By Pat Sherman More than 50 Bird Rock residents met with San Diego Police at Bird Rock Elementary School Jan. 29 to discuss the recent rash of vandalism and other crimes in their community — including motel shootings, bicycle thefts and eggs being thrown at cars and houses along Beaumont Avenue and adjacent streets. Police Detective Brigita Belz said a group of Bird Rock teens aged 14-17 possessing a large quantity of eggs were reported to police and interviewed the night of Saturday, Jan. 4 — though they had not thrown the eggs and were not arrested. Instead, officers conducted a field report and spoke with their parents. Police believe they are not the responsible party in egg vandalism that occurred in Bird Rock Saturday, Jan. 18. “We got a lot of compliance from the parents of that group, so we don’t think that they’re going to be out doing it again,” SDPD community relations officer Larry Hesselgesser said.

Fukushima radiation worth monitoring says UCSD scientist By Pat Sherman Two weeks after the March 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, UC San Diego atmospheric chemists noticed an unprecedented increase in radioactive sulfur in La Jolla’s air, which they realized was coming from the damaged and leaking Japanese power plant. However, Mark Thiemens, dean of physical sciences at UCSD, said reports of local kayak operators picking up radioactive residue from Fukushima on the bottoms of their boats are probably baseless — or at least not a result of the Fukushima disaster. Even using one of the most sensitive instruments available, an accelerator mass spectrometer, would require a “gigantic water sample” to glean enough radioactivity to register, Thiemens said.

Church marks Black History Month with special programs By Ashley Mackin As a kickoff to Black History Month, several church groups gathered at the Congregational Church of La Jolla Jan. 30 to honor people of color in the community and present the second Pillar of Light award. The Pillar is given to those who bring positivity and light to others, and was awarded posthumously to Oscar Knight III, who died in 2012. His widow, Gladys, accepted the award. Knight, a longtime Kiwanis Club member, served as Kiwanis Club president, lieutenant governor and governor of the California/Nevada/Hawaii District — one of the first African-Americans to do so. Pastor Charles Norris of La Jolla’s Prince Chapel by the Sea African Methodist Episcopal Church, conducted the Thursday night service, and described Knight as a “gentle giant” with a “positive, can-do attitude.” He added, “The only way people really die is if we let these things they have done die, so we want to recognize those things so these people may live on.” Throughout the month of February, the Prince Chapel by the Sea church will host special services with an emphasis on Black History each Sunday, featuring special speakers and guest pastors; celebrations of song with choirs and performers; and recognition of people of color who have contributed to the community. All are invited.

By Ashley Mackin Students at Bird Rock Elementary School will perform some bloodpumping activities this month to show their love and support for the American Heart Association (AHA). At the Jump Rope for Heart event Wednesday, Feb. 19, the children will participate in a day of jumping rope, shooting hoops and hula hooping, but from now until the big day, they will also be collecting money for the nonprofit, which researches heart disease, heart defects and other heart issues. “The event is designed specifically for kids to teach them about heart disease prevention, but it’s also an energetic, heart-pumping event where they’ll be active and get exercise and have fun doing it,” said AHA Youth Director Jennie Brane. She pointed out that one in three American children is obese and the AHA is working to combat the situation because 80 percent of obese children are not expected to get out of that category. “It’s important we teach them to take care of their hearts early on, so they have those tools to set healthy patterns now to keep their hearts healthy

throughout their lives,” she said. Brane also noted that 20 percent of people with heart disease were born with it. One example is Evan Rodriguez, a Kindergarten student at Bird Rock Elementary School, who needed open-heart surgery at age 4 to fix a heart defect. “When Evan was 18 months old, he had a heart murmur, which most babies and toddlers do. But in Evan’s case, he just wasn’t growing out of it,” said his mother, Aimee Rodriguez. “The doctor said he had a sub aortic stenosis in his aorta. It’s like a skin tag on the inside of the heart. We were shocked and reluctant to go forward with open-heart surgery, but when Evan was 4, it was growing and causing his aortic valve to leak.” So he underwent surgery in September 2012 and is doing ”fantastic” today, according to his mother, “Evan is your typical kindergartener, with lots of energy. We are so blessed.” Through the experience, Aimee and her husband, Vicente Rodriguez, developed a fundamental appreciation for the research conducted by AHA. Though they already supported the AHA, they
became more involved with the organization and discovered the Jump Rope for Heart event. “We were thrilled to bring it to his school,” Aimee Rodriguez said, adding that the staff has been incredibly supportive; especially Principal Sally Viavada and P.E. Coach Scott DeMint. “I could not be more appreciative of their help and their involvement.” At a school assembly Jan. 29, Rodriguez spoke about her son’s medical journey with his classmates as a kick-off to the fund-raising portion of the event. She said students could bring in loose change — and any donations they might come across — to their classrooms, which will go into a shoebox and presented to the AHA at the Jump Rope for Heart event. Those interested may also drop off or mail a donation to Bird Rock Elementary School, Attention: Aimee Rodriguez/Jump Rope for Heart, 5371 La Jolla Hermosa Ave. La Jolla, CA 92037. The last day to donate is Feb. 19 and for every $1,500 raised, the school will receive a $100 gift card for new P.E. equipment. u

La Jolla Elementary School uses ‘rainy day’ funds to construct two new classrooms
Volunteers needed for Retired Senior Volunteer Patrol program San Diego Police’s Northern Division is seeking recruits for its Retired Senior Volunteer Patrol (RSVP) program to serve La Jolla, UTC, Clairemont, Bay Park, Pacific Beach and Mission Beach. RSVP volunteers patrol local neighborhoods, serving as the eyes and ears of the police department. They assist uniformed officers by directing traffic at accidents, supporting disaster preparedness and homeland security efforts, helping locate stolen vehicles and ticketing vehicles parked in handicapped spaces that do not display handicap plates or placards. Volunteers also visit elderly residents to check on their welfare and safety. Volunteers must be at least 50 years of age and possess a California drivers license. A minimum of three days per month is required. The next RSVP training academy begins June 2. For more information, contact Northern Division RSVP at (858) 5521737 or e-mail sdpdnorthern@pd.sandiego.gov u
By Pat Sherman Parents at La Jolla Elementary School (LJES) are teaching students a thing or two about the value of setting money aside for a rainy day. Money that the Friends of La Jolla Elementary School foundation has been setting aside to bear the brunt of a “worst case” budget cuts scenario is now being used to fund the installation of two new classrooms at the school. Construction on the project began last week. Foundation board president Alexa Scoma said money has been accumulating in the foundation reserves from its annual giving program and gala, as well the events such as the Sunday Open Aire Market. In the current school year, the foundation has spent a record amount on support teachers and enrichment programs not covered by the district, such as technology, art, music and additional library hours, Scoma said. Meanwhile, class size in grades K-2 was increased from 24 to 27 students per teacher this year, Scoma said. To many parents’ chagrin, class sizes in some third through fifth grade classes had a ratio of 34 students per teacher at the beginning of the school year. Enrollment at La Jolla Elementary
Preparations for the addition of two new classrooms at La Jolla Elementary School began at the end of January. Courtesy has increased by about 100 students in the past five years. “I believe we have the best teachers in the county,” Scoma said, “but no matter how good you are, it’s impossible to teach effectively if you have 34 students.” The school also needed to hire a new fourth grade teacher this year, but had nowhere for them to teach. To come up with a solution, the foundation reached out to the San Diego Unified School District 18 months ago. With the assistance of La Jolla Elementary School Principal Donna Tripi, foundation member Marcy Holthus and parent Mike Elliot (who has 20 years of construction
experience), the school persuaded the district to donate two unused bungalows at Mission Bay High School, which will serve as standalone classrooms. The foundation is paying to build foundations for the structures, add plumbing and electricity and refurbish and repaint them. The bungalows should be in place and remodeled by April, Scoma said. The foundation’s school site council will offer input on how they will be used, though it will depend upon the school’s needs at that time, Tripi said, noting that one bungalow could potentially be used as a dedicated art room. She declined to provide the pricetag for the projects. u

Marching Orders Music director hopes to establish marching band at La Jolla High n Class would satisfy physical education (P.E.) requirement By Pat Sherman In 2012, UCLA’s marching band used the La Jolla High football field to practice for its Holiday Bowl performance. There were no scheduling conflicts — at least not with La Jolla High’s marching band, because the school hasn’t had one for well over a decade. Its current musical director, Michael Fiedler, hopes to fill that void by establishing a P.E. Marching Band and String Orchestra class at the school next fall. The band would represent La Jolla High at civic events such as the La Jolla Christmas Parade (which last year featured the awardwinning marching band and color guard from nearby University City High School). “There are so many parades in San Diego that La Jolla High’s never really been able to be a part of because there wasn’t an entity to have participation in it,” said Fiedler, who oversaw a 200-student marching band in Fraser, Mich. before accepting the job in La
Jolla. “With a marching band, the school has this physical presence, and they can show the rest of San Diego what they’re about.” In the San Diego Unified School District marching band also satisfies a P.E. requirement for students. That’s something parent Gitfon Cheung particularly appreciates. Her daughter, a freshman who started in the music program at Muirlands Middle School, wasn’t eager to take P.E. at La Jolla High — which is mandatory in ninth and tenth grades. “Having marching band just gives you a whole other option,” Cheung said. “It’s an entrée into P.E. that you might otherwise not enjoy.” Students who take up band in middle school often give up their instrument in high school, as they find their schedules too full to accommodate elective arts classes due to the mandatory P.E. requirement, as well as prerequisites for advanced placement (AP) classes. “Freshmen start out trying to get as many prerequisites for AP classes (as possible) so they can be competitive getting into a

college,” Fiedler said. “A lot of times art classes, including music, are falling by the wayside. (P.E. marching band) is just something that works in La Jolla because of how full the kids’ schedules are.” At least 10 other schools in the district have P.E. marching bands. Former San Diego Unified School District Board of Education President Katherine Nakamura became instrumental in assuring students in the district receive P.E. credit for marching band after hearing (in 2009) that the California Department of Education planned to stop offering P.E. credit to marching band and JROTC students. At the time, her son had started playing tuba in the marching band at Patrick Henry High School. “He was coming home (from practice) sopping wet and exhausted. I said, ‘What do you mean you’re not going to give my son P.E. credit?’ It was such an incongruity.” Pushing air through an instrument while marching and holding an instrument aloft is about as aerobically taxing as any athletic activity, Nakamura said, citing a study out of Indiana State University that equated the physical exertion required in drum corps to that of marathon running. Nakamura dug in and did some investigation, eventually spearheading legislation that resulted in California school districts being able to decide whether marching band students receive P.E. credit. “If you’re not in shape before you join marching band, suddenly you find your body changing and adapting to the physical demands on it,” Fiedler said. Pulling off intricate formations on the field also helps students develop teamwork skills. “It’s a very collaborative effort,” Fiedler said. “If you’re a cog that’s not working correctly with everyone else, there’s a very real effect on how the group works. It gives you a sense of pride in what you can accomplish.” Shannyn Bessette, president of the band boosters at La Jolla High, said the program

The booster club received a $6,000 donation from the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla, which it is using to launch the marching band, Bessette said. They’re seeking additional funds from the Foundation of La Jolla High, as well as other private donations, she said. Bessette said at least 40 students are required to establish the class — enrollment she said she is confident the school will achieve. In recent years several La Jolla High musicians built a website to support formation of a marching band. “When I would tell my students stories about the great experiences you have in marching band, the camaraderie and the different opportunities you have for scholarships to get into different colleges, a lot of them just got really excited about it,” Fiedler said. Until recently, reception from school administration has not been quite as enthusiastic. “I brought it up again last year, as I do every year, and instead of saying ‘no,’ the administration said ‘maybe.’ ” Fiedler said. In addition to musicians, Fiedler is also seeking gymnasts or dancers to participate in the marching band’s flag corps, which leads the band and offers a visual, circus-like element during performances. u

This 1936 home designed by architect Cliff May received a historic designation from the City of San Diego on Jan. 23, despite opposition from the property owner.
La Jolla homes receive historic designations By Pat Sherman Two La Jolla properties received historic designations during the San Diego Historical Resources Board’s (HRB) Jan. 23 meeting. First, the HRB granted designation to the William and Ruby Snell Cottage in WindanSea — a feather in the cap of the La Jolla Historical Society (LJHS) and architectural preservationists who fought to save the early 20th Century Tudor-style cottage and its rear companion at 337 and 341 Playa Del Sur. The property owners had planned to demolish both cottages to build a duplex. Through a compromise with the owners, the LJHS and San Diego’s Save Our Heritage Organisation were able to save the street-facing — and most historically significant — of the cottages and have it designated. The property owners, Jack and Karen Visin, will demolish the rear cottage and build a three-story modern structure in its place. A planned two-story addition to the rear of the front cottage that will replace a 1979 addition must first be approved by the U.S. Secretary of the Interior to assure it maintains architectural continuity with the existing cottage. The designation was granted based on the 1928 cottage’s period of significance, reflecting the early historical and architectural development of WindanSea. Leslie Davis, chair of the LJHS’s Preservation Committee, said the cottage might not have been saved without the assistance of the late Charles Snell, who lived

in the cottage with his parents, William and Ruby Snell, in his youth. Snell, who died in October 2013, just shy of his 85th birthday, provided a photo that proved the LJHS’s assertion that the cottages’ details were original. “This designation is truly due to him being a steward of his family’s history,” Davis said. The HRB also granted a historic designation to the George and Marion Cottrell/ Cliff May Home at 7727 Lookout Drive in La Jolla (parcels one and four). The designation was grated based on its type of construction and the significance of its architect, Cliff May (1909-1989) — considered the father of the California Ranch-style home. The designation is a bittersweet victory for preservationists, who lament the loss of an arguably significant palm tree grove there that was not properly assessed for historic value before being felled by the property owner last summer. Several neighbors attended the HRB meeting to support designation, which the property owner opposed. Preservationists feared the
home would be either demolished or closed off by new development. Speaking with the Light last year, the property owner, David Mandelbaum, said that if the property received a designation, he would “restore it to its
former glory.” He said he is not certain whether he will sell the subdivided property as “one estate or four houses.” “There will be nothing that I will do to hurt the (Cliff May) house in any way,” he assured. u

From Fukushima radiation, A1
UCSD Dean of Physical Sciences Mark Thiemens
Courtesy of UCSD
“The notion of guys going down with their Geiger counters (and detecting radiation), probably not,” Thiemens said. “I don’t see how it would happen unless there was another source … but it’s not likely coming from Japan.” In 2011 Thiemens and a crew of UCSD atmospheric chemists reported the first quantitative measurement of the amount of radiation leaked from the damaged nuclear reactor in Fukushima, following the devastating earthquake and tsunami there. Their estimate was based on radioactive sulfur that wafted across the Pacific Ocean after operators of the damaged reactor had to cool overheated fuel with seawater — causing a chemical reaction between byproducts of nuclear fission and chlorine ions in the saltwater. Thiemens has, for the past several years, unsuccessfully sought to obtain grant funding to follow-up his research, first reported on Aug. 15 2011 in the online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. However, he said neither the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Environmental Protection Agency, California Air Resources Board or National Academy of Sciences (of which he is a member) were
interested in funding more research to measure the Fukushima fallout. “It’s probably one of these things that just fell through the cracks,” Thiemens said. “It doesn’t quite fall under classical (research criteria).” However, every few weeks for the past several years Thiemens’ crew has sent water samples collected off the La Jolla coast to Timothy Jull, a professor of geosciences and physics at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Jull’s doctoral students are testing the samples for levels of iodine-129 (a naturally occurring, long-lived radioisotope of iodine which is useful in monitoring the effects of nuclear fission decay products). “What we’ve seen so far is a slow increase directly after the Fukushima accident,” Jull said, noting that while Thiemens’ research showed radioactivity in the air took about five days to cross the Pacific Ocean, it takes about two to three years for water to cross the Pacific. “Now we’re looking for a larger (reading), which should happen soon,” Jull said, noting that his students’ research is “all part of building a picture of the disposal of this material over time and how long it takes to get over here. “We can then use that for modeling ocean circulation,” he said. “That would have some
significance to future possible (nuclear) accidents and things like that.” Jull said studies off the coast near Fukushima in 2011 testing for levels of iodine-129 and iodine-131 — produced when uranium or plutonium break down during the nuclear process — showed an increase of a factor of about 50. Iodine-129 is being dumped into the Atlantic Ocean consistently by nuclear reprocessing plants in France and England, Jull said. Asked if there is a danger of this material entering the ocean, Jull said, “I guess if we continue to dump large amounts of radioactivity into the ocean that’s not a good thing, but in the short term it’s not. People have know this for a long time and are sort of tracking it.” Given the size of the Pacific Ocean Jull said radioactivity from Fukushima present in water reaching the West Coast of the United States is “dispersed and at a very low level.” “In general, the public tends to overreact to radioactivity,” he said. Yet, Thiemens believes it is important to continue monitoring radiation levels from Fukushima. “I wouldn’t go so wholesale to say there’s nothing else coming,” he said. “Even if you’re 99 percent sure … the safest thing is just to measure.” u

Traffic group weighs stop-sign requests from schools La Jolla Traffic and Transportation
By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla Traffic and Transportation (T&T) advisory committee discussed three trafficrelated requests from schools, amid other presentations, during its Jan. 23 meeting at the Rec Center. La Jolla Elementary School Principal Donna Tripi sent in a request for T&T board approval to remove some limitations on parking in front of the school. There is currently a commercial loading zone there, near where Herschel Avenue turns into Marine Street. Because enrollment is up, there are more volunteer parents and teachers on campus, so Tripi would like that area to be available as all-day parking. The white, passenger loading zone would remain. T&T chair Todd Lesser said he contacted the city to investigate why the commercial loading zones were initially put in place, but the representatives he spoke with said that it had been so long ago, they
didn’t know and therefore had no objections. The board unanimously voted to approve the change. In the second request, also from La Jolla Elementary, the school asked that a four-way stop sign be installed at the corner of Pearl Street and Herschel Avenue. There is currently a two-way stop sign on either side of Herschel Avenue, and a crosswalk — but no stop sign — across Pearl Street. There is a fourway stop sign one block to the east and a stop light one block to the west of that intersection. Lesser reported that during the morning drop-off and afternoon pickup, vehicles are backed up on that street, leading to congestion that could worsen with the installation of a four-way stop. However, he also noted the safety issue of children leaving school who have to cross Pearl Street. He said children often walk in front of parked cars and aren’t visible until they are actually in the crosswalk. Board member Michelle Fulks said when faced with a similar issue at Bird Rock Elementary School, parents and school administrators placed a sign notifying drivers that there is a school ahead and that children might be crossing the street. “That would bring attention to the
There is a stop sign on both sides of Herschel Avenue and a crosswalk across Pearl Street. La Jolla Elementary School is requesting a fourway stop sign at that location. Ashley Mackin crosswalk during school hours and be more reasonable than a fourway stop, which is 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” she said. Audience member Brian Dear confirmed the congestion, stating he works in an office building on that block and looks down at the intersection. He suggested installing lighted crosswalks that blink when someone is in the crosswalk, similar to those found on La Jolla Boulevard in Bird Rock. The board opted to table the vote until alternatives, such as the ones suggested, could be explored. A second four-way stop sign was
also requested at the intersection of Fay Avenue and West Muirlands Drive near La Jolla High School. Claudia Brizuela, from the department of traffic engineering, sent Lesser a letter explaining the reasoning behind the request, which he read at the meeting. Based on a point system to determine if an area qualifies for a four-way stop sign, the letter stated, the intersection qualified mainly based on traffic volumes … coming out of West Muirlands Drive during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. The traffic volumes on the main street (Fay Avenue) and
side street (West Muirlands Drive) were similar during peak hours. Of the 20 points needed to qualify, that intersection received 22 points. However, the impetus for the request was not included in the letter. Without that information, and with concerns such as drivers re-routing to residential neighborhoods should the sign be installed, the board voted to table the discussion until next month when they could pose a series of questions to the traffic engineer. More information on these two projects will be provided at the next T&T meeting, 4 p.m. Feb. 27.

From Bird Rock Crime, A1 Asked about shootings in August and December of 2013 at the Biltmore Motel in the 5300 block of La Jolla Boulevard, Ernesto Servin, a detective sergeant with San Diego Police’s Northern Division, said a detective and prosecutor are working both cases. “We’re going to continue to pressure the management of the Biltmore, investigate the cases and use the district attorney’s office to prosecute,� Servin said. “A lot of the people who stay there are transient and that’s a problem here in this community.� Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) member Michelle Fulks said when residents report fights or yelling at the establishment it gives police “probable cause to go see what’s going on,� and alert management “that they need to clean up their act.� Police and BRCC representatives urged those in attendance to report all crimes, no matter how insignificant they may seem — whether an aggressive solicitor at the door or a suspicious vehicle. Such non-emergency crimes can be reported by phoning (619) 531-2000, or online at SanDiego.gov/police by clicking on the “Report Emergencies� or “Report Non-Emergencies� tab on the lower right side of the homepage. When reporting a crime, it is important to get an incident number so police can follow up later. “If you do not make that report, even though you’ve called the police, there’s nothing that the police can do about it. Their hands are tied,� Fulks said. Reporting crime helps police assure a
To Report a Crime ■Emergency (imminent danger or crime in progress): 911 ■Non-emergency: (619) 531-2000 or (858) 552-1700 (SDPD Northern Division, Tuesday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. only) ■Non-emergency online reporting: sandiego.gov/police/crimereports/ startaccess.html Members of the Bird Rock Community Council and police address a recent rash of theft, vandalism and motel violence in Bird Rock during a forum on Jan. 29. Pat Sherman community is patrolled commensurately, Fulks said. “If we ever are allotted more money for police officers, they’re going to put more money where the crimes are,� she said. “So, if someone is in our neighborhood and they’re breaking into cars, even though they didn’t take anything, you still (want to) report that.� Officer Hesselgesser urged those in attendance to be vigilant, recording license plate numbers of suspicious vehicles, and the direction in which they are traveling. “Video cameras are especially key in these types of incidents because we can get the make of a car,� he said. “Sometimes we have somebody we’re keeping an eye on and we might just see the car and know that car is associated with that person.� Home surveillance systems have gone down in price considerably, Hesselgesser said, noting that a six-camera system can be purchased for around $1,000 installed.
We Are Buying ...Immediate Cash Paid
“You can look at that from anywhere in the country, from, say, your iPad,� he said. Hesselgesser has heard of surveillance systems that photograph whoever is at the front door and immediately send a photo of that person to the homeowner’s smartphone. Solicitors selling candy and trinkets in the neighborhood are often casing homes. Police urge residents not to give them money, and preferably, not to answer the door. “If you feel it’s harassment, if they’re casing your home, watch them as they walk away,� Fulks said. “Call the non-emergency line. Pay attention to the direction that they travel, what they are wearing (and whether) they are with someone else.� One resident noted at least a dozen highend bicycle thefts and numerous “smashand-grab� vehicle burglaries at a condominium complex at 5726 La Jolla Blvd. that residents were not reporting to police. When police recover bicycles, often the owners don’t get them back because they did not write down the serial number beforehand, Hesselgesser said. “They end up in impound with the department and then they get sold off at auction,� he said, suggesting that bicycle owners also etch a small identifier in the frame, such as their driver’s license number, .INE 4EN 6$AY !D PDF

■Bird Rock Neighborhood Watch: Go to Facebook and search for BRCC Neighborhood-Watch and photograph it for identification purposes. To prevent home burglaries, keep side gates locked at all times, Hesselgesser said. Combination locks can be used to allow access to pool maintenance crews or other approved workers during the day. As a crime deterrent in the dimly lit, largely isolated community, Fulks suggested all residents leave their porch lights on at night, add a peep hole to their front door and make sure home address numbers are clearly visible for police and other emergency responders. Rummaging through curbside trash is illegal, and should be reported. While trash is a prime target for identity thieves, it may also contain empty boxes that alert criminals to new electronic devices in a home. One woman said she sent a suspicious vehicle on its way by merely walking up to it, inquiring why it was there and letting the driver know that the community has an active and engaged community watch program — a form of vigilance Hesselgesser encouraged. “They don’t like you, Ms. Nosy neighbor with the dog, asking what they’re doing here,� he said. u 0-

From Restaurants, A1 Management partner Joe Matibag said since the soft opening in early January, residents have been receptive to the establishment, and have come in to check out the atmosphere and food. The Brewing Company has a full menu, available from 4 p.m. until closing. “We want a local pub-style establishment where there is a comfortable neighborhood feel and it’s a nice place to hang out,” he said. “We plan to cater to a variety of patrons, including beer aficionados and also those who want to try something new. We want to create a space for the craft breweries around San Diego to showcase their beers.” n BarleyanFigs opened Jan. 9 at 6830 La Jolla Blvd. where owner Constantine Coss and wife/chef Sofi Coss serve up Greek classics, along with coffee, pastries, beer, wine and homemade desserts. The restaurant is open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Appetizers include grilled octopus, kale salad with artichoke hearts and dips such as tzatziki (yogurt, cucumber, dill), patzari (beets, yogurt, walnuts, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar) and tarama (fish and lemon dip). Constantine Coss said most of the ingredients are organic and
get a good, healthy bite to eat. We’re really more focused on making this a great place for La Jolla Shores.”
At BarleyanFigs restaurant, chef Sofi Coss runs the kitchen while husband Constantine (not pictured) runs the front of the house. Ashley Mackin locally sourced whenever possible. One exception is the olives, which he said always come from Kalamata, Greece. The Coss’ had a restaurant in Los Angeles called Sofi for nearly 10 years and spent some time back in Greece recently. Now that they are settled in La Jolla, they were more than happy to open a restaurant here. “Our family is here so we wanted our business here,” Constantine Coss said. He added that he loves the area adjacent to WindanSea beach, so the restaurant’s name is deliberately written to be similar. “We want to grow with the community through the community on a step-by-step basis
and it’s happening,” he said. “The community is embracing us … they come in again and again. We have all repeat customers who bring their friends, and then the friends become repeat customers. That’s how we wanted it and that’s how it’s happening. We’re really glad about that.” n The Shore Thing restaurant replaced Squires Deli, 8080 La Jolla Shores Drive. Co-owners Bishop Thorne and Lamar Rutherford took over the Squires Deli summer 2013 and opened Shore Thing, selling breakfast, lunch and snacks. The Shore Thing accepts orders via text message to (858) 333-8933
and sells breakfast sandwiches, breakfast bowls, soups, salads, sandwiches and drinks. Co-owner Thorpe said the goal is to create a local spot, and use organic, locally sourced ingredients when possible. Plans for the future include “smoothies, more specialty baked goods, snack packs to-go and trying to work out some sort of delivery to the beach for the summer time,” Thorpe said. Destined to be a pre (or post) surf snack shop, as well as a hangout for breakfast and lunch, Shore Thing is open 6:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Friday, and 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Thorpe said, “We want it to be a great place for locals and visitors to
n There’s no Italian food, but MiaCucina, a fine Italian home furnishing company based in Florida, will open a showroom in the 7600 block of Girard Avenue in April to sell kitchens, bathrooms, doors and closets, along with furniture. Rosanna Klachky, the owner of MiaCucina, said they chose La Jolla for their first California location because the space and the clientele were a perfect fit. “Because MiaCucina is very high end, we know our clientele is in La Jolla,” she said. Additionally, after visiting similar spaces in Solana Beach and Mira Mesa, they were set on a La Jolla location because of the foot traffic, visibility and the fact that other businesses had also opened here recently. “We just knew it would be a good area for us.” All the fixtures at MiaCucina are custom-made once an order is placed. “We have designers who will look at the floor plans, the home and evaluate the clients’ needs and budget,” she explained. “From there, we send the order so everything can be custom made in Italy. From order to installation takes about three months.” More details at MiaCucina.com u

La Jollan hopes to replace Scripps Park restroom, needs help La Jolla

In other LJP&B news:
n Thank you Jafar Farnham: With more than $250,000 in the bank for the Children’s Pool Walk beautification project — which would improve the sidewalk area surrounding Children’s Pool beach — Minick said she wants to acknowledge major donors.

were some short-term suggestions made by the community (the gate). Our office proposed a longer-term solution, in addition to that, including a citywide Coastal Management Plan.” While the plan is in its development stages, it was suggested at the La Jolla Community Planning Association meeting that LJP&B help with that plan once implemented. “This plan will hopefully stop piecemeal solutions for problems on the coast,” added LJP&B member Ken Hunrichs.

What we really need is someone who’s interested in our historic fabric, like the cobbled wall by Whale Watch Point,” Ahern said. “Those little things around the community you could look at and say ‘that’s special, that’s old, we need to inventory that.’ We need someone with a passion for that.” However, LJP&B member Rebecca Morales said she was hoping for some direction from the Historical Society as to what should be considered “historical” before moving

By Ashley Mackin Judy Adams Halter, inspired by the efforts of La Jolla Shores resident Mary CoakleyMunk and her improvements to the Kellogg Park north comfort station, announced to the La Jolla Parks and Beaches (LJP&B) advisory board at its Jan. 27 meeting, that she wants to replace the dilapidated restroom at Scripps Park in like manner. Halter told board members that she recently hosted out-of-town guests for her daughter’s wedding. “I don’t know about you, but whenever I have guests in I am quickly reminded of how grateful I am to live in this beautiful area,” she said. “After the wedding, I went to the Cove for a swim. I went into the restroom and thought ‘for heaven’s sake, I need to do something!’ ” With experience in fundraising and event planning, the nine-year La Jolla resident asked the board to support her efforts and solicit volunteers to help. “We have a jewel and I just want to take care of it … but what I need most is a team and a 501(c)(3) nonprofit to funnel donations through,” she said.
Being a 501(c)(3), LJP&B agreed to be that organization, especially considering Halter sought the help of respected architects Don Goertz (of the Kellogg Park comfort station) and Ione Stiegler. Halter said she’s already gathered ideas, such as having a fundraising concert and renaming the restroom a ”pavilion,” to give it some panache. Several Parks and Beaches members volunteered to help, including board member Phyllis Minick, who spearheaded the Children’s Pool Walk beautification project, and Coakley-Munk, who worked to get the north comfort station at Kellogg Park replaced. Halter was also invited to participate in a meeting with the city’s Interim Director of Parks and Rec, Andrew Fields, and LJP&B chair Dan Allen, later this month. At the next LJP&B meeting, Halter will update the board on her progress and formalize her committee. Those interested in the project can contact her at HalterJah@aol.com

From Stop Sign, A9 encourages speeding, Lesser said. Additionally, bicyclist Judy Tahler said due to the narrowness of the bike lane and its distance from the curb, bicyclists are often too close to vehicles and high speeds pose a danger to bicyclists. Lesser said, “Traffic engineers found, while addressing accidents along that area, striping would fix multiple issues. Restriping would be a traffic calming measure, improve bicycle lane safety and position motorists to better negotiate the curve at Avenida Manana.” The motion to approve the proposal passed 7-0-1. n La Jolla Concours D’Elegance: Because there were no reported complaints after last year’s car show and fewer streets would be used this year, the board voted to approve the necessary traffic closures for the April 11-13 event.

unnecessary, so Girard Avenue will not be used this year. n Torrey Pines Corridor review: La Jolla Parks and Beaches Chair Dan Allen called upon the T&T Board to invite the Torrey Pines Corridor Project plan in for a community review. After hearing that the project — which will implement a series of traffic-calming measures to smooth vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian traffic — was in the process of environmental review, Allen said he was concerned. “(The environmental review) triggers a problem in my mind because I don’t remember when the community last got to review the plan,” he said, adding there was a plan proposed at least six years ago, but the city approved a different plan four years ago. “There has yet to be a reconciliation of the differences and I think the environmental review process is the wrong way to go, I think a community review in advance of that (would be more appropriate).” u

Kaiserhof’s classic German cuisine makes it a destination By Marti Gacioch Wiener Schnitzel and red cabbage, sizzling bratwurst and sauerkraut, beef goulash and hot apple strudel: Nothing says winter comfort foods better than hearty German cuisine. Kaiserhof in Ocean Beach has served only the best in these and other traditional German dishes for more than 34 years. Their winter specials feature wild game such as duck, venison, boar and quail. Kaiserhof’s owner/founder, Horst Bolter, grew up working in his family’s Stuttgart, Germany restaurant. After he received his culinary training in Germany, he began his career as a chef on cruise ships before moving to New York City. There he married Paula in 1962 and worked in several restaurants until the early 1970s, when he opened his own restaurant, the Black Forest Inn in New Jersey, before moving to San Diego. Horst and Paula opened the original Kaiserhof restaurant in Mission Valley in 1979. They moved to their current location on the corner of Sunset Cliffs and Lotus 22 years later, where Horst works as executive chef and Paula tends the bar. Their son, Peter, who has worked with his parents for 30 years, serves as chef and restaurant manager. “We serve a lot of veal dishes here, and our classic favorite is the Wiener Schnitzel (breaded veal cutlet),” Peter Bolter said, “but
bratwurst (pork sausage), potato pancakes with bacon and apple sauce, German noodles, bread dumpling, and many other Old World German favorites. Desserts at Kaiserhof are a feast of homey flavors, including their homemade apple strudel with raisins and almonds, Black Forest cake, and trays of sweet German pastries. And since no German restaurant is complete without an outdoor biergarten, Kaiserhof’s does not disappoint. Happy Hour is 4-7 p.m. Tuesday-Friday, with discounts on draft beers, house wines and well drinks. All drinks pair perfectly with Kaiserhof’s appetizer selections and large German pretzels. Besides offering 13 German draft beers, there is Kaiserhof Kölsch, which is brewed for them by San Diego’s craft brewery, Ballast Point. Kaiserhof also offers a full selection of both California and imported wines. u
Kaiserhof restaurant’s bar and dining room create a cozy atmosphere for patrons. customers also love the Jager Schnitzel (veal with mushrooms and cream sauce) and our very traditional beef roulade, which is rolled
beef stuffed with pickles, onions and chopped meat.” Kaiserhof also makes its own homemade

Choose a first course, which includes Chef Lockhart’s locally favored Toasted Quinoa with Yellowtail, curry cream and pita chips, as well as fresh salads and soups.

balanced, signature drinks using fortified spirits, house-made syrups and fresh juices.

anuary 11, 2014 marked a milestone in efforts to strengthen cross-border civic engagement and collaboration with the chartering of the new Kiwanis Club of La Joya de Tijuana, sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla. About 130 people from across San Diego and Tijuana and as far away as Nogales, Sonora, Mexico celebrated the historic event. In a show of unprecedented cooperation, members of the Tijuana Rotary and the Tijuana Lions Club participated in the festivities. Among the dignitaries present were San Diego Council President Pro Tem (District 1) Sherri Lightner; Captain Jorge Ceja Andrade, representing General Gabriel Garcia Rincon of the Mexican Army, the vice rector of the Autonomous University of Baja California Tijuana campus; Dr. Jose David Ledezma Torres; and Arnulfo Guerro León, sub-secretary of social

For Mayor of San Diego: Kevin Faulconer is clear choice U-T San Diego Endorsement
B
y all accounts, both candidates in the Feb. 11 special election for mayor of San Diego are men of good character. Both are experienced, one more so than the other, and intelligent. Both have long-held core values and a track record of consistency to back them up. And, when not in attack mode in a campaign debate, both seem to be personable, nice guys. Each can lay claim to being the behavioral and psychological opposite of Bob Filner, the felonious former mayor who was forced to resign last August. But politically and philosophically, Kevin Faulconer and David Alvarez are very different men with very different visions of San Diego’s future and how to get there. Those differences give voters a very clear choice. The choice of U-T San Diego ownership and its editorial board is Kevin Faulconer. Faulconer is the most senior member of the city council. He won his seat in 2006 in the midst of the financial crisis stemming from the underfunding of the city employee pension fund, and not long before that crisis was compounded by the Great Recession. He had a close-up view of City Hall’s fiscal problems and how they devastated many municipal services. Most important, as chair of the council’s Audit Committee, vice chair of the Rules and Economic Development Committee and a member of the Budget and Finance Committee, Faulconer has gained an understanding of the financial and operational workings of City Hall that simply cannot be matched by any other member of the council — knowledge that he used to play a lead role in bringing the city back from the brink of even greater fiscal collapse. Faulconer supported Proposition C in 2006, the initiative authorizing the council to allow competition between city employees and the private sector for the provision of municipal
services. Voters overwhelmingly agreed, approving the measure with more than 60 percent of the vote. It has saved taxpayers millions so far and with continued implementation could save many millions more. Alvarez, pushed by the public employee labor unions, opposes it. Faulconer helped lead opposition to the city sales tax increase proposed in 2010 in Proposition D, arguing that City Hall needed to get its financial house in order with specific reforms before asking taxpayers for more money. Voters overwhelmingly agreed with him, rejecting the tax increase with 62 percent of the vote. Alvarez, pushed by the public employee labor unions, supported it. Faulconer was a co-author of the comprehensive pension reform initiative, Proposition B, on the ballot in 2012. Again voters agreed, this time approving it with 66 percent of the vote. That measure alone is projected to save San Diego taxpayers nearly $1 billion. Alvarez, pushed by the public employee labor unions, opposed it. Faulconer was a leading opponent of the monster increases — as much as 900 percent for some businesses — in the so-called linkage fee approved last fall by the council on all nonresidential development in the city. The increases are already causing suburban politicians to try to lure San Diego businesses away, and are causing companies large and small to rethink their expansion plans within the city. Faulconer supports the referendum drive seeking to put the fee increases on the ballot for voters to decide. Alvarez made the motion at council to approve the increases and opposes the referendum. Faulconer opposed the Barrio Logan community plan update that threatens San Diego’s shipbuilding and repair industry. Alvarez, pushed by labor, made the motion at council to approve the plan and opposes the referendum that has already qualified for the
ballot to repeal it. Faulconer opposes the proposal by Interim Mayor Todd Gloria in his State of the City speech last week to increase the minimum wage in San Diego. Alvarez, pushed by organized labor, supports it. Faulconer is being painted by labor forces in this campaign as a rigidly conservative tool of moneyed corporate special interests, a right-wing throwback to a different era. But, frankly, he is not as conservative as many conservatives would like him to be. He now supports gay marriage and is pro-choice on abortion rights. And the breadth of campaign endorsements he has won clearly demonstrates his independent, moderate appeal. Among them: San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore, the San Diego Police Officers Association, a coalition of bicycle enthusiasts, the hightech life-science organization called Biocom, the Latino American Political Association, a coalition of pastors representing largely African-American churches, and Father Joe Carroll, the revered champion of San Diego’s homeless. Faulconer also has a solid record of bipartisanship on the council. He worked closely with then-Councilwoman Donna Frye in 2008 in support of a proposition that ensures that tax money generated in Mission Bay Park stays in Mission Bay Park. Similarly, he continually worked closely with Gloria to ease homelessness downtown and elsewhere in the city. Does Faulconer have the overwhelming support of the business community? Yes, and a lot of others as well. An estimated 80 percent of the money being spent on behalf of Alvarez in this campaign comes from organized labor. These are the same people who put Filner in the mayor’s office in 2012. They have their own interests at heart, not those of taxpayers. David Alvarez is a good man. But he is wrong on virtually every major issue facing San Diego. The U-T San Diego offers its strong endorsement for Kevin Faulconer as the mayor who can best move this city forward. u

development for the coastal zone representing the Governor of Baja California Francisco Vega de Lamadrid, who presented a statement of support and congratulations to the new club. Although Tijuana was home to the first Kiwanis Club outside of the United States and Canada and so giving Kiwanis the distinction of being international, this once vibrant institution closed several years ago when Tijuana suffered from an economic recession, drug violence and the Post 9/11 tightening of the border. La Joya de Tijuana is now the only Kiwanis Club in Baja California. The president of the new club is Pedro Cruz Camarena, the director general of the Castro Limon Foundation of Baja California, and of the Pediatric Oncological Center of Baja California (Centro Oncologico Pedriatrico de B.C.). Camarena served in the Mexican Air Force as a pilot for 25 years, was an exchange teacher at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, and served as a military attaché to the Mexican Embassy in Washington D.C. for two years. He holds two Ph.D.s, is a co-founder of the ASER network (Social Action Network) of B.C., and a professor of the Psychology of Mexican Society. His book, “Detachment of the Material and Philanthropy,” will be published in 2015. The Kiwanis Club of La Joya de Tijuana will have as its initial focus raising funds to help children and teenagers with cancer, and will later broaden into other areas of need. The new club signifies the emergence of inclusive volunteerism in Mexico that draws on a diverse membership of men and women of all ages and backgrounds from both sides of the border. It foreshadows a new way of creating clubs within Kiwanis International that brings together multiple clubs and redefines international districts. And it is a bellwether of hope. In the words of Dr. Camarena, “We have taken the first step on a staircase leading to service, humility and transformation.” To learn more about the Kiwanis Club of La Joya de Tijuana, please contact me at rebeccamorales@me.com u

The letter written by Rueben Rosen “Commercial trucks don’t belong in our neighborhood tarnishing our jewel” in the Jan. 30 issue of La Jolla Light is all true. I can only add that the kayak businesses are a nuisance in that they do not play fair. They leave their tailgates down and take up what little parking space there is. There are more than 10 trucks involved, make that 20 during the busy summer season. Over the years their negative impact on the neighborhood has increased. My suggestion is for them to take their trucks to their houses and leave them there overnight. This would help people who live in the Shores as well as those with businesses whose customers need places to park, like the restaurants. The large trucks that are used for storage are parked here by the week. How would Mr. Teafatiller (the

I am writing in support of the comments made by Mr. Rosen in the Jan. 30 edition of La Jolla Light. The kayak shops here in the Shores operate with little regard for us the residents. These kayak shops provide no parking for their employees, nor their customers. This in turn causes their business activity to spill onto the surrounding streets and robs regular beach-goers of the opportunity to park. Their small storefronts are totally inadequate to handle their flow of customers, so it ends up on the sidewalks of Avenida de la Playa or spills onto the beach. This further denies the enjoyment of our PUBLIC beaches by allowing commercial activities of these kayak businesses and now snorkeling tours to take place. I am certain if the Light would conduct a survey of the Shores residents and the neighboring businesses, they would find that most of us view these shops as a nuisance. We need to band together as residents to educate Councilmember Sherri Lightner and our other elected officials that these shops are not operating within the rules laid out in the La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance. Let’s all speak up so our voices will be heard. u John Sheridan La Jolla Shores

Tarnishing Our Jewel
Temporary water lines and other signs of unfinished work remained along Country Club Drive last week. Replacement of the deteriorating water lines began in November.
Residents Frustrated
City too ‘lackadaisical’ with Country Club Drive repairs
I
t was supposed to be an emergency replacement of 1,500 feet of waterline below Country Club Drive, but nearly three months after the work began, the City of San Diego has not completed the job. The delay has left residents on the curvy street, like Larry Scaramella, wondering why the city is being so “lackadaisical” about the project — given that there have been more than 10 breaks along this stretch of Country Club Drive since 2006, including one that resulted in the city paying $400,000 in damages after a break flooded a home in 2010 (the house was flooded again last fall, resulting in negotiations with the homeowner and his insurance company for further compensation). “It looks like Tijuana up here,” said Scaramella, pointing to mud, water puddles, temporary water lines running along the gutter and asphalt patches marring the center of the street. Two additional, albeit minor, water breaks occurred on Country Club Drive last weekend, Feb. 1-2, Scaramella said, noting that his calls to the project manager overseeing the job were only recently returned. Scaramella said he is concerned about residents and guests tripping over the temporary water lines, which have been in place since early November. “They’re just piddling along,” Scaramella said, claiming the city is not properly recompacting the fill, instead hauling away much of the dirt removed below the street. “What came out of the hole has to go back in,” Scaramella said. “That’s just physics. When it doesn’t you get all the potholes.” Speaking with La Jolla Light last week, Stan Medina, deputy director of San Diego’s Public Utilities Department, said the city has already replaced 1,500 feet of concrete and asbestos waterlines installed in 1953 with high-strength PVC pipe. He said the work was delayed largely due to difficulties passing a state-mandated bacteriological test (conducted at a city lab). “It’s state law that we have to pass two

Girls Soccer: The Bishop’s School Knights 4, Pacific Ridge High School Firebirds 3
Bishop’s girls hold on to defeat Pacific Ridge, 4-3 By Ed Piper Lucy Rickerson has a bright future as a sportscaster, judging from her narration when she was asked to describe her goal that put The Bishop’s School up 2-1 in their eventual 4-3 win over visiting Pacific Ridge Jan. 28: “I got to play that great ball through the midfield, and I got a touch on it, and the goalie (Adriana Carrol of the Firebirds) made an amazing save, and she came out and she dove for it, and (teammate) Gretchen (Cash) went right in. She completely powered through the back line. The goalie made another amazing save. The ball bounced out, and I just took a shot.” Without a breath or pause — great stuff! Right now, Rickerson is busy studying history, her favorite subject this year with World Wars I and II, and being a high school student. Her initial shot was set up by a pass from defender Evan Rossin. Cash and Julia Ralph, a freshman like Rickerson, were in the mix on the pressure that kept Carrol from clearing the ball from in front of the goal. Rickerson’s goal was the first in a flurry of three goals within a span

of eight minutes, 22 seconds late in the first half to break a 1-1 tie and put Bishop’s (4-0-2 in the Coastal South League, 4-5-3 overall) up 4-1 and apparently running away with the game. Chi Chi Chang, Serina Curtis, and Rhiann Holman were commanding the midfield. “Our coach (Brian Quinn) does have this saying that says the best
time to get another goal is within five minutes of the first one, because it freaks the other team out and gets us going,” said Bishop’s goalie Vanessa Walther-Mead. Sarah Chase opened the match with a goal off an assist from Sera Stotelmyre. Pacific Ridge (3-3 in Coastal South, 7-6-2 overall) countered with a goal by scoring machine Katie O’Laughlin with
14:38 left in the first period. O’Laughlin has scored 19 of the Firebird’s season’s 34 goals. Combined with her sister Carolyn’s 6 goals, the O’Laughlin franchise has accounted for threequarters of the team’s scoring. Rickerson worked her magic at 11:59 on the clock, then Barret Kearney, who had just been inserted into the game by coach
Quinn knocked in a goal to the near post on the right side at 7:03. Chase, who had handled the ball a lot, then again scored from straight out for the 4-1 advantage. The game looked like a blowout at that point. “We talk about it all the time about what wins us games, and it’s the intensity,” said Walther-Mead. The intensity on the Knights’ side dropped as the visitors were allowed to edge back to within 4-3 with 5:07 left in the game. It was no longer a blowout — it was nervous time. “We started to try to play too much in the middle (of the field),” was Rickerson’s analysis. ”We’re good at connecting over the middle. But they were getting back and defending us pretty well. We needed to make better balls over the top, and we just couldn’t find those.” That apparently clinched her new sportscasting position! Bishop’s held on for the win, holding on as well to second place in Coastal South behind Parker, who they hosted Feb. 4. u n Ahead: The Bishop’s School hosts La Jolla Country Day School in a league match 3:30 p.m. Feb. 6.

Bishop’s Knights triumph over La Jolla Vikings, 7-4 By Ed Piper The Bishop’s School girls water polo team, while regaining their edge, also regained their dominance over arch rival La Jolla High, posting a convincing 7-4 win Jan. 30 in their home pool. In a match marked by multitudinous shots on goal by both teams, Bishop’s Lady Knights avenged their first loss in 17 years to their cross-town foes three weeks ago by piling up a 6-1 lead just before halftime, then expanding it to 7-2 shortly before the end of the third quarter. Three Knights swimmers scored a pair of goals apiece: Jill Bushman, Kayleigh Schultz and Sammie Barlow. Bushman scored the initial goal just 36 seconds into the match, and Bishop’s set the tone early before La Jolla could score its first goal. Natalie Grayson scored the remaining Bishop’s goal. Barlow, a junior, said, “We definitely wanted it now. From the other time, we just wanted it more this time around.” She scored Bishop’s second and third goals within a stretch of one minute, 43 seconds spanning the end of the first quarter and the beginning of the second, bringing the Knight’s lead to 3-0. Schultz, a freshman who scored Bishop’s fourth and fifth goals within a span of 54 seconds midway through the second period, said, “I’m really excited we won, but I’m focusing on CIF right now.” Scoring for the Vikings were Karli Canale and Sophia Delgado. Why the different result from the Jan. 9 match? Bishop’s goalie Maddy Kafka-Asper offered: “When we lost the first game, it was
a rude awakening. It was a blessing in disguise. Our motivation level increased. It felt totally different (today).” Barlow described the play for her first goal: “I swim down the middle and go out (to the left side), and they throw me the ball and I’m right there, so I shoot it.” She added, “We’ve actually done that play before in two other games, and we’ve not really tried it in a league game. So when I did it and I got it in, it was really amazing.” Barlow, who likes biology and wants to work in zoology, said of her second goal: “We did a whole play to get me up in on the top side. Everyone moves out of the way, and the other team supposedly drops into the side. And then I walk it in straight (with no defender in front of me). That’s the first time I’ve ever got it (scored on that play).” Kafka-Asper was humble and gave the credit to her team. But when asked directly what she felt pleased about in her own play, she commented, “I was pretty much packing (blocking) everything. I let in a few.” The Vikings rounded out their core lineup with Scarlett Hallahan, Taylor Bertrand, Sarah Young, Lexi Atwell, and goalie Lauren Silver. Bishop’s Natalie Chun and Hannah Carrillo received heavy coverage by La Jolla. n Ahead: La Jolla hosts Western Leagueleading Coronado at home, Feb. 6, then travels to Cathedral Catholic Feb. 13, to finish the regular season.

Del Mar’s ‘Mother Paige’ makes news with her hand-painted icons
What brought you to La Jolla? I was born and raised in La Jolla, at Scripps Memorial Hospital, in fact. I’ve lived in La Jolla Shores all of my life except for the time I spent in New York City, the western United States and abroad. I remember walking on the beach as a little girl, as I do to this day. I used to always cross paths with Hap Brahams, our pastor from La Jolla Presbyterian Church. That beach is still so central to my life. Every once in a while if I go out later in the morning, I will see Bill Gibbs on the boardwalk. So many of us use the beach as a sanctuary. What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? There will always be the obvious improvements to be made, like the routine maintenance required for any other town or the humanitarian efforts that we can all lend our hands and hearts to. These things cannot be improved instantaneously. They require persistent effort from all of us. One thing that can be fixed instantaneously is our own hearts. In serving others in our community, we truly heal and fix ourselves.

By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt espite the more casual, contemporary use of the word “icon,” icons are actually part of an ancient tradition of Christian art, inspirational paintings of sacred subjects that may date back to the time of the apostles, when St. Luke was said to have painted images of the Virgin Mary. Icons were particularly popular during the Byzantine Empire, when frescoes flourished, and the art of iconography spread across Europe to Russia. These days, icons are being painted locally by the Rev. Paige Blair, rector of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Del Mar. Her works recently gained wider attention when several were chosen as cover art for “Forward Day by Day,” a national quarterly published by the Episcopal Church. How did Blair, who was born on March Air Force Base in Riverside and dreamed of being the country’s first woman fighter pilot, become “Mother
D
Paige,” a parish priest with a talent for iconography? “I was 20 years old, studying Japanese and preparing for a career in the foreign service, when God got my attention,” she said. “I was ordained a deacon in 1996 and became a priest the next year. In my church in Massachusetts, I had a parishioner who was studying iconography with a wonderful teacher, Rebecca Taylor. In 1999, I took a workshop with her and got hooked.” Blair continued taking workshops, adding beading to some of the pieces she created. In 2002, Taylor invited her to co-teach a workshop in icon writing. “‘Writing an icon’ is the traditional language used to describe the creation of an icon, which is, essentially, symbolic of the Word of God,” Blair explained. It’s a devotional act, a meditation; she has written two pamphlets about the spiritual practice of writing icons,

Let Inga Tell You
There’s more cookin’ than the food
M
La Jolla Cultural Partners
y husband is having an emotional affair. There, I’ve said it. Actually, if we’re being perfectly honest, it’s THREE emotional affairs and they’re all with cooking show honeys. I will refer to them as the Southern Sweetie, the Pioneer Person, and the Italian Temptress. It all started when Olof had minor surgery in 2012 that went really wrong. For a month, he lay in bed sipping his liquid diet and incongruously watching the Food Channel. I guess it was eating by proxy. You’d think that would all have changed once he could eat actual food again. But I know for a fact he’s still cruising cooking shows. Other people try to sneak a look at someone’s cell phone or e-mail but I’m trying to get a peek at Olof’s DVR. Which I would if I could figure out how to use it. Of the three, the one that really worries me is the Southern Sweetie. After walking in on the show some 20 times, I was dismayed to learn that the total number of episodes in the series had been … six. There’s not a whole lot of deleting going on here, a classic sign of food porn addiction. But I soon discovered that the
problem wasn’t a fixation on the food. Inga: “I didn’t realize you liked Southern cooking.” Olof (transfixed to the screen): Is she cooking? No, Olof is completely infatuated with this young hottie’s 100-watt smile, her big blue eyes, her blond hair, and her Southern accent that is thicker than the maple syrup she uses in her pumpkin scones. Every time she says “mah” (my), Olof falls deeper under her spell. When she starts creatin’ a casserole, or “buildin’ mah bourbon pecahn pah,” Olof’s eyes go completely out of focus. When she looks right into the camera, flashes that killer smile, and says (hopefully of the pah) “it’s super moist,” Olof has gone to another dimension. The premise of the six shows is that in each episode, she’s teaching some clueless codger who has never even boiled water how to make a “romanic” meal for some lady love. She is all encouragement as she coos at the codger with her drop-dead smile, “You could be a little more vig-rus with yer whiskin’.” Olof would love to be a little more vig-rus with HIS whiskin’,

Emphasis on taste at Stone Brewing World Bistro By Kelley Carlson ith an on-site brewery and eclectic menu, it appears that the 9-monthold Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens at Liberty Station has developed a rock-solid following. Even with the ability to accommodate more than 800 guests, reservations are still recommended, according to media coordinator Nickie Peña. On any given day, the restaurant is bustling with activity, as patrons feast in a dining room that was formerly a Navy mess hall; relax under the sun in a garden area with flowing water; sip craft brews on tap in the main bar; engage in a game of bocce; and watch flicks in the movie courtyard during the summer. While waiting for seats, many guests meander over to observation windows to get a glimpse of the brewery, used to produce small-batch, one-off beers for both of Stone’s restaurants (the other is in Escondido), special events and Stone Company Store growler fills. It’s natural that Stone’s brews are the main attraction here, having brought the company national recognition. Its most well-known brand is the caramel-hued Arrogant Bastard Ale, but the most popular is the golden Stone IPA with a bitter back end — it was introduced in celebration of the company’s first anniversary in 1997. The other two brews part of the “Core Four” are the Stone Pale Ale, which was the first Stone beer; and the Stone Smoked Porter, originally introduced as a seasonal beverage but now offered year-round. Although there is a heavy emphasis on Stone brews, customers aren’t restricted to the company’s brand; there are quite a few others that are on draft and bottled. But don’t expect “pub grub” to nosh on while quaffing a cold one. Stone presents a diverse menu that emphasizes the farm-totable philosophy, relying strongly on organic Southern California produce — including from its own Stone Farms in Escondido — to create many of its dishes.

See 10 Questions, B? What inspires you? People who serve and mentor others, inspire me. Mother Teresa is at the top of my list. It is my dream to write about the Mother Teresa Home for the Dying in Calcutta. I heard a story about a Swiss banker who gave up all of his worldly possessions to volunteer at this home, changing the bedsheets of the penniless patients within its walls. Karin Donaldson, Pam Farrel, and Christian vocalist Mary James all inspire me. I am blessed to be surrounded by women who inspire and mentor me. I have been taught to turn around and do the same. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Jesus, Camille Claudelle (one of the greatest female sculptors of all time), Scheherazade (for she lived to write and she wrote to live), Dostoyevsky (it goes without saying), Maire Jaanus (one of my favorite professors at Barnard; I took four of her classes and she was my thesis advisor. Never have I seen before such a collision and collusion of art, culture, philosophy, literature, metaphysics and linguistics all in one lecture, one thought and one book), my mother, Joyce; my brother, Nathan; and his girlfriend, Angel. What are your five favorite movies of all time? “Mozart & The Whale,” “Overboard,” “Princess Bride,” “Enchanted,” and “The Man from Snowy River.” What is it that you most dislike? Abuse of a human being in any way shape or form. What is your most-prized possession? My 6-year old dog, Sky. I adopted her from

a pound in Utah. She has been my love ever since. She has this amazing gift for giving hugs just when you need them. She is a Brittany Spaniel who surfs and kayaks. She has one blue eye and jumps for joy always! What do you do for fun? I try to have fun all day. I love to laugh and joke. When I have time off, I’m always working or creating or connecting. But in my down time, I love to kayak, sail, jog … soon I will be ice-skating. In fact, if a friend of mine were to suggest something active to do, I would most likely be up for it! What is your motto or philosophy of life? Life is truly a blessing! What would be your dream vacation? Hmmm … my friends have a sustainable yoga retreat on an island in Panama, where I once stayed in a hut covered in palm fronds. That sounds really good right about now. — Editor’s Note: Eve’s Crown will launch its signature conference series, “Protect Your Heart,” a benefit for young women in foster care, 6-9 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 15 at the Salvation Army Ray and Joan Kroc Center, 6845 University Ave., San Diego.

From Painted Icons, B1 which “Forward Day by Day” will publish, as companions to her cover pieces. Blair said that the process, which every iconographer has followed since St. Luke, consists of tracing an existing painting onto a smooth, white, gesso board. “The darkest colors get painted first, then you put down the lighter colors, to add depth, movement, and light,” she said. “It’s very symbolic — the move from darkness into light.”
The paint is applied, carefully, layer by layer. “The first color is a kind of green, muddy, earthy color, and you have to trust that the icon will emerge,” Blair said. “Then, suddenly, there’s a face staring back at you.” The last steps are gold-leaf gilding, and a slim-line halo, painstakingly drawn in the traditional Halo Red, “mixed to a maple syrup consistency.” Blair said writing icons is not quite as difficult as it sounds. “It’s a very forgiving process, in all ways,”
she said, with a smile. “You can basically fix all errors — patch the gold, cover up paint that goes awry. There are ways to heal any boo-boo that affects the icon, or the iconographer. I’ve made about every mistake that can be made, so I’ve learned how to correct them.” Every August, at St. Peter’s, she teaches a five-day icon-writing workshop. Enrollment is open to all, but limited to 10. Year-round, in between the many demands of her day job as priest of a parish with close to 1,000 members, (and her extracurricular activities
like yoga, running, surfing, and walking her two dogs) Mother Paige still finds time for her icons. “Sometimes an icon just calls to me, and I have to make time for it,” she said. The walls of her welcoming office are covered with icons, which visitors, not surprisingly, seem to enjoy. u — To learn more about Paige Blair, her icons and workshops, see her blog transformationiconography.blogspot.com or e-mail her: pblair@stpetersdelmar.net

tell anyone, but I’m trying to like these paintings.” At 4 p.m., she whispered, “There are some good paintings here.” By closing time, she forthrightly stated, “There’s lots of good art work here!” Such are the talents of the Library Art Committee whose members have a knack for putting together a fun event and turning skeptics into admirers. Exquisite, thin-crusted pizza, waiterserved, was again donated by Amici’s and mood music, like the instrumental “Santa Lucia,” was provided by Jim Owen on guitar and Kelly Dooley on violin, both of whom teach at La Jolla Music Store. Little Cecily Jeffery, granddaughter of artist Hilary Brady, said the painting “Grasslands,” by Teresa Vandenberg Donche, was her favorite.

Brady had three mixed-media paintings in the show, two of which hang behind the circulation desk. “I have been painting in my head since I was little, but actually painting (for real) the last 20 years,” said Brady. “My artwork just happens; it evolves by itself. I paint impulsively. I just go with it. I crank it out. My approach is totally intuitive. It ends up looking like a hallucination or a dream. “This one, which I call, ‘And the Chair Stepped Up to the Vase,’ is a historical document. It’s for my kids. It’s all about mom’s past — all the images come from my childhood.” Cree Scudder has two paintings in the show that she refers to as “Road Pictures.” “My husband and I drive across the country for two-to-three weeks twice a year to visit relatives.

She says her images are something like a totem pole where images are stacked one on top of another. The paintings may be many layers thick as she keeps painting over things until she feels satisfied with her work. Scudder said there is not any social commentary in her art work, just things she likes. “Was van Gogh making a social comment when he painted his wheat fields?” she asks. “You have got to paint what you feel. Get what’s on the inside out.” Faith Fleury submitted a Jackson Pollackstyle work titled “Delicious Torrent” that looks like a bomb went off in a confetti

factory. She didn’t use a paint brush, instead she worked with a palette knife. “Abstract painting is very challenging. You have to first be good at regular art before you can do a good abstract work,” Fleury said. “There’s no social commentary here, just upbeat, happy, joyous celebration!” Fleury said she worked as a corporate financial analyst before she became a painter. “When you work for some company in the business world, you often lose a big part of yourself or who you really are. Finally in my art work, I have come home to my true self.” Elissa Lieberman has a portrait of a young woman in the show that she calls “Girl with a Flower.” There is something spiritual about the painting. It resembles a Byzantine icon. Lieberman said she felt a

little nervous about how her abstract would be viewed because she is usually a portrait painter. She’s taught at University of San Diego, San Diego State and Southwestern College. “I am always trying to paint women. I am usually the woman in the painting. It may not look like me, but it is me. There is usually tragedy and drama in my work, but no social commentary. I think the greatest paintings were just paintings — that’s all!” The best work in the show is a pair of similar renderings of a young woman titled “The Third Bridesmaid,” by Linda Kardoff. They seem to be a psychological profile of the-one-least-likely-to-catch-the-bouquet, and are well-balanced creations that catch your eye when you enter the room and grow on you with examination. Fellow artist Lieberman said the craftsmanship
involved is superior. Art committee chief Arlene Powers explained that the group is committed to growing the library gallery as a means of promoting local art and helping the library financially through the sale of the paintings exhibited. “This is a good place to buy art because we can offer lower than normal prices and your cost can be taken as a tax deduction,” Powers said. “In the future, we hope to make these traveling shows and take them to the new main library downtown, and then bring some of their artwork back up here to show.” u — The “Big Art Show” will remain in the Community Room at the La Jolla Library, 7555 Draper Ave. through March.

Youth places third at national figure skating competition By Ashley Mackin Max Lake, a La Jolla resident and Muirlands Middle School student, recently competed at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Boston, and placed third in his division. Not only does 11-year-old Max want to compete at next year’s (and future) competitions, he wants to place even higher in future years. “I want to do well at Nationals every year,” Max said. “I’m going to do my (skating) program a lot to make it consistent, so when it comes to nationals, it’s just another run-through.” To ensure that happens, he practices two hours a day, five days a week, at the La Jolla Figure Skating Club at UTC Ice Sports Center. Max also plans to perfect the jumps and spins he loves to do. “My favorite is the double axle,” he said, as if it was easy. “You skate backwards and you lean forward, put one foot in the ice and put

— Max Lake
11-year-old La Jollan and Top 3 finisher in his division at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships your momentum forward and do two-and-a-half rotations. It just feels good to be in the air for a while.” The maneuver took him a year to learn, but he started practicing when he was 6 years old. His skating career started when he was less than 2 years old. His mother, Stina, said Max began skating because his older sister, Maya, likes to ice skate, and he would get impatient waiting for her. “She was 4 and he wouldn’t sit still and would disappear at UTC. I would be tying her skates and
would turn around and he would be gone,” she said. “So the coach said ‘put him on the ice’ and we thought, ‘you have to be kidding, he’s 22 months old!’’ but we gave it a try because it was easier to keep an eye on him on the ice. He just sat there the first time, but eventually stood up. “(My husband, Edward and I) thought it would be cheap babysitting; ha! what did we know? It was cheap then, but not anymore.” The instruction, traveling and competition entry fees add up, but Stina Lake said
it’s all worth it. “Max put in the hard work,” she said in admiration of her son’s success. “It’s a unique sport that requires a lot of time and discipline.” She theorizes that he would have done even better if certain rules hadn’t changed. Age brackets were readjusted in recent years, so the juveniles category — which previously capped at age 12 — now includes boys as old as 14. “There is a huge difference when you look at an 11-year-old boy and a 14-year-old boy, and a lot of change when it comes to physical strength,” she said. Max is working on building that physical strength with other athletic activities such as basketball, soccer, tennis, golf and bowling. But figure skating is still his first choice, and likes the fact that not a lot of young children ice skate. “I think it’s a good thing because if a lot of people did it, I wouldn’t have as much space to practice,” he said. u

A week after Rachel died, her parents found an essay she wrote the month before for a class assignment. She called it, “My Ethics. My Codes of Life.” Therein, she urged everyone to start a
chain reaction of compassion and listed five challenges. “Rachel was a normal teenager. She made mistakes and didn’t get the best grades all the time and there were times she struggled,” Nourbakhsh said. “But look at the impact one person could make.”

By Ashley Mackin Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” That’s partly the basis for Rachel’s Challenge, an organization aimed at creating safer, kinder learning environments, and equipping people of all ages with knowledge on how to make the world a better place. Rachel’s Challenge is named for Rachel Joy Scott, the first student to die during the Columbine High School massacre of 1999. La Jolla High School students, thanks to their new Kindness Counts Club, were able to attend a Rachel’s Challenge presentation by speaker Ali Nourbakhsh on Jan. 29. Over the course of two assemblies, a voluntary meeting and a parents’ meeting that evening, he explained the five elements of Rachel’s Challenge and little bit about her life and mission. His presentation opened with information, including newscasts and videos, about the tragic Columbine shooting, at which 12 students, one teacher and the two shooters died in less than one

Rachel’s five challenges
n 1) Look for the best in others and remove prejudice. “I’ve been guilty of prejudice. Prejudice just means judging someone before you get to know them. That’s all that means,” Nourbakhsh said. He proceeded to ask if anyone, honestly, has judged someone before they got to know them, to which students reluctantly raised their hands (or raised them just a little bit). He explained that Rachel believed everyone deserves three chances to show who they really are, and hoped that people will give others those three chances. n 2) Dream big and believe in yourself, and write down your goals. “It doesn’t matter how physically small you are, the labels on your clothes or how much money you have, you have to believe in yourself. And write it down, because once it’s written down it’s not just a dream,” Nourbakhsh said. Rachel kept many journals, including one that was in her backpack the day she died. A photo of the back cover shows there is a bullet hole in the corner of the journal. n 3) Choose to have positive influences and choose to be a

positive influence. “I’m not here to tell you what a positive influence is, I don’t want to do that, I have no right to do that,” Nourbakhsh said. “But those you surround yourself with will shape who you will become.” He added that Rachel said, in a letter to her cousin, “Don’t let your character change color with your environment.” Rachel herself was a positive influence and proved it when she sat with a new student at lunch — what no one knew was that girl had lost her mother that year. For that student, Nourbakhsh said, “Her worst day became her best day because one person reached out to her. All around us, there are people with things going on. They are going on and nobody has any idea. They also have no idea how the decision to reach out to someone might brighten their day or their week … or you might alter their life.” n 4) Speak with kindness. “Sounds easy enough,” Nourbakhsh joked of the last challenge explained during the assembly. “But your words have power and every day you have the opportunity to make a decision about what to do with that power. You can break someone down or you can help him or her heal.” He ended the meeting by asking students to sit with their eyes
At the voluntary Rachel’s Challenge assembly at La Jolla High, about 100 students learn how to set off a chain reaction of kindness. closed and think of their loved ones. “In the next three days, go to each of those people and tell them what they mean to you. Not in a joking way, but in your own way. When they are not here, you will be so happy you did, you won’t regret it for one second.” n 5) Following the presentation, there was a voluntary workshop to train those interested on how to start a chain reaction of kindness, the fifth of Rachel’s Challenges. First, the group of about 100 discussed what needed to change in their school environment. Suggestions included: the pressure to meet the idea of “perfect” as created by social media, shaming each other for not coming from a
wealthy family, and being exclusive with cliques. They also covered the topic of bullying. Nourbakhsh offered some “secrets” as to why some children act like bullies, contending that no one is born a bully. “Some kids act like a bully because they are afraid, they are going through a rough time, or nobody has ever reached out to them,” he said. “Imagine if you were the first person ever to reach out to that person.” Next, they discussed strategies to use if they witness bullying. These ranged from removing the student being bullied, a la “Hey man, can I talk to you over here for a second?” to waiting until the
situation is over to ask if the bullied student is OK. They were also given ideas, such as welcoming a new student with a tour or sitting with them at lunch, or starting a social media project where students post positive notes on their friends’ public Facebook pages. Nourbakhsh emphasized, “We want some ‘likes’ on that thing.” The students pledged to implement both random and targeted acts of kindness throughout the year. Senior Allison Dowd was excited to get started. “One thing I took from the assembly that made me want to come to this meeting is that it wasn’t spitting information at us and saying ‘do this’ or ‘don’t do that,’” she said. “This was more incorporating ideas into our life and the social environment of the school. (Nourbakhsh) was pulling us in and making us feel like a part of something bigger. It was inclusive and it made us feel needed.” Dowd pointed out that her fellow students who participated in the meeting earned “major respect.” As the students were dismissed to go out into the world with their new perspective, Nourbakhsh said, “It’s not called Rachel-makes-iteasy, it’s called Rachel’s Challenge. So it will be a challenge, but stick with it. You never know how far a little kindness can go.” u

Bake Sale Success
T
hree fourth-grade students from The Children’s School (Maiven, Ellie and Riley) held a bake sale Jan. 24 that raised $182.50, which the students donated to the Protect Seals campaign run by The Humane Society. The trio is part of the school’s Green Team, a faculty-led club focusing on environmental awareness. The idea for the bake sale came about through their interest in issues concerning the oceans and a desire to help protect harp seals. The students were responsible for all aspects of the bake sale, including advertising, soliciting donations, and selling the baked goods. u Courtesy

Girl Scout Troup’s rummage sale will benefit Room to Read Cadette Girl Scout Troop 3329 will host a rummage sale from 8 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Feb. 8 at the La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. to raise funds for Room to Read. The nonprofit organization helps girls in developing countries receive an education, and promotes literacy by building libraries and publishing children’s books in their native languages. The rummage sale will also feature baked goods and a $1 used book sale. For every used book sold at $1, a new Room to Read-published book will be purchased. Leora Langs, director of the San Diego region, will be on hand to speak with anyone interested in Room to Read and the children it serves. Troop Leader Linda Perreault said the rummage sale is the Scouts’ Silver Award Project. The Silver Award is the second highest award in Girl Scouting and involves 50 hours of community service. Last Spring, some of the troop members volunteered at a screening of “Girl Rising,” in Encinitas. The film features compelling stories about young women throughout Asia and Africa who live in severe poverty and are unable to afford secondary education. Many of their parents are illiterate and must survive on an average of $1 a day. Perreault said the movie inspired the Scouts to raise money for Room to Read and help other girls who live in distant places and

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

Lots will be new in Old Globe’s ‘The Winter’s Tale’ By Diana Saenger The Old Globe Theatre’s Artistic Director Barry Edelstein will achieve an innovative first this month when he makes his Old Globe directorial debut with Shakespeare’s mesmerizing “The Winter’s Tale.” The show will also be the first time in more than a decade that a Shakespearean production will take the Globe’s indoor stage. Edelstein, a stage director, producer, author, educator and recognized leading The Old Globe’s Artistic authority on the Director Barry Edelstein works of Joseph Moran Shakespeare in the United States, is very fond of this particular Shakespeare play. “I love being around ‘The Winter’s Tale’ because it’s so magical and moving,” Edelstein said. “And being here for a while now, I get a sense the community is really interested in getting a look at Shakespeare under artificial light.” Due to its mix of humor and drama, “The Winter’s Tale” is labeled one of Shakespeare’s “problem plays.” It centers on the King of Sicily, Leontes, suspected affair between his wife, Hermione, and his best friend, Polixenes, the King of Bohemia.

Leontes be so cruel as to imprison his pregnant wife and order the baby killed? Luckily, there’s much comic relief in the acts that follow this dramatic cliffhanger. “ ‘The Winter’s Tale’ has been my favorite Shakespeare play for a long time,” Edelstein said. “It’s redemptive and a magical ending is a big reason. Also, it has so many things I love about Shakespeare — there’s the tragic serious drama, then the second act is a light, beguiling and funny comedy as things come together and bring us to a third place that’s different than anything else he wrote.” This production of “The Winter’s Tale” has a new musical score by Michael Torke, who’s scored everything from plays to operas and even music for the Olympics. “I directed this play before in New York and commissioned Michael to write the piano score for it then,” Edelstein said. “I asked him to come back and develop it, and he made some changes. He’s a big deal in the world of classical music. It’s fun to welcome him to the Globe and deal with Shakespeare music from such an unusual perspective because it’s not conventional, theatrical, incidental music; it’s much more complex and rich.” The cast for the play includes a mix of seasoned Globe resident artists, some new actors to the Globe and actors from the Old Globe/USD M.F.A program. Noted stage and screen actor Billy Campbell (the TV movie “Killing Lincoln” and SyFy Channel’s “Helix”) was excited to return to the Globe
Paul Michael Valley appears as Polixenes, Natacha Roi as Hermione and Billy Campbell as Leontes in William Shakespeare’s ‘The Winter’s Tale.’ Jim Cox following his previous appearances in “Much Ado About Nothing” and “The Comedy of Errors.” Taking a production usually presented in an outdoor venue to an indoor stage could have been a problem for some companies, but not the Globe, Edelstein said. “As a director, I’ve always been deeply involved and a collaborator with my design team,” he said. “The Globe stage is not quite as big as the outdoor festival stage, but it’s enormous enough to do all those big musicals we do indoors. Wilson Chin’s design is going to look very handsome. He’s done an imaginative job creating a sparse and very clever design.” Edelstein said he looks forward to bringing Globe Shakespeare patrons from the outdoors inside for several reasons.

“This is a rarely produced play, so it’s wonderful opportunity to see a production that’s not offered as often as ‘Midsummer’s Night Dream’ or ‘Macbeth.’ “Those who have an interest in exploring all parts of the Shakespeare cannon should see it. Also, this is my first show as artistic director and I know people want to get to know me. The production really presents my taste and sense of theater and humor as an artist in a comprehensive way. I’m hoping those who are curious about the new guy will come check me out.” u
