ELKS HONOR MEMBERS FOR YEARS OF SERVICE

Five year members present to receive service pins By: Andy Costello Mission Viejo / Saddleback Valley Elks Lodge No. 2444 conducted their annual tribute to members for years of service at a recent meeting. This year’s event, which was well attended by Elks members and guests, recognized years of tenure from one (1) to fifty-five (55). Exalted Ruler (“ER”) Mike Long presided over the meeting. Lodge Secretary Laura Lumley acted as master of ceremonies and awarded 162 service pins. Secretary Lumley said of the event, “Pins are awarded for five-year increments of service. We affectionately call it ‘Old Timers Night’ and it is always a fun filled get-together for the recipients and attendees. There is always lots of storytelling from the older members about the early history of our Lodge.” Over 138 members were awarded five through thirty-year pins. In the most seniors presentations, a 35-year service pin went to Past Exalted Ruler Tom Schreck, and Don Sweetland received a forty-year pin. Celebrating 55 years of membership and present to receive recognition and 55-year pins were Karl Beierschmitt and Don Lundholm. ER Long said of the event, “Our Lodge prides itself on

the increasing numbers of younger men and women who are becoming members. We love to see those young families here enjoying themselves at a Friday night dinner as they are certainly the future of the Elks.” Long added, “Nevertheless, I think it is great when we honor our old timers. They are the people who built and made our Lodge and the Elks the charity organization it is today.” The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks also reached a historic milestone in February as it is celebrating its 150 Anniversary. Twenty year members Vicki Myers-McCann, Past Exalted Ruler Gloria Plans are in the final stages for a R. LeCouvre, Tommy Dobsch, Andy Dumont, and Past Exalted Ruler gala 150th birthday party which Charlie Hart will take place at the Elks National Convention in San Antonio Texas this coming July. The Mission Viejo / Saddleback Elks Lodge No. 2444, celebrating forty-eight (48) years of service to the Saddleback Valley communities, is one of ten lodges in the Orange Coast District of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks (BPOE) whose headquarters is in Chicago, Illinois. The BPOE is a charitable organization with a proud 150 year history of giving, “Elks Care, Elks Share.”

Navigating the Cooking Oil Aisle – Fast Facts

Corn may be the top crop in Iowa, but many consumers are not aware of corn oil’s heart-healthy benefits1 and its versatility in the kitchen. When cooking for your family, selecting the best ingredients for a heart-healthy meal can be challenging and there is one ingredient that is often the core of any recipe: cooking oil. However, navigating the cooking oil aisle can be confusing, so this guide breaks down everything the home chef needs to know about cooking with oil. Heart-Health Focused Maintaining healthy cholesterol levels is important to your heart health, and when it comes to impact on cholesterol, not all cooking oils are created equal. Next time you find yourself reaching for extra virgin olive oil at the grocery store, consider swapping it out for corn oil, which a study shows can help lower cholesterol two times more than extra virgin olive oil2. Corn oil also has nearly five times the amount of polyunsaturated fats compared to olive oil3 and these heart-healthy polyunsaturated fats help reduce cholesterol levels in your blood4. Making a conscious effort to use

ingredients like Mazola® Corn Oil is a smart, heart-healthy choice for your family. A Gut Decision When it comes to lowering your cholesterol and staying heart healthy, go with your gut. Corn oil contains cholesterol-blocking plant sterols – plant-based micronutrients that help block the absorption of cholesterol in your gut and work to prevent bad cholesterol (LDL) from entering the blood stream5. Corn oil contains nearly four times more cholesterolblocking plant sterols than olive oil, three times as many as vegetable oil and nearly 1.5x more than canola oil6. Sourcing the Best Ingredients Today, more and more families are paying close attention to where their food comes from and prefer locally sourced ingredients. Opting for local food can give you more confidence in the ingredients you use in your family’s meals. Mazola® Corn Oil is produced from corn in the Midwest, including corn grown in Iowa. A lot of olive oil is imported from the Mediterranean region, while most canola oil comes from our friendly neighbors up north in Canada. But,

did you know that you can get hearthealthy corn oil that’s grown and made right here in the US? Multipurpose Functionality Whether you fancy yourself a top-notch baker, grill master or just starting out, each ingredient selected plays an important role in obtaining the meal’s desired taste. Extra virgin olive oil has a strong flavor that can change the taste of the foods you cook. Corn oil is an all-purpose cooking oil with a neutral taste that lets the true flavors of your dish come through, making it the perfect ingredient for heart-healthy dishes

like pan-fried salmon or in a salad dressing over a bed of spinach. Corn oil can also handle the heat in the kitchen because of its high smoke point (450°F), making it a great, allpurpose cooking oil for everything from grilling and sauteing to stir frying and baking. This is key for crafting quality meals at home because once a smoke point is exceeded, the food flavor and nutritional value are negatively affected.

Make Protein at Breakfast This Year’s Resolution

Tired of the same New Year’s resolution? The popular yet undefined goal to make healthy choices often fails after a few weeks as we get tired of pursuing such a lofty goal. This year, get specific with your goal and commit to making the most of each day by increasing your protein intake at breakfast. Americans tend to eat most of their protein in the evening, but back-loading protein at dinner can affect how your body uses it. That’s why experts recommend spacing out your protein intake throughout the day to make the most of the important nutrition it provides. In fact, many nutrition experts now recommend getting 25-30 grams of protein at each meal for the best daily nutrition, yet Americans only get about 13 grams of protein at breakfast, on average.

Pairing a glass of milk (or chocolate milk) and its high-quality protein with your eggs or favorite overnight oats combination is an easy, delicious way to help get the 25-30 grams of protein recommended before noon. Plus, you’ll feel fuller longer so you can focus on the things you want to accomplish. For more information on how you can fill up your cup with milk to get closer to your morning protein goal, visit MilkLife.com. Savory Oatmeal with Soft-Cooked Egg and Bacon Servings: 1 Protein: 32 grams 1 cup lowfat milk 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats, uncooked 1 pinch sea salt 1 teaspoon cooking oil (or 1/2-second spray) 1 large egg 1 tablespoon cheddar cheese, shredded 1 slice cooked bacon, coarsely chopped 2 teaspoons green onion, sliced

salt and pepper (optional) Combine milk, oats and salt and cook according to package instructions. While oats cook, heat small, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat with cooking oil. Add egg and cook about 3-4 minutes for runny yolk. Serve oatmeal topped with cheese, bacon, egg and green onion. If desired, season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with 8-ounce glass of milk. Nutrition information per serving: 540 calories; 23 g fat; 8 g saturated fat; 225 mg cholesterol; 32 g protein; 52 g carbohydrates; 4 g fiber; 800 mg sodium; 605 mg calcium (70% of daily value). Nutrition figures based on using lowfat milk and including an 8-ounce glass of milk. Almond Butter English Muffin with Peach-Topped Cottage Cheese paired with Chocolate Milk Servings: 1 Protein: 32 grams 1 tablespoon almond butter 1 English muffin, toasted and halved

1/2 cup cottage cheese 1/4 cup diced peaches Spread almond butter on toasted English muffin. Nutrition information per serving: 230 calories; 10 g fat; 1 g saturated fat; 0 mg cholesterol; 9 g protein; 30 g carbohydrates; 6 g fiber; 280 mg sodium; 229 mg calcium (25% of daily value). For morning snack: Top cottage cheese with peaches and serve with 8-ounce glass of chocolate milk. Nutrition information per serving: 270 calories; 3.5 g fat; 2.5 g saturated fat; 10 mg cholesterol; 22 g protein; 38 g carbohydrates; 2 g fiber; 610 mg sodium; 361 mg calcium (35% of daily value).

S anta M ar g arita C atholic H i g h S chool B oys ’ V arsity L acrosse 2 0 1 8 P review Photos by: Dennis Walsh Santa Margarita Eagles’ Head Coach Adam Guy is entering his 5th season as the Boys’ Varsity Head Coach and has the 2-Time Defending Trinity League Champions primed for another deep run into the CIF Southern Section Playoffs. The Santa Margarita Eagles last defeat in league play was 2015 and Coach Guy is looking to defend their title with Orange County’s best offensive team led by Senior All-American Quentin Buchman (Notre Dame University) who is closing in on 300 career points. Buchman, one of the nation’s most highly sought-after recruits and the reigning Trinity League MVP will be supported by an unprecedented cast of offensive weapons. The Santa Margarita Eagles’ Midfielders are the best ever at Santa Margarita and may be the Southern Section’s top threats with Senior Midfielder and Academic AllAmerican Michael Walsh (1st Team All-League/3rd Team All-County) and Senior Nicholas Parrino (2nd Team All- League/Honorable Mention All-County) combining for 62 goals and 40 assists last year returning with both looking to continue their playing days at University of Texas, TCU, SDSU or SMU in 2019. Walsh and Parrino came on strong last year while leading the Eagle’s to a school best record of 15 wins & 5 losses (6-0 in Trinity League Play). Buchman, Walsh and Parrino without question form the County’s best talent at midfield and will be dominating again this spring. At Attack, Sophomore Sensation Tyler Wrightson returns after contributing 23 goals and 11 assists and may be Orange County’s best kept secret. This kid can rip it and

has the speed and stick skills to become a top-notch college player. If that wasn’t enough, Junior Attack and 3-year letterman Jack Allendar also returns with his 21 goals and 11 assists giving Guy five scorning threats from all over the field. Watch out for junior Ryan You to be a difference maker this season as well. Ryan has the ability to play multiple positions on the field and his energy level can be contagious. Defensively, Guy has a solid group of young defenders led by returning starter and Junior Ryan Sigal who played outstanding defense last year and from multiple reports, had an incredible off-season dominating play in summer and fall tournaments last year. Sigal will be joined by converted LSM Matt Ury (1st Team All-League/2nd Team All-County) and possibly Freshman Kai Solomon who has received rave reviews by the staff and fans this past off-season. Senior Matt Ury will be continuing his lacrosse career at D1 Bellarmine University in Kentucky. Coach Guy will also have the benefits of returning senior Robert Colley at SSDM who has been a pillar in the middle of the field on defense the past two seasons. Junior Goalie Ryan Olsker will defend between the pipes and has showed great promise with limited playing time last year. The Santa Margarita Eagles’ look to kick off their season is just a few weeks with their first round of practices. Look for Coach Guys’ team to be ranked near the top of the Orange County boy’s lacrosse rankings this preseason.

K i d W orks F oun d ation Raises More Than $768,000 Photos by Ann Chatillon The 2017 KidWorks’ Foundation for Success (FFS) Luncheon was held at the Doubletree Hotel, Santa Ana, and set a record by raising more than $768,000 to help fund afterschool education and leadership development programs conducted by the nonprofit headquartered in central Santa Ana. This is the largest sum raised since the inception of the luncheon in 2007 and represents the majority of the after-school program budget funding academic enrichment, tutoring, leadership development, and college readiness programs at the expanded KidWorks Dan Donahue Center. Now in it’s 11th year, the event is always a looked-forward-to-event as the luncheon is emotionally charged as the positive effects of KidWorks on the challenged children served by the organization is definitely something the attendees are supporting. The prestigious 2017 Dan Donahue Leadership Award was presented to David A. Pyle, Philanthropist, Founder/Chief Executive Officer of American Career College and Shareholder of West Coast University. “This very special award recognizes Mr. Pyle’s fervent support for KidWorks’ youth and families,” said David Benavides, KidWorks’ Executive Director. “For decades, Mr. Pyle has been a leader and innovator in the private, postsecondary education community, and he is as passionate about the community as he is about supporting health care and educational programs that aid underserved children and families.” “I have been a supporter of KidWorks because these young men and woman are being developed as our future leaders and will be making a difference in our communities,” said Pyle. “Seeing firsthand the interaction of the kids, family members, staff and volunteers as they grow is inspiring and something I am proud to be a part of.” Centerpieces on each of the tables were Uncle Dan stuffed bears, named after Dan Donahue, the late benefactor of KidWorks and namesake on the Dan Donahue Center The event’s keynote speaker Chad Williams, author of the bestselling book, “SEAL of God,” talked about his coming to terms with the direction of his life and his subsequent journey through the grueling Naval Ops training. He was one of only 13 to make it to graduation day and has served his country on multiple deployments to defend freedom. Also recognized at the event was Alfredo Padilla, one of KidWorks many amazing student success stories. He is a recent California State University, Northridge graduate, where he earned his degree in kinesiology. Since its inception in 2007, KidWorks’ annual Foundation for Success event has raised nearly $5.8 million to fund programs at the KidWorks Dan Donahue Center. The Orange County Business Journal has consistently named the KidWorks’ Foundation for Success event in the “Top Five Charity Luncheons in Orange County.” Since 1993, KidWorks has helped at-risk children, youth and families in Santa Ana, California thrive in body, mind and spirit. As a 501(C)(3) nonprofit, KidWorks offers educational support, leadership and character-building programs, and health and fitness activities that begin with preschoolers and follow youth into their college years. KidWorks’ main building, the Dan Donahue Center, serves the highest number of children and offers a state-licensed preschool. In total, KidWorks operates four centers that have become safe havens in gang-heavy, highcrime and overcrowded residential areas in central Santa Ana. KidWorks serves 1,000 children, youth and parents weekly and reaches over 4,000 community members annually. To learn more about KidWorks please visit www.kidworksoc.org. Page 12

Simple Ways to Manage Pain Sooner is better when it comes to managing nagging aches and pains that can hamper your healthy lifestyle. In fact, the coming winter months are when pain pops up the most for people of all ages, according to celebrity trainer Ramona Braganza. Keys to keeping active and painfree are getting ahead of pain and preventing it from becoming a larger problem that is harder to handle. To help reduce and prevent pain, Omron has partnered with Braganza to provide five easy tips to keep you doing the things you love while helping minimize pain and keeping that spring in your step this winter: Sit Tall: If you have a desk job, proper posture can help to reduce back pain as you age. Sit with your back straight with your shoulders back; distribute your body weight evenly on both hips, bend your knees at right angles and keep your feet flat on the floor. Be Flexible: Whether it’s weekly yoga, or standing up and stretching between long periods of sitting, flexibility can help you stay fit and strong. One simple stretch: stand with your feet shoulder width apart, place hands on your lower back with finger tips pointing down, slowly lean back

as far as comfortable while looking up at the ceiling, then return to start. Repeat five times. Eat Smart: Reduce the risk of inflammation by incorporating antiinflammatory foods such as tomatoes, olive oil, nuts, fatty fish, fruits and vegetables into your diet as much as possible. Master the Basics: Shoveling, pushing furniture and even gardening can be hard on your muscles, so it’s important to keep them strong in order to prevent pain. For safe and proper training techniques, visit ramonabraganza.com. Power Up to Reduce Pain: A proven therapy often used by physical therapists that you can get without a prescription is TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation), which offers a practical solution to your everyday pain management needs because it’s portable and can help lessen the need for pain medication. Omron offers one of the most powerful TENS units on the market and it is 100 percent drug free. For more ways to keep those aches and pains at bay, especially as the temperature drops, visit omronhealthcare.com.

Do It Yourself Car Care Everyone Can Do

While taking your car to an auto service professional is a great way to ensure its performance, the Car Care Council reminds vehicle owners there are few simple vehicle checks that they can easily learn and do themselves to save a little money and help keep their vehicles running efficiently all summer long. With basic knowledge of common maintenance practices and a little time, motorists can inspect the following components in their own driveway: Check the tires, including tire pressure and tread. Uneven wear indicates a need for wheel alignment. Tires should also be checked for bulges and bald spots. Check all fluids, including engine oil, power steering and brake and transmission, as well as windshield washer fluid and antifreeze/coolant. Check the hoses and belts as they can become cracked, brittle, frayed, loose or show signs of excessive wear. These are critical to the proper functioning of the electrical system, air conditioning, power steering and the cooling system.

Check the wipers and lighting so that you can see and be seen. Check that all interior and exterior lighting is working properly and inspect and replace worn wiper blades. Keep the reservoir filled with windshield washer fluid. To keep the cooling system working effectively, the coolant and distilled water mixture for a vehicle’s radiator should be 50:50. Never open a hot radiator cap when checking the coolant level in the reservoir. As a rule of thumb, the coolant should be changed annually on most vehicles. Check the gas cap to ensure it is not damaged, loose or missing to prevent gas from spilling or evaporating. Don’t neglect the exterior. When washing the outside, make sure to include the tires and wheels and the underside and fenders to eliminate any road salt or grime. The body of the vehicle should be washed using a product sold specifically for cars. Wax your vehicle every six months. To learn more about how to care for your vehicle, and for a free copy of the popular Car Care Guide, visit www.carcare.org.

Add Family Fun to Chores

When school is in session and just getting out the door is an accomplishment, having go-to routines can help make ordinary activities more exciting for the entire family. However, if you encounter resistance to everyday household tasks, you may just need a simple revamp to make activities more entertaining and engaging. Refresh your family routines with these ideas designed to create more willing participants: Trash duty No one likes taking out the trash, Page 16

but with a nudge, even little helpers can find fun in this mundane chore. Ask for help sorting materials in the recycle bin for an educational chance to throw things without getting into trouble. Or try timing how long it takes to gather trash from the bedrooms or bathrooms, and set a goal to break that record next week. Personal care Getting kids to brush not once but twice a day can be an onerous endeavor, but making the activity silly may be just the answer. The “Silly Brushing Song” is a fun, interactive

The Ladera Ranch News

music video and tool for parents that Tom’s of Maine created in partnership with children’s singer and songwriter Laurie Berkner to help get kids brushing for a full two minutes, twice a day, as recommended by the American Dental Association. For a winning combination, add Tom’s of Maine Silly Strawberry toothpaste, the No. 1 natural children’s toothpaste according to SPINS, a provider of retail consumer insights for natural, organic and specialty products. Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the toothpaste is made for kids ages 2-6 with natural ingredients including real strawberry extract and no artificial flavors, dyes or sweeteners. Learn more at tomsofmaine.com. Yard work Tools made for pint-sized helpers can make all the difference in getting junior gardeners on board. So can setting small, attainable goals so they can celebrate a sense of accomplishment. Try designating a flower bed to get rid of leaves or a section of the yard that needs sticks removed. Be sure to demonstrate proper techniques and give frequent

praise for a job well done. Clean-up time It’s no secret that kids can destroy a room in minutes, especially when it’s a room filled with their favorite toys. When it comes to cleaning up, all that mess can be overwhelming. Look for ways to make the chore more manageable, such as picking up all the cars and trucks first then the building blocks next, for example. Sing songs while you work to help make the time go faster. Pet care For many households, pets are not only beloved members of the family, they’re living, breathing lessons in responsibility. Once the novelty of a new animal wears off, however, so can the excitement of feeding and walking. A simple sticker chart can be a hands-on and effective way to remind kids that this is a chore that needs to be completed every single day. Plus, pet care can be a fun way to introduce children to the importance of responsibilities and becoming a “big kid.” For added fun, make your own stickers using funny photos of your family pets.
