By Pat Sherman an Diego Mayor Bob Filner held a press conference atop the steps to Children’s Pool beach Jan. 31, officially unveiling a webcam installed there last week. The mayor said the city’s new “seal cam” is the only one of its kind on the West Coast, and will promote tourism by providing the public with round-the-clock video feed of harbor seals during pupping season. “Why not watch the seals?” Filner said during a media event the day before. “I want to see the birth of a seal.” Joined by former California

Coastal Commissioner Sara Wan, and husband, Larry Wan, of the nonprofit Western Alliance for Nature (WAN) Conservancy — which paid $40,000 to purchase and install the webcam for the city — Filner told the crowd the device would allow people around the world to experience an “ecological miracle” in an “urban environment.” “To be able to live in this kind of way with respect to nature makes us better human beings,” Filner said. “Yes, this beach is for human beings, but we are better

Coastkeepers looking for 2013 Coastal Champions By Ashley Mackin San Diego Coastkeeper is accepting nominations for its Coastal Champions awards, which celebrate the people, businesses and organizations taking an initiative to protect San Diego County waters. The seven winners will be announced on World Oceans Day — June 4 — at the Birch Aquarium at Scripps La Jolla. Nominations are due March 15. The awards being given out include: Runoff Rock Star, Water Wise, Marine Conservation, Find & Fix, Blue Tech, Lighthouse Award, Volunteer of the Year and the Areas of Special Biological Significance (ASBS) Award. Last year, La Jolla-based Hike, Bike, Kayak won both the Marine Conservation Award and the ASBS Award for “building a tourism business that combines recreational activity with education about San Diego’s unique marine ecosystems,” said Christina De Leon, awards coordinator. The
ASBS Award was for “Hike, Bike, Kayak’s contribution to protecting one of the most pristine and biologically unique coastal areas in our state … located off La Jolla’s shoreline.” Potential award recipients are evaluated on their passion as much as their actions. “We are looking for passionate and creative individuals, businesses, agencies and groups whose projects are sustainable and effective in protecting and restoring fishable, swimmable and drinkable waters in San Diego County,” De Leon said, adding the organization would also like to see the “common and not-so-common ways people choose to make San Diego’s water better.” In addition to the custom trophy the winners receive, Coastkeeper promotes the causes dear to winners’ hearts by sending out e-mails and featuring winners on its website and social media, which can access some 9,000 people. The pre-appointed

FROM SEAL WEBCAM, A1 when we respect the seals.” The camera was custombuilt by the EarthCam company, which has designed similar webcams that provide remote viewing of panda and giraffe births at zoos, and the ongoing construction of San Diego’s new downtown library. The live feed can be viewed on the conservancy’s website (wanconservancy. org) or mayor’s website (sandiego.gov/mayor). Filner also said the seals can soon be viewed on the city’s local access TV station, channel 24, during hours when the city is not airing council meetings and other municipal programming. “When the mayor said I think it’s a great idea, we went ahead and we had it built,” said Sara Wan, who also thanked former Councilmember Donna Frye, whose “heroic efforts” she said helped her and her husband obtain a Right of Entry permit from the city “as quickly as possible.” “It was kind of a rush job,” Wan said. The permit, signed by
Though some beach access proponents fear the camera might also be used to record and intimidate those who choose to walk beyond the current seal rope guideline, EarthCam representative Steven Puglisi said it would not be used to monitor people. “It’s our company policy that we do not do that anywhere,” Puglisi said. “The president of the company would never agree to that and is very much anti-big brother.” Larry Wan added, “The best assurance is, if they’re not out where the seals are disturbing or harassing them, they wouldn’t be in the (camera’s) view.”
The City of San Diego’s new ‘seal cam’ was a hot topic at the La Jolla Parks and Beaches’ January meeting, where beach access proponents circulated this photo with hand-written text about WAN Conservancy’s Children’s Pool camera, highlighting its features. Pat Sherman Filner on Jan. 25, allows installation and maintenance of one video camera atop the condemned Children’s Pool lifeguard tower through the end of the seals’ pupping season, May 15, “to monitor and
record seal activity.” During the previous day’s press event the mayor confirmed that the city is not charging the WAN Conservancy for using a public facility to operate the camera.

“Actually, the city should be paying us,” Sara Wan told the La Jolla Light. “They’re the ones who are getting all the publicity … and it’s very expensive to have put up.” The camera includes automatic lens wipers to clear
condensation, and infrared lenses so seals can be viewed at night, when they are more likely to give birth. WAN Conservancy staff scan the beach with the camera remotely, periodically zooming in on seals.
Filner sides with the seals Filner drew a line in the sand on the issue when he sided with seal advocates in December, lengthening the guideline rope on Children’s Pool beach from 130 feet to 152 feet (the rope’s intended length). After lengthening the rope, Filner ordered city staff to amend its existing rope permits, which it did Jan. 9.
SEE SEAL WEBCAM, A7
www.lajollalight.com FROM SEAL WEBCAM, A6 A California Coastal Commission spokesperson confirmed that the commission has reviewed and approved the amendments. Filner told those in attendance that the camera would be used for “scientific” purposes and not for enforcement of the rope barrier — though he assured the public that harassment of seals would not go unpunished. “If we have somebody here, whether it’s a ranger or a police officer all the time until we settle this, that should be enforcement enough,” Filner said. “People will be cited for a violation of local and also federal law. … We’ll do it through the proper channels; we don’t want to stir up an unnecessary battle here.” On the beach below, diver David Pierce stood beyond the guideline rope next to a large sign that read: “Beach open for swimming and diving: please respect the wildlife.” Several adults and children, perhaps emboldened by the sign’s message, strolled the shoreline beyond the rope. Sara Wan said additional human activity on the beach had caused the seals to leave the beach, or “flush,” to rocks hugging the adjacent seawall where they were resting as Filner spoke. Though the rope was installed merely as a guideline to deter people from venturing too close to pregnant seals, Filner seemed somewhat unclear
LA JOLLA LIGHT - february 7, 2013 - Page A7
of its intended use, at one point chastising adults and children on the beach below. He also said Pierce’s sign was not legal and promised to have it and other such signs removed “in a legal way.” “Apparently, some people don’t want to abide by the law, or respect nature,” Filner said, motioning to the beach. “I’m not sure that these kids are learning either. They’re not respectful of nature, and they’re not respectful of the law. … I can find 80,000 places for those kids to swim and to snorkel; I can only find one place for the seals.” Asked by beach access proponent Melinda Merryweather if he knew it is “alright for people to cross the rope,” Filner responded, “It is not.” “We were asking for a respectful appreciation of the seals,” he added, “and if we can’t get it out of respect, we will then do it by ordinance.” Filner also told the gathering that the webcam had been vandalized the prior evening, but was back in operation. According to Larry Wan, the lens had apparently been “sprayed” with fluid. Its wipers were then deployed remotely to clean the lens. Wan said the conservancy paid to have someone come clean the infrared lenses. Filner called such vandalism “unacceptable.” “We’re going to enforce this a lot better,” he said. “We cannot allow these few people to spoil this
incredible international opportunity for people all over the world.” Behind the scenes During her opening remarks, Sara Wan thanked La Jolla seal activist Jane Reldan, M.D., of Friends of La Jolla Seals for initially proposing the webcam. (Campaign finance reports show that between July and October of 2012, Reldan donated $850 to Filner’s mayoral campaign.) “I’ve spent the major part of my life working to protect the coast of California, first as volunteer, then with 15 years on the California Coastal Commission,” Wan said. “When Dr. Reldan asked me to get involved, I immediately knew that this was most appropriate for me.” Given the conservancy’s financial investment in the camera, Sara Wan said she would like to see it installed again next pupping season, or potentially during the summer if the city and coastal commission were to approve a year-round rope. “Whenever the rope is present we’d have it — and that may be only during the pupping season — but we haven’t made that decision,” she said, adding that she hopes donations to the conservancy website will help offset the cost of the camera. “It would be nice to recover some of it,” she said. “We’re a small nonprofit and we’re doing this service for the city at no charge, and I think the city understands what a benefit it is to them.”

FROM MARINE RESERVES, A1 City of San Diego and the California Department of Fish and Game in 1971, were altered on Jan. 1, 2012 per the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA). The 1999 state law required all existing MPAs in California to be re-evaluated and reconfigured to function as a statewide network. The law took more than a decade to implement, due to state budget constraints and opposition from various interest groups, Scripps Institution of Oceanography marine ecologist Ed Parnell told the La Jolla Light. A series of meetings with a government-appointed Fish and Game Commission were held from 2009 to 2011, during which scientists, environmental groups, commercial fishing representatives, government officials and other stakeholders offered input on the new boundaries and regulations. However, there has been little information disseminated about the new reserves, which in La Jolla include: San Diego-Scripps Coastal State Marine Conservation Area, Matlahuayl State Marine Reserve, South La Jolla State
Marine Reserve and South La Jolla State Marine Conservation Area. “It was a very contentious process,” often pitting the interests of fishermen against conservationists, Parnell said. LJP&B member Debbie Beacham, who attended several of the meetings, said she felt there was nobody there to represent the interests of La Jollans. Beacham noted that, until recently, there was no public signage identifying the reserves or their regulations, adding to public confusion. “The Department of Fish and Game is now zooming all over La Jolla giving out tickets because people are standing on a beach with a fishing pole where they normally did for years — and now they can’t,” she said. “People have no clue.” LJP&B member Mary Coakley-Munk added that though the mayors of various coastal cities, as well as representatives from Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the Kumeyaay Indians were represented during the decision-making process, to her knowledge the City of San Diego wasn’t wellrepresented.
Regulations for marine protected areas off La Jolla coast ■ San Diego-Scripps Coastal State Marine Conservation Area: Take of all living marine resources prohibited except the recreational take of coastal pelagic species (fish inhabiting the upper layers of the ocean), except market squid, by hook-and-line only. ■ Matlahuayl Sate Marine Reserve: Take of all living marine resources prohibited. Boats may be launched and retrieved only in designated areas and may be anchored within the reserve only during daylight hours. ■ South La Jolla State Marine Reserve: Take of all living marine resources prohibited. ■ South La Jolla State Marine Conservation Area: Take of all living marine resources prohibited, except the recreational take of pelagic finfish, including Pacific bonito, by hook-and-line only. ■ Online MPA maps and info: dfg.ca.gov/mlpa (scroll down and click on the banner for South Coast) “I e-mailed the mayor and Sherri (Lightner’s) office,” she said. “It was extremely political and extremely unfortunate that the City of San Diego did not take part — at least that I’m aware of — in this process, which affects us more than most of the other (areas).” MPA signage on the way A group of stakeholders known as the San Diego County MPA Implementation Collaborative met for the

first time Jan. 30 to address the lack of signage and clarify other issues related to the local MPAs. The group includes representatives from Wildcoast, the Surfrider Foundation, San Diego Coastkeeper, Birch Aquarium, local municipalities (including San Diego), UC San Diego, the Port of San Diego and others. The as-of-now, invitationonly group is also working to provide education and outreach at access points to the reserves, as well as enforcement and monitoring to prevent poaching. Jill Witkowski of San Diego Coastkeeper, who attended the recent meeting, said the collaborative’s next step will be to form effective subgroups to provide outreach to “other groups that need to be involved,” such as LJP&B. One of the goals, Witkowski said, is to encourage the public to use the MPAs “more for non-consumptive things like swimming and surfing” and to help document information on fishing trends. For more information
about the group or to get involved with their effort, e-mail Ben McCue at ben@wildcoast.net or call (619) 423-8665.
In other Parks and Beaches news n New Officers: A slate of new LJP&B officers was unanimously approved during the group’s January meeting, including Dan Allen (president), John Beaver (vice president) and Rebecca Morales (secretary). Phyllis Minick was reelected as treasurer. n Seal Webcam: LJP&B members also discussed the webcam installed last month at Children’s Pool Beach (See story on the Front Page). LJP&B member David Pierce questioned why the city did not post the standard public notice for the project, and why it was not brought before LJP&B before the camera was installed. n Coast Stench: During an update on the Cove stench issue, Mark Evans told LJP&B members he was encouraged with recent progress at the city. Evans said when he began serving as a community liaison on the issue, it was his primary objective to have the city take ownership of the issue. “I think we’ve accomplished that,” he said. “The staff is working very hard day-to-day to find the path of least regulatory resistance to get something done. I no longer feel like it’s our burden to figure out the solution.” Evans said the city is working on both short-term solutions (bird waste removal or camouflaging the odor) and long-term solutions (discouraging birds
from roosting on the Cove rocks). “I know that city staff has met with bird control experts, including the people who worked on the Miramar Landfill issues and some of the hotels,” he said. n Coast Sidewalk Beautification: LJP&B Beautification Projects Chair Phyllis Minick said a major barrier to obtaining grant money to pay for LJP&B’s $250,000 sidewalk beautification project near the Children’s Pool is the lack of a timeframe in which the work will begin and end. Minick said she would soon be meeting with City of San Diego project manager Jihad Sleiman to get a timeframe for replacement of the lifeguard tower at Children’s Pool, which is slated to begin in June. LJP&B hopes to complete the sidewalk project at the same time as the lifeguard tower, and save money by using the same city-approved contractor. “I explained (to him) that when you deal with grant funding agencies, they want to know when a project is going to start and when it’s going to end,” Minick said. “When you can’t tell people exactly what the dates are, it’s almost impossible to get a commitment, and it makes us sound not very real.” Minick said she also attended the inaugural meeting of the San Diego City Council’s new Infrastructure Committee, at which she spoke about the dangers of the crowded, unsafe sidewalk along Coast Boulevard near Children’s Pool. “The foot traffic extends into the street because there just isn’t enough room on the sidewalk the way it is laid out now,” she said.

Courtesy Photos FROM SOCCER, A1 “We’re looking for kids who went through the program who might want to come back and be like a big brother,” said Mary Kaliff, Nomads general administrator. Kaliff explained that the Nomads is a competitive soccer club eager to get the word out that it has simply moved, and not gone out of business nor been replaced by another club. That rumor was brought to Kaliff’s attention at a pediatrician’s office in La Jolla, where another person

in the waiting room told her that La Jolla Impact Youth Soccer had absorbed the Nomads Club into its program. Kaliff worried that Nomads’ alumni might erroneously think the same thing. “It’s a shame that after 30 years of coaching youth soccer, with most of those years here in our La Jolla community that we are a very big part of, our alumni might think we are no longer around,” she said. Nomads Head Coach Derek Armstrong said the intensive Nomads Soccer Club is one of the

A national team program oversees the training curriculum. Players train three to
four times a week and play games on weekends. “This is not the program where kids come for eight weeks and play with the volunteer dads … we train year-round,” Kaliff said. Since 1988, the Nomads have won 32 championship titles and have had Nomads alumni participate in every World Cup since 1986, Kaliff pointed out. Several former players have been drafted to Major League Soccer (MLS) teams. Current MLS Men’s National Team members Joe Corona and Steve Cherundolo are
both Nomads alums. Brothers Michael and Gabriel Farfan currently play for the Philadelphia Union soccer team. Danny Delgado, another Nomads alumnus, was recently drafted to the San Jose Earthquakes team. “I don’t think there’s any club that puts kids on the national teams as much as we have,” Kaliff said. The Nomads also operate a “community school” that is a stepping-stone toward making the Nomads teams. Coaches train the players to help them “develop to their fullest potential,” Kaliff said.

Amazon Cloud helps advance molecular research
Research Report By LynnE Friedmann
U
nderstanding the interaction of proteins and enzymes is key to discovering and advancing treatments for diseases. Unfortunately, conventional light microscopes cannot clearly show objects as small as single molecules and
electron microscopy cannot be effectively used with living cells. A mathematically based technique called Photoactivated Localization Microscopy (PALM) helps solve this problem, but it takes hours and often days to crunch all the numbers required to produce one usable image. To make PALM more practical as a research tool, Salk Institute investigators have turned to the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, which provides access to supercomputing via the Internet, allowing massive computing tasks to be distributed over banks of computers. The team wrote
computer code that allows the upload and processing of PALM images using Amazon Cloud. Depending on the size of the data set, this method can save over a week’s worth of time and makes single-molecule microscopy available to more laboratories. The “how-to” paper appears in the journal Nature Methods. More information at http://bit.ly/Tm4QX3 Inexpensive method marks cells Chemists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have found an easier way to perform one of the most fundamental tasks in molecular biology.

method allows scientists to add a marker to certain cells, so that these cells may be easily located and/or selected out from a larger cell population. The technique makes use of the tight binding of two proteins that are cheaply obtainable but are not found in human or other mammalian cells. As such, it has advantages over existing, more costly and cumbersome cell-marking techniques; the best known of which employs a green fluorescent protein from a jellyfish. In addition to use as a laboratory tool, the TSRI team is also investigating a potential use for the new cell marking in living animals, for example, to
track the fates of selected cell types throughout an animal’s lifespan. The technique is described in the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition.

Fitness is for every age at Excel Sport and Therapy By Marti Gacioch Because fitness is for everyone, Excel Sport and Therapy customized its programs to meet the needs of clients ages 9 to 75. Owned and operated by Trevor Isaacs, Excel has specialized in one-on-one private coaching and small group fitness training sessions since 1998. The programs focus on personal and objective fitness-based training, rather than on large classes in a group volume facility. Excel’s programs are targeted to four different age groups. “Our older population (ages 60-75) is concerned about weightbearing exercise, osteoporosis prevention and maintaining muscle mass, so we offer weight training programs designed for them,� Isaacs said. “Our 40-60 age group is more performance-based, but not to the extent of training for a sport that’s competitive, so we have cardiovascular conditioning and nutrition education to help them prevent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.� High school and collegiate athletes, and semipro athletes (ages 15-30), practice performance-based training at Excel to reach a high level of sports competition. “Our Excel Squad (young adult program for ages 9-14) is all about body awareness and how to move their bodies, along with education,

nutrition and proper training techniques,� Isaacs said. “Our science here is called dynamic core stability. It uses our functional range of motion and core training techniques like isometrics.� While in graduate school (on his way to medical school), Isaacs said he worked with a lot of physicians and people who had issues with their bodies, and soon found fulfillment in helping them. He passed on medical school, developed a good base of
clients and a good business model, and his fitness studio took off. He never looked back. “I found people need the inspiration and motivation that I provide,� Isaacs said. “They look for someone who can answer their questions about how a body is supposed to work.� Excel Sport and Therapy is now offering two specials. Their $299 per month Small Group membership program offers personal training. Clients can sign up online and
choose from classes on the schedule and attend an unlimited number of workout sessions each month. The studio is also running a private training program special. Clients who sign up for a three-month cycle (paid in full) will get the fourth month free. Excel Sport & Therapy, 7437 Girard Ave., La Jolla, is open from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mondays-Fridays and by appointment only on Saturdays. (858) 459-3310. excellajolla.com

Heinz Gietz Autohaus is a gem in the La Jolla community. Standing in its original location on Virginia Way since 1969, Heinz Gietz Autohaus is one of California’s original Mercedes-Benz Factory Authorized Service Dealers and is the lone service only dealer left of its kind. With an open-air service center and a family atmosphere one can watch their Mercedes-Benz being serviced and receive a genuinely traditional customer appreciation.

The ‘In Eden’ apartments at Prospect and Cuvier streets fetched one of the highest apartment complex sale prices in San Diego County history. Courtesy Photos
La Jolla apartment building sells for record $8.95 million A married couple from La Jolla, who wished to remain anonymous, has purchased the 17-unit “In Eden� apartment complex at Prospect and Cuvier streets for approximately $8.95 million. The seller was Eden Suites LLC of Los Angeles. According to San Diego Business Journal, Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, who represented the seller, stated that the sale price set a countywide record, with each unit selling for
approximately $526,471 — or a little more than $719 per square foot. The 12,442-square-foot complex at 600-616 Prospect St. was built in 1960, and features unobstructed ocean views from each unit. The building, near the Museum of Contemporary Art and La Jolla Rec Center, was on the market less than a month, garnering offers from seven bidders. The previous owner, a woman in her 80s who
has resided at the complex for the past 25 years, decided to sell after consulting with her children, said Dave Plutner, broker-owner of Encinitas-based DP Properties, which represented the buyer. Plutner said the new owners plan to continue offering the units as apartments, which currently rent for about $2,000 for onebedrooms and $3,000 for twobedrooms. An ad for the property at
Is Your Nest Egg Secure?
loopnet.com touted the complex as being “an exceptional opportunity for investors.� “Significant rental upside is achievable due to the current strength of the market and can be further achieved through a renovation of the existing units,� the ad states. “In addition, a more aggressive management plan could be implemented immediately to increase rents while lease terms can also be manipulated to further
maximize returns during peak seasons such as vacation rentals.� The also ad states that the twoparcel property is zoned to allow 29 units per acre “and other cultural uses such as private clubs, museums public and private libraries and churches.� Current zoning also allows for development of eight luxury townhomes or condominiums of around 2,400 square feet each. — Pat Sherman

How do you feel about the city’s newly installed ‘seal cam’ at Children’s Pool beach?
We asked this question at Pannikin Coffee & Tea Feb. 5. — Compiled by Pat Sherman

“I don’t have an issue with it. The camera will keep predominantly honest people, honest. I can walk down the street and someone can take pictures of me all day long. It’s not illegal. I mean, you’re in public.” Martin Cramer Pacific Beach
“I personally don’t mind it. When there are things like global warming affecting the natural migration of animals, such as whales and seals, it is important from a science and an environmental standpoint to have something like that where scientists can monitor to see what’s going on. If the mayor waited to seek public approval it would be like trying to get the Cove cleaned and not smelling as bad — it would never happen.” Kristen Lange La Jolla
“I’m sentimental about the place because my kids learned to swim there, but then my grandkids love to go see the seals, so I’ve wavered back and forth. I like the camera because it (provides) more access for my grandkids to see the seals. What do they say, 85 percent of our lives are being videoed? I’ve kind of given up any paranoia about that. I do think, though, it’s there (at the request of) the people who favor the seals to see if anything bad is happening.” David Marsh La Jolla
“Having more public webcams that show off our public domain and our tourist attractions is a great idea. It would attract more people, more money and help with the economy. However, I don’t think that’s why the mayor put it there. I think it’s to watch the people that have been bothering the seals. Personally, I’m not OK with the camera.” Nima Biganeh La Jolla
“I read about it in the Light. My first reaction wasn’t good. We’re losing privacy everywhere. I didn’t like it.” Mina Kazerouni La Jolla
“My wife (and I) live next to the La Jolla library. We have a bit of a problem with the homeless (and) there are a whole bunch of cameras around the library. Maybe they ought to be online; maybe there ought to be webcams. I mean, we are interested in intimidating people on the library premises who intimidate other people.” Dave Cutchin La Jolla
“Monitoring the seals is probably a good thing, checking them out. I don’t have any objections to it at all. I think it’s just going to help people understand their behavior. We’re sharing their habitat, really.” April Cardenas La Jolla
“It would be a good thing if it brings more people to the beach, but at the same time some people might feel weird about being on a camera. Personally, I don’t mind being on a camera when I’m on the beach, but I know a lot of people, especially maybe older generations, would be worried about their privacy.” David Sluys La Jolla

La Jolla is poised for polishing, Mayor Filner
O
ne of La Jolla’s biggest tourist attractions — the seals and sea lions frolicking along its shorelines — is going global with the installation of a real-time webcam streaming images from the beach to whom ever logs on to wanconservancy.org to watch. Thank you Mayor Filner and Western Alliance for Nature. We’re certain, people who view the marine life display will want to come see it for themselves and spend their hard-earned vacation hours and dollars exploring the scenic jewel that is our beloved La Jolla. But now this begs the question, what do we offer those enthusiasts when they come to visit? Does our Village live up to the hype? Is our ocean air clean and refreshing? Our
OUR VIEW sidewalks and pathways clear and not crumbling? Our restrooms sanitary and safe? Our seawalls strong and supportive? Do our restaurants and cafes provide memorable experiences? Do our businesses offer first-class service and value? Many La Jollans are working behind the scenes to bring beautification and marketing projects to fruition. La Jolla has been ready to refresh itself for years now. Funding is key and lacking at this point. We hope and trust that if the mayor wants to increase tourism, he will expedite and help finance the Village improvement projects
planned, starting with La Jolla Parks and Beaches’ (LJP&B’) planned remodel of the shoddy, unsafe sidewalk near Children’s Pool (not nearly as rapturous on camera as our seals). To keep project costs at $250,000, time is of the essence to secure funding. Additional La Jolla improvement projects worth considering include managing the La Jolla Cove odor, easing traffic congestion along Torrey Pines Road and working with the owner of Red Roost and Red Rest cottages to come up with a sensible plan to restore or relocate these historic, albeit, horrific eyesores. Thank you, Mayor, for taking La Jolla under your wing with prompt, populist action. We hope your commitment to the Village is one that will endure.

OUR READERS WRITE
Residents should be exempt from property parking tickets My name is William Rogers. I live and own (since 1969), a home on Vista del Mar Ave. in La Jolla’s WindanSea Beach area. I’m an 81-year-old single parent of a 10-year-old son. I’m a disabled Korean vet with very limited leg mobility. I use a walking cane exclusively and infrequently crutches. I also have a “Disabled” placard for my auto. On Saturday, Jan. 19 at 9:11 a.m., I received the THIRD parking citation for parking parallel to the curb, but within the envelope entrance to my OWN driveway. The driveway gate — at the property line and adjacent to the sidewalk and opening to the driveway leading to the garage — is hand operated from the inside of the gate. One has to park the auto, walk to the people gate, go inside the yard and walk around the yard to open the driveway gate. Often, as on the day of the citation, with no other parking spots available, I park in the driveway, lead my son into house, unload groceries or whatever upstairs in the house. When I returned back downstairs to the gate and auto on Jan. 19 there on the windshield was the citation adjacent to my Handicap Sticker. With the handicap sticker and the license plate on the auto, all the officer had to do was check such against the owner’s address and realize that the auto belongs to the owner of the house. What has happened to the intelligence level of the monitoring officers? Is the city so desperate to balance the budget that they’ve resorted to harassing the public they’re sworn to protect? With this tactic, whom are they protecting? Because of my proximity to the beach, over the past 44 years I’ve often had people park and block my driveway. I’d contact the police, and always be informed that they write a ticket, but are not authorized to tow because of possible liability. So, often I park in the driveway entrance to avoid being blocked from entering or exiting my property. I do not know what the California Code dictates, but it certainly did NOT intentionally create laws to keep owners from blocking their own driveways, but rather to protect owners from others. If there is no solution to avoiding more of the same, how do I acquire a handicap-only painted slot on the curb adjacent to my driveway entrance? William Rogers La Jolla
Seals are where nature put them I am appalled at the contemptuous remark “those miserable seals,” written by a reader in a letter last week. The sea does not belong to us, neither do her inhabitants. Arrogantly, we humans assume that we are the most important species populating the planet Earth by the billions. Some of us, however, live with affection for Mother Nature and all that she offers us in abundance. That includes the seals. The ignorance and selfrighteousness of some La Jollans is shameful.
Seal pupping season is underway at Children’s Pool through May 15. File Ellen Browning Scripps, if she were alive today, would smile viewing this rookery of sunbathing blubber in the midst of our community. She would not want the demise of the seals, who find the Children’s Pool a safe haven. Ms. Scripps was first and foremost a lover of nature. When I moved to La Jolla 50 years ago, it was a humane and friendly place. It no longer is. A climate change has also affected the dispositions of its population. I wish to express my thanks to Mayor Filner for doing the right thing. Isabella Miram La Jolla
Build a new Children’s Pool down the shore With all of the money being spent on the “Children’s Pool” debate, why not just build another barrier wall down the beach a bit (maybe closer to the Shores) for the kids to swim in and leave the seals alone in a place they have lived for years. The seals make a LOT of money for this community and bring in a lot of visitors, whereas the Children’s Pool would not. And, this shouldn’t even have to be said BUT IT’S THEIR HOME! It’s not like they can pack up and move inland or go swim at the YMCA! Melissa Macis Pacific Beach
Sound reasons for a shorter seal rope I would like to reply to a letter written by Frances Zimmerman, in the last issue, concerning myself and the mayor’s personal decision to lengthen the rope at the Children’s Pool. To begin with, I am not “a spokesperson for self-styled beach access advocates.” I, in fact, am a member of the Friends of Children’s Pool, whose mission is to protect, preserve and enhance the Children’s Pool, a gift to this community and the City of San Diego for the specific purpose of swimming, diving, fishing and recreation in the safe area behind the sea wall, donated by La Jolla benefactress Ellen Browning Scripps. The La Jolla Community Planning Association overwhelming voted 12 to 1 to write a letter to the mayor explaining, first of all, that he was going against the city attorney’s advice to not do this, and also,
that he could not just order city workers to lengthen the rope from 130 feet to 152 feet because he liked the idea. That rope has been 130 feet for five years or more. There was a request for a longer rope but it was never approved! So the mayor, who was quoted as saying he would be different because he was going to listen to the communities and what they want, has gone against this community and the city attorney. The Community Planning Association has voted six times, that I know of, to oppose the city’s plans to restrict access at the Children’s Pool, as has the Town Council, and Parks and Beaches. I believe that is the voice of this community, loud and clear. … (Now with the seal-cam) we will see that the seals get up in the morning and go in the ocean by themselves — no one is there running them into the ocean. We will also see the pro-seal people yelling at people and children, and ordering people around like they own the beach. This could be a good thing. Remember, in California it is your constitutional right to enter the ocean. I was at the Children’s Pool today (Jan. 31) to hear the mayor speak about the new camera at the pool. As he spoke, he kept speaking unkindly about the people on the beach, a few children running in and out of the water, a snorkeler and about six others. There were two seals by the wall and some on the rocks. As the TV cameras were rolling, I asked the mayor if he was aware that those people could cross the rope to go to the beach, and his answer was “NO!” he did not. So this poor man has people on his staff, who are not telling him the facts, or they have no idea what the facts are. It was astounding. I am definitely not a “zealous anti-seal activist.” I am for joint-use at the Pool, and honoring the gift from Ellen, and her family’s request to keep the Children’s Pool open to the children. Lastly, yes, there was a poll done on the La Jolla Light website asking, ‘Do you favor a year-round seal rope at Children’s Pool?’ The results were: 41 yes, 201 no! Melinda Merryweather La Jolla
Blogs do not speak for scientific research
In the Jan. 31 issue, Barbara Decker pleads for the La Jolla Light to “please offer another view” in regard to media coverage of global change issues. She is concerned that “money and greed have a way of changing the facts” of global change research. Everyone is of course entitled to their opinion, but that of Ms. Decker as evidenced by the two website links she included is at odds with the overwhelming consensus expressed by the scientific global change research community. The facts themselves are simply what they are and come from measured data, not opinion. If readers want to stay informed on global change issues they might, short of reading the original research literature, go to reputable news sources such as National Public Radio (www.npr.org) or the National Academy of Sciences (www.nas.edu), not Internet opinion blogs. Stephen Roberts La Jolla
Totally fed up with Cove stench If those Save Seals and Seagulls people at the Children’s Pool had to smell the stench 24/7, they might find a quick solution to the problem. Recently, while trying to shop in La Jolla, I had to leave the Village since the stench was sickening. Should the Children’s Pool be called the “Stench” Pool? The children only need a small beach. The seals and seagulls have the entire coast line. I am waiting for clean, fresh, ocean air. BZ La Jolla

OBITUARIES Dolores P. Brower 1925 – 2013
Lorry was born in Milwaukee, WI, on March 20, 1925. She was well educated in private schools, got married and had three children. After the dissolution of her marriage, she raised her three children on her own well before it was fashionable to do so. Her career included stints with business management, working in the nursing
profession and, of course, cooking for her children, their children, and many friends. After retirement, her love of cooking and viewing the modern world around her gave her the idea of a recession-proof cookbook, which we all still use. Living through the Great Depression and watching her parents during that time also had an effect on her inspiration. Lorry was a
volunteer at La Jolla Elementary and a volunteer who helped raise her much loved grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She is survived by two of her children; many grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren. Lorry will be greatly missed. A private service has been held at the Self Realization Temple in Encinitas.

Viking men defeat Lincoln Hornets in Western League game By Michael Ragovin The La Jolla High School varsity basketball team once again played tight defense that proved to be too much for the Lincoln High School Hornets on Jan. 25 in the “Big Gym.” The Vikings walked off the court, celebrating a 53-41 victory. Each man in the hardworking Viking defense stayed chest-to-chest with his individual assignments throughout the game. The Vikings came into the contest with an overall record of 11 wins and nine losses, including two wins and four losses in league play. They are a very good team and a lot of fun to watch. Tyson Young hit the first bucket of the game at the 6:26 mark of the first quarter. Before Lincoln could score, La Jolla held a 5-0 lead with 5:25 left. Lincoln got on the board with a lay in, followed by a jumper and the Vikings lead was 5-4. David McColl got an offensive rebound and made it count putting it back up for two and the score was 7-4. Jackson Smith stole a

Hornet pass, got the ball to Daniel Farkas who layed it in for a 9-4 Viking lead with 2:40 to go in the first period. McColl hit an open Madigan Sepulveda under the basket, who scored, and La Jolla lead 11-4. Farkas stole the ball and passed to Zach Ohara under the basket who converted the turnover for a threepoint play and the scoring for the period ended with La Jolla leading 14-5. Four minutes and seven seconds of the second period elapsed before either team could manage a score. A steal and lay in by Farkas broke the cold spell. Lincoln finally scored on a lay in
with 3:34 left in the period and La Jolla lead 16-7. Matt Needham hit a jumper with three minutes left in the quarter making it 18-7 followed by a lay in by the Hornets. La Jolla fouled a Hornet under the basket who made one free throw and the score was 18-10. The second period ended with La Jolla scoring two. La Jolla lead 20-10. The Viking defense was definitely on their “game” limiting Lincoln to only 10 points in the first half. The scoring picked up the third period. A give and go from Ohara to Farkas, who missed the lay in and sunk both free throws, gave the

Vikings a 22-10 bulge. Another offensive rebound by the Hornets and put back, made the score 22-12.

Ohara to McColl, who made it count, followed by a behind-the-back pass in front of the basket by Ohara, and La Jolla scored four more stretching their lead to 10 points 31-21 with two minutes left in the period. Lincoln scored on a free throw and a three-point play and just like that the lead was down to seven 3125. A neat move to the basket by Ohara, a three ball by Lincoln and three-point buzzer beater by Ohara ended the third period with the Vikings leading 36-27. Ohara opened the fourth period with a three pointer. Lincoln followed with a slam dunk and a three ball and the score was Vikings 39, Hornets 32. A driving lay in by Tyson Young and La Jolla pulled ahead 41-32. Another offensive rebound by Lincoln and lay in and
suddenly Lincoln closes the gap to 41-36. That is as close as it got. Ohara took over from there hitting a three pointer, making both ends of a one and one and finally a three point play on a driving lay in followed by a throw. After the game Coach Baranowski said, “Total team effort … great preparation this week in practice … understanding what had to be done to beat a very athletic team. The kids played super hard. Defensive effort was acceptable. We are undersized; we have to work a little bit harder on rebounding. I thought Ohara pulled us out of quite a few holes with big threepoint shots and big rebounds on the other end of the floor. Great intensity from our kids. I feel really good about what they accomplished.”

Country Day Lady Torreys get past Bishop’s Knights, 62-45 By Michael Ragovin The game played Friday, Feb. 1 between the girls varsity basketball teams at La Jolla Country Day and The Bishop’s School was a lot closer than the final score indicates: Torreys 62, Knights 45. The Country Day Torreys got off to a peak 19-3 lead in the first quarter. To their credit, the Bishop’s Knights never quit and eventually got within five points. Country Day met the challenge and pulled away at the end. The Torreys just had too many guns and an extraordinary gunner — with a pigtail. At the 3:39 mark of the first period, Country Day led Bishop’s, 12-2. A jumper by Melanie Quijano put the Torreys ahead 14-2 with 3:18 left. Bishop’s made a free throw, the Torreys couldn’t convert a lay in opportunity and Kelsey Plum hit one from behind the arc to make the score 17-3, giving Country Day a 14-point lead with the first period winding down in the first period. Now came one of the most creative plays ever seen. Plum threw the ball in from out-ofbounds bouncing it off a Bishop’s player, caught it, and then scored on a lay in, increasing the Torreys

3-pointer bringing the score to 24-9 at the 5:34 mark of the second period. Bishop’s drove hard to the hoop missing the lay in, but converted two free throws with 5:28 left in the second period with the score 24-11. Both teams missed on offensive
rebound opportunities and then Bishop’s made a three, closing the gap to 24-14. Yasukouci buried a 3-pointer from way behind the arc, hit on jumper for two points and with 2:18 left in the second, the Torreys were ahead 29-16. With 45 seconds left in the period and the score 32-21, Country Day missed on another lay in opportunity off a beautiful pass from Plum. Bishop’s scored on a 3-pointer and Plum put back on offensive rebound to end the first half with the Torreys leading, 34-24. Plum hit a jumper from the left side of the key to start Country Day off in the third period and then stole the inbound pass, missed the lay in and made two free throws. Mai-Loni Henson made two free throws to bring the score to 40-26. With 4 minutes left in the period, the score, 44-27, was a result of a 2-point putback under the boards by Cydney Collins, Plum drove the length of the floor with a rebound and put it in and Bishop’s made a free throw. Bishop’s made a three-point basket and scored on a fast break and the score was 44-32. Plum made a free throw, Bishop’s made two, and Bishop’s drove the length of the court with a rebound, ending the
third period, 45-36. Yasukouci scored under the basket on a great pass from Quijano to start the fourth period. With 4:15 seconds remaining, Plum literally took over the game and scored 11 of the final 13 points for the Torreys. At the end of the game coach Terri Bamford remarked,” We had some good moments and we had some bad moments. We missed a lot of easy layups. Bishop’s had a lot of height that alters the way you look at it. We normally don’t shoot layups that poorly and it was the big in difference letting them back into the game.” The teams will meet again at 6 p.m. Monday, Feb. 12 at Bishop’s. n Boys Game: The second part of the double-header matched the boy’s varsity teams from Country Day and Bishop’s at Country Day. It was really a blowout with the Knights winning, 77-38. Bishop’s played a very disciplined offensive game running their patterns and waiting for opportunities to score. Their intensity, especially on defense, created a lot of Torrey turnovers and frustration. These teams meet again at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 12 at Bishop’s.

Belief in service leads John Weinstein to help kids in need John Weinstein was born in Westchester County, New York. His father was an orthopedic surgeon. His parents took him and his two older sisters on vacations every year where he said he developed an appreciation for diversity and travel. He said they taught him to be responsible and reliable. Eager to be independent, Weinstein completed high school and college in six and half years. He later earned a master’s degree and a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) designation. Weinstein said he enJohn Weinstein joyed having the opportunity to volunteer with Big Brothers/Big Sisters as a mentor and board member; It’s All About The Kids Foundation; Voices for Children, as a Court Appointed Special Advocate for foster youth; La Jolla Newcomers, as the Breakfast Speaker Chair: and as a trustee on La Jolla Town Council, as the Second Vice-President and Membership Chair. His first career included working with three Fortune 500 apparel companies in management positions, culminating as Divisional Vice-President with Warnaco. He joined Smith Barney as a financial advisor in 1998. In April 2012, he joined long-time business colleague Michael Malvin, founder of Decision Investments, an independent firm in UTC as Managing Partner & Portfolio Manager. While Weinstein said he “misses the great La Jolla Village atmosphere, it is more than made up for by the entrepreneurial, conflict-free environment to better serve my clients at Decision Investments.”
What brought you to La Jolla? Growing up in Purchase and Rye, New York, I always thought San Diego would be a great place to live. After my junior year of college at George Washington University in D.C., I registered to take classes at UCSD in 1979 for the summer. I then fell in love with La Jolla. In 1983, after receiving my MBA from George Washington U. and a few months in Boston, I was transferred by luck to La Jolla for a year and half in 1983. In 1998, when making a career change, I decided to make La Jolla my permanent home.

There is a heavy emphasis on humor, art and entertainment, just fun films with a lot of award-winning film styles and techniques.” The films screening at the festival have earned accolades worldwide, including Academy Award nominations and wins, Comic-Con International awards, as well as awards from international film festivals. The Academy Award winners being shown include “Bunny” by Chris Wedge (who also made “Ice Age”) with music by Tom Waits; “Mona Lisa Descending a Staircase” by Joan Gratz; “For the Birds” by Ralph Eggleston of Pixar Animation Studios; and “Creature Comforts” by Nick Park of “Wallace and Gromit” fame. There are also festival surprises that will be kept secret until the day of their screening. Decker said one of which, (an Oscar winner) is the best film in the festival. Being an anniversary year, Decker said

Ushers were the bride’s brother, Bryan Lloyd, the groom’s cousin, Sean Owens, along with Freddy Geils, Ricky Tiscareno and Jeffery Mark Pierce. Emily’s Irish heritage was highlighted as she was escorted down the aisle on her father’s arm to the Canon in D played on the Uilleann pipes, fiddle and organ. Other wedding music was prepared and sung by attendants and friends, including the groom’s father who sang “Ave Maria,” and the groom who sang “The Lord’s Prayer.” The reception was on the William D.

Start your day the Pannikin way — sustenance and a smile By Kelley Carlson rom sunrise until sundown, La Jolla’s Pannikin Coffee & Tea is constantly buzzing with customers. It’s a cozy setting, a haven for all ages. On the patio, birds serenade customers from the treetops all day long. Dogs curl up next to their owners, who sip on steaming cups of java while perusing a newspaper from the stands on the sidewalk. A chalkboard outside the restaurant’s door highlights menu items and notes the hours with an artistic flair. And if it’s not a typically warm Southern California day, heat lamps keep the temperature comfortable. Inside reveals old-school charm with modern-day touches, complete with eclectic knickknacks. Patrons travel a wellworn wood floor to the counter to place their orders for breakfast and lunch entrees, coffees and teas, or baked goods in the glass case. They settle in seats next to windows with lace curtains, set up their laptops and take advantage of free WiFi, gather around the chess table in the back, or kick back in the colorful seats and socialize with friends. The walls display an ever-changing array of paintings, with a different local artist featured each month. There’s also a photo collection of past-and-present employees. Tunes from jazz musicians like Django Reinhardt and Ella Fitzgerald, to folk singer Iron & Wine add to the coffeehouse setting. Pannikin fills up early and stays steady all day, and then begins to mellow around 4-4:30 p.m. To fully appreciate the experience, Amanda Morrow, who co-owns the establishment with Renee Moreno, suggests coming in around 9 a.m. on a sunny morning and sitting outside. If it’s raining, come extra early to reserve a seat by the fireplace, which has a red-and-white Harley hanging over it. (Original owner Robert “Bob” Sinclair collected motorbikes.) Morrow said the baristas get to know the

Spinach Mushroom Quiche and red chai tea customers’ names and preferences, so they know what to prepare when patrons walk through the door. “I feel like we’re a real community,” she said. “We don’t treat people like they are a number.” The La Jolla Pannikin also maintains a close connection with area businesses, including its sister locations in Del Mar and Leucadia, which have different owners. They share the same recipes and assorted pastries, and the coffee beans are roasted at the Leucadia site, guaranteeing that the java is never more than a week old. “We never have old coffee; it’s super-duper fresh,” said Morrow, who established the roastery for the company. There are about 20 varieties of coffees (along with 40 types of teas) which can be purchased in store or online. In addition, Pannikin offers a full espresso bar, and the
creative baristas often turn the foam into works of art. Among the specialty drinks are the Jimi Hendrix with four shots of espresso, steamed Mexican chocolate milk and hazelnut syrup; the Keith Richards, identical to the Jimi Hendrix except there’s no hazelnut syrup, but there is foam on top; and the Michael Jackson, consisting of three shots of espresso, half Mexican chocolate and half white chocolate. Among the baked goods to accompany the java are scones and muffins that are made from scratch daily, starting at 4 a.m. Additional morning fare includes granola and fresh bagels from Busy Bee’s in La Jolla. Heartier breakfast plates include quiche and Greek Eggs with feta cheese, basil and tomato. Morrow recommends adding avocado to the latter for enhancing the entree. One type of dish that sets the La Jolla
Pannikin apart from the other two sites is the fact that it offers burritos. The Breakfast Burrito Especial is stuffed with eggs, cheese, homemade beans, tomatoes and Eugenio’s salsa, named for the head chef. Morrow’s favorite is the Eugenio Burrito Especial, a tortilla that is filled with vegetables, eggs, cheese and beans, topped with Swiss cheese and salsa, and then baked. “It’s the size of a small child,” Morrow said with a laugh. For lunch, there are sandwiches and salads, and soups that are prepared each day from Suzie’s Farm organic vegetables. But there’s more to the Pannikin than meets the eye: Morrow revealed there’s a secret menu. Not all of the items can be revealed here, but a few include the Vegan Quesadilla, Huevos a la Mexicana, and children’s drinks such as French Soda, Kids Chocolate Milk and Kids Hot Chocolate.

New Year’s health tips that I don’t intend to follow
Let Inga tell you ...
I
always think of January as The Attack of the Skinny People, the folks who were posing for their cover shots on every major women’s magazine while the rest of us were scarfing down pumpkin pie, Christmas cookies and potato latkes. Their results are to be commended, of course, but let me just say that you can save yourself the trouble of buying these post-holiday magazines because despite the glowing write-ups and the beforeand-after photos, their success can all be summed in two words: Eat less. Of course, a two word article doesn’t sell magazines, so the publications feel compelled to bombard us with health and weight loss tips that range from flat-out
idiotic to those of dubious scientific merit, always prefaced with “research suggests…” Here are some of my favorites gleaned from the January glossies: “Carry an Altoids container filled with nuts. It fits about 24 almonds – your perfect portion size!” It also makes the almonds taste like Altoids, which means you’ll never eat them. Definitely a good weight loss trick! “Put motivating quotes on our fridge, by your bed, and on your calendar!” Is it OK to tape them over last year’s? “Limit snacks. Mindless eating can add up to 300 extra calories a day.” 300? I should be so lucky. Have these people never heard of Dove Bars? “Sip hot water and lemon before breakfast. It helps detoxify your liver.” When I want to detoxify my liver, I prefer a large orange juice with a little salt and two Advil. “Each gram of fiber you eat cancels out seven calories.” So, like, these calories never happened? “Add turmeric to your
food. It can reduce your chances of developing dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.” Of course, everything you eat will be yellow. But a small price to pay for not developing … what was that again? A full-page display ad for a weight loss supplement featured before and after photos of both men and women. Forget the weight loss. I want the six-pack abs and the permanent tan that you get from the product. Facial wrinkle tip: “Try to sleep on your back. If you lie on your side, it causes creasing in the skin. Over time, it remains etched in there.” (Source: Journal of Seriously Spurious Medical Facts?) In one weight loss success story, the guy says: “The same feeling I would get from eating a whole pizza and a bottle of wine, I get from running now.” Sorry, but this guy is clearly a plant from an alien galaxy and should be immediately repatriated with his fellow Klingons. To sleep better at night: “Take a bubble bath.”
(Sounds good.) “Why bubbles? They form a layer of insulation on top, which keeps the water hot longer.” Clearly a guy wrote this. Bubbles, meathead, look pretty, are generally scented, and keep you from having to gaze upon the results of the last ten years’ food felonies. I mean, duh. “Research suggests a 30-minute workout will reduce hot flashes for 24 hours.” Define “reduce.” Especially define “research.” What’s “In” in 2013: “Pencil skirts look polished and flatter every body type.” Pencil skirts look good on pencil-shaped people and make the rest of us look like fermenting pork sausages. “Instead of a cheeseburger and fries, have a lean bison burger on whole wheat pita with baked sweet potato fries.” The magazine alleges the satisfaction is the same (hah!) but the calories are much lower. News flash: What makes food satisfying are Vitamins S and G (salt and grease). And you don’t want to know what Jonathan’s charges for bison. Still, I have to confess
The Preuss School UCSD to receive Peacemaker award The National Conflict Resolution Center, which recognizes organizations for creative and effective solutions to crises and conflict, celebrates its 25th annual Peacemaker Awards this year with local honoree The Preuss School UCSD and national honoree the USNS Mercy, March 14 at the San Diego Marriott Marquis & Marina. The Preuss School is being honored because it follows a rigorous college preparatory curriculum “to help low-income students distinguish themselves academically so they will be competitively eligible for college admission.” The USNS Mercy is the lead hospital ship in the Navy and acts as a mobile surgical hospital for use by U.S. government agencies in humanitarian civic assistance, disaster or humanitarian relief. USNS Mercy missions focus on diplomacy, and it is one of just two American ships originally built for war but now used as an instrument of peace.

that I’m always a sucker for those insanely healthy recipes that populate magazine and newspaper pages the first week of January. In the spirit of post-holiday penance, I went for the 99% fat-free turkey meatball recipe made with quinoa instead of breadcrumbs, poached in sodium-free organic marinara sauce and served over a mound of whole wheat penne pasta and steamed broccoli. The second night, the leftover
turkey meatballs were carefully rinsed, revitalized in a vat of Classico Italian Sausage pasta sauce and served over linguine. The leftover broccoli is in a Tupperware container growing a new strain of penicillin. I tried, I really did.

had both curative and seductive properties. Prized as a high octane aphrodisiac, Emperor Montezuma, the 16th century’s version of Charlie Sheen, was said to have guzzled fifty goblets of the chilled potent potion every day to fortify his serial love making sessions with women in his harem. When it was established as a beverage for the privileged (and sexy) members of Aztec society, it helped solidify chocolate’s reputation as an aphrodisiac to this day. Mirthful Mood Food The scientific world is now confirming what women knew forever about the powers of chocolate to lift the spirits and ease anxiety, thanks to the mood elevators cacao triggers in the brain, such as serotonin and endorphins.
Chocolate also contains a magical substance that affects the romantic wiring in the brain, releasing the same chemical compound into the body when a person falls gaga in love. It is so powerful a substance that chocolate was banned in monasteries centuries back to prevent monks from being “enticed.� Anything you do with chocolate is divine — sprinkle shavings on French toast or waffles, or make a chocolate fondue to warm the cockles of your lover’s heart. Dip fresh or dried fruit into melted chocolate like strawberries, chunks of pineapple, cantaloupe, apricots or bananas for a double dose of desire. Imagination is the only limit for the many uses of drizzled chocolate.

cholesterol levels. In fact, cacao consumed regularly lowers blood pressure and tinkers with vessels, allowing better blood flow. Although chocolate contains the fatty acid cacao butter, this monounsaturated friendly fat is found in heart-healthy olive oil. Bittersweet also has a mother lode of stressrelieving B vitamins, and essential minerals including, potassium, calcium, copper, iron and zinc, the latter known to stimulate testosterone production, which can lead to romantic possibilities. The White Side To chocolate aficionados, white “chocolate� is an imposter loaded with high caloric, artery-clogging milk fats, butter and sugars, and lacking cacao solids, the natural heart-healthy vegetable fat extracted from the cacao bean. Highly processed, the white confection is also striped of antioxidant-rich flavonoids rife in its dark counterpart. When relishing this fake indulgence, standing advice is moderation. The Dark Side The documentary “Bittersweet: The Dark Side of Chocolate,� exposes the ugly side of the chocolate industry where children in the Ivory Coast are grossly exploited in the cacao plantations. If you’re unsure of the origins of your chocolate, and the thought of indulging from the fruits of child labor abuse leaves a bitter taste in your mouth, then buy fairtrade certified chocolate.

Jewish Film Fest 2013:
A celebration of New York ... and diversity By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt San Diego’s 23rd annual Jewish Film Festival, set to screen 47 different films from 10 different countries Feb. 7-17, is looking better than ever. Since its modest beginnings in 1990, with seven films and about 40 attendees, the SDJFF has become the fourth largest Jewish film fest in the country, filling over 16,000 seats every year. Under the sponsorship of the Leichtag Foundation, films will be shown at four different venues: Garfield Theatre at La Jolla’s JCC; Reading Cinemas 14 in Clairemont; Edwards San Marcos Stadium 18; and the Dove Library in Carlsbad. The new Festival Chair is Saundra Saperstein, who has been film-connected for most of her life. She was media director of the Sundance Film Festival for 18 years, then marketing director for the State of

Since moving here four years ago, she has been involved with the SDJFF, rising from focus groups to last year’s festival co-chair. She’s also on the board of San Diego’s Italian Film Festival. This year, she noted, as the selection committee was choosing the films, so many seemed to have something to do with New York that

Asked which films were her personal favorites, she at first demurred. “I love them

all,” she said. “When my La Jolla cousin asked me what films to see, I went down the list, and found myself checking every one!” Then she came up with a short list that, like the festival itself, is interesting
and diverse, including two documentaries, an unusual family drama, and an “adorable” romantic comedy. Saundra’s Big Four 1) “Melting Away”: A moving drama from Israel
about a transgender teen rejected by her parents who finds a way back into the family. (Showing Feb. 9, 13, 16) 2) “The Brother who sent the Rosenbergs to the Electric Chair”: A different perspective on the infamous case of the couple executed for spying in 1953. (Feb. 12 and 13) 3) “Ordinary Miracles: the Photo League’s New York”: The rise and fall of an organization which was, from the 1930s through the early ’50s, the hub of documentary photography. The co-directors will be present at the screenings. (Feb. 13 and 14) 4) “Paris-Manhattan”: This story of a single woman enthralled by her fantasy of Woody Allen is the first feature film from a French writer-director so enthralled by Allen’s movies that she became a filmmaker herself.

Barry Edelstein joins Old Globe Theatre as artistic director By Diana Saenger Barry Edelstein recently arrived at The Old Globe Theatre as its new artistic director, bringing with him a vast resume of professional accolades. He said he’s excited to be at The Globe, and expressed much enthusiasm about his upcoming projects at a meet-and-greet event with local theater critics. The Globe’s board of directors announced Edelstein’s appointment on Oct. 17. A nationally-recognized director, producer, author and educator, Edelstein will steer San Diego’s flagship arts’ institution along with new Globe Managing Director Michael G. Murphy. “It’s hard to overstate the impact of what a tremendous treasure this area (Balboa Park) is, or to think of any place in the United States that rivals this square mile in terms of the various culture organizations and vitality of the mix of people here,” Edelstein said. “This is one of the small theaters in North America that programs the breadth of

I’ve come to understand, in a deep and clear way, just what this institution means to this city and region.” Edelstein has extensive links to New York City Shakespearean Theater, which include directing The Public Theater’s Shakespeare Initiative. His book, “Thinking Shakespeare (called by New York Magazine “a must-read for actors”) was published in 2007, and his book “Bardisms:
Shakespeare for All Occasions,” was published in 2008. He was also associate producer of The Public’s 2012 Broadway production of “The Merchant of Venice,” starring Al Pacino. Much of The Globe’s programming is in place for 2013 so Edelstein is already involved in those productions. His own lineup will not start until mid-2014. He will also oversee the Shakespeare festival program and a play that he will direct. He said he plans to draw marquee
talent to those productions. “I’m hoping to find some new ways to look at Shakespeare — not just outdoors, but have it more than once a year, put some (shows) back inside the theater or tour with it,” he said. “The world premiere musical of ‘The Honeymooners’ is coming up at The Globe. We’re also working on new translations of European classics by American playwrights, such as the work I did with Steve Martin on ‘Underpants.’ I’d also like to recommit The Globe as a place to premiere new writing by important and emerging voices in theater.” Edelstein taught at The Juilliard School, NYU’s Graduate Acting Program and the University of Southern California. His other popular projects with notable actors include: “As You Like It” with Gwyneth Paltrow, “Julius Caesar” with Jeffrey Wright, “The Merchant of Venice” with Ron Leibman, a revival of Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons” and Molière’s “The Misanthrope” with Uma Thurman.

He said he’s also committed to forming a relationship with other cities, such as Los Angeles, where he already has connections, to lure prominent stage and film actors to work at The Globe. “I can say that The Old Globe will still be recognizable for what it is,” Edelstein said. “The mix may change a
little bit, the orientation a little bit, but I believe it has an obligation to the city to reach as many of its constituencies as possible.” Managing Director Michael G. Murphy said he’s delighted Edelstein is joining the staff. “His extraordinary background in contemporary plays, classics and Shakespeare, in addition to his commitment to the creation and development of new works, is a perfect match with The Globe’s history of theatrical tradition and artistic innovation,” Murphy said.

Powerful cast delivers the punch in Cygnet’s ‘Gem of the Ocean’
Let’s Review
By diana Saenger
I
t takes an especially talented cast to deliver the words and emotions August Wilson layered into his 10 plays, “The Pittsburgh Cycle,” which offers a microscopic view of American life and the real heart of mankind. The eight-member cast of Cygnet Theatre’s “Gem of the Ocean,” the first play in the series, vividly embodied Wilson’s characters with heart and power in the opening night performance. The theme of the series is the African-American experience, and “Gem of the Ocean” takes on slavery, the effects of it, and the price of living and dying.
Andrew Hull’s terrific set design of Aunt Esther’s humble abode instantly takes the audience back to 1904. The way Aunt Esther commands her staff, orders her friends around and spends most of her day in her room, would earn her the label “pampered queen,” but Esther is really a spiritual leader who offers asylum and redemption to those who need it. Brenda Phillips plays Aunt Esther with masterful ease. She has a tender manner when helping those she feels are in need, yet applies the strong tone needed to instruct her houseman Eli (Grandison M. Plelps III) and her cook and housemaid Black Mary (Melva Graham). Black Mary has a transformative arc that nicely unfolds through Graham’s performance, yet among all of Wilson’s characters with strange names, I can’t help but wonder why he chose Black Mary as a character name. Maybe it was his intention to remind the audience that the play portrays the
Eli (Grandison M. Phelps III) holds Citizen (Laurence Brown) as Aunt Esther (Brenda Phillips) offers him sanctuary in Cygnet’s ‘Gem of the Ocean.’
If you go ■ What: ‘Gem of the Ocean’ ■ When: Matinees, evenings to Feb. 24 ■ Where: Cygnet Theatre Company, Old Town Stage, 4040 Twiggs St., San Diego ■ Tickets: $29-$47
Darin Scott
■ Box Office: (619) 337-1525 ■W ebsite: cygnettheatre.com struggles between the slaves and those who are free, and that freedom is never free. Even though Eli constantly reminds anyone who dares to enter that this “is a peaceful house,” at times, Aunt Esther’s is anything but docile. The first intrusion into Esther’s peaceful home is by Citizen Barlow (Laurence Brown). He’s just made his way from Alabama to Esther’s place in Pittsburgh’s Hill District. Citizen harbors
deep sorrow over something he did and heard Esther is a cleanser of souls. Eli makes him wait several days before he can see Esther, but a quick sneak through a window for something to eat softens Esther’s heart, and she listens to his story. Brown is superb as he portrays an anxiety-ridden man scared it may be too late to save his life; a young, lonely man longing to feel the warmth of a young girl
like Black Mary, and a brave man of dignity ready to stand up and help another man find his way. That man would be Solly Two Kings (Antonio “TJ” Johnson). He’s a former slave and Underground Railroad conductor accused of a crime by Black Mary’s police officer brother, Caesar. Solly knows he must escape. Citizen agrees to accompany him, but soon returns to complete his own
assignment of redemption. That involves a spiritual journey commanded by Esther to the “City of Bones.” There’s a lot going on in “Gem of the Ocean,” but I’m not sure the production needed to run over two hours long. That said, guest director Victor Mack gives a fine showing here of commanding a talented cast and telling Wilson’s story in a way, I assume, Wilson would be proud.
Rocket scientist coming home to speak at Bishop’s Frank Tybor Courtesy
The Bishop’s School will host alumnus Frank Tybor, Class of 2003, who will discuss “SpaceX: Access to Space in the Commercial Era,” as a guest of the Shaffer Family Foundation Endowed Science Lecture Series, 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 12 at The Bishop’s School Teitelman Science Center, 7607 La Jolla Blvd. The lecture is open to the public.

‘Guard Dog,’ an Oscar-nominated animation short by Bill Plympton
‘Grasshoppers,’ an Oscar-nominated animation short by Bruno Bozzetto A still from the Academy Award-winning ‘Bunny’ by Chris Wedge, who also directed the feature film ‘Ice Age.’ Courtesy Photos
FROM ANIMATION, B1 there will be a variety of animation styles featured to reflect the evolution of animation — including traditional hand-drawn cell animation, clay model 3-D animation, puppet animation and computergenerated animation. Some of the films Decker said he’s most excited to screen include “Paths of Hate” from Poland, and “Loom” from Germany, because they feature “extraordinary technique in animation like nothing I’ve ever seen before.” Also garnering some excitement is “Mona Lisa Descending a Staircase,” which Decker called “an absolute stunning, beautiful, masterpiece of work.” It features clay on glass. Pointing out their “impeccable track record” for bringing in good films, Decker said it was at past Festivals of Animation that viewers first saw the works of Andrew Stanton, the director of “Finding Nemo;” John Lasseter, director of the “Toy Story” franchise and early pioneer of computergenerated animation; and early works by Tim Burton. This year, two celebrity directors will make an appearance, complete with question-and-answer session
and autograph opportunities. Those attending the festival on Feb. 9 and 10 will have the chance to meet David Silverman, director and producer of “The Simpsons” and “The Simpsons Movie.” Silverman, who admits being fine with the fanaticism he’s often met with, said he was happy and honored to be attending. “I hope to bring (to the
festival) enthusiasm for the Simpsons, some laughs, answer burning questions, evade burning questions and perhaps offer further insight as to how we make the show.” Another animation innovator, Rich Moore, director of the Oscarnominated “Wreck-It Ralph,” will attend on March 1 and 2.

Realtor Vicki Robb receives McNaughtDavis/Knox Award Vicki Robb, of the Willis Allen Real Estate’s La Jolla office, received the McNaughtDavis/Knox Award from the La Jolla Real Estate Association. This REBA award was founded in 1962 to honor a Realtor who exemplifies personal integrity, community activity, salesmanship, service to the real estate profession, and cooperation with associates. The recipient is selected by a panel of peers who previously won the Vicki Robb award. Last year’s winner was Willis Allen Realtor Bob Andrews. “I am humbled by this honor and am grateful to the selection committee for seeing in me the tremendous qualities for which this award stands,” Robb said. “I will continue to work — as I have for the last 20-plus years — to uphold the values of integrity, loyalty and professionalism for the benefit of my clients.” To reach Robb, e-mail vicki@vickirobb.com or call (858) 405-9925.
