The long and short board of the record The One Wave Challenge, first of its kind in San Diego, kicked off the Farmers Insurance Open golf tourney at La Jolla Shores on Saturday, Jan. 23 when nearly 200 surfers gathered for the chance to beat the current world record, set six years ago, in Cape Town, South Africa, when 110 surfers rode a single wave to shore. Unfortunately, the local surfers fell a bit short of the record, as only 97 surfers managed to ride one wave. The event, supported by the charitable Century Club, benefited Boys to Men, a San Diego nonprofit dedicated to guiding and supporting often fatherless boys on their journey to manhood.

Community Farmers Open volunteer comes to the right place By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN
COSTCO #452 12350 Carmel Mountain Rd San Diego, CA 92128
If you laid all the spectators at the 2015 Farmers Insurance Open golf tourney end to end (assuming they're an average 5' 6”), they'd stretch from San Diego to Pasadena. Absolutely no kidding. That's a stratospheric 114 miles, and it's a testament to the tournament's prestige. More than 110,000 saw at least part of last year's action on the south course at Torrey Pines Golf Course, where San Diego's most notable outdoor sporting event has been held since 1968. In all that while, volunteerism at the tournament has become its own industry. An army of 100,000 donates its time and talent at PGA events nationwide every year, with the Farmers tilt commanding the help of 850 volunteers over about 28,000 hours. Press materials, grandstand preparation, patron seating and maintenance are among the areas ripe for staffing – indeed, some take up player transport duties in hopes of rubbing elbows with the giants of the game. Enter La Jolla resident and transportation volunteer Bill Jenkins, whose curiosity has brought him to the tournament for the first time. He's played a few holes in his 65 years, though he's not particularly a golfer (his native St. Paul isn't exactly a duffer's paradise this time of year). But as the 2016 Farmers installment unfolds from Jan. 28 to 31, he'll be shuttling the competitors primarily as an expression of community spirit on his and the Open's behalves. “Do you know they have GPS marking the spot of every ball now?” Jenkins said with some surprise. “[Officials] know whose ball it

is and exactly how far it went. There are GPS coordinates all over the course.” The technology is the fun part for him, he said in recounting his work as cofounder of Oakland's Scientific Learning Corporation, a maker of educational software. “But the real reason I volunteered,” he added, “is because of the benefit to the community. It's a privilege giving back, and I appreciate what the tournament does for charities.” Chief among the local benefactors is Century Club of San Diego, a nonprofit group organized to promote the Open. The club's annual net earnings go solely to charitable causes, with a focus on local at-risk youth and youth charities. Under the aegis of the Century Club, the Open distributed $3.1 million to more than 200 charities in 2015; meanwhile, the club's support often goes to The Monarch School, the only American school for students who are homeless or impacted by homelessness. The tournament's Volunteer Challenge, explained club executive

director and tournament head Peter Ripa, is a voter competition designed to recognize the volunteers' commitment. Volunteers reach out to family, friends and co-workers and encourage them to vote for their efforts at pgatour.com/Volunteers. The volunteer with the most votes earns the opportunity to present a $10,000 check to his or her charity of choice from a list provided by the tournament. “Everything that occurs outside the ropes, including transportation and fan experience, is the responsibility of the Century Club,” Ripa said of the Open. “The volunteers make sure the fans and players enjoy their time here. They're also part of the impact we can provide so that the community has a better understanding of the charities.” The Tour has donated more than $2.14 billion nationwide in charitable contributions to date. The Farmers leg could help boost those coffers – this year, the tournament will be shown live on 110 channels in 13 languages worldwide, with potential exposure to 405 million households. It will also be broadcast on CBS, whose San Diego affiliate is KFMB, Ch. 8. Meanwhile, the club's emphasis on people presumably strikes a chord with Jenkins – he volunteers at Torrey Pines Elementary School, which his son attends, and he likes the interactive prospect behind squiring the golfers from station to station. “I'm a pretty social person,” he said about the volunteer area he's chosen, “so I figured I'd enjoy my effort if I was in a role that had more social interaction.” If Jason Day or Phil Mickelson wind up in Jenkins' care, it's their gain. Little do they know that their driver's community spirit speaks for the rest of us. For more information on the tournament, please see farmersinsuranceopen.com.

Surfers celebrate life of Larry Gordon with memorial paddle-out By DAVE SCHWAB Humble. Loving. Spiritual. A friend to the countless lives he touched. Those were just some of the accolades spoken about San Diego surf icon Larry Gordon at a paddle-out celebration of his life attended by about 400 people at Tourmaline Surf Park on Monday, Jan. 18. Gordon, co-founder of Gordon & Smith surf and clothing company, died New Year’s day of Parkinson’s disease at age 76. He built the internationally renowned company into a custom surfboard, skateboard and clothing conglomerate known by surfers worldwide. Gordon and his partner, surf buddy Floyd Smith, were among the first people to make surfboards out of foam, designs that were first crafted in Floyd’s garage when Gordon was a college chemistry student. Many local surfers and board shapers, like Skip Frye, learned their craft at Gordon's side. “To me, he was very special in so many ways,” said Frye. “He was a mentor, who not only showed me the basic steps of shaping a surfboard but allowed me to hone my craft in his company surrounded by craftsmen, a lot of whom have their own successful businesses now.” But Frye said Gordon's personal friendship and love transcended the workplace. “He was a spiritual mentor to me,” he said. “I had some pretty dire times in my life, and I know his prayers got me through. To me that

was the most important thing.” At the paddle-out, Gary Adams described Gordon as a “legend.” Asked why, he replied, “Because he developed the first foam surf boards in San Diego.” Kevin Connelly concurred. “He just had love for everyone in the surf industry,” said Connelly, noting he worked with Gordon as a board shaper at age 17 before recently returning to his employ many years later. “The whole surf industry has been impacted by him,” Connelly said,
adding, "He was just a great person — the love he had for people.” Stephen (The Cowboy) Benson, who lives 50 miles away in Ramona, said he wouldn't have missed Gordon's paddle-out. “He helped my father 50 years ago,” Benson said. “He helped me.” Dessa Kirk related a personal story about Gordon. “It was 7 a.m. Saturday morning, and I noticed a circle of of men standing at Tourmaline,” she said. “They were praying. I asked if I could join. They welcomed me. After
they were finished praying, they introduced themselves. One of them was Larry … Larry encouraged me to explore shaping and follow my own path ... He, like Skip (Frye), thought it was important to give what's been given, to teach others ... His suggestions about shaping were also about life. Larry was a channel, and his craft, I think, was in service of sharing his faith.” Reed Mayne praised Gordon for his “kindness,” adding he truly left his mark in the surf industry. “He provided top-of-the-line

equipment for us to compete in an era when surfboards were changing almost weekly,” Mayne said. “We were kind of the leading-edge in San Diego.” Introducing speakers prior to the paddle-out, Hawaiian minister Ricky Ryan described Gordon's life as “amazing,” noting “the mark of a great man is not so much what he accomplishes in life but the lives he touches. He touched so many of us. With Larry, there was another dimension that made him great: That was the faith he had that sustained him through his life.” Ryan read a scriptural verse that applies to Gordon. “'I have fought the good fight. I have finished the race. I have kept the faith.' … Larry has fought the good fight. He has kept the faith. We are going to celebrate his life. Until we meet again.”
SHORES >> CONT. FROM PG. 1
By DAVE SCHWAB In January, La Jolla Parks and Beaches, Inc. began revising its bylaws to include term limits for its members. The group also heard a report on future plaque placement at Children's Pool before tabling the measure and heard a proposal to compile a dos and dont's list for Scripps Park users. Group chair Dan Allen noted that the possibility of establishing term limits was one of 17 items the group identified in 2013 as issues to be dealt with in a bylaws update being worked on by a parks and beaches subcommittee led by Nancy Linck. Discussion of possible term limits sparked a debate among members over the necessity of having them. Patrick Ahern noted term limits make the process more “democratic” while pointing out it also “helps prevent a takeover by special interests” who otherwise might attempt to stack the board. Judy Halter noted the group has “really turned in a new direction” in considering term limits, adding, “We need as much credibility and transparency as possible.”
Longtime community park planners Debbie Beacham and Melinda Merryweather noted that in the early days of the parks group, it was an effort just to get enough people together for a quorum. Sally Miller warned that if term limits are imposed, people on the board with long-term projects, like Phyllis Minick with Children's Pool walkway improvements and Ann Dynes with Whale View Point Shoreline Enhancement, might be compromised in bringing their community-improvement projects to fruition. A six-year term limits proposal was then passed over as featuring too long a term, with the group majority settling on two four-year terms, with one year in between, as a more reasonable limit. La Jolla Community Planning Association president Cindy Greatrex noted from the audience that term limits have worked well for that group, which makes land-use recommendations to the City. She said term limits have not impeded long-term projects, which are passed along seamlessly from outgoing to incoming trustees. Board member Ken Hunrichs said the general consensus of a group subcom-
mittee studying future placement of plaques honoring donors to Children's Walkway improvements, now under way, said their preferred placement would be on the upper-level plaza near the new lifeguard tower. “That's the most ideal spot, next to the light standard, or into the planter directly in front of it,” Hunrichs said. A group motion was then proposed for the plaques to be placed somewhere in the plaza area of Children's Pool Walkway. But after it was pointed out that there was no deadline and that final placement of improvements in the walkway is yet unclear, the group voted to table the measure instead for another month. Group vice president Bill Robbins, who's been involved in ensuring rules are followed at Scripps Park for special events, suggested a list of ironclad rules needs to be drafted and presented to potential park users to guide them through the process of answering the park group's questions and ensuring park rules are followed. “We delegate you to do some fact-finding,” Allen told Robbins.
on the board. “My family has owned property in the Shores since 1958,” Lucas said. “It's been great serving on the board. I encourage people out there to become active in your community. We've done a lot of good things on this board, and we're very proud of what we've accomplished.” • The association formed an elections subcommittee to get the ball rolling for group elections in March. A total of eight two-yearterm seats will be available in the next election for the 15-member board. • It was noted that Shores' resident Bill Gibbs, the founder of Gibbs Flying School, whose name once graced what is now Montgomery Field, turned 105 recently.
• Heath Fox, the executive director of La Jolla Historical Society, dropped in to clue community planners in on an upcoming historical photo shoot in the Shores. Showing a photo taken in 1906 of cows on La Jolla Shores when the community had a dairy farm, Fox said plans are to retake that shot on property owned by La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club. “We've recruited 11 cows from a Lakeside dairy farm,” Fox said. “They will be transported to the beach and handled by students who are in Future Farmers of America at El Capitan High School." Fox said the historic photo shoot is scheduled to take place Sunday, March 13 during low tide at 7 a.m. on the beach. The group had no problem with Fox's proposal and unanimously endorsed it.
News / Healthy Lifestyles A 90-year-old looks good in leggings Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. Have you been to a mall recently? There is a new uniform: skinny jeans or leggings with boots of various shapes and styles. It is really appealing. I decided that I, too, wanted to look fashionable. I found some old opaque tights — as they were called back in my earlier gym-going days — which still fit because they are stretchy. I splurged on a pair of tall, gray suede boots on sale in a catalog and wore them with a long-sleeved tunic down to midthigh. I thought I looked absolutely smashing. That is just the beginning of the story… My daughter and her husband and son came to visit for a few days from Canada. I thought I would surprise them with how cool a grandmother can look. The feedback from my daughter was, “Mom, you’re going to be 90. You’re an old woman. Why do you want to dress like a teenager?” “Oops!” I replied. “I thought I looked fashionable and contemporary.” “No, mom. You look inappropriately dressed for your age.” I replied, “But my friends at White Sands think I look great.” “Your friends are polite. No one else in your age group dresses this way.” Well, she does have a point — I live in a retirement community, and we
all wear vintage (or whatever still fits). The story continues. The next day, my daughter suggested we sort through my closet. I spent the morning trying on everything I own while my daughter made sartorial decisions about each item. It so happens that I lost some weight recently, so some of the clothes are a bit too large (much to my delight, mind you) but nonetheless wearable. Or so I thought. “No,” she said. “You look like a bag lady.” And so it went into the giveaway pile. Then there were all my pants that used to be fashionably wide; these were also discarded in favor of a few narrower ones. I am not quite 5 feet tall (I used to be 5-foot-4). Capris make me look shorter — so out they go. All my pants need shortening, so I have to wear them pulled up to my bra. Nothing can be belted because my waistline has disappeared. Anything short-sleeved isn’t flattering to my upper arms — out with these, too. Obviously nothing too loose or too tight. Covering my hips is a good thing; so is a high neck that covers that little piece of sagging skin under my chin. The story still does not end there. It turned out that most of my sweaters had spots that I could not see. These were all sent to the cleaners — if deemed redeemable — by that same daughter. Thankfully, we ran out of time to cull my shoes and purses, or I would have ended up walking barefoot. My shoes are comfortable with a slightly shabby look; some of my purses are
only half my age. Weeding through one’s closet is not something one can do alone. It takes a daughter or a very good friend that have both a critical eye and an urge to tell it like it is — the unvarnished truth. Painful, yes; helpful, yes; happy, no! I am fond of my ill-fitting clothes; giving them away feels like a loss. They were hanging there, minding their own business, not hurting anyone, happily taking up space. Thinking that someone else might enjoy them now helps a little. Finally, the end of the story: After she left, I surreptitiously — all the while feeling guilty — looked into the four large donation bags and withdrew a favorite pair of black, baggy, really comfortable pajamalike pants. I also kept one of my husband’s old sweaters — naturally too big on me, but one he particularly liked and looked good in — an old friend that conjures up lots of cherished memories. Note: I am not sending this column to my daughter, and don’t any of you dare do so. The question still remains: Can women my age wear leggings, or are we relegated to some preconceived notion of what mature women are supposed to look like? Readers, please respond. Natasha Josefowitz is the author of more than 20 books and taught the first course on business management for women in the United States. She lives at The White Sands in La Jolla.

The Women’s Museum of California is presenting a head-turning exhibit called “Talking Through Her Hat: Hats and the Women Who Wore Them” through Jan. 31 at Point Loma's Liberty Station. The museum has around eight hats in its collection, many of which are on display, ranging from bonnets to pillboxes to picture hats. The museum presented a VIP opening on Jan. 7. Museum executive director Ashley Gardner was on hand to greet the guests, wearing a '40s Rayon dress with piping, a '20s duster and a stylish '30s hat. Many in the crowd came decked out with hats to view this entertaining and educational exhibit. The exhibit also presented hats from local collectors, with Darlene Davies loaning my all-time favorite
hat to the event. Queen Elizabeth II came to San Diego in 1983, and Davies wore this hat when she and her husband met Her Highness. The Royal Palace forbade the Queen from greeting anyone in a wheelchair, so Darlene's husband Lowell was placed in a period chair from the theater stock. This picture shows the queen warmly taking his hand when she greeted him. The exhibit includes a display with this special hat, the amazing picture with the Queen and a booklet reflecting this extra-special day. A local collector, Lady Janice Martinelli, loaned her Victorian erainspired hats and garments for the exhibit. Martinelli is the president of the National City Historical Society and the curator of the Frank Kimball House Museum. One of Martinelli's specialties is giving Victorian teas at Hannah Lee’s Victoria Tea House, located on Brick Row in La Jolla. As a treat for this exhibit, Martinelli included a High Tea, Edwardian style, on Jan. 23. The Women’s Museum of California, at 2730 Historic Decatur
Road in Liberty Station, collects the contributions of women to educate future generations in its efforts “preserving the past… inspiring the future.” Hours are Wednesdays through Sundays, noon to 4 p.m. For more, see womensmuseumca.org or call (619) 233-7963.
UPCOMING EVENTS WEDNESDAY, FEB. 10: Sydney Evan Trunk Show at Neiman Marcus, 7267 Friars Road in Fashion Valley, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. This renowned jewelry line is made with 14-karat gold and a luxurious mix of precious and semiprecious stones. FRIDAY, MARCH 4: GO RED for Women to benefit the American Heart Association, at Fairmont Grand Del Mar, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with a fashion show by Zandra Rhodes. For tickets, visit ahasandiego.ejoinme.org.

A dilemma, to be sure San Diego Symphony is amid its sixth annual Chamber Music Series, congruent with its current, cleverly named Upright & Grand piano festival, evidenced by the gaily painted upright instrument in the symphony hall lobby. Sit down, make yourself at home and play. Featured Upright & Grand pianist Jeremy Denk (he played the “Emperor” Concerto Jan. 16 and 17 with the orchestra) recently released an exquisite recording of J. S. Bach’s Goldberg Variations, so what could be better than presenting him in a chamber music series performance of these divine masterworks during Upright & Grand! Knowing that Denk and the unaccompanied Variations would sell too many seats for the recital if it were held in the usual Chamber Music Series site (The Auditorium at the Scripps Research Institute), the orchestra merely limited seating at the Jacobs Music Center downtown to the two center sections of the orchestra, which were nicely filled Jan. 19. The man, the 30 variations on Bach’s aria and the instrument were enough despite the fact that, as my companion remarked, the hall is not ideal for a piano recital. I, too, found some of the finer articulations blurred. Be that as it may, the audience was exceptionally quiet, still and attentive, and the playing was absolutely splendid. Oh, what worlds we traveled in our circuit from the first statement to the last iteration.
Free Poetry at the Globe In conjunction with its production of the “translaptated” French farce “The Metromaniacs,” The Old Globe Theatre presents a free poetry Festival titled “Poetry on the Plaza” at 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 13 and 14, joining local literary luminaries Gill Sotu, Karla Cordero, Jim Moreno, Joe Limer and Lizz Huerta. On Sunday only, “Metromaniacs” actor Adam LeFevre will join the other poets. In addition to his extensive theatrical credits, LeFevre recently published a third volume of poems, “A Swindler’s Grace.” Both poetry events are free and open to the public. Pray for sunshine. theoldglobe.org. We’ve seen a rash of plays lately in which time is treated rather cavalierly. Case in point: When the curtain goes up on Australian playwright Andrew Bovell’s “When the Rain Stops Falling” (from Cygnet Theatre in Old Town through Feb. 14), a fish falls from the sky in Alice Springs, Australia. It’s not just any fish; it’s an extinct fish, and it’s as fresh as it was the day it hatched. The acclaimed 2008 play concerns four generations of the same family, searching for truth on two continents in 2039 and 1959. Thinking ticketholders may need a little help, Cygnet emailed audience study guides the week of Jan. 18. The company includes Tom Stephenson, Rosina Reynolds and Rachael VanWormer. Associate artistic director Rob Lutfy directs. cygnettheatre.com. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

The Promiscuous Fork: There's method, and a whole lot of fun, in the madness By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN
WILD NIGHT AT THE ESTANCIA All eyes were on Kieron Elliott, ambassador and whisky master of Macallan and Highland at Estancia La Jolla Hotel and Spa's latest Wild Game & Scotch Whisky Dinner, held Jan. 21. Elliott provided a wealth of knowledge on Scotch whisky while entertaining guests with amusing tales. The event featured a four-course pairing of Macallan's finest single malts, served neat, and a menu featuring boar, venison and other wild game. Following dinner, the Payne Mason cigar bar provided the ultimate nightcap under the stars. The hotel is at 9700 North Torrey Pines Road. For more, see estancialajolla.com. PHOTO BY MIKE FAHEY
THE PROMISCUOUS FORK
We have it on good authority that almost nobody knows the history behind the ice-cream soda – and in the interest of full disclosure, we feel it's our duty to outline the facts as we have them. The item was invented in the late 19th century by Bob Green, who operated a Philadelphia soda shop and used carbonated water, milk and syrup in his signature entry. Word on the street is he ran out of milk one day and was forced to use ice cream in its place. Two things happened: Green's daily earnings soon went from $6 to $600, and, quite by chance, he'd introduced an American marketplace staple that's recently seen modest consumer accep-

tance as far away as Mars. The fact of the matter is that you might run into an equally once-unheralded classic at The Promiscuous Fork. Serendipity is the entrée du jour at this burger/sandwich/salad place, as both a marketing tool and a philosophy. The self-proclaimed “fun foodie joint” delights in seat-ofthe-pants concoctions – and in
the spirit of Green's accidental discovery, you'll have fun exploring textures and tastes you never knew existed (because until now, they didn't). The staff combines bits and pieces of entries from Mexico, Hawaii and the Southwest to create innovative takes that stand for themselves. Consider, for example, the Kailua pork quesadilla.

SAN DIEGO COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER GROUP | FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, 2016 | SDNEWS.COM
Drought-friendly Lion's Tail is aptly named More than 20 years ago, I purchased a tiny Lion's Tail at Mission Hills Nursery and planted it in a corner of our front yard. By the next season, the plant had grown to about five feet tall and was covered with eye-catching orange flowers that continually bloomed for most of the year. When people pass by, they always seem to notice this plant and its unusual flowers, and they ask me about it. While I knew its name, I realized I knew very little about the plant and decided to learn more. Native to South Africa, Lion's Tail (Leonotis leonurus) is a perennial herbaceous shrub related to the mint family, and it received its nickname because its fuzzy orange flowers resemble the tuft at the end of a lion's tail. The plant's unusual flowers attract hummingbirds, bees and butterflies, and its leaves give off a
minty smell when brushed against or cut. While the most common flower color is orange, some varieties come in white (alba) and yellow. Lion's Tail is a drought-tolerant plant and will grow in almost any type of soil as long as the soil drains well. This is a plant that thrives with little water, and if you water it too often, the leaves will yellow, and its overall appearance will be poor. Plant Lion's Tail in a sunny area of the garden that receives at least six hours of sunshine a day, and it will aggressively grow from five to seven feet. As the petals of the flowers fade, a round thistlelike seed pod forms, and if you allow the pod to dry out and turn brown, you can cut it off and harvest the seeds by shaking them out.
RESIDENTIAL BROKERAGE
By LINDA MARRONE
The seed pod has sharp spikes, so wear gloves when handling them. Along the coast, seeds can be planted in late winter. Each January, I cut my Lion's Tail back to about six inches above the soil, and right now it looks like dead twigs sticking out of the soil. By early spring, the plant will come back to life, shoot up and produce an abundance of green leaves and round flower buds. Flowers will begin to open by late spring, and by summer it is in full glorious bloom. I fertilize my Lion's Tail each spring with an all-purpose organic fertilizer, which seems to keep it happy and blooming for the rest of the year. During the summer, I prune back its branches and shape the plant, since it can grow out of shape quick-
ly. The long spikes of bright orange flowers are nice to use in floral arrangements. While reading about this plant, I was surprised to learn that some consider Lion's Tail similar to, and use it as a replacement for, cannabis. There are also many warnings about allergic reactions and that the plant can be toxic if taken in too high a dose. That said, I guess the best "high" to get from this plant would be from admiring it and its unique, beautiful and ever-blooming flowers! Linda is a Realtor with Coldwell Banker in La Jolla. Pictures of her garden have been published in local and national magazines. Take a tour of her garden at LindaMarrone.com.
The Lion's Tail's fiery orange flowers clash strikingly with your garden's greenery. Meanwhile, young Lion’s Tail seed pods look sort of like tiny beehives. PHOTOS BY LINDA MARRONE

26th annual Jewish Film Festival: Everybody knows their names By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN
FILM FESTIVAL VENUES
Richard Nixon, such as he was, called psychologist Timothy Leary “the most dangerous man in America.” Other people felt the same – amid his legendary experimentation with psychoactive drugs, Leary would see time in 30 jails during the 1960s and '70s. Controversy also dealt a blow to his livelihood; he and fellow researcher Richard Alpert left their Harvard University teaching positions in 1963 (Alpert was let go for dispensing a drug; reports conflict as to whether Leary was fired or quit). Fade to 1996, the year Leary died, at age 75. Alpert would eulogize his friend as “my first profound spiritual teacher” – and he knew of what he spoke. Also known as culture figurehead Ram Dass, he got the latter name (Hindi for “servant of God”) during his travels to Nepal and India. He would write “Be Here Now,” the 1971 book on spirituality and meditation; in 2014, he was featured in the film “Dying to Know: Ram Dass and Timothy Leary,” which explores death, faith and the men's unique spiritual bond. You can see the movie, part of the 26th annual San Diego Jewish Film Festival, on Thursday, Feb. 11, at the David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre in La Jolla's Jewish Community Center; it will show again on the 14th at the Clairemont Reading 14. The Gay Dillingham-directed entry is particular to this event because Alpert, now 84, is Jewish – and it's one of some 40 films that explore the concept of Judaism in popular thought. Other entries will be shown between Feb. 4 and 14 at La Jolla's ArcLight Cinemas and at venues in Carlsbad and San Marcos. The festival's PR material touts the event's “Jewish-themed” aspects, those that reflect Judaism as both a religious and cultural marker. Craig Prater, film festival director, called

beef, yes; veggies, of course – but pig? That makes for one fun tortilla, with Hawaii and Mexico crossing paths, incredibly, on mainland soil. Lamb with balsamic vinegar. Jalapeños and crème sauce. Mozzarella cheese on multigrain bread. The place is a crazyquilt of innovation – and nowhere are those criteria more handsomely met (or a food item more aptly named) than with the Yuck-Mouth, a famously garlicky burger that the Fork dares serve with onion. By all means, take unfettered delight in this one – just be warned that

Richard Alpert, known in popular culture as Ram Dass, embraced his Judaism when he reasoned he wasn't born into it by accident. PHOTO CONTRIBUTED
“Dying to Know” an ideal expression of each facet. Alpert's religion, for example, fueled his eventual embrace of Leary's tenets – on top of that, everybody in our culture knows those guys' names. “We have so many international film groups that may or may not be Jewish,” Prater said, “but they're interested in learning different cultures that make their film viewing experience broader. “I believe that is what makes a Jewish film festival unique to other festivals. So many of our films refer to specific history down through the years, cultural things that may influence storylines. Same with Italian film. Some of them might emphasize food or something, but like Jewish film, the history is so
you and your companion should know each other seriously well amid the odiferous aftereffects. The Fork opened a section venue in Pacific Beach's Crown Point area, seeking to capitalize on the success it's met in La Jolla. PB'ers are pretty devil-may-care about stuff, so the Fork should match up nicely. Growth begets growth, after all, as someone in the restaurant business (probably) once declared. My money says it was soda man Green, who knew something about risk and improvisation. The Promiscuous Fork staff is making its way accordingly, with the Green-inspired fun alive and well.
much greater.” Indeed. The first mention of Judaism dates to two centuries before Jesus Christ, and history takes it from there. The faith and its cultural components have outlived some languages and countries amid dizzying evolutions in music, art, politics, war and religion. In “Dying to Know,” for example, Alpert explains that his strict Jewish upbringing led to his friendship with Leary and a larger view of the religious experience. “I came out of the Jewish faith,” he had said at Leary's eulogy, “and when I met Krishna, I was just flabbergasted that God would be singing and dancing and playing tricks on [Krishna's homies]. It just didn't compute.”

of the latest agreement, adding, “It is not consistent with police and fire. But it will provide better protection than we have had in the past.” Harris pointed out lifeguards “are going to be protected again for things like meningitis, tuberculosis, hernia and pneumonia. That's a very good thing.” Noting lifeguards “are part of the fire department,” Harris added, “It is our continued position that we fall under state law and should be fully covered under the Labor Code.” After months of intensive negotiations, Teamsters Local 911 and the Lifeguard union leadership received its most recent proposal from the City of San Diego on presumptive illness
On the other hand, he said, fate would eventually lead to his embrace of the faith. "My belief,” he told the Religious News Service in 1992, “is that I wasn't born into Judaism by accident, and so I needed to find ways to honor that. From a Hindu perspective, you are born as what you need to deal with, and if you just try and push it away, whatever it is, it's got you." If Alpert's story isn't exactly ripped from the headlines, Mideast conflict certainly is. The film “Rock in the Red Zone” is a case in point – it focuses on the Israeli town of Sderot, at once the birthplace of a revolution in Israeli rock music and a constant target of mortar fire from the Gaza Strip.
coverage protections following City Council closed session. The lifeguards union has been engaged in a public information campaign for the last six months. With the El Niño season fast approaching and the potential for severe health exposures to lifeguards skyrocketing, the local believed it was in membership's best interest to seriously consider the city's most recent offer. That offer, now approved, will provide coverage for short-term illness and injury. But it does not address, in the lifeguards' view, the long-term health effects of exposure to contaminated water, sewage and chemicals. The offer also fails to provide coverage for other things. “The bad side of it,” Harris said, “is
“Younger audiences zero in on this one,” Prater said. “The rock stuff gets their attention, but there are so many scenes involving risk-taking in the areas where anything can happen at any time.” The town's many pleasant public art pieces, as well as its bus stops, double as bomb shelters – yet its musical spirit survives. So too does Judaism's place in the human experience. The world's 14 million Jews make up less than 0.2 percent of the global population, yet their mark on American society is as phenomenal as death, the core topic in “Dying to Know.” “We've moved (dying) from ICU wards to hospice and then maybe to something deep and profound,” Alpert says, “but [for Leary] to make it fun? What chutzpah!... [That's] a major statement for this society.” And amid his trials with society and faith, Alpert has an infallible take on the afterlife, born of a uniquely Jewish perspective. “If I had to choose between suffering and joy,” he asserts, “boy, I know where I'm going. I'm joy, joy all the way.” For a schedule of films and more on the festival, see sdcjc.org/sdjff/.
things that are more serious and could kill you, like heart attack and cancer, we don't get. But we'll keep trying for it. This doesn't end the conversation or the effort.” Harris said this most recent contract vote “makes it very clear that members of the fire department are covered presumptively, though it's a choice on how that's interpreted.” Harris said San Diego is “the first lifeguard agency to get presumptive coverage in California.” This most recent ratification will be an addendum to the current contract between the City of San Diego and the Lifeguards. Teamsters Local 911 has a membership of 9,000 across Southern California and is an affiliate of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.
