By Pat Sherman During the July 9 La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) meeting, trustees voted to explore taking over production of La Jolla’s annual Fourth of July fireworks display from the La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation (LJCFF), the grassroots effort launched in 2009 by businessman Adam Harris and Deborah Marengo, wife of LJVMA board president Claude-Anthony Marengo. Since inheriting the fireworks from restaurateur George Hauer — who produced and funded the event during its first 23 years —Deborah Marengo’s group has been subject to legal challenges from Coast Law Group, which claims debris and noise from San Diego’s fireworks shows have a detrimental effect on the environment that must be carefully mitigated (read more about the lawsuits at lajollalight.com). Deborah Marengo has also had difficulty raising enough money from the community to stage the fireworks, she said, and has for the past three years announced her intent to cancel the show weeks before the event — eventually pulling it together at the 11th-hour.

By Ashley Mackin With the goal of finding a solution amenable to as many people as possible, a group of dog-owning La Jollans is gathering fellow residents’ responses to a proposal to allow off-leash hours for dogs on a La Jolla beach. “We’re hoping to get input from other La Jollans and find a compromise … but the tentative proposal we have now is to let the dogs run free — off leash — in just a portion of the beach and only before 9 a.m.,” said organizer Nancy Linck, adding that a formal proposal or petition has not been drafted. Feedback thus far has only been through

word of mouth and talking with neighbors. A specific off-leash location has not been determined because the group would first like to obtain residents’ input, hence the outreach. However, due to supporters’ proximity to WindanSea and Marine Street beaches — and some of the natural boundaries there, such as rocks — they are hopeful for something in one of those areas. “We bought our home in La Jolla because we like the beach here. We want to let our dogs run around here. In having our dogs

his is the gutter along the north side of Girard Avenue as it goes down to the Cove — just west of the intersection with Coast Boulevard. These sandbags have obviously been there for a long time and grass is growing through them. They’re blocking the drain and causing the runoff water (from the storm drain up the hill that is spewing OUT water) to accumulate and create these pools of stagnate water. Since we haven’t had any rain, this cannot be rainwater and there is no irrigation on the median, so it isn’t runoff from irrigation. I don’t believe storm drains are supposed to have water pouring OUT of them, except maybe in times of large rainfall. As an aside, the construction across the street poured concrete-water onto the median at the fire hydrant upstream of this storm drain and it drained into the street as evidenced by the concrete film on the grass and gutter. u Rita Alanis La Jolla

Jolly Jewel Parade? La Joy-a in La Jolla?
Merchants request neutral name for Christmas Parade La Jolla Village Merchants Association

to discuss the name change further with DIG, the Light or other media outlets). Last fall, San Diego’s Human Relations Commission voted unanimously to support the name change, as did the La Jolla Democratic Club earlier this year. The Bird Rock Community Council opined in 2010 and again last month that it was not within the group’s purview to take up the issue (although after the June meeting about 10 members remained to express their individual support for the name change). Singer said the name should be changed, given the present day religious and ethnic diversity of La Jolla, and the historic sting of its long defunct exclusionary housing policies, which once prohibited selling or renting to Jewish people, blacks and other minorities. “Why can’t this community evolve like everyone else has? … Christmas trees, angels, Santa Claus and nativity scenes could still be a part of group (parade) displays, but the name change would make it clear that those who wish to display other symbols, such as menorahs, are no less welcome than their Christian neighbors,” Singer said, adding
that some alternate names his group is considering include “Jolly Jewel Parade” and “La Joy-a in La Jolla.” “We don’t think La Jolla will ever accept the word ‘holiday,’ ” he said, noting the names of December parades in Chula Vista, Encinitas, Ocean Beach and Pacific Beach have already changed from “Christmas” to “Holiday.” Asked by trustee Trenton Bonner if “La Jolla Christmas and Chanukah Parade” would be an acceptable name, Singer, who disclosed that he is the only Jewish member of DIG, said it would not. “Personally, I don’t want it changed,” Bonner said, adding that he would be happy with whatever the community decides, but doesn’t believe it is appropriate for the LJVMA to take a position. Marengo said the LJVMA explored spending money — or asking Singer’s group to spend money — to poll all its merchant members on the issue. “I still think it’s a good idea,” Marengo said. LJVMA trustee Leon Chow said he approves of what Singer’s group is trying to do, but questioned how useful the board’s vote

By Pat Sherman uring the July 9 meeting of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) — the second largest of San Diego’s 19 business improvement district (BID) groups — trustees voted to request that the name of La Jolla’s annual Christmas Parade be changed to one that does not reference a particular religion. The vote followed a presentation by La Jollan Howard Singer, lightning rod founder of the roughly 18-member San Diego County Diversity and Inclusiveness Group (DIG), whose mission he told trustees is solely to remove “Christmas” from the
name of La Jolla’s December parade. The issue previously came to a head in March 2005 when Singer proposed the name change to the La Jolla Town Council, which at the time produced the event. The council narrowly voted down the name change proposal in an 11-10 vote, via secret ballot. In recent years town council trustee and longtime Christmas Parade Chair Ann Kerr Bache formed a separate, 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation to organize the annual parade, removing it from the town council’s auspices. LJVMA President Claude-Anthony Marengo said he consulted the board’s executive committee — specifically vicepresident and attorney Mark Krasner — before placing the item on this month’s agenda, because he said he “didn’t feel comfortable” weighing in on the issue, and questioned whether taking a position was in conformance with LJVMA bylaws. “It was determined that it was OK for us to do this, to look into it,” Marengo said, noting that the group invited Kerr Bache to join the discussion, although she demurred via e-mail (for nearly a year, she has declined

An opening scene from the 56th annual La Jolla Christmas Parade down Girard Avenue on Dec. 8, 2013. Greg Wiest would be toward DIG’s objective when parade organizers refuse to discuss the issue further, and are not bound by law or the city to do so. “I approve the name, whatever change would be acceptable among the community, but I don’t follow how my vote and our words here are going to help your cause,” Chow said. “I’m not sure as a business owner I want to pressure other people.” Trustee Claudette Berwin countered, “I think (a vote) will be significant and I think it will put pressure on the 501(c)(3) … so I think it is important.” Trustee Krasner, whose law firm contributes financially to the parade (as does trustee Nancy Warwick of Warwick’s
Bookstore), said that despite his annual contribution, he also believes it is “important that the merchants association send a message” to parade organizers “that we do have diversity and inclusiveness” at such public events. “That’s one of the things that makes La Jolla great,” Krasner said, making a motion that the LJVMA request that parade organizers change the name to something “faith-neutral.” Trustee Carol Mills seconded the motion, which passed by a vote of 8-2, with trustees Bonner and Kevin Smith in opposition. “It doesn’t mean we’re forcing anything,” Marengo said. “We’re asking.” u
on the beach in La Jolla, we’ve got to know other dog owners. There is a solid community here,” Linck said. However, the city’s increased enforcement of leash laws — and an increase in ticketing — discourages off-leash dog activity and prompted the group to seek city-approved leash-free hours. A ticket for having a dog off leash can run up to $400. A handful of nearby residents admitted to letting their dogs on the beach off leash in the early morning hours because there is often no one else there and no one would be bothered. Another organizer, Susan Wilson, said, “Based on our experience, there are no tourists or people who frequent that area until about 9 a.m., and compromise is the goal here.” The group said it is not seeking to have the area designated as a full-time dog park or dog beach. Organizers want to determine community concerns, so these concerns may be addressed in any subsequent proposal. To offer feedback on the issue, send an Wilson said concerns, such as e-mail to nancylinck@comcast.net confrontation between a dog and someone unprepared to see a dog off leash on the beach, are “totally logical” and the group is willing to work with these matters and find a solution. “The small group that goes to the beach in the early morning has very good control over their dogs,” Wilson said. “Those who don’t have control of their dogs will run into problems whether they are on the beach, at a park or on the street. The important thing is having your dog under control if you are going to let them off leash.” Fellow supporter Ric Shwisberg addressed concern over “anything the dogs might leave behind.” He said he and other dog owners are “diligently down there cleaning up after our pets, as well as cleaning the trash that other people leave on the beach. We live there, we spend time there, so it’s important for us to keep it clean and keep it nice.” The group encourages other dog owners to do the same. Linck added she and other dog owners have no problem pointing out to other dog owners when their pet defecated on the beach. “But most owners know when their dogs are going to go and keep an eye for it,” she said. Linck said she would like to get the petition circulating as soon as possible, but there is no established deadline for comments. u

Revisions ahead for La Jolla Shores kayak contracts La Jolla
Shores
Association
By Ashley Mackin At the July 9 La Jolla Shores Association meeting, Lifeguard Lt. Rich Stropky said the kayak business contract — Request for Proposal (RFP) — is rewritten every few years to accommodate changing needs of both the community and the kayak operators, and now is the time for public comment on any related issues. The current contract expires this fall. “What we need now is feedback from the community on things they like and don’t like (about current operations),” he said. The comments will be taken into consideration when the new terms of the city contract, which kayak concessionaires must abide by in the Shores, are set, he said. There are five kayak concessionaires in La Jolla Shores that are currently under a RFP agreement and between the five of them, they offer 54 tours per day with 10 boats per tour. Suggestions provided at the meeting for ways to improve current use addressed equipment storage, the height limits of
stacked kayaks on the beach, parking options for concessionaire vehicles (including using the Kellogg Park parking lot during night hours when it is closed to the public), noise abatement, the overflow of people waiting to rent kayaks spilling into the street, and crowd control. Most notably, the question was asked if it could be written into the RFP that some of the fees kayak operators pay — 10 percent of their gross income — could be earmarked for improving the Shores. The operating fees currently go to the City of San Diego General Fund. LJSA Chair Tim Lucas said, “The community is the one feeling the impact of these kayak operations and the city is collecting all the money and not giving it back (to Shores improvements). “The operators I’ve talked with would like a portion of their money to come back here to improve the area and keep things running smoothly.” LJSA treasurer Ray Higgins said it seems their request “is not being heard at City Hall,” so the group asked that it be written into the next RFP. The LJSA will agendize the RFP item again to gather more feedback. To offer input on the issue, send an e-mail to ljsa.org@gmail.com

How a kayak company operates, including equipment staging and storage in La Jolla Shores, is determined by an evolving Request for Proposal. Ashley Mackin announced that DecoBike, a proposed citywide bike-share program, has removed the locations suggested for La Jolla Shores from its map. “They are still moving forward with the Village and Bird Rock stations, but right now La Jolla Shores is not being pursued,” he said. There are eight locations planned for the Village of La Jolla and two for Bird Rock, and a final map of San Diego locations will be posted Aug. 1 at DecoBike.com n Donor bench opportunities: LJSA member Mary Coakley-Munk said there would be nine benches surrounding the North Comfort Station in Kellogg Park, and six of them are available as donor benches. “The city has agreed to let us use bronze plaques on each of the benches so donors at the $10,000 level or above can have a bronze plaque (on the bench),” she said. “It’s a unique opportunity.”
n Map mess: Coakley-Munk also said Friends of La Jolla Shores is continuing its mediation over The Map project — an educational art installation at La Jolla Shores that has crumbled to the point of being a safety hazard — with TB Penick, the company that installed the laminating coating agent lithocrete, which crumbled. A court date has been set for April 2015, but the group should know by the end of summer whether they will need to go to court. If that is the case, they will find a temporary solution to the safety hazard the map presently poses. “We will meet with the Department of Park and Rec and Council District 1 and figure out how we will handle it,” said Coakley-Munk. n Next meeting: LJSA will not meet in August. Next meeting is 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 10 at Scripps Institute of Oceanography, 8840 Biological Grade. LJSA.org u

La Jolla YMCA gets new name after $5 million donation By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla YMCA will get a new look and a new name next year thanks to a $5 million donation from the McKinney family of La Jolla. Y board members and four generations of McKinneys celebrated the donation July 12 at the Y, 8355 Cliffridge Ave., and revealed that the 50-year-old center would be named the Dan McKinney Family YMCA. “We are going to name the facility after him and with continued success in our fundraising — we have about $5 million more to raise — we will be breaking ground early next year,” said Sue Ball, regional vice president for the YMCA of San Diego County. Kevin Mahony, board chair of the La Jolla YMCA, added, “It’s not just about building a building, it’s about the community of people we are going to serve. It’s about children staying healthy in mind, body and spirit.” When the renovations are complete, the center will have two new swimming pools, an expanded gymnastics center, new preschool classrooms in the youth development center, a new wellness center and more. “Something we have never had

contributor to the YMCA organization, including the YMCA’s Camp Surf in Imperial Beach and the San Pedro YMCA, which McKinney attended as a child. “(With this donation) I wanted to thank the YMCA for what they have done for me and also my family. I went through the Y as a small child and my mother sent me to camp at a young age, which helped make my life great,” McKinney said. “So thank you to all those who are involved with the Y.” Executive director of YMCA
camps, Tom Madeyski, said he worked with McKinney to secure the donation. “About six months ago, I meet with him to update him on what we were up to and he said his grandchildren went to the Ecke YMCA and asked how they got the name on the YMCA,” he said. After explaining it followed a large capital contribution, McKinney asked how much he would need to donate to have his name on the La Jolla location. A few weeks later, they met once again and Madeyski
said the amount was $5 million. “Once I told him, Dan paused and said, ‘that’s funny, because before Vi and I came down here, we decided if it was $5 million we would do it. So let’s do it,’ he said. “This gift commitment came between the waiter coming to take our order and the ice tea being served. He had his mind made that he wanted to make a difference.” n For more information about classes and programs at the YMCA, visit lajolla.ymca.org u

Un-bear-ably Fun!
Bishop’s School graduate to produce independent feature film By Ashley Mackin ussell Nickel, a graduate of The Bishop’s School, is in the midst of producing his first independent, feature film — and said he has found fun in every step of the way. It might help that the film, “Bear With Us,” is a farce aimed at being as ridiculous and entertaining as possible. Every step in the filmmaking process has had a touch of silliness, he said, starting with the film’s premise, which is centered on a young man who wants to propose to his girlfriend at a cabin in the woods, but wouldn’t you know it, shenanigans ensue! William Stribling, director and co-writer of the film explained, “We are both silly guys and our imaginations were able to run wild with this. The story snowballs; it starts simple and by the end, all hell has broken loose.” When it came to putting the story together, Nickel and Stribling took a road trip from their college campus of Chapman University in Orange County to San Diego to see “Weird Al” Yankovic in concert. “We spent the whole drive brainstorming,” Nickel said. Stribling added, “It was incredible; we ended up missing our exit because we were talking back and forth. We ended up creating the entire plot of the movie during that trip.” Once the story was solid, the two shared writing duties to get a script together, which was met with positive feedback from actors. When it came to casting, Nickel said he wishes he could have played the part of an indifferent filmmaker, but just couldn’t. “I was gushing to all the actors, and I think they got

The cast includes Christy Romano and Cheyenne Jackson. He added, “These real actors were reading lines that I wrote. It was all coming to life in front of me. I spent months writing the script and honing it and got overwhelmed with excitement.” Of the eight-person cast, some of the bigger names include Christy Romano (“Kim Possible,” “Even Stevens”) and Cheyenne Jackson (“30 Rock,” “Behind the Candelabra,” “United 93”) and crews are scheduled to begin filming August in Pennsylvania. “We wanted to make this film for as little as possible, so we wanted to keep it contained to one location and a small cast,” Stribling said of the $75,000 production. The crew gathered funds from private investors, crowd-funding and a little help from back home. Nickel said, “I was at Bishop’s for six years and felt immersed in La Jolla, so when it came to outreach, I called everyone I could think of and talked to them when I was home. A lot of people donated and invested.” When the film — which Nickel said is similar to “Death at a Funeral” and “Bringing Up Baby” — is finished, the crew will submit it to as many film festivals as they can. Stribling said he hopes to have the film circulating in 2015. u n View the animated trailer (the film is live-action) and more details about the project at BearWithUsFilm.com

During the Mexican period of San Diego’s history, La Jolla was mapped as pueblo land and contained about 60 lots. When California became a state in 1850, the La Jolla area was incorporated as part of the chartered City of San Diego. By the 1880s, the area was surveyed and subdivided by the “Father of La Jolla” Frank Botsford.

Fear surrounds tragedy in ‘The Orphan of Zhao’ at La Jolla Playhouse BD Wong (kneeling) and Nick Gabriel Photos by Kevin Berne
Let’s Review By Diana Saenger he Orphan of Zhao” premiered in 13th century China and has been reworked and adapted many times since. In the La Jolla Playhouse version (a co-production with San Francisco’s American Conservatory Theatre), the epic tragedy set in feudal China explores morality, social hierarchy and self-sacrifice — all of which the audience internalizes, expressing much emotion after seeing the performance. This adaption is from James Fenton, a political and literary journalist who spent many years in Asian countries. Director Carey Perloff, ACT’s artistic director, brilliantly stylizes it. “To be powerful, one must be feared,” a line from “The Orphan of Zhao” reveals, and it’s fear that rules in this brutal tale of woe. The dark, ominous mood hangs over the set by Daniel Ostling, a platform structure of bamboo layers that rise above each other. Country doctor Cheng Ying (BD Wong) is summoned to the palace to help the Princess (Marie-France Arcilla) deliver her first child. He does not know that the Princess’ husband, Zhao Dun (Nick Gabriel), has just killed himself rather than be murdered by the power-crazed emperor’s evil advisor Tu’an Gu (Stan Egi). Zhao Dun’s would-be assassin also takes his own life, setting in motion the subsequent killing of the 300-member Zhao clan. The doctor discovers the Princess’ baby is the last trace of the Zhao bloodline and perhaps the future of a kinder, gentler China itself. When the Emperor (Paolo Montalban) discovers the baby lives, jealousy and insecurity cause him to order his followers to find the doctor and kill the baby — and to play it further safe — all the newborn males in the kingdom. Cheng Ying and his wife (Julyana Soelistyo) have just had

a baby son of their own. Cheng Ying is caught up in the desperate situation that ultimately mandates that to save the orphan Zhao, he must substitute his own son for sacrifice as the orphan, and pass the orphan Zhao off as his own. The 12-member cast portrays the characters with passion and zeal. BD Wong is so engaging as Cheng Ying, it’s hard to take your eyes off of him. The performances, music (a mix of strings, gongs and percussion by Bryon Au Yong), costumes, sound and set design, choreography and fight scenes all come together in a crescendo of astonishing entertainment. u n IF YOU GO: “The Orphan of Zhao” is onstage Wednesday-Sunday through Aug. 3 at Mandell Weiss Theatre, La Jolla Playhouse, 2910 La Jolla Village Drive, UC San Diego campus.

La Jolla Village Merchants Association From Fireworks, A1 Board president Claude-Anthony Marengo said he asked his wife if she would be “willing to let our organization take the lead (on the fireworks) and put her as a chair of some sort. “We would have to (create) a separate foundation so that we wouldn’t be mixing funds (with the LJVMA),” Claude-Anthony said, touting the opportunity for the merchants to grow the event and include such things as a grilling competition in Ellen Browning Scripps Park, where each year people arrive early the morning of July 4 to claim prime viewing spots. He said vendors sell light sticks and other merchandise in Scripps Park, which are sales and promotional opportunities that the LJVMA should be capitalizing on. “I call them poachers,” Claude-Anthony added of what he said are likely nonlicensed vendors. “Those things should be coming from us, they should be controlled by us.” Addressing trustees July 9 Deborah Marengo said the LJVMA could apply for
grant money from the San Diego Tourism Authority to help fund the event. “The Fourth of July weekend is only a success because of the fireworks, and it benefits your merchants,” she said. “If you’d like to consider taking it over I will work with you.” LJVMA board secretary Krista Baroudi (of La Jolla Cove Suites) said her hotel occupancy was “way down” due to this year’s cancellation scare and would have been “seriously impacted” had the show not occurred. “The entire Village would have been impacted without this show,” Baroudi said. “If you take that show out of La Jolla, the Village has nothing to offer on the Fourth of July weekend. The hotels run three-day minimums, which are basically bringing the tourists in for a block of time to enjoy the Village.” Although several hotels contribute to the fireworks, Claude-Anthony said he feels Village business owners should take a greater stake in the event. To date, the majority of sponsorship for the typically $30,000-plus show has been from residents, he said. “We can make it something that’s inclusive of the businesses and make it a full-day event … a bigger weekend extravaganza,” he said, noting that businesses who donate could be given a sign to place in their windows labeling them as a “proud sponsor.” “It becomes frustrating to hear that merchants are not attaching themselves to this fireworks show. They’re just going, ‘Oh, it’s going to happen,’ ” Claude-Anthony said. Board vice-president and attorney Mark Krasner said he thinks the fireworks are

“integral” to the community, but has concerns about the recurring legal challenges, which, despite a $250,000 settlement the city paid Coast Law Group this year, could be ongoing, Deborah Marengo said. “There is always that threat,” she added. Krasner said if the LJVMA takes on the fireworks “the board needs to understand that that exposure can then be directed at us — unless there’s a lawyer or law firm that wants to defend the La Jolla Village Merchants Association pro bono,” he said. “We have to realize the cost of that (litigation) is not in our budget.” Deborah Marengo noted that the law firm Latham & Watkins has, for the past several years, represented LJCFF against the legal challenges at no cost, although it is unclear whether it would continue to do so under the LJVMA’s auspices. Trustee Trenton Bonner said that because board members have jobs and other responsibilities, organization of the fireworks should “almost be a hired position.” Trustee Nancy Warwick expressed concern that a lack of donations to produce the event could leave the LJVMA footing the bill for the difference. Baroudi suggested the LJVMA start soliciting funds now for next year’s event. “We should have contracts by the end of the year, guaranteeing us our underwriting dollars. We should not be collecting money two or three weeks before the display,” she said. Claude-Anthony agreed there should be a cutoff of January established to raise funds for the following year’s show, with communication to the community that it must have the money by then, or cancel the show. “We don’t have liability in terms of finances,” he said. “It either raises capital or it doesn’t.” Krasner said he fears the LJVMA also assumes a public relations risk if it cannot raise funds for the show. “If the merchants do not commit to whatever extent they can to provide funding … or solicit sufficient funding far enough in advance, then the lack of fireworks will fall on the merchants,” he said. “We will receive the blame and our businesses will suffer.” Krasner nevertheless followed his caveat with a motion that the LJVMA “investigate taking over the annual Fourth of July Fireworks display,” which was seconded by trustee Kevin Smith and passed unanimously (with Claude-Anthony abstaining from the vote). The LJCFF’s status as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) Corporation, filed by Adam Harris in 2009, was suspended in August 2012 for the organization’s failure to file tax returns, according to the California Secretary of State and IRS. Harris is no longer associated with LJCFF. The fireworks foundation has periodically used the nonprofit status of the La Jolla Town Foundation (under the auspices of the La Jolla Community Center) to pay fireworks vendors minor amounts, for those who wanted a tax write-off for their donations.
In other LJVMA news n Collecting merchant dues: The LJVMA is moving forward with its effort to inform the city of business owners that have not filed for a business tax certificate (business license), through which a fee is
assessed that funds the LJVMA — the business improvement district group contracted by the city to undertake efforts that promote business in the Village. The group considers that lost revenue crucial to its efforts to boost business for its merchants. The group has thus far sent the city a list of roughly 600 businesses operating in the Village of La Jolla that have not obtained a business tax certificate. LJVMA continues to collect the information, although its executive director, Sheila Forutne, noted that some businesses may have filed for a license under a different name, adding a wrinkle in their efforts to assess who is compliant. Claude-Antony said the City Treasurer’s department is already moving forward with information it has received from the LJVMA. “The city’s doing their share, which we’re very happy about,” he said, adding that most of the non-compliant businesses they’ve been in contact with said they didn’t understand that they had to file or were misinformed of their obligation by city staff. “We don’t want to make a ‘bad guy list,’ because I don’t think they’re bad guys,” Claude-Anthony said. “We want to make sure this is positive reinforcement. Otherwise, we just look like we’re here with a hammer, and we’re really here to represent.” Fortune urged trustees and those in attendance to let their associates know they are required to have a business tax certificate posted at their place of business, noting that one business was just assessed with fines for not filing in previous years. Although the amount “wasn’t outrageous,” Fortune said “it could be outrageous for some small businesses … so make sure that you spread the word and help us help them.” n Board candidates sought: Fortune said she is in the process of sending selfnomination forms for as many as 10 trustee spots that will be up for grabs at the LJVMA’s annual election, held in-person during the group’s October meeting. The two-year positions are open to all of the LJVMA’s merchant members — or those who have a current business tax certificate (business license) on file with the city. Current trustees will also help solicit candidates. Claude-Anthony said he already had a list of about 40 potential candidates he would be speaking with. “It doesn’t mean they’re going to accept,” he said, noting the challenge of recruiting board members in the past. n La Jolla-opoly on hold: Due to a lack of initial funding and merchant interest, the LJVMA’s La Jolla-based board game fundraising project was put on hold. Fortune said she would continue efforts to bring the game to fruition this week. Any La Jolla merchant wishing to have their business listed on the board game should contact her at sfortune@lajollabythesea.com or (858) 454-5718. n New employee: Heather Vrana, a former fire department volunteer from Ellicott City, Maryland, has been hired to replace Kaylie Boden as a full-time LJVMA staff member. Vrana will also manage parttime employees and volunteers at the LJVMA’s Information Center on Prospect Street. u

Who you gonna call? Call Sherri!
Speaking at Community Center, councilmember invites calls to her office By Ashley Mackin hen asked what she sees as her legacy when her term is up in 2016, District 1 San Diego City Councilmember Sherri Lightner told a recent gathering at the La Jolla Community Center, “I want people to say ‘You know, when Sherri was in office, we could call her office and get something fixed.’ There are other things I want to get done as well, but I want to be remembered for the community service aspect of my office.” Center member Don Hodges noted that through a grant from Lightner’s office, they were able to construct the ADAaccessible ramp four years ago. “That project acted as a huge catalyst for us … it was the trigger that allowed us to apply for other grants (to cover other improvements and renovations) to this building,” he said. Lightner was a guest of the Community Center’s Distinguish Speaker series July 10, where she took questions ending most answers with, “If you call my office, we’ll look into the matter and get back to you.” Her office can be reached at (619) 236-6611, visit sandiego.gov/citycouncil/cd1 or e-mail sherrilightner@sandiego.gov Regarding pothole areas (and areas with patches as a temporary fix), she explained to the 30-plus people in the audience that the city is working under a new plan that postpones street repaving if there are other utility plans for that street. “The previous plan was they would dig up the street, put in a sewer and repave the street. Then they would dig up the street, put in a water line and repave the street. Then they’d come back and do undergrounding and repave the street,” she said. “Now, sewer, water or undergrounding is being coordinated before the complete resurfacing of a street, so crews will try to make the patches work. The idea is once

they are completely done with what they are doing, then they will resurface the street.” Still, Lightner requested the locations of particularly bad areas so her office could look into them, along with any issues of speeding cars and neighborhood noise. Lightner reported a solid working relationship with the police department’s Quality of Life Team, which assists with homeless issues and panhandling in the community. She said if someone sees panhandling, to contact her office for investigation by the Team. La Jolla resident Art Brandt thanked Lightner stating he had first-hand experience with calling her office and seeing an issue resolved. “Her office helped us get rid of ice cream trucks in our area, which has really helped make our neighborhood quieter. We appreciated that,” he said. “She is responsive and a wise person who uses a lot of logic.” As for the “other things” she would like to get done, Lightner said her priority would be a better water plan as Californians deal with drought conditions. “I think there was a missed opportunity here,” she said, adding she is working with water treatment facilities to have better options for the future. Pleased with the turnout and the dialogue that ensued, Community Center Executive Director Nancy Walters said, “Sherri has been a huge supporter for as long as I can remember and has been instrumental to the growth of this center, so it was great to have her here.” u n The next guest in the Distinguished Speakers Series will be Congressmember Scott Peters (D-52nd), 6 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 26 at La Jolla Community Center, 6811 La Jolla Blvd. (858) 459-0831. ljcommunitycenter.org

Planners grapple with board election challenge n Also appeal revised Whale Watch Way project and more
Bill Fulton, the city’s Director of Planning, Neighborhoods and Economic Development, includes a recommendation from city staff that Morton be seated as a trustee. If Morton were seated, he would occupy the seat the LJCPA would otherwise confer to Costello next month. The crux of the challenge: current LJVMA board president Joe LaCava was re-elected in March, receiving the most votes of any candidate (68), although he now exceeds the LJCPA term limit of six years (or two consecutive three-year terms). Per the LJCPA’s bylaws, a candidate may exceed term limits by two years if there are not enough viable candidates running for available seats, and they receive two-thirds majority of the vote, which LaCava did in March. He ran again at the urging of fellow trustees who say they respect his commitment to LJCPA and capacity to head the group as board president. However, Fulton’s letter said the LJCPA should have stated on its election ballot that “new candidates (Morton) have priority over
Despite the addition of a ‘basement’ to reduce its perceived gross floor area, LJCPA trustees say the redesign of this proposed futuristic home (pictured is an artists’ rendering) on Whale Watch Way does not change the look of its exterior nor its pending impact on the neighborhood. The LJCPA is appealing a city hearing officer’s approval of the plans. Courtesy candidates exceeding term limits.” In April, LJCPA trustees disagreed with that assessment, opining that as long as a candidate is exceeding term limits with two-thirds of the vote, no candidate should receive priority. According to LaCava, the city’s response to the election challenge is merely advisory, as outlined in City Council Policy 600-24: “The city does not direct or recommend the election of specified individual members, nor does the city appoint members to planning groups, or recommend removal of
individual members of a planning group.” However, LaCava noted, there are ramifications in that policy for not following the city’s advice: “Where a planning group does not cure a violation by itself, it may forfeit its status as a recognized advisory body.” (The LJCPA makes recommendations to the city in regard to land use, planning and infrastructure projects in La Jolla). Responding to other issues raised in the election challenge, Fulton noted that the

By Pat Sherman During a July 9 special meeting of the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA), the group announced the results of its July 3 special election, in which standing members voted to fill two open seats on the group’s 18-person board of directors. Cindy Greatrex, the La Jolla Town Council’s immediate past president, received 52 votes, while former LJCPA trustee Mike Costello, who presently serves on the LJCPA’s Development Permit Review committee, received 43 votes. Architect Michael Morton received 15 votes. Greatrex and Costello are to be seated at the beginning of the group’s August meeting. However, whether Costello retains his seat is pending the results of a challenge to the LJCPA’s March trustee election, which was filed with the mayor’s office by Bob Whitney of the La Jolla Association. During its August meeting, LJCPA trustees will discuss the city’s response to the challenge, and the city’s recommendations for corrective action — chief among them, that Morton be seated as LJCPA trustee. Although Morton ran for a trustee seat in March, also receiving the fewest votes (14), a June 26 response letter to the LJCPA from

Is San diego Summer driving dangerous?
Uptick in vacationers. San Diego is known as a summer holiday destination. An increase in vacationers means an increase in potential accidents on the road. Vacationers have little working knowledge of the San Diego area. Driving is often slower and evasive turns and lane changes can also occur due to the unfamiliarity of city driving. Locals are urged to be cautious when traveling, especially when navigating city streets. Effects of sun on rubber surfaces. The sweltering sun is no match against rubber materials that can easily deteriorate and crumble in the hot summer air. Tires, windshield wipers, some bumpers and interior engine parts and belts can corrode in the summer. Be careful; always keep your vehicle updated when it comes to maintenance. It may also be a good idea to check your vehicle at the beginning of each
season (that means now!) Increased shoulder use. It’s no secret that summer months bring warm weather. But even a few degrees more can spell disaster for vehicle coolants, radiators and oil. When cars overheat, drivers must pull over for help. Shoulders and merging lanes can often become congested as a result. Avoid a rear-end car accident and be cautious of increased shoulder use this summer. As we officially usher in the summer season this month, let’s welcome the season safely. Here’s to a happy and injury-free summer season. Michael Pines is the founder of the Law Offices of Michael Pines, APC. The attorneys specialize in car accident injury in San Diego.

Architects Francisco Mendiola and Jess Gonzales of Concepto Design Group International discuss their project at 7615 Hillside Drive on Mt. Soledad, which the LJCPA approved after considering its merits July 9. Pat Sherman LJCPA’s failure to publicly appoint and have trustees ratify its election subcommittee in advance was satisfactorily remedied by ratifying the election committee during the group’s April meeting. A question in regard to whether trustee Rob Whittemore (a March write-in candidate elected with 58 votes) had attended the required three LJCPA meetings within the previous year was resolved to the satisfaction of city staff. LJCPA secretary Helen Boyden noted that
several people who showed up at La Jolla Rec Center to vote on July 3 were not registered LJCPA members. “That has happened before. You’re entitled to attend meetings without signing in, but only by providing proof of attendance can you maintain membership or become eligible for election as a trustee” and be granted voting privileges, she noted. La Jolla Light will report further on the election challenge following the LJCPA’s August meeting.

In other LJCPA news n Whale Watch redux A futuristic home proposed for 8490 Whale Watch Way — which the property owner ostensibly abandoned two years ago following a legal challenge — has reemerged with a modified design that LJCPA trustees say does not change its boxy appearance or its negative impact on the neighborhood. The applicant is seeking coastal development and site development permits to demolish
an existing single-family residence and construct a 7,001-square-foot, two-story home with basement on a 20,093-square foot lot. In 2012, a group of residents organized as La Jolla Shores Tomorrow filed a lawsuit in San Diego Superior Court seeking to block the project, challenging its compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act, San Diego Municipal Code, the La Jolla Community Plan and the La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance. Shortly after, the property owner submitted a letter to the city terminating the project application, although the plans, designed by famed Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid (first female recipient of the Pritzker Architecture Prize), were later resubmitted, with the addition of a basement, which moved some of the 12,700-square-foot project’s elements below ground, giving it a new gross floor area ratio of 7,001 square feet. “They reached inside the box and took half of the stuff out and pushed it down into the basement,” trustee Phil Merten said, adding that the building far exceeds the floor area allowed for its lot size. Merten said the redesign did nothing to reduce the project’s exterior bulk and scale, adding that it still “disrupts the architectural unity of the neighborhood,” which he said is typically comprised of one-story, ranchstyle homes. In the end, LJCPA trustees voted 14-0-1 to file an appeal of a city hearing officer’s June 25 decision to approve the project.

Authentic Mexico fare on Pearl: The Taco Stand By Marti Gacioch Freshly made corn tortillas on demand, hand-ground guacamole, freshly made salsas and high-quality produce are just a few of the ingredients adding authenticity to The Taco Stand. Owner Aram Baloyan and his director of operations Martin Seglin opened the Pearl Street eatery last November. “We wanted to create an authentic, taco-stand feel for our customers — just like when you visit Mexico,” Seglin said. “We created the menu and got things just the way we want them.” Authenticity remains their top priority, and their crew of 13 employees works hard to deliver it daily. “Customers can watch our tortilla-makers in action while they wait for their order,” Seglin said. “We also make our own tortilla chips and sell them by the onepound bag.” The crew also makes fresh salsas, including habanero, green mild, chili verde, chipotle and pico de gallo, which will be available by the pint soon. Tacos are the name of the game here and The Taco Stand uses top-quality ingredients to make them. Their best seller is the 100-percent Angus Beef Carne Asada Taco — soft, juicy beef marinated in its own special

Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage acquires Middleton & Associates By Pat Sherman n what could best be described as a marriage made in real estate heaven — Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage has acquired relatively new, yet highly successful and profitable Middleton & Associates Real Estate, boosting both offices’ capacity to offer clients the ultimate service in the luxury real estate market. The deal was sealed June 30, feted with a party at La Valencia Hotel, at which Middleton’s 30 independent agents enthusiastically signed on. The agents will remain at their respective offices at 848 Prospect St. (formerly Middleton & Associates) and at 930 Prospect St. (Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage’s existing location). Broker-owner Pete Middleton grew up in a real estate family in Brockton, Massachusetts. A former agent with REMAX Associates in San Diego, his background includes playing professional soccer in Australia. Middleton opened the boutique Middleton & Associates office five years ago, becoming the only other residential real estate office in La Jolla (alongside Coldwell Banker Residential) to show positive growth consistently during the past five years. Middleton, who as an agent has produced upwards of $100 million in sales per year, said he was proud of his business, but felt burdened by the overhead and time constraints associated with running his own office and longed to get back to his true passion — sales. The acquisition took nearly a year, during which Middleton said he entertained a few other offers, although in the end he felt Coldwell Banker had the most solid

reputation and offered superior online tools to give his team a competitive advantage that will help them perform at an even higher level. With the addition of Middleton’s sales force, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage now boasts 120 agents. Branch Manager Jeffrey Nunn said the decision to acquire Middleton & Associates made good business sense. “They had one of the most productive groups of sales associates on a per-person basis, very similar to our office in La Jolla,” said Nunn, who has been with the Coldwell

Banker on Prospect since 2007. In Dec. 2011, Nunn’s office represented the buyer in the sale of architect Wallace E. Cunningham’s contemporary opus, “The Razor,” in La Jolla Farms. “A client from Florida saw that home on the Internet and contacted us,” Nunn recalled. “It took a while, but that just shows the power of the Internet.” Middleton said he was duly impressed with the Coldwell Banker Previews Luxury Home Marketing Program — a congregation of luxury real estate websites throughout the world promoting its listings, and providing unrivaled international reach. “Nobody knows our sellers’ property better than our listing agents,” Nunn said. “We guarantee our sellers that our agents who list their home will be the point of contact on the Internet site where their home is exposed. … Other companies allow the space next to their sellers’ listings to be purchased by outside brokers to handle the calls on the listings, and those outside brokers are just basically paying a fee to have their name next to listings that aren’t theirs to take those calls.” Last year the two offices combined realized sales of about $550 million, Nunn said. “Our agents here at Coldwell Banker La Jolla sell more real estate per agent top to bottom, on average, than any other company (in La Jolla),” Nunn said, adding, “We expect that to go to about $700 million within the next 12 to 18 months … based on leveraging of Coldwell Banker Previews Marketing and the additional tools and resources that are available to their sales associates to help them get listings.” u
Terrific family home in one of La Jolla’s best family areas. Great access to shopping, theatre, freeways and schools. 5 bedrooms, and large bonus room for games or large screen TV. The delightful garden room overlooks the pool and lovely garden. Entertaining is fun when preparing in the gourmet kitchen, and dining can be inside or out. The entertaining flow in this home is ideal.

Three cheers for seagulls! They are a godsend to man Surely you knew that the “seagull chick” article on your front page last week would elicit a strong response from the small handful of La Jollans who think the Earth was created solely for them. However, I am proud that our city did the right thing in taking a stand for this helpless little chick (and halting lifeguard tower construction until it was able to fly away.) In so doing, the city not only helped the baby seagull, it also helped us. Most grade-school children can tell you about the role seagulls played in the pioneer history of our country. In 1848, the people of Utah were saved by seagulls. A great plague of Rocky Mountain crickets was destroying their crops and nothing they did could stop them. This firsthand account by Orson Whitney describes the devastation of the crickets: “When it seemed that nothing could stay the crop destruction, great flocks of gulls appeared. Filling the air with their white wings and plaintive cries, they swooped down upon the half-ruined fields. All day long they gorged themselves, and when full, disgorged and gorged themselves again. The white gulls upon
Vons must rethink its parking policies As a La Jolla resident of more than 30 years, and someone who likes to support our local businesses, I have never experienced what happened to me while I was shopping at Vons last weekend. Having done my shopping at Vons — with the grocery bags visible in my car — I proceeded to the adjacent UPS store and to pick up a sandwich from Subway. I had plenty of time left within the two-hour posted parking limit. Upon approaching the upper part of the parking lot, I, and an older lady, were accosted by a large man who spread his arms and feet to stop us from going any further and asked where we were going? I told him politely, and then he got belligerent and told me to return to my car immediately as Vons has the policy that its parking lot be used for those shopping at Vons only and no where else. He said the company was STRONGLY ENFORCING the policy. He told me to read the sign, where upon I noticed that someone had freshly taped on a line, saying that one could only use the parking lot for shopping at Vons. These warnings were new to me, and were added to every two-hour sign. If Vons wants to start threatening its loyal patrons I will shop at Ralphs in UTC, which will take me out of La Jolla where I can shop in many stores and support them instead. I do not know what is happening to La Jolla. Burns Drugs and Jonathon’s have departed leaving a big hole in my heart. I strongly believe in supporting one’s own community with everyone being courteous to one another. Vons is now off my list. I do not need them. Sandra Edgington La Jolla

the black crickets, looked like hosts of heaven and hell contending, until the pests were vanquished and the people were saved.” More than 100 years later, in 1955, the gull was selected as the state bird of Utah. In Salt Lake City an impressive bronze and gold leaf monument depicting the “Miracle of the Gulls” was erected in the center of Temple Square. We are fortunate to have California gulls as permanent residents along our coastline. Their presence certainly guarantees that we won’t be plagued by crickets. And not only can we enjoy watching their effortless, graceful flight, we can also be amused by their aerobatic gymnastics. Normally they are quiet, gentle birds, though
we are all familiar with their high-pitched cries when food is around. I’m sure most of you, like me, don’t appreciate those big, white, paint-like blobs left by seagulls on you cars or other places. But this truly is a small price to pay for the good they do. Perhaps we need to remember that not only are they helpers in cleaning our beaches and shorelines of the litter left by humans, they are also beneficial to agriculturalists. Gulls do more good than harm in this world, and after all isn’t that what we try to do too? Florence L. Lambert Retired nurse, conservationist, native San Diegan, 43-year resident of La Jolla

Ban leaf blowers and hire neighborhood kids I feel so blessed to live in such an environmentally conscious city, however, I feel as if leaf blowers have slipped through the cracks of that awareness realm. I’d love to see the city set up ordinances on their usage. There have been times I am literally lightheaded from their exhaust fumes coming from a block away as I work in my open-windowed office. The noise, while a nuisance, I can block out, but it’s a shame to be in a heat wave and have to close up corridors because of heavy fumes. I’m an adult, but I think of how the fumes affect the little bodies playing on the playground and in their own yards. The level of productivity leaf blowers offer is well-below par compared to the problems they present. The average California yard is small enough to rake — in some cases I truly believe I could hand-pickup the leaves faster — not to mention we hardly live in a deciduous forest here in our palm-tree paradise. I look around my neighborhood and see a plethora of young, energetic kids. Instead using a leaf blower or asking your landscaper to add that to their list (they will most likely use one as well), employ one of these youngsters instead. It serves so many wonderful purposes: The environment will thank you (as well as your neighbors), the noise factor is nonexistent, and you’ll help Little Johnny or Little Suzy learn all about earning money, and that will lead to more of their own ingenuity and discipline. Just a thought La Jolla. Kat Cowley La Jolla

Science at La Jolla High is set for a big boost Kudos to all the members of our community who support our efforts at La Jolla High School! Some years ago the Nierenberg family made a generous donation that allowed our school to renovate some of our most ancient science and technology classrooms. We are now at the cusp of upgrading the remaining “old” science classrooms with the infrastructure necessary to allow us teachers to deliver lessons that will capitalize on the same 21st century science and technology that is driving our burgeoning BioTech industry — a world leader in the field! Thanks to Linden Blue, the La Jolla Community Foundation and all the members of the La Jolla High Foundation for supporting our school and our community with the financial commitment that will be needed to take our school to the next level.

www.lajollalight.com From Planning Association, A17 The La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee voted in January that findings could not be made to approve permits for the project. n Wu Residence Trustees also considered a home rebuild at 7615 Hillside Drive on Mt. Soledad, which was pulled from the LJCPA’s June consent agenda for further discussion by Myrna Naegle, who felt the project was “totally out of character” with surrounding homes. In May, the La Jolla Shores PRC approved the plans, with Naegle in opposition and Janie Emerson abstaining because she felt the project’s “basement” actually constituted a third story. Trustee Merten, who voted in favor of the project on the PRC, noted that, when viewed from the street, the home is smaller than one of the homes adjacent to it. Project architect Francisco Mendiola of Concepto Design Group International, showed trustees a rendering of a three-story home directly across the street from the project. The new home, which would dip below the street to 36 feet, is only 21-feet tall when measured from the street, Mendiola said. Merten said he didn’t understand why some trustees were overly concerned with the lower level space, because it would be there anyway, whether the owner used it as a crawl space, basement or for pillars to prop up the home (as the existing home is designed). Mendiola said the owners will use the lower level as three bedrooms for visits by their adult children. “It’s a steep lot. They’re choosing to use it,” Merten said, making a motion that the findings could be made for the project, which was seconded by LJCPA vice-president Bob Steck. The motion passed 12-2-1 with trustees Emerson and Bob Collins in opposition. n Items held over Trustees pulled two subcommittee-approved projects from the LJCPA’s July consent agenda for discussion at a future meeting: a proposed home remodel at 8151 Calle Del Cielo, including the addition of a 2,856-squarefoot second floor, basement and three-car garage (Laska residence); and a home remodel with a 2,085-square-foot, second-story addition at 6101 Camino De La Costa that some neighbors oppose (Hart residence). n La Jolla Boulevard condo conversion Trustees briefly considered a proposal to convert four units under construction at 6633 La Jolla Blvd. into condominiums, which was approved last month by the Development Permit Review subcommittee, following some back-and-forth discussion about the bedroom count and parking spaces. Claude-Anthony Marengo of Marengo Morton Architects requested that the item be placed on the agenda, although he decided not to offer a presentation because a neighbor with concerns about the project did not attend the meeting, and may no longer have concerns, he said. A motion to approve the project by trustee Collins (seconded by Patrick Ahern) passed with trustee Whittemore abstaining.

n Cove odor management Garver said another round of bird excrement-eating microbial foam was applied to the bluffs at La Jolla Cove this month to help manage the odor issue there, which he said “hasn’t really been an issue” as of late. “We haven’t been receiving many complaints, so hopefully these consistent treatments are working well,” he said.
n View corridor inventory President LaCava confirmed a database would be compiled of all future view corridors adopted as part of new development, and protected by recorded easements. “I’m going to recruit some folks to be able to do that because I don’t know every project that comes through on consent that has a view corridor, but I think it’s a fabulous idea,” LaCava said. “The database will initially be populated with new easements as they are approved through discretionary coastal permits,” LaCava explained later, via e-mail. “The goal is to research all such easements that have (already) been recorded and add them to the database (to be hosted by the LJCPA).” n Fay Avenue stop sign woes Trustee Fran Zimmerman expressed concern about a stop sign to be added next week on Fay Avenue (at West Muirlands Drive), which she and trustee Ray Weiss said would back up traffic along Fay near La Jolla High School, where cars exit the Coggan Aquatic Complex parking lot. Weiss suggested that someone contact the city and ask that installation be postponed until LJCPA has a chance to discuss the sign’s impact, which LaCava said he would look into. n Pier lights dimmed Trustee Whittemore reported that Scripps Institution of Oceanography has responded to concerns about bright lights shining on the beach from Scripps Pier and “being so bright that they competed with the moon.” Following an inquiry from trustee Weiss, the lights have been dimmed by as much as 80 percent, Whittemore said. u

OBITUARIES
Allison Burns Mc Bride 1920 – 2014
Allison Mc Bride passed away peacefully with her family at her side on June 13, 2014. She was born May 21, 1920, in Redlands, California, Allison grew up in a Victorian home her grandparents had built in an orange grove on Summit Avenue. She was the great-granddaughter of John Scott, the banker in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, who was known as one of his fellow Scotsman, Andrew Carnegie’s, earliest financial backers. Allison attended the University of California at Berkeley, graduating in 1942. World War ll caused Allison to change her plans to attend graduate school. Instead she took a job at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., working in Intelligence. During her
lunch hour on the steps of the Pentagon, she saw an advertisement from the United States Army Air Corps looking for women pilots. Allison had obtained her private pilot’s license while home from college during the summer in San Bernardino. In 1942, Allison joined the Army Air Corps Women’s Air Service Pilots and went through the rigorous Army Air Corps training. Upon graduation, based in Sweetwater Texas, she ferried a variety of military bombers including open cockpit airplanes during the war with orders to take them to various cities throughout the United States for repair. Her work freed up men for combat duty. Although she received the same Army Air Corps training as men, she was considered a civilian because she was a woman. In 1976 Congress gave military status to the nearly 1000 women WASP pilots. In March, 2010, Allison Mc Bride and all the WASP pilots were awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor, our nation’s highest civilian honor. Allison married H. Lesley Mc Bride of La Jolla, in 1954. Her husband was president of the Lesley Mc Bride Corporation, a real estate investment firm specializing in raw land acquisitions and sales throughout San Diego

County. They raised three daughters. Allison taught Sunday School, was a Brownie troop leader, and a long time member of the charity organization, Las Patronas. She served as president of Las Patronas in 1972-1973. Allison was also an avid tennis player, entering many singles and doubles championships at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. Allison and Lesley shared 37 years of marriage, and traveled and golfed together in Hawaii and Palm Desert. Allison is survived by her daughter, Cameron Mc Bride Volker of La Jolla; son in law, John Volker; and her grandchildren, Katherine Allison Volker and John Lesley Volker. She is also survived by her daughter, Lucy Mc Bride Olson; son in law, Torrey Olson; and grandson, Henry Olson of Sonoma. A Memorial Service will be held for Allison on Thursday, July 24, 2014, at 11:00 in the Chapel at St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Las Patronas or St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church. Please sign the guest book online at www. legacy.com/obituaries/ lajollalight.

Youth Baseball sends 10 teams to PONY Section tourney By Tom Murphy
pitched a winning game, and made countless plays at shortstop. Michael Campagna hit a home run against La Costa. With two wins in the Section tournament in Ramona, La Jolla Pony advanced to the Region tournament in Lakeside in early July. They lost to the top seed Lakeside team in their first game and had a rematch against Escondido in the elimination game. Blaise Gimber pitched a gem of a game yet Escondido scrounged two unearned runs to sneak past La Jolla Pony 2-0.
La Jolla Youth Baseball
For many baseball families in La Jolla, summer vacations have to wait. A successful PONY All Star team starts with a local Section tournament in mid-June and may last a couple of weeks. LJYB sent 10 teams to the PONY Section tournament. The top four teams advance to a Region tournament where the drive gets longer and the pitching gets tougher. Six LJYB teams passed muster at Section to play again in the Region tournament. The Super Region tournament begins in mid-July and a few LJYB teams still have a shot at moving on to Western Zone and ultimately — the PONY World Series. Unlike Little League where only the 12-year old kids play into their World Series in Williamsport, the PONY brand of baseball allows for every age group to compete for a World Series title, and LJYB usually enters teams in nine of these age-specific tournaments. n La Jolla’s Pony All Stars tried a new approach this year and hired the La Jolla High School Varsity pitching coach to manage the team. Jake Grosz grew up played baseball here so his return to the Pony field was a bit of a homecoming. He was assisted by Scott Montana, Rick MacDonald and John Ace. They ran high-intensity practices, much like they do at the high school level. The team was a mix of 13- and 14-year-old players,

n The Bronco Red team had a tough draw in the PONY Section tournament with a play-in game requiring three wins instead of two in order to advance to the Region tournament. They achieved this with wins over Tecolote (12-3), Paradise Hills (13-0) and Emerald (16-5). Their two losses were epic battles against rival North City that included many lead changes and “web gem” plays in the field. Arman Sanchez-Mohit led the charge batting .533 for the tourney followed by Marcus Scott at .500, Austin Schroeder at .450 and DJ Lindroth at .400. Home runs were hit by Scott (2), Lindroth, SanchezMohit and Johnny Meyerott. Bronco hurlers were led by Austin Schroeder, SanchezMohit and Aidan Canino. Also contributing on the hill were Lindroth, Justin Tang, Matthew Hammel and Noah Brown.

From La Jolla Youth Baseball, A25 La Jolla’s solid defense was anchored by Scott behind the plate and stellar plays in the outfield by Meyerott, Tang, Canino, Hammel and Devin Brown. There was an MVP-worthy performance by Sanchez-Mohit against Paradise Hills with a no-hitter through five innings (ending by mercy rule) along with a home run and a double. In the Regional tournament in Fallbrook, Bronco Red defeated the No. 1 seed Escondido 8-3 behind stellar pitching Sanchez-Mohit and Schroeder. This set up a rematch with North City, who prevailed against La Jolla 10-6. On July 6, the Bronco Red team played an elimination game against the home team Ramona, with the winner advancing to Super Region in Whittier. La Jolla took the lead with a grand slam by Lindroth, but Ramona battled back to tie the game 6-6. Down to the wire, Ramona loaded the bases in the bottom of the seventh and in dramatic fashion, got a hit to win the game 7-6 in a walk-off. The La Jolla Bronco players held their heads high because they knew they played their best baseball and bonded as a team. Manager Tim Scott and coaches Dave Hammel, Neil Hyytinen and Brian Canino did a great job with these boys. n Sometimes a good team gets a bad draw. Just ask the Bronco 11’s manager Geoff Longenecker. Most of these boys have been playing All Stars together since Pinto and have enjoyed a lot of success along the way. This year they opened the tournament against a red-hot North City team, who ran
the table this year to claim the Section banner. In their next game, the Bronco 11s lost to home team Ramona, who also made it to the finals. In tournament vernacular this is known as “Two & a BBQ,” but in their defense, they lost to the only two teams that advanced to Region. n Perhaps the most talented All Star team in LJYB this season is the Mustang Reds, managed by Brad Kates and coaches Bill Bold and Bill Luetzow. They went 4-0 in the PONY Section tournament, outscoring their opponents 41-12. With an early 19-4 win over La Jolla Blue (who opened with a big 16-7 win over Mira Mesa), they rolled past Ramona Red 8-1, setting up a showdown against their rival Tecolote Red. La Jolla beat them handily by a score of 9-2, and Tecolote Red battled through the loser’s bracket to face La Jolla again in the championship game, which La Jolla won 5-3 to claim the Section banner. Christian Nava led the team both on the mound and at the plate. His teammates call him “the Matador” which is fitting with only one earned run over 14 innings pitched in the tournament, and he posted a team leading .643 batting average. Nava was supported by solid defense from Johnny Leutzow, Spence Carswell, Tony Ide, Nathan Latimer and Hunter Kates all coming up with “web gems” throughout Section play. Jackson Stratton, who has a cannon for an arm, caught every inning behind the plate and threw out every runner that attempted to steal. Connor Hobbs, Jake Bold and Jordan Stahl patrolled the outfield. Every player contributed to their Section championship and No. 1 seed in the Region tournament.

n Mustang Red continued their undefeated streak through the first three games in Carlsbad, defeating San Marcos (17-3), Escondido (6-1) and La Costa (6-2). They entered the Region Championship game against home team Carlsbad, who had one loss and came back through the loser’s bracket. La Jolla dropped their first postseason game 11-7 and in a double header for the title, Carlsbad came out on top with a 5-3 victory. Emotions were running high for La Jolla and these kids haven’t faced much adversity along the way, so this setback serves as an opportunity to regroup before heading into the Super Region tournament in San Marcos on July 17. n Another success story comes from the Mustang 9s team managed by Mike Campagna. They ran the table in the PONY Section tournament by beating Chula Vista South (9-5), and North City — twice (5-0) and (10-3) to secure another championship banner for La Jolla. In the Region tournament in Carlsbad, the Mustang 9s dropped their first game to Escondido and came back with a 6-5 win over San Marcos before being knocked out of the tournament by La Costa, who made it to the finals. n La Jolla’s Pinto Red team went 3-2 in the PONY Section tournament in Ramona with both losses coming against a very tough Tecolote team. La Jolla showed great ability to perform in the clutch, with strong finishes in a 17-14 extra inning win against Mira Mesa and a last inning 17-16 victory against Ramona, which advanced them to Region.
Kinsey Casdin, Dylan Waites and Tyler Boynton led the offensive charge, and they were supported by great defensive plays by Jack Circuit, Jack Stahl and Cole Roberts. In the Region tournament in Carlsbad, LJ’s Pinto Red rolled over their first two opponents, beating Fallbrook (13-1) and Carlsbad (16-3). They struggled again with Tecolote and lost a close game against La Costa but still advance to the West Zone tournament on July 17. Rick Boynton is doing a great job as manager of the Pinto Red. Jay Sakamoto managed the Pinto Blue team, who lost two close Section games to Paradise Hills and Ramona Red. The Pinto 7s team was managed by Mac Armstrong and they were knocked out of the Section tourney early with a tough draw, facing finalist San Marcos in their opener, followed by a 22-19 battle against Ramona. There is a ton of talent on that team and they will be a force next season. n The Shetland All Stars from La Jolla have a history advancing in their tournaments and this year is no exception. Led by Manager Charles Hartford, these 6-year-old boys have a lot of fight in them. They went 1-2 in the Region qualifier and 3-2 at Region in Fallbrook, scoring a total of 131 runs in eight games! La Jolla Shetland advanced to Super Region (Pool Play) in West Covina where they went 0-3 against some of the best teams in the land. n More information about La Jolla Youth Baseball at ljyb.org u

String Quartet’ Haydn gets top billing at SummerFest 2014 By David L. Coddon ot only the brilliance but the gentle spirit of Franz Joseph Haydn will be omnipresent at La Jolla Music Society’s SummerFest 2014, which opens July 30 and for which Haydn is this year’s festival’s featured composer. “He (Haydn) was an incredibly nice person. Like Dvorak and Mendelssohn, Haydn was one of those beautiful human beings who everybody loved,” said SummerFest Music Director ChoLiang Lin, whose festival program will feature “all sorts of facets of Haydn’s music.” SummerFest will run through Aug. 22 and include 15 concerts, most but not at all at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s Sherwood Auditorium. Lin’s choice for a featured composer wasn’t based solely on the Austrian master’s good nature. “He was a great composer,” said Lin. “Without him, Beethoven (a student of Haydn’s) and Schubert and a whole host of composers would have taken a different course. People always think of Mozart when they think of the classic Viennese era, but Haydn was

hen my first husband and I were married, an insurance salesman advised us only to insure ourselves against serious losses: his life and my contact lenses. It’s actually a little puzzling that it took me so long to figure out what was wrong with that statement, as my mother was an ardent third-generation feminist. Equal rights for women have been a family theme for as many generations back as anyone can remember. My grandmother, who had a Ph.D. in zoology in 1910, and great-grandmother, who graduated from college in 1880, were passionate suffragists. Unlike my childhood friends, my early years were filled with youth-level biographies of Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and even Margaret Sanger. (It couldn’t have been easy to write kids books about legalizing birth control. I think they were a little vague on some of the details.) One of my grade school reports was written, somewhat to the astonishment of my teacher, about the 19th amendment to the Constitution that gave women the right to vote. As I said in my impassioned oral report version, it took 72 years of
relentless effort from the time of the Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 until the 19th Amendment was passed in 1920 by only one vote. Of course, my classmates and I were years from being able to vote, and Seneca Falls might as well have been on Mars. A lot of blank stares. But my mother was so proud. As fate would have it, I had only sons and nephews, no daughters or nieces, not that I didn’t do my best to inculcate my sons with the value of feminism for both sexes. The nuances, never mind applications, of the term can be tricky. My younger son, Henry, came home from fifth grade one day in a huff announcing that the P.E. teacher was “sexist.” Turns out she gave the girls an extra serve in volleyball if they needed it, but not the boys. Henry wished me to take action. (I told my notyet-husband Olof about it on the phone that night and he said, “What? You don’t already have an appointment with the school board?”) I explained to Henry that it was important to clarify the issue. Was he distressed that one group, solely on the basis of sex, was being given an advantage over the other?
“Yeah!” he said. “And we lost!” “And if you had won?” “Then who cares how many serves they get. Call her, will you, mom?” It’s really sad to me that the word feminism has gotten such a bad rap when it just means political, social, and economic equality of the sexes. The term has unfortunately been bad-mouthed, coopted, distorted, and otherwise maligned, with feminists too often caricatured as testicletargeting harpies with shrill voices and bad haircuts. I don’t think any woman I know could really envision the life that women have historically lived when they couldn’t vote, couldn’t own property, and had no rights other than what a husband allowed. Never mind the 12 children we would each likely have. Believe me, that would definitely cut down on the lunch dates. Prevailing opinion in the second half of the 1800s was that higher education transferred blood from a woman’s reproductive organs to the brain, which would result in damaged children. Even bicycle riding was controversial for women. But if we think feminism has a bad reputation now, the early suffragists – women campaigning for the right to vote – were not only publicly maligned but jailed, sent to work houses, and even tortured. We take the vote for granted now, but as my mother wanted me
to remember, a lot of people worked really hard for this. It didn’t just happen. After the 14th amendment in 1868 bestowed citizenship on all persons born or naturalized in this country, famed suffragist Susan B. Anthony attempted to vote in the presidential election of 1872 on the grounds that women were citizens. (The only other legally-recognized categories of persons at the time were minors, aliens, idiots and felons.) The effort only succeeded in getting her arrested. “Are women people?” became a catchphrase of the suffragist movement. Sadly, there seem to be a few politicians still grappling with the question. Now I have a tiny granddaughter. I hope it won’t take her even a nanosecond to figure out what’s wrong with insuring her husband’s life and her contact lenses (which I’m sure will be obsolete by then anyway). I hope she’ll be as proud to be a feminist as I am. And you can be sure I’m already shopping for the early suffragists children’s series. But I might wait until she can pronounce Seneca Falls. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

This airport eatery is par for the course By Kelley Carlson he airport-based PGA Tour Grill concept seems to be taking off. Since May 9, the new golf-themed restaurant chain (a partnership between HMSHost and the PGA Tour) has opened in three cities, with several more planned through 2015. The flagship site is in a spacious corner just past the security checkpoint of Terminal 2 West at San Diego International Airport. It’s modeled after a golf clubhouse with dark woods, soft seating and scenic murals of Torrey Pines Golf Course. Memorabilia is everywhere, including a replica of the surfboard presented to the Farmers Insurance Open winner, and guests can watch golf TV programming from any vantage point in the restaurant. Other perks include free WiFi and ample space between seats to allow for luggage. “We have a large number of conveniences that travelers want,” said Scott Welding, director of brands and restaurant support for HMSHost. That also includes cuisine that’s beyond “typical” for what’s normally offered in airports. PGA Tour Grill’s tagline is “Eat Smarter, Play Harder,” which in terms of food means a number of heart-healthy and gluten-free options. And the quality is something that you would find “streetside” — items made from scratch, which showcase fresh produce and meats that are delivered almost daily. The day starts early at the restaurant. At the crack of dawn, people are fueling up for their journeys with dishes such as the Whole Wheat Buttermilk Cinnamon Pancakes, accented with lemon zest-scented berry compote and served with warm syrup;

n This week’s recipe:
PGA Tour Grill’s Habanero BBQ Shrimp Flatbread
Steak & Eggs; and the Egg White TLT (turkey bacon, lettuce, tomato) Sandwich on toasted whole-grain bread. There are juices and coffee, or to spice things up, the “bloody” Hangar One Chipotle Mary. The lunch/dinner menu is full of vegetarian and protein selections. Among the appetizers are the Hummus Trio & Grilled Vegetable Plate, containing triangles of sea-salted naan to be dipped in spreads of smoked paprika, edamame and a citrusy Greek yogurt; and the Quinoa Stuffed Portobello in a skillet, covered in tomatofennel sauce and melted burrata. Entrees range from the Chopped Kale & Romaine Salad, highlighted with tomato, avocado, herbed goat cheese, paprika pumpkin seeds, dried bing cherries and a pomegranate vinaigrette; to the sweet-andspicy Habañero BBQ Shrimp Flatbread. “Yet at the end of the day, everyone wants a burger,” said Rick Jauert, senior operations manager for HMSHost. There are buffalo and ground turkey varieties, along with the California Beef Burger — a 100 percent hormone- and antibiotic-free Brandt beef patty layered with Tillamook cheddar, house-made red onion jam, baby arugula, fried onion crisps and garlic aioli, between slices of artisan brioche. It can be complemented with a bucket of Sweet Potato Fries (or fruit or salad) and a pint of beer. The most popular brew is the Ballast Point Sculpin IPA; the “house” brand is the Carry On Citrus Ale. There are other libations, as well — golfthemed cocktails are part of the full bar offerings, including the crisp and fruity West Coast Swing with Hangar One Wild Blueberry Vodka, raspberry syrup, lemon juice and Sprite. u

It’s National Ice Cream Month “I spent last night with my two boyfriends, Ben and Jerry.” — Anonymous
I
n 1984, President Ronald Reagan, who had a real soft spot for ice cream, designated July as the month to pay tribute to one of his favorite indulgences. Since the Reagan-era, ice cream has evolved into a creamy, dreamy industry that practically suits every cultural, dietary and gustatory preference.
Frozen Freaks from Afar
n The Japanese, hands down, have mastered the art of frightful frosty treats. If you have a bizarre yen for raw horseflesh, sharkfin noodle, ox tongue, octopus, wasabi or poisonous pit viper, then check out Ice Cream City at the Namja Town Amusement Park in Tokyo, along with other creameries in those parts. n The Emerald Isle serves such quirky concoctions as Dingle gin, green peas and mint, smoked salmon, goat cheese and
caramelized shallot, toasted Irish oats and peat-smoked sugar ice creams. n The British ice cream purveyor, Lick Me I’m Delicious, features fish-and-chips ice cream as gross flavor of the month, along with novelty glow-in-the-dark jellyfish, at a whopping 140 British pounds a scoop. ($239 U.S.) n Folks Down Under offer whisky prune; the French have contributed foie gras and avocado flavors, while some domestic lollapaloozas include stinky Durian fruit coming out of the Big Apple, roasted garlic from Minneapolis and Portland’s herbal concoctions of mint leaves and sea urchin meringue. Syrup of Ipecac sorbet, anyone?
What’s your Fave Flave?

Michael Wilson directs the West Coast premiere of ‘Ether Dome,’ based on the true story of the discovery of ether as an anesthetic in 1846. Courtesy
‘Ether Dome’ taps medicine, science, religion and human suffering at the Playhouse By Diana Saenger Director Michael Wilson, who is staging “Ether Dome” at the La Jolla Playhouse, is enjoying the fruits of his labor and relishing his collaboration with playwright Elizabeth Egloff and the Playhouse’s creative team. In addition, on the day of this interview, his TV movie “A Trip to Bountiful,” was nominated for an Emmy award. “My music teacher from sixth grade was watching the announcements and called to congratulate me,” Wilson said. “That was very sweet. The buzz about the nominations will add more buzz to the play’s run at the Ahmanson Theatre after the Emmy awards.” “Ether Dome” is a look back at the idea of an inhaled form of anesthesia — nitrous oxide or ether — as a way of relieving pain during surgery. Wilson said when he was the artistic director of the Hartford Stage he went looking for something for playwright Egloff to create and came upon a statue of Horace Wells in a park. “In Hartford, Wells is perceived as the discoverer of ether,” Wilson said. ”But in Boston, it’s a different story. That’s where they have ‘Ether Day’ every year at a hospital to honor William Morton, who also claimed to invent ether. I started thinking, these two stories don’t line up. In my research, I found that Horace’s life inspired Robert Louis Stevenson to write “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,” so I thought, there’s a play here!” Wilson learned that Egloff was from Farmington, Connecticut outside of Hartford; her father was a doctor who went to Harvard Medical School, which factors heavily into the play; and she was nominated for an Emmy for her work on the script of “The Reagans” for Showtime. He commissioned Egloff to pen “Ether Dome.” “It’s amazing to work on a play that is set in this time of 1846 and explores the moment in our history when they were doing amputations, tumor removals and vasectomies without any kind of anesthesia!” Wilson said. “It’s hard to grasp
how people could endure the pain, and of course the answer to that is they often couldn’t. Sometimes people would die of shock on the operating table.” “Ether Dome” has many layers that touch on far more than treatment to eradicate pain, and how a doctor and his student play out an epic battle between altruism and ambition. “The play has a parallel expiration of substance abuse as we particularly see in Horace’s case, and the explorations of these gases lead him to find them exhilarating and ecstatic, not unlike recreational drugs today,” Wilson said. “That became a way for him to alleviate his own emotional and psychological pain at the loss of being betrayed by his young ward, William Morton, who stole his discoveries giving him no credit. This was someone Horace thought he loved and treated like a son or brother.” The cast has 16 actors including Michael Bakkensen (Playhouse’s “Light up the Sky”) as Horace Wells, William Youmans (Playhouse’s “Hands on a Hardbody”) as Dr. Jackson, and Tom Patterson (Playhouse’s “Sideways”) as William Morton. The play highlights many characters in its multiple themes. “There are father-son and teacher-mentor relationships, and if you’re not interested in medical diseases, surgeries or dentistry, I think we all had mentors or teachers like the one that called me at 5:45 this morning,” Wilson said. “Ether Dome” explores responsibility to those relationships and the reality that is often a blurred situation for many people as the lines can cross between exploiting and honoring. “Liz is asking some pretty big questions with this play that delve into personal responsibility in medical ethics dealing with how our healthcare doles out — whether based on needs or means.” u n IF YOU GO: “Ether Dome” runs through Aug. 10 at the Mandell Weiss Forum at La Jolla Playhouse, UCSD campus.

UCSD’s Geisel Library draws revelers to Steampunk Tea “Metropolis” from 1927. You might call it a mad mix of re-imagined steam-engine-era sci-fi fantasy and modern technology, or, as Scott Paulson, the man behind last month’s Steampunk Tea at UC San Diego’s Geisel Library, put it: “Dungeons and Dragons with better costumes — Jules Verne-chic!” The June 29 event was the second, moreor-less-annual Steampunk Tea for Paulson, who is the library’s events coordinator, carillon-master (he performs live on Geisel’s
rooftop chimes and welcomes requests), and director of the Teeny-Tiny Pit Orchestra and the Not-So-Silent Film Festival. Besides iced tea and finger foods, the Tea offered interactive displays of Victorian paper theaters and masks; period postcards to handwrite and send to family and friends; and steam-punkish music, with audience participation on unusual but userfriendly instruments like musical saws, ceremonial bells, train whistles, thunder tubes, ratchets, bulb horns and exotic
birdcalls. There were even take-home party favors: jellybeans, Victorian fans and “divining rings” — finger-size compasses. Best of all, there was the opportunity to interact with dozens of writers, inventors, program-planners, costume-wearers and costume-designers, who call themselves part of the wide and welcoming steampunk community. If all this neo-Victoriana sounds appealing, Paulson will be hosting a Victorian paper theater festival in August. For details, visit scottsounds.com u

By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Steampunk. It’s more than a fad for dressing up in neo-Victorian costumes. It’s a lifestyle embraced by thousands of fans worldwide, who flock to annual festivals held in venues from Morristown, New Jersey to Ipswich, Australia. The steampunk aesthetic includes corsets and goggles, high hats and low necklines, but its inspiration is the late-19th century novels of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne, plus films like Fritz Lang’s silent classic,

From SummerFest, B1 and composer-conductor Leonard Slatkin, who will preside over the festival finale on Aug. 22. There also will be an “Homage to Tchaikovsky” on Aug. 2, an evening of Baroque Masterworks on Aug. 8 (St. Jamesby-the-Sea Church) and more. “We’re going to have (pianist) Orion Weiss, who’s going to bring his wife Anna Polonsky (also a pianist) with him,” Lin said. They will be part of the “Eine Kleine Nachtmusik” program on Aug. 3 at TSRI. “And Martin Beaver, first violinist of the Tokyo Quartet” (Aug. 12, in the second Haydn concert). “I think we have a pretty interesting mix. There are some new wonderful young musicians — folks in their early 30s — coming in this summer who are rapidly establishing strong careers.” Thirty-five-year-old Alison Balsom is not new to the La Jolla Music Society, but she is making her SummerFest debut, much to the delight of LJMS president and artistic director Christopher Beach. “Alison’s whole program is as new and challenging as the repertory can provide,” said Beach, extolling Balsom’s passion and clarity. “That’s the template for any artist in the performing arts, and she excels at both.” As usual, Beach has high praise for music director Lin’s festival programming, which he cites as organic. “We program the festival as a whole, not as a series of concerts,” Beach said, proceeding to sketch a kind of mosaic on a sheet of paper at his desk in the LJMS offices. “It’s a kind of elegant musical jigsaw puzzle,” he explains, “that needs pieces to excite you and to surprise you, and comfortable favorites.

His contributions to musical form earned him the epithets “Father of the Symphony” and “Father of the String Quartet.” n Haydn spent much of his career as a court musician for the wealthy Esterházy family at their remote estate. nH aydn was a devout Catholic who prayed the rosary when he had trouble composing. He normally began the manuscript of each composition with “in nomine Domini” (“in the name of the Lord”) and ended with “Laus Deo” (“praise be to God”). n Haydn often found solace by sitting at the piano and playing “Gott erhalte Franz den Kaiser,” which he composed in 1797 as a patriotic gesture.

repertory they don’t know,” said Beach, “or the artist presents an interpretation that challenges the way they know a work.” This, Beach said, is where the excitement comes in as well. “Everything (during SummerFest) is one night only, so the performances live in people’s memories. And they’re live. Anything can happen. “The more and more I know, the more I believe chamber music is the ultimate classical music experience. The chamber music concert is of a scale that a serious classical music lover can get his greatest reward because there is both the intimacy and the complexity, the immediacy and the richness.” While reveling in this year’s festival, both Beach and Lin are also looking forward to fall 2017, when LJMS will move into a new $40 million performing arts center on Fay Avenue. It will include a 500-seat concert hall as well as office space. “I think it’s immensely exciting,” said Lin, who called the venue “a dream of mine for the longest time.”

New take on a family tree offered at Community Center
L
a Jolla resident and author Mel Bartholomew will offer a new way to create family trees, 2 p.m. July 17 and July 24 at the La Jolla Community Center, 6811 La Jolla Blvd. His method uses lines to demonstrate the length of someone’s life, the length of a marriage or children’s lives. “A traditional family tree can be very confusing,” he said. “Though you can see the people on it, you have no sense of how old they were or what they experienced in life.” Using his method, one could also incorporate military service or travel. $10-20. RSVP requested at (858) 459-0831. u
