Lawrence Family JCC endures numerous bomb threats Following a Feb. 20 bomb threat, which caused La Jolla's Jewish Community Center to be closed and evacuated, officials are struggling to explain why — and what can be done about it.

It was the third similar threat this year at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center at 4126 Executive Drive.

A 31-year-old man, Juan Thompson, was subsequently arrested March 3 in St. Louis.

Thompson has allegedly been linked with at least eight bogus bomb threats made against Jewish Community Centers across the nation, including La Jolla's, as part of a campaign to harass a former girlfriend.

In a press release attributed to executive director Michael Cohen, the JCC stated that, at 4:30 p.m. on President's Day, “We received a bomb threat, similar to ones we received in the past and other JCCs have received throughout the country... Law enforcement quickly determined it to be a non-credible hoax. We followed our practiced emergency procedures, and safely evacuated our facility. By 6:20 p.m., San Diego Police had concluded its on site review and the JCC fully reopened to the community by 6:30 p.m.”

Concerning such hate crimes, JCC commented, “It is the very nature of who we are, and the

One jewel, in particular, a jade pendant worn on a king’s chest during key religious ceremonies, was first unearthed in 2015. It is now housed at the Central Bank of Belize, along with other national treasures. Braswell and his team have deduced the significance of the rare stone, saying that ‘It literally speaks to us. The story it tells is a short but important one.’

To say that UCSD archaeologist Geoffrey Braswell was surprised to discover a precious jewel in Nim Li Punit in southern Belize is something of an understatement.

“It was like finding the Hope Diamond in Peoria instead of New York,” said Braswell, who led the dig that uncovered a large piece of carved jade once belonging to an ancient Maya king. “We would expect something like it in one of the big cities of the Maya world.

Instead, here it was, far from the center,” he said.

The jewel, a jade pendant worn on a king’s chest during key religious ceremonies, was first unearthed in 2015. It is now housed at the Central Bank of Belize, along with other national treasures. Braswell recently published a paper in the Cambridge University Journal Ancient Mesoamerica detailing the jewel’s significance. A second paper, in the Journal of Field Archaeology, describes the excavations.

The pendant is remarkable for being the second largest Maya jade found in Belize to date, said Braswell, a professor in the Department of Anthropology at UCSD. The pendant measures 7.4 inches wide, 4.1 inches high and just 0.3 inches thick. Sawing it into this thin, flat form with string, fat and jade dust would have been a technical feat. But what makes the pendant even more remarkable, Braswell said, is that it’s the only one known to be inscribed with a historical text. Carved into the pendant’s back are 30 hieroglyphs about its first owner.

“It literally speaks to us,” Braswell said. “The story it tells is a short but important one.” He believes it may even change what we know about the Maya.

Also, importantly, the pendant was “not torn out of history by looters,” said Braswell. “To find it on a legal expedition, in context, gives us information about the site and the jewel that we couldn’t have otherwise had or maybe even

imagined.”

Where the jewel was found Nim Li Punit is a small site in the Toledo District of Belize. It sits on a ridge in the Maya Mountains, near the contemporary village of Indian Creek. Eight different types of parrot fly overhead. It rains nine months of the year.

On the southeastern edge of the ancient Maya zone (more than 250 miles south of Chichen Itza in Mexico, where similar but smaller breast pieces have been found), Nim Li Punit is estimated to have been inhabited between A.D. 150 and 850. The site’s name means “big hat.” It was dubbed that, after its rediscovery in 1976, for the elaborate headdress sported by one of its stone figures. Its ancient name might be Wakam or Kawam, but this is not certain.

Braswell, UCSD graduate students Maya Azarova and Mario Borrero, along with a crew of local people, were excavating a palace built around the year 400 when they found a collapsed, but intact, tomb. Inside the tomb, which dates to about A.D. 800, were 25 pottery vessels, a large stone that had been flaked into the shape of a deity and the precious jade pectoral. Except for a couple of teeth, there were no human remains.

What was it doing there?

The pendant is in the shape of a T. Its front is carved with a T also.

This is the Mayan glyph “ik’,” which stands for “wind and breath.” It was buried, Braswell said, in a curious, T-shaped platform. And one of the pots discovered with it, a vessel with a beaked face, probably depicts a Maya god of wind.

Wind was seen as vital by the Maya. It brought annual monsoon rains that made the crops grow.

And Maya kings, as divine rulers responsible for the weather, performed rituals according to their sacred calendar, burning and scattering incense to bring on the wind and life-giving rains. According to the inscription on its back, Braswell said, the pendant was first used in A.D. 672 in just such

a ritual.

Two relief sculptures on large rock slabs at Nim Li Punit also corroborate that use. In both sculptures, a king is shown wearing the T-shaped pendant while scattering incense, in A.D. 721 and 731, some 50 and 60 years after the pendant was first worn.

By the year 800, the pendant was buried, not with its human owner, it seems, but just with other objects. Why? The pendant wasn’t a bauble, Braswell said, “it had immense power and magic.”

Could it have been buried as a dedication to the wind god? That’s Braswell’s educated hunch.

Maya kingdoms were collapsing throughout Belize and Guatemala around A.D. 800, Braswell said.

Population levels plummeted. Within a generation of the construction of the tomb, Nim Li Punit itself was abandoned.

“A recent theory is that climate change caused droughts that led to the widespread failure of agriculture and the collapse of Maya civilization,” Braswell said. “The dedication of this tomb at that time of crisis to the wind god who brings the annual rains lends support to this theory, and should remind us all about the danger of climate change.”

Still and again: What was it doing there?

The inscription on the back of the pendant is perhaps the most intriguing thing about it, Braswell said. The text is still being analyzed

by Braswell’s coauthor on the Ancient Mesoamerica paper, Christian Prager of the University of Bonn. And Mayan script itself is not yet fully deciphered or agreed upon.

But Prager and Braswell’s interpretation of the text so far is this: The jewel was made for the king Janaab’ Ohl K’inich. In addition to noting the pendant’s first use in A.D. 672 for an incense-scattering ceremony, the hieroglyphs

describe the king’s parentage. His mother, the text implies, was from Cahal Pech, a distant site in western Belize. The king’s father died before aged 20 and may have come from somewhere in Guatemala.

It also describes the accession rites of the king in A.D. 647, Braswell said, and ends with a passage that possibly links the king to the powerful and immense Maya city of Caracol, located in modernday Belize.

“It tells a political story far from Nim Li Punit,” Braswell said. He notes that Cahal Pech, the mother’s birthplace, for example, is 60 miles away. That’s a five-hour bus ride today, and back then would have been many days’ walk, through rainforest and across mountains. How did the pendant come to this outpost?

While it’s possible it had been stolen from an important place and whisked away to the provinces, Braswell doesn’t think so. He believes the pendant is telling us about the arrival of royalty at Nim Li Punit, the founding of a new dynasty. The writing on the pendant is not particularly old by Maya standards, but it’s the oldest found at Nim Li Punit so far, Braswell said.

It’s also only after the pendant’s arrival that other hieroglyphs and

images of royalty begin to show up on the site’s stelae, or sculptured stone slabs.

It could be that king Janaab’ Ohl K’inich himself moved to Nim Li Punit, Braswell said. Or it could be that a great Maya state was trying to ally with the provinces, expand its power or curry favor by presenting a local king with the jewel.

Either way, Braswell believes, the writing on the pendant indicates ties that had been previously unknown.

“We didn’t think we’d find royal, political connections to the north and the west of Nim Li Punit,” said Braswell, who has been excavating in Belize since 2001 and at Nim Li Punit since 2010. “We thought if there were any at all that they’d be to the south and east.”

Even if you ignore the writing and its apparent royal provenance, the jade stone itself is from the mountains of Guatemala, southwest of Belize. There are few earlier indications of trade in that direction either, Braswell said.

We may never know exactly why the pendant came to Nim Li Punit or why it was buried as it was, but Braswell’s project to understand the site continues. He plans to return this spring. This time, he also wants to see if he might discover a tie to the Caribbean Sea. After all, that’s a mere 12 miles downriver, a fourhour trip by canoe.

president and CEO of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club and Craig Favel, president and CEO of the Breeders’ Cup, addressing the audience as well, focusing on the massive overhaul of the already-pristine grounds as well as a shared excitement for holding the event in San Diego this year.

According to a recent press release, Breeders’ Cup and Del Mar racetrack are investing approximately $4.5 million to “create premium seating options and enhance the on-site experience for fans and participants.”

Similarly to what was seen at this year’s Farmers Insurance Open, there seems to be a shift toward creating spaces in which spectators can socialize, enjoy the races, converse, and indulge in some amazing food and beverages. Although the Del Mar racetrack is arguably one of the most socially-geared locations in the city, the upgrades will prove the location that much more desirable. Several areas are to undergo construction, for even

the center of the track will be converted into a “The Beach,” which will be a casual, sanded area. This location will provide enough room for up to 250 people, with seating, umbrellas, a video screen and a private bar.

“A total of 2,700 new, premium hospitality seating options will be added to Del Mar, including two temporary trackside luxury chalets and temporary box seats,” the press release said.

“The temporary structures will be situated in newly-created ‘Chalet Village’ at the west end of the Stretch Run and will accommodate 1,800 guests in two double-decker structures, each with its own catering, wagering and restroom services.

Additionally, 900 box seats are being added to the Clubhouse and Stretch Run sides of the facility.”

Consisting of 13 Grade I races, with purses and awards tallying up at more than $28 million, this event touts the largest purse ever at the Del Mar track. Typically alternating venues between Santa Anita, located in Los Angeles, and Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky. The Breeders’ Cup is estimated to generate a $75 million influx in the area over the week-

end. Daily attendance will be capped at 37,000, with individual plans of attack encouraged to deal with congestion typical of notable race days.

Speakers stressed the importance of having parking planned-out well before the day of the event, as on-site parking is limited to those with special credentials. The Breeders’ Cup will offer complimentary shuttle service to the track from three to four off site parking areas. Designated taxi and Uber drop-off and pick-up locations will also be provided.

Single-day ticket cost ranges from $35 to $375 on Friday and $50 to $500 on Saturday. Twoday packages will costs between $85 to $1,875. All tickets will be sold in advance of the event, for there will be no walk up sales available, as there typically are at most given races at Del Mar. Purchase tickets at www.BreedersCup.com/Tickets or by calling the ticketing office at 877-849-4287. A special ticket pre-sale was conducted in the days prior to the March 6 on-sale date.

Tammy Gillies, ADL's regional director for San Diego, noted that Thompson, or any other possible suspects in the series of hoax email threats to JCC's nationwide, was acting “to impart a sense of fear and terror in the community.”

“It is our job to help the com-

munity come together, and hopefully, overcome that fear,” was Gillies' response. “We as a Jewish community, and a lot of other minority communities, may be targets. We must stand together and continue to live our lives the way we always have. We cannot back down.”

She added the silver lining in the series of nationwide bomb threats is that it's allowed Jewish and other ethnic communities to “really work together to help each other. It's a matter of standing up for one another and being strong. Particularly in San Diego, where we have such an amaz-

ing, very diverse community.

Standing together is going to make us stronger.”

While fighting anti-Semitism, Gillies noted the ADL also “stands against hate. Fighting hatred really is our mission. And we do that in a lot of ways, through education, advocacy, working with law enforcement.

What we try to do is be a supporter, and a leader, in the community in fighting hate.”

Gillies added the investigation into the national string of JCC bomb threats “is not over.”

‘We’ll Always Have Casablanca’ at Warwick’s

BY LUCIA VITI “Casablanca” is an iconic American film. Celebrating 75 years of its premier, film critic Noah Isenberg will present his book “We’ll Always Have Casablanca, The Life, Legend, and Afterlife of Hollywood’s Most Beloved Movie” at Warwick’s on Friday, March 10 at 7:30 p.m.

Professor Isenberg, director of screen studies at New York’s New School, will thrill readers with details of the filming of “Casablanca,” along with historical data and critic reviews that explain why the film remains such a beloved classic.

Released in 1942, just two weeks after the North African city surrendered to Gen. Patton, “Casablanca” is infamous for its screenplay, soundtrack, and its allstar cast. The likes of Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid. Claude Reins, Conrad Veidt, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre, and Dooley Wilson graced the black-and-white cinematic masterpiece.

Directed by Michael Curtiz against the backdrop of World War II, the story depicts an American expatriate forced to choose between the woman he loves and assisting her Czech-leader husband escape Casablanca to fight the Nazis. “Casablanca” was noted in the New York Times as a “picture that makes the spine tingle and the heart take leap.” The Academy Award-winning film (for best picture, best director and best screenplay) became so entrenched in film history that Umberto Eco quoted, “Casablanca is not one movie; it is movies.”

Isenberg, a popular film historian, writes of the myths and realities of the film’s production through his extensive research and interviews with filmmakers, critics and family members of the cast and crew. Isenberg also describes the role Hitler’s European refugees portrayed in Casablanca. Isenberg explains why the movie remains a timeless, revered masterwork lodged into the psyche of film buffs.

Isenberg writes, “Like all movies,

‘Casablanca’ is not without its imperfections. There are undeniably corny lines and a healthy dose of Hollywood ‘hokum’ in the parlance of the day. But its spectacular achievement, whether it’s the result of the ‘genius of the system‘as the great French critic André Bazin once termed it, or the good fortune of historical timing, prodigious talent and a host of factors that often elude classification remains indisputable.”

“We’ll Always Have Casablanca: The Life, Legend, and Afterlife of Hollywood’s Most Beloved Movie” is a wonderful journey that reminds global audiences of how cinema can inspire generations to perform noble deeds even when surrounded by evil.

La Jolla Village News caught up with Isenberg to briefly answer questions about his upcoming presentation.

Lucia Viti (LV) What inspired you to write “We’ll Always Have Casablanca, The Life, Legend, and Afterlife of Hollywood’s Most Beloved Movie?”

Noah Isenberg (NI) A conversation with film critic Molly Haskell hatched the idea for “We’ll Always Have Casablanca.” Molly had just published her book, “Frankly, My Dear” on “Gone With the Wind” and suggested that a reappraisal of “Casablanca” would be a good match for me. I published an op-ed piece on the enduring significance of “Casablanca” in the Wall Street Journal over Thanksgiving weekend 2012. The response was overwhelmingly positive. I crafted a book proposal within the year and wrote the book while on sabbatical with the support of an NEH Public Scholar Grant.

(LV) What is your favorite offcamera vignette?

(NI) I love the Peter Lorre pranks. During production, he ran around with a water-filled eyedropper to put out Michael Curtiz’s cigarettes (the director). Lorre also convinced the sound department at Warner’s to wire Curtiz’s trailer so that they could project groans through set speakers from his

notorious afternoon trysts with young actresses.

(LV) What is your favorite onscreen vignette?

(NI) A brief conversation between Herr Leuchtag (Ludwig Stössel) and Frau Leuchtag (Ilka Grürning) as they rehearse their broken English for Carl the waiter (S.Z. Sakall). It’s “one of the most beautiful pieces of dialogue in the history of film,” as the late German filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder once observed – with a wink and a nudge!

(LV) What did you discover that truly surprised you?

(NI) A review from the Amsterdam News, one of the few blackowned newspapers in New York City, which praised Dooley Wilson’s performance as Sam. They wrote – “No picture has given as much sympathetic treatment and prominence to a Negro character as occurs in this story of war intrigues in North Africa.”

(2016) Paralympian gold medalist swimmer, Roy Perkins, was born without hands or feet. Despite his physical disability, Perkins’ attitude, as well as his future, has always remained bright. The Bishop’s School alumnus and Del Mar resident spoke to his alma mater’s student body and faculty on Feb. 27.

Currently, he attends Stanford, where he will resume his studies and training upon his return. This engagement was a homecoming of sorts, however, for Perkins had already graduated prior to competing in the Paralympics.

“When I first arrived at this campus in middle school, it had a bit of a medieval feel to it,” Perkins joked of the renovations during his time.

“Some of the earliest memories I have of this school are that of acceptance, which was something that was taught to me from a young age by my parents.

son Fleming, who was head of the middle school at the time” he said.

“It’s imaginable that the school had communicated with my parents regarding my needs. Students here treated me as though I were any other student and, although I’d sometimes catch people with that ‘deer in the headlights’ look, I never had trouble from anyone. Actually, I may have avoided some of the usual drama that occurs during the awkward middle school/high school years.

“Do I regret missing out on any of the drama associated with being a teenager? Not at all,” he continues lightheartedly, receiving a roar of laughter once again from the crowd. “I can reassure you, there are no ‘cool’ teenagers.”

Perkins’ sense of humor and sense of delivery are well-honed, for in the rare down time he has away from training, he loves standup comedy.

Perkins learned to swim at the age of 12, for what he said was “my parents wanted me to not die in the ocean.” Seemingly taking naturally to the water, he found it was a great form of exercise.

The Paralympics began in 1948, as a way for injured British veterans to compete. While the first formal events took place in 1963, with 400 athletes from 23 countries partici-

pating, decades following would see the overall expansion of the competition as well as a closer association with Olympics.

Once he made the U.S. national team in 2005, there was no stopping Perkins.

The Bishop alumnus earned 11 medals in total, including a gold and a bronze medal at the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing, two silver and two bronze medals at the 2012 Paralympics in London and one gold and one silver medal at the 2016 Paralympics in Rio. At the end of his inspiring presentation, Perkins was given “The Bishop’s Medal” from the head of school, Aimeclaire Rocheas, as well as a standing ovation. Bishop’s School students then approached

the podium with precise questions, all thanking Perkins for providing such a genuine treat early on in their school day.

A student inquired how much training is required for the Paralympics.

“We train as hard, if not harder than most able-bodied athletes,” said Perkins. “I practice five to six days a week, as well as participate in extensive weight and dry-land training.”

When asked about his favorite part of being a Paralympian, Perkins says “Standing in front of the large crowds in another coun-

try.”

Perkins will return to Stanford and begin his training for the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo.

Tyler Roach hired as new LJHS head football coach

BY ED PIPER, JR. Tyler Roach, who served as offensive coordinator for La Jolla High’s football team from 2013 to 2015, has been hired as the Vikings’ new head coach, according to athletic director Paula Conway.

“I’m fired up and ready to hit the ground running,” said Roach, contacted at a coaching clinic in Mission Valley. “I think the future is bright. We have a good crop of seniors coming up. I’m excited to work with Kenny Hayden, our quarterback. I just met with him today on campus. He’s excited, too.”

Under Roach, La Jolla’s offense set school and CIF San Diego Section records.

In 2014, Viking quarterback Collin Rugg set a CIF record for touchdowns with 47.

Rugg’s favorite targets in the spread, nohuddle offense were receivers Carlton O’Neal and Brandon Bonham.

Initial reaction to Roach’s hire from Viking players was positive. Buster Hoy, a 5-foot-9-inch, 150-pound junior, absolutely gushed over the announcement.

“I’m stoked because I thought he should have been the head coach last

year,” said Hoy, who plans to be a running back in Roach’s new offense. “He knows a good offense. He’s been around football. Everyone loves him.”

As for what Roach did for him personally, Hoy said, “He coached me as a running back. When I was a sophomore, he got me in on the varsity, while I was also playing on the junior varsity. He put me in the game (to my surprise).”

The future senior summed up, “He’s happy, enthusiastic about winning. He’s not like, ‘You have to do this, etc.’ He’s like, ‘Let’s go win.’”

Commented Dr. Chuck Podhorsky, in his fourth year as principal at La Jolla High, “We’re happy to have a coach like Tyler Roach. We’re happy to have the program up and running. We’re sad to see Matt Morrison go. He was great, but we’re very happy to have Tyler. He had a lot of community support coming in.”

Morrison, who coached one year at La Jolla High, accepted the head football coaching position at Francis Parker School, his alma mater, and a full-time teaching position, according to Conway.

Morrison, who played under his father,

John, as head coach, helped lead the Lancers to a CIF title and was named AllCIF at quarterback.

Reaction from other Viking football players to Roach’s selection was similarly positive, though the graduating seniors won’t be able to play under the new coach.

Said senior Ross Martin, who played for Roach as a junior, “I love coach Roach.

He will tighten up the offense and bump up the work ethic. We’ve been good on defense the last couple of years, but he’ll also bring an emphasis to the offensive side.”

Rugg, having transferred back locally after spending one year at college in Missouri, responded, “Coach Roach is one of the best coaches I have ever had. He has taught me so much about football and many life lessons. La Jolla High School really lucked out. He demands excellence from the team and will put all his time and effort into the players. La Jolla High football has a promising future.”

Bishop’s track: A sprint in time for Phillip Lucas’ young team

BY ED PIPER, JR. Phillip Lucas, an assistant track coach at Bishop’s, says he has four “promising-looking sprinters” on the Knights squad this spring, sophomore Hannah Young and three boys.

“Hannah was a competitive gymnast and I’m seeing the dedication and will she has in this sport,” says Lucas, who at age 36 is still sprinting competitively. “She doesn’t fall on the track. Some runners, after the conclusion of the race, fall down from the lactic acid in their legs and roll on the ground (from the pain). She doesn’t give in. Even with the boys, you see Hannah rival them.”

Lucas is expressive with his words and his body movements in his energy for the sport. He crouched alongside his sophomore sprinter as he coached her on her starts before an early-season tri-meet at La Jolla High against the Vikings and Country Day or “the Battle of La Jolla.”

“He’s already taught me so much, and I’ve only been working with him so far this spring a short time,” gushed Young about her sprints coach.

The trio of male sprinters, making up part of the shorter-distance unit of head coach Rodney Jones’ track and field squad, include freshman Clarence Freeman, junior Mozes Mooney, and freshman Amaan Banks.

“We had (Freeman) in middle school,” says Lucas. “I see the transition each year. He takes the role of a sophomore or junior (though he’s only a freshman).

“Clarence does well in all the drills.

He doesn’t cower. He has perseverance. I would like that to rub off on all our athletes.”

Mooney, a star wide receiver and cornerback on the Bishop’s CIF San Diego Section and Southern California Regional champion football team last fall, is going out for track for the first time in his junior year. “Oh, my,” says Lucas. “His talent is uncapped.

It’s unlimited. He has so much natural ability. If I had his speed as a youth…

“He’s very quiet and mild-mannered. He’s very focused. Today in the 4x100 relay (in the tri-meet against Country Day and La Jolla High) he didn’t tense up.”

Says Jones, the fifth-year head coach, “The drive, the determination that he has, I’m sure he will be successful.”

Coach David Silva is also a sprints coach for the Knights. Jones, Lucas, and he all work together with a nonprofit called San Diego Blessed, running for children and teens ages 4 to 18. These are coaches who go beyond the minimum. They are not out there for the stipend, that’s for sure.

“We’re a young team” overall, says Jones, who also helps coach football at Bishop’s from “time-to-time.”

“We’ve got about six seniors on the team. All the rest are freshmen and sophomores. Actually, they’re pretty talented. It’s real promising for the young athletes. I’m excited about their performance” (in the opening competition with La Jolla and Country Day).

Jett Liu is a four-year distance runner. “He has always excelled in the mile and two-mile (equivalents for

the 1600 and 3200 meters, respectively),” says Jones.

“He’s got great leadership with the distance group. They look up to him as their leader. He’s never putting them down. He’s always encouraging them. I could never run the twomile (when I was a student), but if I had a leader like that, I probably would have stayed.”

Liu ran the 1600 meters in 5:13.07. Two days later, at the Mt. Carmel Invitational, he set a new school record at 4:56.76.

Every year for four years straight, the senior has set a new school record in the event: As a freshman three years ago, Liu ran 4:59.2.

Then, a year later, he bettered his school record at the Coastal Conference finals with a time of 4:53.46.

Last year, Liu’s record mark was 4:54.21.

In the 3200 as a junior, he ran a personal record of 10:31.07, again in the conference finals.

“It’s exciting that they (his athletes) had such a good outing to open the season,” said the head coach. “We had a couple of rainouts last week.”

Senior Brian Donnelly runs the

300-meter hurdles, “but we put him in an 800-meter run (at La Jolla), which is unforgivable,” chuckled the good-natured Jones. “We’re trying to build up his strength, and the determination he showed was excellent. I probably would have stopped after the first lap, but he’s willing to go the next step. He’s willing to do what the coaches say, even though he can’t see the (immediate) result.”

He registered a time of 2:34.01 in his 800-meter frolic. In the 300-

meter hurdles, Donnelly holds a PR of 44.42 seconds. His PR in the 110meter hurdles is 18.04 seconds.

“Track and field is the kind of individual sport where you develop according to the amount of time you spend on the track,” observed Jones.

“I have such a good group of kids at Bishop’s. I try to make sure they are having a good time. I want good, friendly sportsmanship and development.”

LJ Parks and Beaches committee talk public restrooms, lift stations

BY DAVE SCHWAB La Jolla Parks and Beaches, Inc. overwhelmingly approved updated plans for the Scripps Park Pavilion/Comfort Station, while sanctioning, in principal, a full-blown environmental study for the 3.1million-gallon La Jolla Reservoir project in La Jolla Heights Natural Park.

On Feb. 27, new LJPB chair Ann Dynes took over for outgoing chair Dan Allen. Dynes cited Allen for his “incredible dedication,” which drew applause and a standing ovation.

The La Jolla Cove Pavilion is a

long-term project to replace outdated and deteriorating restroomshower facilities with an attractive, sustainable pavilion honoring the beauty of the Cove and Scripps Park.

Previously, the parks advisory group expressed concern about the Pavilion project's needing to be “right-sized” — large enough to accommodate all users including swimmers and divers, but small enough to maximize ocean views obscured by existing restroom facilities.

City staffer Elizabeth SchrothNichols and architect Bill Magnuson of Mosher Drew Architects in

La Jolla, gave a slideshow presentation detailing how Safdie Rabines Architects' original pavilion design has been tweaked to accommodate LJPB and resident's concerns.

The comfort station's design has been modified to allow “a kiosk for a park ranger or something,” Schroth-Nichols said. She added the project will demolish the existing comfort station and build a new one.

“Currently a pump station exists within the comfort station that services the bridge club and the comfort station,” Schroth-Nichols said after the LJPB meeting. “The new comfort station will be designed

such that it will feed gravity to the street, eliminating the need for a pump station.”

With the elimination of the existing pump station, Schroth-Nichols added that a lift station will be designed to service only the bridge club. “Our lift station designers will first be determining whether the bridge club can feed to the street via gravity,” she said. “If not, a lift station will be designed.”

LJPB board member Bill Robbins noted there have been serious problems at La Jolla public restrooms with people “flushing beach towels” and other inappropriate items down toilets causing sewage backups.

“If you don't have some way to get those kind of things shredded before it gets to the main — we're in trouble,” Robbins said.

Schroth-Nichols said the city has learned from its previous mistakes, contending the proposed comfort station will function effectively.

Magnuson noted “the two wings of the comfort station are almost two separate buildings. We're planning for trees to be there and wheelchair-accessible stalls.”

“People asked for family toilet rooms and we've got them,” con-

Narcissism: Healthy or pathological?

Doing it Better

By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. Narcissism is a term that has been widely used to describe a host of undesirable traits. However, most of us exhibit some aspect of it to a greater or lesser degree. Self-esteem, confidence, and feeling a bit special are all healthy; yet, always feeling superior to others becomes problematic. In other words, narcissism is on a continuum from healthy selfregard to a pathological personality disorder. Most of us are somewhere on that scale.

According to Rebecca Webber, (“The Real Narcissists,” Psychology Today, September 2016) narcissism is a highly heritable trait, and it manifests itself early in life. An overly attention-seeking preschooler might end up more on the hazardous end of the scale, whereas the cautious child may become a healthier adult. Parenting styles also have an impact. Warm, caring parents help children internalize the belief they are worthy individuals, the core of self-esteem. By contrast, parents who praise unrealistically and place their children on a pedestal are more likely to promote narcissistic traits.

Personally, I do not always know whether telling a friend about some accomplishment is sharing my pleasure or boasting. I think the difference is intent. If the intent is to be admired, it is narcissistic; if it is to share some newly acquired knowledge, it is collegial. There is a fine line between the two, and they can overlap. Barack Obama once said that the issue for a lot of people is the fear of insignificance. We all want to

tinued Magnuson.

The city's maintained existing huge trees on-site need to be removed due to old age and problems presented by their invasive roots.

Parks board members Dr. Jane Reldan and Melinda Merryweather advocated the need for maintaining appropriately large-sized trees around the comfort station.

“People use the shade a lot,” noted Reldan.

“Trees take forever to grow,” pointed out Merryweather, asking, “What size are the trees going to be?”

City engineer George Freiha responded he was uncertain of the exact size, but suggested trees to be planted would likely be mid-sized.

be loved, and most wish for recognition. We want to be a valued member of society. Yet, there are also those who prefer anonymity, to be invisible in a crowd, to fade into the woodwork.

The people who are upfront and visible, who have a cause they pursue, who are vocal regarding issues they care about, who monopolize conversations, may be seen erroneously as narcissistic. Feeling good about oneself and wanting others to recognize one’s accomplishments while still being confident enough to welcome helpful criticism is the kind of self-esteem we encourage in children.

People with a narcissistic personality have some common traits, such as needing to be the center of attention or feeling entitled to special treatment. This may arise from trying to compensate for feelings of insecurity or vulnerability, which can be manifestations of a fear of being found to be not as important as one professes to be. While these traits exist in some form in many people, narcissism becomes a personality disorder that needs treatment when one: Is unable to handle even the slightest criticism to the point of seeking revenge; Exaggerates one’s achievements or talents; Feels unjustifiably superior to others or expects to be recognized as more knowledgeable without achievements that warrant it; Surrounds him or herself with people who are in agreement and dismisses those with a contrary opinion; Needs constant admiration; Expects special favors and, if they’re not forthcoming, becomes enraged; Refuses to take into account the needs or feelings of others; Belittles others or calls them

names; Lies to convince oneself and others about one’s superiority to the point of constant, obsessive selfaggrandizement; Denies any reality that threatens one’s image to the point of inventing, and often believing wholly fictional scenarios.

All of these traits are pathological because they are not connected to reality.

Treating people with narcissistic personality disorder is thorny because of their assumption that if their superiority is not recognized, it is the fault of others for not seeing and acknowledging it. The defenses are so strong that it is difficult to deal with until the whole edifice cracks under the pressure of a more reality-based belief system. The ensuing depression can be a positive outcome because it exposes the underlying feelings of worthlessness which can then be dealt with to arrive at a new reality.

The opposite of narcissism is humility. A leader who is humble would be self-aware, could acknowledge his or her limitations, faults and mistakes, would be open to feedback even if critical, appreciate followers' strengths and contributions, have low self focus with an orientation toward others more than towards self. Leaders who are humble would consider mistakes as normal, even beneficial, to learning and failure as necessary to continued success.

Jean Wang et al "Understanding How Leader Humility Enhances Employee Creativity" The Journal of Applied Behavioral Science, March 2017.

La Jolla park reservoir project LJPB board member Patrick Ahern gave a slideshow presentation on the La Jolla Heights Natural Park Reservoir Project, which will demolish two existing reservoirs and build a new, larger 3.1-million-gallon reservoir in the park, returning all affected areas to their natural state planting native species once work is done.

Ahern noted the project will take at least two years to complete, from 2018 to 2020. He pointed out the project will displace tons of dirt with scores of trucks going in and out daily on Torrey Pines Road and Country Club Drive disrupting traffic flow causing a hardship for neighbors.

“We have some issues with that,” Ahern said. “This park is a natural asset, a very special place. A lot of issues need to be addressed, including the significant (environmental) impacts on this hillside.”

Former San Diego city manager and La Jollan Jack McCrory, from the audience, concurred with Ahern's assessment.

“It's appropriate to ask them (city) to go through a full environmental impact report to mitigate the impacts of this project,” McCrory said. “This is going to close that park for two years, put trucks hauling dirt on that road closing down one lane, and impact all of the homes in the area. Those impacts have to be discussed and analyzed.”

After LJPB's February meeting, La Jolla Town Council called a public forum to vet the La Jolla Reservoir and La Jolla Heights Park issues set for 6 p.m. Thursday, March 9 at La Jolla Rec Center. Following the forum, LJTC was expected to consider a motion to support LJPB's request for an eir for the proposed reservoir project.

RESIDENTIAL BROKERAGE

From my garden: It’s almost spring and time for The Secret Garden Tour

BY LINDA MARRONE As one of the original co-founders of The Secret Garden Tour of La Jolla, I am once again pleased to announce that this perennial favorite is now in its 19th year and will take place on Saturday, May 20.

Presented by the La Jolla Historical Society, The Secret Garden Tour offers a unique opportunity to wander through the garden gates and into some of La Jolla's most cherished secret gardens, where you can learn about horticulture, garden design, history and historic architecture. The tour helps support the Society's diverse programs and also helps to maintain their irreplaceable archives of photographs and memorabilia.

While the garden locations will remain a closely guarded "secret" until the day of the tour, here is a little "peek" at a few of the six featured gardens… A romantic garden that graces a historically designated 1930s, Edgar Ullrich-designed fantasy castle, oceanview gardens overlooking a canyon that features vegetable and fruit trees, a 1930s

Spanish-style home set in a botanical wonderland with specimen plants and spectrums of color and a garden that emphasizes water conservation with drought-tolerant plantings on more than an acre of land.

What sets the secret garden tour apart from other garden tours, besides the beautiful La Jolla settings, is that each garden features music from live musicians, as well as designer tabletop displays created for entertaining and artists painting each of the garden scenes. This year's poster features a painting from the 2016 Secret Garden Tour that was painted by artist Cherry Sweig.

New this year will be the “Friday Night Garden Candlelight Soiree!” This intimate garden gathering will take place Friday, May 19 in a beautiful garden that was one of the highlights on last year's tour, and was also featured in the November 2016 issue of San Diego Home/Garden Lifestyles magazine. Enjoy hor d'oeuvres, wine and music by candlelight while mingling with other garden

enthusiasts. Garden designer, botanist author and host of the popular KPBS show, "A Growing Passion,” Nan Sterman, will be the night's celebrity guest.

Returning again, The Secret Garden Boutique at Wisteria Cottage will be open to the public throughout tour day. The boutique offers gardening accessories, plants and gifts by various vendors known for their special artistic style and craftsmanship. Wisteria Cottage will also offer a wine reception from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. for tour participants.

There are two ways to enjoy the tour, either the self-guided tour or the platinum tour. The platinum tour includes an elegant brunch and docent-led shuttle service to the gardens. Early reservations are recommended as both the tour and candlelight soiree will sell out quickly.

Reservations are available at www.lajollahistory.org/events/secret-garden-tour/ or call the society at 858-459-5335 for more information. If you are a member of the society, you receive a discount on your tickets, so join today!

The Secret Garden Tour of La Jolla will be held on the weekend of May 20. Come explore La Jolla’s luxurious gardens.

San Diego theatre review: ‘Voices of Ireland’ at Lamb’s, ‘Waiting for Godot’ and more

BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE One of the most enjoyable events of the year, Write Out Loud, presents its annual “Voices of Ireland” at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, March 13 at Lamb’s Player’s Theatre. This year’s edition features San Diego’s “favorite Brit,” Ron Choularton, who will read Lord Dunsary’s “The Widow Flynn’s Apple Tree.”

Other actor/readers are Walter Ritter, Rachael van Wormer and Veronica Murphy. Tenor soloist is Kurt Norby, who will sing “Danny Boy” and “Sally’s Garden.” The Celtic Echoes ensemble plays beginning at 7 p.m. and champion Irish dancers complete the evening’s plentiful entertainment.

Tickets costs $40 with $10 discounts for season subscribers of Lamb’s Players or Write Out Loud.

Discounts for military and seniors at www.lambsplayers.org or by phone at 619-437-6000.

Winter season at UCSD kicks off with David Rabe’s “Streamers” If the Kim Rubinstein’s undergraduate production of “Streamers” (it closed March 4) in UCSD’s Winter Season was any indication, your entertainment dollar is in good hands. Design elements are always tops and the graduate actors, part of the MFA program for actors, designers and directors, are tops.

Through March 11 in the Potiker Theatre one may see Kyle Donnelly’s production of Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew(d).” Opening March 10 in the Shank Theatre is Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot” (through March 18). Playing in the Arthur Wagner Theatre March 15 to 17 is “Anansi, the Story King,” adapted and directed by Nadine GeorgeGraves. Tickets cost $10 to $20.

For more information, visit www.theatre.ucsd.edu or 858534-4574.

Meanwhile, here in San Diego we are expecting Peter Brook’s 90minute distillation of Bizet, “The Tragedy of Carmen,” which plays three performances at the Balboa Theatre at 7 p.m. on March 10 and 11, and at 2 p.m. Sunday, March 12. It’s part of the San Diego Opera’s new Shiley tour series. Don’t miss this opera. It is an incendiary nugget with lots of sex appeal! www.sdopera.com Playwright Gets Oscar for Film Adaptation Once the dust settled at the 2017 Academy Awards ceremony Sunday, Feb. 26, we learned that “Moonlight” was indeed the winner for Best Picture. Furthermore, playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney was among the “Moonlight” winners, garnering a statuette for Best Writing Adapted for his story from his own play “In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue.”

McCraney was celebrated prominently in the area five years ago, with production of two plays, “In the Red and Brown Water” at UCSD and “The Brothers Size” at the Old Globe Theatre. McCraney counted among his mentors/idols the late great August Wilson, whose film “Fences” was also in contention for this year’s best picture. I’m sure that wherever he is, Wilson is smiling.

Famed Drag Legend to Raise Funds for New Plays Theater fans won’t want to miss this one: Renowned drag performer and playwright Charles Busch (Playhouse’s ‘The Third Story’ and Broadway’s ‘The Tale of the Alchemist’s Wife’) provides a delicious cabaret event to raise money for La Jolla Playhouse’s New Play Development Programs.

Titled “The Lady at the Mic,” the cabaret was written and is performed by Busch, who is accompanied by Tom Judson. The event will occur at 8 p.m. on Friday, March 24 at The Abbey, 2825 Fifth Ave. Tickets are $100 for the pre-show reception at 7 p.m. followed by the performance. Tickets that include a post-performance meet and greet with Busch are $150. Additionally, there will be an after-after party at Martinis Above Fourth (located at 3940 Fourth Ave.). For information and tickets: www.lajollaplayhouse.org or call 858-550-1010.

La Jolla Rotary clubs discuss service projects, acknowledge member contributions

BY BLAKE BUNCH On Friday, March 3, members of all five area Rotary Clubs met for a breakfast event at the Braille Institute. Here presidents of all clubs invoked past and present service projects – one of which is the eradication of polio internationally – as well as acknowledging the ongoing efforts of their members and trustees. Incoming trustee Brenda Cressey was present as the keynote speaker.

Cressey spoke at-length regarding the charitable arm of their organization, the work they continue to do internationally and domestically and other uplifting tales of successful projects past.

“The charitable arm of the Rotary Club has been chosen as No. 3 in the world amongst other organizations,” said Cressey, as they will receive an award as such this April in San Francisco. “Currently, we have assets of more than $3 billion. In regards to our fight in the eradication of polio, we’ve been able to contribute $1.6 billion to protect more than two billion children around the world.

Since we have been fortunate enough to partner with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, we’re absolutely nearing the ‘end game’ now.

“We’re able to tap into that glob-

al network,” said Cressey. “There are currently 45,000 donors on www.rotary.org and we make the very best of our contributions.”

One project, in particular, that Cressey seemed rather fond of was a mission trip with 100 volunteers to El Salvador, Guatemala and Panama. Here, they were able to witness several, life-altering surgeries. Perhaps the greatest success of the mission, to Cressey, involved the distribution of wheelchairs (mobility) to a population with the general lack of resources to purchase a decent wheelchair.

One man came in on the back of his teenaged grandson,” Cressey elaborated. “Once we were able to get him seated in his new chair, he raised his hands up to the sky in prayer and thanks and there was not a dry eye in the house. I looked back to see his grandson crying tears of joy as well.

“You know, this is why we place such an emphasis on our six areas of focus. One never knows how many people’s lives can be affected with a $75 wheelchair.”

Li Haui’s ‘You Fascinate Me!’ to be shown at Sparks Gallery La Jolla’s renowned resident artist Li Huai will celebrate a solo show titled “You Fascinate Me!” at San Diego’s Sparks Gallery on Saturday, March 11. The reception will be complemented with refreshments and appetizers and is to be hosted from 6 to 9 p.m.

“You Fascinate Me!” will run through June 11.

“You Fascinate Me!” is thematically sectioned in three parts, “All That Grandeur,” “All That Romance” and “All That Radiance.” Haui noted that the exhibit exemplifies, in part, her love for travel.

“Going places and seeing things is stimulating, intimidating and rewarding, whenever one does it,” she said. “Traveling makes me aware and forces me to learn on various meaningful, complicated and playful levels.

The mechanisms of connection, disconnection, reflection and reconfirmation are intensely intimate and fascinating. Wandering around recharges my world and makes me want more.”

Huai also described “You Fascinate Me!” as reminiscent of her “tender spot for painting, drawing and doodling,” that circles back to her ominous and restrictive childhood in China. With Mao Tse-Tung’s cultural revolution serving as the backdrop of Huai’s early years, the grey man – as Huai referred to the brutal dictator – closed all schools and rampaged his people. Forced to stay indoors because of the chronic danger lurking outside, Huai passed the time by drawing.

“As a kid with nothing to do – it was so very cruel. I doodled and drew the Cultural Revolutionary-themed comic books that my mother gave me,” she said. “I fell in love with art, even though I intended to study physics. But with nothing to do but draw, art became my passion.”

By the time Huai could attend college, she received her BA in filmmaking from the Beijing Film Academy. The petite dynamo arrived in the U.S. in 1983 at age 27, with her husband, Paul Pickowicz, a professor at UCSD. America electrified the Chinese native to a world of art that was “so much more than I ever imagined possible.” Changing direction, Huai received her MFA in Art at the California Institute of the Arts. Today, Huai is a faculty member of the Visual Arts Department at UCSD. Huai’s training as a filmmaker intensified her interest to manipulate and interchange art images for “multiple interpretations of visual elements.” “You Fascinate Me!” follows accordingly, constructing and manipulating a

myriad of substances that challenge preconceived notions of Huai’s audience. “In this exhibition, I manipulate and interchange specific forms, symbols, repetitions, and positions to challenge the preconceptions of viewers,” she said. “I want people to experience my art. ‘You Fascinate Me!’ uses sections to attract and seduce viewers. First you see something visually beautiful that lends itself to a certain kind of integrity. After you’ve been seduced, you want to know more. That’s how ‘You Fascinate Me!’ relates to the viewers.”

Huai described “All That Grandeur” as Chinese ink on paper. Landscape compositions are composed with Chinese traditional brush painting. Everyone “literally” walks through the painting’s trees and mountains.

“You’re in and out of space that’s familiar and exotic,” she said. “It’s confusing, seductive and beautiful.”

“All That Romance” uses acrylic, oil paint and Chinese ink that echoes “All That Grandeur.”

Huai describes it as an emotional, intellectual and reflective experience.

“You see what you want to see or what you like to see,” she said. “‘All That Romance’ is your own relationship and interpretation of experiencing different places, people, language, food, culture, history, so on and so forth.”

“All That Radiance” is about the revelation of one moment.

Haui reflected back to her art history studies to “understand the details of composing religious icons on wood panels.

“I studied historical documents to learn how to construct wood panels, glue, and prime the surface; as well as gold-leafing (24 karat) and oil painting wood,” she said. “I studied every detailed process down to scale. I was triggered by my early education, learning so much but not

enough. Physically working the panel series took me much longer than I wanted or expected it to. The process and motion of labor was painfully tedious, but necessary. By the time I had finished, I had an incredibly beautiful labor of love filled with radiance.

“The pieces of Li Huai’s solo exhibition, ‘You Fascinate Me!,’ represent an exciting period of her work,” said Sonya Sparks, owner and curator of Sparks Gallery. “The artist masterfully revisits the visual vocabulary of her early works alongside an intimate meditation on her own art by way of age-old techniques.

Huai’s traditionally crafted works also feature a contemporary visual twist, combining old and new for an elegant balance.”

Huai is adamant about sharing her artistic ideas. Her specialties include installation art, painting, drawing, multi-media, and Chinese calligraphy. Inspired

by life, people, books, and “conversations with everyone,” Haui said that “all departures from art are trigger points for art.” Critics describe Huai’s work as "fascinating, bold, adventurous,” and a “risky visual catharsis that’s wonderful with vivid explorations of color and form."

ROACH >> CONT. FROM PG. 7

Roach, in the interim year since leaving La Jolla’s program as offensive coordinator, served as defensive coordinator at La Jolla Country Day School.

His previous coaching resume includes one year at Scripps Ranch High School as defensive coordinator and two years at his alma mater, University City High School. Roach was an all-league center and middle linebacker, playing both ways, at UC in his junior and senior years, while serving as team captain. He was

named team MVP and Academic All-CIF. He went on to star at Azusa Pacific University as a fullback and halfback, graduating with a degree in sociology in 2009. His wife Leslie and he have an infant son, Marshall.

Tanner Watson, another Viking senior who played for Roach as a junior, said in reaction to his former coach being hired as head coach, “I think that’s great for the program, because he’s a guy who’s been here and knows the program. He brings knowledge.

He knows how to run an offense.

He knows La Jolla and the players.”

LJVMA revamps website, adresses ‘La Jolla Day’ at Petco Park

BY DAVE SCHWAB In March, La Jolla Village Merchants Association discussed strategic planning and community outreach, revamping the group’s website and La Jolla Day at Petco Park.

LJVMA chair James Niebling praised the merchant group’s recent effort by block captains going out on the street and physically connecting with Village merchants.

“We’re looking to reach out to businesses and help them do better in terms of revenues,” said Niebling. “We need to keep our topics focused. It’s really critical to let everyone know we value their ideas and input, and that we will incorporate that in the decisions we make.”

Niebling noted block captains employ a boots-on-the-ground strategy to survey merchants as to their business needs, answering questions they have about how the LJVMA can best serve them.

“We need to keep the needle moving in terms of this initiative, and that we see things through to the finish line,” he said.

Regarding a redo of LJVMA's website, Niebling said they've been reviewing applications from web designers noting, “We have two candidates who are really solid right now.”Niebling added he felt LJVMA needs to focus on marketing and promotions.

“We need to create some synergy around our tasks,” he said. “I really want to leverage everyone else's (board's) talents as much as

possible. Get them involved in our marketing initiatives. We need your help. Step up.”

LJVMA executive director Sheila Fortune noted the group’s intent to participate once again in “La Jolla Day” at Petco Park, once a suitable date can be found. “The most people we had there on La Jolla day was about 200,” noted Fortune, adding last year about 100 La Jollans participated.

Brad Dwight, of the Padres, said La Jolla is being offered a better deal for less cost this year in the ball park's T-Mobile section.

Dwight pointed out La Jolla Day is helping develop a “symbiotic relationship” between the team and the community.

“It’s just trying to build more community in a different place,” agreed Fortune.

In other action: • Marshall Spevak of Infoboard, a company specializing in improving the visitor travel experience, gave a slideshow presentation detailing technology used by the Visitor Information Center in downtown San Diego's Embarcadero that he said could be used to promote tourism in La Jolla. “We had 275,000 visitors come to the information center in 2015,” said Spevak, noting Infoboard has helped promote tourism in Little Italy, Old Town and Seaport Village.

“I’d love to see something you guys put together for La Jolla,” said LJVMA board member Ike Fazzio who expressed reservations that many downtown San Diego information center visitors “may not be a La Jolla crowd.”

The board supported a request by diver

‘La Jolla Day’ at Petco Park saw about 100 La Jollans participate last year, and as many as 200 in prior years. Although a date is yet to be set, participation is highly encouraged.

John Leek to send a letter supporting Leek’s efforts to get a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration official to come to La Jolla to review the situation at Children’s Pool. Animal activists and ocean users there continue to spar over regulations requiring safe distances being kept between humans and harbor seals to prevent harassment of the marine mammals. The diver and activists disagree over what constitutes a

“safe distance” between the species.

With Council District 2 La Jolla rep Mauricio Medina present, a rep from Karl Strauss Brewery in La Jolla complained that lighting on Wall Street has been mostly out the past couple of months. Fortune said she’s contacted the city and was told they only have one truck available to deal with lighting issues, a situation she characterized as “unacceptable.”
