Mission Bay lands $10.5M in stimulus funds BY SEBASTIAN RUIZ | THE BEACON

About $10.5 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act stimulus money will go to dredge parts of Mission Bay around Quivira Basin that have slowly been filling with silt, according to a report heard by members of the Mission Bay Park Committee on May 5. Other improvements driven by the federal economic stimulus

money include fixing deteriorating parts of the Mission Bay Channel jetty. “There’s been a host of accidents but nothing that major,” said Bill Harris, a spokesman for Mayor Jerry Sanders’ office. There have been about 150 boating accidents over the last four years near Bonita Cove because of silting and jetty rock erosion. The erosion has caused narrowing of the channel and

shallower basins, according to a statement from the mayor’s office. Harris said work is slated to start by early fall. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is responsible for maintaining navigable channels, which includes Mission Bay, Harris said. The channel hasn’t been dredged since 1986, according to city offiSEE MBPC, Page 2

With the entire region of Southern California facing drought conditions, the city will start requiring residents and some businesses to change the way they use water effective June 1. The new water regulations come as the city prepares for less water coming from the city’s two main suppliers, the San Diego County Water Authority and the Metropolitan Water District, city officials said. The cuts translate into an estimated 10 percent reduction to the city’s water supplies, according to Bill Harris, a spokesperson for the mayor’s office. While impending regulations, including only watering lawns between 6 p.m. and 10 a.m., may take some water users by surprise, others are already in the habit of conserving, which has helped the city save water, city officials said. “[Watering between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.] is just a smart practice anyway, to prevent waste,” said Luke Sandri, manager of Green Garden Nursery at 4910 Cass St. “Everybody seems to be aware of it.” Businesses like Green Garden Nursery and Coastal Sage Gardening in Ocean Beach have been tweaking their business practices to deal with drought conditions for a while. The city won’t hinder their con-

sumption. The new regulations won’t affect them as much as residential and other users who will only be allowed to irrigate on specific days, for 10 minutes at a time per watering station. Each sprinkler head on an irrigation system can water for 10 minutes. “As long as sprinklers don’t overlap [areas] because we don’t want people over-watering,” Harris said. Decorative fountains must have a recirculating pump. According to the city’s Level 2 Drought Alert webpage: • Homes with odd-numbered SEE WATER, Page 8

Red-hot PLNU slams into nationals with conviction BY KEITH ANTIGIOVANNI | THE BEACON

The Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) Sea Lions won the inaugural Golden State Athletic Conference (GSAC) tournament last week at Carroll B. Land Stadium and entered the opening round of the National Athletic Interscholastic Association (NAIA) playoffs Tuesday in Azusa as the No. 3 seed. “Everyone is healthy and we are swinging the bat pretty well,” said PLNU head baseball coach Joe Schaeffer. The other teams in the bracket

are GSAC rivals Azusa Pacific University and Biola University, along with nonconference opponents British Columbia University and Purdue North Central University. The Sea Lions defeated Azusa 81 Tuesday in the opening round of the double-elimination NAIA Tournament, continuing to set their sights high. Going into the nationals, Schaeffer was optimistic about his team’s chances of advancing. “I feel pretty confident about the nationals,” Schaeffer said. “There are nine five-team tournaments in the nationals and we are probably

in the toughest of all of them.” Schaeffer also noted that despite the overall success of the team this season, the opening round would not be easy. “It is going to be a battle but if we can come out on the winning end then it will prepare us for what we face next,” he said. The Sea Lions opened the GSAC Tournament on May 5 with a 4-0 victory over The Master’s College, followed by a 3-2 extra-inning win over Fresno Pacific on May 6 before going on to ultimately defeat Point Loma Nazarene University pitcher Andrew Bovich improved his overall record to a perfect 11-0 on May 5 to lead the Sea Lions ultimately to a title in the SEE BASEBALL, Page 5 Golden State Athletic Conference tournament.

Healing the bay with safer new hull paint BY MICHELLE HACKNEY | THE BEACON

By participating in an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) funded study of copper-free paints, Hornblower Cruises and Events is pioneering efforts to protect marine life and minimize the impact of boating in San Diego Bay. Hornblower Cruises and Events volunteered to test ten eco-friendly paints on the hull of the San Diegobased M/V Newport Hornblower as part of an EPA-funded study to find an alternative to copper antifouling hull paints. The donated paints were applied in March at Knight and Carver Yacht Center in National City. Researchers will spend the next two years (the normal life expectancy of copper-based paint) evaluating

the effectiveness of these paints in the environment. “We’re doing some experimental painting,” said Jim Unger, vice president of Hornblower Cruises and Events. “Traditionally, bottom paint has had toxins, either heavy metals or other biocides, that get into the water system. What we’re doing here is experimenting with paints that have very little, or none, of either.” The Port of San Diego has partnered with Hornblower on the study, which responded to a 1996 San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board report identifying high levels of dissolved copper in Shelter Island Yacht Basin waters. Boaters commonly use copper antifouling paints to prevent marine organism growth on boat hulls.

“The downside to using these copper paints is that the copper leaches off boat hulls and gets into the water column,” said Karen Holman, environmental specialist with the Port of San Diego. “At that point, it becomes potentially toxic to the marine organisms in the water and becomes a water-quality problem.” While testing also is taking place on smaller recreational boats, Hornblower’s participation allows researchers to perform side-by-side comparisons of the alternative paints. It also provides an educational opportunity for the public. Hornblower is promoting the project as part of its companywide “Respect Our Planet” program. Whale watching and bay cruise guests will learn about the study and related environmental initia-

tives through interactive exhibits aboard the M/V Adventure Hornblower. “What’s great is that this will actually be promoted through pictures and videos on Hornblower’s daily cruises,” said Unger. “We appreciate the opportunity to educate our guests and we encourage them to make environmentally responsible choices in their own lives.” Hornblower Cruises and Events has been the leading charter yacht

and public dining cruise company in California for nearly 30 years. Through its “Respect Our Planet” program, the company is making efforts to “go green” and feels it is in the perfect position to reach out to the masses and explain what that really entails since there are 32 vessels in use in ports in San Francisco, Berkeley, Long Beach, Newport Beach, Marina del Rey and San Diego.

Mission Bay Park Committee members reported a number of complaints stemming from the Stay Classy charity event May 2 at Mission Bay Park. Neighbors reported a number of noise complaints, a number of vehicles parked on the grass and turf and uncovered power cords, according to McKenzie’s report. • Beach crime report The Pacific Beach, Mission Beach and La Jolla Shores areas have seen a 16 percent decrease in crime in January, February and March as compared with the same time last year, according to San Diego Police Department Northern Division Capt. Shelley Zimmerman. Police officials said they have recently focused on traffic enforcement to deter criminal activity. The number of citations police doled out reflects a 140 percent increase in citations handed out as compared with the same period last year. Zimmerman said DUI checkpoints, bicycle officers and gangsuppression units will be a police staple during the summer months in anticipation of millions flocking to the beach areas for the Memorial Day and Fourth of July weekends. The last days of spring went unmarked by any significant incidents, Zimmerman said. “We’ve had very few minor incidents,” Zimmerman said. “A few lost kids — well, more like lost parents, because the kids know where they are.”

In other news from the Mission Bay Park Committee: • Sewage interceptor system Replacement of the deteriorating Mission Bay sewage interceptor system will begin again over the summer, said Jeff Soriano, project manager for the city’s Engineering and Capital Projects Department. About 22 stations around the bay along Mission Beach and near Tecolote Shores are slated for replacement of deteriorating access hatches. “Once we get a contractor on board we’ll be coming back to the [Mission Bay Park] Committee and present more details of the project,” Soriano said. The contract will go through the city’s bidding process in about two months, Soriano said. The Mission Bay sewage interceptor system redirects stormwater runoff to the sewer system in Point Loma instead of to the beach. • New cell towers A Verizon Wireless representative presented plans to install about six antennas to be put up on light standards along Quivira Road, according to Stacy McKenzie, Mission Bay Park District manager.

NewsBriefs Faulconer's staff agrees to 6 percent pay cut District 2 Councilmember Kevin Faulconer's staff has agreed to take a 6 percent pay cut to help close the city's estimated $60 million budget shortfall for fiscal year 2010. City Council had voted unanimously to slash the salaries of employees belonging to the city's five unions by 6 percent on April 14. Faulconer will not take the pay reduction himself because he has already opted out of the city's pension plan and does not take a car allowance or mileage reimbursements, according to his spokesperson, Tony Manolatos. The city saves $19,477 yearly by not paying into Faulconer's pension. City Council members under 55 must serve four years before they are eligible for a pension and must wait until age 55 to begin collecting their pension. City Council members that do pay into a pension must contribute 8 percent of their $75,386 salary annually. The mayor, city council members and the city attorney are the only city employees who are allowed to opt out of the pension plan; the pension is mandatory for the rest. Faulconer stopped accepting the city's $9,600 annual car allowance in April 2008. Faucloner also does not take mileage reimbursements that would amount to approximately $150 monthly.

Red-light photo camera activated in Midway area City officials have launched three new red-light photo cameras to step up motorist and pedestrian safety — including cameras in the Midway area and La Jolla. The sensor-based cameras are now mounted at Rosecrans Street at Nimitz Boulevard in the Roseville/Fleetridge neighborhood and on North Torrey Pines Road at Genesee Avenue in Torrey Pines. They became active April 30, according to police. A third new camera has been activated at Balboa Avenue and Kearny Villa Road in Kearny Mesa, bringing the total number of redlight photo cameras across the city to 15. According to Monica Muñoz, San Diego Police Department spokesperson, motorists caught on camera running a red light will have a 30-day grace period, during which a warning citation will be issued. She said beginning May 30, however, offenders caught on camera can expect to receive a citation with color photos of the violation and expect to pay a minimum $436 penalty. According to Muñoz, the systems are mounted on poles with sensors in front of an intersection. Once a light turns red, the system is activated and will recognize a vehicle that trips the sensors and travels across the limit line into the intersection. She said the system snaps photos of the vehicle from the front and behind but is designed to operate only after the signal has turned red. For more information, visit www.sandiego.gov.

NEWS Activists hoping to equip officers to combat noise BY SEBASTIAN RUIZ | THE BEACON

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 its beach 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 dona-

tion. Northern Division Police Capt. Shelley Zimmerman welcomes the decibel meters as another resource to help with other noise-related complaints. “This is something the community wanted,” Zimmerman said. “We could also use the meters for noiserelated 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. Chronic violators of the “zerotolerance” noise policy could result in police confiscating stereo equipment and possible arrests. The Mission Beach Town Council members presented representatives

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

GUEST EDITORIAL

Propositions best hope to stave cuts BY CHRISTINE KEHOE

tance of approving Propositions 1A through 1F, before our problems grow from inconvenient to insurmountable. Proposition 1A gets us off our current boom-bust fiscal rollercoaster by putting more money into a savings account for California called a “rainy day” budget stabilization fund. If we pass Proposition 1A, we’ll start saving more in good years so we have money in bad. The benefits of Proposition 1A are meaningful and proven. If California already had a rainy day fund on the books like in most other states, $9 billion in cuts could have been avoided this year. Proposition 1B ensures that schools will be repaid over time for the cuts they endured because of the budget crisis. Proposition 1C brings in $5 billion in Lottery revenues, so we don’t have to raise this money with more taxes or cuts — and makes the Lottery more efficient over time. Propositions 1D and 1E will temporarily move money in the state budget to keep children’s health programs up and running during the budget crisis. Finally, Proposition 1F prohibits legislators, the governor and other elected officials from getting pay raises when our state runs a budget deficit. If these measures aren’t passed, California will lose more than $23 billion in revenue over the next four fiscal years — on top of the multi-billion dollar deficits recently predicted by the Legislative Analyst’s Office. This would force unavoidable, unimaginable cuts to health care, infrastructure investment and public safety departments, the economic equivalent of a statewide meltdown. On May 19, voters have the power to approve a solution that puts the state back on sound fiscal footing, brings sanity to the budget process and protects ourselves from higher taxes and deeper cuts. In the face of severe economic circumstances, Propositions 1A-1F may not represent everything everyone wants, but they are exactly what the State of California needs if we are to pull ourselves out of the quagmire of fiscal crisis.

his year we faced a $42 billion state budget deficit, the largest in history. There were no easy choices as we grappled with a budget shortfall of this magnitude. In the end, we adopted a budget that was difficult but prevented California from falling into fiscal collapse. Part of the budget package included Propositions 1A-1F, which will be decided by voters at a statewide Special Election on May 19. Propositions 1A-1F represent the State’s last, best hope for staving off devastating cuts in education, health care, law enforcement and stabilizing our long-term budget process so California can start climbing out of our deep financial abyss. They are the product of months of difficult but good faith negotiations between Democratic and Republican state lawmakers, joined by a Republican Governor. Ultimately, they are the best of tough choices. Many of the ideas currently before voters have been discussed and debated at length, including the spending limit and rainy day fund that Proposition 1A would put into place. This budget crisis forced both Republicans and Democrats to work together to do what was best for the people of this state, to sacrifice partisan ideology for the sake of meaningful progress. This meant $15 billion in severe and permanent spending reductions. Our schools suffered a $9 billion cut. Health care providers were asked to operate on a shoestring budget. Social services were slashed to the bone. But it also meant temporary revenue increases, if we were to avoid a complete shutdown of our state government, our road and infrastructure projects and all of the jobs they generate. After all, we could have cut all the funding for prisons and higher education or fired every single state employee and still not have closed a $42 billion fiscal gap, nearly half the size of our entire budget. There is more budget trouble ahead as the economy continues to falter and tax rev— Christine Kehoe is the enues decrease even more than originally projected. But this state senator for the 39th Disonly underscores the impor- trict.

Homelessness concerns need to be addressed While I find your advocacy of the homeless admirable (“Area’s hungry, homeless see stepped-up relief,” May 7 Beacon, page 1), it seems to be interfering with the objectivity with which you have elected to report the news in our community. Specifically, while this week’s edition of the Beacon chronicled — as front-page news — the plight of the homeless, it buried the brutal stabbing death of another transient, in the heart of our community, as a mere blurb on page 4. Indeed, this gloss-over of transient violence followed the Beacon’s limited reporting of the recent attempted murder of a tourist at the hands of two transients. In that incident, two transients were convicted of the attempted murder of an Australian tourist. After beating the man unconscious, the two transients pushed him into a burning fire pit. Markedly absent from the Beacon’s reporting of such unfathomable violence was the fact that the two felons were in fact transients who had purportedly become unhappy with the victim’s presence on “their beach.” These unacceptable incidents, of course, follow a number of relatively recent acts of violence involving transients in our community. These incidents include, among others, the stabbing death of one transient, by another transient, at the base of the pier, the infamous police shooting of the transient who charged officers with a hunting knife and the transient stabbing of a local man, who in addition to being a native of the community, was an ex-lifeguard. Transient violence is an important issue in this community. We are a community flush with chil-

See who supports and opposes the measures. If you don’t have time to read the background on the propositions, scroll down to read “what a yes or no vote means” and a summary of the proponents’ and opponents’ arguments. In a nutshell: • Prop. 1A changes the state constitution to limit government spending and increase the “rainy day” fund. It also extends sales and use tax increases, an increased vehicle license fee and increased personal income tax rates past the

neighborhood hostage. Notions of political correctness make these parents wary of standing up. They hate the situation but they don’t know what to do about it. Personally, I couldn’t care less if the suggestion that expecting — nay, demanding — civility from all, including the homeless, is deemed insensitive. I do not care if “homeless advocates” wish to characterize me as selfish and boom that I should move to La Jolla. I don’t think so. I’m staying right here and I’m calling the police. The time has arrived for the folks who are this community to take it back. We do not have to put up with senseless violence. If the transients are unable to control their clear thirst for violence, for whatever reason, then they need to be dealt with aggressively. That, as a community, is our job and our responsibility to our children. As to the Beacon, you do your job and start reporting the news with objectivity.

original two-year expiration. • Prop. 1B amends the state constitution to set aside $9.3 billion in supplemental education funds to replace Prop. 98 that requires a minimum level of state funding for schools and community colleges. • Prop. 1C allows California to borrow against future lottery profits, enhance the flexibility of the lottery to increase its profitability and replace lottery payments to education with increased education funding from the state’s general fund. • Prop. 1D redirects funds for early childhood development programs to temporarily pay for the state’s general fund costs for existing programs for children up to age 5 and to help balance the budget. • Prop. 1E redirects funding that

expands mental health programs to the state’s general fund for two years. • Prop. 1F prohibits the governor, members of the Legislature and other elected officials from receiving pay raises when the state is running a deficit. The League of Women Voters opposes Props 1A, 1C, 1D and 1E.

dren. Rest assured, while I, and many in this community like me, are sympathetic to the many issues facing the homeless, our concern is a very distant second to the protection of our children. I find it deplorable that a substantial number of stay-at-home moms in Point Loma, very much including Ocean Beach and Point Loma Heights (the hill immediately above Ocean Beach) refuse to frequent Newport Avenue for purposes of shopping, purchasing a cup of coffee, or simply walking, because they are unwilling to subject themselves and our children to the more than likely encounter with an aggressive, bullying transient, or as my 4-year-old and I observed this past Saturday morning, a transient blowing snot out of his nose onto the sidewalk. Even I avoid a walk along Sunset Cliffs between the pier and Santa Cruz Street after dark. The simple fact is, this is our community. It makes me mad when I talk to other parents at Silver Gate Elementary School who are tired of transients holding our

Is My Parent’s Caregiver Mistreating Him? You live far from your parents and have hired caregivers to care for your parents but as their mental status deteriorates, you begin to worry that the caregivers are mistreating them. From a distance, it may be difficult for you to assess what is happening in their home. A geriatric care manager can help. She is able to keep track on how things are going. She would keep in touch with you by phone or email and take note of any concerns. A geriatric care manager is also a mandated reporter so she will be aware of any signs of neglect or mistreatment which can happen to anyone. Neglect or mistreatment can take the form of domestic violence, emotional abuse, financial abuse and just basic neglect. Sometimes, the needs associated with caring for an older adult can cause a caregiver to lash out physically or verbally. Sometimes, in the mid-to-late stages of Alzheimer’s disease, the older person may become physically aggressive or difficult to manage causing the caregiver to become abusive. Abuse and neglect are never acceptable responses. The geriatric care managers and caregivers at Innovative Healthcare Consultants are ready to step in immediately to help you.

addresses can water Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. • Homes with even-numbered addresses can water Saturday, Monday and Wednesday. • Apartments, condominiums and businesses can water Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Violators and heavy water users can be fined from $250 to more than $1,000 for reported violations. The city will hire another 10 code compliance officers, Harris said. Violations will be complaint-driven.

A full list of the regulations can be found at www.sandiego.gov. The city is also asking nurseries and other heavy water users, like golf courses, to use efficient irrigation systems. Because it’s part of its business, the city is not mandating nurseries and golf courses to cut their water use. Sandri said that in addition to selfadjusting irrigation systems that can detect moisture conditions, customers are also switching to more drought-resistant plants. There is also a trend toward growing vegetables at home. John Noble, owner of Coastal Sage Gardening at 3685 Voltaire St.,

said the new drought regulations changes the nature of the gardening and landscaping industry. “I think most nurseries are going to be focusing more on the droughttolerant plants this year,” Noble said. Water-storing succulents, shrubs and other native plants are part of the trend in this new water era, where scarcity is the norm. Because of the expected cuts to water supplies, Harris said that moving to a level 2 drought alert compels residents to change their water-using habits instead of mandating water allocations. The city will formulate a plan for water allocations should one be needed, he said. Harris said these regulations shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. “Mayor [Jerry Sanders] has been asking everyone to fundamentally change the way they think about and use water for more than two years now,” Harris said. “He’s been telling people: ‘You gotta get ready. You gotta be prepared. You have to know it’s coming.’” To help curb water usage, every drop counts, and it’s the small activities that make a difference. For example, Sanders no longer shaves in the shower to save water, according to Harris. To help spread the word about the new water regulations, the city’s Water Department will host public meetings throughout the city. The next meeting in District 2 takes place on Wednesday, May 27 at 6 Ponds and decorative fountains are on the city’s list of targeted water uses, p.m. at the Point Loma/Hervey although this one in Point Loma appears to be exempt because it supports branch Library, 3701 Voltaire St. PHOTO BY PAUL HANSEN | THE BEACON wildlife like these koi goldfish.

PLNU golfers to tee off in NAIA tourney BY KEITH ANTIGIOVANNI | THE BEACON

The Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU) golf team will be making its sixth consecutive appearance in the National Athletic Interscholastic Association (NAIA) Tournament under head coach Ben Foster when the Sea Lions travel to Silvis, Ill. from May 19-22 at the TPC Deere Run Golf Course. The date is also the 12th in 13 years and Point Loma Nazarene’s 16th overall appearance in NAIA golf competition. “The players have been busy with finals, but we have a good week of practice scheduled for this week,” Foster said. “We played at the Deere Run Golf Course in October, and it’s a great course. The John Deere Classic is played at the Deere Run course.” The Sea Lions clinched the berth in the nationals after a first-place finish in the Golden State Athletic Conference (GSAC) Cascade conference NAIA qualifier, beating out Cal Baptist 890 to 906. The Sea Lions also finished ahead of Concordia (922), Corban College (930), The Master’s College (933), Biola (953), Northwest Christian (957), College of Idaho (1003) and Warner Pacific (1010). Senior Sam Cyr wraps up his stellar collegiate career at Deere Run. In his four years at PLNU, Cyr won 11 tournaments, including the 2008 NAIA championship, and won

back-to-back national qualifier tournaments in 2008 and 2009, participating in three international tournaments. “You hate to see the seniors go, but that is part of what we do,” Foster said. “They are student-athletes. They finish their degree and then move on.” Cyr is attempting to become the first PLNU golfer to ever win backto-back NAIA titles. In addition to his 2008 national title, Cyr placed second in the 2007 NAIA tournament after he was in the lead entering the final round of play. Cyr has been named NAIA All-American three consecutive years, from 2006 to 2008, and is likely to be named All-American for a fourth straight year to tie Daniel Horning’s school record from 2002 to 2005, along with Cyr’s honors as 2007 Region II Player of the Year, 2007 Team Most Valuable Player and holding some of the top five records in PLNU season strokes average.

“Sam will probably turn professional in the fall,” Foster said. “He’ll be participating in an amateur invitational tournament this summer and then will come back and finish up his classes before he graduates. Everything is set up for Sam to win the NAIA title and go out with an even dozen victories.” The other departing seniors are Marc Machado and Trent Castro. “Two of our seniors have been with us since they were freshmen,” Foster said. “One guy (Castro) is a local guy (Lakeside High School and Cuyamaca College) and has come in and fit really well on the team.” The other players are sophomores Zack Ponder and Joel Salmond. Ponder was named the team’s most-improved player for this year. “From a team perspective, if Sam plays well in the tournament then the team will play well,” Foster said. “Those are good expectations.”

Rockabilly takes center stage at OB’s The Harp BY BART MENDOZA | THE BEACON

Wednesdays may stereotypically be considered a slower night for most clubs — but not anywhere that rockabilly stalwart Rip Carson is performing. Known for a riveting and occasionally manic performance style, Carson, alongside his band the Carcin-O-Genics, has been a Wednesday night mainstay at The Harp for more than a year in Ocean Beach. The popularity of his weekly, no-cover, three-sets-a-night show speaks to his musical staying power. For Carson, the appeal of rockabilly, more than five decades after its heyday, is obvious. “I guess it’s stuck around so

son stuff is that we throw in covers to appeal to a broader audience,” Carson said. Carson’s choice of covers often causes clubgoers to do a doubletake. “People like to hear stuff they know, and we give it to ’em,” long because it’s fun music,” Carson said. “But I rearrange Carson said. “You can undereverything.” stand the words, it has energy Carson points out that nightand it’s fun to dance to.” clubs have different types of While swing dancing is the crowds. norm at rockabilly shows, Car“If I play a hardcore rockabilly son noted that in Ocean Beach show in Los Angeles, I give ’em things are just a little different. all the originals,” Carson said. “Dancing is always encour“But for regular beach folks, you aged,” Carson said. “But it is OB, gotta give them a handful of after all, so the dancing isn’t stuff they know or they become always swing dancing or jiving. lethargic.” Sometimes it’s people spinning He said his audience won’t around aimlessly on the dance floor.” Rip Carson and the Carcin-O-Genics hear obvious songs like “Rock The Harp was Carson’s first perform Wednesdays at The Harp, 4935 Around the Clock” or “Hound Dog.” Instead, he has fun transsteady gig with the Carcin-ONewport Ave. in Ocean Beach.

indie rock band Rilo Kiley into a Motown-sounding song,” Carson said. “They may get a song they know like ‘Rape Me’ from Nirvana, but they‘re gonna get it with Merle Travis-style pickin’ and hiccups.” Carson has also become a studio favorite for session work. “I started doing studio work with legendary producer Mark Neill at Soil of The South studios in La Mesa,” Carson said. “I got to play on a lot of cool stuff there. I’m currently doing studio work up in the Valley, where they seem to utilize the fact that I can play any instrument pretty much. So they just hire me and I layer stuff. It beats having to hire five guys.” Carson has appeared on albums by The Paladins, Deke Dickerson and British soul singer James Hunter and others. Currently, Carson is working on a pop project and is recording his fifth album. While new sounds will always draw his attention, he considers rockabilly his core sound. “When I was about 16, I just got really heavy into it,” Carson said. “When I found out there was an actual scene for rockabilly and ’50s rock ’n’ roll, I got on board.” Carson notes his other musical endeavors are going well, including an indie pop band and occasional forays into the world of ’60’s garage rock. But Carson said rockabilly will remain his bread and butter. “I must say, the genre has been good to me over the years,” Carson said. “I make a living just doing this, and that’s nice.” Rip Carson and the Carcin-OGenics perform on Wednesdays at The Harp, 4935 Newport Ave. at 9 p.m. The show is for 21 and up, and there is no cover.

hen the Point Loma City Services Office closed down due to budget cuts, the Peninsula Senior Shepherd Center found itself homeless. Turning to a long time supporter, they found new quarters at All Souls’ Episcopal Church. “We like it here,” said Jean Durgan, Director of the center, “and we’re hoping that seniors will find us here,” she added. The Center offers many free or low cost services, including legal services; insurance advocacy services; transportation for shopping and medical appointments; AARP driving safety courses; free heath & safety related home repairs and handyman referrals; financial, housing, and health referrals; and life enrichment programs. “Most of our support comes from local churches in addition to All Souls’ including: St. Peter’s By the Sea Lutheran Church, Bethany Lutheran Church, Holy Trinity Parish, Point Loma Community Presbyterian Church, Westminster Presbyterian Church, Point Loma United Methodist Church, St. Agnes Roman Catholic Church,

Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church, First Church of the Nazarene and St. Charles Borromeo Roman Catholic Church,” said Jean. “The Center is based on a national model; we’re here to help seniors remain independent, we don’t duplicate existing services, we’re geographically based, and our support is ecumenical,” she added. The funds awarded to the Center from the MayFaire Market event will help extend outreach efforts. “I started with the Center in 1992 when my husband and I returned to Point Loma. In that time we’ve helped over a thousand local seniors. But we’ve used mostly word-of-mouth. I’m really excited about having the money to do more outreach, especially in these hard economic times,” said Jean. The Peninsula Senior Shepherd Center will be participating in the MayFaire Market, May 30th, 10am – 4pm, at All Souls Episcopal Church, at the corner of Chatsworth and Catalina Blvds. 619-223-6394.
