RSFA board candidates make their cases By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — At the Rancho Santa Fe Association’s annual meeting on May 12, members of the Covenant heard a total of six candidate presentations, which were clocked at three minutes each. While the ballots were already sent to members, the presentations afforded those in attendance with the opportunity to learn both the accomplishments and intent of the candidates. Three seats on the Rancho Santa Fe Association (RSFA) board are available and the outgoing directors are Heather Slosar, Philip Wilkinson, and Jerry Yahr. Member votes must be received no later than June 13 at 5 p.m. The order of the candidate speakers consisted of Rachel Leheny, Kenneth Markstein, Terry Peay, Allen

Finkelson, Rachel Laffer and Janet Danola. Leheny, with a professional background in biotechnology, has lived in Rancho Santa Fe with her family for the last 13 years. “I’ve been involved with the community mostly for my kids and their schools. Now with my kids almost grown, I’d like to get involved from a more adult perspective, and that’s why I’m running for the board,” she said. Leheny told members that she co-founded and led a biotech venture fund. “I was also a founding board member of a San Diego nonprofit called Clearity Foundation that helps cancer patients get personalized treatment for their cancer,” she said. Leheny went on to say that she thought that her business experience,

combined with her love for the history and beauty of the Ranch, would be an additive to the RSFA board of directors. She also pointed out that she had the pleasure to run with two extremely talented and independently-minded candidates who in Laffer and Peay. “We are in complete agreement on our support of the current board, and we’re committed to continuing to the immense progress that the board has made in the past several years,” she said, adding that the cornerstone of their position was transparency and inclusiveness. Next up was candidate Markstein, who has lived in the Ranch with his family for 29 years. He told his fellow members that he believed that listening skills, honesty, trust, the ability to build a community consenTURN TO CANDIDATES ON 20

LaDonna Monsees receives community service award By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — At the Rancho Santa Fe Association annual meeting this month, President Ann Boon recognized Covenant member LaDonna Monsees for her extraordinary commitment of time and energy for the welfare of the community. Monsees, who is the chair of the Village Revitalization Task Force, was the recipient of the Community Service Award. Following the closure of Stumps market last year, Boon said, many members were distraught. Monsees responded in her own special way. “This woman stepped up and took the helm of a new ad

hoc committee to try and find a remedy,” Boon said. And that committee was the Village Revitalization Task Force. The committee has addressed various items, including retail parking in

the Village since many business owners face the daily challenges of limited spots near their storefronts. The committee is trying to find alternative solutions for employees to park elsewhere

rather than potential customer parking spaces. Freeing up these spaces will help the revitalization efforts. Boon shared that over a nine month time frame, this committee struggled with important issues in the Village pertaining to parking, permits, and county ordinances. Boon wanted members to know that Monsees has had excellent assistance from dedicated Ranch residents to help address these ongoing challenges. “Thanks to her efforts the committee and staff is developing a strong and detailed plan going forward in revitalizing of the Village,” Boon said.

RANCHO SANTA FE — The Rancho Santa Fe School District reached out to the San Diego County Office of Education after parents Amanda and Ali Shapouri presented the district with a lab report, which questioned the safety and health concerns of artificial turf at the school campus. The San Diego County Office of Education brought on Ninyo & Moore, a professional geotechnical and environmental sciences consulting firm. The company cited how it performed its own evaluation of synthetic turf located at the R. Roger Rowe Middle School athletic field and also assessed its review of two prior sampling results. Stephen Waide, principal environmental scientist at Ninyo & Moore, provided a step-by-step process on how they arrived at their own conclusion at the May 12 meeting. “At this time, I don’t think there’s any reason to believe that you have a health hazard,” said Waide, addressing the school board. While there were levels of lead detected primarily on the yellow striping areas of the field, the levels were considered on the lower spectrum. Waide utilized “wipe standards” and compared them with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) criteria for existence of lead in residences. These are considered one of the strictest standards. Waide said there is a huge amount of data on lead exposure and what is considered potentially harmful. To date there is no standard for outdoor playing fields. So, what Ninyo & Moore did was take the most restrictive standard they could find which was floors in residences. They decided on this standard given the fact that babies crawl in

homes and naturally place items in their mouths. According to HUD, the standard for passing a lead wipe test is 40 micrograms per square foot and under. When testing the yellow striping on the artificial turf at the R. Roger Rowe athletic field, those numbers calculat-

ed to 8.5 micrograms per square foot. “That’s just about five times less than this really restrictive (HUD) number,” Waide said. “And HUD believes that this level (40) would be fine to send a family back in after our remediation.” In the future, the artificial turf may get more than an 8.5 micrograms reading. Waide’s recommendation was to watch the field for any signs of distress or color fading. He suggested sampling artificial turf swatches, particularly the yellow and blue striping areas and storing them in a box in a dark area. “And once a year, I’d bring them out and put them right next to the representative color on the field and I’d take a picture of them. Then you’d have a year-by-year picture of how much this thing is degrading or fading and then you make some decision down the road when you want to look at this again.” And the retesting could range from five to TURN TO TURF ON 20

This year’s fair wants to take you through the looking glass By Tony Cagala

DEL MAR — The San Diego County Fair has become the largest in the state and last year they saw more than 1.5 million people take in the live music, rides and, of course, the fried foods. Fairgrounds General Manager Tim Fennell, speaking to the media last week, said he expects to break attendance records when this year’s fair wraps up after its 26-day run. “What makes our fair so special…the largest fair in the state of California is the fact that every year we have a new theme,” said Linda Zweig, media relations representative for the fairgrounds. Fair organizers came up with the idea this year to infuse the popularity of Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland” characters with steampunk, the burgeoning trend that infuses Victorian-era culture with futuristic technology. “Every year, the theme infiltrates the entire fairgrounds,” Zweig added. “We have a theme exhibit that has new things to feature.” One of the exhibits at the fair this year will feature one of the first published editions of Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” on loan from the University of Southern California. Still fairground’s officials say they aren’t too worried about outgrowing their venue even as the event grows ever more popular

What’s all the for-benefit buzz? By Jane Naseem

Loud talk, but California primary again insignificant California Focus By Thomas D. Elias

here’s nothing like a nice fantasy to keep a person feeling warm at night, and a fantasy is what comforts Vermont’s Independent Sen. Bernard Sanders this month, as he insists it will make a big difference if he somehow ekes out a June 7 California primary win over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. But reality is that California win or not, Sanders has no chance for the Democratic presidential nomination, chiefly because of a party rule demanding proportional distribution of any state’s delegates to its nominating convention. Sanders says he’s “good at math,” and if so, he knows that even though he narrowly won Indiana and even if he takes 60 percent of the California vote (highly unlikely, say all the polls), Clinton’s effort here will still net more than the 150odd delegates she still needs to clinch the nomination. For a while, it appeared there would be meaningful, fiery action here on the Republican side, where California has a mere 172 convention delegates, compared with the 546 going to the Democratic gathering. It only takes 1,237 GOP delegates to get nominated, while a Democrat needs 2,383. This could have made California far more important to the GOP. But then came Indiana and a clear-cut Donald Trump win that all but clinched the GOP nomination for him and forced his last remaining serious rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, to drop out. There will still be plenty of rallies and loud talk in California, but not nearly as much emotion or spending as the state would have seen if Indiana had gone for Cruz and given him all 57 of its

Republican delegates. In that case, it wouldn’t matter that no one in either party seriously believes any Republican can win this state’s 55 electoral votes in November. That’s about one-fifth what it takes to get elected, just from one state, something that long gave a political foundation to Ronald Reagan, who never lost an election in California — before it became solidly Democratic. Another result of the Cruz dropout is that Reagan can now stop spinning in his hilltop grave above Simi Valley where he may some-

during just one rant. So much for the 11th Commandment. This all set up the most entertaining state convention in many years for beleaguered California Republicans, who have won no statewide elections in 10 years and finally got to see their first full-fledged “cattle call” in more than 20 years, as all national candidates remaining at the time made the scene. Cruz somehow hoped naming failed California Senate candidate Carly Fiorina (a million-vote loser to Barbara Boxer in 2010) as his vice presidential choice

For a while, it appeared there would be meaningful, fiery action here on the Republican side... how have heard one Republican after another violate his “11th Commandment:” Thou shalt not speak ill of another Republican. Intramural insults became major sport among Republicans as they began some preliminary stumping in the Golden State before Cruz departed. There was former House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio opining at Stanford University that Cruz is “Lucifer in the flesh,” and a “miserable son of a b---h.” That amplified a bit on Trump’s seemingly constant hurling of the epithet “lyin’ Ted” at Cruz and his remark that Cruz “is a nasty guy and people don’t like him.” Cruz, son of a pastor, had jabbed back more subtly, claiming, “I have never insulted Donald personally.” But he became more direct on his campaign’s last day, calling Trump a “serial philanderer” and a “pathological liar” and more, all

could help him enough here to force a multi-ballot national convention. Anyone who remembers Fiorina’s hapless campaign had to chuckle over that. The bottom line: California’s primary is no longer even symbolically important, not even for Democrats who still say otherwise. It’s even less vital for the GOP. Which means that the political tail has wagged the dog once again, the decisive state this time being Indiana, with less than onethird the political convention delegates California has. It also means it’s high time for state legislators to make a permanent date change and give up on their 44-year-old fantasy that a June presidential primary will ever again mean much.

Encinitas has been selected to participate in a national mapping assessment of the for-benefit economy. This puts Encinitas at the forefront of the for-benefit movement, where the purpose of business is social, environmental, and economic benefit for all. In Encinitas and beyond, expectations that businesses be good citizens continue to rise. According to a study by Nielsen, 66 percent of global consumers will pay more to support companies committed to making a social and environmental impact. Encinitas has long-valued good neighbor businesses. Seaside Market in Cardiff is a treasured local institution with a track record of community and environmental benefit.

Orchard project at the Inn reviewed and approved By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — Covenant members gathered at the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club for its Annual Meeting. At the May 12 event, Rancho Santa Fe Association Board President Ann Boon delivered her remarks which punctuated progress while demystifying myths. Traditionally, Boon said that this part of the meeting was for the president of the Association to review the accomplishments and events of the year. While she couldn’t delve into each one, she did describe the year as “remarkable” in terms of board and community engagement. Many of the projects taken on by board and staff, she said, included community input. Member reactions that followed consisted of both a blend of positive and negative feedback. “Community interest has often risen to the level of passion in support of certain outcomes. Yet on almost every issue, we are finding common ground and are making significant progress,” Boon said. “We all have a tremendous financial investment in our home values and the quality of our lives in this beautiful place we call home.” Boon described the contributions made by staff members as tremendous. And this included new staff members at the Association. “Each and every one of them, old and new, has learned quickly, assumed additional responsibilities as needed and support of each other as we as an organization obtained an astonishing set of challenges,” she said. The list of roster accomplishments, Boon pointed out, were a new full accrual accounting system and three part financial statement; new website and member communication outreach; the recent letter of intent with

Communication for a community-owned fiber-to-the-home network to every residence in the Covenant; trail management; and, addressing the situation of stressed and dying trees in the Ranch. Boon also touched upon water conservation. “This community reduced its water consumption more than any other in the entire state,” she said. “And this was all done while bringing all of our systems, filing, reporting, processes, technology, and interior infrastructure into the modern age. Together we’ve built a professional business and service organization that is now fully able to support the Rancho Santa Fe members, their families, and the needs of the community in the 21st century.” Next, Boon addressed rumors being peppered throughout the Ranch. While rumors of the Covenant Club sometimes emerge, so do ones about board members that do not reside in the Covenant. “And periodically very creative rumors pop up, spreading unfounded fears of one conspiracy theory or another,” she said. The most recent rumor, however, had to do with the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. “Now, there’s a rumor that the Association board is plotting to take over the Golf Club,” said Boon, adding how it was utterly false. “I will personally and unequivocally say that any attempt for the board to the take over or even micromanage the Golf Club is not only just a rumor, it’s a terrible idea.” Boon said that the last thing the Association would ever want is removing the autonomy of the Golf Club. Despite any differences which may arise, Boon said that be it members who have lived in Covenant for 50 years or 50 days, all treasure the ambience and rural character of the Ranch.

RANCHO SANTA FE — At the last Rancho Santa Fe Association’s board of directors meeting, their director of planning, Tom Farrar, underscored two items regarding JMI Realty’s proposed plans for The Orchard development. The project location is at The Inn of Rancho Santa Fe and what was addressed was approving a subdivision for condominiums and a boundary adjustment. And it was approved unanimously. According to Farrar, there were two applications. While one application adjusted property lines, the subdivision application was really to consolidate four existing lots into one. In terms of property lines, Farrar described it as a process, which moved lines that were “bisecting several buildings.” If approved, this would also bring the property site into regulation for code conformance, he said. Adjacent to Steven Royce Boulevard which is located west of The Inn, JMI has proposed the following changes to its 13 existing units: demolish two and build five new units. A

net gain of five units will be achieved. For this project, JMI turned to Pasco Laret Suiter and Associates for its expertise in civil engineering, land surveying, and land planning. Representing Pasco Laret Suiter and Associates was its president, Justin Suiter. “JMI approached us to look at this property and we were very excited to be a part of this,” said Suiter, adding how their firm has worked in the Covenant for the past 40 years. And it has taken part in about 150 or more projects in the Ranch. He went on to say

how their firm respects and understands the Covenant. Suiter then reviewed a timeline. “We had identified three areas with JMI where future development might be possible,” he said. Known as The Residences at The Inn, they comprised of The Orchard, The Grove, and La Gracia Village. Next, they went out to the public, Suiter said, to get input on the three potential projects. The team also met with staff, went to a Covenant Design Review Committee workshop, held a community meeting, and more. “As part of that, we re-

ceived significant input from the community on The Grove and La Gracia. When you really look at those projects, it is really bigger than just the project,” he said. A philosophical question he said comes into play as to what does the community want to build and how much do they want to densify the Village? Suiter said that after the input, they realized that The Grove and La Gracia were more complicated and also required Covenant modifications. So rather than addressing those two projects, The Orchard became the primary focus placing the others on the backburner. Suiter pointed out that he thought their process in engaging the community and receiving feedback worked perfectly. “From an aesthetic standpoint, the subdivision that we are talking about today, there is very little change from the way the community experiences it right now,” he said. “What we propose to do is consolidate those four parcels into one parcel and create 16 individual condominium units. That is the technical side of things.”

RSF School District board votes Kahn in to fill vacancy By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — On May 16, Rancho Santa Fe School District Superintendent Lindy Delaney issued a letter to parents announcing that Richard Burdge, a longstanding board member for the school district, had resigned. In her letter, Delaney wrote, “During Richard’s years on the Board, he played an instrumental role in maintaining the highest standards possible for the education of our students. Among his many contributions, he was involved in the successful passage of bond measures, renovation of the current site, obtaining $8.2 million from the State of California for modernization and new construction, acquisition of property adjacent to the Rowe Campus, the refunding of the 2004 and 2008 GO Bonds, and helping the District maintain a strong fiscal position through one of the most challenging times this District has ever encountered.” While Delaney wished Burdge and his family the very best, since Burdge’s seat had been vacated between elections, the RSF school district called for a special meeting on May 17 to discuss the issue. It was unanimously decided that qualified applicants should submit their interest for the board seat by May 19, followed by “Open Session” interviews at a special board meeting on May 20. Interested candidates included Chris Blatt, Kyle Jones, Scott Kahn, Kyri Van Hoose and Brian Vincik. Following open session interviews on May 20, Scott Kahn was chosen to fill the vacancy by board president Tyler

Seltzer, clerk Marti Ritto and board member Todd Buchner. Vice President Todd Frank abstained. Shortly thereafter, Superintendent Lindy Delaney swore Kahn into his new role. In the interview, Kahn said serving the school board was something he was thinking about since he retired and now had the extra time to do so. “A notion of serving the school board was quite attractive,” Kahn said. While the process was a bit more accelerated than what he had planned, Kahn said, it was very much aligned with where he wanted to go. During the interview, Kahn touched upon his brief background in education when serving as an assistant professor for a couple years in the field of chemistry. He believed that he brought a set of skills that were different than the current board members. Over the years, his career segued into science and technology and spent the

last 20 years in the corporate world of science. On the business side of things, Kahn mentioned his involvement in multiple levels of administration, managing performance, and collecting information and different perspectives in any decision making process. “I feel strongly that science and technology is one of the things that will propel the world forward and I would like our kids to be part of that activity,” he said, noting how his background could contribute to this. In terms of finding a new superintendent to replace Delaney in the months ahead, Kahn believed the individual needed to be a strong administrator but also have the ability to engage the community. “If we have a superintendent that is the best administrator in the entire world, but is not good at engaging the community, I don’t think they are going to be successful here,” Kahn said. He added, “That is such

an important element in a superintendent’s job.” Prior to the open session interviews, the school district’s attorney, Richard Currier, explained the process of filling a vacant seat on the school board at both the May 17 and May 20 meeting. “Getting a new board member is not hiring an employee. You don’t do it in a closed session,” he said on May 17. “The board then interviews them and the board engages in whatever discuss they want to and the board takes action to a point.” According to Currier, the general rule is that the board appoints someone when there is vacancy within sixty days because special elections are expensive. Since an election was coming up in November, avoiding a special election was the general practice. Kahn will be serving until November, and if he chooses to run for the next term, he can do so with any other interested candidates with the new term beginning in December.

Osuna Ranch readies for June event By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — The Osuna Ranch is expected to have a wave of visitors on the afternoon of June 11 for its Celebrate Osuna event. Those involved in the affair describe it as a day of fun and education where guests will have the opportunity to learn more about the history of the Osuna Ranch, circa 1830s. “We invite community members to tour the 180-year-old Adobe home and see the beautiful setting, which includes a working horse ranch. Celebrate Osuna will give members a glimpse into many bygone eras, in-

cluding the Kumeyaay era, the Mexican Rancho period, the Mexican American War period and the Railroad era,” said Arnold Keene, field operations manager at the Rancho Santa Fe Association. He continued, “The wildlife and plants at the Osuna Ranch are wonderful examples of the natural setting that has flourished in the area for hundreds of years.” A multitude of organizations are co-hosting this event including the Rancho Santa Fe Association Osuna Committee, Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society, Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club and the Rancho Santa Fe

Vibrancy Committee. Keene also wants residents to know that the festivities of the afternoon will include Mexican Rancho period live music, equestrian demonstrations, horseshoe matches, and crafts including adobe brick making and weaving. “Attendees are also invited to sample a Santa Maria Style BBQ and enjoy Mission-style beer and regional spirits,” he said. For those interested in attending the event, Celebrate Osuna will take place June 11, from 3 to 6 p.m. The Osuna Ranch is located at 16332 Via de Santa Fe in Rancho Santa Fe.

ees, in general, are your friends. If you see a bee, try to cut it some slack. It may look threatening to you, but bees have been going through a really rough patch for the last decade or so. I wanted to share the news that around my house, they seem to be thriving. We’ve had two swarms try to make a home on our home in the last month. Fortunately I am married to a semi-professional bee wrangler. The first bunch settled cleverly in our eaves, out of human reach. The neighbors were equal parts fascinated and amused as my husband built a seriously Rube Goldberg-style contraption made of yards and yards of PVC pipe taped together. It was long enough to reach into the heart of the hive. To the bottom end, he attached insecticide foggers. Simmer down now. We didn’t want to kill them

either, and we didn’t, as it turned out. Much like a noisy neighbor, if you just annoy the little critters enough, they will pack up and move away. A couple of cans of fogger and they disappeared without a trace. Not a bee corpse to be found anywhere. Two weeks later, a tarp, tossed on the ground for storage, suddenly began to move and hum. Under it was another swarm. For these, my hubby just lit a small, smoky fire in a can and shoved it alongside. Within the hour, the swarm had fled to find a friendlier ZIP code. We rather think that local bees are making a comeback, with two healthy swarms looking for somewhere to park. I did my best to steer them eastward to find semi-wide open spaces to call home. I hope they were listening, but I did, recently, have to guide one back outside that flew into my office. I kept reminding him he has a rather critical pollination job to do. The last thing we need is to have him hanging around the water cooler. Jean Gillette is a freelance writer whose idea of a good buzz does not involve Apis mellifera.

Rancho Santa Fe Library hosts lecture on Alzheimer’s To all the weekend warriors, I salute you By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — In an effort to raise awareness, Alzheimer’s San Diego recently visited the Rancho Santa Fe Library to help those touched by the disease learn some valuable information. Leading the presentation was Amy Abrams, MSW, who serves as the education and outreach manager at Alzheimer’s San Diego. During the presentation, Abrams touched upon the symptoms of the disease as well as its progression. The lecture was helpful for caregivers and family members who have loved ones that have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Abrams pointed out effective communication techniques for caregivers when their loved one is losing their language or other forms of communication. Another level of the discussion focused on the most common triggers for behaviors changes. And adapting to that changing environment was part of the discussion in terms of how to respond to agitation, confusion, frustration and disorientation. When it comes to challenging behavior, Abrams said, there is an importance in recognizing the emotion behind what the person is trying to communicate. “When a person is confused and disoriented,

what we need to do in that moment with them is connect to the emotion that they’re expressing to us,” she said. “First acknowledge it and then redirect it to something more productive or a more soothing behavior.” Alzheimer’s San Diego has partnered with the Rancho Santa Fe Library as well as the Rancho Santa Fe Senior Center in bringing knowledge and helpful strategies to caregivers and family members. Their message is clear in that caregivers have access to support though all stages of the disease. According to Abrams, she happily sees familiar faces attending the lectures as well as new ones who are aware of their organization. The locale of their presentations is also highly convenient to those living in the Ranch or nearby communities. Abrams said the goal

of Alzheimer’s San Diego is to bring help through education and teaching various aspects about the disease. And that includes knowing how to lower one’s risks and understanding the signs and symptoms of the disease. The organization offers an array of resources and information as well as support for the caregiver. “Getting information out all over San Diego County is the real mission,” Abrams said. “We’re based in Kearny Mesa and I know that getting to our office in Kearny Mesa is just not workable for everyone.” Understanding the needs of caregivers, including their busy schedules, Alzheimer’s San Diego does its best to bring support and information to those who live in the county. “We have a small staff to cover San Diego and get the education out where we

can so we really appreciate the library’s partnership,” she said. “We are a local, independent organization.” To learn more about Alzheimer’s San Diego, Abrams invites those interested to visit alzsd.org or call (858) 492-4400. Alzheimer’s San Diego also offers a complimentary consultation with an expert who understands the disease.

ow do you spend your weekends in North Coun-

Since I moved to Carlsbad, I’ve grown to love a well-spent weekend. By that, I mean that I’m productive in meeting a range of personal goals and immediate needs around the house. My neighbors seem to relish in the same satis-

faction. Landscaping. House cleaning. Fixing things. Exercising. Running errands. Side projects. All in all, maybe putting in a solid 10 hours each day to getting stuff done. I know that a lot of folks, including my friends, savor sleeping in, slowly sipping a cup of coffee, or having nothing planned on their days off from work. Some people have really tough jobs and schedules, and need time to recharge their batteries. I get that. But I’ve always felt that there’s so much that can be done with each day, you will miss out if you don’t take a TURN TO NORTHBOUND ON 20

Train where you want: concierge personal trainer makes house calls By Hanna Laukkanen

“I can see that you have more strength left,” says Rachael Stoltz, personal trainer. “Six more!” Stoltz is training with me in my gym, which is the place I wanted to work out. The training is very efficient, and I truly can feel the fat burning. Stoltz explains that building lean muscle will burn fat and increase my strength. Meanwhile, Stoltz’s business idea is founded in availability — to come where her customer wants to work out. “When I come to wherever they want to, they don’t have any excuse left not to train. In many cases, people don’t have time to work out or they can’t drive to the gym,” Stoltz says. She helps older people train in their homes. Seniors want to maintain their ability to move and do regular stuff like go to the grocery store or walk their dogs. Some of them want to exercise in a safe environment, maintain their bal- Personal trainer Rachael Stoltz offers personal training wherever the customers want to work out: at home, at parks, at the office, at beach, at gym.

Young diver earns top ranking RANCHO SANTA FE — Rancho Santa Fe resident, Tennessee Cumming, who just turned 12 years old, is now the world’s youngest Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI) Junior Master Scuba Diver. He attends The Winston School in Del Mar, and classmates and staff held a “pep rally” to celebrate his accomplishment. Cumming fell in love with the sport at the age of 8, and from there has taken extensive courses, earned certifications and performed tests to achieve this title. Exploring the depths of the ocean may be a challenge and even scary for some to handle, but for Tennessee, also known as “T,” who was diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, oppositional defiance disorder, pervasive developmental disorder, as well as a processing disorder, diving has become his “island of competence.” Cumming achieved this milestone in Fiji on May 17, at 8:35 a.m. local time at the Korolevu dive site, a part of Rainbow Reef in Tavenui, Fiji. PADI is the world’s leading scuba diver training

organization and his new rating as a Junior Master Scuba Diver is recognized as the pinnacle of recreational diving achievement before the age of 15. His first diving experience began through a Bubblemaker program, an introductory program to diving that took place during a family trip when he was only eight and a half years old in Bora Bora. After completing several dives that day, each time he finished he would say it was “the best day of my life!” According to Cumming’s parents, they had never heard him say anything like that before. Other than building Legos and playing with his brother there was nothing else he seemed to enjoy. For T, diving isn’t just about collecting and completing certification cards. He is dedicated and passionate to become the best diver he can be and according to his Dive Nanny, Elizabeth “Bethy” Driscoll, he has repeated courses because “they were fun.” Driscoll, his “dive nanny,” has been instrumental in his diving achievements and has provided him the support and guidance.

Learning about the man who fought for the ideals of freedom and democracy hit the road

The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum in Springfield, Ill., opened in 2005. As of 2012, 3 million people had visited. According to museum officials, Steven Spielberg’s 2012 film “Lincoln” caused a surge in visits. The museum’s 40,000 square feet contain life-size dioramas of Lincoln’s life, original documents, artifacts used by the president and his family, period clothing and theaters that feature holographic presentations.

here it is: President Abraham Lincoln’s top hat, basking in the low, protective light of the museum in Springfield, Illinois, that bears his name. It’s one of three existing stovepipe hats worn by Honest Abe, who stood 6 feet 4 inches tall in his stocking feet. It is said that when Lincoln donned this hat and his boots, he stood at nearly 7 feet — just one reason why he was a larger-than-life figure of his time and for the ages. I try to imagine what he must have looked like among other men of the mid1800s who averaged 5 feet 8 inches. Because my husband, Jerry, shares a birthday (Feb. 12) with our 16th president, Springfield and All Things Lincoln had been on his Bucket List for some time. On a recent trip to central Illinois, we put aside two days to see as many Lincoln-related sites as time would allow. We start at his tomb in the peaceful, tree-laden Oak Ridge Cemetery where Lincoln was placed permanently to thwart another attempt at stealing his body. The stunning granite monument is laden with architectural symbolism and bronze statuary depicting Lincoln at

On the day President Abraham Lincoln died, some Springfield, Ill., citizens formed an association to raise funds to construct a fitting monument to the 16th president. This tomb, in Oak Ridge Cemetery, holds the remains of Lincoln, his wife, Mary Todd, and their three younger sons. In 1887, the bodies of Abe and Mary were reburied in a brick vault beneath the floor of the burial room to prevent another robbery attempt. Photos

various times in his life and career. The tomb also is the resting place of wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, and three of their four sons, all of whom died in their childhood or teen years. The eldest and only surviving son, Robert, is buried in Arlington National Cemetery. (There are no direct living descendants of Lincoln; the line stopped with his great-grandson, Abraham Lincoln II.) I try to imagine how Mary must have suffered with the loss of her three sons and the murder of her husband as he sat next to her. Our next stop: Lincoln Home National Historic Site, where the family lived from 1844 until he left for the White House in February 1861. The house, with its period furniture, artifacts and Lincoln possessions, provides a peek at the president as a successful lawyer and family man. Lincoln was known to be a lax disciplinarian; luckily, Mary was of

Rosie, our ranger/guide, tells us to hold the bannister as we climb the stairs to the second floor, “in effect, touching Lincoln’s hands. He used this very bannister countless times as he ascended and descended the stairway.” After Lincoln’s death on April 15, 1865, the home was rented. When son Robert caught a tenant charging visitors to see the house, he gave it to the State of Illinois, declaring that no one should ever pay again to see it. (He didn’t, however, mention anything about parking, which costs $2 an hour.) The surrounding neighborhood, also managed by the National Park Service, has been restored to its 1860s appearance, and on this spring day, I try to imagine Lincoln walking these

streets, on his way to the Lincoln-Herndon Law Office (temporarily closed for renovation) or to a nearby church where his family had a pew. The following morning, we are standing in the grandiose rotunda of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum in Springfield’s historic downtown. An impressive 40,000 square feet, the museum has galleries, theaters (one features a fas-

cinating holographic presentation), exhibits (permanent and rotating) and displays. There are plenty of wax figures throughout depicting Lincoln at various stages in his life, as well as key people in his life — his wife and family, Stephen Douglas, the Cabinet, John Wilkes Booth and several others who played prominent roles in our country’s history. After Lincoln’s mother died, his father remarried and had four more children. Abe loved his stepmother, who encouraged him to read and study. I try to imagine living, eating, studying and sleeping with six other family members in their oneroom log cabin recreated just off the museum’s rotunda. We eventually enter the section of the museum that carries our attention to the Civil War and the people and politics who gave birth to the conflict. I try to imagine the acrimony between

pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions, the burdens and tragedies Lincoln endured during the Civil War, his assassination and, finally, his funeral. Today’s political divide is deep, but I try to imagine the chasm that existed in 1861 when Lincoln took office — not exactly with a majority mandate to govern. (The national vote was split among four candidates in the election of 1860.) I try to imagine the vitriolic feelings between those who thought it was morally acceptable to own another human being and those who didn’t. I try to imagine how these passions were so great that Americans were willing to kill each other over their differences. I try to imagine all this, but I can’t.

bout five years ago, old world Italian wines and cuisine came to Rancho Santa Fe with the romantic name (for Italian sweet bread and wine), Dolce Pane Y Vino.Â Success was immediate â&#x20AC;&#x201D; so fast forward to 2016 and the newest Dolce at the Highlands has come to Carmel Valley in the new Pacific Highlands Center. Like its parent restaurant in the Ranch, the new and vivacious Dolce treats its guests with an expansive dining room, and a bar that seems endless from the front door to the kitchen.Â It has both community tables and tables for two or four, with views of very large and comprehensive wine racks, created by the general manager for both locations, Steve Flowers. The wait help on my visit was Gwen Blome, who was quick to point out her favorite wines.Â She was particularly excited by the showcase champagne chosen for the meal, the Nicolas Feuillatte Brut NV from France.Â The shimmering gold bubbly has an enticing fruity nose showing savory texture and refined bubbles.Â This is lively dry champagne for appetizers, or a long happy party ($34). Other wine menu whites worth noting were the B Cellars White Blend 2012 and the Arneis â&#x20AC;&#x153;Barola Biancaâ&#x20AC;? white from Piemonte, Italy.

scoop to enjoy after dinner.Â So for your dine-in or carry out Mexican food, El Torito should definitely be added to your list of options. My favorite part of the El Torito experience is to plan a Mexican themed

meal and buy all the ingredients there. Something about hitting up an authentic local market that is not impeccably merchandised and full of trendy new age products is very refreshing. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a good sign when a good proportion of the customers are Mexican. I

always start at the meat counter that has a nice variety of meat and chicken, including the delicious pre-marinated adobo pork that fries up quickly and can be put in just about any bread or tortilla product for a quick, delicious meal Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also ordered up a 5-pound pork shoulder that I cubed, seared, and then braised in my crock-pot for four hours in a combination of Mexican coke and orange juice.Â They become so tender and flavorful and can be easily shredded and the resulting carnitas were spectacular. All the standard cuts are available and many are already cut into sizes that are ready to add your favorite spices to and throw on the grill or sautĂŠ. And speaking of spices, El Torito has that covered and then some with many favorites and some of the more obscure varieties. Dried chilies and chili pods are represented nicely and there is even a modest fresh produce section. Â I also counted at least a dozen varieties of tortillas, including a couple that did include lard, a must-have ingredient in my tortillas.

s I was walking up to El Torito recently I noticed a fence around the old motel next door to it with a sign announcing a new boutique motel arriving later this year.Â And while it is a surfer themed motel and part of the evolution of the area, it freaked me out a bit that the gentrification is inching itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way towards one of my favorite old-school plazas on Coast Highway that includes El Torito Market and Swell Stuff. Both are independent, locally owned and full of character and worth supporting. Swell Stuff is always my first stop when wetsuit shopping for a potential killer deal on a used suit and my go-to for wetsuit repair. El Torito recently underwent a renovation that opened up the kitchen, expanded their menu, and now offers a sit down dining area. All this was done without taking away from the original charm and authenticity of the place. There is a heavy seafood influence on the new menu with fish platters that include seafood soup, cod, snapper, sea bass ahi and my favorite, shrimp a la cucaracha. Street tacos and burritos are also well represented and they also added Thrifty Ice Cream by the

The coolers at El Torito include prepared ceviche, salsas and plenty of Mexican dairy products. Beer and wine are available and really, what Mexican meal would be complete without cold cerveza right? And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not talking hoppy, crafty beer here; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m talking a crisp and refreshing lager with a lime. There is a time and place for crafty beer and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thinking this is not one of them. Mexican soda is available and we all know by now the Mexican Coke story. But did you know that Coke converted to high-fructose corn syrup for Mexico for cost reasons and is only exporting the cane sugar variety now due to the demand here? Crazy but true!

Art patrons look over the banner one last time before the live auction event begins.

ENCINITAS — The banners came down and the bids went up last weekend, marking the end of this year’s iteration of the annual Arts Alive Encinitas banner project. A live auctioning off of the banners is the traditional end of the event, which is put on by the 101 Artists’ Colony, the Leucadia 101 Main Street and Cardiff 101 Main Street Associations. The event, which has been a staple in the community for at least 16 years, also inspired a neighborhood in San Francisco to implement the same project in their neighborhood this year, with help from Danny Salzhandler, president of the 101 Artists’ Colony.

The first banner, “Life Outside the Shell,” by artist Diana Bartletti is displayed for the live auction.

CARLSBAD — There is no loss like the one a parent suffers when their child is taken away. Six years after Greg and Missy Post’s lives were upended, the two, along with friend John Cotter, are keeping the Post’s daughter’s memory alive. On June 4, they will host the second annual Amanda Post Track Meet at La Costa Canyon High School in Carlsbad. Registration ends May 28 for students in third through sixth grade. The cost is $5 and contributes to the cost of the event including first, second and third-place ribbons and other necessities for the meet. “John and I came up with the idea to have an elementary track meet run like a high school track meet,” said Greg Post, a 32year resident of Encinitas. “We are hoping to have an even bigger turnout.” Since their daughter’s death, Greg and Missy Post have kept her memory and passion for track alive with numerous fundraisers benefiting track scholarships for high school girls. Most universities have limited scholarships for track, which means the schools cut up the scholarships to assist more athletes. So, the Post’s, Cotter and others created the Amanda Post Foundation to help with covering tuition. To date, 40 young women have received the scholarships, which doles out $1,500 for four years. The scholarships are funded through a golf tournament and other fundraisers organized by the foun-

dation. Post and Cotter, meanwhile, said a committee reviews the applications and those students must meet academic and athletic requirements to receive a scholarship. But the track meet is no fundraiser. Instead, Post and Cotter want to bring youngsters into the world of track. There are very few, if any, opportunities for kids to run track before middle or high school. Last year, they wrangled 135 students from schools in Encinitas to participate in the first meet. This year, however, they opened registration throughout North County. Cotter, who taught Amanda Post in third grade at Mission Estancia Elementary School, was able to get the Encinitas Union School District to help market the event, and has done the same with the Carlsbad Unified School District this year. Students in third through sixth grade are eligible to register through the foundation’s website (amandapostfoundation.com). The kids will compete in the 100, 400, 800, 1,600 (one mile) and 4x100 relay events. “We are not trying to raise big money or anything,” Cotter said. “Going forward, we may have to do something to generate funding so that we can do this sort of thing. If we could access all the north coast, we could draw 1,000 kids to this.” Amanda Post excelled not only on the track, but the in the classroom graduating from Cathedral CathTURN TO TRACK MEET ON 20

The 6-foot-4-inch forward averaged 21.9 points, 8.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game this season.

The nickname “Buddha” was given to him by fans. Boyd said he came close to giving up his dream of playing professional basketball, but believed in himself and pursued a series of opportunities that got him back into the game.

MiraCosta College Head Coach and Athletic Director Patrick Conahan was at a tournament game to scout Boyd’s teammate, when Boyd’s talent caught his eye. The coach talked with Boyd, and eventually convinced him to move to the area, from Killeen, Texas, and join the team. “He brings a lot to the team,” Conahan said. “He’s the leading scoring rebounder.

Odd Files By Chuck Shepherd People With Issues Ms. Pixee Fox reported in May that she was recovering nicely from cosmetic rib-removal surgery, performed by one of the few doctors in the world

who offers it (Dr. Barry Eppley of Carmel, Ind.). Though she has had more than a dozen beautifying procedures, she had trouble finding a surgeon who would agree to take out six free-floating ribs (ones not attached to the sternum). Born in Sweden, she gave up a career as a trained electrician to come to the United States

to pursue her goal of looking like a cartoon character — which she has surely achieved with her now-16inch waist. Leading Economic Indicators Triple Crown winner American Pharoah earned an estimated $8.6 million racing but, now retired, could earn as much as $35

Educational Opportunities Serving our students through scholarships It began with a free watercolor class at MiraCosta College. The way Carlsbad resident Bob Algeo remembers it, he and his wife, Elaine, felt a little guilty after she enrolled in a free watercolor class a few years ago and got so much out of it without having to pay anything. “We wanted to do something to thank the college and show our appreciation, so we made a little donation,” recalled Bob Algeo. “But it was the follow up that was absolutely amazing. It wasn’t just a ‘thank you’ note. They went above and beyond in letting us know how appreciative they were and how much it meant to them.” The Algeos are now major donors to the college, contributing regularly to the MiraCosta College Foundation and the MiraCosta College Theatre Spotlight Circle, a nonprofit supporting the MiraCosta College Theatre Department. On May 21, Algeo was a featured speaker at MiraCosta College’s Annual Scholarship Award Celebration, where hundreds of students received scholarships totaling more than $370,000. The awards are made possible by a growing community of donors contributing to the MiraCosta College Foundation. The foundation has seen its endowment balloon and the amount of con-

tributions, gifts and grants grow nearly five-fold from $294,164 in 2004 to more than $1.2 million last year. Ten years ago, some 350 people donated to the foundation. Today, that number has surpassed 3,300. “The key ingredients to our success are our dedicated community friends and alumni who embrace the role of the community college and generously invest in the success of students from all walks of life,” said Linda Fogerson, executive director of the MiraCosta College Foundation. Knox Williams is among the longtime contributors. “Community college changed my life,” said Williams, who migrated with his family to Central California from Oklahoma during the height of the Dust Bowl, attended what was then called a junior college in Bakersfield and then transferred to UCLA before setting out on a successful

business career. “It’s only right for me do what I can to help others get a college education. If I could have an impact on even one life, well, then it’s worth it.” Fogerson and others note that contributions, no matter the amount, have a profound impact in the area. One in three local high school graduates enroll at MiraCosta College. What’s more, research shows that 85 percent of MiraCosta College graduates stay in the region to build their careers and raise their families. “You cannot overstate the importance that MiraCosta College is playing in the local economy,” said David Nydegger, president and CEO of the Oceanside Chamber of Commerce. But even though MiraCosta College is among the most affordable options for a postsecondary education, a full-time student can spend anywhere from $2,500 to $3,000 or more annually on tuition, fees, books and supplies, depending on the number of units he or she takes. And with many of those students working full-time while raising a family, any financial assistance is appreciated. “We’ve gone to plays at the college and had actors come up to us and say ‘thank you,’” said Algeo. “That’s a pretty amazing experience.”

BUILDERS EARN GRASSROOTS AWARD San Diegans for Responsible Neighborhood Planning and Pardee Homes were honored by the San Diego Section of the American Planning Association with the Grassroots Initiative award recognizing their work in advancing development of Pacific Highlands Ranch. The award was bestowed at the 2016 San Diego APA Awards and highlighted the implementation of the Pacific Highlands Ranch Transportation and Public Facility Phasing Plan, which ensured that development of the community could move forward, supported by appropriate public facilities, amenities and infrastructure.

20 CANDIDATES CONTINUED FROM 1

sus were some of the qualities that people look for in a board member. “I think it’s safe to say that we all feel that we portray those qualities, all six of us,” he said, referring to the other candidates. “We all support fiber optics. We all support better cell service without 90 foot towers. We all want to work on alternate water systems.” And he added that they all want to maintain their rural heritage. Markstein believed that he stood out as a candidate by being the past president of the Covenant Design Review Committee (CDRC), the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club and more recently the Rancho Riding Club. He conveyed that it was his experience and proven leadership which made a difference. “I’m not the beholden to anyone,” Markstein said. “The only group I’m beholden to is the community.” Markstein told the members that if they want to learn more about the kind of person he was, he recommended that they meet with staff and other board members he has served with over the years. Peay said one of the primary reasons his family moved to the Ranch in 2011 was because of the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. “It was the crown jewel of the Ranch and we wanted to become members there,” he said. “We feel honored and blessed to be living in this community.” Having been in the real estate industry for more than 40 years, Peay also noted how for the last 28 of them he oversaw and operated a large diversified real estate development company based in Washington D.C. “I’ve built high rise office buildings, multi-family housing, retirement communities in Florida, hotels, restaurants, and I also built large residential golf course communities,” he said. Peay took part as HOA president of Augustine North, an expansive residential community with a recognized

have him.” Boyd scored about a third of the team’s overall points per game. He is also well liked by his teammates, whose average age is 20. Boyd said he looks younger than his age, and teammates were initially shocked when they found

T he R ancho S anta F e News championship golf course on site. He also served on several homeowner associations as well as being president on occasion. “One of my primary jobs was to educate incoming board members about their fiduciary obligations and responsibilities to serve the community,” he said. Peay went on to say that a board member’s primary job is to facilitate the community’s goals and objectives. Next in line was Finkelson who moved to Rancho Santa Fe full time with his wife in 2012 after he retired from his longstanding career in law in New York City. Finkelson noted that his professional background in representing boards for numerous corporations would be helpful to the RSFA board of directors. “I made my own decision to run. I was not selected by nor do I owe anyone anything,” he said, adding how he would represent the entire membership. “And the only reason I have decided to run is simple. My professional career has made me an expert in how boards should function.” Finkelson said he thought he could help the board become better at soliciting, listening, and making well-informed decisions as it has made countless missteps. “This election is not about the past as some have alleged. That is pure nonsense or should I say hogwash. This election is about the future,” he said. “Help is not going to come from the three ‘Ann Fans,’” he said. “Help is spelled Allen, Janet and Ken.” Laffer, a third generation RSF resident is raising her child, a fourth generation RSF resident. Laffer described her fond memories living in the Ranch remembering the times with her grandparents. “I enjoyed my childhood here. And I remember how the Village and the Ranch looked back then, and that’s very important,” she said. “I have a very strong respect for the history of this community. Laffer, a current board member of the RSF Community Center, noted that her strong communicative back-

ground comes from her writing and editorial expertise, as well as serving in senior executive roles with investment management companies overseas. Currently, she works with her family’s business. “I just want to say that whatever comes from this election, I have enjoyed meeting so many people that I would never come across in my everyday life or everyday activities,” she said. “I’m really proud to be your neighbor.” She called her fellow candidates as ones with incredibly diverse backgrounds. “And I think that’s what makes our community so special,” she said. “I’d like to think that I can bridge the gap between the past and the present, and move us toward the future.” Last to speak was Danola, who has lived in the Ranch with her husband since 2012. Her professional expertise is in accounting which she said could be a significant addition to the board. While the Association has made great strides in financial accounting, she said, they still have ways to go. “In the past year, I’ve probably been to more board meetings than anyone else including the board members,” she quipped. By doing this, she has been able to observe firsthand how the board operates and determined how it can be improved. “Like Allen and Ken, I am an independent candidate with my own thoughts,” she said. At first glance, Danola said, the six candidates may look like they are running on the same platform. But there were items that set them apart. She explained that her “three opponents” wanted to move on with business as usual. But Danola thought otherwise, highlighting the need to correct missteps and rekindle confidence in the board. “Homeowners don’t like surprises,” she said. Danola promoted more town hall meetings, surveys, community involvement and communication. Following the presentations, candidates took part in a question and answer series.

He added his age served as an advantage in the wisdom he could share with younger teammates, like the importance of taking care of your body and having a strong work ethic. Boyd said what he loves about basketball is the life lessons it reflects, from leaning on teammates to help you through tough times, to coming back to score.

He said he hopes kids are inspired by his story. “Dreams are possible as long as you believe in yourself, and put the work in,” Boyd said.

different approach to life. When I feel lazy or unmotivated to get out of bed and meet the challenges of each day, I’ve gotten into the habit of asking myself, “Will I regret not making the most of this day?” To answer is, un-variably, “Yes.” That’s usually enough to get me up and about. Other times, I have a playlist of motivational YouTube videos play in the background as I shave and shower in the morning. This is almost like a personal pep talk, in the way a professional athlete would use to reaffirm their focus and drive to excel. I really recommend it. Drag yourself out of bed, any way you can.

for the rest of the visitors and residents “with ears.” The motorcycles themselves, if they are fitted with legal mufflers, are not the rub. It’s that most of the motorcycles are retrofitted with “pipes” that do little to muffle noise. Some new bikes are immediately retrofitted by the dealers, after initial sale, but the invoices to retrofit, are separate sale items, to mask installing illegal mufflers. These weekend riders, love to hear themselves “peal-out” at every stoplight, the same stoplights near sidewalks, used by visiting pedestrians, simply there to enjoy our otherwise peaceful coastal towns. Why not, instead of deciding, that nothing can be done (Del Mar?), decide to test some ideas to tamp down the noise: Whether it be, to install an array of

She, Thomas, Natalie Nield, 17, and Delis traveled to Mammoth with trainer Nathan Adams, 39, for high altitude cross-country training camp to prepare for the upcoming college season. On their return home, their SUV rolled and was struck by another van of athletes and a cheerleading coach headed to Mammoth. Wendy Rice, 39, died along with Post, Nield and Adams. “It was horrible,” Post said. “That’s the worst club

you could ever belong to. No parent should ever lose a child. So, we decided to honor her that we would create a scholarship for female student athletes.” Post remembers his daughter as an electric kid who seamlessly fit in with any group. A strong, smart young woman, Amanda Post was also an accomplished track athlete becoming one of San Diego County’s top runners. “She won the CIF gold medals (first place) in the 800 and as the anchor of the 4x400 relay in 2010,” Post said.

with coconut husk or cork. Following Waide’s presentation, Ali Shapouri shared his views on what he heard. “It’s just incredible to me that we’re talking about the level of exposure (lead) to our kids versus clean, natural grass,” he said. He added, “I can’t understand why we’re even talking

about what is the level of toxicity and what is the level of exposure to our children. That is outrageous to me.” Amanda’s concerns stayed the same. “If you go to the CDC website, it will tell you there that no level is safe,” she said, referring to lead levels.

Sometimes our life goals can be daunting, and personal obstacles can leave us feeling overwhelmed. Don’t lose sight of what you want in this world. Chip away at those goals each day, including the weekends. To get what you want, there are no days off. Want to lose weight? Get up early and go to the gym. Haven’t finished that home improvement project that’s been lingering for months? Today’s the day to get it done. Rise and grind, North County. My weekends are spent multitasking and being efficient with the time I have. When I’m cleaning around the house, or gardening outside, I also listen to podcasts on my iPhone, to keep up with current events.

When I barbecue up food, I will make enough for a week’s worth of lunches. In my mind, this makes more opportunity for leisure in the evenings. Socializing and meeting friends is important, but that’s time better spent as a reward for meeting your obligations for the day. Of course, not all of my weekends are super productive, but every weekend starts with that goal. You need a positive attitude to create positive change in your life, and staying active is a big part of that. Are you a weekend warrior, too? If so, I salute you.

permanent decibel meters, coupled with radar and photo equipment, or to actually assign one traffic enforcement officer, on the corridor each weekend day and night. I have accused my own city of allowing their police patrol officer numbers to drop off on weekends in order to allow their officers to have weekends free from duty. I have not gotten a reply regarding this claim. Our collective resort cities, actually need more on-duty officers during weekends, because that’s when most crimes, bar fights and accidents occur. Laguna Beach once took the matter seriously a few years back, and assigned a no-nonsense officer to noise enforcement. That action, was welcomed by the community, but despised by the noise-spewing drivers and riders, who were on the hook for both court appearances and fines.

We would welcome having such officers assigned to traffic noise duty, on weekends, too. But, alas, constitutional rights are only subjective, I guess. Someone’s right to create noise, is OK, as long it does not break the eardrums of little children, or those of city councilmen — which is highly unlikely.

With second chance Platten primed and ready to fight Rachel Platten will perform at the San Diego County Fair June 8 By Alan Sculley

Rachel Platten was in rehearsals for her spring headlining tour when she called for a phone interview recently, and there was no mistaking the excitement she was feeling in seeing her live show come together. “We’re ready to bring the party and have a lot fun around the country,” Platten enthused. “We have this motto, my drummer (Craig Meyer) and I have been playing together for 10 years, and we always say to each other, even when we played to like 20 or 30 people at a time, we would always say, ‘The party’s on stage. If anyone else wants to join, awesome.’” It’s a safe bet that Platten and her band will have many more than 30 fans turning out for their shows this spring, considering she has notched two number one singles on “Billboard” magazine’s Adult Top 40 chart — “Fight Song” and now “Stand By You.” But there were years when Platten was strug- Rachel Platten performs June 8 at the San Diego County Fair in Del Mar.

gling, taking any gig she could get and seeing plenty of sparse crowds. In 2003, Platten, 34, moved to New York City to pursue music full-time. What followed were years of local gigs and a self-released, little-heard 2003 debut album, “Trust in

Me,” before she decided to make a second album, “Be Here.” That album gave Platten her first taste of mainstream success when the song, “1,000 Ships,” was released as a single and climbed to No. 24 on “Billboard’s” Adult Top 40 chart. Initially planning to self-release “Be Here” and book her own tour, Platten hired a publicist for the project. That’s when she got a break. “From that publicist — this happened in like several weeks — she heard the record and she goes ‘This is really good. Can I send it to the label I work with?’ — which was an indie label called Rock Ridge,” Platten explained. “They heard it and within a couple of days (they said) ‘we want to put this out.’” Shortly after that, a radio promoter heard “1,000 Ships,” felt the song had potential and soon the song was climbing the charts. But after the song stalled at No. 24, the momentum Platten was seeing was gone and she found herself trying to re-boot her career. Looking back Platten said two things kept her from capitalizing on the chart run of “1,000 Ships.” “Things were happening very quickly. I don’t know if I honestly appreciated or grasped what an opportunity it was at the time,” she said. “And the second part of it was I didn’t feel like I deserved it in some way. “It just fell away very quickly.

Sun smiles on Fiesta Del Sol By Alex Hansen

Coast News Intern SOLANA BEACH — Residents and tourists of San Diego could be found adjacent to Fletcher Cove Beach Park at the Fiesta Del Sol May 21 and May 22. The two-day festival has been coined as the “kickoff to summer,” Nichole Peterson, executive director of the Fiesta, said. Peterson said the “community looks forward to it and the event has grown every year.” Working with the Belly Up and the city of Solana Beach, the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce put on the Fiesta Del Sol for its 37th year. The focus of the Fiesta Del Sol is supporting local businesses, artists and musicians. “We work really hard to provide something for everyone,” Peterson said. The Fiesta is a way for “local businesses to get great exposure” giving the neighborhood a chance to support local shops and artists: “It’s a great way to keep the dollars in the community.” Monica Rincon from Forever Flowers has had a booth at Fiesta Del

Sol “for six years now.” Initially, Rincon discovered the event through a friend and fellow festival vendor. “Ever since he told me about the event, I’ve been here every year.” Rincon, a small business entrepreneur herself, “thinks it’s best to support local artists because everything is unique,” contrasting “handmade” products with largescale consumer-driven businesses.

away, my manager went away and the song died and that was it,” Platten said. “That was really, really hard when everything fell away. All of a sudden I was like ‘Oh God, I had this shot and I lost it. I blew it.’ And I’m 30 years old. There’s no way I’m going to have another chance. That’s pretty much impossible.” Despite the odds, Platten soldiered on, hiring a new manager and writing song after song while building her confidence and her sound. One of her compositions was “Fight Song.” It got picked up for airplay by a Baltimore radio station, Mix 106.5, and soon record labels were noticing Platten as well. By last May, Platten had inked her deal with Columbia Records, which made “Fight Song” the title track of a four-song EP and released it as a single. It topped “Billboard’s” Adult Top 40 chart and reached No. 6 on the magazine’s all-genre Hot 100 singles chart, while inspiring scores of people with its

self-empowerment message. Patten had arrived, and as she watched “Fight Song” take off, she recorded her full-length debut album on Columbia, “Wildfire,” which was released on Jan. 1. The sound Platten created on the album is a good fit for today’s commercial pop. Songs like “Stand By You” (the current hit single), “Beating Me Up” and “Speechless” have arena-sized production, big pop hooks and enough emotional depth to feel a bit deeper than the usual top 40 fare. She gets some variety with the funky “Hey Hey Hallelujah” and the stripped back piano-based ballad “Better Place.” Now she’s on tour, playing a set that

leans heavily on material from “Wildfire” and offering more than the chance to see Platten sing. “I am doing a lot of choreography, too, which is really fun, actually,” she said. “I’m still playing instruments, but about half of the show is going to be dances, which is crazy because I was a horrible dancer last year. I found out recently that I totally love it and I think it helps the song come to life even more. I’m also able to express the words visually in ways that I didn’t really think I would be able to. It’s definitely a part of the show. I’m not talking serious like Beyoncé moves, but I’m going to be my own version of moving around the stage.”

Ahhh, another three-day weekend; time for a family BBQ or a quick get-away. But, while we’re all busy having fun, it is important to remember the true meaning of this holiday. It is a day for remembering the men and women who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Formerly known as Decoration Day, it originated after the American Civil War to honor soldiers from both sides. By the 20th century, Memorial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died while in the military service. Many volunteers will place American flags in cemeteries to honor our fallen. Check with your local American Legion, VFW, or scout troop if you would like to participate in this special tribute. Plan your weekend of fun but please be sure to take a moment to honor those who gave all for our freedom to enjoy this weekend.
