VOTE NOVEMBER 5 th ! For Redwood Ct Councl, RSCA Endorses:
* Jeff GeeCouncil Member & Vice-Mayor
* John Sebert
Council Member
* Dane Howardformer Council Member
After meeting and listening to all six Candidates atthe Shores forum on September 4th, the Board ofRSCA has endorsed and strongly encouragesRedwood Shores voters to elect these three can-didates to the three open seats on the RedwoodCity Council.
Experience is especially important as the Cityfaces both budgetary and quality-of-service chal-lenges.
We feel that the current Council and City govern-ment are working and committed to serving all oftheir communities, so we see every reason to re-elect the two incumbent Council Members. Wealso feel that Ms. Howard’s previous Councilexperience will benefit the City over the next fouryears.
For the Belmont-Redwood Shores Dstrct Board of Trustees & Parcel Ta Measure R:RSCA decided to consider endorsements of candidates for the Belmont Redwood Shores School Districtand to decide a position on Measure R (the new parcel tax) ONLY after we had heard from all seven can-didates on September 23rd. (he Belmont-Redwood Shores PTA Council and RSCA co-sponsored a forumthat Monday evening to allow the public to meet and hear all seven candidates address District issues andconcerns at one time.
We will send an email mid-October on any endorsements we decide, or you can look for our endorsementsin the November PILOT.

Presdent’s Memo for September 2013 by Harris Rogers
Be a Voter! Shores residents are among the most civic-minded
people in this local area. Being a voter is one of the
most basic ways each of us exercise our most funda-
mental right to express our opinions about our localgovernance.
Being a voter also increases the importance of the
Shores with local officials. They look closely at how
many of those eligible actually vote, and the higher
that percentage the more influence we can have as a
community.
We estimate that there are almost 8,000 potential vot-
ers in the Shores. The San Mateo County Clerk
shows about 6,500 registered voters.
In 2011, just 4,646 votes earned a seat on the CityCouncil.
In 2009 when two of this November’s candidates were
first elected, it required only 3,724 votes to earn a seat
on the City Council.
In both of those elections the top vote getter only
received just over 5,000 votes.
In 2007 and the last contested election to the Belmont-
Redwood Shores School Board of Trustees, the sec-
ond Trustee was elected with only 3,429 votes.
With 8,000 potential voters and over 6,500 alreadyregistered in the Shores, we CAN have an impact on
these elections, but ONLY if we show up and VOTE!
If you at least 18 years old and a U.S. citizen, please
make sure that you are registered to vote! If you
haven’t yet registered or need more information, go to
www.shapethefuture.org where you can register on-
line and find information about the candidates and
issues that will be on the November ballot.
Also make the decision now whether you plan to vote
by mail or go to the polls on election day, November 5th. If you are not already signed up for “Vote by Mail”,
you can do that at the same web site, too.
Whatever your opinions or politics, and whether you
agree with our endorsements or not, this promises to
be an important local election, both for our Redwood
City Council and for the Belmont-Redwood Shores
School District. You need to be part of it, so…
BE A VOTER !
We Mourn the Loss of Pete Hughes
Just as I was finishing this month’s column, we were
saddened to learn that long-time Shores resident Pete
Hughes had passed away.
Pete was a member of the RSCA Board for over 15years and was a valued asset to this community.
If you enjoy walking or exercising on our levees, you
have Pete Hughes to thank. Over 15 years ago Pete
conceived the idea, arranged corporate sponsorship,
worked with the City, and almost single-handedly man-
aged RSCA’s first Levee Clean Up. The Levee Clean
Up, where scores of community volunteers pick up
trash all along our levees and in many public areas,
was always “Pete’s project” and quickly became an
annual Shores event.
Pete was also responsible for making RSCA’s AnnualMeeting an important forum where our community
could get information from and question local officials
about issues – like the levee crisis – that specifically
affected Redwood Shores.
Pete served our children and taxpayers as member of
the Redwood Shores General Improvement District
(GID) I-64 Committee, as a volunteer on New Shores
School Advisory Committee, and as a member of the
Measure C Bond Oversight Committee. (Measure C
provided the funds that were required to build our new
Redwood Shores Elementary School.)Pete’s civic devotion and commitment to the commu-
nity was truly exceptional. He was active with the
Redwood City Police Activities League, the Peninsula
Celebration Association, and Casa de Redwood
Senior Housing. Pete and his wife Ginny both served
on the Board and were strong supporters of the
Kainos Home and Training Center for developmental-
ly challenged adults.
What was most extraordinary about Pete Hughes is
that, due to his level of involvement, service to the
community, and credibility in both Redwood Shoresand Redwood City, you could mention “Pete,” and
everyone would know that you were referring to Pete
Hughes. He impacted so much, and his influence was
pervasive.
Pete’s friendship and inspiration will be missed. RSCA
suggests that expressions of sympathy be made as a
donation to Kainos, and you can find their information
at http://www.kainosusa.org .

Dear EdtorRe: New Parcel Ta Ballot MeasureReasons to Vote No
In August, the Belmont Redwood Shores School Board of
Trustees (BRSSD) voted to place a new parcel tax on the
November 5, 2013 ballot. The Trustees are calling this a “renew-
al” of two previous parcel taxes. In fact it is a new parcel tax
which will now continue your payments until the year 2025.
There has been a buzz in the Shores in the last month regarding
this issue. Articles in local papers are predicting doom and gloom
if the parcel tax is not passed. One candidate running for the
BRSSD stated, “The last thing we need to do is screw over our
kids by taking away funds we already have”. Another candidate
for the Board said, “Yes. Renewal of existing parcels, without
raising taxes will prevent cuts in funding…”
All of these nice folks who are trying to get this new parcel tax
passed are forgetting one big piece of the puzzle. That piece is the
taxpayers of Redwood Shores. Specifically the taxpayers who do
not have school age children. This is the largest voting bloc in our community.
These voters have been paying the two non-tax deductible parcel
taxes for the last eight years and should look at the following
before voting to raise their taxes for the next ten years.
REASONS TO VOTE NO:
• Current Parcel Tax Expiration Dates: Existing parcel taxes don’t
expire for 1.5 and 2.5 years respectively.
• No Rubber Stamp: Parcel taxes are meant to be a temporary
solution to a funding problem. They should not be used indefi-
nitely or as a permanent subsidy for local education.
• Funding: The school board should wait until the new “CaliforniaLocal Control Funding Formula” is in place before panicking.
The state budget for 2013-14 fiscal year is being increased by $8
billion over 2011-12. Property values continue to rise in our com-
munity meaning more tax revenue for schools.
• Accountability: The voters have approved bond issues and par-
cel taxes totaling close to $90,000,000 for building and remodel-
ing of schools and there are still not enough classrooms for the
current student population.
•San Mateo Grand Jury: Investigating the practice of Cash Out
Refunding, the Grand Jury (2007-08) reviewed the BRSSD’s refi-
nancing of a $12 million school bond without voter’s knowledge
or approval. The cost of cash out refunding was very expensive in
respect to the return and the legality under California law is doubt-ful. Transparency and communication with the taxpayers is essen-
tial and needs improvement.
In November you will be voting for three out of five School Board
positions and there is also a new School Superintendent for
BRSSD. Let’s give them a chance to establish their direction and
communicate with the voters before we approve another ten years
of parcel tax.

Belmont-Redwood Shores SchoolDstrct Update
A Successful (f Late)Start n ModernzedSchools
School started last month on
September 11, about three weeks
later than usual. This “long sum-
mer” was scheduled ahead of time
to allow for us to complete our sum-
mer construction and modernization
projects at six of our seven district
school sites. The late start means that school will end later than
usual this year, on June 25, 2014. We are very appreciative to the
community for your patience and financial support as we made
these substantive improvements. Over the last 16 months, we
have successfully completed $63 million in construction (approx-
imately $54 million funded by the community and $9 million in
state matching funds) across all seven schools in the district,adding 28 classrooms overall, improving infrastructure, and
upgrading our wiring to allow for the increased use of technology
in our classrooms. We are proud of the fact that this construction
work was completed on time and on budget.
Contnued Enrollment Growth
Because of our community’s appeal to families with school-age
children, school district enrollment continues to climb.
Consistent with past years, we have added roughly 200 new stu-
dents this year. In fact, we’ve averaged 200 additional new stu-
dents per year for the last six years. Back in 2007, our enrollment
was 2,600. Now it’s 3,800, an increase of 46%. Throughout thistime, we have been funded as a basic aid district. That means that
our revenue is a product of our property taxes and secondary
sources of income such as supplemental state funding and dona-
tions. We do not receive more funding as a product of our enroll-
ment growth. Our revenue in 2007 was $25.1 million compared
to our present revenue of $28.9 million, an increase of 15%.
Finding a way to educate 46% more students with only 15% more
revenue is a pressing challenge for the school district. We have
begun the process of putting together a representative task force
of staff and community members to assess our options and plan
for future enrollment growth. The Enrollment and Facilities Task
Force meetings are open to the public and advertised on our web-
site (www.brssd.org). Community input is welcome. Give us a
call at 650-637-4800 (x1003) if you would like to learn more.
Thank you for your interest in and support of our school district.
If you have questions about our work or suggested topics for
future updates from me, do not hesitate to contact me at:
[email protected] or 650-637-4800 (x1003).

“Wpes Clog Ppes”“Wipes Clog Pipes” was the theme for national Pollution
Prevention Week September 16-22, reports SBSA Pollution
Prevention Specialist Susan Hiestand.
The website BayWise (http://baywise.org/residents/your-toilet)
has this report.
Disposable wipes are growing in popularity - and wreaking
havoc on sewer systems.
Many consumers use disposable wipes because they’re conven-
ient for cleaning and disinfecting. Even people who would not
normally embrace disposable products because of concern for
overburdened landfills are using wipes that are being marketed
as “flushable.” They don’t toss them in the trash; they flush
them down the toilet, believing they’ve done the right thing.
“Flushable” Wipes Should NOT be Flushed
The “flushable” label simply means they will go down your toi-
let when flushed. What you should be concerned about is what
can happen next.
Unlike toilet paper, disposable wipes (even those labeled “flush-
able”) do not quickly disintegrate in water. Consumer Reports
tested several brands of wipes labeled “flushable” and found
that while toilet paper disintegrated after about eight seconds,
the wipes still hadn’t broken down after 30 minutes.
These products stay largely intact as
they travel through sewer pipes and
can easily get caught on roots or other
debris, increasing the risk of clogs andsewage overflows.
As disposable wipes grow in populari-
ty, sewer agencies are being forced to commit additiona
resources to removing mounds of wipes clogging up public
sewer lines, pumps, and treatment facilities.
Disposable wipes are an even greater threat to your home’s
sewer pipe, which is much smaller and more easily clogged. In
addition to potentially causing clogs and overflows, many o
the cleaning and disinfecting wipes contain chemicals that are
difficult for sewer treatment plants to remove, and they canthus pollute local waters.
If you use disposable cleaning/disinfecting wipes, moist tow
elettes, baby wipes, personal hygiene wipes or similar dispos
able or “flushable” products, put them in the trash, never in
your toilet.
Only human waste and toilet paper should be flushed down
your toilet. Taken from the SBSA Newsletter

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament
(ACL) is one of 4 ligaments that provide
stability to the knee joint. More than
200,000 people per year experience ACLinjuries.
Non contact ACL injuries usually occur with
sudden stopping, awkward landing from a jump, or pivoting with
the foot planted on the ground. The consequences of an ACL
injury potentially include surgical repair, a long rehabilitation
period before returning to sports, and in the long run, a higher risk
for knee arthritis.
The good news is that recent studies suggest that certain exercis-
es decrease the chance of ACL injury. Athletes should be exam-
ined by a health professional such as a physical therapist to assess
strength, flexibility, and mechanics. It’s best when these
exercises are started with young athletes before poor technique
becomes a difficult habit to break. With the help of a coach, train-
er, or therapist, an athlete can implement an exercise program to
prevent the chances of ACL injury.
Exercises you can do at home to prevent ACL
injury:1) Squats - Lower into a mini squat by bending at your knees and
hips. Make sure that your knees go straight forward (in the same
direction as your feet) and they stay behind the front edge of your
toes. Maintain the space under the inner arches of your
feet and draw in your abs to make sure your spine stays neutral.At the bottom of your squat, your shoulders should be in line with
your knees and toes and the side of your hip should stay in line
with your heels.
2) Single leg heel raises - This exercise is to improve balance, core
strength, and leg strength. With very little or no hand support,
stand on one foot and rise up to the ball of your foot. Make sure
your ankle stays in alignment with your foot and leg, your spine
stays neutral, your hips stay even, and your knee stays straight.
3) Jumping- with feet about 4” apart, use the squat technique and
heel raise technique from above to launch your jump. Try jump-
ing in place, forward, backward, and side to side and turning.
With every jump, make sure that the alignment described in the
first two exercises is maintained. Your knees should stay 4” apart
just like your feet.
Remember, the most important aspect of these exercises is to per-
form them correctly, not to feel the “burn”, or push until you can’t
do more. Start by doing them in front of a mirror and then take
these techniques to the field, gym, or dance studio!

it’s Begnnng To Loo a Lot LeChrstmas, i Mean Halloween!
Did the celebration of Halloween begin
because it was the day before All Hallows’Day (All Saints) or because it was the
Celtic way of celebrating the time of har-
vest? I don’t know. All I know is that
every year it is taking on the enormity of
Christmas decorating and people are really
into it!
I have some friends who became “Halloween central” and threw
the best costume party every year until they moved away last
October. Now all of us are looking at each other like “Hey, why
don’t you have the party at your house?” But nobody wants to
touch it, partly because we don’t have all the Diddams decorations
like our friends did, and partly because we are relieved that we
don’t have to come up with a better-than-last-year’s Halloweencostume. We don’t miss the costume stress but we do miss the
party and the fun.
I guess the history behind Hallows’ Eve is that every extreme
kind of thing busted out all over before Hallows’ Day and all the
saints got center stage – kind of like binge eating before going on
a diet. Somewhere in there I think we developed this misconcep-
tion that anything that has to do with God is uptight and no fun,
and everything that does not have to do with God is really fun.
So, if you had to choose between celebrating a bust out Hallows’
Eve or a buttoned down Hallows’ Day, who wouldn’t choose
Hallows’ Eve? And here we are.
If I were God I would be greatly offended by that. After all,
who created fun? Who created childlike play and creative cos-
tumes and friends with whom we party and chill? Who created
the good times that make us laugh until we cry, and the joy that
comes from one bite of a snickers bar? It’s time we uncoveredthe lie and give God credit for the fun and give somebody else
credit for being uptight and no fun.
You know, now that I think about it, maybe Halloween isn’t so
far from Christmas after all. Joy to the world, the Lord has
come! Jesus said he came to bring joy in all its fullness, so I say
let’s have fun and give God all the credit. I’m not saying that
every crazy thing associated with Halloween is the joy Jesus had
in mind, but I think he went to better parties than we do, and
finds joy in our joy. So, when the costumes this Halloween
make you smile and you lighten up and enjoy your kids and your
friends a little more, know that this too is holy (hallowed)
ground. Pastor Mary Graves - www.trinity-pres.org
in Memoram to Pete Hughes,Our Man About Town
Dear Editor,
I’d like to thank all the board members, past and present for allow-
ing my husband, Pete Hughes to be a part of this organization. I
know Pete thought a lot of all of you in RSCA, and he often talked
about Carol, what a fine job she did, and how the Pilot had become
one of the things he looked forward to reading. Again, thank you for
your kindness and thoughtfulness shown to him. The memorial
will be Sunday Oct. 6, 2013 from 1-4pm at the American Legion,
651 El Camino Real in Redwood City.
Thank you, Ginny Hughes

Musical Bridges 3 on Sunday Oct 27 at 2.30pm, once again, promises a concert, “A Celebration of Youth Music”, that will take you
on an inspiring journey of music, from great classical masterpieces to folk music, dances, jazz and rock’n roll! Do join us for a won-
derful afternoon of music by award winning, acclaimed and passionate young pianists at the Trinity Presbyterian Church at 1106
Alameda De Las Pulgas, San Carlos. Performing students are from the studio of Concert Pianist, Sujeeva Hapugalle.
“The Studio Project, Musical Bridges - Bridging the passion and excellence of youth music to serve our community,” was born in our
studio as a project to develop the performing talents of young musicians and to make a difference in our community through their
music.
Over one hundred very endearing letters of appreciation from students and school teachers that benefited from the support of Musical
Bridges 2 last year, encouraged us to reach out again to them. We are once again going to collaborate with the San Francisco Symphony
and it’s Upper Peninsula League, to support hundreds of students from lower economic schools of San Mateo County to benefit from
an extended Education program of the SF Symphony, describes Ms Hapugalle.
Thanks to our communities, Ms. Hapugalle, her students and their families extend their warmest thanks to all the community who have
extended their gracious support through generous donations to the musical community beneficiaries of our past Musical Bridges
Programs (details in concert advertisement on page 24), graced and inspired the studio young performers with valued presence at their
concerts.
The Young Performers are thrilled to perform an exciting repertoire for their MB3 audiences! The preparation of music has given wings
to their mind, soul and imagination, and flight of excitement to communicate their music! They have worked well through the aca-
demic year to win many accolades at leading state/international competitions in the Bay area. Student accomplishments include win-
ners of the American Fine Arts Festival (that led to performances in NY) scholarship winners and selected artists to the roster of
International Young Artists at the highly regarded Music at Menlo International Chamber Music Festival, the winner of the MTAC
Young Artist Scholarship, First Place and 2nd Runners up at the Menuhin Dowling Competition, 2nd Prize at the SF Chopin
Competition, First and 2nd place awards at the CMTANC International Competition, 14 Prizes amongst 10 students at the US Open
Intl Music Competition, including 2 Outstanding Gold Medalists and 2 First Prizes, and among other events, awards and recognition
at the Russian International Music Competition . Submitted by Sujeeva Hapugalle, Concert Pianist and Teacher
PERIOSTAT AND GUM DISEASE
Periostat: a new drug for the war against gum disease
The leading treatments for gum disease are scaling and root planning (deep cleaning of the gums) and surgical gum treatment inmore advanced cases. Antibiotics are sometimes used in conjunction with these other therapies, often with the goal of killing bac-
teria that is causing the gum disease. Recently, there is a new drug, which instead focuses on controlling our body’s reaction tothese bacteria. The new drug is called Periostat. To understand how Periostat works, we need to have some understanding of how
bacteria in the mouth cause the loss of gum tissue and bone around the teeth. Oral bacteria cause a chronic infection in the mouthof people with gum disease. This infection causes the body to release chemical substances called cytokines, which in turn cause a
cascade of reactions within the gum and surrounding tissue. One of the substances released is a family of enzymes known as matrixmetalloproteinases (MMPs). One of the MMPs is collagenase, an enzyme that breaks down the gum and bone. Periostat is a new
application of a not so new drug, doxycycline. Doxycycline is a derivative of tetracycline. Periostat is a 20 mg capsule of doxy-cycline that should be taken twice a day over several months. Periostat helps to inhibit the body’s production of the destructive col-lagenase. Unlike higher doses of doxycycline or tetracycline that can be used to prevent the multiplication of some bacteria asso-
ciated with gum disease. Periostat protects our body’s “over reaction” to bacteria, and its lower dose has far fewer side effects.Periostat is not intended to replace the need for excellent oral hygiene or other traditional gum treatment. It is a drug that clinical
research has shown that will modestly improve gum disease when taken in conjunction with professional deep cleaning of the gumsand a thorough oral hygiene regimen.

Acupuncture insomna By Dr. Catherine Nghiem-Shum, D.C., L.Ac.
Insomnia can be defined as poor sleep followed by daytime fatigue.
Most sufferers experience the inability to fall asleep while others fre-
quently awaken and never reach a deep level of sleep. Causes of
insomnia may stem from stress, depression, irregular work schedule,
medications, or pain from physical conditions including hyperthy-
roidism and arthritis. Physical tiredness, depression, difficult con-centration, irritability and lethargy are associated symptoms that
accumulate and can linger for days, months or years if insomnia is
left untreated.
In Oriental Medicine, we believe insomnia relates to the heart, which
houses the sub-conscience and controls your sleep pattern and the
pericardium, which protects the heart. Overtime, insomnia will put
unnecessary stress on the liver, which in turn affects the health of the
nerves.
Acupuncture has a calming effect on the nerves and is a great reme-
dy for disturbed or restless sleep. Unlike medicated sleep aids, there
is little to no side-effects with acupuncture. Each treatment is patient-
specific, the practitioner will address all underlying issues to bring
the body into balance. Acupuncture works to improve the body’s
ability to adapt to stress. A minimum of 6 visits of acupuncture is rec-
ommended to inspire change. The effect is cumulative. Common
acupuncture points for insomnia can be found on the back, scalp,
arms, feet and ear. Dr. Catherine Nghiem-Shum practices in Redwood Shores.

Just Sa Meow!
Through the years of pet sitting I have encountered all too many
cute or amusing situations with animals. Any pet owner has plen-
ty of stories of the funny things their fur kids have done. I thought
I would tell you about some of my more memorable ones.
I took care of a cat who liked to stay under the bed when we
arrived. We would try coaxing her out using a soft voice to out-
right bribing her with food. None of our attempts worked. We
could tell Sheba was a sweet cat, so we worked very hard to coax
her out. One day, one of my sitters arrived to take care of Sheba.
She called me later to tell me that Sheba came out from under the
bed for her. I was amazed! When I inquired as to what her trick
was, she replied that she simply “meowed” to Sheba. After a few
“meows”, Sheba came right out to visit! We now use “meow” with
Sheba!
In the early days of business, I took care of a lab. “Killer” as he
was called was the sweetest most loving dog around. One eveningI went into the backyard to check Killer’s water bowl. I turn to
look to see Killer jumping up a good six feet trying to reach an
unseen object. The next morning I returned, went into the back-
yard. This time Killer was fine. I again returned that same evening
and Killer starts jumping at some unseen object. I’m chuckling at
his behavior and cannot figure out what is causing him to do this.
After playing detective, I discover whenever I turned the outside
light on, Killer would try to jump for it. When the light was turned
off, he just ignored it, but when it was turned on, all bets were off.
I don’t know if Killer thought this light was a ball or what. Thank
goodness the light was mounted up high and Killer could not reach
it!
Katie was a dog we would take care of once or twice a year. Eachtime we would arrive, Katie would exhibit all signs of being scared
and not wanting us to approach. “Uh-oh” I thought to myself,
“we’re going to have a problem here”! As I was mentally consid-
ering what would be the best way to handle this, I also happened to
reach for her leash. The second Katie saw the leash in my hand,
she changed her tune. She trotted right over to the door, sat down
and waited for me to put on the leash. Now, we know when we
visit Katie to just grab the leash and she will not give us any
problems!

For The Health Of it3 Fantastc Fall Fruts:What’s n ‘Em for you!
Most of us love a sweet treat, yet forget the simplest of all: fresh,
perfectly-ripened fruit. It’s guilt-free and absolutely delicious
when it’s in season. Packed with great taste and huge nutritional
value, add these easy-to-find fruits to your shopping list this fall:
1. Apples - From mild and sweet to extremely tart, there are more
than 7,000 varieties of apples worldwide. They are a powerful
source of antioxidants, including polyphenols, flavonoids, beta
carotene and vitamin C. This means apples are good at neutraliz-
ing free radicals that cause cellular damage in our bodies if left
unchecked. Apples also contain B vitamins, as well as minerals
like potassium, phosphorus and calcium. And they are high in
pectin, a soluble fiber that can lower cholesterol levels, improve
intestinal function and ward off hunger. According to the
Encyclopedia of Healing Foods by Michael Murray, studies show
apple consumption to be consistently associated with reduced risk
of heart disease, cancer, asthma and type 2 diabetes compared to
other fruits and veggies. Pick apples that are firm, crisp and
vibrant in color. Wash thoroughly and eat with the skin on for maximum nutrition. Try Jonagold, Honeycrisp or Cameo apples
– all excellent with any organic nut butter.
2. Pears - With over 3,000 varieties worldwide, pears are related
to apples, though softer, sweeter and juicier, with a slightly
grainy texture. Anjou, Bartlett, Bosc and Comice are the most
commonly found pears in the US. With most nutritional value in
or just below the skin, pears contain a good amount of vitamin C
and copper, as well as B-complex vita-
mins, iron, potassium, manganese,
magnesium and antioxidant phytonu-
trients. Like apples, they are a good
source of dietary fiber. Unlike apples,
pears need 2-5 days at room tempera-
ture to fully ripen. They taste best
when they yield slightly to gentle pres-sure. Once ripe, store in the fridge and
eat within a few days.
3. Figs - There are several hundred varieties of figs, with Black
Mission, Kadota and Brown Turkey figs being most commonly
found at our markets. Another excellent source of fiber, figs are
often recommended to tone the intestines. They contain a very
high amount of calcium compared to other fruits (especially when
dried), making them exceptionally alkaline and helpful in reduc-
ing over-acidity that can result from such things as stress and junk
food. They also contain iron, copper, magnesium, manganese
potassium, B vitamins, vitamin K, and free radical-fighting
antioxidants. Ripe figs are soft, but not overly soft, bruised o
showing signs of mold. They are highly perishable, so buy andeat within a few days.
Experiment with varieties of all of these fruits to find what best
suits your taste. Consider a fall fruit salad combining your
favorite diced apples and pears with figs cut in quarters. If you
want a little extra sweetness, try a dash of coconut sugar or 100%
pure maple syrup. Enjoy! By Lauren Picciani

Fall Trends for AllWhen it comes to trends, most people just want to know how they can stay cur-
rent and look relevant from season to season. Here are some ideas on how to
work a few of the trends this season.
Trend : Saturated colors (especially red and blue), plus pale pink, plus olive
green. (There are others; text 22828 to join my mailing list and get the full scoopon Fall colors in my September newsletter.)
How to work it: The cardinal rule about color is that if it is one of ‘your’ col-
ors, you can wear it lightly or from head-to-toe. If it isn’t one of ‘yours’, use it
as an accent color and preferably not near your face. If it’s your color, why not
invest in a coat? It’s very popular this season in a variety of shapes and colors.
Remember – if a color is one that you look great in, it can serve as a ‘neutral’ for
you.
Trend : Plaids and tweeds
How to work it: Plaids can be a bit tricky because you can easily start to look
like a lumberjack or a prep-schooler. If you’re loving this trend, incorporate
plaid into your accessories – perhaps some pumps or a clutch-purse. If you plan
on wearing plaid, keep it to one item and use one of the colors in the print as the
primary color to pair with it. Tweeds/the menswear-look are really big this sea-
son, and are ideal for the corporate world because they look so professional. If you love tweed, this is the year to stock up on it because we don’t see it every
year.
Trend : Leather (and faux leather) everywhere
How to work it: Because leather is literally everywhere, from trim to side pan-
els to full-on all-leather dresses, this is a good year to stock up. If you’re a
leather-lite kind of person, try a dress or top with a bit of leather trim; otherwise
pick up leather-paneled dresses or pants (not to mention the motocross jacket -
another hot trend this year.) I don’t recommend wearing leather head-to-toe
unless you’re a rock star, a model, or an actual biker, but this is definitely the
year to stock up on unusual presentations in leather.

WINE APPRECIATION By Tom Barras
From LyNN’s kiTCHEN(Or how a former Connecticut Yankee embraced California Cuisine) – Lynn Kathleen Adams
If it’s Autumn then it’s Time for Yankee Pot Roast!
When the cool weather begins to set in, and we are outdoors tending to
our autumn gardening chores, or merely relaxing on a weekend after-
noon, watching college and NFL football games, nothing smells more
wonderful than a nice pot roast cooking in the oven. Aside from the ini-
tial preparation, it really cooks itself and only needs an occasional “chef
check” to flip it over a few times to make certain it is browning properly.
We like to make Yankee Pot Roast for a family Sunday dinner, but with a
California twist to the more New England traditional recipes. Pick up a
beautiful grass fed 2 lb. boneless chuck roast, and an assortment of root
vegetables to serve with the tender pot roast. Select parsnips, carrots, fin-
gerling potatoes, shallots, butternut squash, and sweet potatoes but roast
them to sweet deliciousness! Comfort foot at its best, especially with a
nice glass of our favorite Navarro Pinot Noir Deep End Blend!
YANKEE POT ROAST
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2 LB boneless chuck roast
1/3 C. Unbleached All Purpose Flour
Fresh ground black pepper
Kosher SaltI Large Yellow Onion, chopped into small pieces
2 or 3 Carrots, peeled and chopped into small pieces
2 or 3 Cloves Garlic, peeled and diced
Olive Oil
1 Cup Red Wine
1 to 1 ½ Quarts Beef Stock (Low Sodium)
1 Large Turkish Bay Leaf (California Bay Laurel is too strong/aromatic
for this recipe)
6 Sprigs Fresh Thyme
Fresh Flat Leaf / Italian Parsley – about ¼ Cup chopped and for garnish
Season the chuck roast with salt and pepper, then dredge with flour until
evenly coated. Place Dutch Oven (we always use “Big Blue” our
favorite 4 ½ Quart Le Creuset dutch oven and yes, I name my pots and
pans!) on stove top and add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil – heat on mediumand brown the roast on all sides. Remove roast from pan. Add chopped
onion, carrots and garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent, and carrots
slightly softened. Add red wine, beef stock (start with one quart), bay leaf
and thyme sprigs (don’t worry, the little thyme leaves will fall off during
the cooking process and you can extract the bare sprigs along with the bay
leaf before serving!) and the roast. Bring to boil, and then cover the pot
and place in oven on middle rack. You will need to cook the pot roast for
2 – 2 ½ hours, until meat is fork tender and almost falling apart. If nec-
essary, add a bit more beef broth. The goal is to only have about 1 or 2
inches of the roast above the liquid. Check the roast when you come in
from the garden for a glass of water or at half-time during the game, and
flip it over so the bottom becomes the top. When cooked, remove roast
from pot, set onto platter and cover with foil to rest. Strain the liquid into
smaller pan to remove any thyme sprigs, or bits of carrots and onions.Bring liquid to boil and then lower heat to slow boil, stirring to reduce and
concentrate the flavor. (You can thicken by adding 1 teaspoon cornstarch
to 1/3 Cup cold water, stirring, and then adding to hot liquid.). To serve,
arrange the roasted root vegetables on the platter alongside the pot roast
and pour some of the juices over the roast and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES
This is so easy – just take an assortment of shallots, fingerling potatoes,
carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, turnips or butternut squash – whatever
is local and just harvested at the farmer’s markets! Peel (or not depend-
ing upon selection), slice into similar sizes, toss with olive oil and salt &
pepper, and place in separate roasting pan in the over for approximately
60 minutes, stirring once or twice when you check on the pot roast.

I n Vino Veritas. Students of Latin know that
the preceding means, “In wine (there is)
truth.” Scholars attribute the phrase to
Alcaeus of Mytilene, a 6th century BC
Greek poet. But since the quote has been
passed on in its Latin form, it has been moreoften attributed to Pliny the Elder, a Roman
historian who, unfortunately, was sipping wine
too near Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in AD 79. The
implication of the phrase is that being under the influ-
ence of wine’s liberating alcoholic properties, one is more apt
to be candid about what is on one’s mind.
Wine, as many oenophiles know, was the beverage of choice at
the Greek Symposia (for men only) and Roma Convivia (for
women only), wherein topics of political and philosophical
importance were discussed and debated throughout the night
while eating finger food and sipping wine. However, unlike the
alcoholic beverages of the Germanic tribes, the Greeks (pri-
marily) and the Romans (less so) watered-down their wines so
as to keep the intellect open and in check during those festivi-
ties.
Besides the literal meaning, wine truths appear in other forms.
There is the verity of a grape’s intrinsic character (that under-
lies the wine into which it is made.) Each grape varietal is
unique, and each reveals itself via its particular qualities of tan-
nin, acidity, alcohol, body and dryness. That’s why, for exam-
ple, a Pinot Grigio tastes totally unlike, say, a Sauvignon Blanc
and neither is remotely similar to a Semillon. And in the hands
of a competent winemaker one can expect each of those winesto always smell and taste the way they do, glass after glass, time
after time.
There is also a truth of a wine’s provenance (think appellation),
where, for example, in Spain’s Rias Baixas region, the world’s
first Albariño is produced. Since it rocketed to fame many
years ago, Albariño is now being produced elsewhere, but the
truth of its origins, and the unique way an Albariño smells and
tastes in its birthplace is what separates it from its hopeful, but
lesser competitors. The same can be said of the wines from
other appellations. Consider the unique profiles of France’s
Cote Rotie, Italy’s Brunello and Greece’s Agiorghitiko (aka St.George). Nobody makes them like they do and better than they
do.
Last, but certainly not least, is the important truth about wine’s
reason for existing . While the buzz—that gentle, euphoric and
altered state of mind—may have been why the ancients pursued
the pleasures of wine, modern man enjoys wine for more civi-
lized reasons—as a food item, but more specifically as an
accompaniment to be enjoyed with family and friends at the
dinner table. Nothing does it better.

Dear EdtorThank you to the Redwood Shores
community! After living overseas for
three years, my cats and I recently moved
back into our home in the Shores.
I have more than one cat, and the
more adventurous cat, Berkeley, went
missing shortly after we moved back in.
After I posted “Cat Missing” posters all
over the area, I received many phone calls with “Berkeley”
sightings, excellent suggestions, and offers to help find him.One afternoon while I was checking under decks I heard some
folks calling his name. People I didn’t even know took it upon
themselves to look for him!
My missing cat was found by Tammy one evening at the cor-
ner of Davit and Marlin. She was as excited as I was to have
found him!
I want to thank everyone who took an interest, offered moral
support and actively searched for him. It certainly “takes a vil-
lage” in this case to find a beloved pet and I so appreciate it!
Thank you for making the Shores a truly wonderful and caring
community.
