La Jolla’s lack of bike infrastructure could hinder city’s new ‘Climate Action Plan’

BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN One more bike on the road is one less car, so the new City of San Diego “Climate Action Plan” calls for a 6 percent bicycle commute by 2020, and an 18 percent by 2035. Currently, the number of San Diegans who commute to work by bike is 1 percent. To see how bike-friendly La Jolla is (and in honor of National Bike Month in May), this reporter went on a bike ride with Andy Hanshaw, executive director of the San Diego County Bicycle Coalition. His brother, John Hanshaw, who frequently bikes the streets of La Jolla, came along for the ride. We met at 8:45 a.m. May 19 at Bird Rock Coffee Roasters café, 5627 La Jolla Blvd. “This is a really great place to start our conversation and our tour because of the improvements they’ve made (in Bird Rock), not just with the bike lanes, but with the whole traffic calming roundabouts and pedestrian crosswalks. They really enhanced the area for the safety of everyone,” Andy said. The conversation centered on how beneficial it is to have a bikable and walkable community. “You are increasing property values with amenities like bike lanes and crosswalks, where people want to SEE BICYCLING, A10

City Council to vote on 2017 budget, June 13
What La Jollans can expect if it passes as proposed
BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN The 2017 City of San Diego Budget details how various city funds will be spent in the next tax year, including the General Fund, which La Jollans pay into. The City Council will vote on the budget Monday, June 13, and if it passes, the budget takes effect
July 1. How much of the budget will be spent in La Jolla? La Jolla Light took a look and identified the projects earmarked for our community. Citywide services, such as police, firefighters, trash pickup, city personnel, the “Climate Action Plan” and others, are not listed here.
Cove Odor Mitigation
The 2017 proposed budget includes $72,000 for mitigating the
stench at La Jolla Cove Bluffs. The money will be spent on non-personnel expenditures within the Park & Recreation Department for a bioactive spray that would eliminate the odor caused by marine animal waste on the bluffs. In theory, the funding would increase the spray application to three times per month.
Lifeguard Stations
The city anticipates it will spend
$120,000 for the La Jolla Cove Lifeguard Station. This is a budget increase due to revised estimates. The city has already spent $1,679,131 on the facility, which is supposed to be finished by Fiscal Year 2016. The La Jolla Shores Lifeguard Station has a $107,000 anticipated expenditure for ongoing mitigation issues. This project was finished in 2014 and provided an improved lifeguard station for the area.

About Teddy Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt (Oct. 27, 1858-Jan. 6, 1919) was the youngest man to ever hold the presidency of the United States. Following the assassination of William McKinley in September, 1901, he succeeded to the presidency and was elected to a full term in 1904. A true American statesman, explorer, soldier, naturalist and reformer, Roosevelt has been widely viewed as the country’s most energetic president. He clearly enjoyed being President and during his term established the U.S. Forest Service, the first five National Parks, set forth the process to build the Panama Canal and as a leader of the

ASHLEY MACKIN
Republican Party in the early 20th century, became a driving force for the Progressive Era in the United States. He was a genuine intellectual — a magna cum laude graduate of Harvard and the author of more than 30 books, including the four-volume “Winning of the West,” “The Naval War of 1812” and “Autobiography” — all of which are considered classics. In “The Rough Riders,” he tells the story about the United States 1st Voluntary Calvary, which he organized after resigning as Assistant Secretary of the Navy. The hard-scrabble rough riders played a significant role in assisting the U.S. military in the Spanish-American War. Roosevelt’s quotes have stood the test of time, as well. Although he is best known for the adage, “Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far,” other quotes reflect his character as well: • “In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing and the worst thing you can do is nothing”; • “Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided, but they are far better than certain kinds of peace”; and • “Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care.”

Vaccines for HPV: Near guarantee
D
ear Scott: “Our son, who is 25, went to the GP yesterday and his doc wasn’t sure about giving the Gardasil I had been bugging him to get. Didn’t you tell me about the benefits of the HPV vaccination?” The note was from a friend. It was personal, but also a topic of wide public interest and one that remains much discussed among cancer researchers and physicians. That’s why I’m answering my friend here. Roughly 12 percent of all human cancers worldwide — more than 1 million cases per year — are caused by viral infections (called oncoviruses) and attributed to a relatively small number of pathogens: human papilloma virus (HPV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Given the emphasis upon other causal factors of cancer, such as genetic mutations or environmental sources, it’s a statistic that’s not well known nor, I would argue, fully appreciated. Human viral oncogenesis is complex, and only a small percentage of the infected individuals develop cancer, but that 12 percent translates into more than 500,000 lives lost each year to virus-caused malignancies. Many of those deaths are preventable because effective vaccines already exist for HPV and HBV. Right now. No future discoveries required.
I want to specifically talk about the HPV vaccine. Controversy has constrained its proven effectiveness as a public health tool, but if used as prescribed, the HPV vaccine could essentially eliminate cervical and other HPV-caused cancers. Infection with HPV is very common. It’s estimated that at least 80 million Americans are affected. HPV is actually a group of more than 200 related viruses. There is no cure for HPV, but the infection typically clears on its own without lingering effect. Forty types of HPV are easily spread through direct sexual contact. They fall into two categories: Low-risk HPVs that do not cause cancer, but can cause skin warts on or around the genitals, anus, mouth or throat. And high-risk HPVs (mostly two strains, type 16 and type 18) that cause approximately 5 percent of all human cancers worldwide. High-risk HPV strains drive the rates of cervical (the leading cause of cancer deaths in women in many developing countries), anal and a dramatically increasing subset of oropharyngeal (the tonsil and parts of the throat and tongue) cancers among men in the United States and other developed countries. The Food and Drug Administration has approved three vaccines for preventing HPV infection: Gardasil, Garadsil-9 and Cervarix. They have strong safety records and a
near-guarantee of dramatically reducing the risk of infection. But they are not widely used. The HPV vaccination rate in the U.S. is just 36 percent for girls and 14 percent for boys (and even lower for Hispanics, blacks and the poor). The chief reason, it has been argued, relates to the recommended age of vaccination: 11-12 years. Because cancer-causing HPV viruses are transmitted through sexual contact, the idea of vaccinating a young girl or boy as a preventive measure strikes many people (i.e. parents) as premature, unsettling or enabling. My friend and colleague, Howard Bailey, M.D., director of the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center and a national leader on this topic, believes this attitude costs lives. “We need to shift focus from behavior associated with infection to preventing major cancers,” he says. There are other factors as well. For example, full vaccination requires three doses, so persistence is required. Safety concerns continue about the vaccine (perhaps part of a larger misplaced mistrust of vaccines in general). And there remains limited public understanding of HPV or HPV-related diseases, especially in men. The reality is that these vaccines work best if they are given at an early age before exposure to HPV. However, as Howard explained, if this window is missed, the FDA includes indications where the recommendation rises to age 26, to get vaccinated for at least some cancer-causing strains of HPV. Howard recommends every young, unvaccinated adult receive at least the 9-valent HPV vaccine, “which can provide protection against five additional HPV types that cause cancer and are less common than types 16 and 18.” There is the
potential for protection against HPV types that a person hasn’t yet been exposed to and if a person hasn’t been exposed to the common HPV types (6, 11, 16 and 18), it can provide protection against them as well. In a recently published statement paper, the American Society of Clinical Oncology called for a broad, concerted effort by health care professionals and policymakers to increase awareness of the evidence and effectiveness of HPV vaccination. It should be routine. The public health benefit is obvious and indisputable. I completely agree. Here’s a corollary to consider: Vaccines for HBV have been available for many years and are a routine part of pediatric immunizations in the United States. In the past, countries like Taiwan and Korea suffered endemic HBV infections and high rates of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or liver cancer. In the 1980s, these countries implemented universal infant HBV vaccination policies that have resulted in a dramatic 80 percent decline in HBV infections, cases of hepatitis and, more importantly, reductions in HCC incidence and mortality. Every day, you can read headlines about research to find new treatments and cures for the many diseases called cancer. Progress is painfully slow and uneven. We’ve been fighting this war for decades. Preventing cancer altogether is a better approach and with cancers caused by HPV, we have the right weapon already at hand. We just need to use it. — Scott M. Lippman, MD, is director of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center. His column on medical advances from the front lines of cancer research and care appears in La Jolla Light the fourth Thursday of each month. You can reach Dr. Lippman at mcc-dir-lippman@ucsd.edu
How much does landscaping affect the value of your home? Even with rising values and reduced inventory in certain markets, selling a home remains challenging. Buyers expect not just a shiny new stainless sink but pruned hedges, freshly painted walls, glistening hardwood floors, and more. Pay attention to landscaping, which can add 7 to 15 percent to a home’s value, according to HabitatDesign.com principals Jessy Berg and Bonnie Gemmell. Focus on mowing grass, removing crab grass, and eliminating dead plants and tree branches. Add lots of seasonal color through blooming annuals and perennial plants and remove problems like too much noise from traffic or neighbors by installing an inexpensive fountain with trickling water. Drought tolerant landscaping is a must in California.

Traffic board still grappling with speeding on Mt. Soledad BY ASHLEY MACKIN When La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation (T&T) advisory board had its monthly meeting May 18 at La Jolla Rec Center, trustees believed discussion on a city-recommended speed limit increase on Soledad Mountain Road was over after the city rescinded its proposal. But unbeknownst to the board, further discussion on traffic calming in that area was just beginning. In January, the city recommended the speed limit on Soledad Mountain Road between Pacifica Drive and Soledad Road be increased from 35 to 40 miles-per-hour. T&T chair Dave Abrams announced at the May meeting that the city had withdrawn its suggestion after re-evaluating the data from the speed survey that prompted the recommendation. Speed surveys are conducted once every few years to determine what speed the majority of drivers deem safe in a given area, and the city recommends the adjusting the speed limit if need be. According to an e-mail from a city associate engineer, “pertinent information” in the city’s speed survey for the Soledad Mountain Road section was reviewed again and it was determined that “The segment … between Pacifica Drive and Soledad Road can be incorporated into the segment to the north. Therefore, the new segment limits are now Pacifica Drive to La Jolla Scenic Drive South with the enforceable speed limit of 35 mph in both directions of travel.” The city’s retraction also came after residents took to community advisory group meetings to speak out against the speed increase, and
borders around speed limit signs, additional speed limit signs, landscaping the medians and more. After a debate over what actions would best appease the most residents, Abrams tabled the item to a future meeting.

Since February, residents have been sharing horror stories of near-misses and dangerous conditions caused by drivers already going too fast. Although the city said the increase would no longer be necessary, resident Roger Wiggans presented the petition results to T&T for future reference. “We got so much enthusiasm from the neighborhood that we got 175 signatures, so I still want to turn this petition in officially, so this board has it should the item come up again — and because those 175 people would kill me if I don’t hand them in,” he said. However, other residents, still concerned with speedy drivers, spoke in favor of additional traffic calming measures on Soledad Mountain Road.

■ Block loses parking limits: At the request of WindanSea resident Kevin Croteau, the board voted to recommend the west side of La Jolla Boulevard between Kolmar and Rosemont streets lose its two-hour parking designation. Presenting a petition to show the support of those on the affected block, Croteau said, “Parking is so limited in that area … and those spots are empty during the day because none of the residents can park for just two hours. I had to park a block and a half from my house when I came home the other day because parking is so impacted. There’s no reason for the two-hour parking.” The block is largely residential, with one commercial unit. The owner of the commercial property is retiring, Croteau said, and signed the petition to make the spaces fronting his building untimed. Should the building be sold and the new tenants wish to have limited-time parking, Abrams said, they could petition the T&T board to change it back. As such, a motion to recommend the city remove the two-hour limitation passed unanimously. ■ Green light for two events: The eighth annual SummerFest Under the Stars
concert (Aug. 3) and 15th annual Taste at the Cove fundraiser (Aug. 25) each got approval for the requested “No Parking” signs affiliated with the events. The La Jolla Music Society’s free SummerFest Under the Stars concert at Scripps Park, requires the loss of 12 parking spaces along Coast Boulevard for loading and unloading equipment from 8 a.m. Aug. 2 until midnight Aug. 3. The 12 spaces in question are the ones nearest the restroom facility, with the exception of the ADA-access parking spaces, which would not be affected. “We expect 1,200 people based on previous years … so we invite the community to come and bring a picnic, watch the sun set, and enjoy the concert,” said Travis Wininger, LJMS director of operations. Similarly, a fundraiser for San Diego Sports Medicine Foundation, Taste at the Cove, will also be at Scripps Park. Organizers requested temporary “No Parking” signs be placed on Coast Boulevard along the park to accommodate loading and unloading of equipment, and staging for the event. The only change from years prior, said event representative Kira Finkenberg, involves expanding the work times to avoid late-night noise. “Rather than load the entire event in and out in one day (which previously went late into the night, causing disturbances for nearby residents), we load in the day before the event and load out the morning after,” she said. — Traffic &Transportation meets 4 p.m. third Wednesdays at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollacpa.org or manana@san.rr.com

D1 hopefuls discuss Hillel student center, taxes and more at forum BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN During the Wednesday, May 18 Meet the Candidates dinner forum at Congregation Beth Israel, the four candidates who’ve consistently attended public meetings with voters (Ray Ellis, Barbara Bry, Kyle Heiskala and Lou Rodolico) got a final chance to interface with La Jollans before the June 7 election. The fifth name on the ballot, Bruce Lightner, was not present. The questions covered issues of concern to the District 1 Jewish community, like the construction of the Hillel Student Center on La Jolla Village Drive. The long-proposed project for UCSD students has confronted the opposition of neighbors and city planners for years. Bry was first to answer. “If you haven’t guessed yet, I’m Jewish,” she started. She explained that since this is a “land use” decision, it is considereded a “quasi-judicial” proceeding. “This means that if a candidate takes a formal position for or against the project, they would likely have to recuse themselves from voting on the project on the City Council. So, I will not take a formal position,” she said. Heiskala said he’s in favor of all student groups at UC San Diego having their own centers, and he would review their concerns with the stakeholders. Ellis said he would wait for further assessments before expressing an opinion. Rodolico seemed not to have an opinion on the issue. The cross atop Mt. Soledad was also on

Rodolico said, in his opinion, the cross is not a symbol of religion, but sacrifice. “I would like to see that the cross remain outdoors,” he said. Ellis agreed with him. Heiskala reminded the crowd that the cross is no longer operated by the city (it’s under the auspices of the Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial Association), so it’s not a concern of the San Diego City Council. Bry said that millions of dollar have been spent already in the memorial. “I don’t think additional government resources should be spent on any further litigation.”
Cori Briggs, taxes and infrastructure
The meeting had a recognizable face

among its attendees: Cori Briggs, the lawyer and driver of the Citizens Plan (also called the Briggs Initiative) that calls for a hotel tax increase to build an extension of the convention center downtown (but not on the waterfront), and which prohibits taxpayer money from being used to pay for a Chargers Stadium. Briggs listened attentively to what the candidates had to say. Asked if they would raise taxes for any reason, Heiskala and Rodolico were quick to say that a tax increase would be part of their plans, Ellis said he would refuse to increase taxes (calling himself a “steward” for the taxpayers), and Bry said she does not want to raise taxes, but supports the Citizen’s Plan to raise the hotel tax rate to 15 percent. “At the same level as other cities,” she remarked. Briggs joined the line of people waiting
to ask questions, and when it was his turn, he inquired: “Do you understand that the $1.7 billion backlog is not to fix our infrastructure going forward, but just to bring us to today’s standards? That’s a yes or no question. Also, if going forward the estimates of $5 billion to $10 billion is what we need to plan for our capital improvements for the next 20, 30, 40 years — assuming properties are stable and you don’t raise your taxes — how are you going to pay for that?” The $1.7 billion figure is the total cost of all the infrastructure projects needed in San Diego, as determined by a city investigation that came out in August, 2015. Councilmember Mark Kersey, chair of the Infrastructure Committee is behind Proposition H, a bond measure that will be up for vote on the June 7 ballot, and that would separate funds for the exclusive purpose of catching up with the infrastructure deficit. The proposal, which has been rejected by groups of citizens, received the support of Bry, Ellis and Heiskal, as reported in the May 19 issue of La Jolla Light. All four responded that they understood the $1.7 billion infrastructure deficit. As for part two of Briggs’ query, although they had already stated their positions on a tax increase, Briggs’ premise was how would they get the infrastructure funds without raising taxes. Ellis said, “What we need to do is make sure that we are using our money as wisely as possible.” He advocated creating an

PACs and campaign finances
Cory Briggs poses infrastructure funding questions to District 1 City Council candidates at the May 18 forum at Congregation Beth Israel in La Jolla. “economic environment” where San Diego companies can thrive. Bry’s solution was to improve the contract awarding system at City Hall. “My business office has been in La Jolla Shores for the last 10 years, and I have watched our streets being torn up a few times to have the same work done over and over again … We need to make sure that the work gets done properly the first time,” she said. Heiskala stated his intention to revise the public contract awarding process in a previous question, and reaffirmed the notion. However, he continued describing how he would indeed raise taxes. “We need to provide a concrete list of projects that we can educate the voters about, and then say: this is what you will
One questioner confronted Ray Ellis about the recent mailer sent by a Political Action Committee (PAC) on his behalf asserting that Bry supported a Chargers Stadium funded with taxpayers’ money. “What would you do if someone with a PAC puts out a false statements about you? What do you think about money in politics?” he said. Ellis responded, “A candidate is not allowed to talk to those independent expenditure groups, so there’s no conversation between me with any groups ... I want to point out that there’s also a tremendous amount of money spent in this district by labor unions, and they are putting a lot of money in this district for their candidate. ” Bry highlighted that she’s very proud to be running a “grassroots, volunteer-based campaign.” Heiskala said that he believes money in politics discourages voter participation, and Rodolico agreed with him, adding that “It makes sense to have public funding for election money going forward.”

Parents report problem with smokers near elementary school Are we sending kids mixed messages? BY ASHLEY MACKIN Concerned parents of La Jolla Elementary School students are speaking out about the presence of smokers near the campus’ south end. Spotted by parents before school begins at 8 a.m. and in the afternoons when school gets out, patients and/or guests of the La Jolla Recovery center next door at 7301 Girard Ave. are reportedly smoking too close to the school on a near daily basis. “I volunteer to stand outside the gate during morning drop-offs, and there is a group of people outside (La Jolla Recovery) smoking at that time,” said parent Aimee Lansky. “We pay a lot of money to have anti-smoking programs at our schools. But when you have people standing right next to the school smoking, it’s confusing for the kids.” Parent Kat Peppers added that students who walk from Muirlands Middle and

Participants in La Jolla Recovery Center programs, next door to La Jolla Elementary School, have been spotted smoking as students are coming and going to school. occasionally La Jolla High School to meet with their siblings after school often walk past the recovery center, and are sometimes subject to second-hand smoke. “The (smokers) sit right near the corner of Girard and Genter, and a lot of students walk past there,” she said. “It’s

intimidating for them.” Because the area serves as a route home for students from La Jolla’s schools, there aren’t many places for smokers who are also participating in La Jolla Recovery’s programs. “I feel bad because no matter where they go, they are in the path of our public school
students,” Lansky said. “We are all for people getting the help they need, but not (in favor) of people smoking as our kids walk by.” As a proposed compromise, the parents are suggesting a schedule change in break times, so the program participants are not smoking
when students are coming and going. Willing to look into a change, La Jolla Recovery owner Daniel Simons told La Jolla Light they want to be a good neighbor, and will do what they can to ease the situation. “Our participants are told not to smoke in front of the school or in front of the office,” he said. “It’s going to happen occasionally when a new person comes and doesn’t know the rules. But it’s not just us, we’ve seen construction workers smoke (in the area).” Open since March 1, the La Jolla Recovery center offers treatment options in group and private settings throughout the day, so participants come and go during business hours and beyond. Unaware of the school dismissal time of 2:45 p.m., Simons said he actually thought La Jolla Elementary released its students at 2 p.m. “We don’t want to cause problems for our neighbors, we’re here to help people, and I don’t smoke, so I get their concern. We’re going to see what we can do to help,” he said.

missing. “We are satisfied with these changes, that’s what we wanted,” Miller said. T&T chair Dave Abrams said at the May 18 meeting that he had the impression the projects could be docketed on the board’s agenda, along with the cost estimates, within the next few months. Andy, who didn’t know about the Fay Avenue Bike Path before, said it was a good ride. “It’s safe and separated, that’s why it’s good. It has low visibility. I don’t think many people are aware of it, so if they had some signage to the path, that would be better.” Right off the path exit onto Nautilus Street, the Hanshaws admired the plentiful bike racks across the street from La Jolla High School. “I hope they have bike parking
walk and bike more, and also by slowing traffic, people can actually see businesses better. When you get people biking and walking, business improves. We know because we have seen the economic data,” Andy said. We started off north on La Jolla Boulevard to find that the bike lanes are disrupted before the roundabouts. “We are running out of bike lane,” John announced. We turned right on La Canada to access the Fay Avenue Path. The route is a mostly paved, separated, multi-use pathway that runs from Via del Norte to Nautilus Street. The corridor is under scrutiny from a group of citizens who
took safety issues to the La Jolla Traffic & Transportation (T&T) board in February with plans for making the path safer “for everyone.” Resident Sally Miller told the La Jolla Light that said she doesn’t want to see an increase in the volume of bikers along the path. “I don’t want it to become a bicycle freeway, I want it to be safe for seniors walking their dogs, mothers pulling their strollers, and not just for bicycles,” She added that the No. 1 safety issue along the path is the presence of dogs off their leashes. With help from the T&T board, path improvements were requested to the city, including a change in the signage and the installation of curb ramps for the Via del Norte and La Canada entrances, currently

inside, too,” Andy said. Crossing over to Fay Avenue, the bike path turns into a “Bike Route.” There are a few bike routes in La Jolla, where bikes and cars share the space. Some are located in back streets where there is less traffic, but others — like the Fay Avenue — are right in the middle of a very busy road. More often than not, the only designation of a bike route is a rectangular green sign with a bike on it at the beginning of the street. For the most southern block on Fay Avenue, that is the case. To the north, road users encounter “sharrows,” which are share road signs painted with a bike and two arrows on the pavement. At this point, Andy explained that the “sharrows” are positioned on the exact spot

where the bike is supposed to ride, separated enough from what’s called “the door zone” (the space necessary for a car door to open). “The flipside is that you are putting the bicyclist in the middle of the road, and many people don’t feel safe riding there, so what happens is the bicyclist just rides close to the cars, because that’s sort of how they’ve been taught to ride, but not consciously thinking that a car door can open at any moment, and that’s dangerous,” Andy said. After Genter Street, the Bike Route goes west to Girard Avenue, north to Pearl Street and finds its way to Bluebird Lane. It continues on a stretch of Prospect Place to Coast Boulevard, and circles back surrounding the Village. “There aren’t any bike lanes within the Village … My wife and I ride to the Village and there we chain our bikes because it’s dangerous to ride there,” John said. He added that he likes to ride along the “Scenic Route,” which goes from Coast Boulevard to Pacific Beach along the coast. “But for job commuters, you really need a short and flat route,” he said. The mayor’s “Climate Action Plan” proposes building 50 miles of “new or improved” bike lanes along the city to increase the percentage of bike commutes. La Jolla Light contacted city Public Information Officer Arian Collins to find out if any of those bike lanes will be placed in La Jolla. “At this time, it’s not known where all of the 50 miles of new or improved bicycle lanes will occur,” she responded in an e-mail. Collins explained that the “bikeway miles” are predicated by the locations where street resurfacing will occur. “The majority of

streets get resurfaced by the Street Preservation Program, which determines their locations by the pavement condition, as well as the economic efficiency to preserve its condition. In addition, not all streets that get resurfaced are Bicycle Master Plan routes, which means only a portion of those streets coincide with planned bikeways

that can be improved or created,” she wrote. When we got onto Prospect Street, Andy noticed it had recently been re-paved and the street lines re-painted. “They forgot the bike lane,” John laughed. A few bike lanes exist in La Jolla. Bike lanes are those where the space for bike riders is marked with paint on the road or a physical
separation. But the ones in La Jolla lack the separation, and Andy pointed out that for bike lanes to be safe, they need that separation. On May 20 San Diego celebrated “Bike to Work Friday.” The San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) organized 101 pit stops, which from 6 to 9 a.m., offered a free T-shirt, bike tune-ups and breakfast. Employers all over San Diego agreed to encourage bike commuting. In La Jolla, save for UC San Diego and the SurfRider Foundation, the pit stops were completely absent. Andy said employers should encourage their employees to commute by bike because “a healthier workforce is a more productive workforce. Employers need to think about adding bike parking for their employees, bike security, showers and lockers.” Our ride ended in front of the La Jolla Light at 565 Pearl St. Afterward, Andy concluded, “We noticed there is zero bike parking in La Jolla’s commercial district. La Jolla is an ideal place to ride. It just needs some bike lanes.” Community activist Melinda Merryweather, who makes it known that she has bicycled in La Jolla for the past 40 years, told the Light, “We’re not a bike friendly place at all. Getting in and out of La Jolla through Torrey Pines is dangerous … I think biking is terribly important. I go to other cities and I see that they are very aware of it, and it is a good thing.” ■ Do you think La Jolla is a bicycle-friendly place to ride?

Permitters OK addition to house on Fern Glen BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN A project to build a two-room second-story addition on an existing first floor at 306 Fern Glen St. was approved by the La Jolla Development Permit Review committee (DPR) and sent to La Jolla Community Planning Association (CPA) during the May 10 meeting at the Rec Center. The only project on the agenda was recommended for approval in its first review, which only happens once or twice a year, said DPR chair Paul Benton. Project architect Jennifer Charles said she was prepared to satisfy all boardmembers’ concerns, as she brought out a collection of photographs, construction plans and street views. The single-family dwelling would add another 425 feet to its 3,962-square-foot space, she said. The house features a second story with a deck, an open family room and a bathroom. The project would extend that second floor all the way across the existing first story, to house extended family. The 1962 original building already had two stories, and an expansion carried out in 1987 added some of the downstairs space. The 0.18-acre site is three blocks from the ocean. Board members checked to

Applicant Jennifer Charles shows pictures of the Fern Glen house to DPR members Mike Costello and Matthew Welsh ensure all project parameters complied with the La Jolla Community Plan. Charles assured them, “We’re keeping the same painted shingles, same roof and also the same painted stucco. The homeowners love the look of this house so the addition is meant to fit in and use the same materials.” In response to trustees’ concerns about the impact of the expansion on the neighbors, she said the homeowners had talked to all the neighbors within 350 feet “door to door.”
“They have made their rounds,” Charles said as she provided the board with a list with names and addresses of the contacted neighbors. Still, board member Mike Costello pressed the question, “There only seems to be the one thing outstanding and that’s neighborhood character. If it wasn’t for the fact that this home is so close to the ocean where we’ve had some controversy in the past, I would make the motion that we make this final and let you go, but

DPR chair Paul Benton, members Robert Mapes, Bob Collins, Jim Ragsdale and project applicant Jennifer Charles caution and prudence tells me we shouldn’t.” In response to his question, Charles showed a sequence of maps and street views that revealed how the views would change slightly. She insisted that no neighbor would lose ocean view. That argument seemed to satisfy the board. Jim Ragsdale presented the motion that the committee vote to approve the project on the spot. “With the additional information, it shows the character of the area. I don’t recall having
other issues with this one (project),” he said. After that, only trustee Matthew Welsh was leery of giving his OK. “I’m skeptical to vote on something that we haven’t gone to the site (to see),” he said. Eventually, the vote to approve was unanimous and the project was sent to LJCPA with a recommendation for further approval. — DPR meets 4 p.m. second and third Tuesdays at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollacpa.org

Royal Academy of Performing Arts studio one big happy dance family
T
here is a clicking down the hallway at the Royal Academy of Performing Arts (RAPA) as little tap dancers pass miniature ballerinas in pink leotards. It’s the busy afternoon time and parents shuttle kids in and out of classes while owner Francine Garton gracefully works her way through, offering hugs and greetings to all. RAPA is the fulfillment of a dream for Garton, who opened up the new enhanced, state-of-the-art studio in Sorrento Valley in October 2014. Royal Dance Academy had been in Piazza Carmel in Carmel Valley since 2001, a dance studio that steadily grew until it had outgrown its space. Once she opened the Sorrento Valley studio, Garton had planned to keep both spaces open until her lease was up in October 2016. “It was too hard to be in both places at once,” said Garton, who closed the door on the Piazza Carmel location in May 2015. “I love everyone being under one roof...there are so many more opportunities being in this location and I love being one big dance RAPA family. It’s been unbelievable.” As soon as the full move was complete, Garton said it didn’t take long for the personality of the studio to come alive: a family-friendly happy place that is frequently buzzing with activity. The new space is a huge upgrade from the old location, going from 6,000 square feet to 15,000 square feet. RAPA now has five large dance studios, an acting studio complete with a green screen, a Pilates studio with reformers and gyrotonic equipment, and music and voice studios where students’ lessons can be professionally recorded in voice, piano and guitar. Performances can be held in the biggest of the five dance studios, where there is room for 200 seats.
COURTESY
Royal Academy of Performing Arts offers opportunities for all levels of dancers. Dancers have their own dressing room and a quiet study room to catch up on homework before or between classes. The studio also has its own retail shop with dance accessories as well as snacks and beverages — parents can wait in a comfortable lounge and view all of the classes underway on flat-screen TVs. Garton and staff finally have the office space they never had and a conference room offers a space for her to bring in nutritionist or injury-prevention specialists for special presentations for dancers and parents. Kids can opt to dance more recreationally, coming one to two times a week, or they can get on a competitive track and dance 10 to 20 hours a week. RAPA offers the Royal Academy of Dance ballet program with training and ballet examinations, as well as
a pre-professional Ballet Academy program for students who want to pursue ballet as a potential career. Kids can train to be a “triple-threat,” pairing dance classes with voice and acting lessons and adults can get in on the action too with adult ballet, tap, Pilates and Zumba classes. Dancers can learn about competition and teamwork through RAPA’s dance teams, which are offered on levels of both more recreational and more competitive. Depending on the dancers’ level of ability and commitment they can join teams in ballet, contemporary, jazz, tap, lyrical, hip-hop and musical theater. Currently RAPA dancers are preparing for their 15th annual Dance Recital, this year held at the California Center for the Arts in Escondido on June 15, 16 and 17 at 7 p.m. At the recital, dancers from age 3 to 18 will take the stage. Most meaningful to Garton is that this year’s oldest students, the graduating class of 2016, have been with her since she first opened her studio in Piazza Carmel 15 years ago. They are dancing to “I Dream A Dream” and rehearsals have already driven both Garton and the dancers to tears. “RAPA is not only about dance,” Garton said, noting how much the studio becomes a family for dancers. “They do really call it their second home.” Auditions for the fifth annual performance of “The Nutcracker” are June 5. Spots are also open for RAPA Summer Camps, from Disney Dance Camp to an audition-only Bolshoi Intensive with teachers from the Bolshoi Academy in Russia. The studio is at 11494 Sorrento Valley Road, Suite A, (858) 259-7272. rapasd.com — Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper’s advertising department in support of its advertisers.

Doctor explains the evolution of rejuvenation FROM PRESS REPORTS With the evolution of non-surgical facial rejuvenation, anti-aging has become a multi-faceted and multi-staged approach for all generations (and also important to note for more and more men). It used to be that intervention typically did not occur until surgical procedures were indicated. Today with more resources readily available, patients are now becoming proactive in warding off the signs of aging with non-surgical preventative measures and “maintenance” procedures. These include treatments such as facial injectables, laser technologies, and advanced skincare. These modalities are being adopted into even the younger generation’s regimens and are playing an important role in not only creating a more rejuvenated look, but additionally a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Of course surgery continues to hold a key role in facial rejuvenation. When done properly, surgery can make a remarkable difference without creating a “surgical” appearance. Dr. Scott Barttelbort offers a variety of facelift techniques that he tailors for each
individual patient. Whether it is a mini-facelift, a short-scar technique, a full-correction facelift, or an endoscopic approach, these can all be done in a natural yet effective way. Together, surgical and non-surgical procedures can have a synergistic effect maximizing the results of one another. Dr. Barttelbort and his team take great pride in recognizing each patient is unique and work hard to create a treatment plan that is appropriate and personalized for every patient. Dr. Barttelbort has been a practicing plastic surgeon for more than 20 years and is well-versed in all aspects of cosmetic surgery for the face and body. He is a member of both the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, the country’s most respected plastic surgery organization. He received his plastic surgery training at Yale University School of Medicine and is former Chief of Plastic Surgery of Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California. — To schedule a consultation, call (858) 623-9394 or visit drbsandiego.com The Business Spotlight features commercial enterprises that support the La Jolla Light.

Why should La Jolla Village residents get MAD? COMMENTARY BY PHYLLIS PFEIFFER President, La Jolla Light Chair, La Jolla Community Foundation
W
e get it. You’re sick of paying taxes. So are we. Where do the big bucks we send every year to Washington, Sacramento and San Diego go? What do we get for our money? To address the lack of city services that have detrimentally impacted our Village, the La Jolla Community Foundation has underwritten the legal fees, engineer’s report and communication outreach to establish a Maintenance Assessment District (MAD) for the purpose of garnering funds for Village beautification. To implement and oversee the MAD once it’s established, an Enhance La Jolla board was also formed. Some 62 communities within the City of Diego already have MADs for community improvements — the best local example is Bird Rock. To quote Darcy Ashley, a well-known Bird Rock resident, “The best $90 I send to the government every year is for the Bird Rock MAD. Every time I go in and out of my neighborhood I see my dollars at work on La Jolla Boulevard.” Joe LaCava, another well-known Bird Rocker recently wrote, “With 10 years of operation under its belt, I’ve seen firsthand how a MAD can transform a community. The real measure of success of the Bird Rock MAD is that residents and merchants came together for the common good of our neighborhood.” Bird Rock, once the sad, southern sister neighborhood of La Jolla, is now the best-maintained and unified neighborhood in our community. Ninety-three percent of the land parcels in the Bird Rock MAD are residential, and pay 70 percent of the MAD assessments, even though almost all of the improvements are in the commercial district along La Jolla Boulevard. This is, in part, why the authors of the proposed La Jolla Village MAD included residential streets in its boundaries, along with the commercial strips. Bird Rock residents took pride and action to fix up their neighborhood and we thought Village residents would want to do the same. Unlike Bird Rock, where the residents pay the lion’s share of the assessments, only 13 percent of the Village MAD fees will come from residential property owners. The Village is your backyard and your front yard. Not tied to a big house and garden, you live a cool, urban-type lifestyle, without the tall buildings. You can walk to cafes, parks and

Improvements include traffic roundabouts, median landscaping, street lamps, irrigation maintenance and repair. restaurants. With the opening of The LOT, you can even walk to the movies! Enhance La Jolla took into consideration the Park Row residents whose streets and yards are too often receptacles for trash from Village employees and visitors who park all day in front of their homes. We thought a MAD could help. These same employees and visitors come to our museums and churches and park on other Village streets, which also affects homes on Prospect, Coast Boulevard, Eads and Draper, among others. A Village that looks shoddy, unkempt and dirty will certainly impact the property values of homes and condos in the Village. Even if you or your HOA take great care of your property and keep your sidewalks clean, your home or building is not an island. If the rest of your neighborhood looks bad, it will impact the value of your residence. If you’re asking what will Village residents get for $86.87 a year (the proposed MAD assessment), which boils down to $1.67 a week – or less than the cost of a tall cup of Starbucks coffee? The MAD will cover a well-maintained Village with power-washed streets,
supplemental trash collection and groomed landscape areas. Your small investment will have a big multiplier effect on the Village. A MAD is one of the only designated community groups that the city permits making improvements on city-owned property. Enhance La Jolla plans to work in partnership with the La Jolla Community Foundation to raise additional private donations for capital improvements in the Village, such as trees, benches, custom street signs, lighting, flowers, traffic calming solutions. Take a walk around the Village this week. Are you happy with what you see? Without a MAD, what you see is what you will get, forever. And conditions will only deteriorate further with the passage of time. We need to pull together as a community to enhance our community. Learn more about Enhance La Jolla from its website enhancelajolla.org and attend one of the community outreach meetings at 10:30 a.m. or 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 22 at the La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. Talk with the Enhance La Jolla steering committee and board members, whose names appear on the website. Get involved. Get MAD.

OUR READERS WRITE
La Jolla does need something, perhaps a MAD is it!
Reading about New York City’s cleanup in Phyllis Pfeiffer’s commentary last week in the May 19 La Jolla Light, makes me think of visiting Boston last year, and how impressed I was with how seamlessly new buildings nestled next to those preserving America’s history. It also makes me think of falling in love with La Jolla years ago (aside from its natural beauty). It had to do with its beautiful trees and green landscaping. Gone and gone. It had to do with the artful pruning of trees, reminding me of Japanese traditions. Whatever trees that can be found today are pollarded. Falling in love with La Jolla back then had to do with beach cottages, rose bushes, singing birds, and the smell of newly cut grass. Gone and gone. In other words, La Jolla had an ambiance, a uniqueness, and a cohesiveness that made La Jolla the perfect destination for couples and families of all ages. Seeing black and white “blah, blah, blah ...” on the side of a blank stark wall in the Village does not build ambiance and cohesiveness, as this kind of “art” is already available in superior rotation and variance on Facebook. I don’t have the answer for what in the “big picture” might work currently. The old “cohesive and unique community” of La Jolla is gone for good. Rents are so high that businesses capable of carrying merchandise attractive to couples and families are fewer and fewer (with the exception of those catering to the very elite; however, most folk
with money are just as savvy about spending it as anyone else). Hence, while “unique” and “eclectic” and “cohesive ambiance” come to mind as possible draws for bringing back shoppers, in reality these require store rents inconsistent with what La Jolla has to offer. Listening to a shop owner who must move elsewhere at the end of the current lease term, I now understand why there are plethora of yoga and physical fitness studios dotting every block. I was told these are one of the few types of businesses that can afford La Jolla rents. Hence, it is what it is, so one must make the best of what is left to at least preserve the best impression possible for those who come to our beautiful coast or who live here, and that is Cleanliness! Flowering plants! Trees! Let’s make the trees remaining and any new trees “shine”! The new “euks” on Girard have not been properly cared for and are not developing correctly. Note: My apology to stores like Warwick’s, homeowners who have not turned their vision totally inward, and property owners not singularly motivated by greed; this is not intended to include you.

FROM BUDGET, A1 cost of this project ascends to $3,652,142. The Children’s Pool Lifeguard Station is regarded in the 2016 summary as one of the accomplishments of the past budget year. However, only 98 percent of the construction is complete. An extra $115,000 of unidentified funding is included in the 2017 budget, but it doesn’t detail when the funds would be spent.

The Theater & Arts Foundation of San Diego County/La Jolla Playhouse will receive $501,560 for 2017 (that’s $86,955 up from 2016). It’s three percent of the Playhouse’s operating annual income. The 2017 allocation for La Jolla Music Society is $244,286 (that’s $31,665 more than in 2016). The Athenaeum Music & Arts Library will receive $106,152 (that’s $33,818 more than 2016). La Jolla Historical Society will receive $85,006 for 2017 (that’s $27,814 more than in 2016). The La Jolla Symphony & Chorus will receive $54,335 (that’s $15,198 more than 2016).
La Jolla Mesa Drive Sidewalk
The construction of a new sidewalk at La Jolla Mesa Drive, south of Deer Hill Court and north of Baja Mar, is projected to start in 2017. The total cost of the project will be $826,000. The city has sepent $298,037 already, and has $537,963 in funding from past budgets to spend. No more funding is projected for the La Jolla Mesa Sidewalk in the 2017 budget.
Torrey Pines Road Improvements
Phase 2 of the Torrey Pines Road Improvement Plan would provide an additional path of travel for pedestrians on the south side of Torrey Pines Road between Hillside Drive and Amalfi Street; a pedestrian crossing at Torrey Pines Road west of Princess Drive; buffered bike lanes along Torrey Pines Road from La Jolla Shores Drive to Prospect Street; and a gateway
Proposed areas for La Jolla’s Maintenance Assessment District (MAD)
into the La Jolla Village area via a painted, stamped, asphalt median between Roseland Drive and Hillside Drive. $1.3 million is included in the 2017 budget to fund this project. Construction is anticipated for 2018.
Water Pipelines
The city will ultimately spend $8,280,800 to change the water pipelines around La Jolla Scenic Drive. The current 6-inch, 8-inch and 12-inch pipelines will be replaced with 16-inch pipelines that meet fire flow requirements. Construction is expected to start in 2016 and end in 2017. For the 2017 budget, however, $4,832,598 is dedicated to the project. The budget also earmarks $1.5 million for the Alvarado Pipeline Extension Project. This plan, still in the design stage, is driven by the need to provide redundant transmission to the coastal zones of La Jolla and Pacific Beach. Funding for this project would increase in the next year, up to a total estimated cost of $47,769,986. Another $1.5 million is allocated for the Morena Pipeline, with similar purposes.
Coast Boulevard Improvements
This project, scheduled to begin in Fiscal Year 2017, provides for the design and construction of widened walkways, enhanced paving, slope protection, sea walls, curb and street paving, and various improvements like bollards, railings and landscape along Coast Boulevard in the vicinity of Children's Pool from the lifeguard tower to Jenner Street. The city has a $482,317 budget from previous years for this project, and although another $66,000 in funding is reflected in the document, there is no additional money allocated for the project in the 2017 budget.
Utilities Undergrounding
Two budget lines were allocated for utilities undergrounding. Project Block 1M, with an estimated cost of $396,000, covers the La Jolla Country Club and the areas west of Nautilus Street and east of Fay Avenue.
COURTESY
Contruction is projected to start June 19, 2016 and will end in May 30, 2020. Project Block 1M1 covers the Muirlands area south and east of Nautilus Street. With a budget of $356,400, its starting date is Jan. 22, 2017. To access more information and a map of the undergrounding areas, visit sandiego.gov/undergrounding/updates In the May modification of this budget, these lines were located under “bikeway striping improvements.” City officials confirmed that this allocation was a mistake, and the funds are indeed for undergrounding the utilities. Bike striping might be considered after the undergrounding, but it’s not confirmed that it will happen.
Reservoirs
$500,000 in extra costs for the La Jolla View Reservoir improvement plan is budgeted for 2017. This project will replace the existing reservoir to improve water quality.
Scripps Park
$700,000 in additional funds are allocated for the comfort station replacement in Scripps Park adjacent to La Jolla Cove.
More Rec Center
The city intends to increase hours at city recreation centers (included the La Jolla Rec Center), from 45 to 60 hours per week at a total cost of $473,860.
Merchants Association
La Jolla Village Merchants Association had a budget of $46,900 for 2015. However, in the 2017 proposed budget, funding for 2016 or 2017 isn’t listed.
Torrey Pines Kiwanis Foundation
$41,477 is earmarked for the Torrey Pines Kiwanis Foundation. ■ Want to learn more? Find the 2017 proposed city budget at sandiego.gov/fm/proposed

Salk researcher releases his second book “The Nature of Humans: Why we behave as we do,” the latest book by former Salk Institute researcher Ron Newby, is available in paperback and Kindle download. In the book, the author attempts to, according to press material, “illustrate linkage of our ancestral genetic behavioral traits to modern human behaviors… Why do some people exhibit despicable and greedy behavior — while others are compassionate and tolerant? With the scholarship of paleo-anthropology, history and the neurosciences, explanations are offered as to why we behave as we do.” Newby’s first work “Homo sapiens: A liberal’s perspective” also looks at human behavior and evolution.

UCSD students launch line of natural energy-boosting snacks Self-proclaimed “caffeine-head” and UCSD student Alex Nielsen has created (and is rolling out) a new line of all-natural energy snacks that are pocket-sized for convenience but have as much caffeine as a cup of black coffee. Currently available on campus at UCSD, Ritual Energy will soon be available at La Jolla juice bars and coffee shops. “You could throw four in your pocket and have four cups of coffee with you,” Nielsen said. Founded in his UCSD dorm with partner Jesse Kriege, Ritual Energy is a line of caffeinated bite-sized bars, about the size of your thumb, made with all natural ingredients such as peanuts, dates, organic chocolate, coffee bean extract and honey. “We gave samples to friends and family and got a great reception, so we decided this was something we needed to do on a larger scale,” he said. With an active lifestyle, Nielsen said he wanted to find a way to have an energy source readily accessible while on hikes or in class, and started experimenting with putting caffeine in food. “We wanted to make something with the convenience of energy drinks, but without all the chemicals; and something you could have with you all the time, which you cannot do with a cup of coffee,” he said. “The portability was something I loved.” Learn more at ritualenergy.com

according to the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. • You get the Zika virus from a bite from an infected Aedes mosquito. • The disease is mostly a threat for women who are pregnant or want to conceive because it can cause serious birth defects. • Zika is very hard to detect and diagnose. The symptoms are often very mild so people don’t realize they have the virus. In fact, one in five people who contract Zika have few or no symptoms. • Symptoms include fever, rash, joint and muscle pain and conjunctivitis (pink eye). Doctors share West Nile virus facts • Carried by mosquitos and transmitted when they bite. • Symptoms include fever, headache, vomiting and in older adults — stiff neck, confusion, seizures, muscle weakness and loss of consciousness. To protect against disease-causing mosquito bites: Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants. Stay in places with air conditioning and screens to keep mosquitos outside. Sleep under a mosquito bed net if you are overseas or outside and can’t protect yourself. Use EPA registered insect repellents with one of these ingredients: DEET, picaridin, or oil of eucalyptus.

The high school exit exam every kid should have to pass
I
am totally in favor of a high school exit course that every high school student would have to pass to graduate. In fact, mine would be required of kids even before they were allowed to drop out since it would be too scary to unleash them on the general public otherwise. Here would be a few of the required topics: 1. Basic credit card math. Let’s say you rack up $1,000 in charges on your 15 percent annual interest credit card buying In-N-Out Burgers and concert tickets before your parents confiscate the card. If you make only a minimum monthly payment of $15 until it’s paid off, how much would you end up paying back? (Answer: About $2,200. And it would take you at least five years.) 2. Apartment leases. How to read them. Important word here: read. Yes, you really need to (read it). Including the fine print. Especially the fine print.
La Jolla Cultural Partners
3. Basic geography. Sweden and Switzerland are not the same country. New England and England are different places. You do not need a passport to travel from
Texas to California. Failure to know these facts are automatic fails. 4. Laundry skills 101. Your mom always did your laundry, so how hard can it be? Separating lights from darks isn’t just a plot by washing machine manufacturers to make you run more loads. Clothes have something called “labels” in them recommending washing — and drying — temperatures. If you do not wish your favorite shirt to be reduced to munchkin size, pay attention. Also, when they say “dry clean only,” they really mean it. 5. Laundry skills 210. Dryers. If you have access to one that isn’t in a laundromat there is something called a “lint filter” that needs to be regularly cleaned. The alternative is burning down the house. Easier just to clean the lint filter. 6. Roommate math. Basic. You and three friends decide to get an apartment together that costs $1,500 a month to get out from under the thumbs of your annoying parents. (Free-dom! Free-dom!) What is your share of the rent when a) one of them loses
his job at Burger King and can’t pay? b) another one decides it’s cheaper to live at home despite the annoying parents? and c) they’re both, like, “Sorry, dude”?
those places that will do it for you and even advance you your refund, but be assured that they’re going to take a hefty chunk of your refund in the process.
7. Roommate math. Advanced. Developing the skills to avoid deadbeat roommates: priceless.
13. Automobile purchasing. Caveat Emptor. That’s Latin for “Do not believe a word they say,” especially if it is a used car. No, it didn’t really belong to a little old lady who only drove it to church.
8. Survey of world religions. There are lots of different religious beliefs in the world. Misinformation about them leads to a lot of confusion. Sometimes even wars. 9. Internet education. Just because you read it on the Internet doesn’t mean it’s true. In fact, there is a high likelihood it is NOT true. Apply a critical filter to everything you read. (Yes, you actually have one even if you’ve never used it.) Do NOT forward anything that says “Send this to everyone you know!”
14. Dishwashers. You should be so lucky to have one but they come pretty standard in rental apartments these days. Tempted to economize by using liquid dishwashing soap instead of the stuff made for dishwashers? Seriously bad idea. Everybody has to do it once but be prepared to find yourself standing in your kitchen knee deep in bubbles.
11. Payday Loans (aka “Selling your soul to the devil”). Do not EVER EVER EVER set foot into these places. We won’t even go into the math. They are just a truly bad deal.
15. Survival cooking skills. It’s really expensive to eat out for every meal, even fast food meals. It’s also really unhealthy. When I was in graduate school, we had something called “Po’ Boy Tomato Soup.” (Recipe: pour hot tap water over the contents of six McDonald’s ketchup packets. Stir.) It’s totally gross. Learning to make five basic meals that do not involve Top Ramen noodles isn’t hard. Stay on the outside aisles of the supermarket when you shop and you’ll be fine. And now…Congratulations! Let the next chapter of your life begin!
12. Tax returns. The federal EZ form is really that. You can do it. Yes, you really can! It’s one page! It’s tempting to go to one of
— Inga’s lighthearted looks at life appear regularly in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com
10. Scam avoidance. It’s not just old people who fall for these. That “free” ringtone you signed up for? It’s now a hefty (and hidden) fee on your phone bill. Online ads for cheap iPhones or luxury goods? Sorry kids, if it sounds too good to be true, it really is.

Public hours are noon to 4 p.m. Thursday-Sunday. Admission is free. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, beach cottages gave way to the work of architects who adapted historical styles to modern sensibilities, creating uniquely regional designs in Spanish Revival, Moorish, English Tudor, and early Rancho/Hacienda styles – today considered “landmarks” of design. This exhibition focuses on historically designated homes from the 1920s and 1930s. It will include “Cows on the Beach 2016,” by photographer Philipp Scholz Rittermann and “Cows on the Beach 1906” by Herbert R. Fitch.

Truffle Sauce ■ Ingredients • 1/3-cup white truffle oil • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Eating my way through Parma: An Italian Food Series
A
truffle hunting we will go! Thanks to the gracious hospitality of the Italian Trade Agency, I traipsed through the historic cobblestone streets and bucolic hills of Parma, the gastronomic capital of Italy and beyond. Our intimate group of food writers visited such traditional sights as a family-owned Parmigiano Reggiano dairy, and a charcuterie museum and production house. Then I scouted out the best booths at the CIBUS International Food Show where I treated myself to many fine delights from balsamic vinegar “caviar” and paper-thin prosciutto ham to sweet, silky cappuccino and pistachio pates, and melt-in-your-mouth buffalo mozzarella balls from pristine pastures of Naples. Pastas in every imaginable form and shape, including gluten-free and kosher, olive oil that resembled fluid gold, diminutive ruby red tomatoes sweeter than tutti frutti, and lactose-free, hand-crafted gelato that went down real nicely (even after three servings). But the food that ignited my romantic culinary spirit was the noble truffle (not to be confused with the chocolate truffle) called “tartufi” in these parts. Revered as the “fruit of the gods,” this freak of the mycological world has been elevated to precious food jewel coveted by fine chefs and refined palates throughout the world.
My fascination with this elite woodsy gem pulled me in to the booth of Savini Tartufi. Fourth generation purveyors of truffles, Cristiano Savini was delighted to share his family story, passion for the fruit, and some trivia of the trade. Here’s the fanciful truffle journey from forest to table: A treasure of the soil called diamante di foresta, “the forest diamond,” has a life cycle entirely underground, earning the name “hypogeum mushroom.” The ancient Greeks and Romans were mystified by the miraculous formation of these subterranean fungi. Having a symbiotic relationship with tree roots and soil spores naturalists surmised that these botanical anomalies were created by Zeus-like powers of lightning and thunder. The Romans named the swollen earthy fruit a “tuber,” and many authors, including Aristotle praised the mysterious fungi for its aphrodisiacal qualities and culinary uses. The fungal fascination continues today to the tune of $1,200 an ounce, depending upon the truffle variety. The high pricetag is attributed to the rarity of this wild delicacy that has to be unearthed during a hunting expedition using a specially trained truffling dog which is able to snuff out aromatics reminiscent of honey, garlic and clean, fresh earthy notes.
• 1 garlic clove, minced • Juice from one Meyer lemon • 1 tablespoon Italian parsley, minced

Sorry, Mr. Pig. But, your truffle-hunting duties have gone to the dogs! Originally, the truffle had been snorted out by the pig — a natural truffle hunter. But, according to Flavia Lupi, Export Representative with Savini Tartufi, “Hogs have been replaced by dogs, since the pigs eat the precious truffles.” Truffle hunters take their dogs out in the dead of night to keep their sites secret from rival hunters. With a pointing stick and flashlight they share a harmonious passion and purpose. While there are more than 100 varieties, not all truffles are created equal. The highly prized white truffle, botanically called tuber magnatum pico from the Alba region, has a ripening season from mid-September to December. This rare beauty is known for its smooth skin (peridium), pale colors ranging from yellow to ochre, and distinctive aroma. While the delicate scented black truffle (tuber melanosporum vitt), from a region near Umbria, has a dark purplish tinge and warty covering. This fruit barely grows larger than an orange, while its white counterpart can reach behemoth proportions, like the one discovered in 2007 by Cristiano Savini in the woods near
■ Method: In a small saucepan on low heat, combine oil, butter, garlic, lemon juice until butter is melted and garlic is tender. Add pepper and parsley. Serve immediately over pasta, rice, fish or roasted vegetables. — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com
Palaia, Province of Pisa earning a page in the “Guinness Book of World Records.” Weighing 1.497 grams, it is still classified as the world’s largest white truffle that fetched $330,000 at auction, the proceeds donated to charity. Savini relives the rapture of the moment when, “we hugged, we cried, we screamed. That gigantic truffle still covered in dirt looked like a mirage and smelt like a dream.” Truffles, whether prized white or black, raw, dried or its essence infused in oil, enliven appetizers, sides or main dishes, from bruschettas, pizzas, risottos, eggs, fish and seafood to cheeses, soufflés, fondues, roasted vegetables, and even French fries. If you ever visit the Tuscan truffle territory, the Savini dogs would be happy to guide you through the woods on a quest for the fabulous fungi, then take you to their cooking school where you can taste the fruits of your labor.

Bidding is brisk at MCASD’s biennial auction
T
he Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) hosted its 10th biennial Art Auction May 18 at 700 Prospect St. The selected works were donated by artists and galleries, locally and internationally. The event is the museum’s largest fundraiser, providing support for educational programs, exhibitions and art acquisitions. “This event has become one of the most exciting and highly anticipated nights in San Diego’s arts scene,” said museum director and CEO Hugh Davies. “The 2014 auction garnered more than $1 million to support the institution in just one evening. This night also unifies the regional art collecting community and draws attendance from all over the West Coast, and call-in bids from around the world.” The evening included both live and silent auctions items presented in a lively atmosphere accompanied by cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and food stations. The auctioneer was Andrea Fiuczynski, chairman of Sotheby’s regional offices in the Americas. Gold Circle ticket purchasers got access to special-edition auction paddles created by artist Mel Bochner.

Native voices speak out in ‘They Don't Talk Back’ at Playhouse BY DIANA SAENGER a Jolla Playhouse continues to search for works of diverse genres that surprise, entertain, inspire, or ask questions. Some accomplish all of this, as is the potential for “They Don’t Talk Back,” by Frank Henry Kaash Katasse, an Alaska native from the Tlingit clan. The play is part of Native Voices of the 2016/2017 resident theater company, a program spearheaded by Playhouse Artistic Director Christopher Ashley, which aims to encourage the artistic development of rising performing arts organizations, while contributing to the San Diego and Southern California theater scene. In an interview about the work, playwright Katasse said he thought he wanted to become a lawyer to fight for indigenous rights, and he attended the University of Hawaii at Manoa to study cultural anthropology. But an acting class changed his future.

Playwright Frank Henry Kaash Katasse
“I took an acting class thinking learning some performing arts would help me in front of a jury someday,” he said. “I got bit by the bug and was asked to take a second acting class the next semester. I found that I loved the process of just creating. When I got to college those feelings arose again.” Katasse admits at first he wasn’t much of a writer, but he started composing short screenplays in college. If he felt something he was passionate about, he would write a monologue, soliloquy, song, dance or poem. He submitted his first short play, “Reeling,” to the Native Voices program at the Autry Museum in Los Angles and became the recipient of the 2015 Von Marie Atchley Excellence in Playwriting. “‘They Don’t Talk Back,’ my first full play, is both real experiences and narrative,” Katasse said. “I flipped one of the stories sideways, so I could weave through all the stories, and I adjusted all the monologues to break off from the main story. There are a lot of interludes that are inspired by music, hip-hop verse or dance.” Many of his stories are about things he witnessed or things his parents told him. “They Don’t Talk Back” is one of the interludes. “It’s a flashback to my grandfather talking to other Tlingits,” Katasse said. “My dad would always say they don’t just sit there and they don’t talk back. I always wondered who they were. In this interlude he explains that it is a traditional metaphor.” “They Don’t Talk Back,” concerns Nick, a 17-year-old Tlingit youth. His mother is a drug addict in prison and his father a Desert Storm veteran with PTSD. Nick is sent from Juneau to stay with his grandparents, who reside in a remote Alaskan fishing village.

Shane Bowden’s new gallery features two exhibition spaces.

Artist opens 5,000-square-foot gallery in La Jolla BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN verything Australian artist Shane Bowden does, he does big. He produced 8,000 original paintings last year. His biggest are 16 feet by 8 feet. And, for his new gallery in La Jolla, he wanted plenty of space. “A lot of the passion projects that I have are very large and you need the space to show them correctly,” Bowden said. His new place, “Shane Bowden — The Gallery,” opened May 20 at 7655 Girard Ave. With 5,000 square feet and two separated exhibition sites, Bowden calls it “the biggest gallery in San Diego, and maybe Southern California.” The space holds more than 100 pieces by the artist, and three upcoming guest artists Ricky
E
Yozamp, Paula Montheli and Juan Muniz. “I love emerging art, I love people who are just coming through … When you have been going for long periods of time, you become very stuck with your line of work and are not willing to move forward or experiment quite as much anymore,” Bowden said. He said he moved to San Diego two years ago, and he lives in Point Loma. His wife was born and raised in San Diego, but for his art space, he knew he wanted La Jolla. “I just love La Jolla. I love that it has a tight community, but it also has a beautiful, adventurous feel,” Bowden said. His art is divided into two parts. What he’s better known for is his efficient production of original, pop silkscreen-printed pieces. “I’ve
been told I’m the Andy Warhol of silk,” he laughed. His prints are, indeed, Warhol-looking. He uses pop culture iconography and repeats it, featuring different colors, splattering, and other techniques to make each unique. The second variety that Bowden explores is Neo-expressionism, very colorful abstract pieces. “I just do them because they make me very happy,” he said. The price range of his work is $250 to $250,000. Bowden said he already loves the San Diego art scene. “I’ve been pleasantly surprised; they are doing great. I love the Museum of Contemporary Art, I think it’s phenomenal,” he said. When asked to compare it to larger art scenes like LA or New York, Bowden said he
prefers smaller communities. “The more time goes on, people are actually moving out of those areas into their own areas, because it all becomes the same … You go, ‘well this is another one.’ And everyone is like, ‘well, is that as good as that? or is this as good as that?’ and not really. “La Jolla was always been a little bit of an art haven for people because they could think, and write, or paint, or act, or do things in the art sense without being manipulated or influenced too much by the LA or the New York thing.” The gallery is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, at 7655 Girard Ave. shanebowden.com

Sun Exposure, Heat, and Varicose Veins—Is there a Link? It seems as though we just had the wintery weather of El Niño, and already things are heating up. But this is typical of life in Southern California. However, whether or not people are happy with this weather change, what is often noticed is an increase in varicose veins when things start to heat up. Why is this? Does sun exposure increase the chances of getting varicose veins? In a word, no. So while it’s good to always wear sunscreen on your whole body when
exposed even an hour to the sun, the sun’s rays will not contribute to you acquiring varicose veins. Remember, much of your likelihood of getting varicose veins comes from genetics. These veins are the enlarged, rope-like veins that appear near the surface of the skin, usually in the legs and ankles. The main contributor of their development is weakened vein walls and faulty valves, exacerbated by increased pressure in the lower extremities. The veins that normally pump blood back up the legs falter, and the blood then collects, pooling up and increasing pressure on the veins, which further weakens and damages them. This condition affects about 40% of women and 25% of men. So why is there a noticeable increase in varicose (and spider) veins in warmer months? Another word: heat. It’s not the sun that is the problem; when you are exposed to warm weather, leg veins dilate and enlarge,
which can cause them to fill with more blood. Blood is also brought closer to the skin to help cool down the body, making veins look larger. People who already experience symptoms will likely find an increase in the appearance of these veins. This means that if you have symptoms of varicose veins, you should avoid heat, such as long hot baths or submersion in hot tubs and steam rooms. And if your legs are aching because of swollen veins, opt for ice packs, staying far away from heat packs. What should be done to relieve varicose veins? Unfortunately, these do not go away on their own, even if the weather cools off. It may be time to consider sclerotherapy, an injection of the chemical sclerosant directly into a varicose vein in order to damage the inside lining of the vein. The subsequent scarring causes the vein to close. This can be done in an office lunch visit, 5-30 minutes, depending on the number of veins to be injected. There is minimal recovery time.
Sclerotherapy has over an 80% effectiveness rate among patients. Among its many benefits, sclerotherapy costs much less than surgery or EVLT/RFA (endovenous laser therapy or radiofrequency ablation) and requires no hospital stay. Is now the best time to get sclerotherapy? Some people prefer to have the procedure done in fall or winter, when the weather is cooler, because compression stockings and leggings are often recommended post-procedure. But if you are planning a summer trip, now may be an ideal time to nip the condition in the bud. Keep in mind that varicose veins are a medical condition. If you are in pain or even discomfort, your quality of life is being affected. Treatment can provide immediate relief for some and quick relief for most everyone else. Prolonging treatment can actually lead to serious conditions such as deep vein thrombosis.

Hurray for ‘Hollywood,’ premiering at Playhouse
W
ho doesn’t love a good mystery, especially one labeled unsavory and unsolved from the early 1920s? Playwright Joe DiPietro’s premiere of “Hollywood,” onstage at the La Jolla Playhouse, and directed by its artistic director Christopher Ashley, sheds new light on this true murder case. William Desmond Taylor (Scott Drummond), a popular director and actor with the studios and the “ladies,” is shot and killed in his home, right after one of his female admirers departs. Investigations go nowhere as detectives question several suspects over and over. They know someone is responsible for shooting Taylor in the back, but they’re getting heat for taking so long to bring about justice for this Hollywood player. Adding more pressure on the detectives is newcomer to town Will Hays (Patrick Kerr), a somewhat self-appointed fixer-of-sin, who is hired by the studio as a public relations man. After fumbling around town and the crime scene, Hays breaks the fourth wall ranting at the audience how Hollywood movies need some standards. Thus the “Hays
Code” of censorship in early Hollywood begins, causing filmmakers havoc for years to come. The chief suspect is not Taylor’s girlfriend Mabel Normand (Kate Rockwell), but one obsessive young actress who wants to be his girlfriend, Mary Miles Minter (Talene Monahon). She is seen crawling on the drain pipe outside Taylor’s door when detectives arrive. The gumshoes have several suspects that keep their heads spinning, including the butler, the drug dealer and the young girl, who literally hangs on Taylor begging for his love. The well-picked cast does an amazing job. Even though Taylor is dead most of the time, playwright DiPietro manages to find a way to work in scenes for him that keep the noir aspects chilling. Several of the females are standouts. Monahon has the voice of a child but her aggressive behavior toward Taylor is far from juvenile, and can be a little tedious at moments, yet we certainly understand her wishes. Often stepping in her way is her mother Charlotte Shelby (Tony-winner Harriet Harris). She
enters every scene like a mother hen turned into a tornado, and she is astounding. She lectures and makes demands, not only with her daughter, but other characters, as well. Normand (Rockwell) has her eyes on Taylor and is aware of her young rival, but doesn’t see her as a threat. One thing I found missing in this production was the magic touch of the Playhouse’s design team. Although the fashions are divine, and there are some very clever elements — such as video snippets of newspapers, scenes from movies on the walls and other reminders of the era — the stage itself is basically empty. Things come and go, a bed where a couple have sex, a door to Taylor’s place, a piano that shows up for a scene, and a chair for mom to use to over over Mary. Nonetheless, the actors and director make DiPietro’s work come to life and be surely entertaining to mature audiences. ■ IF YOU GO: “Hollywood” runs through June 12 in the Mandell Weiss Theatre at La Jolla Playhouse, 2910 La Jolla Village Drive on the UCSD campus.
