It Takes a Village
Merchants call on Town Council to join Cove stench fight By Ashley Mackin La Jolla Village Merchants Association Director Sheila Fortune took center stage at the La Jolla Town Council meeting Nov. 14, to update members about the infamous stench situation at the Cove. She surprised some with the charge that, at this point, La Jollans must take matters into their own hands. Fortune explained what people could do about the sea lion population causing the noxious odors. First, she said, they can walk on the bluffs to deter the sea lions from resting there. “I got a letter last week from the city letting us know it is legally OK for people who would like to cross over the fence there to go onto the bluffs,” she said. “But if you do that, do not yell, scream or bother any of the wildlife on the rocks.” This admonition in reference to allegations that restaurateur George Hauer was yelling at sea lions during his Nov. 6 stroll on the bluffs. “The Merchants Association does not want See Cove Stench, A12

Working Toward the Cure
Past, present and future of breast cancer under the microscope By Ashley Mackin At a recent luncheon honoring Dr. Doris Howell of La Jolla (founder of the Doris Howell Foundation for women’s health) fellow wellbeing advocate Dr. Anne Wallace gave a presentation on the past, present and future of breast cancer. Director of the Breast Care Unit and Professor of Clinical Surgery at UC San Diego, Dr. Wallace opened with the point “this field is changing really rapidly.” “If I gave this presentation six month ago, I’d have to change the whole thing,” she told the gathering at La Jolla Country Club. “There’s a lot to breast cancer, it’s not just a matter of diagnosing or doing reconstructing, it’s looking at a patient from a lot of different aspects.”
Who’s at risk?
five percent of what she did when she was 18 years old. “I always kid and say I would like to have a study that puts exercise against alcohol to see if you can exercise off your alcohol,” she joked. Once risk is determined, there is a mathematical model some doctors use that takes in all risk factors and issues a number indicating one’s overall risk of developing breast cancer, she said.
Screenings and prevention Dr. Anne Wallace discusses the latest findings on breast cancer at a Nov. 6 luncheon honoring health pioneer Dr. Doris Howell. Ashley Mackin clear relationship between diet, obesity, exercise and alcohol (to the risk for developing breast cancer).” When it comes to alcohol consumption, she said four drinks a week are considered cause for a slight risk increase,
and seven drinks a week a significant risk increase. However, exercise can help decrease the risk of cancer. Dr. Wallace said a woman’s body size factors in, too. An adult woman should not weigh more than
In an effort to further personalize the approach to breast cancer, once a person’s risk level is determined, doctors can implement different screening strategies, depending on the patient’s breast size and density. She said in California, there is a law that mandates patients be told if their breasts appear dense on mammograms so they can
be counseled on additional imaging techniques. Dr. Wallace said she uses a MRI machine on many of her patients. “MRIs are now used for women who have dense breasts, high-risk women or women who present with something in the lymph nodes,” she said, showing slides of how breast tissue with a small tumor looked after a mammogram, and then how it looked after an MRI. The MRI indicated there was cancer present in much of the breast tissue. In addition to screenings, those with in an increased risk of developing breast cancer can also undergo chemoprevention and surgical prevention. “Chemoprevention basically means getting drugs to somebody so we can lower their risk for breast cancer,” she said. When it comes to surgical prevention, Wallace said there is an attitude of

s
Risk factors, as well as how those risks can be quantified, has changed dramatically over the years,
Dr. Wallace reported. She said scientists know quite a bit about the role genetics play in the risk for developing breast cancer, but the scientific exploration of the “BRCA” gene has changed the game. She said someone with a BRCA gene — which actress Angelina Jolie famously announced she carries — has up to an 87 percent chance of developing breast cancer. However, “This gene is associated with other cancers, too, like melanoma and prostate cancer or pancreatic cancer,” Dr. Wallace said. “Some women don’t have breast cancer in their family, but they might have these other cancers in their family, so we’re putting the word out … to make sure you take a detailed family history.” In addition to family history, other risks are also becoming clearer. “What we didn’t know until very recently is that there is a
www.lajollalight.com old-is-new-again. “We can remove the ovaries (of high-risk women) when they are done with childbearing,” she said, adding that surgeons in the 1950s removed women’s ovaries for breast cancer riskreduction and everyone thought that was appalling. “Then data started coming out to suggest that ovarian shutdown is very good for breast cancer (prevention) in extremely high-risk women,” she said. Similarly, women can elect to have their breasts removed through a bilateral mastectomy. However, she explained there was a paper published in 2010 that showed when women have a mastectomy to reduce their risk for breast cancer, it doesn’t guarantee an extended lifespan. “So when Angelina Jolie chose to have her breasts removed, her statement, ‘I did it because I want to live,’ was a little misleading,” Dr. Wallace said. “The statement, ‘I didn’t want to put my kids through me having cancer,’

is more correct.”
Removal and repair However, she said perhaps women are jumping to this solution a little too quickly. “We are in a little bit of an epidemic of doing these very radical surgeries right now. I think some of it is we’ve gotten very good at reconstructing, but the rest of the world does not do as many bilateral mastectomies as we do,” she said. Other options for cancer removal include radiation, which has been improved in recent years, especially for larger-breasted women. Thanks to better technology, instead of increasing the amount of radiation to accommodate the larger amount of breast tissue — which can expose the heart and lungs to radiation — radiation can be localized to specific areas of the tissue. Whether patients have a lumpectomy or mastectomy, there are also several developments in reconstruction. Dr. Wallace said there is a new breast implant

(nicknamed “the gummy bear implant”) that the FDA approved in March. It has an anatomic shape, which it keeps when placed upright, and does not collapse. It is implanted higher up on the breast for a more natural look and does not have liquid inside, so if it breaks, there is no leakage.

Looking ahead Dr. Wallace said the future of breast cancer is in understanding biology. “Ten years ago, if you had a threecentimeter tumor (of a certain type), you got chemo because it was three centimeters. Now we are sending that tumor for genetic testing and … that tells us if chemo is going to be effective. That person can go on a drug (instead).” She said there are new drugs in the works that focus on specific biological signatures of the tumor. “That’s where we are going in cancer; finding specific care for a specific tumor as opposed to the same thing for everybody.”

Secrets of light-emitting sea worms
little-known marine worm that produces a dazzling bioluminescent display in the form of puffs of blue light released into seawater. Found around the world in muddy environments, the “parchment tube worm” — so-called because of the opaque, cocoon-like cylinders where it makes its home — produces the light by secreting a slimy bioluminescent mucus. In one study, researchers characterized specific features of the worm’s light, tracing back its generation to a specific “photoprotein” tied to bioluminescence. (Finding published in the journal “Physiological and Biochemical Zoology.”) Another study focused on the general biochemistry and optical properties of the light production showing that the mucus produces a long-lasting glow of blue light unique to the shallow coastal environment where bioluminescence is usually produced as short-lived flashes of green-spectrum light. Most intriguing of all is the discovery that riboflavin (aka vitamin B2) is a key source of the light production. The worms are not able to produce riboflavin on their own — only plants and microbes can do this — therefore the worms must acquire the vitamin through a food source or from symbiosis with bacteria. (This study published in the journal “Photochemistry and Photobiology.”) Further investigations are targeting intricacies of the chemical reactions behind the light production and methods to synthesize it in the laboratory. — More information at http://bit.ly/ HW3H5j

Key part of deadly Nipah virus revealed What began as a summer internship project designed for an undergraduate student evolved into a one-year study of one of the world’s deadliest, but little known, viruses. Researchers at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have now solved the structure of a key protein in the Nipah virus — showing how key pieces of the virus’s machinery are oriented and tethered together — which could pave the way for the development of a muchneeded antiviral drug. The Nipah virus is an emerging pathogen found in Southeast Asia. The first outbreak was in 1997, followed by yearly outbreaks since then, with increasing mortality rates. Carried by fruit bats, the virus causes only mild illness in pigs, dogs, cats, horses, goats and sheep, which also spread the disease. But in humans, lethality has ranged from an initial 40 percent to 70 percent and, in some cases, 100 percent. The medicalthriller movie “Contagion” is based on outbreaks of the Nipah virus. — Findings published in the Journal of Virology. More information at http://bit. ly/HXTtS0

Knee Rehab The ACL, anterior cruciate ligament, is one of four major ligaments of the knee responsible for stabilizing the knee when pivoting or planting.ACL tears are common in pivot-heavy sports such as basketball, soccer and football and may require surgery. Recovery from surgery can take 6-9 months. Even after surgery, patients can experience pivot-shift which is when the knee gives out during activity. As reported in Science Daily, orthopedic surgeons Claes and Bellemans, recently discovered the anterolateral ligament (ALL) located on the anterior of the knee after 4 years of study. An injured ALL can cause the pivot shift effect. Over the next several years, Claes and Bellemans will be developing a surgical technique for ALL injuries.

Bicycle Built for Two
La Jolla couple go tandem across the country for class reunion By Ashley Mackin When it came time for Hank Peterson’s 50th high school reunion outside Boston this year, he and his wife Carolyn wanted to make a “real” road trip of it and see the United States. So the La Jolla couple did just that — pedaling across the country on a tandem bike. “You see a lot a more when you are riding and get a lot more interaction with the people, and we do a lot of bicycling,” Hank said. “We’ve done trips and explored other parts of the United States, but this was by far the biggest trip we’ve done.” Departing Jan. 11, they had several spots they wanted to visit — and avoid — at specific times on the trip, Hank said. “We wanted to be in Houston in March for our grandson’s second birthday and then wanted to be outside Boston Sept. 14 for my reunion.” He joked that they wanted to be clear of the Mississippi heat by July. So they planned a route using a map provided by the Adventure Cycling Association, which has mapped some 40,000 miles of bike routes across the country. They went from La Jolla Shores to Florida, and then up through Washington, D.C. to upstate New York (where Carolyn’s brother lives), before making their way to Boston. Talk about a story to tell at your high school reunion! Carolyn said when they completed the
Hank and Carolyn Peterson start their 9-month, cross-country journey at La Jolla Shores Jan. 11 and ended up in Boston Sept. 14 for Hank’s 50th high school reunion. Courtesy journey and told people what they had done, the Petersons would get half-attentive responses, but 10 seconds later, people would say, “Wait! You did what?” To best accommodate each of their skill levels, Hank and Carolyn rode tandem. “The reason for riding tandem is that I’m a much stronger cyclist than my wife is, so we can do some challenging rides and we’ll get there at
the same time,” Hank said, admitting the trip and its vehicle were his idea. The twosome has taken tandem trips several times over the last 10 years, including trips across Europe, Napa Valley and the Oregon coast. “The Oregon trip was the prototype for this ride in terms of what we would take as far as gear and clothing,” Hank said. Determining they could not take much,
they established a network of friends (other cyclists and people they’ve stayed with in the past), so they could mail a box of clothes and supplies from place to place. The box went from San Diego to Texas to Washington, D.C. to South Carolina to Boston. While having an organized plan, including a route and a schedule, is important, being flexible is just as important, Carolyn said. She said because it was just the two of them, they were able to adjust the trip as needed. For example, Carolyn said if the weather was bad or if one of them wasn’t feeling well, they would wait it out wherever they were. “People would ask ‘what do you do if it’s a bad rain day?’ ” Carolyn said. “I would answer, ‘you walk up to the front desk and extend your reservation.’ ” Further, when Hank was looking at the routes, he noted that one section of the trip in New Mexico would be particularly challenging because of the mileage and the terrain. When Carolyn saw the proposed route, she said, “We can’t do that … next!” So they went another way that was better suited to their abilities. The Petersons, in their silver years, are confident in their biking skills, especially Hank. “I’ve always been pretty athletic. In my 40s, I had difficulties running, so I took up cycling,” he said. However, they did have one special experience involving a tandem bike 45 years ago: Hank rented one for their honeymoon.

From Merchants Association, A1
n Finances: LJVMA is completing an audit for the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2013, which should be finished and available for review in the next 60 days, Brady said. LJVMA Executive Director Sheila Fortune noted that the association is in the process of receiving roughly $52,000 in back grant money it was expecting from various agencies within the City of San Diego. The delayed grant money, and a shortage of projected ad revenue from the Information Center, contributed to the organization’s current cash-flow shortage, sending it temporarily into arrears on its rent. Fortune said she secured much of the delayed grant money with assistance from the city’s new business improvement district (BID) advocate, Liz Studebaker. “She’s helped quite a bit in the last six weeks or so to find a lot of this money, get it released, and find out why it was delayed,” Fortune said. The LJVMA has a contract to manage a portion of busi-
ness taxes funneled through the city for improvement projects within the La Jolla BID. There are currently about 1,260 businesses within La Jolla’s BID. BID assessments in La Jolla are projected to be about $145,000 this year, Fortune said. “We have to make quite a bit more to run the Information Center, to do our website and staff the Information Center,” she said. Coller said LJVMA is free to “raise funds by any other means — and it does … which it can use as it sees fit.” However, when spending BID money, LJVMA must follow strict rules established by the city and state, he noted. n Further cost-cutting: Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty is now subleasing the rear portion of the LJVMA’s Information Center on Prospect Street for $6,500 a month. In addition, the Information Center is closed on Mondays through winter. Both measures are expected to help the association regain financial footing. Meanwhile, Fortune and another LJVMA staff
member have relocated from the Information Center to more modest office space at 1246 Roslyn Lane, which the association is renting monthly in exchange for advertising in the Information Center. “We should be able to catch things up; we’ve put a little conservative spin (on operations),” Fortune said, adding that she will provide a revised budget for board members’ approval during the LJVMA’s strategic planning session (which replaces LJVMA’s December meeting). Marengo promised to present additional cost-cutting and revenue-generating ideas during the strategic session, such as pursuing community development block grants, which he said may be easier to obtain. The strategic planning session will be 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 11, at Couvier Club, 7776 Eads Ave. Coller said it is vital for La Jolla business owners to attend and offer their feedback on the association’s “preferred agenda” for the coming year. n Odor issue: Representatives from the office of Interim Mayor

by the city attorney’s office over dispersal of its funds. The report stated that $112,070 was at issue, including $65,323 — money that Promote La Jolla had held in trust to assist employers with parking for their workers — that was taken by First Republic Bank from a Promote La Jolla bank account to cover an overdue line of credit. Coller offered some sobering words for new officers and board members about the commitment required to return neglected aspects of La Jolla to their former glory. “La Jolla is dying — I mean that literally,” he said. “It has no flesh on the bones. … Whoever is on this board and stands for an officer position, has to make a really big commitment and try to drag other people into being involved.” Attorney Mark Krasner, who joined LJVMA in 2012, was elected vice-president (taking the reins from Nancy Warwick), while new board member Justin Stewart, a client services manager for Opus Bank, was
elected treasurer (taking over for Tom Brady). Krista Baroudi will remain board secretary.
www.lajollalight.com Todd Gloria and District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner briefed the LJVMA on their efforts to rid the Cove of its pervasive stench — which, this time, the city says, is coming from sea lion excrement at La Jolla Cove. Merchants are pushing for the city to remove a fence above the Cove that was installed about a decade ago, or at least install a gate in it to allow public access. Stacey LoMedico, the city’s new assistant chief operating officer, is expected to issue a decision in the matter this week, pending legal review by the city attorney’s office. “For years we had sea lions in La Jolla, but people had access to those cliffs and they weren’t actually colonizing and living on those rocks,” board member Krista Baroudi said. “Now, no one bothers them, they’re there round the clock and you’re getting that odor.” Lightner’s Communications Director Jill Esterbrooks said Lightner “definitely supports (granting) access to that area.” “We’ll be working closely with the mayor’s office and city staff to do that,” she assured. “Lightner) also is supportive of treating the cliffs, both before and after the nesting and pupping seasons. So, they’ll be some additional cleanups … but long-term we need a coastal management plan, so that’s what she’ll be looking at.” Though Marengo commended Lightner’s office for working with the former mayor to get the cleanup started, he said he feels the city is sliding

I’ve seen a little bit more effort from Gloria’s office than I’m seeing from our own council district, with all due respect.” Though a recent letter to the LJVMA and other community stakeholders issued by LoMedico assured that the public is already permitted to walk onto the cliffs (as long as no one is harassing wildlife), Coller noted, “Lifeguards and police can ask people to leave, or ask people to restrain what they’re doing.” Baroudi asked if walking onto the cliffs with a camera could be perceived harassment. “It is a fine line, and I’m not going to be the one to define it,” said Alex Roth, a representative from the office of Interim Mayor Gloria. “It’s going to be up to the lifeguards, based on
their own professional judgment under these various statutes … but I can tell you, just as that letter makes clear, the simple act of hopping that fence and being on those cliffs is not in and of itself (a violation).” Coller suggested that lifeguards monitoring the beach and cliffs be made “fully aware” of the statutes and provisions related to public access on the bluffs. “They are absolutely aware,” Roth assured. “They’ve been involved in all these meetings. … They were (updated) during every step of this process and they’ve seen drafts of this letter.”
Jolla Nights music, dinning and shopping events; the La Jolla Historical Society’s annual Concours d’Elegance auto show (April 11-13, 2014), and the Farmers Insurance Open golf tournament, Jan. 23-26 in La Jolla. (Tiger Woods is confirmed to play in 2014’s tourney, Coller said.) Board members Billy Borja and Claudette Berwin said the LJVMA should use the Farmers Open, which brings more than 110,000 people to San Diego, to apply “tremendous pressure” to city officials in regard to the Cove odor. Fortune said three years ago when LJVMA formed from the ashes of Promote La Jolla (which formerly managed La Jolla’s BID money), the association didn’t have the manpower and cohesiveness to form its own events. “We allowed everyone else to do the events that we used to do,” she said. “Now

they’re driving them and we don’t have anything, so we’re having to create our own events to create synergy and a name for ourselves.” Despite this month’s Haute La Jolla Nights event being canceled due to low turnout and dwindling sponsorship, board member James Niebling voiced support for continuing the monthly summer and fall street jams, comparing them to successful community-building events elsewhere in San Diego, such as North Park’s Ray at Night art walk and Little Italy’s Kettner Nights. “I think if we’re looking to hang our hat on something, Pillage the Village is great, but this is an opportunity for us to do something throughout the summer and we can extend it into the holiday time,” Niebling said, offering to assist with the Haute Nights moving forward. “I believe in it that much,” he said. “It may not bring (money) to the
registers that evening, but I think it creates awareness … and is really important for our community.” n Business reopening: Niebling’s interior design business, Esteban Interiors, 7605 Girard Ave., is scheduled to reopen this week after months of renovation. Niebling said he replaced a dying sycamore in front of his store with a cassia tree, the cost of which he said his landlord is deducting from his rent. “If you’re able to fund some improvement in front of your store, albeit small, there’s a possibility that your landlord would be willing to contribute to that,” Niebling said, adding that he would serve as a consultant for merchants seeking similar beautification concessions. “Whatever each individual business can do on a small basis could make a huge difference,” he said.

La Jolla Town Council From Cove Stench, A1 to push all the wildlife away, we just want to find a nice balance so we can live in a healthy environment, but also have our tourists enjoy the sea life and our beaches,” Fortune said. She told the council the City Attorney’s office is considering creating a gate in the fence at the Cove to make it clear that public access is allowed. A decision was expected on the gate Nov. 15, but it was delayed to sometime this week. Town Council President Cindy Greatrex said in support, “When you put the fence up, you took away the predator. When you take away the predator, you have more breeding and more feeding, and then after feeding comes more — (excrement creating the offensive smell).” Fortune said, “The seal lions are coming up higher on the rocks and the bluffs so the water does not come up to wash (the excrement) off. It has gotten really bad. We are

They might think this is a minor, gee-I-might-smell-something thing (until they get here).’ Susan DeMaggio looking to find a solution.” To this, council trustee Joseph Pitrofsky asked, “Do you guys have some sort of deadline? We have to resolve this situation. If we keep talking to the city council, they’ll talk to the state and the coastal commission and this could go on for years and years. What’s to stop it from being six or nine or 12 years (before something gets done)? We have to have a date.” Instead of focusing on one date, Fortune asked trustees to call the city every day. “Get on the phone with your city council
representatives,” she said. “You guys need to pitch in and call your city government.” Then she cited a recent TripAdvisor review that read, “If your city government does not handle this, you will become a ghost town.” Pitrofsky posed another question, “Does (City Councilmember) Sherri Lightner not care? Why don’t we invite the council to have a meeting at the Cove? They might think this is a minor, gee-I-mightsmell-something thing, (until they get here).” Fortune responded that whenever
she approaches the city with requests for funding, the requests often fall on deaf ears. “They say, ‘you have it all. You don’t need our money. You don’t need our time,’ ” she said. “You guys have got to get angry. You guys have got to get noticed. We are doing everything we can to fight this issue, but it’s going to take the entire Village to conquer this.”

First Vice President Nancy Gardener, after touting the success of the La Jolla Dancing with the Stars fundraiser, reported she received an e-mail from the director of catering at the Hilton where the event was held. “I’ve seen a lot of fundraising events, but boy did you have really engaged guests at this one,” she read. “The dancers were amazing and so much fun to watch, and the judges were witty, too. What a terrific evening and a sellout to boot.” She said the police are running the financials for the event and would provide a total soon on how much was raised. “We don’t have a final count by tonight’s meeting, but we will at the next meeting,” she said. n Coastal Access and Parking Gardener also reported, as a member of the La Jolla Coastal Access and Parking Board, that the list of 10 suggestions the group feels would best solve parking and traffic problems in La Jolla, has been narrowed down to four. Those suggestions will circulate to other community groups for feedback. — The La Jolla Town Council next meets 5 p.m. Dec. 12, at the La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. LaJollaTownCouncil.org

Luxury cars go leaner and sportier for 2014 By Marti Gacioch Designed to appeal to customers seeking easier-to-drive luxury cars, the Rolls Royce Wraith and the Bentley Flying Spur recently debuted at Symbolic Motors. Historically, Bentley and Rolls Royce have been heavier, more difficult to operate vehicles — and Rolls Royce automobiles were often quite long (up to 19 feet for a Rolls Phantom), necessitating the need for a chauffeur, according to Spencer Berke of Symbolic Motors. “The new Rolls Royce Wraith is an elegant, sportier, easier car to drive,” Berke said. “It appeals primarily to male businessmen and entrepreneurs, ages 40-50, who live a luxurious lifestyle and want a comfortable vehicle that they can drive everyday without any inconvenience.” The Wraith two-door coupe is based on the earlier Rolls Royce four-door Wraith. The coupe sports 630 horsepower and features a twin turbo V-12 motor. It is available in automatic and seats four people. Its stylish coach doors open from the opposite direction. Manufactured in Goodwood, England,

floor right now, and people can come in to see it and test drive it,” Berke said. “We’re taking orders, but customers ordering a custom car may need to wait four to eight
months for delivery.” Bentley’s 2014 four-door Flying Spur features a family-sized trunk that can easily carry four golf bags, a powerful W-12 twin turbo motor and an all-new body style. “Bentley remodeled and refined every part of the Flying Spur, making it look sportier and more aggressive to attract younger buyers seeking a sexier look,” Berke said. While the Flying Spur features traditional exterior colors like black and white, its interior colors are dazzling tones of sizzling reds and bright cinnamons. Besides Rolls Royce and Bentley, Symbolic Motors is also an authorized dealership for Lamborghini and Bugatti. “We get a lot of attention from people who want to see the Bugattis, especially the new Veyron,” Berke said. “It has a top speed of 270-plus mph, 1,200-horse power with a W-16 quad turbo motor, and it goes for $3 million.” Symbolic Motors, 7440 La Jolla Blvd. (858) 454-1800. symbolicmotors.com The Business Spotlight features commercial enterprises that support the La Jolla Light.

La Jolla HigH SCHOOL
District expands the search for new principal n Job posted in national education trade journals and online By Pat Sherman The search to find a new principal at La Jolla High School has taken longer than expected, with only two candidates from within the San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) applying for the position since the job was first posted on the district’s website Aug. 9. SDUSD is seeking a replacement for former La Jolla High principal Dana Shelburne, who was reassigned this summer following the release of a 52page audit of the school’s associated student body funds that found an array of missing or misappropriated school funds. The job was re-posted for the third time on the district’s website, Monday, Nov. 18. This time, it also appears on the national education job search website, EdJoin.org, as well as in the national education newspaper, Education Week, and in the publication of the Association of California School Administrators. The job postings will run through Dec. 20. A selection committee comprised of parents, teachers, school administrators and at least one student desired more candidates to choose from, SDUSD Communications Director Linda Zintz said. “They’re just hoping to get a larger pool of qualified candidates to draw from … to get the best qualified person,” Zintz said. The job will remain advertised with a salary range of $65,650 to $93,795 (based on education and experience). “Why more people from within the district did not apply, we really don’t have an answer,” Zintz said. “Maybe we’ll get some folks who are interested in moving to California.” On Nov. 18, SDUSD Superintendent Cindy Marten issued a memo stating that the district now hopes to have a new principal in place sometime in January.
The job listing for La Jolla High’s principal position states the salary range as $65,650 to $93,795.
“It will depend upon the candidates we are able to recruit for the position,” Marten said, adding that Area Supervisor and search committee member Julie Martel will conduct a paper screening as soon as the position closes on Dec. 20, prior to winter break. “We will then be prepared to hold the interviews in early January, right after the holidays,” Marten said. Pat Crowder will continue as interim principal through Dec. 20, and Carol Whaley will return as the interim principal in January until a permanent principal is selected and ready to begin. “Please know that we are all working together to ... find the right leader we know our students,
community and staff deserve,” Marten’s statement reads, in part. “We recognize that consistent, strong, stable leadership is the key to success for our students. I realize the impact of multiple transitions and interim assignments … (and) am confident that the time and thought we are putting into the selection process will have a longterm positive impact, even though it is creating a shorter term challenge.” Meanwhile, the selection committee will interview candidates this week for a vice principal at La Jolla High, to replace former vice principal Margaret Joseph, who is now serving as the new principal of Kate Sessions Elementary School.

‘Great’ minds say Cove cleanup is nature’s duty The La Jolla Children’s “Cess” Pool is under chronic and ongoing pollution advisory according to the San Diego County Department of Environmental Health. High bacteria levels in the beach water from the presence of harbor seals can give swimmers skin rashes and infections. A great white shark attacks a harbor seal a couple of miles off La Jolla WindanSea Beach. WindanSea Beach is 2 miles from the “Cess” Pool. Harbor seals are haute cuisine for great whites. Divers and surfers in wetsuits look like harbor seals to great whites. La Jolla continues to market the “Cess” Pool. “The Stench” is back, this time courtesy of excrement from sea lions vacationing at the La Jolla Cove. Great minds gather to solve this problem, including the Interim Mayor Todd Gloria, Councilmember Sherri Lightner and the La Jolla Town Council. They agree that sea lion excrement cleanup won’t work. They consider holistic harassment to shoo them away, but realize the sea lions would just move to another La Jolla beach. They therefore conclude there is no solution. On cue, Lightner announces that rains and high tide will wash the excrement away. Pete Ward La Jolla
Let the voice of reason prevail among La Jollans On Wednesday, Nov. 6, while a friend and I leaned against the white fence above the Cove, admiring the ruckus and play of barking sea lions, a trim and fit grey-haired man sauntered with some determination along the rocks below. At first we were too stunned to speak. With the sudden presence of a human, the exodus of birds and sea lions was immediate and dramatic. Shrieking birds took flight en masse, while the sea lions shifted and plunged off the edge of rocks with speed that seemed to defy their bulks. Some babies were slower, but waddled persistently and joined their parents in the sea. “That’s George, the guy who owns the restaurant,” my friend said. This friend, a lifelong La Jollan, devoted surfer and animal lover, was irate. “That’s illegal,” he announced, and marched off to alert a lifeguard. By the time of this pronouncement, George was confronting a dilemma: his mere presence alone was not enough to eject at least two of the largest animals. From my vantage point, I watched Mr. Hauer come closer and closer to the sea lions who hadn’t budged. This didn’t appear safe and, though I didn’t know the status of the law about walking on the rocks, I quickly agreed that his actions were dangerous and possibly illegal A lifeguard beckoned and called down to George, who willingly returned to the sidewalk. When my friend remarked, “You could have been bitten!” Mr. Hauer shrugged. I later heard that the police were called, the media alerted, and this incident played on local television.
OUR READERS WRITE After reading the Nov. 14 issue of the La Jolla Light, it became clear that George welcomed this exposure as the means to gain sympathy for his campaign to rid these rocks of wildlife and their excrement. What’s alarming is the possibility that he might welcome the bite from a startled sea lion as well. Mr. Hauer’s tactics, however well meaning, prompt me to share the above first hand observations, as well as my concerns about the pitfalls and opportunities of our unique La Jollan battles. Whether the smell from our magnificent Cove is a stench and stink, or the aroma of cherished wildlife enjoying their natural habitat, depends on whom I talk to. La Jolla’s stunning rugged, coastal beauty, abundant wildlife and intimate village life, arouse passions in many of us. For me, this place (which is home, on and off, for 35 years of my much longer life) acts as a wondrous elixir. But do we really want another decadeslong, costly, sometimes vicious and greatly fatiguing local war, mimicking the on-going seemingly endless dispute around the Children’s Pool? Meanness, bullying and selfrighteousness, on both extremes, distort real issues into pseudo-national politics, while the amazing Ellen Browning Scripps sea wall struggles to retain its dignity in the midst of this lack of resolution. George’s bar happens to be one of my adult children’s favorite. After recently reading parts of his blog, I admire the hard work, creativity, even love that seem to be behind the success of his restaurant over many years. And while I may admire his chutzpah in throwing his own person onto the rocks and into the middle of the controversy (with the intention to provoke strong reaction), I fear these passionate gestures could backfire. Only opportunists and fanatics would benefit if “business advocates” and “animal lovers” do not realize how much they have in common. (Most of us living here happen to be both.) Without real dialogue and consideration for the actual issues underlying the dispute, a backlash of boycotts and other shenanigans could undo any good that comes from a quick fix. Business and tourism gains, in the shortterm, could turn into their opposites over time. Level-headed scientists, business people, animal lovers, residents and others, could and should work together for a real and lasting solution. This issue is not the first or last rallying cry. Instead of stirring up a melodrama that smears our landscape, perhaps we could be a model of doing what is best for La Jolla. Robin Weiss La Jolla
www.lajollalight.com “City postpones vote on seal pup season beach closure,” which refers to the “plan promoted by the local lifeguards union that would install moveable boulders at Children’s Pool Beach that could be arranged alternately during pupping season as a barrier to protect the seals, while allowing access to the shoreline.” For the record, the California Coastal Commission has stated, in a Dec. 13, 2012 letter to the City of San Diego, “We are not in support of this alternative, as the placement of boulders on the beach would create a physical and visual barrier that would adversely impact public access. Additionally, it is unclear how this would mitigate the existing issues as the seals would still be free to occupy all beach areas and any effort to corral them in certain areas would be inconsistent with marine mammal protection measures. “Further, this alternative would face similar enforcement issues associated with the currently permitted guideline rope.” Without the Coastal Commission’s approval, this “boulder plan” can never move forward. Therefore, it is a moot point. Mike Gold San Diego
In response to city letter re: palm fronds cleanup
Coastal Commission nixes Children’s Pool boulder plan
Dear Ms. Laena Shakarian (council representative for City Council President Pro Tem Sherri Lightner): I would ask you to please contact the Street Division again regarding the fallen palm fronds. There has been no response to your request of Nov. 6 to clean these up. There are now several piles along Vista de la Mesa and nearby streets, as well as numerous scattered palm fronds throughout the neighborhood in need of removal. Insofar as ramping up tree trimming in the next budget cycle is concerned, I am of course all in favor of that happening. However, I am most concerned about the current situation. As I have said before, the falling palm fronds are not only a nuisance and a hazard once they reach the ground, they are a safety hazard as they fall. It is only a miracle that no one has been killed or injured by these falling fronds. I urge the city to take a far more pro-active stance toward this hazardous situation now. As far as (your suggestion that) my neighbors and I obtain no-fee permits to trim the trees ourselves, forget it. This is a problem that does not lend itself to an owner-by-owner solution, but needs to be approached in an organized neighborhood manner, and only the city is properly and sufficiently equipped to do this. Maintenance of trees in the city right-of-way is one of those basic city services, like trash collection, fire safety, police, water service and potholes, that we pay our property taxes for. Please give this matter your urgent and continuing attention. Marty Bloom La Jolla

Possible abduction attempt investigated by Rec Center Crime NEWS Responding to concerns from parents over a possible juvenile abduction attempt at the La Jolla Rec Center last week, La Jolla Light contacted the Rec Center and San Diego Police Department for information about the incident. A representative from the Rec Center, having not witnessed the event, said there were several versions of the story brought to their attention. Some parents report a man tried to take a four-year-old boy into the Rec Center men’s restroom. Other reports to Rec Center staff indicate one of two conflicting
scenarios — 1) a young boy was entering the women’s restroom and the suspected person showed him to the men’s room instead, 2) the boy was in the men’s room and the man in question helped him wash his hands by lifting him up to the sink. Police did not respond by deadline to verify the suspect’s account of what happened. Rec Center staff advise visitors not approach or touch other people’s children, regardless of intention. The staff also said the man was questioned by police who ran his record, finding no prior criminal activity. Rec Center staff said they woud continue to observe the man should he return to the center.

OBITUARIES
Marie Jean Hlavacek Holbrooke 1927 – 2013
Marie Holbrooke passed from this earth suddenly from natural causes on Tuesday, November 12, 2013, at her home in La Jolla. Marie was born to Frank and Ella Hlavacek in Chicago, IL, on July 7, 1927, and was raised in La Grange Park, Illinois. She had two brothers, John M. Hlavacek of Omaha, NE, and Frank A. Hlavacek, deceased. Marie attended Oak School and Lyons Township High School, graduating in 1945. Following her tenure at Lyons Township Junior College, Marie graduated from Indiana University in 1948. She majored in Mathematics and was also a member of the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority. Following graduation, Marie went to Bombay, India, to visit her brother, John, a correspondent with United Press International. Upon her arrival in India, October 6, 1948, she met her future husband, Marshall D. Holbrooke, who was stationed in India as a field representative for Pratt & Whitney Aircraft. The couple was married on November
19, 1949, at the La Grange Congregational Church. Following a year in Ft. Worth, Texas, they settled in La Jolla in 1951 where they raised their four children, Marsha (Ron) Winters, John (Winnie) Holbrooke, Helen (Patrick) Keohane and Carol Holbrooke (Dale Duffala). Marie treasured adopted son, Albert Thomas and his wife Beverly, and their five children. She had five grandchildren, Alexandra and Andrew Winters, Hilary and PFC Steven Holbrooke, USMC, and 2nd Lt. Christopher Keohane, USMC. Marshall predeceased Marie on December 7, 1994. To say Marie enjoyed travel would be an understatement. She had friends and family across the globe and enjoyed visiting, exploring and collecting new friends along the way. As well as hosting AFS International students, the Holbrooke home was a gathering point for extended family and friends. At home she was active in the Social Service League of La Jolla, continued her involvement with the AOPi sorority and American Association of University Women, San Diego Branch. Mrs. Holbrooke was the first woman president of La Jolla Lutheran Church where she sang in the choir. Marie was a loyal patron of the San Diego Symphony where she was recognized on her 85th birthday for her continuous subscription for over 50 years. She also attended La Jolla Playhouse and the Old Globe Theatre regularly and would post her enthusiasm for productions on her Facebook Page. A private burial, officiated by Pastor Mark Dahle was held this weekend at
El Camino Memorial. A memorial service will be held at La Jolla Lutheran Church at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please honor her with donations to La Jolla Lutheran Church, 7111 La Jolla Blvd., La Jolla, CA 92037, or Social Service League of La Jolla, 7441 Olivetas Ave., La Jolla, CA 92037, or the charity of your choice.

Lillian arrived in San Diego with her parents, Lillian and Raymond Tharp, in the early 1920s from St. Louis, Missouri. Some of the earliest memories were of trips to La Jolla on the streetcar with her grandmother to swim and picnic at the Cove. Growing up in San Diego, Lillian attended local schools and graduated from San Diego High School. Having an interest in all things medical, she found employment in the medical and dental fields until the onset of the World War II. For the duration of the war, Lillian worked for the American Red Cross and United Airlines. After the war she returned to the medical field as a dental assistant in Coronado, where, in 1946, she met her future husband, Lt. William Vogt, a naval officer returning to inactive duty. After a short courtship, Lillian and Bill were married in Sacred Heart Catholic Church and settled in
Coronado. Bill joined Robert O. Peterson in a partnership of drive-in restaurants called “Oscars”, a forerunner of what was to become the Jack-in-the-Box chain. When Bill was called back to serve as a Naval Intelligence Officer during the Korean War, Lillian embraced her role as a naval officer’s wife. She made a home for her small family wherever Bill might be stationed, and traveled happily to each new location. She most enjoyed the excitement and political significance of Washington, D.C., in the mid-1950s and 60s, where she made many lifelong friends and most enjoyed her association with the Naval Attaches Wives organization. However, Lillian never forgot her love for La Jolla. When Bill served his last duty assignment in San Diego, they built their home on the side of Mount Soledad and Lillian became active volunteering in their new community. She was particularly successful chairing fund raising luncheons and dinners for many community organizations such as the Social Service League of La Jolla, the Ladies of Charity, and the San Diego Symphony Auxiliary. She was also involved with Scripps Clinic Auxiliary, Salk Institute Auxiliary, the Salvation Army and the Assistance League of America. Additionally, she was a member of All Hallows Catholic Church and a Lady of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulcher. Lillian found time for recreation by being active in the Torrey Pines Women’s Golf Club and the Navy Women’s Golf Club at Admiral Baker Golf
Course, where she served as president and was credited with bringing about many improvements for that organization. Due to a stroke, Lillian was forced to forgo these activities, including her volunteering at the All Hallows Academy, where she particularly enjoyed working with the younger students. Ill health eventually confined her to her home where she spent the last years of her life. Most of all, Lillian spent a lifetime of loyalty and devotion to her many friends, family and especially her loving husband of sixty seven years. She had a long and eventful life, but will be longer remembered and missed by those who loved her. She is survived by her husband, William; daughter, Michele (Carl) Moss of Fallbrook; son, Robert (Teresa) of Napa; sister, Lorraine Rodda; five grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren. The family would like to thank the Scripps Hospice medical team for their comfort and professional care during Lillian’s last days. We would especially like to convey our gratitude and appreciation for the loving care provided by Lillian’s caregivers, Maria Muro and Noemi Adams, during the past several years. A memorial Mass was held October 25, 2013, at All Hallows Catholic Church. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to All Hallows Academy.

Future of La Jolla Village may not be a fairy tale where everyone lives happily ever after GUEST COMMENTARY By Peter Goldberger
O
nce upon a time, there were wonderful, vibrant restaurants and shops. You could grab tacos at Alfonso’s, enjoy art at the galleries, a steak at Azul’s, cocktails at George’s. Of course that was before the Odious Odor drove the visitors, businesses and money away. Before the La Jolla Stench permanently changed everything. No more coffee at Goldfish Point Café, fancy dinners at Eddie V’s, Peter breakfast at Brockton Villa. Goldberger It all began at the Cove. Initially insidious, two years of inaction ultimately sealed the deal. Yes, they did belatedly try a magic potion, but alas — too little, too late, and it only got worse. Then, once the growing stink from the exploding seal population at the roped-off Children’s Pool finally joined forces with the Cove Stench — well, the writing, as they say, was on the proverbial cave wall.
Sometime in the near future: Prospect Street and Coast Boulevard; La Jolla, California. Photo Illustration by Peter Goldberger
Word spread — first the East Coast, then worldwide: The New York Times published its story “La Jolla, CA: Hazardous to Your Health.” Then TripAdvisor warned travelers
to “avoid eating or breathing in the area.” Final nails in the coffin, local businesses could no longer hang on. Coast Boulvevard eateries and hotels were the first to go,
soon followed by the shops and restaurants on Prospect Street. Oh, you can still find a brave artist or two venturing out (in full face masks, of course). Or the occasional seal-watchers, noses clamped shut, on their way to SeaWorld to spend their money. There’s even a few lonely establishments — minus their balconies and open-air dining areas — hoping to catch the rare tourist who hasn’t yet heard the warnings (although their massive air-filtration systems, running 24/7, get pretty annoying and the view through their hermetically-sealed windows isn’t much different from the postcards you can safely buy elsewhere). But the gleeful kids prancing through Scripps Park are long gone, as are the workers, and shopkeepers, and hotel guests strolling the sidewalks with their sun umbrellas and Chamber of Commerce smiles. True, it’s been great for traffic congestion and sea life. So it’s hard to say whether things are better or worse now. Only very different. Peter Goldberger is a businessman, lawyer, writer, photographer and 41-year La Jolla resident who walks the Prospect-Coast route daily.

GIRLS VOLLEYBALL: San Dieguito High School Mustangs 3, La Jolla High School Vikings 1
Vikings fall to league champs, 3-1 n La Jolla High loses in first round of CIF playoffs By Ed Piper What happens when a young, inexperienced team looking up collides with CIF reorganization of playoff divisions by past performance rather than school enrollment? The La Jolla’s girls volleyball team gets caught in the rotors of the San Dieguito Mustang Avocado League champs, losing 3-1 in the first round of the CIF playoffs Nov. 13. The younger Vikings (1618 overall, 4-6 in the Western League), on the road, showed flashes of success, as they had during their season of growth and getting their footing: n Down 25-12 after losing the first game of a best-offive match, La Jolla battled back to win the second game 25-23 on a block by senior Simone Stavros, a serve by sophomore Amanda Polcyn, and finally Emma Willis’ kill on the clinching point. Willis totaled 8 kills on the night. Hitter-middle blocker Madeleine Gates, playing loose, showed some of her brilliance with a kill to send the Vikings up 24-21 during the comeback run of the second run. Gates had 11 kills in the match and registered a 42.2 percent kill rate for the season, an elite performance. n The red and black almost came back to salvage a win in the pivotal third game, eventually losing 2725. But not before tallying points on a tip and a kill by senior captain Clare Farley,
La Jolla High junior Emma Willis (7, right) hits versus San Dieguito’s Alia Newman Boulle and Amanda Colla in playoffs Nov. 13. Willis recorded eight kills. then a two-handed bump by senior Riley Young with her back to the net and her block after a long volley between the two teams to tie 24-24. n Remarked Farley at the conclusion: “We knew that it was going to be a tough match. I think that, at first, we were a little bit intimidated by the environment. The fans were a little crazy. But I think our team, being able to pull it together, take that (second) game, and come so close (in the third game) was a big accomplishment for us. It proved that our team has come together over the course of this season. We’ve been able to fight through tough situations like that. In the end, that’s what really matters.� The Vikings spent 2013 in a rebuilding mode, having experienced a lot of success in recent years. Facing powerful San Dieguito reminds them of the level they want to build back to next year. Gates, libero Helen Lee (injured and unable to play Nov. 13), Polcyn, and setter Chloe Luyties are all sophomores. Said Gates, obviously disappointed: “There were still times (after first game jitters, when the Vikings
played poorly) when we were down. It just didn’t (come together).� She agreed this experience in CIF will help next year: “Pressure — there will be more pressure situations. It’s good practice (for the future).� Said La Jolla coach David Jones: “It has been a tough season. We’re a pretty young team still. We’ve got 3 seniors, 3 juniors, 7 sophomores. So if you look at the bigger picture, we’re playing in a new division (Division 1) this year. Potentially, had we still been in Division 3, this might have been our year to take advantage of Cathedral Catholic. We’ve got some highlights of the season: we beat Vista Murrieta, which is one of the top teams in the CIF Southern Section just a week ago up in Redondo Beach. We are really an aggressive team when we pass. It all comes together. But that was missing a little bit.� n Game stats — Kills: Madeleine Gates 11, Clare Farley 9, Emma Willis 8, Simone Stavros 5, Riley Young 2, Amanda Polcyn 2. Assists: Chloe Luyties 13, Abby Waldburger 12. Digs: Polcyn 23, Waldburger 21, Farley 15, Sophia Eliopulos 7, Brynn Duguid 5, Stavros 3, Luyties 2, Amy Peckham 1, Gates 1.

Career as novelist comes to Hal Taxel in his later years Hal Taxel was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., the youngest of four boys. (“My poor mother,” he said.) He was an Eagle Scout and a member of the Scouts’ Order of the Arrow. He served in the U.S. Navy Aircorps after graduating from New York University, where he was a reporter for the school’s newspaper, captain of the NYU national champion fencing team — a NCAA silver medalist and fencing AllAmerican. Taxel attended Hal Taxel the University of Chicago graduate school and worked for a management consulting company specializing in newspapers and magazines. In the newspaper business in Texas, he went from Marketing Director to Sales Manager to Publisher. When that fizzled, he moved to La Jolla and taught at National University and served as general manager of the La Jolla Cancer Research Foundation. He was appointed a U.S. Bankruptcy Trustee by the Justice Department and handled Chapter Seven and Eleven cases. During that time, he had a novel published. For the past six years, Taxel has devoted himself to writing fulltime. He has had six of his novels published — all available on Amazon in print and Kindle. His latest is “Reuben’s Revenge, Crusade Against Corruption: Vol. 3.”
What brought you to La Jolla? Years ago I was the publisher of a daily newspaper in Texas, one of a group owned by Harte Hanks Newspapers. I was asked to move to San Diego to take over the management of a group of community newspapers and shoppers purchased by the corporation, and the La Jolla Light was one of those newspapers. I’ve been here ever since. What might you improve in town? I would have the seal and sea lion defecation cleaned once and for all and make sure the Cove was kept permanently free of smell. It is simply ridiculous that an educated and wealthy La Jolla community should allow this pervasive problem to exist.

The 25-year-old DeFrancesco plunged into the water at 3 a.m. at Samphire Hoe, near Dover, England, and made her final landing at Cap Gris-Nez, France at 2 p.m. Before putting her tired feet on
French soil, she had to swim in place for an hour, waiting for the currents to cooperate. And before that, she had to fight high waves, wind and three hours of sickness. But DeFrancesco was determined to finish.

Art, Culture and Controversy:
‘The Complete Frida Kahlo’ Exhibit By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt The word “icon” is much overused these days, but it certainly applies to the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), a cultural icon whose fearlessly personal self-portraits have made her face known around the world. She’s currently on view in Reno (“Her Photos”) and in Paris (“Art in Fusion”), side by side with her husband, painter/muralist Diego Rivera (1886-1957). Now, at NTC Liberty Station, there’s “The Complete Frida Kahlo: Her Paintings. Her Life. Her Story.” It’s a special exhibition of replicas of 123 of her paintings and more than See Frida Kahlo, B18

Let Inga Tell You
Ruining the family recipes
I
La Jolla Cultural Partners
have plenty of talents and I’m really not a bad cook so I’m not sure why I’ve never mastered baking. Maybe I gave up too easily when my pies ended up with the lattice crust floating like flotsam on a soupy apple sea. For years, I did everyone a favor by ordering pies from a local bakery at Thanksgiving until my younger son fortuitously married The Crust Whisperer. One of the things I have loved most about my sons’ marriages is being able to incorporate traditions from the daughters-in-law’s families into our own. My younger son’s wife is from the East Coast so she has spent virtually every Thanksgiving with us even when she and my son were dating. She is a first-rate cook and baker and her pies have become an essential part of our holiday. My mother was a wonderful baker, too, but she died long before I had the opportunity to really watch what she did. So I was delighted when my daughter-in-law offered to teach me her family’s treasured pie recipes. I sat in the kitchen and took copious notes as she made the crusts and fillings. She told me which apples to use, and crust tips like making sure the Crisco and the butter were really cold. So the next year, I was deeply honored
when she asked if I could make the apple and pumpkin pies from her recipes since she was busy with an infant. I intended to do her proud. Just as I go nuts if an editor mangles text that is under my by-line, I knew that these pies represented her family. If your name is associated with it, you want — nay, demand — that it live up to your standards. In retrospect, having my older son, Rory, help me was not the best idea. While successful in his career, Rory has always had learning disabilities in math, which could be problematical in cooking. It doesn’t help that he tends to confuse the one cup measure for the two cup measure since they are both, after all, glass containers and end in “cup.” We didn’t have dry measuring cups. Now, I was prepared to argue this as a cup is a cup as far as volume is concerned. Not necessarily in baking, explained the daughter-in-law after the fact. (She has to be the sweetest, most diplomatic person on the planet.) They are indeed the same measurement. It is just easier to get an accurate measure of dry ingredients in a dry measuring cup, which you fill to the top and level off with a straight edge. Even
small differences can change the outcome Thanksgiving morning and surveyed our of a recipe, especially, she noted, pointedly, work, she heroically disguised her dismay. in baking.

Burrata and Prosciutto “Caprese” with wild arugula and Gaeta olives, drizzled with 18-year aged balsamic
Flower Hill Promenade welcomes new Cucina Enoteca By Kelley Carlson eople are welcome to have a seat at Cucina Enoteca — literally and figuratively. At this modern Italian kitchen-meets-rustic farmhouse concept eatery — which recently took over the former Chevy’s location in Flower Hill Promenade — guests will discover a “restaurant to retail” environment. Everything is for sale, from Italian entrees on the menu and bottles of wine stocked near the entrance, to the customized furniture and lighting. Owner Tracy Borkum completely redesigned the space (using repurposed and reclaimed materials) and filled it with her eclectic array of creations and locally procured vintage wares, such as orange-wire bend chairs and relish jar candles. Large windows permit plenty of natural light by day, and at night, the establishment is glowing from candlelit tables and custom-made chandeliers suspended from the high ceilings. Guests can be found chattering over the soft background music while seated around the two large communal tables in the main dining room, or making new acquaintances at the bar. Kids have can fun at the seating area that wraps around the pizza oven, watching chefs toss dough high into the air, then spreading tomato sauce and piling cheese onto their own pies. A side dining room offers a more quiet and intimate experience. A “garden in the sky” awaits above. Patrons travel up the stairs past a “curtain” of model-sized horses to the second-story deck, which is abundant with foliage and offers views of the area. There, they can

With all the different dining options, “you can come in each time and have a different experience,” he noted. Bachelier is part of the culinary team led by Executive Chef Joe Magnanelli, and together they created a menu that incorporates some staples from Cucina Enoteca in Irvine and sister Cucina Urbana locations, but also concocted items specific to the Del Mar site. Many of the ingredients used are from Borkum’s garden at her home in San Diego. Many guests start their meal with antipasti such as Burrata and Prosciutto “Caprese,” featuring creamy cheese and wedges of heirloom tomato accented with

wild arugula and Gaeta olives, drizzled with 18-year aged balsamic, all resting on razorthin slices of prosciutto. Other crowd-pleasing starters include the Panko-Crusted Rabbit Sausage with a celery confit, in which the prunes are cooked down in cognac; and the Grilled Octopus, surrounded by tiny pickled beech mushrooms and charred scallions, acqua pazza (crazy water) aioli, black garlic and coriander vinaigrette. For the main course, there are selections ranging from pizzas and pastas to salads and meat-based dishes. The favorite among the Cucina chefs is the Bucatini, a pile of thick noodles mixed with bits of house-cured guanciale (jowl of a pig), burnt cabbage leaf, tomato, chili and pecorino, topped with a hen egg to be broken and mixed into the noodles. Another desired dish is the Celery Root
Agnolotti with black trumpet mushrooms, Tahitian squash, slices of duck prosciutto and espresso sugo (rich Italian sauce). Among the desserts are Pear and Armagnac Tiramisu with vanilla bean mousse and bittersweet chocolate, and Zeppole (Italian-style doughnut holes) with spiced apple conserva and chili chocolate. Along with such temptations, diners may want to take advantage of the themed daily specials, offered from 3 to 6 p.m. There’s Meatball Monday, Take-Out Tuesday, Wild Wednesday (burger and Moretti beer); Thrifty Thursday (half-price pizza), Formaggi Friday, Social Saturday (when people are asked to find the weekly password on Twitter or Facebook) and Sinful Sunday (no corkage on all bottles from the wine shop over $20). Also, $1 from each purchase of a Cucina signature wine goes toward a different local charity each month.

La Jollan to play Fiona in ‘Shrek The Musical’ By Ashley Mackin La Jolla High School senior Lindsey Young will take on the role of Princess Fiona in the California Youth Conservatory production of “Shrek The Musical,” at the Lyceum Theater downtown. While the show is based on the 2001 animated film, Lindsey said fans of the story will find that theater-going is completely different from movie-going. “Movies try to make (the story) their own and with live theater, it’s a lot more interactive with the audience — so I prefer live theater,” said Lindsey, the daughter of Lori and Tom Young of La Jolla. She also said the live production brings a human element to the characters not found in digital animation. “Our Shrek is a real person with prosthetics,” she explained. “Our Lord Farquaad has to do the whole play on his knees. He has knee guards and a cape to cover the back of his legs and fake legs in front” — a comical visual. Additionally, Lindsey said the music changes how audiences see the characters. “The songs add something to the play,” she said. “They bring out something in the character that you don’t see in the movie.”
If you go ■ What: California Youth Conservatory’s ‘Shrek The Musical’ ■ Where: Lyceum Theater, 79 Horton Plaza, downtown San Diego ■ When: Matinees weekends, nightly shows Nov. 23-Dec. 1 ■ Tickets: From $28 ■ Website: LyceumEvents.org or CYCTheatre.webs.com However, she does have an appreciation for the fact that several films are being adapted into plays, and the other way around. She said when plays — like “Shrek The Musical” — originate as a film, there’s an established fan base and because people already know and love the story, it opens them up to the possibility of seeing the production performed in a new way. She hopes the same thing happens with the film adaptation of “Les Misérables.” Garnering popularity and awards as a musical film adaptation in 2012, Lindsey hopes that people who saw the film and liked it will be more
drawn to a live theater production — especially if she is in it. Lindsey had an ensemble role in the CYC production of “Les Misérables,” but Fiona is her first lead role. “Fiona is just such a loving, crazy person and I connect with her a lot. She’s developing herself because she is experiencing the world and love for the first time. I can connect with that because I, too, am finding out who I am,” Lindsey said. “I am so excited to play her.” She is also excited to play the role because it is kid-friendly. Having been a babysitter for several years, Lindsey said she looks forward to having the children she watched come to watch her perform. In addition to babysitting, Lindsey mentors other child actors through her involvement with the Young Actors Theater, under the direction of Deidre Andrews. Lindsey started as Andrews’s student, but has since become one of her assistants. “Lindsey has mentored many young actors in the past four summers, helping them develop acting skills and a love of theater,” Andrews said. “She coaches them individually and in groups …

assisting them with development of their characters, physical expression, vocal accents and projection. Lindsey herself is a very talented actress with a wonderful sense of comedy and commitment to the roles she plays.” Being a good mentor is important to Lindsey, who, though in the early stages of her acting career, has some advice for aspiring actors. Namely, to not take it personally when they don’t get the parts for which they audition.
“I like to think of it as, ‘it just wasn’t meant to be.’ If I go to an audition and don’t get a call back, I don’t think that I’m a terrible actor, I think maybe this show wasn’t for me. And I go and audition for another show. It’s just how you think about it,” she said. That attitude, Andrews assured, will help Lindsey go far. “I do believe that Lindsey has a future in theater, both as an actress and as a director,” she said. “She has both talent and dedication.”

Jenny Craig holds a book signing and meets with audience members holding her first children’s book, ‘I Believe in Genevieve,’ Oct. 24 at Warwick’s.

You’ve got to believe in yourself
Jenny Craig adds author to her resume with new children’s book By Diane Y. Welch Famed for her global nutrition and weight-loss franchise centers, Jenny Craig has added a new feather to her cap: children’s book author. Craig’s book “I Believe in Genevieve” — just released by Regnery Publishing, Inc. — was launched at a lively Champagne reception and book-signing event at Warwick’s bookstore on Oct. 24. Warwick’s events coordinator, Julie Slavinsky, introduced Craig to a packed audience. Re-living her early days as the youngest of six children born in New Orleans during the Great Depression, Craig told the rapt audience about the inspiration for the book that encourages children to
achieve their own greatness. Genevieve, the main character, is based on Craig, who said she loved to ride horses as a child and who uses her given name for the story. Craig later changed her name to Jenny because she was not enamored with her French roots, she said. Genevieve’s sister is Trudy (Craig’s sister), and Craig’s horsetrainer, John Sadler, is the trainer in the book. The horse in the story, Candy Ride, is Jenny’s (and her late husband Sidney’s) thoroughbred stallion, who was the winner of the 2003 Pacific Classic, breaking a track record at that time. The idea to write a children’s book was suggested by a friend of Craig’s daughter, who works at Regnery Publishing.

‘I Believe in Genevieve’ by Jenny Craig is available at Warwick’s, amazon.com and regnery.com for $16.95. “I hadn’t thought of it before, but when we talked about the idea, I realized that I could get some positive messages across in the book using language that children understand,” Craig said. Before she committed herself to the project, she was shown work samples of the illustrator who would partner with her on the book. “I could not believe the talent of Wendy Edelson, the artist, and the fact that she is self taught,” said Craig. “Her work is absolutely beautiful, and when I saw her illustrations I immediately said, ‘I will absolutely do this!’ ” Edelson’s illustrations bring to life the
message of “believing in yourself,” which is told through Genevieve’s determination to compete in a horse show at the Rancho Paseana riding camp (drawn from Craig’s horse ranch in Rancho Santa Fe). Genevieve takes the necessary steps to be competitive by nourishing herself with healthful foods and keeping active by taking care of Candy Ride, who also grows fit and strong. By the end of the summer, win or lose, Genevieve learns the valuable lesson that by believing in herself she is already a winner. This was a message Craig took to heart her whole life, because she heard it repeatedly as a child. “My dad used to sit me on his knee, and he would often say to me, ‘You can be anything and do anything if you are willing to work for it, and if you have passion for it,’ which means the same as believing in yourself,” Craig said. In this way parents can be very powerful in helping their kids develop a positive selfimage, she added. Then she joked, “I always said, ‘Gee I’m glad my dad didn’t tell me I could fly because I might have jumped off a building to try.’ ” “I Believe in Genevieve” also serves as a fun, smart-living guide for kids with simple, nutritious recipes and exercise plans included in the book’s pages.

Condon’s direction is terrific. Each cast member can really sing, including Erin Davie (Broadway’s “The Mystery of Edwin Drood�) as Violet and Emily Padgett (Broadway’s “Rock of Ages�) as Daisy. The biggest allure of this show is to see how the two actresses carry off the roles of conjoined twins. Thanks to the excellent choreography by Anthony Van Laast every step is in sync, aided by the excellent costumes from Paul Tazewell. “Side Show� is a production that not only entertains, but offers a peek and poke at the past, delicately and delightfully.

Kitchen Shrink Catharine L. Kaufman
Tips for a Fabulous Feast
T
his time of year, both seasoned cooks and neophytes are cocooning themselves in their kitchens to prepare an impressive, bountiful (and hopefully healthy) Thanksgiving feast. It is also that time of year when assorted culinary crises abound, including everything from leaving the giblet bag in the cavity to undercooking a turkey to the point where a competent veterinarian could possibly revive it. Here is some solid gustatory advice to help you seamlessly navigate your way through turkey land. Gobble, gobble. Gender selection Do you want a girl or a boy bird? Tom is the boy, hen is the girl. Large, older males are tastier and more tender than the young, wily boys, while old hens are tough birds. So it’s better to buy an old tom or a young, tender hen (no older than 15 months). If your druthers are breast meat, the young hen is for you, but if you prefer dark meat, then buy the old tom. Dressed to kill The big Thanksgiving dilemma is whether to stuff the bird or do the stovetop method. For the nays, an unstuffed turkey will roast more uniformly and quickly, but if you stuff, it must be completely scooped out from the cavity within an hour after the turkey is removed from the oven, to prevent an environment rife for the formation of bacteria and food-borne illnesses. For a no-fuss stuffing technique simply pack the dressing in a cheesecloth bag and insert in the bird. This cavity protection not only prevents sticking to the insides, but makes for easy removal when the turkey’s done. Rack it up For easy cleanup, swap out the roasting rack for an edible makeshift one. Line your roasting pan with layers of carrots, celery and parsnips that will also infuse the bird with divine flavors, and create an aromatic blend of juices for gravy. Let’s talk turkey Fresh is always best, but if you go the
other route, never put a frozen turkey in the oven unless you are cooking it for Christmas dinner. The best way to thaw the bird is in the refrigerator, breast side up in a shallow pan, in its original wrapper allowing 24 hours for every four pounds. Massage the skin with virgin olive oil and season with sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. Or do a dry rub instead of liquid brine by seasoning with 1/3 cup of kosher salt and an herb blend, and letting it marinate overnight for a tender, juicy bird. It’s about time While cooking times will vary depending on whether you purchased a fresh or frozen bird, generally for a frozen defrosted one, allow 20 minutes per pound, while a fresh 10 to 15 minutes per pound at a moderate 350 degree F oven. In addition, a stuffed turkey will need extra roasting time, around 25 to 30 minutes per pound. Tent the bird with aluminum foil or parchment paper to prevent overbrowning. Only open the oven about 30 to 45 minutes before ETA, and remove the foil or parchment paper to allow it to brown nicely. A meat thermometer is a great gadget to check for doneness. Stick the thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh without touching the bone. When the temperature reaches 180 degrees F, the bird is done. Also test the stuffing temperature, which must reach 165 degrees F for doneness. If you don’t have a thermometer, use the old school method of joint jiggling and juice testing. Pierce the thigh with a knife, and if the juices run clear, then it’s done. Also, the joints should wiggle freely. Let the turkey take a nap for 20 minutes after removing it from the oven so the juices settle in, for easier carving. I’ll drink to that With 15 minutes to go on the clock, brush the bird generously with white vermouth to give a golden glaze thanks to the sugars in this fortified wine. — For additional holiday recipes, including Chanukah latkes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

From Swimmer, B1 A year ago (La Jolla Light, Sept. 13, 2012), she was prepared for the plunge and the swim, but bad weather made it impossible and she had to return home to Del Mar. “It was daunting knowing I had to come home and train for another year,” she said. The extra year worked in her favor. She continued her vigorous training; swimming up to 40 miles a week, including one 8-hour, 18-mile swim from Cardiff to Pacific Beach. She also increased her long swims in colder water, off the central California coast and in Lake Tahoe. The English Channel water temperature averages 60 degrees and swimmers are not allowed to wear wetsuits — only swimsuits, caps, goggles and grease. A tall and slim 5 feet, 10 inches, DeFrancesco also had to eat more to keep extra weight on and make sure she got enough sleep and rest. “My health also got a lot better,” she said. In 2010, DeFrancesco received a bone marrow transplant to combat Hodgkin’s lymphoma. A year later, when her favorite NYU swim coach Lauren Beam died of colon cancer at age 32, DeFrancesco decided to swim the English Channel in her honor, and to raise

A cancer survivor, Allison (Alli) DeFrancesco swims the English Channel Aug. 28 in honor of her NYU swim coach who died of colon cancer and to raise funds for First Descents, which supports young adults with cancer. Courtesy money for First Descents, a nonprofit organization that supports young adults with cancer. Her recent swim helped raise money for the organization, but DeFrancesco would like to raise more. Despite all her training, DeFrancesco still had a major challenge ahead. The English Channel is only open to distance swimmers from June until September and is
one of the busiest shipping lanes in the world. In addition to the cold water and ships, swimmers often must get though debris, diesel fuel, jellyfish, kelp, high winds and waves and strong currents. “My biggest fear was jumping into the water and not knowing how my body would react,” said DeFrancesco. “Swimming with the sun on your back and dolphins

jumping over you is not the same as plunging into the cold water in the dark.” Her swim on Aug. 28 was scheduled for 3 a.m. to take advantage of a slack tide, mid-way between high and low. Her other fear was learning to swim so close to a boat. Fortunately, her training paid off and she attributes much of her success to the
British support team — the captain of the boat and three crew members (two women and a man) — as well as her American trainer Brian Finn. They fed and encouraged her the whole way. “Your body never gets completely replenished and you have to make sure to prevent hypothermia.” Even with a support team, however, “at the end of the day, there is no one in the water but yourself,” she added. Back here in San Diego, DeFrancesco works as an assistant registrar for the Museum of Contemporary Art. (She majored in art history at NYU.) Recently, she was named Woman of the Year by the San Diegobased Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. On her horizon, she sees graduate studies and possibly more swims, for example, from Molokai to Oahu (26 miles), or across the Strait of Gibraltar (approximately 10-15 miles between Spain and Morocco).

A visitor gets up close and personal with Frida.
How it all began
500 pieces of her clothing, jewelry and furniture, plus dozens of photographs documenting the 47 years of her painpassion-politics-and-painting-filled life. Curated by the owners of The Kunstmuseum Gehrke-Remund in BadenBaden, Germany, and presented by Global Entertainment Properties in Los Angeles, the exhibit promises Frida-fans a totalimmersion experience, and offers a twostory display of full-scale, licensed reproductions, hand-painted by a quartet of unidentified Chinese artists commissioned by a multi-national couple who are Fridafans themselves.
Hans-Jürgen Gehrke and Mariella C. Remund founded their Kunstmuseum in the town where Kahlo’s German-born father was raised, as a tribute to the Mexican painter whose work they loved. Gehrke’s field is business organization and marketing. Dr. Remund, the museum’s chief curator, has lived and worked in China since 2003, has a background in “strategic management, branding and neuro-marketing,” and became experienced in “materials science” during her years as a high-level executive for Dow Chemical in Germany. Both enamored with Mexican culture, they amassed an extensive collection of
photos of Frida’s work, and visited the Blue House, where she was born, lived and died, many times. In 2008, they managed to get a license from the Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo Museums Trust to make replicas of Frida’s paintings, which enabled them to create their Kahlo-centered Kunstmuseum. (See “About Replicas” on next page) “Baden-Baden is too small for Frida,” said Gehrke, as he walked through the exhibit. “We want to share her with a bigger community now.” Last year, he and Remund began a “strategic partnership” with Global Entertainment Properties, a company that has produced touring exhibitions of “Star
so a de al We d tr n ya bu
Photos by Maurice Hewitt
Trek” and “Titanic.” They commissioned a new set of replicas, put their own set in storage, shut down their museum, and shipped their collection of Frida artifacts to San Diego for The Complete Frida’s North American premiere. “Most museum exhibits are very leftbrain,” Gehrke said. “We want our exhibit to touch your right brain, your emotions, your heart. We want you to see the whole story of Frida, her cultural environment, the people in her life, the furniture she’d have had.”
Controversy Some members of San Diego’s art community have protested that ads for

My Frida Kahlo ‘Experience’
An attentive visitor at the exhibit “The Complete Frida” fail to emphasize that Kahlo’s actual paintings are not on display. Alessandra Moctezuma, gallery director and Professor of Fine Art at Mesa College, had this to say: “What would Frida, who was a communist, think of corporate interests commercializing her work, Chinese craftsmen paid who knows how little to replicate her paintings? “Can you imagine a complete Dali or a complete Picasso exhibit that was all of replicas made by Chinese craftsmen? “As someone who teaches Museum Studies and about standards and the importance of authenticating a work and knowing its provenance, I just can’t promote this presentation of fakes.”
My husband and I saw the exhibit on Nov. 2, the Mexican Day of the Dead, an appropriate time for a Frida Kahlo experience. I admired the look of the show, and the range of it, the re-creation of Frida’s rooms, the haunting music of “La Llorona.” I saw pictures I’d never seen before, including a striking one of Frida’s imagined birth, which happens to be owned by pop star Madonna. I learned that from the catalog, whose informative anecdotes I enjoyed. But I felt something missing in the paintings. You can replicate an artist’s colors and technique, but not her soul. Other visitors to the exhibit, locals and tourists, didn’t seem to mind. “I’m so excited to see this, and it’s all so beautifully laid out,” said Alita Hetland, of Mission Valley. Her friend, Janet Millian, who came down from Costa Mesa for “Frida,” echoed the enthusiasm. “You can really feel her presence here,” she said. Another enthusiastic visitor was Leonor Webb, originally from Mexico. “I studied visual arts at UCSD, and I’ve always been interested in Frida’s work,” she said. “I even have two dogs named Frida and Diego! And it’s nice to get to see all these things in one place.” The Oxford Dictionary defines art as “the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.” Is “The Complete Frida” an authentically artful experience? See it and judge for yourself.

About Replicas ■A replica is the repetition of the original work either made by the artist or, after the artist’s death, authorized by the holders of the artists’ rights. ■A replica must represent 100 percent of the original. Replicas have a legal connotation (it is authorized) and a quality connotation (it is a faithful repetition of the original). ■ F rida Kahlo painted her life; her paintings are like an autobiography on canvas. To understand her life, it is essential to be able to see all of her paintings. However, some of her originals are not allowed to leave Mexico, and some are privately owned, scattered around the world, and never loaned for exhibitions.
A lifesize replica of Frida’s famous bed with the papier-maché skeleton — a reminder of mortality — on top.
■ ‘The Complete Frida Kahlo’ exhibition shows all of her paintings for which there is documentation in color. It allows visitors to follow her entire life, from the very beginning as a hobby-painter to her last works before she died. This is only possible with replicas. ■ F our Chinese artists with outstanding technical and creative skills replicated Frida Kahlo’s work in 2008-2009. The curators would have loved to have the replicas made in Mexico, but they worked and lived in Beijing, so they selected artists there. — Excerpted from thecompletefrida.com

FOOTBALL: Clairemont High School Chieftains 28, La Jolla Country Day Torreys 14
La Jolla Country Day falls to bigger Clairemont, 28-14 By Ed Piper La Jolla Country Day’s football team, though out-sized and outbattled on the line in visiting Clairemont’s 28-14 first round CIF Division 4 playoff win Nov. 15, suffered a blow, good for building young men and the whole person. The Torreys sport a small roster including six freshmen, Eagle Scouts, the ASB president (lineman Brandon Wachs), and outstanding scholars in the classroom. Not every program takes the route of integrity, ethics and developing scholar-athletes in these days of ninth-grade commits to college teams, parents holding their sons back a year for the purpose of gaining more physical growth and maturity to do better in sports, and families relocating purely on the basis of which public school coach will play little Johnny more this season. So it’s refreshing to see the “school” in high school athletics actually represented, though disappointment was visible all over the faces of Torrey players in the locker room after the season-ending loss. Country Day tied the game 7-7 in the first quarter on a 15-yard ramble by freshman quarterback
La Jolla Country Day quarterback Braxton Burmeister drags Clairemont defender Julian Ruiz (6) into the end zone as he scores the first of his two touchdowns on a 15-yard run to tie the game 7-7 in the first quarter Nov. 15. Burmeister carried 12 times for 89 yards and was 15 for 27 passing for 140 yards for 229 total yards. Ed Piper Braxton Burmeister with 4:26 left on the clock. The drive started on the Torreys’ own 30 after Darien Brown’s 20-yard kick return. It was punctuated by a 37-yard pass play to running back Cole Goldklang and another of 17 yards to Christian Hayes, another junior. Hayes grabbed six catches for 64 yards in the game, Goldklang with three catches for 52 yards on the night. Down only 14-7 at the half, LJCD came back to tie the game on its first possession of the third
quarter on a 14-yard quarterback keeper up the middle by Burmeister. During that drive from the 29, Goldklang had a reception of 15 yards and Hayes took another one five yards to the Chieftain 14 before Burmeister’s score. But the Torreys quickly surrendered a Chieftain touchdown on Clairemont’s grinding ground game aided by a pass interference call by theend of the third quarter. Clairemont racked up 291 yards on the ground on 63 carries in
total, to LJCD’s 109 yards. Burmeister displayed his athletic prowess, besides running for both La Jolla touchdowns, by rushing for 89 yards and adding another 140 yards on 15-of-27 passing for an excellent 229 total yards on offense. Senior linebacker Vincent Paolucci played his heart out in his last game in high school with 10 tackles and six assists. Freshman defensive back Brennan Goring wasn’t too shabby, either, with nine tackles and three assists. Linebacker Cody Galvan had six tackles, five assists. Wachs, a senior said: “If you give it 100 percent, you can walk off the field with your head held high. I am so proud of our team.” An impassioned Paolucci added, “We knew it was going to be a grind and whoever had the good day was going to take it. We just didn’t turn out on top.” Joseph Brown, another senior lineman, said: “This team worked hard. We faced adversity. But we overcame that. We worked together. We became brothers. We bonded with one another. Through all that, we worked. We just worked every game.” Commented Izaiah Poutoa, sophomore lineman: “We’ve got a lot of heart and determination. We may
not be bigger. It’s a mental game.” Said LJCD coach Jeff Hutzler: “We’ve got some great seniors… Leaders in the school. We had a lot of guys with us who played four years, what we call ‘Black Stripes.’” “One of our coaches said it in the locker room after the game, ‘They do things the right way.’” Country Day finishes 5-6 overall, 1-3 in the Coastal South Conference. Clairemont goes to 5-6 overall, 1-2 in the Central League, and plays at Sweetwater Fri., Nov. 22, in the second round of the CIF Division 4 playoffs. n GAME STATS – Offense: Passing – Cole Burmeister 15-27, 140 yards.

Ann Romney to speak at benefit for medical research Ann Romney will be the keynote speaker at the “Visions of Success – From Research to Reality,” High Tea, 2-4 p.m. Monday, Dec. 9 at the Grand Del Mar. The benefit, underwritten by Title Sponsor Douglas Manchester, will raise funds to bolster research for The Vision of Children Foundation’s vision research, as well as the American Cancer Society’s breast cancer research in San Diego County. Honorary Chairs are cancer survivors Susie Spanos and Bill Griffith of 10 News, along with Co-Chairs Vivian Hardage and Wanda Garner. Kimberly Hunt and Griffith will serve as event emcees. Romney, a breast cancer survivor and health advocate, will address the critical need for medical research to cure breast cancer and vision disorders in children. Recent cancer research has resulted in a 93 percent survival rate for early detection of
Ann Romney
breast cancer; however, the survival rate for patients with certain rare and aggressive breast cancers is less than 50 percent over five years. Breast cancer strikes one out of every eight women in San Diego and has personally impacted the Hardage family. Vivian has battled breast cancer three times, including a rare and aggressive form, and is currently in remission. Vivian and her husband, Sam Hardage, founded The Vision of Children Foundation in 1991, to fund research to discover a cure for childhood blindness and vision disorders. Wanda Garner, cancer workshop facilitator and fundraiser, and her husband, biotech leader, Cam Garner, are also supporters of medical research efforts in San Diego. The “Visions of Success – From Research to Reality” event will begin at 1 p.m. with a private VIP reception with Romney for
event sponsors only, followed by her keynote speech, High Tea, fashion show and live auction. Tickets are $250 preferred seating and $125 per ticket for standard seating. To buy tickets or become a sponsor, call Andria Kinnear at (858) 314-7917 or e-mail atakinnear@visionofchildren.org or go to visionofchildren.org Note: Event attendees and non-attendees can enter a raffle to win a new 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, donated by Midway Jeep Chrysler Dodge and Ram. The prize includes use of a vacation home in Big Bear for one week and a carload of toys. The cost is $100 per ticket and only 3,000 tickets will be sold by phone at (858) 314-7927 until Dec. 5, and in person until Dec. 9 at the High Tea. The winner will be announced at the event and need not to be present to win.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, this information can be obtained from one of the following three companies: LPS Agency Sales & Posting at (714) 7302727, or visit the Internet Web site www.lpsasap.com (Registration required to search for sale information) or Priority Posting & Publishing at (714) 573-1965 or visit the Internet Web site www.priorityposting. com (Click on the link for “Advanced Search” to search for sale information), or auction.com at 1-800-280-2832 or visit the Internet Web site www.auction.com, using the Trustee Sale No. shown above. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. P1071419 11/21, 11/28, 12/05/2013. LJ1551

Students make Veterans Day pilgrimage to Mt. Soledad
M
ore than 200 All Hallows Academy students and staff walked to the Mount Soledad Cross on Veterans Day, Nov. 11. While at the memorial, students learned about the more than 3,000 plaques honoring veterans, living and deceased, from the Revolutionary War to the current conflicts in the Middle East. “There is no better way to honor the veterans who served our country than to take a mini-pilgrimage as a whole school to the Mount Soledad Veterans Memorial,” said Principal Jill Platt. “We want our students to honor the sacrifices made by so many to preserve the freedoms we enjoy as Americans.” All Hallows is a Catholic parish serving families in the greater La Jolla area since 1964. — Maryann Castronovo

One Night Only
Arcangelo Corelli music live at the Athenaeum By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt On Nov. 24, a modern-day violin virtuoso and her gifted keyboard accompanist will pay tribute to a legendary 18th century violinist/composer with a special concert at the Athenaeum. Victoria Martino and James Lent will mark the 300th anniversary of Arcangelo Corelli’s death with another of their musical marathons, featuring all 12 of Corelli’s sonatas for violin and organ continuo, performed on authentic Baroque violin and pipe organ. Arcangelo Corelli (1653-1713) was the most popular Italian composer of the Baroque era, a major influence on Vivaldi, Bach and Handel whose sonatas and concertos were famous throughout Europe. His skill as a composer was matched by his skill as a performer. He toured widely, establishing the violin as a solo instrument, and has been called the “World’s First Great Violinist.” Well-rewarded for his work in his lifetime, he is buried in the Pantheon at Rome. For the past seven years, Martino and Lent have been
‘Victoria Martino and James Lent, before their 2012 Beethoven Marathon at the Athenaeum. This Sunday, they will perform the complete sonatas of Arcangelo Corelli. Lonnie Burstein Hewitt performing commemorative anniversary marathons of the complete violin works of some of their favorite composers, starting with Mozart in 2006 (26 sonatas in eight hours on his 250th birthday), and including Bach, Handel and Beethoven. Their Corelli concert will be only a quarter as long as their Mozart marathon, but it’s even
more challenging. “The music is so demanding,” Martino said. “Corelli wrote these pieces for himself to perform, and included every technical trick in the book, most of which he invented. Preparing for the concert is like going through an anthology of everything anyone could do on the violin in 1700.” Corelli, like other composers of
his time, did not actually provide complete scores for his compositions. “Performers were expected to co-create the music, embellishing what was written down with their own ornamentation, like jazz musicians,” Martino said. “I have to train hard for the concert, to have the physical, intellectual and creative stamina to do it, first to learn all the pieces, and then to be in top form for over two hours. It’s pretty scary, and it’s a one-time only event.” Martino, who was raised in La Jolla, has had a long and varied career on three continents. She calls Lent, who has a Ph.D. in music performance from Yale, one of the most sought-after collaborative keyboardists in Southern California, and the two will be performing on authentic Baroque instruments. “This will be an amazing opportunity for audiences to hear Corelli’s works performed on an 18th century violin that has never been modified and an organ with all wooden pipes,” Martino said. “There’s no way to duplicate that special sound!
