Galleries unveil Art Walk Fridays beginning April 3

BY ALYSSA RAMOS | VILLAGE NEWS

In an effort to bring locals into the Village, about 15 La Jolla art galleries have joined forces to produce La Jolla First Friday (LJFF) Art Walk. Beginning Friday, April 3, from 6 to 9 p.m., many La Jolla galleries will keep their doors open for the public, offering music and refreshments.

“The aim is to draw locals, the people that live here — so often we get tourist business,” said Rhea Williams-Krueger, art consultant at Martin Lawrence Galleries. “The aim is to grab the people who live here and make it entertaining and give them a reason to come to La Jolla once

a month. It’s community building.”

Williams-Krueger said Martin Lawrence Gallery hired a classical guitarist, and LJFF Art Walk galleries produced a walking map for the event.

“This is something they do in the gallery district of every major city in the U.S.,” WilliamsKrueger said. “They’ve been doing it forever.”

La Jolla’s gallery owners gathered together in an effort to create the event. According to a press release, gallery owners will create a new LJFF Art Walk the first Friday of each month.

SPRING SPORTS PREVIEW

Teams look to track league and CIF honors

BY DAVE THOMAS | VILLAGE NEWS

The 2009 local scholastic track season should offer athletes a good shot at both team and individual honors.

At La Jolla High, girls head coach Roger Karnopp saw his team go 4-2 last season, finishing third in the Western League and second in CIFs. Key members this season will include Nihal Kayali and Courtney Avvampato in the 1600 and 4x400 relay; Tess Plant-Thomas and Christie Richmond in the 800 and 4x400 relay; Nicole Bakke in the 400, 800 and 4x400 relay; Claire Mittermiller in the 800 and 4x400 relay; Kiley Henry in the 100, 200, 4x100 relay and long jump; Kenya Roberson in the 100, 200 and 4x100 relay; Rosie Jaye in the pole vault; Callan Parra in the 100, 200 and 4x100 relay; Heather Martin in the triple

jump; Ilanna Fricks and Zoe Wescoe in the 3200; and Vanora Guerard in the triple jump, long jump and 100 hurdles.

“The other week we defeated Point Loma 86-50, which was a great start considering we were without seven members of the team that were still playing soccer,” Karnopp noted.

Karnopp believes the team’s two toughest meets will be Cathe-

dral this week and Scripps Ranch next week.

“It will be a very exciting season for all and fun to see all of them develop and improve,” Karnopp added. “It would be nice to place in the top five in CIF.” On the boys side, new head coach Anthony Pollard leads a squad that is rebuilding (4-2 last season) in hopes of winning the Western League title with participating seniors, a large contingency of underclassmen and freshmen performers.

“We have strength in every event,” Pollard said.

Relays in track are the evidence of teamwork. La Jolla relays 4x100 and 4x400 are planning to win league.

Top returning performers include Jose Aviles (personal best CIF qualifying marks: shotput 55’ 8” averages +50’ on every throw, SEE TRACK, Page 4

Supes pick up slack in state water testing $$

BY ADRIANE TILLMAN | VILLAGE NEWS

The cleanliness of beach water will continue to be monitored following the County Board of Supervisors’ unanimous vote to pay for a scaled-down version of the program on March 24.

Supervisor Greg Cox urged the board to fork out $150,000 to monitor beach water from April 1 to Oct. 31 after the state cut off money to counties for testing due to the freezing of Prop. 13 funding. In 2000, voters had approved

Prop. 13 to sell $1.97 billion in bonds for clean water purposes.

The county will only sample water at 19 shoreline sites weekly instead of the previous 57 sites, when the state spent $302,000 on the program. The county chose specific sites for continued testing where bacteria levels had exceeded state standards in the past as well as ones that are popular and used most often.

Principal-sharing plan sparks protest Rec centers, sports clubs strive Parents, staff and students criticize busing cuts, too

to serve tweens this summer

BY ALYSSA RAMOS | VILLAGE NEWS

BY SEBASTIAN RUIZ | VILLAGE NEWS

Bird Rock and Pacific Beach elementary schools, and about 20 other schools that have fewer than 500 students, will be sharing principals if a plan adopted by the San Diego Unified School District’s (SDUSD) board of trustees comes to fruition. The plan, adopted earlier this month, also eliminates magnet school busing and increases class sizes, among other measures trustees said will save the district an estimated $34 million.

Dawna Deatrick, president of Friends of Pacific Beach Elementary, said PB Elementary School’s staff, part-time counselor and part-time nurse already fulfill multiple roles. Cutting a principal’s time would affect the school’s organization, Deatrick said.

“Without a principal,” she said, “there’s nobody to lead the school.”

Lisa Bonebrake, a member of Bird Rock Elementary School’s Parent Committee, said “half-time principals” are lawsuits waiting to happen.

“Should there be any… other emergency, we will have no principal, vice principal or counselor on site,” Bonebrake said.

By law, there must be a designated contact person at the school for emergencies, according to school board officials.

The school board made the

decision to divide principals’ time without consulting principals or parents, Bonebrake said.

She said the community will help find better options so “we can keep our principals.”

Bonebrake joined more than 100 students, parents, principals and administrators March 24 at the SDUSD board meeting at the Eugene Brucker Education Center on Normal Street to protest the elimination of student busing to magnet schools and the plan to consolidate principals.

Sunset View Elementary School Principal Linda Parker said principals develop relationships with students, staff and parent organizations. She said dividing a principal’s time between two schools would affect quality of education and those relationships.

“The reality is that a principal of two schools… will be at each school less than half time, yet

remain responsible for both full time,” Parker told trustees during Tuesday’s meeting.

Barnard Elementary is a magnet school with fewer than 400 students. The district currently buses students from across the district because some parents can’t transport their children.

“If the buses stop, the options stop,” Barnard Principal Edward Park said.

But while options for students and families are under threat, the SDUSD Board of Education seems to have plenty of options.

Instead of sending pink slips to teachers and possibly rescinding them later, the board proposed the cuts to programs such as magnet school busing, according to SDUSD board member John de Beck, who represents schools in many of the beach communities.

He said the board decided on SEE PLAN, Page 6

Concerned about her “tween’s” future, one local mother e-mailed La Jolla Village News regarding La Jolla’s apparent drop-off in athletic programs for kids reaching life’s “in-between stage.”

With summertime around the corner, parents want to plan safe activities for their children.

While La Jolla Recreation Center previously provided summer camps for older kids, most programs focus on children ages 2 to 9, said Diane Brittingham, La Jolla Recreation Center director. Brittingham said the center offers a few summer camps for older “tweens” – a term coined in the 1950s targeting clothing for girls ages 11 to 14; popular culture recently adopted the term, mostly for the age group 9 to 13, blending the meanings of “between” and “teen.” According to various Internet dictionaries, the awkward inbetween time refers to “tween” girls that are “too old for toys but too young for boys.”

“The 9- to 16-year-olds need places to ‘be’ down here in Bird Rock and La Jolla, other than the malls,” said the mother, who asked not to be identified.

She said she raised three children in the area, but was forced to drive through La Jolla’s busy “Throat” intersection to the YMCA, one of the few centers providing sports recreation for middleschoolers, she said.

“This is the first year I’ve seen

parents ask in early March, ‘Where’s your summer brochure?’”

Brittingham said, adding that she quickly completed the summer 2009 list of summer camps much earlier than usual.

Depending on the child’s age and flexibility of dates, parents sending their child to summer programs can pay anywhere from about $100 to more than $500 weekly.

La Jolla Sports Club’s Maggie Connor said she’s offering a summer jazz dance and boot camp for tweens ages 10 to 17 for three weeks, Tuesday through Thursday, July 7 to 23.

“From noon to 1 [p.m.] we have jazz class and then a boot camp… and then we have a run at La Jolla Cove and then we swim the Cove, and then finish with lunch,” Connor said, adding that parents can drop their kids off at 11:45 a.m. at La Jolla Sports Club and pick them up by 4 p.m. “Thursdays are different — they will start with extreme legs, a full body workout, and then a jazz class and then activities outdoors.”

Connor’s program costs $100 daily, $300 weekly, or $285 for early registration before July 7. For more information or to register, call (858) 220-6463 or e-mail balletemail@aol.com.

Beginning this July, La Jolla Tennis Club will offer an all-day tennis camp for ages 6 through 13 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. for about $275 each week, said La Jolla Tennis Club head pro Brent Davis. According to Davis, tennis tweens will perSEE TWEENS, Page 6

discus 156’), Matt Petch (shotput/discus), Jeremy McGrath (personal best CIF qualifying mark: pole vault 14’7”), sprinters (100, 200, 400 races) Dylan Cox, Alan Ampudia, Alex D’amico, Daniel Chiu; 300 IM hurdles members Dylan Boyce and Sri Reddy; distance members (800m, 1600m, 3200m races) Michael Conroy, Bryant Hammershaimb, Dylan Colburn and Andrew Farkas.

At The Bishop’s School, head coach April Guinchard saw the girls go undefeated last season in Coastal League action to capture the title for the third straight year, while the boys finished third.

The girls look to be paced this season by distance runners Laura Wyatt, Elizabeth Schulze, Alicia Triana and Naomi Wagner. These girls, along with Lauren Collins, were part of Bishop’s Conference championship and CIF runner-up cross country team. Wyatt won the conference last year in the 800 and the 1600 and holds the school record in these events (2:22 and 5:11, respectively). Wagner finished second in the conference in the 3200, while Collins finished second in the 1600 and third in

the 800 in conference action.

Guinchard also looks for Michelle Wu and Cara Chesney to run well.

Taylor Maxey returns this year for the discus and shotput, finishing second in the shotput and discus last year in the conference behind LaTreace Johnson.

Hurdlers Frances Harvey, Madison Maxey and Serena Glynn will be returning as well. Harvey finished first in the conference in the 300m hurdles and second in the 100s.

“Long and triple jumpers Amy Hoagland and Alyssa Morgosh should have strong showings this year as well,” Guinchard noted.

According to coach Jim Green, the coaching staff is especially excited about the extremely strong group of freshmen sprinters the Lady Knights have this year.

“We should have extraordinary 4x100 and 4x400 relay teams,” Green remarked.

Three of the four members of the 4x400 that won the conference last year and finished fifth in CIFs return in Wyatt, Collins and Glynn.

On the boys side, sprinter Alfredo Corral returns. Corral won the conference in the 400 (50.45) and finished second in the 200 (23.37) while also anchoring the winning 4x400 as well.

“Alfredo is running stronger

NEWS than last year and should easily break 50 [seconds] this season,” Guinchard said.

Senior Henry Su returns this year, having last year set the school record in the 3200-meter run in 10:27.

“Along with Su, sophomore Chris Kuntz and freshman Will Botta will be two distance runners to watch,” Coach Steve Brown noted.

As a freshman, Botta qualified for the state cross country meet this past fall.

Triple Jumper Peter Bestoso (personal record 40’ 8.5”) returns, having finished second in the conference last year.

At La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School, the boys finished at 9-0 last season, while the girls were 5-3.

Alex Poyhonen (3200 Division II champion) returns to lead the distance team, while Trisha Decker returns to defend her pole vault title.

Some key members this season include the distance team of Poyhonen, Dennis Roth, Alex Fleischhacker, Lee Klitzner, Jake Mack, Noah Wolfenzon and Nolan Kulik.

The sprint/relays will be led by Sage Hagstrom, Mike Salas, Montell Allen, Elliot Ashworth, Chase Mertz, Ryan French, Max Rudolph

and Zack Wolfenzon. The jumps will be paced by Mason BoxerCapitano, Mitch Amelio, Alberto Yanez and Alistair Dobke.

In the pole vault, look for Jason McCallum, French, Phillip Poyhonen and Nahiro Kawada to lead the way, while the throws will be headed by Steven Fackler, Junior Togiaso, Andrew Hill, Indi Lavarias, Eric Blodgett and Ian Han. On the girls side, LJCD will look to distance runner Sam Staszak, sprint/relay members Maya Hood, Malina Hood, Kayla Miller, Kaitlin McCallum, Rebecca Gomez, Kimberly Roesler and Alexis Samuels to lead the way. The jumps will be led by Courtney Rockwood and Kira Mesman-Hallman, while the pole vault will be led by Tricia Decker and Kaitlin McCallum.

Look for Claire Altree to lead the throws competition.

“The team performed well against their first two opponents, Calvin Christian and Tri-City Christian,” Coach Kevin Reaume said.

“Both teams got out of the blocks 2-0. This is one of Country Day’s largest track and field teams at 54 student-athletes. With those numbers, the men’s team should compete for their fourth consecutive title, while the women’s team feels they are in the race.” n

TESTING CONTINUED FROM Page 1

Torrey Pines (Penasquitos Lagoon outlet). Along Mission Bay, the county will test water for total coliform, fecal coliform and enterococci at six sites: Tecolote (playground watercraft area), Leisure Lagoon, Visitors Center (shoreline), De Anza Cove (swim area), Campland and Bonita Cove eastern shore. In Pacific Beach, water testing will continue at Tourmaline. In Ocean Beach, the county will test at the San Diego River outlet. Along San Diego Bay, water will be monitored at Shelter Island and Tidelands Park (Coronado bayside).

“Environmental health executives have analyzed the data and concluded with confidence that reduced testing will still meet the threshold required to protect the public health,” Cox wrote in a March 16 letter to the board urging them to fund the program.

Once the state releases funding for the beach water monitoring, the county plans to re-evaluate the program to determine whether to return to testing 57 sites or continue the abridged version.

The county cannot accept all the responsibility for the beach watermonitoring program, Cox stated in his letter to the board. He said the county must “engage the coastal cities, the Unified Port of San Diego and agencies that discharge wastewater in discussions leading to development of a formula for shared funding responsibility.”

Cox also wrote that the county would not permanently pick up the slack for the state, and that it is not the county's business practice to "backfill programmatic funding eliminated by the State."

County Supervisor Pam SlaterPrice had originally said the supervisors would not fund the program.

However, she has since been reassured that the state would return the funding, pending the sale of the bond, after Cox discussed the issue with the State Water Resources Control Board in Sacramento.

“We don't see it as a backfill but more as a bridge loan in order to not miss a window of opportunity,” Slater-Price said. “Spring break is here, the weather is warming up and everyone is heading to the beach.” n

Council restores trashcans in LJ, OB Copper thief gets six years in prison

BY ALYSSA RAMOS | VILLAGE NEWS

Despite a March 4 release by San Diego City Council members announcing that city crews replaced seven of 28 recently removed beach-area garbage containers, some coastal residents continue their cries, asking the city to replace the remaining missing receptacles – pointing to a buildup of beachside trash.

“People on Camino de la Costa are very concerned because they’re still seeing trash build up,” said La Jollan Cynthia Chasan.

Chasan formed a plan last month that would replace La Jolla’s missing trashcans through a state grant and use the area’s business improvement district – Promote La Jolla (PLJ) — for service.

According to Chasan, the State of California froze grant funds — and La Jolla’s plan to replace its trashcans. So, a group of community leaders began meeting regarding La Jolla’s trash crisis, Chasan said.

“In the Barber Tract [area] we had six removed and three replaced, but they didn’t replace any on Camino de la Costa,” Chasan said.

City crews took seven seagullproof garbage cans from nearby beaches “where cans were abundant,” according to John Rivera, communications director for San Diego City Councilwoman Sherri Lightner, and replaced cans in La Jolla, Bird Rock and Ocean Beach.

All together, city crews replaced five trashcans in La Jolla: at Spindrift Drive; Marine Street; 300 Sea Lane; 300 Vista de La Playa; and at Searidge Drive in Bird Rock – also known as the staircase, according to Tony Manolatos, communications director for District 2 Councilman Kevin Faulconer.

In addition, city staff said the mayor’s office ordered city crews to replace two more Ocean Beach trashcans, at 5000 Santa Cruz Avenue and Bermuda Avenue, according to Manolatos.

According to city staff, the mayor’s office chose sites and implemented the program.

Rivera said that according to a mayoral memo, the 28 trashcans were removed to cut costs last year amid a midyear budget reduction.

But city crews did not remove the beachside cans until the first week of January 2009.

And then, according to the document, seven trashcans were replaced, “where the public has direct safe access to the beach below the site of the receptacle,” Rivera related.

Manolatos said OB residents — nine of the 28 trashcans were originally taken from OB — continue to work with staff from Faulconer’s office in an effort to replace missing beachside garbage cans. And staff from Lightner’s office said they are working with her constituents to replace La Jolla’s missing cans.

Chasan said she continues to meet with La Jolla residents in an effort to work with city officials before the summertime, when crowds flock to La Jolla’s beaches, she said.

“We got it to the 50-yard line but definitely did not hit a home run,” Chasan said.

While representatives from Lightner’s office said they were working with La Jolla residents in an effort to further replace missing cans, Manolatos said his office continues to work with Ocean Beach constituents affected by that area’s missing garbage cans. n

Sharing principals, he said, is “impractical” at some small schools like Bird Rock Elementary. The school is close to capacity with more that 400 students.

He added that the school board should determine which schools share principals on a case-by-case basis instead of all small schools bearing the brunt.

Getting rid of magnet school busing, de Beck added, may require canceling entire magnet programs at schools that bus in a large number of students.

He must also pay $90K restitution to three school districts

BY NEAL PUTNAM | VILLAGE NEWS

A Del Cerro man who stole copper wiring from schools in Ocean Beach, the Midway area and other campuses received six years in state prison and was ordered to pay nearly $90,000 in restitution to three school districts.

Jason Warren Tait, 32, was silent before San Diego Superior Court Judge David Danielsen sentenced him at the end of 2008, but Tait has admitted to stealing copper wiring from 16 different schools, including three cases he was not charged with, according to his probation report.

Danielsen denied a request for probation, but recommended Tait be admitted to the California Rehabilitation Center (CRC) in Norco in Riverside County for a drug treatment program. It is a state prison but has the world’s largest substance abuse program for people in custody, including vocational programs.

Tait told officials he made $3,500 a month from the stolen copper wiring that he sold to a metal recycling center. Much of the profit went to buy methamphetamine, which Tait admitted to using daily. His attorney, James Pasto, recommended the CRC commitment.

Deputy District Attorney Stephanie Chow said Tait’s sentence was “a fairly common sentence for drug addicts.” The sentence includes a provision that if CRC determines he is not a drug addict, he can return to court to be sentenced again.

The probation report notes that Tait took 975 feet of copper wiring on May 18 from Silver Gate Elementary School in Ocean Beach.

The school’s cost for repairs and replacing the cable was more than $7,100.

Tait also took 2,000 feet of copper wiring from Correia Middle School on March 17. Repairs and cable replacement were listed at more than $27,300, the report said.

Danielsen ordered Tait to repay the San Diego Unified School District nearly $61,000. He also ordered Tait to repay more than $23,000 to the La Mesa School

Tait ... did not target high schools because he thought there were security cameras in use.

District and $5,500 to the Cajon Valley Union School District.

Danielsen fined Tait $1,360 and gave him credit for 235 days served in jail.

Tait told officials he used the Internet to locate the addresses for elementary and middle schools but did not target high schools because he thought there were security cameras in use. Tait also said he used the Google Earth program to study the physical layout of the schools he wished to steal copper from.

Tait would usually cut through chains and padlocks on security fencing at night, climbing on the roofs to steal the wiring.

Most of the schools lost electrical power after he cut the wiring.

He said he was never questioned by anyone at metal recycling companies over how he obtained so much wiring.

He said he always worked alone in the thievery cases, although he did work once with his brother, Aaron Charles Tait, 31. Both men were arrested by La Mesa police last July after they entered La Mesa Middle School grounds.

Officers found the brothers had removed 250 feet of wiring from an electrical panel. Aaron Tait pleaded guilty to grand theft and is serving a 16-month prison term.

Jason Tait pleaded guilty Nov. 25 to eight counts of grand theft and eight other charges were dropped. He pleaded guilty with a procedural waiver that allowed the judge to order restitution that included the dismissed charges.

Effective Jan. 1, state law now requires scrap-metal recyclers to take the thumbprint of anyone attempting to sell copper wiring.

Sellers must also now present a picture ID and a valid address before receiving payment for the copper wiring. n

OPINION Declining social capital disconnects family, friends and neighborhoods 8

THURSDAY · MARCH 26, 2009 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

ne would think a wellplanned and advertised community association meeting in a local school auditorium featuring a new city councilperson willing to hear community concerns would draw a big crowd.

Presumably, the school auditorium would be filled on a Wednesday night in the neighborhood. In truth, only 39 people showed up for the University City Community Association (UCCA) general meeting with District 1 Councilwoman Sherri Lightner on a recent March Wednesday. Included in the 39 were eight members of the UCCA board.

Although the turnout was a great disappointment, this small turnout gave credence to Professor Robert Putnam’s theory in his book, “Bowling Alone.” Putnam is a public policy professor at Harvard. According to Putnam, in the last 25 years, there have been dramatic, declining social capital trends. Attending club meetings, like the example of the UCCA meeting, has seen a 58 percent drop; family dinners have seen a 43 percent drop, and having friends over has seen a 35 percent drop. The humorous title of

O

A View from Route 52

By Sandy Lippe

his book deals with social capital and how social networks have real value. People used to bowl in leagues, and now people bowl alone. People used to go to meetings; now they stay home.

Putnam shows how we have become increasingly disconnected from family, friends, neighbors and our democratic structures.

He promises the reader it is easy and critical to reconnect. “The very fabric of our connections with each other has plummeted, impoverishing our lives and communities,” according to Putnam.

Andy Freeburn, UCCA president and former chair of U.C. Celebration, said, “Unfortunately, most residents of any community

only rally around a cause. It is funny that over 400 people stopped by Forum Hall in UTC on Tuesday, the night before the UCCA meeting, to cast a vote for a position with only a 1/12 influence on an advisory committee, voting for University City Planning Group members. Yet UCCA couldn’t get more than about 30 residents to spend an hour with their City Council representative. If you advertise a crisis that directly and personally affects the locals, there would have been standing room only. Next time I suggest the following topics: Thunderbirds to participate with Blue Angels in this year’s air show or Governor Drive will be closed Friday nights for street racing.”

Here’s another hot-button issue this writer thinks would draw a crowd: Seals, accompanied by their lawyers, will be featured speakers and tell their story about Children’s Pool Beach.

U.C. Planning Group members have strong views on the proposed Regents Road Bridge, which was supported by former City Councilman Scott Peters, who got most City Council members to vote in favor of the bridge, with

Toni Atkins and Donna Frye dissenting. Litigation is holding up the bridge building. Lightner, our current City Council representative and featured speaker, campaigned against it. For those people filling seats at Standley Middle School auditorium on March 11, she gave her reasons why.

Regents Road Bridge will not solve a traffic problem on Genesee, she said. Instead Lightner wants to synchronize traffic lights on Genesee in order to speed up traffic. She endorsed a pedestrian bridge at Governor and Genesee intersection; this would accommodate the children and seniors who use this tough crossing. Her third suggestion was reinstating a fire station in South U.C. Yes, there once was one next to Curie School. It was relocated far north to Eastgate Mall. Putnam’s “social capital” reconnected some residents to U.C. Planning group for the vote but kept them disconnected from the meeting with their civic association.

In another matter, UCCA newsletter delivery chair Mary Kay Hewitt, who could serve as the poster child for community involvement for decades, is

awestruck by the number of volunteers she has who deliver a monthly newsletter to residents.

She counts more than 100 people walking their neighborhood delivering a homegrown, volunteerwritten account of what’s happening locally, listing activities and youth success stories.

One wonders how much the global financial crisis stems from a loss of social capital, that disconnection from friends and family, communities and clubs. We are reading about greed and selfishness, entitlements and more greed. Individuals are accumulating millions in bonuses, rewarded for failure in reality. We sit in our own homes and worry about our future and our country’s future.

Perhaps we should get out, get together, plan a block party, get involved in community activities like the popular University City Celebration that has been a July 4 tradition over two decades. Its next planning meeting is Tax Day, April 15, at 6:30 p.m. at Standley Recreation Center, 3585 Governor Drive. Cathy Romanas is chairing the event for the first time and would love to have your social capital invested in this activity. n

Animal activists driving up the costs Several writers took issue with my assessment of Ms. Sherri Lightner’s efforts to preserve the Children’s Pool for children in the March 12 issue of the Village News. They are entitled to their opinions, but should not be allowed to alter documented

facts. Mr. Myers questioned the number of children in San Diego County. The actual figure from the U.S. Census Bureau, based on the population in San Diego County for 2007, is 740,000 children.

Perhaps I should have used the estimated number of children in the City of San Diego, 308.000.

The number of children denied access to this small swimming beach swamps the 100 or so seals typically using the Children’s Pool for hauling out.

Mr. Fraser believes he has a keen sense of humor and wants to know how 700,000 kids could fit on Children’s Pool beach. No one would try to put 700,000 kids on this pocket beach nor would they try to put 35,000 harbor seals on it, which is the harbor seal population currently residing in southern California.

Mr. Fraser erroneously cites the million-dollar price tag trumpeted by activists to ”dredge the beach.”

The term “dredge” does not appear in Judge William C. Pate’s 2005 court decision, in O’Sullivan v City of San Diego, which ordered “The City, as trustee of the Children’s Pool, is hereby ordered to employ all reasonable means to restore the Pool to its 1941 condition by removing the sand build-up and further to reduce the level of water contami-

The directive doesn’t mention seals. It doesn’t specify the method of removing sand. The central directive is that the water should be made “safe for humans.” The city appealed the decision to the Fourth Division 1 of the Court of Appeals. The appeal lost. It was then appealed

to the California Supreme Court, where it also lost. The city now attempts to end-run these legal decisions by having the Tidelands Trust changed by the state legislature.

There were two early cost estimates to restore the Children’s Pool beach. In 1998, Coastal Environments, a local coastal engineering company, quoted a cost of $40,000 for removing sand via backhoe and disposal at the cityowned sanitary landfill. Testing Engineers, a professional engineering firm, proposed opening existing seawall sluiceways at a cost of $30,296 in 1998. Neither action would have required federal or state government approval.

Yet the city maintains the cost for sand removal would be an additional million dollars. Ask any reputable civil engineer; the million-dollar price tag is demonstrably high. It is the rise of “animal activism” which has caused the astronomical increase in the cost for restoring the Pool. The principal cost of pool restoration is not the work itself but rather litigation costs associated with the city vigorously defending a legally indefensible position.

I fully agree with Mr. Fraser’s suggestion to “Follow the money.”

Arthritis aid 2

In a sophisticated supper club setting, a black tie event was held for the Arthritis Foundation and particularly to honor its founder, Dr. Michael Keller. It was in 1979 that he perceived the need for the original medical clinic to treat the 50 percent of people who suffer the debilitating effects of many kinds of arthritis (it is estimated here are 100 types) on patients of all ages. In the ensuing years, he began holding free clinics for the uninsured, which continue to this day, currently with four spread throughout San Diego. The gala, titled “C’est Magnifique,” drew family, friends and many of his patients, among them vibrant Jenny Lewis who it turns out has undergone 38 surgeries over the years. Co-chairing the event were June Ash and Sandy Redman, whose husband, Allen Redman, who died barely a month before and was memorialized in the souvenir booklet. At the gala the auction was handled

by Joe Bauer, who also acted as master of ceremonies. Dinner and the preceding hors d’oeuvres at the reception were presented by the Hyatt’s always impeccable staff and, completing the evening in fine fashion, was one of the Wayne Foster groups. As for the organization that benefited from the evening, among its many services are land-based and aquatic exercise programs, tai chi classes and a lending library. For youngsters ages 8 to 17, there is a juvenile arthritis Joint Adventure Camp.

Indeed, c’est magnifique!

The sale of seal trinkets at the Children’s Pool by activists generated more than $308,000 in 2007 (see http://www.aprl.org/2007 APRL990.pdf). Who is benefiting from the seals? It is not the children of San Diego.

The next push by environmental activists is to change the name of Children’s Pool to Seal Beach to atone for perceived sins against nature. Mr. Fraser seeks to do this by changing a fundamental Christian teaching found in Genesis

9:2-3: “Dread fear of you shall come upon all the animals of the earth and all the birds of the air, upon all the creatures that move about on the ground and all the fishes of the sea; into your power they are delivered. Every creature that is alive shall be yours to eat.”

What these activists are doing is illegal by both the laws of man and of God. They may be successful in coercing our legislature, but hopefully not faithful Christians and Jews.

Lacrosse teams swing for CIP championships

BY DAVE THOMAS | VILLAGE NEWS

The local scholastic lacrosse season has swung into action for a number of area teams.

On the girls side, La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School looks to improve on last season’s losing record with Roya Bagheri, Liv Hipkins, Veronica Lee, Jodi Morris, Lani Frankville and Ariana Elegado (hurt as of last week) leading the charge.

Head coach Dave Jenkins noted that this is Country Day’s fourth year with a girls lacrosse program.

“We’re excited about having our first graduating class of seniors who have been with the program for all four years of their Country Day experience,” Jenkins commented. “Improvement has been steady over the years and I think we have a team that will be better and more competitive. The girls have been working hard, are off to a good start and excited about the season.”

Jenkins is also working this season for the first time with assistant coach Karen Elitzky.

“I am excited to have Karen join the team,” Jenkins said. “She brings high school and collegiate experience to the team and the very valuable perspective of an on-campus coach.”

At The Bishop’s School, head coach Meghan Carr and the Lady Knights finished 12-7-1 a season ago, sharing the Coastal League crown at 9-1 with Francis Parker.

While losing Emily Johnson

and Jacqueline Rhodes to graduation, Bishop’s will look to Ali Bishop, Jameson Kearney, Camilla Johnston, Hillary Halter and Sophia Muller to lead the way.

“My expectation for the team is to play as a whole to accomplish a Coastal League title,” Carr remarked. “We are coming into the season late compared to the rest of the teams, as we were on spring break and the overlap with soccer. We need to focus on improving our speed and endurance in order to make our goals. Many of our eight seniors have played together since seventh grade and have been on the varsity team since their freshman year. This is their senior year and with their energy and skill, I have no doubt they will be strong leaders.”

At neighboring La Jolla High School, new head coach Jenn Tapscott and the Lady Vikings will look to keep a winning tradition going, finishing 18-11 a season ago.

Some key players to watch this season include midfielders Mackenzie Gloven, Annette Pulliam, Margaret Nettleton and Ellie Wheeler; defender Mika Marsh; attackers Sarah Shigley and Cami Felt; and goalie Anjali Thota.

“This year’s team is comprised of a senior class who encompasses the talent needed for success,” Tapscott commented. “Their leadership skills and drive to achieve great things has trickled down throughout the younger players and has made others do

more than they thought they could accomplish. La Jolla is also blessed with a very talented freshmen class whose desire to win will separate them from other teams in years to come.”

On the boys side, The Bishop’s School went 12-6 last season and finished seventh in San Diego County for head coach Steve Sepata.

Key players for the Knights this year include Jack Kelly (goalie), Nick Eggemeyer (defense), both Mike Jensens (midfield) and Trevor Gudim (attack).

“We have a strong senior class and several young guys that we expect to contribute this season,” Sepata said. “At this point, we are taking things one day at a time.”

At La Jolla Country Day School, the Torreys under head coach Mike Tobey were 2-13 a season ago.

This year’s team will look to Jason McCallum (midfield), Patrick Taron (attack) and Patrick Butler (face-off/attack) to lead the way.

“The season is already under way and we are off to a good start at 3-1,” Tobey remarked. “We expect to be a much tougher opponent in league play this year.

A group of our core guys that have been moving up in the system are finally juniors this year.

Still, we have only one senior, so we think that our best seasons are yet to come.”

At La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School, veteran head coach Angela Horacek will look to the likes of Daniel Faierman, Warren Wood, Eric Miller, Alex Mirbod, Sean Taylor, Conner Jacobs, Adam Klinefeld, Max Ferre and Peter Alexander to lead the way.

“The boys have high expectations for this season,” Horacek noted.

LJCD, which is currently on spring break, opened its season with wins over San Pasqual, Army/Navy, Cathedral and Brophy College Prep, while losing to Francis Parker, Corona del Mar and Seattle Prep.

At La Jolla High School, head coach Tom Andrews and the Vikings went unbeaten last season in Western League play and captured a CIF Division III crown with a victory over Cathedral in the finals.

“This year, we have the same basic team, with the exception of Kyle Van Buskirk who graduated last year,” Andrews commented.

“We have two injured players, which obviously weakens the team, but the Vikings are deep with talent and can overcome. I believe the team really needs to focus on their goal, and they want to win the CIFs again. Every player on our squad will be needed.”

Andrews will look to Michael

Rabinivich, Sean Rodriguez, Niko Karnopp, Johnathon Lo and Daniel Lapidus to lead the way.

“Erwin Hernandez, Blake Cummings, Jerry Lin, Chris Langbort, Harper Allen, William Zhang, Max Einhorn and Austin Wang are all very impressive and I am counting on all of them,” Andrews added.

La Jolla opens Western League play today, March 26 against Cathedral at home in a 3 p.m. match.

At The Bishop’s School, head coach Jose Ruelas and the Knights finished third in the Coastal League a season ago at 9-5, with an overall mark of 11-9. Bishop’s fell to La Jolla in the quarterfinals of the CIFs. Bishop’s returns 10 players from last year’s team, including starters and senior co-captains Peter Rokosz and Vasu Prathipati.

In singles play, Bishop’s expects solid results from Robert Xie, Armen Abagyan, Keaton Lipson and Brent Thomas.

“If we can get more wins with the two and three doubles teams, I feel we will be very competitive with all the teams in our league, which is one of the toughest in the county,” Ruelas noted.

As of last week, Bishop’s was 2-1 in play.

“Overall, we need to be more aggressive in our doubles play and have better results from our singles players,” Ruelas added. “We will get stronger as the season progresses due to the fact that we just returned from a two-week spring break.” n

An Innovative Solution to Do-it-Yourself Motorcycle Maintenance The newest concept in motorcycle maintenance has arrived.

Privateer’s Garage, located in San Diego, is the first business of its kind in Southern California to offer shared garage space with all the professional tools and equipment needed to maintain or repair your motorcycle, including fully stocked Matco toolboxes. Whether you own a sportbike, cruiser, ATV or an off-road motorcycle, Privateer’s Garage is the answer for those frustrated with lack of space and tools. Equipped with a tire changer, lifts, individual stalls with stands, factory maintenance manuals and a full selection of parts and equipment, motorcycle owners can use this garage space for

as little as $25 per hour. Monthly unlimited-use memberships are also available. Privateer’s Garage offers a variety of accessories and apparel by some of the industry’s

leading names. Tires, fluids, motorcycle accessories and parts are available at the garage location and online at privateersgarage.com.

Kyle Indermuehle, President, explains the concept behind Privateer’s Garage, “Being a motorcycle enthusiast myself, every time I worked on my bike doing oil changes, installing new tires, or prepping for a big trip, I was frustrated by not having enough space or a proper garage area to do the work. Inevitably, I wouldn’t have the right tool or part and would have to make one or several trips to a store to buy it. Another frustration was disposing of used oil and tires. This concept grew out of the thought that other people might like to have a proper garage facility to work on their bikes, too."

Privateer’s Garage gets its name from motorcyclists that, unlike the factory riders with big sponsors, pristine garage facilities and unlimited parts, work out of their garages on their own bikes. Now privateers can enjoy a factory garage-like setting that is affordable and fun.

“As someone who has attempted motorcycle maintenance in an apartment parking lot, I’ve longed

for a professional garage,” says Technology and Operations Chief, Josh Davis. “The facilities and equipment at Privateer’s Garage will make working on your motorcycle easy and fun.”

Privateer’s Garage is the answer to high priced and lengthy motorcycle repair and maintenance in a great atmosphere with professional equipment at reasonable rates.

Taste of the Triangle will flavor the spring

BY ALYSSA RAMOS | VILLAGE NEWS

EdUCate, the University City (UC) Foundation for Public Schools, will hold its 15th annual Taste of the Triangle Friday, April 3 from 6 to 11 p.m. at Hilton La Jolla Torrey Pines in an effort to raise funds to purchase laptop computers for UC schools. The event, which usually takes place in November, has moved to the spring.

This year’s Triangle tasters can try tempting morsels starting with a cocktail reception and silent auction in which bidders can choose from a variety of items, from artwork to sailing adventures, photography packages to a Border Patrol air facility tour and shooting lesson.

When bidding closes, attendees can taste gourmet samples from more than 20 area restaurants while listening to local entertainment and then dancing to a DJ, said Marge Lorang, EdUCate’s publicity chair.

The golf-themed event is both indoors and outdoors, complete with a putting green. EdUCate plans to raffle tickets to sink putts and other golf-themed prizes.

The previous Taste of the Triangle raised funds for document camera stations, and this year, Lorang said, EdUCate aims to raise money to buy computers compatible with those stations.

Müller and SD Opera: a reciprocal love affair

BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS

It could be a slight exaggeration, but let us say it anyway: San Diego Opera principal guest conductor Edoardo Müller is everyone’s favorite maestro. Asking others about him evokes a deluge of adjectives — analytical, approachable, caring, charming, delightful, ebullient, energetic, generous, knowledgeable, passionate and warm.

To hear him speak is to hear an art song, and when he raises his baton over the San Diego Symphony Orchestra, listeners are imbued with centuries of tradition, so steeped is he in Italian operatic literature.

To the delight of San Diego Opera audiences, Maestro Müller has returned all but one

season since he made his conducting debut with “Giovanna d’Arco (Joan of Arc)” in 1980.

“In spite of my name, I am full Italian,” says the maestro, who was born in Trieste and lives at least three months each year at the Milano home he shares with his wife, Giovanna, and at their home in the Italian Riviera. Nearby are grown children and three grandchildren.

He speaks of his loved ones bel canto, and it is apparent that music and family are his life. “‘Giovanna d’Arco’ was my American debut,” he says. “The conductor should have been Giovanni Gavazzoni, but he cancelled no more than a couple of weeks before the production.”

Indie Music Fest: bigger & better than ever

BY BART MENDOZA | VILLAGE NEWS

Though in existence only since 2004, San Diego’s Indie Music Fest has blossomed into one of the area’s premiere annual music and arts festivals. Started as a grassroots effort to promote independent artists, the event was held for the first two years at a converted church — The Abbey, in

Hillcrest — but quickly outgrew the building. Indie Music Fest now takes place in the heart of North Park, with performances centered around an outdoor stage at University Avenue and 29th Street.

Organized by local musicians Danielle Lo Presti and Alicia Champion, the event now regularly attracts more than a thousand applicants from around the

world, vying for the 80 spots on its seven stages. In a unique move to expose as many artists to as large an audience as possible, three free stages are open to the public, with an event pass allowing access to four additional venues.

coming along very well. “America is doing good things for the new generation. I cannot say the same thing for other states [countries].”

Müller, who has been director for two years of La Scala’s school for young artists, said that there the good singers must make their debuts in other theaters and then return to La Scala. “Here? No. They are well supported and they have many chances. If someone is a talented singer with a good technique, a good musicality and a good instinct for acting, he can be sure to have a career in America.”

The 2008 season worldwide marked the 150th anniversary of Giacomo Puccini’s birth. Müller conducted lots of Puccini in the States, including a “Boheme” in Orange County and “Butterflys” in Cincinnati and Detroit. During the 2009 season in San Diego, he conducts three Italian operas: “Tosca,” “Rigoletto” and “Madama Butterfly.” He returns to conduct “Nebuchadnezzar” in 2010.

Müller remarked that his public in San Diego is different from that in other countries, to say nothing of La Scala, where boos and catcalls are commonplace. “I think in San Diego people are always too nice… Sometimes I would appreciate a more severe reaction.”

It’s likely that we will continue to reap benefits from Müller’s presence for many years to come.

At 74 he is in robust, good health.

“I feel the energy, the love and desire to do better and better,” he said. “My wife and the theater are the main reasons for this.”

celled or curtailed due to the economy, Lo Presti is confident this year’s fest will surpass last year’s tally of 6,000 attendees.

“With the recession, I’d like to think that things like the three free stages will bring out fans of the arts,” she said.

The event now attracts sponsors ranging from 91X-FM Radio to Reel Picture CD Manufacturers, but the early days were lean.

“It almost killed us to keep it going in the first few years,” Lo Presti said. “It was just a colossal test of will.”

Though it’s still hard work, the picture has improved.

“We’re seeing more people coming to us than ever before,” Lo Presti said. “This is very rewarding, however not that surprising, because in a matter of about a year, a huge change has taken place in our collective perception.”

She considers the recent election of President Obama a positive move for artists.

“We are a country that has seen a presidential candidate earn millions from $5 donations.

All of a sudden, what we’ve been preaching about, the often-overlooked value of the independents, is no longer a hard sell,” she said.

In addition to music, Indie Music Fest is also expanding its events in the fields of dance, spoken word and photography.

“Our short-form mission is ‘celebrating and supporting independent music, film, art, business and thought,’ so the other artistic and activist elements of the festival are exceedingly important,”

COLDWELL BANKER

Lo Presti noted. “Every year, we try to grow those elements. In 2007 we added film; last year we put three nonprofits we felt were undeniably important onstage prior to the headliner, speaking for three minutes each, about what they do.”

For 2009, additions include Tim Flack’s music photography exhibit “Anything for the Shot,” visual art by The Storefront, a homeless teens art program, and more dance.

“All of these art forms,” Lo Presti said, “serve to inspire and enlighten us and thus serve as fuel for all the other things we expect ourselves to do each and every day.”

While there is much for arts lovers to get excited about at the festival, the musicians involved are also thrilled.

“We’re definitely hanging out for the whole day and night,” said Anne-Marie Cullen, of Los Angeles-based group Saucy Monkey.

“We had such a blast last year hanging out after our show that we’re not driving back; we’re going to stay over.”

According to Champion, organizing the event is a year-round process for her and Lo Presti, with staff of several dozen assembled about four months prior to showtime. A crew of 300 volunteers rounds out with the staff on event day.

Though putting the festival together is a hard process, with endless hours of paper work and little sleep, the rewards are many.

Indie Music Fest takes place on Saturday, March 28, from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. All ages are welcome.

Las Patronas philanthropic organization started donating funding for UC schools’ computers. “…We just found out that we received a grant from Las Patronas for 10 computers for $13,000,” Lorang said.

The cost of one laptop computer is $1,300, according to an EdUCate document. This year, in addition to the event’s fund-raising goals, organization officials said they would focus on funding laptops using “Fund an Item.” During the event, attendees can donate part or all of the money associated with purchasing a laptop, the document stated.

The organization added several items to this year’s silent auction list, Lorang said.

“There’s a kitchen designer from La Jolla who has donated a new kitchen remodel,” Lorang said.

“She’s prescreening anyone interested in that. It’s worth about $50,000 — the minimum bid is $20,000.”

Anther item new to this year’s auction list, Lorang said, is a behind-the-scenes jail tour and lunch with Sheriff Bill Kolender.

Lorang said another unusual

item slipped under the radar last year — a Border Patrol air facility helicopter tour with a shooting lesson.

“The people who did it last year had a lot of fun,” Lorang said. “His name is Dean Williams. The tour takes about eight hours. He’s a helicopter pilot for [the Border Patrol] and he shows them around and lets them shoot a gun.”

During the event, attendees can sample food from any of 21 participating restaurants, including Barolo Ristorante Italiano, Barona Valley Ranch Resort and Casino, Cal-a-Vie Health Spa, Donovan’s Steak and Chop House, Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar, Forbidden Yogurt, Harry’s Bar and American Grill, Infusions of Tea, Ki Ku Ya Sushi, Kitchen 1540, La Jolla Brew House, Leucadia Pizzeria, Lorna’s Italian Kitchen, The French Gourmet, The Marine Room, The Melting Pot, Miami Grille, P.F.

ically designated properties from the 1920s feature a garden that complements their homes’ classic Mediterranean and Spanish architectural styles. Finally, a meandering pathway will lead you into a secluded hillside/canyon garden that features fruit trees, herbs and other natural plantings that were all carefully chosen to complement the environment.

Besides the self-guided tour, there is also a Platinum Tour, which includes the seven gardens plus a very special oceanfront garden that will be open for this special tour only. On the special Platinum Tour, buses will transport you to the garden locations and brunch will be served at the Darlington House, one of La Jolla’s treasured historic sites.

Besides the lovely gardens, you will also be treated to designers’ imaginative table settings and displays in each garden as well as music provided by myriad musicians. Artists will also be painting scenes, and one of the paintings from this year’s tour will be chosen to grace the 2010 garden tour poster and program.

This year’s poster and program features a charming hummingbird painting by artist Jane Fletcher that she painted in an Upper Hermosa garden during last year’s tour.

Changing perspectives to appreciation A child’s world is not much beyond that of the parents, the nursery, the play group; it’s a narrow world. The teenager’s world becomes a bit larger; it mostly comprises school, friends, phones, TVs, music, athletic events. The adult’s world is largest — it can encompass everything and anything, from work and travel to involvement in one’s community, in one’s society, in world affairs.

An older person can remain active and interested and interesting by pursuing varied interests or allow their world to shrink as one moves out of broad activities into only those concerning one’s health, one’s comfort, a couple of friends and what’s for dinner!

As the minutiae of daily life is all there is, the importance of what’s on your plate and the time it takes to get there becomes magnified.

Not only is the world getting narrower, the feelings of entitlement get magnified. The child wants his meal or toy right now.

The adolescent does not understand why he or she can’t have

responsibilities or irresponsible children, a home to keep up, meals to prepare or volunteering commitments, life’s small inconveniences were thrust into the background.

With all of the above not an issue anymore, these small inconveniences take on a life of their own and become the main preoccupation. It is similar to people on holiday where they fuss and nitpick about everything, not having the real world to deal with.

The feeling of entitlement is the car tonight and the senior also exacerbated by the inevitable person wants immediate gratifilosses incurred in older age: cation, with no patience for a whether it is some impairment of slower response to one’s needs. I see this in our dining room at our one or more of the senses, such as sight or hearing, or loss of a retirement community where people get very upset if something friend or family member; this is not served right away, as if they deprivation is also coupled with changes in the brain.

inappropriate comments or rattling on for far too long about events in one’s past.

On the other hand, there are also those people who appreciate more than ever every day they’re alive, grateful for the sun, for the friends, good health — theirs and family’s — for an ice cream cone, a fun movie, an evening out, appreciating all the small events that make up our days.

How to strike a more balanced perspective? Thinking about the incongruities of living with everything done for us in a beautiful place and a responsive staff and still finding things to complain about while the rest of the world is suffering from famine, floods, fires and earthquakes, not to

mention wars with their displacement of entire populations.

I’m not advocating becoming Pollyannaish, because it is indeed important to keep improving one’s environment. I’m advocating appreciation of everything we have — from good-enough health to attentive-enough children and grandchildren. I’m advocating gratefulness for all that we have from the time we wake up in this beautiful part of the world to the time we go to bed surrounded by quiet for some or by the sound of the ocean for others.

Yes, gratefulness, every day, and many times during the day.

Actually, the choice is ours whether to grouse or be grateful.

Talking to an Elder with Dementia If you know someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia, you know how difficult it can be to communicate with them. Dementia affects the brain, but the person still has their humanness, and still has a mind, an ego and feelings that should be respected. It seems cruel to force a person with dementia to accept aspects of reality that they cannot comprehend. The main coping skills you’ll need to improve communication with your loved one are redirection and validation.

People with dementia sometimes display behaviors that seem out of character or are far too emotional for a specific situation. Redirection diverts their attention away from the stressful even to something more pleasant. This technique and its usefulness depend on what seems sensible in the situation. Be creative and experiment to see what works and what doesn’t with your loved one.

Validation therapy tries to understand why your loved one is behaving a certain way and then you address the trigger or underlying concern. Allowing the dementia patient some measure of control will aid in self-worth and will reduce the occurrence of negative behaviors. The RN Case Managers at Innovative Healthcare Consultants are experienced in dealing with Alzheimer’s’ and dementia issues and would be happy to discuss your areas of concern. Call us at (877) 731-1442 and visit our website at www.innovativehc.com.

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.
