Editor’s note: This is the third install-ment in a series throughout the month ofNovember highlighting veterans’ experi-ences.

“Freedom is not free,” said Jess Ville-gas, a Korean War veteran, referringto a motto he and his fellow soldiersrepeated during the war.

Villegas, 79, grew up in a citrus-growing, Mexican-American commu-nity outside of Riverside where heworked in the orange fields after finish-ing ninth grade.

“Most of us — about 70 percent ofus — went into the service,” he said.“We didn’t say, ‘Hell no, we won’t go.’We went to serve our country because

our country needed it.”In April 1950, he joined the Cali-

fornia Army National Guard. BySeptember, when Villegas was just 18years old, the entire division from SanDiego to Santa Maria was activated forduty.

He recalled the harsh, wintry condi-tions of Korea when he was stationedthere in 1951. He and his fellow sol-diers, he said, got each other throughthe difficult elements.

“Because you live with death everyday, you never know when your timewas up being an infantryman,” hesaid. “We all were a band of brothers.Anybody would give you the last scoopof his C-ration if you asked for it.”

As a California-bred soldier, Ville-gas was shocked by the biting cold,

which still affects some of the nervesin his fingers and legs today.

“If you’re from New York, youunderstand what snow is, but some ofthe guys from back East used to laughat me because a lot of the guys camefrom New England, the Midwest andthe Pacific Northwest, so they wereused to it,” he said, adding that atabout 130 pounds, he was quite thin— but still had to wear 40 pounds ofclothing in addition to carrying hisrifle and ammunition around hiswaist.

Then there was the enemy to con-tend with.

“Anyone who tells you he wasn’tscared is not telling you the truth,” hesaid. “I was frightened.”

Villegas said the nature of the con-

• La Jolla resident W.Major Chance pio-neered the ActivCareresidential-care com-munity, a residencedesigned and builtexclusively for individu-als experiencing mem-ory loss.

Operated by Health Care Group, ofwhich Chance is the founder and CEO,ActivCare opened at Bressi Ranch inCarlsbad on Nov. 8. The residential carecommunity will do more than meet theneeds of those with memory loss; it willalso offer a new life to affected individu-als.

Chance has been developing pro-grams for individuals with memory lossfor more than 25 years. He was instru-mental in changing legislation for carefacilities to meet the needs of those withAlzheimer’s and related dementia, andhe founded ActivCare residential mem-ory care, which has served more than4,000 residents since its inception in1988.

His vision for memory care came tolight when years ago he toured one ofhis skilled nursing-care communities.He was uncomfortable seeing patientswith Alzheimer’s and dementia physi-cally or chemically restrained due totheir tendency to wander. Existing nurs-ing home regulation did not allow forspecial treatment of these individuals.In his view, this was an unacceptableway for a person to spend his or her life.The ActivCare proprietary memory careprogram was founded to address theissue.

Since founding ActivCare, Chancehas seen remarkable results. Residentswho had previously been restrained orheavily sedated at other facilities becameengaged in ActivCare’s structured pro-grams. They became more social, inter-acting with each other and staff, andfound freedom to explore new areas in asecure setting that promoted indepen-dence. The activity program has beenable to restore feelings of usefulness,socialization and the capacity to cele-brate life, which is critical to the diseasethat has no cure.

Chance’s newest endeavor, ActivCareat Bressi Ranch now offers accommoda-tions for up to 80 individuals sufferingfrom memory loss, from mild cognitiveimpairment to late stages of memoryloss resulting from Alzheimer’s diseaseor related dementia.

“This is the next generation of mem-ory-care communities. Every part of thisbuilding is purposefully built for individ-uals experiencing memory loss,”Chance said. “ActivCare at Bressi Ranchwill do more than just meet the needs ofthose with memory loss; it will also offera new life to affected individuals, givingthem purpose and enhancing self-esteem, and providing peace of mind fortheir families.”

• Dr. Ellen Beck,clinical professor ofmedicine in the UCSan Diego School ofMedicine’s Depart-ment of Family andPreventive Medicine,has been named a2011 Health Hero by

WebMD Magazine. Each year, the maga-zine “celebrates visionary Americanswho have overcome daunting healthchallenges to give back to others in truly

inspiring ways.” The Health Heroes areannounced in the November/Decemberissue.

In 1996, Beck saw thousands of SanDiegans unable to access quality healthcare due to lack of health insurance. Inpartnership with a group of medical stu-dents and community partners, Beckcreated an opportunity to serve thesecommunities by developing a newmodel of care. By January 1997, thefirst not-for-profit UCSD Student RunFree Clinic Project (SRFCP) opened inthe basement of the Pacific Beach Unit-ed Methodist Church. Recognizednationally for its ability to provide no-cost health care, SRFCP provides “acces-sible, quality healthcare for the under-served” with a belief that the careshould be delivered in a humane andempowering manner.

“It is an honor to receive this award,especially in these financially challeng-ing times for our free-clinic pro-ject. Programs such as ours are neces-sary, both to begin to address theenormous gaps and tattered holes in thesafety net, and to train and inspire thenext generation of healthcare leaders towork with underserved communities,”said Beck. “This award honors the enor-mous commitment of our many volun-teers, clinicians, students, and commu-nity partners.”

SRFCP is staffed by medical studentsfrom the UCSD School of Medicineunder the full supervision of faculty andlicensed health care professionals. Stu-dents and faculty from the fields ofmedicine, pharmacy, dentistry, socialwork, law, nursing and acupuncturecome together to participate in thistransdisciplinary model.

In its first 10 years of operation, theclinic provided care for more than 7,500underserved patients, with more than

25,000 visits. Currently, the SRFCPmaintains four clinical sites in San Diegoin partnership with two churches andtwo inner-city elementary schools andcontinues to serve upward of 2,000patients a year.

Each Health Hero is awarded $2,500by WebMD, which is donated on theirbehalf to a charity of their choosing.Beck will be donating her award win-nings to the SRFCP.

Shipley was diagnosed on Cinco deMayo in 2010 — a day she would other-wise have been celebrating with her hus-band at their favorite Mexican restau-rant.

“Sadly, it is a club that you join not bychoice,” she said of the support group ofbreast cancer survivors in the communi-ty. “You really do start bonding with oth-ers. There are so many people who areaffected by it. The statistic is one in eightwomen.”

Another bartender’s wife also becamepart of that club just six months afterShipley, revealing the prevalence of thedisease in an instant.

“We really have become close becausewe were going through the same thing,”Shipley said. “I hate the fact that I got it,but it has made me stronger person.”

Shipley has been cancer-free for a year.She advised those who are battling thecancer to “stay strong.”

“You’ll make it through. The treat-ments are getting better and the doctorsare getting better,” she said. “It’s soimportant to catch it and get rid of itearly. [People] need to get mammo-grams.”

Recreational parks in San Diego giveresidents an opportunity to exercisetheir pets and themselves. The parksare also a nourishing home to localwildlife.

Sometimes the presence of thiswildlife — at least the ones classified asnuisances — means city interventionusing various methods of populationcontrol that frequently pit animalactivists and enthusiasts against thosewho simply want the problem takencare of.

A prominent example of this dilem-ma is that involving a furry, reclusivecreature that takes up residence insome of the city’s grassy havens — thepocket gopher.

Known for building complex under-ground tunnel systems, the massivedigging work is done by only onegopher per labyrinth. Experts saygophers are solitary and do not likecompany. A single gopher can beresponsible for hundreds of dirtmounds and is frequently blamed fordestroying parks and gardens, killingtrees, plants and shrubbery. Their veg-etarian diet consists only of roots fromtrees, shrubs and grass, as well as flow-ers and other plants.

The furry critters’ destructive eatingbehavior often leads to being catego-rized as rodents or pests.

Gophers are easily identified by theirlong front teeth, small ears and eyesand very short tails. They usually don'tgrow longer than 10 inches in length.

Oversize front legs and teeth are used

to push dirt through the tunnels ontothe grass above, frequently causingholes and hazards that can seriouslyinjure an animal or jogger.

Parks like Dusty Rhodes, Robb Field,Cleater Park and Dog Beach Park inOcean Beach all demonstrate signs ofgopher intrusion and damage.

Gopher enthusiasts like to empha-size the animals’ positive influence onthe local ecosystem. The burrowinghelps aerate the soil and helps speed upthe formation of new, richer soil bybringing minerals to the surface andmixing plant materials and fecal wasteinto it — leading to better plantgrowth.

Not everyone, however, is a gopherfan and not everyone appreciates theend result of the gopher burrowing anddestruction that results.

To prevent the local parks from beingdestroyed, trees and plants are oftenprotected by screen fencing and under-ground netting, bare ground or barri-ers of six inches of coarse gravel, saidgardening enthusiast Jay Kurcaba.

“The trick is,” Kurcaba said, “to plantannual grains rather than seasonalplants. Their roots don't provideenough food or nutrients to the hungrygopher.”

Normally, gopher overpopulation ismitigated by natural predators like coy-otes, weasels, large snakes and owls.

Only one of these four hunters is aregular near the affected parks inOcean Beach, however — the whitebarn owl.

David Radin loves hearing six smallwords from his patients — “I finallyhave my life back.”

Although Radin should be used tothe phrase by now, he never tires ofhearing that he has helped a patient livea happier, pain-free life.

“I chose to be a chiropractor becauseI believe in a homeopathic approach tohealing,” he said. “When possible, I pre-fer to achieve good health without theneed for drugs or surgery. I can’t imag-ine a profession with a higher level ofjob satisfaction.”

The satisfaction Radin gets from hisjob may stem from the endless numberof praises he receives from customersfor his personalized dedication to allevi-

ating their pains — often ones hispatients have carried for years.

“My philosophy toward patient careis based upon individualized, high-qual-ity care,” he said. “My office has onetreatment room, and I perform allpatient treatments personally. The indi-vidualized style of health care fits wellwith the concept of personalized ser-vice in La Jolla.”

As a sports-injury specialist, he uti-lizes a biomechanical and muscu-loskeletal approach to the human body,adjusting the spine for back and neckpain and adjusting extremities to treatinjuries of the shoulder, elbow, wrist,hip, knee and ankle.

Radin Chiropractic also makes cus-tom-molded foot orthotics to helpreduce foot, ankle, knee and lower back

pain and increase the body’s biome-chanical efficiency for running, cyclingand other activities.

In addition to healing specific bur-dening pains, Radin also focuses on hispatients’ total wellness before they leavehis office.

“I believe in a holistic approach tomedicine,” he said. “I am concernedabout my patients’ habits — exerciseand diet — and want to help themachieve a healthy lifestyle.”

He even updates his website withhealthy living tips including choosingthe right sleeping position, improvingposture and timing a meal prior to play-ing a sport or exercising.

Radin relocated his successful three-year practice from Altlanta to the ElPatio Shops on Ivanhoe Avenue in

September so his wife could further hergraduate school studies in public healthat UCSD.

He said he chose La Jolla because ofits strong sense of community, thebeauty of the area and the potential forhealthy living.

“It encourages a very active lifestyledue to the wonderful weather year-

round,” he said. “I loved the village feeland was excited to walk everywhere. Iwalk to work, the gym, grocery store,restaurants and the beach.”

The La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) willlaunch a new “win-win” program for localresidents and businesses.

A “Shop Local, Shop La Jolla” discountcard will be offered to every LJTC memberfor special discounts and deals at partici-pating local retailers, restaurateurs andservice businesses.

“The idea behind it is about keepingbusiness local,” said LJTC trustee GregPhillips. “We’re thoroughly excited aboutit. We think it’s going to be a success forlocal businesses as well as residents.”

Residents can simply show their LJTCmembership card to participating busi-

nesses to reap the benefits of specials atplaces like Vigilucci’s, Meanley & Son AceHardware, Mr. Taco, PC Help Desk, BurnsDrugs, Latte By the Sea, DW Printworksand LJ Lock and Key.

“The beauty of it is that people oftenhave to carry different coupons or cards fordifferent discounts, but if you just had oneLa Jolla card that you can use at differentbusinesses, it might actually be worth car-rying in your wallet or purse,” said JohnWeinstein, LJTC’s second vice president.

There are no extra fees involved in theprogram for businesses or residents thatare already members. Anyone who is not

yet a member and wishes to take advan-tage of the card’s discounts can become aTown Council member for $50 per yearor $100 for business members.

The money put into becoming a mem-ber is well worth it for the potential savingsof the discount card.

If that’s not enough, members can alsotake advantage of current LJTC member-ship benefits, including discounts to Sun-Setter happy hours, voting privileges intrustee elections, referral service for busi-ness members and free publicity for busi-nesses with an announcement of mem-bership and introduction at a LJTC

meeting.“The potential is huge with over 500

business and resident members in LaJolla,” Phillips said. “Our hope is that bygiving people an incentive — i.e. a discount— that could be enough to stay local.”

He said the idea of the discount pro-gram is to urge residents to visit new placesin La Jolla that they might have heardabout, but never tried — in turn, gettingbusinesses new customers.

“It’s really a win-win for everybody,there’s really no downside,” Weinsteinsaid. “We’re hoping that everyone in LaJolla wants to be part of the Town Council

because we are an advisory group that justwants to improve the quality of life in LaJolla for businesses and residents.”

The program is slated to launch in lateNovember.

Discounts for members will be postedon the LJTC website, www.lajollatown-council.org, and participating businesseswill have a LJTC sticker posted at their shopor restaurant.

To become a member, visit www.lajol-latowncouncil.org or call (858) 454-1444. For businesses that want to becomea member and provide a discount, emailValerie Strocco at [email protected].

• La Jolla’s new county representa-tive, Supervisor Ron Roberts, intro-duced himself at the LJTC meetingand answered questions from thepublic and trustees regarding hisposition on county issues affectingLa Jollans.

He emphasized transportation, airquality and health issues as key spe-cialties of his administration.

“I’m an architect by profession soI like to build things, and at the coun-ty now, we have more constructiongoing on than any other local gov-ernmental agency, certainly in SanDiego County and maybe in thestate,” he said. “If you look at every-thing that’s under construction orabout to begin, its well over half abillion dollars in construction, andit’s county dollars. We’re able to dothis within our own budget.”

He highlighted several of thecounty’s upcoming projects, includ-ing a light-rail line servicing UCSDand UTC shopping center, a women’sjail in Santee slated to begin con-struction early next year and awaterfront park from Ash to Grapestreets downtown.

“We want positive outcomes andwe work for positive change, and Iwill put that record up against any-one, anywhere,” he said.

Some of those measurable out-comes from past initiatives include adecrease in child obesity in San Diegofrom a larger “Live Well San Diego”initiative, and improvement in airquality despite a larger populationand greater number of cars on theroad.

“In San Diego the air quality is bet-ter than it’s ever been since we start-ed measuring the air quality in the1950s,” he said attributing thechange to the quality of automo-biles, the way Californians do busi-ness and restrictions that protect airquality.

“California has led the world indealing with air pollution. Nobody— no state, no province, no countryanywhere — has done what Califor-nia has done and I feel good aboutthat,” he said.

Despite his successes, he said thereis more to be done. He emphasizedthinking outside the box to assurethe county can provide the best qual-

ity services in the most efficient andeffective way possible.

“I believe passionately in the stuffwe are doing,” he said. “This is notthe end. This is the beginning.”

Unleashed pet parentsin the dog house

• Parker also announced theoccurrence of unleashed dogs atCalumet Park is on the rise onceagain and causing a public safetyconcern for visitors of the park.

“I’m a dog owner, a dog lover andone of those that used to take my dogto that park unleashed all the time,”he said. “Unfortunately over theyears, the incidences of unleasheddogs have escalated to the point of apublic safety issue. It’s destroying thegrass and it’s creating a problem forthose who want to come down thereand enjoy the park.”

Recently, a pregnant woman wasknocked over by a large dog in thepark, he said. She was not injured.The incident, however, has broughtthe issue of unleashed dogs in thepark to a head.

“Neighbors are coming out indroves and complaining about fight-ing among dogs,” he said. “The situ-ation, quite to my surprise, got a lit-tle bit out of control. Depending onwhat day and time you go downthere, it continues to be that way.”

Parker said at least one person hasbeen cited at the park.

“Unfortunately, in addition to our

continuing public outreach to askpeople to be responsible, the policenow have been engaged because ofthe public safety issues,” he said. “Ihate to be the deliverer of bad newsand I certainly don’t want to rain onanyone’s parade, but we do have torespond to the public safety issue. SoI hope that people will act a littlemore responsibly in the park.”

CIVICreport La Jolla Town Council, Nov. 10BY MARIKO LAMB | VILLAGE NEWS

No, they haven't picked up BalboaPark’s 1,172 acres and moved themto the Peninsula.

But with all the buzz about bypassbridges, two-story parking garages,first-time-ever parking fees and otherpotentially radical changes, folks hereseem keen to keep up on the redevelop-ment proposals being discussed as thevenerable park's centennial in 2015approaches.

And that's why the Peninsula Com-munity Planning Board (PCPB) hascalled on all interested citizens toattend a forum tonight, Nov. 17, at its

regular monthly meeting at 6:30 p.m.at the Hervey/Point Loma BranchLibrary, located at 3701 Voltaire St.

The debate was sparked by a propos-al unveiled in August 2010 by SanDiego Mayor Jerry Sanders and Qual-comm co-founder Irwin Jacobs. Thevision called for the removal of carsfrom the Plaza de Panama, the park’smain square. To divert traffic, a new265-foot-high, 30-foot-wide ramp offthe bridge would sprout off the southside of the Cabrillo Bridge and eventu-ally lead to a new 785-space under-ground structure that would be built in

the existing Organ Pavilion parking lot.Presenting the Jacobs plan will be

David Marshall, president of HeritageArchitecture and Planning; and Gor-don Kovtun, principal of KCM Group.

Bruce Coons, the PCPB's newestmember and executive director of SaveOur Heritage Organisation, will pre-sent the leading alternative backed bySOHO.

Jay Schumaker, an architect andPCPB board member, will also present.More information is available athttp://www.tashumaker.com/Balboa_Park-THE_BRIDGE_ISSUE/The-_Bridge_Issue%3B.html.

The completed projects areone part of a bigger picture to lightup the entire village over the years.

“We’ve already gotten incrediblypositive feedback from the commu-nity about how they look,”Niebling said. “It’s the beginning ofa five-year plan, so where wehaven’t touched parts of the vil-lage, we’re hoping to touch those asthe years progress to really light up

the whole village.” Niebling suggested merchants

take on their own lighting efforts,noting the La Jolla Village Lodge’s“absolutely gorgeous” lightswrapped around palm trees.

Additional phases of the planinclude extending roofline lightingwhere possible, installing hanginglighting and décor that will traversethe street, and projecting imageson the sides of buildings.

derful than when you come into SanFrancisco Bay and you see the GoldenGate,” he said. “We got into San Fran-cisco at about 9 o’clock in the morn-ing and we didn’t get off the ship until9 o’clock at night. There were severalhundred of us on the ship and therewere no bands for us, no cheering, nonothing. We just got off the buses andthey took us to the separating cen-ters.”

He took the Greyhound bus backhome to Riverside, “a beautiful sight”he said, and into the welcoming armsof his family.

“My mother came running out andshe hugged me,” he said. “After I gotrested up after all the hugs and kissesand everything, my mother took meto church, and I had to [walk] on myknees from the street to the altar withher, because she promised we woulddo that.”

Consistent with the motto recitedby Villegas and others in his outfit,many of his friends did not come back.

“That’s the price of freedom,” hesaid.

Villegas continued to work for theU.S. military as a civilian airplanemechanic and technician for 14years. He and his wife raised threechildren, all the while emphasizingthe importance of education — avalue that his father instilled in him ata young age.

“My dad used to tell me, ‘Everythingyou want to know comes out ofbooks,’” he said. “I always put a lot ofemphasis on education. That’s theonly way you’re going to get any-where.”

He said he is grateful his countrygave him so much, particularly theopportunity to expand his knowledgebase through an education.

“When I see these young peopleenjoying life in this country, at one

time I was a little bitter when I cameback because I could not get a jobbecause I didn’t have the necessarymarketable skills,” he said. “But wheredo you get those skills from? You go toschool. My country was good enoughto send me to school and pay me to goto school, so I went half the time toschool and managed to get a vocation-al high school diploma.”

He furthered his education atNational University to become anindustrial engineering tech beforeretiring.

Since Villegas’ wife passed away in1998 and his children have grown up,he travels around California and vol-unteers 12 hours per week at the SanDiego VA Medical Center.

“I wanted to give my country backwhat it gave me. I think I owed it to mycountry to do that. It’s fun. This is oursecond family here,” he said. “I’m gladthat I served my country. I can holdmy head high and know that I belongto an elite group that not everybodycan belong to. I am so glad to be anAmerican, and I’ll never forget that.”

La Jolla-area highschool sports roundup

owls began nesting between the areaof Sunset Cliffs Boulevard and BeaconStreet and between Cape May and DelMonte streets. The owls mainly feedon rats and mice in those areas.

Instead of pesticides or other priceymethods used by the city’s Park andRecreation Department to control thegopher population, some Ocean Beachresidents have suggested relocating afew of the owls to the Cleater Park,Dusty Rhodes/Rhodes Ranch and theDog Park areas.

OB residents like Mary Richards andScott Richard exercise their dogs dailyat Dusty Rhodes Dog Park. The twoshare similar views on the gopherproblem. They both take a “live andlet live” approach.

“Gophers are here for a purpose,”said Richards. “Let nature take itscourse. I definitely do not agree withpoison. It pollutes the ocean.”

Richard agreed.“I wouldn't want my dogs to get sick

from a poisoned gopher or from pesti-cides they come in contact with,” hesaid. “It should be a natural, inexpen-sive solution.”

Richard and Richards said theybelieve relocating the owls would bevery beneficial.

James Whalen of Ocean Beach alsosupports a more natural approach tothe removal of gophers.

“They shouldn't be eradicated, butthey definitely need to be controlled,”Whalen said. “It got out of hand lastyear when the main park [DustyRhodes/Rhodes Ranch] was overrunwith hundreds of gopher holes. Peopleended up injured from stepping intoholes all over the place.”

While Whalen said he doesn't objectto relocating owls to the local parks, hesees other natural solutions alreadytaking place.

“Inside the dog park [the fenced-inarea inside Dusty Rhodes Park], wedon't have a problem,” Whalen said.“It's self-regulating, our dogs take careof it. They dig them up [the gophers].Not a day goes by without the dogscatching a gopher or two.”

Of course, more traditional meth-ods are being applied by the city in lieuof an owl relocation, often becomingthe source of local myth as to howgopher control is actually being done.

Clay Bingham, director of commu-nity parks for the Park and Recreation

Department, said city officials areaware of resident concerns over thegopher-control methods being usedand sought to set the record straight.

“To keep our parks safe for housepets and the public, we apply a verylow-level gopher-control pesticideproduct called ‘Gopher Getter 2’ at allfour [Ocean Beach] parks,” Binghamsaid. “The only difference is in the fre-quency of applications of the product.

“Dog Beach Park, Robb Field andDusty Rhodes get treated with thesame frequency — once every week,”he said. “Cleator Park, on the otherhand, only receives an application ofthe gopher control product once amonth. … To insure the most profes-sional and safest handling of the prod-uct, a professional applicator contrac-tor has been hired by the city of SanDiego to apply the gopher control.”

Bingham said community parksstaff members are available to answerquestions or field concerns over thegopher control, and to collect sugges-tions or ideas about alternate means ofnuisance abatement. Residents maycall (619) 221-8901 — a direct line tostaff members Mondays through Fri-days from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Don’t be scared by thebird: recipes to make anyThanksgiving feast to die for

Dry-brined or “Judy Bird” turkey(Read detailed recipes and FAQ at

www.lat.ms/sO74nK)• 1 turkey, 11 to 16 lbs., fresh or frozen

(turkey absorbs salt as it defrosts), gibletsremoved, rinsed inside and out, patted dry

• Kosher salt • A 2½-gallon sealable plastic bag (avail-

able at supermarket)

Place 1 tablespoon Kosher salt per 5pounds’ turkey weight (e.g., 3 table-

spoons for a 15 lb. turkey) in bowl; pro-rate -- do not oversalt).

Sprinkle salt lightly inside the turkey cavity.Turn it on its back to salt the breasts, usingmost salt on the thickest parts of the meat,the breasts and thighs; salt the turkey all over.Put turkey in the 2½-gallon bag. Squeeze outair and seal.

Refrigerate the bird three days, breast-sideup for two days, breast side down for one day.Massage the salt into the skin daily throughthe bag. Liquids will reabsorb.

Remove turkey from bag, place it on a plat-ter breast side up and let dry in the refrigera-tor for eight hours. Let sit for one hour at roomtemperature before stuffing (if desired) andcooking. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Place turkey, breast-side up, on a rack in asturdy roasting pan (avoid aluminum throw-aways) and put in oven. Reduce temperatureto 325 degrees after 30 minutes and roastuntil an oven thermometer inserted into thethickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees,about 2½ to 3 hours. The turkey will cook

faster in a convectionoven or if using an ovenroasting bag. (Mine cooked oncein 1½ hours in a convection oven.)

Remove bird from oven, tent it with foil andlet rest 30 minutes before carving.

Skim and discard fat from turkey drippingsfor use on stuffing or in gravy.

Nicole’s stuffingStuffing — or dressing — is an art, not a sci-

ence. My ingredients and proportions varyevery time. Be creative and experiment. Besure to taste and correct for flavor. I’ve exper-imented successfully with a brown Basmatirice-based stuffing with vegetables includingzucchini, mushrooms, onions, carrots andgarlic. Another year, I added maraschinocherries to my basic recipe — different anddelicious.

• 1 loaf (1½ lbs.) good quality white bread,stale or dried for 1-2 days, or a combination ofbreads including oat, potato, whole wheat orcorn bread.

• 1 large onion, finely chopped• About ½ lb. mushrooms, thinly sliced• 1-2 cups walnut pieces• 2-4 cloves garlic, crushed• ½ to 1 bunch parsley, finely chopped• ¼ lb butter, melted• Chicken stock (can preferred)• Thyme, rosemary (fresh preferred),

optional• Salt and pepper

Make stuffing theday before use.

Tear bread into small pieces andplace in large bowl. Add onions, garlic, mush-rooms, walnuts, parsley and fresh herbs. Addbutter and/or chicken stock to moisten stuff-ing. Add salt and pepper to taste, going lighton the salt if stuffing inside dry-brined bird.Refrigerate until use. Stuff turkey just beforebaking or bake in a pan, moistened withturkey juices, for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Marita’s Mandarin OrangeSweet Potatoes

• 4-6 large sweet potatoes, baked ormicrowaved, peeled

• 4 tablespoons butter• 6 tablespoons brown sugar, firmly

packed• 3 tablespoons dark rum (Meyers pre-

ferred)• ½ teaspoon salt• 1/3 teaspoon ground pepper• 2 small cans drained mandarin oranges• 6 tablespoons chopped pecans

Mash potatoes with 2 tablespoons but-ter, 4 tablespoons sugar, 3 tablespoons

pecans, rum, salt and pepper. Add 1 can man-darins; mix well. Adjust seasoning. Arrange in1½ to 2 quart casserole. Mix remaining but-ter, sugar and pecans; adjust seasoning.Spread atop potatoes. Arrange remainingmandarins on top. Bake uncovered 375

During two years at cooking school in Paris, one of thefew things I never cooked was a turkey, although itprovided the centerpiece for a memorable inter-

national Thanksgiving feast held at an American stu-dent’s apartment, with the 25-pound bird sourcedfrom the American Embassy commissary.

When I returned home to Virginia, wherewhole turkeys were available year-round, Ibegan experimenting with different methodsof cooking turkeys: under foil; in a brownpaper bag; in an oven cooking bag; undercheesecloth; high initial heat; even heat.I’ve cooked discounted frozen turkeys, but-ter-basted turkeys, fresh turkeys andTrader Joe’s pre-brined turkeys and hadsatisfying results with every method.

Three years ago, I discovered my now-favorite: the super-easy, dry-brined tech-nique LA Times food editor Russ Par-sons calls the “Judy Bird,” after SanFrancisco chef Judy Rodgers’ chicken-cooking approach.

While it requires planning ahead, thisproduces a firm, meaty, moist and flavor-ful bird. The turkey absorbs the salt dur-ing its three-day refrigeration, yet isn’tsalty. It’s fine to stuff your turkey, butreduce the stuffing’s salt. Most important,don’t be intimidated.

Just add your favorite side dishes anddessert and you’re good to go.

Leah (Taylor Shurte) mourns over the loss of herbeloved as she is rapidly possessed by a hauntedspirit, or dybbuk. Photo by Jim Carmody

The UC San Diego department of theater anddance opened “The Dybbuk” on Nov. 10, a won-drous and mystical play, the 1920 premier ofwhich opened in Vilna, Lithuania. Written by S.Ansky and translated by Joachim Neugroschel, theplay tells the story of Leah, a young girl destined towed Khonen, a brilliant young scholar of nomeans. Although he pledged her to Khonen ininfancy, Leah’s father Sender, now a wealthy mer-chant, has other ideas for Leah. When he betrothsLeah to a more suitable (i.e., prosperous) prospec-tive husband, Khonen dies and becomes a wan-dering spirit, or dybbuk in Hebrew, which takespossession of the girl’s body.

The setting is an ancient synagogue around theturn of the 19th century. Director Joshua KahanBrody, a second-year Master of Fine Arts student,works with a fine company of 19, made up of bothMFA actors and other UCSD students, with excel-lent production design also created by MFA stu-dents.

An acknowledged classic of Yiddish theater,“The Dybbuk” concerns Khonen (Jack Mikesell), abrilliant young scholar of the Talmud and Kabbal-ah, who loves Leah (Taylor Shurte), daughter ofthe wealthy merchant Sender (Daniel Rubiano).When Sender announces to the men gathered inthe synagogue library that he has pledged Leah toa wealthy suitor, Khonen falls dead. According tocustom, Leah visits her mother’s grave to ask herto attend the wedding. While there, she is possessedby an unsettled spirit called a dybbuk. It is Khonen,who has entered her body in order to be unitedwith her for all eternity. The changed Leah is takento Rabbi Azriel (Gabriel Lawrence) for an exorcism.The dybbuk refuses to leave and a transcendentunion is arranged through The Messenger (Jen-nifer Putney), a visitor who travels between theworld of the dead and the living.

Brody stages the work sparely, devoutly andintelligently and he is ably supported by the designelements: costumes by Mary Rochon; scenic designby Kathryn Lieber; lighting design by Kristin Hayes;and music and sound design by Blair Robert Nel-son.

“The Dybbuk” continues at 8 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, Nov. 17-19, at the Theodore and AdeleShank Theatre, UC San Diego Theatre District/LaJolla Playhouse, 2901 La Jolla Village Dr., $20 gen-eral; $15 UCSD affiliate and seniors; $10 UCSDstudents with ID; (858) 534-4574, in person atthe door one hour prior to show, or online at

Starry, starry nights

with Vincent Andrunas

Each spring, the Salvation ArmyWomen’s Auxiliary (SAWA) holds anevent to honor ladies who’ve givenexceptional service to the community.Typically, 15 such individuals are hon-ored annually, and the luncheon eventcelebrating their selfless efforts attractsmany hundreds of people eager to rec-ognize these dedicated women.

SAWA calls them Women of Dedica-tion, though the honorees themselvesoften informally shorten the title to“Women of Ded.” No matter; the truthis still the same — every one of thesewomen has spent many years workingfor causes in which she believes, makinglife better for many, many others. Noneof them do it for any sort of personalgain, and most certainly not for person-al recognition. But all of them surelydeserve to be thanked by the rest of usand by bringing their generosity of spir-it to the public’s attention, it’s hopedthat others will be inspired to make theirown efforts toward the betterment ofsociety.

That Women of Dedication luncheonwon’t happen until March 28, butSAWA held a Presentation Tea on asunny November afternoon toannounce the honorees. The congenialRose Camacho and her daughter,Rachel, hosted the event at their beau-tiful Rancho Santa Fe estate. Indoors,guests enjoyed little sandwiches anddecadent sweets accompanied by hottea and cold sparkling cider until every-one moved to the patio where the hon-orees sat surrounded by enthusiasticadmirers. SAWA’s Bonnie Hage intro-duced the 15 (alphabetically, to be mostfair), and read a brief bio hinting at thereasons each was being honored.Details were sparse, as in TV newsteasers, but much more will be revealedat the March luncheon.

Among these esteemed women wereLa Jollans Terry Cooper, Becki Etess,Gladys Kohn and Jane Scher. Also hon-ored were Sharon Considine, SusanKazmarek-Biddick and Muffy Walker ofRancho Santa Fe; Joye Blount, LucyBorsenberger and Rita Solberg of PointLoma; Dede Carlson and Elizabeth Rave-nis of Rancho Bernardo; and JulieSarno, Jan Reital and Rebecca Charles of

Carlsbad, Del Mar and National City,respectively. Wherever they’re from,each deserves our respect and heartfeltapprobation.

***Blending education, community

empowerment and advocacy, San DiegoCoastkeeper protects the region’s inlandand coastal waters for the communitiesand wildlife that depend on them. Thegroup began as San Diego Baykeeper,originally funded by the late FrankWells, president of the Walt DisneyCompany from 1984 until his death ina 1994 helicopter crash. The Wells fam-ily remains deeply involved with theorganization, which has expanded con-siderably over the years. In 2005, SanDiego Baykeeper became San DiegoCoastkeeper, and on Nov. 5 they heldtheir 15th annual Ocean Gala at West-in’s Gaslamp Quarter Hotel.

The event began with cocktails, horsd’oeuvres and a big silent auction.Shortly before dinner, Pacifica Compa-nies received this year’s Coastal Cham-pion Business award (accepted by CEOAshok Israni), and District 8 City Coun-cilman David Alvarez was given theCoastal Champion Community award,both for their work that helps furtherCoastkeeper’s mission.

Ecologically speaking, Coastkeeperstrove to keep their Ocean Gala as sus-tainable as possible. Among the event’seco-elements was a dinner featuringbeef tenderloin and sustainably-sourcedmahi-mahi. Ten “Water Lites” formedan artistic and educational display. Eachconsisted of a large-diameter water sup-ply pipe segment planted with landscap-ing specimens having different moistureneeds and topped by a tall, lighted,translucent column. The lights illustrat-ed the differing watering requirementsof the various species.

The gala also served to introduce tothe community Coastkeeper’s new exec-utive director, Gale Filter. Friendlyenough early in the evening, he seemedsuddenly crabby when he reappearedfor an after-dinner address — wearing abright-red king crab costume. As thestrains of Aretha Franklin’s “Respect”faded, he began to bemoan the future ofcrabs in our oceans, victims of steeplyrising pollution and toxicity. He called forstricter enforcement of water qualityregulations, but lightened up later whenhe lovingly introduced his wife, Kathy,calling her “the crabcake of my life.”

With the help of Bill Menish’s auc-tioneering skills, the event raised morethan $110,000. The 300 guests clear-ly enjoyed the well-planned event,including such details as a beautifullyproduced video illustrating Coastkeep-er’s work and the music of an enthusi-astic band named “The Barnwell Shift.”
