The concert and barbecue is intended to be a first step, a proverbial coming to the table, for people to eventually have an in-

depth dialogue about race relations in the United States. “A lot of issues get resolved when we take the time to get to know one another. We find that we are more alike than we are different,” said Prince Chapel pastor Charles Norris. “We want everyone to come, the last thing we need is a homogeneous gathering. That’s the problem, everyone has those little factions, and so we hope this will be the opportunity for people to blur the lines.” La Jolla Presbyterian Rev. Paul Cunningham added, “It’s a community event sponsored by the two churches. Everyone is invited, no matter what their background or faith.” Once everyone has had a chance to get to know one another, a series of lectures will be scheduled to open up the dialogue about race.

5 La Jolla ‘kittens’ appear in ‘CATS’ at Lyceum Theatre By Ashley Mackin

ndrew Lloyd Weber’s musical “CATS” is such as a treasured Broadway staple, the expression “It’s better than CATS” has been coined to describe something truly exceptional. Based on T.S. Eliot’s book of poems “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats,” the production is the third-longest running show on Broadway. California Youth Conservatory Theatre (CYC) brings “CATS” to San Diego with five young La Jolla actors in the cast — along with students in high school and adult actors. The production also features San Diego vocal coach Leigh Scarritt and director Shaun Evans as some of the big cats.

From Interfaith, A1 The idea has been a long time coming, the two men said, and spurs from discussions the two churches were already having. Cunningham said at the Presbyterian Church, there is a men’s group that meets and occasionally hosts a speaker. Norris was the speaker after the August 2014 unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, in which protests/riots broke out after the shooting death of African-American Michael Brown by a white police officer. “There was and is an underlying desire for people to know more and have a better understanding when these tragedies occur (and to understand the social issues that lead up to them),” Norris said. “For us, we were looking at how to get past the two churches and engage our community in that conversation,” Cunningham said. When a second racially based tragedy struck Charleston, South Carolina in June — when a lone white gunman killed nine people in an African Methodist Episcopal Church — Norris said it was apparent there was a serious issue to explore. Two days after the Charleston shooting, Prince Chapel held a prayer vigil that was open to all members of the community. “I was awestruck with the response,” Norris said. “The church was filled with people and most of the churches in the Village were represented. That’s hasn’t happened since I’ve been here. So I thought, let’s not have this stop. I found myself asking, what is it going to take to get everyone together? What is a gathering like the one we want

The specifics of the lectures have not been confirmed, and will likely be decided after the concert barbecue, Cunningham said. “This event will be the beginning. We don’t know exactly where it will go or how it will get there, but we do know that we all have stories to tell, and it’s important to hear those stories. It’s also important for our children to hear those stories, and to see adults trying to have a dialogue and walk through (any discomfort). That is valuable.”

Hoping there will be a special focus on young people, Norris said the youth of today are exposed to racial occurrences “flooding the headlines,” and an everchanging culture of equality issues. He cited for example, the footage from 2006 that recently came to light showing professional wrestler Hulk Hogan using racial slurs, including the N-word, about his daughter’s then-boyfriend. Additionally, Norris recalled reading about an African-American child’s birthday party in Georgia this July that was interrupted by a truck full of men waving Confederate flags. “These things are happening all the time — and it’s more than racism, we have

marriage equality issues and gender issues to look at. These issues are going to keep coming, so we need to have a forum for discussions in an encouraging, non-punitive environment,” Norris said. “I don’t think we realize how much our young people are struggling with these issues. … Actions speak louder than words and they take a lot of cues from us. They need to see their parents participate in something like this.” He added that “Societal norms we thought would never change are going left and right,” and an added focus could be on language and how it changes, and how words can hurt people, in an effort to curtail the behavior. Cunningham added, “This is a hard thing, that’s the bottom line. To have courageous conversations is hard because both sides deserve to be heard even though hard things are being said … it could take years for progress to be made, but if we never try, than we are not fulfilling our mission.” Both the concert barbecue and subsequent dialogues are open to people of any faith — or none — and Norris said better understanding of cultural issues could strengthen La Jolla as a whole. “We all believe in love, kindness and forgiveness. You put whatever denominational label you want, but at the end of the day, we all believe the same things. I try not to let theology separate us,” he said. “I hope people take (whatever they learn from the gatherings) back to their respective organizations — whether that’s the PTA, the La Jolla Town Council, the Homeowners Association or Kiwanis Club — and practice it there.” u

Parks & Beaches group re-opens Coast Walk parking discussion In other LJPB news

The point where Coast Walk meets the Coast Walk Trail. re-send the letter and remind the city of the project’s priority with the group was discussed, with participation from residents in opposition. It was voted down 5-6-4, reportedly because some LJPB members thought they were voting to install parking in the area or take other direct action. Asserting the letter is a request for information, rather than a call for action, Merryweather said the topic needed to be rediscussed to address the confusion. “We were not voting for parking on Coast Boulevard,” Merryweather said. “We were and are asking for the city to study the area, that’s it.” Member Ken Hunrichs added, “We need that information before we can even see what’s possible. Until we (have the results of that study), we can’t know what we might

want to put in that place.” As was the case at the June meeting, residents opposed to the possibility of adding more public parking to their street were on hand to voice their concerns. To assuage those concerns, a subcommittee formed consisting of LJPB members and any interested parties. The subcommittee will meet to determine an amenable solution for all concerned, which could be implemented based on the results of the study — should the city decide to fund it. The board also voted 12-2 to re-send the letter asking for the study to be included in the city’s next year’s budget. Those interested in joining the subcommittee may contact LJPB through its website: lajollaparksandbeaches.org

n Cove restrooms restoration update: LJPB member Judy Adams Halter, who is spearheading the private/public project to replace the Scripps Park restroom facility, announced she was given a tentative construction schedule by the city. Halter privately raised the funds to have architectural firm Safdie Rabines draw up schematic designs for community and LJPB to approve before handing them over to the city for construction. The project is currently in the engineering phase, she reported. “The restrooms should be going to the design phase in October, where the city will decide what their process will be in picking the architect,” she said. “Our hope is that they do a RFQ (Request For Qualification) so that Safdie Rabines will be able to participate. That will probably take four to five months. Then the architect will take about a year to design the restroom pavilion, so it looks like the project goes out to bid for builders around March 2017, and we are planning on the facility being opened in September 2019.” n Whale View Point parking ‘unfeasible’: As part of the piecemeal Whale View Point Shoreline Enhancement Project — a multi-year, multi-component project to improve the area along Coast Boulevard — project organizer Ann Dynes reported on her efforts to remove parking along the west side of Coast Boulevard.

SPECIALIZING IN EXQUISITE RANCH & COASTAL PROPERTIES

By Ashley Mackin At its August meeting, La Jolla Parks & Beaches (LJPB) advisory board re-opened discussion on a city-funded Coast Walk Feasibility Study to see if more public parking is possible along the scenic stretch. Originally addressed in June (the board did not meet in July), the board reviewed its request to have the city examine the area. Coast Walk — a short street west of Torrey Pines Road between Prospect Place and Amalfi Street — is a paved, residential road that connects to the Coast Walk Trail and scenic path that starts at Goldfish Point. The view from the point at which Coast Walk and the Coast Walk Trail meet sweeps the ocean from La Jolla Shores to the Cove. The driveway onto Coast Walk from Torrey Pines Road is narrow with the curbs painted red, except for two segments large enough for two cars each. However, there is no form of turnaround at the end of the paved street, nor is there a way to determine whether there are any parking spaces available. LJPB member Melinda Merryweather reminded the group that this was the second time they were requesting a parking feasibility study from the city. The first was in 2011 when they sent a letter asking the city to include in an upcoming budget a study that would provide a bluff stability and drainage analysis to determine geological constraints, a map of the lines of the public right of way, and an analysis of traffic safety and fire department access issues. At its June 2015 meeting, the request to

www.lajollalight.com With the intent of opening up the ocean view, Dynes said she was researching the possibility of removing the parallel parking on the west side of the street and installing diagonal spaces on the east side. Through her research, Dynes met with city engineers who said the street is too narrow to accommodate diagonal parking, so that component “does not appear to be feasible,” she said, adding she and her city contacts are “still working on it.” In the meantime, Dynes said the next task is removing some of the overgrown vegetation at the Wedding Bowl to reveal the wall underneath and re-vegetating the surrounding area. “The retaining wall around the Wedding Bowl is one of these 100-year-old cobblestone walls, and it was completely covered with aloe and grass,” she said. “The city has trimmed (the enveloping plant life). It looks a little rough because it exposes dead growth, but we are going to plant some goldenrod and other plants behind the aloe.” Read more about the project at whaleviewpoint.org n Concours d’Elegance draws ire: Typically, when a presenter for an annual event says there is no change from the previous year, that’s a good thing, but with the Concours d’Elegance car show presentation, that was a problem. The 12th annual car show is set to take place April 8-10, 2016, said organizer Michael Dorvillier. The event takes up nearly all of Scripps Park and organizers fence off the area, with the exception of a ribbon around the park on the ocean side. Planners use the backs of park benches as a marker to abut the fences,

But each year, LJPB members request that a small portion of the park be left open for visitors and residents who want to use the park. “If we do that, we do not have the room to hold this event successfully,” Dorvillier said. To which board member Merryweather replied, “This bothers me every year.” The La Jolla Concours is listed by Octane Magazine as one of the top three Concours events in the world. Last year it netted $80,000 — 90 percent of which went to the La Jolla Historical Society and the remaining 10 percent to the Monarch School for homeless children. Calling the closure a “minor imposition,” Dynes said, “We don’t want to become so self-absorbed that we can’t open our community up to good things.” A motion to support the event, with the fence lines presented, passed 12-4.

Concours d’Elegance car show presenter Michael Dorvillier n Tree removal in Heights Park: To accommodate a home rebuild on the 7000 block of Brodiaea Way, off Encelia Drive, Claude-Anthony Marengo, a principal with Marengo-Morton Architects, requested board support for removing a cluster of 10 eucalyptus trees in La Jolla Heights Natural Park and re-vegetating the area. Marengo said the eucalyptus trees are dense, non-native to the environmentally sensitive lands in the canyon, and known for falling down and posing a fire hazard. City Park & Rec Open Space Division manager Laura Ball said, “We’ve developed a policy by which people can propose to remove trees on open space with the requirement that it be more of a revegetation project than a tree removal project, with the intent of establishing native habitat as a benefit to open space.” Although in support of re-vegetating the area, board members had concerns over what type of vegetation would be used. Ball said the plants would have to be native and

only require water to be established, and tentatively included bushes and shorter trees. With board members hopeful that the eucalyptus would be replaced with other tall trees, Marengo said he didn’t object and would return to a future meeting with a new vegetation plan. At the suggestion of city staff, Marengo also presented the proposal to the La Jolla Community Planning (LJCPA) during its Sept. 3 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center. The project’s landscape architect, David McCullough, said the city suggested replacing the eucalyptus with trees and/or vegetation of a similar height. Marengo and McCullough are proposing to plant either coastal live oak or Torrey pines, as well as several varieties of coastal sage scrub at ground level. A temporary irrigation system would be added to assure the trees and scrub take hold, Marengo said. Though coast live oak and Torrey pines can be found locally, and would do well in that location, neither tree is native to that area, McCullough said. In the end, the LJCPA voted 9-5-1 to let Parks and Beaches hear the item again before it makes its own recommendation or considers the issue as a consent agent item. The LJCPA’s motion suggested the applicant present the proposed replacement trees and vegetation to Parks and Beaches, and also provide a letter of support from the neighbor whose property includes several of the eucalyptus trees slated for removal. u — La Jolla Parks & Beaches next meets 4 p.m. Monday, Sept. 28 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollaparksandbeaches.org

From Cats, A1 Evans said this production will play to CYC’s reputation of surprising theatergoers. “When people come to see our musicals, they think ‘oh, it’s a youth company, they’re just kids’ and it’s never what they expected, they are blown away by the quality of singing and acting,” he said. With the cast of “CATS,” Evans said he himself has been blown away by the commitment of the young actors, and is sure their love for the stage will come through during its Sept. 26-Oct. 11 run at the Lyceum Theater downtown. “Generally speaking, the kids love to perform but they don’t all like to rehearse, so going through the rehearsal process can be a chore. It’s a necessary evil for them,” he said. “But in this show, there is none of that. Everyone is at every rehearsal and they are so happy to be there. They love to learn the songs and can’t wait to dance, they are super pumped and loving the process.” Each actor brings a little something special to the process. One of the youngest, Lauren Muehl, 7, a student at Bird Rock Elementary, said she loves the songs and singing in the ensemble is “a great experience.” Her character is a Siamese cat. “A lot of plays have singing but not much dancing, this one has both,” she said. When people see the show “They will see all the hard work the kids did to learn everything.” Lauren plans to audition for more roles in the future. Julia Van Skike, 10, also a student at Bird Rock Elementary School, said she prepared for her role by watching her two cats (and six foster kittens) at home. “The character (Electra) is a twin kitten with Etcetera and she’s shy and quiet, while Etcetera is very bubbly and playful,” Julia said. Because her foster kittens are small, she was able to watch how they move and learn to make small movements to play on her character’s shy nature. Julia said she also watched the “CATS” movie — a taping of a Broadway show — that made her want to be in the production one day. Julia has already been in the CYC production of “Annie,” and other theater company shows. “There are so many fun things about theater, I learn a lot

Julia Van Skike, a student at Bird Rock Elementary School, plays Electra. Courtesy and I get to make friends,” she said. “But I think ‘CATS’ is a really fun production because there so many different characters in different shapes, colors and sizes.” La Jolla resident and Francis Parker student Isabella Walther-Meade, 11, said she listened to the iconic soundtrack to prepare for her role as Cassandra. “The music is great and being familiar with the songs helped a lot,” she said. “The music welcomes you into this imaginary world of cats and gives you a feeling for what they must be thinking and what it must be like to live in that world.” Isabella said her favorite song is the ensemble number “Mr. Mistoffelees” because it has a great tune and everyone gets to be in it. Another classic song from the score includes the emotional ballad “Memory.” Isabella added that, thanks in part to Evans’ direction, the actors are free to incorporate cat-like movements into the choreography as they see fit. “They teach you the dance

moves and you can add your little paw scratches or whatever seems right,” she said. The young songstress has also been in the CYC productions of “Les Miserables” and San Diego Junior Theater production of “Shrek the Musical.” Brenden Dallaire, 12, a La Jolla resident and Mount Everest Academy student, also had a role in CYC’s “Les Mis,” and has been in a version of “CATS” already. “I love the musical,” he said. “I’ve watched clips from the movie and I was just in an acting summer camp (Theater Arts Studio) for two weeks, and we did a production of “CATS.’” In his camp production, Brenden played Rum Tum Tugger, but this time, he’ll be playing Skimbleshanks. “He thinks he’s the king cat and that he controls the railway (where he lives), but he doesn’t,” he said. Singing Brenden’s praises, Evans called him exceptionally talented. “When you hear him, you think, that’s a singing professional in the making,” he said. “He really causes your ears to perk up.” Bishop’s School student Olivia Wiese, 12, also brings her powerful pipes to the role of Demeter. Having performed at the San Diego County Fair and the Adams Avenue Street Fair, Olivia said she loves to sing and enjoys her solos in her principal role. “It’s such a fun musical and Demeter is such a fun character,” she said. “She is one of the middle-aged cats, so she’s not a kitten but not an older cat. She’s had a relationship with Macavity (the show’s only real villain) in the past and now has a relationship with Munkustrap (the story’s main narrator).” Of her cast-mates, she said everyone “really gets into character” and that creates a professional atmosphere. “They put on such good shows,” she said. “And this show is great for any age because it’s very lively and the music is great and really fun.” u n If you go: California Youth Conservatory Theatre presents “CATS,” evenings and matinees WednesdaysSundays, Sept. 26-Oct. 11 at Lyceum Theatre, 79 Horton Plaza, downtown San Diego.

La Jolla student shares vision for peace at United Nations event By Pat Sherman Nicolas Nave, who is entering his senior year at La Jolla High School, got the opportunity to read his essay on peace before a crowd of about 150 people at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City Aug. 11. Other student presenters performed art, music and mental math feats, like his 7-year-old brother, Blake. Nicolas was offered the opportunity after enrolling in an after-school program in Rancho Peñasquitos earlier this year at Help You Achieve language school (where his younger brother studies mental math). There, Nicolas dedicated many hours to cleaning up less-than-perfect English in business documents and college entrance essays — largely submitted by Chinese businesspeople and students. Nicolas, 17, read his essay, “The Practicality of Peace,” during the SinoAmerican Cultural Council’s 10th annual student event there (hosted in connection with the company that owns the language school where he volunteers). His essay is about what he views as the inevitability of peace and its correlation to the evolution of civilization. “At first when I read the essay I was a little bit in shock because I said, ‘How could you say it’s the most peaceful time when there are so (many atrocities taking place),” said his mother, Tania Nave, though adding, “the more I read the essay the more I understood how every statement he makes in his writing is supported by the following paragraphs. … In the end I was left with a

sense of hopefulness. … I was so proud and trying to capture every moment that I could.” Nicolas, who says his favorite authors include Kurt Vonnegut, Albert Camus and Haruki Murakami, had heard the idea discussed that — despite random, senseless acts of violence portrayed in the media — humanity is actually in the midst of its

most peaceful period. “I’ve heard that a lot, just as a fact that people throw around,” he said. “I looked it up and it seemed that it was true.” However, Nicolas cautions, in concluding his essay, “We live in the real world, not a utopia. In the real world, we have to deal with the unfortunate existence of things

City delays Midway Bluff Repair for more environmental tests Bird Rock

Community

Council

Bird Rock resident David Haney reads a statement encouraging those in attendance to e-mail the governor’s office to veto AB 57.

Bird Rock resident Joe LaCava shares his experience with a police ride-along, to add to the Neighborhood Watch report given at each meeting.

Although design plans were set in May, Freiha said, the city’s Development Services Department (DSD) had additional questions about the project’s environmental impacts, and required more information. “The city requested more field and soil testing, along with a drainage study to answer the questions posed by DSD, which required more consultants, which lead to a little delay,” he said. Freiha added that to account for the additional expenses (he did not disclose the cost the delays would add to the project), he and his team would work with the city’s infrastructure committee and the San Diego City Council to garner extra funds. However, the City Council takes a five-week recess from Aug. 10 to Sept. 16, and will not have a chance to review the revised plans that include DSD concerns and recommend

additional funding until they return. “And now everything is stacked on their desks for them to get to,” he said. With City Council approval, the project will next require a Coastal Commission permit before workers can break ground, which Freiha was told would likely be in February. However, he said he is hopeful they could speed through the permitting process and begin in December. “The Mayor’s office has worked to get this project on the fast track,” he said. Construction is expected to take six months, with work hours 7:30 a.m. to about 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. The foliage will be replaced with drought-resistant landscaping, Freiha said, but will require 26 months of plant establishment and watering. Afterward, the city’s Department of Parks &

Freiha said if things move along and there is nothing new to report, he would send an e-mail to BRCC president Jacqueline Bell, but if things “change direction,” he would be back for an update. “We are keeping our fingers crossed that all that comes through on schedule,” he said.

By Ashley Mackin After a glimmer of hope that work on the Midway Bluff Repair Project might begin this fall (and be finished in early 2016), an unforeseen delay and subsequent “trickle down” effect postponed the start of work until likely February 2016. The Midway Bluff Repair Project manager George Freiha attended the Sept. 1 Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) meeting at Bird Rock Sushi & Oyster to explain the delays and new schedule for the project Bird Rock residents have been anticipating for more than a decade. The project will restore the overlook at the end of Midway Street that began to erode 15 years ago. Heavy rains, coupled with a blockage to the drainpipe, caused the water to flood the bluffs and accelerate erosion. A fence went up five years ago to keep people at a safe distance. As part of the restoration project, a support wall will be built, the area will be landscaped and an ADA-compliant travel ramp installed, along with a concrete path.

Diego Police Department Community Relations Officer Larry Hesselgesser said when looking to steal property from a car, thieves look for electronic devices, such as iPads, cell phones and GPS; coins and other forms of money; sunglasses; laptop computers; and gym bags. Piggybacking on the public safety report, Bird Rock resident Joe LaCava said he has been working with police to better understand their protocol. “I went on a ride-along a couple of weeks ago, that gave some insight as to why La Jolla doesn’t get much attention,” he said. “When you look at the call sheet of what officers are supposed to respond to (you see why) they don’t always get to the things that affect our quality of life, like noisy neighbors, noisy parties, alcohol use, suspected burglars. Police have much more violent — and much more serious — crimes to go after. Because they are understaffed, they don’t always get to those things that are more relevant to us in La Jolla. It was quite an eye-opener.” n Push for community engagement: LaCava, candidate for City Council District 1 in 2016, also spoke about the importance of joining community advisory groups, noting specifically the La Jolla Community Planning Association ad-hoc committee on “Mansionization,” formed to address what some see as a proliferation of large, boxy houses in Bird Rock. When it comes to addressing a certain issue, LaCava said, “It’s important for La Jollans to come together and figure out what the right solution is. City Hall is tired

of La Jolla, they see La Jollans as complaining all the time and they don’t take our issues seriously. “You want to know why it takes 10 years to get the Midway Bluff fixed? Because the city is tired of us complaining. The challenge for us is, we have is to come together as La Jollans, figure out what we want to do, come to a solution, and take that solution, wrap it up and hand it to the city. We need to say ‘we’ve had our own internal fight, here is a solution we can agree on that we want you to implement,’ that, the city will listen to.”

CRIME AND PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS Most weekend rescues were at WindanSea Beach

an Diego beaches were busy Labor Day weekend, with some 273,500 beachgoers flocking to the shore despite choppy waters. Rough rip currents throughout the coast and across north county beaches had lifeguards busy with rescues. San Diego Fire-Rescue’s Lee Swanson said lifeguards made 655 water rescues over the weekend, with 122 of those at the WindanSea Beach. Swanson said the rocky beach makes it more difficult for swimmers to get in and out of the water. Lifeguards assisted with just over 100 medical aids over the weekend. Swanson said beachgoers should always swim with a friend and stay near lifeguard towers. He also said swimmers should keep in mind their level of swimming ability before going out in the water.

n Bird Rock joins cell tower bill fight: Voicing concern about Assembly Bill 57 — which would give wireless communications companies near carte blanche authority to install new cell phone antennas and related equipment in excess of La Jolla’s 30-foot height limit without public notice or chance for appeal — Bird Rock resident David Haney encouraged those in attendance to e-mail the governor’s office to veto AB 57. Comments can be submitted at: govnews.ca.gov/gov39mail/webmail.php “Each tower brings the city a franchise fee, I don’t know what it is, but I estimate its around $1,000 per unit per month.

La Jolla’s Florence Palmer given posthumous ‘master designer’ title n Fern Glen home also earns historic designation

Following a full restoration by owner Patrick Bewley, this 1929 Tudor Revival-style cottage at 350 Fern Glen (front and rear views pictured) received a historic designation from the City of San Diego on Aug. 27. Its designer-builder, Florence Buchanan Palmer, also received the posthumous designation of ‘master designer.’ landscaping or architectural development of the city, a community or a neighborhood; it embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period, method of construction or craftsmanship; and it is representative of the notable work of a master builder, designer, architect, engineer, landscape architect, interior designer, artist or craftsman. The city determined Palmer qualified for the “master” distinction during the designation process, based her reputation and other documentation. Neither Herbert nor Florence Palmer were licensed architects, which was not uncommon in

California at that time. “Florence Buchanan Palmer constructed quality, attractive homes which often featured Tudor Revival design elements and irregular floor plans,” the HRB staff report further states, in part. “Her work was acknowledged by her peers through a 1933 San Diego AIA Design Awards Jury Mention and was featured in local news publications. Her quality design and construction has withstood the test of time, as evidenced by the intact nature of 10 out of 12 confirmed works. The subject property is one of the best representations of Palmer’s work,

(featuring) steep gable roofs with wood shake shingles; small shed roof dormers; exposed rafter tails; stucco; decorative halftimbering; clay pipe vents in the gable ends; decorative brick facades in herringbone patterns” and other elements. Palmer was one of only four female architects/designers working in San Diego County in during the 1920s and 1930s, along with Hazel Wood Waterman, Lillian J. Rice and Louise Severin. According to an article by historic real estate specialist Linda Marrone in La Jolla Historical Society’s Summer 2010

By Pat Sherman The late home designer Florence Buchanan Palmer was recognized by the City of San Diego last month with the posthumous distinction of “master designer.” A leader in the women’s suffrage movement while living in Brooklyn, Palmer later moved to La Jolla with her husband, Herbert E. Palmer, where they operated “Palmer and Palmer, Architects and Builders” until their divorce just three years later. Both remained in La Jolla, with Mrs. Palmer opening her own architectural practice. She designed and built 12 verifiable La Jolla homes in the Tudor Revival style, 10 of which are still standing today, including those on Rushville Street, Draper Avenue, Fern Glen, Monte Vista and Olivetas Avenues. “This would speak to not only the quality of construction, but also of design, attracting owners and stewards that maintained the homes, largely unaltered for the past 85 years,” states an Aug. 13 San Diego Historical Resources Board staff report, recommending a historic designation be granted for her home at 350 Fern Glen in the Barber Tract neighborhood — one of three contiguous cottages she built referred to as the “Little People’s Block.” The home, owned and restored by Patrick Bewley, received the historic label Aug. 27 based on three criterion: It exemplifies or reflects special aesthetic, engineering,

Timekeeper newsletter, Palmer’s “affinity for interior architecture made her very popular with La Jolla’s upscale clientele.” In an interview with Barbara Barber Stockton, daughter of Phillip Barber (namesake of the Barber Tract), she recalled that her father hired Florence “Cutie” (her nickname) Palmer in the early 1920s to design the interiors of the family’s oceanfront home on Dunemere Drive (later owned by Academy Awardwinning actor Cliff Robertson). Palmer died Dec. 24, 1969 at 76 years of age. Sadly, there are no known, surviving photographs of her. u

This home at 7135 Draper Ave., owned by Marjorie Hughes, is one of 10 Tudor Revival-style cottage homes designed by master designer Florence Buchanan Palmer that are still standing today. It is considered to be the most ornate and detailed of her work. Palmer was known for herringbonepatterned brick facades and diamond-paned, leaded glass windows, as seen here. Pat Sherman

Marking Its 60th Year

All Hallows Academy equips students for a lifetime of success By Marti Gacioch An academically strong and well-rounded curriculum, plus small classes with ample one-on-one student attention and an emphasis on analytical thinking for solving problems, are just a few essential learning tools All Hallows Academy imparts to its students. “We teach co-ed students from transitional kindergarten through eighthgrade and integrate our Catholic values and morals into all aspects of our academic curriculum,” said principal Jill Platt. “This allows students to gain relevance and competence with the curriculum and apply important skills and concepts to everyday life through a Christian perspective.” The average class size is 14 and All Hallows Academy graduates have a 98 percent placement in the high schools of their choice — including Cathedral Catholic in Carmel Valley and St. Augustine’s in the North Park area. During her five years as principal, Platt said she’s seen the school transition through many growth changes. “All of our teachers are certified and continue their training and education,” Platt said. “Our school has also partnered with San Diego’s Roman Catholic

“$12. I have five children and with all the Marvel movies coming out, we go to the movies all the time, so I wouldn’t pay much more than that. Also, we don’t need the big chairs or anything like that.” Zaida Leon

“I wouldn’t pay more than $8 because I just need the movie. I don’t need the in-seat service (offered by some pricier theaters); the movie itself is enough. Plus, I like smaller theaters.” Glenn Oberlander

“$20 because I don’t go to the movies that often, but when I do go, I want it to be an experience. So I’d pay that much for theaters that offer comfy chairs and different kinds of food.” Millicent Moone

“$15-$17, but it would depend on what I get. To pay a high price and get bad food or not have a quality viewing experience would be disappointing, but I don’t go to movies often.” Brett Beal

OUR READERS WRITE

Recent sign issue was a matter of public safety I’m not sure what part of the “traffic & public safety issues” a recent letter-writer missed in the investigation into the urgent need for clear, correct signage on the corner of Playa del Norte and Neptune Place, or if he resides or has resided on this street for the decades that many of us have. For those of us who are residents, witnessing a 20-fold increase in cars driving UP the wrong way on a busy beach street, during summer no less, was horrifying! And the highly visible new “Do Not Enter” sign the city did install — thank you Sherri Lightner’s office — was done so precisely as a result of several concerned citizens “whining” (albeit in a vulnerable location, knocked down immediately, city to re-install). It does appear there is a discrepancy in what the condo developers say the city required regarding their signage. That is in the process of further investigation with various city departments at this time. But the exact “how” it happened wasn’t as immediately important as preventing a terrible accident, of course! Thank you for writing in sir, it helps to keep a spotlight on the issue that is not entirely resolved.

As far as me “bashing a fabulous project” that has contributed so much to the neighborhood? Not so, my complaint was with the people involved who seemed uninterested or unable to take any responsibility for a very unsafe situation the project signage created, however unintentional. Frankly, it was baffling how those parties involved were not more concerned about their potential liability in the unfortunate event of an accident or the negative press a tragedy would generate (any press is good press? Hopefully not!). In spite of feeling sad that certain aspects of the older “funky” WindanSea are disappearing, change is inevitable. Personally, I like the building and I don’t mind the project at all, quite the contrary to “bashing” it. I own two properties on Playa del Norte, so in the end I benefit with substantial increases in my property values. No whining here! But let’s keep our neighborhood safe for pedestrians, bikes, cars, locals and tourists, please. Lee Miller

La Jolla Shores’ curb colors need re-painting It has become extremely frustrating to see car

after car being ticketed and towed, many because over the disappearing red curbs at La Jolla Shores. Understandably, such violations contribute to the revenue of the city. However, as affluent as La Jolla is, you would think the curbs would be painted bright red. Not only so drivers can take note of them when they park, but also to add to the cleanliness and pristine look of La Jolla Shores. On some streets the red curbs are barely even noticeable or look like they existed at one time. It would be great if the city would do something about these curbs. Especially since there are so many thousands of people visiting La Jolla Shores each day, month and year. London Chong Newcomb

LA JOLLA LIGHT - September 10, 2015 - Page A19

OUR READERS WRITE (Continued) walking distance of your new cinema. However, I would like to encourage you to re-title the theater so it better reflects the heritage, ambience and art history that pervades so much of what makes La Jolla a must-visit spot. It is currently referred to as “The Lot,” but it would be better served if the name reflected our beloved La Jolla. Perhaps a few locals could participate in a name selection that would be so much more appealing and entertaining than naming it for the parking lot below the theater (or however it was decided). A few names that come to mind, among the many I am sure will be suggested by my friends and neighbors, The Jewel Cinema, The Shores Theater, Village Cinema, or something else that would be more of a delight to repeat than “The Lot.” Whatever it is called, it will always be the “movie theater in La Jolla.” But it would be to your benefit, and a sign of respect to La Jollans, to have the theater given a more pleasing moniker.

No turn on red at Girard, Torrey Pines Road I live on Girard Avenue and therefore have to cross the intersection of Girard Avenue and Torrey Pines Road quite often. So unfortunately, I’m very aware of how often drivers make right-hand turns on red lights from Girard Avenue onto Torrey Pines road, despite all the signs that say “No Turn On Red.” I find this to be the most dangerous intersection for pedestrians in the Village. With school starting and knowing that my child will be crossing this intersection every day, I want to make sure La Jolla residents are aware that they CANNOT make a right turn on red at that intersection and that doing so will jeopardize the safety of the crossing pedestrians. I encourage anyone with the same concern to contact San Diego Police Traffic Division at (858) 495-7800. Jessica Hughes

Whitney project again before city council Robert Mosher FAIA, recently deceased, deserves all the accolades given to him as reported in the Sept. 3 edition of La Jolla Light. However, it is important to keep in

Paddle out memorial for Mark Scales Sept. 20 Before I moved to La Jolla, I worked as a journalist in Los Angeles covering events including the 1998 Academy Awards. When Jack Nicholson walked into the press room with his statuette for “As Good As It Gets,” he was asked by a male reporter, “How does it feel to be the coolest guy in the room?” Jack, of course, was too cool to answer that it’s not much of an accomplishment in a room full of journalists. But if I had to answer, I’d say the coolest guy I ever met was La Jolla’s Mark Scales, and in a town full of surfers, that is saying something. In his day Mark had Nicholson’s charisma, George Clooney’s looks, and a reputation as the best goofy-footer at WindanSea, yet I learned he was dead when the Medical Examiner’s office called to find next-of-kin. Mark, whose paddle out will be held at noon, Sunday, Sept. 20 at WindanSea Beach, was a much-loved local, who had taken it on himself to make sure the Shack always had fresh palm fronds when needed. La Jolla Light ran a story on a restoration that featured pictures of Mark on May 17, 2012 (see photo above). He was the boy my parents would’ve warned me about, if they weren’t too busy getting divorced to give advice. Mark and I had nothing in common in the present, but we bonded over pain from the past. I’d grown up in land-locked, suburban New Jersey, dreaming of the mythical location of Beach Boys songs. He was the quintessential WindanSea local, who despised the “goony” Beach Boys and inconsiderate dog owners in equal measure. When I told him I loved the Beach Boys’ song “Catch a Wave” he started to sing, “Walk a dog and you’re pooping on top of the beach.” In the beginning of our friendship, Mark marveled at how he’d been cast as the Kahuna to the ultimate Kook, who was, in his words, “Only in year-one of the 30-year becoming a local plan.” He called me “Midgie Gidgie,” because I was too short to rate being a full Gidget. Mark was a talented carpenter and artist, despite being partially color blind. He couldn’t see the green flashes everyone else exclaimed over. Mark made good on a promise to teach me to surf, although his reaction to me in a bathing suit was, “Aaargh, your skin is so white, I’m going snowblind!” He took me to Tourmaline, not WindanSea, explaining that WindanSea was a place you had to work your way up to. It infuriated him, as it did so many surfers of his generation, that WindanSea had become a free-for-all of kids, tourists, and kooks who didn’t respect the earned hierarchy of the lineup. “Groms knew their place. You don’t start at a reef break. You start at a shore break. There was decorum. We reinforced it — there was decorum.” He kept using that word, like a La Jolla matron at a tea party, but his idea of decorum was to drop in on a kook and then hit the guy. He had me start belly to the board, which he had shaped, with waves that were barely a foot high, as I learned with the usual hilarity not to pearl or make other beginner errors. Suddenly, I felt a rush of force, almost enough to shoot the board out from underneath me. Mark had pushed me into a nearly four-foot wave, but I held on, so tight I nearly gouged the rails. I loved the power. For a few brief seconds, I finally knew the stoke. I rode the wave

mind his views on what is going on in La Jolla Shores today. The current Whitney project proposed to be built at the corner of Avenida de la Playa and El Paseo Grande is a repackaged version of what Whitney proposed at the City Council hearing in 2010. At this 2010 hearing Robert Mosher not only spoke vehemently in opposition to the Whitney project but he remained in the City Council chambers four-and-a-half hours for the hearing to begin and stayed until the hearing was completed. At the conclusion of the hearing, the City Council turned down the Whitney project. This Oct. 5, at 2 p.m., the Whitney project will again come before the City Council. It is our hope that as many La Jolla residents will

The late Mark Scales helped maintain the Surf Shack at Windansea Beach with fresh palm fronds. Light File almost all the way in, until I slipped and tumbled end over end. Unable to tell water from sky, I desperately gasped, “Help! What do I do?” “You just stand up,” Mark said. “You’re in two inches of water.” He later apologized several times for pushing me into too big a wave, but delighted me with his pride that I’d hung on. It was one of the best days of my life, our best day together, but even it was cut short by his need to grab the inhaler for his COPD from the van he lived in. Near the end, I did my time, as many friends had, as his nurse. On the first night I met Mark, at the height of my naive Gidget phase, he said, “Surfing ruins you.” I can’t condemn surfing, because I know how much it’s given to so many people, including Mark. But I also can’t forget advice from a college professor when I discussed my future: “Be careful of decisions you don’t know you’re making.” Adolescence is the fraying rope bridge we all have to cross to adulthood. What slip on that bridge turns a cool kid into a lost boy? When Mark died last December, he was memorialized with graffiti that said, “R.I.P. Keeper of the Shack,” because for decades he had lead its refurbishment with fresh palm fronds. Mark even schooled me on the Shack, laughing at my naiveté when I told him I’d once been scratched by a frond’s “spines.” “Spines? They’re like swords, they can punch right through your hands!” Landscape architect Jim Neri is keeping up the tradition he was taught by Mark, and when I attempted to help and got “punched,” I could hear Mark’s deep laugh, even though he was gone. As Bill “Brazil” Fitzmaurice, president of the WindanSea Surf Club says, “Mark was and still is part of a tribe called WindanSea and every member of that tribe loves him and misses him.” WindanSea, unknown to tourists, is the cemetery where the ashes of many locals lie under the waves. The last few years have been especially tragic, and several of the too-frequent paddle outs have honored men Mark surfed with, who all, like Mark, died too soon. Looking out at the water, he made a remark that broke my heart with its premonition, “So many of our friends are out there, I wonder what they do. They must keep surfing. You want to join them.” Karen Heyman

La Jolla High School’s track should be kept open for residents The track at La Jolla High is under reconstruction and therefore no longer available to residents, as it had been. Many of us miss the running and walking track,

where we could exercise without the risk of traffic, doors opening on parked cars, or the toxicity of car fumes. It would help residents if the school kept its baseball field open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Currently, you can “inquire within” the office about using the field, but the diversion in a walk or run is hugely inconvenient. As residents and property taxpayers, we pay for the field. Let’s keep it open for our use. u Kay Plantes n Letters to the Editor for publication should be 250 words or less, and sent by e-mail to editor@lajollalight.com and must include the full name of the sender, city of residence and phone number for verification.

Hearing on new vacation rental ordinance slated for Sept. 22 By Pat Sherman The City of San Diego’s Community Planners Committee (CPC) will take up the issue of short-term vacation rentals (STVRs) — particularly city staff’s proposed new STVR ordinance — 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 22 at the Metropolitan Wastewater Offices at 9192 Topaz Way in Kearny Mesa. The purpose of the meeting is for CPC to hear the city staff report, consider public testimony, and weigh in on an Aug. 12 draft ordinance, as well as to make recommendations on the “blanks” in the draft, according to CPC chair and La Jolla Community Planning Association trustee, Joe LaCava. The CPC recommendations will be forwarded to the San Diego Planning Commission and the City Council for their own hearings on the matter. The Aug. 12 draft ordinance seeks to establish clearer regulation of STVRs, like those that have flourished through online sites such as VRBO and Airbnb, which connect STVR operators and visitors. For years, La Jollans have complained about the impact of short-term rentals, including loud parties, trash and increased traffic. The “framework” for an ordinance, as the city’s Development Services Department is calling it, comes in response to two hours-long council committee hearings held in April and May, when home-sharing hosts squared off against homeowners, who complained that vacation rental homes have taken over their neighborhoods and disrupted their lives. The latest proposal is sure to stoke even more debate. “This was one of the more difficult processes we’ve been through because there wasn’t any clear direction, and it seemed whichever way we went, we’d be in conflict with one side or the other, and typically that’s not the case,” explained Robert Vacchi, development services director. “You never please all the people all the time, but usually you get clear direction which way to go. But in this case, it was pretty even on both sides.” While the city currently has various provisions in its municipal code that can be applied to vacation rentals, such as “boarder and lodger” and bed-and-breakfast rules, they haven’t been adapted to respond to the rapidly growing popularity of home sharing that has gone global, thanks to Airbnb. There are more than 4,000 listings in just the City of San Diego.

n Current rules: There is no specific language in the municipal code defining “short term vacation rentals.” Rentals under 30 days for a whole dwelling unit are currently allowed, with no restrictions on duration of stay. n Proposed regulations: For the first time, there would be a new municipal code section specifically defining short term vacation rentals. Rental agreements that address the allowable number of occupants and city noise limit rules and remedies would be required. Owners would also have to provide a local contact person responsible for responding to noise and

disorderly conduct issues. Rules on how many guests are permitted and how frequently homes could be rented for stays under 30 days are left to City Council to decide.

Short-term rental of an entire multi-family unit

n Current rules: Short term stays are permitted, but may be limited to a minimum of 7 days. n Proposed regulations: Same as those for single-family homes; council would decide occupancy and frequency limits. In multi-family complexes, no more than 25 percent of the units could be rented out for short-term stays.

Shared lodging: renting a room within a home

n Current rules: Home sharing for shortterm stays is now generally governed by bed and breakfast regulations. Such rentals are allowed as long as the owner of a singlefamily home is present. A special use permit is needed that requires notification to neighbors and can take months to obtain. A separate “boarder and lodger” category allows short term stays of at least 7 days in multi-family dwellings, and no permit is required. n Proposed regulations: Existing board and lodging regulations would be expanded to allow home sharing, provided that the property owner is present. A maximum of two adult guests would be permitted under one rental agreement. In cases where an owner wants to rent to more than one set of guests at the same time, a special use permit would be required. City Council will need to decide how often rooms could be rented within a home. A minimum of one parking space per two boarders would be required.

Short term vacation rentals of an entire dwelling unit

Under the proposed ordinance offered up by city planners, there would be a new category for short term vacation rentals of an entire dwelling unit that includes strict guidelines for addressing growing neighborhood concerns about noise, overcrowding and disorderly conduct. Additionally, the municipal code’s existing boarder and lodger regulations have been expanded to permit short term stays by families or a maximum of two adults in a home where the owner is present. While current rules for renting out a room in one’s home for under 30 days can vary by residential zones and communities, the applicable regulations generally fall under the city’s bed-and-breakfast category, which in most instances requires a special permit that can take as long as a year to secure. What remains unanswered, though, is the question of how frequently homes and rooms can be rented to visitors. City Council members have offered suggestions ranging from minimum 21-day stays (when an entire home is being rented) to no restrictions at all. u — The San Diego Union-Tribune reporter Lori Weisberg contributed to this report.

Recording duo brings Kalabash studio/school to Bird Rock By Pat Sherman San Diego musical collaborators Natasha Kozaily and Chad Farran have opened Kalabash School of Music and the Arts at 5725 La Jolla Blvd. (formerly Prodigy School of Arts). The school will hold a grand opening party with tours, live music and refreshments, 5-8 p.m. this Saturday, Sept. 12. The event is free and open to the public. Kalabash features four studios offering music and visual art classes for students, ages 5 to adult, including a new “Comic Book Club” taught by a professional illustrator, during which students will create their own comic books from start to finish. The school, which has nine instructors, also offers fine arts, painting and craft classes, as well as an array of music instruction, from voice and piano to guitar, saxophone, drums, violin, cello and other stringed instruments. Kozaily and Farran have worked collaboratively on music projects for more than five years since Kozaily moved from the Cayman Islands to San Diego to work with Farran on her first album. Kozaily, then a student studying ethnomusicology at Cardiff University, Wales, said she was at home in the Cayman Islands considering recording an album, though not knowing how to go about it. While

Local musicians Chad Farran and Natasha Kozaily in their new Kalabash School of Music and the Arts at 5725 La Jolla Blvd. Courtesy watching the Fuel TV series “On Surfari,” she grew entranced with the soundtrack Farran produced for the show. “His name came up on the screen and I found his MySpace page online,” recalled Kozaily, then 21 and graduating from the university. “I was completely green (about the recording process). The only thing I could think of would be to write an artist I knew who was successful. I told him that I

had written these songs and I wanted to make a record, but that I didn’t know how.” Thinking Kozaily actually lived nearby in Cardiff-by-the-Sea, he asked her to stop by his studio the following weekend. Despite the confusion, a month later Kozaily purchased a plane ticket and was on her way to San Diego. Musically, they connected instantly. After returning home for the summer, Kozaily

packed her bags and moved to San Diego. Her first CD, “Between Shores,” produced by Farran, garnered the Cayman Music and Entertainment Association’s Album of the Year. They have cut two albums since. Farran, a fixture on the local music scene of more than two decades, has served as a drummer with the band Superunloader and, more recently, with The Western Collective. Their debut CD, “Hearts and Dreams,” is nominated for “Americana Album of the Year” in the upcoming San Diego Music Awards. He also leads a maracatu drum ensemble, which will perform during the school’s opening. “We both have a strong, world music background,” said Kozaily, who taught piano and voice at Prodigy School of the Arts for three years when its former owner decided to sell the school, and asked if she was interested. Kozaily and Farran renovated the space since taking it over last month, including expansion of music and art studios, new flooring, and soundproofing rooms to make way for the addition of a recording studio. “We want to offer production classes, as well, to record students,” Farran said. u n Kalabash School of Music and the Arts, 5725 La Jolla Blvd. (858) 456-2753. kalabasharts.com

Two-alarm fire breaks out at Sammy’s Pizza Saturday night

fire broke out at 6:18 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 5 at Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza restaurant, 702 Pearl St., which resulted in smoke damage in three units of the Bella Capri Condos next door. First arriving firefighters saw heavy smoke from the roof of the three-story building. A second alarm was called within 10 minutes. The fire was knocked down in 30 minutes, but several blocks of surrounding streets

remained closed for more than four hours. Fire officials determined the cause to be accidental, starting in the restaurant kitchen hood. Damage is estimated at $150,000 to the building and $50,000 to the contents. One firefighter sustained a minor injury. On Sept. 6, a sign was posted at the entrance indicating the restaurant was closed by order of the Department Environment Health citing fire damage. u

Spectators gather along the 700 block of Pearl Street to watch firefighters extinguish the accidental fire within 30 minutes. Tomas Soto

UC San Diego’s ‘new’ ArtPower features sizzling October lineup By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt

What brought you to La Jolla? My dad was a tank commander in the 1st Marine Division based in Camp Pendleton during WW II. They were from Springfield and Longmeadow, Massachusetts and moved to La Jolla in 1942 where he was promptly shipped off to the Pacific Theater. After the war, why would anyone leave La Jolla? Six kids later, here I am. What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? La Jolla is at the center of the most vibrant innovation ecosystem in the country. Our schools need to not only resemble that innovation community, we need to prepare our students for opportunities to learn and lead as entrepreneurs and innovators. For starters, we need to raise funds for La Jolla High to build the Bioscience Center that is on the drawing board. See 10 Questions, B11

Let Inga Tell You

Adventures in babysitting

La Jolla Cultural Partners

ecently, we spent four days in LA babysitting our grandchildren — 5, 4 and 14 months — paroling our son and daughter-in-law for a much needed get-away. Overall it went well. There were, however, three heart-stopping episodes but fortunately nothing that could not be resolved by either 1) acetone 2) phenobarbital or 3) the realization that the house wasn’t on fire after all. Fortunately, we were provided the assistance of a babysitter as Olof and I were clear that we were not up to the task on our own. Each of those kids has more energy than Olof and I have combined. Further, the 14-month-old, like all of his ilk, is positively drunk with happiness at his new mobility and makes a break for the nearest object of peril the second you take your eyes off him. He needed one-on-one. And so we arrived in LA with our dog Winston. Now, you may remember that Winston is actually their dog but he has spent so much time at our house that in January we took official ownership of him. Our son and daughter-in-law adore Winston — he was their wedding gift to each other eight years ago — but like most English bulldogs of his age, Winston has developed increasingly serious and time-

consuming medical problems. Concurrent to Winston’s health woes, my daughter-in-law and two friends started a YouTube channel for moms with young kids that has been so successful that it has been featured on “Good Morning America” and “The Today Show”; their thrice-weekly video site has 15 million views a month. They are delighted, of course, but my daughter-in-law’s overstretched life could no longer accommodate urgent veterinary appointments with three tots in tow. Now, normally the older kids would have had summer activities for part of the day but these had mostly ended. So we arrived with plenty of projects planned. We made homemade slime (borax, Elmer’s glue), planted herbs in little pots, read tons of stories, watched all manner of endearing theatrical performances, mediated the usual number of “He’s being mean to me!” altercations, tried to explain that in checkers you either have to use the red squares or the black squares but not both, and otherwise enjoyed our time with them. At 5 a.m. the second morning we were there, however, there was a sudden loud blast from the smoke alarm in the hallway right outside the kids’ bedrooms. Let me

tell you that will get your adrenaline going. Fortunately, the blast stopped as quickly as it started. There was no smell of smoke, and we recalled that our smoke alarms had occasionally, maliciously, done this as well. It’s like smoke alarms get bored and decide to toy with you. (It’s not the same noise as the low battery indicator water-faucettorture beep that smoke alarms make — also maliciously — at night.) But anyway, false alarm — but no coffee needed THAT morning. We were seriously awake. The second night we were there, after everyone had gone to bed, I was horrified to find Winston having a seizure. Fortunately, my arsenal of Winston medications included some doggie phenobarbital that my daughter-in-law had bequeathed me. Since Winston has only ever had a seizure at his LA home and not ours, he had obviously become sensitized to something at their house during the last two years while he was mostly living at ours. Now, Olof and I had to concede that a seizure for either human or canine was not an altogether inappropriate response after a day with three kids five and under. But the kids are incredibly gentle with Winston and there are plenty of places in the house he can escape. My theory? The LA folks eat mostly organic and use all green cleaning products. Maybe it’s too much of a shock for Winston’s aged immune system to go from our house where we don’t eat organic and the cleaning products are toxic. Definitely a puzzle. On the third day, the two older kids were giving me a mani-pedi while Olof was on toddler-stalker duty. Granddaughter accidentally knocked over the whole bottle

Manicure by a 4-year-old of mommy’s special bright red nail polish on the light-colored kitchen floor. When the sitter tried to clean it up, it only succeeded in expanding it onto a nineinch diameter red blob, which was impervious to kitchen cleaning products. We Googled “nearest hardware store” and dispatched Olof to acquire acetone and Magic Erasers, which fortunately did the trick. Whew! That one was going to be hard to explain to mommy! And if she asks if I’ve seen her red nail polish, I’m going to plead the fifth. So: Mom and dad are back home, we and Winston are back home, everyone survived, and a good, if exhausting, time was had by all. Now Olof and I are thinking of our own four-day retreat. We’ve earned it. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

Athenaeum to host three violin/piano concerts J

oin Victoria Martino (violin) and James Lent (piano) for a series of three autumn concerts, celebrating milestone anniversaries of three major Northern European composers: Arvo Pärt (Estonia, born 1935), Carl Nielsen (Denmark, born 1865), and Jean Sibelius (Finland, born. 1865) at 7:30 p.m. in the Athenaeum Music and Arts Library‘s Jacobs Music Room, 1008 Wall St. Thursday, Sept. 17 Martino and Lent will perform Pärt’s tribute to his friend, violin virtuoso Gidon Kremer, in three iconic pieces for violin and piano: Fratres, Spiegel im Spiegel, and Passacaglia. On Friday, Oct. 23 and Friday, Nov. 20, they will present works by Nielsen and Sibelius. Both are celebrated throughout the music world for their monumental contributions to the symphonic literature. It is a little-known fact that they were also professional violinists, with a command of technique and profound understanding of the musical possibilities of the instrument. Their passion for the violin almost exceeded their zeal for composition, and it manifested itself in a rich array of works for violin and piano, expressing the composers’ deepest yearnings and most intimate

emotions. Martino is a magna cum laude graduate of Harvard University and the University of California. She has performed as a soloist and chamber musician throughout Europe, Australia, Japan and North America. Regarded as a specialist in early and contemporary performance practice, Martino has a repertoire spanning six centuries. She is recognized for her commitment to performing the complete works for violin by major composers, and has presented monographic anniversary concerts of Bach (both unaccompanied sonatas and partitas, and accompanied sonatas), Beethoven, Brahms, Corelli, Handel, Hindemith, Ives, Lutoslawski, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Schubert and Schumann. Lent holds a D.M.A. in keyboard performance from Yale University. He has collaborated with Martino for over a decade in concerts throughout the United States, performing a vast repertoire for violin and keyboard that ranges from the Renaissance to cutting-edge, contemporary compositions. Tickets are $84 (members) $99 (non-members) for the series and $30 or $35 for an individual concert at (858) 454-5872 or ljathenaeum. org/special-concerts u

Stay thirsty, my friend

alifornia is becoming desert dry, even in lush, fertile valleys, as we enter the fourth year of a severe drought that has depleted rivers, lakes and snowpacks. Alas, some of our most healthful and favorite crops are water hogs, especially broccoli that guzzles over 5 gallons of precious H2O to grow one head; a single walnut slurps 4.9 gallons; one almond swigs down over a gallon; a head of lettuce 3.5 gallons, and the lycopene powerhouse, the mighty tomato drinks a whopping 3.3 gallons. While at a farmers market the other day, I heard ooh’s and ahh’s as a crowd gathered at one of the stalls displaying mounds of glistening rich, ruby red, perfectly spherical tomatoes, all uniformly shaped to fit neatly into the palm. These dry farmed tomatoes are not only packed with nutrients and flavor, but are easy on the water supply. So pick them when they’re good and plenty.

n The Root of the Matter: Dry farming techniques use simple principles starting with traditional planting and watering practices until the tomato plant starts sprouting fruit. At this point the farmer puts the skids on irrigation, stressing the plant so that it must use its roots to scout out water sources deep in the soil. With less water absorbed by the plant, the fruit will develop with a greater concentration of sugars, and ripen more quickly. The skin is also stronger and thicker so the dry farmed tomato doesn’t bruise as easily as other varieties. n Left High and Dry: Dry farming, a practice created centuries ago in Mediterranean regions, uses substantially less water than traditional growing methods. In California, farmers are using this environmentally-conscious technique not only for tomatoes, but for other crops, including melons, squash, potatoes, wheat and corn. n From Dry Farm to Table: Smaller

than most vine-ripened or heirloom varieties, the proverb about good things coming in small packages applies as this tomato has the perfect balance of delicate sweetness and tart notes packed with intense flavor and a dense, rich texture that make it ideal for a variety of uses. Also, with less juice the dry farmed doesn’t saturate dishes or make them soggy. Roast and puree into homemade condiments from barbecue and chili sauces to salsas and ketchup — the dry farmed will make these pop with brilliant color and taste. It’ll dial up gazpachos, marinara sauces, chilis, soups and stews, salads, antipasto platters and bruschettas, while adding a new dimension to sandwiches, pizzas and tarts. Or thread through skewers to add a splash of color to chicken, shrimp or vegetable kebobs. Eat this delectable sphere in hand like a fruit or concoct a savory ice or gelato blending with fresh herbs and amber honey for your just desserts. n Cook’s Tip: Dry farmed tomatoes pair well with basil, rosemary and cipollini onions. n Slice of Life: These intense scarlet powerhouses have even higher concentrations of nutrients than other tomato varieties, including fiber, Vitamins C and A, along with lycopene, a carotenoid pigment that is one of prostate’s best pals. As lycopene is fat soluble, eat it with a drizzle of heart healthy extra virgin olive oil. In addition, cooking tomatoes releases even more lycopene than eating them raw. Baked ziti, anyone? n Counter Intelligence: Dry farmed, like other varieties of tomatoes, should not be stored in the fridge as this will tamper with its tender flesh and zap it of its flavor. Simply store at room temperature on the counter out of direct sunlight. u — For additional dry farmed tomato recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Nobody Says a Word

Dancers are ‘In Your Arms’ for premiere of new concept play By Diana Saenger hristopher Gattelli received in 2012, Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle awards for his cho reography in “Newsies” (currently on tour). Now, as director, choreographer and co-conceiver of “In Your Arms,” his idea for a show without words, he continues to surpass expectations and gain rave reviews. A dancer by trade, Gattelli, was director-choreographer of “Silence! The Musical,” “Jug-Band Christmas,” “Radio Girl,” “Departure Lounge,” and the Coen Brothers’ upcoming film “Hail, Caesar!” His Broadway credits include “Amazing Grace,” “The King and I,” “South Pacific,” “Sunday in the Park,” and many more. “The Globe is famous for premiering new works of American Musical Theater,” said its artistic director Barry Edelstein at a preview event. “This show is a special piece as we’re pushing the form by moving The Globe into a dance/ theater hybrid, telling stories about love and romance.” Gattelli said the idea for “In Your Arms,” came to him when he was at the Lincoln Center doing “South Pacific.” Walking down the halls, he noticed there were names of great playwrights on the walls. He spoke to a friend about his plan to ask different writers to pen a story that would unfold only with music and no words, and when she became intrigued by the idea, Gattelli set out to find the writers and read some of their plays. “We were surprised so many of them were on board with the idea, and already had brilliant, specific voices that go beyond words,” Gattelli said. “At the same time, I had just met composer Stephen Flaherty, and once he heard about the idea he was immediately on board. He would create these musical fabrics and then we would talk through the plays to figure out what theme or dance style

would go with that particular story. Then he would structure the music, kind of like scoring a film, with specific hits and beats.” Gattelli said he was amazed at the work of the writers and how it fit into his vision. “After seeing their work, I was able to dig into the common themes and styles of each,” Gattelli said. “Stephen and I tried very hard to keep in mind their overall aesthetic when creating each piece.” Among the writers who created stories for “In Your Arms” are Douglas Carter Beane, Nilo Cruz, Christopher Durang, Carrie Fisher, David Henry Hwang, Rajiv Joseph, Terrence McNally, Marsha Norman, Lynn Nottage and Alfred Uhry. “Once the writers realized there would be no character names, just dancers without any dialogue, it pleased some of them who recognized this was a different outlet for their work,” Gattelli said. The dance styles employed include classical ballet, swing, tap, tango and rock ’n’ roll. The only words heard come in the opening title song, “Dancing in Your Arms,” with lyrics by Tony and Emmy Award-winner Lynn Ahrens, sung by Donna McKechie, Tony Award-winner for Broadway’s “A Chorus Line.” Because he’s worked on this play for seven years, Gattelli said he’s been moved by different scenes at different times. “Maybe it’s a story about a friend, or a boy and girlfriend on a date, but when I see what these 20 dancers, true artists, bring to this show it’s above and beyond anything I’ve worked with. In previews, we heard one guy say, ‘I hate dancing,’ but by the end of the play he said, ‘I love dancing,’ and that was wonderful to hear.” u n If you go: “In Your Arms,” plays Sept. 16-Oct. 25 at The Old Globe Theatre, 1363 Old Globe Way, Balboa Park. Tickets from $36. (619) 234-5623. theoldglobe.org

From 10 Questions, B1 I’d also like to eliminate street parking on Pearl Street. It’s like Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride and there are too many accidents and dangerous situations. Who or what inspires you? I am inspired by busy people who give their time, talent and treasure to make La Jolla and San Diego a better place. My parents were incredible role models. They were always on boards, chairing committees, volunteering in the community, coaching teams — they did it all at a high level, yet they were always there for us. I don’t know how they did it, but I learned at a young age that giving back was important and they inspired me to step up when it was my time. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom would you invite? Elaine and I are a great team so she’s at the head of the table. Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and Thomas Jefferson have to be there. Joe Namath and Arthur Ashe are my sports idols. Tina Fey and Seth McFarlane will make sure we don’t take ourselves too seriously. Mick Jagger and Tina Turner will provide energy and some tunes. And my mom and dad, because they’re good glue. We may need a bigger table. What is it that you most dislike? People who don’t vote and complain about all that is wrong with society. What is your most-prized possession? Although not a possession, my family is the most important thing in the world. I treasure my marriage certificate and three children’s birth certificates. What do you do for fun? For the past 12 years, I’ve attended thousands of youth sporting events with our boys. I love their baseball and water polo games, and making friends through their activities. For the past six years, I’ve enjoyed writing some 75 articles about La Jolla Youth Baseball for the La Jolla Light. I enjoy board service and helping non-profit organizations improve by recruiting talent to their team — I’m a matchmaker at heart. Last but not least, nothing beats watching a green flash with our friends at a picnic at the Beach Club. We are so lucky to live here!

Will San Diego produce opera’s next star? n The Met hosting local auditions Oct. 10

he Metropolitan Opera National Council (MONC) will hold the first round of its annual auditions in San Diego on Saturday, Oct. 10 at Crill Performance Hall on the Point Loma Nazarene University campus. “We’re excited to be a part of the vibrant resurgence of opera in our region,” said Karen Pennix, MONC’s San Diego District co-director. “We want to encourage young singers to experience the audition process — and we’d love to see opera’s next star rise from San Diego!” Singers, ages 20-30 who are U.S. residents or enrolled fulltime at a university or conservatory in the U.S. for the 2015-2016 academic year, are encouraged to apply to

audition. Up to 40 singers will be accepted from completed, eligible applications in the order they are received. Each singer will meet privately to receive feedback from judges. This year’s judges include: Emmy awardwinning stage director Bruce Donnell, who has had a long association with Santa Fe Opera’s Apprentice Program; Evans Mirageas, artistic director of Cincinnati Opera; and soprano Margaret Jane Wray, who has performed in opera houses around the world, including The Met, La Scala and Opéra National de Paris. The auditions begin at 10 a.m. and are open to the public. Singers with the greatest potential will be selected for the Western Regional competition. Guests may vote for the Audience Choice Award. Deadline for application is Sept. 28. Applications and eligibility requirements at sdmonc.org u

Bang on a Can All-Stars offers a performance of Brian Eno’s ambient classic, ‘Music for Airports,’ 7:30 and 9 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 27, San Diego International Airport’s Terminal 2. Peter Serling

After taking the helm from interim director Kathryn Martin last October, Peimer spent his first few months just observing, watching performances and noting each audience’s response. Though students make up about 40 percent of ArtPower audiences, the rest are from the outside community, with more than half of those coming from La Jolla and Del Mar. “I gave myself three months to not book anything new,” he said. “It was a little nervous-making!” But he learned a lot about what ignited people’s interest, and in this, his first full season of programming, he’s beginning to show what he learned. So 2015-2016 includes chamber music for lovers of classical repertoire as well as those well-versed in cutting-edge sounds. And, remarking that audiences seemed more energized by dance programs that were strongly rhythmic, he’s invited companies who bring Jamaican, Japanese and hip-hop moves into their mix. The season opens Friday, Sept. 25 with UCSD’s Pulitzer Prize-winning music professor Roger Reynolds and English violinist Irvine Arditti premiering their latest collaboration, Shifting/Drifting, a duet for solo violin and computer. Next up: the Oct. 9 screening of the season’s first Foovie (“Los Hamsters,” a Tijuana dark comedy that includes Mexican dinner at The Loft) and two car-based performances by Los Angeleno Greg Wohead (“Hurtling” and “The Backseat of My Car”), in connection with La Jolla Playhouse’s WoW Festival Oct. 9-11.

“Huang Yi & KUKA” at Mandeville Auditorium (Oct. 14, 8 p.m.), La Santa Cecilia at Price Center West Ballroom (Oct. 22, 8 p.m.), and Bang on a Can All-Stars playing Brian Eno’s legendary “Music for Airports” at — where else? — San Diego International Airport (Oct. 27, 7:30 and 9 p.m.). Huang Yi, an acclaimed Taiwanese dancer, choreographer and videographer, was included among Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch” in 2011. Now he has taken a robot by KUKA, manufacturers of industrial robots, and taught it to dance. After the performance, a groundbreaking partnership of humans and robot, Huang Yi will stay for an Art Talk, sharing some of his fascinating backstory with the audience. La Santa Cecilia, an LA-based band named for the patron saint of musicians, combines Pan-American rhythms with klezmer, jazz, and rock ‘n’ roll. Hailed as “colorful,” “passionate,” and “really fun,” they won a Grammy for Best Latin Rock in 2014. And then there’s “Music for Airports,” created in 1978 by experimental musician/ composer/record producer Brian Eno. A series of tape loops intended to be heard on a Walkman, or more recently, a smartphone, this is a mesmerizing piece of anti-Muzak, considered a classic of ambient music. “I always have it with me when I travel,” Peimer said. “It just makes you feel good.” The New York-based Bang On A Can AllStars recorded the piece in 1998, and has performed it live at airports and concert halls around the world. Peimer said he wanted to present it for years, and found the San Diego Airport Art Program coordinators willing and able. This will be

Astra Kelly rediscovers her acoustic roots n ‘Back to Ten’ CD release concert Sept. 18 in La Jolla By David L. Coddon Like the butterfly winging skyward on the cover of her new album, “Back to Ten,” singer-songwriter Astra Kelly has been transformed. But in the case of the Chicago native who cut her teeth performing in subways before coming west to San Diego in 2006, the transformation is of her own making. After playing with a band behind her the past few years, Kelly is re-exploring her acoustic roots. “‘Back to Ten’ means back to one in numerology,” she explained on the patio outside cozy Rebecca’s Coffee House in South Park. “The title reflects my going full circle, going back to being Astra Kelly — the girl with the guitar.” There’s more to this full circle. Kelly’s debut album, “Stones, Bones and Boxes,” recorded in 1996 in Chicago, featured her playing alongside a lineup of luminaries from Chi-Town’s music scene. “Back to Ten,” co-produced by Kelly and engineer Josh Mallit, boasts star talent from San Diego, including Jeff Berkley, Gayle Skidmore, Cathryn Beeks, Simeon Flick, and the altcountry duo Podunk Nowhere. “All of their contributions helped me define where I want to go as a songwriter,” Kelly said. Those artists, along with students from the Rock and Roll San Diego music school where Kelly teaches, will perform at a “Back

Astra Kelly

to Ten” record-release concert on Sept. 18 at La Jolla’s Bella Vista Social Club and Caffe. Part of the donation proceeds from the four-hour “mini-music festival,” as Kelly touts it, will benefit the MusiCares organization that supports working musicians. The return to an acoustic focus aside, Kelly suggested that the musical transformation heard on “Back to Ten” was inspired by “a relationship with spirit that’s become more profound over the last two years” and that it sprung from “internal challenges” that

have given her “a great sense of peace within myself.” Kelly’s favorite tune on the album, and perhaps its most affecting, is “Lullaby Lady,” a dark song that recalls a time when nothing seemed right, when she felt truly despondent. “It’s a cry for help,” she said, “a very solitary, desperate song really.” But in the musical bridge of “Lullaby Lady,” Kelly added, “a sliver of hope comes back.” “That song is about facing our own immortality and finding peace with it. It

lifted me up to be human and to be able to express vulnerability.” “Back to Ten” is Kelly’s seventh independent release, this one laid down at Rarefied Recoding in North Park. A fixture on San Diego’s musical landscape practically from the time of her arrival, she has not only recorded and performed here but hosted 120 episodes of KPRI radio’s popular “Homegrown Hour.” Kelly is a proud do-ityourselfer (“I have an entrepreneurial spirit”) who manages her own career, from recording to booking gigs to promotion. The record release concert at Bella Vista Social Club and Caffe is practically a onewoman endeavor as well. For this event, Kelly found and negotiated the venue, organized sponsors and is taking on both the publicity chores and promotion through social media. “There are so many little details,” she said, not appearing at all stressed by them. Some of that peace of mind no doubt stems from her music, but Kelly also is grounded in her role as a music teacher at Rock and Roll San Diego, where she works with students as young as pre-teen. “They’re all singers and budding songwriters,” she said. “I’ve been calling myself a song whisperer.” u n If you go: Astra Kelly’s “Back to Ten” record release concert is 5:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 18 at Bella Vista Social Club and Caffe, 2880 Torrey Pines Scenic Drive, La Jolla. Suggested donation $15 (includes parking). (858) 534-9624.

Building and Design Trends: Of the Moment or For the Long Run? Building and design trends can be fun to follow, and many people want to experiment with non-traditional styles in their homes. If you know what you want, then go with the trends, especially if they ﬁt your lifestyle and you plan to stay in your home for a long time. But if you are uncertain if a trend is right for you, if it will be outdated, or if you plan to sell your house in the next few years, commit more to the tried-and-true staples over passing trends. Some trends can be cosmetic (paint, new

hardware, new window coverings), but others will require low-to-moderate construction, so be sure to consider all your options before committing to any remodel. OUTDOOR SPACES One of the most reliable trends is the outdoor living space. Since we live in Southern California, our climate is reliably temperate, and even our monsoons and El Niños are few and far between. Therefore, investing in outdoor construction is a long-term win. An outdoor kitchen, with built-in stove or barbecue, refrigerator, even a wine fridge, and plenty of counter space can be utilized year-round and adds instant appeal. A nice element to this is that you don’t need a huge property to have a great outdoor space, and if you have a small kitchen and aren’t ready for an indoor remodel, an outdoor kitchen is the perfect solution. Maybe you already have a showstopper kitchen and would rather utilize the outdoors in a different way. You can create

an outdoor living room with an elevated deck, or by adding a built-in fire pit. To further develop your outdoor space, consider a covering such as an arbor or a solid roof or even go as far as a semienclosed veranda. If you have a large outdoor space, current trends mimic the popular resorts, including large swimming pools with multiple features such as waterfalls and fountains to in-pool seating and creative water slides. A trend that is hot at the moment is the courtyard, both front entry and interior. This can be basic, including an enclosed space with room for a small café table and a fountain, or something larger and more elaborate, with outdoor furniture and fireplaces. A courtyard is especially recommended if you do not have space for a pool or if you plan to remove your lawn to be water-conscious and want to make a better use of the space. An entry courtyard can be beneficial too if you live on a busy street and want to cut down on noise

levels, or to create a greater separation between the city and your home. INDOOR SPACES Game rooms and home theaters have seen the biggest surge in popularity and are relatively easy to convert to a different use in a resale. Trends range from the easily transferred billiard tables and mini refrigerators or children’s play area to fully-installed wet bars and elaborate home theaters with stadium-style seating and state-of-the-art equipment. Like the move in backyards to mimic the resort spa, so goes the trend with bathrooms. Some homeowners may still opt for a whirlpool bath, but those wishing to be more water-wise may choose to focus on a larger shower with a seat, shelves for bath products, and even a waterfall showerhead.
