Water rate hike closer to final adoption

■ See inside for a variety of photos of community events.

BY JOE TASH The Santa Fe Irrigation District is closer to adoption of its first rate increase since 2013, now that a divided board of directors has voted to set a public hearing on a rate plan that would generate a maximum of 9 percent in increased revenue for each of the next three years. At its meeting on Thursday, March 17, the board voted 3-2, with directors Greg Gruzdowich and Marlene King opposed, to set a

public hearing on the rate plan for May 19. Before that date, the district will send out an eight-page notice detailing the rate plan to customers and property owners in the district, and hold three community forums to explain the rate plan and answer questions. The board also voted 3-2, again with Gruzdowich and King in opposition, not to include a clip-out coupon indicating a protest of the rate plan, with the public notice being mailed out on

April 1. The votes mirror earlier decisions by the board on the rate plan. A final vote will take place after the public hearing in May. If approved, the new rates would take effect June 1. While the overall impact of the plan will be to raise district revenue, the effect on individual customers’ bills will vary, based on such factors as amount of water used and customer classification.

Neighbors wanted action taken before an accident or death occurs on the dangerous thoroughfare; anecdotes shared included several near misses for pedestrians due to cars speeding through the area. “I cross every day with my dogs and I’m almost hit on a weekly basis,” said one neighbor.

One resident said her toddlers were nearly hit by a car while crossing in their stroller; another resident said when he starts running from one side of the street he can’t tell a car is coming until he’s midway across and there have been close calls with fast-moving vehicles. SEE STREETS, A26

BY KRISTINA HOUCK Despite some concerns from nearby neighbors, Del Mar is getting its first roundabout. In two 4-0 votes on March 21, the City Council certified an environmental impact report on the proposal and directed city staff to finish designing the project for the intersection of Jimmy Durante Boulevard and San Dieguito Drive. “It is going to be a great asset to the community,” said Deputy Mayor Terry Sinnott. The roundabout One of our jobs was originally as council proposed as members is to part of a ensure the safety citywide of the community, sidewalk and that is a improvement dangerous project, but crossing. after some community Del Mar Councilman members Don Mosier voiced concerns about the need of a roundabout and impacts on traffic, the traffic calming device was pulled for a separate study. As part of the required California Environmental Quality Act review, the city’s consulting firm, San Diego-based Kleinfelder, prepared the environmental study. The report concluded that the roundabout is the “environmentally superior” option for improving the intersection, compared to a traffic signal or no changes at all. The study also found that both the roundabout and traffic signal would keep traffic flowing at acceptable levels through 2035, except during peak hours of the San Diego County Fair. The roundabout would cause less delay than a signal during off-peak times, according to the study. Although Councilman Al Corti did not vote on the issue because he owns property in the area, speaking as a resident, he said he supported the SEE DEL MAR, A27

Pardee, SD Mountain Bike group partner on new trail BY KAREN BILLING More than 60 volunteers came out on Feb. 27 to work on a valuable trail improvement in Del Mar Mesa, a collaboration between Pardee Homes and the San Diego Mountain Bike Association (SDMBA). “This the first time that SDMBA has partnered with Pardee Homes, or any developer, on a trail project. With development happening in all parts of San Diego County, we hope we can continue to work with developers to create quality, sustainable natural trails for their communities,” said Susie Murphy, executive director of SDMBA. “Pardee Homes has been fully involved in the process of planning and building this trail. We applaud their efforts and thank them for being a leader in this area.” A second work day with SDMBA volunteers was held on March 12 and volunteers will continue to log work hours midweek with a target completion in April. The one-half-mile trail, located in the canyon south of Duck Pond Lane and north of Equestrian Ridge Court in Del Mar Mesa, will provide connectivity to the Cobbles Trail via the crossing under Carmel Mountain Road. The new trail alignment is close to an area once home to “The Intestines,” a popular

system of trails that was closed when Pardee began work on the Alta Del Mar development in 2008. “I used to ride those trails at least weekly and it was a great trail,” said Paul Wyandt, a member of the SDMBA who volunteered to help with the improvements. “The new trail is a better alignment and far more sustainable now.” SDMBA has nicknamed the new trail “The Appendix.” “Thiis trail is beneficial for this community in many ways, as are all trails. This trail is helping to establish a legal option in an area once well known for an abundance of routes,” Murphy said. “ This connector will also link areas

in a few spots…it’s a much more interesting trail than just the average decomposed granite path.” The Alta Del Mar Mesa Homeowners Association will become the steward of the trail upon completion, according to Allen Kashani, director of project management for Pardee Homes. “Creation of the trail segment was approved as part of Pardee Homes’ Alta Del Mar community and will enhance trail access in the area for residents,” Kashani said. “Pardee is known for developing communities that emphasize trail access, open space, habitat preservation and protection of wildlife corridors, and we were

separated by urban development and is a multi-use trail for the enjoyment of cyclists, hikers, trail runners, equestrians and neighbors.” The Appendix portion connects with the “Cobbles,” the descent into the Los Penasquitos Canyon Preserve, “if you go down you go straight to the waterfall,” Wyandt said. “The design of the trail goes through the scrub trees, which has a similar feel to the tunnel trails that have been chipped away at over the last few years,” Wyandt said. “It’s a single-track, three-foot wide path that hugs close to the trees and under a canopy in threes

excited to work with the San Diego Mountain Biking Association to enhance and improve access to the trail system, an initiative we hope will offer benefits for the community for years to come.” Experienced trail builders from the International Mountain Bicycling Association’s Subaru/IMBA Trail Care Crew were on hand on Feb. 26-27 to teach proper trail building techniques and help with the extension.

Big seawall eyed in Solana Beach

Del Mar council considers changes to civic center plans Single-level parking garage could save city $500,000

CHARLIE NEUMAN

A couple with a dog walk on the beach recently below the home (above left) with the bright white roof trim on Pacific Ave. Plans are to extend the existing seawall south. The wall, designed to look natural, is shown at middle right.

City says two homes in ‘imminent danger’ and need 140-foot concrete barrier as cliff below them erodes BY PHIL DIEHL The most heavily armored city in North County could soon get another seawall. Two Solana Beach families have applied for permits that would allow them to build a 140-foot-long concrete wall to protect their side-by-side bluff-top homes. The project could

cost roughly $1.4 million. Both families live in houses built in the mid-1950s on the ocean side of Pacific Avenue, where the structures overlook an 80-foot cliff eroding under the constant assault of weather and waves. Their dilemma exemplifies a battle going on the length of California’s

coast— whether coastal property owners should stand their ground or give it up to the advancing sea. Some environmentalist groups, such as the Surfrider Foundation, say seaside residents should retreat. Eroding bluffs allow beaches to widen and create new sand, and seawalls SEE SEAWALL, A19

BY KRISTINA HOUCK In a move that could save the city a half-million dollars, the Del Mar City Council on March 21 directed staff to further study changes to the parking garage for Del Mar’s planned civic center. Located on the site of the city’s current facilities at 1050 Camino del Mar, the project includes an 8,722-square-foot city hall, 3,172-square-foot town hall and 15,000-square-foot public plaza. When the council approved permits for the construction of the nearly $18 million complex in January, it also included up to 160 parking spaces in a two-level partially below-grade structure and surface lot. Since then, the architects for the project, The Miller Hull Partnership, have proposed a one-level garage. With a one-level garage, there would be no changes to the approved vehicle egresses and ingresses of the garage. However, the one-level garage would reduce the total number of parking spaces to 140. It would also extend the parking structure under the town hall and town commons, which would require modifications to the structural system, storm drainage and tree placement plans, which have been taken into account in the calculation of cost savings. But Kathleen Garcia, the city’s planning and community development director, explained there are also many benefits. SEE CIVIC CENTER, A27

Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society offers scholarships to graduating seniors BY KRISTINA HOUCK Solana Beach high school seniors searching for scholarships can apply to a local organization for support. For the third year, the Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society is offering scholarships to local college-bound students. Two $1,000 one-time awards are available. “We wanted to give back to the community,” said Pat Coad, chairwoman of the society’s education committee. “Since we do civic and historical work, we felt that giving back to kids in the community ... would honor them in some way.” Applicants must be graduating seniors who live in Solana Beach and will be attending a four-year college, community college or technical school. They must also maintain at least a 3.0 grade point average, demonstrate financial need and be involved in the community. In addition to the application form, applicants must submit two letters of recommendation, one from a teacher and another from an adult who is not related to the applicant and can provide information regarding the student’s community service and volunteerism. The deadline to apply is April 30. Following the deadline, the education committee reviews the applications and selects the two scholarship recipients based on financial need, grade point average, community activities, extracurricular involvement, awards and

recognition, and the letters of recommendation. Winners are notified soon after. Proceeds from the Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society’s Holiday Boutique benefit the scholarship program and the society’s other community projects. To host the Holiday Boutique, a craft group meets monthly to create items for the annual fundraiser, which includes handcrafted items, holiday decorations, baked goods and raffle prizes. “The ladies that do the Holiday Boutique are just wonderful,” Coad said. “They work all year long to pull off this wonderful, wonderful sale.” Providing financial support to college-bound Solana Beach students is just one of the ways the society gives back to the community. The Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society evolved from the Solana Beach Women’s Civic Club, which was formed in 1953. The City Council asked the club in 1989 to become custodians of the city’s history. The club’s Certificate of Incorporation was then modified to create the Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society, and membership became open to all adults in the community. Today the society focuses on civic and cultural advancement, education and philanthropy. Some of the projects the society has sponsored over the years include the renovation of Fletcher Cove Community Center, the acquisition of the Gateway property and the continued beautification of the city through plantings and

public art. The society also educates local students and community members about Solana Beach’s history through programs at the Heritage Museum located in La Colonia Park. “We’re the ones who hold onto the past, as well as look to how we can help the community for the future,” said Coad, who has been a member of the society for about 20 years. “I’m a member of this community, and I really love the community. I feel like Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society is a wonderful organization that gives back to the community.” A retired kindergarten teacher, Coad initially suggested creating a scholarship program when she and other society members were discussing new ways to get involved in the community more than three years ago. Last year the society awarded $1,000 scholarships to Canyon Crest Academy graduate Shea Irwin and Torrey Pines High School graduate Tim Holdsworth. Irwin is now studying art and design at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Holdsworth is studying mechanical engineering and sociology at the University of San Diego. They have both since written letters to the Solana Beach Civic and Historical Society. “We got two absolutely wonderful letters from the kids telling us about their years and how it was going,” Coad said. “We felt good. We felt like this had all been a wonderful thing.” The scholarship application is available at solanabeachcivicandhistoricalsociety.org.

Solana Beach Library scholarship opportunity The Friends of the Solana Beach Library are accepting applications through April 30 for one scholarship of up to $1,500 in tuition reimbursement for a student seeking a Library Technician certification or enrolled in a master’s degree program in Library Science. Applicants must be residents of Solana Beach (e.g. live in zip code 92075), or be employed by or volunteer at the Solana Beach Library. Those interested are encouraged to leave a one-page description of their educational goals, documentation of their current registration in a qualifying program and tuition costs, and proof of residency or work address in the Friends of the Solana Beach Library book store or mail them to: Scholarships, Friends of the Solana Beach Library, 157 Stevens Ave., Solana Beach, 92075.

Doctor dedicated to preventing hearing loss in kids BY KAREN BILLING Dr. Daniela Carvalho is trying to spread the word about the dangers of frequent noise exposure to children and the possible permanent hearing loss it can cause. Carvalho, a pediatric otolaryngologist and the chief of the otolaryngology section at Rady Children’s Hospital, said the increase in children with hearing loss is “alarming”—a recent study found that 20 percent of teens have some degree of permanent hearing loss. Teens are exposed to a lot of noise every day through listening to devices such as iPods, playing video games and through the use of ear buds which Carvalho said is an ear, noise and throat doctor’s worst enemy. While noise-induced hearing loss is usually gradual and painless, it is Dr. Daniela permanent. Carvalho “It’s a silent problem,” Carvalho said, noting that teenagers often don’t even realize they are having trouble hearing and it presents first as having problems in school. “We need to be careful about it and it’s so easy to prevent.” Carvalho is the director of the hearing and Cochlear Implant Program at Rady and is a professor in the department of surgery at UC San Diego School of Medicine. She is an expert in pediatric ear surgeries, such as cochlear implants and bone-anchored hearing aids, and was the first surgeon in San Diego to do bone-anchored hearing aid surgery in pediatric patients. Carvalho is originally from Brazil and has been in San Diego since 2003. A resident of Carmel Valley for 10 years, Carvalho has a son at Ocean Air Elementary School and a daughter at Carmel Valley Middle School. “Being an ENT (ear, nose and throat doctor) is just very fascinating. As a surgeon I can do very delicate procedures, such as ear surgeries, to large surgeries in the head and neck,”

One of Dr. Daniela Carvalho’s young patients with a cochlear implant. Carvalho said. Hearing has always been a huge passion for Carvalho. Having family members with hearing loss helped pique her interest in the field as one of her cousins was born without an inner ear canal. She has also always had a love of music and languages—she can speak five (Portuguese, English, Spanish, German and French). “I grew up in a world where hearing was very important for communication and enjoyment and socializing,” Carvalho said. “It was definitely always something I had on my radar screen.” Carvalho’s expertise in pediatric ear surgeries has changed the lives of many children in San Diego through the use of bone-anchored hearing aids and through cochlear implants.

W E ARE ABO UT AS GREEN AS ASPHALT GETS!

The bone-anchored hearing aid is a titanium implant inserted in the skull behind the ear, allowing time for the bone to grow around it. Once it has bonded, a hearing aid is attached. The bone acts as a pathway for sound to travel through the cochlea, the inner ear, through vibrations. Carvalho said the bone-anchored hearing aid can be used for kids with profound unilateral hearing loss (impaired hearing in one ear) or kids who were born without ear canals or born without ears, which she said is not that uncommon. Carvalho said the outer attachment is made in colors that resemble skin colors and often you can’t see it on girls whose long hair covers it. “It’s easy to use and the results are pretty amazing,” she said. Carvalho is the only pediatric surgeon certified in San Diego County to perform cochlear implants. She has installed cochlear implants on more than 400 kids in San Diego. Patients who are candidates for the cochlear implant are born completely deaf. It is a complex surgery in which an electrode is placed inside the ear that communicates directly with the auditory nerve. Carvalho aims to perform the surgery on children within nine to 12 months of when they are born deaf, as well as on children who have progressive hearing loss. The Rady Children’s cochlear implant program includes a very comprehensive team to help guide patients, including Carvalho, audiologists, a speech pathologist, a developmental psychologist and an education liaison. The cochlear implant takes a lot more rehabilitation than the bone-anchored hearing aid and it’s a long process with extensive speech therapy, programming and mapping of the devices over the course of a year. It takes a lot of commitment but Carvalho said it’s amazing seeing patients learn how to speak or play an instrument and hear music for the first time—every year Rady celebrates its young cochlear implant patients with a heartwarming “Joy of Sound” picnic and SEE HEARING, A25

BY KAREN BILLING Jessica “JJ” Javelet, a former member on the USA National Field Hockey team, is making a comeback on another national team, aiming for a chance to represent her country in the Olympics. Javelet, a San Diego native and Torrey Pines High School graduate, is shooting for Rio playing an entirely different sport —she is currently a wing on the USA Women’s Eagles Sevens rugby team. The 31-year-old Javelet, a sleek and swift 5’6”, took a route through women’s tackle football on her way to the bruising sport of rugby. She is as new to rugby sevens as the sport is to the Olympics — this summer will mark its debut on both the men’s and women’s sides. Rugby fifteens was last in the Olympic Games in 1924 and the American men won the gold medal that year. “It’s kind of crazy to be in the beginning of it,” Javelet said of Olympic rugby. Javelet grew up in Encinitas and Rancho Santa Fe and played a variety of youth sports, including soccer, basketball, lacrosse and field hockey. After graduating Torrey Pines, she went on to play field hockey at the University of Louisville where she was a three-time All American, three-time Academic All American and NCAA Woman of the Year finalist in 2007. After college, Javelet made the U.S. National Field Hockey team, where she competed from 2006 to 2009. After she failed to make the roster for the 2008 Olympic team, she played professional field hockey in Germany and coached at St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia. When her field hockey career came to a close, Javelet was looking for something equally competitive to get into so thanks to a friend’s suggestion, moved on to tackle football,. She played three years in the Women’s Football Alliance and won two championships with the San Diego Serge and Chicago Force. Javelet played wide receiver alongside many great crossover female athletes who had never had the opportunity to play football before. Playing football led to Javelet’s introduction to rugby as former sevens

national coach Ric Suggitt recruited her after seeing her play. He invited her to come back to Chula Vista in 2014 to train with the team even though Javelet had never played rugby in her life — he recognized that she could be a dynamic rugby player. “I’d never even seen rugby sevens, only fifteens, and I didn’t even know the rules,” Javelet said. “I was basically learning the rules while playing at a very elite level. It happened so quickly, it was just ‘Let’s throw you in there and see how you swim.’” She played in her first international tournament three weeks after she started playing rugby, not entirely sure what was happening. “They told me my goal is to get the ball and get away from everyone as fast as you can,” Javelet said. There were some adjustments — every other sport she had played the ball was moved forward but in rugby it moves backward or laterally. While she had taken some hits in field hockey and football, she also had to learn how to tackle and be tackled without pads. And there were a lot of rules; in rugby they’re officially known as laws. “I really loved playing football but the plays last four to eight seconds. I like the continual nature of rugby. It keeps on going and it’s really fast paced. It’s an extremely tiring sport and it’s super challenging, but in one game I’ve never felt so excited, scared, frightened and humbled.” She said she remembers telling a teammate before one of her early matches just how nervous she was and the teammate replied that it was understandable, she was either going to score to get knocked out. “It isn’t like that in field hockey,” she laughs. As rugby players are in constant motion, the national players need to commit to elite training to stay fit, strong and fast. At the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, Javelet is in residency full time and is paid to remain. From 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. she is training with the squad — a typical SEE RUGBY, A25

Biographer recalls life of prominent writer and friend Gore Vidal BY JOE TASH To Jay Parini, Gore Vidal was a great friend, a true artist and a presence in the American intellectual firmament for more than 50 years. “Here was a man who, in his time, was a meteor,” said Parini of Vidal, a novelist, essayist and public personality who died in 2012 at age 86. Parini, himself a poet, novelist and biographer, was the featured speaker at the March 10 meeting of the Rancho Santa Fe Literary Society held at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar. He spoke about his 2015 biography of Vidal, called “Empire of Self,” published by Doubleday. Parini chose Vidal as his latest biographical subject for both personal and professional reasons — along with being an admirer of Vidal’s novels, screen and stage plays and essays, Parini and Vidal enjoyed a friendship that lasted more than three decades. In an interview before his talk, Parini said he met Vidal in the 1980s when he was living with his family on the Italian coast for a year as he worked on his second novel. Learning that it was the great American writer who owned a prominent cliff-top mansion, Parini sent him a note, suggesting a meeting. “He pounded on my door that very day. He said, ‘Let’s have a drink.’ From then on we were friends. We talked and talked and talked and talked,” Parini said. Parini’s book chronicles Vidal’s life, from his boyhood in his grandparents’ home near Washington, D.C., to time he spent in New York, Rome and his villa near the town of Amalfi on the Italian coast. The list of Vidal’s

MCKENZIE IMAGES

RSF Literary Society President Candace Humber with author Jay Parini. friends and acquaintances reads like a celebrity manifest — as a child, he counted aviator Amelia Earhart as one of his babysitters, and later in life he moved in circles that included everyone from actors Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward to John F. Kennedy and conductor Leonard Bernstein. Amidst his active social life, Vidal, who joined the U.S. Navy after high school but never attended college, managed to write some 100 books, including 25 novels, dozens of television and film screenplays, and hundreds of essays. He was also a regular guest on talk shows hosted by Johnny Carson, Dick Cavett, Merv Griffin and others. His best-known novels include “Lincoln,”

“Burr” and “Myra Breckinridge.” One fascination, which he kept coming back to in his work, was American history. “Those are great novels,” said Parini. “People should read those novels and know about them down the road.” Vidal also became known for his essays and public commentary espousing progressive political ideas, and his legendary series of televised debates with conservative pundit William F. Buckley. The grandson of a U.S. senator, Thomas P. Gore, Vidal ran unsuccessfully for office twice, including a bid against Jerry Brown for a U.S. Senate seat in California. Parini said he purposely waited until after

Vidal’s death to write his book, to avoid interference from the writer. He said he did not pull any punches regarding Vidal’s acerbic, narcissistic personality, his heavy drinking or his homosexuality, a term that Vidal eschewed. While Vidal preferred to think of himself as bisexual, others around him, including Howard Austen, his companion of 53 years, disagreed. According to Parini, Austen once said of Vidal, “If he’s bisexual, I’m Genghis Khan.” Parini, who teaches at Middlebury College in Vermont, lives in a 19th Century farmhouse surrounded by woods and streams, where he can get away from the hubbub of modern life to think and write. His latest book, “New and Collected Poems 1975-2015” is due out in late March. On the front page of his website, www.jayparini.com, is a link to a 1990 interview Parini conducted with Vidal and progressive intellectual Noam Chomsky. Parini said he misses the frequent telephone chats with his long-time friend, which usually focused on current events and politics. “I would give anything to have him here today to talk about Donald Trump,” he said. “(Vidal) was an astoundingly gifted public intellectual who played a role in American society for over half a century. We need more people like Gore out there speaking and framing issues, livening the culture in a way that wasn’t crude,” Parini said. “He flashed across the sky. He was a bright star.” For more information on Parini and his work, visit jayparini.com.

Local residents named among ‘Cool Women of 2016’

Three North Coastal residents are among Girl Scout’s San Diego’s Cool Women of 2016: Darcy C. Bingham, Debra L. Reed and Erica Ollmann Saphire, Ph.D. of Del Mar, Rancho Santa Fe and Solana Beach, respectively, were honored during an awards luncheon and ceremony at Coasterra on Harbor Island. Girl Scout Elizabeth Hosie of Vista was named the Cool Girl of 2016. “We’re proud to honor these exemplary women for their extraordinary leadership and community service,” said Jo Dee C. Jacob, chief executive officer of Girl Scouts San Diego. “Our Cool Women’s personal and professional lives make them consummate role models for girls.” At the end of the ceremony, Jacob was surprised to learn that she herself was named a Cool Woman of 2016. Jacob, a former U.S. Navy captain, retired this month after nearly 15 years at the helm of Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts San Diego board member Julia Brown (a Cool Woman in 2005) and Joye Blount (a 2013 Cool Woman) co-chaired the 16th annual event. During the ceremony, a Cool Woman alumna introduced each awardee. Del Mar resident Linda Katz of the Cool Women Class of 2002 presented Bingham, a self-defined “philanthropreneur” who empowers young people to access college educations. An honorary alumna of UCSD, Bingham serves as its trustee and Student Foundation chair, and is a past-chair of the Undergraduate Scholarship Council. She co-founded San Diego Social Venture Partners and the San Diego Women’s Foundation. This former Girl Scout currently

Seacrest at Home:

A Home Care agency designed to meet your individual needs What is the difference between Home Care and Home Health Care? Kelli Denton, RN, Director of Seacrest at Home, gets that question a lot. While the two are similar, there are many differences to consider when trying to make the best decision for yourself or a family member. “It is a tough choice for families to decide when to seek help for their loved ones,” said Denton, who moved to Southern California from Western New York in 2012 to launch Seacrest at Home. “I believe we are the only non-proﬁt home care agency in our county. We take pride in our commitment to doing what’s best for our community.” Here are the primary differences between Home Care and Home Health Care, as deﬁned by Denton: HOME CARE • Non-medical assistance • Professional, trained caregivers and companions • Private pay or long-term care insurance • Licensed by California’s Department of Social Services (Effective Jan. 1, 2016)

All the Comforts of Home. All the Perks of Professional Care. SEACREST at home is your trusted

not-for-proﬁt home care agency when you or a loved-one requires additional help at home. • Personal Care, Bathing & Dressing Assistance • Medication Reminders

HOME HEALTH CARE • Physician ordered and monitored • Medically necessary • Skilled care required by professionals such as RN, PT, OT, MSW or SLP • Medicare, Medi-Cal, HMO, private medical insurance • Federal and state regulated Seacrest at Home – voted one of the top ﬁve home care companies in San Diego’s Union-Tribune Best of Voting for 2015 – offers professional and reliable care designed to meet individual needs and desires. The organization’s goal is to make life easier for its clients while enabling family members to have the peace of mind that great care is being provided in the comfort of their loved one’s own home. Denton possesses more than 30 years of nursing experience across oncology, infusion therapy, home health and home care. Her professional network of caregivers are monitored daily and have specialized training in Alzheimer’s Care. It’s this level of trust and commitment to excellence that sets Seacrest at Home apart from the rest. “The vetting process that all home care agencies must follow as of January 1, 2016 was our process since day one when we opened,” Denton said. “In addition, home care being nonmedical, we assist with personal care such as bathing, grooming, dressing, meal preparation, light housekeeping, errands, medication reminders and companionship. We service San Diego’s coastal areas and some inland areas as well.”

• Meal Preparation & Light Housekeeping • Transportation to Appointments & Errands • Pet Care • Companionship • We accept most Long-Term Care Insurance

We match you or your loved one with carefully screened professionals committed to providing excellent care.

When you choose Seacrest at Home for your home care needs, you are also choosing to support your local community. “We have a small scholarship fund that helps offset costs if a client meets ﬁnancial eligibility requirements,” Denton said. “This scholarship fund is from philanthropic generosity. “Our presence in the community is an absolute point of pride for our organization.” Check out Seacrest at Home online at http://seacrestathome.org/ or call the ofﬁce at 760.942.2695.

Award-winning Del Mar Heights Elementary School physical education program promotes health and wellness The arrival of spring signals the beginning of a new season of Intramural Sports Leagues at Del Mar Heights School. The Intramural Sports League invites all students to participate in friendly competition during their lunch recess periods. “The kids are ready to play and learn — not just about sports and health, but also about teamwork and sportsmanship,” said Ian Phillip, award-winning physical education instructor and founder of the Del Mar Heights Intramural Sports League. The leagues are meant to encourage maximum participation. “I make a point of working with students to create teams that are inclusive of all our students. We mix ability levels and genders and emphasize sportsmanship and healthy fun,” Phillip said. Just as the Intramural Sports program introduces students to a variety of teammates, it also allows students to try a variety of new sports. Phillip has administered ultimate frisbee, hockey, tennis, volleyball, basketball, and soccer leagues. The latest league, baseball, is hosted on Del Mar Heights’ ocean-view baseball diamonds. Championship teams have the chance to play in a student versus teacher championship game. Students and educators alike are thrilled with the program, often coming out to celebrate the team competitions during their lunch periods. Teacher

Andrew Smith reflects, “It is such a pleasure to watch the kids develop healthy habits and the skills of teamwork. I appreciate that intramural sports welcomes all students, not just those who show the most skill.” His son, Grant, a fourth-grader at the school, sums up the program nicely, “What could be better than learning fun sports with friends?” The Intramural Sports program is just one of many signature programs centered around health and wellness at Del Mar Heights School. Recess Mileage Club and the Iron Dolphin Running Club encourage students to develop cardiovascular health while playing active games with friends, while a unique partnership with UCSD provide mentorship and recreation opportunities between Del Mar Heights’ students and collegiate student-athletes. Del Mar Heights School was recently honored as one of only seven schools in California to receive the Distinguished School award for Physical Education and was the only school in San Diego to receive such an accolade. Del Mar Heights School invites families of incoming kindergarteners and new students of all grade levels to learn about the signature programs, excellent academics, and vibrant community that make the neighborhood school a wonderful place for children to grow. To schedule a tour or for more information please visit www.dmusd.org/heights.

Canyon Crest Academy places 1st and 2nd in national math contests Canyon Crest Academy took home 1st and 2nd place finishes in the 2015 Ciphering Time Trials and 2016 Four-by-Four Competition, national mathematics contests administered by National Assessment & Testing (http://www.natassessment.com). Coach Brian Shay prepared students for these contests, each featuring 10 three-minute rounds in which students attempted to quickly answer batches of questions. In the Ciphering Time Trials, individual students tackle three problems per round, while in the Four-by-Four Competition teams of four wrestle with four harder problems each round. In these contests, students must decide whether to (and who will) work each problem or if their time would be better spent checking their work on easier and more familiar problems. After results from schools across the country were double-checked, several of Canyon Crest Academy’s individuals and four-person teams received awards, helping their school to place among the top schools in the country. In the 9th-grade division of the Ciphering Time Trials, Daniel Sun placed 2nd, Tristan Shin was 3rd, Adam Zheng placed 9th, Andrew Zhang and Ronak

Roy tied for 15th-place, Orrin Jiang placed 21st, and Raymond Li was 23rd. Jacob Zhang placed 5th in the 10th-grade division, and Yang Tao and Varkey Alumootil placed 9th and 13th, respectively, in the 11th-grade division. In the 12th-grade division, Tristan Pollner placed 2nd and Eshaan Nichani was 4th. In the Four-by-Four Competition, the team of Adam Zheng, Alan Zhu, Raymond Li, and Edward Li placed 4th in the Rock division, the team of Tristan Shin, Daniel Sun, Jacob Zhang, and Yan Tao placed 1th in the Paper division, and the team of Eshaan Nichani, Tristan Pollner, Bhairav Chidambaram, and Wesley Zhuang placed 2th in the Scissors division. Canyon Crest Academy participated in all four of National Assessment & Testing’s contests this year. National Assessment & Testing administers high-quality mathematics competitions that schools can participate in via email. Their contests span a variety of formats, including individual and team tests, with each contest featuring problems ranging from easy to difficult, providing both confidence and challenges to students of all abilities.

Del Mar Heights students raise $2,300 for Nick’s Picks

fter weeks of saving up allowances and selling lemonade, oranges and home-baked goods, students at Del Mar Heights raised $1,150 for Nick’s Picks, a Del Mar charity founded by 16-year-old Nick Wallace. Wallace created Nick’s Picks in 2012 after a lengthy hospital stay for a liver transplant. His charity gives hospitalized children backpacks filled with Wallace’s personal selection of items that helped him keep up his spirits during his own hospital recovery—hence, Nick’s picks. The funds, matched by the Del Mar Heights PTA, totaled $2,300 and paid for 46 bright blue backpacks, filled with toys, books and other entertaining goodies. During a school assembly on March 18, students presented Wallace and his sister Lexie with the backpacks, which they had assembled that week, along with dozens of hand-drawn get-well notes to be distributed to hospitalized children dealing with chronic illnesses. “It feels nice to help other people,” said Danny Dao, an 11-year-old sixth-grader who spent his recess assembling backpacks and writing notes in the school library. Carlin Smith, a seven-year-old in second grade who also came to help, said, “I gave $10 out of my allowance because I want to help kids in the hospital to get better.” The effort was designed to teach students at Del Mar Heights about the value of giving, said Susanne Chakravarty, chair of the Heights Cares Program that spearheaded the effort, now in its second year. “Last year, the PTA bought 20 backpacks and the kids put them together,” Chakravarty said. “This year, we wanted to make it a broader effort so that the kids can do the fundraising themselves.” It paid off. Del Mar Heights students were able to raise more money on their own than the PTA donated last year, more than doubling the number of backpacks to 46 this year.

Public Scoping meeting to be held on ‘The Preserve at Torrey Highlands’ The City of San Diego Development Services Department will hold a Public Scoping meeting March 30 on the proposed project “The Preserve at Torrey Highlands.” The project is located in the Torrey Highlands planning area on the property known as the Diocese property, which is located on the west side of the future

extension of Camino del Sur, south of SR-56. The March 30 meeting will be held from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. at the Rancho Peñasquitos Branch Library, 13330 Salmon River Rd., San Diego, 92129. Please note that the meeting may end earlier than 7:30 p.m. dependent on the number of attendees.

bluffs. Solana Beach, which has 1.7 miles of coastline, has approved dozens of seawalls and other bluff protection projects in recent decades. Any such project must also be approved by the California Coastal Commission. The city allows bluff protection devices such as seawalls and cave infills whenever a nearby structure is considered in “imminent danger” of damage, which is the case with the two Pacific Avenue homes. About half the length city’s coastal bluffs are protected by some sort of device, City Manager Greg Wade said. Numerous factors are considered to determine whether a structure is in imminent danger, Wade said. Sea caves and natural erosion are the primary factors, but things such as whether the property owner contributed to the situation are also considered. Surfrider generally opposes seawalls and plans to have a representative at this week’s Solana Beach council meeting (held after press time for this newspaper) to talk about how “they eventually narrow and destroy the beach,” said Julia Chunn-Heer, a policy manager for the group’s San Diego chapter. So far, however, the group has taken no position on this specific application. Surfrider has also supported Solana Beach’s recent efforts to establish a recreation fee in addition to the sand mitigation fee charged to property owners who build seawalls. The California Coastal Commission wants cities to require the recreation fee as part of their Local Coastal Program, and Solana Beach is in the process of completing that step. Jim Jaffee, a Surfrider member and Solana Beach resident, said in January that the city’s proposed fee will help compensate the public for the loss of its beaches, even though the only long-term solution is to back away from the bluffs. Winkler said he considers himself an environmentalist, and he’d rather not build the wall. For one thing, it’s expensive— about $10,000 per foot in construction costs plus almost $160,000 in fees. “I prefer the natural environment,” he said. “But the reality is I’m going to lose my house if (the wall is not built).” If the application is approved, the Pacific Avenue homeowners would be required to pay a roughly $37,734 sand mitigation fee to cover the loss of sand that would follow the seawall’s construction, and a $120,000 deposit toward the proposed public recreation fee. The seawall would be minimum of 18 inches thick with an additional 12 inches of “sacrificial” concrete covering designed to erode and give the structure a more natural appearance. Phil Diehl is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune.

interrupt that process. Property owners see it the other way. They say seawalls safeguard the public as well as their homes, and that sometimes the devices can help build better beaches. The city is backing the latest seawall request, after hiring a geotechnical consultant who found the two houses are “threatened with imminent danger or destruction because of bluff erosion.” That doesn’t mean they’re unsafe to inhabit; just that action is needed to prevent further damage to the bluff. David Winkler and his wife, Sherry, bought their bluff-top Solana Beach home in 2001 and understand the power of the waves. Part of their property is within 8 feet of the edge of the bluff. Without seawalls, the bluff would erode at the average rate of 0.4 feet per year, according to a 2002 report on bluff management strategies. “I researched the law at the time we bought it,” said Winkler, an attorney. “It was clear that both local and state law allow property like this to be protected.” An older seawall that protects a small portion of the land was there when he bought the house, Winkler said. He and his neighbor, Ronald Lucker, want to build a new wall that would link the older structure to another seawall to the south at Tide Park Beach. About 10 years ago, Winkler and Lucker paid for a project to fill two large sea caves at the foot of the bluffs to further stave off the waves. “Frankly, it’s a little nerve-wracking,” Winkler said. “The whole house will vibrate sometimes when there’s waves hitting the bluff.” Still, he said, he loves the location and, at age 62, he hopes to live there another 20 years or longer. The Solana Beach bluffs have two areas that are especially vulnerable to erosion. One is at sea level, where the waves eat away at the sandstone base of the cliffs at high tide and during storms. That’s what forms the sea caves and notches. The other area is a layer of clean sand higher up the cliffs, left from a beach 120,000 years ago, that can erode in the rain or collapse when undermined by a sea cave. “There’s a lot benefits to these seawalls,” Winkler said. Winkler said he owns the property below his house down to the toe of the bluff. So the wall will be built on his land, creating a wider public beach. Also, he said, seawalls protect people on the beach from sudden bluff failures.

Step 1: How to Choose What Jewelry to Keep The fine jewelry that you keep should be a mirror of your soul—one that reflects the interior design of your spirit. So before surveying your jewelry box, spend some time in quiet contemplation. Start by taking a financial and emotional inventory of where you are now in your life. Meditate on all of the things you love and why you love them. What do you still yearn for (financially & emotionally)? What in life continues to stir your passion in a positive way? Then think about what you dislike and the reasons for those feelings. After completing this personal meditation, slowly browse your fine jewelry box. While your entire collection may still be beautiful in your eyes, focus attention on your feelings. Take special note of those items which still excite you and bring a smile to your face—and which ones don’t. As you look at the jewelry from your past relationships or marriage, ask yourself what those items truly mean to you on the soul level. After a relationship has ended, an item like a diamond ring usually signifies a mixed bag of conflicting emotions: love & hate, joy & sadness, satisfaction & regret—all of which creates a dissonance that hinders our successful journey through life. Don’t let fine jewelry (or other expensive things) fetter you to the past when it is time to let go. It’s okay of course to keep mementos of old relationships to remind you of where you have been, but a photograph of a joyful moment can serve as a more vivid and useful reminder than fine jewelry. Let’s now turn our attention to your fashion-driven designer jewelry. Many professional women have a few items in their jewelry box which they view as “status” items. These are the earrings, necklaces, or bracelets that symbolize their full arrival into adulthood, successful careers, and mature relationships. Ask yourself whether these expensive accessories are still necessary to maintain your feelings of self-worth and accomplishment. Remember that life is a journey of evolution, not acquisition. Consider the wealth that is stored in your status jewelry, and whether or not you could use that money in ways that better fulfill your current dreams and aspirations. While taking inventory of the rest of your designer jewelry, remember that what you wear affects your experiences and how others experience you. Consider the style of the person you are today and the person you wish to be 5 years from now. The future “you” might include a return to past passions and interests—ones that were suppressed as you grew older. Therefore, you might decide that it’s the small, quirky, and inexpensive jewelry that you choose to keep, while the most expensive gold and diamond jewelry is placed on the sell pile.

Step 2: How to Sell the JewelryYou’veOutgrown Step 3: How to Spend the Money From Your Jewelry Sale After selecting which jewelry to keep and which to sell, you may have second thoughts about some items. That is understandable. Selling fine jewelry with strong sentimental value is never easy. To let go of your jewelry gracefully and without regrets, you must pay respect to all of the emotions (both positive and negative) that are attached to them. Never try to side-step second thoughts by quickly selling your jewelry just to “get it over with and move on.” Your jewelry may be gone, but the emotions fettering you to your past have not. For example, quickly selling your engagement ring and wedding band after a divorce will not release you from the emotional baggage that was/ is attached to them. You must deal with everything that jewelry symbolizes and means to you before letting it go. To help this process along, pick up your jewelry and hold it for a while. Acknowledge and try to fully understand every emotion that is tied to it, especially the negative ones (otherwise those emotions will remain unresolved). If the jewelry is from a broken relationship, don’t look to assign blame or stew over regrets. Simply honor the past and all it has taught you. Then with a forgiving heart release these emotions to make way for your continued growth. Once you have paid respect to the jewelry you are planning to sell, it’s time to honor the fine jewelry you plan to keep. The best way to honor your jewelry is not by hiding it away in a box. But by displaying it in a manner where you can see it daily—this is especially true of heirloom jewelry which you may rarely (if ever) wear. Explore jewelry box alternatives like small glass cases for individual items (which can be placed on shelves), jewelry trees, and armoires. Honoring the jewelry you have kept in this manner will make it even easier to let go of the jewelry that’s now on the sell pile. When it comes to choosing a jewelry buyer and receiving a fair cash offer, the quickest rule of thumb is to work only with those buyers who have a strong reputation, are registered with the Better Business Bureau, and provide free jewelry appraisals. Contact several of these buyers for a free appraisal and cash offer. Then choose the buyer who provides you with the best offer and makes you feel the most comfortable. For more detailed advice and tips, please visit our website DiamondEstate.com, which is filled with articles on how to sell fine jewelry, diamonds, and luxury watches, as well as how to leverage these gift assets for a fast cash loan.

Once you have sold your jewelry, it’s time to decide how to spend that money in a way that will enrich your life and/or the lives of your loved ones. Every tree starts with a seed, and the money you received from selling your old jewelry is the seed money for your future prosperity—both internally and externally. We can’t enrich ourselves emotionally and spiritually while stressing over debt. So, if you have any financial problems that must be resolved quickly, do take care of those first. Once your financial house is in order, try not to make any impulse decisions. Wait a while and meditate on all the possible ways you can use your cash windfall. Taking an overdue vacation is one way that some people use the money from the sale of their fine jewelry. And that is perfectly fine. Sometimes a vacation is what we really need to rediscover ourselves and rejuvenate our spirits. But also think more deeply about the ways in which you can use this money to fulfill “the real” you. Make a list of your primary interests and passions. Think about the things that you’ve always wished to become better at or try for the first time. For example, maybe you’ve always wanted to play the piano, hire a fitness trainer, or go skydiving. Or maybe you’ve always wanted to take your children on a “helping others” holiday in the developing world. Push the boundaries of what you are doing with your life! By doing so, you’ll not only enrich yourself, but others too. If you are ready to leverage the wealth stored in your fine jewelry box, please contact Diamond Estate Jewelry Buyers for a private consultation and verbal appraisal of your items. Our jewelry appraisals are completely free of charge, with no strings attached.

San Dieguito Union High School District Superintendent Rick Schmitt regularly updates the greater San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) community through the local media with a monthly update. Topics may include academics, facilities, budget, enrollment, safety, and other specific and special interest topics. Today’s update focuses on facilities, enrollment and staffing, and our collaboration with MiraCosta College. Facilities ince Proposition AA passed in 2012, SDUHSD has delivered on its promise to improve every campus in our district. We have over $270 million in construction projects completed, in-progress, or in the planning stages. With our focus on preparing students for 21st century colleges and careers, we have built new campuses and classrooms, modernized old schools, and added capacity to match our growing enrollment. This investment is adding value to our academics, arts and athletic programs and to our community. We are grateful for your support. We are currently planning to issue additional bonds this spring to provide funding for more needed and exciting projects to be planned over the next year: • New classroom building at Canyon Crest Academy • New science classrooms at Oak Crest Middle

School • Science and general classroom modernization at Diegueno Middle School • Performing Arts Center at Torrey Pines High School • Additional classroom building at Pacific Trails Middle School • Improving perimeter security and safe paths to school at several campuses • Solar energy projects at Oak Crest, Diegueno, Earl Warren and Pacific Trails middle schools Enrollment and Staffing We expect to see enrollment growth over the next few years as the economy continues to improve and new housing units are completed in Pacific Highlands Ranch. Our goal is to prepare schools for the increased number of students by building new, permanent facilities to avoid over-crowding. We will also see increased general fund revenue from the new students to hire teachers and cover other costs as we have returned to the state funding model based on average daily attendance. Adult Education Transition As part of the Governor’s restructuring of the adult education system in California, San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) Community Education and MiraCosta College have collaborated to create a comprehensive adult education plan to better serve the needs of

adults in the region. As a result, since August 2015 SDUHSD’s community education programs have slowly transitioned to MiraCosta College. This new shift has been approved by the Coastal North County Adult Education Consortium, MiraCosta College and SDUHSD. Supporting current adult SDUHSD students throughout this transition has been a priority. Our adult students range in age from 18 years old to senior citizens. Many current Adult Education instructors from SDUHSD will continue to teach the same classes, only now under the guidance of MiraCosta College. The last piece of the transition will take effect this summer when the community enrichment (or fee-based) classes currently offered by SDUHSD will be transitioned to MiraCosta College. Most of those classes will continue to be held in our community, including at all ten of our middle and high school campuses, local elementary schools, La Colonia Park and the Encinitas Library, to name a few locations. For the last 50 years, SDUHSD has been offering courses including senior fitness, watercolor, digital photography and foreign languages. Demand permitting, many of these same courses will be offered by MiraCosta College with potential for adding some new classes. Examples of recently added classes include English as a Second Language, adult high school diploma and classes for students with disabilities. SDUHSD and MiraCosta College staff are working to ensure the transition is as smooth as possible by making every effort to offer our adult students the same neighborhood access and quality instruction they have come to know through the San Dieguito Community Education program. We believe more adult students will be reached than ever before as we transition to the MiraCosta College program.

government officials and land managers to improve local mountain biking opportunities. IMBA’s visit to San Diego included a presentation on Feb. 26 about better living through trails and a classroom session for volunteers. The crew helped volunteers learn about sustainable trail building techniques that work to create a lasting trail that requires minimal maintenance. Volunteers included mountain bikers from SDMBA, some equestrians and hikers — even some trail developers visiting from Oregon and Washington helped out on the large Feb. 27 work day. Pardee provided funding for the work and lunch for the workers. A developer and a trail user group working together on a project is an ideal partnership, Wyandt said. “(User groups) used to have a more anti-development stance. Now they realize that you can work with the developer and get them to recognize the values of trails and the benefits and features of single-track trails as opposed to wide, uninspiring trails (like service roads),” Wyandt said. In taking more of an integrative approach, he said user groups can have an influence on mitigations for trails that may be taken away for development and on building more trails, he said. “We’re excited to partner in legal, legitimate trails that will be maintained and that we will continue to have access to,” Wyandt said.

day includes meetings, practice, conditioning, recovery, lunch, watching film, weight training, more recovery, more practice and more conditioning. It’s stressful, strenuous work and a tough full time job she’s held since 2014 but she says she wouldn’t trade it for a desk job. Right now there are 24 women in the U.S. team player pool. That group will be cut down at the end of March and then to the final Olympic roster of 12 players in July. Injuries play a big role as rosters are whittled and the goal is to continue to stay healthy. Javelet tore her ACL in 2014 and successfully survived the long, grueling recovery process. “When you overcome that, you feel like you can do anything,” she said. Next up for Javelet and the national team is The Atlanta 7s, an international rugby tournament and the U.S. stop on a global tour featuring 12 of the best women’s sevens rugby teams from around the world on April 8-9. They will follow that back to back with the Canada Women’s Sevens in British Columbia April 16-17. After experiencing the disappointment of not making the Olympic team for field hockey, Javelet said to have a chance for a comeback is unbelievable. “It would be the realization of a childhood dream, it’s kind of surreal to be this close,” Javelet said. “It would mean so much to have the opportunity to represent the country and try to bring back a medal to make my family, friends and country proud.”

gathering. Carvalho said what is most frightening about hearing loss in adolescents is that it can often go undetected. Kids with hearing loss may struggle socially because they cannot hear and in school they may be incorrectly diagnosed as having ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) or being lazy. In reality they are not responding because they cannot hear and aren’t able to understand. With any degree of hearing loss, it can be very confusing when in a room with lots of people talking, like a classroom. “It really is a big issue because with high frequency hearing loss it’s hard to listen to the teacher and it’s tiring because they’re using more energy to understand,” Carvalho said. As most kids don’t like sitting in the front of the classroom, they are less likely to move closer if they are having trouble hearing. “It’s something that we need to monitor.” To combat hearing loss now and in the future, Carvalho said there are several “healthy listening habits” that parents can encourage in their children. Ear buds are her number one targets.

Carvalho said the problem with ear buds is that they often don’t fit inside kids’ ears properly so kids have a tendency to “crank up the volume.” “Headphones are better because they go around the ear and can muffle the sound around them so they don’t need to increase the volume as much,” Carvalho said. She said often parents limit the amount of screen time their children have and they should also limit sound time as well. “We use the rule of 60-60,” Carvalho said. “Kids should not be listening to electronic devices with headphones for longer than 60 minutes at a time, ideally not more than 60 minutes a day, and at less than 60 percent of the maximum output of the device.” Carvalho said teens usually hate her when she shows parents that there is a way to lock the volume of devices so it cannot exceed 60 percent output. At any loud events, such as concerts, Carvalho advises the use of ear plugs. Taking on healthy listening habits now, both children and parents alike, can help limit the damage in the future. As Carvalho’s patients can attest, the ability to hear is a joy and one that shouldn’t be taken for granted.

FROM WATER, A1 The proposed rate plan restructures the way the district calculates its bills, increasing the proportion of revenue collected from fixed meter charges, which don’t fluctuate with the amount of water a customer uses. Therefore, the impact on customers’ bills varies substantially, from those who are receiving a large percentage increase, to a significant band of customers who will actually see their bills go down, according to figures released by the district. Customers who use 150 units of water over two months, which is slightly below the district average, would see their bi-monthly bills rise 10.1 percent, from $617.37 to $680.03, under the proposed rate plan. The variance in the impact on customers is one of the reasons cited by Gruzdowich and King for their opposition to the plan. Gruzdowich said that under the plan, those who use a lot of water will see their bills jump by 20 to 25 percent. Conversely, those who use the least amount of water will also face a large percentage increase in their bills, because of the higher fixed charges. The plan, for those lower-use customers, is “incredibly regressive,” said King, while she, as a resident of Fairbanks Ranch, will pay less. “I don’t think I should be getting a reduced rate.” Board members who support the plan, as well as district general manager Michael Bardin, said it was designed after completion of a comprehensive cost of service study, which analyzed the district’s revenue needs and sought to apportion costs fairly among customers. “I think the process has been fair,” said board president Michael Hogan. “There’s a significant impact to all customers... not just the big users,” Bardin said. Bardin also emphasized the district’s need for new revenue. “It’s absolutely critical to raise rates now,” he said. “We have all these needs. It’s time to do it.”

Under state law, the district is required to go through a series of steps to raise its rates. They began with the cost of service study, and include the public notice that will soon be mailed out. The mailing begins a 45-day comment period, culminating with the public hearing. According to district spokeswoman Jessica Parks, there are approximately 15,000 properties within the district, which serves Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Fairbanks Ranch. If the owners of a majority of those properties, representative of about 7,500 parcels, submit written protests of the rate plan, the board would be blocked from enacting the new rates, Parks said. The written protests must include the property address and a hand-written signature, Parks said. Only one protest per parcel will be counted. King sought to include the protest coupon in the public notice, similar to one sent out by the city of San Diego when it was deliberating on water rate increases. “That says we’re comfortable with what we’ve done and we’re giving you a clear, easy way to say you disagree,” King said. But Bardin said the addition could delay an approval process that has already been pushed back by several months. Also, he said, the coupon would contradict a position held by staff and a board majority, that the proposed rate increase is fair and much-needed. “I think it runs contrary to what we’re trying to do,” Bardin said. Board member Augie Daddi, one of the three members who have voted to support the rate plan, also opposed including the protest coupon with the public notice. Addressing King, he said, “It appears you are trying to find another way to get this turned down. That’s how it appears to me.” The community forums on the rate plan will be held at the district office, 5920 Linea Del Cielo, Rancho Santa Fe, at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 14; 10 a.m. on Wednesday, April 20; and 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 26. The full cost of service study can be viewed on the district web site, www.sfidwater.org.

Falcons Elite 7th Grade Cardinal team wins championship

alcons Elite 7th Grade Cardinal team recently won the San Diego Sol League Basketball Championship. The team was undefeated (11-0) for the season. (Front, R to L) Holten Garrison, Joey Stack, Gui Saldivar, Cooper Whitton, Gage Helfrich, Woocheol Kim, Rayhan Cochinwala; (Back, R to L) Coach JJ, Brull, Coach Griffin Jimenez, Coach Tanner McEntee, Andrew Yoon, Dylan Johnson, Coach Nich Diaz and Coach Jake Gilliam.

FROM STREETS, A1 “It can be very foggy, the road is curvy and the visibility is very low,” resident Jessica Jensen said. “Because of the topography of the road, it’s challenging to see very far in either direction.” The board’s recommendation for the traffic calming measure will be forwarded on to the city. Steven Hadley, representative for San Diego City Council President Sherri Lightner, said she is very supportive of the neighbors’ efforts and would be happy to do whatever the board requested. Hadley estimated that the stop sign and crosswalk could be installed within the next few months. Planning board chair Kathryn Burton said the planning board first attempted to get a stop sign at this location over six years ago but the city would not support it at the time. “I’m so grateful to hear that there is an opportunity to revisit this decision and a path to move forward,” Burton said. Neighbors Jensen and Ella Tour presented their case for the stop sign and crosswalk. Jensen said the distance between the two existing stop signs on East Ocean Air is .9 miles. There are at least 100 homes along the ridge of East Ocean Air whose residents would cross the street to Torrey Hills School and Torrey Hills Community Park, where a walking path connects the school, park and the Los Penasquitos Canyon trail. “This is a very long gap and especially for families, it makes it really challenging to cross the street,” Jensen said. “There are two paved pathways with a road cutting through the middle and no way to connect.”

Walking down to the nearest light adds an additional 16 minutes, which deters many people from walking to school. According to Tour, Torrey Hills Principal Monica Sorenson said that she would be in support of a shorter, safer walk that would encourage students to walk to school and help alleviate the school’s very congested parking lot. Jensen noted that the recent addition of 484 new housing units in Torrey Gardens and Ocean Air Apartment Homes on East Ocean Air has brought hundreds more cars using the street as a main thoroughfare, as well as a lot more pedestrians. Two recent traffic studies were conducted by the city in October 2015 and February 2016 and both concluded that due to the high speeds, a crosswalk alone would not be safe. The study showed 54 percent of cars drive higher than the posted speed limit of 35 miles per hour and the maximum recorded speed came in at 71 miles per hour—“basically the freeway,” Jensen said. “A stop sign and crosswalk combination is needed to ensure cars slow down, come to a complete stop and observe pedestrians trying to cross,” Jensen said. In addition to the crosswalk and stop signs, the board also requested that the city install signage warning of an upcoming stop. The board’s unanimous vote was met with applause from the residents in attendance. “This is really good news for our neighborhood,” Burton said. “We do have a really nice pedestrian loop around our community and it would be made much more pleasant if the traffic were slower and there were more areas to cross. Now we’re making some headway.”

www.delmartimes.net FROM CIVIC CENTER, A3 First, a single-level garage could save the city up to $500,000. It would also eliminate a steep ramp and reduce the amount of excavation needed during construction. The elevator would only need to go down one level and the stairs could be naturally lit, she said, so the single-level garage would also improve pedestrian circulation. Additionally, it would accommodate egress onto 10th Street, if the council moves forward with requests from neighbors, and it would increase operational efficiencies. “I think that some of the benefits are significant and they should not be minimized — the first of which it looks like we could save a half a million dollars,” said Councilman Al

FROM DEL MAR, A1 project. “It’s not uncommon for the speeders (on Jimmy Durante Boulevard) to exceed 40 mph approaching 50 mph at this intersection and that is the major reason, I think, that we need to make an improvement,” said Corti, who lives on Jimmy Durante Boulevard. “I walk that intersection, I go through it on my bicycle, I go through it on my motorcycle and I drive through it all the time, and it is a dangerous intersection, especially coming out of San Dieguito Drive.” Located just southwest of the Del Mar Fairgrounds, the proposed roundabout will be about 100 feet in diameter with a 64-foot inner circle. The project will also include curbs, gutters, pedestrian ramps, sidewalks and landscaping to slow speeds and improve safety. In February, the city’s Traffic and Parking Advisory Committee voted to recommend a roundabout at the intersection. During the meeting, Public Works Director Eric Minicilli explained the project stemmed from the long-established community plan, which calls for citywide improvements that discourage vehicles and make Del Mar more bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly. “There was a desire to see reduced speeds in the community, to make it safer for pedestrians and bicyclists,” Minicilli said. “That has always been a Del Mar goal, as far as I know, and it’s always been communicated to staff from council that that is something the folks in Del Mar want to see happen.” The intersection is already frequently used by pedestrians during the fair, racing season and special events. The city completed sidewalk improvements along the southeast portion of Jimmy Durante Boulevard toward the intersection last year. River Path Del Mar is also currently being extended and is expected to be completed in May. “One of our jobs as council members is to ensure the safety of the community, and that is a dangerous crossing,” said Councilman Don Mosier. “I think the roundabout is the best alternative for that and there’s lots of statewide and national data supporting the safety of roundabouts.” Still, some nearby residents said a roundabout doesn’t make sense for the intersection. The posted speed limit is 40 mph on Jimmy Durante Boulevard and the

Corti. He also reminded his colleagues that the city had already lost some of the 160 spaces when an entryway was added and one of the expansion areas was expanded in the design plans. “I think this is moving in the right direction,” agreed Councilman Don Mosier. “I think eliminating that steep ramp not only saves cost, but it wasn’t going to function very well.” The council voted unanimously to direct staff to further study and prepare an administrative design modification for consideration at a later date. The modification should have no impact on the project schedule. In fact, City Manager Scott Huth said it could actually “speed up construction” when the project is in the building phase. roundabout is designed to reduce speeds to 15-20 mph, staff explained. “Down at the Beach Colony, it fits,” said Annette Wiesel, who lives nearby. “People go slow there. They have a stop sign every block. A roundabout would keep the flow. They wouldn’t have to stop. “Jimmy Durante is different,” she added. “Jimmy Durante is designed to have traffic move in and out of Del Mar at 40 mph. … A signal-controlled traffic light, I think, is more effective at keeping the traffic flowing on Jimmy Durante because that’s what Jimmy Durante was designed to do.” Others worried that the roundabout would make it even more difficult to leave their residences and merge onto the road, especially during the fair and racing seasons. “I have no way in or out except for that one road,” said resident Beth Westberg. “When it backs up coming south on Jimmy Durante, guess what? It’s backed up heading north. I have no way to get into my house. So I’m very disappointed in your vote. “Since you think my travel plans aren’t going to be hampered, is it OK if I call you when I sit in traffic?” she asked. “We can chat, so I have something to do while I’m sitting at the intersection. I’ll call each one of you, and I’ll make sure everybody else does, too.” As part of the council’s decision to approve the roundabout, Councilman Dwight Worden proposed working with the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which runs the state-owned fairgrounds, to manage traffic at the intersection during events at the fairgrounds. The city doesn’t control the Del Mar Fairgrounds, but it does control Jimmy Durante Boulevard, so Del Mar issues permits for traffic control. Del Mar will offer additional traffic control personnel when necessary. The city will also establish a hotline for residents to call to report traffic problems at the intersection. “I feel my main obligation is to our people, who live in Del Mar, to make sure that they can navigate to get out of their homes and out of the canyon,” Worden said. “I think if we impose those conditions, we solve the problem that remains.” His colleagues agreed, and included the conditions in their vote. The roundabout’s design is expected to be completed by summer. Construction is scheduled to begin in November and completed by February 2017.

Del Mar Community Connections celebrates van donation BY KRISTINA HOUCK heelchair-bound residents will have a new way around the city, thanks to an anonymous donation to Del Mar Community Connections. The local nonprofit celebrated the launch of the “Foxy Flyer,” a wheelchair-accessible van made possible by a bequest from an anonymous donor, during a ribbon-cutting ceremony March 19 at the Del Mar Community Building. “For the first time, we have a vehicle that will allow us to offer transportation services to folks that are in wheelchairs,” said Tom McGreal, board president of DMCC. “We’re very excited about that. It’s an important step in expanding the transportation program that DMCC has right now.” Founded in 1999, DMCC provides programs and services that allow local seniors to live independently and safely in their homes. The nonprofit already has one van, but it is not a wheelchair-accessible vehicle. As part of its transportation services, DMCC shuttles residents to local grocery stores every Wednesday. DMCC also offers scheduled rides to local destinations and special events. Del Mar residents who are 62 or older and/or disabled can also purchase coupon books with vouchers for taxi rides at the DMCC office. Additionally, the nonprofit has a volunteer driver program, where volunteers use their own vehicles to drive residents to doctor’s appointments. DMCC reimburses the volunteer drivers for mileage. “Each of those adds up to about 400 rides per year,” McGreal said. “We’re always looking for riders, and we’re always looking for volunteer drivers,” he added. “This is one of those essential services that DMCC provides to the community.” The new van allows DMCC to serve more people, but also people they couldn’t accommodate before. “One of the biggest challenges for us is to get word out to the community that we now have this van — that we can reach people who are in wheelchairs and may need a little extra help,” said board member Terry Kopanski. The ADA-approved van can accommodate as many as six passengers, or one wheelchair-bound passenger and four additional passengers, or two wheelchair-bound passengers and three additional passengers. The van is also equipped with other safety features, including a first aid kit, fire extinguisher,

who attended the event, along with Councilman Al Corti. San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts cut the ribbon during the ceremony. During the third Friday of every

month, he comes to the Del Mar Community Building to meet with community members. “The County of San Diego can’t do it all itself, we have to partner with great community organizations,” Roberts said. “Since I’ve been in office ... Del Mar Community Connections has been a great partner. “One of the most important ways for people to stay independent is to have transportation alternatives,” he added. “This is going to add another alternative for folks in Del Mar.” The van is named in honor of the donor, an active member of the community who utilized DMCC’s transportation services. A private pilot, “Foxy Flyer” was her nickname. Nancy Parker, cousin and trustee of the donor’s estate, christened the van with a bottle of Champagne. The bequest not only funded the purchase of the van, but will support the program. “Thank you for making my cousin’s dream come true,” said Parker, who visited Del Mar from Tucson, Arizona. “This is very exciting.” For more information about DMCC, visit www.dmcc.cc

UCSD alumni stage play on the sand at the Shores BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT For three days in April, a Los Angeles-based group of UC San Diego Theater Department alumni will give you a new reason to go to the beach. It’s a plein-air performance of “Second Skin,” an award-winning play that will take place around a fire pit on the sands of La Jolla Shores at sunset, April 1-3. Originally presented on campus as part of last year’s Wagner New Play Festival, “Second Skin” was written by Kristin Idaszak, who is currently a Jerome Fellow at the Playwrights Center in Minneapolis, an organization that helped launch the careers of writers like August Wilson and Lee Blessing. In 2013, while Idaszak was enroute to an MFA in Playwriting at UCSD, her play, “A Willow Grows Aslant: An Ophelia Story,” was part of the first Without Walls (WoW) Festival at La Jolla Playhouse. In it, audiences were led into a modern, girl’s-eye view of “Hamlet,” following the troubled Ophelia and her not-so-supporting cast through the narrow basement corridors of the Theater and Dance Department and her own increasingly desperate mind. The director of that play, Kate Jopson, is now the director of “Second Skin,” which is about another troubled, not-quite-so-young woman, who after years of estrangement, returns home to care for her dying mother. This sounds like a very personal mother-daughter piece, but there’s an underlying strangeness that shapes it. On the beach, the tale of buried secrets and memories will have the feeling of ghost stories told around a campfire, suggesting a time long

‘Second Skin’ brings fireside theater to La Jolla Shores beach April 1-3. before plays were staged inside buildings, when theater was a deeply communal experience for storytellers and listeners. In fact, these things are what attracted Kate Jopson to “Second Skin.” “There’s a dramatic pulse underneath it that’s

like a ghost story,” she said in a recent interview. “And we’re staging it at sunset, so as the play gets darker and scarier, the sky will be growing dark, and we’ll be using the natural lighting of the world as one of our lighting effects, with the audience huddled around the

fire.” UCSD-MFA Jopson, whose academic background also includes anthropology, dance and Arabic, believes in theater that creates a sense of community. “I grew up in a small town of about 700 people, so I took community for granted — people looking after each other, transcending any differences between them,” she said. “And that’s what I want to do with theater, gather a community of people together to create something, and then bring more people together to see real, live humans sharing an environment, a story, an experience, obliterating distance and distilling complicated life into something beautiful and hopeful.” “Second Skin” is actually a co-production of two groups of UCSD Theater alumni, The West, “a multimedia storytelling collective,” and Kate Jopson’s Flagship Ensemble, “a haven for experimental theater with a focus on the interactions of humans and nature.” This will be their premiere of the show, which goes on to Santa Monica and Santa Barbara.

North Coast Repertory Theatre

Season 35 is a rich collection of stage gems

La Jolla Cultural Partners

FROM NCRT REPORTS The intimate North Coast Repertory Theatre announces it 35th Season, with comedy, family drama, a heartfelt musical and a magical journey — productions selected by Artistic Director David Ellenstein. The season opens Sept. 7, with A.R. Gurney’s “The Cocktail Hour.” Mix two upperclass New Englanders, their over-privileged adult children and endless cocktails for a delightfully intoxicating evening of comedy. John arrives for dinner at his parents’ home carrying his provocative script in hand, which leaves the family “shaken and stirred.” Rosina Reynolds directs. On stage through Oct. 2. “Laughter on the 23rd Floor,” opens Oct. 19. It’s a Neil Simon gem, a love letter to his early career as a writer for Sid Caesar’s “Your Show of Shows.” Simon recounts his writing, fighting and wacky antics during days of live television when he cavorted with such comedy legends as Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks. It runs through Nov. 13, directed by Geoffrey Sherman. A finalist for the 2015 Pulitzer Prize, “Marjorie Prime,” by Jordan Harrison is set in the near future, a time when artificial intelligence has reached new heights, and lifelike robots provide companionship for the lonely. This smart, thought-provoking play about memory is guaranteed to inspire stimulating conversations; a San Diego premiere, directed by Matthew Wiener, Jan. 11, 2017 through Feb. 5, 2017.

COURTESY PHOTOS

Next, Ellenstein directs “The Illusion,” by playwright Tony Kushner, freely adapted from Pierre Corneille’s L’Illusion Comique, Feb. 22 through March 19. This wildly inventive tour-de-force, celebrates the magic and illusory nature of theatre. Ellenstein also directs, “Travels With My Aunt,” by Graham Greene (adapted by Giles Havergal), April 12, 2017-May 7, 2017. Eccentric Aunt Augusta swoops in and shakes up the life of her staid bourgeois nephew. She ignites the lust for adventure that is buried within his gray flannel soul. Four highly versatile actors tackle more than 20 roles in this life-changing, offbeat odyssey. Definitely a trip worth taking! On May 31, “The Spitfire Grill” opens, with book and music by James Valcq, lyrics

and book by Fred Alley. It’s based on a film by Lee David Zlotoff, and directed by Jeffrey Moss. Honest and emotional, it tells the engaging tale of a young woman with an uncertain past. Onstage through June 25. The season ends with the San Diego premiere of “At This Evening’s Performance,” by Nagle Jackson, July 12, 2017-Aug. 6, 2017, directed by Andrew Barnicle. This uproarious comedy concerns a bohemian theater troupe that finds themselves performing in an Eastern European police state. However, there is more drama backstage than onstage, with romantic entanglements, political intrigue and a wildly funny climax. The holiday show will be the return engagement of “The Girl Singers of the

Hit Parade,” Dec. 6-23. Featuring Jennifer Grimm, Colleen Raye and Sophie Grimm, The Girl Singers will perform holiday songs of the ‘50s including “Santa Baby,” and “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” as well as favorites to sing-a-long to like “Winter Wonderland” “Silver Bells” and others in the stylings of The Andrews Sisters, Lennon Sisters and McGuire Sisters. “The Girls” will also be celebrating the music of Hanukah. For those young at heart or just young, there’s a “Frozen” Medley. ■ IF YOU GO: North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive (in the Lomas Santa Fe Plaza shopping center), Solana Beach, is an Equity theater, founded in 1982 by Olive and Tom Blakistone.

Local attorney provides personalized estate planning services Death is a difficult subject. That’s why many people put off estate planning and trusts until it’s too late. “Even attorneys who specialize in estate planning put off making changes to their plans,” said local attorney Dale Fields Rhett. “It’s just human nature. It’s not something you really want to think about.” Rhett, an estate planning and trust attorney, whose office is located in Carmel Valley, makes the process as easy as possible for her clients — often working with them in the comfort of their own homes. She created this concierge approach about six years ago. Her hands-on services sets her apart from others, she said. It comes from an understanding of the needs of her clients, some who are elderly, homebound due to disability, have small children or simply prefer not to go to an office. Working closely with her clients, Rhett takes the time to thoroughly and thoughtfully personalize their plans. Every situation presents a unique challenge, she said, comparing estate planning to a puzzle. “People think estate planning is cut and dry for everyone, but every situation is different,” Rhett said. “I am very careful not to sell forms. That’s not what interests me. That’s not what I do.

“I’m more interested in helping people make choices about what they want in their estate plans,” she added. “You really cannot have it all, in most cases. You have to make choices.” People should start thinking about estate planning and trusts when they have their first child, Rhett said. The discussion often does not come up until marriage or divorce or when a parent dies. “You realize life — how important it is,” Rhett said. “But if you think about it when

you have that child and you get it done, you’ll be very glad that you did.” And just because you create a plan doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go back to it. In fact, you should review your plan. Often. “You cannot plan for every eventuality, but reviewing your estate plan frequently and paying attention to the news for any changes or any new issues that appear to be on the horizon is a good idea,” Rhett said. Another reason to start thinking about estate planning? Inflation and property values are on the rise. “Those two things, I think, are going to have a large impact on estate planning,” Rhett said. California homeowners and people with high-value assets, particularly, need specialized, personalized care, she said. People might think that they are under the federal state tax limit right now, but it doesn’t mean they will be when they die, Rhett said. Additionally, the cost of old age is going up, she said, so people should begin thinking about long-term care insurance when they retire or even before they retire. “It’s an important thing to think about before you are priced out of the market by your age,” she said. Above all else, Rhett recommends those thinking about estate planning and trusts to

interview at least two or three different attorneys before making a decision, and to not make a decision based on cost — unless you have nothing to lose. “If you really have no assets and you don’t own a piece of real estate, that’s fine,” Rhett said. “If you own a home and you have assets — and especially if you have children that are minor or disabled — make sure you get an attorney that you feel comfortable with. That might not be the best attorney for someone else.” A graduate of Washington and Lee University School of Law, Rhett started practicing law in 1996. In addition to estate planning, she assists clients with business succession planning, as well as adoptions and prenuptial agreements and centers on non-litigation. She also supports clients who have disabled adult children or minor children in need of spendthrift trusts. Rhett’s office is located at 12526 High Bluff Drive, Suite 300, Carmel Valley.

Charming, coastal community La Vida Del Mar offers residents choices Life doesn’t stop when it’s time to transition to a senior living community. In fact, those at Senior Resource Group believe life should only improve with age. That’s why residents of La Vida Del Mar in Solana Beach, a property owned by SRG, spend their days playing pool, reading a book, watching a movie, swimming, shopping — or doing it all. “Just because you might need to make a move from your existing home into a senior living community doesn’t mean that life ends for you,” said Donna Thomas, director of corporate communications for SRG. “The key to living is choices. What SRG communities are all about is providing folks with choices for living.” Nestled between the villages of Del Mar and Rancho Santa Fe, La Vida Del Mar offers 105 one- and two-bedroom residences. Units come with fully equipped kitchenettes, air conditioning and heating, spacious en suite baths with safety features, walk-in closets, patios or balconies with storage space, and covered and onsite parking. “It’s really a stunning community,” Thomas said, pointing to the small size of the charming, coastal community. “It just works beautifully there. It’s very neighborly.” Minutes away from beaches, the Del Mar Racetrack, gourmet dining options and

full-service beauty salon and barbershop, and landscaped courtyards, walking paths and outdoor covered seating. “The whole idea of senior living is that while your residence might be a little smaller than the home that you transitioned from,

the rest of the community becomes an extension of your home,” Thomas said. Health and fitness classes, including aquatic exercises, are available, as well as social, cultural and recreational programs and activities. All utilities are included in the community’s monthly fee, including air conditioning, heating, water, trash removal, basic telephone, and cable TV. Others services included are meals, weekly housekeeping and flat linen laundry service, 24-hour emergency call system, 24-hour onsite staffing, scheduled group transportation, and maintenance. “You have access to all these various conveniences and services and activities and programs right outside your front door,” Thomas said. “You have everything. It’s all inclusive.” La Vida Del Mar is SRG’s flagship community. The company started when it took over the ownership of the senior living community in February 1988. La Vida Del Mar opened in July 1987. “It was our first community and we still have it,” Thomas said. “It’s beautiful.” SRG currently serves more than 4,000 retirees in 18 retirement communities across the United States.

FROM LA VIDA, B8 Diego County, SRG has housing communities in Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia and Oregon. In addition to La Vida Del Mar in Solana Beach, SRG has La Vida Real, located within the East County community of Rancho San Diego. La Vida Real opened in July 2003. With rich Spanish-village style architecture and interior design, the community offers 353 alcove, one- and two-bedroom residences. “It’s an award-winning community,” Thomas said. “It truly sets the tone for senior living in San Diego East and South County.” Both La Vida Del Mar and La Vida Real offer independent living and assisted living. SRG became the first major senior living provider in the United States to earn company-wide accreditation by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities in 2004. CARF is recognized as the leading independent accreditation body for providers of health and

human services. La Vida Del Mar also became one of the first senior living communities in the U.S. to achieve accreditation for both independent living and assisted living. “Should their needs change, we are licensed to allow folks to be able to stay right within their apartment and receive whatever in-home care services they need without having to move,” Thomas explained. “If they don’t need any of those services, fine, they don’t have to use them. But if they do, they’re readily available and accessible, because the community is licensed to provide assisted living care.” La Vida Real also offers memory care for people living with Alzheimer’s or dementia. La Vida Del Mar is located at 850 Del Mar Downs Road in Solana Beach. For more about La Vida Del Mar, call 858-314-8757 or visit www.srgseniorliving.com.

Mitchell Thorp Foundation:

Helping critically ill children, families Sunshine and Giving Hearts showed up for the 7th Annual Hearts for Hope 5K Run/Walk held on Feb. 6 at Poinsettia Park, Carlsbad. More than 1,000 walkers, runners, and spectators came to participate or simply donated raising over $174,000 for the Mitchell Thorp Foundation (MTF), which will go towards the programs that MTF provides for children and families suffering from life-threatening illnesses, diseases and disorders. Programs include: “Medical & Home Assistance; Healing & Rehabilitation; Conversion Van Mobility; and Youth Leadership.” Brad and Beth Thorp started the foundation seven year ago when their 18-year son Mitchell died after suffering a painful, undiagnosed illness for five years. “The community came out for when Mitchell was still with us and did a walkathon to help us raise money to pay off all our medical bills.” Humbled by this experience, Brad Thorp said, “It is our way to pay it forward and to help other families who are struggling and going through what we went through.” The foundation has tripled in growth and programs offered. Beth Thorp said, “We pay the vendors directly to make sure the funds are going directly where they are intended to go to help the child, sibling support and family assistance.” From every dollar donated, 85 cents goes directly to the children

MTF has worldwide exposure getting children to various hospitals and specialist around the world for treatments,” Beth Thorp said. In addition to the wonderful support of the participants and sponsors (Caruso Affiliated, Independent

Financial Group, Datron and NRG were the major sponsors), the event was non-stop entertainment and fun. There was the timed Kid Ventures Obstacle Course, presented by the San Diego Gulls, music by the Dr. Dr. Band, free food, vendors and an incredible sky jump by three ex-Navy Seals floating down from the sky to the National Anthem and Proud to Be an American to kick off the race.

Summer Discoveries Day Camp 2016

It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature on April Fools’ or any other day

or centuries before Gregor Mendel was tinkering with pea plants and establishing laws of inheritance, farmers were experimenting with assorted fruits and vegetables to improve the varieties within the species. We have crunchier, tangier apples, sweeter cherries, and watermelons without annoying seeds. Scientists also started cross breeding different species to create a completely new fruit or vegetable. These methods enhanced our lives with some remarkable hybrids, including broccolini (blending broccoli and Chinese kale), the pluot (cross-pollinating a plum and an apricot), and even the mandarin and other orange varieties. But since chemical giants like Monsanto and DuPont started interfering with Mother Nature and good Old MacDonald we have crossed into the realm that had only previously been approached by Dr. Frankenstein. Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO’s) have been created by cutting and pasting genes from one organism into the genome of another, along with manipulating gene sequences and changing command codes. Among some GMO monsters are bacteria and viruses ensconced in our food supply. More and more sources are linking GMO’s to allergies, asthma, cancer and other ills. With April Fools’ around the corner, here are some of the latest pranks on nature. This is no joke. Upsetting the Apple Cart The non-browning “Arctic” apple created from our neighbors to the north does not oxidize when sliced, so it keeps its fresh color for hours in lunch boxes, at restaurant or cafeteria buffets or in pre-sliced ready-to-eat snack bags. While this eliminates the use of chemicals like calcium ascorbate to prevent discoloration, it puts the apple’s wholesome integrity into question. When scientists injected extra gene copies into the apple’s DNA, the overload caused a shut down of the enzyme (polyphenol oxidase) responsible for the browning trait. But really a simple squirt of lemon juice would do the trick. Guinea Pig Scientists have created the “Frankenswine” by tampering with the pig’s genes so that it can more efficiently digest and process environmentally-damaging phosphorous from its feed. The pig embryo is injected with E. Coli bacteria and DNA from a mouse to produce excrement with reduced amounts of the mineral. Doesn’t sound kosher to me. Pick your Poison When strange bedfellows mate like a poisonous predator and a humble crucifer you have a species of cabbage that can kick caterpillars to the curb. Bioscientists from Beijing transferred genes from a scorpion’s venomous sacs into the genome of a cabbage to ward off pests without the necessity of using herbicides. They claim the “transgenic” vegetable is safe for human consumption. Scorpion slaw, if you please. Milk of Human Kindness Scientists in China have genetically modified Holstein dairy cows by transferring human DNA into the bovine genome. Now Bossy’s milk has similar immune boosting properties along with other nutritional qualities as breast milk. Opening a Can of Worms DNA from the Chinook salmon along with an

COURTESY OF JIMBO’S... NATURALLY

antifreeze gene from an eel-like creature is implanted into the Atlantic salmon to accelerate its growth by almost two-fold. The manipulation of genes will allow the salmon to grow during its typical dormant winter stage, reaching its full size within 18 months rather than three years. Sounds fishy to me. That’s Cracked British scientists have tinkered with the genes of chickens to allow them to lay eggs containing proteins with the capabilities of warding off diseases from diabetes and arthritis to tooth decay and even cancer. Chemo omelet, anyone? Something Seedy The seeds of the plum tomato are now being altered to amp up yield of the fruit. By reprogramming the command gene in the seed’s DNA to increase the flower output, the plant will produce a substantial increase in tomatoes. While scientists are meddling with genes that create potentially harmful foods, I wish they would develop bloat-free beans and legumes, low cholesterol shrimp and lobster, and red wine and coffee that don’t stain the teeth! Now my GMO-free contribution is this tasty and heart healthy salmon burger that you’ll fall for hook, line and sinker. No kidding. For comments email kitchenshrink@san.rr.com.

Savory Salmon Burgers (where possible, use organics) •1 pound fresh salmon filet, skin removed (wild-caught preferred) •1 teaspoon olive oil, and extra for pan-frying or grilling •1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice •1 teaspoon Dijon mustard •1 teaspoon mayonnaise •1 shallot, minced •1 teaspoon capers •Salt and cayenne pepper to taste •Japanese Panko breadcrumbs for desired texture ■ Place salmon in food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add oil, juice, mustard, mayo, shallots, capers and seasonings, and pulse until blended well. Still pulsing, add breadcrumbs until the mixture becomes a firm texture for forming patties. Mold into 1/3-pound patties. Grill or pan-fry the burgers in a well-oiled skillet. Cook for about 7 minutes on each side until done. Serve on a toasted brioche bun.

SPONSORED COLUMNS DR. VAN CHENG San Diego Vein Institute 760.994.9263

The Elderly and Varicose Veins: Added Risk, Simple Treatment One of the great complaints of aging is how the body slows down, either because of mobility issues or compromised circulation. Because of this decreased mobility, health issues can arise—for example, leg ulcers, which are especially problematic and can be debilitating in some cases. The cause of a leg ulcer is high pressure in the superﬁcial leg veins for one of two reasons: 1, valve failure in these superﬁcial veins, which we call varicose veins, or 2,

damage to the deeper veins in the leg (often the result of deep vein thrombosis). An especially compromised part of the leg is just above the ankle, where the blood that’s being pushed back up the leg is at its lowest, and often its narrowest, point. While there are various theories as to why the high pressure causes skin damage, the general idea is that substances leak out of the vein and collect under the skin at the ankle, which causes inﬂammation and skin deterioration. Signs to look for If you’re concerned about a potential leg ulcer, check your skin for dryness over or near the anklebone, especially on the inside of your leg. This is a particularly vulnerable spot as there is no ﬂesh between the skin and the bone to offer added protection. The dryness that appears can cause venous eczema, an itchy sensation (with some discoloration of the skin), referred to as haemosiderin deposition or

lipodermatosclerosis. Oftentimes, symptoms will be present for years before an actual ulcer develops. Treatment options The key is to treat this condition early on, which can reduce the chance of an ulcer. Vein ulcers are painful and debilitating, putting a person’s independence at risk as well. Waiting until an ulcer breaks out can take months or even years to heal, requiring ongoing special treatments and compression bandaging. There is even the risk that some ulcers will never heal in certain patients. Vein specialists can scan the leg veins to ﬁnd any valve problems and decide the best approach to take. In prevention, most treatments include the usual outpatient, minimally-invasive therapy used for varicose and spider veins, either foam sclerotherapy or laser. Because both are done in the ofﬁce, elderly patients don’t have to undergo the more serious general anesthesia, which could compromise their

health in a variety of ways. Prevention at any age As with all vein conditions, retaining (and maintaining) mobility is an essential part of leg health. While a workout routine may be difﬁcult to keep up in more advanced age, it is important to pursue activities that can move the legs, either by low-paced walking, low-impact water aerobics, yoga, or other stretching poses that can stimulate circulation in the legs. And as always, consider compression stockings to help with that blood ﬂow. If you’re at risk of a leg ulcer and want a consultation, or you’re ready to remove your spider or varicose veins, or if you just want more information on laser treatment or sclerotherapy, contact us at 760-944-9263 or visit our website at www.sdveininstitute.com.

Bushfire Kitchen to open at Beachside Del Mar this summer Beachside Del Mar will welcome Bushfire Kitchen, a Southern California eatery focused on providing fresh, affordable and organic meals, inspired by world travels and an appetite for healthy eats, in summer 2016. “We are excited to expand our presence to Beachside Del Mar,” said Clive Barwin, co-owner of Bushfire Kitchen. “Our food focuses on providing healthy, sustainable meals at a family-friendly price point, and Beachside Del Mar is an obvious choice for our third location.” Barwin, and his cousin-turned-business partner Brandon Barwin, have lived in San Diego for almost a decade, opening the successful Bushfire Grill in Temecula in 2012 and sister restaurant Bushfire Kitchen in La Costa last year. The Barwins were born and raised in South Africa, and have spent time traveling around the world. The inspiration behind the Bushfire restaurants was the desire to serve healthy, comfort food at an affordable price, or as Clive puts it, “food made the same way our grandparents made it 50 years ago.” Every Bushfire Kitchen menu item is made from scratch, including the breads and sauces, and is prepared from locally sourced, organic and non-GMO ingredients. The menu includes Mary’s free-range chicken, braised lamb curry, baby back ribs, burgers and seafood, delicious salads, vegetables and much more. Everything except the bread and the mac and cheese is gluten free. Twelve local beers will be available on tap, and the restaurant will offer eight California wines. The full menu can be viewed at www.bushfirekitchen.com.“ Slated for a late July opening, the Beachside location will be the first Bushfire restaurant to serve breakfast in addition to lunch and dinner, with operating hours planned for 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. The restaurant will offer take-out and dine-in service with tableside ordering for parties of five or more. Located west of Interstate 5 on Del Mar Heights Road near Mango Drive, Beachside Del Mar recently completed a $5 million renovation.

The 20-acre parcel now functions as two independent properties; the boarding and training activity adjacent to San Juan Creek is owned and operated separately from Davidson’s neighborhood of 32 homes. Each is accessed via a private, gated driveway.

Del Mar Homebuilder Davidson Communities unveils The Oaks Farms Three years ago, when Joan Irvine Smith sold her storied equestrian center — The Oaks in San Juan Capistrano — she selected Del Mar homebuilder Bill Davidson and his team at Davidson Communities to honor the legacy of the property while building a new residential neighborhood. The granddaughter of California’s legendary pioneer James Irvine, Joan Irvine Smith purchased The Oaks in 1985. Until selling the property in 2013, she maintained its status as a world-class facility, hosting national events and welcoming generations of local families to its training grounds. On Saturday, March 12, Davidson Communities opened three model homes and shared plans for 32 new residences at The Oaks Farms, situated just steps from the legendary

equestrian facility. The 20-acre parcel now functions as two independent properties; the boarding and training activity adjacent to San Juan Creek is owned and operated separately from Davidson’s neighborhood of 32 homes. Each is accessed via a private, gated driveway. Floor plans are available in both single- and two-story elevations that range from 3,415 to 4,408 square feet on home sites that average approximately 10,600 square feet. Residences offer up to five bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths, with a three-car garage. The Oaks Farms are open by appointment only due to the sensitivity of the nearby equestrian training facility. To schedule an appointment, please email theoaks@davidsoncommunities.com or call 949-391-0920.
