By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) has righted what many in the community felt was a wrong course of action on AT&T’s proposed cell tower in Cliffridge Park. During the LJCPA’s June 5 meeting, more than 40 people (mostly parents of Torrey Pines Elementary School students) raised their hands to express opposition to an AT&T cell tower going in near the school, which would be the third at Cliffridge. In April, LJCPA trustees initially voted 7-6-1 to reject the cell tower, with the meeting’s acting president, Patrick Ahern, abstaining from the vote. However, during an ensuing debate about Robert’s Rules of Order, trustees and attendees discussed whether the parliamentary guidelines require a board president to vote when it would result in See Cell Tower, A16

SANDAG shifts trolley bridge location n Still others oppose trolley stop and parking garage at La Jolla Village Square By Pat Sherman Responding to complaints from the residents of Cape La Jolla Gardens (CLJG) condominiums, the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) has changed the location of a bridge

over Interstate 5 that would have brought the planned expansion of the San Diego Trolley line within a little more than 100 feet of the CLJG complex (read La Jolla Light’s series on this issue at bit.ly/trolleybridge). The decision, made during SANDAG’s May 9 board meeting, moves the bridge 360 feet north, to a position that was originally shown to and approved by UTC residents during a series of community forums in early summer 2013. It was moved southward toward CLJG in November

2013 at the behest of Mormon temple officials, SANDAG says, largely to prevent obscuring views of the temple as people drive north on I-5. Residents said the November switch was made with little public notice and no additional input. SANDAG’s $1.7 billion northward expansion of trolley service includes proposed stops at La Jolla Village Square Mall, the UC San Diego campus, VA Medical Center and UTC Westfield Mall.

TARNISHING OUR JEWEL

Sticky, Sloppy Bus Stop Have you noticed that the bus stop in front of the Jack in the Box is disgusting? Somebody spilled a shake or something weeks ago and a stain has been left on the sidewalk. There are cigarette butts, remnants of dipping sauces, plastic bottles, orange peels, etc. There’s a waste receptacle about four strides away, but some people obviously choose not to clean up after themselves. While we can’t change people’s behavior and their disregard for others, it seems to me that La Jolla, Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) or even, in this particular case, Jack in the Box, should make an effort to maintain the areas around the bus stop. I don’t think that La Jolla wants to leave an impression of fouled bus stops with its visitors nor its regular transit patrons. I appreciate whatever you can do to help with this issue. John R. Burns La Jolla

Road to Ruin?

s

In response to your Tarnishing the Jewel series, I would like to see attention paid to Coast Boulevard, which is in poor shape at several sites. Last month, the City of San Diego completely re-laid the road in front of the Museum of Contemporary Art and it looks wonderful. Why was that stretch done solo and not several blocks north and south of there? Can you find out? Ann Parode Dynes La Jolla

Editor’s Note: A call to Natalie at MTS Customer Service (619) 595-4908 (natalie.ven@sdmts.com) revealed that MTS considers the bench to be the property of an advertising company and the sidewalk in front of it, city domain. However, Natalie said she will investigate all bus stop or pole damage reports and welcomes inquiries. The Light next called the city to report the sticky situation and learned that the city considers it the job of the adjacent business to keep the sidewalk clean, per a provision in the Highway Code. The city said the bus stop area at 564 Pearl St., must be maintained by Jack in the Box. A third call, to Moe, the very sincere and frustrated new manager at Jack in the Box, revealed that he understands the responsibility, but is “too tired” to keep it up 24/7 because cleaning the area around the fast-food outlet becomes a fulltime job. Moe said, coincidentally, a meeting was planned for June 7 to discuss a solution to the problem. Stay tuned!

Three Parks and Beaches projects making headway By Ashley Mackin Three coastal improvement projects under the auspices of La Jolla Parks and Beaches (LJPB) were discussed at its May 19 meeting — the WindanSea S-Curve, Children’s Pool Walk Beautification, and Whale View Point. The final stage of the WindanSea S-Curve project and the first stage of the Children’s Pool Walk Beautification project each needed an initial assessment from the city’s Planning Division that required a $5,000 deposit. Landscape architect Jim Neri told La Jolla Light the Planning Division must assess the architectural drawings to determine the steps required to have the projects approved. For both projects, just half of the deposit was used for the assessment, so Friends of WindanSea and LJPB, the groups managing the S-Curve and Children’s Pool Walk projects respectively, will get the remaining money back. The “good news” from the assessment for Children’s Pool Walk (and for project organizer Phyllis Minick) is that the plans are classified as a See Parks & Beaches, A6

The WindanSea S-Curve project would fix the posts, chains and sidewalk gaps along Neptune Place. Ashley Mackin

From Graduates, A1 Recognized during Senior Awards night were Ram Prasad and Luis Galvan. Prasad was named the top Lincoln-Douglas style debater in the country. Over the last two years, Prasad competed in tournaments and debates across the country, earning trophies that can be seen in the school’s main office. Galvan is the recipient of the Gates Millennium award, a good-through-graduation scholarship bestowed to 1,000 students nationwide for the school of their choice. Aimed at developing “leaders for America’s future,” the scholarship also provides leadership development opportunities, mentoring and social support. Both Cao and Collins plan to attend Berkeley in the fall, and both claim to have learned a lesson about “time” at La Jolla High — Cao said he learned to manage his. “You need to balance academics with sports to get the most out of La Jolla High School, and stuff on the side, but also not pile on too much,” he said. Cao plans to study computer science and explore career options in the field. Collins added, “I learned here that the amount of study time you put in will indicate how well you do.” She said she feels prepared for college because she understands that sacrifice happens in the name of academic success. She is going to college without a declared major, but thinks she will study global medicine, and eventually practice medicine abroad. Additionally, Sam Schneider received the Brent Woodall Award, named for a standout LJHS athlete, who died during the 9/11 terrorist attacks in New York City. Schneider earned the award for his impressive baseball skills. He also played basketball for the Vikings. u

Parks and Beaches

From Parks & Beaches, A5 “replacement” project, and therefore are exempt from requiring a Coastal Development Permit and CEQA Environmental Impact Report (EIR). “Our worst fears have not been realized,” Neri said. “It improves our chances of having Children’s Pool Walk be part of the current lifeguard tower construction … and our chances (of finishing on schedule) are better.” One fee Neri said he is hoping to avoid is the city-imposed project management fee. With projects like this, he said, the city typically assigns a project manager, who would collect about 30 percent of the project cost. However, because LJPB and Minick are essentially managing the project, Neri said he’s hopeful that District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner will “go to bat for the project” and waive the need for a project manager and the costs associated with that. As soon as “all the boxes are checked” from the Planning Division assessment, Neri and Minick will apply for the next required assessment from the Department of Engineering.

Because the work takes place on a public right-of-way, the Department of Engineering must weigh in. Once that application is submitted, it takes two to three months to obtain a permit. The project would repair the sidewalk and improve the appearance of the area above Children’s Pool. To minimize cost and take advantage of closures and contractors already on site (for the tower work) construction would need to begin by mid-August. WindanSea S-Curve Neri said the application for the Planning Department assessment of the WindanSea S-Curve project was submitted at the same time as Children’s Pool, and is therefore at a similar phase of the process. The final phase of the S-Curve project was also classified as a “replacement” project and will not require an EIR or Coastal Development Permit, but must also go through the Department of Engineering. This final phase would replace the posts and chains that line Neptune Place and fill in the gaps where the sidewalk does not connect to the bluff area. It is the final phase of a project that previously installed donor benches along the bluff top, replaced or built beach access stairs at certain streets, and reconstructed the WindanSea parking lot. Neri said he also hopes the project management fee for this project will be waived due to Friends of WindanSea’s hands-on management of the project. Whale View Point Hoping to get the Whale View Point

Project started — which outlines improvement tasks for areas along Coast Boulevard including People’s Wall, Wedding Bowl and Wedding Lawn — Ann Dynes, head of the Whale View Point Project committee, began preliminary outreach to city departments to see from whom the committee would need to apply for permits. She determined that Streets Division has jurisdiction over the “boardwalk” area (anything on the sidewalk out to the center line of the street) and the Department of Park and Rec has jurisdiction over the grass and bluff areas. Dynes also discovered some possibly outdated information in the way the park is described, such as an area identified as an “emergency access point” that might not still be used for emergency access, but instead more often used for ADAcompliant access. To help consolidate notes and findings, the committee seeks a volunteer (or intern) to work with them. “We have pieces of information about the area scattered in books, e-mails, and maps, and are looking for a volunteer with a little historical curiosity, who can volunteer probably no more than about 20 hours of time, and has a good computer to type on,” Dynes said. For more information, hose interested can e-mail anndynes@ucsd.edu. u n La Jolla Parks and Beaches next meets 4 p.m. Monday, June 23 at the La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollaparksandbeaches.org

“Named national winner of the ‘Best of Home Care Award’ by Home Care Pulse.” Longtime La Jolla jeweler Karl Winchell vacated his space at 1123 Wall St. this month, shortly after San Diego Police launched an investigation of his business practices, which include multiple court cases filed claiming Winchell scammed customers out of their valuables and/or money. Pat Sherman

Jeweler accused of multiple scams closes shop on Wall Street n Police investigating claims, hope to prevent business from reopening in the Village By Pat Sherman One of the focuses of a La Jolla Light investigation into consignment stores, Karl Winchell of Winchell Jewelry Designs, closed shop this month, following the launch of a San Diego Police investigation into his business practices, including multiple claims that he scammed customers of jewelry and cash (read the Light’s story at bit.ly/jewelryclaims). Meryl Bernstein, a detective sergeant with San Diego Police’s Northern Division, said she sent a report outlining the claims of five alleged victims to the Economic Crimes division of the San Diego County District Attorney’s office for possible prosecution. “I know there are other victims out Karl Winchell there,” Bernstein said, noting she is concentrating her efforts on those with the most solid evidence against Winchell. “Unfortunately, our victims did not sign any kind of consignment contract; they were only given handwritten receipts like you would be given at a dry cleaners.” Although Bernstein said she does not know whether the DA’s office will open a case

against Winchell — due to the civil nature of most consignment transactions — she said it has expressed a strong, initial interest. Bernstein said she at first thought it would be difficult to prove criminal intent — since Winchell didn’t enter into official consignment contracts with his alleged victims — but the number of victims that have emerged makes it easier to do so. “I see a pattern, and the pattern is very similar,” she said. Several alleged victims have filed civil court cases against Winchell, including retired sheet metal worker James Hall, who won the maximum allowable judgment against Winchell in small claims court April 10. Hall, whom the Light interviewed for its earlier story, said he dropped off a diamond engagement ring at Winchell’s shop in May 2013 to be sold at consignment. He said Winchell never returned the ring nor paid him for it, only offering excuses each time he called the shop as to why the ring could not be returned, or why Hall could not be paid for it. Hall said the excuses included the ring being at an appraisal lab, being laser enhanced, on a national jewelry road show or misplaced. “I demanded my ring many times,” Hall told Judge Peter Doft in court April 10. “The delays kept coming. I became convinced that Karl never intended to return my ring, and would never pay me either. … Finally, (Winchell) told me he had the ring altered and sold for $16,000 and to just forget about it, because the lawyers would

It starts with our caregivers. We carefully screen nearly 25 applicants for each caregiver we hire. Only the best are good enough for Home Care Assistance! We follow this with extensive training. Finally we invite geriatric experts to meet with our caregivers so that they are up-to-date with the newest ideas about senior care. Hourly and Live-In Care. Our caregiving services focus on two basic types of care: hourly and live-in. The service you choose is determined by your particular needs. Hourly caregiving works well for many families. In this situation we provide trained caregivers on an hourly basis. Here the caregiver focuses all her attention exclusively on the senior. Live-in care differs from hourly care in that we provide personal aides on a daily basis. Live-in caregivers are often the best choice for those seniors who need the companionship of another person, but who do not have intense “all the time” personal needs. At Home Care Assistance we mean it when we talk about providing the best in senior care–whether it is on an hourly basis or a live-in basis. NEW!

From Trolley, A1 During the SANDAG board meeting, District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner (who represents La Jolla), advocated for the bridge shift. “It is unfortunate that we are here nearly a year later discussing an element of the project that was agreed upon by the surrounding neighborhoods and was believed to have been resolved long ago,” Lightner said, adding that the 360-foot southward shift was made “without any meaningful community input or outreach.” Lightner said the situation “could have been avoided, had the public’s business been conducted in an open and transparent manner.” SANDAG board member and County Supervisor Ron Roberts, who met with Mormon temple representatives prior to last summer’s public forums in UTC, maintained that SANDAG engineers found the southward shift toward CLJG to be in “an area where it had no significant impacts, but still had controversy.” Roberts eventually made the motion to return the bridge alignment to what community members were shown in summer 2013. Seconding Roberts’ motion, San Diego City Council President and SANDAG board member Todd Gloria added, “I think we know shifting the alignment after a public comment period has ended shouldn’t be taken as lightly as it was back in November.” Attorney Samuel Blick, representing La Jolla Village Square (LJVS) mall — just north of CLJG, where a proposed trolley stop is planned — said the shift would impact the

Courtesy of SANDAG mall by obscuring some of its signage. “We do need a parking structure, eventually (for signage),” Blick said. “(SANDAG) staff is working with us on that.” Additional opposition More recently, a group headed by Steve Arndt of Villas Mallorca complex (on Villa La Jolla Drive, directly east of LJVS mall) expressed opposition to the proposed trolley stop and parking garage at LJVS (at the Nobel Drive exit off I-5).

On May 29, Arndt sent a letter to Mayor Kevin Faulconer, Gloria and SANDAG, outlining the reasons for his group’s objection, including increased traffic congestion, earthquake hazards, visual and environmental pollution, and duplication of existing public transportation services at LJVS (such as the SuperLoop Bus Rapid Transit system). The letter requests that studies be presented to the public to justify how the parking structure (with an estimated price tag of $24.3 million) will not add to already

“extreme” traffic congestion in the area off the I-5 exit at Nobel Drive. “This parking structure is likely to be used by UCSD students, staff and faculty to avoid paying for parking on the campus,” Arndt writes. “If a UCSD parking structure is needed, this should be placed on the campus of UCSD.” In an e-mail to La Jolla Light, SANDAG spokesperson David Hicks said the agency has already compromised on the parking structure to meet local height requirements, changing the plans from a square, four-story structure of 1.4 acres to a rectangular, threestory structure of 2 acres. The three-story structure, as currently proposed, would contain 800 spaces, of which 260 are transit spaces and 540 are spaces needed to replace those lost at LJVS due to the trolley station and parking structure, Hicks said. Hicks said SANDAG has explored leasing some of the parking in LJVS’s underground garage and surface lots to avoid building its own garage, although mall representatives maintain that all existing parking is needed for the mall. u

Elder abuse suspect sneaked into facility where victim is recovering Crime NEWS Editor’s Note: Although the alleged perpetrator has been named in other news reports, La Jolla Light is refraining from using her name unless charges are filed against her.

hospital where they would do terrible things to him,” Redfield said her father recounted. “She also told him that she would be back — and that also set everybody on high alert.” Redfield said her father’s estranged wife was evicted from his home in the 6600 block of Avenida de las Pescas in April, via a court order. “Now it’s down to gathering her things,” Redfield said, of the woman, who filled the interior and exterior of the residence with

garbage and garden gnomes, and also kept numerous stray cats and dogs (several of which were found dead when police and animal control officers descended on the home in March). “She took all her good stuff and left the trash with us,” Redfield said, adding that the home has been held in a family trust since 1975, long before Redfield’s mother (Stella’s first wife) died. Redfield said there is still some legal red tape allowing her father’s estranged wife to

come and collect the rest of her belongings, although she said the family is “eager” to reclaim the house and clean up the property. Redfield said a judge gave her father’s estranged wife an agreed upon date to pick up her belongings, although “she never showed up and now is insisting that she can’t afford to pick up her things. … That’s what’s been stalling (the cleanup). “The laws are just unbelievable. ... She made it seem like she’s still got tons of things at the house.”

By Pat Sherman The estranged wife of 91-year-old La Jolla resident Robert Stella, who is accused of abusing and denying him food and water, was captured on camera sneaking into the residential care facility where Stella has been on the mend since March. The woman, who has not been charged with a crime, was captured on the facility’s surveillance camera April 5, walking onto the care facility premises in a wig and dark glasses, holding a pen, legal documents and vase of wilted roses to obscure her face, the family told La Jolla Light. The facility released footage of the woman’s visit to NBC 7 news last month. Stella’s daughter, Michelle Redfield, said her father was “badly shaken” and wasn’t sleeping at night after the 58-year-old woman approached him in the facility’s cafeteria. The family has since filed a restraining order against her. Redfield said her father told her his alleged abuser tried to get him to sign a will and another document appointing her as conservator of his legal affairs. “She threatened him that if he didn’t sign things over she would stick him in a

The 37-year-old bus driver was eastbound on Avenida de la Playa and started making a left turn onto Camino del Sol about 4:50 p.m., Officer David Stafford said. The bus hit a 47-year-old woman who had stepped into the street from the west side. She suffered a major leg injury and was taken to a hospital. Stafford said it appears the accident was the fault of the pedestrian, who was walking with a companion. An investigation is ongoing. — U-T San Diego

take more than the selling price.” Winchell told Judge Doft he hadn’t paid Hall because a customer was purchasing his ring on layaway, and because Hall allegedly made threats against him while protesting outside his store, after which Winchell said police advised him, “don’t confront this guy; don’t talk to him because he’s out of control.” “I have the money,” Winchell maintained in court, telling Judge Doft that he decided to let the court decide if and when he should pay Hall. La Jollan Nat Klein, a witness whom Hall met while protesting outside Winchell’s store, told Judge Doft that Winchell came up with a similar story as to why his mother’s bracelet also was never returned, and why Winchell never paid him for it. “I demanded my bracelet back and was told it had been sent to a broker in Chicago for a potential client (to view),” said Klein, who claims he was next told the broker left for vacation in South Africa after selling the bracelet. “I kept returning and finally Mr. Winchell said, ‘Well, the broker disconnected his phone and I’m not able to contact him, so that’s the end of it.’” Winchell responded: “Mr. Klein has a lawyer, I have a lawyer, and we’re going to be negotiating this in court,” although Klein maintained that he had only asked an attorney to send Winchell a letter demanding the ring or payment, which garnered no response. “All these other losses have all been taken care of,” Winchell told the judge. “They’ve all been paid. There’s only one that hasn’t been resolved and it’s in the process of being resolved now.” In the end, Judge Doft cited what he believed to be “a series of inconsistent,

evasive statements” by Winchell. “What’s going on here, to me, is that the ring has been stolen,” the judge said, awarding Hall $10,000 plus court costs. Bernstein said she also has “no doubt” that Winchell, who also is listed as a sex offender with California’s online registry, is “intentionally scamming certain victims.” “People don’t make up stories like this,” she said. “I feel sorry for these victims. They think this is a legitimate business because it’s in La Jolla.” People who believe they have been victims of consumer theft or fraud by Winchell Jewelry Designs can call Det. Sgt. Bernstein at (858) 552-1729. A sign left on Winchell’s former space at 1123 Wall St. states that he is in the process of relocating, and lists a phone number for customers to call “for all your repair or custom jewelry needs.” Contacted by the Light at this number, Winchell maintained he has been “settling with people,” although Hall told the Light last week he had not been paid by the court’s established deadline and will have to file further court documents to seek payment from Winchell’s assets, which include properties in east Solana Beach, Clairemont and near San Diego State University. When asked why he had not paid Hall when reached by phone last week, Winchell told the Light “They haven’t sent me any notice to pay him,” then he hung up when asked if Judge Doft hadn’t made his intention clear in court April 10. During a second phone call, Winchell said he was busy, and hung up again. Sources close to the Light say Winchell may be planning to reopen in a space on Prospect Street — but not if Bernstein has any say in the matter. “I want this guy out of La Jolla,” she said. “I would like to see him shut down, period … or behind bars.” u

By that time, trustee Bob Collins, who voted against the project, had left the meeting, creating a tie that was broken when Ahern voted in favor of the project. LJCPA’s new board president, Joe LaCava, although absent from the group’s April meeting, said he listened to a recording of the meeting and found problems with the way the votes were conducted. LJCPA trustee Fran Zimmerman, who made the original motion to deny the cell tower, said “all subsequent maneuvers on this subject” during the April meeting were “improper and beyond the pale of expectations for fairness” to which the LJCPA is bound. Parents concerned about the health effects of Electromagnetic Field (EMF) levels from cell towers — which the Federal Communications Commission prevents local governments from arguing against — also weren’t happy with the vote. Many said they hadn’t been adequately notified about the LJCPA’s April meeting or the project itself. “We believe anything other than your original vote against AT&T’s proposed tower next to our school is both unreasonable and potentially illegal,” parent Catherine Carron said. “You held a vote and the vote was clear, legitimate and proper … against AT&T.” Asked whether attendees wanted a new public hearing on the project during the

LJCPA’s July 3 meeting, several attendees said the date would be inconvenient, given its proximity to the July 4 holiday weekend. (LaCava said the AT&T representative wasn’t available to attend the June meeting.) Although several trustees preferred the full hearing in July, in the end the board voted 11-4-2 to revise the minutes from its April meeting to uphold trustees’ original vote to deny the project. The La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (whose members are appointed by the mayor, and which is the only other group in La Jolla with a voice on this project officially recognized by the city) will discuss the matter during its next public meeting, 9 a.m. June 17 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St.

hen Ron and Marg Bowers opened Bowers Jewelers on La Jolla’s Wall Street in 1945, they could never have known that their business would later become one of the longest standing retail landmarks in the community. But 65 years and a few blocks later in the heart of Girard Avenue, Bowers Jewelers, under the ownership of Larry and Sheila Combe is a thriving La Jolla business. Bowers’ history is one of family tradition and loyalty. Larry’s mother Adele once worked as a designer for the store. Larry later joined her as an employee until he purchased the business in 1981. Since then, he and wife Sheila of 39 years, have been the go-to for La Jollans when it comes to fine jewelry, unique trinkets, jewelry repairs and exceptional, personalized service. With an unparalleled selection, fine quality and real personality, the

family feel at Bowers is contagious. Patrons are encouraged to pull up a chair while they marvel at the many unique necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings and time pieces on the showroom floor. The folks at Bowers remain true to their customers and work tirelessly to provide quality products at fair prices. Boasting a highly qualified, passionate and friendly staff, Bowers keeps the tradition of old La Jolla alive and well.

city’s new bike-sharing program — to be implemented this summer — it’s clear La Jollans aren’t merely going along for the ride.During a presentation on the program, a partnership between the City of San Diego and the DecoBike company, LJCPA trustees and attendees expressed further discontent with aspects of the program, which involves installation of 14 solar-powered bicycle kiosks in La Jolla, and 180 citywide. Objections raised included the kiosks’ size and height, the loss of parking or sidewalk space to accommodate kiosks and that they will include advertising. “So they are in essence billboards,” said LJCPA member-at-large Cindy Greatrex. “I don’t think that’s something the community is aware of.” La Jolla Shores Association board Chair Tim Lucas said the program lacked strong, initial community review. “What we’re being asked is to say where we want these stations, rather than if we want these stations,” Lucas said. Earlier this year the city e-mailed a notice with photographs showing where each kiosk would be to about 6,800 La Jolla residents and business owners in the vicinity of the proposed sites, soliciting feedback on each one. “The last thing we want to do is take away parking,” said Linda Marabian, deputy director of the city’s Transportation Engineering Operations division, noting that the city is looking for more red curb areas to locate kiosks that would prevent the loss of public parking. Angela Landsberg, a consultant with DecoBike, said a committee of business owners and residents in downtown San Diego visited each of 75 proposed kiosk locations there, then compiled their feedback in a spreadsheet, indicating which stations it approved of, and suggesting

alternate sites for those it didn’t like. “Eighty percent of those suggested for relocation were relocated,” Landsberg said, urging La Jollans to undertake a similar effort. “We don’t mind going out and looking at it … but it takes a lot of time, effort and volunteer (hours) the community doesn’t have,” Don Schmidt said, noting that the kiosk proposed for the sidewalk in front of La Jolla Rec Center violates the community’s Planned District Ordinance. “It feels like we didn’t ask for this,” he said. Mike Costello asked whether the kiosks could be “restricted to private properties” and “left out of the public right of way,” while trustee Cynthia Bond suggested they be located in garages, and out of public view. “If you know a place where you would encourage a private property owner to take this on, we would like to know,” Landsberg said, adding that the city is “completely indemnified” from any liability for the program, yet stands to gain $2 million in revenue from bike-sharing for its general fund. Landsberg assured attendees that the number of kiosks in La Jolla is not set in stone, and that the stations can be easily relocated. In response to concerns that bike-sharing would cut into the business of shops that already rent bicycles, such as those in La Jolla Shores, Landsberg referenced a study showing that bicydle shops in the Florida cities were DecoBike already operates saw a 34 percent increase in bike sales. Ahern said he felt La Jolla’s participation in the program — willing or unwilling — was a fait accompli. “It’s going to happen, so we’re going to have to find better places (for the kiosks),” he said. The deadline to comment on the bikesharing program is July 1.

La Vita Pharmacy for personalized medicine at its best By Marti Gacioch Whether it’s an infant requiring a modified dose or a patient with gluten intolerance, La Vita Pharmacy is ready to serve their personalized medicine needs. Christine Givant, R.Ph., and Debra Hubers co-founded La Vita Pharmacy in 2007. The mission of their 99.9-percent compounding pharmacy is to help people live better, longer. Safety and quality are their top objectives. “We work with doctors and patients to specifically compound medications based on a patient’s individual needs,” Hubers said. “Doctors trust us because we’re accredited, and fewer than 1 percent of the pharmacies in the United States are; we’re proud to have an accredited, sterile clean room. “The old pharmaceutical industry used to do mostly all compounding where there was a triad of care with the doctor, pharmacist and patient working hand-in-hand to find a specific solution.” La Vita Pharmacy follows their lead by working with Scripps Hospital, Scripps Hospice and Pacific Pearl (Guarneri Integrative Health, Inc.), as well as individual doctors with patients going through menopause and andropause. La Vita also compounds prescription vitamin

that takes the form of transdermal gels, capsules, syrups, shampoos, lozenges, lotions, creams and pain creams,” Hubers said. “We want people in La Jolla who used Burns Pharmacy for their compounds before it closed to know that we provide the same personalized service for them,” Hubers said. Givant attended Drake University Pharmacy School and has managed both large and small pharmacies. She has compounded for 15 years and is an expert in her field. “We have complementary skill sets and started this company to focus on educating patients and supporting doctors,” Hubers said. “It’s really important to us that we empower patients to be the best consumers of healthcare that they can be and that they take responsibility for their health.” SBA named La Vita Pharmacy the top Women-Owned Business of the year in California in 2012. u

OPINION

OUR READERS WRITE

We’ll need underground parking for proposed Performing Arts Center Regarding plans for a new performance hall of the La Jolla Music Society (La Jolla Light, June 5), I find it hard to believe that parking will not be a problem. The article quotes artistic director Christopher Beach as saying “They did an exhaustive analysis [of parking]. They took a couple of Saturday nights and went around and counted the number of spaces in the Village. There were hundreds and hundreds of spaces within, say, 600 feet.” Having sometimes found parking difficult to find near Tapanade, I find this a gross exaggeration. My guess is that on Fay, Eads, Draper, Kline and upper Girard there might be 50 empty spaces on the streets. It’s true that there are approximately 160 spaces in the Vons parking lot; however the market, open until 1 a.m., does not share spaces with other businesses. The only solution that I foresee is the construction of extensive underground parking for the new facility. I hope this is under consideration. I have enjoyed many beautiful concerts presented by the organization’s predecessor, the La Jolla Chamber Music Society, where I served on the board of directors in the 1970s.

Request for early morning leash-free dog walks A special time for me and for my small dog is a stroll along a quiet beach from 7 to 7:30 each morning. My dog plays with other dogs, I chat with their owners, and we spend time cleaning up litter left by those less thoughtful. The beach is sometimes totally empty except for dog walkers and a few surfers if the surf is up. The first week of May my dog and I were ordered up onto the cliffs by the lifeguard who threatened a small group of us with a ticket for “anything he could think of” if we were seen on the beach again with our dogs leash-free — even if they were under total control. I am 74 years old and have never been threatened in such a manner and I have been worried about it ever since. So many citizens of La Jolla live in condos or apartments with no yards and have always enjoyed using our beaches for a very limited early morning time period. One morning last week when I went down to the beach alone (avoiding the sad look of my pup) I realized that trash from the Memorial Day weekend was still there and there were two men sleeping in the area. I am not advocating a leash-free beach area such as all of our other area beaches enjoy, as I realize that situation could possibly be difficult to control. However, since the city government has allocated an entire beach (which my children grew up using) for the seals 24/7, doesn’t it make sense to let dog owners have an hour during the early morning hours? Susan Wilson La Jolla

Not in favor of dogs running free on beaches Regarding the letter in the May 22 issue

about a leash-free period for dogs on La Jolla beaches, the writer says that available dog parks are “… nearly a 30-minute drive from WindanSea Beach.” There is no way that the dog park on Soledad Mountain Road is a half hour away from that beach. She obviously thinks that the current laws don’t apply to her, and so she gets to pay the fine. Unleashed dogs on the beaches are, and should be, prohibited. Thank you for considering my opinion.

Our La Jolla: For better ... or worse? My wife and I recently returned to La Jolla. We were both born here at Scripps Hospital many years ago on Prospect Street when it was just a driver and an iron from the Pacific Ocean. For those who remember his name, we were both delivered by Dr. Gillespie. We both attended La Jolla Elementary in kindergarten through second grade. My wife continued and graduated from La Jolla High. However, I left for Solana Beach and then San Diego where I graduated from San Diego High. We met again at San Diego State University as freshmen and were married in 1948. Our dear Village has changed since we were born here almost 90 years ago. About the only thing we remember that has not changed on Girard Avenue is the old Arcade Building, which runs from Girard to Prospect. As for the movie theaters, the La Paloma and Cove are gone. My grandfather, who arrived in 1919, owned a drugstore on Girard in what I believe is now an art gallery. We both have fond memories of La Jolla, but it has changed. Much of this is due to the arrival of the university, but, to be fair, growth and time is what has made the real change. Nevertheless, we are here and doing our best to be happy with what we two old curmudgeons have found. Fred Livingstone La Jolla

Drumming up awareness for Convention of States The federal bureaucracy in Washington is out of control with a rash of scandals and regulations without oversight and accountability. We have a failure of leadership and an oversized centralized government that have not been responsible to the voters. It’s also about time our leaders obey the Constitution — The Law Of The Land. Fortunately, the States possess the authority under Article V of the U.S. Constitution to reorganize the power structure and stop the spending spree and the power grabs by our government agencies and the Federal courts. Article V allows the States to call a convention to propose amendments to the Constitution with a single subject matter, “to Limit The Power and Jurisdiction of the Federal Government.” After two-thirds of the States agree, a convention will be convened to discuss, debate and vote only on amendments germane to the subject matter, without the President, Vice President, the Congress, the Governors or the Supreme Court involved in the process. The non-partisan Convention of States project will add amendments to the existing

Constitution to return many authoritative powers to the States and change the battleground from Washington to our local communities. Some subject matter examples: A Balanced Budget, Term Limits For Government Officials, Limits On Spending, Fair Tax, Redefinition of the Commerce Clause and the General Welfare Clause, and more. We are at a crossroads, as the existing path leads to escalating power, ultimately resulting in financial ruin. The Article V alternative leads to freedom and preserving our liberty. We Americans are tired of being ignored by our leaders, and I encourage citizens to contact their state legislators, friends and relatives about this project. Ultimately, it’s up to all of us, We The People, for this project to be successful. As a project volunteer, I am spreading the word in San Diego County with a non-partisan educational presentation titled “A Solution — As Big As The Problem.

Use property taxes to keep schools strong Should California’s poorest schoolchildren be the interest-free lenders of first resort to the state? I don’t think so, but they are. For the past 10 years, the state has been diverting the property taxes that were allocated to schools to cover the state’s other obligations. Most counties still report the property taxes are going to schools, even though they are not getting there. This violation of the public trust hurts our schools and our state. Currently, nearly $7 billion every year is diverted and this number is growing every year. You can visit yes4ed.org and see the tab ‘How This Affects Your Schools’ to see what is happening in our area. The news is not good for our children or our county. Please join me in asking the Gov. Jerry Brown and the legislature to let us vote on whether schools should have the same protections that cities, counties and other agencies (even mosquito abatement!) received in Prop 1A in 2004. Tell them that children need these local funds for their educations, and that these funds can’t be used as a piggy bank for the state. Without transparency and accountability we will never be able to get more resources to schools and rise above the bottom in the nation. A letter and a phone call from you will make a real difference and give children a voice. u Srinivasan Ramachandran UTC

An Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant ramp would also be added. Design of the project — about 35 percent complete — should be finished by the end of the year, project manager George Freilha said. Pending approval of site development and coastal development permits for the project (with an estimated cost of $180,000 to $200,000), construction should be complete by the end of 2015 — provided the project is granted a waiver for crews to work through the summer construction moratorium. The LJCPA voted to take no action on the project until it has been presented to the Bird Rock Community Council, and the LJCPA is presented with more detailed project plans. — Questions should be addressed to Freilha at gfriha@sandiego.gov n Going solar: City representatives also presented plans to install solar panels on top of the Bay View Reservoir deck, located at 9175 Parkview Terrace, just north of Kate Sessions Park on the southeast side of Mount Soledad. The panels are part of the city’s Climate Action Plan, which seeks to produce 50 percent of its energy via renewable sources by 2020 (it is currently at about 30 percent). The panels

would be located 10 inches off the roof deck, and only visible to homes along Parkview Terrace to the south, said public utilities project assistant Dirk Smith. The project costs $1.5 million to $2 million. Assistant city engineer Mohammad Rahman said his previous boss on the project (since retired) planned to have employees go door-to-door in the immediate vicinity of the reservoir to present the plans. “I think you’ve got the message to let the neighbors know about this,” LaCava said. “Although we appreciate the city going green … the no-surprise rule is always a good one.” n Candidates announce: During the meeting, two candidates — Cindy Greatrex and Mike Costello — said they were running for two vacant seats on the LJCPA board to be filled during a special election at the group’s July 3 meeting. A third candidate, Michael Morton, provided a statement, but did not attend. Greatrex, immediate past president of the La Jolla Town Council and the La Jolla Community Center’s board secretary, said she first gained experience in land use issues in 1992, when appointed Commissioner of Deeds for the state of New York (where she then resided) and during two terms as chair of the Zoning Board of Appeals for South Haven, New York (which she likened to the LJCPA in function).

Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. Polls are open 3-7 p.m. n Election challenge: LaCava said a challenge to the LJCPA’s March 6 annual election — dismissed by the LJCPA in April — has been submitted to the mayor’s office for independent review. The LJCPA will respond once it learns the outcome of the mayoral investigation, he said. n Cove restroom architect selected: LJCPA second vice-president Ahern announced Safdie Rabines Architects was selected last week to design replacement comfort stations for the “old beat-up restrooms” at La Jolla Cove. Nine architects submitted proposals for the job. The public will have a chance to offer input on the design during a future LJCPA meeting, Ahern said.

Sports Roundup: Several area athletes end winning seasons By Ed Piper n La Jolla Country Day’s Hadiyah Muhammad seemed to have soared into the stratosphere as she beat all other comers in triple-jumping 37 feet, 11.50 inches to win the event at the CIF Finals May 31 at Mt. Carmel High School. The graduating senior capped off her high school career with the personal-best hop, skip, and jump. She also played a key role in the Lady Torreys basketball team’s run to the state finals last winter. n Bishop’s School Lady Knight’s softball team, likewise, acted regally in advancing to the CIF Finals in Division IV by downing the High Tech High Storm, 111, May 24 in the second round, and then Santa Fe Christian Eagles, 6-0, May 29 to advance to the finals, where they lost to the Central High Spartans, 5-1, at the Santee Sportsplex the next night. “The girls showed the commitment, dedication, and effort from day one,” said Coach Art Schiele. “Without a doubt, they worked hard for what they wanted and they were willing to play seven tough innings every time we took the field.” Sabrina Straus and Sabrina Moreno each drove in two runs, with Moreno clubbing a home run, and sophomore Grace Young went all the way in fashioning a three-hitter to shut out the Eagles in the semifinal game. Third baseman Moreno, a junior, was almost unstoppable in the second round

Then, in the sixth inning, after moving from the mound to centerfield to switch places with reliever James Whelan, Holdgrafer walked, again with two outs, then advanced to second base on a wild pitch by stopper Jordan Pearce. But again, the Vikings could not move him around to score. In total, the black and red left 11 runners on base. La Jolla had another chance in the doubleelimination playoffs the next day, but fell to Eastlake, 10-5. u

La Jolla Youth Baseball sends 11 teams to Memorial Day tourney By Tom Murphy La Jolla Youth Baseball

Offer epir

La Jolla Youth Baseball sent 11 teams to the annual Memorial Day Tournament hosted by Tecolote Youth Baseball. This competitive all-star weekend is the perfect warm-up to the official PONY Tournament that kicks off June 19 in Ramona. All Star tournaments are double-elimination format so two games are guaranteed, no matter what level to which the team advances. In PONY baseball, teams start at their local section, move to Region and Super Region, and then Zone and World Series. LJYB has advanced teams to Zone on a few occasions in Bronco and Pony divisions, and a couple of Shetland teams have played in World Series pool play.

Although defeated by the Tec team, the La Jolla team showed everyone the meaning of heart, attitude and, ultimately, team spirit. Geoff Longenecker managed the team and was assisted by Aaron Roberts.

n The Bronco 12s opened the Memorial Day Tournament with a loss to Chula Vista South, the eventual tournament winner. They bounced back with a win over the Mad Dogs, then dropped their final game to a tough Tecolote Red team that was a tight pitchers dual through five innings. Tim Scott managed the team with help from Dave Hammel, Neill Hyytinen and Brian Canino.

n La Jolla’s Mustang Red team opened pool play with wins over North City Mix and Tecolote Blue. They entered bracket play as the No. 1 seed and eventually fell to their perennial nemesis Tecolote Red, who went on to win the tournament. Dave Klimkiewicz managed the team, assisted by Brad Kates. The La Jolla Mustang Blue team won the Silver Bracket. They entered bracket play with a 7-6 walk-off win over La Jolla 9s. Jack Boynton was clutch with a basesloaded double in the last inning. They played North City Mix and beat them 14-4. In the Championship Game against Tecolote Blue, they won 11-1 (ended by mercy rule). The team was led by Nicky Reynolds, Andrew Kassel and Manny Butler. The team was managed by Michael Solis & assisted by Mike Reynolds, Brian La Grange, and Chris Coleman. Mike Campagna managed the Mustang 9s team.

n La Jolla Bronco 11s started against a Presidio team of mostly 12-year-olds. The boys got behind early then staged a nice comeback that came up just short. On Sunday, the team play an unusual triple-header. After dropping the early game to Tecolote Blue, they faced them again two hours later, winning on the strength of a five-inning complete game pitching effort by Luke Brunette and top-to-bottom good hitting by the squad. Gavin Graff, Tyler Blackburn and Luke Roberts all hit well. Jeremy Epner, Willie Barton and Devin Bale also played topnotch defense throughout the tournament. In their third game on Sunday, the LJ 11s dug deep and played a solid Tecolote 11s squad. Though getting down early, the squad rallied to make the game close. Outstanding defensive efforts by Brunette, Peyton Wallace and Devin Longenecker, coupled with five strong innings pitched by Gavin Graff, kept the game close to the end.

n The Pinto 7s opened the tourney with a 19-18 heartbreaker to the Tecolote 7’s. The game featured a three-run inside-the-park HR by Henry Armstrong and great games at the plate from Hank Hansen, Cameron Ouyang, Logan MacLean and Santino Grasso. Their next game was a tough 22-12 loss to the Paradise Hills 8’s team. Highlights included two diving catches by Ryan Popkins and solid hitting from Finn Kjos, Cash McKeown, Levi Uslander, Ryan Landa and Landon Tu. The final game was a 22-18 loss to the LJ Pinto Blue team and featured solid hitting from Hansen (double and triple) and Armstrong, with a bases-loaded triple plus two more hits. Christopher Monnell made two nice plays in the field. Mac Armstrong managed the team. The Pinto Red team was managed by Rick Boynton and the Pinto Blue team by Bill Luetzow. Charles Hartford led the charge for the Shetland All Stars. u

Klutz in the kitchen? How-to author will offer cooking tips at talk

By Ashley Mackin Celebrity chef Ina Garten says stirring a pot of risotto at the end of the day with a glass of wine can be relaxing. Food Network personality Anne Burrell prefers tenderizing meat as a way of bringing joy to the cooking experience. Whatever your preference, author Kate Payne wants to see you in the kitchen, enjoying yourself. In her new book, “The Hip Girl’s Guide to the Kitchen,” she presents different projects for aspiring cooks and will speak about them at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 17 at Warwick’s Books, 7812 Girard Ave. One of Payne’s first projects was baking bread. “I’ve been gluten-free for eight years but because I was living in Austin (Texas) and had a salary, I didn’t mind buying the Kate Payne gluten-free bread.” But in 2008, she and her wife Jo Ann moved to New York, and that bread was suddenly $9 a loaf. “I thought, how hard could it be to make this myself?” she said. “That was really my introduction to the kitchen. My background is in anthropology and sociology, and working for nonprofits, so my culinary experience is fairly limited.” From there, in an effort to get the most from her entire grocery budget, she started making jams and pickles. A particular favorite, and something she plans to discuss at Warwick’s, is preserving vegetables through lacto-fermentation.

For the past 27 years, proceeds from this festival, produced by the Torrey Pines Kiwanis Club, were used to help San Diegans living with disabilities. To date, the Torrey Pines Kiwanis Foundation has raised more than $1.7 million to fund 30 adaptive sports, recreation and education programs throughout the county. “That’s what brought me to the club,” said its secretary/ treasurer Suzanne Sheridan. “What we do with the festival’s proceeds makes the event more meaningful; it has a larger, deeper impact than just going to an art fair.

Let Inga Tell You

Campaigning against robocalls

E

La Jolla Cultural Partners

very election, I conclude that robocalls are God’s way of punishing people who still have land lines. In 2010, eBay CEO and Republican Meg Whitman spent $140 million of her own money to run for California governor against Jerry Brown. $139 million of that was spent calling us. The money might have been better spent annoying someone else. I’m a Democrat. Olof has been a life-long Republican albeit disenchanted with his party for some time. We both vote across party lines. We’re also absentee voters and usually have our ballots in well in advance, so the 25 robocalls a day (yes, really) that we received prior to that election were totally wasted on us. Desperate to reduce future robocalls, I actually changed my party affiliation to Decline to State. I begged Olof to the do the same, as it was not lost on me that while both parties are incorrigible telephone harassers, the Republicans are the real robofelons. Sure enough, dumping the Dems has only reduced our robocalls by, at best, 25 percent. But Olof refuses to abandon his

affiliation, holding out hope that the party will regain its former glory. And as I love to say to Olof, good luck with that. (Smirks Olof: “Spoken by a woman who spent her entire career in a university welfare environment where firing someone for cause would be considered ‘mean.’ ”) My favorite robocall was on May 22 from local Republican Party chairman Tony Krvaric exhorting us to ignore all other Republican robocalls and fliers we had received for this open primary and vote only according to the Official Republican Voting Guide that was mailed to us. I love it when they eat their own. At the end, he says “Thank you for being great Republicans!” Sorry, Tony. We’re your worst fear. I even registered us for a site where one can opt out of political calls for a year at a time. Like that worked. I fear I gave our phone number to the only two political agencies that didn’t already have it. Here’s the puzzling part of it all though: As I understand it, the TCPA (Telephone Consumer Protection Act), allows “auto dialing” calls to landlines but prohibits them to cell phones without prior express

consent. (Like anyone’s going to sign up sticking pins into Meg Whitman dolls by for robocalls to their mobile.) election time.

A rising star on New York City’s jazz scene, late last year Aldana became the first female instrumentalist to win the prestigious Thelonious Monk International Saxophone Competition. The Washington Post wrote, “Aldana embodies a new sense of possibility and direction in jazz.” The Boston Globe wrote, “Aldana and the Crash Trio moved through alternating sections of Afro-Latin grooves, straight-ahead swing, and out-of-tempo exploration…every solo felt personal—in the way an abstract run would break for an aside of funky riffs, or in the way Aldana would climb to the top of her altissimo and stay there, holding a final note on a softly fading vibrato.”

Opa! Athens Market Café says go Greek, it’s good! By Kelley Carlson fter growing up learning the family business, Vickie Anastasopoulos stayed true to her roots and branched out with her own restaurant in San Diego. She and her husband, Nick, opened Athens Market Café in Carmel Mountain Ranch — a sister restaurant to her sister Mary’s downtown San Diego location. At her Athens Market site, Vickie serves as chef, using the culinary skills she developed and honed at her parents’ hotel and restaurant in the village of Levidi, Greece. “She’s the brains behind the cooking,” Nick proudly emphasized. Nick aids in the operation of the restaurant, which was named a Small Business of the Year in California in 2011. He enjoys putting customers at ease — getting to know many of them by name — and occasionally breaks out in spontaneous Greek dancing alongside the staff. Patrons relish the authentic food that’s made from scratch, served in a charmingyet-casual atmosphere, as evidenced by readers’ polls in publications over the years. One of the most popular items is the Saganaki. Brandy is poured over imported

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured ‘On The Menu’ restaurant at www.bit.ly / menurecipes

n This week’s recipe:

Athens Market Café’s Moussaka

Greek cheese, which is then flambéed at the table, often drawing oohs and ahhs. Afterward, the melted cheese is cut into pieces and wrapped in pita slices. Other traditional starters that garner requests include the Spanakopita, a flaky filo pastry that’s filled with spinach, feta, herbs and spices; and Souvlaki, with pieces of chicken breast or beef tenderloin alternating with colorful grilled vegetables on a stick, kebab-style.

Guests who seek light, traditional fare will discover several salad offerings. Among them is the village-style Horiatiki Salad, with tomatoes, cucumbers, feta, olives, red onions, bell peppers, oregano and olive oil; and the Tabouleh Salad, a mixture of parsley, bulgur wheat, tomatoes, red onions, mint, lemon juice and olive oil. There are also pita wraps such as gyros, which are stuffed with beef and lamb or chicken, along with tomatoes, cucumbers,

onions, and cool-and-creamy tzatziki sauce. There are heavier, meat-based entrees, as well. The Pastitso is the Greek version of lasagna, a casserole-type dish with penne pasta and ground beef that has been seasoned and slowly simmered, while the Makaronada is a thick pasta topped with sautéed vegetables and grilled chicken. The Lamb Chops are prepared with the “right combination” of garlic, olive oil, oregano and other “secret” ingredients that involve Greek herbs and seasonings, Nick says. Another favorite dish of customers is the Moussaka, a baked dish of eggplant, zucchini and beef that is topped with béchamel sauce. It can be paired with a side of lentil soup, consisting of legumes simmered with tomatoes, onions, garlic and spices that create a flavorful, reddish-brown broth. Homemade desserts range from baklava to rice pudding. To further the ethnic experience, patrons can order imported bottled Greek beers (including the straw-colored lager Mythos) and wines (among them the Kourtaki Retsina of Attica, which has a pine aroma), or even Greek coffee. u

Let’s Review Diana Saenger

General has fun fighting foibles in ‘Faded Glory’

T

ales from the Civil War are rarely amusing. However, playwright Tim Burns’ “Faded Glory” finds huge hilarity and humor in retelling the story of one colorful old soldier — General Daniel Sickles. The delightful drama, based on the life of a long-forgotten figure has its world premiere on the North Coast Repertory stage through June 22. The curtain rises on stacks of old papers and a bright Civil War uniform, which fill the home of the retired general, a military hero who’s had his Congressional Medal of Honor rescinded. What did Sickles do to have that happen? Maybe what he didn’t do is easier to answer. As he prepares to have an official portrait painted, the audience learns he’s been quite the scoundrel in his lifetime — a murderer, philanderer, Congressman, embezzler, and lover of Queen Isabella of Spain … among other things. Actor Andrew Barnicle is stunning as Sickles, who is stuck in a wheelchair because his leg was shot off in the Battle of Gettysburg. He’s a tough old curmudgeon who spends a lot of time hollering at this caregiver/confidant, Eleanor (Shana Wride).

Sickles whines about his inabilities, and the injustices he believes he’s suffered, only to become even more upset when his romantic gestures to Eleanor always end up rebuffed. Wride is priceless as Eleanor. She is not only a boxing-ring match for Sickles’ verbal abuses, but his physical advances as well. Wride infuses Eleanor’s rich dialogue with just the right amount of humor and sarcasm, drawing laughter from the audience at most every line. Theater always loves a few drunks, so Ben Cole (as Frank Butler) and Bruce Turk (as actor John Barrymore) are clearly assets when they sneak through Sickles’ bedroom window and fall face-first on the floor. Sickles wakes to see his old friends, and begins a long conversation with Barrymore about his acting career. The thespian flounders all over the room looking for more liquor and making disparaging comments about his craft. When he finds a most unusual object that just might contain a few drops of alcohol, we see to what lows his lushness has sunk. Yet, Turk is a blast as Barrymore. Things only intensify when Sickles’ estranged wife Condesa (the handmaid of

General Daniel Sickles (Andrew Barnicle) finds himself confronted by two sassy females (Shana Wride and Frances Anita Rivera) in ‘Faded Glory’ at North Coast Repertory Theatre. Aaron Rumley his former lover, Queen Isabella of Spain) shows up after 30-some years and demands they reunite. Frances Anita Rivera plays both the Queen and Condesa — each women holding a pivotal secret that centers on Sickle. NCRT’s Artistic Director David Ellenstein is a pro at picking the productions just right for his theater, and he’s done a great job in directing this one with all its fussing and frivolity.

Burn’s dialogue is masterful in advancing the story and revealing the characters. “Faded Glory” should not be missed and ought to be Broadway-bound, according to the opening night audience. n IF YOU GO: “Faded Glory” plays matinees, evenings through June 22 at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach.

analogy between chemical elements and personal relations. Like gamboling molecules that can bond to form new compounds, people in Goethe’s novel hook up in interesting ways to form new types of relationships with varied outcomes. So too, the MFA students, who have lived and worked together in close quarters for the past three years, have interacted and influenced each other. The exhibition itself is not a particularly spectacular visual display, although there

are paintings, drawings, photographs, videos and installations — including a large bed of nails in the middle of the gallery that you must precariously navigate. Behind the works, it is the thought, which the curators call a “curiosity cabinet,” that is most intriguing, not their visual appeal. Paloma Checa-Gismero and Nomi Brynjolson curated the show. Checa-Gismero is from Madrid. Previously, she worked as a guest researcher at UC Berkeley examining Latin American conceptual art of the 1960s. Brynjolson is from Winnipeg, Canada, with an interest in public art. “All of these artists shared a common community space these last three years. They have learned to collaborate and live with their differences,” said Checa-Gismero. “That is what this show is about … their affinities … how they have touched each other in ways artistic and personal.”

Aitor Lajarin hails from Eskoriatza in Basque Country, Spain. He earned his B.A. from the University of Basque Country in Bilbao and came to this country on a Spanish art grant to study the city of Los Angeles, specifically its urban sprawl. He ended up making an animated documentary called “Post City.” Faculty member Rueben Ortiz noticed his work and invited Lajarin to join the UCSD MFA program. He has three small paintings of acrylic on wood in the show, which he said are like pages from his artist’s notebook where he puts together ideas for larger projects and pieces. One of the paintings, “To hit or not to hit?” was inspired by Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.” A collection of objects are stacked one on top of each other with the bottom object being a pool ball about to be struck with a cue stick. “One small

action and many things will come tumbling down,” Lajarin explained. Kate Clark is from Puget Sound in Washington state. She attended Pont Avec School of Contemporary Art at Evergreen State College in Olympia prior to UCSD. Clark is exhibiting two large etchings of the great Seal of America that adorn the corridor where pedestrians enter into the USA at the Tijuana border. There is also a video of her at work, dressed in a white lab coat, making the etchings as hundreds of people pass by on their way into the United States. Clark had to get permission to make the etchings and film her work from Customs and Border Protection. “I’m interested in the image of the American Seal and how it has changed from when it originated at the founding of our country,” she said. “I see myself as an archaeologist or forensic anthropologist uncovering an artifact

from a noteworthy site — here the changing Border — which is like a Berlin Wall in our own backyard. I would like to see the image I have etched live on in different ways, such as on tablecloths.” Clark is also doing an artistic study of San Clemente Canyon along Highway 52 as it leads into La Jolla. She plans to work with Parks & Rec and have a drive-in movie of her findings in the canyon parking lot next November. “San Clemente Canyon was created by an uplifting of the San Andreas Fault. The land and rocks in the canyon are really Mexican land that was transported by geological processes up from Sonora,” she noted. Danny Cannizzaro is from Seal Beach. He was an undergraduate at Brown University in Providence, and came to UCSD because, “they don’t separate the digital artists off, like at many other art schools.” Cannizzaro has been working with

They are collaborating on an interactive iPad novella, “Pry,” which will be available at the Apple app store soon for a nominal fee. “Pry” is the story of Gulf War veteran who works as a demolitions expert and his relationship with his memories. “There isn’t the stigma of self publication when it comes to E-books,” Cannizzaro said.

Noland has attended the event for the past two years as part of his research into the folk traditions of rattlesnakes. “In the Civil War-era, army doctors used to treat rattlesnake bites by giving patients two pints of brandy as a cure. Of course, it was just about the worse thing to do,” Noland said. “Nowadays, it could cost you $60,000-80,000 if you are bitten by a rattlesnake and he gives you a full load of venom. You might be lucky and get a ‘dry bite,’ with no venom injected, and you’d be OK. Otherwise, you might need up to 23 vials of anti-venom at $2,000 a pop!” u n IF YOU GO: Admission is free.

Many of my ocean images are refreshingly abstract while others have a classic, timeless appeal. I’ll be exhibiting my latest fine art collection, taken over the past eight months. The majority of my images were taken while swimming off the shoreline of La Jolla. “My goal is to shoot photographs of the

programs funded by the festival are the water sports camps for kids in wheelchairs. The camps mean so much to so many!” This year, more than 200 West-Coast artists have passed through a rigorous jury process to win the chance to showcase their work in painting, sculpture, photography, glass, jewelry, ceramics, wood, fiber and mixed media. Two standout La Jolla artists exhibiting are jewelry designer Mitzi Howard and photographer John Maher. Howard is a second-time exhibitor who creates one-of-a-kind wearable art by braiding, stringing, wire-wrapping and crocheting materials, combining them with fine glass and gemstone beads. (See samples at lajollarocksjewels.com) “I started making jewelry several years ago when I could not find bold jewelry items created with high quality natural gemstones and fine metals that I wanted to wear,” Howard blogs about her designs. “In my studio atop Mt. Soledad, I use only the finest available gemstone beads, cultured pearls, metallic fibers, artisan dichoroic glass, Argentium silver, sterling silver, 14/20 gold-filled and 14kt gold to create my (mostly) one-of-a-kind designs.” Maher is a newcomer to the festival and a third-generation La Jollan. Before deciding to pursue photography, he was a sponsored surfer for top industry brands like Rusty, Reef and Rip Curl. His surfing experience has enlightened him with a deep appreciation of the ocean landscape, which is reflected in his aquatic photos. (See some

Swimmers take to the waves to raise funds for veterans By Ashley Mackin A group of 12 San Diegans plan to swim from Catalina Island to La Jolla Cove in August as a fundraiser for the Warrior Foundation Freedom Station, and 10 of them held a practice night swim in La Jolla recently. During the May 14 night swim, the group — which calls themselves Beyond Avalon — swam from the Cove to the Marine Room and back, with glowsticks pinned to their swimsuits to they could see each other. “The plan is to get some night swims in because it will probably take us 36 hours to swim from Catalina to La Jolla (including some night hours),” said Beyond Avalon spokesperson Will Miller. Swimming in relay, they will leave Catalina Aug. 22 and arrive in San Diego Aug. 24. Asked why someone would want to embark on such a challenge, Beyond Avalon swimmer and La Jolla High School graduate Penny Nagel replied, “Why do people climb Mount Everest?” Miller and fellow swimmer Lee Grove talked about doing the swim to test their own skills, but when others expressed interest in joining them, they decided to make the event a fundraiser for charity. “We all have had friends in the military and thought (something that benefits) the military would be a great cause,” Miller said. “We all appreciate the sacrifices that veterans and their families have made, and this is just a small price to pay to repay them.” In researching organizations that support veterans, they found Warrior Foundation

Patches of Purple

Village Garden Club salutes donors to jacaranda tree project By Ashley Mackin f you’ve ever driven past a jacaranda tree blooming with purple flowers throughout La Jolla and San Diego, odds are it was one of the 2,200 planted by the Village Garden Club of La Jolla since its inception in 1986. On June 4, members of the Village Garden Club gathered at Kate Sessions Park to publicly recognize the donors who make it possible for the club to purchase, plant and care for the trees. Those recognized donated money in someone’s memory or in honor of an anniversary, graduation or birthday. The person for whom the money was donated was also acknowledged. The club presented a certificate of appreciation to City of San Diego grounds maintenance worker Angelo Sabina, who plants and maintains the trees. The two most recent plantings are at Kate Sessions Park and had their first blooms just in time for the ceremony. Because they flower in May, June and July, jacaranda trees were selected by club members to help brighten up the “May gray” and “June gloom” in San Diego. The jacaranda was designated as the official tree of the City of San Diego in 2000. Citing this year as their best yet, the club received almost 300 trees from May 2013 to April 2014. At the last minute, the club also received a donation of three trees in honor of the late Padres announcer Jerry Coleman, one of many donations in Coleman’s memory. Donations for a jacaranda tree start at $50, which the club takes and adds to an

La Jolla Shores gathering celebrates surfing dog, book deal By Ashley Mackin bout 100 people met at La Jolla Shores June 8 to celebrate the publication of “Ricochet: Riding a Wave of Hope with the Dog Who Inspires Millions,” the story of a surfing dog and those whose lives she has touched. The event doubled as a memorial service for Caleb Acosta, 15, who lost his battle with brain cancer in late March, and many of those that attended participated in a memorial “paddle-out.” Ricochet’s owner and trainer Judy Fridono of Escondido calls her a “Surf-ice dog,” because she surfs with those with mental and physical disabilities as a therapeutic aid. “Ricochet has an incredible sense of intuition, she just knows what people need, even if the person doesn’t,” Fridono said. “There is something about her, she can adjust the way she surfs based on the surfers needs.” Fridono noticed Ricochet’s ability in 2009 while out surfing with a young man named Patrick Ivison, who attended the Shores event with his service dog, Kona. Using adaptive surfing gear – required because Ivison suffered a spinal cord injury when he was just over a year old, leaving him paralyzed — Ivison and Ricochet were surfing on their own boards, when Ricochet did something unusual. “At some point, Ricochet jumped off her board and onto Patrick’s,” she said, and Ricochet put at least one paw, if not both, on either side of Ivison, caging him so he wouldn’t fall off. “It was her decision, so I just went with it,” Fridono said. “She’s been doing that for five years now, and she has surfed with people with all kinds of disabilities.” In many cases, Ricochet will move as needed to counterbalance the board. Recently, Ricochet surfed with Caleb Acosta from Apopka, Florida. Fighting through stage four glioblastoma (brain cancer), Caleb was offered a wish through the Make-A-Wish foundation. Caleb’s mother, Cathy Franco, said, “My sister actually saw a video of Ricochet surfing with paralyzed kids and sent it to my son. When he saw it, his eyes lit up and he said ‘I want to do that’ and it worked out. Make-a-wish flew us out to Los Angeles and we drove down to Del Mar and he surfed with Ricochet.” She added that her son – who had never surfed before – called that day “the ride of his life.” She said, “That day made him feel normal again, gave him the balance he so missed and it changed his life. Ricochet and all these amazing people (that assist in surfing

Fridono explained Ricochet was born to be a service dog, but at 16 weeks old, lost interest in training. “She would chase birds and critters and run off,” she said. So Fridono entered Ricochet in the Purina Incredible Dog Challenge when she was 15 months old and she won third place in the surfing category. After videos of Ricochet surfing with children of different abilities frequently went viral, Fridono was approached with an offer to turn Ricochet’s story into a book. Not being a writer, she declined. But when Health Communication, Inc. Publishing, the house behind the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series, offered to publish the book with the help of a ghostwriter, she accepted. The book came out June 3 and is available on amazon.com and at bookstores such as Warwick’s. More information at SurfDogRicochet.com u

LOCAL HISTORY

Scientists honored by street names in La Jolla By Linda Pequegnat n this date in La Jolla history — May 22, 1900 — a sweeping change was made in the street names of La Jolla. Most of the original streets were named in the 1880s by the developers of La Jolla — Frank T. Botsford and George W. Heald. The Botsfords had lived in New York City and so they named some of La Jolla’s streets after streets in New York. These have retained their original names: Wall Street, Exchange Place, Park Place and Pearl Street. When city fathers decided to change the names of many other La Jolla streets, they followed the same alphabetical pattern that was used in other parts of San Diego, such as alphabetical names of gemstones in Pacific Beach, alphabetical names of trees going north from downtown San Diego, and alphabetical names of authors and poets in Point Loma. In La Jolla, they resolved to give streets the names of famous scientists in alphabetical order. The following street names were changed on May 22, 1900: n Cuvier Street, formerly Palm Street, was named after Baron Georges Leopold Cuvier (1769-1832), a French naturalist who founded the science of comparative anatomy. n Draper Avenue, formerly Orange Street, was named for John William Draper (1811-1882), an American chemist and physiologist. n Eads Avenue, formerly Washington Street, was named for James Buchanan Eads (1820-87), an American engineer who built a bridge over the Mississippi River in St. Louis. n Fay Avenue, formerly New York Street, was named for Theodore Sedgwick Fay (1807-98), an American author. n Girard Avenue, formerly Grand Avenue, was named for Charles Frederick Girard (1822-1895), an American naturalist and zoologist. n Herschel Avenue, formerly Lincoln Street, was named for Sir William Herschel (1738-1822), a German astronomer who lived in England and who discovered the planet Uranus. u

Diamonds: emotional and financial Gain As one of the most concentrated forms of wealth on the planet, diamonds make an excellent investment. While precious metals like platinum and gold also have intrinsic value as investments, they are much bulkier and harder to store, requiring the serious investor to maintain a very large safe. On the other hand, a million dollars’ worth of diamonds is small enough to fit in your shirt pocket. This element of portability makes investing in diamonds completely private, as no one has to know how many diamonds you own. The allure of diamonds, however, is not purely financial. Diamonds are associated with love and beauty, and have long been the symbol of matrimony. The diamond engagement ring is one of the most important purchases a couple will

share. Larger and Colored Diamonds Larger diamonds, for example, three carats and over, are considered rare and have always been sought after, in part, for their exclusivity. Larger diamonds that have a unique color, such as Fancy Yellow or Pink, are even more desired and carry a high premium. As a financial investment, larger and colored diamonds have more than doubled since 2007. Currently, these stones are commanding record prices at auction. At a 2014 Sotheby’s auction in Geneva, a record-breaking seven jewelry items set world-record prices. The Graff Vivid Yellow 100.09 carat diamond ring sold for over $16M, which was an auction record for a yellow diamond. At this same auction, a marquise-shaped Very Fancy Pink diamond weighing 12.07 carats outsold its pre-auction estimate, selling for almost $7.3M and setting a world record for price-per-carat for a Fancy Pink diamond (Sotheby’s Geneva, May 2014). Increasing Value The value of diamonds continues to increase from year to year. One reason for this increase is inflation. It’s simply easier to print more paper than to mine more diamonds. Supply and demand also figure into the steady

increase in the price of diamonds. No new major diamond mines have been developed since the 1990s, and today there are only 30 major diamond mines in existence. The diamond supply in these mines are being depleted, and diamond production is estimated to decline by 1.9% a year by 2019 (Bain & Company, Global Diamond Report, 2013). The growth of the Asian markets is also pushing the price of diamonds. Asia made up 8% of the diamond-buying market in 2000 and 13% in 2014, and by 2017 Asia is projected to make up 18% of the total diamond-buying market. In particular, India is a growing consumer of diamonds because of a blossoming middle class. With approximately 500 million new middle-class citizens by 2019 and with the trend in these areas shifting from plain gold wedding rings toward diamond engagement and wedding rings, the potential for new diamond buyers is exploding (Bain & Company, Global Diamond Report, 2013). Return on Investment While the price of diamonds continues to rise steadily, investing in diamonds is not a get-richquick scheme. Sales tax and high transaction costs can take a long time to recoup. However, there are times when diamond prices skyrocket, such as in times of economic instability when people want to

invest their money into something tangible. In times of adversity, diamonds are portable wealth that can be stashed away for a rainy day. Although the diamond market will likely remain balanced through 2017, demand is expected to exceed supply from 2018 to 2023, supporting a long-term investment strategy in the diamond industry (Bain & Company, Global Diamond Report, 2013). Financial and Emotional Investment Investing in diamonds can diversify a portfolio, allocating funds outside of traditional securities. Diamonds offer an excellent investment opportunity with the potential for an increasing return on investment, but they are more than just a commodity. Every diamond is an exclusive and beautiful gem, one that reflects the owner’s personal style. Unlike other forms of investment, diamonds are meant to be worn and enjoyed. Furthermore, diamonds can be handed down as a family heirloom so that future generations can continue to experience their inherent beauty— something that, in itself, makes for a worthwhile investment.

Things I’ve heard through the grapevine “Beulah, peel me a grape.” — Mae West

P 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. The La Jolla Community Foundation (LJCF) was created to enrich the environmental, social and cultural experience of La Jolla. So far, we have funded the fire pits along the Shores, commissioned world-class murals around town, repaired the “Teardrop” entrance on La Jolla Parkway, created educational coastal signage, and are now developing a plan to maintain the Village on an ongoing basis. Membership is open to all La Jollans who care. Join the LJCF and have a voice in selecting annual grant recipients – making a difference here, at home, where you live. Please join us. Annual local projects will receive 75% of your contribution and the other remaining 25% will go into a permanent endowment.

lump, juicy grapes in rich royal jewel tones have invaded supermarket aisles and farmers market stands, piled high in luscious mounds. When you pop a cold one in your mouth, the sweet juices burst into thirst-quenching ambrosia. A Methuselah fruit, grapes have been hanging around for more than 8,000 years. They were first cultivated domestically in the Near East, where the craft of winemaking seems to have developed as a natural progression of cultivation. Enjoy this botanical berry at its peak this summer.

Cabernet for the Cure Grapes, especially the red, purple and black varieties are loaded with antioxidants called bioflavonoids that pack a powerful anti-cancer punch. Grape skin, a rich source of resveratro synonymous with wine, has been found to put the skids on enzymes that stimulate cancer cell growth. Drinking more than one glass of wine a day, on the other hand, has been linked to increasing breast cancer risk. So swap that second glass of Merlot for some fresh concords or a swig of grape juice. Resveratrol has also been linked to longevity by the activation of three anti-aging genes. Just one handful of grapes a day will pump iron into your blood, Vitamin C and other antioxidants into your immune system, a load of fiber into your intestines to keep your constitution regular. A mother lode of Vitamin A and lutein grapes will boost ocular health. The noble berry is packed with folate, potassium and anti-inflammatory quercetin to ward off free radicals and reduce the risk of heart disease.

America roughly three centuries ago. n There are some 8,000 varieties of grapes worldwide with 60 species, primarily American and European. n One cup of grapes is a mere 100 calories. n 2.5 pounds (or 600 to 800 wine grapes) yield one bottle of wine. n 10 percent of U.S. grapes are grown organically. n 72 million tons of grapes are grown around the world, with 300,000 tons in California alone. My cup runneth over as the majority of these grapes (71 percent) are used to produce wine — more than 7.2 trillion gallons.

Branching Out This season try expanding your grape horizons beyond the pedestrian Thompson green seedless. Grape up with small, sweet and crunchy vibrantly violet Black Corinths, aka Champagne grapes. Try a bunch of large, dark purple ellipsoidal Autumn Royals. Sample sweet, thickskinned Emperors with cherry nuances. Silky Bronx grapes are reminiscent of muscats. Bright red, crunchy Cardinals, are a cross between the sweet-tart Red Flames and bitter-skinned, sweet-fleshed Ribiers. How about trying the crisp, juicy green Perlettes with a frosty coating?

Seedy Side of Grapes Conventionally grown grapes appear on the notorious “Dirty Dozen” list of the most heavily pesticide-laced crops. A single sample tested had contained 15 pesticides. Standing advice — buy organic.

Thanks a Bunch These flavorful refreshers, whether black, red, purple, green, yellow or pink make great snacks, especially exhilarating when frozen. They pair well with cheese platters, chicken, seafood, fruit or Waldorf salads, and turkey wraps. You can toss them in with Brussels sprouts, noodle stir-fries, taboulehs, grilled duck or wild caught salmon dishes. Blend in rice pudding, combine with mint and berries for a pick-me-up smoothie, add a sweet and tart kick to salsas, chutneys and preserves, or whip up this delightful grape gazpacho to cool your heels on a sizzling summer afternoon. u

Muirlands students ace Greek Mythology

M

uirlands sixth-grade teacher Susan Speirs Minnicks hosted Greek Mythology Awards in the school auditorium, June 4, where English students took a 50-question test on Greek Mythology and

those who scored a 100 percent received a gold medal. Those who answered one-to-two questions incorrectly received a silver medal and those who answered three-to-four questions incorrectly received bronze medals. On hand to help hand out the awards was Principal Harlan Klein. — Pearl Preis

From Cooking Tips, B1 “They are incredibly easy to do (despite how it sounds) and they can be done in small batches, so people can get the hang of it,” she said. “Fermented vegetables are really crisp and zingy, but not acidic, and can have that pickle taste plus whatever flavorings you add to it.” Payne said the fermentation gives certain vegetables probiotic benefits, similar to those found in yogurt, and that fermented cabbage produces anticarcinogenic compounds. “It’s pretty magical stuff,” she said. Now back in Austin, Payne said cooking for her family is “a grounding experience” and that once novices get in the habit of cooking, even just a few small things, making complete meals is not that far behind. “You start to see that it’s not that much more convenient to pick something up or get something delivered. You can put the time you would spend in line (ordering and paying for food) toward cooking a pot of rice, and with that, you have control over what is going in your body.” She said there are many reasons why people don’t cook today. “Sometimes people watch the Food Network and think ‘only people like that cook at home,’ or maybe it’s because there are so many cookbooks and so many recipes that people get inundated with possibility and don’t actually undertake anything,” she said. “It can all get to be too much.” She hopes her books (she also penned “The Hip Girl’s Guide to Homemaking,” HarperCollins, 2011) simplify the cooking process.

Self-defense course for women to benefit Becky’s House programs Sensei Kikuchi and Sensei Jackson, principle instructors at USA Freestyle Martial Arts on Sports Arena Boulevard, designed a program to benefit Becky’s House, a nonprofit that assists women and children affected by domestic violence. Their goal is to train 1,000 women this year in self-defense, for a donation of $20 per person, with 100 percent of the proceeds going directly to Becky’s House. Classes will be held at the school (dojo),

however, depending on class size and other factors, could be conducted at other locations. The self-defense seminars are three hours long and designed for beginners who want to learn basic self-defense techniques. Participants will learn: n Strategies on how to avoid being a victim and how to avoid situations where one’s safety could be compromised; n Things to say and actions to take to thwart a possible attack;

n Techniques designed to build awareness and self-confidence leading to a greater sense of empowerment; n Statistics about assault perpetrators, such as what a potential attacker looks for in their victims and how they often identify their targets; USA Freestyle Martial Arts is at 3760 Sports Arena Blvd., Suite 1, San Diego.
