Stay healthy this season with these tips.

You hear that? It’s a collective sigh of relief that warmer weather is finally here. No more heavy coats, biting winds and mounds of snow.

Yes, you’re thankful to leave all that behind, along with the holidays.

Because while it was great to see all your loved ones, the affect those get-togethers had on your waistline was less than flattering.

But thankfully, warmer weather is here and that means it’s time to toss off those extra layers from both your wardrobe and yourself so you can find a healthier you this season. To do so, add these five tips to your daily routine as soon as possible. * Find your starting point. Before you can improve your health, you first need to realize where you are starting from. Create your own health profile by seeing your doctor for your annual physical. Record your height, weight, blood pressure, cholesterol and other

important levels. Then monitor your numbers throughout the season to see how they improve. * Drink more water. Your body is made up of roughly 70 percent water and medical experts recommend you drink nine to 13 cups a day, depending on your height, weight and gender. If you want to avoid caffeinated or sugared beverages, look for a water that can help replenish your body with essential minerals, such as Good & Delish Electrolyte Water or the Good & Delish Iceland Spring Water, which is bottled at the source and imported from Iceland’s fresh glacial springs. Both can be found at Walgreens, and will quench your thirst while also giving your body the fuel it needs to power through the day. * Set realistic goals. Goal setting is an important part of any health initiative, but equally important is that the goals be realistic and reachable.

Whether you’re trying to lose weight,

lower your cholesterol or lessen your blood pressure, speak with your doctor to find your desired levels and what they think is a realistic timeframe to reach them. * Get some sleep. Your new busy warm weather lifestyle may make this one a challenge, but you should never sacrifice sleep for other activities. Sleeping eight hours a night is recommended and it’s also important you try to go to bed and get up at the same times whenever possible. The more you can stick to a set sleep schedule, the better your long-term health will be.

Warmer weather is seen as a time of rebirth and rejuvenation and that makes it the perfect opportunity for you to create the new you. Start with a plan and institute each of the tips above and that collective sigh of relief you heard at the start of the season will be a squeal of joy by season’s end. - (BPT)

I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love. ~Marilyn Monroe

Play Ball! Stadium Safety Tips…

“I love this time of year!

Baseball season is now officially here. Whether you’re going to a professional baseball game or to your local neighborhood field, keep your eye on the ball and make safety a priority so that your stadium experience is more like a home run than a strikeout says Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna.”

First Pitch – Sometimes your team may not be so hot, but the weather may be. Keep hydrated with water and other fluids especially if you’re sweating and/or your seats are in the sun.

Strike One – Whether it’s sunny or cloudy, there’s still the potential for sunburn. Don’t cry foul when you realize you’re getting burned.

Speaking of fouls, foul balls and broken bats have the potential to enter the seating areas and concourses. Be aware of what’s going on so that you can avoid being hit by bats or balls that fly your way.

Ball One – When a baseball is hit or thrown into the stands,

excitement ensues. Others will try to be the ‘all-star’ and want that ball. If it’s theirs be a good fielder and back off. If you’re sitting or standing near a railing don’t reach over the railing to attempt to catch the ball. It doesn’t take more than a second for an accident to happen while reaching for it.

Strike Two – Look at the stadium’s seating chart to see where your seats are located so you can get an idea of what kind of clothing to wear.

Dress in layers so that you can be comfortable no matter where you’re sitting. Bring a raincoat along if there’s a chance it could rain.

Foul Ball? – Remember, “You don’t always have to catch the ball.” What I mean here is, when someone throws you a negative comment, look or attitude, drop it. It’s out of play. Forget about it. Maintain a good attitude, be patient and maintain sportsmanship conduct at all times. We’ll all be Champs if you do so. Practice this on and off the field!

Red Skelton’s Horse Ranch for sale!

In the old days, many entertainers could do it all - singing, dancing, acting and comedy - such as Red Skelton.

With a career spanning more than 70 years, Red began working at the age of seven in order to help support his family. His father, a clown with the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus, had died before he was born leaving the family destitute. From selling newspapers and other odd jobs to eventual minstrel shows to a showboat, to stock theatre to burlesque and the circus where his father had performed as a clown, Skelton never slowed down. When working for a traveling medicine show, his accidental falling off the stage made people laugh so hard it was incorporated into the show, and it was then that he knew what he wanted to do more than anything else - make people laugh.

He moved on to Vaudeville and from there parlayed his talent into radio, television and film. Today, some are still familiar with The Red Skelton Show, which ran for 672 episodes and won the 1959 Golden Globe for Best TV Show. He also found his footing as an actor appearing in such

classics as the Dr. Kildare medical dramas, Ziegfeld Follies, Ship Ahoy and a multitude of others.

A man of many talents and achievements, Skelton was a creative genius who excelled in writing stories, publishing six books. As an artist painting clowns, he made more money from the sale of his paintings, prints and lithographs than he did in television.

Red Skelton also loved horses.

So much so that he owned a 600acre horse ranch in the Anza Valley of Riverside, California. The ranch was laid out as a breeding operation and equipped for ease and function.

Today the ranch is for sale with listing agent Star Evans of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage.

Surrounded by equestrian fencing, improvements include living arrangements of four houses of wood and stone and a three-studio bunk house. In addition to parking for at least 16 cars and various covered carports, there is a 10-car garage to peak the interest of collectors.

The main house, surrounded by trees and green lawn features a

great room, vaulted ceilings, brick fireplaces, a sunny kitchen and rustic wood finishes. Overall there are eight bedrooms, eight baths and almost 10,000 square feet of living space for owners, family, guests and farm hands. Horse facilities include a warehouse, hay barns, equipment barns, stallion stable, indoor and outdoor riding arenas and facilities for visiting horses, ten wells, a threesided walk-in shelter and multiple

paddocks. The ranch is an ideal location to get away for privacy, quiet time, recreation, beautiful mountain views and still be close to Palm Springs and San Diego.

Master comedian and man of many talents, Red Skelton died in 1997 at age 84. His horse ranch is now for sale, priced at $5.995 million.

South Coast Repertory’s 2018-19 Season Lineup Includes Sense and Sensibility, Sweeney Todd and M. Butterfly South Coast Repertory’s 2018-19 season opens with Jane Austen’s romantic classic Sense and Sensibility.

The season also includes the awardwinning musical Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street; the clever comedy Native Gardens; the compelling drama M. Butterfly; the madcap comedy Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike; the intriguing portrait of science pioneer Rosalind Franklin in Photograph 51; and the return of Southern California satirists Culture Clash. Subscriptions are currently on sale and single tickets will become available in June. More information is available at www.scr. org.

“We’re enthusiastic about what next season has to offer,” said SCR Managing Director Paula Tomei. “The range of work is both compelling and entertaining and we look forward to the experience that our audiences and artists will have when they join together.”

Associate Artistic Director John Glore said, “Our upcoming 201819 season celebrates the best in contemporary theatre, with great plays from Broadway and London’s West End and from some of SCR’s favorite artists—including David Henry Hwang, Karen Zacarías, Stephen Sondheim and Culture Clash.”

Rounding out the theatre’s 55th season are two world premieres in the Pacific Playwrights Festival—to be announced at a later date—and the three-play Theatre for Young Audiences series, which includes The Velveteen Rabbit.

On the Segerstrom Stage • Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen, adapted by Jessica Swale • Native Gardens by Karen Zacarías • Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, book

by Hugh Wheeler • M. Butterfly by David Henry Hwang • TBA world premiere for the Pacific Playwrights Festival On the Julianne Argyros Stage • Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike by Christopher Durang • Culture Clash, written and performed by Richard Montoya, Ric Salinas and Herbert Siguenza • Photograph 51 by Anna Ziegler • TBA world premiere for the Pacific Playwrights Festival Theatre for Young Audiences • Nate the Great: A New Musical by John Maclay and Brett Ryback • Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed: The Rock Experience, based on the book Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed

by Mo Willems, script and lyrics by Mo Willems, with music by Deborah Wicks La Puma • The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams Holiday Classic • A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, adapted by Jerry Patch.

The annual showcase of new plays—the Pacific Playwrights Festival (PPF)—features seven new plays over a weekend in a combination of readings and full productions, April Page 16

26–28, 2019. The three-day festival attracts theatre professionals from across the nation—as well as local and regional new-play fans—drawn by the opportunity to see some of the best new works in the country. Over the course of more than two decades, PPF has presented nearly 140 plays by approximately 100 playwrights.

At the holidays, it’s Orange County’s favorite, A Christmas Carol, with Hal Landon Jr. back for his 39th consecutive year as everyone’s favorite curmudgeon, Ebenezer Scrooge. Single tickets for A Christmas Carol go on sale to the public August 1; subscribers enjoy exclusive early access to these tickets.

All dates and plays are subject to change. More information about the season is available online: www.scr. org.

CHRONOLOGICAL LISTING FOR 2018-19 All dates and plays are subject to change.

Sense and Sensibility

By Jane Austen Adapted by Jessica Swale Sept. 1–29, 2018 Segerstrom Stage The Dashwood sisters—practical Elinor and impulsive Marianne— are of good social standing and marriageable age. When Father dies and their half-brother skimps on their inheritance, they are forced to leave their grand estate for a tiny, cold cottage. Just as life seems it’s bleakest, a handsome stranger arrives on horseback and the sisters are convinced their futures are secured. Follow Elinor and Marianne as they chase their dreams from Devonshire to London and back in this charming romantic classic.

Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike

By Christopher Durang Sept. 30– Oct. 21, 2018 Julianne Argyros Stage Vanya and Sonia share a country house where they fret endlessly—and amusingly—about their hapless lives.

When Masha, their self-absorbed movie-star sister, and her much, much younger boy toy, Spike, visit for the weekend, the entire household gets hilariously upended. Rivalries are rekindled, resentments rage, the housekeeper blurts out strange prophecies and Masha announces she’s selling the house. A tonguein-cheek homage to Chekhov, this Tony Award-winning comedy was described as “deliciously madcap”

by USA Today.

Native Gardens. By Karen Zacarías Oct. 13–Nov. 10, 2018 Segerstrom Stage In this comedy of good intentions and bad manners, Pablo and Tania personify the American Dream— young, educated, a baby on the way and new owners of a suburban fixerupper. Virginia and Frank couldn’t be happier or more welcoming, especially when the new next-door neighbors want to replace an ugly chain link fence dividing their yards.

But a dispute over the property line quickly spirals into an all-out war on taste, class and entitlement that the

The Coto de Caza News

Cincinnati Enquirer described as “bright and witty and clever.”

Nate the Great A New Musical

By John Maclay and Brett Ryback Nov. 2–18, 2018 Theatre for Young Audiences Nate the Great, the world’s greatest kid detective, loves solving mysteries—almost as much as eating pancakes. When Annie’s special painting of her dog, Fang, goes missing, Nate’s on a new case! Did Fang bury it? Is Rosamond, who prefers cats over dogs, up to foul play? Come along as Nate searches for clues and gathers the facts in this clever musical that teaches us to see the world in new ways.

Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol Adapted by Jerry Patch Directed by John-David Keller ​Nov. 24–Dec. 24, 2018 Segerstrom Stage Nineteenth-century London comes to life when your family joins the SCR family for the holidays. Recapture the spirit of an old-fashioned Christmas with this timeless Dickens classic and all your favorite characters—Tiny Tim and the Cratchit family, the Fezziwigs, the Ghosts of Christmas past, present and yet-to-come—and, as always, Hal Landon Jr. as everyone’s favorite curmudgeon, Ebenezer Scrooge, for the 39th consecutive year.

Culture Clash Written and performed by Richard Montoya, Ric Salinas and Herbert Siguenza. Dec. 30, 2018–Jan. 20, 2019 Julianne Argyros Stage Those bad boys of comedy are back at it, bringing their special style of irreverent, thought-provoking social satire with them. SCR audiences first experienced their smart, outrageous humor in a playful adaptation of The Birds and later with the wildly popular Culture Clash in AmeriCCa. With the world back under their microscope, expect laundry to be aired, public figures skewered and sacred cows poked. In other words: Classic Culture Clash!

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street Music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim Book by Hugh Wheeler Jan. 19–Feb. 16, 2019 Segerstrom Stage In a barber shop above Mrs. Lovett’s struggling pie shop, Sweeney Todd plots revenge on the lecherous judge who wronged him and his family. In the seedy underbelly of 19th-century London, desperate times lead to diabolical schemes— and strange alliances. With razorsharp wit and extraordinary songs like “Pretty Women” and “Not While I’m Around,” this Tony Award-winning masterpiece was proclaimed, “more fun than a graveyard on the night of the annual skeleton’s ball” by The New York Daily News.

Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed: The Rock Experience Based on the book Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed by Mo Willems Script and Lyrics by Mo Willems Music by Deborah Wicks La Puma Feb. 1–17, 2019 Theatre for Young Audiences

Wilbur is different from all the other Naked Mole Rats. He wears clothes—and he likes it. His friends think it’s ridiculous and needs to stop—that’s just a Naked Mole fact.

After all, what will happen when Grand-Pah, the oldest and wisest elder in the colony finds out? Filled with tail-shaking good tunes, this outrageously fun musical proves it’s okay to be yourself. Rock on!

Photograph 51

By Anna Ziegler March 3–24, 2019 Julianne Argyros Stage Rosalind Franklin was a British pioneer in science in the early 1950s, yet her groundbreaking role in the discovery of DNA’s double helix structure is still often overlooked.

Based on a true story, Photograph 51 presents an intriguing portrait of a complex, courageous woman making her way in a male-dominated field.

While rival teams of researchers compete for a breakthrough, Rosalind, focused and unbending, is locked in a race of her own. A hit in the West End, it was proclaimed “A triumph” by The Telegraph.

TBA: A World Premiere Part of the Pacific Playwrights Festival March 30–April 27, 2019 Segerstrom Stage TBA: A World Premiere Part of the Pacific Playwrights Festival April 14–May 5, 2019 Julianne Argyros Stage M. Butterfly

By David Henry Hwang May 11–June 8, 2019 Segerstrom Stage When this rich, compelling drama debuted on Broadway, it became an instant sensation, sweeping the Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards. A married French diplomat.

A mysterious Chinese opera diva. A passionate 20-year affair. Inspired by true events, this break-out hit by the author of Chinglish and Golden Child proved much more than a steamy tale of seduction. Obsession, perception and the allure of fantasy make for a remarkable tale of espionage and betrayal described as “visionary” by The New York Times.

The Velveteen Rabbit By Margery Williams May 24–June 9, 2019 Theatre for Young Audiences For nearly a century, this beloved classic has captivated and charmed children and adults, alike. Lonely and forgotten, a stuffed rabbit longs to be real. When another toy is lost, he quickly becomes a little boy’s new favorite. As the rabbit’s dapper appearance gets worn and shabby from play, a wonderful change begins to happen. This is a moving story about the power of love—and a little bit of magic.

Table for Ten Culinary event raises $450,000 for charity Photos by Bob Hodson and Tony Lattimore One of the most enjoyable charity events that I have had the privilege to attend is the Table for Ten and this year was their 12th annual culinary spectacular for a sold-out crowd of 320 guests at Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort and Spa in Dana Point. The event attracts gourmet food and fine wine lovers from throughout Southern California for a culinary experience second to none.

Orchestrated by KM Productions for deserving nonprofits in the area, guests enjoy a scrumptious five-course table-side feast, with superb wine pairings.

Opening the ballroom doors, the first thing you see is thirty-two tables, each one beautifully decorated from each participating restaurant and individual gourmet food and wine experiences at each chef’s bidding. It was very exciting to go around each of the tables and see their creative work – so beautiful and inviting as each restaurant out did themselves.

My guest and I were seated at the StillWater Restaurant table and enjoyed an amazing five course dinner from Chef Stephen Kling. He really is amazing explaining each dish as well as the the wine pairing that went with it. We started with an appetizer, Canadian Langoustine, Coconut Curry, Sweet corn relish with Cherry Stone Clams and Kaffir. Course number two gave us hand torn pasta, Cremini, Pecorino and Foie Gras. Next up was a salad with Leroy Fjord Steelhead Salmon, English Pea, Tomato, Fine herbs, Ikura and Basil Oil. The entry was an amazing melt-in-your-mouth Braised Wagyu Beef cheek with cauliflower puree, crisp leek and Honshiemji Mushroom.

For dessert we enjoyed Affogato: Espresso, French Vanilla ice cream and crushed cookies. And each course was paired with a lovely wine – some came from from France, Italy, and the Sonoma Coast.

The live auction was led by gavel girl DawnMarie Kotsonis featuring overthe-top opportunities. The Pelican Hill Resort experience went for $7500; it included an overnight stay in a luxurious four-bedroom 3580 square foot villa with around the clock butler service. Ten lucky guests or a family will stay and enjoy this getaway which includes two 50-minute massages or a round of golf and 10 guests will be treated to a Coliseum Pool and Grill Cabana Chef’s Dinner. Two lucky winners walked away with the Puerto Vallarta Escape valued at $10,000 as it was sold twice for $7000 each. Four nights and five days at the Villa Balboa Resort on Puerto Vallarta’s Gold Coast for up to 12 guests, this experience is pure luxury in a 12,000 square foot ocean front villa. Included is chamber maids, house men, English speaking concierge and administrator – talk about pampering!

A highlight was an autographed guitar which went for $8500 – it was signed by nine music legends, such as Chuck Berry, Carlos Santana, BB King, Neil Young, Eric Clapton and Pete Townsend, as well as a 57-bottle fine wine raffle called “50 Shades of Grape.”

Along with auction monies raised, dinner costs were absorbed by the restaurants and chefs, with special underwriting from event sponsors and a Fund-A-Need auction, making it possible to give nearly $450,000 in net proceeds, divided between the two deserving charities - The Teen Project and Vocational Visions.

Among those attending who were integral to its success were The Teen Project Founder Lauri Burns as well as Title Sponsor Mike Danzi, Chairman/ CEO of Legacy Pharmaceuticals International. Danzi was honored, as was Chef Chair Rachel Haggstrom, executive chef of Balboa Bay Resort, for her longtime commitment to Table for Ten. Among business sponsors were Legacy Pharmaceuticals, Int’l, Preferred Hotels & Resorts (CEO Lindsey Ueberroth was present), Wahoo’s Fish Taco (Co-founder Ed Lee was present), Rutan & Tucker, Pacifica Hotels, SeatXChange, and more.

The two charities were Vocational Visions and The Teen Project.

Vocational Visions’ programs, services and personalized support develops the talents of adults with disabilities by creating pathways to employment, life-long learning and social inclusion. The Teen Project provides teens aging out of the foster care system the resources and support of an intact family to allow them to successfully transition to adulthood.

Exciting Event at Tutto Fresco to Support Cure 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!

Maddie Fragner Cerebral Palsy, the #1 motor disability in America resulting from an injury to a child’s brain at or near birth and does not discriminate. It impacts every demographic in America; one out of every 323 live births.

As with anything in life, the fuel for the life change we wish to bring these children is funding to help underwrite these important initiatives.

With that being said, we are thrilled to announce an exciting fundraising event thanks to our friends at Tutto Fresco Italian Restaurant in Rancho Santa Margarita, as together we introduce a “Recipe for Caring”.

Join us on Saturday, April 28th from 3-5PM and indulge in a sampling of Tutto Fresco’s exquisite hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, and desserts.

Take part in a spirited auction, featuring phenomenal items from local businesses, celebrities, and more. Enjoy live music and mingle with Orange County leaders and influencers. Experience first-hand the difference you can make in the lives of our community’s medically fragile children.

Rancho Santa Margarita’s Debbie Fragner’ s daughter, Maddie, is one of those children. Born three months premature with a bi-lateral brain bleed requiring a complex hospital stay, Maddie’s Cerebral Palsy (CP) diagnosis upended her family’s lives.

Recognizing her ultimate purpose, she left her successful career in corporate America to care for her little girl.

Mahatma Gandhi once said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” She took this advice to heart, advocating for Maddie to receive the fullest possible life. Knowing that the best way to teach others how to treat you is by showing them how to act, she showed others how to treat her child. From day

Festival of Arts Presents Works by Artist Bradford J. Salamon through April 25, 2018 approaches to his method of painting.

“Bradford’s current series includes larger than life paintings of vintage images and objects expressing a dynamic complement of texture and atmosphere that patently illustrate his signature style,” said exhibit curator Pat Sparkuhl.

This exhibit at foaSOUTH showcases his unique portraits of vintage objects alongside his painting “Red Billow Camera” which was acquired by the Festival of Arts Permanent Art Collection in 2012.

ABOUT BRADFORD J. SALAMON Along with traditional schooling at the Art Institute of Southern California, Bradford J. Salamon is a painter who refined his skills during private tutorial sessions under the watchful eyes of working artists such as Jeremy Lipking and David Leffel.

With a body of work spanning from charcoal portraits to gestural landscapes, from intimate interiors to narrative scenes, Bradford is most celebrated for his intuitive oil portraits of both famous and ordinary people. Currently, he is working on paintings of vintage objects “Darth Vader Diptych” by that he also considers portraits Bradford J. Salamon

The Festival of Arts is pleased to announce a new exhibit at foaSOUTH featuring the artwork of contemporary painter Bradford J. Salamon now on display through April 25, 2018.

Born into a family of artists, Salamon worked as a professional illustrator, opening studios in Newport Beach, Costa Mesa and Fountain Valley before relocating to Los Angeles in 2013. Before his move, he exhibited at the Festival of Arts for eight years. His study of significant, historical painters has enabled him to develop a unique blend of classical and contemporary

Publications about his work include reviews in ArtScene, ISM, and Modern Luxury magazines, coverage in the Orange County Register and OC Weekly, and most notably, essays by critics and curators in Orange County Tastemakers. Bradford’s art is included in collections at the Laguna Art Museum, the Orange County Museum of Art, Chapman University, and in private holdings.

and residents of Laguna Beach by promoting Festival-related exhibitions throughout the year. Located at 1006 S. Coast Highway on the corner of Anita and PCH, the gallery has partnered with Active Culture to provide frozen yogurt and natural foods on the premises at their café.

Healthy Living Habits that Work

When it comes to advice about healthy living, there are opinions nearly every place you turn.

Unfortunately, a great deal of that information is based on fad diets and trendy workouts that may deliver quick results but don’t promote a sustainable, healthy lifestyle.

The medical community generally agrees that slow and steady is the way to win the race toward healthy living. Adopting a broad set of healthier habits can deliver results over time and foster a new way of living that promotes your overall health and wellbeing.

Aim for balance. A diet that combines healthy levels of protein and carbohydrates from all the food groups is the surest way to deliver your body the vitamins and nutrients you need for optimal health. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans call for an eating plan that is centered on fruits, vegetables, whole grains and reduced-fat dairy foods, rounded out by lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs and nuts for protein. When planning your meals, be sure to limit saturated fats, trans fats, cholesterol, sodium and added sugar.

Know when to say when. Building a healthy lifestyle is about more than eating the right foods. It also means keeping your calorie count in check.

That means keeping the amount you eat and the portion size in mind. Work with your doctor or a nutritionist to determine your body’s true caloric needs, which can vary depending on numerous factors such as your age, activity level and overall health. Then get smart about the portion sizes that will help you stay within those parameters. Initially, you may want to weigh out portions but soon you’ll be able to recognize and adjust your portions on sight.

Set your body in motion. Increasing your activity level not only helps burn calories and boosts your metabolism, it also helps tone your muscles and improve overall body condition by promoting healthy blood flow. The exact amount of exercise you need will vary depending on your goals, age and physical ability. You may need to work up to the optimal level, which according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is 150 minutes of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity a week for most adults.

Replace what you lose. A strong workout may help you shed calories, but it also can deplete your body of essential fluids. Staying hydrated is crucial to keep your body functioning properly, from regulating your body temperature to providing the

lubrication your joints and muscles need to keep you in motion.

Rehydrating during and after exercise is important for getting the most out of your workout. For example, try incorporating an electrolyte beverage, such as Propel Electrolyte Water, which helps replace what is lost in sweat and supports hydration by stimulating thirst and promoting fluid retention. The 10 flavors contain no calories and provide B vitamins to support metabolism as part of a daily diet and antioxidant vitamins C and

E. Learn more at PropelWater.com.

Give yourself a break. Most experts agree it’s OK to indulge and enjoy your favorite treat occasionally.

Skipping a day at the gym won’t end your efforts either. The key is to make those allowances an exception rather than the norm, skipping one day instead of three or eating a sliver of pie, not a giant slice. Rewarding yourself within reason is a good way to stay motivated and create a sustainable healthy lifestyle.

It’s Not Too Late to Jumpstart a Healthy Lifestyle for 2018

Each year, millions of Americans make New Year’s resolutions to achieve personal or professional goals. For many, that means focusing on improving health and wellness.

You tell yourself this is going to be the year you join a gym, eat better or drink more water. Yet that commitment often falls short, as a recent survey suggests less than 10 percent of Americans achieve their resolutions.

There are many reasons people fall short of their goals, including setting the bar too high or being overly restrictive, which can lead to small failures and setbacks. However, there are easy ways to get back on track.

A Global Water Survey, published

by Nestlé Waters and Kantar TNS, revealed 94 percent of American respondents believe drinking water helps maintain a healthy lifestyle.

One key to jumpstarting a healthy lifestyle is staying hydrated by drinking more water. With so much focus on food, beverage choices are often overlooked. With no calories or added sugars, water is a smart choice to stay hydrated. Here are four tips from Sarah Ladden, a registered dietitian and Director, Nutrition, Health and Wellness at Nestlé Waters North America, to help you stay hydrated in 2017 and beyond.

Good habits shouldn’t feel bad.

Overly restrictive commitments can set you up for failure. Instead, adopt

small and manageable changes to your daily routine and they can add up to big changes over time. For example, swapping just one 12-ounce (140 calorie), sugar-sweetened beverage with water each day could cut up to 50,000 calories and more than 65 cups of sugar from your diet in a year.

Replace what you lose. Adults are made up of 60 percent water, which needs to be replenished throughout the day to help you maintain a proper fluid balance. Keep water within reach all day – a pitcher on the kitchen

counter, a bottle in your car’s center console, a refillable bottle at your desk – to keep healthy hydration top of mind.

Add some sparkle to your day.

Sparkling water is a great option for those who favor something other than plain water. With zero calories and no added sugar, sparkling water is a delicious, refreshing choice for healthy hydration. When entertaining, consider adding a DIY sparkling water bar to your repertoire – just put out some sparkling water, sliced fruits,

vegetables and herbs, and your guests can do the rest.

Turn your water bottle into your travel companion. The survey revealed that American consumers are 72 percent more likely to drink water in their cars.

Whether you’re commuting to work or running errands, you’re constantly on the go and a bottle of water could be your best companion.

Spring Forward with an Original Farm-to-Table Spread

With warm weather on the horizon, it’s time and we turned the clocks forward and said “so long” to winter and “hello” to longer spring days.

With an extra hour of daylight, spring is the perfect season to get outside, enjoy the fresh air and get the family on track with healthy habits and quality nutrition starting at breakfast.

As you plan morning meals for your family this spring, remember that milk provides important nourishment – like high-quality protein – for you and your kids. As one of the original farmto-table food, this wholesome drink typically arrives on grocery store shelves in just two days from many family-owned and operated dairy farms. Milk is minimally processed for safety and farm fresh, often originating from dairy farms fewer than 300 miles away from your grocery store.

Be aware of food allergies when bringing treats to school

Back-to-school season is in full effect and parents are preparing their children for a safe and successful school year. At the beginning of the school year, many teachers organize a list of parents who will supply treats for special occasions throughout the year. For students, treat time at school is a big deal. The children look forward to sampling the different goodies, and the parents consult with each other and explore recipes to find the perfect treat that everyone will love.

As the school year gets underway, parents, teachers and school staff need to keep in mind children who have food-related allergies, both in the classroom and in the school building. Food is a very important part of the school day - from snacks and treats to the lunch served, but children with food allergies could face extreme consequences if they come in contact with certain foods.

All states have laws governing how schools protect students and employees with allergies and asthma, but these laws vary from state to state. Some have comprehensive public policies supporting people with asthma, food allergies, anaphylaxis risk and related allergic disease, and those states are recognized by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America’s (AAFA) State Honor Roll of Asthma and Allergy Policies for Schools. AAFA’s State Honor Roll identifies how states either excel or don’t yet make-the-grade for these policies. Check out what laws and policies have been established in your state at www.

StateHonorRoll.org.

Also keep the guidelines from your state in mind as you purchase or make treats for your

child’s classroom, from Halloween all the way to Valentine’s Day: * Check with the classroom teacher and the school first about foods that should not be brought into the school building. Some children have extreme allergies, such as to peanuts, and can react to minimum contact like touching a door handle that had been previously touched by someone handling something with nuts. Any food can cause an allergic reaction, but milk, soy, eggs, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, fish and shellfish allergies are some of the most common.

If purchasing a snack, read the ingredients list carefully, and double check it against the allergy list provided by the school. * When preparing the foods - or shopping at the grocery store - make certain the items you’ll be taking to the classroom don’t come in contact with foods that are barred from the school. This includes washing pots, pans and utensils thoroughly before blending ingredients when baking at home. * If your child has been diagnosed with a food allergy, consider making special treats he can enjoy without worrying about the snacks containing the foods he’s allergic to. Also develop an allergy action plan with your child’s doctor, teacher and the school nurse. A free asthma/allergy action card is available from AAFA on the State Honor Roll website, which helps you outline what foods to avoid, what medications to keep (an epinephrine auto-injector is the best first-line emergency treatment), what to do in case of emergencies, who to contact and more. The AAFA site also has many other pages of free information and tips about food allergies.

Encourage your children to enjoy special treat time at school. But also encourage them to be aware that some of their classmates may have serious reactions if they are to come in contact with certain foods. And when preparing a special treat for the classroom, keep food allergies at the forefront of your thoughts, and the celebration will be much more fun for everyone since children with food allergies won’t have to worry about the foods they’re eating. - (BPT)

Decorating with light captures the fresh spirit of spring

Something about spring seems to inspire us to lavish attention on our homes. Whether enthusiastically cleaning or freshening decor, Americans seize spring as an opportunity to breathe new life into interior spaces. While painting and decluttering are great ways to revitalize home decor, for sheer spring-like impact it’s hard to beat decorating with light.

Incorporating light into interior design can go far beyond a few strategically placed, attractive lamps and some upgraded overhead lights.

It’s possible to use both natural and artificial lighting to complement other decor and architectural elements, and to create a brighter, upbeat mood that’s perfect for warm weather. Not sure where to begin? Here are a few concepts to keep in mind as you begin decorating with light: Natural beauty There’s no debating the benefits of natural light for boosting mood. After dark, short winter days, spring brings abundant sunshine, and you can put all that natural light to work in your home. Boost daylighting by lightening up window treatments to admit as much sunshine as possible, choose fresh paint colors that interplay well with the direction from which light

enters a room, and consider adding skylights to rooms that demand drama or where adding a window isn’t practical.

A relatively low cost home improvement that can be accomplished by a professional in a day or two or over a single weekend, adding a skylight not only enhances home decor, it delivers energysaving benefits as well. Skylights can help reduce dependence on artificial lighting - saving money on electricity bills. And, if you choose an ENERGY STAR certified solarpowered, fresh-air skylight like those made by Velux America and add remote-controlled, solar-powered blinds, you can improve the skylight’s energy performance rating by as much as 45 percent while improving indoor air quality through the venting effect of open skylights (which close automatically in case of rain). -Solarpowered skylights and blinds qualify for a 30 percent federal tax credit, as does the cost of installation. Visit www.whyskylights.com to learn more.

Lightening colors Some hues absorb more light, making them appear darker which causes the room to look dark as well. Spring is a great time to lighten colors throughout the home, and not

just wall colors. Fresh paint brightens any room, but to amplify the effect, choose lighter, less intense colors such as pastel yellows, peaches and soft blues.

Continue the color upgrade through key decorating elements such as upholstery fabric, accent rugs, window treatments and wall art.

Choose colors that speak to you of spring, whether it’s an Easter egg pale purple, a cheerful sky blue or a bright grass green. Replace heavy winter drapes with translucent sheers that admit natural light and give rooms an airy, open feeling.

Upgrading other light sources While you take steps to maximize the amount of natural light that enters you home, artificial lighting will always be needed, especially when spring showers darken the skies for a while.

Choose light fixtures - including floor and table lamps - that continue the bright, easy atmosphere you’ve already created with color and natural light.

Keep in mind the importance of layering light with a mix of sources throughout a room, and choose lighting styles that fit the room’s purpose. For example, in kitchens where a lot of work gets done, overhead and under-counter lights provide the best

illumination for cooking and other chores. In bedrooms, wall sconces and table lamps provide softer, more soothing light.

Don’t overlook energy efficiency when you’re revamping your artificial lighting. Spring is a great time to boost your home’s energy efficiency by replacing old, electricity-guzzling incandescent light bulbs with energysipping CFLs and LEDs. While these bulbs may cost more to purchase, you’ll save money over their usable life. Energy.gov says these bulbs use 25 to 80 percent less energy than incandescents, and can last three to 25 times longer. - (BPT)

When it comes to pairing wine with food, even experts agree that desserts can pose a challenge. A wide variety of flavor combinations can make it hard to find the perfect selection to serve with your sweet treat. While there’s no exact science to wine pairing, these simple tips can help you make your selection.

Sweet Cheesecake A good rule: the lighter the dessert, the lighter the wine. Avoid heavy reds for a sweeter dessert and instead pair with a crisp white like Chardonnay, such as Joseph Carr from Sonoma, California.

Citrusy Lemon Meringue Pie Lemon flavors can sometimes be polarizing, but complementing this dessert with an equally citrusy wine can work wonders. Try pairing with a food-friendly pinot grigio or a sauvignon blanc.

Rich Chocolate Cake Red wine with chocolate seems like a no-brainer, but not all red wines are created equal. For a richer delicacy like this devil’s food cake, try something like Villa Pozzi Nero D’avola, a more fruit-forward, easydrinking red varietal.

5 fun ways to decorate for spring Spring is the perfect time to shake things up with your home decor. As Mother Nature transforms her landscape with fresh buds and blooms, you’re probably longing to refresh your home, too. These five easy craft projects are perfect family activities and the results will add touches of springtime throughout the house.

Rain boot wreath Do you have a pair of rain boots your kids have grown out of? Use these as an adorable way to display silk flowers in the entryway. Simply select your favorite long-stem flowers from your local craft store (hint: tulips are perfect for spring). Have kids help arrange flowers inside boots and then hang with a large decorative ribbon on your door.

Thumbprint flower pots Jazz up boring terracotta pots with acrylic paint and the tiny fingerprints from your mini helpers.

Have kids wear a smock (acrylic paint can stain), then carefully dip fingertips into paint and press onto the pot. For example, red fingerprints can be turned into cute ladybugs with a few black details when dry. You can also use fingerprints to create flowers, butterflies and more.

Flip-flop welcome sign Favorite warm-weather foot gear can be used to create a cute sign welcoming guests to your home. Buy four pairs of colorful flip flops from any dollar store. Line up and then adhere each side together with hot glue (eight flip-flops total glued Page 28

together). On the heel of each sandal paint a letter from “Welcome!” When done, let kids adorn with colorful gems, stickers, and other fun spring details.

PEEPS spring centerpiece PEEPS is the quintessential springtime candy, but is also great when used in crafts like this colorful centerpiece. Just follow these easy DIY directions and you’ll create a centerpiece that will be a real conversation starter for kids and adults alike. For more project ideas, visit www.marshmallowpeeps. com.

Supplies: 4-inch cube vase 6-inch cube vase Jelly beans 30 Gerbera Daisies or silk flowers of choice 20 PEEPS Bunnies Directions: 1. Center one vase inside the other and insert jelly beans (in any colors you like) between the walls of the two cubes.

2. Place PEEPS on top of jelly beans, making sure to save a few for the corners of the vase.

Don’t be afraid to squeeze them into the space.

You should have enough to fill in any gaps.

3. Gerberas are usually sold with plastic tubes on the stems for support. Keeping the plastic in place, cut the flowers to desired length and arrange them in the smaller vase.

The Coto de Caza News

4. Cutting shorter stems for the outside flowers and longer stems for the inner ones will give you a nice rounded top. And don’t skimp on flowers: If you don’t want to use that many gerberas, find a pair of smaller vases.

Pastel painted pine cones Take kids on a nature walk and collect pine cones. Brush off dirt and allow to dry if moist. Then, lay out paper and have kids paint pine cones in festive pastel colors. Mint green, soft pink and sky blue are classic spring hues. Once dry, display in a decorative bowl and hang from strings in front of a window. - (BPT)

SB 54 prompts Sheriff’s Department Coto de Caza News Legal Notices to publicly post inmate release dates PUBLIC NOTICE NOTICE OF 30-DAY PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD AND PUBLIC HEARING TO BE HELD BY THE CITY OF RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA REGARDING SUBMISSION OF THE 2018-2019 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN

NOTICE is hereby given that the City of Rancho Santa Margarita City Council will hold a public hearing and public comment period for the Action Plan for Fiscal Year 2018-2019. This action is taken in compliance with federal regulations [24 CFR 91].

As a recipient of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, the City is required to prepare a Consolidated Plan every five years. The City is also required to update the related Action Plan on an annual basis.

The Consolidated Plan is a five-year strategic plan that identifies housing and community needs, strategies to address needs, and programs/ resources to address these needs. The Action Plan delineates proposed activities to be funded under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) CDBG program.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Department will make publicly available inmate release dates through the existing “Who’s in Jail” online database. This action will enhance communication between the Sheriff’s Department and our law enforcement partners to remove dangerous offenders from our community.

Senate Bill 54, which took effect on January 1, 2018, placed restrictions on collaboration between local custody operations and federal law enforcement authorities. The legislation specifically prohibited local law enforcement’s communication with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on the release of certain undocumented offenders.

This provision of the law increases the likelihood of dangerous offenders being released back into the community. The law, however, does not limit information that is available to the public.

SB 54 provides sheriffs with the discretion to respond to ICE’s requests for notification of the pending release of specified serious offenders under the TRUST Act. Sheriff Hutchens directed staff to respond to requests from ICE for any criminal who meets the specifications. From Jan. 1 to March 19, 168 inmates who fall within

this provision have been released to ICE custody.

Sheriff Hutchens joined law enforcement leaders across the state in opposing SB 54 when the legislation was first proposed in December 2016, as provisions in the bill hindered collaborative efforts to remove serious offenders from the community. Additionally, the law is inconsistent with widely accepted best practices of open communication amongst all levels of law enforcement. Both Sheriff Hutchens and Undersheriff Don Barnes actively engaged with legislators to encourage defeat of the bill. While these efforts resulted in the removal of some harmful sections of the bill, the final version limited communication in a way that puts the public at risk.

“SB 54 makes local law enforcement’s job more difficult and requires bureaucratic processes that could allow dangerous individuals to fall through the cracks of our justice system,” said Sheriff Sandra Hutchens. “My department, however, remains committed to cooperating fully with federal authorities in all areas where I have discretion to remove serious criminals from our community.”

30-Day Public Comment Period The required 30-day public comment period for the 2018-2019 Annual Action Plan will commence April 9, 2018 and will end May 8, 2018. The draft document will be available for public review upon request at the public counter at Rancho Santa Margarita City Hall – 22112 El Paseo, Rancho Santa Margarita 92688. City Hall is open Monday through Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. The draft will also be posted on the City’s website (www.cityofrsm.org). Written comments regarding the draft Annual Action Plan may be submitted to the attention of Mike Linares at the City Hall address. All written comments must be received by the City no later than 4 PM May 8, 2018.

2018-2019 Action Plan HUD has not notified the City of its final CDBG allocation for 2018; however, for planning purposes, it is anticipated the City will receive an allocation of $180,000 in CDBG funds for Fiscal Year 2018-2019. Consistent with HUD’s guidelines, once the 2018-2019 CDBG grant is announced by HUD, staff will adjust the proposed allocations listed below by a uniform percentage based on the final grant amount and taking into consideration any conditions set by the City Council. The proposed use of CDBG funds includes the following: Proposed Activity Proposed CDBG Allocation • Public services for lower income $27,000 persons, seniors and disabled adults • Minor Home Repair Program $25,000 • Public facility and/or infrastructure $92,000 improvements • Program administration (including Fair $36,000 Housing counseling) 2018-2019 Action Plan Public Hearing The City is also required to hold a public hearing to obtain additional public comments regarding the draft 2018-2019 Annual Action Plan. Notice is hereby given that the City of Rancho Santa Margarita City Council will hold a public hearing on Wednesday May 9, 2018, for this purpose. The hearing will be held in the City Council Chambers located at 22112 El Paseo, Rancho Santa Margarita. The City Council meeting will be held at 7:00 PM or soon thereafter. For additional information regarding the hearing (including reasonable requests for special accommodations for persons with disabilities), please contact Mike Linares at (949) 635-1800 Ext. 6702.

If you wish to challenge the City’s decision in court, the challenge will be limited only to those issues you or someone else raised at the public hearing, prior to the public hearing, or in written correspondence delivered to the City Clerk’s Department, prior to, the public hearing described in this notice.

The agenda report for this item will be available Friday, May 4, 2018, by 5:00 p.m. on the City’s website at www.cityofrsm.org. Additionally, a copy of the report may be obtained at City Hall during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. It is recommended that you contact City Hall to ensure a copy of the report is available for distribution.

For further information you may wish to call City Hall at (949) 635-1800.

GRAHAM, A MARRIED MAN AS HIS SOLE AND SEPARATE PROPERTY AND HEATHER GILLASPIE, A SINGLE WOMAN, BY DEED WHICH PURPORTS TO CREATE A JOINT TENANCY, as Trustor(s), in favor of MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC. as nominee for MEGASTAR FINANCIAL CORP., A COLORADO CORPORATION as Beneficiary, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”.

Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $688,561.86 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. 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. 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.
