Residents mount growing campaign against Point’s high-density development BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Roseville residents attempting to stave off high-density development claim it now threatens their community’s character and could add to existing traffic overload. Bounded by San Diego Bay and Rosecrans Street on the east, Cañon Street on the south, Catalina Boulevard on the west and Chatsworth and Nimitz boulevards to the north, Roseville is the oldest

settled part of Point Loma. The neighborhood is named for pioneering developer Louis Rose who bought it in 1866, laid out streets and built a wharf and hotel. Longtime Roseville neighbors, some of whom have become increasingly visible and vocal at Peninsula Community Planning Group (PCPB) meetings, maintain their community plan is obsoSEE DENSITY, Page 8

As drought drags on, city pushes for tougher, voluntary water restrictions BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON After three successive years of drought, the city has issued a Level 1 alert calling for citizens to voluntarily participate in water-conservation measures, including not watering lawns more than three days a week and watering lawns or washing vehicles only before 10 a.m. or after 6 p.m. during summer months. California is mired in a long-term drought, and San Diego is no exception. Noting San Diego’s annual rainfall average recorded at the official measurement station at Lindbergh Field is 10.34 inches, National Weather Service forecaster Jimmy Taeger said

the rainfall amount for 2013-14, which ended June 30, was 5.06 inches. Taeger said rainfall levels the previous year in 2012-13 were 6.51 inches and 8.03 inches the year before that in 2011-12. The forecaster said you have to go back to 2010-11 to find the last year when rainfall was at or above normal, with 12.62 inches that year. Recent changes to the city’s emergency water regulations have established new restrictions on water use, as well as stepping up enforcement and penalties. All water waste is prohibited in the SEE DROUGHT, Page 10

Ocean Beach/Point Loma-area lifeguards proved their mettle in a friendly but physically taxing competition with colleagues from up and down the San Diego coastline July 29, putting skills to the test and showcasing the vital lifesaving techniques beachgoers count on in their times of need. Ocean Beach/Point Loma lifeguards representing San Diego Lifeguard Services’ Southern Division, finally dethroned the reigning champions from Central Division who represent the beach areas from Pacific Beach to South Mission Beach, during the 61st annual Ron Trenton Memorial Lifeguard Relays. The event is designed as a tribute to a fallen San Diego lifeguard, as a fundraiser for several local nonprofits and as a fun, physical competition between the various divisions of San Diego Lifeguard Services. As the most central location for the lifeguards stretching up and down the coast, Central District has played home site to the friendly competition

advantage” in past years, claiming the relays crown annually since 1998. That streak was finally broken this year by lifeguards from the Southern District, who had not claimed the title SEE RELAYS, Page 10

Point Loman, a former Jack’s La Lolla bookkeeper, convicted of embezzlement BY NEAL PUTNAM | THE BEACON

panel was “a very intelligent jury that was able to understand complex evidence and exhibits and come to the right decision. “She will be ordered to pay restitution. But good luck on that,” said Mitchell, adding that Moore had declared bankruptcy, but that that it is not final either. Mitchell repeatedly told jurors in a closing argument to “follow the money [trail].” After Pfingst told jurors the prosecution’s analysis and methodology was too flawed to reach any guilty verdict, Mitchell told jurors in his rebuttal argument to “follow the money and it will tell you the truth of the charges.” Moore was also found guilty of theft from an elder, Dragica Markovich, who was Moore’s former mother-in-law, in 2005 in what Pfingst described as a

After 3½ days’ deliberations, a jury convicted a Point Loma woman Aug. 4 of embezzling millions from the former owner of the now closed Jack’s La Jolla Restaurant, where she served as the firm’s bookkeeper. Tara Virginia Moore, 42, had been free on $400,000 bond but was remanded to jail immediately after the jury convicted her of six felony counts, including three counts of grand theft and fraudulent appropriation by a bookkeeper. Moore did not testify in the sevenweek trial before the eight-woman, fourman jury. Moore’s attorney, Paul Pfingst, argued Moore should remain free on bond, but the judge ordered her jailed immediately. Pfingst, a former district attorney, argued Moore had loaned Jack’s La Jolla money and was paying herself back for the loans. Sentencing is set for Sept. 2. She faces a sentence ranging from 10 to 20 years, said Deputy District Attorney William Mitchell. He said he was relieved by the verdict because he has been working on the case since Moore’s arrest in September 2011. Mitchell praised the jury, saying the

She was found guilty of defrauding $1.3 million from William Berkley, the former owner of Jack’s La Jolla, which went out of business in 2009, leaving 120 people out of work. It opened in 2003. Many former employees testified. Moore was also found guilty of grand theft from another ex-employer, Richard Anderson, whose loss was listed as $200,000. She was also convicted of theft from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs involving $65,000 in benefits she collected from a deceased former husband after she remarried.

NEWS 4 Harris marks 100 days in office with outreach, tangible changes THURSDAY · AUGUST 14, 2014

THE PENINSULA BEACON

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON During his first 100 days in office, District 2 City Councilman Ed Harris has attended 39 community meetings and events, organized three Town Hall forums and overseen numerous street and other infrastructure improvements, as well as engaging residents face-to-face to facilitate better outreach with city governement. Reflecting back, lifeguard-turnedCouncilman Harris noted he’s come a long way — with a ways to go — until he relinquishes his seat in December to Councilwoman-elect Lorie Zapf. “I am driven by the opportunity to improve our quality of life and preserve our San Diegan lifestyle,” said Harris, noting he’s hobnobbed with neighbors about public safety, infrastructure and the environment. “We’ve discussed density, homeless issues, the need for increased pedestrian safeguards, road improvement for

cyclists, the need for additional police officers, the enforcement of existing laws and more,” Harris said. “We’ve also talked about how to make San Diego more sustainable so future generaED HARRIS tions can enjoy the District 2 neighborhoods we call home.” As a councilman, Harris said he’s learned the importance of community engagement and participation. “During this time, I have convened three Town Hall meetings to discuss density, traffic calming and homelessness,” he said. “I am a strong proponent of community engagement because my decisions are best informed by knowing what my community needs.” Harris said some of the highlights from his council term’s first 100 days

are: • encouraging constituents to remain actively engaged in providing input throughout the community planning process; • approving and helping implement the rollout of the long-awaited oversizevehicle ordinance to eliminate overnight parking of motor homes and trailers on residential streets; • initiating public accountability of city efforts to prosecute illegal marijuana dispensaries, as well as enforcing existing violations, particularly in Pacific Beach; • restoring library hours; • securing funding for an urban forester in this year’s budget to coordinate and implement the pending citywide Urban Forestry Plan being developed, as well as coordinating citywide tree maintenance; • beefing up the police department, including increasing police academy class sizes, adding 17 police civilian positions, providing $3 million for the police

retention program and allocating $1 million for police cameras; • improving infrastructure in Pacific Beach/Mission Beach, including: $2.2 million repair/restoration of damaged and eroded historic boardwalk seawall/walkway, San Fernando Place to Ventura Street (Belmont Park) scheduled for completion in 2015; $4.6 million replacement/upgrade of observation/rescue tower at South Mission Beach lifeguard station; $500,000 rebuild of the public restroom/shower facility at the foot of Law Street; and installation of a colorful mural on the crosswalk at PB Middle School in partnership with Beautiful Pacific Beach and the Pacific Beach eco-district. Looking ahead to the next four months, Harris said he’s “committed to this continued engagement to ensure the needs of District 2 residents are met and to ensure the city’s spending of taxpayer dollars is fiscally responsible.” The councilman said he has two more

Town Hall meetingss planned in Linda Vista and Point Loma before the end of his term. Harris talked about other items coming up. “As part of the city’s effort to be a national leader in sustainability and protect our quality of life for future generations, the city is in the process of adopting a climate action plan that will reduce our carbon footprint, build a clean energy economy and prepare our city for the impacts of global warming,” he said. Noting San Diego is one of two cities vying to host the 35th America’s Cup in summer 2017, Harris said the city is “actively advocating with the San Diego Unified Port, the Mayor’s Office and the Economic Development Corporation to ensure San Diego wins the bid. “I look forward to the [remainder of my term] and appreciate the opportunity to represent the residents of District 2,” concluded Harris.

ed in November. “I want to take our reform agenda from San Diego and bring it to Washington, balance the budget, create jobs, support workers and small business and start CARL DeMAIO changing the culture of Congress,” DeMaio told Mission Bay Rotarians during a campaign pitch.

“Both parties are broken and the dysfunction is outrageous, which is why nothing seems to get done. We’ve got to clean up the mess and dysfunction,” he said. DeMaio’s was the first of two backto-back meetings that will be hosted by Rotarians, next featuring Peters on Aug. 18 at 12:30 p.m. at the same venue, the Catamaran Resort Hotel. Touting his legacy as a pensionreforming City Councilman, DeMaio pointed out opinion polls currently show only a 7 percent approval rating for U.S. legislators.

“Congress needs to wake up. They’re out of touch with the American people,” he said, noting he’d institute a number of reforms to streamline federal government. DeMaio proposed making the federal government more transparent by posting legislation like amendments online prior to votes, eliminating special-interest lobbyist and corporate funds for Congressional members’ travel and removing members’ political perks. “I want to make Congress members more transparent and accountable by stripping them of special subsidies for their healthcare and pensions,” DeMaio said. “I don’t believe members should be given benefits that are better than the constituents they serve.” DeMaio said if Congress members are removed from the pension system and have to rely on Social Security, they’ll “make sure those two systems remain solvent and secure.” Asked why voters should choose him rather than Peters, DeMaio replied, “Peters was on the City Council for eight years and he [helped create] the city’s pension crisis and put San Diego on the road to bankruptcy while slashing public services. I was on the City Council for four years and was able to dig the city out of that hole and make the changes necessary to save our city from bankruptcy.” DeMaio fielded questions from audience members especially interested in his stand on immigration. “You have to force Washington to do its job and secure the border,” he answered. “We have to secure the border as a SEE DeMAIO, Page 8


NEWS QUICKHITS >> COUNCIL VOTES TO BAN E-CIGS WHERE SMOKING ALREADY PROHIBITED San Diego joined several other local cities on July 28 in banning the use of electronic cigarettes in all places where conventional smoking is already prohibited. The ordinance is scheduled to become effective this fall. Adopted unanimously by the City Council, it regulates how the increasingly popular electronic cigarettes can be sold, requiring special permits for businesses that sell them and prohibiting sales from vending machines. The makers of e-cigs, which are battery-powered and emit vapor instead of smoke, allegedly target young people with colorful packaging and by featuring flavors like bubble gum. In addition, councilmembers said young people frequently use the devices to smoke marijuana and tobacco. A representative from the industry brought a petition to the council containing more than 900 signatures in opposition to the legislation regulating the use of e-cigarettes, which is also called “vaping.” The city joins the county government and the cities of Carlsbad, Oceanside, Vista, El Cajon and La Mesa in regulating e-cigs. New York, Chicago, Seattle, Los Angeles and Long Beach have also regulated the devices.

SECOND ANNUAL DINE OUT FOR THE CURE SET FOR AUG. 14 The second annual Dine Out for the Cure will make for one delicious day as local restaurants and patrons across San Diego will be dining out to support the fight against breast cancer. On Aug. 14, participating restaurants — including the Broken Yolk restaurant at 3577 Midway Drive — will donate 25 to 50 percent of the day’s proceeds to Susan G. Komen San Diego to support education, outreach, free mammograms, financial and food assistance, trans-

portation and more. “By enjoying a meal at some of San Diego’s most notable restaurants, you will be making a difference in the lives of local women and their families affected by breast cancer,” said Laura Farmer Sherman, executive director of Susan G. Komen San Diego. “Imagine if you were too weak to even be able to make dinner for your family. That is a reality in the lives of some of the women that we serve, and with the money raised from this event, we will be able to take that burden off their shoulders.” Participating restaurants include Nothing Bundt Cakes, Yanni’s Bistro, Aqui es Texcoco, Croce’s, Redfield’s Sports Bar and more. Making dining plans at a participating restaurant will support San Diego breast cancer patients and help them become breast cancer survivors. With $1 million at work in San Diego, Komen San Diego is the largest funder of free breast cancer diagnostics, treatments, services and support of any organization in San Diego County. For more information, visit www.komensandiego.org/DineOut.

On average, homes continue to stay on the market less than 40 days and are selling 19 percent faster than a year ago and nearly 50 percent faster than 2012. “Our real-estate market has been seeking a sustainable equilibrium for some months now,” said Leslie Kilpatrick, SDAR president. “Our local economy remains in a fragile healing stage, yet properly priced homes continue to sell quickly and inventory levels are still relatively low. Long-term, the San Diego region will need to see quality job growth and more first-time homebuyers to fuel greater sales volume and further price gains.” In July, the ZIP codes in San Diego County with the most single-family home sales were: 92028 (Fallbrook) with 49; 92071 (Santee) with 46; 92115 (College Grove) with 44; 92009 (Carlsbad) with 43; and 92128 (Rancho Bernardo), also with 43. The most expensive listing sold last month in the county: aa seven-bedroom, eight-bath, 8,700-square-foot home in La Jolla that sold for $8.25 million. — San Diego Metro

POLL SHOWS BROAD SUPPORT FOR MIMIMUM-WAGE HIKE A new poll commissioned by the Raise Up San Diego coalition and released Aug. 7 found that 63 percent of registered San Diego voters support the minimum-wage increase approved by the City Council last month. The ordinance calls for the local minimum wage to increase to $9.75 on Jan. 1, to $10.50 on Jan. 1, 2016, and $11.50 on Jan. 1, 2017. After that, it would be indexed to inflation. Mayor Kevin Faulconer vetoed the ordinance, although the council could still vote to override his veto. The poll was conducted between July 31 and Aug. 4 by Greenburg Quinlan Rosner Research. Researchers found: • 63 percent of likely San Diego voters support the council-approved ordinance. • 59 percent reported that they would vote against repealing the ordinance. • 41 percent said they would be less likely to support Faulconer if he proceeds with a veto of the ordinance. The poll surveyed 500 registered voters and has a margin of error of 4.4 percentage points. — San Diego Metro

CITY COUNCIL TAKES LITTLE ACTION BEFORE AUGUST RECESS Before the San Diego City Council adjourned for its August recess, members sat down for what was shaping up to be a busy special meeting, but it seems like they went on vacation early. The council took no action on a proposed settlement with an unidentified woman who sued over the sexualassault actions of ex-police officer Anthony Arevalos. He was convicted in 2011 for sexually assaulting women while on duty. The council also did not decide whether to appeal this month’s court ruling that the city’s plan to fund the San Diego Convention Center expansion

SD REALTORS ASSOCIATION REPORTS COUNTY HOME SALES DIPPED IN JULY Home sales fell in July, while the median sale price of single-family homes in San Diego County continued to stabilize above $500,000, according to new housing statistics from the Greater San Diego Association of Realtors. Single-family resale homes sold in July decreased by about 13 percent compared to June, while sales of previously owned condominiums/townhomes fell about 2 percent. The median price of single-family homes sold in July was $517,000, down slightly from June, but still 7 percent higher than July 2013. Condos and townhomes sold at a median price of $325,000, down by about 3 percent from June, and about the same as a year ago. Meanwhile, the number of active listings in San Diego County is approaching 8,500 on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). That is the highest it’s been in 2 1/2 years, yet it represents only about three months of inventory. Six months of housing stock is generally considered a healthy inventory level, a point the San Diego market hasn't seen since 2011.

Although the nine-member City Council was down two members — Mark Kersey and Marti Emerald were absent — the council did ratify labor agreements for the “San Diego Works” program. That’s the mayor's plan to award public employees who bring forth money-saving ideas.

Adam Lynch, 36, the bandit who was portrayed as nonchalant and unassuming appeared Monday before U.S. District Court Judge Roger Benitez in jail clothing with a chain around his feet. Benitez determined the 56-month term will run consecutive to a 64month term that Lynch is already serving for bank robberies in Denver and Cheyenne, Wyo. Benitez ordered a 70month term with 56 months to run consecutive and the other 14 months to run concurrent. Benitez ordered Lynch to pay nearly $26,000 to the banks, which include the Citibank branch at 7900 Hershel Ave. which he robbed twice, and the Wells Fargo Bank at 7714 Girard Ave.,

He also ordered him to pay $700 in penalty-assessment fees. Lynch gave general apologies to tellers and police officers. He said he was living legally in the U.S. with a green card. Lynch differed with his attorney about the role of depression in the bank robberies Lynch pleaded guilty Jan. 28 to all seven San Diego hold-ups.

Planners hear update on Point Loma Village revamp, planned international language school

SeaWorld, animal activists take their war public at airport

The Peninsula Community Planning Board (PCPB) gave a unanimous thumbs-up recently to Point Loma Village, a revamped mixed-use condo project at the corner of Rosecrans and Byron streets. The advisory group also heard plans to turn the former Cabrillo Hospital into an international language school. The PCPB makes land-use recommendations to the city community planning area that encompasses seven highly urbanized square miles. The area includes the neighborhoods of Ocean Beach Highlands, Point Loma Highlands, Loma Alta, Loma Palisades, Loma Portal, Fleetridge, Roseville, Sunset Cliffs, La Playa and NTC Liberty Station.

The animal-rights activist group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) revealed it had placed another anti-SeaWorld message at San Diego’s airport. The 20-foot-long banner is intended to discourage attendees arriving for the recent Comic-Con International convention from visiting SeaWorld San Diego while they were in town. PETA has been demonstrating against the theme park for years, claiming that the animal theme park’s killer whales are mistreated. SeaWorld has launched an aggressive pushback campaign, detailing the benefits of public education and scientific research that would not ordinarily be available in the wild. PETA’s $24,000 banner, placed near the baggage claim of Terminal 2 at Lindbergh Field, depicts an Orca holding the foot of a man with its teeth. The man, wearing a suit and a “CEO'” label, is supposed to represent the company's chief executive. The banner, created by Bluewater Productions — a Vancouver, Wash., producer of comic books and graphic novels — includes the text: “He will let you go if you let him go. PETA.” “Comic-Con fans love blood and guts when they’re fake, but at SeaWorld, it’s all too real for comfort,” Bluewater founder Darren Davis said. “The Orcas are desperate to be free. That’s why trainers have been

Architect Toni Cutri of Martinez + Cutri Corp. informed planners and residents on the Point Loma Village project. He said the project plan, which calls for demolishing three existing rundown buildings and replacing them with a three-story, mixed-use development, now would entail 16 condominium units — one less than originally planned. “We had questions last month about how parking was calculated, so the item was continued to this meeting,” said PCPB chairwoman Julia Quinn, noting the project was returned to the group’s Project Review Committee for further scrutiny and dialogue with developers. Noting they “went back to the drawing board,” developers said they’ve

made significant changes to the project by “reducing the square footage” of the proposed commercial space, as well as adding parking. Developers said their project, as designed, is now less dense and also has sustainable features like bike racks and an electric-car recharging station. Cutri said it was uncertain what business would go in the project’s commercial space but said it could be a restaurant. But if it were a restaurant, Cutri said, “It would be light-duty food. We don’t have accommodations for a [fullservice] restaurant.” Asked whether a restaurant would have a sidewalk café, Cutri said, “It doesSEE PLANNERS, Page 20

killed and that’s what we’re depicting in this campaign with PETA," he said. David Koontz of SeaWorld San Diego said the theme park has its own advertising at the airport, including wall murals and on baggage claim monitors in both terminals. “Even by PETA’s standards, this ad is as offensive as it is tasteless,” Koontz said. “PETA isn’t concerned with actually helping animals. They are a radical organization that continues to spend its money on publicity stunts like the profane Jason Biggs video and advertising campaigns like this for the sole purpose of promoting their agenda.'” Koontz said the park’s killer whales are “healthy and happy and thrive in our care. The real animal welfare organization is SeaWorld, not PETA, and our trainers, aviculturists, animal-care staff and veterinarians are the true advocates for animals.'” The public can get SeaWorld's point of view at www.seaworld.com/truth and www.seaworldcares.com, he said. In May, PETA placed a wall poster in Terminal 2 in which actress and San Diego native Kathy Najimy urged visitors to avoid SeaWorld San Diego. The poster was placed at the airport after the animal-rights organization successfully sued the airport.

7 Point Loma High campus improvements continue to light up readers LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

GUEST VIEW

PLHS stadium-lighting plan bodes poorly for those nearby I’m writing in response to your article in the Beacon regarding the athletic fields in Point Loma. I will refer you to our Pro Point Loma website for information regarding Point Loma High’s field and the reasons “some of the neighbors” are against the plan for lights and a publicaddress system. I am really disappointed to see the lack of balanced coverage regarding this issue. So far, all I’ve seen is articles obviously in favor. A little in-depth reporting would lead you to see how the school district does not fully inform communities and sometimes outright lies to us re this issue. We were promised as recently as 2011 that no lights would be installed (a letter from the district can be found on our website). As of now, there is no “green light” for lights and a public-address system at PLHS. Our group is determined to stop this and save our neighborhood from the lasting effects of this. All anyone has to do is come here and look at the campus and its proximity to homes to realize how terrible this plan is. Also note the one parking lot, which is a few blocks away from the new improved entrance to the stadium. My daughter just graduated in June. We were sent an email from the school directing everybody to come early as there was no parking on campus and we would all have to park on the neighborhood streets. Every graduation day, the streets are lined with cars for blocks around. This also happens on Homecoming Day. The streets are narrow. Nobody directs traffic, especially at the intersection of Clove and Voltaire streets, where people are crossing on foot and cars are crossing as well. Imagine having large events there once stadium seating is installed, lights and a PA system. We would go from having this problem twice a year to possibly weekly events both day and night — all year long. School district Trustee Scott Barnett is not seeking re-election. He makes promises that cannot be kept, and who knows who will follow on the district after he leaves. He has not promised us that the stadium will not be used for outside groups. In fact, the school already rents the stadium out. It is my understanding the school district made about $2 million last year renting out the field. Why else would the district spend so much money on lights when funds are

so limited? That school campus is a mess. Poor air conditioning, little green space, buildings that have no bathroom facilities — those are just some of the problems. Not to mention that the campus is just plain ugly. Why isn’t the district addressing these issues first? And why aren’t you and your publication writing about that? Our group has interviewed neighbors from Clairemont who are really upset about what has happened at Claremont High School. They report weekly, sometimes 4 or 5 days a week; events take place at the school day and night. The PA system is really loud, even with windows closed. The sound of people stomping on the new aluminum bleachers is deafening and the light shines way beyond the campus. The stadium there is used for events that sometimes last all day and into the night. These neighbors have tried to get [District 2 City Councilman-elect] Lori Zapf to help them, but so far no luck. One prominent San Diegan, Walter Andersen of Andersen’s nursery, is actually selling his house because of this. I have lived in this neighborhood all of my life. I live in my parents’ house, which they built in 1950. I had planned to stay here for the rest of my life and hopefully leave it to our daughters. This stadium plan will have a terrible effect on the quality of life here and our property values. I am very-pro PLHS. I’m an alumni and I belong to the alumni association. My class donated money to the school this year in the form of a scholarship. My mother graduated from Point Loma High in 1942, as did my aunt and two uncles. I am one of seven children, all of whom attended PLHS, and our own daughters both did. I resent being made to look like a NIMBY [Not in My Backyard] neighbor who does not care about the school or the students who go there. But this situation will be intolerable, and I think so unnecessary, especially since the district is planning a large sports complex at Correia. I challenge you and your publication to do your job and research this issue. I am looking forward to seeing a fair, balanced report.

THE PENINSULA BEACON

PLHS LIGHTING, IMPROVEMENTS DETRIMENTAL TO NEIGHBORHOOD A lie told a thousand times is still a lie on the thousandth time it is told, and that is how I felt when I read your Beacon article on the planned improvements to Point Loma High School. It is, indeed, too bad that there are no investigative news reporters willing to ask even the obvious questions: 1.) Why does Point Loma High School need permanent lights when temporary lights have been used for years? 2.) Where is the original environmental report that was to be released last year? Could it be that this document will never see the light of day because it talks about the real problems and it is NOT traffic and noise? Is it about residents having to babysit sick, drunk or aggressive students? Is it about riots and near-riots from adults/children watching the games? Is it about residents and/or one or two police officers left alone to deal with a situations of the school’s making? 3.) Point Loma High School is not going to be commercialized when the new lights are installed? Really? Come on, Point Loma High School is commercialized now without any lights being installed. The people using the facilities on Saturdays and Sundays are not there for school-related functions, nor are they residents of the area. The site is locked down. Only someone with a key can get in. 4.) Is not Point Loma High School on the flight path for the San Diego Airport? Don’t you think the glare from 90-foot lights might cause an airplane

crash? 5.) Why is the school board proceeding with the light installation without FAA approval? What is the rush? 6.) Please describe how the San Diego School Board and Point Loma High School is a good neighbor. And please, no more lies (or staged photographs); the school does not even pick up trash on its property that is not fenced off. It is left to the residents to clean up the school property adjacent to their homes. 7.) Are the school board members getting bonuses for renting out the city schools? If they are not, then we should find out what the incentive really is for the school board. Why would a normal person/organization proceed with the installation of lights knowing that their actions will cause someone to get hurt or more than likely die? Think about it, something is not right. Why is the San Diego Unified School District Board above the law? Why are they so adamant that lights must be installed at all costs at Point Loma High School?

Heidi Smith Point Loma CLAIREMONT NEIGHBOR WEIGHS IN BASED ON OWN EXPERIENCES I was very interested to see the various reader responses that appeared in the Jan. 16 edition of The Beacon regarding the school district’s pursuit of a larger commercialized stadium at Point Loma High School, complete with 90-foot light towers and a new publicaddress system.

All I can say to my Point Loma friends is, “Wake up! You have no idea what’s coming!” As a Clairemont homeowner and neighbor of Clairemont High School, I know what I’m talking about. I have endured more than two years of what you’re about to get. With scant notice, the school district installed stadium light towers and a public-address system and the lives of my neighbors and I have been irrevocably changed. Yours will be, too. The sounds of songbirds will be replaced by ear-splitting music during team practices. Prepare to shut all doors and windows during practices and events, but to no avail, since you’ll still hear the coaches screaming and the blaring PA system. You’ll be a prisoner in your own home on warm days and nights. Buses will barrel down your quiet residential streets rather than use less-intrusive routes. Lights will remain on into the night for days on end, no matter what they promise. Being regularly subjected to this level of light glare, activity and extreme noise may turn out to be the worst experience you’ve had as a homeowner, for you’re no longer entitled to the comfort and enjoyment of your own property. The determination of our school district to steamroll more and more of San Diego’s residential neighborhoods with these unwanted “improvements” and the resulting clamorous atmosphere is shocking and should be stopped before more communities are destroyed in the process.

NEWS & VIEWS LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Is anyone paying attention to the potential for high-density growth? I attended the “Meet the Mayor” event with Mayor Kevin Faulconer in Pacific Beach recently, and I had the opportunity to ask: What do you plan on doing about traffic and parking as a result of the high-density development on the Peninsula? I mentioned the proposed Midway area and possible 5,000 residential units, Water Point 40 units, PL

lete. They insist recent projects in the pipeline in their area which conform to existing design standards are too dense, too tall, too dependent on limited available mass transit and too impactful to traffic, particularly during peak commute hours. Recent projects some local residents have objected to include Waterpoint condominiums, 1255 Scott St., a mixeduse complex with 40 condo units now under construction; Point Loma Village, a proposed mixed-use with 16 condo units on the upper floor with retail below at the corner of Rosecrans and Byron streets; a three-story condo project on Avenida de Portugal, already built and operating, that neighbors say is 38.5 feet high — exceeding the 30-foot height limit; and a housing project on Carleton Street now under construction, which neighbors insist is also well above the 30-foot height limit. “San Diego is all about getting more

Village 17 units and those at Voltaire Street Catalina Boulevard. How can we get some teeth into the Peninsula Community Planning Board? And how do we enforce the 30-foot height limit? I stated that the PCPB did NOT approve the over-height-limit Avenida de Portugal project and that the city sold us out and approved it anyway. Someone from Bay Park also asked

about high density and height limits, too. Faulconer said he was aware of the Morena Boulevard 60-foot height proposal, as well as these other projects. Faulconer’s answer was to work on the outdated individual community master plans so the communities have a say before it becomes many amendments.

Although Faulconer aide Ian Clampett put our item on the “list” for review with the Mayor’s Office, we need help now. What is the process and how long will it take to update that master plan? District 2 City Councilwoman-elect Lori Zapf also attended this meeting, and I hope she is listening to the residents of the Peninsula and will work as hard as current Dis-

trict 2 Councilman Ed Harris does for this district. If all our communities, including Pacific Beach, Ocean Beach, Loma Portal, Point Loma Village, Midway, Morena and Bay Park are up in arms, maybe someone will listen and help us.

density rather than spreading it out,” said Don Costello, a Point Loma Village resident. Other agreed. “They (outsiders) don’t have to live here and drive around,” said neighbor Korla Eaquinta, who warned, “We don’t want to turn [Point Loma] into a Miami with sky rises. We want to keep that village feel, bay views and open air and sunshine.” Height limitations must be adhered to, said others. “The main thing is abuse of the 30foot height limit,” contended Marian D’Angelo, who said there are several housing projects in the area that have used design loopholes to build higher than what’s allowed. “[Developers are] throwing this little area under the bus.” Others were concerned with parking. “The biggest thing is the limited parking that’s available,” said Jody Costello. “It’s important that we’re not going to be a concrete jungle. This is a small, beautiful village, and you’re not going to be able to see the waterfront if you’ve got these tall buildings lined up.”

Costello said Roseville will likely have to use some kind of resident parkingpermit system to allow residents to park in their own neighborhood, which is now taken up largely by retail employee parking. Responding to concerns raised by Point Lomans, Bill Fulton, the city’s outgoing planning director said, “I think we’ve followed the rules in these cases, and are confident that the (30-foot) height measurements are correct as measured from the highest adjoining finished grades (required in city’s municipal code).” Noting his department is involved with development projects early on in the planning process often before amendments are made, Fulton said he appreciates that Point Lomans “have concerns about the existing rules that affect the community’s character.” “We’re not proposing increased densities or land-use changes in the Peninsula,” said Fulton. Regarding available mass transit, Fulton said, “There is bus service there now.”

Fulton said the issue may be one of how existing rules are interpreted, rather than whether the rules still apply, or need to be updated. Resident Christy Schisler, who unsuccessfully fought the Waterpoint development under construction at Point Loma’s bayfront on Scott Street between Carleton and Dickens streets, said developers get preferential treatment downtown. “I was shocked to find that the city’s Development Services Department are advocates for developers,” Schisler said. “It’s not an objective approach. They’re promoting projects without regard to the possible impacts.” Noting Waterpoint is being constructed on property once zoned as marine industrial, Schisler said infill development in the neighborhood “multiplies by 10 times” traffic and other problems. “It’s not good community planning,” she said. “There’s no more room. That, to me, is the bottom line.” Eaquinta said one of the many problems with zoning is that developers have found ways to circumvent the commu-

nity planning-review process. She said projects are “sneaking” in under the planning radar, being initially designated as apartments, then subsequently changing the plans to condominiums, thus circumventing the community planning-review process. Some Roseville residents insist projects being approved as “transit oriented” in their neighborhood, which they say have extremely limited bus-service, is a mockery. Neighbors said there used to be four bus routes serving the Peninsula. That has since been whittled down to two, with the potential of going down to just one route soon because of falling ridership. What needs to be done to preserve Point Loma Village in Roseville? “We need to close all the loopholes and that’s that,” said D’Angelo, adding the 30-foot height limit must be enforced. The fight, it appears, is still far from over. “We’re not going to stop (protesting),” vowed Jody Costello. “We’re going to get much more involved.”

COAST GUARD OKs HIKE IN VESSEL DOCUMENTATION RENEWAL FEES The U.S. Coast Guard's final rule on vessel documentation renewal fees was published in the Federal Register on Aug. 12. The Coast Guard is amending its regulations to separately list an annual fee for renewals of endorsements upon the certificate of documentation. The Coast Guard is required to establish user fees for services related to the documentation of vessels. This final rule separately lists a fee of $26 to cover the costs of the vessel documentation services provided by the Coast Guard. It will increase the annual certificate of documentation fee col-

lections so that they more accurately reflect the actual costs to the Coast Guard of providing the documentation services. The Coast Guard sets fees at an amount calculated to achieve recovery of the costs of providing the service. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990 requires the Coast Guard to charge a fee for services but limits charges to no more than the overall cost of the program. The fees will become effective 90 days after the rule is published. Visit www.federalregister.gov/articles/2014/08/12/210418999/vessel-documentation-renewal fees.

On July 15, California’s Water Resources Control Board voted to impose mandatory water-use restrictions statewide in response to California’s ongoing drought. For San Diego, however, permanent

mandatory water-use restrictions in place since 2009 already meet elements of the requirements mandated by the state. As a result, the state’s regulation does not require the city to make changes to its emergency water regulations but should serve as a reminder to all San Diegans that using water efficiently, and in compliance with the city’s current water use restrictions, are important to help conserve water during this severe drought condition. “I want to thank San Diegans, who for years have done a tremendous job of stepping up to the plate to incorporate water conservation into their way of life,” said Mayor Kevin Faulconer. “This summer, as we see temperatures climb, we must continue to be

The city may penalize those who continue to waste water with an escalating series of penalties up to and including shutting off water service. When customers continue to waste water after being contacted by the Public Utilities Department’s conservation staff, the city's Code Enforcement Department can step in. Should a customer refuse to stop

support the Ocean Beach Community Development Corporation’s Veterans’ Plaza Memorial Project; • Councilman David Alvarez and Councilwoman Myrtle Cole co-captained the Central Division, working with lifeguards to raise $2,500 for the Jackie Robinson YMCA; • City Council President Todd Gloria and Council President Pro Tem Sherri Lightner co-captained the Northern Division, working with lifeguards to raise $3,000 for the Marine Corps Law Enforcement Foundation; • Councilwoman Lorie Zapf and Councilman Scott Sherman co-captained the Boating Safety Unit/Mission Bay, working with lifeguards to raise $2,500 for Rady Children’s Hospital. District 2 City Councilman Ed Har-

ris, a longtime veteran lifeguard and resident of Point Loma whose district encompasses all of San Diego’s beach communities, was front and center for the event. He praised the efforts of supporters. “I appreciate my council colleagues participating in this year’s relays and fundraising for local charities, and for Capt. Scott Adams for firing the starting gun. It was a rigorous competition for the lifeguards and a fun event for those who came out to watch,” said Harris. The annual lifeguard relays are named for veteran lifeguard and longtime Northern District team captain Ronald Trenton, who was lost at sea while piloting his private plane from Catalina Island to San Diego in 1997.

HOW YOU CAN PITCH IN The city recommends a few methods for water conservation: • Check faucets, pipes and toilets for leaks; • Plant drought-resistant lawns, shrubs and plants; • Put a layer of mulch around trees and plants; • Water during early parts of the day; • Don’t run the hose while washing your car; and • Use a broom, not a hose, to clean driveways and sidewalks.

mindful of the current drought situation by adhering daily to the city’s permanent water use restrictions,” he said. The city will continue to review the state’s decision and monitor the drought conditions throughout the state to determine if any changes to its

drought response level are necessary. The city’s focus for now will be to reduce water waste by educating residents on how to comply with the restrictions through education rather than an enhanced enforcement system focused on fines.

BUSINESS 15 Car’s Jars: taking salad freshness to a whole new level THURSDAY · AUGUST 14, 2014

THE PENINSULA BEACON

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON Native Obecian Carly McHenry has found a new career direction after having turned the corner on salads. McHenry has become a superstar with the Mason jar on the local culinary scene. She’s marketing her handmade, healthy, convenient and affordable layered salads through her 10-month-old business named Car’s Jars. Not only that, she delivers. A graduate of Chico State with a degree in exercise physiology, McHenry was working locally with autistic children. The homemade salads she’d bring for herself and others at work were just so good that friends convinced her to take it to the next level. And she did, with a lot of patience, effort and more than just a little fine-tuning. First, McHenry needed to find the proper container. “I started out with Tupperware, but it wasn’t lasting long, so I moved to Mason jars,” she said. Then she had to find a kitchen to operate out of, since her home didn’t qualify under the guidelines for operating a cottage industry. “I have a twin sister whose roommate worked with a catering company,” McHenry said. “I went out there and walked into his huge kitchen and just couldn’t believe my eyes. They offered to rent it out to me, and it wasn’t a bad price.” Product development came next and had to be grappled with — and mastered. “That was the longest phase, test marketing, which took about five or six months,” McHenry said. “I was experimenting with recipes, the best way to

Car’s Jars uses seasonal, fresh localsourced produce and homemade vinaigrettes. The homemade salads can be eaten as is or prepared completely differently by warming them up as stir fry or wrapping them up. McHenry makes all of her deliveries for Car’s Jars on Mondays to a 20-mile

area that includes Mira Mesa and San Diego’s beach communities. “I bought an SUV and I do it by myself,” said McHenry, adding customers don’t have to even be there when their food arrives. “I tell them to leave out a cooler, and I bring along ice,” she said. She added she

delivers to commercial and office buildings and residences. Her salads cost $8 a pint or $10 for a pint and a half. And she rewards customers willing to return her Mason jars to her. For more information, visit www.carsjars.com.

layer and season the food, et cetera.” Now she was hooked. McHenry just had to make it happen as a business. But there was a question about investors for her startup. “My parents believed in my idea and supported me,” she said. “If it was any other kind of business, they would have said, ‘I don’t know about this.’ I was willing to take the risk. And I was in a position to do so.” Though her career may have deviated from the path she’d originally intended, McHenry said she is happy to be promoting healthy lifestyles by providing a nutritious diet. “We’re encouraging people to plan ahead for healthy meals so they’re not in a situation where they’re eating fast food or grab-and-goes,” she said. “My salads stay fresh in the fridge for five days. They’re convenient, affordable, healthy and delicious.”

DINING & ENTERTAINMENT 16 Cohn Restaurant Group complements OB character in a big way THURSDAY · AUGUST 14, 2014

THE PENINSULA BEACON

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON You can now go “casual global” with OB Warehouse, the latest addition to the Ocean Beach restaurant scene. After months of anticipation, David and Lesley Cohn of the Cohn Restaurant Group opened the OB Warehouse on Aug. 7. “This project has been a long time in the making, and we’re incredibly pleased to bring this fun, world-cuisine dining option to the area,” said David Cohn. “Ocean Beach is a vibrant community known for its character and originality, and we’ve created a menu and design that complements the neighborhood.” Starting with one small diner in 1982, the Cohn Restaurant Group now owns and operates 21-plus restaurants within the San Diego area and two locations on Maui. While each restaurant varies wildly in terms of cuisine, ambiance and design aesthetic, they all share the same philosophy being “obsessed with hospitality.” Located at 4839 Newport Ave. in the former Portugalia building, the new second-floor, 6,000-square-foot eatery and bar exudes a modern, industrial atmosphere. OB Warehouse’s creative interiors boast communal seating, an expansive central bar and a chic outdoor patio.

The innovative menu by chef Amiko Gubbins uses fresh California ingredients and flavor influences from around the globe in dishes like the savory Moroccan-spiced rub flatiron and Hoisin chicken potstickers. The OB Warehouse mingles Asian influences with those from the Mediterranean, Morocco and the Middle East. The eatery serves up a wide range of inventive starters, salads, flatbreads, entrees and desserts, like the coconut tapioca and bittersweet chocolate cake. The bar menu features a range of hand-crafted, warehouse-themed cocktails like The Welder, an easy-drinking blend of Kolsch beer, Pavan liqueur, grapefruit juice and lemon juice; and the Forklift, made with Kappa Pisco, St. Germain, orange juice and a dash of lychee syrup. The beverage menu also offers an extensive list of 50-plus unusual wines from around the world, including varietals from Lebanon, Slovenia, and Greece, as well as 20-plus draft beer options focusing on unique craft beers with a heavy regional emphasis. The vision for this curated and eclectic space comes from Philippe Beltran, the Cohn Restaurant Group’s go-to designer. His repertoire includes 100 Wines Hillcrest, BO-beau kitchen + gar-

den, BO-beau kitchen + bar and the newly revamped Indigo Grill. Known for his soulful “old-meets-new” aesthetic, Beltran added warmth to the industrial space with procured treasures found on his international travels. Gubbins’ culinary career began by watching her traditional Japanese moth-

er in the kitchen. But her formal training first took life in La Jolla under Ulf Anders and William Gustaf, whom she credits for cultivating her immense appreciation for food and quality ingredients. After spending time in the kitchens of Cilantros and Pacifica Del Mar, Gubbins served as executive chef of Cafe Japengo,

where she took home the award for Best Asian Food for eight years. Soon after, she branched out on her own as chef and owner of the critically acclaimed Parallel 33 in San Diego’s Mission Hills neighborhood. For more information, call (619) 2221700, or visit www.obware-house.com.

San Diego is fortunate to draw musical talent from all over the world, drawn by the great weather and vibrant arts community, so it’s easy to overlook one of the other big reasons for the talent influx — education. With a host of options like UC San Diego, San Diego State University, University of San Diego and Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU), many musicians find their way here, performing after their studies. Such is the case with singer-songwriter Kris McCoy. Originally based in Arizona, McCoy relocated here in 2011 to pursue a bachelor’s degree at PLNU. On Saturday, Aug. 23, McCoy, will host a special afternoon CD-release show for his new CD, “Toes in the Sand,” at Raglan Public House from 2 to 5 p.m. The event will feature live acoustic music, drink specials and food, with part of the proceeds going to the San Diego Junior Lifeguard Foundation. A veteran of the Arizona music scene, McCoy has previously released three albums with two different bands, Shallow Water’s 2002 debut album, “Two Dollar Sailboat,” and its 2006 follow-up album, “What’s Her Name?,” as well as The Half Smile’s 2010 album, “Similar Distant View.” He has also landed prime opening spots there, including gigs with such acts as Bare Naked Ladies, Sugar Ray, Smash Mouth, Live and The Flys. “We’d vacationed here for years,” McCoy said. “I ended up staying when I went for my second bachelor’s degree in music ministry up at PNLU.”

While McCoy didn’t perform during his first few years here, he was accumulating new material. “I really enjoy the creative process, being able to take a thought or idea and turn it into a song,” he said. His delay in releasing new music since his arrival is down to timing. “Part of it was finishing school, but I have been writing music over that time. I finally got to the point that I had a couple of tracks I wanted to take the time to get in the studio with. Getting those back from duplication, it’s time now.” With the exception of the drums, McCoy plays everything on the album. “I’m very proud to be in a position to be a multi-instrumentalist,” he said. For McCoy music has been a lifelong obsession. “I’ve been playing one instrument or another for as long as I can remember,” he said. “I remember being a little kid and I got my first ukulele. Not that I really knew how to play it, but I ran around with that,” McCoy laughed. “From there

I started playing trumpet in third grade, transitioning to guitar in junior high.” While today he cites Jack Johnson and Jason Mraz as prime inspiration, in his younger days, McCoy’s inspiration was much more basic. “I loved listening to the radio, all genres, all types of music. I had such a passionate love for music, if it was on I would sing and listen to it.” McCoy has found the local community welcoming, but does note one big difference between San Diego and Arizona. “One of the big things is that Arizona is so spread out,” he said. “You can’t really focus on one community because there might only be one place to play there. San Diego is much closer together, especially Ocean Beach, which is a wonderful, tight-knit community. It just has a small-town feel, without necessarily being a small town.” Though still new to the San Diego music scene, McCoy is a seasoned veteran with more than a decade of hard work behind him as he starts his next phase in his new hometown. Does he still like music as much as when first started out? “I get more joy now,” he said. “With my experience in music theory, I’m at a level now that I can actually really understand the ins and outs of music in a way that I didn’t even know was possible 15 or 20 years ago. It’s made music that much more enjoyable for me. I wouldn’t change a thing.” • KRIS McCOY: Saturday, Aug. 23, RAGLAN PUBLIC HOUSE, 1851 Bacon St. 2 p.m. www.reverbnation.com/krismccoy.

THURSDAY · AUGUST 14, 2014 THE PENINSULA BEACON

Health BRIEFS >> Medication Mistakes Can Be Dangerous

Every year 1.5 million people are injured or become seriously ill when a medication mistake happens and 100,000 people a year die from the mistake. It is important for everyone to protect themselves from possible mistakes. Knowing how to avoid mistakes is important for everyone. Confusing two medications with similar names accounts for up to 25 percent of errors. Sometimes the doctor’s handwriting is misread, the wrong medicine name is put into the computer or the wrong drug is pulled from the pharmacy shelf but it happens. Drugs that could be confused might be Adderall (a stimulant for ADHD) with Inderal (a beta-blocker for high blood pressure), or Paxil (an antidepressant) with Taxol (a cancer drug) or Plavix (an anticlotting medication). Ask your doctor to write on the prescription what it’s for as well as the name and dosage. If the pharmacist sees high blood pressure but the name of the drug is an antidepressant, it should be a red flag for the pharmacist. Sometimes drugs can interfere with each other because of their side effects. One drug can magnify the other or one drug can magnify a side effect of the other. If you take one medication that says a side effect can raise blood pressure and then you take a second medication with the same side effect, the two together could cause your blood pressure to

HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

get dangerously high. So ask your pharmacist and doctor about side effects, read the written printouts and review and compare them. The RN Care Manager at Innovative Healthcare Consultants is experienced and knowledgeable about reviewing all medications to insure against drug interactions and errors. Her job is to make sure these errors don’t happen for the client. If you’re concerned about a loved one and the possibility of a medication mistake, call us at 760.731.1334 or view our website at innovativehc.com for more information.

People’s Market Celebrates 42 Years!

Born from a small neighborhood buying club that originally met on picnic benches at the foot of Saratoga Street, Ocean Beach People’s Organic Food Market has become known as a truly people-oriented store, a home away from home. From a small group of dedicated volunteers, People’s has grown to be Ocean Beach’s largest employer, with a vision of helping people live in ways that are environmentally sustainable and that promote personal health and well-being. A California food co-operative, People’s is collectively owned by more than 14,000 individuals and families who share common values of democracy, equality, and of course great food! At People’s—San Diego’s only customer owned grocer—shoppers are able to voice their opinions on issues that are relevant to the Market. And, since the Market is customer owned, profits stay local. Stop by Peo-

ple’s this month and celebrate our birthday on August 16, from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. We’ll be grilling outside where you can snack on organic veggie burgers, corn and watermelon, and birthday cake, while enjoying live music performed by the Bryan Gambell Quartet and Billy Lee and the Swamp Critters. Located at 4765 Voltaire Street, where everyone can shop and anyone can join! Open daily from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. (619) 224–1387, obpeoplesfood.coop.

Why Does My Shoulder Hurt?

Treating Rotator Cuff Tendonitis: Symptoms of Rotator Cuff tendonitis/ tenopathy/tendonosis typically include: pain at superior and lateral upper arm with activities of daily living such as reaching overhead and reaching up the back as if to fasten a bra. It is usually uncomfortable to sleep on the affected side and pain will often awake an individual if rolling onto that shoulder during sleep. Often a mid range pain will be experienced when lifting the arm from the side to overhead {Shoulder Abduction}.

Rotator cuff tears in the young adult and adolescent usually occur from sports related trauma, such as sailing, tennis, swimming, volleyball and/or repetitive stress. Tears in an older population are typically a result of poor shoulder girdle/upper back posture and are degenerative in nature. The rotator cuff consist of four muscles the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis that stabilize and depress the humerus within the shoulder socket. Other muscles that are important when discussing the rotator cuff are the serratus anterior and lower trapezius which act as a force couple allowing the scapula (shoulder blade) to rotate correctly with overhead activities. Rotator cuff injury treatment: We focus on decreasing swelling to inflamed or fibrotic tendons, improving range of motion and increasing functional strength of shoulder. Cross friction massage, icing and electric stimulation all work to decrease inflammation to tendons. Manual therapy, such as myofascial release (massage) and joint mobilization will be performed to improve range

of motion. Rotator cuff/Scapula progressive resistance exercises will assist in depressing the scapula, thus improving “cuff space” in the subacromial region. It is imperative that one keeps the mobility of the shoulder intact for often lack of use in the shoulder following a mild tendonitis or rotator cuff strain can lead to subsequent ‘Frozen Shoulder’. Rotator cuff strengthening exercises: to be prescribed by a licensed physical therapist. Rotator cuff exercises include internal/ external rotation with tubing or dumbbells and ‘scaption’ exercises. Seek out a licensed physical therapist if you are experiencing musculoskeletal pain, neurologic symptoms, balance issues and even pelvic floor dysfunctions. We are the experts in treating the above dysfunctions and basically act as your bodies ‘Specialized Mechanic’.

He ranked seventh in the Pacific West Conference with the .356 batting average, while also ranking fourth in stolen bases and seventh in hits. He also put together a team-best 24-game hitting streak. “When the phone rang, it really was one of those moments of shock,” said Harwick. “All of a sudden, you hear those words and it is one of those heart-dropping moments you asked for as a kid. “It was just so great to call my family and tell them (the news),” he said. “It was one of the best experiences of my life.” — Point Loma Nazarene University Athletics Communications Dept.

PEOPLE 21 On vacation with the Peninsula Beacon THURSDAY · AUGUST 14, 2014

THE PENINSULA BEACON

It’s vacation time! Peninsula Beacon readers are heading out of town and taking their favorite hometown paper with them! Take us with you to whatever corner of the world you may be visiting and share your trip with other readers. Tell us your name and/or the names of your family members in the photo and give us a brief description of where the shot was taken. Email the photo and the information to beacon@sdnews.com. It’s that easy! Photos are published based on space constraints and in the order in which they are submitted. Devon and Jake Donlon take their Beacon along for a beautiful view overlooking Honolua Bay in Maui, Hawaii.

Future Point Loma High Pointers Isaac and Noah Chrisman take their favorite hometown newspaper to their beach house in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.

John and JoLynn Collins have fun traveling all over Japan with the Beacon, feeding monkeys, climbing and sleeping on Mount Fuji, being at the grand opening of Harry Potter at Universal Studios and relaxing on the beaches.

At right of photo, from left, Karen Anderson, Casey Anderson, Tommy Foley and Peace Corps volunteer Nick Eggers (a 2003 Point Loma High graduate) pose for a quick roadside picture outside Antisirabe, Madagascar, with a zebu cart driver and a copy of the Beacon. A zebu is a Madagascan cow with a humpback used for food and labor. These carts are the main form of commercial transportation in Madagacar because of the extremely pothole-ridden roads. They have a saying, “When the Mercedes breaks down, the zebu cart keeps rolling.” Nick just finished his two-year service and is currently traveling around Southeast Asia.

Richard and Louise Motta, Barbara Vargas and Gerald and Barbara Hosaka, members of Cabrillo Civic Club No. 16, take their Beacon along as they traveled through the Panama Canal. The shot was taken in Puntarenas, Costa Rica after the group disembarked from their cruise ship for an excursion of the town.

presently is under Israeli military occupation. Odeh is active in numerous proPalestinian groups, including Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS), a global movement seeking Israel’s adherence to what BDS deems as international law supporting Palestinian rights. Baruch Shalom Ezagui is rabbi of Chabad of La Jolla, at 909 Prospect St. Founded in Russia in 1775, Chabad, a branch of Orthodox Judaism, means “wisdom, understanding and knowledge.” Chabad has more than 3,600 institutions in more than 1,000 cities in 70 countries. Chabad Hasidic philosophy focuses on classical Judaic writings and Jewish mysticism, especially the Zohar and the Kabbalah. Odeh and Ezagui have numerous relatives in Israel and the surrounding territories under dispute. Describing Jewish treatment toward Palestinians as a “military occupation” and “apartheid,” Odeh said Palestinians worldwide are calling for an end to the land, air and sea blockade on the Gaza Strip by Egypt and Israel, in effect since 2007. “It’s being choked, strangled economically, socially, legally and politically,” said Odeh of her homeland, which she painted as a “ghetto,” breeding an “intense hopelessness” among Arab-Israelis in Gaza and the West Bank. She described Palestinians as “refugees shoved into a much smaller space or exiled on the borders who are never allowed to become (Israeli) citizens.” Characterizing Israel during its existence as “a diamond in a very rough neighborhood,” Ezagui said the country is “a great illustration of what is possible.”

Noting Israel has literally “risen from the ashes” in carving a homeland out of a barren waste, Ezagui said it’s easy to get lost in the “desert” of politics, which obscures the real “human” issues of the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict. “There will never be peace in the Middle East until the Palestinians learn to love their children more than they hate ours,” said Ezagui, quoting former Israeli prime minister Golda Meir. Ezagui said that instead of getting wrapped up in the endless intrigues of “realpolitik” in the Middle East, the world’s gaze instead should be redirected inward toward self-review and contemplation of the age-old conflict between good and evil. “Both sides have the same focus: to make life better for everyone,” Ezagui said, adding the focus has diverged into “those wanting to better the world and those wanting to drag the world backward. “There will be no peace in this world until we learn to love more than hate,” he said, adding everyone needs to “look in the mirror and ask: ‘What am I doing to make my corner of the world a better and more peaceful place?’” Concerning what needs to happen first to promote peace between Israelis and Palestinians, Odeh said “the blockade must be lifted because people have the right to control their own land, water and air space.” The native Palestinian noted the Israeli blockade contributes to Palestinian social stagnation, which promotes “people becoming fanatics who have to fight.” Asked whether the Palestinian goal is statehood, Odeh replied: “The whole (political) structure has to be made anew.

Chabad of La Jolla rabbi Baruch Shalom Ezagui says the world needs a heavy dose of self-inventory. For personal-safety reasons, a photo of Arab-Israel Lenna Odeh was not taken. Courtesy photo

Israel can’t exist. Palestine can’t exist. It has to be a new creation, a bi-national state. Otherwise, we’ll end up in the same spot where we began, and it will only get worse.” Ezagui agreed that the ultimate goal ought to be unity — not division between the two peoples of Palestine as well as people the world over. “The focus should be on uniting in a common cause to be citizens of the world,” he said, noting, “We all have the same aspirations.”

Assessing the value, demand for your board

Bird’s surf scoop Photo by Goulding/jagmediaproductions.com

Photo by Don Balch

Quite often, I get requests to appraise a surfboard, either from a historical standpoint or a monetary one. Although just about all surfboards are different in a wide variety of ways, the same basic point needs to be touched on. Below is my response to the latest inquiry. I hope you find it of some interest. Howzit Bill? There are generally three types of people who like old boards. One is the investor/collector. These types of folks generally seek out boards in the 8-10 scale of condition. Some are very knowledgeable, but most are not. These people will spend serious dollars on the right board. Another group of buyers is the decor/buyer. They generally know little if anything about boards, using them as props or more of a decorative item. They can spend dollars, but it’s hard to get it out of them. The last group of people is the I want: the “to ride it” group. Condition is of little importance since it’s all about the ride and not the glitz or glamour. As you would expect, this crew operates on a strict budget.

Your board falls into a very limited appeal group, and this is reflected in its value. Finding a badly weathered board and bringing it back to a respectable level is not a hard thing to do. To completely cover an entire board with a hot-coat pigment rather than polishing it to a high luster is a bit time consuming and is generally not a recommended way to go. Yes, you can hide ALL previous damage and sunburned areas. BUT the board loses 90 percent of its soul. No wooden stringer to view or possible markings on that stringer. Money buyers realize this instantly and shy away from it. A decor buyer might step up. Preserving a board by leaving all of its damaged areas exposed is the preferred way to go. The board’s overall condition tells a story and captivates all who look at it as they think about where the board has been and all of the waves that it’s been ridden on. A nice seal job with a lightly sanded finish is very cost-effective, thus making the board more affordable and interesting than one that has been covered up. In this scenario, less is best. Five to six years ago, your board could have sold in the $1,200 range if presented to the right group of buyers. These

days, you’d be looking at a price range of between $600 to $800 — again, if presented to the right group of folks. At the present time, I have a professionally sealed and polished early 1960s Hobie that has a great logo and no less than six stringers. It is priced at $595 and has been here for two months. The board market may recover in time, but I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting. For another gauge of its value and a possible sale, list it on eBay and see who bites and what type of offers are coming in. As is often the case, your local shop or group of beach buddies will tell you I’m nuts and the board is worth big bucks. Every one has an opinion, and they are usually giving it to you for free. Getting the money that people say it’s worth is a whole other ballgame. In closing, I’ll leave you with this: Skip [Frye] does fine work and is a credit to the profession. The board you have is unique in its own way, complete with the stories you have about it. I’d say enjoy all that it has to offer and be proud of what you have helped bring back to life. With respect, Bird
