Whitney complaint rejected community planning group chair or trustee is allowed to unilaterally file an appeal of any project on behalf of the group, that group e-mails regarding the Whitney project did not address the LJCPA recommendation as alleged, and that the allegation of potential misconduct by trustee Phil Merten was unwarranted in that he did not receive monies for, and had no direct economic interest in, the project.” Kim Whitney and her husband Bob want to build
2,300 square feet of streetlevel retail space with parking underground and two condos above on their corner lot on Avenida de la Playa and Paseo Grande. “We disagree; we think we have a valid case,” she said last week. “We weren’t given our due process — and should have been.” Bernie Segal, a member of the La Jolla Shores Association and an opponent of the project, countered her argument.

Mayor’s budget plan stirring nonprofits to fend off cuts
Whoa, Listen to the Music!
BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com A city investigation has determined that the La Jolla Community Planning Association did nothing wrong in appealing the controversial mixed-use, La Shores proposal known as the Whitney project. In a letter dated March 30 addressed to the law firm of Schwartz Heidel Sullivan representing Bob and Kim Whitney, the city Planning & Community Investment Department found that “a

BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com With the mayor’s latest budget-cutting proposal eliminating city beach fire pits and halving hours at libraries and park and recreation centers, local nonprofit support groups are scrambling to find new funding sources. The plan could also displace community planning groups which meet regularly at the La Jolla Rec Center. Under the current proposal, branch libraries would be open two days a week and the equivalent of
77 full-time positions would be cut, saving $7.4 million. Park and Rec would take an equivalent hit, with hours of rec centers pared from 40 to 20, losing the same staff as libraries for $6.5 million in savings. Characterizing proposed department cuts as “the largest one-time reduction I can remember,” City Park and Recreation Director Stacey LoMedico said Monday a major department reorganization may be in store.

Fay Street “next to Rubio’s across from Vons,” said Linda Forshay, who oversaw the installation. In a statement about the mural, Gallaccio writes, “This billboard image mirrors the mythological and elemental properties of California living. Daydreams, darkness and isolation can accompany sunshine. The title refers to a song by the Beach Boys, written by Brian Wilson, himself a virtual shut-in for years, in a land where the sun never stops shining.” Gallaccio’s work is often preoccupied with the nature of change through the passage of time. The artist was born in Paisley, Scotland, in 1963 and educated at Kingston Polytechnic and Goldsmiths College at the University of London. She is currently a
professor in the UCSD Department of Visual Arts. As one of the leading British sculptors of her generation, she was short-listed for the prestigious Turner Prize in 2003. She has exhibited extensively, including recent solo exhibitions at the Tate Britain and at Ikon Gallery in Birmingham, England. Residents will recall the first two “Murals of La Jolla” — Seattle artist Roy McMakin’s “What’s Your Favorite Color?” brick painting on the building at 7596 Eads Ave. and San Diego artist Kim MacConnel’s abstract composition, wavy lines down the side of Lapiz Building at 7724 Girard Ave. The La Jolla Community Foundation has said it plans to continue the murals project, eyeing 10 or 12 artworks for the town as funds permit.

New plan for splitting Torrey Pines project in works BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com Torrey Pines neighbors are poised to present a counterproposal requesting improvements to the La Jolla gateway corridor be broken up into eight smaller segments rather than four larger ones as recommended by the city. “The four sections that were laid out were the city’s first shot at dividing this up,” La Jolla architect Robert Thiele told neighbors at a gathering last Friday, about the $26.5 million Torrey Pines Road Corridor Project. Preliminary plans call for 20 recommended improvements including sidewalks, bluff stabilization and signalization. “Eight (segments) would facilitate walkability and safety on the north side of Torrey Pines, prioritizing a crossing here at Princess Street,” Thiele said as the group stood on a street corner. Saying eight smaller Corridor segments would be less expensive to build, Thiele added: “We’ll be lucky in our lifetimes if we can finish this whole thing.
But if we can walk it, and bike it, and it can be more safe — then we’ve accomplished something.” Thiele in an e-mail said the new eight-segment idea will be presented soon to the La Jolla Traffic and Transportation Board and the La Jolla Community Planning Association. “We will also be asking the community to prioritize walkability and safety for the least amount of cost in their vote and recommendations,” Thiele’s e-mail said. At the neighborhood meeting, Andy Hamilton of WALKSanDiego, a regional, group dedicated to making neighborhoods more walkable, handed out a list of 10 “safety fixes” which can be done, including sidewalks, raised medians and bike lanes. Hamilton noted the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), the region’s primary public planning, transportation and research agency, will have funding available for innovative pedestrian safety and community walkability solutions.

high-speed road. “You could put a pedestrian push button in the median,” Hamilton suggested, noting SANDAG will be putting out a call for such projects to fund soon. “They rank these by how well they score pointwise, and innovation is one of the
things that will win you points,” he said. A HAWK signal, which has never been done in San Diego, might help score points ultimately leading to funding approval, he added. For previous La Jolla Light stories on this project, go to http://bit.ly/tproadcorridor.

Bullying and the middle school years: The case for K-8
Education Matters
By MARSHA SUTTON
All the recent media coverage on bullying reminded me of several lectures I attended a few years ago by a
UCLA psychology professor whose area of expertise is young adolescent peer relationships and school adjustment. Her lectures focused on bullying, peer group conformity among young teens, and middle school. Jaana Juvonen, chair of UCLA’s developmental psychology program, addressed bullying as it relates to the middle school years, and she offered some interesting, research-based evidence that isolating young adolescents in
separate middle school facilities may be a flawed practice. Juvonen’s research, as explained on her website, has examined “the development of some questionable peer group norms and values that seem to surface at the time when students transfer to middle school.” Juvonen also served as adjunct behavioral scientist at RAND Corp. in 2004 where she worked with colleagues to produce a book titled “Focus on the Wonder Years:

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 such 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. An article published in The International MS Journal 2009 compiled results gathered from multiple studies of endurance and strength training in MS patients. While more research is still needed, some of the findings were noteworthy. All the studies 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.
Challenges Facing the American Middle School.” According to the book’s summary, the middle school years represent a critical time for young teens who “undergo multiple physical, social-emotional and intellectual changes that shape who they are and how they function as adults. The schools young teens attend play a critical role in shaping these futures.” The summary states that “middle schools have been called the Bermuda Triangle of education and have been blamed for increases in behavior problems, teen alienation, disengagement from school, and low achievement.” ■ Onset of puberty America’s middle schools generally consist of grades six, seven and eight. These are the “middle years” — those grades between elementary school and high school, when kids are 11, 12 and 13 years old. These years are a time when adolescents experience some of the most dramatic physical changes in their lives. And with the onset of puberty can come social, emotional and psychological turmoil. According to the RAND study, alternatives to the separate 6-8 or 7-8 middle school should be considered, to reduce multiple transitions from school to school. This is particularly important at a time in students’ lives when traumatic adjustments can negatively affect healthy physical and emotional development. Juvonen, in her lecture several years ago, argued that society pulls kids out of a safe, comfortable environment — elementary school — and throws them into a
separate facility we call middle school, just at a time when they most need to remain in protective, familiar surroundings. “Right around the time that most kids are transferring to middle school, everything starts to happen,” she said in an article in TIME magazine on the RAND report. ■ A ‘holding tank’? This is a fragile time for children, and a strong case can be made that removing them from their comfort zone and putting them in a “holding tank” where they are essentially in limbo between elementary school and high school can impede developmental and academic progress and is exactly the wrong thing to do. The elementary school provides grounding for kids and offers continuity and familiarity — just the type of environment critical for children going through major changes in their lives. It’s not just the physical surroundings that provide comfort at a time of upheaval. The elementary school’s homeroom teacher, absent in most middle schools, does more than teach. He or she is the primary contact, advisor, counselor, protector, confidante, and, hopefully, mentor and role model — someone the student can trust and confide in. Without all this to lean on, inappropriate sexual behavior, drug and alcohol abuse, and bullying — particularly cyber-bullying — can escalate in the middle school years. ■ Adult oversight ‘minimal’ Witnesses, Juvonen says, rarely intervene but can thwart bullying if schools provide appropriate training
and tools. But school officials are at an immediate disadvantage when safe surroundings are removed and kids are thrown together in a new school with minimal protective adult oversight. After years of data collection and analysis, Juvonen authored a paper several years ago titled “Bullying and School Violence,” in which she noted the following: • Bullying often entails abuse of psychological strength and relies on namecalling, exclusion, threats and/or spreading of rumors. • Compared to other grade levels, middle school students report the highest rates of bullying. Victims of repeated bullying exhibit feelings of depression and either withdrawn or aggressive behavior. • Children who bully in childhood are at risk of becoming violent offenders. • Almost two-thirds of public secondary school students think a shooting could take place in their school. Socially withdrawn and passive children are at risk of getting bullied and of becoming even more withdrawn after repeated experiences of bullying. Analyses of daily incidents of bullying in middle school show that social anxiety is increased when student bystanders see someone else being bullied. A caring climate in schools — in which students belong, feel respected and listened to, and where teachers help mediate hostile incidents — can buffer safety concerns and ease distress of the entire student body.

group’s right to appeal the project to the City Council. Following the city Planning Commission’s 5-0 vote in January approving development permits and declaring that an environmental impact report was unnecessary, Joe LaCava — then president of the La Jolla planning group — appealed the decision to the City Council.

ird Rock Elementary students were treated to a spirit day assembly on April 21 at BRE as a lead-up to the school’s big May 14 gala. Students and staff wore red to show their school spirit as local teen band Neveready performed a few songs. The gala, from 5 to 11 p.m. at Anthology in Little Italy, supports enrichment programs at the school. Tickets are at www. sandi.net/birdrock. Photos by Pearl Preis
irst graders in Lorraine Turner’s class at Bird Rock Elementary School brought in spring blossoms made from recycled materials on April 22. The children were taught that Earth Day is to remind and encourage us of our responsibility as good citizens to value the world we live in and that the many items we use and throw away can be reused or recycled into something new and fun.
Students wear red and sport their “ONE” VIP badges.
Benjamin Cravatt, Jack Blount and Reagan Aalbers proudly display their Spring blossoms.

“Operations will now be run by one full-time center director for two sites, each of which will operate at 20 hours each,” she said, adding support groups will only be allowed to “buy back” an additional six hours per-center, per-week. Noting operating hours for community centers like La Jolla’s have yet to be determined, LoMedico said service cutbacks could impact community groups meeting there after-hours. “They may have to change their hours to meet during the center’s hours or move to a different location,” she said. Joe LaCava, immediate past president of La Jolla Community Planning Association, said community groups under the organization’s purview meet 14 hours a month at the rec center. Finding alternative meeting sites, particularly low-cost ones, could prove difficult and might force planning groups to ask for more donations, which “could be a conflict with what our mission is supposed to be,” he said. LoMedico added proposed park and rec reductions would also affect maintenance, as the weekly lawn-mowing schedule for city parks would now be performed biweekly. But she noted the situation has improved substantially since she was ordered initially to trim $11.4 million from the department’s budget, which would have closed 11 recreation centers entirely. La Jolla Parks & Recreation Inc., a nonprofit which advises LoMedico’s staff on the rec center operations and has in the past raised money to pay for extra staffing to keep the center open longer. The new president, Doug Fitzgerald, said it was too early to comment on what might happen. Meanwhile, Doug Dawson, president of nonprofit Friends of La Jolla Library, said the present city budget-cutting proposal gives him a real sense of déjà vu. “The budget cuts we are facing right now are not as severe as they were in 2005 when libraries were proposed to be closed on Sundays and scaled back on Fridays and Saturdays,” he said, but he added the handwriting was on the wall even then. “Tax dollars are not going to be able to support all these public services, particularly library services.” So what Friends did then — and will do now — is go back to the drawing board. “We’re going to return to a combination of seeking private philanthropy and working to create an endowment gift to La Jolla Library,” said Dawson, adding Friends has opted to meet in an all-day “retreat” soon to regroup and devise a game plan for combating cuts. “We’re going to discuss sustainability, with the long-term endowing of this library so it’s

not faced with the short-term ups and downs of the economy or the city of San Diego’s budget woes,” he said. Acknowledging “these cuts are so drastic it’s going to be difficult to make up for them with Friends and other group’s support alone,” Marion Moss Hubbard, senior public information officer for the San Diego Public Library, said a plan is being devised to help soften the blow by combining nearby branches to offer alternative service with a little extra drive time. “Branch libraries would be paired on a schedule of either Tuesday and Thursday or Wednesday and Friday, open alternate Saturdays with the central library open each day of the week,” she said adding, “We know this is painful. None of us want to make these cuts: But these are the times that we’re in.” In La Jolla, seven beach fire pits at La Jolla Shores maintained at an annual $4,550 cost also are jeopardized once again by the mayor’s proposal. The city has taken an all-or-nothing approach to saving fire pits, saying it can’t be done piecemeal. But an effort is underway to once again save all 185 beach fire pits including La Jolla’s, which could again be funded by the La Jolla Community Foundation. Joe Terzi, president/ CEO of the San Diego Convention & Visitor’s Bureau, said fire pit supporters are regrouping and rethinking fundraising. “We have committed to funding the effort, working with the San Diego Foundation,” he said, estimating $150,000 will need to be raised. “We’re in the middle of planning fundraising efforts. There may be a need for private funds or a public-private partnership. We need to work out a long-term plan.” Terzi added public beach fire pits are worth saving. “It’s iconic — it’s a local favorite,” he said. “It’s also an important thing for us as a tourist destination.”

Academic League crown goes to LJHS By RogeR Li Commonly known as some of the brightest students on campus, La Jolla High’s Academic League members channel their expansive knowledge into winning trivia-style competitions across the county. Recently, LJHS Academic League beat long-standing rival, The Bishop’s School, in San Diego’s city championships. It was a close match all night, but La Jolla High edged out Bishop’s 102-83 during the last six minutes. Academic League matches center on answering questions that cover traditional school subjects: math, chemistry, literature, biology, and history. Politics and pop culture are also included. Matches test both knowledge and reflexes. Teams that “buzz” the quickest are usually the teams to beat.

The team is then read a bonus worth up to five points for their players alone.” All Academic League members follow a regular practice schedule (one day each for Novice, JV, and Varsity). To prepare for the Bishop’s match, Herman says that the team rallied itself with a meal at Souplantation (a team tradition) and “some pretty intense pep talks. We knew we were good enough — we just had to be at the top of our game.” The tension at the game was heightened by the friendly rivalry between the two schools. Bishop’s and La Jolla High have traditionally competed against each other in sports and extracurriculars. Academic League is no excep-
tion. The rivalry intensified ever since Richard Del Rio, former history teacher and Academic League coach at La Jolla High, defected to Bishop’s. Next up for the team is a semifinals match today against Eastlake High. If the team wins, then La Jolla High will go into a second match later against the other semifinal winner for the county championship. The match will be broadcast on ITV Cable Channel 16.

UCSD duo’s book suggests ways to close job gap By Kathy Day kday@lajollalight.com Put two educators who develop programs for extended learning in a room with an economist who studies technology and innovation, and you’re bound to generate an interesting discussion. In one particular case, the discussion evolved into the book: “Closing America’s Job Gap: How to Grow Companies and Land Good Jobs in the Age of Innovation.” Its authors are Mary Walshok, UCSD’s associate vice chancellor for public programs and dean of the University Extension program; Henry DeVries, UCSD assistant dean of Extension, and Tapan Munroe, an economist who specializes in environmental economics and analysis of the high-tech industry. Walshok said she was getting ready to write a book about innovation and in talking with DeVres and with inspiration from Munroe, they decided that innovation alone wasn’t the right topic. She had just returned from Washington, D.C., and talks about the state of the economy when they decided to key in on the fact that “America is not putting people to work,” she said in a recent interview, with DeVries interjecting, “It’s a job-

less recovery.” “Too many Americans expect the old jobs to come back,” Walshok said. Instead, they should be looking at “what jobs are there and what job can I create for myself.” As they talked, both said, the book came into focus: How to close the jobs gap. “We built on our knowledge as educators,” she said, looking at retooling, re-skilling and re-educating. “We know that’s going to be essential across all jobs careers.” Instead of thinking just about innovation, they wrote about how technology can change careers. They split the book into two sections. One analyzes the job gap and “the disparity between the good jobs being created by small busines-
innovation in the U.S. and the lack of American workers with the skills to fill these jobs.” The other examines San Diego as a case study, looking at how it has used its universities, entrepreneurial spirit, collaboration and training to build its economy and applies those lessons to the workforce. The San Diego example, they write, shows that if a region is serious “about innovation and job creation” they should bring together the “research community, the entrepreneurs and investors, the economic developers, and the educators and workforce-training organizations.” The work wraps up with an extensive addendum they called “Deeper Reflections on Innovation and Job Creation.” Sixteen sectors are creating jobs

today, DeVries said, citing healthinformation technology, data mining, and Spanish-English translation and interpretation. And in some instances, there is a shortage of qualified employees. He pointed to Northrop Grumman, which has hundreds of openings in San Diego and Qualcomm, whose founder recently testified before Congress about the need for visa programs so they can find enough engineers and technical people. The book tells individual stories of people closing the jobs gap. He cited one woman, who had been trained a teacher. Unable to find a job in education, she took a position as a hotel desk clerk. Startled by the amount of waste the hotel generated, she started a recycling program and found a program offering a certificate in Sustainable Business Practices. After landing an internship in Pasadena with Waste Less Living, she is now with a sales consult company, she teaching others – including children – how to reduce waste. The goal of programs that offer specialized training is to help people build a bridge from where they were to where the economy is going, Walshok noted. DeVreis added that their book is
not just about training the workers. Employers, too, need to be aware of the jobs gap and offer time off for training as well as funding to improve and update their employees’ skills. The interviews they have done about the book across the country have reinforced the fact that “everything in America is local,” Walshok said. “If you are going to solve the jobs problem in Toledo, you will have to have a different set of skills than if you are in San Diego.” That points up the fallacy, she added, that we think national policies can solve the problem. Rather, she added, the national policy “needs to empower the local community.” But closer to home, DeVries said people need to take charge of their futures by updating their skills and understanding technology. Employers, he said, “want people who are willing to learn.” A bachelor’s degree, the pair agreed, “is a license to learn for the world of work.” But a specialized certificate these days may be the icing on the cake that sells the employer on the prospective hire’s knowledge of today’s workplace.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Clean Air Lawn brings new focus Clean Air Lawn & Garden Care, based in La Jolla, is bringing a new focus to the industry: sustainability. “The No. 1 thing that we are is a non-polluting, gasfree service,” said Ankist Zadeyan, owner-operator of the local franchise. “We provide excellent groundskeeping, lawn maintenance and gardening, but we do it without polluting and smelly gasoline and with less noise.” Zadeyan noted his equipment is electric-powered, running off battery packs. Clean Air also uses highgrade fertilizer. Said Zadeyan: “Everyone else uses chemical or toxic fertilizers: We don’t.” Additionally, said Zadeyan, Clean Air “works with irrigation systems to make sure we’re not wasting any water.” Services Clean Air provides include organic fertilization and soil treatment customized to region and
soil type, weed control, trimming of turf areas adjacent to curbs, sidewalks, driveways and patios, edging at the start of service each season and maintained through the year, as well as blowing of sidewalks, patios, porches and driveways with each mowing. “We’re a local, friendly, personable service,” said Zadeyan, adding employees are fluent in English and foreign languages. Clean Air Lawn & Garden Care serves primarily coastal and central San Diego
providing a comprehensive list of services including best- practices gardening, water-wise management and eco-friendly, safe fertilizers and soil amendments. The company services residential accounts, homeowner associations, commercial properties, apartment complexes, schools like Gillispie in La Jolla, churches and retirement communities. Accessible turf areas are mowed per customer-service agreement. Grass clippings are mulched when possible, composted on site, or removed to an organic waste-recycling center. “We’re also competitively priced,” said Zedayan. “We do this without any carbon footprint. The technology we provide leads to sustainable landscape maintenance.” For more information call (858)736-6316 or visit www.cleanairlawncaresandiego.com.
La Jolla sisters create Sweet life La Jolla locals and sisters Theresa Anderson and Julie O’Brien are keeping snail mail alive, one greeting card at a time. Their desire to work together, their passion for paper and their love of La Jolla inspired them to open their stationery boutique, Sweet Paper, in an adorable little cottage on La Jolla Boulevard. “We love all things paper, firmly believe in the handwritten note, and are obsessed with letterpress,” said Julie. “Between the two of us, we have lived in San Francisco, Boston, and New York. We knew the kind of stationery that was out there and were not finding it in La Jolla. We decided to bring it here ourselves.” Sweet Paper carries an array of fine stationery and gift items ranging from greeting cards and letter writing sets to jewelry and Jonathan Adler pottery. The sisters source goods for their shop both nationally and locally. “We continually search for

love the look on their faces when they pick up the finished product.” “It’s true,” says Theresa, “and that feeling extends to any custom stationery project we work on.

Sometimes, we just need to say ‘Thanks’ Our View A couple of pats on the back are due this week: n First, we want to throw some kudos to the hardworking parents, teachers — and the students — who are trying everything they can think of to make sure their schools don’t get hurt by the impending budget cuts. Even as we went to press on Tuesday, school board members were holding a press conference on the “doomsday” budget that could mean cuts of $35 million to $50
million more than the $114 million they’ve already planned for. We’ve seen La Jolla High’s Conquer the Cuts campaign, online auctions and galas and Muirlands Rocks, the great family-fun day set for this Sunday from 4 to 7 p.m., being used to bring dollars to their schools. Their youngsters have gotten into the act too — holding rallies and bake sales to creating art being bid on at auctions. It’s sad they have to work so hard,
donors helping drive to Conquer the Cuts at LJHs COmmunity View By Beth Penny And dAnA irwin Chairs, LJHS Conquer the Cuts Committee
We are very pleased with the “Conquer the Cuts” campaign despite the news that the school budget cuts may be worse than expected. Though we have not yet reached our goal of $200,000, we have enjoyed overseeing the outpouring of support for La Jolla High School. In addition to participation from parents, we have had donations from students, teachers, and community members. Students have had pep rallies and many are wearing “Conquer the Cuts” wristbands. We had a great day at Rubio’s on April 13 where 20 percent of LJHS transactions were donated to the cause. Grandparent Val Frager, whose four children attended LJHS in the 1970s and ‘80s, donated in honor of four of her grandchildren who are seniors this year: Victoria Frager will attend Harvard; James Hixon will attend USC; Jillian Frager will attend Stanford and Katie Frager (Torrey Pines) will attend USF. Will $200,000 be enough if the budget deficit grows as predicted it might? The answer is really no, however, we are truly blessed to have the expertise of Principal Dana Shelburne who is committed to making sure that the students’ academic experience at La Jolla High will not be impacted by the impending financial burdens. He has become expert at efficiency and prioritizing the
most important needs in operating our high school, which, despite many years of creative budgeting, remains among the most prestigious high schools in our state. In addition, the members of the Foundation of La Jolla High School are loyally dedicated to finding innovative ways, such as the “Conquer the Cuts” campaign, to engage and inform the families and community of La Jolla to rally when the going gets tough. All of the funds raised from Conquer the Cuts will be maintained by the Foundation of La Jolla High. The specific distribution of these funds will be based on the school’s priority needs once the budget is clear for the academic year. The Foundation has succeeded in funding many major projects throughout the years including restoring and improving athletic fields, the auditorium, technology and campus beautification. This year the Foundation was asked to fund items that historically you would expect your tax dollars to provide: textbooks, technology, classroom equipment, teaching materials, school supplies, campus maintenance, and coaches and uniforms for our athletic teams. With projected budget cuts of $325,000-plus for the next school year, every Conquer the Cuts donation will be well used. To donate, or for more information, contact the Foundation of La Jolla High at (858) 5511250 or visit our website at www.ljhs.sandi.net/Foundation.
but throughout our community the goal has been to assure that the students don’t feel the cuts in the classroom. We’re lucky most of our families have the wherewithal to pitch in, even if it’s in a small way. For those that can’t, we’re thankful we live in a community that cares. n Kudos also go to Councilwoman Sherri Lightner. With a lot of challenges on the council’s plate, she still stays true to her word to do the best for her constituents — even
if we don’t always agree. Behind the scenes, she’s regularly pushed for pothole repair and when the Light joined the push, she stepped up and organized a “Pothole Event” for today. We’ll see city crews around town today, filling as many potholes as they can get to, particularly along the major thoroughfares. Thanks to our councilwoman a few tires and rims may be saved. We just hope she keeps the heat on!
redistricting, budget, potholes keeping us busy COmmunity Leader’s View
By sherrilightner Councilwoman, First District
This is a pivotal time that will shape San Diego politics for years to come. Every 10 years, city council district boundaries are redrawn based on the latest census data by a Redistricting Commission made up of San Diego citizens. This year, the Redistricting Commission will also create a new ninth council district, which voters approved along with the strong mayor form of government in 2010. The Redistricting Commission is holding hearings to gather public input on future council district boundaries. Residents of Council District One are strongly encouraged to attend the upcoming hearing on May 11 at 6
p.m. at the La Jolla Library, 7555 Draper Ave., to speak out and ensure our community’s interests are respected with the drawing of the new district boundaries. For more information on redistricting, please visit www.sandiego.gov/redistricting. Meanwhile, the hearings for the Fiscal Year 2012 budget are fast approaching. The mayor recently released his proposal, and I will be working to reduce negative impacts to neighborhoods before the final budget is approved in June. Many of us value our rec centers and libraries dearly, and preserving their hours of operation is a priority, along with protecting public safety and restoring browned-out fire engines. Additional information about the budget is available on my website, www.sandiego.gov/cd1. If you have ideas, suggestions, or comments on other alternatives for closing the city’s

Let’s bring back dancing to Village The editor has asked for ideas that would help to restore the joyful character of the Village. One idea follows. There was a time a few decades ago that La Jolla had street dances on Saturday nights. Drinking, noise, drugs and fights ruined the endeavor. Let’s change the rules and make it a square dance on sunny Sunday afternoons, something easy for all ages like the Virginia Reel. The line could
be a block long and costumes optional. Volunteer organizations would be needed along with donations. Businesses that are open on Sunday would certainly profit. Something like this would spark new interest, restore the camaraderie and bring back happy times. Where else could children and grandparents “trip the light fantastic” together? The Village might become alive again. Patricica Weber La JoLLan since 1953

Council eases rules on fireworks By DAve schwAB daves@lajollalight.com The ongoing battle over regulation of coastal fireworks took a new, more lenient turn as city council voted 6-2 and 5-3 Monday on changes that could make it easier for communities to get fireworks permits. The action, which requires a second vote before becoming effective, will amend the Municipal Code to exempt fireworks displays on city-owned property from obtaining special-event permits or from making the Parks and Recreation Department consider traffic impacts in granting park-use permits for private events. Council members David Alvarez and Marti Emerald voted no on exempting fireworks from some conditions of park-use permits, and Todd Gloria joined them on opposing exempting fireworks from obtaining specialevent permits. Introduced by the City Attorney’s office, the budget item clarifies that fireworks displays where people gather on city-owned property are exempt from the special event permit requirement, “unless the fireworks display also involves the sale of food or alcohol at certain non-exempt locations.” According to the City Attorney’s Office, officials with the Parks and Recreation staff for years have only checked to make sure the number of people expected at a fireworks event fits the size of the property, so the changes only bring the municipal code in line with current practice. Traffic and environmental issues were not
at stake for the operators of the shows, as far as the city was concerned, City Attorney Jan Goldsmith said. Those who put the shows on might have separate environmental obligations, Goldsmith said. But that didn’t satisfy Environmental attorney Marco Gonzalez of the Coastal Environmental Rights Foundation (CERF), who argued that the city’s position it easier for groups to host coastal fireworks was a thinly veiled attempt to “legally sidestep” a pending lawsuit challenging the city’s failure to conduct environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for the annual La Jolla Cove Fourth of July fireworks display. “If you exempt fireworks shows from the municipal code for special events, you eviscerate the ability to recover the cost of providing public safety services — lifeguards, fire and police — for what are essentially privately organized events,” Gonzalez contended the city has the burden to prove there is “no possibility of fireworks ever causing significant impacts on the environment.” Bruce Resnik, former director of San Diego environmental watchdog group Coastkeeper, concurred with Gonzalez’ position. He testified there is a growing body of evidence that fireworks displays have negative impacts on birds and marine wildlife and on the ocean environment itself.

La Jolla Country Day basketball standout Kelsey Plum was honored as California’s Sophomore of the Year this past week by CAL-HI Sports.

Torreys win Lions tourney title The La Jolla Country Day baseball team made it two titles in a row last week as they topped Monte Vista 7-5 in the championship game of the Lions Tournament’s 5A Division. Jackson Volle took the mound for the second time of the week and earned his second win, pitching three innings. Sam Ayala entered the game in the fourth inning with a 7-3 lead and held the Monarchs off for three innings giving way to Dustin Hughes with the lead down to 7-5. Hughes earned the save in relief, pitching a scoreless seventh which was highlighted by two great plays by Austin Rooke at sec-
ond base. Anthony Torres, Frankie Brown, and Hughes each had two hits on the day to pace the offense. Last season the team won the 3A division last year. The Torreys are currently 16-4 overall on the season and 1-1 in league.
Vikings win one Lions game The La Jolla Vikings varsity baseball team played three close games, coming away with one victory in last week’s annual Lions’ Club Tournament. See SPoRTS, A22

Big plays highlight LJYB action With four weeks remaining in the regular season, the teams in La Jolla Youth Baseball are paying attention to the standings. Coach John Zlatic’s Pony team RBC remains undefeated thanks in part to the multiple home runs from Luke Bucon and Brandon Bonham. Ace pitching and big bats explain the perfect record of Morgan Stanley in Mustang, led by Coach Bob Meyerott. Pinto baseball is always exciting as evidenced by a three-way tie between unbeaten Alexandria Real Estate (Coach Dan Ryan), Jeff Lang Homes (Coach Doug Blackburn) and Scoma Pediatric Dentist (Coach Bryce Goldman) with some showdown games being played this weekend. Some might argue that Shetland is where the action is with a 12-way tie of perfect records and two grand slams every inning – guaranteed! You can’t call it tee-ball anymore because they are now using a pitching machine for the second half of the season and these 5- and 6-year-olds are really slugging the ball. The “Player of the Week” is Mustang standout Michael Campagna Jr. with Cass Street. Michael hit two of his league-leading three home runs last week and closed out their win against Voices for Children with six strikeouts. Underdog Mission Imprintables handed Cass

From SportS, A20 The Vikings fell to Desert Oasis 5-2 in the tourney opener. Kevin Usselman drove in both runs for La Jolla and Jake Linsky pitched well, allowing only two earned runs in five innings. La Jolla rebounded from the opening loss with a 2-1 come from behind win against Morse. Tyson Youngs led the way on the mound and at the plate, as he threw six innings, allowing only one run and striking out six batters. He was also 2-for-3 at the plate and
scored the winning run when Spencer Manlapig hit a sacrifice fly to right field in the bottom of the 6th inning. Bobby Schuman had 2 doubles in the winning effort. Bradley Zimmer struck out the side in the 7th to earn his first save of the year. La Jolla jumped out to a 3-0 lead against Nevada Union before eventually falling 8-3. Schuman was 3-for-4 at the plate. Youngs and Zimmer each collected two hits for the Vikings. Here are last week’s scores:

Blayney Colmore picks up the pen to write works in retirement Blayney Colmore is an Episcopal priest who was ordained in 1966. He worked in parishes in Akron, Ohio; Washington, D.C. and Dedham, Mass., before coming to be rector of St. James Bythe-Sea in 1997. Blayney In 1996, he completed Colmore 30 years of parish ministry and retired to write on a full-time basis. He has penned three books, most recently a novel, “Meander: Wooing Ms. Maudie,” which was germinated by a 1984 family sabbatical in Zimbabwe. He is married to interior designer, Lacey, who has worked with Ross Thiele & Son in La Jolla for the past 20 years. The couple has five children scattered across the country and three grandchildren (soon to be four.) “When I retired, we went to live in our 1830 farmhouse in rural Vermont,” Colmore said. ”Our first winter made it clear that San Diego had wrecked us for any further Vermont winters. Since 1997, we have spent the cold half of the year in our apartment in the Shores. I hike up to the Museum of Contemporary Art most days where I write, thanks to its director Hugh Davies who named me Writer-In-Residence. It is stirring to hear the hours chimed from the tower of the church across the street from where I spent those happy years, especially so because the church is being so ably led through these strange times by Randal Gardner, a gracious and engaging rector.” What brought you to La Jolla? The search committee of St. James By-the-Sea brought me here after their rector, Benjamin Lavey, died. I had doubts about making the shift from a New England Yankee “low” church to this rather Latin “high” church. Those doubts were washed away by my first swim in the Pacific. I am so grateful that they were. What are your favorite places to go in La Jolla? I love to visit the ocean, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Brick & Bell Café, St. James Church, Piatti’s restaurant and the Museum Café.

Six soloists will star in Bach’s ‘The Passion According to St. Matthew’ performing with La Jolla Symphony & Chorus this weekend By Jenna Jay wo orchestras, adult and children choruses, plus vocal and instrumental soloists will all be part of the La Jolla Symphony & Chorus’ Saturday and Sunday performances of J.S. Bach’s “The Passion According to St. Matthew.” The colossal event is a timely performance for the Easter season, as the piece is based on the Biblical story of the Last Supper and Jesus’ crucifixion as taken from the Book of Matthew, Chapters 26-27. Notable soloists joining the LJS&C for the concert include Jon Lee Keenan as the “Evangelist,” along with soprano Angela Cadelago, mezzo-soprano Janelle
T
DeStefano, tenor Benjamin Bliss, baritone Gregorio Gonzalez, bass Abdiel Gonzalez, and The North Coast Singers children’s choir. “This is a really big concert,” said LJS&C choral director David Chase. “ ‘Saint Matthew Passion’ is not performed very often in San Diego County because it’s David such a large Chase piece —the largest single work that Bach ever composed — and it was arguably his favorite.” The masterwork was first performed on Good Friday in 1727
if you go
at the Thomaskirche in Leipzig, Germany where Bach was cantor. The LJS&C and guests have been preparing their version since January 2011. “To do a piece like this is kind of like being in charge of planning the D-Day invasion of Normandy,” Chase joked, reporting that all of the groups inJohann volved learned s. Bach their parts separately before coming together during the final week of rehearsals. “The first time we’ll have all of the performers together at
the same time in the same room is Monday before the concert. It’s like putting all the pieces of the puzzle in separately for the two-and-ahalf hour-production. “Because it’s so dramatic, because it’s almost like an opera, we’re going to keep the lights out and give the audience supertitles to follow the whole thing. It should flow very much like a movie or an opera. “It’s simply fantastic music … it’s gorgeous and beautiful music … it has an amazing flow of drama from beginning to end. I hope that’s what audiences go home with, as well as the inviting love of Johann Sebastian Bach.”
What to listen for
■ What: ‘The Passion According to St. Matthew” from La Jolla Symphony & Chorus’ ■ When: 7:30 p.m. April 30; 3 p.m. May 1 ■ Pre-concert lecture: One hour prior ■ Where: Mandeville Auditorium at UCSD ■ Admission: $29-$15 ■ contact: (858) 534-4637 ■ Website: lajollasymphony.com
■ Bach’s setting falls into two huge parts. The first tells of the Last Supper, the betrayal of Christ by Judas, and Christ’s seizure by the authorities. The second part tells of the trial, Peter’s denial, the crucifixion, and the burial. Bach’s deployment of his varied forces is imaginative, and individual characters, such as the Evangelist and Jesus, emerge in different ways. But it is the changing function of the chorus that may be the work’s most striking feature. At times the chorus is a crowd surging uneasily through the streets; at other times it can be the disciples or an angry shrieking mob. This fluid identity of the chorus is one of the most original features of the work. David Chase conducts the La Jolla — Source: La Jolla Symphony & Chorus symphony & Chorus. COURTESY PHOTOS

Quilters donate ‘hugs’ to warm patients in Alzheimer’s study
La Jolla Cultural Partners
By KirBy BrooKs What’s a quilter to do when her family and friends have all the quilts they need? In the case of Jeffree Itrich, a UCSD communications specialist with the Department of Neurosciences’ Alzheimer’s Disease Cooperative Study, you use the quilts for a good cause. Itrich, who lost her mother to severe dementia, set out to create a quilt donation program for the patients in the Alzheimer’s study in January 2010. By that September, when news of the donation program appeared in the American Association of Retired Persons Bulletin, Itrich had received 100 or so quilts. The interviewer (a quilter with whom Itrich formed a fast friendship) warned Itrich that her life would change after the article published, and change it did. “The first day after the AARP piece, I received 40 emails.

Jeffree (her parents were expecting a third son) itrich poses in her office surrounded by quilts ready to be sent to patients in the Alzheimer’s study. Kirby brooKs and I eventually handed that part of the project over to them,” Itrich said. Although the momentum has since slowed, the project’s e-mail address still receives daily messages. “It goes in waves, but we get 10-20 quilts a week on average,” Itrich said, before looking into her database to find out the exact number.
As of April 12, 2011: 820 quilts were donated for the patients in the study (a collaboration between UCSD and the National Institute on Aging). Itrich unearths a folder bursting with letters from quilters and patients alike. Leafing through the stack, she pulls out a four-page letter from a quilter and sever-
al notes from study participants’ family members. (Some of the quilts come with labels on them and Itrich keeps a detailed log so recipients can communicate their gratitude if they wish.) She doesn’t know who gets the quilts — their information is protected by HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) — but the project has sparked communication between those coping with Alzheimer’s. “As a quilter, I know what quilts do for people. A quilt is like a hug,” said Itrich, adding that many of the quilters have been holding onto grief from experiencing Alzheimer’s in their family’s own lives. “In many cases, they have been grieving for years. By quilting to cheer up participants of Alzheimer’s research studies around the country, they can be a small part of the cure. Participating is kind of a catharsis for them.” Itrich said that the quilts also give people a way to express their appreciation to

Doctors open the brain to deliver nerve growth factor directly into the portion of brain affected by Alzheimer’s disease. (Read more details at http://adcs. org/Studies/NGF.aspx) “When I first brought up the donation program to the research study’s director, she thought I lost my mind! ‘Where would you get all of the quilts?’ she asked. But I know how generous quilters are.”
In the beginning, she tried to limit the donations to traditional quilts, but has since abandoned that rule. Her office is packed with quilts of all shapes, sizes and colors, ranging from handstitched and hand-tied to machine-stitched quilts. “Alzheimer’s clinics are notoriously cold. The need for quilts wanes in the summer months and picks back up again once temperatures cool down,” she said. Since both women and men participate in the study, she makes sure there are quilts featuring golf memorabilia, Mack trucks, John Deere tractors, musical notes, and even outer space images! When will there be enough quilts? According to Itrich, only when there is a cure for Alzheimer’s. “The quilts comfort in ways we can’t imagine and the research will continue until the disease can be stopped or reversed,” she said, before handing her assistant another batch of vibrantly colored quilts to brighten the lives of participants involved in the study.

Brockton Villa’s fabulous fireplace, circa 1920
Brockton Villa oozes charm and flavor for a true taste of La Jolla
Choice New york Steak
By WILL PARSON he fireplace at Brockton Villa is perhaps the most apparent hint to the beach bungalow’s storied past. It’s decorated with massive abalone shells that were collected at a time when they were plentiful in local waters and could easily reach a large diameter — long before overharvesting and current laws against their collection. Cemented in place over the original fireplace, the shiny shells represent a decorating fad that was widespread locally in the 1920s. It has since become harder to find. With many similar homes not lasting through the decades, the La Jolla Historical Society honored the renovated Brockton Villa in 2006. It remains one of the few glimpses into a bygone era. The restaurant is celebrating 20 years since the former site of Pannikin Coffee House was

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com. Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story. ■ This week: Brockton Villa’s Truffle Red Bliss Potato Salad renovated and renamed Brockton Villa — a name first given to the former residential cottage more than 100 years ago. A recent refresh has brought an updated feel to Brockton on its special anniversary, and this summer is the second in a row in which the restaurant is offering a dinner menu. Chef Mareyja Sisbarro points to the Ginger-Chili Glazed Natural
Salmon that she served for the first time at Brockton Villa last year, as a point of pride. Among the abundant array of seafood options, on a menu with a generally Mediterranean feel, the BBQ Pork Ribs also deserve a look. For an appetizer, try the Summer Shrimp Butter Leaf Wraps. Sisbarro says, “It fills you up but doesn’t make you too stuffed. It’s really fresh and summery.” And with summer approaching, the cottage above Coast Boulevard seems like an excellent way to take in the ocean breeze. With its airy main room and wrap-around porch, the original builders knew what they were doing back in 1894. At that time it was perfect for weekend getaways from the fledgling city of San Diego. And the current dining experience adds to a lingering charm from those early days.

Event proceeds will benefit Promises2Kids, a San Diego-based non-profit dedicated to breaking the cycle of child abuse through prevention, education and advocacy. The Doobie Brothers have been entertaining fans with their soulinfused boogie rock and remarkable group harmonies for more than four decades. Currently on the Doobie Brothers North America Tour 2011, the band’s memorable hits include: Listen To The Music, Jesus Is Just Alright, Rockin’ Down The Highway, China Grove, Black Water, What A Fool Believes, Echoes of Love, and Long Train Runnin’ to name a few. Rocking out under the stars, attendees will get up close and personal with The Doobie Brothers and feast on a sit down dinner prepared by the chefs from the Hyatt Regency La Jolla. Guests can also bid on a number of one-of-a-kind silent and live auction packages, including a sneak peek dinner for 12 to Brian Malarkey’s new Asian-inspired restaurant Burlap, two tickets to the upcoming Grand Slam tennis tournaments — the Australian Open, the Roland Garros, Wimbledon, and US Open.

Mariners Club to present fashion show tonight

By Blair Brice Student Intern Each April, the Mariners Club of La Jolla High School joins forces with local clothiers for a fashion show extravaganza. This year, the event is set for 6 p.m. April 28 at Parker Auditorium. Tickets at the door are $5. Founded in the 1980s by Melanie Jones, an African-American student who wanted to raise money for her own scholarship, the Mariners Club has interviewed college fundinghopefuls ever since. The club has grown to nearly 50 members while keeping a polished legacy of school service. World Language teacher Elisa Savoia has served as the club’s advisor for many years. She said she loves its rich history and encourages members to embody the high standards for which the club is revered. Mariners began planning the fashion show in January and has since dedicated great time and effort to perfecting the dances performed in various scenes, each of which is
sponsored by companies including Banana Republic, LuLu Lemon, LF, and Victoria’s Secret, just to name a few. The final product, organized by club president Melissa Pouk and vicepresident Carey Kennedy (both class of 2011), is sure to be a high-energy show falling nothing short of Mariners’ high standards. In years past, the minimal fee at the door has raised more than $2,000 from impressive admissions, which goes toward funding the college education of an academically successful, underprivileged LJHS senior. “This year’s collegiate theme will hopefully attract an audience for not just one, but two shows. The fashion show is Mariners’ biggest on-campus project during the year (aside from the women’s career seminar and the women’s defense conference) and it’s for a good cause!” said club member (and hopeful president of the 2012 school year) Luna Izpisua-Rodriguez, an LJHS junior.

Potters ready their bowls for hunger benefit in La Jolla Area potters are busy crafting hundreds of handmade bowls to hold the breads and soups to be served at the fifth annual Empty Bowls event, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, May 7 at the La Jolla United Methodist Church, 6063 La Jolla Blvd. Guests can choose a bowl from hundreds on display (for a suggested donation of $20 at the door) and have it filled with soup and breads donated by favorite local restaurants.

W.W. II veteran Kenneth Haygood prepares for the trip of a lifetime By Kirby Brooks When La Jolla resident Kenneth Haygood’s phone rang near the end of March and the voice on the other line asked him if he would like to visit the World War II Monument in Washington, D.C., the W.W. II veteran brushed it off as a pitch from a telemarketer. But, much to his surprise, Haygood, a semi-retired psychologist, was reminded that he signed up for the trip in 2008. At the time, Haywood said, he never thought it would result in anything, much less an allexpenses-paid visit to our nation’s capital. The May trip will be hosted by the Honor Flight Network, a group whose goal is to fulfill the dreams of W.W. II veterans to travel to see the Monument for free. According to the organization’s 2008 statistics, W.W. II veterans are passing away at the rate of some 1,000 per day — many without ever seeing the Monument in their honor. The inaugural Honor Flight took place in May 2005, when six planes transported W. W. II veterans from Springfield, Ohio to visit the Memorial. That August, the organization paired with Honor Air in Henderson, North Carolina to form the Honor Flight Network. Once
Kenneth Haygood said he is delighted and honored to be leaving for Washington, D.C. next week with 29 other San Diego veterans of W.W. II. Kirby Brroks the Network has completed its efforts with W.W. II veterans, it will focus on the Korean War, and subsequently, Vietnam War veterans. Along with 30 other San Diego-area veterans, Haygood will embark upon his Honor Flight tour on May 6. The veterans and 15 guardians (one per two veterans) will meet at San Diego International Airport for a direct flight to Baltimore/Washington International Airport. After checking in at BWI Hilton, they will be treated to a welcome dinner in the Aqua Private Room. The group of veterans — all wearing their Honor Flight shirts — will gather in the hotel lobby the follow-
ing morning to embark on their visit to the W.W. II Memorial. The monument unites the Mall joining the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. The western end of the W.W. II Memorial features a wall of 4,000 stars, each one commemorating every 100 Americans who died in the war. Designed by Friedrich St. Florian, the 7.4-acre Memorial surrounds the restored Rainbow Pool. After touring the Memorial, Haygood and others will stop at the Lincoln, Vietnam and Korean Memorials, and then visit Hains Point. There, at the southern tip of East Potomac Park, they will eat lunch and refuel before

visiting Arlington National Cemetery to witness the Changing of the Guard. The veterans’ whirlwind tour will also feature stops at the Women’s Memorial, Iwo Jima Statue, and the Air Force and Navy Monuments. Born in 1928, Haygood may seem too young to be a W.W. II veteran, but he served in Japan. When graduating from La Jolla High School, the war orphan (his rather died of injuries sustained in W.W. I six months before his birth) was awarded the American Legion Certificate. The Certificate stated, “In recognition of the possession of those high qualities of Honor, Courage, Scholarship, Leadership, Service, Companionship and Character which are necessary for the preservation and protection of the fundamental institutions of our government and the advancement of society.” Haygood joked “after being described with such accolades, I felt had to serve my country, so I enlisted in the Army.” He signed on Oct. 5, 1946 and was discharged on March 28, 1948. As he ex-

plained, the Japanese accepted the surrender terms on Aug. 14, 1945, but although this ended many temporary powers granted to the Government through wartime legislation, it didn’t formally terminate the state of war. President Truman signed legislation terminating the war with Germany on Oct. 19, 1951 and a peace treaty with Japan was signed on Sept. 8, 1951. It went into effect on April 28, 1952.

ed. The 187th RCT was sent to Korea in 1950 and served in combat. After his discharge, Haygood earned a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and served as university dean. He left academia to become a psychologist to senior management of businesses and non-profit organizations. Haygood and his wife of 57 years, Noreen, have three children and six grandchildren. The couple serves as San Diego Police Department Crisis Intervention volunteers and Haygood was recently honored as the San Diego Police Department Crisis Intervention Volunteer of the Year.

Italo Scanga ‘returns’ to life via his works now on exhibit By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Born in southern Italy, Italo Scanga spent most of his life in the U.S., transforming found objects from nature, flea markets, and thrift stores into art. As a boy, he worked with a furniture maker and a man who carved images of saints. He was 14 when his family moved to Detroit. By the time he was 29, he had an MFA in sculpture from Michigan State, and was well on his way to an illustrious career that included exhibitions in museums and galleries around the world. He spent his last 23 years in La Jolla, a UCSD professor known for his mentoring, his cooking, and his

charisma. Blessed with a sense of history and humor, he loved color, icons, and surprising combinations of materials, and he crammed an amazing amount of sculpture, painting, and ceramics into his 69 years. He died in his Pacific Beach studio in 2001, cooking sausages for family and friends. Now, 10 years later, the Oceanside Museum of Art is presenting “Looking for a Miracle?” an exhibit that focuses on Scanga’s ability to turn mundane things (like potatoes, kitchenware and hand tools) into “miraculous” celebrations of life. Two of his five children, co-presidents of the board of the Italo Scanga Foundation, were present at the April 2 preview of the exhibition, which features sculptural works owned by the Foundation. Joseph Scanga, a San Francisco architect, introduced the exhibit. Katherine Scanga, who worked with her father in La Jolla and now manages international programs at the Rhode Island School of Design where he once taught, said the artist created the Foundation before his death. “He died suddenly, and left four buildings full of objects and collections. I don’t think he ever threw anything away in his life!” she said. “He wanted to preserve his work and assist aspiring young artists, so one of the
things the Foundation has done is set up a scholarship fund for undergraduate art students at UCSD.” Glass artist Dale Chihuly, Scanga’s friend and colleague for more than three decades, is chairman of the Foundation’s board. “My father loved people,” Katherine Scanga said. “Art was his whole world, but he surrounded himself with interesting people. And he really was a great artist.”

Geoff Relf and Gordon the Clam share memories with UCSD Arts Library
Geoff Relf, author and illustrator of ‘Blue Planet Blues’
By Jenna Jay Gordon the Giant Clam with ESP (that’s extra-special powers, not extrasensory perception) might as well be San Diego’s mascot. Since the 1960s, Gordon has made cameo appearances in advertising pitches everywhere, but his La Jolla roots keep bringing him back to this land like lapping waves of the tide. The cartoon character is a figment of longtime La Jolla writer/illustrator Geoff Relf’s imagination. Gordon’s latest adventure (as told to Relf) springs to life in an upcoming children’s book, “Blue Planet Blues.” Relf’s first such work, “Blue Planet Blues,” sees Gordon traveling from the Indian Ocean to the West Coast of the United States, incorporating ecological information into the storyline. The book is still in the publishing process, but readers can catch a sneak peek of “Blue Planet Blues” throughout the month of May at the UCSD Arts Library on the lower level in the west wing of
Geisel Library. Along with Relf’s illustrations and bits of copy from the “Blue Planet Blues” publishing process, the Spring Quarter Exhibit also features several other memories on lend from Relf — including posters from advertising jobs, his late wife’s hot-fusion glass art, and even mementos from his time spent as a Naval Aviator in the Korean War. Relf’s display also depicts his deep-rooted involvement with the San Diego community — through work with Hotel Del Coronado to a cover design he crafted for San Diego Magazine to his creation of UCSD’s “Explorer” publication, and much, much more. Not surprisingly, many of these artifacts also star Gordon the Giant Clam with ESP. Gordon is partly to credit for Relf snagging a job as the first ad agency account executive for Sea World in the 1960s. In an initial meeting for the job, Relf recalled, “I made the pitch about the fact that I had a consultant who knew everything about the marine

CAUGHT ON CAMERA
world. It was actually a joke. “I said, ‘He’s very familiar, I mean he’s really into the marine scene,’ and they said, ‘Well, who’s that?’ and I said, “His name is Gordon. He’s a giant clam and has ESP and consults to me with his ESP.’ They laughed like crazy, of course, because it was a gag and I was just using it, but they hired me.” What began as a lighthearted attempt at ecological humor blossomed into a longstanding theme for Relf, who has a background in marine science. Relf weaved Gordon into several of his projects through the years, including an ecology promotion for a major San Diego shopping center in the 1970s. “I, back in the ‘60s and ‘70s, was well aware of the importance of ecological awareness,” Relf said. Using Gordon the Giant Clam as a vehicle for speaking out without forcing a viewpoint on listeners, Relf designed a captivating way to present his information. It is with this method that he hopes “Blue Planet Blues,” will resonate with audiences.

“If you wish to have your child learn how to play the game of baseball, send them to Coach Kurtis,” said Mike Sweeney, a five-time All-Star when he was with the Kansas City Royals. Kurtis Swanberg, who runs the AllStar Baseball & Softball Academy, draws praises from other former Major League players including Brad Ausmus, Steve Finley, Mark Loretta and David Newhan. Camps for boys and girls ages 5 -to 13-years-old start June 20. Participants will work to better their pitching, pickoff, hitting, fielding, base running, bunting and bagwork skills. They’ll also play live games each day and get T-shirts and trophies at the end of camp. For details on the camps go to Allstarbaseballsoftball.com or call (858) 342-5931.
The bottom line about camp costs Parents know that camp is an experience that will last a lifetime. However, they may worry about the cost, especially if there is more than one camp-aged child in the house. The good news for parents is that there is a camp for just about every budget. While fees to attend camp vary, they can range from $75 to over $650 per week for American Camp Association-accredited resident and day camps. Parents may also reduce the costs by asking the right questions. When talking with the camp director, parents should ask the following: n What is the refund policy? Refund policies vary greatly from camp to camp. Some refund for illness only, some will
give a total refund prior to certain date, and some don not refund at all. Most camps will ask for a small non-refundable deposit at the time of application, which may or may not go toward the cost of tuition. It is important to know the refund policy before you send any money. n Is there financial assistance available? Many camps offer camperships, which is a partial or total subsidy of the tuition costs, but parents need to ask if they are available. Although they are usually awarded based on need, don not assume that you make too much to qualify. It is important to apply early.

Ready, Set, Camp! How to find the right camp for your child You are considering a summer camp, but how to choose? There’s a camp that is ideally suited for every child, providing a summer of growth and fun whether your child attends a day or overnight camp, a specialized or traditional camp. With a little help from the camp professionals at the American Camp Association, here’s some sound advice that helps parents sort through the choices and benefits that camp delivers. As spring approaches, parents and children can look forward to planning for the future — a future that includes the opportunities for exploration and discovery that arrives with summer camp.
These questions help you consider the options.
Near or Far? Where do you want your child to go to camp? Locally or far away? While each camp experience has something unique to of-
fer your child, this is an opportunity for families to assess what they value for their campers. Reprinted by permission of the American Camp Association © 2005 American Camping Association, Inc.
“Yes I can!” At SuperCamp, students gain confidence, motivation and learning skills to make them unstoppable.
When is your child ready? Children are ready for new experiences at different stages. Parents know their children best and these questions can help gauge whether this is the summer your child will start camp. What is your child’s age? Children under age 7 may not adjust easily to being away from home. Consider the day camp experience to prepare them for future overnight camp. How did your child become interested in camp? Does your child talk about camp on a sustained basis? How much persuasion is necessary from you? Has your child had positive overnight experiences away from home? Visiting relatives or friends? Were these separations easy or difficult? What does your child expect to do at camp? Learning about the camp experience ahead of time allows you to create positive expectations. Are you able to share consistent and positive messages about camp? Your confidence in a positive experience will be contagious.

FROM questiOns, B1 If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add to improve La Jolla? I would add a stronger historical perspective that values our rich past — especially some of the fast-disappearing bungalows. The la Jolla Historical Society is doing fine work on raising everyone’s awareness of this. Who or what inspires you? I am inspired by our remarkable young president; my children who are making runs at life in different, inventive ways I could never have imagined; and my wife
Who would be on your dream guest list, if you hosted a dinner party for eight? My invitees would include Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the young Lutheran pastor executed by the Nazis; Alice Roosevelt Longworth; Steve Jobs; Rosa Parks; Andy Wright, founding chair of UCSD English Department; David Foster Wallace; Julian Assange and Elizabeth Taylor. Tell us about what you are reading. I am a promiscuous reader, recently finishing “The Big Short: Inside the

Doomsday Machine,” by Michael Lewis; “36 Arguments for the Existence of God,” by Rebecca Newberger Goldstein; ”Wolf Hall“ by Hilary Mantel, and I just delved into “The Good Book: A Humanist Bible.” What is your dream vacation? Well, coming here each November is tough to top. Lacey and I spent a fascinating Christmas two years ago with a couple of our kids in Hanoi. Last November we went to Cuba and saw my ancestors’ tombs. I hope to get to China, and to the Philippines where I spent some growing-up years. Developing countries are a big draw for me.
What are your five favorite movies of all time? These would be “The Big Lebowski,” “Contempt,” starring Brigitte Bardot and Jack Palance, “Rear Window,””Cat On A Hot Tin Roof,” and “Rebel Without A Cause.” What foods comfort you? I enjoy meatloaf and mashed potatoes, all sweets, and café mocha (especially from Brick & Bell). What is your motto or philosophy of life? If I was foolish enough to try to adopt one, it might be, “You can never tell.”

LJ’s real estate market sees modest improvements By Bob Kevane President, San Diego Association of Realtors A two-month decline in San Diego’s real estate market came to an end in March with an increase of 36 percent in sales of detached and attached properties combined compared to February. This is great news as we head into prime homebuying season. But what does the climate look like for buyers and sellers in La Jolla? Although the median price of detached homes in La Jolla is still down nearly $200,000 from this time last year, the number of properties sold has increased and the time these properties spend on the market has decreased. The 92037 zip code had 59 detached properties sell in the first quarter — up from 53 this time last year — and they spent an average of 91 days on the market, 25 days less than in the first quarter of 2010. Nearly half of those properties were sold in the month of March with a median price of $1,210,000 as compared to $1,425,000 in March of 2010. While the amount of time attached properties in La Jolla spend on the market has declined from 105 days to 101 days, the number of properties sold in the first quarter of 2011 is down from 68 this time last year to 53. But, there’s a great opportunity for investors to purchase attached properties in La Jolla with a year-to-date median home price of $465,000, down from $504,000 in 2010. La Jolla’s modest improvements, along with the rest of the county, have helped sustain our positive outlook for San Diego’s real estate market in 2011. The overall median sales price in the county increased 5 percent and the median price for detached properties increased more than seven percent since February, while the price of attached homes increased by nearly four percent. The spring months have finally arrived and warmer weather historically brings an improved housing market. As you consider purchasing a home, take the time to evaluate your finances and real estate strategy and be sure to consult a knowledgeable Realtor for advice and guidance.
