Head of the class: New online college programs help students advance careers There is a skills gap in the United States. Thirty-nine percent of U.S. employers report having difficulty finding staff with the appropriate skills, according to the annual Talent Shortage Survey conducted by the ManpowerGroup, a human resource consulting firm. Employers are looking for employees who possess the proper education and training, but are having trouble finding qualified candidates. If you are trying to get ahead in your career, you’ve likely realized the skills gap exists and you know the benefits a new position or promotion could mean to you and your family.

Chances are you’ve seen these opportunities before but didn’t pursue them because of the time commitment to get the education and training you need. You ask yourself, “If I go back to school and have to wait two-to-four years before seeing the benefits of my education, will the opportunities still be there?”

The good news is that you don’t have to wait for graduation day to demonstrate what you’ve learned.

Some online colleges are reimagining higher education in ways that recognize the demands placed on people seeking to advance their careers. These programs strive to help students document achievements not just at graduation, but before then, while they are still in school. Here are just some of the ways. * Badging. Whether you were active in Scouting or have played online video games, you’re probably aware of the system of badging.

A badge or patch - physical or electronic - is awarded to recognize your specific accomplishments.

The badging idea now exists in higher education as well, and some online schools have tapped into this

trend, using the same principles to recognize student accomplishments.

The New Hampshire-based online school, Mount Washington College, for example, is integrating skill, motivational and peer mentoring badges. Online colleges find students enjoy the accomplishment of a badge as they continue toward graduation, and the online platform lends itself well to this system. The program is gaining traction with employers as well. Hiring managers are finding that the badges can sometimes say more about what a student has accomplished than the typical degree. * Skill stacking. To provide a clear way to demonstrate workplace-ready skills before graduation, leading online schools are offering students the capability to earn key industryrecognized certifications as they work toward their degree, delivering value prior to a diploma. For instance, Mount Washington College offers a project management certificate as well as an online marketing certified professional certificate.

Students can add these certificates to their resume or LinkedIn profile in order to display immediate benefits from their education as they continue on their degree path. These certificates are an excellent way to demonstrate to current or potential employers that you have learned work-place ready skills in areas such as communications, leadership, marketing, project management or other aspects of business. * e-Portfolio. For students who are looking for one convenient place to showcase their work to current or future employers, e-Portfolios are a valuable tool being introduced at some online schools. These electronic portfolios record any badges or work

samples loaded by students. They are a great way for students to showcase their knowledge, skills and abilities in one location. * Education on your timeline.

Traditional universities are difficult for non-traditional students because of their fixed class schedules and mandatory due dates for projects.

Online schools offer students a more flexible model; eliminating fixed semester schedules and giving students control over their own education. Students are able to complete their projects as quickly or slowly as their schedule allows, giving them the opportunity to pace themselves and see the best possible return on their education investment.

If you’ve considered going back to school but thought it couldn’t be done because you don’t have the time, these new online program innovations are worth a look. They provide tools to showcase accomplishments before you complete your studies, and give you the flexibility to learn on your terms and at your own pace.

Mount Washington College offers both an Associate of Applied Science and a Bachelor’s of Applied Science in Business Administration degree program. To learn more about these programs and new options for learning and demonstrating the knowledge and skills employers are searching for, visit mountwashington. edu. - (BPT)

Easy, affordable Halloween projects that kids and adults will love

Before the fall wind blows trick-ortreaters to your front door, make the most of the season with a few simple projects that your kids will love and you will too. They’re easy, fun and very affordable. All it takes is a little imagination and a few things you already have around the house to transform your home into Halloween central.

“Halloween can be so much fun, especially if you involve the kids,” says Paintideas.com blogger Angie Stinner. “Painting pumpkins or creating simple crafts to decorate your home doesn’t take much time and can be done on a shoestring budget. It’s a great way to share some

quality time before the busy holiday season.”

Here are a few easy, affordable projects from Angie’s Halloween bag of treats: * Go batty - Create adorable beverage can bats to hang on your porch or anywhere in your home. Just rinse a few empty beverage cans with soap and water and allow to fully dry.

Remove the ring that’s attached to each can and bend the can slightly at the middle. Then, in a well-ventilated area like a garage with an open door, lay out old newspaper or an old sheet and spray several light coats of RustOleum Universal Gloss Black spray paint onto each can and allow them to dry for 24 hours.

Once the can has dried, glue bat wings to the sides of the can, teeth to the drinking area on the can, eyes to the top of the can just above the drinking hole and bat ears to the outer ring of the can (right above the eyes).

The wings, teeth, eyes and ears can be found at your local craft store or you can make them yourself from foam or construction paper. Glue a piece of fishing line to the can, allow the glue to dry and then unwind a paper clip and tie the other end of the fishing line to the paper clip to hang.

Leave this “welcome bat” plain, or use orange puffy paint to write a fun Halloween message. * “Trick” their treats - Don’t send your little ghost or goblin out with an ordinary treat container when it’s so easy to personalize it to reflect their Halloween style. Recycle the old plastic pumpkin they used the year before and transform it into something unique and special with spray paint.

Try Rust-Oleum Painter’s Touch Ultra Cover 2X. It is available in a rainbow of colors to coordinate with any costume. Try a color like Grape or Berry Pink for your little princess or ballerina. Do you have a Shrek in the family? Try a color like Key Lime or Green Apple for their carrier. Once the plastic pumpkins are painted, let the kids decorate them using markers, puffy paint, stickers or stick-on jewels and they’re ready for a night full of candy goodness. * Instant messaging - Leave the carving knife in the kitchen drawer and try a new twist on pumpkin decorating. Buy a pumpkin or two at the supermarket or farm stand, clean it well to remove dirt and debris and paint it with Rust-Oleum Chalkboard Paint. Spray paint it traditional black - or brush on one of 14 colors in

the chalkboard palette with a foam brush. Remember to “scuff” up the pumpkin with the rounded edge of the chalk - then write messages to your kids throughout the season. The paint preserves the pumpkin, so you can have some Halloween fun right through Thanksgiving.

Halloween: A Sweet Time for Family, Fun and Traditions Halloween is a fun time of year meant to be celebrated with friends and family. While the holiday originated more than 2,000 years ago with Celtic tribes, the traditions of dressing in disguises and celebrating with food and drink endure to this day.

According to a survey conducted by the National Confectioners Association, more than three quarters of Americans will hand out candy to trick-or-treaters this year and many others will participate in community sponsored Halloween events, display a seasonal candy bowl or attend a Halloween party.

No matter what age group, Halloween is a time to let loose and have some fun. Here are some tips to help you and your family make the most of this sweet and spooky holiday: Make new traditions together.

While trick-or-treating is a perennial favorite Halloween activity, don’t be afraid to expand your options. Many families already enjoy things like carving a jack-o-lantern or attending a family oriented Halloween party.

For some new ideas, try transforming your home into a haunted house Page 6

with spooky displays, decorating customized trick-or-treat bags or even going on a hayride at a local farm. It doesn’t matter what you are doing as long as you can spend time with loved ones.

Amp up the spook-factor with creepy treats. Candy is a special part of Halloween, and one of life’s little pleasures that is meant to be enjoyed as a treat during the holiday.

On Halloween, candy shaped like eyeballs, brains or spiders can be a fun way to create a memorable celebration. Parents are 24 percent more likely than non-parents to pick creepy candy over other Halloween themes.

Enjoy candy in moderation. With lots of treats being handed out on Halloween, it’s a good time to keep moderation in mind. Nearly 80 percent of parents surveyed report that they have a plan in place to help their children make smart decisions when it comes to the enjoyment of treats. NCA’s moderation guides are a handy way to make sure you treat right on Halloween or any day of the year. Let your children enjoy some candy on Halloween and then portion

The San Clemente News

out two or three treats into small bags for enjoyment later. For school-age children, consider slipping a small piece of candy into their lunch boxes as a fun surprise.

Remember that safety comes first. There are a number of easy ways to make the evening a safe and enjoyable one. Wear lightcolored clothing that’s short enough to prevent tripping and add reflective tape to the sides, front and back of costumes. Trick-or-treat before the sun is completely set and carry a

flashlight in case of delay. Finally, try to stay within your neighborhood and only visit homes you know.

Make a World of Difference on Halloween

This year, Halloween will bring tricks and treats, and teachable moments, too, thanks to Trickor-Treat for UNICEF. Under the guidance of teachers across the nation, thousands of students can learn positive global citizenship values and be empowered to make a difference.

On Halloween, equipped with the knowledge that they can make the world a better place for children, kids can go door-to-door with the iconic orange UNICEF boxes to collect donations that add up to lifesaving change for vulnerable children.

In order to bring the program to classrooms and help educators engage their students, a series of lesson plans were developed on topics like child rights, survival and development. The resources, which include readings, photos, videos, music, maps and games, introduce students to issues affecting the health and well-being of kids around the world, including clean water and sanitation, nutrition and education.

Since 1950, the campaign has raised more than $175 million to help UNICEF provide children with medicine, nutrition, clean water,

emergency relief and education.

Extending the effort In addition to the traditional doorto-door activities, a series of partners and supporters, including HSNi Cares, Key Club International and American Airlines, are also making it easy to participate this year.

This October, all HSNi brands, including Ballard Designs, Chasing Fireflies, Frontgate, Garnet Hill, Grandin Road, HSN, Improvements and TravelSmith, will encourage their customers to make a donation to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF to help save and improve the lives of children around the world. During this time, HSN will match all donations to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF made on the HSN Card up to $100,000.

Exclusively on HSN and HSN.com, customers can purchase the “HSN Cares Designer Quilt.” For each quilt sold on HSN, the company will donate $15 to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. HSN will also feature and sell a range of customer favorites in the HSN Cares U.S. Fund for UNICEF Collection, donating $5 for each product sold in this collection to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. Key Club International will participate

in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF by raising funds for The Eliminate Project, which seeks to eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus, a deadly disease that claims the lives of thousands of babies and mothers each year.

Key Club International, a student-led service leadership program of Kiwanis International, is the oldest and largest service program for high school students. For more information, visit TheEliminateProject.org or KeyClub. org.

American Airlines will support Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF through

UNICEF’s Change for Good program, which converts customers’ donations of foreign and domestic coins into lifesaving services for the world’s most vulnerable children. From Oct. 17–31, American Airlines employee flight attendant volunteers will make a Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF-themed announcement and collect donations from customers on select international flights.

10 smart steps for chainsaw safety

The buzzing, the crack, the call of “timber!” Whether you’re trimming vegetation on your rural property or updating the landscaping by your suburban home, a chainsaw helps you get the job done quickly and efficiently.

Millions of homeowners safely use chainsaws every year, however, it’s important to recognize outdoor power equipment is dangerous. Every person who uses a chainsaw must take precautions to prevent accidents and injuries.

Follow these 10 smart steps to help keep you safe every time you use a chainsaw, from the power equipment experts at Husqvarna: Pause before you begin Before you start working, follow these rules: - Tell someone where you’ll be working.

- Always carry a mobile phone.

- Keep a first aid kit close at hand.

- Park your vehicle so that you can make a quick exit if necessary.

Wear a helmet Whether a professional logger or weekend DIY warrior, you should always wear proper chainsaw safety equipment. A helmet with earmuffs, full-face visor and protective glasses will help protect your entire head, including your eyes and ears.

Dress to protect The most common chainsaw injury is a laceration, an injury that breaks

the skin. The right protective clothing minimizes the risk of laceration and other injuries. When using a chainsaw always wear: - Protective pants or chaps - Forestry jacket/shirt with proper upper body coverage - Protective trousers - Anti-slip boots - Gloves Select a chainsaw with safety features Husqvarna chainsaws combine professional-grade performance with top-of-the-line ergonomics.

Safety features include a kickback guard and chain brake to ensure the chain stops if the saw isn’t handled correctly. A throttle lock allows the saw to only function when you keep pressing a certain button. Finally, a chain catcher stops the chain from flying off in case of chain break or derail.

Get equipment checked If you have a chainsaw, it’s important to have it regularly inspected. A professional inspection will ensure the chainsaw’s safety features are functioning properly. If issues are found, a simple tuneup can correct any problems so you stay safe.

Handle with care Using these proper chainsaw handling techniques will minimize the risk of injury or strain: - Wrap thumbs and fingers completely around the handles and

hold your left-hand thumb under the front handle to reduce the force of a kickback.

- Don’t fear the saw; be confident and hold it close to your body to achieve balance, control and accuracy.

- The optimal working position is with your left foot in front of your right and with your knees bent rather than your back.

- Never rotate the chain when you move to another spot.

- Make sure no one is within 10 feet when you’re working with a chainsaw.

- Never use a chainsaw while on a ladder or around a downed power line.

Secure site safety If you’re cutting down a whole tree, study it to see if it has been damaged by decay or cracks. Is the tree leaning? In which direction will the tree or branch naturally fall? Create a plan and always make sure nobody

is within the distance of at least twice the tree height you’re working on so they’re not susceptible to injury from the fall.

Storage A chainsaw can still cause injury even when not in use, so proper storage is essential. After use, clean the equipment of any debris. Protect your chainsaw from dust and sunlight by using a hard case or protective storage bag. Always store in a location out of the reach of children and other people, ideally in a locked space. If storing for the season, empty the fuel tank and remove the chain to clean and oil.

Refine your skills If you’re not an experienced chainsaw user, practicing can mean learning a host of dangerous habits.

Consider taking a class at your local power equipment dealer.

October is chainsaw safety month - (BPT)

The Trick to Delicious Halloween-Inspired Treats When the fall weather hits, every ghoul, ghost and goblin knows that Halloween is lurking around the corner. To get the whole family in the spirit this season, pick the perfect pumpkin, dress up in the scariest costumes and serve up these frightfully delicious treats.

The Freaky French Toast and Candy Corn Pudding are two kidfriendly dishes that are almost too spooky to eat. The secret ingredient is Limited Edition TruMoo Orange Scream milk. Inspired by an orange frozen pop with vanilla ice cream, this creamy orange milk will surely cast a spell on all those who taste it. Made with wholesome low-fat white milk with no artificial growth hormones or high fructose corn syrup and brought to you by your local, trusted dairy, it’s delicious and nutritious.

Whether you dare to use TruMoo Orange Scream as a colorful ingredient in your favorite Halloween treats, or enjoy it on its own – you’ll be surprised by how quickly it disappears.

For more Halloween-inspired recipes featuring TruMoo Orange Scream, visit TruMoo.com, and find TruMoo Milk on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

Freaky French Toast Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes Servings: 4-6 1 cup TruMoo Orange Scream milk 3 large eggs 2 teaspoons grated orange peel

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 loaf challah bread 3 tablespoons butter, divided confectioners’ sugar warm maple syrup (optional) In large bowl, combine milk, eggs, grated orange peel and cinnamon to blend well. Slice challah bread into 1-inch-thick slices.

In 12-inch skillet over medium heat, melt 1tablespoon butter. Dip bread into milk mixture, letting each side soak for 30 seconds. Add butter to skillet. Over medium heat, cook bread until golden, about 4 minutes on each side. Repeat with remaining butter and bread.

Dust with confectioners’ sugar.

Serve with warm maple syrup.

Candy Corn Pudding Prep Time: 15 minutes Servings: 2 2 cups TruMoo Orange Scream milk 1 box (3.56-ounces) instant white chocolate pudding red and yellow food coloring 1/2 cup whipped cream In large bowl, beat milk and instant pudding with wire whisk or mixer until thickened.

To serve, spoon 1/2 of original color pudding (light orange) into 2 tall dessert glasses. Layer with dark orange pudding. Top each with whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

How to Roast and Use Pumpkins!

Peter Piper Picked a Profoundly Plump Pumpkin -- Now what does he do with it?

How to Roast a Pumpkin You can only do this with a freshly carved pumpkin! Do not use on a pumpkin that has been carved and sitting out for several days.

To bake a fresh 6 to 7 pound pumpkin, halve the pumpkin crosswise and scoop out the seeds and strings. Place halves, hollow side down, in a large baking pan covered with aluminum foil and add a little water. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until fork-tender. Remove. When cool, scrape pulp from shells and puree, a little at time, in food processor or blender. Mix with a little salt.

To freeze pumpkin puree. Put 1-2 cups in freezer bags along with spices and use in pies.

To use pumpkin puree for recipes: Line a strainer with a double layer of cheesecloth or a flour sack dish towel and let the pumpkin sit to drain out the extra moisture BEFORE cooking with it. Pumpkin is very moist, so in order for your recipe to come out correctly, you MUST strain it.

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds Boil seeds in water for 5 minutes.

Drain well. Sprinkle with salt or seasoned salt. Place a thin layer on a cookie sheet. Bake at 250 degrees.

Stir after 30 minutes. Bake 1/2-1 hour

more or until crunchy. *Squash seeds may also be used.

Pumpkin Smoothies 1/2 cup pumpkin 3/4 cup milk or vanilla yogurt 1/4 tsp. cinnamon 1/8 tsp. nutmeg 2 tsp. brown sugar 4 ice cubes whipped cream (optional) sprinkles (optional) Place all ingredients in a blender.

Blend until smooth. Pour into 2-3 glasses. Serve with a small amount of whipped cream on top. You may also add orange sprinkles if you like.

Serves 2-3.

Pumpkin Crunch 1 package yellow cake mix 1 can (15 oz.) solid packed pumpkin 1 can (12 oz.) evaporated milk 3 large eggs 1 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. salt 1/2 cup nuts 1 cup butter, melted Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix pumpkin, milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. Sprinkle dry cake mix over pumpkin mixture. Then sprinkle with nuts. Drizzle with butter.

Bake for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown. Cool, served chilled. Serve with whipped topping.

Homemade Pumpkin Muffins

1 cake mix (any flavor works, but chocolate is our hands down favorite!)

1 can pumpkin or 2 cups mashed cooked pumpkin Beat together with electric mixer until smooth (It will be really thick).

Add 1 cup mini chocolate chips and stir. Line muffin tins with paper muffin cups and spray with non-stick spray.

Use an ice cream scoop to put batter into muffin cups (I can get 24 muffins from one box of mix). Bake at 350 degrees for around 20 minutes. Cool and frost if desired. My family likes them just as they are when they are hot from the oven.

Spice cake mix is great - add white chocolate chips, peanut butter chips or butterscotch chips.

I have made pumpkin muffins with white cake mix and yellow cake mix too. They have around 120 calories apiece with the mini chocolate chips and are virtually fat free. If you are on weight watchers, they only count as 1 point.

This is a fabulous way to sneak some vitamin A rich veggies in on the kids. Just don’t let them see you put the pumpkin into the muffins and they will never know it is there. These are more moist than very expensive name brand double chocolate chip muffins.

Pumpkin Pancakes 2 cups flour 2 Tbsp. brown sugar, packed

1 Tbsp. baking powder 1 1/4 tsp. pumpkin pie spice 1 tsp. salt 1/2 cup pumpkin 1 large egg 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil 1 cup milk 1/2 cup nuts, chopped (optional) Combine ingredients. Stir just until moistened; batter may be lumpy.

Heat griddle or skillet over medium heat. Brush lightly with vegetable oil.

Pour 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle.

Cook until bubbles begin to burst.

Turn and continue cooking 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with Pumpkin Maple Sauce and nuts.

Pumpkin Maple Sauce 1 cup maple syrup 1 1/4 cups pumpkin 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice Mix together until well blended.

Pacific Symphony’s Opening $135,000 Evening of Success

The San Clemente News

Music Director of the Pacific Symphony Carl St. Clair with Susan St. Clair, Michele Forsyte, and John Forsyte, President of the Pacific Photos by Nick Koon Symphony This year’s Pacific Symphony’s “2016-17 Classical Opening Night Celebration and Concert” was a visual homage to music and the talented musicians who bring it to life for our community. Dripping in elegant black and white detail, the event was held at The Westin South Coast Plaza, where the party marked a decade since the orchestra’s move into the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall.

Dressed in black tie attire, the more than 200 guests joined in the grand festivities that included pre-, mid- and post-concert receptions, a three-course dinner and live music performances. The centerpiece of the evening was the first concert of the Hal and Jeanette Segerstrom Family Foundation Classical Series led by Music Director Carl St.Clair and featuring Van Cliburn Gold Medalist Olga Kern in a powerful display of virtuosity during Rachmaninoff’s “Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.”

Hosted by the Board of Directors, the charming affair opening the Symphony’s 38th season raised more than $135,000 to support its artistic and education programs.

“This year, the 10th anniversary of the Symphony’s residence in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall offered the perfect opportunity Pianist Olga Kerns with Music Director of Pacific Symphony Carl St. to celebrate all that the Symphony does for our community,” said Opening Clair Night Event Chair Jo Ellen Chatham who is a longtime supporter of the Symphony. “Acoustically, we have one of the finest concert halls in the world, so we not only get to hear great music, but we hear it in its purity and perfection. And it’s not just about enjoying the music because it’s so beautiful and inspirational, but for what it does for the human soul.”

Reveling in anticipation of the concert and season to come, partygoers arrived on a red carpet where PBS SoCal’s Maria Hall-Brown and her video crew added to the excitement of the evening, reporting as she did when the hall opened 10 years ago.

Friends reconnected and reminisced during the cocktail reception while enjoying the sounds of Third Wheel Trio. Guests cozied up against silver and black draped high-top tables and posed for photos among beautiful white paper roses. Tasty tray-passed appetizers included tangerine glazed ahi tuna with wonton chips; dried pear, brie and walnut quesadillas; and petite tender crostinis with blue cheese crumbles and caramelized shallot aioli.

Attendees entered the ballroom and took their seats at black and white tables decorated with white roses and tulips with green foliage, musical scores and tall black candles in glass cylinder vases.

Each guest was presented with a rare CD (only 300 copies made) of Trumpeters in front of Renee & Jane Lee and Benedict Kwon Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall Pacific Symphony performing two pieces recorded live in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall: Mozart’s Overture to “The Marriage of Figaro” and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7.

The dinner served was just delightful, with the first course: a caprese salad with yellow and red beets, mozzarella cheese, balsamic drizzle and Hawaiian pink sea salt. The main entrée was a delicious Chilean sea bass with miso glaze and black truffle risotto, prepared with shiitake, Portobello and cremini mushrooms, plus asparagus and carrots. Dessert added a triple-sweet note to the first part of the evening with a decadent trio of chocolate blackberry mousse in a dark chocolate cup on chocolate sand, fresh berry sorbet and pistachio crème brûlée.

Guests then made their way to the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall for Pacific Symphony’s concert. The program opened with Dvorák’s celebratory “Carnival Overture” followed by pianist Olga Kern’s tour-de-force performance of Rachmaninoff’s “Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.”

After the concert, all were welcomed back to The Westin’s poolside Terrace Pavilion to enjoy champagne and a decadent display of luxurious desserts.

Many Symphony musicians joined in the fun, and guest star Olga Kern made a special appearance. For more information, visit www.pacificsymphony.org Maria Hall-Brown with Event Co-chair Jo Ellen Chatham, John Forsyte, President of the Pacific Symphony and Event Co-chair Joann Leatherby Page 12

Segerstrom Center Offers More Free Dance and Music Classes for Children with Disabilities Photo by Doug Gifford Following the enthusiastic reception to last spring’s dance classes for children with disabilities, Segerstrom Center for the Arts will hold two additional sessions on Friday, November 11. The classes are free and have been developed for children with special needs such as those who are visually impaired, have autism, cerebral palsy, Downs Syndrome or other complex needs.

These classes combine dance, movement and music with plenty of sensory experiences to ensure that children have fun while exercising and improving balance, coordination, and confidence through personal and social growth.

The 10 a.m. session will be for children 4-6 years of age and the 3:30 p.m. session will be for 7-12 year-olds. Both are 45 minutes to an hour in length and will be held in one of the Center’s dance studios. The teaching teams include an experienced dance teacher, a

licensed physical or occupational therapist and a professional musician.

The environment is relaxed and informal, so children should wear clothes that are comfortable for moving about. Each child must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, who will have this time to relax and enjoy the class.

Center President Terrence W. Dwyer said, “The power of the arts to transform lives can be amazing.

We’ve seen the positive effects these classes have had on other children – smiles, a sense of wonder and discovery. These and other programs offered in our Center for Dance and Innovation are expanding how we think about the arts and how we can use them in innovative ways to improve lives.”

For more information about these workshops for children with disabilities, contact Susan Marie Kendall in the Center’s Community Engagement Department at smkendall@scfta.org or 714.556.2122, 4337.

Segerstrom Center for the Arts is an acclaimed arts institution as well as a beautiful multi-disciplinary cultural campus. It is committed to supporting artistic excellence on all of its stages, offering unsurpassed experiences, and to engaging the entire community in new and exciting ways through the unique power of

Mummy

FAMILY FEATURES

pooky, silly or symbolic, carved pumpkins are an essential ingredient to any Halloween celebration. This year, scare up some special fun for your party with a wicked watermelon carving, instead – but don’t stop there.

After crafting your watermelon into an artful mummy, take advantage of the healthy, immune-system supporting qualities of the lycopene leader among fresh produce. At 92 percent water, as well as an excellent source of vitamins A and C, watermelon is a hydrating post-art snack.

Carving a creative design into a watermelon is a simple way to kick off the festivities and requires only a handful of common tools. Add a twinkling candle to make a fantastically frightful centerpiece.

Or fill it with a fresh fruit salad or salsas for a more functional, practical approach.

Even if you’re planning on a hollowedout carving, keep the sweet juicy fruit and make it a healthy addition to your Halloween party menu with a recipe that puts to use all your carving leftovers.

To take advantage of all a watermelon has to offer – outside of the fun carving – try Frosted, Frozen Watermelon Balls or Kids Watermelon Pizza Supreme.

These fun, simple recipes make it easy to incorporate a healthy snack after all your hard work carving up a Halloween masterpiece.

Find more recipes, carving patterns and inspiration at watermelon.org.

Carving Tips n

Prior to carving, read through all of the directions.

Cuts are easiest when the watermelon is at room temperature.

Once your handiwork is complete, chill the carving and contents before serving.

After drawing your design on the rind, insert toothpicks in key places to guide your cuts.

A sharp knife with a pointed tip makes the easiest, cleanest cuts.

Remove excess flesh in large pieces, when possible, to allow for easier melon ball or cube creation.

Use round toothpicks or skewers to attach pieces to your design as flat toothpicks are not strong enough to bear the weight or stand up to the thickness of the rind.

Supplies and Tools: Oval or round seedless watermelon Cutting board Kitchen knife Small bowl Dry erase marker Paring knife Melon baller, fluted or regular Scoop Assorted peelers Cheesecloth Straight pin Battery-operated candle or light Candy eyeballs or blueberries

Wash watermelon under cool running water and pat dry.

On cutting board, place watermelon on its side and use kitchen knife to cut off 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch from bottom (end opposite stem), being careful not to cut too deep into white part of rind.

Cut 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch from stem end to create opening large enough to fit small bowl.

Using dry erase marker, draw eyes, nose and mouth, along with wavy slits around carving to let more light flow through. Use paring knife to cut out design, being sure to cut through to red fruit.

The San Clemente News

Use fluted or regular melon baller to hollow out inside of watermelon. Use scoop to remove excess watermelon.

Peel green rind off outside of watermelon. (Tip: Different peelers work well for different parts of the watermelon, depending on how flat or round the melon is.)

Wrap thin strips of cheesecloth around mummy carving and secure with straight pin, if needed.

Put battery-operated candle or light into carving. Fit small bowl into top of carving and trim away excess rind to make bowl fit securely. Fill bowl with melon balls and attach candy or blueberries to make eyes.

Kids Watermelon Pizza Supreme

Servings: 6 1 watermelon slice (8-10 inches around and 1-inch thick), drained 1 cup strawberry preserves 1/2 cup white chocolate chips 1/2 cup raisins 1/2 cup chopped walnuts 1 cup sweetened shredded coconuts Place watermelon slice on serving platter and cut into 6 wedges, leaving in shape of pizza.

Spread preserves over watermelon and sprinkle chocolate chips, raisins, walnuts and coconut.

Frosted, Frozen Watermelon Balls

Choosing a Watermelon

With a thick rind covering the fruit inside, you may wonder how to choose the best watermelon at the market. Here are some tips for picking the perfect one: n Look it over. Look for a round, oval or oblong shaped watermelon that is free from bruises, cuts or dents. n Lift it up. The watermelon should be heavy for its size. On average, a 5-pound watermelon yields 15 cups of edible fruit. n Turn it over. The underside of the watermelon should have a creamy yellow spot from where it sat on the ground and ripened in the sun.

Page 18

The San Clemente News

Servings: 35-40 1 small watermelon 1 package (3 ounces) watermelon or other red flavor gelatin dessert Using melon baller, scoop out 35-40 small watermelon balls.

Place on paper towels and set aside.

Pour gelatin into shallow bowl.

One-by-one, gently drop watermelon balls into bowl, roll around, take out and place on plate covered with paper towel.

Repeat until all gelatin is used.

Place plate of frosted watermelon balls in freezer. Allow at least 2 hours to make sure they are completely frozen. Remove from freezer and let sit a few minutes before eating.

Note: To serve with toothpicks, place toothpicks in before freezing to aid in serving.
