Longtime fairgrounds food and beverage provider to be sold to East Coast company

By Joe Tash Premier Food Services, Inc., a San Diego-based company that has handled food and beverage operations at the Del Mar Fairgrounds for more than 20 years, has agreed to be purchased by an East Coast firm that manages a variety of public venues, from the Louisiana Superdome to the Moscone Center in San Francisco.

Shareholders of Premier agreed to sell their stock to Philadelphiabased SMG Worldwide Entertainment and Convention Center Management, according to an April 3 letter sent to fairgrounds officials by the two companies.

Premier has held the food and beverage contract for the state-owned fairgrounds since 1990. Last year, the company took in gross revenue of just under $20 million at the fairgrounds, and the fairgrounds received $5.67 million. The current contract between Premier and the 22nd District Agricultural Association, which operates the fairgrounds, runs through the end of 2015 with options to extend the agreement.

SMG CEO Wes Westley and Premier CEO George Karetas both addressed the 22nd DAA board at its meeting on Tuesday, April 8. The officials said SMG will simply take over the contract and related labor

agreements under the terms of the purchase. The 22nd DAA must approve the transfer of the contract to SMG, which is slated to come before the board at its May meeting.

Among the concerns of fairgrounds officials, said General Manager Tim Fennell, is keeping intact the management and operational team that has worked well with the 22nd DAA over the years.

“We don’t want to see that change,” Fennell said. “We’ve been assured that’s not going to happen.”

Fennell said he has been talking to other clients of SMG, and the company has received positive reviews.

“My overall gut feeling is I’m very comfortable,” Fennell said.

Premier handles food service during the annual San Diego County Fair and horse racing meet, when it generates the lion’s share of its annual revenue, about $15 million to $16 million, Fennell said. The company also handles food and beverage service at numerous other events held at the fairgrounds each year.

Members of the 22nd DAA board requested a staff report and recommendation on the change of ownership, which the board will consider before voting on the issue in May.

Del Mar bans e-cigarettes

By Kristina Houck Del Mar is the latest city in San Diego County to ban electronic cigarettes.

In a unanimous vote, the Del Mar City Council on April 7 amended the city’s existing smoking ordinance to ban the use of e-cigarettes in all public places where smoking is prohibited.

“We’re just really excited about you extending the language or description of tobacco products to include e-cigarettes and vape pens,” said Judi Strang, executive director of San

Dieguito Alliance for Drug Free Youth. “You’re part of a vanguard of cities.”

E-cigarettes are battery-powered devices that simulate tobacco smoking, but do not contain tobacco. Users inhale vaporized liquid that may or may not contain nicotine and can include a variety of flavors.

Supporters argue ecigarettes are less harmful than tobacco cigarettes, while critics contend they encourage use by young people.

Although the actual health risks are a subject of

debate, the American Lung Association has called for regulation of these devices to protect public health, citing two initial studies that show e-cigarettes emit chemicals such as formaldehyde, benzene and tobacco-specific nitrosamines.

A recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found an increase in e-cigarette-related calls to poison centers, noted Barbara Gordon, who is also with the San Dieguito Alliance for Drug Free Youth, during the meeting.

According to the study, the number of calls to poison centers involving e-cigarette liquids containing nicotine increased from one per month in September 2010 to 215 per month in FebSee BAN, page AA2

By Joe Tash Following the completion of its fall race meet in November, the Del Mar Fairgrounds will replace its synthetic racetrack surface with dirt at a cost of about $5 million.

The 22nd District Agricultural Association board voted unanimously at its meeting on Tuesday, April 8, to request a permit for the work from the California Coastal Commission. Officials said they expect the commission to approve the request at their next meeting, based on discussions with commission staff.

The project entails removing the top 13.5 inches of synthetic material from the track and replacing it with dirt. The current synthetic track was installed in 2007 and the track had a life expectancy of seven years.

Josh Rubinstein, executive vice president of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, told the 22nd DAA board the track needs to go back to a dirt surface to be consistent with other tracks in Southern California, because having different types of surfaces can be a hazard to horses and their riders.

“We want absolutely the safest surface possible and feel returning to dirt will allow us to do that,” Rubinstein said.

This year, the Del Mar track will host two race meets, the first from July 17 to Sept. 3, and the second from Nov. 7 through Nov. 30. Fairgrounds CEO Tim Fennell said the track surface replacement will take place after the conclusion of the fall meet.

Those in the horse racing community — including jockeys and trainers — generally support the change back to dirt, although there are some fans of a synthetic track surface, Rubinstein said. “The overall feedback from the industry is extremely positive that we’re going back to dirt.”

By Kristina Houck A new community group has formed out of the now defunct Solana Homeowners Association Group.

Solana Eastside Community Group, or SECG, brings together homeowner associations and private residences east of Interstate 5. The group held its first general meeting April 3 at Lomas Santa Fe Country Club.

“We want to unify the eastside of the freeway for all the projects of significance that are important to all of us,” said Solana Beach resident Roger Boyd, president of SECG. Established nearly 25 years ago by 11 HOAs located east of I-5, SHAG had been relatively inactive for the past few years. During a special meeting on Oct. 16, the group met to discuss the future of the organization and formed an ad hoc committee to explore how to revitalize the group.

Over a five-month period, the 12-member committee met nine times to choose a new group name, revise the mission statement and organization charter, and nominate officers and directors.

Representatives from SHAG met on March 24 to officially dissolve the old group and transition into SECG. Committee members approved the new mission statement and charter, and officers and directors. Group members also transferred roughly $1,000 in SHAG funds to a new SECG bank account.

The newly formed SECG covers 16 HOAs, five neighborhoods and five commercial

ruary 2014. More than half of the calls to poison centers due to e-cigarettes involved children under age 5, and about 42 percent of the poison calls involved people age 20 and older.

The study found the number of calls per month involving conventional cigarettes did not show a similar increase during the same time period. “This study must serve as a wake up call, not just to parents to keep the ecigarette liquid out of the hands of children, but also to adult users to take extreme precaution when coming into contact with this e-liquid,� said Gordon, who also serves as vice chair of the Tobacco Control Coalition of San Diego County. “We’re not here to prohibit e-cigarettes, but to prohibit their use anywhere you cannot smoke a traditional tobacco product. By regulating where e-cigarettes can be smoked, you are sending a message that you care about the health of all residents.�

Current state law prohibits e-cigarette sales to minors but does not regulate where the devices can be used. Del Mar is the latest city in San Diego County to ban e-cigarettes in public places.

Carlsbad, Encinitas, Oceanside, Poway, Solana Beach and Vista have also passed similar regulations.

El Cajon, La Mesa, Lemon Grove and San Diego are currently developing new regulations or policies. “In some ways, these are much more dangerous to the user than they are to bystanders who don’t get second-hand smoke.

They’re also dangerous to kids,� said Councilman Don Mosier. “I think to the extent that we can discourage use of e-cigarettes — that’s important policy objective of the city. “This is just the beginning. I think as we learn more about e-cigarettes, we may have some more special requirements for regulation.�

entities — a total of 2,074 homes, or more than 5,000 people. Most of the territory is within Solana Beach. “I am so thrilled to see this new group launching, picking up the heritage of SHAG and really carrying the banner forward,� said San Diego County Supervisor Dave Roberts.

Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom also briefly stopped by the meeting, which nearly 40 people attended. He was the featured speaker at the Rancho Santa Fe Democratic Club meeting, which was held in the room next door at the Lomas Santa Fe Country Club. “One thing I know is if you don’t like the way the world looks when you’re standing up, stand on your head and go local. Things are happening at the local level,� Newsom said. “I just want to thank you for your active participatory engagement.�

In the second part of the meeting, City Manager David Ott and City Engineer Mohammad Sammak talked about some projects that affect the eastside of Solana Beach. Ott noted the city didn’t choose the topics, just helped Boyd narrow his list of potential topics.

Much of the talk focused on plans to calm traffic on the eastside of Solana Beach, specifically sections of Santa Helena, Sun Valley Road and San Andres Drive.

Ott also briefly touched on public arts, the train station project and recycled water.

Although the date of the next SECG meeting is not yet set, Boyd noted the board would soon meet to discuss how to move the group forward. “Our input as a community has been rather minimal because we don’t know what’s going on,� he said. “This will help us find out what’s going on, when it’s going on and how to become active and continue to make our city one of increasing values.�

By City News Service A 36-year-old Cardiff man died April 5 after falling from his surfboard off the coast of Del Mar, authorities said.

A fellow surfer pulled the man — whose name was withheld pending notification of kin — from the ocean and brought him to shore near the 100 block of 20th Street, according to the county Medical Examiner’s Office.

An off-duty emergency room doctor and lifeguards attempted to revive the surfer, but he was declared dead at the scene, officials with the medical examiner’s office said.

Del Mar launches new website

By Kristina Houck The city of Del Mar recently unveiled a much more user-friendly website.

Launched the last week of March, the new website has interactive features that enable residents to report concerns, subscribe to calendar updates, receive e-mail or text message notifications, and easily navigate the site on mobile devices.

The council authorized staff to redesign the city’s website in September. CivicPlus, a firm that specializes in government websites, tailored the site to promote community engagement. “The old website had significant navigational hurdles,� said Councilman Don Mosier. “So far, in testing this one, it’s much, much better. I appreciate it, and I hope the public will get more involved now that this is easier to use.�

During a presentation about the new site before the council on April 7, Andrew Potter, the city’s administrative director, said 6,000 people have visited the website since it first launched.

The average user visits the site for about seven minutes, he said. The most visited pages are those that feature employment opportunities, bids and council meetings.

In 1994 she began teaching in the Del Mar Union School District at Carmel Del Mar School. In 2001-2003 she was selected to be a teacher-inresidence at California State San Marcos. Berger returned to Carmel Del Mar School in 2003. In 2011 she moved to Ocean Air School in the Del Mar Union School District and currently teaches 5th grade there.

Berger loves learning; her inspiration to teach comes from the impact left on her by her own teachers throughout her life. In her classroom she believes in creating a learning community so that both students and teacher listen and learn from each other. Berger explains, “I love to connect with children and watch them grow in their thinking; they make connections that surprise me every day.� She helps students set high goals, and she takes pride in being with the students every step of the way as they achieve. “Pam Berger is an amazing teammate and can always be counted on to offer ideas, follow through on responsibilities, and help brainstorm when help is needed to reach a student in another class. She is an inspiration, and through it all, always has class, professionalism and kindness,� the district said in a press release.

Del Mar council opts against City Hall advisory committee, creates community forums

By Kristina Houck In favor of a more direct approach to community involvement in the City Hall project, the Del Mar City Council decided not to establish an advisory committee.

During the April 7 council meeting, staff outlined the benefits of having a committee advise the council on the decision, design and implementation process, but ultimately, council members decided it would be more beneficial to hear directly from their constituents. “To me, the core issue is whether you want this committee to interface with the residents or you want to directly meet with the residents and hear all the ideas,â€? said Councilman Don Mosier. “It means a lot more time commitment and a lot more work for the council ‌ but I’d rather have the unfiltered intake.â€?

Del Mar is moving forward with plans to build a new City Hall to replace the city’s current facilities at 1050 Camino Del Mar. Since the council approved a draft schedule outlining the project’s next steps in March, presentations and discussions have occurred at every council meeting and will continue to take place at every meeting through June 16, when the council could make some decisions on the project.

Throughout this process, the council said it would actively engage the community.

The city held a community workshop on Dec. 2 so community members could weigh in on what amenities a new civic center should offer, where offices should be located and how the project should be financed. The city also distributed a City Hall survey to residents, property owners and business owners in January.

Council members decided they preferred to continue directly communicating with the public rather than forming an advisory committee and assigning council liaisons to the committee. “I would rather have us directly involved, hear community input, get our hands dirty into all the various ideas and communicate both ways with the community,� said Councilman Terry Sinnott. “I think this would be a really efficient and powerful way to go to the community and make a statement,� said Councilwoman Sherryl Parks.

To further encourage discussion, the council also decided to set aside time at future council meetings for community input on the project.

Beginning at the next council meeting on April 21, community members will have the opportunity to express their ideas during an open forum starting at 6:30 p.m., which will take place at every council meeting through June 16. Members of the public have up to 10 minutes to make presentations, with the overall forum not to exceed one half-hour.

In addition, Mayor Lee Haydu suggested all City Hallrelated items appear earlier on the council agenda. The advisory committee item was introduced close to the end of the nearly three-and-a-half-hour-long meeting. Therefore, all City Hall-related items will be introduced after the open forum at future meetings.

PLANETARY HEALING This month we earthlings celebrate and honor commitment to good stewardship of Mother Earth.

There is nothing more significant to healing ourselves and the planet than to live in a healthy relation with Earth. Respect for this living being we habitate as home, determines what level of awareness or wakefulness one is most continuously participating in.

When not in a steady stream of wakefulness an individual drifts between the two mental spheres of thinking that lead one to forget responsibility to keeping connected to the natural world. It has long been known from Aboriginal reality, from where we evolved, that we and earth share living qualities. It makes a difference in our attitude toward our self, our wholeness and our wellbeing how we distinguish the connections.

In essence Earth is sustaining all living things. Earth, Nature and ourselves cannot be separated. Earth is one of the five basic elements in Chinese Medicine, Ayur vedic Medicine, and every form of Holistic Healing theor y. Medicines such as minerals and gems, flower essences and Aura Soma are derived from earth and earth processes.

Nature’s wisdom and compassion provide guiding solutions for restoring our hearts and mind to discern the wakeful path of knowledge toward planetar y healing.

Torrey Pines dancers excel at nationals Torrey Pines High School dancers won trophies in every category they entered recently at the United Spirit Association 2014 Nationals & Championships in Anaheim.

Varsity dancers competed in the championship division, where they captured a third-place trophy for their large hip-hop routine.

In other finishes, medium hip-hop took a secondplace trophy; medium lyrical won a third-place trophy; x small dance finished third; and small dance finished fifth. “I am so proud of our dancers,� said Sarah Kaye, Torrey Pines dance director. “Some of our dancers had very little experience before joining our program. Now they are competing at a very high level. That really says a lot about their talent, dedication and hard work.�

The Torrey Pines contingent included 40 students – seven from junior varsity and 33 from varsity.

During awards ceremonies at the Anaheim Convention Center, an earthquake caused the bleachers to tremble and overhead lights to swing shortly after the announcer identified the Torrey Pines team. “You could say our performance was earth-shaking,�

Kaye said.

Del Mar school district students learning computer science through initiative ‘The Hour of Code’

Torrey Hills fifth grader Tyler celebrates making a coding breakthrough. Photo by Karen Billing formats the kids are familiar with, such as computer games like Angry Birds or Plants vs. Zombies.

“The kids almost think they’re playing the game but they’re actually programming the birds to play the game,” Hopper said.

Programming things like angles coincides with what they’re learning in math and coding involves many of the Common Core State Standards such as problem solving, critical thinking and reasoning.

Hopper loves that the program is self-paced and selfmotivational. Every two to three lessons there’s a tutorial video and students work diligently during their coding time.

Hopper herself went through all 20 hours and admits that the later levels are extremely challenging, requiring different kinds of programming and building on techniques learned throughout the levels.

“Some of it is difficult, this is work,” Hopper said.

The students get stuck on occasion but she loves seeing the light bulbs go off. Hopper designates her more advanced students as “teaching assistants” and they get a real kick out of helping each other out.

The kid collaboration is inspiring to see, 10 year olds talking in the language of “pixels” and “repeat blocks, ”Hopper said.

“This is their shining spot,” said Hopper, of the kids who might not excel in other areas at school. “That’s my job, to help find their little niche and open the doors so they can see the possibilities.”

Last week, her “assistants” hovered over their fellow peers’ monitors and rainbow- colored keyboards to help find solutions as much as Hopper did.

Carmel Valley Middle School wins second place trophy at Southern California Science Olympiad State Tournament For the second time in a row, Carmel Valley Middle School (CVMS) won the second place trophy at the Southern California State Science Olympiad Tournament on April 5.

Carmel Valley students competed against 30 of the top teams from Southern California schools in 23 different science events. CVMS won three first place awards, including Boomilever, Entomology, Simple Machine; Seven second place awards, including Anatomy, Can’t Judge Powder, Crime Buster, Experimental Design, Heredity, Water Quality, Green Generation; and three third place awards, including Helicopters, Road Scholar, and Roller Coaster.

The CVMS Science Olympiad state team students worked really hard for the last five weeks, striving for the elusive first place against other strong schools, such as Muscatel.

In doing so, students put in enormous amounts of energy and extra hours for the competition. They studied up to 10 hours a day every day for the last five weeks. They even studied in the hotel they stayed in the night before the competition.

The coaches, consisting of engineers, scientists, and doctors, also played an important role in these successes. They spent hours of their own time finding resources, organizing field trips, and creating tests to teach the students important science concepts, lab experiments, and how to build engineering contraptions. In addition, volunteers helped enormously with providing food, supplies, and moral support to the students on the competition day. Congratulations to everyone involved!

By Karen Billing Inside her computer lab at Torrey Hills, technology teacher Susie Hopper is amazed daily at what her kids are capable of — that when she asks a class full of first graders what a pixel is, a 6 year old raises their hand to answer that it’s a “pinprick of light on a monitor.”

“There are excellent students doing excellent things in this district,” Hopper said.

Del Mar Union School District’s (DMUSD) Extended Studies Curriculum (ESC) technology teachers, including Hopper, Kevin Cunha from Ashley Falls School and Janet Wolfertz from Carmel Del Mar School, are leading the way for the district. At the Del Mar school board’s March 26 meeting these teachers enthusiastically explained how students are learning to code through a nationwide initiative called The Hour of Code.

Hour of Code challenges students to learn the concepts of computer science with drag and drop programming. It was developed by an advocacy coalition of associations, corporations and scientific societies seeking to elevate the national profile of computer science education. Students in DMUSD are racking up multiple hours of code during class, during lunchtimes and even at home — several have completed all 20 hours of code.

The most one student in the district has done is 1,202 lines of code.

•Prosecutors say bogus postings amount to a crime; defendant says it was prank that got out of control

By Kristina Davis, special to the Carmel Valley News, Del Mar Times, Solana Beach Sun Consumed with bitterness over losing her Carmel Valley dream home to a couple with a higher bid, Kathy Rowe found an outlet for her anger: revenge.

But what she is calling a childish prank, prosecutors say was a perverse scheme to have a woman raped.

The payback against the young husband and wife homebuyers started mildly enough, court records show. Putting a stop on their mail. Signing them up for catalogs for incontinence supplies. Sending religious missionaries to their doorstep.

It’s what Rowe did next that could send her to prison.

She posed as the wife in online adult entertainment ads titled “Carmel Valley Freak Show,” inviting strange men over to the couple’s home for sex and describing scenarios of a rape fantasy to those who responded. The wife’s photo and address were included in the postings.

“I love to be surprised and have a man just show up at my door and force his way in the door and on me, totally taking me while I say no,” Rowe wrote to one man who responded.

One man decided to follow up on the offer, but was thwarted once by a locked gate and a second time when the husband answered the door.

A legal dispute is now brewing over the felony charges Rowe faces in connection with the postings.

The state appeals court ruled on Friday that Rowe, 52, will have to answer to felony charges of solicitation of rape and solicitation of sodomy — two charges that a Superior Court judge had previously dismissed from the case.

At issue is Rowe’s intent. Did she really mean for her to be raped? Does it even matter?

Pranks Escalate Rowe, a county administrative analyst, thought she had found the perfect home for her family in 2011. It was a single story, to accommodate her severely disabled daughter, and had a pool, to provide exercise for her husband following a heart attack.

But due to miscommunication with real estate agents, and a more attractive bid from the other couple, she lost the house.

In a letter to a judge, Rowe described the moment as “devastating.”

“The anger and grief over losing that See REVENGE, page A26

By Kristina Houck After the San Diego Association of Governments failed to respond to Del Mar’s initial letter outlining concerns about the double track rail improvement project, the City Council on April 7 decided to send a second letter to the planning organization.

“I’m disappointed that SANDAG did not respond to the first letter,” said Councilman Terry Sinnott. “I would support sending this letter and I would support having some one-on-one contact with the executive director and various folks at SANDAG to see if we can get some better commitment and, at least, better indication of where there’s some possibilities to mitigate some of these concerns.”

SANDAG is moving forward with plans to build a 1,000-foot special events train platform at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, double track a 1.1-mile stretch of the railway and replace a nearly 100-year-old bridge over the San Dieguito River.

The council directed staff to submit a letter to SANDAG to outline the city’s concerns about the project after hearing from several community members, as well as the San Dieguito Double Track Project Ad Hoc Committee, during the Nov. 4 council

meeting.

Kathleen Garcia, Del Mar’s planning and community development director, noted SANDAG staff acknowledged receipt of the letter but they said it was “too early” for them to respond.

“Our concern is that the project moves forward without them [mitigations for impacts] being incorporated,” she said.

“We are asking for some sort of commitment to including them,” she said.

At the Oct. 30 SANDAG open house and Nov. 4 council meeting, community members raised concerns about noise, vibration and visual impacts from the project. Many concerns centered on the proposed platform.

During the April 7 meeting, Deputy Mayor Al Corti recused himself from the council dais, but spoke before his colleagues as a resident of Del Mar. “In general, when I read the report and I read the resolution, we’re sending a strong message … that we’re in favor of double tracking, we’re in favor of the platform, make some modifications … which I agree, if, in fact, this thing’s got to come,” said Corti, who owns two properties within 500 feet of the project area.

“I think the stronger message that we,

have to wait to share their thoughts on city services through a survey — for now.

After agreeing that a consultant’s proposal wasn’t worth the money, the City Council on April 7 decided against approving a contract for a citywide citizen satisfaction survey.

If approved, the contract would have awarded Probolsky Research up to $15,000 to survey 125 people by phone to measure the city’s performance and

have also included a shortened mail and Internet survey component.

“We’re spending a modest sum to get a very imprecise survey,” said Councilman Don Mosier.

“I think, scientifically, this is a waste of money. It’s just not a big enough survey to have any precision.

“It’s not a very good baseline survey. If you look back at the old survey, it wasn’t very informative and it asked more people more questions. We’re go-

have trouble spending this amount of money for this little information.”

The city last conducted a survey in 2006.

Fairbanks, Maslin, Maullin and Associates conducted 245 phone interviews with randomly selected Del Mar voters. The survey found that 96 percent of respondents believed the quality of life in Del Mar to be excellent or good. Only 4 percent said the quality of life was just fair or poor.

SPECIALIZING IN EXQUISITE RANCH & COASTAL PROPERTIES

By Kristina Houck Although he currently lives in New York, worldrenowned violinist David Chan grew up in Del Mar. The Juilliard-trained musician is set to return to North San Diego County for a concert April 19 at the Encinitas Library.

“Del Mar was always home,” said Chan, whose parents still live in the coastal community. “It’s always good to come back.”

Chan is concertmaster of Metropolitan Opera’s orchestra, which he first joined in 1998. He also serves as a faculty member at Juilliard, his alma mater.

Born in San Diego, Chan began playing the violin at the age of 3. His parents encouraged him to learn the instrument after they watched a demonstration for a Suzuki violin program at his preschool.

“They thought it

Violinist David Chan Courtesy photo would be good for me to do it,” Chan said. “Nobody had any idea at that point what it would lead to.”

At 14, Chan won San Diego Symphony’s Young Artists Concerto Competition and subsequently appeared with the orchestra in two concert series. He became the featured soloist on the orchestra’s international tour later

that same year. At 17, Chan gained international recognition when he received the top prize at the Tchaikovsky International Competition in Moscow.

After graduating from La Jolla Country Day School, Chan went on to earn his bachelor’s degree from Harvard University and his master’s from Juilliard. He made his Carnegie Hall debut during the 200203 concert season.

“We recognize that we’re very lucky to have the life we have, having reached the level that we have in music,” said Chan, who is married to Catherine Ro, also a violinist in the MET orchestra. They have three children. “It’s a very blessed life with a lot of opportunities to experience a lot of things that most people don’t get to.”

Chan has performed around the world as a soloist and with a variety of orchestras, including Aspen Chamber Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Moscow State Symphony and Taiwan National Symphony, among others. Still, he always looks forward to returning to San Diego — this time to perform in the second concert of “Virtuoso,” a new concert series founded by Rancho Santa Fe resident and violin-

ist Michael Tseitlin.

“To truly communicate as a performer you have to give of yourself,” Chan said.

“That’s a special quality that I understand my friends in other fields who are good at what they do and are dedicated to their job — they don’t necessary always get an opportunity to do that. Every time I touch the bow to the string, it’s an opportunity to do that.”

This will be the first time Chan has performed in the region since he participated in La Jolla Music Society’s SummerFest last August. In addition to Chan, the concert will feature cellist Sergey Antonov and pianist Bernadene Blaha.

“It’s a fantastically varied and interesting program,” Chan said. “The audience will get to hear a variety of different combinations and different styles of music. I’m hoping the audience will find it stimulating, varied and exciting.”

The concert will begin at 7 p.m. April 19 at the Encinitas Library, located at 540 Cornish Drive in Encinitas.

Tickets cost $25 for general admission and $21 for students and seniors.

Elephant ride operator thanks fair board

By Joe Tash The owner of the company that has provided elephant rides at the San Diego County Fair for 30 years thanked fairgrounds officials for their support on Tuesday, April 8, in the wake of the company’s decision not to provide the rides at this year’s fair.

“We love you guys,” said Kari Johnson, co-owner of Have Trunk Will Travel, along with her husband, Gary. “We look forward to

having our elephants participate in any way in the future.”

The rides have been controversial for several years, as animal rights activists contended the company treated its elephants improperly, and that the rides posed a potential danger to children.

The board of the 22nd District Agricultural Association voted in 2011 to keep the rides through the 2014 edition of the fair, and then

planned to revisit the issue.

At Tuesday’s board meeting, director Lisa Barkett said the elephant rides brought joy to many children and adults over the years.

“I’m personally saddened you won’t be here this year at the fair,” Barkett told Johnson.

The Johnsons announced their decision March 27, citing business and personal reasons.

By Rob LeDonne The current season of “Dancing with the Stars,� one of television’s most popular shows, features a who’s who of recognizable faces. There’s “Price is Right� host Drew Carey, NHL superstar Sean Avery, and legendary actor Billy Dee Williams — just to name a few. In addition, there’s also one of San Diego’s very own: James Maslow, the actor/singer who rose to fame as part of Nickelodean’s Big Time Rush boy band.

Maslow, who was raised in La Jolla and attended Torrey Pines Elementary School, Muirlands Middle School, and San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts, first stretched his acting muscle in the San Diego area and was active in local arts, including at the La Jolla Playhouse. “I remember when he first auditioned for our conservatory program when he was about 17,� said Steve McCormick, the Education & Outreach Director for the Playhouse. “The conservatory program is for the more advanced students, and I remember him being incredibly generous and comfortable. Some people come in and have an attitude, but not James. He gave a very relaxed audition.�

The team at the Playhouse, including McCormick, saw something special in Maslow and he was admitted into its summer program. “You have to have that certain spark to achieve greatness or fame, you can’t teach it,� notes McCormick. “In most cases, as an educator you can only perceive it and tease it out. James always felt like he knew his path, and he was always eager to learn. He asked a lot of questions and was forward thinking. We just enjoyed being around him.�

A year later, Maslow sent his audition tape to Nickelodeon and was later cast as the character of James Diamond, who’s referred in press materials as “the handsome one� of the group. “He always knew what he wanted to do, and went down every avenue to pursue it,� said McCormick of Mal-

James Maslow (right) when he was at the La Jolla Playhouse Summer Conservatory. Photo courtesy of J.T. MacMillan

sow, who landed his first agent at age 14. “He’s always had that drive to be a leader, and had confidence in himself as well — in the best way. When I heard he made it to Nickelodeon, it just made sense.�

Maslow’s partner on “Dancing with the Stars� is Peta Murgatroyd, and in the first few episodes he’s won high praise from the judges and viewers alike. He’s also not shy to remember his roots on the show: his official biography on the ABC website mentions the Playhouse (as well as his time studying at the San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts), and in a recent episode he talked about his time growing up in San Diego.

Aside from Maslow’s current notoriety on “Dancing With The Stars,� the La Jolla Playhouse is no strangers to seeing locally trained talent explode on a national level.

Sutton Foster, who appeared in the Playhouse’s production of “Thoroughly Modern Millie� after its original lead actress dropped out, later went on to win a Tony Award for the role and is now the darling of Broadway. Nikki M. James, who played “Dorothy� in La Jolla’s revival of “The Wiz,� later starred in Broadway’s “Book of Morman� and won her own Tony for the role in 2009. Christopher Douglas Reed, a native of Clairemont and a Playhouse conservatory alum who appeared in its production of “Tobacco Road,� currently stars on the hit FX series “Sons of Anarchy� and has also appeared on Disney’s “Wizards of Waverly Place� and HBO’s “Eastbound and Down� — just to name a few.

Overall, McCormick (who’s been working at the Playhouse for about a decade) is no stranger to seeing La Jolla Playhouse alum on television and in the movies. “It happens all the time,� he explains. “Even if it’s a small role.

However, I’m not surprised James is as big as he is now.� “Dancing with the Stars� airs Monday nights on ABC (www.abc.go.com/shows/dancing-with-the-stars).

California Department of Fish and Wildlife seeks applicants for Natural Resources Volunteer Program •Training academy to start in May

By Joe Tash Andria Guzman looked out the window into her back yard, and saw a 40-pound cat on her lawn.

The Oceanside woman walked outside and tried to shoo the animal away, shouting “Git!� several times. “He looked at me like, ‘Who do you think you are?’� Guzman said as she described the incident to a pair of state wildlife volunteers.

Eventually, the animal — most likely a bobcat, according to the volunteers — jumped over the short fence at the back of Guzman’s yard and perched on a large stump before wandering away.

The house call on a recent afternoon was all in a day’s work for Bob Gaskin and James Drost, members of the Natural Resources Volunteer Program, which comes under the auspices of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

State officials describe the volunteers as the eyes and ears of state wildlife biologists and game wardens, assisting with a variety of tasks and providing valuable work hours in an era of tight government budgets. The department wants to expand the program in San Diego, and is seeking applicants for an upcoming weeklong training academy that will start in May. Along with assisting Fish and Wildlife employees, the volunteers act as “conservation coaches,� whose mission is to educate the public on how humans can safely co-exist with their animal neighbors, said Lt. Kent Smirl, who founded the volunteer program in San Diego in 2002. Since then, it has expanded to nine chapters across the state.

About 20 volunteers are active in San Diego County, which will increase after the upcoming training academy.

Volunteers are expected to put in at least 24 hours per month, and also pay for their own uniforms, at a cost of $250 to $300.

Gaskin, 60, an Olivenhain resident, works part-time in the biotechnology field, and has been with a wildlife volunteer for the past six months. “It’s something I always wanted to do, giving back to the community,� he said.

Drost, 76, is retired from the U.S. Navy, and lives in Clairemont. A fisherman and hunter, Drost said he enjoys meeting people and educating the public on wildlife and conservation issues.

Volunteers perform such tasks as fielding phone calls, delivering documents to court, patrolling nature preserves and assisting with conservation projects. Re-

Wildlife volunteers James Drost, left, and Bob Gaskin, examine the area where a bobat was seen in the yard of Oceanside resident Andria Guzman. cently at the Batiquitos Lagoon in Carlsbad, volunteers cleared away brush and weeds to aid nesting by California least terns and Western snowy plovers, two endangered species. “It’s important to have dedicated people interested in helping the department,� said Warren Wong, a wildlife biologist with Fish and Wildlife. “It’s really helped us a lot.�

The volunteers wear white dress shirts or polo shirts, depending on their tasks that day, green baseball caps, dark green pants, volunteer badges and photo ID cards. While they can offer advice and information, they are not authorized to write citations or confront members of the public in any way. They are not even allowed to ask people to show their fishing licenses.

But their presence in vehicles clearly marked with their volunteer status probably does deter some illegal activity, the volunteers said.

Some 90 percent of the calls received by the state wildlife office in San Diego are about coyotes, said Drost, but the office also receives calls about bobcats and mountain lions. Volunteers sift through the calls each day, and decide which ones warrant a home visit. Based on the information they receive from residents, they also determine whether the call should be referred to game wardens.

In the case of Guzman, the Oceanside resident, the volunteers were shown photos of the four-legged visitor that Guzman had captured on their cell phone.

The pair advised Guzman to keep her two small children inside for the time being, and suggested ways of trying to scare off the intruder, such as making loud noises or using a large children’s water gun to douse the animal with a mixture of water and household ammonia.

If the cat did show up when she was outside with her children, they said, she should not bend over to pick up the toddlers or turn her back and run with the kids, because the cat could then perceive the family as prey. (“You’re the mouse and that’s the cat,� Drost said.) Instead, she should put herself between the animal and the children, stand up-

The volunteer program has provided a big boost statewide for the Department of Fish and Wildlife, said Smirl. According to the program’s 2012-13 annual report, in the program’s southern district, which includes San Diego, Orange County and Los Angeles, volunteers logged 17,000 hours with a value of $421,000.

Statewide, the totals were 43,000 hours worth just over $1 million. “We get a lot of committed people. We’re very proud of them,� Smirl said.

Anyone interested in applying for the volunteer program should log onto www.dfg.ca.gov/volunteer/nrvp, said Smirl. But before filling out the online application, he urged them to call him at 714448-4215 to learn more about the program and its requirements. They can also email him at kent. smirl@willdlife.ca.gov.

By Kristina Houck From running for elected office to volunteering on various boards, Carmel Valley’s Ray Ellis spends much of his time looking for ways to give back to the local community and greater region.

A San Diegan since 1987, Ellis ran for the San Diego City Council in 2012. Although incumbent Sherri Lightner was re-elected to the District 1 seat, Ellis has found other ways to serve San Diego.

Ellis, who has lived in Carmel Valley for nearly a decade, has served on the Del Mar Mesa Community Planning Board for more than a year. Some of the challenges for the board have been moving forward with plans for a neighborhood park and managing growth in the community.

“It’s just a great community, and I wanted to become more involved,” he said.

“Our board is focused on open space and trails, and striking a balance between the environmental side, but also access. That’s a big part of the community, not only the Del Mar Mesa area, but the whole Carmel Valley area and San Diego in general.”

In addition to his work on the community planning board, Ellis serves as a board member on the Balboa Park Conservancy, which was formed in 2010 to promote and preserve Balboa Park, as well as raise funds for the 1,200acre urban cultural park. The group is now responsible for rebooting the park’s centennial celebration.

“Balboa Park has some wonderful opportunities and some unique challenges,” Ellis said.

San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer recently unveiled plans for a scaled-down celebration to replace the spectacle that had been envisioned. The conservancy will now

Ray Ellis Courtesy photo help the city host four events, including the 2014 and 2015 December Nights, which will serve as the centennial’s opening and closing ceremonies.

For the first time, the conservancy managed December Nights in 2013. The conservancy will manage the annual event again for the next two years, as well as two new events.

“It went very well, so it’s natural that they came back to us,” Ellis said. “It’s the city’s event. The centennial is the city’s event and we’re just trying to assist any way we can.”

In addition to his work in Carmel Valley and Balboa Park, Ellis serves as board chair of San Diego Social Venture Partners, an organization that invests time and money in

nonprofit organizations to increase their impact in the community. San Diego Social Venture Partners has contributed more than $2 million to local nonprofits since it was founded in 2001.

Ellis serves as treasurer of The Parker Foundation, which creates partnerships with a variety of arts, community, educational and social organizations in San Diego County. He also serves on the finance committee of San Diego Grantmakers, a membership association that aims to connect and educate philanthropists.

Ellis is also on the board of the San Diego Workforce Partnership and is an active member of the San Diego Workforce Funders’ Collaborative.

“I’ve had just a wonderful time and I’ve met great people,” Ellis said. “I encourage folks to get involved both civically and from a community service standpoint.”

A Virginia native, Ellis earned his bachelor’s in history from Christopher Newport University and his MBA from Pepperdine University.

He is the owner of an investment firm, Ellis & Associates, LLC. He also manages the Ellis Family Foundation, a private foundation that funds other nonprofit organizations.

Although his run wasn’t successful in 2012, Ellis admitted he is open to the possibility of running for office again in the future.

“It will be an open seat in 2016, so it will be a different environment,” he said. “I learned a lot during that process, met some great people. I think I have a very strong grasp of citywide issues and neighborhood issues.

“It’s all about if I think I can have a positive impact on San Diego. I love our city and region.”

By Rob LeDonne Disney’s Wild World of Sports is an immense athletic complex located within the famed Walt Disney World Resort and, along with the usual cast of animated characters, today it’s home to the Notre Dame softball team. The team members are at Disney’s practice facilities preparing for a pair of games against the University of Central Florida and Florida International University, which happens to be smack in the middle of their season.

“Our season isn’t officially done until the end of April, but we don’t exactly know when we’ll finish playing,” said pitcher Rachel Nasland. “We started out the season very strong this year compared to previous years, so we’re hoping we can continue to keep our record up and go very far.”

One of the main reasons the Notre Dame team could go all the way this year may be because Nasland herself.

A 2013 graduate of Torrey Pines High School, she was a standout on the school’s softball team when they won back-to-back CIF championships (a first for the softball team), and Nasland personally received the honor of being named the 2013 All-San Diego Softball Player of the Year — among a variety of other accolades.

“That was a nice way to close that chapter of my life,” explains Nasland while walking back to her team bus after practice in the southern Florida humidity. “I still miss playing in high school; it was a fun time in my life.”

Fun is probably an understatement: Torrey Pines softball was so successful, it was widely considered to be the best in the country.

Nasland’s passion and expertise for softball stretches back to when she was only 6 years old. “My mom kind of played softball when she was younger, so when I was really little I signed up like any kid.” Within a year, she decided to become a pitcher — a decision that rested on

Rachel Nasland Photo/Steven Robitaille the responsibility of the position. “I loved being on the mound and being a big part of every play.”

As the years went by, Nasland discovered she had a knack for pitching and continued to pursue the sport well into middle school, and then high school.

“It’s a huge transition between playing middle and high school softball,” Nasland says. “You start playing opponents who are older than you, and I definitely had to fight for my position on the mound. It was definitely a bigger jump.”

At around that time, Nasland also started to get more serious concerning various outlying aspects of her game, including her diet, workout routines, and generally putting “much more time into pitching and practicing. I was definitely preparing for playing at the college level early on.”

While on the winning Torrey Pines team coached by Jon Moore, Nasland chose to attend Notre Dame in the February of her sophomore year — almost three years before throwing her first pitch at the school’s campus in South Bend, Indiana. The school has a rich athletic history, and while

its football team may be the school’s claim to fame, Notre Dame’s softball team is chock full of the best players in the U.S. and is considered one of the best of its kind.

“They were the first coaches I spoke to and the first school I ever visited,” Nasland explained.

“I loved that Notre Dame had both great academic and athletic programs. When I first got offer to join the team, I called my sister Alexa (another former TPHS softball player) and she started crying she was so excited. My whole family was so excited; there were lot of tears.”

Nasland’s not sure how long the current season will go, but from all accounts the team is in the right hands. Said Nasland, summing up her passion for the game: “My first time pitching at the mound just at practice felt like everything I ever wanted and worked for was finally paying off.”

Patriot Profile: ‘We put so much trust in one person’ This column presents “Patriot Profiles” to provide readers insight into the lives of our country’s heroes.

By Jeanne McKinney Leading up to Sept. 11, 2001, Curney Russell, a teenager growing up in Manchester, N.H., had never heard of the terms “mujahideen,” “insurgents” or “Taliban.”

“I didn’t think so many people out there hated us,” he said. “I was young and not fully aware of what was going on in the world.

“I wanted Infantry; there was no talking me out of it,” Sergeant Russell remembers telling a Marine Corps recruiter a year after 911. He relays, “I wasn’t ready for college coming out of high school, but knew I was ready to do something bigger than myself.”

‘Bigger’ meant not only coming to know mujahideen, insurgents, and Taliban on foreign battlegrounds, but, at 19 years old, becoming a key page turner in the Iraq War. Sent to Boot Camp on Paris Island in 2002, Russell recalls, “I grew up playing sports, but it seemed like Boot Camp was the eye-opener — it was the unknown.” While learning what Marines do in the field at the School of Infantry (SOI) East in Camp Lejeune, N.C., second thoughts crept in, “What am I doing out here sleeping in the dirt?”

From SOI East he went to 3rd Light Armored Reconnaissance (LAR) in Twentynine Palms. “There are about 10 of us checking in and he [acting 1st Sgt. Gunny Peterson] said to us, ‘You guys better learn your jobs real quickly because we’re going to war.’” A few weeks after checking in on Jan. 5, 2003, “We were getting on ships to deploy to the Middle East. We offloaded in Kuwait.”

Russell’s platoon was sent to screen the Iraq/Kuwait border. Safwan Hill was a main breeching point from Kuwait into Iraq and was softened up by artillery so troops could go through.

“We were looking for uniform fighters — Suddam Hussein’s army. They [command leaders] said, ‘These guys are stripping their uniforms.’” His platoon was engaged in firefights where they “saw uniforms on the side of the road.”

“We wanted to get north of Baghdad to show a force up there,” adds Russell. “Baghdad Bob, the propaganda guy for the Iraqi army, said, ‘They’re never going to make it here.’”

Russell’s platoon was formed into Task Force Tripoli and quickly pushed through Baghdad to Tikrit, Suddam’s hometown. “My company was tasked with going forward and taking a bridge for follow-on forces to come through.”

It was then when rumors started, “We’re going home. The Army’s coming to take over for us. We did our

Camp Pendleton, Calif. Sergeant Curney Russell.

Photo by Jeanne McKinney job. We got all the way up here.” But the rumors didn’t pan out.

Russell’s battalion commander announced, “There are seven Americans somewhere in this town [Samara]. We’ve got human Intel on it…Third Platoon is going to be the main element on this to go in and get these guys out of here safe.”

March 23, 2014, marks 11 years since the Army’s 507th Maintenance Battalion, carrying Private First Class Jessica Lynch, was attacked in “Ambush Alley,” Nasiriyah, Iraq. Russell explains that in addition to Lynch and another soldier taken, there were five from the 507th that were taken as POWs to a different location. “The five became seven when two Apache Longbow helicopter pilots were shot down.”

“All we had was a little strip map that was drawn out by an Iraqi with the number ‘13’ written in Arabic,” said Russell as if it happened yesterday. They [Iraqis] said, “They’re in this house. This is how you get here.” They loaded up and were briefed by his platoon commander.

“You guys are weapons tight, because there’s seven Americans behind one of these walls that one of your rounds could possibly hit.”

“We were on foot moving through the city of Samara, trying to find where this house is. Meanwhile, this is the first time American forces have been this far north, so everyone has an interest in what we’re doing. Crowds are starting to gather, people are starting to gather on rooftops,” recounts Russell. “I was thinking — is this a set up?”

They paused to reorganize and Russell’s buddy pointed to a guy peeking through a fence. “It was one of the Apache Longbow pilots. He yelled, ‘Hey, we’re Americans.’ The house found us.”

They moved in, kicked the door down and started clearing the apartment, meeting no resistance from Iraqi handlers, who’d moved their families out. Senses were heightened as Russell approached the first door on the right, finding the POWS, “They were all curled up in balls on the floor…The look of fear on their face [changed] to the excitement of ‘we’re going home’ — ‘we’re safe.’” Specialist Shoshana Johnson had wounds to each one of her ankles and needed medical attention. Russell was put in strict charge of escorting Johnson and the rest of the Army POWs to Kuwait.

Russell went to Iraq again during Operation Enduring Freedom (OIF) II, 2004-2005. “It was a big push for this new word…we were calling it ‘SASO’, which stands for support and stability operations. Our training leading up to that was, ‘We’re not there to beat our chest at anyone.

We’re there to support them so one day they can sustain on their own. We want to make friends.’”

“I remember telling the guys that weren’t there on the first deployment how crazy it was to go from being ‘loved’ so much everywhere we went…we were freeing them [Iraqi people] from being oppressed,” says Russell.

“But now, it’s some of them flipping us off.”

Regarding opponents, Russell explains, “In Iraq, during the second deployment, we weren’t calling them insurgents then — we were calling them mujahideen — they’re holy fighters.” Deployment to Afghanistan in 2010 added “Taliban” to his vocabulary, a word many Marines have taken to hospitals and the grave. Russell claims, “You appreciate life more once you’ve seen things or engaged with the enemy.”

What stands out in the Marine Corps for Russell? “We put so much trust in one person. This Marine can be 19 years old and leading a squad against a squad of Taliban.”

Russell has seen training evolve from the beginning of his career where maybe one guy in his platoon had seen combat 10 years previous. “Now, if you say ‘Raise your hand if you’ve been to Afghanistan’ — you’ll have half the company throw their hands in the air. That’s new leadership.”

“Goodbye” is a familiar term for a Marine. “It will never get easy having to leave my family here.” For Sgt. Curney Russell, family is his wife and daughter. Having to go to Iraq or Afghanistan, “There’s no guarantee you’re going to come back.” Yet Russell believes the words, “Yes, I’ll serve” will “Keep this country the way it is.”

Seniors Helping Seniors provides care, jobs to seniors in North County

By Kristina Houck When Patricia Berman went to see her doctor for her routine checkup in March, he told her she doesn’t look or act 90 years old.

“I don’t plan to act 90,” said Berman from her chair in her Oceanside house, a place she has called home for more than 20 years. “I want to keep doing things. I want to keep living.”

When Berman fell in August, she needed a compassionate caregiver who understood her desire to remain independent. That’s when she contacted Seniors Helping Seniors of San Diego North County, a Carlsbad-based non-medical, in-home care agency.

Founded in 1998 in Pennsylvania, Seniors Helping Seniors matches seniors who want to provide help with seniors who need help. The company now has about 230 locations throughout the U.S. “When you get to be a certain age, you can understand maybe what that other senior is going through,” said 63-year-old Patty McCormac, one of Berman’s three caretakers. “I’m not saying a younger per-

son couldn’t do it, but I think an older person has more empathy.”

From a couple of hours to 24-hour care, Seniors Helping Seniors offers companionship, housekeeping, cooking, shopping, transportation services and more. Seniors Helping Seniors of San Diego North County serves Carmel Valley, Del Mar, Encinitas, Solana Beach, Rancho Santa Fe, San Marcos, Oceanside and Vista.

After Berman fell, McCormac stayed with her full-time for five days. Now, she and two other caretakers from Seniors Helping Seniors take turns spending time with Berman Monday through Friday, driving her to her appointments, helping her clean her home, and more.

“If I don’t have anything for them to do, they leave,” said Berman. “I have free time and I’m alone, which I like. I don’t want to be hovered over. I don’t need it.”

A widow for 31 years, Berman said she enjoys spending time alone.

After she raised her children, Berman worked at a needlepoint store. Today she spends much of her time working on needlepoint projects and teaching a needle-

“I prefer my home. I prefer privacy,” she said. “My home is my sanctuary.”

While Seniors Helping Seniors provides essential services to senior clients, it also helps other senior citizens supplement their retirement incomes. Matching those two groups together is the mission of Seniors Helping Seniors.

“I was lucky to get Mrs. Berman,” said McCormac,

By Gloria Limas An Carmel Valley Middle School’s recent annual career fair showcased more than two dozen professions this year. Students were able to get a glimpse into areas of study, including life sciences, law, video programming, finance, medicine, real estate, law enforcement and fashion design. CVMS counselor and career fair organizer Karen Infantino says it’s an event students look forward to each year.

“It’s a day every year we set aside for the students to start thinking about what they want to do when they are out of school. It ties directly into the new educational Common Core structure with the deep thinking and connecting. It’s actually a good match between the two. At this age, it’s hard for some students to think past tomorrow.

This is an opportunity to see into the future.”

The recent educational shift to the common core standards has made early career exploration a priority for many students. The fair was attended by a large percentage of the school’s student population of about 1,500. Returning career fair presenters shared how one of the most popular questions this year shifted from how much money is made in their given profession to how much student loan debt there is after graduation.

Carmel Valley Middle School is part of the San Dieguito Union High School District. For more information please visit the school’s website http://cv.sduhsd.net/

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS

TakeLessons raises an additional $7 million in venture funding •Increasing total amount raised to $20 million, positioning TakeLessons as a core member of San Diego’s exploding tech scene.

San Diego-based TakeLessons (www.takelessons.com), the nation’s leading online marketplace connecting students of all ages with high quality, well-vetted teachers, recently announced an additional $7 million in funding, bringing its total raised to $20 million. The round, led by new investor Chicago-based Lightbank, included participation from the startup’s existing investors, Crosslink Capital, SoftTech VC, and Triangle Peak Partners, and new investor Moore Venture Partners.

Last year, TakeLessons was named San Diego’s secondfastest growing internet company, as well as the region’s seventh-fastest growing company overall. With its recent Google partnership, finalized in November 2013, and the recent acquisition of its Chicago-based competitor, Betterfly, TakeLessons’ regional and national significance has grown significantly over the past few months. The additional funds raised will help accelerate TakeLessons’ growth, both physically in San Diego, with the opening of the company’s new offices downtown, and online, with the addition of the foreign language category.

Previously, TakeLessons catered to those seeking academic tutoring, music lessons, and instruction in the

performing and visual arts.

These new funds have enabled TakeLessons’ expansion into new cities as well as language instruction. The funds have also empowered TakeLessons’ further development of its proprietary web-based scheduling, billing, and communication tools, which are already used by thousands of teachers to streamline the management and marketing of

their businesses.

TakeLessons’ CEO, Steven Cox, is passionate about helping teachers become more entrepreneurial by harnessing the power of mobile and online technology to help them make a living doing what they love to do. Cox considers TakeLessons a representation of the best that online marketplaces have to offer.

While similar in concept to other marketplaces, such as eBay and Amazon, TakeLessons is committed to supporting life-enriching skills and hobbies that inspire creativity and promote mental and physical health and well-being.

“TakeLessons’ proprietary web-based platform

enables teachers of all disciplines to share their knowledge and passion with their students, wherever, however, and whenever they choose,” said Cox. “This latest round of funding fuels our growth by enabling us to attract the best teachers and students to our site. It also has the added benefit of generating jobs and economic activity in our region.

As a company we hope that our growth will help elevate national awareness, not only of TakeLessons, but also of San Diego’s talented tech industry, which we are true beneficiaries of.”

About TakeLessons TakeLessons is the trusted online marketplace for finding qualified and vetted instructors. At TakeLessons, students can follow their dreams and fuel personal growth by connecting with the perfect instructor in areas ranging from music, dance and acting to foreign languages, math and photography. Instructors rely on TakeLessons to simplify marketing and manage their business with integrated scheduling, billing, payment, and communication tools that work seamlessly across desktop and mobile devices.

•Panel/Q&A with experts to be held after screenings In honor of Parkinson’s Awareness month, there will be two chances to see the critically-acclaimed documentary “Ride with Larry” at La Paloma Theatre in Encinitas.

Made by local filmmakers, the film has screened to sold-out audiences and has been generating buzz based on audience response to the impact of exercise, and a particular medical marijuana scene captured here in San Diego. This inspirational film is a story of love and hope, following retired police Capt. Larry Smith as he cycles across South Dakota to prove that “if you love life, you’ll fight for it.”

“Ride With Larry” follows Larry Smith, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease over 20 years ago.

Larry wants to do one last big thing before it’s too late: ride his bike 300 miles across his state of South Dakota to inspire other people living with Parkinson’s and to prove that sometimes the best cure is living life to the fullest.

Following the first

‘Ride With Larry’ When: Sunday, April 13 Time: The film will screen at 2 p.m., followed by a filmmaker Q&A, and at 4:30 p.m., followed by a panel discussion.

Where: La Paloma Theatre, 471 S. Coast Highway, Encinitas Cost: $10 at the door or online at www.ridewithlarry. eventbrite.com Contact: Anthea Beletsis at 760.

519.2996 or antheab@pacbell.net screening, the filmmakers will hold a special Q&A. After the second screening, Voice of San Diego CEO Scott Lewis will moderate a panel featuring Scripps Hospital’s stem cell research team, the Americans for Safe Access medical marijuana lobby, and the Parkinson’s Association.

Ticket holders from either screening are welcome to attend the panel discussion. Seating is first-come, first-serve.

GoPro, maker of the action-sports camera used in the movie, has generously donated three of its newest Hero3 cameras to be raffled at the event. Tickets are $5 and the winners need not be present to win.

Attendees are invited to enjoy food and drinks at D-Street Bar & Grill, next-door to the theater, no ticket needed. (D St. will donate a percentage of each bill to “Ride With Larry”). There will be live music from Todd Hannigan and his band (featured in the film) in addition to the chance to speak with the filmmakers.

Proceeds from the event and the raffle will go to benefit: Parkinson’s Association, Summit4StemCell and the San Diego Chapter of Americans for Safe Access.

Letters to the Editor/Opinion San Dieguito Union High School District Superintendent Rick Schmitt’s Monthly Update Superintendent Schmitt plans to update the greater San Dieguito Union High School District community through our local media with a monthly update. Topics covered will include curriculum, facilities, budget, safety, and other specific and special interest topics.

Today’s update focuses on the new Next Generation Science Standards and celebrating our 2014 Employees of the Year.

Next Generation Science Standards The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) have been developed based on the National Research Council’s Framework for K-12 Science Education and in close alignment with the Common Core State Standards. NGSS includes three dimensions: (1) Science and Engineering Practices, (2) Crosscutting Concepts, and (3) Disciplinary Core Ideas. As compared to current California Content Standards for Science, NGSS includes much more integration with mathematics and engineering, much more connection between science disciplines, and a greater emphasis on depth over breadth within science disciplines.

NGSS is similar to Common Core State Standards in that (a) it is a set of standards, not a prescribed curriculum; (b) it emphasizes depth and application over breadth and coverage; (c) standards build coherently from kindergarten to 12th grade; (d) literacy and communication integrate directly into course content; (e) they are designed to prepare students for college, career, and citizenship.

California officially adopted NGSS as the state science standards in September of 2013. The California Department of Education has planned a three-stage phasein. The San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) will take a gradual and multi-year approach toward implementation: •2014-15: Awareness & Staff Training •2015-16: Transition & Staff Training •2016-17: Implementation While NGSS recommends integrated science classes (instead of disciplinary classes) for grades K through 8, California has established two pathways for middle school science classes. One pathway would approach middle school science in an integrated manner with standards relating to Life Science and Physical Science being taught together in an integrated fashion over a two-year sequence (7th & 8th grade). The second pathway would continue to teach middle school science stan-

dards in two separate standalone courses (7th grade Life Science and 8th grade Physical Science). During the 2014-15 school year, SDUHSD Science teachers and curricular leaders will study both pathways and will choose which to pursue moving forward. The new Rick Schmitt standards do not call for or recommend that high school science course pathways change.

As with our transition to the Common Core State Standards, SDUHSD will take a slow and measured approach to implementing NGSS. We will emphasize ongoing professional development for teachers and we will develop and adopt high-quality textbooks (digital and/or traditional) and other instructional materials aligned with NGSS. In the coming year we will conduct a number of public meetings at our schools and in conjunction with our feeder elementary districts to inform our students and families about the changes inherent to NGSS. For more information, visit www. nextgenscience.org; CDE page: www.cde. ca.gov/pd/ca/sc/ngssintrod.asp Teacher of the Year Scott Huntley, History and Culinary Arts teacher at San Dieguito High School Academy (SDHSA) is our 2013-14 District Teacher of the Year. Scott teaches both AP World History and Culinary Arts. He began his career in our district in fall of 2007.

First and foremost, Scott is an exceptional classroom teacher in both the AP World History and Culinary Arts classrooms. His students have one of the highest AP World History test pass rates (over 85 percent) which are among the most difficult of AP tests due to the breadth of the content assessed.

In 2008, Scott created the Culinary Arts program at SDHSA with one course.

By 2011 over 800 of the 1500 students at SDHSA requested Culinary Arts as one of their electives and Scott was teaching both introductory and advanced courses. In just a few short years, Scott created what is likely the single most popular elective program in the entire district. The Culinary Arts program draws both university-bound AP students as well as students looking to gain ROP certification to work in the culinary industry.

The success Scott has achieved in both See UPDATE, page A23

Keeping jobs and tax dollars local

By Supervisor Dave Roberts Creating jobs and keeping tax dollars local.

Those were the driving forces behind an initiative I brought to the Board of Supervisors late last month.

In legislation titled “Enhancing Procurement Opportunities for Local Business,” Supervisor Greg Cox and I directed county executives to research the consequences of increasing the 1 percent preference we grant to local vendors and service providers. We also proposed establishing a preference for disabled military veterans. The analysis is due back to us within four months.

We believe buying local is a good idea.

Keeping our purchasing and contracting local means tax receipts stay local. That’s good for our economy and good for jobcreation.

A second prong of our proposal envisions a pro-

Dave Roberts gram whereby government agencies join forces to buy in bulk – at bulk rates.

If, for example, the county needed a dozen new patrol cars for its Sheriff’s Department and a police department in San Diego, Carlsbad or Oceanside needed the same, why not buy together to bring down the price? And what if the agencies realized big savings for the bulk purchase?

And shouldn’t we buy these vehicles locally?

The net result is good for taxpayers, good for business and good for jobs.

We want purchasing See TAX, page A23

More strip mall madness I agree that strip malls are dead and we should return to a main street mixed-use model (March 13: “Strip Mall vs. Main Street”). Not everyone agrees, though.

Donahue Schriber (DS), the big strip mall developer that owns Del Mar Highlands Town Center (DMHTC), wants even more strip mall madness.

A couple of weeks ago, I saw the Donahue Schriber survey crew on the backside (eastern side) of this neighborhood traffic menace. I stopped to ask “What’s up?”

The surveyor said he wasn’t sure exactly, but the owner intends to put up a big concrete parking structure.

Great! That’s exactly what we need across the street from little kids who walk to and from school along Townsgate Drive. Parents of every Solana Pacific school kid should be alarmed. As a nearby neighbor, I know I am.

Because they don’t need public approval anymore, I guess Donahue Schriber thinks they can add more strip mall density and traffic without doing anything to mitigate the impacts on nearby surface streets.

I’ve raised the question before: why are the owners of DMHTC keeping their plans quiet? And where is the Carmel Valley Planning Group (CVPG) on this? Their job is to keep an eye on land use and traffic.

The next CVPG meeting is on April 24 at 7 p.m. at the Carmel Valley Library. I encourage Carmel Valley residents to attend. I heard that Donahue Schriber’s representative may be there, too. Let’s show up and demand information about their hush-hush plans for unfettered growth.

It may be our only opportunity to say “No!” to outof-control strip mall madness.

Janette Littler, Carmel Valley resident

continued from page A1 During class, fifth grader Tyler hit a wall and threw his arms up in frustration. After some tinkering with a fellow student, he threw his arms up again in celebratory fist pumps to the ceiling.

“You go crazy,” Tyler said about what it’s like when you get a code to work. “It’s so frustrating at first because you feel you’re never, ever going to get it and then it’s like ‘woa!’ Generally, I get all riled up.”

UPDATE continued from page A22 the academic and elective realms doesn’t happen by accident - it is the result of his dedication to excellence in all he does and is the result of a Herculean work ethic. Scott is the embodiment of what we hope for in all of our teachers and we are very fortunate to have him as part of our SDUHSD family.

is our 2013-14 Classified Employee of the Year. Norma began her career in the District as a student aide after school while attending San Dieguito High School.

Norma worked in the Personnel Office and the Superintendent’s Office for several hours after school.

Norma was hired by the District in January, 1994, as a part-time Office Assistant in the Adult Education ROP Office which eventually became a fulltime position. In July, 2009, she was hired as a secretary in the counseling office where she still works today.

Co-worker Vetha feet.

Although he supported most of the letter, Councilman Don Mosier voted against the follow-up letter. He argued that the platform couldn’t be shortened, according to rules set by the Federal Railroad Administration, National Environmental Policy Act and California Public Utilities Commission.

“They have three layers of bureaucracy to work through, all which have to be passed to get funding for this project from the feds,” said Mosier, who represents Del Mar on the North County Transit District Board and the SANDAG Regional Planning Commission.

“For Del Mar to insist that this platform be shorter as their primary opening concern is nonproductive. It’s saying Del Mar says, ‘SANDAG and NCTD should ignore federal law, ignore state law and ad-

At Carmel Del Mar, students are programming their own interactive stories, games and animations with Scratch, a rich programming toolkit developed by MIT. “The ultimate goal is for them to become fluent with digital media,” said teacher Janet Wolfertz in the video. “At Carmel Del Mar students are programming at 10 years old and understanding that computer science is one of the most amazing art forms in the world. It takes students to a place where they’re empowered to imagine, create and soar.”

Pierce describes Norma as a “work horse” and the one who is always willing to help with any task!

Norma has a great sense of humor and never misses a co-worker’s birthday. Norma is the ultimate professional in dealing with parents, students, and staff.

Norma is committed to doing her best and always goes above and beyond the call of duty. We are fortunate indeed to have Norma on our San Dieguito Team!

You can follow Superintendent Schmitt on Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/ sduhsd, and Twitter, https:// twitter.com/SDUHSD_Supt. here to Del Mar’s wishes.’

I think that’s why you didn’t get a response from the first letter. You’re asking SANDAG and NCTD to do something they cannot possibly do.”

In addition to shortening the platform, the letter outlines additional ways SANDAG mitigate visual, noise and vibration impacts of the platform, double track and bridge replacement portions of the project.

“We’re happy to get cars off the road — but this is a big price,” Michalsky said. “There should be more pushback from our community to NCTD, to Amtrak, and especially SANDAG, to get them to realize that it’s not about not having it in our backyard, it’s just about how far into our backyard.”

The San Diego North Chamber of Commerce understands the value of supporting local business and earlier this year launched its “Think Local

First” campaign, which I strongly support.

I also encourage business owners to explore whether the County of San Diego or other government agency could become a customer.

In early April, I hosted a “Meet the Buyers” forum in Escondido, where business owners connected directly with government purchasing agents.

For some entrepreneurs, government agencies can become their best customers. I advise any

business owner to browse the dozens of open solicitations on the county’s Web site. We are in the market for any number of goods and services.

Working together, and working creatively, we can support business and grow jobs in this county while solidifying our tax base. That’s good for everyone.

zen satisfaction survey, Councilman Terry Sinnott encouraged his colleagues to continue to pursue other alternatives.

“We have received input from various people on various topics that we’ve got really good service, really bad service or something in between,” Sinnott said. “Any service organization, which I think this is a service organization, needs to periodically check in with its customers. … I think we owe it to the community.”

Staff will return to the council at a later date with alternatives.

OBITUARIES

James W. Carr “The Mayor of Main Street” 1924 – 2013 On September 19, 2013, Jim Carr of Park City, Utah, age 88, passed away in Solana Beach, CA, where he spent his final years.

He was the dear brother of the late Thomas Carr and Charles Carr, and loving uncle of Thomas Carr “TC”, Charlie, Robert, Jimmy and Barbara Jo (Bill)

Weisenbach.

Jim was born on December 26, 1924, in Philadelphia, PA. He proudly served in the U.S. Army during WWII, fighting in the “Battle of the Bulge”. After his military service, Jim worked for RCA as a top recruiter in Florida and Alaska.

Arriving in Park City in 1964, Jim was one of the Modern Day Pioneers who truly believed in and shaped Park City into the World Class Resort Community which we all know and love today. He, along with his trusted dog, “Bogart”, was the proud owner of the Prospector Hotel & Prospector Sirloin Restaurant/ Bar (Hula Bowl). He also owned and operated “The Last Resort” on lower Main St. which housed many locals in their early years, as well as commercial storefronts on Main Street.

Jim’s true loves were

skiing, which he did into his early 80’s, tennis and the Main Street Deli which he frequented almost every day. He truly touched the lives of many individuals who still call Park City home; as well as his dear friends in Southern California (Tennis club and Polo grounds), who were with him to the end.

Jim was interred at the Miramar National Cemetery, San Diego, CA, after a military ceremony.

A Celebration of Jim’s Life will be held in Park City, Utah (soon)! All family members, friends and acquaintances of Jim are invited. Please RSVP to: Tom Carr-“TC”, tcdenverco@msn.com. home 303-282-9670/ cell 303-475-4154.

The council formed the San Dieguito Double Track Project Ad Hoc Committee last year to gain a complete understanding of the project, identify issues and problems, and identify and prioritize mitigation measures.

Shortening the platform was one of the biggest sticking points of the committee.

RSF Attack BU14 advances to State Cup Semi Finals

Del Mar Powerhouse 11U Champions The Del Mar Powerhouse 11U team was crowned champs last weekend in the AAU Spring Open Tournament in Temecula. The bats were hot and proved to be the key to the boys’ success throughout the tournament.

Back row: Coach Matt Chess, Coach Vic Sanchez; Middle row, L-R: Luke Stevenson, Carson Williams, Cade Ramseyer, Jack Silver, Aiden Springer; Bottom row, L-R: Eric Lu, Corrado Martini, Teagan Pope, Jason Behrend.

After two grueling weekends of play in the Governor’s Division of the State Cup Tournament, the RSF Attack B99 (BU14) Green team is making the most of its first State Cup trip. The boys outscored their opponents 21 - 1 through the six games they have played in State Cup, advancing to the Semi Final game to be held in San Bernardino April 12.

house (and especially in the way we did) drove me to behave in a very childish way and to do what I thought were childish pranks to let off steam and ease the pain,” Rowe said. “I never intended for them to be hurtful.”

The couple, as well as their lawyer, did not respond to a request for an interview.

According to detailed court filings in the case, Rowe first tried to buy the home from the couple, sending them a letter offering them $100,000 above the asking price. It was declined. Then weird things started to happen.

The husband testified during a preliminary hearing that about a month after he and his wife moved in, people came by the door interested in a “for sale” posting on the real estate website Zillow.

By Christmas, mail had stopped coming to the house. A stop had been issued in his wife’s name.

A strange assortment of books and magazines also started to appear in their mailbox.

In February 2012, the husband learned that Valentine’s Day cards had been sent in his name to many of the wives in the neighborhood.

After getting a strange call about his property taxes, he did a Google search for his wife’s name. What he found was shocking. There was his wife’s photo with ads for “Carmel Valley Adult Entertainment.”

“Adult entertainment of all types when my husband is not home. Not for the faint of heart,” one posting read.

Further searches found a posting for a high school New Year’s Eve party at their house, and a Fourth of July Mexican fireworks giveaway.

He called police.

Explicit emails The postings left the couple frightened, and mystified.

“They were definitely terrified,” said Deputy District Attorney Brendan McHugh.

“They went out and got all kinds of security.”

The prosecutor even requested police do extra patrols by their home.

Law enforcement traced the computer address of the online postings to Rowe.

A search of her Carmel Valley apartment turned up a number of explicit emails to two men who had responded to the ads.

“Just stop by any Monday-Friday 9 a.m.-3 p.m. I like the element of surprise,” Rowe had written one of the men.

When one of the men actually went to the house, but found a locked gate, Rowe wrote him back and encouraged him to try again, court records show. The man did later that day, but was surprised when the husband answered the door.

“I had to make an excuse for why I was there,” the man wrote Rowe back later.

Rowe stopped communicating with the men after that. She said she became disturbed when one of the men sent her a nude photo.

By July, the Rowes had found a new home that fit their needs, and she turned her focus elsewhere.

“While I am ashamed of my actions, I did not do things which I thought were harmful or scary,” Rowe said in a letter to

continued from page A3 the judge. She said if the couple had contacted her, she would have stopped.

“But because I never heard from anyone, I never knew if these activities were noticed or the impact they were having on the family.”

She said the scheme was an outlet of sorts for her, as she was coping with being the sole caretaker for her teenage daughter, who has a genetic disorder that gives her the intellect of a 4- to 5-year-old.

She described the constant care for the girl — sleeping in a chair at her bedside each night and driving her to 100 doctor appointments each year — while still holding down one to two jobs to pay for the medical costs. Both she and her husband suffer health problems of their own.

The devotion to her daughter earned Rowe recognition in 2006 as one of the county’s top 50 Moms of the Year in a contest sponsored by Time Warner.

Friends and colleagues have also weighed in, writing supportive letters to the judge.

Intent questioned Rowe was arrested in October 2012 and charged with the solicitation charges, as well as four counts of identity theft and one count of misdemeanor harassment.

After a preliminary hearing, San Diego Superior Court Judge Runston Maino dismissed the two solicitation charges, ruling that he didn’t have a strong suspicion that Rowe intended the men to actually rape the homebuyer. He called the men who responded to the ads “wimpish guys who didn’t appear to intend to go through with a rape, a scenario they thought would be consensual.”

Maino also reduced the four counts of identity theft to misdemeanors.

Superior Court Judge Joan Weber reviewed the decision at the request of the District Attorney’s Office and upheld it.

Prosecutors, in their appeal, said the language Rowe used in her emails couldn’t have been more clear in the intent. They said Rowe’s instruction to the men “is not only the product of a deeply disturbed mind, it is also the description of forcible rape.”

A divided three-judge panel of the state appeals court agreed, ruling prosecutors had met the burden of proof to allow the solicitation charges to be argued at trial.

Solicitation becomes a crime when a verbal request is made with criminal intent, the judges said. “The harm is in the asking, and it is punishable irrespective of the reaction of the person solicited,” the court said, quoting case law.

Justice Alex McDonald penned a dissenting opinion, saying the evidence in the case concerns consensual sex. Even the language suggesting force is done in a manner to make the consensual encounter “more exciting,” he said.

Rowe’s attorney, Charles Sevilla, said Tuesday that he agreed with the dissenting opinion, that Rowe had “no felonious intent for these men to commit sex crimes.”

Sevilla said he plans to petition for a rehearing by the appeals court, or appeal to the state Supreme Court.

If Rowe loses, then the felony charges will be added to her misdemeanor case.

Q&A: 22nd District Agricultural Association President discusses priorities for the Del Mar Fairgrounds

Solana Beach painter shares love of art with kids at SDSU Children’s Center

Late last year, attorney Frederick Schenk – a partner with San Diego-based plaintiffs’ law firm CaseyGerry – was elected by the Board of Directors, 22nd District Agricultural Association (San Diego County Fair Board), to serve as its president.

Schenk, a longtime Carmel Valley resident, was previously vice president of the Board of Directors, and now serves as president for two years. He has a long-time association with the San Diego County Fair Board, and had been appointed previously to serve on the board by former Governor Gray Davis, serving from 2002 to 2006, and was also vice president of the board in 2006.

With San Diego County Fair season in Del Mar around the corner, he discusses priorities for the fairgrounds – and why this property is such a vital resource for the San Diego community.

What are currently the top priority projects for the fairgrounds?

The most immediate priorities: Preparing for the Del Mar National Horse Show (April 17 - May 4) and the annual San Diego County Fair (June 7 – July 6).

Then begins the start of the summer horse racing season (July 17– Sept. 3).

Completely new this year is a fall horse racing season (Nov. 7 – Nov. 30).

Also important are capital improvement proj-

By Kristina Houck Two at a time, kids at San Diego State University’s Children’s Center used oil paints to create a 38-by46-inch painting. Solana Beach artist Judy Moffson set up her 9-foot tall easel at the center on March 21 as part of the annual “A is for Art” program.

“I did not lay one brushstroke on the canvas. I tried to give them some ideas by telling them to close their eyes and think about their favorite things,” said Moffson, who has lived in Solana Beach since 1976. “They lined up and were very excited to participate. It was just a really wonderful, fun experience for all of us.”

Founded by Associated Students in 1971, the Children’s Center provides care for up 200 children of SDSU students, faculty, staff and alumni.

The center’s “A is for Art” program brings together local artists and children ages 6 months to 5 years to produce art, enhance self-expression and build self-esteem.

“It’s important to encourage children to be creative,” Moffson said.

“They did beautifully, and I really bonded with the kids.”

Torres said of the cast (with very impressive resumes) is great. Auditions were held in Los Angles, New York and Chicago.

“It was important to cast close to each character and the story line,” Torres said. “We’re about storytelling and creatively conveying it to the audience, making sure the words of the play are distinct and clear. I hope those who see ‘Water by the Spoonful’ get a clear understanding of what recovery and addiction is about, and that it’s always good to expand one’s horizons culturally.”• – “Water by the Spoonful” runs through May 11 at Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, 1363 Old Globe Way, Balboa Park.

By Diana Saenger The California premiere of “Water by the Spoonful,” Quiara Alegría Hudes’ winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, opens at the Old Globe’s Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre April 12. Directing the play is Edward Torres, who recently directed the world premiere of Quiara Alegría Hudes’ “The Happiest Song Plays Last.”

“Water by the Spoonful,” is the second play in Hudes’ Elliot Cycle, three stand-alone plays written over an eight-year period. Each uses different music types – Bach, Coltrane, and Puerto Rican folk music – to trace the coming of age of a bright, but haunted, young Puerto Rican man. The final play, “The Happiest Song Plays Last,” opened Off Broadway in February 2014.

“I absolutely love Hudes’ writing.” Torres said. “I think ‘Water by the Spoonful,’ is a wonderful play about recovery, redemption and the human connection.”

Hudes’ work includes a vast catalog of noted work.

She wrote the book for the Broadway musical “In the Heights,” which received the 2008 Tony Award for Best Musical, a Tony nomination for Best Book of a Musical, was a 2009 Pulitzer Prize finalist and garnered Hudes other awards. Hudes has a B.A. in Music from Yale University and an M.F.A. in playwriting from Brown University.

“Water by the Spoonful” is an open page to current events. Soldier Elliot Ortiz is home from a tour in Iraq.

Now he must reconnect with this family and begin a new life. Looking for support anywhere he can find it, Ortiz discovers an Internet chat room. There he finds four others who also need support to face their own demons. It’s not long before Elliot’s real world intersects with his virtual world in unforeseen ways.

As a director, actor and producer, Torres is cer-

Young Del Mar group gathers at Hotel Indigo

T

he Del Mar Foundation’s Young Del Mar, a new iteration of its Children’s Committee, held its first gathering for Del Mar parents at Hotel Indigo on April 1. More than 70 parents, friends and neighbors turned out to enjoy a glass of wine and appetizers.

A short survey conducted at the event revealed a growing need for programs and activities focused on pre-teens, while continuing to offer activities for young children. The survey also showed that Del Mar parents wish for more events just for grownups that enable them to “get out and connect with neighbors and friends.”

Young Del Mar provides memory-making children’s events and activities for the Del Mar community, including last year’s Fancy Nancy Parade, 4th of July Parade, Toddler’s playgroups, Annual Easter Egg Hunt, and Spooktacular Beach Bonfire. Upcoming events include Earth Day Beach Clean-up on April 13, the Annual Easter Egg Hunt on April 19, a Young Del Mar Social and Meeting on April 29, as well as regularly scheduled playgroups. For more information, visit www.delmarfoundation.org or call 858-635-1363.

The Del Mar Foundation sponsors programs, makes grants, and manages nearly $2 million in endowment funds to benefit the community and the San Dieguito Lagoon. The Foundation’s community endowment provides long-term funding stability for community needs.

Beth Am Preschool achieves 100 percent participation in annual fundraiser Beth Am Preschool hosted its annual fundraiser at Cohn Restaurant Group’s Vintana Wine + Dine in Escondido on March 9. Parents and teachers enjoyed dinner, drinks and live music on the beautiful Moonlight Veranda. Thanks to the families who attended, the generous underwriters and

corporate sponsors, among them Alor, DeLatori and Cohn Restaurant Group, this year the school raised $45,000. The school celebrated an unprecedented 100 percent participation from its preschool community and as a result students will enjoy a schoolwide celebration to mark this accomplishment.

Above All Advertising provided a Step & Repeat banner for the occasion and guests enjoyed a little “red carpet” moment upon their arrival.

LUX Art Institute unveils new education pavilion •Community Open House will be held April 13

By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Several years in the making, the new Education Pavilion at Lux Art Institute will celebrate its grand opening with a Community Open House on April 13.

The 7,000-square-foot building, designed by architect and Lux board member Anne Sneed, is meant to be a true community center. Boasting a sleek, steel-framed glass entrance and a set of finely crafted, reclaimed-wood “barn doors” in its interior, the pavilion features five large and colorful classroom/studio spaces, a wood shop and a digital lounge. Out back is a one-acre garden area with an amphitheater for concerts and special events. The new venue will allow Lux to expand its activities for children and begin offering others for teens and adults.

Since its opening on an Encinitas hillside off El Camino Real, in 2007, Lux has dedicated itself to making art more accessible and meaningful, with an annual artistsin-residence program that allows the public to personally engage with international artists and watch their creative process.

“The reason our children’s programs have been so successful is that the kids are inspired by world-class artists,” said Reesey Shaw, who is Lux’s founding director. “For our grand opening, we’re showing works by some of our early artists-in-residence, but afterwards, the gallery space will be turned over to the kids.”

Lux’s new educational director is Lisa Davis, who comes from the Smart Museum of Art at the University of Chicago. “I went from Smart to Lux,” she said, smiling. “I’ve become enlightened!”

Davis is eager to see the new space filled with people, and ready to receive any suggestions for possible activities. “Yoga in the garden, film screenings, book clubs ... we’re open to new ideas!”

Lux’s current artist-in-residence, Jarmo Mäkilä, will be part of the Open House celebration. His mysterious and compelling paintings of his Finnish boyhood will be on view in Lux’s upper gallery, along with the “Clay Boys” he’s been creating each day Lux is open to the public, i.e. three boys a week.

The Lux Community Day Open House is noon to 4 p.m. Sunday, April 13, at Lux Art Institute, 1550 South El Camino Real, Encinitas. There will be hands-on art activities, live music and refreshments. Free. (760) 436-6611. luxinstitute.org

Random Acts of Caring “A parent prays for their newborn baby to be healthy and grow up strong. Fortunately, most are and seen as angels. But for the few that are not, those with Autism, Asperger’s, Down syndrome, PTSD, or physical impairments life at first can be seen as dismal and difficult. However, the light is growing bright inside and at the end of the tunnel.”

Solana Beach Starbucks and the Healing America’s Heroes organization have joined forces to work with special

needs youth and adults in North County. Both support research for finding causes and cures and are developing free programs and creative workshops to assist the needs of the groups. Starbucks recently hosted a “patio party”to bring locals and special heroes together. Complimentary sweets and beverages topped with the signature whippedcream were presented for all.

Now, North Coast Fellowship Church of Eden Gardens has opened its spacious community hall facility for

weekly arts and educations programs for the youth and ASN (Adults with Special Needs). Samples of the members’ creativity will be presented in Starbucks, which will also host future parties for the group. Check for party dates as you are invited to join in the festivities and make new friends. — Joel Harris For more information, visit www.healingamericasheroes.org.

Economic Recovery Drives up Divorce Rate The cost of Paul McCartney and Heather Mills‘ wedding was reportedly a hefty $3 million. Their divorce: almost $50 million.

In other words, divorce can be very expensive. This is why, according to an article on Bloomberg.com, the divorce rate plunged during the 18-month recession beginning in 2008; many unhappy couples simply couldn’t afford to get divorced. In fact, the article claims 150,000 divorces

were postponed or avoided between 2009 and 2011.

One example was a Florida couple, Amy Derose and her husband Lawrence, who were forced to postpone their divorce for the sake of their engineering firm. Now, with the economic recovery, they are moving forward with their divorce, she is looking for a new job and “couldn’t be happier.”

The higher divorce rates are also having a positive effect on the economy. Divorces increase housing demand by creating the need for two households where there was formerly one. This also fuels the need for additional appliances and furnishings, further stimulating the economy.

Yet, although the higher divorce rate

seems to have benefits, there is one casualty: women. According to Nicholas Wolfinger, sociology professor at the University of Utah, “Divorce takes a devastating economic toll on women.”

Following a divorce, a woman’s per capita household income can drop as much as fifteen percent. Ariane Hegewisch, study director for the Institute for Women’s Policy Research in Washington points out, “Women may carry a greater burden of the costs of child care, but also to be more restrained in the paid work they can earn as primary caregiver for their family.”

The Bloomberg article highlights the experience of newly divorced mother of two Stephanie Jackson. She has a parttime job as a bookkeeper while studying to be a paralegal. Jackson said, “I have gone from an upper-middle-class mom

to being a welfare mom. She is currently on food stamps and free lunches. Despite her economic hardships, however, she says that ending her unhappy marriage was “worth every moment of hardship.”

She continues to say, ““I had to take full ownership of my life, my choices, my future, and my happiness.”

Many of you who have been trapped in unhappy marriages because of economic reasons may, like Stephanie Jackson, be ready to put your future happiness above your economic security. However, an experienced divorce lawyer may be able to help you better secure your financial future. If you’re looking for divorce representation, please find me at http://www.bickfordlaw.com/, on Facebook or by phone at 858-793-8884.

The Kitchen Shrink

BY CATHARINE KAUFMAN “A new high-fiber brand of matzo fortified with oat bran, flax and chia seeds hit the market. It’ s called, “Let My People Go.” Kitchen Shrink: Mountains of matzo boxes are lining supermarket aisles and shelves.

Could you please give me some background on this food, and even though my family doesn’t follow Passover, I would appreciate some creative matzo recipes as my husband enjoys this

crispy carb.

Karen J. La Jolla Passover or Pesach that is observed by Jews worldwide in early springtime — usually coinciding with Easter — is a celebration of freedom of what became the Hebrew tribes from slavery in Egypt. When Moses and the people he led were fleeing from Pharaoh with no time to properly pack food for survival, they carried the unleavened bread dough on their backs that baked in the hot desert sun into hardtacks. These were later refined into flat matzo we know today.

That flatbread became part of the eight-day Passover diet as a commemoration of the Exodus. The rest of the foods must be free of leavening agents, flour, bread, grains and legumes— also called “chametz”. Here’s a primer on this low-fat unleavened bread to enjoy during the Passover holiday and throughout the year.

A Tale of two Matzos Sephardic Jews, whose ancestors were from the Middle East and Spain have different dietary restrictions and preferences on Passover than Ashkenazi (Eastern European) Jews. The former are allowed a soft, chewy matzo that resembles pita bread in texture and thickness.

The more common Ashkenazi matzo is thin, crisp and cracker-like, shaped in square boards with vertical perforations. The other Ashkenazi matzo is hand-made and round, about a foot in diameter, called “Shmurah” translating to “guarded,” since it is prepared under strict Rabbinical supervision to ensure that there is no fermentation.

Matzo Makeovers Moses would’ve been amazed at the varieties of matzos offered today. Matzo manufacturers now cater to Celiacs or those with gluten sensitivities. A British based company called Barkat makes gluten-free matzos with maize or cornstarch, soy, bran and tapioca starch.

Other matzo makers use oat flour and potato starch for their gluten-free products.

Handmade artisanal matzos are becoming popular, baked in wood-burning ovens with locally sourced and sustainable farm to Seder table grains and eggs, along with honey, olive oil and spices.

The ancient grain spelt has found its way into matzos along with organic flours, both white and whole wheat from Manischewitz and Yehuda. There’s egg and yolk-free egg matzos for the cholesterol-conscious, rye, Mediterranean-style with sun-dried tomatoes, and onion–poppy.

The sweet tooths can nosh on bittersweet and milk chocolate-covered matzos, along with matzo granola in assorted flavors from maple nut to gluten-free cranberry orange.

A Matzo Side-bar In 1838 Isaac Singer invented the matzo rolling machine.

The Israeli matzo market exceeds $100 million a year, while the U.S. market is around $86 million annu-

ally.

B21

Matzo has to bake within 18 minutes of the flour and water blending together.

Multi-tasking Matzos Matzo is a versatile blank canvas ideal for both sweet and savory creations.

For breakfast, matzo brei, reminiscent of French toast is fried with a mixture of beaten eggs, almond milk, cinnamon and vanilla extract, and drizzled with maple syrup or topped with fresh fruit preserves. For lunches or dinners whip up matzo grilled cheese or burgers blending ground matzo with egg, chopped mushrooms, onions and sweet peppers.

Try matzo Italiano with a simple vegetarian matzo pizza or lasagna, sheets drizzled with a lemon zest and basil-infused olive oil or chicken Parmesan with a golden breaded matzo coating. Do matzo Mexicana with zippy quesadillas, Greek with matzo spanakopita, or concoct your favorite allAmerican matzo sandwiches such as, almond butter and jelly, egg or chicken salad, or roasted veggie. For your just desserts, construct a warm

Matzo and gooey matzo s’mores, brandy-soaked matzo in a fruity English trifle, or this blissful praline bark just as delicious beyond the Seder night.

Line a baking sheet with foil and then top with parchment paper. Place the matzo sheets, single file on the pan, covering the entire surface area, breaking the matzo if necessary to fill in spaces.

In a saucepan, heat the butter and brown sugar, stirring until the butter is melted, and the mixture starts to boil. Cook for another 2 minutes and remove from heat. Add extract, cinnamon, salt and pecans.

Pour over the matzos, spreading the mixture evenly. Bake for about 12 minutes, careful it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t burn.

Remove from oven and let cool. Break into jagged pieces and store in an airtight container.

Through the Race Track Authority (RTA) -- any monies left over after paying bond debt are applied to capital projects. RTA revenue consists of all live race meet net revenue, all net Satellite Wagering Revenue and $2 million in food and beverage revenue.

We could refinance our existing debt, and currently have $26 million remaining on tax-exempt bonds, or dip into DAA cash reserves, currently about $8 million. It should be noted that DAA cash reserves are replenished $2-3 million annually.

What are the most difficult issues facing the fair board right now?

Some difficult issues on the horizon: obtaining the funding needed for capital projects (including new exhibit halls), keeping horse racing healthy and

relevant going forward, and attracting and keeping talented people within an antiquated state personnel system.

What are your goals as a fair board president?

My goals are to be a strong steward of one of the most important and uniquely located pieces of property owned by the State of California. The fairgrounds have been serving the residents of San Diego County for over 75 years. I want to be certain that I leave it to those who follow me just as well protected and in such splendid condition as when I took responsibility for its wellbeing.

Is there anything you wish people knew about the fairgrounds and/or the fair board that they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to know or understand?

The Fairgrounds and the San Diego County Fair belongs to the people of San Diego County. It is a

wonderful facility that has a positive yearly economic impact on the region of over $475 million and creates thousands of jobs and business opportunities. The board members are all volunteers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; many of whom donate hundreds of hours annually to the success of this San Diego Jewel!

This summer, the theme for the 2014 fair is â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Fab Fair.â&#x20AC;? We will be remembering the British Invasion and paying particular tribute to the Beatles and the impact that they and others had on our culture ever since they came to the United States in 1964. We expect those who attend will enjoy entertainment, fair food, modern agriculture and educational programs which will fascinate and inspire the more than 1.5 million people who will once again start their summer season at the San Diego County Fair.
