German shepherds to gerbils: How to choose the best pet for your family Whether a loyal pal like Lassie is what you’re looking for, or a Garfieldlike couch potato is more your speed, a pet can make a wonderful addition to your family. But there is more to choosing a new pet than simply falling in love with a cute face. Making an informed and well-researched decision can lead to a happy home life for both you and your pet. One of the most important things to know is that all pets are awesome. They have the potential to be great family members. It all boils down to what you want the animal for, the demands of the animal, and the husbandry and expenses associated with that animal. The priority is the family needs to decide the type of time they have available for the animal. The family also needs to look at its capability to provide the appropriate exercise, living quarters and temperament. Sometimes people are mismatched with the animals they choose, and shelters are filled with young dogs that did nothing wrong. They were just a poor match for their owners. The energy of the animal is an important factor to consider. For any species, understanding how much energy that animal has is important. For example, a border collie wouldn’t be good for people working 16 hours a day, while great Danes tend to make great apartment dogs since they generally lay around a lot. Your family must be able to meet the energy needs of the animal. If you work long hours, a cat would be a better choice than a dog, but it’s important to remember that cats also need companionship. For families that aren’t home much, a fish,

hamster, gerbil, rat or ferret would be better choices. Puppies will require exercise and obedience training, which will require more time than an older dog or other types of animals. Temperament is another key area, especially when looking at breeds of dogs. People often look at puppies as the ideal dog for their small children, but this isn’t the case. A puppy for children younger than 5 is not recommended and that the puppy cowering in the back of the litter is the worst to pick for children. The cost of owning a pet goes beyond the initial purchase of the animal. An animal like a hamster will require an initial purchase of a cage, wheel and food, while a dog will require a collar, leash, obedience lessons, a kennel and food, among other things. The amount an animal eats will also greatly affect the cost of ownership. All animals should be seen by a veterinarian at least once a year. A relationship with a veterinarian is just as profound as a relationship with a

lawyer or regular doctor. Don’t forget to look at the health of your own family. If you have individuals with allergies, certain breeds and species of animals are better. There are even dogs that are hypo-allergenic. Think about how clean you want your home if you are bothered by cat or dog hair. You can’t confine an animal to a mud room or basement. Before deciding on any pet, research is key. The biggest thing is you have to do your research and think about the needs of the animal. It’s not about you, it’s about the animal. It’s going to need your time, love and attention. For dogs, talk with breeders, people who own that breed, and research breeds on sites like the American Kennel Club website, which contains info on all breeds of dogs. If you’re adopting an animal, many rescue groups and shelters do an excellent job of assessing temperament. These shelters will know if an animal is good with children and other animals.

There is a certain enthusiasm in liberty, that makes human nature rise above itself, in acts of bravery and heroism. ~ Alexander Hamilton

November is Movember for mens health

November, in some circles, has come to be known as Movember, after the month long event that takes place now around the world, to raise awareness for prostate and testicular cancer — diseases that significantly affect men around the world. The idea behind Movember is that participants sign up donors, then shave on Nov 1st. Typically you leave a mustache — “Mo” in Australian slang — but some men prefer to go clean-shaven and grow a beard.) After that, you don’t shave again until Dec 1st. As a result, November has also come to be known by some people as “beard-growing month.” Movember, the organization, was declared by Global Journal as one of the top 100 non-government organizations (NGOs) in the world — out of around 5M NGOs worldwide. The event has become a huge success since the first event’s 30 participants — known as “Mo Bros” and “Mo Sistas.” A similar organization, Noshember (No Shave November), offers an alternative fullmonth of November event to grow a beard while raising awareness for prostate cancer and MS. Facial Hair and Shaving — The Numbers 14-16 years old is the average age at first shave in the USA 33% of men have facial hair in the USA. 33% of American men have facial hair, according to one source, which conflicts with the next figure — possibly due to survey methods. Since 55% of males worldwide supposedly have facial hair, it seems Americans tend towards the cleanshaven look. 75-90% of American men shave their face regularly (once a day) — meaning either a partial or full shave. Some men are seasonal shavers. 1.3 billion men worldwide shave with a traditional blade and razor. Women apparently find full-bearded men have 2/3 the attraction factor compared to clean-shaven men. However, women find full-bearded men to be “older, more-respected, powerful, of a higher status”. Or if you ask someone else, they’ll say beards are hot. 92% of 10,000 participants in online survey said that beards are “hot”. The survey conducted by IFC (Independent Film Channel) for their reality TV show Whisker Wars, so the chances that most participants already like facial hair are very high, in comparison to the wider American populace. 98% of the Forbes 100 list of world’s richest men who are cleanshaven (2012). (Maybe they own shares in men’s hygiene product companies?) 5-7 is the approximate number of shaves the average American shaving male gets out of a disposable razor. Some cold-water-shaving enthusiasts say that warm water warps blades, causing them to dull faster. 20,000 is the number of shaves in an average man’s lifetime. That’s just under 55 years of shaving once a day for 365 days per year. 3.5 minutes is the average length of a shave. 4,000 is the approximate number of

razors bought in an average lifetime, based on 20,000 shaves / lifetime and about 5 shaves / razor. The 5th most-shoplifted item in the USA is razors. 2.7% of store inventory losses come from pilfered shaving products. There are 3 types of razors: straight, safety and electric, plus variations of the latter two. 2B disposable razors are tossed out each year in the USA. 94M American men 15 years of age or older are shavers (varying frequencies). $10.8M in angel and venture capital funding was given to online service Dollar Shave Club in 2012. 12M is the approximate number of views that DollarShaveClub.com’s YouTube video has received, at the time of this writing. 15-20,000 is the average number of facial hairs on a man. It takes on average about 150 strokes per shave for a clean shave — according to sources quoting Gillette. 2 is the number of centuries in age of Truefitt & Hill barbershop in London, England (established 1805). 20,000 heads are shaven daily at the Sri Venkateswara Temple in India – the world’s biggest barbershop. 500 tons (imperial) of human hair is shaved off yearly at the Sri Venkateswara Temple. 14 feet is the length of the world’s longest mustache, belonging to Ram Singh Chauhan, who has appeared in a number of movies, including the James Bond film Octopussy. 32 is the number of years that Chauhan hasn’t trimmed his ‘stache. 0.5 inches is the approximate rate that, on average, male facial hair grows per month. That’s about 5.5 inches per year. 7.78 feet (2.37 meters) is the length of the longest beard of a living man, sported by Sarwan Singh (as measured in March 2010 for the 2012 Guinness Book). 18.5 feet is the length of Hans Langseth’s beard was when he died in 1927. Part of the beard was donated to the Smithsonian in 1967. 11 inches is the approximate length (actual: 10.98) of the longest female beard on record, measured on Vivian Wheeler in 2000. Movember — The Numbers Some general facts about Movember and testicular and prostate cancer: World wide event which takes place during the month of November, to raise awareness for testicular and prostate cancer. ‘Mo’ is Australian slang for moustache. 2003 — The year this worldwide event, started in Melbourne, Australia. 1 in 6 American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point in their life. 660 American men are diagnosed with prostate cancer each day. 90% is the cure rate of prostate cancer, if detected early and treated in time. 15 minutes is the average interval before another American male dies of prostate cancer. How many participants in

Movember? 3.05M men and women participated over all years 2003-2012 campaigns. Here’s a yearly breakdown: 2003 – 30 participants 2004 – 450 2005 – 9,315 2006 – 56,219 2007 – 134,171 2008 – 173,435 2009 – 255,722 2010 – 447,808 2011 – 854,288 2012 – 1.1M participants How many countries participate? There are now 21 participating countries, who joined as follows: 2003 — Movember starts in Australia. 2006 — New Zealand joins. 2007 — US, UK, Canada and Spain join. 2008 — Ireland joins. 2010 — South Africa, Finland, The Netherlands and the Czech Republic join. 2011 — Belgium, Denmark, and Norway join. 2012 — Austria, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, Sweden and Switzerland join. How much money raised? The yearly amounts below are in AUS$ (Australian dollars), except where stated: 2003 – $0 2004 – 54K 2005 – 1.2M 2006 – 9.3M 2007 – 21.5M = USD$20.2M 2008 – 29.7M = USD$22M 2009 – 44.3M = USD$42.3M 2010 – 72M = USD$80.7M 2011 – 124M = USD$126.3M 2012 – 141.5M = USD$147.0M. Of this total, $21M was raised in the USA alone. 20 Obscure or Unusual Facial Hair Facts Beard popularity historically appears to come in cycles lasting anywhere from a decade to a century; however, shaving has been law in some places in the past. Here are some unusual facts about facial hair. The word ‘barber’ comes from the Latin word barba, which means beard. High-placed ancient Egyptian men weaved gold thread into their golddyed beards. Kings, queens and royal cows wore metallic “beards” for special occasions, including eclipses. Egyptians also shaved their eyebrows when mourning their cats that had run out of their nine lives. Aztecs shaved with volcanic glass. Russians paid a beard tax due to a 1705 law during Peter the Great’s rule. The ruler apparently wanted to “modernize” Russian society. Those paid the tax (cost varied by societal status) were given a token that in had a Cyrillic inscription saying “the beard is a superfluous burden.” Brigham Young University has a “clean-shaven” dress code for men, but Brigham Young himself has displayed a beard. Frida Kahlo’s self-portrait includes her facial hair. ZZ Top’s beardless member is named Frank Beard, who sports a mustache. Mohammed Morsi, Egypt’s first

Actor Chris Pine bearded president, was elected in summer 2012. Abraham Lincoln reputedly grew beard on the written advice of an 11-year old girl who thought his face was thin. Not sure if this was before or after he took up vampire hunting [http://www.imdb.com/title/ tt1611224/?ref_=nv_sr_1], but he was the first bearded U.S. president. When Lincoln won the presidency in 1860, politician Valentine Tapley stopped shaving based on a promise made. Tapley’s beard upon his death in 1910 was 12.5 feet long. Ulysses S. Grant was the first U.S. president with a full-beard. Alexander the Great required his soldiers (345 BC) to shave before battles, to prevent enemies from fighting dirty by pulling on beards. Benjamin Harrison was the last U.S. president with a beard. Pogonophobia is the fear of beards. Professional airline pilots must be clean-shaven, according to a Wikipedia entry on beards. Some other professions have the same requirement, with exceptions sometimes made for men whose religion requires that facial hair not be shaven. Photoshopping facial hair onto female celebrities has become “a thing”. If you’re daring, check out Freaking News’ Bearded Women gallery [http://www.freakingnews.com/ Bearded-Women-Pictures--3691. asp]. Actor Alec Baldwin appears in a Capital One credit card commercial competing with two “Vikings” in a beard-growing contest. After each combatant grimaces for a few seconds, each sprouts a full beard. Of course that’s make believe, but there are beard growing contests, including the World Beard Championships, which took place in Germany in 2013. Competitors sport some of the most fascinating artistically groomed facial hair. The Beard Team USA won 9 trophies in the competition. There is a TV reality show on IFC network called Whisker Wars, about competitive beard growing. Some crazy people prefer to shave with cold water — a practice that Benjamin Franklin wrote and said was less effort. Others go a step further and shave with ice water. Several religions or branches thereof have specific “no shaving” and sometimes no hair-cutting rules for men, including the Amish, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Latter-day Saints, Sikhism, and the Rastafaria.

Pacific Symphony fans raise $200,000 for artistic and educational programs

The San Clemente News

Susie Perry, Sally Segerstrom Andrews, Toby Andrews, and Sandy Photos by: Andre Niesing Segerstrom Daniels. Pacific Symphony’s “2017-18 Classical Opening Night Celebration and Concert” was a night of elegance and opulence from the moment 320 guests arrived at the Westin South Coast Plaza hotel. Attendees decked out in black-tie and stunning ball gowns eagerly began celebrating the Symphony’s outstanding musicians and the start of the highly anticipated 2017-18 Hal and Jeanette Segerstrom Family Foundation Classical Series. Hosted by the Symphony’s board of directors and co-chaired by longtime supporters, husband-and-wife team Susan and Sam Anderson, the successful opening event raised nearly $200,000 for the Symphony’s award-winning artistic and education programs. A posh cocktail reception and mouth-watering pre-concert dinner set the stage for the exceptional opening performance by the orchestra, led by Music Director Carl St.Clair and spotlighting Beethoven’s mighty “Fifth Symphony,” Strauss’s lushly romantic “Don Juan,” and selections from Wagner’s thrilling “Die Walküre”. The event launched into high gear with a chic reception. Guests arrived via the red carpet to find an abundance of fragrant white roses and white Phalaenopsis orchids filling the air with an intoxicating scent that many called “stunning.” The ambience sparkled like keys on a piano, as the Pacific Symphony’s Music Director, Carl St. Clair and his wife Susan décor announced itself dramatically in black, white and platinum, with St. Clair. glimmering mirrored accents. Champagne corks popped, as guests mingled to music by an enchanting wind trio, while nibbling on tasty appetizers that included blue-cheese-topped crostini glazed with caramelized shallot aioli; mini-quesadillas stuffed with brie, dried pear and walnuts; and saffron-poached shrimp dipped in cilantro-lime sauce. Opera singers in Wagnerian costumes posed with guests hoping to capture the moment. President John Forsyte welcomed everyone before Symphony cellist László Mezö performed a mesmerizing “Hungarian Rhapsody” by David Popper, dedicated to Symphony supporters Haydee and Carlos Mollura. Maestro St.Clair offered inspiring words before introducing “Forte Duo,” a performance by Symphony violinist Bridget Dolkas, accompanied by a guitarist. They began with a somewhat unremarkable arrangement of Beethoven’s Fifth, before announcing that “something wasn’t right” and disappearing backstage…leaving guests to wonder. The duo returned, armed with amplified electric instruments and dressed to rock and roll, launching into a heavy metal-inspired rendition of the opening of Beethoven’s Fifth that led to a short medley with humorous improvised lyrics—much to the audience’s delight! The medley closed with a heavy version of Wagner’s “Ride of the Valkyries” and the finale of the first movement of Beethoven’s Fifth. Dinner was topped off by fresh berries in a chocolate cup, chocolate ganache Susan and Sam Anderson. Ling and Charlie Zhang. cake and mixed-berry sorbet, as Symphony Board Chair Joann Leatherby introduced the event’s co-chairs, who thanked everyone for coming. Herald trumpets sent off a procession of guests, winding their way to the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall for a performance led by Maestro St.Clair and featuring three exhilarating pieces: Beethoven’s Fifth, with the most famous four notes in history; selections from Wagner’s “Die Walküre,” from the mythological wonder, the “Ring” cycle, with international opera superstar, Greer Grimsley; and some of the most sumptuous music ever heard—Strauss’s “Don Juan.” During intermission, guests were treated to an exclusive reception offering more enticing goodies on the Box Circle Club area. The fun continued post-concert, as guests returned to The Westin to find the space completely transformed into a swanky, contemporary lounge with mirrored cocktail tables and seating vignettes adorned by black and white accents. As a jazz quartet played, beverages were served, and guests marveled at a sea of heavenly bite-size desserts, including white and dark chocolate-dipped strawberries, dark chocolate brownies, chocolate-dipped coconut macaroons, assorted mini cheesecakes, pistachio and vanilla crème brûlée, chocolate and strawberry mousse topped with music notes, and wild berry shots!

Tango Buenos Aires Returns to Segerstrom Center for the Arts in The Spirit of Argentina

Direct from Argentina, Tango Buenos Aires returns to Segerstrom Center for the Arts in a passionate and soulful program of music and dance in the new show, The Spirit of Argentina. The company of dancers, vocalists and musicians pay homage to one of tango’s leading superstars French-Argentine singer, songwriter and composer Carlos Gardel. There will be four performances November 18 – 19, 2017 in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. This presentation of Tango Buenos Aires is a part of Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA, a far-reaching and ambitious exploration of Latin American and Latino art in dialogue with Los Angeles, taking place from September 2017 through January 2018 at more than 70 cultural institutions across Southern California. Pacific Standard Time is an initiative of the Getty. Single tickets start at $39 and are now available online at SCFTA.org, at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa or by calling (714) 556-2787. For inquiries about group ticket savings for 10 or more, call the Group Services office at (714) 755-0236. An undisputed hero of Latin American music and dance, Gardel composed and recorded hundreds of classic tangos, many written with his lyricist and longtime collaborator, Alfredo Le Pera. Many of those seductive compositions are featured in this spectacular performance, which is also set to music by the legendary Astor Piazzolla and other heroes of tango. Tango Buenos Aires has become one of Argentina’s great cultural exports, known throughout the Americas, Europe and the Far East as the most authentic and uncompromising representative of the Tango. Tango Buenos Aires was created for the “Jazmines” festival at the famous Buenos Aires

cabaret “Michelangelo” by renowned composer and tango director Osvaldo Requena. The company met with tremendous success and was immediately added to the season of the General San Martin Municipal Theatre. Due to the continued success of its previous tours over the last three decades, Tango Buenos Aires is currently on another coast to coast tour of the United States and Canada, with its new program, “The Spirit of Argentina.” Carlos Gardel was a FrenchArgentine singer, songwriter, composer and actor, and the most prominent figure in the history of tango. Gardel’s baritone voice and the dramatic phrasing of his lyrics made miniature masterpieces of his hundreds of three-minute tango recordings. Together with lyricist and long-time collaborator Alfredo Le Pera, Gardel wrote several classic tangos. Gardel died in an airplane crash at the height of his career, becoming an archetypal tragic hero mourned throughout Latin America. For many, Gardel embodies the soul of the tango style. He is commonly referred to as “Carlitos”, “El Zorzal” (The [Song] Thrush), “The King of Tango”, “El Mago” (The Wizard), “El Morocho del Abasto” (The Brunette boy from Abasto), and ironically “El Mudo” (The Mute). The Center’s International Dance Series is made possible by the Audrey Steele Burnand Endowed Fund for International Dance and The Segerstrom Foundation Endowment for Great Performances. Segerstrom Center for the Arts thanks its corporate partners including Kia Motors America, Official Automotive Partner; United Airlines, Official Airline; and Omaha Steaks International, Official

Sweet Meets Spicy Fresh ideas for a fun fiesta menu

There’s no better way to spice up a party than by using unexpected ingredients in fun, flavorful dishes and drinks. For your next fiesta, celebrate a star of the party with sweet and juicy watermelon. Not only does versatile watermelon lend a unique taste to your menu, it’s a healthy ingredient that provides natural hydration with 92 percent water content, along with the antioxidant lycopene and the amino acid citrulline. These recipes show how, with a little creative carving, you can use the whole melon, including flesh, juice and rind, for big value and zero waste. Find more fiesta-ready recipes at watermelon.org. Cactus Carving Medium-large oval or oblong watermelon (seeded or seedless) Cutting board Paring knife Dry erase marker Kitchen knife Scoop Cactus cookie cutter Small flower cookie cutters Toothpicks Fire and Ice Salsa (recipe below) Wash watermelon under cool, running water and pat dry. On cutting board, place watermelon on its side and cut off 1/4 inch-1/2 inch from stem end; this will provide a sturdy base. Reserve end piece to make into small cactus. Stand watermelon upright on base. Use dry erase marker to draw simple outline of cactus shape. One-third up from bottom of watermelon, draw straight line around back, being careful not to go through cactus outline; this will create a serving bowl for watermelon salsa. Use kitchen knife to cut around outline, leaving just bowl with cactus attached. Scoop out base to form bowl. From pieces of watermelon that were cut away, use cookie cutters to make cactus pieces and flower pieces to decorate with, and chop remaining watermelon to make watermelon salsa and watermelon margaritas, or juice. Attach toothpicks randomly around cactus to make thorns and decorate with watermelon flowers. Decorate

bottom rind scrap with toothpicks to resemble short, round cactus. Fill bowl with Fire and Ice Salsa and serve with tortilla chips. Fire and Ice Salsa Makes: 3 cups 3 cups seeded and finely chopped watermelon 1/2 cup finely diced green peppers 2 tablespoons lime juice 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro 1 tablespoon finely sliced green onion 1-2 tablespoons finely diced jalapeno peppers Combine ingredients; mix well and cover.

Nachos with Watermelon Avocado Salsa Makes: 8 servings 1 avocado, peeled, seeded and chopped 2 teaspoons lime juice 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 1 minced garlic clove 1 can (4 ounces) diced green chilies, drained 2 tablespoons diced red onion 1 1/2 cups diced watermelon 16 ounces fat-free refried beans 11 ounces corn tortilla chips 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated 1/3 cup fat-free sour cream Heat oven to 350 F. To make salsa: In medium bowl, combine avocado, lime juice, cilantro, garlic, chilies and red onion; toss to thoroughly mix. Add watermelon and toss gently. Set aside. Over medium heat, heat beans until hot. Mash if preferred. Place chips on flat, oven-proof plate or cookie sheet and top with beans and cheese. Repeat layers as desired. Heat in oven 10 minutes, or until cheese has melted and chips are hot. Top with salsa mixture and sour cream. Tip: Reserve some salsa to place in bowl for dipping. Blended Watermelon Margarita Makes: 2 margaritas 2 cups seedless watermelon, cubed and frozen 1/2 cup water 3 ounces silver tequila 1 1/2 ounces lime juice 1 ounce elderflower liqueur pinch of salt lime slices, for garnish In blender, combine watermelon, water, tequila, lime juice, elderflower liqueur and salt. Blend until smooth. Pour into two chilled margarita glasses and garnish with lime slices.

1/2 cup water lime wedges coarse salt ice 4 ounces silver tequila 4 ounces watermelon juice 2 ounces lime juice 1 ounce watermelon simple syrup To make watermelon simple syrup: In small saucepan over medium heat, combine watermelon and sugar. Use potato masher to mash watermelon and sugar together, pushing out liquid and dissolving sugar. Simmer 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour mixture through fine mesh sieve set over bowl or jar, pressing watermelon

to extract all liquid. Set aside to cool completely. To make watermelon juice: In blender, combine watermelon and water. Blend until smooth then pour through fine mesh sieve set over bowl or jar. To assemble margaritas: use lime wedge to line rims of two glasses with juice. Dip glasses in coarse salt and carefully fill glasses with ice.

TO REACH THE HIGH INCOME HOMEOWNERS OF San CLemente, WHO WOULD LIKE TO BUY FROM YOU.

Sandra White Display Advertising

San Clemente News, publishers of Coto de Caza News l Ladera Ranch News l Mission Viejo News l Newport News l San Clemente News

QUARTER PAGE COLOR This month I have terrific low prices on quarter page full color ad packages. Plus you can choose to either pre pay or pay as you go. But remember these rates apply only if you order this month. Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the best advertising program is one which brings you clients and customers. Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would generate immediate income for your business. Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in San Clemente, Talega, Dana Point? While some glossy monthly magazines are stylish, their costly rates may not be realistic compared to choosing a highly effective newspaper like these reasonably priced local newspapers which are received by your most likely preferred customers of high income homeowners. This advertising costs you far less money. These five local newspapers are attractive, effective and affordable. Let’s talk today!
