The mostly-flat land was laid out in a grid pattern that allowed for sidewalks and other amenities, but the hilly areas remained “wild” until the 1920s, when Ludington SEE NO SIDEWALKS, A8
Traffic group addresses ‘stuck trucks’ on Torrey Pines Road BY ASHLEY MACKIN For some time, residents who use Torrey Pines Road have observed what they call “stuck trucks” causing traffic jams on La Jolla’s main thoroughfare. Chiefly, when large trucks attempt to turn left onto Hillside Drive from Torrey Pines Road — only to be met with a sign saying they cannot proceed — they must back into traffic or find some other means to move. Now, La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation Board (T&T) is discussing the issue and evaluating the best way to notify truck drivers
of what is allowed/prohibited. Leading up to the June 15 meeting, where the topic was set for discussion, Catharine Douglass said she and other residents have been reporting the problem on nextdoor.com and contacting Council President Sherri Lightner’s office. Although minor progress has been made, Douglass said there is still more to do. “Trucks are consistently getting stuck at the base of Hillside Drive as they try to turn off Torrey Pines Road,” she said. “The effects of the SEE TRAFFIC, A18 A ‘stuck truck’ on Torrey Pines Road

Bike Path extension gets safety improvements BY ASHLEY MACKIN The Fay Avenue Bike Path extension was made a little bit safer last week, thanks to the efforts of residents Sally Miller and Stuart Gimber. At the June 15 La Jolla Traffic & Transportation (T&T) meeting, Miller reported that minor repairs were completed to make the presence of pedestrians and bicyclists more apparent. “I just found out there are new signs showing there is a pedestrian/bicycle crosswalk ahead (at key intersections); on La Canada, there is stenciling in the streets to let people know there is a crosswalk ahead; and the curbs have been painted bright red, which we requested so people would not park right in front,” she said. The team has been working since late last year to suggest safety improvements the city could implement, and hosted a walk with T&T chair Dave Abrams and traffic engineer Esmerelda White to point out the problems. The team asked the city to start with fixes that would be quick, inexpensive and not require a permit, so those that were dependent on painting, repainting or signs were the first to be implemented. “I consider this a victory, and I’m glad it worked,” Miller said. As soon as funding is available, the city will install textured curb ramps and bollards (short poles) to slow bicyclists as they exit the bike path. In some cases, the bike path exits or entrances are on either side of a street.

Artist appeals city findings on controversial piece Hearing officer has two weeks to decide whether Nasser Pirasteh’s ‘work’ is sculpture or structure
ASHLEY MACKIN
La Jolla artist Nasser Pirasteh argues his installation is an artistic sculpture and is not subject to the same Municipal Code violations as an accessory structure.
BY ASHLEY MACKIN A San Diego administrative hearing officer has requested up to 25 days to determine whether an installation in La Jolla artist Nasser Pirasteh’s front yard facing Nautilus Street is an artistic sculpture or an unpermitted accessory structure. Following a meeting held the morning of June 17 in a downtown San Diego office building, in which both Pirasteh and City of San Diego code enforcement officers had the opportunity to state their cases, hearing officer James Queenan said based on the “complexity of issues involved,” he would try to render a decision within 10 days, but asked for up to an additional two weeks. “For issues such as these, which are unique, (more so) than our garden variety code enforcement cases, I need more time to do legal research. I understand both parties’ positions … and I would feel more comfortable if I had more time to hit the books, so to speak … and think this through,” he said. Neither party objected. At issue is whether an approximately 10-foot cylindrical installation fronting Pirasteh’s property at 6707 Avenida Mañana at Nautilus Street is, as the city has determined, an unpermitted accessory structure placed in the front yard setback of the property. In March, the city notified Pirasateh that construction of the “accessory structure” in the front yard area was in violation of city code and would need to be removed. If confirmed as a structure, the city asks within 60 calendar days of hearing officer’s findings, for Pirasteh to move the structure from the front yard setback or be assessed civil penalties and administrative costs of up to $250,000. Administrative costs accumulated thus far that the city is asking Pirasteh to pay include $1,143.57, in additon to civil

penalties of $10,000 for being out of compliance for a recorded 40 days. With the city bearing the burden of proof, Code Enforcement Officer Lisa Poston, who carried out the initial and subsequent inspections, said she observed “a structure that had been built in the front yard setback of the property” and “exposed wires with a light bulb hanging from the interior center of the ceiling, electrical outlets, and a conduit running up and over the (adjacent) tree.” It was later noted that upon learning the electrical work would have required a permit, Pirasteh removed the wiring. Explaining the front yard setback issue, she added, “The curb to property line is 10 feet from the Nautilus Street side and the required front yard is 20 feet, which places the structure in the setback. …No accessory structure can be in that area.” Nasser’s wife Zahra Pirasteh asked if the same setback rules would apply if the piece was deemed a sculpture, to which city investigator Leslie Sennet, speaking with Poston on behalf of the city, replied that the code they were relying upon defined the piece as an “accessory structure.” Sennet explained, “If there is an item in the setback, the city would look at how we define (that item) and determine if it meets those definitions. We believe this item falls under the definition of an accessory structure, which is not allowed.” She added that the structure itself would not require a permit, but its placement and the unpermitted installation and removal of electrical wiring, is the issue. Arguing that the work is instead an artistic sculpture — not an accessory structure — and therefore not subject to the same Municipal Code violations, the Pirastehs, and
Baby Boomers in Position to Control Market’s Direction Baby boomers and other homeowners over the age of 55, which account for 67 million people in the United States, control about two-thirds of the nation’s aggregate home equity, which computes to about $8 trillion. These numbers put this group in a position to greatly influence where the housing market will go in the next decade. Whether they decide to move from their current homes or age in place, the cumulative impact of their decisions on mortgage demand, affordable housing supplies, and the housing options available to Millennials and other aspiring homeowners will be substantial.

approximately 15 supporters spoke at the hearing to voice the work’s contribution to the public art community. Queenan noted, “In the file, there are more positive comments from neighbors than negative.” Supporter Nile El Wardani, opening witness testimony, told the assemblage, “The big question for me is, is it a sculpture or is it a structure? This question has to be answered. “In my opinion, it is a sculpture. You can have a sculpture, such as a giant pot with a tree or a (conventional) sculpture there. If it is indeed a sculpture, it doesn’t seem to be breaking these rules. From an aesthetic point of view, I think we should have art in our lives. This piece is inspired by the ocean … and it’s like taking the ocean and putting it on the land. It’s gorgeous.” Citing as precedent — the 90 other sculptures in the yard — Wardani said, “It’s an artist’s home that is filled with art.” La Jolla gallery owner Andrea Mota added, “I know nothing about Mr. Pirasteh other than that he is an artist. His life is all about the art. For me, this piece is art. He has taken it upon himself to make his outdoor garden an outdoor museum. Maybe others don’t see it that way, but that’s how I see it.” Ivonne Bentley’s daughter, Skye, takes art classes with Nasser Pirasteh and attends Muirlands Middle School. “All of the school kids at Muirlands and (La Jolla) High pass by this house every day, it’s inspiring to them. It’s the most special piece of property in La Jolla. I understand there is some subjectivity as to whether something is a structure or sculpture, but I truly believe it’s a sculpture,” she said. Following the hearing, both Zahra and Nasser Pirasteh said they hope the piece would be deemed a sculpture in the eyes of the law.

Visitors, experts differ on ‘safe distance’ from sea lions BY ASHLEY MACKIN In the course of La Jolla Light’s voluminous reports on the sea lions at La Jolla Cove and harbor seals at Children’s Pool, we’ve often published the advice of marine mammal experts who advise keeping a safe distance from the animals. Monica DeAngelis, of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Federal Advisory Committee, regularly states that though some find them cute, sea lions are wild animals, and she recommends using caution when near them. Zach Plopper, with WildCoast, has told us, “Marine wildlife is something we need to respect and maintain our distance from and leave as is.” Most La Jollans get the message, but what about the town’s many tourists who don’t regularly read the Light? To find out what visitors see as “safe” sea lion proximity, as well as discover what brings them to La Jolla Cove, the Light stopped by last Wednesday afternoon. We observed that the “sea lion selfie” trend was alive and well — with many visitors taking up-close-and-personal photos, some using extended selfie sticks, and one man petting a sea lion for his shot. Visiting San Diego from St. Louis, so his wife could attend a medical conference downtown, Jacob Deetering said he heard La Jolla Cove was beautiful and wanted to make a daytrip to see it. “It’s cool to see the sea lions up close, which we didn’t know we would get to do, and we got some photos while we were here, but we tried to be

I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.” Deetering also said he noticed there wasn’t much informational signage with safety recommendations. “There could definitely be

Rene Jordan and her son, Amir, from South Carolina said they came to La Jolla because a cousin suggested it. When they heard there were sea lions here, Amir said, “We wanted to see them because we love animals.” His mother added, “We’ve heard there are a lot of people who want to get rid of these sea

lions, but this is their home, leave them be.” As far as a safe distance to maintain, Amir said, “I think sea lions are pretty tame compared to other wild animals, but we’re not going to get too close. We’ve seen people getting really close.” Return visitors Kim Lindoerfer and Laide Ayodeji from Washington D.C. expressed concern about the growing sea lion population. Said Ayodeji, “We came here last year and went snorkeling and the water was so clear, it was amazing. I knew we had to come back. It’s so relaxing here and there are so many

other things to do in the area.” But this year, she said, “It seems like the sea lions moved in a lot more. Last time it seemed like we could snorkel further without worry of being attacked. But we won’t be going in the water near the sea lions. We don’t know if they would attack or if the water is contaminated.” At this juncture, a lifeguard stationed at La Jolla Cove announced over the loudspeaker that sea lions are wild animals so visitors should maintain their distance. Marine Safety Lt. Rich Stropky later told the Light, “As lifeguards, we do our part to

FROM NO SIDEWALKS, A1 Heights, Country Club and The Muirlands were subdivided. “La Jolla Hermosa had sidewalks and it was very logical land plotting. (The hilly areas) were still very wild. I found some biographies of early golfers at the Country Club and they were very concerned about rattlesnakes,” Olten said. People used to hike or ride horses there, she continued, and so the early roads followed foot and horse paths. “People didn’t need a sidewalk to go up there because they were riding their horses,” Olten said. She said the geography and the density of the area were the main reasons sidewalks weren’t put in place. One of the exhibit curators, Diane Kane, added that La Jolla’s 1920s subdivisions were becoming more sophisticated. “One of the ways of increasing land value was by adding in Covenants, Codes and Restrictions (CC&Rs) — certain activities that would or would not be allowed at the lot, as part of your sales contract,” she said. For instance, the CC&Rs of Country Club didn’t allow farm animals, drilling for gas or oil, non-Caucasian residents other than servants, or temporary structures. Only single-family residences were permitted, and the minimum construction cost was $16,000. Kane added, “They were selling neighborhood, location and views, and the CC&Rs were able to enforce the neighborhood, so the area as a whole was developed as ‘very desirable.’ ” Land-use expert Mike Pallamary said he believes those neighborhoods were designed to prohibit pedestrians. “A lot of this was intended to capture some of the ambiance of Europe, so the homes are up in the hills, and back then, in the 1920s and ’30s, the notion of people walking up to those neighborhoods didn’t exist,” he said.
Sidewalks ‘yes’ or sidewalks ‘no’?
620 miles of sidewalk are ‘missing’ (non-existent) in San Diego, including in some areas of La Jolla.

nature, and they don’t anticipate the pedestrian traffic or the necessity of sidewalks. But then, there’s clearly a safety issue because if you don’t have sidewalks, how do you differentiate where pedestrians and cyclists and cars go?” She pointed out that a secondary issue involves wellness. “We have people with obesity issues and health problems related to that because, not only do we not encourage walking, we are not creating spaces that make it easy to do. Kids now get driven from home to school, instead of walking. “A trend that a lot of cities are investing in is called road-dieting,” Busell continued. “The idea is to look at all the pavement that we’ve been allocating for automobiles, and say, look, we need to create space so that we’re making it safer and we can accommodate pedestrians or cyclists. So, especially where roads are wider, what cities are doing is having two lanes go one direction, take one of those lanes, and make a new sidewalk, or a widened sidewalk, or a bike path with it.” However, roads in the hilly areas of La Jolla developed in the 1920s are not wide, nor do they have any space to spare. When asked if she would like to see sidewalks in Soledad-area subdivisions, Olten replied, “It would be an interesting concept, but I don’t know how the roads would accommodate that because they are so narrow that sometimes you can’t have two cars passing at the same time.” She said she used to walk her dog in the vicinity and on occasion, she would be forced to step into the side bushes to prevent being hit by a car. “The area traffic can be hazardous ... especially with trucks,” she added. Kane, who lives not far from Ludington Heights, is an advocate for pedestrian access. “I live in an area with no sidewalks, and there’s a need for a place along the street where people can walk safely. It’s hard in the hilly areas because the streets are narrow ... it’s a mess to try to bike or walk. It’s unsafe. There are heavy trucks and vehicles using the roads to go in and out of town and it’s a disaster waiting to happen. We need to do something to make this hilly area SEE NO SIDEWALKS, A10

FROM NO SIDEWALKS, A9 safe to walk,” she said. Kane is trying to create a network of private pedestrian trails. Her idea involves building paths through the undeveloped areas of Mount Soledad, but the City of San Diego opposes it because the area is considered a natural habitat. “But people walk there anyway,” Kane alleges. Pallamary said he collaborated with Kane on her path network project. “That would be a wonderful community asset; we need more interconnected paths ... but you have to understand that in contemporary public-access notions, if you are going to create public access it needs to be ADA compliant,” he said. The same goes for the allocation of sidewalks on hilly streets. “The first problem you would have is the extraordinary expense. Can you imagine a wheelchair going up The Muirlands?” Pallamary said.

The City of San Diego completed a sidewalk assessment in 2015 and found 620 “missing” sidewalks citywide. “While most roads have sidewalks on both sides, there are several areas within the city where sidewalks do not exist for one reason or another,” the survey determined. It calculated that San Diego has a street network of 2,774 miles, and 4,580 miles of sidewalks. Sidewalk assessments remind residents that new sidewalks must be paid for by the owner of the abutting land. However, the city is allocating funds for the construction of walking infrastructure. The $2,714,515 combined Fiscal Year 2015 and FY 2016 funding for new sidewalks will pay for approximately 3.5 miles of missing sidewalk. The cost to install new sidewalks varies greatly by location, design requirements and site conditions. Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s “Climate Action Plan” sets aside $1,658,619 for pedestrian improvements, including building 10,000 feet of new sidewalks. The construction of 0.1 miles of new sidewalk in La Jolla Mesa Drive is scheduled to start in 2017. For this project, the

city will invest $826,000 in building a new curb, gutter, sidewalk, barrier rail and retaining wall on the east side of La Jolla Mesa Drive, south of Deer Hill Court and north of Baja Mar. However, Pallamary said that it’s very unlikely new sidewalks will come to the hilly areas of La Jolla because the narrow roads make it extremely difficult to improve pedestrian access. The right-of-way in many streets is 25 feet wide, he said, and if you place a 5-foot-wide sidewalk on each side, there’s only 15 feet left for two cars to pass.
How much does a sidewalk cost?
The Light asked Pallamary to calculate the cost of building sidewalks in the area. To do so, he used the unit pricelist for land development from the County of San Diego, approved in June 2016. He included the grading and the curbing, and came up with $50 per foot of sidewalk. But the cost doesn’t end there. “I would say the most significant issue is the driveway problem,” Pallamary said, referring to the placement of mailboxes, gates, walls or other constructions in the public right-of way by landowners. “You might be spending another $10 for every foot to haul things out. Not all areas are like that, but some have pretty substantial gates,” he said. Some of these areas, Pallamary explained, would also need a retaining wall to hold the terrain along slopes. That would add another $45 per square foot. “So, you can see this cost just goes through the ceiling,” he said. “It’s unfortunate because it would have been nice if these streets were given sufficient width, but the city approved all those developments.” ■ Coming Next Week: In the course of this investigation, La Jolla Light found several public right-of-ways that, although are still on the maps “as easements,” don’t physically exist in neighborhoods. The second part of this report will explore what happened to those paths, who is responsible for maintaining them, and much more.

LA JOLLA NEWS NUGGETS Bookworms rejoice! Summer reading program is underway The annual Summer Reading Program is on through Aug. 15 at La Jolla’s Riford Library to encourage kids and teens to read for the chance to win prizes. “There is something called the ‘summer slide’ where students who don’t read over the summer can lose up to half a year’s worth of reading comprehension skills,” said youth services librarian Angie Stava. “So, it’s really important for students to read a lot” through the months of June, July and August. To participate, those under age 18 (even toddlers) can sign up at lajollalibrary.org or sandiegolibrary.org and log the books they’ve read. “If they read 10 books, they get a backpack full of prizes, such as San Diego Zoo passes, Air and Space Museum passes, Natural History Museum passes, toys and more,” she said. “Plus, they get entered into a raffle to win an iPad and they get to choose a book to keep from this library. The more you read, the more times you’re entered into the raffle and the more books you get to keep. “So if you read 50 books, you get five books to keep and your name goes into the raffle five times.” To further the fun, special events will be held at the library, 7555 Draper Ave., through the summer. A highlight includes Symphony Storytime (July 18) when members of the San Diego Symphony come, read and play music, in what Stava calls a “musical storytime mashup.” Find an event schedule at lajollalibrary.org

City Council appeals State Court ruling on La Jolla Seals Ordinance
Council president Sherri Lightner casts sole dissenting vote
By City News Service The San Diego City Council voted Tuesday, June 14 to appeal a recent Superior Court ruling that overturned the city’s ban on people going onto the beach at the Children’s Pool in La Jolla during harbor seal pupping season — Dec. 15 to May 15. On a 7-1 vote, the council voted to seek appellate review of a ruling by Orange County Superior Court Judge Frederick Horn that neither the city nor the California Coastal Commission — which ratified the law as the overseer of the coastline — followed correct administrative procedures with the federal government in developing the ordinance. The case will now go to the Fourth District State Court of Appeals. Council President Sherri Lightner, who represents La Jolla and has defended public access to the area, cast the dissenting vote, stating that she considers further litigation on this issue a waste of taxpayers money. Last month’s ruling, in the case of Friends of the Children’s Pool v. City of San Diego and the commission, handed a major victory to beach-access advocates, who have long argued that the site’s original use as a safe swimming area for youth should be maintained. The day after the decision was announced,
SUSAN DEMAGGIO
Children’s Pool (aka Casa Beach) in La Jolla has become a harbor seal rookery, which many locals resent because it limits their access to the ocean at a sheltered point. city attorney’s spokesman Gerry Braun said the judge would require cities to get federal government permission before making land-use decisions on the coast where seals congregate, which is not current law. The Children’s Pool was deeded to the city in 1931, but the seals moved into the area in the 1990s — leading to the controversy. The mid-December to mid-May ban was
instituted two years ago after several high-profile cases of people harassing the marine mammals. A rope barrier is kept up the rest of the year to discourage visitors from going near the seals. According to Coastal Commission staff, water quality is poor in the area because of the seals, so it is not a good place for

swimming anyway. Several nearby beaches with better water quality can be used, some within walking distance, staff members say. Opponents of the ban contend the seal population is exploding and they are not a threatened or endangered species. The public is still allowed access to the area’s breakwater for walking, fishing or viewing the seals.

FROM TRAFFIC, A1 ‘stuck trucks,’ is hours of eastbound traffic on Torrey Pines Road. The last incident was two weeks ago, which started at 7:30 a.m. and was not resolved until about 1:30 p.m. Also, ‘lookie loos’ traveling westbound are slowing traffic flow in the other direction … and the grooves created by these trucks at the base of Hillside are a hazard. If a cyclist gets a tire caught in that, it’s going to throw them under a car.” Part of the problem, she asserts, was insufficient signage. “The original sign issue was there was no sign westbound on Torrey Pines Road going toward the Village. There was a small sign going eastbound from the Village toward the freeways. But most of the trucks are going westbound, and the only sign that existed was on Hillside, which drivers couldn’t see until they executed the turn and had no recourse,” she said. The sign on Hillside is a faded, white regulatory sign that has an image of a truck with a “no” symbol (red circle with a slash) over it, announcing that no trucks over five tons are allowed. Above it, an advisory sign reads: “Tractors-Semis over 25 feet, Kingpin to rear axle not advised.” In the days before the T&T meeting, a new yellow advisory sign was placed on a Torrey Pines Road median facing westbound traffic, and the eastbound facing sign was replaced to be more visible. However, some say the “loose” and “vague” language does not fully address the problem. The new signage reads, much like the Hillside Drive sign, “Tractors-Semis over 25 feet, Kingpin to rear axle not advised,” to which Douglass said, “I think there are shorter trucks than 25 feet that cannot make
that turn.” Citing a provided photo, T&T member Patrick Ryan observed a recent “stuck truck” would neither be classified as a tractor nor a semi. Added member Eric Gantzel, “This is way too much information on a sign for people driving and trying to read at the same time … Two lines rather than five lines of information would be more effective.” Hoping for words clearer and stricter than “not advised,” Douglass said, “The new signage is certainly a step in the right direction, but improvements are still needed.” T&T member Ryan questioned whether a white sign with the symbol of a truck with the ‘no’ symbol over it might be easier to read while driving and easier to enforce. With white signs having different regulatory strength than yellow signs, he explained, “Yellow signs are advisories whereas white signs are law. A yellow diamond advisory might suggest taking a curved road at 25 miles per hour, but if the speed limit is 50, you can take that turn at 50. The yellow sign is just an advisory.” Using the white sign posted on Hillside Drive as an example of what is currently permitted, Ryan said, “The not-over-five-tons sign is not an advisory, that’s like a speed limit sign. So there may be some (law) that limits truck size to five tons. It would be worth asking.” T&T chair Dave Abrams committed to reaching out to the city for what is feasible, and the item was tabled to a future meeting.
In other T&T news: ■ Traffic calming in the Farms: About 10 residents of La Jolla Farms Road attended
the meeting to request traffic calming measures be implemented on their street. Introducing the request, resident Elsha Narachi noted the proximity to UC San Diego and frequency with which people walk the area to access Black’s Beach and the Ho Chi Min Trail. Without requesting any specific method, she said, “There is an extraordinary amount of traffic involving cars and pedestrians here … we’re concerned. The speed limit is 25 miles per hour, but the norm seems to be 35 or 45. We’re in need of traffic calming measures.” With residents observing that drivers are often looking at their phones or looking for coastal accesses while driving — rather than keeping their eyes on the ever-changing road conditions — many said they no longer feel their streets are safe. Resident Elizabeth Pritscher-Lewish said, “My kids are not allowed to ride their bikes on the street. My child has nearly been hit more times than I can count. Those who don’t regularly drive that way don’t realize the topography is one they need to be cautious on – there are straightaways, but there are also blind turns and (hills and dips).” Some suggested raised dots to alert drivers to stay in their lane and slow down, and illuminated speed limit signs. “I would like to start with the least intrusive, least expensive approach,” Narachi said. Abrams explained, “There are numerous ways to implement traffic calming, some more effective than others depending on the (situation). We will bring this to the city’s attention and relay your concerns.” The item will be heard again at a future meeting.
■ Girard Ave. gains a parking space: Hoping to convert a 20-minute loading zone space fronting the women’s clothing store, Draper and Damons, at 7857 Girard Ave. into a 90-minute parking space, store manager Sharon Reynolds spoke at the meeting. “There is 90-minute parking up and down the block, with the exception of this one commercial loading zone, which I believe was left over from when a bakery was at this location. Most of the commercial vehicles use a back alley for deliveries,” she said. “My customers want to park close, and they get parking tickets day in and day out. They come in the store, very angry, and address it with me constantly.” With reported support from the city, a motion to endorse the change passed unanimously. ■ Street stenciling: With recent approval for speed humps on West Muirlands Drive by T&T board and La Jolla Community Planning Association, resident Sally Miller said during public comment she was worried traffic would increase on nearby Nautilus Street. She would like to see stenciling on the street in select intersections that reads “Keep Clear,” so those turning from feeder streets would have a fair opportunity to enter traffic. “There is one (at Muirlands Vista Way), but where my street feeds onto Nautilus, I have to be very aggressive. If we have that stenciling it would make things easier,” Miller said. A progress report will be given at a future meeting. — La Jolla Traffic & Transportation next meets 4 p.m. Wednesday, July 20 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollacpa.org

Many boys go to the beach for the first time at the Boys to Men sponsored surf sessions.
COURTESY PHOTOS
Jason Bernardo at the 2014 event
Benefit for at-risk boys challenges surfers to catch 100 waves BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN Ten years ago, La Jolla resident Jason Bernardo attended a fundraising event for the San Diego non-profit Boys to Men (BTM). “They put up a video of boys talking about the program, and tears started coming down my cheeks. It just really grabbed me like no cause ever had. I went to Joe and Craig and said, ‘sign me up, how do I help?’” he said. Bernardo has collaborated with BTM since then as a mentor and a fundraiser. “There’s a miraculous sort of thing that happens when these boys get together and we create a sense of community, listen to them, and allow them to talk about what they are going through,” he said. The annual surf-a-thon 100 Wave Challenge to raise funds for BTM is set for Saturday, Sept. 17 in Mission Beach and surfers are needed join in by collecting pledges for every wave they ride that day. BTM provides youth from challenging neighborhoods and dysfunctional families with a support system that helps them work out their problems and make life-changing decisions. Craig McClain started the organization in 1996 with two friends, Herb and Joe Sigurdson. “We have a community of men and boys. We sit in circle and we talk about men stuff, boy stuff. We talk about lying, stealing, how to treat women, how to get along with teachers that we don’t like, how to shake a hand, how to admit when you are wrong ... and we tell the boys about the mistakes that we made when we were their age, and the ones that we are making now. We admit that we are not perfect men … and when they need help, we give it to them,” McClain said. He added that one of the biggest problems facing these teens is the lack of a masculine figure in their lives. “It’s not replacing a father, but it’s giving them a place for them to talk about the anger and sadness they have for not having one,” he said, reporting that 73 percent of the boys in the program are fatherless or have absentee fathers. The organization incorporated the program in middle schools and high schools in 2009. Today, more than 600 boys from 20 schools in San Diego County benefit from the weekly meetings held in school facilities. BTM also offers weekend retreats where,
O’Naje learned how to surf at BTM sessions.

McClain said, the boys turn into men. “It gives them a chance to tell us where they are, where they want to get, and what’s stopping them, and then we make a plan,” he said. Afterward, the boys become “journeymen,” and then are able to help others in similar situations. O’Naje Jones is a journeyman who has attended more than 10 camps and continues being a part of the BTM community. He talks to younger boys about their problems. “I tell them what I felt like when I experienced the same kind of situation and I give them my best opinion and how I dealt with it, what I did that was good and what I did that was bad,” O’Naje said. He will spend the summer working as an intern at Degree 33 surfboard store in Miramar. He said BTM helped him make the right decisions at significant moments in his life. “There’s always a decision like drugs,
and it’s like, people are here to support you and they think you’re going to do one thing and then you do another, and that causes disappointment, and you don’t want to disappoint your family,” he said. The 17-year-old learned how to surf in 2013 through the annual “100 Wave Challenge,” which brings the community together to surf and raise funds for the organization. In 2015 the event raised $353,000, and this year’s goal is to reach $500,000. One of the top five fundraisers in 2015 was La Jolla resident Bernardo. He teamed up with friends and co-workers to secure pledges for every wave they caught at the program’s final event, a surf-a-thon that last year drew 168 surfers. “People walk, and run and do lots of things for charity, and we said, wouldn’t it be great if we surfed?” Bernardo said. This year Bernardo has already started his
fundraising accepting pledges through bit.ly/1XZK5SB Leading up to the annual surf-a-thon Sept. 17, BTM holds bi-weekly surf nights to teach boys in the program how to surf. One of them will take place 5-7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 18 at La Jolla Shores. Non-surfers can raise funds through the program “Surf Angel.” Surfers who raise more than $1,000 will receive prizes, including wave-counting watches, wetsuits and surfboards. The top fundraising team will win a two-night surf weekend in Baja California. Bernardo suggested that for first-timers is better to launch a team with friends. “It is easier to have a few friends, you send some emails and make some phone calls. It helps to have accountability,” Bernardo said. ■ Want to help? To register or donate, visit 100wave.org and contact BTM at (619) 665-7999 or jq@boystomen.org

OUR READERS WRITE Creative solutions needed to end sea lion ‘crisis’ at La Jolla Cove Kudos to La Jolla Light for its recent stories shining light on the La Jolla Cove situation. Year after year, we wait for the City of San Diego to act in a timely manner, but we’re all getting gray while the number of sea lions and the areas they’ve made into their homes (not to mention the accidents and citizens’ health concerns) are growing. Some meetings on the subject look like the Montagues and the Capulets fighting! Please remember how that ended and let’s hope that our community will do better! Yes, this is a controversial situation with pros and cons. The animals are furry and funny, blessed with natural curiosity and expressive eyes that melt your heart, but they can also become aggressive and contribute to shark sightings! Additionally, they are carriers of phopivirus, related to human hepatitis A (transmitted through physical contact or consumption of water). Perhaps adults may swim successfully without swallowing a few drops, but what about children? Who’s ready to trade the beach summer joys for snapping a few sea lions photos? Not me! I doubt that we can afford to drive away any more businesses or lose tourism revenue from the visitors who seek fresh ocean air. Seems there’s always somebody who ends up frowning at any proposed solution to the sea lions and The Cove Stench. So how about one more idea? Since the animals can’t relocate to the Coronado Islands … why can’t we build an artificial island where seal pups and sea lions can poop freely and live happily ever after? In regards to another recent La Jolla Light story, “We’re backpedaling here!” May 2 issue, which talked about bicycle paths in La Jolla, I’ve been biking to work through our Village since 1986, and that puts me in the 1 percent category of San Diegans who do. Jaruska Solyova
Leave the animals at the beach in peace I am grateful to letter writer Nancy Lee for expressing concern for sea lions and their pups near The Cove. The suggested inhumane treatments (from residents at the recent La Jolla Town Council meeting) makes me both angry and sad at my neighbors. We can simultaneously enjoy our beautiful beaches while leaving wildlife at peace. Courtney Hibbard
Glad to see city appeal ruling on beach closure The Seal Conservancy thanks the San Diego City Council for voting 7-1 to appeal the Orange County Judge’s ruling that struck down the annual Seal Pupping Season Beach closure from Dec. 15 to May 15. This case now goes to the Court of Appeals with attorneys from the City Attorney’s office and the California Coastal Commission (CCC) taking the lead on the appeal. The closure was approved by San Diego’s Planning Commission, City Council, Mayor and the CCC. During the two years of its operation, this elegant compromise brought peace and stability to the beach for the harbor seals. The beach was closed for five months for the seals and open for seven months for beach access during the busy summer season. We are hopeful that justice will be served and that the horrible ruling that struck down the annual Seal Pupping Season Beach closure will be overturned and that these protections will continue for the harbor seals for when they need it the most. Adrian Kwiatkowski
Limit the number of events at Scripps Park In regard to last week’s story on a proposed jazz festival at Scripps Park, we do not need another pay-to-view event there, such as the car show that fences off our public park and takes it away from families, swimmers and snorkelers. The park is for the public, not private profit groups charging admission or fundraising. La Jolla’s summer Concerts by the Sea program is a great example of public enjoyment at Scripps Park for all. Donors, food sales and raffles support this great tradition. The extra traffic, noise and trash that a jazz festival would generate will be huge. Go to Coors Amphitheater or Coachella for a noisy and crowded scene. Jack Resnick
Time for leaf blower foes to unite In response to the letter writer, “Why haven’t we banned leaf blowers?” in the June 16 issue: No, you are certainly not alone. I think thousands of your neighbors agree with you. We just need to find each other. Leaf blowers produce noise and airborne contaminants. One gasoline powered leaf
blower produces as much pollution as 34 automobiles. Leaf blowers are not only a harmful nuance to residents, but they are also very hazardous to the operator, blowing rodent feces and other animal droppings, pollens, mold and fungal spores, insect eggs, gasoline remnants, and toxic chemicals into the air. I live in one of five multi-family buildings clustered around an alley. From my home office facing the alley, I see this five times every week: A gardener with a gasoline-powered leaf blower appears near one of the five buildings. Deftly, he blows grit, dust and a few odd leaves from the immediate area around one building toward the alley. A bit of the cloud settles in the alley, but a great deal of it rises high enough to deposit on my neighbor’s third-floor balcony, and a lot deposits on my second-floor balcony. The rest ends up in the immediate area around the other four buildings to be blown into the air again by the next leaf blower. Hundreds of cities have restricted leaf blowers and dozens have banned them outright, including Del Mar. If anyone wants to get involved in pursuing action here, send your name to leafblowersstink@gmail.com Robert Schreiber
Playscape shades would be great at Rec Center I was delighted to see Audrey Geisel of the Dr. Seuss Foundation and Douglas Dawson of the Ellen Browning Scripps Foundation made generous donations to the capital campaign for improvements to the La Jolla Rec Center. The article mentioned that the donations will be used for cosmetic changes to the facility, including replacing the audio system and increasing lighting to make the facility safer at night. While those improvements will be beneficial, what La Jolla Rec Center really needs is large shade canopies over the sandboxes and play structures. The Rec has direct sun exposure without any shade, and it’s often too hot for kids to play. A shade cover like the one covering Kellogg Park or canvas shade covers like they have at 4S Ranch Community Park in Rancho Bernardo or Shadow Hill Park in Santee would be great. This would improve the Rec while protecting kids who use the park.

Refugees share success stories at church breakfast event BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN When Walter Lam moved to San Diego from Uganda in 1986, his biggest cultural barrier was food. “I saw meat inside of two breads, something I’d never seen before, a hamburger! Now I like it, but at first, it took me a while to taste it,” Lam laughed. He is now CEO and founder of Alliance for African Assistance (AAA), a non-profit that annually helps 950 refugees from countries like Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Congo and Tanzania escape war, torture or economic hardship. Over the years, AAA has helped resettle more than 12,700 refugees. “These people come with a bag in their hands, nothing else. We meet them at the airport, take them to the homes we have prepared, and then set the adjustment period for them to become self-sufficient as soon as possible,” Lam said. AAA provides the refugees with housing, health screenings and health care, rent, transportation, enrolling children in school, learning English and translating, job assistance and training. On Monday, June 20, more than 100 people came together to celebrate their success stories at an International Refugee Day breakfast at La Jolla Presbyterian Church on Draper Avenue. During the event, 18-year-old Kaw Maeywa received a “Rising Star of the Year” award. Hailing from Thailand, Maeywa said his parents moved to San Diego in 2007 to provide him with an education. “It is a lot harder over there and every day is a struggle to get through. Now it’s a lot easier, and education is reachable. You just have to strike for it,” Maeywa said. He graduated from high school this year, and next year plans to attend Cal State Los Angeles.
Although his favorite subjects are art and math, Maeywa has not decided upon a major, but is thinking about criminal justice. Lam said AAA got its start at La Jolla Presbyterian Church. “From a tiny car garage, we have grown and we have three sites in San Diego, and offices Italy, London and Uganda,” he said. “Most of the furniture and clothing we give refugees to start their new lives comes from members of La Jolla Presbyterian church. It’s a very supportive community.” Lam pointed out that the refugees who come to San Diego, undergo a thorough process of scrutiny. “These people are so vetted for about two years before they are allowed to come to the United States. It’s a safe immigration program, and we are blessed that the City of San Diego is very welcoming, and the State of California is very welcoming,” he said. AAA also runs a sponsorship program for children in Uganda. For $25 a month, sponsors pay for a child’s education fees, uniforms, supplies, food and medical care. The organization sets up a correspondence between the child and sponsor, and at the end of the school year, the sponsor receives the student’s report card. The sponsored students are usually orphans who’ve lost their parents to violence or disease. If you are interested in sponsoring a child, call (619) 286-9052, ext. 300 or e-mail sponsorship@alliance-for-africa.org In 2015, according to the United Nations, 65 million people were uprooted from their homes — 21.3 million refugees, 3.2 million people in the process of seeking asylum, and 40.8 million displaced within their own countries. ■ Learn more about AAA at alliance-for-africa.org

Art Association hosts tribute to Gerrye Riffenburg BY WILL BOWEN La Jolla Art Association (LJAA) presents through Sunday, June 26, the one-woman show, “Gerrye Riffenburg: A Retrospective,” to honor the memory of the late artist. It features Riffenburg’s plein air landscapes, seascapes, portraits and still lifes. Gallery hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday-Sunday at 8100 Paseo del Ocaso in La Jolla Shores. Riffenburg founded PAPASAN – the Plein Aire Painters Association of San Diego. She was also a member of the LJAA for some 25 years. Her works were often featured at the Cosmopolitan Art Gallery in the Village. The show was curated by her husband, Robert H. Riffenburg, author of the textbook “Statistics in Medicine.” He designs medical research protocols and interprets the results of research conducted at Balboa Naval Hospital. Riffenburg said his wife was born Geraldine Olive Harlow in 1929, on the Richmond, Virginia estate granted to her family in Colonial days by the King of England. Her father was a military man who became a captain of firefighters. She attended college at William & Mary where she earned a B.S. and an M.S. in clinical psychology. Her master’s thesis, “Responses to Color Combination as Indices of Personality Traits,” was published in the Journal of General Psychology in 1959.
‘Last Light’ by Gerrye Riffenburg She met her future husband in college, and he went on to earn a Ph.D. in Statistics at Virginia Tech. The Riffenburgs ended up in San Diego as the result of his summer research at Scripps Institute of Oceanography and the Navy Lab on
Point Loma. They bought the first house built in University City. In the early years of their marriage, Gerrye was too busy raising five children to pursue art. But in the late 1970s, she went back to school at

George Leonard Pinnell Jr.
March 5, 1946 - June 12, 2016
October 8, 1928 - May 3, 2016
La JOLLa — George Leonard Pinnell Jr. was born in the original Scripps Hospital in La Jolla and passed away at his home in La Jolla surrounded by his wife, Kathy, and daughters, Lori and Leslie. He was a graduate of La Jolla High School where he was a star football, basketball, baseball and shot put athlete who earned the nickname “The Vanishing Viking” for his exploits on the football field. He was also senior president of the 1946 graduating class. George always had a close connection to La Jolla where he worked as a La Jolla postal carrier early in his career and later as a pharmaceutical representative. One of his great passions was coaching. He coached Pony League in La Jolla for 13 years during the 1960s and 70s. George was asked to be an assistant varsity baseball coach by Bob allen, the head
varsity baseball coach at La Jolla High. He accepted the offer and coached on a volunteer basis for 17 years, retiring on his 80th birthday. He was preceded in death by his parents, allene Clark Pinnell and George L. Pinnell Sr., and son, Kenneth a. Pinnell; and his mother, audrey Jewell Pinnell. He is survived by his wife, Kathryn Garcia Pinnell; daughter, Laura Elena (Kenji Carlos) Nishihara, and their son, Kenzo Carlos Nishihara;
daughter, Leslie (James) Van Epps, and their son, Todd Van Epps, and his fiancé, Stephanie Micek; Melissa austin (abraham) Lopez, and their daughter, Sierra Hollis Lopez; and grandson, Robert Christian Gonzales, who lived with his grandparents and was a vital participant in the loving care and comfort of his grandfather.The family would like to thank George’s caregivers: two women who became our friends and adopted family members, Melissa Ducey and Christine Lucus Goodwin; our two night caregivers from Meridian Home Care, Raul Dean and Nick Ruehle, who were very professional and caring and always reliable; Scripps Home Health Care and Scripps Hospice, Dr. Susan Bodtke, Nurse Rebecca Scott and home health aide, Jeremy Bibelheimer. also, George’s team of doctors who attended to him at Scripps Prebys Cardiovascular
San Diego State University where she earned a B.A. with honors in Visual Art and was awarded a community college teaching credential. LJAA treasurer Rae Ann Marks described Gerrye as “kind, elegant and soft spoken … an outstanding artist because of the way she painted shadows, which were always technically perfect.” Riffenburg said Gerrye was very concerned about artists trying to make a living at painting because with the costs of paint and canvas, and the percentage galleries took, there wasn’t much left money left to live on. On more than one occasion, she flatly refused to sell one of her paintings to someone haggling her down in price because she said that disrespected all the time and costs involved in creating a work of art. “You really want to sell your work to someone who will love it just as much as you love it! That’s the way Gerrye and I felt about it,” Marks said. —Next up on the LJAA calendar is the annual fundraiser where art lovers can acquire a painting valued at up to $2,000 for $200. Patrons buy one of 50 raffle tickets for $200, and then select the painting desired in the order tickets are drawn at the raffle July 9. Sixty works of art have been donated to the cause by LJAA members. To view the works available, visit lajollaart.org
Institute, Dr. David Cohen, Dr. Scott Simon and Dr. Pauline Q. Uddin. For years and especially the last five months of George’s life, Christine, our daughter Lori, our grandson Robbie, and myself made up the core team. I speak for all of us when I say it was truly our honor and pleasure to take care of the man we so deeply loved and respected for how he lived his life and the love and emotional security he provided us. George will always be “our loved one.” a Celebration of Life to honor the generous, giving, steadfast and loving life of George L. Pinnell Jr. will be held in July 2016 for family and close friends. In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate a donation to La Jolla High baseball. Please sign the guest book online at legacy.com/ obituaries/lajollalight.

BUSINESS BRIEFS Researcher’s grant to better study Parkinson’s disease
Dr. Alessandro Sette, a vaccine biologist at the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, was awarded a $400,000 grant by The Michael J. Fox Foundation to identify biomarkers that gauge the immune system’s contribution to Parkinson’s disease in the hopes of developing reliable diagnostic tools as well as a roadmap for new types of drugs that can stop or slow disease progression. “Parkinson’s disease is notoriously difficult to diagnose during the early stages of the disease when available therapeutic interventions to slow neurodegeneration have shown the best results,” said Sette, who heads the Center for Infectious Disease. “We hope that our research will lead to the development of a diagnostic tool based on molecular biomarkers that reliably track the progression of the disease
before clinical symptoms manifest themselves.” Dr. Sette’s collaborator, neuroscientist Dr. David Sulzer at Columbia University Medical School, recently showed that at least half of all Parkinson’s patients show autoimmune responses to a fragment derived from a protein that has been implicated in the disease. This finding suggests that the immune responses activated in at least this subset of Parkinson’s disease patients resemble those driving autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis or type 1 diabetes.
MCASD Collectors Group acquires four new works
At the Selection Dinner on June 8, the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) International Collectors and Contemporary Collectors voted to purchase new works by four artists for the museum's Permanent Collection: • Ellsworth Kelly's photograph,

BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT aper Cities” is a multimedia puppet production that’s like nothing you’ve seen before. An ongoing work-in-progress by “hybrid puppeteers” Iain Gunn and Bridget Rountree, its seventh variation was recently staged at Bread & Salt in Logan Heights. Now “Paper Cities: Variation 8” is coming to the San Diego International Fringe Festival, where it will offer five performances at the downtown Spreckels Complex, June 24-July 3. In the beginning, there was the workshop version. In 2013, Gunn and Rountree, co-founders of the alt-puppet theater Animal Cracker Conspiracy, both received Creative Catalyst Grants from the San Diego Foundation. Iain’s project — with Bridget collaborating and La Jolla Playhouse as sponsor — was the first incarnation of “Paper Cities,” presented at the Playhouse in June 2014. The show, according to its creators, transforms the story of urban development — a mash-up of commerce, architecture and politics — into poetry, movement and sound. Questioning the precarious foundations on which our man-made world has been constructed, it asks: Have we lost our connection to nature? How can we survive the onrushing megalopolis? What “Paper Cities” really is: it’s compelling, uncategorizable theater, a delight to the eye, ear and mind. The original workshop SEE PAPER CITIES, B6

Aging Out
B
La Jolla Cultural Partners
oth my husband Olof and I will turn 69 this year and for the first time, we’ve started talking about “aging out” — just being too old to do things. It’s not as though this thought hasn’t occurred to us before. For example, we decided some years ago that we’d aged out of hang gliding, which was fine since we’d never aspired to do it anyway. But what about the stuff we might actually still want to do? The issue first came up when the last of our cockatiels died last year at the age of 21. Our older son, Rory, decided to breed cockatiels back when he was nine. He’s now in his mid-30s and married to a cat person in Santa Cruz, but we still had the cockatiels. Those little guys can live to 25. As I’ve often counseled parents of elementary school-age kids: never let your kids get a pet with a life expectancy greater than yours. Over the years, our outdoor aviary has also acquired parakeets (often neighbors’ kids’ ill-considered bird buys). Somehow — we’re not sure how — we’ve become an avian social service agency. Our tiny grandkids love the aviary and they especially love naming the birds when
new ones show up. When we were down to our last cockatiel, they suggested that we get another one to keep it company. But Olof and I realized: we’ve aged out of cockatiels. We decided we probably still have enough life expectancy for parakeets as they tend to live to be only about seven. We like to think we’re good for that long. We ran into the aging issue again when we had to replace the beautiful 35-foot tree in our front yard that succumbed to some un-named but pernicious borer. As I wrote a few weeks ago, we did everything we could, hiring expert after expert to save it. We finally had to admit that our beloved tree, under whose welcome shade we had spent hundreds of hours, had gone to the big forest in the sky. We really wanted some sort of tree there but were hit with the realization that unlike its predecessor, which we watched grow over the last 43 years, the replacement was not going to be that big in our lifetime even with bionic fertilizer. We’d aged out of the possibility of 35-foot trees. Or maybe we were just financially ineligible for 35-foot trees (this is, after all, La Jolla). But might

Parakeets Green Bean and Banana, were named by the grandkids. we still have the life expectancy to see, say, a 15-footer? The kids, of course, accuse both of us of spending too much time doing what they call “rehearsing for death.” But Olof is the first man in his family to ever live to 65 (nasty familial affliction) while my mother died at 54 and my grandmother at 48. Actuarial tables? Bwahahahaha. It’s hard not to feel like we’re on borrowed time. Every birthday we do our little happy dance around the table singing “Woo-hoo! Against all odds!” (In our circumstances, fun is where you find it.) We really wish the cremation people would stop sending us mail. We’ve been confronting the aging-out issue yet again recently after our beloved bulldog, Winston, died recently. We inherited him from our younger son (see birds, above; are we seeing a pattern here?) but fell totally in love with him and have been completely heartbroken
since his very unexpected passing this spring. Frankly, at the moment, the only dog we want is the one we can’t have but many people have encouraged us to transfer the profound heartache we feel about Winston into love for another dog, preferably a rescue. But while Winston died prematurely, dogs live to 15 years. Have we aged out of dogs? Well, puppies certainly. Besides, we still have Winston’s teeth marks in the furniture from his puppyhood visits. Given how much time and money we spent dealing with Winston’s endless allergy problems, taking on an older animal with health issues wouldn’t be our first choice either. “So,” I queried Olof the other night at dinner, “what age dog have two people who have already outlived their genes NOT aged out of?” Olof pondered this. “A 14-and-a-half-year old with cancer?” Our biggest concern, of course: What would happen to the little guy if we crumped before it did? Our friends say that there is an easy answer to that: Leave the dog to the kids in our will. After 30 years of birds and one problematic bulldog, they wouldn’t dare say no. (Would they?) Still, we’re loath to take on an animal whose reasonable life span we couldn’t see through. Meanwhile, we recently channel surfed into a Motocross competition on TV. We looked at each other. “Definitely aged out of Motocross,” we concluded. And we couldn’t be happier about it. — Inga’s lighthearted looks at life appear regularly in La Jolla Light.

The Kitchen Shrink’s Salmon Cobb Salad
Easy Summer Salad Suppers
N
ot all salads are created equal. While some are skimpy heaps of rabbit greens, others are bountiful, beautiful offerings, substantial enough for the main event for lunches or dinners. Here are some classics amped up with hearty, lean proteins and crunchy, sweet and savory goodies to kick off the summer season. Hail Caesar: America’s beloved Caesar salad, popularly prepared tableside at upscale eateries is actually the serendipitous creation of Italian born Caesar Cardini at his Tijuana restaurant in 1924. According to his daughter Rosa, her father whipped up the concoction to feed his famished friends who visited his establishment after a July 4th flurry of patrons left a shortage in the kitchen. He tossed the remaining ingredients, including Romaine leaves, croutons, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon and coddled eggs (boiled in the shell gently for one minute) at his guests’ table for culinary showmanship. Today the eggs are usually omitted in the preparation of a Caesar salad to prevent foodborne illnesses. To transform this classic into a full-on meal, top with a grilled chicken breast. An occasional seafood Caesar with wild caught jumbo shrimps or lobster can be an enjoyable change-up. That’s Greek to Me: The original rustic Greek salad called horiatiki, which translates to
“peasant salad” is a blend of Kalamata olives, tomatoes, feta cheese, cucumbers and onions dressed in an herb-infused olive oil. The American version adds chopped lettuce leaves, bell pepper rings, and caper berries in a red wine vinaigrette. Add grilled Alaskan halibut, deep-sea scallops, or a lemon garlic-marinated chicken breast to create an abundant plate. So Nice: The traditional Salade Nicoise from Nice is a Mediterranean treat showcasing fresh market produce, and herbs and spices from the Cote d’Azur. While there are regional variations, a popular version blends butter lettuce with fingerling potatoes, French green beans, black olives, ripe tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and a grilled tuna fillet dressed in a mustard vinaigrette. While tuna is typically high in mercury, you can swap it out for safer fish like wild caught salmon, herring, sardines or anchovies. A Yen for Asian: Toss some protein-rich buckwheat or soba noodles with edamame, shredded cucumber, and daikon radish in a sesame soy dressing for a light yet satisfying Japanese salad. For carnivorous cravings add teriyaki flat iron or skirt steak strips (grass-fed and organic, where possible). Best Thing Since Sliced Bread: The Panzanella from Tuscany transforms stale bread into a delightful summer salad by blending

■ Ingredients: • 1 head Romaine lettuce (cut into strips) • 1 head watercress, torn into bite-size pieces • 1 pound grilled wild, skinless salmon, crumbled (marinated in virgin olive oil, lemon juice and desired spices) • 1/4 pound cooked turkey bacon, crumbled • 1 vine-ripened tomato, diced • 1 avocado, diced • 3 hard-boiled eggs, sliced • 1/4 pound goat cheese, crumbled • 1/2 red onion, diced • 1/4 cup vinaigrette dressing ■ The dressing: • 1/4 cup vinegar (champagne, red wine or balsamic) cubes of unsalted Italian bread soaked in olive oil and balsamic vinegar with tomatoes, fresh basil, red onions, and cucumbers. Or dial up this classic with chunks of Parmesan cheese or buffalo mozzarella, capers, olives and choice seafood from crab claws to calamari. Can’t Top That: For an extra crunch and dose of protein, add a handful of roasted walnuts, pecans or almonds to assorted salads; for sweet notes and an oomph of Vitamin C toss in some grilled peach slices, pineapple spears, mango chunks or fresh figs; and for finishing touches sprinkle sesame or pumpkin seeds along with dried cherries or cranberries on top. More the Berrier: In honor of the recent Berry Good Food Foundation’s annual summer soiree at the jaw-dropping La Jolla estate of

Cobb Up: The traditional Cobb salad created in 1926 by Bob Cobb, owner of the legendary Brown Derby in Los Angeles who threw in everything but the kitchen sink – leftover avocados, tomatoes, chicken, bacon, onions, Romaine lettuce, hard-boiled eggs and blue cheese arranged meticulously on a plate. You can tweak this classic and substitute grilled salmon for the turkey or chicken, turkey bacon for oink bacon, crumbled goat cheese instead of the Roquefort, and an olive oil vinaigrette rather than the blue cheese dressing.

Home care can keep older adults in their homes. 9 out of 10 of seniors prefer to age in their own homes. Hiring a caregiver provides the extra support an older adult may need to stay where they most prefer: at home. Home care helps seniors stay independent longer. A caregiver provides support with activities of daily living, while encouraging mental and physical stimulation and overall wellness. They also promote safety in the home by preventing falls or other accidents.

MAURICE HEWITT
Violinist/sound designer Kris Apple, and a lifesize coyote puppet also star in ‘Paper Cities.’ FROM PAPER CITIES, B1 production was wordless, with pre-recorded music. The later variations, directed by Liam Clancy, head of the Graduate Dance program at UC San Diego, are both freer and more fully developed, and now include violinist/sound designer Kristopher Apple onstage with Rountree and Gunn — an excellent addition to the already strong team of two. The show is a magical mix of unusual puppets, oversized masks, cardboard construction cranes, animated saws, flying stick-birds, toppled towers of books, live-in suitcases, coyote calls, an actual paper city, poetry in words and motion, fragments of real and imagined family histories, and filmed projections. And a one-woman clean-up crew, because “no mess is too big to clean up.”
The architect is one of the puppet characters in the show.
And there’s audience participation, too. If it happens. Because no two performances are exactly alike. “The elements are the same, but how we get there changes,” Rountree said. After several years with “Paper Cities,” they’re improvising more, and feeling comfortable about it. “The show is like masala, the mixture of Indian spices,” said Gunn. “We keep folding new things in, and trusting that something good will emerge.” Rountree added, “It becomes a collaboration between us and the audience. It feels more real, and more risky, so much better than just saying something about the environment, and about cities.” There’s a line from a Joyce Carol Oates’ essay in “The Profane Art” that refers to “a didactic ... sensibility in the service of an anarchic imagination.” Seeing “Paper Cities 7”
RACHEL DRAGONFLY
recently brought that quote to mind. Half the audience that night stayed for the talkback, and all were enthusiastic, asked really good questions and made interesting comments, including the youngest, about 10 years old. After the Fringe Festival, PC goes on tour; a website is planned, so you’ll be able to follow the show’s adventures online. But don’t miss seeing it live, real and risky, at the Fringe. ■ IF YOU GO: San Diego International Fringe Festival presents “Animal Cracker Conspiracy’s Paper Cities: Variation 8,” 6 p.m. June 24, 11:30 a.m. June 25, 9 p.m. June 28, 4 p.m. July 2, and 7:30 p.m. July 3 at RAW SPACE in the Spreckels Complex, 921 1st Ave., San Diego.

The gala featured a cocktail reception, live and silent auctions, dinner, and of course, the private concert. Cheap Trick, originally from Rockford, Illinois, was formed in 1973. It’s biggest hit is arguably, “I Want You to Want Me.” Promises2Kids was founded more than 30 years ago as the Child Abuse Prevention Foundation of San Diego County.

"The ‘Life Speaks’ exhibition is a celebration of color, with a wonderful variety of paintings by some very talented local artists,” Lunau commented. “I think La Jolla is lucky to have such a good gallery exhibition space in their library and I enjoyed being part of the jury.” Powers pointed out that all-women shows are au courant these days. “Much like some recent exhibitions have done in New York, Los Angeles, Miami and London, we will celebrate this interesting feature of ‘Life Speaks’ (an all-female show) and certainly present the work of established artists known

to La Jollans, as well as some emerging new artists that we hope everyone will enjoy.” As a premise to the show, artists were asked to submit paintings in which the subject matter of their still life “speaks to something in their own life.” Jurors looked for paintings that communicated that feeling with the symbolism in the arrangement of objects, something viewers might share in response. ■ IF YOU GO: The artists reception is free and open to the public, 2-4 p.m. Sunday, June 26.

La Jolla Ikebana Master takes the stage at County Fair BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT Twenty years ago, shortly after she first came to this country, Jackie Zhang fell in love. Twice. First with Ronald Betts, the La Jolla-based chemist who became her husband, and then with Ikebana, the Japanese art of flower arranging that she says changed her life. In Beijing, for over a decade, she taught political science and economics at a top university; restricted in how and what she could teach, she hoped to come to America, finish her Ph.D., and become a bridge between East and West. Having gone through the difficult times of the Cultural Revolution and Tiananmen Square, she was ready for a change. “They call our generation ‘the best generation’ in China, because we experienced the worst times and didn’t collapse,” she said. “We stood up, we survived, and we learned how to be good human beings. I have a scar in my heart that can never be healed, but in America, with Ikebana, I found serenity.” She met her husband at a party in San Diego. “Ronald was from Iowa, where they only saw Chinese people in movies, but he was very interested in Chinese culture,” she said. “He had gone to China twice, and he dreamed that maybe someday he’d find a Chinese lady.” Around the same time, a Chinese friend took her to see a one-woman Ikebana show in Mission Valley. The woman was a Japanese grandmaster, and Zhang immediately asked to become her student. Although she hadn’t heard the word “Ikebana” before, the show brought back memories: as a young teenager in Beijing, Zhang had taken lessons in the art from a Japanese neighbor, a veterinarian to whom she had brought her ailing cat. “It was winter, but he had a beautiful flower arrangement in his window,” she recalled. “It was made out of vegetables, cabbages mostly, and I’d never seen anything like it. So simple and elegant,
The Ikebana team: Kiki Zhong, Ping Wang, Kim Minakoshi, Mary Rawlings, Jackie Zhang, Tracy Guo and Vivian Ho two or three branches full of energy — the feeling of spring coming. When he saw how interested I was, he said he’d show me how to do it, but he used the Chinese word, so I never knew it as ‘Ikebana.’ About once a month, when he had time, he’d give me lessons. Then the Cultural Revolution came, and he disappeared. All foreigners were forced to leave; they were said to be spies.” In San Diego, the more Zhang learned about Ikebana, the more devoted she became. “The power of art and nature, the appreciation of beauty — there’s so much peacefulness in that,” she said. Part of the Ohara School, which blends traditional and modern styles, she has now been teaching Ikebana for more than 15 years. Although she says things are better than ever in China these days, Zhang loves her

life here. In 2001, she was designated a Master Ikebana teacher; in 2014, several years after forming the Sakura Ikebana Group in La Jolla, she was honored as a top-rank master by Ohara School headquarters in Tokyo. That same year, she was invited to start Ikebana Day at the San Diego County Fair, bringing students along for displays and demonstrations. Ikebana Day is now a popular annual event, and on June 12, she gave a presentation on the Flower & Garden Show Stage, completing eight

For all who were watching, it was an impressive display by a modern master of the centuries-old Ikebana ideals of space, form and balance. ■ Learn Ikebana design: Jackie Zhang teaches Saturday Ikebana classes at the library, 7555 Draper Ave., in series of three.

Folktales told in ‘The Last Tiger in Haiti’at Playhouse BY DIANA SAENGER
Jackie with Ronald Betts, her ‘Ikebana husband,’ who helps carry water, cut branches and transport heavy containers. ‘He’s 100 percent supportive,’ she said.
“A beautiful example of storytelling,” is how La Jolla Playhouse Artistic Director Christopher Ashley classifies ‘The Last Tiger in Haiti,’ running June 28-July 24 in the Mandell Weiss Forum Theatre on the UC San Diego campus. Written by Jeff Augustin (“That High Lonesome Sound”) and directed by Joshua Kahan Brody (“The Nightingale” and “The Who & The What”), the world premiere is a co-production with Berkeley Repertory Theatre. Brody said he felt an immediate attachment to the script when his friend and schoolmate Augustin – influenced by his Haitian heritage – asked him to direct it. ‘The Last Tiger in Haiti,’ begins on the last night of Kanaval, a celebration held over several weeks each year that leads up to Mardi Gras, where five children become “restaveks” – child slaves indentured in servitude. “I love this play because it’s highly theatrical without being a spectacle,” Brody said. “I enjoy the storytelling

elements, and this is an important issue. I didn’t know there were child slaves still in Haiti.” As the story unfolds, the Haitian children (played by adults) are given to slightly better-off families, who then (in theory), are supposed to provide a better education for them. But instead, these families make them work hard and some are sexually abused until they are 18 SEE TIGER, B21

Accident & Injury Legal Advice 858.551.2090
Avoid El Niño Car Breakdowns with a Spring Cleaning Car Checkup Spring is the time to thank your hardworking vehicle for a great performance over the winter by doing a maintenance overhaul. There are several things you can do yourself and with the help of a mechanic to ensure that your vehicle is prepared for top performance this spring and summer.
Use the following tips to manage your vehicle effectively and avoid accidents and expensive maintenance concerns down the road. Fluid Levels Keep an eye on your brake fluid, antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, engine oil and transmission fluid. It’s a good idea to consider a brake fluid flush as well to make sure your brakes are working in top condition. Wires, Plugs and Batteries Anything older than three years old should be replaced as should any weak wires, plugs or batteries. Hoses and Belts If your belts are soft, brittle, cracked or worn, consider replacing them. Anything
older than five years old should also be replaced. Tire Pressure Make sure that all of your vehicle’s tires, including the spare, are properly balanced and inflated. Making this a habit will decrease the chances that you’ll find yourself on the side of the road with a flat tire. Brakes A brake pad change and an inspection for the brake system can work miracles for your San Diego vehicle. This is especially true if heavy rains are anticipated, because you’ll rely on the braking system performing at 100%. Engine Filter It’s a good time to replace your engine
filter as you head into the spring, as it’s likely that there has been a lot of build up over the winter months. Wheel Alignment and Suspension Any time you hit major potholes, you can do significant damage to your struts and shocks. Make sure you ask your mechanic to conduct an inspection to avoid bigger and more expensive problems down the road. After a season of tough conditions, it’s a good idea to have your wheels aligned properly. Following these tips can minimize your maintenance costs overall as well as decrease the chances of you being involved in an accident as a result of poor vehicle maintenance.

tacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

JIM CARMODY
Playwright Jeff Augustin (left) and director Joshua Kahan Brody work on the Playhouse's world premiere of ‘The Last Tiger in Haiti.’ years old, when they are set free. “As part of the tradition the kids tell stories,” Brody said. “When a storyteller wants to tell a story he will say ‘krik.’ Someone who wants to hear the story will say ‘krak.’ It’s kind of a competition to see whose story is the best. In ‘The Last Tiger in Haiti,’ a series of things change and lives are drastically altered by betrayals and a battle of wills. It’s all about a means to survive.” The cast features Brittany Bellizeare as “Rose,” Clinton Roane as “Emmanuel,” Andy Lucien (DNA New Work Series) as “Max,” Jasmine St. Clair (“Sideways”) as “Laurie” and Reggie D. White as “Joseph.” The creative team includes scenic designer Takeshi Kata, costume designer Dede Ayite, lighting by Alexander Nichols, sound designer Nick Drashner, dramaturg Gabriel Greene and stage manager Matthew Melchiorre. Brody said he feels a real passion for the play and its message, which goes beyond Augustin’s proficiency with subtext, language and imagery. “It’s a story about healing, love, and why and how we’re able to love people who have done us wrong and abused and betrayed us,” Brody said. “So it’s also about forgiveness and who has the right to tell that story, which right now, I think is a very important question.” ■ IF YOU GO: “The Last Tiger in Haiti,” runs June 28-July 24 in the Mandell Weiss Forum Theatre at La Jolla Playhouse, 2910 La Jolla Village Drive, UCSD campus.
