BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com After public debate and a plea by Councilwoman Sherri Lightner to “move this process forward,” La Jolla Traffic & Transportation Board members approved a plan June 16 for improvements along Torrey Pines Road. After Lightner warned further delays could “prevent this project from ever being completed,”
the vote was 5-1-1 in favor of starting with the segment between La Jolla Shores Drive and Little Street, the first of four proposed segments to de done in the $26.5-million redevelopment the corridor. Dan Courtney cast the sole dissenting vote, noting he felt public safety should be the top priority — not which segment gets done first.

Gary Trousdale led Westwind Prep Academy (Phoenix) to back-to-back top 10 national high school rankings.
BY PHIL DAILEY phildailey@lajollalight.com La Jolla has never been known for producing elite college basketball players, but that may be about to change. San Diego native Gary Trousdale, who spent the past four years running the nationally ranked basketball program at Westwind Prep Academy in Phoenix, said Thursday he has set up shop in La Jolla with a basketball-only school that will be known as the La Jolla Prep Waves. Trousdale led Westwind, a charter school, to back-to-back top 10 national rankings the past two seasons and has produced 33 college players during the past three years. Twenty of those athletes have gone on to play at the Division I level,

‘Real World’ Watch: Let us know what you know We’re hearing bits and pieces about the crew and cast of “The Real World” showing up around town. If you spot the ‘Real World’ folks — or any other celebrities around La Jolla — please e-mail us and send us a photo at editor@lajollalight.com. We’ll be keeping our eyes out too! Here’s a little of what we’ve
learned in the past week: ■ For one, Extreme Pizza has delivered orders to the Chelsea Avenue house in Bird Rock on several occasions and we’ve heard that some businesses have reached out and welcomed them to the neighborhood. There’s apparently a tight lid on those who have “official” relationships with the production company, but Kevin
Smith, owner of Extreme Pizza, had no hesitation in noting that “they love our food.”
Acknowledging that if he lived near the house where the show is being filmed, he might “have a different view,” he said he feels that anything that promotes La Jolla or the greater San Diego area and brings people here is good for business and helps keep people employed. ■ Meanwhile, the first official word about the show came from

Flowers make Jacaranda a local favorite
Natural La Jolla
By Kelly StewArt
Most of the year, the Jacaranda is barely noticeable as a leafy thin tree that lines many of our boulevards and streets in La Jolla and San Diego. But in springtime, this tree comes alive with beautiful purple flowers that bloom and cascade onto the sidewalks below. The genus Jacaranda (which is the scientific name as well as the common name) includes 49 different shrubs and trees and is not native to San Diego — it was introduced from Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, as well as from the Caribbean. In Brazil, the wood of the Jacaranda is sometimes used for making acoustic guitars. Credit for importing the Jacaranda is generally given to Kate Sessions, who was San Diego’s celebrated horticulturist in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Often referred to as the Mother of Balboa Park, Kate Sessions imported many species including Jacaranda into the county, propagated them from 1892 onward in her nursery
A tall Jacaranda brightens a la Jolla neighborhood with its crown of purple flowers. in what is now Balboa Park, and then distributed plants and seedlings throughout the city. The Jacaranda is now finishing its spring bloom, just as we are welcoming summer. We’ll once again enjoy the flowers of the Jacaranda in the fall, when it experiences a less intense blooming period.

From July 4th, A1 Street, Bank of America at 5680 Girard Ave., 7877 Ivanhoe Ave. and Regents Bank at 875 Prospect. n Another La Jolla tradition is the 32nd annual 2011 Beaumont Avenue Fourth of July celebration. This year’s theme —“Happy Days on Beaumont” — commemorates the 60th anniversary of Bird Rock Elementary School. n Start time is 10 a.m. at the corner of Camino de la Costa and Beaumont Avenue. n Anticipate a full parking lot at La Jolla Shores, where police will set up a command post for the day. Last year the lot was full before many people were even out of bed. On the fireworks front, Deborah Marengo, board member of the La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation, said Monday she has “$27,900 with two commitments out that I haven’t received yet but am confident I will.” The show costs about $28,000 to $30,000 to produce, including post-event cleanup. Any amount raised over that will go toward the 2012 show, she said. Other fireworks displays will be held on San Diego Bay, at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, SeaWorld, over Glorietta Bay in Coronado, at the Mira Mesa Recreation Center, the Ocean Beach Pier, Santee Town Center and at Lake Murray.

W. Muirlands resident battling city over driveway repairs By Kathy Day kday@lajollalight.com West Muirlands Drive reopened last week, but Gina Tapper still can’t get into her driveway because there’s a five-foot-wide hole in it. But even as she fights a new battle, she reported Monday that the newly covered hole in the street once again has “an ‘impression’ or indentation in the newly poured asphalt which is the rectangular shape of a car. Cars and trucks are flying down the hill and bouncing down and then up.” She said she left a voicemail reporting it to Gus Brown, deputy director of the storm water division. Bill Harris, spokesman for the division, said Monday afternoon that crews “are aware of the report” and would get out to inspect it, probably on Tuesday. In the meantime, a police officer showed up to inspect the spot and called Brown to report what he saw, Tapper said. Since the repair project wrapped up, Tapper has been in a bit of a battle with the city over who’s going to make her driveway look like it did before crews began repairs on a corroded storm water pipe in front of the house. “They can’t call the job done,” she
said, noting that there’s still a hole where they had to dig and no curb along part of the street. Tapper was the first resident to report the “dip” in the street, which caved in five months later. She wants the city to restore her brick-paved driveway to the condition it was in before the cave-in on June 2, but city officials have told her they will put in concrete, asphalt or decomposed granite. Apparently the issue involves just where the property line falls and whether Tapper’s driveway improvements extend into the easement. Harris said Friday that storm water officials “are doing some analysis regarding the existing structure.” They have offered to pour concrete and make the driveway functional, but “she is insisting that it is restored to the way it was before.” Tapper said, and Harris confirmed, that she was told to contact the city’s risk management department and submit a claim accompanied by “two or three estimates.” A spokesman for Councilwoman Sherri Lightner said they are trying to help Tapper work through the risk management process as the details are sorted out. Late last week Tapper was waiting
for estimates, which she said are likely to include the cost of jack-hammering out additional bricks that were cracked during the repair process as well as weaving in new bricks to match the hold ones. “I’m not going to cave in,” she said. Meanwhile, residents along West Muirlands are awaiting word on when their street will become a detour during work on the water main replacement project on Nautilus Street. Ana Maria Rojas, spokeswoman for the city’s engineering and capital projects department, said via e-mail on Monday that work on Nautilus started on June 24. “They’re currently working close to the intersection of Aranda Avenue and heading east. (which) entails the closure of only the eastbound lanes on Nautilus,” she wrote. “The westbound lanes are currently being used for both directions during the construction working hours.” At this point, she added, they don’t have a firm date as “to when the full closure of Nautilus will take place, or when the traffic will be detoured to West Muirlands Drive.” For information on the project go to http://tinyurl.com/5ssjg9o.

Girard becomes a Chevy showplace By Giovanni Moujaes Sunday marked the first allChevrolet car and truck event in La Jolla. Howard Singer, the man hosting the event, was, and still is a long-time car collector and had organized several other car and truck events over many years. “This is the first all-Chevy meet I’ve put on, but collecting cars has been my passion since 1972,” said Singer. A majority of the 34 cars ranged from ‘50s to ‘70s models, with a few from other decades. Despite the cloudy weather, the automobiles continued to glisten down Girard Avenue. The cars and trucks varied from totally custom or those with a just few gauges or parts changed to complete classics. Some, like Pat Neuman’s ‘69 Camaro, hardly had anything stock, but still gave off a very authentic vibe. “I only kept the body and chassis. Everything else I threw out,” said Neuman. Pat’s ‘69 had brought her 100 trophies throughout the years and even 12 best in show awards here in
San Diego, recently receiving 1st place at the ‘09 La Jolla Motor Car Classic. Another unoriginal, yet oldschool automobile was Jim Boatright’s ’73 Z28 Camaro. Ever since he can remember, Boatright has been a car hobbyist, enjoying the collecting and riding aspects. “The car is not original, except the interior,” said Camaros and other classic Chevys line Girard Boatright, “but the orange and avenue. Photos Giovanni Moujaes black color makes it a total muscle car of the ‘70s.” Something that attracted a lot of people was the continued originality in many vehicles. The green, mainly original, ’63 Nova, owned by Ed Zubiate, was a real showstopper. Zubiate got the car in high school and hung on to it, making it now 41 years since that time. “After high school, the Nova old but not forgotten, this Chevy is from the ‘30s. went from being used as a drag racer, to a family car and now, it may not just a really nice car to drive be original, around,” said Zubiate. With but the everything original — except a Camaro 383cc stroker under the hood still finds a and a racing shifter — still inway to fit tact, the ’69 remains a car with right in. a lot of history.
Edsel’s design draws La Jolla man’s interest By Dave sChwaB staff Writer La Jollan Hillary J.E. “Bo” Fellows fell in love with the Edsel — Ford Motor Co.’s famous ‘50s flop, the first time he ever spied one. “My first Edsel I saw in a La Jolla Boulevard parking lot in front of a church in the early ‘80s: It was pretty beat up,” recalls the nostalgic car collector. “I bought it for like $300.” At the time, Fellows said he figured that if he was going to get involved with vintage vehicles, that he needed to “learn to restore those cars by buying one and seeing what was wrong.” Thirty years later, he now owns four Edsels, including a pink “chop top” convertible often parked in front of his family home on Virginia Way. He owns a number of other “throwback” vehicles including Cadillacs and Packards. But of all the cars in his collection, it’s still the Edsel that most piques his interest. “It’s the unique design, even though they’re considered to be the biggest car-producing mistake in history,” he said, adding they’re also quite rare. There are probably only about 4,000 Edsels — a model named for Henry Ford’s son — left out of the 120,000 that were sold.” The model, manufactured by Ford only during the 1958, 1959 and 1960 model years, was a classic victim of poor timing, he noted “They came out during the first post-war depression and nobody had any money to buy them.” Bo Fellows is the son of William F. Fellows, a World War II veteran who fled Singapore when it fell to the Japanese, eventually reaching India on an Allied destroyer where he see eDsel, a9

From road, a1 people reason to say, ‘Don’t go to La Jolla because you can’t get in there.’ ” “You get it going and the money will come,” said Lightner, noting momentum is all-important in a complex, longterm project of this nature that is vying with similar transportation projects elsewhere for state, local and federal subsidy dollars. In casting the vote, the T&T board members rejected a counterproposal backed by Robert Thiele and Sherri Nooravi, spokeswoman for an ad hoc Torrey Pines Corridor neighborhood group, which would have split the proposed project into eight “more bite-size” segments. “I’m excited we’ve come to the point where the project could start,” Nooravi said during the meeting. “But we feel safety is a big priority — and this message hasn’t been heard.” Nooravi added she and other neighbors are uncomfortable with cost considerations trumping safety concerns in deter-
mining which part of the redevelopment project gets done first After the meeting, Thiele wrote in an e-mail that “tonight was a powerful night of politics that may just prove to be the best solution in the long run. … I heard a commitment by Sherri to see this project through, all four segments of it. … I heard a room full of hope for a successful project.” A couple of people also expressed doubt that the project, as proposed, will ever be finished. Among them was Joe LaCava, a Bird Rock resident who argued that it might be preferable to do an abridged version of the project. “A $26 million project in four phases might never get done,” he said. “The better way to do it would be to downsize it to one $6 million or $7 million project: That would be a better solution, with a better chance of getting done, though it would make a lot of people unhappy.” The Torrey Pines Corridor Study previously approved by the City Council recommends 20 improvements including: • street cross sections and new guardrails, bollards and

City engineers have said Segment 4 from Little Street to La Jolla Shores Drive — the entrance to the Village and the longest segment — has the least cost because it has very few retaining walls and that the city has already allocated money to the design and building of those walls. T&T chair Todd Lesser noted there are other reasons for doing Segment 4 first. “There is not just acquisition of land involved but archaeological issues with Indian burial grounds in the Spindrift area,” he said. T &T’s ratification of Segment 4 may next be considered by La Jolla Community Planning Association which meets next on at 6 p.m. on July 7 at the La Jolla Rec Center.

Scripps Research Institute Associate Professor Marisa Roberto recently received the Cavaliere (knight) degree of the Italian Republic’s highest honor, the Ordine al Merito della Repubblica Italiana (Order of Merit), recognizing her scientific research in the neurobiology of addictive behavior. “Being recognized for my research is at the same time inspiring and humbling,” said Roberto, “especially being honored by Italy, my country of birth, with the Knighthood of the Republic. I am deeply grateful.” Roberto was knighted in a special ceremony at City Hall in Volterra, Italy, at an event coinciding with the second International Conference on Alcoholism and Stress Research. She organized the gathering with George Koob, chair of the Scripps Research Committee on the Neurobiology of Addictive Disorders. At Scripps Research, Roberto and her team focus on understanding basic mechanisms in the brain that trigger alcohol dependence and drug addiction. Uncovering how these mechanisms work can lead to developing new therapies to alleviate addictive disorders.

La Jolla entrepreneur teams up with Wyland By ElizaBEth SchnEidEr As Terry Kraszewski, CEO and co-founder of Whale Tails tortilla chips, talks about her product from behind the counter of Ocean Girl, her La Jolla Shores surf shop, it is clear that she has a serious passion for the ocean. So when it came time to choose the art for her two new flavors, Wyland — the world-renowned marine artist and environmentalist — was the perfect choice. “I was trying to find a way to work with the most famous marine artist in the world,” Kraszewski said. “Wyland is called the Michelangelo of the sea — he’s my favorite.” The partnership will feature one of Wyland’s famous seascapes on each of the three flavors of Whale Tails: the newly released Hawaiian barbecue will feature “Dawn of Creation,” the new blue corn flavor will feature “Orca Journey” and the original yellow corn will feature “Hawaii Endangered Species.” The rich colors and details which have made Wyland’s work so successful are also characteristics which make for an ideal, eye-catching graphic. “Our merchandisers and grocers are so excited because this packaging just jumps out at you,” Kraszewski said. “We’re thrilled to be associated with him.” The partnership, however, goes far deeper than art. Both Whale Tails and Wyland have always held fast to their goals of, as the Wyland foundation mission statement describes it: “promoting, protecting, and preserving the world’s ocean, waterways, and marine life.”
In order to pursue this shared aim, Kraszewski has announced that she will donate 10 percent of the profits from the new bags of chips to the Wyland foundation. “The more I learned about Wyland, the more I found out we’re doing exactly the same thing: education,” Kraszewski said. “That’s the key to making a difference: teaching children to be good stewards of the sea.” Steve Creech, the vice president of Wyland, says that the revenue raised from the chips sales will primarily go towards their “clean water mobile learning center.” This program, which is currently located at the San Diego County Fair, travels to schools across the nation to educate children about “urban runoff, habitat destruction and the importance of collaboratively managing water as a shared resource.” This commitment to ocean life has also been integral to both the product and the mission of Whale Tails since its inception in 2006. Whale Tails began in Ocean Beach as a stovetop experiment after a day of surfing, when Kraszewski and her co-founders realized that the anatomy of a whale’s tail would also lend itself to the perfect tortilla chip. “The same shape that allows whales, weighing over a ton, to move through the water is also a natural shape for loading up a couple of scoops of grilled pineapple/mango salsa or perhaps a mound of fresh guacamole,” the company website states. Aided by appearances in “Snack of the Day” on Rachel Ray and “Road Tested with the Neelys” on the Food Network, Whale Tails has

terry Kraszewski, cEO and co-founder of Whale tails and owner of Ocean Girl, and Wyland show off the new packaging he created for her line of tortilla chips. COURTESY grown quickly from its humble beginnings. The chips’ health merits – they are all-natural, organic, kosher, gluten-free and made from non-GMO ingredients – and distinctive flavors have since earned them inclusion in Whole Foods throughout California, as well as various aquariums, delis and amusement parks. And while she couldn’t be happier about the success, Kraszewski sees it primarily as a means to a much more important end. “To me, the whale tail is the symbol of ocean conservation,” she said. “We’re trying to make a difference in our environment and our ocean, one chip at a time.”
Cancer researcher and biotech executive Laura Shawyer, who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer will discuss how scientists learn from “therapeutic dilemmas and personal powerlessness” once they have been diagnosed with illness. Her July 6 presentation — Part of the Exploring Ethics program presented by The Center for Ethics in Science & Technology — will be given at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center’s Commnity Forum Room from 5 to 7 p.m. “As a cancer researcher and biotech executive who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, Shawver discovered that her professional standing gave her unusual access to sophisticated diagnostic tools that boosted chances of survival,” a press release states. “She believes that all cancer patients deserve similar access, and that moral principle has led her to establish The Clearity Foundation.” For information on the Ethics Center or its programs, call (858) 964-1346 or visit www.ethicscenter.net.

Awaiting college acceptance is unsettling By RogeR Li Editor’s Note: Recent La Jolla High graduate Roger Li has been chronicling the college application process for the Light. Here’s his latest take on it. At the start of second semester of senior year, I felt lost. After months of grueling applications and an intense academic workload, my essays were finally submitted and colleges were no longer scrutinizing my grades. It was a refreshing feeling, soon to be replaced with dread as I awaited college decisions. Since the beginning of senior year, I had told myself that where I was accepted didn’t matter. As long as I was admitted to one school that I could see myself going to, my college admissions process was a success. But as college notifications drew near, I began to doubt myself. Throughout high school, I epitomized the diligent student. Much of my time was consumed with academics, work and extracurriculars. I didn’t mind the amount of effort I spent on school. Learning and working gave me a sense of personal fulfillment and satisfaction. But I always believed in the mantra that hard work reaps the great-
Roger Li est rewards. The prospect that hard work might not be enough, especially with the schools I most wanted to attend, was unsettling to say the least. One day in mid-March, however, I received a pleasant surprise in the mail. Swarthmore College offered me “early write” admission, which is essentially early notification for applicants that are considered especially good fits for the school. Needless to say, I was incredibly relieved and happy. I had applied to Swarthmore on a whim after I was mailed a fee waiver. Over the next few weeks, I grew to appreciate Swarth-
more’s characteristic quirkiness. Once I learned of my admission to Swarthmore, my fears of attending a school I didn’t see myself at were assuaged. But I still hadn’t heard back from my top-choice schools. As time passed, I found myself becoming increasingly anxious. On “Ivy Wednesday,” the day of notification for all Ivy League universities, I felt surprisingly calm. I was hearing back from my top-choice school that day, but I realized that the difference between that school and the schools where I was already accepted was negligible. I had become the college-obsessed person that I never wanted to be. At the end of March 30, I had heard back from all the colleges I applied to. I was rejected from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Brown. I was wait-listed at Columbia and accepted to Vassar, New York University, University of Pennsylvania, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC Davis, Amherst and Swarthmore. Then, I was faced with the substantially less stressful but equally formidable challenge of choosing where I wanted to be for the next four years. Next: The decision is made and a new sense of anticipation arises.

From EdsEl, A5 fought the Japanese with the legendary Gurkhas. The senior Fellows later became a top insurance executive in Los Angeles and San Diego underwriting such companies as the former Pacific Southwest Airlines and Rohr Aircraft. Like his father, Bo Fellows too attained international notice. After a stint as a sportswriter for a local TV station, the younger Fellows got the chance to do some overseas professional modeling. “I was working at NBC Channel 39 in San Diego in sports in 1978 and I was working on my
resume and a gal in the graphics department said, ‘You’re photogenic. Have you ever shot any modeling pictures?’ ” Fellows said. The next thing he knew, he had some photos done and hired an agent who got him lots of commercial work in Europe during the ‘80s. “I lived in a tuxedo back in the day,” he said. “I was the top guy for an Italian line of clothing. I modeled clothing from all of the major designers — James Bond tuxedo stuff — mostly in Milan, Paris and Munich.” Fellows returned to La Jolla after his European modeling career
to care for his ailing mother. “I had to take care of and live close to my family home and all these (vintage) cars just started falling in my lap,” he said. “It’s not like I spent a lot of money on these cars.” Admitting he’s contracted the traveling bug again, Fellows said he intends to thin out his “herd” of nostalgic vehicles. “I’ll be selling about half of them,” he said. “I’ve really enjoyed them but it’s time for others to now.” Anyone interested in acquiring an Edsel can e-mail at bofellows@yahoo.com.

Keeling Curve leads to historic marker at Scripps The site where Scripps Institution of Oceanography geochemist Charles David Keeling launched what has become the world’s most famous record of human-caused climate change was memorialized by the American Physical Society during the annual Scripps Day event. The society added the Scripps campus to its register of historic sites for the work that began there that came to be known as the Keeling Curve. Scripps joins locations such as the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, at which are housed implements used by Benjamin Franklin in his study of electricity; New Jersey’s Bell Laboratories, where the transistor was invented; and the site at Montreal’s McGill University where Ernest Rutherford first identified radioactivity. The ceremony took place at the annual event honoring SIO alumni, students and faculty, at Scripps’ Ritter Hall, which building houses many of the original instruments Keeling invented to make ultraprecise measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations beginning in 1957. The measurements that feed the Keeling Curve have been made atop Hawaii’s Mauna Loa since 1958. The society selected the Scripps campus for the plaque dedication, however, citing it as the locale at which Keeling’s crucial development of the measurements and important interactions with Scripps Director Roger Revelle took place. “Revelle’s plan was to take a ‘snapshot’ of the planet’s carbon dioxide levels at a number of locations during the Internation-
Pacific Beach Condo On The Sand
al Geophysical Year (IGY) 1957-1958, and then repeat the observations a few decades later to see whether the predicted rise had occurred,” the society wrote in a summary of Keeling’s achievement. “But Keeling was so dedicated to precision that he was able to detect a rise within two years.” Keeling died in 2005 but son Ralph, himself a geochemist at Scripps Oceanography, has continued the carbon dioxide measurement series. “This is a tremendous honor. It’s great to see my father’s work honored in this way,” said Ralph Keeling.

In a buyer’s market, sellers have much to gain by pricing their property correctly when it is first listed. A home receives its best exposure during the first 3 to 5 weeks on the market. Multiple listing service statistics show that the longer a home is on the market, the lower the final selling price. When your home is priced right from the outset, you maximize your opportunity to reach the most qualified buyers in the shortest amount of time. If you want to sell your home quickly you will want to price it so that it stands out among comparably priced homes on the market. Your home’s value is usually determined by sales of comparable homes in your area with a similar size and amenities. If your home does not have similar amenities or as desirable location, it will sell for less. A house that has been on the market beyond the average marketing time generates little interest from buyers. Most buyers will assume that a home that has been on the market a long time has problems and they will want to avoid it. An experienced Realtor can guide you in determining a list price that will generate interest and showings for your property.

SELLING THE COAST
From Waves, a1 including San Diego State’s Jamall Franklin and University of San Diego’s Patrick McCollum. The new La Jolla program will have two teams just like the one in Phoenix, Trousdale said. One will be comprised of high schoolers and compete nationally; the other is a post-graduate team that will also compete nationally with other post-high school academies. “We will travel across the country and play other top programs,” Trousdale said. Trousdale will head up the program as well as coach the high school team, which will not compete with other CIF schools; rather, the Waves will play other national high school powers such as Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.) and Findlay College Prep (Henderson, Nev.). The new basketball academy will also have a post-graduate program for athletes who have already graduated from high school but are looking to improve their college stock. The academy is in the process of securing houses in La Jolla where the student-athletes will live. It will be under adult supervision and be run “like a college program,” according to Trousdale. “We have two (homes) that we’re looking at,” Trousdale said.
La Jolla Prep Waves A typical day, according to head coach Gary Trousdale ■ Get up a 6 a.m. and go through individual workouts ■ Go to class at an area high school ■ Practice after school in team setting ■ Lift weights
www.wavehoops.com
■ Study table (60 to 90 minutes) with a academic advisor ■ Second individual workout session
■ Curfew (Sunday-Thursday is 9:30 p.m.) Weekends (11 or 11:30 p.m.) ■ Lights out on weeknights is 10 p.m
“The way we run that is we have student-athletes living two to a room. We have adults who live in the house. We run it with very strict discipline.” Trousdale expects to have up to seven to nine athletes living in each house. “Right now, the plan is to rent, but we are in talks with some of our investors to purchase the homes,” he added. According to their website, “Our daily schedule, individual workouts, academic study table and time management is structured exactly like a high major program. When student-athletes

leave La Jolla Prep they are prepared to succeed at the highest level.” Trousdale said, “We will not accept a student-athlete who doesn’t buy into what we’re doing. Last year, I sent seven kids home from Westwind that didn’t buy in — I sent kids home that were Division I athletes.” Giving back to the community is also part of the plan for the Waves. “We’re very big with community service,” Trousdale said. “In fact, we had kids volunteering their time five days a week, helping out with special education

That will definitely be a priority for us in La Jolla.” Tuition to attend the basketball academy is listed on the the team’s website (www.wavehoops. com) at $28,650 for high school and $27,875 for post-grad. There is also a $5,000 deposit that is non-refundable and tuition of $30,210 for international students. Should they choose a private school, the tuition is on top of their La Jolla prep expenses. Student-athletes who play for the Waves will enroll in an area high school. For the post-grad students, they can work on col-

lege courses — up to nine per NCAA rules — while attending La Jolla Prep. Trousdale said the Waves will be affiliated with two specific school in La Jolla or San Diego, although he said Friday he was not ready to announce the specifics. A spokesman for La Jolla Country Day School said Thursday two students recently toured the campus. Christopher Lavin said the students told Country Day officials they were part of a basketball program coming to California and were looking for a school to attend their senior years. They have not returned or submitted applications, Lavin added. Officials at The Bishop’s School said they had not heard of La Jolla Prep as did La Jolla High School Principal Dana Shelburne. Should students want to enroll at LJHS, he added, they would be required to have legal documentation saying their parents had given the person they are living with “educational purview.” La Jolla High basketball coach Kamal Assaf said he heard about the elite basketball program coming to La Jolla and is excited to see them and possibly learn from the coaches. “It’s never been done in San Diego, let alone in La Jolla,” Assaf

From Waves, a10 said about the program. Trousdale said he expects the teams to play as many as 35 games, 15 or so of which will be held in La Jolla. They have yet to announce where the team will practice and play, but Trousdale said it would be in La Jolla. “That was my first target when I decided to be in San Diego,” Trousdale said. Coaching the post-graduate team is Bobby Bossman, a former Division I basketball player at Loyola of Maryland. Bossman was teaching at Westwind last year as well as coaching the post-graduate team. Prior to joining Trousdale, Bossman was a graduate assistant and video coordinator at Cleveland State University where he received his masters degree in curriculum and instruction-literacy development in 2009. Trousdale, who is a graduate of Kearny High and Point Loma Nazarene University, said he decided to move back to San Diego because his father was recently diagnosed with ALS, a motor neuron disease more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. He has been coaching for more than 25 years with stints at the University of San Francisco, the University of Tulsa, the University of Portland and San Francisco State University. There is some debate over whether or not Trousdale will bring any of his players with him from Westwind. According to the Arizona Republic, Arizona’s Small School Player of the Year, Demarquise Johnson, was featured on the La Jolla Waves’ website. The website also has a
link to Chris Thomas, who according to the Phoenix paper, has left Westwind. Thomas (6-foot-5) is ranked as the No. 3 point guard in the nation for the class of 2013. Trousdale said no players on Westwind’s 2A state championship team from the past season will be joining him in La Jolla. Trousdale confirmed that Thomas recently withdrew from Westwind and, though he was listed on that team’s roster at maxpreps.com, he never played in a game. “There was some misunderstanding that those kids were coming to La Jolla,” Trousdale said. “In fact they weren’t. “Chris Thomas is not going back to Westwind and is definitely a possibility of someone that we would love to have at La Jolla Prep and we are pursuing him to transfer to La Jolla Prep,” Trousdale added. “Anyone else that was at Westwind last year will not be transferring to La Jolla Prep.” In regard to the photos that were on the website, they are no longer there, according to Trousdale. Trousdale also wanted to be clear that he’s not going to lure players from surrounding high schools to play for him. “The biggest thing is to let all the high school coaches in (San Diego) know that we’re here to help — we’re not going to recruit their players.” The team is expected to start practicing in August and a final roster should be released by Sept. 1. The high school team’s first competition is expected to be Oct. 6 at a tournament in Texas.
Researchers get grants for work in children’s cancers Robert Wechsler-Reya, Ph.D., of SanfordBurnham Medical Research Institute, and Alice Yu of UCSD, are among this year’s recipients of grants from the Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to finding a cure for all children with cancer. Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation emerged from the front-yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra “Alex” Scott, who died when she was 8. In 2000,
4-year-old Alex announced that she wanted to hold a lemonade stand to raise money to help find a cure for all children with cancer. The idea has evolved into a national nonprofit started by her parents. The foundation recently announced nearly $4 million in new medical research grants to 29 institutions and universities in 16 states across the country, totaling 40 new grants.

Judge stands by ruling to keep Children’s Pool rope down By Dave SchwaB Staff Writer The rope at the La Jolla Children’s, intended to discourage people from disturbing the seals, will remain down until the marine mammals’ pupping season resumes Dec. 15. Superior Court Judge Lisa Foster on Thursday declined to reconsider her June 3 decision ordering that the controversial rope be taken down and denied a request from Animal Protection & Rescue League (APRL) attorney Bryan Pease that a new temporary restraining order should be granted to put the rope back up. Foster had initially granted a TRO allowing the warning rope to remain up past the end of the seals’ pupping on May 15, when it was supposed to be removed. But the legal issues involved in the longstanding battle over the rope — designed as a guide to separate pinnipeds from beachgoers — and when it should be up remain. On July 15, Foster will hear final arguments on Pease’s legal challenge asserting that the Planning Commission acted erroneously in overruling an earlier San Diego City Council decision that the rope should be put up year-round at the pool to protect seals from public harassment. “What’s new?” the judge asked Pease on Thursday. Pease said he had signed declarations from two former and two current city council members supporting his contention that the Planning Commission — as a lower legislative body — didn’t have the right to overrule the council’s finding that the rope was needed as a permanent safeguard for the harbor seals.
“The City Council found that the rope barrier doesn’t impede lateral (human) movement at all, while the Planning Commission said it blocked 97 percent of the beach,” said Pease, illustrating the conflict in interpretation by the two legislative bodies. Pro-seal advocates have for some time been documenting what they allege to be blatant disregard for the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) at Children’s Pool. The act maintains that virtually any activity that disturbs the marine mammals, causing them to be scared into the water, is a violation. Foster, however, remarked on a video of the recent 80th anniversary celebration of the dedication of Children’s Pool, in which seals were in close proximity to people on the beach but didn’t flush. “Where is the irreparable harm?” Foster queried. “People should not be getting that close to wild animals,” answered Pease, adding that is why the MMPA was enacted. “This is just a rehash of old arguments,” said Ken Hunrichs, who wants the public to have access to the beach alongside the seals, after the court hearing. When asked whether he had ever witnessed seal harassment at the pool, Hunrichs replied, “Not intentionally. Sometimes seals flush when people get too close to take pictures, but that happens during a time of the day when they would normally be going in the water anyway.” The next hearing on seals at Children’s Pool will be at 2:30 p.m. July 15 in Dept. 60 of the San Diego Superior Court, 330 W. Broadway St.

UC San Diego undergrad’s collaboration with National Geographic leads to internship By chriS Palmer UCSD An undergraduate student’s collaboration with National Geographic to develop aerial photography technology for archaeological expeditions has earned him an internship with the prestigious organization. A graduating senior in mechanical engineering at UCSD’s Jacob’s School of Engineering, Alan Turchik has been working with the National Geographic Society (NGS) to develop a stabilization mechanism for a camera mounted to an aerial platform that takes bird’s-eye-view photos of archaeological dig sites. Turchik’s camera platform project was one of the first two funded by the UCSD-NGS Engineers for Exploration program, a 2-year old collaboration between NGS and the UCSD division of the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2). Turchik’s introduction to the intersection between engineering and archaeology oc-

curred on a dig in Jordan headed by Thomas Levy, professor and Norma Kershaw Endowed Chair in the Archaeology of Ancient Israel and the Neighboring Lands at UCSD and associate director of the Center of Interdisciplinary Science for Art, Architecture, and Archaeology (CISA3). Once in Jordan, Turchik found the camera platform system, normally tethered to the ground and held aloft with a helium balloon 100 feet to 200 feet above the dig site, was subject to being haphazardly blown around by even moderate wind, constantly putting the camera out of position. Upon returning to UCSD, Turchik began work on redesigning the camera platform as an intern at the Circuit Lab at Calit2 with mentor and NGS explorer Albert Yu-Min Lin. Lin, who is a research scientist with the CISA3 at Calit2, was named National Geographic Adventure Magazine’s Adventurer of the Year for his high-tech search for the hidden tomb of Genghis Khan.

Keep fine-tuning Torrey Pines Road plans OuR View Work on the Torrey Pines Road Corridor Project is still a ways down the pike, but we think last week’s Traffic & Transportation Board vote is a step in the right direction. On a 5-1-1 vote, board members agreed with the city’s recommendation to start with Segment 4. Running from Little Street to La Jolla Shores Drive, this piece is the longest, but the least costly, because it requires few retaining walls and money is already allocated to design
and building of those walls. It’s also a bit less complex because it doesn’t have right-of-way issues that must be cleared up before any work can move forward. Not everyone thinks starting there is wise — either because they want smaller segments, a different one or safety before beauty. But Sherri Lightner was probably right when she said if any more delays get in the way, it’s possible the roadblock may be too much to overcome. We share the concerns of those who have raised questions about traffic controls during the project
Remembering George
and exacerbating the image that “It’s impossible to get into La Jolla” which merchants say is hurting business. But we also share the concern that the hillside needs to be stabilized, sooner rather than later. Imagine how tough traffic would be in the case of even a small landslide in that area. Some money is available now to start on that work, and with the city willing to work some of the safety and traffic control measures in at the same time, La Jollans would be foolish to reject the project out of hand. Getting even a small part of it
done is better than none. We hope La Jolla Community Planning Association trustees (who may take up the measure on July 7) agree with the traffic and transportation committee members. That vote will be the last stop before the project goes to the city council. When that happens, we urge those who have worked so hard to get their concerns about safety heard should keep pushing because we know full well that those walking or cycling — and driving — that stretch of road are taking a risk every day.

Bird Rock lost one of its favorite sons on June 8, 2011. The sudden passing of George Sutton has sent the community reeling in shock. On behalf of the BRCC, we are deeply saddened by the loss of such a great icon, and our thoughts and prayers are with his family. George moved to Bird Rock years ago with his wife and two sons. He owned a business that allowed him the flexibility to work from home, and enjoy the reason most people, live in Bird Rock — the community by the sea. Not surprisingly, George did much more than enjoy the scenery. He loved his community. George was a quiet, but effective leader. He felt a deep sense of responsibility to the people of Bird Rock, and when he took action, he always followed through. His successful stewardship of many major projects went largely unnoticed by the public. This was because George preferred to get things done, rather than talk about them. He was an inspiration and capably guided the BRCC board without ever letting us know he was the architect of so many good decisions. George was deeply involved in the early days of the redevelopment of Bird Rock. He accepted the heady challenge of addressing transportation issues, which included much more than creating the roundabouts. Our parking, striping of curbs, relocation of bus stops and the choice of hours for Boulevard parking did not just magically appear. Someone had to take it on, and George was one of those people. His personality suited the job. It took someone with confidence and powerful diplomacy skills to in-
terface with city representatives, merchants, residents and an endless stream of naysayers, all of whom had different ideas about what was needed. He did it, yet rarely took credit for possessing such amazing talent. George didn’t stop there. After the roundabouts were installed, he continued to address the need for further evolution. Pedestrian safety at cross-walks and beautification of the Boulevard did not always peacefully co-exist. As plant life grew, the visibility at many intersections decreased. George made sure we could have both. Thanks to his early efforts, many of us cross the streets taking for granted his studied improvements. George also conceived a decorative lighting project for Bird Rock. Talk about complicated. He took on all aspects of this project — engineering, design, budgeting and future capabilities, to name a few. He took his concepts to the public and politely responded to substantial inquiry. In the end, he won the support of the community. George was all about family too. When conflict occurred in the neighborhood, he got involved. He looked out for the children of BRE, even though his sons were in middle school. He supported the BRCC’s efforts to bring safety to our interior streets, reduce crime and eliminate nuisance activities. Most notably, he saw the neighbors through the successful completion of the Safe Streets action. If you’ve walked through our streets and business district, chances are you are walking in George’s footsteps. He was that good. These are just a few words about a man who did so much, yet expected so little in return. Bird Rock is truly a better place because of him. May God bless his family.
COmmuniTY LeadeR’s View By Phil Coller President, La Jolla Village Merchant Association We are now interviewing candidates for the position of executive director of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA). With this appointment the LJVMA will be fully functional. On May 15, we signed the contract to manage the La Jolla Business Improvement District (BID), on June 18; we received the first tranche of BID funds. The four advisory committees formed are now meeting on a regular basis and are forming sub groups for tackling specific tasks. Our goal is to reestablish La Jolla Village as a community that blends residential, business, arts, nature and friendliness. To do that, we are seeking help — in the form of ideas and time from businesses and residents so we can identify and tackle projects that can revitalize all aspects of our community. For example, projects could include beautification, street lighting, cleanliness, events, and creating a green and
sustainable La Jolla. Others might include groups to channel the efforts of not-for-profit organizations, to support particular business sectors like restaurants, hotels, etc., or perhaps one to work on getting the right mix of new businesses to La Jolla and much more. There are no restrictions to the ideas you can propose. We need participation from the community to put projects into effect so please consider participating, attend meetings to put ideas into effect. Send e-mails with your ideas to info@ lajollabythesea.com. You will not need to commit to endless committee meetings. Just attend one to make a presentation of your idea or several to keep the momentum going. The most time we hope from anyone committed is five hours per month. We are seeking proposals to build a new community website that will provide all La Jollans with a forum for discussion about La Jolla and information on everything you will need to know about our beautiful Village. For those interested in making a proposal please contact rlane@lajollalight.com for details.

Dorothy “Jerry” Halleman 1919 – 2011
Jerry Halleman passed away on June 18, 2011, at the Glenbrook Care Center in Carlsbad, California, with her daughter, Dawn Farson, and son, Michael Cooper at her bedside. Jerry was born 92 years ago in Henryetta, Oklahoma, to Roy and Mae Finley Harman. In 1945 she came to live permanently in California with her parents in Long Beach. In choosing her places of residence, she joined other members of the Harman family, her late cousins, Robert Harman, Jimmy Harman, and Maria Helen Smith, who had moved to the San Diego area, establishing themselves in La Jolla. Jerry moved to Point Loma in the late 1940’s, then to Pacific Beach, La Jolla and finally Rancho Santa Fe. After a brief marriage to George Cooper, Jerry married Herbert C. Halleman in 1966. Rancho Santa Fe was their home for the last 21 years where they enjoyed their retirement and playing golf until Herb’s death in 1996. In the last few years her memory faded and she became more and more fragile. Even though she was limited, she always made everyone around her feel special, a quality she possessed throughout her life. A few days before her passing, with all of her family at her bedside, still
trying to make us feel special, she managed with great effort to tell us she loved us. Those were her final words. We will miss her, her optimism, her generous and loving spirit, and her deep devotion to her family and friends. We, her family, Michael and Celeste Cooper, Kelly and Brittany Cooper, Dawn Farson, Richard Farson, Joel and Sherry Farson, Ashley, Savannah and Jamey Bush, Jeremy Farson and her many cousins, nieces and nephews, will cherish her memory and loving spirit in our hearts forever. A private ceremony will be held at the Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery where she will be with her late husband, Herbert C. Halleman.

(AEDs) at all of its 11 branches throughout California and its corporate offices and all staff will receive training on their use as well as in first aid and CPR. The devices, which deliver a life-saving shock to the heart to halt rapid, chaotic heart activity to restore normal heart rhythm, will also be available to businesses, communities surrounding the bank branches where they will be located, the bank’s press release noted. When the AED is activated, an ambulance is automatically called to the scene. The goal of San Diego’s PAD Program is to improve the survivability of sudden cardiac arrest by making the devices as accessible as fire extinguishers in any and all public and private arenas.

LJYB all-star teams thrive in PONY tournament After the playoffs are over and the champions and runners-up receive their trophies, there is still more baseball to be played for 10 LJYB All Star teams in five divisions as they enter the official PONY Sectional Tournament — Southern Section. Bronco Red dropped their first game 13-6 to rival Tecolote Red and bounced back with a 12-3 thumping over Paradise Hills. Needing to stay alive in an elimination game against North City Red, they suffered a tough 15-2 loss to end their tournament play. Bronco 11s team advanced to the regional round of the PONY tournament by defeating Ramona and North City in the South Sectional round at North City. La Jolla pummeled Ramona 28-2 in the first game on Saturday morning. Sterling Hayes pitched a gem for La Jolla and was backed by flawless team defense including a number of clutch plays from Nick Hammel at third and Carson Greene at shortstop. Hayes was 4-for 5-with three home runs and had 10 RBI including two home runs during a 19-run La Jolla attack in the top of the fifth. Noah McBride added a laser-like home run to straightaway center field. Leadoff hitter Greene jump-started the La Jolla attack
with a couple of opposite field bombs off the left field fence. Evan Benham added two hits for La Jolla during the 19-run inning. The mercy rule was applied and the game ended after five innings. The team moved on to play North City in game two and beat them in an exciting contest on the North City field 8-6, thus avenging a bitter 4-2 loss suffered during the Memorial Day tournament. Carson Greene pitched seven strong innings to get the win while La Jolla’s offense provided a balanced attack with key hits delivered by Garrett Brown, Noah McBride and Nick Hammel. Down by two runs in the bottom of the fifth with two outs, North City had runners on second and third with one of their strongest hitters at the plate. As fans intently looked on and cheered their respective teams, the batter drove a pitch hard to center fielder Evan Benham who chased down the ball and made an athletic catch to end the game and preserve the win for La Jolla. In game three, La Jolla lost 13-10 to North City, but Noah McBride and James Shimashita kept them in the hunt with solo home runs.

James Shimashita came on in relief to close out the 3-1 Sectional title for La Jolla. Noah McBride, Nick Hammel, and Kenny Hayden were offensive contributors. Mustang Red opened their tournament minus five of their original players. With coach David Ring leading the team, they put together a 13-4 win over North City with
Trevor Ace hitting a three-run blast and Daniel Massaad doing the same. Blaise Gimber, Marco Molina and Carsten Fehlan combined a solid pitching rotation. They won game two 9-8 over Mira Mesa Blue, followed by a 9-7 win over Ramona Blue. Should they beat Chula Vista South in their next game, they will advance to the Regional tournament over the Fourth of July weekend in Carlsbad.

SDSU’s Leonard drafted, traded to San Antonio Former San Diego State men’s basketball standout forward Kawhi Leonard was selected by the Indiana Pacers with the 15th pick in the 2011 NBA Draft at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J., last week. Later in the evening, Leonard was traded to the San Antonio Spurs. As a result, Leonard finds himself on a team that went 61-21 last season en route to its eighth division title in the last 13 seasons. The Spurs, which have won the NBA championship four times since 1999, have made the playoffs each of the last 14 seasons. For San Diego State, Leonard is the second first-round NBA draft pick in program history and first since Michael Cage was taken 14th by the Los Angeles Clippers in 1984. In two seasons on Montezuma Mesa, Leonard averaged 14.1 points and 10.2 rebounds, including a career-best 15.5 points and 10.6 rebounds.

T
he 95th installment of the La Jolla Tennis Championships got under way last week with several of the area’s top players in action at the La Jolla Tennis Club. For the past 95 years, the tennis tourna-

From Pony, A18 The Mustang Blue team played their hearts out and hung in through five tight innings against strong Tecolote Red and Ramona Red teams before letting the games slip away, bringing their tournament to an end. Mustang 9s beat Chula Vista in the bottom of the sixth. They were tied 7-7 going into the sixth with the bases loaded and two outs. Jack Scoma ripped a double to the fence and cleared the bases giving La Jolla a 10-7 lead. Calvin Hyttinen came in and closed it out with some amazing help from Noah Brown (second base) and Austin Schroeder (SS). The final was 10-8 and Jack Scoma had six RBI for the game and threw out three base runners stealing. They went on to beat North City 9’s 11-5 in the semi-final game with Patrick Ryan pitching a complete game. They lost the Sectional championship game to Tecolote Red but advance to the Regional tournament as runner-up. Pinto Red won their first game 16-7 over
Paradise Hills highlighted by a three-run homer by Tyler Blackburn. It was a total team effort according to coach Bo Solis. It was a tough 12-8 loss in game two to North City and dropped to the elimination bracket, where they beat Tecolote Blue 17-10 and hopefully advance to the Regional tournament. The Pinto Blue team was hit by the summer vacation bug and had to call up six firstyear players from the White team. After dispatching Tecolote White 18- 6 in four innings (mercy rule), the new players made their presence known in a late 13-12 comefrom-behind win in the second game against Tecolote Blue. Double plays turned by infielders Tony Ide and Johnny Leutzow, plus plate blocking by catcher Cole Duffy, and an incredible rallykilling catch by left fielder Max La Grange all contributed to the win. Timely doubles by slugger Nate Latimer and a game winning two-run single by Hunter Kates led to the win and their improbable run in the winners bracket.

Rev. Randal Gardner continues his spiritual journey at St. James The Rev. Randal Gardner has been a teacher, salesman and Episcopal priest. He has been married to Cathy, a nearly high-school Rev. Randal Gardner sweetheart, for 36 years. They have two grown sons, and their third rescued dog. Rev. Gardner is about to mark his fifth year as the rector of St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church. Most of his career was in the Seattle area, apart from seminary in Berkeley, and a year of study and work at Oxford University. He has helped the church sort out its important priorities as the chairman of a task force on human sexuality; as a coordinator for Christian formation for students preparing to be ordained, as president of the nation’s largest independent hunger response program (Northwest Harvest in Washington State); and working with a local organization, Episcopal Community Services. He spends two weeks each summer teaching doctoral students how to evaluate their ministry goals as an adjunct faculty member for the Doctor of Ministry program at the Virginia Theological Seminary.

If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? Traffic — more on the way to church, less in general. But there’s no such thing as magic, so it’s either a matter of improving the mindset or working hard to craft the changes. Who or what inspires you? I am most easily moved by stories of redemption, of people who are touched by grace and given hope in a time of trouble. Jesus Christ is the source of much of that inspiration, but it

New chef stirs up Mediterranean Room’s fare with fresh, international flavors By Will Parson he tides are shifting at Mediterranean Room this summer. The menu is being refreshed and the management has brought in renowned Chicago chef Jason McLeod as a temporary consultant to revitalize the historical La Jolla hangout. Staying true to its name, the new menu from executive chef Lance Repp stretches from Spain to Greece (with many stops between) with a feel that is light, healthful and exciting. McLeod notes positive trends all over San Diego’s restaurant scene as part of the impetus for change. He says the city is catching up with dining hot spots around the country. “It’s an exciting time to be here and we want to be a part of that.” New dishes — two or three at a time — are popping up on the menu, matching a heightened emphasis on seasonal local ingredients from sources like Chino Farms and Crows Pass Farm. New events include the Mediterranean Nights every Thursday through Saturday, featuring music on the patio with
T Pan roasted scallops with morel mushroom, fava beans, and pea shoots.
With the view facing the Pacific, it’s easy to see why the Mediterranean room used to be called the surf room until the 1960s.

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 Mediterranean Room’s Eggplant Caponata tapas and small tasting plates that should be great to grab between dances. Monday night barbecues offer three courses on the patio, and Sunday Suppers offer a threecourse meal served family-style. Chef Lance has been at Mediterranean Room for two years, but moved up to executive chef last September. He says his training is in traditional French cuisine, but that he gravitates toward other Mediterranean fare, such as Spanish and Italian, as well as Indian cuisine (some curries should appear on the menu in the near future). While the restaurant has struggled with a large menu in the past, Chef Lance’s approach has been to
clean it up and pare it down. His newer dishes, like the King Salmon, focus on just a few carefully prepared, fresh and delicious ingredients. The key at Mediterranean Room has perhaps been a level of consistency despite the changes. The staff is confident in the direction it’s heading, and new dishes aren’t overwhelming the existing menu overnight. And part of the new efforts, says McLeod, has simply been to look at why people came to the Mediterranean Room at various points in its history. After all, guests have enjoyed a pretty nice view of the ocean for the better part of a century.

At the airport, you’ve gotta have art! By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Every day of the year, some 48,000 people pass through San Diego International Airport (SDIA). Most of them, busy with plans and luggage, never really notice the art displays gracing the walls, floors and halls. The lucky ones stop, look, and admire. Sometimes they even take time to contact the artists. Since 1998, SDIA has been part of a national Airport Art Program, which fosters relationships with local artists and cultural organizations and brightens the airport experience for meeters, greeters, and travelers inside and outside security checkpoints. On June 12-14, SDIA hosted the American Association of Airport Executives’ Ninth Annual Arts in the Airport Workshop, which included a two-hour art tour led by art program manager Constance Y. White. A former public art coordinator from Dallas, she has been here, infusing the program with her energy and imagination, since 2006. “She’s a rock star! She’s full of personality, and she’s

White, who is constantly scouting for new artists, discovered Steorts at Art Walk three years ago. His work is in a post-security area, so you’d have to fly in or out of San Diego to see it. But there’s time: Most temporary exhibits are displayed for six months. And there are many delights in pre-security places.

Sometimes called “Steely Stan,” it’s part of the “legacy collection,” commissioned in 1997, when the Port of San Diego still managed the airport and the art. The most recent commission, also outdoors, is a comic strip mural installed a
one of Jeffrey steorts’ medieval/mechanical/mystical pieces on view in the postsecurity area in terminal 2. month ago along Terminal 2’s pedestrian bridge. Featuring Charles Schulz’s beagle aviator, Snoopy, “Sky’s the Limit!” is a six-panel piece created by 19 cartoonists and illustrators, a tribute to aviation and comic art. Visible from nearly all parts of Terminal 2, indoors and out, is Joan Irving’s “Wind Dance,” a band of etched and painted glass 520 feet long and 2-½ feet high that spans a good part of the terminal entrance. Just look up: You can’t miss it. Though the piece was a major challenge for the artist, she’s now at work on a 1,200-foot project for the lobby of New York’s Empire State Building. Another temporary exhibit in Terminal 2 is “Paper Play,” a decade-by-decade history of fashion that’s the work of seven middle-school

These are only the tip of the art-berg. There are eight different temporary exhibition areas, and dozens of permanent installations on display. Come for the art, and stay for a performance: There’s music twice a month, every second and fourth Friday evening, with special events at other times during the year.

La Jolla Playhouse stages adaptation of Ibsen’s ‘Peer Gynt’ By Diana Saenger When Henrik Ibsen released “Peer Gynt” in 1867, he thought his play was so bizarre that it would never be performed. The plot involves Peer, a man who both swindles and charms his way through life looking for fame and fortune, but who has dreams of becoming a troll that are very real to him. Now, 144 years later, the infamous work is still being staged, as La Jolla Playhouse’s version (a co-production with the Kansas City Repertory Theatre) runs through July 24 at the Sheila and Hughes Potiker Theatre. Director and “adaptor” David Schweizer (“Tobacco Road”) began directing right out of college. His repertoire includes everything from operas to casino shows, as well as national and international theatrical productions staged regionally and Off-Broadway. His direction of the 2000 Broadway hit, “And God Created Great Whales,” won an OBIE Award. Schweizer did an earlier adaptation of “Peer Gynt” for international audiences, but made minor changes for the Playhouse show. His “Peer Gynt” is a sweeping epic with five actors playing 40 characters. “I fell in love with the piece as young man,” Schweizer said. “And I hit upon the idea of doing it with just a couple of actors as the

FROM 10 questiOns, B1 is the stories of the saints — Paul, Barnabas, Iulia de Beausobre (a Russian woman of the 20th century), Dr. Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela — that bring tears to my eyes. What are you reading? I’ve had a hard time with reading over the past two years because of some vision troubles. But I pretty faithfully get through Time Magazine, a number of online newspapers, some journals that come to the church office and Smithsonian.

La Jolla woman campaigns for a school in rural Cambodia By KirBy BrooKs Supplying a young girl in Cambodia with just $10 a month can make her the breadwinner of her family, help to eradicate poverty, and probably keep that child out of the sex trade. This is the message Nicole Sahin of La Jolla is trying to get across through her partnership with American Assistance for Cambodia. Established by a journalist to provide opportunities for Cambodian children, the program seeks to stop the disturbing cycle that places children, girls in particular, into the sex industry. Sahin, senior director of the international business consulting firm, High Street Partners, has made it her mission to raise funds to start a school for children in rural Cambodia to provide them with an education that will allow them to live a life they could otherwise only dream of. Sahin has visited more than 50 countries and circumnavigated the globe twice. She said her travels provided her with a window

Nicole M. sahin on how others live. “My trips have made me see how much further money can go in other places,” she explained. “I want to show that you can make a huge difference with something that is so attainable.” Her excitement is infectious. She has recruited a team of seven inspired women to help her build the school. Their goal is for each to raise $2,500 to 3,000. Her team is comprised of Denise Hummel of Carlsbad; Sayaka Adachi of Vista; Los Angeleslocal Mary Murphy; Carolyn Taylor Meyer, who lives up the coast in Monterey; Bostonite Jeannette Van Der Velde; and Casie Gambrel, an expat living in Australia.
The estimated cost of building a school in rural Cambodia is $19,000. sabin and her friends have raised $7,000 to date. COURTESY PHOTOS Since May 26, they have collectively raised $7,000. “I’d been thinking about this for a long time, and once I recruited these women, I knew it was possible to build the school,” Sahin said.

“There are two tools to eradicating poverty: educating women and having a well.” In Cambodia, 10 percent of children die before their first birthday, and many of these deaths are related to waterborne diseases. “The school is just the beginning. It will have a well that will provide access to clean water. We don’t think about something that simple, but access to clean water there is

key,” Sahin insisted. The Asian Development Bank will match funds raised for the construction of the school. It’s estimated the total cost of the building, with 3 to 6 classrooms, desks, chalkboards, and materials, is $19,000. Funds will also provide for a nationally certified teacher for two years, as well as a computer, solar panel to power the school, and a bookcase full of texts.

The school’s opening ceremony is slated for spring/ summer 2012. Once the school is up and running, however, Sahin and her team’s work will still not be done. These ambitious women plan on arranging microfinance opportunities in the village, as a way to provide work opportunities for graduates and to stimulate the economy in the targeted village.

Pawz up: Brew House ‘yappy hour’ to aid wounded veterans program By Jenna Jay La Jolla Brew House will host a “yappy hour” on its dog-friendly patio from 5 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, July 12 as a fundraiser for the Pawz for Wounded Veterans program. In addition to a raffle, 15 percent of sales from food and drink sold during this time will be donated to the program, which works to place service dogs with wounded military men and women — free of charge — to extend their mobility and independence. Pawz for Wounded Veterans is a program through Canine Support Teams that has placed 25 service dogs (and counting) with veterans since its inception in 2009. The program operates with the help of volunteers like Jennifer Blanchard, who is chairing the Brew House event. “We’ve always placed veterans with dogs,” Blanchard said, “but with these wars that have been going on and seeing our young military men and women coming back with PTSD, missing arms and legs, agoraphobia … all sorts of disabilities … we decided that as a group,

Jennifer Blanchard and pal. we really wanted to do something for them. They’ve done so much for us, let’s do something for them.” Waiving the $250 application fee and most other expenses that go along with obtaining a service dog, Pawz for Wounded Veterans covers the operating costs for veterans. The program has clients in San Diego County and across the state, and runs mostly on donations. Blanchard herself is a testament to the benefits of a

service dog. She received a labradoodle named Ike from Canine Support Teams four years ago, and proclaims that the support she has gotten from Ike has changed her world. Living with hereditary angioedema, which causes
swelling in her muscles and has accounted for nearly 100 surgeries in less than 15 years, Blanchard was confined to extended periods of rest and recovery before Ike stepped in with assistance. Paying only the application fee for Ike (as opposed to up
to $30,000 in fees that some service dog organizations charge), Blanchard said her life changed instantly when she brought Ike home. “Ike can pick things up if I drop them when I’m in a wheelchair,” Blanchard said. “He can press elevator buttons, he can give a cashier my credit card, he can take money out of the ATM for me, he can open the dryer. He’s just amazing.” Canine Support Teams spend months preparing dogs for their human companions, and the process is a worthwhile investment to people like Blanchard who have come to rely on the extra help. “I’m going to do whatever I can do to help whoever I can get a service dog because it changed my life so much that I want to make sure other people, especially veterans, get that chance, too,” Blanchard said.

experience that hooked her. “My 5 p.m. stress and fatigue dissipated as soon as I heard the music,� she recalled. “I quickly discovered that Zumba was so much more. I wanted to share this gift of joy.� Ponsaty knew she was qualified to teach Zumba because of the years she spent studying dance. “I won first place in the dance category of the National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts’ search for the country’s most artistic teenagers. Since I also achieved academic excellence, I was among 20 recipients (out of 8,000) of the Presidential Scholars of the Arts Medal.� This award opened new doors for Ponsaty that included a trip to the White House to meet President George H.W. Bush. This accomplishment also landed her on the Today’s Show and in People Magazine in 1989, plus an opportunity to perform at the Kennedy Center and the Lincoln Center in New York. Zumba was also a natural fit for her. “I grew up in the Caribbean where everyone danced; I mean everyone,� she said.

It’s truly time to make more time!
Let Inga tell you ... I’ve spent considerable time over the years pondering the mysteries of the universe, but the one I truly can’t solve is why it takes four La Jolla women 80 e-mails to find a mutually-agreed upon date for lunch. Of course, that also applies to movie groups, book clubs, bridge dates, and pretty much any activity where more than three women are attempting to congregate. I know there are digital applications where everyone can post her available dates. But it doesn’t matter. By the time everyone does, someone is already not available. How is it that we can all be this busy? A friend of mine belongs to a theoretically “weekly” bridge foursome that only ends up meeting about 10 times a year. Hoping to improve that, they enacted a policy about requir-
ing a replacement to be provided should one not be able to attend. That lasted until four subs showed up to play. Now, I’ve never belonged to either a bridge club (can’t count cards to save my life) or a book club, but I have belonged to a number of movie groups. One that I belonged to had eight members. Deciding on a movie was complicated enough, so to keep the logistics down, we decided we would always meet on the second Thursday of the month. We saw lots of movies over time, but the one date on which we never saw one was the second Thursday of the month. Because as soon as the long-suffering movie group organizer sent out a query as to what we wanted to see, someone invariably responded that she wouldn’t be available on that night but would be available on these nights … and then we were off and running. Eighty emails to find a new date would have been optimistic. The organizer of that group, who valiantly hung in there for years and for whom I have nothing but admira-
tion, is now rumored to be in a home for the organizationally frustrated, sipping umbrella drinks on a bucolic lawn and being tended by white-coated professionals. Because even when we finally agreed upon a new date (which curiously always seemed to be a Monday even though we’d all decided earlier that we shouldn’t meet on Mondays since it was a bad day for everyone), we had to pick a movie. (A corollary of the 80 E-mails to Find a Date rule seems to be 40 E-mails to Agree on Anything Else.) Now, these were women who liked movies (and hence why they joined such a group) and some of them belonged to film societies as well. So we couldn’t see any of the film society picks or any movies that were reserved to see with a husband, or even that anyone had already seen with someone else. One of our members would only see “important” movies, defined as being well reviewed by the New York Times film critic and thus having sociallyredeeming value. I myself am a “fluffy” movie person (think “Herbie: Fully Loaded”)
but movie groups are not generally fluffy movie crowds. In fact, we did not see movies; we saw “films.” The end result was that our selections were often three-hour black-and-white graphically violent war dramas in Hungarian with subtitles depicting (way too successfully, in my view) the misery of the human condition. But no one had already seen it. (I think that statement may apply globally.) I watched many of these with my jacket over my head. However, I totally adored the other women in the group and we always had dinner afterwards, often with enough wine to blot out memories of the movie, which usually
caused me screaming nightmares for weeks afterward. I would also mention that the person who threw out the first volley about changing the date usually cancelled at the last minute. And don’t even ask how many e-mails it took to decide where to go to dinner. But getting back to my topic (and somewhere back there, I think I had one): What is it that we’re all doing that scheduling anything is so impossible? For most of my friends, our carpool days are over, but we seem to have filled that time with endless other activities. I have to say that one of my favorite excuses for being unavailable came a few months
ago from a long-time extremely dear friend who had volunteered to make the communion wafers for church, a full day affair. (Well, at least that way you know they didn’t come from China.) Even her son said, “So mom, is holycommunionwafers.com out of the question?” That one gets a pass for pure originality. But otherwise, I’m kind of hoping that the pendulum can swing the other way on this frantic over-scheduling of our lives. Because this 80 e-mails thing? We have better things to do with our time. — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life every other week in The Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

‘Our Town’ reminds audiences that life is short … and precious If you go
Let’s Review
By diana Saenger
Often in plays that rely on narration to explain or detail the story, something gets lost. In Cygnet Theatre’s production of Thorton Wilder’s American classic, “Our Town,” the Stage Manager (Sylvia M’Lafi Thompson) alerts the audience right off that Wilder intended for this play to be bare bones and without props or a stage setting. She does this with some humor as she points in different directions explaining where everything is in 1901 Grover’s Corners, New Hampshire, and then states that the two tables and chairs in view are there just for those who think there has to be some scenery. Thompson eloquently de-

Under the guidance of Cygnet’s artistic director, Sean Murray, the production doesn’t miss a beat in fulfilling the playwright’s intention of making this an Everyman reflection of life. Most of the play revolves around the families Gibbs and Webb, who are neigh-

bors. Using those tables as props, we see Mrs. Gibbs (Robin Christ) and Mrs. Webb (Yolanda Franklin) as they pantomime making meals for their families. The Gibbs’ son George (Francis Gercke) is infatuated with the Webb’s daughter Emily (Jo Anne Glover). As we watch the romance between George and Emily bloom in Act One and the marriage take place in Act
Two, we realize much about the town’s inhabitants through our imaginations as storyteller Thompson brings each person “to life.” Although we never see Dr. Gibbs treating a patient, we believe he did. Mr. Webb (Keith Jefferson) is the editor/publisher of the Grover’s Corners Sentinel, and although he never physically sets tiles, we know he printed that paper
for years. We believe Mrs. Soames (Sherri Allen) is a gossip; Professor Willard (Jim Chovick) knows the town history; Simon Stimson (Tom Stephenson) has problems; and Howie Newsome (Eddie Yaroch) loves his job as the milkman. Murray has elicited strong performances from his cast members — whether their part is short or long. When
George first appears on stage as a baseball-loving geek, Gercke portrays him perfectly. He’s just as anxious on his wedding day when sitting at the Webb kitchen table talking to Mr. Webb and unable to control his twitching fingers. Glover nails Emily from her timid attraction to George through her lastminute jittery fears at getting married. Wilder’s Final Act, with the deceased sitting in chairs in a graveyard, is the most poignant. We are told that everybody in their bones knows that something is eternal, and that the dead spend their time waiting for this eternal part of themselves to emerge. George loses Emily in childbirth and as the townsfolk grieve over her casket, Emily elects to go back and relive one more day of her life. This is Wilder’s attempt to show the audience that life is about more than its highs and lows, and that each day should be thoroughly embraced. No one will leave this excellent production without reflecting on those sentiments.

Science Center exhibit explores identity Find out what makes you tick during a visit to “Identity: An Exhibition of You” on display through Sept. 25 at the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center in Balboa Park. “Identity” explores the physical, psychological and social elements in life that make people who they are. Among the interactive components: compare fingerprints, determine if you are an introvert or extrovert, and view the differences between male and female brains. “We’ve hosted traveling museum exhibitions for more than 10 years, and are especially excited to launch the ‘Identity’ exhibition here in San Diego,” said Paul
Siboroski, exhibits director at the science center. “It features some of the latest scientific research on the topic of identity, and it’s being presented in an experience the whole family can take part in. Visitors will find that this is a very entertaining way to explore the science behind various concepts of individuality.” ‘Identity’ was developed by The Franklin Institute for the Science Museum Exhibit Collaborative. Content was developed in partnership with several scientific community leaders. For hours, admission and exhibit details, call (619) 238-1233 or visit rhfleet.org.

Try these defensive food maneuvers for a safe (and delicious) 4th of July Patriotic Potato Salad Kitchen Shrink By Catharine L. Kaufman America’s 235th anniversary of its split from Great Britain has swelled to become the nation’s largest secular shindig. Celebrations show off with rock-star pyrotechnics, machismo-grilling skills, puerile face-stuffing contests, and a smorgasbord of American eats from pork butts to peanut butter cookies. Instead of celebrating Independence Day by charring bovine at a backyard barbecue, here’s a new game plan that might include whipping up some portable picnic foods (sans the mayo and other perishables) and heading to the beach or backyard to go AWOL. Don’t be disarmed by an untraditional Fourth menu.
Navajo Peach Crisp
• 2 pounds of red, white and blue potatoes (fingerlings, baby creamers or other waxy varieties) • 1/2 red onion, diced • 1/3 cup black olives, sliced • 1/2 red pepper, diced • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil • 1/4 cup champagne vinegar • 1 teaspoon spicy mustard • Sea salt, cumin and cayenne pepper to taste n Method: Boil the potatoes in their jackets until soft but firm. Cool. Cut into bite-size pieces. In a large bowl, combine the spuds and veggies. In another bowl whisk the oil, vinegar, mustard and spices. Toss a desired amount of the dressing into the potato mixture, blend well. Refrigerate. Safe to deploy outdoors for several hours. Keep things simple with an assortment of sandwiches, salads and chilled summer soups — smoky gazpacho, watermelon basil, cilantro avocado, blueberry banana, icy lemon or minty Georgia peach — to provide tasty replenishment at land or sea.
• 6 large, ripe peaches, peeled, sliced • 1/4 cup cane sugar • 3/4 cup brown sugar • 3/4 cup unbleached flour • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon • 1/4 teaspoon salt • 1/2 cup unsalted butter • 2 tablespoons walnuts or pecans, chopped • A few drops almond extract
n Method: Preheat oven to 375° F. In a 2-quart baking dish toss the peaches with cane sugar, cinnamon and almond extract. In a separate bowl, combine flour, brown sugar and salt. Crumble butter into coarse chunks and add to the flour/sugar. Sprinkle mixture over the peaches and top with nuts. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown. If near the homefront, serve with tri-colored frozen treats – strawberry, vanilla bean and blueberry or other funky blue hue — sorbets, gelatos, soy, rice or coconut milks.
Have plenty of common supplies on hand — toppings, condiments, and patriotic red, white and blue potato and pasta salads and coleslaw with vinaigrette bases. My grandma’s classified recipe for stuffed red pepper slaw pairs well with a
The fastest way to sell your home is the local newspaper... NOT the Internet, Facts and research says Home-Selling the La Jolla Light: 78% of the “home buyer pool” is local and successful agents use papers to attract the best leads— while the Internet is best used in a “support” role The biggest problem with listing your home on the internet is this...the internet is huge! It would take hours to find all the available listings of homes for sale in this town—if you could even find them all...which you can’t. This is no doubt why Borrell Associates, the nationally known research firm reports that 66% of Americans rely on their local newspaper to buy and sell their homes, compared with only 20% using the internet. The biggest reason that a paper like the La Jolla Light is such a powerful lead generating tool for agents, is the paper’s long-term credibility with readers. When your home is listed or shown in this paper, it benefits from the paper’s thorough reporting and “believability”.
✔ 70% - 80% of home-buyers, buy locally. ✔ The La Jolla Light is delivered by the Postal Service ... to each resident’s home. ✔ Those most likely to purchase your home read The Light. ✔ Each week The Light features HOMES SOLD in 92037 and their actual price. ✔ The Light and it’s sister publications, reaches 9 of the 10 wealthiest zip codes in San Diego. ✔ These publications reach 200,000 “qualified” home buyers—every week. ✔ Serious home buyers are reading these publications to find “prestigious” homes & estates, like yours. ✔ The top agents in La Jolla advertise in The Light, because it sells homes. Ask your agent if they are using the La Jolla Light and sister publications. If not, have your agent call the La Jolla Light at 858-875-5945 and ask for Claire to get your home sold faster.
variety of hero and submarine sandwiches on assorted baguettes stuffed with turkey bacon, grilled chicken breasts, and nightshades such as Portobellos, marinated eggplant, red onions, technicolor pepper slices, and heirloom tomatoes.
For the sweet-tooths, try jam or bananas and nut butter sandwiches, like almond, walnut, macadamia or cashew. n Here are a few safe-food strategies for deployment: 1. Keep hot foods hot and cold ones cold to avoid the
formation of airborne bugs. 2. Never let different food groups share cutting surfaces, knives, utensils or dish towels to avoid cross-contamination. Wash hands obsessively, especially after handling raw eggs, chicken or meat. 3. The only food that should be served pink is watermelon. Meat, fish, fowl and mushrooms need to be cooked-through, but not incinerated. Burnt offerings can be carcinogenic, including “jerk” and “blackened Cajun.” 4. Refrigerate leftovers in airtight containers right after you’ve finished eating. 5. Mustard, barbecue sauce and ketchup are safe, heat-forgiving condiments, while milk or egg-based ones (like mayo) are not. n My patriotic contribution includes two recipes (above, left) with an explosion of flavors so divine your taste buds will surely salute them.
