By Pat Sherman La Jolla has a new representative in the state legislature who promises to be a strong advocate for coastal issues. In December, Democrat Toni Atkins became the 78th District state Assembly representative, a position formerly held by Marty Block (who continues to represent La Jolla in the 39th District state Senate seat.) “I’ll be spending a lot more of my time in the coming years while in the Assembly really looking at coastal issues, because that is a large portion of my district now — from Imperial Beach all the way to Del Mar,” said Atkins, who was recently reappointed as the Assembly representative to the California Ocean Protection Council, and serves on the Assembly select committee on Coastal Protection, as well as the select committee on

Atkins is author of a bill currently making its way through the legislature that would give the California Coastal Commission (CCC) the authority to impose fines on those who violate the state’s Coastal Act (see accompanying story), and has introduced a bill that would increase state monitoring of copper-based boat hull paint (AB 425). “The copper paint contains toxic chemicals that keep the boat hulls free of barnacles and damaging organisms to the boat, but it also

CRIME REPORT
Architect who worked on Hotel La Jolla dies following attack Architect Graham Downes, who worked on a remodel of Hotel La Jolla and designed the Sauvage swimwear shop on Prospect Street, has died. He was 55. Higinio Salgado, 31, an employee at Downes’ architectural firm, is accused of fatally beating his boss during a house party at the victim’s Bankers Hill home. Patrol officers responding to a reported disturbance found the two men on the ground in front of the architect’s residence. Downes was unconscious with severe facial
and head injuries. Salgado, a property manager for the victim’s company, was questioned and then booked into county jail on suspicion of attempted murder. At press time the District Attorney’s Office was expected to file murder Graham Downes charges. Paramedics took Downes to Scripps Mercy Hospital, where he was admitted in critical condition. He succumbed to his injuries late Sunday morning. Downes’ firm is known for its work at several local hotels and restaurants including the Bali Hai, the Hard Rock Hotel and Tower 23 hotel.

Judge denies request to suspend beach closure and shorten seal rope at La Jolla Children’s Pool By Pat Sherman A judge has denied requests by beach access proponents to shorten the seal guideline rope at La Jolla Children’s Pool, and to end a temporary nighttime beach closure there ordered by Mayor Bob Filner. On April 19, Superior Court Judge Joel Pressman held to the tentative ruling he’d issued the day before, saying he could not rule on the beach closure because it hadn’t been introduced to the court previously. Filner ordered the beach closure at Children’s Pool March 19, following ‘Seal Cam’ footage that shows two women harassing seals (reportedly recorded by a woman in Australia using her cell phone camera to capture the live footage streaming on her computer). Pressman ruled the week before in favor of keeping the seal rope up year-round. Thus far it has only been up during the seals’ pupping season, Dec. 15-May 15, to keep people a safe distance from pregnant seals and their pups. A three-foot gap in the 152-foot rope is provided for members of the public to legally access the beach, though posted signs warn people that the beach is
contaminated with bacteria from seal feces, and that harassing seals violates federal law. Attorney Bernie King filed the April 19 preliminary injunction on behalf of La Jolla’s pro-beach access group, Friends of the Children’s Pool (FoCP). The group sought to shorten the rope from 152 feet to 130 feet, claiming the mayor and city council had lengthened the rope earlier this year without following proper procedure and offering a chance for a public hearing and appeals. Though Pressman agreed with two key points raised by FoCP in his tentative ruling, he said his previous week’s ruling in favor of a 152-foot, year-round rope (favored by both the city council and California Coastal Commission) allowed the rope to remain up. “My question is when did the city council make a decision to install a 152-foot rope?” King asked the court, suggesting that it may have happened when the city council met in closed session to agree that the San Diego Planning Commission erred last fall by denying a permit for the yearround rope. Deputy City Attorney George Schaeffer refuted the FoCP’s claim
SEAL WATCH
n For convenient access to La Jolla Light’s latest and archived stories, photos and videos about seals and the La Jolla Children’s Pool, visit LaJollaLight.com and click on the ‘Seal Watch’ button on the top-left corner of the website. that the 152-foot rope blocked beach access in a way that violated California Coastal Act law. (Judge Pressman agreed with FoCP on this point in his tentative ruling, stating that it appears “the city violated the Coast Act and land development code by unilaterally installing a 152-foot rope barrier without a coastal or site development permit.”) Schaeffer said his reading of the Coastal Act suggests human access to the beach must be consistent with the law’s mandate for the protection of wildlife and natural
resources. “The evidence you have, your honor, shows that this 22-foot extension of the thin guideline rope in no way is inconsistent with that intent and mandate,” Schaeffer said, noting the testimony of a marine biologist who contends that shortening the rope increases the risk of confrontation and violence, as well as the risk of visitors violating federal law. He said FoCP members are already aware that they are legally permitted to go under or around the rope. “They’ve been doing it for years,” Schaeffer said, adding that protecting the seals increases recreational opportunities in San Diego, drawing more than a million seal-gazers to the city each year. Responding via e-mail, FoCP President Ken Hunrichs said the April 19 ruling on the rope length is “not as harmful to our goals as it may seem on first glance. “We came away with the acknowledgement from the court that the city, and Mayor Filner in particular, violated the Coastal Act and San Diego land development codes by undertaking a development on the beach, by
extending the rope barrier without a permit to do so. “It was pretty clear from the beginning that the mayor’s actions were not proper and legal. What is troubling was the judge’s reluctance to order the development be brought back into compliance immediately, especially since it would be a relatively harmless move to do so. Returning the barrier rope to the permitted length until the city gets all the required permits approved or modified was what we were seeking. … “Also of concern is the judge stating the city council had resolved for there to be a 152-foot rope on the beach. Of course, the city council never had that length (of) rope in any consideration before them in a public council meeting. All references to the rope were at 130 feet in documents and diagrams relied on by the council. Our attorney, Bernard King, brought that fact before the court today and was ignored. A ruling in closed session where that issue may or may not have been considered for adoption is not the way an open and transparent governmental body should be allowed to operate.”
LA JOLLA NEWS BITES n The La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) elected a new crop of officers during its April 10 meeting, including: Tim Lucas (president), Mary Coakley-Munk (vicepresident), Dolores Donovan (recording and corresponding secretary) and Pamela Boynton (treasurer). Todd Lesser threw his hat in the ring for president, though he did not garner enough votes for the position. A few days after the meeting, Lesser, who chairs the Traffic and Transportation Board, resigned from the LJSA board. He expressed confidence in Lucas as the new LJSA board president. n UC San Diego and CALTRANS will build a new bridge over Interstate 5, north of the La Jolla Village Drive bridge and south of the Voigt Drive bridge. It will tie into existing campus roads on both sides of the freeway. The project is currently in the preliminary design phase with completion anticipated for spring of 2016. In addition, two new Superloop transit stations will be added to the UCSD campus, one on Medical Center Drive East adjacent to Shiley Eye Center, and one on Voigt Drive, west of the Preuss School. For more information about both projects, visit http://bit.ly/ucsdbridge
n The San Diego Historical Resources Board will consider whether to grant local historic designation to La Jolla’s Wall Street post office today (April 25). The post office, which the U.S. Postal Service is preparing to sell, already has state and federal historic designations. It is believed the local nod will help preserve the building’s historic façade and interior features once sold. The meeting is at 1 p.m. in the 12th floor committee hearing room of city hall, 202 C St. in downtown.
Development Permit Review committee will discuss the project next month, giving concerned Playa Del Sur homeowners an opportunity to finish a report disputing details of a historic structures report commissioned by the property owner. That report found too many of the original details of the property had been altered to deem it worthy of preservation, a point with which preservationists disagree. Several adjacent homeowners plan to appeal the city’s decision.
n The San Diego City Council will hear an appeal of the proposed “Bernati Ticino” residential development at 1328 Virginia Way on June 25. The project is proposed for the former site of Irving Gill’s “Windemere” cottage, which was demolished on Dec. 23, 2011 to the chagrin of historic preservationists (read more at http://bit.ly/gillcottage). The meeting is open to the public. For a time and location, visit http://bit.ly/SDCCagendas
n Crash and dash? San Diego police are still investigating a Lamborghini that was crashed the evening of March 18 near La Jolla Village Drive and La Jolla Scenic Drive, then abandoned by its driver and passenger. Police say they have been in contact with the vehicle’s owner and attorney, though there are no witnesses to put the owner or anyone else behind the wheel, SDPD Police Capt. Brian Ahearn said. Police are waiting for physical evidence to be processed, which could take several weeks. The person believed to be the passenger has not cooperated with Traffic Division investigators, Ahearn said. Ahearn also said police have no leads on the identity of two women seen harassing

seals at Children’s Pool in February via the newly installed “Seal Cam.” Ahearn said the solvability of the case is low. Larry Wan, founder of the Western Alliance for Nature (WAN) Conservancy, who said his organization paid $40,000 for the Seal Cam, has declined to tell the La Jolla Light whether the nonprofit has recouped costs for the camera via a banner on its website requesting donations. WAN Conservancy is hosting a fundraiser, 6:30 p.m. today (April 25) at Mangelsen Images of Nature Gallery, 7916 Girard Ave. San Diego Mayor Bob Filner will be honored for his support of the harbor seals during the event. Admission is $30 at the door. n Meanwhile, Mayor Filner testified on behalf of attorney and campaign contributor Bryan Pease at a hearing on April 11, during which Pease was accused of two counts of petty theft by the group Friends of the Children’s Pool (FoCP). Pease allegedly stole FoCP’s flag and a sign alerting the public that they are permitted to move beyond the seal guideline rope to access the shoreline at Children’s Pool beach. — Compiled by Pat Sherman

NoT GoNNa Fall FoR IT
Falling can be a major threat to the health, well-being and independence of older people. According to the San Diego Health & Human Services Agency 1 in 3 SD residents over age 65 will experience a fall within the next 12 months. To make matters worse, a projected 2/3 of these individuals will fall a second time and as many as 30% will suffer injuries resulting in decreased mobility & independence. Despite these alarming statistics, the SD Fall Prevention Task Force wants seniors to know that falls are preventable. The #1 thing that older adults can do to decrease their risk of falling is to engage in regular exercise & balance training. Exercise maintains strength & flexibility, while balance training builds confidence – both of which are important to fall prevention. Fear of falling can interfere with daily and recreational activities, creating a vicious cycle of decreased strength, balance and mobility. The professional therapists at Ability Rehab can help. We will assess your risk and develop a customized program to improve balance & strength, which will help to increase confidence, safety and independence. P.S. To learn more about balance, exercise and fall prevention, come join us on Thurs, May 2nd at 4:30pm for a presentation entitled “A Balancing Act” by Julie Hom, MPT, NCS, Owner.

FROM Toni Atkins, A1 fouls the water and fouls some of our aquatic life,” Atkins said of the bill. Atkins said she hopes the legislation will strike a balance that is beneficial for boat owners and the environment. “Many La Jollans moor their boats at Shelter Island, and that’s currently under federal and state mandate to reduce copper levels,” she said. “It’s a huge issue recreationally and for people who are in the fishing industry.” Atkins said her office has also met with the mayor, Councilmember Sherri Lightner and representatives from the CCC to offer assistance solving the stench at La Jolla Cove. “We’ve pretty much got the support of the coastal commission and the Regional Water Quality Control Board that they would be willing to move as fast and forward as they could, once the city issues their proposal or plan for how to do it,” Atkins said. “We’re waiting on the city to issue the RFP (request
HAVE
for proposals) for cleaning the cliffs, and they need to do that. … We will push on the mayor’s office, because we can only interface with the coastal commission once they have a proposal in hand.” During her time on the city council, which ended in 2008, Atkins voted for the current rope barrier at Children’s Pool to be up during pupping season. Though the city council didn’t vote for the year-round rope until after Atkins’ departure, she said she also favors the yearround rope. “I know that there will be people in La Jolla who don’t like that response, but I think we’ve got to find a solution to this and we’ve got to come together,” she said. “In the meantime, I want to make sure that we’re following federal law … and not endangering the seals.” Other issues Atkins will be dealing with this year include a statewide water distribution plan, and potential revisions to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), a law passed in 1970 to create

statewide environmental protections. CEQA requires strict analysis and public disclosure of the environmental impacts of proposed development — which particularly affects projects in the coastal zone. “In La Jolla, as I recall from my days on the city council, there tends to be a lot of involvement from land-use attorneys when it comes to projects,” Atkins said. “Time is money, and if you’re trying to do things like develop affordable housing, you add to the cost of these things when the process takes a very long time. ... “The challenge is balancing the appropriate public review — which is also important to communities — and at the same time keeping things moving. It’s going to be a little more complex in La Jolla because you’ve got CEQA review, and you’ve also got the coastal zone and the Coastal Act (to address).” Atkins said finding additional money for transportation projects in her district (including the Torrey Pines Road Corridor Project) beyond raising taxes or relying on what flows through the San Diego Association of Governments, will be a challenge. State legislators are considering giving local communities more input on how they spend their tax dollars, and how they finance infrastructure projects, using things such as minimal obligation bonds. “Some of the measures before the state right now would do things like allow voter thresholds to be lower than two-thirds in order to (move) major infrastructure projects

In addition, five years of budget cuts and service reallocation have created a more stable budget, she said. “That could play into any funds that we make available for infrastructure,” she said. “Whether it’s transportation, or money to upgrade schools, it’s going to help us.”

Bill would give Coastal Commission ‘teeth,’ power to levy fines By Pat Sherman Legislation authored by La Jolla’s new state Assembly representative, Toni Atkins (D-78), would give the California Coastal Commission (CCC) the authority to levy fines against people who violate the California Coastal Act. It is also hoped to deter others considering violating the law, enacted in 1976 to protect resources along the state’s 1,100-mile coastline. The CCC has more than 1,800 open enforcement cases — and new violations are reported faster than the commission’s approximately 130-member staff can resolve existing cases. Common violations of the Coastal Act include development completed without a permit, such as a swimming pool, tennis court or entire structure, and the dumping of gray-water and household or industrial waste. Currently, the CCC may only issue ceaseand-desist orders to violators who refuse to correct a problem. To enforce those orders, if ignored, the commission must pursue litigation through the California Attorney General’s office — a costly, time-consuming process that has only been done four times in the last decade. “Those who choose to ignore the coastal commission basically get a free ride, unless the attorney general agrees to take the case,” Atkins said. Atkins’ legislation, AB 976, would give the
AB 976 ■ What: Gives the California Coastal Commission the power to impose fines on Coastal Act violators. ■ Potential fines: $750 to $1,250 per day (75 percent of what a court may impose) ■ Author: State Assemblymember Toni Atkins (D-78) ■ Status: Passed the Assembly Judiciary Committee April 16. CCC the same ability to impose fines already in place at other environmental agencies, such as the Department of Fish and Wildlife (formerly the Department of Fish and Game), the State Water Resources Control Board and the California Energy Commission. Since CCC staff does not monitor the coast (and wouldn’t under AB 976) violations are reported to the CCC by individuals, or occasionally local governments, CCC Legislative Director Sarah Christie said. “All our violations are reported by a third party, or are commission compliance violations where we’ve authorized development consistent with certain

conditions, and then they don’t meet the conditions of their permit.” When a complaint is lodged, CCC staff first work to verify that there is evidence of a violation, Christie said. “If there is evidence that a violation is taking place, then we notify the property owner, typically in writing,” she said. “We invite them to either demonstrate that the development is not unpermitted or work with us to resolve the violation locally.” Only a fraction of Coastal Act violators refuse to cooperate with the CCC, though these cases are difficult for the agency to enforce under current law, Christie said. “If you’re benefiting (financially) from unpermitted development and there’s no penalty for dragging your feet, you can just hire lawyers to fight with the coastal commission for years and keep public access blocked — and that’s exactly what happens,” she said. “They have no problem throwing hundreds of millions of dollars into attorney (fees).” The majority of violators claim they did not know a permit was required and offer to correct the error, or seek the required coastal development permit for their development, if it is allowed by law, Christie said. About half of Coastal Act violations in urban areas like La Jolla involve people blocking public access to the shoreline — via fences, gates, boulders, landscaping or even ‘no trespassing’ signs. “That’s a very common tactic,” Christie

said. “There’s no end to the amount of creativity that people will apply when they want to prevent the public from getting to the beach.” Christie said AB 976 would have no affect on the seal rope barrier controversy at Children’s Pool beach. Some claim the rope barrier — intended to keep the public a safe distance from harbor seals — violates the Coastal Act by deterring the public from legally accessing the shoreline at Children’s Pool. “This bill only applies to enforcement actions that the commission takes,” Christie said, noting that the CCC approved a coastal development permit for a year-round rope at Children’s pool. A judge also ruled this month in favor of a city permit for the year-round rope. In addition, AB 976, as currently written, does not allow the commission to fine a “local government, special district or an agency thereof,” such as the San Diego City Council, for blocking beach access. Sacramento-based property rights attorney and Coastal Act expert Tim Kassouni said he feels the legislation would give a CCC “essentially drunk on its own power” the ability to act as “judge, jury and executioner.” “The coastal commission has not shown the ability or capacity of policing itself when it comes to due process or constitutional safeguards,” Kassouni said, noting his

City to settle Muirlands sinkhole claim
Repairs to damage caused by city pipe in 2010 won’t begin until 2015 By Pat Sherman The City of San Diego is preparing to settle a damage claim filed by Murilands resident Jim Jones, whose driveway collapsed in December of 2010 after a storm drain pipe burst on his property. “We’re hopeful of a settlement on all of this,” Deputy City Attorney Fritz Ortlieb told La Jolla Light. On April 22, Ortlieb and about 10 other city officials — including District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner, engineers and water and risk management department employees — visited Jones’ property on Camino Del Teatro to assess the damage and discuss possible remedies. Jones said Lightner had previously visited to view the damage. “She said there was money for repairs like this, and of course the city is always saying they don’t have any money,” he said. The damage occurred after a rusty segment of corrugated metal pipe burst during a heavy rainstorm. The leak caused a mudslide that weakened the ground below Jones’ asphalt driveway, leading to a sinkhole that nearly swallowed a truck parked in the driveway belonging to Jones’ daughter. The gap also left an underground electrical line exposed. “You never think it’s going to happen to you, but here I am,” Jones said.
Muirlands resident Jim Jones stands next to a hole where a large section of his driveway collapsed in December 2010. City officials acknowledge the damage is the result of a city pipe that burst during a rainstorm, flooding Jones’ property. The city says it won’t begin repairs until January 2015. Photos by Pat Sherman The rusty pipe is located underground, within a public right-of-way running along Jones’ property line. Ortlieb said the city plans to replace the 12-inch metal pipe with

a more durable, 18-inch concrete pipe. However, due to environmental laws and other potential regulatory hurdles that must be cleared before permits for the job can be issued, the work is not scheduled to begin until January 2015 (with a target completion date of June 2015). “If it were just a matter of repairing his driveway two years ago we could have done that, but what good would that do if we had to tear it all up again to replace our (pipe),” Ortlieb said. “It’s the fact that we have a major piece of city infrastructure right here that has caused these delays. It’s not like we’re trying to string him along or anything. It just takes time.” Though Jones hired an attorney and a geological consultant to help make his case for redress, the city has yet to patch the driveway, or offer Jones financial reimbursement to hire his own contractor, as he requested. The city has estimated the job will cost about $910,000, though Jones said he believes he could find a contractor to do it for less. A letter Jones’ attorney sent city claims representative James Coldren in November, 2011 included testimony from Advanced Geotechnical Solutions, stating that “significant rains” could lead to further damage. “The driveway and possibly the garage could be in jeopardy,” the consultant stated. “This is especially true given the drawn-out process that the city will require for review.” Jones said the city has changed the projected start date for the project several times, the last time moving it from 2014 to 2015. “They just keep moving it out,” Jones said. “Another year will go by and it’ll be out to 2020.” Maneuvering a vehicle in the truncated driveway is so difficult that Jones said he rarely drives his Lexus, instead backing an older pickup truck down the steep driveway to exit his property.
The city repaired this exposed section of drainage pipe on Jim Jones’ property, which burst during a rainstorm in December of 2010, leading to a sinkhole that remains. Jones said he and his wife are looking to sell the property, but the damaged driveway and drainage problems make the deal less palatable to potential buyers. “One of the buyers ran away,” he said. “We’ve got to get this (schedule) moved up, because we want to move out of here.” Project designs are about 30 percent complete, Ortlieb said. “We have to, first of all, design it and procure engineers to study it,” he said. “We’ve got to procure a contractor to do it. Permits are another issue that we’ve got to consider. We may or may not need them. I’m quickly evaluating all these issues right now.”

FROM Assembly Bill, A9 opposition to the CCC being able to impose fines with no judicial review process. However, Atkins rejects the claim that the Coastal Commission is “overly aggressive,” and said protections in her bill keep the CCC’s powers in check. All fines levied must be approved by a majority vote of the commissioners at a publicly noticed hearing. Once imposed, those fines can be challenged in court, she said. “There’s due process … there’s transparency,” Atkins said. “Some bureaucratic agency isn’t just leveling fines.” AB 976 caps fines at 75 percent of the amount that can be sought through the courts, about $1,000 to $15,000 per day. The first $1.5 million collected each year will go to the California Coastal Conservancy’s “violation remediation” account, which funds projects and programs that mitigate violations, such as wetland restoration and public access improvements, Christie said. Anything beyond $1.5 million will flow back to the CCC, though Christie said it would be rare for the commission to impose more than $1.5 million in fines per year. The CCC is funded largely through the state’s general fund, and also receives reimbursement from other agencies and the federal government. AB 976 passed the Assembly Judiciary Committee April 16 and will be heard next by the Appropriations Committee. The CCC is currently reviewing four open cases of Coastal Act violations in La Jolla, Christie said, though she declined to provide further details.

Sea lion pup found at WindanSea part of ‘unusual mortality event’ By Ashley Mackin SeaWorld’s rescue line received several phone calls about a small sea lion pup at WindanSea beach on April 15. The first calls came in at 6:30 a.m., and the pup was picked up at 11 a.m. While SeaWorld’s Animal Rescue Team checks its stranding hotline several times a day, it can take several hours before they arrive at the scene to observe reported animals in distress. So, what happens when a someone phones the hotline? “There is no cookie cutter way we handle things,” said SeaWorld Communications Director David Koontz. When the team gets a call or a message, they might try to contact the person that left the message to see if they are still at the scene and can provide additional information, or they might call a lifeguard or local law enforcement familiar with the area to see if this is an unusual situation. However, Koontz said, “In the vast majority of cases, we’ll get in the truck and go out and observe the animal ourselves and make a determination as to whether that animal needs to be rescued.” One challenge when responding to
propeller or being tangled in fishing line. The pup found at WindanSea was determined to be malnourished, as it was underweight and dehydrated, an unfortunate trend in sea lions rescued in La Jolla and elsewhere along the San Diego coastline. With National Marine Fisheries calling this an “unusual mortality event,” sea lion pups are not able to find food. Koontz said sea lions make up more than 90 percent of SeaWorld’s rescues, which have been substantial this year. In San Diego alone, SeaWorld rescued approximately 340 animals, 320 of which were sea lions, 305 of which were pups. Between San Diego and Santa Barbara, 1100 sea lion pups have been rescued this year. While the exact cause of this spike is unknown, Koontz said, “We do know there has been a lack of food for pups where they would normally find food when they wean from their mothers.” Furthermore, the pups are not as experienced in foraging on their own. “If the food the pups would normally eat is not available to them in the area they would normally be … they don’t know
This malnourished pup, found at WindanSea beach on April 15, appears to be part of what National Marine Fisheries calls ‘an unusual mortality event,’ as they are having difficulty finding food and starving. Ashley Mackin calls is that not every animal reported needs assistance. When it comes to determining which ones are taken to SeaWorld’s rescue and rehabilitation center, Koontz said SeaWorld relies on the judgment of the rescue team. “If you look at it collectively, you’ve got an organization with a couple of hundred years of experience in dealing with rescuing and
rehabilitating and returning animals to the sea,” he said. “So that experience they have helps them make a pretty accurate assessment on an animal that may be in distress.” Obvious signs the animal is in distress is if it is underweight, lethargic or has a wound or injury that appears to be from human activity, such as a cut from a boat
&Marti GeLLenS
SeaWorld Hotline ■ To report a stranded sea lion, phone SeaWorld’s hotline at (800) 541-SEAL (7325) where to go, or aren’t strong enough to go, where that food is,” he said. One theory is that the mothers aren’t finding the food they need and are weaning their pups sooner than normal. A “double-whammy” for pups, not having the fish they normally eat available also contributes to the dehydration, as the pups get nourishment and hydration from the fish. When malnourished, sea lions get colder faster, especially in the water, which is why sea lions will come up onto beaches and rest on rocks warmed by the sun. The pup at WindanSea was found on the rocks, likely warming up. It is currently being evaluated at SeaWorld. National Marine Fisheries representatives could not be reached for comment regarding any progress or updates in the investigation as to the starvation trend by deadline.

C&H Photo
La Jolla’s ‘neighborhood camera store’ has moved to a new location By Marti Gacioch &H Photo owner Leon Chow likes to describe his Girard Avenue shop as a traditional neighborhood camera store like everyone remembers. “It’s a store where you’ll see not only cameras, but customers being educated on how to use them, along with all the different accessories,” Chow said. “We don’t want to just sell you a camera; we want to show you how to use it correctly, and every camera purchase comes with two free classes.” C&H Photo recently moved from its location of seven years on Fay Avenue to its new home at 7442 Girard Ave. in La Jolla Village. The store has an inventory of more than 20,000 items, including more than 50 cameras models to choose from. The shop is well equipped to fulfill every shutterbug’s needs — from the studio

professional to budding hobbyist — with a wide range of products and camera classes. And with their full-service laboratory, C&H Photo can process and print film and digital photo files, as well as handle video transfers, photo archiving and in-house custom restoration of damaged photos. “We’re doing a great deal of photo archiving now because people are bringing in boxes of old photos of generations past that they want scanned into digital format,” Chow said. “And we’re more than happy to work with people on their projects combining film, slides and narrative to commemorate an event, a person or a wedding.” According to Chow, his shop’s personal attention to customer’s needs sets C&H

FROM C&H PHOTO, A16 Photo a cut above Internet photo sites. “When people buy a camera online, they often get upset with the product because it won’t do what they wanted it to because they might have been thinking only about the lowest price and didn’t get the information they needed to make the right choice,� Chow said. “Whatever they thought they saved on the Internet, they end up spending on a second camera to get the one they really needed.� Located near both La Jolla Elementary School and the Gillispie School, Chow said that his typical customer is a soccer mom. “It used to be that photography was dominated by men, but now it’s the savvy mom who’s attending the school events and taking most of the activity photos,� Chow said.

Let them eat bugs!
Food consumption changes in response to entomophagy By Marly Isler Yale University freshman and La Jolla resident
I
GUEST COMMENTARY
n first grade, my best friend Kristen brought in one of the most unique class birthday snacks I had ever seen: chocolate covered crickets. From a class sick of the typical store-bought cupcakes and excited for the change, I remember looking around at my classmates before biting halfway through my lump of cricket. Although I can’t say that I’ve had cricket or any other bug since her birthday on Feb. 10, 2001, I do remember that I didn’t mind the taste — very salty, but when combined with chocolate it wasn’t half bad. Entomophagy, the practice of eating insects, is nothing new to humans. There are about 1,462 recorded species of edible insects, and in countries like Thailand, China, Columbia and New Guinea, insects are a part of the diet and not seen as shocking when put on a plate. Even people who live in developed countries eat insects, although most of this consumption is unbeknownst to them. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration wrote a publication detailing the acceptable levels of food contamination from insects. As an example, action occurs when chocolate has
an average of 60 or more insect fragments per 100 grams, where anything less is still sold to the consumer. With most of the world taking part in the eating of insects, and with Americans eating many bugs unknowingly, it may not be too long until insects are seen as a food source. In many cases in the United States, eating insects is becoming all the rage. Many chic restaurants serve entrees with sautéed grasshoppers, roasted butterflies, or barbequed bees. As well as being popular, the use of insects as food is also more efficient of a product. With the world population increasing rapidly, food security is a growing problem. Using insects as food has many benefits. Because they are cold blooded, insects are about four times more efficient at converting food to meat as cattle. Also, fried grasshoppers have three times as much protein as beef, ounce for ounce. Finally, there is no problem with inhumane breeding of insects, because unlike cattle, insects thrive on filthy, overcrowded conditions. The negatives of entomophagy, as many researchers suggest, are few and far between. It really all comes down to people’s ideas of insects as dirty, disgusting creatures. When one thinks of a hamburger, one doesn’t think of the cow, so if insects
Response to letter about seals, Children’s Pool
OUR READERS WRITE
I am grateful to the La Jolla Light for printing the parts taken out of my last letter as they were short on space and had to cut it — it ended up being a “stupid” letter that I would not want my name on, this is in response to the founder of The Friends of the Seals, and my disbelief that someone could be proud of a group that has done so much harm to others. This is what was removed from my letter. These are just the things I saw take place. “Then he goes on to brag about what Friends of the Seals did. He is so proud that they physically and verbally abused people. Yes, they have spit on people. I was there when they urinated on a group on the beach, and we had death threats. They pepper-sprayed a father whose child crossed the rope (which every person has the right to do). They lie to people who do not know better. The seals have thousands of miles of beaches to go, and we have only one man-made beach in America, and one in Hawaii.” That is what was taken out, and I ended my letter with: “Friends of the Children Pool would never bring any harm to a seal or a person but we will let you know it is your right to enter the ocean, and we should all be fighting for our right to beach access.” Melinda Merryweather La Jolla
Outraged at price tag for new lifeguard tower While I am looking forward to the removal of the unsightly scaffolding that has supported the “temporary” lifeguard tower at Children’s Pool beach for so many years, along with the semi truck-sized storage bins and hideous Porta Potties comprising what has to be the ugliest group on the beautiful coast, I could not believe the $3.2 MILLION dollar price tag on the new lifeguard tower! I am under the impression that the city already owns the land. Although old, there are already existing utilities and sewage lines in place, so how can a cinder block and glass structure possibly cost so much? I laughed when I read there wasn’t enough in the budget for another shower! Anyone who dares swim in the seal poop infested waters there will surely need a shower and won’t want to wait. Why is there no outrage at this astronomical amount? While I am no real estate or construction expert, I can look through the La Jolla Light any week and see what incredible beauty you can buy for $3.2 MILLION or less, and the price includes the land. I am sure one of our local construction companies would love to have this job and could design and build a far nicer
can be thought of in a way that doesn’t bring up the image of a cockroach found in a corner, entomophagy may have a chance. So thinks Matthew Krisiloff, founder of Entom Foods, a company that de-shells insects to sell the meat in cutlets. Krisiloff also advises restaurants to go by the insects’ Latin names to make the product sound fancier, as well as not turning people off with words like worm or bug, subconsciously bringing to mind disease and death. As one entomologist from the University of Georgia stated, “Twenty years ago, sushi was the eeew factor,” suggesting that like for sushi, cultural norms can change to be more accepting of eating insects. The book that many say started the movement, Vincent M. Holt’s “Why Not Eat Insects?” makes the point that while lobster (a creature that eats debris off the ocean floor) is a delicacy, bugs are seen as inedible, although they just eat leaves and flowers. With four-fifths of the animal species on Earth being insects, with the projection of Earth’s population, and with the increasing demand for food, it seems likely that entomophagy will catch on. Although at this time, eating bugs is done in many ways for the cool story or the novelty (my reasons for biting into that cricket 12 years ago at a friend’s birthday party), I believe that the time will come when it is common practice, the same as just biting into a burger.

Surprised that San Diego is not bicyclist friendly I lived in Vancouver, B.C., Canada for 30-plus years and it is a cyclist mecca with cyclists and pedestrians having priority over vehicles on the road. It is not unusual to pull up to an intersection in Vancouver and find a dozen cyclists waiting at the red light in the bike lane (on a rainy day to boot!). So, you can imagine my disappointment when I moved to San Diego. With the incredible year-round weather, that is more conducive to cycling than practically any place on earth, I had assumed that San Diego would be more bike and pedestrian friendly than Vancouver. It was all I could do not to cry at times while I was riding my bike through La Jolla and had to be hyper vigilant of vehicular traffic, rather than enjoy the beautiful ocean view. Over the years, thanks to local friends, I have become familiar with the backroads and trails that have fewer cars, but I still hope to see a cycling and pedestrian friendly La Jolla one day in the future. How great it would be to have

New Scripps Research vessel honors astronaut Sally Ride
Research Report By LynnE Friedmann
A
new research vessel will be named R/V Sally Ride, in honor of the former UC San Diego faculty member who was the first American female astronaut and the youngest American to fly in space. As a seagoing laboratory supporting research and education, the new ship will feature modern research instrumentation to fuel scientific exploration, including mapping systems, sensors and profilers to investigate features from the seafloor to the atmosphere. The ship, owned by the U.S. Navy, will be operated by Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD and will home port at the Scripps Nimitz Marine
Facility in Point Loma. A shared-use, general-purpose ship, R/V Sally Ride is designed to operate globally and will engage in a broad range of research in physics, chemistry, biology, geology and climate science, including research missions with relevance to the U.S. Navy. R/V Sally Ride is currently under construction and scheduled for launch in 2015, with scientific operations commencing in 2016.

Seals suffer from both locals, tourists I would like to thank you for all of your hard work in trying to protect the seals. It is such a shame so many selfish locals try to rid them of their natural habitats. That being said, there are just too many arrogant tourists who have no respect, and I would like to see more done to educate them. I know, it’s a huge process and very difficult, but after witnessing some abuse against a seal today I was enraged and wanted to tell someone. Attached are pictures of whom I believe are tourists, (based on overhearing them speak of attractions they wish to see) abusing a seal. On two occasions within 10 minutes I witnessed the man with the young girl slap the seal on the back so hard I could hear it from my seat on the retaining wall at least 50 yards away.
Robyn Gubrud took this photo of visitors getting too close to the seals for photo opps at the Children’s Pool. He then puts his young daughter right up next to it! The seal could have easily bitten or done her some serious harm; endangering their child for a photo opp. The seals are beautiful, but invading their space is wrong. Anyways, thanks again for all you do. I will be a firm supporter of “Friends of the Seals” forever. Robyn Gubrud

The amount of irresponsibility going on pretty ridiculous.

I would like to see more ads out there like the texting and driving one’s only even more scary and more of them with the hopes to get the message across. I think the police could be doing a better job as well. I have seen people run red lights in front of cops and they doing nothing! I asked a cop about that and he told me that it’s the job of the motorcycle cops for that! Like he was passing the buck. I do have ideas on how to make some changes for the better.

Volunteer of the Year
‘Emotional Paramedic’ and La Jollan honored by San Diego Police By Ashley Mackin hen someone calls 911, if police arrive and determine that there are people in distress, Crisis Interventionists such as La Jolla’s Noreen Haygood are usually the next responders called to the scene. Haygood is what you might call an emotional paramedic, comforting families immediately following traumatic situations. For her work as a Crisis Interventionist, Haywood was honored at a San Diego Police Department Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon on April 24. Crisis Interventionists often handle the death of a family member, the most challenging being the death of a child or baby due to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome because “nobody can really prepare to deal with that,” Haygood said. One of her more memorable and challenging calls involved a 12-year-old girl discovering her father’s body after he had committed suicide. “For somebody to (commit suicide) in such a way that child would discover, it is incomprehensible,” Haygood said. “It was very difficult.” In another example, a little girl witnessed her father throwing himself in front of a train. Reactions to situations like this vary in Haygood’s experience. One man went to work after discovering his wife had died. Another instance Haygood recalled as “freaky.” In this case, a 95-year-old woman died, and her daughter could not understand what had happened. “She kept asking ‘who are all these people in the house’ and ‘what’s happened’ and ‘where’s my mother’,” Haygood said. “Her children couldn’t get through to her … I don’t know whether it was shock, she just couldn’t process it.” After two and half hours, Haygood explained the woman “woke up” and said she felt like she had been in a dream. After that, she was

San Diego Police Chief William Lansdowne and Noreen Haygood more cognizant of the situation. Keeping calm in these situations may seem like a challenge, but due to her training, Haygood feels prepared. “You’ve got to accept right away that this person is dealing with a situation that you cannot fix,” she said. “You learn to give yourself time to respond, taking two or three breaths before saying anything.” Haygood said there aren’t what might be called “techniques” for calming and comforting people; it’s just about listening. She said one of the most important
emotional responsibilities is to let the people she is helping feel whatever they are feeling. “The other main responsibility is to try to leave the people that we’re helping in a condition that they know what they are going to do next, so that they have a plan for the next couple of days.” Looking forward is important because it helps remind people that they will, one day, feel better. Haygood said she helps people focus on what they are going to do next to keep their lives going. “Getting people prepared to act is
probably the most positive thing you can do for someone who is grieving,” she said. She also said, “You try to make sure that things are going to be more or less under control when you leave so they can (feel empowered to do) all the things that has to be done when a person dies.” The training they get not only mentally prepares Haygood and the other volunteers, but also offers them support for when emotions get heavy. Haygood said a debriefing tool she uses is reminding herself that she helped people. “The sense that you have been able to help these people get through this immediate trauma is very gratifying, so you can say ‘it was a terrible situation, but I was able to help’ and that keeps you going,” she said. Haygood has the added benefit of having her husband volunteer in the same work. “We debrief each other and support each other,” she said. Her husband — to whom she has been married for over 60 years
— won a Volunteer of the Year Award in 2010. Now, it’s Haygood’s turn to be honored. The San Diego Police Department named Haygood Crisis Interventionist of the Year at their April ceremony. “She has a soft manner about her that is comforting to those going through a traumatic event,” said Rick Kirchhoff, SDPD Volunteer Services officer for crisis, reserve and cadets. “I know that if Noreen is being sent to any type of scene she will go there with the intent to help anyone in need and not ask for anything in return. She truly gives freely of herself to benefit others.” Her nomination form states, “Noreen often accepts assignments at the last minute and is always willing to step in to help if nobody else is available. Her quiet strength has been an inspiration to her fellow team members. Noreen shows everyone the right reasons to volunteer through her hard work and willingness to sacrifice. She is truly a valued member of the SDPD and Crisis Intervention Team.”

She shoots and scores bigtime:
La Jolla Country Day’s Kelsey Plum cannot leave it all on the court By Ashley Mackin La Jolla Country Day senior basketball star Kelsey Plum is one player who does not leave it all on the court. For the accomplished athlete, the (not so) secret to her success is practice. As obvious at it might sound, the five-footeight player said practice is the most important part of the game. She said it gives her a “psychological edge, knowing that you put up more time and shots than your competitor.” And the hours of practice have done her well, as Plum was named to the all-CIF team for winter sports in December, was named Cal-Hi Sport’s Ms. Basketball State Player of the Year for California, scored her 2,000th career point in February, took the LJCDS Torreys to CIF Regional Semi-Finals in March and just got back from a week-long trip to play with other top players, which she calls the “greatest experience of her life.” On April 2, Plum competed in the McDonald’s All-American Game in Chicago, which features the top 48 players in the country. On April 6, she competed in the WBCA AllAmerican Game in New Orleans, which brings the top 20 national players together, and was coached by players from the WNBA. For this and every game, Plum said, “The biggest preparation comes from practicing, mostly on your own.” Plum wakes up at 5:30 a.m. to practice shooting by herself, goes to school, has the team practice,
All Star Kelsey Plum poses with La Jolla Country Day School Girls Basketball Coach Terri Bamford. Michael Ragovin followed by more individual practice. “The hours you practice with your team is all your team stuff — plays and offense — but I think personally that doesn’t count,” she said. “When people say ‘did you practice today?’ I only say yes if I practiced by myself. “I think a lot of young athletes don’t get

that you can’t just go to your team practice, work hard and expect to be a standout.” Plum said she believes that when it comes to skill, it’s 85 percent practice and 15 percent natural ability. What she does attribute to natural ability comes from her family, who she said are all very competitive. Having originally placed her in recreation basketball league in fourth grade, her dad took her out because it wasn’t competitive enough. She escalated to play in leagues for older children and in boy’s leagues. With two older sisters and one younger brother (who is six-foot-two), Plum said she was “always the little guy” when her family would play sports. Her sisters, who both play college volleyball, are her role models. Though she is the only one in her family who plays basketball, Plum said the sport is “always with me.” When she’s not playing or practicing basketball, she’s watching it or thinking about it, even admitting to thinking about upcoming games during class. She said she watches College basketball, the WNBA and the NBA (including the playoffs), especially the Oklahoma City Thunder and Kevin Durant. She said she appreciates Durant because he is humble, but gets the job done. Mimicking that humble attitude, she attributes her 2,000th point to her team.
“Honestly, 2,000 points is just a symbol of different coaches I’ve had and my teammates passing me the ball. It’s more accolades for the school and the town that’s supported us over the years,” she said. Even though her basketball season is over, she still practices regularly in preparation for attending Washington University next year. While in college, she said she plans to win the National Championship and has aspirations to play in the WNBA, eventually finding a career as a sports analyst. Her experience at La Jolla Country Day has been a great starting off point. “La Jolla Country Day is great community, they are super supportive, but none of this would have happened if I wasn’t coached by (Terri) Bamford. She really pushed me and I’m so grateful because she made me into the player that I am.” That appreciation seems to go both ways, as Bamford calls Plum “A coach’s dream player.” She said, “(Plum’s) work ethic is off the charts, and she has such passion and excitement for the game. ... Kelsey loves to practice and has set the standard of how hard you have to work to be successful. She has grown so much in the past four years in her skill set, basketball IQ and her leadership. ... Kelsey is an amazing player to coach and I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to be her coach these past four years.”

La Jolla Country Day softball topples Santa Fe Christian 11-1 By Michael Ragovin The Santa Fe Christian girls softball team came to La Jolla looking for an upset win over Country Day on April 18. Unfortunately, they were looking in the wrong place as the Torreys hammered the Eagles 11-1. It was a very close game until the bottom of the fifth, where it really got away from Santa Fe Christian. An early batter at the top of the first sent a single up the middle, putting a runner on first. The next batter struck out and the runner on first stole second. The following batter singled to right and the runner from second scored the game’s first run. After one half inning of play, Country Day found themselves trailing 1-0. In the bottom of the first the Torreys went quietly except for a walk to Jessica Lewis. At the end of one, the Eagles were still ahead 1-0. Christie Campbell allowed a base on balls to start the bottom of second. The
runner was erased trying to steal second. The other two outs came on a groundout to short and a grounder to the pitcher. Kayla Magid grounded out to the shortstop to start the bottom half of the second. Katie Lamkin reached first on a base on balls. The catcher tried to pick Lamkin off and threw the ball into right field. Lamkin raced all the way to third. Jenna Anderson stepped to the plate and promptly singled, driving Lamkin home for Country Day’s first run. Kylie Benjamin walked, putting runners on first and second with two outs. Emily Springfield hit a hard line drive, unfortunately it was right at the pitcher for the third out. The Torreys tied the score at one apiece. In the top of the third Campbell got the Eagles on two strikeouts and a pop out. The bottom of the third started with Katie Lyle getting a base on balls. A walk to Campbell and a groundout to the third
baseman put runners on second and third with two outs. The runners were left stranded when Lamkin struck out. The first batter in the top of the fourth singled to center. There was pop up to the shortstop; a pop up to the pitcher and the runner on first was caught trying to steal second for out number three. The bottom of the fourth was uneventful except for Benjamin striking out, but reaching first when the catcher dropped the third strike. At the end of four the score was still knotted at one. It was the bottom of the fifth where it all unraveled for the Eagles. Lewis led off with a single and went to second on an error by the second baseman. Taylor Johnson singled and Lewis scored. Campbell drew a walk and Magid did the same and the bases were loaded. Lamkin hit a groundball to second, who threw home, however, the runner from third was safe and another run scored. The second baseman could not handle a groundball from Anderson and another run scored leaving the bases still loaded and no outs. Amarita Assumull struck out and there was one out. Benjamin walked driving in another run. Springfield drew still another walk and another

Students create art for ‘The Buddhas of Bird Rock’ display By Will Bowen Sip a hot cup of tantalizingly rich medium roast coffee; savor the sea breeze wafting through the large lift-up windows and contemplate some deep art. It’s an enlightening experience, which can be found only at Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, 5627 La Jolla Blvd., where art meets business. “We here at Bird Rock Coffee Roasters think local arts and local business should go together,” said Chris O’Brien, a manager at the coffee shop. “That’s why we have rotating art shows featuring the work of area artists hanging here on the walls for our customers to enjoy.” Currently, there are two shows on display at the café, which will be up at least until the end of April. Both come from art teachers and their students. For those who like cartoons, storyboards and meaningful life stories, Robin Williams, a teacher at High Tech High (Liberty Station in Point Loma), has installed a series called “The New Path of the Buddha.” This exhibition features 11 stories composed on Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator, which are based on the theme of the Buddha’s life path, as depicted in Herman Hesse’s classic book, “Siddhartha.” See ART, B6

La Jolla Historical Society’s Secret Garden Tour returns May 18
La Jolla Cultural Partners
By Ashley Mackin The famed Secret Garden Tour, the primary fundraiser for the La Jolla Historical Society, is back for its 15th year from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 18. While the tour will still showcase six different gardens, there are some new and improved features this year. For the first time, Wisteria Cottage, 780 Prospect St., will be the site of a Garden Boutique. Also, building off its success last year, attendees can pick up their maps and wristbands the day before the event. Each garden, kept secret until participants pick up their wristbands, vary in location and style, organizers said. “Generally we try to run the full gamut,” said co-chair Sue Kalish, adding there will be a house on the coast and one in the Muirlands area, small and large homes, and one rose garden. In addition to the gardens, at each location visitors will find an artist painting scenes of the gardens, a table-scape designer and plant experts to explain what all the plants are and answer questions. Some locations will also include live music. New this year is the Garden Boutique, which co-chair Pam Filley said will make Wisteria Cottage “look like a party is happening here.” In front of the cottage, vendors will sell lavender from North County, as well as lanterns, birdhouses, unique jewelry, antiques and garden sculptures. The Historical Society will have coffee and snacks and Amici’s Pizzeria will provide samples for boutique shoppers. Participants don’t have to be on the tour

to go to the boutique. “We see this as a unique opportunity to have unusual vendors,” Kalish said. “They won’t be people you’d find at the Farmers Market. We wanted to bring something new to La Jolla.” Also new to the tour is the day-before check-in, which started last year and is being improved upon this year. “In past years, people had to come the morning of (the tour) and it was crazy, everybody trying to get their tickets and
plus a bonus seventh garden, and get brunch at Estancia La Jolla Hotel. Platinum tickets are $150. Funds raised through the Secret Garden Tour support the Historical Society’s programs, exhibits, collections and preservation efforts.

wristbands,” Filley said. “Now you can come the day before, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. (at Wisteria Cottage) or we’ve got a drivethrough on Eads Avenue, so they don’t even have to get out of their cars.” Whether they pick up the map the day before or the morning of, those on the selfguided tour can drive to the six gardens in any order and stay at each one for as long as they like. Tickets for the self-guided tour are $50. On the Platinum Tour, participants are driven by bus to each of the gardens,

Seafood, service, seasonal selections shine at Sally’s By Kelley Carlson rom the ocean floor and straight to its door, Sally’s Seafood on the Water serves fresh catch from the local docks. Located on the Manchester Grand Hyatt property with one of the largest downtown waterfront patios, the restaurant is conveniently just around the bend from the Chesapeake Fish Co., which has access to 90 vessels and processes seafood daily. “We want you to have the best quality, the best food you can get,” Chef-de-Cuisine Laura De Martin said. Sally’s offers California/Mediterraneanstyle cuisine in an upscale-casual environment that is suitable for most, whether it’s couples on dates or families from out of town. The upper-and-lower dining rooms are spacious with an industrial-yet-modern design. Large, vibrant, original paintings by artist Craig Kindel grace the walls, and floor-to-ceiling windows allow for plenty of sun by day. In the evening, the lights dim and candles glow atop classic marble tabletops. Servers constantly traverse the marble-andstone floor to check on guests and deliver dishes that are of high standards. “Nothing goes out that’s ‘OK’ — it’s perfect or it’s not (going out to the table),” De Martin said. The fare is made with sustainable, organic ingredients that are obtained as locally as possible; the menu changes seasonally in reflection of ingredient availability. As guests sit at the table and peruse the menu, they can nibble on warm slices of Lemon Thyme Ciabatta, served with sweet butter and a mixture of sea salt and pink peppercorns to sprinkle on top.

On The Menu Recipe 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:
Sally’s Seafood on the Water’s Crab Cake The dining room features large windows with views of the marina. PHOTOS By Kelley Carlson To further whet their appetites, there are starters such as the creamy Smoked Bay Scallop Chowder with black pepper creme fraiche, and Shiitake Chicken Spring Rolls that can be dipped in a cilantro sauce. There are also several types of salads, including California Greens, with long cucumber slices, chunks of tomato and a light lemonherb dressing. Sally’s has a variety of entrees — including meat, vegetarian, and gluten- and dairy-free — but naturally, seafood is among its specialties. There’s the homemade Dungeness Crab Pasta, a unique combination with oven-dried tomatoes, corn gremolata, soft shell crab and bottarga (caviar); the tender Pacific Ahi Tuna on a bed of purple mashed potatoes in misomustard sauce; and delicate Diver Scallops in a miso-mustard sauce with thyme roasted carrots and sautéed broccolini. A staff-recommended wine that will pair with pretty much anything on the menu is
The Four Graces Pinot Noir 2011 from Willamette Valley, Ore. The red wine is earthy, yet fruity. To close out the meal, there are a number of desserts. Among them are the sweet-andsalty creme fraiche Pana Cotta, topped with black bowfin caviar and salted caramel sauce; Creamsicle Gelato; and Banana Trifle, featuring layers of banana mousse, chocolate cake and caramelized banana. Children have two menus from which to choose: one designed by Alice Waters that consists of organic foods, and the other based on Sally’s entrees. Lunch and dinner are served daily, and breakfast is offered during weekends. For a special group dining experience, there’s a Chef’s Table next to the kitchen. Patrons can experience the sounds and sights of the chefs in action while dining from a five-course tasting menu that’s tailored to specifications with an optional wine pairing.
Those who are seeking a more laid-back setting can venture into the bar to catch the latest sports and news coverage on TV while nursing a local draft or a specialty cocktail, such as the carbonated Blueberry Mojito garnished with lime. But to truly get the essence of Sally’s, General Manager Chris Reid recommends sitting on the heated front patio for al fresco dining. The waterfront views are great for people watching, he said, and it’s dogfriendly. Live music from local bands nearby can be heard during the weekends, and as the weather warms, guests will also detect sounds from Summer Pops concerts at the nearby Embarcadero Marina Park. The patio is the perfect spot to nosh on Crab Cakes with tomato relish and avocado aioli, Reid said. He also suggests sampling the unusual Kazoo Roll, a mixture of salmon, mango, avocado, red-leaf lettuce and rice inside a soy wrap and topped with crushed pistachio.

For those who enjoy contemplating children’s art, Bird Rock Coffee Roasters is also showcasing an exhibit curated by Alyson Blum, who hung a collection of art from her second grade class at Bird Rock Elementary School titled, “Robots, Aliens and Spaceships (Oh My)!” This is
a very amusing and heartwarming series of fancy-frilly children’s depictions and imaginings. The Stories It’s a real challenge to read all 11 of the storyboards from Williams’ high school class all in one sitting, but they are all very intriguing, quirky kinds of stories that might be read over the course of a couple of visits to the cafe. All the protagonists in the stories usually start out in rich or powerful family situations but seek something more and so move through a process that

Art in the Pines festival to expand its offerings for 2013 From Docent Society Reports
The fourth annual “Art in the Pines” juried plein-air show presented by the Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve Docent Society and Torrey Pines Association is set for 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, May 4; and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, May 5 at the Reserve, just south of the Torrey Pines Lodge. This year, for the first time, artist participation was open to all California residents. The 2013 event will feature the work of more than 50 artists from well-known masters of the landscape to new talent. Throughout the park there will also be artist booths with nature-inspired art for sale in a variety of media — painting, pastels, drawing, sculpture, ceramics and photography. There will also be food, musical entertainment, children’s art activities, a raffle and silent auction, guided nature walks, tours of the historic Torrey Pines Lodge, and expert demonstrations in painting and basket weaving. Guests are encouraged to hike the Reserve during all of April and the beginning of May to observe dozens of artists at work. Their paintings will be judged and awarded cash prizes and ribbons at noon on Saturday and then be available for sale the weekend of the festival. Art in the Pines provides opportunities for individuals, community organizations, foundations and businesses to support children’s nature programs at the Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve. That model program serves 4,000 children in the San Diego area every year with an exemplary outdoor experience tied to the school curriculum. The event is free, but there is a charge for parking. The Reserve has two parking lots, South Beach and North Beach. The lot closest to the event is the South Beach Lot

where there will be preferred parking for $20 per car. Guests will not be able to use annual passes of any kind on Saturday and Sunday in the South Lot. In the North Lot, guests will be able to use passes on those days or the charge is $10 per car. A free shuttle will run frequently from both lots, or guests may enjoy walking to the event. It is a 15-minute walk from the South Beach Parking Lot. Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve located between La Jolla and Del Mar. The park entrance is on the right just before the highway begins to climb the Torrey Pines grade. The street address is 12600 North Torrey Pines Road.

FROM Cinema League, B1 display during May and June in the west wing of the library’s lower level. Paulson said the films are a great opportunity for the public to get a sense of life in La Jolla during the 1920s, from its “great cars and sharp clothes” to the “beautiful homes and gardens.” “You will also notice great screen-writing, great camera work and very good acting,” Paulson said of the amateur filmmakers, which he said approached their projects very professionally. League members wrote their own screenplays, ran the cameras, experimented with shooting angles and lighting, and developing the films with their own lab equipment. While the men operated the cameras, the women of the league directed most of the films (including Mrs. R.G.S. Berger, who owned a house where many of the films were shot). According to an article published by the San Diego History Center’s Journal of San Diego History, the LJCL was founded in 1926 and produced between five and 10 melodramas and newsreels ranging in length between five and 75 minutes, all likely shot on 16 millimeter film. Many of La Jolla’s historic buildings can be seen in the films, including Casa de Mañana (1924), the La Jolla Women’s Club (Irving Gill, 1914), an early campus of

Courtesy Photos Scripps Institution of Oceanography and “a delightfully unchanged biological grade,” Paulson said. “To see these movies and to really be there with some 1920s La Jollans, it’s exciting, it’s time travel,” said the silent film buff, who said he’s convinced that “talkies are just a fad.” The screenings will include melodramas such as “Consuelo di Capri,” the league’s first production (about a band of thugs who try to wrestle the deed to a valuable property away from an old man by kidnapping his daughter), and one of Paulson’s favorites, the dually-titled, “Virtue’s Reward or Blood for Bond” (about a weekend soiree at which pernicious partygoers attempt to steal bonds from good people). “They tell you this is an aristocratic family of modest means,” Paulson said of “Virtue’s Reward.” “It’s brilliant that they knew to backpedal. … It’s almost as if they had a focus group.” As an example of the LJCL’s work ethic and wit, in 1928 the league filmed the audience as they entered La Jolla’s American Legion Hall for a screening. While the audience watched a 75-minute feature, league members scurried to develop the arrival footage in a makeshift, on-site lab, which resulted in a startling encore starring the surprised audience, Paulson said.

FROM Cinema League, B8 The May 25 screenings will include several of the LJCL’s untitled, experimental films, including a chess game in which the pieces appear to “set themselves up, magically move themselves about the board and put themselves back into the fancy case where they belong,” Paulson said. “There’s a very dramatic death of the king,” he added. Paulson said he was aware of the league, though it was during the San Diego History Center’s 2002 exhibition on San Diego filmmaking (for which he was asked to perform live music as the silent films rolled) that he witnessed the full collection of LJCL movies. The LJCL was associated with a larger umbrella organization, the Amateur Cinema League, which offered the budding La Jolla auteurs extra encouragement and training through its monthly publication, Movie Makers, as well as a reference library of sorts through which its regional clubs’ films were made available to each another for viewing. Though Paulson said he is still searching for information on the league, he suspects their demise was largely due to the stock market crash of 1929. An editorial in the May 1929 edition of Movie Makers responding to “recent demonstrations in the speculative stock market,” assured readers (and advertisers) that “amateur movie making is the soundest type of recreational investment,” and that its “initial cost is not prohibitive yet it is high enough to emphasize to the purchaser that it is not an ephemeral thing.”

The first day of May is known as May Day. True. The Celtic name for May Day is Beltane, which means “day of fire,” and was an important festival meant to mark the coming of summer and fertility. A similar celebration called “Floralia” was marked on the Roman calendar. Over time, the rituals of Beltane and Floralia overlapped and are still practiced today. Traditional English May Day celebrations include Morris dancing, crowning a May Queen, and dancing around a Maypole. Putting a Maypole up involved taking a growing tree from the woods and bringing it to the village to mark the coming of summer. Single men and women would dance around the Maypole holding onto ribbons until they became entwined with their (hoped for) new loves. — wikipedia

Old Worlds to meet New World in symphonic concert From LJS&C Reports
If you go
The La Jolla Symphony & Chorus (LJS&C) will perform three works that present vivid musical images of Asia, Europe and America, in a program themed “Old Worlds/ New World,” May 4-5, at Mandeville Auditorium on the UC San Diego campus. Music Director Steven Schick will lead the orchestra in Chou Wen-chung’s “Landscapes,” Richard Strauss’s virtuosic “Horn Concerto No. 2,” and Edgard Varèse’s “Amériques,” a 1927 work that influenced Frank Zappa and a generation of rock artists. This will be the fifth concert of the 58th season, “Angle of Repose,” exploring themes inspired by Wallace Stegner’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name. “This is a very personal concert for me,” Schick said. “I can say with no exaggeration that without Varèse, I would not be a musician today. His ‘Amériques,’ ‘Déserts,’ and most importantly ‘Ionisation,’ written in 1931 for 13 percussionists, were my guiding lights as a student.”
■ What: Old Worlds/ New World, La Jolla Symphony & Chorus ■ When: 7:30 p.m. Saturday, May 4; 2 p.m. Sunday, May 5 ■ Where: Mandeville Auditorium at UCSD ■ Tickets: $15-$29 ■ Box Office: (858) 534-4637 ■ Website: lajollasymphony.com Schick noted the connections between the three composers on the program. A young Varèse, who had studied in Paris, moved to Berlin to begin his musical career and found an unlikely ally in Richard Strauss, one of the most influential composers at the time. A few doors were opened, but eventually Varèse decided that the Old World had little to offer him and moved to America. Decades later, Varèse is the famous (and perhaps infamous) composer of
some of the 20th century’s most inspired, powerful, and important music when a young Chinese composer and recent immigrant to America, Chou Wen-chung, seeks him out for composition lessons. “ ‘Landscapes’ was the composition Wen-chung was working on when he came to Varèse’s apartment to begin studying with him,” Schick said. “Landscapes,” first performed in 1953, is his best-known composition. It is a concise piece of music in three movements, spanning eight minutes. Chou based each movement on a traditional Chinese melody, each in turn linked to a Chinese poem. Richard Strauss’ (1864– 1949) father was one of the finest horn players of his time and a crucial influence on the composer’s abiding love for the instrument. Strauss finished “Horn Concerto No. 2 in E-flat Major” in 1942 at the age of 78, with WWII darkening the world around him. The opening Allegro begins with the horn soloist alone: the

octave leap and flourish establish not only the virtuoso character of this music but also its essentially lyric nature. Horn player Nicolee Kuester solos. She was LJS&C’s 2011 Young Artists Competition firstplace winner and is now principal horn in the orchestra. Varèse (1883–1965) wrote “Amériques” between 1918 and 1922. It was one of the first works from the young French composer after moving to the U.S. and
settling in New York City. Varèse intended the title of the work to symbolize “discoveries — new worlds on Earth, in the sky, or in the minds of men.” “Amériques” is scored for a gigantic orchestra, one that includes eight horns, six trumpets, five trombones, two harps, and nine percussionists, who play a total of 27 different instruments. Among these are such unusual instruments as the lion’s roar and a siren, the latter a deep wailing siren as

heard on New York City fire trucks, a characteristically “urban” sound to the composer. Varèse did not write in traditional form, and listeners should not expect thematic ideas to “develop.” The dynamic range is huge — from the barely-audible to earsplitting intensity. Listeners will be struck by the extraordinary writing for percussion in this 24-minute score, almost a world unto itself, full of strange new sounds and rhythms.

No rhyme or raisin: National wrinkled grape day is April 30 upon grapes shriveling on a vine. Hundreds of years later vineyards were developed and cultivators in southern Spain were producing the finest Muscat raisins. Meanwhile, the Greeks were growing tiny, seedless currants. During the 18th century Spanish missionaries living in Mexico (also adept viticulturists) came to California to teach farmers how to grow grapes for wine production. In the late 1800s California’s first raisin crop was produced as a result of a fluky heat wave scorching the Joaquin Valley grapes before harvest (most dried on the vine before the farmers could pick them). Soon after, a Scottish immigrant, William Thompson, began growing a seedless grape variety that he found ideal candidates for raisins. These events launched California as a commercial blockbuster for raisin production, the majority made from Thompson seedless grapes.

ach year nature’s perfect “candy,” raisins, are celebrated with a pair of national holidays: National Raisin Day on April 30 and National Raisin Week, which kicks off May 1. As a child I was deprived of this sweet, nutrientpacked treat, as raisins were then maligned for causing cavities (and my mouth was full of them). Times they are a-changin,’ and this precious little package is now celebrated. Here’s why. Nothing new under the sun Raisins were discovered serendipitously in ancient times (circa 1400 B.C.) when farmers stumbled
Raisin rewards These high-fiber, glutenfree, energy powerhouses
are rife with iron to pump up red blood cell formation to prevent or treat anemia, as well as stress-relieving B-complex vitamins and potassium and magnesium to neutralize acid attacks. Phenolic phytonutrients in raisins put out fever fires by fighting viral and bacterial infections, while the Boron in raisins builds bones and absorbs calcium to prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis, and Vitamin A and Beta Carotene boost eye health and ward off agerelated ocular diseases. Raisins also contain the mighty resveratrol (although in lesser concentrations than fresh grapes), a powerful antioxidant phytochemical that has been found to lessen stroke risks, lower blood cholesterol levels, and have a protective effect against heart disease and certain cancers. Finally, those sexy little morsels are nature’s Viagra, igniting the libidinal fires with Argenine, an amino acid that tinkers with the romantic wiring in the brain. In India an age-old custom on nuptial night

The seedy side of raisins One word of caution: some raisins (especially golden varieties) are treated with sulfur dioxide, which could cause a reaction to those with asthma or sulfur sensitivities. Standing advice: read labels carefully. Heard it through the grapevine n California grows half of the global raisin supply and 95 percent of the U.S. supply. n The etymological root of the word “raisin” comes
from the Latin “racemus,” meaning “a cluster of grapes or berries.” n It takes four pounds of fresh grapes to yield a single pound of raisins. n A grape basks in the sun for two to three weeks to morph into a raisin. n Raisins comprise 30 percent of California’s grape production, snagging second place only to wine. n Ancient Roman physicians lauded raisins for their miraculous curative powers, from alleviating mushroom poisoning to putting the skids on aging. The revered raisin transformed into barter currency (two jars traded for one slave).
Something to smile about No longer the evil tooth monster, raisins on the contrary have been found to actually prevent tooth decay thanks to the presence of a phytochemical called oleanolic acid, a mighty warrior against the bacteria responsible for causing cavities and gum disease. In fact, it is the stickiness in raisins that provides an added protective oomph giving the oleanolic acid more staying power. Also, loaded with calcium, raisins strengthen teeth and enamel. So go ahead, pop a handful of plump, dark Thompsons, golden Sultanas (dried white grapes) or currants (dried red grapes), or toss them in your oatmeal, granola, muffins, pancakes, scones, zucchini and carrot cakes, baked apples or apple strudel. Whip up a Mediterranean quinoa tabouli with dried apricots and raisins, a rice pilaf, egg noodle, raisin and ricotta casserole, sweet and sour cabbage rolls, rice and raisin pudding or this blissfully spicy rum and raisin sauce to enliven everything from ice cream to chicken, pork and vegetarian dishes.

UC San Diego Dance Theater professor Yolande Snaith dances with 50 pairs of shoes in ‘100 Feet,’ her multimedia tribute to inspirational women at the UCSD Wagner Dance Building on May 3-4. Photos by Jim Carmody
‘100 Feet’ celebrates famous female footsteps By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt “100 Feet” is a one-woman dance theater performance with a supporting cast of 50 pairs of shoes. The multimedia piece, designed, choreographed and performed by Yolande Snaith, head of UC San Diego’s Graduate Dance Theater, is a tribute to 50 famous women who have influenced her thinking and left their distinctive footprints in the sands of time. The women, ranging from Joan of Arc to Gertrude Stein, Billie Holiday, Marilyn Monroe and Princess Diana, are certainly diverse, and their words and images mix with Snaith’s own reminiscences and movements as she slips in and out of moods and costumes. Stepping into their shoes, she recreates herself. Born in Britain, Snaith has a broad background in dance, theater, visual arts and theatrical
design. In addition to having her own dance company, which toured internationally, she has received commissions from opera, television and film companies, and did the choreography for Stanley Kubrick’s last film, “Eyes Wide Shut.” Since joining UCSD’s Theater and Dance faculty in 2002, she has often collaborated with her colleagues here. For “100 Feet,” she worked with video artist Natalia Velerdi, sound designer Nicholas Drashner and lighting designer Wen-Liang Liao to create the perfect ambience for a piece that combines memoir, women’s history and flights of fancy, and features poetry, humor and “princess shoes.” The idea for “100 Feet” first came to Snaith as she faced turning 50. “There was something about that transition that made it seem

by then. So I thought of looking for inspiration from women who had come before me, women I admired. I was turning 50, so I wanted 50 women, a quote from each of them that really meant something to me. And I decided they all had to be dead, so I could bring them back to life.” She chose 50 women who knew how to stand on their own two feet: 50 women, with two feet each, gave the piece its title. She started with dancers, like Martha Graham, but what became the core of the piece was a quote from Gertrude Stein: “The minute you or anybody else knows what you are, you are not it.” This suggested that life was not about being stuck with one identity, but constantly changing, and gave Snaith the idea for the shifting personas in “100 Feet.” The first performance of the work-in-progress was in March

2011, at the university art gallery, as part of UCSD’s 50th anniversary celebration. After a year of finetuning, Snaith brought the piece to Space 4 Art in East Village last October. Now it’s back on campus again, in a larger space. Snaith called working on “100 Feet” a “transformative journey.” “I’m becoming more an entertainer than a dancer,” she said. “I’m speaking a lot more, learning to use my voice in different ways. I’ve begun to find my own voice through the voices of these women, and I’ve discovered there’s a side of me that really enjoys entertaining. And on a personal level, I’m allowing myself to be very vulnerable, because the piece reveals so much about me.” Which brings her to a Mae West quote that’s one of her favorites: “It’s better to be looked over than overlooked.”

A family wound reopens at Christmas in The Old Globe’s ‘Other Desert Cities’ By Diana Saenger Family secrets can either tear a family apart or bring them together. That’s the theme of playwright Jon Robin Baitz’s 2011 “Other Desert Cities,” directed by Richard Seer and opening April 27 at the Old Globe Theatre. The play went to Broadway just months after it premiered and was a finalist for the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The Wyeth’s are a well-to-do couple in Palm Springs excited that their children are coming home for Christmas. After a few days of tennis and humorous conversation, their joy of being together begins to unravel. That’s because Brooke (Dana Green) has announced she’s written a memoir that she won’t show her parents. “It seems to The Old Globe Theatre’s be an Associate Artist Robert indictment of Foxworth will appear the parents over as Lyman Wyeth in the their treatment San Diego premiere of of Brooke’s older Jon Robin Baitz’s ‘Other brother and the Desert Cities.’ Snaps Studio event of his running away and, eventually, suicide,” said Robert Foxworth, Old Globe Associate Artist who plays Lyman, Brooke’s father. “At one point, Brooke had a mental breakdown and Lyman and her mother spent a year back East as part of her rescue.” Drama builds in this home where everyone has an iconic past. Her younger brother (Andy Bean) is a reality show producer; her dad a former movie actor turned politician; and her mother (PollyKanids) a 1960s-era comedy writer turned socialite. Brooke’s sister, Silda, (Robin Pearson Rose), freshly out of rehab, is also at home for a visit. Revelations in Brooke’s memoir change the dynamics of the family, especially for her dad. “They’ve been very close historically,” Foxworth said. “But she has a memory of her dad with the older son that she writes about negatively in her book. It’s a disastrous slap in the face to her father because he’s been very caring of her.” The family’s politics also fuel the gathering. Movie actor dad became involved

There will be questions about where we stand in terms of how we tell the real story of our families without hurting people. Politics will also be on people’s minds, especially concerning how parents’ politics can affect a family.”

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDINGS AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. On May 10, 2013 at 09:00 AM, Auction.com Room at Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina, 1380 Harbor Island Drive, San Diego, CA 92101, MTC FINANCIAL INC. dba TRUSTEE CORPS, as the duly Appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded on February 3, 2005 as Instrument No. 20050094825 of official records in the Office of the Recorder of San Diego County, California, executed by JULIO LOPEZ AND LINDSAY HALLETT, as Trustor(s), in favor of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. as Beneficiary, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. 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. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. 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. 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.

A
kindergarten class from Bird Rock Elementary School took an April 16 tour of “Lifelike,” the current exhibition on view at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla, which is on display through May 27. This group exhibition invites a close examination of artworks based on commonplace objects and situations, which are startlingly realistic, often playful, and sometimes surreal. One of the moms/chaperones called the exhibition “very kid-friendly” and said the tiny elevators by Maurizio Cattelan were a favorite among the children. The hour-long Look/Explore tour was followed by an ArtLab workshop, which offered an additional hour of hands-on art making, in which students further explored process and materials. School tours are just one educational resource offered by MCASD. Other educational resources include: workshops, tours, curriculum guides for teachers and professional development opportunities for educators. The museum offers free public tours every Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. and the third Thursday of every month at 5 and 6 p.m.; no reservations necessary. School and private tours can be booked online at mcasd.org/learn/tours

Bishop’s students return from eye-opening trip to India
The 25 Bishop’s School students gather in New Delhi during a trip to visit a Project Concern International shelter, for which they spent months raising money. Courtesy Photos
By Ashley Mackin On March 26, students from The Bishop’s School returned from an eye-opening trip to India and Nepal. While there, the 25 young travelers spent four days and nights at a shelter they helped support through fundraising. Over the last six months, the students raised money through individual efforts and an account with the website crowdrise.com, where they raised money to support the Orphans and Vulnerable Children program of Project Concern International (PCI), which has a shelter and vocational training center in India. While staying at the shelter, students saw how their fundraising dollars were used. The students also buddied up with a child at the shelter, the most meaningful aspect of the trip for Dylan De Waart. “Even though there was a language barrier and we were there for (only a few) days, despite all that, we were able to form a strong emotional relationship,” De Waart said of his 13-year-old buddy, as

well as a much younger buddy De Waart also befriended, named Karan. “At the time, I didn’t really think I was impacting their lives or anything … but it turned out we were a big deal in their lives and they became a big deal in our lives too,” De Waart said. After leaving the shelter, De Waart and the other students went sightseeing in New Delhi, where they saw a young boy begging on the street that resembled Karan. “The hardest thing was realizing that this kid looked so much (like) Karan in his smile and his actions, that it just as well could have been Karan. If he hadn’t gone to that shelter home, he could have been there begging at the mosque. … It showed what life could be without the shelter home,“ he said. For Cameron Klaus, another Bishop’s School junior, staying at the shelter was more meaningful to her than if she had gone and stayed at a hotel. She said staying at the

La Jolla is home, and like all homes, it needs maintenance and TLC. Mere tax dollars aren’t enough. Together, we can pool our resources to keep La Jolla the jewel that it is. Bishop’s student Dylan De Waart (bottom) took these photos of locals while in India. FROM India, B28 shelter not only showed her what poverty looks like, but the effect it has on children. “It was so amazing to have that experience and to learn from people that have experienced so much and yet are so happy and grateful and amazing in every single way,” she said. De Waart also commented on the sense of gratitude seen in the Indian children. “Even though we have a lot here, I feel they were a lot happier there,” he said. “My buddy, the biggest thing that I took from him was his smile. No matter where he was, he had a big smile.” Observing that gratitude in the children generated some in Bishop’s students too. “I think one of the biggest things I got from the trip is how lucky we are and how resilient they are,” De Waart said. “Things that seem meaningless here go a long way over there.” Fundraising is ongoing for the program, which searches for young children, mostly boys, that have been abused, run away from home or have become orphaned, and have to work on the streets at a young age. The program places them in the shelter, where they receive food, health care, a

To contribute, visit crowdrise.com/pciglobalswc/fundraiser/pciglobal While there is a PCI-sponsored vocational center for girls, there are more boys living on the street, said Uli Heine, PCI Director of Development. PCI programs help approximately 1,000 children per year. For these neglected or abused children, the donations and visits from the La Jolla students enforce another important element of PCI’s mission. “It just shows that someone cares about them and they are worth it,” De Waart said.
