Fashion Film Festival outpaces its skeptics as it anticipates a new home By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN Depending on the source, a sobering 50 to a stunning 95 percent of new businesses are said to fail within their first five years. Presumably, the type of service or product weighs heavy into that balance (dehumidifiers have probably never found a sales niche on Mercury, for example) – in any event, there's lots and lots of room for failure, even as the nation's economy sustains at least a pretense of improvement. Then again, everything comes together once in a while, with one La Jolla enterprise licking its chops over the spitshined Village infrastructure that may soon mark it. You

In July La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) tackled the thorny issue of “campers” at Kellogg Park, as well as endorsing a request by lifeguards to increase operating hours at Shores’ surf camps. Lifeguard Lt. Rich Stropky told the group it was a relatively mellow July 4 as crowds were down due to overcast conditions. Nonetheless, he noted some people “reserved space” by camping out at Kellogg Park on Friday night before the Saturday holiday. Stropky admitted camping issues at the park went largely unaddressed noting “resources and the beach team are stretched so thin.” “People can’t have tents and snooze all night,” said board mem-

Festival literature touts such films as “The Beautiful Mind,” German director Esther Löwe's first foray into fashion work, in which a prima ballerina is guided on a mysterious journey to discover the secret to dance; Spanish director Albert Moya's “High Tide,” an homage to fashion as an art form and a way to bring about social and cultural reflection; and “How to Fight in Six-Inch Heels,” Vietnamese-American director Ham Tran's look at a neurotic fashion designer who learns her fiancé is having an affair with a model and infiltrates the modeling world to catch him in the act.

Fashion Film Festival
News, is the sole local print-media sponsor of the event. Fashion is a nearly $300 billion commodity in the U.S., and that figure speaks to the lofty mentalities that drive many of today's niche industries. Still, the term “fashion film” may raise an eyebrow as people seek to connect two colossally important enterprises. Sweet thinks the link is more easily mastered amid a feel for the role the Internet, now a household staple, has played in the festival's evolution. “I'd make a video [inspired] by a designer ad,” Sweet explained, “and I'd show them around to friends, without thinking about a festival or event.” What eventually followed was an inventory of films that ideally give life to clothing and its wearers. The concept has propelled the La Jolla festival to its place as the world's largest event of its kind. Sweet, San Diego Model Management CEO, said that fashion film has quickly become a core means for designers to enter the public dialogue – still, ritzy La Jolla, and the household fashion names that soon will

descend on it, might set a tone of exclusivity with a public otherwise inclined to attend. Sweet said the concern is legitimate – but he added that the neighborhood's forward thinking, not its riches, is the prime mover in the festival's growth.
“We call ourselves the Cannes of fashion film (referring to the southern French town whose legendary cinema festival was founded in 1946),” Sweet said – “but what's Cannes? It's a city by a bay. A festival of that magnitude had to start somewhere, and Cannes was the place. I think of La Jolla the same way.” But certain business developments on Fay Avenue couldn't be unfolding at a better time, Sweet said. La Jolla Music Society's Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center, at 7600 Fay, hopes to open in January of 2018, with Boffo Cinemas' seven-screen boutique movie house set to open perhaps later this year. The prospects for some kind of festival tenancy,
Sweet said, would fuel an unbelievable future. He noted that the Sherwood, part of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego's La Jolla campus,“is really, really going to wind down” as the museum reportedly retools the space. “Those two new venues and the festival – the stars would align.” There's a lot of that going around as the world redefines itself and its aesthete. Locally, that translates to an era wherein fashion takes on a character's role in motion pictures. Stranger things have happened, Sweet might say. And La Jolla, he'd add, is wonderfully poised to let the strangeness in. For more information, see ljfff.com.

and why they’re not required to take it (tent) down.” “Unless it’s enforced — the problem will never be resolved,” said board member Mary Munk adding smoking and drug use are just two illegal activities that can be concealed within enclosed tents. Munk said she drove by Kellogg on July 4 noting, despite diminished crowds, that “there wasn’t an ounce of (unpopulated) grass anywhere.” “I was in touch with (coastal) Ranger (Parish) Rye and it’s a priority thing,” said LJSA chair Nick Lebeouf about anti-camping regulations. “Hopefully, next year, our community will be able to have some enforcement for that.”

Surf camps Noting there are four existing Shores surf camp locations, Stropky said lifeguards are proposing a time change in the next RFP (request for proposals), which spells out operating conditions for surf camps. The new proposal would add one additional hour to their current 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. operational schedule. “There are no safety issues on our (lifeguard’s) side,” noted Stropky about the proposed surf camp time change adding, “We wanted to give the community an opportunity to weigh-in.” Stropky said the four Shores’ surf camps are in “the north section of Kellogg Park at the very top end of the boardwalk” in an area he characterized as not “super busy.”
Inaugural Cabrillo Sunset run on July 25 Cabrillo National Monument Foundation will hold its first-ever Cabrillo Sunset 5K run-walk from 6 to 9 p.m. Saturday, July 25 at the national park at 1800 Cabrillo Memorial Drive. The Cabrillo race route is challenging, descending on a paved road downhill about 200 feet to the tide pools offering a pristine ocean view for runners/walkers. The race then continues back up a steep incline. There will also be an alternative fun run/walk up to the lighthouse. Both events qualify for event T-shirts and medals. “It’s a day completely dedicated to health and getting out in the outdoors and experiencing our parks,” said Eileen Martinez, Cabrillo spokesperson. The Cabrillo Sunset 5K is part of the National Park Service’s (NPS’s) centennial “Find Your Park Move to Improve Challenge.” With its centennial approaching in 2016, the “Challenge” is part of NPS’s recently launched campaign to raise support and introduce a new, morediverse generation of millennials and children to "America's best idea," the national parks. Runners in the Cabrillo Sunset 5K will compete for first-place awards in both the men’s and women’s division, which guarantees them free admission into the America’s Finest City Half Marathon in August. All participants will receive a numbered bib, an event T-shirt and an inaugural commemorative medal. After the race, participants can chill, relaxing and enjoying a DJ and music and dance. This will truly be a “park after dark” experience as the event is being held on the night of a full moon. First lady Michelle Obama and former first lady Laura Bush are co-chairing the Challenge campaign, which calls on Americans to "Find Your Park" to enjoy their public lands. Sustaining the national parks and keeping them relevant to visitors for another 50 or 100 years is a growing challenge. For registration information, visit www.active.com.

Merchants hear more on odor near the Cove and a parade of other distractions By DAVE SCHWAB In July, La Jolla Village Merchant’s Association (LJVMA) were told that negotiations with the city are “continuing” over what to do about the Cove sea lion mess, while board members “disavowed” any connection with – or support for – a drive by a group to host an alternative year-end parade a week after the La Jolla Christmas parade. LJVMA president CA Marengo told the group he’s met with representatives of the city, the lifeguards, the mayor’s office and La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) in another round of conversation about what to do about continuing odor problems at the Cove. Accumulating marine mammal and bird waste build-up there is creating a foul stench that is adversely impacting business. “We’ve been trying to find another method to accelerate what’s going on (counteracting odor),” Marengo said adding “the mayor’s taken an added interest.” Marengo said the city’s hired an expert who is gathering data on sea lions and their habits. He added there may be a “window” of time now in which to act to find a way to discourage sea lions from slowly col-
onizing the Cove. “Sea lions now are traveling up to the Channel Islands and not many of them are left behind (at Cove),” he said. “We’re hoping there’s some way we can use National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s regulations to keep them (sea lions) from coming back on the beach.”
Alternative parade Board member Nancy Warwick noted an organization, the San Diego County Diversity and Inclusiveness Group, which has been lobbying to have Christmas removed from the community’s year-end parade name, is actively campaigning to close Village streets in order to host an “alternative” parade on Dec. 13 the weekend following the Dec. 6 parade. “I wish to put this on our agenda next month for discussion,” Warwick said. “They’ve been handing out flyers and asking for street closures on Kline to Prospect and along Wall Street. The petition does not clarify this is actually a second parade, not the same parade with a new name.” Warwick said street closures for back-to-back weekend parades “would be very detrimental to busi-
ness, and very confusing for the merchants.” She said parade organizers are also making claims and promises they can’t keep about their parade. “They’re suggesting their parade will draw 25,000 people,” Warwick said adding, “They’ve also said there are four businesses that are providing restrooms, and those businesses don’t even know about it (alternative parade).” “Our (LJVMA’s) position is that the (alternative) parade organizers have never presented their plans to us, and until they present, we have no position – or we stay out,” said Marengo. “It’s our obligation to educate merchants about what’s going on,” added Warwick. “We don’t know what we’re educating,” replied Marengo. The La Jolla Traffic & Transportation (TNT) Committee heard the matter of the alternative parade and proposed street closures at its June meeting. They, however, delayed a final decision until the Diversity & Inclusiveness Group returns at its July meeting with more information. The next TNT meeting will be Thursday, July 23 at 4 p.m. at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St.
City Council unanimously supports zero waste plan By DAVE SCHWAB The San Diego City Council’s nine members voted unanimously July 13 to support a proposed zero waste plan with the goal of diverting 75 percent of the waste generated in the city away from landfill disposal by 2020. The city's goal is to reach zero waste by 2040. To get there, government officials acknowledged that the city will need to reuse, recycle and reduce the amount of waste generated within its boundaries by emphasizing education and legislation aimed at
waste reduction. The city’s Environmental Services Department has been asked to come up with new ways to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. Alternatives could include additional organic recycling, revising city recycling ordinances and increasing recycling at city facilities, as well as instituting additional education and outreach. During council deliberations, District 2 Councilwoman Lorie Zapf, who represents the beachfront south of La Jolla, said the whole point of the zero waste proposal is to
“try to divert as much as we can.” Noting blue recycling bins typically are the ones that overflow, Zapf asked if residences could have more than one blue trash bin, and if there would be any extra-added cost associated with picking up an extra bin. She was told each residence is entitled to have up to three blue recycling bins, and that they are provided by the city free of charge, though there is a $25 delivery fee. “We have a lot of work to do in our backyards,” noted Zapf, of making the proposed zero waste plan a reality.

City Attorney discusses Chargers, smells and vacation rentals at LJ Town Council By DAVE SCHWAB Outgoing City Attorney Jan Goldsmith appeared before La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) in July discussing sea lions, short term vacation rentals (STVRs), the prospects for a new Chargers stadium, how the office changed under his leadership and what the role of the city attorney should be. Noting he came along 6 ½ years ago at a time when the city attorney’s office was in “a lot of trouble,” Goldsmith said, “We had to change the culture. We had to depoliticize it. The idea was to make the office a real law firm. We make our decisions now based on law — not politics.” Goldsmith, who terms out of office in 2016, noted the city attorney’s office employs 146 lawyers, making it the largest law firm in the city that does civil work. “We have two clients,” the city’s head attorney said. “One is the city of San Diego, a municipal corporation. The other is the people of this state of California that we do criminal law for.” Goldsmith noted the city handles 20,000 criminal cases, which he characterized as “a huge amount.” A primary function of the city
attorney’s office is to defend the city against lawsuits. “When you mess with the city, you’re messing with me and my 146 lawyers,” Goldsmith joked, adding, “Sometimes we’re on the wrong side, and then we settle quietly. But our job is to protect the city. And the city is us (people). We defend the city — right or wrong.” Goldsmith defended the city’s decision, and the judicial ruling supporting it, that holds the city is not responsible for cleaning up animal waste deposited at the Cove. Over time, buildup of that waste has become increasingly problematic in generating nauseating smells and discouraging people from coming to La Jolla. “We (city) were sued and some alleged the city had a legal obligation to solve the problem (smell),” Goldsmith said. “The law is very clear. The city can work with constituents on a problem. But where it comes to wild animals, the city has no legal obligation.” Goldsmith added “I don’t know what the solution is,” when pressed on what the community should do about its sea lion problem.

McMansions on the menu again at Community Planning Association By DAVE SCHWAB In July, La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) elected new board officers as well as hearing public testimony about encroaching “mansionization” in the community. Board president Joe LaCava, who is running for the District 1 Council seat in 2016, officially stepped down, yielding to Cindy Greatrex. Greatrex assumed the presidency and control of the meeting. Bob
Steck became the group’s new vice president, replacing Greatrex in that role. During public testimony, Linda Van Zant, a La Jolla resident since 1981, complained that a redeveloped parcel at 754-758 Bonair St. near her residence went beyond stated redevelopments approved by the LJCPA by an 11-4-1 vote in September 2013. The project asked for permitting
and a variance to demolish an existing duplex and construct three, 3story detached single-family residences ranging from 1,929 to 2,185 square feet on the 9,225-square-foot parcel. The variance was to maintain two curb cuts, where only one typically would be allowed. “You guys (LJCPA) are the firewall for stopping what is happening (mansionization) in our community,” said Van Zant. “You’re caretak-
ers for the rest of us, so you need to pay close attention.” Van Zant said the group’s previously approved Bonair Project was an example of “bad caretaking.” LCPA trustee Mike Costello noted there were “a lot of questions” with that Bonair redevelopment project. One of them, he said, involved a variance request for the project that some felt was “not warranted.” Costello added some also questioned
whether the project’s scale was “out of community character.” “I would volunteer to take a trip downtown and take the (building) plans and see what was actually done (construction) and compare them,” Costello said. The group charged Costello with completing that task.

A woman who was convicted of conspiracy to bring in illegal aliens by using a panga boat that crashed near the Children’s Pool in La Jolla in 2013 has been sentenced to one year in federal prison. Sofia Martinez, 27, was convicted by a federal jury on Nov. 18, 2014, but her sentencing was delayed by numerous legal issues, which ultimately led to U.S. District Court Judge William Hayes dismissing several other counts for which she had been convicted. Her attorney, Martha Hall, brought a motion that noted a codefendant who testified against Martinez got a lesser sentence than five years which he testified he expected to receive based on his testimony. Hall alleged that prosecutors didn’t disclose his sentencing agreement before Martinez’s trial. Her motion sought a new trial, but she reached a sentencing agreement of one year with the U.S. Attorney’s office in which they agreed to seek dismissal of three convictions of bringing in illegal aliens for financial gain. Hayes granted the motion to dismiss the three charges.
Realtor proposes changes to allow more ground-floor office space By DAVE SCHWAB Opposition to a recent proposal to change zoning on the ground-floor of a Village building to allow more office and less retail space could be misplaced, a La Jolla commercial Realtor said. “The office market has disappeared in La Jolla,” said Phil Wise of Colliers International. “There is an acute need for more office space in La Jolla.” The issue of office versus retail space in the Village came to a head in June when the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) deadlocked, and therefore made no recommendation, on landlord Peter Wagener’s proposal to change zoning
on the ground floor of his now-largely vacant building at 1111 Prospect St. to allow more office and less retail. The building on the corner of Prospect Street and Herschel Avenue previously housed boutique Hotel Parisi and Victoria’s Secret. Wagener came to LJCPA asking to deviate from development regulations in the La Jolla Planned District Ordinance (PDO) governing commercial development to increase, from 25 to 50 percent, the maximum amount of office space allowed on the ground floor. “If you say no it’s (building’s) going to stay empty,” warned Wagener, noting he’s spent two years unsuccessfully trying to lease the building’s
ground-floor space for retail. He said he has a prospective tenant, if more ground-floor space can be rezoned for office rather than retail. Wise pointed out that La Jolla’s PDO guidelines are “dated,” given that they date back to the '80s. “This is 2015, not 1975 or the ’80s when the PDO was last updated,” Wise said. “It was a different world back then without the Internet. A lot of retailers that used to exist back then don’t exist anymore. You have to change your (business) model.” Wise said the Village of La Jolla has numerous problems in attracting customers other than that it has limited access and limited parking. “There are all these restrictions in
La Jolla, like, you can’t eat on the sidewalk in some places,” Wise said adding, “You have to lighten up on the archaic rules. They just don’t work anymore.” Wise noted office use on ground floors isn’t a new concept. “There have been a whole bunch of offices that used to occupy entire ground floors of buildings in the past,” he said. The commercial Realtor said the problem with Wagener’s building on Prospect Street is that it’s “too big and too deep. It just doesn’t work in today’s market.” A better plan, suggested Wise, might be to encourage “businesses of all types” to come to La Jolla.
“You have to modernize,” he said. “The best way to grow in La Jolla is to allow the office space in La Jolla to increase. And the only place to put that is on the ground floor.” Wise noted office tenants “go to restaurants and buy in the retail stores. You don’t have a large enough consumer base in the Village,” Wise argued, noting “it’s a numbers game.” Back in June, several LJCPA trustees objected to Wagener’s deviation proposal, arguing that trading off retail for office both violates the spirit of La Jolla land-use planning, as well as setting an irreversible precedent likely to be followed by others.

Senior Lifestyle Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D.
Cataract surgery, seeing better The shuttle car drops me off in front of the Shiley Eye Institute, part of UCSD Healthcare. I’m getting a clouded, natural lens removed and a clear, acrylic one put in. Even though cataract surgery is one of the most common procedures in the aging
population and I have Dr. Robert N. Weinreb—the best possible surgeon—doing the operation, I am anxious. After checking in with the person at the front desk, I am told to wait. I barely sit down when my name is called. A nurse takes me to a curtained cubicle and gives me a gown to be tied at the back, nonslip socks, and a lovely blue bonnet to cover my hair. I lie down on a bed, I am covered with a warm blanket, and the sides are put up. Is it so that I don’t roll out or so that I can’t escape? A series of nurses come and go, and I’m given numbing drops in my eye. Dr. Weinreb comes by in surgical garb to tell me I must wait half an hour for the drops to take effect. I assure him that I am retired and not going anywhere.

In the meantime, I observe his interactions with his staff: there is a feeling of colleagueship, camaraderie between the various doctors, nurses, and technicians and Dr. Weinreb. He is among the best-known glaucoma doctors in the world and the head of the Shiley Eye Institute. It is a teaching hospital, so he is a boss, an instructor, and a mentor. He told me what an incredible group he has working with him. The credit for this is of course due to the relationships he has established and interactions he has with his team. There was palpable warmth in the surgical unit and evident caring from staff to patients. An anesthesiologist comes over to talk to me. I say I only want local anesthetic, I want to be fully awake

are saying, but I do hear Dr. Weinreb saying to me, “We are halfway there.” I feel relief. Then, “Three more minutes,” then “We’re done.” I am now post-op. I am wheeled back to my cubicle and given juice. Dr. Weinreb comes over to tell me that my operation was difficult, but successful; he is pleased. A nurse comes to give me post-op instructions: Do not bend down and do not lift heavy objects. I’m given two prescriptions for drops. One must be put in every hour to decrease inflammation; the other is four times a day, an antibiotic. Someone calls a taxi to take me home to my retirement community.

For example, the ‘Dubbo Study” which took place from 19882004 in Australia, credits gardening with a 36% reduction in the incidence of Dementia in over 60s. In these studies, they struggle to explain why something like gardening helps reduce Dementia but I think you would be silly to ignore their findings! And finally, that glass of wine and walking… How about a 38% reduction in Dementia for daily walking (men only) and a 34% reduction for daily moderate alcohol intake (men & women). Your thoughts?

It’s a place to give people some spiritual answers, to support their own faith.” All faiths and denominations are welcome at the reading room, which has been a fixture in the Village since it was started in the '40s. No discussion of this section of La Jolla Village would be complete without mention of Richard Walker's Pancake House (RWPH) at 909 Prospect St. which opened on Cinco de Mayo in 2014. “Since that date, RWPH has been serving the best breakfasts to thousands of La Jollans and tourists alike,” said Walker adding RWPH was recently voted "Best New Restaurant," "Best Breakfast," and
blessed to be here.” Walker said there’s plenty of room for growth in the Village. “Ideally, we would like to see another nightclub/bar/restaurant next to us to fill the void from BarFly,” he said. “Or perhaps a highend confectioner in the Aroma space would be helpful to our general area. Either way, we're excited about the possibilities in our Plaza, and look forward to working next to great new businesses in our vicinity.”

The Madison Gallery was the hot spot for the fifth annual La Jolla Hat Show on July 10. The evening was a pre-party for Opening Day at Del Mar Racetrack. The 2015 beneficiaries this year were Speak Loud Animal Protectors and TheraPony. The missions of these organizations are to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home abused and neglected horses. Everyone arrived on a Red Carpet along with two ponies from the beneficiary. The event organizer Mary Soriano and the gallery owner Lorna York were on hand to greet the guests. The crowd was filled with much anticipation for the upcoming fashion show. Anya Tychinskaya debuted her delightful collection, Anna Valeria. This collection was designed by Tychinskaya and knitted and crotched by her aunt and mother in Russia. As part of the show both Tychinskaya’s aunt and mom were Skyped from Russia.
The models came down the runway to the backdrop of Russian music. The models were all hand picked for their active roll in the community. The beautifully crafted dresses were a huge hit with the audience. A variety of men were selected from the crowd to model Fedoras on the runway. Wearing Greenpacha Fedoras, they caused quit a sensation from the audience. Next the women came down the runway competing for the best hat and they came down the runway in all shapes and sizes. This year the first place prize was two tickets to the Del Mar Races Opening Day. The lucky winner was Ashley Buzzell who was wearing a stunning red petite top hat with black trim. The next segment was special guest Adam Saaks. Saaks came down from LA and to work his magic. He has worked on celebrities such as Heidi Klum, Halley Barry, and Mariah Carey. Saaks is well known for his live performances armed with only a pair of scissors. Beginning with a beautiful model dressed in bathing suits he begins shredding until he has hand crafted the design in front of
the entire audience. The last model came out in a dress and he continued to work his magic giving the audience a great performance. Rounding out the evening was the entertainment of Tommy Andrews and the voices Band. For more information on the next show, visit www.lajollahatshow.com

Highly recommended to the courageous theatergoer
There are four characters in Jane Anderson’s 2007 “The Quality of Life,” directed by Christy Yael-Cox and playing through Aug. 2 at Intrepid Theatre’s temporary home at Carlsbad Village Theatre (2822 State St.). Premiered at Los Angeles Geffen Theatre, and seen by Yael-Cox at San Francisco’s American Conservatory Theatre in 2008, “The Quality of Life” opened in Carlsbad July 5 and continues in an intricately plotted repertory with Intrepid’s Shakespeare Unplugged production of “The Winter’s Tale,” which opens July 11. It is possible to see both plays in one weekend day (intrepidtheatre.org). With dinner in between, attendance at both would provide a marvelous glut of sensory input. “The Quality of Life” is set in the
Berkeley Hills. The four middle-aged characters are in mourning, diversely and divergently so. Played by Jeffrey Jones and DeAnna Driscoll, Neil and Jeannette grieve the total loss of their home, their belongings, and their beloved cat, which ran off just before the fire came over the hill. They live in a yurt pitched on the site. The kitchen is outdoors. Played by Maggie Carney and Tom Stephenson, Dinah and Bill, who live in Ohio, grieve the death of their teenage daughter and only child, who was abducted a deranged man. Jeannette and Dinah are cousins, but have not been close until now, when Dinah and Bill, devout Christians, learn that Neil is dying of cancer. Dinah persuades Bill to take a trip to see them. Bill, an unbending born-again Christian, takes the occasion as an opportunity to preach, especially after learning that Neil plans to end his life two weeks hence and Jeannette plans to accompany him in the assisted suicide. If that sounds like the setup for a prolonged polemic, it is, but the arguments are well reasoned and
Maggie Carney (far left); Tom Stephenson (left center); DeAnna Driscoll (right); and Jeffrey Jones (bottom center).
passionate as limned by a master playwright whose characters are extremely well drawn. She laces her play with intelligence, compassion and humor. To witness Neil’s love for Jeannette in Jones’ eyes is almost painful. To see the metamorphoses wrought in all by their interaction is immensely touching. The issues are assisted suicide, use of medical marijuana, and morality vis-à-vis religiosity, grief, loss and love. Show times: “The Quality of Life”: 8 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays, 2 p.m. Sundays; Shakespeare Unplugged “The Winter’s Tale”:
7:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays. 2 p.m. Saturdays, 7 p.m. Sundays. Schick in the New Yorker New Yorker music critic Alex Ross attended the Ojai Festival last month. It was certainly not Ross’s first time in Ojai, but this year was special because the artistic director was Steven Schick, who leads the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players and La Jolla Symphony and is UCSD’s legendary professor of percussion. Schick rated several graphs in
By CHARLENE BALDRIDGE Ross’s two-page New Yorker article. My favorite sentence in the beautifully written piece dubs Schick: “… one of the supreme living virtuosos, not only of percussion but of any instrument.” San Diego playwrights Ruff Yeager and Phil Johnson take their outrageous, Diversionary Theatre-premiered, gender-bending spoof, “She-Rantulas from Outer Space in 3D” to the New York International Fringe Festival Aug. 14-30.

A Better Deal Tuxedo! Look at what people are saying! When my wife and I started planning our wedding, I of course, wanted her to have it exactly the way she wanted. I only had one non-vetoable term... the tux. A Better Deal exceeded expectations. The selection was modern. The prices were great. The fitting went perfectly, and the tuxes looked fantastic on the big day. But... the reason I give 5 stars is the ownership and customer service. The day a man gets fitted for the clothes he'll be wearing at the alter is a big deal. They get that. Couldn't be happier with the whole process.
I was visiting San Diego and unexpectedly needed a tux four hours before a black tie event in LaJolla. I called and Jerry the owner answered saying, "you better get over here soon!" I did and quickly saw why. It was a busy late Saturday afternoon, and the little shop was filled with people getting fitted. Yet, the whole staff - Jerry, Janet, Magic Mike - worked hard to get me fitted and looking good in such short notice. The whole time I was there, I saw the staff treat me and each of the other customers like the many celebrities on the wall. The shop may look a bit old-school, but I can't say enough good things about the exceptional service and selection provided.

Everything is blurry, I can’t read. At dinner my friends all look young and wrinkle-free, like aging movie stars photographed with Vaseline on the lens. That evening, the TV is a bit blurry. I sleep wearing a plastic shield over my eye for protection. The next morning, my vision is clear, and my friends all have more wrinkles. By the end of the day, they look older than they were before my surgery. I see Dr. Weinreb the next day, he is pleased with the way things went and takes the time to explain what was entailed in the procedure. Apparently it was challenging as I have a genetic defect (pseudoexfoliation) which makes my lenses prone to dis-

Dining No good deed goes unpunished in France (Editor's note: This is the first of three articles on Martin Jones Westlin's summer vacation in France, during which he's discovering some of the culture's lesser-publicized traits through participation in a volunteer work program. This time, he looks at one instance that, thanks to some ingenious French hospitality, may have averted rethinking part of the trip. Westlin is editor of La Jolla Village News.)
By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN BROSSAC, France -- "Desole, mademoiselle," I pleaded with the girl behind the train info window at Charles De Gaulle International Airport, "mais mon francais est tres, tres mauvais." That translates roughly to "Sorry, sis, but my French bears a striking resemblance to almost anything else." Her hot little face lit up into one of those Christmas-tree smiles, the kind that bespeaks the dogged benevolence of the season. With her help (in perfect, lilting English), I was on my way out of Paris to join a group of fellow volunteers at Brossac, in France's Southwest. We're recasting a 16th-century farmhouse into an educational and cultural community, fueled by the best traditions of French commerce and exhaustive decency. It's the "exhaustive decency" part
I want to talk about today. The French have been refining it for centuries, often in a world whose snap judgments sell the culture totally short. Arrogant? Rude? Self-centered? That's part of the popular assessment of the French, the world's way of describing what it doesn't understand -- and while I'm far from an authority on the French psyche, I can testify to a clutch of real-life experiences that contradict the public mind and may have even saved part of this already exhausting trip. Truth be told, I was confronted with a couple challenges that centered on my mobility (read: I'm old). The sweetie at the airport was the first to notice, patiently suggesting a few remedies that included wheelchair assistance – and while that wasn't my first choice (read: I'm a diva), I gave in, since I didn't know the airport (let alone the language). My humility not only solved my navigation dilemma; it revealed an entire assistive network as much a part of France as French itself. My five-hour train ride consisted of two stops – at the end of which someone was there to greet me with a wheelchair each time. The remarkable thing is that I hadn't requested any extra help outside de Gaulle! Somehow, some way, my hosts figured it's better to be safe than sorry and had arranged to meet me by
default! No calling ahead on my part, no extra fee, no executive subcommittee. They knew to look for me simply because I'd bought a ticket, and they took everything from there. Absolutely unbelievable. They explained that they do that for everybody in a similar pickle – and history knows they've refined their ingenuity over lifetimes, from leading the way in special education to pioneering instruction for the deaf and the blind. The country embraces friendship in matters great and small, and it understandably reacts with a vague dismay in the face of the world's underwhelmed. If I'd been the center of the universe 230 years ago (as France was), and if my gifts to humanity had been taken for granted (as perhaps France's has), I suppose I'd be a little persnickety too. Maybe that's what's behind the appearance of arrogance and rudeness, when nothing more than wishes for commensurate world order are at play. I submit that the latter makes more sense, especially amid the litany of ground-level instances that reveal it. The sweet kid who genuinely worried for my welfare when my connection to Brossac was late to the train station. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com
ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF OLD TOWN Stagecoach Days: Celebrating the Wild West in San Diego Free Event Every Saturday in July and August in Old Town Old Town San Diego State Historic Park is celebrating travel and transportation in the era of real horsepower during “Stagecoach Days,” kicking off on July 11. Come join in the old-fashioned fun from the mid-1800s from noon to 4 p.m. on seven Saturdays in July and August. Sponsored by Fiesta de Reyes and Boosters of Old Town, the free event features a different theme each Saturday such as Days of the Vaqueros, Women of the West, Soldiers and Citizens, TwainFest and Taste of the Past. Attendees will enjoy afternoons filled with activities that reflect life in early San Diego and celebrate the West on the move.
Through living history activities and demonstrations, stories and songs, visitors will gain an appreciation for early modes of transportation and daily life.All activities are geared toward children and adults of all ages. “This year’s Stagecoach Days will be the best in our park’s history,”stated Event Coordinator Gregg Giacopuzzi. “We have added many more family-friendly activities to the event this year so visitors will get a true taste of what Old Town was like in the 1800s.” The Stagecoach Days schedule is as follows. July 18-“Women of the West”- Women played an important part in the development of the West. Some of their daily activities will be demonstrated on this Saturday.
One of the highlights of the day will be a quilt walk that features quilts celebrating the 150th anniversary of California State Parks. July 25-“Days of the Vaquero”- Vaqueros were the first cowboys in California. Highly skilled horsemen and cattle herders, they were an integral part of the early cattle trade in California. The day will celebrate their natural horsemanship techniques and other aspects of Californio culture. August 1 -“Trades That Shaped Westward Expansion” - As towns developed in the West so did the need for specialized trades and artisans. Old Town San Diego will present pivotal 19th century trades that helped shape the community of San Diego.
August 8-“Soldiers and Citizens”- The military has been part of San Diego since its inception. Following the Mexican American War, dragoons, the Mormon Battalion and the Boundary Commission all had an impact on life in San Diego. Old Town San Diego State Historic Park, with the support of Boosters of Old Town and Fiesta de Reyes, is proud to offer these free activities for adults and children of all ages. The park is located on San Diego Avenue and Twiggs Street in San Diego, and is conveniently located next to the Old Town Transit Center, with Coaster, Trolley, and MTS bus service.

From My Garden: Fire up the grill and enjoy Anaheim chilies
When the chilies have charred all over, place them in a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap.
With just a hint on heat, Anaheim chilies are easy to grow and their flavor will compliment many summer barbeque favorites. A perennial plant, the Anaheim chili will grow in containers or in the garden on 2 to 3 foot tall plants. Just like all chilies, the Anaheim's prefers a hot sunny location with well-drained soil and a fair amount of water. If you are planting from seed, plant them in the spring. From seed, the plants will take about 2 1/2 to 3 months to mature and harvest the chilies when they are about 4 to 8 inches in length. Anaheim chilies are usually harvested green, but you can also let them mature and turn brilliant red. If you keep the plants for several years, they will produce even more chilies and usually peak around
their third year. Nurseries carry Anaheim chili plants in both 6 packs and 4 inch pots that will allow you to plant now and enjoy them towards the end of the summer. As the plants grow, stake them for support and fertilize your plants at least once a month with a low nitrogen organic fertilizer, such as Doctor Earth's - Tomato, Vegetable & Herb Fertilizer (5-7-3). If chilies receive too much nitrogen, they will become bushy green plants with lots of leaves and very few chilies. If you read my column about Epsom salt, you will remember that chilies, as well as roses and tomatoes love magnesium sulfate, which is Epsom salt. Dissolve 1 tablespoon Epsom salts per gallon of water and pour it around your plants every two weeks as they are growing to make

healthy happy plants. After you harvest your chilies, throw them on the grill and let the skins blacken. When they have charred all over, place them in a bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap, which will allow the chilies to steam and make their papery skins peel off easily. Cut off the cap of the chili, slice it open and remove the seeds and veins with a paring knife. Don't be tempted to wash the chilies under water, since it will remove some of the flavor and use a paper towel instead to wipe off the seeds. Now you have chilies to use for chili rellenos (leave the cap on if you are making rellenos), salsa or slice them to use as a topping for delicious chili cheese turkey burgers.

Chilies, as well as roses and tomatoes, love Epsom salt.

Chili Cheese Turkey Burgers 1 pkg ground turkey (will make 3 large burgers) 1/4 cup onion, minced 3 tab cilantro, chopped 2 tab of your favorite chili powder, or to taste. Salt and pepper, to taste 2-3 tea olive oil Slices of grilled Anaheim chilies, slices of your favorite cheese, slices of avocado Lettuce leaves and salsa mayonnaise (mayo mixed with salsa, we like chipotle) Whole wheat hamburger buns, split and toasted Combine the turkey with 1 tab of chili powder, onion, cilantro, salt and pepper and shape into patties. Mix the remaining chili powder with the olive oil and brush the patties lightly with the mixture. Grill about 5-6 minutes per side on a hot oiled grill. After you flip the burgers, top them with the chilies and cheese and allow cheese to melt. Place the chili cheeseburgers on buns with lettuce leaves, slices of avocado and some salsa mayonnaise.

Community Fireworks in the sea
Sydney's Ocean Log By SYDNEY the GOLDEN SEAL I was terrified recently (I believe it was the fourth of this month) when war broke out. You must have heard the exploding artillery and seen urchin bodies bursting in air. What was the urchin skirmish about? During the warfare I mostly panicked, paced, and shook but in between I snuck a glance at the night sky so I know they were urchins. Were they blasted out of the water by cannon? I can say that there were no survivors because the urchins disappeared almost as fast as they appeared, with more urchins appearing, then disappearing. At least the mêlée was of short duration.
Worried I had witnessed an urchin apocalypse, the next morning I dunked myself into the drink and was relieved to see some urchins adorned in their crimson glory. Urchins come in many colors but red is my favorite. I’ve always felt simpatico with urchins, not just because they are shaped like a tennis ball but because we share the drive to chew. It’s a doggone shame we can’t hang out together, me needing to breathe air and all, because I could pick up a few tips on gnawing. Actually, that’s a pipe dream because I can only drool with envy over an urchin’s dental talents. They can literally grind through stone. Sure, it wrecks their teeth but it’s not a deal breaker. Let’s just say that if you had urchin teeth, dentists would have to find other things to drill and denture-makers would have to find other things to impress. You see, not only are urchin choppers constantly growing, they are self-sharpening. Urchin pearly whites fit
together as plates instead of incisor-molar arrangements. And each urchin tooth is a montage of two calcite crystal shapes. (Since lots of rocks are made up of mostly calcite, it seems fair to say that urchin teeth are practically rock themselves.) The two crystal types lie crosswise to each other and are glued together with a magical super-strong cement you won’t find at Home Depot. Between the hard crystals and super-dooper glue are layers of a weaker material that break from all the grinding. Think of the breakable areas like dog treat coupons you can neatly remove if you tear along the dotted-line perforations. Thus, the damaged ends break off along the fault lines while leaving the crux of the tooth intact. As the teeth keep growing, the old worn-out or broken parts are jettisoned and, voila, an edge as polished and honed as a Samurai’s sword. It’s a tad unfair that urchins get to have teeth
with super powers, seeing as how they are vegetarians. I have to keep reminding myself that the point of urchin toothiness isn’t about hunting prey but avoiding becoming prey. By boring through and carving out nooks in rock, urchins protect themselves from waves and predators. Imagine what it would be like if I had an urchin’s dental gifts. Yeah, I know. Those of you parents to children with fur are shuddering right about now. Maybe my dental dreams will become a reality for my distant furry relations. After all, we are all still evolving. The canine family sapling was planted only 60 million years ago. Since urchins rolled into being over 200 million years ago, they’ve had more time to perfect their perfect bite. And, of course, they’ve done a heck of a job on the survival front. Just look at their can-do attitude in the face of their recent brutal though brief battle. No one can accuse them of being spineless. Write to Sydney with your questions or comments: SydneyGoldenSeal@gmail.com
