Former president George W. Bush made Crawford, Texas, his White House getaway, marked by this road sign. By Pat Sherman hould Mitt Romney be elected the 45th U.S. president — and his beachfront home on Dunemere Drive become a de facto “White House West” — La Jollans would undoubtedly feel the impact of his presence. Would the nation’s first Mormon president use some of his copious capital gains to plate the Village streets with gold (or at least repair its crumbing sidewalks)? Or would the POTUS scoop up property around UTC’s Mormon temple to develop a Romneyland-style theme park? Though calls and e-mails to the Romney campaign went unanswered, La Jollan Renata Turquand said she feels having a president residing even

lot of people coming in just to keep an eye on things,” Coller said. “Things will happen around him. The whole infrastructure of people develops around someone who is president.” Marilyn Judy, president of the chamber of commerce in Crawford, Texas said life changed dramatically in Crawford when George W. Bush purchased Prairie Chapel Ranch, just north of her rural farming town. Bush’s frequent stays brought everything from international news crews and visiting foreign dignitaries to new businesses and people protesting the United States’ presence in Iraq. “You probably wouldn’t know when

By Pat Sherman Though members of the Save the La Jolla Post Office Task Force have received letters of support from a variety of public officials, including, most recently, state Sen. Christine Kehoe, the group wasn’t quite as auspicious in engaging Democratic U.S. Senators Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein to save the edifice. At its May 18 meeting, Task Force Chair Leslie Davis said Boxer’s office sent what she considers “a negative response” to the office of District 1 City Councilwoman Sherri Lightner, stating Boxer’s preference not to get involved. Feinstein’s office would only say they were “monitoring the situation,”Davis said. La Jolla Music Society board member Katherine Kennedy, who was in

part-time in La Jolla would bring great exposure to San Diego’s “Jewel.” “The national press is now going to talk about La Jolla as a vacation spot — what the community’s about and how beautiful it is,” she said. “It’s going to obviously bring extra traffic, but I think it’s going to be a positive thing because he’s going to highlight how beautiful La Jolla is and why somebody with his taste would choose to live here.” La Jolla Village Merchants Association board President Phil Coller said he believes Romney’s presence could only benefit local merchants. “Anything that brings people into La Jolla for any reason is good for business and one would imagine — if he spends any time here — there will a

Candidates on La Jolla issues ... and more The 5 Key Questions

1) What three specific La Jolla issues do

o provide readers with some 11th-hour inspiration prior to the June 5 Presidential Primary Election (at least those who didn’t vote absentee), the La Jolla Light posed five questions to the candidates running for mayor, city council (District 1) and Congress (52nd District) — all of whom will play a role in shaping the future of La Jolla if elected. We hope their responses offer an informative, final glimpse at the platforms and personalities of those running to represent La Jolla.

you believe to be the most pressing, and how would you address each?

Mayor of San Diego

Carl DeMaio, Republican, City Councilman (District 5) 1) A. Fix our roads: La Jolla, like the rest of San Diego has been hit hard by the intentional and indefensible underfunding of San Diego’s street repair funds. And the city’s own forecast shows the roads will get worse, not better, under the current policies. Editor’s note: For brevity’s sake, That’s why as some responses were edited for space. mayor I will To read the candidates’ responses in aggressively implement my SOS their entirety, or to view full-length Carl Save Our Streets interviews with the District 1 City DeMaio Plan to fully fund Council and 52nd District road repairs and hold city work Congressional candidates, visit crews accountable for getting the lajollalight.com job done. B. Save the La Jolla Post Office: — La Jolla Light reporter The historic La Jolla post office is a Pat Sherman produced this key part of our community. The election coverage. best way to save it is through my

3) Name a dream or aspiration you’ve had to set aside for your career?

economic revitalization program in my Pathway to Prosperity Jobs Plan. C. Traffic: La Jolla traffic is awful. Traffic calming measures are necessary in La Jolla, and traffic mitigation measures are necessary north and south of La Jolla to lighten traffic there. 2) I completely understand why La Jollans are frustrated. The roads are crumbling and infrastructure is dilapidated. Recreation and library hours have been drastically reduced, public safety coverage is down, and the politicians at City Hall ignore their concerns. La Jolla is a vibrant community that contributes an immense amount to San Diego, both culturally and fiscally, and they deserve their fair share. We need to address the fiscal issues facing our city and restore the services that our citizens want and deserve. We need to create a city that people demand to be a part of, not

a city people are desperately trying to leave. 3) First and foremost I am a businessman. I had to set aside my business career to focus on fixing the financial crisis in San Diego. It was a hard decision to make. I started my own business after college and through a lot of hard work, was able to turn into a success. I will not seek higher office. I have decided that after mayor, I will return to the business world. 4) Teddy Roosevelt. He was a great President who fought large special interests groups to better the lives of Americans. 5) Government waste! I am really frustrated by the significant amount of wasteful spending still going on at City Hall. Every single dollar of waste could be put to better use for taxpayers, like paving a road or adding an hour to libraries or hiring a police officer.

Bonnie Dumanis, Republican, District Attorney 1) A. Infrastructure maintenance and improvement: La Jolla is a beautiful part of our city that struggles with the same infrastructure problems we have citywide, such as roads that need to be paved, sidewalks that need repair, and sewer and water systems that require upgrading. We must make these vital services a priority in the budget. B. Form more public-private partnerships to complete imporBonnie tant projects: The Dumanis mayor’s office could play an important role in projects like the Torrey Pines Corridor Project to revitalize the entrance to La Jolla. This is a project

FROM ELECTION, A3 that the community and businesses in La Jolla want to see completed and I would provide more mayoral leadership to make that happen. C. Revitalize the economy to get the Village back on track: We need to solve our pension and other financial problems at City Hall so that we have funds to help places like the Village. 2) No. La Jolla is part of our city’s culture and identity. As mayor I would work with the community to provide the services this unique community needs. I believe the process of secession could harm the community. 3) At one point I wanted to be a rabbi. However, my career has been my dream and I don’t regret the decisions I made to get here, from working as a clerk typist to seeking my law degree at night. 4) I greatly admired Midge Costanza, who passed away in 2010 at the age of 77. Midge was the first woman assistant to a president, serving under President Jimmy Carter. She was a champion for women’s rights and gay rights. She was the first woman elected to the Rochester, New York, City Coun-

cil. She was on the cover of Newsweek, which called her “The Woman in the White House.” 5) Divisiveness. I believe we have spent countless dollars and hours of our time in San Diego focused on what divides us, rather than what unites us. It is time for a new era of better communication and working together. Bob Filner, Democrat, Congressman (51st District) 1) A. Teacher layoffs: I rallied with students, parents, and teachers from La Jolla community schools in protest of the over 1,500 pink slips San Diego Unified has proposed to issue this year. Our children are our future and we cannot skip on the responsibility of providing them with the quality education they Bob Filner deserve. A classroom of up to 50 students, as may be the case with these layoffs, is not an environment where effective teaching or learning can take place. As mayor, I would

join leaders from other cities and counties in California to turn around the priorities of our state leadership. B. Infrastructure: The failings of our city’s infrastructure financing are seen throughout all communities. Potholes, pipe leakages, and staffing for community resources like parks and the Riford Library directly affect the quality of life in our neighborhoods. Redevelopment funding has done wonders for downtown and the Gaslamp District. It is now time for our attention and spending to be turned back onto our communities, like La Jolla, that have been neglected in previous administrations. C. Public Transportation: Many La Jollans rely on public transportation for their commute. Imagine what we could accomplish if we placed an emphasis on improving the reliability and timeliness of our public transport systems? People from all over the city would be able to explore the natural resources that La Jolla has to offer — a thriving downtown area, great public beaches, and academic resources — and be able to fully utilize public transit for

their own travels, saving resources and helping to protect the environment. 2) No, the people of La Jolla have opinions and ideas that could contribute to the betterment of the entire city. 3) Declined to answer. 4) Bobby Kennedy: “Some men see things as they are and say ‘Why?’ I dream things that never were and say, ‘Why not?’ “ 5) Declined to answer. Nathan Fletcher, Independent, State Assemblyman (75th District) 1) A. Job Creation: La Jolla is home to some of the world’s most recognized technology clusters, including clean-tech, biotech and information technology. I want to ensure, not only that these companies get what they need from government to succeed and grow, but that we can get other companies to invest here to create more good-paying, local jobs for San Diegans. B. Education: This is an economic issue. Countless CEOs have told me they can’t hire or expand due to a workforce that doesn’t have the skills for the jobs of today. Unlike one of my oppo-

nents, I don’t propose a city takeover of the school district — I don’t think that is the right role for the mayor, and our kids can’t afford to wait years while we battle over another divisive ballot initiative. Instead, I will bring together a group of stakeholders — business leaders, teachers, administrators, parents, and create an education foundation to encourage replication of programs that are already workNathan ing, to end Fletcher the digital divide and to match training programs to industry needs. C. Infrastructure: La Jolla’s municipal infrastructure has been poorly served by City Hall. Infrastructure is a core service the city must provide. It has a huge impact, not only on our quality of life, but on our economic competitiveness as well. I have a detailed plan for prioritizing, coordinating and funding major infrastructure improvements, which you can review at nathanfletcher.com 2) I do not support seces-

sion. My goal will be to convince La Jollans it’s in their interest to remain as a vital and unique part of our city. 3) I believe my experience is my greatest asset and the reason why I am best suited for the position. From serving as a combat Marine to my work in the Assembly, I have demonstrated an ability to navigate difficult environments and make tough decisions. 4) Teddy Roosevelt was someone not afraid to take on difficult tasks and challenge the status quo. He lived life to its fullest and was always “in the arena.” 5) Politics as usual — preserving a problem to campaign on, rather than building a coalition to solve it. There are candidates in the mayor’s race who thrive on crisis and controversy. They focus more on enemies and personalities instead of tackling the tough issues, getting things done and moving the city forward. I believe it is possible to be principled without being polarizing. We can disagree without being divisive. That is how progress is made, and exactly how I plan to lead as mayor.

LA JOLLA LIGHT - MAY 31, 2012 - Page A5

FROM ELECTION, A4 District 1 City Council Sherri Lightner, Democrat, incumbent 1) A. Improving our infrastructure: This includes resurfacing streets, undergrounding utilities, replacing sewer and water mains, improving sidewalks and so on. While we’ve made great strides in infrastrucSherri ture imLightner provements, there’s still plenty more to do. When I took office, the city was hundreds of millions of dollars in deficit and on the brink of default. Working together, we were able to get our financial house in order so that we could improve our credit rating in order to borrow money to pay for these improvements. The City Council recently approved a new $75 million infrastructure bond that will resurface roads, repair our storm water system and upgrade our fire stations, lifeguard stations, libraries and other facilities. B. Improving the economic health of the area: Working with local business owners, I helped form the La Jolla Village Merchants Association to represent the 1,250 businesses in the Village and am currently working with the community to save the historic Wall Street post office because it is vital to our quality of life and our local economy. I pushed for the newly formed Economic Development and Strategies Committee so the city can better retain, grow and atChuck Helsel La Jolla Light Ad.pdf tract businesses and cut red tape for taxpayers.

C. Improving public safety and neighborhood services: This includes staffing for firefighters, lifeguards and police; maintaining and increasing hours at our library and rec center; making sure our La Jolla lifeguard towers get built and that we fund a new fire alert system. 2) I haven’t seen the latest economic analysis to determine whether an independent La Jolla would be logistically or economically viable. I would never support anything that would potentially harm the community of La Jolla or the City of San Diego. 3) I was never able to get my Ph.D. in engineering. Although I had completed all the coursework for it, I couldn’t afford to stop working in order to complete my dissertation. I needed the income to support my family. Professionally, it turned out to be a decision I do not regret. 4) My favorite President was John Adams because of the role he played in our history, the type of person he was and how he valued his wife. He respected her views, and they had a strong, loving relationship. 5) Intellectual dishonesty, especially when it is calculated. I always treat voters and constituents with respect — and that means being honest with them. We are now in the campaign season, where so many candidates make wildly inaccurate claims about each other. It is not respectful to the voters and to our democracy. I don’t like people who make calculated decisions to score political points rather than doing what is in the best interests of San Diegans. Ray Ellis, Republican, businessman 1) I’ve talked to thousands of La Jolla residents and one 4/23/2012 2:05:14 PM of the concerns that constantly comes up is quality

of life — namely the breakdown of core city services. La Jolla is one of the most pristine communities in the world, but La Jolla residents are justifiably frustrated. There is also continued concern from the businesses in La Jolla about the impact of policies and processes by the City of San Diego. La Jolla is home to both large and small businesses that do not view the city as a partner, but more as an obstacle Ray Ellis to their success. That is not in the best interests of any of us. Unfortunately, I think many La Jollans think they are not being served properly by the current councilmember. I agree. My approach to solutions would be two-fold. First, we must more aggressively address the underlying financial issues facing the city so we can get our taxpayer dollars back into the community to fix our roads, repair infrastructure, and restore services. Pension reform, coupled with a much stronger commitment to managed competition, are ways to achieve a healthier outcome for taxpayers. Second, I will focus on public-private partnerships with the business community, community groups and the philanthropic sector to address issues. 2) I completely understand why La Jollans are frustrated with the city — we all are. We need to address the fiscal issues facing our city and restore the services that our citizens want and deserve. With engaged, pro-active leadership and working together, we can address these and other issues.

FROM ELECTION, A5 We need to create a city that people are proud of, not a city people are desperately trying to leave. 3) Since leaving a successful business career, I have spent most of my time working as a volunteer in the community, philanthropic or civic areas. I have worked on key issues facing our city and region like education, workforce development, chronic homelessness, foster youth, pension issues, Balboa Park and many others. 4) My undergraduate degree is in history and I continue to be very interested in learning about the past with a focus on leadership styles. Rather than an individual, I see the “Founders” as a very powerful model. We are so blessed to have had such a diverse group who were willing to come together, collaborate and ultimately compromise to get critical things accomplished. 5) Small-mindedness. Complex issues and problems are not easily addressed and require openness and a willingness to work with others. Let’s focus on the outcome we are trying to achieve and find common ground to make it happen. Dennis Ridz, Republican, Torrey Pines Planning Board chair 1) A. Need for another fire station: Capital funding may require a bond issue. Hiring firefighters may rest on pension reform/ city budget. B. Development: Dennis Ridz Slow down the McMansions being built by the cannibalization of cottages on sub-standard size lots. Development Services is not listening to the

La Jolla planning board. There is a need for amendments to the Coastal Community Plan and more direct discussion with the Coastal Commission. C. Other issues: There are several others, saving the post office, future expansion of the La Jolla Super Loop (MTS) and crime/drunken behavior around the UCSD campus. 2) I understand the frustration of leaders within La Jolla, but cannot support La Jolla becoming its own city. There are redistricting issues, and the City of San Diego would need to be compensated for the infrastructure provided to support La Jolla. 3) I wanted to be a marine biologist studying how the oceans could help feed our world. There were very few jobs (in this field) at that point in my career, mostly working for oil companies. 4) Abe Lincoln, a leader who made life and death decisions that saved our nation and understood all men should be free. 5) Political leaders, who blindly follow their political party’s dogma without understanding that our nation was founded on “We The People,” not we the developers, we the pension union boards. Bryan Pease, Democrat, attorney A. Roads and infrastructure: This is a citywide problem, and La Jolla is no different. The city needs to spend money up front to fix our streets and potholes, which saves money longterm by preventing property damage and personal injury. B. Libraries and Rec Center hours: The hours when these facilities are open the most should be structured around when it is most convenient for taxpayers rather than for employ-

ees, ie evenings and weekends. C. Implementing the City Council's May 2010 vote to manage Children's Pool Beach in a manner that protects public safety and the seals. Sherri Lightner derailed this plan behind Bryan Pease the scenes, and I had to file successful lawsuits to get the process back on track. 2) It may be in the best interest of La Jolla, but not for San Diego as a whole. As councilmember, I will be making decisions that affect the whole city, not just District 1. 3) I'm living the dream now. I’m a solo practice lawyer, so I can pick the cases I want, and I can stand up for causes I believe in. 4) James Stephen, the abolitionist lawyer who figured out that the way to decimate the British slave trade was to ban ships flying neutral flags from delivering cargoes to French colonies. Passed as a war measure by a pro-slavery Parliament, the measure had the effect of destroying two-thirds of the British slave trade and cutting off its economic clout. 5) I most detest unfairness, whether it's Wall Street bankers being bailed out with billions of tax dollars while the average citizen gets no relief, or teachers being laid off while there is money for wars of choice, or the managers of our city's pension system having received huge pensions, while the average worker receives very little, has no social security, and will soon be asked to bet their pensions on the stock market.

SEE ELECTION, A7

Yes or No? Four Ballot Proposals Proposition A Should the City of San Diego be prohibited from requiring contractors to use Project Labor agreements for City construction projects, except when required by law, and should the Mayor be required to post online all construction contracts over $25,000? Proposition B Should the Charter be amended to direct City negotiators to seek limits on a city employee’s compensation used to calculate pension benefits; eliminate defined benefit pensions for all new city Officials and employee, except police officers substituting a defined contribution 410(k)-type plan; required substantially equal pension contributions from the City and employees; and eliminate, if possible, a cote of employees or retirees to change their benefits?

Proposition 28 A Constitutional Amendment. A YES vote on this measure means: Future members of the State Legislature could serve a total of 12 years in office — without regard to whether the years were served in the State Assembly or the State Senate. Legislators first elected on or before June 5, 2012 would continue to be restricted by existing term limits. Proposition 29 If California’s voters approve Proposition 29, the tax on cigarettes in the state will increase by $1 per pack. California’s current cigarette tax is 87 cents per pack. The total tax per pack of cigarettes, if Proposition 29 passes, will be $1.87/pack.

Protecting the progress of biotech and research My legislation, H.R. 909, The Beach Act, which addresses water quality; H.R. 1036, the Job Creation Brian and InnovaBilbray tion Investment Act of 2011; and H.R. 4056, the Science and Technology Regulatory Relief Act of 2012, all show my efforts to protect each of those. 2) No, as I know that existing state law gives the City of San Diego the control as to whether they allow any community to secede. 3) My dream is to sail around the world in my own boat and see all the many countries and their cultures. 4) President Theodore Roosevelt, because he was the president that got the job done, both addressing the economy and the environment. 5) I detest people who pick fights just to fight, especially when we have legitimate issues that we need to deal with. Gene Hamilton Carswell, Republican, developer 1) A. Support of business in La Jolla to entice more tourism, which would include the completion of the 22-year planned (Belvedere) Promenade. This costs money and that is the problem with the San Diego City Council controlling us. This project to revitalize the central business area was reapproved in 2004 and became a part of the La Jolla Community Plan and approved by the La Jolla Town Council (LJTC). When another agency controls your goal, it is a primary concern. B. Guano in the La Jolla Cove and the stench and toxicity emanating from this: It is a problem for our community, is a deterrent to tourism and this is directly related to business. Cleanup has about six to 10 regulatory hurdles to overcome. It can

be accomplished with persistence time and legal input. This is a task that we can solicit help through the Department of the Interior and accomplish. I shall be your advocate and work with the Department of the Interior to accomplish this and have a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Permit issued. C. Eliminate rush hour traffic congestion with a safe, southbound exit from I-5 onto 52 West into La Jolla and increase parking for more customer acGene cess in the Carswell business area. Removal of stop signs and the inclusion of traffic circles on Torrey Pines Road is an amazing way to allow a greater continuous flow of traffic through to ingress and egress La Jolla Shores and La Jolla Village. We need to engineer, model it and implement it at all the congested intersections on Torrey Pines Road. The parking issue is critical and must be addressed with diagonal parking on both sides of streets, adding additional parking and reducing extensive delays as people attempt to parallel-park. 2) Yes. The obvious answer is autonomy, maintaining your tax dollars here and having your destiny as a community determined locally. But there are problems with this. These can be overcome. 3) To have more of a stabilized family life is a continued dream. Most if not all of us neglect some aspect of our family to ensure financial survival for them. 4) Abraham Lincoln is the “man.” His strength, intelligence and ability to lead us to a unified nation took over 100 years to obtain. Lincoln’s understanding of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights still transcends us. 5) Other than public apathy, irresponsible politicians and the greed displayed by Wall Street — and a lack of a responsible water plan for Southern California. Wayne Iverson, Republican, physician 1) A. Appropriate Healthcare Reform: Replacing the Affordable Care Act (PPACA), President Obama’s health plan, with new, wholesome legislation. B. Reducing Taxes for all

Americans: Making the 2001/2003 tax cuts permanent, reduced tax rates, reduced capital gains tax, and simplifying IRS regulations. C. Preserve Medicare: Strengthen the current Medicare program and offer a second option to those people 55 and younger. 2) No, in this current, difficult economic environment the best measure in the short term is to elect new public officials who can restore responsible government. If La Jolla seWayne ceded it Iverson would just duplicate all the difficulties San Diego experiences. The key is to change business as usual within government administration. 3) None. 4) Benjamin Franklin. He was one of this country's founding fathers who was brilliant and had a wide range of skills and talents. 5) I am not a hateful person so “detest” is too strong of a word. I would say I most dislike man’s inhumanity to man. In that regard, the terrorist threat to Americans and the people of the world is one of my greatest concerns. Scott Peters, Democrat, Port Commissioner 1) A. Jobs and the economy: La Jolla will prosper as our national economy recovers. To help, I have pro-

posed an “Invest in America” strategy that I will support in Congress, calling for investment in infrastructure, education and a new energy strategy as ways to get people to work right now and keep America competitive into the next century. B. Basic scientific research funding: Every day here in La Jolla, researchers at Salk, Scripps, SanfordBurnham, UCSD and others use grants from the National Institutes of Health to find cures to Alzheimer’s Scott disease and Peters cancer. These scientific investments have transformed our local economy while raising the quality of life for millions worldwide. According to a recent study, high technology, which includes biotech and life sciences, accounts for an economic impact of $41.5 billion and about 11 percent of the region’s total workforce. But the current Congress is backsliding on these investments. Funding for science is not keeping pace with inflation, and is even being cut. As a member of Congress, I will fight for adequate and consistent funding for scientific research. C. Water quality: When I was elected to the City Council in 2000, San Diego had 365 sewer spills — one per day! The New York Times

travel section recently featured San Diego beaches not as attractions, but as polluted areas to be avoided. As cochair of the city's Clean Water Task Force, I led an effort to rehabilitate our long-neglected sewer system and to clean the system for the first time in over 15 years. We added low-flow sewage diverters along the coast, to capture sewage spills before they reach the ocean. As a result, by 2007, we had reduced sewer spills and beach closure days by 80 percent, and our beaches now consistently earn “A” grades for

water quality in the annual survey from Heal the Bay. As a former environmental lawyer, I understand the importance of the Clean Water Act in protecting our beaches and bays and I will fight to maintain its effectiveness. 2) It is hard for me to imagine a proposal for secession that would get the required positive vote from La Jollans and also a positive vote from the rest of the city.

Because of the election, though, I haven’t been on my bicycle in about two months. I hope to do some more riding in the summer. 4) I admire most those who fought fearlessly for positive change on behalf of others: Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Mother Teresa, Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin Roosevelt.

These seem to be some of the most pressing problems in the community. As Lori Saldana these are largely products of the city’s fiscal problems over the last decade, we need to pressure

city officials to make basic infrastructure maintenance a priority over other projects. That said, I also see reinvestment in our nation’s infrastructure as a critical component of our economic recovery and would work to secure available funding for local projects. 2) I would support the voters’ decision on this issue. Succession would be an extremely expensive undertaking, requiring a large investment in resources to pay for infrastructure maintenance, public safety and other amenities like parks and libraries. Any ballot language would need to fully and accurately address the related costs, so residents understand what’s at stake for their pocketbooks. 3) I’ve been fortunate in

HOW BLACK MOUNTAIN BICYCLES HAS HELPED

KEEP SAN DIEGO ROLLING FOR 39 YEARS.

Since 1973, Black Mountain Bicycles has been helping to keep San Diegans lean and green atop two wheels. From kids’ bikes and commuters to pro-grade mountain and road bikes, Black Mountain Bicycles offers the selection people want with the service and repair staff to keep customers rolling. Bank of America has supported Black Mountain Bicycles for 15 years — most recently with financing and a business line of credit that enabled expansion into a larger, more accessible location off I-15 and Mira Mesa Boulevard. It’s a small-business success story that’s not only helping a popular business expand to better serve its customers — it’s also creating new jobs and spurring local economic growth. Black Mountain Bicycles is another example of how we’re working to help locally based businesses grow and hire in San Diego — and across the country. In 2011, we provided $1.27 billion in new credit to small businesses in California — an increase of 14% from 2010.

From Romney, A1 extra people came to La Jolla,” Judy said, “but they stick out like a sore thumb in a little bitty town of 700 people. We would have cars with all different kinds of license plates. If they were tourists they were asking, ‘How do you get to the president’s ranch?’ Whether he was there or not, they wanted to go.” Judy said a highlight of Bush’s years in office included the time he and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke to students in the auditorium of Crawford High School. “We had the whole world there watching that conference,” she said. “We told our kids, ‘You will read about this in your history books, and you’re a part of it.’” Judy said the only problem Crawford experienced was the protestors (which included former San Diego news anchor Bree Walker). “When you have thousands of people come to a little town, that’s overwhelming,” she said. “But the businesses loved them. We had about four little gift shops that opened — and those were Crawford people.”

The road leading to Mitt Romney’s home on Dunemere Drive in La Jolla. But as Bush left office and his political stardom began to wane, business dried up, Judy said. “We still have the restaurant, but the gift shops have all closed but one, because the tourists are gone,” she said. “We didn’t have a chamber of commerce before he came and now we really don’t have one because there’s nothing going on.” Ken Raynor, the head golf professional at Cape Arundel Golf Club near Kennebunkport, Maine said tourists and lookie-loos hoping to get a glimpse of the Bush compound at Walker’s

Point have also been good for business. Bush’s Walker’s Point estate is the summer home of 41st President George H.W. Bush and was visited occasionally by his son, when he served as the 43rd president. During the past two decades, businesses near Kennebunkport have cashed in on the clamor, producing T-shirts that rebranded the Atlantic seaside community as “KenneBUSHport” and “The Summer White House.” “There’s only been 44 men ever in the history of our nation who have held that title,” Raynor said. “To

know that one of them roams your streets obviously brings a meaning to your town and to your structure. It is certainly an honor, a privilege and a life experience — especially when so many people get to meet him and shake hands in casual situations in your town.” Raynor, who has traveled extensively with the elder Bush as his personal golf pro (including trips to the White House and to Camp David), said media alone boosted the local economy. “During the various activities that the president chooses to participate in —

&Marti GeLLenS

whether it be a walk on the beach in zero-degree weather or a round of golf on a beautiful hot day — the press is going to be somewhere present,” Raynor said. “The press brings in waves of people who obviously need to eat and they become tourists when they’re off duty. They all create an opportunity for the local merchants to be successful. … At Cape Arundel, we carried a presidential seal golf shirt, and it sold very, very well.” During their presidential tenures, both Bushes set up shop in their respective vacation homes, the younger Bush providing trailers on the ranch for White House staffers. “Bush (considered) Kennebunkport his ‘anchor to windward,’” Raynor said of the elder president. “It was his think tank to get away from the heat of Washington and to go out to watch the ocean waves breaking, but it was also an area for him to bring dignitaries to get to know each other and put them in a casual atmosphere, maybe (to develop) a little more trust between the two

people and accomplish a more work. “We’ve had lots of celebrities and movie stars come to Kennebunkport,” Raynor said. “Obviously, a president travels in a fast circle and shares it with your town when they live there.” Managing the influx Though opinion varies on what effect a ‘President Romney’ would have on La Jolla (see Views, A18), most agree that traffic would increase substantially. With entrances to the village from the north, south and east already congested during tourist season, the scene in and around Romney’s Beach-Barber neighborhood could be chaotic. “I don’t even know how you could be prepared for something like that — especially in a small community like ours,” said Todd Lesser, president of the La Jolla Traffic and Transportation board. “The Secret Service does a pretty good job, and I’m sure they’ll find a route (in

Restrictive street signs limited entry to his portion of Dunemere Drive to residents only, while Secret Service agents in SUVs were parked on the street surveying the situation. Other suited agents stood atop the steps leading up from the beach to Romney’s home. Presidential nominees are provided Secret Service protection when there are extenuating circumstances — in Romney’s case it was afforded due to the large, unwieldy crowds at his campaign appearances. Greg Meyer, a special agent in charge of the Secret Service’s San Diego field office, said agents take “reoccurring courses and training prior to any election.”

Obviously, a president travels in a “ fast circle and shares it with your town when he lives there. ”

— Golf pro Ken Raynor, who helped George H.W. Bush hone his chip shot at a course near the Bush compound at Kennebunkport, Maine.

Though there is little the agency can discuss about the tactics used to protect Romney, Meyer confirmed that Romney has been in La Jolla “on a couple of occasions where we’ve been involved with him.” “We work very closely with the immediate neighborhood,” Meyer said. “We’re very well aware of the impact that we can have on the neighborhood and on the immediate neighbors of anybody who we protect. We reach out to those neighbors and talk with them and try to work with them, because wherever we go, as far as protection, we do have an impact — if on nothing more than traffic or parking. “That will continue to be a bigger problem, the longer it goes on,” Meyer noted.

“As we increase the size of protection and increase the assets that we use, it will obviously have a greater impact. We try to do everything we can to minimize our imprint, but it’s difficult. It’s just a very unique situation with him and the neighborhood. “When we have vehicles and we have a motorcade, we’re very cognizant about blocking neighbors in, and we work with them to try and make it so we don’t affect their day-to-day lives too much. We advise the neighbors that if there’s any issues they have, they can come and talk with us and we’ll try and make any arrangements that we can to accommodate them. … The neighbors have been very good. We reached out to them before our first

visit there.” Mark Quint, owner of Quint Contemporary Art gallery in the Village, lives a few houses down from Romney on Sea Lane. Quint said Secret Service agents haven’t been by his house to speak with him, though he said a police officer spoke to him as he was backing out of his driveway Easter weekend to ask whether he noticed any more marijuana smoking than usual on the beach. The officer said he had received complaints from a neighbor, pointing in the general direction of Romney’s home. “I’d hate to see them closing down part of the beach, I really would … (but) I guess you can’t do anything about it,” Quint said. During George W. Bush’s presidency, the Federal Aviation Administration established a full-time, nofly zone of three nautical miles around his ranch — a restriction that was expanded to 10 nautical miles while Bush was visiting. Though Meyer wouldn’t say if similar restrictions would be established for Romeny’s La Jolla home, he

conceded, “It does make things a little bit more interesting and challenging.” San Diego Police Lt. Andra Brown said SDPD is currently working with the Secret Service “to discuss possible circumstances and contingencies that would surround the protection of the Romney family.” “We would look at each instance on a case by case basis, Brown said. “We will enforce the appropriate laws related to traffic, residential picketing, trespassing and other disturbances.” Asked whether the beach behind Romney’s home would be closed to the public during his visits, Brown referred the La Jolla

Light to the California Coastal Commission. Coastal Commission district manager Deborah Lee said the commission would have to “look at the specifics of any such requests — the length of (closure), the distance and if (Romney) would ask for complete closure of the entire lateral access.” Brown said at this time such a request has not been brought before the Coastal Commission. “We would hope that someone would ask us and the city about it well beforehand to try to come to some reasonable solution, but we haven’t had to deal with this circumstance before,” she said.

From UCSD Reports An interdisciplinary team of scientists at UC San Diego composed of physicists, biologists, chemists, bioengineers and psychologists has received a five-year, $7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Defense to investigate the dynamic principles of collective brain activity. The research effort, which is being funded by the Office of Naval Research under the Defense Department’s Multi-University Research Initiative, or MURI, will also involve scientists at UC Berkeley and the University of Chicago. The team plans to conduct basic research on how collective action in the brain learns, modulates and produces coherent function-

al neural activity for coordinated behavior of complex systems. “This research will tie together theoretical ideas, hardware implementation of structural models and experimental investigations of human and animal behavior to develop a quantitative understanding and a predictive language for discussing complex physical and biological systems,” said Henry Abarbanel, a physics professor at UCSD who is heading the collaboration. The grant will pay for new laboratory facilities at UCSD and the University Chicago, create powerful parallel computing capabilities for the three universities involved and employ 10 or more postdoctoral research fellows.

FROM ELECTION, A8 can qualify for real estate loans. Besides why should a bank take the risk and lend to you at 3.25 percent when they can get the same yield on a U.S. Treasury bond at no risk. Policies like this are preventing growth because the lenders do not want to take any risk. 2) No. There are many fiscal issues San Diego is facing, but La Jolla seceding will not solve any of the true economic issues. 3) My dream would be to try to make America a better place for our children, including my two little girls, and many younger generations to come. I truly hope and would be very honored to represent each and every one of you in Congress if given

that opportunity and trust. 4) Gen. George S. Patton: “Americans love a winner. Americans will not tolerate a loser. Americans despise cowards. Americans play to win all of the time. … That’s why Americans have never lost nor will ever lose a war; for the very idea of losing is hateful to an American.” 5) How critical issues are currently being handled in our country. The politicians in Washington are simply selling out America, outsourcing the jobs, and making the middle class a thing of the past. Washington needs new people who are familiar with real-life situations that have not been insulated from the world of reality.

Better Business Bureau cautions: Its name appears in phishing e-mails sent to businesses The San Diego Better Business Bureau is warning businesses about phony emails intended to fool people into thinking the BBB is sending them an e-mail concerning a consumer complaint against their business. The e-mails contain the BBB’s name and brand logo and redirect the user to a website infected with malware software intended to damage or disable computers and net-

works. The BBB said the emails are a scam because it does not send complaints to businesses as e-mail attachments. The BBB said it believes the fraudulent e-mails are part of a nationwide phishing scam designed to extract financial data from computer networks for the purpose of identity theft, including stealing sensitive financial information from businesses that use online

banking accounts. Copycat spammers also are reportedly sending multiple copies of the same spoofing email containing links to the malware or a virus. Some victims with infected computers after clicking the link have lost money transferred out of their bank accounts, the BBB said. The BBB recommends examining all e-mails that come from a BBB address

and follow-up with a phone call to the BBB office to verify any consumer complaints. Also, delete unsolicited e-mails, do not open links or attachments appearing in unsolicited emails and update anti-virus software on a regular basis.

Girard Gourmet adds new pickup kiosk By Marti Gacioch White bean and ham soup with organic greens. Stuffed zucchini and fresh strawberry-rhubarb pie. For 25 years, these and many other culinary delights have kept Girard Gourmet’s customers coming back for more. Now the new pick-up kiosk at the back of the restaurant makes that even easier. “Customers can call in their order, give us a credit card number, and call again after they enter our alley, and we’ll have their food ready at the back door,” said co-owner, Diana Goedhuys. Diana and her pastry chef husband, Francois, share the business. Their love for their customers and the La Jolla community continues to inspire their creativity. “It’s very satisfying to see people on a daily basis over many years; they really become a part of your life,” Diana said. “And now that we’re growing a lot of our vegetables and fruits, it’s wonderful to see what new things we can come up with that are fresh, healthful and still reasonable.” For 10 years, the couple has grown a range of organic produce on their one-acre Julian farm. Twice a week, they take their La Jolla kitchen scraps to the farm for compost. Throughout the seasons, their crops — tomatoes, chard, eggplant and zucchini — inspire new dishes. An orchard of 40 fruit trees yields fresh peaches, apricots, and plums for summer pies and tarts, while a variety of

www.lajollalight.com From Post office, A1 attendance, noted two prominent La Jolla philanthropists and music society supporters who have a personal relationship with the senators and could possibly help persuade them. “They could pick up the phone and talk to both of those people — and would,” said Kennedy, who also said she would reach out to former Congresswoman Lynn Schenk. “We need to buy time and they’ve both donated to and been involved in their campaigns heavily. … We might as well use their influence.” Task force member Joe LaCava hand-delivered letters to the offices of local congressional representatives Brian Bilbray (R-50th), Susan Davis (D-53rd) and Bob Filner (D-51st), asking them to insert language into the 21st Century Postal Service Act of 2012 (S.B. 1789), which would allow the La Jolla Historical Society right of first refusal to purchase the post office building with a leaseback provision of 10 years. USPS would then become a paying tenant, providing a revenue stream for the society to pay off the Wall Street building and potentially fund the activities of other nonprofits using the space. The letter also asks that the legislative amendment afford the building historic designation. “It’s certainly aggressive,” Davis

LA JOLLA LIGHT - MAY 31, 2012 - Page A17

U.S. Senators Barbara Boxer (left) and Dianne Feinstein have chosen not to get involved with saving La Jolla’s post office. said, “but I think at the least we will get in a good conversation, based on those requests — and with conversation, usually that’s where solutions are found.” Lobbyist and task force member Jim Lantry said Bilbray’s office was “still debating internally what they want to do and how far they’re willing to go.” Davis noted the “happy coincidence” that Bilbray’s cousin, James Bilbray, is a member of the USPS board of governors. “We will see if it’s happy or not,” Lantry said. Conversations with representatives in the offices of Filner and Davis produced less substantive results, Lantry said. “We need at least one of them to put that (amendment) in writing,” he said, noting that the most likely suspects would be Filner, who is running for mayor, and Bilbray, who is seeking an additional term in Congress.

Barring a legislative act of Congress, the fate of the Wall Street post office rests in the hands of the Postal Regulatory Commission, an independent agency whose five members are appointed to six-year terms by the office of the President and confirmed by the Senate. “The bill (S.B. 1789) is going through Congress right now,” Lantry said, noting that a portion of it seeks to take $8.1 out of USPS’s reserves to offset postal service loses. “If I’m the Postal Regulatory Commission and I get $8.1 billion to go along with what Congress says … I’m going to go for it.” Davis added, “Congress can put pressure on the Postal Regulatory Commission, which can put pressure on the U.S. Postal Service.” La Jolla Music Society’s president and artistic director, Christopher Beach, who also was in attendance, noted that the LJMS has maintained an office half a block from the post office for the past three decades. “It seems to me an appropriate and laudable effort to try and exert pressure from all of these different angles,” said Beach, a native of Massachusetts. La Jolla architect Jim Alcorn addressed how to best utilize the Wall Street building if the community were to partner with USPS on a leaseback, or with a sympathetic developer who

On the web Save the La Jolla Post Office Community Task Force ■ s avelajollapostoffice.org would retain the building’s historic character. Alcorn said apartments could possibly be added to a new second story. He also suggested that the task force work with USPS to see if the postal service could use less than its stated need for 6,000 feet, thus providing more space for potential community partners on the ground floor. Kennedy said it may be inevitable that USPS will have to vacate the Wall Street building, given the postal service’s waning customer base and $250,000 in deferred building maintenance the USPS said is needed on the site. “They may have to move the post office anyway because it will become a factor of obsolescence at

some time — and it wouldn’t make sense to even lease 5,000 square feet,” Kennedy said, adding that community members should be concerned the building doesn’t become a T-shirt shop or outlet for a series of rotating businesses. “I think what this community wants is a sense of history, a sense of class and a sense of staying as village-like as we possibly can,” she said. “We can’t control the federal government. Obviously, they’ve got plenty of games to play, but we can come up with a plan to look at what we want overall. “If we lose the post office, do we really want to just let this (building) go to anything? I don’t. There’s no accounting for the bad taste money can buy.” Davis said the task force had likely bought the community 60 to 90 days in which to form a plan to save the Wall Street post office from relocation and sale by engaging proactively with the United States Postal Service. “This is an extraordinary task force,” she said of the group, which is comprised of historians, architects, developers and concerned citizens. “Most communities couldn’t get these people to all show up on a Friday because they’re doing stuff. La Jolla is lucky for lots of reasons.”

“I think it’s fabulous. It’s so nice to have someone close and personal, because he’s a close and personal man. You see him on the street and he’s very friendly. We get a lot of famous people around here, but not the president.” Carole Sabin (Used to live in Romney’s Dunemere Drive home)

“It’d probably just be another sort of spectacle to add to La Jolla, you know, that feel you have for celebrity retreat homes and whatnot. Not that we need to put La Jolla on the map more, but it will just be another (attraction) to visit, … another talking point for tourism.” Nick Riley La Jolla Shores

FYI: Secret Service Protection 101 n Though, President Lincoln established the Secret Service to combat counterfeiting on April 14, 1865 — the day before he was shot to death at Ford’s Theatre in Washington, D.C. — it would take another 36 years and the assassination of two more presidents (James A. Garfield and William McKinley) before the Congress added protecting the president to duties performed by the Secret Service. n In 1917, threats against the president became a felony and Secret Service protection was expanded to include all members of the first family. n In 1951, protection of the vicepresident and the president-elect was added. n Following the assassination of presidential candidate Robert Kennedy in 1968, President Lyndon Johnson authorized the Secret Service to provide

protection to all presidential candidates. Federal law permits major-party presidential candidates that meet certain fundraising and polling criteria to request Secret Service protection. n In 1997, Congressional legislation went into effect limiting Secret Service protection to former presidents for a period of not more than 10 years from the date the former president leaves office. n Marilyn Judy of the Crawford Chamber of Commerce said George W.

City wraps up undergrounding of utility lines for 950 La Jolla residences By Pat Sherman City officials and SDG&E workers gathered at the corner of Draper Avenue and Genter Street in the Village on May 24 to witness the removal of one of the final utility poles from an area serving roughly 950 residences. Undergrounding in project area 1F, located between Coast Boulevard and Eads Avenue, from Kline Street south to Glenview Lane, began in January 2008. More than 1.43 miles of overhead utility wire was moved underground during the fouryear work cycle, and 127 utility poles removed. “This project is a perfect example of the city working with our utility partners to create a lasting impression for San Diego,” said District 1 City Councilwoman Sherri Lightner, addressing a small group of city officials and residents before the pole was removed. Lightner praised the community for its patience while the project progressed. “Just when you thought another San Diego neighborhood couldn’t get any more beautiful, this one certainly has,” she said. “Thanks to this undergrounding effort, residents are less vulnerable to utility outages caused by wind, rain and other external factors. Relocating utility lines underground will also save money and time in the long run, freeing up city staff, utility crews and public safety workers to focus on other neighborhoods in need when natural disasters strike.” As part of the project, city crews added 30 streetlights and 39 pedestrian ramps to the neighborhood. Nearly 70 trees will be planted there, per residents’ requests, and the streets resurfaced. Since the 1970s, all new

Utilities Undergrounding Project La Jolla areas scheduled for utility line undergrounding: ■ 1H: 252 parcels, 105 poles ■ 1J: 216 parcels, 68 poles ■ 1JPHII: 263 parcels, 74 poles ■ 1M: 238 parcels, 101 poles ■ 1M1: 202 parcels, 77 poles

SDG&E crews removed one of the final utility poles from a La Jolla neighborhood, for which undergrounding of utility lines began in January 2008. PHOTOS BY Pat Sherman residential neighborhoods have been required to install underground utility lines. About a decade ago, the California Public Utilities Commission mandated that a surcharge be added to customers’ utility bills for the conversation of overhead utility lines in older neighborhoods. Each year, approximately 30-35 miles of overhead utility lines are undergrounded in San Diego. “There are approximately 70 miles currently under construction, which will benefit more than 7,500 customers throughout San Diego,” Lightner said. The city removes what are known as “distribution poles,” while the removal of larger, taller “transmission poles,” which may hold six lines, must be coordinated with SDG&E. (Transmission lines are those which trans-

mit higher voltage electricity over longer distances.) Charlynne Moyer, a principal traffic engineer aide with the city, said future undergrounding project areas would be much smaller (an average of about 250 to 450 residences), so that the work is more manageable. Two more La Jolla project areas are set to go before the city council for approval in July and November, after which the design process and coordination with utility providers will commence. Who’s next? The next five contiguous project areas in La Jolla slated for undergrounding include: 1J (in La Jolla Shores, north of Avenida de la Playa); 1JPHII (a large swath east and south of 1J); 1M (in the West Muirlands area); 1M1 (south of 1M) and 1H (in the heart of the Village).

Ignacio De La Torre, AT&T’s regional vice president of external affairs, speaks to residents and city officials prior to the removal of a utility pole at Draper Avenue and Genter Street.

Each of the project areas are slated for environmental review in the near future, which will determine the date the work will commence.

To view a map of the areas, visit sandiego.gov/undergrounding

Due to environmental issues, utility poles located in canyons, which may block homeowner views, are removed after all other undergrounding work in the city is complete. “As far as priorities, it goes to the back of the list,” said James Bajet, with the city’s utlity undergrounding program. “That’s one of the caveats. Anything with environmental (sensitivity) just skyrockets the expenses of a particular project.” Light too bright? In the past week, several residents complained to the La Jolla Light about the brightness of the replacement street lamps the city is installing

during undergrounding. During the project, the city began replacing existing, low-pressure sodium lamps with high-pressure sodium lamps, ultimately switching last fall to more energy-efficient, longer-lasting fixtures that produce a whiter light that is more akin to sunlight. The city expects to save $2.2 million annually from installation of the new broadspectrum induction lamps. Moyer said those who find the light too bright can request that the city install a shield around the base of the lamp to decrease its intensity. To request such, call the city’s Development Services department at (858) 694-7000.

Water polo standouts lead way to next level By Rick LeBeau f you followed high school water polo in 2011-12, you saw The Bishop’s School and La Jolla High exhibit star talent and a high degree of success. The Bishop’s boys came up one goal short in their CIF final versus Coronado, and Bishop’s girls ended a dominant run by winning its second straight CIF championship in a hard-fought final against La Jolla. It was the second year in a row in which the crosstown rivals squared off in the finals, displacing Coronado as the perennial match-up for the

10 QUESTIONS

Jacqueline Bell believes the sunny side of life should always be up! Jacqueline A. Bell is vice president of the Bird Rock Community Council. She also serves on the board of the San Diego Women’s Foundation. Bell holds the designations Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), Certified Financial Planner (CFP), and has a bachelor’s degree from Harvard University, where she graduated magna cum laude in history and science. Jacqueline Bell Since joining Dowling & Yahnke in 2007, she’s been a member of the firm’s investment and marketing committees, as well as its management team. She has 20 years of experience in investment management, including 10 years managing a global equity mutual fund for Merrill Lynch Investment Managers (now Black Rock, Inc.). What brought you to La Jolla? I moved to La Jolla from the East Coast in 2006. However, I first visited La Jolla during my senior year in high school and fell in love with the natural beauty of the area. I thought it would be great to live here someday. Well, after 20 years of northeast winters (Boston, New York, Princeton), having been born and raised in Jamaica, I was ready to get back to a lifestyle closer to the one I grew up with — living near the ocean with good weather year-round. What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? If I could snap my fingers and have it happen, I would restore funding to public schools. School funding has been cut each year since I moved here and, as the mother of fourth- and sixthgraders, I am concerned that we are permanently damaging the quality of education in our state. Who or what inspires you? I am an admirer of the Dalai Lama. Unfortunately, I was unable to get a ticket to see him on his recent visit to San Diego, but I find his message of love and compassion inspiring in a world that is still so full of hatred and violence. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? My dinner party guests would include the Dalai Lama, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., Mother Teresa, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf (president of Liberia), Maya Angelou, plus my two children so they could benefit from the wisdom of these illustrious individuals.

Just Wondering ... What’s the difference between a dolphin and a porpoise? It comes down to their faces, (remember Flipper’s “grin”?), their fins, and their figures. Dolphins tend to have prominent, elongated “beaks” and cone-shaped teeth, while porpoises (pictured) have smaller mouths and spade-shaped teeth. The dolphin’s hooked or curved dorsal fin (in the middle of the animal’s back) also differs from the porpoise’s triangular dorsal fin. Dolphin bodies are lean, porpoises’ are portly. Dolphins are also more talkative. They make whistling sounds through their blowholes to communicate with one another underwater. Scientists are pretty sure that porpoises do not do this. Dolphins and porpoises have many similarities, one is their extreme intelligence. Both have large, complex brains and a structure in their foreheads, called the melon, with which they generate sonar (sound waves) to navigate their underwater world. — oceanservice.noaa.gov

A real La Jolla gem: Caroline’s Seaside Cafe By Kelley Carlson ear the Scripps Pier, just above the sparkling blue Pacific, is the “green” Caroline’s Seaside Cafe. Located on the eco-friendly UC San Diego campus, the restaurant — named for major Scripps supporter Caroline Nierenberg — offers organic, fair trade foods, and supports local businesses and farmers. “You know you’re eating the best ingredients we can possibly find,” owner/chef Giuseppe Ciuffa said. The ingredients are assembled into breakfast, brunch and lunch dishes that are listed on electronic screenboards displayed above the front counter rather than on printed menus, cutting down on the restaurant’s paper use. The morning menu contains healthful items such as Caroline’s Parfait with layers of mixed berries, organic vanilla yogurt and homemade granola; and specialties including the popular Housemade Buttermilk Pancakes, which can be garnished with blueberries, bananas or chocolate chips for an extra charge. About a half-dozen dishes are created from farm-fresh eggs, including the All-American Scramble with white cheddar and applewood bacon. Soups, salads, sandwiches and burgers comprise the midday selections. One option is the Farmer’s Grilled Cheese, featuring

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant at lajollalight.com. Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story. This week: ■C aroline’s Pancakes spring garlic-goat cheese spread, cheddar, grilled tomatoes and spinach between slices of sourdough bread. Ciuffa recommends the Chopped Salad, in which the ingredients vary by season. Currently, it’s a colorful mixture of corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, avocado, romaine, feta, carrots and a citrus vinaigrette. Top it with a protein such as salmon, and add a few drops from a bottle of O’Brother That’s Hot! organic jalapeno pepper sauce. While there are plenty of healthful options, there are also “naughty” choices on the menu, Cuiffa said. One example is hamburgers — although they are made from hormone-free ground beef. The combination of casual food selections and a laid-back atmosphere — with views

Housemade Buttermilk Pancakes topped with blueberries. spanning from Black’s Beach to the Cove — draws a variety of people. There are UCSD students and professors, families with children, surfers in wetsuits, beachgoers in shorts and flip-flops, and ladies with Louis Vuitton bags. All of them find common ground at Caroline’s, as they walk up to the counter, place an order, and wait for the staff to bring their food. Music ranging from Latin jazz to dance/techno and popular styles can be heard in the background. Some patrons settle in the main dining room, with its clean-cut, modern decor inspired by the ocean. The green and blue backsplash around the counter area is reminiscent of waves, with contemporary, pure-white furniture symbolizing the caps. There are very few visual distractions, as

guests are able to gaze outside at the shores through large, glass panes. Other patrons sit outside on the terrace, an idyllic spot during a sunny day with a cool breeze. Many of them enjoy meals; some kick back with a beer, margarita or Bloody Mary. Families with energetic kids will often set up in the grassy area at the bottom of Caroline’s stairs and let their little ones burn energy while having a picnic. Parents can choose fare for their youngsters from the children’s menu. Some guests take their food down a few extra steps to the beach. “Relax, eat, enjoy and just realize how lucky we are to be where we live,” Ciuffa said. A note about parking: The lot closest to Caroline’s — which is near the Scripps Seaside Forum — is reserved for the university during the week, but it’s fair game for everyone on the weekends. If it’s difficult to find a spot, one option is to park at La Jolla Shores and walk about 10 to 15 minutes along the beach, toward the pier, to the Caroline’s staircases. A time of day that is typically calm is the morning during a weekday. It’s magical, Ciuffa said — the sun has just risen, it’s not quite hot, and there aren’t many people. “Have an early breakfast when it’s quiet and watch the day start,” Ciuffa said.

The inexplicable mindset of men

Let Inga Tell you

We Are Buying

cave after he slew the mastodon. (Can he ever put anything away after he finishes using it?) She retrieves it. But does she get thanks? Not a chance. We recently watched our friend Jeff do the 21st century version of this when he was searching for a DVD he wanted to lend us. After his third loop, his wife, Annie, went to have what she called “an Annie look,” and came back with it immediately. Annie did a quick review of the first three places Jeff had looked and found it. A corollary of Ineffective Circular Search Behavior is that just because the husband didn’t find it there doesn’t mean it wasn’t there all along (see “mayonnaise” above). But as my friend Julia discovered, go away for a few weeks and leave most men on their own, and they quickly revert back to useless guy behaviors. Must be something in the Y (Why???) chromosome. They revert to eating from the Basic Four Guy

DIRTY

y expat friend Julia had to go out of town for several weeks on a family emergency and was surprised to return and find a veritable mountain of laundry waiting for her. She’d expected laundry, of course, but commented that she had never realized that her husband Fred owned so many clothes. Turned out that when she left, he hadn’t. But as he ran out of clean clothes, he just kept buying more. Weeks of more. I laughed at this story because it’s just such a guy thing to do. I emailed back that I thought this topic would make a great column about The Inexplicable Mindset of Men and did I have her permission to include this incident? The response was instantaneous, even from the eight-hour time difference in Paris: “Do me a favor. Make Fred the focus.” Well, I would, except that Fred just has so much company. My former husband, who had a penchant for losing things, had a similar philosophy on clothing. Why stress about where your bathing trunks are? Just buy 12 pairs. I might have been more impressed by this strategy had he ever been

able to find any of them. I put all of this under the heading of Useless Guy Tricks. The useless refers to the guy, not the tricks. It is well documented that the sexes are doomed not to understand each other. But as one who has lived in a male-centric household all her adult life (two husbands, two sons, one male dog), weird behaviors of the male of the species has always been a topic of keen interest, if total bafflement, to me. In some cases, one can only include that a wife is so much cheaper than a conservator. Interestingly, my second husband, Olof, has surprisingly few Useless Guy Behaviors, possibly the result of having been single for so long after his first marriage. But like all men, he is indelibly afflicted with guygene-pool-embedded Passive-Dependent Blindness: you know, where a person of the male persuasion is standing in front of an open refrigerator with the mayonnaise dead center at eye level and says, “Do we have any mayonnaise?” Analogous to that is the universal male phenomenon of Ineffective Circular Search Behavior. When men lose things, they will look in three places. If they don’t find it, they will continue to look in those same three places in an endless pathetic futile loop. I can only assume this is something that developed in the cave-dwelling area and became hopelessly locked into male genes. The cave wife would watch her guy circling the cave in increasing frustration looking for his club before she would step in and ask the question that became indelibly embedded in women: “Well, where did you last see it?” He grumbles, “How would I know? If I knew that, I’d be able to find it!” As she suspected, he left it outside the

Food Groups (deli takeout, pizza delivery, Mrs. Stouffers, and grilled burgers). Despite being captains of industry, their global stewardship skills suddenly fail to extend to the operation of a washing machine that requires setting a dial to Wash and pushing a button marked Start. The dishwasher’s operation equally becomes a subject of such complexity that its interior descends into a level of green fuzziness capable of generating new strains of penicillin. Wife comes home to a house that looks like a refugee camp. Which in a sense it was. So, Fred, you’re on warning. Next time Julia heads out of town, you’d better up your game. Because now the world is watching. — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life every other week in The La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

The pineapple of my eye — summer’s sweetest pickens’ Cookbook author visits

Kitchen Shrink Catharine L. Kaufman

friend was throwing a kitschy “Mad Men” dinner party, taking a nostalgic trip back to the cocktail culture of the ‘60s. Everything was flawless down to the Jackie O’ tablesetting, classic Caesar Salad and flaming Steak Diane. The New York cherry cheesecake was pure bliss, but the pineapple Jell-O mold was a flop — runny despite being refrigerated overnight. It took a food detective to find the root of the problem. Elementary, my dear dinner guests, it must be the raw pineapple. This tropical beauty contains an enzyme called bromelain that breaks down proteins.

a few minutes, or use canned. June is National Fresh Fruit Month, so let’s kick it off with a primer on the summer’s quintessential favorite that is usually very accommodating. Tropical Trails Pineapple’s etymology can be attributed to European explorers who thought the fruit resembled a pinecone while its flesh was reminiscent of an apple. During Chris Columbus’ West Indies’ expeditions he

scoped out the divine pine and brought it back to Spain where it was coveted by Queen Isabella. The Spanish introduced the pineapple to Hawaii, which now produces one-third of the world’s crop. The Boons of Bromelain The intoxicating aroma pulls you in, and the sweet, juicy flesh hooks, but that’s not all. Pineapple contains bromelain, an anti-inflammatory enzyme that aids digestion, is linked to alleviating sinusitis, a sluggish pancreas and putting the skids on blood clots, thereby reducing stroke and heartattack risks. Packed with Vitamins C, B1, manganese and copper, this tropical warrior is an antioxidant powerhouse that boosts iron absorption, strengthens the nervous system, and keeps blood pressure and heart rate at an even keel. It’s also a good source of fiber so the pipes run smoothly. Fun Fruit Facts The pineapple is not a single fruit, rather a cluster of more than 100 fruitlets. Pineapples not only grow at a snail’s pace, about two years to reach full size, but the plant is a poor producer, sprouting one or two pineapples during its

Of the 100 varieties, the most popular is the Smooth Cayenne, followed by the Red Spanish with a hearty skin that makes them durable for shipping. The hefty Sugar Loaf and the Golden Supreme have a lower acidic content and greater sweetness. One word of pineapple caution: eat in moderation, as this acidic fruit can be irritating to some. Pick a Perfect Pineapple When picking a winner, you

must smell, look, touch and pluck. If it exudes a sweet, fragrant aroma, then it’s ripe. No smell means it’s unripe, while a fermented odor means it’s overripe. Look for a golden glow, and avoid one that is mostly green or has soft or brown spots. Another telltale sign that it’s ripe comes from tugging on the top leaves: if they’re easily plucked, then it’s a keeper. To hasten ripening at home, simply prop upside down on its leafy head.

equal mix of color and black & white shots, with some interesting examples of tinting and the use of Photoshop mixed in. The photographs depict children or adults with children, solitary readers perusing a book in quiet, books on the shelf, peeks through the stacks, collages, and views of the numerous sculptures in the library, as well as the library’s walls, staircases, and fixtures. Many of the best focus on the geometric features of the skyline or the ceiling of the library or look down a tall staircase. No awards will be given out because the library wants to emphasize the spirit of cooperation rather than competition. Just to be included in the exhibition is considered to be an honor, said Powers. All of the photographs will be framed and for sale, with a price range from $50 to $500. The library will receive a 20-percent commission on all of the works sold. Viewing the show will open eyes to all the beauty and intricacies that exist, both inside the library and out. One is sure to want to explore all the nooks and crannies and other wonders the library has to offer.

Scientists gather to discuss future of sustainable food and energy By Lynne Friedmann ith human population at 7 billion (and counting) food and energy security pose critical worldwide issues. Researchers see a way to tackle both problems through better harnessing of photosynthesis. “Plants are very good at turning the sun’s energy into chemical energy, meaning food and bio-energy,” said Julian Schroeder, UCSD professor of biology, and co-director of Food and Fuel for the 21st Century (FF21), a new University of California organized research unit (ORU). “Plants will be part of the solution for a sustainable future, but the challenges are undoubtedly great and also pressing.” The use of photosynthesis to solve food and fuel problems gains traction when you consider the Earth receives about 6,000 times more energy from the sun than all present human energy demands. “The mission of this new ORU is to support development of innovative, sustainable, and commercially viable solutions for the renewable production of food, energy, green chemistry and bio-products using photosynthetic organisms,” said Stephen Mayfield, UCSD professor of biology, FF21 co-director, and director of the San Diego Center for Algae Biotechnology, which is working with industry and academic partners to develop economical algal biofuels. To kick-off its launch, FF21 presented a symposium May 11-13 that brought some 300 researchers in biology, chemistry, engi-

neering, and economics together with industry leaders, and state and national policy makers to address world energy and food production sustainability. Event sponsors included Life Technologies, NEC, Sapphire Energy, Heliae, Agilent Technologies, CleanTECH San Diego, and The EDGE Initiative. Joanne Chory, director of the Plant Molecular and Cellular Biology Laboratory at the Salk Institute, presented findings on the biochemistry and genetics by which plants respond to the presence or absence of light. She also called for more support of fundamental research in plant development, environment tolerance, and adaptability. “Agriculture has been neglected over the

past several decades in terms of research funding,” Chory said. “We need more than a genome sequence. We need funding and a reward system for explaining the mechanisms underlying plant-life strategy.” When it comes to future of agriculture, weather and climate change are wild cards. “What will the planet look like in which you grow your crops?” asked Tony Haymet, director of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Climate-change models predict less frost days and more heat waves. California is an agricultural giant due, in no small measure, to the annual winter snow pack that fosters reliable irrigation through a steady melt later in the year. Even

if precipitation in California remains at current levels, a rise in temperature would mean more precipitation falling as rain and not as snow. Population dynamics are another factor driving food and fuel concerns. As families in developing countries have fewer children, they tend to switch to richer protein diets creating an increased demand for livestock. “Nobody eats cereal for 95 percent of their calories because they like to,” said Toni Voelker of Monsanto. Agriculture-based “green crude production” is expected to play a big role in addressing the world’s energy needs. “Algae is the best scalable production system in a land-water-and-carbon-constrained world,” said Gerardo V. Toledo, of Synthetic Genomics. That said, growing single-celled algae in shallow ponds on marginal lands will require biology-and-engineering-driven advances to drive down its currently prohibitively expensive cost. Starting in the mid-1900s research attention turned to Jatropha, a tree that produces apricot-size fruit with large seeds from which fuel oil can be extracted. Jatropha grows in hot, tropical regions, is drought tolerant, and can grow on marginal land (of which there are 2.5 billion acres in the world). Therefore, establishing jatropha orchards would not displace other agricultural crops.

Stravinsky’s ‘Firebird’ brings season home to roost From Symphony Reports The La Jolla Symphony & Chorus (LJS&C) will present its final concert of the 57th season “Stravinsky Circus!” with Music Director Steven Schick leading the orchestra in a program celebrating Stravinsky’s most popular work, “The Firebird.” The concert opens with the world premiere of Igor KorneiAleck Karis tchouk’s “Tintinnabulation,” and also includes Samuel Barber’s “Piano Concerto,” with guest soloist Aleck Karis. n Tintinnabulation. The title of Korneitchouk’s work, meaning the frenzied ringing of bells, comes from Edgar Allen Poe’s poem “The Bells.” The San Diego-based composer and professor of music at Mesa College uses no singers for the text. Rather, instruments convey the vibrant colors of Poe’s words. He evokes the different sorts of bells from the poem — such as the silver bells of sleighs, bronze bells signaling an alarm, funereal iron bells — frequently juxtaposing and interchanging them in a bi-partite fantasy. “Tintinnabulation” is a 2012 reworking of an earlier Korneitchouk score, “From the Bell,” written in the 1980s for brass and percussion octet. When conductor Schick, a celebrated percussionist, requested an overture-like work to open the concert, the choice seemed apt. By

The ballet, premiered in 1910, was one of the first of Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes to have a completely original score composed for it. Stravinsky himself was in attendance at the first performance, as were Claude Debussy, Sarah Bernhardt, and other artistic luminaries. In the years after the premiere, Stravinsky prepared a sequence of orchestral suites from the ballet, so that orchestras could perform the music without dancers. The first came in 1911, the second in 1919; a third in 1945. For this performance, the La Jolla Symphony will include two sections that the composer omitted from the 1919 suite: the “Berceuse” (lullaby) and the highly dramatic “Finale.”

All Hallows celebrates Fr. Jerry O’Donnell’s 40th anniversary

arishoners at All Hallows Catholic Church in La Jolla marked pastor Raymond Gerard “Jerry” O’Donnell’s 40th year in the priesthood with a reception attended by a few hundred people May 27 in the parish hall. Fr. O’Donnell was assigned to All Hallows Church in 1976 and served there until 1979. In 2006, he was named the church’s pastor and has been instrumental in finishing All Hallow’s Academy building and also improving the church’s facilities. When asked recently by eighthgraders at All Hallows Academy what he finds most fulfilling about being a priest, Fr. O’Donnell said: “The way in which people invite me into their lives to celebrate life’s peak moments — both joyful ones and the sorrowful ones. These are the holy moments where God’s presence is experienced, and I feel humbled and blessed to be asked to be a part of them.”

Pinter’s ‘The Lover’ and ‘The Dumb Waiter’ are lost in translation If you go ■ What: Two By Pinter: ‘The Lover’ and ‘The Dumb Waiter’ ■ When: Matinees, evenings through June 17

Let’s Review

By diana Saenger

orth Coast Repertory Theatre’s (NCRT) decision to take on “The Lover” and “The Dumb Waiter,” two one-acts by Nobel Prize-winning English playwright, director and actor Harold Pinter, was an ambitious move … and an ill-conceived one. What I enjoyed most about the production was watching the incredible design team (headed by Marty Burnett) change the entire setting from a lovely home living room into a dungy basement hideout during a short intermission break. That was fun. “The Lover” centers on a married couple who still love each other, but have taken

Richard (Mark Pinter) and Sarah ((Elaine Rivkin) get creative to liven up their marriage in Harold Pinter’s ‘The Lover,’ through June 17 at North Coast Rep. Theatre.

■ Website: northcoastrep.org on a bit of role-playing to spice things up. Richard (Mark Pinter — no relation to the playwright) is now two characters in the marriage — the adoring, faithful husband to Sarah (Elaine Rivkin) by day and night, her “lover” in the afternoon. The actors perform the roles well enough, but the subject — probably more apropos today than in the 1960s when it was written — could have been far more entertaining in many ways.

The dialogue, meant to be playful, becomes drab very quickly. The scenario loses its impact within 15 minutes, since nothing but sexual innuendos follows for the remainder of the show. Because of the brevity of the story, the audience knows nothing about the couple, so an understanding of how or why this situation arose is missing. It’s hard to care about Sarah and Richard or their method of marriage survival. Next, the audience must

do a complete 360-degrees about face moving into “The Dumb Waiter.” This production is about two thugs holed up in a dingy basement awaiting their next dangerous assignment — in this case a murder. Ben (Frank Corrado) seems to be the leader as he sits on a dumpy bunk reading an English newspaper. He hollers out loud when he reads what sounds like a preposterous story to Gus (Richard Baird). There’s arguing about Gus

Two thugs (Frank Corrado and Richard Baird) try to get along while awaiting orders to murder, in Harold Pinter’s ‘The Dumb Waiter.’ Photos by Aaron Rumley making tea, but there’s no propane. Gus is hungry but gives away the only food he brought when a dumbwaiter door between their beds fly opens and there’s a note describing food items. The conclusion the men come to when this happens over and over makes no sense. At first, Ben seems to know nothing about their assignment, but moments later, he reveals exactly what will happen when their victim shows up. Once again these

characters have nothing in common with the audience that is trying to find interest in their story. What creates another stumbling block are the English terms the characters throw out — Lorry, Kip, Crisps, Birk and Pong. Even though there’s a glossary in the program, even if a playgoer takes the time to read it, it’s doubtful the terms will be remembered. What little humor may be found in some of the lines falls like a deflated balloon.

Life-changing journeys take physicist from apathy to activist By Claire Discenza One day, years ago, physicist Francis Slakey found himself about to fall off the side of a mountain, attached to the rock by only a single piece of unraveling fabric. “I wait for the inevitable,” Slakey, reads from “To The Last Breath,” his newly published memoir. He tells those gathered at a booksigning event at UCSD May 16 how his adventures changed the way he looks at his life, the world, and science. Dr. Slakey, Upjon Lecturer on Physics and Public Policy at Georgetown University, and associate director of public affairs at the American Physical Society, happens to have an Earth-size adventurous streak. For him, the streak led to what he dubs “The Global Surf and Turf,” a mission to climb the tallest peak on every continent and surf every ocean. He said one of the seminal events of his life occurred while on one of these adventures. Slakey recounts the time he was returning from a climb in Indonesia, when military forces stopped him and his traveling companions. As it turned out, this wasn’t the first ambush in that location — two days earlier, another group of Americans were captured, but that group wasn’t so lucky. “Two Americans gunned down dead,” said Slakey. The incident surrounding the fatal Indonesian ambush was a mystery. No one knew who was responsible, and no one was investigating the event. “Before I could surf one more wave, before I could climb one more mountain, I had to see what I could do about the ambush,” Slakey said. He stepped in and wrote an op-ed column to the Washington Post imploring Congress to suspend all funding to the Indonesian military until an investigation could be conducted. His letter, along with a serious push from Patsy Spear, the lone survivor of the attack, convinced Congress. As a result, the perpetrators are now “rotting in an Indonesian prison,” Slakey reported. He relates other life-altering stories, including one from the slopes of Everest. While climbing the tallest mountain in the world, Slakey said he stopped in to a monastery to receive a blessing from a supposedly-300-year-old reincarnate Lama. On a whim, he decided to ask the ancient spirit for the meaning of life. “I ask my question, and the translator whispers it to the Lama, and then the Lama thinks, and he whispers back to the translator, and the translator says: ‘He’ll have to get back to you on that,’ ” Slakey recalled with a smile. But the Lama does get back to Slakey, giving him an amulet to wear around his neck with the meaning of life carved in an extinct Tibetan language. Slakey said he spent years searching for a translation of the message, a search that culminated in another life-altering moment while surfing the Arctic Ocean. “It suddenly hit me. I suddenly realized what the letters on the amulet meant, and

Francis Slakey, Ph.D. is the Upjohn Lecturer on Physics and Public Policy at Georgetown University. The founder and co-director of the Program on Science in the Public Interest, a Lemelson Associate of the Smithsonian Institution, and a MacArthur Scholar, Slakey has been profiled by NPR, National Geographic, and others, and his writing has appeared in The Washington Post, The New York Times, Slate, and Scientific American. Claire Discenza

no, I’m not going to tell you. You’re going to have to get the book to find out,” he teased the audience. Until his journeys opened his eyes to the real world, Slakey said he was “the classic physics professor — my back to the students, chalk in my hand. That was all science was to me. That’s all life was to me … analytic … detached.” Now through his work with the American Physical Society’s Panel of Public Affairs, he tackles what he considers to be some of the most pressing global challenges: climate change and energy policy. “Every glacier I have ever punched my crampon into is melting. So this map of mountains and oceans is actually a map of global challenges. The question is what to do?” Slakey said his answer is to change his teaching style. No longer does he emotionlessly write ancient formulas on a chalkboard. Now he leads students to take scientific principles and apply them toward solving real-world problems. “It’s been successful,” he said. “Since 2007, three student groups have had their ideas passed through Congress and signed into law by the president. “Here’s the point, science doesn’t just exist within the walls of the laboratory. When a sense of social purpose inspires a scientist, then science becomes the most powerful tool we have to build a better world.”

property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale. 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 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 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www. priorityposting.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, Trustee Sale Number 12-0040.
