Festival brings street closures this weekend By Ashley Mackin The La Jolla Art & Wine Festival (LJAWF) is back this weekend (Oct. 13-14), with organizers promising that the annual fundraiser for La Jolla schools will be bigger and better than ever. To accommodate the event — where 30,000 people are expected — the Village streets of Girard Avenue between Prospect and Kline streets will be closed to vehicle traffic both days, beginning at 5 p.m. Friday. Admission to the 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. festival will be free for the first time, thanks to a $40,000 investment from Wells Fargo Bank (although a $5 donation will be accepted at the entrances). Also for the first time, organizers have partnered with the La Jolla Village Merchants Association to move the event into the Village where “booth gaps” throughout the festival will provide access to Village shops and restaurants along the way. “The La Jolla Art & Wine Festival’s partnership with the La Jolla Village Merchants Association has created this amazing symbiotic relationship in the community,” said LJAWF Founder Sherry Ahern. “It’s evident that the festival has fostered a new connection between the [over] 6,000 parents and [over] 3,000 local SEE FESTIVAL, A6

Merchants sign lease for new headquarters By Pat Sherman Following an intense four- to six-month search and lease negotiations, the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) board of directors unanimously approved a two-year lease on the space at 1162 Prospect St. (currently occupied by Alexander Salazar Fine Art). The new 2,349-square-foot space, to be dubbed the La Jolla Information Center, will house the LJVMA offices, as well as the La Jolla Visitor Information Center, currently located at 7966 Herschel Ave. The LJVMA has an option to renew the lease in two-year installments over the next decade, said the association’s board president, Phil Coller. Though Coller declined to disclose the rent amount, he said it would be substantially more than the rent at its current, roughly 600-square-foot space at 7734 Herschel Ave., which costs the association about $1,200 a month.
The new La Jolla Information Center and Village Merchants Association headquarters will open in the space formerly occupied by Salazar art gallery at 1162 Prospect St. PAT SHERMAN The Merchants Association was able to negotiate a rental amount below market value for the new space, Coller said, due to the shared vision of the lessor, Universal Boot Shops (of which La Jolla Cove Suites CEO and Merchants Association board candidate Krista Baroudi is a

managing partner). “(The owner is) very interested in assisting La Jolla develop its plan of becoming what it used to be, helping the merchants association help the community,” Coller said. “So they gave us a

By Ashley Mackin La Jolla has a new, very fashionable neighbor. Kate Spade New York opened its doors Sept. 28, with a grand opening party on Oct. 4. Located at 7931 Girard Ave., the store sells luxury apparel, small leather goods, accessories and shoes. Store manager Sarah Greene said, “We are hopeful that we are at the forefront of the luxury rebuilding of this area. We know that in the past this area has been amazing for luxury clientele and we’re hopeful that with the addition of Kate Spade other [retailers] will follow.” Greene also noted the importance of linking with local businesses. “I feel like businesses that collaborate
NEW BUSINESS REPORT and work together and can service a client from head to toe,” she said. “There are plenty of categories we don’t carry, so having that outreach to another local business where you can just send clients, and really help them from head to toe, helps businesses and helps the clients.” At the grand opening party, guests were treated to 20-percent off any purchase, samples from local baker La Reine de Macaroons, and cupcakes by Cups Organic Cupcake Lounge. Guests were also entered into a raffle to win a $498
Kate Spade bag. La Jollan Cecelia Post tried on earrings and excitedly shopped. “I love to support any store in La Jolla,” she said, adding that she thought the store was merchandised so beautifully, it had a different atmosphere from a department store. Also in attendance was KUSI anchor Alexis Delchiaro, who wore a Kate Spade dress purchased at the La Jolla store on that morning’s broadcast, and to the opening party. Of the new La Jolla location, Greene said “It’s got an awesome mix of local clients as well as visitors, so I feel like the people walking around on the street are lighthearted, everyone’s happy to be here, its an awesome vibe.”

FROM FESTIVAL, A1 students with the local businesses. I’ve never felt such camaraderie for such an amazing, worthwhile cause. Now in our fourth year, it’s truly incredible how far this event has come.” Sheila Fortune, executive director of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association, said the merchants are “extremely excited” about their partnership with LJAWF. “We applaud the festival’s strong commitment to our community, the schools it supports, as well as its desire to bring in more business to the merchants, which is something aligned with our own goals.” Muirlands Middle School joins the list of beneficiaries this year, which
includes La Jolla, Bird Rock and Torrey Pines elementary schools. Funds raised from LJAWF will be used for art, music, science, physical education and technology programs, as well as onsite medical care at the schools. Ahern explained that each of the schools gives $30,000 in seed money for the festival, and “LJAWF then takes the money in August, and at the end of October, we pay our bills and give the schools back their $30,000 and whatever extra net profit we’ve made.” “We would love to make $220,000 this year. $120,000 would pay back the schools’ seed money, the other $100,000 would give each of the four schools $25,000,” Ahern said.

October is National Physical Therapy Month To celebrate,Ability Rehabilitation Specialists will be hosting an Open House & FREE Screening Event on Thursday, 10/18/2012 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 - you might be pleasantly surprised by the results. PLEASE NOTE: Screenings will be offered on a walk-in basis, but appointments are highly recommended to guarantee a spot. Call our office to RSVP today!

The center will also provide space for businesses to advertise and will sell La Jolla-themed merchandise that does not conflict with what is being sold by nearby retailers, such as panoramic aerial photographs of the Village. “The purpose is to be as inclusive of the community (as possible); it’s not just for tourists but for residents and businesses as well,” he said. “We will in some way or form make available space for all nonprofits, like the (La Jolla) Music Society and the
Athenaeum. They’ll all be promotable from that space.” Coller said the rent would be paid in full by income from advertising and promotions, merchandising and a grant the LJVMA is applying for that the San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau (ConVis) previously received to operate the Visitor Center.

Shores Permit Review Committee rejects Vallecitos residence plans By Ashley Mackin At its monthly meeting, Sept. 25, the La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee considered the proposed construction of the “Vallecitos Residence,” located at 2351 Vallecitos. Other items were postponed or pulled from the agenda. The Vallecitos proposal included demolishing the existing one-story singlefamily residence and constructing a new single-story, single-family residence with a basement and windowed pop-up room on the roof. Tony Crisafi and Haley Bareisa of Island Architects, designers of the new property, presented their proposal to the committee. Owners of the neighboring properties, who attended the meeting, raised concerns during the period for public comment. One concern was whether the new property would block ocean views. Another neighbor was worried that

residents of the property would be able to see into his home if built as proposed. Committee members raised concerns about the architectural integrity and design. After much discussion, the motion was made that “Project should not be approved on the basis that it disrupts the architectural unity of the area [and] the east-side yard setback is not

in general conformance with the area.” The motion passed 3-1-4. n Other agenda items, including the Gaxiola Residence and Lambert Felice Residence, were postponed to another meeting. • The Gaxiola project would demolish the current one-story structure at 2414 Calle de Oro and build a
two-story five bedroom residence. The vote was postponed because many of the current committee members were not at the initial presentation, and needed more information. • Regarding the Lambert Felice residence at 2382 Via Capri Court, which proposes building an addition to the house and garage on the property, the committee had issues with the visibility of where the property meets the street. The permit committee reviews projects within the La Jolla Shores Planned District, and bases its decisions on the Planned District Ordinance. Recommendations are passed on to the La Jolla Community Planning Association and then sent to the City of San Diego. Meetings are held 4 p.m. the 4th Tuesdays at the La Jolla Recreation Center, 615 Prospect St. For more information, visit lajollacpa.org

Outraged planning group demands Scripps lop a story off MESOM building By Pat Sherman During its Oct. 4 meeting, La Jolla Community Planning Association (CPA) board members expressed anger, frustration and mistrust in response to a 40,000-squarefoot research laboratory currently under construction at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO). CPA board members said the $26.5 million project, SIO’s Marine Ecosystem Sensing, Observation and Modeling Laboratory (MESOM) off La Jolla Shores Drive, is being constructed at a height that is greater than what was initially presented by UC San Diego officials. During the meeting CPA board member and architect Laura Ducharme-Conboy presented a series of slides featuring photo renderings of the building as presented by UCSD in 2010 and 2011. The renderings were superimposed with photos of the ongoing construction, taken by Ducharme-Conboy at the same location to demonstrate how the construction exceeds the height level represented in the render-

Fielding the association’s questions, Brad Werdick, UCSD’s director of physical and community planning, conceded that the building’s height exceeds what was presented in the renderings. “There is a discrepancy between the height of the building that’s under construction and what was shown in the photo simulation,” Werdick said, maintaining UCSD architects “did the best that they could” to create photo simu-

lations from a 3D model. However, he said, “The original photo simulations never showed (that the building wouldn’t) block white-water or blue-water views.” “As we bring our next project forward, if you don’t believe or trust the university, ask for story poles,” Werdick said. “It was never our intent to mislead. … Moving forward, ask those questions. We’re fine if you want more information.” In approving a Coastal Development Permit for the project, the California Coastal Commission re-

quired mitigation measures to open up the view corridor in other areas. To comply, UCSD removed 28 eucalyptus and other non-native trees and is adding several coastal overlook points in the area that will be accessible to the public. As a further concession, UCSD is working in concert with the Coastal Commission to place a deed restriction on the property stating that all future building elevation will “not exceed the elevation of La Jolla Shores Drive,” Werdick said. CPA board member Jim Fitzgerald asked why there
was such a discrepancy in the project’s height and what was initially presented to the community. “Why didn’t they notice this when they started (construction),” Fitzgerald asked. “Why didn’t somebody say, ‘Wait, this isn’t what we said we were going to do.’ ” Fellow board member Phil Merten added, “With projects of this scale, and the kind of money that’s being spent, I think it’s horrible that professionals doing these things can’t do a better job depicting the building as its going to be — that’s assuming that there
wasn’t an attempt to mislead and make the building look lower than it actually is.” Werdick offered his own slide presentation, which also showed some discrepancy in the height of the current construction and the photo renderings. Werdick said formwork, temporary molds into which concrete is poured for the construction, rise 6 to 18 inches above the roofline, making the building appear higher than it will look once complete. UCSD planner Anu Delouri said that though the photo simulations were not accurate, the building elevation as presented in environmental documents and architectural drawings is accurate and drawn to scale. “I don’t even look at construction drawings,” said CPA board vice-president and development consultant, Joe LaCava, who is adept at reading them. Though LaCava said he does not favor the project, he conceded that the

He said the design is in accordance with the La Jolla Community Plan. “They built what our community plan told them to build and that kind of makes me sick,” LaCava said. “Why did we draw that community plan to look like that? … We probably could have changed it; we probably could have worked with them.” Asked what UCSD’s official position on the project is moving forward, Werdick responded, “We’re building a project according to what was permitted, both by the coastal commission, as well as an environmental document. I’m here to take arrows, but it’s (also) to understand how we can work better in the future. “There’s a high level of skepticism right now, which I can appreciate,” he said, “but that’s our position.” Board member Tim Lucas said he feels the public “got gamed.” “If we don’t have renderings that reflect the entire project, not just the most favorable viewpoint, we’re lost,” he said. “This thing is just too huge.”

La Jolla Community Planning Association Vice President Dan Courtney also pulled no punches, deeming the project “outrageous” and “disgusting,” given that UCSD is not required to contribute to community infrastructure to the extent other local development is. “The credibility is not there anymore,” he said. “We’ve done a lot of talking, but I think we need to take action. … We owe it to the community.” Noting that the City of San Diego ordered the developer of the Sunroad office tower to remove a story from its building (which was found to exceed Federal Aviation Administration height limits), Courtney proposed a similar request be made of UCSD. Courtney made a motion, which was seconded by Fitzgerald, to have the CPA’s president send a letter to the
UC Regents, the governor, the coastal commission, the state architect, San Diego Development Services, the mayor and UCSD’s chancellor requesting a reduction in height of the MESOM lab to conform with renderings presented to the community. The motion was approved 15-1-1 with LaCava abstaining and secretary Dan Allen opposed. “I think you’re beating a dead horse,” Allen said.

La Jolla Rotarians host District 1 City Council debate
By Pat Sherman Incumbent District 1 City Councilwoman Sherri Lightner and businessman and challenger Ray Ellis squared off again in La Jolla, this time during the Rotary Club of La Jolla’s weekly luncheon, Oct. 2 at La Valencia Hotel. The candidates conveyed the strongest disagreement on the $45 million Plaza de Panama project in Balboa Park, which is aimed at removing vehicles from the plaza by constructing a bypass expanse from the Cabrillo Bridge to a proposed 797-space parking garage behind the Organ Pavilion. Ellis, a Republican, has been a vocal supporter of the project, while Lightner, a Democrat, was the lone vote on the city council opposing it. Ellis, who serves on the Balboa Park Conservancy and previously served on the mayor-appointed Balboa Park Task Force, said the cash-strapped city cannot take on such large-scale civic projects without the assistance of the business community and philanthropists such as Qualcomm founder Irwin Jacobs, who is funding the project and has

endorsed Ellis’ candidacy. “With the Plaza de Panama, we are increasing park space, restoring the historical beauty of the plaza and increasing parking,” Ellis said. “This is a good project for San Diegans, and it takes some vision to see this thing come to fruition.” Though Lightner supports removing vehicles from the Plaza de Panama, she said she strongly opposes erecting a parking garage in the middle of the park. “It’s a violation of the original master plan for Balboa Park,” she said. “It is paying homage to the car, which may not be here for all that long, and it’s a 30-year
(financial) commitment on the part of the City of San Diego to pay a bond for that.” Lightner said visitors will not pay to park in the garage when there is free parking in other areas of the park and on adjacent neighborhood streets, where she predicts parking will become more congested. “This project as proposed has been denied by community planning groups, the Balboa Park Committee (which advises the mayor), and another park and rec board,” she said. Moderator Pat Stouffer noted that San Diego police officers will retain

their city pensions under Proposition B, while firefighters will move to a 401(k) retirement plan. Asked for their views on the disparate retirement scenario for San Diego’s public safety employees, Ellis said the change was a difficult decision, but “the right decision,” based on market forces and what is happening in other cities. “We have a tougher time recruiting police officers,” he said. “That’s why, to remain competitive, we have to keep them in a defined benefit program. “On the other hand,” he added, “There is a long, long line of
people … willing to step up and be firefighters.” Noting that lifeguards also will be transitioning to a 401(K) plan, Lightner said police officers were “very strong in negotiating” to retain pensions. The city has not filled vacant posts created over the past few years by officers leaving for other cities or opportunities, she said. “We may need to be making other adjustments to benefits in the near (future) so that we can actually attract and retain our police officers,” she said. “They’re waiting for the other shoe to fall … with respect to the pension reform that has been ongoing in the city.” If elected, Ellis said he hopes to further the discussion on retirement benefits. “We are seeing pensions just continue to escalate,” he said. “Mortality rates are dropping, people are living longer, and this is going to drive the pension costs up. There’s downward pressure on the assumed rate of return, which is the amount of money that the portfolio is gaining each year, and we need to come up with some alternatives.” Addressing the economic forecast in the city, Ellis took aim at San Diego’s newly formed Economic Development and Strategies committee, which is chaired by Lightner, stating that it has done “very little” since its

Lightner said the committee has received the “buy-in” of the city attorney, mayor and independent budget analyst. “Since we have started we have created the Connecting Careers (job training fair), where over 300 folks showed up to connect to careers. We have done the regulatory relief; we have implemented a Hire-A-Youth program. … If you look at the other committees and you see what they’ve done, you will be astounded at how much we’ve achieved.” Asked what their three key issues would be in their first 12 months in office, Ellis said: the “proper” implementation of Proposition B (pension reform); economic growth; and a review of the guidelines for the city’s managed competition program, which he said, “are somewhat favorable to the city employees. “We want to make it a level playing ground,” Ellis said, adding that the city “should be working with (the business community) to solve their problems, so they can be healthier and we can have more job creation in San Diego.” Lightner said her priorities would be to finish pension reform; implementing her comprehensive

overhaul of the city’s water conservation policies; and assuring that the Economic Development and Strategies committee releases information on a “strategic plan for the City of San Diego to grow jobs in this region, to close the job skills gap and to see how we’re going to partner with our institutions, private companies and the government going forward.” Asked if La Jolla should become its own city, independent of San Diego, neither candidate directly answered the question.
“That’s why I ran (for office); I thought the neighborhoods were being neglected by city hall,” said Lightner, an engineer who previously served as president of the La Jolla Town Council and La Jolla Shores Association. “I know right now Independent La Jolla is working on their feasibility studies. If it’s going to happen it needs to be a good deal for La Jollans, as well as for the city of San Diego. I don’t know what your alimony payment will be, but I have a feeling it might be up there.”

world, but it just doesn’t feel pristine. We are not trimming our trees; we are not taking care of our roads. … We need to have a strong councilperson, like myself, who is going to represent this district and be aggressive about the needs of this district and the communities within the district.”

Bird Rock council gives residents heads-up on five issues By Ashley Mackin At its Oct. 2 meeting, the Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) put the word out about several hot-button issues including Halloween, the median lights on La Jolla Boulevard, doggie bags and parking.

n Halloween and safety • With Halloween on the horizon, the BRCC asks residents to leave their lights on and answer the door to trick-or-treaters from 5 to 8 p.m. only. “What we’re trying to do is limit the trickor-treating, limit the craziness in the neighborhood. We’re asking that you — if you choose to – stop answering your door after 8 o’clock,” said the Neighborhood Watch chair, who requested anonymity. “It’s been very successful in the past. We probably have 85 to 90 percent of the residents thrilled with it and embraced it,” she said, adding San Diego Police Officers would be on bike patrol and volunteer officers would be patrolling in cars on Halloween. • The annual Haunted House will not be held this year due to a lack of volunteers. • However, the annual Halloween windowpainting event will be Oct. 20, when children can paint the storefront windows of approximately 20 businesses. Those who want to volunteer or have their kids participate, may contact the BRCC at info@BirdRock.com n Lights on the boulevard The median lights over La Jolla Boulevard
were officially lit on Oct. 1. “I just got a string of text messages, phone calls and e-mails from people [who were] just thrilled,” council president Joe Parker said of the action. BRCC member Barbara Dunbar spearheaded the project to get them lit after the sudden death of community volunteer George Sutton. “Barbara took over management of this project after we lost George Sutton and she has managed, in my opinion, every critical detail of this project and then some minute details none of us would consider. If it wasn’t for her capable management, I don’t think these lights would be on,” Parker said. Parker said Sutton will be honored during the light’s commissioning ceremony in November. n Maintenance projects completed On Oct. 1, construction was completed on the Brow Ditch project that will divert water away from the businesses located on the southeast corner of La Jolla Boulevard and Bird Rock Avenue when it rains.

accommodate people who don’t have a bag. The recommendation is: when residents walk their dogs, they should go prepared with their own bags.”
n Residents using too many dog bags The excessive number of dog clean-up bags being used by pet owners was discussed. “The good news is people are using the bags to clean up after their dogs. The bad news is they are using them in such a substantial capacity that we cannot afford to keep up with the pace and cost of stocking the bags,” Parker said. “The dog stations are there to
n No sidewalk parking People should not be parking their cars on the sidewalk in front of Lele’s Cleaners at 5617 La Jolla Blvd. Parker encouraged residents to remind drivers who park there that it is unlawful. — For more information on any of these issues, send an e-mail to: info@BirdRock.com

Scientists combine their efforts to understand the Cybercrime Mind
Research Report By LynnE Friedmann
F
ighting cyber threats requires more than just understanding technology: It requires understanding human nature. With the aid of a $10 million, five-year grant from the National Science Foundation, computer scientists at UC San Diego, UC Berkeley and George Mason University will map out the illicit activities taking place in the cybersecurity underworld in an effort to understand how the cybercriminal mind works. Among their goals, researchers will investigate how criminals make money, their economic and social relationships and the various ways they interact with victims and defenders to achieve their goals. This effort is an extension of a decade-long cybersecurity collaboration by the Berkeley and San Diego teams that recently made headlines for charting the complete “value chain” for e-mail spam. By studying both technical and economic relationships involved in making spam profitable, vulnerable links in the value chain were discovered. For example, the study identified just three banks as handling payments for 95 percent of spam-advertised products. This represents a “choke point” that might be more effectively targeted than trying to address technological issues involving spam. — More information at http://bit.ly/QjwzVZ BPA’s real threat is after metabolizing Bisphenol A (or BPA) is a synthetic chemical widely used in the making of plastic products and is linked to multiple human health threats.
When plastics degrade, BPA is released into the environment and routinely ingested. Because the chemical’s molecular structure is similar to that of estradiol, one of the human body’s three main estrogen hormones, there is concern that BPA can bind to estrogen receptors and in doing so disrupt the body’s endocrine system. Research from the UC San Diego School of Medicine suggests, however, it is the metabolic changes that take place after BPA is broken down inside the body that pose a greater health threat. A BPA metabolite – a molecule produced when BPA is metabolized — was shown to bind to the estrogen receptor much more strongly than BPA itself. — The study appears in journal PLOS ONE. News release at http://bit.ly/VBrGcr Elusive trigger of suckling behavior found Suckling by newborns is an example of an instinctive behavior hard-wired into the mammalian brain. But little is known about how suckling and other innate behaviors are coded in the brain, what triggers them, and what represses them. Now, a team led by biologists at The Scripps
Research Institute has solved the suckling-response mystery in mice. Researchers set out to find a specific odor (pheromone) trigger by systematically subtracting maternal fluids (milk, saliva, amniotic fluid) from the environment of newborn mice and hoping to see delay or elimination of first suckling. But it soon became clear that no single component of these fluids triggered the behavior. Instead the results indicated that a blend of chemicals specific for each mouse mother is required to initiate suckling. However, the mouse brain does not recognize this maternal “signature blend” automatically; it must learn the signature blend before it is able to suckle. This occurs during a narrow time window after birth. Key to all of this is the newborn’s main olfactory epithelium (MOE)—the principal smell organ, located within the nasal passages. In fact, without the MOE, newborn mice fail to suckle and die. — The findings appear in the journal Current Biology.

Evans’ sixth- and seventh-graders learn on iPads From Evans School Reports The Evans School in La Jolla unveiled the 4th generation iPad for its students in grades six and seven. “Class notes and assignments are all kept in folders on the iPad now and students are learning keyboarding as well,” said Rimma Breeze, IT administrator and parent of Augie and Julian Breeze. “In addition to the one-toone iPad rollout for our upper-school students, we also have a complete classroom set of iPads to be shared among our lowerschool students.

Slight declines in enrollment may impact La Jolla school budgets By Ashley Mackin Official enrollment for the San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) fell slightly behind what was predicted for the 2012–2013 school year in numbers released last week. With 115,499 K-12th grade students registered to attend SDUSD public schools, enrollment was short 497 students from last year’s count. An additional 17,401 students enrolled in charter schools. Bird Rock Elementary, La Jolla Elementary and Torrey Pines Elementary maintained high enrollment numbers, with each falling below projections by five students or less.

Since the missing 497 students account for approximately
1 percent, SDUSD met 99 percent of its predicted enrollment. “It’s important in these trying budget times that we have a stable and smooth opening of our schools,” Superintendent Bill Kowba said in the press release. “By coming very close to projections, it means we can
concentrate on putting the staff where they need to be.” By meeting projections, the district will avoid layoffs of classified staff, although some teaching and nonteaching employees may have to change schools due to enrollment fluctuations. La Jolla High School Principal Dana Shelburne
said he is concerned about the decrease in enrollment and what it means for staff and students. He said he originally anticipated a decline of 30 students, so the loss of an additional 24 could mean an adjustment to his staff. “I’m always concerned if I have to make an adjustment
because it’s a disruption for the students,” he said. Shelburne said he does not know yet what the adjustment would be. “We have to deal with the resources given to us by the state and these are difficult circumstances, “ he said. “All ships rise and fall on the same tide. As the state’s difficulties rise, so goes education.” SDUSD spokesman Jack Brandais said enrollment predictions are issued with the help of a demographer who studies housing trends, birth data and military activity. Brandais said the demographer looks at when those in Navy and Marine service move to the area in large numbers and when they leave. Even then, he said, it’s difficult to tell how many people are moving and with how many children.

hen Ron and Marg Bowers opened Bowers Jewelry on La Jolla’s Wall Street in 1946, 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 Jewelry, 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.

Robert Sunstein, DDS, works to make smiles big and bright
Dr. Robert Sunstein, DDS
By Marti Gacioch Orthodontist Robert Sunstein, DDS, has given La Jollans a lot to smile about for nearly 15 years. In his Eads Avenue offices, Sunstein, known as “the Sunny Smile Specialist,” provides a range of orthodontic treatments for both children and adults. “I have all state-of-the art equipment, whether it’s traditional braces, clear braces or Invisalign,” Sunstein said. “I use digital radiology, which has minimal radiation and allows everything to be done in my office.” Sunstein said that technology for orthodontics has evolved so rapidly over the past 10-15 years that right now the best quality techniques are available to accelerate a patient’s progress. “Two generations ago, braces took 4-5 years to do, but now I’m taking care of my patients in 6-12 months,” Sunstein said. Sunstein uses unique wires with superb elasticity (made of titanium
and other metal products) that allow him to use a prescription bracket. Sunstein’s ability to place the bracket where it’s needed, allows the wires to do gentle tooth movement that speeds up the treatment time. “I told kids coming in for treatment this summer that if they’re good, they’ll have a great smile by the end of next summer and have the braces off before school starts so they can show up at school with perfect, straight white teeth,” he said. Sunstein moved to La Jolla with his parents in 1982. He attended SDSU and UCLA where he earned his earned his doctorate of dental surgery. He went on to receive his Certificate of Orthodontics from New York’s Columbia University. “I considered La Jolla the most beautiful place I’d ever seen, and every time I came home, my dream was to have a boutique dental practice in La Jolla,” Sunstein said. He realized that
dream when he opened his Village practice nearly 15 years ago. “I love the people, the weather and the environment, and I love being able to drive from my house without getting on the freeway,” Sunstein said of his days. He is proud to be a longtime supporter of the Las Patronas’ Jewel Ball. “It’s been a great experience working with that group of people for more than 14 years, and some of my most memorable times while living in La Jolla,” Sunstein said. Sunstein recently assumed the Carmel Valley dental practice of his friend, Dr. Dennis Nappen, and divides his time between the two offices. — Reach Dr. Robert Sunstein at 7575 Eads Ave. Suite 101, La Jolla by calling (858) 459-3353, and in Carmel Valley at 12395 El Camino Real, Suite 309, by calling (858) 755-1551. lajollaorthodontist.com

La Jolla needs a recycling center … ASAP BY Marianne Zappella La Jolla Resident
Y
ah. File this under the “No good dead goes unpunished” section of “Best Intentions” ... Dateline La Jolla, six months ago give or take, a friend of mine was moving and the old tenant had left behind a huge pile of used batteries that were about to get tossed into the trash. “Wait! You can’t throw those into the trash! Let me take those to get recycled.” And so began my journey down the little road of recycling insanity … I went to Radio Shack; don’t they take back
Wrong decision to deny the year-round rope Poll after poll taken at Children’s Pool indicate that both visitors and locals like the seals and want them fully protected. After the San Diego City Council and the California Coastal Commission both voted to allow a simple yearround rope placement at the beach as a visual cue or “moment of pause” for visitors wanting to access the pool area, the Planning Commission repeated its earlier decision of two years ago and denied the non-pupping season rope placement. A Superior Court judge had questioned the “cursory” grounds for the first denial of the perpetual rope and remanded the issue back to the commissioners for reconsideration. The commissioners simply stated they had been presented no new evidence to change their minds! As of now, the rope will be erected only during the crucial pupping season, and as before, those willfully desiring to harass the seals may continue, aided by the city’s poorly defined “shared use” policy. No one in authority has shown a written definition of this policy. Very little “sharing” happens, even during pupping season, as vague signage advises people to “stay a safe distance” from the seals.” What exactly does that mean? Regarding the commission’s decision, we question how the year-round rope does not conform to the La Jolla Local Coastal Plan while a seasonal rope does? We also question why the Planning Commission has the binding authority to reverse decisions made by our duly elected district representatives on the City Council and plan to challenge the City Attorney’s office on this objectionable policy. Ellen Shively La Jolla Friends of the Seals
Wrong decision to deny the year-round rope, II Regarding the year-round seal rope at Seal Beach, the La Jolla planning group has no jurisdiction over the beach; it is under the California Coastal Commission for all the public. The LJ planning group had no right to appeal the approved year-round rope to the city planning commission, a lower board, when two higher boards, the city council and the coastal commission, approved the year-round rope. The issue is not the seals nor access to the beach, it is parking; rich La Jolla residents are
Guest Commentary batteries? I went to Home Depot; aren’t they supposed to take back batteries? I went to a different Radio Shack; maybe this one would take back the batteries. No, No, No. Flash-forward six months, still lugging around three shoe boxes worth of batteries that have been shifting and rockin’ and a rollin’ in my trunk of best intentions (weighing a ton and probably contributing to a terrible environmental externality in terms of gas mileage) but which have not yet found a willing taker. Arghh! I need to get rid of these! I do what even a reasonable idiot should have done six months ago and get on the Internet to
Our Readers write paying ruffian spearfishermen to illegally flush the seals to flush the tourists parking. La Jolla needs to make a parking lot/structure available to tourists to park and view the seals, not harassing residents out of their parking spaces in the adjoining neighborhood. The Federal Ranger needs to start ticketing the seal harassers who are flushing the seals from the beach at 6 a.m., causing them to go to La Jolla Cove where people are swimming. The City Council needs to immediately accept the lifeguard plan for boulders, but permanently with 6-foot access, and do it now before the seals flush to any more adjoining beaches than La Jolla Cove. Eric Haslund is dreaming if he thinks seals and people can share a beach; the city needs to put a very large sign on the beach that the water is NOT safe for swimming; and to stay 50 feet from the seals, at least on the breakwater, which also needs repair, it’s a liability. As I told the planning commission and city council, the findings for enjoyment, health, safety and access all favor giving people enjoyment of the seals, health and safety for the seals and access to viewing the seals with a yearround rope. Ellen Browning Scripps protected Torrey Pines trees, surely she would also want to protect the seals. Valerie Sanfilippo Service Employees, Sierra Club, San Diego
Getting it straight I need to make a slight correction to the Oct. 4 article “‘Biographer to share Jimi Hendrix ‘experience’.” I am sure that the word “music” was left out of the sentence, “he couldn’t read or write (music).” Jimi was a wonderful writer. He had books of writings. He wrote almost every day and also had the most beautiful handwriting ... and he loved to read, whenever I saw him he had a book, and he always traveled with a few books. Most definitely Jimi could read and write! Melinda Merryweather La Jolla

finally discover a small recycling center in Kearny Mesa that will take the batteries! Hallelujah! When I get there, happy as can be to finally do my part for the environment, they weigh the boxes and announce that my total will be $17. Sigh. “Will that be on your credit card?” Huh? Recycling should be made easy. We need to set up more local recycling opportunities in La Jolla. Are you going to recycle your batteries? It’s a long drive to Kearny Mesa, especially if your car’s air conditioner doesn’t work. Let’s get on this La Jolla Town Council. Next week I will write to you about my attempt to clean up the trash on the entrance to the I-5 off La Jolla Parkway. Until then ... I’m still a dreamer...
Matibag for bringing life, laughter, music, dancing and festivities to our Village! Our third and most successful Haute La Jolla Nights was held on Sept. 15. The addition of the Dutch social bicycle was a hit. Attendees hopped aboard to enjoy the free ride when they were not dancing on the sidewalks! It was so refreshing to see our shops and restaurants bustling with activity! Julie and Joe worked tirelessly to bring this event to our Village in a very short period of time. They presented the concept to our board earlier this year and pulled it off! Thanks, too, to all the merchants and galleries for your participation and staying open late. The La Jolla Village Merchants Association is working hard for the betterment of our community! Claudette Berwin Gallery Properties
Neighbor’s RV protest letter was in poor taste I recently was shown the letter featured in your “Our Readers Write” section. I am the owner of the pictured RV and would just like to correct a few things. This RV has been parked in our driveway for significantly less than a year. Although it is true that we have taken it on one trip so far, we will be moving it within the next month. The house is not rented to “multiple families” as mentioned. We have also received many compliments from neighbors on the street who are familiar with the Burning Man art project, in which this trailer takes part. We have yet to hear anything but positive feedback in person. Your organization should be insulted that someone took advantage of your newspaper to spread neighborhood gossip. The writer is obviously aware that we live in the house; the trailer is situated entirely on our property (within what I understand to be legal limits and in compliance with neighborhood rules). I think what we need to take away from this recent publication is that neighbors should try to take the mature and classy route of speaking with the person causing their problem before taking more extreme action. Even a note posted to our door would have sufficed in my mind, but going the middle-school bully route and gossiping around town first does nothing but breed ill will and a negative environment.

OBITUARIES
Edward George Wickes Jr. 1923 – 2012
Edward G. Wickes Jr. died peacefully at home in Walnut Creek, CA, on September 27, 2012, at the age of 89. Ed was born on April 1, 1923, in Buffalo, NY, to Marie Haungs and Edward G. Wickes Sr. He moved as a young boy with his family to San Bernardino, CA, and attended San Bernardino Junior College before transferring to UC Berkeley in 1941 where he was a member of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity. At Cal he met Mary J. Ward of Berkeley, who was a Gamma Phi, and they married in December 1942 shortly after his induction into the U.S. Army. He served in WW II with the 14th Troop Carrier Squadron in Europe as a C-47 pilot and his missions included dropping paratroopers in the Market Garden and Varsity (Rhine) operations. Ed graduated from UC Berkeley after the war and rejoined the U.S. Air Force. During his career, Ed was a B-47 pilot stationed at several bases including SAC Headquarters in Omaha, NE. He also received an MS at Purdue and worked on the Minuteman missile program at Vandenberg AFB. He retired in 1964 as a Lt. Colonel, settling in La Jolla, and spent several years in the aerospace industry. A trip to upstate NY to his family’s roots ignited a passion for genealogy that became his avocation for the rest of his life. Ed and Mary moved to Saunderstown, RI, for the next decade, devoting much time to tracing their family lines in New England and Europe. Ed was an active member of the Mayflower Society, SAR, Society of the Cincinnati and Founders and Patriots. Returning to California, they divided their time between Rossmoor and La Jolla, where Mary died in 2001. Ed met Nancy Himmelright Hoyt of
Berkeley in the genealogy library in Salt Lake City in 2003 and they were married in 2004.

As the war ended, the couple lived in Coronado, falling in love with the beauty of San Diego County and welcoming their first child. After the war, the Murphy’s settled on Long Island and raised four children. Mrs. Murphy pursued hobbies in painting and gardening while her husband worked in finance, rising to president of the Lincoln Savings Bank in Brooklyn. Intent on retiring in California, they bought a home in Coronado in 1969, but Mr. Murphy passed away in 1971. Over the next 41 years, Mrs. Murphy moved from New York to Coronado, La Jolla, Elkhart, IN, Seattle, Lake Forest, IL; and Rhinebeck, NY, to be near her children, but kept returning to her beloved La Jolla. She enjoyed shopping and dining in the village, often calling her children to share details of a rare find or a great meal. She will be remembered by her neighbors at Chateau La Jolla for her friendly smile and stylish attire. Mrs. Murphy is survived by two daughters, Joan Joanna J. Murphy I.

disease. Herb was born in New York, NY, on October 5, 1928, and spent the majority of his childhood in New York and Pennsylvania. He attended Haverford College and Yale University Drama School and Law School, interrupted by two years of service in the United States Army stationed in Germany. Herb and his wife, MarieLouise, raised three sons in Manhasset, NY, where they lived until moving to La Jolla in 2006. In his 54-year career as an intellectual property attorney and artist representative, Herb became a recognized expert in the field. He started his career at Sam Fox Music Publishing Company, moved on to CBS and then to Capitol Records. In the mid-70s he joined the Manhattan-based firm, International Creative Management (ICM). Over the years Herb handled many well-known artists, writers and celebrities, one of whom was Ted Geisel. Because of his many trips to La Jolla in the course of representing Dr. Seuss Enterprises Herb decided to semi-retire here, continuing that relationship until he was hospitalized just a few weeks ago. Herb was known as a gifted raconteur with an amazing breadth of knowledge and retention of facts in areas as diverse as baseball and opera. One could invariably count on Herb to come up with that piece of trivia which escaped everyone else’s memory. He was the veritable definition of a gentleman and a scholar. At the top of everyone’s guest list, he would consistently regale his friends with incredible yet true tales of his experiences with the literati and some lesser known but no less humorous acquaintances. Our gatherings won’t be the same without Herb. The void will be painfully evident. Herbert Cheyette will be greatly missed. Herb is survived by his wife, Marie-Louise; brother, Fred Cheyette of Amherst, MA; son, Philippe Cheyette of Norwalk, CT; son and daughter-in-law, Drs.

to. During her memorable career, Gloria focused on bringing information to San Diego about all things political or of special interest to the community. Along with seven Emmys, five Golden Mikes, and two Gracies, Gloria received awards and honors from the California Teachers Association, California Women in Government, the Society for Professional Journalists, and the San Diego Bar Association, among many others. She also served as president of both Charter 100 and the San Diego Press Club, which gave her its Harold Keen Award for Excellence in Journalism. She was recognized as a Living Legacy by the Women’s International Center, and was installed in the KPBS Hall of Fame in 2011. Born Elaine Gloria Stern, she grew up as the only child of a single, strong mother, Ethel Gold Stern, who recently died at 102. Gloria was the first in her family to attend college, earning her bachelor’s degree from Brooklyn College, which later recognized her with a Lifetime Achievement Award. She did graduate work in English at New York University and earned her Master’s Degree in English from Syracuse University. She is survived by her husband, William Snyder, with whom she lived in La Jolla; two grown sons, Steve and Brad (Dyana); and two grandchildren. A memorial service will be announced at a future date.

Post office task force seeks donations, input The La Jolla Historical Society’s Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force needs to raise $1,200 to cover an application fee required by the City of San Diego to have the threatened Wall Street post office added to San Diego’s Register of Designated Historical Resources. Task force members will be collecting donations from 10 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Oct. 13, in front of the post office at 1140 Wall St. during the La Jolla Art & Wine Festival. The designation will provide a layer of protection for the building and its WPA-era Belle Baranceanu mural. The United States Postal Service announced at the beginning of the year that it would be selling the 1935 building and relocating services to an alternate location. The task force also will be conducting a survey of citizens’ use of and need for the Wall Street post office on Saturday. The data will be presented to Congressman Darrell Issa, chair of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. For more information, visit savelajollapostoffice.org

Thanks to all who support the library Here’s a happy correction/addition to your wonderful story in the Oct. 4 issue on the plein-air exhibit at the library ... Not only did Will Bowen write an over-the-top review of our recently opened show, “Fresh Paint,” at the La Jolla Library Art Gallery, his art background and appreciation is evident in the artist interviews and commentary. We also appreciated his description of our great opening reception! We wish to clarify one quote and share our gratitude with Cris at Amici’s pizza on Prospect: “the reception food was a delight as well, with black-shirted waiters carrying trays of designer pizza for sampling.” Amici’s not only said, “We’d be happy to support the library with food,” they surprised us by offering to help serve and continue bringing in fresh pizza as the

Cash needed for police storefront repairs The La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) and Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) have joined forces to help repair a shoddy police storefront used by officers who patrol La Jolla, Pacific Beach and Clairemont. The storefront needs about $35,000 in cash and labor for painting and repairs to bathrooms, flooring, furniture and window coverings, report project co-chairs Nancy Gardner (LJTC) and Michelle Fulks (BRCC). La Jolla-based Dewhurst & Associates construction is onboard as a contributor to the project. The storefront serves as a spot for officers to write reports and take breaks, and also houses the police’s homeless outreach unit and retired senior volunteer patrol officers. As the city and state grapple with finances, discretionary funding for repairs and upgrades to storefronts has
become nonexistent. “I don’t think you can ever do enough to give back to the people who keep us safe,” Gardner said. “It’s something citizens have to do since the city doesn’t have the money.” “It’s a disgrace that our police officers have to use bathrooms in that condition,” Fulks added. “I think our police officers deserve at least a place that is clean and dry to get off of the streets and out of their cars.” n Donations are tax deductible.

Time for solutions to the ‘throat’ traffic
I read with great interest Philip Harris’ letter in the Aug. 30 La Jolla Light regarding the North/South bridge on La Jolla Scenic Drive. I live on the same by-pass street that Mr. Harris lives on, and so far no solutions
have solved the traffic backup on La Jolla Parkway caused by the “throat” intersection. Not only does the traffic backup discourage people coming to La Jolla for business and shopping, it is also an unsettling entrance to La Jolla. Two options to alleviate the problem could be considered. One is the previously mentioned bridge over La Jolla Parkway at La Jolla Scenic Drive. A second solution might be a “flyover” bridge that allows cars to cross the intersection of La Jolla Parkway, Torrey Pines Road and come down beyond La Jolla Shores. This would keep cars continuously moving up Torrey Pines without stopping for the lights at the “throat” intersection. It is time for the city engineers to consider these options or others they may develop. Byron Cole La Jolla

Knights soak Vikings in boys water polo match
Bishop’s Senior Viktor Wrobel (No. 8) prepares to shoot for a goal against La Jolla High School goalkeeper Matt Allen and some defenders. PHOTOS By Ashley Mackin By Ashley Mackin he La Jolla High School Vikings fell 6-8 against the Bishop’s School Knights at the Boys Varsity Water Polo game 3 p.m. Oct. 5. Bishop’s coach Jim Fales led the team to its sixth victory this season. The Vikings’ loss, said Coach Tom Atwell, split the team’s season so far with two wins and two losses.

Torreys volleyball teams strike hard By Peter Ogle The La Jolla Country Day Torreys volleyball teams had a busy week and enjoyed a lot of success. Last Tuesday the girls played a league game against Tri-City Christian. After beating them in five games, the Torreys came away with a 3-0 victory. Wednesday was another league game against Santa Fe Christian. The two teams split the first two games, with each team getting a hard fought victory. Santa Fe went on to win the next two to win the match. The team began the Scripps Ranch Tournament on Oct. 5
with three wins. The Torreys played Calexico, Coronado, and Westview. Saturday, Oct. 6 the girls played Bishops and lost a very tight match 2-1. Escondido was next to see who would go back to the semi-finals and the Torreys won 2-0. It was Westview again in the semis, and the team lost 2-1 to end their tourney. Sheridan Rice, Arela Williams, and Alexandra Bolotin were the hitting stars. Annie Hasselmann did the majority of the setting and libero Cassidy Rooke was great on defense. Another tough challenge comes this weekend with the Torrey Pines tourney.

Murugi Kenyatta works to link La Jollan women with those of East Africa Murugi Kenyatta will be recognized for her advocacy work with San Diego’s Somali and East African refugee population at the OceanLeaf Awards Celebration Oct. 17. Born and raised in Kenya, she said she witnessed the power of women and the role they played in strengthening families and improving communities in East Africa. As a member of the La Jolla Golden Triangle Rotary Club, Kenyatta is involved in two Rotaryfunded projects that benefit the East African Murugi community in San Diego Kenyatta — Project Refuge (under the auspices of the Somali Family Services) and the Somali Women Sewing Center (under the auspices of Horn of Africa). She also brings her experience and passion to the mission of the Foundation for Women, where she serves as the community liaison and a critical connection between the organization and the communities it serves in San Diego. What brought you to La Jolla? For the last three years I have worked for the Foundation for Women (FFW), an organization that works to empower underserved women in San Diego and Liberia by providing them with microloans, training and business support so that they can start and build sustainable livelihoods. FFW was founded by Deborah Lindholm, a La Jollan and Rotarian. What might you add, substract or improve in the area? La Jolla is one of the most picturesque communities. It is a beautiful area that is filled with abundance. It would be impossible for me to add or subtract anything from it. Who or what inspires you? The women that we serve in San Diego are a great inspiration. They are resilient, passionate and very hardworking. It is wonderful to see them seize the opportunities provided to them and transform their lives, families and communities. I am truly inspired by women like microentrepreneur Jaimi Lutz, who has used the microloans and training from FFW to start and build a viable business. Jaimi makes and sells vegan cookies while raising two young children. She attends FFW’s weekly meetings, picks up her children from school, and makes time to

The Facts About Deputy District Attorney Elizabeth Renner defines bullying during a recent presentation on the topic in Rancho Bernardo.
Bullying District attorney’s office holds discussions to end the scourge
PHOTOS BY Catherine Ivey Lee
By Catherine Ivey Lee preading rumors. Hitting, kicking and pushing. Sending cruel texts. Posting embarrassing photos of someone else. Every day, across the country, bullies torment children with such cruelty. Nationally, one out of every four children ages 12-18 has been bullied. Millions of students suffer low-self esteem, poor grades, anxiety and depression. For some, the pain proves too much. Two years ago, 13-year-old Seth Walsh from Tehachapi, Calif., hung himself from a tree in his backyard after being repeatedly bullied. Last year, bullied teens in more than five states also committed suicide. In response to growing concerns, San Diego law enforcement officials are working to educate the public about the issue. In La Jolla, schools and students are fighting to create campus atmospheres that discourage bullies and bullying. “Bullying is not okay,” Deputy District Attorney Elizabeth Renner told an audience of students, parents, police officers and teachers at a recent presentation sponsored by the Rancho Bernardo Community Council. Renner, who prosecutes juvenile cases and works on school violence issues, said her office has a two-month backlog on such talks. Combating bullying starts with understanding it and reporting it, Renner said. Bullying is more than just roughhousing, in which individuals don’t intend to injure each other. Bullying is repeated aggressive behavior
S
by one or more persons toward another with the intent to harm him or her. There must also be an imbalance in power between the individuals involved, with the bully or bullies using size, popularity or strength to dominate or intimidate the other. Direct bullying takes place face to face, such as when victims are assaulted, threatened, intentionally excluded, vilified or have property stolen or vandalized. Often physical in nature, this type of bullying more frequently involves boys.
Cyberbullying involves attacks using technology such as cell phones, computers, or social media sites to spread rumors, post humiliating photos and comments or to send cruel texts or e-mails. Perhaps due to its more social medium, girls are more likely to be engaged in cyberbullying, Renner said. Cyberbullying, which many believe is on the rise, is considered particularly heinous because it can reach victims at all hours.
SEE BULLYING, B7
Students raise their hands in response to being asked if they had ever witnessed or experienced bullying. The question was part of a presentation on the topic by the San Diego County District Attorney’s office. The audience included students, parents, police officers, teachers and members of a Girl Scout Troop.

Feminist Gloria Steinem:
‘We’ve come a huge distance, but we still have a long way to go’ By Susan DeMaggio On July 10, 1971, Gloria Steinem, along with other feminist leaders, including Betty Friedan, Myrlie Evers, Shirley Chisholm and Bella Abzug, founded the National Women’s Political Caucus and delivered her memorable “Address to the Women of America,” which launched the Feminist Movement: “This is no simple reform. It really is a revolution. Sex and race because they are easy, visible differences have been the primary ways of organizing human beings into superior and inferior groups, and into the cheap labor on which this system still depends. We are talking about a society in which there will be no roles other than those chosen, or those earned. We are really talking about Humanism.”

The Godfather keeps no secrets from those who love Italian dishes By Kelley Carlson ust 100 feet outside The Godfather restaurant, in San Diego’s Kearny Mesa neighborhood, drivers zip along busy Clairemont Mesa Boulevard en route to work or to shop, day and night; a modernday suburbia to be sure. But inside the Italian establishment, it’s as if time has stood still. Guests are transported back to the “Old World mob” days, in an environment that almost seems secretive with its minimal lighting and candles. The partitioned, plush red booths along the dark-paneled walls in the dining room offer plenty of privacy; there are also centrally located white-andred clothed tables that can accommodate two or more people. Casually social patrons may opt for the bar, where they can gather on stools or in booths and chat, or watch various programming on the TV. At the front of the restaurant, from 6 p.m. to close Thursday through Saturday, pianist Scott Skinner — who has been at The Godfather for 34 years — plays a mix of music and takes requests. When he’s not tickling the ivories, music by Rat Pack members such as Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin can be heard in the background. For further proof that time doesn’t change at The Godfather: Its hours of operation have been the same since it opened in 1974. Though the restaurant is elegant -- made even more obvious by the fact that the waiters wear full tuxes — it’s not pretentious, said Anthony Balistreri, who co-owns the restaurant with his parents, Isidoro and Maria Balistreri. “It’s timeless ... from the menu to the decor to the service,” Anthony Balistreri added. One of the favored entrees tends to be the Veal Chop, with a port wine demi-glace and porcini mushrooms. Other signature dishes include the Filet Mignon Alla Godfather, a steak cut of beef that is butterflied with prosciutto, mozzarella, mushrooms, marinara and Barolo wine; Speciale Dello Chef Isidoro, consisting of seasoned and breaded veal stuffed with prosciutto, mozzarella,
J The dimly-lit dining room features intimate booths and tables. A framed image of actor Marlon Brando from ‘The Godfather’ films is prominently displayed.
Penne Alla Puttanesca consists of penne pasta in tomato sauce with olives, capers, basil, olive oil, Parmesan cheese and oregano.
Patrons can relax and socialize in the bar.

FROM BULLYING, B1 “It’s bullying that’s almost 24/7,” Renner said. “It’s really hard to get away from.” Because victims are often reluctant to speak up — only one in three is likely to tell an adult what is going on — experts advise parents and teachers to be alert to unexplained injuries, attempts to avoid school, a sudden loss of friends or changed behavior after using technology or social media. Talk of suicide should be taken seriously. Parents should report bullying to school officials, Renner said, and keep records of each incident. Printing offensive texts, e-mails or images can aide law enforcement officials who might otherwise need warrants to access such information, she said. She also encouraged parents to discuss appropriate technology use with children, to know passwords and to “trust but verify” online activity. “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had parents tell me, ‘My child would never post something like that,’” only to be shocked when Renner pulled out evidence to the contrary. She urged students to be proactive bystanders, a relatively new tactic in combating bullying. “If you see someone being cyberbullied, tell someone,” she said.
Did you know? ■ O ctober is National Bullying Prevention Month ■ B ullying can affect everyone; bullies pick on socially isolated students, popular students and everyone in between. ■ C hildren with special needs or who are perceived as different — whether because of their race, religion, size or even status as newcomers to a school —are at a higher risk for being bullied. ■ M ore at stopbullying.gov That approach proved successful recently at La Jolla High School. When photos of several students, along with mean comments, appeared online, members of a student club known as V.A.C.H.I. (Voices Against Cruelty, Hatred and Intolerance) voiced their disapproval and disgust. The images quickly disappeared, according to club president Katie Harmeyer. “We’re trying to teach
every student to take a stand,” she said. School Principal Dana Shelburne credits groups like V.A.C.H.I., which will hold a “Week Without Name Calling” in January, assemblies and a student mentor program with creating an atmosphere that discourages bullying. “We talk about the idea that we come together as a family for 6-8 hours a day and it needs to be a safe environment for everyone,” he said. Schools are also urging students to “think before they click.” At The Children’s School, Technology Director Jesse Brand reminds middle-schoolers to act in cyberspace just as they would elsewhere. “We talk about what it means to be a good friend and to be respectful and how the computer is not a place where the rules don’t apply,” Brand said. Students at Muirlands Middle School talk about bullying and making positive choices in class discussions and are rewarded for being “respectful, responsible and academic” as part of a school campaign, according to Vice Principal Jeffrey Luna. In December, students will attend an assembly on gossip, rumors and cyber bullying.
Lecture series will explore cantorial music The Congregation Beth El of La Jolla will present a free, three-part series on Jewish Spiritual Cantorial Music, (Chazanut) 7-9 p.m. Tuesdays, Oct. 16, 23 and 30 at Jacobs Community Hall, 8600 Gilman Drive. The public program will feature audio and video presentations of world famous cantors with descriptive content, commentary and interpretation by a panel. There will be a Q&A session after each presentation and refreshments will be served. Session 1 will explore the history and developent of cantorial music. Session 2 will look at its golden age/classical period. Session 3 will examine modern cantorial music. Organizers said cantorial music demonstrates the essence of prayer when words and music combine to reach the depths of the soul. To register, visit cbe.org or call (858) 452-1734.

The Klines make a fine, funny art of dining out
Debby and Larry Kline display their new book at the opening reception of their Athenaeum show.
By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt When you were a schoolkid, did your parents ever tell you: Don’t play with your food? Debby and Larry Kline started doing just that in art school, back in the 1980s, and it led them into a very successful career. An exhibit of some of the pieces they’ve created extemporaneously on restaurant tabletops opened at the Athenaeum Sept. 28. “The Klines: Dinner and a Movie” may be the most fun you’ll have at an art show this year. The opening reception marked the debut of their book, hot off the presses, titled “Dinner with the Klines.” The dinner plate on the cover is their new DVD, with moving pictures of their work. The book tells the stories behind the pieces, and the movie is part of the Athenaeum show. At dinner, the Klines don’t bring anything to the table but themselves and their talent for improvisation. No adhesives, no scissors, no tools.
Larry and Carol Gartner, Ann Craig and Bob Black are members of the Athenaeum Board. Photos by Maurice Hewitt
“Each piece is a direct response to what we find in the restaurant,” Larry said. “We’re architects too,” Debby added. “The pieces have to balance.” The couple’s collaborative style shows in their conversation. They riff off each other, like jazz musicians. HE: “The thing that’s magic for us is those cheap napkin rings with glue on the inside.” SHE: “We could build a universe with them!” The Klines have done larger, more serious works, like their Jerusalem dome
made of mud bricks shaped like gas-guzzling vans; paper tiger tanks, in a pentagon formation; and the selfdestructing “Peaces.” “We pose provocative questions, challenge preconceptions and generally screw with context to make a point,” they wrote in their online artists’ statement. “Humor softens the blow.” Even their “Dinner” pieces have a point to make. HE: “We think about the amount of waste. Just about everything we use would be thrown out.” SHE: “Except we’re saving
Rancho Bernardo
it all!” The original pieces are sculptures; some are on view at the Athenaeum. But mostly what we see are the photos of their finished works. HE: “We shoot our own photos.” SHE: “With a point-andshoot Olympus. The staging is important. Sometimes people are disappointed when they see the original pieces, how small they are.” Staging IS important. A clever close-up turns saltand-pepper shakers into

How do the restaurant workers respond to the Klines? HE: “At first we can see they’re thinking about asking us to leave. Then they get into it, and start bringing us stuff.” SHE: “It becomes public art, in a sense. It brings art to people who never go to museums.” Do the two of them always come up with a good finished piece? HE: “It’s always a grand experiment. Nine times out of ten it seems like nothing will emerge, but at the last minute it does.” Sometimes, the Klines say, there are miracles, like the “Virgin of Guadalupe Chipotle,” an aluminum-foil food tray that started out as Angelina Jolie’s lips. HE: “And Elvis—that was a verifiable miracle. We spilled the ketchup and there it was. The staff wanted to keep it, but we persuaded them to sell it to us.” SHE: “It was a glass plate, not paper or plastic.” HE: “They finally gave us a bill, for $2.16.”

Even the fish is funny in ‘Mistakes Were Made’ If you go ■ What: ‘Mistakes Were Made’ ■ When: Matinees, evenings to Oct. 21
Let’s Review
■ Where: Cygnet Theatre, 4040 Twiggs St. in Old Town
By diana Saenger
■ Tickets: $29-$54

■ Box Office: (619) 337-1525
ell staged, short, and thoroughly entertaining, “Mistakes Were Made” is a delightful night at the theater. The first thing patrons will relate to when taking their seats for Cygnet Theatre’s West Coast premiere of the comedy is the set. It features a cluttered desk, papers strewn across the floor, and boxes of stuff in corners that resemble our own offices and reminds us of how overworked we all are. But that’s an understatement for Felix Artifex, a theatrical agent who has made so many commitments he can’t keep that he’s in deep trouble.
■ Website: cygnettheatre.com First, he’s working with Playwright Steven and telling him on the phone how much he likes and wants to produce his new play. While on another line at the same time, Felix is courting actor Johnny, who is interested in the play — but only if most of it is rewritten to his specifications. Felix entices him by saying, “I know this could be your ‘Street Car.’” Felix puts each one on hold as he appeases the other with what he wants to
hear. But that’s the least of Felix’s problems. His secretary, Esther (Jacque Wilke), is screening calls to be answered every few minutes. To help finance a play about the French Revolution, titled “Mistakes Were Made,” Felix makes a deal with financers in the Middle East. When he learns through one of the calls that 1,000 sheep with trucks and drivers have been shanghaied because monies promised were not delivered, Felix begins to unravel. He’s told all the sheep may die. No stranger to local theatergoers, Phil Johnson (“Les Miserables,” “Putnam County Spelling Bee”) takes on the zany character of Felix. He rants, he screams … but always with humor, fidgeting like a kindergartener on his first day at school. From his constant flailing back in his chair to his curled-up fingers as if he’s containing a punch for someone, there isn’t a body part that Johnson doesn’t bring into play. Even the way Felix pops
Felix (Phil Johnson) uses his pet fish as a therapist in Cygnet Theatre’s West Coast premiere of ‘Mistakes Were Made.’ Daren Scott another pill from a prescription bottle while putting someone else on hold is funny. As the pressure increases with each phone call, even banging the phone on the table doesn’t help. He’s drowning and no one is buying what he’s offering. He tells one of his callers,
“Life is unbearable and short and everyone wants to be entertained.” The line seems thrown in, but gets laughs just by the way Johnson delivers it. Most amusing is Felix’s therapy session with a large goldfish in a tank, which he nervously feeds while he
talks. Apparently, he’s not supposed to feed the fish as reminded by Esther every minute. One of the funniest moments comes when Felix takes out his frustration with a Hollywood starlet on a small rag doll. You must see it to believe it.

‘Words By Ira Gershwin’ to have world premiere at North Coast Rep By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt When you think of a Gershwin tune, like “I Got Rhythm,” you probably think of the tune as being the song. But a song is not a song without lyrics, and George Gershwin’s older brother, Ira, was responsible for some of the best. “Words By,” a world premiere about Ira Gershwin that opens at North Coast Repertory Theatre Oct. 20, is giving the unsung brother a chance to be heard. There’s a classic wordsand-music story about Mrs. Jerome Kern and Mrs. Oscar Hammerstein at a party where someone says: Mrs. Kern’s husband wrote ‘Ol’ Man River.’ Mrs. Hammerstein cuts in with: “Her husband wrote ‘Dah-dah DEE-dah.’ MY husband wrote ‘Ol’ Man River!’ ” Ira Gershwin had a gift for making melodies sing. George was the mover and shaker, already a hit-maker at age 20 with “Swanee” (words by Irving Caesar, sung by Al Jolson), but Ira and he became an unbeatable team in 1924, starting with “Lady Be Good,” the Broadway musical that introduced Fred and Adele Astaire and “Fascinatin’ Rhythm.” And they kept at it until George’s untimely death in 1937, at age 38. Though devastated by the loss of his brother, Ira lived almost 50 years longer, and went on to write with other composers, like Harold Arlen. Remember the film “A Star is Born,” where Judy Garland sings “The Man That Got Away”? Words by Ira Gershwin. “Words By” was conceived and written by Joe Vass, a Minnesota music man who thought it was time for a companion piece to his tribute to George, “The Soul of Gershwin,” which played at the (now-defunct) Coconut Grove Playhouse in Florida. The producer there, who had worked with NCRT director David Ellenstein, suggested that “Words By” and NCRT might be a perfect match. What could have been a one-man show turned out to be one man, two singers,
Nicholas Mongiardo-Cooper, Andrew Ableson, Meghan Andrews and Joe Vass will perform in ‘Words By,’ opening Oct. 20. Maurice Hewitt
If you go ■ What: ‘Words By: Ira Gershwin & the Great American Songbook’ ■ When: Matinees, evenings Oct. 20-Nov. 11 ■ Where: North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach ■ Tickets: From $51 ■ Box Office: (858) 481-1055 ■ Website: northcoastrep.org and a four-man band, including playwright/pianist Vass. “Ira talks to the audience and the singers help him tell his story,” Vass said. “And the band, onstage all the time, is a character, too.” To play that character, Vass assembled some wellknown local musicians: Gunnar Biggs (Bass), Bob Boss (Guitar), and Duncan Moore (Drums). Ellenstein brought in Nicholas Mongiardo-Cooper, a transplanted New Yorker now based in Los Angeles, to play Ira; this is his first appearance at NCRT. His partners in rhyme and music are singer-songwriter Meghan Andrews, another LA-based New Yorker, who gave a concert here two years ago, and London-born actor/ singer Andrew Ableson, who
has appeared in two previous shows at NCRT. All three come from musical families: Nick’s mother is an opera singer who also performed American Songbook classics; his father is a harpsichordist. Meghan’s parents — a jazz singer and a composer — met as part of Fred Waring’s band. Andrew’s dad was a famous crooner, known as “the English Tony Bennett.” All three have impressive credits, and grew up knowing and loving Gershwin songs. Probably the best-known, most-performed Gershwin song is “Summertime,” but Ira did not write that one, though he received co-credit for the lyrics in “Porgy and Bess” and surely helped refine them. In fact, DuBose Heyward, who wrote both the libretto and the novel on which the opera was based, did most of the lyrics, with the exception of “It Ain’t Necessarily So,” which is all Ira. That still leaves dozens of other huge hits to consider, like “Strike up the Band,” “The Man I Love,” “’S Wonderful,” “Let’s Call The Whole Thing Off” and “Someone to Watch Over Me.” If you love words and music, don’t miss “Words By,” a time-trip through the golden age of American song. If it’s a hit, it will play all over the country. And you can say you saw and heard it here first.

In the Battle of the Bulge, slow and steady wins the diet race
Kitchen Shrink By Catharine L. Kaufman â&#x20AC;&#x153;The bestsellers are cookbooks and the second best are diet books; how not to eat what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just learned how to cook.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Andy Rooney
W
e have become a nation enamored with fad and trendy diets for decades. Think Dr. Atkinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exclusive carnivorous smorgasbord, the Paleolithic HunterGatherer â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cavemanâ&#x20AC;? Diet, The Zone, The Martini Diet, low fat, low salt, low sugar, low carb, low food. A study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association has the latest stats on the weight-loss scene. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the skinny on the most effective diet regime. Researchers weighed the
low-carb, low-glycemic and low-fat diets against each other and found the former burned the most calories in a day, the latter burned the least calories, while the lowglycemic was the best all around diet, burning more than the low-fat diet while easier to stick to over the long haul than the low-carb diet. The buzzwords of this diet are Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load, referring to how certain foods affect blood sugar and insulin levels, and ultimately measuring how quickly foods are digested. High-glycemic foods cause a spike in blood sugar then a crash, resulting in a surge of hormones that trigger hunger pangs and lower metabolism. This puts the skids on weight loss and maintaining optimum weight. So in the new world of dieting, the lower the index and load, the better. Numbers Game The Glycemic Index is measured on a scale of 1 to 100. Foods ranging from 1 to 54 are low-glycemic; 55 to 70 are moderate, while those over 70 are considered
Not your Grandmaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Barley Tabouli â&#x2013; Serves 4 â&#x2013; Ingredients: â&#x20AC;˘ 1 cup pearl barley â&#x20AC;˘ 1 cup fresh parsley, chopped â&#x20AC;˘ 1/2 cup fresh mint, chopped â&#x20AC;˘ 3 Persian cucumbers, diced â&#x20AC;˘ 1/2 small red onion, minced â&#x20AC;˘ 3 Roma tomatoes, chopped â&#x20AC;˘ 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil â&#x20AC;˘ 1/4 cup lemon juice â&#x20AC;˘ Sea salt and black pepper to taste â&#x20AC;˘ 6 Romaine lettuce leaves high-glycemic, glucose representing 100. Low GI foods include lentils, beans, sourdough rye, pumpernickel and stoneground whole wheat breads, sweet potatoes, barley, apples and tomato juice. The moderate category includes brown rice, Moroccan couscous, raisins, corn and cranberry juice; while in the high category are the refined whites â&#x20AC;&#x201D; white rice, Wonder white bread, baked potatoes, French fries, Cheerios and watermelon. To calculate the Glycemic Load, (a more accurate
â&#x2013; Method: Boil barley in 2 cups of salted water. Cover and simmer for 35 minutes, or until water is absorbed. Chill and combine with cucumber, onion, tomatoes and herbs. In a mixing bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss into barley mixture. Line a platter with lettuce leaves and top with tabouli. Garnish with mint leaves.
indication of the effect of a serving of food on blood sugar levels), the amount of available carbohydrate in a serving of food is multiplied by the GI, then divided by 100. Once again, lower is better. Some examples include lentils with a GL of 5, brown rice 16, and white rice 25. Swap Meat Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to swap out high GI foods for low ones. For breakfast, instead of sugary, refined, cold cereals and orange juice, do oatmeal with raw oranges. For burgers, switch the
2nd Annual
pasty white buns for whole grain or rye. With breaded chicken cutlets or battered fish, use whole wheat, rye, oat or almond flour, or better yet, poach or grill with fresh lemon and olive oil. Do sweet potato fries instead of Russet fries, and raw veggies with a low-fat yoghurt dip, rather than chips and cheesy dips. Gas it Up Beans and lentils add a low GI oomph to your diet, dialing up fiber, protein, an assortment of B vitamins and minerals. Autumn
offers a bounty of beans â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from Cranberry, Butter Limas and Cannellini to Black, Red and White Kidneys. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not a fan of beans, do hummus with traditional chickpeas or riffs using Great Northerns or organic edamames. Watch Your Bs and Qs Give wheat the shaft for low GI grains like nutty, chewy barley, as divine in soups, stews, pilafs and risottos as in cereals and desserts. Fragment and fluffy Basmati rice has a low GI because it losses a lot of starch during cooking, the finished product not sticky like other high GI rices. Buckwheat is a versatile seed that can be roasted as in Kasha, or ground into flour or enjoyed as a noodle. Quick-cooking, multitasking bulgur wheat is typically used for Mediterranean dishes, including tabouli, pilafs and stuffings. The Incan Mother grain quinoa is a complete protein that can be a satisfying main dish or a delectable side or salad. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to chew the fat, e-mail kitchenshrink@ san.rr.com

About Gloria Steinem ■ Born: March 25, 1934; Toledo, Ohio ■ Parents: Mother, Ruth, Presbyterian of Scottish/German descent; father, Leo, son of Jewish immigrants from Germany/Poland. When Steinem was 3, her mother, then 34, had a ‘nervous breakdown’ that left her an invalid. Her parents later divorced.
Live Here. Give Here.
■ Spouse: David Bale (m 2000-2003 deceased), father of actor Christian Bale ■ Education: Smith College, 1956 ■ Career highlights: Journalist/social and political activist who became a leader of the women’s liberation movement in the late 1960s and 1970s; co-founded Ms Magazine, 1972; testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee in favor of the Equal Rights Amendment, 1970; inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame, 1993; American Humanist Association’s 2012 Humanist of the Year for her activism in feminism and LGBT rights ■ Health: abortion at age 22 shaped right-to-choose stance; breast cancer diagnosis, 1986; trigeminal neuralgia, 1994 ■ Books: ‘Revolution from Within: A Book of Self-Esteem’; ‘Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions’; ‘Moving Beyond Words’; and ‘Marilyn: Norma Jean.’ ■ Today: Steinem is working on ‘Road to the Heart: America As if Everyone Mattered,’ a book about her more than 30 years on the road as a feminist organizer. FROM STEINEM, B3 “Do not be afraid of conflict. It produces energy,” Steinem said. “(In an unjust situation) you must ask for what you want. Talk to your co-workers to find out what they get paid. Change your job. Bring legal action.” Steinem challenged those listening to work for the full humanity of both men and women. “If we are honest,” she said, “we’ll acknowledge the folly of gender labels that suppress us. This masculine dominance/feminine submission business is not good for anyone.” To prove her point, Steinem quoted studies that show men who actively participate in child-rearing, live three years longer than those who relinquish the role to their wives. “It’s time to change. Time to understand the roots of the tree we can’t see,” she said of the way society has evolved. “We can challenge what’s out there as the norm with what we do with our votes, our dollars. If each of us behaves as if everything we do matters; we can make a difference. I’m a hope-aholic.” Steinem had parenting advice for the next generation of feminists. “Some mothers say to me, ‘My daughter doesn’t know who you are!’ I just laugh and say, ‘That’s OK, does she know who SHE is?’ “Listen to your daughters and encourage them to follow their bliss, to work at a job where the time flies by and they’re happy and fully engaged. The worst thing you can tell them is that girls can be anything they

want because that’s a lie! Girls run into boundaries and then think it’s their fault. “And don’t tell them they can have it all. They can’t. No one can. Your duty is to love and protect your child so she can become who she already is.” Taking questions from the audience, Steinem was challenged by a young woman who said her nonconformist, multi-cultured background sometimes causes her pain
… confusion. Steinem’s response drew a standing ovation. “You know,” she said, “the most dangerous time for a woman is when she’s just left … when she’s escaping control … this may be an analogy for our country. We’re no longer a white majority nation, so we’re filled with fear and skepticism, we don’t trust our financial institutions … we’re buying guns, we’re homophobic … it’s our time of danger, so maybe we’re escaping … maybe soon we can all be free!” In introducing Steinem, event chair Jobi Halper called her a “true icon” because she “advances leadership among women, inspires humanitarian efforts world-wide and is a galvanizing call to women in the workplace.” Halper said the goal of the Inspiring Minds Speaker Series would be to present outstanding leaders to the community every nine to 12 months with affordable tickets that allow access to all San Diegans.

request made to the Trustee by the Beneficiary. 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 on 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

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) 573-1965 or visit this Internet Web site www.priorityposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 11-43613. 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. The Declaration pursuant to California Civil Code, Section 2923.5(a) was fulfilled when the Notice of Default was recorded on 6/12/2012 Date: 9/25/2012 Old Republic Default Management Services, A Division of Old Republic National Title Insurance Company, as Trustee 500 City Parkway West, Suite 200, Orange, CA 928682913 (866) 263-5802 For Sale Information Contact: Priority Posting and Publishing (714) 573-1965 Tony Delgado, Trustee Sale Officer “We are attempting to collect a debt, and any information we obtain will be used for that purpose.” P988037 10/4, 10/11, 10/18/2012.

Coldwell Banker names its Top 10 suburbs As part of its five-part “Best Places to Live” series, Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC partnered with Onboard Informatics to rank the top places for suburbanites and analyze trends based on data from more than 11,000 suburban areas across America. The report, released Sept. 28, revealed a glimpse into life in the suburbs, where many people own their homes (75 percent), drive to work (92 percent) and spend approximately four times as much to prepare meals at home than go out to eat. Cherry Hills Village, Colo., approximately 10 miles south of downtown Denver, rank as the No. 1 Best Place for suburbanites, receiving the highest score in the nation with a nearly 100-percent home ownership rate and less than 20-minute average commute. The following communities make up Coldwell Banker’s Top 10 Best Places to Live for Suburbanites, scoring high on a range of attributes, such as access to suburban amenities (grocery stores, banks, etc.), proximity to good schools, commuting by car and area safety:
are perfect for the hip, trendy and fun at heart — those who would rather go out than stay home any night of the week. The list was compiled based on a range of attributes such as, access to public transportation, high volume of bars and restaurants, happening nightlife and great entertainment.
