3 expert tips for starting a s u c c e s s f u l v e g e t a bl e g a r d e n Warm weather begs green thumbs across the country to break out their gardening gloves and till the soil for the season’s plantings. Whether this is your first year tending a home garden or it’s something you’ve been doing for decades, gardening offers many rewards, including time spent outdoors, the ability to feel closer to Mother Nature, and of course, the fresh fare plucked just steps from your kitchen. Anyone can have a successful home garden no matter where they live by following a few steps from professional gardeners. Consider these three important tips for starting your garden right so you can enjoy fresh produce faster, thanks to the experts at Outdoor Essentials makers of garden beds, compost bins and other gardening necessities. Step 1: Research appropriate early plantings Springtime is ideal garden time thanks to milder weather, and a good place to start is by researching proper plants for your region’s early season. If you have questions, consult your local nursery or call your local extension office for specialized advice. In general, good early plantings include brassicas, a family of plants that includes kale, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and cabbages. Additional cool-season crops to consider include radishes, beets, peas, potatoes and carrots. These plants will thrive early in the season and produce yields quickly. In addition to quick-producing plants, the early season is the best time to plant other varieties that take a long time to mature. Onions, for example, require a lengthy growing season and should be planted early so that in late summer, gardeners can enjoy the maximum yield possible. Want produce quicker? Consider
purchasing starter plants, also called plant starts, rather than relying on packets of seeds. These are the small plants that have already germinated and have a basic root system. These are easy to transfer to your own garden and, with proper tending, will grow quickly and produce fruit faster. Step 2: Prepare garden spaces for accelerated growth After months of not being used, your garden’s soil is likely compact and will require some tilling to loosen the dirt and encourage plant growth. You can do this with a garden rake; for large gardens, some people prefer to rent a power tiller. People who live in smaller homes, a townhouse or condo might prefer to use raised garden beds. Stylish and functional, raised garden planters from Outdoor Essentials eliminate the need to bend over to tend garden, a benefit that has made them vastly popular. Raised garden beds can be used virtually anywhere outdoors, including on a deck or patio, and they can be moved, too, if necessary. Whether you create a garden plot in your yard or add a few raisedgarden planters to your patio, make sure the dirt is nutrient-rich and ready for your plants. Typically it’s wise to mix black dirt in with your soil to ensure that plants grow strong. If you’ve had trouble growing in the past, consider getting your soil tested
to verify pH levels. Step 3: Tend daily and enjoy the fruits of your labor For best results, tend your garden on a daily basis. Check for soil moisture and water as necessary. Make sure to pluck weeds and watch for pest infestations. If done daily, it should only take a few minutes to verify the health of your garden, plus it’s fun to watch plants grow and flower. As fruit and vegetables mature, it’s time to enjoy the season’s first harvest. The healthy fresh fare tastes even better knowing you grew it yourself, plus it cuts down on grocery bills. If you find you have too much of one type of produce at once, share with neighbors, coworkers and friends - everyone loves fresh garden delights. Keep in mind that as plants grow, you need to make sure they don’t overcrowd each other. This can limit growth and yield production. If your garden starts to look overgrown, you may need to pluck out a few plants to open up space and encourage proper growth and healthy root systems. Spring to it! The mild, moist weather and longer days of the early gardening season make the conditions ideal for plant growth. With a few simple steps and a watchful eye, you’ll be enjoying fresh produce at almost every meal. -(BPT)

3 Ways Pups Can Improve Seniors’ Health
Furry friends can play a significant role in pet owners’ lives. The old saying goes, “dogs are man’s best friend,” and research shows they may be more than that. In fact, they just might be the key to keeping seniors active. According to a study conducted by the University of Lincoln and Glasgow Caledonian University in collaboration with Mars Petcare Waltham Centre for Pet Nutrition, dog owners 65 and older were found to walk over 20 minutes more a day than seniors who did not have canine companions at home. The study documented three key conclusions: Dog owners walked further and for longer than non-dog owners. Dog owners were more likely to reach recommended activity levels. Dog owners had fewer periods of sitting down. “Older adult dog owners are more active than those without dogs and are also more likely to meet government recommendations for daily physical activity,” said Nancy Gee, human animal interaction researcher at Waltham. “We are learning more every day about the important roles pets play in our lives, so it’s no surprise that pets are now in more than 84 million households. It’s great to recognize how pets can help improve seniors’ lives.” Walking with your pup can help both the pet and owner get in shape. Pets can keep older adults active and even help them meet the recommended public health guidelines for weekly physical activity. According to the study, on average, dog owners more often participated in 30 minutes a day of
moderate physical activity and achieved 2,760 additional steps. However, the benefits of pet ownership go beyond physical activity. It’s no secret that pets provide companionship. From reducing rates of stress, depression and feelings of social isolation, pets can play a significant role in improving people’s lives, which ultimately can make pet owners happier and healthier. Not only do pets serve as companions in their own right, studies have shown that dog owners can get to know their neighbors through their pets. Pets can even help facilitate the initial meeting and
conversation, which may come as no surprise for many dog owners who have chatted with others while walking their dogs. For older adults who live alone or in a group facility, having a pet is also a great way to build relationships with others. As senior citizens are celebrated on upcoming days that acknowledge older adults, it turns out living with a pet can be a healthy choice for seniors in more ways than one.

Coto Equestrian Preserves Newest Little Gems Miniature Horses Captivate Coto de Caza Community By: Karean Levi Chapman Among 40 mini horses brought into the Auction Yard in Texas, November 2017, one stood out amongst them all and captured the heart of Tobi Coate. Tobi is a resident of Coto de Caza and found her little gem on Facebook after a friend tagged her in a post on the Auction Yard page. Tobi knew she had to rescue and save at least one of these precious, mini horses, but which one would she choose? Looking through all the photos and underneath the dirty, ungroomed, scruffy coats, Tobi found one that she felt was in need of her love the most. A cute little palomino colored mini she’d name, “Pearl.” Pearl’s journey to the Coto Equestrian Preserve from Texas was not an easy one. It took about three weeks to have Pearl hauled over and when she arrived her coat was in desperate need of some clipping and grooming. Tobi put Pearl on a diet and gave her a few days to settle in before tackling the job of getting her washed, clipped and groomed. Tobi soon thought to herself that perhaps Pearl was not overweight but pregnant. She called her Veterinarian to come check Pearl and, without a doubt, Pearl was pregnant. They didn’t know how far along the baby was so it became a guessing game to when she’d foal. March 19th, 2018 at 11:25 AM, Pearl gave birth to a beautiful tiny foal that resembled her momma remarkably. A tiny, palomino filly of a mini whom has stolen the hearts of everyone at the barn. Due to this joyful occurrence, the Coto Equestrian Preserve gained two precious gems: Pearl and her baby, Diamond. In speaking with Tobi, she remarked, “Since Diamond’s birth, she has been the talk of the town and has had so many visitors.” Karean and Shayna Chapman received a special treat when visiting Pearl and Diamond and said, “It was a bucket list item to get to cuddle with Diamond and her mama Pearl. Diamond gave us so many kisses. Both mama and baby were gentle and incredibly friendly. Tobi’s story warmed our hearts and
made us wish we could adopt sweet little mini horses one day.” All the children at the barn are over the moon about the pair. Even Fabio, ESI Training Stables’ new mascot Rooster, seems to have taken a liking to the mini’s as well. Pearl’s arrival has shown and taught the children how a once neglected rescue mini horse can blossom into a beautiful, healthy, shiny and vibrant mini horse. Some had the incredible and magical experience of witnessing the birth of Pearl’s foal and how a mare takes Pearl and Diamond enjoying the grass and sunsine. care of her baby. Soon after Diamond was born, she began showing off her natural instincts of standing on her own four hooves and nuzzled her momma Pearl for milk. It only took a short time before Diamond was dashing around her stall, throwing tiny bucks and jumping about in excitement of her new surroundings outside her momma’s belly. Diamond will stay with her momma for a few months until she is old enough to separate from Pearl. She will then begin eating grass and grain instead of milk, as well as Coto Equestrian Preserve kids welcoming baby Diamond. become more independent. Everyone at the barn is enjoying Pearl and Diamonds gentle nature and friendly disposition. This is a very common trait in miniature horses and why they make such wonderful therapy animals. Mini horses seem to enjoy the company of humans. Cuddling and petting Pearl and Diamond is irresistible. Diamond is as curious about her visitors as her visitors are about her. She will often give affection and kisses right back making it hard Tobi cuddling with her new surprise foal, Diamond with momma Pearl to resist picking her up for a big hug close by. and kiss back. Their small size make them much easier to handle then the full sized horses at the barn. It’s no secret that Pearl and Diamond are part of the Coto Equestrian Preserve’s family. Pearl and Diamond continue to charm everyone at the barn providing both the children and adult riders, as well as visitors a unique, special, fun and satisfying experience that stays in their hearts even when it’s time to leave. They may be small but they leave a large imprint on our lives forever. Pearl gives birth to her new baby Diamond’s first bath foal, “Diamond” The Coto de Caza News

OCSA Celebrates HULLABALOO BY THE BAYOU; Raises $2 Million Adrienne Brandes and RJ Brandes Photos by: Yunuen Bonaparte More than 600 guests stood in roaring applause to celebrate a thrilling evening of captivating performances and extraordinary generosity that led Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) to raise more than $2 million in support of its tuition-free arts and academic programs. For OCSA’s Gala 2018 “Big Time in the Big Easy,” Hotel Irvine was transformed into the enchanting city of New Orleans as ladies and gentlemen were entertained by jazz artistry, fine French Creole cuisine, indulgent live and silent auctions, and a three-act production staged by more than 200 of OCSA’s talented students. Co-chaired by Lisa Argyros and John Massa and Devon and Kevin Martin, the black-tie affair far surpassed its fundraising goal, raising a net of $1.6 million. Unique to OCSA’s Gala, the costs associated also include the elaborate performance, which provides students from all 14 arts conservatories with real-world experience and professional mentorship. “OCSA’s Gala truly gives its students the opportunity to shine, not only in the awe-inspiring performances by singers, dancers and musicians onstage, but also as gracious greeters, stage managers and crew, visual artists and culinary support,” said Devon Martin. Much like voodoo queen Marie Laveau, “Big Time in the Big Easy” cast a spell on Gala attendees, bewitching them with a mesmerizing experience Brianna and Teren Shaffer from beginning to end. As soon as guests arrived, they were delighted by OCSA students, who acted as entertaining street performers. Artists sketched and painted their masterpieces, writers created thought-provoking poetry and improvisational dancers tapped their feet to the sounds of rollicking jazz music. Guests were handed delicious peach cocktails and tray-passed hors d’oeuvres as they strolled up the purple carpet to the French Quarter Pavilion tent, where they placed their bids on an extraordinary selection of silent and “Almost Live!” auction items. A second-line parade then led them through an ornate floral iron gate into the Grand Ballroom, where dinner was served under market lights. Producer’s Circle ($30,000) tables were adorned in apple green velvet brocade linens with golden lantern and orchid centerpieces and surrounded by gold infinity chairs backed with extravagant royal purple cloth flowers. During Act I, guests enjoyed a Louisiana crab salad with okra, and a mizuna, poblano and corn relish, herb-crusted filet mignon, Cajun-blackened redfish served with a blue cheese and sweet potato gratin, asparagus, andouille-roasted corn and sauce ravigote. Dessert featured a chocolate banana cream pie and family-style beignets with caramel rum sauce. An exciting live auction raised a total of $94,000. The “P!NK VIP Concert Experience” donated by Farmers & Merchants Bank went to Tristy Patterson and Eric Choi. “Greetings from NOLA,” donated by the Emeril Lagasse Sherry and Ralph Opacic Foundation, Pacific Hospitality Group, and the New Orleans Center for the Arts will be enjoyed by Martha Duque and Nimesh Davé. The “Paradise in the Pacific” trip to Maui generated such interest that Montage Hotels & Resorts offered to provide two six-night packages, which were taken home by Julie and Doug Garn; and Kathi and Steve Wagner, Cynthia and Martin Howard and Vicki Foley and Tom Brennan. Suzi Lyons won her choice from a collection of five exquisite jewelry pieces by Twila True Fine Jewelry as part of the opportunity drawing that raised $11,200. An inspiring video, a testimonial by OCSA alumnus Lorenzo RangelSantos, and a moving speech from Dr. Mohamed El-Erian about the importance of education, diversity and opportunity for all students. When his challenge match of $300,000 was announced, paddles flew up in support of the Artist Scholar Sponsorship Program, which helps to provide financial assistance to students’ families who live below the national poverty level. The generosity soared to another level when Julia Argyros and Honorary Gala Co-Chair Lisa Argyros stood and surprised the crowd with a $500,000 gift from the Argryos Family Foundation. “As the students were singing ‘What a Wonderful World,’ all I could think about was the fact that these kids - our OCSA kids – are the future,” said Founder and Executive Director Ralph Opacic, Ed.D. “They can and will change the world.

Exciting Event at Tutto Fresco to provide Support for Children’s Cerebral Palsy on Saturday April 28 A Child’s Dream. A Mother’s Love. Life Change Awaits…Doing Good Never Tasted So Good!
Dan Johns, Maddie Fragner & Steve White By Michael Ashley 1 in 323 children are born with Cerebral Palsy, a motor disability that impairs muscle movement, muscle control, and motor function. Despite such prevalence, there is no known cure and innovations for improving care have stalled due to the little dedicated federal funding for public research and rehabilitation. Debbie Fragner, mother of Maddie, an elevenyear-old-girl diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy, is fighting to change the status quo with her nonprofit organization, Children’s Cerebral Palsy Movement. On Saturday, April 28th, they will collaborate with RSM’s Tutto Fresco for “A Recipe for Caring” to raise funds for innovative, community-based programs to address the quality of life and long-term functioning of CP children and their families. Events like “A Recipe for Caring” are so critical to the CP community. The fact is, the undue stress involved in raising a child with CP leads to divorce rates above 90%. It’s no wonder why. Medical costs alone for children with CP are nearly ten times higher than the cost of caring for a child without a disability, and yet most CP households have single wage earners. Such events help families like Fragner’s who carry such a heavy financial and personal burden. She reminds us that when we help children with Cerebral Palsy in the race for a better future, we all win. “The people who’ve contributed see the smiles; they see the children experiencing joy and a higher quality of life that leads to brighter futures. They know they’ve made a difference.” By partnering with organizations such as Tutto Fresco, Fragner hopes

to further challenge expectations of children with CP. Interestingly, the first person to change Fragner’s expectations was her own daughter. Passionate about pursuing a “fun, normal” life, Maddie told her mother she wanted to try ballet. Inspired, Fragner conducted a pilot study addressing the correlation between CP symptom improvement when applying classical ballet technique and physical therapy in the presence of live music. Children in the study showed significant improvements. Combined with access to other therapies like therapeutic horseback riding, Maddie was soon able to walk independently for short distances. Unfortunately, the medical community has still been hesitant to accept new treatment forms. Fragner experienced this firsthand when taking Maddie to an orthopedic surgeon who predicted her “exercise as medicine” approach would prove unsuccessful. Undaunted, the Fragners forged ahead, trying innovative treatments and programs, including Ability Ballet, dedicated to helping children with CP learn to dance while improving the quality of their movements. Over time, the surgeon had to acknowledge Maddie’s improvement. “He said he watched the thorough research behind every decision I made, and the success it yielded in Maddie’s life,” Fragner says. “And all of that transformed the way he practiced medicine and how he intended to treat every family with Cerebral Palsy going forward.” Just as Fragner’s own daughter transformed her expectations of what is possible with CP, Fragner strives to challenge the expectations of the

medical and therapeutic community. However, funding new therapeutic programming can be quite costly. Events, like the upcoming “A Recipe for Caring” at Tutto Fresco, have proven to be crucial for CP families. Not only do they raise funds for important therapeutic programming, education, and support groups, they connect families in similar situations. “At the heart of this organization is that we just really want to form a community of families with Cerebral Palsy,” Fragner explains. “We want to help bring these families out of isolation and into community. We want to love and support each other.” Fragner believes to build this type of community, we must educate the whole child—cognitively, socially, and emotionally—and their caregivers. To accomplish this, she is initiating a Cerebral Palsy-focused tutoring program and other gender-neutral therapeutic programming, like Ability Ballet. Among other improvements, each provides CP children the ability to learn and develop social skills, culminating in increased selfconfidence, resilience, and emotional management. When it comes to supporting the caregivers in this endeavor, Fragner is developing face-to-face and online resources as well as professionally facilitated support groups. Topics will include Whole Body Approach to Healing, Nutrition, Caring for the Caregiver, and Ways to Successfully Interface with the School System. To ensure she is meeting the demands of CP families, Fragner intends to continue to survey the needs of the community, identify helpful professionals, and to raise awareness
through events like “A Recipe for Caring.” The funds raised will help underwrite many supportive community programs while boosting awareness. Attendees can expect to enjoy an afternoon of authentic Italian food, a silent auction, access to influential business leaders, and the opportunity to discover firsthand the difference one can make. Fragner and Tutto Fresco are particularly excited about the silent auction selections, which shall include a personal tour of General William Lyon’s Private Classic Auto Museum, exclusive chef-led dinner parties at both Tutto Fresco and True Foods, a plethora of fine wine options and many other unique experiences to indulge one’s senses. Ultimately, whether it’s helping a child with Cerebral Palsy achieve a new physical milestone, achieve greater academic success, make a new friend, break through a finish line, pair with a community partner, or teach an eager student how to do pliés, Fragner knows her organization can enact change. But it all starts with the children, the parents, community leaders, and finally, the medical and therapeutic professionals. By changing the expectations of communities, more and more families can benefit from alternative treatment options. Children with CP can realize their full potential, surpassing expectations by walking, running, dancing, and experiencing a higher quality of life. As Fragner says, “When we invest in children that have Cerebral Palsy, we all succeed.” This fundraiser will occur Saturday, April 28 at Tutto Fresco (22332 El Paseo, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA).

Smart ways to boost your home’s energy efficiency
You wouldn’t know it with the mild weather we’re having this winter, but spring is fast approaching. Building industry experts say now is an ideal time to carefully consider and prioritize home renovation plans. Most homeowners will opt to address the cosmetic features of a home when completing a renovation project to add comfort and value. However, it’s often what you can’t see that can have the biggest impact. Before diving into any home renovations, consider the “skeleton” of your home, known as the building envelope, rather than just the cosmetic features such as chrome fixtures or granite countertops. For instance, high efficiency windows are an excellent investment for any home renovation to help drive down excessive energy waste and high utility costs. The U.S. Department of Energy suggests that traditional windows contribute to as much as 10 percent of the total amount of air escaping from a typical home, while improperly sealed doors can contribute a further 11 percent. Another easy renovation idea to consider is researching and selecting high efficiency, green materials in commonly used rooms, such as bathrooms. Low flush water systems, solar hot water systems and even small-scale geothermal energy systems, as well as Energy Star-rated appliances, can reduce energy consumption and your overall carbon footprint while maintaining a comfortable, enjoyable living space for you and your family. Investing in an effective insulation solution also can make a noticeable impact on reducing household utility costs. Building experts suggest that homeowners completing a home renovation
should be as involved as possible in determining the best insulation type for their home. This means that homeowners should actively research the types of materials available and how well they perform over the long term. Spray foam insulation, available from Icynene, is growing in popularity among homeowners since it is an energy-efficient insulation material that delivers year-round benefits. Spray foam insulation works well in all types of homes across the country, regardless of climate, to curb air loss and retain
the conditioned air within your home to maintain a consistent, even temperature. Spray foam insulation performs for the life of the property, ensuring that homeowners can enjoy comfortable indoor temperatures all year round without overrunning their heating and cooling equipment and accumulating high heating and cooling costs every month. More information on the effectiveness of spray foam insulation is available online at www.icynene.com. -(BPT)
3 expert tips for starting a successful vegetable garden Warm weather begs green thumbs across the country to break out their gardening gloves and till the soil for the season’s plantings. Whether this is your first year tending a home garden or it’s something you’ve been doing for decades, gardening offers many rewards, including time spent outdoors, the ability to feel closer to Mother Nature, and of course, the fresh fare plucked just steps from your kitchen. Anyone can have a successful home garden no matter where they live by following a few steps from professional gardeners. Consider these three important tips for starting your garden right so you can enjoy fresh produce faster, thanks to the experts at Outdoor Essentials makers of garden beds, compost bins and other gardening necessities. Step 1: Research appropriate early plantings Springtime is ideal garden time thanks to milder weather, and a good place to start is by researching proper plants for your region’s early season. If you have questions, consult your local nursery or call your local extension office for specialized advice. In general, good early plantings include brassicas, a family of plants that includes kale, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and cabbages. Additional cool-season
crops to consider include radishes, beets, peas, potatoes and carrots. These plants will thrive early in the season and produce yields quickly. In addition to quick-producing plants, the early season is the best time to plant other varieties that take a long time to mature. Onions, for example, require a lengthy growing season and should be planted early so that in late summer, gardeners can enjoy the maximum yield possible. Want produce quicker? Consider purchasing starter plants, also called plant starts, rather than relying on packets of seeds. These are the small plants that have already germinated and have a basic root system. These are easy to transfer to your own garden and, with proper tending, will grow quickly and produce fruit faster. Step 2: Prepare garden spaces for accelerated growth After months of not being used, your garden’s soil is likely compact and will require some tilling to loosen the dirt and encourage plant growth. You can do this with a garden rake; for large gardens, some people prefer to rent a power tiller. People who live in smaller homes, a townhouse or condo might prefer to use raised garden beds. Stylish and functional, raised garden planters from Outdoor Essentials eliminate the need to bend over to tend garden, a benefit that has made them vastly
popular. Raised garden beds can be used virtually anywhere outdoors, including on a deck or patio, and they can be moved, too, if necessary. Whether you create a garden plot in your yard or add a few raisedgarden planters to your patio, make sure the dirt is nutrient-rich and ready for your plants. Typically it’s wise to mix black dirt in with your soil to ensure that plants grow strong. If you’ve had trouble growing in the past, consider getting your soil tested to verify pH levels. Step 3: Tend daily and enjoy the fruits of your labor For best results, tend your garden on a daily basis. Check for soil moisture and water as necessary. Make sure to pluck weeds and watch for pest infestations. If done daily, it should only take a few minutes to verify the health of your garden, plus it’s fun to watch plants grow and flower.
As fruit and vegetables mature, it’s time to enjoy the season’s first harvest. The healthy fresh fare tastes even better knowing you grew it yourself, plus it cuts down on grocery bills. If you find you have too much of one type of produce at once, share with neighbors, coworkers and friends - everyone loves fresh garden delights. Keep in mind that as plants grow, you need to make sure they don’t overcrowd each other. This can limit growth and yield production. If your garden starts to look overgrown, you may need to pluck out a few plants to open up space and encourage proper growth and healthy root systems. Spring to it! The mild, moist weather and longer days of the early gardening season make the conditions ideal for plant growth. With a few simple steps and a watchful eye, you’ll be enjoying fresh produce at almost every meal. -(BPT)

tips to conquer your packing challenges while traveling Whether it’s business travel, family road tripping or a romantic getaway, exploring new places is exciting. You may be counting down the days until you leave, but if there’s one thing you dread, it’s packing. Deciding what earns a spot in your suitcase is hard enough, let alone figuring out how you can fit it all in. Do you look with envy at savvy jetsetters who seem to navigate airports with ease while only toting a small carry-on? It’s because years of travel experience has taught them some packing tricks that make the process simple. Now you can use these same strategies to pack with ease no matter how near or far you plan to travel. Select double-duty clothing items. Check the weather for your destination so you pack only items appropriate for the forecast. You won’t need that big sunhat if rain is coming. Want to take it one step further? Choose items that multitask. For example, a large scarf can be a stylish accessory and also be used as a blanket on the plane or at the beach. Pack toiletries strategically. If possible, only bring samples and travel sizes of items to save space. Then leave them behind at the end
of the trip to open up luggage space to bring home mementos. To avoid luggage spills and explosions, place toiletries in plastic bags or add plastic wrap to the tops before screwing on the cap. Choose time-saving tools. Air drying hair takes forever and hotel hair dyers are often slow and unreliable, so pack a lightweight, folding dryer like the Panasonic EHNA27-K Nanoe Compact Hair Dryer to streamline your beauty routine. The nanoe technology draws moisture from the air to create moisture-rich ions that penetrate each hair shaft and enhance hair’s smoothness and shine. Need more incentive? The unique Quick-Dry Nozzle is designed to dry hair faster, so you can spend less time getting ready and more time enjoying your vacation. Fold to prevent wrinkling. To prevent wrinkles on delicate items, try wrapping them around soft, bulky items. For example, wrap a silk blouse or cotton trousers around a sweater. Avoid folding clothing any more than necessary. In fact, many people use a rolling method for packing clothes to save space and prevent wrinkles.
Utilize odd-shaped items. Shoes take up a ton of luggage space, so strive to select no more than three pairs, and wear the heaviest or bulkiest pair while traveling. Place shoes along the sides or bottom to strengthen the bag and then stash items inside to maximize space (like socks, nylons and deodorant). Eliminate makeup mayhem. Only bring makeup essentials on a vacation and pack multi-use items such as a lipstick that can also be used as a blush. To prevent shadows
and pressed powders from cracking, place a pressed cotton pad between the powder and the lid. Grab a few plastic bags. One of the most versatile things you can bring on a trip is also one many people forget: resealable plastic bags. Whether you need a bag for bringing toys down to the pool, a place to put dirty clothes throughout your trip, or something to place that soggy swimsuit in before you check out of the hotel, plastic bags are your secret weapon. - (BPT)
Simple tips for recreating beautiful looks at home Whether you’re looking to enhance your daily beauty routine or for tips to add glam to your style for an upcoming special occasion, Hollywood’s red carpet is the best source for trends and inspiration. Fortunately, many of today’s hottest looks are easy to create at home. Celebrity makeup artist Matin Maulawizada has tips to help you recreate your favorite red carpet looks in less time than you’d think. 1. Get glowing with toner Celebrities always seem to have a special “glow” on the red carpet with dewy, fresh skin. This effect is intentional and it all starts with proper hydration. To achieve luminous skin, Matin starts by spraying the face with a toner or rose water to balance the skin. He likes to pair this glowing look with dramatic eyes and a soft pink lip. 2. Apply foundation Get flawless skin thanks to perfectly blended foundation. For better application, Matin’s quick tip is to always warm the foundation first. “To get a sheer wash of foundation, I warm the foundation up in my hands before evenly distributing it on the brush and then I wipe the excess off the back of my hand,” he says. “This helps it blend seamlessly into Page 24
the skin.” 3. Prime the lips Whether you’re going for a nude lip or a bold hue, oftentimes, all eyes are on the perfect pout. Before applying any product to the lips, it’s important to ensure they are prepped and smooth. Matin starts with ChapStick Total Hydration Conditioning Lip Scrub to gently exfoliate the lips and remove any dead skin cells. “I love this scrub because it is made from naturally sourced ingredients, including sugar crystals, maracuja and coconut oils, shea butter and vitamin E,” he says. “It leaves the lips soft and smooth and turns them into a perfect canvas for any other products I will apply.” 4. Swap lip liner for concealer Matin recommends shaping the lip line with concealer rather than a lip liner to add definition. Contouring around the lip creates a naturallooking full pout. The bonus is that it prevents any color from bleeding, just as a liner would. 5. Bring out your natural beauty Tinted lip balms are great for a beautiful, subtle lip. Matin’s go-to is ChapStick Total Hydration Moisture + Tint because it adds a hint of color to enhance the lips’ natural color, while providing moisturizing benefits

the lips need. It’s currently available in three shades - Rose Petal, Merlot and Coral Blush - so there is a tint for any occasion. “Tinted lip balms are perfect for creating a naturally beautiful lip look,” says Matin. “Not only do they provide alluring color to the lips, but it is also easy to maintain throughout the night.” 6. Use soft shades for a dramatic eye One of Matin’s favorite trends seen on this year’s red carpets is the pairing of a sheer lip and strong eye. This classic look is ideal for any age because it lets your true beauty shine while drawing the focus to the
eyes. Matin recommends using a lighter pencil to get started and then smudging with a brush. You can use a powder shadow to fill in space and add definition. “For a dramatic eye, start with softer shades until you get the hang of it,” he says. “Use beige, taupe or grey to get a smoky effect that adds depth and drama. With these simple tips, anyone can recreate popular trends and add some glam to their daily look. You may not be walking down a red carpet, but you’re sure to get noticed and feel beautiful.

7 easy tips to create the serene bedroom of your dreams As life gets busier, a bedroom becomes more than a sleeping space - it’s an escape to a calmer, more serene world that rests the mind as well as the body. To create your own in-house getaway, use these easy tips to “calm-ify” your bedroom and transform it into a more beautiful and restful retreat. Sink into some silence. Create white noise to block out sounds that disturb the solitude. Install a stylish ceiling fan with gently whirring blades to give the room a languid, tropical ambiance that will help you relax. Paint the room green. Studies show green has a calming effect when used as a main color for decorating. A recent homeowner study conducted by Sherwin-Williams found that more than 60 percent of homeowners would consider adding shades of green into their home, with more than half saying they would use it to paint an entire room. “The color green is symbolic of balance, nature, spring and rebirth,” says Sue Wadden, director of color marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “Because it has such positive connections in the mind, I especially like to see Gallery Green (SW 0015) used in spaces seeking balance and harmony, such as bedrooms.” Add fresh houseplants. Living things, like leafy or flowering plants, make a bedroom feel more down to earth. Visit your local garden center
and purchase a variety of houseplants, large or small, to freshen the air. Fluff up your bedding. Give your bed a fresh new look and feel. Buy yourself some soft, cool white sheets. Add a featherlike, comfortable bedspread or quilt, and top it with multiple pillows of all shapes and sizes for a well-rested night’s sleep. Lower the lighting. Adjusting the lighting can completely alter the atmosphere in a bedroom. Install a
light dimmer or add a programmable timer that turns lights off and on automatically, to help lull you to sleep, yet brighten the room when it’s time to get up. Treat yourself to new window treatments. Add to the easy-breezy feel of the room by purchasing fresh, flowing curtains or sleek new blinds that can be easily adjusted to block out the daylight. Simplify for serenity’s sake.
Eliminate clutter to keep it out of sight - and out of mind. Add cabinetry with built-in organization features like drawer inserts. Add more shelving in the closet. Use baskets and pottery to keep small items contained. Having everything in its place will help you feel free to relax in your beautiful new bedroom. -(BPT) Sherwin-Williams DIY Pulse Survey, Q1 2016.
Tech Transforms Dining Out Experience Satisfying a craving has become easier than ever with the growing menu of interactive tools available at restaurants. From ordering to entertaining to rewarding, these resources make it simple to enjoy visiting your favorite eateries. With technology transforming nearly every other aspect of life, it should come as no surprise that mobile and electronic tools, such as Outback Steakhouse’s new mobile app, are fast-growing restaurant trends. Other enhancements make it faster and more entertaining to dine away from home. To make the most of your next meal out, find out which of the following services your favorite restaurants is offering: Mobile apps. You use your smartphone for everything else, so why not at your favorite restaurant? Mobile apps give customers more control over their dining experience, allowing them to choose how and when they want to pay the bill, receive exclusive offers, join the wait list and check in. Using the new Outback Steakhouse mobile app, you can peruse the menu ahead of time and when the meal is done, there’s no need to wait for the bill; you can pay
right from your phone, split the check, add a tip and even securely store payment details for future visits. To learn more, visit outback.com/app. Call ahead seating. While you used to have to physically go to a restaurant and wait in line, you can now call ahead to find out the estimated wait time and put your party on the list for now or a later time, before walking out your door. Some restaurants even allow you to view the current wait times and join the list on their websites. Online ordering. When restaurants first began offering carry out menus, you had to physically go to the restaurant, place your order and wait while it was prepared. Today, you can either call your order in or with a few clicks, place your order online and have it delivered or ready for carry out at the time you choose. Some restaurants even allow you to save favorite orders for future use. Interactive table kiosks. This trend started with tableside games for simple entertainment while you waited for your order, but quickly evolved into much more. Now, not only can you pass the time playing games solo or with table mates, you can peruse the menu, place orders
and pay your bill all on your own schedule. Rewards programs. Whether you’re earning stamps or swiping a card, rewards programs can pay big for frequent customers. Basic approaches involve a punch or stamp card that accumulates toward a free menu item. More sophisticated programs let guests earn points toward free or discounted meals, offer exclusive discounts and engage patrons in special promotions. The Bloomin’ Brands’ Dine Rewards
program, coming this summer, will allow customers to earn up to 50 percent off their fourth visit to any one of its restaurants, including Outback Steakhouse. Through technology, restaurant service has evolved into an uberpersonal affair. Interacting with the special features available through your favorite restaurants lets you customize nearly every aspect of your culinary experience. Photo courtesy of Getty Images

OLIVE CREST AT-RISK CHILDREN AND FAMILIES RECEIVE GIFTS, FOOD, AND CARE DURING THE 2017 “BE THE MIRACLE” HOLIDAY CAMPAIGN
Christmas 2017 was a joy-filled holiday for 834 abused, neglected, and at-risk children and teens in Orange County. Olive Crest’s annual “Be the Miracle” gift drive was bigger than ever. Generous donors in the community contributed hundreds of gifts, food, and other necessities throughout November and December, ensuring a bright and cheerful Christmas for kids who may have never before received a present during the holidays! With childhoods shattered by abuse, many kids at Olive Crest have never grown up in joyful expectation of the holidays. Olive Crest wants to change that experience and create happy memories. On an annual basis, we enlist the local community’s support,” stated Tim Bauer, Executive Director of Development for Olive Crest Orange County. “Our “Be The Miracle” campaign ensures that each and every child’s wish does indeed come true! With most other children receiving gifts at home during the holidays, Olive Crest strives to allow the same experience for our kids. The invaluable smile on a child’s face reflects the purpose and warmth of the holiday spirit. Every contribution, no matter how large or small, will allow these children to experience happy memories, and will help remind them that they are truly valued, remembered, and special this holiday season,” Bauer continued. One little three-year old boy named Josh was especially grateful for a brand new pillow and bed this year. He had been used to sleeping on the floor, with a “pillow” he had made of dirty old batting stuffed into a plastic bag. While he also received toys and a bike among the donations, he cried tears of joy and excitement when he saw his new bed and cuddled up with a brand new pillow for the first time in his life! Many of the children Olive Crest
serves struggle to know what to wish for, as they haven’t even had basic essentials, let alone toys and things to entertain them. For Andre, an 11 year old who loves soccer, new cleats was the only thing he could think of to request; something he had never imagined he would possess. With only memories of abuse, constant moves, and dashed dreams, Olive Crest staff remarked “we could tell he wasn’t holding out much hope for the cleats.” But, when he received them along with other Christmas presents, he was so overjoyed that he wore them all day and wouldn’t take them off. Every day during the campaign, individuals, families, and companies were dropping off their contributions, packing the shelves of Olive Crest’s “Santa’s Workshop” to capacity. “These individuals are genuine Olive Crest heroes,” stated Kyle Houlton, Community Involvement Coordinator for Olive Crest Orange County. “To those who donated goods, funds, and helped receive and distribute donations to our kids and families, we are most grateful,” he continued. Donations this year included: Over 8,000 Christmas Gifts 27 Christmas Trees to help families decorate Over 1,100 stockings filled with goodies 265 Holiday Meals for families in need 13 fun-filled Christmas Parties for Olive Crest kids and families A Shopping Spree at H & M for group home youth A new Car for transporting transitional aged youth A new Chevrolet Truck to help deliver goods and donations And so much more! Hundreds of donors contributed to this community effort, with very special thanks to Tim Doddridge, Toyota of Huntington Beach, Orange
Theory Fitness, Applied Medical, Michael Sullivan and Associates, McKinley Elevator, RD Olson, and Oltman’s Construction. ABOUT OLIVE CREST Since 1973, Olive Crest has transformed the lives of over 100,000 abused, neglected, and at-risk children and their families.

School lunches are gold mines for recycling, reusing and replenishing
April 20, 2018
Coto de Caza News Legal Notices CITY OF RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA NOTICE INVITING BIDS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF
CITY HALL AND BELL TOWER REGIONAL COMMUNITY CENTER INTERIOR PAINTING AND STAINING AND SEAL EXTERIOR WOOD TRIMMING NOTICE is hereby given that sealed bids for the CIP PROJECT City Hall And Bell Tower Regional Community Center Interior Painting And Staining And Seal Exterior Wood Trimming, in the City of Rancho Santa Margarita will be received at the Office of the City Engineer of the City of Rancho Santa Margarita, 22112 El Paseo, Rancho Santa Margarita California, until 11:00 a.m. on Monday, May 7, 2018, at which time they will be publicly opened and read aloud. DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK: In general, the work is comprised of mobilization, best management practices, painting, staining, sealing, and other miscellaneous improvements as shown on the plans and as required to complete the work.
From an early age, children can roll up their sleeves and get involved in helping reduce the amount of trash they produce by participating in recycling programs. Across the country, children will celebrate Earth Day April 22 with science fairs and environmental educational seminars about the importance of recycling. When children start recycling early in life, they’re more likely to continue that behavior as they get older - and pass the practice on to their own kids. Recycling is a growing program in households, cities and schools across the country. In fact, Americans recycled 82 million tons of materials in 2009 - the most recent year for reported data, and that number keeps increasing, according to Keep America Beautiful. School programs are a great way to not only promote recycling in younger generations, but also to create a fundraiser for the schools. This year, as Earth Day approaches April 22, schools can organize aluminum can drives and participate in cashfor-schools programs based on recycling lunch packaging. One such program is The Recycle...Reuse... Replenish Earth Day Campaign which encourages school children to recycle their Entenmann’s Little Bites Pouches with TerraCycle, resulting in cash back to the school. In addition, here are some more recycling, reusing and replenishing tips, perfect for school children to promote every lunch day at the school. Recycle: * Know your numbers - Teach your children to look for numbers and recycling symbols on plastic containers to know which containers can be reused through a recycling program. * Sign up for cash back programs Sign up your school for the TerraCycle program - if it’s not already registered - and have your children recycle their
Little Bites pouches each lunch hour. Visit www.terracycle.com/en-US/ brigades.html to find a listing of other lunch items TerraCycle collects. Reuse: * Keep the container - Send your children to school with their daily sandwich packaged in a reusable container they can bring home and use again the next day. Let them decorate the container to make it a personal item to show off at lunch. * Craft material supplies - Before throwing anything away, teach your children to think about how the material might be reused in a crafting project. TerraCycle provides several do-it-yourself project ideas at www. terracycle.com/en-US/do-it-yourselfprojects.html. Replenish: * Have leftovers? - Set up a compost pile at home, and give your children a lesson in biodegradable foods. Ask them to bring leftovers that are biodegradable home in their sandwich container to add to the compost pile. * Grow new lunch materials - Give your children a small garden to plant and tend that contains their favorite vegetables. Show them how beneficial their lunch compost is for growing those plants they can eat at future lunches. Entenmann’s will be giving away weekly prizes, including Little Bites coupons home improvement gift cards for starting an Earth Day garden, and a $5,000 cash grand prize through a sweepstakes link at www.facebook.com/Entenmanns. Register your school now for a chance to win the prize and build a beautiful Earth Day garden. Help teach your children the importance of the three R’s: recycle, reuse and replenish. The earlier they start, the more likely they’ll be to participate the rest of their lives. - (BPT)

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.

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.

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. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. We are assisting the Association to collect a debt and any information we obtain will be used for that purpose whether received orally or in writing. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.
