Environmental impact report on Hillel project poses few concerns By Pat Sherman A long-awaited report on the proposed UC San Diego Hillel Center for Jewish Life by the City of San Diego Development Services Department found the project would only result in “significant environmental impacts” to the site’s biological and paleontological resources. La Jolla Shores resident and Hillel attorney Bob Lapidus, as well as an associate city planner who worked on the report, maintained that there are no impacts that can’t be mitigated to a level of insignificance. The report found that the Cooper’s hawk could potentially be found on or adjacent to the site, which would require mitigation to avoid impacts to the species during construction. Measures have been applied to ensure the recovery of paleontological resources (primarily fossils) that may be uncovered during grading. The project involves construction of a Jewish student center on vacant land adjacent UCSD, on the south side of La Jolla Village Drive. Hillel representatives were scheduled to present the project at the Nov. 20 meeting of the La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance Advisory Board. The La Jolla Light will include coverage of the meeting online and in its next edition. At its June meeting, the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) denied approval of the project, despite significant changes since the project was first approved SEE HILLEL, A14

By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) elected a new crop of officers at its Nov. 14 meeting. Board members Phil Coller and Nancy Warwick will retain their positions as board president and vice president, respectively. Tom Brady continues as treasurer and newly elected board member Krista Baroudi takes the reins as secretary. Lorna York, Mark Krasner, Mike Soleri and Trenton Bonner also joined the board last month. After considerable discussion, President Phil Coller announced LJVMA’s community advisory group appointments: Deborah Marengo, Anna Palmer and Matt Clifford (La Jolla Planned District Ordinance Committee); Tom Brady and Joe Matibag (Traffic and Transportation Board); and Deborah Marengo, Sheila Fortune and Tom Brady (Coastal Access and Parking Board). “I’d like to thank all those people who do that extra work,” Coller said. “There are some big issues on all three of those advisory boards.” SEE MERCHANTS, A10

La Jolla Community Foundation installs another public art piece By Ashley Mackin he latest public art work in the Murals of La Jolla art series was installed on Nov. 13 at 7744 Fay Ave. Titled “Applied,” by artist Richard Allen Morris, it is the eighth in the series being funded by the La Jolla Community Foundation. The goal is to have 16 murals in place by the middle of next year, with two more to be installed this year. Those will go up near George’s at The Cove and on La Jolla Boulevard, according to Lynda Forsha of the Foundation’s Art Advisory Services. Of the project, Foundation member Matthew Browar has said, “We want to enhance La Jolla, and one of the ways to enhance La Jolla is through art.” In a letter to La Jolla Light, Brower explained the murals are attached to the building using a steel frame that floats approximately four inches above the surface of the building. The material attached to the frame is called Miroflex, a type of cloth on which images can be directly printed. “Applied” came with its own challenges, as the canvas had layers of paint and impasto, a spackle-like material, making the

actual piece project several inches high. However, Forsha said, “We were excited about the translation of the image to the mural and felt very confident about the technology (available) and being able to accomplish what we were hoping to do.” The Foundation uses a seven-member Art Advisory Committee to decide which artists to work with.

On the Web ■m uralsoflajolla.com FROM MURAL, A1 The process involves identifying sites and matching them with a precollected list of artists. Forsha said from there, the artists’ proposal are matched to the best possible site. In Morris’s case, the wall space, which is smaller than other sites, lends itself to “Applied,� because the original is approximately 8 by 11 inches. An additional priority was getting the reproduced color correct, as the piece’s signature is its vibrancy. As “Applied� was unveiled, its colorfulness generated immediate comments from passersby. Morris has been showing work in La Jolla since 1960, with many of pieces having the layered dimensions found in “Applied,� and measuring several inches high off the canvas. He was born in Long Beach in 1933, and his work was most recently on display at the R.B. Stevenson Gallery for the “Patch and Paint� exhibit.

Shores Association adds projects to unfunded list, OKs new committee La Jolla
Shores
Association
By Ashley Mackin At its monthly meeting Nov. 14, the La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) board discussed unfunded projects, a new committee to set rules for commercial vendors at the beach, and the end of four members’ terms. It also received a report from Lifeguard John Sandmeyer regarding improved signage in the beach areas. n Beach Rules: Sandmeyer said signage
at the north end of Kellogg Park has been addressed and new signs will more accurately display laws such as dog leash rules and the line that separates surf and swim areas. The Lifeguard Station will also be adhering to the colored flag system used by kayak businesses and vendors. A green flag will signify water conditions are good enough for all tours, guided or not, to be out in the ocean. A yellow flag will indicate guided
tours only. A red flag means no one is allowed on a kayak for safety reasons. n Unfunded Needs List: Mark Moncey, area manager for park and recreation, took suggestions for annual the Unfunded Needs List. The list includes projects with insufficient funding to be passed on to the City of San Diego.

Torrey Pines Rotarian completes cross-country bike ride By Ashley Mackin When you hear of someone biking across the country, you might think of leather-clad motorcyclists. In Bill Irwin’s case, think spandex-clad retirees. Irwin, 70, and some friends have made four trips across the country on their bicycles, having returned from their fourth and final trip on Oct. 30. In their first trip in 2002, Irwin and eight friends rode across the top of the country. In 2007, a smaller group went along the West Coast. In 2010, they rode across the “bottom.” “We thought we would complete the box,” Irwin said of this recent trip biking down the East Coast. He joked, “All of this was so we could say to somebody, ‘Yea, we rode our bikes around the country.’ ‘Oh, where did you ride?’ ‘No, we rode our bikes around the country.’” On this trip, Irwin and friend Ed Ott pedaled about 1,594 miles over 38 days. Surprisingly, Irwin said he never got tired. “I ride all the time (and)

Sitting in a truck for five or six days is harder for me than the bike saddle.” The truck he sat in was the one they drove from San Diego to Calais, Maine with bikes and other equipment, and from Florida back to San Diego. Other challenges Irwin faced had to do with county-maintained roads. “Roads are controlled by the counties – when you enter so-and-so county, the road changes from one kind

Every once in a while, we’d be going along and it would be butter smooth shoulders, then all of a sudden it would turn into rocks and rough paving,” he said. Other difficulties included all the bodies of water they had to go around and the big cities – such as New York and Boston – through which they could not bike. Irwin said this ride will be his last, due in part to the urging of his wife of 15 years,

Carol, but he will always be looking for “that next carrot.” A longtime member of the Torrey Pines Rotary, Irwin used this trip to raise money for the charities the Rotary supports. The Rotary offered the chance to donate a certain amount per mile or a lump donation. Donations are still being accepted. Through donations, Irwin raised $6,500. However, since money is still coming in, this year’s beneficiaries have not been decided. In
2010, the proceeds from Irwin’s ride went to Rotary International Foundation for a clean water project in Uganda, toys for patients at Rady Children’s Hospital, and a Rotary project to provide protective vests for Afghani female police officers, among others. Irwin paid for all expenses, such as food, gas and hotel rooms, so all donations go to charity. Though a resident of Point Loma, Irwin has been a member of the Torrey
Pines Rotary for 43 years. Don Yeckel, Torrey Pines Rotary Foundation President, applauded Bill’s effort. “It’s awesome. Think of it — a mature man, with a job, with a family, without financial sponsorship and with little publicity, circumnavigating the rim of the country by bicycle to raise money to help others. How many people would do that? Not many. Not me. But Bill did. My hat (is) off to him.”

Biologist Martin Tresguerres describes the problem of ocean acidification and the various ways that a decreased pH could threaten marine systems. Claire Discenza By Claire Discenza When you think about carbon emissions in the context of the world’s oceans, your mind likely jumps to the commonlydiscussed issues of climate, rising water levels, and intensified storms. Yet changes in the atmospheric carbon levels are affecting marine systems in many other less-publicized ways. Since joining Scripps Institution of Oceanography in 2010, marine biologist Martin Tresguerres has been studying one of these “other” consequences of increased global carbon: ocean acidification. In a research discussion titled “Ocean Acidification: Can Corals Cope?” Tresguerres presented his laboratory’s work as the November installment of the Jeffrey B. Graham Perspectives on Ocean Science lecture series hosted by the Birch Aquarium. “Now that CO2 has been constantly increasing, what we have is a net increase in the rate of CO2 influx into the oceans,” Tresguerres said. While atmospheric CO2 is a gas, once dissolved into the oceans, CO2 combines with water to form bicarbonate ions and hydrogen ions. These hydrogen ions are an acid, and as such have the potential to cause detrimental problems. Because the main component of shells is
calcium carbonate, a compound easily dissolved in acid, these ions could pose a real threat. “There is the concern that either the shells might dissolve, or at least they might have more trouble,” said Tresguerres. “[The organisms] might have to expend more energy to secrete the shell.” A second threat results from the fact that these hydrogen ions are highly reactive. “When you change the concentration of hydrogen ions, proteins change shape,” Tresguerres said. Because their function is linked to physical shape, altering proteins in such a way impairs everything from normal reproductive activity to blood circulation. “It can lead to pretty much anything you can imagine depending on the magnitude of the pH stress. “Given the effects of pH stress, it is not surprising that all living organisms have the ability to regulate the pH,”continued Tresguerres. “We are constantly producing CO2 in our cells. Every cell on the planet must have the ability to do that, if not, they die.” At Scripps, Tresguerres studies how various marine organisms sense acidification, and how they adapt the added stresses caused by this lowering of pH. “One of the things we’re doing in my lab is not only
looking at potential effect of ocean acidification, but first we need to know how the animal works. We know much less about invertebrates such as corals,” said Tresguerres. “We want to study how corals work in the first place, and then see how changes in the ocean acidification may affect those organisms.” Tresguerres recently received a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant to study the unknowns in coral physiology. His lab is using fieldwork as well as cell cultures to study the currently-unknown function of individual cell types. But he is not embarking on this project alone. Tresguerres’ lab has been developing worldwide collaborations in order to pool knowledge and resources towards understanding pH stress. “By getting all of these different experts, it means we do not have to develop every single thing,” Tresguerres said. “The original question is: Can corals cope? We don’t have an answer yet, but most likely corals are not happy. “The key thing here is how each of these things affect coral physiology, and what happens when you combine them. And after we know that, after we know the mechanisms, then we can get the information to try to establish policies to prevent them.”
Therapy Options For Arthritis Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease that often leads to debilitating inflammation of joints and surrounding tissues. For many of those affected, the simple tasks of daily living can be difficult. However, a recent study review published by the Cochrane Collaboration showed that people with RA were better able to cook, clean and complete other household chores after receiving physical & occupational therapy. Those with RA can find out how to decrease stress on their joints, manage pain, make home modifications, as well as learn strategies that conserve energy. Physical therapy can also help to address pain and inflammation caused by RA, along with the associated de-conditioning that affects strength, balance, flexibility and mobility.At Ability Rehab, we have extensive experience treating all types of arthritis successfully. Our therapists will create a comprehensive treatment plan to help decrease joint pain & stiffness, enhance flexibility/mobility and increase muscle strength.

Mayor Sanders’ go-to gal ready for some leisure time By Pat Sherman s Julie Dubick ends her days as Mayor Jerry Sanders’ chief of staff, the La Jolla resident is looking forward to some welldeserved downtime in the seaside community she’s called home for nearly two decades. “It’s a job for someone who likes to be busy,” said Dubick of her role in the mayor’s office. “Monday and Tuesday are city council

days and Wednesday is committee day, so it’s only Thursday and Friday that you are really left to get all of your work done. “It’s a lot of face time — and that’s what people from the community expect when they come here,” she said. “It’s making sure you touch the community or help the mayor do that.” Dubick’s annual salary was $150,000 minus a 6 percent

Though Dubick often joined the mayor at community meetings and events, more often she could be found in her office on the 11th-floor of city hall,
mulling over strategies and making sure the mayor’s policies were implemented. “It is a balancing and bringing together of sometimes adverse, and certainly diverse, interests. That can be harrowing because there are a lot of agendas. The idea is to arrive at some consensus.” Dubick said moving the $45 million Plaza de Panama project in Balboa Park along

www.lajollalight.com FROM DUBICK, A8 thing went through without too much abuse being heaped upon Irwin Jacobs,” she said. “In the end it was achieved, but it was a long and harrowing process — and we’re still in litigation over it.” In her final month, Dubick continues to work on the planned expansion of the San Diego Convention Center — another controversial project steeped in litigation. (Some climate change experts predict the center could be inundated with seawater by mid-century.) Still, Dubick maintains that the convention center is a crucial economic generator for the city, providing money for public safety, neighborhood services and library hours. Mayor weighs in Speaking with the La Jolla Light, Mayor Sanders cited Dubick’s commitment to solidifying the Convention Center project before he leaves office. Leading a city with the nation’s eighth largest population, Sanders said he has relied on Dubick’s advice daily. “She works with me on issues every single day and makes sure that I understand them,” said
LA JOLLA LIGHT - november 22, 2012 - Page A9
Sanders, whose working relationship with Dubick spans two decades, including service on several nonprofit boards, including the National Conference of Christians and Jews. “She always leaves the decision making up to me, but she’s always got an idea of where it should go, which thankfully I’m smart enough to take. She just is really smart politically, but also smart operationally, which is a pretty hard blend to find. She is really the glue in this office.” Dubick has had to soothe situations where San Diego’s straight-talking mayor and former police chief let his salty tongue fly, as happened with former mayoral opponent Steve Francis in 2008 and again when commenting on Carl DeMaio’s tactics this year. “He has been known to express his opinion quite graphically,” she said. “Luckily, he doesn’t do it that often.” Voices from the homefront Has it been hard for the La Jolla resident to hold her own tongue when her community’s issues land on the mayor’s desk? “I always want to advocate
It’s really important to remember “ that you represent everybody — even the views you don’t agree with. ”
— Julie Dubick
Chief of staff to San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders for where I live and I feel like everybody should do that, but again, our duty really is citywide,” she said. “I get calls from my fellow La Jollans when they go through a huge pothole and send those right down to Streets (Division) and urge that they get fixed ASAP. My own husband is bothering me about the Cove stench. “If you know someone, you’re going to call them, and my neighbors are active, social people, so they call and say, ‘I see street sweeping going on in front of the Beach and Tennis Club and it doesn’t need to happen. Why are you wasting that money?’ I try to explain it’s an experimental program in which we’re testing runoff. They don’t really care. They care about the answer.” Dubick said parking and the condition of streets and business storefronts are key
issues that need to be addressed in La Jolla. “Beautification is always an issue for La Jollans,” she said, noting that the community’s ongoing secession effort has not been well received at C Street. “They want their jewel to look right and be maintained right. I know that there have been complaints that the city hasn’t spent enough money doing that. In many ways that’s true, because the city’s been strapped for a period of time and it’s now going to come back to restoring more services.” Tips for Filner’s ‘go-to’ Asked what advice she would give Mayor Bob Filner’s chief of staff, Dubick quipped, “So, run is the wrong answer?” She said Filner’s righthand man or woman should prepare for a wild ride and learn to “bite their tongue.”
“They’re going to have to listen to the community very carefully,” she said. “You’re going to have to make a complete pivot from being partisan to serving the whole community, listening to the whole community and not saying, ‘Well this guy contributed to my campaign, so I’m going to do this,’ versus represent everybody’s interests. “It’s really important to remember that you represent everybody — even the views you don’t agree with.” Efforts rewarded Last month, Dubick and husband, Mitch, were chosen as the Anti-Defamation League’s 2012 Torch of Liberty Award recipients, which is given to individuals with a commitment to promoting respect, counteracting hatred and bigotry, and supporting fair treatment for all. Sanders praised Dubick for being able to balance diplomacy and tenacity. “She’s one of those people that, when she needs to be, can be the toughest person in the world at negotiating,” he said. “Then one minute later she can be talking with an employee and trying to
help them work out issues, and just very kind and compassionate.” Coming home to La Jolla After leaving her position with the city, Dubick intends to rest, rejuvenate and reacquaint herself with La Jolla’s vast dining options and cultural institutions, eventually availing herself of La Jolla’s many volunteer and community service opportunities. “I’m not doing as well as the mayor, who is taking three months and going to Italy,” she said. “He’s doing it the right way.” Though Dubick is still a member of the State Bar, she said she doesn’t see herself practicing law again fulltime. “I practiced law for 20 years and earned a good living to put my kids through college and now it’s time to give back to the community,” she said. “As with some of the boards I sit on, I’m always happy to provide that kind of expertise and am still qualified to do it.” Until then, Dubick intends to enjoy a low-profile life. “I’ll see you in La Jolla in my scruffies, with my hair pulled back enjoying myself.”

FROM MERCHANTS, A1 In other Village Merchants Association action: n Financial Statements: Treasurer Tom Brady said audited financial statements for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2012 will be distributed at LJVMA’s next meeting. Executive Director Sheila Fortune said the organization recently passed audits by both the city and an independent accountant. The LJVMA has roughly $99,000 in business improvement district (BID) funds left from the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 (after subtracting outstanding bills from the previous BID-funded organization, Promote La Jolla, and $46,000 in seed money granted to launch
LJVMA). The city requests that all funds carried over from a previous fiscal year be budged for and spent in the current year. n Coastal Access Funds: The newly revived Coastal Access and Parking Board has about $460,000, which Coller said must be spent in a “very specific way,” mainly involving off-site parking and shuttle services. “We have to figure out how to spend that money in a practical way,” he said. About $60,000 of that is allocated for a program that provides discounted parking to about 120 people employed at businesses throughout the Village. n Information Center:
The La Jolla Village Merchants Association board of directors attend a mandatory training on the Brown Act, the state’s open meeting law. Pat Sherman Construction began Nov. 15 on the future home of the La Jolla Village Information Center at 1162 Prospect St. The new space will combine the LJVMA offices with the existing Visitor Center on Herschel Avenue.

n Cove Odors: Coller noted concerns that the stench emanating from La Jolla Cove could progress from a public nuisance to a public health issue. He asked that someone from LJVMA step up as the group’s representative to champion a solution, coordinating with legislators and government agencies with a stake in the issue. n Visitor Map: Advertising sales for a map of the Village to be handed out at the new Information Center and at key sites throughout the county have closed. The group was scheduled to meet with the designer this week.
n Belvedere Project: William Berwin of Coastal Development Company and LJVMA board member and attorney Mark Krasner will donate their expertise to shepherd the Belvedere Promenade project at Prospect Street and Girard Avenue from concept to planning stages. Coller said their assistance would be “very critical” to help the project progress. On Nov. 15, LJVMA representatives met with 10 property owners adjacent to the proposed project, which replaces a one-way section of Prospect Street with a pedestrian promenade. The project must receive the

Though volunteers stepped forward to offer assistance with the construction, Fortune said LJVMA is still seeking monetary contributions for light panels, touch screens, electronics, carpeting, brochures and other items needed for the launch. Donors will have their names engraved on a plaque featured prominently at the new center. The rent on the new space will be about $90,000 to $100,000 a year more than the existing space, Coller said, though the LJVMA expects the organization will cover the rent through merchandise sales, advertising space and a $50,000 city grant formerly issued to the San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau to maintain the current Visitor Center.
n Golf Tourney: The LJVMA is adjusting plans for its involvement in the Farmers Insurance Open golf tournament, Jan. 21-27 at Torrey Pines Golf Course. The association could not obtain participation from parking garage operators weekdays, so a shuttle service to bring players, staff and visitors from the tournament to the Village will only be offered on the weekend. LJVMA plans to create banners welcoming golf fans to La Jolla. Haute La Jolla Nights events are planned for Thursday through Saturday of the tourney.

FROM MERCHANTS, A10 written approval of all 10 of the property owners, who would be affected by the adjustment to the public right-of-way and traffic circulation. Though several of the property owners have donated money toward the promenade, objection from just one of them could kill the entire project, Coller noted. If approved, Coller said he hopes construction on the Belvedere Promenade will begin after Labor Day 2013 and be completed by Spring Break of 2014. “That’s very optimistic, but that’s the plan,” Coller said.
FROM LA JOLLA SHORES, A3 The LJSA voted to suggest these projects: to add landscaping and outdoor furniture (picnic tables or a gazebo-like structure) to Laureate Park, to increase signage to Laureate Park regarding city regulations, to add a playground at Cliffridge Park, to label Pottery Canyon as a park, and to repair the landscaping and sprinkler systems in Kellogg Park. n Beach Vendors: After much discussion, it was decided a committee would be formed to develop a new, more consistent policy for commercial vendors. These include surf camps, kayak rentals and tours, paddle board rentals, SCUBA divers, etc. “We need people who have intelligent, thoughtful, constructive ways of putting together a policy,” said Chair Audrey Keane.

CRIME REPORT
Man arrested in rape of exchange student
Artist rendering of the proposed Hillel Center for Jewish Life on vacant land adjacent to UCSD, on the south side of La Jolla Village Drive. COURTESY FROM HILLEL, A1 by the San Diego City Council, including a reduction in the project’s size from 13,000 to 6,600 square feet and relocation of its entrance from the heavily-traveled La Jolla Scenic Drive North to La Jolla Scenic Way. Hillel is seeking community approval for a site development permit and right-ofway vacation at the .76-acre site. The project should go before the San Diego Planning Commission and City Council for ultimate approval sometime before April, project spokesman Michael Rabkin said. Despite community outcry over the project’s potential impacts, Rabkin said he has been meeting with La Jolla Shores residents in the area to be affected and is gaining more support for the project, once he explains its intent. “There was a misconception about what it is and what it’s for,” Rabkin said. “I’m hearing people talking about it as if it were
a fraternity or sorority. It’s a religious center for serious students and serious religious practice. It’s not about raucous parties — students have enough of those outlets elsewhere in the university environment.” Rabkin said he recently met with representatives from San Diego’s Human Relations Commission, who voted unanimously to send a letter in support of the project to the mayor and city council. Hillel purchased the land it hopes to develop from the city in 2006, for nearly $1 million. The project, which has been in the works for 14 years, hit a snag when a lawsuit filed by the group Taxpayers for Responsible Land use forced Hillel to obtain the environmental report. “The council has endorsed this project on multiple occasions,” Lapidus said. “I think our expectation is that we’ll get the majority (city council) vote for approval of the project.”

for a laptop computer. Rashon Abernathy, 18, and his 19-year-old friends, Seandell Jones and Shaquille Jordan, were also convicted of robbery, shooting at an occupied vehicle and auto theft. Jordan’s attorney, Zaki Zehawi, told Judge Garrett Berki Kerry Wells that the case would likely be appealed. Sentencing is set for Jan. 25. Abernathy faces up to 60 years to life in prison. Jordan and Jones could get 50 years to life. — City News Service

Scientists see progress on a methamphetamine vaccine
Research Report By LynnE Friedmann
Treating intestinal roundworms in the Third World
For billions of people, mostly in poor, undeveloped regions, intestinal roundworms are a debilitating fact of life. When these parasites infect children the results are stunted growth, poor mental development, and malnutrition. Intestinal roundworms also have a major impact on the health of pregnant women and other adults. Developing antiroundworm treatments is expensive and delivery to billions of people in the Third World impractical. This led a UC San Diego biologist to investigate bacteria that possess a crystalline protein toxic to intestinal roundworms. This crystal protein, known as Cry5B, is produced by the Bt, or Bacillus thuringiensis bacterium, which is sprayed on crops by organic farmers to kill a variety of insects, including the tobacco hornworm. In laboratory studies, hamsters infected with human hookworms were cured by introducing Cry5B into their diet. The UCSD team was recently awarded a two-year $1 million grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to conduct further research on the biology of this approach. Envisioned one day is a dried form of the bacteria packaged for delivery to Third World countries that can then be added to food and beverages for human consumption. — More information at http://bit.ly/Q39CIL Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.

O
ver the past two decades, methamphetamine has become one of the most common drugs of abuse estimated to affect 25 million people worldwide. In the United States alone there are an estimated 400,000 users, and in some states meth accounts for more primary drug abuse treatment admissions than any other drug. Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) report successful tests of an prototype methamphetamine vaccine on rats. A vaccine against any addictive substance needs to evoke antibody responses against drug molecules, just as traditional vaccines evoke antibody responses against viruses or bacteria. The antidrug antibodies perform their job by grabbing hold of drug molecules and keeping them from entering the brain — preventing the drug high and removing the user’s incentive for taking the drug. Meth poses a problem for vaccine development in that the methamphetamine molecule is structurally simple, making it relatively unnoticeable to the immune system. TSRI researchers are getting around this by linking a chemical similar to the methamphetamine molecule to a larger carrier molecule in order to produce the desired antibody response. Vaccinated animals that received the experimental vaccine were largely protected from typical signs of meth intoxication. — The findings are scheduled for publication in the journal Biological Psychiatry. News release at http://bit.ly/SK8NjW
How intellect and behavior emerge during childhood Scientists from the Florida campus of The Scripps Research Institute have shown that a single protein plays an oversized role in intellectual and behavioral development. Furthermore, mutations in the gene that encodes this protein severely disrupt the organization of developing brain circuits during early childhood leading to intellectual disabilities. The study focused on a critical synaptic protein known as SynGAP1. Using animal models that were missing just one copy of SynGAP1, researchers found that certain synapses develop prematurely in the period shortly after birth. This dramatically enhances what is known as “excitability” — how often brain cells fire — in the developing hippocampus, a part of the brain critical for memory. The balance between excitability and inhibition is especially critical during early developmental periods, when neural connections that ultimately give rise to normal cognitive and behavioral functions are forming. Until this study, it was unclear precisely how pathogenic genetic mutations and synapse function were related to the failure to develop normal intellect. — News release at http://bit. ly/TxTFon

New Ohana Café bids ‘Aloha!’ to La Jolla By Marti Gacioch The owners of the new Ohana Café at 456 Pearl St. want to say “Aloha La Jolla!” with their blend of Hawaiian BBQ and Pacificfusion dishes. Café partners Larry Chou and Becky Kuba teamed up to open the family restaurant a month ago. They celebrated their grand opening last week with an afternoon of live music by the Nalukai band and jazz guitarist Keni Yarbrough. Kuba, who is also a dance instructor for the Carlsbad Hawaiian group, Ke Polani Ohana E Kai (The Beautiful Family By The Sea), performed with 12 members of the troupe. “Our grand opening was awesome,” Kuba said. “I handed out samples until it got way too busy; we were swamped the entire day.” Chou and Kuba are tennis partners. When they met, Chou said he was considering opening a restaurant, and Kuba, trained in Hawaiian cuisine by her mother, was eager to introduce La Jollans to island cooking. The Ohana (“family” in Hawaiian) Café is the tasty result of their collaborative inspiration. “My mother was from Hawaii and I grew up learning her recipes,” Kuba said. “I’ve been catering for parties, events and fundraisers for quite awhile.”
Ohana Café held its grand opening on Nov. 11. The restaurant is recognizable with thatching along the building. Kuba said the café’s most popular dish is teriyaki chicken with rice. It comes with a choice of side dishes, which include edamame, macaroni salad or sumi cabbage salad (with almonds, ramen noodles, cilantro, onions, topped with a light Asian vinaigrette dressing) or Seaweed Somen salad, a mix of seaweed with somen noodles. Loco Moco, another favorite Hawaiian dish, features a hamburger patty topped with eggs over-easy and gravy served over rice. Spam is prominently featured in many of
Ohana’s dishes, including plates with fried spam and eggs with rice, or spam with sausage, pork or a medley of vegetables. “We sell a ton of spam musubi,” Kuba said. “It’s like a Hawaiian sushi-type roll wrapped in seaweed, and it comes with rice with fried spam in the middle.” Additional breakfast items include handmade pancakes with bananas and coconut syrup. Ohana serves a range of Hawaiian Sun flavors, including guava, mango and orange

pineapple juice, as well as Kona coffee (regular or chocolate macadamia nut). Ohana’s rainbow of shaved ice flavors, including banana mango, cotton candy, watermelon, kiwi, blue raspberry, cherry, passion fruit, and tangerine pineapple, are proving a popular after-school treat for La Jolla students. — Ohana Café, 456 Pearl St., La Jolla.

Brewers gather in La Jolla to close San Diego Beer Week By Ashley Mackin San Diego Beer Week ended at The Lodge at Torrey Pines on Nov. 11 with its annual Beer Garden, a food-andbeer pairing afternoon. The sold-out event brought 10 local chefs and 20 San Diego brewers together to demonstrate how beer and food go together. The upswing of food and beer pairing is a trend noticed by the Brewers Guild. “The beauty of beer is we can do so many different styles and (there are) so many different flavor profiles that we can pair a wider range of food with beer than you can with wine,” said Brian Scott, vice president of the San Diego Brewers Guild. “At each station, we have two different beers paired with food, and those two beers can be widely different from each other and still pair well with the food.” The Shores Restaurant Chef Amy DiBiase paired her dish, a smoked salmon with beet relish and horseradish crème, with either a Thunderweizen (a light hefeweizen) from Lightning

She said when it came to pairing beer to her dish, she was glad to have the brewers that she did. The chefs get their choice of brewers, who work with them to decide which beers would pair best with their menus. “I had an idea for a dish, they came in and brought a bunch of beer and we just sat down and tried the dish

with the different beers and (had a) back and forth,” she said. In the end, “it’s a great pairing.” Scott added, “There is not just one style that’s popular, it’s a little bit of everything for everyone. That’s the beauty of beer, there’s a lot of different styles that fit everything from mood to what you’re eating to where you are.” In addition to Beer Week engaging the San Diego beer community, the Beer Garden
brought in visitors from out of state. The Brewers Guild conducted surveys on behalf of the City of San Diego to see event’s impact on tourism. Past years indicated 20 percent of people come from out of town — Pennsylvania, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico. The reasons for the attraction involve the attitude and the availability of “beer people.” “I like the beer scene,” said DiBiase. “It’s a little

more relaxed and everyone is a little more calm, and you have a good time and everyone appreciates everything that’s going on, that’s why I like to be a part of this event.” Lyndon Walker, a brewer with Karl Strauss in La Jolla, suggested that when pairing, look for taste similarities. Some beers known as Amber Ales have caramel malts in them. These go well with caramelized meats and

caramelized onions. Stouts are sweeter and richer, so they pair well with desserts. India Pale Ales (IPAs) often have a bitter finish that acts as a palate cleanser, so IPAs pair well with spicy foods. Seasonal beers may have pumpkin flavoring or pumpkin pie spices. A winter beer to be released in December will have the “Christmas-y” flavors of orange peel, cherries, cloves, cinnamon and vanilla.

W
e La Jollans know we have much to be thankful for. The beauty of our surroundings is world class. The weather that greets us every morning is a friend. Our neighbors are generally successful contributors to society on the highest levels — in science, education, medicine, finance, technology, commerce and the arts. That’s why this day is especially relevant to us. We are so very grateful for these many gifts and the day set aside to reflect on them. We at the La Jolla Light would like to use this editorial space to say thank you to our readers and advertisers. Joining together, we are achieving much good in our beloved Jewel and working toward creating an even stronger, more vital community that serves its residents as well as the surrounding areas, improving the quality of life for all. On that glorious note, we propose a toast to our readers and all the visitors in town this week: May your stuffing be tasty May your turkey plump May your potatoes and gravy Have nary a lump. May your yams be delicious And your pies take the prize, And may your Thanksgiving dinner Stay off your thighs! — Author Unknown

Scott Peters stands ready to serve This afternoon (Nov. 16) I received a very gracious phone call from Congressman Brian Bilbray. He wished me luck and offered his support. We agreed that while it was a tough, hard-fought campaign, now is the time to put it behind us. I thanked him for his service and look forward to his support as I transition into office. I’m in our nation’s capitol this week, working hard, and getting ready to hit the ground running on behalf of the people of the 52nd District. I am very grateful to the hundreds of people who walked, called, contributed and gave me their support; it was their energy and enthusiasm that put us over the top in this close race.
There’s much to do. I’m encouraged by the tremendous group of colleagues I’ve met here so far: freshman members of Congress, because like me, they all heard loud and clear during their campaigns that voters are tired of the partisanship, tired of politicians who put party over people. I look forward to working with everyone to get things done for San Diego and the American people. Congressman-elect Scott Peters La Jolla

Obamacare is causing a deep doctor depression By Sally C. Pipes Taube Fellow in Health Care Studies, Pacific Research Institute
T
hanks to Obamacare, America’s corps of doctors appears to have a case of the blues. The Physicians Foundation recently asked more than 13,000 doctors about their morale, their career plans, their practices, and their views of Obamacare. The results were grim. Nearly six in 10 doctors said that they are less positive about the future of health care in America under Obamacare. Almost twothirds have a negative attitude toward their jobs — nearly twice as many as before Obamacare passed. As a result, many doctors are cutting back on their workloads or shuttering their practices altogether. Worse, their collective frustration is exacerbating our nation’s troubling doctor shortage. More than three-fifths of doctors say they would retire today if they could, compared with 45 percent before Obamacare. Eightyfour percent say the medical profession is in
GUEST COMMENTARY decline. Fewer doctors say they would enter the profession today if they had it to do over again, and fewer would recommend it to their children. This decline in doctors’ morale is taking a toll on Americans’ ability to access care. Physicians report working almost 6 percent fewer hours than they did four years ago. That’s about two and a half hours less per week per doctor. Add up all the hours, and it’s the equivalent of losing more than 44,000 full-time physicians. Doctors also report seeing some 16 percent fewer patients than they did in 2008. That represents tens of millions fewer doctorpatient encounters each year. More than half of those surveyed say they plan to cut back further on the time they devote to patient care, to work part time, to retire, or to switch to direct-pay “concierge”type medical practices, which are beyond the reach of many of Obamacare’s rules and regulations. Even before Obamacare became law, America faced a chronic doctor shortage,
Romneys attend ‘Twilight’ at cinema in Del Mar La Jolla resident and former presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his wife, Ann, were photographed at a screening of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2” at Cinepolis, Del Mar, Internet gossip website TMZ.com reported. TMZ posted fuzzy pictures of the Romneys, who apparently went to the movies in the company of two unidentified young men. “After the movie, Mitt and Ann (with no bodyguards in sight) hit up a pizzeria across the street,” TMZ.com reported. “We’re told he was super-friendly to everyone, even posing for a few pics.” Romney owns an oceanfront home in La Jolla. — City News Service
with a gap of 14,000 physicians in 2010. And the problem will only grow worse. According to the Association of American Medical Colleges, Obamacare will push the doctor shortage up to 63,000 by 2015 — and more than 91,000 by 2020. That’s in addition to the full-time-equivalent losses from doctors working fewer hours. Obamacare’s $716 billion worth of cuts to Medicare are partially to blame. The law creates an “Independent Payment Advisory Board” charged with restraining the growth of Medicare spending. The Board may not ration care or reduce seniors’ benefits — so its only real option for reducing spending will be cutting reimbursement rates for healthcare providers who treat Medicare patients. And that will discourage doctors from seeing them. A 2010 survey by the American Medical Association found that nearly a third of primary care physicians already restrict the number of Medicare patients they accept because of low reimbursement rates. This year’s Physicians Foundation survey found
IN BRIEF
UC San Diego named top vegan-friendly school Tens of thousands of students voted UC San Diego as the No. 1 vegan-friendly school in the nation, according to peta2, a youth division of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. UCSD’s top ranking in the annual Most Vegan-Friendly College Contest, was clinched with the recent opening of Roots, a new eatery that is the university’s first exclusive vegetarian/vegan restaurant and lounge, located at Muir College. In the contest, UCSD bested 32 other large universities, including two other UC campuses — Berkeley and Los Angeles.
that it’s grown even harder for seniors to find a doctor, as more than half of physicians currently limit the number of Medicare patients they’ll accept — or plan to do so. For the low-income folks covered by Medicaid, securing a doctor’s appointment is even more difficult. Fewer than half of primary care doctors take on new Medicaid patients, for whom reimbursement rates are lower than in Medicare. And again, Obamacare will only make things worse. The healthcare law will expand Medicaid coverage to some seven million additional people by 2014. These folks may be newly insured — but they likely won’t be able to see a doctor. When he stumped for healthcare reform three years ago, President Obama said that doctors would be the best judges of his efforts because they “know the health care system best.” He was certainly right about that. And by quitting the profession in droves, their verdict is in. It’s high time to pull the plug on a law that is already exacerbating America’s shortage of doctors — and may soon deprive Americans of adequate access to health care.
Chipotle CEO purchases former Revelle home Coldwell Banker announced the sale of the former Roger Revelle home in La Jolla for $8.5 million. Chipotle Mexican eatery co-CEO Montgomery Morgan and wife, Kathryn, purchased the property, according to a report by the North County Times. The 4,162-square-foot home is located in La Jolla’s Barber Tract, where Mitt Romney owns a home. The property includes a main house with five bedrooms, four baths, a lanai and office. A guesthouse has one bedroom and one bath. Revelle, a oceanographer who died in 1991, was one of the first scientists to raise the issue of global warming. The two-story home, coined “Casa del Lido” (Home on the Beach), had been in the Revelle family since it was built in 1922.

La Jollans join restaurateur to raise funds and hope for Superstorm Sandy victims By Ashley Mackin Restaurateur James Brennan, co-owner of Herringbone in La Jolla and others, is raising money for those affected by Superstorm Sandy. The Rockaway, New York native’s efforts have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and he is currently on the East Coast helping to rebuild homes. Since the storm, which hit New York and New Jersey in late October, Brennan has held fundraisers at Herringbone to help the victims. He also launched the Rockaway Relief Fund through Catholic Charities of San Diego. Sister RayMonda Duvall of Catholic Charities said it is accepting donations on behalf of the Relief Fund. “We’ve been passing on the money to the Rockaway area for services and equipment that’s being purchased (such

Bishop’s, Cathedral earn berths in CIF boys’ water polo final By Rick LeBeau Continuing performances that earned them the first and second seeds in this year’s Division III boys’ water polo CIF playoff brackets, The Bishop’s School and Cathedral Catholic took different routes to the finals in the Nov. 13 semifinal matches at the Coggan Aquatic Complex at La Jolla High. In the evening’s first game, Tommy Higginson scored out of two meters to put the Knights on the board in their second possession of the game. It took a couple minutes longer for the Vikings to score, but Jimmy LeBeau finally tied the game halfway through the first quarter. The defenses continued to dominate the rest of the quarter, until the Knights’ offense suddenly broke through with goals on four consecutive possessions, making it look effortless, to go up 5-1 with 3:45 remaining in the half. La Jolla was not about to concede, however, and came storming back with three goals of their own in the next minute. Higginson then scored the half’s final goal and the two teams resumed their defensive struggle for almost a full quarter of play. Viktor Roble put home the first of

With just under a minute remaining in the third quarter, Richard Daly gave the Knights that two-goal lead again. After Brock Macelli scored his second goal of the game to make it 8-7 in favor of the Knights with four minutes to go, Bishop’s got back-toback goals from Wrobel and Stephen Tifft to once again take a
commanding lead with just three minutes remaining. LeBeau then scored his third and final goal of the game for the Vikings, who still had hope with 1:50 remaining in regulation. La Jolla’s defense then did its job, setting up a chance to pull within one with a minute to go, but Cole Martinez’ laser shot from the left wing was blocked high in the air by Caleb Schultz to preserve the final margin of victory as the Knights

FROM WATER POLO, A21 finally exhaled, escaping with a 10-8 victory. According to Coach Jim Fales, the key to the game was Higginson’s ability to score early out of the center position, forcing La Jolla’s defense to make adjustments that allowed the Knights’ outside scorers to have more uncontested shots. He also singled out Shultz’ play in goal, with a dozen saves. In the evening’s second game, Cathedral came out ready to play, and thoroughly outmanned and outgunned a Coronado team missing key players due to illness. Jacob Fujioka got the Dons on the board with the first quarter’s only goal, but after Nado tied the game on a 5-meter penalty shot by Aaron Polk, Cathedral put up three
more goals and led 4-2 at intermission. They were never headed again, as they built their lead over the course of the second half, extending it eventually to the final margin of 10-3. Cody Smith and Jordan Colina led the Dons with three goals each, while Grant Curry and Dylan Smith each contributed to the offensive barrage as well. At press time, Cathedral and Bishop’s met for the fourth time this season on Nov. 17 at Coggan. Bishop’s won the first two matches, while Cathedral took the most recent meeting a few weeks ago. It should be as tight as last year’s semifinal tilt between the two teams, won by Bishop’s in sudden death overtime, 13-12.

10 QUESTIONS
Her logical mind led Ann Pitzer to career in software Ann E. Pitzer was born in Berkeley, Calif., the eldest of three children of Kenneth S. Pitzer, a noted chemist on the Berkeley faculty, and Jean M. Pitzer. The family lived in Kensington; she went to school there and at El Cerrito, except for two intervals when they lived in the Washington, D.C. area. After high school, Pitzer attended UC Davis, majoring in Home Economics with a strong general science Ann Pitzer emphasis and was a commencement speaker. She then attended UC Berkeley for a year, earning a masters degree in Textiles. Her first job was as a home agent for the University of Hawaii Extension Service on the island of Kauai. After two years, she moved to Houston and managed a gift shop owned by a group of artists. Though fun and interesting, she decided to start computer programming at Baylor Medical School. That led to her move to La Jolla and work at the Salk Institute. She worked for SAIC for 23 years doing software development. Retired since 2000, Pitzer is now a trustee of the Pitzer Family Foundation (founded by her parents), Pitzer College (founded by her grandfather), and the UC Davis Foundation. She enjoys traveling and volunteer work at the Visions Art Museum: Contemporary Quilts and Textiles in Point Loma. She is the widow of Captain Fred B. Bromley, a former Navy fighter pilot. She has five stepdaughters, seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. What brought you to La Jolla? In 1970, I was working as a programmer at Baylor Medical School in Houston when Dr. Guilleman’s lab moved to the Salk Institute. They offered me a job and I moved to La Jolla, too. Being a California native I was happy to be back. What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? I would remove the red lines painted on the streets in our neighborhood and have all of the construction happily completed. Hopefully, then all would be able to and would park sensibly.

Harry Potter Wizard’s Collection
his gift set is a must-have for any serious Potterphile. One reviewer called it “The most awesome video boxed set ever made.” This limited-edition, 31-disc collection contains all eight “Harry Potter” movies on Blu-ray, DVD and UltraViolet Digital Copy and more than 37 hours of special features including all previously released materials, more than 10 hours of new bonus content, and 5 hours of never-before-seen material. The gigantic box magically opens up to multiple compartments and drawers. It also has a collection of artifacts related to the movies, including a Hogwarts Castle blueprint, fabric map of Hogwarts and surroundings, Horcrux locket, lithographs, concept-art sketches by production designer Stuart Craig, and two booklets filled with art from the films. It retails for $500, but Amazon is selling it for $344.99, Walmart for $344.88. — Daniel K. Lew
WISH I’D SAID THAT!
TRUE OR FALSE?
Turkeys have eyes in the back of their head. Sort of. A wild turkey has excellent vision and hearing. Their field of vision is about 270 degrees. And they’re fast, too! A spooked turkey can run at speeds up to 20 miles per hour. They can also burst into flight approaching speeds between 50-55 mph in a matter of seconds. — home.aristotle.net

Stella Maris student hosts bake sale for Sandy victims
S
ixth-grader Christopher Nadhir, 12, hosted a bake sale to benefit victims of Superstorm Sandy on Nov. 15 at Stella Maris Academy. Fundraising apparently runs in the family, as Nadhir’s older sister held a similar bake sale after 9/11. Money raised through selling donated items will go toward the repair of the Our Lady of Czestochowa School in New York, which was flooded in the storm. The lower floors of the school — including the cafeteria, kitchen, electrical system and some classrooms — were destroyed. Our Lady of Czestochowa hopes to become a sister school to Stella Maris. Stella Maris Principal Patricia Lowell’s grandchildren attend the New York school. Nadhir will also host a bake sale during the Dec. 2 La Jolla Christmas Parade to support the school.
Graffiti Clash—on Park Thursday, November 29, 2012, 7:00 PM The Athenaeum's gritty, industrial art studio on Park Blvd. is the scene of a battle of graffiti artists. The street pierces the veneer of the studio as graffiti artists duel side by side while the spectators get their hands dirty painting an unscripted mural along the wall of the studio. Underground hip hop/rap duo Brother Nature will lay down the beat, painting their fresh, poetic lyrics over a classic rhythm. Come to the A List with other art and music lovers and join in a confrontation of graffiti vs. rap, food vs. drink, and artist vs. artist. Sponsored by Glaceau vitaminwater and Park Blvd. Foods. Free for A List members and $12 for general public. 21+ 4441 Park Blvd., San Diego, CA, 92116 (858) 454-5872 www.ljathenaeum.org/alist

The main dining room features a gigantic window facing I-5.
It’s dining to a gold standard at Ruth’s Chris Steak House By Kelley Carlson t the Ruth’s Chris Steak House in North County San Diego, guests are treated to the best of two regions — idyllic California sunsets and Southern hospitality. Not your typical “dark” steak house and different from the 134 other restaurants in the chain, this particular Ruth’s Chris has windows that stretch from the floor to the high ceiling, allowing for an abundance of light as the sun makes its way across the sky and seemingly descends into the ocean, just on the other side of Interstate 5. Through the main dining room’s glass, patrons can also see the rays glinting off the 36-foot silver sculpture by Encinitas-based artist Jeffery Laudenslage, titled “Archimage,” (which means “great magician”). The piece stands guard at the Torrey Reserve business complex and continues to glow at night through artificial lighting. Despite the grand setting, diners can expect to feel as if they’re at home. “We aim for treating people as if they’re in their own living room,” said general manager Bobby Daitch. It’s a signature trait of the chain that stems from its early days, when Ruth Fertel, a single mother of two and professor at Tulane University in New Orleans, mortgaged her home for $22,000 to buy Chris Steak House in 1965. A handson owner, she cut meat, poured drinks and kept the books, and exuded friendliness. While the Ruth’s Chris in North County often draws people from as far away as Murrieta and Escondido, many live nearby and the staff know them by name, Daitch said. In fact, the bar/lounge, which opens a half-hour before the dining room, is really

Or they select the Ruth’s Chop Salad (julienne iceberg lettuce, baby spinach and radicchio tossed with red onions, green olives, eggs, mushrooms, bacon, hearts of palm, bleu cheese, croutons and lemon basil dressing, topped with crispy onions) and sip a glass of wine while socializing. Yet others indulge in handcrafted cocktails, such as the Raspberry Rosemary Cosmo or the classic Moscow Mule, while listening to the sounds of jazz music. For lunch or dinner, patrons congregate in the main dining room, where nearly every table has a scenic view. Daitch suggests asking the server for advice and guidance on what to order. “They’re pros; most of them have worked here for a long

time,” he said, including Executive Chef Nef Hernandez, who has been there since Day 1. The trademark of Ruth’s Chris is the sizzling, juicy steaks that are prepared in 1,800-degree ovens designed by Fertel, and served to customers on 500-degree plates. The Filet is “the proper way to go,” Daitch said. It’s cut from corn-fed Midwestern beef and broiled. Big meat eaters may lean toward the Cowboy Ribeye. Fertel’s favorite was the New York Strip, which has a full-bodied texture that is slightly firmer than the rich and marbled Ribeye. And each selection can be paired with potato and vegetable sides, including Fertel’s original Creamed Spinach. Non-steak eaters can choose from seafood, chicken and vegetarian entrees.

Women’s Museum celebrates women of broadcast history By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt n Nov. 9, at Liberty Station’s McMillan Event Center, the Women’s Museum of California (now located in Liberty Station) celebrated Women of Broadcast History with a special event that included a tribute to Gloria Penner, whose groundbreaking work in radio and television put her in the forefront of San Diego’s women “on air.” Penner, a multi-award-winner who died Oct. 6 after a yearlong battle with pancreatic cancer, joined KPBS as a journalist in 1969. An expert in politics and public affairs, she was a gifted interviewer of local movers and shakers, and a role model for women in broadcasting in San Diego and beyond. Among the 14 other broadcasters honored were KGTV news anchor Kimberly Hunt, former KGTV anchor Bree Walker, and Kathi Diamant, former SunUp San Diego coanchor and a colleague of Penner’s at KPBS. After dinner, and before introducing the honorees, Women’s Museum Director Ashley Gardner addressed the upbeat gathering: “What a wonderful thing to do — have a party on a Friday night with all your friends!” She also announced a lasting tribute: the establishment of a Gloria Penner Educational Fund to support special projects and programming at the Women’s Museum.

www.lajollalight.com FROM 10 QUESTIONS, B1 Who or what inspires you? Mother Nature. One of the great things about being in California is the spectacular variety provided by nature. I love the ocean, high sierras, deserts, and all. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Far more than eight pop into my head, but here is a mix of people it would be fun to have dinner with. Some are of historical note, including ones I have read books about recently. And of course, a little entertainment would be nice: Alexander the Great, Galileo and his daughter Maria Celeste, Jane Austen,

President and Michelle Obama, Ella Fitzgerald, and Fred Bromley, my husband. What are you reading? I have just started reading “Calendar” by David Duncan. Some of my favorites are the Susan Vreeland and Tracey Chevalier novels about artists, and Joseph Ellis’ books about the founders of the country. What is it that you most dislike? I really dislike intolerance of other’s thoughts and beliefs. It generates such negative behaviors. And I am tired of long political campaigns. What do you do for fun? I enjoy attending the San Diego and La Jolla symphonies, going to art
museums and the theater, reading, eating good food, visiting with friends and travel. And if there is any free time left, sewing quilts. What is your mostmarked characteristic? I am told I have common sense, am logical and persistent. What is your motto or philosophy of life? Try not to hurt anyone and keep busy doing interesting things. What would be your dream vacation? I always have a list of trips I would like to take. On the top my list right now is a trip to Bali that has an emphasis on culture and the beautiful textiles they produce, with some relaxation time to enjoy it all.

Yoshimi’s battle for life is a victory for theatergoers If you go ■ What: World premiere musical, ‘Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots,’ with the music of The Flaming Lips
Let’s Review
■ When: Matinees/ evenings to Dec. 16
D
■ Tickets: From $15.
By diana Saenger irector Des McAnuff’s world-premiere musical production of “Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots,” at the La Jolla Playhouse is mesmerizing. Rarely have I seen an audience so enthralled that heads didn’t move, bodies didn’t twitch, and occasionally, I saw some folks wiping tears from their eyes. The story follows Yoshimi (Kimiko Glenn), a beautiful young Japanese artist stricken with lymphoma. Her doctor (John Haggerty) informs her that she’s in for the fight of her life, and likens the diseased cells in her body to pink robots. Through the vision of McAnuff, with inspiration from the music of The Flaming Lips and leader Wayne Coyne, those robots — from a planet in the past — feature 3-D shell modeling and LED lights. They become actual creatures that partici-

■ Where: La Jolla Playhouse, Mandell Weiss Theatre, UCSD campus ■ Phone: (858) 550-1010 ■W ebsite: LaJollaPlayhouse.org pate in the telling of the story arranged from many of the band’s iconic tunes. Combing science fiction, amazing scenic designs by Robert Brill, and natural, flowing choreography by Bradley Rapier, this show is unpredictable, engaging every minute. Romance also plays a big part in the story as Yoshimi has two suitors, but only one who will stick with her through her months of endless treatments and anguish. Paul Nolan plays Ben, a guy who sees beyond Yoshimi’s ailments to the girl inside that he’s not shy about telling the world he
loves. Nolan (“Jesus Christ Superstar” on Broadway and the La Jolla Playhouse) is a firecracker every time he takes the stage. What a voice. Every song sung, especially, “What is the Light,” oozed heartfelt emotion. His energy fuels every moment of the play. Another guy, Booker (Nik Walker), a straightup Wall Street-By-The-Numbers dude, also loves Yoshimi. He showers her with romantic caresses, but only shows his emotions to Yoshimi. In addition to the fitting music and dance arrangements, directed by Ron Melrose, the story is told through many remarkable presentations. At times, the characters text each other and their messages are seen in big, black boxes on the stage. Stock market circuit boards, a moving floor vacuum, and large TV screens are some of the other technological gadgets incorporated into the story. From puppeteer Basil Twist’s 14-foot creation of the 3000-21 robot that moves, talks and feels emotion — to the topnotch synchronization of the robots — to Glenn’s elegant and poignant portrayal of Yoshimi and the emotional tug at the end — this show is non-stop enchantment.

Panelists Des McAnuff, Christopher Ashley, Pamela Itkin-Ansari and Santiago Horgan
Science plays to art in staging of ‘Yoshimi’ By Lynne Friedmann This month the La Jolla Playhouse presents the world premiere of the musical “Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.” It also heralds one of the most technically complex and challenging productions in the Playhouse’s history, featuring dancers in glowing LED costumes, extensive multimedia projections, and a 14-foot robot puppet. Add to this, consultation with biotech and medical experts in order to craft the story about a woman in a love triangle facing a life-threatening illness. This intersection of technology and creativity prompted the Playhouse to invite the public to take part in a conversation with scientists and theater artists about “The Art in Science — The Science in Art.” The discussion took place Nov. 11 at the Mandell Weiss Forum. Attendance was standing room only. “I think we’ve always had a relationship with technology and science in the theater,” said panelist Des McAnuff, the musical’s cowriter and director. Dating back to the Ancient Greeks, he said, the style and materials used in outdoor amphitheaters (some seating upwards of 6,000 people) were chosen based on knowledge at the time about amplifying sound. In the era of Shakespeare, theater moved indoors opening new creative avenues for lighting and special effects. And, in this intimate setting, playwriting itself began to change incorporating more psychology into story lines. Harkening back to his arrival at the Playhouse in 1982, McAnuff recalled the first adoption of computerized boards in productions, but that was undertaken only as a cost-saving measure to squeeze additional life out of antiquated 1950s-era technology. “Since then, the theater has transformed tremendously,” he said. “It’s a whole new world, and it comes directly from science.” In many ways the theatrical world rhymes with the scientific world, according Christopher Ashley, artistic director of the Playhouse. “What we do is experimentation,” Ashley said. “We’re engaged in an iterative process figuring out what the art wants to be, and daring to fail in order to reconsider, rework, re-engineer, rewrite, restage.” Added Gerald Joyce, professor at The Scripps Research Institute whose laboratory recently described the first example (outside of biology) of a self-replicating molecule capable of evolving. “(In science) we are more risk adverse than we used to be. But you need to deal with failure,” Joyce said. “I like to say to my students the best

experiment is one that has a 50:50 chance of succeeding because you get the most information that way.” Art as an illustration of reality has long fascinated humans, with some of the earliest studies of vision made by artists such as Leonardo daVinci, who wrote extensively about visual perception. “There’s an obvious relationship between understanding the visual system and the appreciation and creation of art,” said neuroscientist Tom Albright, director of the Vision Center Laboratory, at The Salk Institute. Just as a theatrical experience can broaden the mind, new methods in research and medicine work to change the thought process, expand frontiers, and alter what is considered possible. Once upon a time, a prevailing attitude was the “bigger the scar and the better the surgeon,” according to Santiago Horgan, director of Minimally Invasive Surgery, UCSD School of Medicine. Horgan is the foremost expert in Natural Orifice Translumenal Endoscopic Surgery, a procedure in which surgical instruments are passed through a natural orifice, such as the mouth, to reach the desired organ. That means no scars. In reference to the importance of speeches and conference presentations to a researcher’s career, Christopher Ashley opined, “Scientists are performers.” This evoked nods of agreement from panelists. “As scientists, our work doesn’t exist until we present it to peers and see how they react,” said Pamela Itkin-Ansari, of the Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, whose research is focused on cancer and other diseases of the pancreas. Another point of convergence between the arts and sciences is a sense of collaboration, according to McAnuff. “We share information, we share our thoughts, we support each other,” he said. “Also, we require imagination and the ability to dream.”

Frank the Train Man The purchase of a train set can provide years of delight and joy, creating a new custom for your family. No one can better offer you the train selection and purchase advice than Jim and Carmen Cooley. It would be easy to assume that Jim is Frank “The Trainman,� the namesake of the museum and San Diego’s oldest train store, but that isn’t true. Frank Cox was a close friend of Jim’s who passed away in 1989. Jim bought the store from Cox in 1980 and left it and its name relatively unchanged as a tribute to his friend. Jim and his wife, Carmen, have worked closely together in their automotive museum and train store since the purchase some 32 years ago. The store doesn’t have much in the way of a website so most of the train sales are done face-to-face with people who live in or are visiting San Diego. Frank the Trainman, 4233 Park Blvd, SD 92103.

Wes Bruce brings storehouse of memories to Lux Art Institute By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Just before dusk on an evening in late October visitors started making their way up the steep Encinitas hillside that leads to Lux Art Institute for the opening of Wes Bruce’s new installation, nearly a year in the making. Bruce received a San Diego Foundation Creative Catalyst Grant for “Structures Poetry Humans,” a project exploring the poetic relationship between people and the structures they inhabit. In his proposal, he wrote: “Most people today live life in connection with a cast of different structures ... home, hospital, classroom, workplace, crawlspace … place of worship … make-shift shelter. We interact with these structures, create and recall memories, meaning, purpose, thoughts, fears, and daydreams in and around them. These structures act as minor characters in many of our stories, ranging the full spectrum of emotion, experience, and human condition.” He proposed to collect as many of such stories as possible, and create a storehouse which would both enshrine the stories and give visitors a chance to recall their own memories. On the project’s website, he documented his process with a calendar of poetry and pictures, and invited friends and strangers to share their personal stories. Over the year, while gathering stories online and faded photos out in the “real” world, he built a pair

Inside the hilltop structure: Words
of shack-like structures at Lux. The L-shaped hilltop structure is filled with words and images from the past. Here memories are palpable, with hundreds of paper strips containing excerpts from submitted stories hanging from the rafters, and an arresting array of found photographs covering the walls. It’s a very special experience
Jollan, said Bruce was one of 26 artists who wanted Lux as a partner for their proposed Creative Catalyst projects. “We chose him because we thought his piece was so interesting — the yearlong buildup, the poetry, and the creation of the structures,” she said. “Plus, it lets us work on a project beyond our usual residency and art
to move through the structure, contemplating the lives whispering around you, becoming part of what the artist calls “a living metaphor.” Down below, just past the entrance to Lux, is the smaller structure, more like a bus-stop shelter, its insides plastered with more story excerpts. Lux’s founding director Reesey Shaw, a long-time La

education programming, and the interactive nature of the piece perfectly reflects Lux’s mission to engage visitors in the creative process. And for Wes, the site here was very poetic. He really felt an affinity for the place.” The artist answered, “It’s a thrill to have worked such a long time on the project, and then have a chance to
share it. Getting to build the structure from the ground up, and having it outside the museum instead of in it. Every piece of paper has a different personality, and they all have different voices as the wind blows through. And since each one is derived from a really deep personal source, it encourages visitors to dive deeper into themselves.” This has been a big year for Bruce, who just got married a little over a month ago, to social worker and craftsperson Emi Sam Bruce. They’re currently making a patchwork quilt together. “She’s my partner in crime,” he said.

Art museums launch collaborative ‘Behold, America!’
United they stand: Directors of the three collaborating museums — Hugh Davies (MCASD), Roxana Velasquez (SDMA) and John Wilson (Timken) — posed together at the members’ preview celebration of ‘Behold, America!’ PHOTOS BY Maurice Hewitt
By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt he Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla celebrated the opening of a threemuseum exhibition called “Behold, America!” on Nov. 8. It’s a grand collaboration featuring American works from the permanent collections of MCASD, San Diego Museum of Art, and the Timken Museum. Hundreds of museum members gathered for the preview, a progressive art party which began in La Jolla and moved on to the other two venues in Balboa Park. A sweeping look at the history of American art from colonial times to the present, the exhibition is grouped into three sections: Figures, Forms and Frontiers. MCASD emphasizes Frontiers — i.e. landscapes; at SDMA, it’s Figures — i.e. portraits; and the Timken focuses on Forms, from traditional still-lifes to contemporary minimalism. Addressing the crowd at the preview, SDMA Director Roxana Velasquez called the exhibit an example of what the synergy between art institutions can achieve. “Together, we are building the cultural community San Diego deserves,” she said. Behold, America! will be on view at all three museums through Feb. 10. For information, see mcasd.org/exhibitions.

When grease meets turkey Even though such rock star foodies like Emeril Lagasse and Paula Dean give the thumbs up for deepfrying a Thanksgiving turkey to yield a moist and juicy bird, you now have gallons of old grease on hand. Puh-leeze, don’t feed it down your drain. If you’re eco-inspired, you can donate your used vegetable oil to a recycling facility that will process the oil into a biodiesel fuel using a
Rolling in dough With assorted pastries and doughs you can whip some divine dishes in a jiff for lunches, appetizers or light dinners. Artisan puff pastry makes a flakier, lighter turkey pot pie or turkey wild mushroom strudel. Phyllo dough does a great riff on Greek spanakopita with turkey, spinach and feta or a turkey tenderloin wrapped in the paper-thin layered pastry. Use pizza crust for a turkey margarita pie or top with zesty bbq turkey strips. A melting pot Leftover turkey goes ethnic with such global concoctions as a fowl fiesta of south-ofthe-border turkey quesadillas, tacos or burritos; turkey Italiano with turkey lasagna, turkey and wild mushroom risotto, or turkey alfredo with fettuccine; Mediterranean meals with a Persian stew of chopped turkey, ground walnuts and pomegranate paste, Greek salad with turkey chunks, black olives, tomatoes and

written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located and more than three months have elapsed since such recordation. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date
shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (619) 590-1221 or visit this Internet Web site www. rppsales.com using the file number assigned to this case 2012-02502. 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. THIS FIRM IS ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT. ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE. Date: 10/24/2012.

La Jolla is home, and like all homes, it needs maintenance and TLC. Mere tax dollars aren’t enough. Together, we can pool our resources to keep La Jolla the jewel that it is. The La Jolla Community Foundation (LJCF) was created to enrich the environmental, social and cultural experience of La Jolla. So far, we have funded the fire pits along the Shores, commissioned world-class murals around town, repaired the “Teardrop” entrance on La Jolla Parkway, created educational coastal signage, and are now developing a plan to maintain the Village on an ongoing basis. Membership is open to all La Jollans who care. Join the LJCF and have a voice in selecting annual grant recipients – making a difference here, at home, where you live. Please join us. Annual local projects will receive 75% of your contribution and the other remaining 25% will go into a permanent endowment.

REBA has free maps of La Jolla’s microneighborhoods FROM REBA REPORTS
La Jolla, like London, has hidden micro-neighborhoods. But London gives visitors a chance because they post signs. Not here! You just have to know where Upper Hermosa changes to Lower Hermosa, which part of Country Club doesn’t touch the golf course, and where to find Soledad South, the Old Muirlands, Bird Rock, La Jolla Mesa. Where did these designations come from? According to REBA, a group of Real Estate agents laid them out decades ago in an effort to bring organization to showing property here. Beach-Barber Tract, La Jolla Shores Heights, Hidden Valley, the Village — once you get the hang of it, it all makes sense. Locals know their neighborhoods, and so do REBA agents. REBA has a free, fold-up map of La Jolla and surrounding areas, printed in a large, readable type. The maps are available from Kathy Steever at the REBA offices, 908 Kline St. Visitors find them particularly useful, since La Jolla is not laid out on a Midwestern-style grid.
