Bird Rock may get a farmers market BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer Negotiations are in the works for a new farmers market serving Bird Rock that would be held Friday evenings starting this spring if it all of the details, including the necessary community approvals, are resolved. Some Bird Rock Elementary School parents reportedly are forming a new nonprofit group to bring a farmers market to the community to raise money for their elementary school. “We’re negotiating right now and we’ve pretty much

settled on a site, Mira Monte just off La Jolla Boulevard in front of La Jolla Methodist Church,” said Catt Fields White, operator of SD Weekly Markets, which has three existing San Diego farmers markets in Normal Heights, North Park and Little Italy. Fields White said she wants to contract with the new Bird Rock nonprofit group to set up, market and manage their market. School representatives and Joe Parker, who heads the Bird Rock Community Council (which is not involved in the negotiations),

The proposed location of a new farmers market is in front of La Jolla Methodist Church. DAVE SCHWAB would not comment, saying any response is premature. The proposal would have to go through community review before the La Jolla Traffic & Transportation (T&T) Board and La Jolla

Community Planning Association (LJCPA). “We are thinking of starting in April,” Fields White added. “But we haven’t been through the permit process yet. That would be

He was interviewed on stage by Phyllis Pfeiffer, publisher of the La Jolla Light. Ron told the audience that he wrote the book as his father’s 100th birthdate approached, with the hope of discovering the “10 percent of my dad’s isolated core that he closely guarded, and that

Fields White said she doesn’t see a conflict arising between the two.

BY PHIL DAILEY Staff Writer Before Anthony Paolucci teed off at the Farmers Insurance Open last week he described his first PGA Tour event as a win-win situation. After making the cut and finishing the tournament with a 3-under par — tied for 29th —there’s no doubt that he was right about his assessment. Paolucci, who is a senior at La Jolla Country Day and a Rancho Santa Fe resident, made waves all tournament long Anthony as he showed just Paolucci how talented he is and just how bright his future might be. He finished the event ahead of golf’s No. 3-ranked player, Tiger Woods, who ended the tournament at 1-under par. Not to mention the 70-plus professionals who failed to make the cut.

Do you want to get involved in the future ofthe parks and beaches in La Jolla? The La Jolla Town Council’s Parks and Beaches Committee is seeking a new chair to replace Michele Addington who is leaving the group. Committee member Patrick Ahern has agreed to serve as interim chair until a replacement is found. The committee is in the process of separating from the Town Council and becoming its own independent entity in order to continue to provide oversight and improvement to the city for La Jolla’s shoreline parks excluding those in La Jolla Shores. “This is an evolving role, open to new directions,” said Joe LaCava, president of La Jolla Community Planning Association which makes recommendations to the city on land use. “This is an exciting opportunity to help get this group off on the right foot.”

avid and Megan Heine, owners of the Brockton Villa, donated 50 percent of all breakfast proceeds between 8 and 11 a.m. on Jan. 27 to the Muirlands Middle School Foundation. The foundation has funded such things as new computers and technology, a portion of the nurse’s and librarian’s salary, class sets of text books, field trips, after-school clubs, maintainance of student lockers, campus beautification, special events and classroom supplies.

Seal debate turns to permits for information tables

the battle to have the rope barrier that now goes up on Dec. 15 and comes down on May 15 during the seals’ pupping season extended year-round. Randy Hawley, whose interim post as the ranger at Children’s Pool ended Jan. 31, said, “The process is the same as is instituted at other locations within the city,” said outgoing senior ranger. The hope is to get some control on the number and placement of tables and the limitations of signage.” The permits took effect Dec. 1 and new signs giving a clearer message of the city’s policy at the pool have also been installed. They state the beach is open

code talking about nonprofits. We don’t need a permit. We have a mission to protect the seals. Vendors, they just sell stuff. It’s a privatepocket situation.” David Pierce, director of the San Diego Council of Divers, which operates one of two permitted tables, said last week, “Our group is following the laws and regulations the city has handed down to us. Some organizations (seal groups) feel they’re above the law.” Pease, an animal rights advocate who has been fighting in the courts for years to protect seals at the pool, is working with those who oppose the permitting process. He’s also leading

the two spots on the walkway on Coast Boulevard overlooking the beach. The choice was made by lottery, with those dubbed “pro-beach access” getting both spots. Still, a group called “Seal Watch” continues to staff tables despite not receiving a permit. Dorota Valli has been staffing the table for the Animal Protection and Rescue League, since 2004. She claims her group’s nonprofit status makes all the difference when it comes to the need for permitting. “Permitting is usually done to vendors,” she said. “We are a charitable, nonprofit organization. There’s nothing in the municipal

for public use and provide information on ways to view the seals without disturbing them. Kent Heinrich represents Friends of Children’s Pool, the other pro-beach access group that received a permit. He told La Jolla Town Council’s Parks and Beaches Committee at their January meeting police are currently warning pro-seal advocates about operating a table without a permit, but aren’t citing them. “We wanted the city to regulate that sidewalk, get it under control,” Heinrich said. “We pay $50 a month to get a permitted display. They (seal groups) are encroaching upon reserved, permitted space.” Heinrich is claiming the city’s failure to enforce its regulations will have unwanted consequences down the road. “If word gets out about unpermitted vendors down on that sidewalk, it will open the flood gates and you’ll have hot dog stands there,” he argued. “We really don’t want to have that in our public park.”

before Artefill

BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer The two sides in the ongoing debate over La Jolla’s seals now are squabbling over implementation of new city regulations requiring those with “free speech” tables at the Children’s Pool to get permits. “Police are currently threatening to arrest a La Jolla seal advocate and confiscate her educational table at the Children’s Pool due to an unenforceable/unconstitutional new regulation put in place by Park & Rec without (City) Council oversight to limit free speech,” attorney Bryan Pease wrote in an e-mail. The city says it’s not taking sides by requiring permits for the tables, which present literature and souvenirs about the seals and Children’s Pool. While the groups have two basic positions —that the seals should be fully protected by closing the beach or that full beach access should be allowed for people— the city decided that permits would be needed and held a lottery to determine who would get

Event to showcase ‘orphan’ cars, handcrafted vehicles BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer A new home has been found for vehicle “orphans”: the annual Orphan Cars and Handcrafted Vehicles Meet being held Feb. 13 in the 7900 block of Girard Ave. in La Jolla. “The word orphan is not a derogatory, but an endearing term,” said vintage car enthusiast and La Jollan Howard Singer, who has been involved in organizing the event. “It just refers to cars that are not being made anymore.” Vehicles taking part in the exhibition are to be in place the day of the meet no later than 8:30 a.m. The list of high-profile car “orphans” is long and includes such well-known makes as Alfa

This 1962 Roustabout will be seen in the ‘orphan’ car show on Girard Avenue. COURTESY Romeo, Amphicar, Austin Healy, Corvair, Delorean, DeSoto, Hudson, LaSalle, Messerschmitt, Packard, Peugeot, Nash, Studebaker and Yugo, to name just a few.

Singer noted that in 2010 an all-time record was set for the number of “orphan” births relating to automotive brands no longer produced, as Hummer, Mercury, Pontiac, Saab and Saturn are all now a part of ancient automotive history. The meet will also welcome all handcrafted vehicles and replica cars such as Bradley, Bugatti, Cheetah, Cobra, Duchess, Duke, Eagle, Fiero conversions, La Bala, La Dawri, La Forza, Lotus 7, Marauder, Marlene, Manx SR, Sebring, 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Sterling and others. A rain date has been selected for the following Sunday, Feb. 20. Those interested in displaying a vehicle at the Orphan Cars and Vehicles Meet should e-mail orphanandhandcrafted@gmail.com.

The study looked at more than 34,000 non-dieting, middle-aged women over a 13-year period and found that at least an hour of moderate daily activity is required to keep non-dieting, non-overweight women at a healthy weight. These findings back up a 2002 Institute of Medicine report that also recommended that adults and children get at least 60 minutes of moderate exercise daily . Adults with physical limitations and/or health concerns are strongly urged to work with a physical therapist to get their bodies moving. The therapists at Ability Rehab specialize in evaluating and treating orthopedic, gait, neurologic and balance problems. If you are experiencing difficulties in any of the above, achieving the recommended daily activity is going to be dif ficult. Whether you are facing a specific problem or just want to increase your activity and health i n a safe, educational environment, we can help. Our therapists perform a thorough evaluation followed by expert rehab and training on the specific needs of each individual. P.S. Gaining weight with age may have less to do with a slowing metabolism than the natural tendency to become more sedentary .

Princess Street access hearing set The hearing regarding the preservation of the Princess Street public beach access will be held Feb. 10 at the Chula Vista Council Chambers, 276 4th Ave. in Chula Vista. Those requesting to speak should arrive by 9 a.m. “This is an issue of tremendous interest and concern for our community,” wrote Joe Dicks, chairman of the La Jolla Shores Associaton, in an e-mail to community members. “I hope that you will be present to make your voice heard.” Dicks added any community member or group who would like to submit a letter regarding the Princess Street public beach access issue needs to submit it by noon on Feb. 4 for inclusion in the addendum to the packets for coastal commissioners. Those should be sent to: California Coastal Commission San Diego Area, 7575 Metropolitan Drive, Suite 103, San Diego, CA 92108-4421. “The Coastal Commission has a good reputation for actually reading the letters it receives regarding matters upon which they intend to vote, so please do not consider this an exercise in futility,” Dicks noted.“If we want to be heard as a community, we need to speak up.”

Survey:To move or not to move valet spots? BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer Instead of agreeing to move three valet parking spaces east on Prospect Street, La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation Board wants to survey residents and merchants to see what they think. The advisory group on Jan. 20 had given unofficial approval to move the spots from George’s California Modern at 1250 Prospect St. to service Crabcatcher and Eddie V’s on a trial basis. They didn’t have enough members present for a formal vote and reconsidered the issue on Jan. 27, when they voted 5-1 to conduct the survey. Eddie V’s is set to open this summer at 1298 Prospect St. in space formerly occupied by the Chart House. Restaurateur George Hauer came to the Jan. 27 meeting to voice his view that, though he’s dubious of the need for splitting valet parking, he was willing not to oppose doing it

— on a trial basis — as long the change would not become permanent if it didn’t work out. Hauer praised the board members for making a thoughtful decision. “They’re in a difficult position,” he said Friday. “People on these committees are volunteers trying to do the best for the community, and there are going to be a vocal number of people who disagree with their decisions. I think they’re being really careful to include a cen-

sus. I think that’s responsible and will keep the criticism down.” T&T chairman Todd Lesser was presented at the meeting with a petition signed by 50 people who didn’t want to see the valet service for the Village’s 10 restaurants and numerous retail shops changed. Lesser noted the Crabcatcher’s owners approached the committee about their a desire to have valet closer to their point of access.

“There are 12 (valet) spaces, they want three,” he said, adding the city of San Diego “is willing to try this on a temporary basis. But they wanted us to get input from community members and merchants.” Lessser said he’s received complaints from people concerned about possible traffic congestion that could be caused by moving the spots. “I think it’s important to find out what the merchants want, throw out some ideas, some options, and let them vote on it,” he said. “I want to see what the merchants think before we vote.” At the Jan. 27 meeting, Village landlord Lincoln Foster said he hadn’t been aware of the proposed valet change and only heard about the public meeting on it at the last minute. Michael Harth, Sunset Parking Service president, said at the meeting he believes having all 12 valet parking spaces consolidated in one area is best. “We had two zones we

combined into one and the volume started going up and it was more efficient,” he said. Though he would be willing to go along with shifting valet service on a trial basis, Hauer noted, “It’s going to be very difficult having two valet zones operated by two different operators. It’s going to make an already difficult situationmore complicated.” Hauer said La Jolla’s valet zone parks 225 cars a day. “Valet is a parking extender absent any community parking facility,” he said, adding that valet parking has no time limitations, which is accommodating for visitors and allows them ample time to eat, stroll or shop. No further details on the community survey were discussed by the transportation board, which pointed out it’s up to the applicants who want to shift valet spaces to work out the language and details of an appropriate valet survey.

For anyone who has followed the short career of Paolucci, it may not have been that big of a surprise how well he played. After all, he’s the No. 1-ranked junior golfer in the country and has committed to play at USC in the fall. What might be most impressive about Paolucci’s four rounds was just how consistent he was. He carded a 70 on the South Course during the first day a 71 on the North Course on day two. During the weekend, he carded back-to-back 72s on the South Course. From the outside, the 18-year-old looked as though he had nerves of steel and was going about his game as though nobody was watching. Inside, however, he said it was much different. “I was really nervous,” Paolucci said. “My legs where shaking the first couple holes.” By Friday afternoon, he knew he was likely in contention to make the cut. “I just knew if I just kept playing solid I would have a really good chance of making it,” he said. Paolucci birdied No. 18 just to make sure. For Anthony’s father, Mike, his expectations were a bit mixed heading into the event. “Playing in your first Tour event and making the cut, it’s just unrealistic to think that would happen, particularly if you’re in high school,” he said. “But on the

The school is hosting an e-waste collection day, where La Jolla residents can drop off their unwanted electronic goods. Acceptable donations include cameras, scanners, televisions, cell phones, and computers. Appliances and batteries are excluded. La Jolla High PTA is sponsoring the event, along with ASB, LJHS Interact and several environmental advocacy clubs. Each pound of electronics will be sold to benefit the PTA. In 2010, two 18-wheel trucks full of used electronics were collected. In February, La Jolla High seeks to collect even more. Jane Wheeler, member of the LJHS e-waste committee, mentioned some of the more unusual donations that pop up. Some people, she said, “clear out an entire garage full of old electronics. We also get some giant, bulky TVs that I’m sure have been replaced by flatscreens.”

FROM REAGAN, A1 this is what I want to be: a real hero. He worked on this all his life.” He said he realized that his dad, who was nearsighted, small for his age, and (due to the family’s many relocations) always the new kid on the block and chased by bullies, admired the local football players and high school leaders and strove to be like them. He joked that his father “had a great capacity for denial,” which probably came from disappointing and unresolved experiences with his father, Jack, who was a heavy drinker, though “not an alcoholic,” according to Ron. Those tough early years likely led to Reagan’s solitary core. “Dad was content on his own, comfortable with himself. He didn’t need a lot of friends,” Ron said. “The great thing about my Dad, was that what you saw is what you got. He was truly a man without cynicism, without guile. He meant the best all the time. His sincere character was key to his popularity; people could see his fundamental decency.” Ron addressed the critics, among them stepbrother, Michael, who said the book was written for personal gain and implies President Reagan had Alzheimer’s disease while in office. Ron denied the claims, defying critics to find any passages that said such.

About Ron Reagan ■ Born Ronald Prescott Reagan on May 20,1958,in Los Angeles ■ Long-time resident of Seattle where he resides with his wife of 31 years,Doria (née Palmieri),a clinical psychologist ■ Political broadcaster for MSNBC,CNN,20/20, Air America Radio ■ Activist for stem cell research since 2004 Phyllis Pfeiffer, publisher of the La Jolla Light, interviews Ron Reagan on stage at the Neurosciences Institute Jan. 26. CAROL SONSTEIN

(Reagan died from Alzheimer’s disease at age 93. He left office in 1989 and in a letter to the American people in 1994 revealed the diagnosis received that year.) When asked what his mother Nancy (now age 90 and “doing very well,”) thought of the book, Ron said, “She appears to like it. She told me, ‘I read it. I loved it. It made me cry and I’m very proud of you.’ ” Through his humorous reminisces (like the time he beat a visibly shaken father in a backyard swimming contest, and the time

he left a disagreement with his dad’s nostrils flaring and pajamas flapping down the hall, fists clenched) Ron acknowledged that the pair rarely saw eye to eye on issues — especially when young Ron declared himself an atheist at age 12, left home at age 18, and dropped out of Yale University in 1976 after one semester to become a ballet dancer with the Joffrey Ballet’s second company. But despite his liberal views, being the son of a conservative icon never dampened his love and admiration for his father.

■ Contributing writer to ‘Esquire,’ ‘Newsweek’ ‘The New Yorker’ and ‘Playboy’ Ron said there were many times (the assassination attempt in 1981 and the endless meetings with bureaucrats and politicos who Ron termed “inside people” for their pallid complexions, rumpled suits and somber demeanors) when his heart ached for this father (an outside person who loved sports, swimming and sunshine). Ron’s reply was swift and pointed when asked if there was any similarity between Barack Obama and his father. “Both are very good speakers,” he said. “Both show a willingness

to compromise. But my dad was rhetorically straight and ahead with where he’s going. He wouldn’t withdraw from discussion. If he had to make 20 percent compromise, later he’d say that he got 80 percent of what he wanted, and that was pretty good. “You’ve got to use the bully pulpit to get what you want. If you’ve got the bully pulpit, use it.” Editor’s Note: Ronald Wilson Reagan was born the second son of John Edward (Jack) and Nelle Wilson Reagan on Feb. 6, 1911, in Tampico, Ill.

FROM MARKET, A1

An area on Mira Monte in front of La Jolla Methodist Church, off La Jolla Boulevard, is the proposed site for a farmers market on Friday evenings. DAVE SCHWAB

UCSD’s Rady School partners with Swedish technology group The Rady School of Management at UCSD recently announced a partnership with accelerat.us, the Swedish organization created to accelerate technology transfer from universities and to help companies enter the U.S. market. The Rady-accelerat.us partnership will focus on San Diego’s leading industries: wireless technology, life sciences, clean tech and defense — providing leadership opportunities for Rady MBAs and potentially creating new jobs in the region. Technology transfer is a signature component of the Rady MBA. The “Innovation Fellows Program” will allow students to work with a particular technology or company; providing market

analysis, commercialization plans and strategies for entry into the U.S. market. In addition to providing a valuable learning experience, there is also a possibility that they can continue working for the company once it is launched in the United States. The partnership with accelerat.us joins several other programs at the Rady School that help bring innovation to the marketplace. The school’s capstone course, Lab to Market, allows students to launch ideas into viable businesses; a partnership with an incubator, EvoNexus provides hands-on experience, and the Rady Venture Fund challenges students to evaluate and invest in promising new companies.

“There wouldn’t be any competition between a Sunday market in La Jolla and a Friday market in Bird Rock,” she said. “I have markets near one another on Adams Avenue and in North Park — they’re very different communities — and they both do well.” Sherry Berman Ahern, who spearheaded establishment of the Open Aire Market, said, “Our market brings in thousands of people to our village, benefiting local businesses, while

100 percent of the proceeds fund needed programs for children. Everyone wants to help find new and innovative ways to assist the La Jolla schools.” Berman Ahern said that was the idea behind her founding the La Jolla Art & Wine Festival two years ago. “It began in this fashionand now generates funds for our local public elementary schools, thanks to community members and parents from all schools working together,” she said. Berman Ahern said she

encourages La Jolla schools, parents and community members “to look for additional revenue-generating possibilities that are feasible, sustainable, cost-effective and do not negatively impact existing activities in the area.” Fields White said she was originally approached by Bird Rock residents a couple of years ago about establishing a new farmers market in their area, but a suitable location could not be found at that time. She added it’s not a simple task.

“There are a lot of regulatory agencies involved and a lot of self-employed entrepreneurs with a lot of different personalities in one block when you set up a farmers market,” she said. “There’s a lot of moving pieces there.” Fields White said the goal of all her markets is to “create a healthy local offering of food.” Concerning Bird Rock, Fields White added, “We have high hopes it can be a nice addition to Bird Rock. Hopefully, it works out.”

“City National covers all our needs.” Our ranch acts as the focal point for our whole family. We all enjoy the time we spend there. It’s time we cherish. We met with City National, and liked the way they approached investing. We decided to move over everything on a trial basis – and we never looked back. City National banks Michael’s law ﬁrm and our farms, and they bank us personally. It’s nice to have everything in one place. City National is The way up® for our family.

Q. Beverly: What does it mean when a light comes on the dash that says â&#x20AC;&#x153;maintenance requiredâ&#x20AC;?? I just had the oil changed at a neighborhood gas station so I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know why the light would come on. Do you think they broke something?

A. Dave: They forgot to reset your required maintenance light. Look in your ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manual and it will walk you through the process or take it back to the garage and ask them to reset it. Q. Dave: I have a question about the wipers on my car. Since we finally got some rain I found out that the wipers were stuck to my windshield and when I turned them on they ripped the rubber off on the right side. I went to a parts house to get a replacement sine I felt the dealer would be too expensive. What I found out was I had too many choices! The parts person showed me refills, complete heads and arms, heads and refills all in one â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the prices were all over the board. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to look stupid so I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy anything. What would you suggest? I hope you can answer this question before the next rainstorm. A. Dave: Just remember there is no such thing as a stupid question when it comes to your car. You could use any of the suggestions from the parts person, but the best is just replacing the rubber insert (cost savings). You might be pleasantly surprised to find the dealer is very competitive when it comes to maintenance items. Call your dealer and compare the price for refills. As far as the wipers sticking to the windshield, you need to lubricate the blades occasionally and pull them away from the glass gently so they will not rip in the future.

Q. Gail: I had the weirdest thing happen to me the other day. I drive a Toyota Corolla with only 87,123 miles on it. As I was driving to work I started to hear a screeching sound coming from my speedometer and all of a sudden the speedometer needle started to spin like a clock on steroids. Then, it snapped off and landed in the bottom of the instrumentation pod. The noise continued and to date it still screams at me once I get over 10 miles-perhour. I am a starving student and was wondering if I should fix it and what would it cost? I was also wondering what caused it to do what it did. I hope your answer will fit my pocketbook! A. Dave: First off, the problem is due to lubrication, or lack there of. As far as the cost, it could be pretty expensive since you may have to replace the speedometer head or the complete speedometer housing. You will need to take it to a shop. You do have a choice â&#x20AC;&#x201D; there are speedometer shops and independent general repair shops, or the dealer. Before you go to the dealer remember that Toyota never made parts to fix your problem â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they will want to replace the unit. My personal choice would be a wrecking yard. Once you find the correct part take it to a speedometer shop and have it lubed really well before installation and that should take care of the problem. Buying the part from a wrecking yard should fit your pocketbook! Q. Larry: I am thinking of buying a used Pontiac Solstice but I was wondering, where would I put the front license plate? If you put it in the grille, wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that affect cooling? All the ones I have seen have no front plate. A. Dave: I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seen one with a front plate even though I have seen the bracket and it is pretty big and ugly. I would recommend asking your local dealer. They know exactly where it should be mounted.

OBITUARIES

Darlene R. Russell Oct. 31, 1934 - Jan. 2, 2011 Darlene was born in Tucson, Arizona, to James and Ruth Denton on October 31, 1934. In 1947, she and her family moved to California. She attended La Jolla High School where she met Donald Russell and they became high school sweethearts. She went to the University of Arizona and after graduating, she and Don were wed in August of 1957. The Denton family quickly became key ďŹ gures in the PaciďŹ c Beach real estate scene. When James passed away it was up to Dar and Don to run the family business. In her spare time she learned needlework and won several awards while also working and teaching others at the needlepoint shop in La Jolla. She supported the arts with her husband Don, and were frequent visitors at the La Jolla Fine Art Museum, the UCSD Theatre, and the Old Globe. She was an avid Padre fan for over 40 years, and enjoyed going to the games. She played tennis, loved working out every day, and enjoyed the company of her dogs and her long-time beach friends. A long time resident of La Jolla, Darlene liked to serve her community. In 1991, she became a valued member of the Social Service League of La Jolla, of which she served a term as treasurer.

Darlene leaves behind Don, her husband of 53 years, and her two grown children, Jake Russell and Kathy Farr, who manage the family real estate and reside in San Diego.

Torrey Pines Road project deserves our attention OUR VIEW Spending a couple of hours in a chilly room listening to city officials and consultants may not seem the best way to spend a morning, afternoon or evening. But it’s often the best way to get first-hand information on what’s going on in town. In the past couple of weeks, there have been sessions to talk about Torrey Pines Road improvements, valet parking in the Village, the school budget situation and, after our press time, a Carl DeMaio-hosted session on the

city budget predicament. While many who attended these meetings had vested interests in them, the issues in some way, shape or form affect all of us. So it’s critical that we pay attention to them. Perhaps the one where we may have the most influence is what happens to Torrey Pines Road. Many of those who were at the Jan. 19 meeting are particularly concerned about what happens there because their homes are near the main drag into La Jolla — or they were interested in the broader issue of pedestrian and bicycle safety. (We’re with

them on that one and would like to see more discussion on safety features as well as what can be done to enhance the aesthetics.) But even if you don’t live on either side of the road or walk or ride there regularly, we should care about what’s planned. How the changes play out will alter the appearance of the gateway to our community for years to come and they stand to affect traffic flow as well. So there’s a lot at stake. This project has been talked about for years and it appears there’s actually funding available to get it started in the 2012

budget cycle. Although not everyone was happy with what they heard on Jan. 19 when the conceptual plan was presented, we all get another chance to have a say when the Traffic & Transportation (T&T) Board meets on Feb. 24. Board chairman Todd Lesser has promised to listen to everyone and said he’ll hold additional meetings if they can’t get it all done that day. The process from here on out will be that the traffic board will come up with recommendations after it hears from community members and forward them to the La

Local woman searches for lost heirloom An 88-year-old La Jolla woman is in search of a family heirloom, a 2-carat diamond ring that she lost somewhere in La Jolla this week. A family friend, who recently found and returned missing keys to anther La Jolla resident, said the woman had been to Vons and several other shops before getting on the 30 bus to return home. The ring apparently slipped off her finger along the way. If anyone finds such a ring, please contact editor@lajollalight.com.

Prioritizing project: Traffic calming, safety YOUR VIEW BY SHERRI NOORAVI La Jolla resident After years of planning, the Torrey Pines Road Corridor (TPR) project was kicked off on Jan. 19 with a meeting hosted by Councilmember Sherri Lightner. Presenting were City Engineer Julio Fuentes and the engineers who helped develop a concept design based on earlier plans created by community members and approved by the City Council in 2008. Overall, it is a promising design, created for the purpose of beautifying our community, stabilizing bluffs, and bringing pedestrian and bicyclist safety to this main thoroughfare where San Diegans and visitors work and play. Upon completion in the years to come, TPR will be transformed from a rundown highway that runs through a residential community to a beautiful coastal road. Many people at the meeting noticed that one major element seemed to be missing from the design: traffic calming. Andy Hamilton, President of Walk San Diego, an organization that helps bring pedestrian safety to San Diego neighborhoods, noted that several components should be included in the design such as V-Calms to indicate motorists’ speed and guard rails attached to the south side sidewalks for pedestrian safety. Following are some important facts and statistics (from the Walk San Diego website) regarding safety that we need to consider as we voice our thoughts during this development phase starting with the Feb 24 Traffic & Transportation meeting: • From 1994 to 2003, pedestrian injuries and fatalities in the San Diego region increased 9.2 percent relative to the number of walkers. • You are 36 times more likely to be killed walking than driving a car. • For every pedestrian killed by a car, at least 14 more are injured. • Each year more than 6,000 pedestrians are killed and 90,000 are injured.

Olive store opens in the Village BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer We Olive, a new hybrid olive oil retail store and wine bar, opened the retail portion of its new business last Sunday. “We’re knocking out the back wall and building a small patio,” said Chris Swain, manager of the new shop. Swain said there are several We Olives elsewhere in California, the closest in Costa Mesa. All of them are retail. He said only the retail portion of La Jolla’s We Olive is now open. The wine portion is expected to open in May. “We’re the first prototype store for olive oil retail and a wine bar,” he said. “The first half of the store is retail, then midway through is a wine bar where you can walk right out onto our patio.” We Olive’s space previously was a jewelry store, said Swain. There is another noteworthy aspect about the new olive oil retail store. “Everything in the store

that we sell, mustard or tapanade or olive oil, is available for tasting at no charge,” Swain said. “People can come in our store and walk around and taste all of our products.” The notion of the hybrid store, said Swain, grew out of the olive oil "experience.” “Good wine, food and olive oil is shared,” he said. We Olive sells certified olive oils, bath and body products, decorative items and serving utensils. When the wine bar portion opens there will be outdoor dining with ocean views. Store hours will be 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. We Olive, said Swain, showcases the manifold benefits of olive oil. “This will give people the opportunity to see how multi-faceted, how great it can be for cooking and a variety of uses,” he said.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Everett Stunz,sales manager have longevity There’s a good reason why sales manager Cori Faulkner has worked for more than 20 years at Everett Stunz in La Jolla: It’s like family. “I know the customers — we have that personal relationship,” she said. “Even the people I work with are like family. I can’t imagine working anywhere else.” In business for 45 years in the jewel, the fine linens and luxury bedding store at 7624 Girard Ave. has been run by only three families, including Phil and Nicki Coller the past five years. The shop carries linens imported from around the world of the highest quality and latest designs. It is San Diego’s only supplier of DUX Beds, as well as having an exclusive line of Everett Stunz adjustable and flat beds that can be custom made to order. Interior designers provide design and manufacture service to personal specifications for homes or yachts. Like continental drift, the linen boutique has been “inching” its way down Girard. “We joke that every 20 years we move two doors down,” said Faulker, noting the store started out four doors down from its present location with only one bed on its showroom floor and handled mostly fun loungewear and gifts. It’s since morphed into one of San Diego's premier linen and bed stores. “We became a Dux store about 25 years ago,” said Faulkner. “Then we started bringing in more linens and got away from the gifts and tabletops because we had Panache here.” The store now has a big open space allowing it to

Cori Faulkner shows off Everett Stunz linens. DAVE SCHWAB compartmentalize, having lots of neat spaces to outfit, like its fun lingerie closet. Said Faulker: “It allows us to have various areas throughout the store, like our little sleep shop with our down comforters, pillows and blankets. We have our towels beautifully merchandised with bath accessories.” For Faulkner, it’s easy to detail what makes Everett Stunz unique. “We’re a one-stop shop. You can find anything here. If you purchase a bed from us, you can pretty much outfit it from floor to top. We also do custom design if somebody has a boat or an RV or a heartshaped or round bed.” Call Everett Stunz at (858) 459-3305 or go to www.everettstunz.com.

SPORTS

Bishop's water polo in search of title BY PHIL DAILEY Staff Writer The Bishop's School girls water polo team is used to success, but this year the team wants to cap the season as champions. For the past 13 seasons, the Knights (13-2 overall, 3-0 Western League) have advanced to the CIF title game, but in recent years, they have fallen short of winning the top prize. Heading into the season, head coach Doug Peabody wasn't sure how good his team would be, after all, he had five seniors graduate and no players on his current roster had been a part of a CIF championship. Peabody has been the only coach the program has know, and his resume speaks for itself — in 13 seasons, the team has eight CIF titles and nine Western League championships. This year's squad is poised to add to that total. "This year is definitely to bring an end to the Coronado dynasty, to get another championship back to Bishop's," junior Erin Pannek said. And there's good reason to think that way. Last month, the team won the TYR Cup in Orange County and so far in Western League play, are a perfect 3-0. "We lost basically all of our starters last year so we kinda all knew it was

our time to step up," senior Kristen Casey said. "We all work very well together. This year everyone all gets along." Peabody said there are isn't one player on the team that makes them great, rather, it's how each player executes the system that he has implemented. On Monday, that system was in place against Fallbrook and Granite Hills, two easy victories for the Knights as they got under way in the San Diego Open. "When our system goes right, you can see the ball go easily into the net," Peabody said, "but when our system is not being efficiently run and we're moving the ball around poorly we're giving it to the other team." The Knights will continue play in the San Diego Open on Friday and Saturday, hosting the event at their own pool. The tournament, according to Peabody, isn't as tough of some of the others the team has played this year, but it provides them an opportunity to stay at home and gear up for the rest of league play. "If they can play their best water polo that they've ever played, then they will be successful and lead us to a league title," Peabody said. Which will put them in a great spot to capture another CIF title.

Watson takes Farmers Open BY PHIL DAILEY Staff Writer The 2011 edition of the Farmers Insurance Open proved to be a showdown between two lefties — San Diego product Phil Mickleson and one of the biggest hitters on the Tour in Bubba Watson. In the end, it was the younger Watson who outdueled Mickleson by one stroke to finish the tournament at 16-under. Dustin Johnson and Jhonattan Vegas both finished tied for third with 13-unders. "What it means to me is that I played good," Watson said. "I worked this winter to work on my mind to be more focused. To be worried about what I'm doing and not what everybody else is doing. "Phil was playing great behind us, he added, "you know, I was just focused on what I had to do. Local high schooler Anthony Paolucci finished the tournament with a 3-under par, good for an 11-way tie and a 29th-place finish. Had it not been for his amateur status, the La Jolla Country Day senior would have banked a $33,814 check. ■ More on Paolucci, A1

UCSD earns top spot in preseason poll The UC San Diego baseball team, after breaking a school record with 54 wins and advancing to the national championship game in 2010, unanimously earned the No. 1 spot in the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA) West Region Preseason Poll released Thursday. In addition, seven Tritons were named to the NCBWA's Preseason All-West Region First Team. The preseason accolades are rolling in on a regular basis. Last week, UCSD was the unanimous choice of California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) coaches to repeat as the league's regular season and tournament champion. In December, the Tritons were featured at No. 2 nationally in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper's Preseason Poll and No. 1 in the College Baseball Lineup Preseason Top 30 Poll. Later today, NCBWA officials will announce the national top 25 as well as the preseason All-America teams. Coming in at No. 2 in the NCBWA West Region Top 10 is Chico State, a team that finished 35-20 last season. Featured in the third spot is Cal State Dominguez Hills, a program that finished second in the California Collegiate Athletic Association in 2010 with a 27-

13 conference mark. The Sea Warriors of Hawai'i Pacific, after losing to UCSD in the West Region title game last season, return in 2011 to take the fourth position in the NCBWA preseason rankings. Cal State San Bernardino rounds out the top five. Of the seven Tritons on the NCBWA Preseason All-West Region First Team, two of them Aaron Bauman and Tim Shibuya — were unanimous selections. Both were All-Americans in 2010, Bauman as an outfielder, Shibuya as a right-handed starting pitcher. Bauman batted .413 to go along with an onbase percentage of .553 and a slugging percentage of .637, while Shibuya racked up a school record 13 wins as the Tritons' staff ace in 2010. Also named to the NCBWA Preseason AllWest Region First Team were utility player Evan Kehoe, starting pitcher Guido Knudson, catcher Kellen Lee, outfielder Kyle Saul and relief pitcher Daniel Simmons. Lee and Saul were tabbed All-Americans last season. Earlier this week, UCSD played the first night game at Triton Ballpark against Point Loma Nazarene comes in an exhibition contest. The preseason finished on Tuesday with a game against San Diego Christian College.

Find Sonia Olivas where an occasion calls for the harp Sonia Marie Olivas is a freelance harpist and music teacher at Harp Enchantment in La Jolla. She graduated from California State University Northridge with a B.A. in music, emphasis on early childhood education and world music. Some of her concert Sonia Olivas credits include the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, Lyceum Theatre, Torrey Pines Christian Church and the La Jolla Library. Olivas has played harp music for some 14 years at more than 500 events weddings, corporate events, funerals, gallery openings, birthdays, senior gatherings and tea parties. She will debut a Latin Harp album this summer. In addition to performing, she teaches at her studio and at Music Central. What brought you to La Jolla? My friends invited me out for lunch on my birthday at a restaurant that overlooked the ocean and Prospect. I was so taken by the view and atmosphere that I came back to La Jolla several times. I knew this was my destination point and moved here from L.A. six months later. What makes this area special to you? I love the cove walks, ocean sunsets, dogfriendly establishments; and the people, galleries, libraries and boutiques. If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? I would love to have live music in every restaurant and café in town, as well as on the sidewalks. I think it would be especially fantastic for the themed establishments to have that genre of music playing within — how special and truly authentic it would be to have music complementing food and décor! Another huge improvement would be to fix the roads. It seems like the roads are getting worse — and not just during the rainy season.

Two museums display the new faces of quilting BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT Contributor For generations, possibly going back thousands of years to the time of the pharaohs, quilting has been a traditional folk art, usually practiced by women, often a record of personal or community history. Today, the adventurous works of a new generation of quilters are more like “soft paintings,” displaying a range of exciting techniques made possible by new technologies. And an art quilt is not something to cover a bed with, but something to proudly display on a wall. Visions, a small but mighty art museum in Liberty Station, is a good place to see what’s happening in the world of contemporary quilting. What started in 1985 as a group of quilters who wanted to elevate the art by mounting a juried exhibition has turned into a celebrated international biennial. In 2007, as Liberty Station became a magnet for local arts organizations, Visions opened a gallery there, achieving museum status in late 2010. One of Visions’ board members is La Jolla resident Gillian Moss. Originally from Ireland, she trained and worked as a jeweler, but decided to try something different after she married.

If you go

‘A Breath Away,’ a quilt made by La Jolla’s Gillian Moss, was shown at Visions Art Museum in 2009. Another of her pieces will be on view in the Critique Group section of the new exhibit opening Feb. 4. MICHAEL C. LANCASTER “I was interested in textiles, but I didn’t really want to follow patterns, so I was pretty much self-taught,” she said. “Then I got involved in the Irish Quilting Society, which is quite a thriving guild, with meetings and workshops and members’ exhibitions.” Moss continued quilt making when the family moved to La Jolla in 2001. She became part of the Seaside Quilters’ Guild, joining Visions in 2007. Her great contribution there has been the critique group she started two years ago. “Most quilters work on their own, at home or in

their own studio, and I thought it would be good to have somewhere we could get feedback,” she said. “The group is an amazing source of stimulation. Critique is too strong a word for it, really. We’re very helpful to each other. I always drive home so full of ideas, I’m delighted I started it!” Since 2002, the Visions biennial has been taking place at Oceanside Museum of Art, and continues to be the most popular of all OMA’s exhibitions. At a recent walkthrough of the show, led by Visions President Charlotte Bird, there were 135 attendees, atten-

tively listening and closely examining each piece. What is a quilt? Beth Smith, executive director of Visions and former director of development at OMA, says the definition these days is very loose. “For the most part it’s still three layers of fabric (top, batting, and backing) but it can really be anything,” she said. “We’re moving beyond the boundary of quilting and into the realm of contemporary fiber art.” The 39 quilts on display at OMA were chosen from more than 600 submissions by a jury of notable artists and curators who were look-

ing for original ideas, mastery of design, and exemplary execution. They include the whole gamut of quilting techniques, from machinestitched, computer-generated designs to very labor-intensive hand stitching. “They’re all narrative,” Bird said. “That is, each quilt tells a personal, mythical, or historical story, though we may not know what it is.” There are quilted photos and solar paintings, strippieced quilts, quilts that are painted over and sanded to produce exquisitely textured surfaces, austere conceptual quilts, and quilts made of canvas, sheer tulle, or silks.

Retired founder of UCSD’s drama, dance department reflects on life in the theater they depend upon. And the way you respond to what they are doing can either support them or destroy them. It’s very easy to destroy. And I found that very stressful. So I was ready to stop. “Besides. I have a lot of other interests. I do a lot of reading. Molli and I have a very full and hectic social life.We have traveled a lot since I retired. I still pay attention to the department and the department is very nice by including me in things. I still have an office. I go to faculty meetings periodically. Molli and I go to a lot of theater in town. And dance.” Wagner was born in the Bronx. He traces his interest in the performing arts to when his two older sisters took him to dancing school as a youngster and later when he would perform in summer camp. His father was a women’s tailor with a loft on 57th Street in Manhattan whose customers included actresses Tallulah Bankhead and Fay Bainter. Through a competitive examination, Wagner was accepted into Stuyvesant High School, an acclaimed, no-tuition public high

school in Manhattan specializing in math and science. Contemplating a possible career in academia, he went on to study philosophy at Earlham College in Richmond, Ind. In his junior year, in 1943, his Army Reserve unit was called up during World War II and he was placed in the Army Specialized Training Program (ASTP). “The Army kept sending me to school,” he recalled wryly, “because they kept giving me the

same test I took for Stuyvesant. It was literally the same test. I was sent to Randolph-Macon College for engineering, Rutgers for premed, and the University of Pennsylvania for medical school, all on that same damn test.” He also performed in Army shows that revitalized his interest in theater; so when the war ended and he was eligible for discharge, he left med school and considered auditioning as a summer stock actor, but was told he didn’t have enough experience. His thoughts then turned to academic theater by way of a master’s degree. An advisor suggested the prestigious women’s college, Smith, in nearby Northampton, Mass., which at the time was accepting a limited number of male veterans, and where the iconic Hallie Flanagan was head of the theater department. She ran 3,000 theaters as part of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s WPA program during The Depression. He earned his master’s from Smith College in 1948. His first job was as supervisor of dramatic

activities at the Jewish Community Center in Springfield, Mass., followed by another year as artistic director of the Springfield Civic Theatre at an annual nine-month season salary of $2,500. In his mid-20s and deciding he needed to make a more substantial living, he went into business with his brother-in-law who owned three shoe stores in New Jersey. “I spent the next five years in the retail business,” he said. “The best part of that, in fact, the only good part was, I would never have met Molli if hadn’t been for that, because I would never have been in a position financially to go skiing in Sun Valley.” When he wasn’t selling shoes and managing the largest of the three stores, Wagner kept fueling his interest in theater by going to Broadway shows and studying at the Actors Workshop in New York City, along with another aspiring actor named Sidney Poitier. “They had filmed ‘Blackboard Jungle’ [Poitier’s breakout film role],

He was serious about his career as a professor of drama that spanned 36 years at four colleges and about his retirement from UCSD 19 years ago. “We don’t loll around in bed. No napping,” he says of his busy retirement lifestyle that he shares with his wife of 54 years, Molli, and which they orchestrate from their canyon-view home in Del Mar.

I loved what I did. But what I did was the most stressful of academic jobs because I taught acting (and acting is one of the most stressful teaching work there is if you’re concerned about the acting students) because actors can’t see what they’re doing. “They can’t see themselves, they can’t hear themselves.

New look, but it’s still the same Comedy Store BY KIRBY BROOKS Contributor When driving down Pearl Street, it’s hard to miss The Comedy Store — or at least it was. The venue has been stripped of its signature ivy vines and now features a fresh coat of black paint. I went to investigate what provoked the makeover to see if the anything changed inside the La Jolla landmark. Opened by Sammy and Mitzi Shore (of the same comedic family as Pauly Shore) as an offshoot of The Comedy Store on Hollywood’s famed site of debauchery, Sunset Strip, the first incarnation of The Comedy Store in San Diego was in nearby Pacific Beach. With the exception of a short stint at a location on Prospect, The Comedy Store has been a Pearl Street mainstay since the venue moved there in 1977. Comedy clubs come and go in San Diego, but The Comedy Store is an institution, and for the past six years comic Mike Vinn has been largely responsible for filling the seats. Vinn start-

ed out working the door and seating, and eventually began honing his standup skills on open mic nights. When I sat down with Vinn, who now runs and manages The Comedy Store, handling everything from promotion to bartending to delivering his own standup routines (catch him Wednesdays, Thursday and Sundays), I had to address the ivy issue immediately. Vinn’s answer, however, was somewhat anticlimactic. “The ivy was overwhelming the building’s ex-

terior so we decided to get rid of it completely and go back to the black exterior of the venue’s early years.” Despite The Comedy Store’s new look, it’s business as usual. Tourists and repeat customers (insider tip: sign up for the mailing list to receive free tickets and hear about upcoming events) continue to flock to the venue Wednesday through Sunday. December is usually the club’s slowest month, but The Comedy Store enjoyed its best December in five years.

joke? It all depends on the joke,” says Vinn about the absence of censorship, adding, “Comedy is a form of free speech. You can’t put creative limits on it. It’s an art form.” There are two show times per weekend night at 8 and 10:30 p.m. Whatever time you come, be sure to catch the two opening acts. You won’t regret it. I never heard of Brandon Christy or Fahim Anwar before seeing them open for headliner Chris D’Ella (irreverent, hilarious) at The Comedy Store, but I have a feeling that will change. When I left the now ivy-less venue it was with cheeks sore from laughing and a slight longing to have been singled out by one of the night’s acts. There’s always next time.

“There were three sold-out shows in December 2010,” Vinn revealed proudly — proving that laughter is a necessary recessionary provision. The Comedy Store staff is comprised of up-and-coming comics hoping to work their way up from manning the door, to working the bar, to standup, to eventually performing at their Mecca: The Comedy Store Sunset. Filing into my seat along with the rest of the Friday night crowd, I could see the playful ribbing between the staff as described by Vinn. Only drinks are served at The Comedy Store, but in place of food is no holds barred comedy. Be forewarned: no topic is taboo. “What’s funnier? A good dirty joke or a good clean

FROM FILMS, B1 at the Clairemont Reading Cinemas 14 theater, 4665 Clairemont Drive, San Diego. Schutz turned her hobby of writing poetr y into a commercial venture by founding Blue Mountain Greeting Cards with her husband Stephen in 1971. She has written 10 books and produced four documentar y films. She said she was inspired to make “Over 90 and Loving It” while watching a 90-year-old band leader and saxophonist perform in New York City. “I was so enthralled with “All of the films him and his spirit,” she said, (reflect) a Jewish so she began seeking out othpoint of view, but er inspirational seniors you don’t have to be throughout the country. SubJewish to enjoy them. jects include folk singer and activist Pete Seeger, 91; and There is something “Granny D” Haddock, a politfor everyone.” ical activist who walked more — Helen Fleming than 3,200 miles to advocate Chair, San Diego Jewish Film Festival for campaign finance reform. She died last March at age 100. “Each person has a different stor y,” said Schutz. “but they have common characteristics,” including keeping a positive attitude, never worrying, not thinking about their age, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following their passion. Simon said she is honored to be in the film. She previously appeared in a documentar y film featuring senior writers. An avid learner, she has audited numerous classes at UCSD. “I’ve been going to school my entire life,” she said.

FROM QUESTIONS, B1 Who inspires you? I’m inspired by family and friends who persevere and come together when times are hard, and praise each other when times are great. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? I would enjoy having my mom, dad, sister, all three grandparents, Aunt Anita and cousin Teresa, Glenn and his mom over for a dinner party. This is more than eight guests, but I think we would all have a fantastic time laughing, storytelling, advising/scolding, crying and then laughing all over again. This would be my gift to the living — dinner with the dearly departed they miss most. What are you reading? I am reading a collection of short stories from around the Latin globe called “Cuentos Españoles,” edited by An-

gel Flores; I’m enjoying traveling through history to all the different Latin countries. The most recent story is “El Techo” by Horacio Quiroga. This story takes place in a province called Misiones, a territory in the tropical jungle of northern Argentina bordering on Brazil and Paraguay. I came to conclusion that there are two themes in the story. The first is obviously about being able to redeem one’s self against all odds. The second is that if you want something enough, you will stop at nothing to achieve that goal. What is your most-prized possession? I would have to say that’s Emily, my Yorkshire terrier, and my harp. What do you do for fun? I like to play tennis, dance, watch various types of movies, attend concerts, festivals, farmers markets, watch sunsets by the ocean,

Opening the San Diego Jewish Film Festival Feb. 10 (also Feb. 13) is ‘Berlin 36,’ an account of German Olympic high jumper Gretel Bergmann. When the United States insists it will boycott the games if Jewish athletes are not included in the Berlin Olympics, Gretel’s family is threatened if she does not compete on the German team. As soon as the Americans are air-bound, however, Hitler hijacks the games to further Nazi propaganda and a secondstringer with secrets of her own replaces Gretel. Raw emotion trumps both sports and politics in this tale of courage and deceit.

‘Protektor’ (Feb. 13 and Feb. 16) is a retro noir film. In pre-war Czechoslovakia, Hana and Emil have an unbalanced relationship – she’s a glamorous film star while he’s a mediocre news personality. Their positions reverse in 1938 when the Nazis invade and her Jewishness is discovered. Stuck hiding at home while Emil parties the night away with celebrities, the rebellious Hana embarks on daring escapades. Emil represents the flawed everyman trapped by the forces of tyranny and propelled into odious wartime compromises.

go to art exhibit tours, take walks in nature with family, friends and Emily, hang out at coffee shops and tr y out new restaurants or cuisines. I also enjoy being an organizer of the Spanish Language and Cultures Active Fun Tennis Club and La Jolla Life meet-up community. In addition to teaching privately, I like to volunteer at the La Jolla Elementary School music program once a week.

In the French comedy ‘He’s My Girl,’ (Feb. 12) homosexual klezmer clarinetist Simon Eshkenazy is harangued by his ailing mother into letting her live with him. Next, his ex-wife shows up with her fiancé and son, who Simon hasn’t seen since infancy. Into this mess enters Naim, a Muslim transvestite, Rose.

‘Who Do You Love?’ closes the festival, at two locations Feb. 20. PolishJewish immigrant Leonard Chess, a dreamer transfixed by blues music, and his brother Phil open a nightclub in the South Side of Chicago and became the force behind the transformation of rhythm and blues into rock and roll.

San Diego Opera gala ushers in the new season with a stirring ‘Turandot’ E sther Burnham was honored for her years of support to the San Diego Opera at a gala for the season opener Puccini’s “Turandot,” Jan. 29 at the US Grant Hotel and The Civic Theatre. Patrons enjoyed cocktails, the performance, and dinner and dancing after the show. The opera tells the story of China’s icy Princess Turandot who has built a wall of riddles around her heart to keep love away. Desired by every man, she wants none. Three impossible riddles are the test to win her love and if you fail, you die. Heads roll until the mysterious Prince Calàf arrives on the scene, determined to marry Turandot and stop the bloodshed. Following in his shadow is his father’s servant girl Liù — who loves him so deeply she dies for his happiness. Show dates Feb. 4 and 6. PHOTOS BY RENAY JOHNSON

Piatti toasts its 20th year with party for Las Patronas BY SUSAN DEMAGGIO Lifestyles Editor s it did in 2001 to mark its 10th anniversary in La Jolla Shores, Piatti Restaurant paid tribute to its patrons by hosting a benefit for the charitable work of Las Patronas, but this time around, the celebration touted 20 years of serving Italian cuisine inspired dishes. Some 325 guests crowded into the popular restaurant last Thursday night, seeming to enjoy the closeness — the mood mimicked a

family reunion. In sum, they raised $18,000 for Las Patronas. General Manager Tom Spano moved easily through evening basking in the compliments of guests offering comments like, “consistently excellent food,” “always fresh,” ‘’been coming here for years” and “tradition.” Spano in turn credited Piatti longtime chef and hardworking crew, its suppliers, and the supportive community for its triumphs. A recipe for restaurant success if ever there was one!

For fun, food and friends it’s a night at Beaumont’s BY WILL PARSON

Beaumont’s chef Scott Cathcart says California Cioppino is among his favorite dishes at the neighborhood eatery. PHOTOS BY WILL PARSON

Contributor alfway between the heart of La Jolla and Pacific Beach lies Beaumont’s Eatery, where a mix of briefcasetypes and burnt-skin surfers whirl around each other like they were stuck in one of the roundabouts lining their Bird Rock neighborhood. Pull up to the bar during happy hour and you’ll find the regulars come to Beaumont’s for different reasons. On a Thursday night I found La Jollan Patrick Breslin, who visits Beaumont’s about once week, chatting about surfing with the bartender and making an acquaintance of a seasoned Bird Rock venture capitalist. While the businessman praised Beaumont’s for the surprisingly large stack of business cards he’s accumulated at the barstool, Breslin pointed out Beaumont’s proclivity for attracting singles who have outgrown the bar scene in Pacific Beach. “When

Local bands, like Stratos, perform Thursday to Saturday nights.

Daily happy hour runs 4-6:30 p.m.

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com, click ‘On The Menu.’ ■ This week: Beaumont’s Cioppino you drive by here on Thursday and Friday nights it’s just packed with women for happy hour.” Breslin also pointed out that Beaumont’s is a great brunch spot on the weekends, with dogs being quite welcome on the patio. “You’ve never seen so many dogs getting fed top-shelf French bread under the table.” Families can also be spotted at Beaumont’s, especially earlier in the evening on the weekends before the place gets crowded and the live music starts playing.

December Enriquez recently visited two nights in a row with her husband Mike and their infant daughter Maisie. While dining they took advantage of Wine Wednesday, when most bottles of wine are half price. “I had the Spaghettini last night, which is my new favorite dish, full of fresh vegetables — spectacular.” Also on the menu you’ll find Slow Braised Short Rib, which is currently the most popular dish. The California Cioppino, Port Braised Dijon Lamb Shank, and Ahi Tuna Tartare also are at the top of the list for chef Scott Cathcart, who has been at Beaumont’s from the start. With a laid-back classiness, there is something for everyone at Beaumont’s — from food and drinks to people and music. A diversity of Bird Rock locals frequent this melting pot, and on occasion, they entertain the outsiders who often overlook this part of town.

FROM WAGNER, B3 but it had not yet been released, and Sidney came to study with my teacher, Paul Mann, who was one of the few acting teachers in New York who had people of color in his classes. “I finally decided the shoe business was not for me, told my brother-in-law I was leaving and he said, ‘What took you so long?’ And that’s when I started my doctoral work … at the University of Utah.” Molli, who was a Pan Am stewardess at the time, lived in San Francisco. “I went to visit her that Christmas and never went back to Utah. They’re still waiting for me. I transferred to Stanford University and that’s why I have a Ph.D. in drama from Stanford (completed in 1962). “We were married in 1956 in the Stanford Chapel and I was offered my first (university) job at Rollins College, a small liberal arts college, in Winter Park, Fla., where after the first year I was appointed head of the theater arts department and where I stayed for nine years while working on my Ph.D. from Stanford.” At Rollins, in addition to acting and teaching, he became a director. He directed

three plays a year, as well as playing the lead in and directing Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” and the musical “My Fair Lady.” From 1965 to 1967, he served as professor of drama at Tulane University in New Orleans where he established the graduate actor training program. In an unprecedented move, he and six other Ph.D.s in the drama department resigned en masse in protest over the administration’s refusal to provide funds for building a performing arts center. “Tulane has never recovered from that,” he said, “at least the theater department hasn’t.” He and his colleagues fanned out to other universities across the country to establish or strengthen other drama departments. Wagner joined Ohio University as a drama professor and director of the graduate and undergraduate actor training programs, in Athens, Ohio “which is like nowhere,” he chuckled. “We went from New Orleans, with the greatest eating and everything, to a place that had two restaurants, both bad.” He remained two years at

The Arthur Wagner Theatre, located on the first floor of UCSD's Galbraith Hall, seats 99 audience members. COURTESY Ohio University before accepting an invitation from one of his former Tulane colleagues to start an MFA program at Temple University in Philadelphia. “After three years at Temple, I was recruited to come to UCSD,” where he served as the founding chair of the drama department from 1972 to 1977, and head of the graduate professional actor training program from 1977 until his retirement in 1991. When he first arrived, he recalled, “There was nothing here in the way of a department. There were two faculty members who had been teaching courses before that, but when I came the department was established with four founding faculty, and I was told by the search committee that maybe the facul-

ty would grow to seven. “When I rotated out of my first five years of chairmanship, we were already 11, and now well over 30.” The “department” is considered one of the top three graduate theater training programs in the country, along with Yale and New York University. It confers MFA (Master of Fine Arts) degrees in acting, design, directing, playwriting, sound design, stage management and dance theater, as well as a Ph.D. in theater in conjunction with UC Irvine. Throughout his career in academic theater, when he could, he returned to the boards as an actor. “One of my favorite roles was as Quentin in ‘After the Fall,’ the Arthur Miller autobiographical play, which I

did in San Diego in 1984, downtown in what was called the Public Theater at that time. I was on stage for two and a half hours. I think it’s the longest role in American theater.” Among actors he has trained during his career, he lists character actress Dana Ivey, whom he taught at Rollins and who was a fivetime Tony nominee; and, while at UCSD, 2004 Tony Award winner Jefferson Mays, Tom Nelis, film actor Don McKay, Jeanne Paulson, who was a leading actress at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and Danny Burstein, a double Tony nominee. He is a passionate supporter and board member of the La Jolla Playhouse, which enjoys a close relationship with UCSD, sharing production staff and providing internships for the theater students. He concedes that directing is probably what he is best known for, “but acting is something that I love.If you ask me what I am as an artist, I’d say, an actor,” he explained. “But it’s a murderous life. “If you’re an actor, you’re always out of work. It’s not

something you can sort of set out and do yourself. You need somebody else. Somebody has to ask you to do something. Somebody has to offer you the opportunity… “So it’s working from one job to the next. That’s the American theater. It’s a very, very difficult row to hoe. Our graduate programs are three years. You could be a lawyer in three years. “We audition 500 students for eight spots in our MFA acting program each year,” he said. “At Yale, they audition 1,000 students for 18 spots. “It’s the same out there in the world, that’s the relationship of actors to work. That’s what I mean when I say ‘murderous,’ you really have to want it to do it. What do they call it? Fire in the belly.” Is it easier for actors today than it was when he was a young man? “No, well, yes. It’s easier from the point of view that now we have so many regional theaters, like the La Jolla Playhouse; whereas, when I was studying as an actor, it was either Broadway or Hollywood. So there are a lot more job opportunities than there used to be.”

Amazing performances heighten the Globe’s ‘Death of a Salesman’ Anyone aware of Arthur Miller’s “Death of a Salesman” knows Diana it’s an intense Saenger experience at the theatre. But many times, the reaction is all in the eye of the beholder. For me, the Globe’s current production is profound and gripping. Performed in the Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre and directed by Pam MacKinnon, there isn’t one moment in this Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play that doesn’t ring true and that’s because each member of the cast does an incredible job. The weary salesman and troubled father, Willy Loman, is brought to life in a tour-de-force performance by Jeffrey DeMunn (“The Shawshank Redemption” and “The Walking Dead”). DeMunn is Willy from the time he opens the door and drops his suitcase on the floor to when he adamantly demands that his son Biff (Lucas Caleb Rooney, Broadway’s “The Country Girl”) leave the house. “Salesman” unfolds through flashbacks into the different stages of the Loman’s lives. It’s during one of those scenes we learn that Biff was a football star with a promising college future until something happened between him and his father that turned Biff into a lazy man and huge disapointment to Willy. Rooney brings a full range of emotions to his character, but really shines in the terse scenes between Biff and his dad, and his brother Hap (Tyler Pierce, “A Street Car Named Desire”) when he ignores the signs of their father’s instability. As they argue and fight, Linda (Robin Moseley, Broadway’s “Pygmalion”) desperately tries to keep her son and

So standing advice: Read labels and choose the brands that specifically state “gluten-free” on the packages. Many mainstream food companies have hopped on the gluten-free bandwagon, including General Mills with assorted cereals and Betty Crocker with a smorgasbord of baking mixes. I recently scoped out glutenfree pastas from DeBoles made with rice
