BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN On Tuesday, May 2, the La Jolla Crossroads apartment complex pool reopened to residents after being closed off during the investigation of a mass shooting that occurred there Sunday, April 30. Apartment complex personnel tried to clean up the blood stains, but marks on the concrete pavement were evidence of the tragedy suffered by pool party-goers two days before. One of the seven gunshot victims, who died from her injuries, was identified as 35-year-old Monique Clark, a mother of three children. Two other injured people were in critical condition (at press time) at Scripps Hospital, but are expected to make a full recovery. A prayer service and a memorial planned by friends and family members for May 2 at the 9085 Judicial Drive complex in University City were canceled without explanation.

La Jolla Children’s Pool Walk project delayed City evaluating scaled down alternatives
BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON Two months before construction was set to begin, the Children’s Pool Walk Beautification Project is facing yet another setback, causing some La Jolla Parks & Beaches (LJP&B) advisory group members to question whether the project (which could cost anywhere from $250,000 to $690,000) will ever come to fruition. Project plans would aesthetically improve the sidewalk and viewing area above Children’s Pool (originally built in 1931 with the construction of the seawall) and open up pedestrian flow and access. Construction was slated for June, but LJP&B president Ann Dynes said three new “developments” have come up, which need to be addressed, and she and other LJP&B members met with City engineers on April 10 to get the details. Chiefly, City engineers have determined that 1) the short wall that surrounds Children’s Pool may qualify as “historic,” which would affect any SEE CHILDREN’S POOL, A6

Parks & Beaches board weighs Concours d’Elegance benefits Perhaps ‘Now it is too big’
BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON This year’s La Jolla Concours d’Elegance car show drew a record number of attendees to La Jolla the weekend of April 7-9, for an exclusive weekend of car viewing and luxury events around Scripps Park. For some La Jolla Parks & Beaches (LJP&B) members, that’s not exactly a good thing. During its April 24 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center, the board discussed the event, including its phenomenal growth and the fact that the Concours requires a six-foot fence around the park. Organizer Michael Dorvillier was in attendance to answer questions. The 13th annual event featured a Rolls-Royce Contemporary Classic cocktail party at The LOT Friday night, a Tour of Cars with 85 vehicles Saturday morning between Symbolic motorcars and La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club, a Bentley Motors VIP Reception Saturday night (at which 1,000 people were in attendance), the all-day ticketed car show at Scripps Park and concurrent Motorcar Classic, where 90 cars lined Coast Boulevard for the free public viewing on Sunday. “It seems to me the Concours d’Elegance has gotten so big, it needs to look for another venue. I went down to the park on Saturday and the whole thing was screened out. You can’t see the grass, you can’t see the ocean. It’s becoming such an exclusive event that the public has been screened out of a public area,” said LJP&B member Mary Ellen Morgan. “The park is being exploited and we lived with it (in years past) when people could
VINCENT ANDRUNAS
Partial overview of the 2017 La Jolla Concours D’Elegance, April 9 at Scripps Park kind of see the cars, the grass and the ocean. But now it is too big.” Member Debbie Beacham agreed. “What we have now is a huge amount of people at such a large event. We knew this event was going to grow and we’ve asked (organizers) about a growth management plan and now we … need to look at growth management and possibly scale it back.” Among the issues presented, Beacham reported a lack of restroom facilities for the number of people expected. Portable toilets were brought in for the event, but only to the inside of the fenced-off area reserved for those who paid the entry fee. People who wanted to see the cars along Coast Boulevard used the public restroom facility at Scripps Park. However, at one point, the park restrooms backed up, causing a “sewage spill.” LJP&B
member Bill Robbins said because the system is old and relies on a pump (coupled with the fact that large amounts of people and/or those unfamiliar with what they could and could not flush), the restroom backed up. However, plans are underway to replace the restroom facilities down the line. Proving the response to the event and its size are mixed, LJP&B member Tom Brady applauded the event and said it “provided notoriety for The Village.” La Jolla Village Merchants Association executive director Sheila Fortune added that Concours is a boon for businesses. “The restaurants were full and doing well, and the hotels were booked. This is one day a year that we have this kind of turnout in The Village, and the merchants really benefit from this event,” she said. Further, Dorvillier said organizers “leave
the park in better shape than we find it,” and part of the event protocol is extensive cleanup before and after the car show. He produced a cleaning bill that included: emptying trash cans, sweeping the street, de-magnetizing the entire park for metal fragments and hand raking the grass. Dorvillier added that the event brings in out-of-town guests, who by staying in La Jolla hotels, pay into the City’s Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) that goes to the City’s general fund. “That adds value that allows us to go to the City for much-needed funds,” he said. Locally, 100 percent of net proceeds are donated to the La Jolla Historical Society, which, in turn, gives smaller donations to other beneficiaries such as the Monarch School. Dorvillier said the numbers are still coming in, but the Concours is expected to have raised around $80,000. The event has a ticket promotion through which purchasers can use a code to get $5 off their ticket cost, and designate a $10 donation to one of the event charities. LJP&B had a code, but no one used it this year. Nevertheless, Dorvillier donated $500 to the LJP&B board, which Morgan scoffed at and called “a bribe.” Dorvillier said he would return in the coming months to request support for the 2018 Concours, and would be available to board members in the interim to answer questions. — La Jolla Parks & Beaches next meets 4 p.m. Monday, May 22 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollaparksandbeaches.org

La Jollans: Airplane noise isn’t going anywhere
An Airport Authority staff-created map shows the top five flights with most complaints so far in 2017.
AIRPORT AUTHORITY
BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN The Airport Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) meeting April 26 at the Portuguese Hall in Point Loma was evidence that the aircraft noise issue in La Jolla remains ... and is growing. A total of 85 households from different areas within La Jolla logged airplane noise complaints this year through March 31 — La Jolla, 44; La Jolla Mesa, 21; La Jolla Shores, 12; Bird Rock, 8. “The number of households from La Jolla (85), is greater than the sum of all the other communities in San Diego put together (67),” said Bird Rock resident Matthew Price. “Most people (at this meeting) are from La Jolla, and overwhelmingly, the people affected by the noise are from La Jolla.” He put forth a request for a local rep to be added to the ANAC board. A new demographic of complaints — composed of younger people with small children — showed up at the meeting. Bird Rock resident Krishna Ratnam told attendees the first word from his 2-year-old was “airplane.” “We would go to the Bird Rock Coffee Roasters and watch these silver objects over the ocean. Now, when we see the planes from the coffee shop, I can read Southwest and United Airlines on them,” Ratnam said. Committee members discussed an agenda item about the ANAC subcommittee’s request to send a letter to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) seeking a high-level representative at their meetings, alleging the currently designated person doesn’t have the level of answers or access they desire to make progress. “Without substantive FAA representation, our community’s recourse to noise pollution will be severely degraded,” the letter reads. La Jolla recently gained a representative on the ANAC subcommittee, Chris McCann, who voiced his support for the letter. But at the ANAC meeting, board members began showing uneasiness toward its message. Congress member Scott Peters’ board representative Brian Elliott, was the first one to break the ice. “I think our relationship with the FAA has been good so

FAA responds La Jolla Light contacted FAA public affairs manager Ian Gregor about the continuance of airplane noise in the 92037 ZIP code. Here are his answers: ■ Q: La Jollans were told by FAA staff that the March 2 changes in the San Diego Airport flight paths were going to lessen noise levels. However, complaints are on the rise. How do you explain that? A: I do not believe anyone from the FAA made any such statement.
MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN
Bird Rock resident Krishna Ratnam tells Airport Noise Advisory committee members about his experiences at the April 26 meeting.
■ Q: La Jollans were told by FAA that the changes weren’t going to be implemented until March 2, yet everybody agrees that they started hearing the noise in November, and have felt no changes since March 2. What happened? A: We did not implement any new flight routes in November. We implemented the new routes in March. We send representatives to the ANAC meetings to try and understand noise concerns, and try to identify possible causes of those concerns.
far. I read through the letter and wanted to throw some alternatives to submitting it to the FAA, to maintain the relationship we have with them,” he said. But subcommittee representative Deborah Watkins replied, “(At our last meeting) we did not get answers at all, that’s why there was frustration. We need to have someone who can answer our questions on a regular basis.” The motion to approve the letter was rescinded, and the discussion was tabled for the following meeting (June 28) with the plan that Airport Authority staff member Sjohnna Knack would contact the FAA and ask them informally for a higher-up representative to attend ANAC subcommittee meetings. During public comment, La Jollans expressed their dismay with the board’s lack of action. “I’m extremely disappointed with this committee,” La Jolla resident Kasia Navarro stated. “Shame on you all. Now, I have to go home to explain to my kids why they have to close their windows tonight,” she said, adding that “the noise starts at 6:30 a.m. and continues every couple of minutes. It’s like a blender, it’s incredibly unsettling even with our windows closed.” La Jolla rep McCann proposed, “(FAA’s Southern California air traffic manager) Barry Davis needs to be there, or
someone like him needs to be there. If the FAA doesn’t show up with someone who can be a part of the solution, they’re part of the problem.”
Bye Bye Webtrack
The Airport Authority has substituted Flight Tracker (accessed at flighttracker.casper.aero/san) for its web-based flight tracking system Webtrack. It’s a similar platform from a different vendor. As of April 27, the San Diego Webtrack website was switched off and all web-based complaints must be received through Flight Tracker. Knack explained the vendor was selected through a public tender years ago, and airport staff has been working with the company to enhance the service and make it more useful for San Diegans. “With Flight Tracker, the delay is 15 minutes (as opposed to 30 minutes with Webtrack), so we get a bit closer in time,” she said. Other advantages include a more complete set of data for each airplane. For many, the downside is the change comes along with ANAC’s removal of e-mail complaints. McCann asked, “I’m curious as to how many (complaints) were received by e-mail? Since you’re going to cease e-mail on May 27, many of those complaints are going to disappear, I think we will
see a (false) decrease in complaints at the next meeting.” Knack replied that the new system will come with an adaptation process for users. “But that way, when we get that info, we can do some investigation, when now, all we’re doing is inputting data. What this new process allows us to do is go into the system and instantaneously provide statistics, and we can analyze data any way we can, so we can move into case management.” Instructions on how to use the new system can be found at bit.ly/SDFlightTracker
Flight noise after dark
Airport Authority staff showed a study of the five events that logged the most complaints thus far in 2017. All five of them flew near or over La Jolla, but the three top hitters (with seven, six and five complaints respectively) were nighttime noise abatement procedures or curfew violations making a right turn over La Jolla after 10 p.m. “What’s happening after 10 p.m. it’s particularly egregious,” Bird Rock resident Price said, “between 10 and 11:30 p.m. the noise is nonstop because flights heading east, are going north, and keep flying north as far as La Jolla Shores. … And that’s only a minority of the problem.”

FROM CHILDREN’S POOL, A1 improvements done to it; 2) there are safety issues, which may result in the wall being raised or some form of screen being put in place; and 3) engineers discovered a storm drain that needs to be repaired before work can proceed. Addressing each of these points, San Diego Public Information Officer Alec Phillipp told La Jolla Light, via e-mail, “The retaining wall system was determined to be eligible for designation in the National Register. As a result, any improvements to the retaining wall as part of the project should be consistent with the U.S. Secretary of Interior’s Standards for preserving historical resources. City staff is currently reviewing the project and assisting Public Works staff to ensure consistency with the standards.” Further, he said, “Any improvements to existing structures would trigger modifications to meet current (safety) code requirements.” Regarding the drain pipes, he said, “An investigation of the condition of the line must be made from the outlet side of the pipe, but must wait until after June 1 when the harbor seal pupping season ends. This will be part of determining any corrective measures necessary for pipe repair.” All said, Phillipp reports the City is “evaluating alternatives that scale down the scope of work.” To present these alternatives, City engineers have agreed to attend LJP&B’s July 24 meeting. LJP&B member Phyllis Minick, who has been heading the project for six years, said she considers the City’s continued interest a good sign. “Whether the sidewalk is changed,
ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON
Children’s Pool Walk beautification project organizer Phyllis Minick whether the wall is changed or repaired, the main idea was to open up the sidewalk for better pedestrian flow. That area is grossly overused,” she said. “The City has agreed to look at that and report back. If they do nothing else but replace the spikey Natal Plum plant, and just put down decomposed granite, it would open up a considerable walkway. That would satisfy the access issue. The planners want to give us what we’d like to have, but the obstructions are there and there’s nothing we can do about it. We’d be wise to overlook them as much as possible and move forward in July to make the area better.” However, LJP&B member Ken Hunrichs said he has a different impression of the situation. “My takeaway is that the City didn’t want to complete this project so they found a way, using this historical, safety and code

La Jolla Historical Society preservation committee chair Diane Kane speaks about the pros and cons of getting the Children’s Pool retaining wall designated ‘historic.’ regulation processes to kill this project.”
A blessing in disguise?
In the meantime, Dynes said the board would investigate whether it would want to pursue getting the wall designated “historic.” To shed some light on the pros and cons of such action, La Jolla Historical Society preservation committee chair Diane Kane spoke at the meeting. “You are actually lucky that the wall (could be) historic because it gives you some slack. What tends to happen when you have works of engineering like this — which are both historic and serve a safety purpose — the safety aspect tends to override the historic aspect,” she explained. “And engineers get very enthusiastic about bringing the thing up to code … so they will raise the bar up to the required level, which can be completely inappropriate for a historic resource. It can
also be unnecessary.” According to Dynes, safety enhancements the City is considering include, a guardrail at a height of 42 inches from the ground at different locations along that wall. “A drawing of what was proposed showed a metal mesh screen that would be installed along the top of the wall,” she said in an e-mail about the situation. Kane, who worked for Cal Trans for 20 years as its architectural historian, said if the Children’s Pool Wall is deemed “historic,” it would not necessarily need to meet current safety standards. She advised the board to find out how many, and types of, accidents have happened at the site to determine if there is a problem that would need to be addressed. “If the (only) issue is that this was built a long time ago and it doesn’t come up to current standards, that doesn’t mean it’s inherently unsafe, it’s just not at current standards. The State Building Code allows you to keep historic material in its condition as long as it is not unsafe. If it is unsafe, you have to consider in what way it’s unsafe and what’s the minimum amount of treatment necessary to correct whatever safety issues are identified,” she said. Dynes noted that if the board were to proceed with getting the wall designated “historic,” “we might be able to restore the wall without having to put the safety precautions on it, and that would put this whole project back on track.” She added that she would like to meet with representatives from the La Jolla Historical Society to better understand board options and next steps. — La Jolla Parks & Beaches next meets 4 p.m. Monday, May 22 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollaparksandbeaches.org

La Jolla Shores permitters OK home rebuild project Calle Chiquita residence to double in size BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN A project to demolish an existing 4,453-square-foot house and construct a new 8,697-square-foot single-family residence in its place at 2326 Calle Chiquita in La Jolla Shores received approval on first review by the La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (PRC) during its April 25 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center. The next day, the La Jolla Shores Planned District Advisory Board OK’d the project 4-0-0. The house, situated on a 0.75-acre lot, has a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.27, which according to project architect Laura Conboy, is about the average for the single-family residences within 300 feet. The structure also features a 4,628-square-foot basement, outdoor decks, a 50-foot turnaround, outdoor play area and a pool. The proposed west side setback is the smallest in the project, with 10 to 15 feet of separation from the pool to the next-door neighbor’s home. For PRC trustee Janie Emerson, that was unsettling. “My concern is that with a lot and a house of this size, you should not be on top of your neighbor because you have plenty of room,” she said. Conboy pointed out that the property line to the west sits on a slope common to another neighbor. “It’s a shared problem because the property lines cut through the
cause a problem. Trustee Matt Edwards said, “Compared to other stuff we’ve seen, this project is beautiful!” A motion to approve it in first review passed 5-3-0.

Artist drawing of the 8,697-square-foot residence proposed for 2326 Calle Chiquita slope, and just fixing our side can’t guarantee that nothing will ever happen, so the neighborly thing seemed to be, ‘Let’s fix the slope and make it stable,’ ” she said. PRC trustee Angie Preisendorfer, who lives nearby, said she spoke with the property’s west neighbor, who said she was content with the applicant fixing the slope with grading and a retaining wall. The two-story residence will sit just below the 30-foot height limit in many of its points, but Conboy assured the board that the design had been done in collaboration with the only neighbor whose view could be affected, Dr. Clark, who was present at the meeting. “We have lived in the Montoro community since 1979. We overlook our neighbor and they went out of their way to

make sure we keep our view. My wife is totally happy with this, so I’m totally happy with this,” he said. Storm drainage within the property will be achieved through bio-filtration basins. “The City is requiring us to do the maximum we can (in terms of drainage), so not only will we have to filter the water, we have to slow it down,” Conboy explained, “We created a series of bio-filtration basins, we have them as a series of tiers by the driveway.” As for the soils, she related, the property sits on the Scripps Formation, made up of mostly natural sandstone. The geological report indicated a “slight water seepage,” probably from the underground river that has damaged many homes in the area, but Conboy assured trustees it was too deep to

A second information-only presentation about an eight-lot subdivision on a 4.45-acre site at 8082 Calle del Cielo in La Jolla Shores, occupied the rest of the meeting. Architect Paul Benton elaborated on some of the concerns discussed at the previous presentation, such as the fence that would separate the neighborhood from the public street. He clarified that, contrary to what he stated previously, there is street parking in the plans for the cul-de-sac and he hadn’t made a decision about the gate, which seemed to be the preferred option for many neighbors. PRC Chair Dave Gordon said, “As a citizen, I’d rather not have a fence there, and I don’t think people will park there if it’s noted as a ‘private drive.’ ” The discussion continued on the length of the setbacks of the properties inside the subdivision and with the adjacent properties. Benton said there conversations about giving more space to the southeast neighbor were underway. The applicant will return with a formal project presentation at a future meeting. —PRC next meets 4 p.m. Tuesday, May 23 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. bit.ly/LaJollaAgendas

La Jolla Park & Rec board hears plan for skate plaza at Rec Center BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON A proposal to incorporate a “skate plaza” on the La Jolla Rec Center playground at 615 Prospect St., was presented during the La Jolla Park & Rec, Inc. (LJPR) board meeting April 26. The proposal was also offered from a booth at the Rec Center’s Spring Egg Hunt, April 15, which had reported attendance of 800 people throughout the day. The skate plaza proposal has further been listed on a survey that went live April 15 at reviveljrc.org to collect feedback from the community on the various ways the playground could be improved. The skate park option was added later that same day. Marnie Cheney, director of the High Tech High Foundation Board and a La Jolla resident who’s been part of the effort to establish a skate park in La Jolla since 2010, is spearheading the proposal. She said a skate plaza could be used by those in wheelchairs and those on skateboards, bikes and scooters. (Bikes are currently not allowed on the Rec Center grounds.) “Our idea is to take out the existing younger kids’ playground where the swings are and put the multi-use skate plaza there, along with shade and trees,” she said. “The younger kids play area would be moved to where the grass is now to take some of that space.” Although she said the skate plaza would not be “as loud as people think,” Cheney suggested placing the plaza on the side of the playground closest to Draper Avenue to minimize noise to residents. Representatives from the La Jolla Woman’s Club and La Jolla Presbyterian Church, located across the street, were not present to comment on the plans.
ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON
Marnie Cheney talks about establishing a ‘skate plaza’ at La Jolla Rec Center. Regarding safety, Cheney said signs would need to be posted with the rules, and users would monitor themselves to ensure everyone wears appropriate safety gear, such as helmets. “A Rec Center staff person could be posted to supervise, but parents might also be there to watch and make sure everyone is being safe. These kids are older kids who can learn responsibility. I’ve seen it happen,” she said. However, La Jolla Rec Center director Nicole Otjens said she used to work at a facility with a skate park and “I used every bit of CPR and First-Aid training I knew (to treat injuries).” And though the facility was supervised, she witnessed a five-year-old child being knocked unconscious. “But whatever the City wants to do is fine,” she added, “If it becomes part of our job to go out and supervise a skate plaza, that’s OK.”
Other board members voiced concerns about whether the La Jolla Rec Center is large enough to accommodate a skate plaza, basketball and/or sport courts, and two ADA-compliant play areas for two different age groups — a tot lot for toddlers and an area for older children. At the Spring Egg Hunt, LJPR representatives set up a booth to inform families about the plans to renovate the playground and collect feedback. Acting chair Mary Coakley Munk said the booth had images of the Rec Center as it stands and plans for an alternative layout. The skate plaza idea was presented alongside as another option. “Everyone who wanted to show anything was invited to do so and we had a lively discussion,” Coakley Munk said. To collect additional input, the website and 10-question survey were set up at reviveljrc.org In the survey, questions such as, “How often do you visit the La Jolla Rec Center?” “What is the primary reason you visit the La Jolla Rec Center?” and “What changes would most improve the La Jolla Rec Center?” are posed. Among the options available for changes to the Rec Center playground are: Keeping the current layout while updating the play structures and basketball court surface; adding a skate park with ramps extending into grass area; and combining both play areas for additional space and safety and direct line of sight. At the LJPR meeting, when the survey had been live for just over a week, there were 39 responses. The board set a deadline of June 1

New thoughts on PSA screening for men, ages 55-69
F
ive years ago, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) issued prostate cancer screening guidelines that proposed most men should forego routine prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing, suggesting that the test provided little benefit and tended to lead to over-diagnosis and overtreatment. This month, the USPSTF changed its collective mind. Its new recommendations now encourage men, ages 55-69, to discuss the pros and cons of testing, based upon their personal health, family history of the disease, risk factors such as ethnicity, and a conversation with their physician. Some have described the USPSTF action as a course correction, but Christopher Kane, M.D., chair of the Department of Urology at UC San Diego Health and a nationally known specialist in prostate cancer, says it’s “a huge reversal, a fundamental change.” “The USPSTF’s position was basically to not screen anybody, which led primary doctors to largely abandon testing,” he said. With dire ramifications. Much of the success against prostate cancer in recent years, according to Kane, can be attributed to PSA testing. To be sure, the USPSTF’s latest draft report is not the end of the story. The utility of prostate cancer screenings will continue to be debated, sometimes hotly, with research ongoing to prove whether the potential benefits of testing
outweigh the possible harms. A lot of men will be watching and waiting. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men after skin cancer, with roughly 167,000 new cases each year. But while this number is high, the prognosis is pretty good overall: Virtually all men diagnosed with prostate cancer will survive five years or more if the disease is detected early enough. Indeed, almost 3 million American diagnosed men are alive today. The PSA test measures the level of a specific protein in the blood. PSA levels naturally rise with age (and factors like inflammation can elevate them), but higher levels may also indicate the presence of cancer. In the 1980s, before the Food and Drug Administration approved PSA testing, the 5-year survival rate for prostate cancer was 70-75 percent; now it’s 99 percent. The USPSTF’s reversal, said Kane, is due to several factors. First, a big U.S. clinical trial that the task force largely based its 2012 recommendations upon proved to be fundamentally flawed, with contaminated data inaccurately interpreted. That rendered unreliable its conclusion that PSA testing offered no benefit, according to Kane. Second, a European version of the U.S. clinical trial without the flaws showed that men who underwent prostate cancer screening did measurably benefit. (Although to be fair, the European study has its critics too.)
And third, these benefits grew larger as men grew older. Prostate cancer is an age-related disease. The average age of diagnosis is 66. It’s rare in men under the age of 40. As more time has passed since the clinical trials, the benefits of screening have become more evident. Or rather, less so: Fewer late-stage diagnoses and deaths among men in their 70s and 80s. The PSA test is not the beginning nor the end of the story. An elevated PSA finding typically triggers further investigation and action. In the past, that sometimes led too quickly to surgery and radiation — remedies that don’t always work and come with substantial adverse side-effects. But doctors and scientists know a lot more about prostate cancer now than they did just five years ago. For many men, the cancer is very slow-growing. It will not spread or significantly harm them in their lifetimes. For these men, active surveillance is the preferred option, regular testing and monitoring to make sure their cancer remains indolent and unchanged. The PSA test casts a wide net. It’s good at detecting even a hint of cancer, but not its nature, whether it is slow or aggressive. These days doctors have new and additional tests to employ when they have a suspect PSA level, tests like the 4K and Prostate Health Index that advocates believe are better at identifying and differentiating the malignancy threat. They may also eventually have tools like restriction spectrum-magnetic resonance imaging, an approach under development at UCSD School of Medicine and elsewhere. RSI-MRI measures the diffusion of water in prostate tissues. Cancer tissues are denser than healthy tissues and typically limit the amount and mobility of water within and around them. RSI-MRI accurately plots a suspect tumor’s location and provides a more precise delineation of its extent. The latter is particularly important
because it helps physicians better determine the course of treatment. The USPSTF was spot-on in its advice that all men should have a serious talk with their doctor about prostate cancer screening, particularly those who may be at greater risk. The recommendation that men age 70 and over not be screened remains reasonable. At that age, with a disease that typically takes decades to grow, screening seems less relevant. What about men younger than 55? Though their cancer risk is relatively low, new genetic tests are on the horizon that may help identify which young men should think about screening sooner or more often. Good medicine requires informed discussion between physician and patient. The revised USPSTF recommendations are a return to that standard. Greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet was associated with lower prostate cancer mortality. This relationship was stronger among men who had a PSA screening. Preliminary evidence suggests that prostate cancer patients who increase their vegetable fat intake and physical activity, and decrease their animal fat intake and sedentary behavior, have improved outcomes. In fact, Kelly Parsons, M.D., professor of urology, is national lead for the Men’s Eating & Living Study, the first and only national randomized controlled trial testing the efficacy of dietary intervention to prevent clinical progression in active surveillance patients with early stage prostate cancer. The results of this seminal trial will be available within the year and could transform the control of prostate cancer. — Scott M. Lippman, M.D., is director of UCSD Moores Cancer Center.

Hillel project approved at San Diego Planning Commission BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON The proposed Glickman Hillel Center for Jewish Life, to be located on a triangular lot across from UC San Diego bounded by La Jolla Village Drive, La Jolla Scenic Way and La Jolla Scenic Drive North received unanimous approval from the San Diego Planning Commission during its April 27 meeting at City Hall. The project has been in development, and subject to opposition from various La Jolla community advisory boards, for 17 years. With the Planning Commission’s recommendation, the proposal will advance to the San Diego City Council and be docketed at a future meeting. Over the course of approximately three hours of discussion, dozens of supporters, including students, representatives from other Jewish facilities, Congress member Scott Peters (by proxy) and residents spoke in support of the project. Many speakers called the existing site an “eyesore” and lamented how long this process has been. A formal presentation in opposition was also given, and a handful of residents spoke out against the development. At the conclusion of public comment, Planning Commissioner William Hofman said, “I’ve reviewed all the opposition and the group in opposition did a great job presenting their case. But I’m in full support of this project. It’s a good transition from UC San Diego to a residential zone and I don’t see the negative impact to the neighborhood.” He then moved to approve the required documents associated with the project. His motion was quickly seconded by

The Center, as previously reported in La Jolla Light, will be a “center for Jewish life and Jewish students at UCSD,” said Hillel Executive Director Michel Rabkin. “It’s an off-campus center for small group meetings, pastoral counseling, holiday celebrations, prayer services and a place for cultural exploration. So it’s a drop-in center where we will have professional staff to work with students on a day-to-day basis.” However, at the Planning Commission hearing, land use attorney Julie Hamilton reiterated concerns that have surfaced since the project went public in 2000, and referred to Hillel as a “student center” rather than a religious institution. “There is no doubt Hillel is a good organization that serves a good purpose, but the issue here is with the use and the

La Jolla Shores resident Janie Emerson echoed that the problem is the location. “That triangle is a buffer zone between the university and residents. I would ask the buffer be respected,” she said. Several cited additional concerns with potential increases in traffic and noise. Commissioner Douglas Austin noted during his comment period, “It’s not in the middle of a residential neighborhood, it’s on the edge. I believe it creates a buffer and it’s walkable from the campus, which I like. I think it’s a gorgeous project and the community will be happy with it when they have it.” A brief discussion also ensued about the perceived likelihood that students would walk, use rideshare apps such as Uber and bicycle to the facility. The project as presented is a scaled-down
version of what was originally proposed, with the overall square footage reduced by nearly half, and the bulk and scale broken up by converting the one building into three smaller ones. In a press release following the vote, Rabbi David Singer, Director of UC San Diego Hillel, said the LEED-certified project would total approximately 6,500 square feet and would provide space for religious programs in three separate, one- and two-story buildings around a central outdoor courtyard. The plans include a small publicly accessible, park-like area with a bicycle and pedestrian path, bench, and water fountain. A thorough environmental review for the facility was conducted and it concluded that there will be no significant environmental impacts that will result from its development. One year ago, at age 101, La Jolla resident and philanthropist Joseph “Chickie” Glickman donated the lead $5 million gift for the Beverly & Joseph Glickman Hillel Center to provide students at UC San Diego with a permanent Jewish home near campus.

CRIME AND PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS FBI offers $25K for info on 2003 arson The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is offering a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest and conviction of the individual(s) responsible for a series of arsons where several residential condominium complexes were destroyed in La Jolla and greater San Diego in 2003. Anyone with information should call 1-800-CALL-FBI (225-5324) or submit a confidential tip at tips.fbi.gov According to the FBI, at around 3:30 a.m. Aug. 1, 2003, a La Jolla residential condominium complex construction site with an estimated value of $50 million was destroyed by fire. A large white cloth with the message “If you build it — we will build it we will burn it the elf’s are mad” was left at the scene. Six weeks later, two separate new-home sites in San Diego were also destroyed.
Multiple banners, similar to the one found in August, were left at both fire scenes. One banner read, “Environmental murder. Nature demands justice. The E.L.F.s are mad.” Earth Liberation Front (ELF), a radical environmental group that advocated direct action through economic sabotage to stop the destruction of the natural environment, claimed responsibility. No injuries occurred at the arson scenes. In La Jolla, hundreds of nearby residents were evacuated.
Explicit comment leads to battery at restaurant A case of “battery with serious bodily injury,” was reported on the 1200 block Prospect St. on April 28, when an unknown male made a sexual comment toward a female server at a restaurant. San Diego Police report the victim informed the suspect that his comment was not appropriate. The suspect approached the victim and she
punched him several times causing serious, but non-life threatening, injuries.

La Jolla Veterinary Hospital: It’s all about care and compassion
Paws & Pints fundraiser May 18 at The LOT BY DAVID L. CODDON Although she may not have realized it at the time, Stephanie Coolidge’s background in the hospitality industry would one day help make a difference in another industry: veterinary care. While studying culinary arts at the Art Institute of California in San Diego 12 years ago, Coolidge was hired by La Jolla Veterinary Hospital, which she said recognized that “there was a need for some hospitality in the veterinary industry.” Today Coolidge is hospital director at La Jolla Veterinary, and the mission continues: to build the personal relationship between hospital staff and pet owners. “We consider ourselves in the hospitality industry just as much as we consider ourselves in the pet industry,” Coolidge said. “We sometimes make the mistake of forgetting that pets don’t walk themselves through the door. You’ve got to be a people person. You’ve got to know how to make people feel good. “I think we’re in the people business a lot more than most think.” Along with nurturing the relationship between veterinary hospital staff and pet
Some of the La Jolla Veterinary Hospital staff at a Walk for Animals event owners, there’s ongoing sensitivity to office morale. La Jolla Veterinary has a workforce of 25. “There’s something called compassion fatigue that everyone in the veterinary industry knows about,” said Coolidge. “This is an occupation of the heart. There’s not always a happy ending. That affects people more than you realize. We care so desperately and we get down just like anybody else. There are two sides of a

veterinarian — there’s the medical side and there’s the giant heart, the human part.” One way to reward and bring employees together is by involving them in philanthropic events, such as La Jolla Veterinary Hospital’s fourth annual Paws & Pints La Jolla fundraiser, coming up Thursday, May 18 at The LOT on Fay Avenue. “The human spirit is affected tremendously by philanthropy in general,”
explained Coolidge. “The first year we did this for our employees, they were full of joy. There was a residual effect from that for about six months.” With Paws & Pints, “we have this wonderful positive experience that we all get to do together. It’s like fuel. We get filled up once a year.” When Coolidge looks for hospital employees, she measures what she calls their HQ. “It’s like IQ, except it’s for hospitality,” she said. “This means a compassionate, truly empathetic person, not just for the animals but for human beings. A lot of time you’re spending more time with a client, holding their hand, than you are holding the pet’s hand (or paw).” Coolidge believes she can gauge the HQ right away, too. “Within 15 seconds, with a handshake and a smile, I know whether this person’s got a chance (to work at La Jolla Veterinary Hospital).” La Jolla Veterinary Hospital is at 7520 Fay Ave. Hours are 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday-Friday; 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday; 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Sunday.

Beaumont’s Eatery welcomes Chef Matt Richman FROM BEAUMONT’S REPORTS Former Chef-Owner of Table 926, a 2012 San Diego Home & Garden Magazine Silver Fork winner, Matt Richman began honing his skills while attending the California Culinary Academy in San Francisco. For several years after graduating, Chef Matt worked in prestigious kitchens from San Francisco to Miami, before finally relocating back to San Diego.

OUR READERS WRITE Kids help special needs kids at the beach I’m submitting a photo (at right) featuring some of the volunteers who were happy to share their love of the beach with 42 children with special needs at an event from the Best Day Foundation, April 30 at The Shores. It was chilly water, but a beautiful beach day. The families I spoke to were from Vista, Temecula, Lake Elsinore and Anaheim. Best Day Foundation lived up to its name engaging these special kids in surfing, stand-up paddleboarding, an obstacle course and more. The event ended with an awards ceremony and pizza lunch.

WindanSea sewage leak should’ve been prevented Last week, we experienced a 1,350-gallon sewage leak which tarnished our La Jolla beaches. Who is to blame? Reportedly, the cause was a deteriorated rubber gasket and the City’s failure to respond to a 6 a.m. call until 8 a.m., during which time human feces, etc., ran into the WindanSea and Marine Street beaches and closed them down for more than three days. I’ve heard no one talk about how this tragedy could have been prevented or minimized. Questions on my mind are: When did the City last inspect the rubber gasket? And why did it take the City two hours to respond and stop the leak? The residents of and visitors to La Jolla deserve answers to these questions, along with assurances that the City will do everything it can to prevent future sewage leaks into our beautiful ocean. Nancy Linck
Why does it take City so long to do simple projects? No doubt this improvement was long overdue, but to take now, more than four weeks to install about 1,300 lineal feet of sidewalk along Coast Boulevard certainly gives you no warm and fuzzy feeling about government projects and it is still not finished! Every weekday for the last four weeks, there have been as many as 15 workers and no less than 10 City pick-up trucks, loaders, trailers, vans, utility and dump trucks on site. Sometimes there are more vehicles than observed workers. Where are they hiding? How many breaks do they take as when I walk by they are always seemingly on one. The bottom line that at now working day 20 they have put down 1,300 feet of sidewalk! Do the math ... that’s a blazing 65 feet per day! Can someone determine the cost for this City crew and justify the obvious waste that comes with using them to do such improvements? This could have been a one week job in the private sector and for a whole lot less. Why are we paying for such gross waste, mismanagement and incompetence? The best was last week as some fellow government workers were washing the top grate of a storm drain inlet. There was on of those huge 10-wheeled pumper trucks along with two Wastewater Department pick-up trucks. There were three supervisors watching one guy hose off the grate! It must have been a real dirty grate as they were all assembled there for nearly an hour. Obviously, government workers no longer work for the public. Zeke Woolley

We’ve got to curb plane noise before the summer Over the last few months, I read the complaints in La Jolla Light from residents regarding the marked increase in loud aircraft noise in La Jolla, but having been out of town until recently, I did not realize how bad it had suddenly gotten until I spent a day at home trying to work! On April 25, it was so bad I had to give up getting work done and spent the entire day instead logging the constant, loud, disruptive roars of aircraft — the time, direction headed and type of aircraft. Between 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. I logged: 60 LOUD aircraft (I only logged very loud, intrusive noise and taped some). They came from 40 commercial jets (I could see which airline some were; many were northbound flights); 20 were “other” aircraft, the usual onslaught of military helicopters, commercial helicopters and smaller private planes we already chronically deal with in this area, who cruise up and down the coastline or cut east to Brown Field, Gillespie, etc. Although the roar of airline noise was at times only minutes apart, it averaged out to one loud disruption every 10 minutes. Adding in the “other” aircraft noise, it came to one loud disruption every seven minutes for seven hours straight! The next day, April 26, I did attend and speak
at the San Diego Airport Noise Advisory Committee public meeting, along with many other La Jolla residents. All are very upset over this tremendous increase in commercial airline noise in our area and its negative effects on our quality of life. I also reported the flights on the online San Diego Airport Noise Complaint link. After living on the same street at WindanSea Beach for 30 years, I honestly know the constant jet roar from airlines flying closer and lower in this area is most definitely a recent problem. And it is a problem that I, and many distressed residents, are desperate to stop. If more effected residents band together, hopefully something can be done soon — summer will be worse with windows open and time spent outdoors! Lee Miller
La Jollans complain, but Airport Authority does not listen The readers of these pages are by now well aware of the reports of a marked increase in commercial airliner noise assaulting the residents of La Jolla. However, they may be unaware of the utter inaction by the Airport Authority and our governmental representatives on our behalf. Here are the incontrovertible facts: Southbound arrivals to San Diego International Airport follow a new flight plan

OUR READERS WRITE (CONTINUED) that sends jets further south and at a considerably lower altitude along a concentrated path directly over La Jolla Shores and alongside Mount Soledad and La Jolla Mesa; residents facing the southern shoreline of La Jolla are reporting substantial increases in noise from northbound departures; and from 10-11:30 p.m., “noise abatement” procedures for Ocean Beach and Point Loma are sending eastbound departures northward, far along the La Jolla shoreline before the jets either turn south to go around Point Loma and point their tail at La Jolla for the duration of their climb, or turn east over La Jolla itself at low altitude and high power. Over the past six months, La Jolla residents have lodged more complaints to the Airport Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) than any other community — in fact, the number of households filing a complaint from La Jolla was greater than the rest of San Diego, including Point Loma, combined. Yet, the ANAC and the Airport Noise Mitigation Program manager, have done nothing. Rather than address the source of the complaints, they discontinued the ability to lodge a complaint by e-mail. Rather than bring La Jolla to the table, the ANAC turned down a motion to add a La
Jolla representative to their committee. Rather than listen to the residents of La Jolla, they have ignored us. The La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) and La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) must demand that the Airport Authority and noise mitigation office address our issues. The planning committees of other communities affected by airport noise have representation on the ANAC; the LJTC and LJSA must also demand that the Airport Authority allow each to appoint an ANAC representative. Northbound departures must head more westerly, rather than hugging the coast, and perform their rapid climbs further from our shore; the prior southbound arrival path must be restored and flights fanned out rather than directed over a narrow channel; and after 10 p.m., eastbound flights must begin their turn south at an earlier point and not be allowed to fly over La Jolla.

Some think it’s time to retire Ché Café ‘art’ The front page of Section B in the April 27, La Jolla Light stunned me speechless! To see an almost half-page picture of a demented
inhuman murderer (Che Guevara) as is displayed on the UC San Diego campus at Che Café by students who know no better, but should know better, is beyond the pale. This sadistic murderer converted Havana’s La Cabana Fortress into Cuba’s firing-squad and torture central in January 1959. He was co-founder of a regime that tortured the most women political prisoners in the modern history of the Western Hemisphere; 35,150 women were jailed and tortured for political crimes. To idolize a sadistic killer, a man whose life is the total antithesis to all that is good and decent, is beyond belief! Shouldn’t a role model be an inspirational and uplifting personality?

be mostly males, come up on you fast and want you to speed up. To get away from one on my way to the bank, I pulled into a gas station and he followed me in there! I called 911, but police said there was nothing they could do. As a Village, we need to protect our community so it’s safe for residents. Speeders need to chill out and better plan their days so they don’t take it out on the rest of us. Let’s start reporting their license plates to police, and hopefully, the message will get out that residents of La Jolla have zero-tolerance for bad drivers in The Village.

City sidewalk for Hidden Valley denied A hearing officer ruled to approve a Site Development Project at 2488 Hidden Valley Road on April 26 at City Council Chambers (202 C St.), eliminating a condition imposed by the City of San Diego to build a sidewalk around the property. The project was first reviewed by the La

Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (PRC) and approved unanimously with the recommendation that the sidewalk not be constructed because “there are no other sidewalks on Hidden Valley Road. (Such) would require continuous retaining walls up to 8 feet high along the property line and would not be in character with the community.” At the hearing officer’s review, public testimony from PRC trustees Angie Preisendorfer and Janie Emerson touched on the public safety issues that would result from a one-property-long sidewalk in an area with barely any pedestrian infrastructure. Emerson stated, “Anybody who goes there sees what a blind cross it is.” Preisendorfer opined, “To add a sidewalk where there are no other connections is ridiculous.” City engineer Hoss Florezabihi, who spoke in favor of the sidewalk, said the safety hazard was precisely the reason that moved the City to request the infrastructure as part of the Site Development Project. “It’s a matter of time until a pedestrian gets hit (there) because of the lack of sidewalk,” he said, pointing out that there are other walkways in the area and the retaining wall necessary for construction would “only” be 5-feet-tall. Hearing officer Chris Larson conceded that pedestrian infrastructure on Hidden Valley Road “makes sense, but maybe as part of a larger project.”
City agrees reservoir project needs an EIR The San Diego Development Services Department has determined an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will be required for the La Jolla View Reservoir Project. The three-pronged project entails demolishing the existing above-ground La Jolla View Reservoir in La Jolla Heights Natural Park and decommissioned Exchange Place reservoir/pump station near the corner of Country Club Drive and Pepita Way; constructing one 3.1 million gallon underground tank to replace the two that will be demolished; and replacing the current 16-inch Country Club Drive pipeline with a 30-inch pipe. Community advisory groups such as La Jolla Communtiy Planning Association and La Jolla Parks & Beaches re-affirmed their requests for an EIR earlier this year, because an EIR identifies and examines the likely environmental effects of a proposed project, and proposes measures to avoid, mitigate or offset them. The City agreed to the EIR because of “new potential impacts to the surrounding community during construction operations not previously identified.” These include, according to an email from Civil Associate Engineer Ed Fordan, “Night work for the placement of concrete at the new reservoir and water main installations … scheduled for approximately 20 working days and generate new, potentially significant and unavoidable impacts to the community.” La Jolla Parks & Beaches member Patrick Ahern said the board would have the opportunity to assist with the EIR, which is expected to be complete by Fall 2018.
UCSD meeting set to explain expansion A meeting has been scheduled to discuss the scope of a new UC San Diego project, dubbed the “North Torrey Pines Living Learning Neighborhood,” 4:30 p.m. Monday, May 8 at the Faculty Club, 9500 Gilman Drive (at the end of Muir Lane).

Ask the Psychiatrist:
The La Jolla Crossroads apartment complex pool at 9085 Judicial Drive in University City is closed off by police caution tape May 2. FROM SHOOTING, A1 different entrances by the apartment complex management team offered community support through counselors available to residents, confidentially and at no cost. Licensed trauma specialists were on site beginning 6 p.m. May 1. The fliers also read: “The San Diego Police Department has secured our site, and you may stay or return to your home at any time.” There are 1,500 rental units at La Jolla Crossroads. Two gofundme campaigns have been established; one to cover hospital expenses of shooting victims and a second to cover Clark’s funeral expenses. The petition, written by her mother, Michelle Fuget, reads, “She is forever my daughter. She is forever her daughters’ mother. She is forever in our hearts. Thank you in advance for any and all help in our family’s time of need and for respecting this time of grief.” Demetrius Griffin identified himself as the author of the petition to raise funds for the 10 surgeries and related procedures performed by medical personnel on the victims. He was a witness to the tragedy, which he described in these details: “A white male entered the pool area, around 45 years of age, and sat down near the exit. … The birthday boy went forth to invite him into our party. The conversation did not last long … about 30 seconds before the gunman pulled a handgun out of his waistband. As he raised his gun, he shot the birthday boy two times in the chest. Additionally, he began to shoot at the crowd. He shot one young lady in her left breast and her left arm, another young lady was shot in her leg three times, and a younger male was shot in his left leg. This exhausted his ammunition from that clip, little did we know, there was more ammunition in his backpack. He reloaded his weapon, and began to fire more gunshots.” San Diego Police Department learned that the shooter, 49-year-old Peter Selis, who was shot dead by police officers, was despondent over a recent breakup. “He took a cell phone, called his ex-girlfriend and told her had shot two people and police had arrived on the scene. He continued talking to her, he wanted his girlfriend to listen in. The victims just happened to be present,” said Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman at a press conference the next day, where she added there were “zero indicators that the victims

Flower bouquets near the shooting scene with the message ‘Not on our watch ... Resist Hate’ were targeted for their race.” That statement was contended by community members and crime victims, who allege that the shooter was white and the victims were black or Latino. A young woman present at the scene, a member of the Marine Corps, told TV cameras she had felt “hate” from the shooter, who according to her testimony told a white person to “leave or die here.” Police have revised their statement, adding that one of the shooting victims, initially identified as African American, was white. The remaining victims are three African-American females, two African-American males and a Hispanic male. A third African-American male sustained a broken bone while fleeing the area, and a Hispanic female security guard was shot at by Selis, “but not struck.” Alliance San Diego, an institution striving to change marginalizing policies by empowering communities, said in a statement that Police Chief Zimmerman had ruled out racial motivations too soon. “Chief Zimmerman made these statements less than 24 hours after the incident and while the investigation remains pending,” the statement reads. Area resident Max Pete told La Jolla Light he was affected by the tragedy, “but I’m not going to stop going to my apartment complex pool. I’m just struck that this (type of crime) can happen anywhere.” ■ To make a financial contribution: • The gofundme for medical expenses is gofundme.com/3q2z86o • The gofundme to help cover Monique Clark’s funeral expenses is gofundme.com/3q2xigo
Do I Have A Drinking Problem? Alcohol Use Fact vs. Fiction
In the movies, the character with a drinking problem is easy to spot: sullen and estranged, gregarious, or combative. Outside of Hollywood fiction, however, problem drinkers often look like our neighbors, co-workers, loved ones, and friends. They may be highly respected in their careers, beloved by their families, and appear to drink only when socially appropriate. The outward signs and symptoms of a drinking problem aren’t always obvious, especially when our view of alcohol-use disorders is colored by stereotypes. Below, Dr. Krista Roybal, Executive Medical Director at True Life Center for Wellbeing addresses several common misconceptions about alcohol use. Myth: “I enjoy a few glasses of wine each night to unwind from work. My wife seems to think I’m an alcoholic. That can’t be true.”
A problematic drinking habit often begins innocently: as a way to relax or transition from work to home, as the most common drug people use to fall asleep, to have sex, to reduce social anxiety, and to enjoy themselves. So before we ask loved ones to stop drinking altogether, we must first understand what role alcohol is playing in their lives. Drinking problems are defined not only by how much and how often someone drinks, but also by the effect drinking has on a person’s health, home, social, legal, or work life. It’s helpful to avoid shame-inducing terms like “alcoholic,” but if your drinking is having a real and negative impact on one or more of your primary relationships, a wise next step would be to talk with your doctor or therapist in a supportive environment about the role alcohol is playing in your life. Myth: “My college-aged daughter confided to me that she has blacked out after drinking too much at a party. But that’s just part of the college experience, not an indication of a larger problem.” I want to first commend your courage for even exploring the idea that your child
could have a problem with alcohol. For many parents, underlying fear keeps them in denial. Binge-drinking (defined as 4 or more alcoholic drinks within a few hours for women, 5 or more for men) is a part of the college experience for more than 40% of students, according to some estimates. My concern for those students, and for your daughter, is safety. The dangers of binge-drinking include alcohol poisoning, unsafe sex, sexual assault, drunk driving, legal or academic consequences, and serious or fatal injury. Binge-drinking could certainly be an indication of an alcohol use disorder. It could also be a symptom of an underlying mental health issue like anxiety or depression. It would be in your family’s best interest to continue this conversation with a professional who can help you make informed decisions about wisely and compassionately supporting your daughter.
Myth: “Alcoholics just lack willpower. With discipline, someone could easily get their drinking under control on their own.” This is the kind of myth that breaks my heart, because it might prevent someone from seeking or receiving much-needed help. Alcohol Use Disorder is a biological, brain-based disease. It is my job as a physician, and our society’s job as a whole, to treat addiction with the compassion and medical attention it deserves. Consider a disease like cancer or diabetes; you would never suggest that someone battling those illnesses should simply will him or herself to overcome the illness overnight. Additionally, sudden and severe withdrawal could cause painful physical symptoms leading to hospitalization or death. In my experience, so many people suffering from addiction want to change, but they don’t know how. Safe, supportive, and effective treatment is the bridge between the desire to change and the ability to change. If you have questions about alcohol use, or want to learn more about treatment options for addiction or mental health issues, please call True Life Center at 858-384-4535 or visit truelifewellbeing.com.

Mary Betty Fisher
October 5, 1918 - March 7, 2017 La JOLLa — Mary Betty Fisher has left us, at age 98. She was a “grande dame”, in the best sense of the phrase. at 5’9”, she was very tall for her generation and she owned it: big dramatic hats and high heels were staples in her wardrobe. When she lost the sight in one eye late in life, she rocked her eye patch with the panache of a very proper pirate. Gently raised on the south side of Chicago by her parents, Howard H. and Dorothy Hubbard Wikoff, she attended University of arizona for two years and then finished her degree at University of Southern California (USC). Learning new things fascinated her, and she was well-read, cerebral, and an excellent listener. She loved to travel and forged ahead by
herself when other companions weren’t available. On two separate occasions, she took a flat in a European city, venturing out on local transportation to explore the countryside and creating glorious meals from the local produce. Born before women won the right to vote, she took that privilege seriously and spent many years as a
member of the League of Women Voters. She had a liberal bent and did not hesitate to proclaim her stance on any issue. She married Robert “Buck” Fisher in 1940, also a USC graduate, and had two children: Jill and Matthew. In an interesting twist on motherhood, she contrived to make each one feel that the other was her favorite. She felt that kept them in line, though it didn’t. Life for her had its fun moments. For five years, she and Buck lived aboard the K’Thanga, a 92-foot motor yacht in Newport Harbor. Upkeep of the teak decks was hard work, but she often chortled, “It beats vacuuming!” afterward, they settled in their home in Laguna Beach, which remains in the family today. She remained faithful to
her church (Episcopal) and to her beloved Chicago Cubs. In the end, on learning that the Cubs had won the World Series, she declared that now “she could die happy.” Just so. Mary Betty is survived by her children, Jill Fisher Holmes (Michael) and Matthew Fisher (Dale); her grandchildren, Matthew Palmer, amy Holmes Harvey (Matthew), and andrew Fisher (Nancy); and her all-boy squad of great-grandchildren, alex, Spencer, Dashiell, Jones and Michael. Services will be private. The family would like to thank the assisted living staff at White Sands and Mr. Kay at Wine Time for making Mary Betty’s last years more comfortable.

particularly to her church, La Jolla Presbyterian, where she sang in the choir and volunteered for many years. Due to her love of books, she also volunteered at the La Jolla Library, devoting many hours to the overseeing book sales and donations. In the late 80’s, Barbara returned to teaching at the Evans School, where she remained for several years. She was re-married to Thomas Greaves, and they were together until his passing in May of 2006.

area. Her style, grace and love of life was a magnet for long-time friendships, from all walks of life.

A brownish-film and foam cover the surf at Little Point, April 28.
New ‘sewage leak’ reported; City says no, it’s microorganisms BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN The morning of Friday, April 28, WindanSea resident Zeke Woolley was walking his dog when he saw a dark pool of water in the rocks in front of the Vista de la Playa beach access. “It was a dark pool with foam and some debris floating in it. It was sewage,” he said. At the time, the low tide hadn’t reached the rocks and the liquid was concentrated. One week before, on Thursday, April 20 the City detected a 1,350-gallon sewage leak at the adjacent Fern Glen pump station, and closed the beach for three days while the material dissipated in the water. Woolley said he informed the City of the suspicious-looking water. The City confirmed staff had gone out to investigate his claim. Wastewater Collection Division deputy director Agnes Generoso said, “It is not spilling and there has been no spill since the incident on April 20.” The La Jolla Light visited the spot April 28 (see photo) and found a brown layer and foam material covering parts of the surf by the Vista de la Playa beach access, but high tide had reached the rocks where Woolley reported seeing the “sewage.” A few feet away, security guard Cody Hardesty sat in a plastic chair on the sand, as he does three days per week. He said the color of the ocean was no stranger to him. “The water has been looking like that, give or take, three weeks before they even put on the signs to close the beach (because of the sewage leak).” The City said the color of the water was caused by microorganisms, such as phytoplankton and ciliates. In an e-mail, City staff said an investigation was carried out as early as April 22 about the water color,
and City marine biologist Wendy Enright had water samples taken during the sewage spill tested for microorganisms. “All three samples from station at the mixing zone showed evidence of phytoplankton but the most recent sample from (April 22) had the highest density and diversity. Without refrigeration, mortality rates are pretty high for these guys,” the e-mail reads. The Light contacted Surfrider Foundation senior scientist Rick Wilson, who said the microorganism explanation is “possible. I’ve seen foamy brown material in the ocean caused by a breakdown of plankton or seaweed decomposing, there’s no way to know without testing that water.” San Diego County Environmental Health Land & Water Quality division program coordinator Keith Kezer said the last time water was tested at WindanSea, April 26, there were undetectable levels of bacteria in the sample. He said the difference between a sewage leak and foam caused by microorganisms, is the smell. Woolley, who reported the incident, added, “I know the difference, plankton doesn’t smell. And it stunk. It reeked.” By the time this reporter made it to the Vista de la Playa beach access, there was no smell. Wilson explained that, sometimes, high numbers of plankton can be related to sewage. “When we get red tides which are plankton blooms, that is thought in many cases can be fueled by a sewage leak, the nitrogen compound that can be in the sewage can of acts as fertilizer to the ocean,” he said. “But that’s speculation because there are a lot of causes that may cause plankton to bloom.”

Las Patronas previews 2017 Jewel Ball ‘Taking Flight’ BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON he 2017 Las Patronas Jewel Ball, themed ‘Taking Flight’ is preparing for takeoff Saturday, Aug. 5 at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club, 2000 Spindrift Drive.

Meet La Jolla children’s librarian Angie Stava BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN a Jolla Riford Library children’s librarian Angie Stava grew up in Northville, Minnesota, moved to San Diego in 2011 after a short period living abroad, and landed at Riford Library in 2016. She’s a combination of Peter Pan’s Tinkerbell and Beauty and the Beast’s Belle. Her eyes shine when she talks children and books, and she gets so excited all her sentences come out with exclamation marks at the end. Her unique attire has bought her a (good) reputation at the Riford Library.
L MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN
Angie Stava, children’s librarian at La Jolla Riford Library
What makes La Jolla Riford library special?
“It’s the sense of community. I’ve worked
at libraries all across the country, and there’s nothing quite like the small town feeling of La Jolla, which I love (laughs). It’s something that, for me, coming from a small town in the Midwest is really special.”
What’s your job like on a daily basis?
“I’m in charge of planning all the children’s and teen’s programs, so I do a lot of work with outreach. I reach out to our community partners to see how the library can help with student success, and of course, I get to order books, which makes me very happy. My favorite part of my job is that I get to recommend a lot of great books for the right reader.”
How do you match books, kids?
“That can be a little bit of magic and mystery (laughs). It’s interesting trying to figure out what a kid likes to read, what they’re looking for and what they’ve read in the past, so that sometimes can give me clues. And then, we look into the shelves together. I make some recommendations, give a little preview about the different books and then, hopefully, there will be something there that catches their eye. So it’s always really rewarding when they come back and say, ‘I loved it! I need more!’ ”
What do you do for fun?
“I love to visit National Parks. My husband SEE ANGIE STAVA, B23

The worst idea ever
F
La Jolla Cultural Partners
or reasons unclear to me, airlines keep revisiting the idea of allowing passengers to make Wi-Fi calls on their cell phones during flight. Meanwhile, according to the International Air Transport Association, cases of air rage increased 16.4 percent from 2014 to 10,854 (from 9,316). In 1994, only 1,132 such cases were noted. And you want to add phone calls? Has someone been breathing too many jet fuel fumes? Let me predict that if Wi-Fi calls were permitted on airplanes, the air rage incidents would increase 10,000 percent. Possible violence? No, guaranteed. Especially by me. Olof should start saving for my bail right now. I’m not even particularly tolerant about cell phone abuse even on the ground. Anyone who has ever lunched with me or been a dinner guest at my home knows if they answer their phone at my table, it had better be because the donor for their liver transplant finally came through. Don’t get me wrong. Cell phones are wonderful inventions when used appropriately. But I have friends who insist that people “expect to be able to reach them at any time.” “Oh, no!” I reply in horror. “Are you one of those people who answer their phone at the
symphony?” They insist they would never be so rude as to do that. “So your dentist is willing to stop while he’s in the middle of a filling to let you chat?” Oh, no, of course not. Not during a medical or dental appointment. OK, I say, so consider me the symphony and the medical/dental establishment all rolled into one. And they’ll reply, “But it’s different. You’re a friend.” Inga: “Not anymore!” I always tell them I’m going to get them one of those newfangled phones that has voicemail. It’s amazing! It answers the call and takes a message for you! You can even call back later when you’re not at lunch! But the same people who abuse cell phones on the ground will be guaranteed to abuse them in the air. For some people, the ring of a cell phone has the curious effect of transporting them to another dimension where they become the Anointed One in a private universe of dispensable deaf mutes. Everyone around them ceases to exist. It’s bad enough at airports to be squashed into waiting areas listening to people conducting business. Or worse, not
conducting business. Just droning on to everyone they know. They have nothing to say, which does not prevent them from saying it. The only saving grace is that you know that once the plane takes off, they’ll have to turn it off for the next three thousand miles. But what if they didn’t? Carriers would apparently be required to inform passengers when they make their reservations that cell phone calls are permitted on that flight so they “can make other plans.” Seriously? Like most business travelers have any choice on what flights they’re on? Or you’re supposed to pay double and fly a route with two stopovers to avoid a non-stop that allows cell phone calls? If that happens, technology will have officially trumped humanity. United (no surprise) is apparently one airline considering in-air calls. That’s OK with us since we’ve long since cut up their credit card. And that was BEFORE they started “reaccommodating” (their word) paying passengers by physically dragging them off their planes. Hard to imagine they used to be our preferred airline. But there could be some definite entertainment value in all this. I predict there will be a YouTube channel solely devoted to in-air cell phone brawls videotaped by gleeful fellow passengers. Personally, the only way I can see this in-air phone thing working is that people who want to use a cell phone on the flight have to indicate it in advance and be assigned to a special cell phone row just as there used to be smoking rows. As we all know, people who talk on cell phones tend to talk much louder than their regular “inside” voices so they can be heard

Let me predict that if Wi-Fi calls were permitted on airplanes, the air rage incidents would increase 10,000 percent. over the din around them. Cell phone users expect a quiet, compliant audience on either side of them — because, of course, it’s all about them — but I love imagining the scenario where a whole row of cell phone users are speaking louder and louder to be able to be overheard over the conversations of the people right next to them. I foresee lots of glaring, lots of demands to the other folks to talk more softly. Escalating hostility. Complaints to the flight attendants. Hopefully, he or she would then have the capability to push a button that would eject the whole row out at 35,000 feet. This fantasy keeps me going. So airlines: Please do not consider this. It is a really really bad idea. But if you do, get ready to install a first-aid kit in every row. — Inga’s lighthearted looks at life appear regularly in La Jolla Light.

Bad news looks good in Historical Society’s Climate Change show LET’S REVIEW
Marcella Paz Luna Rossel’s lifesize mosaic ‘Dust,’ part of the ‘Weather on Steroids’ show, at La Jolla Historical Society through May 21.
PHILIPP SCHOLZ RITTERMANN
‘Dissolution,’ another lifesize mosaic by Marcella Paz Luna Rossel
BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT On Earth Day, April 22, thousands of scientists, doctors, engineers and others took to the streets in Washington, D.C., joined by many thousands more in cities around the world. They were all taking part in a global March for Science, proclaiming their support for scientific research and their response to climate change deniers everywhere. Among the signs they carried: “Make Earth Cool Again!” and “There is no Planet B!” Here at home, La Jolla Historical Society has taken another approach with their current show “Weather on Steroids: The Art of Climate Change Science.” They invited 11 artists to meet with and be inspired by the work of 11 scientists, 10 from Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) and one from USD’s Department of Environmental & Ocean Studies. The result is a striking display of what’s been happening to our environment and how research and public awareness might help to stem the tide. This is not just a didactic exhibition. It’s a thoroughly artful one, on view through May 21 at the historic Wisteria Cottage on Prospect Street that is now home to the Historical Society’s gallery. As curator Tatiana Sizonenko, who has a Ph.D. in Art History from UC San Diego and now teaches and curates shows there, wrote in the spring issue of “Timekeeper,” the Historical Society magazine: “The vision for this exhibition is to bring together works that are beautiful, accessible and thought-provoking, not to be dismissed as merely art, agitprop or science. Stimulating visual objects merging art and scientific research… can incite a quest for understanding as to what must be done (to
address) the problem of climate change.” Also, she noted, the exhibit underscores the artist’s role in society, “what art can do and what all of us ... could do in response to the challenges of our day and age.” Here are a few of the highlights:
‘Dust, Dissolution, Ablaze’ Marcella Paz Luna Rossel, artist
The two mosaic figures leaning against the wall to your right are the first things that may catch your eye as you enter the cottage. Composed of local sand, dirt, pebbles, animal bones, seeds, bits of wood, recycled glass and ceramics, they are lifesize females, stand-ins for both Mother Earth and the artist. One is surrounded by a drought-scape of cracked mud and desert sand (“Dust”), the other is immersed in a sea of flood-waters (“Dissolution”). The figures reflect Rossel’s experiences in recent travels, feeling the impact of El Niño and La Niña, with record-high temperatures, torrential rains and devastating floods.
‘Confluences’ Cheryl Leonard, artist
This engaging, interactive installation by a San Francisco-based composer/performer/instrument builder deals with the erosion of California’s sandy beaches due to longterm El Niño cycles and other destructive climatic events. Composed of glass, wood, sand, dried kelp, string and fabric, it includes microphones, headphones, an iPod and a mixing board so visitors can listen to a soundscape created from recordings Leonard made along the California coast, often using instruments she made out of found materials, like a kelp flute. Visitors can pump up the sounds by pouring sand into hanging vessels and setting pendulums in motion, which mimics effects of ocean currents on beaches.

He’s got one foot on a book of equations — a solid block of scientific data he’s completely ignoring, along with the globe’s receding Arctic ice and rising oceans.

Two concerts left in La Jolla Symphony & Chorus season FROM LJS&C REPORTS In October, when La Jolla Symphony & Chorus (LJS&C) opened its six-concert 62nd season, Music Director Steven Schick said he built each program around music that composers wrote at the rich midpoint of their careers. “Music from the Middle of Life” offers its second-from-the-last concert of the season, May 6-7 at Mandeville Auditorium on UC San Diego campus, with guest conductor Michael Gerdes leading a perennial favorite, “Pictures at an Exhibition.” The music was composed when Modest Mussorgsky was 35, which should have been the midpoint of a great career, but, tragically, he died only seven years later. Also on the program, LJS&C 2015 Young Artists first-place winner Carlos Aguilar will play Carl Nielsen’s “Flute Concerto,” a very playful (and a very funny) piece of music, and Canadian composer Vivian Fung will offer “Biennale Snapshots,” a colorful musical response to works of public art from the 2015 Vancouver Art Biennale. During the season finale, June 10-11, LJS&C Choral Director David Chase will conclude his 43-year tenure as Choral Director with a program for orchestra and chorus inspired by love in its many faces. The audience will hear Hector Berlioz’s “Beatrice and Benedict,” a take on Shakespeare’s “Much Ado about Nothing”; Arnold Schoenberg’s macabre love-story, “Verklärte Nacht”; and Samuel Barber’s “The Lovers,” which shocked Philadelphians at its premiere in 1971.
COURTESY
David Chase will end his 43-year tenure as LJS&C Choral Director at the final concerts of the season, June 3-4 at Mandeville Auditorium. LJS&C was established in 1954. The non-profit, 501(c)(3) corporation is comprised of volunteer musicians from all walks of life, including community members, UCSD students, staff and faculty, as well as professional musicians. ■ IF YOU GO: The concerts are 7:30 p.m. Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays in Mandeville Auditorium on the UCSD campus. A free pre-concert lecture is given by the conductor an hour prior to concert times. Tickets are $15-$29. (858) 534-4637. lajollasymphony.com

Government can help cover camp costs Parents should inquire into whether the camp participates in income-eligible subsidy programs, for instance through Title XX. For day camps: ■ A Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account allows parents to be reimbursed on a pre-tax basis for child care or adult dependent care expenses for qualified dependents that are necessary to allow parents to work, look for work, or to attend school full time. Visit the FSA Feds Web site for more information. ■ In certain circumstances, day care expenses, including transportation by a care
provider, may be considered dependent care services and paid with pre-tax dollars. Visit the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for more information. ■ Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit. The IRS allows an income tax credit of up to $6,000 of dependent care expenses if you have two or more dependents (up to $3,000 for one dependent). The amount of the credit is based on your adjusted gross income and applies only to your federal taxes. This applies to qualifying day camp expenses. Visit the FSA Feds Web site for more information. —acacamps.org
10 QUESTIONS
Jeanne Jones celebrates all life’s goodness What brought you to La Jolla?
I was living in Mexico City where I owned a weight-loss business, creating all of my own recipes. I wanted to turn them into a healthy cookbook. However, in order for it to be published, I was required to move back to the United States. I grew up in Newport Beach and had always loved coming to La Jolla. Since this was just an interim move for me, I decided to move to La Jolla before moving back to Mexico City. Instead I got married and stayed here and have never regretted it.
What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? That would be most of the roads both in La Jolla and San Diego.

Who or what inspires you?
I am constantly inspired by the brave men and women who serve in the military and who put their lives at risk to keep us free. This includes their families and those in our community that support them. For this reason, I am a proud supporter of the USO San Diego, an organization that strengthens America’s military service members by keeping them connected to family, home and country, throughout their service to our nation. A little known fact about the USO is that it is not supported by any government funds. Therefore, hopefully, many people will want to attend the USO San Diego’s 76th Annual Stars and Stripes Gala, “Land of the Free … Because of the Brave,” Saturday, May 20 at the San Diego Marriott Marquis & Marina. This event raises funds to support our local USO San Diego.
If you hosted a dinner party, whom (living or deceased) would you invite?
I would invite Audrey and Ted Geisel, Escoffier Julia Child, Jeanne Jones President Teddy Roosevelt, author Vince Flynn, my husband Don Breitenberg and myself.
COURTESY
What are you currently reading?
I’m reading “Bel Canto,” by Ann Patchett, who will be the speaker for the Dinner in the Library at Geisel Library, UC San Diego on Friday, Sept. 8.
What is it that you most dislike? Dishonest people.
What is your prized possession? Curiosity.
What do you do for fun?
I like to travel and go to plays and movies.

EVENT BRIEFS Balboa Park museums, food trucks to stay open late on summer Fridays Select museums will stay open late as part of the “Balboa Park After Dark” program, 5-8 p.m. on Fridays, May 26-Sept. 1. In addition, hungry museum-goers can enjoy family-friendly entertainment and food from a rotating selection of food trucks parked on the Plaza de Panama and Prado walkway. balboapark.org/afterdark The museums open until 8 p.m. on Fridays include: Japanese Friendship Garden and Mingei International
Museum. A special $5 admission price will be charged at San Diego Art Institute, Spanish Village, San Diego Museum of Man, San Diego Natural History Museum (the NAT), The San Diego Museum of Art and Fleet Science Center. At the Science Center, there will be half-priced IMAX films at 7 p.m. in the Heikoff Giant Dome Theater in May and June and on Fridays in July and August the museum will be open late for video game madness in Game Masters.
Photographer Catherine Opie headlines the next Axline Lecture The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) and The San Diego Museum of Art will present internationally renowned photographer Catherine Opie as the featured speaker for the 17th annual Axline Lecture, 7 p.m. Thursday, May 11, at the Irwin M. Jacobs Qualcomm Hall, 5775 Morehouse Drive, San Diego Opie’s work both documents and gives voice to America's communities and the landscapes they inhabit. Working between conceptual and documentary approaches to image making, she examines familiar genres — portraiture, landscape and studio photography — with surprising uses of serial images, unexpected compositions, and the pursuit of radically different subject matter. Press material announcing the lecture states: “Opie came to prominence in the 1990s with portraits of her friends and
lovers in the queer community. These intimate and direct portraits were followed by a series of subtly toned views of sweeping freeway overpasses. As much as these two bodies of work differ in content, they remind us, as do all of Opie's subsequent works, of ways in which we are interdependent.” Tickets at mcasd.org are $5 for members of MCASD and The San Diego Museum of Art (and students, seniors, military personnel); $10 for non-members Since 2000, MCASD and SDMA have partnered to present the Axline Lecture in honor of Jackie and Rea Axline, trustees and supporters of both museums who bequeathed endowments to each in 1999. Hosted in alternate years by each museum, this annual event offers an opportunity to thank current museum Members, donors and supporters.

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
Lisa. She is survived by granddaughter, Toya Holiday; greatgranddaughters, Saylor, Jasper and Mercy; niece, Stephanie Hanks; cousins, Arlene “Florence” Falk and Richard Gross; sister-in-law, Evelyn Anderson; sonin-law, Anthony Bila; and grandson-in-law, Brandy Holiday. Sonia possessed a natural elegance and fiery temper, intrepid honesty and laser like intelligence. Returned now to her lifelong companion. The love remains.

Walking the Path
Church decorates Muirlands labyrinth for Easter BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON Cornerstone Church of San Diego Coastal Campus embellished the existing labyrinth at Muirlands Middle School as part of its Easter festivities, April 16. Cornerstone Church uses the school’s auditorium at 1056 Nautilus St. for its Sunday Services. The church lined the circular labyrinth with 140 Easter Lilies and encouraged attendees and visitors of all faiths to walk the path, in addition to participating in an egg hunt and other activities. “A labyrinth is often viewed as a metaphor for a path of life,” said Robert Wertz, director of art ministry at Cornerstone. “The way people walk through a labyrinth often reflects how they walk through life — some people hop over the lines and try to get ahead, others walk it all through slowly. But walking a labyrinth can also be a form of active, contemplative meditation.” For Church purposes, the labyrinth also represents “the path that Jesus Christ walked for humankind’s salvation,” Wertz added. Throughout the day, 250 people visited the church, he said, and while many just viewed the labyrinth, at least 75 people walked it. The labyrinth is designed for middle school students, so the lane is only 18 inches wide and 30 feet in diameter. Nevertheless, Wertz said, “We got many positive responses, and for some, this was the first time they walked a labyrinth.” He said the church may

and District 1 City Council member Barbara Bry, who later told La Jolla Light, “I enjoyed visiting the Easter Labyrinth and thank Robert Wertz for the work that he is doing to

Celebrate Mother’s Day with a liquid brunch
T
o honor moms at all stages of mothering, here are some calming cocktails with a twist, along with some soothing smoothies, for fun brunch food pairings that the kids can help prepare for their special big girl on Sunday, May 14.
Bloody Mary, Quite Contrary
For moms who enjoy savory sips, nothing wets the whistle like a classic Bloody Mary, blending vodka, tomato juice, hot sauce and Worcestershire with a celery stirring stick. Creative mixologists across the land have tweaked this version making more combinations than mothers’ hair colors. There’s a Bloody-free Mary without the tomato juice, and a hickory-infused rendition with honey-glazed bacon stirring strips. Asian-inspired Marys include wasabi mustard, chili oil, and sriracha, oyster and soy sauces, while south of the border versions amp up the heat with crushed jalapenos and chipotle sauce, along with fresh lime juice and cilantro. The Dirty Bloody Mary (like the Dirty Martini) blends olive brine into the cocktail, a detoxifying version swaps out tomato juice for beet juice, while farm-to-table Mary combines fresh pureed Heirloom tomatoes with assorted seasonal herbs.
Frittatas and quiches of all manners, hash skillets, assorted smoked fish, and a prosciutto and melon platter nicely complement the Bloody Mary.
Blender Babes
Silky smoothie combinations can suit a wide variety of moms’ palates, dietary restrictions and preferences: • For vegan options, use pureed fruits and juices or almond, coconut, soy, hazelnut, hemp, oat or other non-dairy drinks as a creamy base; • Go nutty with a protein-rich boost from tahini or almond, cashew, hazelnut or peanut butters blended in creamy almond milk with a dollop of fruit preserves; • Concoct a fiber-rich, probiotic powerhouse with kefir yoghurt or fermented black tea known as kombucha, along with a mix of fresh berries, and a sprinkle of hearty wheat germ; • Get your goat with sheep milk or yoghurt, a splash of tangerine juice, chestnut honey, and fresh shredded ginger; • Go green by adding a handful of fresh kale, spinach, basil, cucumber, frozen peas, avocado or a scoop of matcha green tea powder for an antioxidant oomph; • Spike the smoothie with your favorite
Mimosa Mamas
The quintessential drink of Mother’s Day is the classic Mimosa, which simply blends fresh squeezed orange and tangerine juices with Champagne. For a refreshing change, add a splash of St. Germain or elderberry liqueur, or up the ante with a double dose of orange from Grand Marnier or orange bitters. Concoct a liquid Creamsicle with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream or gelato into the cocktail. Or swap out the orange juice for zippy pineapple, tart cranberry, refreshing watermelon, or lip-puckering grapefruit juice. For a sweeter mimosa, add a pinch of coconut sugar, agave syrup or orange blossom honey. For a more potent one add a dose of tequila. Finally, for eye candy float fresh raspberries, pomegranate seeds, strawberry slices or mint leaves on top.
The Bell(ini) of the Ball
This sparkling wine cocktail with a sassy Mediterranean flair is an attention grabber at any celebration. Named after the Renaissance painter Giovanni Bellini, the original concoction used Italian sparkling wine called Prosecco, while the Americanized version opts for Champagne. The bubbly is simply blended with fresh peach nectar or puree in a Champagne flute. Garnish with peach slices soaked in lemon juice to prevent browning. To jazz up the classic Bellini, add some fresh basil, or replace the peach puree with other seasonal
Tropical Chia Smoothie ■ Ingredients: 1-cup almond or coconut milk; 1/2 cup frozen mango; 1/2 frozen banana; 1/4-cup chia seeds; 1 tablespoon honey; 1/4 teaspoon grated ginger; a few drops almond extract. ■ Method: Puree ingredients in a blender except seeds. Pour into mason jar and stir in seeds. Let sit for 10 minutes, stirring again. Refrigerate until mixture thickens. Garnish with banana coins on rim. — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com
beauties like rhubarb, strawberries or plums. Mom’s Day favorites, such as Meyer lemon pancakes stuffed with ricotta cheese, Crème Brule French toast, pecan sticky buns, mascarpone crepes smothered in seasonal berries, or assorted scones with fig or chestnut preserves pair nicely with Smoothies, Mimosas and Bellinis.

The event will feature silent and live art auctions, a show by Fashion Week San Diego designers, a menu from Executive Chef JoJo Ruiz of Lionfish, and music by DJ Hevrock. The online auction begins May 2 and ends at the gala.

pieces up for bid. Proceeds will benefit SF and local artists with proceeds split 50/50. Said Allison Andrews of Fashion Week San Diego, “top eco-conscious designers will unveil an exclusive collection made from recycled materials. They are honored to create original works of fashion art and not-so-typical textiles to showcase the SSD programs.” Tickets are $100 for SF members and $125 for non-members at sandiego.surfrider.org/artgala/ (Note: a VIP Reception will be held 6:30 to 9 p.m., May 1 at Aaron Chang’s Solana Beach Gallery.

Over half will not finish high school,” said Deacon Jim Vargas, CEO of Father Joe’s Villages. An estimated 1.6 million kids in America are homeless, and 380,000 of those are under age 18 — 2,000 of them in San Diego.

Do you like to cook?
FROM ANGIE STAVA, B1
“Yes, I love it! I like to bake sweets, scones, cookies … the Midwest is known for unhealthy sweets. (I say) everything in moderation, except for books.”
and I hike a lot, as often as we can. Since I work inside with books all day, on the weekends, I love to be outside (laughs). I grew up going to all the different National Parks; my parents were big on taking us on educational vacations. Most recently, I went to the Channel Islands National Park, where we went snorkeling, and it was fabulous!”
What was your college major?
How do you chose your attire?
“I love anything with animals on it, or anything that will make a kid come up to me and say ‘Wow!’ Today I don’t have any animals ‘on,’ I have computers and typewriters. My favorite dress is a newspaper print with articles about cats on it. I wear it all the time.”
Do you plan on having children of your own? “I love children so much, so of course, I’d love to have kids in the future, but right now, when I host storytime, it kind of feels like I have 25 children of my own, so it’s really nice! (laughs)”
When you were a kid, what did you want to be as a grown-up?
“I told people I wanted to be an opera singer, not because I can sing, I can’t sing, but because I knew that opera singers got to dress up in really cool costumes (laughs). I think my mom was a little confused at first, but when it came to light that what I really wanted to do was dress up, she understood that better.”
What’s your favorite book?
“It changes every day! (laughs) My favorite book that recently came out, is “The Girl Who Drank the Moon,” by Kelly Barnhill. It’s about a girl who is abandoned as a baby and gets saved by a good witch, and the witch feeds her moonlight and magic, so she
Riford Library children’s librarian Angie Stava begins a storytime book. has all this bubbled up magic inside of her. It’s really cool!”
Please describe your upbringing.
“I have an older sister, and we grew up in the middle of nowhere, kind of in the woods, so we spent hours and hours exploring outside. I think that’s where I got my original curiosity. And then we didn’t have a television, so I grew up loving going to the library. I went to the library with my sister almost every day for 18 years. We loved it! I was the kind of kid who would hide a flashlight in my sheets and start reading after ‘lights out’ (laughs). My sister did, too! And my sister is a children’s librarian, too.”
What’s your relationship with technology?
“I try to keep my life simple, but I do a lot of work with the library’s Instagram and
MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN
Facebook accounts and that kind of thing. I’m not in social media myself that much. However, I’m obsessed with all public radio podcasts. ‘Serial’ was amazing, also ‘Invisibilia,’ ‘TED radio hour’ — all of those, and their original ‘This American Life.’ ”
Do you like music?
“I play the ukulele at storytime, so I love campy tunes and children’s songs, acoustic music and a capella.”
What’s your favorite color?
“My favorite color is yellow! I love yellow. The color of sunshine. In Harry Potter, one of the characters, Luna Lovegood, described it as ‘the sun color, the color of joy.’ ”
Who’s your favorite Harry Potter character?
“Of course, Hermione. She should have been The Chosen One! She would have had Voldemort figured out at Year 1.”
“For my undergrad degree, I was a history major because I love stories, and sometimes you just can’t beat the stories from history. And then I got my Master’s degree in library studies, with a concentration in children’s librarianship. I knew I had to make money. My parents had never gone to college, so they told my sister and I, ‘When you go to college, you have to pick some career that you can get a job in.’ I knew I wasn’t going to be a doctor or a scientist, and one of my sister’s friends, who was a librarian said, ‘You girls, this is crazy! Why don’t you just become librarians? You love the library, people, children … there you go!’ I said, ‘You’re right!’ ”
What do you love best about the library?
“I love that there’s always something here waiting to be discovered. You can go in a library and find the thing you’re looking for, but you can end up walking out with 40 other things you never even knew you needed. My favorite part of the library is encouraging the love of reading in children and their families. I have a love of reading, but some kids maybe not, they struggle, or families don’t have that tradition. So I love to get kids excited about reading.”
What’s the most boring part of your job?
“When you have to take care of the building, like there’s no hot water, or there’s a leak … and that’s something you don’t learn in library school (laughs).”

SPONSORED COLUMNS PANCHO DEWHURST GDC Construction 858.551.5222
Preserving Your Historical Property At GDC Construction, we know it is important to preserve the history and charm of our unique community of La Jolla. With so many architectural gems in this “jewel” we call home, we passionately believe in historical preservation. Over the years, we have worked on dozens of preservation remodels of historical properties. These include: my grandfather’s remodel of the La Jolla landmark the Athenaeum in 1956, which now serves as an art and music library; my father’s 1984 remodel of the YMCA La Jolla Firehouse as a youth center; my renovation of the La Jolla Community Center; and GDC’s recent remodel of La Jolla Firehouse 13.
The San Diego Historical Resources Board is responsible for designating a local home or building as historic. Then, the California Mills Act allows homeowners to get a tax rebate for maintaining a historical property, an incentive that can go a long way to helping preserve the character that people have come to associate with La Jolla. Preserving a historic property isn’t always simple. If you are interested in restoring or preserving a historic property, there are some important steps to consider. If you are interested in purchasing an older property and want to know if it is listed as a historic home, you can research the home’s deed trust to discover its original build-date and learn more about its history. The National Register of Historic Places and the National Trust for Historic Preservation provide lists of historic homes and properties for sale. Also, you can check with local building conservation associations or historic societies in your area, such as the La Jolla Historical Society. However, if you are wanting to permit a significant alteration, or demolition, to a
building that is older than 45 years old, it will automatically trigger a review by the historic resources board during the permit process. If the property has characteristics of a specific style, is associated with persons or events that were historically significant, or a master architect, designer or builder, you will need a site-specific historic report. This report will be reviewed by the historic resources board and at a hearing, it will be determined if you property is designated historic or not. Historic properties will come with restrictions on what you may do to alter the exterior of the building and landscape, but not the interior. Therefore, it is crucial to always make sure you hire a licensed contractor who specializes in restoration or rehabilitation. Also, there is a big difference between “restoring” and “rehabilitating” historic properties. Restoring a house means returning the appearance of both the exterior and interior of the structure to the time period in which it was built. For homes of a certain age, strict preservation usually isn’t possible. For example, if the house did not originally have
indoor plumbing, but you plan to live in the home and don’t want that level of “rustic authenticity,” then you will likely not choose a strict restoration! Another reason not to seek strict restoration might be historic renovations made to the home, especially if provenance comes into play. For example, if Marilyn Monroe previously owned your house and retiled a wood floor in hard-to-find pink ceramic tile, there may be a strong historic appeal to keeping that addition. Restoring can be costly, but recreating old woodwork and other handcrafted elements of the original home with original artisanal materials will also restore its value and will boost your appreciation of your historic home.
