We have a new pope! Pope Francis White smoke: new Pope elected in Conclave It’s official: white smoke pouring out of the Sistine Chapel chimney signals that we have a new Pope! The billowing white smoke began spilling out of the chimney at approximately 7:06 p.m. local time, indicating the Cardinals had reached consensus on a candidate in the second round of balloting Wednesday afternoon. This means that at least two thirds, or 77 of the 115 cardinals gathered in conclave since Tuesday afternoon are united in their support for the candidate who has now become the 265th successor of St Peter. As the cheering crowds waited eagerly in St Peter’s Square, the new pontiff changed into the traditional white vestments in what is called the Room of Tears. After that, he returned to the Sistine Chapel where each of the Cardinal electors knealt to offer a sign of homage and obedience to their new Holy Father. Following that ritual, the new Pope moved to the Pauline Chapel to pray in front of the Blessed Sacrament. Shortly after that, the senior cardinal deacon, French Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran appeared between the red curtains
of the central balcony on St Peter’s Basilica to proclaim the famous Latin words ‘Habemus Papam’, revealing the identity of the new pontiff and the name that he has chosen. A moment later, the Pope came out onto that balcony to greet the crowds and to give his first ‘Urbi et Orbi’ blessing to the city of Rome and to the world. CARDINAL JORGE MARIO BERGOGLIO: Bergoglio, 76, has spent nearly his entire career at home in Argentina, overseeing churches and shoe-leather priests. The archbishop of Buenos Aires reportedly got the second-most votes after Joseph Ratzinger in the 2005 papal election, and he has long specialized in the kind of pastoral work that some say is an essential skill for the next pope. In a lifetime of teaching and leading priests in Latin America, which has the largest share of the world’s Catholics, Bergoglio has shown a keen political sensibility as well as the kind of self-effacing humility that fellow cardinals value highly. Bergoglio is known for modernizing an Argentine church that had been among the most conservative in Latin America. Bergoglio, 76, reportedly got the

In a lifetime of teaching and leading priests in Latin America, which has the largest share of the world’s Catholics, Bergoglio has shown a keen political sensibility as well as the kind of self-effacing humility that fellow cardinals value highly, says his official biographer, Sergio Rubin. Bergoglio would likely encourage the church’s 400,000 priests to hit the
streets to capture more souls, Rubin said in an Associated Press interview. He is also most comfortable taking a low profile, and his personal style is the antithesis of Vatican splendor. “It’s a very curious thing: When bishops meet, he always wants to sit in the back rows. This sense of humility is very well seen in Rome,” Rubin said. Bergoglio is known for modernizing an Argentine church that had been among the most conservative in Latin America.

The views and opinions expressed are those of the publisher and not any organization. No reproduction, in whole or in part is permitted without the express written permission of Ladera Ranch News. Legal Advertising: The Ladera Ranch News was adjudicated by the Orange County Superior Court as a newspaper of general circulation pursuant to Government Code 6000 case #A227454 on December 30, 2004 and as such is the appropriate newspaper to place legal and public notices for the South Orange County Judicial District and the community of Ladera Ranch..
Pacific Chorale has named Elizabeth Pearson, a veteran Orange County marketer and fundraiser, as the new Chief Executive for the organization. Pearson will be assuming the role that was recently vacated by the Chorale’s previous President, Kelly Ruggirello, when she stepped down to become the Executive Director of the Long Beach Symphony Orchestra. “After an extensive search, we are delighted to have been able to recruit Elizabeth,” said Martin Hubbard, Chairman of the Pacific Chorale Board of Directors. “We believe she will be able to create a greater awareness of our organization and help us attract new audiences who will delight in our classical choral music performances.” Pearson, who joins the 45-yearold non-profit after having served as the Director of Development for the Laguna Playhouse, stated, “This is an exciting move for me. As someone who appreciates classical music, I am looking forward to building greater support for this internationally renowned organization. I believe this presents a growth opportunity both for the Chorale and for me.” Bringing over ten years of fundraising experience and over twenty years of marketing experience to Pacific Chorale, Pearson previously owned a consultancy business specializing in marketing, PR and fundraising for fifteen years. She served as the Foundation Executive Director and Marketing Director of South Coast Medical Center and helped to raise funds as a consultant for numerous Orange County organizations including
the Rancho Santa Margarita Community Center, the Laguna Beach Boys and Girls Club, the Laguna Beach Seniors, and the Laguna Plein Air Painters Association. Elizabeth is also a current member of the Laguna Beach City Council and has served as a three-time Mayor for the City. She is known in her community as being a strong advocate for the arts, serving currently on both the Laguna Beach Live! and Laguna Plein Air Painters Association Board of Trustees — and previously on the Board of the Laguna Art Museum. She graduated Cum Laude with a B.A. in Business Administration from Baldwin Wallace College
(Cleveland, Ohio) with a Major in Marketing. Pacific Chorale Artistic Director John Alexander added, “In my first meeting with Elizabeth a few weeks ago, I was thrilled to discover an energetic, exciting, and charismatic personality with all of the traits of a highly successful leader. Her extensive experience in administrative leadership, fundraising and marketing, is a perfect match for the needs of our organization at this time. I very much look forward to beginning our work together to further the artistic mission of Pacific Chorale, and bringing the organization to an exciting new level in our evolution.”

Lost dog is reunited with family A dog was recently reunited with her family after spending roughly five months surviving along the Oso Creek Trail. Maya, a golden retriever/Germanshepherd mix, was spotted by a resident who called Mission Viejo Animal Services Center to report the stray dog. “The resident said the dog looked healthy yet skittish and thought she was just someone’s pet who had gotten out of the yard and that she would find her way back home,” said Gail DeYoung, Mission Viejo animal services manager. “However, as time went on and the dog’s visits continued, the resident realized that she was losing a lot of weight and decided to call Animal Services for help. One of our officers went directly out to the house to assess the situation and soon realized that this dog would not easily be caught, so the decision was made to put some good food in a humane trap and hope for the best.” The plan worked and the next day the beautiful dog was brought to the shelter where she began to enjoy regular meals and attention from staff. While checking the lost-and-found book for any dog that might match Maya’s description, a shelter employee found an entry describing a skittish golden retriever-mix dog with black markings. The dog had been missing since Oct. 17, 2012. After checking a map, the employee realized that the dog’s home was located directly across from Oso Creek Trail. James Ohnemus, the owner, was called and told that a dog matching Maya’s description had been located. The Ohnemus family moved here fromArizona last October so Maya was completely unfamiliar with the area. One morning she got out of the backyard and was never found. “After searching for Maya for two months, we sort of gave up hope,” said James Ohnemus. That all changed when Ohnemus, his wife and two kids rushed to the shelter on Hillcrest to see the dog who had been trapped the day before. jFor more information about the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center, call 949-4703045 or visit cmvas.org.

Once he has exhausted some of his energy, Bubba is extremely affectionate and a cute cuddle bug. He will make a wonderful companion for any family lucky enough to adopt him!

LocaL DenTisT Dr. MichaeL Tessier shoWs paTienTs hoW To enJoy Their DonuTs anD sTiLL Keep Their TeeTh anD guMs in gooD shape “Everyone past the age of ten already knows that the residues from donuts, cakes, candies and those sugary drinks are going to be on the teeth all day, making cavities” says popular local dentist Dr. Michael Tessier .But rather than giving his patients along lecture and wagging his finger at them ,the good doctor often surprises them by offering them yet another sweet treat, saying “Here, try this instead .At my office, we also have a Tic-Tac- like sucky candy that is sweetened with xylitol, which coats the tooth surfaces with a decay-resistant biofilm. We highly recommend that for our patients going through orthodontic tooth straightening, or for anyone who is genetically pre-disposed to tooth decay.” Dr. Tessier adds; “Most people with busy lives find choosing the very best nutritious food is hard to do and sometimes we give in to the temptation of enjoying a doughnut instead of an apple or more nutritious fruit. Treating tooth decay today is nowhere near as onerous as it was when I was a kid. Most cavities can be filled using modern 21st century technology rather than the dreaded drill. Here in my dental office in Rancho Santa Margarita I use a laser! It quickly delivers a small, concentrated amount of energy to a very specific localized area in the space of a few minute visits; the patient is free of pain. Modern technology at its best! Regular visits to the dental office for tooth cleaning and routine inspections will prevent serious conditions from developing in your mouth and guarantee a long and happy relationship with your teeth. If you sometimes give in to a sweet-tooth temptation, don’t worry. For Tessier and his team of happy dental assistants are always there to save the day! As Dr. Tessier says,” I’m a Grandpa, and it is my duty, my prerogative to take my little guys out for a do-nut on occasion. But only on the weekend and only when they’ve also had something nutritious to eat. Please call my office at (949)-459-7212. If you need more information on this subject, or need to make an appointment. Dr. Michael Tessier’s Office is located at 28562 Oso at the intersection of Oso and Antonio parkway down the walkway from Starbucks and the do-nut shop- how ironic.

Bathgate Elementary students celebrate Read Across America in honor of Dr. Seuss’s B-day Bathgate students joined millions of people across the country to celebrate their love of reading during the annual Read Across America event. It is a reading awarness program, created by National Education Association, in honor of Dr. Seuss’s Birthday (March 2nd). The school enjoyed a week of fun and educatonal themed activities: Crazy Hat Day, Funky Socks Day, Wacky Wednesday, Pajama Day and Red & White Day, paying homage to Dr. Seuss’s literary work. On Thursday, Bathgate’s Recycle Day, students and parents kept recycling in honor of The Lorax (who is about environmental awarness). For every bag of recycleables that students brought, they received prizes, donated by the Mission Viejo City and YMCA. The teachers incorporated Dr. Seuss into their lesson plans and invited parents and grandparents as Guest Readers to their classrooms. Also, Principal Shelly Kurtz, aka “Cat in the Hat” went from class to class to read Dr. Seuss books. The excitement did not stop during school hours; Bathgate teacher and storyteller, Debra Weller, hosted a Famiy Night - “Dr. Seuss and Friends” storytelling show. The week culminated with a special Flag Ceremony when the kids pledged their Reader’s Oath, welcomed Thing 1 and Thing 2 and a special Guest Reader (teacher Janice Eberhardt dressed as Einstein’s sister). A Book Review Contest
Mrs. Anderson and students celebrating Dr. Seuss’s birthday.
was announced and Chuck E. Cheese’s (from Laguna Hills) made a surprise visit to the kindergarten classes. Mrs. Burgess, a kindergarten teacher, read “If You Give a Mouse A Cookie”, while the kids listened attentively and Chuck E. Cheese’s handed out FREE
coupons. The message of this nation-wide program is that READING is FUN and to quote Dr. Seuss “The more that you read, the more things you’ll know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go”. Happy Reading!

United Cerebral Palsy Benefits from Psi Delta Sigma Fashion Show and Sea & Sky Guild Casino Royale Fundraisers Celebrating its 60th year of serving Orange County children with disabilities, United Cerebral Palsy of Orange County (UCP-OC) was the fortunate beneficiary of two recent special fundraising events. The Beta Lambda and Beta Chi Chapters of Psi Delta Sigma presented their th 6 annual Have a Heart Fashion Show & Boutique fundraiser on March 2 which netted $20,000 for the nonprofit that serves nearly 4,000 families challenged by special needs. Co-chaired by Psi Delta Sigma members Cathy Lagoe and Ellie Carlile, the lovely afternoon affair was held at Embassy Suites Brea beginning with a boutique which included variety clothing, jewelry, accessories and home product vendors. After shopping, guests made their way into the hotel ballroom for a delightful luncheon followed by an exclusive JOCKEY Person to person fashion show. Led by JOCKEY Person to person representative Marijane Relth, the fashion show featured volunteer models from Psi Delta Sigma sorority and friends wearing the company’s beautiful, on-trend and unbelievably versatile fashions in the season’s latest colors. Key committee members included vendor chair Kelly Barbera, silent auction chair Sheryl Jimerson and Sharon Barrett, the historian for the organization and finance chair. The sorority has supported United Cerebral Palsy for over a half a century and since 1968, the Beta Lambda & Beta Chi Chapters of Psi Delta Sigma have raised over $2 million for the southern California United Cerebral Palsy organizations. The Sea and Sky Guild of United Cerebral Palsy of Orange County raised nearly $70,000 at their glitzy Evening in Monte Carlo Casino Royale fundraiser on March 9 at Crevier Classic Cars in Costa Mesa. The evening highlight was honoring Afshin Aminian, M.D. with the organization’s Humanitarian Award. Dr. Aminian is the Medical Director CHOC Children’s Orthopaedic Institute and an internationally renowned pediatric orthopaedic surgeon who offers invaluable medical expertise and support to children with disabilities at UCP-OC. Event chair and Sea & Sky president Linda Beresford said, “The guild was extremely proud to acknowledge Dr. Afshin Aminian for his dedication and commitment to helping children with cerebral palsy and other disabilities which demonstrates exactly what our guild supports.” Set among 25,000 square feet of premier classic and exotic cars, the evening began with a champagne cocktail hour and expansive silent auction among the ritz and glitz of the Monte Carlo themed décor and incredible collection of rare cars and memorabilia. As the evening progressed, guests joined lively casino games of black jack, poker, craps, Texas hold-em’. Angels Chairman of the Board Dennis Kuhl served as one of the evening’s celebrity dealers. Above All Catering provided various gourmet food stations including appetizers, mini gourmet burgers, noodle bar and desserts. A live auction followed the moving presentation by Sea & Sky Guild president Linda Beresford to Dr. Afshin Aminian. After a short video, United Cerebral Palsy client Leo Kobayashi then shared his passion for the organization and the message to “never give up on your dreams.” The Sea & Sky Guild is a women’s guild of United Cerebral Palsy of Orange County that coordinates an annual fundraising event supporting the Sea & Sky Therapy Scholarship Fund for continued therapy for families beyond the limits of government funded therapy contracts or private insurance. United Cerebral Palsy of Orange County provides vital services that support families of children with disabilities to improve individual well-being from birth through early adulthood. For more than a half a century, United Cerebral Palsy has helped children with a wide range of disabilities to lead a Life Without Limits and achieve their full potential and inclusion into society at all levels. For more information about UCP-OC, call 949.333.6401 or visit www.ucp-oc.org.

Volunteering During Spring Break
By Jessica Rodriguez More and more altruistic college students are trading jello shots in Cancun for volunteer work. Many nonprofit groups offer a volunteer holiday for individuals, groups and family. This allows the busy college student, without much time to spare, to experience a foreign country while doing something for a worthy cause. Volunteer opportunities are as wide ranging and diverse as the volunteers. Teaching English, construction and community development, beach renovation, childcare, teaching children how to read, and stopping poaching are just some of the volunteer opportunities available. Volunteer holidays are available in just about Page 12
any place you can think of, from South America, Kenya, Thailand, Greece, and Haiti. Besides doing something good for someone else, the volunteer gets a lot from an alternative spring break. The ability to see a foreign country and meet people is a huge benefit. You can learn a lot through the training and hands on experience. You can check with your college to see if they can give college credit for you volunteer experience. You will have something to put on resumes, scholarship forms and future college applications.

Sawdust’s Inaugural “Sustain Local Art and Cuisine” Was a Sold Out Success The Sawdust Art Festival completed its first-ever “Sustain Local Art and Cuisine” fundraising event Sunday, March 10 from 3-7 pm at the Sawdust grounds, in partnership with local restaurant 370 Common. The sold out event filled 50 seats with guests at the family-style dining table. Guests enjoyed a quaint evening filled with sustainable gourmet food, donated artwork, live art demonstrations, and the music of Jason Feddy and his bassist Alan Deremo and drummer Ray Weston. Guests purchased $4,000 worth of artwork Sunday evening and the moneys raised by putting on the special event will benefit the Sawdust Art Education Fund and will be directly utilized in the creation of a 15-minute educational artist video. The artist video project will continue a series of important documentaries the Sawdust had to put on hold due to lack of funding in 2009. The inaugural fundraising event was such a success, there are already plans of doubling next year’s event size, opening the seats offered to 100 guests. An enjoyable evening was had by all, with water poured
into glasses made by Muffin Spencer-Devlin, spring salad served in bowls made by Christopher Jeffries, Maggie Spencer and Dawn Spurlock, and strawberry shortcake served in dessert bowls made by Suzanne Esko and Siân Poeschl. Among those artists that contributed dining ware are: Sherry Bullard, John Eagle, Suzanne Esko, Rachel Goberman, Charleine Guy, Gavin Heath, Christopher Jeffries, James Koch, James Lashley, Bette McIntire, Jason McQuaid, Nadine Nordstrom, Siân and Troy Poeschl, Jan Sattler, Julie Setterholm, Jane and Patty Slowsky, Maggie Spencer, Muffin Spencer-Devlin, Dawn Spurlock, Sue Thompson and Mark Winner. The Sawdust Art Festival is located at 935 Laguna Canyon Road. The Sawdust Art Festival is a non-profit art organization dedicated to educating the public and promoting the art created in Laguna Beach. Two-hour Sawdust Studio Art Classes are of-
fered every Friday and Saturday at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on the Sawdust Art Festival Grounds. To check out more details about the Sawdust Art Festival and other upcoming events and festivals, please navigate to www.sawdustartfestival.org or call 949-494-3030.

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
