esidents are being asked to sign a petition on Ocean Beach’s Neighborhood Watch Facebook page to take action to “help to keep our sidewalks clean ensuring a healthier environment for everyone.” “One complaint that is often heard about the downtown area of Ocean Beach is how dirty, stained, and smelly the sidewalks are,” the online petition reads. “The OB Clean & Safe Program, a project of the Ocean Beach MainStreet Association, is looking to change that by applying for funding to provide bi-monthly cleanings of Newport Avenue sidewalks, in addition to installing additional trash bins along the street.

Peninsula planners discuss impacts of airport’s plans By Dave Schwab | The Beacon

I n Febr ua r y, Pen i n s u la Community Planning Board vetted the environmental impacts of San Diego International Airport’s Terminal 1 expansion, as well as discussing the creation of a standing environmental subcommittee to act as the liaison between the advisory group and local schools. PCPB board member Fred Kosmo, who represents PCPB on an airport committee, updated the group on the airport’s plans. He said Terminal 1’s expansion “will lead to 38% more flights over Point Loma and environs in the next five years, adding to a significant amount of increased noise and pollution negatively impacting the quality of people’s lives and their health.” Kosmo noted a lawsuit has been filed by an ad hoc group of community activists, known as Quiet Skies San Diego, challenging the adequacy of environmental documents out for a public review on the airport’s planned terminal expansion. Board members Mandy Havlik and Eva Schmitt introduced three environmental-related issues. Havlik was successful in asking the group to approve a letter of support for a tree-planting initiative in the Peninsula.

Havlik also read a proposed letter of support by the group into the record, which discussed how shade provided by trees, especially tall ones, helps keep temperatures down in urban landscapes largely denuded of trees. “I’m in total support of being proactive in bringing more trees to our community,” concurred board member Margaret Virissimo. Schmitt recommended the advisory group establish a standing environmental subcommittee, in addition to allowing such a newly created body to act as liaison with Point Loma High School’s Green Peace Club. She contended that was necessary to acquaint students with the planning group and give students their voice in it. Kosmo, noting that the airport Terminal 1 expansion environmental impact report is “hundreds of pages long,” half-jokingly pointed out that might be a good place for a future PCPB environmental subcommittee to start work. Noting the prospect of establishing a liaison between PCPB and PLHS was “a good idea,” board member David Dick nonetheless added he could not backlinking the planning group with the high school’s Green Peace Club, which he characterized as a “political

activist organization.” “We should make the direction we give to an environmental subcommittee more robust and general, providing the environmental committee as a point of contact with the planning group,” said Dick. Planner Scott Deschenes objected to the original proposal that PLHS be singled out exclusively noting, “There are lots of other schools, including private schools, in the area.” Regarding a liaison between PCPB and students, board member Robert Tripp Jackson cautioned that “you need to make sure students are reciprocating.”

NEWS Circulate San Diego working to increase safety for pedestrians, bicyclists at Point Loma intersections By Dave Schwab | The Beacon

NEW LISTING IN FLEETRIDGE! 1141 ALBION ST. | GORGEOUS SINGLE-LEVEL! 4BR X 2BA | 2147 SQUARE FEET | $1,495,000

Circulate San Diego recently released 2019 collision data showing 44 people traveling by foot, bicycle, motorcycle or vehicle died last year within the San Diego City limits. That was 14 fewer fatalities than the year before in 2018. However, 2019 still had more fatalities than two years prior in 2017, which shows Vision Zero’s goal of entirely eliminating all traffic fatalities remains a long way off. Circulate San Diego is a regional grassroots organization dedicated to advancing mobility and making the region a better place to live, work, learn and play. Vision Zero is a data-driven approach to eliminate traffic fatalities and severe injuries on roadways by increasing safe, healthy, and equitable mobility. Vision Zero’s focus includes reducing speed limits, redesigning streets to make them more accessible and raising awareness of unsafe activities. "No one should have to risk losing their life while walking, bicycling, or driving," said Maya Rosas, policy director for Circulate San Diego. “To save lives and prevent collisions, the City must continue to prioritize funding for Vision Zero.” Half of the 2019 fatalities were pedestrians, according to collision data compiled by Circulate San Diego from data released monthly to the City’s new Mobility Board. The 22 pedestrian fatalities are a reduction from 34 in 2018. However, that is still more than the 17 pedestrians killed in 2017. Also, five bicyclists died in 2019, after two years in a row with zero bicyclist fatalities in the City. On Circulate’s 2018 list of the 15 most problematic intersections, a total of seven — Mission Boulevard and Felspar, and Olney Street and Grand Avenue in PB, Pearl Street and Fay Avenue in La Jolla, W. Point Loma Boulevard and Rue Dorleans in Midway and14th Street and Broadway, University Avenue and 32nd Street and Market Street and 30th Street in Uptown/Downtown — are in areas covered by San Diego Community Newspaper

Maya Rosas, policy director for Circulate San Diego.

Group. “These were the most dangerous intersections for which we were asking for improvements in 2018,” said Rojas. “I don't have recently compiled intersection data with those most dangerous intersections. We didn't come up with a new list in 2019 because the mayor committed to fixing 300 intersections.” A full list of 2019 serious injury and fatalities data is available online. Of the 200-plus collisions at problematic intersections that occurred citywide last year, more than 20 were in the Peninsula, known for its limited access and growing gridlock. Point Lomans reacted to the recent collision data. Amy Stark, assistant manager at The Orchard Apartments at 4040 Hancock St., pinpointed several troublesome traffic spots in her Midway neighborhood including: Sports Arena/Midway/West Point Loma Boulevard corner; The bike lane on Sports Arena; and West Point Loma Boulevard heading to/from OB (new bike lanes and loss of car lane). Stark characterized Sports Arena/Midway/West Point Loma Boulevard as “dangerous,” noting The Orchard seniors have been hit several times there in the last few years. “It is especially treacherous for mobility devices because riders sit low to the ground and are harder to see,” said Stark. Stark argued new bike lanes on West Point Loma Boulevard to and

from OB is also a safety issue. “With the new bike lane and loss of a driving lane, bikes come in and out between parked cars, which seems dangerous,” she said. “The whole stretch seems poorly designed and will bottleneck even more on summer weekends (beach traffic) and rush hour on weekdays.” Of the bike-lane issue raised, Rosas of Circulate San Diego said, “There is no data that I am aware of that shows any negative safety or traffic impact of adding bike lanes. … In Downtown, the newly installed protected bike lanes don't seem to have any impact on traffic or safety, besides making it more comfortable for bicyclists and scooter riders to ride.” Concerning the introduction of bike lanes on W. Point Loma Boulevard, lifelong Point Loman Robert Tripp Jackson noted, “There has been a ‘learning curve’ on the changes set forth. This may create confusion when a pedestrian, bike rider or one in a car needs to determine how to share, navigate or become familiar with the new lanes.” Point Loman Don Sevrens praised Peninsula Community Planning Board member Brad Herrin for “doing a great job of identifying unsafe intersections and forwarding them to the city for study or corrective action. That’s a great start.” But, added Sevrens, “What is missing is even token enforcement. … Speed limits or parking limits, without any enforcement, are meaningless.” Moving forward, Rosas said funding is the top priority to achieve the changes needed to make Vision Zero’s goal of eliminating traffic fatalities a reality. “We urge the mayor to increase funding for life-saving Vision Zero projects in the upcoming proposed budget,” said Rosas. “No loss of life on San Diego streets is acceptable and we can prevent traffic fatalities by funding more safe streets projects, improving bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure during routine resurfacing projects, and educating San Diegans to choose to be safe when getting around San Diego.”

Peter Bentz skull found, says prosecutor at sentencing By Neal Putnam | The Beacon

An electrician who was convicted of killing Peter Bentz was sentenced Feb. 26 to 83 years and eight months in prison and it was revealed the Ocean Beach man’s skull has been recovered. Brian Eleron Hancock, 49, said nothing before San Diego Superior Court Judge Joan Weber imposed 25 years to life for the 2017 slaying of Peter Bentz, 68. “Rarely has this court seen a more diabolical crime,” said Weber. Weber added 25 years for Hancock’s arson conviction when he burned up his brother-in-law’s trailer in 1999. He got another 25 years for a 2003 residential

burglary plus eight years and eight months for transportation of methamphetmine and another burglary. Deputy District Attorney Jeffrey Dort revealed in court that a biologist discovered the skull of Bentz in Campo in 2018, but it was not until last month that dental records confirmed it was his skull. Weber excluded mention of the skull to the jury because the trial had already started to ensure fairness to Hancock, said his attorney, Jimmy Rodriguez, who had already told jurors that Bentz may be alive and in Mexico. Weber had issued a gag order upon the attorneys and victim’s survivors about the existence of the skull, but the gag order was lifted

Wednesday at his sentencing. Dort said the skull was found 500 feet from where a hatchet was discovered in Campo from previous law enforcement searches that included a cadiver dog. Dort said the skull was buried, but apparently dug up by coyotes. No other body parts were found. Initially, investigators thought the skull was of a Hispanic male who was 30 to 50 years old, said Dort, but it was with the comparison of Bentz’s dental records that confirmed it was his. Hancock’s phone was in the Campo area for 4 ½ hours on Nov. 24, 2017, according to cell phone records cited by Dort. Bentz was last seen alive on Nov. 21, 2017,

Murder trial of Point Loma Navy man continues by Neal Putnam | The Beacon

The murder trial of a Point Loma man began Feb. 21 with the prosecutor showing a knife to the jury that she said had his DNA along with his wife's DNA after her body was found in the bay. The trial for Matthew Scott Sullivan, 35, an ex-sailor, continued this week before a jury and San Diego Superior Court Judge Albert Harutunian III. Sullivan is accused of killing his wife Elizabeth Sullivan, 32, who disappeared in 2014, but her body was found in 2016 and not far from where the couple lived in 2016. The decomposed body was found on the day that Matthew Sullivan moved across the country to Maryland, said Deputy District Attorney Jill Lindberg. She showed the jury the knife, which was displayed in a glass evidence case, that investigators found in the attic after he moved away. Sullivan's attorney, Marcus DeBose, told jurors Elizabeth Sullivan had a habit of self-mutilating herself and her husband discovered she had broken a mirror and stabbed herself in the arm in her bedroom on Oct. 13, 2014. He said the blood that was found under the carpet came from that self-inflicted wound. "Elizabeth had inf licted the wound on herself," said DeBose. Matthew Sullivan tied a tourniquet around her arm, said DeBose,

who added that she asked him not to call for medical treatment. She disappeared afterward, and two sheriff's deputies later said a woman who looked like her was found in a park where she sometimes slept, said DuBose. DeBose said Elizabeth Sullivan's behavior was erratic, and she drank whiskey and used cocaine, methamphetamine, and fentanyl. Lindberg told jurors in her opening statement that Elizabeth Sullivan was stabbed to death with a knife that cut five of her ribs. After her husband moved away, a test was performed that showed large bloodstains under the carpet and padding underneath, said Lindberg. Coincidentally, Sullivan went to a store in October 2014, and purchased only one thing – carpet cleaner, said Lindberg. A missing person's report was filed in 2014. Police officers did check the three-story townhome, but they could not find any evidence she was there. An empty freezer was in the garage, and an officer noticed the freezer being empty but also plugged in at the time. Two years later, after movers had emptied the house, the decomposed remains of Elizabeth Sullivan were found in the bay just one-half mile from home, said the prosecutor. A deputy U.S. marshal was walking his dog at Liberty Station on Oct. 4, 2016, when he

LEAP DAY

FRIDAY · February 28, 2020 THE PENINSULA BEACON

Victoria Beach in Laguna Beach features a tower, one of the sculptures at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, the border wall and artwork at Playas de Tijuana.

THOMAS MELVILLE/PENINSULA BEACON (ALL)

THERE ARE ENDLESS OPTIONS HERE AND NEAR FOR 24 MORE HOURS OF FUN Here’s our list of amazing things to do and try for an awesome leap day Beach, a nd M i s sion Beach while indulging in the best tacos, craft beers, and libations that America’s Finest City has to offer. Visit tacotoursd.com for more information.ß

You may live an additional 24 hours this Saturday, Feb. 29 due to the leap year, but will you live it up? What you would do if you only had one more day left? Given it’s a weekend, and you’re likely not working your typical 9 to 5 gig, possibilities for things to do in San Diego, and indeed all of Southern California, are limitless. Here are just a few suggestions for things to do, in and around San Diego, on your extra 24 hours, whether that be trying out something new, or taking a day trip elsewhere within a short drive. • Try kitesurf ing. If you would like to feel the sensation of f light, water walking abilities and a superhero complex, take kitesurfing lesson from Jeff Raney, who is based out of Fiesta Island. Kitesurfing takes desire, commitment and time flying the kites. The more time you spend flying the kites, the better your kite control will be in the water and progress with your board skills. On average, about 8-10 hours of lessons needed before you can safely get on your own. About the first four hours are all land lessons so you will most likely not be touching the water on the first day. Call 760-840-0028 to set up some lessons. • Yoga by the ocean: Come practice yoga by the Pacif ic Ocean in a free, donation-based class held every Saturday and Sunday from 10 to 11:30 a.m. at the end of Law Street in PB. This is a challenging, all-levels class that will leave you feeling completely alive and invigorated, led by local instructor Steve Hubbard (aka Namasteve). Hubbard started out in yoga years ago to improve his volleyball game. “Very soon, I discovered that it provided way more than a better jump serves,” he said. “The overall feelings of physical vitality, emotional equanimity, and mental clarity were astounding.” Hubbard describes yoga as “a tool in a journey toward personal growth.” “My intention in teaching is to

FEELING COMFORTABLE – AND SEXY – IN YOUR OWN SKIN Luci Lampe, an Ocean Beach-based mom of four, author of “Achieving Sexy,” songwriter/ model, and founder of the Sexy Mama Movement, shares her thoughts on trying something new on leap day. “Many of us wish we had more hours in a day, and most have an idea of what we’d do with those extra hours. Lucky for us, every leap year we get a whole extra 24 hours. So how can we take advantage of the extra hours in 2020? Personally, I like to spend time going on new adventures and trying things I’ve been curious about, but maybe a little scared to do. One of those things was visiting Blacks Beach with my husband on his birthday last year, shedding our clothes in favor of our birthday suits. Who doesn’t want to spend their birthday naked with their lover, right? encourage students to discover their personal greatness,” said Hubbard. “We’re powerful beyond belief and yoga has a way of helping us remember that. The classes I lead are physically powerful, yet introspective and meditative. I encourage students to listen to their inner intelligence and to honor themselves.”

At first, I thought it would be weird being naked in front of other people. To my surprise, it felt so natural and very freeing! Our tan lines gave us away as newbies, but the regulars were so surprised at how comfortable we both were walking around, exploring the beach, even making friends (yes, naked friends. It wasn’t so awkward after all!). People there overall seem very accepting of themselves and their bodies, regardless of their shape or size. I love that. Since then, it’s been our favorite beach to visit when we have some time to get away for a couple hours. The hike down and up is definitely a good little warmup, so be prepared for that; and bring lots of water and snacks. It may be a bit nipp(l)y out on Feb. 29, but even if you wait til it’s warmer, I hope you give it a try!

and February is prime time for seeing gray whales off the coast. Just head down to Quivira Road in Mission Bay where they are several places offering cruises for whale and dolphin watching. Sometimes the smaller operations – such as the six-passenger Gone Whale Watching boat – offer a more exciting and intimate experience than the larger cruises.

Avenue will be the host of a bar yard sale starting at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 29. Visitors can buy, sell, and enjoy drinks at the community yard sale.

• H i ke Bi ke Kaya k Adventure Tours: Owned by native La Jollans Michael and Sharon Luscomb, HBK is exactly what their name implies, an adventure, and a local history lesson, on La Jolla coastal geography and ocean wildlife. “Our tours run 90 minutes to two hours,” said Michael Luscomb noting he and his wife have run their family-owned and operated La Jolla Shores business for 25 years. “Our tours start at 9 a.m. and run every hour on the hour.” Tour guides, who are lifeguard certified, are well versed in La Jolla’s wildlife, and place a heavy emphasis on educating guests about the ecology and conservation of native species they’ll encounter on their guided tours of the La Jolla Ecological Reserve. The reserve is home to California Sea Lions, Harbor Seals, Garibaldi fish, Brandt’s Cormorant, Brown Pelicans, Leopard Sharks, and dolphins, among others. La Jolla Kayak also rents an array of beach equipment including sun umbrellas, masks, snorkels, wetsuits and boogie boards. “We explore the seven caves of La Jolla and discuss the history of La Jolla,” said Luscomb. “Our kayaks are extremely user-friendly and are very stable.” Call 858551-9510 for more information. • Visit A nza-Borrego Desert State Park and check out the amazing sculptures at Borrego Springs. There are more than130 steel-welded sculptures created by 'Perris Jurassic Park' owner/a rtist/welder Rica rdo Breceda at Galleta Meadows, including a 350-foot-long serpent, a scorpion and a huge T. rex. After taking photos of the sculptures, roam the 100 miles of hiking trails like The Slot or Hellhole Canyon to Maidenhair Falls. For more information, visit parks.ca.gov.

LEAP DAY • Visit Laguna Beach. Right up I-5 in Orange County is the artist colony of Laguna Beach. The city’s topography is unique to other California coastal cities with its seven miles of coves and beaches where visitors can explore sea caves, tide pools, ocean side bluffs, natural tide pools and of course, sandy beaches, all within city limits. Laguna also boasts the most beachfront lodging options in California, making it an ideal spot for a weekend getaway. • Visit both sides of the border wall: On the U.S. side, head to Border Field State Park and take an easy hike down the beach to check out the wall as it extends into the Pacific Ocean. Be on the lookout for horses and what they leave behind. On the Mexico side, cross the border at San Ysidro and head west to Playas de Tijuana. At the Monumental Plaza de Toros you will be in the shadow of the bull ring, the lighthouse, and the colorfully painted border wall. Stroll the Malecon that’s filled with vendors selling churros, elotes and Tostilocos. • H i k i ng just m ight be Southern Californians’ official pass time. There are dozens of options – from the Potato Chip Rock in Poway to Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve to Tecolote Canyon Trail right outside PB to Annie’s Slot Canyon near Solana Beach. Of course, one of the most popular hikes is Cowles Mountain in Mission Trails Regional Park – the highest point of the City of San Diego.

A PERFECT DAY ALONG WITH COAST San Diego influencer Celeste Hernholm, who posts weekend guides on Instagram @Seldomlystill, offers her take on how to best enjoy leap day at the beach. "Because a leap year only comes around every four years, Feb. 29 is the perfect day to hang out with a friend you haven't seen in a while. Start with a hot beverage from Bird Rock Coffee Roasters and a freshly baked English muffin at Wayfarer Bread & Pastry. Then go for a leisurely stroll along the boardwalk in Mission Beach. Grab an early dinner and catch the sunset at Tower 23's restaurant, JRDN, in Pacific

Beach, and finish your ‘San Diego Riviera’ day with a wine tasting at 3rd Corner Wine Shop & Bistro in Ocean Beach."

Surf’s up for pets as SUP Pups branches out

To schedule lessons, visit the SUP Pup’s Instagram: @sup_pups.

by Victoria Davis | The Beacon

Since 2014, Sam Eastburn has been teaching San Diegans how to captain their stand-up paddleboards alongside their furry first-mates through her company SUP Pups. While Eastburn’s doggy paddleboarding lessons were formerly an extension of The SUP Connection, a Liberty Station SUP rental company, this year Eastburn decided to stretch her company’s wings and f ly solo. “Every year I’ve gotten busier and busier,” said Eastburn, who has hosted private lessons for human-dog duos, as well as for dog birthdays and has even partnered with non-profits like the San Diego Rhodesian Ridgeback Club and San Diego Pittie Parents for special paddleboarding events. “Now I want to see how much my business can grow.” Originally from Arizona, Eastburn moved to San Diego in 2013, already having visited Campland on the Bay every year for family vacations since she was 5 years old. Eastburn started working at San Diego Bay Adventures as a jet ski tour guide. After getting her certification to become a paddleboarding instructor, Eastburn started SUP Pups, offering lessons to those who want to learn to paddleboard with their dogs. The business was inspired by Eastburn’s own lab-mix rescue, Jack. “I took him out with me right

after I got certified and he absolutely loved it,” said Eastburn. “He’s such a little fisherman, and he uses the board as his little boat. It’s hilarious. He’ll just stare into the water as we paddle, looking for fish.” Sup Pups started as a “casual meet-up” between Eastburn and her clients, but as interest grew, Eastburn reached out to The SUP Connection, who hired Eastburn to manage the rentals while also being the new home for SUP Pups. For the last five years, Eastburn has introduced the sport of paddleboarding to blind, deaf and three-legged

dogs. “I also took out a deaf cat once,” said Eastburn. But now, the young entrepreneur has decided it’s time to grow outside of The SUP Connection nest. “I actually want to franchise SUP Pups,” said Eastburn. “Say you’re a paddle-boarder in Texas and you want to do SUP Pups. I want to have a whole online program that will certify you to become a paddleboard instructor for SUP Pups.” “The guys at The SUP Connection have been like father figures to me, but I wanted to go back to my roots

and why I did this in the first place,” she added. “It wasn’t about rentals or working in a warehouse. It was about SUP Pups.” Now its own LLC, SUP Pups will be adding not only online certification to their business, but also more fundraising events such as promoting foster dogs who are up for adoption. Eastburn also wants to start an SUP Pups Dog Day Adventure camp, based in San Diego. “Sam has a true gift of connecting with people and dogs of all walks of life,” said local Alycia Cardona, who took a SUP

Pup lesson with her bulldog mix Bluebelle. “Sam has a lot to offer and I am truly excited for all of her upcoming endeavors. Her love for water is contagious and she has a natural talent for making anyone feel comfortable. Bluebelle and I have turned into lifetime SUPers.” Having worked with all sorts of disabled pets, as well as dogs with severe water anxiety, Eastburn also has the dream to write her own children’s book, the story narrated through the perspective of her dog, Jack. “I want to write a book that shows kids they can get out there a nd do a ny thi ng de spite their disabilities or being scared,” said Eastburn, who has helped both dogs and their owners get over the fear of trying something new. “I look back and laugh at the first message I sent her because I gave her every excuse in the world,” said Cardona. "I’m overweight, bad bones, have no experience, I will sink the board, I don’t know if my dog can swim… You name it, I said it. Sam never once hesitated to schedule with me. She has a special way of taking away your insecurities.” With her new Chevy van and freshly bought paddleboard, Eastburn will continue to offer lessons at Liberty Station, and hopefully Fiesta Island in the future. Individual SUP Pup lessons are offered Monday through Sunday and cost $65-$115. To schedule, visit the SUP Pup’s Instagram: @ sup_pups.

Synergy 180 blends yoga, high-intensity fitness in Ocean Beach By Dave Schwab | The Beacon

As its name implies, Synergy 180 in Ocean Beach harmoniously blends yoga, high-intensity fitness and an in-house health bar to create a holistic exercise experience for all. Owner-operator Sofia Laasiri Whitfield started out 10 years ago as a Zumba instructor in a small Minnesota gym. “I was in college and I always loved dancing,” Laasiri Whitfield said noting she was impressed by how her charges were “getting results, losing weight and becoming happier.” Pointing out she was “seeing how much working out was changing her client’s lives,” Laasiri Whitfield added, “I went from teaching Zumba to teach group classes and doing one-on-one. I realized, this is what I want to do for the rest of my life.” After running her own fitness studio in Minnesota for 2 1/2 years, then taking a break to travel for a year, Laasiri Whitfield moved to San Diego with renewed purpose. “The concept itself (Synergy) derived from the studio I used to own,” she said. “It was all high-intensity. But then I started practicing yoga and strength, and that’s when I realized, there isn’t a studio that offers what we offer.”

Synergy 180 / Vili’s Health Bar Where: 4861 Newport Ave. Info: synergy180.com, 619-838-6906

The fitness entrepreneur said her students exercise by alternating between high-intensity cardio and strength training, before finishing with cool-down yoga instruction, where her patrons are “able to get a little more flexible and stretch out.” Group sessions at Synergy 180 typically range from four to 14 people. Sessions are 45 minutes long and include a five-minute warmup before the workout. “It’s 30 seconds on, 10 seconds off for about four or five rounds,” noted the fitness instructor. “We’re weaving in the high intensity and the strength, going through one or the other.” Dumbbells, barbells and kettle bells are used in strength conditioning. With yoga, Laasiri Whitfield noted, “You’re focusing on stretching, mobility and breathing. With all of those blended together, it gives you the perfect fitness workout.” Synergy 180 accepts drop-ins as well as allowing regular patrons to pay by the class, the month or even by the year. Male and female clients range in age from 16 to 70. “People are looking to take their fitness to the next level, or try something different, or they’re

THE PENINSULA BEACON’S Blast from the Past By Dorette Jackson – From the July 1982 edition of the Beacon

As I Remember, Sixteen Years Ago

The sculptural piece titled The Tuna Wall was designed by Julius Joplin, a Mar Vista High School sophomore.

Students DesignAHEAD at San Diego International Airport By Dave Schwab | The Beacon

Local youth recently unveiled original artwork in San Diego International Airport’s Terminal 2. The new artwork was part of the DesignAHEAD program, in which about 75 students from three different San Diego-based educational institutions participated. Students were tasked with a real-world design challenge faced in an airport environment. The resulting student conceptual projects range from inventive monument signs that might welcome travelers to SAN, to imaginative architectural models for a new terminal. At a recent airport press conference, youthful designers discussed their inspiration and the creative process behind their airport artwork, while guiding a tour of the unique exhibition. DesignAHEAD created a prototype for an immersive seating, rest and wellness experience around the theme of “Welcome to San Diego.” Their work is largely inspired by the rich diversity of cultures in the region. “I created this sculptural piece titled The Tuna Wall, which serves as a seating element for airport travelers hoping to have a more tranquil experience, while also enjoying an aesthetically pleasing reflection on San Diego’s history,” said DesignAHEAD youth designer 15-year-old Julius Joplin, a Mar Vista High School sophomore. “It was inspired by my love for fishing, the ocean, and my heritage as the product of Sicilian immigrants to America.” Joplin said he and teammate Esteban “spent many hours at A Reason to Survive (ARTS), refining the concept and turning it into a sculptural piece.” Founded in 2001, ARTS uses creativity as a tool to improve the lives of youth. Joplin described himself as an “analog person (focusing on) raw materials and a close connection to nature. I relate to what is real and

not over-produced, so my work reflects that.” But Joplin admitted, “I was ready to explore 3D modeling and new technology.” Concerning his project, Joplin said, “It would be incredible if this became part of a permanent space in the airport. But I am really just enjoying the experience as part of my development as an artist. The exhibit will continue for several months, so I feel honored to be a part of it.” Of what he got out of the experience, Joplin said, “I learned quite a lot about meeting public standards and expectations … I learned the importance of diplomacy in groups, and to work with a flexible outlook. …There is a huge difference in creating work for private or personal means versus for a public space.”

Added Joplin, “I was really happy to be a part of an institution like ARTS that truly supported young artists by offering all the materials, space and knowledge required to pursue the field with integrity. It actually gave me more faith in my community to see there were individuals dedicated to making the arts a priority in our lives.” ARTS and the San Diego International Airport are committed to developing the next generation of innovators in the region. The DesignAHEAD program is central to achieving this goal. Through the experience, youth get a firsthand look at career pathways in art, design, transportation and tourism. In operation since 1928, the airport celebrated more than 90 years of service to the San Diego region in 2018.

David William Diehl 1/26/1943 – 12/23/2019 Born in Erie, Pennsylvania. Obtained a teaching degree at Endenboro State University, Pennsylvania. Moved to San Diego and attended USD Law School and graduated as an Environmental Lawyer. David was an environmental activist and was best known for stopping the Ocean Beach Boardwalk and is the co founder of the People’s Food Market. He loved OB and did whatever he needed to stop over development. Memorial service will be at Sacred Heart Church in OB on February, 29 at 11am.

The San Diego Municipal Pier at Ocean Beach, as indicated on the road-sign at the end of the Ocean Beach Freeway, leads recent Ocean Beach residents and tourists alike in believing that our city fathers have enhanced this beach community with a fishing pier. Not so. Dreams have ways of coming true. Karl Schroeder had such a dream: a fishing pier off our beach. An avid fisherman himself, he had many supporters of that idea. In the early 60's, Ocean Beach had its Kiwanis and Moose, a Merchants Association, the Women's Club, the Friendly Club, the Garden Club and the Thursday Club. Nothing much controversial was then going on, but in unison the "pier fever" spread. In late 1964, a strange yet constant noise could be heard at the foot of Niagara Avenue; pilons were being placed in the ocean floor. It was happening! Soon after, trucks loaded down with huge slabs of concrete came roaring into Ocean Beach. The parking lot at the foot of Newport Avenue was a beehive of activity. The $855,000 project was to extend 2,000 feet offshore. 167 concrete pilings, 58 feet in length were intended to support the deck with an extension of two 192 foot arms in the shape of a "Y" at the end of the main stem. (For structural reasons, the "Y" ended up in a "T".) Massive cranes put "roadbed slabs" of pre-stressed concrete 30 and 50 feet in length, on the pilings. The 50-foot slabs, 6 feet wide and 18 inches thick and the 30-foot slabs of 6 feet 8 inches wide and 8 inches thick altogether became the longest pier on the West Coast. Fishing afficionados were promised top kelp fishing and under California State Law no fishing license was required (still true today). While all this was going on, speculation was rampant that the fish were being driven away by the noise. "Experts" claimed that the noise was attracting the fish. The fact remained that enormous Black Sheephead were being caught or could be seen floating, killed by accident, around

the pier construction site. I remember the excitement when I took my cub-scout troop on the pier for the first time; no railings were yet in place, just the slabs on top of the pilings and the pounding surf below. By Springtime of 1966, the grand opening of the pier was officially set for the upcoming Independence Day. What's a Fourth of July without fireworks? An all out effort was made to raise the necessary funds (less than $600). Merchants agreed to have "donation cans" on their counters, organizations and individuals donated more substantial sums, but nickel and diming it worked. A committee enthusiastically organized a week-long medley of activities preceeding the Fourth. A surfing contest attracted many, but the Community Talent Show, musicians and comedy acts were the high points with many performances held on a portable stage, set up right where the infamous "wall" once was. The word got out somehow (we did not have two newspapers then), the fine weather helped, and the crowds kept coming. The ribbon-cutting was done by Governor "Pat" Brown, (then running for re-election) flanked by Mayor Dail and many other officials. The fireworks, contracted with the San Diego Fireworks Display, were designed specially for the grand opening. The display was culminated with a "cascade" and large "O.B." looming over the western arm of the pier. The cascade that night in 1966, led some nervous spectators to believe that the pier had caught on fire.

I absolutely loved the article written by Dorette Jackson on the front cover. She was writing about the 60’s and the opening of the pier. I really enjoy Dorette’s writing style, wellresearched content, and her knowledge of all things OB. These old newspapers are full of newsy tidbits about locals making a difference in their community. I’m so glad The Beacon is publishing them for all of us to read.

WE CAN’T PREDICT THE NEXT EARTHQUAKE BUT WE CAN PREPARE FOR IT

The safety of millions of residents is an everyday job for us. It’s why we continually upgrade and test our equipment before Mother Nature ever gets the chance. And why we work with regional partners to coordinate preparedness, response and recovery. You can prepare by creating an emergency plan and practicing important safety tips. Here are just a few examples:

BY SCOTT HOPKINS | The Beacon

With winter sports playoffs underway in the San Diego CIF Section, it's the girls at Point Loma High who are making the most headway while one team won its first league title in many years.

Before an earthquake:

• Prepare an emergency kit. • Move or secure items that are large, heavy or unstable. • Make an emergency preparedness

NEWS ARENA

CONTINUED FROM Page 1

“They (City) have come to Midway planning showing concept drawings of residential developments, small commercial designs, canals with water features, many different things over the years. It’s like they have no ‘real plans.’” M idway-Pac i f ic H ig hway Community Planning Group, recently completed its community plan update, the neighborhood’s blueprint for future development. Cathy Kenton, Midway-Pacific Highway Community Planning Group chair, believes the arena could use a redo. “My understanding is it’s beyond cost-effective to try and renovate the existing facility,” Kenton said. “But if we are going to have an indoor sports facility, that is probably the best location. There isn’t another good location in the city.” Noting she “doesn’t have a strong opinion” about how the arena is ultimately redeveloped, Kenton added, “The sense of the community during the planning process was that there are a lot of folks who would like to see some form of entertainment venue retained in Midway. What [RFP] calls for is mixed-use. It’s not going to be a tear down that leaves a big parking lot. It’s going to be a mixed-use community with one or more parking structures.” The City said qualified RFP proposals for the sports arena area are due June 4 by 5 p.m.

Currently home to Pechanga Arena, retail businesses and a parking lot, the six-parcel site is in the heartof the Midway-Pacific Highway Community Plan area. THOMAS MELVILLE/PENINSULA BEACON

“The City will accept proposals from qualified organizations that will help achieve the City’s vision of a pedestrian- and transit-oriented landmark that sustainably incorporates a mix of entertainment, office retail, residential, affordable housing, recreational, public and park/ plaza uses and is looking to ground lease the site,” said City spokesperson Racquel Vasquez. Concerning whether the arena will be preserved or torn down, and whether current tenants — Kobey’s Swap Meet, Gulls hockey, Seals lacrosse, Sockers soccer, and Strike Force football — will stay or go, Vasquez said, “This will be up to the proposers.” Vasquez added whatever changes are made to the arena will be “authorized by the City Council.” She added, “The City reserves the right to reject all proposals and re-issue the RFP.” Today, the area is home to the Pechanga Arena San Diego on Sports Arena Boulevard. Besides sporting events, that venue is used for concerts and touring events like “Disney on Ice.”

Mayor Keven Faulconer welcomes a sports arena area update. “This is an opportunity to breathe new life into the Midway and unlock its full potential as an entertainment district for all San Diegans to enjoy,” Faulconer said. Of redevelopment, District 2 Councilmember Dr. Jen Campbell said, “This urban location, with its close proximity to downtown, could become a vital connector to our beach and bay communities while remaining a lively entertainment destination. If done correctly, Midway can become an example of how visionary San Diego can be.” Pechanga Arena seats between 12,000 and 15,000. According to the venue’s website, the arena hosts 125 events and 750,000 visitors annually. The venue first opened in November 1966 as the San Diego International Sports Arena. By 1970, it dropped the “International,” and became just the San Diego Sports Arena. The arena has changed names many times over the past 53 years.

THE PENINSULA BEACON | FRIDAY · February 28, 2020 | PAGE 17

San Diego Ballet dancer has the drive – for success Marika Gould is a gifted ballerina sharing her talent with the San Diego Ballet. Born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, Gould’s father moved the family to the “little town” of Hesperia, Calif., when she was 2 years old. Life as a performer began in Lomitas Elementary School “when I was a tree in the ‘Wizard of Oz.’” Bitten by the performance bug, she attended tap, jazz, contemporary dance, and aerial arts classes during her junior and high school years. Gould’s Encore High School’s musical theatre group was so talented, they traveled to Scotland to perform at the Aberdeen International Youth Festival. Performances included “Alice in Wonderland” – Gould held the leading role of Alice – “Freestyle Circus,” and “Blazing Tide.” While attending Riverside City College, she continued to audition for coveted spots in traveling and summer dance companies. The Kirov Academy of Ballet of Washington, D.C. accepted her for their 2016 summer program. With her talent on full display, she was quickly brought on board for their year-round training program. Gould then met Erin Forrest, a ballet professional who would change her life. “Erin taught me ballet fundamentals, pieces that were missing because of my musical theatre background,” said Gould. “Ms. Forrest soon opened her own school – the Forrest Academy of Ballet New York – in Manhattan the following year. I moved to New York to attend FABNY and learn even more.” “Marika was blessed with a

beautiful physique for ballet, wisdom, and a determination to move mountains,” said Forrest. “Her drive and curiosity to learn the unknown, combined with her goal to be the best she can be, continues to catapult her to success. Within three years, she was cast to perform the coveted, iconic, lead role of Odette in ‘Swan Lake,’ something unheard of in the ballet world.” In New York, Gould performed as the soloist in Manu Dance in ‘La Bayadere’; as Aurora in ‘Sleeping Beauty’; and Odette in ‘Swan Lake.’ She continued with the Bolshoi Ballet’s summer intensive program and the St. Petersburg Festival Ballet intensive in St. Petersburg, Russia. “The St. Petersburg Festival Ballet intensive is organized by Oleg Vinogradov, the former director of the Mariinsky Theat re,” ex pla i ned Gou ld. “Vinogradov only invites a select group. I worked with amazing and well-known ballerinas including Irina Gensler, Irina Guseva, Gabriella Kom leva, Tatiana Sokolova, and Oleg Vinogradov himself.” Upon graduating from the

Forrest Academy of Ballet New York in 2019, the starlet was invited to join the ensemble of San Diego Ballet. Gould spoke highly of the “unique company” with “lots of original choreography by our artistic director, Javier Valesco.” “I love the diversity of the repertoire at San Diego Ballet,” she continued. “I’m excited to explore new styles of movement and to work with the other beautiful dancers in the company.” In addition to a full schedule of rehearsals in Liberty Station’s Dorothea Luab Dance Place, Gould is carrying a full-time course load in criminology from Norco College to become a behavioral analyst “when my body can’t perform anymore.” Despite the grueling, six-day commute that averages two hours each way, Gould is thrilled to be dancing with San Diego Ballet. “The company environment is a close-knit family-like team working together to showcase amazing performances,” she said. “Marika is a lovely company dancer,” said Noriko Zaragoza, assistant to the directors of San Diego Ballet. “Marika’s loved and respected by her peers because she’s genuine, honest, and trustworthy with a can-do attitude that inspires, encourages and uplifts others,” added Forrest. “Marika’s every teacher’s dream – hard-working, intelligent, determined, and inquisitive. Not a day went by without questions to clarify – and ultimately improve her performance.” “I know that with hard work and dedication, I will achieve my dreams,” Gould concluded. “I hope to be in San Diego for a long time, rising the ranks within San Diego Ballet.

ROSIN

CONTINUED FROM Page 17

On the bill for The Rosin Box Project’s 2020 summer season are two performances at Tenth Avenue Arts Center in downtown San Diego. The first production, to be held in the intimate black box theatre space, will be repertoire distinct to the innovative company. The program will feature ballets created by The Rosin Box

Project choreographers and two works from San Diego native Kevin Jenkins. The second production will be four evenings of world premiere contemporary ballets, including a new work by a special guest choreographer. The Rosin Box Project also plans to host a “Ghost Light Masquerade” fundraiser in June, combining a masked ball and modern-day speakeasy with popup performances and devilish fun. Dancers will illuminate the dark

corridors of Tenth Avenue’s gallery spaces in a one-night, after-hours event. The Rosin Box Project also has its sight set on education programs that provide integrated learning platforms to schools across the county, as well as mentorship for young and aspiring dance students to effectively pursue their passion. Due to the creative and nurturing environment, the company has created for its artists, both Topazio and

Dancy see dance education as a part of The Rosin Box Project’s work heading into future seasons. As a fundamental part of its mission, The Rosin Box Project provides an opportunity for the choreographers and dancers with whom it works to explore their creative talent and technical craft through the creation and presentation of original contemporary ballets. Carly Topazio created The Rosin Box Project in May 2018. Starting with a photo campaign and a

handful of professional dancers, she created a collective to present an original and innovative view on contemporary ballet, culminating in a series of sold-out performances. Staying true to the intimate nature of the company, the dancers orchestrated every aspect of putting on a production and curating visual appeal - choreographing, fundraising, marketing, and directing.
