BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com Dueling signs, one reading “Sensitive harbor seals, beach closed,” and the other proclaiming, “This beach is manmade, feel free to cross the rope,” epitomized the continuing debate over shared use at the La Jolla Children’s Pool by humans and harbor seals. Signs were carried by both seal and beach-access camps who were out in force April 3 at the La Jolla beach on a day when animal advocates had called for a 2 p.m. rally to protest escalating beach use by humans during the marine mammals’ Dec. 15 to May 15 pupping season. On the walkway above the pool, seal advocates waived signs and shouted support for protecting the marine mammals. Meanwhile, down below on the beach, a group of about 40 access proponents were camped out on the “seal’s side” of the guideline rope meant to separate humans from nursing seals and their pups. Along Coast Boulevard overlooking the beach, three “free speech” tables vied with one another for attention from an unusually large group of passersby, which included considerable spillover from the La Jolla Motor Car Classic being held at La Jolla Cove.

Restaurant remodel to include public deck BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com The transformation of the former Chart House on Prospect Street into Eddie V’s Prime Seafood is on track for early summer completion, complete with a public viewing deck with an ocean view. The small plaza will honor noted La Jolla architect Robert Mosher, who at 90 is wrapping up his career. “It was the first project my office did in 1948 and it will be the last I do because I’m retiring,” said Mosher, whose family owned the restaurant property at 1270 Prospect St. from 1944 until

the public will be encouraged to use it, but it will remain private property. It will be a nice vantage point for everyone who comes.” Allison said the restaurant view deck will be about seven or eight feet wide at its narrowest point then widen out “like a piece of pie, probably 20 feet on the ocean side.”
BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com With the demise of the proposed Bird Rock farmers market, the question remains: What to do about raising funds to support Bird Rock Elementary? “We plan to raise enough funds to keep our full teaching staff as well as our specialty program teachers: This means raising more funds than we ever have in the past,” said Lisa Bonebrake, Bird Rock parent Bird Rock Elementary will representative to the La Jolla hold a May 14 fundraiser, Cluster Association, noting the “ONE: One Night, One school’s largest annual fund- School, Our Future.” raising event will be May 14 at Anthology downtown. Voiceofsandiego.org reporter Emily Alpert wrote recently that “parents at Bird Rock Elementary are being asked to donate $1,000 per student to help save two classroom teachers, three support teachers and other experts to help teach kids about art, music, computers, physical education and the library.”

Motor Car Classic drives a crowd to Scripps Park
A
crowd of car lovers turned out Sunday for the 7th annual La Jolla Motor Car Classic, sponsored by the La Jolla Historical Society. Event co-chair Leslie Davis emailed on Monday that they were very happy with the results of the event, which attracted about 1,000 and about 180 volunteers. “The weather gave us a late-game surprise assist and our increased sponsorship participation, along with our 2011 emcee Keith Martin of Sports Car Market Publishing, effectively raised the quality of this spectacu-
lar La Jolla event,” she added. Historical Society Executive Director John Bolthouse said that attendance was down a bit from 2011, but “participants and spectators had a great time.” He noted that the road rally, which ended at the Wisteria Cottage for the first time, showed the potential for the event’s growth. He estimated about 200 or so spectators wandered by as the cars arrived on Saturday afternoon. The show benefits the Historical Society and the Monarch School.
Curious onlookers check out details on the vehicles.

Many families attended a Thursday night reception with refreshments and a guitarist. The art program at LJES, as at all local public schools, is paid for by parents through school foundations. In addition to the show at their school, 15 La Jolla Elementary students are having their work displayed at the San Diego Museum of Art later this month. Ten percent of an upcoming student show “Young Art 2011: Making Multiples” at the museum is work done by LJE students. The SDMA student show will be on view April 16 to May 29.

Planning for
Long-Term Health Care
UCSD Libraries await impact of budget cuts By DAvE SChwAB daves@lajollalight.com UC San Diego Libraries last week took the first hit from a budget scenario which has campus officials planning for a 12 percent cut. On April 1, the Medical Center Library in Hillcrest closed its doors. Budget planners have outlined a worstcase scenario for trimming $3 million in FY 2011-12 — on top of nearly $5 million in cuts since 2008-09 — which consolidates six library buildings and staffs into two. Also planned are further trims in collections, canceling journal subscriptions and online databases, and reducing book expenditures. The proposed cuts were outlined recently in a budget report by Brian E.C. Schottlaender, the Audrey Geisel University librarian, in response to the governor’s recent proposed $500 million cut to the University of California’s budget for next year. At the outset, Schottlaender’s budget report objects to the current formula used to allocate campus budget reductions claiming it doesn’t factor in the “size of the libraries’ budget versus the campus’s budget” and doesn’t “protect the academic core.” “If the libraries are not central to the academic core, what is?” Schottlaender wrote in his report, which notes that the university’s libraries have sustained permanent budget cuts of almost $5 million — 16 percent of libraries core base budget — since 2008-09. Schottlaender’s 12 percent libraries budget reduction plan does a lot of “compacting.” Said Schottlaender: “It would close several libraries and accumulate their functions and collections.” UCSD spokeswoman Delores Davies said the library buildings that would be closed include libraries at UCSD Medical
Some services will be consolidated in the Geisel Library. KATHY DAY Center, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and the Center for Library and Instructional Computing Services. The SIO Library is the only science-focused library facing closure, she added. Davies noted the Science & Engineering Library, in the Geisel Library building — which houses four libraries would be consolidated in the Biomedical Library. Director Peter Brueggeman talked about the impact of the Scripps Institution library’s closure on the campus community. “The Scripps Institution of Oceanography Library collection is the largest collection in the world focused on marine science,” Brueggeman said. He said users will have to wait longer for “books and journal back runs that aren’t available online, as well as to current runs of overseas journals in marine sciences that are not available online.” In addition, access to the collection at the Geisel Library or through delivery requests from an off-campus storage facility would not be as timely as it is currently at SIO. “Items will take longer for campus

users to obtain, which may impact the quality of research and education,” he said adding the space also will be lost as a study and communal space for students. A petition in opposition to the proposed SIO library closure, signed by more than 700 members of the SIO and UC communities, as well as by scientists from organizations such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), has been submitted to the university. Schottlaender said, due to the richness of the collection, that the Scripps Library has long been a “net lender” for interlibrary loans, meaning that more books and publications come out of the Scripps Library collection than Scripps researchers request from other libraries for their own research and education needs. “Interlibrary loan from the Scripps Library collection is centralized, and would continue after closure,” he said. “However, it is possible that the UCSD Libraries will need to restrict lending or charge fees for loans outside the UC libraries because of budget cuts.” Schottlaender has presented his budget-cutting plan to all campus deans, Academic Affairs’ Department Chairs, the college provosts, the Academic Senate leadership and the presidents of the Associated and the Graduate Student Association as well as Libraries staff to “pave the way” for serious discussions needed to “downsize and rethink what we do and how we do it.” Where the plan goes from here is temporarily on hold. “We’re all waiting for the May revise on the state budget” as well as for what action the Legislature takes if any, Schottlaender said. The library head is working with university stakeholder groups to “gather what their concerns are should these closures come to pass.”

Real estate is a long term investment and U.S. households have seen up to 88.5% gain in the last ten years. It is not always a liquid asset, so long term investment must be stressed.

Building equity in your home is a ready made savings plan. When you sell, the present tax law allows you to take up to $250,000 ($500,000 for married couples) as a gain without owing any federal income tax. 5) Predictability. Unlike rent, your mortgage payments can stay the same with a fixed rate loan. (taxes and insurance could increase.) 6) Freedom. The home is yours to decorate any way you choose. 7) Stability.

www.lajollalight.com FROM MARKET, A1 As one way to raise funds on a regular basis, a group of parents had been working to start a farmers market at La Jolla Methodist Church, but the idea was dropped last week after stiff opposition arose from the church’s neighbors. “Parents across San Diego Unified have understood for many years that if you want your student to have a wellrounded education that includes the arts, physical education and other opportunities — you have to help your school raise the funds to make this possible, especially if your school does not qualify for federal Title I funds or stimulus funds that can be used flexibly,” said Bonebrake. Though the financial challenge is steep, Bonebrake said she believes the La Jolla public school community will rise to the occasion. “We’re fortunate that so many who live in our community who send their children to public school, volunteer their time and talents, pay attention to what’s happening in our district and care about our dedicated teachers,” she said. “Since 1985, our school foundation has funded visual art, music, library services, physical education, and technology instruction at Bird Rock — all very important curricular areas that the district does not fund for our school.” The notion of creating a neighborhood market serving Bird Rock was first raised a couple of years ago, but was not pursued when an appropriate location could not immediately be found. It surfaced again a few months ago when it seemed the Mira Monte plaza in front of the church would be a good spot. Neighbors, though saying they supported the school, said they felt the church site off a busy street surrounded by a quiet residential neighborhood was the wrong spot

for the planned Friday afternoon event. The church’s pastor, Rev. Walter Dilg, said they were willing to go along with plans and were willing to allow its electricity, water, restrooms, and parking lots to be used because the school fundraiser seemed like a good idea. “We wanted to do what we thought we could do to help the neighborhood moms succeed in this effort,” Dilg e-mailed. “Later we learned that a number of the immediate neighbors around the church property were not as open to work with the disruption as we were and actually felt there were insurmountable impediments to the project being located at Mira Monte plaza.” Dilg said the church met with the neighbors and listened to their concerns. “Upon reflection, we realized the goals of this project were not going to be attained at this location. We discussed our observations with the moms’ group and discovered they were reaching a similar conclusion.” Looking back on what went wrong with the drive to create an easily accessible neighborhood market, Darcy Ashley, former La Jolla Town Council president, said she felt market proponents weren’t forthright enough about their intentions. “For me, the energy went of the room when they had not spoken to the neighbors immediately impacted,” she said. “That should have been one of the critical, initial steps. The organizers of the farmers market didn’t inspire a lot of trust.” Ashley nonetheless credited market proponents with “trying mightily to do a good thing.” Is the farmers market school fundraising notion in Bird Rock dead? Ashley doesn’t think so, pointing to the results of a survey done a few years ago asking residents what kind of

businesses they’d like to see along La Jolla Boulevard. “The number one thing was a grocery store,” she said. “If there weren’t this underlying desire for food, the farmers market never would have found an audience.” Ashley thinks it’s likely the market proposal will come back in altered form in the future.

Clinton brings Global Initiative to La Jolla Bird Rock Elementary School’s Class of 2011 poses with ‘The Wave’ wall mosaic and another mosaic located at the flagpole base. PHOTOS BY Pearl PreiS n More photos at www.lajollalight.com
The Wave the rave at Bird Rock Elementary Bird Rock Elementary School’s fifth-grade class of 2011 just completed its gift to the school, a mosaic wave. Since the 1970s, the fifth graders have saluted the tradition with everything from murals to self-portraits and painted tiles to stained glass and mosaic. This year, the 70 students helped to create fused glass and stamped high fire clay for two projects in the front of school. Looking to update the school entrance façade, the fifth-grade committee focused on the front of the school. Collaborating with artists Jane Wheeler and Kathryn Stephens, both alumni moms, they glued various shades of blue to create the fused glass rim that surrounds “The Wave.” Designed by Kathryn Stephens with the
mosaic enhanced by Jane Wheeler, the wave captures the essence of Bird Rock — waves, water, starfish, sparkle, and by the sea blues. Embedded in the starfish are the words “Est. 1951” to commemorate Bird Rock’s 60th birthday. Surrounding the flagpole next to the wave is a mosaic containing messages of inspiration stamped by the fifth graders such as “Be yourself,” “Let your personality fly,” “Inspire,” “Justice,” “Tubular” and “Every key opens something.” Also embedded are the names of the students, teachers and principal. The focal point is the class of 2011’s legacy message, “Bird Rock Elementary, Where Friendships Are Born,” surrounded by fused glass created by the students.

By LynnE FRiEdmann “Today’s generation of young people holds more power than any generation before it to make a positive impact on the world.” These words from former President Bill Clinton are at the heart of the Clinton Global Initiative University (CGI U), an annual meeting designed to engage the next generation of leaders on college campuses around the world. From April 1 through 3, the Fourth Annual CGI U convened on the UCSD campus. “We chose UC San Diego because of its ongoing, consistent commitment to community service,” Clinton said. When he took the stage Friday night at the RIMAC Arena, the crowd — which included nearly 1,200 students, representing 349 schools, 90 countries and all 50 states — rose to its feet and gave the president a thunderous, rock-star welcome. CGI U participation is through a competitive application process that includes the student’s commitment to action. Over the course of the three days, attendees

network with peers and learn about innovative ideas to tackle poverty alleviation, education, environment and climate change, peace and human rights, and public health. More importantly, they attend skill-building sessions that address fundraising, community engagement, partnership building, and the use of social media to market a cause. To date, CGI U has been a catalyst to over 3,000 commitments to action by college students. Innovative ideas from local students include Incentives for Opportunity by UCSD student Maclen Zilber that seeks to raise student awareness of new tax credits for
books. In partnership with UCSD bookstore, information will be printed on sales receipts and students can receive e-mail reminders that tally eligible purchases and receive pointers on how to claim them on their tax return. The effort could save UCSD students at least $2.5 million dollars per year. Lighting Up Post-Disaster Communities is the brainchild of UCSD students Erika Jue and Maria Elisa Martinez and Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis student Lila Petersen. Moved by the aftermath of the 2010 Chilean earthquake, this project commits to providing off-grid, solar-powered lighting for 50 families displaced by the earthquake and living in transitional shelters. Their project was one of 16 selected for the CGI U Commitment Bracket Challenge, a take-off on the NCAA tournament bracket for college basketball. People from around the world were encouraged to vote online for their favorite commitment. n More online: Read the rest of this article at www.lajollalight.com

Gold Rush comes alive for La Jolla Elementary students
L
a Jolla Elementary School fourth graders who have been studying early California history dressed up as cowboys and miners last week and participated in a series of activities that made the mid-1800s come alive. Students from the four fourth-grade classes were divided into six teams that had to follow clues around the campus to find the spot of land that would be their “claim.” Teachers throughout the school participated in the role-play. For example, Principal Donna Tripi acted as “sheriff” and support staff filled roles as “assayer,” store shop keeper, and claim registrar. Once a team registered its claim, they could dig for “gold” (painted rocks). Students also did Gold Rush-themed math games. The day ended with a feast that included barbecued hot dogs, chili, corn bread and pie.

La Jolla physician John Gordon to head cardiology association John Gordon, M.D., a senior interventional cardiologist affiliated with Sharp Memorial Hospital and the San Diego Cardiac Center, is the new governor-elect for the American College of Cardiology’s (ACC) Southern California region. Gordon, a La Jolla resident, will assume the role in 2012 for a threeyear term. He will represent the needs and opinions of the members of the Southern California region John Gordon and will implement ACC national initiatives to help improve cardiovascular care for patients throughout the state. He has also served as chief of Sharp Memorial’s Cardiology Subsection.
FROM RESTAURANT, A1 Mosher, who designed the restaurant and its remodel, said extra effort was taken to preserve the authenticity of the property, including retaining a fireplace from one cottage that existed in the historic Green Dragon Colony. “We saved the fireplace — it was in terrible shape,” he said. “We went through great pains to see to it that it didn’t fall down and we rebuilt it and it’s now in good shape.” Eddie V’s is being constructed with views in mind. A member of Eddie V’s Restaurants Inc., a Scottsdale, Ariz.-based steak and seafood chain, the restaurant has signed a lease to be the first Southern California store in the chain. It had originally been scheduled to move
into 1270 Prospect St. on June 1. Mitch Liggett, director of development for Eddie V’s, said the construction timetable is “changing every day.” “It looks like mid-summer, late June probably or even July,” he said noting, “We’re really trying to respect the site and what was their originally and try to do it (remodel) right.” “It’s going to be a wonderful building with views clear through to the street,” Mosher said. “People will be able to stand on the sidewalk and look through and see the ocean. That’s the only place on Prospect where you can do that.” Mosher said the restaurant itself is going to have marvelous all-glass views with two beautiful outdoor dining decks. “It’s really going to be sensational,” he said.
On its website, Eddie V’s Prime Seafood said its menu was inspired from the great classic seafood restaurants of New Orleans, San Francisco and Boston. La Jolla’s Eddie V’s will be the 15th restaurant in the decade-old chain. Liggett said the new restaurant will have a seating capacity of nearly 300 including rooftop and outdoor patio dining. The 1270 Prospect St. site is where La Jolla’s famed Green Dragon Colony was located. The colony opened in 1894 and became a hotbed for artists, novelists, composers, and others invigorating La Jolla in its early history. Although the last traces of the colony were knocked down by 1949, some artifacts remain in odd places, such as the fireplace being restored and reused in Eddie V’s.

LA JOLLA LIGHT - APRIL 7, 2011 - Page a13
FROM SEALS, A1 Nearby several police kept an eye on the situation. No arrests or problems were reported, a police spokesman said Monday. Diver John Leek was at a table representing Children’s Pool Friends, a permitted beach access group. There were stuffed animals and other gifts for sale at the table but Leek noted “we pretty much sell them at cost.” Asked how he felt about the city’s permitting process for tables, Leek said: “The City Attorney has not allowed it to be enforced, so it’s a dead issue.” Asked what he’d like to see happen, ultimately at the pool, Leek, who is not a La Jolla resident said, “It’s good to me.” Twenty feet or so down the walkway volunteer Hasan Gulkun, who also is not a La Jollan, was staffing a table run by Earth Life Inc. selling tie-dye T-shirts promoting environmental causes. “Our mission is to protect the oceans, the animals and the wildlife,” he said, adding money made goes toward environmental causes. Brooke Haggerty of SealWatch, a campaign of the Animal Protection and Rescue League, was staffing the third table, which is operating without a city permit. “Our mission is to allow the seals to have a little bit of space to rest and digest,” she said, noting financial donations for stuffed animals and other gifts being sold by her group
Beach access backers set up inside the barrier at the La Jolla Children’s Pool. DAVE SCHWAB goes mostly toward paying animaladvocacy campaign expenses. “I promise you it’s not (funding) a lot,” she said. Of permitting, Haggerty said, “It’s not doing much in regulating the situation out here.” Asked about the ranger who was just hired to patrol Children’s Pool and recently asked for a transfer, Haggerty replied: “You can’t put all of that on one person’s shoulders.” Haggerty added shared use is a “lovely idea,” but questioned its viability. “For the sake of reality, we need a compromise to have people on one side (of the rope) and seals on the other,” she said. Also on hand Sunday was Ellen
Shively, president of La Jolla Friends of Seals. She said the rally was called to show shared use at the pool isn’t working. “The pro-beach access people have commandeered it (pool),” she said. “This is what shared use has come to: It’s not shared. It’s completely dominated by the people.” John Hartley, former city councilman and a Sierra Club member who also turned out for the event, said: “Our goal is to have full protection for seals and a marine mammal park preserve." A representative of the group of about 40 people camped out on the beach with chairs and awnings, who requested anonymity, talked about why they were there. “We’re using a public-access beach,” he said. “Nobody on this beach is anti-seal: We love seals. We just want to have a shared beach. That’s all there is to it.” David Pierce of the San Diego Council of Divers agreed with that perspective. “People are tired of these ecoterrorists trying to take over their beach,” he said. “For the last 10 years or so animal advocates have been using threats and intimidation to keep people off the beach.” Pierce had recent video footage taken of divers and harbor seals interacting playfully and peacefully playing in the back of his vehicle for passersby that he said demonstrates shared use is a reality at the pool.
Reorganized beach panel finds a project By DAvE SChwAB daves@lajollalight.com La Jolla Parks and Beaches, Inc., which will officially split from the La Jolla Town Council in July, is establishing a new identity and redefining its mission. The former town council subcommittee is separating from its parent body in order to continue to advise the city on coastal parks and beaches issues. The city now requires its advisory “rec councils” to be nonprofits, but because the Town Council is a dues-paying organization the group had to split off. “This is a group that represents the community and our voice will be stronger because we’ll be directly advising the city on issues affecting all the parks and beaches in La Jolla,” said interim chair Patrick Ahern, who recently replaced Michele Addington. At the group’s monthly meeting on March 28, Ahern solicited input from group members on projects to tackle in 2011. Committee member Debbie Beacham said the South Casa Pool Stairway, closed off recently to the public for repairs caused by erosion damage, ought to top the group’s to-do list. “It’s such a big part of the beach now that you can’t get to,” she said. “I’m suggesting we ask for pieces of wood to be put across the cracks so it can be done (opened) quickly.” “We should get a letter to them (city) now to get it fixed,” said longtime committee member Melinda Merryweather. “We need someone with energy to start a subcommittee to get the stairs fixed as an emergency action,” said Ahern. Beacham’s motion asking for a letter to be drafted to the city requesting that the stairway be repaired before the unofficial beginning of summer on Memorial Day passed unanimously. Ahern said the group is actively seeking ideas from the community on coastal projects or issues that need to be worked on. Suggestions can be e-mailed to patrick@scrippspark.com.

of the holes around town. Our plan is to gather them into a big bundle — or bucket or wheelbarrow — to take them downtown so the mayor and city council get the point. We also called on the La Jolla Town Council and City Councilwoman Sherri Lightner to consider organizing a “Road Repair Rally” such as the one set for Scripps Ranch later this month. There’s only one problem:
Our View La Jollans are a funny bunch. Whenever we’re out and about we hear people talking about the deplorable condition of our city streets and about how the city seems to be ignoring the problem in our part of the city. So we decided to shine “the Light” on the pothole problem and asked you to send in photos and locations
As of press time, we had received less than a dozen — and a couple of them were our own submissions. And we haven’t heard a peep on the Road Rally idea. So what gives, La Jolla? Let’s get this movement going. Send us your pothole photos or at least send us a note about where you’re shock absorbers are taking the worst beating. Let’s let them know La Jollans want action.
This scene in front of 7539 Cabrillo is one of several readers submitted in the past week. send your photo and the location to editor@lajollalight.com or to Potholes, la Jolla light, 565 Pearl st., ste. 565, la Jolla 92037.

COmmunity Leader’s View By Glen rasmussen Kiwanis Club of La Jolla
The Kiwanis Club of La Jolla gives hundreds of thousands of dollars back to the community each year that it earns from the Half Marathon and Roughwater Swim. We would love to have you join and help. We have fun doing our service. The club also performs numerous service projects like the Junior Olympics and the Pancake Breakfast, for the good of La Jolla. One such project is the annual weed control and fire prevention cleanup on the
bikepath, which we accomplished last weekend. Please take a look at the HUGE pile of green waste generated. It is near the path near Vincente Way and will be removed soon by the City Park and Rec Department. What we didn’t need was one or two people pulling down our signs and accusing us of killing caterpillars and damaging trees with “bolts” (see, “‘Action’ is a distraction!” in last week’s La Jolla Village News). Not one word in that letter was true, yet the Village News did not take the time to determine the validity of its content or author. I
published my name and phone number if anyone wanted more information. No one called me. Yet the Village News saw fit to publish a “concern” (read “gossip”) letter by someone with a pseudonym (“Pat R, Bird Rock”). The Light at least tries not to slap the faces of its volunteers in an irresponsible manner such as that. Our thanks to all those who helped us to prevent fires and foxtails in our open area, which was fully permitted by the City. We did what they would do, if they had the funds. Our community is the better for the efforts of the Kiwanis Club.
Get involved with new merchants’ group COmmunity Leader’s View By Phil Coller President, La Jolla Village Merchants Association La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) will hold its second board meeting at 8:30 a.m on April 13, at the La Jolla Women’s Club at 715 Silverado St. There are approximately 1,200 businesses in La Jolla that pay a business assessment levy along with their business tax. Yet only about 30 or so businesses are represented at meetings or voice their views on how the Association uses the BID money they contribute. The board encourages all business and residents to come to the meeting and voice their opinions and ideas.
Several working groups were set up at the last meeting to investigate and report back on some key issues: n Recommend a committee structure for LVJMA. Please note seats on committees will not be limited to board members. All members of LJVMA and residents can participate. n Recommend an event timetable for the next 18 months. n Recommend how the business community portrays its message and identity to the community. n Investigate the status of landscape and hardscape issues in the Village (Beautification). There are a number of other organizations in La Jolla that deal with parks, coastal access, road improvements and closures for
special events and La Jolla beatification. The LJVMA appoints board members to some of these organizations and we are seeking business owners that can represent the association on these boards. Please let the board know if you are interested. LJVMA expects to be appointed as the BID Advisory Board to the City’s Office of Small Business in April and to sign a contract with the city in May to operate the La Jolla Business Improvement District. La Jolla is a beautiful place to live and work, the goal of LJVMA is to work with other community groups to know the story of our community and to sustain it and develop it by consensus. If you have questions or want to get involved, contact me at everettstunz@gmail.com.
Regarding the March 31 story, “Project opponents reject Whitney’s claim”: I have previously asserted that the allegations filed against the LJCPA did not have merit and now I can report that the City of San Diego has investigated and agreed that no violations occurred. I respect an applicant’s right to raise questions about our actions. The LJCPA has not nor should it ever chill expressions of disagreement; nor should it be intimidated when accusations are cast. With a philosophy of always do better, the LJCPA will continue to listen to the community and strive for the highest standards of transparency and accountability in its actions. And to be clear, yes the LJCPA is held to the standards of the Brown Act. Joe LaCava OutgOing President La JOLLa COmmunity PLanning assOCiatiOn
Potholes? seriously? The “fill -the-pot-hole” advocates need to suck-itup. After all we have a beautiful down town baseball stadium and are likely to get a beautiful privately owned-publicly funded football stadium. Take pride in these edifices and don’t worry about a little pothole. This is a city that is building a colossal, unfunded central library while it cuts back on community library hours. This is a school system that is putting new football lights at Hoover High while laying off teachers and increasing class size. What will these “fill-the-pot-hole” radicals request next — keeping the public restrooms in Mission Bay Park unlocked? We all know the value of locked public restrooms and how many tourists they bring in. David Little Bird rOCk
‘think’ about advertising I think advertising on lifeguard towers would be an excellent idea, and IBM would be a good example. Their motto is “THINK” and I believe that would be an ideal message to the majority of people visiting our beaches. The ocean is probably as foreign as the moon to most visitors who don’t use the beach or go in the ocean on a daily basis. There are others out there that would be appropriate. Not all advertising is the “Jack in the Box” brand. Craig Sweeney La JOLLa shOres

Spoiled Rotten moves, keeps quality Spoiled Rotten children’s apparel has moved a couple of doors down from 7544 Fay Ave. to 7556 Fay Ave., but the store’s time-honored quality and service hasn’t changed. “We are known to have more traditional, classic looks,” said Maria Magdaleno, who has owned the business for 11 of its 25 years. The apparel store offers a wide range of clothing from newborns, even “premies,” up to age 7. People look to us for our smocking style of dresses and some have more of that Southern flair, she said, describing the new location as a “more cozy, cottage feel.” Casual to dressy clothing is carried by the retailer, who said her price point is $50 and up. ‘There’s a lot of playwear and beachwear, Sunday wear, Tshirts and jeans,” she said. “We do carry things both domestic and imported.” Magdaleno also carries clothing for special events like baptisms or for flower girls or chris-

Surf contest back for 11th year BY PHIL DAILEY phildailey@lajollalight.com It's that time of year again to start getting ready for the La Jolla Shores Surfing Association's annual contest. Now in its 11th year, the Menehune Surf Contest will have more than 150 youths ages 18 and under at the Shores for the April 16 event. From longboard to shortboard and even novice divisions, there's something for all experience levels. "It’s the best surf contest for kids that’s available," said Lorraine Schmalenberger, the president of the La Jolla Shores Surfing Association. What started out as a idea by Stephanie Hoffman (the contest's director) more than a decade ago, has grown into a staple of the local surfing community. Along with being a great surfing event for local kids, it's also a fundraiser for many La Jolla charities. "We've gone to all this trouble to host this contest so why don’t we also make this a fundraiser?" said Schmalenberger of how the event came to its current form. Charities that benefit include: Friends of La Jolla Shores for the JJ the Whale sculpture installation at the Kellogg Park playground; Scripps Environmental Advocates in support of the Scripps Oceanographic Institute;
Contestants from last year's Menehune Surf Contest pose for a photo. This year's event gets under way on April 16 at La Jolla Shores. the City of San Diego Junior Lifeguard Foundation in support of the Junior Lifeguard Program and Life Rolls on, a subsidiary of the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation. Along with the promotion of the surf contest, the surf club also sponsors a grom surf art contest for local art students from area schools. More than 150 entries were received and this year’s winner — Christian Gimber of La Jolla High, will receive $100 in prize money as well as have his artwork displayed on the T-shirts for the contest.
The deadline to enter the surfing event is April 10. Depending on availability, registration opportunities may be available the morning of the event. "We’re a medium-sized surf club and we’re always open to new members. This is a good event to go public with who we are and really capture new members, new support and new friends," Schmalenberger said. ■ More online: Go to www.lajollalight.com to see Christian Gimber's award-winning artwork.

He did play in the recent Pebble Beach Pro Am, his first time on a course in eight months. He shot a 75 on the first day, even beating a tour pro, but his next outing wasn’t as successful, scoring in the 90s. Despite the up and down nature of his game, Brees still gets a thrill from playing.

In a room full of media, it was inevitable that the topic of the NFL lockout would pop up. Along with quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, Brees is part of an antitrust lawsuit against the NFL. While Brees did his best to move the conversation back to the
golf tournament, he politely answered a few questions about his name being attached to the lawsuit. “I got involved because I understand the sacrifices guys made who played before me and I feel its my responsibility to represent not only them but future players in this league.” Brees said.

section B 10 questions
Mike Stevens fights lung cancer with a battle plan for all At age 43, La Jolla resident Mike Stevens was a healthy non-smoker with a wife and two children. He never thought he’d have lung cancer. When he was diagnosed in 2005, Stevens had owned La Mike Jolla Photo & Imaging Stevens for 23 years. He sold the business to undergo chemo treatments and spend his time raising public awareness and research funds to fight lung cancer. Six years later, after a dozen rounds of chemotherapy, Stevens is one of the 3 to 5 percent of people who survive stage IV lung cancer. In 2009, Stevens and three other San Diego lung cancer survivors started the San Diego Breath of Hope Cancer Walk. This year, Stevens will lead the third annual walk with another La Jollan, co-chair Jane Marks. They invite other residents to join the walk at 9 a.m. Sunday, May 1 at Cancer Survivors Park on Harbor Island. Preregistration at sandiegobreathofhope.org is $30; onsite $35; kids $15. Participants will receive a T-shirt and ticket to the June 4 Padres Game. The walk is in association with the Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA), a national nonprofit. What brought you to La Jolla? I came here in 1978 as a freshman at UCSD. I loved diving and wanted to go into marine biology. I met my wife at UCSD and somehow wound up in the photography field where I bought La Jolla One Hour Photo when I was 23. What makes this area special to you? I always loved the natural beauty of La Jolla and San Diego. Having graduated from high school in the L.A. area, it was great to live in a place with no traffic and natural beauty. The days of no traffic are long gone. When I was in the photo business, I got to see many historical pictures of La Jolla and San Diego. I have always enjoyed learning about that history. One of my favorite times was whenever Ellen Revelle would come into my shop and

By John GuiGayoMa s UCSD medical student Neelum Jeste’s hands tore through the envelope that would fling her across the country for the next three years, her mother was by her side. Jeste had applied to around 20 schools, interviewed at 13, and after months of waiting, she and 127 of her peers discovered their residency placements March 17 at UCSD on what is known as Match Day, a nationwide ceremony that determines the next step toward a hopeful doctor’s career. But for the Jeste family, this milestone was one of many in the medical field. Dr. Dilip Jeste, Neelum’s father and a UCSD research psychiatrist, was announced as the president-elect of the American Psychiatric Association on March 14, just days before Match Day.

FROM DOCTORS, B1 said she was happy with her placement, Washington University at St. Louis, a Missouri school with strong clinical training, ample funding for research, and abundant opportunities in global health. The decision to pursue medicine came not from the assertion of her parents, but rather from paying witness to their interest in medicine throughout her childhood. Dinner conversations covered homework problems and tennis practice as much as research breakthroughs and hospital anecdotes. “A lot of kids I know who are children of physicians, I see them not wanting to do anything in medicine,” Sonali Jeste said, recalling how some parents would express their dissatisfaction with their jobs. “(My parents) come home and they are happy and they love talking about their jobs.” Said Dilip Jeste of his daughters’ decisions to enter medicine, “For both, we are proud of the fact that they have their own minds and make their own decisions. This is the main goal as parents, to make sure they are happy. It is something they have to decide.” The family’s affinity toward medicine began with the Jeste parents, who began their studies in India. Dilip Jeste was born to a middleclass family from the state of Bom-

bay and is the first physician in his family, he said. Among the titles he holds at the university are Estelle and Edgar Levi Chair in Aging, and Director of the Sam and Rose Stein Institute for Research. With a strong interest in geriatric psychiatric research, Jeste made advancements in the treatment of late-onset schizophrenia. But with two parents in the medical field, the Jeste children witnessed their parents juggle the schedules of physicians with the challenges of parenthood. Between being on call and attending conferences, mother sent cupcakes for class parties and father attended every tennis match. “My profession is very important to me, and I was not going to give that up,” Sonali Jeste said. “But I was also wanted to know that my
kids knew their mom was here.” At the same time, the children gained further exposure to the medical field. They met with practitioners from different areas at casual get-togethers, and the family planned vacations around Dilip Jeste’s conference schedule, traveling to countries such as Australia and Israel. “They set a good example that you can still raise your kids just as well and work just as hard. … When I am a working parent with kids, I will know that it is possible,” Neelum Jeste said. For Dilip Jeste, striking that balance between work and home was not difficult because his priorities were clear. “We genuinely love our kids, and our kids come first before everything else,” he said. “Family has to come first.”
All in the Family Just a few other medical families with UCSD ties include these practitioners: n Husband/Wife: Ajit Varki, M.D., is a Professor of Medicine and Cellular & Molecular Medicine. An internationally recognized glycobiology expert, he is also co-director of the UCSD Glycobiology Research and Training Center.

Jessie’s fiancée, Katie Rice, is a fourth-year medical student who was just “matched” to UCSD’s OB/GYN program so she will be a resident at UC San Diego Health System in the fall. Her parents (in Seattle) are both physicians. Dr. Dixon and his wife and Katie and Jessie live in La Jolla. n Husband/Wife: Karen Pierce, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Neurosciences and her husband, Eric Courchesne, Ph.D., Professor of Neurosciences, work together at the UCSD Autism Center of Excellence.

Waves ho! The ‘ultimate in seaside dining’ describes La Jolla’s famed Marine Room By Will Parson prawling across your field of vision, The Marine Room’s ocean-facing windows provide a breathtaking panorama, especially at high tide when they face the waves head-on. To get an idea of how close you’ll be to the water, consider that in The Marine Room’s first year, 1941, and again in 1982, stormy tides crashed through these windows. The view would be worth getting a little wet for, but manager Matthew Caponi can attest that the current tempered glass windows are strong enough to avoid another breakthrough. Though he does admit, “You never know, it could always happen again.” The Marine Room’s Executive Chef Bernard Guillas and Chef de Cuisine Ron Oliver are gearing up for Marine Room’s summer hightide dinners, which begin in May. This year’s high-tide dinners will also mark Marine Room’s 70th anniversary, though special plans are not yet finalized. The high-tide dinners present Marine Room’s

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: The Marine Room’s Redwood Hill Goat Cheese Brulee global cuisine — rooted in French classics — against the unique tidal backdrop, waves crashing against the windows themselves. With those high tide dinners around the corner, Chef Bernard is keeping busy. He recently returned to his home country to receive the prestigious Master Chefs of France award, honoring just over 200 chefs worldwide in the past six decades. Soon after, he appeared on NBC’s “The Today Show,” preparing Monkfish Bretonne with hosts Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford.
As of late, the Sesame Peppered Ruby Red Ahi Tuna, served with a white wine hibiscus sauce and black Tai rice, has been a popular dish. Chef Bernard’s crab cakes, with ingredients that vary, are a favorite appetizer. Every night of the week you can get a three-course meal from the “Taste of the Season” menu, with an optional wine pairing and featuring main courses like Maine Diver Scallops and Brandt Beef Short Ribs. Mondays are lobster nights, when you can choose either the Maine Lobster Bisque, served with golden enoki, pancetta and yuzu cream, or the Cypress Grove Purple Haze Goat Cheese Brûlée — yes, that’s goat cheese baked crème brûlée style — for your first stop on the three-course journey. Then you can move on to lobster tail prepared in one of three ways: Pistachio Butter Basted, Sugar Ranch Dill Pollen Spiced, or Lilikoi Kalbi Glazed. With Chef Bernard’s touch, the lobsters definitely seem more at home on your plate than in the surf, crashing just yards away!

Son’s birth brings director to town as his latest film, ‘Hanna,’ opens By Diana Saenger Saoirse Ronan stars as “Hanna” in the new thriller hitting theater screens on Friday, April 8. The story instantly mesmerizes as a young girl pits her survival skills against an animal twice her size and strength, Mother Nature, and her own father. “Hanna,” a mix of genres that blend seamlessly, excites and intrigues thanks to an inventive story by Seth Lochhead (screenplay by Lochhead and David Farr), and superb direction by Joe Wright. The British-born Wright is in La Jolla to promote the film and be near his wife’s family. “Four weeks ago my wife gave birth to our first child, a son, born at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas,” Wright said beaming. “Baby and wife are fine, and baby’s 90-year-old grandfather is very proud.” Wright has an impressive resume — he directed “The Soloist” (starring Jamie Foxx and Robert Downey Jr.), “Pride & Prejudice” and “Atonement,” the latter two garnered him many awards. Wright said he worked with the young Ronan in “Atonement,” for which she received an Academy Award nomination at age 13. In an exclusive interview with the La Jolla Light, Wright said it was Ronan who suggested to the studio they hire him to direct “Hanna.” “She was on board before me, and as soon as I read the script I wanted to do it for Saoirse (pronounced “sear-sha”) and me, too,” Wright said. “I • • • • • • • • • • • •

Hanna (Saoirse ronan) fears for her life in ‘Hanna.’ was intrigued by the character of Hanna and by the challenge of an action film, which I had not made before.” Eric Bana plays Hanna’s exCIA father, Erik, who has raised her in a North Finland forest, taught her to recite knowledge like an encyclopedia, and to dream by listening to fairy tales. Hanna knows she has an important mission to fulfill that requires her to leave the safety of her father’s love and home. The story has it all — adventure, action, danger and espionage. Wright said he had a lot to think about in planning his direction. “Filmmaking is a long process, so it’s dangerous to think of it all at once,” he said. “This film took 18 months to make, and you build it brick by brick, slowly building the structure.” As a former puppeteer, Wright said he eagerly responded to the folk-tale aspects of the script. “I recognized it had kind of a fairy-tale structure as it was about a kid growing up in a secluded, relatively safe environment, and at one point, is given a chance to

embark on a journey out into the world and the dark forest, and encounter evil and overcome it.” Even if Ronan hadn’t been on board, Wright agreed he would have hired her. The young star is a standout in her films and earned many awards for her role as Susie Salmon in Peter Jackson’s “The Lovely Bones.” “I would have been dubious about anyone else playing that role or if anyone else could have done it,” Wright said. “Saoirse is an extraordinarily talented human being, and I had a very clear idea of how we could make this film with her as Hanna.” Wright said he was also thrilled to have Bana and Cate Blanchett on board. “The father figure in fairy tales, for instance in “Rapunzel,” is often a woodcutter. So I wanted someone who had that kind of masculine solidity. He needed to be someone who is strong, dependable, and not vain. Eric was perfect for that role.” Academy Award-winner Blanchett plays Marissa, a career CIA agent tied to
Director Joe Wright on the set of the adventure/thriller ‘Hanna.’ PHOTOS COURTESY OF FOCUS FEaTURES secrets that involve Hanna and Erik. When she joins agents in the deadly pursuit of Hanna, she more than meets her match in the young girl who will not be captured. “I had a clear idea who Marisa could be and knew Cate would be the woman to do it,” Wright said. “She’s an extraordinary actress, and I relished working with her.” Wright resides in London where he grew up in somewhat of a fairyland. His parents founded Islington’s Little Angel Theater, for puppets. He attended Camberwell College of Arts and trained as a filmmaker at St. Martins College of Art & Design in London. In 2007, Wright became the youngest director in history to open a film (“Atonement”) at the Venice Film Festival. Wright is currently juggling several films, including a new version of “Anna Karenina.”

would be interesting to explain health care to him from a different perspective. At this dinner, I would dispel the myths and present the facts about lung cancer. Facts like 1/3 of those who get the disease don’t currently smoke; that 1 out of 3 people dying of cancer, die of lung cancer; and that lung cancer (not breast cancer) is the No. 1 cancer killer of women, killing twice as many women each year as breast cancer. I would also like them to understand the politics behind cancer research … how lung cancer only receives about 1/20th of the dollars per death that breast cancer receives.
have it, it could be worse. I’m blessed that I have not had to endure what some people have. Somehow cancer patients get though each day, often with a smile. Anyone and everyone battling cancer inspires me. The stories of physical, emotional and financial suffering are heartbreaking, yet everyone I’ve met finds a way to keep moving forward.
What are you reading? I have started a couple of books a few times and keep putting them down, unfinished. You have to stay in one place to finish a book, and I am too busy enjoying life to be able to do that right now. There are still many things I have not done that I need to do while I am still here.
If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? I have a habit of talking about lung cancer and trying to educate as many people as possible when I am in social situations. Everyone thinks it is a smokers’ disease, and “smokers did it to themselves,” so people somehow deserve their lung cancer. I would want to sit down with the editors-in-chief of the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and The Washington Post, and from the broadcast side, the heads of ABC, CBS and NBC to set the story straight. Lastly, I would want to invite President Obama. It
What is your most-prized possession? My life, my family and my friends who have supported me and help me stay on this side of the dirt.
FROM questiOns, B1 tell me stories of times gone by. It was great to hear about the history from someone who was there. If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you improve in the area? It would be great to stop the bickering about issues that mean so little in the overall picture. It gets really frustrating listening to decade-old debates about seals and crosses. Enough already. Sometimes I have to laugh at the energy that is put into these issues when that same energy and money could be used to improve people’s lives and help those in need. Who or what inspires you? I have been battling stage IV lung cancer for almost 6 years now. It is a disease for which most people don’t survive the first year. I often ask why I’m still here. Many friends have told me that I have a purpose. The day after I was diagnosed, a survivor (who I did not know all that well) sat down with my wife and I and explained what to expect and what questions we should be asking the doctor. For two people scared to death, these were the first positive words we could focus on. This person’s actions have inspired me to pay it forward to as many people as I can. Probably because of that one kind person, I became a cancer advocate and the California chair for the Lung Cancer Alliance. The people I meet and help are truly the most amazing people in the world. No matter how bad I might feel or how bad I think I
What do you do for fun? I love the outdoors. There are many things that I cannot do anymore since I lost part of a lung — scuba diving being just one of those. Steep hikes are another. I enjoy hunting and fishing. I try to explain to people that it is all about the experience of being out there, about the amazing things you see. I use to fish offshore a lot and thought it
was so sad looking back at the shore at the millions of San Diegans who were so close, yet never saw their city from the water. I have watched whales just yards away from me rise up and grab a mouthful of krill. I have had bobcats, turkeys and deer walk just feet away from me and never know that I am there. Too many of us go through life and miss the simple wonders that are all around us. What is your greatest accomplishment? I enjoyed my job at La Jolla Photo & Imaging, but no job is as rewarding as what I do now — helping people who are truly in need. It’s great being able to meet with someone who feels helpless and give him or her hope by encouraging him or her with my story of survival. If I can do this and then they later call me up and tell me that I have inspired them to live, there is no better reward. I feel that is the purpose of why I must still be here. What is your philosophy of life? Lung cancer is both the worst and best thing that has ever happened to me. I try to explain to others that most people really don’t enjoy life the way they should. It’s sad that it often takes a life-threatening disease to wake a person up to what is around them. I know that lung cancer will probably take me one day. That’s OK if I can have as much fun as possible between now and then. It is also great that my wife and many of my friends understand this and encourage me.

Here’s why Internet posters don’t spell too good
Let Inga tell you ... There’s probably nothing I enjoy more than misspelled moral outrage. Years ago, before the Internet, I used to walk on WindanSea beach where surfers had spray painted “Turist Go Home!” on a sea wall. They might have succeeded in ways they never envisioned. That sign was a terrific incentive for visitors not to consider staying here and raising their kids in the same public school system that produced the writers. The Internet has brought moral outrage to a whole new level. Now you don’t even need the spray paint. Or even the literacy level of a third grader.
Reading the commentary on an article about protests being banned in Saudi Arabia (a place my engineer husband goes often), a reader had posted: “I dont see Obama and Hilery criticising the Saudi gov like they did with the Iranain gov. HOPOCRISY IS OUR MATTO.” Um, OK. Phonetically, it’s not bad. But I don’t think even Spell Check is going to save this guy on a job application. During their careers in La Jolla’s public schools, my sons had some terrific and inspiring English teachers but also a few who pretty much abdicated the position. Rory’s eighth-grade English teacher at Muirlands, for example, never corrected spelling or grammar on assignments, maintaining the important thing was to “get your message across.” One day I looked at a paper Rory was about to hand in and observed, “Unfortunately, the message here is
that you’re illiterate.” I tried to convey to both kids that poor grammar, spelling and punctuation totally distract from the message, never mind undermining your credibility. Unfortunately, by the end of the year, the teacher was allowing – nay, encouraging — students to do a video or art project in lieu of writing. Obviously, Twitter, texting, and Internet comment posts have changed the entire scope of the English language, eliminating that pesky punctuation and reducing spelling to a modern day Morse code. And where once those public comments had to pass through the filter of a newspaper editor, now misspelled vitriol goes straight from brain to public post without passing thought reflection and/or online thesaurus (which would probably throw up its digital hands in despair anyway). One can’t help but notice that there is an inverse cor-
relation between vehemence and grammatical skills. In my worst nightmares, my grandchildren are getting foreign language credit for Late-20th Century English. It isn’t so far-fetched. When my kids were growing up here, virtually all of their teachers — elementary, middle school, high school — would say, “You did good.” It made me crazy, especially when the kids said it themselves. “Kids,” I said, “while I’m alive you have to say, ‘I did well.’ You did not ‘do good.’ Once I’m dead, you can say anything you want, although I promise to rise up out of my grave and haunt you.” Henri looked at his brother. “Sounds like we better have her cremated.” Endlessly I went over about ‘good’ being an adjective that had to modify a noun, as in ‘the good boy.’ Actually, their eyes had usually glazed over by the word “adjective,” already in
their era a charmingly antiquated concept. Not long ago, one of them sent me an article on evolving language (and I admit, it IS always evolving) noting that ‘you did good’ is in such popular usage that it can be considered ‘correct.’ The attached note read: “Mom, sorry this had to happen in your lifetime.” So given that, maybe the Turist Go Home message wasn’t so bad. Two out of the three words were correctly
spelled. Pretty good percentage by today’s standards. Still, it made my heart sink even if my lips smiled to read a recent Internet post: “Yuo peepl ar so igmorent yuo down no ENNYTHIN!!!!!!” I should ask Rory if he remembers this guy from eighth-grade English. — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life every other week in The La Jolla Light.

The ancient Romans revered the tax professional as the most noble man in society. False. It was the Greeks. Historically, taxes have been met with rebellion and unrest; patriotism; war; and voluntary compliance. French tax collectors were sent to the guillotine in 1789. Before the U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1788, the federal government lacked the power to raise revenue directly. Even after the Constitution was ratified, federal revenues came mostly from tariffs and excise taxes. During the Civil War, the federal government required much more revenue than the tariffs and excise taxes could provide. A tax on income was established in 1862 but was abolished after the war. The ratification of the 16th Amendment in 1913 gave Congress the right to levy and collect income taxes. — www.irs.gov

Collegium takes audiences back musically to 1724 for ‘St. John Passion’
If you go ■ What: Bach Collegium’s ‘St. John Passion’ ■ When: 7:30 p.m. Friday, April 15, St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church, 743 Prospect St., La Jolla; 7 p.m. Sunday, April 17, Point Loma Nazarene University ■ Roundtable: Discussion with the artists 45 minutes preceding each performance. ■ Tickets: From $15 ■ Contact: (619) 341-1726 ■ Website: bachcollegiumsd.org
Bach Collegium San Diego (BCSD), the city’s only Early Music performance ensemble, returns to its roots during its eighth season with the first piece it ever performed as a professional ensemble: The Bach “St. John Passion.” This dramatic masterwork will open on Friday, April 15 at St. James By-the-Sea and be repeated April 17 at Point Loma Nazarene University. BCSD will perform the St. John Passion in a chamber version, with eight soloists singing all the parts. Three of the artists are from San Diego, the others are coming from around the country to participate. The “St. John Passion” is a sacred oratorio from the Passions — original Latin title: “Passio secundum Johannem.” Arguably a little opera, it was composed by J. S. Bach for the Good Friday Vespers service of 1724, during the first winter he was responsible for church music at the St. Thomas and St. Nicholas churches in Leipzig. Bach’s contract as cantor of St. Thomas’ School in
Leipzig stipulated: “In order to preserve the good order in the churches, [he would] so arrange the music that it shall not be of such nature as not to make an operatic impression, but rather incite the listeners to devotion.” Although the Calvinists rejected opera, the Lutherans of Bach’s day gave it a warmer welcome, and understood how the genre’s undeniable rhetorical power could be used. Bach’s “St. John Passion” is often cited as evidence that he was capable of producing
operatic masterpieces, had he chosen to explore this genre. No musician understood rhetoric better than
Bach, and his fusion of the liturgical and the dramatic provides a view of Christ’s final hours, and the Chris-
tian believer’s response to this story. Bach Collegium San Diego was founded in 2003 by its music director Ruben Valenzuela to enrich San Diego’s music community with historically informed performances of the Renaissance, Baroque, and particularly, the vocal works of J.S. Bach. Its members bring longstanding experience from such ensembles as the Academy of Ancient Music (UK), American Bach Soloists, Festival Ensemble Stuttgart, and the Philharmonia Chorale. The ensemble participates in the festival Internacional del Organo Barroco in Mexico City.

And now for something completely different … Carnatic Music By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt When you think of Indian music, you probably think of the sitar, and the intricate beat of the tabla, the drum that accompanies it. This is Hindustani music, from the north of India, first popularized in the West half a century ago by Ravi Shankar. But the Indian Music & Dance Festival in his honor that’s coming to La Jolla’s Jewish Community Center April 13-17 will feature a different kind of Indian classical music. It’s a form that only recently started attracting Western attention — Carnatic music, from the southern part of the subcontinent. Though both forms are largely improvisational, Carnatic music includes more singing, and lacks the Persian and Islamic influences of northern music. Also — surprisingly — one of its featured instruments is the violin. The 4th annual festival, celebrating Ravi Shankar’s 91st birthday, includes five days of events, beginning

■ Saturday, April 16, 7:30-10:30 p.m. Ganesh/ Kumaresh: Internationally hailed violinists with an innovative approach to Indian classical music, who have also composed film scores. They’ll be accompanied by thavil and mrindigam.
■ Tickets: From $25 ■ Contact: indianfinearts.org ■ Opening ceremony: 7-10 p.m. Thursday, April 14, with Shashank, a bamboo flute player known for his distinctive technique and nominated for a Grammy in 2009, accompanied by violin and mrindigam with a musical workshop/ demonstration Wednesday evening. As always, the festival is produced by IFAASD, the Indian Fine Arts Academy of San Diego, a
Violin-playing brothers Ganesh/Kumaresh nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting Indian classical music. Most of the artists will be coming from India, and most of the festival’s attendees will be members of San Diego’s large Indian community. But IFAASD board member Divya Devaguptapu said that everyone will find plenty to enjoy in the concerts. “We’d like to attract as diverse an audience as possible, because we’re showcasing so many different and wonderful artists, all top in their fields,”
■ Sunday, April 17, 4:30-6:30 p.m. Lavanya Ananth: One of the leading exponents of the dance form called Bharathanatyam, this award-winning artist presents her performance as a soulful offering.
COURTESY
he said. If you want to choose just one concert, consider the Friday night performance of the great vocalist M. Balamuralikrishna, who is famous worldwide not only for his mesmerizing voice, but also for his numerous compositions, and his consummate musicianship on drums, violin, and viola. A recipient of many honors, he is the only Carnatic musician to be awarded the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French government.
La Jolla Light’s First
CAUGHT ON CAMERA Community Contest
my favorite
But Ganesh/Kumaresh, Saturday night’s dynamic duo of violin-playing brothers, are said to be fantastic, too. And what would a festival honoring Ravi Shankar be without the presence of the honoree, who still lives part of the year in Encinitas? He’ll be there on Saturday evening at 6:30, at a special ceremony honoring living legends that will also include
M. Balamuralikrishna. No music at this one, but a chance to see the great man in person. Last but not least: Another festival attraction is the food. Each event will feature tasty vegetarian dishes from a different region of India, prepared by volunteers and local restaurants. Come early, for a real taste of India before the music starts.

If you are selling a home or estate in La Jolla, read this... Prime Real Estate in La Jolla is a “Bargain” for Foreign Investors. The question is, do you or your agent know how to reach them effectively?
Foreign investors have both the money and desire to purchase La Jolla real estate. And they do. The question is, how do you attract their interest? How do you showcase your home or estate? The simple answer is, you target them where they get their news or information. And since they don’t live in the local area or read local newspapers, investors look at hyper-local websites like www. lajollalight.com searching for available properties. For example, the site attracts people from 115 countries and over a 30-day period in March, the site generated 32,826 visits from countries worldwide. It’s interesting to note that the sites largest number of daily
To reach foreign investors, be sure your agent has a well-developed marketing plan To sell your home or estate quickly and for the most money possible, a thorough marketing plan is a must. So make sure your agent’s plan includes: n Proper “staging” of your homeand property. n Showcasing your home or listing in the local paper—like The Light.

What one person thinks “expensive”, isn’t so to another. Everything is relative. This is especially true for those purchasing local real estate with Euros, Loonies, Yen or Yuan. In fact, for many European, Canadian, Japanese or Mexican real estate investors, purchasing prime coastal real estate in La Jolla can now be done at an amazingly steep discount. All thanks to Mr. Bernanke, who as you know, has continued to cut points in the Fed rate, which has helped trigger further declines in the dollar versus other foreign currencies. And as of this writing, the US dollar against the Euro currently hovers around $1.39, which can be a dream or a nightmare; all depending upon the denomination of ones bank account. La Jolla real estate has long been the desired target of many wealthy foreign investors. But with the falling dollar, La Jolla real estate has now become a screaming bargain to foreign investors around the world.
