Del Mar eyes May 2018 to begin new rentals policy BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Del Mar’s policy on vacation rentals is nearing its final shape to allow casual rentals and clamp down on commercial enterprises — a policy framework suited for residents looking to rent their homes while they’re out of town rather than property owners who use rentals as their primary livelihood. With the lion’s share of decisions made last month — homes cannot be rented out for fewer than seven days at a time, and not more than four weeks per year – the city council’s discussion carried over Monday, July 17 into two hours of emotional public testimony and detailed discussion. Many of the details are yet to be decided, but the council did agree that May 2018 is the most logical date to begin enforcing the new policies. “But that could change for any number of reasons; we

could be entangled in litigation, we could be entangled with the Coastal Commission,” said Deputy Mayor Dwight Worden. A group of residents filed suit in June to challenge the city’s emerging regime constricting short-term rentals (STRs). Monday’s hearing drew more than a dozen homeowners who have watched aghast over the past few months as the city’s policies came together. Marla Painter grew up on Klish Way and now uses the property as a home for extended family, while renting it out “maybe 40 nights a year.” “We hope to pass this house on to our grandchildren. But it costs money to keep up a house, and not all of us are as wealthy as some of us in this town are,” she said. “Now, we could sell it, for a lot of money. I can tell you what SEE RENTALS, A14

San Dieguito parents demand solution for ‘unequal’ classrooms BY KAREN BILLING The San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) board continues to face questions on how it plans to address the issue of the ATP (adult transition program) portables on the Earl Warren Middle School campus. Parents feel that the conditions are “separate and unequal” with two portables on the brand new middle school campus that they contend place students with special needs into what amounts to “cramped tool sheds” with limited windows. At the July 13 board meeting, the board split 2-2 on spending $33,000 to add two windows and two doors with windows to improve the condition of the existing portables with board members Mo Muir and John Salazar voting against the proposal.

Solana Beach plots its 30-year climate plan BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Laden with gravitas and optimism, Solana Beach at long last approved its sweeping Climate Action Plan (CAP) to push toward 100 percent renewable energy and cut greenhouse gas emissions in half over the next two decades. The 146-page document — passed on a 4-1 vote July 12 — lays out a wide-ranging roadmap for policies on transportation, energy acquisition, waste management and a litany of other ways that feed into the city’s contribution to carbon emissions that most scientists say are driving global temperatures perilously upward.

Clews pleads guilty to possession, Solana Beach sues Fairgrounds distribution of child pornography over proposed arena

BY JOE TASH Christian Clews, owner of the Clews Horse Ranch in Carmel Valley, pleaded guilty to one count each of possessing and distributing child pornography in a San Diego federal courtroom on Tuesday, July 18. Clews, who was arrested and charged in December following an investigation by the San Diego Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, had previously pleaded not guilty to the charges. He remains free on $150,000 bond, and also is under house arrest and subject to electronic monitoring. The change in plea came after a plea agreement was reached with prosecutors, according to statements made Tuesday in the courtroom of Magistrate Judge Andrew Schopler. The 25-page plea agreement had not been released publicly as of press-time, and Schopler did not discuss the agreement’s details during the change-of-plea hearing. After the hearing, both prosecutor Janet Cabral and defense attorney Gina Tennen declined to comment. Sentencing before Judge Dana Sabraw was set for Oct. 19. Clews answered a series of questions posed by Schopler, who sought to ensure the defendant understood the particulars of the criminal charges, and that he had signed the plea agreement willingly. When asked what he pleaded to the charges, Clews said, “Guilty.” Schopler said that although the plea agreement reached between the prosecution and defense provides sentencing recommendations, the judge “has an

independent duty to determine sentence,” and is not bound by the terms of the plea agreement. The judge said that each count carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison, meaning that Clews could face a maximum of 40 years in custody. Schopler also noted that the distribution charge carries a mandatory minimum sentence of five years. When asked if he understood the potential sentence he faces, Clews responded, “I do now.” If he is sentenced to prison, Clews would be subject to supervised release at the end of his term, and also required to register as a sex offender, Schopler said. At Tuesday’s hearing, Clews’ attendance at church services was also discussed. While Clews had been attending services up to three times per week at St. Therese of Carmel Catholic Church, he was only allowed to do so if he was accompanied by a church representative or other non-family member approved by court officials. However, in late June, an attorney for the Catholic Diocese of San Diego wrote to Schopler to say that the church would no longer provide a staff member to accompany Clews to church services. According to court documents, some church members and parents from Notre Dame Academy, a Catholic school adjacent to the church, were concerned about Clews’ proximity to children while attending church services.

BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The $13 million proposal to transform the off-track betting center at the Del Mar Fairgrounds has ground to a halt, with the City of Solana Beach filing suit to force a lengthy environmental review. The 22nd District Agricultural Association (DAA), which owns and operates the fairgrounds, has rebuffed suggestions that its vision for turning the struggling Surfside Race Place into a 1,900-seat amphitheater and 7,000-square-foot beer complex is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Officials from Solana Beach and Del Mar pleaded with the DAA’s board of directors in May to take pause to consider the impacts to neighbors’ health and roadways from the 90 annual concerts and events, which they believe will be vastly more harmful than the impacts generated by the few hundred attendees who

visit Surfside each day. The DAA board dismissed those concerns and approved the plans on May 23, saying that the traffic and other impacts generated by the proposal will fall well within capacity approved 30 years ago. The DAA had hoped to begin construction right away and open the facility as early as next summer. But Solana Beach officials quietly sought judicial intervention, filing a civil complaint on June 23 in San Diego Superior Court. In the complaint, Solana Beach City Attorney Johanna Canlas asks the court to halt the project, rescind the DAA’s May 23 approval and require CEQA review. “The District’s failure to perform any environmental review of the Proposed Project, and its failure to provide a meaningful response to the environmental issues raised by the City, leaves

the City with no alternative but to seek the assistance of the Court to compel the District to comply with the procedural and substantive requirements of CEQA,” the complaint reads. The DAA had not filed a response as of Monday July 17. Fairgrounds officials have pushed for the project to help buoy the ailing betting center, which has seen attendance plummet. They had hoped to open the facility as early as next summer and generate annual profits of between $1.2 million to $2 million. A CEQA review could push that timeline back by a year or more. At its monthly meeting last week, the DAA board held an hour-long closed session to reconsider its May 23 decision. When the session returned to public session, the board made no comment and ended the meeting moments later.

Complaint plunges Del Mar deeper into dispute over city’s chief lifeguard BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The imbroglio over Del Mar’s chief lifeguard is deepening, with Pat Vergne filing a counter-complaint against the city manager and city attorney that has forced the city council to hire outside counsel to lead the personnel investigation and brace for potential lawsuits. Vergne, Del Mar’s longtime director of community services, was put on paid leave nearly four months ago after a pair of internal complaints were filed against him — the first in late March and the second in early April. Details of the complaints have not been made public, but city leaders have acknowledged that an investigation by an independent attorney has encompassed hundreds of pages of documents and testimony from more than 20 witnesses.

As Vergne’s suspension dragged into its 15th week, a group of residents mounted a campaign to have him reinstated. With hundreds of signatures in hand, they implored the city council to act on Monday, July 10. In the wake of that outcry, Vergne filed his complaint against City Manager Scott Huth and City Attorney Leslie Devaney. City officials and Vergne’s attorney would not disclose details of the new complaint. “I really can’t talk about anything that we just filed,” Daniel Crabtree, Vergne’s attorney, said July 12. The city council responded with a series of emergency closed session meetings to figure out how they can move forward without conferring with Huth and Devaney. City SEE LIFEGUARD, A26

Bully’s North has long been a popular pub and restaurant in downtown Del Mar.

The Bully’s era in Del Mar could be coming to a close BY SEBASTIAN MONTES The fate of Bully’s North, the iconic pub and restaurant in downtown Del Mar, is coming to light as a Beverly Hills-based restaurant group prepares to give the city’s architectural review panel a look next week at its plans to raze the 50-year-old establishment and build an upscale eatery twice the size in its place. Hillstone Restaurant Group will present site plans and schematics on July 26 to the city’s Design Review Board (DRB). Next week’s presentation is strictly an informational meeting — with no decisions made — but it will offer the first wide audience for Hillstone’s vision for a 5,200-square-foot restaurant with a three-level parking garage. Bully’s is just less than 2,200 square feet. To achieve the added space, Hillstone is designing a platform structure, in which the back half of the restaurant will be mounted on posts, hovering over the alley behind Camino Del Mar. Hillstone has been eyeing the property on Camino del Mar for nearly two years, and reached an agreement with Bully’s owner to

buy the property if its plans are approved. Hillstone sketched up a proposal and shared it with Bully’s neighbors last summer, as required by city rule. An Initial Study under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) began in October. CEQA review is expected to wrap up in October, followed by DRB review before the end of the year. Because of the complexity of the construction, build-out will likely last well into 2019. “A good estimate would be six months from the beginning of the year [for the permitting process] and another 18 months to build it,” said Kelly Wallace, Hillstone’s project designer. “That would be a great scenario.” The project will not require city council review unless the DRB’s decision is appealed, said Evan Langan, the city planner overseeing the project. The parcel also falls outside the purview of the California Coastal Commission, he said. If approved, the project could help breathe new life into Del Mar’s lagging downtown, SEE BULLY’S, A24

Traffic, pedestrians top concerns for Solana Beach retirement home BY SEBASTIAN MONTES Given the first look at rough plans for an 86-unit retirement home on the vacant 2.9-acre parcel in Solana Beach along Interstate 5’s eastern edge, neighbors to the would-be facility made clear last week that they will insist upon extensive and thorough remediation to make the proposal fit into their semi-rural community. After tossing out various ideas over the six years since acquiring the parcel just south of The Timbers office building, Encinitas-based developer John DeWald on July 13 kicked off the public phase of environmental review for a two-story complex. DeWald is leading the project for HFF Investor Relations. The nascent project is so far going by the name Solana Beach Senior Care Project. Two-thirds of the facility will be assisted living; the rest will be for memory care. DeWald envisions a 96-bed facility

(with a capacity of 99 beds) for full-time care assisted living with a 50-person staff, 25 of whom would be on site during peak hours. The facility will offer nutrition and medication management but not full-fledged medical or nursing care. Pointing to studies that claim Solana Beach’s senior population will balloon from 2,200 to 3,500 over the next 20 years, DeWald said there is far more demand for senior housing than there is supply. “The other senior care facilities near us, they’re mostly on waiting lists,” he said. “It’s going to get worse as more and more people in the community get to that age.” The July 13 forum with Solana Beach city planners opened the project’s Environmental Impact Report, starting the process to field feedback on how to make the project less onerous on its residential surroundings. About 20 residents from

the neighborhood — made up largely of single-family homes on quarter-acre lots, a throwback to Solana Beach’s agricultural past — attended the forum. Their concerns centered on traffic to and from the facility, especially the abundance of emergency vehicles and supply vehicles, that will pour through the residential streets. Highland Drive is the neighborhood’s main artery, but Marine View Avenue will be the facility’s primary ingress and egress. That route will take the facility’s traffic past two schools and a learning center within a few hundred yards of each other. “My concern, more than anything, is for the children,” said Carol Thomas. “Yes, I’m old. We’re old. And there are many older people in the neighborhood. But now, in the last few years, [there are] many more younger children, and they are SEE PARCEL, A24

As clock ticks toward Breeders’ Cup, Del Mar’s summer season opens BY TOD LEONARD There is a digital clock in the foyer of the executive offices of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. Its bright red numbers are in constant movement. Late Monday morning the clock read: 108 days, 12 hours, 23 minutes. And at that moment, 25 seconds. That is the countdown to when Del Mar will host for the first time the biggest two days in horse racing, the Breeders’ Cup, on Nov. 3-4. Glancing at the clock, one occupant of the office joked, “If you look at that clock too much, it will drive you crazy.” It is a reminder of the much-welcomed worldwide attention that will come for a race track that still is a mystery to some, while also emphasizing that Del Mar, in its 78th season, will be under more scrutiny than ever, beginning with the summer meeting that starts Wednesday, July 19 (after presstime for this newspaper). “There’s definitely a different flavor in the air,” Del Mar CEO and President Joe Harper said Monday. “It smells a little more international.” Entering his 41st season at the track, Harper was not his usual natty and well-coiffed self. He stood in the shade of some trees by the paddock, wearing a faded black polo, dusty black work pants and hiking shoes. The former Hollywood child actor looked like he’d just returned from pitching hay on the backstretch. Two days before the women in their outrageous hats were to arrive, hands were getting dirty all over the place in preparation. And yet Harper was still less harried than he was last year at this time. The 2016 meeting opened on Friday, July 15, with a quick 11-day turnaround after the San Diego County Fair. This year, Del Mar cut its racing schedule by three days with the hopes of giving its new superintendent more time to prepare the track while affording horses a longer rest following the close of Santa Anita’s meet July 4. “We lose some money but, frankly, it was

Del Mar CEO and President Joe Harper the right thing to do,” Harper said. “It gave us more time to get ready. It gave the horsemen more time on the track before the races start. We’re breathing a little easier.” The breath holding will come on opening day (after presstime for this newspaper) and in the subsequent seven weeks as Del Mar tries to overcome the bad memories and negative publicity that came with 17 horse deaths in last year’s summer meeting and another five in the shorter fall season. Protests from animal rights advocates grew more fervent as the summer season progressed and the deaths mounted, and Harper concluded at the end of the meet, “You look for a smoking gun, and sometimes there just isn’t one. The nature of the sport came to roost on our porch this summer. “We’re going to be doing many things that we hope will cut down on these problems in the future.” Harper and Del Mar appear to have kept their promise in attempting to make the racing safer.

Breeders’ Cup sales on record pace BY TOD LEONARD Joe Harper, CEO and president of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, has one word for how ticket sales have gone for this year’s Breeders’ Cup: “wow.” Harper said the Del Mar Breeders’ Cup is expected to generate about $15.5 million in ticket sales, and he said that’s more than any other track in the event’s history. Del Mar will have significantly smaller attendance than most of the venues, with about 38,000 on hand for the races on Friday, Nov. 3, and Saturday, Nov. 4. More than 72,000 attended on the corresponding Saturday last year at Santa Anita. “The interesting thing about Del Mar and why it makes sense for the Breeders’ Cup is that we have a tremendous amount of high-end seating,” Harper said. “We have directors’ suites and skyboxes, and there are a lot of restaurants. Some tracks have one nice kitchen; we have six.” Harper also pointed to the number of balconies facing the paddock side that were

designed into the main grandstand when it was re-built in the early 1990s. “If that ticket is $500 at another track for Breeders’ Cup, it becomes a $700 ticket here,” Harper said. “With the ticket prices where they are, we can say we don’t want more than 38,000. People don’t want (the size of) an opening day crowd.” On the official ticket website as of Tuesday morning, July 18, race fans who want to attend Saturday were limited to buying a $450 two-day package that offers a reserved box seat for Friday and general admission for Saturday; or infield general admission for $50. There are several options for Friday: $375 for a stretch-run box seat, infield Pacific Pavilion seating ($100), clubhouse walk-around ($75), general admission on the clubhouse side ($50) and infield general admission ($35).

Members of Canyon Crest Academy’s STEAM in Panama.

Students at the Metropolitan School of Panama experiment with robotics.

Canyon Crest nonprofit aims to bring robotics to Panama BY KAREN BILLING Canyon Crest Academy students have come together to form a new nonprofit called STEAM in Panama. The organization’s focus is on sponsoring a robotics team for middle school students at the Metropolitan School of Panama. Currently, Panama does not have a regional robotics representation in the FIRST Lego League and the group aims to create a program that will teach students to apply science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) concepts and ignite imagination and critical

thinking skills. The nonprofit was formed by a group of incoming Canyon Crest seniors, across multiple disciplines of Conservatory program, from humanities to art. The student leadership team includes Sarah Cheney, Daniel Bruce, Susan Wahl, Yang Qing and Ivy Li. The group receives guidance from mentor teachers Timothy Stiven, Zachary Brown of the humanities Conservatory, and Tony Mauro from robotics. Susan said the group would like to see the replication of the unique

CCA culture on other campuses, stressing the importance of the integration of art and STEM into schools and how it can benefit students and their communities. “Our goal is to create an interconnected community between schools in Panama and San Diego and help students from both schools experience cooperation, leadership, and cross cultural experiences,” said Susan, an art Conservatory student who is interested in pursuing a science major in college. “STEAM in Panama would create more

opportunities for Panamanian students to take initiative in STEM and arts- related projects.” The students hope to not only bring robotics to Panama but help them bring them to San Diego to compete in a robotics competition The nonprofit is looking for sponsors to help, with a goal of $5,000-$8,000 to provide 20 robotics kits for the Panamanian students.

At the July 13 meeting of the UC Regents, committee and board members approved the budget and external financing for the Living & Learning Neighborhood (LLN) to be built on North Torrey Pines Road. According to meeting minutes, the project amounts to $509,450,000 to be funded with external financing ($494,950,000), gift funds ($8 million) and housing reserves ($6.5 million). The budget should cover preliminary plans, working drawings, construction and equipment. The LLN plans call for the construction of six buildings, some of them as high as 14 stories, that will provide 2,000 beds for single undergraduate students, new instruction and research space for departments and programs within the divisions of social sciences and arts and humanities, general assignment classrooms SEE BUDGET, A18

TPHS student brings books to Brazil Beatriz De Oliveira making an impact with Books for a Change BY KAREN BILLING With her nonprofit Books for a Change, 15-year-old Torrey Pines High School sophomore Beatriz De Oliveira is sharing the love of reading with young children in Brazil. In less than a year, Bea has donated hundreds of books that reach more than 2,500 children in Brazilian daycare centers, called “creches.” “It has been really incredible,” Bea said. “I want to spread the passion of reading. Once you start reading, you can’t really stop. It helps as an entertaining pastime and a foundation of reading makes learning easier. I want to help those kids look toward their future and everything they can do.” Bea was born in Brazil and lived there until she was 3 years old. She often returns to Brazil to visit relatives and on a trip a few years ago, she accompanied her grandmother to a local public daycare. In Brazil, the government funds public daycares for children whose working parents are unable to care for them during the day. Bea came to donate some toys as her

grandmother taught English lessons and she was surprised by what she found: There were no books. “There was not a single book in the daycare, I was shocked,” said Bea, an avid reader who was always surrounded by books growing up. “In a building of 200 kids there was zero books.” Bea learned that there was no funding to provide books for the creches. As a result, she found many children lack the foundation of reading and concepts learned from books and go into the educational system unprepared and fall behind and repeat grade levels. A Regional Project for Education in Latin America and the Caribbean study found that the rate for repetition in elementary school grade levels in Brazil is 24.5 percent, with most children coming from areas of poverty. “A problem as simple as a lack of books in a daycare can lead a very bright child to lose hold of a promising future, continuing through the path of poverty and violence that prevails in the favelas and poor suburbs in Brazil,” Bea said.

Beatriz De Oliveira reading to children in Brazil. “I love reading and it’s always been a part of me. I wanted to do something to help my home away from home.” At just 14 years old, Bea started Books for a Change, with the idea to donate book shelves filled with 40 to 50 books each to the daycares. She designed her own logo, website and business cards and collected donations. In an effort to make her donations count, she did her research on the best books for each age group. As she travels to Brazil once a year, she was able to see the impact of her work on a trip last August. She won’t soon forget the sight of a 4-year-old child so enthralled by a book that they didn’t want to put it down. “Some of them have never even seen a book before in their entire

lives,” Bea said. “It’s amazing. When they see the books brought in, it’s the cutest thing. It means a lot to me to think that I’m giving them a chance, because reading is definitely something that they need. I’m giving a chance to someone who otherwise wouldn’t have had that opportunity.” Since beginning her nonprofit, Bea has formed a partnership with the Secretary of Education of Sertãozinho. The program is flourishing, with 400 books and 10 bookshelves donated to the city on June 22. This summer, Bea plans to make videos in Portuguese that will help teach children how to read with basics and activities — she hopes that

they will become an online resource that will reach even more people. Bea is also working to share the love of reading closer to her San Diego home. She has donated books to orphanages in Mexico and, on July 20, she donated 50 books to the Rady Children’s Hospital operating room. She hopes to replenish the library of books every few months. Bea would love to see her organization grow and hopes to start club chapters at local schools. “I would love to get the whole community involved,” Beatriz said. “It would be cool to see what an impact an entire community could make.” To learn more about Books for a Change, visit booksforachange.org.

Youth Arts Academy teen wins top national acting award Carlos Jimenez, 13, an acting student of Jolene “Jojo” Bogard’s at the Boys & Girls of San Dieguito’s Youth Arts Academy and Heyjojo productions in Carmel Valley, has just received the top teen acting award at the Shine Awards in Orlando, Fla. Carlos recently starred as the King in “The King and I.” “I starting taking acting classes with Jojo when I was only 9 years old and she has really helped me believe in myself and learn the art of performing,” Carlos said. “Winning this award was a huge boast to my career and knowing that I can achieve my goals.” “Carlos is a great student,” Bogard said. “He believes in studying the acting craft and wants to learn all aspects of the stage.

Q&A with local musical wunderkind BY SEBASTIAN MONTES hat if Kraftwerk had grown up sneaking around Del Mar’s choicest skate spots instead of fantasizing about the autobahn in 1970s Germany? Aaron M. Olson didn’t set out with such lofty aims, but the likeness is clear as the Del Mar native plays composer and frontman to L.A. Takedown, his seven-piece band building a name on the indie rock circuit on the strength of a well-received second album. Olson, a 2003 graduate of San Dieguito High School Academy, studied classical music history and theory at San Francisco State University before settling into the Los Angeles music scene. In 2015 he put out L.A. Takedown’s debut album, a single, sprawling 42-minute track that the L.A. Times contemplated as a new soundtrack for the city of angels. Olson then gathered together friends, including his older brother, and turned L.A. Takedown into a fully fleshed band churning out cinematic post-rock that never strays too far from Olson’s pop sensibilities. L.A. Takedown’s second album II (pronounced “dos”) dropped on May 10, drawing accolades from the likes of Noisey and NPR, and carried the band into a tour this spring that included an emotional stop at the Casbah in Little Italy. Having now settled back into his L.A. life — with an oh-so-apt gig at the Silver Lake

Library — Olson took time to reminisce about his first awkward shows at Del Mar Hills Elementary School, the subliminal influence of concerts at Powerhouse Park, the Del Mar Fairgrounds’ surprisingly hip acts, and how an hours-long walk to Black’s Beach became, 15 years later, the namesake inspiration for his band’s latest video. The conversation below has been edited for length and clarity. You started L.A. Takedown as a project to score a friend’s short films. The name comes from a 1989 movie by Michael Mann. Your songs are cinematic, instrumental compositions. Is that cinematic feel the essence of what you’re trying to do? Olson: What I’m really trying to do is to make music that I would enjoy listening to, and it just so happens that I enjoy film scores. So I guess my goal is to make music with that feeling of a film score but that also infuses elements of a three-minute pop song. Because I really am a big fan of pop music, from the Beatles to things like Tears for Fears. I’m trying to do things with instrumental music that can work those elements into it. I just love instrumental music. Growing up in Del Mar in the late ’90s and early 2000s, in the circles I ran in, everyone was really into Tortoise and all those Thrill Jockey and Drag City records, so I grew up with that ingrained in me. Did you have formative musical experiences at Del Mar Hills Elementary School?

There’s a lot of Del Mar in the music Aaron Olson is putting out with his band L.A. Takedown. Olson: I had a band in elementary school. We would practice at our drummer’s house; he lived just north of the Del Mar Plaza. We played at a couple assemblies. It was just whatever songs we happened to be able to figure out. I remember playing some probably pretty bad versions of Jimi Hendrix. I remember playing “Hey Mickey” — I have no idea why. This is 5th and 6th grade, so we were just figuring out our tastes, I guess. You went on to San Dieguito High School Academy. Do you remember your music teachers there? Was there someone who had a big influence on you? Olson: The two things that I did as a kid were music and skateboarding. They would kind of waver on which would be more at

the forefront. Once I got to high school, I started meeting more musicians, and all the music classes offered at San Dieguito were a big thing for me. When I started we had Dr. Van Decker. He provided a lot of resources. He brought in a recording arts class; he also started a MIDI class. Those were pretty big for me, to be able to spend two hours a day sitting in recording arts class or working on computer music. With a MIDI I could make impossible music — just the fastest, unending runs and scales, polyrhythmic stuff that I couldn’t play on my own. I think, in turn, that got me into Philip Glass and Tangerine Dream and things influenced by minimalism. Those were things that weren’t available at many high schools, for sure. SEE AAROM OLSON, A26

Young Magic the Gathering player casts a spell BY KAREN BILLING Dana Fischer, 6 years old going on 7 July 23, is making a name for herself in the Magic the Gathering competition realm. As there are no age brackets, the youngster competes against mostly adults and mostly males in a game suggested for players 13 and older. Magic the Gathering is a trading card game created in 1993 by Wizards of the Coast. It started as a collectible card game but evolved into a more competitive aspect of play with tournaments all over the world. Players face off one on one, each with a deck of cards and 20 lives — they battle by playing planeswalkers who cast spells or employ creatures that attack to defeat their opponents. Dana, who is entering the second grade at Ocean Air Elementary School, has competed in several regional Magic the Gathering Grand Prix events: Portland in August 2016, Denver in December 2016, San Jose in January 2017 and two events in Las Vegas this June. At these big tournaments there are 1,500 to 3,000 people competing for cash prizes or to qualify for the Pro Tour where there are even bigger cash prizes. To make the cut for the second day of the competitive tournaments, players must win six of nine rounds. Dana’s best outings so far were in San Jose where she went 4-5 and the tournament in Las Vegas, going 5-4 and just missing the second day cut. In going 5-4 she beat 55 percent of the over 3,000 mostly adult players in the field. “My goal is to be the youngest player to make day two. The youngest we’ve heard of was 10,” Dana said. At 6 years old with a spunky personality, often wearing her trademark backward cap or sunglasses—Dana tends to attract a lot of attention. Her father, Adam Fischer, stands off to the side while she competes but never leaves her truly alone, since she is only 6. He can help with strategies and suggestions before the matches but can offer no coaching during the match — she’s all on her own.

Dana Fischer is grabbing attention at Magic the Gathering tournaments.

COURTESY

Fischer, who played on the Magic the Gathering Pro Tour for a year in 2003, taught both Dana and her sister how to play the game. “Dana really took to it. At 3-and-a-half years old, she played by memorizing the cards by the artwork because she couldn’t read yet,” Fischer said. “I saw the card and knew what it did,” Dana said. “I played with my dad to start and my sister but now my sister has no interest.” Fischer admits learning to play the complex game takes a lot of commitment and time. To hone her skills Dana plays against her dad and reads reviews about good cards and bad cards in order to build her set. There are also smaller tournaments at local game stores such as At Ease Games in Mira Mesa that Dana will try to play in about once a week. In May 2016, Dana competed in her first big tournament in Los Angeles at age 5 as part of a side event. She then went

on to the four regional Grand Prix events, fun excursions with her dad to new cities, taking on new challenges and making new friends along the way. With Magic, she is constantly reading reviews and doing a ton of math. Dana said math is her best subject and Magic involves a lot of adding, multiplication and keeping track of cards— “It takes a while to figure out,” she said. “In my view, her strength is her ability to stay focused,” Fischer said. Nine matches of 20-plus games over a 12-hour period with only minor breaks — that’s a lot of attention span for a 6-year-old or any age. As a young girl taking on adults, Dana is starting to get well-known on the Magic circuit — one of her featured matches was streamed online to tens of thousands of viewers via Twitch and she was invited to a VIP party in Vegas. While she was excited to meet some players, she was surprised to find they were excited to meet her. “Everybody knew me so I got pulled straight into the party!” Dana said excitedly. As an additional special treat in Vegas, Dana was allowed to stay up late with a friend in their hotel room and she didn’t get to sleep until 2:30 a.m. “It wasn’t a good idea,” Dana admits. Next up for Dana is four days of Magic fun at Comic-Con where she is excited to wear her Nissa costume for the first time. “She’s my favorite planeswalker,” Dana said. Dana will then hit the road again in August for a Grand Prix tournament in Minneapolis. If she makes it to day two, her prize from dad is that she can compete in a Magic Grand Prix in a different country, giving her goal an added weight. Fischer, the former Magic pro, said he often gets asked if he misses playing the game himself. He said he’d love to play again in the future and if Dana keeps it up, there may be opportunities to play side-by-side in some game formats. For now, he says, he is enjoying watching her play more.

Former stand-up comedian creates new laughs in first book BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY When Robbie Pickard came across nearly 40 narratives he had written over the years, he didn’t want to just flush the ideas down the toilet, so to speak. But the Encinitas-based former stand-up comedian didn’t feel like turning them into jokes either. So, Pickard decided to take his humor skills into another venture: writing his first book. “Toilet Material: Very Short Stories for Very Short Attention Spans,” which was released last month and supported by a Kickstarter fundraising campaign, includes the 38 short stories Pickard wrote over the years. Pickard, who began his comedy career working at the Irvine Improv in Orange County while studying journalism at UC Irvine, described the work as “if Saturday Night Live was a book.” “I was looking at this backlog of standup ideas on my laptop, thinking these things could either die or I could try to do something else with them,” said the 33-year-old former comedian who was a regular performer at Hollywood and Orange County clubs for eight years before moving away from the profession two years ago. He is now a senior copywriter in the advertising/marketing field. “After toying around with how to transfer these standups into short stories, it finally clicked.” However, realizing the costs of publishing his own book, Pickard decided to leave his work’s fate into the hands of fans. Luckily, they liked his idea, too, raising more than $11,000 in a 30-day online fundraiser on

Robbie Pickard delivers 350 copies of his book “Toilet Material” to people who supported him on Kickstarter.

Kickstarter.com. Pickard considers Kickstarter a “wonderful tool” for today’s emerging artists. “There are so many avenues now to get things done, whatever you want to do,” he said. “If you want it bad enough, there’s always a way. Kickstarter was a great way to prove that there was an audience for this idea.” Reviewers on Amazon.com, where the book is available for purchase, have praised “Toilet Material.” Pickard also received testimonials from former SNL cast members and other professional stand-up comedians. Former SNL performer Brooks Wheelan considered the book “such a fun, easy read. Like for

children, except don’t let children read this.” The stories, which include fiction and non-fiction, range from between one and five pages long. They are unrelated and can be read in any order. “Toilet Material’s” short length, at about 120 pages, is aimed at the common short attention spans people possess today, Pickard said. He added that the stories are ideal for quick reads in places like the bathroom, at an airport or at a doctor’s office. “The whole idea of calling it ‘Toilet Material’ was trying to find some structure,” he said. “It was kind of a way to play up the fact that people today are used to getting a lot of content really quickly and our

attention spans are very short. I wanted to write the kind of book that got read by today’s audience.” Pickard, who is in the early stages of writing his second release, a comic novel, said he hopes his “Toilet Material” book offers readers an escape. “It’s sort of the idea that this world is so busy and we’re always surrounded by tasks. Being in the bathroom is sort of the quietest time people have now,” he said. “I make the joke that it’s really the only ‘you’ time that we have left.” To purchase “Toilet Material” visit amzn.to/2uegCLu.

FROM RENTALS, A1 would happen to it. It’s happened to many of the houses around us, and that is: the house will be torn down. The bluff will be gutted so that a lot more square footage can be built underneath. And it’ll be another drywall and marble palace for the wealthy. I don’t think that’s what you want to see for Del Mar.” Meanwhile, the group of residents that have mobilized against STRs — Save Our Neighborhood Del Mar — took umbrage Monday night at the thought that they will have to endure STRs for another year. They believe February 2018 — when a city moratorium is set to expire — to be a “suitable and generous” deadline for enforcement. The council also moved forward on requiring homeowners to register with the city before being allowed to rent, but shied away from requiring a business license. They also agreed to look into exempting time shares as well as a handful of properties that fall into unique zoning circumstances. Registration would be as minimal as possible. “One-time only registration, light easy breezy. But once they’re registered, that’s it,” said Councilwoman Sheryl Parks.

But Councilman Dave Druker took issue with the requirement. “I think you’re making a huge mistake,” he said. “I just see where this is going to bite us back if we sit here and demand that anybody who wants to rent out their place for one week or do a home swap for one week has to come and tell the city that they’re doing that. It’s just unimaginable to me.” The council found consensus on taking a proactive approach on enforcement and outreach. “This is going to take a lot of public education and we have to be proactive about it,” Haviland. The city will also look into hiring an outside company to monitor rentals and enforce the city’s eventual policies. “There’s no way our staff is going to be able to do that,” Druker said. “If you want people not to rent for more than four weeks a year, you’re going to have to have someone outside looking daily at the Internet.” Once the full scope of the city’s STR policy takes shape, it will head to the city planning commission for approval before facing a major hurdle with the California Coastal Commission.

there that he also opened the gates to the public and took tickets from excited fans. And the best surprise of the day was that Crosby debuted “Where the Turf Meets the Surf” for all of radio-land and the grandstands to hear. Such fun history here in

Sheriff's Department: Don't fly drones near fire operations It is wildfire season and the Jennings Fire in East County recently showed just how fast a spark can ignite a massive fire. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, CAL FIRE and U.S. Forest Service are reminding the public to stop flying drones near fire operations. To watch a public safety video about drones, follow the Sheriff’s Department on VIMEO: vimeo.com/225615450. When a drone is in the sky, firefighting planes and helicopters are grounded because a collision could be disastrous. This delay in air support also puts ground crews battling the fire at risk. It is against federal law to interfere with firefighting efforts to put out a fire. Remember: “If You Fly, We Can’t.”

FROM BUDGET, A6 and community spaces such as a dining hall and retail. Anu Delouri, UC San Diego communications and planning assistant director, wrote in an e-mail to this newspaper group, “The campus is preparing an Environmental Impact Report to comply with CEQA — that requires a 45-day public review period, which will begin in November 2017. The project is expected to be on the March 2018 Regents Meeting agenda for approval of design and certification of the EIR.” The UC Regents also approved a budget line of $12 million from campus funds for the Ridge Walk Academic Complex (preliminary plans and working drawings).

CCA volleyball coach focuses on mental, emotional aspect of being an athlete BY GIDEON RUBIN Considering her background, Rachel Morris might not on the surface appear to be the best candidate to coach one of the area’s most competitive high school volleyball programs. As a promising Division I prospect, Morris quit the sport midway through her junior year of high school. She’d had enough of the yelling, the screaming and the insensitivity of coaches who micromanaged every part of the game but didn’t pay much attention to what their players experienced as human beings. She’s channeled those sentiments into a coaching philosophy that emphasizes the mental and emotional parts of being a competitive athlete that she believes is frequently overlooked. Morris has put that philosophy into practice at Canyon Crest Academy, where she serves as co-head coach of the volleyball program with Ariel Haas. “I got into coaching to give to young athletes what I didn’t receive when I was growing up as a young athlete,” Morris said. Morris grew up in Manhattan Beach and started playing club volleyball when she was 7 in one of the nation’s most competitive regions. She was playing high school ball at Mira Costa High when the burnout got to be too much. Morris went on to play college ball at Oregon, walking on as a freshman and eventually earning a scholarship to play in the elite Pacific-12 Conference. Morris is in her fifth year coaching at

CCA. To say that she herself never envisioned her current role would be an understatement. “When I was a young athlete I remember telling my mom, I will never coach volleyball,” Morris said. “It seemed so boring, like why would I want to spend my weekends and my time doing that? “I remember that very vividly. I had zero interest in coaching.” Morris’ attitude towards coaching changed at Oregon, where she found a coaching staff pushed athletes without pushing them out to the door. She found herself enjoying coaching summer camps towards the end of her collegiate career in Eugene. “That’s kind of what motivated me to be the coach that I am, having people that were there to lift me up in tough times really showed me that this isn’t just a game, that there are so many life lessons, so many ups and downs,” Morris said. Morris uses motivational quotes and has a reading list for players on the high school and club teams. Tops on her reading list right now is Ryan Holiday’s “The Obstacle Is the Way: The Timeless Art of Turning Trials into Triumph.” But the most important element of coaching in Morris’ view is relationship-building. She does what she can to keep up with daily challenges her players face, everything from illnesses and injuries to tests and schoolwork. “If you have an athlete that truly believes that you believe in them they’ll run

ANNA SCIPIONE

CCA volleyball coach Rachel Morris through walls for you,” Morris said. Morris’ coaching style has won her high marks from players who appreciate a coach who’s in tune with the pressures and demands today’s high school athletes face. “She’s very involved in each kid and she really cares about each player individually, not only in their volleyball but personally

in a way that helps the player-coach connection be stronger,” said Hannah Martin, a USC-bound outside hitter who’ll be a senior this year.” Morris has fostered relationships that outlast the coaching. Former Torrey Pines standout Savvy Simo, who now plays at USC, and Kalie Wood, who’s now at Columbia, are among the growing list of top-level athletes she’s coached at CCA and the Wave club team. Haas believes Morris’ ability to build trust with players makes her a better coach. “She relates really well to the players,” Haas said. “She understands what they’re going through with their feelings and emotions and is able earn their trust. “A lot of teaching and coaching is about trust.” Morris said she learned through her own experience as a player how important an element of coaching compassion can be. She recalls one occasion when a coach found her sitting by herself in the locker room minutes before warmups, tears streaming down her face as she was grieving the death of her friend days earlier. “I remember being an absolute wreck,” Morris said. “One of my coaches came in there and was literally sitting in there holding me. “Wiped my face, got on the court, got out there and started playing,” Those are the types of memories that she believes aren’t easily forgotten. “I don’t remember the games, I don’t remember how many assists I had or many digs I had or aces,” Morris said. “Those are the things I remember.”

Del Mar resident riding for a cure in the 2017 Pan-Mass Challenge On Aug. 5 and 6, Ellen Kirk of Del Mar will cycle up to 192 miles in the Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) with the goal of raising $48 million for critical research and cancer care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. During PMC weekend, more than 6,200 cyclists from more than 40 states and eight countries will return to Massachusetts to participate in the PMC, choosing from 12 routes of varying mileage that run through 46 towns. Cyclists are anywhere between 15 and 84 years old and range from seasoned triathletes to weekend warriors who trained for this event alone and everything in between. “We are thrilled to be approaching our 38th PMC ride weekend. Seeing our growth over the years has been truly incredible and we look forward to achieving our fundraising goal of $48 million for Dana-Farber,” said Billy Starr, founder and executive director of the PMC. “We want to wish all of our riders and volunteers a safe and enjoyable ride weekend – I’ll see everyone out on the road.” Many riders participate in the PMC to honor a family member or friend lost to, or being treated for, cancer. More than 820 riders and volunteers are cancer survivors or current patients, considered “Living Proof” of the PMC mission to find a cure. The average cyclist trains for three months, solicits 40 sponsors and raises more than $7,000. Volunteers, spectators, donors and sponsors are part of the camaraderie on ride weekend, all working

Carmel Valley students work on lagoon nature projects The San Diego students of the Alliance Youth Leaders of the United States (AYLUS), who are from local schools, worked on five lagoon nature projects with staff from the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy (SDVRC) for five weeks recently. They removed weeds, widened trail paths by one foot on each side, and gathered seeds from local plants to restore the habitat at the San Elijo Lagoon. There are many animal and bird species living in the lagoon. A professional biologist, Joe DeWolf, who works in the park, educated the students with facts on biology, ecology, ecosystem and conservation. DeWolf thanked the students for their work to keep the lagoon sustainable and beautiful. The site was close to the old runway of the Del Mar airport. In 1941, after Pearl Harbor, the U.S. Navy reacquired this airport to use as a base for two lighter-than-air dirigibles. The blimps refueled at Del Mar and then continued anti-submarine patrols up and down the coast up to 100 miles offshore. The location became a site for conservation in the 1970s. At first birds would not build their nests at the site since it did not have good surface earth. Through the hard work of the local community, now birds and animals have used the site as their habitat. There are fish in the wetlands. The students who participated in the lagoon nature projects are: Christopher Yang, Stephen Yang, Mike Bai, Jeffrey Guo, Nathan Guo, Anthony Jiang, Claire Jiang, Eric Li, Raymond Li, Andrew Peng, Ethan Tran, Timothy Tran, Michael Wang, Richard Wu, Lynne Xu, Amanda Zhang, Andrew Zhang, Ashley Zhang, Patrick Zhang, Zoe Zhang, and Samantha Zhu.

‘Secretariat-like’ Arrogate roars from shadows, settles into Del Mar BY BRYCE MILLER When four-legged star Arrogate sauntered into the barns at Del Mar under the failing darkness Monday morning, it would have been easy to trot out the analogy of Michael Jordan moving into your exclusive condo for the summer. The horse, who ripped off an unprecedented 7-month run to become the richest winner in history, nudged revered trainer Bob Baffert to ask whether he’s the best the business has seen since standard-smashing Secretariat. Arrogate is no Jordan, though. Sure, Arrogate roared to the fastest time at the Travers in its 147 runnings … in his first stakes race. He chased down California Chrome — winner of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Dubai World Cup and Breeders’ Cup Classic — in the most recent Classic at Santa Anita. He confidently crushed the field in the $12 million Pegasus Cup, followed by a last-to-first stunner in Dubai. Jordan was known — a face and resume as ubiquitous as Nike’s swoosh. Arrogate is a superstar thrashing his sport in the shadows. He stirs awe in stables and straightaways, but lacks the mainstream exposure afforded Triple Crown darlings like American Pharoah. The undisputed No. 1 horse in the world is calling Del Mar his home, all summer long. In a sport dangling at the edge of America’s fringe, will anyone notice? “Well, he’s certainly Secretariat-like,” Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith said. “If he remains healthy and keeps doing what he’s doing, it would be a helluva argument.” Arrogate is greatness accelerated. The best in the sport build their cases over time and from the start. Spectacular Bid, Seattle Slew, Zenyatta, Affirmed and Citation all won

COLUMN their first races before gobbling stakes races like carrots. In April 2016, Arrogate finished third in a 6-furlong maiden race at Los Alamitos. Westbrook and Accelerate, the race’s 1-2, now sit nearly $16.6 million behind the horse that eventually found the gas pedal — and jammed it through the floor board. If the race had been 6½ furlongs, the hard-charging rookie would be unbeaten. “I was there,” Baffert said. “He just had a bad trip. Didn’t break. Every spot he was in was a tough spot. When he tried to get in, a hole would close. The last 100 yards, he was coming like a steam train. He just ran out of ground. We knew he was a good horse. “Hey, American Pharoah lost his first time out.” Baffert showed unusual patience with Arrogate, sidelining him from Triple Crown races as a 3-year-old. That slow, measured approach meant he failed to crash America’s consciousness — and TV lineups. That lined up Arrogate, however, to bank nearly $17.1 million and crush earnings records away from the spotlight. “He’s the best horse in the world that nobody knows about,” Baffert said. Hall of Fame jockey and NBC analyst Jerry Bailey said the route and rise feels unprecedented. “I don’t ever remember taking a horse that was completely off the radar and saying, if this horse does this and that, it will be 3-year-old of the year,” Bailey said. “People would laugh at you. But that’s exactly what happened. SEE ARROGATE, A24

Summer should be a restful time for you and your garden. It’s not a good time to plant, but can be a great season for planning. Relax, take a seat, take stock of what’s thriving and what’s not. Which of your flowers and trees are popular with birds and bees? Fall might be a good time to plant more of these. Where could you use more shade on hot days? Imagine a filter of palm or tree leaves. Seeing a plant that has seen better days? Maybe it’s time to just let it go. The September SeaWeeders meeting will be held on Tuesday, Sept 12 at 6:30 p.m. Seaweeders will be hosting its annual ice cream social at garden club member Tina Zucker’s Home Garden & Succulent Nursery located at 552 Seabright Lane, Solana Beach.

SeaWeeders Tip: Relax this summer and plan your fall garden

BY GORDON CLANTON

The delicate dance of summer politics Although the 2018 general election is more than year away, this summer is the staging time, the season of the delicate dance in which potential candidates enter or drop out of key races, seek endorsements, make deals, and launch incessant fundraising campaigns. The race for 2018 already is under way. As Boss Tweed said, “I don’t care who does the voting as long as I do the nominating.” Political junkies get involved early, hoping to shape the field. Third challenger joins key

race. In the June 15 column I mentioned rumors that a third Democrat would enter the race to repeal and replace Trump-friendly Republican Congressman Darrell Issa. The 49th District includes Del Mar, Solana Beach, Encinitas and Camp Pendleton. In 2016 political unknown Doug Applegate came within 1,621 votes of defeating Issa. Applegate, an attorney and retired Marine colonel from southern Orange County, quickly announced that he would run again in 2018. A second challenger soon entered

the race. Attorney Mike Levin, also from Orange County, has mounted a strong campaign and picked up some key endorsements. Now a third Democratic challenger has declared. Paul Kerr is a Rancho Santa Fe resident and real estate investor who apparently intends to self-finance his campaign. I hate it when Democrats spend big money campaigning against other Dems. But this is where we are: Three credible Democrats running to finish second in the June 2018 primary so they can face Issa in November. You can meet, hear and question all three Sept. 14 at the monthly meeting of the Rancho Santa Fe Democratic Club. More information can be found at rsfdem.org. Open-seat scramble. Supervisor Ron Roberts is terming out and the race to replace him will be high political drama.

Although the board is 5-0 Republican, the demographics of the Fourth District favor Democrats. After months of speculation, Nathan Fletcher recently declared for this seat. The former Republican assemblyman ran twice for mayor of San Diego – once as an independent, once as a Democrat. In January 2017 Fletcher married Democratic Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzales. And they go everywhere together. Another announced candidate is Democrat Omar Passons, an attorney and community activist. On the Republican side, it is widely believed that DA Bonnie Dumanis resigned early in order to run for supervisor. The drama and comedy of local politics . . .

FROM WETLAND, A4 the fish-eating raptors perch. On the south side of the site is a strip of creamy white sand that’s identified as nesting habitat for least terns, an endangered, ground-nesting bird. There are no breeding pairs there now, but officials hope the improved habitat will prompt them to move in, said Dustin Fuller, supervising environmental planner for the fairgrounds. “It’s a challenge because creating habitat where it hasn’t been is always difficult,” he said. The wetland project also completes a key segment of the “Coast to Crest” trail, which

FROM CLASSROOMS, A1 In voting in favor of the proposal, SDUHSD Board President Amy Herman and board member Beth Hergesheimer acknowledged that there are capacity issues with the ATP portables but they were aiming for a short-term solution for the coming school year. Herman said she has concerns about making the existing facilities safe and light. “It will not get better if we don’t have ventilation and windows,” Herman said. “I’m committed to making sure that as we move forward we come up with better solutions.” “Regardless of who gets put in this room, I want it to be the best room it can be,” Hergesheimer said. “If it’s space we’re going to be using, I want it to be the best it can be.” Tensions ran high among parents in the audience, who chanted “vote no” and shouted out their frustrations with the board, “doors and windows don’t increase space!” Muir said she thought an emergency meeting should have been called to make sure the issue was addressed and continued to advocate for a special board meeting the following week, a request echoed by Salazar and several community members via emails to the board.

starts at Volcan Mountain near Julian, and will end at the beach at Del Mar. The 71-mile trail will accommodate hikers, horses and bicycles and traverse wetlands, chaparral, open meadows and dense forest. In Del Mar, it winds around the north side of the new wetlands, and will eventually cross to the shoreline, Fuller said. A decomposed granite trail winds around the north side of the wetland, while the former boardwalk has been fashioned into an outlook with a view of the marsh. That was a compromise between local trail advocates’ desire to preserve the structure, and the Coastal Commission’s order to remove the boardwalk to make way for wetland, Fuller said.

“I’m afraid if we vote yes, nothing will be done for 20 years,” Muir said. “I’ve seen portables last forever on school campuses.” The two 1,400-square-foot portables have a total of three small windows — only one window in the students’ instructional space as the other two are in the conference room and teachers’ offices. There are no windows in the bathrooms, no windows in the kitchenette and no windows in the sensory room. The four-year program currently has three teachers, 20 students and 10 aides. Next year there could be as many as 47 students — along with the needed support staff there could be approximately 62 adults in the two portables with only two bathrooms. Parent Lucile Lynch said after a recent tour of the new Earl Warren campus last week, many parents of ATP students left in tears after seeing the “expansive” middle school classrooms with high ceilings, multiple white boards and LED light “chandeliers” compared to the small portables with florescent lighting, one white board and little natural light. One parent said it smelled badly in the portables and another said it was unbearably hot inside. “I feel the district is not hearing or sharing our message right. It’s not about windows, it’s not about

FROM CLIMATE, A1 together in what was known as “the Clean and Green team.” That segued last year into the city’s official Climate Action Commission, which hammered out the climate plan over 16 meetings in 14 months, arriving in May at a draft that then drew more than 100 public comments by the time it reached the city council. That legacy filled the council chambers July 12 as Mayor Mike Nichols read off names from a long list of devotees who had brought the city to its historic vote. “People need to understand: this is a lot of work, and people have really given their heart and soul for this, so thank you very much,” he said. Searching for more perspective, he cited the earlier testimony of a resident who quoted Jonas Salk’s famous query: Are we being good ancestors? “I thought that was a very special way of saying ‘Hey, think about it, in a very broad spectrum, are we doing the right thing for future generations?” Nichols said.

The site is stark and muddy now, but officials plan to begin the next phase — planting native vegetation — after September, to avoid summer heat that could kill the plants, Fuller said. Different varieties of sunflower, saltbush, sagebrush and poppies will eventually spread across the site. Although many of the plants are salt-resistant, officials had to adjust the soil mixture to allow tidal water to drain properly and keep the site from becoming too salty, he said. Workers were recently installing irrigation lines, but within five years, they hope the habitat will be self-sustaining. “I’m optimistic this will take care of itself,” Fuller said.

portables, it’s about equality plain and simple. Equality in design, equality in programming, equality in your investment,” said parent Joanne Stress. “Someone made a choice not to provide equal housing…This is the most environmentally-sensitive population and yet they were given the least design consideration of anyone on campus.” Whether the board added windows or not, Lynch said there is still the issue of whether or not there’s enough capacity for the students to even be in them. “Our population was put in portables, we were not part of Prop AA master planning or funding,” Lynch said of special education in general. “We don’t have the space to teach all of these kids at the same time in this facility... and accommodate future needs.” Salazar said as a board they did not pick to put the ATP facilities on the middle school campus. “These are not acceptable buildings at all. Whoever picked these really let you all down and did a very, very poor job. If we had to go portable, which I don’t know why we had to, there are many high quality portable classrooms,” Salazar said. “This is something you’d see at a construction site.” Salazar suggested options such as moving ATP into the auditorium or

Despite the festive mood, several of the CAP’s most ardent supporters repeated their hope that the city will make the document legally binding. Unlike the climate plans for the cities of San Diego, Carlsbad, Vista and San Marcos, Solana Beach’s CAP is merely aspirational. The Climate Action Campaign applauded the CAP overall but called on the council to make the plan legally binding. Nicole Capretz, CAC’s executive director, helped shape the CAP as a member of the city’s climate commission. “If it were legally binding, it would not be subject to the political whims of changing councilmembers and politics,” Capretz wrote in a statement read to the council. “We know cities don’t necessarily like accountability, but this plan is about the biggest crisis facing humanity. If cities don’t want accountability for climate action, what public policy issue will they take accountability for?” Councilman Dave Zito pointed to troubles in cities that did so. “The trend seems to be you create something legally enforceable, you’re going to get sued,” he said. “I think it’s a good point as we go

The fairgrounds team carved the wetland out of the former parking lot after reaching an agreement with the Coastal Commission that allowed them to keep using the overflow parking east of the fairgrounds in exchange for restoring the marsh habitat, Fuller said. Workers excavated 72,000 cubic yards of soil in order to dig out channels where tidal flows inundate the site and then retreat, creating habitat that’s a nursery for fish, birds and other species. They used some of that soil to elevate the trail and create berms between the trail and road, and disposed of the rest at a landfill, he said. – Deborah Sullivan Brennan is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

suggesting an Earl Warren class goes into the portables and ATP gets a brand new classroom on campus. “If this board votes no then we will finally send a real message to the administrators here and say stop being administrators and bureaucrats and fix it now,” Salazar said. “It is a horrible message to say we approve this. “These are the people we work for, we don’t work for the administrators. We’re working for these children. And it just annoys me so much that we have to go along to get along. Let’s make a stand right now that we support special education,” Salazar said. Herman said she understood the parents’ frustrations and said the district has been working on many of the issues that have been brought before the board — the portables were part of the complaints in a petition submitted by special education parents to the board in June that alleged unequal treatment and facilities. Sitting in for Superintendent Eric Dill, who had fallen ill before the meeting, Assistant Superintendent Michael Grove said they have the challenge of working on a very tight timeline to get the facility ready before school begins in August. Grove said the district recognizes that there needs to be ongoing conversations, both about the

through this to think about: Do we want to spend that money defending lawsuits or do we want to spend that money on implementing policies?” Legally binding would require an exhaustive analysis and certification under the California Environmental Quality Act. Mayor Mike Nichols said the city will revisit the idea at a later date. Also still to come is a study on the costs and complications that the CAP will create. That analysis won’t come until the city crafts the CAP’s implementation plan at the end of this year. “So I’m supposed to vote for something that I don’t know how much it’s going to cost? I’m not comfortable doing that,” said Deputy Mayor Ginger Marshall, who cast the lone dissenting vote. Marshall pointed to a request from the San Diego County Taxpayers Association asking the city to hold off until the group completes a feasibility study later this summer. “I’m all for clean energy. I have solar panels on my house. I drive a hybrid vehicle. But I’m also fiscally responsible to the taxpayers of this

short-term capacity needs for ATP and the best options for long-term solutions. Grove said they are listening to the feedback and determining what they can do in the immediate term given that the facility has to open in a month. “I think all of us believe that our best option likely is to try and work with Mira Costa to try and get the program hosted there, but that is not going to happen in the next month,” Grove said. “We need to engage our families, have discussions around what are the short-term needs and what can we do now and what are the long-term needs and how do we get there.” Meredith Wadley, the new director of school and student services, said she has found an available classroom in a satellite Mira Costa Community College facility that ATP might be able to utilize. She said she is committed to finding a solution and engaging parents — she was expected to set up a site visit at the Mira Costa facility in the coming week to see if it might be suitable for the program. In her efforts to find a positive solution, Lynch contacted Mira Costa on her own and has a visitation scheduled on July 24. The board is holding a special education workshop prior to next month’s board meeting.

town, and the costs have not been outlined,” Marshall said. “I do remember Dr. [Mary] Yang [of the city’s climate commission] saying in a separate meeting that there will be pain. Everything is a cost-benefit analysis.” Councilwoman Judy Hegenauer, who has for years made climate change and energy alternatives her top issues, countered that the alternative is far worse. “The scenarios that come from not doing anything are horrendous. Once we figure out the cost of not doing anything, I think the cost of doing something will be very much justified,” she said. Zito offered up the example of the federal shoreline replenishment project that is heading toward a price tag beyond $50 million. “That’s just one small element of the cost of climate change, and we’re already trying to encourage the federal government to spend up to $150 million, if you include Encinitas, on that whole project,” he said. “So I’m not quite as worried about the cost-benefit analysis because at this point it’s becoming somewhat intuitively obvious.” Read the CAP at www.ci.solana-beach.ca.us.

FROM ARROGATE, A22

FROM CLEWS, A2

“It’s insane what this horse has done.” Suddenly, the bounty of Arrogate’s dizzying climb benefits Del Mar, which Wednesday opened its annual summer meeting. Baffert plans to position his star for a Breeders’ Cup Classic defense this November at Del Mar. To limit travel, Arrogate is arriving in time to also run in the track’s San Diego Handicap on July 22 and season gem, the Pacific Classic, on Aug. 19. “We’re the case of being in the right place at the right time,” said Mac McBride, Del Mar’s director of media. “Horses are like strawberries. They can go south real fast. But he’s entered a whole new world. This tilts all perspective.” Questions swirled about whether Baffert would run Arrogate in all three Del Mar races. His thought: Why not? “If everything’s good, sure,” Baffert said. “Right now, I don’t see why I wouldn’t.” The target on Arrogate’s back will continue to grow, Bailey insisted. “So many times in this sport you have a horse that’s dominant, but he’s got a certain style,” he said. “If he’s a come-from-behind horse you can say, well, if we can get away with an easy lead with a quality horse and set a fast pace, maybe he won’t catch us. “If he’s a front-runner, let’s put a rabbit out there (to push the pace) and soften him up and we can come from behind and beat him. Anybody plotting to beat this horse strategically, can’t possible have a plan. “This horse has no discernible weaknesses.” Even Jordan could appreciate that. The ‘Other’ Arrogate at Del Mar This isn’t the first time a star named Arrogate shook up the horse racing world at Del Mar. The late-1950s version of Arrogate, who won 20 of his labor-intensive 83 career starts, propelled jockey John Longden to racing history. The duo won the Del Mar Handicap on Sept. 3, 1956, to push Longden to a record 4,871 wins. In the background of a photo showing Longden addressing the Del Mar crowd, Desi Arnaz — the actor, musician and husband of Lucille Ball — looked on. Fourteen years later, also on Labor Day and at the same track, Bill Shoemaker broke Longden’s victories mark. The old Arrogate proved to be a big-money horse, too, winning the equivalent of $1.9 million in today’s dollars. – Bryce Miller is a San Diego Union-Tribune sports columnist

At Thursday’s hearing, Tennen, Clews’ attorney, said Clews was requesting permission to attend three other churches in the area which are not next to schools. His attorney said the requirement that Clews be monitored during worship amounted to a violation of his constitutional rights of freedom of religion. Schopler agreed to relax one condition - allowing a family member to serve as Clews’ monitor - but he declined to remove the condition entirely. While there are no schools next to the churches Clews wants to attend, said the judge, “Children still attend churches everywhere.” “I’m trying to meet (Clews) halfway, but I have to maintain the safety of the community,” Schopler said. Clews is a former long-time member of the Carmel Valley

FROM PARCEL, A4 walking to school. There’s no sidewalks. The streets are very narrow. You have young mothers walking their little babies on these streets. … The children are on their skateboards. We’re seeing at least 15 every morning. I would like to see it be made safe for the children and for the mothers.” Perry Sexton, a physician who lives nearby, echoed several requests asking that the traffic studies be done while schools are in session and that they also consider emergency vehicles in addition to regular traffic. “I take care of a lot of patients that live in facilities like this, and so I see how many of these patients fall every day. When a patient falls, they’re going to be visited by an ambulance … and all of those are going to be coming as though it’s an emergency,” he said. “If they’re doing that at a time when there are children who are loading onto school grounds, you’re going to be setting yourself up for some pretty significant accident risks.” Two more workshops will be held before the development team submits its draft EIR to the city council roughly at the end of this year. The project’s “specific plan” — which will include a zoning change to nearly triple its density — will require a special mail-in vote, probably in a November-January timeframe, DeWald said. If that passes, the project will then go to the California Coastal Commission for approval. Under that timeline, DeWald said groundbreaking might not come for as much as two years.

FROM DEL MAR, A5 superintendent Dennis Moore to create a dirt racing surface that’s more consistent with Santa Anita’s; turns on the course were further banked to relieve stress on the horses’ legs; at least 200 fewer horses will be housed at Del Mar, reducing the number of overall workouts; and Harper said a system of greater scrutiny among veterinarians and track workers has been instituted in an effort to identify unhealthy horses before they’re entered in a race. Any horse that hasn’t raced in more than a year will be carefully watched, Harper said. “I was out there this morning and saw a horse that was a little sore,” Harper said. “It doesn’t mean he’s going to snap his leg off, and they may not run him, but those are the horses you want to take a closer look at.” On Monday, Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert said he had yet to breeze horses on the new Del Mar track, but added that he’d heard “good things” from jockeys after workouts began Saturday. Baffert is a staunch defender of Del Mar’s practices and noted he trained the current No. 1 horse in the world, Arrogate, here all last summer and brought the winner of $17 million to race at Del Mar twice this summer before entering him in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. “If I was worried about it, I wouldn’t be here with my horses,” Baffert said. He added, “One thing that’s

Community Planning Group. He stepped down from his seat last November. According to a complaint filed in federal district court in December, agents executed a search warrant at the Clews Horse Ranch, which includes the family’s home, on Oct. 28, following a two-year investigation related to possession and distribution of child pornography. During the search, investigators seized several electronic devices from Clews and his residence, which contained numerous child pornography image and video files, said the complaint. The court document said Clews admitted on Oct. 28 to possessing and distributing child pornography. The horse ranch, which is located at 11500 Clews Ranch Road in Carmel Valley, was established in 1992, and offers such services as horse boarding, breeding and riding lessons.

different here is the air. It’s heavy. The horses get tired, not so much because of the track but because of the air. A lot of horses will get tired the first time you work them, and that plays into it.” Baffert said he was encouraged by the hiring of Moore, whom he contends is among the best superintendents in the business. Moore was not available for comment early in the week, but Harper said Moore has closely examined the track, digging down to the “sub-base” to find even small inconsistencies. It was Moore who also suggested the extra banking, bringing Del Mar to a 5-degree grade that is the same as Santa Anita’s. The additional work was done at a cost of $250,000, Harper said. “Race track maintenance has changed so much,” said Tom Robbins, a Del Mar executive vice president who oversees racing. “Years ago it was 90 percent art and 10 percent science. Now it’s 60 percent art and 40 percent science. Dennis is one of those guys who embraces the scientific part.” Robbins has his own set of circumstances that have him feeling a little more nervous than usual heading into the meet. It’s his job to fill the eight to 10 races on the card for five days each week, and that became more concerning after Santa Anita had to cancel several days of racing this past meet for lack of entries. Asked if he could envision that happening at Del Mar, Robbins said, “I

would have said no until I saw it happen. It is unsettling. We’re doing our best to sort of calm everybody down, because it affects a lot of people who are employed in our industry.” Harper said, “Our field sizes have been relatively good, even higher than Saratoga’s the last couple of years. We’re all feeling the drop in foal crops across the country. It started when everybody went broke in ’08 and all of a sudden there weren’t horses being bred for a couple of years, so you’re always kind of feeling that.” Robbins said he is encouraged by what appears to be a larger crop of 2-year-olds that could be ready to race in the near future. Del Mar started its “Ship & Win” program seven years ago to encourage owners to bring in horses from outside of California to race. It has been a success, Robbins said, and this summer the bonus has been raised by $500 to $1,500 when an out-of-state horse races for the first time. Those horses also get a 30-percent bonus on whatever they earn in their first start. Harper said he thinks the fact Del Mar is on the clock for the Breeders’ Cup will bring around more owners and trainers, and possibly, horses to race. “I think it’s becoming more than just a curiosity,” Harper said. “Nobody wants to show up at a place they’ve never been before, with a few million bucks worth of horses, and just toss them in there.” — Tod Leonard is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune

the opportunity to be a part of the Del Mar community. It has a lot going for it, its history and its beauty.” So far they are working on an open-kitchen design with a full bar and room for 27 tables, inside and outside. “We haven’t 100 percent branded it yet, but it’ll be similar to our R+D Kitchen concept in Santa Monica and Fashion Island and Dallas — similar to that concept, but with a local twist,” Wallace said. “We’ve talked about some nods to the history of the place, some memorabilia. That’ll be part of the discussion with the current owner. That’s part of her family’s history.” Bully’s owner, Beverly Yuhause-Becker, did not return a call by press-time requesting comment. Lester Holt and George Bullingham opened the original Bully’s in La Jolla in 1967, financed in large part by stud fees

from one of their horses. They opened Bully’s North two years later and a third location in Mission Valley in 1971. Yuhause-Becker, Holt’s daughter, took over the Del Mar and La Jolla locations after Holt’s death in 1995. In 2008, she ruefully shut down the La Jolla location, having fallen on hard times. Wallace said she did not know whether a decision has been made on keeping the Bully’s brand. But after a year of tweaking designs, Hillstone does know that the property will require complete demolition. When Hillstone first looked at the project, they wanted to preserve the original façade onto Camino del Mar, which predates the Bully era. “Unfortunately, after we worked through it with our contractor and our engineers, we aren’t going to be able to save that piece of the building,” Wallace said.

FROM LIFEGUARD, A3 policy prohibits councilmembers from conferring with city employees other than the city manager and city attorney, both of whom are named in Vergne’s complaint. “It’s quite delicate because the only ability we have is to manage the city attorney and the city manager, and the city manager is in charge of all personnel issues within the city,” said Councilman Dave Druker. “It’s frustrating that we’re having such difficulty between two people who are so prominent in this town.” The council held three closed sessions — on July 13, July 17 and July 18 — to find outside counsel to carry out the investigation and handle any potential litigation. Mayor Terry Sinnott and Councilwoman Ellie Haviland will oversee the investigation and update the rest of the council as it progresses. Those updates will not be made public, as the council remains limited by confidentiality rules. “As much as we can disclose, we will disclose,” Druker said.

Takedown’s recent tour] was kind of kind of like a mini-dream come true, because that’s where all the cool bands would play that I could never go see.

“We’re hoping to wrap this up as quickly as possible. We’re hoping it’s not months.” Huth has won glowing praise — as well as raises — from the city council in each of his annual performance reviews since becoming the city’s top administrator in 2012. But at the July 10 hearing, several residents had harsh words for the now-embattled manager. Two dozen Vergne supporters packed into the council’s chambers, perplexed that the dispute wasn’t resolved in a matter of days or weeks, instead of half of the summer, and warning the council that the situation was only going to get worse. Several cited a long-simmering feud between Huth and Vergne. “It is an investigation gone wild,” said Del Mar resident Hershell Price. “Over the years the city manager and Pat Vergne have butted heads at times and there’s no secret that there’s bad blood between them. … I and a great many others in our community believe the investigation is a witch hunt with the desired outcome — and this is important — being the dismissal of our beloved Pat Vergne.”

Huth did not return calls and an email, but did briefly address the issue later that night. “I am encouraged to hear everybody show up on behalf of Pat, and I do think that Pat does have a strong history with the community and providing good service to the community, so it’s encouraging to hear that he has this support. I know he has more support than who showed up today,” he said. Crabtree, a Del Mar resident, was among the wave of voices on July 10 demanding Vergne’s reinstatement. He did not disclose details of the investigation, but urged the city to act now that the investigation has run its course. “I know why Pat was put on administrative leave with pay. Those reasons have now since passed. There is no reason in my mind why Pat Vergne cannot be put back in the tower immediately. The investigation is over. I sat through six hours of Pat’s testimony, the lady who did the investigation is writing that up now. There are no more witnesses for her to hear.” That report is expected by the end of the month.

The cover art for the new album is a painting by your dad, of two fingers holding a white pill. The image resurfaces in one of your videos. What’s the story behind that? Olson: He painted it in 1975, before I was born. It just lived in our house forever. It was 4 feet by 4 feet, this huge painting that I never even questioned. It just always made sense. Then when I was thinking of album art, that popped into my head, and it was like ‘Oh yeah that’s beautiful.’ As far as I know that’s the only painting he has completed. Were your parents musical? What kind of stuff was in their record collections? Olson: They always listened to music a lot. My mom played piano a bit, casually. I definitely grew up on Bob Dylan, The Beatles. Stop Making Sense [by The Talking Heads] was played quite a bit. And Graceland [by Paul Simon]. Those were the albums in heavy rotation growing

up. And because of my mom I listened to a lot of Bonnie Raitt. My brother and I got those records, and I still collect records. The new album has a song called ‘Bad Night at Black’s Beach.’ Care to elaborate? Olson: I was in junior high and my brother was in high school and he was with some friends. This would’ve been just before everyone had cell phones. I was going to meet them down at Black’s Beach, so I was like ‘Oh yeah I’ll grab my Walkman and my backpack, I’ll walk down there on the beach,’ which is kind of far thinking back on it, from 15th Street to Black’s Beach. I finally got down there, exhausted, and there was no sign of my brother or his friends. I remember seeing a fire in the distance, so I walk towards it and as I get closer I can see that there is a guy standing there, he was just standing at the fire with his T-shirt on and nothing else, just fully Porky Pig-style and I was just like ‘What am I doing, where is this night taking me?’ It was this ongoing trek across the sand for hours finding weird things. When I made the song I was trying to conjure the feeling of endlessly walking dunes or sand and then I remembered that night, that’s totally what that was. It’s also a reference to an old western called Bad Day at Black Rock, and it’s also a reference to a Byrd’s song that I like called Bad Night at the Whiskey. I’m a big fan of The Byrds. Chris Hillman, their bassist, went to San Dieguito. Not a lot of people know that. Your music has this if-Kraftwerk-grew-up-on-the-Pacific-Ocean thing going on. Is that what you’re going for? Olson: I don’t think I had that in mind but I think that’s accurate. I’m flattered by that description. That is what it is. I can’t help it, I’m definitely a California person and I’ve always lived on the Pacific Ocean and growing up in Del Mar was a huge part of that. I never surfed or anything but my friends and I would go skateboarding around Del Mar all the time. The parking lot down at 15th Street beach, there was a bump off the sidewalk we used to skate a lot. Del Mar folk did not generally take kindly to us skateboarding around. We used to skate this ledge at L’Auberge and we’d always get in trouble for that. I used to skateboard a lot at the Vons next to where my mom lived. There used to be a video rental store called Video Vault. They had a nice ledge there, by the Jack in the Box. I went to my share of summer concerts at Powerhouse Park. I saw James Brown at the Del Mar Fair. It was right before he died, so getting to see him, that was super rad. And I saw The Flaming Lips there. The Del Mar Fair was surprisingly cool, especially for the fair circuit, they would get really cool bands. It wasn’t like they would have Peter Cetera or something. Actually, they did have him this year. Oh really?! [laughs] I would be stoked to see Peter Cetera now but in high school I would have been like ‘Laaame.’ Right, there’s not exactly anger in your music. I’m not really setting out to make angst-y music. I’ve enjoyed my share of that, but the closest thing now is that sometimes our songs have some metal elements in it. Growing up with the ocean right there, it was kind of paradise. I definitely loved growing up in Del Mar. It was just so pleasant and chill. It afforded me a little Zen to find my creative self.

Life Tributes

Everlasting memories of loved ones

William L. ‘Bill’ Maher, Sr. January 21, 1928 - July 7, 2017

Del Mar — William l. (Bill) Maher, Sr. a prominent figure in the publishing industry for over 40 years, died peacefully on July 7, 2017, in Carlsbad, Ca, in the 89th year of his industrious life. as a young man, Bill served his country in the army at the age of 17 during World War II. after his military service, he enrolled in and graduated from Holy Cross College as part of the Class of 1954. He returned to his native New Jersey after graduation, and eventually found employment in the industry that would become his lifelong calling: publishing. During the 1960’s and early 1970’s he held the position of Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Holt, rinehart & Winston, while holding court at 383 Madison avenue, New

York. During his tenure, he enjoyed the opportunity and challenge of working with and becoming lifelong friends with such illustrious authors as President lyndon B. Johnson and his wife lady Bird, Coretta Scott-King, Dr. Kevin Cahill and the incomparable, Charles M. Schulz. During the mid 1970’s, Bill grew weary of the hectic New York pace and heeded the sage advice of Horace Greeley, a publisher himself and headed west. He settled in los angeles where he formed a new company which at the time was completely unique for the publishing industry. The company would represent numerous publishers in the sales market rather than the industry standard of in-house salespeople. He formulated a sales team and they covered

virtually every state west of the Mississippi including alaska and Hawaii. The company became so successful that during several years it was the highest grossing sales team in the country. Bill retired after 25 years with the company and over 40 years in the publishing industry as a whole. at the time of his retirement he noted the dramatic changes in the publishing industry and succinctly stated, “It’s time to retire, I have seen the future and I’m not part of it.” In retirement, Bill enjoyed traveling the world with his lifelong love, Joann Pitts of Del Mar, Ca, especially to their favorite city in the world, london. When back in Del Mar, Bill enjoyed yoga, and remained an avid reader his entire life. each day three to

four newspapers were consumed along with his beloved New York Times. He was a long-standing member of both the New York athletic Club and the los angeles athletic Club. Bill is survived by his sons, William l. Maher, Jr. of Boston, Ma, Kevin (Jennifer) Maher of Manasquan, NJ; and his two beloved grandchildren, Maggie elizabeth (Craig) Kennedy and Sean Patrick Maher. lastly, he is survived by his life partner, Joann Pitts. Private services will be held. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be forwarded to the Society for the Prevention of alzheimer’s Disease.

Hidden treasure Carmel Valley’s Henry Herz building side career as children’s book author BY KAREN BILLING Carmel Valley children’s book author Henry Herz will launch his fifth traditionally published book, “Cap’n Rex and his Clever Crew” this summer. The fantasy picture book’s official release date is Aug. 1—“Cap’n Rex” can be pre-ordered on Amazon.com and once it sets sail it can be found at barnesandnoble.com as well as in independent bookstores. Following “Cap’n Rex,” published by Sterling Publishing, Herz will have three children’s books released in 2018. Pelican Publishing will print “How the Squid got Two Long Arms”; Schiffer Publishers will release “Good Egg and Bad Apple,” a wordplay book all about food-based puns and idioms; and Familius Publishing will print “Alice’s Magic Garden,” a prequel to “Alice in Wonderland.” Herz is a children’s book author thanks to a “mid-life epiphany”— by trade he is a process improvement engineer. He first got into writing children’s books in 2011 when he self-published the fantasy book “Nimpentoad,” which he wrote with his young sons, Josh and Harrison. “I wrote the first book as way to get my kids into reading fantasy, my favorite genre,” Herz said. “It ended up turning into more.” After he self-published the first book, he

was bit by the writing bug and they self-published three more books together. Going out on his own, he found publishers for his next four books — Pelican Publishing put out “Little Red Cuttlefish,” “When you Give an Imp a Penny” and “Monster Goose Nursery Rhymes.” “Mabel and the Queen of Dreams” was published by Schiffer Publishers. “They’re teenagers now and I’m off and running doing it on my own,” Herz said. “It’s an unpredictable career. I hope to keep honing my craft and be the best writer I can be and keep putting out great work. I like my day job and luckily, I can do both.” Typically authors submit ideas to publishers and then wait for a response — to Sterling, Herz had originally submitted a rhyming picture book about a yeti and some spaghetti. Sterling responded that they really liked the story but had done too many monster books lately. Herz saw an opportunity to pitch his tale about Cap’n Rex, a pirate dinosaur. Herz liked dinosaurs and he liked pirates — he thought putting them together made for the ultimate combination, like peanut butter and chocolate. Sterling agreed and acquired the story. “I snatched victory out of the jaws of defeat,” Herz said. In the book, Rex commands a four-dinosaur crew looking for treasure.

ROXYANNE YOUNG

Local children’s book author Henry Herz COURTESY

Author Henry Herz releases “Cap’n Rex” on Aug. 1. The crew hits many obstacles on their journey, from pea soup fog or giant sharks. Whenever they come across an obstacle, the crew always thinks can’t do it. Cap’n Rex always responds, “Can’t ye?” With a “big, sharp-teeth smile,” he helps his crew come up with a clever way to solve their problem. “It encourages creativity and perseverance in young readers,” Herz said. “When you encounter obstacles, sometimes you see difficulties, but there’s almost always a way around it.” Herz said he is getting used to the book publishing business and learning to be

patient with a process that can be lengthy. Once a story is acquired, the publisher has to find an illustrator, go through the process of illustrating and editing and building a marketing plan. It can sometimes be a two-year process, but Herz said it is always worth the wait. “There is nothing like the feeling of something that you’ve written and worked on for hundreds of hours show up in a hard-bound book,” Herz said. “It’s a great feeling.” Herz has two local book readings and signings scheduled for the coming months. On Saturday, Aug. 19, he will be at Barnes & Noble in Mira Mesa at 11 a.m. and on Sunday, Sept. 10 he will be at Mysterious Galaxy Bookstore at 3:30 p.m. To learn more about “Cap’n Rex,” visit henryherz.com

“Extraordinary Properties” for “Extraordinary Lives”

La Costa Steal NOT IN MLS!

AARON RUMLEY

Katie MacNichol, Sierra Jolene, Paul Turbiak, Bruce Turk and Kyle Colerider-Krugh star in Nagle Jackson’s ‘At This Evening’s Performance,’ at North Coast Repertory Theatre through Aug. 6.

Excellent execution of ‘At This Evening’s Performance’ LET’S REVIEW BY DIANA SAENGER Watching a play within a play can be complicated, but that’s not the case with Nagle Jackson’s “At This Evening’s Performance,” directed by Andrew Barnicle and onstage at the North Coast Repertory Theatre until Aug. 6. When the fun begins in this comedy, a lively cast of seven actors are traveling to Eastern Europe to a country now called Strevia, pronounced by the actors with a spfff. Within set designer Marty Burnett’s two dressing rooms, the actors discuss their new play “At This Evening’s Performance,” talk about themselves and complain about things. The first is that people are not responsive enough to their old classic works being redone, and two, the Minister of Culture in Strevia, formerly named Dunsk, a certain Pankoff (John Nutten). Actor Oskar (Kyle Colerider-Krugh) is the elder cast member who makes comments often filled with humor. Piers (Paul Turbiak) is a young man who has two agendas — one

to romance Saskia (Sierra Jolene) and the other to heap suggestion after suggestion upon his colleagues, who mostly ignore him. Saskia is a lively actress who enjoys risqué moments with Piers and has no fear her husband will find out. Hippolyta Posnik (Katie Macnichol) has a lighthearted role and is also married to Gunther (Bruce Turk), an actor throwing out orders by the minute to the cast that most of them oppose. Returning after many roles at the NCRT is Richard Baird, a terrific actor who excels in every character he portrays. As Valdez, he has authority to warn the actors there is a spy among the cast and someone will get shot! This ups the anxiety and humor. Can the Minister of Culture overcome this horrific announcement? Barnicle does a great job of directing a play that requires just the right simultaneous dialogue and actions to remain an enjoyable farce. Anyone who enjoys the genre — which NCRT does very well — will relish the humor and perfection in the cast’s unveiling. ■ IF YOU GO: “At This Evening’s Performance,” is on stage through Aug. 6 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets from $43. (858) 481-1055. northcoastrep.org

Blackberry Smoke returns to the Belly Up BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY An Atlanta Southern Rock band will bring its country charms to a sold-out Solana Beach show on July 24. Blackberry Smoke, which is touring nationwide in support of its new album "Like An Arrow," will play at the Belly Up for the second time in the band's career. "It's a really cool venue," said lead vocalist and guitarist Charlie Starr. "Like An Arrow," the band's sixth album, debuted at No. 1 on both Billboard's Country Albums and Americana Albums charts, as well as No. 3 on Billboard's Rock Albums chart. Starr, who has been on the road with Blackberry Smoke for a little over a month for this tour, said the group typically plays year-round. There's nothing quite like

returning to the West Coast, though, he said. "We're always happy to see our fans on the West Coast," Starr said. "We don't get to play for them as often." Oftentimes, fans will go to multiple shows on a single tour, he said. For this reason, the band mixes up its set list each night, with a mix of new and old tunes. Starr said he is grateful the fans sing along to the new songs even though the tunes might not be as familiar to them. "We're lucky in that people come to multiple shows and follow us on tour," he said. "What they want to hear is a variety of music. They don't want to hear the same songs over and over again. That makes me happy." For more information about the show, visit www.bellyup.com/blackberry-smoke.

Villa Musica inspires a musical community of all ages BY KAREN BILLING nside an unassuming building in Sorrento Valley, a community of students and teaching artists comes together to experience the joy of making music at Villa Musica. For the last 12 years founder and Artistic Director Dr. Fiona Chatwin has built the nonprofit community music center into a musical home for aspiring musicians of all ages. On any given day, the seven studios will be alive with the sounds of music, from Junior String Ensemble to family folk jams, private piano lessons to Glee Club. Beginner kids come toting instruments that dwarf them and adults who haven’t touched their guitars in 30 years come to get a tune-up. Villa Musica’s flagship group is its Community Chorus, merging the voices of about 40 singers, ages 25 to 80 “and everything in between.” For Chatwin, it all comes back to “community” – offering kids a “third space,” a creative outlet between home and school, giving a cello student the chance to engage with a trumpet player or creating a place to sing and play with extraordinary musicians who now live busy adult lives. Recently, they held their first Chamber Music Club where a group of mostly retired, semi-professional musicians came together and shared what they are working on. “It truly is a music community, taking musicians out of their living rooms playing by themselves and coming to share with others,” Chatwin said. Chatwin is a singer and voice teacher who has worked with artists of all ages and vocal disciplines and has developed college and university level curriculum for everything from music theory to opera. A native of Australia, she finished her doctorate of musical arts at UC San Diego in 2006. Before she graduated, she founded Villa Musica in November of 2005, at first looking to form a Community Chorus for all those people who really wanted to sing but perhaps had no place to do it. “I thought there was a bit of a gap in community arts education in San Diego,” Chatwin said. She became affiliated with the National

Guild for Community Arts Education to learn about best practices and national standards for excellence and partnered with the San Francisco Community Music Center’s executive director, who mentored her as she started Villa Musica from scratch. “When we started we were kind of pioneers,” Chatwin said, noting there was only one community music education center in La Jolla at the time and that one was only for kids. She opened her doors in Sorrento Valley in 2010 after bouncing around from churches and recreation centers and other locations. Chatwin believes it was the perfect trajectory for her organization as she isn’t sure they could have survived the 2008 economic downturn — because they had so little overhead, they did. When she moved into their Sorrento Valley location Chatwin admits “it was kind of scary.” At the time, the organization had 17 private students — now they reach about 500 people through their various private lessons, group lessons, camps and ensembles. Villa Musica also has its own small recital hall and hosts free Friday night student recitals once a month. “By the time we put out the sign-up sheet it’s filled because we can only take 15 performers,” Chatwin said. While they hold a larger recital off-site, the monthly recitals are small and intimate and help students to build confidence in being on stage. “The more they do it, the less scary it is,” said Chatwin, who dreams of one day owning her own building with her own large recital venue. Chatwin still directs the Community Chorus and has a studio of four private voice students. “It’s my sanity time when I’m not working on budgets or grants,” Chatwin said. “My passion is working with young singers and making sure they’re on the right track.” As a result of strong community support, Chatwin believes one of the most important things Villa Musica does is the satellite music instruction to underserved areas in San Diego.

San Diego-based Tribal Seeds to kick off Del Mar Racetrack concert series BY ROB LEDONNE The renowned Del Mar Racetrack concert series has featured the likes of musical legends from Jack Johnson to Weezer. Come July 21, Tribal Seeds joins that esteemed list to kick of the track’s 2017 season. “I’m stoked Tribal Seeds is a part of the series,” said the band’s co-founder and keyboard player Tony-Ray Jacobo, who’s visited the series before - as a spectator. “I’ve personally been a couple of times to see Ziggy Marley and The Offspring.” The Seeds’ plum kickoff performance slot is just the latest coup for the San Diego-based band who released its debut EP in 2005. Founded by Tony-Ray and his brother Steven Rene Jacobo, the band built a successful career based on a unique sound that combines both reggae and rock into one tidy musical package. Along the way, they’ve built an intense following thanks to a bevy of recordings (recent track “Rude Girl” is based on a mean dog, oddly enough) and a busy slate of tour stops, the resulting success of which can be traced back to a pivotal tropical excursion during their humble beginnings. “The first time we went to Hawaii as a band we gave some of our music to a radio station in Maui,” remembers Tony-Ray of the landmark moment in the band’s rise. “Soon after, people were requesting it and it got on rotation. That was big.” Just as important was the fact that established bands soon took a liking them, with acts ranging from Soja to Rebelution early champions. “Slightly Stoopid took us

Tribal Seeds will perform at the Del Mar Racetrack’s Seaside Stage on Friday, July 21. on our first amphitheater tour which was huge,” says Tony-Ray of the fellow famed San Diego act. “They are the big hometown band and we got to open for them on big stages all around the country.” Since then, the members of Tribal Seed have gotten used to the hectic nature of life on the road. “I feel blessed and honored to be able to do this for a living,” said Steven

Rene. “Not a lot of people get to make a living playing and making music. When times get hard out on the road, I just try to remember how blessed I am do be in the situation I’m in.” As of late, the Seeds have plenty to be blessed about, the most notable of which is being awarded Artist of the Year at the recent San Diego Music Awards. (“That

definitely was unexpected for me,” says Tony-Ray. “We were honored to be recognized by our city in that way.”) In addition, the group also has a new album on the horizon, slated for release in 2018. “I think this next album will be more roots (based),” reveals Steven. “At this point in my career, I’m not too concerned with trying to appeal to as many people as possible, I don’t like worrying about trying to get bigger. I just play what I like and I love roots music.” Playing what they love has worked so far as a strategy for the band, translating into chart success. The Tribal Seeds band enjoyed securing the number one slot one the Billboard reggae charts when its 2014 album, Representing, was released – a coup made all the more impressive considering the band is proudly independent, building a monster fan base without the help of a major label machine behind them. “We’ve been independent since day one,” said Steven. “It is definitely nice to have the freedom to make music how we want and when we want and not have the pressure of a label or corporation dictating what we do.” For now, they’re gearing up for their grand Del Mar Racetrack debut. Says Tony-Ray: “It’s a big event that the whole city looks forward to. Gonna be awesome to take that stage.” Tribal Seeds heads to the Del Mar Racetrack’s Seaside Stage on Friday, July 21, with their set tipping off following the last race of the day.

Chill Out

Summer desserts easy on your scale

e can have our cake and eat it, too, if we choose lighter desserts (less sugar and fat), and forego the traditional summer lollapaloozas — ice cream sundae extravaganzas, salted caramel brownies, and triple-decker cakes and trifles. While the concept of healthy desserts sounds oxymoronic, this can be accomplished with a serious behavioral commitment and creative culinary spirit. Here are some suggestions for concocting guiltless pleasures throughout the summer months and beyond.

Dangle a Carrot

Choose hearty, vitamin, mineral and fiber rich vegetables and vegetarian proteins as the cornerstone of a nutritious dessert. A variety of naturally sweet tubers, roots, squashes, legumes and beans including yams, purple and sweet potatoes, carrots, parsnips, celeriac (celery root), acorn squash, chickpeas, black beans and lentils can be pureed and blended with antioxidant-packed super dark chocolate (cocoa content over 60 percent), a drizzle of honey for less sweet

choices, and low fat coconut, almond or rice-based cream for a divine mousse. Even more divine with a splash of liqueur (a little dab won’t harm you). Amaretto and Frangelico for nutty nuances, Kahlua for an intense coffee flavor, Grand Marnier for citrus notes or Crème de Menthe for a refreshing zing of mint. Whip up a moist, sweet and spicy honey root cake with shredded carrots and parsnips, topped with a light and creamy mascarpone spread, bittersweet ruby red beet brownies, or an airy black bean and espresso or avocado chocolate soufflé.

Sew Some Wild Oats

Crusts, cobblers, cakes, cookies and biscotti will be nuttier, more nutrientpacked and flavorful when all-purpose flour is substituted for low-carb baking options from the nut family (almond, chestnut, pecan, cashew, pistachio and hazelnut flours), ancient and traditional grains (buckwheat, millet, teff, kamut, brown rice, spelt, sorghum and amaranth flours), seeds (quinoa, flax, sunflower and chia flours) along with coffee, banana,

Rich, fatty moo ice creams can be easily swapped out for lighter, lactose-free, non-dairy frozen treats without feeling a bit deprived. Soy, cashew, rice, coconut, hemp and almond-based creamy delights taste decadent by themselves, or dressed up with a sophisticated balsamic glazed strawberry or raspberry topping with a pinch of fresh basil, thyme or rosemary for a Mediterranean twist.

A Plum Idea

This season’s bounty of luscious, aromatic and nutrient-dense stone fruits from peaches, nectarines and apricots to plums, pluots and cherries take on a rich, caramelized essence when grilled, a sassy tartness when blended with Meyer lemon zest and stewed into a compote, or an elegant silkiness when pureed and strained into an eye-popping coulis to drizzle on frozen treats of all manners. Apricots and cherries pair well in a bubbling cobbler, peaches and nectarines are good grill mates drizzled with a blend of maple syrup, fresh ginger and Himalayan pink salt, then sprinkled with caramelized nuts (recipe below), or whip up a quick and dirty sorbet with frozen slices of assorted stone fruits. For a tropical treat, toss some fresh pineapple spears or bananas on the barbecue, and then dress with hazelnut chocolate sauce and scoops of vanilla bean coconut ice cream.

Grilled Maple Ginger Nectarines ■ Ingredients: 2 ripe but-firm-large nectarines, halved and pitted; 2 tablespoons of organic dark maple syrup; 1/4 teaspoon of ginger powder or ½ inch piece of shredded fresh ginger; Pink Himalayan sea salt to taste; 2 tablespoons of roasted or caramelized hazelnuts, walnuts or pecans; 4 scoops of non-dairy frozen ‘ice cream’ ■ Method: In a small mixing bowl, blend syrup with ginger and salt. Drizzle on nectarines. Brush grill with olive oil and cook nectarines on medium heat for about 8 minutes, or until caramelized and tender. Or bake on a cookie sheet at 425 degrees for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with nuts and serve warm with frozen treat. — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Summer Legs and Beyond: Exercising with Varicose Veins It’s summer, there are record temperatures, and you want to be in shape for all those warm-weather clothes. But if you also suffer from varicose veins, not all exercises will be beneﬁcial to ﬁtness and your venous health. The problem with varicose veins When you see varicose veins, the big purplish ropes under the skin, that is blood buildup in veins due to weak venous valves. Varicose veins usually appear in the legs because the veins have to work harder to pump the blood from the feet back up to the heart. The heart, then, has to work harder to pump that blood through the weaker veins. Sometimes, high blood pressure can

develop or be exacerbated by varicose veins. Why not all workouts are ideal for people with varicose veins The general rule of thumb is that exercise is a good way to improve venous health. So while varicose veins are mostly the result of genetics, keeping up proper blood ﬂow will help the appearance of the varicose veins and improve your overall vascular health.The key is to use exercise to improve circulation, especially throughout the legs. There is even a chance that moderate exercise may reduce the chances of forming new varicose veins or worsening the already weakened veins.The veins in the calf muscle are especially useful in pumping blood back into the heart, so exercises that strengthen the calf muscles should be a part of your workout plan. Riding a bike, especially a stationary bike, is particularly effective. Walk, don’t run Walking stimulates circulation and burns plenty of calories, and the same applies for low-impact jogging. However, a

high-impact run or workout can actually increase the swelling of the veins and add stress to your joints. If you are a runner, consider moving your workout to a soft surface and wearing compression stockings to stimulate blood ﬂow. That gut feeling Blood ﬂowing back up the leg veins to the heart passes through the vena cava in the abdomen. Increasing the abdominal pressure by such activities as heavy lifting or straining impedes blood from traveling back to the heart. That’s when venous blood pools in the leg veins, causing the unsightly—and sometimes harmful—spider and varicose veins. So weightlifting and lots of sit-ups can do more harm than good for varicose vein sufferers. However, if weightlifting is an important part of your workout regimen, consider less weight with more reps, and avoid putting too much strain on your abdomen. The same is true for strenuous yoga; some poses can put extra pressure on the vena cava, impeding rather than improving circulation. Low-impact

Look to these local authorities for professional guidance on daily living at www.lajollalight.com/our-columns/

yoga that involves smooth transitions and lots of stretching is a better plan. Remember, you should stop immediately any exercise that causes leg pain or even discomfort. Exercises is about doing good, not harm, and there can be too much of a good thing, especially when your vascular health has been compromised by varicose veins. There is no prevention for varicose veins, and no failproof cure. But a healthy, lowimpact, cardiovascular-boosting routine is a great ally for healthy legs. And while varicose veins are common enough and may not always be life-threatening, a good solution to accompany exercise is removing those varicose veins with sclerotherapy, which can be done in just a short ofﬁce visit. If working out has given you symptomatic vein disease, and if you’re tired of your varicose veins and are ready for treatment or just want some more information on sclerotherapy, contact us at 760-944-9263 or visit our website.

Local teenage rock band to perform at Olympian Tony Azevedo’s Aquatic Games The Elements are set to rock the inaugural Aquatic Games Aug. 3 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. at Cabrillo High School in Long Beach.

The Elements will perform their recently debuted original songs, “Lighthouse” and “Mr. Postman,” as well as cover songs from bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fitz and the Tantrums, Cage the Elephant, and Talking Heads. A North County-based San Diego teenage rock band, The Elements will be diving into new waters as they perform outside of their hometown for the first time at “The Aquatic Games.” They are looking forward to this new experience and are grateful to be involved with an event created by Tony Azevedo who is regarded as one of the world’s best water polo players. “It’s so awesome to be playing at such an amazing new event Tony has created for younger players to get a higher level of experience”, said The Elements drummer/guitarist and water polo goalie Dylan Herrera. “ I attended one of Tony’s winter clinics with some of my school teammates. It was fun, and we learned how to improve our playing, learned about nutrition, met Olympians, and Tony told us stories on how he started playing water polo. It was especially cool to work with Olympian goalie Merrill Moses. We are so honored and excited to be playing at Tony’s Aquatic Games.” The Elements attend San Dieguito High School Academy in Encinitas where they have performed on campus and are involved in school sports. The Aquatic Games is a perfect fit for the band, as Herrera is a member of the SDA Boys Water Polo Team, and Julian Boyer, vocalist, bassist and keyboardist,

Bring lawn chairs and blankets to the free SummerFest concert and screening of ‘La La Land,’ Aug. 2 in Scripps Park.

‘La La Land’ to screen after SummerFest kick-off concert, Aug. 2 in Scripps Park BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON As the lyrics to “A Lovely Night” from the 2016 hit film “La La Land” goes, “The sun is nearly gone. The lights are turning on. A silver shine that stretches to the sea … We've stumbled on a view. That's tailor-made for two. What a shame those two are you and me.” (Those who have seen the film know the last line references a coy game of hard-to-get between Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling.) When the sun is nearly gone, at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 2, a silver screen will stretch to the sea at Scripps Park, when the La Jolla Music Society’s free SummerFest Outdoor Concert kicks off its 31st annual SummerFest chamber music series, which runs through Aug. 25 at venues such as UC San Diego Department of Music’s Conrad Prebys

FROM MUSIC, B6 students for free. Through conversations with the patrons they offer what the community needs most — at Logan Heights they have three levels of violin, two levels of guitar and starting a rock band class in the fall. At Valencia Park, they have violin and guitar classes as well as a chorus. At a time when arts programs are being slashed at schools across the country, Villa Musica also offers music education at 14 schools such as Our Lady of Guadalupe, King Chavez Elementary and the Ronald McDonald House School. “We’re bringing music into schools that would not have music otherwise,” Chatwin said. They work with school PTAs and foundations to enhance what the district is able to offer or fill in what is lacking with after-school programming. A significant percentage of students at Villa Musica also receive financial aid. “Everything is needs-based, there are no scholarships based on merit,” Chatwin said. The stories she hears touch Chatwin’s heart — she never

wants a student to have to stop music due to a parent’s job loss or other financial struggles. She recalls one story of a Syrian immigrant family whose daughter was a cello player. Her cello had been damaged and they had hoped Villa Musica could help with lessons. Villa Musica was able to provide a cello and lessons for the student. “It put normalcy back in her life,” Chatwin said. The student went on to play cello in the orchestra at UC Berkeley. “I love being able to provide support and to be able to offer access to quality music education and access to excellence,” Chatwin said. “Access is the most important part.” Villa Musica is offering a free Summer Concert Series to showcase its Summer Orchestra on Saturday, July 29 from 1-4 p.m. at the San Diego Central Library, 330 Park Boulevard. On Sept. 10, Villa Musica will hold an open house from 1-4 p.m. offering potential new students the opportunity to come try out an instrument with free 15-minute private lessons. To learn more, visit villamusica.org. Villa Musica is located at 10373 Roselle Street.
