:::: FROM THE PUBLISHER

Vol. 1, No. 4 TM

Publisher Derrick Breaux

Five Years Already?

Derrick Breaux Publisher

t all started as an idea. We didn’t know exactly what we were about to get ourselves into. After months of napkin scratching (often accompanied by a glass of wine or two or three at one of our favorite local restaurants), we decided to pull the trigger and launch our first zip code magazine – 92127 Magazine. The initial issue of 92127 hit driveways back in November of 2009 – that’s right, we didn’t even mail them to houses in the beginning. We started mailing to all of the homes shortly thereafter. At least in my mind, the concept was simple and straightforward. We were going to “publish a magazine that people wanted to read.” As a matter of fact, that is still our company mission statement to this very day. After all, how hard could it actually be? The original concept was going to be “template-based” and easy to design. We would then be able to duplicate the template-based concept into other neighboring zip codes. Piece of cake, right? Well… not so fast. What we quickly discovered is that our “templatebased” concept was not going to be template-based after all. On the contrary, as we began to assemble the ZCode Team, we discovered that our talented crew of professionals had a burning desire to push the limits and make each issue better than the last one. In fact, they would have it no other way. Therefore, complete customization was in, and the templates were out. Complete customization allowed us to spotlight people, families, organizations, and businesses at the professional level that they deserved (and we envisioned). We wanted to create bigger-than-life editorial features that people would be proud of and keep for the rest of their lives – articles that are often found framed on their walls. An artistic editorial piece that would normally only be found in national magazines, but all compiled specifically for our local community and residents. That was the vision, and the incredible ZCode Team composed of editorial personnel, graphic designers, account executives, and our production coordinator came together to make it happen. Issue after issue, our team works hard to pull hundreds of pages of beautiful editorial content, advertisements, and community announcements together. The adrenaline rush of upload night (the night that we send the magazine to the printer) is not as strong as it once was. In the early days, it was not uncommon to watch the sun rise after a long night of final touches. Today, we rarely have to stay past 7 p.m. on upload day. But after five years of publishing ZCode Magazines – and a total of 190 issues across sixteen zip codes – we still get excited to kick our feet up and flip through the pages when the issue arrives. In fact, it’s a gift. It still amazes me how a team of nearly twenty people can efficiently work together to produce magazines that touch the heart and soul of the local communities. Thanks for being a reader and supporting 08/10 Magazine! Regards, Derrick Breaux, Publisher

:::: FACES IN THE CROWD

Second Chance Recipient Melissa Cappuccilli Embraces Her Second Chance at Life and Honors Her Organ Donor by AMY LEHRER | photo by Lauren Nygard Photography

year ago walking fifteen feet caused Melissa Cappuccilli to gasp for air. Because medical management for her genetic congestive heart failure no longer worked, Melissa was placed on the transplant list. Thirty-one days later, a heart arrived. Her family witnessed a miracle, but her donor’s family suffered. Melissa shared, “I pray for my donor and my donor’s family every day and always live my life to its fullest to honor my donor and my donor’s wonderful gift of life.” Soon after her transplant, Melissa’s son needed community service hours. She recommended he volunteer with Donate Life at the Tri-City Medical Center Carlsbad Marathon and Half Marathon. Liking the idea, she volunteered too. She revealed, “There was so much life there, and I felt grateful and blessed to be back in the world.” Melissa began training with the Lucky 13 program in July through Tri-City Medical Center. Her team includes thirteen North County residents who have overcome health challenges and have never participated in a race before. Melissa revealed, “Through this race, I want to honor my donor. I want to show the world that saving a life through organ donation is the best possible way to be a hero.” Training with medically trained personal trainers and coaches helps Melissa learn to work with a denervated heart. A normal heart is connected to the brain via the nervous system, which allows muscles to trigger a message to the brain that the heart needs to pump faster. In Melissa’s case due to surgery, her heart doesn’t respond. Instead, her brain has to activate her hormone system to trigger her heart to beat faster. Consequently, she must only raise her heart rate thirty to forty beats above baseline. Melissa’s husband, children, and grandchildren have supported her every step of the way, but they also are sometimes cautious, overwhelmed, or scared for her because they almost lost her. Melissa hopes her experience inspires people to make healthy changes in their lives, even small daily ones like choosing to drink water instead of soda. Incremental changes could become healthy habits. Realtors say it’s about “location, location, location.” Melissa says life is about “attitude, attitude, attitude.” She hopes people take her advice to heart by improving their lives and by registering to become organ donors. Melissa’s favorite quote post-transplant is "The greatest hero I never knew is the organ donor who saved my life." ¢ Name: Community: Hobbies:

he 11th Annual Carlsbad Music Festival featured three days of adventurous music by the beach with over fifty musical performances. Highlights included a free village walk, ticketed main stage concerts, and free concerts in Magee Park. Performers such as Pulitzer Prize-winning composer David Lang, Carlsbad-based indie-Americana band Trouble in the Wind, and the up-and-coming Carlsbad rockers Paper Days, were a few of the musicians that graced the stages. The festival brought a variety of musicians and bands. From a piano trio to an electro-pop band to the modern surf-guitarmeets-jazz band, the musical selection fueled the audience members’ appetites and achieved the festival’s goal – to promote the music of today’s most exciting and interesting young composers. ¢

From CHSTV to the Emmys

JOHN TIPTON MAKES CARLSBAD PROUD WITH RECENT EMMY WIN

ormer Carlsbad High School Television (CHSTV) Sports Reporter John Tipton has won an Emmy award for a University of Minnesota (U of M) sports special called Pride on Ice, which follows the school’s hockey team. John produced this special during the two years he spent covering sports for the U of M. When asked about Pride on Ice, John explained, “We sat down with a few players and coaches both before and after the games and let them tell the story. We filmed interviews, practices, and games. My goal was to give all hockey fans the inside access.” In the end, John spent nearly forty hours editing and says he spent most of this time at his local coffee shop, “I can’t tell you how many mochas and lattes I bought, but I can tell you the more coffee that entered my body, the more heart I put into the video.” The task of piecing together a thirteen-minute episode from so much exciting content was, in John’s words, the most challenging project that he’s ever faced. Clearly, though, all of the hard work from John and his team has paid off. The single episode, “Frozen Four”, was nominated for a Midwest Emmy sports category called “One-Time Special” – and won. Currently, John works as a broadcast producer and editor of University of Alabama sports games, including football, women’s volleyball, men and women’s basketball, and more. His duties include editing highlights and creating video content that runs in-game. “Winning an Emmy is still a whirlwind,” John laughed. “It hasn’t fully sunk in yet.” ¢

CRITICAL THINKER LMU SENIOR DANE PEARSON THRIVES ON THE POSITIVITY OF HIS SURROUNDINGS by KELLEY GUSICH | headshot by Lauren Nygard Photography

ane Pearson is starting his senior year at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, he lives in Northern Carlsbad, and he feels extremely lucky to spend time in both places. He has utilized leadership skills and a passion for music at Carlsbad High and now at LMU, serving as concertmaster for both orchestras. The experience has been extremely rewarding. “I do not take lightly how much work and practice went into being named concertmaster,” he confided, “and I am grateful for my experiences with ensembles, conductors, and fellow musicians.” As a student, Dane likes classes that are engaging and cerebrally challenging, and experimental courses within his psychology major are his favorite. “The best thing about attending LMU,” he shared, “is the intellectual tradition that they take pride in – the dedication to critical thinking, the education of the whole person, the small class sizes, and the intellectually stimulating Name: School: Grade: Parents: Siblings: Pet: Awards & Recognitions: Favorite Places in Carlsbad:

Dane Pearson Loyola Marymount University Senior Karen and Ray Pearson Danielle Pearson (30); Matt Pearson (27) Sami, Yorkshire Terrier Certificate of Merit Level 10 for violin; played at Carnegie Hall in his sophomore year with the CHS Chamber Orchestra La Costa Coffee Roasting, the movie theater, Sprouts Farmers Market, The Village, the beach

professors.” He is looking forward to focusing on his major in his last year, and finding a job in the profession of Organizational Psychology/Leadership that leads to a fulfilling career. “I hope to marry by the time I am 35 and have a good, solid family,” Dane added. “Having kids is very important to me.”

“MUSIC IS SO IMPORTANT TO HUMAN CULTURE,” DANE SAID, “AND I LOVE TO BRING IT TO THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF CHILDREN, ALONG WITH ALL PEOPLE. A PERSON SHOULD ULTIMATELY PURSUE WHAT HIS/HER HEART DESIRES, AND NEVER GIVE UP ON DREAMS.” His mom is his biggest inspiration, but he has a close family with whom he maintains a great relationship, from a sister and brother in the Los Angeles area to relatives spread from Hawaii to New York and Australia. He received a Congressional Award Gold Medal in Washington, D.C., which was presented to him by Nick Cannon, host of America’s Got Talent. He was impressed by how many states were represented by other winners, and it meant a lot to Dane to be representing California and San Diego county. “I will never forget the Washington, D.C. experience I had,” he exclaimed, "it was one of the greatest moments in my life.” Volunteering in education and music will continue to be important to Dane, whose eclectic love of all types of music only adds to his renaissance sensibilities. The feeling he gets making a difference in the developing minds and character of children is a special thing. “Music is so important to human culture,” Dane said, “and I love to bring it to the consciousness of children, along with all people. A person should ultimately pursue what his/her heart desires, and never give up on dreams.” ¢

Celebrating Milestones CARLSBAD’S LITERACY PROGRAM TURNS 30

he Carlsbad City Library Literacy Services program, which offers free reading, writing, and computer skills training, is celebrating thirty years of service. Today it has eighty-two active tutors and seventy-four matched volunteer tutor, or learner, pairs. “Around twenty years ago, computers were integrated into the curriculum of the literacy program. It adopted a core belief that computer skills were not an end in themselves, but instead were important reading and writing tools that were as essential as books, pens, and paper,” Community Outreach Supervisor Carrie Scott explained. In 2008 the program moved into the Carlsbad City Library Learning Center. This February the program expanded the Learning Center’s hours. Carlsbad Literacy Services has earned ongoing community support, including a seventeen-year partnership with Carlsbad High School to offer reading, writing, and study skills support to selected special-education students. Students earn class credit for the time they spend at the Learning Center. The program continues to grow with new offerings like Playaway Bookpacks, a book with an audio player allowing the reader to listen to a book while reading it. Grants are also being received to expand technology use in the literacy program. Additionally, the Summer Youth Literacy Program, in partnership

with the library’s Bilingual Services, will offer a literacy program parallel to the library’s summer reading program, pairing students in grades one through four and their parents with a volunteer tutor to improve the students’ reading level.

THE HALLINANS BALANCE SCHOOL, WORK, AND SPORTS WITH A FOCUS ON FAMILY by JENNIFER FRAKES | photos by Lauren Nygard Photography

o say that the Hallinan family is an active local family would be a bit of an understatement. “All of our kids are pretty competitive and involved in sports, so we spend a lot of time traveling to soccer and lacrosse tournaments, gymnastics meets, and cheerleading events,” stated Karen Hallinan, a family nurse practitioner, busy wife, and mother of three. Karen, her husband Greg, a marketing executive for eDriving, Inc. and a colonel in the U.S. Marine Corp Reserves, and their three children are always on the go and wouldn’t have it any other way.

CHS Dancers Offer Dance Classes

Carlsbad High School Wins MaxPreps Cup

Foreign Film Fridays

The Carlsbad Village Association (CVA) will transform a large tree at the corner of State St. and Grand Ave. into a “giving tree” for the month of November. Starting Saturday, Nov. 1, residents of Carlsbad are encouraged to visit the tree and write what they are most thankful for on each of the paper leaves. These messages will be collected daily and placed in a small mailbox. On Friday, Nov. 28, all of the leaves gathered will be hung on the tree for residents to appreciate. “The giving tree encourages the community to share what means most to them,” said Doug Avis, Chair of the CVA Board of Directors. “It is located in the heart of The Village, so visitors who come to the tree can connect to what makes The Village so special – its people.”

Carlsbad High School (CHS) was recently awarded first place in the MaxPreps Cup for the 2013-2014 school year. In the MaxPreps Cup, schools accumulate points for winning, or playing in, state championship games. Points are also awarded based on type of sport, size of the school, and size of the state. Finishing the year as CIF Champions in boys soccer, boys lacrosse, girls softball, boys and girls water polo, and boys swim, as well as CIF Finalists in boys volleyball and boys cross country, the Lancers came in first place for the athletic year with 618 points on the MaxPreps scale.

MIRACOSTA COLLEGE

MiraCosta College Celebrates 80 Years of Educational Excellence

hen MiraCosta College was established in 1934, a box of corn flakes cost just eight cents. But it was the Depression and people were struggling to come up with those eight cents. They were looking for jobs, but jobs were hard to find, and even harder to find without a higher education. In North San Diego County in 1934, local community leaders were also looking

for opportunities, and they decided the area needed a local source for higher education – one that didn’t cost an arm and a leg. It was then that Oceanside-Carlsbad Junior College was born. Its beginning was humble –“O-CJC” enrolled only 120 students and had just 20 faculty members. But what started out as a stepping stone to a university quickly morphed into something more as the decades ticked by. It became a vocational training facility for women so they could enter the workforce while

Q&A

with Olivier Brackett

WHAT IS THE HISTORY BEHIND THE MCCLELLAN-PALOMAR AIRPORT?

CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE SIGNIFICANCE BEHIND THE NAME OF THE AIRPORT?

McClellan-Palomar Airport (CRQ) started in Del Mar as a former Naval blimp base. When the I-5 was built, the federal government required that the county relocate the airport and the present site was selected – it was formerly used as the strawberry fields. McClellan-Palomar airport is one of eight airports operated by the County of San Diego, which include Gillespie Field and Ramona Airport – a Calfire base. It was opened on March 20, 1959.

On May 1, 1982, the County Board of Supervisors proclaimed the airport McClellan-Palomar Airport in honor of Gerald C. McClellan, who was instrumental in the incorporation of the City of Carlsbad and served on the city’s airport advisory committee and personnel commission. He was the past president and secretary of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce. He was also active in educational affairs and served on the board of directors of Mira Costa College, held a PTA life membership, and served on various school committees. Mr. McClellan also sponsored a language scholarship trophy at Carlsbad High School. He was active in his church, where he served as president of the church corporation and also taught Sunday school. Additionally, as a youth leader, Mr. McClellan sat on the Carlsbad Boy’s Club advisory committee and awarded club members with rides in his personal airplane. He also served as a San Luis Rey District Boy Scouts chairman, scout master, and committee member.

PLEASE PROVIDE US WITH SOME BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON YOUR STAFF. McClellan-Palomar Airport has seven on-site staff dedicated full-time to its operation. The county has additional staff at the Gillespie Field airports headquarters who support all eight county airports in areas such as real estate, maintenance, regulatory compliance, and other matters. I am the airport manager. I served twenty years with the United States Marine Corps. My duties included air traffic control, tower manager, and FAA examiner for MCAS Camp Pendleton. Before assuming my current position, I served as a volunteer, the first security and safety coordinator for all eight county airports, and noise officer and assistant manager at CRQ. I have a BS in Professional Aeronautics from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. I have worked for the county for thirteen years. John Otto is the assistant airport manager.

CAN YOU ELABORATE MORE ABOUT THE AREAS THE AIRPORT SERVICES? WHAT TYPES OF FLIGHTS TAKE OFF AND LAND AT THE MCCLELLAN-PALOMAR AIRPORT? The airport and the many businesses at the airport offer a variety of services ranging from flight training, aircraft charter and rental, aircraft maintenance and fueling, and a great restaurant.

WHICH AIRLINES SCHEDULE FLIGHTS AT THIS AIRPORT? United Express currently serves our market with seven round trips a day to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).

HAVE YOU HELD ANY EVENTS AT THE AIRPORT? The ariport celebrated its 50th anniversary on July 29, 2009. Also, The Collings Foundation flies WWII-era aircraft into the airport on an annual basis that typically include a B-24 Liberator – thousands of which were produced here in San Diego – a B-25 Mitchell bomber, and a P-51 Mustang long-range fighter credited with helping win WWII in the European Theatre by escorting long-range bombers to their targets and back to base. This event draws hundreds of visitors including scores of WWII veterans who are able to sit in and even fly in the same type of aircraft they operated during bombing missions over Europe some seven decades ago. Additionally, we routinely provide tours for schools and people of all ages.

HAVE ANY NOTABLE FIGURES OR CELEBRITIES VISITED THE AIRPORT? Can you keep a secret? I can too. There are a number of people who enjoy the anonymity of traveling by private aircraft.

WHAT’S IN STORE FOR THE FUTURE OF THE AIRPORT? The future of the airport is exciting and the Master Plan will provide the direction.

WHAT’S THE MOST EXCITING ASPECT ABOUT WORKING AT THE AIRPORT? The ability to serve the public in a dynamic environment and working every day with a great staff.

HOW DOES THE AIRPORT STAY CONNECTED TO ITS NEIGHBORS IN CARLSBAD? The airport stays connected to the community by its regularly scheduled public meetings – eight per year – dedicated to the master plan process, public presentations, and airport tours open the public.

IF YOU COULD DESCRIBE THE AIRPORT IN FIVE WORDS OR LESS, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY? Best kept secret in North County!

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH OUR READERS? Using CRQ allows North County travelers to lower their carbon footprint when traveling by eliminating multiple vehicles on the road. Using McClellanPalomar Airport as starting or ending points greatly reduces the “hassle factor” because while CRQ has all of the same security requirements of any other commercial airport, it is on a smaller scale and therefore much quicker. Also, inexpensive parking is near the new terminal, which is built in a sea-sky motif with shell-encrusted floors in sweeping conch shell patterns, overhead canopies that mimic sailboats, and floor-to-ceiling windows to take advantage of light and sea breezes. There are several outdoor areas, and even rocking chairs to allow our passengers and visitors the chance to relax. The airport also has a customs office for travelers arriving from outside the U.S. McClellan-Palomar Airport generates tens of millions of dollars in personal income earned by the nearly 400 people employed at the airport, in business revenue generated by airport industries, and state and local tax revenues. McClellan-Palomar Airport with its extensive facilities, new terminal, great restaurant, and convenience is something the entire community can be proud of. ¢

MARGARET RUBINSTEIN HAPPILY VOLUNTEERS AT THE CARLSBAD LIBRARY LEARNING CENTER by AMY LEHRER | photo by Lauren Nygard Photography

hirteen years ago Margaret Rubinstein moved with her husband and two children to the Aviara community in south Carlsbad for the good schools and fantastic community. An empty-nester now that her daughter attends the University of Chicago and her son attends the University of Santa Barbara, Margaret has more time to volunteer. She exclaimed, “Finding out about the Library Learning Center from the San Diego Union-Tribune was my lucky day!” Her background is in teaching, having taught first through third grade in Houston, TX and adult learners English as a second language in a program called Padres e Progresso – she was a perfect volunteer for the Carlsbad City Library Learning Center. “The Carlsbad City Library Learning Center is a warm, comfortable community gathering place where lifelong learning is supported for all ages,” explained Margaret. The center’s friendly English/Spanish speaking staff helps people gather information, improve their literacy, and meet their learning needs. Margaret has always liked working with children to expand their horizons because it makes her feel hopeful, and she also feels fulfilled when she helps adult learners reach goals like being able to write an email to school staff, fill out a job application, or pass the GED. Learners who attend the center have access to Spanish, English, and bilingual books, audiobooks, DVDs and CDs in addition to literacy tutoring for adults, homework assistance for students, public computer access, computer classes, and study rooms. The Carlsbad Library Learning Center always needs more volunteers. Anyone interested in helping should call or email the center. Volunteers will meet with staff for an introductory overview of what the center offers, complete an easy in-service, and receive materials necessary for helping learners meet their literacy needs. Margaret and her husband, a wealth advisor at ICM Private Client Group, Inc., enjoy dining at new restaurants downtown. Two of their favorites are Land and Sea and Blue Ocean. Margaret also enjoys running, taking exercise classes at her gym, walking her dog, walking on the sidewalks at the beach, eating Target popcorn and, of course, reading at the Dove Library. ¢ Group: Purpose: Phone: Website:

:::: HOME TIPS

Energy Saving Tips

for the Season by TORI MORRISON

ith the kids back in school and the holidays right around the corner, it’s important to monitor your spending during these busy months. If you haven’t started, now’s the time to cut back on energy use within the home. Here are some easy tips to get you started.

Unplug, Unplug, Unplug Make sure you unplug devices when they are not being used. Be especially mindful of computers and laptops. According to the Residential Energy Services Network (RESN), even when these devices are turned off, they will still consume power when they are plugged in and can account for five to ten percent of your total household electricity bill.

Cover Your Windows Blinds, drapes, and window coverings can help reduce energy waste and keep your energy bill low. As the temperatures in October and November remain in the high seventies, close your blinds, curtains, and window coverings to keep the house cooler. According to RESN, your air conditioning will have to work up to thirty percent harder to cool your home otherwise.

Use the Right Bulb Replace standard bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL). The bulbs give off the same amount of light, but are much more energy-efficient. Ensure that you are using the right size bulb for your light fixture.

Adjust Temperature Settings Maintaining a higher indoor temperature setting during summer and a lower indoor temperature setting during winter saves energy. Keep the temperature comfortable by making adjustments to your thermostat before you get home.

Schedule a Home Energy Audit Reach out to a certified home energy auditor for a home energy audit. A home energy audit is an in-depth home examination done by an expert to find out where energy is being lost. The expert then assists the homeowner and offers possible solutions. ¢

CARLSBAD TEEN WINS GOLD FOR TEAM USA AT KARATE CHAMPIONSHIPS

arlsbad resident Kacie Rose Pou is a high achiever. She recently competed in the USA National Karate Federation (USANKF) Championships and USA Team Trials, taking home a gold and silver medal in two 14-15 female divisions. “The USANKF Championship was much harder this year. In my second round I had to fight the Team USA winner from last year! I knew if I could win this match, I would have a good chance at getting on the U.S. Team,” exclaimed Kacie. Her performance earned her a spot on Junior Team USA, which competed in the JR Pan American Championships this past summer. Kacie continued to shine, winning Gold for Team USA. She was one of the three USA team members to win a gold medal. Team USA came in 4th place overall in team points. Kacie has been training in karate for over nine years, beginning at the age of 5 because her parents felt it was important to teach their children self-defense. She owes her success to her family, who are her biggest supporters, as well as to her instructors. “My main instructor Hanshi Miki has spent many, many hours with me for the last eight years. Some of the other very helpful instructors include Sensei Sherry, Sensei Jorge, Sensei Benjamin, Sempai Josa, and my brother,” stated Kacie. Kacie’s goals for the future include winning gold for Team USA at Junior World. She hopes karate will win a spot in the adult Olympics so she can bring home another gold medal for her country and hear America’s national anthem play. ¢

Wrapping Your Head Around Concussions FIVE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT HEAD INJURIES by MICHAEL VANBUSKIRK, MD; Scripps Clinic, Encinitas

1. No two concussions are the same. A concussion, usually caused by a blow to the head or violent shaking, is a head injury that can cause physical symptoms and neurological damage. Concussions affect people in many ways, including headache, vomiting, sleep changes, balance or visual issues, memory or cognitive problems, and emotional changes. Concussions do not always lead to loss of consciousness; in fact, most people never pass out. This is commonly referred to as “getting your bell rung.” That’s why some people can suffer a concussion and not realize it. Others may describe seeing all white, all black, or “stars” upon impact. Younger children may have delayed symptoms.

2. Concussion can happen many ways, in many places. Although contact sports such as boxing and football have received a lot of attention due to their risk of head injuries, concussions can occur on and off the playing field, among both children and adults. Common causes include falls, playground injuries, car accidents, and bike accidents. An indirect “jarring” of the head can also cause concussions. Other high-risk activities include cheerleading, hockey, soccer, skiing, and snowboarding.

3. One concussion can lead to another. Those diagnosed with one concussion are far more likely to be diagnosed with another concussion in the future. In fact, a previous incidence of concussion is the number one predictor for future concussions. In particular, sustaining a second concussion during the healing period of a previous concussion may cause serious long-term problems, including chronic difficulty with concentration, memory trouble, headaches, and physical impairment such as problems maintaining balance.

removed from play and not allowed to return until free of symptoms and cleared by a health care professional trained in concussion management. In the past, athletes were often mistakenly allowed to return to the game after a “mild” head injury that didn’t cause loss of consciousness, but today experts agree there is no such thing as a “small” concussion. Every blow to the head is potentially serious and should be treated conservatively.

5. Rest and let your brain heal. Physical and mental rest is very important following a concussion because it helps the brain heal. You’ll need to be patient because healing takes time. Only when your symptoms have reduced significantly should you slowly return to your daily activities, such as work or school. If your symptoms return or you experience new symptoms as you become more active, this is a sign that you are pushing yourself too hard. Stop these activities and take more time to rest and recover. With time and proper medical management, you can expect to gradually feel better. ¢

4. When in doubt, sit it out. The American Academy of Neurology recommends that every athlete suspected of having a concussion should immediately be

he City of Carlsbad, in partnership with the Fiesta del Barrio Carlsbad Association, recently celebrated Fiesta del Barrio Carlsbad at Pine Avenue Community Park. Hundreds of attendees were entertained by Aztec and ballet folkloric dancers, as well as mariachi and latin bands. It was a day of celebration and collaboration, bringing Carlsbad residents together to inform them about the cultural heritage of the Barrio. Highlights included an arts and crafts area, a community yoga area, classic cars on display, a salute to local heroes of the community, and tours of the Barrio museum. The festive atmosphere inspired the creation of vibrant art throughout the Barrio area as artists of all abilities created hands-on artwork. Artist Skye Walker painted a mural at the Boys & Girls Club on Oak Ave., and budding young artists from Sage Creek High School contributed their talents by painting utility boxes throughout the neighborhood. Proceeds will go towards community education projects and scholarships. The City would like to thank the Fiesta del Barrio Carlsbad Association for helping make this year’s celebration come to life. ¢

Carlsbad Educator Wins Teacher of the Year FOURTH GRADE TEACHER MAKES JEFFERSON ELEMENTARY PROUD

aria Teran-Cruz, a local fourth grade teacher at Jefferson Elementary School, was named among five teachers honored with the San Diego Teacher of the Year award at the annual “Cox Presents: A Salute to Teachers” event. “This honor belongs to the entire community,” she said. “It belongs to Carlsbad, to Jefferson Elementary, and especially to my little ones. Those little ones make me the teacher I am.” The five Teachers of the Year from public schools all over San Diego were selected based on student achievement, teaching philosophy, community involvement, and knowledge of current issues in education. Maria came to San Diego after escaping the civil war in Nicaragua with her family. She went on to become a chiropractor, but after seven years found she was drawn to teaching. “I knew I wanted to help and work with children,” she explained. “In teaching, I have discovered the difference between liking what I do and loving what I do, the difference between a job and a calling.” Maria strives to teach her students that education is not only learning academics, but also learning how to navigate life with honor and dedication. Her goal is to instill values of integrity, honesty, and hard work into the children she teaches. Maria TeraCruz and the other San Diego Teachers of the Year will represent San Diego County in the California Teacher of the Year program. The state winner will be announced later this year. ¢

PARADING

AROUND SAN DIEGO Local Traditions Keep the Holiday Cheer Alive

by LAINEY KRAL

an Diegans may not experience classic white winters, but we still know how to celebrate the season. In fact, our sunny weather makes December an even better time to take our holiday cheer to the streets. From people to pets and from shore to sea, San Diego has a parade perfect for everyone. Head to North Park on Dec. 6 for the 51st Annual North Park Toyland Parade, a local tradition that dates back to 1936 and was reborn in the late 1980s. Every year, University Ave. fills with marching bands, dance teams, beauty queens, local dignitaries, and community members eager to strut their stuff. Special guests include the new Queen of the North Park Toyland Parade and Santa Claus himself. You won’t want to leave Toyland, and you won’t have to – the Toyland Festival will prolong the magic with pony rides, inflatables, food trucks, and live musical performances. Parades aren’t just for people, and your fourlegged friends can join the fun in the Gaslamp Holiday Pet Parade on Dec. 14. Dress up in your holiday best and promenade through the historic Gaslamp Quarter with a bevy of other celebrants, starting and ending at the Gaslamp Hilton Park. Awards are available in categories such as Best Pet Costume, Cutest Critter, and Ugliest Holiday Sweater. Pets and their human chaperones will get a free bag of goodies at the accompanying Pet Expo. San Diego is known as a surf and turf hotspot, and the San Diego Bay Parade of Lights keeps the holiday spirit afloat – literally! On Dec. 14 and 21, over eighty illuminated boats will proceed from Shelter Island past Harbor Island, the Embarcadero, Seaport Village, and Ferry Landing in Coronado. Participants will bedeck their boats in lights and decorations according to this year’s theme of “Children’s Stories”. Various award categories are judged on creativity of lighting, music, and other special effects. Whether sailing your own boat or camping out on the shore, watch the water come alive with light and sound. ¢

Two of North County Spa’s specialties are ashiatsu and reflexology. Ashiatsu massage is a Japanese style of massage where pressure is applied to the back through the clothes by using bare feet, knees, elbows, and palms. Reflexology focuses on the feet. By applying pressure to specific points, reflexology can influence the well-being of other areas of the body. “Modern science tells us that when pressure is applied on a specific area of the foot, signals are sent throughout the body that puts the nervous system in balance. Chemicals, such as endorphins, are released. These chemicals reduce stress and pain,” explained Hui. He is quick to point out

that clients who are ticklish needn’t worry. “Our therapists apply enough pressure to avoid that ticklish sensation, yet never enough to cause pain or discomfort.” Reflexology, ashiatsu, and other forms of massage can improve conditions such as stress, headaches, muscle strains or sprains, circulatory issues, arthritis, tendonitis, and digestive troubles. According to Hui, massage lowers the level of stress hormones, detoxifies the body, and improves circulation and muscle tone. “We want all of our clients to leave relaxed and rejuvenated. No matter which type of massage a client prefers, we want to make sure he or she receives the best and most relaxing experience,” said Hui.

Hui and his staff are trained, licensed, and experienced in massage therapies and techniques. The therapists sit down with each client, learn about their needs and physical issues, and develop specific massage procedures that will be the most beneficial to the client’s unique situation. Hui encourages all those who would like to experience a relaxing and healing massage to visit North County Spa. “We currently have a buy ten massage treatments, get two free offer that will continue through the rest of the year. Also, a gift card for a massage makes the perfect holiday gift,” said Hui. For more information visit www.massagetherapycarlsbad.com. ¢

rtSplash Chalk Art and Entertainment Festival, Carlsbad’s annual fall classic, created a colorful weekend of arts, entertainment, food, and fun in Carlsbad. This year’s theme “Hats Off to Artists” marked the twelfth anniversary for this community celebration of arts education. The Dencho family of Carlsbad said they enjoyed all aspects of ArtSplash, especially the many interactive activities for their young daughter, “We love everything. The music, art, face painting and all the happy people.” Event proceeds support arts and music programs in schools, with grants enriching K through 12 programs in Carlsbad, Encinitas, Oceanside, Vista, and San Marcos. To date, ArtSplash has donated nearly $60,000 to North County schools. ArtSplash Chair Joni Miringoff explained, “ArtSplash draws people together and brings out their innate imaginative talents. The grant recipients’ commitment to the arts and their students is precisely what our organization seeks to support. We are so pleased to offer these funds to our schools.” ¢

How Does the Rest of 2014 Look? by GLENN HOLTZ & TANYA GABRIELLA

s we look back at the first half of 2014 we had a very slow start. Per CAR Market Snapshot, sales were down more than 10% for the first half of the year due to an increase in home prices, an interest rate hike, and lack of investment properties for the investors. At the end of the second quarter we saw sales started picking up which was a good sign. The decrease in sales in June was the smallest since September 2013. Supply conditions in the housing market also showed signs of improvement when compared to the previous year. With inventory improving and home sales slowly moving back up, the market is more balanced, and we can see further market normalization in the upcoming months as interest rates remain at the lowest level we have seen so far this year. Interest rates are projected to increase towards the end of the year, so sales should improve in the second half of the year as many primary home buyers realize this.

Home sales for the rest of the year are expected to be at about the same level as that of last year and a stronger economy should propel the housing market to bounce back in 2015. Now is the time to move forward with your real estate plans. The first step is to contact us! ¢
