Sewage leak causes 3-day WindanSea Beach closure BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN An estimated 1,350 gallons of sewage spilled from the Fern Glen Pump Station on Thursday, April 20, causing San Diego County health officials to close the north side of WindanSea Beach (from Nautilus Street to Marine Street) from the afternoons of April 20 to April 23. The cause of the leak, according to City of San Diego public information officer Alma Rife, was a deteriorated “rubber gasket” on the pump station’s piping. “Crews replaced the rubber gasket also known as a connection fitting,” she explained. The Fern Glen station pumps sewage from the surrounding area. As the City’s website reads, “Most of the wastewater collection in San Diego relies on gravity for the flow of wastewater through sewers to a treatment plant. In some instances, it is necessary to pump this wastewater uphill before it can return to a gravity flow.” Rife added that at the Fern Glen station “sewage is passed from the collection main from the surrounding uphill residential areas between Bonair Street to the South, Marine Street to the North, and Draper Street to the East.” The station has an operating volume of 800 gallons, and in case of total failure, it can store up to 37,700 gallons of sewage. “The station did not experience total failure in this case,” Rife clarified.

Torrey Pines cliff death raises safety concerns BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN The night of April 19, two young adults ventured onto the cliffs near the Torrey Pines Gliderport in La Jolla. Only one of them made it out. Near midnight, one of the victims called 911 to report that they had fallen off the cliff. Firefighters, lifeguards, police and a helicopter were sent to the location, 2800 Torrey Pines Scenic Drive. A female, who had fallen 50 to 75 feet below the cliff to the area lifeguards call “Hully Gully,” was rescued, and a male was found 50 feet further down the cliff and pronounced dead at the scene.
San Diego City Fire-Rescue Department public information officer Mónica Muñoz confirmed the incident took place at the Torrey Pines Gliderport. Seven years ago, in February 2010, La Jolla Light reported the death of an 18-year-old San Diego State University student found at “Hully Gully,” who appeared to have fallen off the cliff. At the time, an investigation was opened, and the autopsy determined she died of blunt-force injuries. Muñoz said lifeguards performed 85 cliff rescues in 2016, but the breakdown of how many took place SEE CLIFFS, A20

Beach closure signs inform beach-goers of the dangerous water conditions following a sewage leak at WindanSea Beach, April 20-23.
FROM SPILL, A1 Isaac Jenkins, a member of the City’s Public Utilities Department, told La Jolla Light the alarms went off early morning April 20 at the 102 Fern Glen Pump Station. “We responded to a call at 6 a.m., and we were there by 8 a.m., when we stopped the leak. We started to post signs, and the last one was posted by 10 a.m.,” he said. The next step was for San Diego County health officials in charge of monitoring beach water quality to come to the site and collect water samples and post more beach closure signs. The official beach closure was posted on the County’s website (sdbeachinfo.com) at 1 p.m. April 20. Several signs posted by City and County agents at various locations around the leak site read, “Danger, contaminated water, keep
out.” Keith Kezer, program coordinator of the Land & Water Quality division of the San Diego County Environmental Health Department told the Light three samples from the vicinity of the leak were analyzed. The sample from April 20 was “just above health standards,” he said. Another sample, taken April 21, showed acceptable levels of bacteria, but it was taken at low tide, when the ocean wasn’t reaching the contaminated area. “The approach we took here is similar to the other ones; we don’t just look at the sample and run with it, we want to make sure that we have a sample that’s representative of the conditions that could cause contamination,” Kezer explained. He said a third sample collected April 22 came out “clean,” and that prompted the lifting of the beach closure. La Jolla resident JD Neri said she was at
A 1,350-gallon sewage spill is reported at the Fern Glen sewer pump at WindanSea Beach.
WindanSea beach April 20 (the day of the leak) when she noticed something was wrong with the water. “The water looked really dirty and there was a film around the waves, so it didn’t look that inviting,” she explained. On April 21, Neri went back to the beach, and this time she said she was “hanging out” really close to the pump station. “I didn’t go in (the water) that day, but a couple of my friends did, and they said the day after, they were feeling kind of sick, but nothing too serious.” For Neri, “Thursday was the worst day, and then Friday and Saturday, you could still kind of see the brown zone.” The designated area for the closure extended 2,000 feet from Nautilus Street to Marine Street. Kezer said that was a “good, cautious” area to be secured. The most popular surfing reef (off The Shack and
FEATURED HOMES IN MT. LA JOLLA
Bonair Street), roughly 300 hundred feet south of Nautilus Street and 0.3 miles south of the Fern Glen sewer pump, remained open. For Jim Neri, local surfer and JD’s father, the extent of the beach closure raised some doubts. He said some of his friends went in the water that weekend, not knowing about the sewage leak. “There was a northwest swell, with a combination of southwest swell, that means the water was being pushed to the south,” he said. “So once the pollution got out of the pump station (it was going south toward the reef), but there was enough wave energy that it should have been diluted fairly rapidly.” Kezer added that beach closure signs were being removed, presumably by people. “We were doing two trips a day putting signs back up,” he stated.

Traffic board hears requests for two parking changes BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON Two issues over adjusting parking in La Jolla to better accommodate those who live nearby came before La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation (LJT&T) advisory group meeting April 19 at La Jolla Rec Center. The first was a request for a blue-painted handicapped parking space on Camino del Oro in front of the apartment building at 2120 Vallecitos in La Jolla Shores, and the other was a request to establish a legal three-minute Passenger Loading Zone in front of the Clinton Manor condos at 7550 Eads Ave. in The Village. The board did not vote on either, but will continue discussions at a future meeting. Mercedes Lafond of La Jolla Shores told the board that after taking a fall in an area park, she’s had difficulty walking and that’s why she was requesting a disabled person’s parking space be installed near her apartment. “I’m not only asking for me, but asking for everyone who lives in The Shores,” she said. “I know the space would be first-come first-served. “There is no handicapped parking in that area. I have a designated underground parking space in my building, but the only elevator is on the other side of the building, so I still have to walk

limitation (in what was noted as an area where parking is at a premium), several board members recommended reaching out to the building’s homeowners association (HOA) and other resources to resolve the issue.

and her injury. There are legal options … I’ve seen buildings install an elevator where there wasn’t one to accommodate ADA issues,” he said. Lafond cited personality issues as why she was reluctant to deal with the HOA, but said she would do more research and present again at a future meeting. The second parking issue, an identified “strange situation,”
involved a Passenger Loading Zone fronting The Clinton Manor on Eads Avenue. LJT&T chair Dave Abrams said the City denies installing the space, but after it was anonymously reported on the San Diego Get It Done app, the City would like to reconfigure it. The parking spaces on that street are angled, yet the White Zone is parallel to the street. “The City (said it) wouldn’t put a parallel space between angled spaces,” Abrams said. “So the fact of the matter is it’s an illegal space.” Because the City “isn’t going to leave it as is,” Abrams said the offers are to: convert the space into two, two-hour parking spots in line with the rest of the street, convert one to two-hour parking and one to a Loading Zone, or convert both spaces to angled Loading Zones. Speaking on behalf of residents wishing to keep as large a Loading Zone as possible, Bob Williams and Debbie Hill-Williams said several of the building’s residents are older and rely on others to drive them places or deliver groceries. “We have someone in a wheelchair and others who use walkers, and for a taxi or other type of driver to pick them up at the curb would certainly be advantageous,” he said.

Vikings surf team wins championship
FROM TRAFFIC, A6 Hill-Williams added, “Large trucks park there to make deliveries and my concern is if we lose that space, trucks will double park on the street. People already speed on that street and if they can’t see around a truck, someone could be hit trying to cross the street.” However, they could not confirm whether residents would want two spaces to be Loading Zones (the current space is large enough for one car/truck). One meeting attendee noted that with a white Passenger Loading Zone, the driver must stay in the vehicle, which would not allow for food deliveries. Further, Abrams said the building may not qualify for a Passenger Loading Zone because of the number of units. According to City guidelines, a property must meet one of the following to qualify: be a hotel; be a hotel or apartment with 50 separate living units (the building in question has 40 units); be a commercial building of more than 50,000 square feet; be a place of public assembly; be a hospital or convalescent home.

The ‘strange’ Loading Zone in front of 7550 Eads Ave. that is parallel to the street, while the parking spaces are angled. Wanting more information, including whether residents would prefer an alternative, such as a 15-minute short-term parking space, Williams and Hill-Williams requested the item be tabled a future date.

The Avenida de la Playa stormwater drain, which could be seen partially filled with sand earlier this year, appears empty April 18.
MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN
Constructions crews create a sand buffer at the Avenida de la Playa storm drain in La Jolla Shores.
May 29 deadline nears on Avenida de la Playa project As the Memorial Day deadline for the completion of the Avenida de la Playa stormwater project approaches, crews have reached the beach side in La Jolla Shores. In January 2016, only a few months after construction was originally deemed complete, a sinkhole appeared close to the beach when a culvert box exploded during an El Niño storm event. Earlier this year, construction resumed to fix the stormwater drain. City of San Diego public information officer Alec Phillipp told La Jolla Light construction will be completed by May 29, “assuming the weather cooperates.”—María José Durán

La Jolla ‘medium priority’ on City bike lane plan DecoBikes could be needed to bridge travel gaps BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN On a scale of “medium,” “high” or “higher,” two La Jolla bike lanes among the 90 projects in the San Diego Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) Strategic Implementation Plan, ranked “medium” in priority. A one-mile stretch of Villa La Jolla Drive (between its two intersections with Gilman Drive) and a 1.2-mile bike lane at La Jolla Village Drive (between Gilman Drive and Regents Road) are in the BAC plans for future construction. However, District 1 appointee to the BAC, Nicole Capretz, told La Jolla Light the projects aren’t funded yet. “The list of needs for funding and infrastructure is very long, so (the fact that) La Jolla didn’t make the highest priority just indicates how far we have to go.” She explained the two criteria that determined priority: 1) Projects in traditionally underserved communities and 2) Projects within Vision Zero corridors. (Vision Zero is a City initiative to reach zero traffic deaths by 2025) . Although it wasn’t identified in the first Vision Zero list from the non-profit Circulate San Diego, a City staff report released March 6 pinpointed the intersection of La Jolla Village Drive and I-5 (within the proposed bike lane), as one of the most dangerous pedestrian spots in the City. The BAC Strategic Implementation Plan was presented to the City Council’s Environment Committee, which endorsed it April 13. The plan focuses City resources to reach the self-imposed goals in Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s “Climate Action Plan,” which includes an increase to 6

percent more people biking to work in 2020, and 18 percent by 2035. “The Climate Action Plan calls for a significant shift in the number of people who take public transportation and who bike to work, but funding (to support that) has not been identified, so the Bicycle Advisory Committee has some serious concerns about that,” said Capretz, who’s also author of the City-endorsed Climate Action Plan. To achieve its goals, the 32-point implementation plan calls for the creation of a managerial figure within the City who dedicates 100 percent of his/her time to push for the advancement of the bike plan. Andrew Hanshaw, Mayoral appointee to the BAC said, “We made the recommendation to have a Bike Czar, someone beyond a traffic engineer,

A car passes a bicyclist riding on a non-designated road in La Jolla. someone to focus specifically on infrastructure … a leader that pushes the City plans forward. Not having someone solely dedicated to bikes doesn’t move things quick enough.” Another recommendation requires the City to up its outreach policies with tasks such as bicyclist education for all fourth-graders in the San Diego Unified School District and hiring staff to coordinate safe biking routes to schools. Proposed initiatives also include incentivising bike parking, boosting police enforcement of bicyclist protections and financing initiatives to get employees to their worksites by bike. “It really gets down to increasing ridership, having a healthier San Diego community and providing safe bicycling networks,” said Hanshaw, adding that in the meantime, BAC proposals help achieve another one of the City’s ambitious goals, the Vision Zero plan. The Strategic Implementation Plan will be back before the City Council Environment Committee in July with modifications, and eventually move to the full Council. “The City has set a high bar for ridership with the Climate Action Plan, and this is a strong pull to get them there,” Hanshaw said.
DecoBike
When asked where La Jolla sits in future City bike and transportation plans, Hanshaw said he would recommend installing a bike-sharing program in town by the time the Mid-Coast Trolley extension provides service to UCSD. “Bikes at our transit connections are going to be really key,” he said. “I know there’s been an issue and I hope the City is going to continue to do outreach and work with the community to eventually locate DecoBike stations.” But Capretz, disagreed with him. “If there is enough demand for a shuttle (from the Trolley station) the City should provide a shuttle for people working in La Jolla Village. That’s something that must be looked at and evaluated, for sure. That seems more viable than bike-sharing in La Jolla, given the hills and the terrain,” she opined. For the past two years, La Jolla community planning groups have turned thumbs down on proposals to install DecoBike kiosks in town, arguing that parking spaces would be lost, advertisements would pop up in public spaces, and other beach communities reported negative experiences with the bike-sharing company.

CRIME & PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS Man arrested after road rage incident A driver has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon following a road rage incident during which he tipped over a San Diego Police Department parking enforcement vehicle with his car. Media relations officer Billy Hernandez said at 12:06 p.m. Wednesday, April 19 near the intersection of Prospect Street at Eads Avenue, a parking enforcement officer issued a ticket to a man for parking in a loading zone. After the ticket was written, the man “struck the parking enforcement officer in the rear with his red Saab convertible. ... and the parking enforcement officer sustained minor injuries,” Hernandez told La Jolla Light. The man was located several blocks away and taken into custody.
Resident reports attempted car theft A Bird Rock resident posted on nextdoor.com that an attempted burglar tried to steal the resident’s new Toyota Prius on April 20.

Dr. Alicia Kennedy Advises:
‘Maintain optimum health with regular dental check-ups’ FROM PR REPORTS r. Alicia Kennedy, a long-time member of the La Jolla dental community, continues to emphasize the direct relationship between positive dental health and overall physical well-being. She cautions that there is an entire body connected to your teeth and, with that in mind, it is vital to maintain a regular schedule of dental check-ups. She also suggests that a primary focus of modern dentistry is concerned with whole body health and not merely with the treatment of cavities. Dr. Kennedy graduated from the University of Warsaw School of Dentistry, the UCLA School of Dentistry, and has had many years of experience with the prestigious Seattle Institute for Advanced Dental Education. With all this training, she has
D
professional insight on the consequences and effects of dental treatment on the entire body. When a new patient visits Dr. Kennedy, she and her educated staff take the time to listen carefully to a patient’s concerns, answer any questions, and come to understand their needs. Patients then receive a thorough evaluation of their oral health, after which, Dr. Kennedy will discuss how a patient’s oral health is affecting their whole body and vice-versa. Dr. Kennedy is a strong believer in using natural methods to treat patients. She uses only gold (a composite of gold and high quality precious metals in her fillings) and takes a similar approach with her crowns. In doing so, she alleviates concerns about allergies or gum inflammation. Dr. Kennedy also insists that
COURTESY
Dr. Alicia Kennedy, DDS healthy gums are vital to optimum health. She notes that gum disease has been linked to heart disease, cancer, diabetes
and other adverse medical conditions. She suggests that risk factors such as smoking, previous illnesses, hormonal changes and
certain medical conditions can contribute to the problem. She also cautions that the longer plaque and tartar are on the teeth, the more harmful they become. This causes gingivitis, a mild form of gum disease that can best be removed with regular cleaning by a dental hygienist. Perhaps, most of all, Dr. Kennedy believes that regular dental check-ups are extremely important for maintaining excellent well-being and vitality. Once again, she emphasizes the direct relationship between good dental health and a sound, well-functioning physical body. The offices of Dr. Alicia K. Kennedy, DDS, are open 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday-Thursday at 7334 Girard Ave., Suite 101.

La Jolla Louvre: New gallery, new vibe! BY DAVID L. CODDON ou’re setting the bar high when you call your art gallery La Jolla Louvre. But that’s not how Myles and Shanna Tweedy came to name their gallery on Girard Avenue that opened in March. “Shanna and I love to travel,” explained Myles, an officer in the Marine Corps. “One of the last places we visited was France, and we’ve come to love it beyond any other. Each summer we would go there and we’d rent an apartment right across from the Louvre. We’d spend afternoons having picnics with our family in the Louvre gardens. (The gallery name) shows our love for Paris.” But in spite of the name, the gallery is not evocative of Paris at all, but of the surf culture that is a signature of Southern California life. The Tweedys’ 1,900-square-foot space is all about two artists’ work: Shanna’s custom-painted surfboards; and the surf, beach-culture and marine-life art of Huntington Beach-based Josh Serafin, whose distinctive images are

created by applying oil paint to tempered glass. “Photos cannot do his work justice,” said Myles. “What Josh does is an art form that nobody does. It’s super vibrant and powerful, and the colors burst out at you because it’s oil on glass. Anyone who walks by the gallery says ‘I’ve never seen anything like this.’” Serafin’s originals range from $2,000 to $15,000 in price, though his limited-edition acrylics can be purchased at the gallery for as little as $150, Myles said. As for Shanna’s surfboard art, it all began with a commission she did in 2011 for one of her husband’s bosses, a Marine Corps colonel. She’s been doing surfboard painting primarily on a commission basis ever since. “It’s a very easy process,” said Shanna, who will paint your board for you or purchase one as part of the commission, depending on the client. “I use acrylic and I also use inks. When I’m done with the final product I take a clear spray paint and I spray

however, choosing to display their surfboard art in their homes. The price for commissioning Shanna to paint a board depends, Myles said, on “the cost of the board plus the cost of the art. If you bring in your surfboard, it would typically be about a hundred dollars a foot.” Although La Jolla Louvre has only been open a month or so, the feedback from locals and tourists alike has encouraged the Tweedys about the gallery’s future. “I’m confident that the longer we’re here, the better,” Myles said. “Over time, as people become more familiar with the brand and the gallery, it’ll become a staple of the community.” La Jolla Louvre, 7629 Girard Ave., is open 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday-Saturday and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

T
orrey Pines Elementary School introduced more engineering-related activities to its 22nd annual Science Discovery Day event, April 19. In particular, students got to explore a helicopter interior after the chopper came in for a special landing on campus, and how drones and other flying machines work. Discovery Day brought parents employed in various fields together with volunteers who introduced scientific concepts to the students through age-appropriate activities.

FROM CLIFFS, A1 at the Torrey Pines area wasn’t available as of the Light’s press deadline. Lifeguard Sgt. and Teamsters Union 911 steward Ed Harris calculates that 70 percent of citywide cliff rescues, happen at the La Jolla location. In his words, “We have made 300 rescues in the past 6 years, and most of them have been at the Black’s Beach area (Torrey Pines Gliderport), and there has been no improvement to the signage there. One of these areas is the ‘border field,’ where we go back there again and again because it has the illusion of being a trail (when it’s not). So, you have to ask, why isn’t the City adding warning signs?” City communications officer Tim Graham said there are nine signs in the area with “varying degrees of warning from ‘Stay Away’ to ‘No Public Access.’ ” The Light visited the area April 24 and on the bluff top adjacent to the Gliderport to the south (before the access trail to Black’s Beach) found visitors largely ignoring the “Danger; sheer unstable cliffs; stay back” signs and roped-off areas. Two of the trespassers, who wished to remain anonymous, answered the question, “Why did you ignore the sign?” responding, “To get closer to the edge ... some people don’t know their limits and then they lose their balance.” His

‘Danger’ signs don’t stop this beach-goer from walking down the bluffs at Torrey Pines Gliderport April 24. partner said, “I saw other people doing it.” Daniel Keshyap, visiting the Gliderport from Germany, said decided to stay within the designated zone. When asked about the trespassers, he replied, “How do you stop them? Putting up barricades higher than (what’s
already there) would ruin it.” Angie Preisendorfer, president of La Jolla Shores Business Association and a lifelong La Jollan offered her opinion on the dangerous situation. “Everybody ignores the signs down there because they want to get down to Black’s Beach. There are several
trails and a road, but people want to take a shortcut, so at the Ho Chi Minh Trail they take a wrong turn and need to be rescued. It’s beautiful and dangerous,” she said. Harris added that most cliff rescues in the area happen between Indian Canyon Trail (half mile north of the Gliderport) and Box
Canyon (half mile south of the Gliderport). The Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, approximately 4 miles north of the Gliderport, features a similar network of cliffs and trails, but less rescues take place in that area. Peter Jensen, president of the non-profit Torrey Pines Association that raises funds for the Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, noted that the state park is a “tighter ship. That’s one of the reasons why people don’t fall there. It closes at sunset, it’s a long walk to get up top in the middle of the night compared to the traditional ‘Let’s get wild!’ atmosphere at the Gliderport with some of the activities that happen over there.” For Jensen, education may be a way to address the issue. “I don’t know if the university (UC San Diego) can do more to make these 18-year-olds understand that cliffs are dangerous and the ocean is dangerous,” he opined. Ingo Renner, president of the Torrey Pines Docent Society, is part of the volunteer group trying to make sure people stay on the designated trails at the state park. “People used to ignore the signage, but we put in these rods with rope, and ever since, people are really staying on the trails; it’s done a tremendous job,” he said, adding that there are many regulations at the Reserve because “it’s the last remaining Southern California natural chaparral habitat.”

A man asks for money on the afternoon of April 20 on Villa La Jolla Drive.
Panhandlers, sadly, put their lives in jeopardy I just read the letter in the April 20 issue, concerning “panhandlers” on corners and street medians. My take on the situation is a little different than the writer’s. I am far less concerned about the interference with the quality-of-life of the elite La Jollans than the potential danger to the homeless individuals. I have found these people innocuous and non-aggressive. All my adult life has been devoted to health issues of individuals. I am quite concerned that a strong breeze or a misstep on a curb could lead to a very dangerous accident involving these people. It could result in serious injury or even death. I have seen men, women and even children endangering their lives. Somehow I think nothing will be done until a disastrous result occurs.
In some regards I agree with the previous writer. Please, San Diego Police Department and City Council intervene! David Marsh, M.D.
Where’s our compassion for people in need? This letter comes in response to the letter in the April 20 issue, titled “Police should move panhandlers out of town.” That letter is a perfect example of people with a self-centered attitude who are unable to understand that everyone isn’t like them and that some people may fall onto hard times and need help instead of criticism. Poor people and homeless people do not need to be apprehended by police, but need to be helped. There are many worthwhile charities and facilities that assist people who are in need. The world would be a better place (and so

would San Diego and La Jolla) if more people would donate to such charities and facilities as the San Diego Rescue Mission, Father Joe’s Villages, The Salvation Army, Interfaith Shelter Network, the San Diego Food Bank, etc., etc., etc. — instead of complaining about how “bad” these poor and homeless people are. What happened to compassion and caring and “The Golden Rule”? Linda Pequegnat

Cluster board learns of new state ‘dashboard’ for school success BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON The California Department of Education launched a new digital “dashboard” to measure school performance and growth. The website is live at caschooldashboard.org, but not yet fully data populated. At the La Jolla Cluster Association (LJCA) meeting April 20 at Muirlands Middle School, San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) director of research and development Ron Rode explained that the dashboard will be “re-released” in the fall with updated information. The dashboard features 10 indicators of school success, six of which are based on statewide data, and four are based on district (not school) data. The six statewide indicators are: high school graduation rate, academic performance, suspension rate, English learner progress, preparation for college/career and chronic absenteeism. The local indicators are: basic conditions (teacher qualifications, safe and clean buildings, and textbooks for all students), implementation of academic standards, school climate surveys and — for the first time — parent involvement and engagement. School and student group information is not available for local indicators, but for state indicators, one can see how an individual school measures up. “We measure school success based on a color scheme, with blue representing the highest performance level — blue is the best you can get like a blue ribbon at the fair — then green, yellow, orange and red,” Rode said. For factors that schools would hope to be low — suspension rate and chronic absence (missing more than 10 percent of school days) — the orientation would be flipped, so red and orange symbols are positive indicators. A school can also reach a higher color level if there are desired performance increases (such as graduation rate) or decreases (such as suspension rate). There are symbols for individual indicators and a colored graph for overall performance, including whether certain factors have increased or decreased. Rode noted there isn’t enough data yet to fill all the fields.

Sophia Arrendondo, program manager for the District’s LGBTQIA education and advocacy department discusses resources for schools with students who are on the LGBTQIA spectrum. students and parents to create schools and campuses that are safe for all students (via) school site resources and support. This community of students exists everywhere, in schools K-12, and their families do as well. “Most people know LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender, but then they get a little lost with the QIA,” she said, providing a rundown of what each letter represents: The Q is for queer/questioning, she said. “Some people don’t like the word ‘queer’ because it has been used
pejoratively, but it’s also one of those words that has been reclaimed. Some marginalized communities take language, reclaim it and take the power back.” I is for intersex, which describes someone whose sex characteristics are ambiguous. “That can be anatomical or internal, they could be intersex and not know it because their biological functions are not disrupted. It doesn’t necessarily manifest as androgyny. The derogatory term we never want to use is ‘hermaphrodite.’ That’s how they used to be referred to, but for some the identity is
internal (rather than external).” Lastly, A is for asexual, which she said is when a person does not have any physical or sexual attraction to anyone. “It’s not a new identity, it’s one that has been gaining a lot of visibility. A lot of folks who identify as asexual feel like there is shame (associated with it) because we live in a culture where we’re told we are supposed to meet someone, fall in love, get married and so forth. But some folks don’t.” She concluded that “These are all real identities, these are not ‘phases.’ ” When it comes to training on campuses, Arrendondo said she can offer informative lectures at the Cluster level or with a school’s PTA, and tailor it to the grade level and what questions people have. “We also go over the difference between gender and sexual orientation because there is a difference. Sexual orientation comes from the heart, who you are attracted to; and gender identity comes from the brain, who we understand ourselves to be,” she added.

May means music and more at UCSD ArtPower BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT UC San Diego’s Art Power is making the merry month of May even merrier with some great music, performance and dance coming from near and far. Here are the Big Three, a trio of events to add to your May calendar. Miwa Matreyek Double Feature (May 3): LA-based animator/designer/performer Miwa Matreyek is not at all scared of her own shadow. In fact, she uses it in some of her multimedia pieces, integrating her shadow self, surreal images, meditative music and her own live performance. Her double feature includes “This World Made Itself,” a surreal history of the universe, and “Myth and Infrastructure,” in which her shadow travels through a dream-like fantasy world. Her work has won her Princess Grace Special Projects grants and a grant from Creative Capital. Check out the online TED talk that has brought her over 800,000 viewers, and then come see her in person. “She’s an astounding theater artist who’s touring around the globe now,” said ArtPower’s executive director Jordan Peimer. “Her work is so captivating and innovative, you say ‘I can’t believe I’ve never seen this before.’ ” Colleen (May 18): French musician/composer Colleen, aka Cecile Schott, has been making music for more than 25 years. She started out in high school with classical guitar lessons, added electric guitar and some Beatles influence, and finally moved on to develop her own original, gently compelling style. Now she draws audiences in with an Enya-esque voice and unusual instruments like a treble viola da gamba, modified music boxes and wind-chimes, while doubling the sounds with electronic effects pedals. Peimer calls her “unique, with a real dedication to her craft.” Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company “Play and Play” (May 25): The Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company began as a collaboration between Bill T. Jones and Arnie Zane, and continues on as a major force in dance-theater since Zane’s death in 1988.

U.S. Congress member (D-52nd District) Peters addresses citizens’ concerns at the meeting, promising to look into residents’ reports of increases in aircraft noise.
Peters tells La Jollans he will review plane noise issue Congress member holds town halls in San Diego last week BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN During a town hall meeting hosted by Congress member Scott Peters (D-District 52) at Clairemont High School, April 18, Bird Rock resident Beatriz Pardo, brought up the issue of increased airplane noise in different La Jolla neighborhoods. “We have a FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) problem, and I have petitions here that were signed by 300 La Jollans (against airport noise),” Pardo said. Peters thanked Pardo for her comments and said he would send Brian Elliott, one of his representatives, to a walk she was organizing at 6:15 a.m. Wednesday, April 26 to show area reps the levels of aircraft noise La Jollans are experiencing. Pardo told La Jolla Light, “We thought they should ‘hear’ what we are hearing and why we are complaining.”
Also on April 26, the Airport Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) meets at 4 p.m. in the UPSES Portuguese Hall, 2818 Avenida De Portugal. Elliott, who is also a member of that board, will be in attendance. The board member notes posted on ANAC’s website show that La Jolla is now the area where most households are complaining about airplane noise, with complaints logged from 85 residences in La Jolla, La Jolla Mesa, La Jolla Shores and Bird Rock. The Light will have meeting coverage in the May 4 issue.

At a second town hall meeting, April 19 at Congregation Beth Israel, 9001 Towne Centre Drive, Peters gave the audience insight on how President Donald Trump’s American Health Care Act (AHCA) was stopped in its tracks at the House Energy and Commerce Committee. “Democrats weren’t allowed to see the bill until the Monday before the Wednesday hearing,” he said. “In fact, if you wanted to see the bill you had to be a Republican and go into a secure room

It was 10 a.m. on a Wednesday (when the committee hearing started) and it finished at 1:30 p.m. the next afternoon,” Peters said, referring to the record 27-hour meeting where the bill was killed. As a distraction technique, Peters said Democrats made a motion to change the name of the bill, which gave them time to speak about it, then didn’t waive the reading of the 63-page act as usual. “Joe Kennedy (D-Massachusetts) was listening to the reading when he realized, ‘Mental health isn’t covered anymore!’ And he asked a question about that. “During the hearing, we started to see on our phones and on Twitter that people were beginning to react to it ... now hospitals are against it, Planned Parenthood, Catholic Charities … I got an e-mail forwarded to me from Blue Cross California, talking about SEE NOISE, A26

Sonia’s saga began as the daughter of an indomitable mother who carried Sonia and her sister alexandra through a chaotic Europe to refuge in Brooklyn, NY in the early 1930’s. Sonia and Robert met immediately prior to his distinguished service as a pilot in the Pacific theater. In his absence, Sonia held the family together refusing to accept an official notice that he may be missing in action. This faith remained for all 72 years of their marriage, enduring tragedy and
triumph. after his military service, Bob entered Yale Medical School, then early pediatric practice and a Yale professorship. He was asked to help establish the UCSD Medical School in the early 60’s. The family began a new life in La Jolla and became an integral
part of the community for over 60 years. Sonia returned to her own education becoming one of the earliest medical anthropologist and established the first menopause hotline, providing resources for women undergoing fundamental biological changes that society largely ignored. From her cherished Tertulia sisters, to close friends and relatives, travels around the world and the Robert & Sonia Hamburger Family Chamber Music Series at UCSD, the family enjoyed life to the fullest. Sonia was predeceased by her husband, Robert N. Hamburger, MD; and beloved daughters, Hilary, Debre and

Arthur Lee Estep
December 4, 1932 - April 6, 2017 LA JoLLA — Arthur Lee Estep, known to all as Lee, died at his residence in Carlsbad on Thursday, April 6, 2017. He was 84. A sailor, golfer, master storyteller and gifted trial attorney, Lee’s life story could only happen in America. Born December 4, 1932 in the deep ozarks of southern Missouri — Graverly Holler, to be exact — Lee was the youngest of six siblings. A child of hardworking farmers and raised in a close-knit southern missionary Baptist community, shoes were hard to come by, but hand-me-downs and moonshine were plentiful. only by sheer grit, a little luck, smarts, and extra-large shoulders, was he able to rise out of the hard life of the hill country, becoming the first in his family to go to college, thanks to a University of Missouri football scholarship. He graduated from Missouri in 1954 with a business degree, and from there joined up with the U.S. Marine Corps, serving as a first lieutenant and tank officer. Stationed at Camp Pendleton, he met a cute little blonde
named Jodi Hayes in Laguna Beach. When Lee decided to go back to Law School at the University of Missouri a few months into dating Jodi, he told her he was planning to return to Laguna Beach eventually, and the two should “keep in touch.” Jodi’s response: “Forget it, kid, if you leave without me. I will not wait for anyone.” Lee decided it was in his best interest to propose promptly, and a month later, on June 16, 1956, the two married. They headed off to Columbia, Mo that sweltering summer, and daughter Sallie was born the following May. Jodi soon suggested that one winter in Missouri was more than enough for any girl from Laguna Beach, so Lee finished up his law degree at the University of Arizona instead, graduating in 1959 then moving the family back to southern California, setting down roots in San Diego. Lee truly believed all people were created equal. Compassionate and understanding, he spent much of his adult life outside of his law
practice volunteering to help addicts find their way to sobriety, taking the homeless out to eat during lunchtime walks, and warning against the dangers of self-pity — preaching practicality and planning in the face of adverse circumstances. Those qualities carried over into his law practice, too, in which he served as a general practice trial attorney, calmly and methodically guiding his clients through difficult times in their lives. He represented defendants in 16 capital murder cases in his early years, including a death penalty case at the U.S. Supreme Court. Until retiring, he practiced law alongside his only daughter, Sallie Estep Warren, in a twostory historical home on Front Street in Banker’s Hill as a partner of Estep & Warren. In that office, he watched his beloved granddaughters, Christi and Tracy grow out of infancy, scramble up and down the building’s carpeted staircase and play in the boardroom and law library. Throughout his career, he served as a counselor
and advocate for troubled attorneys through the San Diego County Bar Association, awarded for “outstanding Service to the Legal Profession” in 1986. He also counseled troubled veterans through the Veteran’s Association, and served as president of the San Diego chapter of the American Board of Trial Advocates Lee’s retirement in the early 2000’s brought with it ample time to devote to his favorite pastimes: sailing at the San Diego Yacht Club; playing golf at the La Jolla Country Club, where he served as president, and at De Anza Country Club in Borrego Springs. He was predeceased by the love of his life, Jodi, to whom he was married to for 48 years. He is survived by his daughter, Sallie; son-in-law, Don; granddaughters, Christi and Tracy; and longtime companion Jane Percival, with whom he lived in Carlsbad and Borrego Springs in the later years of his life.

the damage it would do to the insurance partners. So that information started coming in through the course of the hearing. I didn’t like missing my sleep or my workout, but it was time we needed to let the bill percolate to the people, and actually as a tactic, is what killed it,” Peters said.
Partisanship
Peters expressed his frustrations with what he described as “one of the toughest things about Congress,” partisanship. “Politics is not standing in the corner and yelling at people who agree with you, it’s coming to the center of the room and trying to listen to the ones that don’t agree with you. We don’t see enough of that in Congress,” he lamented. He related how he’s been trying to initiate conversations with Republican colleagues. “Even if my party is not happy with me, that’s what we have to do to pass this heavy partisanship, rank our country first, our district second, and our party third,” he said. Peters also criticized President Trump’s frequent visits to his Florida resort, reporting that a fifth of his presidency has been spent at the luxury vacation spot, and he blamed Trump for a “lack of service.” He also criticized the President’s plan to build a border wall with Mexico, the cost of which, according to Peters, “could fund homeless programs for 20 years, and San Diego could use some of those.”

Running Blind
Technology helps blind man finish Boston Marathon La Jolla company is the eyes of those who can’t see BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN Legally blind marathon runner Erich Manser finished the Boston Marathon April 17 in 5:11:30, using technology developed by La Jolla-based company Aira. The advancement, a wearable device that can help the visually impaired in their daily lives, passed its first test in a competitive run. “Running a marathon using Aira technology was an extreme test, it’s not what the device is used for. I knew going in that the Boston Marathon has 30,000 runners in it, it’s kind of crowded, so we didn’t have a lot of expectations,” said 44-year-old Manser, adding that he usually uses two human guides for a running event, but in this case, he chose to use only one — “my second guide this year was Aira.” The technology uses the Google Glass, which incorporates a forward-looking camera and a phone connection to a staff person at a remote location, who can help the visually impaired person navigate everyday life. If the client needs help, he or she wearing the device, calls in, and a staffer directs them on how to move around the room, do their shopping at the grocery store or chose from a restaurant’s menu. The idea came when Aira’s CEO and co-founder Suman Kanuganti was experimenting with technology in 2015. “I’m a technologist by background, so when the Google Glass came out, there was this idea ... we did an experiment with my friend, who is blind and lives in Colorado. He put the glasses on and instead of talking on the phone, we used Google Hangout so I could see what he was looking at,” he said. “Soon enough, we created some prototypes and got in touch with some blind people in San Diego, who started trying it out.” Kanuganti said Aira has about 200 customers who pay a flat monthly fee and
Marathon runner Erich Manser, who usually runs with two guides, just used one and the help of La Jolla-based company Aira, to run the Boston Marathon, April 17.

Legally blind marathon runner, Erich Manser, wearing Aira technology, and his guide David Wei run the Boston Marathon, April 17. receive remote assistance from a network of certified agents. “For any activity that a blind person needs to do, he or she can call in, and a person sitting at a desk will see anything that the blind person sees (in real time) and also have info from Google Maps (and other spaces on the Web).” Him and Aira co-founder Yuja Chang met while they were in an MBA program at UC San Diego. “We were exploring ... what does it mean to provide information technology for blind people? I did a business plan to understand the industry and competitors, and that helped me eventually come up with a plan,” he said.
One of Aira’s first investors was now-deceased biotech entrepreneur Larry Bock, co-founder of San Diego’s gene sequencing company Illumina. Kanuganti said Bock was a big user of their technology in the initial phases, “He did a good start for the company all around.” Marathon runner Manser also got to know Aira very early on. He works on accessible technology at IBM and was at a conference in Orlando where the company’s technology was being demonstrated. Although legally blind, he still has some vision left, which he describes as “looking through a drinking straw that you cover with wax paper,” and
his use of Aira’s services differs from totally blind users. “I’ve gotten great value from it, especially if I run into a situation where I have to go to a customer location that’s not familiar or when I’m running late. Once, I didn’t know exactly where I was going and Jessica (one of Aira’s staff) pulled me out of a big wait for an appointment,” he explained. Another service helpful for Manser, he said, is their recently incorporated option to call a rideshare service. “There are somethings, for someone like me, that makes this difficult; like I’m not going to be able to tell the color of the rideshare car or the license plate, which is the information they give you. So I just have them call for me, and all I have to do is stand on the sidewalk and wait until they tell me it’s here.” For Kanuganti, a San Diego native, having their center of operations in La Jolla has been an advantage. “I have all things that I need here, there’s a good number of technology startups, but not as overwhelming as Silicon Valley. I’d like to think San Diego is an extension of Silicon Valley,” he said. —Learn more at aira.io
Abundant roadside flowers? It’s April in La Jolla!
I
’ve been away for a few weeks, and now returning in April, I’m so happy to be here to see the coastal flowers hitting their full stride. Although the peak of the desert flowers were a bit earlier in March, here along the coast, we still have lots in store. Alongside roadways, verges, sidewalks and hillsides, full color flowers bloom. There are carpets of ice plant, from bright
yellow to shiny pink, and fields and fields of tidytips and daisies. It’s an excellent time to hone wildflower identification skills; everywhere you look has a different species of plant or tree in bloom. —Kelly Stewart is a marine biologist with The Ocean Foundation who writes about the flora and fauna of La Jolla.

The iconic murals of the Ché Café on the UC San Diego campus in La Jolla, decorate what once were the barracks of Camp Matthews. PHOTOS BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN
‘Revolutionary’ space hits 50th year on UCSD campus BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN n 1966, three wooden barracks from Camp Matthews (a Marine Corps rifle training post near La Jolla), were moved on to the then-center of the UC San Diego campus. The school reportedly paid for the foundation, plumbing and construction work, and in January 1967 — 50 years ago —the first Student Center opened on campus, unnamed until March of that year when it became the “Coffee Hut.” “It was made into a greasy spoon, basically a coffee shop, which had all kinds of cultural activities and concerts going on, and then, of course, greasy food,” said Arnie Schoenberg, member of the Ché Café history committee. “In 1979, it was abandoned as a greasy spoon and then taken over by the student co-op movement. At that point, it became the Ché Café. So Ché could (represent) Cheap Healthy Eats, Coffee Hut Express, or just Che Guevara.” For many years, the Ché Café was a place for experimentation on campus. It fostered vegetarianism, a farm-to-table restaurant, and safe spaces for LGBTQ people. It was — and still is — a student-run center, where the profits are shared among the different co-ops on campus. In 1989, the student center was moved to the Price Center. “About the 1980s or ‘90s, a transition happened where (Ché Café) became more of a music venue and less of a restaurant, and then it became known as a punk venue. A lot of punk bands would stop off on their national tours to play at

Arnie Schoenberg, member of the Ché Café history committee
A student-run space, the Ché Café is often used to organize cutting-edge projects. the Ché Café, and that’s still going on today,” Schoenberg explained. A distinctive feature of the Ché Café are its mural-filled walls. Artists such as Víctor Ochoa (of the Chicano Park murals) and Gerardo Navarro painted some of the iconic walls of the old Camp Matthews barracks with colorful, meaningful works of art. Images of contemporary social activists from Malcolm X to Che Guevara cover the walls, making the small complex among eucalyptus trees a recognizable site on the otherwise monochrome campus.
However in 2013, campus officials proposed shutting down the Ché Café. Safety concerns were raised by the UCSD Fire Marshal in 2012, as they highlighted the reforms needed to bring the building up to date. In a 2013 report, the university calculated $1.5 million in expenses would be needed to maintain Ché Café for the next eight years. But in 2015, the Ché Café was placed on the Save Our Heritage Organisation’s (SOHO) Most Endangered List. Of the action, SOHO’s website reports: “The future of the building and its murals
had been critically threatened by an eviction notice served by the UCSD administration to the collective. The situation became so dire that students occupied the space 24 hours a day, even during summer break, to make sure the university didn't seize the building and tear it down for ‘safety concerns.’ ” A new lease agreement is being negotiated between the Ché Café Collective and UCSD. Raquel Calderón, a core member of the collective, is involved in the process. For Calderón, the co-op means more than just a college job. “The Ché is a really great opportunity to practice working with other SEE CAFÉ, B19

Kick age-accelerating foods to the curb
I
La Jolla Cultural Partners
recently lumbered in to my dentist’s office for an early morning appointment, a matcha green tea frappuccino in hand to jolt me into wakefulness. In an alarmed voice, the office manager advised me to discard the straw immediately, and never use one again. She then explained that the straw is a foe, an aging mechanism that encourages the notorious vertical lines or mouth wrinkles from the repetitive pursing motion as we imbibe our smoothies, cocktails, iced teas and coffees. The key to maintaining a smooth and firm complexion actually lies below the surface of the skin in the dermis where the structural protein known as collagen resides. In our youth, collagen is plump and abundant, but as we age our collagen cells lose their vibrancy and become scarcer. We are hit by a double whammy since we not only manufacture less precious collagen as the years progress, but also our bad eating habits destroy existing collagen. Along with the straw, I have compiled an A-(ge accelerating) List of foods that should also be eliminated, or at least consumed in moderation for maintaining both our health and youthful image.
No Sugar Coating: The worst culprits include refined cane sugars and high fructose corn syrup that have been linked to serious dental, mental and physical ailments and diseases. From a cosmetic perspective, simple sugars create free radicals that tamper with the structure of collagen. This causes a domino effect of premature aging, including wrinkles, loss of elasticity and bone density that contributes to a sagging jaw line. Sugar’s evil siblings like aspartame and other artificial sweeteners are just as damaging to collagen and the integrity of the skin. Best to use natural sweeteners, such as honey, stevia or maple syrup, or simply enjoy foods less sweet and more savory. The Booze Blues: Since alcohol tinkers with the functioning of our liver, toxins are not properly eliminated, causing collateral damage to the skin like acne, blotchiness and loss of collagen. Alcohol is also dehydrating, which can contribute to a drawn look and sallow complexion. Burnt Offerings: While you do not have to ban barbecue from your culinary repertoire, avoid blackened-style preparations and marinating in sweet, sticky sauces that burn easily. Also scrape away any charred spots whether on fish, chicken, meat
or vegetables since these pro-inflammatory hydrocarbons clobber collagen fibers (and have been linked to assorted cancers). Rubbing Salt in the Wound: Ordinary table salt you find in the shakers at roadside diners causes dehydration, which leads to that tired, droopy and even haggard look, along with puffiness around the eyes. Even though you may not cook with salt, it’s abundant in everything from cottage cheese to canned foods. So read labels judiciously, and swap out the white table salt for Pink Himalayan salt with a rich store of minerals, especially copper, iron, potassium, calcium and magnesium. This precious pink salt actually increases hydration, regulates water content both inside and outside of cells, and has also been attributed to ratcheting up libido. Dangerous Deli: Any way you slice it, deli meats and charcuterie from pastrami and corned beef to sausages and bacon are high in sulfites, preservatives and salt, which can trigger inflammatory responses causing puffiness and other signs of aging. Best to opt for leaner meats like organic chicken or turkey breast, or plant-based charcuterie, such as seitan nicknamed “wheat meat,” vegan bacon, or coconut jerky that produces a chewy carnivorous alternative, especially for those with gluten or soy sensitivities. Don’t Chew the Fat: Artery-clogging trans fatty monsters also trigger inflammation that not only damages collagen, but also makes the skin more sensitive to UV rays. So once again, read labels carefully, and avoid partially hydrogenated oils, including margarine, dairy creamers and fats that are generally solid at room temperature.
Anti-Aging Watermelon Salad ■ You’ll need: 1 seedless personal watermelon, sliced in bite-size chunks or balls; 2 heirloom tomatoes, sliced in chunks; 2 Persian cucumbers, sliced in coins, unpeeled; ½ red onion, thinly sliced; 4 ounces crumbled goat feta or fresh mozzarella (small ovals); 1 handful coarsely chopped basil, cilantro or mint. ■ For the dressing: 3 tablespoons virgin olive oil; juice from one Meyer lemon; 1 teaspoon honey; Himalayan Pink Salt or sea salt, and cracked black pepper to taste; ¼ teaspoon fresh grated ginger. ■ Method: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together dressing ingredients. Arrange vegetables and fruits on a platter. Sprinkle cheese and basil on top. Drizzle with dressing. – kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

LET’S REVIEW
Recycled art exhibits shine at California Center for the Arts BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT he R word — Recycling — has been a buzzword in the art world for more than a few years. Now California Center for the Arts, Escondido (CCAE) has opened a pair of recycled art exhibits that are well worth the trip. One is a national touring show, “Second Time Around: The Hubcap as Art,” and the other, “Reuse Recreate Reimagine,” features artists from both sides of the border and includes a wall of works by longtime La Jollan Becky Guttin. Curator of the 3Rs exhibition is Debby Kline — half of a dynamic art duo with her husband, Larry — who was called in to organize the show at the 11th hour, when the previous curator suddenly departed. No stranger to the museum, Debby had worked there in the mid-1990s, even doing a stint as Interim Director. Originally invited to be featured artists in the exhibition, the Klines were offered a whole gallery to display an expanded version of their 12-foot-tall “Alchemist and His Junks,” a testament to the age-old cycle of trash, first introduced in 2015 at HB Punto Gallery in

CALIFORNIA CENTER FOR THE ARTS, ESCONDIDO
CCAE’s attractive 12-acre campus, a regional arts center in downtown Escondido since 1994, includes two theaters, a conference center, art and dance studios and a 9,000-squarefoot museum whose first director was La Jollan Reesey Shaw. After several directors and the 2008 economic crisis, funding dried up, and there were only sporadic exhibitions, including two by La Jolla gallerist Mark Quint in 2009 and 2011. In 2014, Leah Goodwin, the museum’s original education director, came back as Director of Museum & Education. “I worked hard at solidifying the exhibition programs, connecting with the community, and building the next generation of artists, getting students involved in every exhibition,” she said. “Now we’re back on track, with a grant from the Parker Foundation and Lexus sponsoring the Hubcap Art show.” Coming July 8-Aug. 27: In a new collaboration with MCASD-La Jolla closed for expansion, CCAE will present an exhibit of California artists who have brightened the art scene over the last half-century, drawn from MCASD’s permanent collection.

Besides working on the new Alchemist installation and teaching art at Design Institute and UCSD Medical School, Debby managed to step into the curator’s role and assemble an eye-popping show in record time. For the Klines (San Diego Art Prize winners in 2013) this was not their first venture into artful recycling. Their 2012 “Dinner with the Klines” exhibition at the Athenaeum presented some of the clever pieces they’ve created out of odds and ends found on their table in restaurants.

‘Skeleton Crew’ presents stunning look at reality BY DIANA SAENGER he workplace often becomes a second home where employees share their lives, help each other through good and bad times and form strong bonds. Playwright Dominique Morisseau highlights this dynamic in her “Skeleton Crew,” now playing at The Old Globe Theatre in Balboa Park. Faye (Tonye Patano) is one of those workers whose daily routine at a Detroit auto factory rarely changes. She enters the breakroom and proceeds to turn on the lights, put her things in her locker, and get the coffee ready. With signs all over the room reading “No Smoking-Faye,” she ignores the loud noise coming from the factory and lights her cigarette. Co-worker Dez’s (Amari Cheatom) chirpy entrance doesn’t change Faye’s inert expression. He complains about the absence of heat in the room and mentions that she is not supposed to be smoking. Faye lashes back with several comments and a heart-broken rant about her status, insisting he should not bother her. A lively and obviously pregnant young Shanita (Rachel Nicks) arrives and goes through her morning routine. When she discovers someone has used her salad dressing, she reveals a discontented attitude; here’s yet another day of annoyances. The employees slowly come awake through conversations about what’s happening on the auto lines, a possible strike and everything that’s wrong with their jobs. Foreman Reggie (Brian Marable) makes his

(Jim Cox) entrance with a heater. His demeanor suggests a light in the darkness. He puts his things away, comments about the smoke in the room, and answers questions from the crew now arguing over who gets overtime. Barely making it, maybe sleeping in a cold car or afraid the plant will shut down, their retorts are worn on their sleeves. Dez is hot and cold with his opinions.

telling him to get real. When Reggie finally reveals that Human Resources will soon be sending out a notice that the plant will be shutting down, the crew asks questions Reggie doesn’t want to answer. Playwright Morisseau, born and raised in the Motor City, has an excellent cast carrying out this look at real life. The dialogue paints a vivid picture of what these workers are facing and feeling. Patano (Globe’s “The Last Goodbye,” Craig Noel Award winner for La Jolla Playhouse’s

“Ruined,” Heylia on “Weeds”) plays the role of Faye as a toughie, but with time it’s clear her bleak outlook might be more of a warning for her crew. At one point she says to Dez, “You can pretend you and me ain’t affected by the same things, except we both got battle scars. May work for you in the short-term, but in the long term, it kills.” Cheatom’s (“On the Levee,” “Dutch Masters,” “Django Unchained”) Dez is a man caught between worry and hope. He appears happy, likes to trifle with his co-workers as if all is good, but he seems to be hiding the same angst about his future as well. Marable (“Detroit ’67,” “The Mountaintop,” “The Citizen”) perfectly portrays Reggie, a good foreman who cares for his crew and wants them not to be worried, but behind that all-is-well-attitude, he knows their job is short-lived. Nicks (“The Good Negro,” “War,” “And I and Silence”) is a bright light as Shanita. Her life is far from perfect, but she faces every day with a it-is-what-it-is outlook. Delicia Turner Sonnenberg’s directing talent (and her role as founding Artistic Director of MOXIE Theatre), pays off in her very well done Old Globe debut. “Skeleton Crew” is an excellent reminder of what was and what may always be right around the corner. ■ IF YOU GO: “Skeleton Crew” plays through May 7 in Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre at The Old Globe complex, 1363 Old Globe Way in Balboa Park.

LET’S REVIEW
‘Travels with My Aunt’ is hilarious one-of-a-kind BY DIANA SAENGER f you like funny, offbeat stories, you won’t want to miss “Travels with My Aunt” at the North Coast Repertory Theatre. Four actors — James Saba, David
I
McBean, Richard Baird and Benjamin Cole — perform more than 20 roles sporting different identities, nationalities, ages and genders, and when the play opens, they are apparently waiting for a train.
Dressed in look-alike suits, they banter about their lives. At one moment, they take a turn that brings lots of laughter from the audience. Saba takes on the title role as Actor 1 — Henry Pulling, a retired bank manager. Throughout the performance, he excels in also being the wiggly, feisty-yet-informed Aunt Augusta. But then every once in a while, he becomes another character talking to Aunt Augusta. This may seem confusing since Aunt Augusta is now in an urn awaiting her funeral. Actor’s 1, 2, 3 and 4 participate in the funeral confusion and what happens to the urn. However, that’s trumped by the other characters they portray — Baird as a hunky African manservant, who regularly makes “jig-jig” with Augusta and plays all the characters with accents; Bean as CIA operative and all of the women and Henry;
Cole as the dog and onlooker. These characters travel the world to places like Paris, Istanbul and Paraguay, experiencing a whirlwind of excursions, and we learn that Henry still has secrets about his Aunt and himself, as he and his manservant get into some heated discussions. No matter what the characters are doing or plotting — or the confusion of who’s who — it’s the humor in Giles Havergal’s adaptation of Graham Greene’s novel that fills the evening with laughs. Marty Burnett’s Scenic Design and the North Coast Rep’s design team provide a wonderful window into this puzzling and distinctive production. ■ IF YOU GO: ‘Travels with My Aunt’ plays through May 14 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach.

Paintings, sculpture, jewelry, photography and textiles — each entry an original work of art created by club members — drew several hundred attendees to the event, who marveled at the creativity, color harmony and whimsy of the breathtakingly beautiful floral arrangements inspired by the art submitted. VGCLJ is a 501 (c)(3) organization founded in 1974 as a member of the National Garden Clubs, Inc. It has 425 members who support horticulture and sponsor civic projects such as the Schoolyard Garden Grants Program, Penny Pines California Reforestation, the Moores Cancer Center Healing Garden of Hope, Bouquets of Thanks for the Veterans Hospital, and the Jacaranda Tree Planting Projects.

Silent sound is all around at UCSD Calit2 Gallery LET’S REVIEW BY WILL BOWEN o you think it’s possible for a room, a space or an art gallery to “come alive” and be transformed into a living, organic entity? Shahrokh Yadegari, UC San Diego music professor and head of Sonic Arts at the Qualcomm Institute, thinks so. Yadegari is talking about the sound installation piece, “Silent Music” by Canadian sound artist Robin Minard, which went up at the Calit2 Art Gallery in Atkinson Hall on campus, April 6. “The gallery space that Minard has created, with its flower array of speakers and tape loop of sounds, takes on a life of its own and becomes like a living organism or being!” said Yadegari. Minard’s installation resembles a minimalistic flower garden where you might go to sit on a bench and listen to the quiet sounds of nature — the titter of birds, the rustle of leaves or the bees buzzing in the early morning. But “Silent Music” is both a combination of elements from the natural world and from the world of high technology. Immersed in the garden of flowers and nature sounds are speakers, wires, computer programming and synthetic sounds, some of which move across the room. Upon entering the space, you notice two low, dark-brown wooden benches, one on

Growing from the baseboards and climbing up the walls in unusual and artistic patterns are long-stemmed black flowers. You hear delicate soft sounds barely perceptible. Sometimes, you cannot tell if you are hearing sounds from inside your own ears, noise from the outer hallway or music from Minard’s tape. As you sit, the flowers seem to grow and

reach out to you to make a connection or develop a relationship. The black flowers are actually small, low-powered piezoelectric speakers and the stems are electrical wires. The flowers, which grow up the walls in beautiful patterns, emit the low volume sounds that whisper through the room. It took Minard more than two days to put all the flower speakers and their wiring in place.
Speaker-flowers by Robin Minard
The work in progress
As he explained, Minard first went into the gallery space and listened to it. He developed a relationship with it. He let it affect him. Then he began to construct a new sound environment for the gallery that masked unwanted noises and created new sounds. Some of the sounds are of nature, like the wind whirling leaves, the trickle of water over stones or a distant chorus of cicadas. Some

are musical, like a cloth mallet striking a metal marimba. Some of the sounds are familiar; others are synthetic and very unfamiliar. The exhibit asks the observer to slow way down and give up the multi-tasking mind so that she/he can listen and carefully contemplate how the sounds affect them. “The purpose of my exhibit is to sharpen awareness and make participants more conscious of the sounds that are all around us, which often go unnoticed — things like the cars going by on the street or the humming of an air-conditioning unit in a room,” Minard explained. “My exhibit asks: Is it possible to listen deeper, with more consciousness? Can sounds that are usually unconscious become conscious? Can we open up to hearing all the sounds going on around us?” Katharina Rosenberger, UCSD music composition professor, who has taught classes with Minard at the Bauhaus University in Germany, added, “Every time I go into the Calit2 Gallery and listen, I

WILL BOWEN
discover new things! The experience opens my ears, sharpens my perception, and makes me realize and remember that there is always more going on than what I think. Hopefully, my experience will carry over and I will listen more consciously in other settings and thus be able to perceive the world around me better.”
How does sound affect you?
Minard is also concerned with sculpting sound environments that are healthy. He believes both our hearing and our physical health are adversely affected by all the modern noise pollution around us. He said he would like to see sound considered in the architectural design of buildings and outdoor spaces. He has done a very good job of designing sound at Calit2. After sitting in the room for an hour, one feels refreshed, clear, clean, cool, healthy and peaceful. The gallery attendant, who has sat in the gallery for more than three years, agrees. He says this is the most peaceful

Minard’s installation is part of an ongoing series of works he has placed in quiet public areas or exhibition spaces; he’s put up his sound gardens in parks and libraries, old factories, even an abandoned indoor swimming pool. Minard was born in Montreal in 1953 and educated in Canada and in France. The focus of his work has been on electroacoustic music and sound installation. From 1992 to 1996, he was a lecturer on sound installation at the Electronic Studio of the Berlin Technical University. Since 1997, he’s been a professor

for electroacoustical composition and sound design at the Franz Liszt Academy and Bauhaus University in Weimar, where, at the latter, he is director of the Studio for Electroacoustical Music.

ON LITERARY TERMS
The Book Club celebrates 60 years BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON he “paper” anniversary is traditionally the first year, and the 37th anniversary is the “book” year, but for a book club with a longtime presence in La Jolla, its 60th anniversary was all about the books. To commemorate, the group read John Steinbeck’s “The Moon is Down” and held a luncheon April 26 at the Sheraton La Jolla Hotel. The group (aka The Book Club) has been regularly meeting 11 times a year for the past 60 years to have lively discussions about literature, including fiction, non-fiction, Shakespeare, contemporary plays and everything in between. Unable to recall its title, members said the first book they read was “relatively new” when they chose it, and it was about the Leopold and Loeb murder case of 1924. “We started because a few of us were friends in college, and we all had little kids at home and wanted a couple of hours to talk with other grown-ups,” said founding member Phyllis Minick of La Jolla. Added Teddie Lewis, “We went through having babies together, then school-age children, bar mitzvahs and confirmations, weddings, our children growing up and then our grandchildren coming along.” And while the membership may have changed to integrate more retired professionals than stay-at-home moms, the format of the meetings has stayed the same — for the most part. Each month, the group reads the voted upon book and comes together fourth Wednesdays to have a facilitated discussion about it. (To avoid conflict with holidays, rather than meet in November and December, they have one combination meeting the first week of December.) The discussions are occasionally led by professors and other literary professionals, but sometimes, the group leads themselves, armed with reviews or questions about the work to generate dialogue. The meetings are hosted in members’ homes on a rotation basis, and originally included lunch, but the group gradually shifted away from the culinary aspect to focus on the literature. As founding member Gerry Horwitz recalled, “When we started, one of our founding members had a mother who was involved in the Great Books Program and she made suggestions about what we could read. Then we started having a woman, whose husband was a college professor, and who was leading at least one other book club, become a member and she led us every month and recommended readings. “But we didn’t always just accept her

recommendation, she would name a few and we would vote on one or all of them. Then we started having a committee of three that, twice a year, would make a list of 10 or 12 books they recommended and we all voted.” With that process, books have come along that some say they’d never have chosen for themselves, and only read because it was The Book Club selection; and some books have been read that were “crummy,” but spurred enlightening discussion. Regardless of the text, respectful disagreement and debate was inevitable. “Even if we don’t care for the book that much,
the discussion when we all get together gives us a whole different perspective,” said Lewis. “We’ve had marvelous discussions over not-so-good books.” Having been with the group for so long, Horwitz reports that she knows, going into the discussion, whether she is going agree with a certain person. “I just know as soon as so-and-so opens her mouth, I’ll agree with her, but when this other person opens her mouth, I’ll disagree. But we’ve all grown over the years, and things in our lives change our perspective. A person I used to disagree with … to my surprise ... I will agree with from time to time. It’s a matter of growth.”
ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON
And when debate does arise, it’s handled with a non-judgmental attitude, one of the secrets to the group’s endurance. “It’s not about someone being right and someone being wrong, it’s just about the chance to hear different opinions,” Horwitz said. Several members added that they’ve come to the meeting with one opinion, but after hearing from the group, left with a changed mind. Newest member Judy Price Lewis said she appreciates that everyone brings different experiences, insight and knowledge that sheds new light. “I find it interesting that some people focus on writing style, others focus on the plot, and that adds depth to the discussion,” she said. “We also try to learn something about the author’s history, which gives us an understanding as to where they’re coming from when they wrote what they wrote, and this informs our discussions.” The Book Club membership is by invitation-only when there is a vacancy, but if there isn’t an opening, members advocate for joining another nearby. “Every library has a book club and there are lots of participation opportunities,” Minick said. “This is a time of such controversy and isolation in the world, so to have an acquaintanceship that mixes ideas and people like this, is such a wonderful thing.”

‘Sayonara Sing’
One last Community Sing for retiring choral director MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN

people and run a small business. You learn to work under pressure and in a space where you are really empowered to express yourself and make decisions and execute them,” she told La Jolla Light. For Schoenberg, the student space has held different meanings at different times. “It started out being the original Student Center and it was a place where you could have guests. It had a rustic atmosphere, where students could carve their names on the tables ... that was the original purpose of making it a Student Center,” he said. “The Ché is one of those laboratories, experimentation places, where a lot of the really interesting things that we now take for granted, were experiments at the time. The recycling co-op had its foundation here in the 1990s, and now, recycling is mainstream and the administration puts its own cans out. “To this point, it’s being a place on campus to do alternative projects ... students can have a place where they feel they’re controlling it. (In other student-run spaces on campus) there’s a lot of top-down management, where the administrators tell you what you should be
The La Jolla Light cameras were present at the Deep Time University event, April 12 at Ché Café, where UCSD student Michael Ano borrowed the space for a collaboration with the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. The idea was to engage and encourage students to examine connections often overlooked in a traditional course of study, which included a tour of the Ché! Watch it online at lajollalight.com doing as a student. It’s rare to find a space that’s actually run by students themselves.” According to Calderón, the value of the Ché for the university takes roots in that student-controlled essence of the collective. “For a university community, it’s really important because student autonomy isn’t really as celebrated as much as it should be, and student-run spaces are not as valued as I think they should be,” she concluded.
Before taking his final bow as Choral Director of La Jolla Symphony & Chorus (LJS&C) in June, David Chase will gather a crowd of choral enthusiasts for an afternoon of serious-but-fun singing. Calling it his “Sayonara Sing,” the program is set for 4 p.m. Sunday, April 30 at St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church, 6628 Santa Isabel in Carlsbad. “I’ve chosen Leonard Bernstein’s ‘Chichester Psalms,’ which, like ‘Messiah,’ so many of us have performed and enjoyed,” Chase said. “This Sing is aimed at all veterans of the annual Messiah-Sing and alumni of the choruses I’ve conducted over the last 43 years. Everyone is welcome. The format will be the same: rehearsal, then a performance run-through. It’s not practical to have the orchestra play, so we’ll use the excellent arrangement for organ, harp and percussion, which is sanctioned by composer and publisher.” Tickets (which include use of loaner scores) are $12 at (858) 534-4637 or lajollasymphony.com

San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263
The Dangers of Leaving Varicose Veins Untreated Varicose veins, the ropy cord-like veins that bulge beneath the skin, are common enough, especially when age, weight, pregnancy, and heredity are factors. But just because they are common and frequently harmless doesn’t mean they should be left untreated. There are people with varicose veins who are lucky to experience no pain or discomfort with their milder cases. However, many patients suffering from varicose veins will find that the condition can cause itchiness in the areas around the bulges, and that varicose
veins in the legs often lead to leg discomfort and fatigue, as well as pain and swelling of the skin. These symptoms can be alleviated by wearing compression stockings and elevating the legs, or losing weight, but the varicose veins and the negative effects won’t go away on their own. Because varicose veins are caused by weakened venous walls, causing blood to pool in the lower extremities, nothing can be done to re-strengthen the veins. Therefore, a licensed vascular surgeon or vein specialist should be consulted for treatment. So what are the actual dangers of untreated varicose veins? The most serious and extreme effect of varicose veins would be deep vein thrombosis, a blood clot that could move through the body and cause a life-threatening pulmonary embolism. In other cases, untreated varicose veins could lead to a hardening of the tissues in the legs known as lipodermosclerosis, caused by inflammation of the tissues surrounding
the varicose veins. Lipodermosclerosis leaves sufferers with heaviness in the legs and a painful tenderness. Because the venous walls are weak, untreated varicose veins can also seep blood into the surrounding tissues, which will inflame the tissues and cause a dark discoloration known as hyperpigmentation. This is not merely a superficial condition, as the blood seepage can cause the inflammation that leads to lipodermosclerosis. On top of this, the varicose veins can actually lead to the surrounding skin becoming not only sensitive but fragile and easily broken. Because the blood has already been pooling in the varicose veins, a simple scratch or bump could lead to excessive blood loss if untreated. Similarly, the skin can break down around the untreated varicose veins, causing venous leg ulcers. Imagine a bed sore on the legs to get an impression of what can happen if left untreated. This is almost always a
result of prolonged untreated varicose veins leading to a condition called chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), which includes long term fluid buildup in the swollen tissues surrounding the varicose veins. If an ulcer develops, it is best to see your doctor immediately for treatment. If you have any of the above symptoms persisting, don’t wait to consult your vascular surgeon or venous specialist. In the case of suspected deep vein thrombosis, go to emergency care immediately. The good news is that varicose veins are easily treatable, usually involving a short office visit to receive sclerotherapy—a series of injections of sclerosant, which damages the inside lining of the vein. The subsequent scarring causes the vein to close. Because varicose veins are a medical condition that can have very harmful effects if left untreated, most health plans will cover the procedure.
