buy whatever is on sale. You will need two cans of Pineapple Slices and tooth picks. Save the pineapple juice that the pineapples are housed within in your refrigerator. You will need them to make potato’s. Take your ham and place it in a roaster pan. Now open your two cans of pineapple slices. Stick a slice of pineapple at various points all over your ham. Use the tooth picks to hold the pineapple in place. Place two cups of water into the bottom of the roaster. Now cover your roasting pan with the lid or tinfoil. Place your ham in an oven at around 385 degrees. Cook the ham until thoroughly done. This might take a long time if you buy a raw ham but if you purchase one that is already cooked you will be looking at only a couple of hours. Simply follow the directions on the ham. 2) Whipped Potato’s Peel as many potato’s as it will take to feed your family. Simply boil the potato’s until done. Now mash them by hand or with a blender. Place several tablespoons of butter and a cup of milk in the potato’s as you mash. I also like to chop up fresh chives to place
within the potato’s. 3) Rolls I like to buy the rolls that are in a refrigerator section of your store. These frozen rolls you set out all day to let rise but you can use any rolls that you desire. Simple buy whatever you want or make your own from scratch. 4) Cream Corn with Sour Cream and Cornbread You will need one can of cream corn. A tub of sour cream. One box of the jiffy corn bread mix. And a bag of shredded cheese. Take the cornbread and prepare it according to the box of directions on the jiffy box. Now take the cream corn and poor over the top of the cornbread. Once this id done take the sour cream and frost the cream corn about an inch thick. Now completely cover the sour cream with the shredded cheese. Place into the
SAME DAY SERVICE
oven beside your ham and cook for half an hour until the cheese is completely melted and everything looks done. This is a wonderful and tasty fast side dish that is always a favorite in our house. 5) Sweet Gravy Once your ham is done, drain off the juice and mix it with the saved pineapple juice in a skillet. Add brown sugar to sweeten the mixture. Now take two tablespoons of corn starch and hot water. Mix this together in a cup and pour into the ham drippings, pineapple juice, and brown sugar. Bring this to a boil and stir until thick. This is your wonderful sweet gravy. This is great on your potato’s, ham, and even biscuits. This quick and easy dinner is sure to please your entire family. It is tasty and affordable. It also does not require that you spend hours in the kitchen preparing a decent meal for everyone.

What’s Your New Year’s Resolution? By David Robertson Christmas has past and the new years celebrations are upon us, but has all this over indulgence had an effect on our health? The new year is a great opportunity for kicking some of those bad habits and working off some of those gained extra pounds! Lets look at the most popular new years resolutions; Spending more time with those important to you Make plans to spend more quality time with friends, family and loved ones. Sometimes it just takes a moment to step back and re-evaluate what is important to you in life and to make sure you reflect this in your free time. There may be a need for big changes in your life to free up time to do this, maybe you’ve been devoting too many evenings to selfish activities. More exercise In these times, many of us don’t get enough regular exercise from our daily working lives. This can lead to long term health problems both physically and mentally, effecting your motivation, zest for life, well being, physical appearance, stamina, life expectancy and many more factors. Whether you decide to join a gym, go for daily jogs, cycle or work out at home etc.. the trick is to keep at it. Try to find a way of exercising that is enjoyable to you and will fit easily into your daily life otherwise you may not stick at it for long. Dieting Everyone loves to indulge over Christmas with all that extra food in the cupboards. The New Year is the perfect time to re-evaluate your eating habits,
so that the over indulgence in food and drink doesn’t turn into a habit that follows on into the new year. Enjoy life It’s very easy in this day and age to get caught up in the rat race and lose perspective of what we are doing on this planet. Sometimes we need to look at whats important to ourselves and begin making sure our efforts in life complement what you feel is important as an individual. Quit smoking Everyone knows, or should know the terrible effects that smoking has on the body. After a matter of weeks of quitting the habit the quitter will feel noticeably healthier physically, but the battle will still be a long and challenging one. Quit drinking Many people undertake a detox around this time of year, or even go the full hog and give up completely. Many people over Christmas and new year drink more than they normally would and this alone can be a reason to start a detox. The effects of alcohol on the liver can be fatal when in excess and even on a small scale drinking effects sleep and energy levels. Get out of debt Christmas affects all of us financially and for some this may have pushed the bank balance into the minus. In other cases the bank balance may have already been in the minus, either way this is a great time to make those changes needed in order to get your life back on track financially. Learn something new
Learning or doing something new is a great way to start the new year, this could be something that puts you in good stead in time to come, such as doing evening classes or it may be something just for personal enjoyment such as horse riding.

Realistic New Years Resolutions By Margo Prior So we are almost at that time of the year again; New Years Day. As a time honored tradition, thousands of people come up with hundreds of thousands of resolutions that they hope to stick to over the coming year. But what is a realistic type of resolution and how can we make sure we stick to them. Here are some ideas of what can be considered realistic and unrealistic New Years Resolutions and why. First resolution: I want to lose (an enormous amount) of weight this year. From enormous amount I mean anywhere from expecting more than two pounds of weight-loss a week to expecting to lose a large amount in a very ‘short’ period of time. Hundreds if not thousands of people flock to the gyms and buy some home gym equipment, exercise videos and new walking shoes, to only be totally frustrated when by the end of the first week or two, give or take a week, there is little if any progress to be seen on the scale. Well first of all, if you really and truly are interested in losing weight you must be doing it for the right reasons and not just because it is a new years resolution or because someone else is doing it or even to impress someone else. You must be doing it for yourself! You must be trying to lose weight because this is what is going to make you happy; the thought of a healthier, slimmer and trimmer you. Not the thoughts of what someone else might think or just to impress someone at a holiday party (or cause everyone else is saying it). If you are really serious about your weight-loss, then know that it took a good while to get that little bit of chubby on your body, so it will take a while to take it back off and it will take some work. You WILL have to exercise and you WILL have to curb your eating habits or change them slightly if you are normally eating on the ‘wrong types’ of food, like junk food and switch over to healthier foods; more vegetables, frozen or fresh is fine and LEANER meats. YES, exercise is a must. I don’t emphasize aerobics as much I do weight lifting. I am a believer in that weight lifting does a body so much more good, even though, aerobics does too, but weight lifting, even in small doses and working up to longer workouts can help you see your body shape up faster and show results quicker and more strikingly than just aerobics alone. Second resolution: I am not going to quit smoking cold turkey. No more smoking for me, period! Ha! Now that is one for the books. Not only is that unrealistic for some people it is also physically impossible!! The nicotine monster in some who smoke can cause any number of emotions to fly, especially anger. Have you seen that commercial that shows the little angry nicotine addicted sensors Page 8
in the body? Oh wow that is hilarious BUT it is also true! Unless you have the ultimate of willpower OR you have not been smoking for very long, then the fight to quit smoking may be a long and hard one. Realistically you should be looking at weaning yourself off of cigarettes. If you smoke a pack a day, cut yourself down say five cigarettes a day for a week or a month; what ever it takes for your body to adjust to that loss. Compensate yourself with something in return for doing such a good job. Make yourself a change jar or allow yourself to have one indulgence more than you normally would (especially if you are trying to lose weight at the same time, which I do NOT recommend!). Make a goal for a reasonable time to quit. Based on a one pack a day habit, I would not make it any sooner than comfortable but a time from of from four weeks (for a short time period habit) to four months or more (for a habit that has been maintained for much longer) and adjusted by the number of packs per day smoked, should be a ‘reasonable’ amount of time to allow your body to adjust to the ‘lack of’ nicotine. Any sooner could wind you up in a relapse and since no one likes to say they failed or fell back off the wagon, take it easy on yourself and take your resolution in baby steps and in steps comfortable to you! Don’t let anyone rush you or say it should happen sooner or faster. Only YOU will know how quickly your body and mind will allow you to let that habit go. Third resolution: Procrastination and relaxing/stressing over life or anything in general. Well, procrastination is a seriously hard habit to break. You can tell yourself that you will not put off anything any more. That you will live in the moment, do everything when it is time to do it or before, taking life by its horns and going for the blue ribbon. BUT, in all honesty, we all tend to ‘slide’ back into our normal habits, those of which we feel comfortable and if procrastinating, waiting till the last minute is the way we have ALWAYS handled what ever we had to do, then that habit, will be severely hard to break. There is good news though! It can be broken with time and some thought out efforts and daily reminders to our self on how we went to do things. For example: If you always wait till the last minute to write a paper for class and you would love to have the stress off of you of last minute-itis , then plan ahead to break that cycle. Know when your due date is, get your information early on in your project, whether it is reading a book or articles or something online then get your references ready to start writing. Okay, you have already done a lot right there to get prepared to write you paper and it is still early for you, plenty of time to get it done without waiting till the last
The Coto de Caza News
minute. When you still have a week or two to go before needing to have your paper turned in start writing your paper do a rough first draft the first day, then do another draft the next day or the final paper. IF it is necessary, do your last and final draft of your paper and in three days time in your last week (or sooner if you feel you can do it) with time left to spare, you are done with something you would have normally stayed up all night writing because you had procrastinated in getting done. This type of steps can be used for anything you procrastinate on from writing papers to writing articles to doing household chores. Each item you procrastinate on, shorten the time up some each time you do it by allowing your self to not be completely weaned instantly BUT allowing yourself some weakness. Knowing each and every time you are getting stronger and handling everyday life giving yourself the ability to handle more and more in life just because you now have the willpower, the strength and determination and the ability to balance life’s pressures more easily. Very similarly you can deal with or handle stress and your relaxation periods easier. You must allow yourself to know that you cannot do everything in life and in life there will always be surprises. That you can definitely count on. So why allow yourself to stress over the little stuff? Life is too short. Put a rubber band on your wrist and snap it every time you try to fall back into stressing over something in which you have no control. Or write yourself some small notes to tell yourself that you are only one person and you do a great job for who you are and what you do. Tell yourself those affirmations each and every day upon waking up: I am a great person; I am but only one person and what I do, I do good; Life is what it is and life is good; I love life and love being surrounded by those whom I love and cherish. Those are only a few affirmations that you can write down to repeat to yourself to help keep yourself from winding up into a tizzy anytime life comes at you with what might seem like a hundred pound mallet. Lastly: Having a list of New Years Resolutions that you want to accomplish and trying to do them all at once. For example: You want to lose weight and you want to quit smoking and you want to become an accomplished writer, possibly published, you want to be a better/ more attentive mother, father, husband, wife, sister or brother, you want to start investing in a 401k and start a Christmas
account, you want to try to quit cussing, fighting, fussing, gossiping, whatever it might be; you want to quit it all, starting TODAY! Realistically that is so not going to happen all at once. Give yourself a break. Write down everything you want to do over the next YEAR. Once you have them written down, number them in their importance on how soon you want to get them done and how important it is for you to complete them. The ones near the bottom of your list, you would like but if you don’t get to them, you won’t be crushed. The resolutions at the top of your list you will put your full attention to and complete them to the best of your ability, ONE at a time! Know how long each of them are going to take, individually and then figure out if you CAN do more than one at a time. If so, great!! But if not, take them one step at a time, getting as many of your resolutions done at or near the top of your list and the rest can be put on next years list. Maybe by then, they can be put on the top of your list of how important they are to get done and they will get done quicker than something else that may seem more trivial than those resolutions. Enjoy life. Have fun and live. Don’t put yourself through such stresses as thinking that if you do not complete these resolutions, again, that you area failure. You are NOT! They are just not as important to you as other things are in life and you should pride yourself in whatever it is that you have found to be more important and more importantly than that, pride yourself in the dedication you have in your life to do what you do well. Resolutions are just words written on paper, no on something set in stone and the world will NOT fall apart if you do not complete them. Life is about having fun, having a good life, spending time with our families and making some money while in the process of it all. Don’t sweat the small stuff and resolutions are just that. Some small fun stuff in life we give ourselves to drive ourselves crazy. Have fun with it and you will find your resolutions may not only happen they may happen sooner and with a better vigor than if you stressed yourself over getting them done!

New Year’s Eve Champagne By Julie Wimmer Champagne is a New Years Eve staple. Most people, when they hear the word Champagne, think celebration, and New Years Eve is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, celebrations in the world. Whether you are a Champagne and/or wine drinker or not, it is always fun to toast the new year with a sip of the bubbly stuff. Lucky for us, there are different kinds to choose from depending on your palate and budget. What are the different kinds of Champagne? Champagne, as most of us know, is basically sparkling wine, however, there are different types. There is sweet Champagne and dry Champagne, just like wine. When the bottle claims the Champagne is “Extra-dry,” that obviously means it is dry, however, “Brut” means it is the driest kind of Champagne. The sweet bottles of Champagne are called “Sec,” which is sweet, and “Demi-Sec,” which is the sweetest. Picking a dry Champagne or a sweet Champagne can depend on taste, food or price. My father is a wine connoisseur. He has been buy-
ing, tasting and testing wine’s since before I was born. We even had a full wine cellar, although it was raw (dug out from the basement with a metal rack put inside,) in our house growing up. Suggestions from my father: Sweet wine and Champagne, according to my father, go with cheeses, red meat and saltier fair. Dry wine and Champagne are better paired with desserts, fruits and sweeter dishes like a chicken dish with a sweet sauce. Buying Champagne When my husband and I went on our honeymoon in Nantucket years ago, we decided to over-splurge one night on dinner. We’d heard a particular restaurant was worth it, and it was, so we even splurged on the Champagne we ordered to toast ourselves. Each glass, however, was $25. We picked out what was considered an expensive Champagne, and it was certainly delicious, however, that price is steep. You can get a great Champagne at $25 for the entire bottle. You just have to know how to pick it. There are many brands, Korbel, Taittinger , Veuve (with that familiar
yellow label,), Dom Perignon, Freixenet and many more that we have seen at liquor stores or heard about from commercials or magazine ads. If you are having guests who know nothing about wine or Champagne and are only going to have a sip at midnight, then it’s okay to go with a Spumante (which you can get for $6) or Freixenet. If you care about the taste however, do some research. Dom Perignon is high end, and yes, delicious no matter what type you pick, but a bottle can run you $100 and up. If you have that sort of cash and want to spend it, great, you are very fortunate. Taittinger has been rated in wine magazines and they have bottles, both dry and sweet, that start at $23. A nice pick for a dinner party or New
Years Eve. Veuve is very popular, however they also have great prices (like Taittinger) and many fantastic tastes to choose from. This brand is a great option for a large party on New Years Eve.

Candlelight Concert 2014 Rings in the Holiday Season Segerstrom Center for the Arts celebrated its 41st annual Candlelight Concert with 350 guests who together, help raise nearly $1.9 million dollars to support the Center’s arts and education programs. Center Board member Shanaz Langson and her husband Jack served as co-chairs with Center Executive Vice President Judith (Judy) O’Dea Morr was the evening’s special honoree. Guests began their evening with a dramatic walk up the black carpet (in keeping with traditional Deco black, green and gold décor) to Segerstrom Hall’s Orchestra Terrace lobby. They were greeted with holiday music performed by the Sonora Elementary Hand bell Choir. After pausing for commemorative photos which they later took home, guests moved directly into the hall. Candlelight Concert is always held in Segerstrom Hall, the room is dramatically transformed into a glamorous Art Deco ballroom keeping with the Frank Sinatra Centennial (Old Blue Eyes would have been 100 years old on December 12th!). The Orchestra Level seating of the Segerstrom Hall was terraced, with the fifth and top level serving as a large reception area where the Veuve Clicquot and truffle bars were stationed. Massive chandeliers underwritten by Angela and James Hsu were suspended above the four lower terraces, which were used for dining and dancing. Art Deco architectural designs projected against the walks created the illusion of a grand vintage ballroom in a sophisticated bygone era. Star entertainment was provided by the renowned singer, musical director and conductor Frank Sinatra., Jr. and his 37-piece orchestra. San Francisco’s super band, Super Diamond, the group that has transcended the label of tribute band by passionately immersing themselves in Neil Diamond’s huge repertoire and delivering high-octane performances around the country played after dinner with folks dancing the night away to his greatest hits. Center Board Chairman Lawrence M. Higby concluded the remarks by announcing that the Center’s Founders Hall would be renamed The Judy Morr Theater. Higby said, “On behalf of the entire Board of Directors, it is our tremendous honor to celebrate the incredible contributions of Judy with this new name,” Higby stated. “We hope that she will continue to work her magic for many years to come. But with this name, we know that Judy will always be an unforgettable presence here at the Center.” Morr, who is celebrating her 30th anniversary with the Center, has helped chart its course to become one of the most prestigious and successful arts centers in the nation. The theater has been the site of many Center performances and special events, has served for as a rehearsal space for visiting ballet companies and choreographers, and will be an integral studio space for the ABT Gillespie School. Kia and Versace were sponsors of Candlelight Concert. Kia is the official automotive partner of the Center and provided the evening’s valet lounge. Versace hosted an in-store reception and showing of the celebrated women’s and men’s formalwear designs earlier in the year. A portion of the sales made at that event were donated to the Center by Versace. The Center presents a broad range of programming each season for audiences of all ages from throughout Orange County and beyond, including international ballet and dance, national tours of top Broadway shows, intimate performances of jazz and cabaret, contemporary artists, classical music performed by renowned chamber orchestras and ensembles, family-friendly programming, free performances open to the public from outdoor movie screenings to dancing on the plaza and many other special events. In addition to the presenting and producing institution Segerstrom Center for the Arts, the 14-acre campus also embraces the facilities of two independent acclaimed organizations: Tony Award®-winning South Coast Repertory and a site designated as the future home of the Orange County Museum of Art.

BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENTS! The Coto de Caza News is happy to announce the birth of your newborn:
Baby’s Name: Date of Birth: Weight:
A patient of long-standing came in s e v e r a l weeks ago, complaining that her teeth were sensitive, generally, all over mouth. When I visually Dr. Michael Tessier inspected her mouth, there was no evidence of cracked teeth, or tired-old fillings, or bad crowns, or gum recession- all the usual suspects. There was nothing that I could see that might contribute to tooth sensitivity. We treated the sensitive teeth on the right wide with the laser. When she came back two weeks later, she said that she couldn’t wait to have me do the left side, because all the sensitivity was gone on the right side. Positively amazing. So, when you eat ice cream, or drink a margarita, one of your molars, or maybe even a bicuspid, is sensitive. When you take that problem tooth to your friendly, neighborhood dentist, and he says you need that tooth capped (or crowned). What’s that about? When someone drills on a crystalline structure, like glass, or porcelain, or tooth enamel, the heat of friction from the drilling device puts microscopic fractures in the material. When a dentist has to put a big filling in a tooth, those little fractures pre-dispose that tooth to further fracture. The fractures

virtually split the tooth. Later, after years of chewing trauma, the nerve becomes irritated from this microscopic splitting during chewing or clenching. This hypersensitivity is usually manifested as temperature sensitivity. Just replacing the filling doesn’t help because the cracks are already there. A crown, on the other hand, holds the tooth together, like the band on a barrel, so the splitting activity stops. If the trauma to the nerve of the tooth didn’t damage that nerve irreparably, which would necessitate a root canal (removing the damaged nerve from the root of the tooth), a crown is all that’s necessary to allow you to return to the pleasures of ice cream-eating. There are also instances where a tooth is sensitive to cold or even sweets, and a fracture is not the culprit. This is most often a result of root sensitivity, where the root of the tooth is exposed due to gum recession. There is also a setting on my soft-tissue laser (Periolase) for treating teeth that are cold sensitive due to root sensitivity. Dr. Tessier says “If this article brings forward a question, please call me and we can chat. Consultation appointments are always complimentary. Please don’t hesitate to call my office if you have any questions about this process, or any other of the modern technologies we can use to make your smile whiter and your day better.” Dr. Michael Tessier is located in Los Flores plaza at 28562 Oso Parkway.

By Shelly McRae New Year celebrations symbolize the setting aside of the past and looking forward to a new year of prosperity and good health. When planning your New Year’s party, invite good fortune into your home with some of these good luck foods and traditions. Southern Traditions Hoppin’ John, a dish made from black-eyed peas and pork fat, is thought to have its origins from the African slaves of the early 1800s. As for its powers to attract good luck, that lies in a civil war legend. Lauren Salkeld, writing for Epicurous. com, explains that during a prolonged battle in Vicksburg, Mississippi food stores were nearly depleted when a large cache of black-eyed peas was discovered. The legume has since been considered a symbol of good luck. Serve the Hoppin’ John with an abundance of greens and cornbread. The greens, preferably collard greens, represent money, or more specifically, folding money, while the cornbread represents coin because it is the color of gold coin. European Traditions Greens aren’t just found in the good luck lore of the south. In Germany and Ireland, green cabbage is served with braised pork or corned beef. Legumes also grace the tables of New Year revelers in the European tradition; lentils in particular are paired with pork, as the lentils resemble coin and pork has its own place in the celebrations. Pork as a New Year’s Eve celebra-
tory food has origins from Spain, Portugal and Austria, among other European countries. The traditions include such delicious dishes as roasted suckling pig, roast pork, pork sausages and pigs’ feet. The pig is a good luck symbol for a prosperous New Year because of its habit of rutting forward; it digs in and pushes forward, letting nothing prevent it from reaching its goal. Hispanic Traditions The tradition of eating a grape at each stroke of the clock at midnight on New Year’s Eve originated in Spain, and was a response to a grape surplus in 1909. It was a practical solution and is now associated with foretelling the fortunes of the coming year. The tradition is common throughout Mexico and South America. The idea behind this tradition is to eat a grape at each chime of the clock, not to be confused with each second of a countdown to midnight. At midnight, in Spain, the clock in the Plaza del Sol chimes 12 times. A chime lasts just long enough to eat a grape- quickly. Each grape represents one month of the coming year. The first grape is indicative of January, then, and if sour, January may be a difficult month. Along with the tradition of 12 grapes is custom of placing a coin in the pan dulce, a Mexican sweet bread. The baker in the family hides a coin in one of the treats, and the recipient of the coin is said to have good luck throughout the year.

Of the many favorite decadent New Years desserts made annually, the Grand Marnier Soufflé has always been a big hit among the easy to make decadent New Years desserts. To make the Grand Marnier Soufflé, which is a favorite easy to make decadent New Years dessert you will need ¼ cup of sugar, 3 egg yolks, 3 tablespoons of all purpose flour, 1 cup of hot milk, the grated zest from one orange, ¼ cup Grand Marnier (or to taste), ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract, and 4 egg whites. Preheat the oven to 475 and butter and soufflé dish that is at least 2 ½ inches deep. You will then sprinkle sugar over the butter and shake out the excess. Refrigerate your soufflé dish for the time being. Combine the sugar and egg yolks and whisk until smooth, then whisk in the hot milk. Cook over moderate heat bringing to a boil until thick. Reduce the heat but continue to stir until the mixture thins at which point you will remove from heat, add the orange zest, vanilla, and Grand Marnier. In a small bowl, you will beat the
egg whites for 2 minutes. Take the Grand Marnier pastry mixture and fold in approximately 1/3 of the egg whites and whisk until smooth. The remaining egg whites will be folded in with a rubber spatula. You are now ready to pour the completed mixture into the refrigerated soufflé dish and place in the oven.

Preheat the over to 350 degrees. Combine chocolate and butter in a small pan and cook over low heat stirring constantly until smooth. Set aside and allow to cool. In a separate bowl whisk the sugar, flour, salt, eggs, and vanilla and beat
until smooth, after which you will mix in the melted chocolate mixture stirring until smooth. Pour the mixture into the pie shell and bake for 35 minutes or until the center is solid. The Fudge Pie is great served with a dollop of whipped cream. Add your own personal touch to taste with this decadent dessert such as adding pecans to the mixture.

Tips for hosting a new years party that shines Entertaining with family and friends is one part of the holiday season that we all look forward to. But holiday hosting can sometimes be harried. To keep you and your guests merry this season, consider hosting a wine party that shines. David Mirassou, wine expert and sixth generation of America’s oldest winemaking family, believes that food and wine enhance one another and are best shared with family and friends. His secret to hosting a stressfree soiree is planning for a creative, small-bite menu with wine pairings that highlight the flavors of each dish. “The wine you select should complement the food, look beautiful on the table and inspire toasts,” says Mirassou. “The right wine can add elegance to any holiday occasion and it can play an important role as both a gift and entertaining staple at celebrations throughout the season.” Here are a few wine entertaining and gift-giving tips to get you in the holiday spirit: * Offer small bites and festive fare. Prepare an assortment of appetizers and small plates for entertaining, allowing your guests more sampling opportunities and letting you out of the kitchen to mingle more.
* Create a cozy setting. Consider setting up food stations in your home to allow guests to congregate in different areas. Floor cushions around a coffee table and coasters on the mantle will encourage mingling. * Plan to offer your guests both a red wine and a white wine. A Chardonnay has wide appeal because it has fruitforward flavors to maximize food pairing options. A Pinot Noir also has great versatility in food and wine pairings. * How much wine should you serve? A general rule of thumb is to plan on about one glass of wine per person for each hour of the gathering. * Stretch your wine dollar. Now is the time to take advantage of price breaks for purchases of six or more bottles at many supermarket chains. For an event, the savings can really add up. * Personalize a gift from the vine. Not hosting this season? With very little effort, wine can be a gift with a personal touch. Embellish wine gift bags or boxes with festive ribbon and trim or add a custom neck tag by writing a note about the wine you are giving. Having trouble picking the right wine to give as a gift? Visit Mirassou.com to take their quiz and
see what’s right for you, along with some wine pairing ideas. You can also visit the site or Facebook.com/ MirassouWinery for more entertaining tips and recipe ideas. Try this Belgian Endive and Dried Cherry Quinoa Salad - an easy-toprepare recipe that is also festive in its presentation. Belgian Endive with Dried Cherry Quinoa Salad Prep time: 15 minutes Cook/stand time: 22 minutes Chill time: at least 1 hour Ingredients: Salad: 1 cup quinoa 1 1/2 cups vegetable stock or broth 1/2 cup dried cherries, chopped 1/4 cup snipped fresh chives 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted 24 Belgian endive spears Dressing: 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar 1 teaspoon stone ground mustard 1/4 teaspoon sea salt or to taste Freshly ground pepper to taste Directions: Rinse quinoa in a fine mesh sieve; drain well. Bring stock and quinoa to a boil in a small
saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork, then let cool. Whisk together all dressing ingredients and stir into quinoa with cherries, chives and thyme. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour. Stir in walnuts and spoon into endive spears. Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired. Makes 8 servings. Recipe tip: This light appetizer may be prepared one day ahead. Add walnuts and spoon into endive spears just before serving. Use a tri-color quinoa blend for extra color. Pairs best with Mirassou Sunset Red.
Your zzz’s count this holiday season, so start counting them Between squeezing extra activities into your schedule, finding time to bake holiday treats for your children’s classrooms and organizing a mini family reunion, the holiday season might be causing you a bit of stress. And if that stress is affecting your sleep, you could be caught up in the vicious cycle of exhaustion causing stress and stress causing more exhaustion. Creating a personal sleep sanctuary will help you meet your needs for rest and rejuvenation and give you plenty of opportunity to count your zzz’s and not lie awake wishing for sleep. By improving your quality and quantity of sleep, you are able to better handle all the stresses of the holiday season, and instead share in the fun activities at this time of year. “A lack of sleep negatively impacts our mood and outlook, as well as our physical health,” says Terry Cralle, a registered nurse and certified clinical sleep educator. “Sufficient sleep, a good diet and regular exercise are the three ingredients to staying healthy all season long.” You may be surprised at how many people experience issues sleeping. The Better Sleep Council reports that 66 percent of people 18 to 34 claim that they have trouble falling and staying asleep. That number drops to 53 percent of people ages 35 to 54, Page 22
and just less than half of people 55 and older. If you fall into the portion of the population experiencing sleep troubles, consider these tips from the Better Sleep Council: * Build a good sleep environment - A good sleep environment is imperative when it comes to counting zzz’s each night. Start off with a quality mattress. “A mattress is an investment, not only financially but for your health,” says Karin Mahoney, director of communications for the Better Sleep Council. “To help improve your sleep - and your quality of life - it’s a good idea to compare the mattress you are sleeping on to new models every five years and to consider replacing your mattress if it is more than seven years old.” * Sleep in your ideal bedroom Light, noise and even temperature can disrupt sleep or make it difficult to fall asleep. Purchase light-blocking shades and install them in windows to keep the sun, streetlights and passing car headlights from shining in. Consider finding a source of white noise - such as a fan or sound machine producing soft ocean sounds - to cover up other noises happening in the house like the heater kicking in, or someone getting up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. Finally, you should consider turning the temperature in the bedroom
The Coto de Caza News
down a degree or two - or getting it as close as possible to the ideal bedroom temperature of 65 F. A cooler temperature can help the body relax and fall into sleep much more easily. * Count your sleep - not sheep Track your sleep using a sleep app. Several apps reviewed by the Better Sleep Council provide users with a variety of benefits. For example, some are designed to monitor your breathing and movements, and they encourage you to wake up when you’re in the lightest stage of the sleep cycle. Others can record your
snoring and breathing habits to help determine if you are experiencing any distractions mid-slumber. Catching the right number of -zzz’s can lead to better health and more energy this holiday season, helping to reduce your stress level. Make good sleeping habits and creating a sleep environment a priority, so you can wake up feeling refreshed every morning.

American New Years Traditions Explained By Tracy DeLuca New Year’s is a time to celebrate the end of the past year and welcome a new year. It is a time to reflect on the past and plan for the future. The parties and traditions surrounding this time are many and varied. But where do they come from? Who started them and why? New Year ’s Eve has specific traditions and celebrations as does New Year’s Day. Here are some specific traditions from America and where they come from. Auld Lang Syne - A traditional Scottish song that was first published in 1796, Auld Lang Syne is the most popular song that no one knows the words to! Guy Lombardo played the song on New Year’s Eve in 1929 and it has become a tradition ever since. The song celebrates the remembrance of old friends. Kissing At Midnight - On New Year’s Eve at the stroke of Midnight, everyone kisses. Even if you do not have someone to kiss, you wish you were kissing. This is more than just a celebration, it is a tradition with a base. It is generally believed that whatever you are doing when New Year’s day arrives is what you will be doing for the rest of the year. So, kissing your loved ones is just assuring yourself that you will be doing more of that over the coming year. Noisemakers - Trumpet like noisemakers, loud yells of “hooray!” and blaring music are traditional at Midnight. All of that noise is not just joy at the change in seasons, it has a basis in ancient beliefs as well. When gas and electric lights f i r s t b e c a m e u s e d p o p u l a r y, it became a tradition to turn on all of your lights and go to the church at Midnight on New Year’s Eve to hear the bells ringing. People began taking more noisemakers and hollering to make noise as well. This tradition originated from a belief that evil spirits would be scared away by the noise. Over the years, this morphed into the loud noisemaking that is so popular at Midnight on New Year’s Eve. Fireworks - A close partner to the noisemaking at Midnight is the numerous fireworks displays and the blowing up of firecrackers on New Year ’s. This goes hand in hand with the belief that loud noises frighten away evil spirits. The Chinese, of course,
are credited with inventing fireworks. Fireworks are also believed to draw good luck. Making Toasts - In ancient England, the saxons used a Wassail bowl filled with alcoholic beverages. A large cup might be passed around with a piece if hard bread in the bottom. Everyone drank from the cup and yelled out good wishes. Then, the host would eat the bread from the bottom of the cup. This is where the traditional “toasting” came from. Now, we make toasts honoring people and wishing good luck and a prosperous New Year. The Ball Dropping - The best known tradition and largest celebration in America is the New Year’s celebration in Times Square in New York City where “the ball drops”. This tradition started in 1907 and is the most widely viewed, and attended, celebration on New Year’s Eve. The ball dropping signifies the end of the old and the beginning of the new. The countdown and drop derive from a time signal used in naval harbors at noontime. Father Time and the New Years Baby - Many New Year’s decorations feature Father Time and the New Year’s Baby. The old year is represented by Father Time, a bearded old man with a walking stick, who carries an hour glass to symbolize the movement of time. Father Time has roots in the Greek god Chronos, as well as the Grim Reaper. The new year’s baby traces its ancestry to the ancient Greeks and Egyptians, who regarded the baby as a symbol of rebirth. The image of a baby with a New Year banner was brought to America by Germans immigrants. So, the old year hands over it’s responsibility to the new year, a time of rebirth and new chances. New Year ’s Resolutions - It is generally believed that the ancient Babylonians were the first people to make resolutions on New Year’s. Early Christians believed that the first day of the new year should be spent reflecting on your past actions and resolving to improve oneself in the coming year. From this has grown the tradition of making New Year’s resolutions. The tradition of breaking them is probably just as old! Tournament of Roses Parade - One of my personal favorite
traditions for New Year’s day is to watch the Pasadena, California Tournament of Roses Parade on television. The parade first started in 1886 when members of the Valley Hunt Club decorated their carriages with flowers for a parade celebrating the ripening of the orange crop. Now, we watch the parade and marvel at the beautiful floats covered in thousands and thousands of flowers. The Rose Bowl football game that follows the parade is another tradition. Eating Black Eyed Peas - In the southern part of the US, a major tradition is eating Black Eyed peas on New Year’s day. S u p p o s e d l y, d u r i n g the Ci vi l Wa r, b l a c k e y e d p e a s w e r e “cow peas” used for feeding cattle. But, during the Battle
of Vicksburg, the town was cut off from all food supplies for 40 days. The people survived by eating the “cow peas” that the enemy troops had left behind. Since that time, they have been regarded as bringing good luck to those who eat them. They are usually paired with greens which are a symbol for wealth. And there they are, some of the most famous traditions of New Year’s in America. Hopefully, you have some idea as to why we do the things we do on New Year’s Eve and Day now. So, kiss someone you love, make a toast, make some resolutions and eat some black eyed peas this year!

Five simple ways to find deeper meaning in everyday life Turbulent, fast-paced, chaotic - the modern world is increasingly hectic. From this oft-crazy environment, a new movement is emerging where people are pausing to find deeper meaning in everyday life. Selfempowerment and true emotional connections can counterbalance daily stress and uncertainty, providing happiness and a genuine sense of worth. If you find the days seem to slip away and life’s hurried pace to be draining, it’s time to find some simple ways to add meaning to your life. Here are five ideas for nurturing a deeper connection with yourself and others: 1. Reconnect with your passion Did you enjoy painting when you were younger? Have you always wanted to take a photography class? Do you love to travel? It’s important to recognize and nurture those activities you love most so that you’re able to go out and do what you’re great at in the world. New York-based yoga instructor, Tara Stiles has infused her passion and energy into her work as a yoga, meditation and wellness instructor. “Passion is really about going after what you want to achieve in your life,” says Stiles. Whether it’s cooking, writing or gardening, make time for what you enjoy doing, rather
than just doing what you have to. Even one hour a week dedicated to your passion will make you feel more centered and grounded. 2. Express your individuality Individual beliefs and values make us each unique, and you can express those ideals through your fashion and jewelry choices. For example, the new Pandora Essence Collection is more than just a beautiful bracelet. You can select from 24 hand finished charms, each representing inner-values like faith, love, courage, confidence and wisdom. Each charm slides effortlessly into position on a slender silver bracelet, thanks to three silicone grip stoppers inside each charm. Whether for yourself or a gift for a loved one, the bracelet is the perfect reminder of what’s really important in life. 3. Give back Volunteering in your community is a great way to connect with others and find deeper meaning in the everyday. Leila Janah, a social entrepreneur based in San Francisco, traveled to West Africa at the age of 17, and volunteered in a school for blind children. The experience led her to found Samasource, a nonprofit organization that helps individuals living in poverty. Janah recalls that “[Volunteering in West
Africa] was a time of incredible personal growth and it set me on the path to do what I do.” Whether you choose to help stock a local food shelf, supervise at your children’s school or travel abroad to help build houses for the poor, volunteering is sure to make you feel more connected with the world around you. 4. Find “me time” Modern life can be very busy with every hour in every day dedicated to some activity. This can take its toll on your body, so it’s important to remember to take care of yourself, even if you’re taking care of others. Find your own way to relax and rejuvenate. This may be spending a few minutes each day balancing the mind and body through stretching and meditation. It might be taking a quiet walk, reading a book or having a cup of tea while journaling. Whatever you prefer, make sure to take “me time” throughout the day. 5. Be an ambassador for your beliefs What truly ignites your soul? It may be your passion for green living,
healthy eating or your faith. Whatever your beliefs, it’s important to show the world who you are and what you believe in. Penelope Jagessar Chaffer, an award-winning filmmaker, shares her beliefs and connects with others through her work. “I’m always trying to find that common thread between myself and someone else when I’m interviewing them,” Chaffer says. “I find that love, and talking about love, is this thing we can use to help connect us.” Talk about your beliefs and values with others; you might be surprised by what you find. Rather than getting swept away in a hectic schedule, try focusing on what truly matters to you. These simple ways to add meaning to your life will help you reconnect with yourself and with those around you.
Celebrate the season with a new beauty routine For most places, winter undoubtedly means chilly temperatures, less sunlight and - inevitably - dry, tight or flaky skin. This season, follow these easy tips to break the cycle of dull winter skin by revamping beauty routines that will ensure radiant skin is always in the forecast. The Simple brand, a range of facial skincare products that is perfect even for sensitive skin, launched the Simple Advisory Board (SAB) to help women everywhere discover the benefits of a holistic approach to skincare. The SAB is a group of noted lifestyle and wellness experts who offer tips to help women care for their skin from the inside out. Boardmember and celebrity make-up artist, Gita Bass offers up her favorite tips to achieve gorgeous, glowing skin all winter long. Meet your new best friend: moisturizer The first (and most important) step in keeping skin dewy and fresh in the dead of winter is to keep it hydrated by using a moisturizer that contains SPF. Use Simple Light Moisturizer with SPF 15 to instantly double skin’s hydration while protecting from the
sun’s ever-present rays. Moisturized skin will also help foundation spread evenly over skin and help make-up last all day. Hey there, bright eyes To combat winter gloom, add an unexpected splash of color to lash lines. Gita recommends pairing a colorful liner with voluminous lashes to make eyes pop. Not only is this ontrend this season, but this easy step is sure to brighten up any occasion. The art of the sultry, smoky eye Winter is a busy season filled with holiday gatherings, office parties and New Year’s Eve bashes - a well-done smoky eye is the perfect look for any of these occasions. Update the look by incorporating a deep violet or plum-colored eye shadow. Swipe a light, shimmery base color over the lids to brow bone and blend in the darker shade from the lash line to eyelid crease for ultimate drama. Kiss the winter blues away Contrasting, deep lip hues are fast becoming a red-carpet favorite that is easy to replicate at home. Find a wine color that matches the skin tone to take the look from day-to-night. Prepping lips with a matching liner
ensures staying power and definition. Ensure a clean canvas for tomorrow Once the festivities are over, be sure to unwind and remove makeup. Simple Eye Make-Up Remover Pads are a great way to effectively remove eye make-up without leaving a greasy residue. Focusing on different lifestyle choices that impact skin - such as diet, fitness and stress management - can improve skin health and overall
wellbeing. Women can embody the holistic approach to skincare by adhering to the Simple philosophy which is what is left out is just as important as what is put in when it comes to gentle, yet effective skincare. All products contain no dyes, artificial perfumes or harsh chemicals that can upset skin and contain skin-loving ingredients and added vitamins natural, healthylooking skin.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. 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. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the file number assigned to this case 13-3457-11. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. 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. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 010379-CA.
