Have Some Fun with Great Flavors You don’t have to be a gourmet chef to add great flavor to your favorite recipes. In fact, you probably already have what you need in your pantry to make something that will excite your taste buds. The trick is to find new ways to use familiar ingredients – such as using flavored potato chips as a crunchy breading for baked fish or chicken. If you’re ready to have fun with flavor, here are a few other easy ideas: Herbed Salts: Mixing some of your favorite herbs in with salt adds a whole new dimension of flavor to your dish. Combine 1/2 cup of coarse sea salt with your favorite combination of herbs, such as whole dried rosemary and dried thyme; cumin seeds, coriander seeds and dill seeds; or dried lemon or orange zest and lavender. Put it in a pepper mill and grind as needed. Sweet and Savory Desserts: Make a pound cake with fruity olive oil instead of vegetable oil, or try a chocolate chip cookie recipe with a little smoky bacon mixed in. Serve strawberries and balsamic vinegar over ice cream, or try some sharp cheddar cheese melted over a sweet apple pie. How about a Mexican-inspired chocolate pudding with a pinch of chili powder? Snacks and Appetizers: Mix things up for some easy, no-cook eats like watermelon slices with chunks of feta cheese; hummus and red grapes; or popcorn with smoked almonds and chocolate chips. Garden Tomato and Basil Soup Makes 4 to 6 servings 1 tablespoon canola oil

1 1/2 cups diced white onions 3 ablespoons fresh garlic, minced 4 cups red tomatoes, roughly chopped 2 14-ounce cans vegetable broth 1/2 c u p t o m a t o p a s t e 3 tablespoons chopped basil Kosher salt to taste Black pepper to taste Juice of 1/2 lemon In saucepan, heat canola oil for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat.

Sauté onions for 4 to 5 minutes, avoiding any browning, then add garlic. Mix together. Add tomatoes, vegetable broth and tomato paste. Bring to boil, then reduce to a simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until tomatoes are soft. Remove soup from heat; add basil and blend in a blender or food processor for 2 to 3 minutes until mixture is smooth. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice and serve immediately.

Whale watching supports Crystal cove alliance Newport Landing Whale Watching proudly supports Crystal Cove Alliance, the Crystal Cove State Park’s non-profit partner (dedicated to education, conservation, and restoration efforts within the State Park and its Marine Protection Areas). A portion of each ticket for Newport Landing Whale Watching goes to support the Crystal Cove Alliance and its many educational and environmental efforts surrounding one of the last pristine coastlines remaining in Southern California. The Crystal Cove Alliance educational efforts include studies in Biology and Marine Sciences including an onsite Park and Marine research facility. Partners with the research facility include the Universities of Irvine, Chapman, Pepperdine, Fullerton, Scripps Institution Of Oceanography, and Stanford to name a few. Other educational efforts include supporting world renowned art hub and its programs, as well as supporting studies with human impact and nature. For more information on the many different programs and activities offered from the Crystal Cove Alliance and State Park. The California coast is home to a diverse array of marine mammal and

bird species, with many easy access points for viewing tours. The coastline sees annual migrations of blue, gray and humpback whales, and nearly year-round sightings of fin and minke whales. A variety of dolphin species, including Risso’s dolphin and killer whales, may also be seen. The gray whale migration lasts from January through May, peaking in March. Humpbacks follow a similar schedule, with numbers of Fin and Blue whales peaking in August. Shorelines and offshore islands provide homes to harbor seals, California sea lions, and sea otters, as well as nesting habitat for a host of marine birds. Terns, gulls, cormorants, pelicans, and puffins occur here. The migratory bird species follow roughly the same seasons as the gray and humpback whales, summering in the arctic and coming south in the winter. Newport Beach is one of the top whale watching and marine mammal viewing destinations in the world and maintaining this unique and flourishing marine environment ensures that future generations may witness these amazing creatures for many years to come. Supporting the Alliance was our thank you for this amazing park system.

YES WE “CAN” END HUNGER IN ORANGE COUNTY The OC Food Bank Works to End Local Hunger during National Hunger Action Month Each September the OC Food Bank, a program of Community Action Partnership of Orange County (CAPOC), marks National Hunger Action Month by mobilizing the community to work together in order end local hunger. Orange County is one of the top 10 counties or metropolitan areas in the entire United States where food insecurity is most rampant for those under the age of 18 - right next to Los Angeles, New York, Houston, and Chicago (PBS NewsHour, Jan. 24, 2014). CAPOC places priorities on becoming California’s leader in eliminating hunger and poverty by providing emergency food assistance to lowincome Orange County residents and works with nearly 400 local charities to feed hungry children, families, seniors, and veterans. After alleviating the fear of hunger for low-income clients, the agency then works to strengthen families by building safe and healthy communities; creating financial stability through savings and tax preparation services; providing energy conservation services; tutoring youth in writing, math, sciences, and the arts; and supporting senior independence in order to create prosperity within Orange County. Get involved in National Hunger Action Month this September by visiting the OC Food Bank’s 7th annual CANstruction event at South Coast Plaza, in conjunction with The Festival of Children. This event raises awareness for childhood hunger and malnutrition by bringing together nineteen local architectural, engineering, planning, and design teams who created phenomenal structures built entirely out of canned food, all of which is donated Page 4

The Ladera Ranch News

to the OC Food Bank at the completion of the exhibition on September 28, 2014. This year’s Best Meal and People’s Choice Award went to Fluor for their ‘Our LEGOcy to Children’ sculpture, which depicts LEGO characters packing canned food in boxes for donation to the OC Food Bank. The structure reflects Fluor’s tradition of engaging and empowering employees to make a difference in their communities. It took 5,258 cans to build this sculpture which will feed approximately 4,381 Orange County children. Join the Committee for Canstruction Orange County on September 16th at 5:30pm to Strut-theStructures in South Coast Plaza, a tour of all 19 structures. They will meet at the Garden Terrace in South Coast Plaza right outside of Macy’s. You can also participate in National Hunger Action Month by volunteering at the OC Food Bank, hosting a canned food drive, donating to the Food Bank in support of this National movement, or by raising awareness for the 16 million American children who go hungry everyday. “The OC Food Bank’s success in creating real change and providing new, innovative ways to serve more people than ever before highlights the positive impact we’ve had helping our neighbors through a variety of financial and personal challenges,” said Buddy Ray, Executive Director for CAPOC. “Community Action Partnership of Orange County helps 48,000 individuals each month change their lives with a variety of programs such as our OC Food Bank, which just celebrated its 35th anniversary and distributes more than 18 million pounds of food annually to feed the hungry.” If you are interested in information on how you

can help end hunger during National Hunger Action Month and feed Orange County’s low-income children, please contact (714) 897-6670 x3404 or mmorrill@capoc.org. Together, we can eliminate hunger and poverty in Orange County. ABOUT THE OC FOOD BANK The OC Food Bank, a program of Community Action Partnership of Orange County (CAPOC), has evolved into Orange County’s most comprehensive hunger-relief organization. Our aim is to make a positive impact in people’s lives by helping them meet basic needs and strengthen their support system. The OC Food Bank serves children, families, seniors, veterans, and disabled individuals. We have a stake in the health of our community and the ability to create real change in the lives of our neighbors. In 2013, CAPOC distributed more than 18 million pounds of food to Orange County residents. In addition to direct support, the OC Food Bank supplies 400 local charities with food. Our Food Bank mobilizes and directs resources to programs that assist, educate, and promote self-sufficiency.

Lunch box 101: 10 nutritious tips and tricks for parents

Lunch box nutrition has come a long way from bologna on white bread with a juice drink pouch. As parents get ready to send their kids back to school, an easy lesson on lunch box nutrition may be just the thing to help kids get to the head of the class. Packing a winning lunch is not only about health and nutrition, but also about keeping food fresh and appetizing for kids. “A nutritious lunch provides important nutrients kids need throughout the day,” says Mona Rosene, registered dietitian with a master of science degree in nutrition, and nutrition research scientist for WhiteWave Foods. “For parents who think packing a balanced and affordable lunch is a chore, a little preparation can go a long way in making lunch box planning a breeze. Parents should focus on fresh foods and be labelconscious. With so many convenient lunch options, it’s important to check labels to avoid products with empty calories and little nutritional value.” For parents on the go and on a budget, here are “Lunch Box 101 Tips & Tricks” from TruMoo Milk Boxes to help make lunchtime less stressful and more nutritious for their kids. 1. Instead of a juice drink pouch, opt for a flavored shelf-stable milk box, which provides all the benefits of milk including 8 grams of protein, vitamins A and D, and calcium, without high fructose corn syrup or any artificial colors or flavors found in many juice drink pouches. TruMoo single serve milk boxes are a great option. They are available in three

flavors kids will love chocolate, vanilla and plain low-fat varieties, and are free of artificial colors and flavors. 2. Try to include at least one item from each of the five food groups: grains, vegetables, fruits, dairy and lean protein, to help ensure a balanced meal. 3. For a time-saver, sandwiches can be prepared the night before. Put sandwiches in reusable sandwich boxes instead of aluminum foil to prevent them from getting crushed or soggy. 4. Bite-sized fruits and vegetables are an easy way to add a nutritious and fun staple to lunch boxes. For picky eaters, a favorite dip like low-fat ranch, peanut butter or hummus can help make sure those fruits and veggies quickly disappear. 5. Choose leaner lunch meats like chicken, turkey and tuna in water, or choose a hard-boiled egg, beans or edamame as great protein alternatives. This way, kids can get protein with less fat and calories. 6. Keep cold food cold and hot food hot - keeping foods at safe temperatures will prevent the growth of unhealthy bacteria. Ice packs and insulated containers are key. 7. Instead of potato chips, try something different with the same amount of satisfying crunch such as:

baby carrots, whole wheat pretzels without salt or baked sweet potato chips. 8. Liven up the lunchbox with fun-shaped sandwich and vegetable cutters. Lunchtime should be fun for kids, and they’ll be thrilled to find a butterfly- or dinosaur-shaped sandwich in their lunch. 9. Use leftovers, but change up the presentation by putting meat on whole wheat bread or pitas with sliced tomato or create a rice bowl with leftover veggies and protein. 10. Variety is key to keeping kids happy at lunchtime. Avoid boredom by offering new meal and snack options daily or weekly.

Care of the “Knocked-Out tooth” It’s summertime. Better weather some how makes more opportunities to knock teeth out. Here’s what to do. If a baby tooth Dr. Michael Tessier gets knocked out, there’s not much that can be done. The adult teeth will be replacing them soon anyway. There are procedures to replace avulsed (knocked out) baby teeth for parents that are interested. It’s more likely that a baby tooth will me knocked way out of alignment, like pushed back into the mouth, but, amazingly, they migrate back to where they belong without any help. When an adult tooth is knocked out, most likely a front tooth because of the shape of the root, the most important factor for healing is immediate (less than five minutes) re-implantation; holding the tooth by the enamel part-the crown, rinse it off, stick it back in the hole, then hold it there until professional help can be contacted. There’s probably already pain, and fear, and bleeding, so any additional discomfort won’t be that noticeable. The first person prepared to re-implant the tooth should do

so- don’t wait for a dentist. Immediate re-implantation is always superior to storage out of the mouth, but if immediate re-implantation is not possible, storage in the patients’ own saliva followed by transfer to cold milk will maintain the root surface cells’ ability to assist healing for up to one hour. Keep the milk (and tooth) cold by packing the milk in ice during storage. Drying of the cells on the root surface drastically reduces their ability to assist healing. Water storage damages root surface cells. Water should only be used to rinse the root before re-implantation. I saw a forty-year-old last week who’d had a tooth re-implanted after it had been knocked out when he was an adolescent, and it was still in place. So, DON’T PANIC- RINSE THE TOOTH OFF, PUT IT BACK IN THE HOLE, HOLD IT IN PLACE, THEN SEE THE DENTIST. My office is located at Oso and Marguerite Parkways, down the walk from the carwash and Starbucks. My phone number is 949-459-7212. Don’t hesitate to call if you need immediate assistance, even on the weekends. Or, call if you have any questions. It’s always easier to treat any dental problems, like toothaches, when they become an issue, rather than waiting until Monday.

The adventures of robin hood

Scotland’s Visible Fictions Presents The Adventures of Robin Hood Written by Oliver Emanuel and Directed by Douglas Irvine Bringing in a new and surprising take o n t h e l e g e n d o f R o b i n H o o d , Vi s i b l e Fictions makes a stop at Segerstrom

Center for the Arts with a production The Scotsman newspaper calls, “A timely contemporary twist on the story.” Created by the company that brought the hit show Jason and the Argonauts to stages all over the world, The Adventures of Robin Hood

breathes life into the outlaw we all know so well. Co-Commissioned by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., Robin Hood comes to Samueli Theater on November 8 & 9 for three performances only.

7 h e a l t h m y t hs t h a t m i gh t s u r p r i s e y o u Living a healthy life takes some resolve, but success often comes down to knowing what pays the biggest dividends for a given effort. Health coaches are great sources for this insight. They’ve seen it all on the job and learned a lot in their training. Health coaches for workplace wellbeing leader Provant identified seven commonly held health and wellness myths drawn from their research and experience: Myth No. 1: An aerobic workout boosts your metabolism all day. Wrong, it just burns calories while you’re doing it. Muscle-strengthening exercises, however, will burn calories long after your workout. Myth No. 2: If you don’t break a sweat, it’s not a workout. Wrong, sweat is just the body’s way of cooling itself. A better reflection of effort is the talk test: your workout is moderate if you can talk, but not sing, and vigorous if you need to take a breath every few words. Myth No. 3: You should stretch before you exercise. Not really, you could hurt yourself. Better to stretch

after you’re warmed up with light, smooth movement of gradually increasing intensity. Myth No. 4: Frozen fruits and vegetables are less healthy than fresh ones. Actually, they’re both healthy. Frozen fruits and vegetables are generally picked and frozen at nutritional peak. Canned can be a fine choice if you’re watching your budget. Avoid fruits packed in syrup. Myth No. 5: Cigars and chewing tobacco are safe because you don’t inhale. This is another myth. Cigar smokers have higher rates than nonsmokers of death from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and are four to 10 times more likely to die from cancers of the throat, mouth, lips, larynx and esophagus, according to the American Cancer Society. People who chew tobacco are more likely to develop oral cancers that affect the tongue, lips, cheeks and gums. Myth No. 6: Stress happens. There’s nothing you can do about it. Not true, stress doesn’t have to overwhelm you. There are several

approaches to managing it. Set priorities and tackle simple problems first. Then move on to complex difficulties. Practice relaxation exercises. Make yourself more resilient by eating smart, exercising and avoiding tobacco. Myth No. 7: Cold turkey is the best way to quit tobacco. Nope. It’s just one of the ways to quit, and the more times you try to quit, the better your chances

of succeeding. Research indicates to help improve success rates, you need: the desire and readiness to quit, some form of pharmacotherapy (nicotine replacement therapy or prescription medications) and social support (family, friends, health coach). Keep this information in mind as you go about improving your health, and most importantly, don’t give up.

Concert Under the Stars Lights Up the Night

Cal State Fullerton alumni Ernest (Class of ‘67) and Donna (Class of ‘71) Schroeder

Photo Credit: Matt Gush On Saturday night, California State University, Fullerton (CSUF) hosted its annual Concert Under the Stars on their Fullerton campus lawn. The concert is CSUF’s signature fall fundraiser and community outreach event. Money raised from giving and sponsorships is funneled into a variety of campus initiatives. Student supplies, textbooks, athletic equipment, student meal plans, and college scholarships all benefit from the support garnered through this event. Guests of the event were treated to a special reception, food, music, dancing, and a fireworks show. The night began with a special reception for VIP guests. Hors d’oeuvres, wine, and beer were served as guests were able to mingle about with sponsors, school and local officials, and major donors. Guests were then funneled to the main event on the campus lawn where music and dinner were waiting. Jazz pianist, composer, Grammy Award-winning arranger, and CSUF professor of music Bill Cunliffe was the featured artist of the evening. Dean Anil Puri and Joseph C. Hensley Throughout the evening, he led the CSUF 25-member student Jazz Orchestra and special guests through a varied assortment of jazz performances fused with elements of swing, pop, and hip-hop. Special guests from far and wide contributed to the evening’s entertainment. Guitarist Flávio Apro performed an arrangement of Mason Williams’ “Classical Gas.” Vocalists Dawn Bishop and John Proulx lent their voices to arrangements of Stevie Wonder’s “My Cherie Amour” and “Sir Duke” as well as Pharrell Williams’ “Happy.” Percussionist Joey De Leon lead the group through Tito Puente’s danceable “Ran Kan Kan.” Tom Ranier and his clarinet were featured in an arrangement of Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie’s “Anthropology.” Faculty members from the CSUF music program contributed as well. Vocalist Patricia Prunty performed a moving rendition of the iconic “Over the Rainbow.” Another vocalist, Mark Goodrich, was featured in Bobby Troup’s “Route 66.” Though most of the evening’s arrangements were done by Cunliffe, faculty member Mina Choi contributed arrangements to “Route 66” and “Anthropology.” Finally, The “Clockwork” Fullerton Jazz Singers as well as dancers from the Department of Theatre and Dance were featured Marilyn C. Brewer and Cal State in numerous acts. Darrell and Lisa Hoover Fullerton President Mildred García. It takes many hands (and feet) to put on an entertaining event of this magnitude. Perhaps the most surprising “guest” performer was one not featured in the event program. During “Ran Kan Kan,” student dancers left the stage and made way for CSUF President Mildred García. Guests were in awe as she finished out the song with effortless technique. She was rightfully treated to a standing ovation. Fullerton students could be heard murmuring “I had no idea she could dance!” as she walked off stage. The music was as flavorful and varied as the beverages and cuisine guests were treated to. The plates of blackened swordfish and braised short rib complimented the evening’s assortment of jazz. The warm California night was a perfect setting for guests and made the merlot stand out even more. Students at CSUF were able to join the festivities and sit on the comfortable grass lawn just beyond the dinner area. This area featured booths from various departments and campus entities that encourage student involvement and campus resources. The evening literally ended with a bang as guests and students alike enjoyed a full fireworks display. Michael and DeAnna Colglazier. Page 12

WICKED BROADWAY’S BIGGEST BLOCKBUSTER RETURNS TO LOS ANGELES at Hollywood pantages beginning Wednesday December 10 Back by “Popular” demand, Broadway’s biggest blockbuster, WICKED will return to its Los Angeles home, the Hollywood Pantages, for a limited engagement this holiday season running December 10, 2014 – February 1, 2015. Individual tickets will go on sale to the general public on Sunday morning, September 7 at 10:00am online at www.HollywoodPantages.com or www.Ticketmaster.com/Wicked, by phone at 800-982-2787, and at the Hollywood Pantages Box Office (6233 Hollywood Boulevard). The box office opens daily at 10am except for Holidays. WICKED solidified itself as a Los Angeles favorite with its most recent, highly-successful engagement during the 2011 holiday season. WICKED celebrated a record-breaking L.A. premiere in 2005, which was followed two years later by an extended engagement that would go on to run two years, becoming one of the longest-running Broadway musicals in L.A. history. The musical is directed by twotime Tony® Award winner Joe Mantello (Take Me Out, Love!

Valour! Compassion!, The Vagina Monologues) and features musical staging by Tony® Award winner Wayne Cilento (Aida, The Who’s Tommy, How To Succeed…). WICKED, winner of over 50 major awards, including a Grammy® Award and 3 Tony® Awards, is the untold story of the witches of Oz. It is produced by Marc Platt, Universal Pictures, The Araca Group, Jon B. Platt and David Stone. Long before Dorothy drops in, two other girls meet in the Land of Oz. One - born with emerald green skin - is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. WICKED tells the story of their remarkable odyssey, how these two unlikely friends grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good. WICKED has been declared “A Cultural Phenomenon” by Variety and “The Best Musical of the Decade” by Entertainment Weekly. WICKED currently has nine productions around the world, in New York, London, Japan, Australasian Tour, South Korea, Latin America, a U.K. Tour, and two concurrent North American

National Tours. Since its New York premiere a decade ago, WICKED has grossed over $3.4 billion worldwide and has been seen by over 42 million across the globe. WICKED has been performed in over 100 cities in 13 countries around the world (U.S., Canada, England, Ireland, Japan, Germany, Holland, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, The Philippines, and Mexico) and has thus far been translated into five languages: Japanese, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Korean. The regular performance schedule for WICKED is Tuesday through Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 2pm & 8pm, and Sunday at 1pm & 6:30pm. There is an added weekday matinee on Thursday, December 11th at 2pm.
