The Mission Beach Town Council plans to raise an estimated $1,000 to supply police officers with two sound meters to enforce the city’s noise laws in the neighborhoods. Mission Beach Town Council representative Dieter Wirtzfeld said passing motorcycles and other sources of noise make “the windows rattle.” “Our only interest at this stage is the noise level associated with loud vehicles,” Wirtzfeld said. “You
can’t hear yourself think.” The Mission Beach Town Council has already committed approximately $650 for the meters and equipment. The council needs to raise another $300, Wirtzfeld said. The Pacific Beach Town Council also drafted a letter in support of the Mission Beach Town Council donation. Northern Division Police Capt. Shelly Zimmerman welcomes the decibel meters as another resource to help with other noise-related complaints. “This is something the commu-
nity wanted,” Zimmerman said. “We could also use the meters for noise-related complaints like [house] party calls and other… complaints.” City fines on noisy neighbors range from $250 to $2,500 per violation. Repeated complaints about disturbingly loud house parties could result in a $1,000 fine. Police can take a “zero-tolerance” policy for subsequent violations from a house party.

The mayor’s proposal suggests bridging the other half of the $60 million deficit, in part, by dipping into about $17 million worth of hotel room tax reserves as a “onetime” source of funds to help pay for a new fire-alert system, community development plan updates and unfinished projects slated for completion in the 2010 fiscal year. City Council, however, will have to approve the use of tourism tax dollars for ongoing operations. The city also has about $500 million to $700 million in deferred maintenance and capital projects. City officials blame the budget gap on dwindling sales and tourism-tax revenue the last few years, according to Chief Financial Officer Mary Lewis. Lewis added, however, that unfunded pension obligations could leave the city accountable for an estimated $200 million payment in fiscal year 2011. That alone would “unbalance us,” she said, creating a larger deficit in 2011. Unfunded pension liability is estimated at about $1.3 billion, to be paid over the next 19 years, Lewis said. An unfunded retiree healthcare deficit looms at about $1.25 billion.

Everyone knows cigarettes are bad for your health. But people seem less aware or less remorseful about scarring the environment with their left-over, tar-stained filters. Those tiny butts add up and get swept along with other debris into streams and watersheds and eventually make their way to the ocean. “The cigarette butts continue to be an extremely pervasive litter problem, and people do not know how big an impact they can have,” said I Love A Clean San Diego (ILACSD) outreach director Morgan Justice-Black. Justice-Black is hoping for a volunteer force 5,000 strong that will band together and blanket the entire county in the seventh annual Creek to Bay Cleanup that takes place April 25 from 9 a.m. to noon. She also hopes that the message of loving a clean San Diego will spread through the volunteers and community members alike to cause a snowball effect in fighting pollution. “To me pollution knows no boundaries, which is why we cover such a huge area. We have cleanup sites from Oceanside to San Ysidro, from Mission Beach and as far east as El Cajon,” Justice-Black said.
There are approximately 60 cleanup sites throughout those regions, and the event this year is poised to crack the 1 million pound mark of debris picked up and properly disposed.

Boone and another man fled in a black truck, but witnesses were able to get a partial license plate number. Boone was later identified as the gunman, and detectives learned that he is in the Navy and stationed aboard the USS Nimitz. San Diego police officers arrested Boone on Dec. 17 when the USS Nimitz returned to North Island. Boone pled guilty just one day before his preliminary hearing. Sentencing was set for May 7 by San Diego Superior Court Judge Michael Smyth. Boone remains in county jail on $1 million bail.

Though Berkley used to make and sell jewelry for a living several years ago, it’s since become more of a hobby, she said. “This is a means to give back,” Berkley said, “It’s one way I can be involved in supporting my daughter’s education.” Yungman acquired the store after working as a picture framer for the former owners for five years. Though the gallery opened in Ocean Beach, it has called Pacific Beach home for about the last 34 years. “People seem to really be enjoying [the gallery], being that it’s all local artists,” Yungman said.

Now & Then John Fry I EXPECT THAT since my last column there’s at least one person who has moved to Pacific Beach and opened an account at Chase Bank, on the northeast corner of Cass and Garnet. For all they know, it’s been there forever. Depending on how long you’ve been at the beach, you can count backward and recall other businesses that have occupied the spot. On May 11, 1920 “the new paved highway to La Jolla” opened along with – I assume – the Pacific Beach Service Station on the corner where the highway turned north. A service station remained on the corner until the late 1950s, when Home Federal Savings opened the two-story brick structure familiar to most of us now. I’m hazy on the dates, but it may have been the 1970s when Home Federal Savings became HomeFed Bank. Around 1985 it was taken over by Great Western Bank. Washington Mutual was the next tenant and – last month – Chase Bank. DOWN UNDER PLUMBING, advertised on the side of a truck I saw in the College Area, might well belong to an Aussie, but I couldn’t

Let me first say I’m proud to serve as your city councilmember. I am passionate about protecting the environment, and in District 2 that starts with Mission Bay, San Diego Bay and our beaches. Within the last year, we’ve made important strides, including: Lease money generated in Mission Bay Park will now stay there and be invested at other local parks, thanks to the ballot measure voters passed in November. Our beaches and bays are alcohol-free and family-friendly, thanks to another ballot measure voters supported in November. The handrails on the boardwalk in Mission Beach were replaced, and the city is installing new outdoor showers. In Pacific Beach, we had new lighting installed at the Tot Lot in Kate Sessions Park, and I strongly supported a measure that forces Beach Area Community Court participants to cover a share of the costs. As the former volunteer chairman of the Mission Bay Park Committee, I can’t tell you how happy I am with the

help wondering if it was some sort of a mobile OB/GYN service. IT’S HARD TO KNOW who’s more excited about the monthly backyard movies at the Gerber residence on Diamond Street: the toddlers leaping out of the SUVs or the parents speeding away from the curb for a night on their own. Things went terribly wrong at the most recent screening. Someone forgot that Daylight Savings Time was going to keep darkness from arriving until around 7:30 p.m. Someone else didn’t know that “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” runs a full three hours. I’ll let you do the math. I understand that the event unraveled during intermission and many parents carried sleeping youngsters to the waiting family car. JILLIAN WILDING (that would be Doc and Mary’s granddaughter) was sitting in class at Cathedral Catholic when an office monitor dropped a detention notice on her desk. “Swearing!! Insubordination!! No way!! It had to be another person!!” Jillian did what any normal teenage girl would do; she sent her Mom a frantic text message. The teacher then confiscated her cell phone. Turned out the detention notice was delivered to the wrong person, but Jillian still had to stay after school for using her phone during class.

Woman reports assault in Crown Point A woman fought off an attacker after he allegedly attempted to sexually assault her on Saturday, March 28 at approximately 10:30 p.m. Police believe the assault occurred in the general area of Crown Point in Pacific Beach. Police said the woman called and reported the incident from a coffee shop in Crown Point the following morning. The male attacker, wearing dark clothing, reportedly came up from behind the woman, grabbed her and hit her on the head with an object before assaulting her, said Mònica Muñoz, spokeswoman for the San Diego Police Department. Police said the woman fought him off. The incident is currently under investigation, according to San Diego Police Lt. Rick O’Hanlon.
Town Hall meeting to discuss school cuts Anyone who cares about the schools is invited to meet with SDUSD board member John de Beck to discuss recent district budget cuts at a meeting on Monday, April 27. “I strongly encourage you to attend this local opportunity and let board members know our opposition to a part-time principal,” said Friends of Pacific Beach Elementary President Dawna Deatrick. Board trustees voted to end busing to magnet schools and plan to consolidate one principal for every two schools that have fewer than 400 students. The April 27 meeting will take place at 5:30 p.m. at Bird Rock Elementary School, 5371 La Jolla Hermosa Ave.
[ OBITUARY 7 ] S. Mission Beach “Cowboy” dies Herbert Duane Palmer passed away at his home in South Mission Beach surrounded by family on March 30 after a year-long bout with cancer. Herbert was born on June 8, 1933 to Herbert and Margaret (Wedlock) Palmer in Thermopolis, WY. In November 1952, at age 19, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy, served in the Korean War and was honorably discharged. Herb settled in San Diego and attended Cosmetology College. In 1956 he married Melba Zimmerman. They lived in Pacific Beach where Herb started Herb’s House of Beauty. They had a daughter, Libbi Lavon, and a son, Herbert Shanon. They later divorced. Herb moved to South Mission Beach in 1967, where he lived most of his life. He moved his salon to San Fernando Place and soon after hired Marilyn Pagliuso, the sister-in-law of one of his clients. They married on December 26, 1968 and were together until her death on Christmas 2007, just one day shy of their
40th anniversary. In 1976 they opened a second salon on Salem Court, renaming the two Herb and Marilyn’s Hairmagination. The salons are among the oldest businesses in Mission Beach still run by family members. Herb loved life at the beach, where he made many neighborhood friends over 40 years. Herb led an adventurous life. He grew up fishing and hunting in Wyoming. When he moved to California, Herb began boat and dune buggy racing, water and snow skiing and parachuting. He camped with the family, and rode his bike down the beach up until his final few days. Herb was an active Old Mission Beach Athletic Club (OMBAC) member for over 40 years, sponsoring annual horseshoe tournaments during the ’80s. Most often seen in shorts, sandals, a Beachcomber shirt and Pennant vest, Herb was a permanent fixture known by many in the beach area as “Cowboy.” Herb enjoyed spending time
with his friends, family, and especially his grandchildren. He is survived by daughter Libbi Plonka; sons Shanon Palmer and John Pagliuso; daughter in-law Beth Pagliuso; son in-law Tom Plonka; grandchildren Lauren Palmer, Manteca, Calif.; Delaney, Mitchell, and Grace Pagliuso, San Diego, Calif.; sisters Margie Allen and Linda Halbert, Gold Canyon, Ariz.; brother-in-law Steve Runfola, Brighton, Colo.; and many loving nieces and nephews. A celebration of life will be held on Sunday, April 26 from 1 to 5 p.m. at the ZLAC Rowing Club in Pacific Beach at 1111 Pacific

Dr. Sunstein moves his La Jolla Office During my 13 years of college I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology at SDSU, then I received my Doctor of Dental Surgery from UCLA, and Advanced Degree’s in General and Esthetic dentistry. I did my residency in New York City at Columbia University for Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics. I came back to join my family and live my dream practicing Orthodontics in La Jolla after my residency.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, “Children are at a greater risk for some pesticides for a number of reasons. Children’s internal organs are still developing and maturing and their enzymatic, metabolic, and immune systems may provide less natural protection than those of an adult. There are ‘critical periods’ in human development

when exposure to a toxin can permanently alter the way an individual’s biological system operates. Children may be exposed more to certain pesticides because often they eat different foods than adults.” As washing, scrubbing and peeling produce will not remove all pesticide residues, the best way to protect yourself and your family from these
I have been practicing Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics here in La Jolla in my second decade of making smiles. We just recently moved from our Herschel address to 7575 Eads Ave., where our new state of the art facility has been built in the Montrachet building one block north of Pearl. There is easy access and plenty of parking. I love making beautiful smiles every day, I truly enjoy what I do! If you would like to come by and see for yourself or for a free consultation you can meet my wonderful staff and myself. Some of whom have been with me since I started here in the “Jewel by the Sea.” We are one big happy family. We look forward to making many more beautiful smiles in the years to come!

Cold Melon Salsa from People’s Co-op We’ve all had tomato or even mango salsa at a restaurant or party, but here is a salsa recipe with an unusual combination of ingredients. It takes the best of the season and can be used in just about any course from the appetizer to dessert. It’s great as a dip with crispy baked tofu, added to mesclun salad, or as a topping to vanilla ice cream. The recipe serves 8 and is easily made in 20 minutes. It’s great to make it the day before to allow the 4 hour chilling time and for the flavors to meld together. 3 ripe, firm tomatoes, ½ honeydew melon 1 cantaloupe 1 cup red onion ½ jalapeno pepper ½ cup fresh cilantro ½ cup almonds 3 T. fresh orange juice ¼ t. salt 2 T. fresh lime juice Finely dice tomatoes, (for a smoother texture you can remove the seeds), peeled honeydew melon, and peeled cantaloupe. Put into a large serving bowl. Mince red onion and jalapeno pepper (you can add more chilies if you like a little more heat). Add to the bowl. Finely chop fresh cilantro and almonds, add to the bowl and stir with the other ingredients. Stir in orange juice, salt and lime juice. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours and serve topped with a few cilantro leaves.

Rose Creek Cottage A lasting treasure of Pacific Beach, the Rose Creek Cottage has been hosting weddings and events for nearly 90 years. Built in the 1920s as a dining room addition to Fredrick Tudor Scripps’ estate house. Now the Catamaran Hotel, in 1955, the property was sold to Vernon Taylor and Clinton McKinnon for a hotel. The old home was razed in 1959. The dining room was spared and became the Catamaran Wedding Chapel. Three decades later, the chapel stood in the way of proposed expansion. An agreement was secured with the Navy to lease a patch of land at the bottom of Garnet near Rose Creek, where it sits today. The "Cottage" is beginning to host third generation weddings for locals and, thanks to the Internet, is planning events for people from all over the world. Mark & Maggie Johnston of Wedding & Event Designers manage the Rose Creek Cottage for the Pacific Beach Town Council. They help people arrange for everything they will need for an elegant yet affordable event. The Cottage can accommodate up to 75 guests. Mark & Maggie can arrange for full service catering, cake, flowers, photography, limo, music, officiant…everything but the groom!

San Diego’s First Female Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Hollan is recognized for her technical ability, communication, skills, creativity, compassion and commitment to patient satisfaction. Dr. Hollan sees the world of plastic surgery as both playful and profound, always touching something in a person’s core. “Even when I think a change I have caused is minor, it turns out never to be trivial.” She explains: “Plastic surgery makes people feel better about themselves by removing the distractions that get in the way of their experiencing their own beauty. Many patients struggle with the question of ‘vanity’. They wonder why it matters so much. Appreciation of beauty and the quest for it in our lives is uniquely and universally human. It nourishes us.” Specialties include eyelid surgery, brow lift, face lift, mid-face lift, rhinoplasty, liposuction, abdominoplasty, and breast procedures including reconstruction. She also offers “no down-time” procedures such as lasers, BOTOX and injectable fillers. “I care most about my patients’ well being, and about offering superb procedures that solve problems and empower by revealing beauty and self-confidence.

The Nards April 18, 9:30 p.m. Tiki House, 1152 Garnet Ave. From Motown to The Replacements, the fine bar band, “The Nards,” will play a little something for everyone at the Tiki House on April 18. The key is frontman Rick Wilkins, a superb guitarist who normally backs country singer Sara Petite. It’s with The Nards, however, that Wilkins really lets loose with both manic performances and dry wit.

Fans of classic-sounding New Wave and power-pop will want to check out a live performance of The Shake Ups. Based around the husband and wife team of Patrick and Kathie O’Connor, transplants from Indianapolis, the group excels at catchy tunes that seamlessly cross influences like Elvis Costello and The Cars. The Shake Ups have released two albums to date, but the music’s full impact is best experienced live in local clubs, where their time-warped tunes can get the adrenaline running.
