‘Brain/Cloud (with Seascape and Palm Tree)’ graces the side of building at 1250 Prospect St.
— John Baldessari, Artist
BY KATHY DAY kday@lajollalight.com John Baldessari has made another indelible mark on La Jolla with the newest installation of the La Jolla Community Foundation’s murals program. This time the world-renowned artist’s work — also featured in UCSD’s Stuart Collection — can be
seen on the back wall of the building at 1250 Prospect St. Called “Brain/Cloud (with Seascape and Palm Tree),” the creation measures 36 feet, 8 inches by 40 feet. The artist explained the newest addition to the La Jolla art scene this way: “A brain can look like a cloud if you manipulate it in the right way. We see things in clouds.
It looks like it’s hovering almost from outer space. I like banal images and I can’t think of anything more banal than a palm tree and an ocean.” The mural was unfurled on Sept. 29 and the final touches of stretching it and attaching it continued

Next: Turning Coast walkway ideas into a design
■ LJHS tennis
team has high expectations A18
BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com Architect Jim Neri’s next project will be a challenge: Synthesize the ideas suggested at a workshop on beautifying the area above the Children’s Pool into a design plan for review by La Jolla Parks & Beaches Inc. There’s little disagreement there is great need — and much to do — to improve the Coast Boulevard walkway. But how it could and should be changed is something all 36 participants at Saturday’s workshop had a different take on. “It’s not parkland — it’s a city street,” said Neri, who
led the gathering in the Friendship Room at 939 Coast Blvd. And, he added, there is at least one constraint being imposed on redoing the walkway. “The city is requiring us to provide a guard rail in the plaza on the seawall overlooking the Casa Beach as a safety measure,” he said, adding that whatever aesthetic improvements are added near the lifeguard tower would be privately funded and likely cost $100,000 or more.

Herschel building seals the deal for Malarkey venture BY KATHY DAY kday@lajollalight.com If Brian Malarkey and James Brennan hadn’t found just the right building, their new restaurant Herringbone might not be coming to La Jolla, the Top Chef finalist and owner of two other area restaurants, said recently. “That beautiful building became available” and that was it, Malarkey said of the 1930’s Brian era structure at 7837 Malarkey Herschel Ave. “It has a story.

Splash Bash set for Oct. 16 By Phil Dailey phildailey@lajollalight.com the coggan Family Aquatic complex will celebrate nine years of operation on Oct. 16 with their 10th annual Splash bash, an event that helps keep the pool afloat and offset costs. the pool, which was opened Oct. 1 2002, relies heavily on the annual event to keep the facility up and running, according to randy Franke, who is the aquatic director there. “this is a private pool run for the benefit of the high school and the La Jolla community,” Franke said. “It’s a unique situation where you have a 50-meter private swimming pool that’s on school district property.” Franke said as many as 1,000 people use the pool on a daily basis. the fundraising event begins at noon and will include food, live music, a swim-a-thon and giveaways. “As far as a fundraiser, this is it for us and it’s a great day for the community,” Franke added. “For five bucks, it’s the best deal in town.” With the recent closure of the Mission beach Plunge, the La Jolla pool is getting some more traffic in its pool. “We have definitely got more users,” Franke said. “the people who love to swim, they’re going to find a place to swim. Usually that is dictated by how convenient that is.” Larry Sanders, a San Diego city lifeguard who lives in University city, said the coggan Pool becomes an even more important part of the community because the Mission beach pool is closed.
If you go ■ What: 10th annual Splash Bash ■ When: noon to 4 p.m. Oct. 16 ■ Where: Coggan Family Aquatic Center, located at Nautilus and Fay ■ Tickets: $5 for adults and children ■ Contact: 858.456.0945 or www.cfaquatics.org
“Without the Plunge being available, that pool is even more important for us,” Sanders said. “I know as a lifeguard we get a membership there so we can workout and stay fit for our job. It’s a great pool.” Last year, the pool had to spend more than $20,000 on repairs, which included replacing drain covers per a new california state law. “I think it’s important to note that the pool doesn’t just run by itself,” Sanders said. “there is a little profit that needs to be made and I think Splash bash can bring people to the pool and bring in extra funds to keep that pool up and running. “It’s such a benefit to the community that I don’t think people realize what a blessing it is to have a pool in their community and by supporting that it provides a lot of different services to a lot of different people.”

Spiny lobster season begins in local waters Organizers
cancel La Jolla Pet Parade
this ‘berried’ female is carrying hundreds of thousands of eggs.
Natural La Jolla
Jeremy W Smith PhotoS
By Kelly Stewart
On Oct. 1 at midnight, the season for california spiny lobster began for recreational fishers. (The commercial season began Oct. 5). Our nearshore waters are now dotted with bobbing buoys while eerie underwater lights at night are carried by scuba divers out searching for their prized “bugs.” each morning, boats loaded down with lobster pots check their traps and collect the much-sought-after crustaceans. The california spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus), common from Point conception to Magdalena bay in baja Mexico, is named for its spine-covered carapace (shell) and two long spiky antennae, which it rubs to-
gether to make a loud noise, deterring predators. It lacks the giant claws that make the iconic Maine lobster so familiar. besides being a favorite dinner for humans, spiny lobsters are eaten by many fish such as horned sharks, cabezon and sea bass. It is also an important predator in the kelp beds and rocky habitats of central and Southern california. Hiding under rock ledges during the day, spiny lobsters emerge to forage at night on sea urchins, mussels and worms, and scavenge on whatever else they may come across on the sea floor. Without lobster keeping the sea urchin population in check, urchins could seriously dam-
age our diverse kelp forests. From May through June, females carry developing egg bundles on the underside of their tail. In this state, they are said to be “berried” and they will carry the egg bundle for 10 weeks, finally releasing the hatched larvae into the sea. For six to nine months the larvae will drift in the currents, eventually transforming into a minilobster. Thought to live for 50 years or more, lobsters are fairly slow to mature and most that are captured at legal size are between 7 and 11 years old. — Kelly Stewart, Ph.D. is a postdoc with NOAA’s Southwest Fisheries Science Center. Contact her at NaturalLaJolla@gmail.com.
this baby lobster may take three to six years to mature if it’s a male, or five to 11 years if it’s a female.
During the day, lobsters hide out together under rocks and in crevices avoiding predators.
The annual La Jolla Pet Parade & Festival, which netted about $12,000 in 2010 in a surf-themed event to support the animal-welfare nonprofit Spay Neuter Action Project (SNAP), is a no-go this year. “At the last minute we had to postpone it to next year,” said La Jolla bookstore owner Nancy Warwick, an event originator. Held the last two years in May, the fest featured a pet parade around the Village, a festival with vendor booths, an adoption fair and numerous petjudging contests. The event had been rescheduled for Halloween this year and its venue was changed to the La Jolla rec center from the corner of Silverado Street and Herschel Avenue, where it was held the first two years. but an illness among the organizing group prompted the change. “It will definitely continue,” said Warwick of the event’s future. “We’re going to do a Halloween version with the new venue next year.” Warwick said those interested in getting involved in planning next year’s pet fest can e-mail nancywarwick@yahoo.com.

T O D A Y by Janet Douglas
Homes get smaller, more energy efficient These two features are what many buyers are seeking today. The average size of a new single family home in 2010 was 2,377 square feet, down from 2,438 sq ft in 2009 and down from the peak of 2,520 sq ft in 2007, according to the US Census Bureau data. The trend will continue for a while according to several builders with the home size projected for 2015 to be 2,150 sq ft with fewer bathrooms and smaller garages. It is hard to believe home sizes will continue to decline in size to 1970 levels of 1,500 sq ft but for the immediate future, smaller sizes are here to stay. The US population was 310 million as of April 2010. That is expected to rise to 322 million in 2015 and continue to climb to 422 million by 2050. The population is also getting older and more diverse. In 2010, 25 % of the population was over the age of 55. That figure is expected to grow to 31% by 2050. The rising segment of older home owners will not want to care for huge spaces or multi levels. We also have the Generation "Y" buyers who are very energy conscious. People are coming to realize, "Let's buy what we need".

Cornell program a worthwhile venture By Erica EisEn Editor’s note: Erica, a La Jolla High senior, attended a six-week summer program called Telluride Association Summer Program. Here’s what she has to say about the program. It was a hot day in June as I trundled my overstuffed suitcase across Cornell’s tranquil campus and up the lawn of the large brick dormitory where I would be staying for the next six weeks. As I got nearer, the people who had already arrived and moved in swarmed around me, introducing themselves and offering to help me with my bags. They came from all across the world and, despite the vast differences in culture and experience, we were all united by one key feature: the intellectual passion that had led us all to apply to and be accepted for the Telluride Association Summer Program. TASP is a summer program for juniors who are thoughtful, intellectual and community-oriented. Both TASP and TASS, the companion program for sophomores, are free, and the Telluride Association is fully willing to pay for travel and to give a stipend if an accepted student would otherwise be working. The rigorous application process includes four essays and an in-depth interview — the most thought-provoking
and intense one I had every had. And the work didn’t stop when I got my acceptance letter: At TASP, we all participated in one of two seminars, which lasted three hours each day (mine was on intergenerational justice) and asked for around 55 pages of reading each night. We were also asked to write essays, and each of us had to prepare a 20-minute speech to give to the group. These ranged from such topics as the war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, modern art and the nature of philosophy. In addition, almost everything was democratically decided upon, so every Tuesday night there was a lengthy parliamentary-style house meeting over how to spend our generous budget and what events we would organize. Yet despite the mammoth amount of work required, I can truly say that TASP was the best experience I have ever had, and I highly recommend any interested sophomores and juniors reading this to look into either TASP or TASS. After we’d finished the day’s work, my fellow TASPers and I would stay up all night talking, playing games and taking midnight walks around Ithaca. The emphasis placed on community meant that in the six weeks I spent there I made lifelong friends and got

to know people there better than most of the people I’ve been going to school with all my life. It is an experience that I will treasure my entire life long, and I hope that by
writing this I give the same opportunity to another loftyminded La Jolla junior as well. For information go to www. tellurideassociation.org/.

From Nobel, A1 Genetics of Host Defense at the Ut Southwestern Medical center. Hoffmann is research director of the French National center for Scientific research and Steinman, who died on Friday, was director of the center for Immunology and Immune Diseases at rockefeller University in New York. A press release on the Prize committee’s website on Monday said it was reviewing the rules since the prize cannot be awarded posthumously. reuters reported that the panel learned of Steinman’s death two hours after the prize announcement. In an interview with Adam Smith, editorial director of Nobel Media, beutler said he was in bed when he learned he had won the Nobel Prize. “I happened to wake up in the middle of the night,” he said. “I looked over at my cell phone and I noticed that I had a new email message. And, I squinted at it and I saw that the title line was ‘Nobel Prize’, so I thought I should give close attention to that. And, I opened it and it was from Goran Hansson, and it said that I had won the Nobel Prize, and so I was thrilled. And, I was a little disbelieving and I went downstairs and looked at my laptop, and I couldn’t get into the Nobel site for quite a while because it was all packed. So, I went to google
news and in a few minutes I saw my name there and so I knew it was real.” On the website www.nobelprize. org, the press release announcing the awards said this year’s winners “have revolutionized our understanding of the immune system by discovering key principles for its activation. .... bruce beutler and Jules Hoffmann discovered receptor proteins that can recognize such microorganisms and activate innate immunity, the first step in the body’s immune response. ralph Steinman discovered the dendritic cells of the immune system and their unique capacity to activate and regulate adaptive immunity, the later stage of the immune response during which microorganisms are cleared from the body. beutler told Nobel Media that the “most hopeful” applications of their discoveries “lie in the realm of inflammatory and auto-immune disease because I believe now, as I believed long ago, that inflammation is something that evolved to cope with infection. And when we speak of sterile inflammatory diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis, and autoimmune diseases like lupus, probably some of the same pathways are utilized. And, it may very well be that by blocking tLr signalling we’ll have very specific therapies for those kinds of diseases.”

Adagio-Ballet Series
Thursday, October 6th Artist Bio
John Asaro’s recent paintings capture the life force behind dance, his main focus of the series 100 Dancers. With brilliant fauve colors, his admiration for dancers and their dedication is reflected in his own dedication to capturing the lines and forms of the graceful ballerinas. He follows them from classroom to stage in various poses of relaxation, performance, contemplation, and even the pain that comes with such passion. On stage or in the classroom, the costumes and lighting are constantly shifting, creating delicate tension between the artists and their environment. Always listening to the orchestral arrangements as he paints, Asaro’s inspired works are imbued with music. He occasionally finds himself of the same ilk, and dances around his studio, paintbrush in hand with his patient cat as a partner. It’s easy to give yourself up to the captivating essence of dance; John Asaro certainly has.
Once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire John Asaro Paintings. Additional Paintings have been added to the exhibition.

Police still working case of slain cabbie City News serviCe San Diego police homicide detectives are continuing their investigation into the death of a 68-year-old cab driver shot on a La Jolla sidewalk on Sept. 28. the body was found in the 8600 block of La Jolla Scenic Drive, across the street from the Adat Yeshurun synagogue, said San Diego police Officer David Stafford. An area resident reported hearing gunfire about 11:35 p.m. Wednesday and a patrol officer who went to investigate found the body, said San Diego police homicide Lt. Kevin rooney. the victim has been identified as Mir Sadat Sahou, 68. He was a self-employed driver, according to the U-t, which reported
“he was a prominent figure in the political and financial world in Afghanistan and a well-known television show host there before moving to the United States as a refugee nearly 20 years ago.” After the shooting rooney reported witnesses saw the cab pull to the west curb and two males step out. “there was an exchange of words and a struggle, followed by several gunshots” the release stated. the suspect fled northbound in the cab that was found abandoned near La Jolla cove on Sept. 29. Anyone with information about this case is encouraged to call the Homicide Unit at (619) 531-2293 or crime Stoppers at (888) 580-8477.

Bike riders get ‘Moving’
bout 25 people turned out for the recent Moving Planet La Jolla bike ride organized by La Jolla High School student ryan Mann. Participants included representatives from the school’s AP environmental Science classes, treehuggers club, ASb, LJHS Interact and people who saw the event on the Moving Planet website. ryan said that while the larger event was intended to focus on climate change, “the La Jolla event was aimed more narrowly at getting more people to bike because more people biking means less pollution, less traffic congestion, and more people exercising and having fun.”
Research Report By LyNNe FriedmaNN biologists at UcSD have identified more than 70 genes that play a role in regenerating nerves after injury, providing biomedical researchers with a set of ge-
netic leads that one day may result in therapies to repair spinal cord injuries and other common kinds of nerve damage such as stroke. the work involved a twoyear investigation of 654 genes suspected to be involved in regulating the growth of axons — the thread-like extensions of nerve cells that transmit electrical impulses to other nerve cells. From this largescale genetic screen, 70 genes were identified that promote axon growth after injury and six more genes

that repress the re-growth of axons. Of particular interest to the biologists are the six genes that appear to repress the growth of axons; because identifying and eliminating the inhibiting factors to the re-growth of axons could be just as essential as the biochemical pathways that promote axon regrowth in repairing spinal cord injuries and other kinds of nerve damage. the research was a collaborative effort with researchers from the University of Oregon. Findings appear in
the journal Neuron. News release at http://bit.ly/qmlq6n. Sequencing microrganisms Scientists from UcSD, the J. craig Venter Institute and Illumina Inc. have developed a new method to sequence and analyze the genomes of thousands of bacteria species previously beyond scientists’ reach, from microorganisms that produce antibiotics and biofuels to microbes living in the human body. n For complete column, go to www.lajollalight.com

The bonair residents have always supported The Riford Center’s mission to serve the adult community and we are pleased that they are now going to provide for ADA access at its main entrance so that “abled” and “disabled” can all enter at the same location. Lest they forget, they needed to be persuaded by the neighbors when they originally wanted to move the main entrance to bonair Street, a quiet residential street, and then by the neighbors and other La Jolla community members who took up the cause, but do not live in the neighborhood, to provide its federally funded ADA access at the main entrance on La Jolla boulevard. Since they already have a federally funded ADA approved existing rear entrance off bonair Street the contention that they still need a second ADA entrance on bonair Street during construction is to be seriously questioned. David Raphael Singer Bonair Street reSident …. What’s amazing is that area neighbors were never notified of any of these drastic changes: They found out from the grapevine. No neighborly informational sharing from the Riford board, no publicity, no public hearings. Incredibly, no official notice from Councilmember Sherri Lightner’s office, which provided the $200,000 HUD-funded Community Development block Grant to the Riford Center board for the overhaul. Lightner claims notice wasn’t required, but it would have been a good idea. This stealth approach is ironic because you’d expect Councilmember Lightner to be unusually sensitive to community concerns of this sort, since she herself worked tirelessly for years to prevent establishment of a UCSD Hillel Center on the edge of a residential neighborhood in her part of town over in the Shores. Protecting neighbors in the Shores may be different from protecting neighbors at WindanSea, but it’s bad politics, especially in an election year. Frances O’Neill Zimmerman La JoLLa reSident
they have to work on it off and on because they also have other projects. Hopefully, he added, it will be done by the end of October. For information on the city’s brush management programs go to http:// tinyurl.com/5uqcltc. To report brush abatement problems call the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department’s brush and Weed Hotline at (619) 533-4444.

…. We are also incredulous that the Riford board continues to insist on the need for a new ‘temporary” entrance on bonair Street. Construction of a new ‘temporary’ entrance on bonair Street is unnecessary and will have a lasting negative impact on the surrounding residential street. The Riford Center already has two entrances from the east side of the building — the existing wheelchair-accessible entrance and the newly constructed entrance to the media/art room. If the board of Friends of the Riford Center continues to insist on a bonair Street entrance, we call on the La Jolla Community Planning Organization to protect the quiet, residential character of our neighborhood and to deny the Riford Center’s request. Hector Jimenez and Grace Zimmerman Dora Acosta and Juan Carlos Herguera Bonair Street reSidentS … It is a waste of taxpayer money to create a new entrance on bonair Street. Furthermore, this new entrance has the potential to remain in operation once construction is completed, leading to greater congestion of both pedestrians and cars in the quiet bonair Street residential neighborhood — a neighborhood that has been my family’s home for over 60 years. I urge the Friends of the Riford Center board and all La Jolla and San Diego officials and agencies involved to revise the renovation plans to include only the existing front entrance and no new entrance at the side on bonair Street. Janet C. Harris Bonair Street reSident … And yet, they are still trying, despite the obstacles, cost and neighborhood opposition, to put an additonal access on the quiet residential street side of the building. The neighborhood has legitimate concerns that because the majority of the patrons park on bonair Street that any ingress on this side will become a de facto entrance. (Who would walk by one entrance to go to another?) They are also concerned about commercial creep and future use of the building if the city should perhaps ever sell it and the Riford board — which seems to be evolving away from seniors — should purchase it and use it for some alternate use. Perhaps there’s some other underlying motive? Liana Bowdler Bonair Street reSident

nearsourcing — Look near first! By Steve Hoey Associate Director, Business Creation and Development CONNECT San Diego is home to more than 5,000 outsourcing companies, including specialists in prototyping, R&D, contract research organizations (CROs), contract manufacturing and more. This creates an opportunity for San Diego’s early-stage and growth companies to access this local talent instead of sourcing out of the area or country. Nearsourcing can mean ease of collaboration, less cost and faster time to market for these companies. CONNECT’s Nearsourcing Roundtable focuses on matching San Diego companies in need of outsourcing with our region’s local outsourcing cluster, and to engage San Diego’s nearsourcing community. The purpose of the program is to educate our region’s entrepreneurs and emerging businesses on the benefits of contracting with local manufacturers, including reduced time to market, increased innovation and decreased costs; and match San Diego companies in need of outsourcing with San Diego outsourcing companies and ensure that business is not off-shored unless necessary. The program includes three components: n Regularly-scheduled educational workshops and conferences that teach our entrepreneurial community about the benefits of nearsourcing; n An interactive database that contains

Public beach needs public access A story was recently published in the La Jolla Light (Local Beach Access Issue Heads Back to Court: Sept. 14). This story presents the views of La Jolla resident, Ure Kretowicz. His views are self-serving and inaccurate. As a sophisticated businessman, he knew when he bought his property that there was a public access requirement to the pocket beach below. The California Coastal Act requires public access to a public beach. Kretowicz has converted this beach to his own private use by gating off the trail. Further, Mr. Kretowicz has built many additions to his home on public land with-
out doing the appropriate analysis and obtaining the proper coastal development permits. Coastal staff tried to craft a compromise that would have given Mr. Kretowicz and his family another 45 years of private use. At a recent Coastal Commission meeting, the commissioners who are the decision-makers, not local staff, unanimously and vigorously rejected that compromise and one went so far as to say “over my dead body.” No one changed their minds and it was Kretowicz that refused to accept the decision to return public land to the public. Instead, he did what many rich people do. He sued, triggering a countersuit from the Coastal Commision for his non-permitted additions that encroached on public land. The coast belongs to all Californians, not just those who can afford
to buy mansions on the beach. Ian Trowbridge and Graham Forbes San Diego reSiDentS

Linda Joslin 1944 – 2011
We are mourning the loss of a legend, Linda Joslin, a La Jolla fine jewelry designer. Linda designed one-of-a-kind pieces for many in her La Jolla studio for over 35 years. People from all over would come to have a “Linda Joslin” design. Her style was unique and truly captured the essence of each client. People would often refer to her pieces as, “Is that a Linda Joslin?” She had an innate sense of exactly what each client wanted and designed it seamlessly as one watched the perfect piece created in front of their eyes with a “it’s perfect, I love it”. She was known for taking old treasured pieces and recreating them as to keep the sentiment and legacy intact. She loved to bring a new innovative look and feel to each piece making it more beautiful than imagined. Linda was born in Riverside and came to La Jolla to start her career in jewelry design in the early 80’s. She worked her way into the hearts of many
and her generosity through donations to many charities was endless. Linda loved spending time with her children and grandchildren and having family gatherings. She enjoyed the outdoors, especially the beach and nature. She was a very private person but, her heart was full of love. She lost her battle with cancer but, stayed strong and resilient until the end. She is survived by her three children, Danny, Nicole and Damon, as well as five grandchildren. We shall miss this most unique and amazing woman, there will never be another Linda Joslin! In lieu of flowers, the family requests a donation be made to San Diego Hospice.

BUSINESS
www.lajollalight.com
SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS residents of La Jolla may soon be hearing a lot less of some familiar expressions at social gatherings, noisy restaurants or business meetings: “Pardon me?” “can you repeat that?” “I’m sorry — I didn’t hear what you said.” Kelly Scoggins of A1 Hearing centers in La Jolla was recently introduced to a new hearing device that is specifically designed to Kelly address the Scoggins needs and preferences of people new to hearing instruments. results of a recently released international study conducted at two universities, towson University in Maryland and the Hörzentrum in Oldenburg, Germa-
ny, show that new Oticon Intiga triggers immediate acceptance by people new to hearing instruments. “New Oticon Intiga delivers immediate and obvious benefits to first-time users,” says Kelly. “the advanced technology combined with Intiga’s sleek ergonomic design and miniature size can motivate people with hearing loss to take action now to improve their quality of life.” “this challenges the commonly held myth that it takes time to get used to hearing aids,” says Kelly. “With Intiga, I am finding people who were reluctant to try hearing aids not only accepting their new hearing solutions immediately but also seeing themselves as long-term users of amplification.” In addition to quality of life benefits, Intiga also appeals to the almost univer-
sal desire for a hearing instrument with discreet size and style. Intiga’s small, sleek ergonomic design hides easily behind the ear and is comfortable to wear throughout the day. the fully automatic technology also means there are no buttons to adjust. built-in wireless connectivity allows Intiga to connect wirelessly to cell phones, becoming a virtual hands-free headset. With addition of the Oticon connectLine system, audio from televisions and landline phones can be streamed directly to the hearing instruments. “I always encourage people to consider a trial of new hearing instruments,” adds Kelly. For more information about the new Intiga contact Kelly at (858) 454-4600 or visit www.a1hearing. com.
Girard Gourmet always a hit Girard Gourmet puts lots of “home” in everything served at the La Jolla eatery. “We call it, ‘From our garden to your plate,’ ” said Francois Goedhuys about the wholesome and very personal style of quality food and good humor he and wife Diana have served for 24 years at their 7837 Girard Ave. establishment. the restaurant prides itself on the organically grown produce coming from the couple’s gardens in Julian and La Jolla that recycle materials making the farming and retail aspects of the business mutually supportive. Francois said they have changed with the times. “We started out more as a bakery, but now we’re using more and more of what we grow in our own cooking,” said the belgian-born baker. Now, he added, the emphasis is more on the freshness and naturalness of the food. One example is the 40 or
Diana and Francois Goedhuys with a freshbaked pie. Dave Schwab photo 50 fresh salads made daily at Girard Gourmet topped off with Francois’s yummy homemade dressings. Girard Gourmet is also more involved now with catering. “We do a tremendous amount of business lunches and breakfasts,” said Diana. catering accounts for about 25 percent to 30 percent of the business, including lunches daily for 150 students at the San Diego French American School on Mt. Sole-
dad, Diana said. they also serve numerous La Jolla churches and institutions. What Diana likes best is being part of the community and giving back “in any way that we can showing appreciation for La Jollans’ supporting local businesses and what a difference that makes to the life of the community.” Francois has a welldeserved reputation for the distinctive designer cookies he makes for special occasions. “After 24 years, the hobby has turned into a speciality,” he said. What he likes best is “being in charge of production,” he added as he served up another of his specialties, a strawberry-rhubarb pie right out of the oven. A restaurant remodel has added a spacious, easily accessible bathroom for the comfort of patrons. call Girard Gourmet at (858) 454-3321 or visit www. girardgourmet.com.

Workshop participants posted ideas on a board. Courtesy From WalkWay, a1 Now is the appropriate time to link the two related but completely separate projects — Children’s Pool Lifeguard Tower replacement and Coast Boulevard walkway upgrades— since planning to replace the tower is already underway. Jihad Sleiman, project manager with the city’s Engineering & Capital Projects Department, said at the workshop it would take two to three weeks to demolish the old Children’s Pool lifeguard tower and five to seven months to build the new one. Besides the 188-squarefoot tower itself, the project calls for new lower-level public restrooms, support facilities for the lifeguards and refurbishing the 766-squarefoot plaza in front of the tower and the adjoining sidewalk. Sleiman said the
estimated $3.4 million cost of the entire project is coming from city deferred maintenance funds. The city portion of walkway redevelopment would only include the existing footprint of the tower site now temporarily fenced off, not the remainder of the walkway out to the green gazebo. Among ideas voiced during the walkway beautification meeting: Jim Walker thought people would appreciate the spot more if it could be made more “parklike” and Patrick Ahern, chair of Parks and Beaches Inc. which hosted the workshop, said it’s important to treat the site with historical “respect” and maintain its existing “fabric.” Realtor Ed Mracek and his group — one of several tackling the assignment to come up with ideas — suggested
Digital Arts
that making Coast Boulevard a one-way street might help solve congestion problems. Dorota Valli, who staffs the Animal Protection and Rescue League table on the walkway but did not participate in the workshop, had a different spin on redevelopment: “This place should be a world-class wildlife viewing area, it should be a reserve. … We would like to see a new visitor’s center.” While workshop ideas ranged about what would work best, there was agreement that the summer con-
struction moratorium — which prohibits public projects along the coast between Memorial Day and Labor Day — should be lifted to speed up work on the lifeguard station. “That could save one year in construction,” said Joe LaCava, La Jolla Community Planning Association trustee and past president at the workshop. Sleiman said, should the summer building ban be lifted, work could begin as soon as mid-May 2012 on the new Children’s Pool tower following the seal pupping season.
UCSD Professor Shu Chien learned last week that President Barack Obama had named him a recipient of the National Medal of Science. Shu Chien, a UCSD biomedical engineering professor, is one of seven researchers chosen for the annual honor, The White House announced in a statement. The Chinese-born Chien and the other medal recipients are expected to receive their awards at a White House ceremony later this year. Chien was chosen for pioneering work in cardiovascular physiology and bioengineering, according to a White House statement released Tuesday morning. An expert on how blood flow and pressure affect vessels, Chien’s research has led to the development of better diagnostic tests and treatments for atherosclerosis, which refers to the hardening of the arteries, and other diseases, a UCSD press release notes.

Expectations high Vikings in search of CIF title BY PHIL DAILEY phildailey@lajollalight.com
T
he La Jolla High girls tennis team is always a strong contender for the CIF title and this season is no different. There has been one major change this season, however, as long-time coach Maggie Mulkins stepped down as the team’s head coach. Taking over is a familiar face to the program in Lisa Shih, a 2004 La Jolla High graduate who also served as an assistant last season. Despite a new coach, the goals have remained the same. “We all know what the goal is, and that’s to win CIF,” said Shih, who also played college tennis at UC Irvine. The team’s goal of winning CIF came up short last season as the Vikings lost narrowly in the finals to cross-town rival La Jolla Country Day. Since 1977, the Vikings have won CIF 22 times and appeared in the finals all but twice during that 34-year span.
So far this season, the team is off to a hot start beating Scripps Ranch, University City and Our Lady of Peace in the their first three matches. The team recently won the Titan North County Invitational Double Tournament, a first for the school. The Vikings beat Torrey Pines in the finals to capture the championship. “It was a fun experience and it was really fun to see what other teams are out there,” freshman Kylee Hum said. The team is led by Alison Klein and Emily Kuo, both of whom played in the CIF individual tournament last season. Klien lost in the quarterfinals while Kuo came up short in the third round. Both lost to the eventual winner and runnerup from Torrey Pines High School. But when it comes to Division III, the Vikings won’t play Torrey Pines in the team competition. And with seven more matches this month the postseason is still a month away.

From Tennis, A18 but despite the early-season success, the team has not forgotten last season’s loss to country Day, a loss that has the team focused. “A lot of parents have come up to me and said, ‘My daughter has been playing in the offseason,’” Shih said. “It’s hard not to think about that final match and I’m doing my best not to think about it. I think right now, they talk about it, but I say, ‘Let’s focus on the match we’re playing now.’” One difference in coaching styles Shih has added has been the way practice has been run. The players say there is a faster pace to practice, a nice change from what they have experienced in the past. “We have more drilling,” Klein said. “They are shorter, but more concise. (Shih) brings a lot of her college tennis drills to the team.” And that could be the difference this season. Though cIF is still a month away, there’s no doubt that this squad is building toward being the best Division III team in the San Diego Section. “We are definitely expecting to see country Day in the finals of cIF and hopefully beat them,” Klien said. “We’re already starting to strategize and how we’re going to have our lineup and who we’re gonna beat this year.”

Ex-mayor Dick Murphy coming to La Jolla for talks about his new book Dick Murphy, 33rd mayor of San Diego, 2000-2005, graduated from the University of Illinois and earned an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and a J.D. from Stanford Law School. After serving as a U.S. Army officer Dick Murphy in the Pentagon and the White House, he became an attorney in San Diego. He was on the City Council, 1981-1985. In 1985, he was appointed a San Diego Municipal Court Judge and elevated to the San Diego Superior Court in 1989. Murphy was elected mayor in a comefrom-behind election in November 2000 and was reelected in 2004. His accomplishments include establishing San Diego’s first ethics commission, creating the San Diego River Conservancy, and building a new downtown ballpark for the San Diego Padres baseball team.

A little bit of this and a little bit of that — La Jolla Music Society adds spice to new season By MaRti Gacioch he La Jolla Music Society’s Season 43 stands ready to dazzle the senses with its program of 26 virtuoso performances beginning in early November. Havana’s sizzling Kings of Salsa will kick off the 2011-12 program with a spirited music-and-dance performance of mambo, rumba and cha, cha, cha moves. The entertainment will continue throughout the season with performances from symphony orchestras, chamber music ensembles, pianists, modern dance groups (like the body-twisting, moves of shape-shifting Pilobolus), and a premier

selection of pop, classical, cabaret and salsa music artists. Christopher Beach, the society’s president and artistic director, chose to once again open the season with a high-voltage world music performance. “For the first time last year, we began presenting world music and dance with the Koto drummers of Japan,” he said. “It was immensely successful, and the Kings of Salsa is a big, festive high-energy, hot show — another great season opener.” According to Beach, the society actually has two openings this season. “We also have the opening of the Rev-
elle Chamber Music series, and that’s the first La Jolla concert,” Beach said. “Then we go in what you would think was just the opposite direction with a Venetian baroque chamber music ensemble, but I promise you that Interpreti Veneziani is as thrilling as Kings of Salsa is hot.” For Beach, a highlight of Season 43 is the opportunity to present three great American orchestras: The Chicago Symphony, the Cleveland Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic. “It’s very rare that these orchestras will

La Jolla Cultural Partners
Clarinda Higgins and William G. Armstrong Jr. were married in Westport, Conn., on July 8. The bride, who retains her name, is the daughter of the late Beverly Moore Quady, a La Jolla resident for 35 years, and the late Bradley C. Higgins of Worcester, Mass. Her mother, Beverly Quady, was a long-time resident resident at Casa de Manana where she served as Chair of the Welcoming Committee (and where she organized and hosted a gala engagement party for the couple.) Beverly was also active with St. James-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church where she was one of the first lay readers. Clarinda, known as Rindy, has been a frequent visitor to La Jolla and has many friends in the area with whom she remains in contact. In her professional life, she is a marine educator who is active in civic affairs. The groom, the son of Margaret Armstrong of Berea, Ohio, and the late

Executive Chef Mary Ann Vitale still uses her father’s Sicilian recipe to make Italian sausage, grilled with bell peppers and onions.
For the tastes of Tuscany, with a dash of Sicily, head to La Taverna and mangia! mangia! By DANIEL K. LEW ot quite tucked away in La Jolla Village is La Taverna, a small Italian restaurant that could have been transplanted from a typical, oldItalian neighborhood. La Taverna, which only seats around 30-40 people, might be small in comparison to other area restaurants, but it makes up for it with generous servings of rustic and classic Italian food with a strong Tuscan influence. Customers first enter La Taverna’s sidewalk patio through a vine-covered archway wrapped with twinkling lights. Stepping inside the intimate dining room, it feels like one is transported to an Italian village alleyway. The inside of La Taverna is designed to look like an “outside” Italian restaurant with glowing street lamps, a tiled roof protruding from the wall, high ceiling, second-story balconies and windows, and a beautiful mural accenting a whole wall. Once settled in, patrons are ready for a home-style, Italian meal. The restaurant’s cheeses, prosciutto and pastas are imported from Italy, with the rest of the ingredients coming from local, organic farms, said Mary Ann Vitale, owner and executive chef. Vitale, a second-generation ItalianAmerican, grew up around Italian delimarkets and pizza restaurants operated by her parents, and she started to cook and bake at a young age.

On The
Menu Recipe
Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com. Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story. ■ This week: La Taverna’s Shrimp Scampi She also learned from her father, Saverio Fumusa, who hails from Castellammare, the sausage capital of Sicily. Vitale continues to use her father’s recipes to make Italian sausage and a few other dishes. Classic Italian comfort food is what Vitale knows best — and she proves it in the restaurant’s most popular dish, Parmesan-Crusted Breast of Chicken, covered in a zesty breadcrumb and Parmesan cheese crust. It’s baked to a crisp, then topped with a lemon shallot sauce and served with garlic “smashed” potatoes and a vegetable medley. Pasta dishes enough for a meal include Pennette alla Vodka, made with marinara sauce, a touch of cream, red chili pepper flakes and vodka. The self-proclaimed “Famous” Pasta La Jolla is equally hearty with grilled chicken breast, oven-roasted tomatoes and mushrooms in a Parmesan cream sauce tossed with pennette pasta. Risotto del Giorno — or “risotto of
the day” — changes regularly; the risotto on one particular visit was Pesto Risotto with goat cheese, pine nuts and grilled chicken breast. Regular patrons say they look forward to Vitale’s moist, old-fashioned cakes as much as the main courses. Upon entering the restaurant, customers are tempted to head straight for dessert with displays of the daily baked Coconut Cake, Buttermilk Chocolate Cake with espresso frosting, and most-popular Banana Cake with brown-butter frosting, cream glaze and pecan topping. Mondays and Thursdays are the most crowded nights when a 5-course Tuscan Menu is served for $24.95 a person. Those who want a “Taste of Tuscany in Small Bites” can try Wednesday’s special menu 5:30-7:30 p.m. to sample dishes like Meatballs with Marinara, Housemade Sausage with Pepper and Onions, Eggplant Parmagana, Shrimp Scampi, or Caramelized Onion, Gorgonzola and Prosciutto Focaccini. La Taverna’s selection of appetizers, salads, entrees and pasta dishes include sandwiches and pizza at lunchtime. Vitale also operates a second eatery, Sorella Della Taverna Gourmet Deli (Sorella means “sister” in Italian) at 7420 Girard Ave., La Jolla. The deli features sandwiches, pastas, salads, baked goods, Italian meats, cheeses and La Taverna sauces ready to take home. Sorella specializes in catering, as well as delivering lunches to area schools.

Attendees can stroll among the booths to see the latest designs and innovations, and of course, purchase a custom-built surfboard, Bass said. In addition, they can watch presentations of surfboard shaping by the area’s top professionals. What people won’t be able to do is find cheap, mass-produced boards or the innumerable racks of merchandise and other extraneous accessories that dominate, not only most of today’s surf shops, but the entire $40 billion surfing industry, he added. “Sacred Craft was started in 2007 as a way for local shapers to have a place to show their wares, because a lot of surf shops weren’t carrying boards by the local shaper, which in my opinion, is the lifeblood of the (surf) culture,” Bass said. “I wanted to create a situation where people could talk to the shaper and manufacturer oneon-one as opposed to going to a surf shop and talking to an 18-year-old girl who wants to sell you sandals.” Among the highlights of the two-day expo will be an Art of Shaping auction, an Art Grotto of about 20 top surfboard artists, an ecofriendly Sustainable Craft showcase, and demo rides on the cutting edge surfboards. In addition, attendees can bring in their old surfboards on Saturday, Oct. 8, to be appraised by experts in a manner similar to tele-
Church holds top rummage sale ever As part of its mission to serve the community, La Jolla Lutheran Church, 7111 La Jolla Blvd., held a rummage sale on Sept. 17 to benefit injured service members as well San Diegans who need food assistance. It was the church’s most successful rummage sale to date and raised more than $6,000. The San Diego County Chapter of Thrivent Financial for Lutherans contributed an additional $1,600. Net proceeds from the $7,600 raised will benefit Wounded Warriors Project (woundedwarriorproject.org) and Feeding America San Diego (feedingamericasd.org).

This year’s surf expo honoree is Carl Ekstrom, who invented and patented the asymmetrical surfboard in 1967. Courtesy of saCred Craft vision’s “Antique Road Show.” “[The appraisers] give insight on it and some history,” Bass said. “A lot of people are sitting on buried treasures. It’s a lot of fun.” The food, beer and music that are indispensable to surf culture will also be plentiful, he added. The event is designed to be family-friendly and will offer items such as concerts, Korduroy TV short videos lounge, and a longboard skate zone as well as competition that kids can enjoy. “Any 10-year-old would be stoked,” he said. “Next door will be another exposition on gourmet food and wine. So the husband can check out the boards while the wife goes to that, or vice versa.” The expo’s coup de grace is the Tribute to the Masters Shape-off, in which six shapers have an hour and a
half to create their own surfboard based on the design of an acknowledged master for a grand prize of $1,000. This year’s honoree is Carl Ekstrom, who invented and patented the asymmetrical surfboard in 1967 and who will also be one of the three Shape-off judges. Currently residing in Rancho Santa Fe, the 70-yearold Ekstrom was raised in La Jolla and was an integral part of the WindanSea Surf Club. Based on his expertise using the specific materials in surfboards, Ekstrom also helped design automobile components, medical machines and military helmets, as well as the surf wave machine. “In the Shape-off, the shapers are all bringing their own concepts of asymmetry,” Ekstrom said. “It’s a whole new way to express their passions. I’ve always

viewed shapers as fine artists.” Tim Bessell of La Jolla is
one of the six competitors in the Shape-off and said he has shaped about 48,000, mostly high-end, surfboards since he started in 1971 at age 13. Owner of 100 Percent, a surfboard company and art gallery in La Jolla for the past 25 years, Bessell will also have a booth for his new company Nomad Mobily Furniture, which fabricates furniture out of surfboard material. “I eat, dream, sleep and sweat surfboards,” Bessell said. “Surfboards are either art forms or commodities. China came in and destroyed surfboard manufacturing in the U.S. Now, 80 percent of the surfboard market is some cheap rip-off.” Ekstrom agrees and relishes that Sacred Craft focuses
on shapers and manufacturers from San Diego and Southern California. To Ekstrom and those involved with the show, surfing in Southern California on a surfboard made elsewhere is akin to driving a Korean car in Detroit or drinking Argentine wine in Napa Valley. It might not be bad, but it just doesn’t seem right. Ekstrom believes the time is ripe for a renaissance in the local industry and that Sacred Craft is paving the way. “This show is looking more toward the future than the past,” he said. “You think you’ve seen it all but you haven’t. It just keeps going. They’re doing new things on waves and they should have new equipment to do what they want to do.”

Let Inga tell you ... Jane Smith tells her two closest friends that she and her husband Fred will not be able to attend a group dinner the next night as planned. Pressed for details, she finally confides that the two had a huge fight and have decided to spend the weekend away from each other to cool off. Jane reminds them that this is strictly confidential information. She does not want to start any rumors. But Fred’s and Jane’s absence is noted and an Inquiring Mind, professing deep concern for Jane, persists in querying one of the close friends if Jane and Fred are having problems. Close Friend finally says, “You have to promise you won’t say anything.

Puerto Rican family’s dreams of stardom will surely take them ‘Somewhere’ Left: Jamie Macrae (Leo ash evens) and alejandro Candelaria (Jon rua) in the Matthew Lopez drama ‘Somewhere,’ premiering at The Old globe Theatre through Oct. 30.
If you go ■ What: World premiere ‘Somewhere’ ■ When: • 7 p.m. Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays
Let’s Review
By diana Saenger Playwright Matthew Lopez (‘The Whipping Man,’ which played at The Old Globe last year to become a critical success in New York) is back at The Globe with a new show, “Somewhere,” a warm and inspiring family saga directed by Giovanna Sardelli. The narrative is somewhat autobiographical as Lopez grew up in New York City in a family that migrated from Puerto Rico. He said the plot came from hearing stories about the time his father took his siblings into the city to be extras in “West Side Story.” “They spent two weeks waiting on the set, and finally my dad made it in the legendary Jerome

Set in 1959, “Somewhere” follows a Puerto Rican family’s journey to find fame and fortune. But as matriarch Inez Candelaria works the dream of a life in show business for herself and her three children, she’s stopped cold in her tracks. It seems New York City has other

plans; preparations loom to tear down their dwelling to make way for construction of the Lincoln Center. “Growing up in a musical theater family, all being enormous aficionados, there’s a very particular energy that musical people give off, and I wanted to capture that in this play. I’m also a history buff, so marrying the history of the time with my family’s experiences was the genesis.” “Somewhere” delivers on those elements perfectly. It’s easy to be drawn into the children’s dilemma of how to get stubborn mom (Priscilla Lopez) to finally leave
their home or be arrested. Yet, how bad can things be when their lives are infused with the joy that comes from celebrating life through dance and music? Intricate dance numbers accompany each scene. The three Candelaria siblings are as different as night and day. Juan Javier Cardenas, as Francisco Candelaria, is a hilarious loose cannon who can’t seem to find his niche but insists on worming his way into anyone else’s. Jon Rua is outstanding as the younger brother Alejandro, a conflicted soul who can’t live out his own dream because he’s stepping in for their missing father. (Who is coming back … or is he?) Benita Robledo brings a smile every time she’s on stage as the little sister, Ben-
ita, hoping to breakthrough as a dancer. She’s full of life, optimism and eager to soar. Lopez said he is thrilled that his aunt, award-winning actress Priscilla Lopez, is playing the mother, Inez. “I was four years old when in the same week my parents took me to see Sandy Duncan in ‘Peter Pan’ and my aunt’s portrayal as Harpo Marx in Broadway’s ‘A Day in Hollywood/A Night in the Ukraine’ (which won her a Tony Award),” Lopez said. “I grew up idolizing her.” Priscilla Lopez was also nominated for a Tony for her role as Diana in the original Broadway cast of “A Chorus Line,” introducing the hit “What I Did for Love.” Her other Broadway credits include “West Side Story,” “In the Heights,”
“Nine,” Lysistrata, “Pippin,” and “Henry, Sweet Henry.” She’s an absolute joy to watch in “Somewhere,” hoofing it up like a seasoned veteran, indefatigable as a mother who wants the best for her children, and forlorn as a woman alone who longs for her love lost. Fantastic choreography — especially on the tight set of this theater-in-the-round — by Greg Graham, includes the moves of Leo Ash Evens as the family friend-turnedproducer Jamie, whom I could have watched for hours. Despite the Candelaria family’s endless energy, they must face some big obstacles on the journey to their dreams. Their passion and love unites in a magical memory that is both touching and unforgettable to those of us watching.

I think that’s going to be a great show.” A highlight of every season is the Winterfest Gala. This year’s March 2012 event will showcase German cabaret singer Ute Lemper paired with the string mastery of the Vogler Quartet. “Although concert tickets are available to everyone, gala tickets are $1,000, which includes not only the concert, but dinner and cocktails at Anthology,” Beach said. ”You rarely get to hear the music of Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel and Kurt Weil, especially by someone as extraordinary as she is, and Ute Lemper is the real thing.” Beach finds that the perfect venue is essential to every performance, whether that be dance, a piano recital, a chamber ensemble or an orchestra. After he moved to San Diego six years ago, he visited the city’s available theater venues and determined the

Promises2Kids and the Jewish Community Center will present an evening with child abuse survivor and New York Times best-selling author, Dave Pelzer, at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 11 at the JCC, 4126 Executive Drive. Proceeds will benefit Promises2Kids, and its work to break the cycle of child abuse through prevention, education and advocacy. Pelzer survived one of the most horrific cases of child abuse in California’s history. He has circled the globe carrying his inspirational story of human survival and is considered one of the nation’s best public speakers. An author of six inspirational books, Pelzer has been on the New York Times best-seller list for more than six years for, “A Child Called ‘It,’ One Child’s Courage to Survive.” Pelzer was rescued at the age of 12 from his abusive parents and raised
in foster homes. He went on to become a member of an elite Air Force group and was named one of “Ten Outstanding Young Americans” by the U.S. Junior Chamber in 1993. Having appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show and Larry King Live, Pelzer uses his life experiences to teach others how to let go of the past and use negative experiences to make them stronger. Dave VIP tickets are $40 and Pelzer include reserved parking, priority seating, and a wine and cheese reception with the author from 6 to 7 p.m. General admission is $16-$12 at sdcjc.org or by calling (858) 362-1348.

As for future seasons, Beach said he’d love to present world-renowned pianists Mitsuko Uchida and Martha Argerich and expand the society’s dance presentations.

Phenomenal opening lights up the night at Museum of Contemporary Art By Lonnie BurStein Hewitt he show the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego is calling “its most ambitious exhibition to date,” attracted a crowd of members and VIPs to a preview party at the museum’s La Jolla location on Sept. 24, the night before its official public opening. “Phenomenal: California Light, Space, Surface,” was full of delights that included glowing acrylics, mirrors, prisms, and an opportunity for guests to immerse themselves in two contrasting environments: a large, dark, pillshaped room that encouraged eyes to see through the blackness and an ultra-narrow passageway shimmering with green light. “Phenomenal” is part of “Pacific Standard Time: Art in LA 1945-1980,” a huge project initiated by L.A.’s Getty Foundation that includes 68 exhibitions around Southern California and shows how the state’s regional artists have influenced the rest of the world. MCASD director Hugh Davies introduced the exhibition and then Getty’s Deputy Director, Joan Weinstein, whom he called “the Mother of Pacific Standard Time.” Weinstein said the project was a labor of love for all participants and hailed MCASD’s contribution as “absolutely brilliant.” In closing, she encouraged art-lovers to “get on the road and make the whole PST circuit. You’ll discover some extraordinary art!” she said.

They had their first exhibition in 1919, and in 1921, when a public library (now the Athenaeum) was built at Girard Avenue and Wall Street, they established a gallery there. Today, after several changes of locations several times, their current space at 8100 Paseo del Ocaso in La Jolla Shores is the site of their Second Annual Black & White Juried Exhibition.

Five scientists receive Fishman Fund awards for medical research The Sanford-Burnham Institute’s annual Fishman Fund Award ceremony, planned for 5:30 p.m. Sept. 8 on the La Jolla campus, took place despite the massive blackout. About 50 people gathered for the ceremony. Afterward, all reconvened outside Chairmen’s Hall for dinner — supporters in cocktail attire mingling with scientists in jeans — as the caterers worked in semi-darkness. The award, which features a $6,000 prize for career development, is named for the Institute’s founders Dr. William and Mrs. Lillian Fishman. The recipients were: • Dr. Gregory Aubért (investigates the circuits that control fuel and energy metabolism in heart cells, with the
goal of understanding how improper functioning of those circuits can lead to heart failure). • Dr. Caroline Kumsta (studies the molecular underpinnings of aging that allow cancer development). • Dr. Aman Mann (identifying the characteristics of blood vessels in tumors that allow them to resist therapies intended to prevent the them from growing and nourishing the tumor’s cells). • Dr. Martina Pröll (understanding how dysfunction of the immune system can contribute to the development of inflammatory bowel diseases). • Dr. Roberto Tinoco (studies immune system T cells and their ability to eliminate cells that have been infected by viruses).

Recognized by DownBeat as “one of the outstanding pianists of our time,” Wofford’s first performances date to the 1960s with the Lighthouse All-Stars and the bands of Shelly Manne, Teddy Edwards, Chet Baker, Bud Shank and Shorty Rogers. From the ’70s to the ’90s, Wofford toured with artists like Lee Konitz, Benny Carter, and Zoot Sims, and as pianist and music director for Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald. His wife and co-leader in the quintet, Holly Hofmann, is one of the Athenaeum’s favorite performers.

Next Bronowski Forum will offer ‘music and science at the margins’ By Ron newBy An evening of improvisational conversation between David Borgo, jazz musician (and much more) and James Fowler, expert on social networks (and much more), will take place at the fall Bronowski Art & Science Forum, 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 13 at The Neurosciences Institute, 10640 John Jay Hopkins Drive. The two UCSD professors will weigh-in on the topic “Sync or Swarm: The Complex Dynamics of Improvisation and Influence.” In 1994, Borgo won first prize at the International John Coltrane Competition, and has released seven CDs and one DVD, and has toured internationally. In 2006, his book “Sync or Swarm: Improvising Music in a Complex Age,” was awarded the Alan Merriam Prize from the Society for Ethnomusicology as the most distinguished book in the field. Borgo currently performs with his electro-acoustic duo KaiBorg, which explores the intersections between live audio and video processing and free improvisation, and with his sextet Kronomorfic, which explores polymetric time. He will perform a short Jazz compo-

Fowler’s areas of research are social networks, behavioral economics, evolutionary game theory, political participation, cooperation, and genopolitics (the study of the genetic basis of political behavior). His research has examined the correlation in parent and child partisanship, one’s willingness to be adventurous or not within certain group settings. These studies have provided
evidence for a link between genetics and behavior. With Nicholas Christakis, Fowler has written, “Connected: The Surprising Power of Our Social Networks and How They Shape Our Lives.” He’s been featured on numerous television shows, including two appearances on “The Colbert Report.” Free tickets to the Forum must be obtained with advance reservation at eventbrite.com/event/2206523772
Lecture series to explore the cantatas of J.S. Bach Elisabeth Kotzakidou Pace will present the series, “Musical Narratives of Theological Complexity: Nine Lectures on the Cantatas of J.S. Bach,” at 2:30 p.m. on third Sundays, October-June, at the Riford Library, 7555 Draper Ave. Topics planned thus far include: “The Certainties of Faith” (Oct. 16), “The Mystical Wedding” (Nov. 20) and “Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh” (Dec. 18). Wikipedia defines a cantata as a form of vocal chamber music most popular during the Baroque period. It was originally associated with the Lutheran service and has since been applied to other chorus and orchestra works. Pace earned a Ph.D. in music theory from Columbia University and a master’s in vocal performance from the Juilliard. She took training in cognitive science at Princeton and UCSD. She has taught both music and cognitive science-related topics at Washington University, Columbia University and UCSD. For more details, call (858) 552-1657.
