Segerstrom Center presents LA Opera Plácido Domingo stars as Athanaël in Thaïs
Segerstrom Center for the Arts President Terrence W. Dwyer and LA Opera General Director Plácido Domingo have announced the continuation of LA OPERA Off Grand Series at the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall with special concert performances of Giuseppe Verdi’s Falstaff on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 and Jules Massenet’s Thaïs on Thursday, May 22, 2014. Mr. Domingo will star in the lead baritone role of Athanaël in Thaïs and LA Opera Music Director James Conlon will conduct Falstaff. Both operas will feature the same casts, including the LA Opera Orchestra and Chorus, that will be heard in LA Opera’s fully-staged productions at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. Maestro Conlon will also conduct a free Preview Talk prior to the performance of Falstaff in the Studio Performance Space from 6:30 – 7:15 p.m. The operas will be sung in their original languages with English supertitles. Page 2
Two-opera packages will be available beginning January 27 at 10 a.m. They will be available online at SCFTA.org, at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa or by calling (714) 556-2787. Single tickets will go on sale closer to the individual performances. For inquiries about group ticket savings for 10 or more, call the Group Services office at (714) 755-0236. The TTY number is (714) 556-2746. Center President Terrence W. Dwyer said, “We are so pleased to bring exceptional opera into our community through these concert performances of two legendary operas. Both are being performed at the Center for the first time, giving a very special reason for Orange County opera fans to celebrate. We are thrilled, too, that Mr. Domingo will again be performing at the Center, in Thaïs, and that Maestro Conlon will again be conducting, this time Verdi’s Falstaff. We welcome

LA Opera back to their artistic home away from home in Orange County.” Christopher Koelsch, president and CEO of LA Opera remarked, “All of us at LA Opera are thrilled to return to Segerstrom Center for the Arts with two performances in the coming season. Orange County audiences have welcomed LA Opera so warmly, and I hope that there will be many collaborations there in the future.” Falstaff is an unabashed celebration of Merrie Olde England’s lusty days and bawdy nights. When Shakespeare’s portly knight of Windsor hatches a plot to improve his love life by courting two different married women, he launches a flood of comic chaos and romantic misadventure. Italian baritone Roberto Frontali sings the role of the beloved rogue, Sir John Falstaff. The cast also includes Italian soprano Carmen Giannattasio as Alice Ford, Italian baritone Marco Caria as Ford, Russian soprano Ekaterina
Sadovnikova as Nannetta and Argentinean tenor Juan Francesco Gatell as Fenton. Two mezzo-soprano alumnae of LA Opera’s DomingoThornton Young Artist Program will also perform: Ronnita Nicole Miller as Dame Quickly and Erica Brookhyser as Meg Page. Thaïs is the story of the beautiful courtesan in Alexandria, Egypt who holds an entire city in her thrall as she embraces life’s most sensual delights. A solitary monk, Athanaël, makes a pilgrimage to save her soul, but becomes entranced by her and falls victim to his own obsession. The opera is filled with intoxicating melodies, including the famed violin solo, Meditation. In the title role will be Georgian soprano Nino Machaidze, paired with Plácido Domingo as Athanaël. The LA Opera Orchestra and Chorus will be led by French conductor Patrick Fournillier.

New Laws For 2013 Gov. Jerry Brown signed 876 bills in the past legislative session. Here are just a few interesting new laws: The California Homemade Food Act allows people to register themselves at “cottage food operations” after taking a food safety class, passing a state examination, paying a registration fee, labeling their food as homemade and submitting their kitchens to an annual inspection. The law is aimed at stimulating the growth of small businesses as well as increasing access to the types of healthy food options, especially in low-income and rural communities. Residents of Orange County will now pay 8% while other areas got different sale tax rates. The increase in sales tax, that took effect on Jan 1, and which is charged on most items purchased, except food, depends on where one resides in the State. Car owners will be pleased to know that cars made in the year 2000 will no longer require a tail pipe emissions test, this is a money saving law for some. Employees, in the State, are now protected from their employers getting their username and password used on social media accounts, adding a degree of privacy and pro-
tection. Registered nurses can dispense in clinics, birth control drugs, such as ‘the pill’ without a doctors signature or prior visit. It will now be a misdemeanor in California to picket during a funeral service, as well as one hour before or after. SB 900 and AB 278 safeguard the rights of homeowners facing foreclosure. Among other provisions, lenders can no longer proceed with foreclosures while loan modification applications are pending. The CSU Board of Trustees is now required to provide student associations with a minimum six months’ notice before raising fees. Two more new laws pave the way for providing free access to digital textbooks for 50 lower-division courses offered in the CSU, UC and Community College systems. The new law will allow a person to send and receive text messages while driving if they are doing so using
a phone’s hands-free, voice-operated functions. Law enforcement will now be required to accept proof of insurance on a driver’s phone or tablet. Owners of apartment complexes will have to have installed carbon monoxide detectors in every dwelling unit with a fossil-fuel-burning furnace or appliance, fireplace or attached garage. Any person may report a drug-
related overdose to authorities or seek medical assistance for a drug overdose without being subject to arrest on suspicion of possession of or being under the influence of illegal drugs. The Amber Alert program for missing children is expanded by adding a Silver Alert for missing senior citizens who could be in danger.

It is not often that one of our local residents celebrates a century of life. It is even rarer to celebrate a life so well lived. Augusta Knuthe will celebrate her 100th birthday on January 25, 2013! She currently resides at Atria Senior Living, in San Juan Capistrano. She is witty, articulate and owns life experiences that provide insights into a century of people, places and events. Born in 1913, in a rural area near Springfield Illinois, her father nicknamed her “Gustie”. He was first a farmer, then a manager for a mining company and always an avid reader. Her mother was a teacher, then State Farm Insurance adjuster, earning a master’s degree from Columbia University along the way.
Augusta received her bachelor’s degree in 1934 from Illinois State University, (her mother’s undergraduate alma mater). After graduation, Augusta married her husband Lawrence. His Job with Caterpillar Tractor as a buyer eventually brought them from Illinois to La Habra. Augusta taught 8th grade, for total of 36 years, mostly in La Habra. While working, she returned to university at night and earned her master’s degree in Social Science from Whittier College. Augusta has always supported education and employment opportunities for women. She joined the American Association of University Women (AAUW) in 1934, right after graduating from I.S.U. and is still
associated with the San Clemente/ Capistrano Beach Branch. She is also a member of P.E.O. International. Once retired, Augusta lived in Napa, Apple Valley and Poway. She is very proud of her sons Larry, also a teacher (retired), Mark, a research scientist, and her five grandchildren. In her room at Atria, she is surrounded by pictures and beautiful reminders of people and events that compose a life, rich in accomplishments and memories. Augusta inspires each of us to make the most of every moment, to value education for ourselves and others, and to stay involved with the people and causes we love. Let’s all celebrate Augusta’s 100th birthday!
Action is the antidote to despair. ~Joan Baez The San Clemente News

Since that debut, she has starred in the national tour of Annie Get Your Gun, Meet Me in St. Louis, Paint Your Wagon, They’re Playing Our Song and as the ‘Cat in the Hat” in Seussical both on Broadway and on tour. However, PETER PAN remains Cathy’s favorite. “One of the greatest gifts of my theatrical career has been the opportunity to play ‘Peter Pan’. The thrill of seeing the faces of children as I fly over their heads sprinkling fairy dust Page 6
and having the chance (eight times a week) to relive the adventure of a perfect “make believe” childhood.” Her greatest joy is the reaction, letters and emails that she receives from countless children and adults alike. Joining the Tony® Award nominee Cathy Rigby is Broadway’s Brent Barrett as Mr. Darling/Hook. Brent has entertained millions of fans around the world from Broadway to the West End, concerts halls, recording studios, film and television.

Barrie’s 1902 novel, “The Little White Bird,” the play PETER PAN was first performed in
The San Clemente News
London in 1904. The present musical comedy version of Barrie’s classic first appeared in 1954 starring Mary Martin and Cyril Ritchard in the leading roles. PETER PAN recounts the adventures of the three Darling children as they fly away from their nursery into the magic and wonder of Never Land. It is in Never Land that they encounter the cunning and evil Captain Hook, villainous pirates, a crafty crocodile and a sprightly fairy, Tinker Bell. The score, a joint effort by Moose Charlap, Carolyn Leigh, Jule Styne and Betty Comden and Adolph Green remains a favorite of children and adults alike. PETER PAN features such classics as “I Gotta Crow,” “Neverland” and “I’m Flying.” Production is directed by Glenn Casale who directed the 1999 Tony® Award nominated and Emmy winning Cathy Rigby is PETER PAN. Mr. Casale has been a resident at the California Musical Theatre for almost 23 seasons where he has directed over 550 shows.

Happy Grapes
By David White Ask a wine enthusiast to name his favorite value wines, and he’ll likely to steer you towards bottles that cost between $15 and $25 each. This makes sense -- many oenophiles think nothing of dropping $25 or more on each bottle of wine. But this ignores market realities. The average bottle of wine in the United States sells for just $6.22, according to Nielsen. A full 90 percent of all wines sold cost less than $12 per bottle. Americans like to drink cheap. So a wine enthusiast’s “value” wine is a regular wine consumer’s “splurge” wine. In 2013, resolve to splurge more often. Even if this means drinking less wine to keep your budget balanced, your palate will thank you. This isn’t to say that wines cost-
The Only Weekly Newspaper Exclusively for the San Clemente Area
January 11, 2013
Drink Better in 2013 ing less than, say, $10 per bottle are inevitably bad. There are plenty of satisfactory options at that price point. The shelves at stores like Trader Joe’s are full of such wines. But spending so little generally relegates one to mass-market brands that benefit from economies of scale. Spending $15-25 per bottle dramatically increases the possibility of finding a wine that’s exciting -- a wine that’s both delicious and intellectually captivating. One could compare it to the difference between Olive Garden and the local Italian joint. The former is predictably adequate, offering heaping piles of salad, breadsticks, and focus-group-tested entrees. The latter is hit-or-miss, but investigating such restaurants is always exciting. And exploration -- with food, wine, and so much else -- is the only way to discover underappreciated gems. A few years ago, I interviewed David Denton, a well-known wine educator and sommelier in Washington, DC. In explaining how he developed his passion for wine, Denton eloquently summarized the cerebral appeal of wine. “Wine is like travel in a bottle,” he explained. “For the cost of a bottle of wine, you can escape to somewhere exotic. You can get lost in
the label, thinking about where the wine came from and who made it.” That sense of place -- where a wine came from and who made it -- is the primary reason wine is so engaging. While it’s possible to find wines that inspire and pique curiosity for $10, it’s much, much easier if you’re willing to spend a bit more. Once you’re at the $15 to $25 price point, the number of options is virtually endless. Sure, even at $25, it’s nearly impossible to find Champagne, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, or high-quality Pinot Noir. But if you’re willing to drink bravely -- to explore the unfamiliar by trying unusual grapes from unusual regions -- you can sample some of the greatest wines in the world. Last weekend, for example, I enjoyed a remarkable Blaufrankisch -- the signature red wine of Austria -from Anton Iby, one of the nation’s best producers. It was fruity, spicy, distinctive, and absolutely delicious. The cost? Just $16. Some of the best reds from Spain, Portugal, Italy, and even France can be found at similar prices. On New Year’s Eve, I enjoyed two sparkling wines from France -- a Cremant d’Alsace from Joseph Pfister and a Cremant du Jura from
Hubert Clavelin -- that wowed my friends. Both bottles were purchased for just $15 per bottle. Sparkling wines from Alsace and the Jura have long offered exceptional value. With whites, the options are similarly expansive. In recent months, I’ve become obsessed with a Kerner, an extremely aromatic variety that was bred in 1929 by crossing Trollinger and Riesling. One of my favorites, which retails for $17, comes from Abazzia di Novacella, a winery that was founded a whopping 850 years ago by the Augustinian order of monks. Talk about history in a bottle! So long as you’re willing to spend $15-25, you can easily explore some of the most renowned whites from South Africa, France, Italy, Austria, and Germany. Early January is the perfect time to reflect on the previous year and make resolutions for the new one. For those of us who take wine seriously -- or at least want to -- it’s smart to include wine in our New Year’s resolutions. The world of wine offers endless possibilities. So in 2013, make sure to explore those possibilities -- and drink better!

Cars and Stars Showcased at Childhelp Fundraiser Car enthusiasts and supporters for The Orange County Chapter of Childhelp came to the 5th Annual Eurocar Charitable Fundraiser, an Evening of Cars and Local Stars at the Eurocar Showroom in Costa Mesa. With around 500 in attendance, the event was a major success as attendees enjoyed beautiful cars, great music, wonderful drinks and appetizers all helping Childhelp OC. The owners of Eurocar, Tilo and Paula Steurer, are committed to Childhelp’s goal of making the lives of abused and neglected children a little brighter. To get in the door, guests were asked to bring an unwrapped toy for a child. The event raised 600 gifts and store gift cards for the children in Childhelp’s care. They were distributed to the local group homes in Costa Mesa and the Village in Beaumont, CA. Folks walking into the showroom were greeted by amazing cars on display. There was one that caught everyone’s attention, the exquisite Bugatti Veyron donated for the evening by Milani Hair. The Bugatti Veyron is the fastest production car in the world as well as the most expensive. Researching this car, I found that it can go 0-62 MPH in 2.2 seconds and most I found on sale were well over $1 million dollars, wow! There was also a pair of gorgeous Ferrari’s, one red and one yellow that were showcased by owners of Giovanni Wheels. GMC in Santa Ana also displayed their Audi R8 race car. Hosts Tilo and Paula Steurer Guests were able to enjoy the specialty drink of the evening, the Tatratea. Tatratea is a tea based herbal liqueur made by Karloff and originated in the high Tatra Mountains. High Time Wine Celler in Costa Mesa provided the libations while food stations made up of mash potato bars with all the trimmings along with delectable desserts kept attendees noshing. Debra Violette, Vice President of The Orange County Chapter of Childhelp was on hand to answer any questions about Childhelp along with Patti Edwards who is on the Childhelp California State Board. There was an abundant silent auction area that had many movie star and sports memorabilia available for bidding. Popular items were the signed platinum records by the Beatles and photos of Audrey Hepburn. House of Bijoux displayed some very nice cuffs, earrings and necklaces as well. Childhelp has brought the light of hope and healing into the lives of countless children for over 50 years. CEO and Co-Founder Sara O’Meara and President and Co-Founder Yvonne Fedderson started Childhelp in 1959, establishing it as a leading national non-profit organization dedicated to helping victims of child abuse, neglect and at risk children. Childhelp’s approach focuses on advocacy, prevention, treatment and community outreach. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline, 1-800-4-A-CHILD®, operates 24 Alexa Violette and Makenna Hill hours a day, seven days a week, and receives calls from throughout the United States, Canada, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and Guam.

Bob Baker Marionette Theater 53rd Season SOMETHING TO CROW ABOUT Open-ended run begins performances February 2, 2013 The Bob Baker Marionette Theater celebrates its 53rd season with an open-ended run of the perennial puppet favorite “Something To Crow About” beginning performances February 2, 2013. Come join Mama and Papa Goat and 100 more of the world famous Bob Baker Marionettes for a musical “Day on the Farm” you will never forget. Everything from dancing scarecrows to tap dancing bullfrogs warbling “Shine On Harvest Moon”, “Something To Crow About” is guaranteed to put a smile on children of all ages! The production, which first opened at the Laguna Arts Festival 60 years ago, utilizes recordings from the familiar to the truly eclectic, and features puppet representations of every animal on the farm (along with dancing fireflies and even waltzing laundry!) This was the first production to utilize Bob Baker’s now famous “in the round’ style of puppetry. “Something To Crow About” is an hour-long production. After the performance, guests are invited to visit with the Puppeteers and have refreshments in the famous Party Room. The Bob Baker Marionette Theater in downtown Los Angeles is the oldest of its kind in the United States and has been entertaining children of all ages since its inception in 1960. At that time, Bob Baker and his business partner Alton Wood turned a scene shop in Los Angeles into the family entertainment landmark that it is today. The theater has an inventory of nearly three thousand puppets with just about everything from robots that light up, to dancing frogs, to egg laying chickens. Baker’s marionettes have entertained nearly seven hundred thousand people since the theater’s opening. Jennifer Steinhauer of The New York Times has described Baker’s shows as “a staple of a Los Angeleno childhood. It is the cultural equivalent of the annual march by the nation’s third graders to the neighborhood firehouse.” On June 3, 2009, The Bob Baker Marionette Theater was declared an historic cultural monument by the city of Los Angeles. Bob Baker first became interested in puppetry at the age of five, and has since become an innovator, artist, puppet master, and top-notch animator with credits in television and film. His marionettes have entertained thousands of children and adults
worldwide over the years. Mr. Baker has a current inventory of over three thousand puppets, with just about everything from robots that light up, to dancing frogs, to egg laying chickens. Bob began to learn the magic of puppetry at the early age of eight. He trained with several different local companies and put his skills to work with his first professional performance for director Mervyn Leroy. After graduating from Hollywood High School, he began his extensive career in animation at the George Pal Studios. He began as an apprentice and soon became a top animator of “Puppetoons” a year later. After WWII, Bob began manufacturing toy marionettes that sold both in Europe and the United States. Fifty of the finest department stores in the country carried his line including Bullocks Wilshire, Saks Fifth Avenue, Niemen Marcus, FAO Schwarz, and Marshall Fields. Bob also served as an animation advisor at many film studios including Walt Disney. As a puppeteer his prestigious credits include the films: “A Star Is Born”, “G.I. Blues,” “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, “Escape to Witch Mountain,” and “Bedknobs and Broomsticks”, as well as work on countless television series and projects. Baker has performed with the likes of Judy Garland, Elvis Presley, and Angela Lansbury. Aside from running the theater,
Baker maintains an active role in the company’s traveling shows. Bob has taken his marionettes to countless fairs, puppet festivals, and of course, birthday parties. The Bob Baker Marionettes have entertained audiences in Las Vegas, Toronto, New York, Germany, and have even performed on Navy ships and submarines. Mr. Baker is the former president of the Los Angeles Puppet Guild and Governor of the Television Arts & Sciences Animation Branch and currently sits on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Bob’s dream of establishing a school began with the formation of the Academy of Puppetry and Allied Arts, a non-profit organization. The Academy’s mission is to educate the public about puppet arts and to encourage and foster puppetry presentations. The Academy of Puppetry provides funding to subsidize tickets for students from local area schools to attend performances at the Bob Baker Marionette Theater and distributes literacy and language development resources that bring the experiences at the Theater back to the classrooms. The Academy of Puppetry provides
students and teachers in the Los Angeles area the opportunity to attend puppetry presentations and learn about the integration of puppetry arts with language arts, music, art, sculpture and crafts. The program also fulfills the Academy of Puppetry and Allied Arts’ mission of preserving puppetry arts and creative live entertainment for future generations of children and adults. Bob’s goal of a refurbished theater complex complete with training facilities is still a long way off. However, Bob hopes that, with the aid of civic leaders and corporate sponsors, his Academy will one day be a reality and housed in buildings adjacent to the historic Theater.

Fitness Facts the Experts Won’t Tell You By Carolyn Blevins You’re going to be sore somewhere. It’s just a fact of life and you know it. If you take a person who is essentially a physical lump and that lump suddenly starts a fitness routine, the lump gets sore, someplace. Even a well conditioned, athletic person will be sore when they incorporate a new activity into their usual fitness routine. Fitness in one sport or physical activity oftentimes doesn’t translate well, meaning that I can run five miles a day and still find myself wheezing my way through an aerobics routine, complete with burning muscles, strangled gasps for breath and thoughts like, “Whose stupid idea was this, anyway?” running through my head. And even with my five-miles-a-day capability, please don’t ask me to walk hills. My fanny will still be aching days later. I’d rather run a hill than walk it. Why? Because that’s the way my muscles are trained and because of that, running hills doesn’t make them sore and burning. Walking hills does. Muscles are creatures of habit. They get use to being used (or not used) in a certain way and it takes a bit of coaxing to get them to adjust to new circumstances. So what’s the answer to sore, achy muscles? Gentle stretching and another moderate workout. You need to coax the soreness out of the muscles while at the same time gently continue your new routine. The key word here is gently. Gentle stretching, gentle, varied workouts and rest periods. If I’m starting a walking routine, I might try for a half mile my first couple of days (based on my current fitness level and my dislike of walking) with gentle stretching before and after. If there’s going to be any sore and achy muscles involved, they’ll hit no later than Day Three. On that day, rather than taking the day off, I’ll do my gentle stretching and maybe walk a flat quarter mile, followed by more gentle stretching and then take Day Four off. The burning, aching muscles are caused by lactic acid buildup. Lactic acid is the waste product built up by working muscles. If you run your car, you burn gas. But you also create waste with the exhaust. Consider lactic acid as your muscles’ equivalent of exhaust. It needs to go away or we’ll poison our fitness efforts. Gentle stretching, varied workouts and intermittent “rest days” relieve the aches while also teaching your muscles to work more efficiently, burn fuel more effectively and lessen the amount of lactic acid buildup which occurs. The workout that seems to leave you a near cripple today will your “light” workout in a month or two as you fine tune your muscles and they become more efficient and stronger. And don’t forget to hydrate. Water helps flush the lactic acid out of the muscles and allows them to recover faster. Page 14
You’re probably going to look worse before you look better. Most of the ladies know by heart that cellulite is subcutaneous fat and that it’s the last to go when we diet and exercise. That’s nothing new to us. But here’s the phenomenon no fitness and dieting guru will tell you, yet it’s true and very logical: Since you lose overall body fat first, your “top layer” of fat as it were, the cellulite becomes more noticeable because it’s less buried behind other fat. In other words, for a little whileyou might actually look lumpier. Smaller, certainly, but lumpier. But it’s temporary. Keep up with your fitness routine and this temporary condition resolves itself pretty quickly. But you will be smaller. Workouts build muscle and reduce fat. Muscle weighs more than fat but it’s more compact, sleeker and obviously more toned. As your healthy muscles build and replace the fat you’re losing, you will become sleeker looking. And smaller and sleeker trumps big and lumpy any day of the week. Getting in shape is ugly. I get so sick of fitness shows and infomercials showing smiling, toned thin people in full makeup bouncing like corks in the water through their fitness routines in brand new matching sports bra and spandex pants. What most of us know logically is this and yet we still fall for the fantasy: These folks are in a studio with flattering lighting, they have stylists and makeup artists on hand and this “fitness routine” probably lasts all of 30 seconds at a pop. Not to mention God-knows-what surgical enhancement’s gone on. Let’s face it: In real life we don’t see too many natural 36Cs out there with washboard abs. I know from bitter personal experience that when you start to lose body fat, the boobs are the first to go. That’s not to say there aren’t some truly attractive, real people out there exercising. I see them sometimes. But I also know this, too, at least about my workouts: It’s not a fashion show and it’s not glamorous. I will sweat, I will be gasping for air at some point, my face will be red, my sweat-soaked hair will be plastered to my head and I’ll probably be grimacing. I will, in other words, look like hell. And I’ll stink, too. There’s nothing pretty, feminine or appealing about a workout. At least not mine, anyway. Getting in shape is work. Sometimes it’s psychological work - just getting amped up and in the right frame of mind to even get dressed out is tough some days, even for seasoned athletes. And sometimes it’s physical work sweaty, achy, wheezy physical work. After all, it’s called a “workout” not a “funout.” But here’s the thing: Once you conquer the psychological work - in other words, once you’ve got-
The San Clemente News
ten yourself off the couch and into your workout gear and step out the door (or into the gym) and get moving - the physical workout will take care of itself. Trust me. I’ve been an athletic person (running, aerobics, biking and such) off and on for 30 years. I’ve been chubby and I’ve been thin. And during those 30 years there were prolonged periods of inactivity where all I did, and wanted to do, was eat and sit around. I used to push myself to do better each day - run farther, run faster, get sweatier, “feel the burn,” and on and on and on. I’d worry over form and technique. When running, I’d worry over time versus distance. In aerobics, I’d worry about pointed toes, breathing technique and being on the beat. I don’t worry anymore. Or very little anyway. Here’s the reason why, the key to the whole thing, and it only took me 30 years to figure it out: If I just put one foot in front of the other, the workout will come. The workout will come whether I’m concentrating on form or thinking about my grocery shopping list. The workout will come whether I run the hill in 30 seconds or 45 seconds. If I’m in our spare bedroom and jump around for a half hour, it doesn’t matter whether I’m jumping to the Black Eyed Peas or jumping while watching Seinfeld reruns. It doesn’t have to be pretty and it doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be. Disconnecting your mental self from what’s going on with your physical body can be a blessing. I’ve run big hills that I can’t specifically recollect because my brain was free-floating while my body handled the hill. When you put yourself on autopilot and let your body do with work (after all, your brain can’t run hills, can it?), working out also becomes a vacation for your mind and spirit as well as a healthy habit for the body. Someone, somewhere, is going to discourage you. It may be well-meaning and unintentional or it may be a very pointed, specific sabotage attempt. It’s just human nature that we are comfortable with the status quo - it doesn’t matter whether the status quo sucks or not - we, on some level, crave our comfort zone. If sitting on the couch and weighing 180 pounds is my current comfort zone, that’s where I’ll want to be. Is it good? No. Healthy? No. Am I happy? No. What I am is comfortable. We stick with the devil we know versus the one we don’t. And I become my own saboteur. Or family members who are used to seeing you sitting around on Sunday mornings, drinking coffee, reading the paper and noshing on bagels or donuts, are uncomfortable when you try to get up and out the door for a workout. Why? Because you have gone out of your com-
fort zone, thereby affecting their comfort zone without their permission, and they don’t like it. It’s not spiteful, it’s probably not intentional and they probably couldn’t even explain it themselves. But it can be threatening. For women, this concept can be particularly difficult. No offense to men, but the world is generally conditioned to accept a man doing something that makes him happy. Going to a bar, hanging out with the guys, taking in a football game..any activity which is entirely centered around the man’s pleasure, and only the man’s, is both accepted and acceptable. But what happens when mom does something for mom’s benefit and mom’s benefit only? You’re taking time away from the kids, away from the house, away from the spouse and making you the center of your universe for thirty whole minutes. Almost like you were a real person. Old habits die hard. Old, ingrained reactions die even harder. Everyone will get used to your new routine and the world won’t come to an end. Just be aware that discouragement, both self-generated and other-generated, is part of the game. Don’t let it take you by surprise and don’t let it hang around too long. Remember that the big giant controversy we’re talking about is a 30 minute workout three or four times a week. Keep it in perspective. If you’re not plotting to rob a bank or relocate the family to Sri Lanka, then there’s really no big deal afoot other than maybe bumping yourself up a notch or two on the mental priority list we all have running through our heads every waking hour. Big deal. And don’t take it personally. As human beings our kneejerk emotional reaction is to fear the unknown. You might fear your fitness routine because it’s new and unknown. Your family might be uneasy with your activities because it’s new and unknown, and therefore threatening. It’s not a big deal in the long run and it’ll pass. Big, life-altering changes often happen to us a little at a time, building block by building block, without us hardly being conscious of them. I wish you good luck, encouragement and a healthy sense of perspective with your fitness routine. Each step you take gets you one step closer to where you want to be. Literally. It doesn’t have to be pretty and it probably won’t be. Just keep taking one step at a time - which is really the only way they can be taken anyway, right?

How to Jump Rope Your Way to Fitness! By Kristie Leong M.D. Are you looking for a fun and effective fitness routine that works almost every muscle in your body? You might want to give jump roping a try! A jump rope fitness routine can be carried out almost anywhere and there’s no need for fancy equipment, special clothing, or a gym membership. Plus, it’s fun to relive your childhood when it was so entertaining to jump to a variety of chants. You’ll forget it’s even exercise until you see the pounds start rolling off! Did you know jump roping is one of the best cardiovascular workouts around? You’ll love the fact that only 30 minutes of a moderately paced jump rope fitness routine burns around 300 calories. It’s a great way to develop your endurance, increase your aerobic capacity, tone the muscles of the lower body, and lose weight at the same time. Before you begin your jump rope fitness routine, it’s important to select the right equipment. A good pair of athletic shoes, preferably a cross-trainer with extra support for the ball of the foot, is critical to prevent excessive strain on the joints from the repetitive activity. You should select a jump rope of appropriate length for your height and with the right amount of weight. Some jump ropes are weighted which are probably best avoided since they can be rather difficult to manipulate, particularly for a beginner. Ideally, you should be able to test out your jump rope in the store before purchasing it. It’s important you feel comfortable with your selection since there are a variety of jump rope variations available. Discuss the different options with your sporting goods dealer and have him help
you choose the best jump rope for your height and build. There are a variety of jump rope moves you can do, but I would advise sticking to the basic jump in the beginning. The basic jump is performed by bringing the rope over your head and jumping once with bent knees for each turn of the rope. You can vary the pace of the basic jump based on your fitness level with the goal of picking up speed over time. You should land lightly on the balls of your feet with knees bent slightly. Try to maintain a steady rhythm, staring straight ahead while you jump, not looking down at your feet. Start out jump roping for 10 minutes at a slow pace and gradually work up to 30 minutes at a more rapid pace. There are a variety of ways to make your jump rope fitness routine more interesting. I like to play lively music in the background which is a great motivator and makes the time go by more quickly. Occasionally, I’ll jump rope while watching a favorite television show, but I wouldn’t recommend this if you’re a beginner since you need to concentrate on your form. You can also do other off the wall things to enhance your fitness jump rope routine such as singing silly songs or childhood jump rope chants. If you need more ideas on jazzing up your fitness routine, read this article.Whatever works for you

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 a 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 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 1-800-281-8219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco.com, using the file number assigned to this case TS No. 12-0079262.

MOZART’S “REQUIEM” - THE COMPOSER’S LAST YEARS OF LIFE AND HIS PROPHETIC FINAL WORK Pacific Symphony and Newport Beach Film Festival partner for film event in conjunction with concerts; “Amadeus” to be shown Jan. 28 at the Lido Regency in Newport Beach Classical Connections further probes Mozart’s masterwork with world-class soloists and Pacific Chorale on Sunday, Feb. 3 And don’t miss a musical game of dice that creates patron-generated scores— performed live—in the lobby pre-concert and during intermission, Jan. 31-Feb. 3 Pacific Symphony dives into the New Year with gusto by exploring Mozart’s “Requiem”—one of the most enigmatic pieces ever composed, mainly due to the myths and controversies surrounding it. Mozart’s “Requiem,” which was left unfinished at the time of the composer’s death, now enjoys an elevated status as one of the most magnificent achievements in sacred music. It is therefore a subject ripe for the second Music Unwound concert of the Symphony’s season, as Music Director Carl St.Clair and the orchestra dissect the master composer and his deathbed composition, which (ironically) was written for a stranger, yet in the end became the composer’s own requiem. In addition to providing a probing look inside the composer and his final work, this concert examines Mozart’s desire to create “some higher form of church music.” Featuring four world-class vocalists, soprano—Sharla Nafziger, mezzo-soprano Susanne Mentzer, tenor Brian Stucki, bass-baritone Derrick Parker—and the angelic voices of the Pacific Chorale, the program also includes Mozart’s Masonic Funeral Music, Fantasia in F Minor for solo organ, featuring organist Jung-A Lee, Ave verum corpus, plus, excerpts from and the Overture to “The Magic Flute.” Taking place Thursday through Saturday, Jan. 31-Feb. 3, at 8 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall, the concert includes a preview talk at 7 p.m. and a postconcert talkback with Symphony advisor Joseph Horowitz and Maestro St.Clair. Tickets are $25-$112; for more information or to purchase tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit PacificSymphony.org. Then, on Sunday, Feb. 3, at 3 p.m., Classical Connections further investigates why Mozart’s deathbed composition is considered one of the most sublime accomplishments in classical music. In addition to Mozart’s “Requiem,” the program includes the composer’s Fantasia in F Minor for solo organ, featuring organist Jung-A Lee and Ave verum Page 18
corpus. Led by Maestro St.Clair, as he provides insightful commentary to the composer and his works, Pacific Symphony is joined by soprano Nafziger, mezzo-soprano Mentzer, tenor Stucki, bass-baritone Parker and the sublime voices of the Pacific Chorale. Tickets for this concert are $25-$95. For more information about this concert or to purchase tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit PacificSymphony.org. And in preparation for the concerts, don’t miss the screening of the 1984 feature film, “Amadeus,” which tells the indelible story of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart through flashbacks by his peer and secret rival Antonio Salieri (confined at the time to an insane asylum). The film is being shown in partnership with the Newport Beach Film Festival on Monday, Jan. 28, at 7:30 p.m. at the Regency Lido Theater in Newport Beach. This is a free event—first come, first served. Mozart’s “Requiem” provides another chapter in the Symphony’s “Departures” theme, which explores final works by classical music’s most iconic composers, all of whom had very different and fascinating ways of expressing their last thoughts. Mozart’s “Requiem” follows on the heels of Mahler’s Ninth and Beethoven’s Ninth in 2011-12, Bruckner’s Ninth Symphony from the 2010-11 season’s “Cathedrals of Sound”; and the 2009-10 season’s “A Tchaikovsky Portrait: Child of Glass,” which looked at how Tchaikovsky’s turbulent personal life shaped his emotionally packed Sixth Symphony.
The San Clemente News
“We’re continuing this tradition of composers’ final thoughts with a program that is all Mozart—featuring his ‘Requiem,” says St.Clair. “We know Mozart didn’t complete this before he died, but he left us with 91 pages of manuscript—and there have been several completions done by various people. We know that his wife felt he was ill at the time he wrote it and that he had at least an inkling that these could be his final pages of manuscript. And so it is really always a very inspiring and religious experience—a spiritual experience—to approach the ‘Requiem,’ with a program that really probes Mozart’s departure.” Now in its fourth year, the Music Unwound initiative brings innovative new formats and thematic programming to the concert experience continues. Underwritten by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, each season the Symphony produces three very different enhanced concert experiences created through contextual backdrops in an attempt to give the music deeper meaning—this year beginning with a concert that took place in November 2012, “Come to the Cabaret.” As the second Music Unwound concert, Mozart’s Requiem is delivered through an array of media. “This particular program will be linked together with dialogue, actors, lighting, pictures and pictorials, so that we can get a deep sense of Mozart’s final years and final days, as he was struggling to complete this ‘Requiem’ at the end of his life,” says St.Clair. “It’s going to be a very, very
interesting compilation of Mozart’s work, all having to do with his departure, ending with his Requiem.” In the lobby, patrons are going to encounter Mozart Mashup—a musical game of dice— originally called a Musikalisches Würfelspiel, which began as a system for using dice to randomly generate music from pre-composed options. These games were quite popular throughout Western Europe in the 18th century. In 2013, Symphony patrons swipe a touch pad, which then yields a “virtual dice roll” resulting in a number between two and 12—with the number corresponding to a specific measure of music. The process is repeated to produce 15 different measures, in order to complete a score. The newly arranged scores are revealed electronically via a computer and flat-screen TV and a violinist and cellist from the Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra (PSYO) perform the music. This process is repeated, each time revealing new music determined by chance. The PSYO musicians perform the patron-generated scores on both the Unwound and Connections Mozart concerts. Pacific Symphony’s classical series performances are made possible by the Hal and Jeanette Segerstrom Family Foundation, with additional support from American Airlines, The Westin South Coast Plaza, KUSC and PBS SoCal. The Thursday, Jan. 31, concert is sponsored by the Shanbrom Family Foundation and Friday, Feb. 1, is sponsored by Symphony 100.
