California Festival of Speed: Largest Porsche Event in the Southwest The 13th running of the California Festival of Speed is fast approaching! This Porsche Club of America event is the largest Porsche event in the Southwest. At its core, the Festival is a PCA Club Race, however, this weekend features something for everyone. Autocross, Concours, Time Trial, Pirelli Cup Racing, Parade Laps, Porsche Corral and super car displays and a hospitality area featuring a vendor row, food court, goodie store and more. The 13th running of the California Festival of Speed is fast approaching! Hosted by Zone 8 of the Porsche Club of America, this event will take place April 4-6 at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, CA. The Festival is the largest Porsche event in the Southwest. At its core, the Festival is a PCA Club Race, which is amateur racing at its best. This sport sees Porsches old and new out on the track for a weekend of exciting wheel-towheel action. Of course, even more important than having fun, safety is the primary goal as nobody has corporate sponsors bankrolling them or their cars. Everybody wants to go home in one piece, with the only hits being taken by bruised egos. Much more than a club race, however, this weekend features something for everyone. Autocross, Page 4

Concours, Time Trial, Pirelli Cup Racing, Parade Laps, Porsche Corral and a hospitality area featuring a vendor row and goodie store and more. This is a festival because it has something for everybody! At the Festival the autocross isn’t intended to be a normal competitive event. Rather, the goal is to try to capture the attention of those that won’t normally seek out a performance driving event. Maybe, just maybe, they’ll get caught up in the excitement of the races and be willing to give it a try themselves. From there, who knows? There are plenty of autocross events throughout Zone 8 waiting for them should they catch the bug from this “taste of autocross.” The Time Trial is the perfect breeding ground for future club racers, and a great stepping stone up from Autocross. This event emphasizes learning how to deal with traffic (in addition to car control). Their final racing event is the Pirelli Cup racing team. This group of award winning pros always join for a few sessions each day to practice for their upcoming series events; which certainly contributes to the excitement of the weekend. For those that aren’t driving, the center of activity is vendor row. They feature dozens of vendors that specialize in products for your

The Ladera Ranch News

Porsche and more, as well as a food court of LA food trucks. Surrounding vendor row will be several car displays. On Saturday they feature the Porsche Timeline, a car show that this year will feature a display of the four and eight cylinder Porsches that have produced over the years. Next to the timeline will be a Concours, where the Porsches will be judged and their owners rewarded for their efforts in the cleanliness and preparation of their vehicles. On Sunday they will have a Supercar Paddock which will feature exotic and rare cars of all types. During the lunch break each day, the track will be open for Parade laps.

For a small fee you too can see the track from the racers point of view, imagining the excitement as you take your car through the twists and turns of the track. Plenty of parking is available each day so don’t be afraid to come down to the California Festival of Speed. Saturday is Porsche Corral day, where attendees bringing Porsches will be parked according to model. Sunday is Car Club day, where participating car clubs will each have their own parking area available.

8 Tips for Pet Parents on Suitable Etiquette for Pets

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..

1. Keep barking under control: The pet parent with the barking dog is most likely not the most popular neighbor. Although barking is not always preventable, ensure pets receive proper training so they don’t bark incessantly. Avoid leaving dogs alone for long periods of time, especially outdoors. Making sure pets have enough exercise and plenty of toys to provide mental stimulation will help curb barking. For tips and tricks, consult one of Petco’s Positive Dog Trainers. All Petco dog trainers are certified in AKC Canine Good Citizen and STARR Puppy testing. The AKC STARR Puppy training is designed to get dog owners and their puppies off to a good start. The AKC Canine Good Citizen certification is a widelyrecognized high standard of polite behavior and excellent preparation for therapy dog training. Each dog who completes these courses will receive a certificate from the American Kennel Club. 2. Don’t let cats wander: Although cats can exhibit very independent behavior, the outdoor cat that is always wandering into their neighbor’s yard, may not be welcomed with open arms. Keep cats from visiting the family next door by providing them a cozy space inside the home with enough toys to keep them mentally stimulated throughout the day. Petco’s Playscapes Modular Cat Furniture will ensure cats can satisfy their need for exploration and climbing without wanting to leave the house. 3. Keep the hair and smell at bay: When dining out with pets, ensure dogs are properly groomed to keep

shedding to a minimum. A smelly dog shedding its winter coat is never pleasant near food so bathe pets regularly and use a shed control shampoo. When entertaining at home, make sure guests want to return by removing pet hair from furniture and smelling of the animal. Be sure the cat’s litter box is scooped daily and use an odor absorbent litter such as Petco Dual Odor Guard Scoopable Cat Litter. Keep small animal and reptile habitats clean and use potty pads, like Four Paws Wee Wee pads to help cut down on guests stepping in a new puppy’s “accident.” 4. Clean up waste: Walking into the front yard and stepping in a pile of poop from a neighbor’s dog can be upsetting. It may sound simple, but be sure to pick up waste when walking a dog. Products, like the eco-friendly Earth Rated Poop Bags, easily hook to the dog’s leash making it simple to carry along on a walk. 5. Obey the rules: Keep dogs leashed at all times while at parks and in other dog-friendly public places. Excited dogs who are off-leash may run and jump on people or children or hurt themselves by running away from their pet parent. Only take a dog off-leash at a dog park that allows it. Remember to obey all marked rules at the dog park and don’t forget to close the gate behind you so other dogs can’t escape. 6. Positive reinforcement is key: Barking orders is not the way to encourage a pet to behave, especially when it is done in public. Disciplining pets in front of others can make people uncomfortable. Instead, train pets by reinforcing good behavior

with loving attention or a treat. Keep a calm tone and never raise your voice, especially when in public. 7. Use table manners: Petco understands that pet parents love their animals, but others may be uncomfortable when certain people take it to the extreme, especially while at a restaurant. Never feed pets from the pet parent’s lap or plate. Not only can certain people food be dangerous for pets, but this behavior can encourage pets to beg. Always feed pets from their own food bowl away from human consumption. 8. Not everyone loves animals: It may be hard to believe, especially since pets are such a part of family life, but not everyone is an animal lover. Some people may be allergic to dogs or cats and some can even fear animals. To avoid an unpleasant run in, never let pets run up to a stranger. When taking out other types of pets like birds, reptiles or rabbits, keep in mind that others may feel uncomfortable around these animals. On the other hand, these pets may attract more attention since they are not seen in public as often, so keep them safe by always encouraging strangers to ask before petting or handling them.

local dentist dr. Michael tessier reveals source and Cure of Chipping upper Front teeth. A nice lady in her middle 50’s came into the office the other day with a chipped upper front tooth. It turns out that the opposing tooth on the lower arch was Dr. Michael Tessier rotated and a corner of it pushed forward, allowing it to bang against the upper tooth, which caused it to wear away the enamel on the backside of the upper tooth, and ultimately fracture that edge. We had to put a veneer on the front surface of the tooth to restore it to its’ original contour. Then we had to fix the source of the problem. During one’s lifetime, lower teeth migrate toward the front of the mouth, and then towards the center. This happens even if a person had orthodontics as a youngster, and the wisdom teeth really have little effect in crowding the lower front teeth. If the four lower front teeth stay in alignment with each other, they’ll stay straight. But, if the forward migration pressure is too great, they’ll start to rotate or over-lap each other. This has a deleterious effect on the supporting tissues of these teeth because it is harder to keep them clean and decay-free and the gums healthy. It also has a negative impact on the upper front teeth, making them stick out unevenly, or loosen the upper front teeth, predisposing them to premature loss.

Or, the fracturing mentioned above. The solution is to minimally, imperceptibly (0.25mm per side per tooth) reduce the width of each of the lower front teeth, then de-rotating them (realigning or straightening them) into the newly created space, so that they end up being out of harm’s way. This is an ideal application for Invisalign, the series of computer-generated aligners that orthodontically reposition teeth, invisibly. If the upper teeth are also crowded, our invisible alignment procedure called Invisalign will work to straighten them out, too.Some people may think that nobody sees the lower front teeth, so their alignment isn’t critically important. It turns out, that’s not the case. We need to keep all the teeth healthy and functional. I personally don’t think that everyone’s teeth have to perfectly straight. But, in my forty years (ouch) in the dental field, I’ve met many people who are reluctant to smile because they think their teeth are unsightly. Next time you’re close to a mirror, like when you’re looking to see that you got your teeth clean while brushing, check out your lower front teeth. If they’re crooked, call me. Or, if the edges of your upper front teeth are chipping, even barely noticeably, call me. Dr. Michael Tessier’s office is located at 28562 Oso Parkway, at the intersection of Oso and Antonio Parkways (down the walk from the car wash). Consultation appointments are always complimentary. His telephone number is 949-459-7212.

INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR SARAH CHANG SHINES WITH BRILLIANCE WHEN SHE JOINS PACIFIC SYMPHONY Gleaming with glamour and virtuosity, Sarah Chang, one of the world’s foremost violinists, returns to Pacific Symphony to perform Jean Sibelius’ Violin Concerto, which takes full advantage of the violin’s expressive range, from the rippling high chords to the growling alto notes. With an international career that spans more than two decades, Chang, the “thrill seeker” who made Mendelssohn “sizzle” (Orange County Register) when she opened the Symphony’s 2011-12 season enthralls once again—this time alongside guest conductor Tito Muñoz. Opening the concert and having its West Coast premiere is a sensuous work by Adam Schoenberg, “Finding Rothko” (2006). Inspired by four bold paintings by American Abstract Impressionist painter Mark Rothko, the work is a musical depiction of the emotions Schoenberg felt embodied in each of thepaintings.Embrace art, music and mastery at “Sarah Chang Plays Sibelius” Thursday through Saturday, April 10-12, at 8 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. Tickets are $25-$99. For more information or to purchase

tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org. “The Sibelius concerto is one of my favorite violin concertos, and I say this as a violinistmyself,” says Maestro Muñoz. “I also have known of Sarah Chang since I started learning music,so it will be a thrill to work with her for the first time in these concerts.” The Symphony opens the evening with a work by Schoenberg, whose music has an ability to create “mystery and sensuality” (The New York Times), and has been called “open, boldand optimistic” (Atlanta JournalConstitution). The four movements, based on Rothko’s paintings, are played without interruption, flowing from the sunny heights of “Orange” and “Yellow” to the deep and mysterious tones of “Red” and “Wine.” The night swings into a close with the cheerful rhythms of Symphony No. 8, abundant in the folk music of composer Dvořák’snative Bohemia. Full of energy, the symphony toys with woodwinds in the opening, reflects on the joys and sorrows of country life in the second movemennt, transitions to a lusciously scored waltz in the third and uses a trumpet fanfare in

the finale. “I think that Dvořák may actually have had a very indirect influence on Adam’s work,” says Muñoz. “Since her debut with the New York Philharmonic at the age of 8, Chang has performed with some of the most esteemed orchestras, conductors and accompanists worldwide. Her most recent recording for EMI Classics— her 20th for the label—featured the Brahms and Bruch violin concertos with Kurt Masur and the Dresdner Philharmonie, and received excellent critical and popular acclaim. In 2006, Chang was honored as one of 20 top women in Newsweek magazine’s “Women and Leadership, 20 Powerful Women Take Charge”

issue. In 2008, she washonored as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. In 2012, she received the Harvard University Leadership Award and in 2005, Yale University dedicated a chair in SpragueHall in her name. In 2011, she was named an official artistic ambassador by the United States Embassy, and hhas since traveled the world to connect audiences through what she says is the “one and only universal language”— music.“Chang is a complete package as a player—technically assured, colorfully expansive, subtly probing, boldly commanding.” — Grand Rapids Press

Creating a pollinator-friendly habitat in your backyard Pollinators such as bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, bats and beetles play an important role in producing healthy plants and food for people and wildlife. Without pollinators feeding on nectar and moving pollen from one flower to the next, most plants would not produce fruit or seeds. You can attract pollinators to your lawn and garden by following these

steps to create a pollinator-friendly backyard habitat. * Grow a diverse assortment of trees, shrubs and flowers. Place water sources throughout your lawn and garden to draw a variety of pollinators to your yard, while providing them with food and sheltered nesting areas. * Add color to your backyard. Each

pollinator is drawn to specific plants based on its size, shape, color and scent. Bees are attracted to yellow and blue flowers, as well as fruit and nut trees with strong fragrances. Hummingbirds prefer large red or orange tubular flowers with no odor. * Select flowering plants that bloom at different times to provide nectar sources throughout the growing

season. Place plants in clumps to supply large areas of color and coverage that attracts pollinators. * Choose plants native to your area to encourage healthy pollination activity. In the South, flowers from mint, oregano, lavender and other herbs attract bees, while pink azaleas and coral honeysuckle vines entice hummingbirds into your yard. In the Northwest, birds are drawn to flowering grape holly shrub and blue columbine flowers will draw butterflies into your outdoor space. Pay attention to how you apply lawn and garden products. “When using insecticides, carefully read and follow label directions to protect pollinators,” says Aaron Hobbs, president of RISE (Responsible Industry for a Sound Environment) a national organization representing the manufacturers, formulators and distributors of pesticide and fertilizer products. Pollinators are as essential as sunlight and water in the production of flowering plants, many of which are important food sources. Support your backyard ecosystem while attracting pollinator populations and surrounding your home with colorful arrays of native plants.

Get a jumpstart on digital spring cleaning by tackling an overloaded inbox If you spring clean your home every year, you might want to consider an often forgotten and usually cluttered space - your email. Your digital world can get just as messy as any other area of the home with all the photos, emails and documents you’re creating and storing. Your inbox is a great place to tackle first considering the average person will receive more than 10,000 emails this year, according to The Radicati Group, Inc. According to Outlook.com, 80 percent of the average inbox is commercial mail, such as newsletter and daily deals. All those emails could take hours to sort; however, with a few email tools, you can easily, and quickly, unclutter and organize your inbox. Try the following tools to make your email spring cleaning easier: * Mass delete unwanted emails. The first step most users take when cleaning their Inbox is to get rid of emails that they don’t want. For these emails, features like Sweep in Outlook.com allow users to easily delete (and, if you want, block) emails in bulk by deleting a large number of emails from certain senders, keeping only the latest and most relevant messages. You can even schedule a Page 14

cleanup, saving you time in the future. This comes in handy when you want to clean up all of those newsletters or daily deals. In fact, the sweep feature helps Outlook.com users move or delete 7.5 million emails every week. * Categorize emails, making it easier to access when needed. By creating categories based on topics that commonly appear in your inbox such as coupons, calendar related activities or personal conversations, you can then archive email to keep yourself organized and find emails quickly. * Create folders so you can automatically file away emails and easily find in the future. You can take this a step further and let your email service do the work for you by creating rules that move email to folders as soon as they hit your inbox. * Set up actions to help you review all your emails quickly. Once you’ve uncluttered your inbox, tools like Outlook.com’s Instant Actions allow users to focus on important emails by quickly accomplishing the most common inbox tasks such as delete, flag and mark emails as unread without having to actually open an email and read it. * Leverage your email to stay

The Ladera Ranch News

connected in other ways. Connect your email to Skype, Facebook, Twitter and other social chat tools. In addition, when you connect other services, some email services automatically update contact information for your

people so they’re always up-to-date. Once you have your inbox spring cleaning accomplished you can get back to using email as a personal and productive tool rather than viewing it as a chore.

Reclaiming California’s Diversity

HAPPY GRAPES

By David White If you ask a typical wine consumer to imagine a California red, they’ll almost certainly think of Cabernet Sauvignon. If you ask that same consumer to imagine a white, they’ll almost certainly think of Chardonnay. This is understandable. More than 500,000 acres of California farmland are dedicated to wine grapes, and Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay are the most widely planted. More than a quarter of the state’s red wine grape plantings are Cabernet Sauvignon. And more than half of all white wine grape plantings are Chardonnay. Once upon a time, however, California’s landscape was much more diverse. And thanks to a group of renegade vintners, California is reclaiming this diversity -- and producing more and more wines that are reminiscent of a bygone era. Page 16

The dominance of Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay partly traces back to 1976. That year, a British wine merchant named Steven Spurrier organized a wine competition in Paris, where he pitted California’s best Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon against the best wines that France had to offer. Until then, few critics took California seriously. And at that tasting, everyone assumed that France would win. But with both whites and reds, California came out on top. That competition -- now known as the “Judgment of Paris” -- transformed California’s wine industry. The red, produced by Warren Winiarski at Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars, helped accelerate Robert Mondavi’s efforts to tout California’s wines as being on par with Europe’s best offerings. The white, produced by Mike Grgich at Chateau Montelena, forced the world to take a serious look at California Chardonnay. When KendallJackson produced a Chardonnay with just a hint of sweetness a few years later, the variety’s popularity would skyrocket with consumers. Over the subsequent two decades, those who marketed wine pushed other varietal wines like Merlot, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. But Cabernet and Chardonnay were cemented at the top.

The Ladera Ranch News

For most of California’s winegrowing history, however, vineyards were planted chaotically with inexpensive, workhorse grapes. Americans didn’t care about varieties and drank simple table. While most were consumed locally, products like Gallo’s Hearty Burgundy and Almaden’s Mountain Chablis approximated these wines and had national distribution. Today, several California vintners are rediscovering these ancient vineyards and recognizing their potential. This effort is led by Tegan Passalacqua of Turley Wine Cellars and Morgan Twain-Peterson of Bedrock Wine Co., two young producers who have earned a reputation for crafting delicious wines from old vineyards. Three years ago, the two men helped launched the Historic Vineyard Society, a nonprofit created to catalog, protect, and promote these properties. Turley’s Library Vineyard Petite Sirah is a great example of the wines this group celebrates. The Library Vineyard was planted between 1880 and 1920 directly behind the St. Helena Public Library in Napa Valley. Although planted primarily to Petite Sirah, the small vineyard is comprised of more than a dozen different varieties, including red grapes like Syrah, Carignan, Grenache, and Zinfandel and white grapes like Muscadelle and Green Hungarian.

From this vineyard, Passalacqua makes a delightful field blend that speaks clearly of its origin. Bedrock’s Compagni Portis white is another great example. Sourced from a Sonoma vineyard planted in 1954, the wine is a blend of Gewurtzraminer, Trousseau Gris, Riesling, and a handful of unusual grapes that are almost extinct. It’s exotic, exceptionally aromatic, and totally unique. Passalacqua and Twain-Peterson are hardly alone. California producers like Carlisle, Arnot-Roberts, Forlorn Hope, and Wind Gap are also creating high quality wines from historic properties. While some make field blends, others produce single varietal wines from nearly forgotten grapes in almost-forgotten vineyards. In late February, a group of wine writers from across the country gathered in California for a conference. During a discussion about Napa Valley’s “unexpected” wines, New York Times wine critic Eric Asimov reminded attendees of California’s “history of diversity” with Turley’s Library Vineyard Petite Sirah. Wines like this are still just asterisks, of course. They’re jewels of an earlier time. But they show that there’s more to California than Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.

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.

Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein.
