Faith Communities Editor’s Note: This is the second in a new bi-monthly La Jolla Light series examining the various faith communities in our town and the people within them. Reporter Linda Hutchison and photographer Milan Kovacevic will take us into the familiar buildings for insight on what goes on inside … and why.
By Linda Hutchison ne of La Jolla’s most photographed and treasured buildings is the white Spanish Mission-style Mary, Star of the Sea Catholic Church on Girard Avenue. Although the main church building is 77 years old, it’s possible

to imagine it existing 250 years ago when the Franciscan friars built California’s original missions. Today, of course, the roads around it are paved and filled with traffic,
but Mary, Star of the Sea continues to offer both parishioners and visitors a sense of peace in the heart of the busy Village. The church welcomes up to 800 worshippers per weekend, according to pastor Rev. James Rafferty. Its overall membership includes approximately 1,000 families, with 400 regular contributors. These members gather under the red tile roof to worship, to learn and to put their teachings into practice, said Rev. Rafferty. “Every church is different, we all have personalities,” he said, “but the Catholic Church, as a whole, carries to the world the biblical understandings of our scripture scholars for centuries and their application to present-day life. The mission of the church is to celebrate the sacraments within the community and to do works of charity
By Pat Sherman Representatives of the shortterm vacation rental (STVR) industry showed up en masse to support their livelihoods when the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) took up the issue again during its Nov. 6 meeting, and ultimately voted 7-3-1 to recommend the city impose a permit fee to fund increased enforcement of existing STVR regulations. After hearing some 40 people speak, including several opposed to vacation rentals, LJCPA trustees weighed in on the recommendations of an ad hoc committee it formed this year to explore the issue.

State of La JollA Reports planned for January 2015 By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) hopes to increase transparency and knowledge of La Jolla’s community groups with its new ‘State of La Jolla’ event, announced President Steve Haskins during LJTC’s Nov. 13 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center. “We’re inviting leaders of all the primary, most important organizations in La Jolla to come and each give a 10-minute address on what their accomplishments have

Violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman talks music, polio at Salk Institute By Pat Sherman Violin virtuoso and polio survivor Itzhak Perlman never got to meet Jonas Salk, nor benefit from the polio vaccine the acclaimed medial researcher and virologist developed six years after Perlman contracted the infectious disease at age 4, which left his legs paralyzed. Nevertheless, speaking at the La Jolla research institute Salk founded in 1960 on Nov. 13 — the centenary of Salk’s birth — Perlman said he read about Salk constantly in his youth. “He was ‘the guy,’ ” said Perlman, the recipient of 16 Grammy and four Emmy awards (including his hauntingly beautiful score for the film “Schindler’s List”). Perlman is also an ardent advocate for the eradication of polio and spokesperson for persons with disabilities. The problem with eradicating polio, he said, is that people don’t view it the same way they do more imminent health threats, such as Ebola. “You still have three countries (Afghanistan, Nigeria and Pakistan) that have some cases,” said Perlman, who was awarded the Salk Institute Medal for Public Service during last week’s visit. “The problem with polio is that it’s never over … until it’s over. And then it’s not over either unless you continue with vaccination.” Perlman’s interest in the violin was cemented at age 3, the year before he contracted polio. Living in Tel Aviv with his parents, he practiced three hours a day while his parents sought hope in the slightest movement of a toe or special diets they were

told might hold the cure for his affliction. Perlman taught himself to play on a toy fiddle until he was old enough to study with Rivka Goldgart at the Shulamit Conservatory and at the Academy of Music in Tel Aviv. He gave his first recital at age 10, moving on to study at the Juilliard School in the United States. Perlman learned to walk on crutches and today performs and travels with the assistance of an electric scooter. Despite his early promise, Perlman was

told he would never have a successful career as a touring artist due his physical limitations. “People assumed that I was not going to be able to do this because of the travel involved and I absolutely did not understand that at all,” he said. “I didn’t take it seriously, but I did have to prove that I was able to physically go any place and physically do the traveling. If you look at some of my early reviews they always had to mention the fact I was walking on crutches or in a chair and it was a part of the review
— and then it stopped, because people got used to it.” Asked what inspires his playing today, Perlman said it remains the music. “When you think about somebody who sometimes has to play the same pieces over and over again, you’ve got to be inspired by the music,” he said. “If you’re not, every day you’re going to just play the same thing all over again, the same way you’ve done it a

La Jolla Town Council From State of La Jolla, A1 been over the past year and what they plan during the coming year,” Haskins said of the event, set for 6 p.m. Jan. 8 at the rec center. “We’d like to continue to do this every year.” Requests for participation are being sent to the La Jolla Village Merchants Association, La Jolla Community Planning Association, Bird Rock Community Council and La Jolla Shores Association. Other organizations interested in participating can contact Haskins at president@lajollatowncouncil.org or (619) 479-4351, ext. 29.
In other Town Council news n Sparkle & Shine: Nancy Warwick and Sherry Ahern noted that the La Jolla Village Merchants Association’s Sparkle & Shine campaign has raised $44,000 to steam-clean sidewalks and trash cans in the Village. The amount was raised via donations from 32 individuals, including Warwick and Ahern. Steam-cleaning began recently in the 7600 block of Girard Avenue, near Esteban Interiors. “We would love to raise enough money to

steam-clean the Village once a month for a year,” Warwick said. “We’re not there (but) we can do very big quarterly cleanings. It’s not the best solution for our problems, but we need to do something,” Sparkle & Shine allows business owners or residents to purchase a banner for $400 per month, to be displayed on one of 100 poles throughout the Village, including 23 on Torrey Pines Road. The banners will fly December through March 2015. “You can put your business name, family name, child’s school or your favorite sports team,” Warwick said. “Some people partner with friends. I had a resident call me a couple of days ago saying eight of her neighbors are getting together and coming up with a funny name to put on a banner.
n Council vacancies: President Haskins noted that there are three openings on the LJTC board, to be filled during next month’s meeting. In addition, he said trustee Glenda Rothberg has resigned as first-vice president, though will remain on the board. Trustees will vote on whether to approve Haskins’ suggested replacement, Al Ramirez, during the December meeting. n Bylaws redux: Revisions to the LJTC’s bylaws, being crafted by a trustee bylaws committee, will be presented for consideration, during the LJTC’s Dec. 11 meeting. “We may change some of the rules about how trustees are appointed or what their minimum qualifications need to be,” Haskins said. n Beach cleanup: The LJTC will sponsor a beach cleanup at La Jolla Shores, 9 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 14. Those interested should meet at Kellogg Park that morning. More than 30 members of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity at UC San Diego have committed to participate, Haskins said. Coffee and donuts will be provided. n Event raises $1,500: LJTC second vice-president Yolanda de Riquer thanked
trustees Natasha Alexander and Al Ramirez (and others) for their help hosting last month’s farewell party for the crew of the USS La Jolla submarine, which is being decommissioned. The event raised $1,500 for the LJTC. n Water-saving tips: David Akin, a consumer advocate with the City of San Diego’s Public Utilities Department offered a presentation on the city’s Waste No Water campaign, and tips for consumers to conserve water and save on their utility bills. The city declared a “Stage 2” drought alert this summer, which means that conserving water is no longer voluntary, but mandatory. Akin noted a new smartphone app that allows people to report water leaks by taking a photo on their smartphones. He said the city is also offering free residential water surveys, during which it will check bathrooms, kitchens, washing machines, irrigation systems and soil for water leaks. The city also offers the free survey for commercial landscaping. Some money may be available for those who wish to replace turf with droughttolerant landscaping. In addition, Akin said, the city may reduce one’s water bill for repairing hidden leaks in walls under concrete slabs, after submitting the bill for the repair. For more information about permitting of gray water reclamation systems or other waterrelated questions, e-mail Akin at Dakin@ sandiego.gov or phone (619) 533-3500. u

all 2014 marked the installation of a new section of the Waverly Gate Community Wall dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the Bird Rock Community Council, which was founded in 1994. Twenty years of volunteer effort has created a council that serves its community on many levels. We are fortunate to live in a neighborhood that functions like a neighborhood,
with residents providing support to one another and our future generations. Numerous Bird Rock community members participated in this project by purchasing a commemorative tile and adding their personal message to the patchwork, quilt-style mosaic mural. The Waverly Gate Community Wall is an ongoing beautification project that tells a story about the Bird Rock community. It was
created with a three-fold purpose: to honor members of the community, raise funds and connect the community through storytelling and art near the new Waverly Gate entrance to Bird Rock Park. Each tile is hand-crafted and hand-stamped by me, Bird Rock artist Jane Wheeler. Proceeds from the tile sales go to Bird Rock Elementary School and other neighborhood
beautification projects. BRCC president Jacqueline Bell presented a check to Bird Rock Elementary principal Sally Viavada at a morning assembly on Oct. 27.

Residents ready to veto night work on Shores utilities La Jolla
Shores
Association
Editor’s Note: As of press time, calls had come into San Diego Police from several La Jolla Shores residents complaining about the nighttime noise. Anticipating additional calls, Lt. Scott Wahl indicated he expects the night work permit to be revoked and work would continue during daytime hours.
Leading up to the sewer and water main replacement on Avenida de la Playa, construction equipment is stationed near the main thoroughfare.
District 1 representative, explained that in an effort to “mitigate the impact on everybody,” the project was split into two portions. The first portion, she said, spans the business-centric 2100 block of Avenida de la Playa (between Camino del Sol and El Paseo Grande), with construction expected to take three months, starting Nov. 16. For this first leg, Steve Lindsay, senior construction engineer for the City of San Diego, said he and his team applied for a permit to work from 11 p.m. to 11 a.m., which was granted. Leading up to the night work application, a survey was sent out to 400 residences within 500 feet of the work zone, seeking input. Of those, 74 responded in favor of
night work and 49 opposed. The second portion would span the two blocks of Avenida de la Playa between El Paseo Grande and La Jolla Shores Drive, where more residents would be impacted, and work would be completed during the day. It was also announced that the night work permit was granted on the condition that the noise not pose a public nuisance. Should the noise get to be excessive, residents have the option to call the police non-emergency number and report it. If an officer responds, the night work permit would be revoked and work would proceed during the day. LJSA Chair Tim Lucas encouraged residents to continue to patronize local merchants. “The city has to be able to
replace infrastructure … it could have been handled better, but it has to get done,” he said. “It’s a tough situation and no one is happy with it. But in the meantime, support your local businesses otherwise no one is going to survive this.” However, several concerned residents who live near the planned night work cited their very recent construction experiences associated with the storm drain replacement on Avenida de la Playa at Camino del Sol — which took place during the day from December 2013 to just this month — as the basis for their objection. Many reported that during construction, their homes would shake as if in an earthquake, and construction noises could not be ignored.
s
By Ashley Mackin As the most dreaded phases of the Avenida de la Playa Infrastructure Replacement Project began — replacing the sewer and water lines down the middle of the La Jolla Shores main thoroughfare — residents and business owners were still grappling with the hours in which the work should take place, and discussed the issue at the Nov. 12 La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) meeting. Shores merchants, concerned about the impact to their businesses due to noise and dust, hoped the work could be completed at night. Residents, concerned about a potential lack of sleep, hoped for just the opposite. Francis Barraza, Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s

include in their proposals.” Other new components include an annual review of the RFP and scheduling changes to address the frequency of trucks driving up and down the street with equipment. However, despite the request that a percentage of RFP fees be earmarked for the Shores or for Kellogg Park, all revenue generated by RFP fees will continue to go to the San Diego General Fund.
Volunteers Jade Appel, Terry Kraszewski, Sam Farber and Liora and Heidi Krantz, help clean the bronze fish imbedded in The Map educational installation and document their condition. Photos by Ashley Mackin LJSA board member Brandon Price manages an apartment building that abuts the construction zone, and reported that his residents had issues with the daytime work. “I recognize this is a tough situation, but I’ve received multiple notices from my tenants that they are threatening to leave due to the noise during the day,” he said, referencing the storm drain work. “I’ve had windows break because of the shaking. If you could imagine that happening at 11 o’clock at night, residents are not going to get sleep. I’m taken aback that you got support of any kind from residents for nighttime work.”
Lindsay acknowledged buildings might shake when equipment breaks through the concrete to dig the required trench, which would occur throughout the construction period.
In other LJSA news:
n Kayak RFP done, concerns addressed: The latest version of the kayak concessionaires Request for Proposal (RFP) was released this month, and La Jolla Kayak co-owner Sharon Luscomb said many, if not all the community concerns raised during months of feedback-gathering meetings, were addressed. RFPs outline the terms by
which recreation companies must abide in order to work on the beach. Many kayak vendors load and unload equipment and offer tours, and therefore need to apply for and follow a RFP agreement. “I’ve been through all three (previous) RFP cycles and this RFP is entirely different,” she said. “It reflects the concerns brought forth by the community. It requires (for example) off-street parking at night, which was never there before and ‘documentation as to how you plan to minimize customer traffic on the sidewalk’ is in there. “Addressing every single complaint … is all part of what operators are being asked to
n Map fiasco nears resolution: Friends of La Jolla Shores member Mary CoakleyMunk said an agreement to repair The Map — an educational display representing the canyons and sea life in the ocean at La Jolla Shores — might be reached soon. “We are in a very good place with The Map, finally after all this time,” she said. “We have a tentative agreement with (contractor) T.B. Penick and we’re awaiting the city’s approval.” The Map is made of glass beads in various shades of blue, but its laminating surface Lithocrete, installed by T.B. Penick, began to crack soon after the installation in 2008, posing a safety hazard. Anticipating being able to move forward on their agreement, Friends of La Jolla Shores and supporters gathered Nov. 15 to clean the bronze inset fish and documented their condition so when the Map is repaired, they will be in the same condition. n La Jolla Shores Association next meets: 6:30 p.m. Wednesday Dec. 10 at Scripps Institute of Oceanography, Building T-29, 8840 Biological Grade.

Architect declines seat on planning association board By Pat Sherman La Jolla architect Michael Morton took members of the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) board of directors by surprise last week when he declined to take a seat on the board, as recommended by city officials and agreed upon by LJCPA trustees Oct. 29 to settle his challenge to the group’s March 2014 election. The challenge was filed after termed-out LJCPA board members Joe LaCava and Jim Fitzgerald were elected to third terms, while a new candidate receiving the fewest votes, Morton, did not receive a seat (read previous coverage of the eight-month saga at lajollalight.com). Per City Council Policy 60024, which governs the city’s planning groups, new candidates receive priority over termed-out Michael Morton candidates, although there is some leeway in the LJCPA bylaws for trustees to have a third term when there is a shortage of qualified candidates and the termed-out candidates receive more than two-thirds of the vote. The LJCPA did not initially have enough candidates for the seats available, until three write-in candidates — each receiving more votes than Morton — threw their hats in the ring. After LaCava was seated and elected board president (Fitzgerald stepped down) the city opined that Morton should have received

the remaining year of a recently departed board member’s term, which LJCPA trustees disputed. In the end, a compromise to seat Morton for the remaining five months of the term was brokered between the LJCPA executive committee and the city, which had initially threatened to strip the LJCPA of its legal indemnification and status as La Jolla’s recognized planning group. Morton was in attendance during the special meeting Oct. 29 when both general LJCPA members and trustees voted to accept the compromise, although he did not convey displeasure with the situation until the LJCPA’s regular Nov. 6 meeting. Noting that he served on the LJCPA board nearly a decade ago, when the group faced a similar challenge questioning its
inclusiveness, Morton argued that such problems still persist. “It is now November and 75 percent of my duly elected term has vanished because of obstruction tactics (and) poor leadership by the (LJCPA) trustees,” Morton said during the meeting, noting he believes five trustees violated policy 600-24 and LJCPA bylaws and engaged in “collective concurrence” by meeting outside the board and publishing a letter in La Jolla Light opining that the LJCPA should not adopt the city’s election challenge remedy. (One of those five trustees, Rob Whittemore, resigned from the board in protest Oct. 29 after the LJCPA agreed to seat Morton). “The political compromise approved is only for a second-class, back-of-the-bus
seat,” Morton said. “This would only be a partial remedy to gloss over fundamental errors made by the LJCPA. … Unfortunately, this means the challenge to the March 2014 election will continue.” However, Karen Bucey, the City of San Diego’s new senior planner for La Jolla, later told La Jolla Light, “The bylaw amendment revision to authorize the 19th seat and offer to seat Mr. Morton concludes the last remaining issue related to the March 2014 election. The LJCPA may or may not opt to fill the vacancy for the remaining five months of (Morton’s) term. The seat will no longer exist after April 1, 2015.” LaCava said the vacancy left by Whittemore’s resignation will be filled during the LJCPA’s March election. In his statement, Morton urged others concerned about “fair play and unbiased public reviews of projects” to attend LJCPA meetings, run for a seat on the LJCPA board of directors and “support like-minded candidates for the March 2015 elections.” The LJCPA has formed a trustee ad hoc committee to recommend changes to the group’s bylaws that would clear up any gray areas in the group’s election procedures. City Council President Pro Tem and LJCPA general member Sherri Lightner (of La Jolla) has also promised better oversight of future elections, including the group’s March 2015 election. In order to run for a seat on the board, candidates must attend three LJCPA meetings in the year prior to the election. LaJollaCPA.org u

La Jolla Community Planning Association From Vacation Rentals, A1
Chelsea Graue, of the San Diego Vacation Rental Managers Alliance, said Carlsbad City Attorney Celia Brewer told her Carlsbad is supporting regulations for short-term rentals in lieu of an outright ban.
La Jolla vacation rental owner Geoff Longenecker says he watched regulations limiting vacation rentals ‘devastate’ the real estate market in Key West, Fla.
the duration too short. A motion to impose a minimum rental of seven days failed to garner enough support from LJCPA trustees, as well as one made by Costello to impose a 30-day minimum (garnering a round of applause from STVR owners and industry representatives in attendance). In addition, a motion to pass several of the ad hoc committee’s recommendations — including substantially increased fines for CAPP violators and requiring the owners of such homes to place a deposit in escrow with the city to be forfeited upon subsequent violations — failed to garner enough trustee support to be adopted by the board.
“All these (ad hoc) recommendations are way too many and just not relevant,” trustee Fran Zimmerman said. Should the city adopt the LJCPA’s suggested permit fee to increase enforcement of existing STVR regulations, city staff would determine the fee amount. LJCPA trustee Robert Mapes noted that Austin, Texas has a STVR fee of $283, though Costello said with approximately 450 identified STVRs in La Jolla, the city would have about $126,000 to fund increased enforcement, which he said would not suffice. LaCava suggested the industry be more sympathetic overall to those living next door to STVRs. “Self regulation, I’ll say it over and over again,” he stressed.
T:10.33”
s
Opponents of STVRs, including a group organized as the “30 Day Club,” believe establishing a minimum allowable time for vacation rentals would prevent homeowners or property management companies from renting homes for weddings or other private parties of one or two nights — the most common source of noise, parking and trash complaints. LJCPA board President Joe LaCava said that while San Diego’s municipal code gets “thicker and thicker … staff needed for enforcement” is dwindling. Many argue that San Diego Police’s Community Assisted Party Program (CAPP) — which allows police to establish a zero tolerance policy for chronically reported party houses, resulting in fines, arrests and other penalties — is ineffective due to a paucity of officers to handle the volume of complaints. In addition, police note that complaints from problem rentals typically occur on busy weekends, and are viewed as a lower priority.
SDPD Community Relations Officer Larry Hesselgesser said during the last six months SDPD had an average of four to five complaints about party houses in La Jolla on Friday and Saturday nights, in comparison with Pacific Beach, which had an average of 11 on Friday nights and 16 on a Saturday nights. “It’s not something where (officers) are there for five minutes,” he said. “If they need backup, it could be a half hour or even longer that they’re taking to clear that party out.” LJCPA trustee Helen Boyden added residents are often reticent to phone police in the first place, and urged them to report party houses and get an incident number so that police statistics accurately reflect the problem. STVR opponent and LJCPA trustee Mike Costello said regulations such as CAPP are a “paper tiger” in the absence of adequate enforcement. Costello stressed his belief the San Diego’s zoning laws need to be strengthened to prevent STVRs as they currently exist in residential neighborhoods. LJCPA board vice president Bob Steck, who served on the group’s STVR ad hoc committee, noted that the City of Coronado has a 30-day minimum established for vacation rentals, though when tested, most of those advertising their homes for rent online agreed to rent for a shorter duration, thwarting Coronado’s mandate. Although STVR industry spokesperson Johan Mechanic suggested to the ad hoc committee that a minimum stay of three nights be established for STVRs, trustees felt

In other LJCPA news n Requests to write city officials: During the meeting two individuals requested that the LJCPA write the city to address specific concerns. Shores resident Peggie Davis suggested a letter address environmental documents that project applicants are required to generate. Davis said such documents, which are lengthy and require time to review, are often not submitted to the LJCPA or its subcommittees in a timely manner, resulting in projects that don’t conform to San Diego Municipal Code, the La Jolla Community Plan and Planned District Ordinances for La Jolla and the Shores. She suggested all documents be submitted within 10 business days prior to community review, and that any changes made to a permit application after initial LJCPA approval be submitted to the group for review. Representing the La Jolla Historical Society’s (LJHS) preservation committee, Bird Rock resident Don Schmidt asked that a letter be drafted requiring the city’s Historical Resources Board (HRB) staff to provide, upon request, electronic or print copies of historical reports issued when a property is being evaluated for a potential historic designation. Schmidt said the city provides the public copies of almost all other public documents, including permit applications, environmental documents and project status reports, many via the Development Services Department’s new OpenDSD website. He said the LJHS has worked with the office of District 1 City
LA JOLLA LIGHT - NOVEMBER 20, 2014 - Page A15
Councilmember Sherri Lightner on this request for more than five years, to no avail. City of San Diego spokesperson Lynda Pfeifer told La Jolla Light reports associated with properties reviewed by the HRB are available online through the California Historic Resources Inventory Database (CHRID, bit.ly/HistoricalInventory), searchable by community planning area, address or other fields. “They can then view the ‘Full Nomination,’ staff report and resolution (if applicable) in PDF form,” Pfeifer replied, via e-mail. “If a historic report was required as part of a project application but was not forwarded to the (HRB) due to lack of significance, it is not posted to the CHRID.” She said the public may review reports for free at the HRB offices, or make copies at 25 cents per page.
n Election committee: LaCava also appointed an election committee to organize and oversee the LJCPA’s March 2015 election consisting of trustees Cindy Greatrex (as chair), Nancy Manno, Bob Steck and Patrick Ahern.
This 855-square-foot home addition, with a variance for a 4-foot, side-yard setback from the street (where 10 feet is required), has led to what some say are cramped conditions on a .05-acre site at Olivetas Avenue and Marine Street. Photos by Pat Sherman
n Cramped residential corner: Trustee Zimmerman complained that an 855-square-foot home addition under construction at the corner of Olivetas Avenue and Marine Street on a .05-acre site — approved by LJCPA trustees in March 2013 — sets a bad precedent for future development. The LJCPA voted 8-6-2 to approve a variance for a four-foot, side-yard setback from the street, where 10 feet is required per the La Jolla Community Plan. “It appears to be built out to the sidewalk (and) dwarves its neighbors on the east and on the north,” Zimmerman said. “I would urge this body to very cautiously approve variances to setbacks and to doubling the size of buildings left and right all over town.”

Diego (Bayside Community Center) and to prisoners and those needing grief support. At Christmas, the church sponsors a giftgiving program for those who attend the community suppers. “We let them know they can ask if they want to receive a gift,” said Rev. Rafferty. “It’s usually a gift card or practical items such as footwear. We put their names on a tree in the church and our members pick a name, buy a gift, and hand them out at a party.” During the year, the church also distributes pastries and socks to those needing help, alternating weeks with La Jolla Presbyterian.
Currently, there is no central ecumenical coalition or interfaith community support with regular gatherings, explained Rev. Rafferty. This is something he would like to see in the faith community, in addition to individual efforts. “It would be good for all of us,” he said. Rev. Rafferty has been the pastor of Mary, Star of the Sea since July 1, 2008. Born in Inglewood, California, he earned a bachelor’s degree in philosophy from the University of San Diego and a master’s degree in divinity from St. Patrick’s Seminary and University in Menlo Park.

In addition, the Sacrament of Reconciliation is held Saturday at 3:30 p.m. and extra services are celebrated at Easter and Christmas. In addition to worship services, Mary, Star of the Sea provides its members and wouldbe members with a variety of educational programs, including Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (how to become a

The murals ‘The Holy Family at the Nazareth’ and ‘Mary, Star of the Sea’ were painted by artist Jan Henryk de Rosen. After serving as an associate pastor for several years, he was assigned to the Church of St. Timothy in Escondido, where he served for 21 years, and then St. Pius X in Chula Vista for almost two years. He expects this will be his last assignment. He joined the La Jolla parish just two years after its 100-year anniversary. It was formed in 1906 when several Catholics gathered regularly at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. V. Mannix on Coast Boulevard, where they persuaded a friend, a Catholic priest, to say Mass. As the area grew and a formal parish was established (called Mary, Star of the Sea in
honor of the Blessed Virgin), a subsequent pastor purchased three lots on Girard and built the first church in 1909. The current church was built in 1937, designed by architect Carleton Monroe Winslow (18761946) of Los Angeles, who also designed many of the buildings in Balboa Park for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition. The large fresco above the main entrance, titled “Our Lady, Star of the Sea,” was painted by Alfredo Ramos Martinez (1871-1946), a Mexican-born painter and muralist who was called the Father of Mexican Modernism. Soon after the new church opened, the old

church building was torn down, making room for the current parish house. In 1947, the church added the Stella Maris Academy and a convent for the academy’s teachers, Sisters of the Holy Cross (now the Pastoral Center). Further additions in 1952 included a 500seat auditorium and a parish hall with a solid brass mission bell. The bell’s inscription reads “Jesus 1690 Maria” and it is thought to be original, carried from Spain by the Franciscan friars. u n Coming in the Dec. 4 issue: La Jolla Lutheran Church

Fall into winter at Adelaide’s with exquisite seasonal decor and gifts By Marti Gacioch Adelaide’s Florist continues to brighten holidays in the Village after 79 years with cornucopias brimming with colorful produce in reds, oranges and yellows; sparkling holiday décor; and gifts for every tradition in palettes of white, silver and green. Under the guidance of partners, general manger Jerry Parent and creative director Larry Anhorn, Adelaide’s leads the way each year with early debuts of the latest in seasonal decor, floral and gifts. With autumn in full flower, Adelaide’s has a bountiful harvest of blown-glass pumpkins, real pumpkins, colorful leaves and pots, and cornucopias of brightly colored seasonal fruits and vegetables. “Our inexpensive glass pumpkins are so unique that customers will keep them from year to year,” Parent said. “We use many fresh flowers and fruits in our fall arrangements — from cornucopias spilling fruits and vegetables to traditional Thanksgiving arrangements with candles.” After Thanksgiving, the store shifts quickly to winter decor and florals. “We’re completely decorated for winter with a centerpiece featuring Boo Boo, our life-size, holiday glass mosaic polar bear with cubs,” Parent said. “Our winter section features everything from ice crystal branches to white Amaryllis and garlands of artificial white hydrangeas and berries.” Standout items include holiday trees aglow with LED lights that change color; reindeer studded with glass diamonds; silver accented glass decor, white feathers trees
and silver branches decorated with pearls. Adelaide’s also features children’s holiday items, including a child’s first nativity set, traditional holiday toys and gingerbread houses. “Many of our gifts appeal to children of all ages,” Parent said. “We lean toward a seasonal look that suits all religions in this the time of light and are showing collectible Santas with beautiful faces and great detail.” Adelaide’s seeks out unique holiday pieces each season, and their collectible items could easily become heirlooms to pass down through generations. Their most impressive items include a statuesque nativity set in white-tone resin featuring 15 large pieces. It’s paired with a large angel in a display suited for the entryway of larger homes. Adelaide’s amazing gingerbread houses (some measuring 18- by 20-inches) light up on the inside and are exquisitely detailed. Adelaide’s, known for outfitting holiday events for area charities, recently completed a benefit for the Ronald McDonald House. “We try to do events for charities that take care of individuals and causes important to our community and would like to hear from other charities seeking our help,” Parent said. u n Adelaide’s Florist is at 7766 Girard Ave., La Jolla, and is open from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday-Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

From Itzhak Perlman, A3 year ago or a week ago. “If I play Beethoven’s Violin Concerto, I can play it 25 times in a row and still find other things in it that inspire me. … When people ask me, ‘What’s your goal?’ I always say ‘My goal is not to be bored, ever, by what I do’ — and so far, I’m not.” Asked how he gauges the success of a performance, Perlman feigned a clap in which the palms of his hands fail to connect. “If they don’t clap like this,” he joked. “Unless I really bomb, (an audience) will show their enthusiasm,” he said, noting that people around the world express their appreciation in vastly different ways. “If you go to Scandinavia it will sound very polite, PCA-2159-UT-CP-3/4Page-Ad
10.33”w x 9”h
but if you go to Italy it will sound like they’re going out of their minds.” Regarding the confluence of art and science, Perlman confided he has long questioned the extent to which talent is innate, and which it can be developed. “What makes somebody tone deaf and somebody (else) a great painter?” he mused. “All of it, you can explain medically — but maybe not. Maybe you can say, ‘It’s from God,’ but still, there’s got to be an explanation. I mean, what makes somebody be natural at math, and somebody else, like me, be totally like, ‘Duh, what’s going on here?’ “I’ve known conductors who have a photographic memory. They would look at a music score and immediately know it by heart. That’s something you’re born with.
4-color
That’s not something you study and study and finally you develop this photographic memory. You don’t.” Perlman, who with his wife, Toby (also a classically trained violinist), runs a summer camp for gifted string musicians, ages 11-18, said he finds it interesting that so many musicians do their best work when they are young. Interjecting, William Brody, president of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, noted that in math or theoretical physics, “if you haven’t done your best work by 25 it’s probably not going to happen, but we have biologists who are still very creative into their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s — and there are a couple who have won multiple Nobel Prizes in science at different points in their lives.”
However, in music, Perlman said, it is his experience that those who become successful almost always show promise at a young age. “There’s always those instances where you hear somebody at the age of 12 or 13 play and it’s phenomenal — and then they lose it eight or nine years later,” he said. “You can call it burnout, whatever it is.” His wife refers to the decline as “the loss of innocence,” he said. “You play and you don’t know how difficult it is. Then, when you discover how difficult it is, you say, ‘Uhoh, this is too difficult; I’m not supposed to do this,’ ” … Whenever we see somebody (in our program) who’s very young and really amazing, we always say, ‘Oh my God, will they survive their gift?’ — and 90 percent don’t.” u

Rappelers go ‘over the edge’ for brain cancer research By Vincent Andrunas San Diego entrepreneur “Papa” Doug Manchester of La Jolla has rappelled small distances, but never from this height and he said he wasn’t scared at all to make the 365foot descent down the Manchester Grand Hyatt Oct. 31 to raise funds for brain cancer research. But his wife, Geniya, was worried (adding she’s a natural worrier). When he got to the bottom of the drop, his first words were
“Cheated death again!” The downtown hotel hosted the Over the Edge event to benefit accelerated brain cancer cure research. Last year’s event funded a $150,000 project between UC San Diego and Regulus that looked at improving the tools used to diagnose brain tumors. About a dozen VIPs and media people went Over the Edge on Halloween, another 85 others did it Nov. 1. Rappelling is an elaborate procedure with
lots of attention to safety. It starts with equipment fitting (harness, helmets with GoPro cameras, controls, gloves, safety devices, etc.) all the gear that limits the speed at which participants, aka “edgers,” descend. Next, edgers get detailed safety and control-use instruction. The whole thing takes quite a while — a number of people are involved, including at least two on the ground, at least two upstairs, more in the fitting area, etc.
Descent speed is controlled by the edger; people took anywhere from five to 20 minutes to make the descent. Friday night, there was a VIP party in the Bayview Room of the hotel’s other tower where vice president and general manager John Schafer told the crowd that hotel lawyers (fearful of liability issues) told him repeatedly he could not hold this event — but he kept telling them he was going to do it anyway — and he did. u

The real heavy lifting is done by a different part of your body: your brain. It’s in the brain that sound waves become sounds that have meaning to you. Your brain is what uses the information from your two ears to figure out where a sound is coming from. And your brain is what helps you focus in on a conversation and tune out unwanted noise. And because no two people’s brains are the same, no two people hear the same. Recognizing that your hearing is as unique as your fingerprint inspired Oticon to innovate their revolutionary BrainHearing technology. BrainHearing technology enables Oticon hearing instruments to be minutely tuned by a hearing care professional to match your unique hearing profile and personal sound preferences. Then it delivers sound with the clearest, purest signal possible in the way your brain is best able to understand it. BrainHearing technology delivers a more natural, effortless listening experience — one that leads the industry.

Chimney Sweeps Inc. a San Diego staple Steve Carter has seen almost as many chimneys as Santa Claus. As the founder of Chimney Sweeps Inc. and a master chimney sweep, Carter has been in business since 1986 and sees his family-owned business as more than just a job. “We truly care about our customers,” Carter said. “We want every chimney in San Diego to be properly maintained and safe to use. We have a contractor’s license, are certified and fully insured and have serviced over 35,000 chimneys. We go the extra mile to make sure the chimney, whether used or unused, never lessens the value or integrity of the home.” Carter and another person he worked with at a chimney sweep company in Los Angeles formed a partnership and moved to San Diego to create the business 28 years ago, and after a year, the other partner decided it wasn’t for him so Carter and his wife, Valerie, bought him out. “The key to the business is the fact of having family members who wanted to be a part of the business,” Carter said. “At one time or another, all five of our kids have worked in the business; two of them and their spouses still do.” In addition, Carter’s sister is the receptionist, and Valerie’s mother ran the office for many years. Carter said there are many positives to utilizing a chimney sweep. “The first obvious answer is fire safety – if you have a nice, hot fire in a dirty enough chimney, you risk having a chimney fire, which is a bit like a rocket going off in your living room, spewing sparks and burning debris onto your roof and possibly your neighbor’s roof as well,” Carter said. “What many people don’t realize is that as chimneys get older, they become structurally weakened by constantly being out in the elements. The chimney is an important part of a home and it needs maintenance, just like a car does. And you wouldn’t want your chimney falling down, would you?” At the end of the day, Carter prides his company on ultimate customer service. “The two special things about us are that we are truly a family enterprise,” Carter said. “We have the same ethical standards and can therefore work together well. The other is the English heritage we share. I was born in England and the English traditions are important to us. Our sweep will come to your door in his top hat, and a couple of them might even be caught singing a song or two while they are on the roof. “It’s not just a job to us.” For more information, call Chimney Sweeps, Inc at (619) 593-4020 or visit www.chimneysweepsinc.com

Thank you to the kind kids at La Jolla High I’m writing in reply to the La Jolla High School Homecoming photo on the front page of last week’s La Jolla Light. Lilly Grossman’s smile says it all, doesn’t it? Actually, as Lilly’s mom, it’s not her smile that touches me most, it’s the kids’ expressions surrounding her. At first, I thought, wow, how great that these kids can look past the wheelchair and see what Lilly has accomplished in high school; for their high school. I quickly stopped myself and thought, well, why wouldn’t they? They should look at her like anyone else, right? That’s what diversity and disability acceptance is all about after all. I’ll tell you why. I remember high school well and now that I have Lilly, an exceptional kid caught in a body that just can’t keep up with her mind, I wish I had taken the time to get to know kids who weren’t just like me. It’s difficult to be the kid who takes the time to befriend someone who is different. Even though I want everyone to treat Lilly like any other kid, she’s not. So kudos to all the kids who embrace her, who recognize her
accomplishments, and who voted for her to be their Queen. A heartfelt thank you to Jake LeBeau, the King, who helped Lilly onto the field to be crowned and danced with a girl in a wheelchair with a big smile on his face, looking like he’s done it a thousand times before. Thank you to Holden Ward, her date, who was a true gentleman, making her laugh and dancing all night. Thank you to all the kids who watched the dance and were caught smiling on camera. Your parents have taught you true kindness and it shows. As Lilly’s mom, I couldn’t be more proud of the kids who are mature beyond their years. You have blessed Lilly’s life with your love and her father’s and mine as well. Gay Grossman La Jolla

City wasting water in parks In the face of our ongoing drought, the City of San Diego has rightly adopted standards for its residents regarding wasteful watering practices. However, I think that residents will be less eager to comply with various restrictions when the city itself doesn’t make an effort to limit water use. I took the attached picture of the sprinklers at Scripps Park on Monday, Nov. 10 during my morning exercise. The situation looked the same again on Wednesday. This area is clearly being overwatered, as the sprinklers have created a large puddle, which then just runs off into the nearby ocean. Although not captured in the picture, the sprinklers also spent part of the cycle only watering the sidewalk, which is against city regulations. Hopefully, the city will take this matter to heart and carefully adjust its park sprinklers not just here, but in all the city parks. Eric Korevaar La Jolla

Democracy is certainly a messy affair. Some say it’s like making sausage — you like the end result but you don’t want to watch it happen. And there is certainly a lot of sausage-making going on with the La Jolla Community Planning Association. Despite the recent noise, I am proud to report that your planning group is remarkably resilient in doing the business of La Jolla. With nearly 50 volunteers and four very busy subcommittees, your planning group continues to be one of the most active in the city, reviewing more than 100 projects a year. From private land development to public infrastructure projects your LJCPA does its part toward a better La Jolla. Our meetings are always open to the public, come see for yourself the good work of your fellow La Jollans. lajollacpa.org u Joe LaCava President, LJCPA
OPINION
www.lajollalight.com
Addendum to correction A correction in last week’s La Jolla Light stated that a story in the Nov. 6 issue, “Planners adopt city’s election debacle fix,” reported that March 2014 La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) board candidate Peter Ovanessoff stepped aside so architect Michael Morton could take his seat. Ovanessoff contacted the Light to say he does not know Morton, and actually stepped aside because he did not feel it was “appropriate” to be elected via a “technicality” that allows candidates with fewer votes to be elected over termed-out trustees re-elected by a wide margin. However, Odile Costello (wife of LJCPA trustee Mike Costello) alerted the Light to an April 1, 2014 e-mail Ovanessoff sent to then LJCPA President Tony Crisafi, which offers a different perspective on his reason for not joining the board. It reads, in part: “I have learned that Joe LaCava has interpreted the specific sections of the LJCPA’s bylaws to mean that his candidacy is null and void. This interpretation and outcome would mean that I am then eligible for a seat. However, I strongly feel that the community would be better served by Mr. LaCava’s participation, given his experience. … “Therefore I would like to respectfully withdraw my name as a candidate to serve as a member of the LJCPA board if doing so would mean that Mr. LaCava can resume his seat. If my understanding is incorrect, or if my actions would not result in the continued participation of Mr. LaCava, I would be willing to serve.” u

OBITUARIES
Genevieve Youngdale 1924 – 2014
Genevieve “Jenny” Youngdale, 90, died peacefully on July 4, 2014, in Atascadero, CA. Born on May 1, 1924, in Crookston, MN, Jenny was one of five children born to Engvald Johnson and Emma Putzier Johnson. It is nearly impossible to communicate the path of this modest, unselfish girl who caught the eye of Bob (J.R.) Youngdale, an emotional, ambitious young man from Minneapolis, MN. They met in Crookston at the wedding of her brother, Roger, to his sister, Virginia, and for over 64 years, we heard him tell the story of his unwavering attraction and love for the “most beautiful woman in the world”. Upon being swept off her feet by Bob, Jenny quit college and began a life of children (13). Often asked if we were Catholic, the retort was, “no prolific Protestants” or “Careless Swedes”. From 1962 – 1980, her house at 1205 Nautilus Street was filled with her 11 children and a generation of La Jolla
children. Somehow, she was never overwhelmed by it all. Jenny had the ability to relax and enjoy the moment and because she could relax, her children and their friends could too. What a gift! Her quick sharp humor and, most of all, her incredible ability to accept each child for who they were made this home a special place for those lucky kids who hung out for years at the house with the silver fire hydrant. She was truly without judgment – never a critical word, or even a suggestion of a fault. Her kindness, acceptance, and humor left an indelible mark on all who knew her. Jenny and Bob’s greatest joy was their beloved son, Donald Winston. Born in La Jolla in 1964 with Down’s Syndrome, they embraced him and seemed to absorb him into their very beings. Because they were so comfortable with a “special” child, their children and friends never thought twice about it. Beautiful and classy to the end, Genevieve Corrine Johnson Youngdale gave far more than she ever took. Her legacy for her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren is one of gentleness, humor and love, a blessing that will never end. Genevieve was preceded in death by her husband, Bob, who passed away in 2009, and a set of infant twins, Timmy and Tommy, born in 1954. She is survived by 11 children, Joseph, Carol (Fred) Yett, Kay Lidoff, Todd (Christie), Sue, David (Kerri), Doug (Bridget), Roger, Nina (John) Gordon,
Vernon (Marina) and, Donald. She also leaves 26 grandchildren and 2 greatgrandchildren. Services will be held on November 22, 2014, at 1:00 PM at La Jolla Methodist Church, 6063 La Jolla Blvd., La Jolla. Jenny and Bob will be laid in their final resting place in Crookston, Minnesota. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Escuela del Rio School, 5940 Rosario Ave., Atascadero, CA 93422, where Donald works.

Mary Andrews Haag 1922 – 2014
Mary Andrews Haag was born on August 6, 1922, in Troy, Kansas, to the late Joseph F. and Dorothy L. Benn. The oldest of three children, Mary was raised in rural Kansas with her brother, Robert “Jack”, and her sister, Patty. She graduated from Troy High School in 1940 and that same year she was crowned the “Apple Blossom Queen”.
Mary attended business school in Wichita and went to work for Boeing. In Wichita she met J. Floyd “Andy” Andrews and they were married on March 20, 1944. Andy was a pilot and served honorably in WWII. After the war, Mary and Andy moved to San Diego where in 1949 he co-founded the legendary Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA). The airline was well known for its new and innovative approaches and was constantly in the news. During those years, Mary and Andy crossed paths with many folks including political and film personalities of the time. PSA was sold to US Air. For a number of years, Mary was an Executive Secretary at Convair (bought out by General Dynamics) to General Joseph T. McNarney. Mary’s favorite past-time was golf and for over sixty years she was a well-known and beloved member of La Jolla Country Club. Mary was a cheerful, outgoing lady and everyone who knew her loved her. She was a hostess extraordinaire, a lover of life and people, travel and her Boxer dogs. She always took a caring interest in all those around her and was a generous contributor to charitable causes. After forty-four years of marriage, Andy died on January 24, 1989. Then in 1992, Mary was introduced by friends to a widower, Frederick Haag. Fred was born in Hamburg, Germany, but his family had to flee their home and businesses during WWII. Fred became an American citizen,
formed the successful Haag Linen Company and invested in commercial real estate. After finding love again, Fred and Mary were married in Rancho Santa Fe on May 8, 1993. They enjoyed fourteen wonderful years together. Fred passed on May 20, 2007. Later Mary was diagnosed with Alzheimer Disease. When she heard the news she said, “Well, I don’t like it but there is nothing I can do about it. So I’m just going to be happy.” And she was. During years of declining health she continued to be her loving and gracious self, always smiling, friendly and happy. She truly epitomized outer and inner beauty. She peacefully succumbed on November 4, 2014, at 8:40 AM. Mary is survived by her brother, Jack and his wife, Arlene Benn, and other extended family in Kansas. She leaves many friends in San Diego whose lives she touched, and who will forever miss, “Our darling Miss Mary”. There will be a private scattering of her ashes at sea along with those of her late husband Fred. Andy’s ashes were scattered at sea at the time of his death. For those who wish to make a donation in Mary Andrew Haag’s honor the Salvation Army is suggested. Please sign the guest book online at www. legacy.com/obituaries/ lajollalight.

In other LJVMA news n Officers elected: Six new LJVMA board members took their seats during the group’s Nov. 12 meeting at Cuvier Club, including: Elsie Arredondo of Monarch Gallery; businessman and consultant Paul Burke; Michael Dorvillier of Symbio Financial; attorney Glen Rasmussen; Richard Walker of Richard Walker’s Pancake House; and Terrance Underwood of the Grande Colonial Hotel. In addition, the board reelected Claude-Anthony Marengo as board president and Krista Baroudi as secretary and elected James Niebling as vice-president and Burke as treasurer. n Cove odor monthly spraying: President Marengo said he met recently with Mayor Kevin Faulconer to discuss several issues, coming away with the mayor’s commitment to spray the bluffs at La Jolla Cove on a monthly basis — “whether it needs it or not” — to help manage the pungent, business-deterring odor there from a continual buildup of bird and marine mammal excrement, which has returned after a brief reprieve. “We’ve got some commitment that we can follow up on,” Marengo said. “A least if that doesn’t work then we (know) we

La Jolla Village Merchants Association is asking businesses in the Village to take part in its ‘Festival of Lights’ contest. No need for encouragement, Bowers Jewelers at 7860 Girard Ave. has been setting up an elaborate Dickens Village in its storefront windows for numerous years each holiday season. Daniel K. Lew
By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) is hoping to make the holiday season a whole lot brighter in the Village with its new “Festival of Lights” contest. Business owners in the Village of La Jolla are asked to festoon their storefronts and/or interiors with twinkling lights, trees, menorahs, dreidels, mistletoe, wreaths, garland and/or other holiday décor. “The whole idea is just to get more lights, more energy and more excitement in the Village,” said LJVMA Executive Director Sheila Fortune. The competition began Nov. 15 and runs through New Year’s Eve. Businesses can compete for a “Holiday Spirit Award” in each of the following categories: Best Small Restaurant (25 seats or less), Best Large Restaurant (26 seats or more), Best Nonprofit, Best Art Gallery, Best Hotel/ Motel, Best Retail Storefront, Best Professional Business and Best Overall Business. Businesses may also complete for the most “Likes” on the LJVMA’s Instagram page using the hashtag #LaJollaHolidaySpirit Winners will be selected by an
independent panel of judges at the end of the year and announced during LJVMA’s January board meeting. E-mail events@ lajollabythesea.com for a contest application, or phone (858) 454-5718.

Maregno said he and Fortune suggested to the mayor that the LJVMA collect a fee from business owners to regulate any signage they place within the public right-of-way (PROW), as the LJVMA currently does with tables, chairs, planters and other objects in the PROW. “We can then (stipulate) the size, shape and location that sign can (be),” Marengo said, noting LJVMA is the only business improvement district (BID) group in San Diego that does not allow or regulate signage within the PROW. “We’re the only one that says, ‘No way, Jose — you can’t have it,’ ” he said. Fortune noted that other BID groups in San Diego have established guidelines for managing signage in the PROW, which LJVMA could use as a guideline. n Permit streamlining effort: Marengo said he also met with the city’s Development Services Director, Robert Vacchi, to discuss his plan to have the LJVMA offer its services to prospective business owners trying to navigate the often cumbersome process of obtaining permits and other city approval for development

and renovations. He said many business owners find the process so daunting on their own that they take a proceed with the work first, and ask forgiveness later mindset. n Treasurer’s statement: Fortune reported total income of $88,076 from July to October, while expenses for the year were $82,864. “It’s really been a big, big change from last year to this year,” she said. “We’ve worked hard to generate more money, to watch our expenses and bring in more rent money, and it’s finally starting to pay off.” n Strategic planning: The LJVMA board voted to get a jump on 2015 and hold its annual strategic planning meeting during its next meeting, 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 10 at the Cuvier Club, 7776 Eads Ave. “We need to start thinking about subject matter — some things that we’d like to accomplish for next year, goals, anything new that we would like to do or improve,” Fortune said. “We’ve always been a little overzealous in our planning and our goals, so this year I’d like to kind of reign that in and pick a handful that we can really focus on. You guys have to run your businesses and by the time we put it all on paper it’s limited (as to) how much we can really take on.” Marengo also noted a paucity of “wild” and “exciting” ideas proposed during the 2014 strategic meeting. “Some of them we got to put in play and some of them we didn’t,” he said. “I think it behooves the new directors to hear some of those ideas.” The public is welcome to attend LJVMA meetings and learn more about the group’s activities. lajollabythesea.com u

Vikings girls tennis nets winning season By Keys Allan Congratulations to the La Jolla High School varsity girls tennis team, which added to its tradition of winning with a 2014 season victory. This year’s team ended up in the Premier Division (top eight teams in the county) for CIF playoffs and had a strong winning duel match record, winning 10 of 15 matches. Four of the five losses came after regular play was tied at 9-9, nine victories by each team and it was then necessary to go to a game count tiebreaker to determine the duel match winner. Here, La Jolla lost the tiebreaker four times in a row by a game or they would have had a 14-1 record. The team lost to Torrey Pines High in the CIF championship round as Torrey Pines went on to win its 25th CIF top division championship. Play in the top division was a big move up for the LJHS varsity girls team. In previous years, the team found itself competing in Division III or Division II at best, due to school size criteria. u

Wild Side ‘Teton Rush Hour’ by Thomas Mangelsen, Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming (2013)
Nature photographer Thomas Mangelsen marks 40 years, cautions against ‘bear selfies’ By Pat Sherman hile most people realize feeding bears is ill-advised (and illegal), the same standards of common sense apparently don’t apply when the opportunity arises to post a cool close-up of oneself with a grizzly in the background. Late last month, officials with the U.S. Forest Service in South Lake Tahoe issued an official warning notifying park visitors to stop taking bear selfies — a growing social media trend referred to as #BearSelfies. Award-winning wildlife photographer and conservationist Thomas Mangelsen, who opened his Images of Nature gallery on Girard Avenue in 1991, claims that in his 40 years in business, he’s never succumbed to the urge to snap a bear selfie, although he’s seen “hundreds” do so near his Jackson, Wyoming home, on the edge of Grand Teton National Park.

Think you know Seuss?
New exhibit has work never seen before! T From Museum reports
La Jolla Cultural Partners
o launch its 2015 Centennial Celebration, the San Diego History Center in Balboa Park will debut “INGENIOUS! The World of Dr. Seuss,” Saturday, Nov. 22. The whimsical, fun-filled exhibition will run through December 2015 and feature artwork by La Jolla’s beloved Theodor (Dr. Seuss) Geisel — some inspired by San Diego locales. The exhibition will also include familyfriendly activities based on his books’ underlying themes: Literacy, the Environment, Family, and Community, and a Dr. Seuss nook will host monthly readings by local celebrities. The show explores the breadth of Geisel’s artistic legacy, with a focus on images and artworks rarely, if ever, exhibited during his lifetime. Material is drawn from public and private collections, including the Dr. Seuss Archives at UCSD, Lyndon Baines Johnson Presidential Library, and the Dr. Seuss Estate, featuring rare and never-before-seen images from the 1920s to ’90s. “Ingenious” includes a selection of didactic panels highlighting little-known facts from Geisel’s multi-faceted career, along with authorized estate editions reproduced under permission from his family. “Dr. Seuss Enterprises is proud to bring this exhibition to Ted’s home for the people of San Diego to enjoy,” said Susan Brandt,
‘Martini Bird’ (left) and ‘Raising Money for the Arts’ by Dr. Seuss president of Dr. Seuss Enterprises, L.P. “Many locals know that Dr. Seuss lived here, and while they have read his books many have not yet seen his art. This exhibition will show the community another fantastical side of Dr. Seuss.” The History Center’s “CELEBRATE SAN DIEGO!” exhibition line-up also includes

New seafood and sushi eatery opens in Bird Rock By Kelley Carlson eafood lovers rejoice: There’s a way to satisfy cravings for fish tacos and sushi, in one restaurant. The family-owned Bird Rock Oyster and Sushi Bar opened for business just two months ago, and already it’s finding its niche within the community, developing a loyal customer base. Co-owners Gabriel Uribe and Albert Sandoval have been longtime connoisseurs of this fusion-style cuisine, and were eager to introduce the concept to La Jollans following the success of Uribe’s restaurant, Baja Oyster and Sushi Bar, in the South Bay. “People like to try something different; we’re here to offer that,” Sandoval said. “We want to give them something authentic and homemade,” Uribe added. To emphasize this, once a guest is seated, “We explain the different dishes and how we prepare them,” Sandoval said. Everyone receives a sample cup of the consommé, the seafood-based broth flavored with onions and cilantro that’s used as a base for the restaurant’s soups. For an instant soup, patrons can crumble some chips from the complimentary basket placed on their table and add it to the consommé. Those who want something a bit more elaborate are offered selections such as the Seven Seas Soup, which contains a variety of seafood, including shrimp, octopus, fish, scallops, crab claw,

Bird Rock Oyster and Sushi Bar’s Spicy Shrimp Tacos
Find it at the bottom of the online version of this story at lajollalight.com or visit www.bit.ly/otmrestaurants calamari and clams, plus vegetables. There are numerous traditional Mexicanstyle dishes on the menu, from burritos filled with chipotle shrimp to ceviche tostadas topped with smoked fish. One of the highlights is the Shrimp Fried Tacos, which Uribe said is much like the ones eaten on ranches south of the border. Then there are chef’s specialties, which include entrees such as Lobster and Clams Stuffed with Seafood. On a recent evening, the “Chef’s Creation” — which varies — was the Shrimp Rockefeller, a “comfort
food” dish that was perfect for a chilly evening. Shrimp and creamy spinach were enveloped by melted cheese, which had bits of bacon that added a hint of a smoky flavor. On the side were rice and salad. As the name implies, oysters are one of the main attractions, and they are served up in several different ways: half shell; stuffed with shrimp; “Rockefeller” style; fried; grilled; and the Kumamoto — a prized variety in the oyster world. And of course, there’s sushi — an entire page of the menu is dedicated to the Japanese delicacy. Many of these rolls are named after popular locations in Baja, including the Tijuana Roll (eel and cucumber wrapped in avocado) and the Cabo Roll (spicy tuna and cucumber, topped with albacore and avocado). One of the signatures is the Santo Tomas Roll, which contains yellowtail, cucumber and sprouts wrapped in rice, then garnished with spicy tuna, albacore, tuna and curls of avocado. Another is the K-38 Roll, which features soft shell crab, shrimp tempura, avocado and cucumber encased by rice, then decorated with spicy scallops. The Japanese theme also carries over into desserts, with Tempura Ice Cream and Cheese Cake Tempura. Lunch specials are available noon to 4 p.m. daily, with a halfdozen selections that range from the Garlic Octopus Burrito with rice and beans to the Nine-Piece Sashimi with Miso Soup. u

Cranberries: The tart, little darling of fall
W
ith Turkey Day around the corner, here are some tips and tricks for pulling off a flawless and fabulous Thanksgiving feast. Don’t be a Skinflint: Everyone loves an attention-grabbing centerpiece — a juicy, flavorful bird with crisp, golden skin. To achieve the latter, simply massage the skin with virgin olive oil, a fresh garlic clove, and season with coarse sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. With 15 minutes to go on the clock, brush the bird generously with some white vermouth to give a golden glaze thanks to the sugars in this fortified wine. For a crispier skin without the booze unwrap the turkey the day before cooking, and expose the skin overnight in the refrigerator. To prevent the turkey from getting too toasty create a tent by folding a large sheet of parchment paper down the center, and fanning it loosely over the bird. Repeat the process with aluminum foil and place it over the parchment. Tent the turkey at the start of roasting, and please, no Peeping Toms allowed. Only open the oven about 30-45 minutes before ETA, and remove the tent to allow for even browning … or roast the bird au naturale until the desired golden color is achieved, then tent at the end. Sage Advice: The quintessential herb of the holidays, the mighty sage, a bold member of the mint family, can be overpowering, so use judiciously. A little snip of this musky grayish-green leaf goes a long way with fatty meats and fowls for dialing up flavor, tempering gaminess and aiding digestion. Sage equally enlivens vegetarian dishes from risottos, stuffings and corn breads to roasted roots, potatoes and even ice cream. For the full flavor oomph, add sage toward the end of cooking or use the more pungent dried instead of fresh. Whip up a compound with organic butter, minced sage and spices, and insert under the breast skin of the turkey before roasting to
enhance tenderness and juiciness. Finger on the Pulse: Although mashed potatoes are traditional at Thanksgiving tables, start your own tradition with a blend of delicate heritage fingerling potatoes. Some popular varieties of these cute little stubby crescents resembling sausage-shaped fingers include goldenskinned Russian Bananas, Purple Peruvians, Swedish Peanuts and French redskins. Strut your Stuff: To stuff or not to stuff, that is the big culinary question every Thanksgiving. For those in favor of stovetop stuffings, your bird will roast more quickly and uniformly. As well, you don’t have to worry about cavity protection. If the stuffing isn’t completely scooped out from the cavity within an hour after the turkey is removed from the oven, the environment is rife for the formation of bacteria and food-borne illnesses. For die-hard turkey stuffing lovers, simply pack the dressing in a cheesecloth bag and insert in the cavity. This not only prevents sticking to the insides, but makes for easy removal when the bird is done. As a healthy change-up to high-carb dressings (i.e. bread and rice), try filling the cavity with fresh herbs and hearty root vegetables (carrots, parsnips, turnips, celery root and kohlrabi), exotic mushrooms (porcini, oyster, Portobello, crimini), caramelized onions and pecans, roasted French chestnuts, or dried fruits (apricots, prunes, figs, cranberries). Pie in the Sky: A great place to cut the carbs at the Thanksgiving table is in the dessert. Swap out the pumpkin pie for an equally delicious pumpkin nutmeg mousse or flan, or simply make a crust with almond or hazelnut meal. Do a riff on pecan pie with a ground pecan crust, and pure maple instead of corn syrup. u — For more holiday recipes, or if you’d like to talk turkey, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Santa comes early for Inga fans Editor’s Note: This edition of Inga marks the fifth anniversary of her humor column in the La Jolla Light. To celebrate, congratulate and thank her for all the laughs and reality checks, she has provided us over the years with her lighthearted looks at life, we shamelessly and happily plug her new book, “Inga Tells All: A saga of single parenthood, second marriage, surly fauna, and being mistaken for a Swedish porn star.” It’s available at Warwick’s bookstore in La Jolla and at amazon.com “Inga Tells All,” goes a step further than her column has ever gone before and includes topics and text surely unsuitable for a family newspaper. Although many of the chapters include her greatest, award-winning Light hits, many more hold material never before in print. It’s a must-read for Inga fans, and would make a great guffaw-giving gift at holiday time!
Special appearance
Little House of Horrors
T
his time of year, we start hearing a rat family scurrying around our attic crawl space searching for warmth as San Diego’s version of winter begins. Honestly, these rats are such wusses. It’s SAN DIEGO you guys. It’s 60 DEGREES. They’d never make it as Detroit rats, let me tell you! Unfortunately, our wood shake roof is basically defenseless against them. All we can do is lob packets of rat poison up there and hope they don’t die in our walls on their thirsty way out. But as we recently discovered, we’ve got way worse things to worry about. At least the rats have the good manners to stay in the attic. We had no idea we’d been sleeping in our own little house of horrors. In 1955, the owners of our home incomprehensibly ignored the nice big lot and decided to convert the two-car garage into a wood paneled laundry room, master bedroom, and bath. (Who panels a laundry room?) I realize that wood paneling was the hot new thing in 1955, now regularly disparaged on HG-TV shows. And with good reason: it gives rooms the charm of a root cellar. While the rest of our house has been beautifully upgraded over the years, we never did much with the master bedroom other than skylights, shutters, and several replacements of carpeting over the cement slab. We just couldn’t see spending a lot of money on what was basically a garage room since any sane person would put a
second story on the house and re-convert the room to a garage. Somehow, we were never those sane people. Frankly, I had always craved a bedroom oasis. But I feared that no matter what I did to this room, it was still always going to exude “garage.” Besides the dark paneling, it was north facing, which meant it got sunlight like never. While we were away a few months ago, our son and daughter-in-law stayed in our bedroom when they came down with the kids one weekend. Afterward, my daughterin-law suggested our bedroom was such a depressing cave that a bear faced with wintering there might elect not to hibernate. It had been Olof’s and my observation that if we left the paneling long enough, it might go away on its own. That’s because our wood-walled bedroom is the termite version of the 72 virgins. Some nights I could swear I heard gnawing. We’ve tented the house but think our termites have developed a mutational fondness for poison gas. But given our son and daughter-in-law’s vicious assessment of our sleeping quarters, we decided after three decades to paint the wood paneling a nice creamy white. “Don’t rush into anything,” my son cautioned drily. As everything was moved out of the bedroom, bath, and laundry room, there were only more surprises of the really bad kind. Although our house is regularly

cleaned, a hefty case of mildew covered the walls behind the heavy bookcases (bolted to the wall so they won’t crush us in an earthquake) while the termites had pretty much devoured the baseboards back there in their own happily secluded arthropodal Xanadu. A creepy netherworld of spiderwebs resided behind the armoire. This is, I have to say, the downside of living in the same place for decades. Maybe everyone should be required to move at least every 10 years if for no other reason than to find out what’s living behind your furniture. In our defense, everything had been moved 12 years before when we’d replaced the bedroom carpeting. Maybe we need to start scheduling pre-emptive pestilence services every six. The mildew (the peril of living 260 steps from the Pacific) was bleached into oblivion, while the termites (and any residual arachnids) were dispatched in heartlessly cruel ways. Painting was the easy part. Of course, that might be because we didn’t do it ourselves. Home improvement projects are nothing if not a case of dominoes. Not to mention that everything you improve makes
something else look suddenly shabby. And that’s exactly what happened with our lovely white shutters, probably one of the few charming features of our bedroom. Was it my imagination or did they suddenly look yellowish next to the offwhite paint? But they don’t call Olof and me the Bobbsey Twins of Collective Denial for nothing. “Do the shutters look yellow to you?” I queried Olof. “Nope!” he replied, knowing where this conversation was going. “Me neither!” I said. Anyone who could live with gnawing for three decades could probably live with yellowish shutters. And so it is finally done. Oasis? Probably not. But no longer a Little House of Horrors, either. All three rooms are exponentially lighter. Our bedroom is probably the most termite- and mold-free room in San Diego at the moment. Except for rats, mold, and termites (and maybe earthquakes and fires), San Diego really IS paradise. And as for the rats: you’re next. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

Girls raise awareness, funds for education in Nigeria By Ashley Mackin In recognition of the International Day of the Girl Child (Oct. 11) — a United Nations event aimed at empowering adolescent girls across the world — five girls representing La Jolla High School and Muirlands Middle School tasked themselves with raising awareness about the struggles girls in Nigeria face trying to get an education. They are also raising money to send girls to a school facilitated by the non-profit organization The Center for Girls Education, under the auspice of Champions for Change. In the months leading up to the International Day of the Girl Child, La Jolla students Isha Raj-Silverman, Sofia Rodriguez, Amaya Duncan, Emma Fish and Sabrina Duong researched the challenges Nigerian girls face and engaged in a cultural exchange in which the American and Nigerian girls posed questions to each other about their lives and what education is like in their respective countries. The girls presented their findings at the International day of the Girl Child celebration, held at USCD. “We wanted to learn about their experiences in getting an education and why it’s worth it to them despite the dangers involved,” said Isha, a freshman at La Jolla High. “They really want to get an education — even though they could be kidnapped — because it’s a way for them to empower themselves and help their communities.” (The kidnapping of 276 girls by Islamist extremists Boko Haram in April has sparked global outrage and an online campaign, Bring Back Our Girls. The girls
Isha Raj-Silverman, Emma Fish, Sofia Rodriguez and Amaya Duncan were taking exams at a boarding school in Nigeria at the time of the kidnapping.) Because the school is privately run, Isha said it is a safer alternative to most schools in Nigeria, but the girls are still aware that they face danger in getting there. “One girl said she walks miles to school every day despite the danger. It’s that important to them,” Isha said. “Getting an education is a way for them to escape some of that and a way for them to contribute to their community. Some of the women we spoke to said by being educated they could help other women facing the same issues.” Isha recalled one girl who said she wanted to be a doctor because women in her northern Nigeria village were dying because their husbands didn’t want them going to a male doctor.

Emma, an eighth-grader at Muirlands, said she was taken aback by one of the questions sent to her from Nigeria. “They asked if we got flogged for breaking school rules,” she said. “Flogging was something we never heard of.” Sofia, a freshman at La Jolla High, added that there are some areas In Nigeria where there is only one school, so flogging (whipping as a means of torture) was preferable to being expelled. “I knew that there were some countries where girls couldn’t get an education … but I didn’t realize that even in countries where it is allowed, it’s still dangerous for them,” said Amaya, also a freshman at La Jolla High. Although the International Day of the Girl Child has passed, the La Jolla girls intend to continue their efforts. They
discussed starting a school club and speaking at assemblies to raise awareness — and hopefully some money. “It only costs 24 American dollars to send a girl in Nigeria to school for a year (through The Center for Girls Education),” Sofia said. “I feel like there is more we should be doing, and I’d like to try.” The girls also plan to research other countries in which they could offer help with getting girls a formal education. Isha spearheads the group, and said she has had a longtime interest in the topic. “My interest started when I was 11 and I heard about Malala Yousafzai (the human rights advocate who was shot in the head while attempting to go to school in Pakistan) and I realized she was only a few years older than me and she was shot just for going to school,” Isha said. Upon further research, she found out the shooting happened a few miles from where her grandfather lived. “In another life, that could have been me,” Isha said. “I could have been shot. I could have been barred from getting an education. “I identify as a girl who is good at schoolwork and academically oriented. To have that taken away from me, to not be able to read — which is one of my favorite things to do — shocked me because I don’t know what I’d be doing if I wasn’t getting an education and didn’t have that part of my identity.” Students keep in contact with their Nigerian counterparts and continue to raise money for the cause of sending girls to school. u

From Nature Photographer, B1 “I see lots of people here taking selfies with their iPads and iPhones, turning their backs on bears that are way too close,” he said. “They try to get closer because they want to see the bear in the frame, which is, quite frankly, not very bright. They don’t understand the real danger of that — and it is a real danger.” Although bears rarely attack people, Mangelsen said it does happen when they are taken by surprise, or if they feel their food source or young are threatened. He said most attacks on humans are over food, as was the case Oct. 27 when Wyoming Game and Fish Department officials shot and killed a young male grizzly known as “760,” who repeatedly ventured into developed areas. Critics — including Mangelsen, who is compiling a book about the family 760 was born into — contend the bruin did not meet the criteria for being killed. The bear was shot after he ventured into a yard and pulled a hunter’s deer from a tree. When approached, 760 didn’t back down, though he also didn’t attack, Mangelsen noted. “I thought that was a mistake,” he said of the shooting. “It has spurred on online petition from people who want an explanation for the decision to euthanize the bear. … It did what bears do — it protects its food. “There’s a lot of people who are fearful of wolves, bears or cougars. So much of it’s fear-based and not science-based.” Although Mangelsen often photographs his favorite, four-legged lugs of fur — polar

is Living near the Water Worth the cost? Many people fantasize of one day owning that dream beach house. The one where you swing open the grand French doors in the back and within steps your toes are sinking into the sand. Or maybe the one where you sit out on the back deck and admire the view of the sunset sinking into the Pacific.
But of course, what holds most people back from living that fantasy is the exceptionally high cost of waterfront property. But just how much more does it cost to live near the water? And is that added cost worth it? The Price A new study by Zillow reports that a waterfront house in San Diego costs 240% more than the median-priced home. To be clear on what constituted “waterfront” property, Zillow defined it as a home located within 150 feet of the waterline, separated only by a road with a speed limit of less than 25 miles per hour. What that translates to locally is most of the properties in the Mission Bay area as well as around the San Diego Yacht Club on Shelter Island. This study, however, is a bit limiting, as there are
still hundreds or additional beautiful properties in the San Diego area that are near the water and/or have a breath-taking view of the ocean, like the Bird Rock area of La Jolla for instance, that is situated on a cliff overlooking the Pacific. According to Zillow, the median value of a San Diego waterfront home is $1,924,500. That’s nearly 3.5 times the median for all other single-family homes. This gap in price is the second-largest in California (behind only Long Beach) and seventh-highest in the country. Zillow, however, is not always the most reliable source of housing prices. If you are in the market for a house in San Diego, the better source of information is an active, experienced real estate professional who is out in the field every day, seeing
what is available, selling, and at what price. The Reward So the million-dollar question, no pun intended, becomes – is living near the water worth that huge increase in cost? Before looking at dollars and cents, you can’t overlook the added emotional value when living near the water. Nothing compares to the peace and tranquility that comes with such a lifestyle: waking up to the sound of waves crashing, walking out your back door or taking a short bike ride to stroll along the sand and play in the water. And the views, which are among some of the most majestic in the world, are priceless. Column continued on: www.lajollalight.com/news/real-reliable-results/

LA JOLLA LIGHT - NOVEMBER 20, 2014 - Page B19
Time in La Jolla ■ Thomas Mangelsen (pictured) will celebrate four decades of photographing everything from African game and Indian tigers to seals and pelicans during a book signing 5 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 6 at his La Jolla gallery, 7916 Girard Ave. While in La Jolla, Mangelsen said he loves photographing local wildlife, including seals at Children’s Pool beach and pelicans during their spring breeding season, when their plumage is at its peak color. “A friend of the gallery has taken me up a couple of times in his helicopter,” he said. “Recently, we got to do some aerials along the (La Jolla) coast.”
‘Flipping Out’ by Thomas Mangelsen, Sea of Cortez, Baja California (1997) bears — in cozy, playful postures, he knows and respects that, in the bear kingdom, these arctic wanderers are a top-tier threat for humans. “They’re quite different than grizzly or black bears,” he said. “They’re true carnivores. They live on meat (and) rarely eat grasses. … If you’re on foot, you’re alone, and you’re in the arctic, you’re potential meat.” Mangelsen said he has twice been stalked by polar bears while in the field. Once, while walking on the shores of the Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada, he and his girlfriend surprised a polar bear obscured by bushes. The bear followed the couple over the tundra in what would be Mangelsen’s longest walk back to a car, ever.
“That was kind of scary,” he recalled, noting that if encountering a bear in the wild, the best thing one can do is to make oneself appear tall and yell; the worst is to run. “We didn’t have any bear-spray or a gun or anything,” he said. Mangelsen recalled another close call while on assignment for National Geographic, in which his close friend, the late La Jolla resident Spence Wilson (manager of The Cove Theatre) came to his rescue. A film crew was interviewing Mangelsen when he noticed a mother bear and three cubs approaching in the snowstorm, and began taking pictures. Wilson was standing watch in the distance, when he saw “a gnarly old bear with worn teeth” stalking the crew from the opposite direction.
Department of Toxic Substances Control
Public Notice
“We didn’t see it, but Spence saw it and he yelled at us,” Mangelsen recalled. “We dropped everything and scrambled up a staircase to the top of the buggy. So, Spencer kind of saved the day on that.” Among Mangelsen’s favorite bear shots are his image of a bear at the top of a waterfall near Anchorage, Alaska, jaws agape as a salmon leaps from the stream into its mouth — a shot that took a week waiting in the lurch to capture. “It happened so fast that I was never sure that I actually got the picture until a month later when I got the film back,” he said. “That has kind of become my iconic picture, my logo, which I use for my business cards and signage.” Such patience has paid off for Mangelsen,
whose accolades include the BBC’s prestigious, international Wildlife Photographer of the Year award (1994) for his picture of a polar bear being trailed by an arctic fox. Arctic foxes often follow polar bears through the winter season, living off their seal kills, Mangelsen explained. “If this bear isn’t a good hunter, then pretty much the fox has to find another one or it will starve to death,” he said, noting that, at times, the bears seem to welcome the companionship. “Every once in a while the polar bear will lunge at the fox, but it scampers away,” he said. Mangelsen sold his first portrait — a Canadian goose in mid-flight — in 1975, opening his first store three years later in Jackson, Wyoming. Mangelsen.com u

Investment Strategies that Withstand the Test of Time
The mission of DTSC is to protect California’s people and environment from harmful effects of toxic substances through the restoration of contaminated resources, enforcement, regulation and pollution prevention
EMERGENCY PERMIT VERTEX PHARMACEUTICALS 11010 TORREYANNA ROAD SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA 92121 On October 27, 2014, VERTEX Pharmaceuticals requested an Emergency Permit from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) for onsite treatment of expired laboratory chemicals at 11010 Torreyanna Road, San Diego, California 92121. The items to be treated are 10 grams of Nitrophenylhydrazine and 2 liters of Borane THF Complex. CleanHarbors has been contracted to conduct the treatment. The chemicals are potentially reactive and unsafe for transport. The treatment involves the addition of water and/or solvents to the container(s) to stabilize the chemicals. Once the chemicals are treated, they will be transported offsite to a proper disposal facility. DTSC has determined that the chemicals pose an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health and the environment, and therefore an emergency permit should be issued. The Emergency Permit is effective from November 19, 2014 through February 19, 2015. The Emergency Permit includes measures to minimize any adverse impact to the community and the environment. CALIFORNIA ENVIROMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA): DTSC has determined that the project is exempt from the requirements of CEQA and will file a Notice of Exemption (NOE) with the State Clearinghouse on November 19, 2014. The Emergency Permit, NOE, and VERTEX Pharmaceuticals’ request for this project are available for review at the file room located at: DTSC - Sacramento Regional Office 8800 Cal Center Drive Sacramento, California 95826 (916) 255-3758 CONTACT INFORMATION: If you have any questions or concerns, please contact: Hai-Yong Kang Tammy Pickens Jorge A.

Shakespeare goes to prison and all’s well that ends well

By Diana Saenger For a few short hours on a recent Thursday, the daily regime for more than 100 inmates at Centinela State Prison was drastically altered. The inmates were brought into the prison gym to partake in the Old Globe’s touring production of Shakespeare’s “All’s Well That Ends Well,” part of the Globe For All program. Envisioned by Globe Artistic Director Barry Edelstein, the touring production has made its way through San Diego, presenting at several underserved venues. Getting permission to bring actors, cameras and media into the prison facility took some work, but was welcomed by the prison staff. After walking through several buildings and showing I.D.s, the group met Richard Dubbe, public information officer at Centinela, which is part of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Dubbe, who has worked in the prison for 19 years, welcomed The Globe team and media, informing all about how the day would proceed and offering some insight into the prison. He said the prison houses about 3,500 inmates, but a few years ago that number was more than 5,000. These days, many of those who commit low-level crimes go to county jails. Centinela has 1,300 employees and 625 officers. When asked what a program like Globe For All does for inmates, Dubbe said,

The King (Kushtrim Hoxha) has a conversation with Helena (Erin Roché) in the Old Globe’s touring production of Shakespeare’s ‘All’s Well That Ends Well.” “Programs in the past have been religious or self-help based, but this is the first time we’ve had something like this. It will be interesting to see how this play is received.” Escorted to the gym, The Globe team got to work. The actors placed tape on the floor to mark off an invisible stage and set up props and made a few costume changes. The inmates chosen to see the play volunteered. With such a unique situation about to begin, prison officials, inmates, actors and director Edelstein, were anxious to see how it would play out. Most of the audience had never seen a theatrical production, much less one as highbrow as Shakespeare. Would they laugh at the right time? Understand the plot? Fall asleep? Ultimately, enjoy it? Actors worked to answer these questions as they sifted through the seated inmates, talking about plays, Shakespeare, what to expect, who their characters were and things in general. It took a while for the inmates to get the gist. As the story unfolded and some of the scenes were full-on comedic, the inmates began to laugh out loud. The scene between Bertram (Adam Gerber) and Diana (Allison Layman), his “supposed” betrothed, had the men loudly clapping and focused on the story from thereon. Several expressed their gratitude to the actors and thanked them for entertainment beyond their expectations. Ken Phillips, Community Resource Manager with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, was one of the principals who green-lighted this activity. “We’re interested in things that make better opportunities for inmates,” he said. “It’s a rehabilitative program, and this is a new idea. We like to assist those here any way we can to change their ideas or thoughts, and to do that we bring in positive activities.” Inmate Tyrone Rogers commented, “To bring entertainment that will uplift the spirit of the inmates and give us an opportunity to see something different is great. I’ve seen a few Shakespeare plays, not sure I’m a fan, but maybe the performance
today will change my mind.” The activity was also an eye-opener for cast members as they mingled among the inmates. “This has been very surreal for me,” said Kushtrim Hoxha, who portrayed the King of France. “In doing this in front of people who are not able to see Shakespeare, it hits me, and I appreciate even more the thing that I do. We are all privileged to be going to these places and performing. I think people should be entitled to watch Shakespeare — money or not — so this is a great idea from Barry and The Globe.” The cast included recent Old Globe/USD M.F.A. Program graduates Meaghan Boeing (Countess, Soldier, Priest, Mariana), Adam Gerber (Bertram), Kushtrim Hoxha (King, Interpreter), Stephen Hu (Lafeu, Soldier), Allison Layman (Diana, Physician, Soldier), Erin Roché (Helena), and Robbie Simpson (Parolles); Old Globe/USD alumnus Christopher Salazar (First Lord Dumaine); Monique Gaffney (Renata, Widow, Physician) and Albert Park (Second Lord Dumaine). Warden Amy Miller, whom colleagues say focuses on the positive, was pleased with the event and hopes to have it return. “Definitely a world-class production,” Miller said. “This is something that, hopefully, sparks interest, helps the inmates see a different side, a different part of the world that maybe they’ve never considered, and to branch out and consider different things, maybe grow and learn. If they’re here just for a good time, that’s OK, too, because prison is a difficult place to be.” The prison has four facilities and Miller hopes to have all of them get the opportunity to see a play. “And maybe even form a partnership to get inmates involved in theater,” she said. “People underestimate the value of speaking skills and how to communicate. A large percentage of these folks are going to have to go into a community and do job interviews, and tell people ‘we are felons, but we have skills, and a reason to be hired.’ ” Edelstein was thrilled the inmates responded so well to the show, and hopes to take the show to a women’s prison next. u
