High school district music changes strike a sour note

BY MARSHA SUTTON Sudden changes to the San Dieguito Union High School District music program have caused confusion and consternation among many students, parents and music supporters, some of whom are alarmed that the new regulations will harm the award-winning program. To meet the district’s requirement for two years of physical educa-

tion in both middle school and high school, many music students opted to take Independent Study Physical Education after school, which allowed them to take foreign language and music as their two electives. Music students can still sign up for ISPE as an “extra” class, but the way ISPE will be administered is changing. In the past, music

teachers received a log from students periodically, which showed that kids exercised a certain number of hours each week, said Rick Schmitt, SDUHSD’s associate superintendent of educational services. Parents signed off on their children’s physical activity program, which often consisted of walking, jogging, surfing or other unsupervised activity. Music teachers ac-

cepted the parental verifications. Schmitt said this is not legitimate, noting that a parent can’t supervise an internship or sign off on English or math for example. He said the same rules apply to PE, and the ISPE statute is clear. “Music teachers can’t be giving credit for PE,” he said. “You must have it supervised by a professional, and they

we’re moving it to a supervised program,” he said. So, beginning this fall, incoming seventhgrade students at the district’s four middle schools and all Canyon Crest Academy and San Dieguito Academy high school students can no longer have parents and music teachers sign off on ISPE.

After a closed meeting held May 16, the Del Mar Union School District board released the following statement regarding its search for a new superintendent to replace retiring superintendent James Peabody: “During the last two years the Del Mar Union School District has been working through a strategic management process that has clearly defined its vision, mission and long-term goals, along with the actions to achieve them. By providing a nurturing, inspiring, and rigorous educational experience for each of our students, the district has

moved forward with a renewed purpose and energy. “The Board believes that to sustain the momentum that has been created the district needs to have continuity in leadership with someone who understands the culture of the district and the intricacies of the strategic management plan. In addition, they are looking for a professional leader who can communicate the district’s vision to all stakeholders. “The Board realizes that this is the most important decision they will make and

must have a million-dollar liability.” Schmitt said other school districts have been sued after students were injured during ISPE under the supervision of non-professionals. The district is legally vulnerable, he said, because schools give credit for ISPE. “We’re not going to allow any more unsupervised kids doing this because we’re liable, so

When former Rhode Island Congressman Patrick Kennedy was charged with driving while intoxicated on Capitol Hill in 2006, he said he was told not to talk about it. “But I talked about it wherever I went, and my constituents told me they were finally glad to talk about these issues,” said Kennedy, who was first elected to Congress at 21, the youngest House Representative in history. “I still

ran for Congress and got reelected by the largest plurality in any election I’ve run in so far — 70 percent.” Kennedy, a nephew to the late President John F. Kennedy, ended his 15-year Congressional career in 2011 to dedicate his life to spreading awareness about mental health in order to end the stigma and advocate for mental health insurance payouts. He made a visit to the Del Mar Hilton on May 22 to speak at an International Bipolar Foundation event and present a group of

local Girl Scouts with their Mental Health Awareness Patches, which they earned by doing an extensive amount of outreach and research on mental health stigma. “The way we stop stigma is to start with the young, impressionable minds before they get fixated that people should feel ashamed of their illness,” Kennedy said. “They are the

Roberts campaign gaining steam from both sides of political spectrum • District 3 Supervisor candidate aims to be familiar face in community Editor’s note: This is the third article in a weekly series profiling the candidates in the District 3 County Supervisor race. The candidates for the District 3 seat include Dave Roberts, Carl Hilliard, Steve Danon, Stephen Pate and Bryan Ziegler. BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

Under California state law, paid public office holders must collect their salaries, and Solana Beach City Council members are paid $600 per month for the hours of service they dedicate to the city. But being employed full-time in addition to his role as deputy mayor, Dave Roberts saw charitable donations as a better use of that money. “My mom and dad taught me that it was better to give than to receive and I want to set the example for our five young children,” said Roberts, who has donated more than $50,000 in salary pay to local and regional charities such as the Boys and Girls Clubs of San Dieguito and Casa de Amistad. Being a leader, not only to his family and community, but on the political front is a driving force behind Roberts’ campaign to become the next District 3 County Supervisor. Voters are waking up to how critical this race is, Roberts said, not only because the winner will be the first new member on the Board of Supervisors in 15 years — and in District 3 in 20 years — but because, due to a recent change in term limits, the entire board will turn over within the next decade. Even though the supervisor seat is non-partisan, Roberts, the only Democratic candidate, could bring a different perspective to the all-Republican board. This could change the climate of the board as it turns over, and Roberts, who would also be the first ever openly gay man elected to the board, could be a leader in that change. “I’ll be the first one there starting this dialogue and talking to potential board colleagues,” Roberts said, adding that he has already gotten started in the job by meeting with current supervisors to discuss and learn about the issues facing District 3.

Dave Roberts Despite his more liberal political affiliation, Roberts said one of his assets is that he gets along with everyone and unites people from across political spectrums. He’s received endorsements from former San Diego City Councilwoman Donna Frye on the left to former Bush Administration U.S. Secretary for Veterans Affairs James Peake on the right. “When [Peake] endorsed me, he said ‘I’ve never endorsed a Democrat in my life, but Dave, if you’re a Democrat then I must be a Democrat too because this isn’t about being Democrat or Republican, it’s about serving veterans in San Diego County,’” Roberts said of Peake, who is also a former Army surgeon general. Possibly his most valuable blessing, Roberts has also garnered the endorsement of current District 3 Supervisor Pam Slater-Price, who will leave her seat at the end of the year. “People don’t see me as a political person; they see me as a community leader,” said Roberts. “This is a non-parti-

san race … San Diego is a majority Democratic county, but there’s no Republican or Democratic way to fill a pothole or solve a problem in San Diego County.” When Roberts strolled into Solana Beach’s Java Depot for a recent interview, at least a handful of waves and handshakes came his way. “This is Dave Roberts country,” said Brian Fuller, the coffee shop’s owner. Local businessman Jim Harker, who’s lived in Solana Beach since the 1950s, eagerly approached Roberts and, with a pat on the back, said “I’m afraid we will miss you here on the City Council.” To locals, it may seem as if Roberts is everywhere at once. He drops into numerous events a day with campaign manager Roger Boyd, a longtime Solana Beach resident who got to know Roberts years ago from inviting him in for dinner with his wife, Mary Jane, while Roberts was walking door to door campaigning for City Council. Roberts said he sees the campaign process as a vital time to connect with the community. That’s why he has taken a sabbatical from his job as vice president of government relations for the Health Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS), a cause-based organization focused on the optimal use of information technology in healthcare, to dedicate time to his campaign. In his personal life, Roberts also stays busy with his five adopted children. “It’s been 20 years since there hasn’t been an incumbent on the ballot, so one of the things people want is a leader who’s out in the community, visible, accessible and connected to a number of activities going on,” Roberts said. “I think a lot of people are wondering, ‘Who’s this guy Pam Slater-Price has endorsed?’ and when people get to know me they seem very supportive. When people meet me, I feel like they will vote for me.” May 29 is the last day to request a vote-by-mail ballot and June 5 is Election Day.

Jenna Druck Center founder looks at ‘Real Rules of Life’ New book provides practical advice on coping with life’s obstacles BY KELLEY CARLSON CONTRIBUTOR

Life’s paths often contain occasional bumps, but sometimes, a person will stumble upon a huge sinkhole. Dr. Ken Druck, one of the nation’s pioneers in personal transformation, offers advice on how to deal with such obstacles in his new book, “The Real Rules of Life: Balancing Life’s Terms With Your Own.” “This book is about how life really is,” Druck said. “When we get real, we move ahead, move forward ... we become a better, higher expression of ourselves.” Each of the 23 chapters describes one of the “real” rules, and provides practical suggestions and exercises to cope. “Some (exercises) are fun, and some are very revealing right to the core,” Druck said. “I make all the issues actionable.” For example, in the chapter titled “Listening Is Love,” readers learn how and why it is important to tune in to others’ words and actions. They’re directed to an online “report card” to assess the effectiveness of their own skills; in turn, they can ask their friends and family to rate them, and then compare results. In another section, labeled “There Are No Deals: Life’s Real Terms,” people come to terms with the fact that life always has its say, and sometimes they’re forced to go to Plan B, Druck said in an interview. “We don’t get to play God,” he explained, and added the people must live with a sense of humility and flexibility. At the end of the chapter, individuals must recall the “deals” they have made with life, and are then asked to seek an outside perspective. The book is for anyone facing challenges and transitions; it could be relevant to people going through a divorce, a business failure, or parenting a child who is strung out on drugs. It’s also

for those who have reached the point in their lives when it’s time for a change, such as starting a business they have always wanted, changing jobs, or drawing the line with family. Druck said these rules apply equally to organizations, individuals, families, couples and communities. “I thought I’d take the distilled essence of everything I’ve learned, how to survive significant life loss, and write a book,” he said. The Del Mar resident drew much of his inspiration from his experience dealing with the sudden, unexpected death of his 21-year-old daughter, Jenna, in 1996. Jenna, a graduate of Torrey Pines High School, was killed in a bus accident in India while studying abroad with the Semester at Sea program. “The death of my oldest daughter still defies words,” Druck said. “I had absolutely no map when my daughter died. Nothing prepared me.” One of his ways to deal with the situation was to establish the Jenna Druck Center, which serves teen girls and bereaved families through the award-winning Families Helping Families and Spirit of Leadership programs. Also in the book, Ken Druck includes anecdotes from people he has worked with during his 35 years as a coach and consultant. Among his specialty areas are male psychology, executive coaching, organizational consulting, parent effectiveness, healing after loss, and the art of turning adversity into opportunity. Druck has been featured numerous times in print and broadcast media — making appearances on programs such as “Oprah” and “Larry King Live” — and has received honors such as the Visionary Leadership, Distinguished Contribution in Psychology, and Family Advocate awards. Over the years, Druck has met thousands of families struggling to deal with catastrophes such as 911, the Columbine (Colo.) and

Dr. Ken Druck Santana (Santee) high school shootings, Hurricane Katrina and the San Diego wildfires. In addition, he helped Chelsea King’s family through the ordeal of their daughter’s murder. In 2010, 17-year-old Chelsea disappeared after going for a run in Rancho Bernardo Community Park, and her lifeless body was later found next to Lake Hodges. Druck said people from all over the world had been contacting him for help, so a couple of years ago, he began contemplating another way to touch more lives and hearts. He found that when he wrote, he reached many more individuals. Druck had previously penned books such as “The Secrets Men Keep” and “How to Talk to Your Kids About School Violence,” and had contributed to the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series. Subsequently, he pulled back from day-to-day operations at the Jenna Druck Center and hired staff to help run the programs while he focused on a new publication. Originally about 500 pages, “The Real Rules of Life” was cut down to just over 200 pages, Druck said. It “was written with the reader in mind to make it easy to read without a lot of psychobabble,” he said. “It’s very point-blank and truthful.” The book was finally released May 15. “It feels like a birthing,” Druck said. “The due date is here, and I really feel like it arrived on time. It’s time to send it out to the world, as it draws its first breath. “I put my heart and soul into it,” he added. Druck’s new book is a must-have for everyone’s library, said Martha Lawrence, executive editor at The Ken See DRUCK, Page 17

A Place for Carmel Valley to Gather Before planning a single building, we set out to better understand the community’s needs and priorities. We spoke with thousands of neighbors and residents and took note of their ideas and suggestions. Over and over, we heard that Carmel Valley needs a central gathering place for local residents with a mix of compatible uses, including a specialty grocery store. We believe a truly successful Main Street can only come from close collaboration with the community. Over the years, we have made numerous changes to the plans based on feedback we received from neighbors and local residents, and we continue to make changes.

MUSIC continued from page 1 up for ISPE, as an additional class, but it must be with a licensed professional who carries liability insurance. The ISPE policy change will not affect this fall’s eighth-graders and students at Torrey Pines High School and La Costa Canyon High School until the 2013-2014 school year. Licensed professionals can include insured professional coaches, but Schmitt said ISPE students don’t have to be athletes. Participation in any community organization such as the YMCA or Boys & Girls Club, which offers scholarships, is also acceptable. “The only thing that’s different is we’re not allowing music teachers to sign off on PE,” he said. The application period for ISPE opened on April 6 and closes Aug. 17. The goal, a district letter states, is for all students to take regular PE, but the district recognizes that Independent Study

PE might be more appropriate for several categories of students: exceptionally gifted athletes, students wanting to take an advanced course not offered by the district, students with an impacted schedule, those with medical conditions, and those who have already fulfilled their PE requirement. Music students, Schmitt said, are considered to have impacted schedules. A district website with a six-minute video tutorial guides students through the ISPE registration process [www.sduhsd.net/parents_ students/ispe.htm]. One flick of a pen Schmitt said he and his staff began developing the plan last fall and solidified it in Jan. Many parents were surprised to hear about the new policy, learning of the change only after their children registered for 20122013 classes in March and April. In mid-April, when alarm bells went off

throughout the music community, the district held meetings with principals, counselors, staff members, music booster leaders and the public to explain the policy and provide clear instructions to help music students register – in some cases, re-register – for classes. “We’ve spent the last month communicating the information,” Schmitt said. Charlotte Goldstein, a Carmel Valley Middle School parent whose son will be attending Canyon Crest Academy this fall as a ninth-grader, said she understands the goal was not to destroy the music program but believes the change will nonetheless have a deleterious effect. “The worst crime the district did was not communicating,” said Goldstein. She said district staff did not understand nor explain the change adequately, causing many students to drop music and enroll in regular PE. She also worried that many high-achieving students who take private music lessons and may also play in youth orchestras will no longer take music in school, because the new ISPE sign-up system is complex and they may be reluctant to add another structured after-school activity to an already over-burdened schedule. This, she said, would lower the quality of the overall program and make it less fulfilling for younger students to join. Libby Scott, one of the original members of a movement that brought music instruction back to San Dieguito schools in the late 1990s, also expressed concern. “When I heard that SDUHSD had to make the changes for Band PE, my heart stopped,” Scott said in an email. “The entire community worked so hard all those years ago to bring music back to the schools and, with one flick of a pen and a miscommunication, [this] could totally undermine everything we did and bring it to a screeching halt.” Scott praised Schmitt for saying that “all deadlines are in pencil for band kids and that no music student will be left behind.” She also agreed the new policy is needed “but just not on this timeline,” suggesting a oneyear delay in implementing the new policy. She also suggested an expedited, simplified ISPE sign-up process. “I don’t think it is fair that music

students should have to spend such an inordinate amount of time and effort to sign up for a class that should be part of the curriculum,” she said. Award-winning programs Distressed over the lack of music in local schools, parent activists Patti Malmuth and Libby Scott met in 1996 with dozens of music supporters to form the Foundation to Advance Music Education. Three years later, FAME’s efforts paid off. Today, the district’s music programs are considered some of the best in San Diego County, with over 1,400 SDUHSD music students and music teachers at every school. “The breakthrough came when the San Dieguito Union High School District agreed to partner with the Boys & Girls Club to offer Independent Study PE credit to students wanting to take band/music,” Malmuth said in an email. Scott said there is no room for music, PE and foreign language in students’ schedules. “In SDUHSD, most students feel compelled to take foreign language … to go to college,” she said. ISPE offered a way around the dilemma. But music supporters say the new policies threaten the future of music in the district, primarily because the lack of adequate and timely information about the new ISPE option may have affected music students’ course selections. “The changes to the registration process occurred so late in the game that no one knew what to do nor how to do it,” Scott said. “The paperwork was incorrect and did not mention the ISPE music option that was available.” Students have already registered, with no way to contact them, she said. The district cannot mail a signup form to students, “as that would put them in a situation where they were ‘advertising’ an elective,” she said. Another hurdle, Scott said, is that the new ISPE regulations will cost families money and demand a greater time commitment. “The kids need to find a fully insured physical education program outside of the district … [and] find time for it in their busy schedules,” she said. Lastly, she said the new procedure to sign up for ISPE is arduous, noting that after-school club sports cannot count for ISPE. “The pa-

perwork needed to sign up for ISPE,” Scott said, “is so difficult that some parents and students might look at it and just decide it’s too much of a pain to do.” Scott said the origins of Band PE came from marching band, which allowed music students to get physical exercise while learning and playing music. Sharilyn Parr, parent of an incoming seventh-grader at Earl Warren Middle School, agreed, saying, “Somewhere along the way, the schools stopped marching band. In my view, this was the big mistake, especially in a school like Torrey Pines that has a big emphasis on sports.” Marching band, Parr said, also gave non-athletic kids a way to participate in football games and other high school sporting events, and suggested the district “return a marching band program to the schools so kids can get their exercise and their music at the same time.” Parr said she was not against the policy change because she believes the prior policy was wrong. “Children shouldn’t be able to get out of PE by doing band,” she said. But she did say the new policy “will really hurt the music program.” Scott said the district is allowing an extra course per semester for music students and Schmitt gets “a gold star” for “going beyond the call of duty” to keep the program successful. An ardent music advocate, she remains concerned about the risk to the music program, though, saying the ISPE policy change blind-sided everyone. “Not only does music education provide all of the obvious benefits, but also provides students the manner in which to think creatively and communally,” Scott said. “It’s something like learning a foreign language and performing – a living art form – all together. There is absolutely nothing like it.”

most important audience.” Kennedy has long been a pioneer for mental health — he’s responsible for introducing legislation to place mental illness under the umbrella of health insurance — and he has been affected by mental health issues in both his own life and indirectly through the lives of his family members and fellow colleagues in Congress. Kennedy mentioned that just last week his cousin, Mary Richardson Kennedy, committed suicide, and he spoke about how several fellow members of Congress confided in him when he returned to Capitol Hill after his alcohol addiction recovery. “They’d tell me how their spouse wanted to commit suicide, how their daughter had an eating disorder, how they themselves battled addiction,” said Kennedy. “They told me all this in confidence.” But it was all those same politicians, Kennedy said, who voted against legislation supporting mental health reform. “They said, ‘Patrick, I come from a different part of the country than you. I’m in the buckle of the Bible belt, and if anyone in my district thinks someone in my family has a mental illness, I’m not going to get reelected like you get re-elected,” Kennedy said.

Kennedy said even though the Mental Health Parity Act of 1996 is on the books, still too many people are being denied insurance reimbursement because illnesses of the brain are often considered elective, like cosmetic surgery. The solution, he said, lies in combating stigma to have better overall acceptance and implementation of the law. He compared the issue to America’s mid-century civil rights movement. “The notion that in 2012 we still allow people to be sent to the colored water fountain is familiar to those in the mental health movement,” Kennedy said. “Mental health is treated differently than health care, when mental health care needs to be part of everyday screening just like any physical illness.” For more information on the Bipolar Foundation, visit www.internationalbipolarfoundation.org.

Bazaar del Mundo restaurant coming to Del Mar Highlands in former Red Robin location The lease is signed and planning is underway for a new restaurant for Mexican cuisine aficionados and families at Del Mar Highlands Town Center from Diane Powers’ Bazaar del Mundo Restaurant Group. The new restaurant will take the former Red Robin space and is expected to open in spring 2013. In keeping with its sister restaurants, Casa de Pico in La Mesa, Casa Guadalajara in Old Town and Casa de Bandini in Carlsbad, the new family-friendly entity will serve authentic, regional Mexican cuisine. “We work hard to cultivate tenants who have San Diego origins,” said Elizabeth Schreiber, vice president and general manager for Donahue Schriber, owner and operator of Del Mar Highlands Town Center. “We’re thrilled to welcome Diane Powers’ latest venture to our line-up of top restaurants, as she continues her history of creating beautiful restaurants and delicious Mexican cuisine for families all over San Diego County.” The building will undergo a complete renovation and expansion, and reflect Powers’ sense of design that uniquely captures the spirit of Mexico.

San Diego Jewish Academy (SDJA) student Melissa Fagan received first place May 18 at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in Pittsburgh, Penn. Seven million students compete annually to receive an invitation to Intel as it is considered the top high school science competition in the world. Placing first at Intel is an enormous accomplishment. Simply being invited to Intel is an achievement as only 1,549 students were invited this year, but receiving a first place award means the recipient is in the top .000005 percent of science students worldwide. Intel gives only two first place awards in each of the 17 categories it judges. There are Melissa Fagan (left) and a friend setting up better odds of becoming a pro-athlete or her display at the Intel Science Fair. winning an Academy Award than there are for placing first at Intel. “Melissa’s success at Intel is a testament to her hard work and dedication, but also speaks volumes about the quality of her teacher, Dr. Jane Willoughby, and the curriculum and faculty at SDJA,” said Dr. Jeff Davis, principal of the upper school at SDJA. Fagan’s project, The Creation of Alginate Microparticles as a Novel Drug Delivery Vehicle, received first place in the microbiology category. She received a total of $16,000 in scholarships, which included special awards from the Office of Naval Research and Air Force Research Laboratory. In her project, Fagan sought to reduce the toxicity of silver in medical treatments. Silver is increasingly being used as an antiseptic and disinfectant to treat chronic wounds such as burns. Antibiotic resistant infections are becoming more prevalent in hospitals, which is causing an increase in the use of silver. The challenge of using silver is that it rapidly converts into inactive silver, which causes a need for frequent re-applications. Due to the re-applications, it is used in large concentrations, where it can be toxic to humans. Fagan embedded silver based antimicrobials into alginate particles, which is the cell wall of brown seaweed, and was able to deliver the silver particles in smaller sustained doses. This helped alleviate the problem of toxicity and has the potential to save the medical industry millions of dollars. When asked about how she felt about her first place finish at Intel, Fagan responded, “Obviously I am still in shock, but it was really cool to be surrounded by 34 of the smartest kids in the country.” For more information on San Diego Jewish Academy, visit www.sdja.com.

Community â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;play dateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; raises money for a special fifth-grader BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET

If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anything that makes Solana Beach special, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the entire community coming together to help raise money for one standout kid to go on a study abroad trip this summer. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what happened recently for Rubie Wexler, an Eden Gardens resident who was chosen by People to People to represent Southern California as a Student Ambassador. Rubie, a 5th grade student at Skyline Elementary, is one of 28 delegates nationwide to get to go on a study abroad program throughout Western Canada in July. In order to make the trip possible, her family came together to plan a â&#x20AC;&#x153;community play dateâ&#x20AC;? on May 20 at La Colonia Park to help raise money for the trip. More than 350 attended the public event, which featured hula dancers, a magic show, zumba, a bake walk, face painting, shaved ice, funnel cakes and a variety of local vendors. All proceeds from sales, a raffle and silent auction also benefited Rubieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endeavor, said her mom, Lisa Wexler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a big family and we love parties,â&#x20AC;? said Wexler of the event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So I decided weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just going to throw it all out there and make a bam out of this.â&#x20AC;? Wexler said she is so proud of her daughter and that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no surprise Ruby was chosen for this honor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you meet Ruby, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

just so amazing,â&#x20AC;? said Wexler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not even an all â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; student, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A-Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; student and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a big heart. She helps the kids and she helps the staff â&#x20AC;Ś If someone gets hurt on the playground, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the one who will help, even if everyone else walks away.â&#x20AC;? Wexler said Rubie, who wants to be a veterinarian someday, is the type that will speak her mind, yet sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very caring â&#x20AC;&#x201D; â&#x20AC;&#x153;a good, well-rounded little girl.â&#x20AC;? On Rubieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two-week study abroad, she will travel to different Canadian cities and learn about the history and customs of each along the way. Rubie has also been selling homemade â&#x20AC;&#x153;Salsaliciousâ&#x20AC;? salsa made by her aunt, Margie Mongenel, for months to raise money for the trip. Mongenel runs a food truck called Margieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Shuck Wagon, which serves up roasted corn, loaded baked potatoes, corn salsa and a number of other Mexican food-inspired dishes at local farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; markets and private events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The big picture is to fund this trip for Rubie, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also about bringing together the community,â&#x20AC;? said Wexler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought it would be good to help local businesses drum up some support.â&#x20AC;? To contact the Wexlers or to purchase homemade salsa to benefit Rubie for $5 per jar, call (858) 794-0916.

Three local juniors receive Yale Club of San Diego Book Award Carmel Valley residents Melodyanne Cheng of Torrey Pines High School, Melody Jung of Canyon Crest Academy, and Xavier Redondo of St. Augustine High School, all juniors, were among 16 San Diego County high school students who received the 2012 Yale Club of San Diego Book Award at a private ceremony on May 20. This is the 10th year that the Yale Club of San Diego has presented the award—a certificate from the Yale Club of San Diego and a book published by Yale University Press that was selected for this year’s winners. Each student honored with the award received The Bridge at the End of the World: Capitalism, the Environment, and Crossing from Crisis to Sustainability, by James Gustave Speth, Dean of the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies at Yale, and a graduate of Yale Law School. His book, bearing a Yale Book Award bookplate, was chosen for the “Wideranging interest among high school students in issues pertaining to the environment and sustainability,” said Robert Longstreth, San Diego Superior Court Judge and a member of the 2012 Yale Club of San Diego Book Award committee. “We can’t solve [today’s environmental] problems with more of the same approaches we’ve been using,” stated Author Speth. “Real solutions will require transformative change in the key features of this contemporary capitalism.” “And today’s young people are the ones most likely to come up with those changes,” Longstreth added. The other award-winning students and their high schools are: Thomas Edman, La Jolla Country Day School; Nicholas Ferreirae, San Dieguito Academy; Nicholas Kelly, Patrick Henry High School; Melissa Kolenovic, Point Loma High School; Dillon Lerach, Pacific Ridge School; Micah Lyle, Santa Fe Christian; David Mrdjenovich, Mt. Carmel High School; Emily Nyguen, The Bishop’s School; Julianne Preimesberger, Cathedral Catholic High School; Wright Smith, Coronado High School; Brandon Solis, Chula Vista High School; Brian Thuyen, University City High School;Kenneth Xu, Scripps Ranch High School; The Yale Club of San Diego Book Award was created to recognize outstanding high school students.

‘The way you live your life is important because you don’t know when it will be over’ This column presents “Patriot Profiles” to provide readers insight into the lives of our country’s heroes. BY JEANNE MCKINNEY She was just a child in Bangkok, Thailand, when she was exposed to a shocking scene during the Vietnam War. Her father, an American Air Force officer, was stationed at Dong Muang Air Base and would take her and her brother into the office with him. One day, a plane landed and she watched as body bags were unloaded, one after another. Her father told her to never forget that “young people are the ones who bear the brunt of war.” This distinctive childhood memory was present years later, in 1993, when she answered a handsome young officer’s proposal with, “Ask me to marry you again when we’re not in a war zone.” Earlier, in 1990, they had met in Puerto Rico – she on a drug interdiction assignment for the Air Force and he, her Navy counterpart. “I didn’t particularly like him at first — he wasn’t my type.” However, she admired that he was hard-charging and had a plan and soon began to fall in love. For Lieutenant Hal Pittman, it was immediate attraction for this dark-haired beauty. “She was

outgoing, fun and adventurous.” Another assignment called her away from Puerto Rico and Hal. Ahead, a noble legacy was to continue. Rebecca Lynn Feaster is a descendent of generations of American military service members, starting with the Continental Army, to later include Confederate forces, and she is African-American. Rebecca says, “If you really love your country, you serve it. With greatness comes sacrifice. It’s not just about taking and taking.” Because she’s spent so much time overseas — her entire life entwined with the military — she believes, “This is the greatest country on the planet. To be born in the United States, you’re in the top 5 percent of the world’s population in relation to accessible resources and opportunities.” With this, she considers, “How do you give and live your life so it’s an exemplary one?” Rebecca’s father, a retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, joined the military because he was a black man in the 1950s who had a college degree and few chances to use it in civilian society.

Her sister Hilary is an Air Force Lt. Colonel on the rise, currently serving in Afghanistan. Rebecca and her siblings learned from their father to do the right thing, work hard, and to pursue something they had a passion for. After attending middle and high schools in Wethersfield, Conn., Rebecca considers herself blessed to have received her commission through an ROTC scholarship that helped her earn an economics degree at Tufts University. From there she joined the Air Force as a munitions officer, but it wasn’t her passion. Thankfully, a senior officer allowed Rebecca to change career fields and get into public affairs. Rebecca and Hal’s careers crossed again during deployments to the Gulf and Saudi Arabia in 1992. “Our paths were going to collide, no matter what geography was between us.” So after a two-and-a-half-year courtship, when somehow they knew “the time was right,” she left the Air Force and became a Navy wife. Rebecca has been with Rear Admiral Pittman most

there’s a potential suicide bomber threat in this hotel and we have to put mattresses on the windows. Can I call you back?” “He was so kind and sweet and loving,” which made her think, “Oh no, the last thing this man’s going to hear from me is this horrifying rant.” She hung up the phone and was scared. In 2004, Hal, then based at Central Command, was with General Abizaid’s team visiting an Iraqi police station in Fallujah when a handful of snipers attacked. Rebecca heard from one of Hal’s mentors at the Pentagon, “We think everything is fine. If there were [American] injuries, we’d know about them.” But there were hours

wondering if her husband was safe. Later, Hal emailed asking if they had enough life insurance on him. Rebecca says, “We [in the military] have to prepare for doing this life without our soul mates.” Rebecca’s own mother has been a role model on making the most of hard situations. Rebecca has turned trials to triumphs with a self-made business. Utilizing her master’s degree in international public policy from John Hopkins University and years working in public affairs, she works with executive and community groups across the U.S. on how to SEE PATRIOT, PAGE 17

of his career. She tells young women, “If you’re thinking of marrying someone in the military, this life is not for everyone.” There are career and school shifts, quick moves, financial cutbacks, months of separation, and daily frustrations. She adds, “You’ll often be a single parent. You won’t hear from them every day and when they come back you have to step into a secondary role on how to run things and that takes huge adjustments.” The October 2000 suicide bombing of the guided missile destroyer, the USS Cole, was a refining fire in more ways than one for Rebecca. “My husband called from the Pentagon saying, “There’s been a terrible accident. Sailors are dead. I’ve got to go.” I was in grad school, we had a newborn that was teething and replied, “You’ve got to be kidding me?” Rear Admiral Pittman was sent to the grizzly bombing scene in Yemen with the Foreign Emergency Support Team (FEST) when he got a call at his hotel. Rebecca relates, “I was having an extremely frustrating day telling him, ‘I don’t like the military. I hate the Navy and I can’t believe you’re there.’ He said to me in the calmest voice, “Listen, you’re doing a great job at home. Now,

Celtic bridal shower held in Del Mar

BY SHANTI MAYBERRY Sixteen women gathered in Del Mar on April 21 for a “HighTea” Celtic bridal shower to celebrate the engagement of Jennifer Mayberry and Joe La Manna, who will be married this coming December at the Del Mar Powerhouse. The shower was given by Jenny’s mother, Shanti Mayberry, at the family home in Del Mar. Ceremonies of the day included a piano concert by grandmother Patricia Hill, followed by Celtic bridal blessings and the old English custom of wishing the couple good fortune, happiness and health with special gifts from Joe’s mother and sister of “something borrowed, something blue, something old and something new.” The grand finale after the champagne Jennifer Mayberry toast and gift presentations was a hilarious skit performed by entertainer Toby Prager who played Geszelda, a very wild fairy Godmother. The couple lives in Missoula, Montana, where Jennifer is executive director of Firesafe Montana and Joe is completing his Ph.D in wildlife biology and climate change at the university. He is the recipient of a three-year EPA star fellowship grant for his research on migratory songbirds and Aspen tree decline. They plan to spend their honeymoon birding, snorkeling and hiking in Belize and Guatemala. Both Jenny and Joe are proactive environmentalists and hope to do their part in protecting the Earth’s eco-systems.

Since 2002, San Diego Girl Scout troops and their cookie customers have sent more than 2 million boxes of America’s favorite cookies and countless notes of support to deployed troops serving in Afghanistan, Iraq, Africa, Japan, Korea, and the Persian Gulf, Western Pacific and Indian Ocean.

PATRIOT continued from page 14 handle crises. She delivers more than a dozen courses and her personal favorite (which is often requested) is about understanding Islam, backed by her studies and having lived as a Christian in Muslim countries such as Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Her love and joy is being part of the Feaster-Pittman team in support of their 13-year-old son Evan, unusually gifted in music and athletics. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll answer his momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s question about his day at school with, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not talk about school. What happened in the world today?â&#x20AC;?

May 24, 2012 The former young Navy Lieutenant describes his wife, the reluctant former Air Force officer as, â&#x20AC;&#x153;warm, open and kind, yet practical. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know anyone Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather hang out with.â&#x20AC;? She says marrying her persistent suitor was, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the very best decision Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever made. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m blessed to have him in my life.â&#x20AC;? Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re moving on to the next challenge as Rear Admiral Pittman retires. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We still have a son to get through college.â&#x20AC;? From a shocked little girl overseas to a woman contributing much to her country, Rebecca advises, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way you live your life is important because you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know when it will be over.â&#x20AC;?

DRUCK continued from page 5 Blanchard Cos. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I first read it when I was going through the darkest time in my life â&#x20AC;&#x201D; my son, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been missing for more than two years, had recently turned up in a psychiatric hospital,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book made me feel less alone in my despair and gave me hope that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;this too, shall pass.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Because Ken has lived through the worst â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the death of his daughter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he writes with authority about turning tragedy into transformation. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the wisest books Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever read.â&#x20AC;?

Now that his latest book has hit the shelves, Druck plans to conduct workshops and talk about â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Real Rules of Life.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be taking my message to different parts of the U.S. and world,â&#x20AC;? he said. In addition, he plans to remain an active member of the San Diego community. Druck is still involved with the Jenna Druck Center, on a lesser scale, and he has been a part of the San Dieguito Alliance for Drug Free Youth for 25 years. Another area of concern for him is youth violence prevention, for which he has created systems: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get real about the degree of vio-

lence,â&#x20AC;? he said. Druck also co-founded Community Leaders for Youth with businessman, speaker and author Stedman Graham and Quantum Learning Network President Bobbi DePorter. And Druck finds time for his family, which includes his â&#x20AC;&#x153;Earth daughter,â&#x20AC;? Stephanie, who lives in San Diego; his â&#x20AC;&#x153;angel daughter,â&#x20AC;? Jenna; and the 16,000 girls who have been a part of the Spirit of Leadership program at the Jenna Druck Center. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have spiritually adopted daughters everywhere,â&#x20AC;? Druck said of the diverse group. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are all fiercely determined, wonder-

ful, warm-hearted women who really ... make a positive difference.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fulfilling life for the author. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A broken heart doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a full heart,â&#x20AC;? Druck said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My life is a testament to that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full again â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m whole and alive.â&#x20AC;? His book â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Real Rules of Life,â&#x20AC;? which is listed for $24.95, is available in stores everywhere and through online sites such as Amazon.com; barnesandnobles.com; and Druckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web site, www.kendruck.com.

CANDIDATES continued from page 1 will make it being well informed. Therefore, they have met with parents, teachers (current and former), administrators (current and former), former Del Mar and other area board members as well as individuals at the San Diego County Office of Education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After careful consideration, the Board of Trustees has decided to consider internal candidates to fill the Superintendent position. Board Policy 2120 allows the Board to promote from within the district without doing a superintendent search. If at the end of that process they do not select a

candidate, they will immediately begin a comprehensive superintendent search.â&#x20AC;? The district said the board will announce June 6 if it has decided to hire an internal candidate and, if so, ratify a contract at the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s June 27 meeting. If an internal candidate is not found for the superintendent position, the board will start a â&#x20AC;&#x153;comprehensive searchâ&#x20AC;? at its June 27 meeting, with the goal of finding a new superintendent within four to six months. In that case, an interim superintendent will be appointed at the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s July 25 meeting.

Letters to the Editor/Opinion

One Paseo: Opportunity or Opportunism For all those who have waded through the voluminous Draft Environmental Impact Report for the proposed One Paseo development, “You can’t get there from here!” is no longer just the punch line of a joke. It is now a formal engineering assessment of future traffic circulation to and through the heart of our Carmel Valley community if this development is allowed to go forward on the massive scale proposed. Whether you’re a parent or student trying to get to school before first bell, or a business person trying to make an early morning meeting or get home for dinner with your family, your current commute will soon be lengthened dramatically. If the developer’s “If you build it, they [jobs] will come” rationale proves true, so will the final scene from the same movie (“Field of Dreams”): cars lined up for

miles at the Del Mar Heights Road freeway on- and offramps, transforming our community’s major thoroughfare into a parking lot several times a day. For those who support the project in its current form in hopes it will bring a favorite shopping destination such as Trader Joe’s closer, ask yourself this: does it really require building an additional half a million square feet of office space plus one million square feet of high rise residential and hotel to deliver what’s important to you? You can have your Trader Joe’s and much, much more within the 500,000 square feet the developer is already entitled to build. What do you gain by having him build four times that amount, aside from traffic congestion that will make you wish you had driven to Encinitas to shop? And if you’re anticipating pleasant strolls through

a much-publicized expansive community-gathering area, a small disappointment awaits you there too. Small as in the actual size of an area compressed by significant building and landscape setbacks. And instead of relaxing in blue sky and sunshine over one- to threestory buildings depicted in the developer’s renderings, you’ll be covered in pervasive shadows cast by the surrounding 8- and 10-story office and apartment buildings that are conveniently obscured in the developer’s renderings. But recently there are rays of hope. A growing number of your neighbors are working tirelessly analyzing the 4,000-page DEIR to expose the truths of this massive deception and rally support for meaningful community input. And a number of City Council members, having earlier been enticed by the developer’s siren song

of huge job creation potential, are now willing to look past Kilroy’s munificent political contributions to question whether One Paseo isn’t just a modern day version of “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” with promised opportunity being revealed as naked opportunism. What can you do? Despite Kilroy’s determination to by-pass the community in pursuing development plan approval, most of us, including citizen groups such as “What Price Main Street?” (www.whatpricemainstreet.com), still welcome the concept of One Paseo. What we and a growing core of residents oppose is the developer’s goal of “super-sizing” it into a homerun for its shareholders at the sacrifice of our community’s character and livability. We now have an opportunity to tell the San Diego Planning Commission and

City Council that One Paseo should be right-sized to a scale that will enable the developers to mitigate at least some of the traffic and other infrastructure overloads it creates. If you agree, please take a few moments to sign one of the petitions you’ll find in your neighborhood or on the website above. They simply request that the City Council direct the developer to go back to the community’s elected representative body, the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board, and modify its development plan to incorporate the goals of all parties. The time it will take to add your signature to this expression of community will is but a tiny fraction of the amount of additional time it will take you to navigate through our community if the project is approved in its proposed scale.

Fun facts about your June 5 ballot. Roseanne Barr is running for president, seeking the nomination of the Green Party. One candidate for the American-Independent nomination is named “Mad Max.” The Libertarians have NINE presidential candidates. Brian Bilbray’s daughter Briana, who supports medical marijuana, is a candidate for Republican County Committee. The Republican presidential ballot lists six contenders, including Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Santorum. Remember them? Once again, California’s late primary leaves the state with no meaningful voice in a presidential nomination. This frees my Republican friends to in-

dulge in whimsy and vote from their hearts, perhaps to write in Grover Norquist. I really miss Newt. Yes on 28. I oppose legislative term limits. They rob state legislatures of institutional memory and needed expertise — and they empower corporate lobbyists. This ballot measure does not undo term limits. It simply allows someone elected to the Assembly or the state Senate to serve all of his or her term-limited years in one house, thus reducing the number of Assembly members who run for the Senate. And it would encourage the development of skill and expertise in the workings of one house or the other — something sadly missing in Sacramento. Prop 28 also would reduce the total number of years one could serve in either or both houses from 14 to 12. The measure applies only to newly elected legislators. It would not extend the term of anyone currently serving. Yes on 29. The only opposition to this sensible public health measure comes from Big Tobacco ($30M) and some of the small businesses that sell cigarettes. Prop 29 raises

the tax on cigarettes and spends the money on cancer research. No on A. San Diego voters should reject this anti-labor initiative. Even anti-tax advocate Scott Barnett opposes it, because if it passes, San Diego will lose out on millions in state construction funds. No on B. This San Diego measure is part of Carl DeMaio’s campaign for mayor. It proposes to “fix” the pension crisis by ending fixed-benefit pensions and forcing future city employees, without the cushion of Social Security, into riskier 401-k retirement accounts. Independent analysis shows that this switch will cost the city money, not save money. Of the four mayoral candidates, only Bob Filner opposes this scape-goating plan to blame and punish city employees for a financial crisis they did not cause. Judges. After consultation with attorney friends, I am voting for Terrie Eileen Roberts, George Schaeffer, and Garland Peed. Gordon Clanton teaches Sociology at San Diego State University. He welcomes comments at gclanton@mail.sdsu.edu.

A recent letter stated that our rejection of One Paseo is like Marin County’s rejection of a Lucas Films Production company. Well, it’s not. Certainly Carmel Valley would welcome a Google or Microsoft business here – and indeed I would welcome a Lucas Films production company. Those kinds of companies would yield high paying professional jobs where employees would be able to afford our Carmel Valley homes and, indeed, embrace our CV culture and lifestyle, and live here. One

Paseo jobs will be low paying jobs, held by far away commuters. That same letter said Carmel Valley is missing a heart and that One Paseo would provide one. Building more office, hotel, and retail, along with increased traffic, does not make a heart. Like the Tin Man, we find our heart from within, and we have a heart. It’s our walk-to parks, bicycle friendly roads, our schools, and our children. Let’s not break it. Dave Wolfson Carmel Valley resident and business owner

Project height and density compromise warranted The Carmel Valley community is being asked to endorse a plan that is too dense for the neighborhood because the developer bought the land at the top of the market and needs to capture the economic return that they projected when they purchased the land thus the density increase request. We should not be held hostage in this manner. Yes it would be nice to have a development like Santana Row in our area. However, Santana Row’s ingress and egress is totally different than the access to

One Paseo. We do not need additional traffic lights in between High Bluff and El Camino Real. We also do not desire to see 10-story buildings along El Camino Real. The character of the area will vastly change as a result. I am not against mixed use development at that location. I am against the level of development proposed. A compromise in the height and density of the proposed project is warranted. Sara Isgur

Letters to the Editor/Opinion

TP planners release statement on One Paseo amendment The Torrey Pines Community Planning Board recently unanimously approved the following statement on the One Paseo Precise Plan Amendment: “The Torrey Pines Community Planning Board (TPCPB) is taking this opportunity to respond to the San Diego Development Services – Carmel Valley Employment Center, Unit Two, Precise Plan Amendment (PPA) for the One Paseo Project issued March 29, 2012. As a Responsible Agency, we believe it is our obligation to provide comments to Development Services and offer our opinion to our neighboring Carmel Valley Community Planning Board. The TPCPB reserves the right to amend,

under separate cover, this document as new details and research become available up until the end of the comment period ending May 29, 2012 or as part of the administrative record after public comment is closed. “The Torrey Pines Community Plan states, “the vision of this community plan is to provide the highest possible quality of life for residents and businesses while preserving the community’s unique natural environment. The TPCPB, as a duly elected agency, is responsible to both its current residents and future generations.“ The TPCPB hopes to direct the attention of Development Services and the Carmel Valley Planning Board to some of

the key impacts the zoning change proposed by the PPA will have on its neighboring community to the west. “The PPA requests a zoning change for a 23.6-acre lot, from CVPD-EC to CVPDMC, on the northeast portion of Unit 2. The TPCPB believes that this zoning change will have far-reaching negative impacts to both communities, and adjoining regions, that will not be mitigated. The PPA presents an attractive development concept but shows it as if the proposed 23.6-acre development stands in isolation. It does not. The failure of the PPA to address the impact of the proposal on its surroundings is a fatal flaw. “The PPA fails to recog-

nize the relationship of Carmel Valley to Torrey Pines. The PPA does not address the fact that many public facilities and safety services located in Carmel Valley also serve Torrey Pines. With increased traffic it is likely that police, fire, and emergency services will have a slowed response time to Torrey Pines. An increase in traffic will also hinder access for Torrey Pines residents to shared public facilities such as the library, recreation center, parks, elementary schools and high schools. Traffic may also be expected to flow onto Torrey Pines area residential streets at peak hours, although the PPA does not address this problem. Increased side-street traffic will

How to stop obesity before it starts BY DR. JEFFREY MASON AND DONNA PINTO We have heard time and again about our nation’s obesity epidemic, and one way we can tackle the crisis is to look at where it often begins — in childhood. In California alone, more than 30 percent of children ages 10 to 17 are obese or overweight. The national trend also is alarming — the obesity rate among children and adolescents has nearly tripled since 1980. Without immediate action, these children will likely become obese adults and a recent study indicates that this is an issue of life and death. Obese children are twice as likely as their healthy-weight peers to die from disease before age 55, according to the New England Journal of Medicine. In addition, obesity is also straining our national economy with America spending $147 billion in direct health care costs associated with poor diet and physical inactivity, according to the UnitedHealth Foundation’s 2011 America’s Health Ranking®. We cannot remain idle. That’s why UnitedHealthcare is supporting six organizations in Southern California to help fight the obesity epidemic, aided by a $1,000 grant to each group through the UnitedHealth HEROES program. More than 280 schools and community-based organizations

nationwide, including 12 in California, have received UnitedHealth HEROES grants to implement local, hands-on programs to fight childhood obesity in their communities. We are encouraging youth, parents, educators and members of the community to join us in this effort. It can be as simple as the program from SuperFood Drive and their “SuperKids for SuperFoods Program,” which empowers middle school youth to lead SuperFood Drives to benefit low-income communities in need of healthy food. SuperKids were presented a tote bag filled with nonperishable SuperFoods, recipe cards and coupons to inspire 1,200 students to eat healthy at a local “highneed” middle school. This spring, students taught their peers and families about healthy eating, nutrition, label reading and how to create healthy recipes. Here are additional ideas on how to help keep kids active and eating right: Nutrition • Have your kids help in the kitchen, packing a healthy lunch or making a nutritious dinner. • Have a basket of fruit and vegetables out for kids to snack on throughout the day. • Have your kids try one new food every week; you never know if your children will like eggplant if

they don’t try it! • Experiment with smoothies. Carrots, spinach, a handful of berries and some low-fat yogurt make a delicious and nutritious treat. Kids will think it’s dessert! Activities • Encourage your child to walk or bike to school. If you drive them, arrive early and take a walk around the school before starting the day or when you pick them up at the end of the day. • Some city recreation centers have indoor pools for a nominal fee. • If you belong to a gym, take your child with you. Many gyms have a childcare center with lots of activities to entertain

kids while mom and dad are working out. • Stretch your legs and go for a hike or a walk. It’s time to empower youth as problem-solvers in the fight against childhood obesity. If we work together as a community, we can achieve our common goal of helping our children’s generation overcome obesity.

have a direct impact on our residents as well as amplify the problem of egress and delayed emergency responses. “While we commend the PPA for offering to bring a “heart to Carmel Valley” the TPCPB believes that Carmel Valley already has a “heart” that the PPA ignores. Development Unit 9, 168 acres immediately to the east of the proposed zoning area, has been zoned as a “Town Center” since 1986. Hundreds of millions of dollars, both public and private, have gone into “mixed-use” development of retail space, high-density housing, and many public facilities, including schools, a library and a recreation center. The PPA

makes scant attempt to integrate its’ proposed village with the existing adjacent Carmel Valley designated Town Center. “The TPCPB believes that a multi-use project of the scale that the proposed zoning change would allow, up to 1,800,000 s.f. and more than 4,000 parking spaces, is simply too large and will have too may unmitigated negative consequences. The TPCPB urges that the zoning of the Carmel Valley Employment Center Unit 2 remain an Employment Center and that it be restricted to fulfilling its original purpose of providing 510,000 s.f. of commercial space.” Dennis Ridz,chair, Bob Shopes, secretary

Vote ‘No’ on fundamental changes to the area Why is there so much uproar about One Paseo? Undoubtedly because it will fundamentally change the Carmel Valley-Del Mar area forever! I don’t understand why there isn’t the same uproar over the proposed Del Mar Village Specific Plan! If you read it all, it will fundamentally change the small-town village of Del Mar forever! Why are the owners of One Paseo proposing such a fundamental change? Obviously only one reason – money, at the expense of everything else! Why is the Del Mar City Council proposing such a fundamental change? Obviously only one reason – money, at the expense of everything else! These are but two strong similarities of the two

proposed projects. Others include: Neither proposal was initiated, or requested by the public; both will, logically, create traffic, parking and pedestrian havoc (unless we all give up driving in favor of walking, bike riding and taking the bus); both will block views of surrounding residents; both are intended to replicate “a large European village” (all crammed in). There are many other similarities, if you think about it, and there is nothing wrong with making money, but do areas really have to fundamentally change forever to make money, at the expense of everything else? Let’s speak out and vote “No!” Ralph Peck Del Mar

Ireland’s ambassador to U.S. visits area Michael Collins touts Ireland as ‘European location for investment’ BY JOE TASH In the first-ever official visit to San Diego by Ireland’s ambassador to the United States, the diplomat told an audience of bio-tech executives at a breakfast meeting at the Grand Del Mar that, “despite all the travails and challenges, Ireland is very much open for business.” Ambassador Michael Collins came at the invitation of the Irish Network San Diego, a group of Irish-Americans whose mission is to foster connections between Ireland and the United States, and provide both social and business opportunities to Irish immigrants. The group’s president, Eilis McKay, and her husband, Neil, also a board member, are Rancho Santa Fe residents. Collins had a busy agenda of meetings and speeches during his visit, which began Sunday evening and concluded Monday. His day began Monday with the breakfast where he met with members of BIOCOM, an association of

Li t s

! ed

businesses in the life sciences. He spoke briefly with a reporter after his breakfast with the bio-tech executives, before departing for a midday speech at the Joan Kroc Center for Peace and Reconciliation at USD. Collins, who was part of the team that negotiated Ireland’s historic Good Friday peace accord in 1998, was scheduled to speak on “Contemporary Ireland and the Northern Ireland Peace Process.” Meetings with San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders and Police Chief William Landsdowne were scheduled before a Monday evening banquet back at the Grand Del Mar in Carmel Valley. Collins, who has held the ambassador’s post since 2007, said he has tried to visit most of the major U.S. cities during his tenure. One purpose for his visit, he said, was to support the local Irish-American community. But another key reason was to encourage investment in Ireland, which is trying to

recover from the global recession that has plagued much of Europe and the United States. “Ireland is a very strong manufacturing center for the bio-tech sector,” he said. “I’m here to encourage people to look at Ireland as a European location for investment.” As part of the European Union and a member of the Euro currency zone, Ireland offers access to a market of more than 500 million people, he said. Collins said nine of the 10 largest life sciences companies in the world already have operations in Ireland, and, “there’s room for plenty more. This area of Southern California has developed a strong footprint in the life sciences. We believe there are ways in which companies here can grow further through investment in Ireland.” Brian O’Callaghan, president and CEO of San Diegobased Sangart, and an attendee at Monday’s breakfast meeting, said Ireland offers a

number of advantages to U.S. companies, such as a 12.5 percent corporate tax rate, a pool of educated, English-speaking workers, lower labor costs and a strategic location relative to the European market. O’Callaghan said his company — which makes drugs that enhance the perfusion and oxygenation of ischemic (oxygen-deprived) tissues — plans to break ground soon on a factory in Cork, Ireland. O’Callaghan, who is also an Irish Network board member, said the message he heard from Collins was that Ireland is working its way out of the economic slump and that, “If you’re going to lay a bet, bet on Ireland.” Eilis McKay, who moved with her husband from Ireland to the U.S. nearly 30 years ago, said the local chapter of the Irish Network formed in 2008. “The purpose of the

Fiesta Del Sol steps up parking, food offerings for festival June 2-3

La Jolla Cultural Partners

BY CLAIRE HARLIN EDITOR@DELMARTIMES.NET Seven free parking lots, a double-decker shuttle bus and inexpensive pedi-cabs are just a few measures added to Fiesta Del Sol to make the 2012 celebration more accommodating than ever, organizers say. This year’s Fiesta Del Sol will be held in Solana Beach on Saturday, June 2, and Sunday, June 3. The Fiesta del Sol opens each morning at 9 a.m. with the arts and crafts fair and closes each evening at 9 p.m. after the conclusion of the last musical performance. With more than 50,000 festival-goers expected to attend, organizers at the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce put their heads together this year to find ways to mitigate parking, promote Solana Beach as a car-free vacation spot and get visitors to enjoy local businesses in addition to the festival. “We feel like we’ve accomplished all the goals we wanted,” said chamber President Carolyn Cohen. “It’s a huge effort and everyone is working really hard.” In addition to seven added free parking lots along South Sierra Avenue and Via de la Valle, the Amtrak and Coaster are offering two tickets for the price of one, and the chamber is offering free gift bags for those who come to the free festival via foot, bike or train. There will also be a designated bike parking area on Lomas Santa Fe adjacent to the train station. Bicycle pedi-cabs will be offering rides to and from the parking lots for $3 to $5 dollars a ride, depending on how far the lot is. During the previous 32 Fiesta Del Sol celebrations, attendees have not been enjoying the shops and restaurants of Solana Beach, Cohen said. This year, however, the chamber is working with a number of businesses along Highway 101, on Cedros Avenue, and in the

Another huge venture for Fiesta Del Sol organizers is a new partnership with Antengo, a company that is offering a smartphone application that will map out the festival, discounted stores, parking lots and food trucks, in addition to offering a detailed music schedule. Cohen said organizers are stepping up food offerings a notch, with a gourmet food truck festival taking place inside the festival itself. “Gourmet food trucks right now are the hottest thing,” said Cohen. “They make really incredible food and we wanted to upgrade our fiesta food.” Cohen said kid-friendly foods like kettle corn and Italian ice will still be available, but in the kids’ section of the fest.

New menu choices every two weeks tempts tastebuds at Mia Francesca BY KELLEY CARLSON hicago-based restaurant chain Mia Francesca recently brought its Midwestern hospitality to the Del Mar Highlands Town Center. From the moment guests enter the classically decorated establishment, until they’re amply filled with Italian fare and ready to head home, the staff makes an effort to learn each person’s name and tastes. “We like guests to feel at home,” said Scott Harris, executive chef and owner. “We’re very welcoming people.” First established in the Windy City in 1992, Mia Francesca can now be found in five states, and the Del Mar site is the 24th to open. The local eatery — just months old — attracts a range of customers, from those donning shorts and T-shirts to others sporting suits. Children are welcomed with crayons and a menu offering items such as pizza, pasta and grilled chicken. Babies are given bibs with the phrase “I ate at Francesca’s.” In addition, kids eat free on Mondays. There are several seating areas to accommodate singles, couples and groups of all sizes; parties of 15 or more can even participate in Tavoli di Amici (Table of Friends), family-style dining with several courses. Two rooms comprise the elegant main dining areas, which feature chandeliers, wood floors, and tables draped in white cloth. Guests can admire sepia-toned photos capturing scenes in Italian villages, shot by Paul Elledge, or gaze outside at a fountain

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant at delmartimes.net. Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story. This week: ■ Mia Francesca’s Linguine Arlecchino through floor-to-ceiling windows that also serve as doors. A TV in the bar provides sports programming. The shaded patio can be a respite from the summer sun, yet there are heaters and glass walls that help block the breeze on chillier days. On Friday and Saturday nights, Mia Francesca customers can listen to the sounds of jazz bands emanating from the Plaza. At other times, pop music plays as background noise. One of the unique aspects of Mia Francesca is that about half of the menu (which is handwritten) changes every two weeks. “I remember when I was a customer (at a different Mia Francesca’s), I never knew what (I was going to be offered) — that’s the beauty of it,” said Luigi Negroni, chef at the Del Mar location. Of course, there are some staples, such as Carpaccio con Asparagi, consisting of sliced raw sirloin, capers, tomatoes, mushrooms, asparagus and

At lunch, sandwiches are served with fries or salad; options include fish, meatball, steak, caprese and vegetable. Early in the week, there are several themed evenings. Monday is Lasagna Night, with a choice of vegetable or meat fillings. Tuesday features an allyou-can-eat, family-style, spaghettiand-meatballs dinner, which also includes Caesar salad, garlic bread and tiramisu. It’s $10 for children 12 and younger, and $15 for adults. “It’s like grandma’s dinner on Tuesday nights,” Harris said. He noted guests often take their leftover food home and make another meal out of it. Guests can top off their meal with a dessert such as gelato, sorbet, Chocolate Cheesecake with salted chocolate caramel, or Cannoli with ricotta filling, chocolate chips and sprinkled pistachio.

Double the fun with two Pinter one-acts from North Coast Rep BY DIANA SAENGER Nobel Prize-winning playwright, screenwriter, director and actor Harold Pinter (1930-2008) was one of Great Britain’s most influential modern dramatists. His work spanned more than 50 years and included the popular “The Homecoming” (1964) and “The French Lieutenant’s Woman” (1981). North Coast Repertory Theatre Artistic Director David Ellenstein will direct “Two By Pinter: The Lover and The Dumb Waiter,” bringing these one-acts to the stage through June 17. “I fell in love with them as a young man and now, older, I find they have more impact, and I respect them even more,” Ellenstein said. “Pinter’s work is so smart and twisted in its understanding of how the human mind and human behavior works; it’s off-putting and dangerous while also being extremely funny.” “The Lover” (1962) has been labeled “a sexy drama on one hand and an iconic comedy on the other.”

As they busy themselves, they become perplexed by a dumbwaiter in the room that delivers unordered food. Called a “comedy of menace,” it has several unexpected twists.

itself: The sets must be swapped out during intermission. “Marty Burnett, our wizard, has figured out how the one set folds in upon itself so it goes from being an upper-class Windsor cottage to a run-down basement,” boasted Ellenstein. The cast of “The Lover” includes Mark Pinter (no relation to the playwright) as Richard, and Elaine Rivkin as Sarah, the milkman’s role goes to

Richard Baird. The cast of “The Dumb Waiter” features Frank Corrado as Ben and Richard Baird as Gus. Ellenstein said he worked with Mark Pinter for many years, most recently in NCRT’s “The Lion in Winter,” and “Becky’s New Car.” “He also has quite an illustrious television career,” Ellenstein said. “He’s great in ‘The Lover.’ Elaine is from Chicago and making her first appearance with us. She’s fabulous, and I hope to work with her many more times.” This is Baird’s ninth show at NCRT, and he’s playing opposite Frank Pinter. “Frank is a Pinter expert who produces the ‘Pinter Fortnightly’ series in Seattle,” Ellenstein said. “In 2010, he was awarded the William and Eva Fox Foundation Fellowship for Distinguished Achievement by the Theatre Communications Group, and he’ll work on four Pinter plays to be produced in Seattle

For Dental Implant Treatment, it’s a ClearChoice! ClearChoice team of specialists brings you a dental implant solution that ﬁts your budget ... in just one day!* A LEADER IN DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT

Before

Virtually every adult will lose a tooth, and as we get older, more Americans will suffer with missing and failing teeth. These days, however, there are dental implant solutions that either didn’t exist in the past or which were difﬁcult to access. But now, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers are leading the way in innovative dental implant treatments. Dental Implants are a permanent solution for dental problems. And now your treatment, from our team of specialists, can often be accomplished in just one day *… and without the need for additional bone graft surgeries. In fact, dental implants can last a lifetime and have become the treatment of choice for replacement of missing and failing teeth. With more than 10,000 dental implant procedures performed, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers have become a leader in dental implant treatment delivery. TECHNOLOGY Every ClearChoice Dental Implant Center includes an on-site 3D CAT Scan. The 3D CAT Scan technology costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. This technology provides three-dimensional and cross-sectional views that allow ClearChoice doctors to examine the quality and density of the bone that will anchor the dental implants; select the correct type and size of implants; determine the precise placement of implants, and avoid the nerves and sinuses. Since every smile is custom designed, each ClearChoice Center has a specialized Dental Implant in-house lab to custom make your smile. TEAM OF SPECIALISTS

They said they had specialists, a lab, and high tech equipment all at one location, but I had no idea that they could really do all of this in just one day!* — Actual ClearChoice patient

Each of the doctors has special expertise and can be trusted to deliver your high quality implant care. Dental Implants are a surgical procedure and the ClearChoice doctors have extensive experience in this area including administering anesthesia to provide comfort. Custom fabrication of the patient’s new smile and replacement teeth are accomplished by trained lab technicians in the on-site dental implant lab.

Curves Torrey Hills marks National Curves Day BY KAREN BILLING Curves Torrey Hills owner Cheryle Dufek celebrated National Curves Day on May 17 with her gym Curves Torrey Hills. The day-long celebration featured raffles, healthy snacks, classes and healthy women-only workouts for all. For Curves Day, Curves donated more than one million 30-day memberships to empower women in health. May 13-19 was also National Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Heath Week, coordinated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Servicesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Office on Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Health. Curves Torrey Hills was formerly located in the Torrey Hills Shopping Center for five and a half years before moving to its new Sorrento Valley location last April. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(The new place) is a lot bigger, we have skylights for natural light and can roll up our doors for fresh air,â&#x20AC;? Dufek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an awesome space.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also one of the few Curves to have a showerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the owner of the space allowed Dufek to build the gym exactly how she wanted it and they love all the room and extra amenities. Curves fits in a complete cardio and strength training workout in just 30 minutes in a circuit made up of resistance machines that work every major muscle

group, two muscles at a time. One of Curves Torrey Hillsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; newer members is seeing some excellent results. Nitza Butler has paired Curves with her diet program since March and has lost 60 pounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just love it because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for women of all ages and women only in a nice, private place,â&#x20AC;? Butler said. Veteran Leslie Kilroy has been coming to Curves for the last four years. While she had tried other exercise programs before, none ever stuck quite like Curves. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here four times a week,â&#x20AC;? Kilroy said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy for me to come and follow the routine and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get bored.â&#x20AC;? New additions to Curves Torrey Hills are Pilates and Zumba classes, which Lisbeth Garces was leading on Thursday afternoon. Garces said everyone from Dufekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 8-year-old granddaughter to one 88-yearold member have enjoyed the Latin-dance inspired workout guaranteed to have you smiling while you sweat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have lots of fun and get good exercise,â&#x20AC;? Dufek said of her Curves. Curves Torrey Hills is located at 10855 Sorrento Valley Road, suite 8. Look for the Curves sign.

New farmers market benefits Canyon Crest Academy Foundation

858.259.4880• 2638 DEL MAR HEIGHTS RD. DEL MAR

BY KAREN BILLING A new weekly farmers market opened May 17 at Canyon Crest Academy. Fresh produce and yummy eats are now offered every Thursday from 3:30 to 7 p.m. at the new Pacific Highlands Farmers Market, a California-certified market, which ensures everything is grown within the state. Located at the corner of the lot closest to the Carmel Valley Road and Del Mar Heights Road intersection, the market benefits the Canyon Crest Academy Foundation. “We’re excited about it. There’s no grocery store in that area so we’re giving people an alternative to get fresh produce, reaching out to the community and supporting the school,” said Marty Foltyn, vice president of marketing for the foundation. “It seemed like a win-win for both the Farmers Market and the Foundation and also for the community. We hope to build some momentum in the last months of school.” Ron LaChance, who also runs the Leucadia and Mira Mesa markets, said the Mira Mesa market is also held at and supports Mira Mesa High School. “Mira Mesa is very similar, school gets out and it’s a built-in customer base for students, parents and faculty to run in and shop,” LaChance said. “Having it at a school helps new markets get off the ground.” There are 10 certified growers, including goat cheese and beef from a cattle ranch. “There is lots of great produce, some organic,” LaChance said. “All of the vegetables are busting out in season right now, like peaches, apricots, blueberries — and cherry season just started. It’s the perfect season to start the Pacific High-

There are regular tented food vendors selling pulled pork, salads, sandwiches, veggie wraps, gyros and seafood, including baked clams, oysters on the half shell and even sea urchin. A rotation of food trucks will also visit. “We hope it becomes a regular thing for people to come and eat dinner and get their produce for the next week,” LaChance said. LaChance said there is also a vendor with potted herbs and fruit trees, who can also provide information for people who are interested in home gardens. CCA students also plan to be a part of the market, with musicians providing live music. “It’s a neat plus for the students to be involved,” LaChance said. A website is being developed but people can learn more at the market’s Facebook page at facebook.com/pacifichighlandsfarmersmarket

Belly dancing, parties add to Solana Beach lady’s ‘beauty lounge’ concept

On any given day, you might walk in to Bella Sareena Beauty Lounge and find a belly dancing class or a teenage girl’s beauty-centered birthday party taking place. Or, you may smell the steeping mint leaves in owner Orly Perez’s homemade tea, or you may hear the majestic vocals and guitar strums of the girl at the framing shop next door practicing her tunes. That’s all in addition to the variety of all-natural health and beauty services you can find there. “I wanted a space where I could do more than just beauty,” said Perez, an esthetician who opened the business earlier this year at 128 E.

Summer program targets high school students of real estate parents The University of San Diego’s Burnham-Moores Center for Real Estate is launching an innovative program designed for the sons and daughters of parents who work in real estate or have significant real estate portfolios. The four-day program gives students a headstart on what it takes to be successful in a real estate career.

For more information, contact realestate@sandiego.edu.

Academic pressure to stand out. Social pressure to fit in. It’s not easy being a high school or middle school student these days. Whether your child gets straight “As” or struggles, chances are they’re overwhelmed by homework, activities, and the distractions created by technology. Parents are looking for solutions to help their kids in the balancing act of life. SuperCamp teaches real-life strategies. The result — increases in grades, confidence and motivation. Bobbi DePorter created SuperCamp to

help kids succeed. Now in its 30th year with 64,000 graduates worldwide, SuperCamp is held on college campuses and builds study skills, self-esteem, and test scores. SuperCamp works. Parent Patty M. says, “We saw a dramatic jump in grades, a newfound sense of responsibility at home, and the things she has learned about discipline, goals and her self-worth have been of lasting value.” Visit www.supercamp.com or call 1-800285-3276.

“Going to SuperCamp has been one of the best things I’ve done with my life... I feel prepared, knowing how to study for tests, earn higher grades, and retain more information...

Alephonsion Deng shares his remarkable story with the Cal Coast Academy students.

‘Lost Boy’ from Sudan speaks to Del Mar students Cal Coast Academy, a Del Mar-based college preparatory private school, hosted an intimate Q & A event featuring special guest speakers Alephonsion “Al” Deng and Judy A. Bernstein on May 14 at the Cardiff Library. During an optional reception immediately following the proceeding, Deng and Bernstein’s co-authored autobiographical book titled “They Poured Kourosh Tayebi (a 7th grade Cal Fire on Us From Coast Academy student) and the Sky, the true Alephonsion Deng. story of three Lost Boys from Sudan,” promptly became a treasured belonging among the handful of attendees fortunate enough to obtain a signed copy of the astounding memoir before it completely sold out. In the award-winning memoir, Deng, along with his brother Benson and cousin Benjamin Ajak, paint a horrific picture of the 14-year nightmare they endured, fleeing as refugees across Sudan, Ethiopia, and Kenya before signing up to take part in the “Lost Boys of Sudan” program and resettling in America. The unimaginable personal accounts narrated in this compelling story tell of the tremendous obstacles, challenges and sufferings these boys had to overcome and the sacrifices they made during their 1,000-mile trek across lion and crocodile-infested terrain. As a guest speaker sharing his unsettling past, Deng heroically relives his emotionally- seared childhood time and time again to help educate our future generations about the devastatingly harsh and all too often muted impact and aftermath caused by the ongoing genocide in Darfur, Sudan. “It is imperative that students be educated on a global level, addressing crucial worldly issues and understanding that awareness and knowledge are critical components in correcting global injustice,” stated Jan Dunning, founder and principal of Cal Coast Academy. “At Cal Coast, we recognize the seriousness of and strive to provide our students with the unsurpassed advantages associated with and gained through a well-rounded and all-embracing education that presents an honest representation of the world around us.” Deng’s inexplicably painful, yet ultimately triumphant life began with an upbringing far too removed from our own to truly comprehend, and included enough twists and turns to leave even the strongest in despair. Now, as a young man, he radiates with genuine grace and unmatched optimism. “Alephonsion Deng truly defines courage, hope, determination, bravery, and inspiration,” states Dunning. “We are honored to have been part of this unforgettable event and to have met this extraordinary hero.” To learn more about Cal Coast Academy, call 858.481.0882 or visit www.calcoastacademy.com.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting

the county recorderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ofďŹ ce or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneďŹ ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trusteeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www. qualityloan.com , using the ďŹ le number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-11-456160-AB . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reďŹ&#x201A;ected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneďŹ ciary within 10 days of the date of ďŹ rst publication of this Notice of Sale.

IRELAND continued from page B1 group is to allow the Irish to connect more on a level of cooperation in business,” she said. “They really haven’t done that so much before.” The group also has chapters in a number of U.S. cities, including San Francisco, Boston, Chicago and New York, as well as in other countries. “Our mission is about supporting the Irish diaspora,” said Neil McKay. The local group felt “privileged and honored” by the ambassador’s visit, said Neil. “It’s a little like the shepherd visiting his flock.” The Good Friday peace accord set the stage for the emergence of the “Celtic Tiger,” the nickname for Ire-

land’s robust economic growth from the mid-1990s through 2007, said Neil McKay. “I left Ireland in 1980, not because I had to, but because I had a profound sense of despair that the peace could never happen. To my amazement and delight in a short period of time… the peace in Ireland got delivered and Michael Collins had a hand in that being delivered,” Neil McKay said. When he and his wife go back to visit friends and family, as they do frequently, he said, “We are in awe of the change of attitude, especially in the north of Ireland, where we are from.” For more information, visit www.irishnetworksd.com

Edward Jones ranks highest in investor satisfaction, according to study For the sixth year out of the past eight, financial-services firm Edward Jones ranks highest in investor satisfaction with full service brokerage firms, according to the J.D. Power and Associates 2012 Full Service Investor Satisfaction Study. The study measures overall investor satisfaction with full service investment firms based on seven factors: investment advisor, investment performance, account information, account offerings, commissions and fees, website and problem resolution. Edward Jones places its branch offices in the communities where its clients — long-term individual investors — live and work. This practice, which enables its branch teams to provide personalized service to all clients, has helped the firm attain the highest score in the “Investment Advisor” category of the study. “We are gratified that our clients find it convenient to work with us on their longterm financial goals,” Diane Huckabee said. “We enjoy working one-on-one with our clients and believe that builds a collaborative relationship.” Edward Jones also received high marks in the “Account Information” category, an important factor in the study. “Hearing that we did particularly well in the account information factor is especially meaningful as we strive to help our clients make sense of investing,” Huckabee said. Edward Jones’ overall score climbed 15 points over last year, highest among the 14 largest firms rated, as well as 28 points above the industry average.

Edward Jones ranked highest in investor satisfaction by J.D. Power and Associates in 2010 and 2009, from 2005 through 2007, and in a tie in 2002, when the study began. Edward Jones in Canada ranked highest in the J.D. Power and Associates Canadian Full Service Investor Satisfaction Study in 2006 through 2008. The 2012 Full Service Investor Satisfaction Study is based on responses from 4,378 investors who primarily invest with one of the 14 firms included in the study. The study was fielded in February 2012. Edward Jones provides financial services for individual investors in the United States and, through its affiliate, in Canada. Every aspect of the firm’s business, from the types of investment options offered to the location of branch offices, is designed to cater to individual investors in the communities in which they live and work. In January 2012, for the 13th year, Edward Jones was named one of the best companies to work for by FORTUNE Magazine in its annual listing. The firm ranked No. 5 overall and No. 3 in Large Size Companies. These 13 FORTUNE rankings include top 10 finishes for nine years, consecutive No. 1 rankings in 2002 and 2003, and consecutive No. 2 rankings in 2009 and 2010. FORTUNE and Time Inc. are not affiliated with and do not endorse products or services of Edward Jones.
