TLCAD receives grant for inmate training program

By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — Tender Loving Canine Assistance Dogs (TLCAD) has established a supportive partnership with Mule Creek State Prison for its inmate dog training program.

TLCAD recently received a $202,131 grant from the State of California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation that recognized TLCAD’s efforts and awarded the nonprofit with an Innovative Programs Grant.

“The prison inmate trainer programs have shown to reduce recidivism and one of our inmate trainers was recently released after over 20 years of incarceration and was able to obtain employment, stating it was largely based on his experience training service dogs by his employer,” said Rancho Santa Fe resident Karen Shultz, who also serves as president for TLCAD. “I feel the positive reinforcement training will rehabilitate most behavioral issues and make the prisoner a better neighbor when released.”

on is based in Ione, Calif.

Qualified inmates will be selected to take part in service dog training. The goal is to place the animals with those who have autism and military veterans who have PTSD, mobility challenges and/or traumatic brain injury.

TLCAD’s program, POOCH, an acronym which stands for Prisoners Overcoming Obstacles and Cre-

ating Hope, has garnered attention.

“Our dogs are able to be trained quicker and at less cost by the POOCH program, placing more service dogs in San Diego County for wounded warriors and individuals on the autism spectrum,” Shultz said.

According to Victoria Cavaliere, Programs Director at TLCAD, their POOCH program launched in 2014

at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility in San Diego.

“The POOCH program is designed to meet the increasing demands for service dogs while providing inmates an opportunity for education, rehabilitation and community improvement. TLCAD also received a grant from the Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund on May 18 and those funds are designated for hiring an additional training instructor to expand the current POOCH program in San Diego.”

Monies received by the Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund totaled $21,190.

Cavaliere pointed out that their POOCH program is designed to place six dogs in each prison for the first implementation year. She also noted that some of the animals may be puppies.

Two inmates are assigned to one dog.

“After the first year, the number of puppies/dogs placed in the prison is limited only by the number of TURN TO PROGRAM ON 20

Before her run, Giaccio visualizes it three times while remembering the countless hours of her workouts and training.

Falzon’s granddaughter began competing as a freestyle mogul skier at the age of 10. A few of her many accomplishments include being one of the youngest females ever to execute a complete backflip with full spin; being the youngest competitor earning a World Cup spot at Deer Valley in February 2016; and, being the youngest athlete in the 2016-17 U.S. Freestyle Ski Team.

Key primary election question: Who will vote?

California Focus

By Thomas D. Elias he key questions from the June 7 T primary election include

not merely who will win in each major party and how many national convention delegates they might net, but also who will vote.

That last question, in fact, might decide the answers to the first two.

Before all his opponents dropped out, it seemed that to do well, Republican businessman Donald Trump needed votes from many, many thousands of Californians who don’t ordinarily go to the polls or fill out ballots in advance.

The same for Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders on the Democratic side.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, of course, already had the great majority of usual voters well in hand long before advance voting stations opened and absentee ballots went out in mid-May. But the outpouring of youthful voters aged between 18 and 25 for President Obama in 2008 and 2012 signals that both Trump and Sanders also have the potential to change the makeup of the California electorate.

That electorate normally is dominated by older, white, college-educated, affluent, home-owning citizens.

But as Trump campaigned across America this year, he drew support mostly from people who don’t fit all those categories: They may mostly be white, but they are not so likely to be college-educated, affluent or homeowners.

Many have voted only sporadically, if ever, in the past. Sanders’ voters have often been a flip side of that: Well-educated, mostly white, but younger and neither affluent nor home-

owners.

The normal California electoral divide — the usual pattern of who votes and who does not — generally sees half of all adult U.S. citizens living here make the key decisions for the other half, who don’t vote but often gripe.

The latter category tends to be younger, poorer, more Latino, renters and less likely to be college-educated than those who vote regularly.

It’s a pattern almost guaranteed to arouse classist resentments, and that has been the essence of both the Trump and Sanders campaigns, as different as they are in many other ways.

This is important stuff

law favorably by a 55-36 percent margin. And those are only two of the differences.

The irony here is that non-voters consistently want government to do more for them (69 percent said a higher minimum wage means a lot to them), but those same people do nothing to ensure that government will perform as they want.

These findings raise a lot of questions, a key one being how to get more of the non-voters to cast ballots and actually try to put people who share their views into office.

One way, suggested Democratic state Sen. Ben Allen of Santa Monica in a recent forum, would be

The irony here is that non-voters consistently want government to do more for them if only because the divides in attitudes and emotion between groups more likely to vote and those less likely are wider than ever before in the modern era, similar in some ways to ideological splits in pre-Civil War America — and look where that led.

Here’s one divide, as determined in polling this spring by the Public Policy Institute of California: While likely voters are divided on whether government at all levels should do more to reduce gaps between rich and poor (51 percent believe government should do more, 44 percent disagree), fully 70 percent of non-voters say the government should do more.

Views of Obamacare, the Affordable Care Act, follow a similar pattern, with likely voters almost evenly split between approving it or not.

Non-voters view the

to get more news coverage of government. But with virtually all Sacramento television news bureaus closed for economic reasons (political bureaus cost money, but no one ever bought advertising time because of them) and newspapers operating at bare-bones levels because of the industry’s slump, that doesn’t figure to happen soon.

Another suggestion is better civic education in public schools. But try getting high school students to pay attention in government classes.

That might leave it up to charismatic candidates to drive the vote and bring usual nonvoters to the polls.

If Trump and Sanders do that in this election, they’ll have made at least one positive contribution.

Supervisor race Kristin Gaspar wants your vote to become county supervisor. She is model-like in her stiletto heels but how does that help her accomplish anything as supervisor?

She claims to have accomplished a number of things on the Encinitas City Council, including putting sand on the beaches — reality: Teresa Barth attended the meetings, Gaspar attended the signing in Washington, D.C. with Army Corps of Engineers.

Claims she “led the way in building a new 44-acre community park.” Reality: She was not on council when the vast majority of decisions were made.

The only sub-committee Gaspar was on was the Public Outreach & Communications.

There was one meeting and Gaspar did not attend.

She only served on one regional board, Encina Wastewater treatment plant in Carlsbad. She specifically declined any other appointments because she was too busy...being a mom and CFO! She has some large financial backers helping her to develop giant posters and slick mailers. What is she going to owe these backers? Maybe the wishes of Randy Goodson and his Lilac Hills project?

The project would build 1,746 homes in a mostly rural area where current restrictions allow only 110 homes to be built. Dave Roberts is against it.

Ask yourself, if she is too busy to participate in regional boards for Encinitas how will she find time for county supervisor? And, whom does she owe for all the big donations?

RSFA provides election process update

By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — During the June 2 Rancho Santa Fe Association board meeting, members in attendance as well as the board of directors were able to hear updates about the current election process.

Christy Whalen, communications manager for the Association, provided information as well as answered questions.

In addition to the updates, the board of directors appointed Judge David Moon and Dick Doughty as volunteer election assistants.

“We’ve had agreement from them that they would serve as election assistants,” Whalen said.

Whalen confirmed that the election deadline to return ballots is slated for June 13 at 5 p.m.

According to the unofficial count as of press time, there were 1,165 ballots received. A total of 2,200 ballots were mailed out to members. According to Whalen, members could keep track of the unofficial count on the “member side” of the RSF Association’s website.

“For the last week, we

are going to have a weekend and after-hours secured drop off.

We’re putting a locked box slot on the side door,” she said, referring to a door located at the RSFA building at 17022 Avenida De Acacias.

The locked box will be installed in the next few days, she said.

“So for people who are unable to get to the Association office and they don’t want to trust the U.S. Mail, they can certainly use that,” Whalen said.

President Ann Boon also clarified that post-

marks were irrelevant. All ballots must be received June 13 no later than 5 p.m.

Serving as election inspector is Bruce Bishop who would begin to count ballots at 8 a.m. June 14 at the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District Station 1 at 16936 El Fuego. This would be an open member meeting.

Whalen also established that Bishop is currently doing signature verifications as the ballots arrive.

“We don’t touch the ballots,” Whalen said. “It’s all for him (Bishop).”

Major improvements are planned for Stevens Avenue and Valley Avenue south of Stevens, although the work will not begin until December.

RANCHO SANTA FE — At a recent Rancho Santa Fe School District meeting, Superintendent Lindy Delaney gave special recognition to the co-chairs of the Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation.

The recipients were

Alexia Bregman and Kristin Moss.

Delaney said that both ladies had served the school district well and had given so much of their time and effort.

“These two people have stepped up in a huge leadership position, and have done

so, time and time again for the education foundation,” she said, noting how this would be Bregman’s second and final year on the board.

Delaney also shared how the quality of the school encompassed the students, teachers, administrators and the parents. And the passion

involved in the school continues to be unwavering.

“If you’re putting on a Halloween carnival, you’re putting on the best Halloween carnival you can,” Delaney said. “Nothing’s second rate around here, and it’s because of the school community here that we have.”

Roseark in West Hollywood opens its doors for event

RANCHO SANTA FE — In an effort to raise awareness for the World of Children Award, a nonprofit that helps improve the lives of children, Roseark in West Hollywood was the named venue where all could gather for a special

VIP event.

Cofounders of the nonprofit, Harry and Kay Leibowitz of Rancho Santa Fe, continue to serve as voluntary board co-chairs and were in attendance for the May soiree.

According to Lynn Naylor, the executive director

of the World of Children Award, it has been the Leibowitz family’s unwavering vision and voluntary service that has led the organization from its founding in Ohio to the international organization it is today.

Celebrities in attendance were Anne Hatha-

SOLANA BEACH — A well-traveled connector route between Lomas Santa Fe Drive and Via de la Valle will receive major improvements after council members at the May 25 meeting approved proposed plans and authorized the city engineer to advertise for construction bids.

Stevens Avenue and Valley Avenue south of Stevens carry more than 13,000 vehicles a day. The corridor is also a North County Transit District bus route.

Several schools, La Colonia Park and Community Center, homes, businesses and retail centers are served by the approximately 1-mile stretch of roadway.

Considered adequate for cars in general it is not seen as optimal for bicyclists and pedestrians.

The city unsuccessfully applied for various grants in the past, but late last year received $500,000 in funding from the San Diego Association of Governments to help pay for the $750,000 project.

The main goal is to use the public right of way to better serve pedestrians and bicyclists. Design elements include the addition of missing sections of sidewalks on both sides of the street, a 6-foot-wide bike lane with pavement markings and 87 parking stalls.

The city is collaborating with the school district as it works to replace Earl Warren Middle School on improvements south of San Rodolfo Drive. The sidewalk will be reconstructed and widened to eliminate the dirt parkway and accommodate high use.

The district also agreed to relocate an existing guardrail along Lomas Santa Fe west of the Stevens intersection.

Key intersections on Stevens and Valley will be enhanced with more clearly marked crosswalks and audible count-down signals. A bench and bus shelter will be added near La Colonia Park if funding is available.

Traffic lanes will be reduced except near Lomas Santa Fe, right- and left-

turn lanes will be added at key intersections and the pavement will be resurfaced or slurry sealed.

The city received about a dozen emails supporting the project.

“This corridor is ripe for improvements and is a key walking path between schools, the Boys & Girls Club, businesses, and La Colonia Park,” wrote Kristine Schindler. “There are so many reasons to improve this roadway and adjacent pedestrian infrastructure, including safety of all users (especially children, our Latino community, and older adults) and promotion of active transportation.

“This is a project to help create ‘Safe Routes to Everywhere,’” she added.

“I think it is very important that we improve this entire corridor to make it safe for pedestrians and bicyclists,” stated Kristin Brinner. “My daughter will be attending school in several years and I wouldn’t be comfortable letting her walk or bike to school given the current situation on Stevens.

“Cars go much too fast, the bike lanes and sidewalks appear and disappear, and generally this road is not in good condition,” she added.

The city will use TransNet funds to make up for the $250,000 estimated gap.

Construction will not begin until late this year, possibly in December, the city engineer said.

ounded in 1970 with humble beginnings as a quaint ladies’ lunch amongst friends in a private home, the Beach & Country Guild has become a major fundraising force not only in and around the Rancho Santa Fe community, but within the greater San Diego area.

Operating with the sole purpose of supporting United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) San Diego, ensuring every dollar generated remains in San Diego, thereby guaranteeing focused support to UCP and the centers it operates in San Diego to serve those whose lives are affected by cerebral palsy and other dis-

abilities.

The all-volunteer membership includes women whose families have been personally impacted by CP and those who simply believe in the cause and are dedicated to its mission.

Direct interaction with UCP consumers (as they

are called) provides an added perspective on those living with CP as well as appreciation for those who’ve dedicated their lives to serving and helping them live a fulfilling, meaningful life.

For instance, the Guild’s annual Christmas

Party at UCP’s Escondido center is a cherished tradition for members, where they share holiday treats and music with approximately 100 UCP consumers.

RANCHO SANTA FE — For those who are inspired to write poetry, a manuscript, a screenplay, a short story or a memoir, they have the unique opportunity for support at the Brown Bag Writing/Critique program at the Rancho Santa Fe Library.

Every Friday at noon, this weekly program meets at the Guild Room.

According to the library’s assistant branch manager, Haley Kwon, the impetus for the group started with a phone call in April. The call was from local resident Carla DiMare, an attorney who showed interest in creating a critique group at the library.

“Carla is a practicing civil litigation attorney and president of the Rancho Santa Fe Senior Center, who is currently working on finishing her first novel, “In Justice,” on the issues of judicial accountability and transparency,” Kwon said. “You could say this fortuitous phone call lit the candle inside me, and others in like mind, which practice the craft of storytelling and writing.”

Kwon wants people to know that all are welcome to this weekly group.

Writers are also invited to provide up to five pages of their original work they have in progress, she said.

Those in attendance will read the material and offer helpful feedback.

Survey gauging residents’ broadband service needs

TURN TO WRITING ON 20

RANCHO SANTA FE — Ever since the board of directors of the Rancho Santa Fe Association approved a “letter of intent” with Hotwire Communications in early May, many Covenant members are looking forward to the prospects of having fiber optic broadband service. Currently, an online signup survey is underway in hopes that more information can be collected regarding the needs of residents.

According to Don May, acting manager of the Rancho Santa Fe Association, the survey will help in terms of understanding the level of service Covenant members are interested in.

“We’ve already had nearly 200 members take the survey, and many have indicated an interest in the most-robust 10GB service,” May said.

“Once we have finalized the agreements with Hotwire, we will begin offering customers the ability to sign up. Our community education process will include demonstrations and events so that our members can get familiar with Hotwire Communications and the services they provide.”

While still in the early stages with more to be determined in the near future, the survey is an important step with more to follow. May pointed out that as a community, the Association is required to have 1,200 homes and businesses committed in signing up for the service to meet the launch threshold.

“The commitments enable us to make sure that the project will benefit individual users and the entire community. Once the commitments are in, the community will vote on whether to move forward with the project and financing plan,” he said.

The idea of bringing broadband service to the Ranch began nearly two years ago. It also included a privately funded feasibility study.

The Rancho Santa Fe Association’s technology committee vetted several providers and negotiated with bidders.

It was decided that Hotwire Communications was the optimal choice and would afford Covenant members with one of the best technologies.

The estimated construction cost for the technology is $13.5 million and the Rancho Santa Fe Association will be absorbing this cost with the agreement that it will own the network after a final regulatory review.

“The Rancho Santa Fe Association is working to bring the world’s fastest and most innovative service available today. In addition to bringing lightning-fast 10GB service, the deal with Hotwire Communications is a community-owned fiber-to-the-home network,” May said. “Joint ownership will provide for profit sharing and will help us ensure service levels, as well.”

The Association is asking residents to take part in the online signup survey at RSFCommunications.com.

Big Red Fest on the De Portola Trail taste of wine frank mangio

H

ave you seen and tasted wine on the De Portola Trail these days?

It’s a compelling

experience.

With the recent opening of Fazeli Cellars and the new ownership of Masia de la Vinya by the current owner of Danza del Sol, the winery count is now 10 with an increasing visitor population that likes the “elbow room� and scenic vistas that the De Portola Road wineries provide.

The trail is part of the Temecula Valley wine country, winding south of the main body of wineries. Most of these De Portola owners have put lots of money into improving their properties. And the money has been well spent, as the wines are vastly improved.

Owners like Robert Renzoni understood early on that a complete wine experience was crucial, so he set about to make fine Mediterranean-style wines with lots of choices, from Tuscan Sangiovese to the complex star-quality Sonata, which matches The Italian Super Tuscans.

After years of crucial funding searches during the great recession, a state of the art tasting room was built, with indoor-outdoor amenities second to none.

An Italian-style bistro serves an authentic old-world menu (try the pizzas, meats and cheeses direct from Italy!) There’s lots of live entertainment, even a bocce court.

We have documented the newest wine attractions, Fazeli Cellars, next door to Robert Renzoni and the exciting CAVE produced by Oak Mountain Winery a few blocks up the road.

I stopped in to see Christina and Ken Gershon of Gershon Bachus Vintners in the same neighborhood as the others. The winery produces 12 varietals of wines, and none are released younger than 5 years old.

Mexican restaurant chain coming to San Marcos

By Hoa Quach

SAN MARCOS — Chronic Tacos is returning to San Diego County this summer after a four-year hiatus in the region.

Chronic Tacos, a fast-casual restaurant chain, plans to open in San Marcos by the end of June. The restaurant chain, which specializes in authentic Mexican food, previously had locations in Encinitas and Solana Beach before shutting them down in 2012. “We really miss being in San Diego County,� Michael Mohammed, CEO and co-owner of Chronic Tacos, said. “We always felt San Diego County was a good fit because people know their Mexican food and love their Mexican food. We closed our locations in Encinitas and Solana Beach because they weren’t the best locations, but we feel San Marcos is a great start for us to get back into the region.�

The North County location will open on West San Marcos Boulevard with the help of about 15 employees.

It will be locally owned by Abdo Mouannes. Mohammed said a second location will open in San Diego County in Oceanside sometime in the fall of 2016.

Despite Chronic Tacos being new to San Diego County, the restaurant chain has a long history in the food

industry.

Chronic Tacos was founded by Randy Wyner and Dan Biello in Newport Beach in 2002. Mohammed said the two opened a Mexican food restaurant after failing to find one that met their needs. “They didn’t have any restaurant experience but they loved taquerias,� Mohammed said. “At the time, all the taquerias in Newport

were either dirty or not very friendly so they felt there was something they could bring to the table.�

Mohammed said with the help of a friend and his great grandmother who lived in Mexico, the two opened a restaurant in Newport Beach. The duo used family recipes from the great grandmother that are still used at all Chronic Tacos locations today. “It’s those recipes that differentiate us from a lot of the taco shops out there,� Mohammed said. “Our flavors are more authentic but it’s California-inspired because we use fresh, high-quality ingredients. We make everything from scratch every morning.�

More than 10 years after the first Chronic Tacos location opened, Mohammed and his three brothers purchased the majority of the company.

The brothers revamped the company’s business plan and now oversee 31 locations in California, Utah, Arizona, Nevada and Canada. “We became familiar with the brand when they came up to Vancouver,� Mohammed said. “I really loved the brand’s uniqueness and the food so we helped finance the expansion.

In 2012, we bought the company.�

exploding? Is it the new Oceanside or will North County just blend together into a plethora of independent eating and drinking establishments? That would not be a bad thing but probably best saved for another

column.

The new Flying Pig resides in a refurbished bank building and has a look and feel all it’s own and much different than the Oceanside location. It’s open and airy and larger, with outdoor seating and a bigger bar area. I thought it looked great. I went on a Tuesday night

and the place was full which is a good sign. We sat at the bar though because that’s just what I prefer and our bartender and server were both eager to pair beverages with each of our courses which is a good reflection on the pride they take in providing a complete dining experience.

We started with a super fresh Stone Fruit Salad with tomato chimichuri that was

The Gershons have been owners for some 10 years and were pouring wines like a 2010 Zinfandel ($45) and a 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon ($59). These wines are in limited production offering the highest quality possible.

The cab received 93 points in Wine Enthusiast.

I asked Ken Gershon what he has observed about this wine region over the last 10 years. “We weren’t wine people,� he said. “We came from L.A. to build a house for weekends. One thing led to another and it became a winery.

First few years we found out this was not Cabernet country like Napa Valley. But over time and maturity in the vineyards, even the cabs are so much better now. “Our biggest challenge is marketing, getting the word out about this valley. Most of the media think we’re a party valley and don’t take our wines seriously. We want visitors who enjoy the wines. We’re pooling our resources and linking up to make it easier to visit. We’re really pleased to see that this Big Red event

ooking back a few years now, the Oceanside Flying Pig was on the forefront of the North County dining revolution.

Even more so in Oceanside where there were not a lot of places that were drawing

foodies to the area.

Well we all know how that has changed over the past few years and despite all the look-alikes, the original Pig is still packing them in.

I expected more of the same when I headed out to Vista to give the newish Flying Pig Pub & Kitchen a try.

Students, seniors meld ideas to engineer new inventions

By Steve Puterski

LA JOLLA — Science mixed with real-life applications brought together two generations over the past several months.

Engineering and psychiatric students from the Center of Healthy Aging at the University of California San Diego and senior citizens from Carlsbad’s La Costa Glen retirement community saw months of work on display on Saturday during the Design Competition Showcase.

The goal for the students was to develop products to assist in the day-today challenges of senior living, while the seniors provided the feedback necessary to construct those assets.

“They interviewed us and after the interviews they showed us what they had come up with,” said Carlsbad resident Nancy Gardner. “It was great because the students did not know about seniors and what our needs were. I think these students have come up with some very, very good ideas.”

The winning project, which the students received $4,000 for, was a motorized shopping cart developed by the team calling themselves the “Fountain of Youth.”

In second place was AirSave, a jacket with

foam guards along the hips and spine, and which also featured airbags that could be deployed during a fall to the ground.

Taking third was a team who created a lighted carpet, activated by the pressure of a person’s feet, to guide a senior from the

bathroom to the kitchen or to the bedroom during the night.

Other projects included mobile apps to make taking medication easier.

Another was a safety alert system, which relayed information to a mobile device in case the person

forgot to turn off a stove, or other appliance or even close the garage door.

Regardless of the outcomes, the seniors were thoroughly impressed with the achievements of the students, and their creativity.

“A week before the competition started, my grandpa fell down the stairs and was in the hospital for two months,” said Gabriel Frischer of the AirSave project. “We wanted to create something that could prevent fall-related injuries. It’s a common problem and there is no widely accepted solution.”

Wen Li, a second-year engineering graduate student, was part of Team Vita, which developed the lighted carpet panels. She said after interviewing several seniors she and her partners realized nighttime falls could be fatal for seniors.

Their concept creates a lighted pathway in squares pieced together like a puzzle in one-square foot increments. In the case of a fall, the surrounding squares would be activated by the pressure, which in turn could lead to the technology sending out alerts to friends, family and even 911.

They are somewhere, and may well not surface until you’ve paid to replace them. But we hope you will have a look anyway, just to indulge us.

Sooner is better with ‘early action regenerative medicine’ The renaissance in healing using regenerative and stem cell medicine is well underway.

From Stanford scientists using injected stem cells to help stroke patients walk again to 3-D printing of liver and cartilage, the headlines have been exploding with exciting research and stunning outcomes in stem cell science.

In orthopedics, regenerative treatments have been shown to heal partially torn ligaments, regrow cartilage, stabilize joints, decrease inflammation and pain, and improve function—all without surgery or prolonged recovery times.

As more of us have become aware of the promise of regenerative medicine, many patients with arthritis and soft tissue injuries have flooded local clinics looking for a solution for their pain.

Most have found re-

lief. Some, however, have come in too late for these non-surgical treatments to help.

Regenerative therapies in orthopedic medicine are surprisingly effective.

In many studies, over 80 percent of patients have shown improvement—both in levels of pain and in ability to function and enjoy life—as a result of these non-surgical, natural treatments.

However, since most of these therapies work with the patient’s own healing systems, the earlier in the process we can intervene, the better the outcome.

Once arthritis has progressed to the point of bony remodeling, once a tendon tear progresses to complete rupture, once the injury has been in place long enough for additional, compensatory changes or central pain to evolve, regenerative medicine is limited in what it can do.

The key, as in many fields of medicine, is to catch the process early.

There are three main categories of regenerative treatments available for sports injuries and arthritis: Prolotherapy: Dating back 2,500 years, prolotherapy is the purposeful stimulation of the body’s innate capacity to heal wounds and repair injured tissues. In this treatment, dry needling and injection of dextrose or other solutions stimulate the area that need repair to start the healing cascade.

This therapy has been shown to stabilize joints, strengthen ligaments and tendons, and directly control nerve pain.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP): This treatment involves the injection of concentrated platelets and growth factors—as collected from the patient’s blood

during an in-office procedure—into an area of injury or arthritis. The growth factor concentrate signals local progenitor cells to replace the injured area with healthy tissue.

Stem Cell Therapies: The patient’s own mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow or fat are used to deliver stem cells, growth factors (PRP/platelet lysate), and supportive cells locally to the site of damage or arthritis, or intravascular to distant organs and nerves.

Mesenchymal stem cells are known to differentiate into cartilage, bone, muscle, ligament, and nerve cells; control inflammation; and attract other stem cells and growth factors to the injured area.

This therapy is used when more effective healing of a severely injured region or more advanced arthritis is desired, and is considered the current

state-of-the-art in regenerative therapy.

These therapies can be used alone or in combination to help correct instability or damage in the musculoskeletal system.

Mild to moderate arthritis and soft tissue injuries frequently respond well, and early intervention can slow or prevent progression to more severe arthritis, and additional soft tissue damage. While those patients with more advanced disease can still obtain some relief, the earlier you can start healing, the better the outcome.

A former NIH fellow, Dr. Alexandra Bunyak is focused on bringing this emerging research to her patients.

She is quadruple board certified in Sports Medicine, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Holistic Medicine, and Pain Medicine.

She trained at Yale,

the University of Pennsylvania, and Northwestern’s Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago.

Dr. Bunyak will be speaking about regenerative therapies and recent research advances at her upcoming Wednesday evening talks at the Encinitas Community Center at 6:30 p.m.: “Early Action Regenerative Medicine” June 29: This regenerative medicine overview talk will range from herbs to stem cells and everything in between.

Experts in spine care to host free community workshop on noninvasive options ENCINITAS — Eight out of 10 of you reading this will suffer from some type of back pain in your lifetime.

And chances are, regardless of the cause of your pain, you suffer silently.

Dr. Neville Alleyne and Dr. Payam Moazzaz realize this, and invite you to a free workshop that will explore the many noninvasive treatment options available for all types of back issues that could help get your life and your back … back.

In the event that you require a spinal fusion, you might feel that back surgery isn’t an option for you.

Concerns about the risks

associated with the surgery, doubts about the effectiveness and the lengthy recovery time have likely swayed you against electing to have a procedure done.

One of the latest advances in technology, robotic spine surgery, can help to alleviate those fears.

One of the risks associated with surgery has to do with the length of time a patient is under anesthesia.

In traditional back surgery the doctor doesn’t have the full scope of the patient’s issue until the time of the actual surgery, which means a longer and more invasive operation.

Mazor Robotics, which

is used by Dr. Moazzaz and Dr. Alleyne at Tri-City Medical Center in Oceanside, allows surgeons to create a “flight plan” of sorts prior to operating.

“One of my favorite things to do is plan out my patient’s surgery using the robotic computer software on my laptop at home the night before their surgery,” Dr. Moazzaz said.

“Most of the surgery is done before my patient ever gets to the operating room, which minimizes the length of time they are under anesthesia and helps ensure the outcomes are predictable and reproducible.”

Another reason many

put off back surgery is because they fear the results won’t be enough to justify an operation.

Mazor Robotics’ technology is designed to provide consistent accuracy to 1 mm, which is superior to freehand surgery.

In fact, a recently published study demonstrated 98.3 percent accuracy for placing 3,271 implants in 635 cases in 14 international medical centers.

Dr. Moazzaz places the utmost importance on the success of his surgeries. “I take the outcomes of my patients’ surgeries personally and I am not satisfied until I know they are happy and doing well,” he said.

People today are busier than ever, and the thought of being out of commission for any length of time has forced many to live in severe pain rather than elect to have surgery.

Mazor Robotics changes by drastically reducing recovery time. “My patients are up and walking the day of their surgery and are leaving the hospital quicker,” Dr. Moazzaz said. “This technology has dramatically improved our outcomes as compared to more traditional spinal surgery techniques.”

Dr. Moazzaz and Dr. Alleyne invite anyone who is suffering from any back pain — whether it is mod-

erate or severe — to a free upcoming workshop.

The two-hour event is a rare opportunity for the community to spend time with these renowned national experts in robotic spine surgery and get information and ask questions to determine whether robotic spine surgery is the best option for them.

The event will take place from 5 to 7 p.m. June 22 at the Encinitas Community Center, at 1140 Oakcrest Park Drive. To RSVP, call Heather at (951) 4401681.

RSF School District commends retiring staff and students

By Christina Macone-Greene

RANCHO SANTA FE — The June board meeting at the Rancho Santa Fe School District was a time for celebration.

Distinguished awards were given to retiring staff members, students who were part of the Intergalactic Dragons Robotics Team, as well as students who had a perfect attendance for the school year.

Retiring staff members included Pam Alexander, Lani Hart, Carolyn Jensen, Beth McManus, Dr. Jeff Owen and Tamera Surovchak. All received standing ovations for their dedication.

Cupcake tower raises awareness, funds — and the bar

By Tony Cagala

ESCONDIDO — The amount of work and hours that went into it was staggering — 96 cupcakes coming and going into and out of the oven every 20 minutes for at least two days, 25,000 cupcakes total, and all stacked to a height reaching more than 30-feet tall.

But in the end, what was really staggering to Zoe Sanchez Richardson, the woman behind the massive and potentially the world’s largest cupcake tower, was that there was still no cure for cancer.

But why cupcakes?

“Cupcakes signify birthdays for cancer patients,” Sanchez Richardson said. “And the American Cancer Society is known for giving cancer patients more birthdays with all their research that they’ve done throughout the years, so our whole thought was why not honor that and celebrate that.”

Sanchez Richardson is a stage 4 cancer fighter.

She’s surpassed the time frame her doctor had given her.

For the mother of two sons, being told to get her final affairs in order was an experience she described only as “surreal.”

“I made the decision,” she said. “I could either have that pity party, where I’m just like, ‘oh, poor pitiful me,’… I made the decision — I’m going to fight the fight every single day and show people that regardless that I have cancer, I’m still

very much a community activist, I’m going out there talking about cancer.”

Part of the reason behind the tower, besides helping to raise funds for the American Cancer Society, was to continue to raise awareness that despite all the cancer research being done, the unfortunate part is the “astronomical” growth of cancer in the community, she explained.

But maybe, with the tower, there was a little bit of wanting to leave a legacy behind for Sanchez Richardson, too.

After the cupcake tower was completed on Saturday, she and her son, Chris, took a scissor lift to the top and measured. The tally came in at 31-feet, 5-inches.

The plan is to submit the measurements, along with other materials to the Guinness World Records organization for verification that their tower is the tallest ever constructed yet.

On April 29, the Wafi Mall in Dubai became the most recent Guinness World Record holder for the tallest cupcake tower, which stood at 8 meters, or just over 26-feet, and contained about 8,000 cupcakes.

Sanchez Richardson’s son, Chris, 19, a Palomar College student that plans to transfer to UC Riverside to become an anesthesiologist, remembers when his mom first brought the idea of the tower up.

“Looking at pictures, it didn’t seem too hard at all.

MiraCosta program helps former foster youth succeed in college Maria Aguilar knows too well the challenges foster youth face in college.

“We go through a lot of struggles,” said Aguilar, a former foster youth who was supporting herself before she turned 18. “So many former foster youths can’t afford textbooks. So many haven’t been raised to understand the importance of education. So many can’t afford housing.”

Which is why MiraCosta College has RAFFY, an acronym for Resources and Assistance for Former Foster Youth, a comprehensive program providing life skills coaching, counseling, workshops, housing referrals and financial assistance ranging from gift cards and bus passes to emergency funds to pay the rent.

“The RAFFY program is absolutely incredible,” said Aguilar, who worked as a RAFFY program assistant and is now on her way to UC San Diego to study biochemistry. “It really is a life saver for so many people.”

One study of former foster youth in California found that 65 percent have no place to live once they are on their own and more than half are unemployed.

A past plagued by trauma and abuse is not uncommon.

Most have no safety net and no supportive family member or sibling to whom they can turn. Many want to go to college, but have no means to do so.

Which is why RAFFY is generating such strong support from the community. Among its strongest supporters is the Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund, which recently awarded the program a $20,000 grant to cover transportation, books and emergency grants for one-time critical needs such as housing for students in crisis. The Women’s Fund also granted the program $25,000 in 2012.

“A small amount of money can make such a huge difference in the lives of these students,” said Gillian Gillies, the group’s past grants chair. “They don’t have a parent or family member to turn to when they need somebody to help them out when they’re short on cash to buy food, pay the rent, purchase their textbooks or if their carburetor breaks down.”

MiraCosta College is not alone in helping former foster youth in need. Almost 60 former foster students, for example, are enrolled in the ACE Scholars Services program at Cal State San Marcos, which provides academic counseling, emergency financial assistance and

Odd Files

By Chuck Shepherd Who’s a Good Boy? Life is good now for British men who “identify” as dogs and puppies, as evidenced by a BBC documentary (“Secret Life of the Human Pups”) showing men in body outfits (one a Lycra-suited Dalmatian, “Spot”), exhibiting “sexual” expres-

sions (stomach-rubbing, ear-tickling and nuzzling their “handlers”), eating out of bowls, gnawing on chew toys, wearing collars (so as not to be a “stray”), and jumping in the air for “treats.” (However, decency demands that a Pup must only feign urinating against a lamppost.) Said Spot (aka Tom), “It’s about being given license to behave in a way that feels natural, even primal.”

Added “Bootbrush,” “(We) are trying to grasp the pos-

on-campus jobs. San Diego State University’s Guardian Scholars Program offers a similar package of aid to help students leaving the foster care system succeed.

But few community colleges have a program as comprehensive and effective as RAFFY, a program that has yielded an astounding 91 percent retention rate for students utilizing all of its services. Not only does RAFFY help former foster youth who enroll at MiraCosta College, it also actively recruits former foster youth to register for classes.

Seventy-two students were enrolled in the RAFFY during the spring semester.

RAFFY, with an annual budget of less than $140,000, succeeds by establishing high expectations for its students. Participants must sign a contract agreeing to attend an orientation before receiving services, take part in two counseling sessions every semester, submit a midterm progress report to monitor academic progress, maintain a 2.0 grade point average, and engage in at least one RAFFY workshop on subjects ranging from time management to personal finances.

“It is a well-run program that does a lot of good and that we are proud to support,” said Gillies.

20 SMALL TALK

T he R ancho S anta F e News book might be. “Book? I had a book?” You know that one is never coming back.

It also seems to be the time of year for sticky, damp books.

I’m not sure why this happens. I like to think our darling students have become such enthusiastic readers that they bring the book to the dinner table.

More likely, it got slammed between a juice box and a PB&J when they

smacked their buddy with their already sticky backpack.

So grab your binoculars, get down on all fours and flush out those missing tomes.

They can be shy, but all they really want is to come home.

dozens of hostesses opened their magnificent homes to Dia del Sol’s patrons for a guided tour followed by a silent auction, informal modeling, and lunch (prepared and served by Guild members until the early 2000s!) on-property, often on the hostess’s private tennis court.

In the late 1990s, Nordstrom joined the event to produce a full-scale fashion show for a lengthy partnership that spanned over a decade.

Though Dia del Sol has changed over the years — it is no longer held in a private home, processes have been modernized to include elements like a virtual auction system, and food is catered — members’ commitment and dedication to the Guild’s core mission re-

mains unwavering.

The 47th Annual Dia del Sol will be chaired by members Nancy Sappington and Cruz Zahran, and will take place Oct. 19.

For the first time, the event will be held at the picturesque Park Hyatt Aviara, and is scheduled to feature silent and live auctions as well as the ever-popular children’s fashion show, starring models of varying abilities including those affected by CP, as well as a fully staged ladies’ fashion show, for which the Guild is proud to announce a first-ever partnership with Bloomingdale’s.

said the setting the record was important for one reason: “because it makes my wife happy, and whatever my wife does that makes her happy, is my goal in life.”

“We worked really, really hard at it,” Sanchez Richardson said of the tower. “We made sure we adhered to all the guidelines that Guinness said. But I think it’s important just for the fact to show, number one, what Escondido did — the little town of Escondido did this.”

After 27 years in remission, Tanya MacLeod, who was diagnosed with

cancer nine different times and had surgeries for every one of them, she said, has become a steadfast friend with Sanchez Richardson.

What the tower represents, MacLeod said, was a showing that the community cares. “That we’re here for one another.”

The two friends, with many others, also walked last weekend in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life at Del Dios Middle School on June 4.

Once the cupcakes were stacked and measured for verification purposes, they were sold off at $1 per dozen.

Mohammed said he hopes new customers will appreciate the friendliness and vibe of the restaurant when it opens in San Marcos.

“We’re really looking forward to re-introducing ourselves to San Diego

County, and provide that California-inspired Mexican food in a fun, laid-back atmosphere,” Mohammed said. “We are based in Southern California so that’s who we are. I really hope people will enjoy the authenticity of the brand.”

inmate applicants who meet the program qualifications to participate. The service dog industry claims that only 25 to 30 percent of dogs trained actually graduate as service dogs,” she said. She continued, “But prison trained service dogs have a much higher percentage — TLCAD’s POOCH program at Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility had a 75 percent placement rate during the initial program trial.”

And the dogs in training reside with the inmates in their cell so the interaction is ongoing.

light and refreshing and a perfect way to begin the feast that was on the way.

I believe the Bacon Mac & Cheese is on both menus and that’s a good thing.

If there is one place that can rekindle my love of this dish it’s Flying Pig. My suggestion is to split an order, nibble at it and leave enough to be reheated or eaten cold for a solid lunch the next day. It’s rich, decadent and oh-so-good.

The next dish is perfect example of the kitchen at Flying Pig showing some creativity. The Katsu Curry with breaded Duroc Pork is freaking amazing. I got turned on to Katsu Curry at Ogata in Encinitas before they closed. Katsu is short for tonkatsu, meaning breaded pork cutlet and Katsu curry is one of the most popular dishes in Japan. It is usually served with rice and pickled daikon on the side.

I’ve mentioned Duroc pork often, as it seems to be the breed of choice among discerning chefs. It’s a rich flavored pork with superior tenderness and natural juiciness. It also contains a higher percentage of in-

JUNE 10, 2016 week, the inmates meet with TLCAD instructors.

Cavaliere pointed out that the instructors guide the inmates in utilizing a curriculum that underscores positive reinforcement dog training techniques. Training a service dog can vary between six to 18 months depending on the age of the dog as well as the tasks they are trained to perform.

“Instructors also meet with community volunteers who take dogs out of the prison weekly for community exposure,” she said.

Cavaliere added, “The program was developed based on best practice standards in the industry and adheres to Assistance Dogs International (ADI) standards.”

While some dogs are used via an ADI breeding cooperative, Cavaliere shared, their nonprofit also teams up with local shelters and rescue organizations for potential canine candidates in their Rescue Acquisition Protocol.

If for any reason the dogs are unable to meet the standards during the course of their training, they are placed in forever pet homes.

The POOCH program enhances one life at a time.

“In teaching positive reinforcement and providing a skill to incarcerated individuals, TLCAD is able to more successfully fulfill its mission to transform lives through service dogs,” Cavaliere said.

the marketplace.

Professor Truong Nguyen of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, and Assistant Professor of Psychology Maria Marquine, said the collaboration between students and seniors was key into developing worthwhile products.

The prize money, Nguyen said, is to push the students, who did not receive credit, into building functioning products.

“I think it’s been very beneficial for both,” Marquine said. “I was very invested in finding a good product, but I also see value from the interaction the seniors and students are having.”

“Engineering students normally just design something and think that somebody will use it,” Nguyen added. “We teach them the reverse.

They are really learning the whole process of how a product is made.”

cal sense, self- deprecating humor and back stories,” she said.

Even though the group is fairly new, Kwon describes the weekly attendance somewhat loose in commitment due to family obligations and travel plans.

“I wouldn’t let these ordinary distractions discourage anyone from investing in this time for one’s heart work. The present company has been overwhelmingly

positive and very faithful to each other’s struggles and creative process,” she said.

According to Kwon, the group presents no form of hierarchy.

With an egalitarian approach, every writer is respectful of one another.

And the program will continue on during the summer months.

“This is a weekly meeting originally fashioned to keep the eternal lights on,” she said.

tramuscular fat or as we call it, marbling and that makes for delicious, flavorful pork.

Contrary to many folks preconceived notions (including mine) new Flying Pig is not just about pork.

Our next dish was a beautiful piece of fresh local Halibut with a delicate garlic and shallot sauce.

The fresh catch varies along with menu staples like the octopus salad done Tandoori style with fennel P.E.I Mussels in a green curry coconut sauce, a Nicoise salad with a piece of seared albacore, the Scottish Salmon entree and of course their shrimp and grits.

Another very pleasant surprise was the house made daily pasta. Ours was a super flavorful pork ragu sauce with perfect al dente spaghetti. This pasta was as good as I’ve had locally.

The richness of the ragu was an indication of a low and slow simmer for maximum flavor.

The Chicken with Corn Succotash was another winner. Mary’s free-range chicken sits on smoked corn succotash, roasted peppers, pea tendrils and spring garlic. Mary’s Chicken is a San Joaquin Valley chicken farm and is

a leader in the free-range chicken movement.

One of their signature dishes is the all-natural Compart Duroc Pork Chop. It’s served on a bed of creamy polenta, sherry braised Castelvetrano olives, shallot, garlic and petite mustard greens. Super moist and lots of great flavors that compliment each other perfectly on this dish.

Flying Pig has a nice craft beer selection and an extensive wine program that showcases owner Roddy Browning’s days as a sommelier. They keep desert simple with a Sundae that has vanilla ice cream, root beer reduction, fresh caramel and candied walnuts. That and a decadent Pot de Crème should make most folks happy.

Making travel less stressful and more convenient hit the road e’louise ondash

I

nventors who love to travel have been hard at work creating products that make it less stressful and more convenient for you to get from here to there. Here are this month’s picks:

Original Worm — They call it The Worm because — well, that’s what it looks like. But that’s where the resemblance ends.

This Worm is a portable body and muscle massage roller designed to make those long car rides and plane flights more tolerable.

Small enough to pop into your purse, carry-on or gym bag, the Worm helps relieve the knots and tension that come with long hours of travel, an uncomfortable hotel bed or too many hours at the keyboard.

Pink or black. $25 to $34.

Visit theoriginalworm.com/.

Suntegrity-lipstick — Here’s an idea that’s basic and provides a solution for a universal need (for women, anyway) - a lipstick that combines color with sunscreen (zinc oxide). We can thank Suntegrity for LIP C.P.R, which comes in eight shades and contains an SPF of 30. The lipsticks also provide a moisturizing effect, and contain no parabens, phthalates, propylene glycol, sulfates and chemical UV absorbers.

Comes in eight colors. $28. suntegrityskincare.com/lips/.

You can fasten the fabric to either show off the clip or hide it.

Choose from several styles in gold and silver. Maggies come in packs of two, three or four clips. $20 to $ 3 0 . mymaggies.com

neetproducts.com/.

Leisure Leash — Many restaurants, hiking paths and other places have become dog-friendly, but leashes are usually required — which means you’ve got to carry yet another thing. Leisure Leash is the answer to following the rules but doing it hands-free — making you and your dog happy. When it’s time to take Fido off the leash, he can carry it himself. The twopart Leisure Leash is constructed from high-quality, strong, colorful nylon and a stainless steel clip. About $22. leisureleash. com/.

Salvador Kitti — Wearable Goggles is fun to say but they are even better to wear. Made for kids and adults, the goggles were invented and designed by a dad who was frustrated with swim goggles that pulled at the hair (ouch), slid down the back of the head, or were too tight or too difficult to put on and take off.

“Anne Hathaway, who appears in the movie as The White Queen, attended the event to support her husband, Adam Shulman, co-founder of James Banks Design,” Naylor said. She continued, “Adam and Anne have been long time friends and supporters of World of Children Award and James Banks Design has created a limited edition fine jewelry collection exclusively for World

Currently, the World of Children Award is headquartered in Dublin, Calif.

Naylor explained that their organization improves the lives of vulnerable children by funding and elevating the most effective change-makers for children worldwide.

she has a passion for academics. She attends the esteemed Stanford University Online High School and has a penchant for writing.

“I definitely feel as though I am receiving a great education, while still able to continue pursuing my passion of mogul skiing to the greatest extent possible,” she said.

Originally from Connecticut, Giaccio and her family moved to Vermont in 2011 and then made a beeline to Vail, Colo., in 2013. However, that’s about to change in June since the U.S. Ski Team trains in Park City, Utah and the Giaccio family will be making another exciting move.

Giaccio’s mother, Erin, said that her daughter’s athletic career has put the family on a path that they never anticipated.

“To compete at this elite level, it is important

ROOF! ROOF!

to have the proper training and coaches. In order to do this, you need to go where the snow is,” Erin Giaccio said. “This was one of our major forces in our family’s decision to relocate to Colorado from our home in Vermont. Stemming from the amount of snow fall that the West receives compared to the East, the training, programs and competitions in the East are not a match for the training, programs and competitions in the West.”

According to Giaccio, she is beyond enthusiastic to begin training with her team.

“Making the U.S. Freestyle Ski Team has been a vital accomplishment in my skiing career thus far, especially because the 2018 Olympics are less than two years away,” Giaccio said.

“And this achievement puts me in a great position to make a run at qualifying for the U.S. Olympic Team and competing in South Korea.”

Giaccio received her U.S. Freestyle Ski Team nomination in April.

She said that she was selected to be a member due to her performance at The U.S. Freestyle National Championships in March 2016. From all the top female mogul skiers she competed against, she secured second place.

Many call Giaccio’s performance extraordi-

JUNE 10, 2016 nary considering how she had recently recovered from an injury after she placed 16th at her first World Cup event in Deer Valley. Giaccio compressed three vertebrae in a hard fall two days later during another run which required a four week recovery.

“During these four weeks, I was scheduled to compete in the North American Tour, which consists of four events held throughout North America,” she said. “The overall winner of this tour, if they are from the U.S., is awarded a spot on the U.S. Freestyle Ski Team for the following year.”

Giaccio described these four weeks as the toughest — but she pushed through it.

In addition to her family, she also notes that her successes this year stems from her coaches Kate Blamey and Bobby Aldighieri of Steamboat Winter Sports Club.

“Olivia sets the standard for progression and confidence in Women’s mogul skiing presenting an outwardly fearless attitude towards some of the most challenging aspects of the sport,” Kate Blamey said.

Aldighieri also worked with Giaccio this year.

“Throughout my coaching career I have found that there is one attribute that is absolutely necessary for an athlete to achieve high levels and that is athlete character,” he said. “Olivia epitomizes this trait.”

Looking ahead, Matthew Gnoza, head mogul coach for the United States Freestyle Ski Team, said he is very excited to have Giaccio join their Women’s Mogul Team.

“This past season Olivia proved to be one of the top up and coming mogul skiers in the Unit-

ed States,” he said. “With Olivia’s dedication, work ethic and talent the 2018 Olympic Games are well within her reach.”

While Giaccio thanks her parents for all their support and encouragement, she is quick to point out how her younger brother, Frankie, has been a positive influence for her, too.

Giaccio’s father, Frank, shed some light about a misconception regarding funding for the ski team.

“Olivia is responsible for all of her expenses, including her traveling, lodging, and competition expense,” he said, noting how it may exceed $29,000 for the year.

Giaccio’s mother explained how, that now that her daughter has reached an elite level, what comes next is elite training and traveling.

“With the national team, she will be traveling to train on snow in Whistler in June for two weeks, Australia in August for three weeks and then Switzerland in October for three weeks,” she said.

“Olivia’s goal is to be a part of the full World Cup tour this year and to perform well enough to begin posting results towards qualifying for the 2018 Winter Olympics.”

Giaccio admits that what keeps her grounded is embracing that there is always room for improvement.

“Each and every day, I just try to perform in every area of my life to the greatest potential and always try to be as kind and grateful as I can to everyone in my life,” Giaccio said.

To learn more about Giaccio’s journey, she invites you to join “TeamLivy” at oliviagiaccio.com for journal updates and support for her training and travel expenses.

Cardiff kid wows on ‘So You Think You Can Dance’

By Aaron Burgin

ENCINITAS — Merrick Hanna said it all happened so fast.

The bright lights, the cameras, the celebrities.

But then the beat dropped, and Merrick was home.

The 11-year-old Cardiffby-the-Sea boy who has a love for robots and pop-locking was auditioning for the longtime Fox dance competition, “So You Think You Can Dance.” He wowed the celebrity panel of TV show producer Nigel Lythgoe, singer/choreographer Paula Abdul and pop singer Jason Derulo with his popping, and earned himself a ticket to the show’s second phase.

The performance has since gone viral and garnered Merrick an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres show, which aired this week.

“I was so excited,” said Merrick, a fifth grader at Ada Harris Elementary. “I was a bit star struck at first because it all happened in a blur…there were a million different things going through my head. I was excited, super confused about what happened next, it was a bit overwhelming with all of the lights an cameras everywhere. But it was mostly awesome.”

It’s also been a blur for the Hanna family, which includes his parents Shawn and Aletha, and his little brother, Sagan.

Aletha Harris said that

two years ago, she and the family would spend their Saturdays on the soccer pitch, as Merrick was a competitive soccer player.

But around December 2014, he started to dance — in his room imitating the moves of dancers on YouTube.

“He did that for about six to eight months until someone saw him dancing in the park and said, ‘You need to get this kid into dance

classes,’” Aletha said.

They enrolled Merrick in dance classes at the local YMCA, and he hasn’t looked back since.

“He was on the soccer’s A team, but when season came up and he was 9, he told us he didn’t want to play soccer anymore, he only wanted to dance,” Aletha said. “It was quite the change; instead of going to soccer games, we were going to dance recitals and

dance battles. But he loves it. He loves the energy and camaraderie between the dancers and the fact that he is often times the youngest one there.”

When asked how Merrick is able to do what he does, Aletha could only shrug.

“He just does it, that’s his secret power,” she said.

“He can watch something and do it. I am glad he applied that to dancing and not ninja arts.”

As Merrick improved as a dancer, he started posting videos to his Instagram page. Those videos attracted the attention of producers from “So You Think You Can Dance,” which invited him to audition for this season.

A longtime avid watcher of the show, Aleta said she knew that dancers who survived the first cut are subjected to a battery of different dance styles. So, they enrolled Merrick in “serious dance” classes for three weeks.

“You can’t stuff years of technical training into three weeks, but we tried,” she said.

But on the day of the audition, Merrick stuck to his guns — a style that combines robotic moves with more fluid wave-like motions, a style he calls “flo-bot.”

He attempted to fake out the judges by starting his performance with an awkward rendition of the dance made famous by Alfonso Ribeiro on “The Fresh Prince.”

Then, when the beat dropped, Merrick unleashed a series of pop-locking moves that left the judges in awe.

The judges unanimously and enthusiastically voted Merrick to the next stage of the competition.

Shortly after he got off stage, his mother got an email from Ellen DeGeneres’ show, asking him to appear on the Ellen show.

The whole family got to attend as Merrick was interviewed by DeGeneres and got to meet Stephen “tWitch” Boss, the show’s disc jockey and a former “Dance” contestant — also one of Merrick’s idols.

“The coolest person I met so far is tWitch, he is super awesome,” Merrick said.

“He is a super good dancer, his pops are amazing and he can pretty much do anything, and he’s super nice.

He even took selfies with us.”

Merrick has already attended the “Dance” academy, which narrows the 83 contestants down to a final 10, but the Hanna family can’t say whether Merrick has advanced until the show airs later this month.

“I think they’d take my house if I told you,” Aletha said with a laugh.

Until then, Merrick is soaking up the residuals of his 15 minutes of fame. He has a couple of auditions in Los Angeles, he will be in a back-to-school TV advertisement for clothing company H&M and he just finished filming a TV pilot.

He will also continue what he loves: dancing. He assists the children’s hip-hop dance class at the YMCA — attended by Sagan. He performs at the San Diego Botanic Garden June 9 at 5 p.m. and at the San Diego Fair June 24 with the YMCA dance troupe, and has a performance June 11 with the Evolution Dance company in Carlsbad.

“I definitely never want to stop dancing,” Merrick said. “But I also want to be a robotic engineer.”

Garden training prepares military for PACOM deployments fourth or fifth time we’ve worked with ADAPT, providing the garden and the subtropical fruit garden, (that) has been where a lot of their training goes on,” said Duval.

“It’s a real positive program,” he said.

Staff Sgt. Michael Schilling, with the 353 Civil Affairs Command, U.S. Army Reserves based out of New York, was one of the service members taking part in the ADAPT course.

He said he’s never used this type of training before on his deployments to either Iraq

By Tony Cagala

ENCINITAS — The San Diego Botanic Garden has served as the backdrop to countless peaceful walks and meanders, but last month it also served as the backdrop for training military personnel as they prepare for deployment to countries in the Pacific Command (PACOM) region.

“It’s probably one of the few, if not the only place in the continental U.S. that has tropical fruit trees and tropical plants, as well as Mediterranean plants all in one place,” said Paul Sommers, project manager with ADAPT (Agricultural Development for Armed Forces Pre-Deployment Training), one of the founders of the program.

Now a retired professor from California State University, Fresno where he helped develop the program about six years ago, Sommers said the military contracted the university to help grow service members’ understanding of farming and agriculture when deploying to Afghanistan.

The need arose years ago when military officials in Helmand Province realized agriculture was an important part of the province’s activities, and also a source of conflict.

“So they needed training in agriculture and the culture of agriculture in Afghanistan so that they would have more tools in their toolkit when working with civilians,” Sommers said.

Today, with most troops out of Afghanistan, the ADAPT course has been made to, well, adapt. With the military’s shift now on to the PACOM, the ADAPT course

or Africa.

“Iraq was an invasion and in Africa I was in an office,” he said.

But the training he’s received, he said, he’ll take with him when he deploys to Africa again this December.

“I’ll know what I’m looking for, ‘oh, they are farming,’ as opposed to driving a Humvee through and ruining it,” Schilling said.

Showing that they understand the farming system, interact with the farmers and appreciate the systems is a big benefit, explained Sommers.

still teaches service members that agriculture matters, though now with the goal to make them more effective primarily in terms of humanitarian and disaster relief.

“Our course emphasizes stability through food security,” Sommers said.

At the heart of the course material is how to prevent potential instability in a region through food security, learning how to stem hillside erosion so that the food system doesn’t collapse, recovery methods after a disaster — essentially, how does the military help get farming families back on their feet as soon as possible.

“We don’t train them to be agriculturalists or veterinarians,” said Sommers. “But we do give them a heads up.”

Following the course, which is typically three to five days, service members, mostly in civil affairs commands,

go back to their units where they could face deployment at any given time to respond should a typhoon or other natural disaster hit Vietnam or anywhere else that falls in the Asia-Pacific region of the PACOM. The course has trained more than 1,000 service members from around the country in the last couple of years, he said. Not a lot by military numbers, Sommers added, but then again, the course is done in smaller groups that allows for more hands-on training.

Sommers, who lives in Encinitas and volunteers at the garden, has hosted training events with the Botanic Garden several times before.

He holds degrees in both agricultural and nutritional sciences and spent 35 years working overseas in more than 55 countries.

“I’ve had a lot of oppor-

tunities to work with farming systems in insecure areas, secure areas,” said Sommers.

He said a number of the farmers he’s worked with overseas believe in resilience and stability.

“That’s part of their DNA, because government reach in most of these countries for services is very poor.

They’re out there on their own anyway.”

The garden volunteers its grounds to the training program. But the garden does receive some benefit, too, in the way of having some extra “yard work” done around the property.

“The garden has always been pretty sensitive to the fact that here in San Diego County, the military is a big part of our population, active and retired,” said Julian Duval, president and CEO of the Botanic Garden.
