Four-step PLAN Helps Shoppers Save on holiday shopping Retailers call the day after Thanksgiving “Black Friday,” because the holiday spending that happens that day generally moves their balance sheet into profitability and “the black.” Barbara Stark, director of community development and education at the national non-profit American Debt Counseling, Inc., serving clients throughout California, recommends following her simple, four-step P.L.A.N. during the holiday shopping season to keep your holiday budget in the black as well. “Retailers offer all kinds of deals to kick-start their all-important holiday sales numbers,” Stark explains. “The key is to have your own game plan for the day so that you take advantage of the opportunities to save on your holiday shopping without being tempted to spend more than you should.” Stark recommends following her simple four-step P.L.A.N.: Prepare a strategy that puts your financial resources to their best use. Realistically outline your holiday obligations and how much you have to spend. Just like at the grocery store, you’ll spend more at the mall without a list. Next, decide what gifts on your list are “must have” and set your
sights on getting them for the best price while they are still available. Layaway is a good alternative to credit cards for expensive purchases if the store or online site’s fee is less than 10 percent of the value of the items. You can reap the same bargains and enjoy the same selection as shopping on credit as well as the added bonus of knowing it is all paid for when you take it home. Layaway is also a good way to curb impulse buying later in the holiday season by enabling you to buy the gift you really want at a good price. Each store has its own rules and it is important to read the fine print carefully to be sure you understand the fees and cancellation policies. Avoid using credit. Shoppers spend 30% more on average when shopping with credit cards rather than cash. Also think twice before opening a new line of credit for a discount on that day’s purchases since any fees associated with a new credit card can end up costing you more than the money you’re saving. Cash, checks and debit cards are the best choice, but if you must use credit, choose the card that gives you the lowest inter-
est rate and most benefits, such as reward points or extended warranties. Navigate the deals. In their efforts to get you into their stores and not the competitions’, retailers advertise their sales. Many post them online as well as place ads in the paper. There are also internet sites devoted
to announcing Black Friday sales in advance. Some stores open early or even on Thanksgiving Day and you should begin looking for the deals at the start of Thanksgiving week to be ready to put your holiday shopping and savings PLAN into action.
Festival of Trees brings the holidays home and helps local families A holiday tradition of hope continues at the Hotel in Newport Beach as South County Outreach is presenting its 3rd annual Festival of Trees event on Dec. 8, 2016 to raise funds to fight hunger and homelessness. The Fairmont hotel in Newport Beach will be transformed into a winter wonderland with elaborately decorated trees, each with its own unique theme. Each year the trees are sponsored by businesses, organizations or individuals and were the centerpieces of the Silver and Gold Reception and tree auction. The Bowen Team of Re/Max Real Estate has been a tree sponsor with wonderful themes including Frozen and Culinary Christmas. The Silver and Gold Reception on December 8, from 6:30 pm to 9 pm, features wine, hors d’ oeuvres and seasonal entertainment in addition to the live auction during which the spectacular trees were sold to support South County Outreach programs housing, food and workforce training Page 6
programs Orange County. “Festival of Trees is a wonderful start to the holiday season. I cannot think of another location in Orange County that has this many one of a kind trees. Children love to visit the lobby to choose a favorite. And it highlights the need to fight homelessness and bring hope for the holidays because without a home there is no place for a tree and joy is in short supply,” said South County Outreach Executive Director Lära Fisher. Tickets to attend the Silver and Gold Reception are $100. The trees are on display for all of Orange County to enjoy beginning November 19. For more information on South County Outreach, visit www.scooc.org or call 949-380-8144. The organization has many opportunities for business involvement, individual volunteering and is always happy to help organize food drives.

Step It Up Put a fresh take on post-holiday sandwiches For most people, the day after a big holiday gathering means two things: a refrigerator filled with opportunity and a marked lack of energy. Fortunately, there are easy ways to make the most of the remnants of your holiday meal so you can take it easy and enjoy a day filled with good food and good rest. Sandwiches are a natural solution for post-holiday noshing, but all those exceptional entrees practically beg for one last chance to shine. Put a fresh, wholesome twist on this year’s sandwiches by ditching the traditional condiments and dressing up your bread with a new kind of spread. New hummus-based Sabra Spreads – available in Garlic Herb, Honey Mustard and Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper – have 75 percent less fat than the leading spread, mayonnaise, and pair perfectly with sandwiches and wraps of all kinds. Make an upgrade with these stepped-up takes on the traditional turkey sandwich and more, and find additional mouthwatering inspiration at Sabra.com.

In mixing bowl, combine beets, sesame oil and tarragon then spread on baking sheet. Roast until beets are tender and browned in areas, about 25-30 minutes. While beets are roasting, use same mixing bowl to prepare spread. Stir together spread, tarragon, salt and pepper. Cover bowl and store in refrigerator until beets are ready. Remove beets from oven and allow to cool slightly before assembling sandwiches. Slice rolls in half and spread garlic tarragon spread on inside of each roll. Top bottom half of roll with beets, apple slices, micro greens and red onion, then top with remaining half of bun.

Place on baking sheet and bake 15-20 minutes, or until internal temperature is 165 F, flipping chicken at halfway mark. In toaster oven, toast waffles until warm and crisp. Cut into fourths and top with spinach and 1/2 tablespoon honey mustard spread. Cut chicken tenders in half and place atop waffles. Top with another waffle quarter. Garnish with rosemary and serve with maple syrup.

Remove mushroom caps from bowl and place on plate. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper and smoked paprika. Gently coat grill, grill pan or large skillet with olive oil or nonstick spray and heat over medium heat.

Judging from the number of decorating crews working in the local area neighborhoods, it appears that the holiday season is fast coming upon us. In times past, many homeowners would bring out their own ladders , go to the store and purchase their own lighting to hang on their homes. However, in recent times, many homeowners opt to hire a crew of professionals who are well-equipped to race up and down scaffolding and ladders to hang the decorating lights, arrange the electronics and timers to make the holidays much happier. these professionals make this task much simpler and exceptionally quicker. A two-story house shown in the photo above,was recently decorated with a complete array of lighting and installation and under one hour.another great selling point

Virtual Experiential Demonstrations Highlight SEMA Show
By Ilene Schneider photography William Casper The hottest trends in Virtual Reality (VR) video and Augmented Reality (AR) video got rave reviews at the 2016 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center November 1 to 4. Attendees saw a series of automotive-themed experiential demonstrations and learned how the technology can be applied to all areas of automotive aftermarket product sales, marketing and development. The SEMA VR Experience featured live VR broadcasting, 360-degree video and fully immersive VR and AR experiences. It included a 360-degree video presentation of the Diamond Bar, CA-based SEMA Garage, including a tour of the Installation Center, Emissions Lab, Photo Studio, 3D Scanner and 3D Printer. VR and related technology such as augmented reality, which powers Pokeman Go, are quickly being used as sales tools and influencing customer behavior. “The SEMA Garage 360-degree video tour is a great reason in and of itself to check out all of the cutting edge demonstrations at the SEMA VR Experience,” said Peter MacGillivray, SEMA VP of events. “The added bonus is that SEMA attendees could experience how virtual reality and augmented reality work, and learn how these new experiential video technologies can benefit their bottom line.” SEMA, a nonprofit trade association founded in 1963, has been producing the trade show since 1967. Fifty years ago a few companies got together to see if they could sell more parts if they worked together. The resulting cooperation has turned into SEMA. Members are driven by their passion for cars, trucks and SUVs. The annual event brings together a diverse group of manufacturers and buyers within the automotive specialty equipment industry. Featured products enhance the styling, functionality, comfort, convenience and safety of cars and trucks. The SEMA Show attracts more than 100,000 industry leaders from more than 100 countries for unlimited profit opportunities in the automotive, truck and SUV, power sports and
RV markets. The 2016 SEMA Show drew more than 60,000 domestic and international buyers. Because SEMA is Southern California’s biggest off-road vehicle show, thousands of off-road enthusiasts are in attendance. The show has every conceivable product, from lift kits to lowering kits and giant tires to lowrider paint. Tool vendors had something for everyone. There were rechargeable tools, hand tools and equipment for the shops of both hobbyists and professionals. Rugged Ridge, which manufactures Jeep, truck and off-road accessories, introduced a new Modular Light Bar for ’07–’16 Jeep Wrangler JK and JKU models. It can arrange and configure lights, trail mirrors, camera mounts and accessories in countless arrangements, for ultimate versatility based on any Jeep owner’s exact needs. Mercury Racing revealed its new SB4 7.0 (small block – four valve) automotive aftermarket crate engine. The naturally aspirated, 7.0 Liter engine features Mercury Racing’s exclusive aluminum four valve cylinder heads and dual overhead camshaft valve train integrated with a LS cylinder block packed with Mercury Racing spec hardware. This proven valve train enables the engine to produce a staggering 775 horsepower at 7500 RPM on pump fuel. The displays were divided into 12 sections. A New Products Showcase featured nearly 2,500 newly introduced parts, tools and components. In addition, the SEMA Show provides attendees with educational seminars, product demonstrations, special events, networking opportunities and more… The top trending vehicle models in five categories were announced at the show. Selected by the show’s manufacturing e x h i b i t o r s , t h e S E M A Aw a r d winners were the Ford Mustang as the Hottest Coupe, the Dodge Charger as the Hottest Sedan, the Ford Focus as the Hottest Hatch, the Jeep Wrangler as the hottest 4x4-SUV, and the Ford F-Series as the Hottest Truck.

The black-tie Senior Care Hero Awards gala “Finishing Strong” featured a beautiful red carpet welcome and cocktail hour with silent auction followed by an Academy Awards-inspired program, dinner and entertainment by The Dave Stephens Band. Emmy-award winning broadcaster Patrice King Brown served as guest host and event chair was founder and CEO of Dupont Residential Care and Assured InHome Care, Jacqueline Dupont, Ph.D., MSG, MPA. Special honorees named prior to event included Lifetime Achievement awardee John Kao, President and CEO of Alignment Healthcare; Senior Care Hero Humanitarian awardee Vincent Nguyen, D.O., C.M.D., Program Director, CARES/Palliative Care Program, Hoag Memorial Hospital and Senior Hero “Champion” awardee Olympian Greta Andersen, Orange County swimmer who participated in the 1948 (Gold medalist) and 1952 Olympics. Announcing like an Oscar-award format, Senior Care Heroes who were presented awards included: Outstanding Caregiver – Shelia Hubbard; Outstanding Nurse – Joyce Brown; Outstanding Social Worker – Angelique Ellingboe; Outstanding Physician – Dr. John Zamarra; Outstanding Executive Director – Anwar M. Saeed and Outstanding Senior Care Professional Fredy Dominguez. People’s Choice Heroes included: Senior Hero – Brenda Smith; Volunteer Hero – Helen Lynn; Family Member Hero - Dennis Wills and Veteran Hero - Alfonzo Jackson. An entertaining yet thought-provoking presentation was given by SeniorServ CEO Holly Hagler comparing the trials and efforts experienced by Olympians to the roles that caregivers play. She creatively explained that while those in senior support roles don’t consider themselves heroes, being “champions” for seniors can most definitely be considered heroic. Auctioneer Jim Nye led the live auction by auctioning an Ultimate Fenway Park experience. With the combined efforts of former MLB player and sports broadcaster Steve Lyons, Paul Gaarenstroom and SeniorServ Board of Directors, the package featured a private tour of Fenway Park, personal escort by Steve Lyons on the field for a meet and greet with Red Sox players, visit to the Red Sox dugout and a spot next to Lyons after his pre-game show. The package - which raised $4500 - also included roundtrip airfare for two from Southern California to Boston and a three-night stay at the Hyatt Place. A general fund-a-need ask followed the live auction and the combined efforts brought in $122,000. As the largest nonprofit Meals on Wheels senior nutrition and supportive service provider in Orange County, SeniorServ nourishes the wellness, purpose, and dignity of seniors and their families in our community. Community SeniorServ dba SeniorServ was incorporated in 1967 and merged with Feedback Foundation and Senior Meals and Services in 2006 to create a new agency with greater capacity, energy, resources, and vision for the sole purpose of meeting the increasingly diverse needs of the elderly population.

T i p s f o r Sm a r t e r S h o p p i n g Whether you’re in the market for the newest gadget or stocking up on sports goods for the whole family, getting the most bang for your buck is top of mind for many families. But obtaining those quality, dependable products you need at the best price can be tricky. With so many shopping outlets available – from online stores to physical locations – it can be difficult to know if you’re getting the product that suits your needs at a price that fits within your budget. The following tips help consumers go into a store educated, so they can stretch their dollar and get exactly what they’re after. Plan it out. Knowing exactly what you want before you shop will help you avoid overspending on extra things you don’t need. Ask around to see if friends, family or co-workers have experience with the product and what they recommend. Research the products you want and have a specific model in mind before you buy and you’ll avoid leaving a store or submitting your online cart with items you may later regret buying. Invest in your new merchandise. Whether it’s a drop, spill or other mishap, life has a way of ruining your favorite goods. Protect your investment with a coverage plan such as SIMPLR, which is a consumer-friendly, hassle-free way to protect your products if they should stop working. The plan also covers sporting goods such as treadmills, golf clubs, sunglasses and other purchases from your local Sports Authority store, so you can always be sure to have what you need for your next outdoor adventure.
Become familiar with internet tools. Various sites and apps are available to help you find the best deals around. Before you buy, it’s important to review ratings for the product – from both consumers like you and professional reviewers. Many sites also allow you to comparison shop for items. Download these apps on your smartphone so you can compare prices while you’re out and about scoping out deals. Know your seller. Understand the refund, return and warranty policies from the seller before you make your purchase. Do you have protection in case the item breaks? Some retailers, such as Sports Authority offer SIMPLR, a coverage plan which makes the process of returning a broken
product easy with no deductibles, out-of-pocket repair costs or additional fees. To learn more, visit www.simplrplan.com. Shop mindfully. Because your emotions can sway your purchases, always make sure to shop when you’re in the right frame of mind. A rough day at work or an upset in your personal life may cause you to indulge with an “I deserve this” mentality. Finding exactly what you need at the price that fits your budget comes with the right planning, research and tools. Become a smarter shopper and you’ll never have to sacrifice quality on all the things you need for all of your daily adventures. Photo courtesy of Getty Images
Celebrate 100 years of majesty with a visit to a national park Insider tips for a weekend at a national park site It has been 100 years since an important American institution was born. On August 25, 1916, the National Park Service was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson and was established as a new federal bureau to oversee the country’s national parks and monuments. Since then, the national park system has grown to encompass more than 400 areas covering more than 84 million acres in every state. With that act, grand sweeps of mountains, canyons, forests, islands and seashores were preserved and made accessible to people of all ages and abilities. Whether you are looking for back-country skiing down a mountain or just a scenic afternoon drive, our national park system has plenty of resources and infrastructure to make a visit enjoyable and memorable to just about anyone. It was John Muir, a naturalist and early parks advocate who said it best: “Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity; and that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life.” No matter where you live,
there’s a good chance one of these mesmerizing landscapes or historical monuments is just a quick road trip away. However, while millions will visit these majestic spots each year, few realize a major challenge faces national parks across the country waste. The National Park Service manages more than 100 million pounds of waste nationally, much of which is generated by serving more than 300 million park visitors per year - that’s enough to fill the Statue of Liberty more than 1,800 times. While waste is a major issue in the parks, visitors can make a difference. Subaru of America, experts in zero-landfill sustainability, is sharing its knowledge of these practices with the National Parks to help keep the parks beautiful for the next century. As part of that effort, the automaker, alongside National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA), has developed a set of tips that visitors can adopt to help reduce some of the biggest contributors to landfills from national parks, including paper, plastics and glass: Opt for online: While paper maps can be a park staple, there are smartphone apps that provide the same information and more. Even without cell service, some national park apps will give helpful information
about where you can spot wildlife, catch a beautiful sunset, or even find a refillable water station. Mug for the parks: Bring a reusable coffee mug from home or buy one from the souvenir shop to help reduce the 58 billion paper cups that are sent to America’s landfills every year. BYOB (Bring Your Own Bottle): Americans throw away 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour. Keep a refillable water bottle on hand or buy one at gift shop, while taking advantage of convenient refilling stations around the park. Ditch the Plastic Bag: Help reduce waste by not using a plastic bag for
your souvenirs or groceries that you bring into the parks. Instead, bring your own reusable bag or tote for your items to help eliminate plastic bag waste. Take Out What You Bring in: Think about what you bring in. Check to see if it can be recycled or composted in the park you are visiting. If it cannot, try to take it home. It is often far easier to recycle near your home than in rural park areas. If you are interested in learning more about Subaru’s efforts or what you can do to help make a positive impact for generations to come, visit subaru.com/environment. - (BPT)

Stop Men Dying Too Young And Join The Movement For Men’s Health With The Movember Foundation
The current state of men’s health is in crisis. Too many men are dying too young; on average six years younger than women. Today, the Movember Foundation, launches its 2016 campaign to Mo Bro’s and Mo Sista’s across the nation, encouraging men and women to raise funds for men’s health and stop men dying too young. This Movember the Foundation is challenging men to Grow a moustache, or for both men and women to Move and make a commitment to get active, or Host an event. Choose how you’ll get involved, spread the word, start a conversation, and have fun while doing good. “We are extremely happy to embark on another moustache-filled Movember this year and get others to join the fight to help stop men dying too young,” said Mark Hedstrom, SVP of Global Operations at the Movember Foundation. “Many of our fathers, partners, brothers and friends are facing a health crisis in the areas of prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health, and without people talking, and taking action, nothing will change. The Movember Foundation understands this, and by sparking conversations and engaging with men where they are, we hope to drive this change.” The Movember Foundation wants men alive, well and enjoying life.
Since 2003, the Foundation has raised more than $710 million and funded 1,200 breakthrough men’s health projects in 21 countries for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention, while positively challenging the way in which men’s health issues are addressed. Men are dying too young, and the rates of these casualties are staggering: Prostate Cancer: In the U.S., prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men in the United States. Statistics show that 1 in 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Testicular Cancer: Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men aged 15-34. And, unfortunately, the rate of men diagnosed with testicular cancer has doubled in the last 50 years. About 8,720 new cases of testicular cancer are diagnosed in men each year. Mental Health: Untreated mental health conditions can carry a high risk for suicide among men. More than three times as many men as women die by suicide in the U.S. And on average 87 men each day take their life by suicide. The Movember Foundation is committed to keeping things fresh, keeping the community informed, and remaining transparent and

ELF THE MUSICAL COMES TO COSTA MESA FOR THE EXCLUSIVE ORANGE COUNTY PREMIERE NETworks Presentations, LLC and Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures bring the Broadway musical ELF to Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa for the exclusive Orange County premiere December 20, 2016 – January 1, 2017. ELF is the hilarious tale of Buddy, a young orphan child who mistakenly crawls into Santa’s bag of gifts and is transported back to the North Pole. Unaware that he is actually human, Buddy’s enormous size and poor toy-making abilities cause him to face the truth. With Santa’s permission, Buddy embarks on a journey to New York City to find his birth father, discover his true identity and help New York remember the true meaning of Christmas. This modern day Christmas classic is sure to make everyone embrace their inner ELF. Tickets to ELF THE MUSICAL start at $29 and are available online at SCFTA.org, by calling (714) 5562787 and at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa. For inquiries about group ticket savings for 10 or more, please call the Group Services office at (714) 755-0236. The 2 p.m. performance on Saturday, December 31, 2016 will include
audio description, open captioning and sign-language interpretation. The Center offers many services for patrons with disabilities including removable wheelchair locations, binoculars and assistive listening devices. To learn more visit SCFTA. org/accessibilityinformation. Based on the beloved 2003 New Line Cinema hit, ELF features songs by Tony Award nominees Matthew Sklar and Chad Beguelin (The Wedding Singer), with a book by Tony Award winners Thomas Meehan (Annie, The Producers, Hairspray) and Bob Martin (The Drowsy Chaperone). The production will feature direction by Sam Scalamoni and choreography by Connor Gallagher. Casting will be announced at a later date. The New York Times says that ELF is “A SPLASHY, PEPPY, SUGAR-SPRINKLED HOLIDAY ENTERTAINMENT!” USA Today calls ELF “ENDEARINGLY GOOFY!” Variety proclaims, “ELF is happy enough for families, savvy enough for city kids and plenty smart for adults!” Additional information about ELF is available at www. ElfTheMusicalOnTour.com.

Did you know that according to a 2015 survey conducted by the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, nearly as many aesthetically-oriented consumers are bothered by their double chin (67%) as by lines and wrinkles around the eyes (69%)? In fact, the condition even has a name - submental fullness, or fat under the chin. It can make you look older and heavier, and it can be difficult to get rid of on your own. Because submental fullness can be influenced by multiple factors – such as genetics, weight gain and aging – sometimes, no matter how much you diet or exercise, your double chin may not go away.

Once destroyed, those cells can no longer store or accumulate fat. KYBELLA® can cause serious side effects, including nerve injury in the jaw (which can cause an uneven smile or facial muscle weakness), and trouble swallowing. The most common side effects are swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, redness, and areas of hardness in the treatment area.
