Kiwanis grease the griddle for flapjack fund-raiser The Kiwanis Club of La Jolla will host its 46th annual pancake breakfast this Saturday, Aug. 1.

“Flapjacks & Families” offers all-you-can-eat blueberry pancakes, sausage and beverage from 7 to 11 a.m. at La Jolla Recreation Center, 615 Prospect St. Adding to the festivities will be a live local band, raffle drawings and beach prizes.

Tickets, which are $10 (children ages 10 and under free) can

be obtained at the door or by calling chairman Brant Westfall, (858) 922-8610.

The pancake breakfast is a major fund-raiser for the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla, which holds the La Jolla Half Marathon and Junior Olympics in spring and supports the La Jolla Rough Water Swim each fall.

Through its La Jolla Kiwanis Foundation, the club gives out more than $100,000 each year to aid local children. ■

Lifeguards claim union reps strong-arm votes

San Diego city lifeguards will cast their votes via secret ballot Aug. 1 to determine whether a majority wants to stay with the San Diego Municipal Employees Association (MEA) union or join the local 911 Teamsters. But some lifeguards said MEA members sent letters threatening dissenters with loss of contracts.

“In the [e-mail, the attorney says] we would absolutely lose our contract that we are in, but there’s no law supporting that,” Lifeguard Sgt. Ed Harris said. “In

fact, there are laws to the opposite of that.”

Harris and other lifeguards began lobbying months ago for the opportunity to leave the MEA — the union that represents lifeguards in addition to other city workers — in order to join the local 911 Teamsters. According to Harrris, joining the Teamsters would allow lifeguards more individual representation. So lifeguards asked city council members to approve an election.

Activists ride road, waves for ocean

BY RONAN GRAY | VILLAGE NEWS

Marcus Eriksen and Anna Cummins have a message in a bottle that they just cycled 2,000 miles to deliver: There is a patch of plastic debris slowly circulating in the Pacific Ocean that covers the size of Texas. It has doubled in size in the past 10 years and there is new evidence to suggest that the toxins it harbors are making their way into our food supply.

The couple, who work for the nonprofit environmental group Algalita Marine Research Foundation (AMRF), stopped at Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach on June 27 after they had completed a 2,000mile cycle from Vancouver to Tijuana to raise awareness about a heavily polluted area of the Pacific Ocean known as the Eastern Garbage Patch. Eriksen and Cummins spoke with surfers and locals about their journey and mission and plan to return to give a full presentation to the nonprofit San Diego Coastkeeper in the fall.

The bike trip was part of a campaign called Junk Ride 2009 that gave Eriksen and Cummins the opportunity to speak at 40 events, meet with five mayors and deliver bottles of plastic-laden water samples that they took from the Eastern Garbage Patch in the Northern Pacific Gyre a year ago. The Gyre is a remote area of the Pacific Ocean approximately 2,000 miles from the coast where the confluence of currents sets up a slowly rotating mass of water larger than the United States that traps the plastic debris in a massive gyre,

or circular swirl.

“Message in a bottle was a three-phase campaign,” said Eriksen, who last year sailed from California to Hawaii on a raft comprised of discarded plastic bottles called the Junk raft. “Phase one was to go out and get these samples. Phase two was the Junk raft, and phase three was to go out and give these samples away.”

Plastics do not readily break down in the environment. The material lingers for decades in the oceans, where currents wash it onto remote beaches or congregate plastic debris into huge, slowly rotating garbage patches like the one found in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

The debris is a hazard to fish, birds and marine mammals that become tangled in it and often mistake it for food. Seabirds die of starvation when indigestible debris clogs their stomachs, leaving no room for food. The AMRF argues that the problem is a threat to human health as well.

Persistent pollutants that don’t

mix with water, such as oil, pesticides, PCBs and flame retardants, are attracted to plastic debris in the ocean.

“Tests have shown concentrations of these toxins on plastic debris that are a thousand times greater than the surrounding water,” said Cummins, referring to the study “Persistent organic pollutants carried by synthetic polymers in the ocean environment,” which can be found at Algalita’s Website: algalita.org/research.html.

“Now we’re finding trash inside the fish we eat,” Eriksen said. “Our founder, Captain [Charles] Moore, is on our research vessel headed to Hawaii right now. He just caught a mahi-mahi, which is a fish that you find in fish tacos in local restaurants, and its gut was full of plastic. The fish that eat the plastic absorbs the pollutants into their flesh and we eat the fish.”

Cummins said AMRF doesn’t advocate abandoning plastics altogether but suggests that society abandon the throw-away culture that has spawned so many onetime-use plastic products. Plastic grocery bags, bottles, utensils, straws, chopsticks and to-go containers linger in the environment for decades after being discarded.

Cummins suggested an extended producer-responsibility for the manufacturers who make plastic products that would force them to be responsible for recycling them at the end of their useful lifespan.

Similar programs already exist in Europe.

“Recycling plastic is not as easy as recycling other materials, like

glass and aluminum,” Eriksen said. There are seven commonly used types of plastics and they cannot be recycled together.

“Plastic has a low melting point, which means that pizza grease or soda on recyclables cannot be burned off during the recycling process like it can with glass and aluminum,” Eriksen said.

In fact, recycling plastics is so expensive that much of the plastic collected in the U.S. is mostly shipped overseas for recycling.

Stephen Grealy manages San Diego’s Waste Reduction Disposal Division Program. Grealy said that most of San Diego’s plastics end up in Pacific Rim countries, where they are recycled into bottles or fabrics used to manufacture carpets. San Diego uses a processor that separates and cleans the plastic before it is shipped abroad.

Grealy said the processor is charged if the items are too dirty and so the company has an incen-

tive to send clean products for recycling.

Eriksen said the problem with recycling plastic is that it’s “downcycled,” meaning the recycled product is less valuable than the product it came from.

“They are not making a new plastic bottle from an old one, like they do with glass or aluminum,” he said. “We think that it’s really important for people to know this, because if you think that you’re recycling your plastics, there’s no incentive to cut back on your consumption.”

Besides carrying grocery bags to the store and avoiding one-timeuse plastic items, Eriksen suggested scrutinizing the durable goods people consume.

“Our bikes are both reused bikes,” Eriksen said of the bike he just rode for 2,000 miles. “The point is that it doesn’t take a huge investment to get a bike and to start riding it.” ■

to choose,” Harris said. “We’re really confident the council wouldn’t penalize us for choosing in either direction.”

MEA acting general manager Michael Zucchet sent a July 21 letter to full-time and seasonal lifeguards and MEA union members with an attached memorandum from the organization’s attorney, Ann Smith, titled “What happens to MEA’s twoyear MOU if the teamsters become the new union for lifeguards?”

Though lifeguards will begin voting Aug. 1, Smith’s letter said the “MEA’s new 2year MOU [contract] just took effect on July 1, 2009... this 2-year protection will be gone, however, if the Teamsters become the new union for either or both of the new lifeguard units.”

Smith continues to write, “Under the law... the current MOU between the city and the MEA will no longer be in effect for [the lifeguards] who vote MEA ‘out’ and the Teamsters ‘in.’”

Zucchet said in an interview that Smith’s letter was not threatening individual lifeguards.

“Every piece of information we have sent to the lifeguards has been unemotional,” Zucchet said. “The documents speak for themselves.”

MEA negotiated a 6 percent pay cut for union members — including lifeguards — according to Harris. But, Zucchet said, the lifeguards were fighting to keep the new contract, adding that certain facets were better than for other city workers, such as police and firefighters.

“MEA has negotiated provisions specifically dedicated to lifeguards...,” MEA supervising labor relations representative Nancy Roberts reported in a July 22 letter.

In a written response to lifeguards, Zucchet said, “Any fear regarding the prospect of losing the protections of MEA’s two-year binding labor contract are not being generated by MEA. They are being driven by the

economic and political realities of our time.”

“The MEA is using this to put doubt in the minds of lifeguards,” Harris said. “What they haven’t done in the 10-month process is tell us what they would do better or how they would represent us better. What they have done is try to stop the vote from taking place.”

According to Zucchet, MEA representatives asked Teamsters on several occasions to meet for a debate, but the Teamsters declined.

“A lot of the issues have been this ‘he said, she said’ stuff, and so our attorney puts out a memo and then their attorney puts out a memo,” Zucchet said. “We thought the best way would be to put both sides in a room and let the lifeguards hear both sides to see who was more credible, but obviously the Teamsters weren’t as confident because they refused to do it.”

City officials — mainly the city attorney — were slated to weigh in on the issue, Zucchet said.

“I guess the ironic thing about this is the Teamsters come to town and say they can do better than the MEA, and then they promise that they can keep their MEA contract,” Zucchet said “What the Teamsters have done is keep a solid timeline in place,” Harris said. “To me, it’s like an alcoholic under the MEA — nothing is going to get better because they won’t admit there’s anything wrong.” ■

City Council voted unanimously Tuesday to approve an ordinance designed to boost safety at skate parks like the one at Robb Field in Ocean Beach. The ordinance both adds rules and revises existing ones.

“These new rules will help make our skate parks safer and calmer,” said District 2 City Councilmember Kevin Faulconer. “It closes loopholes and allows the police department to enforce laws more effectively, ultimately providing a higher quality of service for families using the park.”

Ongoing court battles over the Children’s Pool — mainly whether Hoffman could enforce a previous order ruling the city to return the area to its 1941 condition by dispersing a colony of seals — climaxed July 23 at Hoffman’s hearing to choose an efficient seal dispersal plan.

‘No Joke’ bandit ordered to stand trial The alleged “This Ain’t No Joke” bandit who started holding up yogurt and ice cream stores in La Jolla and elsewhere was ordered July 23 to stand trial on 18 robbery and attempted robbery charges. The bandit reportedly expanded his targets to include hamburger joints, a sushi restaurant and even a Marie Callender’s restaurant, but no customers were ever robbed.

About 20 witnesses were called to testify in the preliminary hearing of Jamel Tishan Powers, 24, in San Diego Superior Court. The prosecutor said she has not determined the total loss taken in the robbery series, but it is well in the thousands of dollars because one of the first holdups netted the robber $7,184.

San Diego police dubbed the series with the nickname because the robber said this each time: “This ain’t no joke. I’m serious — this is a robbery.”

Powers is accused of holding up T.G.I.F., often known as Fridays, at 8801 Villa La Jolla, and with robbing the TF Yogurt shop on the same street on different days in April. Powers is also charged with holding up Cold Stone Creamery in Pacific Beach on March 29 and other Creamery stores in Hillcrest and Mira Mesa. A Marie Callender’s restaurant in La Mesa was also held up, and the sushi restaurant was in Old Town.

Powers was arrested at his El Cajon home on May 12 by San Diego police, and he remains in the South Bay Detention Facility on $350,000 bail. He pleaded not guilty to all charges before Judge John Thompson, who conducted the preliminary hearing.

Camp E.D.G.E. in session next week

UCSD student clubs merge behind Obama After Barack Obama was elected and became known as the “YouTube President,” several student Democratic clubs at the University of California, San Diego, decided to merge.

“It was no coincidence that the unification coincided with the inauguration of Barack Obama because Students for Barack Obama (SFBO) was one of the largest student organizations in 2007 and 2008,” said Sean Quirk, president of the College Democrats at UCSD. “Progressive College Democrats (Procodem) formed in the spring of 2008 after the California Democratic primary ended.”

A great deal of support that Obama enjoyed at UCSD comes from the fact that he, like millions of people across the country these days, uses new technology including Facebook, Myspace and Twitter.

“The unified College Democrats at UCSD hopes to not only promote but act on the ideals of the Democratic Party,” Quirk said. “In a broad perspective, we aim to promote social and socioeconomic equality in America, and through these efforts, we hope to engage students in the political process,

GUEST COMMENTARY

Facts in ‘Out of Room’ given out of context

BY TED KANATAS & KELLY COMMERFORD

t was with great dismay that we read Martin Jones Westlin’s “Out of Room” Pride article in your fine publication (Downtown News, July).

You are correct, Mr. Westlin, that at one time Doug Manchester did support Proposition 8 financially, at the direction of his church, nearly two years ago. Now, thanks to his willingness to listen and the humility to admit to a wrong, Mr. Manchester believes that every American is deserving of the opportunity to receive all the benefits from civil marriage, gay or straight.

Doug Manchester has apologized for his previous personal donation, has reaffirmed his commitment to the gay and lesbian community and has vowed to never again financially support any initiative that limits the rights of others. It was with great pride that we recently announced property owner Doug Manchester’s pledge of $125,000 to gay and lesbian organizations and initiatives — a $25,000 personal donation as well as $100,000 of in-kind donations by the Manchester Grand Hyatt.

Mr. Manchester, like so many others before him, thanks to the noble efforts of LGBT activists and community leaders, was humble enough to admit to a wrong and willing to support that sentiment with a public apology, a matching donation back to the gay and lesbian community and the conviction to see that through. The specifics surrounding the application to be a beneficiary of this donation will be made available soon.

their goal. Was the goal of the boycott on the Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego not to deliver an impactful message to owner Doug Manchester in order to turn a perceived foe into an ally? This was achieved. What kind of message are we sending when a community that acts so swiftly to take up arms against an “opponent” appears unable to recognize a white flag, an olive branch and a new partner in the fight ahead?

We understand firsthand that Doug Manchester has built an inclusive, diverse work force, and we are truly proud to be a part of it. We would also ask that you consider Hyatt’s track record with the LGBT community, with both those that are members of our Hyatt family and our extended family in the community.

We offer our employees domestic partner benefits and have a strong history of enforcing nondiscrimination at the Manchester Grand Hyatt. We have maintained a 100 percent rating from the Human Rights Campaign for nine years and have been honored with distinctions by other LGBT organizations and media, including The Advocate, as one of the top 10 gayfriendly employers in America.

In this case, Mr. Westlin, we believe that forgiveness and the celebration of a new ally in Mr. Manchester, not “discretion towards this particular venue,” is the better part of valor.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Keep up the campaign In his letter supporting the rights of squid (“Preserve squid beach,” Village News, July 23, page 6), Dan Linn raises the consciousness of all right-thinking citizens.

Yes, what will bring spendthrift tourists, what will the lawyers do, what will schoolchildren learn, how will newspapers survive without Squid Beach? We need the sights, the suits and countersuits, the bus trips to observe nature, the newsworthy topics that our noble wild squid provide.

Thank you, Dan. Keep up the campaign, blaze, pop! Save Squid Beach!

Does City Council have the will?

Re article “Seal deal goes back to court this morning (dispersal order stopped),” published 7/23/09: Now that the governor has signed the recently passed SB 428 bill that adds some additional language to the original trust agreement, many people are happily jumping up and down in the belief that this matter will finally come to an end with the City Council deciding to follow the City Attorney’s and Mayor Sanders’ advice and declare their intent to make the site exclusively a marine mammal viewing park once SB 428 becomes law on Jan. 1, 2010.

I believe that they and everyone who now believes that “... before long, this costly exercise will be concluded” are incorrect in taking this position. Instead, this view

and pursuing such a policy will surely result in even more wasted time and money since the new language merely adds an additional specific use to the other existing specified uses. It does not change, remove or give it priority over any of these other enumerated uses.

And, most importantly, it does not mean that the trust in its amended form will soon allow the City Council the “discretion” to let the seals stay, as they and state Sen. Christine Kehoe apparently believes it will. As of now, the city is still adjudged as being in breach of the Tidelands trust and will continue to be should it decide to ignore their continuing duties to restore and allow the public to access the site and engage in any of the other expressly stated uses.

Trust agreements, especially public trust agreements, are at the top of the list of agreements that must be strictly adhered to and faithfully executed. What the City Council should now do is ignore the City Attorney’s bad advice, quit wasting our tax money fighting to overturn the state court decision, and comply with Judge Pate’s orders to clean, restore and maintain the Children’s Pool for all of the expressly stated uses, especially for the main intended use as a “...bathing pool for children...”

The question is, does the City Council have the will to do what they’re legally obligated and have been ordered to do? Or, are they going to worry about their next election and take what is maybe a more popular position and thereby prolong this matter for even longer than they already have? I hope they choose to show

Don’t let this happen Children vs. Seals: I’ll speak for the children. The Children’s Pool, open to all, is mainly designed for toddlers and three of our 5-yearolds to wade, fill their pails and learn to swim without fear of waves. On most California beaches, waves break at toddlers’ height or higher. How many adults swim in waters where waves break over their heads?

Environmental impact: As more and more seals settle in this sheltered spot, the ensuing pollution will create a foul stench, unfair to the nearby residential areas; for example, Seal and Bird Rocks in Pebble Beach where the stench is formidable when the wind blows onshore.

As the seals deplete the fish in La Jolla Canyon (isn’t this supposed to be an Underwater Park where divers can observe marine life?), and local areas, they will have to seek their food farther and farther out. Sooner or later the sharks will come, and there will be loss of life as there has been on several occasions at Spanish Bay near Seal and Bird Rocks.

Aren’t beaches in California legally open to all below the high water mark? How then can a city arbitrarily turn a beach designed mainly for children into a marine reserve for seals? Don’t let this happen.

Staycation in San Diego with free and fun activities This Saturday the month of August will descend on us. Have you had a vacation this summer?

Maybe you haven’t thought of a vacation to an exotic place for many reasons, not the least being there is more month at the end of the money. Airlines are raising rates. Trains cost almost as much as planes and take longer to get to vacation destinations. Driving with two or three kids in the car may be stressful. Even the Pope, after having dinner with three kids under age 10 for four nights, wanted birth control to be a sacrament. Check it out on SNOPES. Seriously, the best kind of vacation in the summer of 2009 is a “staycation.”

Just look where you live. San Diego is the playground of mil-

lions of vacationers from all over the world. Think of last week’s Comic-Con visitors — more than 125,000 costumed consumers on vacation spending real bucks.

A staycation in San Diego can involve the regular tourist attractions: a visit to the incredible zoo, SeaWorld, Legoland or the Wild Animal Park but these attractions cost a lot of money. Why not plan events that don’t press the pocketbook so much? Don’t even look beyond your own backyard. University City is the perfect place for a low cost/almost no cost staycation with a couple of short side trips to Del Mar and La Jolla Shores.

With kids, you have to start out with some wild ideas. Here are suggestions for a fun family vaca-

tion in your own neighborhood.

On Friday night you put up a tent in the backyard. Eating dinner outdoors is a must. No cell phones, no TV, no iPods, no answering the phone inside your house because you are on vacation. The only writing you can do is penning postcards of San Diego to your friends and family. “We’re having a great camping experience here in San Diego.” OK, you can go in the house to use the bathroom facilities, but you can’t check your e-mail.

Saturday you get up for a free breakfast at Del Mar Racetrack. It is free on Aug. 1 — coffee, orange juice and doughnuts. During the morning workouts from 8 to 10 a.m. you can have your questions about horses and training answered by the experts. Jockeys and trainers will be there, as well as face painting, caricatures and free prizes for the kids. It all takes place in the Seaside Terrace area west of the Grandstand. Enter the main parking lot off Jimmy VILLAGE NEWS | DON BALCH Durante Boulevard.

Saturday afternoon you head to Standley Park is a whirl of star-spangled activity during the annual July 4 U.C. Celebration. This Saturday, Aug. 1, the park will again fill with people as the Bayou Standley Park at 3585 Governor Drive, where you listen to the Brothers perform and the community builds and eats a gigantic banana split.

zydeco, R&B tunes of the popular band The Bayou Brothers.

Besides that you get more free food, the biggest banana split in the country. Bring a banana, a reusable bowl and join in the fun provided by the Heimburger family, which donates tons of ice cream, and the rec center that provides syrups, whipped cream and cherries. A free concert and free ice cream are part of your staycation. Life is good. Bayou Brothers play from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. Banana split activities begin at 2 p.m.

At night you have to time this right, but you want to be heading to La Jolla Shores around 7 p.m. when most folks are leaving. You will see a spectacular sunset at 7:47 p.m. Besides that, you will get a parking place. The Shores is the perfect place for peoplewatching and dog studies. Do dogs look like their masters?

Bring dinner, pick out a bench and watch the sun slip down into the Pacific.

Sunday, you get up after a night of great rest in the tent and head to Rose Canyon in University City for a back-to nature experience.

Park your car at the south side on Regents Road and walk into the canyon. Follow the path and a couple of well-made bridges until you see a fence. Take a left at the fence and continue to walk until you come to the train tracks, which you should cross carefully.

Go right and follow the path to the exit on Genesee. Turn right and go back into the canyon and walk to the fence and then exit

left to Regents. You will experience an inner peace after being in Rose Canyon. Check out info@rosecanyon.org.

Fido deserves some fun too, so head up to Nobel Park at 8810 Judicial Drive. There’s a dog park available and lots of space for you to walk off yesterday’s doughnuts and banana split. Call the rec center to see what activities are available, 552-1626. Bring some softballs and gloves and get a family game going at one of the fields.

Sunday night you have another free concert at Standley Park when Will Faeber Band plays some tunes at Green Concerts Under Blue Skies from 5 to 7 p.m.

The green topic will be organic foods and products. By this time you will be craving healthful, organic food. Of course, you will want to bring a healthful picnic.

After the concert, you can head home and pack up the tent. It’s back to your own bed and all those high-tech gadgets that keep us connected. Don’t forget to mail your postcards. The post office needs the business. I’ll be waiting for my postcard. Happy staycation this weekend. ■

and Orion Weiss in a program of literature for two pianos, piano four hands, and two piano, eight hands that includes music by George Gershwin, Maurice Ravel, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Richard Wagner, Camille Saint-Saens, Gioacchino Rossini and Georges Bizet that promises to knock listeners’ ears off.

In his ninth season of artistic leadership, SummerFest music director Cho-Liang Lin said that he recently discovered many two-piano, eight-hands arrangements and decided to begin the annual chamber festival in “ultra-festive style.” He hastened to add that he selected pianists he knew would get along well with one another — two young, two seasoned — and have fun playing this unique program of his and Beach’s devising. McDermott, Parker and Lin have been friends since student days in New York City, Lin and Parker at the Juilliard School and McDermott at Manhattan School of Music.

Shifting gears, the Calder Quartet and a 14-piece SummerFest Chamber Orchestra conducted by Heiichiro Ohyama present music by Ernest Chausson, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Dmitri Shostakovich Saturday, Aug. 1.

Other SummerFest pianists include Andreas Haefliger, who plays an “Evening with…” recital Wednesday, Aug. 12. He performs Johannes Brahms’ Piano Trio in C Minor, Op. 101, with violinist Lin and cellist Fred Sherry; the Wagner-Liszt “Liebestod”

from “Tristan und Isolde,” S. 447; and is joined by the acclaimed actor Michael York, who will narrate Richard Strauss’ “Enoch Arden” Op. 38. When Beach ticked off his favorite programs, this was first on his list.

“The poem is by Alfred Lord Tennyson,” he said, “whose 200th birthday is just a couple days before our concert. The poem, a dramatic melodrama, was so popular in Europe and America that Strauss was inspired to write a piece for piano and narrator.”

Lin wanted to honor “extraordinary artist” Menahem Pressler, pianist and founding member of the recently retired Beaux Arts Trio, who will play an “Evening with…” recital Wednesday, Aug. 5. He is joined by Weiss in performance of Mozart’s Sonata in D Major for Two Pianos, K. 448,

and by violinists Lin and Margaret Batjer, violist Heiichiro Ohyama, and cellist Carter Brey in performance of Antonin Dvorak’s Quintet in A Major for Piano and Strings, Op. 81. Pressler plays Ludwig van Beethoven’s Piano Sonata in A-flat Major, Op. 110. The third “An Evening with…” concert features fiddler/composer Mark O’Connor in a program of his own works, assisted by violinist Yoon Kwon, cellists Felix Fan and Charles Curtis and pianist Joyce Yang.

The program includes O’Connor’s beloved “Appalachia Waltz.”

This season’s mini-festival within SummerFest (Tuesdays, Aug. 4, 11 and 18) features works by Felix Mendelssohn, whose 200th birthday anniversary is also observed this year.

Other programs include 20th Century Romantic Composers,

Despite tough times for the restaurant business, small profit margins and the usual problems that beset it, Mike McGeath insists that ingredient quality not be compromised, prices for menu items be lowered and generous portions retained. That’s a tall order, but judging by the flow of business one recent weekday night, Trattoria Acqua keeps drawing the crowds. As Mike says, profit margins average four cents on the dollar, and with the approximately 20 percent drop in business common to all La Jolla restaurants, with 15 years in the same location, with the same kitchen crew he has had since opening (Damaso and Hugo Lee), customers keep returning.

The new menu they have devised brings back the trattoria feel with which it started, with a series of menu items under $20, among them a meat loaf that your mama would have made if she were Italian, baked with mushrooms and served with a rich wine sauce. Another is half a chicken, seasoned with rosemary, garlic and lemon and served with a vegetable medSEE ACQUA, Page 9

Mussels have been around for a long time, this one is done with wine, pernod and herbs, spiked with creme fraiche, and of course a mahi-mahi as well as a risotto, which the day I was there was done with black tiger shrimp, asparagus, tomato and seasoned with saffron and parmigiana cheese.

Let’s talk appetizers now. A slew of them were listed beginning at $10, none higher than $15 and that one was a crab salad layered with avocado, tomatoes, mango and cucumber with a soy balsamic glaze. There are pizzas as well, including one named after the creators, real estate brokers Schroedl Sr. and Jr. Wouldn’t you like to have your name on a pizza?

But that’s only the beginning. There are a dozen pastas on hand, anything from angel hair to orecchiette and even a mac and cheese to which you can add chicken breast or Maine lobster if you so desire. But if you are hungry for meat, they have braised lamb shank done with Moroccan spices and served with Israeli cous cous and harissa, or roasted Sonoma quail stuffed with a luscious combination of spinach, raisins and pine nuts sided with Marsala mushroom sauce.

Magic for music Music can be magical and is one of the therapies used at the San Diego Center for Children. Appropriately, the evening’s fund-raising event was titled “The Magic of Music” and the honoree was its longtime musical director, Sundiata Kata. Centerpieces were dilapidated musical instruments picked up at Kobey’s and rehabbed with glittering gold paint by chair Doreen Schonbrun and her committee, including Mary Johnson for whom it was a labor of love because she has a vested interest in the SDCC — Jessica, her and George’s daughter, is the director of development at the facility. The kids performed, as did pianist Greg Watson, who is restating his career as a celebrity accompanist to the likes of Tina Turner and Jose Feliciano. Besides the monies raised that evening, another hopeful note: One of the kids was adopted just days before.

On a somewhat smaller scale was the birthday bash thrown for Rico (Star Fashions) at the Beverly Hills Four Seasons by its owner, Beverly Cohen. Besides the La Jolla contingent were many of his adoring clients from his Hollywood atelier, like Gloria Allred, whose latest celebrity cause is the octomom and, by the by, she is nothing like her TV persona.

LJ Girls 18-Under team surfaces with title Chargers kick off ’09-’10 training camp

BY DAVE THOMAS | VILLAGE NEWS

BY DAVE THOMAS | VILLAGE NEWS

The San Diego Chargers join the rest of the NFL this week in opening up training camps nationwide.

Even though the Chargers camp will be closed to the public (except for three open sessions at Qualcomm Stadium), there is much to be excited about this season.

On a down note, the Chargers noted recently that their training camp will for the most part be closed to the public due to a public safety issue. The Murphy Canyon site was damaged earlier this year by a drainage pipe that burst, leading to a 40-foot deep, 30-foot wide sinkhole. While the Chargers say the sinkhole has been filled, team officials also note that there is no guarantee the ground along it or around it is safe to tread on.

While the Murphy Canyon site is closed to the public for workouts, the Chargers will hold three practices at the “Q” in August: Aug. 5, 8 and 12.

Those sessions will be free and open to the public.

Sizing up the 2009 team, San Diego will look to a healthier LaDainian Tomlinson (1,110 yards and 11 TDs in 16 games on the ground last season), Darren Sproles (nearly 700 yards rushing/receiving), QB Philip Rivers (4,009 yards passing, 34 TDs) and wide receiver Vincent Jackson (1,098 yards receiving, seven TDs) to lead the way.

On defense, linebacker Shawne Merriman returns after playing in only one game last season due to surgery, while the Chargers look to

corner back Antonio Cromarte to return to his 2007 form when he picked off 10 passes (two interceptions in 2008).

In the meantime, the countdown is on until Saturday, Aug. 15, when the team hosts former AFC Western Division rival Seattle in the pre-season opener.

The La Jolla 16U girls placed fifth in the tournament, with the majority of the team being 14 years of age.

“After winning the Cal State games last year, the pressure was on us this year to win again,” La Jolla head coach Dante Laghetto remarked. “Our girls were not living up to everyone else’s expectations; instead they were just doing their job the best way they can, and the result was winning again without choking under pressure.”

On the boys side, the La Jolla 18U team placed seventh in the tournament.

WTT Junior Nationals set to swing into action

BY DAVE KENSLER | VILLAGE NEWS

Returning again for another year to San Diego is the Advanta World Team Tennis (WTT) Junior Nationals at the Barnes Tennis Center from Aug. 5 through 8.

Created by Billie Jean King, WTT co-founder and one of the great players in the history of tennis, the event is not a typical junior tennis tournament.

Instead of individual age group divisions, there are 16 co-ed teams from throughout the United States. They use the WTT for-

mat during the three days of non-elimination competition.

In addition to team competition, participants attend seminars and clinics conducted by King. Each team also receives a $500 grant from the Billie Jean King WTT Charities, Inc. King is active during the competition and it is the only time during the year in which she spends four days with junior tennis players.

Participants are in the 14- to 18-year-old range. In addition, team members are selected on their sectional and national rankSEE ACTION, Page B·2

Police teach bartenders to avert sexual assault

BY SEBASTIAN RUIZ | VILLAGE NEWS

Five cases of rape were reported in Pacific Beach during the first two months of 2009, according to San Diego Police Department reports. Sexual assaults, date rape and acquaintance rape rank high as some of the most underreported crimes, according to Northern Division Police Capt.

Shelley Zimmerman.

Allegations of rape could not be proven in one case and three of the cases ended in a “refusal to prosecute,” according to San Diego Police Det. Gary Hassen.

The fifth incident involved two consenting 17-year-olds and is not illegal, he said. Medical staff

reported the incident involving the teens, he said.

Police have now collaborated with the San Diego City Attorney’s Office and the Center for Community Solutions, a sexual assault prevention group, to train Pacific Beach bartenders and staff to recognize and possibly stop potential sexual assaults and rape in a bar or nightclub.

“We’re showing them ways to where – if you’re observing inappropriate behavior – how you can appropriately intervene,” said Angela Geisler, deputy city attorney for the criminal division.

Opening Day at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club broke another attendance record with 44,907 people last Wednesday, July 22.

Hats are always the biggest fashion statement, coming in all different sizes. This year was no exception, although more women opted to wear medium-size hats. The popular colors were black, white VILLAGE NEWS | CASEY DEAN

are taught to recognize intoxicated people who may be putting themselves at risk of being sexually assaulted by leaving the bar or club with a person they don’t know.

The training includes situational role-playing in which representatives from the Center for Community Solutions train bartenders and staff to separate potentially intoxicated people and ask them if they know the person with whom they’re leaving.

Center for Community Solutions loosely defines sexual assault as any unwanted sexual contact, said spokeswoman Kat Wager. That includes touching under clothes, lewd or obscene behavior, unwanted oral copulation or rape.

Girls get a little tipsy and don’t always make the best decisions.

ESTEFANIA VILA JOHNNY V

Wager said the message to staff and bartenders is simple.

“It happens a lot in a nightclub,” said Estefanìa Vila, a server at Johnny V nightclub on Garnet Avenue. “Girls get a little tipsy and don’t always make the best decisions.”

Police encouraged servers to protect intoxicated males as well.

But while the local government and agencies attempt to prevent sexual assault, Johnny V manager Emily Chambers has a different piece of advice for patrons.

“Take care and responsibility for yourself and don’t drink too much, because ultimately it’s your own responsibility,” she said.

The two Johnny V workers joined about 25 other staff, servers and bartenders from other local bars and nightclubs for the May 20 training at PB Bar and Grill.

Community leaders decided to start the program because of the high rate of sexual assaults and rape in the Pacific Beach area, Geisler said. One particularly horrifying sexual assault occurred in October 2006, when three men robbed a home on San Fernando Place with semi-automatic weapons and sexually assaulted

two female University of San Diego students. The three men were sentenced to life in prison, according to the Union-Tribune.

The incident sparked the San Diego City Attorney’s Office to develop the No Bystanders program.

Since April of 2008, representatives of the Center for Community Solutions and City Attorney’s Office have educated college students on the issue.

The No Bystander training aims to prevent similar crime as well as

acquaintance rape, date rape and other sex crimes.

Zimmerman said it’s important to report these crimes.

“Anytime you have heightened awareness, you have to increase reporting,” she said. “And it’s important to report these crimes not only to catch the suspect but to get the victim the help and to offer them the resources they will need.”

Shindy.tv brands products Hollywood mogul style

BY MARTIN JONES WESTLIN | VILLAGE NEWS

If you’re old enough to remember the last Ice Age (like me), you probably recall the first commercial television sets, the ones with the ugly little brown picture tubes and the uglier rabbit ears that never quite worked (and still don’t). Fact is, the medium dates all the way to 1928 and featured a batch of primordial 2-inch

screens. TV would surface in earnest in 1948, and even then, the technology was pretty terrible.

Pretty terrible, that is, by today’s standards. Sixty years’ lessons apparently weren’t lost on a fraternity of professionals who’ve routinely taken TV reproduction to modern levels — and one of them wants you to know that some San Diego attractions

figure into the latest wave of digitized culture and the public’s perception of it.

Streep cooks up a delicious Julia Child

BY JAMES COLT HARRISON | VILLAGE NEWS

A more delicious film could not have been made about chef Julia Child’s life than “Julie & Julia,” from director Nora Ephron and Sony Pictures Entertainment.

What a delight the film is and, more specifically, Meryl Streep as Child. She gets a terrific supportive boost from cute-as-a-button Amy Adams, her previous castmate in “Doubt.”

During my college years at Berkeley, I watched Julia Child on her TV show. Remembering her giggles and bizarre approach to cooking brings back fond memories. Who can forget her dropping a chicken on the floor and then sweeping it up with her bare hands and throwing it back into the pot because no one would know? It’s all here in the movie and more. The laughs are terrific, sometimes a surprise, and director Ephron makes use of every normal moment to milk some tickles out of the audience and an outpouring of love for Streep/Child.

The gallant old gal provided many moments of cheer for me while I was poring over my studies. This was at a time when I could not boil water, but her show was never missed. She was that mesmerizing, and so is Streep in her uncanny capturing of the odd speech patterns, silly giggle, hair whipped up in a wind-storm and her flamboyant approach to eating and cooking.

Julia loved to eat, and she expresses it many times to her adorable husband, played mag-

the window and grab a copy of Julia’s cookbook and wallow in the patés and cream sauces and worry about gout later.

We must say a little bit of praise for Adams. She is like a chameleon and her “look” changes with each film appearance. She’s a wonderful actress, can elicit laughs as well as tears and you want to adopt her. As the worshipping Powell, she is both vulnerable and strong and is determined to carry out her plan to write a book as a tribute to her love for Child. She’s so adaptable and may be the next generation’s Streep in the versatility department.

One forgets that Child had a husband, namely Paul Child, played delightfully by Tucci. He’s without his rug on this film and actually appears to be more of a

sexy, masculine man to Julia’s giddy girlishness. No doubt they loved each other dearly and were two halves of a whole. Tucci always has a look of amusement on his face because of Julia’s naturally funny demeanor. It’s a gem of a performance, nuanced and cut with a scalpel. He will be a shoo-in for a Best Supporting Actor nomination.

One of the best and most maturely fun films in a long time, “Julie & Julia” is going to be another smash for Streep like ”The Devil Wears Prada.” The beautiful scenes of Paris and New England are gorgeous. The actors are topnotch, right down to the bit parts. This is a charming and delightful film that will give you many laughs.

CINEMA SHINDY.TV CONTINUED FROM Page B·3

and stories and such. New Year’s eve at The W hotel; a premiere Anthology concert; the doings at East Village’s Basic Kitchen & Bar: downtown San Diego’s key attractions are integral to the company’s shindy.tv, founded in 2007 with a digital perspective to boot.

“A cold beer never looked so good” in a shindy.tv clip featuring Ron Lynch, president of the Tilted Kilt franchises. Hard to tell if Lynch was talking about the real thing or the one on the screen.

“Our overarching mission,” Marcus said, “is to show off all of San Diego eventually. But there’s so much happening downtown, and downtown is growing so much, that [shindy.tv is] just a natural place to show all this growth. It just made sense to have a focus down there.”

And theoretically, the recession gives Marcus a chance to bide his time and perfect his ideas.

“People will be looking for places to go out [when things turn around],” Marcus said, “and those brave souls opening places right now, those are the places that people don’t know about yet.

They’ll want to go to a place like shindy.tv to find out about them.”

The “shows” about the hot spots are one thing — but Marcus said that the support for these items lies in electronic advertising support.

“I haven’t been able to make that happen yet,” he explained, “and I don’t know what it’ll take to make that happen. I’m employing other models as well to where Shindy becomes a por-

tal to culture in San Diego. I’m still trying to figure out the [ideal] model for that.”

Even so, Marcus said, “I try to encourage people to be ahead of the curve by putting Hollywoodstyle video on [their] Website, which will get [them] ahead of everybody in [their] market.

Make the entertainment be a product itself, and that will attract more people to your own product.”

But this is now, and that is then — like in the next few years, when Internet users may face wholesale glitches as bandwidth, or the rate of data transfer, theoretically evaporates.

Cyberspace capacity is finite, and experts say it could run out sometime in 2010 amid demand that already increases 60 percent a year. The problem is compounded by the bandwidth requirements of giants like YouTube and myspace.

Marcus doesn’t seem fazed.

“It’s amazing that we have the bandwidth that we do,” he continued, “and every 18 months, we double the capacity of everything. And I think it’s going to be quite a long time before the entire world gets hooked up to broadband.”

Meanwhile, a wonderful medium is taking root, and unlike in 1928, a global depression doesn’t seem terribly likely to unearth it.

“The costs of production have come way down,” Marcus said.

“Anyone, including myself, can buy a decent professional camera, and you can call yourself a video producer. But what I’m trying to do is bring a different level of creative thinking to corporate application. I’m thinking more like an entertainer.” ■

“Summer Movie Mania” at Liberty Station begins Aug. 1 with “Grease.”

MOVIES CONTINUED FROM Page B·1

The “Summer Movie Mania” lineup and Liberty Station locations are: • Aug. 1 — “Grease,” NTC Landing/Sail Ho Golf Course • Aug. 8 — “Kung Fu Panda,” Ingraham Plaza • Aug. 15 — “Field of Dreams,” South Promenade • Aug. 22 — “Seabiscuit,” Harbor Square behind the Hilton Homewood Suites • Aug. 29 — Concert by The Heroes (a seven-person band that has performed throughout the world with renowned singers Elton John and Carley Smithson and done several shows with Jay Leno), followed by a “viewers choice” movie that will feature either “Top Gun,” “Back to the Future” or “ET.” This final night

of the series takes place at Ingraham Plaza.

The “viewers choice” selection on Aug. 29 will actually be chosen in advance by the public.

Visit www.libertystation.com and click on the Movie Mania logo to cast a vote for “Top Gun,” “Back to the Future” or “ET.” The movie with the most votes wins.

Corvette Diner servers will offer onstage performances before “Grease” and the United States Karate Academy will offer a demonstration before “Kung Fu Panda.”

But plenty more is in store.

“Liberty Station Ace Hardware was generous enough to offer the ‘Best Seat in the House Contest,’ where winners receive free upfront seating to a featured movie for four people in amazing lawn chairs with cup holders, ice buckets, bug spray and a homelike set-up modeled after the

Padres contest with the same name,” event producer Erin Dial said.

Contests will run each movie night and will be held raffle-style.

Contest entry is free. Information on how to participate will be given at the beginning of the feature.

“Based on the turnout from the past event, we are expecting a crowd of 500 people to attend the first night, with the following nights to gather exponentially,” Dial said. “Each location can accommodate large crowds for events such as this, but I encourage people to come early because everyone is so excited that this is happening again.”
