Tips to make outdoor play a priority this summer The school year has ended and kids are more excited than ever to get outside and play. However, as the days grow longer and summer boredom sets in, it’s easy to become uninspired during playtime and it’s tempting for families to turn to DVDs and video games as entertainment. Keeping your kids active and playing during the summer months is important, since healthy lifestyle habits, formed through play and other physical activity, can lower the risk of obesity and its associated health issues, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Here are a few creative ways to inspire families to put down the devices and get outdoors this summer: *Visit a national park Many of the nation’s national parks are family friendly with the perfect combination of beautiful landscapes, fresh air, wildlife and fun recreational activities to captivate both parents and kids. These parks often feature walking or hiking trails to keep your family up and on their feet while they
take in the natural scenery. A quick search online can provide many park options within an easy drive. *Host a donate-to-play field day Gather your neighbors or kids’ play group and organize a summer field day. Set up stations with classic games like a potato sack relay race, water balloon toss and threelegged race. Parents can man the stations or compete alongside their kids. Instead of an entrance fee, ask participants to contribute a monetary donation to a non-profit that promotes play. For example, Good Sports is an organization that helps to lay the foundation for healthy, active lifestyles by providing athletic equipment, footwear and apparel to disadvantaged young people nationwide. There’s nothing better than getting active and giving back while doing so. *Make your own water park Keep your family cool and refreshed while staying active by creating a doit-yourself water park in your own yard. Simply setting up a sprinkler and putting on a swimsuit turns every game into a water game - water
freeze tag, water volleyball or even water jump rope. *Compete in a play challenge Bring a little friendly competition into your family by starting a play challenge this summer. Let’s Play, a community partnership led by Dr Pepper Snapple to help get kids and families get active and make play a daily priority, offers a Let’s Play pledge at LetsPlay.com. Take the pledge to
play a certain number of minutes each week and then compete to see who plays the most to help the family reach its goal. Create a chart to track each family member’s progress, and the person who wins gets to choose a fun activity for the whole family to participate in. Let’s Play also offers a catalogue of play ideas organized by age, group size and season to keep your family inspired.

6 tips for a safe and enjoyable summer Summer is all about spending time outdoors - either at home or away. Whether you’re hitting the road or taking a trip to the local park, it’s time for fun in the sun. And when you’re preparing for fun outside, remember that there are safety concerns to consider as well. With that in mind, use these six tips to help make the season a safe and enjoyable one for everyone in your household: * Make your backyard a safe place. Remember to put garden tools and lawn mowers away in a locked place after use. Un-stored tools could cause a fall or be used by young children as toys. Secure your shed or garage door with a high-security, weatherresistant padlock. Not only does this deter kids from using tools as toys, it also guards lawn equipment from theft. * Sleep safely with the windows open. Sleeping with open windows provides a cool breeze for pleasant rest and helps many people sleep better. What’s more is that it lessens the chance of succumbing to carbon monoxide poisoning, a dangerous nighttime killer. Unfortunately, it also provides intruders with easy access to your home. Before enjoying this summertime routine, take proactive
measures to ensure you do so safely. If you have a home security system (only 14 percent of North Americans do, according to the recent Safety and Security Survey), make sure it provides window security coverage. Otherwise, use a window-blocking device that prevents windows from opening more than 6 inches, and ensure windows cannot be accessed from outside. While you’re sleeping, ensure all doors are locked and safeguard patio doors from intruders with Master Lock’s Door Security Bar. * Designate a family meeting spot. More than half of North Americans have not designated a meeting spot in case of a house fire. Choose one with your family now so you’re prepared in case of a fire. It’s also good practice to designate a meeting spot whenever you’re away from home. Whether you are at a carnival, park or away on vacation, always come up with a plan of where to meet. This will give you peace of mind in case someone in your family is separated from the group. * Check your smoke detectors. Properly installed and maintained smoke detectors save lives and protect against injury and loss due to fire. Yet, survey results showed that only 7 percent of North Americans
test smoke detectors monthly - the recommended frequency to ensure they’re always working correctly. Replace batteries yearly or as soon as you hear a low-battery warning sound - usually a chirping noise. Smoke alarms themselves should be replaced every 10 years. * Create backups. With busy summer schedules, it’s easy to forget your keys before leaving the house. To avoid being locked out of your house, make extra copies of your keys and keep them in a secure spot. A lock box allows you to store your extra key and make it accessible only to those who know the combination.
* Prepare for the unexpected. Technology today makes it easier than ever to ensure you’re never without important information, such as your child’s insurance details or passwords to your online accounts. Store digital copies of your family’s important medical and identification information in a secure app such as the Master Lock Vault for access whenever you need them. By taking the proper safety precautions, you’ll enjoy a safe and worry-free summer. To learn more about the products available from Master Lock, visit www.masterlock. com.

SAWDUST ARTISTS’ BENEVOLENCE FUND HOSTS SILENT AUCTION SUNDAY, AUGUST 10
On Sunday, August 10 the Sawdust Art Festival will host its annual Artists’ Benevolence Fund Art Auction. This year, the auction will be a silent auction only, and take place from 10am-2pm in the Healy House. The art auction, “helping working artists during extreme financial hardship,” is a chance for Sawdust exhibitors to donate their artwork and for patrons to support this great cause, which will help replenish the moneys that have been granted to those Laguna Beach artists in need, such as during the winter Laguna canyon floods of 2010 or an artist’s ladder accident during booth building two summers ago. The Artists’ Benevolence Fund is a non-profit source of financial assistance dedicated to helping working artists, living in Laguna Beach, during catastrophic events and extreme financial difficulties due to natural disaster, personal illness or any debilitating circumstance that prevents the artist from doing their craft. The Artists’ Benevolence Fund was started in 1987 to help a critically ill Sawdust artist suffering from a catastrophic event and unable to work. His fellow exhibitors joined forces, donated their artwork and sold it to obtain financial support for their colleague, a tradition that has continued ever since. The fund was reorganized in 1993 as a nonprofit shelter under the umbrella of the Sawdust Art Festival and now includes consideration for all local Laguna Beach artists, not just Sawdust artists. All are invited to the silent auction participation is complimentary with admission into the festival, and anyone may donate to the fund by

3 expert tips for starting a successful vegetable garden Spring into fresh produce faster with early season gardening tricks. Warm weather begs green thumbs across the country to break out their gardening gloves and till the soil for the season’s plantings. Whether this is your first year tending a home garden or it’s something you’ve been doing for decades, gardening offers many rewards, including time spent outdoors, the ability to feel closer to Mother Nature, and of course, the fresh fare plucked just steps from your kitchen. Anyone can have a successful home garden no matter where they live by following a few steps from professional gardeners. Consider these three important tips for starting your garden right so you can enjoy fresh produce faster, thanks to the experts at Outdoor Essentials makers of garden beds, compost bins and other gardening necessities. Step 1: Research appropriate early plantings Springtime is ideal garden time thanks to milder weather, and a good place to start is by researching proper plants for your region’s early season. If you have questions, consult your local nursery or call your local extension office for specialized advice.
In general, good early plantings include brassicas, a family of plants that includes kale, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and cabbages. Additional cool-season crops to consider include radishes, beets, peas, potatoes and carrots. These plants will thrive early in the season and produce yields quickly. In addition to quick-producing plants, the early season is the best time to plant other varieties that take a long time to mature. Onions, for example, require a lengthy growing season and should be planted early so that in late summer, gardeners can enjoy the maximum yield possible. Want produce quicker? Consider purchasing starter plants, also called plant starts, rather than relying on packets of seeds. These are the small plants that have already germinated and have a basic root system. These are easy to transfer to your own garden and, with proper tending, will grow quickly and produce fruit faster. Step 2: Prepare garden spaces for accelerated growth After months of not being used, your garden’s soil is likely compact and will require some tilling to loosen the dirt and encourage plant growth. You can do this with a garden rake; for large gardens, some people
prefer to rent a power tiller. People who live in smaller homes, a townhouse or condo might prefer to use raised garden beds. Stylish and functional, raised garden planters from Outdoor Essentials eliminate the need to bend over to tend garden, a benefit that has made them vastly popular. Raised garden beds can be used virtually anywhere outdoors, including on a deck or patio, and they can be moved, too, if necessary. Whether you create a garden plot in your yard or add a few raisedgarden planters to your patio, make sure the dirt is nutrient-rich and ready for your plants. Typically it’s wise to mix black dirt in with your soil to ensure that plants grow strong. If you’ve had trouble growing in the past, consider getting your soil tested to verify pH levels. Step 3: Tend daily and enjoy the fruits of your labor For best results, tend your garden on a daily basis. Check for soil moisture and water as necessary. Make sure to pluck weeds and watch for pest infestations. If done daily, it should only take a few minutes to verify the health of your garden, plus it’s fun to watch plants grow and flower. As fruit and vegetables mature,
it’s time to enjoy the season’s first harvest. The healthy fresh fare tastes even better knowing you grew it yourself, plus it cuts down on grocery bills. If you find you have too much of one type of produce at once, share with neighbors, coworkers and friends - everyone loves fresh garden delights. Keep in mind that as plants grow, you need to make sure they don’t overcrowd each other. This can limit growth and yield production. If your garden starts to look overgrown, you may need to pluck out a few plants to open up space and encourage proper growth and healthy root systems. Spring to it! The mild, moist weather and longer days of the early gardening season make the conditions ideal for plant growth. With a few simple steps and a watchful eye, you’ll be enjoying fresh produce at almost every meal. For more garden inspiration, visit www. outdooressentialproducts.com.
A Well-Earned Victory for Rodrigo Lambre and Charielle in the Markel Insurance Grand Prix
Wrapping up three competitive weeks in Del Mar, today’s highlight $30,000 Markel Insurance Grand Prix welcomed sixty-seven horse and rider combinations in a touch of wet weather. Of the eleven who returned for the jump-off, Rodrigo Lambre and Charielle (Mario Onate, owner) went double clean and narrowly beat the top time to earn the top prize. FEI course designer Catsy Cruz of Mexico had a big job building for such a large field of riders. “I think this group in this 1.40m grand prix is a very good group of quality horses and riders. So I had to build a class that had some questions, a little technical to make it a good exam, a good competition. It’s a very big class, so I tried to build something that will make it interesting and competitive,” she explained. It was a battle of the sexes with an international flair today, with five females and five males, one with two mounts, competing against the clock in the jump-off. Representing Puerto Rico, Mark Watring and Pino H were first to return. With a heartbreak last rail, they finished with four in a speedy 37.36. On the female side, American Misti Cassar rode the more conservative clean option on Gavin Page 6
Brodin’s AllStar 5. Ultimately one of only three double clears, Cassar finished third. Coming to California from Canada, Andrea Strain and Djakarta had 8a down for four faults in 38.78. Back to the men, last week’s winners, Manuel Alvarez of Mexico with Manolito Fortuna, were once again very fast in 35.58, but took down 8a for four faults and fourth place. Plagued by the combination, Alvarez had 8b down on his second mount Spirit Magic, picking up the pink ribbon. Local favorite, Brazilian Josephina Nor Lantzman and Chello Z were on track, double clear and fast in 37.76. However, directly after Lantzman came Lambre on Charielle who stopped the clock .59 seconds faster to take the lead. The remaining four competitors could not match this feat and the well-deserved win went to Lambre. Lambre liked the weather. “I think the rain helps with the footing; if you put in bigger studs, you are fine. It’s good footing.” When asked how he managed to shave off the half second for the win, he replied, “I think I came along nicely to the vertical-vertical combination
The San Clemente News
and was able to leave out a stride there.” He then spoke highly of the talented young horse he rode. “I’ve been riding her for only 6 months - my sponsor Mario Onate owns her. This is the second grand prix win for her; she won a 1.50m in Mexico. She’s such a special mare. She’s just eight, and I have big plans for her.” The summer show season moves on to San Juan Capistrano for the Blenheim Summer Classic, August
13-17, marking the beginning of the Big Eq fall season with the CPHA Medal Finals, plus another Markel Insurance Grand Prix. Competition continues in Del Mar with a two-week series chock-full of highlight classes. The Showpark Summer Classic, August 20-24, and Showpark All Seasons Tournament, August 27-31, host CPHA Foundation Medal Finals, Young Jumper Championships, FEI classes and more.

Santa Ana Zoo will have “Monkey Magic” at Zoofari Fundraiser It’s that time again! The summer extravaganza you’ve been waiting for! On August 23rd, the Friends of Santa Ana Zoo (FOSAZ), a non-profit organization, will be holding their 22nd annual Zoofari fundraising event at the Zoo! This annual black-tie gala will be under the stars and is themed “Monkey Magic”, so you know some “monkeying” around will be had by all! The Santa Ana Zoo is located in Prentice Park located at 1801 Chestnut Avenue in Santa Ana. Space is limited and tickets will not be sold at the door. Hosted by Ed Arnold, with an expected attendance of more than 400 guests, the glamorous fundraising event includes valet parking service underwritten by Tudor House Productions, cocktails, a hosted bar, “50 Monkeys Jumping on the Bed” signature drink and a first-class dining experience catered by Parties by Panache. Guests will be dressed in their finest jungle attire; men are usually fitted with black tie jacket, tie and shirt from the waste up with khaki shorts and comfy hiking boots while the ladies dress to impress with wild prints and exotic makeup. Party-goers will enjoy an evening of magic, amazing décor by R.W.B. Party Props, dancing to the sounds of Groove Factory and an opportunity to bid on wonderful trips, beautiful baskets, and one-of-a-kind gifts during the event’s live and silent auctions hosted by renowned auctioneer Glen Fladeboe. “Zoofari is a first-class fundraising event that demonstrates the love and investment the local community, surrounding businesses and FOSAZ have for the Zoo,” says David Exline, President of the FOSAZ Board. “This year’s Zoofari Monkey Magic promises to be another endearing and festive evening our guests will cherish and a night of giving that will have a lasting and positive impact on the Santa Ana Zoo for years to come.” Honorees this year are Knowlwood owners: Thanh Nguyen, PhD, Ginger Nguyen & Tana Everhart and Ginna Nguyen along with the Zoo’s vet and renowned animal specialist Scott Weldy, DVM. “For more than 20 years, Zoofari has played an integral role in raising the funds needed for all the special projects and improvements going on here at Orange County’s favorite zoo including breaking ground on new animal habitats, tackling important conservation initiatives, introducing new rides and upgrading service facilities for our guests to use and enjoy,” says Cathi Decker, event host and Executive Director of FOSAZ. The Santa Ana Zoo is home to more than 150 animals, including 50 of the most interesting and engaging monkeys and several endangered species, like the Golden Lion Tamarins. The gates open daily from 10:00 am - 4:00 pm. Admission is $10.00 for adults, $7.00 for seniors and children 3-12 years. Children under 3 are free.

Essential swim safety tips Alicia Kockler, a swim safety expert and director of swim programming at Life Time - The Healthy Way of Life Company, provides the following tips to ensure fun, safe swimming experiences this summer and beyond. Invest in swim lessons. The safety of your kids - and yourself - is vital. Investing in swim lessons is the best way to ensure confidence and skill in the water. Starting kids young often leads to more success in the water but most programs, including Life Time Swim, offer lessons through adulthood for all swimming abilities. Maintain visual contact. A lifeguard is no substitute for maintaining visual contact and close proximity to your kids at all times. Never turn your back on a child when he or she is in the water, not even for a moment. Don’t mistake water wings, flotation devices, life jackets or lifeguards for absolute safety. Follow a 25:10 rule. Life Time operates by a 25:10 rule and suggests parents use it as a safety measure in all bodies of water. The 25:10 rule proposes that if a child cannot swim 25 meters continuously without assistance, an adult must be within 10 feet at all times. Limit the non-swimmer to swimmer ratio to less than 3:1. Limiting the amount of non-swimmers to swimmers will directly impact your ability to better supervise each non-swimmer. Get CPR certified. Take a class and learn how to perform CPR in case an emergency does occur. Teach safety basics. Keep children safe by teaching water safety basics such as: always wear a Coast Guard-approved life jacket, no running
by the pool, no going into the water without an adult nearby and reach for a pole or line that has been thrown out if you’re struggling in the water. Strollers and car seats should be kept at least four feet from any body of water. Take breaks at least every two hours. There’s a reason public pools have safety breaks. Rest, rehydrate and reapply sunscreen before returning to the water for more fun.
Designate a meeting spot. Use a brightly colored towel to designate a meeting spot and establish regular times to check-in. Kockler also suggests taking showers with soap before and after entering any body of water, always washing hands after restroom use and making sure children under the age of 3 always wear a snug fitting plastic pant over their swim diaper to prevent contamination.
The hottest hair trends for summer that will keep you cool With the summer season in full swing, infuse goodness into your day by spending less time fussing with your hair and more time outdoors having fun in the sun. For flawless summer styles that will have you out the door in minutes, Suave Professionals Celebrity Stylists Jenny Cho and Marcus Francis are sharing their quick and easy styling secrets to looking good and feeling good all summer long. Boho braid for beach bumming - A boho-chic braid is the perfect look for a day at the beach while soaking up some sun. “Mist dry hair with Suave Professionals Natural Infusion Moisturizing Light Oil Spray with Macadamia Oil to add weightless hydration,” says Cho. “Sweep hair to one side, divide into three sections and loosely braid, pulling out a few front pieces for an effortless summer style.” Top knot bun for dancing fun -Get your groove on without hair getting in the way. Francis recommends rocking a trendy top knot when dancing the night away. “Apply Suave Professionals Natural Infusion Strengthening Light Leave-In Cream with Awapuhi Ginger from mid-shaft to ends of damp hair before blow drying for hair that’s easier to style,” says Francis. “When hair is completely dry, brush upward, smooth any bumps, Page 14
and tie into a tight ponytail on top of your head. Backcomb the ponytail for added volume and finish by wrapping strands around the elastic in a circular motion, securing with pins.” Au naturale strands for any summer soiree - Flaunt natural locks

with a boost of volume for a day-tonight look that will take you from the office to an evening barbecue with family and friends. “Because of the summer humidity, now is the time to embrace your natural texture. Coat damp hair with Suave Professionals

New Discovery Opens the Door to Possible Cure for Heart Disease Larry Weisenthal, M.D., Ph.D., announced new findings that unravel mysteries about the root cause of atherosclerosis - the narrowing of blood vessels that leads to heart attack and stroke. It is a big step toward developing drugs, possibly in the very near future, that prevent the most common forms of heart disease. Larry Weisenthal, M.D., Ph.D., is a physician and researcher. He has discovered a previously unknown biological mechanism that accounts for vascular calcification - hardening of the arteries. Dr. Weisenthal has named the new mechanism MCED (pronounced EM-sed). It stands for Massively Calcified Endosome Death. By targeting MCED with new drugs, he feels it should be possible to stop vascular calcification from occurring, even among individuals with high cholesterol. “Cholesterol levels probably won’t matter,” says Dr. Weisenthal, “at the end of the day the most important cause of arterial blockage may be the presence or absence of circulating MCED factors.” According to the report, Dr. Weisenthal has discovered that, under some circumstances, arteryforming cells, called endothelial cells, die in a special way that involves release of highly calcified micro-
particles. These escape from dying endothelial cells and trigger the body’s normal immune response. This causes inflammation within the blood vessel and narrows the opening through which blood flows. Scientists understand that arteries do not literally become clogged with fat, like sludge in an old sewer pipe. Instead, the wall of the artery undergoes an apparent thickening as part of an inflammatory process. But what causes the inflammation to occur? That is exactly the mystery Dr. Weisenthal has unraveled. He contends that MCED is the cause of arterial inflammation. Until now, no theory fully explained the perplexing mysteries of heart disease. Why do some people who eat all the “wrong” foods live long, healthy lives while other people whose diets appear ideal have heart problems? Why do some people with sky-high cholesterol counts have squeaky-clean arteries while other people, with “good” cholesterol levels, suffer narrowing of the arteries, heart attack, and stroke? Clearly, cholesterol seems to be a factor but, just as clearly, it is not the most important factor. According to Dr. Weisenthal, MCED explains everything. Dr. Weisenthal’s laboratory experiments
have shown that certain chemicals such as cholesterol can indeed cause MCED to occur - but not in everyone. Dr. Weisenthal has shown that blood drawn from different persons varies widely in the ability to prevent MCED from occurring. He says this probably is due to substances - called factors - that are contained in the blood. Dr. Weisenthal believes it will be possible to isolate MCED-inhibiting factors in the blood and then develop drugs that mimic them. Conceivably, persons at risk for atherosclerosis could be identified through a simple blood test. Such persons would then receive a daily pill to inhibit MCED and prevent the narrowing of arteries. “That’s the importance of this work,” says Dr. Weisenthal, “It answers the most important questions relating to the genesis of atherosclerosis and identifies the target for specific drugs to prevent and treat it.” Importantly, only endothelial cells are subject to this particular form of cell death. No other cell Dr. Weisenthal has tested can be made to die in exactly this way. This is additional, strong support for his theory. The report is available online at h t t p : / / b i o r x i v. o r g / c o n t e n t / early/2014/07/15/007112 . About Dr. Larry Weisenthal: Dr. Larry Weisenthal, M.D., Ph.D.
is board-certified in medical oncology and internal medicine. He also holds a Ph.D. degree in Pharmacology Research. Dr. Weisenthal owns a laboratory-based medical practice in which he personalizes chemotherapy treatments for individual cancer patients using a test he developed that shows how each patient’s living cancer cells respond when exposed in the laboratory to a broad range of chemotherapy drugs. His laboratory website is http://weisenthalcancer. com/. Dr. Weisenthal is also a researcher, author, lecturer, and Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of California Irvine.
SPECIAL EVENTS THIS WEEK AT FESTIVAL OF ARTS
There is plenty to see and do this week as the Festival of Arts California’s premier fine art show continues in Laguna Beach. On Saturday, Aug. 9, the Jazz on the Green concert series continues from 1-3 p.m. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the music of Jeff Lorber Fusion, who first honed their craft in the Portland, Oregon, club scene and rapidly expanded their reach to a national and international audience via a combination of complex harmonies, unconventional time signatures and compelling rhythms. Cost is free with Festival admission, though there are a limited number of reserved seats available for $25. On Sunday, Aug. 10, the “Art of Cooking” series continues from 1-2 p.m. This week’s featured chef is columnist, author and on-air host Cathy Thomas. According to Thomas, part of the fun of cooking and entertaining is creating delectable dishes without spending hours in the kitchen. That’s been the focal point of her cooking classes and award-winning newspaper features for over two decades. Her quicktoprepare recipes showcase flavorful ingredients, relying on fresh fruits and vegetables to make each dish colorful and delicious.
Also on Sunday, Aug. 10, the “Sundays in the Park” music series continues from 2-4 p.m. This week’s performer will be the Beatles tribute band, The Beatroots with Jason Feddy and Friends.

They play the songs of The Beatles in their own, inimitable style, staying close to the original, but improvising when the feeling takes them. This makes for a truly energetic and alive experience for both the musicians and the audience. Cost is free with Festival admission.

Update your workout gear to whip your fitness routine into shape Summer is a great time to ramp up your physical fitness routine and get in shape for beach season. You’re probably looking for ways to improve not only your workout, but achieve your fitness goals as well. To maximize the effectiveness of your fitness routine, you’ll need some summer fitness gear to kick off your workout and keep going strong. Be sure you’ve updated your workout gear to include the following: Proper footwear - A pair of sneakers designed for one sporting activity won’t necessarily work for another. If you’re an active person who likes to vary your workout with different activities, you should select the appropriate sneaker style for each. For example, if you run, the American Podiatric Medical Association recommends you find shoes that properly fit your arches. Or if you play basketball frequently, different shoes are recommended for different positions in the game. Players who tend to play a small forward or post position have to frequently adjust their position, and having shoes with better support on the outside of the foot helps to prevent those players from turning or twisting their ankles.
Gym bag - Any time you take your fitness routine out of the house, a gym bag is necessary for carrying all your essentials to make your workout mobile. From yoga clothes and an extra pair of shoes, to a baseball glove and ball, a proper gym bag makes it easier to travel and also provides you with an incentive to workout. Gym bags have the tendency to pick up odors, though, so be sure to air the bag out as quickly as possible by removing all clothing and shoes once you get home, or invest in a bag that has an antimicrobial lining. If the smell is still too strong, use an odor ball or dryer sheets in the bag to help reduce the smell. Activity monitor - Fitness activity trackers are great tools for those who want to monitor their workouts to help track progress. The LG Lifeband Touch sends real-time fitness information such as calories burned, steps taken, speed and other data directly to the wristband’s touch display. It also has a built-in triple accelerometer and altimeter, which measure not just steps, but forward, backward and side-to-side motion along with ascent and decent data, making it a great tool for measuring
different types of fitness activities. To help you monitor and advance your fitness routines, you can wirelessly sync the Lifeband Touch to your phone via Bluetooth with the LG Fitness App or other popular fitness apps. You can also use the Bluetooth capabilities to receive incoming call or text notifications that are displayed on the OLED touch screen to keep you connected during your workout. Sunscreen - Outdoor fitness can expose you to plenty of harmful UV rays, so be sure to keep some sporting sunscreen available in your car, gym bag, at home and at work so it’s always handy. Although there are many sweat-proof sunscreens available, try to apply the lotion at least half an hour prior to your workout so it can soak into your skin for maximum sun protection. If you’re going to be active for several hours, be sure to reapply as directed by the sunscreen maker. Water bottles - Hydration is key before, during and after a workout, so keep a water bottle on hand. If you’re planning your activity in an area where water refills are unavailable, put several full refillable BPA-free water bottles or sports drinks in the freezer the night before
and bring with you to keep hydrated with ice cold drinks throughout the duration of your workout. For bikers and runners planning a longdistance workout, be sure to plan your route through areas where you can refill a water bottle or purchase a sports drink. With your workout gear updated, you’re ready to hit the gym, the road, the trail or the court. Remember to report back to your friends online or even your co-workers to share how successful you are with your fitness program, as support or even friendly competition can also be a great motivator.
Keeping kids stimulated all summer can help prevent the summer learning slide
For most kids, the final school bell signals a break from learning and a focus on summer fun, but for parents it often means an uphill battle to beat the “summer slide” in their child’s learning. Significant knowledge and skills gained during the previous school year can be lost if children don’t participate in enrichment and learning activities during summer break. In fact, children run the risk of losing newly learned Common Core curriculum skills they developed during the year. The good news for parents who are concerned about the summer slide is that several Common Core teachings can be easily adapted from the classroom to fun summer projects conducted at home and in the community. “The summer slide can mean a child may spend the first two months of the new school year playing catchup instead of learning new material,” says Dr. Ashley Norris, assistant dean of the College of Education at University of Phoenix. “Parents need to plan a balanced mix of activities for their children during the summer that not only include sports and extracurricular activities, Page 16
but learning activities that emphasize math and reading skills.” Norris, who prepares prospective and current teachers to address dynamics in schools and the classroom, recommends parents incorporate Common Core themes into the summer curriculum they plan for their children. Here are six fun, educational activities that can help kids avoid the summer slide and also provide parents with opportunities to connect with their children. 1. Turn everyday activities into learning opportunities According to a recent University of Phoenix College of Education survey, 38 percent of teachers believe Common Core curriculum ties learning to real-world scenarios. Errands are an easy way to engage children in reading and math skills. Consider having your child help make the grocery list, go shopping with you and practice adding up the bill and calculating the tax. 2. Seek inspiration from community events and activities Visit the farmers market to learn about vegetables and teach the importance of healthy eating. Attend concerts and then ask your child to research his favorite musical
The San Clemente News
instruments. Head to the local nature center to learn about native plants and then return home and ask the kids to draw what they saw. 3. Embrace technology and create interactive projects and activities Apps and websites such as Pinterest are making Common Core projects available for parents to set up at home. Pinterest has new math and reading challenges that are posted daily. You can also search for Common Core apps developed by schools across the country combining video games with math and science skills. 4. Focus on core competencies Look for activities that emphasize core skills such as math and reading. Creating a cooking project is one of the best ways to integrate these skills as children are required to follow directions of a recipe and learn about cooking elements such as time, temperature and measuring ingredients. 5. Balance academic and social engagement Look for activities or summer camps that not only promote social skill development, but allow for knowledge in specific content areas. Science and technology camps
provide hands-on learning projects such as bridge building, mouse-trap cars or the construction of robots. Many science museums offer home projects on their websites. 6. Plan a trip to the library Common Core requires students to conduct in-depth research from multiple sources and then discuss their findings with peers. Families can do similar activities throughout the summer. Each family member can search for information on a chosen topic then set a time to gather and discuss the findings, which research tools were used and if more information is available. Make it a game by voting for the family member who found the most interesting or unique fact. If you keep them engaged during the summer break, your children can pick up right where they left off when the school bell rings in the fall.

San Clemente News Legal Notices NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE TS No. CA-14-616186-HL Order No.: 14-0006731 YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 10/24/2005. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): WAYNE C GOULD AND JAIME GOULD Recorded: 10/28/2005 as Instrument No. 2005000869585 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of ORANGE County, California; Date of Sale: 8/25/2014 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: At the Doubletree by Hilton Hotel Anaheim – Orange County, 100 The City Drive, Orange, CA 92868 in the Auction.com Room Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $1,123,079.85 The purported property address is: 33602 DIAMOND RIDGE CT, DANA POINT, CA 92629 Assessor’s Parcel No.: 682-221-49 NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you
should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-616186HL . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
