BY PAUL APFEL

INSIDE LINCOLN CORRESPONDENT

Childhood obesity haslately been very much in

the public consciousness.Most would agree that itsthe parents primaryresponsibility to raise,feed and clothe their chil-dren.

However, because ourchildren spend much oftheir waking hours in thepublic school system,schools bear a responsi-bility to ensure studentsare provided a healthy

balance of nutrition and

exercise.So, while parents dont

get off the hook to provide

guidance and set exam-

ples for their children -see the sidebar on tips forparents from a registered

dietitian - schools should

have active programs todeal with childrensweighty issues.

Happily, the WesternPlacer Unified School Dis-trict has installed severalprograms to help stu-dents adopt healthy eat-ing and physical activitybehaviors that are key topreventing obesity.

According to the schooldistricts Deputy Superin-tendent Mary Boyle,

physical fitness is man-aged through exerciseand diet programs.

Boyle said that the staterequires 200 minutes ofphysical education every10 days for first throughsixth graders. That means

generally 20 minutes dai-ly. For students in sevenththrough 12th grades, thatdaily requirement rises to

40 minutes or a total of400 minutes every 10days.

Students in ninththrough 12th grades canbe exempt from physicaleducation if they pass fiveof the six physical fitnesstest areas.

Boyle described a phys-ical-fitness test requiredfor all students in gradesfive, seven and 9 to meas-

ure fitness in six areas:aerobic capacity, bodycomposition, abdominalstrength, trunk extensorstrength, upper bodystrength and flexibility.

There is no state-man-dated testing requirement


Schools and parents work together for childrens healthy habitsDIETARY TIPS FOR PARENTS

Margaret Scheller, a registered dietitianwith Sutter Health, has provided a seriesof tips for parents to help their children

as well as themselves to eat healthy andavoid obesity for a lifetime.

EAT AS A FAMILY.

As a parent, set the example and makehealthy food and beverage choices.

EXERCISE PORTION CONTROL.

Make more healthy food items available.

Provide high fiber/low added-sugar cere-al, low-fat milk, fresh fruits and vegeta-bles cut up and ready to eat.

INVOLVE CHILDREN IN SHOPPING

AND COOKING.No good or bad foods, just better choic-es (whole-wheat flour tortilla withpeanut butter and banana instead ofdoughnut and cookies).

PRAISE AND ENCOURAGE CHILDREN

TO MAKE BETTER CHOICES.

Limit fast food or make up fast food at

home (veggie burgers on whole-wheatbuns or bean burritos and low-fatcheese.)

AVOID/LIMIT HIGH-SUGAR

BEVERAGES.Listen to what healthy foods your chil-dren will eat and have them available.

ENCOURAGE EXERCISE AND LESS TV

AND COMPUTER TIME.

Inform children of the health risks associ-ated with obesity: diabetes, heart dis-ease, asthma and high-blood pressure.

for the other grades.The school districts

food and nutrition pro-gram emphasizes healthyeating at breakfast andlunch, including wholegrains and one-percentlow fat milk. Deep-fried

foods are not allowed andsalt and sugar intake isrestricted and monitoredclosely.

Jeff Dardis, the schooldistricts director of childnutrition, noted thatvending machines onschool campuses mustmeet state guidelines forhealthy snacks. Sugar-laden drinks are not per-mitted.

Dardis also noted thatthe school district is pur-chasing fruits and pro-duce directly from PlacerCounty farmers. The dis-trict currently buys man-darin oranges and kiwifruits locally and, accord-ing to Dardis is looking toexpand that into othervegetables and fruits inthe near future.

Boyle also mentionedthat in 2010, the districtsemployee health commit-tee started an annual10,000 steps challenge toencourage employees toexercise more often and toincrease awareness of walking for themselvesand their students. Thishas resulted in severalteachers now walking atlunch with their students,

encouraging, according toBoyle a team approach to

healthy exercise.The school district pro-

vides breakfast and lunchfor its students. Costs vary.For example, breakfast forelementary and middleschool students is provid-ed for $1.75 while highschool students pay $2.Lunch for elementary stu-dents is $2.50, $2.75 formiddle school studentsand $3 for high school.

The CDC has identifiedhealthy eating and physi-cal activity as key behav-iors in preventing obesityand providing for ahealthy lifestyle.

There is considerableevidence that the WesternPlacer Unified School Dis-

trict is actively supportingmeasures to ensure both.

Iknow it is hard to con-vince yourself all thisheat is really necessary

but just wait until youtaste the fruit. Wow! Whata difference a few warmdays make.

We farmers were get-ting pretty discouragedlately with the unseason-ably cool weather. Noth-ing was ripening on time,the fruit size was smallerand the flavor was lessthan spectacular.

But now, after a week of

higher temperatures, weare slammed with pro-duce.

Last week, we werebehind schedule and, bynext week, we will bedrowning in produce. Wewill be going crazy trying

to pick and sell everythingbefore it gets over ripe.

For you, the consumer,that means better-tastingfruit, more choices andsome fantastic heat wavesales.

Peaches in particular

will be outstanding in fla-vor and price. Be sure toask for a sample beforeyou make your purchasesbecause you may want tobuy extra. Tomatoes,tomatoes and moretomatoes, especially the

Sun Gold cherry tomatoesand the red sweet 100staking over the gardens.

Gordon from Willow

Creek said he could pickall day and still not getthem all picked. The heir-loom tomatoes are just

taking their time but willbe arriving soon.

As for us, that is how wefeel about the blackber-

ries: we pick in the morn-ing and, by evening, haveto pick again. We are get-ting a huge amount from

our little patch. But Idrather pick blackberriesthan cherry tomatoes.

It seems there is neveran end to tomatoes. Andbesides, I like to sample asI pick and I do love black-berries.

Squash is loving the warmer weather and isanother crop that youcould pick twice a day tokeep it manageable. Thegood thing about squashis .... everything. It can beeaten morning, noon andnight and even fordessert. I was given a fan-tastic squash recipe last

week that was unbeliev-able. Squash Pie. You

would swear it was anapple pie. This veryunique pie was enjoyedby all who were luckyenough to get a bite.

Speaking of apples, yesthey are ripening too. Wehave started picking the

Ginger Gold apple, whichis similar to an early Gold-en Delicious but denser

with a nice flavor. Apricots are history.

Sadly, the heat picked theremainder of the crop. I

just hope we got enoughdried for the winter.

Pears are just gettingsugar and will be readysoon. Strangely enough,plums are slow to ripen

and are in short supplynow.

It is time to get yourcanning jars readybecause the peak of can-ning season is upon us.

Cucumbers for picklingare perfect and not show-

ing any signs of heatstress. Best get thembefore they becomestressed and bitter.Cucumbers are so healthyfor your system becausethey help naturalize theacid and lower PH levels.

Try slicing them on asandwich with a littlecream cheese; its verylight and refreshing.

Sweet corn has beengreat and both white and

yellow are available.Garden beans are liter-

ally being picked by thefive-gallon bucketfuls. Do you realize how muchlabor and time that takes?Next time youre checkingout the green beans, thinkof the farmers bending orcrawling on their knees

and picking them one byone!

The farmers haveearned every cent theycharge for that bean. Thelarge commercial growersmachine harvest theirbeans in minutes. A

human hand doesnt eventouch them.The real heat lovers of

the garden, peppers, egg-plants and okra; haveflooded the market inonly a week.

Yes, it is finally summer!

I love to walk theDowntown Lincoln Farm-ers Market every Thurs-day and enjoy the differ-ent tables and appreciatethe hard work of our ded-icated farmers.

Take a moment, stand

back and admire thebeautiful colors, texturesand aromas of summer,and say thank you. Thank

you for doing this for me.

With the opening of theLincoln Food Mart one

month ago on July 4, onemore business has shownevidence of its confidencein Lincolns economicfuture.

The Lincoln Food Mart,located in the small busi-ness center at 421 A St. atthe corner of A Street andHighway 193, is one ofLincolns newest busi-nesses and certainly itsnewest food and beverage

store.Store manager Humay-

oom Lodhi cited his 20

years in the wine andspirits industry and the

relationships he estab-lished over those years asa key factor in being ableto bring reasonablypriced beverages into Lin-coln.

I wanted to open aconvenience mart saidLodhi, one that wouldstock wines and beersthat are not carried byother stores.

This inventory includes

organic wines not seen onother area beverage storeshelves plus an assort-

ment of locally-produced wines from Lincoln andneighboring foothill com-munities.

Although beverages areplenty at this mini-mart,the store stocks other

products ranging frommotor oil to charcoal bri-quets to frozen dinners.

And it serves coffee, freecoffee in fact for com-muters using Highway193 during the 6-10 a.m.daily commute.

The store is owned bySharali Davis, a limitedliability corporation inDavis. When asked whythe corporation choseLincoln for this store,

Lodhi cited several factorsthat weighed into thedecision.

Lodhi noted the excel-lent quality of the schools,the housing growth and

affordability, and his ownmarket research intoneighborhood demandsas critical elements. Healso liked Lincolns loca-tion with its proximity to

Roseville and easy accessto Auburn.

Lodhi said that severalcommuters use Highway

193 as a shortcut toAuburn and other foothillcommunities. So, in addi-tion to serving Lincolncustomers, he has anopportunity to servesome of the commutersas well.

Lodhi said his currentgoal is to establish a pres-ence and grow his busi-ness by serving the com-munity while offering

some unique productsand competitive pricing.

Asked how his store isdoing financially, Lodhiresponded, business ismore than we expected.

Lincoln Food Mart isopen seven days perweek. Hours are 6 a.m. to10 p.m. Monday throughThursday, 6 a.m. to 11p.m. Friday and Saturdayand 8 a.m. to 10 p.m onSundays.

So you want to buy avacation home ormaybe a timeshare?

Lets subject the deci-sion to the model we pre-sented in an earlier col-umn. This is the modelthat analyzes demand,cost, service and support,on-time performance andfeatures and benefits.

Demand We have to consider

why you are buying thevacation property. Is this

for personal pleasure toallow you and your familyto escape a pressure-cooker environment?

Or do you want to buythis property to force yourself to take a vaca-tion? Were you presented

with a sales pitch by asmooth-talking timesharesalesperson?

Be honest with yourself.Is this in the need-to-haveor nice-to-have category?

Cost

Housing prices rise andfall with the economiccycles. So you mightrecover your down pay-ment and other routinemonthly expenses.

But, if your circum-stances change job loss,

market downturn, reloca-tion, change in maritalsituation you might takea financial bath if youhave to sell at a less thanopportune time.

Assess the risks associ-ated with your initialinvestment, which shouldbe substantial, so you cankeep your monthly debtservice within reasonableranges. Forget about thevacation home or time-share as an investment.Its shelter, thats all. And it

costs money to buy it andmaintain it, often whenyoure not living in it.

Service and supportExamine what it takes

to service and supportthis getaway home. There

are taxes and mainte-nance fees, to name justtwo categories. If you canafford them and your riskis manageable, go for it.Just dont jeopardize yourprincipal home.

Potential tax savings?Talk to your tax profes-sional. Dont ever rely onthe salesperson.

On-time performanceCan you sell the proper-

ty if you need to do so?This is still a struggling

economy and a particu-larly touchy residentialproperty market.

Many homes bought atthe top of the market justa few years ago have debtexceeding equity, a situa-tion often referred to as

being upside down. Ifyou fall into this category,delays in selling yourvacation home justincrease the size of thehole in your pocketbook.

Features and benefitsWhat are the features of

this vacation propertyand how do they benefityou?

According to the studyby the California Associa-tion of Realtors, 2009-2010 Survey of California

Home Sellers, in 2009, 67percent of all sellers inCalifornia decided to selltheir homes because ofdifficulties related tomeeting their mortgageobligations, whichincluded changes in fam-ily and employment sta-tus as well as monthlymortgage adjustments.

Reputable financialprofessionals are general-

ly skeptical of the invest-

ment wisdom for secondhomes, be they tradition-al structures, condomini-ums or timeshares. Thesame dollars spent to pur-chase and maintain suchshelter can often beinvested in financial mar-ket instruments whichover time have proven tobe much more profitable.

Finally, ask yourself ifyou want to return to thesame vacation structureand same location timeafter time. And, despite

the timeshare pitch that you can trade your timefor some property else- where, think about whether the time, effortand probable success rateis worth your effort.

Total your down pay-ment and annual costsand see whether youcouldnt take a vacation ina great spot and let some-one else clean up the

mess.

Some buyers and sell-ers really arent inter-ested in the details of

what goes on during a realestate transaction. Others

want to be very involvedand want to know all theinner workings of a deal.

There are some realestate agents who wouldrather keep their clients inthe dark but it is impor-tant for both buyers andsellers to be educatedregarding the process.

Listing agreement,

market preparationSeller will meet with theagent they have chosenand sign a listing agree-ment that clearly showsthe price the property willbe listed at and the termof the agreement. The

agent should make rec-ommendations abouthow to make the propertymore marketable. Pic-tures will be taken andother marketing will beprepared. Video tours arebecoming more popular

for the higher price range.

Showing the propertyThe listing agent and

other buyer agents willshow the property. Itmakes it much easier toshow if the property has a

lockbox and the ownersarent present at the timeof showing.

The contractIt is not uncommon for

a potential buyer to lookat the home more thanonce. The agent shouldgive advice about actualvalue of the property. Thebuyer must be pre-approved and the agentshould work with thebuyer and their loan offi-cer to formulate the offer.The listing agent will go

over the offer with theseller and either accept,counter or reject the offer.

Once an offer is accept-ed, it becomes a contract.Escrow is opened with atitle company; the prelim-inary title report and a

natural hazard disclosureare ordered. The buyersearnest money deposit issubmitted to escrow andinspections are sched-uled. The seller will fill outdisclosures with theiragent and the buyer willbe able to review them.

At the same time, theloan officer will ask thebuyer for updated docu-mentation, order anappraisal and package theloan for underwriting.

Contingency removal

There is a set time forthe buyers to do all theirinspections, review thedisclosures, get theappraisal and have theloan approved. In mosttransactions, the period is17 days. The buyers agent

will have a form to befilled out that indicateseverything is in place andthe buyer is ready to moveforward to close the deal.In a regular transaction,there may be a request forrepairs that should be

worked out prior to con-tingency removal.

Final walk-throughand signing

The buyer will do a finalwalk-through within fivedays of the close ofescrow to make sure the

property is in the samephysical condition aswhen they made the offer.They will check to see if allthe agreed-upon repairs

were done. Both buyerand seller will haveappointments set with

the title company. Buyerwill bring in their down-payment money and, thetitle company will requestfunds from the lender andthen send the transferdeed to the county torecord. Upon recordingconfirmation, the titlecompany will notify theagents and the buyer willget the keys.

As a buyer or seller, youmay not be aware of allthe work that goes onbehind the scenes. Con-tact a professional agent

in your area to work foryou in making your trans-actions seem easy.

H

ome burglaries arebecoming morecommon in Lincoln

and throughout the sur-rounding region, accord-ing to Lincoln Police ChiefPaul Shelgren.

For example, Shelgrensaid, more than 15 homeburglaries have beenreported in Sun City Lin-coln Hills since Jan 1,

where the burglarsfavorite mode of entry is

forcing side and rear exte-rior garage doors.

Unlocked patio slidingdoors have also beenreported as being anotherfavorite entry point.

But the burglary prob-lem is not confined toLincoln Hills. Other areasof the city are also seeingburglary increases. And,according to Shelgren,there seems to be noapparent pattern to thesebreak-ins.

The homes are

designed to take advan-tage of the golf course and

open-space views. Whilethat provides an obviousbenefit for the homeown-er, it also means that thereis less awareness at thefront of the homes and onthe street. Thus, mischief-makers can cruise theseneighborhoods lookingfor targets and not raiseneighborhood concernsbecause most residents

wont notice them.More traditional homes

lacking expansive viewshave been built with liv-ing rooms and diningrooms toward the front ofthe homes so residentsmore readily notice suspi-cious activity in theneighborhood.

Yet another contribut-ing factor is the locationof the garage entry doors,usually placed at the sideof the home or in the rear,

away from most public

view. Many of the break-ins have occurred withthieves forcing the side

doors to the garage with a

tool or just brute forceapplied against the door.One recent burglary vic-

tim reported thieves used

a pry-bar on his garagedoor, forcing the dooraway from the surround-

ing frame and beyond the


Residents need to be more aware of personal safetyHOME MAINTENANCE SERIES

Doors and locks Use high-quality deadboltlocks on exterior doors. Install solid core or metaldoors at entrance points. Install steel-security doorsvulnerable to garageentrances, usually side doors. Use heavy-duty, four-screwstrike plates secured with 3-inch screws into the doorframe. Use a wide-angle 160-degree peephole mountedno higher than 68 inches.Sliding-glass patio doors Insert wooden dowels orsticks into door tracks to pre-vent or limit movement.

Install pins or bolts in doortracks to prevent or limitmovement. Install screw-on securitydevices on door tracks to pre-vent or limit movement. If you have decals announc-ing alarm systems or dogs,apply them to the door.Windows Secure all windows withsecondary locking devices. Block windows to open nomore than 6 inches for venti-lation. Ensure someone cannotreach through an open win-dow to unlock an accessdoor.

Apply warning decalsannouncing alarms or dogs.Be a good and vigilantneighbor Get to know your nearbyneighbors. Agree to watch out foreach others homes. While neighbors are away,pick up papers and fliers. Be aware of strangers inyour neighborhood. Report suspicious personsand activity to Lincoln Policeat 645-4040.

TIGHTEN SECURITY AT YOUR HOUSE

The Lincoln Police Department has 22 sworn police officers as of Aug. 6, according to PoliceChief Paul Shelgren. But, by Jan. 14, that number will decline further to 19 sworn officers.

With the drop in uniformed officers on the streets in Lincoln, it follows that thieves and otherlaw-breakers can be expected to become more adventurous. Homeowners need to assume agreater responsibility for their safety. Following are some steps to take:

away from the surround-ing frame and beyond thelength of the installeddeadbolt.

That homeowner alsohad an alarm that sound-ed when the door wasforced but the thievesentered and exited hishome within less than theapproximate six minutesit took for Lincoln policeto respond.

Unsecured or opendoors have also been anunwitting invitation tothieves.

Another residentreported they inadver-tently left a garage side

door unlocked after theirwindow washers had left.The homeowner, whosuffered an estimated$60,000 loss in jewelryand silver, lamented, Wemade it easy for thethieves.

So whats ahomeowner to do?

Police officers agreethat the best we can do isto slow the thieves downor otherwise make theintrusion look too difficultso theyll look for anothertarget.

The first and most obvi-ous solution is to lock

exterior doors. But howabout the side doors?

Locksmiths tells us thatif a deadbolt is properlyinstalled and the strikerplate is secured in thedoor jamb with the prop-er length screws, thievesmay find forced entry toodifficult or noisy andmove on.

Striker plates are oftensecured by at least four wood screws, with thetwo closest to the house

exterior longer than theothers. Locksmiths tell usthat go a long way inensuring the security ofthe door. But its not fool-proof.

Retired SacramentoCounty Sheriffs DetectiveDave Evans tells us thatsliding bolts installed atthe top and bottom ofthat garage door will addextra stability and securityto the door, makingforced entry more diffi-

cult. Evans added thatsteel security doors pro-vide an extra measure ofsecurity.

Another not-so-com-mon remedy is to installtwo L brackets on eitherside of the man door - onthe inside of course - andslide a 2 by 4 or largerboard into the bracketsacross the door.

Police authorities areunanimous in urging res-idents to be vigilant and

share information withneighbors.

Note strangers appear-ing in the neighborhood.If these strangers are act-ing suspiciously, get asmuch information as pos-sible, such as vehiclelicense number, makeand model of the vehicleand personnel descrip-tion.

Then contact the Lin-coln Police Department at645-4040.
