By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Town Council approved the first significant changes to its bylaws in nearly 60 years during its March 8 meeting.

The trustees voted to require that any changes to its bylaws and code of ethics be approved by a two-thirds vote, as opposed to a simple majority.

Second vice-president John Weinstein was the lone vote in favor of approving the changes via a simple majority.

By Dave Schwab The eighth annual classic car exhibition at the Cove has a new name, more sponsors, and a sharper focus this year engaging the entire community in making the show one of La Jolla’s signature events.

“We are committed to raising the bar and making this a special event for this community,” said Mike Dorvillier, committee chair of the weekend-long La Jolla Concours d’Elegance, presented by La Jolla Historical Society from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday, April 1.

“Were actually expanding the free car corral open to the public up from the Concours on the field toward Girard Avenue,” said Trip Bennett, the historical society’s interim director. “We’ve really done a lot this year to make sure we’re involving the community, including creating a great partnership with the La Jolla Village Merchants Association.”

“I think six years is a good suggestion,” said Bylaws Committee Chairman Peter Wulff, noting that trustees can remain active in the community and on council committees during their year’s hiatus from the

The event doubles as a fundraiser for community and marine-oriented groups. New this year, is an end-of-the day Dad’s of Groms contest so kids can cheer on their parents.

Family-friendly Shores surf contest adds an element of ‘art’

By Dave Schwab Now in its 12th year, the La Jolla Shores Surfing Association’s (LJSSA’s) annual Menehune Surf Contest charity fundraiser at La Jolla Shores has grown from humble beginnings to become a signature event embracing all ages throughout the beach community.

“It’s evolved from a surf contest into a oneday festival,” said Lorraine Schmalenberger, LJSSA secretary, of the event to be held Saturday, April 28 with opening heats at 7 a.m. culminating in a 3:30 p.m. awards ceremony.

“It’s the best surf contest for menehunes (named for mythological Hawaiian dwarfs), but it’s also a way for us to showcase our surf club and raise money for charities.”

New this year will be a D.O.G. (Dads of Groms) heat at the end of the day so kids can cheer on their parents.

Supported by the community, LJSSA donates all net proceeds from the event, which

Schmalenberger said La Jolla Art Association is co-hosting and judging this year’s art contest.

The family-oriented Menehune surf contest also includes a barbecue, raffle and silent auction for kids. Local vendors and surf industry insiders also donate goodie bags, prizes and raffle and silent auction items.

Stella Maris Academic Decathlon Team is No. 1!

tella Maris Academy’s Academic Decathlon team competed in the 32nd annual diocese-wide competition and took first place, besting about 16 other teams in San Diego.

The last time the Stella Maris team took first place was in 2009. The team will now go on to the statelevel competition May 5 in Rancho Santa Margarita.

The decathlon is comprised of children in grades six through eight, who compete on subjects like Logic, Fine Arts (Art and Music), English, Literature, Science, Mathematics, Current Events, Social Studies, and Roman Catholic doctrine. Awards are given for individual and team performance.

The high scorers on the Stella Maris team include sixth-grader Madeleine Moreau, first place for Religion; seventh-grader Hamilton Allport, first place for Social Studies; and eight-grader Justin Washabaugh, second place for Math.

“The competition was intense and I’m so proud of the children’s hard work,” said team advisor Olivia Caughey.

“The amount of information that the students have to know for this event is just amazing.”

Stella Maris Academy, 7654 Herschel Ave., is a Catholic K-8 school focused on the academic, spiritual and social development of its students since 1947.

The Restylane® Injectable Gel and Perlane® Injectable Gel you know and trust are combined with a local anesthetic (lidocaine) to help reduce discomfort.a

Nasolabial folds before. a

After 3 mL of Restylane.

Individual results may vary.

In clinical studies evaluating the Restylane family of products, Restylane-L® and Perlane-L® demonstrated less discomfort at injection and up to one hour later compared to Restylane and Perlane, respectively.

The Restylane family of products includes Restylane, Restylane-L, Perlane, and Perlane-L. These products can be used individually to add volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). Ask your healthcare professional which is right for you.

Important Safety Considerations for the Restylane family of products Products in the Restylane family should not be used by people with previous bad allergies, particularly to certain microorganisms known as gram-positive bacteria, or by people with previous bad allergies to drugs that have required in-hospital treatment. These products should not be used by people with bleeding disorders. Injections should not be made anywhere except the skin or just under the skin. Restylane-L and Perlane-L should not be used by people with a known allergy to lidocaine.

Use of products in the Restylane family at the site of skin sores, pimples, rashes, hives, cysts, or infection should be postponed until healing is complete. Use of the products in these instances could delay healing or make your skin problems worse. After your treatment, you might have some swelling, redness, pain, bruising, and tenderness. This will normally last less than seven days. In rare circumstances, the doctor may inject into a blood vessel, which can damage the skin. Although rare, red or swollen small bumps may occur. If you have had facial cold sores before, an injection can cause another outbreak. To avoid bruising and bleeding, you should not use the products if you have recently used drugs that thin your blood or prevent clotting. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18 years, you should not use products in the Restylane family.

Patients should be limited to 6.0 mL per treatment. The safety or effectiveness of products in the Restylane family for the treatment of anatomic regions other than nasolabial folds have not been established in controlled clinical studies. The Restylane family of products is available only through a licensed practitioner. Complete product and safety information is available at www.RestylaneUSA.com.

From Town Council, A1 board of trustees.

“It does foster new involvement from other people to come up and volunteer,” he said, adding that it also prevents “a clique, if you will, from evolving.”

“The issue is freshness of mind, staleness of participation,” Wulff said.

The trustees spent some time wrangling over the issue of how to handle term limits for members who are appointed to fill out the remainder of a position vacated by a trustee departing before his or her term has expired.

“We don’t want to put someone in the position of having up to almost nine years when everyone else gets six,” Weinstein said.

Council president Rick Wildman added, “It’s pretty essential that we have a full number of 24 trustees, so that’s why we’ve been bringing people in to fill out the unexpired terms. They’re really taking the other person’s place, not (serving) in their own term as a trustee.”

In the end, the club voted to limit trustees terms to seven years. The proposed bylaw amendment reads, in part: “A trustee may not be nominated or elected to a term

Robert Hildt

which, if served to completion, would cause the trustee to serve more than seven (7) consecutive years.”

All three amendments were approved in a final vote, with trustee Greg Phillips voting against the changes and Mary Soriano abstaining.

“This is amazing — most groups take months to accomplish this,” Wildman said.

Annual elections The council decided to postpone its elections for another month, as candidate information and ballots were not disseminated to council members in a timely manner this month.

Ten people are running for trustee positions, including eight current members who are vying for reelection.

Previously completed ballots will be voided. A new ballot will be e-mailed to club members the Tuesday prior to the April meeting, and the results announced during that meeting.

Candidate bios: n Current trustee Ann Kerr Bache is a mother, volunteer and part-time consultant.

private sector, including a decade working with Scripps Institution of Oceanography.

She is past chair of Independent La Jolla and served two terms as president of the Stella Maris Academy Parent-Teacher Organization. n Newly installed trustee Charles Hartford, a financial advisor with Merrill Lynch, holds a bachelor’s degree from West Point academy and masters degrees in history and in diplomacy and international commerce from the University of Kentucky. He served as the Deputy United States National Military Representative to the Strategic NATO Headquarters in Mons, Belgium. n Phillip Forgione said he wants to serve another term to “enhance the quality of life in La Jolla for residents, merchants and guests” and to preserve “La Jolla’s antiquity, promoting the business community and supporting public safety.” n Current trustee Robert Hildt has served as the board’s first vice-president (his current post), president of the council’s parade foundation and as a member of the San Diego Corporate Finance Council and Latin and Asian Business Association of San Diego. n Ron Jones is an award-winning announcer and writer, known locally as “The Voice of La Jolla.” The special event company owner has been featured on radio and television. He is president of the Greater La Jolla Meals on Wheels organization and the Rotary Club of La Jolla. n Current trustee Egon Kafka operates the La Jolla Village Lodge with his “better half,” Maureen Murphy. He also serves on the board of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association. “I believe that the single most important function of the town council is to serve as a unifying voice for this community,” he said. n Realtor and business owner Yolanda De Riquer is a newly appointed trustee whose goal is to get more Hispanic people involved in community service and bring community members together to solve problems. “We need to motivate people to be a part of improving and preserving the best things

about La Jolla,” she said. n Emiliano De Riquer is the 17-yearold son of newly installed trustee Yolanda De Riquer. The La Jolla High School student aspires to breach the generation gap between older and younger La Jollans while using innovation to balance historic preservation and modernity. n Longtime resident Dyanne Marie Routh said the most important issues facing the town council are improving street conditions and having a town council member who would better represent the organization to city officials. n Financial advisor and current trustee John P. Weinstein has chaired the council’s membership committee, speakers’ series and has served on its executive committee.

He currently serves as the board of trustees’ second vice-president.

In other council news: • Board opening: Joe LaCava announced that there is a vacant seat on the La Jolla Coastal Access and Parking Board for an interested town council member to fill. Anyone interested should e-mail Rick Wildman at wildmanesq@aol.com • Walkway beautification update: Phyllis Minick and landscape architect Jim Neri gave a presentation on proposed improvements to the walkway along Coast Boulevard near the Children’s Pool, which resulted in the council lending its support to the project.

Parks and Beaches, Inc. needs to raise about $240,000 for the project, which would include a designated vending area that would move vendors back from the walkway.

“Vending and tables should only be in one location and not spread out where they are an impediment to improve pedestrian traffic, Minick said, adding, “We have every last little detail, except the money.”

Minick said Parks and Beaches is engaged in a “full-force push” to obtain funding and city approval so that they can piggyback on the

Car2Go firm pitches Bird Rock Community Council

By Dave Schwab With gas prices spiking, people are seeking convenient, less-costly alternatives to the internal combustion engine.

One practical substitute might be electrical cars.

Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) heard from David Cully of Car2Go electrical car rentals, who touted the benefits of electrical cars at the group’s March 6 meeting.

“What we do is short-term car rentals by the hour, currently within a 30-square-mile operating area, predominantly in downtown San Diego,” said Cully, noting that area presently extends as far as Pacific Beach along the coast.

“We’re starting to partner with schools, like UCSD, putting cars out for students to use,” Cully said.

Car2Go users locate their rental via their

Smartphone, computer, or by phoning a call center, or by coming across one parked on the street. They have the ability to reserve a vehicle 24 hours in advance.

There is no mandatory return time or location. The rental driver only pays for the time they use the car.

Car2Go charges 35 cents per minute, up to $12.99 per hour and a daily maximum of $65.99.

Cully said people can rent Car2Go electric vehicles and drive them in La Jolla, but must return them somewhere inside the company’s coverage area.

More than 25,000 trips have been made in 300 electrical vehicles in San Diego, according to car2go North America, which said 6,000 San Diegans signed up as members in the first 100 days of the program.

As a local La Jolla resident, I understand the complexities of insuring in our community. Allstate Insurance of La Jolla offers a complete line of personal and commercial insurance products from America’s largest insurance companies. Be confident you’re properly insured by allowing us to customize an insurance plan specifically for you or your business at a competitive price.

According to the National Institute of Health, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) costs the country more than $56 billion a year and more than 5 million Americans have a permanent need for help in performing daily activities resulting from a TBI. Survivors are often left with significant cognitive, functional, behavioral, and communicative disabilities, and some patients develop longterm medical complications. A Physical Therapist who is trained in neurological rehab can help to navigate the physical and cognitive changes and improve one’s abilities.

Ability Rehab specializes in neurological therapies, including those for TBI. Our highly-skilled therapists will develop an individualized program to improve independence and mobility over time. We incorporate exercises to improve or adapt the patient’s ability to sit, stand, and walk while maintaining balance and equilibrium. Compensatory strategies to address limitations in visual feedback may also be required, as well as targeted exercises to improve the strength of the trunk, pelvis, and lower extremities. Whether the injury happened 5 days ago or 5 years ago we can help.

n a Monday morning 13 years ago, the San Diego Union ran a picture on its front page, taken the previous afternoon by an enterprising photographer from a rented helicopter.

A favorite local sport is diving into the curl of a wave darkened by schools of harmless but impressive looking leopard sharks, as horrified tourists look on.

It was a couple of days before we all realized the swimmer in the picture was John Thiele, a lumi-

nary in my wife Lacey’s and my life these past 25 years. He died Jan. 28, leaving a space in the world so unaccustomed, so sweet it will never be filled.

John may not have known that he rescued not only our move West, but maybe our marriage.

Lacey was as drawn to Southern California winter and the ocean as we all are, but she was a Connecticut Yankee and an interior designer with a passion for early American furniture. Just as it looked like we might have to abort our California adventure, John Thiele offered Lacey a job at their family design firm. John and Ross Thiele & Son (John was the son, the 80-year-old business is now run by his equally talented daughter Elizabeth) wonderfully filled the void in Lacey’s world, turning around our retreat.

John was, nearly to the day, 20 years my senior, and many times I told him I studied him as if I was being given a look at what lay ahead, only more graceful and generous than I dared hope for myself.

Though he suffered his share of the insults of aging – skin cancers, prostate, failing joints – he was first in the studio every morning, cheerily greeting the younger designers. Always nattily dressed, never in the studio without a tie, his elegance was inborn, not studied. His children – and now grandchildren, and, for goodness sake, great-grandchildren – put John and Lavinia through their paces as strenuously as families since the ‘60s all have, and he treated each of them as a surprising miracle with gifts he hadn’t imagined and loved.

In a glass of their own

La Jolla resident opens brewery with beer-loving UCSD alumnus

By Pat Sherman Mayor Jerry Sanders was among those who stopped by Rough Draft Brewing Company’s tasting room during a soft opening March 9, pouring the brewery’s inaugural first beer and offering a toast to San Diego’s thriving craft brewing industry.

UC San Diego graduates Jeff Silver and Jon Stahley launched the new Miramar/Mira Mesa-area brewery this month, selling out their grand opening event on March 10.

The brewery’s tasting room (featuring a 50 foot-long tasting bar) is open to the public for limited hours Thursdays through Sundays, initially offering four beers, including the Eraser IPA and “What the Ale?” pale ale, as well as amber and Belgian-style blond ales.

“We’re going to have a lot of different, crazy beers here — and a lot of them will only be available in our tasting room until we see what people like,” said Jeff Silver, who began brewing beer out of his Del Mar apartment at age 22.

“Once we have some clear winners, we’re going to get started on distribution.”

Business partner and La Jolla resident Jon Stahley handles the business side of the venture.

“Even back in college I was very much a kind of quality over quantity kind of person,” said Stahley, a financial planner who is partial to Rough Draft’s amber ale.

“Generally speaking, I gravitate toward the hoppier, bitter type ales that San Diego’s known for, but I think what is so special about the amber is the roasted caramelized taste on the finish,” he said. “I think most

Jon Stahley, Mayor Jerry Sanders and Jeff Silver during a soft opening of Rough Draft Brewing Company March 9. Courtesy people overlook the finish, (which) is really what tells you most about the beer.”

Silver recalled the first few beers he ever brewed, including a honey ale which he said was “just terrible.”

“Even as a struggling kid just out of college, you couldn’t drink it, but we persevered,” he said, with a laugh.

Through the years, Silver got more serious, eventually purchasing a home in Carmel Val-

ley where he expanded his brew operation and began winning awards for his beers.

Today, Silver brews beer with his own milled barley and wheat, instead of extracts.

“There are sort of two camps,” Silver said. “I think that all-grain makes a far better beer.”

After the grain is milled, it is steeped in warm water, during which the sugars are leached from the barley.

“That’s the liquid that you move over to

your kettle and boil for an hour and add hops to — your unfermented beer,” Silver said. “Once you add yeast to it, it becomes your fermented beer.”

Silver, who just turned 40, left his job as an insurance executive to concentrate on the brewery — something Stahley and other friends had been urging him to do for years.

“I said, ‘No, no. I have kids, I have bills to pay,” he recalled.

Running up against a shortage of quality beer for his own party helped to change Silver’s mind.

“I was getting too busy to make my own beer, so I started to call breweries,” he said.

“I was struggling to find a keg of beer and I realized, something is going on here. That was the little spark or the seed that got planted. I know that I can make a good beer and I

Additional events preceding the Sunday show will include a booksigning from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 30 at Warwick’s Bookstore, as well as a guided motor tour of San Diego on Saturday, March 31, which culminates at Wisteria Cottage, 780 Prospect St. Activities promoting the Concours will also include a VIP Reception Saturday night for more than 400 car exhibitors and guests with food compliments of La Valencia, Georges, Eddie V’s and Whisknladle. Also on Saturday night, starting at 7 p.m., will be a free movie in Scripps Park, “Cannonball Run,” replete with popcorn and sponsored by Ultrastar Cinemas. “It’s just another way of giving back to the community,” said Dorvillier.

Keith Martin will return as the Concours emcee. He will present awards recognizing winners in a variety of categories.

Bennett said there will be two “really nice car collections,” including 130 to 140 classic vehicles on the field at Scripps, and another 100 cars outside the field in the freeviewing car corrals.

“The most important thing is we just keep raising the level of the car show, the quality of the entrants,” Bennett said.

Noting event sponsorship “has just been phenomenal,” Dorvillier said Wells Fargo Bank is this year’s premier sponsor. He said there are 15 or more other sponsors, many of them car dealers, including Symbolic Motor Car Company in La Jolla.

Another first for Concours is the participation of Ed Gilbertson, a high-profile judge at Pebble Beach, as Honorary Chief Judge for the 2012 La Jolla Concours. Gilbertson will join Chief Judge Dr. Cy Conrad.

“The show has taken on a life of its own and it’s all good,” Dorvillier said.

Concours proceeds benefit La Jolla Historical Society, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit dedicated to preserving La Jolla’s historical heritage, and the Monarch School, which serves children impacted by homelessness.

Did you know?

A Concours d’Elegance (from French meaning a competition of elegance) dates back to 17th century French aristocracy, who paraded horse-drawn carriages in the parks of Paris during Summer weekends and holidays. Over time, carriages became horseless and the gatherings became a competition among automobile owners to be judged on the appearance of their vehicles.

These commonly are held at automobile shows or after racing competitions. Notable Concours d’Elegances include Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este (Lake Como, Italy), Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, Meadow Brook Concours d’Elegance (Rochester Hills, Mich.)

Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, Ault Park Concours d’Elegance (Cincinnati), Keeneland Concours d’Elegance (Lexington, Ky.) and Louis Vuitton Classic in midtown Manhattan.

The Rush is on at new Bird Rock spinning center

Left: Corey Spangler with state-of-the-art stationary cycles and (right) Spangler with business partner Tim Suski. A convert to spinning a couple years ago, Spangler became an instructor then paired with Suski to come up with an improved plan for hosting group exercise. Dave Schwab photos

By Dave Schwab “The Rush” is more than just a company name for new Bird Rock business owners Corey Spangler and Tim Suski: It’s the feeling they say clients have exiting their indoor-cycling studio after a workout.

“It’s literally a natural high — they’re on a rush,” said Spangler. “People just love it.”

Added Suski, “It’s like the stoke in surfing.”

The duo claim their spinning studio at 5628 La Jolla Blvd. gives clients something they can’t get elsewhere at traditional gyms.

“There’s nothing like this in San Diego — gyms using multi-use rooms (for cycling) — because they don’t specialize in it,” said Spangler, walking into the backroom of The Rush’s loft-like, yoga-feel fitness studio that has a

room with 20 state-of-the-art cycles, recessed lighting, and a sound system customized to give clients their own personal space. “We dim it down, get you in your own zone.”

Suski said he and Spangler worked hard on their business model, which he claims is cutting edge, as well as patterned after high-profile brands, like Nike and Patagonia, that people identify with.

“Big-box gyms are kind of fading out,” he said, explaining people’s workout needs — pilates, yoga, spinning — are getting more specific.

“We fit into a special spot of that new wave of things. It’s how it’s being done.”

Suski said The Rush wants customers to be proud of associating with their brand. “We want people to say, ‘Yeah, we’re part of The

Rush community, in that group.’ We’re creating a community within a community … creating this little cycling society where everyone is friends; everyone knows each other.”

Spinning was invented in 1989 by Johnny G, a South African-born celebrity trainer, black belt martial artist, and ultra-endurance cyclist.

He saw spinning as a tool for simulating the adversities of bicycle racing in a controlled environment. He originally designed spinning to better prepare himself for the grueling Race Across America bicycle competition, but then realized it had broader appeal and application, and he began mass marketing the concept.

Spinning wears well and travels well, said Suski, claiming spinning burns more calories than running or any similar activity while being very low impact to your body.

“It’s the most efficient use of your time,” said Spangler. “And an extra advantage of The Rush is that you can reserve bike space online for classes, so there’s never a need to come early to reserve space.”

Hour-long spinning classes involve about 50 minutes of exercise with periods for rest, cooling down and stretching.

Right now there are 14 classes. Suski and Spangler would like to double that number.

“We want to fit into everyone’s schedule, no matter what you do,” said Spangler.

Suski said it’s just as much of a rush owning a spinning business as it is working out in one.

“Why wouldn’t you want to have a business where everyone’s walking out of here so pumped, and you’re only dealing with positive, energetic, motivated people?”

F

or three days, the second-graders in Cathy Blake and Spring Swaney’s classes climbed to the highest point in North America when they ascended Mt. McKinley in Alaska, found the lowest point on the continent when they located Death Valley, Calif., and walked along the continent’s longest river, the Mississippi. Their travels were made possible when The Gillispie School borrowed a 25- by 35-foot map of North America from the National Geographic Giant Traveling Maps program.

Margie Edwards, Gillispie’s director of curriculum, said she jumped at the chance to incorporate the giant map into grade-two geography studies.

A Titanic-style steamer trunk accompanied the map and included learning supplies and teacher materials, such as cards with photographs of land-

marks located throughout the continent.

“It was interesting to watch the children get their bearings as they searched for the Panama Canal, Belize’s Barrier Reef, Puerto Rico’s El Morro Fort, the Mayan Ruins in Guatemala, and Yellowstone National Park,” Edwards said. “The students were perhaps most surprised to learn that North America includes many countries beyond the United States and Canada.”

Edwards is considering other giant continent maps to enhance next year’s elementary school geography lessons because each K-6 grade level studies a different continent as a comparative foil for its standard social studies units (Grade 3-Asia, Grade 6-Africa). In this way, Gillispie students travel the globe during the K-6 years.

The San Diego County Water Authority has launched a website, mwdfacts.com, which authority representatives say is intended to provide “greater information and transparency into the powerful and secretive Metropolitan Water District (MWD) of Southern California.”

The San Diego County Water Authority is a member agency of MWD, which serves more than half of California’s population.

“MWD has too often kept critical information clouded in secrecy, misdirection and obfuscation,” said Dennis Cushman, assistant general manager of the Water Authority.

The new website will provide documents for the public and ratepayers to review.

“MWD’s finances, rates, governance, ethics and other policies need to be

discussed and debated in an open, transparent, accessible forum, not behind closed doors,” Cushman said.

John Foley, chair of MWD’s board of directors, fired back with the following statement, which read, in part: “Southern California’s water needs require cooperation among cities and communities throughout the region because of the importance of imported supplies, which account for about 50 percent of the Southland’s water.

“At times, member agencies like the San Diego County Water Authority have aired policy differences. Most member agencies, however, agree that negotiation and collaboration are essential to reach successful solutions.

This ensures that the needs of all Southern California—not just local or narrow interests—are addressed.

A ground squirrel stands motionless.

Some people call these creatures beach squirrels!

Ground squirrels become more active on the coastal bluffs

Natural La Jolla

By Kelly Stewart

Y

ou can find these furry little rodents running all over the cliffs in La Jolla, munching

on ice plants and roots, and then

disappearing into a burrow at the first sight of an approaching dog.

Mottled brown and white, California ground squirrels (Otospermophilus beecheyi) are found throughout California, and along other parts of the West Coast of the United States. They are related to chipmunks, groundhogs and prairie dogs.

Although they are able to climb trees, they prefer to take refuge in their burrows. Burrow openings are about 4-inches wide, but may extend 30 feet long and go several feet below the surface of the

ground. Squirrels live in colonies within the extensive network of burrows. They maintain a home range around their burrow and really don’t venture far from home.

Baby squirrels appear in late April or early May, having spent their early days inside the burrow within a nest. There may be as many as seven or eight young per litter, and they will emerge after about six weeks in their burrow.

Considered pests in many places because of their extensive destructive burrows and the annoying habit of eating foods that humans

are growing in their gardens, visitors to the coastal bluffs here in town enjoy watching these inquisitive little mammals. Feeding squirrels is discouraged in San Diego because they learn to accept food from humans and become nearly tame. The extra food that squirrels may get from humans also causes a population explosion with the end result being that they may need to be controlled because the burrows undermine the soil, damage plants and make hazardous holes for walking in parks and along the beach.

When ground squirrel populations are booming, they are also more susceptible to disease outbreaks (including fleas and diseases that affect humans).

Normally ground squirrels like to eat juicy green plants but they also enjoy seeds and nuts. I’ve also seen them feasting on rose petals left by wedding parties on the Wedding Bowl. Their curious ability to stand on their hind legs for extended periods of time while eating something or peering over tall vegetation makes them fun to watch.

By Lynne Friedmann Research advances at The Scripps Research Institute are the cornerstone of the new drug Surfaxin® (lucinactant), approved this month by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat infant respiratory distress syndrome. The life-threatening condition occurs when premature infants are born before their bodies are sufficiently developed to produce the lung-coating surfactant that keeps air sacs open and makes normal breathing possible.

Current treatments include mechanical ventilation or administering surfactants derived from cow or pig lungs. However, animalderived surfactants are expensive, can cause immune reactions, and cannot be produced in quantities sufficient to meet the worldwide medical need.

Scripps researchers first created a synthetic version of lung surfactant in the 1990s, mimicking a natural

Epicatechin is an antioxidant found in dark chocolate.

In the study, five profoundly ill patients had major damage to skeletal muscle mitochondria as a result of both type 2 diabetes and heart failure. This caused the patients shortness of breath, lack of energy, and difficulty walking even short distances.

Trial participants consumed dark chocolate bars and a beverage with a total epicatechin content of approximately 100 mg on a daily basis over several months. Biopsies of skeletal muscle, conducted before and after treatment, looked at changes in mitochondria volume and the abundance

Running hot, cold in the deep sea Among the many intriguing aspects of the deep sea are hydrothermal vent systems where hot water surges out from the seafloor. The deep sea also features cold areas where methane rises from “seeps” on the ocean bottom. Finding both habitats intersecting in one place would be unexpected.

But that’s exactly what researchers from the Scripps

Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego discovered during a Central America expedition. They coined the phrase “hydrothermal seep” to describe the ecosystem found in the Jaco Scar, at the Costa Rica margin where an underwater mountain is moving under a tectonic plate.

Co-existing animals in the hydrothermal seep ranged from those known to inhabit hot vents or cold seeps,

along with “foundation” species that exist in both settings. In addition, scientists also documented a large number of mysterious, previously undescribed species.

Findings appear in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B (Biological Sciences).

Students tour The Nat to learn about local ecosystems

A

Fourthgraders Tristan, Thomas and Jivan, from the San Diego FrenchAmerican School, study the skull of a dolphin on a recent visit to the San Diego Museum of Natural History.

fter studying and researching California’s ecosystems with teacher Christopher Casler-Goncalves, the two fourth-grade classes at the San Diego French-American School embarked on a field trip to the San Diego Natural History Museum in Balboa Park.

The students received a guided tour of the exhibit on San Diego’s ecosystems. Docents Chris, Rita, Carrie and Joan captured the children’s interest by sharing stories and facts about San Diego’s diverse wildlife and habitats. From the sea to the mesas and the mountains to the desert, they described the behaviors of the local critters that live on our shores and in our canyons. The students asked many questions.

“This trip is closely aligned with our science curriculum, and offers fantastic opportunities for the children to experience what they learn in the classroom in a new light,” said CaslerGoncalves.

City to apply for permit to close Children’s Pool during pupping season

By Dave Schwab The City Council voted March 12 to spend $30,000 to apply for permitting from the California Coastal Commission (CCC) to close La Jolla’s Children’s Pool to the public to protect harbor seals during the marine mammals’ Dec. 15 to May 15 pupping season.

The action was part of the Council’s consideration of how to spend the city’s higher-than-expected tax revenue, which could bring a $16.5- million surplus by the end of this fiscal year on June 30.

Bryan Pease, an animal rights activist and First District City Council candidate opposing incumbent Sherri Lightner, said the Council’s decision was the right move.

“The Council already voted to approve this in May 2010,” Pease said. “This isn’t new money they had to allocate, just money that was within the Park and Rec Department’s budget.”

Pease said “the mayor’s office

get out from underneath Pease’s lawsuit.”

Hunrichs said Pease “has found a career option in suing the city,” adding “they (the city) are trying to appease him hoping he’ll go away — but he’s not going to stop.

“The City is throwing good money after bad in it’s attempt to circumvent the coastal access requirements of the California Coastal Act and the Children’s Pool Trust.

“This $30,000 will not begin to cover the cost to the City for this attempt to bypass state law and try to close a public beach gifted to the children of San Diego in a State Tidelands Trust. The Trust requires shared use of this beach without exclusion to man or animal.”

In a separate but related matter, the Coastal Commission is scheduled to consider putting the guideline rope barrier up at Children’s Pool year-round during its July meeting in San Diego.

Guest commentary

Please keep the seals at the Children’s Pool I was recently vacationing in La Jolla with my family, and had the great fortune to watch the seals and their pups at Casa Beach, also known as, “Children’s Pool.” My children, ages 7 and 9, were delighted to watch mother and baby seals interact with each other. We were even able to see the umbilical cord, still hanging from the belly of an hour-old seal. And while my children know that seals are mammals like us, seeing the umbilical cord and watching a pup nurse was eye-opening for them.

In my 40 years of life, I have never had the opportunity to watch newborn seals. I am thrilled that my children were able to observe them, and it was definitely a highlight of our trip. We all agreed that watching the seals was in some way more special than our trip to SeaWorld, because they were seals doing what seals naturally do, as opposed to seals (or sea lions) doing what humans have trained them to do, by bribing them with fish.

I was surprised to learn that there is controversy surrounding the seals and their “takeover” of the beach. Personally, I don’t find that beach appealing, because it is closed-in, rocky, and the view is obstructed by that long concrete wall. I found La Jolla Shores to have

equally calm, gentle water for my children, plus a beautiful, expansive view.

My children were quite upset and confused to hear that the seals might be kept away from this beach, so that children like themselves could use the beach instead. Their reaction: “But that’s their home! We can go to all the other beaches! The seals need this beach for their babies!” I couldn’t agree more.

You may or may not know that the “Children’s Pool” and its resident seals are men-

tioned in many San Diego travel guidebooks, and we knew we would be visiting the seals long before we arrived in La Jolla. The seals bring travelers and their money to your beautiful town. Casa Beach offers a once-in-a-lifetime chance to witness seals, during pupping season, in the wild. I hope you realize what a treasure you have and that you will continue to protect Casa Beach and the seals.

Landscaping entrance better than signage

This A-frame sign must go!

The sign proposed for the entrance to the Village is NOT in keeping with La Jolla. Very Tacky. Use the money instead to landscape entry roads into La Jolla. La Jolla Parkway from the firehouse going east looks like the entrance to a dump with all the weeds, etc. Landscape it like the rest of the street going west. Also remove the ugly pink concrete on La Jolla Village in front of the VA Hospital all the way to Torrey Pines, and plant and landscape it like the median in front of the Marriott and the Hyatt. While you’re at it, Gilman Drive (the entrance to the University of California-San Diego) could be improved with landscaping rather than vast areas of blacktop.

And don’t forget Soledad Mountain Road. It has some planters, but could be improved a lot with more trees and plants from Garnet to La Jolla Scenic South. How about it La Jolla Town Council?

At its March 12 meeting, La Jolla’s Planned District Ordinance (PDO) Committee heard preliminary plans for a proposal to convert the former World Savings Bank at 1055 Torrey Pines Road for reuse as a Starbucks coffee shop and a Chipotle Mexican restaurant on the ground floor, with office space above.

Architect Elizabeth Valerio, speaking on behalf of Starbucks, told the committee the international chain has applied to the city for a change of use from retail to restaurant use on a 1,625-square-foot portion of the bank site, which is to include a 1,099-square-foot outdoor patio where the drive-thru window previously existed.

“There will be additional parking, 38 spaces total, calculating 5 spaces per 1,000 square feet,” said Valerio.

Starbucks is proposing a wall sign on the building, as well as another sign on an existing pylon.

Committee Chair Ione Stiegler cautioned that both signs may exceed PDO regulations, requiring Starbucks to reconsider its signage proposal.

“This is a focal point,” said PDO committee member Jennifer Van Galder about the redevelopment’s significance. “You come into town, land in La Jolla — and there’s a Starbucks.”

A couple of your editorials have encouraged La Jolla merchants to remove illegal A-frame signs. I wholeheartedly agree. This letter is just to note that Jersey Mike’s, on Herschel, has been putting a large sign not only on the sidewalk, but in the street at the corner of Herschel and Silverado. I welcome this new restaurant (and have enjoyed their delicious sandwiches), but they really should know that La Jollans don’t want these tacky signs in our beautiful village. Please, this is not the Jersey Shore.

Colonel Robert O. Porter, 77, of Pacific Beach, passed away peacefully on Thursday, March 1, 2012, surrounded by his family.

Dad lived life to its fullest and was enthusiastic about even the smallest thing.

His favorite word was “Outstanding!” Music was a huge part of his life. He loved skiing, golf, sailing, running, tennis, swimming, skydiving, camping and fishing. But most of all, he loved us.

A veteran of the U. S. Army, he spent two tours in Vietnam and served in the Gulf War. He was very active in the Mt. Soledad Memorial, San Diego Youth Symphony and La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club.

Bob is survived by his wife of 29 years, Mary; children, John, Jeff, David, and Elizabeth; and five grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his daughter, Amy. A celebration of Bob’s life will be held at La Jolla Presbyterian Church on Saturday, March 17, 2012,

at 2pm. Full military honors interment at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, he would love contributions to Wounded Warriors or the DAV. Please sign the guest book online at www.legacy.com/ obituaries/lajollalight.

UC San Diego’s national title run ends Monday night against Alaska Anchorage

T

Senior guard Chelsea Carlisle drives past Alaska Anchorage’s Sasha King in the first half of the West Regional Championship on Monday. UCSD

he fourth-ranked UC San Diego women’s basketball team saw its hopes for a national title come to an end on Monday, dropping a heartbreaking 68-63 decision to Alaska Anchorage in the NCAA Division II West Regional Championship game at RIMAC Arena.

After trailing by as many as 12 early in the second period, the Tritons rallied to within one with less than a minute to play, but ultimately fell short against a talented and determined Seawolf squad. Daisy Feder scored a game-high 22 points andChelsea Carlisle put in 17, but it wasn’t enough to keep UCSD’s magical season going.

The Tritons, who earned the

West Region’s top seed after a nearperfect regular season, see their season come to a close at 30-3.

“Right now, we’re a little shellshocked and very disappointed,” head coach Charity Elliott said. “I couldn’t have asked for a team to work harder, to commit, to giving up themselves, being selfless, putting the team first always, setting the tone every single day in practice. There’s not been one day that I don’t go down and thank the Lord that this is my team and I mean that as much now as I’ve ever meant it. I wouldn’t want to be in any other locker room.”

The Bishop’s School’s state tournament run came to a stop against Windward on Saturday, 70-31.

As for the La Jolla Country Day boys, who were making their first appearance in the Division IV state tournament, their season ended Saturday as well with a loss to Price (Los Angeles), 67-51. The boys team ended the season as the San Diego Section champions and a 21-10 record.

San Diego State men earn at-large NCAA berth, play N.C. State on Friday SDSU in NCAA Tournament for third straight season

A

fter claiming a share of its second consecutive Mountain West Conference regular-season title, No. 22-ranked San Diego State, the sixth-seeded team in the Midwest Region, opens NCAA Tournament play on Friday afternoon in Columbus, Ohio against 11th-seeded North Carolina State.

The game will be the first of four Friday games at Nationwide Arena and game time is set for 9:40 a.m.

PT. The contest will be shown nationally in high definition on truTV and is available on KOGO 95.7 FM and AM 600.

In the NCAA Tournament for a school-record third consecutive season, San Diego State owns a 26-7 record this season. The Aztecs are in the postseason for a seventh consecutive season, winning at least 20 games for a seventh consecutive season, and are currently one of seven schools in the nation to have won at least 25 games each of the last four seasons.

San Diego State, which finished as Mountain West regularseason co-champions with a 10-4 record, advanced to the championship game of the 2012 Conoco MW Championships, falling to New Mexico, 68-59 last weekend.

Junior guard Chase Tapley connected on five 3-point field goals en route to a game-high 25 points and five rebounds.

Sophomore guard Jamaal Franklin recorded his 12th doubledouble of the season with 16 points and a team-high 10 rebounds.

The Aztecs continue to be present in the national polls, spending a 12th consecutive week in The Associated Press Top 25. This week, San Diego State is ranked 22nd by the Associated Press and 23rd in the ESPN/USA Today Coaches’ Poll.

One reason for the Aztecs’ success this season has been their stellar defense. San Diego State ranks among the nation’s elite in defense as demonstrated by its national rankings in field-goal percentage defense (31st, 40.0 pct.) and fewest personal fouls (29th, 15.9). Despite starting four guards, the Aztecs are 39th nationally in rebound margin at +4.8.

San Diego State’s remarkable season caught many of the prognosticators off guard. The Aztecs lost four starters and the top four scorers off last season’s 34-3, NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 team. No national preseason publication predicted that SDSU would make the NCAA Tournament and the Aztecs were not picked to finish higher than third in the conference.

This marks the eighth Division I NCAA Tournament appearance for San Diego State and the third consecutive season the Aztecs have been part of the NCAA field. It also marks the first time in 42 seasons at the Division I level in

From UCSD, A20 week. The eighth-ranked Seawolves will square off with No. 2 Ashland University on Tuesday, March 20 at Bill Greehey Arena on the campus of Saint Mary’s University.

For UCSD, it was the backcourt duo of Feder and Carlisle shouldering the bulk of the scoring load once again as the pair of seniors combined to score 39 of the team’s 63 points. Feder finished 8-of-21 from the field, including 4-of-9 from the three-point line, while Carlisle was 7-of-15 overall and 3-of-9 from downtown. She added three rebounds and five assists.

Fellow senior Lauren Freidenberg had a strong performance in her final game as a Triton as well, finishing with 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting to go with five boards and a blocked shot.

“My heart is just breaking right now for these three right here,” Elliott said of her three departing seniors.

“They’ve just been the heart and soul of our team and our program. They led us to an unbelievable year. I’m just really, really sad for these guys.”

Trailing 40-28 less than 30 seconds into the second half, UCSD clawed its way back to within 46-43 five minutes later following back-to-back threes from Carlisle and Feder.

A Johansson basket put the visitors up 51-46 with 13:25 remaining, before Freidenberg scored on two consecutive possessions to bring the Tritons to within one.

Johansson answered with a three-point play on UAA’s next trip though, pushing the Seawolf advantage to 5450 with 9:15 to play.

The Tritons would close to within two points on three separate occasions over the next seven and a half minutes, but each time the Seawolves were able to respond.

Despite the loss, 2011-12 proved to be a banner season for the Tritons as they set a new school record with 26 straight wins, put together the best record in the history of the California Collegiate Athletic Association and spent seven straight weeks atop the USA Today/ESPN Coaches Poll.

which the Aztecs have received an at-large selection in the tournament. On the previous seven trips, the Aztecs received an automatic bid to the field.

Friday will mark the first men’s basketball game played between San Diego State and North Carolina State. The Aztecs are 1-5 against the current configuration of the ACC, posting a 56-49 win over Miami (Fla.) on Feb. 6, 1988.

The North Carolina State Game n San Diego State and North Carolina State are meeting for the first-time ever. In fact, SDSU head coach Steve Fisher has never faced the Wolfpack during his coaching career. n The NCAA second round matchup is just the seventh time San Diego State will face an ACC opponent and first since it played at Duke in 2001. n SDSU enters the NCAA Tournament with a 2-1 record when owning a higher seed. Last season as a No. 2 seed, the Aztecs defeated 15th-seeded Northern Colorado and seventh-seeded Temple in Tucson, Ariz., before falling to third-seeded and eventual national champion Connecticut in the Sweet 16 in Anaheim.

SDSU women also headed to the NCAA Tournament The San Diego State women’s basketball team earned its third NCAA tournament bid in the last four years and ninth in program history, as the 12th-seeded Aztecs will take on host and fifth-seeded LSU on Sunday at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Baton Rouge, La., beginning at approximately 4:45 p.m. PT. “Even though we know better than to buy

into any of the projected brackets, I was a little surprised in that (Baton Rouge) wasn’t even on our radar,” SDSU head coach Beth Burns said. “I thought that with the way we played this past weekend, winning all three games by double-digits, and perhaps the tradition of our program, we got bumped up a few spots into a No. 12 seed. What I do know is that we’re excited and we’ll be prepared to not only represent San Diego State, but also the Mountain West Conference.”

SDSU earned an automatic bid to the tournament, after winning the Mountain West Conference championship last Saturday in Las Vegas with a 57-43 victory over New Mexico. The Aztecs were a No. 11 seed in their most recent NCAA appearance in 2010, when they defeated No. 6 Texas and No. 3 West Virginia to advance to the Sweet Sixteen. San Diego State was tabbed a No. 10 seed in 2009, downing No. 7 DePaul before falling to No. 2 Stanford at Viejas Arena.

The Aztecs will meet the Tigers for the first time in school history and own a record of 3-2 against current members of the Southeastern Conference. SDSU’s last meeting versus an SEC squad came in 2010, when it scored a 66-55 home victory over Auburn. The program is 0-1 all-time against SEC schools in the NCAA championships, falling at Georgia back in 1993.

The winner of the SDSU-LSU game will play the winner of the No. 4 Penn State vs.

No. 13 UTEP game on Tuesday, March 20, beginning at 6:30 p.m. (PT) for the chance to advance to the Sweet 16 and a spot in the Kingston (R.I.) Regional, March 25 and 27.

Eugene O’Neill classic ‘Anna Christie’ opens at The Old Globe

By Diana Saenger Eugene O’Neill’s acclaimed drama “Anna Christie,” is a window on the life of Anna Christopherson, a young woman who goes looking for her estranged father, Chris Christopherson, 15 years after he abandoned her to live with relatives.

When she finds her father, now an old sailor who runs a barge and drinks a lot, Anna also meets Mat, and the two fall in love. But will Anna’s unrevealed past become the barrier that breaks them apart?

Theater patrons can revisit O’Neill’s masterful work in The Old Globe’s revival, directed by Daniel Goldstein, and running through April 15.

The play won the 1922 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

(And later, the 1993 Drama Desk Award for Best Revival of a Play and the 1993 Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play.)

Austin Durant (“Death of a Salesman,” “Othello”) auditioned for the role of Mat. He received his B.A. from Temple University and his M.F.A. from Yale School of Drama, and was fresh off performing in the film “War Horse,” and ready for a change.

“Even though the language is a beast, this role resonated with me,” Durant said. “Mat is a big feeler, has such pathos and is so passionate. He kind of operates behind a mask, but as things start to unravel about Anna, that persona begins to drop away. The story functions on dramatic irony.

On Halloween of last year, the band released its first fulllength CD, “Soulidify,” which includes a guest appearance

by San Diego’s songwriting elder statesman, Steve Poltz

(of The Rugburns). The band’s music — including the tracks “Can You Dig It?” and “Trouble” — has been played on local radio stations 91X, 94/9 FM and 102.1 FM. Though Neveready includes trumpet, sax and trombone, they don’t relish being pigeonholed as a ska band.

Their music is a danceable

amalgam of rock, soul, jazz and punk — with classic and modern ska underpinnings holding it all together.

“I think our sound definitely has matured in a big way,” said Christian, the band’s guitarist, who also played sax in La Jolla High’s jazz band.

Christian music fans will welcome John Angotti to All Hallows Church

By Pat Sherman Contemporary Christian recording artist John Angotti will bring his high-energy message of hope and healing to La Jolla when he performs at All Hallows Catholic Church, 7 p.m. Monday, March 26.

The charismatic, constantly-touring pianist and songwriter has performed at Carnegie Hall and for Pope Benedict XVI. “If you’re involved in Christian music, he’s the Billy Joel, he’s the Elton John — the man at the piano who can change your life,” said

Cindy Bosh, All Hallows’ director of stewardship.

Angotti will make the trek to San Diego following his performance at the Los Angeles Religious Education Conference at the Anaheim Convention Center, where Bosh first saw him perform. She says the concert was a transformative experience for her.

“You walk out and are a different person,” she said. “He just reaches that deep down inside.”

Cluster Association presents film about pressure on teens to excel

By Sharon Jones An ambitious 13-year-old gets a bad grade on a test.

She is devastated, as many high-achieving kids would be. Her response to the poor grade is extreme. She takes her own life.

This girl’s tragic story is among the many real-life examples of stressed-out teens explored in the documentary, “Race to Nowhere,” which will be shown at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, March 22 in Parker Auditorium at La Jolla High School. The La Jolla Cluster Association will host the presentation.

The film will be followed by a panel discussion. Middle school and high-school students are welcome to attend.

Experts say students are experiencing more stress and anxiety than ever before. At the root of much of the stress is the intense competition to get into toptier universities.

“It’s far more competitive to get into universities now than it was for us,” said Kristee Beres, a clinical psychologist who has two teenage boys, one at La Jolla

The film ‘Race to Nowhere’ examines the dark side of America’s achievement culture.

High and one at Muirlands Middle School. “They talk about the academic pressure. They worry about studying. There is not a lot of free time. It is a grind.”

But the pressure on today’s

teens extends beyond academics. Parents and teachers point to other observed concerns: the recession has increased the financial stress on families, college tuition is way more expensive than

it used to be, sexual activity can have life-threatening health consequences, and class schedules have less room for electives that might provide an emotional boost.

Furthermore, larger class sizes mean that teachers have less interaction with teens, and high school counseling staffs have been crippled by budget cuts.

Research shows that stress damages every kind of cognition that exists, including memory and executive function, motor skills, immune response and ability to sleep. Studies also show that insufficient sleep causes difficulties in school, such as discipline problems, sleepiness in class and poor concentration.

Organizes hope the film, “Race to Nowhere,” will inspire families to have conversations about stress and academic pressure.

Parents set examples There are lots of things parents can do to reduce the amount of stress on children.

The first thing is to look in the mirror, said Ruth Sucato,

If you go ■ What: ‘Race to Nowhere,’ 85 minutes, PG-13, a controversial film by Vicki Abeles that shows the dark side of high achievement. Abeles is an ex-Wall Street lawyer and mother of three, who turned filmmaker in 2007.

■ When: 6:30 p.m. Thursday, March 22 ■ Where: La Jolla High School, Parker Auditorium, 750 Nautilus St. ■ Tickets: $10 in advance, $15 at the door (if available) ■ Source: rtnlajollahighschool.eventbrite.com ■ About the Film: racetonowhere.com ■ About La Jolla Cluster Association: lajollacluster.com a clinical psychotherapist.

“Parents are under as much stress as the child,” Sucato said. “We, as parents, have to learn to live our lives well, not just for ourselves, but as role models.

How do kids learn? They learn by watching us.”

Beres agreed. “Parents need to model how to manage stress from the very basics — a healthy diet — what to eat and what not to eat,” she said. “I have teenagers in my office who are having 5-6 cups of caffeine a day.

That’s going to interfere with their sleep patterns.”

Parents also need to focus

on what their long-term goal is for their children, which is usually that they grow up to be happy, successful adults, Sucato said.

With this in mind, parents need to encourage and support, not criticize and pressure, she said.

“In our need to have our children succeed, we sometimes forget that they are people with their own life paths,” Sucato said. “Our job is to help them find those paths.”

To help kids discover their destinies, parents should

SEE TEENS, B3

www.lajollalight.com FROM TEENS, B2 help teens identify their strengths and encourage them to deploy those strengths when tackling difficult assignments, said Susan Wais, a psychologist who leads parent-education classes. “Deploying a strength when undertaking a task enables a teen to be more engaged in the task, therefore enjoying it more,“ she said.

For example, a teen-ager in the process of applying to college who is strong in curiosity, can be taught to use this strength to research the colleges he or she is applying to in order to make sure the application process goes as seamlessly as possible, Wais said.

Another way parents can reduce stress on teens is to set boundaries at home, Beres said. Parent must make it clear that they are the bosses. There should be known rules, and rewards and consequences for behavior.

“I think a lot of people are afraid of their teens,” said Beres, whose three sons are 16, 13 and 9. “Yes, they are going to be mad at you. But you are not here to be their friend.

You are here to be their parent.”

La Jolla Cultural Partners

Handling bad grades Parents should, of course, be there to provide a counterbalance if a teen has a major setback, such as a bad grade. If a teen gets a bad grade, he or she needs to understand that it is just that — just a bad grade and no more, Wais said.

“It is not a reflection of capabilities across the board,” Wais said. “ It is not the end of an educational career. It is just a bad grade.

Teaching teens to think accurately about events will enable them to diminish anxiety and thus experience less depression. “

■P rovide emotional support and guidance.

■ Set clear boundaries.

■ Have a behavior plan in place, with agreed upon rewards and consequences.

■ Have their friends over to the house.

■ Help your teen recognize his/her strengths and deploy them in ways that will facilitate his/her work.

■ Set a curfew on screen time and enforce it so teens get enough sleep.

■ Model a healthy lifestyle, limit caffeine.

A parent might also point out that the teen had good grades in other subjects, or that he/she can get help studying for the next test, or that he/she doesn’t have to have good grades in every subject.

“There are a myriad ways to think about getting a bad grade that allow a teen to cope more effectively,” Wais said.

TRUE OR FALSE? Girl Scouts of the USA celebrated its 100th birthday on March 12.

True. Juliette “Daisy” Gordon Low assembled 18 girls from Savannah, Ga., on March 12, 1912, for a local Girl Scout meeting. She believed that all girls should be given the opportunity to develop physically, mentally, and spiritually. With the goal of bringing girls out of isolated home environments and into community service and the open air, Girl Scouts hiked, played basketball, went on camping trips, learned how to tell time by the stars, and studied first aid. Within a few years, Daisy’s dream for a girl-centered organization was realized. Today, Girl Scouts of the USA has a membership of more than 3.2 million girls and adults. — Girl Scouts

apanese restaurants in San Diego County run the gamut from teriyaki joints to super buffets, and in between the mix is a growing wave of sushi lounges. Zenbu in La Jolla Village is among the places that helped make sushi bars become hot spots for cool atmosphere and exotic cuisine.

Opened in 2000 by La Jolla resident Matthew Rimel, Zenbu (which means “all” in Japanese) aims to be the all-in-one spot as a restaurant, sushi bar and cocktail lounge.

“We invite clientele to come here to enjoy their meals and have a dynamic experience, as opposed to most other Japanese restaurants in San Diego that have you get in, get your food, and get out,” said Nicole Scalese, general manager. “We’re much more geared for the full experience, having a cocktail, enjoying conversations, and enjoying a fine meal, too.”

Zenbu opens at 5 p.m. daily and sets the lounge atmosphere mood with dim lighting, lit candles on wooden tables, bamboo accents, Asian-inspired decor, and eclectic

appetizers when seeking a sushi alternative with Japanese flair is the Hot Volcanic Rock. A smooth, lava rock is heated 400-degrees, then presented on the table where guests place thin-sliced prime sirloin on the rock. The beef literally sizzles on the steaming-hot rock, cooks within seconds and is served with a dipping sauce made from citrus ponzu and sesame oil.

Zenbu recently added new items to its menu, like ramen and udon noodles, and a variety of small plates which are safe for non-adventurous diners, but still prepared with a gourmet twist. New, hot entrees include Miso-Glazed Black Cod served with bok choy and pickled vegetables, and Steamed Halibut with Asian vegetables and a black bean-soy glaze.

For something on the exotic side with a big “wow” factor, try the Crispy Red Snapper or Local Rockfish. A fresh-caught fish is lightly dusted with potato starch, then fried to a crackling crisp, and served whole — head to tail — with ponzu and sweet green-chili sauce.

or all you hibernophiles out there — Irish lovers, of whom we have 40 million in this country — join in the fun. St. Paddy’s Day on Saturday, March 17 provides an annual excuse for kickin’ up your heels, doing the Irish jig, and having a grand old hooley at home or your favorite pub.

Warm the cockles of your heart with a steamy cup of Peppermint Mocha Frappuccino or immune-boosting powerhouse Green Tea at Starbucks. Whet your whistle with a Shamrock Shake at Mickey D’s.

Edgy bars are whipping up green martinis — gin- or vodka-based, blended with cucumber and pickle juice or spinach and arugula for an anti-oxidant oomph. Classic Irish coffee is served in stemmed glasses.

Try Irish Italian fare with pesto and spinach pasta or a St. Patrick’s pizza topped with green peppers, green olives and onions, chopped broccoli, Brussels, kale or chard.

■ Method Preheat oven to 300º F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter until fluffy and whipped. Beat in the sugar and add the salt. Gradually add the flour, 1/3 cup at a time until well blended.

Turn out the dough on a floured board and roll out 1/4-inch thick. Using cookie cutter of your choice, cut out dough, and transfer to cookie sheets, spaced 1-inch apart. Bake until cookies start to turn golden, about 20-25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. These can be stored in an airtight container for 3 days.

Historical Society kicks off spring lecture series

By Ruth Varonfakis a Jolla was a different place during World War II — camouflaged buildings, gun turrets dotting hillsides, and residents cultivating their own vegetables in Victory Gardens.

Concurrent with its very popular exhibition of the war years, “Homefront La Jolla,” the La Jolla Historical Society will present its spring lecture series, titled “The La Jolla Homefront During World War II” beginning at 5 p.m. Saturday, March 17 in Wisteria Cottage, 780 Prospect St. Architect and resident of La Jolla during WW II, Robert Mosher, will join speakers Eugene Alfaro, a historian on food production in WW II; Mildred Lee Bell, a retired educator who attended La Jolla High during the war years, and retired educator and actress Dorothy Haven, whose husband trained at Camp Callen (now Torrey Pines Gliderport and Golf Course).

The series will continue with “Science & Technology on the Homefront,” at 5 p.m.

Saturday, April 7, featuring noted oceanographer and U.S. Army veteran Walter Munk. The discussion will cover the scientific innovations sparked by the

The series will wrap up with historian Susan

Each lecture costs $15 for Society members, $20 for the public. For more information or to make reservations, call the La Jolla

FROM Neveready, B1 “We started off listening to a lot of bands and taking after what some might call this sort of new wave of ska music,” Christian said.

“That was sort of the thing to do if you had a band and a horn player — the logical progression.”

As time passed and the band added and dropped members, they decided straight-up ska wasn’t their bag, noted Christian, who says the band aspires to convey a diversity of sound and style similar to that of The Clash.

“The Clash uses multiple styles on the same album,” he said. “It’s really hard to pin down what genre they are.”

Drummer Declan Halloran, whose father is the legendary San Diego DJ, Mike Halloran,

The Neveready Burrito ■ Two rolled tacos are wrapped inside a burrito with bacon, beans, cheese, guacamole and sour cream. Available at Don Carlos Taco Shop, 737 Pearl St., La Jolla. ($1 from every burrito sold goes to the band.) said his dad offered the band a lot of sound advice, first and foremost to try using horns in a way that reaches beyond the radiosaturating ska of bands like No Doubt and Real Big Fish.

“My dad kind of helped us, saying, ‘Try to branch out and … become a band that people will want to hire to play at a party,” Declan said.

As the son of a popular alternative-music radio DJ,

Declan got to experience firsthand a bevy of bigname bands that had a profound influence on the way he perceived the role of a band onstage, including The Flaming Lips, The Specials, Social Distortion and San Diego’s Rocket from the Crypt.

“One of the things we took away from a lot of bands (like that) is that we all pretty much dress the same way

on stage,” said Declan, who honed his chops drumming with Matt Lynott at La Jolla Music. “It gives the appearance that we’re like a gang on stage. We’re not just a bunch of guys up there.”

Declan recalled being heckled for Neveready’s unified sartorial front during a show at the Electric Ladyland in Ocean Beach.

“Some people were hassling us because we all dressed up in skinny ties and white shirts, mocking us, like, ‘Hey, two-toned wannabes,’” he said.

Though the band feared they might be booed off stage, Declan said it was one of their best shows to date.

“We went up there and we absolutely freakin’ killed it,” he said. “It was just kind of a little victory.”

Another useful thing Declan said his father taught him — besides avoiding payto-play shows like the plague — is not to bore audiences with rambling monologues.

“He told us, basically, nobody cares if you just wrote this song or if it’s on your last album — unless, of course, you’re Bono and U2,” Declan said. “Just play the song, say thank you and be done with it.”

Neveready’s CD, cut at White Horse Recorders with engineer Aaron Swanton, is laced with sound effects and textures that make the disc a richer listening experience, from a sample of the

“Being in the studio is really where you find out what your band is made of,” said Christian, who is studying political science at UC Berkeley. “Any discrepancies in sound and any issues that you might not have noticed while practicing or playing a show become blatantly obvious when you’re recording. … I think the more time you spend recording your own songs, the better you are at writing songs in the future.”

Though Christian, Patrick, and most of the other members are off at college (Declan is in his senior year at La Jolla High), Neveready

Rancho Bernardo

is holding steady and eager to jam whenever they’re all together in San Diego.

Between rehearsals, they work on songs and stay connected via Skype.

“We definitely want to continue this for as long as we can, but we obviously have our heads in the right place,” said Declan, who hopes to study audio production at UC San Diego.

Neveready recently returned from a mini tour — its first — playing a fraternity house party at University of Southern California and a park near Cal Poly with their trusty generator.

“It was a good learning experience,” Declan said.

“We realized that we really have to keep ourselves wellrested and healthy. … It really is like your job.”

Though the band intends to forge on, it won’t be as easy as it was when they all attended La Jolla High together, and word of mouth could help pack a venue.

“Our friends were definitely behind us,” Christian said.

“The students at La Jolla High did a huge amount for us.”

Neveready also includes Patrick Hallahan (tenor sax), Kody Knode (trumpet), Jay Sanchioli (bass), Adam Vickers (trombone), Mike Hom (tenor sax) and guest rapper, Kwamé Badu. Their CD is available on iTunes and Spotify or by e-mailing sdneveready@gmail.com

www.lajollalight.com FROM Angotti, B1 Mountains of West Virginia, Angotti belted out his first tune at age 4 when he sang the hymn, “The Church’s One Foundation.”

He went on to study piano and served as lead singer of a Navy rock band that covered everything from Journey to The Temptations.

The music missionary said he strives to help people develop an understanding of God through everyday life events.

“Most people have no idea; they can’t connect the story of their everyday life to the story (of God),” he said. “Everything is sacramental, because it all comes from God.” All Hallows’ musical director Jennifer Michael said Angotti has a knack for inspiring teenagers while appealing to older audience members.

“He doesn’t alienate their grandparents or their parents,”

Michael said Angotti also works to highlight the role of men in the church.

“That’s kind of big for him because a lot of men are afraid to show their faith,” she said.

In his music, Angotti likens freewill to a paintbrush.

“We’re all handed a paintbrush,” he said. “What are you going to do with it?

What kind of painting are we making of our life?”

The concert will be one of the first places fans can purchase Angotti’s new CD, which he characterized as a mix of liturgical, contemporary Christian and mainstream crossover tunes.

Though he sometimes plays acoustic shows while traveling, Angotti will be backed by local musicians for the All Hallows show, including a drummer, bassist and electric guitar player.

Beethoven and Stravinsky symphonies will be keystones in ‘The Classicist’ concert From Symphony Reports The La Jolla Symphony & Chorus will perform Beethoven, Mozart and two works by Stravinsky, March 17-18, in its fourth concert of the “Stravinsky Circus!” season.

Music Director Steven Schick will lead the orchestra in this concise and evocative program with the idea of classicism as its recurring theme. The program begins with the “Overture to The Marriage of Figaro,” composed by the greatest classicist of them all — Mozart.

Next is Stravinsky’s most classical work, his “Symphony in C,” modeled after Beethoven’s “Symphony No. 1 in C Major.”

Beethoven’s first symphony concludes the program.

In between, guests will hear the influence of 20thcentury popular culture in Stravinsky’s jazz-infused “Ebony Concerto,” written for clarinet soloist and Woody

Curt Miller is soloist.

Mozart’s comic opera, “The Marriage of Figaro,” was composed in 1786 and based on a play that satirized the aristocracy. From the first instant, when this music stirs to life, to its sudden explosions of energy, the overture delights all who hear it, and it is often played as a concert opener.

Stravinsky composed “Symphony in C” between 1938 and 1940. Stravinsky had been diagnosed with

tuberculosis, and he lost his wife, daughter, and mother to illness in 1938 and 1939.

The first two movements of his symphony were written in France and Switzerland, before the political climate in Europe forced Stravinsky to emigrate to the United States in 1940, where he completed the third and fourth movements.

Stravinsky distinguished between the European and the American movements, particularly in differences to

Whereas the first two movements exhibit the influences of Beethoven and Haydn, Stravinsky said that the last two movements would not have occurred to him “before I had known the neon glitter of the California boulevards from a speeding automobile.”

Rotary ‘swims’ toward the goal of eradicating polio

L

a Jolla Sunrise Rotary is one of two local San Diego Rotary Clubs that organized and participated in a global Swimarathon in La Jolla on Feb. 25 to raise money to help eradicate polio.

Barbara Held coordinated the early morning swim with Steve Cross, La Jolla Sunrise Rotary secretary.

Participants were asked to swim a minimum of 100 yards in the Pacific Ocean during the appointed hour.

A total of 88 Rotary Clubs worldwide participated in this signature event. Locally, 84 swimmers, 1 dog, and some 20 teens from The Arch Academy, braved the cold, dark Pacific Ocean to swim the course for polio and then enjoyed post-swim hot towels, muffins, donuts, coffee and hot coco. At the end of the swim, everyone adjourned to Papalulu’s Restaurant for a breakfast hosted by owner Nanci Kirk.

La Jolla Sunrise Rotary swimmers included Jim Poirier, Bill Wildrick, Jeff Wilbur, Coolley Carley and Rick Wildman. Seven kayakers navigated the course for safety purposes.

The global Swimarathon’s aim was to get the largest number of swimmers in the water (any water venue) at one time and potentially set a new Guinness World Record while raising money for the Rotary Polio Plus Campaign, now in its final year. The current record

In 1985, there were 350,000 cases of polio worldwide. Due to the efforts of Rotary International, in 2010, the number dropped to 1,349.

With the help of a substantial gift from the Melinda and Bill Gates Foundation, the following

year, there were only 358 cases in four counties. By the end of 2012 Rotary’s goal is to have eradicated polio worldwide.

Who loves Lucy? Why, it’s George! in The Old Globe Theatre’s merry musical ‘A Room with a View’

Let’s Review

By diana Saenger

S

pring is the air and so is romance for Lucy Honeychurch in the charming new musical, “A Room with a View,” premiering at The Old Globe Theatre in Balboa Park.

Creative spark envelopes the production, from the incredible voices and original music by Jeffrey Stock and Marc Acito to the beautiful costumes and exquisite set designs.

While many will associate this title with James Ivory’s 1985 film, this musical with its impressive book by Marc Acito, is based on E.M. Forster’s

1908 novel. Acito’s update about a young girl’s fantasy of her engagement to a man of position feels neither forced nor dated.

When the curtain rises Ephie Aardema is spending a summer in Italy with her cousin and chaperone Charlotte Bartlett. Ephie is in a dream state because, although she has never met him, she’s engaged to the affluent but pretentious Cecil Vyse (Will Reynolds). She dances and prances about, singing songs of her hotel room, “A Room With A View,” and her fantasies about life with Cecil “Ludwig and I.” Charlotte and Lucy are soon amid a host of other characters, including the stuffy Reverend Beeber (Edward Staudenmayer), tour guide and wannabe novelist Miss Lavish (Gina Ferrall), the bell hop and Italian lover Albert (Glenn Seven Allen), and his love, Ragazza (Jacquelynne Fontaine). But it’s George

George Emerson (Kyle Harris) tries to woo Lucy Honeychurch (Ephie Aardema) in the musical ‘A Room with a View’ at The Old Globe Theatre. Henry DiRocco Emerson (Kyle Harris) and his father (Kurt Zischke) who are visiting the area that become most

significant in Lucy’s life.

George falls in love with Lucy, but she isn’t drawn to his care-free, simple and less

affluent life that she’s sure to never experience with Cecil Vyse. Ultimately, Lucy’s journey moves from gaiety to tough decisions about who she should spend her life with.

The set and music makes up for any lapse of trying to keep up with all the characters in the story. The images of postcards from the area that frame the stage, and also appear in the sets designed by the Globe’s technical director Ben Thoron, transport the audience well into the fantasy. They are especially essential when in Act Two, the story takes place in Surrey, England.

The scenic designs by Heidi Ettinger amaze all the way through the show, as do the moving floors that unveil a river and a pond where (actual nude) men jump in.

Director Scott Schwartz does a commendable job with this musical. Performances are great, but it’s also

If you go ■ What: Musical premiere of ‘A Room with a View’ ■ When: Matinee, evenings, through April 15 ■ Where: The Globe Theatre, 1363 Old Globe Way, Balboa Park ■ Tickets: From $39 ■ Box Office: (619) 234-5623 ■ Website: TheOldGlobe.org the actors’ beautiful voices that lead this show driven by songs.

Aardema plays the charming young romantic Lucy to a fault. Harris is equally amusing and determined to assure Lucy he is the one for her. Both of their voices are incredible and only part of the cornucopia of entertainment awaiting those who see this show.

Artist dedicates a sculpture to San Diego Jewish Academy

W

orld-renowned Mexican sculptor José Sacal dedicated his sculpture “First Step,” to the San Diego Jewish Academy, 11860 Carmel Creek Road, on March 7, courtesy of Jacobo and Hermosa Farca Foundation.

The gift was facilitated by the collaborative efforts of WIZO-Tijuana San Diego Organization, KEN Jewish Community and Latin American Community of San Diego.

Sacal said his sculpture is to honor all the families who uprooted themselves from other countries and made a new life in San Diego.

San Diego Jewish Academy has families

from all over the world, including Mexico, South Africa, Israel, Russia, Peru, Argentina and China.

Sacal said he believes children of all ages should have the opportunity to be exposed to art and dedicated “First Step” in their honor as they move through the various stages of child development.

Sacal’s work has been interpreted as surrealism, “a sandbox for the subconscious mind.” His art is “essence,” according to critics, because it arrives from the depths of his feelings expressed through the beings he creates.

Photographer hosts benefit for cardiovascular institute Photographer Diane Dammeyer will hold an art exhibition from 4:30 to 6 p.m. on Wednesday, March 21 at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla, Tippett Hall, Schaetzel Center, 9888 Genesee Ave., to benefit the Scripps Prebys Cardiovascular Institute.

The event will include wine, hors d’ oeurves, complimentary valet parking and the Dammeyer landscape collection.

To RSVP, call Vanessa Cook at (858) 678-6132. To view the artist’s work, visit dianedammeyer.com ‘Reflections’ by Diane Dammeyer (inset)

REAL ESTATE

REBA members say now is the time to market for La Jolla real estate From REBA Reports It appears from local REBA real estate agents that the market is experiencing an uptick in activity. At the same time, the inventory in La Jolla is at an all time low. Along with these factors interest rates are also at an all-time low.

Rental properties are experiencing an increase in rates as the rental inventory is snapped up.

Could it be the snow back East? La

Jolla’s gorgeous weather? The Baby Boomers scaling down? The attractive schools in La Jolla? People tired of waiting for the right time? Foreign investors? The list goes on outlining the reasons the local market is starting to experience more activity.

Local REBA (Real Estate Brokers Association) brokers get together to discuss all of these factors, plus new listings, buyer needs, and market conditions

every Wednesday morning at a REBA meeting.

If you plan to buy or sell in the near future, make sure you have picked an experienced REBA agent. REBA agents hear and share unique details concerning properties and market conditions.

REBA is here to serve the La Jolla Community. Give them a call if you have any questions or comments at (858) 454-6126.

Prudential California welcomes Tina Batiz

business in 1987, as an assistant for a title company and escrow firm. A licensed notary public, she has also worked as a signing agent for mortgage loans and as a customer service representative.

“I love working with the public,” says Batiz, “and I have always enjoyed helping people.”

Recognizing the importance of client satisfaction, Batiz says her decision to join Prudential was motivated by the company’s commitment to facilitate the success of its agents. She com-

mented that, “Prudential’s training curriculum is second to none, and the company’s marketing programs and technology will ensure that I can effectively serve the interests of my clients.”

Batiz attributes the success that she achieved in her previous career to her attention to detail, organizational skills and focus on listening carefully to people.

Reach Batiz through Prudential California Realty’s La Jolla office, at (951) 692-2306, or by email at TinaBatiz@prusd.com

Nicki Marcellino, manager of Prudential California Realty’s La Jolla office, announced that Realtor Tina Batiz has joined her team. “Tina’s diverse experience in real estate is a tremendous advantage to her clients,” Marcellino said, “because it allows her to provide them with an insider’s perspective about every aspect of their transaction.”

ALExAndRA GERmOn

How long have you worked in Real Estate? I have been licensed since 2001 and have been selling real estate since 2006. From 2001 to 2006, I worked on developing income properties.

What is your specific area of expertise? My area of expertise is short sales. I help prevent foreclosures & negotiate with banks. Not all homeowners know that if they can’t afford their payments and are facing foreclosure, they may actually have equity in their home and be able to sell it for a profit.

What do you love about La Jolla?

I love to take walks on La Jolla Shores Beach. I love the people and the Village, shops & restaurants.

What sets you apart from the crowd? I’m very personable and easy to work with. I have a masters degree in counseling. It helps because the majority of my sellers are in distress and don’t want to sell, but have to. It’s a very stressful time for most people in this situation, and I help make it more comfortable and easier for them.

What’s one thing you hope to achieve this year? I hope to help as many people as I can this year.
