Mayor Bob Filner cuts through red tape to begin long-overdue Cove stench cleanup
Phil Wise, a senior vicepresident with Colliers International real estate, noted that Shiku Sushi also opened this month in La Jolla Plaza (1271-1277 Prospect St. between Ivanhoe Avenue and Roslyn Lane). Four of the spaces in La Jolla Plaza have been vacant since last year when Nicole Miller, an art gallery and Italian handbag company closed. Of the four spaces, 900 square feet of restaurant space is available, including a 450-square-foot patio. “Prospect Street has long been home to the most coveted retail sites in the jewel box of La Jolla,” Wise said, though noting that in recent years businesses entering the Village such as Puesto, Wisknladle, Brooks Brothers and Seaside Home

By Pat Sherman and Ashley Mackin hough La Jolla bid adieu to the upscale Hotel Parisi this month, many more businesses are entering the Village to fill the void left by the former Prospect Street hotelier. Across the street, La Valencia Hotel has finished room renovations and is preparing for the expanded reopening of the new Café La Rue in late August or early September. It will include sidewalk seating along Prospect Street and a glass-covered arbor in the front patio area, to accommodate Café La Rue guests. Managing director Mark Dibella said La Valencia’s new “lighter, brighter, more accessible” front entry, including new columns, should be complete July 1.

Clang! Clang! Trolley coming
By Ashley Mackin Old Town Trolley will add a tour of La Jolla to its lineup late this summer, transporting visitors from Old Town to Mount Soledad to somewhere to be determined in La Jolla, then on to Belmont Park and back to Old Town, ideally every hour. Participants could get on the orange and green trolley, stay at any of the spots for as long as they like, and pick up another trolley to move on. David Thornton of the trolley company presented the plan to the La Jolla Traffic & Transportation advisory board on May 23, seeking its recommendations for where in town the trolley could drop off and pick up riders. The difficulty, he said, has been finding a place near the Children’s Pool or the Cove that would be safe to drop people off without causing traffic congestion. The board suggested finding a city bus stop in La Jolla Village, so visitors would walk past local merchants on their way to the beach. Thornton said it would help to have the community’s support when the trolley company goes to MTS to apply for a permit to use a city bus stop. Responding to concerns that residents might be against the trolley, Thornton said, “One way to look at it is, one vehicle holds 30-35 people, so those are people who not taking cars and not taking up parking spaces.”

LA JOLLA NEWS BRIEFS n Injured sea lions found at La Jolla Cove As many as five sea lions were discovered at La Jolla Cove last week with gouges around their necks, after apparently being caught in fishing line. SeaWorld was contacted about the injuries and, with assistance from lifeguards, is monitoring the animals’ condition. At press time, the sea lions were either submerged in water or resting on slippery rock formations deemed unsafe for SeaWorld rescuers to access. “We rescue and return several animals each year that have fishing gear related injuries,” said SeaWorld’s curator of mammals, Keith Yip. “A vast majority of the time it is too dangerous for our staff and the animal to attempt rescue.” SeaWorld Director of Communications David Koontz added that marine mammals are often impacted by pollution like fishing line, netting or other plastics. “An animal can be entangled for quite some time, and as they grow it becomes a
greater issue because it can start to cut into their body,” Koontz said. n Seal Cam monitoring approved by commission California Coastal Commission staff analyst Kanani Brown said the Commission approved San Diego Mayor Bob Filner’s request to use the Seal Cam to meet the terms of a coastal development permit allowing a year-round rope at Children’s Pool. The permit requires the city develop and implement a monitoring program of beach activity by seals and humans. Filner requested flexibility in how the city meets this special condition, including use of the Seal Cam as an acceptable method of recording the mandated beach activity. The Coastal Commission issued a notice of approval May 14. n DPR approves Starbucks patio La Jolla’s Development Permit Review (DPR) committee on May 14 approved Starbucks’ plan to
convert a former bank drivethru at its location at 1055 Torrey Pines Road to an outdoor patio. Starbucks is seeking coastal and site development permits for the 1,100-squarefoot, enclosed patio. The plans will be reviewed next by the La Jolla Community Planning Association. Starbucks corporate representative, Elizabeth Valerio, said it is the third time the company is presenting the plans to the community. The city has already approved the addition of a handicapped parking space and access required per the Americans with Disabilities Act, she said. However, DPR’s request that Starbucks close a driveway on Torrey Pines Road between its business and adjacent Bridget’s Blooms is the responsibility of the landlord and would require a traffic study. There are two other existing driveways into the property, which it shares with a Chipotle Mexican restaurant. “It’s going to be months and months, I would say at
Welcoming Muirlands Ranch
Starbucks is proposing to turn this former bank drive-thru into an outdoor patio area for its customers. PAT SHERMAN least six months, of (traffic) study,” Valerio said. “This is something that I proposed to the landlord. I haven’t gotten any response.” White Sands resident John Baker contacted the La Jolla Light to report the problem of traffic backing up along Torrey Pines Road as cars wait to enter the Starbucks parking lot. “People can’t get in, so they wait (and cars) continue to line up,” Baker said. “It’s absolutely an accident waiting to happen.”
DPR member Angeles Liero said a new traffic study might be warranted. n Lifeguard tower work to begin May 30 The City of San Diego confirmed that work on the new lifeguard tower at Children’s Pool beach would begin today. A requested waiver of the city’s summer, coastal construction moratorium was granted to allow the work to proceed. Myrna Dayton, a senior construction engineer with
the city’s Public Works department, said via e-mail that pre-construction meetings with the contractor, city inspector, staff and others would begin May 30 at the site. The contractor, Stronghold Engineering, will move onto the site to begin work June 3. Dayton said workers would fence off the area, relocate the existing, temporary tower and create another temporary tower before proceeding with the demolition. SEE BRIEFS, A18

New Southwest Fisheries labs improve technology By Ashley Mackin When the new Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC) Laboratory opens this summer, the NOAA research facility will be capable of much more than it’s former self. The new space implements energysaving technologies, has a 500,000-gallon research tank to better test its research vehicles, and improvements to the necropsy station, genetics labs, and the seawater aquaria for the study of marine life. Eco factors The new facility has green roofs that use photovoltaic power to provide solar energy to produce seven percent of the energy required for the entire building. The terraces are 30-percent covered in local plants to help collect and redistribute rainwater. The terrace bases lead to vegetated basins that collect excess water and slowly release into the city’s storm water system. On each of the floors that contain offices, there are high ceilings to allow hot air to rise and keep the offices cool, low energy ceiling fans, occupancy sensors for lights, and glass windows on both sides for natural light and fresh air.
DNA from fossils), scientists can handle genetic products more precisely, improving efficiency and with less chance of cross contamination, Messnick said. Biologist Jeff Hester is using the increased genetic lab space to study DNA patterns in bottle-nosed dolphins. He said through tiny samples of skin and blubber, scientists can extract DNA to determine how far dolphins travel, relatedness within pods, and understanding the health and stability of populations.
“Everywhere you look, there are energy-saving features,” said ecologist and science liaison Sarah Mesnick. The Development Tank Not only new to the facility, but also new to the world, is the 500,000-gallon, three-story tank used to test new equipment in any water standards. “If you’re designing something that takes months to create, you’d have to test it in the environment in which it would be used,” Mesnick said. Thanks to this tank, scientists in San Diego can develop and test vehicles for use in places like Antarctica or the tropics. The tank water can have its temperature and salinity changed to reflect water conditions anywhere on the planet. “Also, the tank is seismically and acoustically isolated from the rest of the building,” Mesnick said. When vehicles are being tested, researchers can add fish to the tank to verify that the results from the underwater vehicles are accurate. These research vessels provide fish population numbers that contribute to sustainable fishing practices. “If we like to eat fish, you want to be able to harvest fish at a rate that doesn’t
Steve Sessions with one of the underwater vehicles used in his studies. harm the population. The whole concept of sustainable fisheries is we need to know how many fish are out there, where they are and how they are responding to natural changes in the environment,” she said. “Sometimes conditions are good and there are more fish naturally, sometimes the water is warmer or colder and the fish respond to that, and we’d want to adjust our human harvest or anything humans do to not disrupt natural systems.” Steve Sessions, a scientist at SWFSC who works with underwater vehicles, said researchers check and cross

check their data to ensure it is correct. He said they use sound- and sonar-based underwater tests, take photos, and draw nets with cameras on them. The net trawls count how many fish are in an area, and the cameras record how many get out, so scientists can be completely certain of their numbers. Mesnick said as a result of their work, the fishing industry knows which areas and species need protecting, and which ones are recovering. Necropsy station Before the new facilities, necropsies (animal autopsys)
ASHLEY MACKIN
were performed outside the labs on the loading dock with a tarp. “Now we have a new laboratory designed so that scientists can freeze, process, move and dissect animals much more efficiently,” she said, adding the new station also minimizes the risk of contamination. SWFSC is investigating the recent unusually high mortality rate in sea lions in La Jolla and across southern California through necropsies. Additionally, the genetics lab has been improved. Designed for work with DNA in various forms (tissue, extracted DNA and ancient
Aquaria The seawater aquaria, a gathering of research tubs, is such a strong improvement, Mesnick said one goal is to use it to bring the endangered abalone species back up to stable numbers. The tubs, which have curtains that mimic daytime and nighttime light cycles, as well as temperature and salinity of different areas, help in the study of sea life. Researchers are currently studying the abalone’s mating and life cycles, as well as how large they can get in ideal conditions. “No one knew how to get abalone to spawn and how big they need to be before they can be planted until we started looking at it,” she said.

La Jolla High welcomes Bird Rock council students By Lorri Sabban La Jolla High School’s Associated Student Body members welcomed fellow student council members visiting from Bird Rock Elementary for a morning of shared experiences last week. ASB juniors and seniors showed the younger council reps around campus and spoke about student life at La Jolla High. Senior vicepresident Criselia Chavez guided a tour around campus. Philanthrophy rep Charlotte Hathaway and Marketing rep Kristen Chiu challenged two Bird Rock students to a race on the track. Their enthusiasm was contagious. ASB Spirit reps Tyson Youngs, David McColl and Dylan Walsh, along with Athletics rep Billy Penny, showed the Bird Rock reps a humorous, wellorchestrated dance video that prompted Youngs to get on his feet and show off his impressive moves. The field trip was a great way for the seasoned ASB members to mentor younger student council members and inspire them to remain passionate about things they can do to promote their school.

Real Estate TODAY by Janet Douglas
Tips For Buying in a Tight Market 1) Make sure you have met with your lender and have a pre-approval letter saying that you have been qualified to purchase at the price you are offering. Provide evidence of your down payment with your offer (copy of bank statement or letter from your bank or financial advisor). 2) Stay in close contact with your Realtor and make sure he or she is sending you the latest listings at least daily. 3) Be ready to make a decision. Spend a lot of time in advance deciding what you must have in a home so you won't be unsure when you have the chance to make an offer.
Financial Designs, Ltd.
4) Bid competitively. You may not get a chance to make a counter offer. Be prepared to pay full price or more.
5075 Shoreham Place, Suite 200 San Diego, CA. 92122 Phone (858) 597-1980 · Fax (858) 546-1106
5) Keep contingencies to a minimum. Restrictions such as needing to sell your present home before you move or wanting to delay the closing until a certain date can make your offer less appealing.

Research Report LynnE Friedmann
Center for brain activity mapping launched
R
esponding to President Barack Obama’s “grand challenge” to chart the function of the human brain in unprecedented detail, UC San Diego has established the Center for Brain Activity Mapping (CBAM). The new center will undertake development of a new generation of tools to enable recording of neuronal activity throughout the brain as well as conduct brainmapping experiments and data analysis. CBAM will bring together researchers from neuroscience, engineering, nanoscience, radiology, chemistry, physics, computer science and mathematics. Some CBAM projects will likely build on existing research at UC San Diego while others will be new initiatives, growing out of novel collaborations. The center will compete for national grant funds as well as pursue projects with the help of philanthropists and industry partners. More at http://bit.ly/12e1KEZ
Tumor protein promotes cancer spread Researchers at the UC San Diego School
of Medicine and UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center report that cancers physically alter cells in the lymphatic system to promote the spread of disease via metastasis. Roughly 90 percent of all cancer deaths are due to metastasis in which the disease spreads from the original tumor site to multiple, distant tissues and finally overwhelms the patient’s body. Lymph vessels are often the path of transmission, with circulating tumor cells lodging in the lymph nodes – organs distributed throughout the body that act as immune system garrisons and traps for pathogens and foreign particles. Researchers found that a protein growth factor expressed by tumors activates a receptor on lymphatic vessels in lymph node tissues, making them more “sticky” to metastatic tumor cells. The findings appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. News release at http://bit.ly/YSKgBA
disease. Current FDA-approved medications offer only fleeting short-term benefits for Alzheimer’s patients, and they do nothing to slow the steady, irreversible decline of brain function that erases a person’s memory and ability to think clearly. Now comes word that a drug known as J147, developed by scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, has been shown to slow Alzheimer’s and reverse memory deficits in aged mice following short-term treatment. In developing J147, researchers bucked the trend within the pharmaceutical industry, which has focused on the biological pathways involved in the formation of amyloid plaques, the dense deposits of protein that characterize
Alzheimer’s. Instead, the Salk team used living neurons grown in laboratory dishes to test whether their new synthetic compounds, which are based upon natural products derived from plants, were effective at protecting brain cells against several pathologies associated with brain aging. In one experiment, J147 was tested directly against Aricept, currently the most widely prescribed Alzheimer’s drug, and found to perform as well or better in several memory tests. The findings are published in the journal Alzheimer’s Research and Therapy. News release at http://bit.ly/14nt31s — Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.

FROM NEW BUSINESSES, A1 chose to open near the intersection of Wall Street and Herschel Avenue, where there were more vacancies and more moderate rents. “Although the marketplace shifted away from the coast for a brief period, life is now back and very much alive along Prospect Street,” Wise said. He pointed to recent restaurant openings such as Amaya La Jolla and Eddie V’s, as well as this year’s opening of the new La Jolla Village Information Center and a current remodel of the former Top of the Cove site, which the owner plans to lease to a high-end restaurant tenant, along the lines of the Chart House. “For many years these sites were black holes on the street,” Wise said. “Fortunately, all is now right on Prospect.” Black hole to chic bazaar The business community is abuzz with news that the Village’s largest retail void, the three-story building at the corner of Wall Street and Girard Avenue (formerly housing Jack’s La Jolla restaurant) will soon undergo
Elsie and Danny Arredondo purchased Monarch Gallery at 1205 Prospect St. At the April opening are Salina Arredondo, painter Dmitry Danish, Elsie Arredondo, Danny Arredondo, sculptor Ron Jermyn and Adam Arredondo. Leon Chow / Mary Soriano a high-end renovation. The building at 7863 Girard Ave. has sat almost completely vacant since Jack’s closed suddenly in July 2009, victim to a down economy and employee embezzlement scandal. The new owners, Davlyn Investments, purchased the building recently via an online auction. Though they have thus far been mum on details about the remodel, the La Jolla Village Merchants Association has said plans call for a bazaar-
style development with high-end retailers and specialty stores. Renovations are expected to begin next month, with a target opening in early 2014. One confirmed tenant is Lissilaa Boutique, which will relocate to the space from its current location at 1250 Prospect St., near George’s at the Cove. Longtime boutique owner Jalila Lissilaa told the La Jolla Light she helped the new owner (one of her clients) design the space,
which she said will feature a Turkish bath-style spa on the lower level, a showpiece clock and central piano for public entertainment. Lissilaa said the owner is sparing no expense, using the finest glass and stone in the construction of what she promised will be the “crème de la crème” of La Jolla retail. “He refused to build it cheap,” she said. “We’re going to do something really fabulous for the economy. We’re going to make it like Saint-Tropez, Ibiza — why
not? La Jolla women don’t belong in the malls; they want to stay in La Jolla.” Mike Slattery, with Cassidy Turley La Jolla Property Group, said that if developed correctly, the roughly 30,000-square-foot building (currently home to only Panera Bread bakery) would be a “valuable addition” to the Village. “You have so much square footage that has a potential to generate foot traffic,” he said. “Hopefully it will be successful.” Having seen initial design concepts for the project, Slattery said Davlyn Investments plans to make the storefronts along Wall and Girard level with the street. Now, the public must enter by walking up or down stairs. “A lot of people resist going up and down stairs — unless you have a major draw,” Slattery said. “You’ve got to have some traffic flow into that.” Other grand openings on Girard Avenue n Sur La Table, Inc., a cutting-edge culinary shop, has signed a 10-year, $2,079,974 lease for 6,720
square feet of retail space at 7643 Girard Ave. Slattery of Cassidy Turley said, “The location on Girard Avenue is in the heart of the Village of La Jolla’s upscale shopping district and will be a popular spot for residents and tourists who enjoy creating fine food.” The store will also offer the renowned Sur La Table Cooking Class Program, one of the largest vocational cooking programs in the country. n Opening next door to Sur La Table is Phenix Salon Suites, which signed a 10year, $1,881,600 lease for 6,400 square feet of retail space at 7655 Girard Ave., Suite C. The company, which has 35 locations across the country, offers private salon suites for independent hair stylists, masseurs and aestheticians, said Slattery, who handled the lease for Cassidy Turley. Located in a portion of the now defunct I. Magnin & Co. department store building, Phenix Salon Suites is scheduled to open in early September.

Spencer & Company Interiors downsized its showroom at 1010 Torrey Pines Road by half last month, freeing up an additional rental space near the intersection of Torrey Pines Road and Girard Avenue. PAT SHERMAN the San Diego Daily Transcript. n The La Jolla Brewing Company is set to open this summer at 7536 Fay Ave., replacing the La Jolla Brew House. In addition to showcasing San Diego beers, LJBC will brew a few of their own. Starting with a core of an India Pale Ale (IPA), a brown ale, a stout and a pale ale, head brewer Brett Stampf said he hopes to build from
there, adding two or three unique creations, all brewed on site. Stampf has two decades of brewing experience in several states, most notably Dogfish Head brewing company in Delaware, as well as Green Flash Brewing in San Diego and Stone Brewing Co. in Escondido. Stampf said in developing beers for LJBC, he would pull influences from the
places he has worked, and would be available to answer questions from guests whenever possible. Having the brewers, bartenders and owners available to guests is part of their hope to become a neighborhood establishment. They also plan to make the rear dining room available for beer events, for use by brewers that don’t have tasting rooms of their own, and parties and private events. Joking that Stampf is not a beer snob, but a beer enthusiast, co-owner Phil Aitken said one goal is to raise customers’ beer IQs. To do so, they plan to hire other beer enthusiasts to work there. “We’re going to make sure the staff gets a ‘Beer 101’ and knows about beer in general, but specifically ours,” Stampf said. “Hopefully we’ll hire beer geeks.” Another goal in designing the place is “to make good beer and have it be a place we would want to go.” That, Aitken said, is what will give LJBC staying power. Design space shift Spencer & Company Interiors downsized its
showroom at 1010 Torrey Pines Road by half, freeing up an additional rental space in that block, where California Closets is set to open July 1. Spender & Company Interiors’ owner-ASID designer Renee Alison said she didn’t require as much floor space to display furnishings, because many clients place orders based on what works for their living space, and not on display furnishings. The business has been in the Village more than three years, and features high-end furniture and custom upholstery work. Still silent The space at the corner of Girard Avenue and Torrey Pines Road formerly occupied by Beyond Tech speaker and electronics store remains vacant. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Office posted an “eviction restoration notice” on the door in October 2012.

Car whispering at 1st Avenue European By Marti Gacioch It can take decades of high-end car repair and servicing experience to become a discriminating technician capable of caring for luxury, exotic and rare automobiles. With the recent opening of 1st Avenue European, that quality level of car care is now available in downtown San Diego Michael Floyd and James Milar, co-owners of 1st Avenue European, have spent their lifetimes devoted to automobile care. Floyd said he began fixing cars long before he could legally drive one. At age 11, his Riverside neighbor taught him how to service a Chevrolet Impala. Floyd quickly found a career that eventually grew into his Palm Spring’s Mercedes service and repair shop, which he operated for more than 30 years. Automobiles also held an early fascination for Milar, who bought San Diego’s Eli’s Care Repair 30 years ago. There he focused his expertise on restoration and servicing Rolls Royce, Bentleys and a host of other exotic vehicles. As a renowned restoration and repair expert, Milar services high-end cars from across the United States, Mexico and Central America. According to Floyd, many
Class vehicles to one-of-a-kind Rolls Royces, including a 1927 Rolls Royce valued at $1.5 million and a 1970 Mercedes Benz 600 Pullman limousine. “Everything on the Pullman is delicate and extremely expensive, and you really have to know what you’re doing,” Floyd said. “There aren’t many people who can work on them because there are a lot of idiosyncrasies that you need to understand or you’ll get yourself into trouble. “We take care of the car collections of some very affluent people,” Floyd said. “I love people; I love cars; I’ve done it forever, and we’re less expensive than the dealers and pride ourselves on service and taking care of our clients.” The partners met each other five years ago and discussed going into business together. Their dream became reality when they opened their new 10,000 square foot shop downtown in February. — 1st Avenue European, 2210 1st Ave. San Diego. (619) 232-3404.

Mayor declares May 28 ‘End of Poop Day’ in La Jolla Our View
T
hank you Mayor Bob Filner for tackling the nauseating problem that has been plaguing residents, visitors, pedestrians, runners, diners and businesses in La Jolla for almost two years — the horrid stench along the beautiful Cove coastline caused by the bird and marine mammal excrement aggregating on the cliffs. Burrowing through the maze of department reports, regulations, commission prohibitions and politics, you initiated a cleanup, which, if we all had the day off on Tuesday, we’d be standing shoulder to shoulder along the Cove to applaud. Bravo! Just let us know what you need to keep the ball rolling on an effective, ongoing maintenance plan. Thank you’s are also in order to the La Jollans working behind the scenes with the mayor to bring about the cleanup: George Hauer, with his petition to draw attention to the issue (more than 1,500 signatures strong); point man Mark Evans; Phil Coller, president of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association; Mark Dibella of La Valencia Hotel; and District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner. The Light has been reporting on the Cove stench, which eventually made international headlines, for almost two years. Tuesday, May 28, 2013 became the red-letter day of victory. Hurray! Let the good times roll again and the Cove be restored to the pristine sanctuary it has always been to those lucky enough to experience its magnificence.

The mayor issued an Emergency Finding under the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 in order to get the work started. The accumulation of bird waste is a public health hazard that threatens public health, safety and welfare, the mayor’s office said.

I love all of the natural life that’s here, but (the stench) is very unfortunate for the people who live here, have businesses here, and who come from all around the world. If officials are doing it so it’s not going to push the wildlife away, but make a better environment for all, I’m all for it, but sometimes humans come in and do the wrong thing. Stan Silbert
The Cove kind of reminds me of a smelly zoo, but if you come up to (George’s) you can’t really smell it (and) I don’t think the smell outweighs seeing the seals and sea lions and enjoying them. Nate Leavitt
It would be far more useful, if not practical, to simply remove feces in the summer when there aren’t as many seals on the beach than to disturb this very beautiful ecological area in a state marine reserve. The average La Jollan offends very easily and asks for too much compensation as a result of that. Andrea Hahn
As long as it’s not affecting the water, I don’t have an issue with it. But it’s kind of the décor with changing colors on the rock. They are going to be manicuring it by taking that off. I’m used to how it looks now. Dr. Malik Muhammad
The mayor is doing a wonderful job by tackling this problem. We went to Brockton Villa (across from the Cove). My wife and I couldn’t stand the smell, so we chose to come here (Goldfish Point Café) today, upwind of the smell.” Bolgen Vargas Visiting from Rochester, N.Y.

Peruvians also face guano stench problem I’ve just returned from a lovely trip to Peru. In visiting Ballestas Islands, a coastal National Reserve for birds, fish, penguins and sea lions, I learned how they deal with the “guano” problem. Approximately every three years, a group of volunteers “clean” the hillside and then use the treated guano for fertilizer. Here is the contact information for the National Service of State Protected Natural Areas (SERNANP). Perhaps they could give a little advice to La Jolla on how to handle our problem.

Bicyclists need road rules clarified Living here in La Jolla and as a Northern European, I bike around in the Village and areas, often with my son on the bike. I have experienced many times that drivers aren’t alert to bicyclists and I have wondered many times what the exact rules are for biking in beach vs. commercial vs. residential areas. The Village offers all three categories and I heard recently from another parent at the Rec Center that there are different rules for each of them; i.e. whether we should bike on the pedestrian street or the road, or if we are even
Correction In the May 23 issue, it was left out of the Business Spotlight story on the Madison Gallery that the “Butterflies & Rebirth” reception with artist Hunt Slonem, 6-9 p.m. June 8, is a private VIP show for collectors only by RSVP at (858) 459-0836. The exhibition is open to the public from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., June 5-July 8, at the gallery, 1020 Prospect St. Suite 130, La Jolla.
allowed to be on any of them. That’s why I am turning to La Jolla Light to hear if you could dedicate this as a article theme at some point. I assume that not only bicyclists would appreciate some clarification of rules, but also local drivers. As a parent who both drives and bikes on the streets of the Village it could be to share with others some of the streets that are really dangerous for bicyclists and where there is a need for better signaling. Maybe also include some clarification from the local police on what exactly is applied and where. Thank you for paying attention to this. I hope you will find space for it in your wonderful local newspaper. Patricia Brusgaard La Jolla
If seals leave Children’s Pool, they’ll head to the Cove The city should remove the seals from the Children’s Pool in La Jolla because that beach was expressly built for the purpose of having a semi-protected environment where children can learn ocean swimming from an early age and it is man made. If the city decides the seals should have the beach, it should go all the way and remove the man-made breakwater. If the seals then decide to invade the Cove, they need to duke it out because the Cove is a natural formation, one of the best places for an ocean swim. The Cove is like a giant saltwater swimming pool and has a nearby underwater canyon that is
300 feet deep that keeps the water circulating and fresh. That’s why I would dearly miss being able to swim there! It is quite a challenge to live in harmony with nature; it’s too long and winding a road back … On a different subject, when I came to La Jolla in the late 1970s, I used to go to a nightclub called, “The Meeting Place,” located where The Comedy Store is now. I loved the place! It had a large round wooden dance floor with backlit stained glass circle (probably plastic) of equal size above it. They had live music, I think. I mostly remember a very peasant, mellow atmosphere and I was sorry to see it go and get replaced. It was the best nightclub and place to dance and meet people I ever found in La Jolla. Norma J. Thomas La Jolla

Autumn Cove cleansing better for baby birds
I am very concerned about power washing the rocks at the Cove. Spring nesting season is in full swing. Gulls and cormorants already have chicks in their nests. It would make a lot more sense (and be far more humane) to conduct a rock cleaning in the late summer, fall or winter when baby birds have fledged and are no longer in the nest. Hopefully, the city can correct this oversight before it is too late for baby birds. As a general rule, any tree or shrub trimming or removal should be done in late summer, fall and winter, and never during the spring nesting season. It would be wonderful if the city could take a leadership role educating the public about
safe and humane spring landscape maintenance. Karen Straus Via lajollalight.com

OBITUARIES
Bruce Gordon Byerly 1956 – 2013
Bruce Byerly passed away peacefully the night of Monday, May 13, 2013, with his family by his side. Bruce was born in Owosso, Michigan, on October 4, 1956. His schooling was in California at La Jolla Country Day and La Jolla High School where he excelled in track and field. He graduated from La Jolla High in 1975. Bruce attended Fort Lewis College in Colorado and NAU, in Flagstaff, Arizona. After college, Bruce began a sailing voyage on The Witchcraft, a 38 foot sail boat with one other crew member and their captain. They reached Rarotonga in the mid-Pacific when the captain became very ill and the other crewman “jumped ship”. Bruce navigated the
ship alone to Penrhyn Island and eventually to Kauai, Hawaii, where he quickly made a living singing and cooking until his family came to visit. He and his brother, Tom, continued the cooking and singing until they sailed the boat back to California. After that adventure in seamanship he offed to Europe to model in Milan, Italy; St. Moritz, France; Barcelona, Spain; and Hamburg, Germany. After his modeling in Europe he moved to Sun Valley, Idaho, where he started a successful marble, tile and stone business. Upon selling his business he realized his dream and bought a 48’ McKinna. He brought the boat from Seattle to San Diego and eventually to La Paz, Mexico, where he enjoyed the great life on the sea he loved. This included visits from his legion of friends whom he adored. Bruce was a joy to know and a pied piper who gathered a jolly crowd wherever he went. He carried his harmonica with him easily picking up a song with any band. Bruce is survived by his father and mother; siblings, Jim, Tom and Amy; nephews, Evan, Jake, Stewart and Nickolas; niece, Bridget; and stepsons, Matthew and James Hansen.
My Candle burns at both ends It will not last the night But ah my foes And oh my friends It gives a lovely light.

Mary Ann Childers Kinkead 1941 – 2013
Mary Ann Kinkead passed away peacefully on May 15, 2013, in La Jolla, CA, after recent significant illnesses. Mary Ann and Jordan retired and moved to La Jolla in 2005. Raised in Spokane, Washington, by her parents,
Mary and John Childers, Mary Ann was introduced to ballet at the age of six and her love for dance was immediate. She entered Mills College in 1959, received her BA and MA in Dance and joined the Mills Dance faculty in 1966. She taught dance at Mills for the next 39 years. During that time she was Chair of the Dance Department, Dean of the Fine Arts Division, Provost and Dean of the Faculty, and acting president. Mary Ann had an exceptional spirit, a wonderful sense of humor, and boundless energy. Those who knew her cherished her generous moral support and forthright candor. She loved to teach and that love only increased over the years. She stood out for her devotion to her fellow faculty and her students and she was twice named the Mary Metz Professor for outstanding teaching. She published two textbooks on Labanotation, the technique that diagrams the choreography of dancers’ motions. Her professional standing was acknowledged by the award of the Isadora Duncan “Izzie” for service to the San Francisco Bay Area dance community. After retiring, Mary Ann served for ten years on the board of the Paul Taylor Dance
Company, where she found a new arena in which to promote her love of dance. She is remembered for her steadfast dedication to the highest standards in education and art. Mary Ann and her loving husband, Jordan (Pooh), were married in 1963 and would have celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary in August of this year. She dearly loved her two sons, John and Cary and his wife, Tina; and her three grandchildren, Ames (8), Jordan (7), and Hayes (5). It was always clear that she valued her family’s wellbeing far above her own. A Celebration of her Life will be held at Mills College in Lisser Hall on Friday, May 31, 2013, at 1:30 PM. Interment will be Thursday, May 30, 2013, at 11:00 AM. at Alta Mesa Funeral Home & Memorial Park, 695 Arastradero Road, Palo Alto, CA 94306. Donations in her memory may be made to the Paul Taylor New Works Fund, 551 Grand St., New York, NY 10002, and to The Mary Ann Childers Kinkead Scholarship for Dance at Mills College.

City finally begins cleaning bird waste off La Jolla Cove cliffs COVE STENCH UPDATE
By Pat Sherman San Diego Mayor Bob Filner has delivered on his promise to cleanse years of caked-on bird excrement from the rocks above La Jolla Cove — the source of a noxious odor that has permeated the Village for wellover a year, driving business from the Village, many merchants say. On Tuesday morning, May 28 (less than 24 hours past his own Memorial Day deadline), Filner stood above La Jolla Cove with District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner and representatives from Blue Eagle, the company contracted to clean the cliffs, and declared it an “End of Poop Day.” Blue Eagle was hired to apply a product containing bioactive agents commonly found in nature, including a non-pathogenic bacteria that will “digest” the bird guano and other noxious organisms. The process of digesting the bacteria will eliminate the odors in the area in a short amount of time, Filner said. Noting multiple state and federal laws that had to dealt with to assure the protection of birds, marine mammals, and the ocean while the work is being completed, Filner said there was also “economic and physical health to protect.” Lightner said everything from
On Tuesday morning, May 28, San Diego Mayor Bob Filner (far right) stands above La Jolla Cove with District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner and representatives from Blue Eagle, the company contracted to clean the cliffs. Photos by Ashley Mackin and Pat Sherman vacuuming the bird waste to using falconers to scare the cormorants and pelicans away was considered during the past year. “The tangle of state and federal regulations created a seemingly unsolvable knot of bureaucratic red tape — but we never gave up,” Lightner said. “We explored every avenue to find a solution that was sensitive to the environment, while understanding the urgency of the issue. … What we have today is the best solution available.” Following the press conference, Blue Eagle employees began testing their product on a portion of the cliffs north of the Cove, known as “The Clam.” Based on their findings, workers will return June 10 and apply the product to the bluffs above La Jolla Cove. From there, the entire job should take about 10 days. To cut through bureaucratic red
tape — specifically an “incidental harassment permit” normally required by NOAA under the Marine Mammal Protection Act — the mayor issued an “emergency finding” stating that the accumulation of bird waste had become a hazard threatening public health, safety and welfare. Blue Eagle was one of three companies bidding for the work. The contract came in at just under $50,000 for the initial treatment. Marine biologist Keith Merkel, a consultant the city hired to monitor the work, said the treatment, if successful, will need to be repeated in the future. “My expectation is it would probably be two to three times a year to get to the point where it’s at a maintainable level,” Merkel said. The mayor said he expects the cleanup activity should cost about $100,000 annually.
“The money is here to do this — and we have to,” Filner said. “It’s a health and safety (issue).” Speaking with the La Jolla Light, Mark Dibella, managing director of the nearby La Valencia Hotel said he attended a meeting at the mayor’s office a month ago, at which the mayor promised such as solution. “I’m delighted to know that our meeting and his commitments are coming to fruition and that we have a light at the end of the tunnel,” Dibella said, noting that the hotel has lost upwards of a dozen weddings due to concerns over the smell. “La Jolla is the jewel of the coastline. It should be polished like a jewel, and this is part of the polishing.” George Hauer, owner of George’s at the Cove restaurant, started an online petition last year to pressure the city to take action on the stench.
Speaking with the Light on Tuesday, Hauer congratulated the mayor for expediting the process, though said he hopes it will be a long-term solution, as opposed to a quick political fix. “What we will really appreciate is the follow-up to see whether this one cleaning does the job and whether or not it solves the problem on a permanent basis,” Hauer said. “This is a good first step.” Dibella said he hopes the mayor will remove the fence above the bluffs, which the city added years ago due to safety concerns. Many people believe allowing people to walk onto the bluffs served as a deterrent to cormorants, pelicans and sea lions taking hold there. During the press conference, Filner said he would explore the possibility of removing the fence after the city determines whether the Blue Eagle product is effective, and has conversations with the community about ongoing safety concerns. “Let’s just deal with the stench issue now,” Filner said. “The bigger issue, we’ll have time to discuss.” Merkel said the active organism in Blue Eagle’s product will dry out and die once it has consumed the bird waste. Though he expects little to no residue will be left, the city may revisit its earlier plan to use an industrial vacuum on the bluffs, if necessary. “Vacuuming is still a backup solution,” Merkel said. A few areas of the cliffs where cormorants breed will be left untouched until their newborns have fledged, then cleaned at a later date per Blue Eagle’s contract with the city, Merkel said.

FROM BRIEFS, A3 n WindanSea cottage demolition heads to Planning Commission On June 13, the City of San Diego’s Planning Commission is scheduled to hear an appeal of the city’s environmental determination allowing a property owner to demolish two potentially historic cottages on Playa del Sur in WindanSea.

The La Jolla Historical Society argued that the cottages are historic, while the city’s Development Services Department said there have been too many changes to the cottages over the years, which constitute a “loss of integrity” that diminished their historic value. DPR member Angeles Liera said the process of reviewing potentially historic properties at the city is flawed. Supporting the LJCPA’s appeal was important to assure a change in the process, she said. “It’s happening on other projects and I’m afraid that it can continue to snowball,” Liera said.

Las Patronas president Pat Marsch knows the value of helping hands Pat Marsch was born in Detroit and is a graduate of the University of Michigan with degrees in English, education, and radio and television. Shortly after graduation, she moved to the mountains of Colorado to ski for one season. Fourteen ski seasons later, she continued west from her adopted hometown of Breckenridge (where she taught English, owned a cookware Pat Marsch store, met her Studio M / Michael Spengler husband Nick and had two sons) and landed in San Diego. She said living in San Diego has provided her with many opportunities to give back. Through the years, she’s held volunteer leadership positions with the Children’s Hospital Auxiliary, Rancho Santa Fe Community Center, Boy Scouts of America, the Salvation Army, and every school her sons attended, which culminated in service as Parent Association President, Board of Trustees Advancement Committee Chair, Financial Aid Chair, and Centennial Campaign Co-Chair for The Bishop’s School. “This is my seventh year as a member of Las Patronas and I am honored to be the current president of this great organization,” she said.

What brought you to La Jolla? We were living in Rancho Santa Fe when our son, Mike, began attending Bishop’s. During that period of time, we just kept moving south along the coast to shorten his commute. Finally, in 2005, we moved to La Jolla — a short six weeks before our youngest son graduated from Bishop’s. And, although our sons never got the full benefit of the five-minute drive to school, we all have loved living by the water in this wonderful seaside Village. What would you improve in town? In many ways, La Jolla is the perfect place to live. Nick and I enjoy strolling down the hill and into town for a sunset dinner at one of our favorite Prospect Street restaurants. But if I could make a few improvements by snapping my fingers, I would find a way to mute the sirens of the emergency vehicles that travel Torrey Pines

Surf club marks 50 years with special events By Pat Sherman or nearly five decades, the legendary WindanSea Surf Club (WSC) has traveled the world in search of the perfect wave, nabbed countless trophies and accolades in their sport and helped enrich their community through service projects, including annual Day at the Beach events in which the club invites homeless and disabled children to surf, frolic and barbeque by the sea. The club also helps keep people safe and on course during the annual La Jolla Rough Water Swim, and participates in various community beautification projects. “It’s like we’re one big family,” said Debbie Beacham (nee Melville), a 1982 women’s world champion surfer who joined the WSC in the late ’60s. “It’s beyond competition and community service. WindanSea is our playground, and we all enjoy it together, and we take care

Let Inga Tell You
So done with medical science
W
La Jolla Cultural Partners
hen I read recently that new studies suggest that there could be a connection between calcium supplements and heart disease, I officially gave up on medical science. Sorry, science, it’s just over between us. I mean, is there a more sacred cow in women’s health care than supplemental calcium? A lot of other supplements have been hyped over the years — Tryptophan, Sam-e, Echinacea, Chondroitin — but the one indisputable, irrefutable, absolutely sacrosanct piece of advice for women was to take calcium. Hormone replacement, cholesterol limits in egg yolks and shrimp, butter vs. margarine, all went in and out of style. But not calcium. It was always the first question out of any primary care doctor’s mouth: Are you taking calcium? Really important for bone health unless you want to end up looking like a mobile end table in your 60s. It’s not even that supplemental calcium might not be helping you. It can be causing you harm. I just can’t help having a giant snit about this. If that’s true, what took medical research so long to figure it
out? I’ve been taking supplemental calcium for at least 30 years. Aside from a big fat refund, I also want an extended warranty on my heart from you guys. Turns out, according to the new research, supplemental calcium can sock it to your heart in several possible ways. One of them is not taking along with it enough magnesium and Vitamin D (the current darling of over-the-counter supplements — I’m predicting it will be found to cause dementia). Another is that the body can really only handle a certain amount of calcium at once and the rest can end up in your arteries causing atheroschlerosis and increasing the risk of heart disease. Nobody, of course, is saying that you don’t need calcium for your bones. But this week’s prevailing medical wisdom is that to avoid getting too much calcium in your system, you’re only supposed to get it from your diet, preferably in the form of leafy greens and dairy. So, ladies, flush those calcium supplements before they cause you to keel over from calcium excess in the middle of eating a blueberry yogurt. (Of course, we can’t all flush them at once
or there’s going to be a LOT of fish with heart disease.) If the calcium news weren’t bad enough, The New York Times reported on May 14 ANOTHER new study that showed that sharply limiting sodium intake had no health benefits and, like calcium, could actually increase the risk of heart disease. I am ordering an anchovy pizza RIGHT NOW. For years before that, studies incontrovertibly showed that doing crossword puzzles every day made the aging brain stay agile. Now The Wall Street Journal reports that all crossword puzzles do for your brain is make you better at crossword puzzles. Personally, I think the National Institutes of Health just enjoy toying with us. I’ve become seriously suspicious. For example, I remember reading all those studies showing that hormone replacement therapy was good. If those studies were all flawed, how do we know the new ones about calcium and sodium and heart disease aren’t too? Before I completely change my life again, they’re
going to have to convince me. And let me just say, I’m going to be a really hard sell at this point. No, this volte face on calcium is a level of perfidy that cannot be countenanced. You’ve crossed the line this time, microbiology nerds. I’m done with you changing the rules! I’ve concluded that my husband, Olof, is right: Medical science doesn’t really have a clue. The good news, says Olof, is that you can pick what you want to die from. Neither of us are willing to die from liver since we don’t like liver. But I’m willing to die from chocolate. He’s willing to die from single malt Scotch. Fortunately for me, there are plenty of opportunities with chocolate to get enough calcium from one’s diet. As a first step, I’m going to drastically up my intake of Ben and Jerry’s Fudge Brownie ice cream.

Forever Fondue: Dipping was never so divine By Kelley Carlson orever Fondue brings together a blend of people — from couples on dates to families — who are there for a collective cause: to indulge in rich cheeses and chocolates. The restaurant has been a La Jolla fixture since 2000 and in its location on Prospect Street since 2005. Its modern dining room (in brick red and earthy, neutral tones) is primarily filled with booths where guests gather around steaming fondue pots in the center of the tables. Some patrons prefer to sit at the bar, where a TV broadcasting sports is the center of activity. Meanwhile, servers weave their way around the room in time to the beat of the latest Top 40 tunes. “We’re pretty fun and relaxed,” assistant Tina Roberts said. And the dining experience can be interactive. A server brings a pot to the table and prepares cheese fondue from scratch in front of the customers, until it achieves a smooth finish. Most of the fondues have a beer base, some use wine, and all of them come with apple slices, vegetable pieces and bread chunks. The restaurant’s most popular cheese fondue is the Cheddar-Smoked Gouda with bacon, onions and garlic. A more traditional choice is the Camembert and Swiss with Caramelized Onions, which incorporates sharp Gruyere, white wine, garlic, ground nutmeg, a splash of kirschwasser (cherry

There are four types of salads and a half-dozen a la carte entrees, composed of vegetables, chicken, steak or seafood. The meats are cooked at the table, as pieces are held in boiling broth for several minutes and then served with a variety of sauces on the side. Of course, there’s also dessert, and in this case, it’s in the form of chocolate fondue. Patrons may order something as simple as milk, white or dark chocolate, or select more complex concoctions such as the Raspberry and Caramel Noir blended with dark chocolate, or The Dirty Angel, which

For an “all-inclusive” meal, Roberts recommends ordering The Original Fondue Foursome, which offers bigger portions than
other options. After dining on the first two courses of salad and cheese fondue, patrons are presented with slices of tenderloin filet, teriyaki sirloin, tarragon chicken breast, citrus and garlic shrimp and bay scallops for their entree. The finale features a choice of milk, white or dark chocolate fondue, served with pieces of fruit, portions of pound cake, mini squares of rice crispy treats and a slice of creamy cheesecake.

WSC’s Tim Bessell releases second line of Warhol surfboards By Pat Sherman Longtime WindanSea Surf Club (WSC) member and board shaper Tim Bessell has released his second line of surfboards inspired by the work of the late American pop artist, Andy Warhol. Last year Bessell was commissioned by the Andy Warhol Foundation to create an initial series of boards, each bearing the ■ bessellsurf.com image of one of Warhol’s ■ warholsurf.com works, such as “The Last Supper” and “Guns.” That line is completely sold out, and by its May 23 release the new line of Warholinspired boards was almost halfway sold out via presale orders, Bessell said. The new boards feature Warhol’s “Flowers,” “Dollar Sign,” “Self-Portrait,” “Elvis” and “Campbell’s Soup Can.” A sixth board, inspired by Warhold’s 1962 Silkscreen painting, “Marilyn Diptych,” is awaiting final design approval by the Marilyn Monroe Foundation. The boards sell for just under $7,000. Bessell said the design approval process
On the Web
Shaper Tim Bessell says the Warhol foundation rejected four or five of his preliminary surfboard-art designs. COURTESY was more complicated this time around. In addition to the Andy Warhol Foundation, he had to get approval from the Presley and Monroe foundations, and the Campbell’s Soup Company (all three of which required sub-licensing agreements). For each hand-shaped, Warhol board

design, Bessell submitted three or four preliminary concepts to Campbell’s and the
other foundations. “The Warhol foundation was pretty stringent,” said Bessell, noting that they rejected four or five of his preliminary designs. “It’s good; it just makes us better to adhere to their high standards,” he said. Bessell got involved with WSC in the early ’80s, after entering the club’s Menehune youth surfing contest at age 13. A current WSC board member, Bessell created a 10-foot “gun” board that will be auctioned off during the California Surf Museum’s gala on June 8 (which coincides with the launch of WSC’s 50th anniversary exhibition there). Bessell still competes in WSC competitions throughout the state, and took second place at a coalition contest at Tourmaline Surf Park several years ago. “It’s a double-edged sword; everyone’s always angry that we win all the time,” he said, “but we have the best surfers.”

These are the people who give their time outside of the spotlight, without pay, out of the goodness of their hearts. My fellow Las Patronas members inspire me with their compassion and commitment.

If you hosted a dinner party for eight, who would you invite? I think my English heritage and love of English literature are showing with several of the names on my guest list. I would invite Jane Austen, William Shakespeare, Julia Child, Richard Feynman, J.K. Rowling, Warren Buffett, Leonardo da Vinci, and The Boss (Bruce Springsteen), of course. What are your five favorite movies? My all-time favorite movies are “West Side Story,” “Roman Holiday,” “Top Gun,” “To Kill a Mockingbird” and “Chocolat.” What is it that you dislike most? Dishonesty and lack of compassion. What is your mostprized possession? Time … to spend with family and friends. What do you do for fun? I launch my yellow kayak,
which my sons nicknamed the Mother Ship because I carry all the provisions, and we paddle up the La Jolla shoreline. There’s nothing more entertaining than seeing a group of young sea lions and dolphins frolicking in the waters north of Scripps Pier. What is your philosophy of life? Do unto others as you would have others do unto you. As Mark Twain said, “Let us live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.” What would be your dream vacation? Ever since my college days of working summer jobs at the Detroit Zoo, I have dreamed of visiting Africa. Maybe this dream resulted from the summers I spent cooking hot dogs outside of the Great Ape exhibit or selling tickets for the African Elephant Encounter. Regardless, I hope to see all these amazing species in their natural habitat someday.

‘Chagall’ brings dance, music, art, theater to Playhouse By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Mark Chagall, a Russian-born fishmonger’s son who became one of the best-known artists of the 20th century, had a 97-year-long life that was as colorful as his paintings. Now, thanks to choreographer John Malashock and composer/lyricist Yale Strom, he is the subject of a dance musical coming to the Shank Theater at La Jolla Playhouse June 6-9. The latest incarnation of a four-year project first introduced at the Lipinsky Family Jewish Arts Festival in 2010, “Chagall” now has a third collaborator: writer/director Tom Dugdale, a recipient of the Princess Grace Award who is currently artist-in-residence at the Playhouse. Dugdale provided the extra dimension, moving this new workshop version ever closer toward what Strom and Malashock hope they are heading for — a full production that is part musical theater, part Cirque du Soleil. The idea for a musical based on Chagall’s life first came to Strom in 2009. Strom, a musician/ethnographer whose band, Hot P’Stromi, plays a mix of klezmer, Roma (gypsy) and world beat music, had used Chagall’s famous painting, “The Green Violinist,” as the cover for his 2002 “The Book of Klezmer: The history, the music, the folklore,” and was particularly interested in the world of Chagall’s childhood. He had something in mind that was different from conventional musicals, and talked to Malashock about creating a piece that combined music, theater, and dance. Malashock, whose dance company celebrated its 25th anniversary this year,

And now there are two dancers portraying the artist: long-time Malashock associate Michael Mizerany as Old Chagall, and guest dancer, Danny Ryan, as Young Chagall. “Up until now, we’ve only shown scenes from the show,” Strom said. “This is the first time audiences will have a chance to see the whole thing. We’ve definitely expanded. Besides Tom Dugdale, who is wonderful to work with, we now have six musicians, two singers, 10 dancers, and Nuvi Mehta, a violinist who also happens to act.” In fact, Mehta (yes, he’s related to Zubin!) is a violinist/conductor who gives preconcert talks for San Diego Symphony. One of the dancers, Kiona Daelin, also happens to be an aerialist. “There are so many floating characters in Chagall’s work, we wanted to have some elements above-ground, to defy gravity, the way he did in his paintings,” Malashock said. “We’ve got a whole team now, with costume, sound, and light designers, and we’ve got a show that really tells a story. Even though it’s still a workshop, it’s really, really exciting!”

Let’s Review Diana Saenger
Outstanding cast takes the heat in ‘Other Desert Cities’
P
laywright Jon Robin Baitz explores the power of love and how it sends one family spinning as they deal with conflicting politics and how to handle a family tragedy, in “Other Desert Cities.” The moment patrons take their seats for the show in The Old Globe Theatre, there’s buzz about the set. Scenic Designer Sean Fanning’s very posh living room in the Palm Springs home of Lyman (Robert Foxworth) and Polly Wyeth (Kandis Chapell) is stunning. The art décor furniture and working fireplace are fantastic, but it’s the scene of the sky and mountain behind a huge glass doors that open to a beautiful pool that steal the focal point throughout the play. It’s Christmas at the Wyeth home and everyone is in a festive mood. Trip (Andy Bean) and his sister Brooke (Dana Green) will join their parents and Aunt Silda (Robin Pearson Rose) for the holidays. The stern and stalwart Polly has set a tight schedule for Christmas Eve, but shortly after Dana and Trip arrive, there’s trouble. Dana reveals she’s written a soon-to-bepublished memoir about the family and their tragedy over the loss of her other brother, who committed suicide. At the news, the room becomes a helium balloon that has just lost its gas. Dana’s parents are perplexed and refuse to read the book. Trip is finally coerced into reading it, but is angry with his sister and tries to get her to understand what this will do to their parents if it’s published. There’s not a moment of Baitz’s dialogue that doesn’t command attention. One of Dana’s lines skillfully explains the title of this play. This excellent cast becomes every one of these characters. Chapell creates Polly as a solid ice cube throughout most of the play and never wavers in her domineering demands. It’s a tour-de-force performance, especially when she finally starts to melt. Foxworth is equally brilliant in portraying Lyman as just the opposite. He says little and hides behind his newspaper, but inside he’s slowly approaching the intensity of a steam room boiler. Bean adds the right amount of a young man’s “come what may” attitude until he knows he has to tell his sister what she refuses to acknowledge. In any play with somber elements, a little comedy is welcomed and Rose delivers this often in her amusing take on Aunt Silda. Green also gives a commanding performance as Dana, a young woman who has been through the mills with emotional breakdowns and bad feelings about her parents. Richard Seer’s direction is superb and magical. He turns a traditional time of joy for most families into a big thaw and time of discovery that most might never want to experience, but many already have.

Arthur and Molli Wagner Photos by Maurice Hewitt
UCSD honors theater visionary Arthur Wagner By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt f science and engineering are the head of our society, then the arts are the heart and soul,” Arthur Wagner, founder of UC San Diego’s Department of Theater and Dance, once said. On May 18, he was honored at a special event at the Forum Theater, a stone’s throw from the Wagner Theater and the Arthur and Molli Wagner Dance Building. The event, attended by more than 250 admirers, was a celebration of Wagner’s 90th birthday and the department’s 40th anniversary. Wagner, trained as an actor, received a Ph.D. in drama from Stanford, started actor training programs at Tulane and Temple Universities, and in 1972 became the first chair of the department at UCSD, which is now considered one of the top graduate theater training programs in the country. Among the many theater pros who jump-started their careers there are Tony Award-winning actor Jefferson Mays (“I Am My Own Wife”), now on his way back to Broadway with “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder.” Since his retirement in 1991, Wagner has continued to be a devoted supporter of the department, and a member of the Playhouse Board of Trustees. He and his wife, Molli, have funded The Arthur and Molli Wagner Chair in Acting and The Molli and Arthur Wagner Dance Building, along with a $500,000 graduate fellowship in acting. Last year, they donated $2.2 million to endow the department’s Student

honor of Arthur Wagner. In December, it was announced that Wagner and his wife, Molli, donated a lead gift of $2.2 million to endow department's Student Production Fund to help continue the valuable training experience students need, including funding actual productions and associated program expenses.

who are likely to make a mark after they graduate. Previous festival plays have gone on to be produced in New York City, Boston, San Francisco and other cities. This year, those on hand to scout new talent included Les Waters, a former UCSD theater faculty member and artistic director of the Actors Theatre of Louisville. “Our mission has always been professional training at the graduate level, which is what the MFA programs are
about,” Wagner said. “Our goal is to produce successful theater artists including playwrights, directors, scenic designers, dramaturges and others. The festival allows us to invite theater professionals to spend a weekend seeing their work.”

The exhibit includes photos, trophies, surfboards, vintage WSC clothing and memorabilia such as a wooden key to the City of Honolulu the club received during a trip to Hawaii just months after its inception. The exhibition opens June 8 in connection with the museum’s annual gala and fundraiser, during which eight commemorative WSC surfboards with the club’s “Five-O” logo will be auctioned off.

Surf legend Rusty Miller recalls time with WindanSea Surf Club By Pat Sherman a Jolla native and 1965 U.S. surfing champion Rusty Miller may spend his days giving surf lessons to the likes of Elle Macpherson and other Hollywood A-listers, though he never forgets his days as an inaugural member of the WindanSea Surf Club (WSC). Now in his 70s, Miller was among the top surfers invited to compete with WSC when they traveled to Malibu in 1963 for their first competition. Miller surfed and performed in a makeshift WSC band on the beach that day, playing drums. “We just headed up the coast and picked up all the good surfers on the trail,” said Miller, speaking with the La Jolla Light May 18 while at Hansen Surfboards in Encinitas to sign copies of his new photography book, “Turning Point.” “I think we had a couple beers on the way,” Miller confided, with a laugh. “The bus driver must have had his hands full keeping his eyes on the road.” Miller, who once lived on Coast Boulevard

A San Diego State University alumni, he recently helped launch the world’s first Center for Surf Research at SDSU. In 1966, when Miller arrived in Australia aboard a ship as part of the University of the Seven Seas program (today Semester at Sea), about 20 members of the WindanSea Surf Club of Australia were there to welcome the recent surf champ. Miller said he treasures most WSC’s community involvement, including a day at Tourmaline Canyon Surfing Park in which WSC members taught blind children and adults to surf. “I think we really were key in making people realize that surfing wasn’t just a sport … (but) a lifestyle and a culture,” said Miller, who today resides in Byron Bay, Australia. “It’s a belief in natural forces, and I think that’s what makes you very humanitarian.”

Documentary on La Jolla actor Cliff Robertson underway By Pat Sherman Native La Jollan and Academy Award winner Cliff Robertson, who owned an estate home on Dunemere Drive, will get his due in a documentary being developed by public relations professional Stephen Thompson, who met Robertson while working with him on the 2002 horror film, “The 13th Child: Legend of the Jersey Devil” (which Robertson starred in and co-wrote). Robertson, who portrayed a young John F. Kennedy in the 1963 film, “PT 109,” and went on to win an Academy Award for Best Actor in 1968’s “Charly,” most recently appeared as “Uncle Ben” in the “Spider-Man” film trilogy. Robertson died on Long Island on Sept. 10, 2011, at age 88. Though his primary residence was in New York, he purchased the 1922 Spanish colonial Casa de la Paz on Dunemere Drive in 1963, selling it in 2005 for $14.5 million. To help fund the documentary, Thompson kicked off a campaign on the crowd-funding website, indiegogo.com. Directing will be Brian Gillogly, who interviewed Robertson, Sally Field and others for his 2011 documentary, “Accidental Icon: The Real Gidget

Courtesy Photos Story.” Thompson, who served as Robertson’s public relations agent for the last decade of his life, said he is seeking help to fund the project from the “Cliff Robertson community” of friends and fans. He hopes to raise $9,500 to cover development costs. “I want this project to be a gift to Cliff’s family from everyone who knew him, and everyone who
appreciated his work,” Thompson said. “I don’t want to ask anyone to work on the project for free, or ask Cliff’s family for any financial support. The entire project will be funded through donations through our Indiegogo campaign.” Robertson was a fixture in La Jolla, helping plan La Jolla High School class reunions, and lending his support and name to the La Jolla Historical Society.

If you have been wondering ... … about the mysteries of food, cooking and healthy nutrition, here are a few discoveries I have made while sleuthing through the offerings found in kitchens, markets and restaurants. Did you know that taking a whiff of the mighty rosemary plant with its powerful essential oils, has been found to boost memory (particularly for tweaking important dates and appointments)? Shakespeare knew of the herb’s fine properties when Ophelia in “Hamlet” commented: “There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance: pray you, love, remember.” So jot down fresh rosemary on your shopping list. Don’t forget. Did you know that snacking on oranges (Vitamin C powerhouses), or peanut butter (a load of magnesium), and chowing down on brown rice (B6 bombshell), and salmon (a dose of coenzyme Q10) have been found to put the skids on migraines and other pesky headaches? Did you know that eating strawberries, or better yet, brushing your teeth with the mashed beauties will whiten your pearls naturally?
Did you know that selling foie gras has been banned in California since July 2012 thanks to the lobbying of animal rights groups claiming that the act of gavage (force-feeding geese and ducks to swell their livers) represents animal cruelty? So restaurateurs have been giving away the delicacy to patrons to get around the ban. (I would also ban it since the livers from non-organically raised livestock not only contain a mother lode of cholesterol, but are also toxic). No choking matter. Did you know that in France ketchup is considered a blasphemous condiment that threatens the culinary culture by masking natural flavors of traditional French dishes? The French government has banned ketchup in elementary schools. Vive la France! Did you know that the tart and tangy rhubarb (with toxic leaves), belongs to the buckwheat family, botanically making it a veggie not a fruit? Did you know that SPAM, the nerd on the food chain, whose acronym “SPICY HAM” was introduced in 1937 by Hormel Foods Corporation, and has now become
grand marshal in the La Jolla Christmas Parade. “I’m willing to speak to anybody that knew him” for the documentary, said Thompson, who once booked a radio interview for Robertson on the same day as his La Jolla High reunion. “He did not want to be rushed,” Thompson recalled. “He really enjoyed seeing all the people who he had grown up with.” Robertson was also an accom-
au courant in a bevy of dishes by top chefs throughout the land? SPAM does sushi, eggs Benedict, risottos, frittatas, lasagnas, pizzas and fried rice. Over 7 billion cans have sold since it hit the market 76 years ago. Did you know that a small maritime fishing town in Nova Scotia, Canada boasts the world’s largest lobster on record, toppling the scales at 44 pounds? Since it takes 5 to 7 years for a lobster to reach one pound, the typical market size, you do the math on this monster Methuselah of crustaceans. Did you know that the nectarine belongs to the same species as the peach, and is not a crossbreed of a peach and a plum? The glabrous nectarine is the product of a recessive gene, while the fuzzy allele — the peach represents the dominant version. Did you know that cherries contain melatonin that has been found to stabilize the body’s circadian sleep patterns and alleviate jet lag and other sleeping disorders? They’re like nature’s NyQuil. Did you know that you could slowdown the ripening of a banana by simply refrigerating it? Although the peel will brown within hours, the inside will remain firm just like an unripe one. Finally, did you know that Frank Nicholas Meyer, employed by the United States Department of Agriculture to conduct horticultural expeditions in Asia, was allegedly murdered during one such expedition when he was pushed overboard into the Yangtze River? But Meyer achieved immortality through the beautiful citrus he bequeathed to us that bears his name.
plished pilot, who in 2008 presented an Ambassador of Aviation Award created in his honor to fellow actor-aviator John Travolta. Along with the rights to clips from some of the films and television appearances from Robertson’s six-decade career, Thompson is hoping to get an interview with Travolta. The documentary will also highlight Robertson’s humanitarian efforts, including his work organizing food supply flights to Ethiopia to combat famine, and his pivotal role in uncovering the check-forging scandal of former Columbia Pictures President David Begelman, which some believe led to Robertson being “blacklisted” from Hollywood. “He was the real McCoy,” Thompson said. “He was not a Hollywood phony. He was really a terrific, warm guy who stood up for what he believed in.”

In a mixing bowl combine flour, salt and rosemary. Set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter and sugar until well blended. Add the extracts, lemon zest and flour mixture, and blend on low until a dough forms. Shape into a ball, wrap with waxed paper and refrigerate for one hour. On a floured board roll out the dough 1/2 inch thick, and cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters (squares, hearts, circles). Place on parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden along the edges. Let cool. Did you know that you could bake a knock-your-socks-off shortbread cookie by combining savory rosemary with tangy Meyer lemon zest? Here goes. — For more recipes, e-mail Catharine L.

La Jolla Light’s caught on camera community Photo contest
BEST PEOPLE PHOTO WindanSea Surf Club members Mike Burner, Butch Van Artsdalen, Rusty Miller, Bill David and Billy Caster pose after winning the paddle relay team contest during the 1963 West Coast Surfing Championships in Huntington Beach. Ron Church From WindanSea, B15 suitable to address the mayor and city council — a necessary evil, given the city’s plan to boot surfers from all local beaches, leaving them only with Pacific Beach’s then less-than-desirable Tourmaline Surf Park. “Thor created this brand,” Beacham said. “It was the beginning of surf clubs having some kind of a pull.” Beyond Malibu The near sweep at Malibu afforded the club enough credibility to enter (and win) other contests in Huntington Beach, Makaha, Hawaii and elsewhere — and to be ranked among the best surfers on the planet. “They went on to form other affiliated clubs across the world,” Hasley said, noting former WSC chapters in Baja and Australia. WSC members, including Cabell, Rusty Miller (See story, B14), Phil Edwards, L.J. Richards, Butch Van Artsdalen and many others, would become surfing legends, winning a number of prestigious titles. Founding club member Hynson was one of two surfers featured in the most famous surf movie ever made, 1966’s “The Endless Summer.” ‘Barneys’ need not apply As the club’s prestige grew, it also became selective about who it admitted, Beacham recalled. “We’ve always had these long-standing criteria,” she said. “We put people in the hotspot and grill them a little bit, make them tell us why they should be in the club … Like you have to go to the community service events, carry the banners and pick up trash.” Of course, prospective
members also had to be pretty impressive surfers. “Some (club presidents) have been tougher, requiring people to surf exceptionally well or to be somebody who really surfs WindanSea or who embodies the soul of what the club represents,” Beacham said. “Like you can’t just be what they call a ‘Barney’ (novice surfer) or have paddled out at WindanSea a number of times and just apply.” Breaking waves — and boundaries Hasley recalled WSC’s 1965 expedition to the island of Todos Santos, off the coast of Ensenada, Mexico. It was the first time anyone had surfed the now famous break. “You didn’t have satellite imagery then,” Hasley said. “They went out into uncharted waters in a fishing boat and … found a surf break. It showed the organizational skills of the club.” WSC’s 1967 surf tour of Australia, New Zealand, Tahiti and Fiji was chronicled in the 20th Century Fox film, “The Fantastic Plastic Machine,” which boasts that “the most out-of-sight surfers” around “belong to the No. 1 team — the WindanSea Surf Club.” However, while the Australians were getting a firsthand education in California surf culture previously accessible only in the tunes of the Beach Boys and Jan and Dean, and via the “beach party” films of Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, WSC members were being exposed to the Aussie’s use of the short board. “There was quite a lot of cross-cultural input going on,” Hasley said. “The club kind of brought back some
of the designs and input from the Australians and it changed surfing.” In a way, several members say that cross-cultural exchange temporarily backfired on the club, and the sport of surfing, leading to WSC’s near demise in the ’70s. Warner said it was difficult to make the transition from long to short boards, and many WSC members “lost their surf stoke” when they went off to college or started families. “It kind of peaked in the early ’70s, and everything went underground,” Warner said, noting some of WSC’s best surfers — including Svenson and his organizational prowess — left for places like Hawaii or Australia. However, as the ’80s approached so too did a revival of the long board, which accompanied the reincorporation of WSC — something Beacham was heavily involved in, and which coincided with the pinnacle of her own surfing career. Club members still compete in California’s Coalition of Surfing Club events, though these days some now prefer the camaraderie and community service aspects of the club. “Sometimes a guy might show up at a contest that you haven’t seen in 20 or 30 years,” said charter member and current executive director, Harold Reid, 71, who still considers WindanSea to be one of the top three or four surf spots on the West Coast. “It’s a break you should surf if you’re going to go surf Hawaii,” Reid said. “The way that it sets up, the way it stands up and rolls over when it breaks is closer to Hawaii than a lot of breaks. It’s just a great wave. It gives you everything you want.”

A Petition for Probate has been filed by Norma Hirsh in the Superior Court of California, County of San Diego. The petition for Probate requests that Norma Hirsh and Howard Fingert, MD, jointly be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: June 11, 2013 Time: 11:00 a.m. Dept.: PC-1. Address of court: same as noted above. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

Live Here. Give Here.
Wings Over Gillespie Air Show This year’s event commemorates San Diego’s contributions to World War II and its “Arsenal of Democracy,” the fleet of war machines that were designed or built here. Dozens of planes will take to the skies, including Consolidated’s famed “flying boat,” the PBY Catalina, and one of the few PB4Y-2 Privateers still flying today. New this year is the Silver Wings wing-walking team, combining flying and artistry in a dynamic sky ballet on the wings of Stearman bi-planes. The only Northrop N9M Flying Wing returns, along with John A. Collver and his AT6/SNJ “War Dog,” a World War II trainer performing in an aerial display to the strains of patriotic music. The show also features NASA educational displays, military services, defense contractors, booths with everything from aviation art to airplane models, food and beverages, including a beer garden. The event runs 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., June 1-2, Gillespie Field, 1960 Joe Crosson Drive, El Cajon. Tickets: From $8. Parking: Free. ag1caf.org
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.
Craft a Cool Book
Two on the Aisle, Please! Commissioned by North Coast Rep, the world premiere of playwright Melinda Lopez’s “Becoming Cuba,” introduces a family coping with the changing landscape of their country as it struggles for independence in 1890s Cuba.

Tickets: $37-$54. (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org

Lithograph Show Lithographs from Hamilton Press are on exhibit 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday-Sunday (Wednesday to 8:30 p.m.) through June 15 at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, 1008 Wall St. In 1990, Ed Hamilton, a Tamarind Master Printer, and artist Ed Ruscha opened HP in Venice, Calif. to provide a good print experience for artists. The shop is very small and everything is printed by hand, without a mechanical offset or ink jet printer. In the last 23 years, many artists at the press have chosen to use words or texts in their prints — especially Raymond Pettibon, Allen Ruppersberg and Ed Ruscha. Prints by Alexis Smith, Ruscha, Ruppersberg, Raul Guerrero, Mark Licari and Dennis Hopper, among others, are on view. Free. (858) 454-5872. ljathenaeum.org
