With the assistance of a renowned La Jolla chef, a literary event planning and travel company with a La Jolla presence will host a benefit Sunday, Nov. 22, to provide humanitarian relief for the victims and survivors of last week’s terrorist attacks in Paris. Adventures by the Book, host of the Je Suis Paris benefit at The Cheese Store of San Diego, will offer numerous silent auction items, including dinner with a number of local authors with Franco-centric books to their credit. One such author, Mary Duncan (“Henry Miller Is Under My Bed”), lives in both La Jolla and Paris. Bernard Guillas, executive chef at La Jolla's The Marine Room and the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club, is donating all proceeds from sales of “Flying Pans: Two Chefs, One World,” his award-winning book about chefs and their spare time. French wine and goodies will also be available for purchase. “Everyone involved is volunteering their time and donating their services and goods,” said Susan McBeth, Adventures by the Book founder. “Our goal is to raise $5,000 for the French Red Cross to assist in its efforts with humanitarian relief in the wake of the tragic attacks last week.” Adventures by the Book, which

has held La Jolla-based seminars, was founded in 2011 and connects authors and their books with the reading community through interactive literary events and literary travel packages. Terrorist attacks at seven Paris sites on Nov. 13 resulted in 129 deaths and 352 injuries, with 99 of the injured in critical condition. “I just returned from Paris a week ago,” said Jennifer Coburn, author of “We'll Always Have Paris” and planner of the event along with McBeth – “and after the attacks... , I received numerous texts from family and friends saying how relieved they were that I was no longer there. I knew they meant well, but it was the exact opposite of how I felt. I wanted to be back in Paris helping however I could.” McBeth, who also recently

returned from Paris, felt similarly at a loss as to what she could do to support the city she had grown to love. “We were literally planning this event driving back from an event (last weekend) in Los Angeles,” McBeth said, “and were amazed at the immediate and enthusiastic support we received. Within hours, we had commitments for appearances and book donations... The Cheese Store of San Diego offered their space at no cost, and more donations keep coming in. It is wonderful to live in a community like San Diego, where an outpouring of support is such a natural response.” “It will be very gratifying,” Coburn added, “to send a donation to the French Red Cross and let the people of Paris know that our hearts are with them.” The event begins at 6 p.m. The Cheese Store of San Diego is located at 1980 Kettner Blvd. downtown. RSVPs to the event are appreciated but not required. For further information on the Je Suis Paris event, please email susan@adventuresbythebook.co m. To make a donation to the effort, mail checks to Adventures by the Book, PO Box 421472, San Diego, CA 92142.

A Witness to One's Life Hefty challenges: Choosing a distant trustee Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. In trying to deal with my grief after my husband died, I turned to books on grief and interviewed people who had lost a spouse or partner. It helped me to understand the emotions I felt and whether they were shared by others. I looked at the different ways men and women dealt with the loss, what worked, what didn’t and how people managed their lives when left alone. Hopefully, this would give me and others a roadmap of what to expect. Everyone grieves differently. There is no right or wrong way, but there are patterns that can be recognized and managed better. In interviewing widows and widowers, I found one uniformly spoken complaint: loneliness. Not surprisingly, they missed the companionship of their spouses or partners. If there is no one to share your thoughts and reactions with — to talk to about the movie, to discuss a newspaper article with or to tell who you met for a meal — that event loses continuity. It can never be referred to again because no one else knows it happened. Not only is there no one who knows where you have gone or what you have done or seen, no one cares. I understand why people tweet or use Facebook — they are searching for someone to share the minutiae of their daily activities. It is a quest for someone to know and care about one’s comings and goings. In other words, to find a witness to one’s life. Although I have many good friends, most are part of a couple and therefore less available. This seems to be pervasive among the people I talked to. Some women had best friends they could talk to on a daily basis, and a few had children that were available to share each other’s mundane daily activities, such as what they ate for dinner or watched on TV that seemed to help. Some of the men also had best friends, but none called on a regular basis, and so they were not privy to each other’s lives. The fact that no one cares about the minutiae of daily events as lived by the widowed person is not something that was mentioned by the people I interviewed or in the literature — only the abject loneliness. I

may invite family and administrative woes

extrapolated the lack of interest and caring as a major component of what one misses in widowhood from my own experiences. No one is the center of my life, nor am I the center of anyone’s life. There is no one whose daily comings and goings matter to me. I want to care deeply for another person and be involved in that person’s life. Even small children have dolls or stuffed animals they carry around. They are objects for the child to take care of, not objects that take care of the child. These children are creating a symbolic representation with which to practice the basic human social need to love and to care for someone. I wish to love someone again, not just be loved. So what is the solution? Another person equally alone who would also like to fill the empty hours with a human voice, a person who wants to know what you did today. Someone you can be vulnerable with, who knows your secrets, who cares for your happiness and can be counted on in bad times — usually someone you have known for a while, someone who has participated in the events of your past. Sometimes, if you are fortunate enough, you can make surprisingly fast connections that are truly meaningful. Not everyone I talked to needed this kind of intimate connection, but many did, and they expressed it as loneliness. However, not everyone has this need for companionship. In addition, I met several selfsufficient people content to be on their own, but the majority, especially after a recent loss, were suffering from the lack of available give and take that is the essence of emotionally intimate relationships. If one cannot have the one friend who is always there, a witness to one’s life, the solution is to have several friends who together fulfill one’s needs. I have friends I go to movies with; some I eat with on a regular basis; some I talk about politics and books with; some have met my children; a few remember my husband. What is most important in widowhood is friends — for it is only friends who can guard against that pervasive and painful feeling of loneliness. Natasha Josefowitz taught the first course in the U.S. on women in management and is the author of 20 books. She lives at the White Sands in La Jolla.

Ask the Retirement Concierge Sharonann Hamilton

Dear SharonAnn, My wife and I set up our family trust several years ago. We have two grown children and named them as successor co-trustees should we be unable to act. Some friends of ours did the same thing with their three adult children. We know them and their situations. One son lives in Perth, one son lives in Shanghai and their daughter lives in BoraBora, and they all come home to visit about once every three years. I read something about the details of being a trustee, and I’ve been telling them it is a bad idea. In fact, it may even be a bad idea for us even though ours live in Key West, Fla. and Marshall, Ark. What do you suggest? Signed, Perplexed Hello, Perplexed! You are right to be thinking about the problems of naming or being a distant trustee. There are hefty challenges. From having to find paperwork to emptying out a home, moving someone incapacitated and changing ownerships to become successor trustee at times adds up to hundreds of details. Being a trustee is a large gift of service no matter who is handling your estate, even when he or she is paid a fee. It can also be a burden for someone unprepared; co-trustees are each held 100 percent responsible for the activities of the trust. So even if one child moves back home for the 6 to 12 months it might take to handle the estate, the absent trustees are equally, legally responsible. Trustees are personally responsible for several important duties: duty of loyalty – trust to be administered solely in the interest of the beneficiaries; duty of prudence – trustee held to an objective standard of care in managing the trust property; and subsidiary duties – impartiality among classes of beneficiaries, not to commingle trust property with trustee property and accounting to the beneficiaries. When you make your adult children your successor trustees, they must agree together on the details. If they are far away, someone has to be onsite to physically oversee matters at home. If your successor trustees cannot be present, they must hire a local person, often an attorney or a private trustee. In addition to joint accountability, what happens when co-trustees disagree? Sadly if compromises cannot be made, both will hire an attorney for representation. Legal fees have been known to consume entire fortunes! So you, as grantor parents, just try to do the fair thing and name all

children as co-trustees, never dreaming you could be laying the groundwork for a family war. No one will win! From a logistics standpoint, trying to get signatures from co-trustees who live overseas, or even who live in the United States, is time-consuming at best. Some forms require original signatures. That adds to FedEx's or DHL’s bottom line [personal delivery service to and from overseas cities]. But imagine: A form needs to be signed by all trustees. It would have to be sent from here to Perth, then to Shanghai, then to BoraBora, then back to the States. Image opening a trust bank account, signed by trustees, assuming the bank even accepts nonresidents as cotrustees. It could all be an administrative nightmare! A short list of details in trust administration: Change the title of property to successor trustee names, open a new bank account with successor trustee names, change ownerships of investments assets into successor trustee names, pay bills, create accounting for all the details and getting tax returns prepared. Potentially, the trustees must empty the house and prepare it to be sold. All of the papers in the house must be read to look for annuities and life insurance. Claims must be filed. This is known as gathering the assets. Once gathered, the trust dictates the

terms of distribution. Some trusts have language that create a subtrust, such as a special needs trust or a trust for a spendthrift adult child. The reasons are to preserve government benefits and to dole out the money over time so it will not be blown all at once, respectively. The attorney will create the trust but must be hired by the successor trustee to do so. There are some alternatives to naming your children as successors: naming your attorney to administer the trust, hiring a corporate trust company or finding a private trustee. There will be costs to the estate, but most parents would agree that not burdening their children and keeping peace in the family is worth it. After all, the goal of the trust is not about planning for your death but planning for the best possible future for your children and grandchildren.

How to save thousands when selling your home When you decide to sell your home, setting your asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Depending on how a buyer is made aware of your home, price is often the first thing he or she sees, and many homes are discarded by prospective buyers as not being in the appropriate price range. Your asking price is often your home’s “first impression,” and if you want to realize the most money you can for your home, it’s imperative that you make a good first impression. This is not as easy as it sounds, and pricing strategy should not be taken lightly. Pricing too high can be as costly to a homeseller as pricing too low. A

recent study, which compiles 10 years of industry research, has resulted in a new special report entitled “Homesellers: How to Get the Price You Want (and Need).” This report will help you understand pricing strategy from three different angles. When taken together, this information will help you price your home to not only sell, but sell at the price you want.

UFC partisan Alyaa Habib: A woman's place is wherever she says By ED PIPER Alyaa Habib has a mission at this point in her life. Through the modeling by her forceful mother Jasmin and her own decisions, the 15-yearold University City High School sophomore wants to show people that a woman can be strong and purposeful. She doesn’t have to be a wallflower and play the passive role of the traditional female. But the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) contender also wants to demonstrate that going out for the Centurion wrestling team and her participation in mixed martial arts and boxing aren’t the only ways she wants to embody this life mission. “I definitely think the fighting is a blip in what I want to do,” says the clear-eyed, precocious grappler.

“The thing I want to put out is the strength of a woman. One day, I’ll be able to say that I (as a woman) fought men.” Habib works out “at least two times a week,” which involves grappling – at once her own word and a throwback to the '70s, a reporter tells her – with her UFC coach, Matt Carson, in the gym off Rosecrans Boulevard in San Diego. She also rides a bike on Mission Bay with her dad Jamal every afternoon. A life-changing incident, she says, propelled her on this path of feminine strength. When Habib was 11 years old, a homeless man “chased me and said ‘I’ll rape you.' I ran. There is no way he was going to rape me. From that moment, I wanted to be a woman who could protect herself as much as a man can.” Sitting across the lunch table out-

side the UCHS gym, Habib doesn’t convey an anger, a rage that would make her a fearful, reactive individual. Instead, she seems quite comfortable with herself. The incident with the homeless man merely crystallized an intention that was growing inside her to that point. She is not a proponent of violence. And she is not ready to go off at any moment. She is an attractive young high school student who hangs out with buddies like her female friends Rama Youssef and Allison Busch, both of whom were quite playful during Habib’s interview and dodged in and out of the scene, wanting to get involved. “Before the incident with the homeless guy, I played volleyball, soccer – girls’ fun sports,” she calls Alyaa Habib (lower right), with friends Rama Youssef (left) and Allison SEE HABIB>> PG. 16 Busch (taking over at piggyback): 'Does (make-up) make me weaker?'

La Jolla team wins Jr. Pee Wee Pop Warner football championship By ED PIPER Cody Bradley is a walking advertisement for Junior Pee Wee Pop Warner football. The 11-year-old, all 74 pounds of him, is enthusiastic, he’s enjoying the sport, and he’s outgoing and making friends as a sixthgrader at his new middle school, Muirlands. Bradley, Gervy Alota, Julian Solis, Cole Roberts and their Torreys teammates won the San Diego Pop Warner championship in their division on Oct. 31, and they’ve relished playoff football, including a narrow win in the regional quarterfinals that qualified them for the semifinals Nov. 14 against the Tustin Gold Cobras at Mission Viejo High School (the Torreys lost, 30-13). Team members come from the La Jolla, Pacific Beach, UTC and Clairemont areas and range in age from 8 to 11. “Our season has been going really good because we won and because Coach Scott (Rosecrans) and Coach Gervy (Alota, Gervy Jr.’s dad) have taught me you have to have a good attitude to play football,” says Bradley. “You also have to have good ability to tackle and to run. You also have to have good citizenship. You have to be a good person outside of school.” Founded in Philadelphia in 1929, Pop Warner Little Scholars, Inc. was the first youth sports organization in America that required its participants to perform in the classroom before permitting them to play. Pop Warner, named for Cornell University football captain Glenn Scobey Warner, who became a college coach in the late 19th century, believes that the standards give these children a sense of responsibility and an appreciation for academics and athletics that will help them

develop later on in life. Proof of satisfactory progress in school is required. A 2.0 or 70 percent grade level or the equivalent shall be the minimum average acceptable for participation. Bradley says the 31 players on the Torreys get along with all the harmony and squabbles of a family. If he has a disagreement with a teammate, he says, “You have to talk to him, or if you don’t like something he’s doing you have to walk away, because you’re not going to get in physical fights.” Bradley’s parents are Chad and

Nacole, and his siblings include Taylor, 19, Kassidy, 16, and Baylee, 13. He stands 4’10” at this point. Julian Solis, 11, of Pacific Beach, plays offensive guard. He’s a little shell-shocked by the attention a champion Junior Pee Wee team gets, feeling nervous during an interview. His older brother reassures him. Julian, in his third year playing Pop Warner, says, “We just work together as a team. We have fun. We do everything together as a family.” In response to Rosecrans’ statement that “to a man, everyone on the team has improved,” the Muir-

lands student says in his case, “Yeah, definitely, a lot, because the coaches have been helping me a lot.” Dad is Michael. Brothers are Anthony, 31, and Miguel, 12. Gervy Alota, Jr., 11, is a go-getter as well. In his fourth year in Pop Warner, he has played quarterback from the beginning. “He’s a great kid to coach,” Rosecrans says. “He listens to what you say; he takes instruction; he executes what you ask him to do. He has a very high football I.Q. He’s just a very experienced player with a lot of ability.” Other 11-year-olds on the Torreys

include Rafaello Amato, Sebastian Glausier, Colton Moseley, Michael Padilla, Joseph Shepard, Shawn Steinbock, Bidzina Vetsko, Christopher White and Jevon White. The Torreys cut no kids who register for the program, and everyone plays a position on offense and defense. This year’s edition, with Rosecrans in his seventh year of coaching, has built a team atmosphere and friendship from first through third and fourth strings. “This team isn’t unique in that regard,” Rosecrans says. “This team has a good attitude and good approach. Each player is supportive of each other. You can’t have 31 players and everyone be best friends. But they’ve bought in to the team philosophy.” Rosecrans says one of the reasons he coaches, though he doesn’t have a son on the team, is because he’d rather implement his philosophy and his methods than have approaches he doesn’t agree with carried out. A volunteer away from his job in the San Diego County Environmental Health Department, he says he wants a young person to have an enjoyable experience in playing the sport. Rosecrans says he and his fellow coaches are “very aware” of parents’ concerns over concussions and other injuries in football. But he makes the case that in youth football there are fewer injuries due to the low impact that young players are able to generate compared to older athletes. By playing youth football, he adds, athletes learn techniques that help them develop better skills if they continue on in football, and injuries are thereby reduced. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

Amid the Paris attacks, Marianne grows more beautiful by the hour By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN As you may know, I was an editorial liaison in France last July, having gone to the country's Southwest to help a cultural center with its efforts at becoming an educationally accredited facility. It was my first business trip off the continent in 40 years and my first journey abroad in probably eight – but whatever excitement I felt at the prospect was tempered a little as I landed at Paris' Charles de Gaulle International Airport on our Independence Day. January's infamous Charlie Hebdo murders, in which 17 journalists and others were killed in a religious attack on a satirical newspaper, were fresh in Parisians' minds, and airport personnel had reacted accordingly. On my arrival, paramilitary troops furtively patrolled the facility, their camos and red berets and high-powered rifles sharply distinguishable from the tens of thousands of travelers whose gazes the soldiers took great care not to meet. Some of those kids looked like they were about 18, old enough to drink under French law but relatively unskilled in the ways of a colossally hostile planet. The Theatre du Bataclan and the Stade de France were more their speed – places where they

could leave their baby pokerfaces at work and enjoy a Friday night in one of the monumentally greatest cities the world will ever know. Some hours later on Nov. 13, they'd have taken sober heed of the meaning behind their public presence on the job. In the face of terrorism's latest assault on humanity, everything about sympathy for and solidarity with the French has been said, except that it's writ larger and bolder with each day's aftermath from the ISIS attacks at seven sites, the most lethal on Paris since World War II. The death toll at this point is steady at 129, with 352 injured, 99 critically. Eighty-nine were killed at the Bataclan rock concert alone. In reprisal, France has launched a series of air attacks on ISIS' de facto stronghold of Raqqa, Syria. Amid the fallout from a civilian aircraft bombing in October, Russia has echoed French sentiment by pounding ISIS with the largest air assault in decades, deploying its fleet of 25 long-range bombers to do so. (The latest report says attack mastermind Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 28, was killed in an apartment raid

north of Paris on Nov. 18. I'm hoisting a glass as I write.) Finally, it looks like the world's had enough – and I say that with some hesitation, because the United States has a funny way of redrawing its lines in the sand. President Obama appears to want ISIS to weaken Syrian President Bashar Assad's dubious place in Mideast affairs, but he'd rather not risk too decisive an Assad defeat lest ISIS take power. Amid the politics of it all, he vacillates while France and Russia do the heavy lifting. Such stances make me long for a recast Marianne – the French socalled goddess of liberty, a symbol of all that is ideal in the West. You can't go anywhere in France without trip-

ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF OLD TOWN Holiday Events in Old Town to be Held Throughout December Old Town San Diego State Historic Park will be decked out in historic holiday finery this year and will showcase gingerbread house displays throughout the park as well as a tree-lighting ceremony with caroling starting at 5 p.m. every Saturday in the month of December. The caroling around the display of nine Christmas trees will be followed each Saturday evening with a bonfire in the plaza complete with free s’mores and hot choco-

late, readings and more singing. The annual Holiday in the Park Merchant Open House will be held on Saturday, Dec. 12, from noon to 9 p.m. Crafts for children and special holiday treats will be in the museums, stores and restaurants in Old Town San Diego State Historic Park during the day with an evening bonfire and extended shopping hours until 9 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 13, marks the 65th-annual Las Posadas event in Old Town. The Las Posadas pro-

cession is a walking reenactment of the biblical story of Mary and Joseph’s search for a birthplace for Jesus. Everyone is invited to join the candlelit procession, starting at 4:45 p.m., and sing traditional holiday songs in both Spanish and English as the players go from inn to inn, symbolically asking for lodging. The procession will include local actors playing the parts of Joseph and the innkeepers. The procession culminates with

a live nativity tableau in front of Casa de Estudillo along with a choir performance. The events are sponsored by Wells Fargo Foundation and The Old Town State Park Merchants Association. There is free parking available in the Caltrans parking lot on Taylor Street in Old Town after 5 p.m. on weekdays and all day on weekends. For more information about any of these events, visit Fiestadereyes.com or call 619297-3100.

ping over her; she's on postage stamps, French Euro coins, posters and the walls and staves of public buildings, getting her land legs during the French Revolution in support of all things democratic and free. “Liberte, egalite, fraternite,” reads the national motto beneath her silhouetted face – and the thing is, you'd be hard-pressed to find her bearing a weapon in any of her depictions. She might eschew the military angle to France's damnable problems – but she's also savvy enough to understand that warfare is the exception that makes the rule. I saw a big poster of her near the airport last summer, and I remem-

ber thinking at the same time that those troops' rifles probably weren't loaded – ramifications at the airport and in the French courts would have been uproarious if something had gone wrong to hurt a passenger or de Gaulle personnel, especially since those weapons were in the hands of guys barely out of boyhood. With the Nov. 13 attacks, however, I wouldn't blame whatever administration for ammo'ing up, in public or not. Amid its ongoing state of emergency, France has the libertarian world's blessing as it goes about its task, its national allegory growing more beautiful by the hour. God bless the French republic – and vive la Marianne. Martin Jones Westlin is editor of La Jolla Village News.

News Town Council hears city greenhouse emissions pitch By DAVE SCHWAB In November, La Jolla Town Council got a pitch from proponents of the San Diego Climate Action Plan, an ambitious proposal before the City to curb long-term green-

house emissions, and heard about progress being made on the La Jolla Christmas parade and in eradicating underage drinking and drug problems in the Beach-Barber Tract. Kiera Galloway gave a slideshow

presentation about global warming and the City's draft Climate Action Plan, which seeks to convince half of the residents in urban areas to commute by transit, walking and bicycling by 2035. SEE TOWN>> PG. 17

La Jolla Shores group files suit over Whitney project By DAVE SCHWAB Less than a month after San Diego City Council voted 6-2 to deny an appeal of the environmental document for the Whitney mixed-use project in La Jolla Shores, opponents have filed a lawsuit attempting to block it. Extending nearly seven years of wrangling over whether the proposed development is too bulky and out of scale with the surrounding neighborhood, attorney Julie Hamilton filed a lawsuit Nov. 3 in San Diego Superior Court on behalf of a group known as La Jolla Shores Tomorrow. The lawsuit challenges the project's approved environmental documents as being inadequate and contends the project violates the Shores Planned Development Ordinance (PDO), the community's development blueprint. “The fact is this particular project is much larger than anything else that's been built in this community,” said Hamilton, adding, “The whole point of the PDO was to retain the community's small-town village character.” Developers Bob and Kim Whitney want to demolish a pair of singlestory buildings on a 0.09-acre lot at 2202 and 2206 Avenida de la Playa on the northeast corner of El Paseo Grande in the Shores commercial center and replace them with an 8,518-square-foot, three-story building with retail on the ground level and two condominiums above. The Whitney project has been a bone of contention in La Jolla Shores since 2009. Some Shores residents contend the project is not only too massive and violates the Shores PDO but, if approved, would set an irrevocable precedent for other developers to follow. Hamilton argued that the cityapproved environmental document for the project is insufficient in numerous ways. Among them, she said, is lack of proper “visibility triangles”

leading from the project's proposed driveway, creating a safety hazard on Calle Clara, a disputed alley/street in the rear of the project site. “The community as a whole who use Calle Clara for walking and riding bikes are very concerned about the size of the building and the safety hazard its lack of visibility triangles presents,” said Hamilton. “I'm challenging the environmental and discretionary approvals and other permitting for the project.” “The City Council failed to consider the project along with its consideration of the (environmental impact report),” the lawsuit contends, “thereby foreclosing the City Council's ability to reach its own conclusions concerning the contents of the EIR. The City Council heard the EIR without hearing the merits of the project and therefore did not have the ability to modify the project to avoid or lessen impacts.” The lawsuit goes on to conclude that “The (project's) EIR fails to include an accurate, stable and consistent description of the proposed project. … The analysis of land use impacts is inadequate and fails to properly identify significant impacts. … The project does not comply with the (Shores) PDO in that it severely contrasts with the surrounding neighborhood character … It is reasonably foreseeable that this project will have a cumulative effect on neighborhood character by allowing significantly larger buildings in the commercial center in the future.” “The whole purpose of the lawsuit is to protect the character of the commercial center in La Jolla Shores,” said Hamilton. “It's unfortunate that we had to come to this place. This is what had to be done. We strongly encourage Mr. Whitney to redesign the project in a manner in keeping with the character of the community so we can get out of this litigation.” The Whitneys could not be reached for comment.

One in five San Diegans don’t necessarily know where their next meal is coming from, and that’s ironic as Thanksgiving approaches. University High School senior Daniel Krasner has drawn a bead on this; his work with the school’s Hand Up club is designed to promote food awareness and work the field accordingly.

For charity league chapter, this was a day at the races Fashion Files

Diana Cavagnaro

The National Charity League of San Diego Del Norte chapter presented a luncheon and fashion show on Nov. 8 at Carlsbad's Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, with a Day at the Races theme. Chapter president Michele Jaffee welcomed the guests, and emcee Kristin Edwards and Kelly Zimmer introduced the show. The models were from the Ticktocker Class of 2018 and included high school students from La Jolla Country Day, Canyon Crest Academy, The Bishop’s School, Torrey Pines High School, Cathedral Catholic High School, Pacific Ridge and Santa Fe Christian. These young ladies took modeling

The nonprofit National Charity League, Inc. has been around for more than 50 years and works through more than 196 chapters. The organization encourages a mother-daughter relationship with a strong volunteer base fostering strong leaders. Each chapter is committed to improving local communities by hands-on volunteerism. The daughters participate in a six-year program with this philanthropic work. For more information, visit nationalcharityleague.org.

UPCOMING EVENTS The modeling classes paid off for these high school students at the Nov. 8 National Charity League event. They were followed by the Escorts and a duo that danced their way into everyone's heart during the finale. PHOTOS BY DIANA CAVAGNARO

classes from Andria Elam and AllStar Dance Studio. They also took a hat- making workshop to make black accouterments for the first scene. The crowd went wild for this segment, called “Down the Stretch They Come.” The girls looked stylish wearing the fascinators they made along with black gloves.

The next scene provided trendy fashions by LF La Jolla. The show continued with one fashion-forward scene after another up to Race Eleven, the finale. The girls had so much fun as they came down the catwalk, and this was one of the most receptive crowds I have ever seen at a fashion show. Adding to the excite-

ment of the show were the Escorts, a group of young men also from various high schools. The crowd went wild during one segment wherein the Escorts came down the runway on hobbyhorses. Julie Fought, from SD Visual Productions, choreographed this delightful show.

Former Globe artistic chief O'Brien directs a ‘Great’ opera Opera lovers: I guarantee you will love Jake Heggie’s new work, “Great Scott,” which will play San Diego Opera in May and which I attended at its premiere on Friday, Oct. 30, amid a Texas-size deluge at Winspear Opera House in Dallas. The entirely fictional libretto is by opera-loving, Tony Award-winning playwright Terrence McNally and directed by former Old Globe artistic director Jack O’Brien, who also knows his way around an opera house and has a statuette or two on his mantelpiece. Arden Scott, the heroine, looks into the mirror Marschallin-like, takes a gander at her aging self and wonders if the personal sacrifice necessary for a career like hers is worth the effort. She is starring in a long-lost Rossinilike opera titled “Rosa Dolorosa, figlia di Pompeii,” in which she throws herself into Mt. Vesuvius to save her beloved city. As the hero points out, it

didn’t work. Meanwhile, the composer and I played catch-up on the phone this week, and he recounted the perils of his own popularity. Following the new opera’s opening night, Heggie flew to Los Angeles, where his fiveyear-old “Moby-Dick” (premiered in Dallas in June of 2000) had its L.A. Opera debut Saturday, Oct. 31. Then he flew back to Dallas in time for the Sunday matinee of “Great Scott.” He and McNally are currently fine-tuning the acclaimed new work, which plays here May 7, 10, 13 and 15.

On Nov. 6, San Diego Repertory Theatre’s production of “Honky” inaugurated PBS-TV’s new series, “On Stage in America,” quite a feather in the Rep's and the City of San Diego’s caps. Greg Kallerres’s send-up of racism and post-racial attitudes played very well on TV for which it was filmed during its run last season. All should be lauded, especially director Sam Woodhouse. In case you’d forgotten, the Rep is celebrating its 40th season this year. Currently playing through Dec. 6 is Sarah Ruhl’s “The Oldest Boy.” In the adjacent Lyceum Space, you can catch Intrepid Theatre’s production of “The End of the Rainbow” through Nov. 29.

Other Live Plays, by George One of the best things on the boards currently is InnerMission Productions’ “Precious Little,” playing in Diversionary Theatre’s new Black Box through Nov. 21 only. It’s a most unusual play by Madeleine George, author of “The (strange case of the) Watson Intelligence,” currently playing at MOXIE Theatre. One of the major characters in “Precious Little” is a simpatico great ape played by Kathi Copeland, who also plays an aged Eastern European woman who is one of the last living speakers of her language, usurped when her country was subsumed by Russia many years ago. Others in the company, directed by Karla Nell, are Jennie Olson Six as a pregnant lesbian past her prime childbearing years and Jyl Kaneshiro, who plays multiple roles. innermissionproductions.org or (619) 324-8980.

Fledgling Catania delights in traditional techniques By TERRI STANLEY Named after a city located on the east coast of the island of Sicily, this less-than-a-year-old restaurant, located at La Plaza Center, is a toedip into Europe. Open for lunch and dinner as well as brunch on the weekends, Catania is the newest addition to the Whisknladle Hospitality Group, offering ocean views over the rooftops of the Girard Street stores, an open-air patio and cozy inside seating both casual and upscale. The restaurant defines its fare as coastal Italian so as not to pigeonhole the cuisine into specific areas of southern Italy, and the dishes are about as authentic to the region as they can get. Southern Italian cooking has been farm to table for centuries; you eat what you grow. Catania’s daily menu is a collaboration of executive chef Vince Schofield and partner Ryan Johnson. Although of Mexican descent, Schofield trained in Tuscany for years and speaks fluent Italian. He has a specific idea of the kind of cuisine he wants to serve and how. “We try to stick to very traditional techniques, sometimes 125-year

traditions,” says Schofield. “Then we use the things that are around us, the things that are fresh here, the things that are local, and put them into a dish where they blend, meld and come together.” This lunch began with homemade sodas – orange tarragon, lemon thyme and apple clove, refreshingly delicious with just a hint of sweetness. Over ice or spiked with a suggested alcohol, the drinks prepare the palate for what’s to come – dancing taste buds.

The menu is varied and uncomplicated and has something for everyone. The choices of antipasti are not numerous, but they are interesting. Neither the Ahi Crudo nor the Crispy Octopus disappointed – many restaurants offer octopus, but very few prepare it correctly. This dish was crispy on the outside and delicately firm on the inside, paired with merguez sausage, chick peas and capers. The Ahi Crudo was presented beautifully, with various shades of red among the ingredients – beets, meyer lemon (a cross between a lemon and a mandarin or orange), poppyseed and basil. Duck Sugo Orecchiette, the most popular item on the menu, was chosen as the pasta. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

UC High senior has a hunger for community service By SANDY LIPPE

Leadership coordinator Andrew Hoffman (left) hails University City High School senior Daniel Krasner's efforts in the realm of food awareness. About one in five San Diegans are said to be food insecure. PHOTO BY SANDY LIPPE

Food insecurity isn't a term most of us are familiar with in University City or La Jolla, especially at Thanksgiving. However, according to Andrew Hoffman, coordinator of Hand Up Teen Leadership at the Jewish Family Service (JFS), “a half million San Diegans are food insecure. That is about 1 in 5 people who don't know where their next meal will come from.” Hoffman is happy to show off the upgraded JFS facility in the Kearny Mesa area, especially the Esther and Bud Fischer Hand Up Youth Food Pantry, as he introduced Daniel Krasner, a senior at University City

High School, teen co-chair of Team Leadership at JFS. Thirty-four teens in Teen Leadership are learning social change and how to make a difference for good in people's lives. Krasner is engaged in good works as the president of the Hand Up club at University City High School. He is a likable young man with a ready grin, although this is a serious weekend, when he sends out college applications and has tryouts for varsity soccer. His duties as cochair for Team Leadership involve coordinating events, teaching high school students to have a food awareness and go to local stores to SEE KRASNER>> PG. 18

SOUND OF THE SEASON Apparently, different classes of turkeys live on both coasts -- and this year's UCSD Turkey Calling Show is designed to help you see why West Coast turkeys rule. The event, set for Wednesday, Nov. 25 at noon in the Seuss Room of UCSD's Geisel Library, is presented in the style of an old-time live radio broadcast, filled with music and audience participation. You'll get instruction on how to use turkey calls and find out how the American turkey became popular in European art. The free event is hosted by sound effects expert Scott Paulson (pictured) and features the Teeny-Tiny Pit Orchestra and many special guests. The Los Angles Times described Paulson as “a sort of modern-day morphing of Captain Kangaroo and Spike Jones; [his work is] always lively and at times wonderfully chaotic.” PHOTO CONTRIBUTED

Why not take advantage of that with valet spots in commercial areas like Girard and Prospect?” New trustee Ike Fazzio pointed out valet “could be a bargaining chip” for merchants, especially restaurateurs, to leverage their businesses.

them. “Stereotypical female sports. Obviously, I’m a feminist. If you think of a fighter, you think of a male.” About the violence, she says: “There’s a fine line between fighting and MMA (mixed martial arts). I’m not for street fighting. Not at all. I’m not violent. I have a love for the ring. I love the cage (UFC has a fence around its octagonal floor, whereas boxing has two or three ropes). In the cage, there is nowhere to go.” Her strength in UFC is her ground game, in which she favors armlocks, jointlocks, and a move called the guillotine.

her school as a freshman. The coach told her that she couldn’t do wrestling and UFC concurrently. This winter, with the tryout date for wrestling approaching, she fully intends to do what it takes to wrestle with the boys. In her grappling bouts with her opposite numbers, she has gone through the adjustment males have to make in getting comfortable physically laying hands on a female’s body. “I join new teams all the time,” she says. “There are guys who are way stronger than women. “There are men who don’t want to do the wrong thing (in touching a taboo part).” Ever the young woman assessing where she is, Habib clarifies: “This (UFC) is my sport. It’s not my life. It’s not something I brag about at school to my friends.”

Board member Nancy Warwick said last year's Sparkle & Shine Village clean-up campaign was so successful that the group is going to continue doing it on an ongoing basis. “Last year, the Sparkle & Shine campaign raised $74,000 from residences and businesses paying to have their names put on (promotional) banners,” Warwick said, noting the nonprofit La Jolla Town Foundation has been collecting funds raised in the

Which is why she says competitive fighting is only her way of carrying out her mission at this point in her life. That feminine militancy will take other forms at other times. Asked about the seeming contradiction between a female who grapples and one who remains feminine, she responds: “I can get dolled up with makeup, like any other girl. How many male boxers gel their hair on a daily basis? Then why wouldn’t I be able to wear make-up? Does that make me weaker?” The future wrestler loves kale “and any kind of pressed juice,” mango gelato, sushi (does every area high school student love sushi?) and “the original tart” flavor of frozen yogurt – which Youssef chimes in and calls “froyo.”

Thanksgiving is that thyme of year

By LINDA MARRONE

This is what you get if you follow Marrone's recipe. That's a far cry from the tender young thyme beginning to grow.

The earthy taste of thyme is one of the flavors we add to many of our Thanksgiving recipes. A member of the mint family but with a more savory flavor, thyme is a Mediterranean herb that prefers very little water, making it a perfect choice for drought- tolerant gardens. Growing it with little water actually intensifies its flavor. There are endless varieties of thyme that can be used for culinary purposes, ground covers or just a lovely addition to the gardenscape or containers. Leaf colors range from lime green to gold, with several variegated varieties that include yellow or white edges on the leaves. The herb's tiny flowers come in white, pink and lavender and will attract bees. You can harvest both the leaves and flowers for cooking. Types of culinary thyme include

“The Climate Action Plan,” Galloway said, “is a roadmap for local government or business to address climate change, and the aim is to get us to 100 percent clean energy by 2035 using transit, walking and biking.” She noted that this is going to require “a big investment in changing out infrastructure to make it safe” for alternative transportation users. Galloway noted that the San Diego Climate Action Plan, which the City is expected to tackle in the near future, has “been in develop-

ment for five years and gone through four different mayors,” adding that it's been a “frustrating process.” But she noted she's optimistic about the measure's ultimate passage given that both current Mayor Kevin Faulconer and previous interim mayor Todd Gloria have conceptually backed the plan. Town council board member Ann Kerr-Bache, who's spearheaded the annual La Jolla Christmas Parade & Holiday Festival for years, noted that “We need donations so the Grinch doesn't ruin Christmas.” She added the 58th annual parade and holiday festival is Sunday, Dec. 6, will include

pavers. When you step on creeping thyme, it will bounce back and release its woodsy scent. Small thyme plants can be found at most nurseries and garden centers. Plant this herb in a sunny spot with well-drained soil. If you are using culinary thyme, your plants will need to be replaced every couple of years, because as it grows, thyme becomes "woody" and will no longer produce the tender leaves preferred for cooking. Consider planting a container filled with thyme, rosemary and sage to use in your fall and winter cooking or to give as a gift. Linda is a Realtor with Coldwell Banker in La Jolla.

Kerr-Bache also noted positive developments in efforts by BeachBarber Tract neighbors who've been lobbying police, lifeguards and the City to beef up patrols at La Jolla pocket beaches to curb underage drinking and drug abuse. “I would like to thank San Diego Police Northern Division and the San Diego Lifeguards Beach Patrol, as they are breaking through to get to the right (offenders) through increased surveillance,” Kerr-Bache said.

ask for food donations. He also promotes a higher awareness of food insecurity issues on social media. More than 35 club members are on his Hand Up roster at UCHS. "I bumped it up from 10 early on," he said proudly. Krasner credits his older brother Ari with getting him interested in this mission. "My brother started the program as a freshman,” he said. “I joined my sophomore year. We have volunteered for JFS since we were little. Ari goes to George Washington University in D.C and just turned 20. I hope to go to USC... such a nice school. Competition is so tough; grade point average, SAT, community service all play a role. I have been president of Hand Up both junior and senior year." Daniel got his start in education at the Jewish Academy in Carmel Valley from kindergarten through grade 3. Then he went to a small school near Montgomery Field, Soille Hebrew Day School, for grades 4 to 8. He entered UCHS as a ninthgrader. A pantry holds lots of food at this JFS facility. The Hand Up Youth Pantry distributes supplemental food and hygiene products to thousands in need across San Diego County. Hand Up teen leaders supervise volunteers in the food pantry at military food distributions, deliver community educational presentation on food insecurity, raise funds and advocate to relieve hunger. Clients with a case manager are allowed to choose what food they want or need, including pet food and baby food. There is a point system wherein healthful foods cost fewer points than unhealthful ones.

The unique charm of this property includes three bedrooms, wood-paneled den, and a spacious living room with flagstone fireplace. Hardwood floors throughout. Every aspect here has been lovingly cared for, and renovated to perfection. Plus there is a private one bedroom guest suite with separate entrance. The

Then there is the pubic distribution of food from JFS. which has two military food distributions a month. Hoffman chimes in that "The cost of living is so high in San Diego as compared to someplace like Iowa. Food is an issue for many in the military. Besides that, lots of enlisted military do not have a family support system here if they are from another part of the country. We also visit St. Paul's at Sixth and Olive, where the homeless, some middle-class folks and older people line up for food." When asked if this is an ecumenical opportunity, he replied. "Of course. This year's Team Leadership participants are 19 non-Jewish and 15 Jewish." Krasner also said that his UCHS club brought in people from all religions. Synagogues donate food, especially during High Holy Days. Businesses also support the cause, and so do many other generous San Diegans. The Hand Up Teen Leadership Program helps teens improve their leadership skills, increases their leadership and resilience as positive agents for change and builds their awareness about the issues of hunger and food insecurity in San Diego. Monthly meetings focus on skills like public speaking, team building, fundraising, advocacy, goal setting and project planning. Krasner also is a Price Fellow at UCHS. "Aaron Price Fellows,” the group's website says, “prepares highly motivated and diverse San Diego public high school students to be responsible, engaged and caring members of their community." Aaron Price, son of David and Allison Price and grandson of Sol Price, died in 1989 at 15 following a yearlong battle with cancer. The Price family started the Aaron Price Fellows in his honor in 1991. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com
