ou know those images that stick with you? Those ones, good or bad, that stubbornly refuse to erase themselves from your mind? I had one of those three years ago when prominent breast cancer doctor Ernie Bodai asked a room full of 100 people or so to raise their hands if they had known someone diagnosed with this form of cancer. Nearly everyone raised a hand. I did, too, having lost a grandmother to this disease. Seeing all those hands lifted into the air unnerved me, and the image remains as vivid in my mind today. Really, how could most people not in some way be affected? In 2013, 232,340 women and 2,240 men were diagnosed with breast cancer, and a combined 40,030 people succumbed to their battle, according to
the National Cancer Institute. Bodai the Kaiser doctor behind the breast cancer postage stamp that funds research into the disease noted that breast cancer strikes most American families, yet a cure remains frustratingly out of reach. Notably, more and more emphasis is placed on prevention and early detection, which I think is the right route to take. Especially considering breast cancer no longer afflicts only post-menopausal women, as people in their 20s are now diagnosed with this disease. Scientists may not be able to say with
absolute certainty that environmental toxins are a cause of breast cancer. But doctors know they increase risk. Each of our bodies is contaminated with hundreds of synthetic chemicals linked to cancer, immune-system damage and reproductive and developmental toxicity. We cant control our genetics, but we can make a concerted effort to decrease our intake of toxic chemicals by making smarter consumer choices. Take a look at what local organizations and businesses are doing to raise breast cancer awareness, promote early detection and fund research within the pages of this months View.

The Studio Thinks Pink

BY EILEEN WILSON
f course, every gym and fitness studio strives to help members achieve optimal health. But at The Studio Martial Arts and Fitness, Amitis Pourarian, better known as Master P , and her highly trained staff are committed to helping women (and men) achieve not only their physical goals, but their social and wellness goals, as well. It all starts with a simple statement. We dont ever use the Gword around here, Pourarian said. The Studio, opened more than three years ago, is not a so-called gym. We are very boutique, she said. We know everyone who comes in the door. We know their issues or physical limitations. Master P sees her role as a martial arts expert as secondary to bringing a positive impact to the community: Martial arts is so important to me. I knew this would be my way to give back. The Studio is family oriented, serving adults and youth with a variety of classes and disciplines, and they aim for inclusion. We have a great synergy, Pourarian said. People come in here in their sweats, whatever. Theres no intimidation here. It would be easy to be intimidated by Master P and her

crew of expert martial artists both instructors and seasoned students. But with Pourarians friendly approachability, easy laugh and million-dollar smile, the sixth-degree Taekwondo black belt sets students at ease. The Studio has more than 400 members. You might think
popular class times or favorite instructors would make for elbow-to-elbow group classes. Not so. If a class gets full, we just expand. Classes are never crowded because we try to keep numbers under 20 students per class, Pourarian said. Its almost like personal
training, but without the high prices. So committed is The Studio to providing a relaxed and roomy feel, they just expanded to new digs and quadrupled their space, just a hop, skip and a jump away from their previous location in Granite Bay to Roseville. The classes Bad-Ass Moms and Amitis Cardio Kick-Ass are making a stir with unique combinations of martial arts, selfdefense and life coaching. Tra-
ditional classes such as yoga, Zumba and weights and cardio are offered as well, as are a variety of martial arts classes for both adults and kids (Teeny Tiny Tiger would win if there was an award for the cutest class). Laurie Rich said she had never experienced a close-knit group of women coming together at a gym or fitness center until joining The Studio. She now also works there as the marketing coordinator.

Theres nothing a woman wears more beautifully than confidence. The Studio Martial Arts and Fitness is celebrating a move to a 5,400square-foot facility that allows women (and men) to achieve optimum health and beauty from outside-in. Classes include cardio, kickboxing, martial arts, crosstraining, Zumba, yoga, spin and self-defense. Learning self-defense from a womans point of view is important, said Marketing Director Laurie Rich. Master P offers her own version of kickboxing that is flavored by her Taekwondo knowledge. The new facility is at 8200 Sierra College Blvd., Suite D in Roseville. Membership is monthly, with no commitment. For more information, call (916) 258-5425 or visit www.trainatthestudio.com.

For each person who attends the event, The Studio will make a donation to the Placer Breast Cancer Endowment. This all-volunteer organization is working to raise $1.5 million to fully fund the breast cancer endowed chair at the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center. The nonprofit organization needs $500,000 more to reach its funding goal. The endowment will host its annual Hot Pink Fun Run Oct. 6. The Studio member Julie Walker knows the importance of breast cancer research, and the role that staying fit plays in guarding against cancers. Walker, 56, was diagnosed with breast cancer nearly two decades ago and underwent a mastectomy. In addition, the breast cancer survivor suffered from a fall that injured her arm, shoulder and elbow. Cancer and Walkers additional injuries left her with painful arthritis and a sedentary lifestyle a lifestyle doctors told her she should be satisfied with, as many women her age dont recover well after undergoing multiple surgeries.

But Walker wasnt happy to live life as a self-professed couch potato. I started Taekwondo six months ago, Walker said. I prefer the Wise Warrior Program, an hour-and-a-half Taekwondo class that makes you use your brain and body together. I have improved my flexibility, strength, memory and confidence that I can protect myself. Walker said breast cancer has changed her life. Today, she has learned to be her own advocate and be responsible for her health, which includes her commitment to improve her body and mind with the support of both members and instructors at The Studio.

How does a family heal after the loss of their loved one?
FILE PHOTO GRANITE BAY VIEW
From left, Courtney Gold, Patty Schumacher and Tom Schumacher place roses on the coffin of Marine Lance Cpl. Victor Dew on Oct. 21, 2010. Gold was Dews fiancee, the Schumachers his parents. Dew, 20, was killed in combat in Afghanistan.
hree years after the death of her son and Patty Schumacher still hears new stories about Marine Lance Cpl. Victor Dew, who was killed in combat at 20 years old when a roadside bomb exploded near his vehicle in Afghanistan on Oct. 13, 2010. She soaks up the stories, wanting to hear as many as possible, although she knows she will never know everything her son said and did in his life cut short. There was the story from a young woman noting how Dew had given her a Hello Kitty backpack while they both attended Granite Bay High School. It recently broke, she wrote, and she felt as if shed
lost her friend all over again. But learning of this small gesture of Dews generosity brought his mother comfort. Then, during a shopping trip to Target on Douglas Boulevard in Roseville, where Dew had worked, an employee approached Patty Schumacher, remarking on the good character of her son. How could my son at 18 or 19 years old make such a difference in the life of (this) woman? Patty Schumacher asked. But he did. He touched her. For Dews family, navigating life after their loved ones death has been long and painful. They will always be bereaved. But, as the third anniversary of his passing arrives, the day-today has become easier, the
Hes what drives us. It is because of his death and it is because he lived that we do the things we do.
Patty Schumacher, mother of Lance Cpl. Victor Dew
Schumacher said. It is because of his death and it is because he lived that we do the things we do.
Time Does Help

Dew graduated from Granite Bay High School in 2008, where he played football. He had earned a second-degree black belt in Zen Budokai Jujitsu, a martial art he began practicing at age 6 now his 14-year-old brother, Kyle, trains at the same gym. Dew had wanted to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps since childhood; he was a history and military buff, just like his dad, Tom Schumacher, who had wanted to be an Air Force fighter pilot in his youth but his body said no. He went a different direction, and now works
laughs more often and the pain less overwhelmingly severe. The bad days will always be there. But theyre getting further and further apart. Patty Schumacher had a bad day in early September, as she looked at old photos and realized what was, and what could have been or, in my mind, what should have been. But the family no longer uses words like would have, could have, should have or what if. Hes what drives us, Patty
in the high-tech industry, but he was so proud when Dew joined the Marines. At that point, unless youre military already, you dont really realize what war is about it just didnt dawn on me how serious that area was where they were going until I heard that knock on the door, Tom Schumacher said. Dews mother was also proud of her son, especially when he graduated from boot camp at Camp Pendleton. The pride mixed with fear, and she fell apart when she heard Dew was deploying to the conflictriddled Helmand province of Afghanistan. Were proud of him because he did not choose an easy path and followed his heart and dream, she said. How could I
not be proud of that? One morning, a friend asked her how her son was doing. She hadnt heard from Dew recently, but thought, no news is good news. Looking back at the timing now, she thinks at that very moment he was dead. We werent hit by a 2-by-4, we were knocked over by a freight train, she said. Three weeks into Dews deployment, a roadside bomb killed him and three fellow Marines. The family went from preparing for a wedding to a funeral. Dew had proposed to his girlfriend, Courtney Gold, at Disneyland in August 2010. People commented on the parents strength in the face of such tragedy. But they werent really OK. They were frozen, in shock, unable to fully comprehend what had happened. Patty Schumacher reacted by trying to collect as much information as possible learning about grief, the afterlife, support services for military families and her husband accepted the distraction of work.

killed in the Global War on Terror since 2001, she told them firsthand about being a Gold Star Mom, and relayed stories of five people killed whose gravesites they visited. She wanted them to fully understand that each marble headstone represents a person who served his or her country.
New Type Of Family

Eventually, as time passed, Patty Schumacher would see her young children do something funny and catch herself smiling, and feel bad. But the guilt is less and less. She and her husband watch Kyle and 6-year-old Katie closely for signs of depression. Katie was only 3 years old when Dew died. Kyle is hard to read but he talks about his older brother all the time, recalling memories or wishing he was there. The parents honor Dew each year by placing an advertisement on his birthday and day of his death in the local newspaper, and by visiting the

Like they say, time does help, he said. I think about him every day. Immediately after the knock on the Schumachers front door, they found support in the form of Mark Soto, a long-time high school football coach who had known their son. Soto is
also the father of two activeduty military sons. Soto retired from 18 years coaching football to launch The Honor Group, a nonprofit that brings veterans into schools for assemblies aimed at reviving respect for those who served in the military. Pat-
ty Schumacher is on the organizations advisory board. Over Memorial Day weekend this May, Patty Schumacher traveled with her son Kyles eighth-grade class to Washington, D.C. During a tour of Arlington National Cemetery through Section 60, for people

continued from 9 cemetery where the adults do a tequila shot mom and dad took Dew to Cancun on his 18th birthday, which launched the tradition. At 32 months after Dews death, the parents returned to Mexico, stayed in the same hotel and visited their favorite spots. Over these recent years, as the Schumachers insight into war has deepened, their opinions have changed. These decisions are going to affect your life, and you speak up more and get more involved, Tom Schumacher said. Theyre thankful to Rep. Tom McClintock, who often checks in on them to see how theyre doing. McClintock led a successful effort to get Granite Bays post office renamed in Dews honor in April. The Schumachers wish more people would feel comfortable bringing up stories of their son and not worry if it makes them cry. Thats inevitable.
Inside her Granite Bay home, Patty Schumacher laughs and cries while sharing memories of her son Marine Lance Cpl. Victor Dew.
We will never stop loving the ones who are gone, Patty Schumacher said. They are always a moments thought away. Well never be the same as we were before the knock on that door. Thats the price of loving someone. She has become active in the Tragedy Assistance Programs for Survivors, and has trained to become a TAPS mentor to be
matched with another mother whose child has been killed in combat. When Antelope resident and Oakmont High School graduate Marine Cpl. Gurpreet Singh died in the Helmand province of Afghanistan in June 2011, the Schumachers reached out to their family. To let them know weve been there. Were not much further in the journey, but we will
gladly hold your hand as you walk through it, Patty Schumacher said. More than 2,250 American service members have died as part of the war in Afghanistan, according to the Department of Defense, including 24 men in Dews battalion and another six attached to the group, such as military police or dog handlers. Dews death left his parents with a new kind of family, such as the mom of one of the other three young men killed that fateful October day. They often call each other when theyre having bad days. The people who you meet, you love and enjoy, but you wish you had never met them because of the circumstances, Patty Schumacher said. Would I trade this to have my son back? Yes. But I dont have that option, so Im glad Im surrounded by these people. These mothers recently met the Marine who was ordered to wait 20 minutes for the dust to settle to go to the wreckage from the bomb explosion, and they learned about his guilt.
The women told the young man truthfully that all four Marines had died instantly, and his weight was lifted, Patty Schumacher said. Tom Schumacher said it helps comfort them to keep in contact with Dews military buddies and, unlike past wars such as Vietnam, when men came back isolated and alone, social media keeps them present in one anothers lives. The Schumachers get updates on weddings and pregnancies, and Patty recently traveled to Utah to attend the wedding of one of Dews military friends he was supposed to have served as the best man. On his old MySpace profile, Dews motto was Living life at full speed, and thats what his family is doing: moving forward, and getting back up when they stumble. You can find joy again, Patty Schumacher said. And I choose to live my life that way.

Survivor Thinks Pink

Granite Bay resident pushes legislators to fund research into a cure for cancer
BY EILEEN WILSON
hile wearing pink is an important reminder for self-checks and mammograms during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, Granite Bay resident Laura Tyrrell is taking pink to the next level. Actually, to the highest level: All the way to the nations Capitol, pushing legislators to fund cancer research. Tyrrell is no stranger to cancer. Diagnosed at age 47 more than a decade ago, Tyrrell has undergone cancer treatment not once, but a half-dozen times for breast, ovarian and repeats of peritoneal cancer; a smorgasbord of nasty cells that resist treatment. Currently undergoing a harsh chemotherapy regimen for her third recurrence of peritoneal cancer, Tyrrell refuses to limit her efforts to fund research that is so important. According to the American Cancer Society, more than 171,000 Californians will be diagnosed with cancer this year; more than 25,000 will be new breast cancers. Add every state in the union and more than 1.6 million people will be diagnosed with new cancers, and nearly 600,000 men, women and children will lose their battle with the disease.
PHILIP WOOD GRANITE BAY VIEW
Granite Bay resident Laura Tyrrell has undergone cancer treatment six times and is determined to push legislators to fund cancer research.
The endowed chair hires researchers who can continue working (from the endowments earned interest) until they find a cure. We want to fund this research and help find a cure so our daughters and granddaughters dont have to worry about breast cancer.
Laura Tyrrell
Yes, awareness is important, but what we really need is a cure. Thats where the American Cancer Societys Cancer Action Network comes in. They are the legislative advocacy arm of the Cancer Society, Tyrrell said. We are working at both the state and federal level to do three main things. One of those goals includes restoring federal funding for cancer research at the National Institutes of Health and screening programs at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The second goal is to increase the tobacco tax to discourage youth from smoking and saving
the health care system nearly $65 billion in health costs. Lastly, the network wants to pass the Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act, which proponents say will save health care dollars and help families navigate the health-care system as it relates to chronic disease. Major cuts came with sequestration, Tyrrell said. We are in Washington, D.C., asking to go back to the funding level that was present before sequestration to prioritize whats important. Tyrrell spent several days in Washington, D.C., in early September with fellow delegates
from throughout the nation descending on the Capitol to discuss cancer research with members of the House of Representatives and Senate. Tyrrell represented District 4, and met with Sen. Barbara Boxer and Sen. Dianne Feinsteins legislative directors. She presented information on the Palliative Care and Hospice Education Training Act, which is designed to coordinate care and help patients deal with emotional and physical issues. We dont have enough palliative care professionals right now, she said. One of the bills involves palliative training in nursing programs and medical schools. Tyrrell is also a fundraiser for the Placer Breast Cancer Endowment, a group dedicated to raising money to fully fund the endowed chair at the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center. Traditionally researchers apply for grants, and when their

The endowed chair hires researchers who can continue working (from the endowments earned interest) until they find a cure. We want to fund this research and help find a cure so our daughters and granddaughters dont have to worry about breast cancer. Endowment Vice Chair Teri Munger is a breast cancer survivor, along with founder Carol Garcia, who also serves as Rosevilles vice mayor. We felt so helpless during our treatment, Munger said. We researched and realized that UC Davis was doing the kind of research that could actually find a cure during our lifetime.
head out to the Hot Pink Fun Run, which begins at 9 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 6, at Civic Center on Vernon Street in downtown Roseville. The sixth-annual event benefits the Placer Breast Cancer Endowment, a nonprofit organization committed to fully funding an endowed chair at the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center. The group also raises awareness regarding prevention, early detection and support services during treatment. Since forming in 2005, the group has raised $1 million and needs another $500,000 to meet its goal. The endowments ranks have also grown with 120 active members, led by founder Carol Garcia, who is the vice mayor of Roseville and a breast cancer survivor. (We) expect a record turnout of 2,000 or more participants this year, Garcia said. The proceeds from the run will bring us closer to reaching our $1.5 million goal. To date,

Granite Bay lawyer elected to state bar board
BY LAURA OBRIEN
he daughter of a truck driver and a secretary, Granite Bay lawyer Joanna Mendoza decided at age 5 that she wanted to become a professional when she grew up. Doctors had to remember too many body parts, Mendoza said during an interview at her office off Barton Road. I just decided that a lawyer would be much easier. A solo practitioner specializing in intellectual property law and general and complex busi-
ness litigation, Mendoza, 49, was recently elected to the California State Bars board of trustees. She will represent District 3, spanning 23 Northern California counties, including Placer and Sacramento, upon her swearing-in at the state bars annual meeting this month in San Jose. Just knowing I would be able to jump in and begin tackling issues much quicker because of my background made me even more confident that I should at least submit my candidacy for consideration, Mendoza said.
Granite Bay Attorney Joanna Mendoza was elected to the California State Bar board of trustees for District 3, which represents several Northern California counties, including Placer.
As a trustee, she hopes to institutionalize recent reforms at the state bar, including streamlining the attorney discipline system, which support the bars role as a protector of the public. Mendoza (ne Delk) grew up in Citrus Heights and graduated from Mesa Verde High School as valedictorian in 1982. With the help of scholarships, financial aid and student loans, she completed law school at University of California, Berkeley, after double majoring in political science and economics at University of California, San Diego. A lot of the volunteer time Ive committed I feel like is part of my obligation to give back, said Mendoza, who has served 10 years in leadership positions

continued from 13 among the bars sections, including intellectual property. An arm of the California Supreme Court, the state bar regulates admissions to legal practice and discipline of the more than 240,000 lawyers in California. The bar also ensures access to legal services. Its main goal is public protection for the citizens with regard to attorneys, Mendoza said. Disciplining lawyers accounts for 75 percent of the bars annual budget, mainly funded through membership fees. Part of the money goes to the Client Security Fund, which provides compensation to individuals defrauded by lawyers. Mendoza said the fund took a big hit during the loan modification fraud of the last decade. With the possibility of federal immigration reform, the boards president-elect, Luis Rodriguez, the first Hispanic California bar president, has focused on preventing immigration fraud. We want to make sure that the people are being treated right and theyre not being taken advantage of, Mendoza said. Also currently on tap for the board of trustees are updates in the requirements for admitting lawyers to the bar. Proposed changes would require new attorneys to complete 50 hours of pro bono work and 15 hours of practical experience. What California does because we have such a huge population of lawyers in the country tends to be the standard that gets set for the rest of the country, she said. Along with experience, Mendoza brings a personable yet effective style to her new role as a trustee, said colleague Joel Baiocchi, who maintains a practice in Dutch Flat. I think its great that someone whos so down to earth and has a good grasp of the realities of practice is there looking out

for everyone, said Baiocchi, who met Mendoza at a downtown Sacramento law firm in 1999. The two were co-counsel on a three-month trial regarding a vaccine dispute and have worked together servicing that client since then. Some people are a natural in a courtroom, and I think shes one of them, he said. Their client is Hygieia Biological Laboratories, a Woodlandbased manufacturer of animal
biologics, including vaccines. The company manufactures a rattlesnake vaccine for dogs. Vaccines, unlike drugs, do not have protection, said research veterinarian Dr. Dale Wallis, vice president and half owner of Hygieia. We survive by trade secrets, which are novel ways of doing things. With Mendozas help, Wallis sued and won a trade secret lawsuit involving a vaccine for dairy cows, which spawned fur-
ther litigation. People like Joanna, who know this law inside and out, they can defend a firm and protect this intellectual property from illegitimate attacks, Wallis said. Theyre invaluable. For Mendoza, courtroom work is a dream come true. My ideal would (be) to someday be a judge. That would be awesome, and someday that might happen, Mendoza said. But we shall see.

Drewskis Food Truck Fans Rejoice

Brick-and-mortar eatery not far from home
BY TOBY LEWIS
ne of my favorite food trucks around town is Drewskis Hot Rod Kitchen. Owner Andrew Blaskovich was one of the first in the region to offer gourmet food out of a truck, and a local pioneer in promoting an industry that has clearly evolved from the traditional roach coach. The food truck industry is more popular now than ever, and local events such as Rosevilles Food Truck Mania (held the first Thursday of every month downtown) go a long way to promote the mobile eateries. The problem I have with gourmet food trucks such as Drewskis is not that they offer mobile gourmet food out of a truck for typically very reasonable prices. My problem is once they get you hooked, you have to follow them (usually via social media) wherever they go. Twitter has been the mobile food industrys best asset, as the trucks usually post where they are going to be on any given day. And the fans follow. But what if your favorite food truck only comes around once a month or so and you dont have the time to drive out to Rancho Cordova, West Sacramento or wherever they are on any given day to grab lunch? Luckily, many local food trucks have recognized this dilemma and have recently opened up brick-and-mortar restaurants throughout the
region. Drewskis is no different. Blaskovich recently opened two brick-and-mortar locations, one at McClellan Park (formerly McClellan Air Base) and another at an office park in Folsom. I recently visited Drewskis Folsom location, called Drewskis Hot Rod Caf, for the purposes of this column. Whether you are familiar with Drewskis, a fan of mobile food or not, this place is worth checking out if you are out in the Folsom area. Not far from the Folsom Premium Outlets in an office park off Iron Point Road, Drewskis Hot Rod Caf is just as it sounds a caf in the most traditional sense of the word. First of all, to say the caf is off the beaten path might be an understatement. Office parks tend to be many mobile food trucks bread and butter, so from that perspective, Drewskis Hot Rod Cafs location makes sense. Nevertheless, I passed by the caf several times before finally pulling over and calling Blaskovich to find out where it was (Google Maps was not much help). Blaskovich told me over the phone that he is working on getting decals and better signage for the caf to make it more visible. Still, once I found it, it was not what I expected. The space is modest, to say the least right around 1,000 square feet at best with only two tables, and operates more as a small coffee shop.
Andrew Drewski Blaskovich opened Drewskis Hot Rod Caf in Folsom over the summer, expanding from mobile food to a brick-and-mortar setup.
The space was probably originally zoned for a small, business park-style coffee shop or caf, the kind of place you would stop to get a cup of coffee and a pastry on your way into the office. Now, instead of a puff pastry or muffin, you can get the famous Hemi (slow-roasted pulled pork, macaroni and cheese, grilled onions and cheddar cheese on a grilled French roll $7.50) or the Mustang (Korean braised beef, house-made kimchi, shredded daikon, Sriracha/wasabi aioli with Havarti and Swiss cheese $7.50). While many of staples that made the Drewski truck famous such as the Hemi, the Mustang and others are available, the fact that the space is not permitted for a deep fryer means others are not.

The Drewski Dog (my favorite) a bacon-wrapped all-beef hot dog with cheddar cheese, grilled onions and Sriracha/wasabi aioli on a hoagie roll is also not available. All of the other sandwiches and offerings for which Blaskovich has made a name for himself are available, however, along with several other items not served on the truck. Cold sandwiches, such as a turkey club, BLT, ham and Swiss and egg salad, are served along with housemade salads, fruit, pastries, candy and yogurt. Coffee drinks, bottled sodas and Drewskis sweet mint iced tea are also available. The space is designed like a hot rod garage with an auto shop feel. The coffee and tea sit atop two Crafts-

made on a single Panini press might account for this. On my visit, I tried the aforementioned Mustang sandwich, as well as the Prius (sliced Granny Smith apples, wildflower honey, smoked almonds and melted Brie cheese on a multi-grain wheat bread $7.50). While I would like to have tried more, the two large sandwiches were about all my stomach could handle. I intended to just try a few bites of each, but each sandwich was so delicious, I could not help but to indulge. The Mustang had a very

The apples in the Prius added a nice sweetness to go with the crunchy, smoky almonds and the brie added a nice gooey texture. Id say this place is worth a visit if you are a fan of Drewskis truck and simply dont have time to chase it down wherever it may be. Its also worth a visit if you crave the flavors of Drewskis truck and want to experience a lighter, dare I say, healthier version.

Recipe of the Month...Light Tomato & Basil Infusion over Chicken

Who doesnt love a delicious Italian flavored dish? With just a few ingredients, you can make this simple dish any night of the week but it is elegant enough to serve as a special meal. For a side, I like to have a Rocket salad Arugula with minced walnuts, crumbled Bleu cheese and lemon vinaigrette. Mix it up: substitute chicken for a white fish such as sole or halibut. Happy eating. INGREDIENTS: 4 tablespoons olive oil 4 garlic cloves, minced 4 fresh tomatoes, medium-sized, finely diced, about 2 cups (you can substitute with canned if needed) 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (do not used dried) 1/2 cup white wine or chicken broth 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning 1/2 tsp. each salt and pepper 4 T. fresh and finely grated Parmesan cheese 4 boneless, chicken breasts, 4 oz. each, seasoned with salt and pepper
Makes 4 Servings
Nutritional Value: Each serving contains approximately 300 calories, 35 grams of protein, 16 grams of fat and 2 grams of carbohydrates.
INSTRUCTIONS: Have all the ingredients prepared and ready before you start cooking, including chicken. FOR THE SAUCE:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. In a saut pan, add the olive oil and heat for about one minute over medium temperature. Add the garlic and saut for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly do not let garlic burn. Add the fresh basil and continue stirring for another 30 seconds. Reduce heat, add the chopped tomatoes and cover with a lid and simmer for about five minutes, stirring often, until the tomatoes cook down to a saucy consistency. Mix in 1 tsp. of Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Add the white wine (or chicken broth) and bring to a low-boil for about a minute. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, cover the sauce with lid and let simmer and thicken. Continue to simmer on low while you cook the chicken breasts. If needed, add a bit of hot water to the sauce a little at a time to reconstitute, no more than 1/2 cup.
FOR THE CHICKEN:

Grill the chicken in a skillet with a little canola or grape seed oil until lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes on each side. I like to se a grill press when cooking chicken inside.
ASSEMBLY:
Place each chicken breast on a dinner plate or salad -style bowl. Put about 1/2 cup of the sauce atop each chicken breast and sprinkle with a little Parmesan cheese if desired. Paula Hendricks, BS, Nutritionist-C

Haruka T Is Here
Courtney Richardson, left, and Blaise Nasri dine on sushi at Haruka Sushi Bar in Granite Bay.
BY CHERISE HENRY
New family-friendly restaurant specializes in exotic sushi offerings
he Tsui family didnt take it slow when it came to getting the work done to open their new Granite Bay restaurant. Haruka Sushi Bar opened its doors July 5 after a whirlwind six months of finding the vacant location, signing the lease and immediately jumping into a complete interior remodel project and training all new employees. Weve been looking to open another restaurant for a few years, but just couldnt find a good location, said Bill Tsui, Haruka Sushi Bar manager and chef. We found out this place became available through one of our chefs and we jumped on top of it. It just all fell into place.
Family owned and operated since 2007, Haruka Sushi Bar expanded its business to open a second restaurant locally, taking over the former Akebono restaurant on Auburn-Folsom Road. Bill Tsuis mother and father, Shuk Yee Tsui Momma and Cheuck Tsui, respectively, are the owners and primary sushi chefs for both Haruka Sushi Bar locations. Brother David Tsui and sister Angela Tsui, along with family friend Jonathan Ong, also work as managers and employees of the restaurants. I always have a smile on my face, said Shuk Yee Tsui. I love what I do and love working with my family every day. The Tsui family owns and operates the original Haruka Sushi Bar in Lodi, where the eatery has been open for six

Beyond The Label
Whats really inside the food we eat?

BY CHRIS GREENWOOD
Nutritionist Paula Hendricks prepares her tomato basil fusion by shredding parmesan cheese.
n response to the rising obesity epidemic plaguing the United States, people are scrambling to figure out the latest diet that will help them shed pounds and live healthier lives. This inevitably leads to the search for food products labeled natural and organic, but sometimes these items arent all they seem when it comes to achieving the goals of losing weight and being healthy. Many consumers often neglect to read past these labels, which can lead to only a partial understanding of the food we eat. Roseville resident Gopal Kapur is the founder of Family Green Survival, a public service organization devoted to providing healthy nutrition practices to combat obesity
alongside aiding lowincome families and people suffering from food insecurity. He is particularly concerned with the use of the word natural on food items and the reliance of Americans on packaged meals. Our food is being loaded up with more and more chemicals, Kapur said. All processed, packaged food has to be treated with chemicals to keep them safe from E. coli Chemicals that can be found by researchers that are harmful to our immune system cause obesity, hypertension and heart disease. These chemicals, he said, are a source of concern for anybody who wants to eat healthy, and companies often try to trick people into consuming their falsely labeled health items. On

NUTRITION:
Research is key to make a diet work
Nutritionist Paula Hendricks prepares to dine on a simple meal of basil, tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, parmesan and wine with chicken. She calls the dish tomato basil fusion.
continued from 21 Kapurs site, he lists more than 200 chemicals typically found in processed foods and fast foods. In July, PepsiCo reached a $9 million settlement in a lawsuit that determined their Naked Juice was mislabeled as natural. PepsiCo said it used an added boost of vitamins for their drinks, but these were found to be synthetically created. People believe that things that are organically claimed are healthy, Kapur said. All organic processed meats, anything labeled organic, have more nitrates than nonorganic meats. People will more often go for the claims and labels, than actually read the ingredients. So, just how do consumers avoid harmful chemicals and unclear labeling?
Paula Hendricks, a Granite Bay-based nutritionist and wellness consultant, said dieting is simple. Her first piece of advice: Dont fall for the gimmicks or fad diets. And do your research. Also, watch your carbohydrates intake. Since our bodies have a low tolerance to carbohydrates, eating them in excess of your bodys threshold requires the pancreas to pump large amounts of insulin into the bloodstream to control the sugar consumed, Hendricks said. Over time, the repeated strain on the pancreas can lead to diabetes, heart disease and a litany of other illnesses, according to Hendricks. Naturally, fruits and vegetables are healthy alternatives to processed foods. But they pose potential issues, too.

We recommend our patients stay away from most fruits because it leads to higher blood sugar levels, Hendricks said. With the rising incidence of diabetes in children and adults today, fruit intake should be kept to a minimum. As for the best way to avoid potentially deceptive store labels? Grow produce in your own backyard garden or buy
fresh veggies from a local farmers market. These fruits and vegetables will be available at their peak times, yielding the best taste and most abundant nutrients. Its a healthy way to enjoy a variety of flavors at their most tasty and nutritious time, Hendricks said. Otherwise, they have been picked too early and the nutrients they provide may not be optimum.
Tomato basil fusion, over chicken, is a simple quick meal to make. Ingredients include basil, tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, parmesan and wine with chicken.

We received several inquiries and served a few families in the first couple months of opening! I chose Gold Country Media for my advertising because of their large circulation in the areas I serve. The quality of the ad and the appearance of the ad make my campaign successful! We do other print advertising but the newspaper ads are always consistent. I would recommend advertising with Gold Country Media, the sales staff is easy to work with and they will even customize your ad for you. They gave us many options to choose from and they always seem to have our best interest in mind.

Revolution In The Cafeteria

Eureka Union School District contracts with Revolution Foods for school lunches
BY SENA CHRISTIAN
he trustees of the Eureka Union School District board didnt mince words: The lunches served in their schools were subpar. The food didnt reflect the growing adoption of healthy, tasty foods by school districts across the nation, as educators recognize that what students put in their bellies fuels their brains and bodies to support better learning in the classroom. In June, the board voted 4-1 to welcome students back to school with a special
treat: healthy food. The district entered into an agreement with Revolution Foods to provide meals with seasonal fresh produce, and entrees with all-natural ingredients and no artificial colors, high-fructose corn syrup flavors or preservatives. Revolution Foods will supply breakfast, lunch and snacks in compliance with updated nutrition standards established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for its National School Lunch Program that include more fruits, vegetables and whole

grains, and less sodium, saturated and trans fats in meals. The district has contracted with Revolution Foods for meals only; not the associated costs of operating or staffing a school lunch program. The meals are purchased at a cost of $2.72 to $3.02, depending upon the volume purchased, according to Superintendent Linda Rooney. Trustee Eric Bose cast the dissenting vote. He voted no, he said, primarily because the program will likely increase the districts annual costs by $200,000 to $400,000 a year. The increased costs, he said, will reverse the districts previous success in balancing its budget. Most important, I couldnt support increasing our spending in the face of our ongoing revenue problems
while asking our employees to sacrifice, while also asking families to donate more money, Bose said. Rooney publicly praised the change, as did Trustee Andy Sheehy, who wrote in an email to parents that the district is at the forefront yet again, in that Eureka is the first in the greater Sacramento area that has contracted with (Revolution Foods) districtwide. Sheehy met with a representative from the Bay Areabased company last year through his job with United Way and visited a charter school in Sacramento that served Revolution Foods lunches. What I saw was incredible, Sheehy wrote. The food was healthy, yet the kids were actually eating and enjoying it. He learned that one of the biggest changes the charter school experienced was a reduction in waste kids actually ate this new food.

uch has been made of Granite Bays stunning estates. From traditional to Tuscan, from Mediterranean to modern, nearly every home in Granite Bay is beautiful in its own way. But this true retreat on Chelshire Downs Road is something special. Its rare that a home this private, this perfectly designed and this perfectly outfitted with the best custom features, while maintaining a casual elegance, goes on the market. This home would be a rare find in any city. A gated estate, the 2.7 acres have been carefully and meticulously planned and executed touches like a bocce ball court, a pitching wedge and a putting green outfit this home, which is meant
for both casual and lavish entertaining. Start with the outdoor kitchen. The kitchen is larger than the same space in most homes, and more expensively outfitted. Rugged-cut granite meets modern stainless in the outdoor kitchen that includes everything, even a dishwasher. The backyard is a sight to behold reminiscent of a boutique Napa Valley hotel, the upscale space includes a formal 25-by-50-foot pool, hot tub, a builtin fire pit and a dramatic water feature towering above it all.

The kitchen in this home has all the drama you would expect, yet has unpretentious style. The kitchen is a casual mix of furniture-like pieces the outer cabinets a distressed dark wood, the huge center island a natural wood with a distressed look. All surfaces are stunning rusty-hued granite with rich cream swirls, and the kitchen includes every top-of-the-line appliance dual ovens, a professional-grade cook top with six burners and griddle, a
warming drawer, two Bosch dishwashers, a compactor and a built-in refrigerator and freezer all blend seamlessly with the homes dcor. Ceilings in the great room are more than 30 feet high an amazing showcase of the estates grounds in view. The room includes a pre-cast fireplace from floor to ceiling, which is just the right scale for the room. But the room never feels oversized. A full bar area with views and pass-through access to the extensive covered loggia at the rear of the home meld outdoor and indoor living seamlessly. The bedrooms in this home are delightfully spa-like. The master suite includes two sepa-
rate rooms housing a custom fireplace that combines wood, travertine and custom iron for a one-of-a-kind look. The master bath includes a ceiling-fed infinity tub and a separate shower with dual rain heads. The space includes dual vanities with extensive makeup area, vaulted ceilings and skylights. The closet is a fashionistas dream oversized, floor-toceiling built-ins with great lighting, including a large skylight. But additional bedrooms in the home will make for very happy guests, as well. All include en-suite baths outfitted in brilliant white crafted wood and gray with white granite spa-like retreats, each of them. The home includes far too many custom features to list. Double crown molding, a music room, a temperature-controlled wine cellar and a solar array that brings energy costs down by 75 percent, just to name a few. This rare estate offers a truly resort-like experience. It doesnt get any better than this.

BY SCOTT THOMAS ANDERSON
very person who lives long enough faces the twilight years, but there are ways to make that twilight glow with special experiences rather then fall dim with curtains of sedation and loneliness. Nurse Next Door, an international care company that recently moved into Granite Bay, believes late-life seniors can still find meaningful interactions and doses of daily vitality as long as they are surrounded by the right people. Nurse Next Door is an inhome care service for elderly residents and people with special needs. A major presence in Canada, it recently expanded into Pennsylvania, California and Texas. Dave Moeller brought the franchise to Granite Bay in May. Moeller is no stranger to working with elderly clients. In 2008, he opened Silver Lining Senior Transportation, a Sacramento-based ride service for people who can no longer drive. Being involved with Silver
Nurse Next Door

Company brings invested touch to senior care
Location: 9875 Village Center Drive, Granite Bay Info: (916) 415-2044
Dave Moeller is the general manager of Nurse Next Door, serving clients in Granite Bay, Roseville, Rocklin and Loomis.
Lining made me realize that even hours at a time make a huge difference in peoples lives, Moeller said. It truly started to change my perspective. I was getting a lot of fulfillment out of the care industry, but I wanted to be more directly involved. Moeller sold Silver Lining last year and began the process of
partnering with Nurse Next Door. He saw statistics that suggest nearly a quarter of Placer Countys population will be over the age of 65 by 2030, and decided to open his branch in Granite Bay. Nurse Next Door currently offers in-home, non-medical care. It expects to add full medical services to its repertoire in
the near future. For now, Moellers staff concentrates on helping seniors with basic living needs and assisting families with sudden hospital discharges after strokes and other life-altering medical events. It also offers enhanced care, such as bathing, dressing and medical reminders. Moeller said what makes
Nurse Next Door stand out is its emphasis on hiring caregivers with a real passion for interacting with seniors. We focus on a positive, caring approach, Moeller said. We dont look at it as a taskoriented job. Its about making lives better through bringing happiness and fulfillment. Nurse Next Door caregiver Elena Cortez said the company focuses on finding the right client-caregiver pairing. When someone waits for you to arrive, and is genuinely happy to see you, its more like dropping by to check on family, she said. Bringing a smile to a clients face can require thinking outside the box. Last year, an English client of another Nurse Next Door branch began talking about how he wanted to go back to the United Kingdom one last time. That wasnt possible. So, his caretakers took him to see the James Bond film Skyfall, and then spent the rest of the evening at an old-fashioned British pub.

leven years after lending his name to Major League Baseball history during the 2002 World Series, a young Granite Bay resident now shines in a national spotlight separate from that of his celebrated father Dusty Baker. Now 14, Darren Baker holds a place on the National Team Identification Series local squad. Last year, Id hit some balls and theyd be caught by the outfield, and now theyre going over their heads, said Darren, who has grown in prominence since the incident he was involved in during Game 5 of the World Series between the San Francisco Giants and Anaheim Angels. Although he said he does not remember the 2002 episode in which former Giants first baseman J.T. Snow saved the then 3-year-old from

nearly being run over at home plate, his childhood memories are full of ballpark moments when his father managed the Giants and later the Chicago Cubs. The episode, which the young Baker has watched on video, spawned the Darren Baker Rule, which requires all MLB batboys to be at least 14 years of age. But now, Darren focuses on becoming a collegiate and professional athlete. Coach Adam Farb selected him for the Identification Team after Darren competed in a tournament in Manteca and
an All Star game at UC Berkeley. The NTIS team played in September where players were invited to next Julys 15-Under team trials. Darren, who is recovering from an elbow injury, missed that tournament but will have another opportunity when the 15U team trials continue in the USA baseball championships in Arizona next June. From the 15U team trials, the 15U USA National Team will be formed to play abroad. Darren recently started his freshman year at Jesuit High School. He plans to try out for basketball and baseball. He said he is better at baseball, but hopes to also letter as a point guard. Baseball tryouts begin in February. When he was 4, Darren Baker began his baseball career in Tee Ball in Chicago.

He now plays second base and some outfield. In August 2012, he became a member of the USA Baseball National Team Developmental Program. He trained for a week at the USA Baseball Training Facility in Cary, N.C. He recently returned from playing in the national Perfect Games Tournament in Florida, where he played seven games in five days. He made the All Star team, but suffered an elbow injury that now has him temporarily sidelined. Like I told him, hes ahead of me at that age. I was never making all-star teams. I was always an alternate on the all-star team. Hes not intimidated being in the big-kid stadium, Dusty Baker said.

Hes a quality kid, even outside the baseball field, which is more important than being a baseball player, said Darrens coach Chris Stiltner. His coach Brian Market admires how he supports his teammates and shows them respect. He takes (his) coachs advice to heart and really tries it. Its been really nice, especially from his profile, said Market, coach of the 13U and 14U NorCal Black Sox.

Pratibha Patel, dance instructor
BY ANNE STOKES
ratibha Patel is bringing Indian culture to Granite Bay in the form of Kathak, a dance form more than 2,000 years old. Patel, who has been teaching for 14 years, recently brought her Kathak expertise to the Granite Bay Dance Connection studio. Kathak is a classical North Indian dance that combines cultural elements from Muslim and Hindu influences. Its name is derived from katha, meaning story, and dancers are known as kathakas, or storytellers. Dancers layer movement, rhythm and singing to narrate historical epochs of Indian culture. I want (students) to at least feel joy and happiness through movement, Patel said. Its a way for them to connect with their culture and tradition outside of what theyd be eating. This is kind of like meditation in motion. Its a way of connecting with yourself spiritually, or understanding yourself physically better through dance. Its a way for them to connect to their culture and traditions. Kathak is held at Dance Connection studio, 6931 Douglas Blvd. in Granite Bay.

The best avoidance strategy is to sincerely thank the sugarpusher for the gift, tell them you wish you could eat it, but you need to cut back on sugar.
If I were to award a single food item with the title Fastest Way To Pack On The Pounds, hands down the winner would be refined sugar.
Try Dark Chocolate
For those moments when your sweet tooth is relentlessly badgering you for something sweet,
ditch the super-sugary candies and stick with a small square of very dark chocolate. Chocolate that is 70 percent or higher in cocoa content should be the only candy kept on hand. The benefit of the cocoa, in addition to the lowered sugar content, makes dark chocolate an occasionally justifiable treat.
Steer Clear Of Saboteurs

The sad truth is that people in your life will try
intake of refined sugars, youll find your tolerance for sugar decrease. This means something that didnt taste sweet before say a green apple now has uncanny depths of sweetness. Your sweet receptors are becoming more finely tuned, now that youre not overwhelming your palate with sickly sweet refined sugar.
Stick With Fruit

Whats sweet, colorful and comes in hundreds of flavors? Organic, seasonal, fresh fruit, of course! As you remove refined sugar from your life, feel free to add in some natural sugar by way of fresh, local fruit. Its amazing how satisfyingly sweet fruit is its truly natures candy.
Work Out Like You Mean It

A regular, challenging exercise routine will not only get you into amazing shape, it also reduces your cravings for sugar. The endorphin rush brought on by vigorous exercise is an even more powerful feel-good-feeling than pleasure obtained from indulging in sugary foods. The all-or-nothing ap-
proach usually doesnt work when trying to eliminate refined sugars from meals and snacks. This approach will likely set one up for failure. A better approach may be to eliminate one frequently consumed food item or drink a week and then eliminate another when you kicked the habit of the previous one. And dont forget sugars dirty little secrets: It promotes rapid fat storage, weakens your immune system, causes insulin resistance, is as addictive as hard drugs, speeds up the aging process, raises your risk of disease and contains empty calories.

f you visit a Kaiser Permanente facility in and around Roseville on any given Wednesday, youll notice a sea of pink. Its unmistakable. Physicians, nurses and other staff members are encouraged to wear pink clothing once a week, all year round, to raise awareness about breast cancer. Our hope is that by raising curiosity about why were dressed in pink, we inspire women who are overdue for mammograms to walk down the hall, or into the neighboring building, to show up for their screening, no appointment necessary. Its convenient, its fast, its critically important. We are sending a message to women and their loved ones: Mammography screenings could be a matter of life and death. Thankfully, thats also
A Matter Of Life Or Death

the message we hear a lot about each October, during national Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Dr. Chris More than Palkowski 230,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer are diagnosed annually, and about 40,000 women die from the disease every year, according to the American Cancer Society. Breast cancer usually has no obvious symptoms when the tumor is small and most treatable, so it becomes vitally important to be screened; digital imaging can detect a tumor before a lump can be felt. If found early enough, breast cancer can often be successfully treated, and it is not always necessary to remove the breast. Another advantage of early detection is women who need treatment will have more time to discuss options with their provider and their loved ones. Women who have had breast cancer are living longer than ever, due to early detection, advanced technology and early treatment. In fact, an estimated 3 million women were breast cancer survivors in 2012, and the number is expected to increase to 3.8 million by 2022. Thats why Kaiser Permanente in Roseville and Sacramento just over a year ago established the Breast Cancer Survivorship Institute, which helps members ease the transition from being a cancer patient to cancer survivor. Typically, women who are diagnosed with breast cancer will endure months of radiation or chemotherapy. Once they are declared cancer-free by an oncologist or radiation oncologist, the survivors are likely to return to being patients of their primary care provider. But the institute adds a treatment plan between the specialists and the primary care physician. This way, we can explain to women how to lessen their chances of recurrence, and offer classes and support. The institute is led by Dr. Ernie Bodai, a longtime breast cancer surgeon who also is a well-known advocate for cancer research. He is the founder of the Breast Cancer Research Stamp, which has raised more than $93 million through the sales of nearly 1 billion stamps. There is still no sure way to prevent breast cancer, espe-
cially for women with a strong family history of the disease, but there are certain things every woman can do to lessen her risk and maintain good health. Its especially important to maintain a Body Mass Index of less than 30, exercise regularly, reduce stress, avoid tobacco products, avoid harmful UV exposure and eat a wellbalanced diet. And once again, early detection is critical. Its been shown that mammograms can reduce the risk of mortality from breast cancer by about 30 percent. And thats a good enough reason for me to wear my pink shirt on Wednesdays.

tion is about 10 percent words and 90 percent body language, tone and emotion. Its not what you say, but how you say it. Horses do not respond to talking and verbal reasoning. As prey animals, they are always alert to signs of stress and emotional tension, whether they be with their herd or humans. Horses mirror the humans emotional state and respond to the humans tension as they approach; whether it feels safe, predatory or dangerous. Horses respond to you, as you are in that moment. They are the perfect assistant therapists because they are truly non-judgmental and unconditionally accept you as you are. They do not care about your advanced education, physical beauty, wealth or social status. The horses behavior and reactions provide a dramatic, yet gentle and clear message, to the client about his or her approach and behavior when faced with a challenge. Unlike traditional talking therapy, equine-assisted psychotherapy/coaching helps the client develop problem-solving skills by becoming more aware of their emotional and physical reactions. When the client enters the arena with the horses (no riding), they immediately experience a new level of openness and vulnerability and begin making an unconscious shift from their logical left, language-based brain to their creative, problemsolving, right brain. What any equine assisted coach will tell you is that who you are in the arena with the horse is who you are everywhere. How you do anything is how you do everything. Only by realizing and challenging old stories and patterns can you move forward. Equineassisted coaching helps the client physically and emotionally experience the way their old patterns of communication and behavior prevent success in relationships, careers, personal goals and passions. The horse and clients responses to each other help the therapist/coach understand how the client approaches lifes challenges outside of the arena. Was their request to the horse clear, confusing, dominant or inviting? After the exercise, the individual, entire group or family discusses what happened during the exercise. The coach uses these comments and reactions to reflect back on the horses responses. Often clients say something like: When the horse refused to move, I thought, This is exactly how I feel when I dont know what my (father, boss, partner, etc.) wants from me. I dig in and refuse to move. The coach discusses how the exercise represents similar challenges in the clients life, and then reflects on what they needed in order to get the response they wanted from the horse. Research supports that positive neurochemical and physiological changes naturally take place in the human and horse as they interact. The mind-body connection helps the client positively embed the emotional changes they experience during the equineassisted coaching session. It is not uncommon, six months after an equineassisted session, that the client recalls this experience, draws from their past positive, emotional success and uses what they learned to face the current challenge. This therapy is an effective way to help people address challenges, allowing them to be vulnerable and effectively work through issues and problem solve in a playful, nonthreatening way.

Because, as an experiential therapy, equine-assisted psychotherapy/coaching bypasses the cognitive, verbal left brain prone to rationalizations, arguments and denials and shifts the clients focus to their creative right brain helping them quickly get to the core of the problem. The more the client uses their creativity and emotional responses during the exercise, the faster they find solutions for nagging, seemingly unsolvable problems. Human communica-

Medicare: An Enigma And A Solution

Americans even those who have diligently saved for their golden years are not prepared for the reality of health care costs in retirement and dont really understand how Medicare works, says John Carter, president of Nationwide Financial Distributors, Inc. According to a recent survey done by Nationwide, nearly half of soonto-be-retired, high-networth Americans are terrified of what health care costs may do to their retirement plans, and nearly three in four say health care costs going out of control is among their top retirement fears.

An annual deductible of $1,184 per benefit period applies for 2013. After the first 60 days, there is a cost per day of coverage provided and no coverage is provided after the 150th day.
Medical Insurance (Part B): Covers doctors visits,

in brief EUSD On Top Again

Eureka Union School District once again ranks first on API scores compared to other districts throughout Placer County. The scores were released in late August, with the Eureka district earning 911. All seven schools in the district received a score of 884 or higher, and throughout the district, a total of 105 perfect scores were achieved by students on Content Standards Tests. EUSDs keen focus upon instructional excellence, unparalleled student support, Challenge 21, 21st Century skill development and California Common Core State Standards implementation directly impact these impressive results, Superintendent Linda Rooney wrote in a press release. Teachers use specific performance targets for all students, and children are
individually identified to receive ongoing and targeted intervention services, as needed. Rooney said the districts embrace of Professional Learning Communities allows teachers to strategically analyze individual student needs, develop goals for progress, coordinate instruction and administer common student assessments. Rooney also credits the nonprofit Eureka Schools Foundation and Parent Teacher Clubs with directly supporting enrichment programs, such as library and technology, music, physical education, foreign languages and more. The districts commitment to low class sizes also enhances opportunities for our teachers to identify the needs and strengths of each and every student, Rooney said in the release.

Roseville family explores Black Chasm Cavern

BY LAURA OBRIEN
Cave Dwellers
ard, elemental, rock was one of my kids first words. As they got older, my budding scientists wanted to know more about this everyday object. We checked out books on gems from the library. We tried making crystals at home with unimpressive results. I thought my kids would enjoy an adventure to Black Chasm Cavern in Amador County. At less than a twohours drive away from our home in Roseville, the distance was perfect for a family day trip. It turns out, my kids were somewhat fearful of the cave, but the gemstone mining also offered there was a huge hit. After touring the cave, we further enjoyed rocks, nature and learning about Miwok Indian life at nearby Indian Grinding Rock State Historic Park, truly worth a trip in itself. On a cool and rainy September day, we headed for Volcano, home of Black Chasm Cavern. Cruising east on Jackson Drive (Highway 16) past crispy fields, black cows and old barns, we congratulated ourselves on trying something new. This was our first trip to Amador County, and it felt good being on an adventure. After turning south onto Highway 49, we passed the Gold Rush settlements of Drytown and, a few minutes later, Jackson. From there, the cave was about 10 miles away, off Pine Grove-Volcano Road, along which oak trees gave way to the roads namesake pines as we headed down a moderately steep, but paved, hill to Black Chasm Cavern. Opened in 1976, Black Chasm Cavern is a National Natural Landmark, a National
Park Service program recognizing privately held properties with outstanding geological features. Cave and Mine Adventures owns Black Chasm, along with two other caves located farther south off Highway 49: California Cavern, a State Historic Landmark originally named Mammoth Cave in 1850, and Moaning Cavern Park. Gold miners first discovered Black Chasm and operated cave tours there for about 10 years, according to our tour guide. Organized touring then ceased for about 100 years, until the cave obtained government recognition. Although there are possible lunch spots in Jackson, we opted for a picnic lunch at tables next to the caverns small parking lot while waiting for our scheduled tour departure. My kids soon clamored for the gemstone mining, a fun and cheap activity available just outside the gift shop. I split a bag of what looked like dirt among my three little ones. In a few seconds, they uncovered rose quartz and pyrite pieces (fools gold), among other gems, using screen-bottomed boxes in a system of mining flumes. Clutching their booty, they now were ready to brave the cavern. No one ever died in the cave, our tour guide half-joked as our group of 22 adventurers gathered outside its nondescript entrance. That was little consolation to my young kids, who nevertheless kept their cool as we headed into the cave. At the first stair landing, I began hearing intermittent whimpers from my kids. We continued down the sturdy stairway across a seemingly bottomless expanse where a tiny aquamarine lake shone far below us.
Visitors to Black Chasm Cavern in Volcano are taken deep into an ancient cave to marvel at rock formations.
LAURA OBRIEN GRANITE BAY VIEW
Gradually, the caves splendors and the flights of my kids imaginations distracted them as we viewed the stalactite and stalagmite formations, as well as helictite, a sparkly stalactite that resembles strands of curly hair, for which Black Chasm is renowned. We saw formations resembling Lady and the Tramp, a dragon and Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Even my husband was wowed. Later, safely back in the car, the kids confessed their favorite part was the gemstone mining. Counting that as a score for Mommy, we drove just a few minutes back up the road toward Indian Grinding Rock
State Historic Park. I had heard about the park through my coverage of the Maidu Museum and Historic Site in Roseville, which also boasts grinding rocks. Indian Grinding Rock SHP, dedicated in 1968, contains the largest number of grinding holes in North America with 1,185 mortar cups. The park was a homeland of the Northern Sierra Miwok. We self-toured the immaculate 135-acre state park since the onsite Chawse Regional Indian Museum was closed. My kids ran into and out of the tepee-shaped bark houses of the reconstructed Miwok village. The park also features a
ceremonial roundhouse, Indian game fields, covered picnic tables and seasonal campsites, available on a first-come, firstserved basis. The California Department of Parks and Recreation cooperates with Native Americans in the parks development, according to the state parks website. I gloried under the enormous oak trees. An interpretive sign said some may date prior to the Gold Rush, when Native Americans still lived in the area. One easily imagines Miwok of the past bringing gathered acorns in baskets to the scores of wells in the marble grinding rocks.

Life On The Patch Isnt A Picnic

We have people who have been coming for all five years and come back every year. ing out the pumpkins, having just as much fun as the kids do. Its something that everybody can do together.
What is life like on the farm?
ara Moore grew up on the family farm, Rickey Ranch, in Granite Bay. Today, the Granite Bay native divides her time among raising her four boys, hanging out with her husband, working a fulltime job, attending night school and helping out at the ranch, which transforms into a pumpkin patch during fall each year.
You said you grew up on the family farm. Tell me a little about that.
They are out there running and playing, riding bikes, getting dirty and being kids again.
You also have a full-time day job. You must be really busy this time of year.
once, but thats OK. It keeps life interesting.

What is life like on the farm during the off-season?
What do you think it is about a pumpkin patch? Why do people like to go to them?
It was always the Rickey Ranch, my familys ranch. My Uncle Allen and Aunt Sherry lived there. They have over 180 acres that has been familyowned since the early 1900s. We had a pond out there; we used to fish out of the pond. We would ride quads and dirt bikes all over the property, and camp. It was a really fun place to grow up. So, would you say you grew up with a love of the outdoors? Yeah, definitely. My cousin Aaron, who still lives out at the ranch, and his sister Sabrina, we were all really close, so I was out there all the time with them.
You just started the pumpkin patch five years ago. Why?
You know, I dont know. I think for ours, what we hear from a lot of people is because it is so small it makes it very family-oriented. Everyone who is involved with it is somehow related in the family. Its not a commercialized ranch or pumpkin patch. Its more like, Bring the family. Lets hang out. It really brings families back together. We see parents out there pick-
It is fun. It is definitely a lot of hard work. My cousin Aaron works from sun up to sun down and sometimes more than that. Its definitely a lot of fun in that we go out and well be pulling all the vines from where the pumpkins grow, but well have the sprinklers on while we are doing it. So, we are getting soaking wet, playing in the mud a little bit. Its definitely a slower pace out there, the kids are not as much into the video games.
I am. I work full-time in residential property management. And then Im also taking classes at night right now to finish getting my real estate license.
Wow, you are busy.
Yeah, Im busy. I dont know why I decided to do it all at
Everything gets packed up and put away. We used to do wine grapes. My husband has a vineyard out there and for many years we grew grapes and sold them to different wineries in the area. But, as of the last year or two, he doesnt do that as much. We also raise cattle, so the cattle is taken care of all year long. Weve gotten more involved with growing fruits and vegetables, and trying to get involved with PlacerGROWN as part of the network of local farms. Last year, we were on the farm tour as one of the local farms that is still around and actually working as an active farm.
So it is a real ranch.
Yes, definitely.
Is fall your favorite time of year?
It is for sure. Its so fun out there. We love to get ready to have everybody come out to the pumpkin patch. Especially as the weather cools, and everything starts to turn green and all the leaves change colors, it makes it very fun out there.

We had talked about it for many years, and when my uncle passed away, my cousin Aaron started being the sole person in charge of the Rickey Ranch. He decided it was time we try it out and see how it goes. So, we planted some pumpkins and kind of took it from there. Its been really great. Its gotten a little bit bigger every year.
