City, Padres past due on agreeing to sale terms for Tailgate Park. Padres have interviewed Rojas, Shildt; close to hiring pitching coach. Suspect arrested in fatal Jamacha-Lomita shooting. Del Mar residents speak against proposal to add fencing along bluffs.

So, Jason, exactly how do you get to Carnegie Hall? What will I do there? Both sold out in an instant. So did the duo's recently added Saturday gig with Rivera at the Belly Up, which is the kickoff event for the just-launched Jason Mraz Foundation. The foundation was created by Mraz, 34, to help bring more attention and support to an array of non-profit organizations he is especially enthusiastic about.

More information is available at: jasonmraz. The organizations Mraz supports are indeed multifaceted. Other beneficiaries of his foundation range from Life Rolls On which assists young people with spinal cord injuries to the True Colors Fund, which was co-founded by Grammy-winning singer Cyndi Lauper and is partly designed to help homeless gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender youth.

These are organizations I really do believe in I do feel education is the through-line for all of these organizations I support. The roots of Mraz's charitable leanings can be traced to his years singing in the high school choir in his hometown in Virginia. Mraz's foundation is so new that it doesn't have its own home base yet. For now, he said, it is operating out of the Los Angeles offices of his manager, Silva, who discovered Mraz more than a decade ago and has carefully nurtured his career ever since.

We'll appoint people inside the foundation who will help monitor incoming funds and outgoing. I'm not sure what my role will be. Mraz describes himself as "a reluctant rock star" who "has battled with my own self-worth since the beginning" of his career.

But he realizes that the fame he has achieved provides a unique opportunity to help others. He also maintains that he'd be lending a helping hand -- albeit on a much smaller level -- even if hadn't become a pop star.

Instead of world tours , I'd be performing in San Diego at Jitters or Java Joe's or Lestat's, or at any place that would have us, and Toca and I would be touring in my car. Because we've been given such acclaim, it makes me feel better to work with people and organizations I like.

So I spent trying on my activist clothes and participating with groups that did extraordinary work. And one of them, right near my home, was Feeding The Soul, whose coffee shop I frequent every day. Real Estate News. Hot Property.
