Jack’s La Jolla shuts its doors BY ALYSSA RAMOS | VILLAGE NEWS
While more established eateries such as the La Jolla Hard Rock Cafe closed months ago, locals said a newer landmark was the last spot they expected to find locked upon their arrival last week. But the newly renovated, multi-story Jack’s La Jolla closed its doors July 30, apparently without warning. “It’s a great tragedy for the whole community if in fact they are closing,” Promote La Jolla President Rick Wildman said. “I know on Thursday nobody had any advance notice, and there

SummerFest’s sensational sounds continue BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS
SummerFest’s July 21 sellout opening night gambit, titled “Piano Extravaganza,” came off with both Steinways still standing and the audience more than a little giddy, after hearing four renowned pianists play Gershwin, Ravel, Rachmaninoff, Wagner, SaintSaens, Rossini and Bizet. Add to those four pianists and two Steinways two actively engaged page turners and a mystery guest, a youthful Barnett, either Stephen or Steven,
pulled up from the audience, as if unplanned, to play a work listed as Franz Schubert’s Standchen for Piano - 6 hands. After they’d played a few bars, Anne-Marie McDermott pointed out to Jon Kimura Parker that between the two of them they had only four hands, so they searched the audience for another pianist. Later, when it was time for encores, there were more hijinks. A piece announced as “Brahms’ Symphony No. 4 arranged for three players” devolved into a mishmash of
John Williams’ music from “Star Wars,” replete with Parker’s impersonation of a “Star Trek” character (Mr. Sulu, is that you?) in uniform giving the split-fingers hand signal. That provided a fitting conclusion for a high-spirited evening, which included pianist Helen Huang as well. The four traded duties on high and low parts and in high and low comedy, as in various pairings and combinations they SEE SOUNDS, Page 8

City applies to unclog Rose Creek BY ADRIANE TILLMAN | VILLAGE NEWS
Once Rose Creek leaves the open plains of Rose Canyon, it traverses Interstate 5 and heads into dense Pacific Beach neighborhoods before it merges into Mission Bay. The portion of Rose Creek that rolls behind Mission Bay High School — the oasis of trees, shrubs and birds — makes for a lovely stroll but has become too clogged for the city to adequately control flooding.

In an attempt to change the face of activism at the La Jolla Children’s Pool, students began a series of protests at the beginning of the summer, including a gathering at the courthouse steps and then at the governor’s office. Now the students said they will continue their battle for a La Jolla seal colony, taking their fight to the California Department of Fish and Game in an attempt to alter the Children’s Pool’s designation. “We recently became tax-paying citizens. We’re trying to get as many people as possible, but right now we’ve got a core group of ten people,” said 19-year-old Summer Dunsmore. “We have been focusing on some of the issues around the seals. That’s how it began, a reaction to that sort of news... We were dealing with citizens’ rights — what we want the city to support and not support, and animal rights.” In an effort to save the resident Children’s Pool harbor seal colony, Dunsmore’s student group began organizing protests July 20 supporting Senate Bill 428 (SB-428), which inserts the words “marine mammal viewing area” into California’s tidelands grant in order to add the seal colony to a list of legally permitted uses for the area. “We were protesting the hearing happening that day,” Dunsmore said. “I feel like the issue was being undermined.” While courtroom drama played out between attorneys that Monday, the students walked the courthouse steps, holding signs in support of the seal colony, Dunsmore said. The group walked to Gov.

I have inherited some money and property from my family. I love my spouse, but I want to keep it in my own name. Can I do this? Not only can you do this, you Answer: should do this. What does love have to do with money? In this state and many others, separate property is property you are given alone or that you inherit. Community property is that which you earn while you are married. If you have been married many years and really want to put it in joint names, you can do that also. Once you have received the property, if it is over $100,000.00 or is real estate in California valued at over $20,000.00, you should have a living trust to avoid probate. This trust can be in your name alone. You can name your spouse, children, brothers or sisters as the beneficiaries. One important aspect of keeping this money in your own name is that you will be maintaining control over the assets. This protects the assets in the event of a divorce or if you die and your spouse remarries. It is a practical and quite common thing to do. After another 20 years of marriage you can always change the trust, put the assets in a joint trust or hold it jointly. VIRGINIA L.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s San Diego office later that day, she said. “We asked the governor [to sign SB-428],” Dunsmore said. “We talked to one of the aides there and asked him to send a message to Sacramento.” Dunsmore said the student protests and appeals to Schwarzenegger worked. “That was our motive — we wanted him to see the expedience, and then on Thursday [the judge] repealed the order,” Dunsmore said. On the heels of what she described as a successful protest, Dunsmore said her group started fighting on another front for the Children’s Pool seal colony. The student activists began lobbying the Department of Fish and Game and attending meetings in an attempt to designate the Children’s Pool a state reserve under the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA).
“We’re focusing on lobbying the State Department of Fish and Game,” Dunsmore said. “The MLPA designates state reserves in California; it would include the Children’s Pool as a state reserve.” Although the governor recently signed SB-428, adding marine mammal viewing to the list of uses, the bill ultimately gives the San Diego City Council discretion regarding the seals. But fishing is included among a list of uses that would be outlawed under the MLPA. “Swimming would be allowed but no fishing,” Dunsmore said. “They wouldn’t have to deal with boat propellers or fish hooks and it would help with the sustainability in the area.” For more information about the Children’s Pool, visit www.sen a t e . c a . g o v / k e h o e , w w w. c h i l d r e n s p o o l . o r g , www.friendsoftheseals.com or www.aprl.org/seals.html. ■

work on the channels likely won’t begin until February of 2010. City crews once removed vegetation from waterways as part of routine maintenance, but in early 2000 state and federal agencies stepped in and wanted more oversight of the process, McIntyre said. Now the city must seek a permit under section 404 of the Clean Water Act that requires permission from agencies like the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, California Department of Fish & Game, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board and the California Coastal Commission. In the interim, public works supervisor Bill Tanargo is having his crew remove couches, tables, chairs and bags of trash by hand from the ditch that runs behind Mission Bay High. Tanargo said the plan is to use mechanized equipment to remove all the vegetation from that portion of Rose Creek, unless something is protected, once the city receives the 20-year permit. “In the old days we’d put a bulldozer in there and clear everything. Now we’re much more sensitive to what we’re removing,” Tanargo said. “There are new guidelines on how we work.” The Master Storm Water System Maintenance Program covers a network of storm water facilities throughout San Diego that ranges from channels like Rose Creek to detention basins, pipes and culverts. According to the draft EIR for the program, removing vegetation could

impact sensitive bird species like the least Bell’s vireo and southern willow flycatcher in wetlands, and the California gnatcatcher in areas of coastal sage scrub. State law requires the city to mitigate its impact to the wetlands, creeks and rivers affected by the flood control measures. In the case of Rose Creek, the city can either choose to “enhance” other portions of the creek by pulling weeds — often the invasive giant reed that resembles bamboo — every two years, or “restore” the area by removing invasive species and planting native vegetation in areas not troubled by flooding issues, such as within Rose Canyon. Choosing to mitigate through restoration is ultimately cheaper for the city, since it doesn’t have to pull weeds every two years, but is more costly upfront. “It costs $75,000 to remove weeds for two years, whereas it costs $200,000 to do the restoration,” McIntyre said. “If the city can find the money, we’d prefer to do the one-time mitigation.”■

Most ladies heeded the admonition to wear flats at the Tux ’n Tennies season opener of the San Diego Symphony’s pop series on the Embarcadero, but co-chair Joye Blount opted for strappy high heels. On the other hand, many of the ladies wore sneakers and such, like Joyce Gattas, who sparkled in purple sequined ones and Joyce Grosvenor who chose fur-trimmed mukluks. Men didn’t have to worry about footwear. They had the option to wear anything from Hawaiian shirts and Bermuda shorts to tux attire, which makes this event so much fun. Enough about clothing. The food was catered by Sycuan, which brought their heavy guns to bear on a dinner buffet, including Tokyo type stuff like Kobe sliders, New England specialties like Maine lobster and San Diego items like ceviche, followed by an endless array of cookies. Among the auction items was a dinner for 10 prepared by the fabulous S.D. Symphony chefs, which sold for $10,000. Then the musical portion of the evening, starring Gladys Knight, sans Pips.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT Not your childhood Oz: ‘Wicked’ blows into Civic BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS
FRENCH ACCENT University City resdents (from left) Samantha Wang, 12, Kyle Crews, 17, and Alec Ruiz de Castilla, 11, are part of San Diego Junior Theatre’s “Les Miserables,” through Aug. 9 at Balboa Park’s Casa de Prado Theater.
PEDI-CAB CONTINUED FROM Page 6
ing. In late 2008, a Connecticut man celebrating his 25th wedding anniversary died in Seattle when the pedicab in which he and his wife were riding met up with a van and a scooter (the pedi-cab driver ran a red light). Two months ago, three passengers and a driver were injured when the latter’s pedi-cab, reportedly traveling down an especially steep slope, slammed into an oncoming taxi
on Brooklyn’s Williamsburg Bridge (according to one witness, the vehicle’s front wheel was “embedded” in the driver’s face). Both cities have jumped hard on the upshot, with promises of beefed-up regulations on all fronts. Let’s hope they make good on their declarations — and above all, let’s trust that San Diego will lead the way. — Martin Jones Westlin is the editor of San Diego Downtown News, a sister publication of the Village News. ■
Dorothy’s house still makes a direct hit on the Wicked Witch of the East and Dorothy still melts the Wicked Witch of the West by throwing a bucket of water on her; however, this is not Dorothy’s Oz. It’s the land of Oz as seen through several amusing prisms. First there was L. Frank Baum, the originator known as the royal historian of Oz, who began a series of popular children’s books in 1900. The first was titled “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.” Evolved from a series of refractions came multiple Tony Award-winning 2003 stage musical titled “Wicked.” Winnie Holzman’s book for the musical is based upon Gregory Maguire’s amazing and amusing novel, “The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West,” in which Dorothy is quite peripheral. The real story concerns two witches, one wicked and the other Glinda the Good (think Billie Burke in the 1939 film). Stephen Schwartz (“Godspell,” “Working,” “The Children of Eden”) wrote music and lyrics. A box office bonanza for all concerned, “Wicked” is still playing on Broadway. Currently there are six international companies and two national tours, one of which is seen at the Civic Theatre through Aug. 30, presented by Broadway/San Diego, a Nederlander Presentation. Readers who hope to see “Wicked” should act now. Tickets are scarce. Here’s the story: Glinda (pleasing soprano Katie Rose Clarke) floats to earth in a bubble, much like Burke’s good witch, to rejoice over the death of the Wicked Witch of the West. The rest of the story is a flashback evoked by the question, “You and the Wicked Witch were

friends at one time, weren’t you?” Indeed, Glinda and Elphaba (powerful Donna Vivino) and Elphaba’s wheelchair-bound sister, Nessarose (Amanda Rose), were students together at Shiz University, run by Mme. Morrible (Myra Lucretia Taylor). Other characters include Fiyero (handsome baritone Richard Blake), the prince both Glinda and Elphaba love; Boq (Ben Liebert), the Munchkin who loves Glinda; an old goat of a professor (Paul Slade Smith); and the Wonderful Wizard himself (Lenny Wole). Onlookers learn how the flying monkeys came to be, from whence came the Scarecrow, the Tinman and the Cowardly Lion, and how Elphaba, who becomes the witch of the West, got her undeserved reputation as
wicked. The score includes such unforgettable numbers as Elphaba’s “The Wizard and I,” ”I’m Not That Girl” and “Defying Gravity,” sung when she enchants a broomstick and escapes from the Emerald City. As for the voices, Vivino’s Elphaba gets all the “belt” numbers, and considering that she started her career at 8, singing Young Cosette in “Les Miserables,” her voice is in remarkably fine shape with no apparent holes in the vocal line. To boot, she is a fine actor. Clarke’s Glinda is the best I’ve ever heard vocally. She has an amazingly free and lovely high voice, with little of the unpleasant rapid vibrato that plagues so many others. The rest of the company is just fine, more than adequate. The costumes and sets, by Susan Hilferty and Eugene Lee, respectively, are marvelous to behold as lit so beautifully by Kenneth Posner. Tony Meola’s sound has good balance with the singers and the 14piece orchestra. Purists may object to the twisted plot and the fact that Dorothy and her beloved companions are absent; others find the preachy elements to do with the mistreatment of Oz’s talking animals tedious. This writer, who learned to read with the Oz books, finds it all surprisingly good fun. “Wicked” continues at 7 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays, 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturdays, and 1 and 6:30 p.m. Sundays through Aug. 30 at the Civic Theatre, 1100 Third Ave., downtown.

Residents will rediscover water wonders in August The water’s fine in San Diego — especially this time of year, when the boating and water sports seasons are in full swing. Throughout this month, the San Diego Community Newspaper Group is featuring several articles on the summer’s local surf and turf action. So grab your swimsuit and sunscreen and dive in to our August entries; they’ll help illustrate why San Diego is such a great place to play! La Jolla is known as “the Jewel” for many reasons, but for dedicated ocean aficionados the term refers to the emerald, aquamarine and sapphire waters off the coast. The coastal topography runs the gamut, from rocky ledges and caves best explored via kayak to crystal-clear waters washing over
white sand, where the lucky can spot sand dollars nestled on the bottom. Harmless leopard sharks cruise the shallows each summer, their striped bodies moving gracefully, while Goldfish Point is named for the glittering garibaldi — California’s state fish — that shine among the rocks and sea grasses of the Cove. La Jolla is home to worldrenowned swimmers (several English Channel crossers among them), surfers and divers, as well as the hang gliders and paragliders who float over the cliffs at Torrey Pines and the scientists who study marine life at the famed Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Scripps operates the Birch Aquarium, which SEE WONDERS, Page B·2
Watkins appointed airport authority chair BY ANTHONY GENTILE | VILLAGE NEWS
Bob Watkins has reached new heights with the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority. On July 27, Mayor Jerry Sanders appointed the local businessman chair of the Airport Authority’s board of directors. “I’ve always brought to the table the thought process of how does this impact business and how can business impact the future of San Diego,” Watkins said. “So economic development is a major suit of mine.” Watkins replaces Alan Bersin, who left the position in April to become border czar for the Obama administration. Watkins has been acting chair since May and has
been a member of the board since 2006. Watkins has been doing business in San Diego since 1980. He is founder, president and chairman of R.J. Watkins & Company and also owns a venture-capital firm that invests in local businesses. Watkins currently serves on the board of directors and executive committee of the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation. “I think that a rising tide helps all boats,” Watkins said. “If we can keep our economic business engine moving forward, then San Diego’s continued growth will have a balanced economy.” SEE WATKINS, Page B·7

Cove to La Jolla Shores and back, I figure I’m qualified to sound off about a subject that interests me. That topic is kelp paddies, those tangled masses of independently floating marine algae and grasses that form quagmires for us swimmers to thrash through and sometimes get wedged (or maybe that’s just me). Anglers have known for centuries that any object floating in the ocean attracts fish. Take my tail (not literally!), for example. There I was swimming along and,
as I swiped aside a scrap of kelp, I failed to notice it sheltered a tiny magenta and yellow hitchhiker. The displaced, half-inch-long juvenile blacksmith fish didn’t miss a beat. It adapted by adopting the underside of my fluffy, blond tail, circling under it as I navigated toward the Shores. Whatever shield my tail briefly conferred, a kelp paddy would have offered the baby blacksmith longer-term security. Still, a SEE KELP, Page B·4

Surfers hit the beaches from Tourmaline through Crystal Pier, down to Mission Beach for the morning swells. Tourists flock to the area for the hot sands and cool water in the summer. Vacationers sleep over Crystal Pier, and in large RVs off Mission Bay. Those with boats, yachts, sails and skis cruise Mission Bay, around Fiesta Island and Vacation Isle and out into the open ocean. Longtime residents kayak the bay like an 18-hole golf course, and newcomers tip their sailboats off the

paddy’s existence is relatively fleeting because winds and currents push them to shore where getting left high and dry is a forgone conclusion. Paddies come in all shapes and may range in size from that of a treed cat to the magnitude of my substantial backyard. A paddy may house a menagerie more diverse than what’s found at the humane society. I’ve discovered isopods (marine pill bugs), snails, snail eggs, tiny anemones and sea slugs. As noted, kelp paddies are juvenile fish magnets, the progeny of parents living nearby. Fish like blacksmith, smelts and señoritas are big paddy users, as are transparent, minute pipefish. Researchers think young fish hang
out under kelp paddies for protection, but while they’re at it, they chow down on plankton floating by. After gaining girth, they are better prepared to sink down and face the challenges of adulthood. But enough about early life according to some fish. What on earth births a kelp paddy? Kelps aren’t like us at all. Instead of basking in summer surface water temperatures of at least 68 degrees Fahrenheit, these cold-water-loving puppies go to wrack and ruin (actually, they face ruin first and later end up as beach wrack). The warm water leaves their upper fronds vulnerable to attack by tiny encrusting and parasitic animals that wreak more havoc than fleas. Eventually, the furry, hole-ridden, decaying kelp parts weaken and break off. They don’t sink to the bottom because kelps’ regularly

Pritchard challenged the two men to write something that Chaplin could star in, and the eager filmmakers set out to produce “Captain Abu Raed.” Amin’s father and brother are both commercial pilots, so he got the idea to combine the upper echelon of society of pilots with the lower one of a janitor at the airport. The main character of the film is Abu Raed, an old man who plays a janitor scrubbing floors at the international airport. He dreams of traveling and having adventures but has to be satisfied with reading about them. One day he finds an abandoned airline captain’s hat in the trash and he wears it home. Looking for some excitement and adventure, the neighborhood boys automatically think Abu is a pilot and start badgering him to tell them stories about his life and worldwide adventures. One of the toughie boys, Murad (Hussein Al Sous) is skeptical and challenges Abu Raed in a constant battle of wills. He comes from an abusive home. He is acting brave and tough to compensate for his need for love and a stable male figure in his life. Abu Raed becomes just that to all the children who flock around him. A widower himself, he has no children and dotes on all the curious pups who surround him and cling to every word he tells them in his stories. The film is certainly a charmer and a heartbreaker because not all is fun and games with the poor children. Abu Raed especially is concerned about Murad and

his treatment at home by an abusive father. Jordanian actor Nadim Sawalta is the perfect choice for the grandfatherly Abu and is charm personified. Sawalta was a great find, although he had been involved with Jordanian theater his whole life. Now based in London, he had established himself on British television and had appeared in the James Bond films “The Spy Who Loved Me” and “The Living Daylights.” George Clooney cast him in “Syriana.” When asked about being in the film, he said, “I was thrilled to be offered a starring role in the first Jordanian film, but at the same time I was apprehensive about working with a first-time director. And now that I have seen the finished film, I am ecstatic and honored that I worked with Amin Matalqa on his first film.” Casting the main teen boy Murad was a task that took direc-
tor Matalqa all over Jordan. When he found Hussein Al Sous, he also found that the young boy was interested in aviation, a key plot point of the film. It was a coincidence too important to ignore. The boy was perfect. Capturing the Arab world of Jordan on film was picturesque. Set right in the middle of the ancient world, Amman has many historic sites. The Citadel dates back to Roman times and is now called The Temple of Hercules. Abu Raed’s home was set in the small city of Salt, with architecture dating back to the Ottoman Empire. There was no need to build fake sets; the real thing is spectacular. If you are looking for something different and not an action movie with machine-gun plot, this charming little film will fill the bill. Paper & Pen Films/Gigapix Studios/ David Pritchard Productions

Watkins said he approaches Lindbergh Field issues from a business perspective. He called the airport a catalyst for San Diego, providing nearly $10 billion per year in economic development. “I see it as another part of this linkage of business, economic development and activity in the region,” Watkins said. “It facilitates business activity on many fronts.” The vision Watkins has for Lindbergh Field is to continue to make it more efficient and accessible to both passengers and airlines. In the short-term, he said this means completing “The Green Build” — an $865 million terminal develop-

ment project scheduled to be completed in 2013. “The Green Build” will add 10 gates to the airport and will free up more land for airplane parking. “Moving those planes over to the other side of the airport during traffic times becomes a little tricky,” Watkins said. “By building out the parking area on the airport for airplanes to be on the same side of the terminals, it will help ease the congestion and add to the efficiency of the airport.” Watkins’ long-term plans involve “Destination Lindbergh,” the airport authority’s plan to optimize and improve access to the airport and improve the regional transportation network. Watkins said the completion of “Destination Lindbergh” is 15 to 20 years away and he wants it to be the best return on the investment.

carrying of passengers. International business is something that I would like to see us have a little bit more of.” As for the idea of a new airport, Watkins doesn’t expect that anytime soon. “That has been talked about since the time they started flying out of Lindbergh Field,” Watkins said. “Until planes begin to take off vertically, Lindbergh is always going to be the airport we have. There will always be this question about, ‘Is it better to do it somewhere else?’” Watkins also hopes that the airport will continue to be a good neighbor to surrounding areas. He said the airport has spent about $67 million on the Quieter Home program, which is intended to mitigate the noise of planes flying in and out. ■

PUPPIES These 4 Lab-mix pups each need a family! The right adopters will have the time, dedication and patience necessary to raising a puppy, including obedience training. Bubba, Freckles, and Shadow are male. Dakota is female. Just 8 weeks old, and weighing about 8 lbs. now, we estimate these pups will be 50–60 pounds as adult dogs.

They are being fostered in a private home in north county through the FOCAS rescue program. For information, or to arrange a meeting, call 858-205-9974.
