La Jolla breached fireworks agreement
We do ... love marriage proposals by the sea, A3
Cool canines can compete for playful titles, A12
By Pat Sherman a Jolla’s annual Fourth of July pyrotechnics display at La Jolla Cove captivated crowds again this year — despite another last-minute cancellation scare weeks before the event. After La Jollans ceased looking skyward that night, however, sparks continued to fly at Scripps Park between staff managing the event and a representative from Coast Law Group who was there to monitor the cleanup, per the terms of a settlement agreement between La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation (LJCFF), City of San Diego and the law firm. For the past four years, on behalf of its Coastal Environmental Rights Foundation (CERF), Coast Law Group has sued to prevent the fireworks from taking place, or to limit their scope, due to concerns about their impact on the environment. In a July 7 Fireworks letter to the over La city attorney’s Jolla Cove office and Greg Wiest Latham & Watkins, the law firm that has defended the LJCFF against CERF’s lawsuits pro bono for the past four years, Coast Law asserts that the LJCFF intentionally breached the settlement agreement by not allowing its representative to monitor the fireworks cleanup as agreed. The letter states that Livia Borak, an associate attorney with Coast Law Group there to inspect the cleanup on July 4, was not permitted entrance to the launch area to monitor cleanup once it was deemed safe to enter by the fire marshal (about 11:15 p.m.), and was harassed and berated by security and LJCFF lead organizer, Deborah Marengo.

‘Fairy shrimp’ impact on trolley extension subject of new report
S
an Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) has released a supplemental environmental document for the Mid-Coast Trolley extension project that evaluates a previously unidentified impact to San Diego fairy shrimp, a federally listed endangered species. The 45-day public comment period for this document will end Sept. 2. The report — available at sandag.org/midcoast — discloses impacts to fairy shrimp that were detected adjacent to the existing railroad tracks during surveys in 2014, and also identifies proposed mitigation measures. Public comments are limited to the analysis of impacts to fairy shrimp. They may be submitted in writing via U.S. mail, e-mail or fax, or may be made orally on the project’s voicemail. n U.S. mail: Ms. Leslie Blanda, Mid-Coast Project Manager, San Diego Association of Governments 401 B St., Suite 800 San Diego, CA 92101 n E-mail: midcoast@sandag.org n Voicemail: (619) 595-5620 Responses to comments received on the supplement will be provided in the final environmental document.

Permit review group considers notable housing projects La Jolla
Development Permit Review Committee Left: Antonio Sacido says he does not intend to rent out the companion units he wants to build on his property in the La Jolla Mesa neighborhood above Bird Rock. Pat Sherman Above: A street-level artist’s rendering of the proposed Zavaro residence at 1994 Via Casa Alta on Mount Soledad. Courtesy first 48 hours after a storm, treating it and discharging it onto the slopes. “We’re required to reduce the flows, treat the flows and direct them in a responsible manner,” Farrington said. “We tried to design these so that they would be projecting out at a direction that would not be directly impacting anybody’s house.” The property owner, Antonio Sacido, said he wants to construct the patios and companion units for his wedding, but does not plan to hold other events there or rent the units, converting them to office space and/or a gym after his nuptials. “The rumor has been running around — because we haven’t gotten any communication — that these are being built as summer rentals and party houses,” Sandpiper Place resident Bill Mitchell said.
“Why are you saying they are going to be rentals?” Sacido countered. “I will never rent this out — is that what you want me to say?” DPR member Angeles Liera said the best way to assure the units will not be rented is to remove the kitchen at 911 Skylark. The existence of a kitchen is how the city defines a space as habitable. Plans for the companion unit at 901 Skylark include only a sink and refrigerator, which the city does not classify as a kitchen. City code states that before a building permit may be issued for a companion unit, the property owner shall enter into an agreement with the city — approved by the city attorney — stating that neither the primary residence or companion unit may be sold or conveyed separately; and that the property owner will reside in the main
residence or the habitable companion unit. DPR members discussed the need for additional parking to prevent a bottleneck on the cul de sac where the home is located and surrounding streets, particularly in the event more large events are held there, or if the units are eventually rented, which, despite Sacido’s professed intent, city ordinances allow, it was noted. Neighbor Eileen Hyslop, who chairs an architectural jury of the La Jolla Mesa Vista Homeowners Association (HOA), said she did not learn about the companion units until July 13. She said they are prohibited per her HOA’s covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC&R). In a letter to Hyslop, La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) board president Joe LaCava said the DPR and LJCPA

By Pat Sherman During the July 15 meeting of the Development Permit Review (DPR) committee — which analyses all discretionary permits in La Jolla (outside the Shores) and submits recommendations to the La Jolla Community Planning Association to be ratified and sent to the city — the group considered the addition of two companion units (“granny flats”) for a property in the La Jolla Mesa subdivision (perched above Bird Rock). The applicant is seeking coastal and site development permits and a lot line adjustment to build the units, plus a deck, staircase, swimming pool/spa and pergola on adjoining properties at 901 and 911 Skylark Drive. During a final review of the project, DPR members and neighbors discussed hillside drainage issues related to the project at length. During a previous review, DPR members requested a drainage study and measures to control the impact of storm runoff on homes downhill. Civil engineer Mark Farrington said basins would be installed beneath each proposed patio, staggering the water-flow during the

final review in August, pending completion of the city’s environmental document. The applicant is seeking to obtain Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum Certification for the home.
DPR members offer a courtesy review of plans in these artist’s renderings to add a two-story addition to this potentially historic home at 335 Dunemere Drive. Courtesy “can’t consider private restrictions or agreements (such as CC&Rs), only whether a project conforms to the La Jolla Community Plan and City of San Diego Municipal Code.” DPR member Mike Costello noted HOAs may file lawsuits to enforce their restrictions, potentially having more recourse than the city or a planning group. “You have the force of the law and a contract behind you,” he told HOA members in attendance. Sacido said he held an open house for neighbors immediately adjacent his two properties to discuss the companion units, adding that La Jolla Mesa’s CC&Rs only require him to submit plans to the architectural jury when he is seeking a building permit, not a discretionary permit. “Once I get the approval for a discretionary permit and I want to apply for a building
permit, then I have to go through the homeowner association,” he said. Although CC&Rs aren’t within the purview of the DPR, Liera suggested that applicants in such situations first communicate with their HOA before beginning the discretionary review process with the city. “Life will be much easier on you,” she said. Costello suggested the applicant return to DPR (most likely in August) to deal with parking and provide proof of his signed, city attorney-approved habitation agreement.
In other DPR discussions n Hillside Soledad home: The DPR considered a preliminary review of plans to build a two-story, 4,843-square-foot home above a basement-level living area with
2,491 square feet of deck and a swimming pool and spa on a vacant parcel at 1994 Via Casa Alta (west of the Mt. Soledad cross). The home would be built on an environmentally sensitive hillside, with the pool on the lower level and a concrete wall encasing the deck. The project would be 37 feet tall from its lowest elevation. Sasha Varone of Golba Architecture said the city has “signed off” on the majority of the project, and just began preparing an environmental document for it. She said the home’s square footage and bulk is less than the average home on the street. The home will have a three-foot setback (instead of the allowed six feet), so that it doesn’t encroach too far into the hillside, she said. The applicant will return to the DPR for a
n Height meets history: The DPR offered a courtesy review for a proposal to construct a 74-square-foot addition to a onestory home at 335 Dunemere Drive, plus a 647-square-foot, two-story addition with two decks, blocks from the coast. Architect Ron Despojado said the project wouldn’t block the view of the ocean down Dunemere, although neighbor James Geiger said it would block the view of the ocean from his home, and asked that DPR members and the applicant take this into consideration. Monte Vista Avenue resident Julie Hatch said she felt it was “a shame” to obstruct Geiger’s view when the couple requesting the addition only lives in the home part of the year. Despojado said that although he understands those concerns, private views are not protected, only public views. Despojado said he is meeting with a city historian to assess whether the property is considered historic, and how that might affect his client’s plans. Liera, who also sits on the La Jolla Historical Society’s Preservation Committee, suggested the architect consult that committee in the near future. “I think you’re generally on the right track from what I’ve seen,” she said.

The Copley Trust is seeking to divide the late San Diego Union-Tribune Publisher David Copley’s sprawling ‘Foxhole’ mansion at Virginia Way and Ivanhoe Avenue in two. The city is reviewing preliminary plans. Pat Sherman From Housing Projects, A5 Further west, a representative for La Jollans’ Mitt and Ann Romney confirmed that construction on their new home at 311 Dunemere Drive should begin within the next two to three weeks. n An estate divided? Another project scheduled for a courtesy review was postponed because the applicant did not attend the meeting. The David Copley Trust is seeking a coastal development permit and tentative parcel map to divvy up the sprawling “Foxhole” estate at Virginia Way and Ivanhoe Avenue, owned by former San Diego Union-Tribune Publisher David Copley until his death in 2012.
The applicant is seeking a coastal development permit to consolidate eight separate lots on which the mansion is situated, then divide the land into two lots (of 14,643 and 13,523 square feet) — demolishing 174 square feet from the existing residence to create two, singlefamily residences from the existing one. “It’s just removing that connecting chunk of house” and creating a new lot line, City of San Diego development project manager Michelle Sokolowski said, adding that city staff is evaluating preliminary plans and providing comments. The property has not sold since it went on the market in spring 2013 for $7.95 million. The Light will report on the project as it makes its way through the discretionary review process. u

Frontline Cancer SCOTT M. LIPPMAN, M.D.
The value of Comprehensive Cancer Centers
I
t’s estimated that approximately 14 million Americans alive today have had cancer. Some are cancer-free; some are still fighting it. This year, they will be joined by another 1.6 million persons who will receive that fearful diagnosis. The grim news, of course, is that the ranks of cancer patients are also trimmed each year by death: More than 585,000 annually, a rate second only to heart disease nationally (but first in San Diego). Annual statistics from the American Cancer Society show that the overall death rate from cancer in the United States has steadily declined over the past two decades. But progress is uneven. The overall death rates for the four most common cancers — prostate, female breast, lung and colorectal — have all declined, for example, but the incidence rates for other kinds of cancer, such as melanoma of the skin, kidney, leukemia, pancreas and liver, are rising. The rates of new cancer cases and cancer deaths also vary by racial and ethnic group. Between 1991 and 2010, the cancer death rate declined more than 50 percent for black men ages 40-49, more than in any other group. Yet black men continue to
have the highest cancer death rate among all ethnic groups in the country. These numbers illustrate the complexity of cancer. It is different in every patient, even among patients with the “same” cancer. The findings also highlight the potential importance of a National Cancer Institutedesignated Comprehensive Cancer Center (CCC), which by definition must: n Demonstrate depth and breadth of research in the laboratory, in the clinic and in population-based studies, with substantial overlap to promote bridging and collaboration, n And possess the professional and public education outreach capabilities necessary to disseminate clinical and public health advances. In other words, to effectively translate research into real-life therapies and common knowledge. When available, there are obvious reasons for seeing an oncologist and/or visiting a CCC like the UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center when cancer is suspected. After all, cancer is their specialty. It’s more likely a correct diagnosis will be made early and the appropriate therapies applied effectively. This seems like common sense and there
are abundant anecdotes to support the idea, but surprisingly little empirical evidence. However, at the recent annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), the foremost organization in clinical cancer care with more than 35,000 members, a group of researchers from City of Hope (itself an NCI-designated CCC) and Columbia University in New York described the results of a study that analyzed the outcomes of a diverse group of 53,618 cancer patients living in Los Angeles between 1998 and 2008. Even accounting for factors such as age, gender and socioeconomics, cancer patients who were treated at CCCs experienced a better five-year overall survival rate (the chance that they’ll still be alive five years after diagnosis) than patients treated at non-CCC or community sites. For example, the five-year overall survival rate for breast cancer patients treated at a CCC was 89 percent compared to 86 percent elsewhere; for oral cancer, 68 percent to 59 percent; for lung, 28 percent to 17 percent; and for pancreas, 13 percent to 6 percent. The study did note a specific challenge: Ready or equal access to an NCI-designated CCC is not enjoyed by all patients. Partly, it’s a matter of geography and numbers. There are just 41 NCI-designated CCCs in the country, unevenly distributed. A few cities boast more than one, but some entire states have none. San Diego is in the enviable position of being home to Moores, plus two NCI-designated Cancer Centers focused on laboratory science: the Salk
Institute Cancer Center and the SanfordBurnham Medical Research Institute. These two institutions emphasize basic cancer research in the laboratory, and with Moores have created the San Diego National Cancer Centers Council, or C3, to leverage their distinct and combined resources and talents for the benefit of Moores’ patients. The ASCO report, however, did note that patients without private insurance, of low socioeconomic status, of African-American or Hispanic backgrounds or living more than nine miles from a CCC were less likely to use a Comprehensive Cancer Center. “The key issue is the distribution of the highest quality, evidence-based care to the greatest number of patients no matter where they live,” said Clifford A. Hudis, M.D., immediate past president of ASCO. Optimal outcomes for all types of cancer require broad dissemination of the best, evidence-based treatments. Informed and capable oncologists, many of whom practice privately and independently as well as at CCCs, are key. Such doctors recognize and value having a CCC available to assist, to provide second opinions and access to experts in uncommon diagnoses as well as new technology and approaches. It benefits them — and their patients. u — Scott M. Lippman, M.D., is director of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center.

Precious pooches to compete for titles at Community Center By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla Community Center will present a pageant of pampered pups Friday, Aug. 1 during its inaugural Precious Pooch Parade and Dog Contest. Leading up to the 11:30 a.m. contest, vendors and exhibitors will be on hand to showcase products and services for dogs, starting at 10 a.m. Contest categories include: best tail wagging, best puppy, best senior dog, best original costume, best vocal performance, best trick, best mirror image (dog/owner lookalike), most obedient, most mysterious heritage, most glamorous, most adorable and ugliest dog. Contest entry is $6 per category or $25 for unlimited categories. “I’ve noticed that lots of our members are dog lovers,” said Community Center Executive Director Nancy Walters. “This is not a big, fancy formal dog show, this is just going to be something fun and an opportunity for our members and the community at large to show off their pets.” Judges for this event include: Warwick’s Bookstore owner Nancy Warwick; George Coles of Coles Carpet; Margo Schwab, who Walters said frequently matches her dog’s outfit to her own; Lizzie Davidson from Ark Antiques, a resale shop that benefits animal charities; community volunteer Sherry Ahern; and Community Center members
Jacqui Woods and Ann Elise Ryder. “There isn’t a similar event in La Jolla,” Ahern said. “There isn’t a parade for our four-legged friends. Now, thanks to the community center, there is! Make no bones about it, it’s going to be a fun day!” Hoping to make the contest an annual event, Walters said proceeds would go toward Community Center improvements, with a portion for the Spay Neuter Action Project (SNAP) – a non-profit that provides affordable spay/neuter procedures. To participate, register by Tuesday, July 29 at LJCommunityCenter.org or stop by the community center at 6811 La Jolla Blvd. (858) 459-0831. u

Trial ordered in attempted murder at Bird Rock motel Crime NEWS
A
man accused of fatally shooting a Linda Vista resident in the victim’s home and wounding another man in La Jolla three hours later must stand trial on murder and attempted murder charges, a judge ruled July 18. Joseph Anthony Hill — who has six prior felony convictions — faces up to 85 years to life in state prison if convicted. After a two-day preliminary hearing, Judge David Gill found that enough evidence was presented for the 44-year-old Hill to stand trial for the Dec. 29 murder of 47-year-old Sean O’Toole and the premeditated attempted murder of Travis Bondurant. A second defendant, Marla Caniglia, is charged with being an accessory after the fact in O’Toole’s murder and attempted murder as an aider and abettor in the shooting of Bondurant. Caniglia, 35, faces 12 years behind bars if convicted. According to court testimony, Hill and Caniglia went to O’Toole’s home in Linda Vista about 5 p.m. on Dec. 29. A woman, who was at the home, testified that Hill shot O’Toole once in the chest after a brief confrontation in the backyard. O’Toole died about 90 minutes later at a hospital. A motive for the shooting was not known. About three hours later, Caniglia drove Hill to the Biltmore Motel in La Jolla, where Bondurant was staying. The victim was shot once in the stomach and was discovered along La Jolla Boulevard, close to the motel.
According to court testimony, Caniglia and Hill had visited Bondurant a day earlier, and she fronted the victim $200 worth of methamphetamine with payment due the day he was shot. About 8:30 a.m. on Dec. 30, U.S. Marshals task force members saw Hill leaving a home in the 1600 block of Catalina Boulevard in Point Loma and approached him to make an arrest. Hill got into his vehicle and attempted to drive away, prompting several officers to open fire, wounding the defendant. Officers found a loaded 9 mm handgun next to Hill’s vehicle, authorities said. A criminalist testified that the bullets found after the O’Toole murder and the Bondurant attempted murder were fired from the same gun. The defendants will be back in court Aug. 12 for arraignment in Superior Court.

Spotlight on Local
Kerut excels with exceptional client experiences By Marti Gacioch Both local and vacationing customers of Kerut’s luxury boutique on Girard Avenue return again and again for the outstanding experience owner Lauren Turek provides. “People come in here and feel relaxed and happy while being styled from head to toe,” Turek said. “She can sip a glass of Champagne and he can sip a Red Stripe or a scotch. Those experiences stick in people’s heads, and that’s why a man from Minnesota called and said, ‘You’re my wife’s favorite store, can you send me a dress for her birthday?’ ” Turek said she opened the boutique four years ago and has watched it grow quickly. “I attribute that growth to the experiences we give clients in our store — that’s what it’s all about,” she said. “It’s a very competitive market these days, and from day one, I’ve wanted to provide people with an ‘experience.’ ” One such happening is new, local designer trunk shows, including one from Brisas (formerly Emortal), which offers cheeky fashion T’s by young designers. Kerut is also expanding some of its collections — like the Australian designs of We Are Handsome. “These are fun, colorful tunics featuring flamingos, sailboats on an
skinny boyfriend jeans in incredible washes, but they’re not floppy,” Turek explained. “They are sexy and you wear them with heels, but you can also wear them with ballet flats and a cardigan to go to a movie.” Kerut’s Current/Elliott line now includes leather jeans and T-shirts, including the Muffle T, Kerut’s bestseller. “It’s a tank top with a very high neckline and a longer body for people who have issues with their mid-section or who want to cover their hips or bum,” Turek said. “We have it in white, gray and leopard. It completely sold out in one week, so we have 20 people on a waiting list.” The boutique’s gift selection includes many items at affordable price points, said Turek, “We have beautiful fashion-y little silk scarves starting at $50 and we brought in some jewelry from L.A. all under $75 and earrings at $18,” she said. u

Shake It Up!
Skateboarder Tony Hawk assists at milkshake shop opening in La Jolla By Ashley Mackin hen it comes to milkshakes, the new ShakeAway milkshake bar — which opened its first U.S. location at 723 Pearl St. in La Jolla July 18 — is really shaking things up. For these customizable frosty treats, patrons have 180 options for mix-ins that are blended throughout the shake. “We don’t tell the customer what to do, the customer tells us what to do,” said Peter Dickson, CEO of the United Kingdom-based ShakeAway. “Because of the number of choices and possible combinations, there are

literally millions of options.” Pat Gerko of Bird Rock was the store’s first customer because, as she put it, “I love milkshakes!” She got in line before 9 a.m. that morning to ensure she would be the first customer. “I’m getting a chocolate, peanut butter, caramel, pecan and cherry shake,” she said. To celebrate the opening, professional skateboarding legend Tony Hawk stopped by to make a unique shake of his own. “I’m basically a purist at home, I make my kids black-and-white milkshakes with vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup, so this a whole
new thing, but it sounds like a good idea,” he said of his Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup, Whopper candy and vanilla milkshake. After tasting, he proclaimed he thought it would be a “No. 1 seller” and decided to call it the “Bird Man.” The Bird Man will be on the menu for six months and proceeds from the shake’s sale will benefit the Tony Hawk Foundation, which builds skate parks across the country. ShakeAway also provides lactose-free options, such as fruit smoothies and soybased ice cream. The shop is open daily, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., (858) 459-0094. u

RESIDENT ALERT LA JOLLA COMMUNITY AT RISK
We are notifying La Jolla residents and homeowners that SANDAG (San Diego Association of Governments) plans to construct a significant additional parking garage and 25-ft high elevated railway structure operating a minimum of 21 hours per day at the La Jolla Village Square (LJVS) shopping center. The current plan would compromise the safety of our neighborhood. In addition, the elevated railway structure includes electrical poles and wires which would be visible to residents and visitors, negatively impacting the beauty of our community. Stores and restaurants in this shopping center may be in jeopardy. We are convinced it would be unwise to build an additional parking garage and a railway stop at La Jolla Village Square. It would create significant additional congestion, noise, pollution, blight, increased crime in this La Jolla community, and be a waste of taxpayer money. Several other rail stops are planned at nearby locations at the VA, UCSD, and Westfield UTC Shopping Center. An additional parking garage is planned at Westfield UTC, and could be planned at more suitable locations with sufficient land areas, instead of building an ill-conceived rail stop and parking garage at LJVS.
Please join us in opposing this construction by signing the online petition today. Type on your computers address bar:

Urge your La Jolla friends and family to also sign the petition. Thank you for helping to protect our La Jolla community.

OPINION

Our READERS WRITE
Parking spots in town are not worth fighting over On Saturday, July 12, a young lady stood in defiance as she held a parking spot for her friend. She challenged the driver, who was trying to park, to run her over. He eventually left. In my opinion, people should quit this practice, it leaves a bad taste. Whichever car gets there first has right of way to that space! Juliana Beletsis La Jolla
Support for views in last week’s letters I would like to respond to the two readers who wrote about parking at Vons, and leaf blowers in the July 17 issue of La Jolla Light. First, I absolutely agree with Sandra Edgington, about her unfair treatment after shopping at Vons. I very rarely witness any respect toward elderly people, here, in California. I am from Scotland, originally, and it shocks me to see how this lack of respect occurs here, so often. I could understand if Sandra was some beach bum, or, some smart aleck trying to take advantage of free parking. However, it would have been blatantly obvious that this woman is not that type of person. It saddens me to read about this type of harassment toward an elderly person. Sandra, you go girl! I am proud of you for standing up for yourself and changing your patronage to Ralphs. With regards to leaf blowers, they drive me absolutely crazy! There is so much noise that our nervous systems are assaulted by on a daily basis that we can do without this one. Kat Cowley, I think it is awful that you are held hostage in your office by the fumes. The fact that you cannot open a window makes me feel hot and claustrophobic just reading about it. I know that there are bigger problems in the world, but it is all these small ones that add up to daily stress! Down with leaf blowers! Are rakes as extinct as dinosaurs? Ruthie Gordon La Jolla
State of our dirty Village streets is deplorable Thank you, La Jolla Light, for attempting to clean up the Village through images of “tarnishing” in town. The intersection of Silverado and Girard in the center of La Jolla has multiple examples of things thrown on the sidewalks and untended trash receptacles. What must Scandinavians and other tourists think! Specifically, at the entrance to Union Bank on Girard Avenue there is a trash receptacle that is usually overflowing — especially on Mondays — and large blotches of white paint or bird excrement (it isn’t clear which). The latter has been ignored by the bank for weeks. All are an insult to the architect Robert Mosher. If La Jolla is this careless about its appearance, what does that imply? Susan Murphy La Jolla
Hillary’s visit: Just part of our Orwellian nightmare
Let dogs be leash-free n I am responding to last week’s article regarding permitting dogs to be off-leash on the beach. As someone who has resided near the La Jolla beaches mentioned for more than 50 years, I have observed thousands and thousands of beachgoers. Their behavior has ranged from considerate and respectul of the environment, the residents and each other to rude, rowdy, destructive and dangerous. The dog owners are unfailingly polite, considerate, mindful of their dogs and the dogs of others at all times. They clean up after their pets and make sure others do the same — and they frequently clean up the trash left by the other beachgoers! They speak to each other, their dogs and residents in a civil manner and there is no shouting, deafening music, fighting or profanity — a welcome change from what we experience all too often. Neither the dogs nor their owners get into fights and there has been no need to call lifeguards or police. They would like to be able to use the beach early in the morning and/or at dusk when it is virtually empty of people. Under the circumstances, there seems no logical reason to ban our canine friends from the beach; we are constantly learning more about how much they do for us in the way of safety, service and even medical assistance. Surely we can accommodate them on the beach for a few hours a day? Gloria V. Lynch La Jolla n I’m not a dog owner, but I love dogs and most other animals. I often walk the beach in question in the morning hours, and I enjoy seeing all these dogs run freely, off leash. Some of them enjoy an early morning swim, others
just play with their friends. Big dogs, small dogs, beautiful ones and not-so-handsome ones, all get along and have fun. I see the dog owners diligently pick up after their animals. There is less trash on this beach then on many others. It is, all in all, a beautiful and gratifying experience down there. I’m in full support of the efforts to open this beach to dogs in the early morning and evening hours. Dr. Marilies Schoepflin La Jolla
Don’t let dogs be leash-free n This is a response to the article in the La Jolla Light concerning off-leash animals at the beach. Rick Swisberg assured us that dog owners diligently clean up after their pets. I suggest Mr. Swisberg take a walk along the sidewalk in front of the beach from the Cove to its south end any afternoon. Often, dog urine is running into the middle of the walkway because every dog that passes a post that another dog has “visited” must leave its own “calling card” as well. Those animal owners know full well what’s up, and think nothing of sharing their love of animals with the rest of us. You’ve asked for public input, here’s mine. Del Mar has a beach for dogs. I’d prefer you take your animals there. Michael Irby La Jolla n In response to the front-page article regarding off-leash dogs on local beaches, I cannot voice my objections loudly enough. I am one of the people who frequent the beaches before 9 a.m., regardless of what some dogowners say. I’m tired of being barked at, nipped at, and having belligerent dog owners trying to tell me that it’s OK to have their dogs off-leash on a public beach. And, like Nancy Linck, I live here because I love the beaches and the access to other recreational areas. Dog owners who need to let their dogs run off-leash have access to various dog parks around the city. Beaches are for people, not dogs. And, that’s what the current law says. For those of us who are allergic to dogs and don’t want anything to do with them, we have to face off-leash dogs every day in department stores, restaurants, on the streets, and on the bike paths. I don’t understand why people think their mutts should be afforded the same rights as those of us who don’t like dogs in the first place. As far as I’m concerned, I applaud the lifeguards and animal control officers who issue citations to people who let their dogs run free with no leash. Hopefully, those owners will eventually realize that they are not above the law and will stop forcing their four-legged creatures on the rest of the public. Dale S. Duffala Bird Rock

That over 1,000 people didn’t show up to ARREST Hillary (during her June 25 book-
signing visit to Warwick’s in La Jolla) shows how frighteningly gullible and easily duped this nation has become. Then came your second “installment” about her visit in your July 10 issue, an essay titled, “My 30 seconds with Hillary,” and I had to fight the nausea. TRULY frightening! How disconnected from reality ARE Americans? Do you put blinders on in life, and ONLY accept the word of politicians and their stenographers, the mainstream media, as “truth”? Mark Twain, were he still alive, would probably be quoted with something like, “I never thought I’d see the day when Americans refused to see the truth, and would ignore facts, science and experts — and their own eyes — to actually believe what comes from the mouth of a politician.” Since he’s not, I’ll leave you with H.L. Mencken’s, if-the-shoe-fits quote: “No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.” Rand Hogen Windandsea

Vons is right and ready to protect its parking While I do not condone what was described as rude behavior by the Vons parking attendant, I think Vons has every right to restrict their parking to their patrons. Two or three weeks ago, I found no parking space in this lot when I wanted to shop at Vons and I spoke to the manager expressing what we all know: non-patrons
are stealing their parking spaces. Years ago when I lived in Montclair Village (Bay Area), Safeway had to resort to having you get a permit from a machine that had to be validated or you had to pay for using their lot. I’d prefer to deal with a parking attendant. Jim Hancock La Jolla
City crews need to move these old sandbags There is a mosquito breeding ground in the heart of La Jolla on the 8000 block of Girard Avenue heading down to the Cove, on the northeast side of the street (right along La Valencia’s side). Water is generated at the other storm drain immediately up from this one — water comes OUT of the storm drain. This is NOT a result of irrigation in the median. Rita Alanis La Jolla
Whaling Bar is better off as Café La Rue Many La Jolla residents mourn the passing of the Whaling Bar & Grill with its dark shutters and dusty windows, dimly lit interior and masculine décor. But tourists in La Jolla are attracted to a restaurant with a Southern California environment, not one that looks like a transplant from New York City. If the Whaling Bar had been profitable, it would not have been closed. Apparently, there weren’t enough La Jolla residents who supported it. In contrast, the (remodeled) Café la Rue is
filled with sunlight and warm décor. The beautiful widows open to the street and entrance of the La Valencia Hotel. Spanish tiles and flowering plants decorate the walkway. The staff is courteous and friendly without hovering. The menu is varied with breakfast, lunch, happy hour and dinner. A major point: there is no television showing sports, news and other distractions. Café la Rue is worth a visit. u Liz Baker La Jollan for 44 years
Is city engineering an end to commercial zones? A gated residential community is coming to a commercial zone near you. This development may or may not be in compliance with San Diego’s Land Use Code and very likely will not have public notice, nor any community review. Recently, the city has allowed development of residential gated communities to take over commercial space with only token commercial areas to satisfy the “mixed use” requirement. The commercial units are entirely outside the gates of the residential area. More importantly, the city has ignored the commercial off-street parking requirement in the Land Use Code. Not having off-street parking forces commercial parking for customers and clients into the streets. In addition, ignoring the commercial off-street parking requirement gives developers more space for residential units, and residential units are where the money is. Mixed-use commercial zones were established years ago to provide neighborhoods with local commercial areas so that residents don’t have to travel to Mission Valley or University Town Center to visit a plant nursery, an auto garage or a hardware store. The idea of a “mixed use” designation was to allow residential units on the upper stories and in the rear where commercial shops would not do well. The current law
requires unobstructed off-street parking for the commercial parts of the development. This off-street commercial parking is distinct from the required residential parking. How can the city just ignore the code and not require commercial off-street parking? They do so by issuing a Process One permit, effectively an over-thecounter permit that requires no public notification and is exempt from community review. They do this in the name of “reducing red tape and streamlining” the permit procedure. However, the city’s real goal is to densify our community — even if the Land Use Code has to be ignored to do it. More than 20 new residential units have recently been built in two gated communities on Turquoise Street — the southern entry to La Jolla. Is anyone naïve enough to believe this type of development will not find its way into La Jolla? About 10 years ago Joanne Pearson, then chairman of the La Jolla Design Review Committee, told me, “All we (the community) have is the Land Use Code.” If our elected and appointed city officials choose to ignore the code, we don’t have much at all to preserve the character of our community.

From Fireworks, A1
Fireworks debris
The letter states Borak repeatedly informed Barbara Folsom of Omni Security (hired by LJCFF) that prohibiting access to the launch site after it was declared safe constituted a breach of the settlement agreement. The pyrotechnics contractor, Los Angelesbased Court Wizard Special Effects, informed Borak that she would have to remain out of the fenced area where the launch took place until the cleanup was complete because she was wearing thin, canvas shoes. In a statement provided by Latham & Watkins, Folsom recounted, “The fencing company had also requested access to remove the fire retardant fencing and they were told no, for the same reasons. Ultimately, the fencing company decided to come back the next day. Livia continued to try to intimidate me and pressure me into letting her into the unsafe area. … As per Livia’s request, I inquired why the area was still unsafe and I was told there were wires, broken boards, nails, hot ashes, equipment laying all over the ground and walking around it was unsafe for us.”
allegedly collected by Livia Borak of Coast Law Group at La Jolla Cove July 14 — 10 days after fireworks cleanup was supposed to occur. Courtesy of Coast Law Group
Borak eventually stood on the adjacent seawall and took pictures of the cleanup over the fencing. According to Coast Law’s letter, Marengo arrived at 2 a.m. and asked what Borak was still doing there. Borak claims Marengo escorted her into the launch area and began to harass and insult her. Borak said she was asked to leave after five minutes due to “safety concerns” with her shoes, although she said Marengo and several male companions were wearing open-toed shoes or sandals. Borak was eventually given access to the launch area after the cleanup concluded, around 4 a.m. “Because the 2014 event has passed (and)

LJCFF cannot cure its default, CERF is willing to meet and confer regarding the aforementioned events, LJCFF’s default and possible means for salvaging the settlement,” Coast Law’s July 7 letter states. “If LJCFF and CERF cannot reach a mutually agreeable resolution of the breach, CERF will pursue all of its available remedies, including rescission of the agreement.” Responding to Coast Law in a July 14 letter, Jeffrey Carlin of Latham & Watkins refuted Coast Law’s claim, saying it “misrepresents the facts and misreads the settlement agreement.” In his letter, Carlin contends that the agreement “did not authorize CERF the access pursued by Borak,” and violated a provision of the agreement which states “CERF shall not interfere with the cleanup in any way,” only observe the cleanup from a “viewing location” at the top of the staircase from Ellen Browning Scripps Park to the bluffs northwest of the launch site. “We reject your proposal … to extend additional access rights to CERF for any 2015 Independence Day fireworks display held by LJCFF,” it added. “CERF/Coast Law Group’s actions the past three years demonstrate the public safety risks inherent
in your request. … LJCFF will continue to honor its obligations under the agreement and expects CERF to do the same.” During the 2012 fireworks, Latham & Watkins’ letter noted, Borak snuck inside the secure, fenced-in area while the fireworks were being launched — “an intrusion that could have been fatal or caused serious injury to Ms. Borak except that the security team spotted her and removed her from her hiding spot moments before a nearby misfire.” In 2013, Carlin’s letter states, “members of Coast Law Group/CERF bull-rushed the launch area minutes after the event and nearly caused a fistfight with the crew.” In a July 16 response letter, CERF countered Latham & Watkins “characterization of the matter,” adding that “LJCFF’s park use permit expired at 10 p.m., six hours before the fireworks contractors opened up the park to the public, including CERF. … The LJCFF (and its contractors) had absolutely no right to refuse CERF access to the launch area after 10 p.m.” The letter concluded by stating that, “though the insufficiency of LJCFF’s cleanup efforts were not the subject of CERF’s notice of breach … not only was fireworks debris left on the bluff overnight … a site visit to the park and surrounding bluff area on July 14 confirmed that, once again, LJCFF is not concerned with the impact of its fireworks show or obeying cleanup directives.” CERF’s July 16 letter includes photos of debris Borak allegedly collected from the area the morning of July 14. The La Jolla Village Merchants Association is currently exploring the possibility of taking over the fireworks from the LJCFF, and expanding the event. u

Boys Golf: Bishop’s Knights relax with humor during 2014 season By Ed Piper joined the high school golf team because the offer was simply too good to pass up: skip school to go play golf for free,” said senior co-captain Chase Lauer of The Bishop’s School golf team. Lauer, one of only two seniors along with fellow co-captain Ben Brewer on the traveling eight, obviously has a sense of humor. He, with Brewer, tried to use that humor and light-heartedness to make teammates feel relaxed and comfortable as they dealt with the very challenging game of golf during the just-finished 2014 season. “I wasn’t trying to shoot the best round of my life every match,” said Lauer, a 2014 Bishop’s School graduate. Lauer’s goal was to be consistent and deliver a good score to help the team gain points in the match. In a match against another high school team, the squad’s six players vie for the lowest combined stroke total against their opponents. This is different from match play, which takes place in CIF competition after the league season, in which two players compete directly with the other’s score. The Knights’ top five players on Coach Matt Brumbaugh’s unit (No. 1-No. 5), consisted of Brewer, Lauer, Tony Sotornik, William Drummond and Reed Petroski. The sixth slot varied among multiple players. Sotornik, who just finished his sophomore year, worked hard and showed a lot of improvement. “He stayed positive and really encouraged other players as well,” Brewer commented. Said Lauer, “This season, Tony really stepped up his game on the course and he grew a lot as a person. He matured greatly, and I’m glad to call him a friend.” Both co-captains said cracking jokes was a method team members used to cut the tension at matches. “A lot of the younger players got extremely nervous before they teed off,” said Brewer, 18, who will enter Boston College this fall. “Humor was a way to help them relax.” Brewer said his strength is his short game. “I’ve played matches where I only hit one green but still shoot only one or two over (36 is par for nine holes) because I get the ball up and down.” u

La Jolla and Bishop’s local preps vie in summer leagues By Ed Piper
“W
e’re going to be short and fast, like Marymount with Paul Westhead,” said Marlon Wells, The Bishop’s School girls basketball coach, of his team in the post-Imani Littleton era, beginning this summer. The CIF Player of the Year is moving on to her collegiate career at St. John’s University, so guard Destiny Littleton and her teammates will power the Lady Knights from here on. On the other side of town, La Jolla High boys basketball coach Paul Baranowski is using summer camp play to let his team coalesce as a unit. “We’re working on playing together,” the third-year coach said. He brings back guards Ladd Castellano and Reed Farley, and another starter, Owen Porter, with a new crop of players and former reserves. So far this offseason, La Jolla and Bishop’s have played in the Alliant International University Spring league, which continued through June. La Jolla enjoyed a trip to Baranowski’s roots in Arizona, playing a host of games in very few days against state division champions at more than one level. The trip helped bond players together emotionally, as well as hone their skills. Making up the Viking roster for the June 27-29 team camp at San Diego State University, besides Castellano, Porter, and Farley, were guards Zach Duffy, Gaynor Blackmon, Tony Coan and Daniel Hemming, and frontcourtmen Morgan Albers, Alex
Pitrofsky and Grant Miller. Coming back in July will be guard Eddie Parker, wing Max Scott, and center Mark Rawdin. Bishop’s went 24-1 during their recent spring and summer league involvement, behind the attack of an all-guard speedster lineup alongside Destiny Littleton that includes Alessandra and Karinne Aguirre, twins who as incoming sophomores have a season of high school basketball under their belts, and juniors Layla Cunningham and Malea Casillas. When asked what position different players fill, Coach Wells laughed, “They’re all guards.” That’s what the Lady Knights’ furious attack is going to be built on in the coming year. Support will come from some of the other Bishop’s returning players from last season’s roster, including sophomores Linette Pan, Caroline Edwards, and Anna Szymanski, and junior Mariah Furtek. Bishop’s won the Best of San Diego Tournament, went undefeated in the spring league at Alliant, and went 4-1 in the USD Team Camp June 27-29. The Lady Knights left for Louisville July 4 for the first annual Under Armour National Championships at the Kentucky Expo Center July 6-8, then Nashville July 9-14. Wells expressed a lot of excitement and enthusiasm with his team’s progress so far. “What will get us there (the level he is striving for) is better conditioning and improvement of individual players,” he said in his summer diagnosis. u

ill Boehm grew up in a Navy family, mostly on the eastern seaboard. On average, he changed schools every 1.5 years — “something like ‘The Great Santini,’ “ he joked. After studying architecture at Princeton University, he entered the Navy for a five-year service. Highlights included cruises to the Mediterranean and Caribbean, as well as a yearlong tour in Southeast Asia in 1967. On the G.I. Bill he returned to old habits, attending U.C. Berkeley, the Architecture Association in London, Bill Boehm and the University of Pennsylvania, where he received a Masters of Architecture degree. Since then, he has enjoyed an eclectic career practicing architecture, managing a large petroleum tank farm and developing old/historic properties. “I am waiting to retire,” he said. Boehm has served on several non-profit boards, including The Museum of Man, The House of Hospitality at Balboa Park, All Souls’ Vestry in Point Loma and The Gillispie School. He is currently president of the Riford/La Jolla Library. He and his wife, Louise, have three children and one granddaughter.
What brought you to La Jolla? Gillispie School. At the time, Louise taught at Palomar College and I worked downtown. We needed early childcare for our youngest, Lydia. After research and recommendations, we chose Gillispie. I did the dropping off on the way to work. We ended the insanity by moving to La Jolla; what a great idea! What would you improve in the area? I would implement the proposed plan by Jim Alcorn A.I.A. to alter/upgrade the block on Prospect between Girard and Herschel. The project is pedestrian friendly, softens the drop to Scripps Park, and encourages a connection to the park by the sea.

Nussbaum, born in Zimbabwe, Africa, made Solana Beach her home more than 25 years ago, and has become a significant part of the local art community. Since 2011, she’s been assembling a variety of popular and lesser-known artists for the SDBG exhibit, putting out a call for participants a year in advance.

Let Inga Tell You
Please stop rolling

La Jolla Cultural Partners
K, it scares even me. Over the years, as new phrases came into the vernacular, my kids would hear them at school, start saying them at home, and pretty soon even mom was using them. Well, most of them. But now, more and more phrases have come into common use, which annoy me beyond reason. I know: it’s the first step toward terminal curmudgeonliness. I fear I’m steps away from morphing from the kid-adoring neighbor lady to the one who rolls out onto her front porch in her walker and hurls epithets at the skate boarders. Language, of course, is always evolving. More than one high school kid, forced to read Shakespeare’s plays, has whined, “Why couldn’t he just write in English?” My kids might have been among them. It took 500 years for Bill’s work to require so much translation, but I’ll bet that it will take less than 50 for Early 21st Century English to sound just as foreign. New words are being introduced at warp speed. A single mention of a catchy new term on a TV sitcom or a celebrity’s tweet and it’s suddenly coming out of the mouths of millions. Portmanteaus — the blending of two words to create a new one with a different
meaning — are introduced daily, aided and abetted by the Internet. Some portmanteaus have become firmly entrenched in the English language like motel (motor + hotel), televangelist (television evangelist), pleather (plastic leather), blog (web log), brunch (breakfast + lunch) and frenemy (enemy disguised as a friend). New and often hilarious ones appear daily on Urban Dictionary, for example, harassenger: a passenger who is constantly harassing you about your driving skills. But some words and expressions I hear every day I just can’t get my ahead around. Here’s a few from “Irascible Inga’s Crotchety Guide to Language”: Pop: Oy. Oy again. When I hear someone say that a particular color of eye shadow makes her eyes pop or a certain piece of furniture makes the room pop, it makes ME pop, but not the same way. Apparently, there is nothing that cannot pop anymore. Hot mess: What happens when things fail to pop. Price point: What was wrong with plain old “price”? He gets me: Could you be more specific?
The new album dropped last week: From what height? Is it OK? Wouldn’t FedEx Ground have been a more sensible choice? Big girl panties: Definitely a contender for most over-used phrase of the year, as in “She needs to put on her big girl panties and deal with the situation.” Can we just leave underwear out of it? The visual is, well, never mind. When a door closes, a window opens: Only during a tornado. I have to take this (cell phone call): No, you really don’t! Grow our company: Is it a plant? Opens up about: Apparently the verb “talk” just doesn’t sell magazines anymore. Instead, celebrity interviewees are alleged to “open up” about their lives implying that they’ve chosen this particular interview with US magazine to divulge their previously undisclosed innermost thoughts. Actual celebrity quote: “I guess if I had more time, I’d start a vegetable garden.” Cover headline: “Jennifer opens up about the secret passion even her friends didn’t know about!” That’s how I roll: Please, please stop rolling. I’m all about ...: Evil cousin of “he gets me.”
Everything happens for a reason: Yes, but not the one you’re thinking. Meant to be comforting in situations of minor disappointment (“I didn’t get into Berkeley, but everything happens for a reason.”) Fails miserably when applied to mass casualty tragedies, unless, of course, it refers to people other than you. Like: Here, at least I know I have, like, lots of company. You did good: My high school English teacher would be rising out of her grave at an adjective being used as an adverb but my kids’ teachers in the La Jolla school system all said it. One of my sons sent me an article recently saying “you did good” is in such popular usage that it can be now considered ‘correct.’ The attached note read: “Mom: Sorry this had to happen in your lifetime.” I suppose if these are my worst complaints about the language, I shouldn’t complain. But I will anyway. And as for your skate boarders, could you keep it down during my naptime? u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light.

Gluten-free menu puts Curious Fork in the spotlight By Kelley Carlson ne of Del Mar’s newest eateries, The Curious Fork, aims to satisfy people’s increasing appetite for healthy, glutenfree fare. It’s accomplished through a threepronged approach: a quick-service cafe cooking classes and a culinary retail center. “We want to provide an approachable, engaging space for learning and really highlighting the importance and joy of the food we put into our bodies every day,” cofounder Barbara McQuiston said. “We are focused on producing excellent cuisine along with a fun learning experience and to be a community resource — whether it be how to cook seasonal ingredients picked up from their local farmers market or figuring out what gluten-free even means, we are here to help.” McQuiston (who is affected by celiac disease) and co-founder Kai Peyrefitte have worked hard to ensure that their dishes are above and beyond the tastes and textures of “typical” gluten-free food. They incorporate

n This week’s recipe:
The Curious Fork’s Salted Chocolate Chip Cookies local, organic ingredients into smoothies, salads, sandwiches, soups and small plates. “Across the board, food quality is of utmost importance,” Peyrefitte said. Morning offerings are light, consisting of

quiches and pastries such as the Blueberry Oat Bars, but there are plans to expand the menu, according to McQuiston. And the coffee is not just any average cup of joe: It’s the sought-after Blue Bottle brand, and according to the co-founders, The Curious Fork is the first in the area to serve it. Because of the brand’s guidelines and standards, it’s presented in pristine form, with milk that’s steamed to enhance the sugars and there’s no need for syrups. The number of food selections expands as the day continues. Patrons who want to work their taste buds will fare well with the Charcuterie Board. Among the highlights: creamy Humboldt Fog cheese with a thin layer of edible white ash; fennel salami from Tender Greens’ Pete Balistreri; razor-thin slices of prosciutto; smoky, deep-red discs of Spanish chorizo; house-made candied walnuts; robustly flavored whole-grain mustard; and tangy, julienned pickled onions. Pizza connoisseurs will find nearly a halfdozen pies from which to choose, including

one with a walnut basil pesto base and toppings of goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes and arugula. Sandwiches comprise a big portion of the menu, and the standout is the Smoked Salmon. The fish — from reputable Scottish company Loch Duart — is cured and smoked in-house, then placed on sourdough with a dill cream cheese spread, caper berries and pickled onions. The founders are especially proud of the gluten-free baguette, which took months to perfect so that it was on par or better than other loaves on the market. Pastry chef Sonja Knowles “ended up hitting a home run,” Peyrefitte said. McQuiston and Peyrefitte promote continuing the lifestyle outside of their eatery, teaching people how to buy and prepare foods through weekly classes, and selling cookware to achieve those results. “No matter what your preference, give us a try — we think you’ll be surprised in a good way,” McQuiston said. u

‘Stone’ fruits now in season
S
adly, summer’s stone fruit growing season is way too short, but oh so sweet! Did you know: n Plum trees are grown in every continent except Antarctica. n The peach has a poisonous pit containing hydrocyanic acid. n On average, there are 44 cherries to the pound. n California grows more than 95 percent of nectarines. n In China, apricots (called “moons of the faithful”) were believed to boost women’s fertility.
Fuzzy Wuzzy Take a big bite of this fuzzy, juicy quintessential fruit of summer and fill your mouth with pure ambrosia. A member of the rose family, consumption of peaches once known as the “Persian apple,” originated in China over 2,000 years ago and eventually the fruit found its way to America via Spanish explorers. With more than 700 varieties, they’re divided into clingstone and freestone by the ease at which the flesh separates from the pit. Either white (low acid) or yellow, this hard-stoned fruit has a motherlode of carotenes, potassium, flavonoids, lycopene and lutein. This combo of phytochemicals has been found to be mighty warriors against everything from prostate cancer to heart disease. Stave these off with a warm spinach and grilled peach salad, a crispy peach and arugula pizza, curried salmon with peach chutney, gingered peach cobbler — or eat them chilled in hand for an energy-boosting snack. The Hairless Breed It is a misconception that the glabrousskinned nectarine is a hybrid cross between a peach and a plum. Rather, the nectarine developed from a peach by a natural mutation, becoming a recessive allele with only a single gene differentiation that makes them smooth, while their sibling is fuzzy. Some peach trees bear nectarines, while
nectarine trees might also bear peach fruits.
A Plum Job More diverse than their stone fruit relatives plums come in a variety of colors, shapes, sizes and flavors. The most popular are the larger, juicier Japanese variety along with the denser, drier European ones with mostly yellow or reddish flesh and skin hues ranging from ruby to blackish red. A high-fiber powerhouse, plums are loaded with anti-inflammatory properties and antioxidants to ward off cellular damage and assorted cancers, Vitamin A and lutein for ocular health, iron to pump up red blood cell production, and a slew of B’s to put the skids on stress. Whip up a puffy, gooey plum clafouti, a sweet and savory plum sauce for dipping and dunking, a Mediterranean chicken dish with green olives and prunes, or eat them crisp and cold from the fridge. Bowl of Bings These ruby beauties are members of the Rosaceae family and distant cousins to the peach, apricot, plum and almond with more than 1,000 varieties cultivated in 20 countries worldwide. Cherries fall into two sub-categories — sweet and sour. Just a handful of varieties are familiar to cherryphiles, including the sweet Bing, Tulare, Rainier and the Royal Ann, which morphs into the maraschino, while the tart types include the Nanking and Evans. As healthful as they are scrumptious, these super fruits are packed with immuneboosting antioxidants, a Herculean flavonoid called quercetin to hamper heart risk factors, along with anthocyanins that have been shown to reduce arthritic joint and gout pain as they block inflammatory enzymes. Cherries are also an excellent source of boron to dial up bone health and melatonin to stabilize the body’s circadian sleep patterns and alleviate jet lag. Toss some sweet frozen ones into smoothies or lemonades. Bake them fresh in pies, cobblers or concoct a glaze for a cheesecake topping. u — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com TGDM_4483_Bijou_5x12_AD-.indd 2

Let’s Review Diana Saenger
‘Ether Dome’ takes the lid off story of anesthesia
T
he traumatic experience behind performing amputations, tumor removals and vasectomies without anesthesia is immediately intriguing when Playhouse patrons view the incredible set design by James Youmans, representing the real ether dome at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1886. Below a well-lit dome, images of these crude medical procedures are projected on the wall. The question of who really discovered pain medicines such as ether, chloroform, nitrous oxide and others, intrigues throughout the drama, aided by “Ether Dome’s” tremendous cast. Dr. Horace Wells (Michael Bakkensen) is a dentist, who is disturbed by the pain he causes his patients. He’s a fanatic about his office protocol, even telling his helpers, “There’s no running in front of patients” as he doesn’t want them all hyped up. Wells and other surgeons at the time are all experimenting with different drugs. His partner and former student, William Morton (Tom Patterson), has been making his rounds and has discovered that laughing gas — nitrous oxide — not only makes people laugh, but puts them into a state of suspension in which they
momentarily feel less pain. Morton is anxious to worm his way into a group of renowned physicians led by Dr. John Collins Warren (Richmond Hoxie). Dr. Charles Jackson (William Youmans) is a chemist and former student of Warren’s who does not like Morton and thinks he’s a risk. He discourages Warren from listening or allowing this anxietydriven student to help with surgeries. Warren, however, is intrigued by the possibilities of relieving pain that Morton seems to be able to deliver. It’s an interesting tale about historical events fictionalized around a host of characters who attempt to work with each other, but at the same time outdo each other with claims each new drug discovery is his alone. There’s marital drama, physicians trying drugs on themselves that don’t end well, threats between Harvard and Boston doctors, a hint of politics and even religion with comments like, “We can’t live without God, but God can’t live without us.” Bakkensen expertly performs several of the arcs in Wells’ life, including sanity and insanity, his time as an artist in Paris and total breakdown. Patterson is equally

Nate and Ralyn Wolfstein, whose Sculpture Park graces the campus of Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla From Botanic Garden, B1 has room for a few extra-regional ones: three this year, from Seattle, New York and Los Angeles, were among the 34 chosen. In all, there are 47 works on display. The garden itself is a beauty, boasting 37 acres filled with almost 4,000 types of plants from around the world. The sculptures, placed in appropriate settings throughout the garden, provide an added feast for the eyes. At a June 29 preview of the exhibit, most of the artists were present, and happy to pose with their pieces, which will be on view through April 2015. A “Sculpture in the Garden” map, available at the entrance, makes self-guided tours easy, and a plaque near each piece gives additional information. Summertime Special: If you come on a Thursday afternoon, you can stay for one of the Family Fun Nights, special programs of music and entertainment, 4:30-8 p.m. through Aug. 28. u

Good news for the future of Solar Last April, snipers opened fire at an electrical power station near San Jose, CA and knocked out 17 huge transformers that funnel power to Silicon Valley. To avoid a blackout, power was rerouted to various plants in Silicon Valley that, consequently, had to produce more electricity to compensate. This lasted for 27 days. If solar
battery systems had been installed at the San Jose power station, it certainly would have saved California a lot of electricity. The attack was carried out with military precision, they left no clues, and have a $250,000 reward for information leading to prosecution. Solar battery systems are designed to store energy if there’s an outage. It sounds efficient and harmless enough, but utilities are afraid people will charge batteries with cheap nighttime power and offset expensive daytime purchases, which are more profitable for the utility. It wasn’t until May 15 of this year that the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) finally approved a decision to ease the restrictions on solar battery projects and approve hundreds of applications that have been stalled for up to two years. Here’s the problem with the utility companies’
argument: solar battery systems aren’t designed to arbitrage energy back onto the grid. They are designed to hold the batteries in reserve for a power outage. They only discharge when the grid goes down. It doesn’t even make sense to export the battery stored solar energy for net energy metering (NEM) credits because the cost of wearing down the battery is much more valuable than NEM credits. But, finally, on May 15, 2014, the CPUC unanimously approved a decision that makes energy storage systems exempt from interconnection application fees, supplemental review fees, costs for distribution upgrades, and standby charges when interconnecting under the current NEM tariffs, provided they meet the following criteria: they are paired with NEMeligible generation facilities and they qualify under the RPS Guidebook as an “addition or
enhancement” to NEM-eligible systems. The decision also places limitations on the size of the battery storage systems and includes metering requirements to protect the NEM program. Eventually, being able to marshal the output of thousands of battery systems will help the stability of the grid and avoid line losses. The CPUC’s decision to make battery-backed solar power more economically viable for homeowners certainly seems like a step in the right direction to help California reach its goal of becoming the country’s leader in energy storage. For over thirteen years, our goal at Home Energy Systems has been to help California reach their green energy goals by helping our customers become energy self-sufficient.

Let’s Review Diana Saenger
Two stories of romance play out in musical
T
he first part of the musical comedy “Romance, Romance,” at North Coast Rep, opens on the bygone era of 1900 Vienna where Alfred (Lance Arthur Smith) and Lars (Jeffrey Scott Parsons) have their eyes on the lovely Josefine (Melissa Wolfklain) and Lina (Jill Townsend). The women and men take to the stage dancing merrily — only their smiles are bigger than the dance steps, choreographed by Jill Gorrie. Directed with much aplomb by Rick Simas, the audience sees that these two couples are extremely happy … or are they? Alfred, an impassive aristocrat, is looking for love, but wants to make sure the sweetheart he finds is more interested in him than his money, and that’s why he’s disguised as a poor poet. Josefine seems the perfect match; she’s a down-and-out seamstress who has just ended a relationship. They both have a surprise coming up. Wonderful tunes like “It’s Not Too Late,” “I’ll Always Remember the Song,” “A Rustic Country Inn” and “The Night It Had to End,” help spell out the drama and fun experienced by these two couples, who discover romance in their own unique ways.
After these characters dance off the stage, there’s a short intermission and patrons return to see an entirely different set on the stage. The second part, “Summer Share,” takes place in the Hamptons in modern times, where two couples in their 30s have decided to share a summer cottage. They talk about their freedom to relax and enjoy each other’s company, have fun and not worry about their children. But it’s not long before Sam (married to Barb) and Monica (married to Lenny) begin to spend more time together without their spouses. They try to make silly conversation to cover up what’s really happening — they are sexually attracted to each other. They consider in the middle of the night leaving together to have an affair. The second act also features some wonderful musical numbers, “So Glad I Married Her,” “Small Craft Warnings,” How Did I End Up Here?” “Words He Doesn’t Say” and “Moonlight Passing Through a Window.” The lyrics by Barry Harman and music by Keith Herrmann reveal the story’s plot twists.
Lance Arthur Smith, Melissa Wolfklain, Jill Townsend and Jeffrey Scott Parsons ham it up in North Coast Repertory Theatre’s comedy, ‘Romance, Romance.’ Aaron Rumley As Sam and Monica sit on the couch questioning whether they will or will not get together, their spouses step out from the sides of the stage and stand behind them listening. This was a little confusing. Are they really there in the summer getaway or is this a vision? I wondered if they were going to jump out and make a scene, but eventually, they just stepped back and disappeared, leaving me unsure what that was about.) But there’s no doubt “Romance, Romance”
is an entertaining production from beginning to end. The scenic design by Marty Burnett fits the story and represents the different eras very well. The show was initially staged off-off-Broadway in 1987. u n IF YOU GO: “Romance, Romance” plays through Aug. 3 at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach.
