Goodwill store to open on Girard Avenue Cove Stench Countdown: 473 Days with no cleanup action as of Jan. 1, 2012 www.bit.ly/covestench

Anti-substance abuse speaker inspires students, A4

By Ashley Mackin A Goodwill Industries resale shop is coming to the Village, currently going through the necessary permit review process with plans to move into the building at 7631 Girard Ave., formerly La Maisonette. The Goodwill store joins a list of 10 other consignment and resale shops in the La Jolla area. The agency plans to recover the awning in front of the store, which is why it needed to go before the Planned District Ordinance Committee at its April 8 meeting. The PDO advisory committee handles façade renovations and signs, and forwards its recommendations to the Community Planning Association, which passes its recommendations on to the San Diego City Council. In this case, only the awning fabric would change, not the frame. The PDO granted the application to change the awning fabric, with no reported discussion. Though it does not need to be approved by the La Jolla Village Merchants Association, a mention of the store’s arrival at the LJVMA’s April 10 meeting drew an unenthusiastic response. One audience member expressed concern it would “bring down the value of retail shops around there.” Goodwill representatives said they could not comment on when the store will have its opening. Meanwhile, Goodwill Industries has joined the La Jolla Town Council as a “gold member,” at the $500 level.

Motorists vs. Pedestrians

Survey says distracted driving is chief cause of accidents By Ashley Mackin fter reporting on the Pedestrian Enforcement and Education Project (PEEP) carried out by the San Diego Police Department March 7, which emphasized pedestrian violations, La Jolla Light reached out to SDPD Traffic Division for the violations made by motorists when it comes to pedestrians. SDPD Traffic Community Relations Officer Mark McCullough and San Diego Sheriff’s

A

Deputy Lt. Julius Faulkner discussed these violations and how the police are cracking down on them this month. The most pervasive motorist violation is what police refer to as “distracted driving.” McCullough said some of the other mistakes drivers make include violations of right-ofways and failure to stop at an appropriate signal.

Judge rules: Seal rope stays up year-round at Children’s Pool Lots of options for Summer Camps in the area, B11

Judge Joel Pressman said he hopes this month’s rulings bring an end to continual litigation between animal-rights advocates and beach-access supporters. Pat Sherman

By Pat Sherman A superior court judge’s ruling on April 12 cleared the way for the seal guideline rope at La Jolla Children’s Pool to remain in place year-round. Ruling in the case, Judge Joel Pressman essentially reversed a decision issued last fall by the San Diego Planning Commission, which denied the year-round rope. (It is currently up only during the seals’ pupping season, Dec. 15-May 15). Environmental law attorney Brian Pease, who filed the suit on behalf of the Animal Protection and Rescue League, argued that the San Diego City Council and California Coastal Commission — which both previously ruled in favor of the year-round rope — have a higher decision-making authority than the

planning commission, a point Pressman concurred with. The planning commission twice opted to deny the year-round rope, meant to keep humans a safe distance from seals, in lieu of allowing only the current pupping season rope. “It’s sad that this has gone on so long and has created such animosity and cost so much money for so many people,” Pressman said. “I hope that this hearing will put an end to the litigation.” Representing the Friends of the Children’s Pool (FoCP), the beach access proponents opposed to the thin yellow rope, attorney Bernie King said the planning commissioners had not been

Talk by former addict leaves sobering impression on La Jolla High School students and parents By Sharon Jones and Melinda Gaffney One bad decision. That’s all it takes to ruin your life. That’s what senior Jimmy LeBeau took away from the theatrical presentation by Scot Anthony Robinson at La Jolla High School last week. The Bird Rock Elementary grad was stunned and moved by Robinson’s talk in ways he never expected. “It shocked me how quickly drugs took over his life,” said LeBeau, 18. Another senior, Tyson Youngs, agreed. “It happened so quick,” the 18 year old said. “He needed to be popular, so he got high. And then he needed to get high, so he moved to stronger and stronger drugs.” Robinson, an actor and former drug addict, spent two days at La Jolla High School last week. He performed for freshman and sophomores one day, then met with them in breakout sessions. The next day he did the same thing with juniors and seniors. That night he spoke to 300-plus people (including 50 middleschoolers) in Parker Auditorium. His visit was organized by the Community Education Committee of the La Jolla Cluster Association. Principal Dana Shelburne said it was the most effective anti-drug program he had ever seen. Afterward, one student came forward to tell administrators that he had a drug problem, and that, because of Robinson’s talk, he wanted to get help. Robinson’s student performance is carefully crafted. He uses theatrics to get the teens’ attentions. He makes sure they

He was a star student. He was from a stable home. He loved his parents. He played Little League. He talked about feeling like an outsider at school, about being shy around girls, and put down by guys. He described how he wore a “mask” that hid his true personality, his true feelings. He started experimenting with marijuana when he was 11 because he wanted to be popular, he said. At first, he smoked for the fun of it, but soon he was smoking all the time. “They say marijuana is a gateway drug — it opened up the floodgates,” he told the students. “When I was angry, I took a hit. (He pretended to take a puff). When I was lonely, I took a hit (puff). When I was stressed, I took a hit (puff). When I was confused, I took a hit (puff). When I was

heart broken, I took a hit (puff). When I listened to music, I took a hit (puff). When I went to the movies, I took a hit (puff). Just because, I took a hit (puff).” Students laughed. He continued. “Just because, I took a hit (puff). Just because, I took a hit (puff). Just because, I took a hit (puff).” The laughter stopped. He said he smoked all through high school. His parents never even suspected. He kept his grades up. When he went to college, life’s complications and temptations increased, and he experimented with more alcohol and stronger drugs. After college, he was in a number of Spike Lee and Wesley Snipes films: “Mo’ Better Blues,” “Jungle Fever,” “Malcolm X.” But he also was using heroin, and then cocaine, and then crack cocaine.

His girlfriend confronted him about his drug use, and he chose to be homeless rather than get help. He lived on the streets of New York City, selling drugs to buy the drugs that his body now demanded. His life was violent. His career was over. He lived like this for a year and a half. Then he called his exgirlfriend and asked for help. He started the difficult road to recovery. He credits his survival to the love and support of that exgirlfriend and her mother. Stopping teens from making his mistake is now his life’s work. “One second, one millisecond, one wrong turn, bad decision, one wrong association, one not being aware of where you are standing, who you are with, not listening, not paying attention, can change your whole life,” he warned the

students. Robinson advocates abstinence for teenagers — no drugs, no alcohol at all. He believes their hearts and brains are too fragile — that if they develop a habit young they will become dependent on drugs. Or they might have a physical reaction that changes them forever. Or they will be emotionally crippled. Or that, while high, they will make just one bad decision that will result in a negative outcome — unprotected sex, a fight, a DUI, a crime, or addiction. “I want you to experience anger,” he told the students. “I want you to experience loneliness. I want you to endure heartache … I want you to feel. “Why? You must build the muscles of your heart and brain so you can cope with life without chemical assistance,” he explained. “Life is hard. It’s challenging. It hurts. It’s unfair... But what I am saying to you is that if I can pick myself up, 120 pounds, nasty bugs crawling on me, talking to myself, infection-ridden, stinky, never

La Jolla High to screen girls empowerment film By Ashley Mackin La Jolla High School will host a free screening of “Girl Rising,” a film designed to empower and educate girls through literacy, 6 p.m. Saturday, April 20, in Parker Auditorium, 750 Nautilus St. Also screening in theaters across San Diego, “Girl Rising” tells the story of eight girls in Asia and Africa enrolled in the female education program of the nonprofit literacy organization, Room to Read. Directed by Academy Award-nominated director Richard Robbins, the film explores the cultural bias, household economics and safety concerns that lead girls to drop out of school before their male peers. After a six-year investigation by a team of ABC journalists on how to end global poverty, filmmakers came to the conclusion “that educating girls is the highest-return investment you can make in breaking cycles of poverty.” The documentary is the result of their investigation and research. Rated PG-13, the film has voiceovers from Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Alicia Keys and Selena Gomez. While tickets are free, seating is limited, so those interested must reserve their seats at girlrisingapril20th.eventbrite.com Room to Read, a 501(c)(3) aimed at creating gender equality and literacy in

Computer scientists create game to teach programming

Research Report By LynnE Friedmann

T

eaching computer science below the college level is difficult, because of few qualified instructors for students in elementary to high school. So, a computer scientist at the Jacobs School of Engineering at UC San Diego and his graduate students set out to reach students outside of the classroom. The result is CodeSpells; a video game designed to keep children engaged while they cope with the challenges of learning programming. Researchers tested the

game with 40 girls, ages 1012, who had never been instructed in programming. Within one hour of play, the girls had mastered basic components of Java — one of the most common programming languages — and used this new knowledge to create additional ways of playing the game. Researchers are conducting further case studies in San Diego elementary schools. The ultimate goal is to release the game for free to any educational institution requesting it. Initial findings presented at a SIGCSE (Special Interest Group on Computer Science Education) conference. — More information at http://bit.ly/17n7XDd Gordon supercomputer crunches large hadron collider data Gordon, a unique dataintensive supercomputer

launched last year by the San Diego Supercomputer Center at UCSD, completed its most data-intensive task to date: rapidly processing raw data from almost one billion particle collisions as part of a project to help define the future research agenda for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. Gordon has been providing auxiliary computing capacity by processing massive data sets generated by one of two large general-purpose particle detectors at the LHC used by researchers to find the elusive Higgs particle. Around-the-clock data processing run on Gordon was completed in about four weeks time, making the data available for analysis several months ahead of schedule. About 1.7 million core hours — or about 15 percent of Gordon’s total compute capacity — were dedicated

to this task, with more than 125 terabytes of data streaming through Gordon’s nodes. One terabyte of data, or one trillion bytes, equals the information printed on paper made from 50,000 trees. — More information at http://bit.ly/16QznjC Smartphone app aides border crossings A team of UCSD computer science students took home third place at the 2013 Mobile World Congress (MWC) for its “Best Time to Cross the Border” app. The judges were from technology powerhouses such as Facebook and China Mobile. Available for iPhone and Android, the app uses realtime, crowd-sourced information about border wait times to help others decide the best time to cross into Mexico or Canada by car or truck, thereby reducing the some $17

billion in annual losses and 250,000 tons of carbon emissions that result from lengthy border waits. Aside from its practical applications, the MWC judges praised the UCSD app because “it’s a social, noble thing to do and … wasn’t only based on making money.” The app has about 30,000 users and is now the 11th most popular travel app

among iPhone users in Mexico and Canada. The student work was conducted in the Mobile Applications Group at Qualcomm Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology at the UCSD division of Calit2. — More information at http://bit.ly/10XXKbx Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.

Paying More Than a Property's Appraised Value

Thursday, April 25th · Noon & 6:30pm 5075 Shoreham Place, Suite 200 San Diego, CA. 92122

by Janet Douglas

What if circumstances force you to pay more for a property than the appraised value? There is usually a range in the acceptable market value for a property, so paying more may not necessarily be a mistake. Appraisals are somewhat subjective, and two appraisals won't necessarily register the same value. Property values are usually in a state of flux, making it more difficult to pinpoint a value when the market is changing. Yesterday's values may be out of date in terms of what buyers are willing to pay for similar properties in today's market. When the values are on the rise, buyers should not worry about paying a little more than the appraised value because appreciation will probably soon make up the difference. When values are stable or in decline, buyers are usually more sensitive to overpaying, even by a small amount. It is not always easy to find a home that suits your particular needs and desires, so there is nothing wrong with paying a little more than the appraised value when you find the right property. Plus you were probably in competition with other buyers for this property and had to increase your offering price to obtain the property. If you want to buy a home only if it appraises for the purchase price, protect yourself by specifying this as a contingency in the purchase contract and hope that this is acceptable to the seller.

served notice of the lawsuit. (Pease later told the court he’d personally served notice to the planning commission at its office.) King also argued that a conflict of interest existed because the city attorney’s office was representing both the planning commission and the city council. “There are concerns I have about the fairness of throwing out the planning commissioners’ decision without them being represented and without them having a voice in this hearing,” King said. “The planning commission shouldn’t have to settle for representation that is against its interests and is not willing to defend it.” Deputy City Attorney George Schaeffer cited case law out of Los Angeles that recognizes a city government and its various decision-making bodies as a single party in legal disputes. “Nobody’s being thrown under the bus,” Pease said. “We’re talking about a resolution that was passed by a super-majority of the city council in May of 2010 to have a yearround rope at Children’s Pool to protect the seals. … The only question that is before the court today is, ‘Did the planning commission abuse its discretion in overruling the elected city council?’” King then questioned why the planning commissioners’ were even asked to weigh in on the matter, and why testimony from the Sept. 27 planning commission hearing was not entered as evidence in the trial. “I’m a little surprised to hear that because … I offered to file a transcript of those proceedings and neither party seemed very interested,” Schaeffer said. A list of conditions accompanying the coastal commission’s approval of a coastal development permit for the year-round rope included the city establishing a “management and monitoring program” for the seals at the Children’s Pool (aka Casa Beach), King noted. He read a portion of a letter submitted to the coastal commission by District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner, stating that city has no funds for a monitoring program. However, Schaeffer said the newly installed “seal cam” at Children’s Pool “monitors everything that takes place there now. “That’s a red herring that the court should not consider,” he said. Schaeffer also noted that state Senate Bill 428 amended a 1931 Children’s Pool trust allowing the city to establish the beach as a marine mammal sanctuary. “The litigation goes on and on and on,

and there comes a time when this litigation has to end,” Schaeffer said, noting that the FoCP did not avail themselves of an opportunity to appeal the coastal commission’s decision to approve the yearround rope. Following the meeting, La Jolla resident and seal advocate Jim Fitzgerald said he was happy to see a resolution to a situation that has divided the community for nearly two decades. “The city’s got other problems to deal with; La Jolla’s got other issues to deal with,” Fitzgerald said. The ruling is the second blow dealt to FoCP recently. Last month, Judge Pressman denied FoCP’s request for a temporary restraining order to shorten the seal guideline rope from 152 feet to 130 feet. Pressman will consider FoCP’s request to shorten the rope on a permanent basis at 10:30 a.m. Friday, April 19 in San Diego Superior Court (Dept. 66). At that time Pressman will also hear FoCP’s suit against the recent nighttime beach closure at Children’s Pool ordered by San Diego Mayor Bob Filner. In an e-mail, FoCP President Ken Hunrichs said his group was disappointed by the ruling, though feels their attorney argued soundly against the year-round rope. “The city placed the decision in the hands of the planning commission and when the outcome was not what they wanted, they invalidated the decision by invalidating the process,” Hunrichs said, adding that he feels the planning commission ruled correctly when it found the rope is an encroachment to beach access contrary to the La Jolla Community Plan and the wishes of the La Jolla Community Planning Association (which takes positions on local land use issues, and ruled against the year-round rope permit). “After this decision, the community’s interests have once again been circumvented and ignored,” Hunrichs said. “The court has taken a political decision and made it a judicial decision to bend to the will of a city seeking to avoid the truth about the intent of Children’s Pool. ... “In all the legal wrangling, the city has lost sight of the reason the pool exists at all. It was a wonderful gift to the people of San Diego that has been allowed to decay in near ruin to let the city off the hook to maintain it for the intended users, to avoid the cost to protect and restore (it for) human use.” Though Pressman said he hopes this month’s rulings bring an end to the litigation, he noted, “I have taken my arms around all of the seals cases and I expect that I will continue to do so should there be any furtherance.”


www.lajollalight.com FROM Accidents, A1 Distracted driving A violation that takes many forms is driving while distracted, which is why April is National Distracted Driving Awareness month. In preparing for this month, the UC San Diego School of Medicine conducted a survey on cell phone usage and driving habits. The survey was conducted Feb. 8-March 31, and focused on the driving habits of San Diego County residents, ages 30-64. Overall, 715 participants completed the survey. Results revealed using cell phones while operating a vehicle is the leading cause of driver distraction crashes in California. The survey also revealed: 56 percent reported driving with a handheld phone and 92 percent drive with a hands-free phone; adults with children younger than 11 years old in the car were significantly more likely to text and to talk on a handheld phone, and 31 percent of respondents feel obliged to take a workrelated call while driving. Lt. Faulkner said while most people think of using a cell

LA JOLLA LIGHT - april 18, 2013 - Page A9

phone as the only definition of distracted driving, it can take many forms. “Distracted driving is anything that’s preventing you from keeping your eyes on the road and driving on the roadway,” he said. “People putting on makeup in the car, people reading papers, people trying to read maps, people having conversations with passengers — that’s all distracted driving.” For National Distracted Driving Awareness month, the California Highway Patrol and the San Diego Sheriff’s Department are cracking down on distracted drivers throughout April. McCullough said distracted driving goes “both ways” for drivers and pedestrians. He said when people are looking at a phone or iPod; they enter the crosswalk without looking up to see if it is safe to do so. “But we don’t cite you for distracted walking … when you are behind the wheel of a car you constitute a danger to others, so we do cite you for distracted driving.” Right-of-way violations McCullough said one of the biggest moving violations

Violation Penalties ■ Distracted driving citations: $159 plus court fees and administrative costs, which can surpass $250. ■ Red light citations: $500 for first offense, additional $500 if caught a second time within one year. ■ Penalties are flexible based on driving record and may be waived if the incident is a first offense.

Tips on Preventing Collisions ■ Officer Mark McCullough: “The best thing is to be a courteous driver or pedestrian.” ■ Drivers: If you see pedestrians on the corner, make the assumption they are going to continue on or step into the road. Start to slow, make eye contact if possible (if the person is looking), get that connection so you know if a person is going to cross into the roadway or if they are stopped. ■ Pedestrians: Before you step into the roadway, look at the cars coming at you. If you can make eye contact, that car is close enough to be considered a danger. You should not step in front of it. The car should be far enough back that you should not be able to make eye contact with the driver. he sees is right-of-way violations — mostly drivers turning right who get a green light and start to turn not realizing a pedestrian is at the sidewalk waiting to cross. He said when there are pedestrians with a green “walk” sign and a vehicle turns, that motorist constitutes a right-of-way violation. “If a person has already entered the roadway and is crossing (near) that turning

vehicle, that turning vehicle has to stop and yield that right of way,” he said. As to determining who has the right-of-way, McCullough said to keep safety in mind. If a vehicle has ample time and total visibility so they can safely proceed without posing any danger to a crossing pedestrian, then it is not a right-of-way violation. “You just have to make sure you are not close enough to pose a danger and that’s

where the violation of rightof-way is a discretionary call,” he said. This also applies to pedestrians coming from the other side of the street toward the vehicle. “If a person starts out and a vehicle starts to pull out and can clear it without any obstruction to the pedestrian, that’s OK,” McCullough said. A similar violation comes from drivers hurrying to turn before pedestrians enter the crosswalk, to avoid waiting

for the group to cross. “As you are approaching a red light and see a pedestrian, or a group of pedestrians — and this happens in touristimpacted areas such as the beach in La Jolla, you’ll get a whole pack of pedestrians — and a car will rapidly approach and try to do a quick stop and turn before the light turns green (for the pedestrians).” Stopping properly Failure to stop is a close second to right-of-way violations. Failure to stop at a red light or turning on a red arrow is considered a violation of a red light, whereas turning when there is a “No turn on red” sign is considered a violation of a sign, and both carry hefty fines (see sidebar). McCullough said if any part of a vehicle is behind a limit line (the line designating a crosswalk or a stop sign) when the light turns red and the motorist proceeds, that is a violation of a red light. Another violation within that scenario is not stopping due to speed. “If a person says, ‘I couldn’t stop because I was going too fast,’ that’s another violation, but the real violation is you ran the red light,” McCullough said.

The Gillispie team has thus far conceived of a Smartphone app titled, “ForgetMeNot!,” which will help senior citizens keep track of glasses, keys, wallets and other items. In February, Gillispie’s Chain Reaction science team participated in the REMS (Rendezvous for Engineering, Mathematics and Science) Tower Building Competition at La Jolla High School, winning first place for the Tallest Tower in the third-grade division.

By Pat Sherman The Gillispie School broke ground on its new Fay Avenue sports field during a ceremony April 9. The independent school at 7380 Girard Ave. (preschool to sixth grade) purchased the 7,500-squarefoot sports field site last year for $1,050,000. With assistance from faculty and families who donated to the project, the school has raised $1.6 million of the $1.75 million needed to buy the land and develop the field. Though the school has an existing sports court, it had no outdoor field for recreation and physical education for its 265 students. Dubbed Gillispie’s “Field of Dreams,” the new space will nearly double the size of the school’s outdoor athletic and play space, and will include a turf playing field and seating area for instruction. During the ceremony, Gillispie’s head of school, Alison Fleming, said students, staff and parents have waited 60 years for the field, which will also be used for afterschool activities, outdoor art classes and

Bird Rock Elementary sees SEEDS planted in beautification project By Lorene LaCava

SEEDS Initiative Project

Teacher, SEEDS co-chair

Some 100 parents, students, staff (including many spouses) and members of Chase Bank’s new Bird Rock crew joined together for Bird Rock Elementary’s second annual All School Clean Up Day on Saturday, March 23. Volunteers fanned out across the campus to weed, trim and rake. In addition, they loaded up wheelbarrows and applied shovels to move a palette of lava pot rock and five yards of dirt from the teacher parking lot to the front patio garden where, under the direction of Mike Shear, they arranged all in preparation for the installation of an Anniversary Garden. On March 26, Jeff Moore from Solana Succulents arrived with a flatbed of district-approved plants to install. Chase Bank volunteers returned to assist fourth-graders (part of Anniversary Garden design teams while in third grade) to create the school’s new Underwater Reef. This area will serve as an ever-changing spot for student art and science exploration. The Anniversary Garden was funded by the last of the BRCC Cookbook sales, and by the 2012 Rocky’s Walk for Charity.

By Ashley Mackin When La Jolla resident Lisa Barnhouse-Gal wanted to find a way to feed her family on nights when she is uber-busy, she had a hard time finding one that was healthy, locally sourced, organic and easy. That’s why she started uberfood, the new food delivery company that freshly prepares meals and delivers them to a home or office, though the home deliveries only began last month. A working mother of two boys, Barnhouse-Gal said she saw the need among her friends, who were becoming reliant on pizza and burgers. The company prides itself on ease and the ingredients used; the meals contain locally

sourced, organic produce and free-range and hormone-free meats and seafood. With uberfood, participants order the meals on Sundays and they are delivered on Wednesdays. The meals will stay fresh through the weekend. “I’ve tested that many times myself,” Barnhouse-Gal joked. The menu rotates based on the season and what is fresh, and dinners feed four to five people, and come with a salad, vegetable, protein and starch. Dinners average less than $20 per person. Currently only serving La Jolla, uberfood plans to expand delivery days and then geographic area. To see the menu or place an order, visit uberfoodsd.com

Advocacy group cautions women about allergens in fragrance chemicals A new report by the women’s health advocacy group Women’s Voices for the Earth (womensvoices.org) has found that allergic reaction and sensitivity to fragrance chemicals in cleaning and personal care products affects millions of Americans. According to the report, “Secret Scents: How Hidden Fragrance Allergens Harm Public Health,” fragrances in household and personal care products is one of the most frequently identified allergens. However, since companies are not required by the FDA or EPA to disclose fragrance ingredients, it is difficult for dermatologists to pinpoint specific fragrance allergens among the hundreds of ingredients that make up a scent. Fragrance allergy usually manifests itself in the form of red bumps, blisters, itchiness and blotchiness of the skin. Frequent exposure to fragrance allergens can lead to chronic dermatitis. Fragrance can also exacerbate asthma. But due to a lack of disclosure of fragrance ingredients, dermatologists face an uphill battle in identifying what is causing a patient’s reactions, making it difficult for the patient to avoid the allergen in question. “Every day too many women suffer from

reactions to the secret chemicals used in fragrances in their household products,” said Alexandra Scranton, Director of Science and Research for Women’s Voices for the Earth. “We need to know what chemicals are used in scented products so we can make informed choices to protect our health.” The report notes that allergic contact dermatitis, once a rare skin condition, is now quite common among children, and eczema has seen worldwide increases in the last decade. Overall, girls have higher rates of sensitization than boys. The Alexandra disproportionate impact on Scranton women is likely due to women’s considerably greater exposure to fragranced products throughout their lives. The most common cosmetic products associated with fragrance allergy are deodorants, perfumes and lotions. The most common fragrance allergens found in cosmetic products are geraniol and eugenol, which give off rose and clove-like scents. The most common fragrance allergens in cleaning products are limonene and hexyl cinnamal, which give off orange and floral scents.

Ability Rehab Specialists help you find your balance By Marti Gacioch Balance and fall prevention training is just one of the many ways the Ability Rehabilitation Specialists stand out from other San Diego County physical therapy services. “We want to help people learn how to prevent a fall because falls can contribute to so many consequences,” said physical therapist/owner Julie Hom, MPT, NCS. Hom earned her Master’s in Physical Therapy (MPT) from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston and her Neurologic Certified Specialist (NCS) certification from the American Physical Therapy Association. She opened her La Jolla service in 2005, and said she finds her work extremely rewarding. “Some people avoid activities because they have a fear of falling or losing their balance away from home, but we can help them regain their independence and live safer,” Hom said. With that in mind, Ability Rehabilitation Specialists will offer “A Balancing Act,” a presentation about balance, exercise and fall prevention, 4:30 p.m., Thursday, May 2 at their Pearl Street offices. Ability Rehab also provides outpatient assistance for people dealing with the effects of strokes, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease and other neurologic conditions. “We take a personal approach by looking at each individual and how their condition has affected his or her ability to function. Then we figure out what needs to be done to help them do what they were doing before,” Hom said. Ability Rehab’s three physical therapists are wellqualified to provide traditional therapy services along the whole continuum of needs — from treating people with

arthritis to dealing with the aftermath of orthopedic surgeries, like hip or knee replacement, to treating injuries from a car accident. “Our patients are ages 9 to 91, and we help them get rid of pain and regain their ability to function and get back to the life they hope to be living,” Hom said. ARS offers free physical therapy screening for anyone interested in speaking with a therapist to learn if physical therapy would be beneficial for their diagnosis. — Ability Rehabilitation Specialists, 737 Pearl St., Suite 108, La Jolla.

Father Joe’s starts gold and jewelry donation program Father Joe’s Villages launched a gold and jewelry donation program as another unique way for San Diegans to invest in the community’s future. For decades, Father Joe Carroll has lobbied citizens for donations — “cars, boats, even a plane!” Now, the organization that carries on his legacy is expanding its plea, asking San Diegans to search through their jewelry boxes and donate any pieces that are broken or that they no longer wear. Gold and jewelry donations are subject to further security measures than donations of used goods. All pieces are handled at Father Joe’s Villages home office by two staff members, photographed and tagged for identification. Any donation over $500 in value requires a written appraisal. Those donations appraised at over $500 by Father Joe’s Villages’ certified jewelry appraiser will get a written appraisal, which will be forwarded with a receipt to the donor, and kept on file at the home office. Items valued below $500 by the appraiser will be returned to the home office, the donor notified of the value, and the appropriate receipt issued. In both cases, the donor will be notified. The liquidation of each individual item will be determined by Father Joe’s Villages’ vice president of retail. Items will either be scrapped for gold at fair market value, sold in Father Joe’s Villages’ retail outlets, used at fundraising events, or sent off to high-end auction houses. Father Joe’s Villages thanks the San Diego community for its continued support as we bring positive change to the lives of those who need it most.

New eateries, care specialists open in the Village By Pat Sherman First came last month’s opening of Doug Manchester’s ultra-opulent eatery, Amaya La Jolla, at 1205 Prospect St. Now, Hake Kitchen & Bar is set to open in early June across from Amaya at 1250 Prospect St., Suite B10 (former site of Aquamoreé restaurant). Hake is billed as a “neighborhood brasserie,” featuring Mediterraneaninspired cuisine. The owners, Prospect Restaurant Partners, signed a five-year, $550,450 lease for 4,320 square feet. Mike Slattery of Cassidy Turley’s La Jolla Property Group, who represented the lessor with Robert Kuzman, said Hake will focus on fresh seafood. Its partner-owners envision it as their flagship restaurant, with others to follow in the San Diego area. Meanwhile, the 10,000-square-foot Amaya La Jolla was the site of an opening night cocktail soiree for the recent Concours d’Elegance auto show. Amaya’s décor and furnishings, envisioned by San Francisco-based designer Warren Sheets (who also designed the original Amaya at the Grand Del Mar Resort), takes inspiration from Italian palazzos, and features Venetian plaster, Italian marble columns and baseboards, sculpted tin ceiling panels, Jerusalem gold limestone, black granite, aged and distressed walnut, ebony, etched glass, hand-forged iron, crystal chandeliers and 18-Karat gold-leaf accents. Highlights of Executive Chef Camron Woods’ menu include his buttermilk-fried quail appetizer and braised veal osso buco cannelloni with beech mushroom ragout. Woods, who hails from Charleston, S.C., will offer nightly “Rustic Southern Specials,” including shrimp and grits (Wednesdays), BBQ baby back ribs (Thursdays) and smoked pulled pork (Saturdays).

La Jolla High needs to fix accessibility for disabled By Lilly Grossman La Jolla High School student

I

am writing in response to two articles in the March 14 issue of the La Jolla Light. Thank you for the disaster preparedness apps story and for the information shared in the article “Community Center hosts disaster preparedness class,” by Ashley Mackin. I attend La Jolla High and was also interested to read about the changes principal Dana Shelbourne has made to upgrade the campus. I have a different viewpoint. Here is an article I wrote that was published in the school’s Hi-Tide newspaper on March 4, 2013: Accessibility. In a non-disabled person’s mind, that word lacks meaning, but in a disabled person’s mind, the word “accessibility” is everything. Accessibility is how he or she is able to live his or her life as normally as possible. Up until 2011, there was not a need for La Jolla High School to be accessible. Then a disabled student came to LJHS. The mother of the student gave the school a to-do list so it could get started on what needed to be fixed. One of the things on the list was to have both elevators working. Both of the elevators needed new

GUEST COMMENTARY software, so the school fixed them. But that was the easy fix. Another thing on the to-do list was the bridge to the upper 500 building. The bridge was not safe for anyone, not only disabled students. In fact, when an architect came to evaluate it, he said the bridge would not be approved for an office building, let alone a school. That evaluation happened last spring. The bridge had metal railings, but it was open at the bottom, so if one powerchair wheel went off the bridge, there would be nothing holding the 400-pound chair, except those flimsy metal railings. The mom gave the school a deadline for fixing the bridge in 2010, when the student was in eighth grade. The bridge was not fixed until a week before the student started tenth grade. The school’s suggestion, so it would not have to fix the bridge, was for the student to take a different class! However, all the upper-class English classes are held in the upper 500 building, so even if the school did not fix the bridge, it would have to eventually. Luckily, in the end, the bridge got fixed, but it should not have taken two years! Another issue is the lack of accessibility to the football field. There are no

wheelchair ramps to get down to the field. If a disabled person wanted to get onto the field itself, he/she would have to go all the way around the school, up past the pool, and around to the big gate on the north side of the field. In a natural disaster, all the students of LJHS are instructed to go onto the field. However, the students in wheelchairs must go all the way through the entire campus to where they are told to go. A final fix for the school is automatic buttons for the doors on the library and main office. If there is a fire and someone in a wheelchair is in the library or office and no one is around to open the door for him or her, they are toast. Literally. Getting automatic doors is a big safety deal for anyone in a wheelchair. But there is the cost, unfortunately, and unless someone generously donates the money to get them, there will be no automatic doors. There are other students in wheelchairs coming to LJHS in the future. The school needs to get its act together and fix the things that need fixing before there is an incident caused by the school not being accessible. I am using this issue to earn my Girl Scout Gold Award. My project has just been approved, so I am looking forward to putting it to use because I am the student in the wheelchair at La Jolla High.

Runners to register in Kearny Mesa this year for La Jolla’s Half Marathon on April 28 n See related story on A21

I

n years past, the running of the La Jolla Half Marathon has meant street closures and impacted traffic in the Village during the last weekend in April. This ongoing event is about to celebrate its 32nd running! The first runner will cross race start at the Del Mar Fairgrounds at 7 a.m., and the last runner will cross the finish line in Scripps Park by 11 a.m. This is the main fund-raising event for the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla. While we cannot avoid the street closures, we hope that the changes we have planned for 2013 will reduce the congestion in the Village pre- and post-event. We are expecting our usual number of runners, who with their friends and families will swell the streets of La Jolla on the last weekend in April by 10,000-plus people. In the past, with registration and check in for the event at the La Jolla Recreation Center on Prospect Street, the additional traffic crunch on the preceding Saturday in the Village was a dis-service to the community. This year, to address traffic congestion concerns, we moved the registration for the half marathon out of the Village. Along with InMotion, our new race management team, we are holding the registration and check-in at Roadrunner Sports in Kearny Mesa. There will

OUR READERS WRITE be no registration or check-in this year in the Village, hopefully this will translate into less traffic snarls. As in previous years, we are providing shuttle bus service for race participants to the start and finish areas of the race. The map (at right) shows the marathon’s route through the Village. Again this year, the Kiwanis Club would like to thank the residents along the route for your longstanding support and forbearance of any inconvenience. Please join with us to make the 32nd running of the La Jolla Half Marathon a success on April 28! The bulk of the organizing and staffing of this event is by volunteers from our community. The proceeds from this event provide a significant portion of the funds that the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla provides to enrichment programs at our schools and worthwhile programs that enrich our community (Dollars for Scholars, Any Body Can Foundation, Meals-on-wheels, Semper Fi Fund, Challenged Athletes Fund, Guide On). If you are interested in helping out, visit LaJollaHalfMarathon.com On behalf of my fellow Kiwanians, I want to thank our neighbors and our wonderfully understanding local merchants for their

generosity and support. Please contact me (henry@ljpb.biz) for more information about the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla or to arrange for a visit to our weekly meeting — lunch is on me! Henry Chiu La Jolla Kiwanis Editor’s Note: The La Jolla Light will provide a first-person report on the La Jolla Half Marathon from runner and photographer Greg Wiest in the May 2 issue.

Village Merchants explore funding sources By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) at its April 10 meeting discussed several avenues for fundraising with members hopeful it can bring in more operating and promotion dollars for the La Jolla Information Center, which opened in March at 1162 Prospect St. EDTS Grant LJVMA met with the County of San Diego to apply for an Economic Development Tourism Support Grant on April 5. Board member Sheila Fortune submitted all the paperwork, and LJVMA President Phil Coller made the presentation, which received a score of 3.5 out of 4. While LJVMA applied for $48,000, Fortune said they would likely get less, guessing about $40,000. BID Council Foundation funds Coller said the San Diego Tourism Authority (formerly ConVis) owes LJVMA approximately $20,000 for advertising paid to the Tourism Authority for advertising at the former Visitors Center. “Funds were expected, were allocated, are owed, and we just have a cash-flow situation created by a conflict between the Mayor and the Tourism Board, it has nothing to do with our savings,” Coller said. In the meantime, the board voted to apply for a $20,000 loan from the Business Improvement District (BID) Council Foundation to pay for salaries and

La Jolla Village Merchants Association rent. LJVMA said it would pay back the loan over time after it receives the funds owed from the Tourism Authority. Ares Travel Hoping to generate sales and traffic to its website (lajollabythesea.com), LJVMA agreed to partner with Ares Travel, an agency that would allow tourists to buy tickets to local attractions and book hotels through the LJVMA website and its information kiosks, for which the LJVMA would receive a commission. Alan Suchodolski, president and CEO of Ares Travel, explained that there would be no physical tickets to keep track of; rather, tickets would be printed as needed at home from the website or the self-service kiosk. As long as both the attraction and the LJVMA find it beneficial, anything from theme parks, such as Legoland and SeaWorld, to next year’s Concours d’Elegance, could be purchased through the Information Center or the website. Ares Travel buys the tickets wholesale

and the LJVMA retails them out. On the condition LJVMA generates $100,000 in a fiscal year between attractions and hotel reservations, both LJVMA and Ares Travel would get a five percent commission. For LJVMA, the fiscal year begins on July 1, so that is when the new arrangement will take effect. Businesses that want to have tickets sold through lajollabythesea.com should contact LJVMA at (858) 454-5718. Uncollected funds Coller explained that only businesses registered within the La Jolla BID pay the La Jolla Business Tax, which goes to the LJVMA. “If they don’t pay the tax, that is unrecovered income,” Coller said. One member thought the number of businesses not paying business taxes was as high as 25 percent. Seeking that unrecovered income, Fortune pulled the business license report and discovered there was a large sum not paid. “I am invoicing anyone and everyone for every reason I can think of,” Fortune said. “So if you have anything on the sidewalk, if you owe any money on the (Public Right of Way) or businesses taxes, I’m coming after you.” Next meeting The LJVMA will meet 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, May 1 at the Cuvier Club, 7776 Eads Ave. or the Information Center, 1162 Prospect St.

merchants in our walk-able community. Only a true post office can sustain that economic engine.” Speaking with the La Jolla Light, USPS Regional Property Manager Diana Alvarado maintained that the VPO notice is not related to the pending relocation of the Wall Street post office. According to the USPS’s San Diego District Marketing Manager, the notices were sent to businesses throughout the San Diego region to “alleviate some of the traffic at the main (post) office, to improve wait time in line, and to increase the alternate access revenue percent for La Jolla,” Alvarado said, via e-mail. “Wait time in line and alternate access is a performance indicator for the district,” she added. “Alternate access is where customers can purchase postal services without going to an actual post office.” Task force chair Leslie Davis said her group has learned how the USPS uses VPOs as a replacement when selling post offices. “Our fears are being realized,” Davis said. “We may have slowed the train for a time, but it’s gaining speed and heading straight for us.” While some have questioned whether the USPS may be considering relocating Wall Street’s retail operations to USPS’s Silver Street postal annex, Alvarado said that is not an option. “We are beginning to canvas the area and should the (Wall Street) building be placed on the market, we will also pursue the option to right-size in-place at our current location,” she said. “The appeal period has ended so the (USPS’s Facilities Implementation Vice-president Tom Samra) will be analyzing these comments carefully prior to issuing his final decision.”

Town Council hears lecture on land use issues La Jolla Town Council By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) held officer elections during its April 11 meeting, selecting trustee Nancy Gardner as its new firstvice president and Charles Hartford as its new secretary. Re-elected to officer positions were President Cindy Greatrex, Steve Haskins (as second vicepresident) and Treasurer Yolanda de Riquer. La Jolla Land Use 101 La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) Vice-chair Joe LaCava offered a primer on land use issues to the council, which reviews a handful of community advisory group agendas each month, many of them dealing with land-use issues. As an adjunct to San Diego’s general plan, the city created community plans to further define the wishes of individual communities such as La Jolla. There are currently 52 such documents, including the roughly 100-page La Jolla Community Plan. “La Jolla is a very old community and it’s pretty much built-out, so a lot of what’s in there really codifies what we already know and love about our community,” LaCava said. “But when someone wants to come in and redevelop a parcel, this is the guide they need to go to. ... If you don’t use your community plan, then you have generic citywide zoning.” The La Jolla Community Plan also serves as La Jolla’s coastal blueprint, including the protection of coastal resources, from shoreline access and coastal views to land uses the community has deemed appropriate adjacent the ocean. However, more than a hard-andfast mandate, the community plan is more of a guide to the type of development encouraged by the community, LaCava said. “There’s a lot of wiggle room,” he said. “You’ll hear a lot of arguments on controversial projects about what exactly the community plan is trying to tell us.” While the majority of La Jolla is subject to the same citywide zoning as communities from San Ysidro to Rancho Peñasquitos (in terms of the specific development permissible on private property), La Jolla has two so-called planned districts — the La Jolla Planned District and La Jolla Shores

Above: This nearly complete home rebuild at the corner of Draper Avenue and Nautilus Street (across from La Jolla High School) is an example of a project that did not require community input to obtain the required permits, though some La Jollans are now concerned with its bulk and scale. Right: Joe LaCava, vicechair of the La Jolla Community Planning Association, offers a primer on land-use issues to the La Jolla Town Council. Photos by Pat Sherman

Planned District. Each provides a greater level of planning specificity (see Knickers sidebar at right). LaCava also explained the city’s five-level development permit process. A “process 1” permit application merely requires a person to submit architectural plans to the city to obtain a building permit — a route typically taken by those with routine projects in east La Jolla. “There’s no notice to the neighbors, and groups like the town council or the planning association don’t get to review it,” LaCava said. However, property owners within the coastal zone can only use process 1 if his or her project involves only minor additions or changes to a property. Development of a more significant nature requires a level 2, 3, 4 or 5 permit process, which typically requires community input and review. Purpose of the LJCPA Unlike other community advisory groups in La Jolla, such as the town council, the La Jolla Community Planning Association’s only job is to review land-use applications.

“Under our bylaws, we’re required to have the applicant there to defend the project, which seems fair, but if they don’t want to show up we can hear the project without them and then make a recommendation,” LaCava said. As an organization formed to “do good things for the community,” the town council decides what it does to further that goal, LaCava said. “Sometimes the town council has been very engaged in land use,” he said. “It’s truly up to you.” Two decades ago, community organizations in La Jolla “didn’t play so nice together,” LaCava noted, recalling disputes over which group should be the official voice to represent La Jolla at city hall. The solution to that problem was the formation of subcommittees that help the LJCPA review projects. The subcommittees are comprised of members from various La Jolla parent organizations, such as the LJCPA, LJTC, Bird Rock Community Council and La Jolla Shores Association, “so we get that diversity of viewpoints and considerations,” LaCava said. These subcommittees, including

the La Jolla Traffic and Transportation Board and the Development Permit Review and Planned District Ordinance committees, make recommendations to the La Jolla Town Council and La Jolla Community Planning Association that appear on the organization’s consent agendas — to be approved, or pulled for further discussion and debate. “Applicants don’t like that because it costs them time and money, but we think it’s important to give a voice to the community for a larger discussion,” LaCava said. One workaround used by property owners is the city’s “50 percent rule,” which people often use to avoid the full approval process. The rule essentially states that as long as 50 percent of a building’s exterior walls are preserved, an applicant can apply for a building permit, sans community notification and review. “There have been some creative ways of applying the 50 percent rule,” LaCava said, recalling a project in which the architect “kept 50 percent of the (exterior) walls, but didn’t use them for the new house.” In light of such loopholes, the city has considerably expanded its definition of the 50 percent rule. “Nobody cares more about a community than us,” LaCava concluded. “We’re really the ones that have to be diligent, while being fair and respectful of private property rights.” Preserving the coast La Jolla resident Ben McCue, conservation director of the nonprofit group, Wildcoast, also led a presentation on his organization’s efforts. Wildcoast, whose mission is to preserve coastal and marine ecosystems and wildlife, is currently involved in an effort to define the boundaries of 10 marine protected areas (MPAs), basically “underwater parks” located off the San Diego County coastline. McCue said La Jolla’s MPAs are subject to some of the strongest environmental protections. “The goal of marine protected areas is to help restore a lot of our lost (marine) abundance,” said McCue, whose grandmother resided in WindanSea during World War II, trading meat rations in exchange for abalone and lobster caught in La Jolla’s tide pools. That abundance no longer exists, he said, largely due to overfishing. “There are areas of La Jolla that are now closed that for generations were open to fishing,” McCue said, noting a newly formed “implementation collaborative” that al-

In the wake of the explosions at the Boston Marathon, safety experts from Signal 88 Security say there are steps that can be taken to protect yourself and your family in a crowd. For those who find themselves in crowded areas, the security firm provides these personal security tips: n Be Prepared: Before a large event, coordinate with your family/friends where you would meet if separated. And although it’s unthinkable, mentally rehearse how you would react if you were confronted by an act of violence, such as an explosion or active shooter. “Decide what objects you would choose for the best cover,” advised Tim Conahan, Signal 88 Security vice president. “If there is no cover, determine your next step. Run, hide or (be prepared to) fight (back)!” n Follow Directions: When you arrive at a crowded place, help maintain order by parking in designated spaces or as directed. Don’t ignore signs or barricades, which are often placed to control a crowd. Once you’re part of the crowd, stay safest by following its flow rather than going against it. Take a bathroom break before getting in a long line. n Stay Aware: Create a habit of scanning a room, event center or concert hall for the nearest emergency exit when you arrive, in case you need to escape quickly. Watch out for signs of trouble, including if those around you suddenly turn to the same direction and the noise level increases. Additionally, if you see someone put down a bag and walk away, notify security personnel, law enforcement or the event organizer immediately. n In Case of Emergency: If you find yourself in a situation such as the explosions at the Boston Marathon, leave the area immediately. Leaving will reduce your risk of further injury and allows first responders to properly assist other victims.

Francis Parker softball runs over Bishop’s 10-1 By Michael Ragovin Francis Parker School had their hitting shoes on April 11 when they rolled over The Bishop’s School, 10-1, in a girls softball game played at Bishop’s field. The teams were just not evenly matched and it was apparent from the very beginning. The Francis Parker Lancers began the top of the first with two walks followed by a single to right that brought in their first run. The next two batters flew out and struck out. If not for an error that allowed two more runs to score, the Bishop’s Knights would have gotten out of the inning allowing only one run. At the end of the top of the first, the score was 3-0 Parker. The Knights half of the first began with Madeleine Armstrong striking out. Sabrina Strauss grounded to short for the second out. Aida Ayala singled and Sabrina Moreno doubled and it was ruled a ground rule double because it bounced over the right field fence. The runner on first could advance only to third. After a walk to Shakira Trejo, the bases were loaded with two outs. A ground out to short by Abby Vickers ended the first inning with Parker leading 3-0 Parker went in order in the top of the second. The bottom of the second started with Grace Young striking out. Olivia Lafferty grounded out to short. Madeleine Moreno walked and Madeleine Morales struck out. At the end of two innings, Parker remained in front, 3-0. The first batter for Parker in the top of the

third struck out. The next batter hit a home run over the right field fence. Two outfield fly outs and after two and a half Bishop’s trailed 4-0. Strauss walked to begin the bottom of the third. Ayala popped to third. Moreno lined out to the second baseman and Trejo grounded to short for the third out. The first batter for Parker in the top of the fourth walked followed by a fly to left, a pop up to the pitcher and a ground out to third. In the Bishop’s half of the fourth Lafferty walked. A ground out to the pitcher, pop up to third and a ground out to second left Lafferty stranded on first. In the top of the fifth, Parker had a run homer and the score became 5-0.

Armstrong led off the bottom of the fifth with an infield single. Strauss sacrificed Armstrong to second. Lafferty struck out and Moreno walked putting runners on first and second with two outs. Then Trejo struck out to end the threat. The Knights trailed 5-0. Parker got a base runner by way of a single to center and Trejo threw her out trying to steal second. That finished Parker in their half of the sixth. Bishop’s managed a walk and could advance no further as the inning ended with three straight outs. Going into the top of the seventh Parker led 5-0. In the top of the seventh, Parker started with a double to right and the runner scoring on a single and taking third on a

throwing error. The first out was a pop out to second. With a runner on third and one out a single up the middle scored the runner from third. An infield hit put runners on first and second with one out. A single to left scored the runner from second. A throwing error put runners on first and third with one out. A single to left scored the runner from third. There was a pop out to pitcher and there were two outs with runners on first and second. Another throwing error allowed the runners to move up to second and third. A single to left scored the runner from third. A fly ball to left ended the inning. After the top of the sixth Parker led 10-0. The bottom of the seventh saw Strauss ground out to second and Ayala popped up the pitcher. Moreno singled followed by an infield single to third by Trejo. The third baseman made a throwing error allowing a run to score. Vickers walked and there were runners on first and second with two outs. Lafferty grounded to third to end the game with the final score, Parker 10 and Bishop’s 1. Although the Knights were behind from the beginning they played as hard in the seventh inning with two out as they did in the first inning. Grace Young pitched the entire game for the Knights. She was hit in the shoulder by a fastball that really stung. Even though Parker was behind by several runs most of the game, Grace continued to pitch as if the score was 0-0. Great work by the entire team.

Charting History

10 QUESTIONS

Map Museum hosts California collection by Jo Mora By Linda Hutchison alifornia’s colorful history and geography are alive and wellillustrated (and on display for all to enjoy) thanks to a new exhibit at the Map & Atlas Museum of La Jolla. The museum has gathered 14 maps created by California artist Jacinto “Jo” Mora from 1927 to 1949 and will display them through early December. The maps — or cartes — as Mora called them, are vibrant and lighthearted. They reflect Mora’s love of California and his background as a book illustrator and cartoonist. The majority of Mora’s maps in the collection depict California, including the entire state, the Monterey Peninsula, Yosemite, Catalina, Los Angeles, and San Diego. The San Diego map was commissioned in 1928 by city philanthropist George Marston to celebrate the 50th anniversary of his department store, which first opened at Fifth Avenue and State Street (and was sold to The Broadway in 1961). Visitors to the exhibit can purchase a reproduction of the San Diego map. The idea for the Mora exhibit was developed by museum founder Michael Stone and museum director

David Chase

David Chase leads the chorus with a Hallelujah! David Chase, Ph.D. has been choral director of the La Jolla Symphony Chorus since 1973. He also serves as a lecturer in the UC San Diego Music Department and, in 2009, retired from Palomar College where he taught music for 35 years. Under his leadership, the 130-voice chorus performs a mix of musical styles for the LJSC subscription series in Mandeville Auditorium at UCSD. Last year, Chase made his Carnegie Hall conducting debut during which the chorus performed Benjamin Britten’s “Spring Symphony.” He has led the chorus on numerous tours throughout the world, including a 2003 trip to the Kingdom of Bhutan, where La Jolla Symphony Chorus was the first western chorus invited to perform in that country. In fall 2013, Chase will celebrate his 40th year as choral director for LJSC.

What brought you to La Jolla? My wife, Ann, and I felt the need to escape the Midwest, and there was an invitation for me to take a sort of “non-job” in choral music at UCSD — just a glorified graduate assistantship. We sold everything and moved across the country on the train. That non-job turned into the La Jolla Symphony Chorus. Who or what inspires you? Every individual in my family; each in a different way.

Allowance futures: An investment vehicle for our times

A

La Jolla Cultural Partners

t an Easter brunch with friends, we were discussing the difficulty of finding good financial investments at a time when real estate has been problematical and most conservative vehicles are paying less than 1 percent. In a similar (if less volatile) market some years back, my now-husband, Olof (whom I was dating at the time), concluded after considerable contemplation and, more to the point, a lot of observation during weekends he spent at our house, that the

LA JOLLA LIGHT - april 18, 2013 - Page B3

investment of choice was allowance futures. The way allowance worked in my household at the time was that each kid got $4 a week, assuming, of course, that they got no fines for misbehavior. Additionally, we had a bonus point system whereby exceptionally nice behavior (extra chores, a considerate act toward a sibling, etc.) was rewarded with bonus points which were irrevocable (i.e. not subject to fines) and based on the theory that bad behavior shouldn’t cancel out good, and also that my older son, Rory, sometimes had more fines than the national debt. Bonus points could be cashed in for 25-cents or for staying up an extra half hour. (They almost always took the cash.) So if a kid was having an usually bad week, he could not only flatline his allowance but actually owe ME. So the way Olof saw it, on, say, Jan. 15, he’d negotiate with Rory to buy his April 1 allowance for say, $2, betting that Rory was going to behave and that I’d be paying more than that (up to the full $4 plus bonus points.) If so,

Olof got all Rory’s payable allowance that week. Rory, however, knowing that he tends to mouth off a lot and that fines may eat his allowance down to nothing (or that he’ll even end up owing me money), thinks that $2 is better than the bupkes he frequently gets. (Olof, however, didn’t want to take a total killing so he insisted on a stop loss order at 10-cents). My younger son, Henri, however, didn’t share his brother’s need to live not only on the edge but usually on the way far side of it, and tended to see a great deal more of his allowance than Rory did, often racking up substantial bonus points as well. (This kid could suck up like you wouldn’t believe.) So Olof was not likely to buy Henri’s April 1 allowance for less than $3 and probably even more if it looked like there could be good bonus point potential. Henri, who was age 8 at the time, had already attempted to get in the game by trying to buy bonus points with his allowance because bonus points were not subject to

true or false? Each year, April 22 marks the celebration of Earth Day, which is now observed around the world. True. Earth Day was conceived by Sen. Gaylord Nelson (D-Wisconsin) in the early 1960s. Nelson worried that environmental issues were not being addressed in the political arena. In his conservation efforts, Nelson Courtesy: NOAA organized a nationwide grassroots demonstration in the spring of 1970, to further promote conservation involvement and awareness. Support and interest in the activity was immense and the 1970 demonstration became the first official Earth Day, which helped inspire the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Air, Clean Water, and Endangered Species acts. — parents.com

Chart House cashes in on coastal view dining By Kelley Carlson ith a reputation for providing stellar scenery, it’s no wonder people navigate their way to the Chart House for dining. All 18 locations nationwide offer picturesque panoramas, but the Cardiff site is unique in that it has one of the few sea-level ocean views, protected only by a boulder formation. “During the day, our breathtaking views pan the coastline in both directions for miles,” General Manager Patrick Fortner said. “At night, our romantic setting with spotlights that illuminate the crashing waves is unparalleled.” Because the restaurant’s focal point is the surf, its decor is simple and inspired by the natural surroundings. The carpeting is a blend of deep shades that include blue, green and gold, while the sand-colored walls display warm-toned paintings. In one corner of the dining room is the bar with stools, low tables and chairs to sink into, and a TV dialed into sports. Upstairs (used for private parties and overflow dining) there’s a bird’s-eye view of the restaurant and photos of George’s, the original establishment on the site. Sunbeams stream through the skylights; uptempo music can be heard in the background. As a waterfront restaurant, it’s only natural that the Chart House features seafood, along with steaks and other assorted dishes. During weekdays, guests can stop in for happy hour and order house favorites such

Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story. n This week’s recipe:

Chart House’s Strawberry Spinach Salad as Ahi Nachos, consisting of thin tuna slices and pickled ginger on fried wontons with a decoration of wasabi cream. For those who miss out and still want to whet their appetite before diving into an entree, there are more than a dozen starters, including Crab Stuffed Mushrooms that are baked in a white wine sauce. And there are soups and salads, from the award-winning Clam Chowder to Beefsteak Tomato Salad on a bed of spinach that’s tossed in lemon vinaigrette with chopped smoked bacon, blue cheese crumbles, tempura fried onion rings and balsamic drizzle. Among the main dish selections are the Shrimp & Artichoke Linguini tossed with spinach, tomatoes, garlic herb butter and sprinkled with feta cheese; and the Blue

Cheese Filet Mignon, a favorite among the employees. Fortner advises Prime Rib fans to come early for cuts more rare. The children’s menu — which doubles as a two-page coloring book — includes coconut shrimp, grilled chicken breast, chicken tenders, prime rib and hamburgers. To wrap up the meal, options range from the Hot Chocolate Lava Cake, which takes 30 minutes to prepare, to the Traditional Key Lime Pie that is made with Nellie and Joe’s Key Lime Juice. Those who want to save money may want to consider Distinctive Dining, a three-course meal consisting of a starter, entree and dessert for $29.99 per person,

available Sunday through Thursday. On Sundays, the restaurant offers brunch with items as simple as French toast and more elaborate ones such as the seafood quiche, stuffed with shrimp, lobster, crabmeat, jack cheese and spinach. “Rely on our well-trained professional staff to guide you through your dining experience; they won’t let you down,” Fortner said. “Make a reservation one hour before sunset for that picture-perfect moment.” And for that perfect meal, Fortner recommends the current specials of Shrimp, Brie and Artichoke Melt; Strawberry Spinach Salad & Gorgonzola Waffle; and King Salmon with Crispy Potato Leek Cakes.

HuNt SLoNEm with his first solo exhibition in San Diego:

“Butterflies & reBirth” Sublimely decorative yet deeply spiritual, Hunt Slonem’s work is filled with light and color, with exotic birds, animals, saints, and Hollywood stars. His art celebrates the glory of life while underlining the threats that our civilization poses to the natural world. Slonem’s canvases emphasize an aesthetic of ocular activity; the viewer’s eye is set in almost constant motion, flicking about to take in the entire rectangle. The butterflies themselves come into focus as his central subject only after the few seconds it takes to apprehend the whole painting. They are rarely in sharp focus; their shapes are somewhat misted and often repeated, so as to create a pattern which itself must be uncoded. Again, this all happens in only a few seconds, before the creatures can be given individuation and appreciated as belonging to a distinct species. In all of Slonem’s work, after one has studied it for a time, there is seriousness about painting. The various devices that divide the space, render it shallow, thus keeping the work coherent in its own terms, adds up to a consistent investigation of post- cubist abstraction. By varying the moods and techniques of his work in fresh and exciting ways, Hunt Slonem creates a beautiful work that continually gives joy and surprise.

Hunt Slonem was born in Kittery, Maine in 1951. His fascination with exotica imprinted during his childhood in Hawaii and experience as a foreign exchange student in Managua, Nicaragua. Since 1977, Slonem has had over 250 solo exhibitions at prestigious galleries. Museums both domestic and international have collected his work, among them The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. Slonem lives and works in New York City in his legendary loft which houses an aviary for his 70 exotic birds. The studio is a work of art itself, a lush and sensuous environment, filled with not only birds and plants, but also a collection of Baroque and Neo-Gothic furniture, Blenko glass and brilliantly hued rooms that house a dazzling array of paintings in period frames. He also owns a Victorian mansion in Hudson, New York and two plantation homes in Louisiana.

FROM 10 QUESTIONS, B1 What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? I would add a “Disney Hall” … and that level of creative support for the arts. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Ay! What an opportunity to see how the disparate parts of one’s life might interact! I suspect there would be huge differences of opinion but they’d find common ground. It

would be my chance to resolve all my own inner conflicts! Tom Nee, patron saint of LJSC (deceased) Robert Shaw, choral great (deceased) Steve Schick, present star of LJSC and elsewhere Alice Parker, grand dame of traditional choral music John Cage, composer and iconoclast My father (deceased) Darren and Claire Chase What are you reading? Funnily, I’m re-reading “The Deptford

Trilogy.” I was a big fan of Robertson Davies long ago and recently, when Steve Schick mentioned the term “Fifth Business” in a talk at UC, I couldn’t remember the details of that book. So I turned back the clock and enjoyed all three of the novels. What is it you most dislike? Filling out and filing institutional forms. What is your most-prized possession? Objects don’t do much for me, but I really prize our little house and garden as a symbol of having made something of our life.

What do you do for fun? Mostly quiet times, beach-walks, movies and trips with Ann. What is your philosophy of life? “Put your pants on and go to work!” What would be your dream vacation? I’d like to go back to Provence with unlimited time and spending money. We’ve been to many more exotic places, and loved them, but the south of France keeps beckoning me back.

arth Day is celebrated globally on April 22 as folks pay homage to the planet’s bounty with a rekindling of community awareness and commitment to a cleaner, greener, safer place in the universe we call home. So rally your sustainable sensibilities while kicking up your heels and shrinking your carbon footprints. Establish roots in your community Become an intrepid landscaper by cultivating “green” gardening techniques — enliven your outdoor space by conserving water and using native plants and pesticide-free edibles. Plant a Mediterranean herb garden with basil, thyme, rosemary and Italian parsley, along with fruit trees and veggie gardens suitable for California climes (heirloom tomatoes, avocados, apricots, zucchini, plums, low-chill apples and figs). For apartment or condo dwellers, plant a windowsill garden and dwarf Meyer lemons that thrive indoors. Be a bag lady Environmentally friendly eco-totes are flying off shelves faster than you can say “paper or plastic?” In this country, 88 billion plastic bags made of non-renewable petroleum are consumed yearly. Some of these troublemakers suffocate birds, choke sea critters and take 100 years to decompose. While paper bags produce heaps of solid waste, and require more energy to recycle than plastic. Invest in a handful of recyclable cotton totes (some insulated and waterproof) that also keep perishables from perishing.

■ Method: In a stock pot, sauté onions in oil on low until translucent, then add the water, green beans and lemon zest. Cook until the beans are al dente. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. In a blender, mix eggs, yoghurt, lemon juice, herbs, spices, sugar, salt and pepper, and whip until frothy. Slowly stir this blended mixture into the soup.

Recent studies have shown that cow flatulence and sheep belches emit millions of metric tons of methane gas into the air every year (onefifth of total greenhouse gas emissions) — even more than cars. Substitute an organic quinoa burger or grilled Portobello for a beef burger on a bun. If you must do meat, make it grassfed and organic. Green grilling This time gas beats out. Using natural gas and propane grills is more energy efficient, cleaner, and produces less waste (including greenhouse gases) than using the charcoal counterparts. If you’re a die-hard charcoal grill-meister, consider swapping out traditional charcoal for more ecoforgiving types. Lump or hardwood charcoal produces less ash by-products when burned, while ceramic briquettes and lava rocks don’t burn at all, rather absorb and radiate heat for even distribution.

Opposites do extract big laughs from ‘The Odd Couple’ at North Coast Rep If you go ■ What: ‘The Odd Couple’ ■ When: Matinees, evenings through May 4

Let’s Review

By diana Saenger

I

t seems that no matter how many years keep passing since the 1965 opening of Neil Simon’s “The Odd Couple,” the script never fails to entertain. With a great cast perfectly firing off Simon’s brilliant dialogue like slivers off a ban saw, the production at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, is certainly worthy entertainment. Louis Lotorto (Felix) and Matt Thompson (Oscar) play the leads with ease and much hilarity. When neatnick Felix is thrown out of his house, he pours out his dilemma to his thoroughly untidy friend, Oscar. One look around Oscar’s room at the dirty dishes, scattered garments and other debris all over the place, and you know these two old friends are not made to live together. But Oscar insists he has eight rooms and Felix is welcome to move in. For a brief second, this is

■ Where: North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach ■ Tickets: $37-$54 ■ Contact: (858) 481-1055 ■ Website: northcoastrep.org a great solution. Felix will even be right there when the guys welcome their Friday night poker group. However, the more Felix starts to clean and cook wonderful dishes, the more Oscar’s world begins to shrink. The first night of poker begins to prove this fact. As Murray (Bernard X. Kopsho) the cop; Speed (John Nutten) a player who doesn’t like interruptions; Vinnie (Chris O’Bryon) an easy target to his friends’ jibes; and Roy (Albert Park) a dry-witted accountant, begin to play, it’s a side-splitting carousel of one-liners and haphazard actions from one character or another. Timing is everything. The actors have

to be quick with their responses; if one misses his line, the story would deflate like a balloon. Thankfully, Lotorto never misses a beat as the always anxiety-ridden Felix. He talks faster than an auctioneer and rarely even hears Oscar’s responses. Thompson is equally efficient as Oscar. But he can only take so much — the clean house, the terrific meals Felix wants to shove down his throat and the constant intrusions Felix has made on his life. When Oscar finally explodes, Thompson is in unrestrained command of his character. Things get especially funny when Oscar actually demands Felix move out immediately and the upstairs neighbors — the Pigeon sisters (Callie Prendiville and Amanda Schaar) agree to take him in. The set by Marty Burnet is terrific. Director Andrew Barnicle had his hands full making sure the lines came fast and funny, and that each actor followed through with his character’s mannerisms and attitudes. Of course, just watching Felix and Oscar go at each other like a cat and a possum is fun enough, but with this terrific entire cast on board, “The Odd Couple” is a show not to miss.

Oscar (Matt Thompson) and Felix (Louis Lotorto) work out a deal to live together in Neil Simon’s ‘The Odd Couple.’ Ken Jacques

French scholar headlines Binder Lit Lectures at UCSD By Steven Mihailovich If you believe the current assault on the artist’s originality through rapid technological advances in media and the resulting piracy is unprecedented, then you’re a prime candidate for Santayana’s axiom “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” UC San Diego’s annual James K. Binder Lectureship in Literature last week featured Roger Chartier (French scholar, author and cultural historian of books, writing, reading and education), whose lecture on April 9 provided a glimpse of the modern dilemma by taking a long look back at the antecedent set by European authors and their manuscripts in the mid-18th century. Titled “From the Writer’s Hand to the Printer’s Mind: Who is the Author in Early Modern Europe?” Chartier’s presentation focused on the history of literary manuscripts autographed by their authors to illustrate the evolution of

writers wrestling ownership from publishers and other entities, who had previously held sway and manipulated the author’s output for centuries. The process led to the development of the modern copyright as well as the contemporary concept of the writer as an expressive artist. “In order to consider text as individual property, they are to be divorced conceptually from any particular material embodiment and must be located in the author’s mind or hand,” Chartier said. “Indeed, the nearest that man could come to a material form of an immaterial world was addressed by the author’s hand. “The autographed manuscript thus became the outward and visible sign of the inward and invisible genius of the writer. It was not the case in the 16th and 17th century, when the signature could be delegated.” By addressing the dual nature of the book as a physical object and as a

manifestation of the writer’s mind, Chartier noted the displacement of the author’s ownership of the text in today’s brisk dissemination and permutations of his or her writings through technology, such as the Internet, potentially regressing the culture to a time when the original writer was obscure. “What is missing (today)

is the foundation of books, that is to say a text sufficiently stable to be recognized as an object of property and as a creation of an individual,” Chartier said. “The computer is not the book. So another perspective [emerging], sometimes by the reader, mainly by the publisher, also by the author … is to accept their own disappearance in a sense.

There is a resistance. There are cases in front of courts to keep the categories of the past.” Chartier gave his talk before an audience of about 60 people at the Atkinson Pavilion at UCSD’s Faculty Lounge. His appearance marked the return (after a two-year lull) of the Binder Lectures, inaugurated in 2005 to foster links between

UCSD and universities specifically in France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Lectures are open to the public. According to Stephanie Zed, chairperson of UCSD’s Literature Department, the hiatus was the result of conflicting schedules and difficulties in obtaining visas. Zed added that the Binder Lectureship is critical to promoting the university as a multidisciplinary institution. “The fact is that this is a science school,” Zed said. “Although arts and humanities are very excellent, we’re not making discoveries.” The short list for next year’s guest lecturer includes Dario Fo, the Nobel Prize-winning Italian playwright, and Luciano Canfora, distinguished Italian historian. Chartier said his trip was especially significant because two dearly departed friends and colleagues, Louis Marin and Michel de Certeau, taught at UCSD during the 1970s and 1980s.

L

a Jolla Junior Girl Scout Troop 4134 (with Scouts from All Hallows Academy, The Evans School and The Gillespie School) hosted some 70 fellow scouts, plus 30 leaders and parents at their “Do It for the Dogs� event on April 13 at Kate Sessions Park. The troop teamed up with Second Chance Dog Rescue to teach attendees all about the benefits of dog adoption, dog fostering and dog safety. The event doubled as a component of the coveted Girl Scout Bronze Award, which Troop 4134 is earning this year. Each troop member spent more than 20 hours creating, planning, organizing and executing this event. Attendees rotated in small groups of 10-15 through five different stations monitored by a Troop 4134 Scout. Each station maintained the canine theme. The Snack Station consisted of bone-shaped cookies for the girls to decorate (and eat!). The Scouts created doggie-eared sun visors at the Craft Station. They played doggie Bingo and toy-toss at the Game Station. At the Blanket Station, girls tied together blankets to be donated to Second Chance for the more than 1,000 dogs fostered and adopted out to Forever Homes each year. At the Education Station, the girls had an opportunity to meet, hold, and play with some of the foster dogs while learning about adopting, fostering and Second Chance.

Troop 4134 members include Clay Kates, Brianna Roberson, Ana Maria Intriago, Claire Umpleby, Chrysanthe Frangos, McKenna Branson, Molly Buck and Clare Hannon.

FROM Maps, B1 Richard Cloward. Both retired U.S. Naval officers and avid cartography collectors, they have worked together since the museum opened two years ago. “We already had five Mora works, which people were very drawn to,” explained Cloward. “Mike wanted to complete the collection. “People are comfortable with Mora’s maps because they are user-friendly, welcoming and whimsical. They appeal to people of all ages, adults and children. They are about California and San Diego and tell a whole history … and Mora was an interesting person.” The son of a South American artist father and a French intellectual mother, Mora was born in Uruguay in 1876. The family immigrated to the United States and Mora grew up in New York and New Jersey. His brother Luis became a well-known artist and teacher on the East Coast. Mora worked as book illustrator and newspaper cartoonist in New York and Boston. But something about the West called to Mora and he

Mora included the Disney studios because he, too, liked to draw animal figures with human clothes and traits. First printed in 1942, the map is the rarest of the 14 Mora maps on display at the museum. Linda Hutchison moved to the central coast of California in 1903. He spent two years living with the Hopi and Navajo Indians in Arizona, photographing and drawing them, learning their language, and working as an interpreter for the U.S. Army. He traveled up and down California on horseback, retracing the route of the Spanish missionaries on the King’s Highway, visiting the missions and writing about and illustrating the history of the early Spanish settlers (Californios) and the Spanish

cow herders (vaqueros), who were the forerunners of the American cowboys. Mora is sometimes called the “Renaissance Man of the West” because, in addition to drawing maps, writing and illustrating, he also created many murals and public works and was a wellknown sculptor, who worked in wood, stone and bronze. In 1925, he designed the commemorative half dollar for the California Diamond Jubilee. In San Francisco, he created

the Cervantes sculpture in Golden Gate Park and the Bret Hart Memorial on the wall of the Bohemian Club. He painted wall murals for Julia Morgan’s Los Angeles Examiner building and created a WPA bas-relief sculpture for a King City high school building. He died in 1947 just before his 71st birthday in Monterey, where many of his works are now on permanent display at the Maritime Museum. Here in La Jolla, his current exhibit also includes two

pieces of sculpture with a Western theme, “Twister” and “Straight Up and Scratching,” a children’s book he wrote and illustrated, and a poster called “Evolution of the Cowboy,” which was used as cover art for The Byrds’ “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” album in 1968. According to Cloward, Mora was meticulous about keeping records, so that has made the job of collecting and curating his works easier. “We know where every copy is,” he said.

Former La Jolla model, writer and Green Dragon Colony resident satisfies her wanderlust By Pat Sherman At age 92, former La Jolla resident Rhoda Riddell has had the ride of her life. Since leaving the La Jolla of her youth, Riddell (nee Fulton) has lived in nine countries and worked as a foreign war correspondent, travel writer and social director aboard a cruise ship in the Mediterranean.

A photograph of Rhoda Riddell (right) and daughter Laurie Geary, who jests that she has forgiven her mother for dragging her from La Jolla at age 14 to live in a nunnery in Málaga, Spain.

Early years Born in Japan on Oct. 28, 1920 to Robert and Karen Fulton, Riddell crossed the Pacific Ocean three times before age 3 — perhaps a source of her lifelong wanderlust. Her parents left Japan after losing their home and business in the Great Kanto earthquake of 1923, eventually settling in La Jolla, where Riddell went on to graduate with the La Jolla High School Class of 1938. Stateside, her father played the stock market until it crashed in 1929. “My mother saved us by opening a restaurant that became very famous,” Riddell said. That restaurant, popular with actors and those visiting the Del Mar Racetrack, was in the main cottage of the

Riddell said of her Norwegian mother. “But when the war came my mom sold the restaurant because she was convinced the Japanese were going to bomb La Jolla — and I think they planned to.” An avid swimmer, Riddell was asked to do some modeling by Earl MacPherson and Walter Kumme (which she continued to pursue after moving to Europe). “All my friends were babysitting at 35 cents an hour. They were going to pay me a dollar an hour. I mean, wow!” After a short stint at UC Berkeley and secretarial school, Riddell worked as an assistant to Bill Kellogg at La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. She eventually met an enlisted man at La Jolla Cove and traveled with him to Hawaii, where they married — just two weeks before the Japanese did bomb Pearl Harbor. “We were bombed when (my mother) was on the ship going back (to La Jolla from the wedding),” Riddell said. “I still have her letter where she says, ‘I know you’ll be alright.’” Riddell and husband, Robert, were in bed when the Japanese attacked, gunfire grazing the home where they were staying with another serviceman and his wife. “A half hour later a truck full of women and children

pulled up and said, ‘Grab what you can.’ “We were 11 women and children and an awful lot of booze, so that’s what they grabbed,” Riddell said. “They were officer’s wives.” The constant deployments and time away eventually led to the dissolution of that marriage. One of the couple’s daughters, Massachusetts resident Laurie Geary, said Riddell wasn’t content being a military wife, and longed to travel the world herself. The couple divorced when Geary was a third-grader at La Jolla Elementary School. Riddell took her children to live in Mexico City, though Geary contracted the measles and they had to return. Soon after, Riddell purchased tickets to Innsbruck, Austria, where she planned to move the family. However, working as a real estate leasing agent, Riddell jumped at the chance to buy a home on Nautilus Street in WindanSea, a half block from the beach, and sold the tickets. “You can see she kept trying to go,” Geary said. After another, short-lived marriage, Riddell and a friend succumbed to the lure of a lavish, albeit affordable, lifestyle on the southern coast of Spain, in the town of Torremolinos, on the Mediterranean Sea. Geary recalls with an equal measure of horror and humor how her mother placed her and her younger sister, Cecily, in a convent, eight miles away in Málaga. “It was horrible!” Geary recalled of her six-month stay. “I was 14, went to La Jolla High, had a surfer boyfriend (and) didn’t speak a word of Spanish. My mother was an atheist, so I had never even been to church. I was tall and blonde, and all the girls were short and dark, ready to be nuns.” Also looking back with laughter, Riddell countered, “It was the only school available to them. I knew that when I went there I couldn’t say I was divorced, so I just said their father was dead

Visitor Guide LA JOLLA

2013

Only 2 Weeks left tO ReseRve yOuR space!

Don’t miss your opportunity to participate in the 32nd annual la Jolla visitors Guide La Jolla model Rhoda Riddell (nee Fulton, center) wrote of this March 5, 1938 photo at La Jolla Cove: “We were tired, cold and the lobsters very dead.” Pictured with her are Dorothy Rowland and Marjorie Healy. FROM Rhoda Riddell, B18 and the sisters took them in. “Those Spanish nuns were so sweet — and trust me, my daughter doesn’t know everything.” On the upside, Geary said she now speaks fluent Spanish and knows how to cope with stress and major life changes. From Torremolinos, Riddell and her daughters continued to “bop around Europe,” living in Munich, Germany, Turkey, Greece and Madrid, where Geary graduated from high school at Torrejón Air Base, and where her mother was a correspondent for the Armed Forces Radio Service (with her own morning show). In one of the more than 400 news articles and travelogues Riddell published (many for Copley Press), Riddell wrote of the sounds that seduce visitors in Madrid, from the clop of horse hooves during morning trash collection to the knife grinder and maids singing as they hang wash over balconies. But of all her travels, Riddell said the La Jolla of her youth still holds a special place. But does the current Borrego Springs resident miss living in “The Jewel”? “My daughter took me back a few weeks ago and drove me through and I wouldn’t have recognized it … all those big buildings,” she said with candor, though no trace of rancor. “We had lunch overlooking where the Green Dragon was — Eddie V’s or something.

What Laurie Geary learned from her mother

F

ormer La Jollan Laurie Geary (who now resides in Gloucester, Mass.) said she has gained much from her globetrotting mother, including a passion for civil rights. After returning to the United States from Europe in the mid-’60s, her mother, Rhoda Riddell, became one of the first members of the National Organization for Women, and protested outside a bar in New York that refused to permit unescorted women. “This man came out and said, ‘I’ll take you in,’” Riddell recalled. “I said, ‘You have missed the point.’” While employed as a La Jolla leasing agent, Riddell helped a Jewish doctor and his family thwart La Jolla’s then-binding exclusionary housing covenants (primarily designed to keep Jewish and other minority families out of La Jolla). “My mother followed her dream,” Geary said. “She (taught me) how to take risks that led to personal growth and an exciting and fulfilling life. I have learned that it’s possible to create the life you want.”

makes you nostalgic, but that La Jolla no longer exists anymore. You know, you can’t go home.” As for Geary, a mostly retired teacher and life coach who attended her 50th La Jolla High reunion in October, La Jolla is still one of the most beautiful places on earth.

“Being at my reunion was bittersweet, because I could see what I missed. There were a lot of successful people and really happy people — though I’ve had a good life,” she said. “I think I probably romanticized it a bit, too, since I was only 14 when (I left). … I think I got frozen in time.”

FROM Inga, B3 fines but allowance money was. It is probably not surprising that Henri ultimately ended up in business school. Like many futures contracts, seasonal factors would weigh heavily. When home from school on Christmas vacation, the kids often got bored, calling mom at work some 30 times per day to rat each other out, both of them ending up deeply in the hole by week’s end. (What did they care; it was Christmas and they knew Santa would deliver even if the allowance fairy didn’t.) But this kind of stuff was all insider information to which Olof, still commuting down on weekends from the Bay area,

might not be privy. You might ask what motivation there might be for any sort of decent behavior after a kid has sold an allowance contract. A valid point. But these contracts would be sold well in advance (they were, after all, futures) and Olof’s theory was that the parties wouldn’t remember or record what weeks they’ve sold. Rory maybe, but even if deprived of all writing implements, Henri would have etched it on the patio cement with a garden spade. (See “business school” above.) So to make it fair, Olof wanted to be able to buy blind allowance contracts from the kids so they wouldn’t know what week they’d sold. At one point Olof was even trying to figure out to work a

straddle where he contracted with both the kids AND me. Olof thought that if he were doing well enough on allowance futures we could even could go public and sell allowance shares. (I personally would have gone short on these.) But right about that time, the market picked up, and CD and money market funds became worthy enough vehicles again. I merely mention this because in the current uncertain times, parents of elementary and middle school kids might want to consider this themselves. It definitely pays more than your bank. — Look for Inga’s column three weeks of every month. Reach her by e-mail at inga47@san.rr.com

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 8362 VIA SONOMA #D, LA JOLLA, CA 92037 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein.

The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee`s Sale is estimated to be $199,079.83 (Estimated), provided, however, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary`s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier`s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee`s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder`s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful

bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. 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. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Auction.com at 800.280.2832 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address www.Auction.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA05003036-12-1.

ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. 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. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, this information can be obtained from one of the following three companies: LPS Agency Sales & Posting at (714) 730-2727, or visit the Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com (Registration required to search for sale information) or Priority Posting & Publishing at (714) 573-1965 or visit the Internet Web site www. priorityposting.com (Click on the link for “Advanced Search” to search for sale information), or auction.com at 1-800-280-2832 or visit the Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the Trustee Sale No. shown above. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. P1031415 4/18, 4/25, 05/02/2013.
