‘Hard Choices’ book tour brings Hillary Clinton to La Jolla By Pat Sherman ormer U.S. Secretary of State and (as many either hope or dread) prospective 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton was in La Jolla June 25 to sign copies of her new memoir, “Hard Choices.” A line of 1,100 people who gained admittance by pre-ordering Clinton’s book snaked down Girard Avenue, spilling onto Prospect Street. Clinton first visited the store in 2003, to sign copies of her book, “Living History.” She was also in town last week to speak at the BIO International Convention in downtown San Diego. While waiting to enter Warwick’s, Brent and LJ Livingston of Chula Vista bought their daughters two of the sixdozen Hillary Clinton cookies Girard Gourmet baked for the event.

By Ashley Mackin For their graduate studies at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), students Amber Jackson and Emily Callahan figuratively and literally dived into their research. Hoping to implement a program called Rigs-toReefs for decommissioned oil rigs off the coast of California, they call their graduate project Rig2Reef Exploration, and want people to understand its potential ecological value. Callahan said many oil rigs (or oil platforms) situated in the oceans off the U.S. coasts have been in place for decades allowing sea life to grow on the bases, effectively turning them into artificial reefs. Rigs can range in height from 90 feet to well over 500 feet. “These are awesome ecosystems,” Callahan continued. “There is not an inch of the platform that does not have sea anemones, sea stars and other life.

Mount Soledad Memorial Association seeks docents, volunteers
T
he Mount Soledad Memorial Association is seeking volunteers for its La Jolla office, as well as docents at the Mount Soledad Veterans Memorial atop Mt. Soledad in La Jolla. A variety of volunteer opportunities are available, including memorial plaque designers, plaque salespersons, website support, coordinating veteran event activities, social media and general administrative office duties. Each calls for approximately three hours per week of volunteer service. Training programs are in place to orient new volunteers. “It is only through the support of our docents and volunteers that we can continue our work honoring and recognizing those men and women,” said Bruce Bailey, the association’s president and chief executive officer. Senior Chief Wilfred “Bill” Sturgeon has been an association volunteer and memorial docent for the past four years, answering questions about the memorial and conducting tours upon request. Sturgeon served in the U.S. Navy and retired after 24 years of military service. He served onboard seven different destroyers in both the Korean and Vietnam wars.
Wilfred “Bill” Sturgeon, a longtime docent with the Mount Soledad Memorial Association, poses with frequent canine visitor, Chloe, and awaits visitors with questions about the site. Courtesy “I am one of seven docents, each of us helping visitors better understand the significance of this extraordinary veterans tribute, which recognizes the major contributions of those who have helped preserve the freedoms we enjoy as Americans,” Sturgeon said. “It’s an ideal opportunity for both veterans and non-veterans to show their patriotism while honoring those who have served
our country.” A highlight of Sturgeon’s biweekly shifts is connecting with his canine visitors. “Dog owners in the La Jolla area regularly take their dogs up to Soledad Natural Park for daily walks,” he said. “As the dogs near the top of the site, they break into quick step knowing that I am working my docent shift, with pockets brimming with tasty dog
biscuits. It’s a highlight for me to see the dogs but to also converse and share the association’s story with those in our own backyard.” In addition to answering questions and assisting the more than 60,000 visitors who pass through the Memorial each year, Sturgeon’s responsibilities include completing weekly reports on the number of domestic and foreign visitors, answering visitor
questions, plaque location requests, group pictures and new plaque inquiries. In 2014, he initiated a program with volunteers to help maintain the appearance of the memorial walls and veteran plaques. He is also instrumental in overseeing and supervising an induction program for new Navy Chief Petty Officer selectees to help with general maintenance work at the memorial. Sturgeon developed a U.S. Presidents’ and Medal of Honor Tour, which shows visitors where each of these distinguished veteran plaques are located on the memorial walls. “We hope to get the word out about our need for more volunteers and docents who bring the same energy and enthusiasm for our mission as Bill has for so many years,” Bailey said. “He is truly an asset to our organization and to our community.” The Mount Soledad Veterans Memorial is the only veteran’s memorial in the United States that honors veterans, living and deceased, from the Revolutionary War to the current conflicts in the Middle East.

U nder the Sea Precious ecosystems depicted in Birch Aquarium photography exhibit
Octavio Aburto
s
This image of a diver encountering a massive ‘tornado’ of fish is part of the ‘Mexican Seas/Mares Mexicanos’ exhibition.
By David L. Coddon ctavio Aburto is a storyteller, and the stories he tells with underwater photography will likely take your breath away. Picture a cluster of newly hatched infant crocodiles. Or a school of fish swimming together in the shape of a tornado funnel. Or a harbor seal staring right at Aburto’s camera in a photo titled “Peek-a-Boo.” One of the most dramatic images in the exhibition “Mexican Seas/Mares Mexicanos,” now open at the Birch Aquarium at Scripps, is actually one above the surface: a magnificent devil ray leaping out of the water during its courtship ritual. The 41-year-old Aburto is assistant professor of marine ecology at the Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation at Scripps Institution of Oceanography. His exploration of the biodiversity in four areas of Mexican waters, funded largely by private foundations in Mexico, is documented in the digital images on exhibition at the aquarium. The goal: to emphasize the importance of conservation underwater, not only in Mexico but everywhere, including U.S. waters. “We are trying to communicate the science beyond the academic sector,” he said, “and we want to disseminate the results to the general public.”

Scientist and photographer Octavio Aburto dives near the San Benito Islands off Baja California. Claudio Contreras Koob Aburto says protection measures enacted in Mexico should be a model for policy on a global scale. “I don’t understand why we don’t appreciate (the importance) of protecting nature and ecosystems,” he said, sounding a note of frustration. But at the same time, he is quick to point out that the conservation efforts in Mexico are hopeful developments, and that those stories he tells with his pictures are stories of hope. Further, Aburto says his research has shown him that conservation is good, not only for the ecosystem, but for the economics of the communities around them, such as Cabo Pulmo, which will benefit from more tourists attracted to visit

its reefs and more efficient fishing (as opposed to “overfishing”) outside the conservation area. “These communities have realized,” Aburto concludes, “that protecting resources provides a healthy environment and produces economic benefits.” Similarly, on San Benito Island, the people in that area formed a cooperative that protected the ecosystem from fishing, except for lucrative harvests of abalone and lobster. “Most of the time,” said Aburto, “we in the States believe that communities down there (in Mexico) are overfishing and destroying everything. When you go to these communities, you find
they are the only ones in the world who are trying to protect nature.” The photographs in the aquarium exhibition represent at least five years of underwater research, which Aburto undertook using a Nikon digital camera and a Canadian-made Aquatica digital housing. While at times he worked at depths of up to 90 feet, at others he was in relatively shallow waters, as when encountering the crocodiles that are such an imposing, albeit fascinating, subject in this visual exhibition. Aburto made the crocs photography stars to accomplish more than to amaze, however. “They are an important part of coastal lagoons and estuaries,” he said. Because of

protection measures in Mexico, its waters boast a vast “genetically pure” population of American crocodiles. Taking their pictures was an exercise in patience — he sometimes had to wait as long as 10 days for an “encounter.” But as to his proximity to sharp croc teeth, “If you are calm, they won’t attack you. They are looking for food,” but not of the human variety. The crocodile photos may attract the most attention from aquarium visitors, but Aburto is most proud of the “tornado” of fish photograph, where he said everything came together “perfectly.” “Having a picture that stands out requires thinking,” he said.
“Also luck and hard work.” “Mares/Mexicanos” is important to Aburto on both a personal and an educational level. “What I’m proud of is the way I can tell stories with these images, stories that people understand and that will start them thinking about the big picture … and also to be inspired to do the same thing here (in the U.S.). These stories will open discussions.” u n IF YOU GO: “Mexican Seas/ Mares Mexicanos” is on exhibit at Birch Aquarium at Scripps, 2300 Expedition Way, La Jolla. Admission: $11-$17.

All Boxed In Residents say design of Torrey Pines home creates blind spots, hazards
This 5.5-foot tall electrical box may create a blind spot, blocking motorists’ view of vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists as they attempt to turn right or left onto Torrey Pines Road from Coast Walk. just lost because they think (our street) is Coast Boulevard, so they turn. That intersection is often bolloxed up with at least five or six cars all jimmying around trying to get in or out.” Paul Teirstein, chief of cardiology for Scripps Clinic and a Coast Walk resident also opposed to the utility box placement, concurred that Coast Walk at Torrey Pines Road is an intersection that requires “maximum visibility” for motorists. “I think the new owners are going to be dealing with the same problems that we deal with every day,” Teirstein said. “It would be in their interest, as well as everybody’s interest, to minimize the view obstruction.”
The property, located at 1620 Torrey Pines Road, was once part of an adjacent property at 1590 Torrey Pines (at Coast Walk), later sold as a separate parcel, which was purchased by the Storfers. Although the properties once shared a driveway exiting onto Coast Walk, that easement has since been vacated. The Storfers will now have to cut a driveway for their home into bustling Torrey Pines Road. Seeking a remedy, Rushfeldt and wife Brenda Fake reached out to the builder, Raul Albanez of RLP Development, as well as Marengo Morton Architects, although the obstructing elements were nevertheless permitted and installed, with a variance granted by the city (calls and e-mails to both Albanez and Marengo Morton Architects were not returned by press time). In a May 30 e-mail to Rushfeldt, William Barrañón, an inspection services manager with the city, said inspector David Dent visited the construction site on April 29 and issued a correction notice for the items, which were not included in original plans submitted to the city. However, instead of requiring that the location of the utility box be adjusted, Dent “requested a plan change to show and approve all items not correctly identified on the (previously) approved plans; including the electrical main panel, gas meter, site walls (and) driveway layout.” The architect has since updated plans to include all these city-approved “site improvements.” “The electrical panel meets all zoning requirements,” Dent said, via e-mail, noting that he would inspect the glass partition the next time he visits the site. Barrañón said SDG&E utility boxes are typically placed within the public right-of-way, “exempt from the city’s zoning requirements” and thus do not require city permits.

By Pat Sherman Residents on Coast Walk say a home development near the intersection of their street and Torrey Pines Road has for years obstructed their view of southbound traffic and pedestrians on Torrey Pines as they attempt to turn onto busy thoroughfare. Now, residents say those visual impediments — including a work fence that stood along Torrey Pines for three years, construction equipment and workers’ vehicles — have been replaced with permanent visual barriers: a 5.5-foot tall electrical box and a glass-topped wall, both located at the property line, just feet from Torrey Pines Road. In an April 28 e-mail to property owners Michael and Robin Storfer, who declined to comment for this story, Coast Walk resident Tom Rushfeldt noted that the electrical box is just 4.5 feet from Torrey Pines Road. “The location of the box is made much worse because traffic on Torrey Pines Road is coming uphill and around a curve, making it very difficult to see — and that’s without the electric box obstructing the view,” Rushfeldt wrote, urging the Storfers to have their contractor replace the box with a shorter one that would not block views. “Any reputable architect or contractor should be able to see the current box will cause safety problems,” wrote Rushfeldt, who told La Jolla Light the “steep angle” of the glass partition to the roadway would block motorists’ view of traffic like an “opaque wall.” “You’ll have to basically drive into the bike lane and stick the nose of your car way out into Torrey Pines Road to see whether or not you can even pull out,” he said. “You’ve got hundreds of pedestrians, dozens of bikes and probably at least 200 cars (pulling in and out of Coast Walk) every day. You’ve got all the tourists … and people who are

“In this instance, however, the electrical service panel is located on the property in the front yard setback,” he wrote. SDG&E told the Light the box is “owned by the resident,” and its location was “mutually agreed upon to meet access and safety requirements.” Lynda Pfeifer, a supervising public information officer with the city’s development services department, said the project complies with San Diego Municipal Code. A “visibility triangle” with 25-foot sides normally required for properties at the intersection of streets (which requires that nothing blocking the view be placed within it), does not apply because the property is not technically at the intersection of two streets — only precariously close. “Visibility should be taken care of on the adjoining property and not this property,” Pfeifer said, via e-mail. Coast Walk resident Linda Fisler said the property owner, builder and city may be adhering to the letter of city’s municipal code and zoning requirements, although its spirit and intent have been clearly thwarted. “We gave them tons of heads-up when we saw what was going to happen, and they just simply overruled us,” she said. “We tried to work with them before it became permanent.” u
Owners of this home at 1620 Torrey Pines Road plan to cut a driveway entry into the curb along this busy stretch of roadway. Nearby residents fear it will create a traffic hazard, and are also concerned with blind spots created by a glass partition and electrical box (inset photo) installed on the property, which distributes power to the home and a storm water pump.

Trashing Our Beach Front
I
’ve taken these pictures over the past month as I walk my dog, and have become increasingly concerned by what I am encountering — today’s was just too much. 1. The first photo was taken last month on my morning dog walk around 6 a.m. (the dog is leashed, of course, because the lifeguards and police actually take this regulation seriously) at the bottom of Sea Lane, before my fellow dog-walkers and I cleaned it up as we do every morning. Having moved here from Europe (which has a 21st century infrastructure and approach to waste that includes not only public recycling bins, but tamper-proof receptacles that do not allow animal or human scavenging), seeing
tunein
something like this anywhere other than lesser developed countries is disgraceful. Is this Tijuana or La Jolla? I can’t tell from the photo. 2. The second picture was taken last Tuesday evening, again at the Sea Lane garbage can at 6 p.m. (when dogs are allowed again). A lifeguard was on duty all day and the police drive by, but clearly neither did anything to enforce the posted regulation prohibiting drinking. The upside on this one is that at least the lawbreakers picked up their own garbage. Refreshing. 3. The third picture was taken June 29 at 4 p.m. on the corner of Marine Street and Monte Vista. The young man running out of the bushes seemed think it was perfectly acceptable and legal to trespass into the resident’s garden and urinate (the elderly neighbor next door was actually

Chistopher Canole of La Jolla sports a jacket given to him by the Tuskegee Airmen for President Obama’s 2009 inauguration as Warwick’s owner Nancy Warwick (left) greets some of the 1,100 attendees in line. James Borack Senator demonstrated cheery, albeit slightly restrained enthusiasm when speaking with “Ready for Hillary” volunteers, who donned their desire for her to seek the presidency a second time in the form of buttons, stickers, shirts and hats. “Thank you for volunteering,” she told them. “Keep that energy level up!” Clinton took time to answer a few serious questions, including one from a young man born in Colombo, Sri Lanka, who was returning there within days and wanted to know how Clinton felt about the renewed

violence and tensions in his country. Noting Sri Lanka’s 30-year-civil war (which ended in 2009), she told him, “When I was secretary I tried very hard to persuade the government to try to heal the wounds of that terrible war, and I hope that still is their goal. … I think the world was pleased when it finally ended, but you can’t just end a war and not do more to try to make people feel included.” Clinton sent the smiling young man on his way with a signed book and her hopes for a “safe and constructive trip.”
Emerging from the store with tears in her eyes, 23-year-old Sara Miller said she was moved by words of encouragement from her role model. “She was interested in what I wanted to do in the future,” said the UTC resident, who graduated last December from the University of Nevada, Reno with a major in international affairs. “She asked me what languages I speak, and said I should think about the foreign service, and how she could really see how people like me could be beneficial to the country.”

Elizabeth Warren.” People began arriving as early as 3:30 a.m. for the event. La Jollan Lena Gerwick said she attended because she is concerned about the direction the country is headed. “And I guess thought it would be interesting to meet her just once in my life,” Gerwick added. “I think she is very accomplished and has probably more knowledge than most of the other ones that are going to try to run.” Appearing just shortly after her scheduled 8:30 a.m. start time, Clinton emerged from the rear of the store with gusto. “It’s great to be back,” she said. “Let’s sign some books!” The consummate elder statesperson, Clinton was poised and polished, conveying in equal measure interest and empathy. “I’m delighted to see you,” “I hope have a good summer,” she told those in line, many of whom addressed her as “Madame Secretary.” Clinton accepted congratulations on her daughter Chelsea’s recently announced pregnancy and Oxford doctorate, and complimented a visuallyimpaired guest on his “beautiful” guide dog.

The former first lady, U.S. Senator and Secretary of State was generous with her time, granting each guest she spoke with from 30 to 60 seconds of her attention. Nine-year-old Northern California resident Emily Hatch, who attended with her grandparents, Mel and Randi Hatch (of Olivenhain), said she thought it was “neat” to meet Clinton. “I’ll look back and say, ‘I met the president,’ ” she mused. “It was worth waiting in the really, really, long line.” Christopher Moffatt, a graduate student in the School of International Relations at UC San Diego and a registered Democrat, said he didn’t vote for Clinton when she ran in 2008, though attended because he is “very
much a fan of her work as secretary of state under President Obama. “It’s a little bit early for me to say whether I would support her or not,” Moffatt said. La Jollan Christopher Canole said he believes Clinton will “unequivocally” be the next president, though Mission Hills resident James Borack, who attended with him, wasn’t as assured. “I’m a statistician,” he said. “If the election were held now, do I think she would win?

Children at an orphanage in Tijuana smile while reading letters from their pen pals at Gillispie School.

Nonprofit enlists Gillispie students to brighten Tijuana orphans’ lives By Pat Sherman a Jolla resident Emaluisa Bustamante Serhan was speaking with her sister in 2009, when she learned about a Tijuana orphanage in dire need of assistance, lacking food for 50 children living there, who had not been fed in days. “The people who used to bring them food were Americans who stopped crossing the border after the wave of violence started the previous year,” Serhan said. “They had nothing.” The heartbreak of that news caused Serhan’s sister, Carolina Bustamante Garcia, to ask parents of students in her daughter’s classroom to have their children bring food to the school’s pantry, which she delivered to the orphanage. That effort led to the formation of the nonprofit Together for Charity, which sponsors the organization on an ongoing basis and is run by Serhan, Garcia and a group of Mexican-American women who grew up in Tijuana, but relocated to San Diego years ago. “We provide food and clothes, we pay utility bills, medical and education expenses — you name it,” Serhan said. Together for Charity has been working with students at the Gillispie School in La Jolla for several years to assist Mexican youths at Casa Hogar orphanage. “I have had the privilege to be a Gillispie mom for three years now, and all of the teachers and friends have always been very supportive,” said Serhan, whose two children attend Gillispie’s early childhood program. “My son’s

kindergarten teachers, Laurie Buttaro and Mrs. Karen Basil, saw that I picked him up early once a month to take him on our monthly visits to the orphanage, and they asked how they could be of help.” Serhan and Gillispie teachers created the organization’s pen pal program, where Gillispie kindergarteners and children from the orphanage write letters to each other all year long. Gillispie students also held a “veggie drive” to collect fresh vegetable donations for the children, and a Spanish-language book drive so Gillispie students could share their favorite books with their pen pals. “The children in Gillispie’s kindergarten class have learned to appreciate all that they have,” Serhan said. “For the kids at the orphanage … there is someone else thinking of them, asking them what they like to do, how they are, and even writing about themselves. “(The orphans) usually feel very forgotten, so when I told them that there are 10 little kids on the other side of the border who wanted to be their friends and wanted to help them they didn’t believe me,” Serhan said. The Gillispie School plans to continue its students’ involvement with the organization in the coming year. In addition, Together for Charity matches a “godparent” to every child, who is responsible for providing individualized attention and support to their “godchild.” n For information on how to help, call (619) 823-3444 or visit togetherforcharity.com u

From Rigs to Reefs, A1
Scripps Institution of Oceanography students Amber Jackson and Emily Callahan dive below an oil rig. which she said are ideal breeding grounds for rockfish, some species of which are threatened. Additionally, she observed an increase in the presence of plankton, a food source for other sea animals. “When we came up from the dive, our suits were squirming with plankton,” she said. Added Callahan, “When we went under the first time, we were in shock. People in California don’t know what it looks like under the oil rigs!” Because the rigs are so covered, the metal legs are slow to corrode. “There isn’t one part of the iron that is exposed to water,” Jackson said. Based on corrosion rate thus far and observations of sunken ships, estimates suggest these structures can stand in the ocean without maintenance 200-300 years.
Understanding the opposition When it comes time for a platform to be removed, what to do with each one is determined on a case-by-case basis. Thus far, each eligible platform in California has been completely removed, largely due to vocal opposition from trawl fishermen. Callahan explained that if a platform is completely removed, fishermen could trawl (fish via nets that are dragged at different depths) in that area. Further, those in opposition say the reefs would not meet the terms of current artificial reef legislation, which indicate a need must be met by the reef’s installation. While the Rigs-to-Reefs structures do not meet a need, Callahan said they enhance the life that’s already there.

Additionally, financial incentives for oil companies create an unfavorable public perception. Jackson said it costs approximately $5 million to completely remove an oil-rig platform, depending on size, but only costs about $800,000, to establish guidelines and have the rig under the auspice of the Rigs-to-Reefs program. “Oil companies save a lot of money, which puts people off,” said Callahan. “They think ‘the companies have so much money, we don’t want them to save more.’ ” However, per the rules of Rigs-to-Reefs, half of the cost savings must go to the state to be reinvested into artificial reef programs, the Department of Fish and Wildlife and other marine research initiatives. Another downside people see,
s
marine life out there can grow and continue to flourish, as opposed to killing whatever is growing on it when you take the whole oil rig out.” Rigs-to-Reefs is an alternative to the complete removal of decommissioned platforms, with three proposed ways to keep some, if not all, the rig in place. The methods being discussed are: removing only the top portion of a rig and leaving the bottom 85 feet; a topple-in-place method, where the rig is cut off and placed horizontally along the bottom of the ocean; and a tow-and-place method, where a rig is removed completely, but taken to another location and placed. Similar programs are in effect for rigs off the southern U.S. coast (off Texas), where the decommissioned base remains and the top is repurposed as a research facility. “Our project is to see how successful this could be in California, and when the time comes for these platforms to be decommissioned, if this would be an economically and ecologically good idea.” The Bureau for Safety and Environmental Enforcement issued a notice that any platform deemed “idle,” as of 2010, would be decommissioned by October 2015. An idle rig is defined as one that has not produced oil in five years. As part of their research, Jackson and Callahan SCUBA dived under platforms off Santa Barbara to see first-hand what kind of life was growing there. Jackson observed shell mounds at the base of the platform — built by animals shedding their shells and having the shells fall to the ocean floor —

Callahan said, is the fear of an oil spill. “When a platform is taken out, all the oil wells are capped and sealed the same way. So whether they are taken out completely or cut off, the chance of an oil spill is the same. Plus, the oil company owns that well forever, so they will retain liability.” A long time coming For Jackson, oil rigs have been on her radar since she was a child. “I’m originally from Laguna Beach. Growing up, I could always see these platforms offshore and they always interested me. At Scripps, (Callahan and I) took a scientific diving course … we started talking about these platforms, which led us to Rigs-to-Reefs.” In the wake of the 2010 BP oil spill off the
From Aquarium Director, A1 and leafy dragon fish and baby anemonefish, said he vows to continue where Hillgarth left off, working to ensure Birch “remains relevant” to both tourists and locals. Schindler’s appointment is expected to last one year while the search for a permanent aquarium director is under way. “Working here for me really is a dream come true,” he said. “I think it would be pretty cool if maybe there was an opportunity for it to last longer, but so far I keep telling people that I’m pinching myself to remind myself that it’s real.” Schindler, who grew up in Allied Gardens and Del Cerro, joins Birch after more than two years as senior vice president and chief marketing officer of the National Aquarium. As a member of National Aquarium’s executive leadership team, he helped transform the institution’s marketing role, improve programming and guest satisfaction and increase revenues. During his tenure, Schindler’s team launched two major new exhibits at National Aquarium, heightened the institution’s brand and revamped its communications programs. His background includes organizational development, communications, membership, community relations and fundraising. The National Aquarium, Baltimore has an annual attendance of 1.5 million people (Birch attracts between 400,000 and 450,000 visitors per year). The National Aquarium maintained a smaller site in Washington, D.C. that drew about 200,000 visitors annually, before closing last September after it lost its space in the Herbert C. Hoover
coast of Mississippi, Callahan volunteered to test core samples and biotag samples taken on site to see how certain species were affected. Her interest in oil spills prompted her research at Scripps. As the two developed their Scripps research, other students in the graduate program realized they could use Rigs-toReefs findings in their own research. Although they graduated this year, Callahan and Jackson said they would continue their exploration into the program. The twosome will present their findings thus far at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach in September and have planned dives at other rigs. u

Building (home to the U.S. Department of Commerce and White House Visitor Center). The building is undergoing a longterm modernization and renovation. “My business unit (at National Aquarium) was responsible for Baltimore and for Washington, D.C., but Baltimore was really the driver, financially, and reputationally,” Schindler said, noting that there is talk of relocating the D.C. aquarium to the National Mall. “That plan went on hold and continues to be on hold,” Schindler said. “What the National Aquarium … continues to do is work on a feasibility study for the future of the National Aquarium in Washington, D.C.” Schindler said he is happy and humbled to take the reins from Hillgarth, who left in May. “My job is to ensure that within the next year we can really, deeply engage within the various stakeholder groups here to consider the future for the Birch Aquarium and at the same time to really celebrate all of the work that the people who have been here for 10 months, 10 years or 20 years have contributed to this institution.”

Note to parents: Smart kids wear sunglasses GUEST COMMENTARY By Gordon Bigler y wife and I (we met playing tennis at La Jolla Rec Center) are always amazed when we go to the park or pool and look around to find most adults wearing sunglasses and hats, while the kids are not wearing either and are left fully exposed to the sun. If it were not for a unique opportunity brought into our lives, we also would be unaware of the importance of protecting our children’s eyes from the harsh rays of the sun, beginning at a very young age. We have three beautiful daughters. Our oldest was born with a rare eye condition known as Aniridia. This is a condition that affects the eye in several ways, but most apparent is the lack of an iris in the eye. The iris works to regulate the amount of light that enters the eye and enables one to see in varying degrees of light. In our daughters’ case, both eyes lack an iris and as a result, her eyes are fully dilated at all times. The best analogy we can think of is when one walks out of the movie theater and into the bright sunlight, it is blinding until our eyes adjust. In our daughters’ case, this is what everyday feels like. Her eyes are unable to adjust in blocking any sunlight and a normal sunny day for most people is blinding for her. As we’ve become educated about Aniridia, how it affects our daughter and our everyday life, we came across a significant amount of scientific data describing the importance of sun eye protection in children. What’s ironic is that it’s even more critical to protect our children’s eyes than our own! We are passionate about eye sun protection and have integrated sunglasses into our immediate and extended family. Beginning at birth, all our children have worn sunglasses every time they go outside. Our extended family has also adopted this policy because modeling desired behavior is so important for children when learning what behaviors are expected. We’d like to share some of the knowledge we’ve accumulated to increase awareness of the
M
Gordon Bigler and his daughters, Maddy, Gabby and Lillian Courtesy importance of protecting children’s eyes. n Children tend to spend more time outdoors than most adults. It is widely accepted that nearly half of a person’s lifetime exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation takes place by age 18. UV radiation from sunlight is associated with multiple age-related eye problems, including cataracts and macular degeneration. n Children are more susceptible to retinal damage from UV rays because the lens inside a child’s eye is clearer than an adult lens, enabling more UV to penetrate deep into the eye. In addition to causing eye problems, UV rays can cause skin cancer of the face, including the delicate skin of the eyelids and the area around the eyes. n Overexposure to UV light can cause a serious and painful “sunburn” of the cornea, medically known as photokeratitis, which can cause a temporary loss of vision that is commonly called “snow blindness” and growths on the surface of the eye. The more exposure you’ve had to the sun’s harmful UV rays during your lifetime, the more at risk you are for these sight-limiting conditions. n Be aware that UV radiation penetrates clouds and while on sunny days it’s easy to remember to wear hats and sunglasses, it is just as important on cloudy days. Encourage your kids to wear their sunglasses even on overcast days to protect their eyes. n For the best UV protection, kids should wear wide-brimmed hats as well as sunglasses when spending a lot of time outdoors on sunny days. Researchers say a hat that shades the eyes and face can cut the amount of UV exposure in
half. And don’t forget the sunscreen, too! n Some countries have actually been quick adopters of eye protection for children. In Australia, the self-described “skin cancer capital of the world,” there is a national campaign “SunSmart” (sunsmart.com.au) that offers best practices for sun protection and dealing with UV rays. n One comment we hear frequently is “how do you get your kids to keep the glasses on?” The answer is two-fold: start putting glasses on your child as early as you can and find glasses that fit your child’s head and face. n We’ve found glasses that have a strap work the best for young kids and the brand “Baby Banz” (babybanz.com) has high quality lenses and cool styles that are good for any child up to age 13. They sell swim and ski goggles as well. n Be leery of children’s sunglasses with labels that say, “blocks UV rays” without specifying the actual percentage of UV radiation the lenses absorb. Through the years we’ve heard comments when we take our children places while they’re all wearing sunglasses, but most of them are encouraging. We are OK with people thinking we want to “be cool” or that our girls are “Little Miss Hollywood” because we know that we are investing in our children’s health and wellbeing and creating habits that will serve them well in the years to come. We encourage parents to begin to think about the importance of protecting their children’s eyes and modeling this behavior. A good rule of thumb is that if you want your sunglasses, your child probably does as well. Good luck! u

Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast is July 19 Once again it is time for the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla to invite our neighbors to breakfast — It’s PANCAKE TIME on Saturday, July 19! Every year the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla organizes three events in our community: La Jolla Half Marathon, La Jolla Junior Olympics and the Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast. The club gives the proceeds back to our community in the form of scholarships, grants to schools, support for veterans programs, supplementary funding for the Meals-on-Wheels program, just to name a few. It is through these activities that the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla embraces and acts upon the tenants of community, family and fellowship. All this is made possible by you, our generous neighbors in La Jolla, and we thank you! n April saw the 33rd running of the La Jolla Half Marathon. The race has evolved over the last 30 years into the largest annual fundraising event for the Kiwanis Club. n May 18, the club organized the 23rd annual La Jolla Junior Olympics, held at La Jolla High School’s Edwards Field. Children from La Jolla, Bird Rock and Torrey Pines elementary schools, Gillespie School, All Hallows Academy, The Children’s School, San Diego French American School, Stella Maris Academy and The Evans School competed in various track and field events. n Our 51st annual Pancake Breakfast will be held 7:30-11:30 a.m. Saturday, July 19 at the La Jolla Recreation Center, 615 Prospect St. There will be a live band, face painting, a bounce house and pony rides for the children. And, of course, all the pancakes and sausages you can eat! Admission is free to ages 10 and younger, all other tickets are $10 at C&H Photo, 7742 Girard Ave., or at the door. On behalf of the membership of Kiwanis Club of La Jolla, I wish everyone a happy, safe Independence Day, and I encourage you to join the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla in fellowship to serve our community. We are a non-denominational, non-sectarian organization with the mission to serve the children of the world (kiwanisclublajolla. org).

Nearby residents to the planned Nobel Drive station on the Mid-Coast Trolley (“La Jolla Residents Start Petition to Nix Trolley Station” June 26 issue) object to the parking structure. This is the only place nearby on the line where public parking can possibly be built. The next three stops will be locations where public parking is not permitted — VA Hospital and two at UCSD. As it is, the parking structure design is a compromise. There should be much more parking than 260 spaces. Trolley riders driving from points north to the Old Town station today take up more than that many spaces, and it will be the same situation for Nobel Drive, because it will be the most convenient stop with parking at the north end of the extended line. They are even asking for the Nobel Drive station to be eliminated from the Mid-Coast plan. That would be a disaster for the La Jolla community. Regardless of what the Nobel Drive station is eventually named, it will be the “La Jolla” station because it will be the closest trolley stop to central La Jolla, the beaches and the Cove. Visitors to La Jolla, residents and people working in La Jolla who will come and go on the trolley will get on and off at the Nobel Drive station. The La Jolla Community Plan has, since it was written over a decade ago, called for a shuttle bus between the Village and the anticipated north extension of the trolley, and the only logical route for that shuttle is to and from the planned Nobel Drive station. Unfortunately, the Nobel Drive station layout has the bus stop connection going through a parking lot, past the California Pizza Kitchen and across Nobel Drive. The station needs to be redesigned to provide convenient movement from the trolley to the bus stop, like the plans show for the Tecolote Road, Clairemont Drive and Balboa Avenue stations. The Mid-Coast Trolley is a $1.7 billion project, and one would think they could find in that enough to buy-out the California Pizza Kitchen — instead of building around it — and put in an adequate parking structure and a bus-totrolley transfer facility.

Volunteers tackle litter once a month in UTC Why would anyone spend a Sunday morning picking litter from their neighborhood streets? It’s a good question because for the past three months People for a Clean University City, a group of citizen volunteers, have elected to do just that. On Sunday, June 8, 16 UC residents and one volunteer from La Mesa, met at Starbucks, 3202 Governor Drive, to tackle a silent but unsightly problem in UC — litter piling up on our busy streets.
The number of volunteers grows each month to clean up the UTC area. Courtesy At 7:30 they fanned out across Governor Drive, Regents Road, Genesee Avenue and Nobel Drive to collect over the next 90 minutes about 150 pounds of litter and debris. At the end of the cleanup several volunteers expressed their reasons for pitching in. “I really enjoy living in UC,” said Kim Morch. “It’s wonderful for walking
and biking. Picking up trash once a month seemed like a simple and very worthwhile way to improve the neighborhood. As a bonus, I enjoyed chatting with my daughter as we worked side by side.” First-time volunteer John Sudul said, “I enjoy the sense of community and get satisfaction from doing my part when time allows, and presently time allows.” Long-time resident and UCHS girls’ volleyball coach Brooke Chic said, “Our Earth is a beautiful place and needs to be taken care of. I volunteer for the UC cleanup group because I know that when everybody gives a little, it is always for the greater good. I wish everyone took a little more responsibility to enhance and nurture our Earth.” People for a Clean University City will next meet 7-7:30 a.m. Sunday, July 13, at Starbucks at Governor Drive and Regents Road. We’ll break up into teams of two and three and pick up litter until 9 a.m. u Vince Reardon University City n Letters to the Editor for publication should be 250 words or less, and sent by e-mail to editor@lajollalight.com Please include the full name of the sender, city of residence and phone number for verification.

Parks & Beaches board reviews La Jolla issues with mayor’s rep La Jolla
Parks and Beaches By Ashley Mackin At the June 23 La Jolla Parks and Beaches (LJPB) meeting, board members were visited by San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s District 1 representative Francis Barraza. They used the opportunity to explain their position on community issues and find out where the mayor stands on those same issues. Additionally, LJPB Chair Dan Allen provided Barraza with a list of projects on their radar, and the one issue they seem to face when trying to get them done. Barraza, who said she would attend the meetings whenever possible (likely quarterly), told the group, “We are not always going to agree, I won’t promise you that, but you will have a clear answer as to where the mayor stands on these issues.” Allen explained to her that LJPB opposes — by majority, but not unanimity — the seasonal closure of Children’s Pool, and instead, favors it being open for shared use, and would like to see the ramp at Children’s Pool restored to its “historic functionality,” extending down to the sand.
Regarding the stench at the La Jolla Cove, presumed to be caused by sea lion and bird waste, Allen joked that LJPB was “ahead of the curve” in suggesting the fence deterring humans from accessing the cliffs be removed to restore public access, and a gate installed. LJPB member Bill Robbins said, “We are not done with the Cove and with the stench. The opening has helped, but those animals are getting very used to humans and we would like to find a way to get them off the rocks in a way that’s allowed under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. It’s going to take more than that gate to get those animals under control.” Among the dozen issues discussed, the board also affirmed their opposition to the proposed DecoBike bike-share stations within their purview; requested a feasibility study for parking near Coast Walk Trail; and asked that the Fay Avenue Bike Path be designated as open space. The board also expressed its frustration over assessments and fees with community projects; case in point: the WindanSea S-Curve project, with plans to replace the fencing along Neptune Place and fill in gaps between the sidewalk and the hillside. “This is one of those projects where we thought we had enough money based on estimates from a contractor, but we got whacked with the requirement that we go through an engineering review (at an additional cost),” Allen said. “It has got us in this cranky position of having generous

donors, who we praise and thank, and having to go back to them and say ‘the city needs more.’ ” The Children’s Pool Walk beautification project and the North Comfort Station at La Jolla Shores were presented with a similar situation.
At the June 16 Meet the Mayor event in La Jolla, Faulconer said he would look into what could be done to minimize fees on community projects, a position Barraza reiterated. With information in hand, Barraza explained what she would do to determine the mayor’s response. “My process is, I do some investigating and talk to Councilmember Sherri Lightner’s office, since they are usually aware of the issue and have done some legwork, and see what their position is. We work very closely with them and tend to defer to them, but we won’t always agree on an issue,” she said. Additionally, “I try to find which staff members at the city have been working on it … to see what they have done and seek their professional opinion.” From there she confers with the mayor’s policy team to verify his stance on the issue. Taking the information available from other offices and the position of the mayor’s office into consideration, she submits a suggested course of action or statement. “We try to come back with an answer (based on all that) which reflects what the mayor’s stand is and what the steps would be to move forward,” she said. “There are a lot of people working on all these issues that we have to go through, and that takes time. If you feel as though you are not getting responses back … that’s why.” n Parks and Beaches next meets 4 p.m. Monday, July 28 at the La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. LaJollaParksAndBeaches.org

New workout center invites La Jollans to get into ‘The Zone’ By Marti Gacioch The Zone Training Center’s mission is to provide members with the only workout they’ll ever need, said owner Ned Myan. New clients will receive a fitness analysis where their goals and aspirations are determined. “We want to insure that we give our clients programs and training suited to their particular needs,” Myan said. “We’ve designed proprietary exercise programs based on the scientific physiological facts about heart-rate training, and our programs help our members achieve their various goals.” The Zone at 565 Pearl St. (across from Jack in the Box) offers an extensive selection of equipment, along with group and personal training sessions for co-ed members ranging
in age from 18 to 80, which includes everyone from high-performance athletes to senior citizens. The center provides members with five trainers (including Myan) and a line of Precor cardiovascular equipment, treadmills and elliptical trainers. In addition, Zone Training Center features six multi-functional strength machines that provide users with a total workout on one unit. The equipment is supplemented by a full range of dumbbells, weight plates, kettle balls and suspension trainers. Each trainer is certified to deliver any of the sessions offered, and the group training sessions can accommodate up to 12 people, enabling the class instructor to interact with
every person. Older citizens who want to increase their balance and mobility can take the Twilight Zone class. “These exercises are designed to offset the possibility of osteoporosis and arthritis,” Myan said. “Our aim is to help prevent seniors from having a fall by assisting them with coordination, balance and some light weight-training.” Members working to lose weight can join the Drop Zone classes. Those who seek to increase their performance and get into even better shape can participate in High-Intensity training sessions. Myan, who holds a degree in physiology and anatomy, said he designed and developed Zone’s workout brand before
opening centers in Dubai, Qatar, Egypt and London. He recently opened the La Jolla center and said he chose the Village for its demographic, its community-feel and its beautiful weather. The Zone Training Center has extended its free first trial workout session to a free trial workout week that will expire at the end of July. u n The Zone Training Center, 565 Pearl St., Suite 110, La Jolla is open 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday-Thursday; 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday; 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

This form of competition evolved as a method of practicing emergency communication. Competing teams were selected from around the world in a series of 55 qualifying events over a three-year period. Amateur radio, or “ham radio” as it is often called, enables licensed participants to use short wave frequencies to communicate with peers from around the world. Licensed “hams” in the United States are authorized by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to use their radio equipment to talk anywhere on Earth, using different “modes of operation” such as voice, Morse code, or any of several digital modes, also pioneered within the ham radio community. wrtc2014.org u — Staff Reports

op amateur radio operator Patrick Briggs of La Jolla was selected to compete in the World Radiosport Team Championship, held every four years. This year’s competition, the first in the United States since 1996, will take place across 16 New England communities, July 9-14. Known as the “Olympiad of amateur radio,” previous competitions have been held in Seattle (1990), San Francisco (1996), Slovenia (2000), Finland (2002), Brazil (2006), and Russia (2010). A senior vice president at Wells Fargo Advisors, LLC, Briggs was born in Bremerhaven, Germany while his father served overseas in the U.S. Navy. He later grew up in New York state, lived in Tennessee for 13 years and has since made California his home. He holds a bachelor of science degree from Cornell University, and Juris Doctor degree from the University of Tennessee. Briggs received his amateur radio license in 2009, making him a veritable rookie among his longer tenured competitors. “I am honored to have been chosen by my father to compete with him as a team,” Briggs said. “It will be a tremendous learning opportunity and an experience of a lifetime.” WRTC2014 pits 59 two-operator all-star amateur radio teams, representing 38 countries, in a battle of operating skill and strategy under emergency field conditions.

Cross Controversy Continues
Supreme Court passes on chance to rule on Mt. Soledad symbol
T
he U.S. Supreme Court declined June 30 to immediately review a lower court’s decision regarding the constitutionality of the cross atop Mount Soledad in La Jolla. The 43-foot-tall monument and pedestal has been challenged in court for about 25 years. Opponents contend the cross is an endorsement of a particular religion, while supporters say it is a veterans memorial. The federal government obtained the title to the cross and its surrounding property by eminent domain and declared it to be a national war memorial in 2006. In 2011, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the cross violates the U.S. Constitution’s establishment clause and ordered the case returned to district court for disposition. U.S. District Judge Larry Burns last December issued his order in response to that decision, stating the cross be removed in 90 days, but he issued a stay until appeals are exhausted. Lawyers for the Mount Soledad Memorial Association then filed a petition to send the longrunning court battle directly to the U.S. Supreme Court, but in light of the stay, the Supreme Court chose to await the final decision by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Justice Samuel Alito wrote that a judicial review by the nation’s highest court was not yet warranted because “no final judgment has been rendered and it remains unclear precisely what action the Federal
Government will be required to take.’’ Supporters of the cross also unsuccessfully appealed to the Supreme Court in 2012. Lawyer Charles LiMandri told reporters he was confident the Supreme Court would eventually hear the case after the appellate court issued a final decision, but that could take two to three years. “The important thing is to remember, though, is the cross is not going anywhere — not now, and we believe not ever,” LiMandri said. Lawyer James McElroy, who represents plaintiff Steve Trunk, who wants the cross removed, told City News Service he didn’t think it was appropriate for the high court to take the case at this time. Until then, the case is back at the 9th Circuit, with briefings due to be filed over the next several months. After the appellate justices rule, the case could get appealed again to the Supreme Court, McElroy said. “On the one hand, you have the sheer statistics, which say that 98 percent of the cases that people ask the Supreme Court to take, they don’t take,” McElroy said. “Statistically, you would say no. On the other hand, this court has, on a couple of occasions, expressed an interest in this case.” The case could also be settled out of court by having the cross moved or the Mount Soledad land purchased by private interests, but there have been no such talks to this point, McElroy said. u — City News Service

La Jolla YMCA gymnasts take national title L a Jolla YMCA Gymnastics Team was one of 30 teams from across the country selected to compete at the USA Gymnastics All National Championships, June 21-22 in Orlando, Florida. The La Jolla YMCA team earned two first-place awards and one third-place award — making them National Champions! Judges scored the teams based on group floor routine, tumbling passes, vault and the mini trampoline. The La Jolla team performed in three different levels. The team was also selected to be the only YMCA represented on the USA Team for the World Gymnaestrada in Finland, set for summer 2015. The World Gymnaestrada takes place every four years in a different country and is the world’s largest gymnastics event. Competitive teams from all over the world are invited to participate in front of more than 100,000 spectators. The La Jolla YMCA, 8355 Cliffridge Ave., is raising funds to send the gymnasts to the event. Those interested in sponsoring them can contact the YMCA at (858) 453-3483. The YMCA gymnastics program in La Jolla helps to build confidence, comrade and sportsmanship, said gymnastics director Suzy O’Neal. To be selected for the team, young gymnasts must qualify through class participation. “The bond the team has together is more than a friendship — they are a family,” she said. u

Law and Junior League cast a spell over Andrea Nelson Myers

A
ndrea Nelson Myers is an attorney at Seltzer Caplan McMahon Vitek, who specializes in resolving complex business and property disputes. She compliments her work by serving as the fund development director for the Junior League of San Diego. Myers re-launched the Junior League’s signature fundraiser as a Kentucky Derbythemed Food & Wine Festival, held annually at La Jolla Cove. In two years, she helped double Andrea Nelson Myers revenue and increase attendance by 40 percent. She has been recognized as a “Woman Who Moves the City,” “Top Young Attorney” and “Young Influential.” Myers is a San Diego native. She attended The Bishop’s School and holds a bachelor’s degree from Claremont McKenna College. She received her J.D. from USD School of Law. She serves on her schools’ local alumni committees and is a member of the American Inns of Court: Louis M. Welsh Chapter, which is dedicated to improving the skills and ethics of the bench and bar.
What brought you to La Jolla? Bishop’s. After high school and college, I spent a few years in the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles, but was eager to get back to America’s Finest City. I moved back to San Diego for law school, married my college sweetheart, Zach, began working for a great law firm, and after a few years, bought a house close to my parents and the Village. Zach and I are now in the process of remodeling our “fixer” into the house of our dreams and we hope to never leave! What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? While La Jolla is close to perfect already, I would love to add a piano bar in the Village, subtract the pervasive odor in the Cove, and improve traffic congestion on Torrey Pines Road.

Let Inga Tell You
What a boring summer job can do for you
M
La Jolla Cultural Partners
y husband Olof’s parents and mine were similar in many ways and the one precept that they both held most dear was the intrinsic value of child labor. No job was too menial or too boring if it paid. When my sister and I were 7 and 8, our mother got us our first jobs: stuffing and licking 1,000 envelopes for a local agency. At a penny apiece, it was far faster to lick the envelopes than use a wet sponge. It’s amazing we didn’t end up with brain damage from all that glue. I distinctly remember our little tongues desperately trying to produce saliva after the first hour. Olof, meanwhile, was working in the family hardware store for $1 per hour where he learned to mix paint, make keys, and had the sum total of his sex education in the pipe-fitting department. Over the years, I did the standard babysitting, retailing, and waitressing ($.53 an hour before taxes, $.45 after, gold nylon uniform: $20). I spent one summer as a clerk-typist for Scholastic Magazines in their book division in the pre-word processor days typing endless clean copies
(with eight carbons) of a book called “No Hitter” about all the no-hitter baseball games up to that point. (It’s on Amazon for $.01, and no, don’t send me a copy. I’ve read it. 11 times.) I hate to start comments with the words “kids today” but truly, kids today have no idea what a boon to humanity the word processor was. Space travel and penicillin have nothing on it. I can say with some conviction: a world without carbon paper is truly a better place. Olof and I used to like to play “who had the worst summer job?” One thing about horrible summer jobs is that wretchedness quickly becomes relative. Olof worked one summer as a roofer in the East Bay’s brutal 100-degree summer heat, in a perpetual knee-crippling crouch position pounding nails hour after hour. The next summer, concluding that anything indoors had to be better, he scored a job as summer vacation help cleaning toilets at the Pittsburgh, California steel mill. Even though it required an investment in a hardhat and steel-toed boots, it was out of the hot sun and paid union wages. Relative to roofing, what was not to like?
My worst summer job by far was proofreading telephone books. And yes, this is a job, and yes, for some people it was a career. People get really touchy if their name or address or particularly phone number is listed incorrectly in the phone book, so some human — that would have been me — sat there cross-checking the microscopically-printed galleys line by line with the typewritten list. I’ve observed over the years that career counselors don’t list 90 percent of jobs that people actually end up doing. I’m trying to imagine, for example, some perky high school student’s yearbook listing: “Future goal: career in the telephone book proofreading industry.” For both sets of our parents, summer employment provided cash for the expenses we were expected to pay, but I think they regarded it as character building as well. Not that I was ever inclined to be rude to waiters or sales clerks, but working in those fields gives you a new respect for the job. Forget two year’s mandatory military service. Everyone should be required to work retail. I mention all this because I often hear parents say at this time of year that they don’t think it’s worth having their kids take a $10 an hour menial job when they could be doing something educational. Both Olof’s and my parents would have said
that it’s all how you define “educational.” Of course, there’s no requirement that summer jobs have to be ill paid and boring — even if many of them are. My older son, a diver, was lucky enough to combine a life passion with income by supplying giant keyhole limpets to a Scripps Oceanography researcher. And a highpaying job can be pretty miserable too, as my younger son discovered during a career-goal-changing Summer From Hell working 100-hour weeks for an investment banking firm. Still, I think some of the best education he received was three summers earlier working as a minimum-wage juice bar employee delivering custom wheat grass combinations to downtown La Jolla business folks. He said he’d never felt so invisible. So are we better or even different people for our summer job experience? Different, certainly. Both Olof and I also would agree that most of our summer jobs were excellent incentives to pursue higher education in the hope of never ever doing any of these jobs again. Just as important as knowing what you want to do in life is knowing what you really, really don’t. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light.

The dining room at Solana Beach Fish House is filled with fishing boatinspired decor.
Diners are hooked on fare at Solana Beach Fish House By Kelley Carlson fter 20 years in business, the Solana Beach Fish House continues to reel in customers. Locals embrace the familyowned-and-operated eatery, with its laidback atmosphere, cold pints of beer and fresh seafood. “We attract a mom-and-pop-style crowd,” said Manager Jehan Kasto. It’s also a favorite stop for people on their way to the Del Mar racetrack during the racing season — many will park at the Solana Beach train station, walk across the street to the Fish House for a meal or drink, then take the double-decker buses to spend a day at the seaside oval. The fare is prepared in various styles, from Mexican to “mesquite char-grilled.” There’s a wide variety, from sandwiches, pastas and salads, to tacos, burritos, and fish and chips. About 85 percent of the fish items are grilled and nothing is prepackaged, according to Kasto. There are nearly a dozen seafood cocktails and appetizers to whet the appetite, from crab cakes to buffalo chicken wings. Soups can also be a starter, or served as a main course, including New England Clam

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:
Fish House’s Curry Sauce Chowder, which Kasto touts as “one of the best around,” and the Fish House Cioppino, a customer favorite that is so chock-full of seafood that it’s more like a stew than a soup. Lunch specials are offered 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, and range from $6.99 to $7.99. Among the selections are Blackened Fish Burrito, Philly Cheese Steak and the Fried Oyster Sandwich. One of the most in-demand midday
entrees is the Surf & Turf Burrito, filled with carne asada, shrimp, cabbage and cilantro lime salsa, with rice and beans. Toward evening, the crowd seems to favor the Teriyaki Salmon Grilled Kabob, featuring skewers of large and flaky pieces of fish interspersed with onions, zucchini and green peppers, and glazed with the sweet sauce. An entree that’s popular at all times of the day is the Paella. Each forkful contains saffron rice and some variety of seafood, whether it’s mussels, shrimp, scallops, clams, calamari or fish. The dish is further enhanced with chicken-based sausage, green olives and other assorted vegetables. Another “go-to” for patrons is the fish and chips section of the menu. The fish is cut to size and dipped in a beer batter, then fried in cholesterol-free oil. Solana Beach Fish House also has selections such as burgers (including cajun shrimp, salmon, scallop, veggie and beef); pasta (from linguini with clams to angel hair pasta with tomato, basil and garlic sauce); and sandwiches on sourdough (such as herb-marinated or barbecue chicken breast, and smoked fish). u

isten up, all manly outdoor chefs! It’s time to earn your grilling stripes by donning a kitschy machismo apron slugged with such slogans as, “WEINIES RULE,” along with transferring the heat, smoke, mess and heavy-duty implements to the backyard. Here are some cookout trends for your gustatory amazement on July 4th and throughout the summer.
Dog Days of Summer According to Humphrey Bogart, “a hot dog at the ballpark was better than a steak at the Ritz.” Today’s charcuterie has become a gourmet-art-and-science serving an assortment of sausage sensations that are truly Ritz-worthy: n Try an uncured Peking duck dog topped with caramelized onions drenched in hoison sauce and swathed in a sesame egg bun. n Or grill lamb links in crunchy sheepcasing slathered with mint jalapeno jelly in a toasted baguette. n Chicken bratwursts are blended with everything from black truffles to exotic mushrooms. n For a gamy change-up, there’s sweet and spicy venison with dried cherries and

chilies, rabbit with pork and tangy ginger, and wild boar-and-sage sausages.
Walk the Plank Natural aromatic wood planks infuse fish and fowl, meat and vegetables with a woodsy, smoky flavor while keeping them moist and tender. Alder wood pairs well with chicken and seafood, cedar nicely compliments pork, beef, poultry and fish, while maple is ideal for pork, poultry and seafood. Also toss some fresh rosemary sprigs, bay leaves, orange rinds or a whole lime into the glowing embers before grilling to add a zesty zip to your vittles. Brand Recognition Hand-forged, cast iron branding implements let you put your mark on a prime piece of meat. Initials, symbols and sports team logos are just a few ways to customize your carnivorous dishes. Smokin’ in the Boys’ Room For those who don’t do grilling, smoking is a nice alternative to impart a rich mahogany color, fall-off-the-bones tenderness and robust flavor to ribs, beef,

For a strong, smoky flavor use mesquite; oak for subtler notes; hickory is ideal for red meat; while apple wood has sweet undertones that compliment pork or poultry. Smokers — whether wood-fired, gas, electric, charcoal or digital — cook meats at low temperatures over long cycles. The grilling process uses temperatures of 400-degrees F or higher, whereas smoking cooks at moderate temperatures ranging 200 to 275-degrees F. For robust cuts, patience is required as it takes about 1.5
hours of smoking for each pound of meat.
To the nth degree Take your fish or meat’s temperature to ensure it has been cooked thoroughly and is safe to eat. Beef, veal and lamb should reach at least 145-degrees F; same temperature for pork, although the latter has to take a short nap before eating; poultry is safe at 165-degrees F, while scaled fish should be cooked internally to 145-degrees F. u — For additional grilling recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

SIBYL REDUX Artist brings ‘Books, Prints, Collages & Then Some’ to Athenaeum deeply strange, natural pools she swam in while exploring Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula. Inside the cenote, in the place of honor, is her latest artist’s book. “I’ve done three big books about water,” she said. “One about La Jolla Cove, one about pool swimming, and now ‘Cenotes,’ which is being unveiled for the first time at the Athenaeum.” Rubottom, co-founder of Bay Park Press, a
small press known for its beautifully-crafted artists’ books, has another new book on display, her second collaboration with her firstborn son, poet Otis Rubottom. “The Second Quarter” is a quartet of poems about his wife and young son; also on view is “The First Quarter,” which includes one poem dedicated to his father, and another to his mother, who designed and illustrated both books.

(Beverly Beesemeyer)
The Book Arts Shrine at ‘SIBYL REDUX.’
Sibyl Rubottom
“They were a lot of work, but he’s worth it,” she said. “I wouldn’t do it if he wasn’t such a good poet.” Rubottom had her first Athenaeum show, titled “1x1 and then some,” 24 years ago. REDUX, which means brought back or revived, brings back some of her favorite themes: water, astronomy, botanicals, typography and ... elephants! Why elephants? “I like ’em!” she said. There are 36 pieces in “SIBYL REDUX,” including prints that illustrate dream states and collages that re-imagine Himalayan maps. The “Then Some” part of the show includes iPad drawings — Rubottom loves her iPad — and a wholly delightful Book Arts Shrine, her personalized, portable spin on the kinds of idiosyncratic collections that were popular from the 16th through late-19th centuries and known as “cabinets of curiosity.” Originally, Rubottom wanted her own
“cabinet” to carry samples of her books to her classes. It turned into a repository of books and objects she loves, a box of treasures, roughly 35x14-inch, that sits on a red wagon, with color wheels on its wheels. “It’s a traveling workspace I can bring from village to village, as the Tibetans do with prayer altars when on pilgrimages through the high Himalayas,” Rubottom said. u n IF YOU GO: “SIBYL REDUX: Books, Prints, Collages, & Then Some” is on view through July 26 at Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, 1008 Wall St. Hours are 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday; 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Wednesday. Closed Sunday and Monday. Also showing are selected books from Bay Park Press and prints by Bay Park Press interns Leah Goren, Anthony Lukens and Morgan Miller III. (858) 454-5872. ljathenaeum.org

During World War II, a select group of young women pilots became pioneers, heroes, and role models. They were the Women Airforce Service Pilots, WASP’s as they were known, the first women in history trained to fly American military aircraft. The WASP program was born in 1942 to create a corps of female pilots able to fill all types of flying jobs at home, thus freeing male military pilots to travel to the front. Thirty-eight WASPS were killed in service in World War II. But they were long considered civilians, not members of the military, and thus were not entitled to the pay and benefits given to men. The WASP’s were afforded veteran status in 1977 after a long fight. It’s estimated that about 100 of the more than 1,000 WASPs are still alive. Seniors Helping Seniors is proud to serve one of these brave women, Beverly Beesemeyer, and honors her service to our country as we celebrate Independence Day. In 2010, Beverly, along with 174 of her colleagues, received the Congressional Gold Medal, one of the highest civilian awards in the United States. Beverly kept her pilot’s license until the ‘80s and confesses to “rubbernecking” anytime a big plane flies by. “It’s impossible to tell you what it’s like flying in the clouds,” she said. Even six decades after suiting up with fellow WASPs, Beesemyer has not forgotten the camaraderie of the experience. A framed drawing of the WASP winged-gremlin mascot designed by Walt Disney still hangs on the wall in her upstairs office along with a bronze replica of the Congressional Gold Medal. Seniors Helping Seniors caregivers have helped Beverly, who turns 96 on August 25, as she catalogues her mementos and records to provide to museum and university historical collections. They also assist Beverly with her daily activities, drive her to appointments, and prepare meals, which Beverly describes as “the best.” Beverly has been a client for over two years, “ I am so happy with the services Seniors Helping Seniors provides, they do everything and I don’t have to worry about a thing.” “Beverly is a delight, one of our most popular clients among our senior caregivers, who understand and value the sacrifice Beverly and her fellow WASP’s made during WWII,” said Sue Erskine, co-owner of Seniors Helping Seniors, serving San Diego and Orange County. I enjoy visiting Beverly as she has a wicked sense of humor and a tremendously positive outlook on life.” Learn more about the WASP program at www.wingsacrossamerica.us. Seniors Helping Seniors, the concept is simple yet powerful, we match seniors that need some assistance with seniors that are active and want to help. Accepting help is easier when the companion or caregiver is a peer who can relate on a personal level, someone who understands the desire to remain independent. We carefully match our caregivers to the needs, personality, interests and cultural background of our clients. Services are affordable and our pricing structure is simple with no minimum hours required. Call us today and we’ll come out and talk with you to discuss your needs - 800-481-2488.

private boarding and preparatory school with extensive equestrian facilities, including 26,000 acres of riding trails. There she learned various rodeo skills, also picking up dressage and English style riding at other points in her youth. “My father told me to get into racing horses, because people that have racehorses can afford paintings,” said Waddell, who continued to ride while a student at Sweet Briar College, a women’s liberal arts college in Virginia. There, she returned to riding in the more accepted English style. “She wasn’t real well liked by the other
hoity-toity, super-proper ladies there, because she’s walking around in cowboy boots and roping goats,” quipped husband Jim Waddell. Although she studied art in college, Waddell said she chose to major in economics, “because I thought it would look better on my resume.” No shrinking violet, she landed her first job — a nearly two-year internship with National Geographic magazine in Washington, D.C. — by walking up to the editor and asking for work when he visited the Sweet Briar campus.

far from her side, her realist paintings often mirroring her life pursuits. In the early 1980s, Waddell met with President Ronald Reagan and was commissioned to paint a portrait of him on his horse, “Little Man,” by the President’s Council on Physical Fitness (then chaired by Waddell’s former father-in-law, legendary NFL coach, George Allen). The original painting hung in the White House and is today displayed at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley.
“The only thing I could really say to him when I met him was, ‘You’re my hero,’ ” said Waddell, who has resided in south Bird Rock for the past 28 years with current husband, Jim Waddell. “I really liked him. I thought he was an amiable guy and a good politician.” Waddell’s work can also be found in the private collections of the Scripps and DuPont families, and of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Jr. Waddell, who has won awards for her equestrian-themed paintings, attended the renowned Orme School of Arizona, a

a defense contractor, Waddell took her parents advice and moved to England to pursue a modeling career, landing work around the globe for Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior and Vogue, residing in Tokyo for a spell. She returned to the United States when George Allen, Jr. asked her to marry him. Allen, whom she met in college, would later go on to become Governor of Virginia and a U.S. Senator. After several years, Waddell found the life of a politician’s wife wasn’t for her, and separated from Allen, moving to San Diego
to live with her brother on their parents’ yacht, “Shear Terror.” “I like it here; I just never went back,” said Waddell, whose parents, Penelope and Jack Rubel, owned a summer home in La Jolla Shores at the time. From her earliest moments here, Waddell developed a passion for sailing that would be rendered onto many of her canvases. Over the years she would sail with Dennis Conner in Newport, California and race in the Molokai Channel near Oahu, Hawaii inspiring paintings of the maxi boats, “Kialoa” and “Windward Passage.”
“I was going to have to move, so he bought it from me to keep me in town for one more month,” Waddell recalled, pointing to the Kentucky Derby scene, rendered in oil on canvas. “And he doesn’t even like horses.” Jim Waddell added, “I was not a painting collector, but I thought, ‘I’ve got to do something here.’ It wasn’t too long after that that I proposed.” Anne and Jim Waddell have two adult sons, Cooper and Jack. Anne’s paintings can be viewed and purchased on her website, annewaddell.com u
While working at an art gallery in downtown La Jolla, Waddell met her current husband, a self-described surf fanatic who was then working at Paine Webber, directly upstairs from the gallery. “I’d walk by when I’d go down for lunch across the street and I’d see her there and I thought, ‘Man, she’s a good looking girl. I might have to go in there and give her my business card,’ ” Jim Waddell recalled. “I basically stole her away from her sailor boyfriend.” Today, a painting above the fireplace mantel in the Waddell’s home is a testament to their enduring love.

Romance, then and now, unfolds in new offering at North Coast Rep By Diana Saenger Has the art of romance changed from the days when face-to-face meetings were the way to woo, and been replaced with social media and cell phones as the harbingers of love? Playwright Barry Harman explores the question in “Romance, Romance,” nominated for six Tony Awards in 1988 and opening July 9 at North Coast Repertory Theatre in Solana Beach. Director Rick Simas said he saw the show on Broadway years ago and mentioned it when NCRT Artistic Director David Ellenstein asked him if he knew a good musical to add to this season. Simas has directed many plays at NCRT, including “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” “Dames at Sea, “Man with a Load of Mischief,” as well as assorted others at local and national venues. He earned a Ph.D. in Dramatic Arts from UC Berkeley, has been a faculty member of the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco, and at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York. Simas has also taught in San Diego State University’s MFA Musical Theatre Program. “This is the kind of play that theater patrons respond to,” he said. “It’s a unique two-act musical. The first act is based on French writer Arthur Schnitzler’s one-act play, ‘The Little Comedy,’ set in late 19th century Vienna. The second act is based on Jules Renard’s 1898 play, ‘Le pain de ménage’ or ‘Household Bread,’ updated by
Choreographer Jill Gorrie collaborates with director Rick Simas on the musical ‘Romance, Romance,’ at North Coast Rep. Aaron Rumley
Barry Harman to the late 1980s and set in the Hamptons.” The plot of “Romance, Romance” centers on two married couples in their 30s, who are spending a summer together in a rented cottage, and who eventually find themselves shifting from harmless flirtations with opposite spouses to possible affairs. The second act is modernized to today, since cell phones and social media have made such an impact on relationships. Simas points out that in the past, when people wrote letters to each other, as during WWII, they got to know each other even better through written communications. “You were able to reveal more because you didn’t have a face-to-face conversation and could really open up and say what you felt,” Simas said. “ ‘Romance, Romance’ dives into the difference between friendship, marriage,
romance, love lost, love rekindled, and keeping love alive in a relationship in 1988 when no cell phones or social media were around. We do this with a remarkable cast — Jeffrey Scott Parsons, Lance Arthur Smith, Jill Townsend and Melissa Wolfklain, and wonderful, creative dance numbers by teaching artist, choreographer and my collaborator, Jill Gorrie.” Gorrie’s credits include national and international work, and NCRT plays. She was Resident Director-ChoreographerCasting Associate of the international production of “Grease.” She earned her BFA degree in Dance from NYU/Tisch School of the Arts, and her MFA degree in Musical Theatre from San Diego State University. Gorrie has been a faculty member of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy and CAP21 in New York, and has taught master dance
classes throughout the country and Europe. Simas describes her as “an amazing dancer with a great vocabulary of styles. “Everyone will enjoy the musical numbers,” Simas promised. “In the first act are two big numbers — a masquerade waltz and a polka. A jazz quartet opens act two and two decrepit people on walkers do a big tap number.” Although it’s a big challenge to present songs of different eras for different actors in an intimate space, Gorrie drove right into the task. “I start with research of the time period and where it takes place, and focus on the vernacular dance steps of that time,” she said. “Fortunately, we have amazing archives here at the theater. I also look at videos and DVDs from different times.” Gorrie hopes the music by Keith Herrmann with more current songs will draw a younger crowd to the see the play. Yet she agrees there’s something for everyone in this show. “The first act will appeal more to the more mature audience — although they will also enjoy the second one,” she said. “The younger crowd will relate more to the second act because we are incorporating the new technology of my generation, which should have the mature patrons laughing.” u n IF YOU GO: “Romance, Romance” runs July 9-11 at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets: $40-$57. (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org

with their kids. You might not have planned for this when you bought your place. However, instead of uprooting completely or feeling cramped, you can look into adding an extra bedroom, and if the plumbing allows, it can include a bathroom. More sunlight: Generally less expensive than other home additions, a sunroom has many benefits. Natural light is so important. Studies show that it improves our mood, it promotes healing, makes us smarter (a study showed that test scores were higher among students when their classes were illuminated by natural light) and makes us more productive (a study found programmers in offices with natural light spent more time at their computers than those in offices without windows). Sunrooms can also add natural light to surrounding rooms. More luxury: If you’re at that point in your
life when you feel like you deserve a little more luxury, why not build that walk-in closet that you’ve always dreamed of or that luxury bathroom with the giant, gorgeous shower and his and her sinks? If you are considering a home addition, it’s important to remember that a home addition that isn’t designed and planned well can look awkward. It might not match the style or shape of the existing house. It’s also important to make sure that all home additions adhere to San Diego building codes. If they don’t, you will have to pay fines, and you may have to return the home to its original state. At Murfey Construction, we are well-versed in great design principles and San Diego building codes and regulations.

une 19 marked the last day of school for students at San Diego French-American school. Students and staff celebrated the special day with the annual Kermesse, a festival of fun rides, face painting, a petting zoo, a dunk tank, bouncy houses, a live band and local vendor booths with a variety of food and crafts. This year, the school borrowed some of the rides from the San Diego County Fair, which made the experience even more enjoyable for the children. This end-of-the-year tradition honors students for their outstanding achievements and transitions them into the summer months ahead. — Emily Sims

From 10 Questions, B1 Who or what inspires you? My fellow Junior Leaguers and the legacy created by our sustaining members. The League’s effort to develop women leaders and create positive change has inspired me from the time I was a young girl, helping my mom run the League’s Rummage Sale at the Del Mar Fairgrounds to working with our current, passionate and dedicated members to raise funds needed to improve the lives of San Diego’s transitionage foster youth. Generations of women volunteers have dedicated so much time, talent and energy to serve thousands of San Diego’s most deserving, and I am honored to be a part of the League’s 85-year legacy. No one can do everything, but everyone can do something to make a difference in our community! If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Zach, of course, plus, Elizabeth I, Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, Richard Branson, Roger Federer, Martha Stewart and Mindy Kaling. What is it that you most dislike? Selfishness. What is your most-prized possession? Time. Balancing a rigorous schedule as a civil litigator
with my commitment to raising funds for the League, makes the free time I have to spend with family and friends all the more precious. What are your five favorite movies of all time? “Casablanca,” “Pride and Prejudice” (BBC version), “Sabrina,” “Love Actually” and “A Good Year.” What do you do for fun? I love to spend weekends reading in the pool, paddleboarding, hiking down to Black’s or strolling the Village. And, I always make time for wining and dining, whether it is drumming up support for our League’s Food & Wine Festival, meeting friends at the best happy hours, sampling new restaurants or enjoying a leisurely meal at one of our favorite haunts. What is your motto or philosophy of life? Make it work! What would be your dream vacation? Traveling has given me the opportunity to experience so many unique and memorable adventures — like riding an elephant in the River Kwai, lying down on a tiger in a Buddhist temple, playing with cheetahs in South Africa, and walking with lions in Zimbabwe — so my dream vacation would have to be equally intrepid: I would love to go trekking with gorillas in Uganda. u

Peter Middleton and Middleton & Associates’ 30 independent sales associates are being welcomed to Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, which is part of NRT LLC, the nation’s largest residential real estate brokerage company. “Peter Middleton and his team are iconic throughout La Jolla and San Diego County,” said Jamie Duran, president of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Orange County, Desert Resorts and Greater San Diego. “We’re excited to welcome them and the strength they bring with their wide variety of talents, from property development to multi-million dollar representation. Adding to an already impressive portfolio, this acquisition will have a significant impact on La Jolla’s elite real estate market.” Middleton & Associates has made a name
for itself by quickly becoming one of the top five La Jolla brokerages since opening in 2010. In the past year, the brokerage completed 188 transactions totaling over $120 million in sales volume. “The agents who have been with us for years are like family to me, and I couldn’t be more proud of the growth and accomplishments we have achieved together,” said Peter Middleton, founder and owner of Middleton & Associates. “I grew up in a real estate family and have seen many different brokerages operating at many different levels. I always knew that if I ever agreed to an acquisition with a larger firm that it would only be with a top brand like Coldwell Banker that operates with the same tremendous level of standards as we have prided ourselves on at Middleton & Associates.” Justin DeCesare, CEO of Middleton & Associates added, “This acquisition comes at a great time. Every aspect of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, from technology to training, is suited for today’s real estate sales associate. I’m excited as to what this means for our associates and the growth of their collective businesses.” u
Matthew Holten joins Berkshire Hathaway’s La Jolla office Nicki Marcellino, manager of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties’ La Jolla office and vice president of the San Diego region, announced that Matthew Holten has joined her team. “Matthew’s diverse background in mortgages, sales and negotiations are valuable assets for his clients,” she said. “These skills, coupled with his enthusiasm and intelligence, will benefit his clientele and our office.” Holten comes to real estate with a background in mortgage lead generation, insurance sales, and a successful family tradition in real estate. Over his career, he has developed skills in contract negotiation, customer service, and property maintenance. Holten is able to leverage these skills to assist buyers and sellers in streamlining transactions and
effectively staging and marketing properties. Holten cites his family’s involvement in real estate for his interest in the profession. “My father was a successful broker for more than 40 years,” Holten said. “From him, I learned that dedicated customer service, a tenacious work ethic, market knowledge and negotiating skills are keys to successfully assisting clients.” Holten attended MiraCosta College, where he Matthew trained in Piano Holten Performance. A part-time professional keyboard player, he also is a certified personal trainer and a seconddegree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Holten can be contacted at (760) 688-5796 or mattholten@bhhscal.com u
