Baroque Music Festival Corona del Mar, kicks off annual fundraiser with grant from Newport Beach Arts Commission In anticipation of its 34th annual season, the critically acclaimed Baroque Music Festival Corona del Mar this month marked the start of its annual fundraising campaign with the receipt of a grant from the Arts Commission of the City of Newport Beach. According to Elizabeth Blumenstock, the Festival’s Artistic Director, the City’s grant of $2,500 will be used to fund the appearance of cornetto and sackbut players with the Festival Orchestra, an ensemble consisting of musicians who play on original instruments of the Baroque era. The Festival’s principal fundraising event, its annual Winter Musicale, is a concert followed by dinner that each year attracts the Festival’s most faithful supporters, most of them residents of nearby cities who eagerly support classical musical events that do not require a drive northward to Los Angeles. At this year’s Winter Musicale on Sunday, February 16, violinist Elizabeth Blumenstock will be joined by pianist Mark Robson in a recital program of works from Mozart, Mendelssohn, and Schubert. The Festival’s annual series of five concerts opens Sunday, June 22, beginning an aural journey on the theme “From Polyphony to Counterpoint and Beyond” that traces the development of Baroque music from pre-1600 to 1714. Concerts follow on Monday, Wednesday, and
Friday, and the Festival concludes with a finale concert on Sunday, June 29. Entertaining Festival visitors before each concert on modern brass instruments, the South Coast Brass ensemble will play fanfares, canzones and excerpts from cantatas by Bach, Handel, Purcell and other high Baroque composers. Among the artists scheduled to appear at this year’s Festival is the Concord Ensemble, an outstanding group of vocalists specializing in Early Baroque music. Selections from their performances may be heard on their website, http:// www.concordensemble.com Another guest artist announced for this year’s Festival is the distinguished cornettist and Baroque recorder player Alexandra Opsahl, winner of the 2003 Moeck Solo Recorder Competition and the 2003 RAM Early Music Prize. Ms Opsahl’s appearance at the Festival is made possible by the grant received from the City of Newport Beach. She has performed with the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra as well as in the filmed productions of Claudio Monteverdi’s L’Incoronazione di Poppea, with both Oslo and Glyndebourne Operas. Further information on the Festival’s February 16 concert/fundraising event and the June Festival is available at the Festival’s website www.BMF-CdM. org or telephone (949) 760-7887.
City to Transition Residential Trash Collection to CR&R Environmental Services beginning March 31
City residential refuse customers must place cart orders no later than January 20 Newport Beach residents that currently have their trash collection service provided by the City of Newport Beach will soon have that service provided by CR&R Environmental Services. The transition will begin on March 31, 2014 and CR&R will provide automated or semi-automated service that requires the use of trash “carts” instead of cans. City trash service customers must order their new carts by January 20, 2014. They can order as many new, free trash carts and recycling carts as their household needs and can choose any of three cart sizes (35-, 64- or 96-gallons). CR&R will collect and recycle the old, unwanted trash cans the week following the delivery of the new carts. Separating recyclables in a separate cart is an option, not a requirement. All trash will continue to be sorted at a materials recovery facility where recyclables are removed. Information about the new carts Page 2
was mailed to every City residential trash service customer last week. Details about the carts, including their dimensions and capacity, can also be found here. Customers will receive a separate mailing from CR&R during the week of January 6 that provides more information on how to order the carts. Making sure each household receives the correct number and size of carts is very important and the City and CR&R are asking customers to consider the following before placing orders: • How many of the traditional, 32-gallon cans the household currently uses • The size of the space where carts will be stored • The option to consolidate and use the larger, 64- or 96-gallon carts • How many of the new carts the household needs • The size(s) needed • The option to separate recyclables at home and order a free recycling cart or carts. The carts are on display at nine different City facilities (click here or visit www.newportbeachca.

The Swallows of San Juan Capistrano Back from winter vacation in Argentina They’re on their way. The famous cliff swallows of San Juan Capistrano that leave town every year in a swirling mass near the Day of San Juan (October 23), are returning from their winter vacation spot 6,000 miles south in Goya, Corrientes, Argentina. They land at the mission in San Juan, California, on or around St. Joseph’s Day, March 19, to the ringing bells of the old church and a crowd of visitors from all over the world who are in town awaiting their arrival and celebrating with a huge fiesta as well as a parade. Seeking Solace in the Mission. Legend has it that the swallows took refuge in the Mission San Juan Capistrano from an irate innkeeper who destroyed their muddy nests. The swallows return to the old ruined church each spring knowing they will be protected within the mission’s walls. In fact, the city has taken their safety seriously passing an ordinance against destroying their nests. So-called “scout swallows” precede the main flock each year by a few days but the majority of the small birds usually arrives on the 19th and begins rebuilding the mud nests that cling to the ruins of the old stone
church and throughout the Capistrano Valley. The Oldest Building in California The mission, originally built from 1776–1806, was seriously damaged in 1812 by a deadly earthquake and was never fully rebuilt. It is the seventh in a chain of 21 California Missions all supposedly separated by the distance of a day’s walk. The Mission was named for the Crusader, Saint John of Capistrano, who had taken the name of his Italian birthplace. Padre Junipero Serra was a Spanish Franciscan priest who founded the church on November 1, 1776, and the adobe Serra Chapel section of the mission has been rebuilt and it is now the oldest building in California still in use today. The mission is located near two rivers and was an ideal spot for the swallows to nest for years because of the abundance of the insects on which they feed. The reduction in numbers of the insects, largely as a result of the development of the area, has caused some of the swallows to locate further from the center of town and explains why there are no longer huge clouds of swallows descending on the Mission. Still, it’s quite a sight.

St Patrick - recognized as the patron saint of Ireland St Patrick was a Christian missionary. Two authentic letters from him survive, the only universally accepted details of his life. When he was 16, he was captured in Britain by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to Ireland. He escaped, returned home and became a bishop. He later returned to Ireland, but little else is known. By the seventh century, he was credited as the patron saint of Ireland. (flourished 5th century, Britain and Ireland; feast day March 17) patron saint and national apostle of Ireland, credited with bringing Christianity to Ireland and probably responsible in part for the Christianization of the Picts and AngloSaxons. He is known only from two short works, the Confessio, a spiritual autobiography, and his Letter to Coroticus, a denunciation of British mistreatment of Irish Christians. Patrick was born in Britain of a Romanized family. At age 16 he was torn by Irish raiders from the villa of his father, Calpurnius, a deacon and minor local official, and carried into slavery in Ireland, where, during six bleak years spent as a herdsman, he turned with fervour to his faith. Hearing at last in a dream that the ship in which he was to escape was ready, he fled his master and found passage to Britain. There he came near to
starvation and suffered a second brief captivity before he was reunited with his family. Thereafter, he may have paid a short visit to the Continent. The best known passage in the Confessio, his spiritual autobiography, tells of a dream, after his return to Britain, in which one Victoricus delivered him a letter headed “The Voice of the Irish.” As he read it, he seemed to hear a certain company of Irish beseeching him to walk once more among them. “Deeply moved,” he says, “I could read no more.” Nevertheless, because of the shortcomings of his education, he was reluctant for a long time to respond to the call. Even on the eve of reembarkation for Ireland he was beset by doubts of his fitness for the task. Once in the field, however, his hesitations vanished. Utterly confident in the Lord, he journeyed far and wide, baptizing and confirming with untiring zeal. In diplomatic fashion he brought gifts to a kinglet here and a lawgiver there but accepted none from any. On at least one occasion, he was cast into chains. On another, he addressed with lyrical pathos a last farewell to his converts who had been slain or kidnapped by the soldiers of Coroticus. Careful to deal fairly with the nonChristian Irish, he nevertheless lived in constant danger of martyrdom. The evo-
cation of such incidents of what he called his “laborious episcopate” was his reply to a charge, to his great grief endorsed by his ecclesiastical superiors in Britain, that he had originally sought office for the sake of office. In point of fact, he was a most humble-minded man, pouring forth a continuous paean of thanks to his Maker for having chosen him as the instrument whereby multitudes who had worshipped “idols and unclean things” had become “the people of God.” The phenomenal success of Patrick’s mission is not, however, the full measure of his personality. Since his writings have come to be better understood, it is increasingly recognized that, despite their occasional incoherence, they mirror a truth and a simplicity of the rarest quality. It is not possible to say with any assurance when Patrick was born. There are, however, a number of pointers to his missionary career having lain within the second half of the 5th century. In the Coroticus letter, his mention of the Franks as still “heathen” indicates that the letter must have been written between 451, the date generally accepted as that of the Franks’ irruption into Gaul as far as the Somme River, and 496, when they were baptized en masse. Patrick, who speaks of himself as having evangelized heathen Ireland, is not to be
confused with Palladius, sent by Pope Celestine in 431 as “first bishop to the Irish believers in Christ.” Before the end of the 7th century, Patrick had become a legendary figure, and the legends have continued to grow. One of these would have it that he drove the snakes of Ireland into the sea to their destruction. Another, probably the most popular, is that of the shamrock, which has him explain the concept of the Holy Trinity, three persons in one God, to an unbeliever by showing him the threeleaved plant with one stalk. Today Irishmen wear shamrocks, the national flower of Ireland, in their lapels on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17.

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.
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.
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.

Great Day of Eagle Counting
On Saturday March 8th, the final bald eagle count of the winter was conducted by volunteer eagle observers and local Federal and State biologists around several lakes in the southern California. A grand total of nine eagles (7 adults and 2 juveniles) were observed at the lake areas during the 1- hour count. Five bald eagles (4 adults and 1 juvenile) were observed at Big Bear Lake; 1 juvenile eagle at Lake Arrowhead; 2 adult eagles at Silverwood Lake; 1 adult eagle at Lake Hemet; 0 eagles at Lake Gregory and 0 at Lake Perris. Juvenile eagles are distinguished by a brown head and tail; adults are recognized by the famous white head and tail - it takes 4-5 years to acquire full adult coloration. Juvenile eagles are the same size as the adults. Approximately 191 observers participated in the 1-hour eagle census (57 at Big Bear area, 20 at Lake Arrowhead/Lake Gregory, 68 at Silverwood Lake, 19 at Lake Hemet, and 37 at Lake Perris. The count coordinators from the Forest Service and State Recreation Areas would like to thank those volunteers for their dedication in getting up early and participating in the eagle census. The success of the eagle counts is entirely dependent
on the volunteers! We’ve had a great season with fantastic turnouts of volunteers (and bald eagles)! Bald eagle counts have been conducted at some of sites since 1978 and all of the sites have been participating since around 2000. Four monthly counts are conducted between December and March to estimate the number of bald eagles that are wintering in the area. The highest numbers are typically in February and March. It was a beautiful day for spotting eagles and was a great way to end our winter eagle censuses. Many of the bald eagles have started migrating out of southern California, heading north to their breeding grounds. A few breeding pairs have set up nesting territories and are year-round residents. A pair of bald eagles is tending their nest at Lake Hemet. Big Bear Lake’s nesting pair hatched two chicks in early February but, unfortunately, they did not survive last week’s severe storm. See websites for additional information about the San Bernardino National Forest (http://www.fs.fed.us/ r5/sanbernardino/) and the California State Recreation Areas (www.parks. ca.gov). About the U.S. Forest Service:
The mission of the Forest Service is to sustain the health, diversity and productivity of the nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations. The agency manages 193 million acres of public land, provides assistance to state and private landowners, and maintains the largest forestry research organization in the world. Public lands the Forest Service manages contribute more than $13 billion
to the economy each year through visitor spending alone. Those same lands provide 20 percent of the nation’s clean water supply, a value estimated at $7.2 billion per year. The agency has either a direct or indirect role in stewardship of about 80 percent of the 850 million forested acres within the U.S., of which 100 million acres are urban forests where most Americans live.

the symbols of St. Patrick’s Day St. Patrick’s Day is a holiday known for parades, shamrocks and all things Irish. From leprechauns to the color green, find out how symbols we now associate with St. Patrick’s Day came to be, and learn about a few that are purely American invention. The Shamrock The shamrock, which was also called the “seamroy” by the Celts, was a sacred plant in ancient Ireland because it symbolized the rebirth of spring. By the seventeenth century, the shamrock had become a symbol of emerging Irish nationalism. As the English began to seize Irish land and make laws against the use of the Irish language and the practice of Catholicism, many Irish began to wear the shamrock as a symbol of their pride in their heritage and their displeasure with English rule. Irish Music Music is often associated with St. Patrick’s Day—and Irish culture in general. From ancient days of the Celts, music has always been an important part of Irish life. The Celts had an oral culture, where religion, legend and history were passed from one generation to the next by way of stories and songs. After being conquered by the English, and forbid-
den to speak their own language, the Irish, like other oppressed peoples, turned to music to help them remember important events and hold on to their heritage and history. As it often stirred emotion and helped to galvanize people, music was outlawed by the English. During her reign, Queen Elizabeth I even decreed that all artists and pipers were to be arrested and hanged on the spot. Today, traditional Irish bands like The Chieftains, the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem are gaining worldwide popularity. Their music is produced with instruments that have been used for centuries, including the fiddle, the uilleann pipes (a sort of elaborate bagpipe), the tin whistle (a sort of flute that is actually made of nickel-silver, brass or aluminum) and the bodhran (an ancient type of framedrum that was traditionally used in warfare rather than music). The Snake It has long been recounted that, during his mission in Ireland, St. Patrick once stood on a hilltop (which is now called Croagh Patrick), and with only a wooden staff by his side, banished all the snakes from Ireland. In fact, the island nation was never home to any snakes. The “banishing of
the snakes” was really a metaphor for the eradication of pagan ideology from Ireland and the triumph of Christianity. Within 200 years of Patrick’s arrival, Ireland was completely Christianized. Corned Beef Each year, thousands of Irish Americans gather with their loved ones on St. Patrick’s Day to share a “traditional” meal of corned beef and cabbage. Though cabbage has long been an Irish food, corned beef only began to be associated with St. Patrick’s Day at the turn of the century. Irish immigrants living on New York City’s Lower East Side substituted corned beef for their traditional dish of Irish bacon to save money. They learned about the cheaper alternative from their Jewish neighbors. The Leprechaun The original Irish name for these figures of folklore is “lobaircin,” meaning “small-bodied fellow.” Belief in leprechauns probably stems from Celtic belief in fairies, tiny men and women who could use their magical powers to serve good or evil. In Celtic folktales, leprechauns were cranky souls, responsible for mending the shoes of the other fairies. Though only minor figures in Celtic folklore, leprechauns were known for
their trickery, which they often used to protect their much-fabled treasure. Leprechauns had nothing to do with St. Patrick or the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, a Catholic holy day. In 1959, Walt Disney released a film called Darby O’Gill & the Little People, which introduced America to a very different sort of leprechaun than the cantankerous little man of Irish folklore. This cheerful, friendly leprechaun is a purely American invention, but has quickly evolved into an easily recognizable symbol of both St. Patrick’s Day and Ireland in general.

St. Patrick’s Day in America and Ireland Before doing my recent research on St. Patrick’s Parades, I assumed, as I imagine that many people do, that the mother of all St. Patrick’s Day parades must be in Ireland. In studying the history of the celebrations I learned that my assumption was incorrect. In fact, the “original” St. Patrick’s Day Parade was held in New York, 16 years before the Declaration of Independence was signed. The tradition of celebrating St. Patrick’s Day parades began as a response to oppression. An English law forbid the Catholic’s parades, but allowed a religious procession after Mass. So, on this technicality, the Irish Catholics got a permit for a church procession. The St. Patrick’s procession would leave from the Cathedral after Mass. Therefore the original parades were actually an act of defiance. While the parades have become an accepted part of the mainstream in the United States, historically, that has not been the case. There are several cities that started having parades in the early years, only to suspend them during times of hardship. The times of hardship included anti Irish sentiment, two World Wars and the Great Depression. Up until the mid nineteenth century, the majority of Irish immigrants in America were members of the Protestant middle class. The 1845, the Great Potato Famine hit Ireland and close to a million poor, uneducated Catholic Irish started pouring into the United States. The Irish immigrants were despised when they first immigrated, and had trouble finding even menial jobs. They soon began to realize that their great numbers gave them political power and they began to organize. Their voting block became known as the “green machine”. The St. Patrick’s’ Day parades became a show of strength for Irish Americans and a “must attend” event for politicians. As the parades became part of the mainstream society, Protestants celebrated alongside the Catholics and they all enjoyed the party. What started as a religious procession became a celebration with music, dancing and green beer. St. Patrick’s Day and green beer have become synonymous. It’s traditional in many cities for everyone to go on a pub crawl after the parade and drink copious quantities of green beer, which is simply regular beer with some green food dye added. While the St. Patrick’s Day party reigned in American, the Irish observed St Patrick’s Day as a holy day. St. Patrick’s Day had been a solemn Page 8
The Newport News
holy day for centuries. As a holy day, the saloons were closed, which was the opposite of the parties that occurred in America. St. Patrick lived over 1600 years ago. He had endured a turbulent life. He was captured and enslaved at the age of 16. He worked as a slave in Ireland, part of that time working as a shepherd. He escaped and became a man of God, entering the priesthood. He was educated in a monastery in France. He was made a Bishop and was returned to Ireland, this time to work as a missionary and convert the pagans to Christianity. He was successful in converting many people to Christianity. The legend of St. Patrick is that he led the snakes out of Ireland. However, as snakes are not indigenous to Ireland, it is believed that the legend is symbolic. Most believe that the snakes of legend were actually symbolic of the pagans that were converted. St. Patrick is credited with using a shamrock to explain the holy trinity to pagans. Thus the shamrock is symbolic of the holy day. In 1995, Ireland set up a St. Patrick’s Day Festival, with the goal of capitalizing on the popularity of the celebration and to encourage tourism to Ireland. The First St. Patrick Festival was held on March 7, 1996. In 1997 the event was a 3 day festival. This year the five day festival will feature 4,000 performers, with one millions people celebrating. Events include music, street theater, family carnivals, comedy, street performances, dance, a treasure hunt, night spectacles, and many celebrants. In Ireland the St. Patrick’s Day Festival is an event that draws locals and tourists. The country, with it’s long history of honoring St. Patrick and his good works sounds like a great party. On the other hand, if you want to go to the original St. Patrick’s Day Parade, New York is the place.

Laguna Playhouse Motown Gala Raises $118,000
The Newport News
Laguna Playhouse Board of Trustees President Joe Hanauaer and his wife Jane, and Laguna Playhouse Youth Theatre Director Donna Inglima
The Resort at Pelican Hill was the perfect place for 300 guests attending Stop in the Name of Fun Motown Benefit Gala for the Laguna Playhouse with a catered reception, fabulous dinner, Live and Silent Auction as well as entertainment. Folks pulled out all the stops with getting into the theme with big hair, glitzy dresses, bell-bottoms and a variety of “60’s” attire. “We are ecstatic! It was a perfect night. We exceeded all goals for our fundraiser this year. We almost doubled our revenue over last year’s fundraiser. The gala attracted 80 more guests and auctioned 50 more packages and baskets than last year’s event. Everyone involved gave this event their all, and the results are outstanding,” says Motown gala co-chairs Heidi Miller (a Playhouse Board of Trustee member) and Michelle Bendetti, a long-time Playhouse supporter and theatre lover. Performance by The Laguna Playhouse Conservatory Students and entertainment by the cast of A Christmas Memory wowed the crowd. Allstars Live Band Guests enjoyed passed appetizers during the reception which included Beef Teriyaki Brochette, a Phyllo Cup filled with Chicken Curry Salad, Peppers and Cashews and Tomato Soup with Mini Dill and Havarti Grilled Cheese in Shot Glass. A scrumptious dinner followed with California salad featuring fresh Mache lettuces and figs along with duo entrée of Chicken and Salmon. Oh and for dessert, a decadent Chocolate Volcano cake! Newport Beach Vineyards and Winery provided and donated the wines that were served with dinner. The Live Auction began with many exciting items: a walk on role for The Reduced Shakespeare Company’s ALL THE GREAT BOOKS (ABRIDGED); there were two winners - Lisa Hale and Suzanne Wilcox; Motown on Broadway New York City Trip Package had three winners, Judi Gorski, Elliott Segal, and Betsy Jenkins; Cabo vacation for a Week at a private home in Baja Mexico, Barbara Macgillivray was the lucky winner for that trip. The Chicago Gold Coast Get-Away with a stay in a vintage luxury apartment, theatre tickets and dining went to Donnie Crevier; and Lisa Hale took home the Corum Admiral’s Cup 48 Chrono Sport Luxury Timepiece. Youth Theatre Advisory Council Anticipation was heavy for the raffle prize; Janet Curci won the one week Gary and Betsy Jenkins president Annee Della Donna and Kauai Condo Vacation. “We are enormously grateful to the many generous Vice President Stella Doiron Motown Gala Sponsors and Underwriters; their support enabled us to exceed our financial goals. And most importantly, introduce many new people to the joys of The Playhouse,” adds Holly Wisneski, Playhouse Director of Development. After the program was over, everyone couldn’t resist dancing to the Allstars Live band, they performed a repertoire of Motown Sounds including songs from Diana Ross and The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, The Marvelettes, Smoky Robinson and The Miracles. To remember the night, guests received complimentary photos (with a Motown background) created by Elegant Photography. The mission of The Laguna Playhouse is to enrich lives through the magic of live theatre, to provide educational opportunities for children and adults, and to create experiences that stimulate cultural and social interaction and inspire our community. The Playhouse relies on contributions from generous donors, in addition to box office ticket sales, to fulfill its mission.

F AITH C OMMUNITIES c o m e t o g e t h e r TO PRAY FAITH COMMUNITIES come together TO PRAY for Christian Unity and advocate for Comprehensive Immigration Reform . Annual event brings diverse faith communities together in prayer and in celebration of their common love of God. The Most Rev. Kevin Vann, Bishop of Orange and Bishop Minerva Carcaño of the California-Pacific Methodist Conference will lead a gathering of community members representing many faith traditions for the Diocese of Orange’s annual Ecumenical Prayer Service for Christian Unity on March 19, 2014, 7 p.m. at the Christ Cathedral campus (Arboretum). This year’s ecumenical prayer service seeks to build on the significant collaboration and unity built over many years of dialogue and community building to take action on an important issue affecting all communities of faith in Orange County, Calif., the broken immigration system. Bishops Vann and Carcaño will share their experiences as pastors and faith leaders caring for immigrant communities and the response of faith called for by the suffering and hardship faced by immigrant families. “We are blessed as communities of faith to come together and celebrate
our common values and love of God. As people of faith, we believe in the human dignity of all people, no matter their country of origin. For Catholics, immigration reform finds a foundation not only in Catholic social teaching, but as a response of faith. We heed our Holy Father Francis’ call made during his trip to the Italian island of Lampedusa to denounce the ‘globalization of indifference’ toward migrants,” said Bishop Vann. With a focus on the dignity of the human person, the theme of the 2014 prayer service is, “A Christian Response to Immigration Reform.” This theme reflects the call made by Pope Francis during in 2013 address at Lampedusa; “These, our brothers and sisters, seek to leave difficult situations in order to find a little serenity and peace. They seek a better place for themselves and for their families—but they find death…We are a society which has forgotten how to weep, to experience compassion.” Annually the Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs Office of the Diocese of Orange invites a faith community to join the Catholic community in faithful solidarity for this prayer service. “We are pleased that the United Methodist
Church will participate with us this year and will join us in praying for and supporting our immigrant brothers and sisters,” said Rev. Al Baca, ecumenical and interreligious affairs officer, Diocese of Orange. “Christian unity can lead to local and even worldwide collaborations on social justice issues such as immigration, programs for the homeless and greater access to health care. We hope people of
all faith backgrounds and beliefs will join us for this evening of prayer and reflection.” There is no charge for this event, and no tickets or reservations are necessary. The Arboretum on Christ Cathedral campus is located at 13280 Chapman Ave. in Garden Grove. For further event information, visit www. rcbo.org or call 714-282-3006.
dozens of measures to be considered as new bills With the February 21 deadline for the introduction of new bills in the rear view mirror, California Newspapr Publishers Association staff has been busy identifying measures that would have an impact on the newspaper industry. While CNPA has not yet taken any positions on recently introduced bills, the Government Affairs Committee will be meeting on May 1 at the annual Press Summit in San Jose to consider dozens of measures. Following are some of the bills that staff has identified: EXEMPT PUBLIC ACCESS TO ATTORNEYS FEES AB 2507 by Assemblyman Raul Bocanegra (D- Los Angeles) would exempt from public access attorneys’ invoices, billing statements, and requests for payment until the litigation has been finally adjudicated or otherwise settled. ELIMINATE NAMES OF OFFICIALS FROM PROPERTY RECORDS AB 2206 by Assemblyman Jimmy Gomez (D- Los Angeles) would authorize a county to establish a program that requires the names of public safety officials including judges, prosecutors and others to be redacted from any property record of principal residence that is disclosed to the public. The bill would also set forth requirements that would apply to the sale of aggregate data and would require a county that establishes a program pursuant to this act to also ensure that the property record of a public safety official is redacted when a search is conducted by index by name of the public safety official. PREVENT SOLICITING C O RR E C T I O N S TO CR I M I NA L
RECORDS SB 1027 by Senator Jerry Hill (D-San Mateo) would prohibit a person who publishes criminal record information, including mug shots, via print or electronic means from soliciting or accepting a fee or other consideration to remove, correct, or modify that information. ALLOW LOCAL AGENCIES TO DESTROY PERSONAL INFORMATION AB 1442 by Assemblyman Mike Gatto (D-Glendale) would apply the state’s Information Practices Act to local agencies and would require an agency to destroy any personal information in its possession once the agency determines the personal information is no longer relevant and necessary to accomplish the purpose for which the information was obtained. ALLOW PUBLIC INSPECTION OF UTILITY COMPANY MANAGEMENT INTERESTS AB 1601 by Assemblyman Mark Stone (D-Scotts Valley) would open for public inspection information furnished to the Public Utilities Commission by a public utility, a subsidiary, an affiliate or a corporation holding a controlling interest in a public utility, except as specified. ALLOW TRANSFER REQUEST RECORDS TO BE WITHHELD FROM PUBLIC VIEW AB 1888 by Assemblyman Phil Ting (D-San Francisco) would delete the requirement in existing law that, upon request, a documentary transfer tax be shown on a separate paper affixed to a recorded document allowing the separate document to be withheld from public view. STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES
TIME LIMIT FOR ACCESS BY PRESS SB 1337 by Senator Mark DeSaulnier (D-Concord) would add provisions to the CPRA requiring state and local agencies to provide an electronic copy of a requested public record and would impose a hard 14-day response time for requests made by members of the press. MAKE CONTRACT RECORDS ACCESSIBLE AS PUBLIC RECORDS AB 1921 by Assemblyman Chris Holden (D-Pasadena) would require specified service contracts between a state agency and a person or company performing a governmental function to include provisions that require agency access to records held by the contractor and notification that such records may be public records. The bill also would require the contractor to keep and maintain public records pertaining to the contract and to provide the agency with access to such records as provided in the CPRA. EXEMPT PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF FINANCIAL TERMS OF CONTRACT FOR SINGLE SOURCE DRUGS AB 1923 by Assemblyman Tom Daly (D- Anaheim) would exempt from public disclosure the financial terms of a contract for single source or multisource drugs, as specified. REQUIRE KILL SWITCH ON LOST OR STOLEN CELL PHONES SB 962 by Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) would require that mobile devices sold in California after Jan. 1, 2015 include a technological solution, consisting of software, hardware or both, that would render the essential features of the device inoperable when the device is not in the possession of its
rightful owner. ALLOW SECRETARY OF STATE TO DETERMINE RECORDS PRESERVED BY EX GOVERNORS SB 1009 by Senator Carol Liu (D-La Cañada) would give the Secretary of State the right to determine whether records should be preserved that were under the custody of a governor and transferred when the Governor leaves office. REQUIRE ONLINE DATA BROKERS TO DISCLOSE SALE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION SB 1348 by Senator Mark DeSaulnier (D-Concord) would require an online data broker that conducts business in California and that sells the personal information of any resident of California to a third party, to notify the individual to whom the personal information pertains when the information is sold and inform the individual of the content of the information and the identity of the purchaser. INCREASES MINIMUM WAGE FROM $11 PER HOUR TO $13 PER HOUR OVER THREE YEARS SB 935 by Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) would increase the minimum wage to $11 per hour in 2015, to $12 in 2016, to $13 in 2017 and annually thereafter as specified.

St. Patrick’s Day Recipes: Easy Dips, Corned Beef Cabbage, Potatoes, Green Drinks and More By Slate Stone The key to fun and festive St. Patrick’s Day feast is to have lots of tasty food with lots of green color. You can accomplish this with some ready made green treats such as serving up lime sherbet or sorbet sprinkled with green sugar. Other cold green St. Patrick’s Day treats could include Pistachio ice cream, Mint chocolate chip ice cream, green koolaid or limeade, or any cake with green food coloring added to perk up the frosting. Use limes in your St. Patrick’s Day Recipes as garnishes. Use mint leaves and organic green lettuces in your St. Patrick’s Day recipes as plate garnishes also. Think green green green for St. Patrick’s Day recipes! Perhaps serve a platter of sliced kiwi with little dabs of whipped cream. Honey dew melon drizzled with Crème de menthe liqueur. Key Lime Pie certainly has hints of green! Instead of fresh squeezed lemonade make your St. Patrick’s Day menu include freshly squeezed lime aid. From green celery sticks to green napkins to green frilly cocktail forks, to parsely, the more green the more St Patricks Day spirit will abound in your St Patricks Day appetizers and foods. Below are 3 recipes for a St Patricks Day Artichoke Spinach dip searved with Irish soda bread. The Irish soda bread will be readily available at your grocer’s bakery department the days leading up to St Patricks Day. Another recipe for a fun green St Patricks Day drink, limeaid! And of course the most important of all is the corned beef and cabbage and potatoes, traditional St Patricks Day recipe fare--- however this has a great twist--- forget babysitting the stove, do it all in a roasting bag for less mess and a super succulent perfect meal! Irish Soda Bread Spinach Artichoke Dip This hot dip recipe works well with Irish soda bread. Here’s how you make it: 1 (8 ounces) package of cream cheese, softened 1 package ( 10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, Page 16
drained 1 jar (7.5 ounces) marinated artichoke hearts, drained, chopped 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated Directions: Spread cream cheese into bottom of 9 inch metal or disposable aluminum pie plate. Set aside. In food processor, mix spinach, artichokes, and mozzarella cheese until creamy and well blended. Pour mixture into pie plate and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350 degrees in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Serve on a platter surrounded by cut pieces of Irish Soda Bread. Garnish edge of plate with fresh baby spinach leaves to give a wreath like appearance. St. Patrick’s Day Limeaid Recipe 4 medium sized limes 3/4 cup white sugar 2 quarts cold water Directions: Juice the limes in an electric citrus juicer for maximum juice squeezed. Don’t use lime juice concentrate, using fresh lime juice is the key to a great St. Patrick’s Day recipe for limeade. Pour the lime juice into a 2 quart pitcher and stir in sugar. Then add water as you continue stirring. Thoroughly chill before serving or serve immediately over ice.

Tips: You can serve limeade in a punch bowl and garnish with thinly sliced limes, just double or triple this St. Patrick’s Day recipe. To make any St. Patrick’s Day party a success, be sure to have some corned beef and potatoes and cabbage and lots of it! The aroma alone will contribute to the St. Patrick’s Day spirit! Mouth Watering St. Patrick’s Day Corned Beef Cabbage And Potatoes This St. Patrick’s Day recipe is super easy and super tasty because you don’t have to baby
sit the stove! Just use an oven roasting bag (the same size for turkey) and get it all in the bag and the rest is a breeze! Ingredients: 1 corned beef brisket (about 7 pounds) 5 pounds of potatoes, peeled and cut in half 2 heads of cabbage, cored and cut into wedges 1 pound bag of carrots, peeled and tips and roots removed. peppercorn spice (comes packaged with the brisket) 1 stick of butter 2 cups of water Directions: In large oven roasting bag place the beef brisket. Surround the roast with the cabbage, potatoes and carrots. Sprinkle the peppercorn spice over the brisket while in the bag. Slice the butter into small pats and distribute in the bag Add water to the bag and seal roasting bag according to package directions. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for approximately 2.5 hours. (The box the roasting bag comes in contains a booklet that tells exact cooking times for various sizes of meat if you buy a different size roast) Enjoy your fun and festive savory St. Patrick’s Day recipes and food!

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE TS No. CA-13-595035-JB Order No.: 8358283 YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 3/12/2008. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): MICHAEL F. BROPHY, A SINGLE MAN. Recorded: 3/19/2008 as Instrument No. 2008000126326 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of ORANGE County, California; Date of Sale: 3/28/2014 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: On the front steps to the entrance of the Orange Civic Center, 300 E. Chapman, Orange, CA 92866 Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $824,657.01 The purported property address is: 2206 EAST 15TH STREET, NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92663 Assessor’s Parcel No.: 425-301-20 NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware
that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http:// www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-13-595035-JB . 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. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
