Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force members turn out for a protest in front of La Jolla’s post office on Saturday, April 21 before hitting the Village streets to plead their case for saving the community’s 77-year-old institution. Inset: Janet Evans wears a protest T. Dave Schwab

Postal Service to hear community protests By Dave Schwab Don’t fail to help save your mail. At today’s 6 p.m. United States Postal Service (USPS) meeting at the Cuvier Club, 7776 Eads Ave., residents will air their concerns over the plan to sell the La Jolla Post Office building at 1140 Wall St. and relocate its services elsewhere in the Village. This is the lone, face-to-face meeting between the community and USPS, which will present its case for selling and moving La Jolla’s Wall Street post office tonight. It is also an opportunity for residents to argue for keeping the building as it is, where it is. The Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force was formed after the USPS announced in January it was considering relocating its La Jolla facility. Among other things, the group has launched a protest petition drive, held a public informational meeting, lobbied legislators, and formally sought historical designation of La Jolla’s Depression-era post office, in efforts to try and save it. At tonight’s (April 26) meeting, the USPS will give a 20-minute slideshow presentation, to be followed by a shorter task force presentation. Phil Coller, on behalf of La Jolla Village Merchants Association; Angeles Liera, representing the La Jolla Historical Society; attorney Karl Zobell and longtime La Jolla community planner Bob Collins are scheduled to speak. The task force will then submit signed petitions to USPS to be followed by numerous public speakers before the evening closes out. The USPS’s final decision is expected by mid-June.

While the cost-sharing program paints a picture of a benevolent city bureaucracy, Council Policy 200-12 actually supersedes

state law, shifting much of the responsibility for sidewalk repairs onto the city. The policy, adopted in 1975, calls for the city to pay the entire cost of repairs to cityinstalled sidewalks if the damage is caused by public tree roots, grade subsidence (uneven sidewalks), heat expansion or city utility cuts — or if the sidewalk fronts a cityowned property or is at a street intersection

Short-term rentals draw ire of neighbors when used for parties By Dave Schwab An attempt to rent out the Bird Rock home on Chelsea Avenue, which MTV rented a year ago to film “The Real World” reality show, has rekindled debate over short-term vacation rentals. Recently, Chelsea Avenue neighbors were surprised to discover a Groupon-like website advertising a 21-and-over, Cinco de Mayo party at the “MTV house” from 7 to 10 p.m. on May 5. The ad offered valet parking and requested guests attend in “sexy cocktail attire.” For some residents, like Mike Costello, it brought back unwelcome memories of the battle outraged neighbors fought a year ago against MTV’s paying $45,000 a month to use the 6,845-square-foot oceanfront home to shoot its show. “It’s become a problem as these short-term rentals are highly disruptive to the neighborhood,” said Costello, adding such rentals are being used for overnight or weekend parties or as corporate retreats. “This is distinctly opposed to a person leasing a house to a family that occupies the house for a shortterm.” Costello pointed to mini-dorm ordinances as one law on the books that ought to be used to prevent inappropriate vacation rentals. “The mini-dorm ordinance says you can’t have six or more unrelated adults living in one location for more than 30 days,” he said. ‘With the Bird Rock MTV house last year, it was seven or eight unrelated individuals using the home for 90 days. “The city basically gave them carteblanche exempting them from noise and lighting restrictions and allowing them to have unpermitted valet parking.” Though MTV was allowed to continue filming, neighbors in negotiations between the city and show producers were able to exact some concessions to add police security and re-

Tipped off by neighbors’ complaints, First District City Councilwoman Sherri Lightner’s office has interceded in the MTV house reuse issue. “We’re issuing a civil penalty notice to the owner informing them the (advertised) event is not a permitted use,” said Bob Vacchi, city deputy director of the Development Services Department who oversees neighborhood code compliance. “They can’t get a

permit to hold a Cinco de Mayo party.” Vacchi discussed the rules governing short-term vacation rentals. “In a single-family zone, there is no regulation that says you can’t rent out a house as a short-term vacation rental to use for residential purposes for less than a week,” Vacchi said. “You could rent it for the weekend.” Use of such rentals is only called into question when it’s not primarily residential. “The problem we get into is when people hold other events at these places, such as

companies setting up parties and selling tickets, where the sole reason people go to the house is for that party,” Vacchi said. “We consider that to be more of a commercial use, and you can’t do that when it’s in a residential zone.” When short-term rentals are used for commercial purposes, Vacchi said homeowners are first warned, then assessed civil penalties starting at $2,500 per day. Warnings are usually enough, he said. Ozstar De Jourday, a Coldwell Banker La Jolla Realtor who works with vacation rentals, noted the market has been booming. “When we started up eight years ago there were 29 houses on the market,” said de Jourday. “Today there are more than 330.” De Jourday said short-term vacation rentals can be lucrative for homeowners depending on economic conditions. “In summer you can make three or four times the amount you normally rent for,” he said pointing out a year’s worth of rent can be accrued in a season. There’s also a lot of potential in La Jolla for vacation rentals, said de Jourday, noting many La Jollans’ homes are second homes lived in only part-time. A few years ago when the recession began, de Jourday said fewer people were traveling and the bottom fell out of the short-term rental market. But the market has rebounded in a big way. “All of 2011 (rentals) was amazing and the start of this year is phenomenal,” de Jourday said. “We don’t have enough product right now. We’re completely booked for the next two months at least.” De Jourday said vacation rentals are attractive to the high-end traveler for many reasons. “You have a nice kitchen, a yard,” he said. “It’s a great alternative to a hotel in an area that is a vacation paradise.”

By Scott Kyle, Chief Investment Officer at Coastwise Capital Group

Think back to the spring of 2009, when the stock market was making headlines – and not in a good way. Market swings and dramatic swoons had even the heartiest among us sick from all the turbulence. Buying stocks was pretty much the last thing on investors’ minds; and for many, selling felt like the best investment strategy. But when it comes to investing, your gut is really dumb. In fact, the only time you should listen to your intestinal tract with regard to stocks is on “opposite day.” Simply put, your stomach gets it wrong virtually every time. Whenever it “feels” like a bad time to invest, it is likely actually a good time to put money to work. For example, imagine if you could go back to March of 2009. At the time, most investors were racing for the exits. But in retrospect (and over 6000 points for the Dow later), it turned out to be a great time to buy stocks. That is the point: it will always feel bad when the timing is right. Furthermore, you will never call the bottom – except by sheer luck. So be prepared: if you do the smart thing and put money to work during market malaise, you may be “wrong” in the near term since the stock you purchased on Monday will likely be down on Tuesday. But how about a year or two from Tuesday? That is when you will be glad you did the opposite of what your gut was screaming at you to do. The mirror image of this scenario is also true. When you are feeling warm and fuzzy inside as it relates to your portfolio, you should do some serious portfolio (if not soul) searching for potential risks. Chances are, your gut is playing a trick on you. The fact is, our relationship with money is largely emotional – and the same applies to our investing lives. As humans, our brains are not wired to make smart investment decisions; but if we embrace this fact, we can make it work in our favor. Learn from the times when you felt nearly sick inside as the stock market bled red day after day – and realize that those are the moments when seeds are planted for future wealth.

Shores Association considers permit regulations for scuba divers By Dave Schwab La Jolla Shores community planners want private scuba companies using Kellogg Park to begin paying their fair share for upkeep of the public amenity. “The issue raised by some members of the La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) is that the SCUBA schools and tours are clearly a commercial use of the beach, and should be regulated by an RFP (Request For Proposals), similar to those required by the kayak- and surf-school businesses,” said LJSA chair Audrey Keane. “If they’re (scuba companies) going to use the park for commercial purposes, then there should be some benefit back, especially in these times when maintaining and improving the park has been so minimized by funding cuts,” added board member Mary Coakley. “Surfers, kayakers, all of those who use the park should put back into a fund to benefit it.” Acknowledging scuba divers, like kayakers and surfers, have a legitimate right to share Kellogg Park, Coakley suggested scuba divers ought “to get together and work out a proposal” on contributing to Kellogg Park, rather than having the city “come down on them with a proposal like they did on the kayakers.” Several years ago, a similar fight over shared use of the increasingly crowded ocean by private companies hosting group kayak tours led the city to create a lottery system to limit tours and curb kayak proliferation. Lifeguards also warned that increasing demands on their time by kayak users was threatening

public safety. “Almost every scuba lesson taught in San Diego does its check-out (final) dives in La Jolla Shores,” said Jerry Parker, a scuba divemaster with Sport Chalet, one of several companies offering private scuba lessons in the Shores. Now through October is the “high season”

for scuba instruction (primarily on weekends), Parker said. It’s not uncommon to see scuba groups totaling as many as 100 in Kellogg Park between 8 a.m. and noon. But Parker disagrees that scuba diving presents any conflicts or problems in the park. “It doesn’t take up any lifeguard time,” he

said, “scuba diving is segregated from the normal beach-going population,” and concentrated near the bathrooms at the south end of Kellogg Park. “I’ve done dozens of classes, both as a student and as a divemaster, and there’s never been any problem or interference between divers and people getting out of the water,” Parker said. “The only trouble is limited parking right close to that area. Parking is the problem — not diving.” Rod Watkins, owner of Scuba San Diego, Inc., is an outspoken critic of the city’s lottery system restricting Shores commercial kayakers. He believes instituting a similar RFP process for scuba divers would be a mistake. “It would make it more difficult for all businesses to do business,” he said. “It will increase revenues to the city, but none of that revenue will be spent at La Jolla Shores.” Watkins used to be in the kayak and scuba business in the Shores, but said he got out of kayaking after the city introduced its RFP and lottery system. “There were originally 16 kayak operators,” he said. “Now there’s five. Many jobs are gone. What benefit has La Jolla Shores received from the kayak RFP? Nothing.” First District Councilmember Sherri Lightner said she is willing to help get all the stakeholders together to discuss the next steps, should the community determine private scuba regulation at La Jolla Shores is in order.

Pauly to receive Nierenberg Prize for Science in the Public Interest

Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the William Nierenberg Family will present a free lecture by the recipient of the 2012 Nierenberg Prize for Science in the Public Interest, Dr. Daniel Pauly, 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 9 in the Great Hall of the International House on the UC San Diego campus. Pauly, principal investigator at the Sea Around Us Project based at the Fisheries Centre, University of British Columbia, is a leader in conceptualizing and co-developing the software that is used by ocean experts throughout the world. Advancing the case for setting up marine reserves so that fisheries can make a comeback, the outspoken and often-controversial critic of modern fishing practices has suggested that marine fishers will leave little but jellyfish or plankton for future generations to eat. After the short award presentation, Dr. Pauly will give a talk titled, “Jellyfish Burgers, or How We Changed the Oceans and They Changed Us.” Seating and parking is limited. Reservations are required at www.nierenberg. eventbrite.com. For more information, call (858) 534-5607. The Nierenberg Prize, which includes a bronze medal and $25,000, is named for William A. Nierenberg (1919-2000), a renowned science leader who served Scripps Oceanography as director from 1965 to 1986. The prize was created through a gift

Native to the Canary Islands, the Dragon Tree truly delights

Natural La Jolla By Kelly Stewart

ne of the most striking trees in our neighborhood, one that makes people stop in their tracks and exclaim, “What is that?” is the Dragon Tree (Dracaena draco). Native to the Canary Islands (and the national tree of Tenerife), the Dragon Tree is a curious plant. It is ancient, even having a role in Greek mythology. Legend has it that when Hercules (some stories report that it was Atlas) killed Landon, the 100-headed dragon who was protecting the Garden of Hesperides, the dragon’s blood spilled over the land and from it sprang up Dragon Trees. Dragon Trees take a very long time to mature. They begin life as a single stalk,

staying unbranched until they mature and flower at about 3 feet tall — this may take 10-15 years. After flowering, the top begins to branch. The number of branches can apparently be used to age the tree — one of the oldest specimens is thought to be more than 650 years old. Dragon Trees are listed by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature as “vulnerable in their native habitat” because populations have been in decline for some time. It is considered endangered in Cape Verde. Although it is now cultivated all over the world in dry climates, in the wild, special measures will have to be taken for its survival in the dry forests and cliffs where it is naturally found. Dragon Trees have been used extensively in traditional medicines and one of the uses for the bright red sap (dragon’s blood) is for staining violins their signature deep red color. Flowers of the dragon tree are greenish white and the fruit (which is sweet) is orange-brown and sticky. Many of the Dragon Trees in La Jolla must be more than 50-75 years old based on the highly branched canopies.

Crime Report n San Diego Police Department: (619) 531-2000

Masked gunman robs La Jolla liquor store Police are seeking a man with a gun who held up La Jolla Liquor, 7402 La Jolla Blvd., at 9:37 p.m. Sunday, April 22 wearing a Spiderman superhero mask. “He entered the store with a gun and walked to the side of the register behind the counter and reached into the register that was already open,” said the clerk, who requested anonymity. “After that, he just ran out.” The clerk said he and the robber were the only ones in the store at the time, adding he was caught off-guard by the incident because, “it’s not the kind of neighborhood I would expect that to happen in.” The amount of money taken was not disclosed. Police described the gunman as white, in his 20s, around 5 feet 10 inches tall, with a medium build. He wore a gray shirt and blue jeans. The thief was last seen heading south on foot from the store.

Exercise and Multiple Sclerosis Recent studies indicate that exercise in a controlled setting may actually support both cognitive function and enhance physical gains for MS patients. In one study published in the online journal, Brain Research, MRI’s showed that parts of the brain involved in processing speed were all negatively affected by MS -- but significantly less so in patients who are aerobically fit. Those MS subjects showed less deterioration of white matter and about 20% higher volume of gray matter. They also exhibited fewer and often smaller lesions. Not surprisingly, these patients performed better on cognitive skill tests compared to those who weren’t as fit. Another article published in The International MS Journal 2009 compiled results from multiple studies of endurance and strength training in MS patients. All of the studies analyzed showed good tolerance to exercise and improvements in strength and gait velocity after training. The professional therapists at Ability Rehab specialize in treating MS. Newly diagnosed patients should begin therapy as soon as possible but it is never too late to start. It is possible to maximize strength, mobility, gait, balance and flexibility at any stage of MS.

La Jolla Real Estate Brokers Association

By Pat Sherman Former UC San Diego students Steve Haskins and Bob Fuller have paired up to produce three wines bearing the name and spirit of La Jolla’s famed beach community, WindanSea. The moderately priced wines, which include a 2011 Great White, 2009 Sunset Red, and a 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon, are produced at Starr Ranch in Paso Robles, where the duo also produces its line of Deodoro wines. Haskins, a La Jolla attorney and real estate broker who ran an auto repair and restoration business with Fuller during their days at UCSD, hadn’t seen Fuller for 20 years, until a chance encounter in San Luis Obispo eight years ago. “He told me he was the winemaker at some old winery up there,” said Haskins, a La Jolla Town Council trustee. “I said I always wanted to get into winemaking.” Those discussions led to a business partnership and the founding of Deodoro Cellars, which currently offers a Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and three other blends. “We’ve built it up and now we have a large reserve of wine aging in barrels,” Haskins said. “Because we both went to school in La Jolla and I grew up in La Jolla, we wanted to get a name on one of our wines that La Jollans and people in San Diego would recognize.” The process isn’t as easy as coming up with a catchy name. Haskins said the federal government must first approve the name and aesthetics of the label. The government previously rejected the name “Antidote” for one of their wines. Fuller said he and Haskins also toyed with the name “Black’s Beach Sunburn Red,” though the duo decided it was “too edgy.” Following his time as an engineering student at UCSD, Fuller went on to become a

Eventually, his travels took him to New Zealand, where he fell in love with its Sauvignon Blanc, and to Australia, where he fell in love with its Shiraz. “It was quite an eye-opener,” he said. “I had never tasted wines like those before. I decided to go back to school to study viticulture (grape growing) and oenology (winemaking) and get off the road.” After studying the art of winemaking at Lincoln University in New Zealand, Fuller eventually made his way back to California, establishing himself as a winemaker at Starr

From Wine, A12 Ranch in Paso Robles. Though he never lived in WindanSea himself, Fuller said he dated a girl who lived there during his time at UCSD, with whom he is still in touch and pays some homage to with WindanSea wines. “Our aim with WindanSea wines is to provide refreshment, pleasure and inspiration to the community in return for having received the same in our youth,” he said. Haskins said he had no prior wine-making experience and wasn’t much of a wine aficio-

nado before running into his old pal again. Today, Haskins makes regular trips to Paso Robles and is fully involved in wine-making procedures. “It’s a whole process of timing, waiting, chemistry, weather, temperature, and … being ready to press the grapes and then blend the wine and get it in the barrel,” he said. “Then, it’s a waiting game. Red wines must be at least one year in the barrel before you can bottle them. “It’s something to get you out of the office, right?”

Children’s School marks Earth Day 2012 with beach, campus clean-up

Children’s School students depart for La Jolla Shores beach to collect trash.

Thinking of purchasing Thinking of refinancing?

By Dave Schwab In honor of Earth Day, April 22, students at The Children’s School in La Jolla donned plastic gloves and carried garbage bags down to La Jolla Shores beach Friday, April 20 to pick up trash and recycle it. At Kellogg Park, they discussed the observance’s significance. “Earth Day is a very special day that everybody shouldn’t pollute the Earth on,” said student Nika Sadr. “Earth Day should be every day.” Lily Grunski agreed.“It helps the Earth,” she said. Second-grader Luke Albert had this view of the day’s purpose: “It’s to pick up all the trash and not to make it polluted,” he said. “When you pollute, it makes the whole world like a dump.” Cole Owenethholtz offered his thoughts. “Some people just don’t care about the environment,” he said. “People who do care should help other people who do care clean it up.” It was “Green Day” all day Friday for all classes at The Children’s School, where each grade did its part. Since the campus features six acres of garden, including edible plants, the students hit the dirt. Their gardening project was illustrative of

The Children’s School’s alternative approach to education, said Chris Bezsylko, assistant head of school. “Our philosophy uses students, the environment and the community,” he explained. “The school’s curriculum is a lot less rote memory, drill, and a lot more hands-on, experiential. We try to make connections to what the kids are interested in.” Head of school Brian Oliphant joined the clean-up efforts, stating, “It’s important the kids are aware of the environment.” This year marked the 42nd anniversary of what many consider the birth of the environmental movement. On April 22, 1970, 20 million Americans inaugurated the first Earth Day by taking to the streets, parks, and auditoriums to demonstrate for a healthy, sustainable environment in massive coast-to-coast rallies. Thousands of colleges organized protests against the deterioration of the environment. Groups that had been fighting against oil spills, polluting factories and power plants, raw sewage, toxic dumps, pesticides, freeways, the loss of wilderness, and the extinction of wildlife suddenly realized they shared common values.

WHY SUFFER WITH DENTURES? For centuries, removable false teeth, or dentures, have been used to replace missing teeth. But denture-wearers report that many undesirable side effects come along with this less-than-ideal solution: Dentures are uncomfortable to wear and often slip or click; they can cause bad breath, and require ongoing and inconvenient maintenance; they often result in a weak bite, a fake-looking smile and an overly active gagging reﬂex. Care and comfort aside, those with dentures also are prevented from eating many of the foods and participating in many of the activities they enjoy. With today’s science, there’s simply no reason for anyone to struggle with dentures. In fact, many of the problems denture wearers struggle with can be solved in just one day* with the help of your ClearChoice team of dental implant professionals.

Denture wearers tend to struggle with: • Shame or embarrassment when smiling • Feeling limited in social situations • Maintaining a fully active lifestyle • Appearing older due to bone loss • Health issues related to their teeth

THE SOLUTION IS DENTAL IMPLANTS. Dental implants provide far better results than do dentures, because implants can prevent potential bone loss. Because they’re anchored into the jawbone, the fusion of the implant and bone provides stability, just as the natural teeth did. Implants perform and are cared for just like natural teeth! If you’re missing some or all of your teeth, dental implants can stimulate the bone, protect against atrophy and help preserve your natural facial features.

Unlike dentures, dental implants are ﬁxed in place, perform like your natural teeth, and can last a lifetime! CHOOSE A BETTER LIFE TODAY. Most people who choose dental implants report the decision to be life changing. Not only do dental implants look great and boost your conﬁdence, but they can also restore you to the active lifestyle you’ve been missing. Swim, ski, laugh and sing. Give business presentations. Eat what you like. Do it all without worrying about how your smile looks, or that your teeth will slip or fall out!

I had friends who had dentures, so knowing what they had to deal with, I just refused to go down that road. ClearChoice was absolutely the best option for me! — Joseph W., ClearChoice patient

WHY TRUST CLEARCHOICE? In addition to being the No. 1 provider of dental implants, ClearChoice has industryleading customer satisfaction and success rates. In fact, an independent study† of thousands of patients showed that those who chose ClearChoice would overwhelmingly recommend ClearChoice to others.

Café in Bird Rock hosts engaging student art High Tech High English teacher Kelly Williams and art teacher Jeff Robin Photos by Jane Wheeler

By Jane Wheeler ird Rock artist and High Tech High School art teacher Jeff Robin created an art show exhibiting his students’ works titled, “Master to Master,” which is on display at Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, 5627 La Jolla Blvd. until May 1. Seniors Lila Galvez and Kai Wells, whose work is featured, said they had never painted anything of this magnitude, and furthermore, most of the students involved had never taken an art class before. Robin teamed up with English teacher Kelly Williams for an integration of art and English project that strengthened both the written and art pieces the students produced. The assignment was to choose two master

artists (one Old Master and one Contemporary) and pick a painting from the first artist and re-create it in the style of the second. In addition, students had to research both artists and write a narrative about what would happen if they met and interacted. This dialogue had to be written in the voice/style of the artist to gain insight into their personalities. Williams said the project worked well because the research gave the student art and writing a deeper substance. Galvez observed that the artists from the earlier period painted what they saw, while the later period artists painted what they felt. — To learn more about the project, visit www.jeffrobin.com, click on Master to Master.

Sidewalks along Children’s Pool will cost more than predicted By Dave Schwab Cost estimates for putting in new sidewalks as part of a planned Coast Boulevard beautification at La Jolla’s Children’s Pool have risen dramatically. That was the bad news La Jolla Parks and Beaches, Inc., a nonprofit committee making recommendations to the city on coastal parks, got at its April 23 meeting. “A new estimate for replacing the sidewalks is now $383,534,” said committee member Phyllis Minick, who’s been spearheading the project. Minick added, “The city has decided the sidewalk is not parkland, and therefore permits are required that will cost (an additional) $60,000.” Substantial funding is still needed for the community-improvement project, estimated to cost $250,000-plus in its entirety. Minick promised to continue her extensive fundraising efforts with philanthropic organizations, including the San Diego Foundation, though she added that organization “does not give away money in the numbers we’re talking about here.”

• Fireworks Update: City Park and Recreation Director Stacey LoMedico discussed revisions to the San Diego Municipal Code governing park permits following challenges by an environmental group to the legality of fireworks displays held over bodies of water.

He noted the event, to be held partly in La Jolla for the first time, will be headlined by Hollywood director Gus Van Sant, whose credits include the films, “Good Will Hunting” and “Milk.”

From Sidewalks (with no abutting property). If a city-owned vehicle, such as a garbage truck, caused the damage, it would be paid for by the city, but not if the damage was caused by a private vehicle, Yousef said. Though state law provides a method by which “the city can recover the cost of sidewalk repairs from property owners who fail to make the repairs themselves … it is neither practical nor cost effective to pursue the cost of recovery from property owners for sidewalk repairs,” the city attorney opined. Ownership at issue As to who owns the sidewalk, the city attorney’s communications director, Gina Coburn, said it is actually owned by the city. The city merely has a right of way for public use of the underlying property. Even though the city owns the sidewalk, the property owner is obligated to maintain and repair the sidewalk under California Streets and Highways Code section 5610,” Coburn responded, via e-mail. Injury: Who’s liable? If Humpty Dumpty were to have a great fall while strolling down Wall Street, the city attorney opined, “Even though the adjacent property owner is responsible for maintenance and repair (of the sidewalk), the property owner is generally not liable for injuries to the public.” (San Diego attorney Matt Peterson said the city can also be held liable for damage to private property that directly results from of the city’s lack of care and maintenance of its right of ways, including sidewalks.)

San Diego sidewalks ■T otal length: More than 5,000 miles ■A nnual requests to repair sidewalks: 600-700 ■M ost common cause of sidewalk damage: Tree roots ■A verage cost to repair a section of root-damaged sidewalk: $2,200

One of the historic sidewalk etchings in the Village that city and property owners are responsible for maintaining. Pat Sherman Coburn said there are some cases where the property owner has been found liable for injuries caused by improperly maintained sidewalks, though she said, “There is no easy way to determine the amount.” However, the city attorney’s memorandum states how the city could begin shifting more of the burden to the public: “To encourage property owners to maintain sidewalks, the city could adopt an ordinance making property owners responsible for injuries to the public resulting from their failure to maintain and repair sidewalks as required by state law. … Faced with declining revenues, increased backlogs of deferred maintenance and potential liability for trip and falls, (some California) cities are considering new local laws that

emphasize the responsibility of private property owners.” Etched in cement The city and property owners also bear some responsibility for maintaining portions of sidewalks with historical significance, such as plaques and etchings that were carved in cement by handymen and contractors from the early 1900s. Carol Olten of the La Jolla Historical Society said she believes there are about 30 such bits of significant history within La Jolla’s sidewalk system. Yousef said the city does its part to preserve these historic etchings. “But just because it is a historic sidewalk, it does not turn over the responsibility (for repairs) to the city,” he said. “If the property owner is doing the repair, they’re required to preserve the historic markings.” Jewel-worthy sidewalks? Though many property owners throughout

the Village have spruced up the sidewalk in front of their spaces with decorative brick or concrete, the city is not required to maintain or repair these privately upgraded sidewalks, Yousef said. “If there’s a diversion from city standards, which is the standard concrete sidewalk, the city would not be responsible for maintenance and they would either be maintained by the business assessment districts or maintenance assessment districts or the property owner who’s fronting that sidewalk,” he said. “Damage could be caused by a (city) tree, but because the sidewalk is nonstandard the property owner is responsible for its maintenance.” Coller said that when he remodeled his store about five years ago, he paid a contractor to install a new and nicer concrete sidewalk. He points to recent sidewalk work done by Eddie V’s restaurant on Prospect Street as a model for what could be done to spruce up aesthetics underfoot in the Village. “What we really need is the sidewalks repaired, but ideally made pleasurable to see,” he said. “It would just change the whole view of the Village.” Coller said he would like to see the Merchants Association or other organizations work with the city to install more decorative, sidewalks — creating a uniform design down entire streets, as opposed to the odds and sods collection of private sidewalk designs currently seen in portions of the Village. “One side could have red concrete and one side could have a wavy pattern,” he said. “It would have a huge effect on the way people feel about the Village. It would brighten peoples’ days up.”

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS WindanSea Veterinary Clinic offers experienced pet care and cutting-edge technology

La Jolla Shores Hotel and Restaurant debuts summer room specials, culinary events

By Marti Gacioch Established more than 40 years ago, smallanimal medicine remains the primary focus of WindanSea Veterinary Clinic, now celebrating a major facility remodel. Clinic owner Dr. Dina Raichel, DVM, who has worked at the facility since 2009, bought the practice in June 2011. She and associate Dr. Jean Spengle, DVM, head a support staff of 10 trained employees who assure a high standard of pet care. “After I took over, we were voted the No. 1 vet practice in La Jolla,” Raichel said. “We’ve made all these great improvements to make sure that we have the best possible medicine available.” Preventative medicine is essential at the clinic, which offers routine pet care checkups, along with orthopedic care, puppy check-ups, inoculations, digital X-rays and dental cleaning for dogs and cats. The clinic provides complimentary exams for newly adopted pets from the Humane Society. As needed, Raichel will bring in a cardiac specialist and a radiology specialist. “We know what’s out there in terms of cutting-edge veterinary medicine,” Raichel said. “We’re starting to do minimally invasive procedures with laparoscopes, and our newly updated equipment includes a state-of-the-art

Heard & Not Seen This hearing aid does for your ears what a contact lens does for your eyes: improves your hearing without anyone knowing it’s there.

The Invisible In Canal (IIC) is virtually undetectable! Breaking News

At a recent gathering of the American Academy of Audiology (AAA), scientists revealed a hearing aid microchip processor so small that it can fit inside a hearing aid shell custom formed to your ear canal to fit right next to the ear drum. It sits so deep in the canal that it ends where other hearing aids begin. And that makes it completely undetectable to anyone else. In fact, we like to say it’s “invisible.”

Packs a Punch

Despite its miniature size, the processor inside the “Invisible-In-Canal” hearing aid is so powerful it supports the most sophisticated advances in digital hearing technology to date. It is so fast, that it samples the listening environment 2,000 times per second and makes automatic adjustments to the sound it delivers to your ear. When someone is talking, it is designed to quiet the background noise in-between syllables and amplify the speaker’s voice so that you can clearly hear and understand the words.

The entrance to the playing field at La Jolla High School, aka Gene Edwards Stadium, is crowned by flowering vines across a pergola that provide a triumphant arch for athletes (and graduates) to pass under. The stadium will host commencement ceremonies for the class of 2012 at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, June 12. —This column gives kudos to businesses, property owners and institutions that do their part to help make La Jolla beautiful.

No Whistling, Buzzing or Plugged-up Feeling

It also supports the undisputed world-leading feedback cancellation technology. This means the annoying whistling and buzzing your uncle’s old hearing aids used to make is a thing of the past. In addition, the positioning of the hearing aid beyond the second bend in the ear canal is meant to work with the ear’s natural acoustics to deliver more precise and natural sound—and resolve that pluggedup or head-in-a-barrel sensation (a complaint of many hearing aid wearers).

Are You Missing Too Much?

You’ve worked hard all your life. It’s time to be reaping some of that reward. Don’t let your hearing loss rob you of the things you enjoy most in life: the relationships with your friends and family. You can get help now without suffering the stigma of yesterday’s hearing aids.

Foreign journalists gather in La Jolla for global Media in Danger workshop By Lynne Friedmann Freedom of the press. We take it for granted, but in other parts of the world nations struggling for democracy may not share this value. When this is the case, the stakes are high for journalists. According to IPI (International Press Institute), a global network of editors, media executives, and leading journalists, more than 1,000 journalists have been killed worldwide since 1997 carrying out their jobs. In the Western hemisphere, the ongoing Mexico Drug War has made that country the most dangerous for journalists. In an effort to provide journalists with practical skills and technology tools to enable them to report important stories without putting their lives at risk, the Institute of the Americas (IoA) organized a four-day workshop, in late March, for Latin American journalists. Titled “Different Worlds, Similar Threats,” the workshop brought to La Jolla journalists from Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panamá, El Salvador, and Honduras. They met with their counterparts from Russia, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Kosovo, and Serbia. “We wanted to learn from other regions where being a journalist is a day-to-day risk,” said Rodrigo Bonilla, manager of Press Freedom

It takes a summer to think Outside the Lens GUEST COMMENTARY By Skylar Economy La Jolla High School Senior After four long and challenging, yet enjoyable, years of high school, I am finally reaching the end of my adventure. However, as this adventure ends, I am already getting ready to embark on the next part of my journey — college at UC Berkeley next year. Looking back at all of my accomplishments in and out of school, I ask myself, “Wow, did I really do all of that?” Some of these accomplishments mean more to me than others. When I consider the very best moments that I had in high school, I realize that many of them are a direct result of the time I spent with OTL as a summer intern and as a Teen Youth Council member during the school year. Whether I was helping students at the Monarch School create their own music video and superhero film, or teaching 5-year-olds how to hold a camera and use their vantage points, I had helped

guide these kids through the process. But the younger students weren’t the only ones who benefited from my involvement with OTL. I gained many things, as well. While writing my many college essays and supplements, I would often refer to my OTL experience and how I learned to become a leader and an independent thinker. After attending the Youth Council Leadership Institute through OTL last summer, I furthered my knowledge of not only film and photography, but of what it takes to be a leader. I always thought of myself as a leader — often taking the lead in school projects — but this experience taught me how to model leadership behavior while learning the important aspects of film production and photography, as well as public speaking. I made sure to use every skill I learned from the camp in my daily life. In fact, I just made the semi-finalist round for The Leadership Award at Berkeley! I know I will pack those skills to take with me next year as I enter the next phase of my life.

Trash removal could spare need for new storm drain I noticed in your article on La Jolla projects included in the Mayor’s $75 million allocation that the city engineer continues to misrepresent the cause of flooding on Avenida de la Playa during storms, claiming it is due to “the severely undersized [storm drain] pipe.” However, the size of the pipe is perfectly adequate to get all of the storm water down to the bottom of Avenida de la Playa, where it causes flooding and damage by exiting through a manhole cover in the street instead of from the outfall structure as intended. (See photo at left.) The reason this happens is that the outfall structure fills up with trash, blocking the storm water from exiting. If the trash were removed by

Vons needs to share its parking spots I was born and raised in La Jolla. I remember when the old Safeway used to abut the alley, with their parking lot on both sides of it. When they tore down the old Safeway, they built the new one (which later became Vons) on top of the alley. My question is, how did they get permission to do that? To my knowledge, no other business in La Jolla has been given

permission to build on top of an alley. And after adding all that real estate to their property, they have apparently given nothing in return. To be fair they should make some of their parking public, maybe all the spots where the alley used to run.

FROM JOURNALISTS, A26 the United States, participates later engaged in a roundtable discussion with Tijuana journalists on the obstacles to freedom of expression in Latin America. Then it was on to visits of drug-smuggling sites uncovered by the multi-agency San Diego Tunnel Task Force, and an in-depth discussion with the director of the Binational Center for Human Rights. Back in La Jolla, there was high-level training on a broad span of issues related to journalists’ personal safety and the emotional toll of the job. “When you cover violence, you become a victim, too,” said Ricardo Gonzalez of Article 19, an international organization that monitors, advocates, and litigates on behalf of freedom of expression wherever it is threatened. The group was also a workshop sponsor. A segment on cyber protection offered strategies to protect data as well as to reduce the risk that a reporter’s cell phone or social media presence could allow them to be monitored or their movements tracked. Aside from targeted killings, investigative reporters are silenced when the press succumbs to self-censorship borne of fear or the lack of professional solidarity. “To stop reporting is to die, too,” said a journalist from violence-torn Ciudad Juarez,

Mexico. One of the IoA workshop goals was to create a network that can spring quickly into action when a journalist faces danger. Little did the group know that this network would be called upon less than a week later when invited speaker Elena Milashina, a Russian investigative journalist, was attacked en route to her suburban Moscow home. Milashina was severely beaten suffering a concussion, numerous head contusions, and the loss of a tooth. The brutality of the attack, and failure of police to respond to the scene for 90 minutes, points to this being a deliberate, retaliatory attack against Milashina and not random street crime. Milashina was walking with Ella Asoyan, a program officer of the U.S.-based human rights organization Freedom House. One attacker held Asoyan back so she could not assist Milashina. IoA joined other international news organizations and the U.S. State Department in condemning the attack on Milashina by signing a letter to Russian Prime Minister (President-Elect) Vladimir Putin demanding an investigation of the incident and justice. “Freedom of the press is enshrined in article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights,” the letter stated. “It is the duty of the state to ensure that journalists can carry out their work without risk of violence.”

the city before each storm, there would be no flooding problem. Spending $4.1 million to replace the pipe and outfall structure (impacting businesses in La Jolla Shores and a substantial portion of the existing beach) will not solve this problem if the trash is not removed from the outfall structure. Before spending all the money and causing all the disruption, perhaps the city should try the simpler and less expensive solution first. I would be happy to keep the outfall structure free of trash for $20,000 per year. Eric Korevaar Ph.D. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering La Jolla

Last week, Plum was named as the top junior in the state as well as the player of the year by ESPNHS Cal-Hi Sports. Plum, who scored nearly 25 points per game and led the Torreys to the Division IV state title last month, was also the state’s sophomore of the year last season. To put the honor in perspective, not even La Jolla Country Day’s Candice Wiggins was named the top junior her junior season. Wiggins went on to Stanford and now plays for the WNBA’s Minnesota Lynx. Plum, who will be a senior next season, has yet to decide where she will play her college basketball.

Not only will you get a response from experience, but you will probably get an opinion on the Padres or insights about their favorite player. Bronco players think they can coach, too. They will give you great inside tips on why you shouldn’t steal second on a good catcher, lead off too much on a specific left-handed pitcher, and at all cost — avoid pitching a high fastball to a returning All Star. Of utmost importance to the parents is to park your car far away from home run and foul ball territory, because they take pride in hitting a home run and a car in the same swing. By now, these players have spent hundreds — maybe thousands — of hours at the Cliffridge fields practicing or just running around with friends and family. In that time, Bronco-level players have developed their skills and sharpened their knowledge of playing the game of baseball. Pitchers are throwing between 50 and 60 miles per hour, have a good change-up and some even have a wicked curve ball. Most infielders have turned a double-play or two. Many outfielders have made a couple of “ESPN Web Gem” catches or have thrown someone out at the plate from the outfield. Bronco hitters know how to lay down safety and squeeze bunts, hit opposite field behind runners and even put a couple over the fence.

Aztecs on national radar for next season

La Jolla Youth Baseball players carry their banner at PONY Day at Petco Park on Sunday. Courtesy have just as much fun, too. Weekend Update Last Sunday, more than 300 LJYB kids and families attended the annual PONY Day at Petco and were treated to a fun Padre victory over the Phillies in a 6-1 game filled with big hits and silly errors. Before the game, the kids got to parade around the field on the infield warning track with LJYB kids proudly carrying their banner and wearing their Padre uniforms. Bronco players Evan Benham and Nick Hammel were invited to throw out the 1st pitch and take infield before the game, which was a real thrill for them.

The San Diego State men’s basketball team received more national attention on Monday as it was tabbed the 16th-best team in the nation heading into the 201213 season. Two of the Aztecs transfers were also highlighted as players to watch next season. SDSU was rated No. 16 by ESPN’s Dick Vitale, who on Monday, released his early preseason top-40 rankings. The Aztecs were the highest-ranked Mountain West team on his list, ahead of No. 21 New Mexico and No. 30 UNLV. “The premier player in the Mountain West, Jamaal Franklin, is back,” Vitale said. “Steve Fisher welcomes in several big-time transfers, including Dwayne Polee of St. John’s.” Polee and fellow sophomore JJ O’Brien were among the notable transfers singled out by ESPN.com’s Dana O’Neil. “O’Brien … is a solid scorer who averaged 6.4 points despite missing nine games with a broken foot,” O’Neil wrote. “Polee,

a gifted athlete, started 27 games … as a freshman, but he was on the wrong coast. Polee is from Los Angeles, and the pull to be closer to home … was too much to overcome. Now Steve Fisher, who already had an impressive would-be mulligan season, has even more talent to keep the Aztecs moving forward.” The Aztecs, who finished the 2011-12 campaign with a 26-8 record, are coming off their fourth straight season with at least 25 victories and their third consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance. In each of the last seven years, the back-to-back Mountain West regularseason co-champions have won 20 or more games and have advanced to the postseason. In 2012-13, San Diego State is slated to return four of its five starters and its top four scorers from this past season. The Aztecs are also slated to welcome three Division I transfers and a heralded recruiting class that was ranked No. 24 nationally by Rivals.com.

SDSU’s Wong named Golfer of the Year San Diego State junior Christine Wong became the first Aztec to be named Mountain West Golfer of the Year as the 2012 conference championship came to a close in blistering triple-digit temperatures Sunday at the par-72, 6,208-yard Wigwam Golf Course. Wong came up just short of the league individual title, falling on the fourth playoff hole, but was able to lead SDSU to its best team finish (3rd) at the MW tournament in a decade. “I’m very happy for and proud of Christine,” SDSU head coach Leslie Spalding said. “She has been solid for us this entire season and has led the league in stroke average.”

10 QUESTIONS

Love for modern art keeps gallery owner Mark Quint connected to community Mark Quint grew up in La Jolla and graduated from La Jolla High School. He went to college at the San Francisco Art Institute and then taught art in Hawaii for five years. Quint moved back to La Jolla and opened a contemporary art gallery in 1981. Quint Gallery has held more than 250 exhibitions during the past 31 years. Located on Girard Avenue next to Harry’s Coffee Shop, the gallery is currently showing work by Mark Quint San Diego artist Jean Lowe. Quint lends his support to the Emilio Nares Foundation, The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, and the San Diego Center for Children. He is also on the advisory committee of the La Jolla Community Foundation’s murals project.

What brought you to La Jolla? My parents moved to La Jolla in 1957. What might you improve in the area? I would like to see smaller houses, better drivers on our streets, less beach trash, warmer ocean water and the return of the Cove Theater. Who or what inspires you? All the fantastic artists I work with, including Kim MacConnel, Robert Irwin and Jean Lowe. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? My mother, who passed away last year, my girlfriend Kellie, the artist Manny Farber, Keith Richards, Robert Irwin, Sofia Vergara, Oscar Wilde — and me. What are you reading? Right now, it’s “The One: The Life and Music of James Brown.” The Godfather of Soul was one strange dude. I am also reading “1Q84” by Haruki Murakami. I am on page 720 and I keep hoping it will get better. It has not. I don’t recommend it. What is it that you most dislike? Temptation. As Oscar Wilde said, “ I can resist everything but temptation.” What is your most-prized possession? A Telecaster guitar I bought when I was 19. What do you do for fun? Hang out with my dog, play guitar, daydream, visit Kobey’s Swap Meet, and buy and sell art. What is your most marked characteristic? I like to think it is adaptability. What is your motto or philosophy of life? Keep on keeping on.

MUSICAL COMEDY CAST INSISTS THAT ‘NOBODY LOVES YOU’

ENTERTAINMENT B21

An affable Dalai Lama donned a UCSD Tritons visor during a panel on global climate change at UCSD.

During UCSD visit, Dalai Lama says science and religion not incompatible in curbing global warming By Pat Sherman is Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama was in good spirits during a visit to UC San Diego April 18, where he frequently told jokes, chuckled and even gave UCSD Chancellor Marye Anne Fox an affectionate head-butt. The spiritual head of Tibetan Buddhism was at UCSD to discuss climate change before heading to the University of San Diego to talk about cultivating peace through justice. Both events were sold out, as was an address at San Diego State University on April 19. Opening the event at RIMAC Arena, eBay founder and chairman Pierre Omidyar noted that the Dalai Lama has previously stated his belief that when scientific facts contradict Buddhist beliefs, “those beliefs must be discarded.” A 1989 Nobel Peace Prize winner, the Dalai Lama was discussing climate change with UCSD professors Veerabhadran Ramanathan and Richard Somerville. During his opening remarks, Somerville said the Earth’s climate has always changed from natural causes. What is different today, he said, is that human activities have become the dominant factor. “Our generation today now controls what the climate will be for our children and grandchildren,” Somerville said. “We did not seek this power but we have it because we have long used the atmosphere as a free dump for the side effects and waste products of human activities. “The case for urgency in dealing with climate change is scientific, not ideological or political.” Ramanathan began by offering a “scientific message of hope.” “There is a practical and proven way to slow down global warming considerably in our lifetime,” he said. “In fact, we can

As many as 4,500 people gathered at RIMAC Arena April 18 to hear the Dalai Lama discuss global warming with UCSD professors Veerabhadran Ramanathan and Richard Somerville.

TRUE OR FALSE?

On April 26, 1785, ornithologist John James Audubon was born. True. The French-American ornithologist, naturalist, and painter was notable for his expansive studies to document all types of American birds and for his detailed illustrations that depicted the birds in their natural habitats. His major work, a color-plate book “The Birds of North America” (1827-1839), is considered one of the finest ornithological works ever completed. He identified 25 new “Great American parties balance species and a number of new sub-species. charity and civilizing moments of Audubon developed his own methods goodwill and refinement amidst for drawing birds. First, he killed them John James the hubbub and irritations of using fine shot. He then used wires to Audubon modern life, rekindling joie de vivre prop them into a natural position, in our society.” — John Loring unlike the common method of many ornithologists, who prepared and stuffed the specimens into a rigid pose. When working on a major specimen like an eagle, he would spend up to four 15-hour days, preparing and drawing it. His paintings of birds are set true-to-life. He often portrayed them as if caught diarrheaist: noun; a person who in motion, especially feeding or hunting.

Tickets on sale for ‘Hats Off to San Diego’ luncheon Organizers promise there will be even more laughter, applause and gaiety at the 19th annual Gold (Gifts of Loving Donors) Diggers’ “Hats Off to San Diego” luncheon than ever before. With the theme, “A Salute to Broadway,” there will be toe-tapping under the tables, swaying to the music, and a surprise as this year’s contestants model their hats before the crowd. The event begins with a Champagne social at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 3 at The Prado in Balboa Park. The hat event has been renamed “The Betty Mabee Hat Parade,” in honor of the deceased founder of the Gold Diggers. Fashion personality Leonard Simpson will be the Master of Ceremonies. “People are going to see a wonderful event and they are going to want to be involved in coming years,” said cochair Diana Vuich, who shares duties with Priscilla Webb. “There will be four, silent auction packages and a drawing for a $500 money hat.” The event committee has chosen ElderHelp and San Diego Junior Theatre to receive sizable gifts on that day. (Donations to ElderHelp assure there will be help for

older adults who are not poor enough to qualify for county or state services, but cannot afford to get help on their own. San Diego Junior Theatre provides productions for children of all ages and abilities since its beginning in 1948.) In addition, donations will also go to other local groups. A striking and creative hat that blends the purposes and goals of the local charity it represents with the theme chosen by the Gold Diggers Board of Directors, will be a top candidate for the best prize. This year’s hat parade contestants are Autism Tree Project Foundation, After School All-Stars, Angels of Aseltine, ARC of San Diego, Classics4Kids, Employment and Community Options, The Friends of Braille Institute, Just in time for Foster Youth, San Diego Floral Association, Young Audiences of San Diego, and YMCA Youth and Family Services. Votes from the guests determine who wins the other prizes. The 18-Karate Gold Award is $2000; the 49er Award is $1,000, and the Prospector Awardee is $750.

FROM Dalai Lama, B1 cut down expected warming over the coming decades by almost half and thus slow down the melting of the glaciers and snow packs, particularly in the Hindu KushHimalayan-Tibetian glaciers, which are referred to as ‘the water fountain of Asia.’ ” Spiritual leaders, such as the Dalai Lama and the Pope, have the “moral authority” to demand cleaner climate practices, Ramanathan said. The Dalai Lama stressed the importance of nations setting aside “national economic interest” and coming together with the “full force of cooperation” to slow global warming. “The world belongs to humanity,” said the 76-year-old spiritual leader, who sported a UCSD Tritons visor for the discussion. “America belongs to the people … not to Republicans or Democrats.” Climate change, said the Dalai Lama, “is a question of our life, our survival. … This is something, very, very serious.” While the toll war and violence takes on humanity is evident through widespread imagery, climate pollution is often an “invisible,” yet omnipresent killer, the Dalai Lama said. “This blue, small planet is our only home, no other planet. We have to take care of it.” Stressing the importance of education and awareness, the Dalai Lama said that if mankind can work together to reduce the threat of nuclear warfare, it can do the same to reduce greenhouse gas-emitting pollutants. The future of the planet depends on the “oneness of humanity,” he said. Somerville called for educating political leaders on the problem of global warming, though

The world belongs

to humanity. America belongs to the people … not to Republicans or Democrats. ... (Climate change) is a question of our life, our survival. This is something, very, very serious.

”

— Dalai Lama

During his April 18 visit to UCSD adding, “I am optimistic about what technology can do, (but) guardedly optimistic” about what politics can do to solve the problem. “We have to sensitize our economists … that changes are happening now,” Ramanathan said. While advocating respect for long-held traditions, the Dalai Lama said humanity also must face “today’s reality,” and care for the planet in the same way a bird would its nest.

“Our survival depends on it,” he said. “It is wrong just to exploit as much as possible without care.” Asked by a member of the audience how one can have a calm, rational debate about climate change with those who deny its existence, the Dalai Lama said the key is to “have respect” and “listen” to the other side. During the UCSD event, the Dalai Lama occasionally consulted a translator by his side. Though portions of his talk were lost in translation, the audience seemed to comprehend the general message he wished to convey. “It’s kind of like listening to Shakespeare, where your ear adjusts, and then you get it,” said Michelle Tiernan, following the

UCSD event. University donor Blake Harper said he has long admired the Dalai Lama and found the presentation “fantastic.” “The two scientists were so brilliant in their thinking on environmental issues, and the Dalai Lama just brought a whole different attitude (with his) spiritual background,” Harper said. Tiernan said she admired how the Dalai Lama brought “secular education in line with people’s religious beliefs, “honoring all paths and all faiths.” Environmental engineering student Kingston Hon said he was surprised by how

Protecting the Dalai Lama Those attending the Dalai Lama’s San Diego speeches had to go through metal detectors. Detection dogs sniffed all media equipment before it was allowed into venues. U.S. Department of State agents in dark suits and earphones monitored the events. At UC San Diego, a cadre of UCSD police officers and hired guards also were tasked with securing RIMAC Arena. Though the State Department

and UCSD officials declined to offer specifics on the amount of security, Henry DeVries, an assistant dean for external affairs with UCSD Extension, said the security was “much tighter” and “dramatically higher” than it had been when President Obama visited as a presidential candidate, or when President Clinton visited the campus last year for his Global Initiative conference — both of which were overseen by the U.S. Secret Service. State Department spokeswoman said the detail was “standard” for any visiting dignitary or person of importance. “We protect visiting cabinet-level foreign dignitaries, foreign ministers and even former heads of state, (as well as) noteworthy dignitaries like Prince Harry, Prince William and Catherine when they were visiting out there.” — City News Service contributed to this report.

FROM Dalai Lama, B6 informed the Dalai Lama is on climate change. “I didn’t know what knowledge he could bring to the table about environmental issues, but surprisingly enough, he did have a lot of wisdom pertaining to the situation we’re in,” Hon said. “I always thought he would be kind of distant from everybody, but you could sort of relate (to him), like your grandfather. He has an aura about him that you just respect, but at the same time he’s still very humble, still very human.” “He’s like Yoda,” added UCSD political science major Hannah Bernabe. Sierra Stevens-McGeever, who is studying marine biology at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, said she liked that the Dalai Lama repeatedly underscored the concept of shared humanity. “Some people are starving and some people are trying to get the biggest, baddest house and the craziest car, but it’s not really what’s important when it comes down to it,” she said. “We do share this world and our pollution is affecting people in other parts of the world that don’t have the luxury of driving a car around, but they’re still breathing in polluted air.” Student Jesse Traller, who is studying algae biofuel research, said she liked that the Dalai Lama called for engaging in civil discourse with climate change denialists. “As long as you address them in a harsh way, like I

New musical tells the ‘Scottsboro Boys’ tale of denied civil rights By Diana Saenger In 1931 nine AfricanAmerican teenagers were riding a train to Memphis to seek work but ended up being falsely accused of raping two white girls. They were denied an impartial jury, fair trial, fair sentencing, and effective counsel in three different trials. This human drama unfolds in The Old Globe Theatre’s West Coast premiere of “The Scottsboro Boys.” Clifton Nominated Duncan for 12 Tony Awards, the show opens April 29 at The Old Globe. The critically acclaimed musical features top-notch talent performing music and lyrics by the team of John Kander and Fred Ebb.

Courtesy Scottsboro Boys is Clifton Duncan as Haywood Patterson (“Twelfth Night,” “The uniVERSE Project”). Duncan, who got his start in an acting program at New York University, was performing at the Yale Repertory Theatre when he got a call from his agent. She informed him that Stroman had seen him and wanted him to audition for this West Coast premiere. Duncan was not aware of the true story at the time. “I’ve had friends tell me

In the play, Hayward reveals that he was the first to go on trial and be sentenced, and he talks about some of the

Newcomers Club presents Titanic-era fashion show

Members of the Victorian Ladies Society arrive in fashions of the day and include Alicia Weinert, Joyce Haas, Celina Mann, Wendy Naylor and Jody Regan. RoseMary Taylor sings ‘Happy Birthday’ — in both a Brahms and Mozart version — to a luncheon guest.

he theme of the Newcomers Club’s spring luncheon at La Jolla Country Club last week was Victorian Fashion, with a nod to the 100th anniversary of the sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 14-15, 1912. Buzz about the fuss and foibles of petticoats, corsets and crinoline dominated the day with representatives from the San Diego Victorian Ladies Society modeling outfits that prompted lively discussion. The Newcomers welcomes into its ranks anyone who has moved into Zipcode 92037 in the past three years. News of meetings and activities can be found at Merle Lotherington’s lajollanewcomers.org table centerpieces wow guests. Photos by Susan DeMaggio

Rosie O’Brien, a guest of Newcomer member Mary Duea, was an extra in James Cameron’s 1997 ‘Titanic’ (look for her in the lifeboat scene with actresses Kathy Bates and Frances Fisher). She shared memories of traveling across the border each morning to the soundstage in Rosarito Beach, Mexico. Her favorite part of the experience? ‘Dressing up in those gorgeous period costumes; hair and makeup alone took more than an hour each day,’ she said.

Attending the luncheon in Victorian-era fashions were Merle Lotherington, Judith Van Brocklin and Kay Rose.

Please pay attention to these foods that will boost alertness

Kitchen Shrink By Catharine L. Kaufman

shook my head in utter disbelief when a friend blushingly told me she had locked her infant son in the back seat of her car alongside her handbag containing the car keys. Fortunately, it was cool that day so baby was not trapped in a sweltering vehicle, and roadside service came to the rescue in minutes. One month later, I again shook my head in utter disbelief when I did the same thing, minus the baby. I popped the trunk to deposit my groceries, when the lid ricocheted, bonked me on the head, causing me to drop my keys in the trunk as I robotically slammed it shut. The doors instantly locked, activating the alarm

system, so even an adept car thief could not prod open that stubborn trunk. After two hours in the parking lot, the team of frustrated roadside service guys ended up towing me to the dealership where my vehicle was connected to a computer to program the trunk to “open sesame,” and retrieve my keys and bags of rotting groceries. Why are we not as alert as we should be? Sleep deprivation, stress and poor diet are the perfect storm for these mishaps. Eating a magical combination of foods has been linked to better energy, alertness and even focus and concentration — especially for students as final exams hover. Oil and Lube Put the skids on red meat and do red snapper or other omega-3 fatty acid powerhouses instead, especially wild-caught, deep sea, coldwater ones like salmon, herring, sardines and mackerel. DHA, one of the key omega-3s in fish, is also a vital fatty acid in grey matter,

High-Gear Key Lime Pie Here’s a refreshing “key” lime pie with a brain-boosting walnut crust. It’ll put your taste buds into a tailspin. ■ For the crust 1 cup unbleached flour 1/3 cup walnuts, ground 1/4 cup white cane sugar 1/2 cup sweet butter, softened ■ F or the filling 3/4 cup white cane sugar 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons unbleached flour 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 3 tablespoons lime juice ■ Method: Preheat oven to 350º F. In a mixing bowl combine crust ingredients and press into a pie dish. Bake for 15 minutes. While crust is baking whisk filling ingredients in a mixing bowl until well blended. Pour over baked crust. Bake for another 18 minutes. Cool. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

so eating a diet rich in omega-3s keeps brain cells well-lubricated and vibrant, improving mood, brain wiring and cell-to-cell communications — and that translates into thinking quick on your feet. Vegans can load up on seaweed and other oceanic veggies that are also treasure-troves for keeping the brain on its toes. Nuts and Bolts The wonderful walnut,

packed with alpha-linolenic acid (the plant’s version of brain-boosting omega-3s) fittingly resembles miniature hemispheres of the brain. Walnuts’ omega-3s increase cognitive functioning similar to omega-3s from animal sources by keeping the brain lubricated and in high gear, and preventing inflammation by blocking signals produced by nasty free radicals. Walnuts have also been

found to hike melatonin levels, one of the sleep regulating hormones in the body. So if you’re short on zzz’s, munch on some walnuts before bedtime so you’re well-rested and alert in the a.m. Concoct a batch of sweet and savory candied walnuts and toss in your cereal, salads or enjoy solo. Dial up on pumpkin and sunflower seeds for more defensive maneuvers as these contain tryptophan, which the brain converts into the neurotransmitter serotonin, so anxiety takes a pit stop. Juice Your Batteries More than 100-million people jump-start their days with a java jolt. The coffee bean (like its close cousin the cocoa bean) is an antioxidant warrior packed with vitamins and minerals. Brain-friendly caffeine, the latter linked to boosting short-term memory, increases focus and problem solving skills. After decades of debate, coffee is now considered a high-octane brain fuel when consumed in moderate amounts. Just don’t

overdose on the battery acid that will have the effect of jacking up the jitters. Bumper Crop Blueberries, a purple powerhouse are packed with micronutrients, including Vitamins B6, C and K along with manganese, antioxidant pigments and phytochemicals for recharging long-term memory and cognitive processing. Studies have shown wild blueberries may lessen deterioration in Alzheimer’s patients by shielding the brain from free-radical attack. Toss them in your muffins, oatmeal, pancake batter, yoghurt and rejoice! Mint Condition Mint has been linked to hiking up concentration and the ability to recall information. So before an exam, chew a refreshing mint leaf, sip a cool glass of mintinfused H2O or suck on a natural mint candy to dial up your test scores. — For more recipes, visit FreeRangeClub.com or e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Duo to perform free, classics concert at Riford Library Sunday From FanFaire Reports FanFaire Foundation’s second 2012 Free Family Concerts Series, “From Paris to You,” featuring Parisbased pianist Zachary Deak and violist Virginie d’Avezac de Castera, continues with a 2 p.m. performance Sunday, April 29 at the Riford Library, 7555 Draper Ave. Frequent artistic collaborators, the San Diegoborn Deak and Bordeauxborn de Castera have put together a diverse program of Baroque through 20th

Violist Virginie d’Avezac de Castera

Want to know more? ■Y ouTube.com/ fanfairefoundation ■ fanfairefoundation.org/ paris.html century music. The duo will perform Sergei Prokofiev’s “Suite from Romeo and Juliet for Viola and Piano,” aptly described as an “opera without words,” and Henri Vieuxtemps’ poignant “Elegie Op. 30 for Viola and Piano.” Deak will open the

program with a solo of Domenico Scarlatti’s virtuosic piano Sonatas K. 450 G minor and K. 517 D minor, and Franz Liszt’s “La Vallée d’Obermann.” He will close with Robert Schumann’s Piano Sonata No. 1 in F sharp minor, the composer’s unique cry of passion for his beloved Clara to whom he dedicated the work. The pair will perform the same program 2 p.m. April 29 at the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club, 17025 Avenida de Acacias.

“From Paris to You” showcases Deak’s and de Castera’s artistry and reflects their musical preferences. Deak has performed extensively in France as a soloist and in chamber groups. He Zachary has particiDeak pated in the premieres of many contemporary works and has been recorded by French Radio

and Harmonia Mundi. Today, he is a scholar at the Royal College of Music in London where he continues his studies in piano performance with Leon McCawley. D’Avezac de Castera is a professor of viola at the Cognac Conservatory of Music and conductor of the school’s string orchestra (2004-2010). She lives in Paris where she performs regularly with Deak and other musicians. She has been a member of the Franz String Quartet since 2011.

LENA is a 1-1/2 year old, 10 lb., spayed female Chihuahua mix. Lovely little Lena came into our Rescue after being relinquished at the shelter, due to medical issues. Lena had broken her front leg at 10-months old, and her owners could not afford the vet care. Her leg had healed at a very odd angle, so the only option was to amputate. Being a 3-legged dog has not slowed Lena down one bit! She is an active, playful, and very affectionate dog, who loves being in your lap or riding in the car. Lena gets along well with other dogs; she’s house-trained, crate-trained, microchipped, and in great health! Her bags are packed & she’s ready for her “forever home”. To meet Lena, contact Becky at Aussies & Others. Email: ausshepards@cox.net. Phone: 619-469-3748.

Notice is hereby given that RECONTRUST COMPANY, N.A., as duly appointed trustee pursuant to the Deed of Trust executed by JONATHAN DAVID ROSEMAN, A MARRIED MAN AS HIS SOLE & SEPARATE PROPERTY, dated 03/29/2006 and recorded 4/5/2006, as Instrument No. 2006-0235280, in Book , Page 12032, of Official Records in the office of the County Recorder of San Diego County, State of California, will sell on 05/21/2012 at 10:00AM, On the grounds of the Scottish Rite Event Center, located at 1895 Camino Del Rio South, San Diego, CA at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash or check as described below, payable in full at time of sale, all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust, in the property situated in said County and State and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 6933 NEPTUNE PLACE, LA JOLLA, CA, 92037. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. The total amount of the unpaid balance with interest thereon of the obligation secured by the property to be sold plus reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $4,339,502.75.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on a property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the lender

It’s reality TV vs. romantic comedy in The Globes’ ‘Nobody Loves You’ By Diana Saenger Michelle Tattenbaum, director of The Old Globe Theatre’s “Nobody Loves You” is in full swing readying the musical comedy for its world premiere May 9. “It’s kind of like an old-fashioned musical — there’s comedy and romance; but it’s extremely fun and with wonderful music,” she said. Music and lyrics are by Gaby Alter, with book and lyrics by Itamar Moses. The pop song-filled plot is about Michelle a philosophy Tattenbaum grad student (Adam Kantor, “Rent,” “Next To Normal”) who goes to extremes to win back his ex on a dating show … but then along comes Jenny (Jenni Barber, “Some Lovers”). Tattenbaum (“Love/Stories,” “The Four of Us,” “Firefly”) said she was working with Moses a few years back on another show when they saw that peoples’ obsession with reality TV was starting to build. “We both had a lot to say about trying to live your life today and find a connection with other people, which is what this

Moses is author of the plays “Outrage,” “Bach at Leipzig,” “Celebrity Row,” “The Four of Us,” “Yellowjackets,” “Back, Back, Back” and more. He’s written for TNT’s “Men of a Certain Age,” and HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire.” He is a former Globe Playwright-in-Residence. Tattenbaum said she enjoys everything about Moses’ creative energy. “He’s smart, funny, and has a mix of serious ideas and themes, which combined, make lots of laughs,” she said. “I get his sense of humor, he cracks me up, and I get where his characters are at and what they are struggling with. With Moses’ writing, I have an immediate access point into the characters.” “Nobody Loves You” explores who one is in relation to other people and

the challenges that people face through the ages, “and now all of our electronic connections — we talk on the phone but rarely get together in person,” Tattenbaum said. Along with her passion for the story, Tattenbaum said she is also excited about the music and lyrics by Alter (“Young Zombies in Love”), music direction by Vadim Feichtner (Broadway’s “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee”) and choreography by Mandy Moore (Emmy Award-nominated director, choreographer and dancer known for her work on “So You Think You Can Dance,” “American Idol,” and “Dancing with the Stars.” “‘They are all incredible,” Tattenbaum said. “I think we assembled a great team who gets what this project is about — which is finding love. We have a shared sensibility. I’ll suggest something to Mandy and she does it 10 times better than I imagined. She totally gets the humor of the show and figures out dance moves that are exactly the right style. Vadim is an extraordinary musician with a writing background, so he’s able to approach the storytelling and not just how the music should go.”
