St. Patrick’s Day arrives on Tuesday, March 17, and you best be ready.

Whether you truly are of Irish descent or just want to be Irish for the day, there’s plenty of activities and places to drop by to celebrate the popular holiday. While it’s now a nearly global celebration, it was first created to honor St Patrick, an Ireland patron from the fifth century.

Several local bars and pubs are orchestrating various events and specials so put on your green attire, order some corned beef and cabbage, and a pint of Guinness along with the rest of the revelers come this St. Paddy’s Day. According to Dan Lang, general manager at Hennessey’s Tavern in

La Jolla, this is the biggest day of the year for the venue by far. Some of his favorite Irish sayings include: “Eirinn go Brach,” which translated in English is, “Ireland forever”; “slainte!” which means “cheers!” or “cheers to your health”; and “ni neart go cur le cheile,” which means, “there is no strength without unity.”

And a couple of his personal favorites: “If you’re lucky enough to be Irish, you’re lucky enough!”

“May you be at the gates of heaven an hour before the devil knows your dead.”

FESTIVAL AND PARADE

Before imbibing some Irish whiskey and good ol’ Irish food fare, you might want to kick off the St. Patrick’s holiday by going to the

San Diego’s Largest St. Patrick’s Day Block Party 2020 on Saturday, March 14, from 2 p.m. to 11:55 p.m. Come celebrate shamROCK’s 26th year and paint the Gaslamp Quarter green with Irish fun across 50,000 square feet of green Astroturf, three stages, the shamROCK Shenanigans block and more. It’s located in the Gaslamp Quarter at Sixth Avenue between E and G streets.

You can also partake in the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade, dubbed the “largest parade west of the Mississippi,” on March 14, at 10:30 a.m., on Fifth Avenue at Laurel Street. Here you can join thousands of marchers and spectators celebrating the patron saint of Ireland. There will be more SEE ST. PATRICK PG. 11

San Diego voters in a rapidly shifting political landscape chose Todd Gloria as their mayoral frontrunner and picked La Jolla’s Joe LaCava to lead the Council District 1 race in the March 3 primary election.

Voter s also nar rowly turned thumbs down on Proposition C, a proposed tourist hotel tax to expand the downtown convention center and pay for road repairs and homeless services.

Candidate fields in all races were paired to the two top vote-getters, who will go head-to-head in the Nov. 3 general election.

A blue “drift,” clearly in evidence the past couple years, continued as voters cast their preferences in five City Council District races on the nine-member council. The outcome will likely maintain the present council Democrat majority.

Even the Board of Supervisors, a Republican bastion for years, will likely see at least one — and perhaps two — more Democrats joining the five-member board that currently has Nathan Fletcher as its lone Democrat.

While 100% of precincts are in, a lot of mail-in ballots have yet to be tallied. That will likely take some time, so the total results are not available at the time of this writing.

News 2 UC San Diego Health launches new drone project to transport medical supplies FRIDAY, MARCH 6, 2020

LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

By Dave Schwab | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS UC San Diego Health has launched a pilot project to test the use of aerial drones to transport medical samples, supplies and documents.

It’s all part of the growing movement toward using drones, unmanned aerial vehicles, to deliver everything from packages to food to medical supplies.

The university’s medical drone pilot program is being tested between Jacobs Medical Center, Moores Cancer Center and the Center for Advanced Laboratory Medicine, all in La Jolla. The goal is to speed delivery of services and patient care currently managed through ground transport.

James Killeen, M.D., UC San Diego clinical professor for emergency medicine, said drone technology will likely save substantial time and improve health-care services.

“I work in emergency care and we need to transport blood and other medical samples, and using car transport now through La Jolla can

be quite cumbersome with all the traffic, which isn’t going to change any time soon,” said Killeen. “So, we are running medical drones from one end of [the UC] campus to the other, to validate that the safety and integrity of the specimens can be preserved transferring them to a lab about 1 1/2 miles away.”

Noting Switzerland has successfully run medical specimen drones for three years now, Killeen added, “This pilot project will last about six months until September or October. In the meantime, we’re gathering the flight data to validate that this is a plausible alternative to ground transport.”

Timing can be critical when it comes to delivery of medical supplies, said Killeen.

“Being able to get our labs tests in faster results in quicker turnaround times for our [health] provider teams,” he said. “Hopefully, by getting people earlier, better-quality care, we can keep many of them out of the hospital and at home where they can do their normal daily activities.”

Offered Killeen as one example, “If somebody needs a blood transfusion from a specific type of donor, getting that specimen there by drone in 10 minutes, when it could take 20 to 30 minutes to drive down, this is transformational and actually optimizes patient safety and care.”

Killeen gave another medical example of rattlesnake venom. He noted hospitals carry only so much of it, and that drones could be the answer to getting lifesaving anti-venom wherever it’s needed quicker.

UC San Diego medical drone testing is part of a larger, ongoing three-year program by the city of San Diego,

which was selected by the U.S. Department of Transportation to conduct testing as part of the unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) Integration Pilot Program (IPP).

Working with several public and private sector partners, the city has been evaluating the feasibility of advanced UAS operations with numerous applications. Those include unmanned traffic management, night operations, flight over people, and flight beyond the visual line of sight.

Meanwhile, Uber is seriously exploring tapping the market for UAS with the creation of a new platform, Uber Elevate.

Even McDonald’s in San Diego has gotten involved in exploring the potential of drone delivery. McDonald’s via Uber, however, won’t be sending drones straight to people’s doors.

Rather, drones will be sent to designated “safe landing zones” where human couriers will pick up the food for transfer to residences. Uber has said it might also be possible for drones to be sent to parked Uber cars tagged with QR codes, which will then carry the goods to their final destinations.

San Diego’s role as a national leader in technology, coupled with complex airspace and mild weather that allows for year-round testing, makes it an ideal place for UAS testing.

LJPB votes against denying new special-use permit for Scripps Park

Flu Defense at Livkraft Wellness There’s no denying flu season is here.

Feel the pesky virus coming on?

There’s only one place you need to go.

Head to Livkraft Wellness, La Jolla’s one stop recovery shop, for all your recovery needs! Whether you’ve caught the flu or you’re doing everything to avoid it, Livkraft will help you recover and have you feeling your best.

What can you do to prevent the flu or lessen the severity of your symptoms?

WHOLE BODY CRYOTHERAPY Try a quick 3-minute freeze in negative degree temperatures. Whole Body Cryotherapy at Livkraft Wellness is a great immune booster, rejuvenating your body with enriched blood and fresh nutrients while decreasing inflammation. When your body is exposed to extreme cold (think up to -220 degree temps!) all the blood is rushed to your core to protect your vital organs. When you step out of the chamber, your body is flooded with a fresh supply of nutrients and re-oxygenated blood, aiding the re-

covery process, fighting inflammation and boosting your immune system.

INFRARED SAUNA After Cryo, walk down the hall straight into the infrared sauna. The Infrared heat is the best detoxifier.

Sweat out any impurities and toxins as you boost your immune system, helping your body fight off any foreseeable illnesses. Different than a traditional sauna, infrared heat results in a sweat from the inside out, allowing your body to sweat out toxins rather than just water. Make sure you’re drinking water before, during, and after your sweat session to stay properly hydrated!

IV THERAPY Speaking of hydration - for the ultimate immunity booster, visit Dr. Leslie Black, Livkraft’s Naturopathic Doctor for a nutrient IV. Dr. Leslie recommends the combination of Vitamin C, Glutathione, Zinc, and extra fluids to help prevent your body from getting sick!

In February, La Jolla Parks and Beaches, Inc. narrowly voted 8-7–1 against denying issuance of new special-use permits for Scripps Park events that are for-profit and commercialize the park.

It was the culmination of several months of vetting of the controversial issue of public versus private use of world-renowned Scripps Park. The city of San Diego is presently undergoing a master plan update for all of its parks, including Scripps.

The popular grassy park overlooking the ocean, a haven for swimmers, surfers and other recreationalists, is also a big draw for hosting signature community events. The La Jolla Half Marathon and the Concours d’Elegance classic car show in spring have been hosted there for years. The park will also host two returning 2020 events, Fourth of July fireworks and the summer concert series. Scripps Park also hosted the return last fall of the Open Water Swim for all ages, which had been on hiatus for a couple of years.

Parks board members Mary Ellen Morgan and Debbie Beacham have spearheaded a committee studying the question of continued commercialization of Scripps Park, which some argue is a misuse of the park’s primary purpose: public recreation.

“We’re willing to forego the current

moratorium on events in Scripps Park with the following requirements: Any new events should be free and have no fences or vendors,” said Morgan.

“We already have a good lineup of established events that would not be affected by this new rule.”

Noting the public “pays the taxes for watering and maintenance” of Scripps Park, Morgan added, “We’re just helpers protecting the park, and should not be a group where people come in and ask to exploit the park over and over.”

“We’re willing to take on new events as long as they’re free, open to the public and with no vendors,” added Beacham.

“Sounds good to me,” noted longtime La Jolla park planner Melinda Merryweather. “I’ve always said the park is for the people. We don’t need to pimp out the park.”

“We’ve never actually voted on a [private] parks use moratorium,” pointed out LJPB board member Dan Allen.

“The city’s handbook for special events says groups like ours are advisory in nature and cannot approve, or deny, special events planned, though they may provide important feedback,” said board member Tom Brady.

“Why discriminate against nonprofit?

What about a for-profit event to fund cystic fibrosis?”

“Scripps is a public park and what we do there should be for the public

benefit,” said board member Patrick Ahern. “But sometimes these events do cost money. We should just take on these park-use requests one at a time, make sure they have a public benefit.”

“I don’t want to paint us into a corner,” said board member Bob Evans.

“I’d rather see us approve things caseby-case.”

Beacham pointed out other California coastal communities, like Laguna Beach and Monterrey, place restrictions on private use of their public parks.

Jodi Rudick, of La Jolla Village Merchants Association, spoke against blanket restrictions on special events in the park.

“That’s a dangerous place to go,” Rudick argued. “I’m not sure what problem you’re trying to solve.”

Rudick said she researched how many private events were held in Scripps Park annually adding, “We came up with nine events over the 52 weeks of the year.”

“This is an interim thing,” answered Morgan, pointing out modified rules would only be in effect until the city finalizes its master park plan update.

C (two-thirds needed for passage) for convention center expansion, infrastructure improvements and homeless services:

Yes: 63.55% No: 36.45% The Registar of Voters said the March 3 Presidential Primary Election was more complicated than past elections because of: • A record-high number of registered voters: San Diego County has more than 1.8 million registered voters.

• More mail ballots than ever before: over 1.35 million, and many voters do not turn them in until Election Day. As of March 2, only 354,887 voters had returned their mail ballots.

• Conditional voter registration at the Registrar of Voter’s office and, new this election, at the polls and four satellite voting locations on Election Day. That meant voters who missed the traditional registration deadline could still register to vote and cast a provisional ballot.

Republican mayoral candidate Sherman discussed the primary’s outcome.

“We got in this race just 90 days ago and raised about $312,000 and we were able to overcome the huge advantages of the other candidates who have been in the race for over a year and each spent in excess of $1 million,” Sherman said. “Voters responded to our common-sense message and I’m proud of

the result. I’m also proud that my charter amendment to create an independent City Auditor passed overwhelmingly.”

Reacting to his first-place finish in the District 1 Council primary, longtime community planner LaCava said, “It was a good night. We were getting a lot of positive vibrations when we were knocking on doors and calling people.

We had some amazing support. We were prepared for any kind of outcome.”

Asked why he felt he topped the primary field, LaCava said, “I was the only candidate who had real experience.

I’ve been working for the last 20 years with residents and businesses down at city hall. That translates into my being able to hit the ground running.”

Added LaCava, “Also, my technical expertise and skill set as a civil engineer resonated with people.”

Of running for office, LaCava noted: “It’s a surreal experience to see your name on the ballot and yard signs popping up with your name on them.”

Not a career politician, LaCava said, “This (politics) was not a path I’d even thought of.”

If elected LaCava said, “I’ve been hired to do this job and I’ll give the City my best for four years. I’m not looking beyond that.”

UC San Diego Dr. Seuss birthday celebration takes year off Search Thursday Club | www.TheThursdayClub.org

910 Grand Ave Ste 203

UC San Diego, “due to conflicting activities on campus,” canceled its annual Seuss Day birthday celebration this year on March 2 at Geisel Library. On-campus labor union workers held a protest over high costs where the event was scheduled to take place.

“Our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this might cause,” said the university in a release.

"While many of the activities did not go forward as originally planned, cake was distributed as part of the commemoration of Read Across America Day,” said university spokesperson Leslie Sepuka, associate director of communications.

“The university shared information regarding the Seuss event through social media and online channels.

The team planning the media outreach for the event also reached out

to reporters, producers and bloggers directly via email.”

Countless readers have been delighted by Dr. Seuss’s unmatched ability to craft catchy rhymes that are nearly impossible to forget in his more than 60 children’s books. To help celebrate the life and work of the iconic American author, UC San Diego every year hosts its annual birthday celebration for Theodor Seuss Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss, near the Silent Tree outside Geisel Library.

This year marked the author’s 116th birthday, a celebration that coincided with national Read Across America Day. Geisel died of cancer Sept. 24, 1991, at age 87 at his home in La Jolla.

On Dec. 1, 1995, the University Library Building was renamed Geisel Library in honor of Audrey and Theodor Geisel for the generous

A man who stabbed a passenger on a Greyhound bus in the University City area was sentenced Wednesday to 17 years in prison, which includes a term for assaulting a prisoner in jail.

The injuries to both victims seemingly occurred spontaneously

by Gilbert Louis Dominguez, 36, who pleaded guilty to assault with a deadly weapon aboard a mass transit vehicle and felony assault of another inmate.

“Be cognizant of what sets you off,” said San Diego Superior Court Judge Polly Shamoon to Dominguez, who did not make a statement in court.

Dominguez stabbed Martin Hernandez, 27, on July 11, 2018 on a Greyhound bus at 12:30 p.m. while it was on Interstate 5 in University

City near the Genesee exit.

The bus driver kicked both men off the bus and Hernandez was taken to a hospital for wounds that sliced his neck, both arms, and back.

Dominguez did not know the man he stabbed, the prosecutor said.

Dominguez injured another prisoner who was gay and had animosity towards gay inmates, according to testimony in his preliminary hearing.

Deputy District Attorney Christy Bowles said the inmate had to receive seven staples in his head to close a wound and had broken teeth.

His attorney, Zaki Zehawi, said his client was on the Greyhound bus to go to Los Angeles so he could enter a treatment program.

“He was leaving everything to better himself,” said Zehawi. “He’s a smart man, a capable man.”

At a previous hearing, Domi­ nguez’s brother said he had a deeply troubled childhood after their father was murdered in 1990. He said their mother was a heroin addict and “we were doomed from the start.”

Others testified Dominguez deserved another chance, with one person saying, “he’s not your average felon.”

Dominguez received nine years for the Greyhound bus stabbing, three years for the jail attack, and Shamoon added five years for his previous conviction of carjacking.

Bowles asked for a maximum sentence of 21 years and Zehawi asked for a lesser term. An attempted murder charge was dismissed in the bus stabbing.

The prosecutor said Dominguez did not know Hernandez. An attempted murder charge was dropped after the guilty pleas.

5 MyNabes app unites La Jolla communities, helps the planet and promotes government transparency

by Victoria Davis | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

Four years ago, entrepreneur and mother Elodie Bottine moved from France to the Bay Area in San Francisco. After two years of struggling to connect her and her family with the West Coast community, Bottine came up with an idea for an app that’s all about neighbor-helping-neighbor: MyNabes.

“We all are so busy in our daily lives, rushing around to do the next thing and we do not notice the people we’re next to in coffee shops or at the grocery store,” said Bottine. “MyNabes is an app that connects people faceto-face, not just behind a screen like social media. This is more personal.”

MyNabes, launched this October by Bottine and her co-founder Raluca Perkins, another Bay Area mom, is a free app that allows users to engage with their neighbors through making requests in one of 19 categories. The categories range from teaching and coaching, giving advice and helping with groceries to scheduling kid playdates, babysitting pets, and finding buddies for sports activities. The app also discourages neighbors from offering each other money. Instead, they can choose from six “rewards,” including offering homemade cooking, going out for a drink, a simple thank you, and more.

“MyNabes isn’t about making money, it’s about meeting people,” said Bottine, who uses the app with Perkins to ask neighbors to join in their weekly Friday hikes. “When I was in France, I met this 92-year-old woman who lived in the same neighborhood for 70 years, but she didn’t have

Business Briefs 'FROZEN' TO TAKE OVER VILLAGE To celebrate Broadway San Diego’s upcoming production of Disney’s hit musical “Frozen,” the La Jolla Village will host an afternoon of free Frozen-themed activities from 12-3 p.m., March 14 near Prospect and Girard.

Activities include a happy hour, spa treatments, games, challenges, entertainment and a scavenger hunt where kids of all ages can search the Village for Elsa, Anna, and their magical friends while earning prizes along the way.

Event maps can be picked up at National Geographic Fine Art Galleries, 1205 Prospect St. Guests who dress in Frozen-themed attire will have a chance to win free tickets to the show, which runs from March 26 through April 12 at San Diego Civic Theatre, 1100 Third Ave. Space for FROZEN Day in La Jolla Village is limited.

any connections. No one was taking care of her, so I started to help her with groceries and the pharmacy and she became like my grandmother. That’s what I want this app to do for people.”

Currently, MyNabes is being used by roughly 600 people and in six San Diego neighborhoods, including La Jolla.

“I have a lot of friends in La Jolla, so I’m sure that was part of why it’s done so well there,” said Perkins, who is originally from Romania and moved to the Bay Area 10 years ago.

She added, “In Europe, everyone watches those American movies when someone moves into a new neighborhood and one of the neighbors comes with a pie and welcomes them to the area. I’ve lived in three or four different neighborhoods and that is really not a natural American thing to do. We thought that, by using the app, people would be more willing to connect to their neighbor without feeling that they have to go knock on their door and break the cultural, social barrier.”

But not only is MyNabes a source for helping communities, it’s also an app focused on aiding the planet through encouraging neighbors to carpool, share appliances and tools and donate goods they no longer need.

“Instead of buying something new, you can borrow it,” said Bottine. “Instead of trashing everything, you can donate. We too often overconsume and buy so many things we don’t really need.”

MyNabes is also lending a hand in promoting government transparency.

Bottine and Perkins just signed a contract with San Francisco’s City Hall to create a special category in the app this spring where users can engage directly

ROY’S HAWAIIAN FUSION CLOSES IN UTC After nearly two decades in business, celebrity chef Roy Yamaguchi's namesake Roy's Hawaiian Fusion restaurant in UTC at 8670 Genesee Ave. will close Feb. 29, just short of its 20th anniversary. Roy’s downtown San Diego location will remain open inside Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina.

Known for its its Pacific rim cuisine, Roy's is the creation of James Beard Award-winner and Tokyo-born celebrity chef Roy Yamaguchi. He opened the first Roy's Restaurant in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1988. There were once 31 Roy’s throughout the world, but the number has dwindled.

In 2000, Yamaguchi sold his interest in the mainland U.S. locations of Roy’s to Bloomin' Brands, parent company behind Outback Steakhouse and other eateries. Yamaguchi retained control and ownership of all Hawaii-based locations.

In 2015, Bloomin' Brands sold the mainland U.S. Roy's operations to Texas-based United Ohana for $10 million citing lack of strategic focus for development as a reason.

Roy's La Jolla opened in April 2001.

“A lot of people complain about the lack of transparency with administration, so we want to break that barrier and get these conversations going by joining the whole community together,” said Perkins. “We’re encouraged to see so many people drawn to this app.”

ROCK BOTTOM LA JOLLA CLOSES AFTER 22 YEARS Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery, which has been operating at 8980 La Jolla Village Drive across from the UC San Diego campus since 1998, has shuttered.

The brewpub was owned by CraftWorks Holdings Inc. of Nashville, Tenn., which operates several casual-dining restaurant chains including Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurants. Gordon Biersch’s Mission Valley site closed last summer.

CraftWorks Holdings operates nearly 400 restaurants, brewpubs and entertainment venues in 40 states.

The Wallstreet Journal recently reported that CraftWorks Holdings Inc. was on the verge of bankruptcy, which likely led to the closure of Rock Bottom’s La Jolla location.

Reasons recently provided to Rock Bottom La Jolla employees by management for the brewpub closure included lack of sufficient revenue generation and lease issues. The company operated a second Rock Bottom location in downtown’s Gaslamp Quarter from 1999 until 2013.

Update your home décor quickly dramatically with window treatments Most homeowners are looking for ways to upgrade their home décor quickly and dramatically.

One of the most overlooked pieces of home décor are the window treatments, which can alter your interior design more than you may realize. Take a look at these tips to see how you can update your home without compromising your style.

A Stylish Upgrade

Drapery is an easy way for any homeowner to layer onto existing window treatments bringing

new life to an old look. It can also stand on its own and adds visual warmth and texture to any room.

Drapery brings a variety of visual aspects to the space.

Energy Efficiency

Homeowners are always on the lookout for ways to save money, and the monthly gas/electric bill can be a sore spot. Start saving with window treatments that keep your home well insulated.

Drapery is great at controlling the amount of light that enters a room.

During the summer, light

entering a home will heat the interior and cause the energy costs to rise. Closing drapes during the day can reduce those costs because drapery acts as an additional layer of insulation. Drapery also acts as a barrier from the outside temperature during the cold winter months. No matter the season, drapery is the perfect way to help keep you comfortable inside, regardless of what the weather is doing outside.

you look out your window and see someone else looking back in at you. Having control of who is seeing into your home is something that you need to account for. Before you say your windows are private enough, think about them at night. Once the sun goes down, and it starts to get dark, any light on in your home makes it easier to see in. With light filtering options you can determine the level of light entering or leaving your windows, Privacy allowing you to be able to Sometimes, privacy can see out without unwanted be an afterthought until eyes peering in. Because of

the variety of fabrics available, drapery is a stylish way to keep your home to your eyes only.

3 Day Blinds has hundreds of drapery options to choose from. 3 Day Blinds also offers a wide variety of blinds, shades and shutters and all of the window treatments are 100% custom so you get the look and feel you want.

Imagine UC 2020 approved by city council

By Jemma Samala | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS Imagine UC 2020 is finally coming to fruition. The project was approved by the San Diego Unified School District Board of Education two years ago.

On Feb. 11, 2020, the joint-use agreement was unanimously approved by the city of San Diego’s City Council.

The next step will be to put the project out to open construction bid. Groundbreaking may begin as early as June

spring &

if all goes according to plan. School district and city staff have worked hard on an agreement that will serve as a template for joint-use pools in other neighborhoods of San Diego.

The fields next to Spreckels Elementary and Standley Middle School are on school district property and have been maintained by the city for decades. The city-owned land is around the recreation center, tennis courts and the current pool. The school

district and the city have had many decades of successful joint use. This will be the first time that a swimming pool has been added to a joint-use project.

The project will include an aquatic center, jogging path, stage/pavilion and a grass field for Spreckels. It will be joint use between the city and the school district, because they will be used by students during school hours and open to the community the other hours.

A rendering of the Imagine UC 2020 project.

Business 8 LJVMA hosts first Business4Breakfast of 2020 FRIDAY, MARCH 6, 2020

LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

By Dave Schwab | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS La Jolla Village Merchants Association’s first Business4Breakfast meeting of 2020, held Feb. 18, featured representatives from La Jolla Kiwanis Club and the La Jolla Concours d’Elegance offering tips on how merchants can market themselves by building on signature community events.

A list of La Jolla’s extensive annual community events compiled

by LJVMA was passed out to merchants attending this first of four Business4Breakfast meetings, which seeks to assist businesses in promoting themselves and each other. That extensive event list includes the Concours d’Elegance classic car show in Scripps Park April 17-19, and La Jolla Kiwanis Club’s Half-Marathon race between Del Mar Racetrack and the Cove on April 26.

“About 20% of the events in this town are hosted and produced by one organization that is not for-profit, the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla,” said LJVMA Executive Director Jodi Rudick. She added, “We’re challenging this community of merchants to talk to one another to get businesses to promote each other.”

Bart Calame, of La Jolla Kiwanis, then launched into a presentation detailing the La Jolla chapter NINE-TEN March 6 Ad.pdf 1 02/26/2020 of the international organization,

discussing how it fosters youth activities and concerns. “ We r a i s e $ 2 0 0 , 0 0 0 t o $250,000 a year from our annual half marathon which, for the last 38 years, has raised funding for our 501(c)3 nonprofit that gives everything back into the community for worthy causes, especially those youth-oriented,” Calame said. “Kiwanis owns that race. It’s our own brand.”

Calame noted La Jolla Kiwanis intends to expand not only its signature half-marathon event, but to acquire and build new community events as well.

“We want the [marathon] race to double,” he said, adding Kiwanis is also seeking ways to attract more runners on marathon race day, as well as possibly taking on new vendors and sponsors.

“We’re also looking to pick up other community events to anchor under the Kiwanis umbrella,” Calame said. “We’ve taken over the La Jolla Cove swim that was resurrected this year after not being held for a couple of years.

We are also bringing back the summer Concerts By The Sea series.”

Michael Dorvillier, who spearheads annual promotion of the spring Concours d’Elegance classic car show, noted the weekend event has grown and is now wide1:00:35 PM ly acknowledged to be among the

top five concours in the world. He spoke of La Jolla’s upcoming 2020 concours.

“This is our 16th year and we’re celebrating this year’s event featuring the Bugatti, arguably the most collectible car in the world,” Dorvillier said. He added efforts have been made during the last few La Jolla classic car events to attract attendees into the Village to shop and dine.

A relatively new event, known as Break in the Village, is being planned again this year by Village merchants to tie-in with, and engage, Concours d’Elegance attendees.

“Local car dealers and merchants are going to have car-oriented displays in front of their stores throughout the Village,” said Dorvillier, noting Concours d’Elegance guests are going to be able to test drive select vehicles for the first time parked out in front of Village businesses.

“One merchant last year passed out Matchbox cars to each guest,” noted Rudick, adding that $1 investment paid off dividends in terms of goodwill and connected businesses and their clients with the special car event.

Morgan Barnes, of Cove House, which hosted the Business4Breakfast event, concluded the meeting by discussing ways that the eatery has partnered with other Village businesses mutually benefiting one another by promoting each other.

A philosophy of life: All you can do is cultivate your garden Doing it Better

By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. This morning, I read the headlines of the New York Times. They wreaked havoc on my immune system, my hippocampus, my cardiovascular system, or possibly all of the above. Did I need to know that Venezuela’s hospitals are lacking medicines or that there is no food on the shelves of grocery stores?

That there is a terrible drought in Australia while fires are ravishing the country and cattle are dying from lack of water? That bad floods are inundating city streets in India?

Then I read that there are unsafe levels of contaminants in the tap water of cities throughout the U.S.; officials wait months before telling the public. This one raised my blood pressure worrying whether San Diego’s water is safe. Is there something

else we don’t know yet?

Worldwide, women are being raped, children are made to bear arms, and whole villages are destroyed. In our own streets, gays and homeless people are beaten up.

I can’t connect to the rage that must fuel such actions. Are these people all mentally ill? No, there are too many seemingly normal individuals committing such actions around the world. I experience visceral pain looking at the photos of starving children in South Yemen. There are, have been, and always will be inhumane actions everywhere. Could it be a genetic defect that plagues humans and contributes to this destructive behavior? No other animal tortures its own kind.

It is distressing to read about suicide bombers exploding themselves in crowded places or about refugees drowning on their way to a safe haven. I worry about all the children in refugee camps who have no access to schools. We are raising a whole generation of uneducated people who will have their

own questionable and uncertain impact on our world.

We are not doing enough about the Arctic permafrost melting and releasing methane that will speed up global warming. Because of climate change, we are losing animal species. If the fish disappear due to warming waters, then the animals that feed on them cannot survive. The people whose livelihood depends on fishing are also directly impacted. As we cut down and burn our forests, we decimate the habitats of countless animals.

Within my grandchildren’s lifetime, the rising oceans will eliminate most coastal cities around the world. Some of these calamities are already irreversible. Is there any good news? As I sit here depressed, I wonder whether the media does not mention it because it doesn’t sell as well.

Where do I come into all of this?

Is there a part for me to play? Can I diffuse world anger and influence everyone to be more rational? As an individual, I cannot make a

difference in the politics or economies of the world.

Many years ago, I read a book by Voltaire: “Candide.” The last line of this book has remained in my consciousness for all these years, without my knowing exactly why, but I have finally figured it out. That line is: “...we must cultivate our garden.”

I suppose it is all we can do. In other words, we will not fix all the calamities being perpetrated in our world, but we can make a difference in our own little community.

My garden is White Sands, the retirement community where I live. As I started thinking about all the gardens I tended in my past, I realized that my focus was education. Teaching is a means of cultivating one’s garden. Teachers can change the lives of their students by helping them grow their own gardens. As I think of all the hundreds of classes I had the privilege of teaching, some of my students took the ideas that I was cultivating and transplanted them into their own gardens where they

flowered to perhaps seed still other gardens.

You can make a difference in your own garden by showing more compassion, being more tolerant and less judgmental, contributing to the welfare of others, saying a kind word, making a caring gesture, putting an arm around a sad person, extending a hand, smiling at the cashier at the supermarket, carrying the groceries for the old woman or limping man, or helping to open someone’s eyes to new ideas and perspectives.

Everyone needs to identify their own gardens. For some it will be their families, for others their workplaces, or the places they volunteer or meet with people. Your garden is wherever you can make a difference by making that little piece of symbolic real estate a better place.

2020 started with the promise of new possibilities. I had fresh, new plans for my upstart business in arts education. The new year also brought with it divisive new state legislation, Assembly Bill 5, also known as AB 5. This “gig worker bill” aims to reclassify millions of independent contractors as employees and to restructure the entire workforce in California.

Self-employment is more common in California than anywhere else in America. It was inconceivable that one piece of legislation meant to protect workers could sweep across the state with the force of a wildfire, destroying most every freelance occupation in its path. In hindsight, my initial reaction to the bill was naive. I trusted that my state government would have my back. Why wouldn’t I? The collateral damage hit me last week. I lost a summer

teaching job. The sting of my disappointment prompted me to call the office of Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzales, author of the bill. They hung up on me. Click. Gonzales is known to drop F bombs at people who question her about the law.

Since when had freelancers become a menace to society? For people who are self-employed, your work is not your job, it is who you are. Mandating that people cannot design their own lives feels paralyzing and degrading. Council member Barbara Bry, candidate for mayor says, “The new economy is diverse. People don’t work in the same way they used to. They need a legal system that is responsive to our current economy.”

Understanding the legal background of AB 5 requires a proficiency in law that laypeople do not have — understanding The Dynamex Decision, interpreting

The ABC Test and The Borello Test, expertise in business law, tax codes and countless other areas beyond my scope of knowledge.

Apparently Gonzales, Todd Gloria, co-author of the bill and candidate for mayor and the other legislators, did not have the scope of knowledge to anticipate all of the disastrous consequences.

Can it be believed that they did not intend to harm the myriad of vulnerable professionals they impacted? Single mothers, disabled persons, musicians, artists, journalists, translators, court reporters, yoga instructors, photographers, and professionals from at least 160 more lines of work?

I joined a social media group known as Freelancers Against AB5. The collective has grown to more than 12,000 members from across the state. The core mission is the full repeal of AB 5. Group founder, Karen Anderson, has become a modern-day folk hero. Her recent podcast is a comprehensive report about the bill and the devastation it has caused. She’s also been archiving personal stories.

Politics make strange bedfellows.

The freelancer group is bipartisan and members must adhere to community rules of mutual respect in order to stay in the group. In this era of divisiveness and unrest, this has been invaluable and very healing.

Yes, we all can get along.

On Feb. 27, Assemblyman Kevin Kiley will initiate a floor vote on Assembly Bill 1928, an urgency measure to suspend AB 5 while corrective legislation is under consideration.

As we prepare for our upcoming tax deadlines, thousands have been forced to bid farewell to their 1099s until further notice.

Lucky San Diegan to win 100 tickets to arts, culture events

Whitney Shay to perform at LJMS open house

KENDRA SITTON | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS Ever been in the mood to see a play at Cygnet Theatre on a Friday, visit the Museum of Photographic Arts on a Saturday before heading to a performance by the San Diego Children’s Choir, then go to the San Diego Zoo on Sunday and top it all off with a workshop hosted by the San Diego Watercolor Society? That many events would normally carry a hefty price tag and blow out a budget for a month (if not more).

For a lucky winner, all these San Diego events will be free for a year thanks to the “Access2Awesome” giveaway. Nonprofit group Arts+Culture:San Diego has organized a first-of-its-kind contest to give a winner a pair of tickets to dozens of concerts, museums, and performances from more than 50 of its members. In total, the winner will have over 100 tickets.

In addition to the tickets, the grand-prize winner will be given an arts and culture concierge to assist them with year-long arts and culture access.

Arts+Culture:San Diego, through the Community Advisory Council, is raising awareness about the many arts experiences across all of San Diego. With the motto “Everywhere, Every day,” they have been doing public outreach to show the wide array of options in San Diego.

The giveaway stemmed from their advocacy.

“We wanted to really celebrate just how amazing [San Diego] is for arts and culture... Literally, we could fill up every day of the year with someone going to an arts and culture experience and they wouldn’t have to repeat stuff,” explained Peter Comiskey, the executive director of Balboa Park Cultural Partnership.

Comiskey helped the arts and cultural centers in Balboa Park form relationships with organizations across the whole region so they could collectively raise awareness about the local art scene.

“The arts and culture community in San Diego is terribly accommodating. Just the fact that we’ve been able to talk to groups as diverse as Outside the Lens [and] Media Arts Center all the way to Old Globe and La Jolla Playhouse, into convincing them that someone should just be able to come to every single show — if they want to go, we’ll get them tickets. To convince them that that’s a great idea just shows how keen everybody is to make Arts+Culture:San Diego [have] this one vibrant, exciting experience,” Comiskey added.

The grand-prize drawing will be on April 9, with 12 weekly prizes leading up to it with smaller batches of tickets.

The inaugural “Access2Awesome” giveaway is easy to enter online at artsandculturesd.org or by texting SDART to 555-888. Anyone in San Diego County is eligible to enter and there is no need to enter more than once.

After you have had your share of Gaslamp District pubs, head to Hooleys Public House with locations in El Cajon and La Mesa at 500 Grossmont Center Drive, No. 247.

Both pubs showcase “authentic decor from Ireland, including polished brass whiskey stills and old church pews that have been repurposed to create the bar.” On St. Patrick’s Day, join the team for a pint and St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. Enjoy live music at both pubs starting at 3 p.m.

Adams and Frank: Viking teammates and friends

SUDOKU PUZZLE Gary Frank bumps fists with his LJHS players.

the only class I got an A in was PE. I won fantasy football in those days, because Mike was occupied with schoolwork. He was busy building a future.”

Now a physician in general practice in Stillwater, Minnesota, outside of St. Paul, Adams, standing near the visiting dugout before the alumni game, related, “My kids [13 and 15 years old] just found my high school yearbook.

They were cracking up. That was the ‘mall hair’ era. They found photos with the shorts we wore¬¬—which hardly covered the buttocks.”

Catching up with former teammate John Romanowsky, a year ahead of Frank and Adams, batting third and hitting .320, Mike shared, “Last year, our family went on a working vacation to New Zealand. In soccer, the varsity had two practices a week and one game. We told them in the U.S. the teams practice every day. They said, ‘Why would you want to do that?’

ED PIPER / VILLAGE NEWS

“Our kids were way ahead academically. But the kids there are way happier. It kind of wrecked us [attitude-wise].”

“When Mike and I were juniors,” said Frank, “I batted leadoff. Rob Grasso [now assistant athletic director at La Jolla Country Day School] batted second, and hit about .360, and played first base. Romanowsky batted third. No one else batted above .200. We struggled.” Frank, who went on to play second base in college and two years of independent pro ball, hit over .420. Adams hurt his back and didn’t play in 11th grade, returning for a stellar senior season.

Adams walked on as a pitcher at UC Davis, had surgery, and didn’t play further.

“Gary, as a friend, is one of the most reliable people I know,” said Adams. “He’s solid. He’s steady. What you see is what you get.”

Fill in the blank cells using number 1 to 9. Each number can appear only once in each row column and 3x3 block. Use logic and process elimination to solve the puzzle.

Mike Adams, a former Cy Young Award winner for the La Jolla High pitching staff in 1990, was reminiscing at his 14th Viking Alumni Game (he comes every other year) on the beautiful, all-turf field (even in the base cutouts except for home plate).

“The Franks [Howard and Gary, the Vikings’ current head coach] had season tickets to the Padres,” the 6-foot, 5-inch former first baseman/pitcher recalled. “We sat behind the photographers’ well near the home dugout. Mr. Frank kibbitzed with the photogs, and they would give him their extra photos.”

Adams, the “Jeff” of the Mutt-andJeff pairing with the younger Frank, who’s about 5-foot-6-inches, were enrolled in the same physical education class at Muirlands, then junior high (grades seven, eight and nine until 1991), and the two became fast friends. “We started a fantasy football league,” Frank remembered. “The winner got treated at Corvette Diner, back when it was in Hillcrest. The food tasted much better then. Even the shakes.”

Earl Faison was their PE teacher.

“He was an all-star defensive lineman for the Chargers,” recounted Adams.

“I think it was about the only class we had together,” laughed Gary Frank, relishing the memories. “In high school, we especially found out that Mike was a lot smarter. About

By Ed Piper | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS It was a slice of heaven. In late winter, the sun was out—though La Jolla High head coach Gary Frank wore a sweatshirt to hit infield—the birds were chirping, and the ping of the aluminum bat meant baseball, with all its hope, had finally returned.

Devin Garcia, after a successful season with the Viking football team in the fall, was cracking people up with a funny accent from first base: “You want sunthing? It not gonna work.” Jake Klimkiewicz, a third-year starter in the infield, and still only a junior with a live bat, was lying about his weight after a reporter asked Garcia his football vs. baseball weight: “I weigh 220, too,” said the slim “Klim.” It just didn’t hold water.

And the loquacious Johnny Meyerott was greeting everyone as he

usually does, chattering away in his trademark friendly matter. “Back from his broken hand, back again in the outfield,” Frank noted about Meyerott in a pre-practice conversation, holding his glee at this year’s prospects barely in check as he quoted statistics: “We returned 176 of 185 innings pitched from last year.

Eighty-five percent of our at-bats are returning.”

What that means, in hard facts, is that the 2020 edition of the Vikings baseball squad, Frank’s 17th to stand atop the program’s history as the longest-tenured head coach, is led by 11 seniors. All but one position starter returned (Blaise Gimber, who graduated, in centerfield will be replaced by sophomore Connor Hobbs.)

“In the four years I’ve been here, it’s the most energized group I’ve seen,” said Koa Scott, who had a 1.88 earned run average last year

on a squad that went 14-13 overall, 5-7 in league. Said outfielder/ pitcher Devin Brown, another one of the seniors, “We’re definitely going to go harder this year.”

La Jolla’s offense, from the skipper’s view, looks like this: “Noah Brown, shortstop, is at the top of the lineup. Luke Brunette, at first base, follows. Gavin Graff will be somewhere in the middle of the lineup. Jake is coming off a year in which he hit almost .300. Koa has a lot of pop in his bat. Coop (McNally) is a four-year starter.” He rattles off the names of Devin Brown, Meyerott, and outfielder Calvin Hyytinen, as well as Hobbs, who “led the JV’s in batting last year.”

Noah Brown hit .338 last year.

Brunette, a lefty first baseman who bats right, had 12 RBIs for third on the team. Graff, a tall right-hander on the mound, hit .355 with 16 RBIs to lead the Vikings.

Meyerott, trying to keep up with Hyytinen’s killer abdominal workout in the outfield, with leg lifters, crunches, and finally a plank following in rapid succession, offered, after he caught his breath, “With 21 players on the team, there’s a lot of competition. But it’s a friendly competition. You know if you don’t work hard, you’re going to lose your spot.”

UC resident named city of San Diego's poet laureate

By Jemma Samala | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS When Ron Salisbury walked through my door and we began to talk about his role as the city of San Diego’s inaugural poet laureate, I realized he embodied what I thought a “professional” poet would be – soft-spoken, calm, excellent with words, and comfortable with himself.

“San Diegans have a special story to tell and I can think of no one better than long-time resident Ron Salisbury to tell it,” said Mayor Kevin L. Faulconer. “With the creation of this new city tradition, I encourage all San Diegans to explore the creativity and culture of our great city and I look forward to seeing our community’s love for the literary arts continue to grow.”

Salisbury’s own life is an ongoing inspirational poem.

His lifelong relationship with poetry began when he was in seventh grade, living in Orrington, Maine, outside of Bangor. His teacher sent the students home with copies of Robert Frost poems and was told to write a poem. His mother was known as the neighborhood rhymer, and after a few minutes of her explaining poetry to him, Salisbury said, “a switch went on and I told my mom I got this, and since then the only thing I’ve ever really wanted to do was to be a poet.” And the attraction and inspiration of those initial Frost poems showed him that poetry can be a “magical keyhole to the inside of a person.”

How did Salisbury eventually make a living as a poet? First, he moved to New York to become an actor. Later, he worked as a pit boss in Las Vegas. Then he spent time as a banker, and traveled often for his role in international real estate.

Eventually, he owned seven coffee shops, where all the money was made by 11 a.m. During those years, Salisbury also pursued degrees at a

later age than most, his most recent, a Master of Fine Arts in Poetry obtained at the age of 69 from San Diego State University. He emphasizes that he obtained “education because I wanted it, not necessary because I needed it.”

Those life experiences come into play when writing his poetry, with his inspiration being his age. He mentioned that it is said that you write one poem all your life, and what changes is your perspective. Salisbury shares those perspectives freely with a weekly poem he sends out every Monday, to those who sign up on his website – ronsalisbury.com.

Salisbury’s new role as San Diego’s poet laureate provides him not only a larger venue to share his poetry, but also to expose the beauty of poetry itself. In his role, Salisbury becomes an ambassador in and outside of San Diego, advocating for poetry, spoken word and the literary arts. Salisbury was chosen through a competitive process, with criteria that included artistic excellence, education and training as a literary artist, literary recognition, engagement in past projects that involve poetry, and other experiences related to poetry. During his two-year term as poet laureate, the goal will be to participate in a number of public events, and to lead a community-oriented poetry project next year.

Since the appointment is very recent, he is still formulating what the project will be and is open to all ideas. And he points out that he will be promoting all types of poetry, including slam, spoken word, computer poetry…yes, apparently there is a program that can generate poetry based on algorithms trained to look at how poetry is formed (google poetry bot).

Community celebrates postal worker retiring after 50 years

By Jemma Samala | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS The lines went outside the University City Post Office doors into the parking lot for hours as the community said their farewells to retiring postal worker Elizabeth “Beth” West on Saturday, Feb. 29. West is retiring after 50 years working as a U.S. postal worker, 35 of the past years working at the University City branch, her last working day was Feb. 28. Before that, West worked at the Clairemont branch, and her former Clairemont supervisor, Conrad von Metzke, was one of the many that made sure to stop by.

Christine Carmichael, district marketing manager for the U.S. Post Office, said that “50 years is a long time, and for Beth to stay at the same location for 35 years is astounding! It’s a very rare thing, and clearly the customers love her.

For the customers to put this on for Beth, that’s astounding, and this crowd — I’ve never seen anything like this.” Carmichael and Mayra Elena, former UC branch postal worker and now in the marketing department, presented West with a framed collection of her favorite “Love” stamp. The marketing department had to do an all-hands search for the 1982 stamps, but they knew the stamp was special to West.

West was clearly emotional after receiving a framed proclamation from Cesar Campo, representative for Congressman Scott Peters.

Peters had been instrumental in helping her family resolve a past veteran’s benefit issue, and West has always been grateful for that assistance.

Council member Barbara Bry was also in attendance

and presented West with a special commendation, stating that she is an “exemplary public servant, and the fact that all these people are here is a tribute to your 50 years of service and the 35 years in University City.” West, speaking afterward, was in tears as she attributed it all back to the “wonderful community of University City. I’ve had 35 years of pure joy.”

West was clearly touched by the overwhelming love and support by the community, where every guest wanted to give their hugs and share memories.

Amongst the many stories shared, included those of: Stephanie Krasner who went into labor at West’s counter in November 1995 and feels West has been part of her family since its beginning; the Mann family and West’s help with their package mailers for their work organizing Pacific Coast Trail hikers, averaging 2,000 packages a year; and those with former co-workers Kathy Latham and Susan Davidson, who together were the “angels” to many post office clients.

Michele Hagstrom, one of the event organizers, stated it simply that West “represented what the UC community is all about. She treated each of her customers with grace and style.

She saw me pregnant with my kids and watched them grow up and has continued to ask about them. She shines so bright.”

West has been a longtime fixture in the community, as she attended Whittier Elementary, Marston Middle, and Clairemont High Schools – before the schools in University City were built. Now she plans to spend more time with family and friends.

As UC bids farewell, Iris Clauss, who set up a GoFundMe fundraiser for West and helped organize the event, summed up why the community supports West so much, saying that, “Beth has worked at our post office since I was a little girl. I don’t ever remember Beth not working at the post office! Every time I go to the post office, she recognizes me, asks me how I’m doing. She is so nice, and not just to me, I can tell she’s nice to everyone.”

Nibbles and Sips: Chef Brian Malarkey opens new restaurant in Torrey Pines

By Frank Sabatini Jr. | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS An impressively designed breakfast-lunch restaurant that combines Baja and Asian influences has opened in the Torrey Pines area.

Named Wood Yu, it is one of the latest ventures involving celebrity chef Brian Malarkey of Puffer Malarkey Collective.

The morning menu reveals standard-American items like acai bowls and breakfast wraps. The lunch list, however, delves into such dishes as guacamole with shoyu; al pastor banh mi sandwiches; shaking beef with salsa verde; and more. Beer, wine and cocktails are also available.

The indoor-outdoor space previously served partly as an office lobby. It now incorporates lush greenery, drop lighting, and a large Asian-landscape mural. 10578 Science Center Drive, 858-812-5558, woodyu.com.

SMALLGOODS CHEESE OPENS SHOP IN LJ Cheese mongers Jenny and Mike Eastwood have made the leap from San Diego’s farmers market scene to a new retail outlet in La Jolla. Their venture, Smallgoods Cheese Shop & Cafe, upholds a tradition of selling select cheeses and cured meats from American producers, just as they still do at the weekend farmers markets in La Jolla, Little Italy and Hillcrest.

Wood Yu is one of the latest ventures of celebrity chef Brian Malarkey.

“I can extend my cheese selection at the cafe much more than I can at the farmers markets,” said Jenny.

“We have about 20 different kinds here opposed to our market selection of about six cheeses.”

The cafe component also allows for coffee drinks as well as breakfast and lunch dishes using ingredients sourced from the outdoor markets.

CATANIA CELEBRATES FIFTH ANNIVERSARY Fresh off earning a listing in the 2019 Michelin Guide, the coastal Italian-style eatery in La Jolla known as Catania, will celebrate its fifth anniversary on March 17. In doing so, it will present a multi-course family-style meal that day for $49 per person. In

addition, the restaurant is offering a “best hits” pasta tasting for $35, which includes five different pastas.

SAFI MEDITERRANEAN GRILL TO OPEN A taste of the Middle East awaits in Pacific Beach at the new Safi Mediterranean Grill. The fastcasual eatery opened recently to an affordable menu of sprightly salads, house-made hummus, samosas, gyros, shawarma, and more. Salads, pasta and pizzas also comprise the menu.

Though quaint in size, the establishment stands out with its retro-style booths, light wall colors and bright-red trim. In-house delivery service is available. 4614 Mission Blvd.

NEW OWNERSHIP TAKES OVER PB’S TACO SURF With an impending change of ownership coming sometime in March at Taco Surf Pacific Beach, existing proprietor Cindy McLarty tells us the buyers, Matt and Melanie Gilmore, have committed to keeping everything intact once escrow is completed.

“They want customers who come in to not even notice we’ve changed hands,” said McLarty while pointing out there’s talk about adding some vegan items to the menu. “But that’s it,” she emphasized. “The food and interior will remain exactly the same.”

NEW FOOD AND COCKTAIL MENUS AT THE LOMA CLUB The new owners of The Loma Club at Liberty Station nine-hole golf course recently debuted new food and cocktail menus, which

they describe as “classic country club fare but with upscale twists.”

New dishes include French toast sticks stuffed with strawberry jam and cream cheese; chickpea nachos with Buffalo-style sauce; cheesesteak potato skins; and more. Salads, burgers and club sandwiches are also available.

Visitors can end their visit on a sweet note with an order of powdered sugar donut holes named “bucket of balls.”

The revised cocktail list includes “On the Green,” which combines You & Yours dry gin with elderflower, cucumber and lime. There’s also a “Jungle Birdie” made with pineapple rum and Campari. 2960 Truxtun Road, 619-222-4653, thelomaclub.com.

WILL NEWPORT PIZZA RETURN TO OB? In the wake of Ocean Beach’s Newport Pizza and Alehouse (5050 Newport Ave.), which closed about a month ago after operating for 36 years, the establishment’s pizza ovens have landed in a back area of OB Brewery at 5041 Newport Ave. Both businesses are owned by Mike Tajran, who wasn’t available to answer whether he will indeed resume his pizza operation at the nearby brew house. But a former employee from Newport Pizza who requested anonymity, said there’s also a possibility Tajran will look for a new pizzeria location. Stand by for updates.
