Downhill biking now prohibited at Torrey Pines State Reserve

PRSRT STD U.S. POSTAGE PAID SAN DIEGO, CA PERMIT NO. 1980
By Ashley Mackin Biking downhill on the paths of the Torrey Pines State Reserve, above Torrey Pines State Beach, has been prohibited as of Oct. 1, with officials citing safety concerns. The California Department of Parks and Recreation issued a statement indicating the route is shared by hikers, runners, parents with baby strollers, bicyclists and vehicles. “The great popularity of the park has caused many potential conflicts among these different users as they travel up and down the hill,” the statement read. “To reduce the potential for these conflicts, California State Parks has implemented a variety of measures that A sign gives notice about will help keep hikers, the new traffic regulation bikers and vehicles for bicycles. Ashley Mackin separate from each other.” These new measures include: A prohibition against riding bicycles down the hill (because the steep hill promotes excessive speed); trail improvements immediately adjacent See Biking Regulation, A9
Standing for the Symbol
Mount Soledad cross drama fills the pages of a new book By Joe Tash To Robert LaCosta, the 24-year legal battle over the Mount Soledad cross includes many dramatic elements, from tension between generations, to disputes over the treatment of religious symbols, to respect for those who served in the military and died in battle. After working on the story for 15 years, earlier this summer LaCosta published his novel about the long-running court case, called “Gamaliel’s Advice: Taking Down God.” The book was published by Thomas Nelson, and is available in bookstores and online. LaCosta, 57, a resident of Albany, New York, frequently travels to San Diego to visit
his brother, Paul, and his family, who live in Scripps Ranch. He has often enjoyed visiting the cross atop Mount Soledad to admire the view and the peaceful setting. When he found out that some in the community wanted to take it down, he said, “I was shocked.” He said he understands the viewpoint of those who say they’re not against religious freedom, but simply oppose religious symbols on public land (when the legal battle began, the cross was on property owned by the city of San Diego.)

Neighbors in Bird Rock are concerned about the lack of trash pickup at lookout locations, such as the end of Forward Street.
This temporary fix to a hole in the railing is also irking neighbors, who say this has been in place for weeks. Photos By Ashley Mackin
Bird Rock Community Council hears residents’ concerns By Ashley Mackin Many residents attended the Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) meeting on Oct. 1 with concerns about trash pickup, broken irrigation systems, Halloween safety and the federal government shutdown.
Bird Rock
Community
Council
‘All they are seeing is trash’
Speaking on behalf of his neighbors, Don Schmidt said that in an effort to save money during Jerry Sanders’ mayorship, trashcans were removed and garbage pickup stopped at lookout locations in Bird Rock that do not have beach access.
“It’s been a problem for months at the ends of Forward Street and Midway Street,” he told the council. “The residents are trying
to have a trash can, but there is no regular trash pickup. Now that the city is doing better, and if they have the money to expand the convention center, they really should be putting those trash cans back with regular trash pickup. We had a lot of visitors over the summer and all they are seeing is trash. If it doesn’t get picked up, it goes into the ocean, so it’s also an environmental hazard.” At the same lookout, a section of chicken wire has been installed to fix a hole in the railing. “They need to come out and fix this, too,” Schmidt said. “The temporary fix was
fine for a few days, but workers have been M.I.A. for weeks, if not months.” Schmidt said he would be in contact with the offices of District 1 Councilmember Sherri Lightner to bring the problem to her attention.
Infrastructure issues
During a report on the Maintenance Assessment District (MAD), treasurer Barbara Dunbar said several people have been asking about the malfunctioning irrigation system. “There have been a number of irrigation

Rec Council adds four new members, plans centennial By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Rec Council welcomed four new members to its board during the group’s Sept. 25 meeting, including a fitness expert, newly arrived parents and an established community leader. “I’m particularly glad to see new people on the board,” Rec Council President Doug Fitzgerald said. “If you’re in a group long enough things on occasion can get a little stale. You sort of keep doing the same things by rote all the time, rather than reaching out and getting your minds around new ideas.” n La Jolla High School graduate Jan Harris learned to play tennis at La Jolla Rec Center in her youth, going on to major in kinesiology (athletic training and sports science) at the UCLA and UC Berkeley. She later served as department chair for the School of Kinesiology and Nutritional Science at Cal State Los Angeles and as director of the School of Exercise and Nutritional Sciences at San Diego State University. She moved back to La Jolla in 2010, and also serves on the board of the Copley Family YMCA in City Heights. “I think recreation and sports are a very important part of any community,” Harris said. “The Rec Center is accessible to anybody. There are no fees or low fees for just about everything going on there, so most anybody can take part — and I think that’s important. “In general, I want to support programs that are going on now and pay attention to what people say in terms of any changes or additions that need to be made,” she added. Since Harris began attending meetings in July, she said La Jolla Rec Center has had two acting (interim) directors. “I think the first thing that needs to happen is that the city needs to hire a permanent recreation director,” she said.

People on the committee are hopeful that soon they will be interviewing for a permanent director.” n Brian and Lizzet Cluster moved to La Jolla in May of 2012, when Brian’s work in the market research field brought them from Palm Springs. “We have three kids now and we have a vested interest in making sure the Rec Center is the best it can be — kid friendly with good programming. All the wonderful things that it has been, we hope it will continue to be in the future,” Brian Cluster said, noting that he is excited to be part of the board of one of the oldest recreation centers in the country (designed by master architect Irving Gill), and helping plan for its centennial. Brian Cluster said he hopes to help make

October is National Physical Therapy Month To celebrate, Ability Rehab Specialists will be hosting an Open House Thursday, 10/24/2013 from 4pm – 6pm. Our therapists will be offering 15 minute screenings for Balance & Gait Issues, as well as Back & Neck Pain. Our clinic has achieved great results treating these ailments and we want people to realize they don’t have to live with chronic pain or the inability to participate in activities they love. Functional movement is central to what it means to be healthy. Physical therapy (PT) can assist in maintaining and restoring maximum movement and functional ability throughout the lifespan. The professional therapists at Ability Rehab will analyze the structure, alignment, and movement patterns of each individual. They will provide insight into the underlying causes of pain and loss of function, such as muscle imbalance or weakness. After a thorough evaluation, we can design a treatment plan to help reduce pain and significantly improve mobility to perform daily activities. If you have tried other remedies without success, give PT a try. Call our office to RSVP today at 858-456-2114. Screenings will be offered on a walk-in basis, but appointments are highly recommended to guarantee a spot.

to their investigation.” Gray Brechin, an author and historical geographer working to save Berkeley’s historic post office from being sold, said he has some faith in the audit, given what he has heard about David Williams, the Inspector General for the USPS. Williams has criticized the USPS’s drastic pre-funding of its retiree health benefits, as well as its real estate contract with CBRE. “I’ve heard that he is an honest man … one of those people of rare integrity,” said Brechin of Williams, noting that investigative journalist Peter Byrne’s new book exploring the potential conflict of interest in CBRE’s handling of post office sales, “Going Postal,” relies heavily on a report issued by Inspector General Williams that Brechin and Byrne characterized as “pretty damning” (including criticism of U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the wife of CBRE President Richard Blum). “CBRE gets to represent both the buyer
and seller, which is extremely unethical,” Brechin said. “They also get to advise the Postal Service on which properties to sell, which can be very lucrative and is probably one of the reasons that California and the Connecticut Gold Coast are the areas most disproportionately being hit — because they have some of the highest property values.” USPS Office of Inspector General Chief of Staff Agapi Dolaveris told La Jolla Light the results of the audit will now be made public in February. “We will issue all our findings, what we looked into, our scope and methodology, and what we found,” Agapi said, noting that the objective of the audit — “a review of the process and plans for the disposal and preservation of historic USPS properties” — falls within the scope of reviews her office normally conducts, though it comes, in part, at the request of New York Congressmember José Serrano.
Serrano spokesperson Philip Schmidt said constituents there are unhappy about the pending sale of the historic Bronx post office. Though the exterior of the Bronx post office has a historic designation, its interior, which includes “historically significant murals” (similar to the one inside La Jolla’s post office) is not protected with a historic designation, he said. “The community is upset about the idea of losing service, but they’re also upset about a historic property potentially being turned over to a private developer,” Schmidt said. “The congressman has been in contact with his constituents, postal workers and unions and up and down the chain. … He wants to make sure that they (USPS) dot every single ‘i’ and cross every single ‘t’ in their regulations as they move through this process, if they feel they have to sell these buildings, and I don’t think (Serrano) agrees that they have to.”

By Pat Sherman The United States Postal Service’s (USPS) independent Office of Inspector General has extended the deadline for public comment on the way in which the USPS is handling the sale or disposal of its historic buildings, including La Jolla’s historic post office in the Village at 1140 Wall St., which it intends to sell.

Comment on the audit ■ Through Nov. 10 online: bit.ly/postalaudit ■ Through Dec. 31 via mail: Office of Inspector General U.S. Postal Service 1735 N. Lynn St. Arlington, VA 22209-2020 Both Serrano and Congessmember Peters are behind legislation aimed at saving their respective post offices. In Peters’ case, the Community Post Office Relocation Act (introduced in March with Congressmember Susan Davis) would allow communities like La Jolla to purchase their post office building from the USPS at fair market value, so that they can keep the postal services in place, and decide who rents the remainder of the space. In July, Serrano inserted a provision in an appropriations bill that questions the legality of the USPS selling the Bronx post office, calling for increased scrutiny of the transaction. However, Serrano’s bill is stalled due to wrangling over federal spending and the government shutdown, Schmidt said. Meanwhile, Peters’ legislation hit a roadblock with the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Chaired

by Congressmember Darrell Issa (R-49th), the committee has legislative jurisdiction over the USPS. As with news about the planed sale of La Jolla’s post office, Brechin said USPS has been slow to provide details about the sale of Berkeley’s post office. “They’re being very, very cagy,” Brechin said, “because the moment they announce the sale, they know we will sue them.” Berkeley activists are working with the National Post Office Collaborate (represented by the law firm of Ford & Huff) in its action against the sale of U.S. post offices. Last week the collaborate filed a temporary restraining order to stop the closure and sale of the 1916 Stamford, Conn. post office, Brechin said. Meanwhile, the USPS has scheduled the majority of Berkeley post office employees to be transferred to an alternate location, Brechin said. Berkeley activists are working with the city council in an attempt to rezone their civic center area — where its threatened post office is located — as a historic cultural zone, Berkeley post office preservationist Margo Smith added. “We want to make the post office building unpopular to developers,” she said, noting that the USPS has thus far been unwilling to negotiate a mutually beneficial use of the building. “They’re sly in that they call this a relocation,” Smith said. “If it were (considered) a closure it would be a whole different set of rules that would be more restrictive on what they can do and can’t do.”

Acknowledging that downhill speeds are often faster than uphill speeds, San Diego County Bicycle Coalition Executive Director Andy Hanshaw said if their concern is for safety, there needs to be consideration for all users. “We’ve asked to continue to be involved and monitor (the measures) and what the eventual outcome will be, and how we can be a part of that dialogue, and they have been very responsive to that,” he said. “Obviously we’d like to maintain bicycle access through there are much as possible.” The Bicycle Coalition met with the Department of Parks and Recreation so members could be informed about the new measures and, in turn, inform the cycling community. Hanshaw said the prohibition is a temporary measure until a more permanent decision is made. The Park and Recreation statement also stated, “Over the next year, we will be working with a consultant to explore other long-term options but, for now, this is the best approach for the sake of visitor safety.”

Coastal Access board has traffic plans for Coastal Commission La Jolla
Coastal Access and Parking Board By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla Coastal Access and Parking board (LJCAP), tasked with implementing the La Jolla Coastal Access Parking Plan, is moving forward with a list of alternatives to the initially approved plan, having deemed it impossible in its entirety. The La Jolla Coastal Access Parking Plan — outlined in a California Coastal Commission approved memo from 1993 — consists of a) implementing a remote parking reservoir and shuttle system, and b) other shortterm and/or long-term parking and traffic circulation relation programs and improvements. The California Coastal Commission collected developer impact fees and applicable interest to set aside for these projects, which to date, total $276,000. LJCAP Chair Dan Allen said there were many reasons the
original shuttle system and aspects of the remote parking reservoir plan were deemed unfeasible, including the unavailable land for the remote parking reservoir (such as a parking lot not in use by any other organization or area where a parking lot could be built), the high cost to maintain the shuttle, and insufficient number of regular commuters to justify the cost. Instead of fully rejecting the Coastal Access Parking Plan, the board wanted to present a list of alternatives that, hopefully, meet the Coastal Commission requirements. “We cannot make the shuttle system work, but we want to see the money used for something else,” Allen said. In drafting the list, the board asked the community to submit suggestions, along with its own. A criterion was established to determine if suggestions would even qualify or be appealing alternatives. The criterion are: it meets “shuttle” requirement (the Coastal Commission defining “shuttle”); it is a self-sustaining, one-time expense; and it can be done with LJCAP funds, or is already funded by other sources. Each of the 12 suggestions in the first draft is labeled with a “yes,”
Finding free, public parking in La Jolla Village can be difficult during peak times in the afternoon. Ashley Mackin “no,” “maybe,” or “not likely” as to whether it meets each criterion. Allen said it would be up to the Coastal Commission to determine what is the best-case scenario. For example, whether a one-time expense is preferable to funding from other sources or with LJCAP funds. A few ideas, such as, “Fund a ferry service from Oceanside/
Carlsbad area to La Jolla,” did not meet any criterion, so it was excluded from the list. A first draft was compiled last month to be voted on at the LJCAP meeting on Oct. 1, but due to a lack of quorum, the group could not vote to approve the list. Once the list is approved (ideally at the Nov. 3 meeting), it will be circulated to other community planning groups
for feedback, suggested prioritization and approval. Once it is approved by the La Jolla Community Planning Association, it would then go to the city’s legal team, and then to the Coastal Commission for consideration. The list in its current order is not the prioritized list, but item No. 1 is the closest to the Coastal Commission’s original plan. It reads: “Fund the startup (not a demonstration) of a Village shuttle that circulates between parking lots and garages and various destinations in La Jolla — without regard to ‘remote parking reservoir.’ Could be golf cart-based.” The golf cart idea is board member Nancy Gardner’s. She has been on the board for two years, and said this project has been on the to-do list the entire time. “Something needs to be done to help La Jolla, and at some point we’ll get the city’s attention to do so. I’m just worried that it’s taken so long to get this far. “We, as members of the board, want to improve access to our community, in and out and within the community. We would like to have some kind of service so that people would not need to take their cars around in the Village.”

‘Seafoam Sleepwalk’ brings wet, WoW theatre to La Jolla Shores By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt It was a perfect beach day on Friday, Oct. 1, when Basil Twist’s Birth-of-Venus puppet extravaganza, “Seafoam Sleepwalk,” had its third Without Walls (WoW) Festival performance at the north end of La Jolla Shores. It was the first piece commissioned by La Jolla Playhouse for the festival, and the day before had been its world premiere. As the audience gathered on the sand, a woman dressed in Japanese attire seated herself on a platform at the surf-line and started filling the air with sounds from a customized electronic keyboard koto and a collection of instruments, including wind chimes, gongs and a hand drill. A master musician with the experimental spirit of Yoko Ono, Seafoam’s sleepwalker/muse, Yumiko Tanaka previously performed with Twist at the Playhouse in “Dogugaeshi.” About 20 yards to either side of her platform, partly obscured by netting, were various bits of puppet paraphernalia, and a team of wet-suited performers, checking their props. It takes a village to launch a Venus: six company members from New York City, one from Japan, plus seven local puppeteers and theater
Spectators watch a performance of ‘Seafoam Sleepwalk’ on La Jolla Shores beach as part of La Jolla Playhouse’s Without Walls (WoW) Festival. Maurice Hewitt folks. And there’s no backstage at the beach. Tanaka’s soundscape kicked off the show with a mix of electro-pop, Japanese classics, jazz standards and Wagner, as the beach detritus, hauled into the sea by dancing attendants, came to life. With surfers in the background, the huge face of a blonde goddess arose from the water, accompanied by a pair of flying cupids. The audience ‘oohed’ as she winked, and then gasped as she capsized, toppled by a rogue wave. This was live theater in plein air, and plein ocean — no controlling the vagaries of wind, waves and kelp. After a few minutes, the attendants got Venus upright again, and the crowd cheered. “This is Venus, the
goddess of love, shedding her skin, rising out of the primordial sea to be born, and then reborn,” whispered art historian Pierrette Van Cleve, at my side. “This is what creation myths are about. We create, and we destroy, and then return back to the ocean, only to evolve and re-evolve again.” The next evolution had some of the attendants, including Twist himself, slipping out of their wetsuits and into a striptease that ended in a tug of war. Angered by their violence, the goddess turned into a toothy sea-monster, who swallowed them all, and finally collapsed. The performers took their bows to enthusiastic applause, and the swelling music of “Love is a Many-Splendored Thing.”
“I thought it was absolutely fantastic,” said Barbara Zobell, a board member of the Playhouse. “A perfect fantasy!” It was, in fact, Basil Twist’s
fantasy, which came to the award-winning, New Yorkbased puppeteer when he was wondering what kind of sitespecific piece to do for WoW. “I thought: well, I love the
beach, so it would be cool to do something there,” he said. “But there’s no offstage, so where would stuff come from? The ocean, of course! My musings led me to Aphrodite, the Greek goddess born from the sea foam.” “Seafoam” audiences grew from performance to performance — two happening each day of the four-day festival — and every performance had its challenges: high winds, beach volleyball players, lifeguard emergencies. But always, the show went on. “It was a lot of work,” Twist admitted. “Everything here is hard, wet, and sandy. But the company and the audiences have been great.”

Top thinkers share ideas at Atlantic Meets Pacific confab
s
An Oct. 3 panel on innovative approaches to cancer treatment included moderator James Fallows; Greg Sorenson, CEO of Siemens Healthcare North America; Christopher Slapak, senior vice-president of Imclone Systems; Kristina Vuori, president and interim CEO of the Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute; David Sadava, adjunct professor of cancer cell biology at City of Hope Medical Center; and Scott Lippman, director of the Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego.

By Pat Sherman Some of the world’s foremost authorities on science, health and technology shared their ideas during the third annual The Atlantic Meets the Pacific conference, held last week on the campus of UC San Diego and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. During a panel discussion on innovative approaches to cancer treatment, Oct. 3 at Scripps Seaside Forum, Scott Lippman, director of the Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego, compared the current revolution in oncology to the rapid transformation in Internet and computer technology of the early 1990s. While cancers originating in the lungs, breasts or colon were once chiefly defined by their “site of origin,” today’s researchers are increasingly defining cancers by their “molecular signature,” Lippman noted. “It’s changing completely the way we define cancer,” he said. “Genomics is just the beginning. This is a change in the way we do trials, and a change in the way we develop drugs to treat cancer.” Drug trials that once dragged on for years and years are going by the wayside,” Lippman added. “We can actually look into a tumor; we have the technology to identify what drives them, what makes them tick” and what their weaknesses are. Kristina Vuori, president and interim chief executive officer of Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute in La Jolla, noted that while just a decade ago it was believed

that breast cancer was a single disease, it is now known to be a mix of many different diseases. “We are making really great scientific advances in the classification of diseases,” she said. “Thanks to technological advances, we can take biopsies of tumors and do very detailed micro-level analysis.” Moving forward, Vuori said she hopes molecular diagnosis will be used to match a patient to the safest, most efficacious drug, based on their cancer’s molecular signature. Sanford-Burnham researchers are also making advances in understanding the process of metastasis — the spread of cancer from the organ or area where it began, to another location in the body. In solid tumors, 90 percent of patient deaths are due to metastasis, Vuori said. “What we now know is that in every cancer there is something that we call a ‘cancer stem cell’ that originally causes the tumor to happen,” she said. “It’s probably the culprit for why the cancer comes back after treatment. You can think of this cancer stem cell or tumor-initiating cells as a queen in a beehive. If you don’t destroy that queen, the beehive keeps coming back.” Greg Sorenson, chief executive officer of Siemens Healthcare North America, said personalized medicine could help prevent cancer patients from being treated with drugs that don’t work for them. “We as a system need to figure out ways to incentivize early and efficient diagnosis,” he said. “Everybody talks a lot about costs these days, but the most wasted healthcare dollar is the one that you didn’t even need to spend because you got the wrong diagnosis.” Asked what aspect of cancer the panelists find most difficult to explain to patients and
Wars are won or lost. Scientific “battles are not won or lost; they’re either solved or yet unsolved, so there’s a fundamental conflict with the idea of declaring war on cancer. It’s like saying ‘I’m declaring war on a puzzle.’
”
— During a virtual interview, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and physician Siddhartha Mukher Jee said the ‘war’ metaphor used to discuss cancer research may have an obfuscating effect. others not involved in the field of oncology, answers ranged from the fact that it’s difficult to know what causes most cancers — be it external, internal or genetic factors — to the time it takes to develop and get safe and effective cancer treatments on the market (as long as 7 to 10 years, on average). Rather than discovering a panacea or “magic bullet” for cancer, Vuori and Lippman said it is a more realistic goal to make cancer a chronic, manageable disease. “We will have some cures for some types, but my belief and my hope is that we can convert most cancers into chronic diseases, like heart disease or high blood pressure,” Lippman said.
The tech effect
During a panel on the ways technology is changing the patient experience, Peter Yu, president-elect of the American Society of
Clinical Oncology, said technology should be employed to create a better record of patients’ experiences. “Unfortunately, cancer is not curable in most cases … and so there are painful choices,” Yu said, noting that the term “quality of life” can be difficult to define. “We have ways for patients to give us that information,” he said. Pat Christen, president and CEO of HopeLab, talked about how her organization is helping adolescents with cancer deal with their disease via a series of online video games called, “Re-Mission 2.” Christen said that when HopeLab developed the initial version of the game, they found “shockingly horrible” technology in many hospitals. “You often hear about virtual divides … in the context of patients not having access to computers or the Internet or Smartphones,”
she said, noting the need to get technology in people’s hands that is “meaningful to them, and in a context that makes sense.” In the case of teen cancer patients stuck for long periods in waiting rooms, Christen said the game proved “very engaging for them, and emotionally salient,” helping them view their treatment as an adventure and fight to be engaged in. “Data is incredibly important, incredibly powerful,” Christen said. “We need to be making evidence-based decisions, but people do not change behavior based on data. They change behavior when something is emotionally salient to them.” In order to get people to change their eating habits, take medications or quit smoking, she said, the healthcare industry must pay closer attention to shifts in behavior that are constantly taking place — for instance, how memes and trends move through a culture, Christen said. “Unfortunately, that’s often used for things that are not good for our health, but there is no reason they couldn’t be used for things that are pro-health,” she said. “Millions and millions of dollars get invested in making sure you’re buying the right car or the right perfume. If we had that same impetus we could make some pretty dramatic shifts” in people’s health habits, she said. Jordan Shlain, founder and chair of HealthLoop, said health practitioners should be approaching the problem from a standpoint of “choice architecture,” which is used in marketing and product placement. “If you make something easy for somebody at the time they want to do it, they will do it,” he said.

From Mount Soledad Cross, A1 “The trouble with that thinking is there are a lot of people who believe that particular symbol is intertwined with military sacrifice. So it’s not quite that simple,” LaCosta said in a telephone interview. “It’s almost like two trees growing together, you cut one and you cut the other,” he said. The original lawsuit was filed in 1989 by Philip Paulson, a Vietnam veteran and atheist. But other veterans opposed efforts to take down the cross, and the case gained national attention as it worked its way through the courts. Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case, sending it back to the District Court in San Diego. A hearing is scheduled before U.S. District Judge Larry Burns on Oct. 15, LaCosta said. The book focuses on two main characters, a World War II veteran who is determined to save the cross, and his granddaughter. At times, the granddaughter — who is based on LaCosta’s niece, a Marine pilot — must endure teasing from her peers over her family’s involvement in the case, LaCosta said. The book also has a Rancho Santa Fe connection, in the character of a young attorney who works for the City of San Diego and defends the veterans’ position. The attorney’s father bears a resemblance to Charles LiMandri, a Rancho Santa Fe attorney who has worked in court, with legislators and the political arena in an effort to save the cross, LaCosta said. LiMandri said the book is a “good read,” and although LaCosta does take some “poetic license” with the story, he captured the essence of the legal case.
The Mount Soledad Veterans Memorial is the only memorial with photo engraved granite plaques, and war records dating back to the Civil War, according to retired Col. Robert Porter, a trustee from the Mount Soledad Memorial Association. Robert LaCosta is the author of ‘Gamaliel’s Advice: Taking Down God.’ Courtesy “I think he does a nice job kind of summarizing the long and involved history of the cross, particularly the litigation concerning the cross. The way he presents the litigation is accurate and understandable,” LiMandri said. LiMandri said he expects the case to eventually come back before the U.S. Supreme Court, and it could be a springboard for deciding a range of similar cases, such as disputes over displays of nativity scenes at Christmas-time. “I think they’re waiting for this case,” LiMandri said. LaCosta has also written a screenplay of the novel, which he hopes to see made into
a film. One aspect of the story that fascinated LaCosta was the way a symbol that had been accepted by the community for so many years suddenly came under fire. The Mount Soledad cross was constructed in 1954, and existed without controversy for more than three decades. “That’s why a guy from New York got so entrenched in this thing,” he said. San Diego’s large population of active-duty and retired military may be one reason the fight has gone on so long, he said, noting that in another place, the cross might have been taken down years ago.
Dolwain Green
“I’d like to see San Diego portrayed as a city that stood its ground… it’s a great place that loves veterans,” LaCosta said. The title of the book refers to Rabbi Gamaliel, a first-century teacher of Jewish law. In the New Testament, Gamaliel intervened on behalf of the apostles of Jesus when they had been seized and brought before the Sanhedrin, the supreme Jewish court. “Gamaliel’s Advice” is LaCosta’s third book. Now a full-time writer, LaCosta worked for years in the hearing aid business, building up a chain of offices where clients were fitted with hearing devices. He has since sold the business.

‘Think and Grow Rich’
La Jolla author updates iconic self-help bestseller, helps others persevere By Pat Sherman In 1908, the richest man in the world, steel magnate Andrew Carnegie, tapped an unknown writer named Napoleon Hill to interview the wealthiest and most influential men in the world — people such as department store founders James Cash (J.C.) Penney and F.W. Woolworth; Thomas Alva Edison, George Eastman and President Theodore Roosevelt. The resulting book became one of the top20 bestselling books in history,“Think and Grow Rich.” A hundred years later, the Napoleon Hill Foundation tasked La Jolla author Greg S. Reid with interviewing some of today’s top wealth-producers and innovators for an update of the book. The result, “Think and Grow Rich: Stickability (the Power of Perseverance)” includes interviews with everyone from Frank Shankwitz, the founder of the MakeA-Wish Foundation, to Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and inventor Martin Cooper. “People couldn’t relate to J.C. Penney and Woolworth and those people of the past, so I went to modern day, iconic figures, interviewing them to find out what they did to persevere,” said Reid, a former advertising executive who grew up in Del Mar. “I was watching ’60 Minutes,’ and I saw Marty Cooper and I said, ‘I’ve got to interview that guy because he invented the cellular phone.’ Two days later I’m in his

office picking his brain and he gave me some of the greatest words of wisdom I’ve ever heard. “One of the things that Marty said is that stickability has to be parallel with another word: flexibility. He says if you’re not willing to adapt and adjust, you’ll end up being stuck. … Right now what you think might be saving you is leading to your demise. The whole idea of stickablity is having the flexibility to sometimes let go, so you can live to fight another day.” Also interviewed in the book is WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg; Anouseh Ansari,
the first female private space explorer; threetime Olympic Gold medalist Leah O’BrienAmico; Ron Klein, inventor of magnetic strip credit card technology; and film producer Gary Goldstein (“Pretty Woman,” “Mothman Prophecies”). “Imagine pitching a romantic love story about a prostitute to Disney?” Reid said of the 1990 Julia Roberts/Richard Gere hit, “Pretty Woman.” “(Goldstein) says that movies die a thousand deaths before they ever breathe life into them, and he talked about the challenges he went through on his journey, and about having stickablity
when he believed in a script, and not letting other people talk him out of it.” While Reid said Hill’s original version of “Think and Grow Rich” focused more on personal achievement and wealth-building, his update “is about not quitting and giving up on your dream before the miracle arrives. “Most people have a great idea … (but they) quit during the challenge. I wanted to interview people to find out why they didn’t give up on their dream when other people said they were crazy — and more importantly, they didn’t talk themselves out of their goal.” Reid said one of the most common ways in which his interview subjects said they made it through challenging times was to commit themselves to a cause or ideal greater than themselves. “If we just do it for our own success … it’s easy to quit when the going gets tough,” he said. “When you’re committed to something, rather than just being interested in it, that’s where the miracle happens.” Reid will hold a seminar outlining the principles of stickability, 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Oct. 21-22 at the San Diego Marriott La Jolla, 4240 La Jolla Village Drive. The cost is $199 and includes admittance to the premiere of the movie, “Stickablity,” Oct. 21 at ArcLight Cinemas in the UTC Westfield Mall.

Students can solve the Cove stench problem If the birds remain, the stench will continue. Donate future stench cleanup money to La Jolla schools. The schools then organize and monitor year-long science projects. Project 1: “La Jolla Humane Bird Removal Contest.” Kids make sculptures they think will scare away the birds. Sculptures are placed in the offending areas as a school sculpture display, and the kids monitor the results as a school science project. A student can replace his/her sculpture any time. At the end of the year the sculpture with the least poop around it wins. Project 2: “La Jolla Humane Poop Prevention Contest.” Kids throughout the year use water guns to scare away the birds. Perhaps kids invent better water guns and the rights are sold to manufacturers. The project results are monitored by students for a science project, and they report how quickly the birds move to another location. Wanna bet how long the birds will stay? Pete Ward La Jolla
City’s position on Children’s Pool endangers citizens I was the captain of the boat involved in the Sept. 30 rescue of a handicapped scuba diver and his partner. These divers considered using the Children’s Pool less than one third of a mile away as a safer alternative to Boomers Beach where they were rescued. Unfortunately, the city currently has policies in place to discourage public use of the Children’s Pool, as well as planning an outright closure. These policies almost cost these divers their lives. The city needs to balance the safety of residents with environmental protection. One should not come at the expense of the other. Closure of the Children’s Pool endangers public safety and should not be allowed. The Lifeguard Plan should be adopted.

Leave our trees alone!
ately, in addition to the daily annoying cacophony of leaf blowers, garbage trucks and sirens, a more sinister sound has been added to the “Song of La Jolla.” Chainsaws have been decimating trees at an alarming rate for no apparent reason. Last year we saw at least six of our 100-year-old Eucalyptus trees removed from Ivanhoe and Girard. The same lame excuse is always offered about it being a matter of public safety but the real reason is fear of lawsuits buy some idiot who might have his car dented by a falling branch. In the past two weeks at least 10 trees have been destroyed in the WindanSea Beach area, including a 100-year-old cypress on Nautilus, three majestic palm trees on Playa Del Norte, a stand of pine trees at La Jolla Boulevard and Marine Street and several pines on Electric Avenue. Sometimes the excuse is that the tree is buckling the sidewalk, well then, fix the damn sidewalk! A hundred years ago when La Jolla was brown dirt and cactus populated only by jack rabbits, trees were the first things planted by the early settlers in an attempt to make this barren, waterless rock a home. Those trees have stood the test of time through drought, global warming, pollution and other trials, and they deserve something better than to end up being fed into a wood chipper.

T
he ability to survive and recover from a major earthquake will depend on the amount of planning each Californian does in advance — would you know how to contact a loved one after the next quake strikes? Communicate with your family and neighbors now about what to do during and immediately following an earthquake.

Rec Council vitals
The Rec Center’s current acting director, Roozbeh Ravansari, commended the council for living up to its mission of “enriching lives through quality parks and recreation.” “The La Jolla Rec Center is open far beyond the hours allotted to us by the City of San Diego, and this would not be possible without the help of passionate and generous community members — the kind that make up the La Jolla Recreation Council,” Ravansari said. “I can honestly say I have never met a more passionate group of Recreation Council members. …

Now we’ve got four new ones, so that’s good.” The Rec Center will celebrate its centennial with an event in June of 2015 (it’s official dedication was July 3, 1915). Before then, Fitzgerald said he’d like to see the building repainted inside and out and the main meeting room floor resurfaced — work he recently learned the city plans to complete, freeing up valuable Rec Council funds. “We need to perk it up,” Fitzgerald said. “The old girl needs some painting.”

From Bird Rock Council, A4 system disruptions, problems and challenges in the past year,” she said, citing construction projects such as the Brow Ditch water divergence and the repair of the lighted crosswalks at Colima Street and Midway Street. “All of those activities messed up our irrigation system and not all of it was immediately obvious. However, testing is underway to ensure all the needed repairs are made.” An additional problem to the irrigation system is “drive-overs” on landscaped areas and roundabouts. Dunbar said drunk drivers, distracted drivers and drivers of large vehicles will drive over the roundabouts, running over plants and cracking sprinklers. She said the board would like to be notified if someone sees a broken sprinkler by e-mail at info@BirdRockCC.org
Halloween safety
The Neighborhood Watch Chair reported that police would continue having the Retired Senior Volunteer Patrol (RSVP) and officers on bicycles watching the streets on Halloween night. She also reported there would be a haunted house at a private residence this year, for which donations will be accepted and front-of-the-line passes sold. She requested the community continue limiting trick-or-treat hours to 5-8 p.m. on Halloween night, and that residents turn their lights off promptly at 8 p.m.
Congressman Scott Peters passes on paycheck “Happy Government Shutdown Day, everyone!” joked Congressman (D-52nd) Scott Peters’ field representative Sarah Czarnecki when she spoke to attendees. “This is an extra important day for us to be at community meetings, talking to everyone (and answering questions).” She said Peters’ office had received many phone calls with questions about the government shutdown that Congressman Scott went into effect at Peters (D-52nd) midnight Oct. 1 (9 p.m. Pacific Time) wanting to know what it means to the public. Czarnecki distributed a flier (available at ScottPeters.house.gov/shutdown-information) that explains what the shutdown means, including what services will continue and which will be furloughed. Peters’ staff is technically volunteering by working during the shutdown. They are not being paid nor have they any guarantee they will be paid retroactively. In solidarity, Peters, a La Jolla resident, announced he would not accept his pay during this time. “He is going to donate it to charity,” Czarnecki said. “He’s doing this because
Americans across the country are being harmed by the shutdown. San Diego has a lot of federal employees who are being furloughed from their jobs because Congress failed to do its job. He is going to do everything he can to get people back to work, but in the meantime, he is going to stand with them by refusing to keep his pay.” It is constitutionally required that members of Congress be paid, but each can opt to decline it. Czarnecki said the San Diego and Washington D.C. offices will be open during the shutdown for constituents with questions. Peters’ San Diego office is at 4350 Executive Drive, Suite 105 and can be reached at (858) 455-5550.

n Neighborhood Watch requests that residents whose homes face an alley, paint their addresses on the backside of their homes to assist police and rescue personnel.

Dunbar said the budget must be submitted to the city by January, and there is no December meeting.

He presented La Jolla philanthropists Sally and John Thornton with a private jet excursion to Santa Barbara for their contributions to San Diego (Sally Thornton also danced with Tony Prado, and was bestowed a “Diva of Dance” Lifetime Achievement award). Pourteymour also provided the trips for winners Williams and Teirstein, and a trip for Erica Davis, who did a dance routine in a wheelchair.

coordinator Junior Leoso’s defensive line), “I did it right.” The huge home crowd at Edwards Stadium let out a roar on the sack by Smith, as it watched the red-and-black defense — humbled only two weeks earlier in a 66-34 loss to Santa Fe Christian — bounce back and help move La Jolla to a pre-league record on the season of 2-3. Coronado dropped to 2-4. Hayden said of his gamechanging interception and return to the Coronado 19yard line with 5:49 remaining in the game: “We were in cover three (each player covers a third of a deep zone). The defensive line’s rush was textbookperfect, pressuring the quarterback. So I was able to pick off the pass.” Head coach Jason Carter and his staff used the Vikings’ off week to simplify the defense. As senior defensive end Ian Beed explained, “We are making sure everything we do is understood by each individual player.”

Seemingly effective against Coronado, this simplicity of pass coverage was accompanied by an emphasis on making sure to wrap up on tackles during the extra week of practice. During the game, the Vikings got on the scoreboard early, with running back Reid Martin carrying four times, and Martin and wide receiver Nic Skala each taking down quarterback Collin Rugg’s passes in the opening drive of the game. Rugg’s 26-yard pass play in combination with Skala’s effort put La Jolla up 7-0 at 9:22 of the first quarter. La Jolla then followed up on its next possession with a great onehanded snag by receiver Carlton O’Neal, good for 20 yards, and Martin powering through Coronado’s line with two 20-yard runs before Brandon Bonham leaped for a pass lofted by Rugg into the back right corner of the end zone for a touchdown.

By Ed Piper With just over seven minutes remaining, La Jolla High School trailing 22-21 in its own Homecoming game, LJHS strong side linebacker Tyler Smith noticed that Coronado’s running back was focused on fellow Viking linebacker Bret Schuman, the outside linebackers blitzing. So Smith slipped in and sacked the Islanders’ quarterback, dropping him for a sevenyard loss on first-and-15 back to Coronado High’s own 19-yard line. That set up Viking cornerback Connor Hayden for an interception and short return on the next play. When La Jolla’s offense took over, three plays led took them to the end zone and a 27-22 lead that the defense held the remaining 4:46 of the game for a gratifying, hard-earned win Oct. 4. “I just did my job,” said Smith. And, like Schuman and Hayden (a senior in new

O’Neal snagged five catches for 57 yards. Running back Eric Tims scored on touchdown runs of two and five yards. In the defensive corps, Guard Justin Cook and linebacker Anthony Stanley each racked up eight tackles. Cook had four TFL (tackles for a loss of yards). Outside linebacker Schuman and free safety Demarco Bland each had five and a half tackles. Beed had three solo tackles. Beed, Smith and Schuman each had a sack. Carter, looking pretty pleased with the second victory of his first season as head coach, said, “I thought we were in total control. The defense bounced back and played well. We spread it out on offense, and it was effective.” On Oct. 11, La Jolla plays its last non-league game at University City at 6:30 p.m. before four consecutive league contests to finish the regular season.

Six weeks into the season, Rugg leads passers with 98 completions in 163 attempts, a .601 percentage, for 1090 yards, an average of 218 yards per game and 10 touchdowns. All of these place the 6-foot-3 junior far ahead of anyone else in the Western League. Bonham has 19 receptions for 364 yards. Skala has caught 32 passes for 310 yards. Carlton O’Neal ranks seventh, with 20 receptions and 210 yards, while Reid Martin has 11 catches for 126, placing him 10th among Western Leaguers.

What brought you to La Jolla? In 1983, my husband and I moved to Los Angeles, for excitement and warm weather. My husband was offered a position with the Security Exchange Commission. We returned to Boston one year later. We were warned by our California friends that “the pull” would bring us back. As soon as we arrived back on the East Coast, we looked at each other and said, “What did we just do?” It took us many years to return. In 1990, we returned to La Jolla. We had our five-year-old son and our daughter would be born in 1991.

What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? I love La Jolla and I love our Village, but I would like to see us build a stronger community with a wide variety of resources. Over the years, I’ve come to realize that I am dedicated to helping seniors. They are faced with numerous concerns and uncertainties at a time that can be quite challenging for them. It brings me great joy to know that I can make the slightest difference for them in their lives.
By Linda Hutchison Deepening San Diego’s cultural life and appealing to its increasingly diverse community is part of the La Jolla Music Society’s mission. This year, by bringing some of the world’s greatest music and musicians to San Diego for the 2013-2014 winter season, the society is far surpassing its own vision. “It’s a celebration, our largest ever,” said Christopher Beach, the society’s President and Artistic Director. The organization is celebrating its 45th anniversary season with many debuts, a new Cabaret Series, and several celebrity recitals and orchestras, including famed cellist Yo-Yo Ma, the Boston Pops and Music of the Baroque. “I love this season because we are trying even harder to bring in artists who are especially exciting,” said Beach, who is leading his eighth full winter season as director. “We are offering world music, from China to Italy.” The season kicks off with two performances in La Jolla at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s Sherwood Auditorium. On Saturday, Oct. 12, pianist Yuja Wang will make her San Diego debut, performing works by Prokofiev and Chopin.

‘Tallest Tree’ pays homage to the great Paul Robeson
La Jolla Cultural Partners
By Diana Saenger The La Jolla Playhouse has a solid reputation for developing plays with outstanding theatrical artists. That tradition continues when Moisés Kaufman returns to the Playhouse to direct the world premiere of “The Tallest Tree in the Forest” opening Oct. 9. Daniel Beaty (“Emergency,” “Through the Night”) has written the new play with music, and he will perform his work, which centers on the internationallyrenowned vocalist and star of stage and screen, Paul Robeson. Robeson became one of the bestknown African-American artists in the world in the early 20th century. “The Tallest Tree” features excerpts from several of his signature songs, including “Ol’ Man River” and “Steal Away.” Robeson won an academic scholarship to Rutgers University in 1915. He became a football AllAmerican and the class valedictorian. After graduation, he went to the New York University School of Law, and for a short time worked as a lawyer before becoming an entertainer. He began singing and performing in productions in the United States and Great Britain. He was bestowed a Lifetime Achievement Grammy Award, as

Find Mexican fare with Old World flare at Alfonso’s By Kelley Carlson fter spending years working in the restaurant industry, Alfonso Fierro had a desire to put some new ideas on the table. Not getting the response he wanted from his employers, he set out to introduce the San Diego area to his own creations. Forty-two years later, his restaurant, Alfonso’s of La Jolla, still carries on its traditions of homemade cuisine with much of the offerings unchanged over the years. Fierro, who is often at the restaurant, does his best to ensure that guests are welcomed warmly. “Mi casa es tu casa (my house is your house),” he said with a smile. Those who want to absorb the sights of bustling Prospect Street sit on the covered patios, which are accented with red, white and green pennant flags that flap in the ocean breeze. People chat with friends while nursing icy Coronas, and as the autumn nights turn chilly, the heaters kick on to keep everyone comfortable. Around 6 p.m. on weekends, the artist in residence (currently guitarist Miguel Zuniga) begins to softly play music. Beyond the patios and up several stairs are two indoor dining rooms, which reflect the rustic elegance of old world Mexico. There are tiled tables and brick arches, fireplaces, gilded mirrors, colorful artwork and tapestries. Sombreros are everywhere. Typically mellow by day, Alfonso’s tends to become more lively starting at around 7 p.m. Regardless of the time, people are drawn to the fare, and many begin by sharing the Appetizer Tray, which includes samples of beef-and-cheese quesadillas and carne asada flautas that can be dipped in the accompanying guacamole, sour

n This week’s recipe: Alfonso’s Carne Asada and Camaron Combo cream and cheese; grilled steak; vegetables; and shrimp if requested. Fierro encourages the use of “Mexican chopsticks” — aka fingers — which he says enhances the flavor of the food. Soups are another popular choice, including the homemade Tortilla Soup with a zesty tomato base, thin strips of tortilla, chunks of avocado, swirls of sour cream and melted cheese. Among other options are the spicy Shrimp Soup or the Albondigas with meatballs, potatoes, carrots and zucchini. Signature entrees include the Carne Asada Burrito Fantastico, consisting of a large flour tortilla stuffed with meat, covered with ranchero sauce and cheese, and garnished with slices of avocado and sour cream. The most popular dish is the Carne Asada and Camaron Combo: meat marinated in herbs and spices and garnished with Ortega chiles; shrimp sautéed in garlic butter that bursts with flavor once lemon is squeezed over it; and rice and beans. Additional choices include the Pescado Veracruzano, featuring fish sauteed with onions, tomato, cilantro and olives; the spicy Shrimp Burrito; the Puerto Nuevo Lobster Tail; and the Quesadilla Mercedes (named for Fierro’s wife) topped with shrimp cooked in a ranchero sauce with bell peppers, tomato and onions.

County to offer free depression screenings
FROM MUSIC SOCIETY, B1
The San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA), in partnership with Community Health Improvement Partners (CHIP), is hosting its annual series of free depression screenings until Oct. 12 at each of the 45 locations countywide. San Diego County residents over the age of 18 can visit designated sites and receive a free, anonymous depression screening or learn about the signs and symptoms of depression, anxiety disorder and postpartum depression. An experienced mental health clinician will be available to meet with individuals needing immediate intervention or referrals for ongoing help. There are three screenings in La Jolla: Scripps Green Hospital, 10666 N. Torrey Pines Road from 4-7 p.m. Oct. 10; Scripps Memorial Hospital, 9888 Genesee Ave. from 4-7 p.m. Oct. 10; UCSD Campus Library Walk, 9500 Gilman Drive from 5-8 p.m. Oct. 12.

On Sunday, Oct. 20, the Silk Road Ensemble will perform. The eclectic group was formed 14 years ago by cellist Yo-Yo Ma as part of the Silk Road Project in Boston. It is known for its dynamic combination of modern, traditional and international music. On Friday, Oct. 25, singer Audra McDonald introduces the new Cabaret Series. The acclaimed singer and actress (a five-time Tony Award winner) will perform popular and classical songs at the Balboa Theatre downtown. The new series will also feature Tony Award-winning singer Patti LaPone with “Far Away Places” on Jan. 31, 2014 and Ann Hampton Callaway singing “The Streisand Songbook” on May 10. The Boston Pops conducted by Keith Lockhart will introduce the season’s Celebrity Orchestra Series on Wednesday, Nov. 20 at Copley Hall. “It will be a star-spangled performance, with the best pop music in the world,” Beach said. The group will perform works by American composers John Williams, Leonard Bernstein, Aaron Copland and George Gershwin (“Rhapsody in Blue”). The Celebrity Orchestra Series will continue with Chicago’s Music of the Baroque in April, directed by British conductor Jane Glover. “She is one of a few women conductors and a good friend of mine from New York,” Beach said. The orchestra will perform Haydn’s “The Creation.” “It is one of the greatest pieces of classical music, a choral masterwork, featuring a fabulous cast of singers,” Beach added. The Celebrity Recital Series will include cellist
CARTA forum to address theory of mind The UC San Diego/Salk Center for Academic Research and Training in Anthropogeny (CARTA) will host a free symposium on “Mind Reading: Human Origins and Theory of Mind,” 1 - 5:30 p.m., Friday, Oct. 18 in De Hoffmann Auditorium, Salk Institute, 10010 N. Torrey Pines Road. The phrase “Theory of Mind” (ToM) has historically referred to the ability to attribute mental states to oneself and to others, but has been used in a variety of ways during the 35 years since the original Premack and Woodruff paper. The analysis of ToM has been the subject of many papers in developmental psychology and in anthropogeny, the latter focusing on differences in mental performance between humans versus other mammals and birds. Because precise definition is necessary for rigorous scientific analysis, the first talk will focus on what ToM is. The rest of the talks will cover the Ontogeny of Human ToM, relevant information on other mammals and birds, and the neuronal correlates and mechanisms of human ToM performance. The half-day symposium is free and open to the public, though registration is required. A live webcast will be offered for those who would like to view the proceedings remotely.

Another highlight of the society’s 45th Anniversary Season will be four performances by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. All four performances will be held at the Sherwood Auditorium and will include Romantic Epicenter on November 8, An American in Paris on Feb. 8, Mozart Connections on March 22 and Defining Voices on April 26.

From 10 QUESTIONS, B1 What are your five favorite movies? “Gone with the Wind,” “Chinatown,” “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” “Life is Beautiful” and “Les Misérables.” Who or what inspires you? My children and husband inspire me. I am also very inspired by all of the seniors I have the advantage of meeting. I am in awe of their drive to live life to the fullest. I have seniors in their 90s using computers, writing books, doing water aerobics, taking
voice lessons, showing interest to serve as volunteers and standing tall with dignity, despite life’s challenges. Their stories are remarkable and heart-warming. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? I would find great joy in hosting an elegant dinner party for my deceased mom, dad and dear husband, Ki, along with my living siblings, Jude, Jim, T.L. and my two children, Peter and Maggie. It would make me so happy to be able to share Peter and
Maggie with all of them. There would be endless hours of chatter, music and dancing.
That is my family. They’re my light … my source of energy.
What is it that you most dislike? I dislike the thought of people being lonely and lacking the support they need. My passion is to provide services to seniors in hopes of lightening their hearts.

‘Harbor Entrance’ by Carolyn Hesse-Low

Library has a winner with its latest plein-air art show
Y
the library art bandwagon! How does that happen? Well, maybe it was the New York-style thin-crusted Amici’s pizza, tangy cheeses and sweetie cupcakes served, or maybe the heartwarming Hawaiian ukulele music got you, or else you were enchanted by the lively plein-air artworks presented by the attractive art committee ladies, who give
out so much affection. On Sunday, Sept. 29, from 2 to 4 p.m. you missed another wonderful library art reception, this time for the new show titled, “Fresh Paint: Impressions of California Plein-Air Artists,” and it was a Jim Dandy. The library art gallery climbed another rung on the ladder to the stars with this exhibition, which features the work of 15 of California’s top plein-air artists. Dwaine Best, a scene and set painter for the La Jolla Playhouse, put his assessment of the quality of the exhibition in a nutshell: “You can feel the different environments the artists are in — each is so fresh!” Artist Toni Williams had advice for those seeking a better understanding of how to view plein-air paintings. “You ask, ‘does the painting have a strong focal point?’
which is where the darkest darks meet the lightest lights. If you squint for a moment while looking at the picture, you can more easily find its focal point.” Williams said the importance of plein-air painting is that it captures the landscape before it disappears in the face of ongoing development and gives us a feeling of where we live. Artist Caroline Hesse–Low added that looking at plein-air paintings helps us become better observers of the natural world – another reason to restore art to the curriculum of our schools! Artist Ken Goldman quipped, “Plein-air art is such hard work! We are trying to put the eternal into the transitory,” to capture a fleeting moment when the light is just so, and preserve that moment in a
s
ou don’t want it to end! What? The Riford Library artists’ reception for “Fresh Paint.” Why? Because you come in skeptical, like an old prude or a “ho-hum” stick-in-the-mud who doesn’t really want to look at some dumb landscapes, and you are transformed into an upbeat, smiling art lover and pleinair “apprecianado” who wants to hop on

way that is valid and meaningful across time, space and cultures. Goldman thinks you can tell a good plein-air painting by its “spontaneity.” “It must look like it just happened,” he said. Artist Patricia Jasper Clark said she looks for the depiction of the light in a plein-air painting when accessing its quality. “A painting is good when the light is true,” she said. Sarah Lucy, head librarian at The Bishop’s School, called the work of Scottie Brown and Jasper Clark, “just gorgeous.” Much discussed by onlookers was the work of Brian Blood. On one hand, Blood could be considered the best modern, plein-air artist, a reincarnation of the turnof-the-century masters, likes Bischoff, Braun and Mitchell. Blood’s work seems to
be of that period with equal quality. However, others consider him to be a superb copyist, without a unique style. Other controversial comments surrounded Hesse-Low’s “Harbor Entrance.” The painting looks down the Point Loma hillside toward Ballast Point, but the flora depicted on the hillside is inaccurate, violating the rule that plein-air paintings need to be historical records of the landscape for posterity. The best painting of the show? Kris Jeffery and Adrian Bjeldness were on the right track when they pointed to the old sheds on the roadside by Robin Hall, titled “Looking Back.” What will your choice be? This reviewer can’t wait for the next Riford Library art reception! Bravo!

Let’s Review Diana Saenger
Talented cast shines in Cygnet’s ‘Travesties’
T
om Stoppard’s “Travesties,” on stage at Cygnet Theatre in Old Town San Diego, is a rarity among works. First produced in 1974, the action takes place in Zürich, Switzerland during World War I. At that time, three notable men lived there — author James Joyce; Dada art movement founder, Tristan Tzara; and communist revolutionary Vladimir Lenin. Also in Zürich is English consular official Henry Carr. Carr, at one time, had a role in Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earnest,” produced by Joyce, and over which, Carr and Joyce had many disagreements. Stoppard imagined how these men would intermingle, intending a play about art, war, revolution and politics, and he actually borrowed some of his “Travesties” characters from “The Importance of Being Earnest.” “Travesties” is like a merry-go-round spinning so fast one can’t jump on. There are characters coming and going so quickly that it’s a little tricky to follow the narrow plot in the first act. But two things really stand out — the humor and the incredible dialogue that the actors deliver rapidly. Carr (Jordan Miller) spouts off about the recollections he has of the three notables.

The only problem is most of them are not true and only jumbled memories thrown together. As Tzara, Brian Mackey is an actor on steroids, providing lots of funny antics and weird physical feats. His ranting about Dada (the prelude to postmodern art) with different characters may leave the intent in question, but certainly provides plenty of entertainment. Joyce (Patrick McBride) pops in and out of every scene hoping to catch an ear to further his causes, and also explain the

W
hen Ron and Marg Bowers opened Bowers Jewelers on La Jolla’s Wall Street in 1945, they could never have known that their business would later become one of the longest standing retail landmarks in the community. But 65 years and a few blocks later in the heart of Girard Avenue, Bowers Jewelers, under the ownership of Larry and Sheila Combe is a thriving La Jolla business. Bowers’ history is one of family tradition and loyalty. Larry’s mother Adele once worked as a designer for the store. Larry later joined her as an employee until he purchased the business in 1981. Since then, he and wife Sheila of 39 years, have been the go-to for La Jollans when it comes to fine jewelry, unique trinkets, jewelry repairs and exceptional, personalized service. With an unparalleled selection, fine quality and real personality, the
family feel at Bowers is contagious. Patrons are encouraged to pull up a chair while they marvel at the many unique necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings and time pieces on the showroom floor. The folks at Bowers remain true to their customers and work tirelessly to provide quality products at fair prices. Boasting a highly qualified, passionate and friendly staff, Bowers keeps the tradition of old La Jolla alive and well.

lawsuit brought against him by Carr over their theatrical production disputes. Lenin is a no-nonsense and ridged man played to perfection by Manny Fernandes. He speaks little English, but his Russian is effortlessly translated by his wife, Nadya, (Maggie Carney). Two other women add spice to the play. Rachael VanWormer is perky and fun as Cecily the librarian, and Carr’s sister Gwendolen (Jacque Wilke), an assistant to Joyce, is amusing in her affection for Tzara. The ladies deliver beautifully sung songs,
especially enjoyable in the second act. Topping off the fun is the butler, who is mostly silent, but whose comical expressions and mannerisms are superbly performed by David Cochran Heath. The play has a little of everything — music, dance, parodies, Shakespeare and hilarity. Although the first act is somewhat dry, the second is worth waiting for. One can only imagine the challenge of orchestrating a script of this caliber, but Director Sean Murray has done a seamless job.

The Life of the Mind
San Diego Independent Scholars welcome knowledge-seekers By Ashley Mackin It’s no secret that La Jolla is a scientific and cultural hub filled with people of diverse life experiences. For those who want to continue to learn through conversation and discussion (and maybe hear a new perspective on something), the San Diego Independent Scholars (SDIS) has an invitation for you. The 80-member group meets once a month at UC San Diego to hear speakers and panel discussions, and the meetings are open to all. There are also sub-groups that meet throughout the month to discuss particular topics of interest. Program Chair Gerry Horwitz said the group started with retired scholars who no longer had a connection to academia but continued to engage in scholarship projects. They gathered to give and receive feedback on projects and expand on their own way of thinking. Now, the group is open to anyone “interested in the life of the mind,” Horwitz said. “Members do not have to be scholars, but be interested in scholarly pursuits.” On Oct. 14, the literature group will meet in the home of Marcus Klein to discuss Robert Louis Stevenson’s “Masters of Ballantrae.”

Past concepts included: normal, risk, personality, belief, now, habit, character, childhood and humor. “We discuss these concepts one at a time and it’s marvelous because the purpose is not to come to an agreement or conclusion, it’s just to hear various takes on whatever the concept is,” Horwitz said. “When we talk about it, it’s hard for some people to understand that we don’t come to a conclusion. Another thing we don’t do is, we do not ever tell anybody they are wrong because everyone is voicing his or her own take on the topic … and your opinion is not wrong or right,” she added. One sub-group, which represents the origins of the group as a whole, is the Works in Progress group. Horwitz explained that whenever a member is working on a presentation, paper or grant application and wants feedback, that member could present it to the Works in Progress group. Those who offer feedback do not have to be experts in any particular field. In fact, Horwitz says presenting to less informed sources is often more helpful. “It really is better because if you are writing something for publication or going
to a conference to present research, it is better to talk to people who don’t have a lot of background in the subject because they tend to ask questions and show what you need to clarify or elaborate,” she said. Members are encouraged to write grant proposals for scholarly projects, and SDIS even has a grant committee to endow these projects. “We had been fortunate in that a widower of one of our early members gave a huge amount of money in her memory to the group,” Horwitz said. “So we decided that should be used as a grant fund to further scholarships.” Past scholarly projects include an exploration of cultural and life changes in Korean women who have professional lives and businesses. At 1:30 p.m. Oct. 19, the monthly meeting for the group at large will be held at UCSD Chancellor’s Complex, room 111A, across from Price Center. The topic will be “Border Issues in Human Trafficking.” The speakers will be Sheldon Zhang, a San Diego State University professor who will share his expertise on labor trafficking; and Lars Almquist, one of the researchers involved in a three-year study sponsored by the National Institute of Justice. Because the meetings are open to the public, Horwitz said she invites anyone to come by and see what it’s all about, including how approachable SDIS is. While in the beginning some people were hesitant to join, doubting whether they could keep up, Horwitz said that isn’t or shouldn’t be a concern. “We have enough members now that usually people find out about (SDIS) through other members, so having their friend or acquaintance telling them about it would absolve them of any feelings like that,” she explained.

LA JOLLA LIGHT - october 10, 2013 - Page B17
Kitchen Shrink Catharine L. Kaufman
Inquiring foodie readers want to know …
W
ith a chill in the air as fall blows in more people start to cocoon themselves in their kitchens, inspired to whip up treasured family recipes from comfort casseroles to scratchmade pies. Not wanting to waste precious time and ingredients with gustatory experimentation or mishandling, while trying to please family members who have assorted dietary restrictions, your questions are now being answered. What are the best apples for pies and cobblers? There are roughly 10,000 apple varieties around the world, yet not all of them are suitable for every use. While the crisp white-fleshed Pink Lady resists browning (oxidizing) when sliced, making it superb for salads and picky kids’ lunches, it’s a dud in pies and other baked treats as cooking zaps its flavor. Go for a heartier variety that maintains its apple essence with heat, like the sweet and tangy Fuji, the full-bodied Winesap, the crisp, sweet and sour Gravenstein, the popular Gala, and even the Granny Smith, although honey or brown sugar is needed to counteract its lippuckering tartness. As a rule of thumb, the best baking apples are firm-textured with a nice balance of sweetness and tartness. Are cheeses suitable for vegetarian diets? A number of commercially processed cheeses contain animal rennet — an active enzyme added to milk to speed up coagulation and separate the curds from the whey. Rennet is extracted from the inner lining of the fourth stomach of newborn calves, lambs and goats before they are weaned. Rennet has also been manufactured through genetic “Frankenstein” engineering by tinkering with bovine DNA and inserting it into bacteria, fungi or yeasts. For vegetarians and rennet-adverse diners, scope out cheeses produced from vegetable enzymes made from plant sources like fig, thistle, unfermented soybeans, safflower and dried caper leaves. Or choose non-dairy alternatives such as tofu, rice or nut cheeses. My picks for dairy cheeses made from vegetable enzymes are Rumiano brand, some varieties of Organic Valley and Landmark. How can I prevent mushrooms from spoiling so quickly? Mushrooms are best stored in a paper bag rather than plastic, as the latter retains moisture, causing them to decay faster. Mushrooms must be handled with TLC, cleaned with a brush to remove sand and grit from the ridges and pits, never using water that will tamper with the flavor. What’s all the hype about kosher salt? Kosher salt is so named for its ideal use in koshering meats according to kashrut
Chewy Chocolate Chunk Pecan Cookies Adapted from the Neiman Marcus Signature Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe 1/2 cup (1 stick) sweet butter, softened 1 cup light brown sugar 3 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 large egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon almond extract 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso coffee powder 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate baking chunks 1 cup toasted pecans or walnuts, chopped ■ Method: Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Cream butter with the sugars using an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add egg and extracts and beat for another 30 seconds. In a large mixing bowl, sift together dry ingredients, and beat into the butter mixture at low speed for about 15 seconds. Stir in espresso powder, nuts and chocolate chunks. Using a 1-ounce scoop, drop cookie dough onto a parchment-lined cookie sheet about 3 inches apart. Gently press on the dough with the back of a spoon to spread into a 2-inch circle. Bake for about 20 minutes or until nicely browned around the edges. Bake a little longer for a crispier cookie. traditions of draining out blood from animals. Top chefs are enamored with kosher salt that is typically pristine without any additives including iodine, giving it a pure salty taste. It is also a larger grain with a flat, platelet shape endowing it with a bigger surface area, making it easier to grip in the fingers and control the quantity when flavoring dishes. While kosher salt is superb for lining the rims of margarita glasses, sprinkling on homemade pretzels and grilled veggies, it is not suitable for baking as it doesn’t dissolve readily. — For additional fool-proof recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county wherein the real property is located and more than three (3) months have elapsed since such recordation. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability tor any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Trustee’s SaIe. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-5731965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site www.priorityposting. com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, Trustee Sale Number 12-0092. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the
Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Date: 10/4/2013 ATTORNEY LENDER SERVICES, INC. Diane Weifenbach, Trustee Sale Officer 5120 E.

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call or visit the Internet Web site, using the file number assigned to this case 13-519837. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
