GRANITE BAY VIEW MARCH 3
Life seems to revolvearound real estate. Somuch about our lives
is affected by where welive, how many bed-
rooms we have and howmuch of our paycheck isgoing to the mortgage.How many times haveyou thought, Id be hap-pier if I lived closer towork, or, If I only had anextra bedroom, Id getthat piano Ive alwayswanted.
Its these kind ofdreams that lead us tojump into the market
which can be a scary ideafor buyers and sellersright now. My sister is afirst-time buyer navigat-ing a world of short salesand foreclosures andthe disappointment oflooking at more than 20homes that dont match
her dream. Whether theres a for
sale sign on your lawn or youre contemplating arefi, I hope youll findsome good nuggets ofinformation in thismonths View.
This month we talk to
Granite Bay homeownerDave Hendricks. He andhis wife were consideringselling rather than doinga costly update of theirhome. Instead, Daveinvested a fraction of thecost (and a lot of elbowgrease) into doing the
renovations himself.Check out the before andafter shots starting onpage 4.
For this months Hot
Property we have a stun-ning riverfront home inFair Oaks that exempli-fies location, location,location. The homeoverlooks the AmericanRiver and takes advan-tage of the spectacularviews.
We also take a look atsenior living. With anabundance of optionsand different levels of
care, how do you knowwhich one will be a goodplace for mom and dadto live? See what anexpert says on page 7.

BY TINKA DAVI
GRANITE BAY VIEW
It was either move or redo the kitchen.Thats what Dave Hendricks of Gran-ite Bay realized when his wife, Chris-
tine, wanted to look at homes for sale.I hated the kitchen, she said. Sohusband Dave did what most people wouldnt even think of undertakingthemselves.
He meticulously designed a newkitchen, shopped for materials,removed flooring and cabinets, hiredsubcontractors and did some of thework himself.
And he didnt remodel just that onehot spot. In addition to the kitchen, heredid the living room, den, hall floor
and two bathrooms.Hes heard stories of people spending
$150,000 to remodel the kitchen alone.But Hendricks is proud to say he did
five rooms for around $50,000.Whats unusual is that Hendricks, 70,
doesnt have a background in buildingnor has he ever done this sort of projectbefore. He is a retired math teacher.
However, he minored in art in collegeand is adept with a camera. Several of
his photographs hang in the home. Healso paid attention to his father, a full-time carpenter, Christine Hendrickssaid.
We talked about remodeling thekitchen for years, she said. She dislikedthe kitchen because it was all white white tile counters, white appliances,white walls, white ceiling, white floor.
Dave Hendricks redesigned it withcolor.
Taking a cue from the warm wood intheir kitchen table and the black chairs,
he chose cabinetry in wood tones withdark, decorative trim. The new cabinetsdont have straight lines like the oldones. The cabinet tops are at differentlevels and some upper cabinets haveglass door fronts and glass display
shelves. There are open shelvesbetween the lower cabinets near thekitchen table.
Hendricks design called for adding afoot to the width of the cabinet next tothe refrigerator the former one wastoo narrow.
Cupboard conveniences include wire
shelves that pull-out from deep cornercabinets so that the contents are easilyviewed and reached. They were sur-prised when they cleaned out cabinets.
We found things in the back cornersthat we didnt know we had, Hendrickssaid.
Theres plenty of cabinet space tohouse kitchen items such as woodenknife racks.
The cabinets are super big so wecould take everything off the counters,he said.
The countertops are granite with acomplementary backsplash. Theyreaccented by tiny halogen lights underthe cabinets that work on a dimmerswitch.
The same wood cabinetry is used
above the fireplace in the living roomand for the built-in entertainment unit.A door, similar to those used on a roll-top desk, can be raised or lowered toview or hide the television screen.
Hendricks also designed shelving thatreaches to the ceiling above the desk inthe den. The decorative designs at the
top replicate the same pattern abovethe living room fireplace.Hendricks tore out all the old materi-
als, disposed of them, did all the electri-cal work in the attic and inside thehouse, replaced some of the plumbingand did all the wall and floor prepara-tion and painting, except for the fauxwork and wall mural in the master bath.
The cabinetry in that bath has a mixof rounded and flat lines and a pair ofnarrow cabinets that reach to the top ofthe cathedral ceiling. Theyre part of the
paneling that frames the mirror andhides several small cam lights on dim-mer switches.
Other special touches include Hen-dricks design for the marble floor, aglass shower with scalloped top and a

DIY IS NOT FOR EVERYBODY
Not everyone is cut out to be a do-it-yourself con-tractor like Dave Hendricks, who had the time, thepassion and the patience to embark on a projectand see it through to completion.
People who think theyll save money by not hiringa general contractor should consider the opportu-nity cost, said John P. Caulfield, Jr., president ofLandmark Builders in Granite Bay. Thats the benefit,profit or value of something that must be given upto acquire or achieve something else.
How much time do they have to dedicate to aproject, how much time are they willing to spendaway from their family, and how much free time arethey willing to give up? Caulfield asks.
Another factor is expense. People have toldCaulfield they could have saved money if theyddone a project themselves. Caulfields answer? If asalesman could make two more successful calls, hemight earn enough money to have the project doneprofessionally.
Caulfield recently received a call for help from ado-it-yourselfer who had gone way over his budgeton a project that also took much longer to completethan expected.
Many people dont understand sequencing of aproject, Caulfield said. There also are many detailsthat go into remodeling, such as licensing, insur-ance, paperwork and obtaining permits.
Professionals know the efficiency of projects andcan help alleviate a lot of pitfalls, he said.

BY EILEEN WILSON
SPECIAL TO THE GRANITE BAY VIEW
Mom and dads golden yearsare something many adult chil-dren lose sleep over.
But in living communitiesthat have become popular inrecent years, mom and dad arenot only living, theyre thriving.
Good luck pinning them downfor a visit theyre too darnbusy having fun.
Erica Caldwell, marketingdirector for Eskaton Lodge atGranite Bay, agrees.
When people come in hereand say Im tired, I say, Youbetter get energized because
you have a lot of sharing to do,and a lot of friends to meet.
Eskatons slogan includestransforming the aging expe-rience and living communitiesare doing just that.
We have a full social calen-dar, exercise programs andactivities, Caldwell said. We
have a resident who is 100years old, and shes the first oneto participate in the hula les-sons, the ballet lessons.
According to the Senior Citi-zens Council, while maintain-
ing your physical health isimportant to healthy aging,taking care of your emotionalhealth is important, as well.
Independent and assistedliving communities like Eska-ton strive to make sure resi-dents social and emotionalneeds are met.
June Stoeven, a resident ofEskaton Lodge at Granite Bayfor over five years, enjoys visit-
ing with friends.I enjoy the people. Every-
body just seems to fit together,she said recently, while sippingher morning coffee in therestaurant-like dining room.
Mary Mascarino, a residentof seven months, agrees.
The food is great, and Ienjoy meeting a lot of people.Ive made a lot of friends, butIm the talkative type Im theBingo Girl, she said.
Caldwell credits the socialatmosphere with bringing resi-dents together residentswho have strong cognitive abil-ity, and residents who arent as

dents are really inspirational tothe lower cognitive residents.Its wonderful that they can

Seasonal displays, fresh flow-ers, and restaurant-style dining
with daily specials, offer seniorsall the pampering of a nicehotel, with private studios, orone and two bedroom apart-ment-style homes.
Community living in estab-lishments like Eskaton offersocial stimulation, but also pro-vide transportation to bankingand grocery shopping, as wellas outings to destinations likethe Westfield Galleria, Thunder Valley, and even day trips to
Tahoe and the Bay Area.We are an age-in-place
community, Caldwell said.We offer completely inde-pendent living through Level 4assisted living.
Safety features like EskatonsQuiet Care a series of in-apartment sensors that track
residents daily movements andalert staff if something is amiss allow staff to detect potentialmedical conditions or falls.
And in-room amenities like
granite counters, wood floors,mini refrigerators and micro-waves offer all the comforts ofhome.
But many baby boomersstruggle with the question,How do I know when itstime?
Sometimes families needhelp from a professional, likeGranite Bay resident KristinaBlocker from dementiacareadvisor.com to determine the
proper time, the right commu-nity, and how to best approachmom, dad, or a spouse.
Blocker, a certified gerontol-ogist, offers workshops to helpdispel common myths andanswer questions for familymembers.

Granite Bay restaurantsspecialty is marinated chickenBY SENA CHRISTIAN
GRANITE BAY VIEW
Every time my boyfriend andI discuss what to eat out fordinner, I state my usual prefer-ence: Mexican.
I could eat Mexican food sev-en days a week, and I am noteven kidding. This has been myfood genre of choice for as long
as I remember. Id eat chipsand salsa for breakfast, lunchand dinner if society didntjudge me.
Needless to say, my infatua-tion has taken me to my fairshare of Mexican joints. Uponmy first visit to El Pollo de Oroin Granite Bay, the eateryquickly rose to the top of mylist of favorite local restaurants.
The Santa Fe-style eateryopened in March 2011 and its
name means the goldenchicken. When the new own-ers bought the 25-year-oldestablishment last year, theyopted to keep the old nameintact. Although, the goldenchicken could also referencethe restaurants specialty, amarinated chicken served withrice, beans and tortillas.
Its marinated all night, withno oils and with a hint of lime,
said manager Gabby Diaz. Itsreally good.Customer Jennifer Roberson
didnt try the marinated chick-en during her recent visit to therestaurant, instead opting forone of her two preferred dish-es. She works at Essentials SpaSalon next door and buyslunch at El Pollo de Oro twice aweek.
Its very fresh, Robersonsaid. I either get the fish tacos
or the ceviche. The ceviche isamazing.
El Pollo de Oro sits nestled inthe corner of a shopping centeron Auburn Folsom Road andDouglas Boulevard. The restau-
rants interior boasts warm yel-low and orange walls, with
sombreros and pottery on dis-play.
I may not be a foodie, but Iknow good Mexican food, andEl Pollo de Oro offers high-quality, flavorful dishes. The
food isnt over-the-top or tryingtoo hard to be unique. Its just
right: fresh tasting with anabundance of flavors, perfectportion size, served hot and allfor a reasonable price.
I ordered the vegetarian bur-rito stuffed with zucchini, pep-
pers, onions, tomatoes, beansand a good helping of cheeseon top. One of the best veggieburritos Ive had.
One of my dining compan-ions ordered the ceviche, afresh raw fish marinated in cit-rus juice and spiced with chili
peppers, which he described asquite tasty. But this appetizercame out late with the entre.
Either that or the food cameout early, he said.
True, our dinner arrived
quickly and the few minuteswe did wait were spent eatingthe delicious salsa and crispytortilla chips, which our atten-
tive waitress replenished sever-al times without even asking ifwe wanted more. She knew: Ofcourse, we wanted more!
The atmosphere was livelyand family friendly, but notnoisy. Beer is available on tap.
My friends and I engaged inconversation in the cozy envi-ronment offered by El Pollo deOro and never felt rushed topay our bill and leave. In fact,we ended up staying there for
more than two hours beforerealizing the restaurant hadclosed.

Piano store hits a chord with music communitySherman Clay offers lessons, recital room
BY LAURA OBRIEN
SPECIAL TO THE GRANITE BAY VIEW
Rich, full piano notes flow off the fingertips of Sher-man Clay manager Thomas Masi as he plays one ofthe stores Steinways.
In the 110-seat recital hall at the back of theRoseville stores large, airy piano showroom, youngpiano students, piano teachers, professional musi-cians and music-lovers alike can enjoy the sound ofSteinway pianos handcrafted in New York and Ham-burg, Germany.
The store located in the Nugget shopping center atthe intersection of Pleasant GroveBoulevard and Fairway Drive opened
in 2008. Masi took over as manager inNovember. Recent events such as AnAfternoon of Jazz, piano recitals andcompetitions, and meetings of pianoclubs are establishing Sherman Clayas a key local venue for music appre-ciation.
Teachers know were here becausenow they have a beautiful facility todo their recitals, Masi said. Youdont have to be a concert pianist tobe in here.
Sherman Clay began as a San Francisco-based con-
cert music hall in 1870 and became an authorizedSteinway dealer in 1892. While the chains retail pianosales once stretched nationwide, Sherman Clay nowoperates six stores on the West Coast, including inSeattle, Portland, and the Bay Area, and two stores inTexas.
Bonni Nutter, a Granite Bay piano teacher and pres-ident of the Placer branch of the Music Teachers Asso-ciation of California, said Sherman Clay has built arelationship with the local piano community.
The Roseville store provides its recital hall to pianostudents for performances, competitions, and certifi-cate of merit exams. The store also hosted a recentfundraiser for the music teachers associations schol-arship program.
Up until the time that Sherman Clay got here wehad no place to do these kinds of things, Nutter said.Now with Sherman Clay here were able to offer somuch more for our students.
Apart from Steinways, Sherman Clay offers of rangeof pianos, including the Boston and Essex lines bySteinway & Sons, and decorator pianos available indifferent finishes. Sound improves as a piano getslonger or taller, Masi said. The 9-foot long SteinwayModel D Concert Grand in the Sherman Clay recital
hall retails for more than $100,000. But families canfind used pianos at the store starting at $800, he said.Sherman Clay also sells digital pianos, a cheaper alter-native to acoustic pianos.
Another Granite Bay piano teacher, Barbara Adam,highlighted the importance of the quality of a stu-
dents instrument.You want the best quality instrument that you can
buy because thats going to offer your student the bestpossible fundamentals of learning to play the piano inthe first place, Adam said. Theyre going to enjoytheir playing because theyre getting a better tone, abetter sound.
Sherman Clay offers two monthly opportunities for
local teachers and musicians to use its pianos. In thepiano club, musicians can practice performing in arelaxed setting. The piano ensemble makes use of thestores matched Steinways for playing music for fourhands. The Roseville store also hosts regular pianoconcerts, such as this months tribute to Vince Guaral-
di, known for his compositions for the Peanuts ani-mated cartoons.
At one time, before the internet and television,piano playing was a chief form of American entertain-ment.
There are families who, like my family, made surethat all their children had the chance to play, Masisaid. You grew up with a piano in your household.Now its big screen TVs. Its computers. Its Xboxes.Those have taken the place of the arts. Thats why we
try to do a lot of different events here to get peopleinterested in the piano industry.Nutter said piano playing engages all the senses.You have to give something of yourself to the
music, she said. I think that that engages so much ofyour brain and your emotions to do it.

With interest rates at his-toric lows, real estateexperts are saying now is
a great time to take advantage,
either by purchasing or refi-nancing your home.Granite Bay Realtor Valisa
Schmidley says that for homebuyers and sellers, finding aRealtor who understands the
local market is essential.Schmidley said that market
knowledge includes muchmore than information aboutthe home she is selling.
It includes knowledge of the
local school systems, crimerates, traffic flow, location oflocal churches, school bound-aries and more, she said.
Theres just not a substitutefor an effective Realtors market
knowledge, said Schmidley, who works out of the Keller Williams Roseville office. It
makes the difference as to whether your home sells ornot.
Schmidley said she typically will put up to $2,000 into ahome before she shows it to a
potential buyer, and that if it isnot something that she wouldput her own family in or rec-ommend for someone whoshes knows or cares about, shewont recommend it for a buy-
er.A Realtor that is not willing
to do that is not serious abouttheir business, she said. Par-ticularly in a luxury market.
Leslie Kelly recently pur-
chased a home in Granite Baythrough Schmidley and saidshe feels it was the right time tobuy, given low interest ratescombined with a deflated

housing market.She said that she and
her husband were inter-ested in the local marketfive or six years ago but
could not have affordedto buy in Granite Bay atthat time.
We lived in the areafor about 15 years, Kellysaid. To come back andhave the prices be deflat-ed here, to us it lookedlike a good deal.
Schmidley said that totake advantage of recentlow interest rates, it isimportant to work with aRealtor who is well con-nected with a trustwor-thy financial adviser.
She said a Realtor whoclaims to know all aboutfinancing options isprobably not telling thetruth.
Its really hard to dowhat we do and keep up with whats going on inthe lending industry,
Schmidley said. Thingshave been changinghourly these days, lend-ing requirements havegrown more and morestringent.
Schmidley said thattrusting a Realtor is liketrusting your familyphysician. She said hope-fully your family physi-cian wont have so muchego that he or she wont
refer you to a specialist when you really needone.
The same could be saidfor a Realtor referring aclient to a trusted finan-cial adviser, she said.
The reason is, they arenot salesmen, she said.They are consultantsabout something that isextremely important to a
familys financial stabilityand well being, and I relyon them.
Jason Mata is a finan-cial adviser with VitekMortgage Group in
Sacramento and says forclients who are in highcost-of-living areas likeGranite Bay there are sev-
eral options for takingadvantage of low interestrates.
Mata said that particu-larly in Granite Bay, where homes typicallyhave higher loanamounts, many home-owners think that refi-nancing is simply not anoption.
I think it is important
to share with Granite Bayresidents that there is jumbo financing avail-able, Mata said.
Jumbo financingmeans that anyone who
owes more than $474,950on their existing loan canstill get refinanced, butlikely at a higher interest
rate. According to Freddie
Mac, a government entitythat manages the nation-al mortgage market,interest rates on a 30-yearfixed mortgage reached3.92 percent in January,the lowest point sincethat organization begantracking rates in 1971.
Mata said that in Feb-ruary, rates are averaging
even lower, at 3.875 per-cent.
To get the lowest inter-est rate, what is called aconforming loan, qualify-ing homeowners mustowe less than $417,000on their home, Mata said.
High-balance loans areavailable for those whoowe between $417,000and $474,950, and those
who owe more than$474,950 fall into the jumbo category, Matasaid.
Interest rates typicallyrise between .125 to .25
percent higher at eachlevel, based on theamount still owed on thehome, Mata said.
So if Im quotingsomebody today at 3.875percent on a conformingloan, it might be 4 per-cent to 4.125 on a high-balance, he said. Andon a jumbo loan, it mightbe anywhere from 4.25 to4.5 percent. These are all30-year fixed financeoptions.
Mata said that on aver-age his clients, many of
whom are Granite Bayresidents, are savingbetween $150 and $200each month on theirmortgages after refinanc-ing.
In times like this whenbudgets are a little tightfor households, creatingsavings of $200 a monthis significant, Mata said.
One problem home-
owners have faced inrecent years is beingupside down on theirmortgage, meaning theymight not qualify for refi-nancing.
To address this issue,the Home AffordableRefinance Program(HARP) was put in placeabout two years ago aspart of President BarackObamas stimulus planand has been recentlyrevised to a new 2.0 ver-sion.
Previous loan-to-valuelimits with HARP were setat 125 percent, Mata said.
The revised HARP 2.0
program allows home-
owners with loans thatare owned by FannieMae, another govern-ment entity, or FreddieMac to be able to refi-
nance with no equityrequirements, Mata said.
This means that bor-rowers will now be able torefinance regardless ofhow far their homes havefallen in value, he said.
Another option forhomeowners is FederalHousing Administration(FHA) financing, Matasaid.
Clients in Granite Baycan refinance an FHAloan up to a balance of$580,000, he said.
An FHA loan is moreexpensive than a con-forming or high-balanceloan in terms of the mort-gage insurance cost,Mata said. There isupfront mortgage insur-ance required as well asmonthly mortgage insur-
ance.

PHOTOS COURTESY DALE CHARLES | COMPAGO.NET
Above, The luxurious master suite comes alive with brilliant sun and an airy,fresh feel thanks to windows and a coffered ceiling. At right, back-facingrooms all include access to the extensive decks that overlook the river.
A brick faade, which hides a secretcourtyard complete with wrought irongates, circular hedges and riotously col-
orful orange trees, gives only the merestglimpse of what awaits inside.
The entry is filled with stunning sur-prise.
Forty-foot ceilings are dotted withskylights and thousands of feet ofgleaming glass are all designed to takein a view that is beyond compare.
Though the view steals the show, theinterior is beyond compare, as well.Original wood floors, decorated in ashowy yet down-to-earth herringbonepattern, fill the home with warmth andcomfort, as do large beams chiseledwood timber lintels throughout.
Every beam points toward the river,said Dana Svanum of Bishop RealEstate. I love the way they have kept theoriginal floors and the original brickwork. This was Dean Ungers design, toput these timbers in here. The timbers
are all, in some way, related to the river.The interior is filled with natures
touches. From indoor planters filledwith rain-forest-like beauty, to a hon-eyed-wood catwalk, to yards of naturalstone, the home is like a wooded para-dise.

The kitchen is noexception. A Juperanogranite, filled with golden
swirls, gives an almost artdeco look, according toSvanum. Distressed black wood cabinetryenhanced with goldembossing is the perfectcontrast to the light andlovely granite.
The kitchen, recentlyupdated, includes a
blond-wood, granite-topped center island,crystal and iron chande-liers, sub-zero refrigera-tor, built-in microwave,
double ovens, four-burn-er cook top with grill,compactor, and enoughdrawers and shelves tohouse the most impres-sive cookbook library andgourmet condiments.
But the cooks favoritespot will be the doublestainless sink, where you
can gaze at nothing buttreetops and the riverbeyond.
The area includes along butlers pantry fea-
turing granite toppedsink with a separatepantry for dry goods, aswell.
Svanum describes thehome as having an EastCoast feel a style thatcarries from the homesfront courtyard andentry, down to the
unique, oversized gameroom with antique-door wine cellar on the sub-floor level.
Back-facing rooms all
include French-dooraccess to the extensivedecks that overlook theriver, and each rear-fac-ing room includes a largeplank lintel, as well.
But its the mastersuite, complete with cof-fered ceiling, whichSvanum describes ashaving a luxurious cop-per look that comes alive with brilliant sun andairy, fresh feel.
A marble-encased fire-
place, built-in marblenight tables, and a largeseating area define thespace that takes perfectadvantage of river views.
A wonderful andunique feature of thehome the masterincludes separate his andhers bathrooms.

Upside down homeowners can now take advantage of revised HARPBY KEN PAGLIA
GOLD COUNTRY NEWS SERVICE
An expanded federalprogram will soonallow some severely
underwater homeowners
to refinance at todayshistorically low interestrates.
President Obamas2009 Home AffordableRefinance Program, orHARP, originally permit-ted homeowners who were less than 125 per-cent upside down to refi-nance. But in Octoberthat upper limit was lift-ed. Banks are now figur-ing out how to imple-ment the revamped pro-gram, and are aiming tomake it available to con-sumers on March 17.
HARP is a great boostbecause it should lowermortgage payments for
those who have beenstuck with higher interestrates. Everyone could usea few hundred dollars amonth raise, said JeffEberhart, a Loomis-
based mortgage consult-ant who has done dozensof HARP loans for North-ern California clients.
Homeowners who areless than 125 percentupside down can takeadvantage of the pro-gram right now, andthose over 125 percentshould wait until March17.
To qualify, an ownersfirst mortgage must beowned or insured by Fan-nie Mae or Freddie Mac,and obtained by thembefore May 2009. Bor-rowers cannot havemissed any mortgagepayments in the past six
months, and not morethan one payment in thepast year. Homeownerswith a second mortgagecan take advantage ofHARP as long as the sec-ond lien holder approvesthe refinance.
Matt Sundermier, aconsultant at BentleyMortgage in Folsom,touted HARP as a timely
relief for responsiblehomeowners who havetoughed it out and con-tinued to make paymentsdespite a sour economy.
The only downside Isee to HARP is that itdoesnt include every-one, Sundermier said.
Roseville homeowner Vince Santucci, one ofEberharts clients, was
155 percent upside downon his first and secondmortgage combined,admitting he didnt thinkit would be possible torefinance.
But last February heapplied, and in less than30 days saw his interestrate drop.
It went pretty seam-lessly, and I cant com-plain about saving mon-ey, said Santucci, 43, astate employee.
Of course, HARP isnt asilver bullet, and doesnthelp homeowners getabove water on theirloans. A loan modifica-tion including a principalbalance reduction is stillthe only way to get outfrom being underwater,and todays lenders arentvolunteering to do that.
The reality of todays
mortgage crisis is that theonly people who will getrelief are those who arewilling to walk away fromtheir loans and stop mak-ing mortgage payments,
said Eberhart.So while HARP may
not be the end-all, be-allsolution, it most certainlyoffers a bit of a lifeline.
It allows people whohave been making theirmortgage payments ontheir home that is worthless than what they oweto finally take advantageof the ridiculously lowinterest rates, and willhopefully keep one morehomeowner from goinginto default and addingto the foreclosure crisis,said Eberhart.

Our parents are of the gener-ation that has a fear that thesemight be nursing homes,Blocker said. But statistics bearout that when it comes to a
resistant parent entering a liv-ing community, 95 percent ofseniors think the move is thebest thing that ever happenedto them after just two weeks.
When it comes to knowing when its time to seek help,Blocker has a few questions toponder:
How is the house managed? Has your loved one stopped
keeping the house in the condi-tion that they have for 50 years?
Is the family member losingweight?
Is he or she falling? Are medications taken on
time, or are they forgottenentirely?
Is there food in the house?
She explained that while sen-iors tend to sit in their homesand watch television and eatfrozen meals, their quality of life,and their health and longevityare substantially improved by
moving to a living community.Caldwell recommends a liv-
ing community, if only for thesocial stimulation, as well.
If the elder is dining alone,experiences isolation, showssigns of hoarding, it would betime to look into making amove, Caldwell said. Some ofour residents here are like theBelle of the ball, others wouldrather sit and read quietly. Werecently had a Granite Bay High
School student visit, and shesaid, Oh my gosh, this is justlike a sorority house for womenin their 80s.
Who would have believed, acouple of decades ago, that 80would be the new 20?

BY SENA CHRISTIAN
GRANITE BAY VIEW
A Granite Bay HighSchool graduate hasmade it big time, dancingat Juilliard in New YorkCity with her future sightsset on Broadway.
But thats not all, folks.Molly Griffin, 20, is
raising funds for a pro-gram called the ArushaArts Initiative, which usesdance, drama and music
to empower young peo-ple in Tanzania. Griffin isgoing to the east Africancountry with nine otherJuilliard students for onemonth this summer.
This will be the groupsfourth time teaching per-forming arts in Tanzania,and Griffins first timeparticipating.
Im really excited, butalso nervous, Griffinsaid. Im shocked Imable to do this.
Shes never traveledsuch a long distancebefore, let alone for anextended stay. Her group will run a workshop atthe Umoja YouthEmpowerment Center, aschool that provides free
education to studentsage 15 to 30 who havedropped out of govern-ment-run schoolsbecause of poverty.
Tanzania home toMt. Kilimanjaro and theSerengeti is celebrat-ing its 50th anniversary ofindependence fromEuropean rule this year,but the nation remainspoverty stricken.HIV/AIDS is the leadingcause of death for adults.For children, its malaria.
The Arusha Arts Initia-tive began in 2008, and isnow led by Juilliard stu-
dent Jenna Pollack. Grif-fin, who graduated fromGranite Bay High Schoolin 2009, and Pollard are
both third-year students,and two of only 24 pupilsin their class.
She comes to class
calm and prepared, andmaintains a sense ofhumility that is so rare forsomeone with all of hertalent, Pollack said. Andit has translated into herwork with the Initiative.
Pollack said Griffins
long-term goals as anartist and teacher makeher a perfect fit.
The programs 10 stu-dents will stay in a hosteland ride the public bus tothe youth center eachmorning, where they will
break the Tanzaniansinto three groups. Griffinwill help lead the danceworkshop.
Were going to teachdance, Griffin said. Notthe technical stuff welearn about at Juilliard,
but the basics of moving your body and differentways of expressing your-self. You see the confi-dence rise in people andthats the most amazingthing I love about teach-ing.

It is common knowl-edge that exerciseburns calories and
helps you to shed extra
pounds.Armed with this knowl-edge, many people thinkthat losing weight shouldbe easy with enough exer-cise. You may take this asbad news, but the truth isthat for those who arentused to exercising and areout of shape, beginningan exercise program mayactually lead to weightgain.
This fact, however,shouldnt stop you fromexercising, as youll even-tually turn the weight cor-ner and start losing.
What is it about exer-cise that may cause somepeople to gain instead oflose weight?
Muscle Mass: One of themain reasons exercisingcan lead to weight gain isthat it promotes thegrowth of muscle mass.
If you ar
