The Philharmonic Society of Orange County is proud to present their 21st Philharmonic House of Design in the bucolic community of Coto de Caza. This beautiful 7,100 sq. ft home rests on more than 2 acres in the center of Coto de Caza’s equestrian estates. Reminiscent of an authentic Tuscan villa, the home feature 5 bedrooms, five fireplaces, Venetian wall finishes, a temperature controlled wine cellar and more. Stepping outside, the magnifi-cent outdoor living space feels as if you are in the heart of Tuscany, with sweep-ing lawns, a salt water pool, Mediterra-nean gardens and a fabulous outdoor loggia with wood burning fireplace. The pastoral setting offers a welcome refuge from the throes of modern life and is a great party house! The 2013 Philhar-monic House of Design is available to rent for corporate and private parties for a truly unique experience.

The House of Design is an ingenious collaboration of music and design. Premier Interior Designers from Los Angeles and Orange County are invited to transform this home into a stunning showcase. As the primary annual fundraiser for the Philharmonic Society Youth Music Education Programs, the House of Design draws a discerning crowd. The festive Premiere Night, April 20, will feature the first showing of the House as well as food, cocktails and entertainment.

Orange County’s 35th annual “A Taste of Greece” festival will be held on June 21-23 at St. Paul’s Greek Orthodox Church (4949 Alton Parkway, between Culver Drive and Jeffrey Road, Irvine, CA 92604). More than 11,000 guests are expected to attend the three-day festival, which will feature traditional Greek cuisine, wine tasting, live music, authentic Greek dancing with lessons and boutique booths reminiscent of the Plaka, a well-known pic-turesque historical neighborhood of Athens.

Festival hours are 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday, June 21; noon to 10 p.m. on Saturday, June 22; and noon to 9 p.m. on Sunday, June 23. Festival admission is just $3 per person with free admis-sion on Saturday, June 22 from noon – 5 p.m. for seniors older than 65 years. Children under the age of 10 are admitted free (with parents or an adult) throughout the three-day festival. Free festival parking will also be available, with complimentary shuttle buses transporting guests from public park-ing sites in Irvine.

Greek cuisine and hospitality will be the focal points as the festival will feature authentic recipes for traditional Greek dishes, delicious pastries and a variety of beverages, highlighted with a wine “Tav-erna,” offering Greek wine and beer. The traditional Greek menu will include Chicken, Lamb Chops, Greek French Fries, Gyros, Pastichio (Greek la-sagna), Loucanico (Greek sausage), Spanakopita (spinach and feta pie), Dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves), Saganaki (Greek brandy-flamed cheese),

Loukoumathes (Greek dough-nut holes), Greek Salad, Calamari and more. There wil l also be a Greek coffee-house set up to serve Greek and American coffee drinks in a tradi-tional Plaka set-ting with Greek dance lessons offered free to all. The Philop-t o c h o s , t h e church’s philan-thropic group, will bake around the clock during the weeks lead-ing up to the festival to prepare traditional Baklava and other exquisite pastries.

“As Orange County’s largest Greek Orthodox congregation, we are delighted to host a festival that offers an opportunity for the community to experience authentic Greek dining, wine, music, dancing and entertainment,” said Father Steven Tsichlis, St. Paul’s Greek Orthodox Priest. “This year’s festival, our 35th annual, will offer something for everyone with a variety of Greek-themed activi-ties, and tours of the Church to view the beautiful

sanctuary that contains Christian artwork done in mosaic patterned after ancient prototypes that are unique in Orange County.”

A family-friendly affair, the festival will be lined with boutique shops, a variety of games and a full-scale carnival. Event attendees can also enter an opportunity drawing for the chance to win one of three premiere prizes, with a Grand Prize of $3,000 and 2nd Prize of $1,200 and 3rd Prize of a 60” television.

Small town, big city, the suburbs or the country – no matter where you live, you’re part of a local community. Without realizing it, you can have a big impact on your community by the everyday choices that you make. And a thriving local community is good for everyone who lives there.

Why You Should Go LocalLocal First, a Grand Rapids, Michi-

gan based organization that encour-ages sustainable, locally-based econ-omies, states that when you purchase at locally owned businesses rather than nationally owned, more money is kept in the community because locally-owned businesses often pur-chase from other local businesses, service providers and farms. Local First estimates that for every $100 you spend with local businesses, $73 remains in the community. Only $57 remains in the local economy when you buy from a national chain store.

Most new jobs are provided by local businesses as well, and local business owners donate more to lo-cal charities than non-local owners. This means that your support of local businesses has a farther-reaching effect than you might realize. You’re helping people find and keep jobs, and you’re helping make it possible

for charitable organiza-tions to continue doing much-needed work.

How You Can Go Local

Start Subscribing. Get a subscription to your community news-papers and local maga-zines. Not only will they keep you informed about what’s happening in your community, but you’ll help support local busi-ness.

Shop Locally. There are plenty of locally owned businesses and service providers in your neighborhood. By sign-ing up for a free account, you can easily search out and follow nearby businesses and service pro-viders such as jewelers, plumbers, grocers, and accountants, to get coupons and find out about special events and offers. MerchantCircle’s “Answers” lets you get expert advice from local businesses in your area and across the country on virtually any topic for free. Car mechanics, veterinarians and professionals in every industry will quickly respond,

saving you time and often money. Get Involved. Many communities

have volunteer advisory councils for local governments – everything from city planning committees to arts coun-cils. Check out your town’s web site to find out how you can impact the development and character of your community.

Visit Local Attractions. Parks, arboretums, museums, parades, fes-tivals, theatres – there plenty of ways to have a good time without leaving

town. A staycation or weekend get-away at home is less expensive for you than heading out of town, and you get to enjoy local treasures.

Volunteer. Local schools, commu-nity centers, libraries, museums and charities often need people like you. Check the local paper, community bulletin boards and web sites such as VolunteerMatch.org to find out what you can do to make your community stronger.

A good design can feel like something you have always been waiting for without knowing.

— Paul Huizinga

By Esther MilletteSpring is in the air and the weather is

warming. It is time to pack the blanket, basket, and cooler and head off on a picnic adventure. Leave around 2:00 on a Sunday afternoon with your favorite destination in mind. Our favorite destina-tion is a state park close to our house. I love to pair our picnic lunch with a wine that goes along fine.

One of my favorite picnic items is fried chicken. It is easy and inexpensive to make. Take your chicken legs and dip it in egg. Roll in your favorite crumb batter then fry in some oil, toss on the platter and you’ve got a meal. With fried chicken as the main picnic dish, pack some washed red grapes, and don’t forget some plates. For a picnic with chicken and red grapes, a chilled white chardonnay wine by the Little Penguin, vintage 2010, from South Eastern Australia would be truly divine.

We also love to bring sandwiches, not just any sandwiches but roast beef and swiss. I have the deli slice the roast beef thin and layer it on big between slices of fresh wheat bread, top with the swiss. The sandwiches are fun and we pack carrots for a side. Roast beef and the sharp tang of swiss taste great with a cabernet sau-vignon, a favorite of mine is the Barefoot cabernet sauvignon from California, the current vintage in stock at the supermarket does the trick.

Another nice picnic food and wine pairing is sliced summer sausage, cubed cheese, club crackers, and green grapes or a couple of sliced gala apples. For a picnic with fingers, I pick the four pack of chilled white zinfandel wine from the Gallo Family vineyards in California, vintage un-stated. This is a fun change from using a glass, but bring some plastic clear cups as

backup in case the picnic area is a glass free area. Besides the early prep work, this is an easy cleanup, finger food picnic.

If the picnic area has a grill, premake some 80/20 patties, pack some sesame seed buns, fresh salt and pepper, and your favorite burger toppings. Bring along some gourmet vegetable chips. When you arrive at the picnic area, preheat the coals and season the patties with the grinded salt and pepper. Twist open a bottle of Robert Mondavi merlot from California, vintage 2009, and serve with the cooked burgers and vegetable chips.

If you have already ate lunch and ro-mance is your theme, cut up some straw-berries and pick plump green grapes, melt some sweet chocolate and quickly dip in

your fruit. Let dry on a plate and refrigerate. Pack them tightly in a container and place in the cooler. As for the wine, pinor noir can’t be beat with its slight fruity, smooth flavor. The Barefoot pinor noir from Cali-fornia is perfect, especially if you open and chill it the night before the picnic. It makes for a smooth taste the next day.

Spring picnics are a special treat. Whether it is a main meal, light lunch, or a romantic rendezvous, these picnic foods and wines are tasty and fun. Take a stroll after your picnic and enjoy the colorful sights of spring. Relax, have fun, and slow life down with a lovely spring picnic.

Popular local dentist dr. michael Tessier discusses

Sleep Problems.

While the well-known local dentist Dr. Michael Tessier is popular for his exceptional a gentle and friendly care of children, cosmetic restorations, and orthodontics, his offi ce primarily focuses on his patients overall health. “I read an article the other day that said, in effect, sleep could be hazardous to your health. They were referring to “sleep apnea”, the cessation of breathing while sleeping. I was especially interested in this topic as my offi ce provides signifi cant relief for people who suffer from this particular discomfort,” said Dr. Tessier.“This problem could be caused by extra redundant tissue (fat) in the throat or neck which can reduce the diameter of or even cut-off the windpipe while one is in a relaxed sleep-state. It can also be caused by the lower jaw relaxing back into the neck, allowing the base of the tongue to lie on the windpipe, like a manhole cover, cutting off the air to the lungs. This causes the body to wake up enough to take a deep breath. These wake-ups are often gasps for air, and may even include sitting bolt-upright in bed, in a panic. Either of these restrictions can happen as many as sixty times or more a night preventing deep, replenishing sleep, and causing a dramatic reduction in the amount of oxygen that gets into the blood stream. This oxygen reduction negatively impacts the brain, and is damaging or stressful to the heart muscle, and may be fatal in some cases.Yesterday, I had a conversation with a psychologist about the negative results of sleep deprivation, like from sleep apnea, or just plain too-few hours of sack-time. She said that the biggest issue is the replenishment of neuro –transmitters (chemi-cals in nerve connections ((synapses)) like serotonin, acetylcholine, or dopamine) that could, among other things, lead to depression. The conversation went to sleep aids, like Temazepam or Ambien. I asked if taking drugs like that habit were forming on a long-term basis. She was of the opinion that the negatives from sleep depriva-tion were worse than the negatives from long-term use of drugs.“An easier solution than drugs, is often to use one of our sleep apnea appliances, which is a simple in the mouth appliance that keeps the jaw forward and the base of the tongue off the windpipe (trachea)., or, three, use a CPAP device, a positive-pressure pump that keeps the windpipe open,” said Dr. Tessier.So, if you or the person sleeping next to you is snoring loudly or waking-up gasping for air, a call to Dr. Tessier’s Offi ce for a complimentary consultation appointment may be in order. Dr. Michael Tessier’s offi ce is located at 28562 Oso at the intersec-tion of Oso and Antonio parkway in the center near the carwash and Starbucks. The telephone number is phone number is 949-459-7212.

by Jeffrey W. Shields The 9th Annual Orange County

Religion & the Law Symposium was held on Thursday, March 14, 2013, at Chapman University School of Law in Orange. This annual event focuses on hot topic legal issues concerning religious liberty, and is sponsored by the J. Reuben Clark Law Society. Co-sponsors this year included Chap-man University School of Law, the Christian Legal Society, the Federalist Society, the Jewish Bar Association, Pepperdine Univer-sity, UCI School of Law, Western State College of Law and Whittier Law School. “The Symposiums provide a forum for people of faith to find common ground and dialogue about important legal and religious principles”, said Jeff Shields, Chair of the Symposium.

This year ’s symposium, “The Religious Freedom Battle Moves to the States: Non-Partisan Leg-islative Caucuses”, featured three experienced panelists. Tim Schul-tz is the State Legislative Policy Director for the American Reli-gious Freedom Program in Wash-ington, D.C., and has been at the forefront of the nationwide efforts to establish non-partisan legisla-

tive caucuses on religious liberty in every state. Michael Schut-tloffel is the Executive Director of the Kansas Catholic Conference, and has been very involved with the Kansas legislative caucus. Mark Hutchison is a State Senator from Nevada, and has been active in promoting bi-partisan efforts concerning religious liberty.

The approximate 100 attend-ees of the Symposium included judges, attorneys, professors, religious leaders and students. Ryan Anderson, a Chapman law student said, “I found the sympo-sium very interesting and really learned a lot”.

The speakers explained that many of the religious liberty is-sues currently being faced by our society are directly impacted by state legislatures, and that there is a real need for non-partisan state legislative caucuses to ad-dress these issues for the benefit of people of all faiths. “A high percentage of religious freedom threats materialize in the states”, said Schultz, “but states have not been as quick to recognize that this is something they will have to confront.” The panel emphasized that there is a vacuum of reli-

gious protection at the state level because of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1997 decision in City of Boerne v. Flores, which held that the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993 (which Congress passed nearly unani-mously) was unconstitutional as applied to the states – thus, leav-ing them unprotected. Accord-ingly, each individual state needs to pass its own similar Religious Freedom Restoration Act in order to protect the religious freedom rights of all individuals.

fabie combS croWned mS. Senior orange counTy

Fabie Combs, from Yorba Linda, was crowned Ms. Senior Orange County 2013 at the third of eight preliminary pageants for the Ms. Senior California Pageant held Saturday, April 6, 2013 at the Norman P. Murray Community Center in Mission Viejo. Along with first runner up Suzanne Millhollen-Goodrich from Rancho Santa Margarita, Combs will now advance to the State Pageant to compete for the title of Ms. Senior California in August. The Ms. Senior California State Pageant will be at the Rose Center Theater in Westminster on Saturday, August 31, 2013. Second runner-up was Elaine Brammel from Carlsbad and Carol Hess from Long Beach took home the trophy for the talent competition with her song, “Don’t Rain on My Parade” from “Funny Girl.”

Throughout the competition, the contestants competed in four categories including: Personal Interview, Evening Gown, Philosophy of Life and Talent. Comb’s walk across the stage to accept the sash and trophy marked her first steps on a journey that will take her from spotlight to spotlight representing the American woman 60 years of age and up who has reached the ‘age of elegance’.

Combs, a resident of Yorba Linda, has given hours of volunteer time to or-ganizations such as the Tustin Hospital, KOCE TV Pledge Drive, Continental Cablevision, and is a board member and President of her local homeowners association. She is a member of the Tapestry Christian Fellowship. In 2002 she was selected to carry the Olympic torch because of her community ser-vice. Over the years, she has received many awards for her volunteer work. She’s been a flight attendant, a marketing rep with the Polaroid Corporation, has run corporate events, and owned her own production company, Won Lord Productions where she has aired 22 television shoes. Fabie is married with one child and two grandchildren. For her talent portion of the pageant, Combs played a Flamenco guitar arrangement of Malaguena – an arrange-ment she created. Combs is a self-taught guitarist.

The Ms. Senior America Pageant is the world’s first and foremost pageant to emphasize and give honor to women who have reached the ‘Age of El-egance’. It is a search for the gracious lady who best exemplifies the dignity, maturity and inner beauty of all Baby Boomer and Senior women. The Ms. Senior America philosophy is based upon the belief that Baby Boomers and seniors are the foundation of America, and one of our country’s most valuable resources. Women and men alike of these generations inspire their peers and younger generations to stay vital and connected to life! It is also upon their knowledge, wisdom and experience that younger generations have the opportunity to build a better society.

The next preliminary pageant will be the Ms. Senior San Diego pageant on April 26, 2013 at the Paradise Village Retirement Community in National City. If you are interested in being a contestant in San Diego, please contact Peggy Padilla at [email protected] or call (760) 431-9275.

Sponsors of the Ms. Senior California Pageant include: Emeritus Senior Living, Kaiser Permanente – Medicare & State Programs, the City of Mis-sion Viejo, and Paradise Village of National City. For more information on becoming a sponsor of the Ms. Senior California Pageant Program, contact Pamela Wheeler, California State Pageant Director and CEO of the Ms. Senior California 501(c)3 organization at [email protected].

Dr. Al Mott, in the state of New Jersey in 1972, started the Senior America Pageant Program. In 1986, the California Chapter was created under the leadership of Ms. Elda Barry of Long Beach. She led the chapter until her retirement in 1999. In 2000, Marilyn McCabe Kohler accepted the position of Director of Ms. Senior California. Since that time, the program has grown from one pageant to seven Preliminary Pageants and one Annual State Pageant. Upon Kohler’s retirement, leadership of the California Program is now under the direction of Wheeler.

Talent winner Carol Hess poses with 1st Runner Up Suzanne Millhollen-Goodrich from Rancho Santa Margarita, 2013 Ms. Senior Orange County Fabie Combs and 2nd Runner Up Elaine Brammel from Carlsbad

Both 1st Runner Up Susanne Millhollen-Goodrich and Ms. Senior Orange County 2013 Fabie Combs will be competing for the state title of Ms. Senior California on August 31, 2013 at the Rose Center Theater in Westminster.

All the contestants pose with the Royal Court.

For her talent portion, Combs plays a Flamenco guitar arrangement of Malaguena – an arrangement she created.

cookieS SoughT for miSSion Viejo’S marineS

The city’s Marine Adop-tion Commit-tee is putting out a call for cookies to dis-tribute to mili-tary members and their fami-lies during the committee’s annual spring Family Day at Lake Mission Viejo.

Over the past few years, cookie drives have resulted in donations of several thousand cookies from residents who heeded the call to celebrate April’s character quality of “service” by serving those who serve.

The city will host Family Day later this month at Lake Mission Viejo for roughly 1,200 Marines, Sailors and family members from the Headquarters Battalion of the 1st Marine Division.

“The annual goal of 10,000 cookies provides cookies and smiles for the day; some are sent home and some are sent overseas,” said the city’s Tammy Descoteaux. “But all are always appreciated as they hit home with the troops.”

Cookies – whether homemade or store bought – are sought along with Rice Krispie treats. Folks interested in donating cookies can deliver them with their name/group name and number of cookies attached to the second floor of City Hall by 3 p.m. on Friday, April 26. City Hall is at 200 Civic Center. For more information, contact Tammy Descoteaux at [email protected] or 949-470-3094.

local acTS SoughT for miSSion Viejo’S goT TalenT comPeTiTion

If you’ve ever dreamt of being on stage, now’s your chance. The Mission Viejo Community of Character Committee is seeking local talent of all types to compete in the 4th Annual “Mission Viejo’s Got Talent” show.

The talent competi-tion is a fundraiser for the committee’s Relay for Life “Goin’ Bananas for a Cure” team. Also dubbed “Performance with a Purpose,” this event gives folks an opportunity to take part in the 19th annual Mis-sion Viejo Relay for Life weekend fundraiser in June that benefits the American Cancer So-ciety. Auditions for the talent contest will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, April 12.

The fun-filled competition is open to all ages and has attracted auditions from people ages 4 to 80.

For an application and more information, contact Tammy Descoteaux at 949-470-3094 or [email protected].

Class of 2012 Improves High School Completion Rates

Nearly 97 percent of Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD) stu-dents who entered high school in 2008 have earned their high school diploma, according to data released today by the California Department of Education (CDE).

The 96.9 percent graduation rate for the Class of 2012 ranks second among Orange County school dis-tricts. The same group of students had a dropout rate of 1.8 percent. Additionally, .9 percent of students completed the requirements for a special education certificate of completion and .4 percent were still enrolled in school at the time the data was collected. The Class of 2011 had a 96.5 percent graduation rate.

“Each June, the community’s com-mitment to quality education is illus-trated when thousands of young men and women receive acknowledge-ment of their academic preparation by graduating from our high schools,” Board President John M. Alpay said. “It is exhilarating to know when a student enters our high schools as freshmen, our teachers and principals work hard with their families to ensure

that they not only graduate, but are prepared for success.”

Overall, the Class of 2012 began with 3,920 students. Of those, 3,798 graduated with a high school diploma and 36 received a special education certificate of completion. There are 14 students still enrolled and working on completing the requirements for a high school diploma. There were 71 who left without completing their education.

“There are great things happen-ing in California’s schools every day, and the upward climb of our graduation rate bears that out,” State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson said in a statement. “While I am glad to announce that we are moving in the right direction, the fact remains that we must keep moving to ensure that every California student graduates ready to succeed in the world they will find outside our classrooms.”

Graduation and dropout rates were calculated based on four-year cohort information using the state’s Califor-nia Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS). This is the third time this four-year cohort infor-mation was calculated, meaning data

may only be c o m p a r e d accura te ly o v e r t h e th ree-year period from 2009-10 to 2 0 1 1 - 1 2 . Graduation and dropout rates used different cal-culation sys-tems in pre-vious years and cannot be compared to the cohort rates.

CUSD is one of the more successful school systems in the state when it comes to ensuring students receive a high school diploma. Statewide, 78.5 per-cent of students in the Class of 2012 have graduated, while 13.2 percent have dropped out. In Orange County, 85.3 percent of this group received a high school diploma, while 9.1 per-cent dropped out.

The state also released the annual dropout rate for students in grades

nine through 12. In the 2011-2012 school year, 132 students out of 16,899 dropped out, for a rate of .8 percent. This data differs from the rates given for the Class of 2012 in that it only reviews the annual dropout rate and does not evaluate the entire four years of a high school class.

Data on individual CUSD schools can be found on the CDE DataQuest website.

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.

Fristers, a nonprofit that assists teen moms to become self-suffi-cient through education, support, and community referrals, has added a new school-readiness program for the children of teen moms.The Kidsters Chi ldcare and School-Readiness Program is offered simultaneously with the LifeCoach program for teen moms, and is available to all moms en-rolled in LifeCoach. Teen mothers rarely, if ever, put their children into preschool because they cannot af-ford it. But studies show there are great benefits to preschool, which extend far beyond Kindergarten.

Children who attend preschool are less likely to require special education, more likely to graduate from high school and, as adults, enjoy higher earnings. Children who attend preschool gain a sense of self, increase self-control, and build confidence in their ability to do things for themselves. Today’s Kindergarten curriculum is focused on academics f rom day one. Without preschool, many children struggle to adapt to the classroom while those who attended pre-school are usually ready to learn. “We have a crucial window of op-

portunity to directly invest in the lives of these children while their mothers entrust them to us during the LifeCoach program,” according to Ali Woodard, Executive Director of Fristers. “The Kidsters Program will ensure that their time with us is quality time that gives them a healthy launch into life and edu-cation.”

Fr is ters helps young moms learn how to first love and respect themselves while learning how to love and take care of their children. Fristers provides a full array of classes on topics from self-esteem to parenting, and helps teen moms set and achieve goals that will improve their lives and the lives of their children. Some examples are finishing high-school, enrolling in vocational training school and get-ting a job. Offering these services led to a need for Kidsters, as most teen mothers have no money for a baby-sitter and often have little parental support due to the high rate of abandonment that comes with being an unwed teen mother. Kidsters gives teen mothers a safe childcare option so that they can fully devote themselves to learning and growing during the LifeCoach

program. It offers academic les-sons, activities, games and crafts that promote growth for each child socially, emotionally, cognitively and physically.

Fristers was formed in 2008 to provide education, access to re-sources, role models and support to teen mothers, within a unique program that takes into consider-ation their age and maturity level as teenagers. Fristers assists with transportation to and from program meetings and provides dinners for mothers and children. More than 600 young mothers and children

are served annually through Fris-ters. All programs and services are free of charge and provided to the community regardless of religion, race, or ethnicity.

In 2010 Orange County had 2,479 teen births within that year alone, ranking Orange County #5 in highest number of total teen births of all California counties.
