Household Fiscal Year?
W
Derrick Breaux Publisher
hile many businesses use a calendar year for convenient accounting purposes, I’ve come to realize that the vast majority of people actually run their homes similar to a fiscal year basis. Sure, everyone likes to gear up and prepare for the big symbolic New Year celebration, but for most families, January 1 merely marks the halfway point on the annual journey of household responsibility and schedules. Shouldn’t there be a big prize waiting for each of us when we finish the year? A calendar year ending in December doesn’t seem very exciting. Kids go back to school in January – certainly no prize for most of them. Tax season is looming right after the beginning of the new calendar year. Again, not very exciting for most of us. Although technically a new year, everyone is typically still quite involved with trying to get through their fiscal year. What I mean by this is that the end of the year for most families seems to take place in June. That’s right… June is officially the end of our household fiscal year. June is when kids finish school – in fact, many kids graduate or get promoted to the next grade. It is the month that moms and dads are typically limping through the finish line donating their final volunteer hours in the classrooms (I have to admit that I’ve read a few hilarious postings about this in some of my recent social media binges). Spring sports are finishing up. The gift of warm weather is upon us. Summer must be the end-of-year prize! Although we are spoiled in San Diego and blessed with beautiful weather year-round, I still love summer. Summer brings freedom for kids – I’m sure some parents may argue that it can also bring boredom. Summer is a time for family vacations, trips to the beach, outside barbeques, walks with the dog, playing outside until sunset, and creating lifelong memories. Perhaps we should all rethink the traditional New Year celebration concept. What we should all really be celebrating is a Year “End” party (in June). I see the Year End celebration as a festive event where adults get to congratulate each other for actually making it through the year in one piece. The occasion should include high fives, hugs, toasts, and perhaps, some type of victory dance. I definitely think that we might be on to something here. I hope everyone has a great summer!

With Three Kids and Five Pets, the Evans Family Enjoys the Happy Chaos by LYDIA COBB | photo by Dawn at Nicoli Productions
J
ordan and Rebecca were on a cruise ship to Mexico attending separate family vacations. They met in the hot tub. “We spent much of the duration of the cruise watching shows in the theater and talking in the buffet for hours on end,” reflected Jordan Evans. With three young children and four pets, the Evans family moved to Rancho Santalina over a year ago. They’ve lived in and out of the community. “We sold our house in Temecula and wanted to be closer to the business and family, so we moved back,” added Jordan. Parents: Children: Community: Hometown: Profession: Pets: Favorite Places:

Jordan and Rebecca Evans Kaden (9, fifth grade at La Costa Meadows Elementary School), Taylor (7, second grade at La Costa Meadows Elementary School), Dillon (2) Rancho Santalina Jordan – Encinitas; Rebecca – Thousand Oaks Jordan – managing partner at The UPS Store; Rebecca – CEO of the Evans household Tucker – dog; Seuss, Minnie, and Daisy – cats; Duchess – bunny Stone Brewery, Mama Kat’s Restaurant & Pie Shop, Discovery Lake, Slater’s 50/50
Jordan is the managing partner at The UPS Store in Encinitas, a career he started when he joined the company at age 16. He holds a bachelor’s degree in business management from University of Phoenix. The Encinitas location is the number one store for sales volume in the county, and the second UPS store to offer onsite 3D printing. Rebecca published Handmade Hostess two years ago, a book she co-wrote with her sister about hosting memorable parties. She reveals their passions for do-it-yourself decorating, baking, and sewing. With the family’s fondness for entertaining, they stay active – family trips to Disneyland, the beach, and camping are their favorite activities together. The Evans’ are also committed to the Ronald McDonald House, which focuses on the needs of critically ill children and their families. They volunteer wherever help is needed. Jordan is on several committees and is on the board of the Red Shoe Society. He’s planning Red Shoe Day and cochairing Red Shoes and Brews. Kaden and Taylor will attend La Costa Meadows Elementary this fall. Kaden is involved with competitive saber fencing, while Taylor is exploring various interests. They both love reading and playing with their little sister Dillon. “We like to have family dance parties in the family room,” expressed Jordan. Sometimes the kids have pretty good moves, or they get silly and let loose. “It’s super important to be able to laugh and have fun together. With three kids, a dog, three cats, and a rabbit, we find ourselves constantly laughing at the chaos.” It’s the celebration of all the little moments that makes life more joyful for the Evans family.
“WE LIKE TO HAVE FAMILY DANCE PARTIES IN THE FAMILY ROOM.”

In a large stockpot, combine 2 tablespoons of oil (olive, vegetable, etc.) and celery, carrots, and onion. Add salt and pepper to taste and cook on medium-high heat, stirring occasionally for about 15 minutes. While the vegetables cook, remove husks and silk from the corn and place the corn over direct flame on stovetop or grill for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side (until a few kernels are charred). Set aside. In a medium frying pan, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and turkey sausage. Cook on medium-high heat until cooked through (about 7 minutes). After the vegetables have cooked for 15 minutes and are reduced in volume by about half, add chicken broth, cooked turkey, beans, and spices.

About the Chef Submit a rec www.9 2078ma ipe at gazine.c om
Name of Chef: Rebecca Schade Family Members: Jeff Schade and Barley the Shih Tzu Community: San Marcos Interests: Travel! I am always on the move and the great thing about California is that there is always a new adventure just a quick ride away. Favorite Local Activity: My husband and I spend a lot of time exploring the hiking trails of San Marcos and Escondido and love checking out local breweries afterwards to rehydrate. About the Recipe: I love this recipe because it is so versatile and easy to customize to each season. In the summer I use nice, light turkey sausage and add grilled sweet corn. In the winter I use smoked sausage or ham and add roasted butternut squash to make it a bit more hearty. I think it might be good with chorizo and black beans, too! Another great thing about this recipe is the fact that it can be easily made in the Crock-Pot. About the Chef: When I cook at home I love to base my meals on what is in season and looks particularly good at the store. Sometimes a steak in the meat case just looks too good to pass up, or maybe the produce department happens to have the most beautiful radishes. I like to find my ingredients and design a meal around them. ¢

He recalled, “I briefly attended the Boys & Girls Club as a youth at its original San Marcos location, which was just a portable trailer at Woodland Elementary, now Woodland Middle School. It only had foosball, a bumper pool, and some couches.” Flash forward to his adult years and Jason happened to be conversing with his business partner’s sister, Shelly Anguiano, who was the former CEO of the Boys & Girls Club. Jason recounted, “Shelly went into detail about how much the Club has grown. For example, it is now the premier nonprofit organization in San Marcos, helping almost 3,000 kids annually. I knew I wanted to get involved and help continue that growth because I have always been passionate about helping kids learn and grow.” Now Jason will be the board chair for the 2015-2016 year, largely because of his success in manning the Boys & Girls Club’s Annual Auction event. Jason claimed, “I am auction co-chair with Chris Cochran from Stone Brewing Company, and we have created the premier fundraising event in San Marcos. Almost all prominent San Marcos civic and business leaders attend and support this event. Last year we raised almost $40,000 more than when I started a few years ago!” Jason is a bit of an expert when it comes to business dealings, and he jokingly refers to himself as a “serial entrepreneur and philanthrop-oholic!” Over the course of his life Jason has been running his family land business development company, overseeing a restaurant that he owns with his wife, and lending a hand to a few startup companies in such industries as mobile technology, sports complexes, and jewelry manufacturing. As the new board chair, Jason’s goals include maintaining an efficient annual budget, increasing the Club’s reach towards teens, and expanding onto new school sites. Jason stated, “San Marcos ranks in the top one percent in the nation for efficiency, and we are dedicated to being efficient with the dollar and making the biggest impact we can on kids.” He gratefully added, “We are able to make every dollar work so hard because of the terrific volunteers who dedicate thousands of hours every year!” Group: Mission: Website:

A Natural-Born Leader Talented and Passionate, Hurlink Vongsachang Does His Part to Better the Lives of Youth in the Community by MICHELLE TREMBLAY | photo by Dawn at Nicoli Productions
H
urlink Vongsachang (currently age 16) had a monumental eighth grade school year. While he was skilled in playing five musical instruments – the Chinese hammered dulcimer, the Chinese flute, the Chinese trumpet, the saxophone, and the cello – Hurlink joined the Civic Youth Orchestra in the Symphony division. “We play pieces from artists like Tchaikovsky and Beethoven,” he shared. It was during this same year that he created the San Diego Chinese Youth Music Ensemble. “It is made up of students who play traditional Chinese music from all around San Diego, to promote and spread the Chinese culture and the Asian community,” explained Hurlink, who at a young age was encouraged by his father to learn everything about Chinese culture. As if his year wasn’t busy enough, Hurlink also took up hip hop dancing and later joined the San Marcos All Male Dance Team. “I didn't like it at first,” he said about learning the dance style, “but I came to realize how fun dancing could be, especially with people who I could relate to!”

But perhaps one of Hurlink’s biggest achievements during eighth grade was taking on the role of co-president and teacher for the San Marcos Youth Orchestra (SMYO), a nonprofit community service-based organization operated by high school students. “SMYO is committed to offering a musical educational outreach program that nurtures the lifelong appreciation and enthusiasm for music,” noted Hurlink. “Our mission is to teach the violin and cello to children all around the school district, to enrich children with music, and to spread the love for music all around San Marcos.” SMYO was started in 2007 by Hurlink’s two older sisters and cousins. “Moving from Arizona, my sisters and cousins found that there was no orchestra program here in San Marcos schools, and so they decided to create and found their own orchestra,” explained Hurlink. Since that time, Hurlink has made it his mission to continue what his family had started; now, in addition to SMYO’s concerts, the organization gives back to the community by performing at city-wide events, retirement homes, and children’s hospitals. “SMYO is a very valuable organization,” noted Hurlink, whose main responsibilities as co-president include enforcing policies, sending informational emails, finding new pieces of music for the orchestra to play, and planning future concerts. “All of this is a lot of work, but I think the most invaluable things that I get out of being co-president are being able to learn how to lead at an early age and getting to help the youth like me on a city-wide level.” When asked who inspires him, Hurlink replied, “My sisters and the youth of San Marcos inspire me to lead SMYO because I believe I can contribute to and better the lives of the youth with the knowledge that I have.”

This year’s tournament showcased the skills of players ages seven to 18 in over 100 teams from over 30 local clubs, and sponsors included Adidas and soccerloco. In addition to the fierce competition there was an air of celebration and community, with participants and volunteers getting dressed to impress in pink.

The San Marcos Library Provides Innovative Programs for the Whole Community photos by Dawn at Nicoli Productions
With the second largest circulation in the entire San Diego County Library system, the San Marcos Library welcomes between 800 and 1,000 community members through its doors on a daily basis. The library has grown considerably in terms of materials, programs, and number of patrons since it first opened in a small trailer near the old City Hall. Through all the changes, one thing has remained constant – the branch’s dedication to giving patrons of all ages and backgrounds the opportunity to learn and explore. We spoke with Branch Manager Ruth Ketchum about the San Marcos Library’s enthusiatic staff members, engaging programs for all ages, and exciting technological evolution.

Q&A with Branch Manager
Ruth Ketchum Which specific areas does the library serve? The City of San Marcos and surrounding areas of San Diego County. What is your current role at the library? What do you enjoy most about your job? I’m the branch manager. I have an opportunity here to serve a great, dynamic, and diverse community; I really enjoy meeting and assisting San Marcos customers with what they want to learn and discover. People here are kind and respectful to each other, creative, and lots of fun. It’s a real pleasure. I enjoy trying out new ideas and connecting people with opportunities. How has the library changed or evolved over time? It’s become more innovative, proactive, and community-centered. People and their reading interests are more diverse, and most formats have changed. Information delivery is much faster, more efficient, and global. Library staff moved from being gatekeepers of knowledge to opening doors to learning and the world of ideas and cultures for all. What sets the San Marcos Library apart from other San Diego public libraries? We’re the second busiest library in the entire County system; San Marcos people like to read! We’re open seven days a week, and during the recession we added hours instead of cutting them. All of our programs are free of charge, and it’s free to check anything out, including DVD movies.

Hall on Richmar Street. During the 1960s it was open to the public for 17 hours a week. A “Bookmobile” visited the site twice a month for three hours.
San Diego County Library was established in 1913 by the Board of Supervisors. Nine branches and a small school collection were established in the first year with more added each year. The San Marcos Library first opened in a small trailer parked near the old City
In January 1972 the county remodeled a 2,000 square foot building at 131 West Richmar St. and a new home was found for the San Marcos Library. Needing additional space, the San Marcos Library relocated to 847 West San Marcos Blvd. at the corner of Bent St. with 5,000 square feet on June 6, 1985.

The library is 15,394 square feet and is open 62 hours a week, seven days a week. The San Marcos Library has the second highest circulation of library materials in the San Diego County Library system. My, how we’ve grown!

er curriculum vitae showcases a career committed to improving higher education, empowering women’s leadership, and increasing opportunities for underrepresented student populations. President of California State University San Marcos (CSUSM) and Vista resident since 2004, Dr. Karen Haynes is leading the collaboration of the college and community. “When I started my presidency at CSUSM, I felt a strong commitment to doing what was best for this region: educating traditionally underserved and diverse student populations, and those who would stay in our region and give back to their communities after graduation,” Karen explained. As a first generation college graduate herself who advanced to complete her doctorate in social work, Karen understands the challenges and impacts intimately. “I am, first and foremost, a macro-practitioner of social work,” she acknowledged. “Today we have gained national recognition for our efforts to attract and support traditionally underrepresented student populations, including ethnic minorities, American Indians, veterans, and former foster youth.” For the last decade Karen has led CSUSM in considerable growth: doubling the number of buildings, opening the off-campus center in Temecula, greatly increasing the number of academic

programs, and more than doubling student enrollment to nearly 14,000. “This year I shook the hands of some 2,650 proud CSUSM graduates. Every year when I see them walk across that stage, diverse in every aspect, I can’t help but be proud of what we are achieving together,” Karen shared. Karen’s decision to relocate to Vista and accept the position at CSUSM was grounded in the school and community. “At the time, the university was only 14 years old. I saw that many people were drawn here for the same reason I was – to mold a new, truly unique and innovative university,” Karen stated. Her husband, Jim Mickelson, is the Director of ACE Scholars Services, supporting former foster youth at CSUSM and co-author of a textbook with Karen. Their professional lives were paired with parenting; they have three adult children and four grandchildren living across the United States. Heading into her second decade at the helm of CSUSM, Karen looks forward to celebrating the school’s 25th anniversary. “For a quarter of a century, there has been great synergy between the university and our region. We have literally grown up together, coming of age as we have helped create and were fed and nurtured by, our region’s business, organizations, schools, neighborhoods, and cities,” Karen stated.

Debunking First-Aid Myths FOOD IS BEST EATEN, NOT USED FOR INJURIES Back to school can be a whirlwind of sports and new activities that result in minor injuries. Here are a few first aid myths that may do more harm than good. Put butter on a burn. First-degree burns – the skin is red, but still feeling normal – can be treated at home, but don’t pull out the butter dish. Butter may do wonders for your mashed potatoes but it does nothing for burns except add foreign particles and increase the risk of infection. Reach for a cool cloth and a frozen bag of vegetables instead. Minor burns need to be cooled, so run cool water over the burned area for at least 10 minutes and then apply an over-the-counter antibiotic. Throw back your head if you have a nose bleed. Never tilt your head back to stop a nose bleed as it will only make the blood flow down the throat into the lungs or into the stomach, which may cause vomiting. To stop a bloody nose, lean slightly forward and pinch your nose just below the bony part where glasses sit using your thumb and index finger. Press firmly for no less than five to 10 minutes. If a bloody nose follows an accident or injury to the head, seek medical attention immediately. Also contact your primary care doctor if you have frequent nosebleeds or if they are difficult to control.
by VERONICA REYES, M.D.; Scripps Coastal Medical Center Escondido
Apply cold only to a twisted knee or ankle. How you treat a twisted ankle or knee depends on the stage of the injury. If you can immediately treat the area, use RICE: rest, ice for the first 24 hours, compress gently with a bandage, and elevate the twisted area over the level of your heart. Applying ice reduces swelling and pain and limits any internal bleeding at the injury site. To use ice effectively, place it on the affected area in a thin towel for 20 minutes at a time. Apply heat to an injury after the first few days, when the inflammation has decreased and increasing blood flow to the area can provide healing nutrients. Your primary care doctor can help evaluate the injury. Apply a cold steak to a black eye. Keep the steak for dinner and bring out that bag of frozen vegetables instead. Your frozen steak may have bacteria on it, so covering your eye with it is not recommended. Instead of steak apply a crushed ice pack or the frozen vegetable package to the affected area for 10 minutes at a time. If the eyeball itself is damaged or if the vision is affected, see your doctor. Clean a cut or scrape with hydrogen peroxide. Using hydrogen peroxide to clean an injury can actually harm the tissue and delay healing. The best way to treat a minor cut or scrape is to cool and clean it with cool water, rinsing thoroughly to remove dirt, debris, and bacteria. Protect the injury with a bandage and see your doctor for a wound that is large, deep, or bleeding nonstop. ¢

The Science of Surfing
CSUSM STUDENTS AND FACULTY STUDY THE PHYSIOLOGICAL IMPACT OF SURFING
A
t Cal State San Marcos’s College of Education, Health & Human Services (CEHHS), surfing is more than a recreational sport. Students and teachers in the Kinesiology department are studying the science of surfing. “Kinesiology is one of our fastest growing majors,” explained Marilyn Huerta, Public Affairs Communication Specialist. “Our students have the opportunity to research a recreational sport like surfing and exhibit how it benefits our physical and psychological health.” The program is taught by Jeff Nessler and Sean Newcomer, and the study aims to determine the physiological benefit of surfing for the average recreational surfer. Previous studies have focused on competitive professional surfers. Students can get involved in the project by taking Introductory Exercise Physiology 326. The study includes research participants who surf while wearing waterproof heart rate monitors connected to a video camera that films them while out in the water. Research continues in an on-campus pool. “Situated within the action sports capital of the world, Cal State San Marcos provides the ideal environment for research and development with industry partners,” said Dean Janet Powell. “As dean, my goal is to support the development of the nation’s first action sports
research center to serve the unique needs of our region by conducting high-quality research in our laboratories and training students to be leaders and innovators in their field.” In addition to Kinesiology, CEHHS also covers Education, Human Development, Nursing, Social Work, and Speech-Language Pathology. The programs all focus on the intersection of science, education, and communities. Learn more at www.csusm.edu/cehhs. ¢

TIPS FOR P E V
R SKIN TH OU
Know Your Sunscreen Apply sunscreen to your face, ears, neck, arms, and any other areas not covered by clothing, and don’t forget to reapply throughout the day – a good rule of use is one ounce every two hours. Be sure to read the label before you pick one out. Broad spectrum sunscreens – those that protect against both UVA and UVB rays – with a SPF of at least 30 are a good place to start, though higher SPFs provide more protection for longer. Always follow directions on the label and check for expiration dates. Most

sunscreens are good for up to two to three years.
2
Wear Proper Clothing Clothing can provide different levels of sun protection, depending on the fabric, color, and of course, how much skin is being covered. Dark colored, long-sleeved shirts and pants are the most protective, and tightly-woven fabrics are best. If you hold the clothing up and can see light through the fabric, you’re still getting some UV exposure.

ith the arrival of the official season of beach days and backyard barbeques, it’s likely that you’ll be spending a lot more time outside for the next few months. While you’re putting on your swimsuit or bringing out the coolers and lawn chairs, it can be easy to forget to take the necessary steps to avoid the harmful effects of the ultraviolet (UV) rays of the sun, which is why we’ve put together a few simple tips on how to safeguard yourself and your family this summer.
3
Head for the Shade Avoiding too much direct sunlight is simple but important, especially during the hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. when UV light is strongest. UV rays can reach below the water’s surface, so you can still get a burn while relaxing in the pool – and don’t forget that sun protection is necessary even on cloudy days. Protect Your Eyes, Too! Wearing a hat and sunglasses can help protect your vision, as well as cover up sensitive areas
4
that are difficult to protect with sunscreen, such as the scalp, ears, or delicate skin around the eyes. Choose a widebrimmed hat with at least two to three inches of tightly-woven fabric all the way around and a dark, non-reflective underside. Large-framed or wraparound style sunglasses are best for covering your eyes from light coming in from different angles. Before you buy check for labels that say “UV 400 protection” or “Meets ANSI UV Requirements” as these indicate that the sunglasses will block 99-percent of UV rays.
5
Use the UV Index Before you head out for a day in the sun, check the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) website for the UV Index. The index represents the intensity of the UV rays of the sun on a scale of one to 11 to help you decide how much UV protection you’ll need for your outdoor adventure. The National Weather Service calculates the UV Index forecast daily and the EPA publishes the information, along with other recommendations for sun protection and planning sun-safe outdoor activities at www2.epa.gov/sunwise.

echnology today is amazing. We can find out almost anything by just searching the internet. We can see what someone paid for their home, what their neighbor paid for their home, what the inside of homes look like that are for sale, and even what homes may be in a preforeclosure situation. But what websites are accurate? We will tell you our advice! When we have a buyer looking for a home we always get all the information that we can from our buyer and we set up a search directly out of the Sandicor MLS. This gives us and the client the most accurate information. Sometimes clients decide that they would like to tweak the search to see if they may be missing something. That is when we usually get a call that they have seen something on another website that was not included on their search. Nine times out of 10 the listing that they found is either already pending or already sold. These websites are not always accurate. That is why we always advise our clients to call us directly so we can search the MLS for what they are looking for. If you would like a recommendation of a website we feel Realtor.com has the most accurate information. This website feeds directly from our Sandicor MLS and is updated several times a day to provide the
most accurate information. Although Zillow may have cool features like “Zestimates” and Truilia has an estimate, the estimates usually don’t take into account extensive upgrading inside and outside.
