By Pat Sherman The day after La Jollans celebrated their country’s independence with a fireworks display at the Cove, the United States Postal Service (USPS) taped a three-page notice to a counter inside the Wall Street post office that many La Jollans consider decidedly unpatriotic — USPS’s “final determination” of plans to sell the historic building at 1140 Wall St. Community members, who have been working for more than a year and a half SAVE THE POST OFFICE UPDATE to prevent the sale and keep postal services in the building, reacted swiftly to the announcement, which comes at the conclusion of the USPS’s review of more than 70 appeals filed in response to the planned sale of the building, and relocation of its services. Leslie Davis, chair of the La Jolla Historical Society’s Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force, called the announcement “a frontal assault on communities across the United States.” She said communities without the funds to fight the USPS through legal means will suffer the same fate as La Jolla. “The systematic destruction of the postal system continues,” Davis said. “The USPS has been effective in silencing the

Head injury leads Hannah Johnson on crusade for helmets

By Pat Sherman As the city prepares to demolish the old, condemned lifeguard tower at Children’s Pool beach, questions remain about the future of the Seal Cam mounted atop the old tower — particularly, who will be tasked with monitoring the streaming video used to file reports on the harbor seal colony there? And how much money will the city allocate for this service? At the June 24 La Jolla Parks and Beaches meeting, Board Chair Dan Allen reported that in July the City of San Diego Park and Recreation department would assume operation of the Seal Cam at Children’s Pool beach, as stated in a monitoring plan issued by the city in May. The city’s partner in the project, Sara Wan of the WAN Conservancy (which paid for the Seal Cam, its installation and some hired camera monitors) told La Jolla Light she believes her nonprofit See Seal Cam, A7

By Ashley Mackin Until recently, Hannah Johnson was a very active 12 year old. She liked to skateboard, surf and run every day. When out riding, she always wore a helmet. But on May 3, while skateboarding with friends, she couldn’t find a helmet and decided to go without wearing one — just this once. That one time, she fell and cracked her skull from the base of her left ear to the top of her head. Though slowly on the path to recovery, at one point, doctors weren’t sure she was going to make it. Now, she’s on a mission to make sure all children wear a helmet every time they go out on a board, bike or blades. With her parents, Paul and Celeste Johnson (owners of Sushi on the Rock in La Jolla) she Celeste Johnson and her daughter Hannah

UCSD professor found dead in East County A 65-year-old La Jolla woman was found dead Friday morning, July 5, along a hiking trail several miles from the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, police said. The body of UC San Diego Professor Ellen Comisso was found in the brush by two hikers on the San Pasqual Clevenger Trail, part of the San Dieguito River Park. UCSD Professor Comisso’s profile on Ellen Comisso UCSD’s website said the political science professor and 1977 Yale University graduate’s field of interest was comparative politics and political economy, specializing in European politics and particularly, in Eastern European affairs. Her publications included two books, one dealing with the economics and politics of self-management in Titoist, Yugoslavia, and the other analyzing economic strategy in socialist states. The county medical examiner has not determined a cause of death, though the case is not being handled by SDPD’s homicide squad, which suggests foul play is not suspected. — City News Service

Pizza shop robbery foiled: No cash Two gun-wielding men attempted to rob a California Pizza Kitchen restaurant on Villa La Jolla Drive near UCSD Sunday afternoon, July 7, but the business had no money and the would-be robbers ran off empty-handed, San Diego police Officer David Stafford said. Police said the suspects were both dressed in black clothing and had their faces covered. No one was injured, Stafford said. — CNS

La Jolla Shores drowning believed to be suicide According to NBC San Diego news, authorities say autopsy results show a 42-year-old man found off La Jolla Shores, with wounds suggesting he was attacked by a shark, actually committed suicide. Brandon Beaver, 42, was found May 9, face down in the water with bite marks. However, the autopsy showed that Beaver was dead before being bitten. “There was no evidence whatsoever that

his death was due to shark attack, as all findings indicated postmortem marine animal activity,” the San Diego County medical examiner’s office wrote. Beaver, who reportedly had a history of mental illness, was not under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of his death, the autopsy revealed, though authorities had earlier said there were clues that his death may have been a suicide. Beaver reportedly took off his wetsuit while he was out in the water, exposing himself to possible hypothermia, then tied it around his surfboard “in a very purposeful manner,” San Diego Lifeguards Lt. John Everhart said.

From Post Office, A1 national media on the topic of closures and relocations and has been successful in convincing the general public that they are in financial crisis — which they are not. “Without the truth becoming widespread and without the funds to fight the USPS through legal means, this result will be repeated over 3,000 times during the next five years as CBRE (the company hired by USPS to broker post office facility sales) carries out their contract to dispose of the USPS real estate holdings, which were once owned by the people of the United States.” For several years the USPS has been selling post office buildings across the country in an effort to raise cash. Though USPS officials say a decline in first class mail, as well as competition from parcel services such as FedEx and UPS, is to blame for the postal service’s financially beleaguered state, many people say it is the direct result of an unprecedented 2006 congressional mandate that required the USPS to pre-fund health benefits for future retirees at a cost of $5.5 billion per year (hastening the quasi-governmental agency’s bankruptcy). On March 22, the USPS announced it had approved

The United States Postal Service has issued a ‘final determination’ on the fate of La Jolla’s historic post office stating that, after considering more than 70 appeals, USPS will move forward with the sale of the building and relocation of its services. Susan DeMaggio relocation of retail services offered at the Wall Street post office to an yet-to-be determined location, and that the USPS plans to put the building on the market in a way that would allow for USPS to potentially lease back a portion of the building so that postal services can remain in place — a strategy

favored by the La Jolla Historical Society and many public officials who appealed the announcement, including Congress members Susan Davis and Scott Peters, Mayor Bob Filner and City Councilmember Sherri Lightner. Task force vice-chair Joe LaCava said he was “extremely disappointed”

by the USPS’s decision but not surprised. “Despite their response they clearly did not listen to the thoughtful input by the community,” LaCava said. “Further, they continue to ignore win-win solutions that resolve the community’s concerns and are

respectful of the USPS’s financial issues.” In the final determination notice, USPS Vice President of Facilities Tom Samara writes, in part, that “while I am sympathetic to the concerns raised, upon a review of the facts ... I will not set aside the Postal Service’s decision.” Though Samara concludes the letter stating that, “there is no right to further administrative or judicial review of this decision,” LaCava vowed, “While the decision to relocate may have been administratively resolved, the next steps are still in play. This fight is not over.” Asked when the post office will be listed for sale, USPS spokesperson Diana Alvarado responded via e-mail that the USPS has regulatory requirements to satisfy before it can determine “whether or when to market the La Jolla Post Office property.” She did not clarify what those requirements are by press time.

www.lajollalight.com From Seal Cam, A1 organization will continue overseeing Seal Cam monitoring, though Lee Burdick, the mayor’s Director of Special Projects and Legal Affairs, said the city is still evaluating whether it is more cost effective to monitor the Seal Cam with city employees, or to outsource the job to WAN Conservancy. Burdick said WAN Conservancy’s original estimate to continue monitoring the Seal Cam was $283,000 per year. “We have asked them to go back and evaluate that in light of things like the beach being closed at night during pupping season,” Burdick said. “Do you really need to monitor (at night)? Would that cut costs? “So they’re evaluating their budget. Then, once we get their budget, we’re going to have to look at the expenses that would be involved with the city doing it, and then figure out what is the most cost-effective way to do it for the citizens of San Diego. “At the end of the day,” Burdick said, “it’s (up to) the city council as to whether they want to budget the money for that purpose and if they believe that’s a good use of the city’s dollars.” The California Coastal Commission (CCC) required the monitoring plan as a condition for issuing a coastal development permit for the year-round guideline rope spanning Children’s Pool beach (intended to keep humans a safe distance from seals). The three-year plan requires that the city measure the number of seal harassment instances at Children’s Pool, including humans disrupting the marine mammals’ behavior patterns, including migration, breathing, nursing, breeding, feeding or sheltering. The plan also states that “authorized data collectors” are instructed to report harassment observed via the Seal Cam, or shown to them in video or photograph form by random observers. Cases of harassment will be documented with other data — including the number and location of seals and humans on the beach at any given time — and submitted to the CCC’s executive director in an annual monitoring report, due one year to the date the CCC issued the coastal development permit (May 16, 2013). According to the plan,

data collectors will be trained by the park ranger assigned to Children’s Pool, and can include “any volunteers the ranger believes may be helpful in assisting in the data collection process” (wording which, presumably, allows for the use of those currently volunteering with, or in the employee of, the WAN Conservancy.) “I believe that it’s important to preserve, for the city, the discretion to achieve the Coastal Commission’s goals in the most cost effective manner,” Burdick said of the language. “We wanted to get a permit that allowed the city some discretion in deciding how we meet those compliance obligations.” CCC staff analyst Kanani Brown, told the Light the CCC board and its staff ecologist allowed for the use of volunteer monitors in the plan, due to the city’s “limited resources.” “This is a three-year permit,” Brown said. “If the city would like to continue this permit beyond three years it will have to continue to submit those (annual) monitoring reports.” Mayor Bob Filner assured the camera would remain in operation at Children’s Pool beach during demolition of the old tower and construction of the new. On Monday, Burdick said the Seal Cam will be mounted atop a construction trailer that will occupy a row of parking spaces during the work. Burdick said she is not sure whether the Seal Cam will be mounted atop the new tower, once complete, or in a different location. “I think that’s what everyone is looking toward, but that is such a long way off,” she said. “Whether we will have budget allocation by that point, whether the city will acquire the camera at that point, whether city employees will take over monitoring, it’s impossible to predict. We’re just trying to get through the next three or four months to get things to a stable place, and then reevaluate what we need based on changing circumstances.”

Further confusion over funding Mayor Bob Filner budgeted $50,000 for Seal Cam operations and monitoring in the city’s 2013-2014 fiscal year. Speaking with the La Jolla Light on June 28, Filner said the $50,000 was to cover the camera’s operational costs only and not to purchase the camera from the WAN Conservancy. “We are not purchasing it,” he said. “It’s theirs.” The mayor said he was unaware of a banner ad that has been on WAN Conservency’s website for months soliciting donations to “help keep this webcam operating” — despite his participation in a fundraiser on April 25 at Mangelsen Gallery in La Jolla that Sara Wan said brought in $5,000 to cover some of WAN Conservancy’s $40,000 camera costs. Sara Wan and her husband, Larry, declined to disclose how much they’ve raised for Seal Cam operations through their website banner thus far, though on July 8 Sara Wan told the Light the Conservancy had raised far less than $25,000. “It’s a

losing proposition,” she said. “We have used our own money to get us to this point.” She added that the amount would be made public as part of the organization’s next tax filing because, at present, the Wans feel the project has been unfairly scrutinized by media and pro-beach advocates. Burdick said the city does not know how much WAN Conservancy has raised through its website, though she said at some point during their negotiations with the city, that amount would be disclosed. “That, too, is going to have an impact on the negotiations,” she said. “Obviously, if they can get a grant to fully fund the thing, then the city might be off the hook to pay $50,000. But if they cannot and the mayor feels that this is a very valuable humanitarian service, we’re going to need to look at it and do that cost effectiveness comparison and analysis.” Should the monitoring be done by paid city employees, Filner told the Light last week they could be from Park and Rec or City TV (the city’s municipal government cable access channel). “The aim is to continue to try and operate (the camera) without the necessity of volunteers,” he said. To date, Burdick said the city has paid no money to WAN Conservancy for the Seal Cam or related expenses. “With respect to the

Feng Shui What can it do for my home?

Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese method of creating a harmonious environment. When China was under imperial rule, Feng Shui was a secret, known only to a handful commissioned with maintaining the health, wealth and power of the court. Today, Feng Shui is available to everyone. A few simple Feng Shui tips: 1) Your front door is considered the mouth of the life force of all things. Abundance, blessings, opportunities and good fortune enter through your front door. Make sure the entrance is swept clean and lit properly. 2) Chi energy is thought to be flushed away whenever there are drains. To keep good forces in, always put the toilet seat down and close the bathroom door. 3) The dining room symbolizes the energy and power of the family togetherness. Make sure it is attractively set and often use a tablecloth to soften harsh table corners. 4) The windows are considered to be the eyes of the home. They should always be clean and sparkling. Feng Shui experts can be hired to determine what aspects of your house are not in balance. Their goal would be to promote prosperity, good health and general well being by allowing the right energy to flow through your home.

$50,000 … we do anticipate some, if not all of that, will likely be paid to the WAN Conservancy to, first of all, relocate the camera during construction and continue to operate it,” she said. “How that money will be spent is currently in negotiation. We’re trying to set a scope of service. We’re looking at whether all of it will be necessary, or if additional funding will be necessary. … The only thing I am certain of is that the expenses associated with relocating it from the lifeguard tower to the construction trailer will be

paid as part of that $50,000 budget allocation.” Meanwhile, members of La Jolla’s Parks and Beaches (LJP&B), which has opposed the Seal Cam project since its installation, formed a subcommittee to draft a proposal for “improved” usage of the Seal Cam if and when Park and Rec staff takes over. LJP&B will submit details of its proposal, which is now circulating among members for approval, to Park and Rec at a later date. —Susan DeMaggio and Ashley Mackin contributed to this report.

Got ideas for alieving traffic in the Village? Parking Board seeks suggestions for use of funds

By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla Coastal Access and Parking Board (CAPB) met on July 2 to discuss its two-fold task of getting parking passes for Village employees and collecting alternative suggestions to the Coastal Commission’s (now defunct) proposed parking reservoir and shuttle system. CAPB will move forward by going to community planning groups and asking for their input. The money for these projects is set aside in the La Jolla Coastal Access Parking Fund, which was established through Coastal Commission-required contributions by office space developers in the 1970s and ’80s. The fund currently totals $400,000. Of that sum, $14,000 is designated for the Village parking pass program and approximately $276,000 is reserved for a shuttle program as once proposed by the Coastal Commission. CAPB Chair Dan Allen explained with the Village parking pass program, CAPB would sell discounted parking passes to employees of the Village that could be used in private garages and lots. CAPB was allocated the money needed to keep the program going for the next nine months. The hope is with employees parking in lots, there will be more on-street parking for visitors. With that job done, CAPB’s next task is to write two letters exploring the “remote parking reservoir and shuttle system” proposed by the Coastal Commission — one outlining why the plan is not feasible and the other, a list of alternatives. The Coastal Commission’s idea was to establish a parking area outside of La Jolla from which a shuttle could pick up and drop off passengers in town. The CAPB cited a study by the San Diego Metropolitan Transit Development Board,

Long lines of traffic heading into La Jolla Village from Torrey Pines Road are a daily occurrence. which determined that a shuttle was not practical due to high operating costs. Additionally, CAPB claimed MTS Bus Route 30, which commutes from downtown to UTC through La Jolla, accomplishes a task similar to the proposed shuttle, and furthermore, the remote parking area proposed was in Bird Rock where a traffic circle has since been installed. CAPB member Sheila Fortune said in addition to the Memorandum of Understanding being out-of-date, the amount allotted for the shuttle would not have yielded a selfsustaining program. CAPB said it will not use any of the shuttle funds until a more solid plan is developed. Now the Coastal Comission is asking CAPB

to explain why the plan could not be implemented today, with the hope that an alternative use for the funds could be found. In compliance with the second portion of its task, CAPB discussed alternatives to a shuttle system, and is reaching out to other community groups for suggestions, so it may make a formal recommendation for a replacement plan. Early ideas for allieviateing Village traffic include a bike rental system, a golf cart rental system, encouraged use of public transit, funds to MTS for enhanced service and/or installing electronic signs to indicate how many parking spaces are available at different lots around town. Citizens who would like to suggest

solutions are asked to attendany of the following meetings over the next couple of months. CAPB is open to ideas that could be combined with donations or grants. Fortune said if the community is “the squeaky wheel,” it could get the support needed to set a new plan in motion. n La Jolla Community Planning Association meets 6 p.m. the first Thursdays at the La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. n La Jolla Village Merchants Association meets 8:30 a.m. second Wednesdays at the Cuvier Club, 7776 Eads Ave. n La Jolla Town Council meets 5 p.m. second Thursdays at 1150 Silverado St. n More on La Jolla Coastal Access and Parking Board at lajollacpa.org/cap.html

Pizza truck serves up a slice of spice in La Jolla

By Ashley Mackin A La Jolla Shores husband-and-wife team are bringing gourmet pizza to town in their purple pizza purveyance, “Pizza Pazza.” In operation for almost a year, Karen and Mark DeSimone cruise La Jolla in their food truck, making profitable stops at the Museum of Contemporary Art’s summer Shore Thing and serving business lunches in the Village. Karen DeSimone said while most people define “gourmet pizza” as bread with unusual toppings, she defines it as having handcrafted dough and original combinations. She explained their dough ferments for 72 hours and is baked in their doubledecker bus on a two-inch-thick brick cooking surface. “We source only the finest and freshest ingredients and our dough is

all homemade by my husband, who is a self-taught chef,” she said. “He arduously studied the art of doughmaking for more than a year prior to opening Pizza Pazza Gourmet Food Truck. He grew up back East and is the pickiest eater ever! After trying most pizzerias from Orange County to San Diego and never finding any that were close to back East pizza quality and taste, he decided to learn how to create his own.” In addition to their pizza passion, the DeSimones are animal lovers, which is why they use humanely handled meats and donate 100 percent of proceeds from the sale of their Jojo garlic breadsticks to volunteer-based animal rescues.

Bird Rock Council considers waste-water recycling, unleashed dog problem By Pat Sherman During its July 2 meeting, the Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) heard a presentation on the city’s plan to purify waste water from homes and businesses for human consumption — a project commonly (and derisively) referred to as toilet-to-tap. Peter Martin, a senior water resources specialist with the San Diego Public Utilities Department, discussed the project, which involves building a reclamation plant and related infrastructure that the city estimates will cost about $369 million. Though there was much backlash to the

proposal when the city first proposed it a decade ago, Martin said a nearly identical system has been used successfully for the past five years in Orange County, and public support for recycled waste water is slowly growing statewide. Last summer, San Diego completed a oneyear test of its proposed waste water reclamation system at the city’s Water Purification Demonstration Project plant near UTC. The demonstration plant produced about 1 million gallons of recycled waste water per day during the trial, which was tested before being put back into the regular recycling

cost of energy (required) to pump that water down to Southern California,” he said. “The deltas and levies up in Northern California need a lot of repair.” Martin said the city council is still grappling with how to fund the project, which will cost about $2,000 per acre-foot of water, or a little less than the Carlsbad desalination project (about $2,300 per acre foot). However, officials estimate the project would eventually save taxpayers $1 billion by eliminating required upgrades to the Point Loma waste water plant. “Yes, it is going to be expensive, but that’s something that we all have to think about,” Martin said. “We’re getting close to where imported water costs are very similar to what this technology would cost.” Asked how the recycled waste water compares to current San Diego supplies — deemed one of the 10 worst in the country in a 2011 report due to the number of contaminants in it — Martin said, “I don’t want to say it’s a better quality — but it would be a good quality. “Because it has such low mineral content, it may help people’s washers and dryers or dishwashers last longer. ... “There’s a lot of municipalities around the state that are dealing with (water quality) issues that are way worse than ours,” he said. — The demonstration facility is open for tours.

system for use in irrigation and industry. Martin said results of the one-year waste water recycling demonstration found that the “overall water quality was exceptional,” “very similar to distilled water” and “met all the drinking water standards required by the state permitting authorities.” The proposal involves construction of an Advanced Water Purification Facility where normally treated waste water would undergo additional membrane filtration, UV radiation and reverse osmosis, as it did during the demonstration phase. Martin said the water is tested between each filtration step to assure each process is working as intended. The project would provide about 8 to 10 percent of the city’s water supply — or about 15 million gallons per day during the first phase, he said (a report by the Equinox Center estimates the project could eventually produce as much as 40 percent of the city’s water supply). Factoring in water treated at the proposed Carlsbad desalination plant (which Martin said would provide about 7 percent of the region’s water supply), such alternative water purification projects would significantly reduce the region’s reliance on water imported from Northern California (the cost of which Martin said has doubled in the past decade, and will likely double again in the next 10 years). “That has a lot to do with aging infrastructure … (as well as) the increasing

hospital for antibiotics. “There wasn’t much we could to in that instance, other than the sort of a routine quarantine of the dog,” she said, noting that there had been a previous incident with that dog, though it was not reported to police. “Because that first incident was not reported, animal services’ hands were somewhat tied,” Bell said. “So, if there is an incident please report it so it gets documented. Then, if there is a subsequent incident there’s going to be stronger action taken.” n Vandalism of bench: Board member Barbara Dunbar said a bench in front of Lupi Italian restaurant at 5518 La Jolla Blvd. has been vandalized four times in the past two

finding a competent, honest contractor. It is also available as an ebook and an app for smartphones. “Whenever I was doing a job one-on-one with somebody, I was able to help them navigate through (the process), but when you have a disaster or catastrophe where thousands of homes are impacted, there’s no

way any one person could share critical information with people,” he said, using the 2007 San Diego County wildfires as an example. He said there are shelters for those displaced by a disaster, and those have tables and tables of paperwork that people have difficulty managing. “It was all very confusing and people were

left shaking their heads,” he recalled. “The information either wasn’t pertinent to them or just didn’t make sense or they were overwhelmed.” Scott said it might come as a surprise that the biggest concern after a disaster is scam prevention. “Let’s say today, there’s a fire in La Jolla. The fire department is going to be called by the homeowner through 911. As soon as that 911 dispatcher calls the fire station and says there is a fire at 123 Prospect St., that radio message is going over public airwaves where people with scanners are listening and they are going to show up at the scene before the fire is even out,” he said. “Those people are typically the ones behind the scam. Some are good guys, some are bad guys, but a homeowner has no way of knowing which is which.” “The Red Guide” reveals five con-artist scams, common home repair and contractor scams, and lists who to call to verify a contractor’s license and where to report scams. Scott said the key to not getting scammed is not to make quick decisions. Another challenge for disaster survivors is maneuvering the insurance claim process. “Imagine if your house burned to the ground and all your personal belongings

By Ashley Mackin After 32 years as a fire restoration contractor, lifelong La Jollan Sean Scott said he’s seen a lot of tragedy — primarily, the challenges that come after a disaster strikes and people embark on the road to recovery. To aid and simplify that confusing and complicated process, Scott wrote a how-to book that was published with the financial help of the American Red Cross and San Diego Fire Chiefs Association. His “The Red Guide to Recovery,” is a stepby-step outline of what to do after any disaster — beginning with those heartwrenching first 24 hours when emotions run high and thinking is blurred. “People start off as survivors, and then weeks or months later, they become victims as a result of not knowing how to navigate through the insurance claim process. Many are taken advantage of by unscrupulous contractors and there are just so many pitfalls,” he said. “The Red Guide” offers tips on how to find trauma counseling, suggests things to consider before signing contracts and documents, and provides insight on obtaining immediate housing, federal assistance available, dealing with insurance forms and document replacement, and

inside were lost,” he said. “Your adjustor is going to come to you and say ‘we need an inventory of everything you had in your home; every CD, every utensil in your kitchen, food, clothes, shoes, toys, etc.” With most home insurance policies, a small amount of money is given immediately, and the rest comes after an inventory is taken and the insurance companies know how much to compensate. “On one hand, you’re thinking, ‘I don’t want to commit insurance fraud by stating things I don’t have,’ and then on this side, you see your insurance policy has a couple hundred thousand dollars worth of coverage to replace those things. So how do you maximize the benefits of your insurance if you can’t remember what you had?” For this reason, Scott also created the Personal Property Memory Jogger and Home Inventory Tool,

available free for download at TheRedGuideToRecovery.com It includes more than 6,000 common household items broken down by room (think holiday decorations and spices). “After downloading the spreadsheet, cross off what you don’t have and write in what you do have and take inventory before a disaster happens,” he said. That “disaster” can be anything from a flood to a fire to a theft. “The bottom line is that every household in America should have this tool because it’s not a matter of if people are going to need this, it’s when,” he said. — The book is available on Amazon.com and theredguidetorecovery.com for $19.95. Proceeds fund the donation and distribution of copies in cases of emergency. Scott said he is hopeful it may soon be available at Warwick’s.

Two views on historicity of La Jolla cottages Past

Future?

Charles Snell and his parents in front of their WindanSea cottage, 341 Playa del Sur, 1928.

n New evidence shows original cottage owners had role in WindanSea history By Leslie Davis La Jolla Historical Society Preservation Committee

original owners, William A. and Ruby Snell, had just visited friends in La Jolla and may be able to provide first-hand knowledge of the historic integrity of the cottages. The cottages’ integrity had been called into question by consultants hired by the current owners, resulting in city staff agreement. However, a phone call with Charles “Chuck” Snell, now living in Trinidad, California provided the truth. The cobble chimney and wall were in fact original. The shingled siding and roof were consistent with the original materials and the windows were the same openings as built in 1928 by his parents. But the real surprise was how significant Chuck’s family

e are writing to clarify the facts concerning our La Jolla property and our attempts to redevelop our home. The article in the June 27 edition of La Jolla Light, as well as prior articles, continue to leave out some key facts to fully understanding the situation. First off, when we purchased the property in 2009, we retained a Historical Attorney to determine if the property had any

historical significance and filed an application with the City of San Diego at a cost of nearly $1,000 to review the issue. After requiring an extensive report, the city formally cleared the property in late 2010 of any historical significance for a period of five years with no exceptions, and we then felt comfortable proceeding with our plans to develop our parcel — all well within the zoning restrictions of the property. We submitted for a Coastal Permit in 2012 to remove the two existing units and replace them with a new duplex structure. We waited to present to the La Jolla Planning Association until ALL issues with the city coastal permit review were cleared

Everett Stunz marks 50 years in bedding business with big sale By Marti Gacioch Everett Stunz, specializing in high-quality beds and luxurious bedding and bath products, is celebrating 50 years in business with a Summer Blowout Sale offering savings of up to 70 percent. Stunz, a German immigrant, opened the original store on Prospect Street in 1953 to sell the adjustable beds that he designed and manufactured. Over the years, the store expanded, necessitating three moves to achieve its current 4,400 square foot showroom. In the 1980s, the adjustable bed store transitioned to a luxurious bed linen store featuring the best in European and U.S. products. After Philip and Nicki Coller bought the store in 2005, they reorganized and simplified the business. Most of its inventory is conveniently located on site, offering a range and grades of bedding products. “The store is primarily a showroom now with about 20 beds with linens on display,” said Philip Coller, who is also president of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association. “About 60 to 70 percent of our space is dedicated to luxury linens, comforters, down and pillows.” Everett Stunz carries two bed brands:

Yves Delorme bedding is among the many offerings at Everett Stunz in La Jolla. Response Sleep System by Sharper Image and the Swedish Duxiana bed. Both rely heavily on the use of springs and provide great adjustability. The Duxiana carries a 20year warranty and the Sharper Image

Response Sleep System has a 25-year warranty. The Response Sleep System includes five different models of infinitely adjustable mattresses that may be remotely controlled like a TV.

“They can do the head up and the feet up, and they drop in the lumbar area and also provide massage and offer a zero-gravity mode that adapts to your body, so you don’t feel like you’re pressing on the bed much,” Coller said. He pointed out that an average California king bed has about 800 springs, but a Duxiana has about 4,500 springs that are layered so that the firmness can be adjusted by moving packages of springs to different locations. On a personal note, for Coller, high-quality bedding has always been essential. “I spend about eight hours in bed and have always insisted on the best sheets and bedding; they’re more important than a car to me,” he said. Everett Stunz features the world’s finest linens from dazzling Missoni prints to elegant Sferra designs and brilliant florals by Yves De Lorme and Fischbacher. New designs debut in the spring and fall every year, and the store receives the latest designs immediately. — Everett Stunz, 7616 Girard Ave., La Jolla. Hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. MondaySaturday.

La Jollans pledge $10 million matching gift to downtown library Irwin and Joan Jacobs Light File

La Jolla philanthropists Joan and Irwin Jacobs committed a $10 million matching gift to the San Diego Public Library Foundation for its downtown location, to encourage others to join present donors in financially supporting the new San Diego Central Library. The gift, announced July 3, will match dollar-for-dollar any new naming commitments up to $10 million, with name

specified by the donor, received before the library’s Sept. 28, 2013 opening, including multi-year pledges with first payment in 2013. A variety of unique naming opportunities remain available, including the auditorium, reading room, lobby, courtyard, art gallery and computer lab. The promised funds will complete the construction phase of the fundraising campaign and also enable

planned programming including financial literacy seminars, educational activities and cultural events. The new Central Library is a public-private partnership with more than 3,000 private donors providing one-third of the funding.

Kitchen remodels rank high in best investment return By Phoebe Chongchua Kitchen remodels can be one of the most rewarding projects for homeowners. A remodeled kitchen can provide comfort, functionality, and increased value upon resale. According to the 2013 Cost vs. Value Report by Remodeling and Realtor magazines, nearly 60 percent of expenses from a major kitchen remodel project is recouped. But not all kitchen remodels benefit the homeowner. Understanding how your lifestyle can impact your ideal kitchen can help ensure that your remodel creates the most comfort, functionality and value. The award-winning Marrokal Design & Remodeling team offers free seminars to help homeowners navigate the often complex remodeling process. Design Consultant, Mike Centrullo of Marrokal Design & Remodeling said that a kitchen remodel affects how people view an entire home. “The kitchen is one of the best remodeling projects to start with. You can walk into a home and everything else has been remodeled and if the kitchen hasn’t been remodeled, that can cause people to see the home as outdated. But if you walk into a home and only the kitchen has been remodeled, it sets an updated tone for the rest of the home because people will remember the kitchen if it’s well done,” Centrullo said. Getting started can seem overwhelming. However, if you do some research and

commit to hiring professionals to guide you through the project you’ll have great results. Centrullo said an important consideration is to hire a design-build firm. These types of companies cover the entire remodeling project from concept to completion. Because they work in unison with the design, product selection, and build teams, all the details are handled smoothly. Centrullo said homeowners should first consider how they currently use the kitchen and how they might change in the future. “Do they dine at home a lot? Do all the family members plan to participate in cooking? Do they entertain? The kitchen is the heart of the home and typically is one of the main focal points so it’s important to consider all of its uses,” he advised. He also pointed out that many homeowners tend to get stuck when it comes to seeing what could be. They tend to look at what currently exists instead of what could be, which is the purpose of a remodel. That’s where design consultants like Centrullo can really help. “We tell them let’s just start with a blank canvas and create what you really want and like. This helps them think outside of the box.” — Marrokal Design Center, 9474 Kearny Villa Road, Suite 205, San Diego.

t’s been a busy spring for the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla. Two of the club’s major events — La Jolla Half Marathon and the La Jolla Junior Olympics — took place within a month’s time. We could not have done it without the support of our friends in La Jolla. On April 28, the 32nd Annual La Jolla Half Marathon thundered through the Cove to a successful finish. It is the big fundraising event for the Kiwanis Club. On behalf of the club, I would like to thank the outstanding residents of La Jolla for their help and support this year, in years past, and, hopefully, for many years to come! The overall winners were Kosuke Amano of San Diego in the Men’s Division, and Sierra Walker from Riverside in the Women’s Division. Kathleen Nitschelm, 73, of Carlsbad, finished the race at a very competitive 2 hours and 16 minutes. John Trexel, 80, of San Diego, finished the race at a respectable 3 hours and 3 minutes. Congratulations to all the race participants! In particular, we would like to thank the La Jolla Cove Suites for its support at the finish line. The 22nd Annual La Jolla Junior Olympics was held at Edwards Stadium at La Jolla High School on May 19. More than 800 participants,

guest commentary ages 5-12, competed in five events. Gold, Silver and Bronze medals were given out for each “heat” of each event, and 973 medals were awarded. Children from Bird Rock Elementary, The Evans School, La Jolla Elementary, The Stella Maris Academy, Torrey Pines Elementary, The Children’s School, The Gillispie School, All Hallows Academy, and The San Diego French American School participated. The winner of the Boys Relay Race was Torrey Pines Elementary. The winner of the Girls Relay was The Children’s School. Calvin Hyytinen from Bird Rock Elementary was the fastest boy (400-meter run); Julia Chen from La Jolla Elementary was the fastest girl (400-meter run). It took approximately 100 volunteers to stage this event. The Kiwanis Club thanks our families and friends, the UCSD Circle K Club (our collegiate affiliate), the Key Clubs of La Jolla and University High Schools, the contingent of U.S. Marines from MCAS Miramar, the La Jolla YMCA and the many volunteers from our community. Our cadre of volunteer photographers took and delivered 3,000 photos to the schools for distribution after the event. The Junior Olympics is completely free to the participants. Which bring us to… PANCAKE TIME! The Kiwanis Club of La Jolla is proud to host its 50th Annual Pancake Breakfast, 7:30-11:30 a.m. Saturday, July 27 at La Jolla Recreation

Center. This event was created as a way of giving back to families and businesses for all the support the club has received from the La Jolla community. Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to “Changing the world one child and one community at a time”. Over the years, the event expanded from the San Diego Trust and Savings parking lot on Girard Avenue to its present location at the Rec Center. We have lots of fun activities for the kids — ponyrides, astro-jumps, crafts, face painting — and this year a balloonologist, too! Families will be treated to a great breakfast of all-you-can-eat blueberry, plain and chocolatechip pancakes, sausages, juice and coffee. Parents will enjoy the live band, raffle and auction items donated by merchants from La Jolla and San Diego. There is still time to donate! We would love to have everyone stop by for the special 50th Anniversary Pancake Breakfast, which we are holding in connection with the La Jolla Recreation Center’s “Celebrate the Family Month.” Tickets can be bought the day of the event or prior at C&H Photo, 7442 Girard Ave. Tickets are $10.

U.S. flag theft hurts a local hero Saturday night someone stole our American Flag. They picked the wrong house to steal from. My husband spent six years as a POW during the Vietnam War and we fly that flag 24/7 to show our love and appreciation to this wonderful country that he served so bravely for so long. Shame on whomever stole it that they would take something that means so much from someone who gave so much for our country. Peggy Mullen La Jolla

Seal Cam sees what some would prefer unseen I want to thank the City of San Diego for continuing the use of the Seal Cam at the Children’s Pool. This certainly takes the place of people who were loitering all night at the Children’s Pool claiming they were guarding the seals. A number of times I saw these people at the Children’s Pool illegally consuming alcohol while being at the beach at night. I believe that the City of San Diego finally used available mental health evaluation and treatment resources to assist these people. Keny Trego La Jolla

Let’s out the litterbugs!

I wholeheartedly agree with (letter writers) Marie Newton and Patrick Deighan that something needs to be done now to clean up the litter on La Jolla Parkway and State Route 52 east and to prevent the future besmirching of our roads and sidewalks by nameless litterbugs; however, there is a class of individuals who are not nameless, who should be held responsible for their persistent littering of our streets — specifically, students attending the Kaplan International Center, who routinely toss their smoldering cigarette butts in the bushes or leave them on the sidewalk. Stand at 1111 Torrey Pines Road, the address of Kaplan’s La Jolla campus, any weekday, immediately before or after class or during class breaks; you will see perhaps 20 or more students in loose scrums stretching from main campus to High Street smoking so much that if you didn’t know better, you would think they were stoking a bonfire. Unfortunately, before returning to their classrooms after getting their nicotine fix, most students simply leave their extinguished cigarette butts on the sidewalk or throw live butts into the bushes or the street. Alternatively, walk from 1111 Torrey Pines Road to High Street. Without difficulty you will count more than 100 cigarette butts littering

this small space. As an academic institution and hopefully a good citizen, which unabashedly markets the pristine beauty and local charm of La Jolla on its website, Kaplan should teach its students some much needed civic responsibility, clean up this mess and police this area in the future.

Water department woes I have a leaking water meter in front of my house on La Jolla Shores Drive. Luckily for me, it is on the city side of the meter and so it is their responsibility to fix it. However, it has been running since the end of April. I have contacted the water company five times over this and they keep telling me it is scheduled for repair, but it remains broken. I have lived in many cities and never have I seen a utility company be so irresponsible about something like running water. This is such a waste of a precious resource. Every time I call them I must wait up to 45 minutes to actually speak to a human. What else is there to do? Watching the moss grow on the sidewalk and in the gutter is very disheartening!

LA JOLLA LIGHT - july 11, 2013 - Page A19

OUR READERS WRITE

Save paper. Write less, La Jolla Light The voice of this paper sounds like a bunch of spoiled rotten nincompoops. There is life outside of the post office and seals. With 75 percent of the front pages occupied by one of these stories (or derivations thereof) over the last year, I am bored, disenchanted with the whiny, self-centered writing and opinions. Let me tell you something that you might not want to hear — not every old house should be saved. The story on the ranch home and the palm trees made me laugh out loud (literally, not the way my kids say “LOL”). Yes, the house is old, but ranch houses are intrinsically… ugly and devoid of architectural relevance. They are the hot dog of home building. Frank Lloyd Wright would have driven the frontend loader himself into some of these homes of “historic significance.” If, the criteria to become “historic” is being old, I give up. If the historic readership thinks building a shrine outside of a raised home is appropriate (as they have done in the past) and the best use of its collective resources, I am at a loss (sic). What a waste of the hyper-concentrated knowledge, education and wealth this area boasts. If you think the seals or sea lions are great, then don’t shoot fireworks off on top of them. Why argue about cameras when I’m sure one of these busy-body people who seem to opine about every last thing could most certainly organize a neighborhood patrol to watch the Cove each night, gratis. My English teacher taught me to end on a positive note when writing to editors, so … Great story on the sharks. I appreciate you sneaking in one interesting nugget every once in a while. Pete Nusebaum La Jolla

Why are the arms of pelicans’ flight Vs uneven? Yogi Berra said, “You can observe a lot by watching.” He hoped his ballplayers would learn from watching the play on the field. As I sat at the Children’s Pool reading, I was distracted by a question a friend asked me recently. We had been sitting at the edge of the cliffs enjoying the sunset. He said, “Why do pelicans fly in a ‘V’ with one arm of the ‘V’ usually much longer than the other?” Echoes of Yogi mingled with my friend’s question. So I put my book down and watched. A snowy egret flew by heading from one headland to another where the pickings in the shallows might be better. A pair of western gulls sat quietly on the rock below me. They had constructed a nest, laid eggs and hatched two chicks successfully. Some harbor seals were sunning themselves on the beach, while others were flapping their tails at the water

surface, creating large splashes. Then, a flock of brown pelicans flew by. Sure enough, one arm of the “V” was longer than the other. In the distance, a flock of pelicans was feeding on a school of baitfish. Each bird flew up, gaining height, and then with only the precision that millions of years of practice had genetically bequeathed to the pelican, it turned, pulled its wings inward, and plummeted toward the water. Just before “splash down,” the pelican turned 180 degrees, stretched its neck to its fullest extent, and plunged into the baitfish below. Its turning had placed the pouch in the lower jaw on the opposite side of the fish, catching them as they tried to swim away. While a pelican on land looks clumsy, its acrobatics at catching fish are nothing short of miraculous. After enough fishing, the pelicans needed someplace to digest their catch. Some headed for the cliffs at the Cove where they sat undisturbed and, over time, helped cover the cliffs with white guano. The smell bothered some nostrils, and so guano-eating bacteria were imported to cleanse the cliffs. Another flock of pelicans flew over, and sure enough the arms were uneven. Why would that be? Maybe just watching isn’t enough to decipher a conundrum. In the 1960s, pelicans were having a hard time. Their numbers were down, and the ones nesting on Anacapa Island were either not laying eggs or when they did lay eggs, the eggs were shell-less and covered only with a thin membrane, similar to the one that is so hard to get off some hard-boiled eggs. Banning DDT was the solution. As the DDT levels dropped in the Los Angeles Basin, egg-laying was again possible. Today, we reap the benefits of a rising pelican population. I tried to read again, but Yogi kept after me, annoying me, pestering me, urging me to try to “see” by watching. Another flock of pelicans flew by with the same configuration. Only this time, a “penny dropped.” The long arm was always on the windward side. Could it be that the updraft each pelican gets from the pelican in front is better on the windward arm than on the leeward arm? Three observations, however, do not make a principle. Maybe someone else will take up Yogi’s challenge and help me figure out why the arms of the pelicans’ “Vs” are uneven. Art Cooley La Jolla apcooley1@san.rr.com

In fact, while the United States has many problems (and always has) things are on the upswing.

was to the history of WindanSea. In 1919 Arthur Snell, Chuck’s father, purchased the Strand Hotel, a roadhouse located on Neptune Avenue between Playa del Sur and Playa del Norte. He ran a contest that same year to rename the hotel. The winning name — WindanSea. So the Snell family is responsible for the moniker associated with one of Southern California’s most well-known beaches and surfing communities during the neighborhood’s fastest period of growth (1925-1947). The consultants hired by the current owners concluded in their 2010 report, that the Playa del Sur cottages lacked integrity due to the cobble chimney and wall “possibly” not being original; the siding and roof not being original and the windows not being original thus making the cottages ineligible for Historic Resource designation. Unfortunately the community did not receive a copy of the report until 2012 after the owners had requested a development permit. These same consultants also made the determination of “lack of integrity”

regarding Irving Gill’s 1894 “Windemere” Cottage on Virginia Way, which was demolished in December of 2011 as it was being reviewed by the State Historic Preservation Office. The La Jolla Historical Society was given 10 days from the June 20 continuance to provide the city with new findings related to the Playa del Sur cottages historicity. Volunteers hand-delivered a detailed 23page document, plus addendums, to refute the consultants’ conclusions by filling in information gaps including Chuck Snells’ first-hand testimony and photographic evidence of original condition, which was received on July 2. The Historic Resources staff at the city will now review the new findings and provide a recommendation to the Historic Resources Board (HRB) sometime before July 20. The HRB will then vote on the recommendation during its July 25 meeting at 1 p.m. at City Hall. Preservationists are optimistic that the new findings provided by Mr. Snell, an early resident of La Jolla, will be enough to save the William A. and Ruby Snell Cottages of WindanSea.

and approved and surprisingly, at our first review meeting, the neighbors from a threeunit building four doors east of our project showed up to protest the project solely on their potential loss of private views. Even though the chair admirably explained to them that private views are not protected across neighboring parcels, the neighbors would not give up and were then assisted by actual committee members of the LJCPA! I would have thought that this blatant conflict of interest would be worthy of mention, especially since the offending parties continued to speak and vote on our project, all while they were assisting and educating our neighbor to “morph” their view concerns to a historical preservation effort. We made a choice after three reviews to simply forgo any further review as the LJCPA committee was now acting outside its assigned role as a project review committee and they were spending their time and efforts to overturn an official city clearance that we paid for over two years ago; something clearly NOT within their purview. Our coastal permit was issued by staff at the city as it was completely cleared and they also issued our Environmental Determination, which was published and not appealed by any party. Still, our coastal permit was appealed by three parties and all three appealed the project solely on the historical grounds, even though that item had been asked and answered in writing years before. Further, when we bought this house it was being advertised on the MLS as being able to build a 3,900 square foot duplex as assured by Island Architects. This report also said the existing home was NOT historic. This information was the main reason we felt comfortable purchasing the property. Now, ironically, one of the three appeals delaying

our project was signed by none other than Tony Crisafi, the principal of Island Architects, who also is chair of the La Jolla Community Planning Association. I would have hoped that any article about our project would have pointed out this blatant conflict of interest as well. We patiently waited for our appeal date at the planning commission and were thrilled to read the city staff report issued on June 6, which thoroughly rebuked the appeals and essentially said they had no merit whatsoever. However, that is where this project gets ugly and the day after the staff report was issued, we were informed by city staff that, even though there was NO LEGAL BASIS to do so, the mayor was intervening on this project, presumably to cater to his campaign donors by asking that the project not be heard for a final approval as scheduled, rather, he wanted the project sent to the city’s Historic Resources Board for yet another review to see if the project was historic? In this unprecedented move, the mayor used his bully pulpit to convince the planning commission to act on his behalf without one single shred of legitimacy to do so. Now we must face another two months of delay even though every single time staff has reviewed the facts, they have thoroughly rebuked any notion that our property is historic and we have a written clearance that we paid for in 2010 that was disregarded for purely political reasons! This type of action should have been the main subject of your article and the citizens of San Diego should know that in this current administration, NO rule or regulation is of any value as long as politics are at play. Your readers should know that this time it is us at risk, but tomorrow it could be them facing the loss of their property — even though they, too, played by all the rules and sought all the appropriate assurances!

Survive and Advance

La Jolla Youth Baseball sends eight teams to PONY Tourney By Tom Murphy La Jolla Youth Baseball

La Jolla Youth Baseball sent eight All Star teams to the PONY Section tournament that started on June 22. PONY is an acronym for Protect Our Nations Youth and is a brand of international youth baseball similar to Little League, but more closely follows MLB rules as they relate to pitching, base running and other advanced elements of the game. PONY also plays tournaments into a World Series format, but they play in different cities each year and there is a separate tournament for each age division: Shetland, Pinto-7, Pinto-8, Mustang-9, Mustang-10, Bronco-11, Bronco-12, Pony-13, Pony-14, Colt (15-16) and Palomino (17-18). PONY All Star teams advance from Section to Region, Super Region, Zone and World Series. The top three or four teams in each tournament typically advance to the next level. The “Survive and Advance” mentality is for a team that may lose a game and battle through the losers’ bracket of the doubleelimination format, possibly earning a berth in the semi-finals and advancing to the next tournament. LJYB has had Bronco and Pony teams advance to Zone a few seasons ago, and the

From Baseball, A21 Shetland teams qualified for the World Series tourney the last two years. Success in PONY All Stars makes for a long summer of baseball! La Jollaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pony team was one of the first to survive and advance. After a surprising 3-1 loss to Alpine in the opening round in Ramona, the boys battled through the losers bracket with successive wins against Emerald (4-1), Tecolote (13-5) and Ramona (14-8). They made it to the finals where they faced an undefeated Chula Vista South, and had to beat them twice for the title. Casey Mariucci and Reed Farley pitched great games for La Jolla. They won the first game 5-4 and ran out of gas in the doubleheader, losing the championship game 12-4. Tate Samuelson hit three successive home runs in one game against Chula Vista. Carson Greene and Ben Wintringer combined their clutch hitting to take the team into extra innings and a come-from-behind win. Led by manager Steve Mariucci, LJâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pony team advances to the Regional tourney against Vista on July 11 in Chula Vista. The Bronco Red team also enjoyed some success in the Section tournament in Ramona, where most games were played in 100-degree weather. They opened with a tough 8-0 loss to Chula Vista South, the eventual runner-up. Manager Tim Scott rallied the troops starting with a stunning 10-0 perfect game pitched by Michael Campagna against Tecolote Blue in an elimination game. The PONY officials could not recall another perfect game in recent

SPORTS years. Campagna helped his cause with a home run and received additional offensive support from Marco Molina, Marcus Scott, Calvin Hyytinen, Noah Brown and Trevor Ace. Blaise Gimber sealed the deal with a diving catch in right field to make the last out and preserve the perfect game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an ESPN â&#x20AC;&#x153;web gemâ&#x20AC;? for sure. In the next game, the Bronco boys defeated Emerald 10-7 behind the strong pitching of Austin Schroeder, Blaise Gimber, Alex Monell and Carsten Fehlan to advance to the PONY Regional tourney. Key hits came from Trevor Ace, Cade Kronemeyer, Carsten Fehlan and Alex Monell, who contributed two doubles and four RBIs. La Jolla was knocked out of the tourney by Chula Vista South (again) but Trevor Aceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s towering homer over the right field wall was memorable. LJYB sent three Mustang teams to Ramona for the Sectionals. Billy Egan managed the Red team, Fritz Ortlieb led the Blue team and Dave Klimkiewicz coached the 9-year old players. Blue led off with a 13-8 loss to Chula Vista Blue and Red dropped their opener to Mira Mesa in a close 8-7 game. As luck would have it, the two LJ teams faced each other in the losers bracket and this game went down to the wire. The underdog Blue team got out to an early lead with solid pitching by Devin Longenecker and Willie Barton, supported by strong hitting from Daniel Dessert and Connor Goldman. Clutch hitting and fielding by Will Lavelle made the difference in the sixth inning with Red prevailing over their Blue brethren 8-7. Emerald eliminated them in the next round

www.lajollalight.com

in another 7-6 nail-biter. The Mustang-9 team opened with an exciting 8-7 win over rival Tecolote that went nine innings led Ty Stanleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five innings on the hill. Connor Hobbs scored the winning run on a dropped third strike that failed to convert at first base. Next was a 23-6 blowout against Mira Mesa that was shortened by the mercy rule. They were knocked out of the winners bracket in a tight 8-6 game versus North City featuring tough pitching by Nathan Latimer, Ty Stanley and Tony Ide. They bounced back against Ramona with a resounding 17-7 win that included defensive gems by Spence Carswell and Jake Klimkiewicz. They faced North City again for the championship that went back and forth. Nathan Latimer threw a gutsy complete game that ended in a 5-4 loss with a very close play at the plate in the bottom of the sixth. Coach Klimkiewicz and company advance to Regionals in Carlsbad. La Jollaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pinto division sent Red and Blue teams to the Section tourney in Ramona while the Pinto-7s Regional tournament was played in San Marcos. John Dobak managed the Blue team that opened with an 18-8 loss to Mira Mesa Gold. Manager Mike Solis and his Red team faced the eventual champs in their opening game, losing 15-8 to North City. Big Red got their mojo back against Mira Mesa Blue with a 15-0 win by mercy rule. Pinto Blue beat Paradise Hills 17-7 to face LJ Pinto Red in an elimination game that ended 15-2 in favor of Red. They continued their march through the losers bracket with

wins against Mira Mesa Gold (15-5), Ramona Red (17-11) and Tecolote Red (13-2 by mercy rule). The next day LJ Pinto Red faced the undefeated North City team for the championship and battled back and forth for six innings but came up short 1613. Survive and Advance. Pinto-7s faced the host team San Marcos Rattlers and came away with a 13-3 win by mercy to open their tourney. They lost a tight 15-14 game against Carlsbad to drop into the losers bracket. They beat North City-7s 19-17 before being eliminated by Tecolote-7s 13-8. They survive and advance to the Super Region in San Marcos. Kudos to Manager Sam Stahl for leading this young and talented team. For the third time, La Jolla sent a Shetland team into the Region tournament and for the third time, they advanced to the Super Region tourney in West Covina. LJ Shetland dropped their opening game to Chula Vista South 20-19 in the bottom of the fifth. Down but not out, these tough six-year-old kids won their next three games, beating Mira Mesa (17-7), Fallbrook (15-2), and avenged their loss to Chula Vista in a 15-9 victory. In the semi-final game, LJ Shetland went into extra innings tied at 12 apiece before San Marcos pushed a run across to win the game in dramatic walk-off fashion. La Jollaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense was led by Hank Hansen, Henry Armstrong, Finn Kjos, Will Mullen, Levi Uslander, Cash McKeown, Landon Tu, Dillon Spiro, Christopher Monnell, Logan MacLean, Santino Grasso, Cameron Ouyang, Ryan Popkin and Wyatt Olmert.

What brought you to La Jolla? A divorce from my husband of 13 years. We lived in Cincinnati, but after the divorce, it was time to move on in many ways. My parents had moved to San Diego in 1977, so I followed them here in 1987. If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? It’s a double-edged sword, but easier access to the Village of La Jolla. How about hang-glider stations at several inland locations? It might work for the brave, at least! Who or what inspires you? Dedication to a cause or concept that benefits the community. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite?

Lofty experiment part of 2013 SummerFest lineup By David L. Coddon ell known for bringing musicians and audiences together in interpersonal environments, SummerFest has a special treat in store for classical music lovers during the 2013 season that begins July 31. Two performances will be held on Aug. 9 at The Loft at UCSD, a casual space that seats about 150 on the fourth floor of the university’s Price Center East. SummerFest Music Director Cho-Liang Lin will emcee and also participate in a program of Bartok, Ives, Debussy, Villa-Lobos, Carter and Charles Wuorinen performed by guest artists including flutist Catherine Ransom Karoly, pianist Steven Lin, violinists Michelle Kim and Philippe Quint, and clarinetist Burt Hara. “The fundamental idea is to present a concert that is a closer connection between the audience and the performer,” said Music Director Lin. “SummerFest is in principle already an intimate experience, but this one event that I am trying this summer takes away all the formalities. “The program itself is not a cotton candy kind of program. It’s all 20th Century, but each Last August featured a SummerFest concert by piece is short. It’s like a sampler. the Tokyo Quartet.land d And I want people to be right next to the performers. There’s a period before the concert where the musicians will be there, mingling with the audience.” The inspiration for the “Live @ The Loft” concert was in part the (Le) Poisson Rouge music and multimedia art cabaret in New York City, said Christopher Beach, president and artistic director of La Jolla Music Society, presenters of SummerFest. “They have been programming classical music in a much more intimate, casual setting,” he said. “It’s a great success. I wanted to give our audience a different way to hear classical music. The Loft is a perfect place.” Beach and Lin are equally excited about other SummerFest 2013 performances, the featured composer of which is Bach,

People socialize outside The Promiscuous Fork.

Sharing’s in the spotlight at The Promiscuous Fork By Kelley Carlson hen friends Craig Sewall and Ray Penfield were developing a concept and name for a business, they turned to their wives for inspiration: Both women had a tendency to “sample” from everyone’s plates during meals. With the idea of interacting and sharing in a fun environment in mind, Sewall and Penfield launched The Promiscuous Fork. Initially started as a catering business in 2008, it expanded four years later to include a restaurant in a modest, unpretentious space on La Jolla Boulevard. “This area needed a little neighborhood place,” said Sewall, a La Jolla resident. The eatery was designed to be laid back with that “beach vacation” vibe found in exotic locations like Belize, Mexico and Hawaii. The neutral-toned dining room showcases natural woods and bamboo, and the walls portray rotating galleries of paintings and photos by local artists. The flat-screen TV over the bar alternates its programming between sports and comedies, and film aficionados may appreciate the chalk-written movie quote of the week that’s located to its left. Further entertainment is provided by the lively cooks, who can be observed through a large, glass-covered opening that is bordered by the words “It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere.” Guests who want to join in on the staff’s playful banter can sit on the dog-friendly patio and chitchat with them through the screen window. Overall, it’s a cozy setting, seating only 25 people. “It’s so small, people are forced to

The Promiscuous Fork’s Jalapeño Poppers talk to each other,” Sewall said. But as a result, people strike up friendships and often return to the restaurant for meetups. The Promiscuous Fork can go from zero to full in just minutes; there’s usually a lunch rush and it’s bustling around 6 p.m. for dinner. But if there’s no room to sit, no problem — customers can set up a picnic at nearby Windansea Beach or just take the food home. Almost 40 percent of the orders are to go, Sewall noted. The fare (served in baskets) is more upscale than the standard burgers and fries, and people can’t seem to resist sharing their orders among each other, Sewall said. The signature dish is the aromatic Lamb Lollipops, a favorite among grown-ups and kids. The tender meat — still on the bone — is dusted with Cajun spices, grilled and topped with a balsamic-hoisin reduction. But the bestseller is The Best Fork’n

The Best Fork’n Chicken Sandwich Ever has roasted green chili dressing and habañero pesto, bacon, shredded lettuce and white cheddar cheese. It comes with coconutjalapeño rice. PHOTOS By Kelley Carlson Chicken Sandwich Ever — a chicken breast with a spicy combination of roasted greenchili dressing and habañero pesto, bacon, shredded lettuce and white cheddar cheese, between slices of toasted bread. For burger lovers, the most popular selection is The June Gloom. It’s stacked with jalapeños, cream cheese, smoked bacon, mayonnaise, tomato, onion and lettuce. And a hot special that’s being permanently added to the menu is the Ring of Fire (intense enough to make the cooks’ eyes water), which includes jalapeños, onions and a smoky, spicy cream sauce.

To accompany the sandwiches, there is coconut-jalapeño rice, Sonoran corn salad or macaroni salad. Seasonal salads are also available and the cooks can prepare foods for youngsters such as grilled cheese and quesadillas. Meanwhile, The Promiscuous Fork continues to cater in San Diego and Orange counties and can create platters for pickup. “We have a lot of fun here,” Sewall said. “The regulars love it because of that. And we’re so small, they know us by name. We want people to come in and have a good experience.”

From SummerFest, B1

SummerFest 2013 will kick off with SummerFest Under the Stars 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 31 at Scripps Park in La Jolla Cove. Musical Director Cho-Liang Lin will introduce performances by special guests, including the San Diego Youth Symphony’s International Youth Symphony. Light File

perhaps the greatest figure of the Baroque period. “There are three concerts (during the festival) based on Bach,” said Lin, “but rather than having three concerts of all Bach — or even Bach and son — I decided to use Bach as a departure point and go further into Bach’s future and look at composers influenced by him. Every Bach program will involve some sort of lineage that gets passed down through history. The idea is not only to get an interesting look at this lineage but to enjoy the very beautiful music.” This dynamic can be experienced during the festival’s “Bach & Beyond” concerts Aug. 7, 14 and 21 at the Museum of Contemporary Art’s Sherwood Auditorium in La Jolla, SummerFest’s principal venue. As usual, the SummerFest roster of guest artists is populated with notables. On Aug. 6, pianist Jonathan Biss will perform three pieces by Beethoven, with accompaniment by cellist Fred Sherry and violinist Joseph Swensen. Beach praises Biss for his “deep musicality.” Aug. 20 brings the return of another pianist, 22-year-old Russian Daniil Trifonov. “We have a special relationship with him,” recounted Beach, who discovered Trifonov at St. Petersburg’s Tchaikovsky competition in 2011. “One of his very first concerts in America was in our Discovery series. He’s an old soul with this youthful passion.” At SummerFest, Trifonov will perform works by Schumann, with accompaniment by violinists Stephanie Jeong and David Chan, cellist Gary Hoffman and Richard O’Neill on viola. As for Lin, “The first two concerts (of

SummerFest) are very interesting for me. The opening night (‘Let’s Dance!’) is all about dance music through the ages, so we’re starting with German dances from Schubert through Stravinsky and Ravel. Most festivals tend to open with the tried and true, the war horses. It’s a calculated gamble that I hope people will find interesting and enjoyable.” Then there’s “Salieri’s Vienna” the next evening, Aug. 3. “We don’t hear Salieri’s music very much at all these days,” said Lin. “This program is a microcosm of what Salieri would have heard in his own time in Vienna.” Antonio Salieri is known to many for being in the shadow of Mozart, but, said Lin, “Salieri was a respected musician. He taught both Schubert and Beethoven, and the works in the first half are all dedicated to Salieri.” “Salieri’s Vienna” will feature works by Salieri, Mozart, Schubert and Beethoven. “This program is the very core of chamber music,” said LJMS’s Beach. “There’s something for everyone.” SummerFest 2013 may be some classical music fans’ deepest immersion in baroque music, which Beach said is misunderstood. “A lot of people who don’t like it have the impression that it’s precious or boring,” he said. “They couldn’t be more wrong.” He said the evening of Aug. 13 should be anything but boring, when the Arcadian Academy conducted by Nicholas McGegan will perform works by Vivaldi, Handel, Purcell and others. “It’s our very first concert with baroque music played on period instruments,” said Lin. “It will be a new adventure for both me and for the audience.”

Khaled Hosseini signs copies of his new book, ‘And the Mountains Echoed’ for attendees at Warwick’s sold-out author event at the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla. Photos by Pat Sherman

Martha Barnette, host of public radio’s ‘A Way With Words,’ interviews best-selling author and UCSD graduate Khaled Hosseini at the Museum of Contemporary Art on June 26.

‘Kite Runner’ author, UCSD alumni returns to La Jolla for talk By Pat Sherman Khaled Hosseini, author of the best-selling novel, “The Kite Runner” (basis for the 2007 film of the same name) was in La Jolla June 26 for a discussion and book signing at the Museum of Contemporary Art on Prospect Street. During the sold-out event, hosted by Warwick’s bookstore and moderated by radio host Martha Barnette, the 1993 UC San Diego School of Medicine graduate spoke of returning to his “former stomping grounds.” “It’s great to be back,” Hosseini said. “I really loved my time here at UC San Diego. … I made some amazing friends and had four really unforgettable years here. … I ended up practicing (medicine) for a good eight-and-a-half years.” Asked if he wrote during his time at UCSD, Hosseini chided Barnette, “Your even asking that question shows me that you know very little about medical school. I took a seven-year sabbatical from writing during medical school and my three years of residency training, but I was writing pretty much my whole time in the U.S. outside of those seven years,” he said.

926

Born in Kabul, Afghanistan Hosseini came to California with his family at age 15, as part of an initial wave of immigrants seeking asylum in the wake of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. He spoke almost no English — though curiously, he said, he knew the word “gluttony.” “It’s sort of the very by-the-book immigrant story,” he said. “My family arrived in the U.S. essentially stripped of all belongings and possessions and title. Like any other firstborn son of an immigrant family, I had my choice of three careers and I couldn’t imagine being an engineer or a lawyer.” Before signing copies of his new book, “And the Mountains Echoed,” Hosseini fielded questions from the audience. One woman remarked that she felt more connected to the characters in his new release than his first two novels, which includes his sophomore effort, “A Thousand Splendid Suns.” As a writer, Hosseini said he considers himself more discriminating and tougher on himself these days.

“I’m much more careful about what I put on paper,” he said. “I’m not dissing ‘The Kite Runner.’ I love the book, but I haven’t read it in 10 years. I’d want to take out the editing pen.” Hosseini said the characters and relationships in “And the Mountains Echoed” are more complex, nuanced and morally ambiguous than those in his previous works. “Their failures, their fallibilities, their honorable points — it’s all there and it’s a big mess, and we catch them at moments of decision making … and to me that’s very interesting,” he said. Khaled His new Hosseini book is also filled with nods to his poetic education in Afghanistan, where he said verse is the traditional mode of artistic expression. “It sort of transcends that; it’s really part of the Afghan DNA, part of even common people’s lingo,” he said, noting that even in areas with high rates of illiteracy, people can recite lines of poetry and Rumi’s verse is often found alongside graffiti on abandoned buildings. “You were expected to memorize poetry, you were expected to understand it,” he said. Though the new book pays homage to that poetic upbringing and touches on the wars and controversy in Afghan, Hosseini said it is decidedly less political and forceful than his first two books. “My sense is that ‘Kite Runner’ was quite divisive in my community in that some people felt it brought out problems in Afghan society that might have been best kept in-house — that’s something that I fully understand,” he said, noting the skepticism felt by some Afghans who’ve personally lived through the “debacle of the last 30 years.” “I do expect that as an Afghan living in exile writing about Afghanistan that I will always have my critics,” he said. “That’s just par for the course.”

Jimi Hendrix film to screen at museum’s Shore Thing night By Ashley Mackin For one night only, July 18, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego will screen the rarelyseen 1972 Jimi Hendrix film, “Rainbow Bridge,” as part of its Shore Thing summer program at 700 Prospect St. in La Jolla. Of the film, La Jollan Melinda Merryweather said, “It’s for people who love surfing, people who love Hawaii, people who love the ’60s and people who love Hendrix.” Merryweather was in the film and helped with the art direction. She called the music scenes, “the best Hendrix concert footage ever filmed” and compared the project to reality television in that none of the dialogue was scripted and people are shown talking about the hot topics of the day — psychedelics, vegetarianism, healing and spaceships. As art director, Merryweather said she wanted to make a film combining the New Age discussions she was

She said Hendrix’s manager loved the idea, and that Hendrix wanted to shoot it in Hawaii. “He loved being in Hawaii and playing there,” Merryweather said, noting that the concert footage included a “color-vibratory-sound experiment,” where the notes Hendrix played are represented by different colors. The concert was one of

Hendrix’s last in America, and Merryweather said he knew that would be the case. “He just knew he wasn’t going to be in his body anymore, he knew he was leaving,” she said, citing a scene in the movie where Hendrix says as much. Three months after the Hawaii concert (on Sept. 18, 1970), Hendrix died in London. Those interested can view the film for free during the Shore Thing event, said MCASD Chief Curator Kathryn Kanjo. “‘Rainbow Bridge’ is a film that occupies a cultural history in our minds. Not many people have seen it because it doesn’t screen regularly, so (Shore Thing) provides a unique opportunity to see it,” Kanjo said, adding the film could not be a better fit for the current exhibition at the museum, “Approximately Infinite Universe,” on display through Sept. 1. “Time and space travel is one of the themes of the exhibition,” she said, “so it’s

a nice riff on what we already have happening in the gallery. The artists are using science fiction as a metaphor to imagine other worlds and this Jimi Hendrix film is about enlightenment, transcendence and going to other places … through listening to music or being one with nature.” MCASD’s Shore Thing

events run 5-8 p.m. nearly every Thursday through Aug. 29. Guests may tour the galleries, enjoy cocktails with friends (cash bar), watch the sun set from the terrace, and picnic in the Sculpture Garden. Several food trucks will be parked at the museum, and some evenings will also include tours, music from a band or

a DJ, films, artist talks, and hands-on creative workshops. There is no additional cost for the program outside the $5 and $10 admission rates. The third Thursday evening of every month continues to feature free admission as part of the museum’s ongoing Free Third Thursday Evenings.

Zany situations make for a ‘Perfect Wedding’ at North Coast Rep By Diana Saenger Summer is all about fun, and Matthew Wiener, director of “Perfect Wedding” at the North Coast Repertory Theatre (NCRT), said this comedy is definitely about fun. The audience is in for a night of traditional English bedroom farce with slamming doors, miscommunications, confusing identities, who slept with whom, and who loves whom and who doesn’t love them. “It’s silly fun and then … there’s the chambermaid,” Wiener said. Written by Robin Hawdon, the comedy takes place on what is supposed to be the wedding day for two lovebirds. An inner alarm rings when Bill (Christopher M. Williams) wakes up to find a strange woman next to him in the bed. He panics when he realizes his bride, Rachel (Amanda Schaar), could arrive any moment. Tom (Jason Maddy), the best man, quick on his feet, ushers the unknown girl into the bathroom. Quickly Tom decides to pass her off as his girlfriend. What happens when the real girlfriend shows up is just the beginning of an overflowing barrel of laughs. Wiener is not new to directing locally or to comedies. He directed “Shipwrecked!” and “Lend Me a Tenor,” at NCRT, and more than 30 productions for Actors Theatres. Weiner said he adores farces, but admits they are not easy to pull off. “It’s hard is to create a farce because it’s a different type of comedy than normal comedy,” he said. “Farce has its own set of rules and a certain wackiness to it. Usually, that comes from an outside pressure and is really about timing. In ‘Perfect Wedding,’ it’s a wedding day, so they need to fix things in an instant or there won’t be a wedding.” In addition to timing, Wiener said the plotting of a farce is extra complex, as well. “There are so many pieces that have to

She’s a disruptive force that must be dealt with. “In a farce, a group of unusual people is faced with incredible obstacles that they have to solve in a very short time. How they do that becomes highly entertaining.” The skills for farce require precise talents that Wiener said he was delighted to find in his cast, which includes Brenda Dodge (Judy) and Kerry McCue (Julie). There’s a lot of timing to get right, along with a lot of tight chorography and being able to deliver very quick dialogue.

Bringing home the bacon

t’s Chanel No. 5 to the culinary world, fried bacon perfumes a room like no other food. Traditional and trendy at the same time, bacon continues to pop up in foods you’d never imagine having even a nodding acquaintance with it! Think Ben and Jerry’s Bacon Bacon ice cream, baconnaise and cupcakes. These days, even if you’re vegan, cholesterol-conscious or kosher, you can still enjoy the essence of beloved bacon in the guise of alternatives. Let’s start with the genuine article The ancient Chinese lay a solid claim to the creation of bacon as they started salting pork bellies around 1500 B.C. Today in the United States, 2 billion pounds of bacon are produced yearly, which translates to 43 billion slices, and nearly 18 pounds per person. Yorkshire and Tamworth pigs are specifically bred for making bacon, with different cuts used for preparing assorted styles of bacon. The popular “streaky” American-style bacon comes from the pork belly. The side cut is a meatier, less fat version than the belly cut, while back cuts include the fatback (almost a pure slab of fat), and the lean rib-eye loin, known as Canadian-style or

back bacon that has a ham-like taste and texture. This is frequently coated with fine cornmeal called peameal bacon. Cottage bacon is lean shoulder cut oval slices, while jowl bacon is smoked pork cheeks. The continental pancetta is a pungentflavored Italian version of American “streaky.” Makin’ bacon Bacon is typically cured with brine or a dry packing mixture, giving it a mother lode of sodium, nitrates and nitrites with added flavors of hickory, maple, applewood, honey or mesquite. Baconphiles defend the food on the positive nutritional aspects being a highprotein source rife with stress-busting B Courtesy of vitamins, and Niman Ranch immune-boosting zinc and selenium, as they sweep the high saturated fats, sodium and additives (which also have a reputation for triggering migraines) under the dinner table. Die-hard bacon traditionalists can now enjoy organic, low-sodium uncured varieties, free of hormones, antibiotics, nitrates and nitrates, both American- and Canadian-style. The bacon craze has swelled into a

kitschy cottage industry of products from bacon-infused vodka and bourbon and bacon salt to bacon peanut brittle and smoky bacon chocolate bars. It is a condiment, a side dish, a snack, an accessory, a topping (salads, sandwiches, soups and pizzas), a confection (bacon jelly beans, lollipops, gumballs), and a dessert. Bacon is wrapped around meatloaf, hot dogs, scallops, burgers, hard-boiled eggs, pickles, asparagus and more bacon. It is incorporated into sweet and savory sauces, stews and jams, dipped in chocolate, baked in muffins, cookies, pies and cakes, and used to flavor popcorn, potato chips, roasted nuts and other assorted munchies. If any of these get caught in your teeth, you can always use bacon-scented dental floss or bacon toothpaste to do the trick. Mark your calendar Bacon Day is celebrated the Saturday before Labor Day (Aug. 31 this year), celebrity chef Bobby Flay has endorsed a “Bacon of the Month Club,” while food gurus have dubbed bacon the new “it” dessert ingredient. Now for those imposter bacon foods to satisfy the cravings of those with dietary, health or religious restrictions, there’s lowfat turkey or chicken bacon made from chopped and reformed fowl, with goat, lamb or beef versions along with “macon,” a United Kingdom creation prepared from mutton. Finally, for vegans and vegetarians, there’s bacon bits or strips (aka veggie bacon, “vacon” or “fakon”) made from fermented soy. This protein-packed, highfiber, low-fat and cholesterol-free bacon alternative (with only 38 calories a slice), can be easily prepared at home by marinating and seasoning strips of tempeh and frying to a crunchy crisp. — To chew the fat, e-mail kitchenshrink@ san.rr.com

Veterans at Vi La Jolla Village honored by tribute

ome 30 people attended a special event on July 3 hosted by LightBridge Hospice & Palliative Care and its veteran volunteers (primarily Active Duty and Reserve service members) to honor 20 veterans who reside at Vi at La Jolla Village. The group often conducts moving tributes to thank veterans close to the end of their lives for service to our country. Each presentation is brief. Veteran volunteer Wesley Klimt, an active duty Navy lieutenant in full dress, reads a short speech, gives each veteran a commemorative pin and salutes them. A staff member then presents the veteran with a certificate. Many family members were on hand to celebrate the moment. — Elizabeth Ireland

McAnuff directs UCSD alum’s ‘Sideways’ story for The Playhouse

expert

advice

David Fincher on the screenplay for “Alien 3,” and adapted “Sideways” as a play. “I think these characters have become iconic and the script combines a bunch of areas I’m interest in,” McAnuff said. “It’s a very contemporary story, and the landscape feels very Californian to me.” McAnuff described Miles (Patrick Breen) and Jack (Sean Allan Krill) as archetypal male characters. “You have the intellectual nerd, who is somewhat cerebral but is frozen emotionally. Then you have his friend, who is much more of a jock and impulsive, but with an open heart. In some ways they are polar opposites and opposites attract. You put them on the road in desperate situations where they each have their own demons, and that is the stuff of great comedy. “Miles and Jack, and Maya (Nadia Bowers) and Terra (Zöe Chao) as well, are in crisis we are all likely to face. My mother had a great way of personalizing the (stage) work she sees, including my own, in that the theater prepares us for some of the things we go through in life. I think that’s true.” McAnuff said he sees a connection to classic American literature in “Sideways.”

Director Emeritus Des McAnuff will direct ‘Sideways,’ by Rex Pickett, in the Playhouse’s Sheila and Hughes Potiker Theatre. Courtesy

By Diana Saenger When author Rex Pickett was a student at UC San Diego, he worked with La Jolla Playhouse Director Des McAnuff on several projects, but reportedly only dreamed he would one day return with his own play for the director. Pickett’s popular novel, “Sideways,” was made into a film in 2004, directed by Alexander Payne and starring Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church. Nominated for five Oscars, the film earned more than 350 major awards. In the story, Miles, a frustrated novelist, and Jack, an unknown TV actor/director, go away together through the Santa Ynez Valley wine country. It’s a guys’ getaway before Jack is to be married. What starts out as a fun celebration turns into a midlife crisis, where wine feeds their imagination, freedom and good intentions. As two women enter their journey, good intentions may just fly out the window. McAnuff said he’s excited to direct Pickett’s work at the Playhouse. Pickett graduated Summa Cum Laude from UCSD and began writing scripts and adapting novels. He wrote a live action short that won a 2000 Academy Award, worked with

obama shines light on psychological issues in america, illuminating the importance of professional treatment

www.lajollalight.com “If you had to describe the quintessential American novel it would be a road novel like way back, like with ‘Huckleberry Finn.’ Rex is kind of plugged into that with a mythic quality. I believe these characters belong on stage. “Rex is a great wordsmith and we’ve expanded on words from the film. However, the play goes back to his book and draws on that language, too. This adventure is also a good excuse to get into some good California wine. “We want writers’ notes, in terms of performances, and Rex is very well informed about wine in particularly in the Santa Ynez Valley,” McAnuff continued. “So we’re going to draw on this information. I’m also working with Shirley Fishman, the Dramaturg and my colleague since 2001. We constantly feed ideas and responses back and forth every day because I can do what I want with the production, but if the play isn’t truly powerful, than the quality of the production suffers. So the writer is our greatest concern, and it’s always a truly collaborative effort.” McAnuff’s intuition about perspective projects have resulted in an impressive resume that includes being artistic director of the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, director of Broadway productions like “Big River,” “The Who’s Tommy,” and “Jersey Boys,” and a legendary body of work at the La Jolla Playhouse, most recently “Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.” His decision to direct “Sideways” seems just as promising. “Since we will all face some of things these characters face, ‘Sideways’ is kind of cathartic, but there’s another dimension in that it’s a very funny evening,” McAnuff said. “The behavior of the characters is outrageous, so it’s a comedy that’s a little self-effacing – a way of adding some humor to distance us from our own problems.”

Research Report LynnE Friedmann

Selectively dampening harmful immune responses

misdirected immune response can lead to allergies, autoimmune diseases and rejection of transplant organs and therapeutic drugs. Currently available immune suppressants have major drawbacks, but researchers from The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have demonstrated a new technique to selectively repress unwanted immune reactions without disabling the immune system altogether. The study focused on a problem faced

by some hemophiliacs — rejection of a therapeutic replacement for the blood clotting protein Factor VIII. Without enough Factor VIII, patients risk potentially fatal, uncontrolled bleeding. But 20 to 30 percent of hemophiliacs produce an immune system attack against replacement Factor VIII, rendering it ineffective as a treatment. In developing a new immunesuppression method scientists drew upon their knowledge of apoptosis

(programmed cell death) triggered when certain molecules bind to the surface of B cells (disease fighting leukocytes produced in bone marrow). Mice genetically altered to lack Factor VIII were treated with nanoparticles that included both Factor VIII and a glycan (type of sugar) that binds to a key B-cell receptor. This combination selectively induced apoptosis only in troublesome B-cells, thus preventing Factor VIII rejection without disabling the rest of the immune system. — Findings appear in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.

Previously unknown role in activating T cells Researchers at the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology reveal a surprising finding about the intricate pathway involved in turning on T cells. This involves the role of the septin protein in the calcium response, essential for immune cell activation. The discovery builds on earlier work by the same researchers on the formation of calcium channel pores. Understanding the channel’s entryway is one of the most sought after mysteries in biomedical science because it is the gateway to T cell function in fighting disease. T cells are leukocytes produced in bone marrow that then mature in the thymus (hence their “T” designation). Heretofore, researchers knew that septins existed in the cellular surface membrane — where they build scaffolding to provide structural support during cell division — but it was not known that septins had anything to do with calcium signaling. In the current study, the team discovered the septins formed a ring around the calcium channel and that without the septins’ involvement T cell activation does not occur.

Tiny RNA molecules pack a powerful punch Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have identified a family of tiny RNA molecules that work as powerful immune response regulators. The finding concerns a key interaction between T cells and B cells, the allied lymphocyte armies of the mammalian immune system. Antibody-producing B cells lie in wait for pathogens in special zones called follicles within lymph nodes and the spleen. But to start proliferating and pumping out fight-infection antibodies, B cells need an assist by “follicular helper” T cells (TFH cells) that migrate into the follicles and come into physical contact with the B cells. In an effort to understand the molecular pathways of this process, researchers turned their attention to a family of RNA, known as miR-17~92s, believed to have a role in controlling TFH cell differentiation and migration. Heretofore, researchers believed that suppression of miR-17~92 was required in controlling TFH cell differentiation and migration. To their surprise they found the opposite suggesting that instead of acting as a “brake” on TFH differentiation, miR-17~92s enables the process. This was confirmed in mutant mice in which some or all of the miR-17~92 were knocked out of T cells. These miR-17~92deficient T cells were less able to differentiate into TFH cells. In turn, the follicle-dwelling B cells that depend on TFH assistance also lost much of their ability to respond to an immune challenge. Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.
