OHCC Golf Course Slated for Use of Recycled Water

General Manager Becky Groene-wold, confirmed that Ocean Hills will be slated for the use of recycled wa-ter. This water is used exclusively on our golf course and is scheduled to be available by the end of 2017 much to the relief of our golfers and other resi-dents.

Discussions have been on-going with the City of Ocean side for well over a year. The City stat-ed that OHCC was still on the top of the list for those to receive reclaimed water. Originally, we were to purchase reclaimed water from the City of Carls-EDITORIAL, cont’d. on Page 3

EDITORIAL

Common Sense(The following quotes are some

of the excerpts from an “obituary” printed in The London Times.)

“Today, we mourn the pass-ing of a beloved old friend, Com-mon Sense, who had been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.”

“Common Sense lived by sim-ple, sound financial policies such as: don’t spend more than you can earn and reliable strategies: adults, not children, are in charge.

Common Sense began to dete-riorate rapidly when well-inten-tioned, but overbearing regula-tions were set in place.”

Now, let’s apply Common Sense to the world we live in to-day:

• A legal judgment favored a woman who burned herself when she spilled hot coffee between her knees while driving a car. CS would tell you not to do such a thing, but she was awarded mil-lions of dollars.

• A newspaper reported that a burglar sued a homeowner for having shot him while he, the burglar, was in the process of loot-ing the house. The burglar won the case. CS should have told him he shouldn’t be burglarizing in

bad, but the City of Oceanside decided to produce their own reclaimed water. They plan to route the water so that it can enter through the area by the front gate, then reroute it to our 35 acre golf course. The Master Board will be work-ing on the infrastructure necessary to pipe the reclaimed water to OHCC. Becky also said that the reclaimed wa-ter can never be used in the front yards in the villages because reclaimed wa-ter cannot be piped to cross over pota-ble water due to the possibility of con-tamination.

the first place.• Common Sense gave up the will to live when parents

attacked teachers for reprimanding unruly students instead of disciplining their own unruly children themselves.

• Recent news items revealed a number of trucks, SUVs and automobiles were struck by on coming trains while on a train crossing. CS would indicate that a train crossing is a bad place for your car to be positioned, even for a moment.

• CS declined when schools required parent’s consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student, but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

• There was a report of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate. CS dictates that the boy wouldn’t even know what sexual harassment was much less sex. This is where Common Sense should trump rules and regulations.

• The city fathers of both Carlsbad and Oceanside have authorized the building of hundreds of new houses and apartments. CS could have told them there isn’t enough wa-ter and power to support the existing population much less more population.

“Common Sense was preceded in death,— by his parents, Truth and Trust,— by his wife, Discretion,— by his daughter, Responsibility,— and by his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 5 stepbrothers:— I Know My Rights— I Want It Now— Someone Else Is To Blame— I’m A Victim— Pay Me for Doing Nothing.”

“Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone.” n

Should drought conditions worsen, any further restric-tions governing potable water will not apply to recycled wa-ter. Even if residents can be subject to further restrictions as to use of potable water, recycled water can continue to irri-gate our golf course. n

The Village Voice New Supervisor forGolf Course Maintenance

The O’Connell Land-scape Company has named Glenn Kramer as the Landscape Supervi-sor for the OHCC Golf Course. He will be re-sponsible for the main-tenance of the greens and the surrounding ar-eas surrounding the golf course.

His past experience has been as a golf course supervisor at the Carls-bad Crossings,and at Del Mar Golf, with experi-ence at the Calloway Golf Company.

Glenn lives in Oceanside with his wife of 20 years. They have two sons, ages 16 and 18. He is very excited to be here and finds the people here very helpful and friendly. n

Progress of theClubhouse Remodel

Sidewalk superintendants viewing the prog-ress of Palm Court are wondering why the long deep trenches are being dug around the court-yard. While they resemble the trenches of WWI in France, it is the first step in constructing the 18 inch high walls to separate the landscape from the cemented area.

Colors of cement were decided by Master Board.

King palm trees installed by Clubhouse. Below, forms ready for installation.

Samples of cement were examined by the members of the Master Board to determine the best color and texture for the concrete around the pool and the Palm Court area. The tex-ture will help prevent slips when the pool deck is wet, with-out being rough on bare feet. One authority on cement how-ever noted two characteristics of cement: one, it cracks, and two, it fades. In time, all shades of color fades into a neutral tone. To minimize the cracking, expansion joints are placed between the modules to accommodate the expansion of the cement.

Four King Palm trees were installed in front of the Club-house and later in April, added plants were delivered for the contractor to complete the finishing touches of the landscape design.

The new sidewalks is 5 ½ inches thick, twice thickness of what is usually required. It will have the capacity of sustain-ing the weight of catering trucks or an army tank necessary to quell any possible rowdy disturbances in Abravanel hall during card games.

Completion for the entire project is slated for mid-May. n


Memories of the Depression:Survival in thePost-WWII YearsBy Bob Kerber

Part 1Growing up in what was then a rural area of California

was sometimes adventurous. It seems that every 10-year-old kid had a Daisy BB Gun, which cost about $1.50. We went bird hunting and also had BB-Gun fights with kids from out of the neighborhood. Fortunately, there were no serious inju-ries beyond the frequent hits and stings we received.

We lived at the base of the Palos Verdes hills and spent many hours hiking. Water ran year-round and the hills had turtles, snakes, rabbits, raccoons, foxes, skunks, possums and other wild life. The Civilian Conservation Corps did flood control work in the hills which kept a lot of young men off the streets and employed.

Delivery trucks that served the area broke up occasional boredom. There was the iceman who delivered blocks of ice. Very few homes had refrigerators. There was also the pro-duce truck, the fish truck, the bread truck and the Good Hu-mor van where you could buy an ice cream bar for a nick-el. The Jewel Tea Company would send a good-looking man to sign up housewives for coffee, tea, condiments and oth-er wares. When orders were delivered, it was usually by an older man who had trouble walking. It seemed to us many of the housewives were disappointed.

There was a longshoreman’s strike in the 1930s that went on for a very long time. It put many of our neighbors out of work. At Christmas, the wives of men who had jobs made sure every kid on the block got a gift. The strike was bru-

tal and I remember a house with the word “scab” painted on the side. Some of the strike-breakers were killed or badly in-jured. My uncle, who was on strike, got a sack of potatoes and a round of cheese from the union hall.

My job at home was to raise and tend the vegetable gar-den that provided quite a bit of food for the table. A friend and I bought two piglets that we raised and eventually sold. We always went to the local dairy for milk that was cheaper than home delivery. All haircuts made by a family friend in her backyard were free.

Dad made beer and threw the old mash into my grand-mother’s chicken yard. On those nights, the chickens couldn’t stay on the roost, drunk as they were from the mash. Grandma was not pleased. To prepare chicken for dinner, she would wring their necks.

My first real job took place when I was 14. I planted to-mato plants working eight hours straight some days for 25¢ an hour. Joining the Boy Scouts was a good diversion and the only vacation I got was a one-week trip to the mountains with our troop. I started going to church at that age, but the minister was so boring that I gave it up. n


The Attack of AlligatorsOcean Hills Country Club often boasts of the wide range

of animals that infiltrate our village. We frequently see coy-otes, skunks, rabbits and squirrels that feel at home here. But unknown to most residents is the arrival of alligators (alliga-tor lizards, to be exact).

Ann Mulvey, resident on Cordoba, where she lives with her husband Jim, discovered one early morning one such lizard on the inside of her kitchen screen door. From head to tail, it measured some 18 inches. How it managed to get into the kitchen is a mystery. It climbed half-way up the screen, when she called Jim for help. Jim, not known as a wildlife expert, casually challenged the reptile and after a fierce bat-tle, picked it off the screen and released it into the wilds.

Their Cordoba neighbors, having heard the ferocious liz-ard is still alive, made sure their doors and windows were tightly shut and locked. But word has leaked, that the alli-gator lizard has been seen wandering through the neighbor-hood. Horrors! n

Experimental Front Lawn Landscape Matures

Trial and ErrorOne or two years ago, Sunny Frowein and an ad hoc

committee, residents of Hydra Village, planned and changed several front lawn areas designed to reduce the water con-sumption. A year later, the committee was able to ascertain what plants were feasible in the environment. They discov-ered the community itself is are subject to mini-climates. Plants that might flourish in one area of our community sim-ply don’t do well in another. The climates in our front areas vary, even when they are merely a few yards apart or across the street.

A number of plants were used to create a colorful bou-quet. Azaleas, thin Cape Bamboo, succulents calendula and yellow gazanias and low succulents complete the design. Additional plants include Gold Moss Sedum, Kalenchoe, dwarf New Zealand flax in variegated colors and Sebecio Blue Chalk. Many plants did not survive; either there was

excessive sunlight or too much shade. To se-lect plants that would survive under most conditions was a dif-ficult decision for the committee.

Rebate for Turf Removal

Jim and Gail Beall, who moved recent-ly into their home at 4965 Lerkas Way, were displeased with their front lawn and few straggly bush-es. So they consulted with Sunny and com-menced to remove the turf and the other plants and replace them with drought tolerant material. The most important criteria in their planning was “delightful.” It had to be delightful to the observer in terms of shapes and

color. But as impor-tant as that was, they discovered that even as individuals they can now solicit the Southern California Water District (in con-junction with the City of Oceanside) for a re-bate to remove turf at a rate of $2 per square foot. Jim calculated that 400 square feet of turf were removed and submitted the fig-ures. He just received a check in the amount of $800.

What the Bealls have done with the drought-resistant

plants and the removal of turf may well be the forerunner of future plantings in the Village. With the prediction of wors-ening drought conditions and the call for reduced irrigation, this may be an important step toward water conservation. n

tion of Abravanel Hall. It was unlike your living room where you entertain guests. Your living room had to be comfortably warm and re-flective of your personal comfort. Abravanel Hall is a place where people gather to be primarily entertained and often used for meetings and exercise. Under those circum-stances, wall and carpeting colors play a secondary role.

What then is the prima-ry role of Abravanel Hall? It serves as a background for

the central stage. Audience attention at these functions is not the color of the wall; it’s the activity on the stage that creates the focal point.

No one is aware of this fact more than women. When a woman wants to show off an interesting piece of necklace, she will wear a plain garment that will not interfere with the focal point: her necklace. And did you know the reason Au-drey Hepburn wore a simple black dress in one of her films? It emphasized her lovely face. Her dress provided no dis-traction to her beauty. It’s the same with interior decora-tions. A plain unobtrusive background emphasizes your furniture and accessories. A monochromatic brown in var-ious shades emphasizes the stage, or the dining tables dur-ing parties. This neutral color will not compete with what is important in the activities of the Hall. This neutral color will never compete with the party table coverings or your outfit.

Before levying criticism at the new interior color at Abra-vanel Hall, consider the function of the room. n

ErrataThe last issue of the Village Voice misnamed the title of

Juan Hernandez. His official title is Landscape Supervisor for O’Connell. The editors apologize and regret the error. n

Fifty Shades of Brown

At one glance at the empty vastness of Abrava-nel Hall, many are stunned at the monochromatic color scheme: Brown and shades of brown. “Where are the col-orful murals on the wall?” “How dull the carpeting is.” “I’m bored at the plainness of the color scheme.”

The entire color combina-tion was devised by an ex-perienced color consultant whose professionalism dates back many years. Color is a very subjective matter; what is good to one, may be abhor-rent to others. No two people, even in the profession, can ever agree on any design that would be satisfactory to every-one. Some would enjoy a yellow room. “Too Bright!” Some wanted a rose colored room. “Too feminine!” Some want-ed green. “It doesn’t go with my wardrobe!” And on and on and on.

In selecting a color, the designer had to discover the func-

Bonnie Lee Roth, A True Artist

There is little doubt that Bonnie Lee Roth is one of the most gifted artist in Ocean Hills. Unlike many artists who have preceded her, Bonnie is a self-taught sculptor. She has no blue prints or patterns. She whittles away blocks of clay revealing heads of characters, of children and of histori-cal notables. When she attended formal classes at UCLA and UC Northridge in sculpturing, she was told to leave the class; instructions from any teacher would influence her tal-ent.

Born in Cleveland, Ohio, she moved to California with her parents when she was 10 years old. The family settled in a section of Los Angeles called Beverlywood and she attend-ed nearby Hamilton High School. Her artistic talents were

not revealed at any school, but as a child, she would dig up the clay in her backyard and create little figures that were part of her story-telling scenes.

Bonnie was married and by 20, she had children. She says that she paid them five cents an hour to pose for her paintings. While attending night school one night, she was

approached by someone who asked if she could sculpt a piece from “Fiddler on the Roof.” And she did. And from then on in, family members began asking her to sculpt. This evolved into sculpt heads of her children. The talent for sculpting came naturally…totally without outside instruc-

tions. She pro-ceeded going through peri-ods of trial and error. She was constantly re-minded about “undercuts,” sculpting an ob-ject that allowed a molding form to be removed easily.

Along with her tal-ent of sculpt-ing, she entered the field of de-signing jewel-

ry. It became a family affair: she made the center piece, her dad created the bead work. Other family members joined in the enterprise and they were very successful. She gave it up when her dad died and the business closed.

Her commercial work involved a line of Judaic art and ceramic gift bags for Nordstrom. Currently she sculpts every

day. And she sculpts from her heart. She shares her home with Sid, a retired statistics professor. She does most of her work in a small corner of their garage. Between Sid and her-self, they have four children, nine grandchildren and three great grandchildren.

Their home is filled with her paintings and sculptures of flowers, children, portraits and full figures. One of her sculpted pieces can be seen in the art gallery at the Club-house. You will be astonished at the realism of this master-piece, crafted by a master artist. n

Kippel’s Pet KornerBy Ellen Kippel

Recently there have been several incidents at our dog park. We all want to take our dogs to the dog park to social-ize our pets as well as to have a fun time socializing with each other. Here are 5 ways to make your experience at dog parks so much more enjoyable.

Think about why you’re going there in the first place: If it is to exercise or socialize your dog, then don’t go. Dog parks should be a supplement to a dog’s daily activity and socialization, not the primary source of it. If you’re only go-ing to do your own socializing, don’t go. Your dog needs your attention and supervision while in a park

Exercise your dog’s brain and body before arriving: Be-fore you head to a dog park, run your dog and get out all that pent-up energy that can be the source of so much doggy drama. Don’t take a wired-up dog into a stimulating envi-ronment like a dog park. Practice recall, lying down on com-mand, leave it, drop it, stay, and other essential commands. Your dog needs to respond to these commands in an instant, no matter what else is going on around her, in order to make

sure you both stay safe in a dog park. Leave at the first sign of trouble: Leave when someone

who hasn’t done things right with their dog comes in. The second you see an overly excited dog coming in, or your dog is starting to get tense, or someone’s dog isn’t listening to their owner or worse, not listening to other dogs’ social cues, just go. Get out of the situation before it becomes a situation. It’s better to be safe to go to the vet’s office.

Learn your dog’s personality when it comes to group situations: What is your dog like in social situations? Are there personality types she clashes with? Is she fearful around certain types of dogs or in certain situations? Does she pay attention to social cues from other dogs even when she’s excited? Does she tend to panic, or freeze, or lash out when things get tense? Know your dog’s every quirk and know how to recognize both the signs that your dog is building up to a certain reaction as well as the triggers that cause it. Then know how to stop that reaction before your dog even gets there.

Study up on dog body language: This is the most impor-tant thing you can do for your dog. Learn what it looks like when dogs are being dominant, nervous, unsure, overly ex-cited. What does it look like when a dog is asking to play versus being a bully. Learn the signs for when excitement switches to aggression. Learn what your dog is telling you and other dogs by the slightest twitch of the ear, pause of the body, or dilation of the pupils. Learn what proper and rude dog behavior is according to dogs, so you can determine which dogs in the park may become a problem, or if your dog is actually the problem. n

Village HappeningsBy Selma Leighton

In case you didn’t notice and I hope you did, my monthly article did not ap-pear in the last edition. Here’s the reason: I had a rather serious back surgery and although it was successful, I was in rehab for six weeks. It was no fun. But on the other hand, it was nice being waited on hand and foot. My daughter Cindy said it reminded her of the time when her kids were little. She said all she had to do was to point and someone jumped.

However, I am home now and doing just great. But as a result of having been away, I didn’t have a chance to prowl the halls of the clubhouse in order to find interesting and sometimes funny tidbits to report. But I must say being away from Ocean Hills for that long, made me realize what a beautiful and wonderful place we live in.

I certainly missed the golf and someday I hope to play again.

I missed playing ma jong in the sewing room when the music was blaring in the hall for the dancers.

I missed the chaos in the parking lot as the barriers were moved about.

I missed Frank Petronella’s weekend movies which he works so hard at presenting.

I missed Alfred DeLeo’s Friday morning discussion group that are usually fun but are sometimes slightly heat-ed.

I miss the tidbits of gossip that goes along with a com-munity of our size.

I missed my friends, but mostly I missed the beauty and safety I feel every time I pass through the front gate and set-tle into my own home. OHCC is a special place and there’s nothing like being away for a while to make one appreci-ate it. n

grandparent for 12 years. I remember my daughter having her first child in a Las Vegas hospital when she had invited a mob to celebrate with her in the delivery room! More would have attended, but they were on a winning streak at the slots downstairs.

But now after 10 and 12 years, the two oldest are no lon-ger interested in playing hide and seek. And cartoons on TV don’t particularly interest them. I can’t figure what to do with them. I don’t have iPads or iPods or anything else with “i.”

I understand most kids have personal smart phones to talk to their friends. And if they don’t want to talk, they can send secret messages on tiny keyboards now referred to as texting. My grandkids haven’t arrived at that stage yet, but I’m afraid that if and when happens, Nana and Grandpa will fade into the horizon.

Now Sarah, the eldest one, is obsessed with writing plays. She writes the plays and her siblings are conned into acting out the parts. Declan, at 10, while not the best soc-cer player on his team, can hold his own. But while he just cooled his State Math Test with a perfect score, he finds his school a bit boring.

Now the youngest two, Colin at 6 and Emmeline two years older, are still in the “fun years.” Hunting garden snails and searching for coyotes still fascinate them. Emme-line is the beauty queen, loves to pose for the camera. Colin is still in the best years of childhood. He usually has a bout of wrestling with his older brother the moment he awakens. They like to go to Chinex where they look forward to sweet and sour pork. And they look forward to my pumpkin pie, too.

The morning routine looks like this:Nana: OK, kiddoes, we’re ready for breakfast.Colin: What’s for breakfast, Nana?Nana: You’re having corn flakes or porridge.Colin: We don’t like porridge. Emmeline: Yeah, and I don’t like corn flakes.Nana: What do you want?Colin: Do you have any sweet and sour pork?Nana: No sweetie, that’s for dinner. Your mother would

The Importance of LightingAn important element in home décor

lighting not only illuminates work areas and highlights our surroundings, but also enables us to per-ceive color and texture. In designing a lighting scheme for each, first determine what kind of light you need: general task, or accent and decide where you need it. The most effec-tive lighting schemes use a combination of types to create a layered effect. There are several kinds of fixtures available to achieve the necessary result. Some fixtures will provide on one kind of light while others, all three.

General lighting — or ambient lighting — can provide an overall illumination in any room…large or small. Almost any overhead system provides good ambient lighting. Re-cessed cans, chandeliers and ceiling fixtures are good op-tions. Some floor lamps, including torcheres that can reflect light onto the ceiling, also do the trick nicely.

Task lighting is used specifically for activities such as

brushing your teeth, showering, cooking, reading or sew-ing… anywhere you want to light a specific space with-out intruding on it. You can control the intensity of the light with the wattage of the bulb and with the bulb’s distance from the work area. Consider recessed, cable and indepen-dent lighting as well as lamps on the desk, table or floor lamps when you need to light a defined area.

Accent lighting is effective when you want to illumi-nate a specific object in order to emphasize different textures and surfaces in a room. Or you may just want to add a deco-rative element by using accent lighting. Track lights and re-cessed canisters with pinhole or eyeball fixtures are perfect for lighting artwork. Sconces throw a wash of light along a wall. Adding light switch dimmers can also alter the mood of the entire room. n

The Strong Two Club BidWhen using the weak two bids, two clubs is used for

strong hands. These hands usually contain at least 21 points but if you have 8 1/2 tricks you should probably open with 2 clubs. The standard practice today forces partner until you reach one less than game.

There are three responses in common use at this time. Two diamonds weak, two diamonds waiting and steps. Two

Accent lighting emphasizes pictures and art objects. General lighting hidden behind crown moulding.


diamonds waiting doesn’t show your partner anything and should be discarded. Since you refuse to show your partner anything you are just defending a colossal ego.“ Steps, ei-ther points (0-3,4-6,etc.) or honors (aces and kings) are bid the same way. Bid two diamonds for the first step and then one higher suit for each additional step. Steps has the value of showing strength but lacks any distributional declaration. One can get too high in the bidding and miss your best suit. Two diamonds weak makes that bid in response with less than 7 points. If your hand contains 0-3 points support your partners major suit or bid the cheapest no trump. With 4-6 points you must force to game.

Bidding with positive values is about the same in all three cases. Bid a five card or longer suit if you have it or bid two no trump. These bids hold for both opener and re-sponder. Three clubs asks for a major and can be bid by ei-ther party. If responder has seven or more points you should be making a mild slam try since the combined hands will generally produce at least eleven tricks. Don’t overlook 4-4 fits in the minors. Many people end up in three no trump by bidding too aggressively and miss minor suit slams.

Try to keep the bidding as low as possible so you can show useful features.

As you can probably tell, of the three systems, I pre-

fer two diamond weak. It shows strength and distribution and releases captaincy of the hand as quickly as possible. If you must be a modern bidder go with Steps. This approach gives up only distribution and you will be in “step” with the crowd. n

On DiningBy Staff Writer

Vintana1250 Auto ParkwayEncondido, CA 92029(760) 745-7777

This restaurant is located in the most unlikely place: three stories above an automobile showroom. We entered glass doors into an expansive room filled with gleaming Lexus cars, each in need of a new owner. Ascending on a glass-framed elevator, we were greeted by three young la-dies properly dressed in black and were seated at a table at a lower level. Yes, there were diners at tables stretched across the long balcony above, too. The view from the enormous windows was spectacular especially for those who enjoy seeing the tops of automobiles. The dining room resembled that of a luxury cruise liner without the formality of tuxe-doed gentlemen and bejeweled ladies.

We were there on Tuesday, “Date night,” when Vintana offered two entrees and a bottle of wine all for $49.95. Such a deal! Dinner started off with warm popovers served with ja-lapeño honey butter, a refreshing surprise from the standard

bread usually served elsewhere. One guest had the pork porterhouse, a one-inch thick chop brûléed with a mélange of vegetables and fig jam. It was a new taste combining salty with sweet. My partner ordered grilled salmon encrust-ed with black and white sesame seeds, accented with an Asian touch of soy and ginger. Accompanying the dish was a scoop of mashed garlic potatoes and crispy snap peas. She judged the salmon the best she had ever tasted: both moist and flavorful. Our third guest ordered lobster mac & cheese, a new favorite among the foodies. It surpassed all expecta-tions with generous chunks of lobster in a blue cheese sauce embellished with bacon, and candied walnuts.

Expecting something special in their chicken and pas-ta offerings, I was disappointed as I probed the dish for the few slivers of chicken buried in a creamy mound of shell pasta and florets of cauliflower. Four slices of sausages on top failed to elevate the dish from mediocrity. But we en-joyed two bottles of wine: one, a sparkling white wine and the other a rich merlot.

There was a full bar that boasts a selection of 100 variet-ies of vodka, an outdoor lanai with a separate menu and a casual lounge with flaming circular firepits where crowds of yuppies noisily congregated and kept the barmen very busy.

On regular days, most entrées hovered in the twenty dol-

Service was excellent and the waiter had full knowledge of the menu. (A follow-up visit on Saturday night proved to be a disaster. The waiter failed to place our order for starters and we had to wait 25 minutes for the en-trées to appear. The restaurant may be the crown jewel in the Cohn Restaurant Group, but avoid Saturday nights for dining.) The hours are 11:30 a.m. to 10 at night, daily. n

Bounty Paper Towels with Dawn

Proctor and Gamble has just in-troduced a new innovative prod-uct that will probably make most housewives happy: a paper tow-el embedded with soap. According to their press release, these Boun-ty paper towels, when activated by water, produces a cleaning prod-uct that results “four times clean-er than a used dishcloth.” It also declares that the paper is the thick-est strongest Bounty available with 70% more fibers in each sheet and the cloth-like durability will stay in-tact while cleaning.

The towels can be reused and is great for cleaning pots, pans, countertops, stainless steel and mirrors. We’ve tried it and the product appears to live up to its hype. These towels are priced under $3 and are sold at most supermarkets

Torani flavored syrupThere appear to be dozens of creams and flavored coffee

on the shelves of local markets. But here’s a new twist on fla-voring your morning coffee. A few teaspoons of Torani syr-up in your cup of coffee will take your drink to new heights.

Ralphs has a number of varieties: vanilla, hazelnut, cara-mel and salted caramel. Most are sugar-free with zero calo-ries. Located in the coffee section, Torani sells for $5.49.

Water Recirculation PumpHave you run your faucet for several minutes in your

kitchen or bathroom waiting for the hot water to arrive? It is estimated that each household wastes about 15,000 gallons of water annually waiting for the hot water to appear in the faucet.

Recirculation pumps circulate water in the hot water pipes in your house so that you won’t waste water while flushing out the cold water as you wait for the hot water to arrive. These devices have been on the market for quite a while, but only recently have gained popularity in light of the current water shortage. It is a device that will bring you hot water within a few seconds and is particularly effective when the water heater is some distance from the kitchen or bathroom.

These devices are relatively small and can be installed under any sink. Most operate on a 24 hour timer and are available through any plumber or handyman. While listed on Amazon, they are mostly priced around $200. n

Prepare Pastry: With an electric mixer, cream the but-ter then slowly add sugar and beat on “high” until it is light and fluffy. Add flour and incorporate with a spoon just un-til mixture is combined, form a flattened disc, wrap and re-frigerate for 20-30 minutes. Lightly rub flour into a pastry cloth on your counter, also roll your “pastry sock” covered rolling pin lightly in flour. Now roll the pastry disc into a 13-inch round, roll pastry over your pin and unroll over the tart pan. Gently with the side of your hand, push the pastry in place. Roll the pin over the top of the pan to cut off excess pastry. Chill pastry in pan* 30 minutes or until you are ready to bake.

“Blend Bake”: Place a piece of parchment paper or Cut-Rite Wax paper on the pastry with the edges of the pa-per sticking up. Cover the bottom of the paper with “Bak-er’s Beans” or real dried beans to weight down the pastry, place tart pan on a HOT baking sheet (open on one edge) on the rack below the center of preheated 400º oven, bake 10 to 15 minutes until the edges of the pastry are light gold-en. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and lift out the paper with the beans. Return the tart pan still on the bak-ing sheet to the oven. TURN HEAT DOWN TO 350º and bake 7 to 10 minutes to dry bottom of pastry, do not let cen-ter turn brown ! Remove sheet with tart pan and IMME-DIATELY pour Lemon Filling into the hot partially baked

tart shell on the bak-ing sheet, place bak-ing sheet on the lower rack of the oven, TURN HEAT TO 350º and bake 7 to 10 minutes, edge of filling will puff up but center remains soft. Re-move sheet and cool tart still on baking sheet to a cake rack. Tart can re-main on the counter all day but refrigerate over-night. Ready to serve,

set tart on a 28-oz. can, loosen the top edge in a few plac-es with the tip of a small knife, the metal side of the pan will fall. Tart remains on the bottom of the pan.

To Prepare Lemon Filling: While pastry bakes, beat eggs with an electric mixer, slowly add sugar then beat on “high” 3-5 minutes. Add butter, salt, lemon juice, combine on “low.”

*Caution: Remember, you are using a loose-bottom tart pan, when placing the pan in the refrigerator, lift it by the sides, not the bottom or you will loosen the pastry. Always bake this type of pan on a small cookie sheet, or you can burn your arm on the side of the pan. n

The Golf GameBy Peter Russell

“If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got!”

I don’t know who coined that phrase but it absolute-ly applies to all of us golfers. Just think about the number of times you have hit a drive out of bounds, for example, only to take the penalty and HIT IT OUT OF BOUNDS ONCE AGAIN! You probably did the same thing wrong, or at least repeated something on the second stroke that you did wrong on the first stroke. Not rocket science.

So, what’s the solution? Almost all of the sources I read, and YouTube.com videos I watch while preparing for these columns, seem to pinpoint the solution as one of prepara-tion. This usually means training and practice. Lessons from a pro are surely one of the most effective, and I’m convinced that those pros who teach by taping specific functions is also a solution. It is focused training and they have some pret-ty specialized cameras that allow them to dissect the ac-tions to provide you a good set of corrective moves. In my short time that I’ve been watching PGA events on TV, I think that the commentary is also a very healthy source of infor-mation that could fit into your repertoire. Ultimately, it will come down to how willing you are to practice what you are

Pay attention to where you’re going, and then concentrate on getting there.


taught, regardless of the source and medium of the train-ing you have received. There is another axiom that applies; “Practice makes perfect,” but it is more apt to use this final bit of advice; “perfect practice makes perfect!”

It has also been reported to me by several sources in the village that the local Golf Academy of America campus lo-cated off Palomar Airport Road provides free training on Saturdays that includes some very sophisticated cameras that the students at the campus use to film your moves, and then analyzes your strokes for your consideration. When I get around to getting this training myself I will give every-one my summary of the system they provide, and any ad-ditional costs if any. Almost sounds too good to be true, but it makes sense to encourage the golf students to practice on someone, and the “someone” might as well be Ocean Hill’s golfers, right? I’ll let you know what I find out.

So where does a committed golfer start? I’d like to sug-gest that we live on a near perfect “campus” for learning golf. There seems to be no argument that approximately 80% of all golf strokes ANYWHERE are the pitches, chips and the putts. I also think that PGA events focus a lot of time on analyzing the drives because they are so exciting, but they also spend an equal amount of time on some very impor-tant basics of GIR (Greens in Regulation) stats, as well as how many putts are made during a round of golf. Every pro golfer is tabulated to compare these types of stats so you can then draw your own conclusions. I often make a copy of my score sheet after a round (both here and at an outside long course) and marvel at how many mistakes I make with the pitching and chipping, not to mention putting, and what I “might” have scored if I just practiced those strokes and just focused on getting the ball near the green to get set up for the final putting.

As they say, HAVE A BALL OUT THERE! n

A Golf PoemBy Bob Knodell

As I sit in my chairBeside the 12th holeMy eyes are focusedOn every last soul

Some get on the greenWith their very first shot

While others lamentWhen their game goes to pot

They land in the bunkerThey fume and they pout

It seems like forever“Til they finally get outTheir chip shot is short

The putt is not trueThey often must wonder

What do I have to do?This game is a puzzle

With all of its woesBut we still love to play it

Despite all the lowsSo we’ll just keep on pluggin’

We’ve all come so farMiracles happen!

We might get that par! n

Feel-Better Foodsfor Arthritis

The hallmarks of arthritis are inflammation and stiff-ness. Arthritis affects people differently since they consti-tute many diseases. A need for pain relief has sparked many myths such as: “eat a cherry a day; eliminate all dairy prod-ucts; drink cider vinegar; or consume daily a dozen gin-soaked raisins.” How can we distinguish myths from real science?

Dr. Roxanne Sukol, medical director of the Cleveland Clinic Wellness Enterprise, strongly emphasizes: “the best feel-better food for arthritis is for us to emulate our ances-tors’ diet. We did not evolve to eat nutritionally-stripped carbs. White flour, white rice, sugar, cornstarch and syrup were only invented during the past few hundred years and increase our ratios of omega-6 that may contribute to inflam-matory disease. Our bodies function more soundly when they consume intact carbs, such as fresh deeply colored veg-etables, fruits and whole grains.”

A 2006 survey by International Food Info Council Foun-dation determined people are unclear about the types of fats they consume. About 42% of people polled were trying to cut back on one kind of good fat: polyunsaturated. The good fats are easy to remember: they are then unfats: monoun-saturated and polyunsaturated. Butter, lard and coconut oils are bad saturated fats. The partially hydrogenated oil in packaged and processed foods is definitely a bad fat.

Dr. Sukol opines: “the focus shouldn’t be on low fat. In-stead the emphasis should be on switching out the typical low-fat diet for a diet rich in nutrients.” Healthy oils such as olive, avocado, grapeseed, and safflower or walnut oil will provide you with anti-inflammatory properties and different beneficial vitamins and antioxidants. Walnut oil contains ten times more omega-3 fatty acids than olive oil does. Try this delicate oil but do not heat it.

Omega-3 and omega-6 are the two main families of poly-unsaturated fats. However, their roles in our diet are quite different. Omega-3 fatty acids are found primarily in green, leafy vegetables and fatty fish. They are the molecule re-sponsible for photosynthesis, movement and flexibility. Omega-6 fatty acids, being more chemically stable, is the fat choice for processed foods including many breakfast cere-als, baked goods, vegetable oils, including corn and soybean oils.


Dr. Sukol explains: “The standard American diet con-tains 14 to 25 times more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3s which may contribute to inflammatory disease. The feel- better power of Omega-3 is the reason you should eat more omega-3s for a healthier balance. We have data that shows that high dose omega-3 supplementation reduces symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. In contrast, omega-6s increase the inflammatory cascade.”

“By taking the approach of eating fresher, colorful food and adding exercise, I am not surprised to see improve-ments within as little as two weeks. Focus on Omega 3 fat-ty acids. Limit your intake of Omega-6 fatty acids that propi-tiate inflammatory response. Increase sunshine and dietary sources of vitamin D.” n

I Love A MysteryBy Ira M. Landis

The Expats is the story of a seemingly ordinary working woman, Kate Moore, whose husband, Dexter, is offered a lu-crative job in Luxembourg, a move that unraveled every-thing they believed about each other. Kate and Dexter have struggled to make ends meet so they jump at the chance to make a new life abroad with the promise of rich rewards.

Kate has been leading a double life, and leaving Ameri-ca forces her to abandon her dangerous but heroic job. She soon discovers that it will be harder than she thought to shed her past, especially while coping with the weight of an unbearable secret.

Dexter seems to be keeping secrets of his own, working long hours for a banking client whose name he can’t reveal. When another American couple befriends them, Kate be-gins to peel back the layers of deception that surround her, revealing an unbelievable con that threatens her family, her

marriage, and her life.The Expats is set in some of Europe’s most interesting lo-

cales, and leads readers to a provocative, startling conclu-sion. I believe it would make an exciting movie: I can envi-sion Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie playing Dexter and Kate. This is Chris Pavone’s first novel after two decades of being a book editor and ghostwriter. In my view, he has gotten off to a great start—I have already placed an order for his next book — The Accident.

Jack Higgins’ Rain On The Dead is a cutting-edge thriller featuring his regular cast of characters trying to thwart ter-rorists, including an old nemesis, The Preacher. In the past few years, the killing and capture of al-Queda leaders has left the terrorist organization wounded but by no means dead.

On a dark summer night, two Chechen mercenaries emerge from the waters off Nantucket to kill a high-value target, the former President of the United States, Jake Caza-let. Unfortunately for them, Cazalet has guests that night, in-cluding black ops specialist Sean Dillon and his colleague, Afghan war hero Captain Sara Gideon. The Chechens do not survive the night, but Dillon is curious about how they even


got on the island. He discovers a name from very far back in his past. He believes if this man is working with the terror-ists now, the assassination attempt is only the beginning; the next time the results may be much different.

Dillon’s knowledge of events and history during the pe-riod known as “the troubles” plays a major role sorting out the terrorist problems he and his associates are combating. n

The Real Estate CornerBy Tom Brennan

Tom has been involved in all aspects of real estate for more than 40 years, as a lawyer, investor and realtor.

International BuyersThe National Association of Realtors (NAR) recently

published the results of its latest survey of realtors (covering the period from April, 2013 through March, 2014 – the “Sur-vey Year”) which measures the sales of U.S. residential prop-erties to international buyers.

The survey covers multiple categories of potential inter-est to the real estate community, including the origin, desti-nation, mode of purchase and motivation of foreign buyers.

These results provide a snapshot of the “international buy-er” who is described in the survey to include both “non-res-ident foreigners” with a permanent residence outside of the U.S. (49%), or a “resident foreigner” who has recently (with-in the last two years) established a residence in the U.S. (51%). The non-resident buyer typically acquires for invest-ment purposes while the resident purchaser buys to estab-lish a permanent residence (often as a result of a job reloca-tion or re-uniting with family members).

1.Sales Volume. The aggregate sales volume from these


international transactions during the Survey Year was $92.2 billion which is a significant increase (approx. 34%) from the previous survey year amount of $68.2 billion. The dollar level of these sales was about 7% of the total US home sales ($1.2 trillion). Moreover, foreign sales increased compared to the previous survey year both in numbers of sales transac-tions and in the average price, (the average sales price paid by foreigners for a residential property was $396,100 while the average domestic sales price was $247,200).

2.Economic and Currency Factors. The international pur-chase activities was fueled, in great measure, by the econom-ic strength of several countries, together with the apprecia-tion of the Chinese Yuan and the Euro making the purchase of U.S. property increasingly affordable for foreigners (al-though both these factors will likely change during the next survey year given the current appreciation of the US dollar against foreign currencies and the stagnation of economic growth in Europe and Asia).

3.All-Cash Sales. The post-recession tightening of credit standards by US lenders has favored the all-cash buyer who constitutes a majority of international purchasers. Some 60% of all reported foreign residential acquisitions were all-cash (up about 1/3 since 2007). In contrast, only about a third of domestic sales during the Survey Year were all-cash. More-

over, since mortgage financing tends to be a major obstacle for many international buyers (as a result of their lack of a US-based credit history, absence of a social security number and the difficulty in meeting the numerous state and feder-al documentary requirements) the majority of internation-al buyers virtually are compelled to acquire U.S. properties with cash since little or no U.S. credit is available.

4. Destination. According to the survey, five countries, namely Canada (19%), China (16%), Mexico (9%), India (5%) and the UK (5%) accounted for 54% of all foreign residential sales transactions in the US during the Survey Year. The top four states in terms of the number of foreign buyers were Florida (23%), California (14%), Texas (12%) and Arizona (6%) which accounted for 55% of total sales. Among the rea-sons cited for this clustering of states were their proximity to the foreigner’s home country (i.e., the West Coast and South-west attract more Asians and South Americans while the East Coast more Europeans and Canadians), the presence of relatives and friends in those destination cities, jobs, educa-tional opportunities and attractive climate conditions.

As the foregoing indicates, while there was a slight slow-ing of the domestic real estate market during the Survey Year, the international sales market remained vibrant and growing. n


Out and About inSan Diego CountyBy Jack Shabel

Everyone knows about Balboa Park and all of the won-derful Museums and the San Diego Zoo, but a beautiful spot that doesn’t seem to get much atten-tion is the Japanese Friendship Gar-den. It is located east of the Organ Pavilion. It’s easy to miss, but if you are a devotee of gardens, peace and tranquility, don’t pass it by.

The garden is named San-Kei-En meaning “Three Scene Garden: Water, Pastoral and Mountain.” It is named after a garden of the same name in San Diego’s sis-

ter city, Yokohama, Japan. It’s design is guided by the orig-inal principles of the Japanese garden, while incorporating the regional landscape and climate. Some of the features of the garden are an exhibit house with a bonsai exhibit, a dry stone garden, a koi pond, a tea garden, a cherry tree grove, a small stream with waterfalls and decorative bridges and, of course, curved pathways because curved pathways discour-age evil spirits from entering the Garden. The Garden is ex-panding and this year is adding an area with a pavilion, am-phitheater, expanded restrooms and a kitchen facility. The plans are to have a Childrens Garden opening in 2017.

The day we visited the Garden, it was cool and cloudy. Even with the weather being very un-San Diego like, we were still impressed with the beauty and ambiance of this lovely site. The display in the exhibit house, which is in the typical style for a mountain retreat in Japan, had an interest-ing display about Yokohama as well as beautiful Japanese artwork. The lower part of the Garden is where the Azalea and Camellia Garden, Cherry Tree Grove, Dragon Bridge and Dry Waterfall are. This does require a bit of a downhill walk to get to and, of course, an uphill to return. It is a little steep, but it is worth the walk. Right now is when the cher-

The plumage of these sleek-looking, crested, 7- to 8-inch-long birds is a predominant-ly brownish color, with a pale yellowish belly. The tail, which grades from gray to black, ends in a narrow, bright-yellow band at the tip that looks as if it had been care-fully dipped into a can of yellow paint.

Why is it called waxwing? A secondary feather of each wing ends with a waxy bright red tip. Contrasting with

these colors is the bird’s distinctive angular black face mask. The sleek crest can be raised and lowered. The bird’s high-pitched call is a soft, thin zeeee or tseee sound.

This species ranges from coast to coast across Mexico, the United States and much of adjacent Canada, favoring sub-urban residential areas, open woodlands and orchards. In winter, they typically fly in tightly synchronized flocks of as many as 50 birds or more. It’s fascinating to watch a large flock as the waxwings make instant sharp turns in unison, without banging into each other! n


TravelRecollectionsBy Joe Ashby

Italy, Verona and Bolzano

We were on our way to Verona. Crossing the Po Riv-er we reached Cremona where Stradivari carved and shaped woods for more than 1,400 world prized violins, only 400 of which remain. Verona is home to the oldest university in Europe, dating to 1088, and is referred to as The Painted City. It was built by the Romans and dates from the 1st century BC, be-ginning 400 years of Roman domination. It now has a population of 200,000. Verona was a free city until 1250, and later was conquered by Napoleon and then the Austrians. We started our walking tour through Verona. The crenulated brick walls flanking the bridge and surrounding the 14th-century castle, was built for Beatrice LaScala from Milan. She married a wealthy viscount from Verona thus forming an alliance between Milan and Verona. The Patron Saint of Verona is Zeno from Morocco, also called the Black Bishop. The Adige River beside the castle, originates in the Tyrols and drains into the Adriatic is the second longest in Italy. The stone bridge was bombed in WW II but is now re-paired with red bricks replacing the white marble stones. In April 1945, all the bridges were destroyed by the fleeing Germans. We crossed over the moat to enter Castle Veccio (old castle) and the oldest street in Verona. Casa di Giuliet-ta is where the largest crowds gather to make Shakespeare’s fiction of Romeo & Juliet come alive. In a narrow passage-way today’s tourists added their names and notes to walls like those of thousands before them, and each February 14th a winner is selected for the best love letter to Juliet. The oldest square in Verona is a lively flea-market bordered by tall nar-row ghetto buildings and a dominating clock tower.

It was but a two-hour drive to Bolzano. We walked through town to a Tyrolean restaurant for a “little meal.” It turned out to be a feast with delicious minestrone, many meats, spaetzli, potatoes and custard dessert. Bolzano is high in the Alps near Austria and is a blend of Italian and Tyrolean cultures, the best from both Germany and Italy. We visited the city square where various armies have parad-ed through: Bavarians during the Napoleonic Wars, Austro-Hungarians, Italians, Germans and the present-day army of the Italian Republic. It has been the venue for appearanc-es by Emperor Franz Joseph, his successor Karl I & his con-

sort Zita, King Vittorio Emanuele III, and Mussolini. There is a wine entrance to the large Gothic church. It was common for priests to sell indulgences, and they sold wine to rich peo-ple so they could get rid of their sins. Outside the church, a large painting of the crucifixion reflected images of sponsors painted below to better prove their penitence. There was heavy bombing of Bolzano during WW II, and not having smart bombs, allies sometimes missed the railway station and hit the church. Hitler made Bolzano a part of the Third Reich, which brought out many partisans. Today the street is lined with fashionable 5th Avenue shops.

And tomorrow, we intend to see the 5,300-year-old mum-my found preserved in the Alps. n


Watching WildlifeStory and photos by Joan ComitoPresident, OHCC Birdwatchers Club

Costa Rica from aBirdwatcher’s Perspective

Eight of us Ocean Hills residents recently enjoyed a nine-day trip to Costa Rica, and this was my first trip out of the United States to a place on my “bucket list.” Our first lodg-ing was in Tortuguera National Park on the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica — reached only by small river boats. After a lengthy boat ride, we reached our lodging, situated on a riv-erbank in the lush, tropical rainforest.

What to do first — unpack? No, I grabbed my cam-

era and binoculars and went out to explore the rainforest. I spotted someone looking into a tree with binoculars. What was up there, I wondered? Two colorful Keel-billed Tou-cans! How lucky that this person, Jack, was also a bird-watcher. As we later discovered, he and I were the only birdwatchers in the tour group of 40. And so the hunt for birds and other wildlife began.

During the two days at our first lodging, Jack and I ex-plored the grounds starting at 6 a.m., searching for color-ful and unusual birds yet to be discovered. Some of them al-lowed a quick look, while others lingered long enough for a photo. Many of their names were as unusual as the birds themselves—such as the Green-backed Euphonia, White-collared Manakin and the Masked Tityra where the male looked totally different from the female. Howler monkeys



were heard howling as they ran across the lodge roofs. We spotted a Three-toed Sloth, along with colorful butterflies. But I was surprised there were few flowers in bloom, and few hummingbirds — not what I had expected.

Three river cruises on our tour took us to different lo-cations where some of the birds were unique to each area. Many of them were pointed out and identified by our Costa Rican guide, Alejandro. He would excitedly call out, “there is an Agami, birdwatchers come to the front,” “Boat-billed Heron,” “Amazon Kingfisher,” “Bare-throated Tiger Her-on” with chick in a nest, “Anhinga” holding its wings out to dry. Snowy Egrets and Little Blue Herons were plentiful along the riverbanks. Iguanas and other lizards of all sizes and colors perched on rocks and tree branches. Caimans, a smaller kind of crocodile, were on one river while American Crocodiles were on another. We watched Squirrel and Spi-der monkeys swinging and gliding among the trees.

At one point, the boat was pulled over to the riverbank and Alejandro got a leaf with a tiny frog that had a red body and bluish legs. This was a Blue Jeans Poison Dart Frog —

not to be handled! In times past, native peoples used its poi-son to tip their darts.

On one cruise, Alejandro pointed out, “Common Po-too.” Egads! What could that be? There it was, looking like an erect, slender stump of a tree branch. Farther upriver, Alejandro called out, “a Great Potoo!” What? An even big-ger, light brown “stump” in a tree? Yes, there it was! Lat-er he yelled out, “Scarlet Macaws ahead in the sky!” But be-ing quite far away, they were difficult to see except for the red color.

The last day of our trip ended at Manuel Antonio Na-tional Park on the Pacific Coast. While some went swim-ming, a friend and I decided to walk the trail away from the beaches. A short distance ahead was a photographer peer-ing up with his camera. It turned out he was taking pic-tures of a big woodpecker with bright red face and crest and a light tan bill — a Pale-billed Woodpecker. Later, we came upon some Capuchin Monkeys. A few came down look-ing for fruit pods on the ground. They sat at eye level next to the trail peeling open the pods, as if posing – oblivious to the people around them taking pictures.

And so our wonderful trip came to an end. I left foot-prints, and came away with photographs and 50 new birds to add to my “life list.” n


The Street WhereYou Live:Patmos WayBy Dora Truban

This small rocky Greek island in the Ae-gean Sea is situated off the west coast of Tur-key. About 2,998 inhabitants live in Patmos’ delightfully unspoiled 13.15 square miles.

In 95 AD, Roman Emperor Domitian heavily persecuted, exiled or killed Chris-tians and Jews. Religious traditions state Domitian banished John – also identified as Saint John - to Patmos where he wrote the Book of Revelations.

The magnet attracting the numerous Greek Orthodox pilgrims to Patmos are: the Monastery of Saint John the Divine and the Holy Cave of the Apocalypse. Both are UNESCOs World Heritage sites.

Patmos also offers recreational tourism. Leisurely ram-bling on old foot paths could lead you to a delightful visit to local vineyards called Abelonas, visit wildlife sanctuaries, or

Scams UpdateBy Ira M. Landis

I recently reported on a tax scam brought to my attention by Tom Schneider. As an update, the Associated Press re-cently reported that fake IRS agents have targeted more than 366,000 people with harassing phone calls demanding payments and threatening jail as part of a huge tax scam that has cost taxpayers more than $15.5 million.

More than 3,000 people have fallen for the ruse since 2013. The scam has claimed victims in almost every state. One unidentified victim lost more than $500,000. The crim-


Guess Who?By Virginia McConnell

Have you guessed? The answer is DON OL-SON.

Both Don and his brother Forest were born in Glendale, CA, and their father was the may-or of the city. Don gradu-ated from UC Berkeley in three years with a major in business. He started his career with Price Water-house at a salary of $200 a month. The only way was up. After two years he decided to try something dif-ferent. His brother Forest had started a real estate company and wanted Don to join him. The name of the company was Forest E. Olson. Don became President of the company and over the years expanded it to 70 offices throughout Southern California, where it was the most copied company because of its training program. (Some of the people who received training by his company went on to start major companies such as Prudential and Century 21. His was the first compa-ny in the entire state to use computers that matched buyers and sellers. Don also enjoyed traveling to many major cities as a motivational speaker.

Forest E. Olson was eventually purchased by Coldwell Banker. Don was president of the Coldwell Banker Residen-tial Division. During one of his motivational engagements, he was introduced to the love of his life, his wife Joyce. They have been married for 40 years. Between them they have ten grandchildren and two adorable Papillon dogs. They moved to Ocean Hills in 1997 and Don was the President of the Vil-lage of Cyrus for nine years. Don enjoyed golf and was the match play champion in 2004 and 2005, and has the trophies to prove it. Don and Joyce were very active in Ballroom Dance and Theatre Arts. They love to entertain their many friends and serve the most outstanding dinners. They truly enjoy life at Ocean Hills!

If you are interested in joining in on the Guess Who? fun, dig out those old photo albums and please call me, Virginia McConnell 760-295-1979 or e-mail me at [email protected]. Who knows, maybe we’ll be seeing you in a future issue of the Village Voice. n

inals do not discriminate. They are calling people of all in-come levels and backgrounds.

The scam is so widespread that investigators believe that there is more than one group of perpetrators, including some overseas. Stay on guard — don’t let them add OHCC to their sucker’s list. Remember that the IRS does not call er-rant taxpayers — all initial contacts are by mail.

The letter promised millions, claiming a Publishers Clearing House winner, “In the value of $9,222,350.00,” Mar-jorie Flatum read.

The 90-year-old widow had to do one simple thing to claim her prize: send money.

“First I gave them $70,000,” she remembered. “That was my retirement savings.”

It was “federal deposit insurance” the scam artists prom-ised to return, but then they asked for more. This time, Fla-tum took out a reverse mortgage on her home for $300,000.. “It was a scam,” she soon learned. “I lost everything. I was devastated.” The Publishers Clearing House scam is so com-mon, the sweepstakes warns consumers on their website.

The 81-year-old from Ballard just got the call. A regu-lar Publishers Clearing House participant, Rochester almost believed it. ”He said, ‘We can’t just send you this money,’” Rochester said. The man asked for her bank routing number. So, Rochester hung up, sure it was a scam. “It’s crooked as can be,” she said. “It’s fraud.”

Flatum wishes she’d done the same. On PCH’s website, the organization warns consumers that they never notify big winners by social media, phone, or email. They also nev-er ask for money as a deposit. “Why did I ever fall for that?” she said. I need some help, I really need some help.” She’s contacted law enforcement, including the FBI, all of whom have told her the money is gone.

How would you react if you received such a phone call? There were so many Red Flags. Talk to a family member or friend before sending money or giving out personal infor-mation. None of us wants anyone in OHCC to become a vic-tim of such cold-hearted scoundrels. Keep your guard up at all times. If it is too good to be true it isn’t. n


The flag of the United States is the emblem of our iden-tity as a separate nation, which the United States of Ameri-ca has been for more than 200 years. The United States Flag Code establishes advisory rules for display and care of the national flag of the United States of America. It is Chapter 1 of Ti-tle 4 of the United States Code. What does this code re-ally tell us? Read on...

When the flag is hung vertically on a wall, window or door the Union (blue) should be to the observer’s left. When the flag is hung either hor-izontally or ver-tically against a wall, the Union (blue field) should be to the observ-er’s left.

other words, the flag is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem), PLEASE take it down and deliver it to the front desk at the Clubhouse and it will be properly de-stroyed. If you are unable to take a flag down, please call a neighbor or even a veteran board member and get help to

remove the flag. When the flag is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem, it should be removed.

Here are a couple of other flag-related issues that you

Rules for Display andCare of the U.S. Flag

may not know: What about “wearing the flag”? Section 8 of the flag code states: “The flag should never be used as wear-ing apparel, bedding, or drapery.” What about those Amer-ican flag lapel pins that so many folks wear? The flag code thought of that one, too. Section 8 rather elegantly states, “The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.”

Please take a good look at your flag and see if it passes the above code. If it does not, please call the Village Vets Flag Man in the Village, Tom Brennan, 760-842-1470, and he will be happy to sell you a new one that will last for a very long time. (He also has brackets, non-furl poles and someone to install it all for a small fee.) If you see that your neighbor’s flag is tattered, torn and/or worn, you might suggest tak-ing it down for them if they are unable to do so. Flags also make a wonderful ‘Welcome’ gift for a new neighbor! We have Memorial Day, Armed Forces Day and Flag Day com-ing soon. It is so wonderful to drive through the village and see so many of our nation’s emblem flying! n

The flag should not be displayed on days when the weather is inclement, with the exception of an all-weather (nylon or other non-absorbent material) flag. Most flags are now made of all-weather materials. The flag code states that the flag should never touch anything beneath it, including the ground.

The Flag Code states it is the universal custom to display the flag only from sunrise to sunset on buildings and on sta-tionary flag staffs in the open. However, when a patriotic ef-fect is desired, the flag may be displayed 24 hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness. “Prop-er illumination” is a light specifically placed to illuminate the flag (preferred) or having a light source sufficient to illu-minate the flag so it is recognizable as such by the casual ob-server. To meet this requirement, try solar lights that charge throughout the day and shine bright at night, or a garden spotlight set on a timer. Today, Wal-Mart, Lowe’s and Home Depot all sell solar spot lights at a reasonable cost that do a fair job of lighting the flag.

When a flag is faded, torn, and just plain worn out, (in

Residents are invited to meet the nurse after the talk. The meeting will be held in Abravanel Hall, Thursday, May 28 at 3 p.m. Refreshments will be served. n


Jacaranda TreeSeveral magnificent Jacaranda trees are located along the

street by the front gate entrance. Each year these trees blos-som into an explosion of blue/purple blossoms that will last through most of the spring season.

Jacarandas can be found in most tropical and subtrop-ical areas in the world, with the southwestern parts of the United States notably in Arizona and Southern California. In many places in Australia such as Grafton in New South Wales and Perth, there are festivals and street fairs celebrat-ing the blooming of Jacaranda trees.

While these trees have little commercial value other than providing a large canopy during summer months, the wood in Brazil is used for the body of acoustic guitars. In China, the leaves are used to make a distinctive purple dye.

So enjoy the blooms while they last. Look for the blos-soms that shed later in the year forming a beautiful carpet of color below. n

Hummingbird Nest in My YardBy Joan Comito

An Anna’s Hummingbird recently made a nest in a palm alongside the kitchen. I was able to photograph them when the mother was away. The eggs were laid two days apart. The female in-cubated the eggs for about 19 days, but she was away from the nest more than time sitting on the eggs. She began feeding the young the first day out by pumping food down into their stomachs, a vi-olent looking action. On the thirteen day, unlucky for them, I came back to find the nest empty with the nest and palm fronds in disarray. Did a crow or some other critter find them?
