Miller pleads not guilty in mall stabbing

By DAVE SCHWAB

By NEAL PUTNAM

Mt. Soledad Veterans Memorial Association's mission is to create and maintain a monument paying homage to veterans who've honorably served our country and to educate the public on the contributions of military personnel throughout our nation's history. And recent developments are contributing toward that end. Most important, after more than two decades of controversy, the area immediately surrounding the landmark 40-foot-tall cross is privately owned. It was a watershed year in 2015 for the association. “We took possession of the memorial from the federal government as a result of the Defense Appropriations Act of 2014,” said Lou Scanlon, the association's chief executive. “The association paid the government a little more than $1.4 million and now owns the memorial and the property within the inner sidewalk that encircles the memorial.” Since taking ownership, the association has also brought electricity to the site and lit the United States flag, which was previously

The suspect accused of repeatedly stabbing a biotech executive near the Westfield UTC in 2014 has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. Odie James Miller, Jr., now 22, has another psychiatric evaluation set for June 28 from jail. He returned from Patton State Hospital months ago after a judge and doctors determined he was mentally competent to stand trial. Deputy District Attorney Geoff Allard said Tuesday a trial date will be set on July 21 in San Diego Superior Court. The concept of insanity is separate from mental competency to stand trial. If a jury found he was insane at the time of the crime, he would be committed to a state mental hospital. Miller is accused of attempted murder and assault of the 44year-old victim on Aug. 6, 2014. He was stabbed several dozen times at 12:15 p.m. in the vicinity of Renaissance Avenue and Towne Centre Drive. Miller did not know the victim, and so far, it appears to be a random attack. Miller’s father said at the time his son has a mental illness and was off his medications at the time of the attack.

Council hopefuls for District 1 tout similar views at May 9 debate By DAVE SCHWAB Four candidates for the District 1 City Council seat touted their strengths at a public forum May 9 at La Jolla Community Center. Entrepreneurs Barbara Bry and Ray Ellis stressed their business acumen. Kyle Heiskala, an aide to District 1 Councilwoman Sherri Lightner, who terms out in November, stressed his youthful vigor and commitment to public service. Louis Rodolico, a retired architect from Philadelphia, made it clear he favors building a bridge over Regents Road in University City, a controversial proposal delayed by years of community protests and litigation by environmental groups. Rodolico said building the bridge is essential to saving lives and improving emergency vehicular access. City Council District 1 covers the northwest part of the city of San Diego and includes the communities of La Jolla, University City, Torrey Pines, Torrey Hills, Carmel Valley, Del Mar Mesa and Pacific Highlands Ranch. The debate was moderated by La Jolla community activist Cindy Greatrex. The vote is scheduled for Tuesday, June 7, primary day in California. In opening statements, Bry, a hightech entrepreneur, said she was running for public office because “I love our community and want to make

sure we keep it safe, clean and prosperous for our children and grandchildren.” Ellis, stressing his background with nonprofits and the city's Pension Board, said “I've spent more than 20 years as a volunteer working on tough issues in communities, including getting abused and neglected children out of the revolving door of foster care and into safe, stable homes.” Rodolico, a recently retired hospital architect, said he's running “because I want to make a positive difference in our community.” Heiskala, a latecomer to the race, said he is running to “serve the public and because I have a passion for problem solving.” There was much commonality in the candidates' views. All were in favor of restricting short-term vacation rentals (STVRs) in single-family neighborhoods. “I've been very clear about opposing them in our residential areas,” said Ellis, who believes the rentals should be relegated to commercial districts. He suggested conditional use permits be used to spell out what is allowed with rental transactions. “I don't have a problem with renting out a room in your house or renting your home while you're away on vacation,” said Bry. “But I'm against permanent mini-hotels in residential neighborhoods.” Heiskala favors keeping the rentals “out of residential neighborhoods and

increasing fees to help out with code enforcement.” “We need some sort of database where every STVR can be tracked and managed, which is good governance,” Rodolico said. None of the candidates favors the current proposal by the San Diego Chargers to raise transient occupancy taxes paid by hotel guests to fund a “convadium,” a proposed football stadium and expanded convention center in downtown San Diego. “I don't want any new taxes for a stadium,” said Rodolico, adding he felt the Chargers proposal was “smoke and mirrors.” “I love the Chargers, but we have bigger challenges to tackle,” said Heiskala. “I don't support the convadium plans; it would be the largest tax increase in San Diego's history,” said Ellis. “I'm against any taxpayer funding for the San Diego Chargers; I believe we have better uses for this money,” said Bry. Only Ellis was not in favor of the current local initiative to require a minimum wage hike up to $15 to be phased in over the next several years. “Raising the minimum wage to $15 would put us at a competitive disadvantage with other cities, and I don't want to lose any jobs in the city of San

Shores group discusses city’s use of controversial herbicide, MAD plan By DAVE SCHWAB Highlights of the La Jolla Shores Association May 11 meeting included discussion about the city's continued use of an allegedly carcinogenic lawn-care product in local parks and a proposal to form a Maintenance Assessment District (MAD) for community improvement. “Roundup used on grass in parks has been deemed unsafe to use by the state of California,” said association board member Terry Kraszewski. “Now that it's considered unsafe to use, we are hoping it will be discontinued.” “The city will continue to use it until they have certain documents

that say it can't be used,” replied association chair Nick LeBeouf. Justin Garver, District 1 staff representative, said he believed the flagship Monsanto lawn product, routinely used in public parks like Kellogg and Laureate in the Shores, is tied up in litigation and that the product will continue to be used by the city until that issue is resolved in the courts. Meanwhile, noted Kraszewski, “Our pets and our children playing in the parks are contacting it. We ought to be the first to be out in front in discontinuing its use.” California’s Environmental Protection Agency has issued plans to list glyphosate, the toxic active ingredi-

ent in the herbicide, as a carcinogen. According to a notice of intent issued recently, the effort falls under California’s Proposition 65, in which the state is required to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The state agency’s announcement follows a March classification of glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic to humans.” Roundup is sprayed on crops all over the world and is the most popular weed killer in the United States. The agribusiness giant maintains the safety of its product and has demanded reports of its being harmful be retracted.

Theodore Roosevelt is guest of honor as Mt. Soledad memorial set for May 30

CROSS >> CONT. FROM PG. 1

United States Navy Capt. Craig Clapperton, commanding officer of the USS Theodore Roosevelt, homeported in Coronado, will be the keynote speaker on Memorial Day, Monday, May 30, at the Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial. The event, beginning at 2 p.m. will honor Theodore Roosevelt, 26th president of the United States. Clapperton is a native of Pittsburgh and a graduate of the Pennsylvania State University with a bachelor of science in aerospace engineering. He was commissioned in 1989 and designated a naval flight officer in 1991. In 2008, he earned a Master of Arts in national strategy and security studies from the Naval War College in Newport, R.I. and was a member of the college's Stockdale Group. He is a distinguished graduate of the Navy Nuclear Power Training Command, completing his training in 2010. He previously served as executive officer of the Harry S Truman and participated in operations Enduring Freedom and New Dawn. Roosevelt was the youngest man to ever hold the presidency of the United States. Following the assassination of William McKinley in September of 1901, he succeeded to the presidency at age 42 and was elected to a full term in 1904. A true American statesman, explorer, soldier, naturalist and reformer, Roo-

sevelt has also been widely viewed as the country’s most energetic president. He clearly enjoyed being president and during his term established the U.S. Forest Service and the first five national parks, set forth the process to build the Panama Canal and, as a leader of the Republican party, became a driving force for the Progressive era in the United States. He was a magna cum laude graduate of Harvard University and the author of more than 30 books, including the four-volume “Winning of the West,” “The Naval War of 1812” and “Autobiography,” all of which are considered classics. In “The Rough Riders,” he tells the story about the United States 1st Voluntary Calvary, which he organized after resigning as assistant secretary of the Navy. Roosevelt will be commemorated by Phil Roosevelt, great-grandson of Emlen Roosevelt, who was a first cousin of Theodore and his lifelong financial advisor. Phil Roosevelt is managing editor of Barron’s, the Dow Jones’ weekly magazine. The Mt. Soledad Memorial Day ceremony includes music by the MCRD Marine Corps Band and MCRD Color Guard and Rifle Team. As in years past, a fly-by conducted by the San Diego Performance Team Aircraft will cross over the memorial following the keynote address, executing the traditional Missing

Man formation. Attendees are encouraged to arrive early. Old Town Trolley will provide complimentary shuttle service to and from the memorial from the parking lots of nearby Mt. Soledad Presbyterian Church, 6551 Soledad Mountain Road, and The French American School, 6550 Soledad Mountain Road. More than 4,200 tributes to individual veterans, living and deceased, are embedded on black granite plaques and mounted onto 11 curved walls and honor United States veterans who have served our country from the days of Revolutionary War up to the current conflicts in the Middle East. The memorial stands on La Jolla’s Mt. Soledad, offering panoramic views of San Diego, the mountains, the Pacific Ocean and Mexico. The Mt. Soledad Memorial Association owns and operates the memorial and its website, at soledadmemorial.com. The association office is at 565 Pearl St., Suite 301; the telephone number is (858) 459-2314. The memorial is open daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.

families are being increasingly squeezed by inflation. Heiskala supports raising the minimum wage, noting, “Our cost of living has gone up, but wages have not kept pace, and we need to adjust that accordingly.” In closing remarks, Rodolico warned that the Regents Road Bridge “needs to be built.” Heiskala said he has three priorities, including “protecting the envi-

ronment, increasing public safety and improving public transportation and connecting it with affordable housing.” “I want to bring my leadership skills to collaborate with others to protect our quality of life and enhance it along the way,” said Ellis. “I believe that, working together, we can make a difference,” said Bry. “I would be honored to have your vote on June 7.”

In his president's report, LeBeouf proposed setting in motion the process of creating a MAD to do Shores public improvements. “Month after month,”he said, “we talk about changes. Some happen. Some don't happen.” LeBeouf said a Shores MAD would help “fund projects we don't get done due to lack of funding.” Citing successful creation of a Bird Rock MAD that's funded traffic roundabouts and their maintenance, LeBeouf added, “I think the board should really consider the MAD to answer a lot of problems that don't get answers with the city.” LeBeouf suggested board members consider his proposal, which is

raised at sunrise and lowered at sunset by association volunteers. The association has also relocated its office from the mountaintop to 565 Pearl St. The nonprofit association also has plans to embark on a fundraising campaign to sustain and improve the memorial site as part of its mission to commemorate and honor the services and sacrifices of our military veterans and educate the public lest the veterans’ sacrifices be taken for granted. The refurbishment of the memorial site has begun with the restoration of the site's iconic cross, which was erected in 1954, including a sorely needed sandblasting and paint job. The idea is to “polish” the memorial site to make it worthy of competing for the attention of locals and visitors alike with other San Diego landmarks, like the Coronado Bridge and the San Diego Zoo. “It's such an iconic site with such great views of the city all around,” said Scanlon, noting the association is partnering with the USS Midway to “make the memorial a destination for people to go and honor the veterans who've donated their services to this country.” The preponderance — and significance — of the military in San Diego is also on plain view at the memorial site. “Once atop Mt. Soledad, no matter what direction you look, you can see military and former military installations throughout the region — Rosecrans Cemetery and Point Loma Submarine Base, Naval Station North Island, the 32nd Street Naval Station, et cetera,” said Scanlon. Aside from its cross, the Mt. Soledad Memorial is best known for its shimmering black granite plaques honoring veterans for their service. “Right now, there are around 4,200 plaques on walls up there,” said Vietnam veteran Bob Mul-

to be revisited at a later association meeting. LeBeouf also suggested, with super-busy July Fourth drawing near, that the association board be proactive in creating and posting signs warning visitors that “overnight camping is not allowed. We need to form a committee to get those signs up on July 3.” “Teamwork makes the dream work,” concluded LeBeouf, adding, “It starts here — and works its way up.” The next association meeting will be Wednesday, June 11 at 6:30 p.m. in Building T-29 at Scripps Institution of Oceanography.

rooney, who's volunteered as a memorial docent helping people navigate the site. “Each one tells a story.” While a docent, Mulrooney developed a handbook answering frequently asked questions about the association and its memorial. “The primary job of docents is to welcome people to the cross and answer their questions,” he said, adding docents typically pull threeor four-hour shifts. Mulrooney said docents also give standard tours of memorial plaques imparting a bit of American history to guests along the way. “We have everyone from privates to presidents up there on those plaques,” he said. “Currently, there are 15 Medal of Honor recipients there, 55 husband-and-wife combinations and plaques for five former presidents.” There is also one individual not a veteran during his life who's memorialized on the plaque walls: Bob Hope, who entertained U.S. troops overseas for many years. “What many people don't realize is that you don't have to be dead to have a plaque on the Mt. Soledad Memorial,” said Scanlon. “Anyone who's served and been honorably discharged, alive or dead, is eligible to have a plaque.” Scanlon said families of vets purchase a plaque for a living veteran then surprise him or her with a “plaque raising” ceremony, with the association's participation. The association is gearing up for its Memorial Day event, to be held Monday, May 30 at 2 p.m. President Theodore Roosevelt will be honored with a plaque, and Craig Clapperton, captain of the USS Roosevelt, will be guest speaker (see the related story on this page).

Regional tourism plans threaten overall economy in San Diego A new Harry Potter-themed attraction in Universal City could cut into San Diego tourism dollars along the way. New tourist attractions in Los Angeles and Anaheim are posing a threat to the continued growth of San Diego’s tourism industry and its impact on the region’s overall economy, according to tourism officials speaking at the annual meeting of the San Diego Tourism Authority (SDTA) on May 4. While San Diego’s tourism numbers have risen steadily over the past two years, tourism officials warned of threats on the horizon that could stymie the region’s ability to keep pace with competing visitor destinations such as Los Angeles and Anaheim. In both cities, blockbuster attractions have recently opened or are under development. At Universal Studios in Los Angeles, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter debuted last month to tens of thousands of fans, while just down the way in Anaheim, the Disneyland Resort is moving forward with its colossal 14acre Star Wars Land. “The tourism landscape is more competitive than ever,” said Joe Terzi, president and CEO of the San

Diego Tourism Authority. “These new attractions, combined with enormous tourism marketing budgets for nearby destinations and attractions, pose a threat to San Diego’s market share and our ability to grow San Diego’s second-largest traded economy.” “The importance of tourism to our region’s economy and our prosperity cannot be overstated,” said Mark Cafferty, president and CEO of the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation, who spoke at the annual meeting. “And because tourism is highly competitive, we must continue to tell our story to attract visitors and businesses from across the globe.” Tourism officials said two proposed ballot measures — the socalled Citizens plan and the Chargers stadium plan — threaten to reduce the amount of funding for tourism marketing while significantly increasing the hotel tax rate to fund a stadium. Leaders from the local tourism economy have long pushed for an expansion of the existing bayside convention center because current and potential clients have expressed their strong preference for a single contiguofa-

To keep San Diego competitive, the SDTA in January launched a $10 million advertising campaign that targets several major U.S. cities as well as Canada and the United Kingdom. It includes television spots as well as print, digital and billboard advertising. In addition, the SDTA recently

launched its latest installment of “Guides to the Good Stuff,” an online video series that spotlights San Diego’s exciting nightlife, internationally acclaimed craft breweries, diverse cross-border culinary scene and local food offerings at Petco Park. “The tourism economy here employs one in every eight San Die-

gans and generates hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenue,” said Terzi. “To keep San Diego competitive, we can’t afford to lose one dime of tourism marketing funds. Whether you’re selling cars, computers or visitor destinations, marketing and advertising are vital to your success and survival.”

Business Storefront facelift grants available from city, merchants told

FRIDAY · MAY 20, 2016 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

In May, La Jolla Village Merchants Association got a report from the city about a grant program to assist small businesses in improving their curb appeal. Alissa Gabriel told the board of the Business Improvement District that small businesses with 25 or fewer employees are eligible to apply for the city's Storefront Improvement Program. The program offers free design

assistance and a grant equal to onehalf of improved expenses up to $8,000. Gabriel said the program is primarily to “help mostly small businesses fix up the storefronts of their buildings. The point is to help give yourself a new look.” Gabriel said the improvement program has over the years helped some 400 businesses spruce up their appearance.

“Many kinds of improvements, from awnings to lighting to paint colors, surface materials, landscaping, windows, sidewalk cafes and parklets, are all eligible for the program,” Gabriel said. Asked by board member Michael Dorvillier if sidewalks qualified, Gabriel responded, “No; storefront improvements, stuff that usually doesn't require permits that helps get businesses going, that's the usual

stuff in the program.” For more information on storefront improvement assistance, visit sandiego.gov/storefront or call (619) 236-6460. In his president's report, CA Marengo talked about the public right of way and La Jolla's Planned District Ordinance (PDO), the community's blueprint for commercial development. “I want to re-emphasize that

All the PDOs are going to be merged into the land development code. We'll see how long that takes.” The association’s next meeting will be June 8 at 3 p.m. at La Jolla Riford Library, 7555 Draper Ave.

La Jolla restaurant robbed amid unaware patrons

Bill Walton sculpture as large as his life A lifesize bronze sculpture of legendary San Diego athlete Bill Walton was unveiled Saturday, May 14 at Ski Beach Park in Mission Bay. Walton, a lifelong cycling enthusiast, is commemorated in bronze with his bicycle. The statue stands 6 feet, 11 inches tall and weighs 1,200 pounds. Alison Brown, the bronze sculptor who created the monument, took exact measurements of Walton’s bicycle, his

shoes and other personal items. These were carefully replicated in the finished work, a lifesize, highly detailed replica of the man himself. Walton led the UCLA Bruins to national championships in the early 1970s before joining the NBA and playing for the Portland Trail Blazers, San Diego Clippers and Boston Celtics. Walton won two NBA championships and was named the NBA’s most

valuable player. He was eventually inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame and named as one of the NBA's 50 greatest players of all time. ‘In clay, every fingerprint, every detail created in the sculpture is transferred into bronze. When the sculpture is ultimately cast, the finished monument reflects every tiny detail in bronze,’ said Brown. PHOTO BY JIM GRANT

A man burst through the back door and robbed employees at a popular La Jolla restaurant the evening of May 9 as customers, unaware of the incident, sat and ate. According to police, the gunwielding man was seen casing area businesses before robbing Chedi Thai Bistro on Pearl Street near Eads Avenue around 9 p.m. He ran from the scene with stolen cash and remains at large. Nobody was injured during the incident. Police described the suspect as black, in his 20s, about 5 feet 8 and 160 pounds. He had short curly hair and was wearing a gray long-sleeved shirt and brown shorts.

Diabetes can lead to Alzheimer’s disease, La Jolla researchers find By HANNA LAUKKANEN The workable human brain was not created to last 70 to 90 years. That’s why our brains have different neurologic diseases when we age, like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's. Senior associate Karthik Bodhinathan and postdoctoral associate Mohammed Waseem Akhtar are researching new medical care for Alzheimer’s disease at La Jolla’s Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute. “There aren’t very good drugs out

there,” Bodhinathan explains, “and even the ones that are out, they hit multiple targets, which mean they cure what you need but also create side effects, like depression and suicidal behavior. My job is to see if we can refine them.” Akhtar is finding out more about the link between Alzheimer's and diabetes. “Generally,” he says, “the people with diabetes have roughly two times higher the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.” There are several reasons for that,

he says, but the main reason centers on the sugar level in diabetic patient. High levels affect neuronal function and causes dysfunction in the powerhouses of the brain. “In the diabetic brain, you see that they decline in learning and memory, which is what you see in an Alzheimer’s brain,” Akhtar notes. Bodhinathan is researching the chemicals that affect the brain in prior unknown ways. It’s a big challenge, he says, because most times the drugs don’t do what researchers predict. Researchers change the

chemistry, fueling a lengthy retesting process. “I’m trying to see if we can use the brain’s different mechanism to clear these toxic proteins in the brain,” Bodhinathan says. “They attract more proteins, and they become this big gob in the brain – and we believe that once we attack those clusters, we will be able to cure the disease.” In 2012, Alzheimer’s disease research resulted in some hope with a trial run by two clinical companies. They came up with an anti-

body to remove the protein from brains affected by Alzheimer's. Unfortunately, the trials failed, because the patients did not improve in terms of memory problems. Several new tests are slated for this year. “This is one disease where we don’t have any successful molecules,” Bodhinathan says. “We need only one molecule to start with, and then we can build up on that. As my friend tells me, failure is just one step towards the ultimate goal.”

Our kids need the newest stuffed toy, the newest video game; amusement parks advertise their newest ride; and of course we all need the latest smart phone. We want continual improvement. I often say that I sit on a learning curve. Mae West once said: “So many men; so little time.” I say: “So many books; so little time.” A friend of mine recently said he does not read newspapers or listen to the news; he is more concerned about his spiritual life, about his relationships, about the good he can do. I, on the other hand, feel obligated to know about the latest brain research and what is going on internationally. Why? Is it so that I feel informed about my world, not sound stupid at the next dinner conversation? Or maybe both? I am equally intrigued by the cosmic photos sent by the Hubble space telescope as by the Large Hadron Collider’s pursuit of the smallest particle. I am not a has-been. I am a will-be and will probably have an

identity crisis on my deathbed! What will I be when I grow up? And yet, our past is our richness, our legacy; it is what we are made of. It is the beloved artifact of a long-ago trip, the old dress still hanging in our closet, the photos of the friends long gone, the books read and no longer to be reread but still on our shelves, the souvenirs, the memories, the old comfort of our place on the planet. I sometimes wonder why I still go to this lecture, see that play or meet that new person — in the hopes of what, exactly? I need less exposure to the new and more time at home to sit quietly, read, think, do nothing. This is not as easy a task as it seems, for we are so programmed to keep running away from ourselves and toward that new whatever that is being dangled in front of us. Does always seeking and finding the new give us any real pleasure? Does it provide happiness? Do we constantly need to be in the know? Are we worried about being left behind, about being old-hat, about missing out, about not keeping up with the Joneses or

being seen as less than? Zen Buddhists talk about the emptiness of striving, striving being the hallmark of our society. We embrace a forever young credo – what is still in our bucket list! I wonder if by always doing or getting the next new thing we try to stay forever young. Is it a death denial strategy — if we forgo the old we may be able to give the slip to the consciousness of our own mortality. Perhaps we should take more time and cover less ground; perhaps we should go from unrest to rest; perhaps… I would like to end with the first few lines of William Blake’s poem “Auguries of Innocence”: “To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand, and Eternity in an hour.” – Natasha Josefowitz taught the first course in the United States on women in management and is the author of more than 20 books.

Baby Boomers Need Hepatitis Screening Born between 1945 and 1965? You are five times more likely to be infected with Hepatitis C than other adults. Hepatitis C (Hep C) is the most common form of hepatitis in the US. The most common reason for Hep C infection is from receiving a contaminated blood transfusion. Before 1992, there was inadequate testing for Hep C. Improved testing after 1992 eliminated this risk. There are other reasons for Hep C, such as unsafe sexual practices and IV drug use. Since 2012, the CDC has recommended testing for the Hepatitis C virus for persons born between 1945 and 1965. Hepatitis means inflammation of the liver, and it impairs the ability of the liver to carry out its normal functions. If it becomes chronic, it can lead to cirrhosis. Visit us at Pacific Urgent Care and Wellness Center for your Hep C screening, and other wellness updates. Dr. Joseph Moore, MD.

Volunteers, teamwork kept Amgen Tour of California on course in SD By LAINIE FRASER Hundreds of volunteers across the county helped San Diego host Stage 1 of the Amgen Tour of California this past weekend and, according to volunteer coordinator Julie Hamilton, their efforts made the event a complete success. The race started in Mission Bay, went through Imperial Beach, headed east and then eventually went back west through Pacific Beach. It was the first time San Diego hosted the road race, and with a large amount of land to cover, San Diego police, the San Diego Tour of California Local Organizing Committee, and Amgen worked together to make the event happen with as few issues as possible. “Our success is measured by the community outreach and response ,and I am proud to say this was an absolute success,” said Ed Clancy, chairman of the San Diego Tour of California Local Organizing Committee. Through sign-up sheets outside popular businesses, print and online advertising and a variety of media commercials and fan engagement, more than 300 volunteers gathered to give their time on Sunday. “It was an incredible weekend for San Diego and particularly the Mission Bay area,” said Kim Merrill, spokesperson for the San Diego Tour of California Local Organizing Committee. Clancy says he is fortunate that Mayor Kevin Faulconer is as interested in sports as he is and says he cannot thank the community members – from all around the county – enough for doing their part. “We are a grass-roots system and it was through community engagement events and a genuine interest

by residents that we were able to pull this off,” Clancy said. The volunteers arrived at 6 a.m. the morning of the race and set up barricades, closed lanes, facilitated traffic, escorted racers and went door to door handing out fliers and informing residents of the event. “A lot of the volunteers simply love San Diego and love volunteering,” Clancy said. “They were given a behind-the-scenes look at an event, which a lot of people were excited about, but I think most of these people just love the community.” Initial planning for the event began roughly two years ago. The route for the race and the roles for the volunteers were finalized in November of last year. The last two months prior to the race were described by Clancy as “madhouse crunch time” and were spent finalizing details and fully preparing the volunteers. Part of this preparation took place at an orientation earlier in May that pressed safety as the number one concern for the Local Organizing Committee. “The orientation was very important to us,” Clancy said. “It was all about safety, safety, safety... of the volunteers, riders and spectators.” Clancy, Hamilton and Merrill were impressed by the success of the event and hope to host the race again, as was Faulconer, who said he would like the race to be an annual event in San Diego.

‘Height is not an issue,’ climber Giana Mitchell (second from left) says in relying on her high acumen for strategy among her Country Day teammates. PHOTO BY ED PIPER

LJCD rock climber is a David to the sport’s Goliath By ED PIPER Giana Mitchell, all 5’1” and 123 pounds of her, looks at the massive indoor climbing wall rising above her. It stretches up 50 feet, the tallest west of the Mississippi until recently. The first time she approached it – a couple years ago, with the beginnings of the La Jolla Country Day rock climbing team – she must have felt a twinge of fear. Climbing was a new thing for her, although she had played a lot of sports before – soccer, volleyball, even Ultimate Frisbee. Her balance wasn’t that good for someone attempting to scale a wall and have “your body suspended in space,” as the 17-year-old junior puts it, referring to the ropes and clip that will hold her. But the challenge of the wall appealed to her, and three years later, she is still at it. Her father, Todd Mitchell, a teacher at Country Day middle school and coach of the team, declares the school is the only one in the nation “that has an official rock climbing team.” “Over time, I’ve really changed,” the younger Mitchell says related to her balance making her ascents. The Torrey team doesn’t do any weightlifting – Giana’s increased body strength is all a result of her climbing.

“I’m shorter,” she says in an understatement (pun intended). “But height is not an issue. For every climber, it’s different. I’m not going to just power my way up the wall. I’d say my strength is intricate detailed moves – balancing.” The community feeling among rock enthusiasts was evident on a visit to their venue, where the Torreys practice multiple times a week. Todd has been climbing for 15 years, keyed by a trip to Joshua Tree. The staff at the Mesa Rim facility are friendly, welcoming and relaxed. There’s kind of a ’60s feel to some of it, with a few free spirits sporting long locks. They don’t hesitate to try to recruit a visitor/observer for an ascent. Giana herself grins and says, “I’m the biggest recruiter for the whole team. I talk to everyone about it at school.” Qualities that are addressed in climbing include trust, patience and problem-solving abilities. Mitchell, starting up the wall, must immediately put trust in her belayer, the person who stays on the ground and pulls up the slack in the rope. “They can lock the belay device (an oval-shaped clip that’s key to securing the rope) so if you fall you’ll just swing away from the wall a little bit,” says Mitchell, speaking from experience. “You develop a trust in your

belayer. You do your safety check (before the climb). From this, you know you’re not going to fall.” Patience is required because the climb is going to take time, and it’s not going to be accomplished by a spectacular exhibition of athleticism or hurry-up. The rest of the team and other climbers are arrayed below the wall and spread out throughout the facility, calmly watching, waiting as climbers move above them. This is the counterpoint to the rush-rush of much of the rest of our Internet-fueled culture, sped up by instantaneous communication via text and email. Torrey team members spend three hours a day of practice at their craft. Intriguing is the aspect of planning out the ascent, the part Mitchell excels at. This is where she has to problem solve, to figure out which hand- and footholds she will use to try to go up. The climb is also called the “problem,” the “route” or the “project.” You can plan out your whole climb, invest quite a bit of time trying the route you have planned, and reach a point where you can go no further. At that point, you have to scrap the entire route and start over. “Sometimes I go a route I realize I

Two classic events keep the Timken Museum of Art in fashion Fashion Files

Diana Cavagnaro

The Timken Museum of Art recently held two fashion events in this “jewel box” of fine art. On May 5, Katherine Schwab, professor of art history at Fairfield (Conn.) University, gave an illustrated lecture, “Classical Hairstyles: Identity, Society and Fashion,” a look at the evolution of hairstyles with braiding techniques, now the latest trend on the runways. Fishtail braids can be seen on statues of maidens, called Caryatids, on the Athenian Acropolis more than 2,400 years ago. Guests stayed after the lecture to learn to make a fishtail braid; they could see a beautiful example of it on Schwab as she mingled among the crowd. Schwab made a film on the hairstyles worn by the Caryatids and curated an exhibition, Hair in the Classical World. She is an authority on the metopes in the Parthenon sculptural program, and scans of her drawings are part of the permanent installation in the Acropolis Museum. Currently, you can see her original drawings at the Timken in “An Archaeologist’s Eye: The Parthenon Drawings of Katherine A. Schwab” through June 5. The second Timken event was “The Art of Fashion: Costume and Culture,” held May 7. Six graduate

designers at UCLA’s David C. Copley Center for the Study of Costume Design participated in this event. Each student created a costume inspired by the Timken painting “Madonna and Child,” by Niccolo di Buonaccorso. As the guests arrived, two models were wearing gowns draped in fabric that copied that in this 14th-century painting. Executive Director Megan Pogue was on hand to greet everyone, and the event chair for this event was Lori Walton. Director and chair of this graduate program is Deborah Nadoolman Landis, who has had a lengthy career in costume designs for films. She has been nominated for Academy Awards and was responsible for the costumes in Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” video.

Katherine A. Schwab and Margo Schwab

Landis spoke to the audience about the five-month design creation process. She said that this year she picked the di Buonaccorso painting because of Mother’s Day. The students first started out researching the painting, studying the time period, creating a sketch and then completing the finished designs, displayed on half-size mannequins. The six designs were placed on the Timken website, and viewers voted their favorite. The audience heard from the students about their experience and inspiration. The winner was Ruoxuan Li, who was born in China, studied at the Wimbledon College of Art in London and went back to work in the TV industry in China before beginning the graduate program.

again. I met two of these women on a Metropolitan Opera-hosted Great Lakes cruise several years ago. The onboard entertainers were Heggie and von Stade – who could resist that? Last year, we were together at Carnegie Hall and Pittsburgh Symphony, and I met up with all three in Dallas for the “Great Scott” opening last October. You might say they are Jake and Flicka fans. I took my guests to see ion theatre company’s “Jesus Hates Me” and MOXIE Theatre’s “Our Lady of Kibeho” and also to a preview performance of Diversionary’s impressive world-premiere musical, “The Boy Who Danced on Air” (May 14June 12).

That’s when 19th-century composer Bazzetti (handsome bassbaritone Philip Skinner) stops by Arden’s dressing room, giving her advice and an excuse to sing a 21stcentury mad scene. In case you missed knowing it, the opera is a celebration of opera and all that makes it grand. “Great Scott” now clocks in at 3 hours, just about right so far as I’m concerned.

La Jolla's Opera Wednesdays fuel city’s healthy music scene By BART MENDOZA One of the easiest ways to tell a healthy music scene is in its attention to nonmainstream music, sounds beyond the radio-friendly pop, altie rock and modern country. It’s an area in which San Diego excels, with its reggae, blues and world music particularly vibrant locally. One area often overlooked yet holding its own is San Diego’s classical music community, opera in particular.

Several larger organizations promote opera locally, such as the San Diego Opera, but smaller groups also hold events such as Opera Wednesdays, which takes place the second Wednesday of each month at La Jolla Community Center. The event is the brainchild of Alexis Alfaro, a tenor with San Diego Opera Chorus who is currently attending graduate school in opera performance in Kansas City. The shows are currently comanaged by Patrick Anderson and Derek Legg, a senior music student at Point

Loma Nazarene University. “Alfaro,” Anderson said, “conceived of the series as a means of taking opera performance into a more intimate setting and exposing more of the community to the art form. It's been a success since the first night.” Anderson notes that Opera Wednesdays is a true grass-roots effort. “We book the singers, arrange the program and work with the staff at the La Jolla Community Center to set up the venue,” Anderson said.

As opposed to the elaborate sets, the nights feature just the sound of a voice with accompanying piano from Janie Prim. “She plays for the singers every month that her schedule allows,” Anderson said. The managers usually present four singers each month, sometimes more, who perform three selections each. The program primarily consists of operatic excerpts, but the managers welcome the addition of art songs or Broadway standards for variety. Participation in the series is by invitation or referral. The line-up for future shows had not been confirmed at press time. The next performance is scheduled for June 8. “While many of our performers are gifted students from the local college music programs,” Anderson explained, “we strive for a mix of promising young singers and experienced professional singers. This mix creates a richer experience for the audience and singers alike.” Approximately 75 singers have performed in the series, about half of those more than once. Each concert lasts an hour and a half, with two short refreshment breaks. They create a casual atmosphere, with the community center selling wine and snacks Admission is free, with a suggested donation of

$10 per person. All donations collected go directly to the performers; Anderson noted that the community center charges Opera Wednesdays nothing. Anderson feels that the future of opera locally is looking good. “I have great hopes for the opera experience in San Diego,” he said. “I believe that the recent travails of the San Diego Opera, and the attendant publicity, created a great deal of interest in all facets of the community, and I have personally witnessed a wonderful cross-section of demographics at recent performances. We also have newer companies in town, such as Opera NEO (a summer intensive workshop) and City Opera, so I think the future looks bright.” San Diego Opera nearly closed its doors in the spring of 2014 amid funding challenges. For Anderson, the chance to promote Opera Wednesdays is part of a lifelong love of the genre. “My favorite thing about these shows,” he said, “is the chance to work closely with such enthusiastic, talented people and enjoy the camaraderie of my fellow opera nerds.” La Jolla Community Center is at 6811 La Jolla Blvd., with its Opera Wednesdays starting at 8 p.m. For more, see ljcommunitycenter.org.

SAN DIEGO COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER GROUP | FRIDAY, MAY 20, 2016 | SDNEWS.COM

There’s no wrong way to eat the kumquat Kumquats are one of the easiest fruit trees to grow in pots. These small, attractive citrus trees have glossy green leaves year round and are covered with bright orange grape-size fruit by late winter or early spring. Unlike other citrus fruits, you can eat the entire kumquat – the skin, interior flesh and seeds. Native to Japan and the southeastern areas of China, kumquat is Cantonese for "golden tangerine." Kumquat trees tolerate cooler weather better than most citrus trees and do well along the coast as long as they are sheltered from strong winds. If planted in the ground, they can grow 10 feet or higher, but when grown in containers, they tend to be much smaller. One of the most popular varieties of kumquats to grow is the oval-shape Nagami, which can produce fruit on and off for most of the year. Choose an area that receives full sun for your kumquat tree, and plant it in organic potting soil and in a large pot that has good drainage. Water your tree when it just begins to dry out, since kumquats do not like overly dry soil or soil that is too wet. Like all citrus trees, they are heavy feeders and

bullheaded mainstream medical establishment as actually looking at for its alleged healing properties involving inflammatory conditions. The docs are quick to add that the studies have largely been confined to laboratory work – but Turmeric Thai isn’t exactly the Mayo Clinic. It’s a friendly, savvy little delight whose shopping-center locale may nonetheless harbor at least a secondary health benefit against killers like heart ailments and diabetes. You have to eat anyway; why not get a reward for it? One place you might want to start is with a dish called the crying tiger, so named because the dipping sauce is supposed to bring tears to your eyes. That it does – but Harvey, those are tears of joy streaking your cheeks amid the cavalcade of flavors in what’s nothing more than a grilled beef salad. The staff has this one down to a science – every sensation is across

need to be fertilized at least every other month. I feed mine Dr. Earth's Fruit Tree Fertilizer every other month, and in between, I give it some Epsom salts (2 tablespoons diluted in 1 gallon of water), which helps keep the leaves green and shiny. If you notice the leaves beginning to yellow, give your tree some organic chelated iron. Stop fertilizing in the fall and begin again in January. Shape your tree as it grows,keep-

the street from every other sensation, with somebody’s strategic cooking at its heart. Or try the turmeric-intense chicken larb, if only because the name beckons your indulgence. Larb is actually the national dish of Laos and is eaten eagerly in certain parts of Thailand, where the entry’s name means “minced meat” – the roasted rice and chilis, not to mention the blood of the animal, make this entry the dish it is. The menu includes sides aplenty, with bananas and ice cream an ideal choice – and this place also serves homemade Thai iced coffee, which tastes like a chocolate shake. After all that spice, this might amount to an assault on your mouth – but you’ve had homemade pie a la mode before, right? This is just another side of the same coin. I do enjoy Thai food, but I’m not a huge fan of peanut sauce. But as I’ve learned, peanut sauce doesn’t have to define your sense of what’s worth it -and this restaurant’s fare is proof.

ing the branches bushy and not too leggy. After eight years in the same pot, my tree stopped producing fruit, and one of my garden helpers, Chrissy, took it out of its pot, trimmed the roots and replanted it in fresh new soil. This year, the happy tree produced a bumper crop of kumquats, thanks to Chrissy's attention. Warm days help the kumquat tree produce its fruit, and by late summer, small, fragrant white

flowers appear. My kumquats are usually ready for harvest in February and March, when they turn lustrous orange, but I also find them at farmers markets in early winter. Kumquats have a distinct flavor, and their thin skin is much sweeter than the pulpy tart flesh inside, which tastes more like a sour lemon – eaten together, they have a sweet and sour flavor. The edible seeds tend to be quite bitter, and I prefer to discard them. If you plant an established kumquat tree now (in an approximately 5-gallon pot, found at local nurseries and garden centers), you could have a crop of little orange jewels by winter, just in time to snack on when cold and flu season is upon us. The kumquat has 25 percent more vitamin C than an orange, and its edible skin is filled with antioxidants, said to have properties that could keep you well during cold and flu season. It also makes a delicious marmalade. Linda is a Realtor with Coldwell Banker in La Jolla. Pictures of her garden have been published in local and national magazines.

Hake: last to close, last to reopen? What with the scaffolding, the wholesale pallet board, the everpresent dust, the slatted walkways and the general disregard for aesthetics, the exteriors at the businesses that dot 1250 Prospect St. looked for most of the spring like a displaced hospital after an earthquake – but slowly and surely, the end is in sight, leaving one popular eatery to announce its reopening, new rear deck and all. The Hake Kitchen and Bar, which debuted at the address in the fall of 2013, will launch at its expanded digs June 27, with an expanded bar and a deck overlooking La Jolla Cove. The remodel will add 60 seats and 2,000 square feet to the interior; it’s part of a massive overhaul at the 1250 complex, which includes George’s at the Cove and Donovan’s Steak & Chop House. Mexico City-based designer Jorge Campos is creating an enhanced dining experience at The Hake to include an oyster bar and casual lounge area with a modern bar and a separate area for a relaxed take on fine dining. The Hake very quickly became known for its Latininspired locally source seafood dishes. Business at the address has continued (more or less) as usual, with some venues affected by the construction as early as January.

Regular lemons may be substituted. 2 Meyer's lemons, sliced thin, remove seeds 1 lb kumquats, sliced thin, remove seeds 5 cups water 2 cups sugar Pinch of kosher salt Place lemon slices in a nonreactive pot (enamel or stainless steel), cover with water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer for about 5 minutes and then drain and discard the water. Place the lemon slices back in the pot, add the kumquats and 5 cups of water and bring to a boil. Remove the pot from the heat and let the mixture stand for 24 hours, covered. After 24 hours, add the sugar to the mixture in the pot and cook it over medium heat for 30 to 45 minutes or to a jelling point of 220 degrees Fahrenheit on a candy thermometer. Let the marmalade cool, and place it in clean jars. This recipe makes 2 1/2 to 3 cups, and it will keep in the refrigerator for approximately three weeks. The marmalade is nice on whole-grain toast for breakfast or as an appetizer served with goat cheese and toasted baguette slices.

Mike Hess Brewing earns gold for Koelsch-style brew Mike Hess Brewing, headquartered in North Park with a tasting room in Ocean Beach at 4893 Voltaire St., won gold in the Claritas category for one of its craft brews at the 2016 World Beer Cup competition May 6 in the German Style Koelsch category in Philadelphia. Claritas is Latin for “clarity, vividness and brightness.” Originating brewed in Cologne, Germany, Koelsch-style beer has a light body with a pale straw color featuring fruitlike aromatics. The World Beer Cup is held every two years in conjunction with the Brewers Association Craft Brewers Conference. Beers can be entered in more than 90 categories to win

bronze, silver or gold. This year, 6,596 beers were entered by 1,907 different breweries from 55 different countries. “Our whole team works extremely hard to make great beer, with no exceptions, no excuses,” said Hess brewery founder/proprietor Mike Hess. “Claritas has always been one of my favorite beers to brew given the meaning behind it. Winning this prestigious award, and being recognized amongst the top breweries in the world, is an incredible honor.” Hess also offers glutenfree and gluten-reduced beer varieties. Hess' Ocean Beach tasting room is open weekdays from noon to 10 a.m. and until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

Monarch butterflies at risk of extinction, according to Scripps study Long-term declines in the overwintering eastern population of North American monarch butterflies are significantly increasing their likelihood of becoming extinct over the next two decades, according to Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UCSD in La Jolla and U.S. Geological Survey research recently pub-

lished. The new study, available in the journal Scientific Reports, found that the Eastern migratory monarch population declined by 84 percent from the winter of 1996-97 to the winter of 2014-15. Using this information, the study demonstrated that there is a substantial chance – 11 to

57 percent – of quasi-extinction over the next 20 years. A quasiextinct population is one with so few remaining individuals left that recovery is impossible. While the remaining individuals may survive for a short time, the population as a whole will inevitably go extinct. “Because monarch numbers vary

dramatically from year to year depending on weather and other factors, increasing the average population size is the single most important way to provide these iconic butterflies with a much-needed buffer against extinction,” said Scripps biologist Brice Semmens, the lead author of the study, who studies

extinction risk in fish and other animal populations. Semmens said that as an example of this variability, just after the analysis concluded, the World Wildlife Fund Mexico and partners reported

Protesters ask SeaWorld to Empty the Tanks

Caitlin Cambern (right) and Holly Harvey (holding the 'Thanks but No Tanks' sign), students at Biola University, located east of Los Angeles, joined the annual Empty the Tanks global protest on SeaWorld Drive in Mission Bay on May 7. Empty the Tanks is a worldwide protest and public awareness campaign against the cetacean captivity indus-

try. The activists are not demanding the release of all captive marine mammals into the wild, only the animals that might be great candidates for release. Those animals that are not good candidates for release should be retired into sea pens, according to the Empty the Tanks founder Rachel Carbary, where they can enjoy the rest of their days in natural

seawater, feeling the waves of the ocean around them. ‘They should not be worked until their last breath is taken and then thrown out like trash and replaced,’ Carbary says. For more information, visit www.emptythetanks.org. PHOTO BY LORA NESHOVSKA

City attorney candidates debate short-term rentals and homeless issues By DAVE SCHWAB Four of five candidates running for city attorney in November to replace termed-out Jan Goldsmith crossed swords at a May 11 Pacific Beach public forum, tackling hotbutton issues like short-term vacation rentals (STVRs) and homelessness. All four Democrat candidates — Mara Elliott, Bryan Pease, Gil Cabrera and Rafael Castallanos — were present. The lone Republican in the

race, Robert (Bob) Hickey, was not. In opening remarks, Chief Deputy City Attorney Elliott, a 22-year law veteran, claimed to be the race's “insider,” noting she knows how things work at City Hall. “I've got a lot of experience in auditing specializing in operational effectiveness and saving money,” she said. “I can't stress the importance of this office. It requires experience in just about everything.” If elected, Elliott would become

the city's first female city attorney. “This is the most important office nobody knows about,” said Cabrera. “We need a lawyer with the highest ethics. It will be a priority of mine to work to increase the transparency of the office.” Animal-rights activist and attorney Bryan Pease saw the city attorney's role somewhat differently, casting himself as the race's populist candidate. “I'm the only candidate here who

has a judgment against the city in both civil and criminal cases,” said Pease, who's defended the harbor seals' presence at La Jolla's Children's Pool. “The city attorney needs to enforce the law but always stand for the public's interest.” Castellanos, a land-use lawyer and a Port commissioner, argued that “The city for decades has not had an attorney representing it in the core areas of infrastructure, finance and real estate develop-

ment.” He added his experience as a transactional attorney will allow him to ensure that the city “doesn't make another bad deal” like the (previous) Chargers ticket guarantee. On STVRs and whether they're allowed under current law, all four candidates agreed it's a real problem needing revision. But their take on

Deep fried pizza, steampunkers and an ‘Alice in Wonderland’ theme at this year’s fair By LAINIE FRASER

As the largest fair in California, attracting more than 1.5 million people last year alone, the San Diego County Fair hopes to break the attendance record with this year's theme “Mad About the Fair.” Fusing the inventive and artistic movement of steampunk with the magical world of Lewis Carroll's “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland,” the Del Mar Fairgrounds have been transformed into Alice's world of wonder and amazement. Events like Tea Time in Wonderland and the Mad Hatters Dance Party are designed to transport those in attendance to a world full of characters in eclectic costumes and a variety of fried foods to go along. “We had this retro-futuristic vision for this year's fair,” Frederick Schenk, Agricultural Association Board member said. “We are grateful for how it has come together and for the outreach by the San Diego Steampunk Society.” Members of the San Diego Steampunk Society have worked diligently for months to create handcrafted costumes that are both Alice in Wonderland and steampunk inspired. Their work and adaptation of the storybook characters has been deemed a success by Schenk. According to the director of media relations for the Del Mar Fair-

grounds, Linda Zweig, the fair should feel like a wild tea party with food and people to match. “If you invite the steampunk community, they will make it a show,” Zweig said. With 10 festivals, daily contests, events and nightly entertainment, all 26 days of this year's fair are planned to impress from open until close. “There are magical manifestations and outlandish landscapes to highlight every single day of this fair,” Schenk said. Of the 10 festivals planned for this year's fair, the San Diego International Beer Festival is scheduled for June 17 to 19 and is projected to attract a large crowd for the third year in a row. “Unlimited beer sampling from your backyard and around the world will make you grin like a Cheshire cat,” Schenk said. There are nine stages at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, and each of them is scheduled to host musical, comedic and theatrical performances all day. Acts are familyfriendly, and many are free with an admission ticket. Headliners include Lady Antebellum, Grand Funk Railroad and Kenny Rogers, to name a few. “We want everyone to go completely bonkers,” said Tim Fennell, CEO of the Del Mar Fairgrounds.

can’t keep going on,” she says. “I’m too tired, or I’ve been working at it too long. I have to come down and look at it with the belayer.” That would seem to be a real cause for frustration. But it’s part of the sport. “It’s like a puzzle,” she says. “I have to think. I have to read the route. ‘And when I get here (she thinks), I’ll have to put my hand here or make a major move… .’” How the rock climbing team started, according to Todd Mitchell, is that the students wanted to get credits for physical education. Jeff Hutzler, the athletic director at the school, told the senior Mitchell to come up with uniforms and an identity for the team instead of just having them be an independent PE activity. This gave the climbers official status. They climb all three sports seasons of the schoolyear, fall, winter and spring.

“What matters this year is food, fun and frolic, so please sip, savor and sample.” The newest feature to the fair this year is the California Grown Exhibit. It is an attempt to honor the agricultural history of the state and recognize California as the number one farming state in the nation. The exhibit is equip with farm animals and machinery and is intended to educate people about the past- and present-day farmer as well as the impact agriculture has across the state and nation. The exhibit will have three parts depicting farming yesterday, today and tomorrow. Food will be available at the fair that is locally sourced and served farm to table. “We want everyone to travel around this wonderful state through food and drink,” Schenk said. Planning for the 2016 fair began the day the 2015 fair ended, and, according to Zweig, it has been the board's intention from the start to make it the best one yet. “We are absolutely mad about the fair and we want to open San Diego's mind to the eclectic world of steampunk,” Schenk said. The San Diego County Fair opens on June 3 and runs through July 4 for a total of 26 days. Adult tickets are $16, and group promotions and passes are available online and at the fairgrounds. For more information about this year's fair and a chance to win merchandise as well as discounted admission tickets, the San Diego County Fair Street Team will be at the Fiesta Del Sol in Solana Beach, the D6 Night Market and the Balboa Park Garden Party in the coming weeks.

Giana Mitchell says climbers are very supportive. “In the rock climbing community, a stranger will suggest another way (up the wall), but in a really friendly way. They might say to me, ‘You’re shorter than me, but what worked for me… .’” Looking ahead to college, Mitchell prefers to stay closer to home. “I want to stay on the West Coast,” she says. “I want to go to a liberal arts college.” She isn’t sure where she would like to attend, but, “I’m really into arts. I like photography.” She has worked since she was a freshman as layout editor of the school newspaper, The Palette. The paper printed her first two years; now it publishes electronically only. “There’s a misconception about The Palette,” she says. “Students see it as being about the arts. But it also includes sports, news, lifestyle, opinion.” For Mitchell, rock climbing serves as a release from stress. “I don’t feel like I’m working out,” she says. “It’s definitely a stress release.”

declines are complex, although evidence suggests that loss of breeding habitat is the primary reason. Other factors include adverse weather conditions in recent years, loss of wintering habitat, disease and chemical exposure. There are two main populations of monarch butterflies in North America: the western, which winters and migrates west of the Rocky Mountains, and the more abundant eastern population, which is the subject of the new study and ranges east of the Rockies from central Mexico to southern Canada. Eastern monarchs breed in the United States and Canada and migrate to Mexico for the winter. Western monarchs migrate inland north and east from colonies along the California coast to states ranging from Washington to Arizona. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is considering a petition to protect monarchs under the Endangered Species Act.

Curtain Call Village News editor can’t keep up, calls it quits after a 44-year career 20

FRIDAY · MAY 20, 2016 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN I just now bought a spot of travel insurance my new employer requires as it sets me up in Montpellier, France over the fall. I’ll be teaching conversational English to my client family,

in exchange for which I get room, board and French school. Totally sweet deal, one that makes the sting of the premium entirely bearable (and to boot, the irresistible French resolve and joie de vivre stole my heart decades ago). Besides, the money’s a trifle against a lot bigger issue – France is positively wonderful, but so’s the milestone that colors this year’s visit. As of Friday, May 27, I’m calling it quits after more than four decades of journalistic mirth, madness and reward. My position as La Jolla Village News editor is the last formal post I’ll hold over 44 years of this stuff in three states – meanwhile, there’s no denying the latest round of pivots that

mark all that time, like the very kind invitation I received two years ago to write for San Diego Story and the decidedly untimely September death of Kevin McKay, San Diego Community Newspaper Group managing editor. On top of it all, I’m absolutely tuckered out beyond my capacity to understand. The grind has been almost too much more than worth it, as I was privileged to incorporate feature angles people ideally didn’t get anywhere else, included in a 600-word story on 9/11 that amid my anger took me all day to write; an interview with Polish labor unionist and former president Lech Valesa; a feature on the iconic Apollo 8 astronauts; and

what I hope was a reasoned political perspective on the chasmically tragic Paris shootings last November. And even with both feet nearly in the grave, I’m not quite done. You can find me this summer at San Diego Story (sandiegostory.com), a performing and visual arts emag for which I provide the most scintillating local theater commentary in the history of the universe. I’m also in the beginning stages of building a travel website – can’t very well go to France without leaving a trail, and I’ll be declaring as much through stories and reports on the site and at San Diego Story. There’s still a lot to do out there, and I’d go nuts if I cut myself off amid

what I acknowledge as vaguely workaholic tendencies. But thanks, thanks and ever thanks to everyone for input great and small over almost half a century (even to the guy who issued me a death threat 40 years ago after a review of a play that totally sucked tangerines). Indeed, all good things do come to an end – and your kindly readership is the best good thing of all. Salut et a bientot! Marty To publisher Julie Main, managing editor Tom Melville, reporter Dave Schwab, graphics magicians Chris Baker and Barbara Rogel and the rest of the San Diego Community Newspaper Group family.

The genie’s out of the bottle as C2 Education opens La Jolla venue On Saturday, April 16, Olive Winograd’s dream came true when she presented her winning artwork at the Riford Library, marking the opening of C2 Education’s second San Diego location, at 7660 Fay Ave. Winograd’s illustration showcased a “dream genie” and represents her dream “for everyone else’s dream to come true.” Winograd, a Muirlands Middle School student, won a $1,000 scholarship and plans to attend school in South Carolina to become an animator. C2, a national tutoring and mentoring service, also has a location at Scripps Ranch.

“Olive’s portrait of the dream genie is imaginative, lively and compassionate; she put a lot of effort into this project,” said Phillip Ayres, C2 Education San Diego district manager. “Each student that participated in La Jolla’s Gallery of Dreams has been an inspiration for our organization, and we hope to continue fostering more children’s dreams. La Jolla has an admirable next generation.” C2’s Gallery of Dreams showcases artwork illustrating local students’ dreams and hopes for the future. Eighteen students submitted artwork to compete for a $1,000 donation from the tutoring center for a college scholarship.

The community chose the top winners through multimedia projects. The fundraiser will run a weekend-long voting campaign. through early June. The second- and third-place winners received $750 and $250 respectively. Each student that participated in the Gallery of Dreams received a $30 gift card to Warwick’s Books. C2 also launched a social media fundraiser that invites community members to post photos that represent their dreams on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtag #DreamBigLaJolla. For each post, C2 Education will donate $1 to Outside the Lens, an organization that aims to Muirlands Middle School student Olive engage, educate and empower at-risk youth Winograd’s “dream genie” won her a $1,000 about global issues through photography and art scholarship,

the changes required varied. “There's nothing in the municipal code allowing minihotels in neighborhoods,” said Elliott, who's been endorsed by Save San Diego Neighborhoods, lobbying to remove STVRs from single-family neighborhoods. “We need to make sure all the codes and regulations are being followed,” said Pease. “But we also have a responsibility to protect the property rights of those who are doing things legally and are good for the community.” “We need to become more creative in solving the problem,” said Cabrera. “There's a balance that needs to be struck,” said Castellanos, adding, “We need better enforcement of STVRs that are illegal under the municipal code.” On homelessness, the candidates had their own takes and what needs to be done to resolve the issue. “At the Port, we addressed chronic homelessness on the waterfront with outreach to the homeless population,” said Castellanos. “We matched them with wrap-around services, which is critical.” “It's a complex issue with drug and alcohol problems and mental instability,” said Elliott. “We need to work together better to try and

resolve this.” “The city attorney needs to take a leadership role on that issue,” said Pease, adding part of the problem stems from a lack of affordable housing. “Developers,” he said, “refuse to build enough affordable housing.” “There's been a lack of focus on the housing-first model,” said Cabrera. “We need to come up with more creative ways to help resolve this problem.” In closing remarks, Cabrera said, “We need a city attorney who's a lawyer, not a politician, who is independent. I'm proud of the breadth of my support, which comes from Republicans and Democrats, from people like Donna Frye and (former mayor) Dick Murphy. You want an attorney with integrity.” “I bring a very different approach to this race,” argued Castellanos. “For nearly 50 years, we haven't had a city attorney grounded in land use, like I am. We've had city attorneys who rubber-stamped. That's why the city has fallen on its face (legally) over and over.” “This isn't an experiment; we need someone in the role who can get the job done,” said Elliott. “I've got a proven track record of success.” “I am looking out for the public's interest,” said Pease. “I've protected people from having their rights violated, the environment from being degraded and consumers from being defrauded.”
