LOCAL DENTIST MICHAEL TESSIER REVEALS WAYS SECRET TO SAVING YOUR TEETHEach one of your teeth is anchored in a socket in the bone. Each tooth is suspended or anchored in its own socket by ligaments. The gum tissue

attaches to the tooth at the top of the socket. If one gets food or plaque stuck between or around the teeth, the gums can become sore and inflamed, bleeding by just the touch of a toothbrush. Just like getting a sliver stuck underneath a fingernail. This inflammation can cause that attachment of the gums to the tooth to deteriorate. This deterioration starts at the gum-line, in the form of a pocket. As that pocket deepens, it will extend into and erode the bone. Eventually, the boney support for the tooth will be gone, and the tooth will fall out. When we dentists or dental hygienists discover this condition, we can perform what is called a laser-assisted new attachment procedure (LANAP) to reattach gums to the tooth. This laser kills the bacteria that exists in the bone, allowing the bone to regenerate. It also creates access for the hygienist to deep clean those pockets, scraping the calculus off the sides of the tooth way below the gum-line. Sometimes we place an antibiotic deep into that pocket, furthering eradication of bacteria. The procedure allows the gum tissue to reattach to the tooth.Before the development of our new laser, the periodontal treatment was pain-ful or uncomfortable, involving scalpels, scraping the gums off the underlying . Our new laser technique is much less invasive, and your recovery is now almost totally painless (hard-to-believe, but true). While many of my patients call me the pain-free dentist, I’m happy to be of help in helping you to save your precious teeth and at the same time making your dental experience a comfortable one.Dr. Michael Tessier is located in Los Flores Plaza at 28562 Oso Parkway.

“And I’m proud to be an American,where at least I know I’m free.

And I won’t forget the men who died,who gave that right to me.

~Lee Greenwood

Like many Ameri-can holidays, Me-morial Day is often jus t ano ther day off for workers and thei r fami l ies. To add meaning to the holiday, its helpful to learn about i ts h i s to ry and cus -toms.

Stor ies abound on the or ig ins of Memorial Day, but a f e w a r e m o r e popular and cred-ible. Records indi-cate that after the Civil War, groups of women in both the Nor th and South visited gravesites, adorning soldier ’s graves with f lowers. Whatever stories are true, the main focus is always the same, to honor those lost in service to our country.

The first official Memorial Day was held on May 30, 1868, or-ganized by General John Logan. (The date was chosen because it was not an anniversary date of a battle.) To honor the fallen soldiers of the Civil War, flow-ers were placed on Union and Confederate graves in Arlington Nat ional Cemetery. New York was the first state to off icial ly recognize the holiday in 1873.

In 1971, Congress enacted the National Hol iday Act, and the observance of Memorial Day was changed from May 30 to the last Monday in May of each year. Many credit this change of date to the decline of this day of remem-

brance, as people focused on the three day weekend instead of the original meaning of the holiday.

In 1915, Moina Michael penned a poem ( “We Shal l Keep the Faith”) honoring the fallen sol-diers remembered on Memorial Day:

And now the Torch and Poppy red

We wear in honour of our dead.Fear not that ye have died for

naught;We’ll teach the lesson that ye

wroughtIn Flanders Fields.She is credited with the idea

of wearing poppies on Memo-rial Day, a tradition we see even today as veterans sell miniature poppy flowers across the country.

Congress passed a resolution in 2000 to help Americans re-member the true meaning of the

holiday. This “National Moment of Remembrance” urges Ameri-cans at 3:00pm (their local time) on Memorial Day to remember those who have lost their lives in military service to their country.

To d a y, m a n y c o m m u n i t i e s celebrate the observance of this holiday by organization parades and o f f i c ia l ce remon ies tha t honor those that have fa l len. Americans also honor soldiers by visiting cemeteries and national monuments and other memorials by placing flowers and flags on graves. Others honor the fallen by flying their flags half-staff until noon on Memorial Day.

Not just a long three day week-end, Memorial Day is a time to remember those who have died in our country’s military service.

Camping in national forests can be a year-round endeavor, but for many people Memorial Day weekend is the deadline to air out the tents, dust off the hiking boots and load up on the makings for s ‘mores.

Kids are out of school, or nearly so, and the days are warmer and longer. It is a perfect time to start reintroducing yourself to the fun and excitement and the calm and peacefulness national forests and grasslands have to offer.

Most of the recreation sites on the San Bernardino National Forest will be open for forest visitors by Memorial Day weekend. “The forest is ready for the 2012 summer recreation season,” said Forest Supervisor Jody Noiron. “We encourage people to enjoy the outdoors while camping, hiking, mountain biking, fishing or a variety of other recreational activities on our forest.”

As always, forest officials encourage visitors to be aware of their surround-ings and responsibilities when visiting the forest. “We want to ensure that everyone has a safe and enjoyable visit while always remaining aware of the current situation outdoors and the potential for wildfire and wildlife, and call ahead to check the status of places you plan to visit” said Supervisor Noiron.

“Know Before You Go”CampfiresCampfires are only permitted at

developed sites in the designated fire rings in campgrounds, picnic grounds and Yellow Post Sites. Outside of devel-oped sites, only propane or gas cooking stoves are permitted. Always call ahead to check on the current fire restrictions.

CampgroundsCampgrounds are popular for three-

day weekend getaways, so reserving early is sometimes key, so you need to plan. Campground reservations can be made online through Reserve USA at:www.recreation.gov or by calling toll free 1-877-444-6777.

Recreation Use FeesThe Forest Adventure Pass must be

displayed on a visitor’s parked vehicle when recreating in Standard Amenity Fee Areas and certain developed sites like campgrounds and picnic areas. An on-line source of designated fee sites, areas and fee information is available on our new Forest Adventure Pass website at: www.fs.usda.gov/adven-turepass

Off-Highway VehiclesOff-Highway Vehicle (OHV) users

should call ahead to the Ranger Sta-tion to call ahead to confirm their OHV

plans and verify rules and regulations. OHV riding area maps are available on the San Bernardino National Forest website. “Red Sticker” vehicle rid-ing season has closed in the San Bernardino mountains for the sum-mer and will resume on October 1. (San Jacinto mountains “red sticker areas close on May 31).All Visitor Centers will be open on the holiday weekend, including Monday.

The giant cake will be created by French’s Pastry Bakery in Costa Mesa.

they find treasures to buy and all kinds of treats to try. Booths open at 1 p.m. on Friday May 25th and at 10 a.m. May 26th through the 28th.

Returning again to ring up high sales will be Job’s Daughters Bethel 212 offering whipped cream-topped piles of glazed strawberries paired with shortcake or ice cream or both. Their specialty, Strawberry Shortcake Supreme, ev-ery year brings long lines of patient and determined patrons. The Garden Grove Boys and Girls Club will again increase their coffers selling churros, chocolate dipped berries, strawberry baby cupcakes, and this year added crepes. Cheesecake and strawberry smoothies are the specialty of Garden Grove High School Band Boosters. Two Kiwanis Clubs in Garden Grove will have booths. Kiwanis Club of Garden Grove will be selling freshly roasted corn on the cob and Greater Garden Grove Kiwanis Club is offering delicate funnel cakes brimming with sweetened strawberries.

$425,000 at galaUnited Cerebral Palsy of Orange County’s Life Without Limits Gala was a

major success with 370 guests and net proceeds estimated at over $425,000. Held at the Balboa Bay Club, the beautiful black tie gala honored James V. Mazzo, President of Abbott Medical Optics with the Impact Award for his com-munity leadership and ongoing support of families of children with cerebral palsy and other disabilities. Allergan founder and Chairman Emeritus Gavin Herbert was on hand to introduce Mazzo.

A major announcement connected with Mazzo’s vision and support was United Cerebral Palsy of Orange County’s Cortical Vision Impairment Early Intervention Program in affiliation with The Gavin Herbert Eye Institute at UC Irvine scheduled to open in fall 2012.

The gala theme, Through the Eyes of Child, was reflected with children ambassadors welcoming guests and by live performances by children with dis-abilities including the Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra Ensemble Chamber Players.

Honorary co-chairs and former Impact awardees included Julia and George Argyros along with former honoree David Pyott and his wife Julianna. Gala committee co-chairs were Michele Maryott, Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher Partner and Matthew Maletta, Allergan Vice President, Associate General Counsel and Secretary.

Guests were treated to an outstanding dinner that included a salad of an Iceberg Wedge with Maytag Blue Cheese dressing on Heirloom Tomato Carpaccio. The entre was a duet of Roasted Slice of Beef Tenderloin with Cabernet Reduction Sauce Béarnaise and a Macadamia Crusted Mahi-Mahi with a Lemon Grass Ginger sauce - served with Wasabi Whipped potatoes and organic vegetables. Alternating Desserts served were Chocolate Bread Pudding with vanilla bean ice cream with a caramel drizzle and a passion fruit Torte with Basil Mint Syrup.

United Cerebral Palsy’s CEO Cathleen Collins shared her personal story of raising a daughter with disabilities and expressed her appreciation of the many healthcare professionals in attendance.

During the Cash for Kids Without Limits, United Cerebral Palsy supporter Bonner Paddock – who has cerebral palsy - announced a $100,000 matching gift through his OM Foundation.

Top auction items included a night at the Grammy Awards that generated $10,000, two Angels dugout suites were sold at $11,000 each and two dinner parties for 12 with Sapphire Grill Chef Azmin Ghahreman each brought in $5500.

United Cerebral Palsy of Orange County provides vital services that support families of children with dis-abilities to improve individual well-be-ing from birth through early adulthood. For more than a half a century, United Cerebral Palsy has helped children with a wide range of disabilities to lead a Life Without Limits and achieve their full potential and inclusion into society at all levels.

2012

By Patti WintersThe United States has a rich history, and

Memorial Day is one of the holidays originated to show our respect for those who have died for it and the many freedoms we enjoy on a daily basis. Memorial Day (originally called Decora-tion Day) was officially proclaimed in 1868 by General John Logan, and first observed on May 30, 1868 by placing flowers on graves of Civil War soldiers at Arlington National Cem-etery. Since 1971, Memorial Day has been celebrated on the last Monday of May, to allow for a three day Memorial Day Weekend.

Discuss American history with your family. We get so busy with our day to day lives that we often forget to slow down and really think about the reason our national holidays were started. It is important to discuss the pride we have in our country and how we appreciate those that came before us, especially with our children.

Buy a poppy from the VFW. Beginning in 1922 the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) took a Dutch and French tradition and began to sell poppies nationally, to raise money for veterans in need. Today these poppies are made my disabled veterans and sold each Memorial Day Weekend.

Participate in the “National Moment of Remem-brance”, which was started in 2000. This is a resolution asks American citizens to stop anything they may be doing at 3 p.m. local time, and observe a moment of silence.

Show respect for fallen war veterans. Visit cem-eteries or war memorials to show your respect. Lay flowers or place flags as a remembrance to what the war veteran has given for his or her country. Many cemeteries have fallen war veterans whose family no longer lives close by. You can “adopt” these grave sites to show that their service has not been forgotten.

Spend quality time with your family and enjoy (and appreciate) the freedom that others have given their lives for. Most cities will have parades and other celebrations. If there isn’t a formal activity that you’re interested in, think of having a picnic or get together with family and friends.

By Derrick RichesIt’s called the unofficial start of summer

and this Memorial Day gives you the op-portunity to break out the grill or smoker to start the summer right. These recipes were the most popular for Memorial Day last year and they are a great start to your summer barbecue season.

Kansas City Rib RubIn Kansas City they know BBQ ribs.

This is the barbecue rub recipe for tradi-tional Kansas City-Style Ribs. Finish these ribs off with a good barbecue sauce and you’ll have a fantastic meal.

Prep Time: 10 minutesTotal Time: 10 minutesYield: Makes a little more than 1 cupIngredients: 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/4 cup paprika 1 tablespoon black pepper 1 tablespoon salt 1 tablespoon chili powder 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon onion powder 1 teaspoon cayenne Preparation:Combine all ingredients together and

transfer to an air tight container. Maybe stored up to six months.

Fresh Corn on the CobThis is the general method for grilling

corn on the cob. Remember not to remove the husks, they will hold in the moisture and keep the corn from burning. You might want to pull out as much silk as you can before hand

Prep Time: 30 minutesCook Time: 15 minutesTotal Time: 45 minutesIngredients: corn on the cob, husks intact

butter herbsPreparation:DO NOT REMOVE HUSKS. Do re-

move the silk. Soak in water for at least 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from water and pull down husks carefully -- DO NOT REMOVE -- and coat with herbal butter (made from adding your favorite fresh herbs to softened butter). Put the husks back up covering the corn and tie with a thin piece of husk at the top. Place on grill for about 15 minutes, turning.

BBQ Beef RibsThis is an easy way to prepare deli-

cious, sticky beef ribs on your grill. Re-member that the secret to indirect grilling is to make sure that the food doesn’t get any direct heat at all. You will need to rotate the ribs occasionally to evenly cook them.

Prep Time: 20 minutesCook Time: 3 hours, 30 minutesTotal Time: 3 hours, 50 minutesYield: Serves 4Ingredients: 4 to 5 pounds beef back ribs (about

10 ribs) 1/2 cup ketchup 1/2 cup honey 1 4 ounce can green chilies, diced 1 large onion, chopped 4 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon cayenne 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon dry mustard Preparation:Trim excess fat from beef ribs. Combine

salt, pepper and cayenne. Rub over the ribs. Preheat grill and prepare for indirect grilling with a drip pan. Place ribs on grill over drip pan and close the lid. Cook for about 3 to 3 1/2 hours over a medium low, indirect heat (try to keep the temperature under 265 degrees F.).

To prepare sauce combine onion, honey, ketchup, chili peppers, garlic and mustard in a sauce pan. Heat over a low temperature, stirring until even and warm. When the ribs are nearly finished begin brushing the sauce on them until you get a thick coating.

Big Daddy’s Carolina Style Barbecue Sauce

Big Daddy says, “This is Carolina style barbecue sauce.” This means that it is vinegar and mustard based, as opposed to the ketchup and molasses based sauces of the mid and southwest. The combination of sweet and tangy flavors brings out the absolute best in grilled or smoked pork or chicken.

Prep Time: 10 minutesCook Time: 30 minutesTotal Time: 40 minutesYield: Makes about 2 1/4 cupsIngredients: 1 cup prepared yellow mustard 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup light brown sugar 3/4 cup cider vinegar 1/4 cup water 2 tablespoons chili powder 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon white pepper 1/4 teaspoon cayenne 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce 2 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon liquid smoke (hickory

flavoring)Preparation:Mix all except soy, butter and smoke.

Simmer 30 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients and simmer for 10 more minutes.

Grilled Sweet PotatoesIt doesn’t take a lot to make delicious

sweet potatoes. These grilled sweet po-tato slices get a quick blanch in hot water and then hit the grill to cook up hot and fast. Best part is that most of the prepara-tion can be done in advance.

Prep Time: 15 minutesCook Time: 10 minutesTotal Time: 25 minutesYield: Serves 4 to 6Ingredients: 4 medium sweet potatoes 1/2 cup melted butter 3 tablespoons brown sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Preparation:Cup sweet potatoes into 3/4 inch slices.

Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and add potatoes. Boil until potatoes are just start-ing to soften. Cool and peal. Combine butter, brown sugar and cinnamon, brush over potatoes. Place Potato slices on pre-heated grill over a medium low heat and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, turning

once. When the sweet potatoes as soft through the middle and browned on the surface they are ready.

A Carolina BBQ RubChuck Ozburn sent me this fantastic,

classic-style Carolina barbecue rub recipe. Try this rub next time you want to make a traditional Carolina Pulled Pork.

Prep Time: 10 minutesTotal Time: 10 minutesYield: Makes about 1 cupIngredients: 2 tablespoons salt 2 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons brown sugar 2 tablespoons ground cumin 2 tablespoons chili powder 2 tablespoons freshly ground black

pepper 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper 1/4 cup paprika Preparation:Combine all ingredients in a small bowl

and mix well; use as a dry rub on beef, chicken, lamb or pork.

Grilled Tri-Tip RoastThis simple beef tri-tip roast is perfect

for many uses. Grill it up, low and slow, and serve it as it is, or cut it up for fajitas, tacos, enchiladas or anything else that calls for a flavorful meat.

Prep Time: 15 minutesCook Time: 1 hourTotal Time: 1 hour, 15 minutesYield: Serves 4Ingredients: 2 pounds tri-tip roast 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 teaspoon salt Preparation:Lightly oil the cooking grate on your

grill. Preheat grill and prepare for indirect grilling. Combine garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and salt. Rub it over the surface of the tri-tip roast. Place tri-tip on grill, fat side up. You can place a drip pan under it to catch the drips which will make a great gravy later. With the grill on low cook for about 1 hours or until it reaches your desires doneness.

When your primary care physician tells you that you need to see a specialist, most patients assume their doc-tor will refer them to a quality physician. After all, any-one who is going to treat you should be board-certifi ed, well versed in the latest techniques and have an impres-sive record of successes with other patients; right? Well it may come as a surprise that the referral system doesn’t actually work that way. Most people assume their primary care doctor has a rolodex of top notch spe-cialists to pass along as needed. In today’s fast paced world, primary care physicians simply don’t have the time to go out, research and meet with other specialists.With specialists operating margins falling over the past decade and health care reforms putting pressure on their bottom line, quality specialists have a need to do a better job educating referring doctors and patients about their expertise. That’s where 2 local residents, Gary Calvaneso and Sandra McElwee who met through Saddleback Church, decided there was an opportunity to work with quality specialists and educate referring primary care physi-cians about their skills. In early 2011, they formed a re-ferral marketing company called The Referral Special-ists (www.TheReferralSpecialists.com).

The Referral Specialists provide practice representatives and referral marketing services to specialty physicians. Practice representatives are experienced healthcare professionals who call on primary care physicians and complementary specialists to educate them about their specialist client’s expertise. Since starting their business, their specialty physician clients have experienced positive gains as a direct re-sult of their services. Typically these specialists triple or quadruple the number of referring physicians who refer to them and increase their bottom line. In fact, the Refer-ral Specialists business caught the attention of the Wall Street Journal’s Smart Money magazine where they were mentioned by name.“Our business connects quality specialists with PCP’s (Primary Care Physicians) through referral marketing, said Gary Calvaneso, Managing Partner. Educating the medical community not only benefi ts everyone in the medical market but also produces jobs which is some-thing that our community really needs”.Aside from achieving positive results for their clients, what makes The Referral Specialists unique is their ded-ication to helping those that are unemployed and need help. For Calvaneso, it is something he takes to heart.

Gary Calvaneso, Mary Baker, Sandra McElwee, Miriam Kang, Linda Matulis

Nearly every Monday for the past 6 years, Calvaneso has been a volunteer at Saddleback Church in Lake For-est, listening to and coaching unemployed people with a smile and an offer of hope. “For our practice reps, we only consider candidates that are unemployed” said Calvaneso. “We are not interested in recruiting people that already have a job and an in-come. We prefer to support those that do not. It is our way of giving back to the community by helping those in need which is a principle of our faith.”“You would be surprised at the high level of unemployed talent there is out there” said Sandra McElwee, Manag-ing Partner. “One of our practice reps is a senior woman with over 25 years of pharmaceutical sales experience calling on physicians’ offi ces. She was out of work for over 2 years before joining up with us and has done a great job for our clients”.Not only do the Referral Specialists focus on work-ing with unemployed candidates, but they also do the same for suppliers. “We wanted to apply our faith based principles of helping those in need to all aspects of our business, said Calvaneso”. “Even the caterer we use is trying to generate income through a home based busi-ness. What employers need to understand is that being unemployed has nothing to do with talent or quality. We carefully screen our suppliers, looking for skill and qual-ity fi rst. The doctors all rave about her food and she now gets additional business from them”. “We have a stay-at-home mom who makes some of the best toffee you’ll ever taste, right out of her home kitch-en. Here again, our clients rave about her toffee and have provided her additional business” said Calvaneso.For his volunteerism in supporting people in transition in 2011, Calvaneso received the Orange County Spirit of Volunteerism Award as part of the leadership team managing Saddlebacks Career Coaching and Counseling program. If you are a physician with a specialty medical practice and are interested in a free consultation to learn more about how The Referral Specialists can help increase re-ferrals from other physicians, visit their website at www.TheReferralSpecialists.com , call them 949-433-1702 or e-mail them at [email protected].

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PRO-CEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postpone-ments be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-11-482279-RM . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further re-course against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney.
