Two of nine palm trees in distress at the Museum of Contemporary Art on Prospect Street. Pat Sherman By Pat Sherman Rumors were circulating last week that a Village resident might have poisoned a row of palm trees in front of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD). Sources close to the La Jolla Light said the resident was allegedly unhappy that the palms were blocking the ocean view. A representative for the museum confirmed that its consulting arborist inspected the Prospect Street palms, planted by the museum in 1996, and believes they were likely poisoned. “After much research, he found no biotic agent (insect, bacteria or fungus) that signaled it was palm disease,” stated MCASD Marketing Manager Rebecca Handelsman, via e-mail. “He felt the symptoms were consistent with poisoning.” Handelsman said MCASD’s facilities manager told her the museum noticed See Palm Trees, A8

The Seal Deal
Light series explores the pinniped world at Children’s Pool By Ashley Mackin he presence of harbor seals at the Children’s Pool in La Jolla generates a lot of interest ... and a lot of controversy. Visitors and residents alike have questions about the seals, and much misinformation abounds. In the interest of setting the record straight, La Jolla Light reached out to a seal expert for all the information we could gather about them. Marine biologist Monica DeAngelis, with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Federal Advisory Committee, answered

SPECIAL REPORT
1st of 3 Parts our questions and those sent in by our readers. DeAngelis said a surprising amount is still unknown about harbor seals, and much depends on their environment. This will continue to make life at the Children’s Pool a hot topic for
both visitors and scientists. In the first of a three-part series, the Light will address birth facts, the first few weeks of life, the roles of family members, mortality rates, population issues and diet. In the second installment, DeAngelis and representatives from SeaWorld will talk about seal mating and pregnancy, as well as SeaWorld’s involvement with the pinniped (fin-footed mammals) population at the Children’s Pool.

UCSD proposes additional entry for Venter Institute
Second installment of Camp Guide 2013, B16-B17
By Pat Sherman UC San Diego Principal Community Planner Anu Delouri told those attending the March 7 meeting of the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) that UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla and other university officials decided to add an additional entryway to the J. Craig
Venter Institute, in response to concerns from residents about traffic impacts from the project’s lone driveway off Torrey Pines Road. The 45,000-square-foot genetic research laboratory is under construction and scheduled to open in October at the southwest corner of Torrey Pines Road
and La Jolla Village Drive. UCSD officials hope to assuage concerns and ease the amount of traffic entering and exiting off Torrey Pines with the addition of a second entrance on Expedition Way, the road leading to Birch Aquarium. The Expedition Way

FROM SEALS, A1 questions, we’ll bring you a fourth part should the need arise. Questions? E-mail them to: ashleym@lajollalight.com Seal Birth Facts n Weight at birth: 18-26 pounds n Abilities at birth: Swim, see, bark and nurse. n How mother and pup bond: Scientists think they connect by barking. Soon after birth, barks and whimpers can be heard between mother and pup. n Physical characteristics: Seals are born with a soft fur called the lanugo coat. n Pups are born one at a time, there are no reports of multiple births (twins or more).
Visitors to La Jolla can observe harbor seals in a natural environment at the Children’s Pool, aka Casa Beach.
Seal Science ■ Seals insulate themselves using a thick fur coat and layer of blubber. In polar environments, seals restrict blood flow to their skin surface to keep from releasing internal body heat to the ice. In warm environments, the reverse is true. Blood is sent toward the extremities, allowing heat to release into the environment and letting the seal cool its internal temperature. ■ Seals have several natural predators. These include sharks, orcas (killer whales) and polar bears. ■ Humans are the greatest threats to seals. Seals have long been commercially hunted for their pelts, meat and blubber. The Caribbean monk seal was hunted to extinction, with the last record reported in 1952. Today, all pinnipeds in the United States are protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act and there are several species protected under the Endangered Species Act (e.g., Steller Sea Lion, Hawaiian Monk Seal.) Other human threats to seals include pollution, oil spills, industrial pollutants and competition for prey with humans. ■ Seals detect prey with their whiskers. The seal sweeps its upper lip to and fro, using its whiskers to detect fish in murky waters. ■ Seals have large, round eyes that are able to focus both above and below water. ■ Seals are able to hold their breath for a long time during dives, using oxygen stored in the blood and muscles as well as the lungs. ■ Seals can sleep underwater. They can even surface to breathe without awakening. —Sources: sealsworld.com, wikipedia
The First Weeks n Pups will nurse for three to six weeks, but that depends on how safe conditions are. During that time, the pup may be left alone for a few hours while the mother forages. As the pup ages, the mother will spend more and more time out foraging to keep up her strength. n Pups also shed the lanugo coat during the first few weeks and the juvenile coat underneath remains. n Once weaned, the pup is no longer dependent on its mother and the bond dissolves. Juveniles forge for their own food. n After they molt as juveniles, their adult coat grows in, which they have the rest of their lives. Their coats have clinal variance, which means they have lighter coats with darker spots in San Diego, and going north up the coast, seal coats get darker and the spots get lighter. n There is no obvious way to differentiate between males and females, they are approximately the same size and have the similar coats. Only a mother nursing her pup or an up-close inspection would tell. Maternal/Paternal Roles n Fathers have no roles in a seal pup’s life, and neither do mothers

Seals at The Children’s Pool last week. Ashley Mackin photos after the pups are weaned. There is no family structure or herd of any form once the pups are weaned. The mother’s only role is to strengthen the pup enough so it is ready to wean within six weeks. The mother’s milk has a high-fat content and is so nutrient-rich that pups are strong enough and grow enough to forage on their own within two months. “They don’t need each other after that,” DeAngelis said. Mortality Rates n Pup mortality rates vary based on environment, breeding conditions, presence of food, presence of Domoic Acid (a naturally occurring toxin in the ocean) and also, who is counting. Another factor is whether the pup nursed long enough to survive on its own. n Reports range from a 20 percent mortality rate to the occasional year when there is 50 percent pup mortality. n A healthy male seal can live to be 25 years, a healthy female seal can live to be 35.
Diet n The pinniped dines on what is available in the area. In La Jolla, seals eat small fish, octopus and squid. DeAngelis noted in Alaska, seals have been seen hunting for slow moving shrimp. n One catch to this diet is that Domoic Acid bio-accumulates in the fish. While found in small amounts naturally in the small fish, the more fish they eat, the more they ingest. n Harbor seals eat 5-6 percent of their body weight per day. —In the next installment of this series coming in the March 28 issue, learn how Domoic Acid impacts Harbor Seals as well as other ailments that affect them; how they’ve acclimated to humans; and their mating, pregnancy and birthing rituals.

Population Control n Depending on conditions, a female seal will give birth once a year to once every three years. Many Light readers commented on the perceived increase in the seal population at the Children’s Pool. A big part of that is due to the implementation of the 1972 Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), amended in 1994 to include pinniped-fisheries interactions and further define harassment. Prior to then, there was a hunting bounty on seals and sea lions and the population was devastated. Since then, the population has been gradually increasing both in Southern California and the other five recognized stocks (areas where seals live and give birth). The stocks are found in Alaska, the East Coast, Southern California, Washington/Oregon and one in Europe. DeAngelis estimates between 26,000 to 27,000 seals are found in Southern California, and she could only guess at how many worldwide. n Population is also affected by the presence of food, however it is also known that harbor seals do not have discriminating taste and will eat what is available.

Village benches get needed repairs thanks to volunteers, merchants By Pat Sherman For Mindy Barlow, the restoration of more than 30 redwood benches throughout the Village couldn’t happen soon enough. When finished, one of those benches, located on the sidewalk in front of the Coin Shop at 7746 Girard Avenue, will include a plaque in memory of her parents, Peter and Betty Mitchell. The Mitchells opened the Coin Shop in 1964, after relocating to La Jolla from Texas to help Barlow’s mother manage her asthma. Settling in Muirlands, the philatelists (stamp collectors) branched out to coins, operating the business until 1980, when they sold it to Barlow and her then husband. Betty Mitchell ran the shop by herself for several years until her husband retired from his job as an electrical engineer. “She was one of two or three top experts on ancient coins (in the country),” said Barlow of her mother, who passed away in 2011. “My mom would often do appraisals for Lloyd’s of London and Sotheby’s. She was a big deal. “My parents were so excited to see young people getting interested in coins and stamps, to watch them grow up and bring their own children in,” she added. Longtime La Jollan Marjorie McNair is helping the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) restore the benches, with guidance from LJVMA Design Division Chair James Neibling. She volunteered to assist with the project after strolling the Village and noting the bench’s seeming neglect, including peeling varnish and severe discoloration. “They were just practically disintegrating — ready for a nice big bonfire on Halloween at the Rec Center,” McNair said. “I worked for a while with the other bench coordinator. When she (moved on), I stepped forward. My goal is to have every bench in the Village refinished — and we’re close.” Many of the benches were installed by

An example of a wooden bench in need of restoration and one recently restored by volunteers. Photos by Pat Sherman LJVMA predecessor Promote La Jolla. The organization offered residents and business owners the option to sponsor a bench, which included a memorial or tribute plaque. The cost of the bench included money to pay for its future upkeep. However, McNair said only about five or six benches still had money in their maintenance accounts when she got involved last spring. “Sometimes people will buy a bunch, their account runs out and they move out of town. We got on the ball and started calling the lost donors, shall we say, and had a wonderful response,” McNair said, noting that most donors had no problem cutting a $250 check to restore their bench. “It was a big job finding phone numbers and donor names,” she said. “We have every bench in town on a database now and they’re all numbered.” For benches that warrant replacing, the LJVMA is considering an alternative material, since older redwood is scarce and young redwood often has knots and other imperfections. New benches will likely be made of either Douglas fir or Brazillian Ipe, one of the hardest, most durable woods in the world (though more expensive), McNair said. Though the LJVMA considered using recycled plastic benches, a prototype placed near Union Bank in December was deemed too hot to sit on in warm weather, and later melted due to an adjacent trash bin fire. “The good Lord above intervened one night,” McNair said. “That was the end of the test.” Most of the work is being completed by Teak & Deck Professionals of Carlsbad, which is refinishing each bench and applying two coats of protective, penetrating oil (in lieu of varnish, which cracks and peals in the sun). McNair is among a handful of volunteers, including Jack Cheever and the LJVMA’s Leon Chow and Egon Kafka, who are refurbishing 10 “orphan benches,” or those without donors to pay for their restoration. Volunteers remove the slats, then sand and refinish them at home. Moving forward, the LJVMA will conduct regular annual inspections of the benches, restoring each as necessary at a cost of about $50-$60 each, McNair said. “Anyone who owns a bench or purchases a bench in the future is going to have to agree to this maintenance program,” she said. There are about 60 to 70 public benches in the Village, including the iconic, aluminum seahorse-shaped benches.

Intercontinental dust influences California rain and snow
Research Report By LynnE Friedmann
W
inds can carry dust-laden aerosols at altitudes above 16,400 feet from continent to continent. Now a study has shown that airborne dust and microorganisms from as far away as the Sahara desert can enhance precipitation in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. Dust can act as ice nuclei within clouds initiating the freezing of water vapor and water droplets at warmer temperatures than would naturally occur in the absence of these particles. This then falls as rain, snow or hail.
In a study led by UC San Diego and NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) airborne aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometers (ATOFMS) tracked the transport of dusty aerosols through the atmosphere from continent to continent. And other specialized detectors revealed dust ice nuclei feeding clouds and their presence in the collected residue of ice crystals. The data could help western states better understand the future of their water supply as climate change influences how much and how often dust travels around the world and alters precipitation. The study appears in the journal Science. News release at www.bit.ly/Wu8ICG New marker for river blindness infection Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have found a telltale molecular marker for onchocerciasis (also known as
“river blindness”), a parasitic infection that affects tens of millions of people living in tropical regions. The newly discovered biomarker, secreted by disease-causing worms, is detectable in patients’ urine and could form the basis of a portable, field-ready test. There has long been a need for an inexpensive, non-invasive test that can discriminate between active and non-active river blindness infections during treatment campaigns. Current diagnostic methods include the painful cutting of skin snips from patients that can produce unreliable false-positive results. The newly discovered biomarker shows up four to six times higher in urine samples from patients with active infection versus samples from those with non-active infections in which the biomarker level is near zero. This raises hope that a simply urine dipstick diagnostic test might be developed.
The findings appear in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. News release at www.bit.ly/V9UWZD Fluorescent light signals coral health Coral reefs provide the world with rich, productive ecosystems and photogenic undersea settings. In addition, they also contribute an economic boost valued at hundreds of billions of dollars. But their global decline in recent years has lent urgency to the search for new ways to evaluate their health. Scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UCSD report that fluorescence, the dazzling but poorly understood light produced by corals, can be an effective tool for gauging reef health. In the study, a common Indo-Pacific reef-building branching coral, known to be susceptible to temperature stress, was exposed to varying levels of

The frame of the J. Craig Venter Institute off Torrey Pines Road rises above this residential neighborhood near UC San Diego. The 45,000-square foot genetic research laboratory is scheduled to open later this year. Pat Sherman
FROM Venter, A1 noted in the project application. The Venter Institute’s Chief Operating Officer, Robert Freidman, said the building occupancy is 125 people, though there are only 112 parking spaces. He expects about 75 to 80 people to occupy the building at any given time, including UCSD students, many of which Delouri said would walk to the institute from campus. “One of the goals of our moving (near) campus is to enhance those (student) collaborations,” Freidman said. Trustee Fran Zimmerman expressed concerns that the entry off Torrey Pines Road was just a few feet from Allen Field park, which is frequented by families and regular site for youth soccer games. A suggestion was made that at the LJCPA’s April meeting, trustees discuss whether vehicles should only be permitted to access the Venter Institute’s Torrey Pines Road entry via a right turn.
Kitchen Trends to Watch in 2013
Kitchens are one of the most important rooms when people are shopping for a home. Here are some of the new trends for 2013: 1. Simplified design, big open spaces for entertaining. 2. Lighting takes on a larger role with lights being layered for tasks and ambience. 3. Eat in kitchens. Many people are moving away from dining rooms and prefer eating, drinking and interacting with guests in the kitchen. Extra large kitchen islands also help create this entertaining area. 4. Neutral colors are back. Shades of grey, green and neutral woods. Bright colors are being saved for small accent pieces. 5. Decorative range hoods with built-in LED lights almost look like a chandelier often used above for the kitchen island. 6. High Gloss! A single sheet of back-painted glass is popular for back splashes, cabinets and appliance fronts. Glass back splashes are easy to clean, which adds to their popularity. Of course some will miss Grandma’s kitchen with the fridge magnets, cookie jars and pots of African violets, but you can always add your personal touch to create your own style.

water temperature. The coral displayed a rapid decline in fluorescence level at both cold and heat stress. Coldtreated corals fared better and if able to adapt to the new conditions then fluorescence returned to normal levels. Heat-treated corals, on the other hand, tended to eventually “bleach,” a condition in which they lose tiny symbiotic algae that are critical for coral suvival. This is the first study to
measure coral fluorescence before, during, and after stress and provides a new, non-invasive method for testing coral health in the field. Heretofore, determining coral health involved removing reef samples for molecular analyses. The findings are described in Scientific Reports.

FROM Palm Trees, A1 last summer that hedges around the base of the palms were ailing. Symptoms of sickness in the palms followed, including yellowing and withered fronds. A tree at the far right of the property appeared completely dead last week. Handelsman said no one at the museum knows why anyone would want to poison the palms, and nobody has complained to the museum directly about the trees blocking views. Queen palms across Prospect Street at St. James By-the-Sea Church were removed last year, following initial speculation that they also had been poisoned. A rector at the church said at the time that there had been a pattern of “malicious intent” over a twoyear period, and that the palms had been “salted” and had copper spikes nailed to their trunks. Though the church had the trees on a schedule of water and nutritional supplementation recommended by an arborist, after three months their condition failed to improve and the palms were removed — some by the city, and some at the church’s expense. Gretchen Glazener with St. James’ landscape committee told the Light a city arborist ultimately determined that the trees suffered from a fungal disease called “pink rot.”
TGDM_3175_AmayaLJ_LJL_AD.indd 1
University of California farm advisor David Shaw said these palms in front of MCASD look like they have been poorly maintained. Although poisoning may be one cause, Shaw said he would not rule out: problems with irrigation, drainage or container size; improper fertilization; or changes to the root zone. Pink rot fungus could likely infect trees in this condition, he said. Pat Sherman At the time, Glazener said, one of the arborists inspecting St. James’ trees motioned to the palms over at MCASD and said he believed they were likely suffering the same fate. Pink rot (serratia marcescens) is an invasive disease that attacks a tree’s bud tissues, petioles, leaf blades and trunks. It almost always occurs in palms that are under stress and enters through wounds or areas damaged by the removal of leaves and sunburn. David Shaw, a farm advisor with
the University of California Cooperative Extension program, said pink rot is a secondary infection that causes the wood of the tree to rot. “They usually enter through some kind of a wound and then they get in and eat the wood of the tree,” he said. Shaw said it is not hard to determine when someone has done physical damage to a tree, such as cutting its roots, though it can be more difficult and costly for a lab to determine chemical
poisoning. Due to the amount of recent rains in the region, it is not likely the trees are suffering from a lack of water, he noted. “Sometimes a tree might look like it’s poisoned, but it’s not at all,” he said, noting that the real cause may be negligent care, such as an overly acidic soil pH caused by over-fertilizing (which he determined to be the cause of ailing palms in Carlsbad last month). When too much fertilizer is added to soil, Shaw said, the soil
can lock in the nutrients, preventing their absorption by the roots. Shaw said he has heard of numerous methods of poisoning trees, such as adding gasoline or rock salt to the soil, or drilling a hole in the trunk and pumping in weed killer such as Roundup. La Jolla certified arborist Ted Klamerus said it is not rare for people engaged in disputes over the loss of views or property rights to poison, maim, fell or remove other people’s trees in the dead of night. “It’s been documented where (frustrated residents) are spreading Roundup over the fence on a neighbor’s tree. That goes on all the time,” he said, adding that he has heard of judges imposing penalties of $50,000 to $60,000 on those found guilty of willfully destroying another’s tree. Klamerus said pink rot has been increasingly inflicting the region’s queen palms, and arborists are unsure why. Evidence of the infection can be found by removing a section of bark at the base of the tree, and looking for the presence of a pink, viscous substance. The disease can also be introduced by negligent gardeners, who transmit it to healthy trees via dirty gardening tools, Klamerus said. The La Jolla Light will have a county arborist test the soil, and weigh in on the status of the museum’s palms in an upcoming edition.

La Jolla Shores Association elects new board By Ashley Mackin The March 13 meeting of the La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) was one of transition. Four former board members termed out, the 2013 board was elected, and with the promotion of Omar Sinclair, a new Community Relations Officer introduced himself. This was all in addition to the reports from groups such as the Friends of La Jolla Shores. Board members terming out Chair Audrey Keane, Treasurer Ruth Padgett, Terry Winn-Kraszewski and Coco Tihanyi ended their terms of service and appreciation for their volunteer efforts was abundant. Dolores Donovan said of Keane, “Audrey has worked very very hard (and) most of her work is behind the scenes and no one knows what she’s doing, but she’s constantly e-mailing, fixing the website, responding to questions, sending out little announcements about what’s happening at the

Matthew Edwards was elected to a one-year term. Continuing on the board until 2014 (when they would have to run again) are Sue Gellar, Brandon Price, John Kassar and Janie Emerson.

Ashley Mackin FROM SHORES BOARD, A10 the San Diego Police Department for 18 years, with most of that time in the Northern Division, working with community groups. Hesselgesser picked up the Neighborhood Watch torch Sinclair formerly carried “As long as you’ve got some neighbors who are willing to show up and get that Neighborhood Watch program going, we’re encouraging you to do that.” Neighborhood Watch participants are the eyes and
ears of the San Diego Police, he said. The best way to reach Hesselgesser is by e-mail: LHesselgesser@pd. sandiego.gov Friends of La Jolla Shores Coakley-Munk said the Friends is close to receiving the necessary permit to install a new restroom at the north end of Kellogg Park and she is hopeful the remaining required funds will come in soon. She said construction should start in September or October. There has also been discus-
sion of installing showers with hot water, which CoakleyMunk was told would be “a tough fight,” due to the issues involved. For those still hoping for the hot-water showers, Coakley-Munk said, “It’s on the table, (but) I think you’ll have a hard time convincing Parks and Rec.” Next meeting LJSA officers will be appointed at the next meeting, 7 p.m. April 10, Martin-Johnson House, Scripps Institute of Oceanography, 8840 Biological Grade. ljsa.org

Merchants eye vendors for sidewalk revitalization prototype By Pat Sherman During its March 13 meeting, the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) announced that its board is close to selecting a landscape architect to renovate a section of sidewalk in front of the new La Jolla Village Information Center. The board hopes the sidewalk will become a revitalization model to be replicated throughout the Village. The project calls for redesigning the stretch of sidewalk from the Information Center down to La Valencia Hotel, setting a standard for trash receptacles, bike racks, benches, newspaper racks, lighting, tree grates, sidewalk pavers, public art, planters and crosswalk enhancements that the association hopes other merchants will aspire to replicate. LJVMA board president Phil Coller said the organization interviewed four potential landscape architects, and that one has risen to the top, who seemed to “really get the concept and the message.” A board-member selection committee will recommend
Monitors for commercial and nonprofit advertising have been installed at the La Jolla Village Information Center at 1162 Prospect St. Ad revenue generated by the monitors will help pay nearly all the rent on the new space, La Jolla Village Merchants Association board president Phil Coller said. Photos by Pat Sherman a vendor and ask them to present their concept during the April 10 meeting. “This can be a big thing for La Jolla,” Coller said, noting that the project would “set the tone” for the Village as the next Beverly Hills. The LJVMA has yet to determine how much money it has to spend on the project, though Coller estimated it would cost about $150,000. “We have a very high level of commitment from the property owners (who) own the sidewalk to contribute,” Coller said. “If we do it in the way that we saw in this
presentation … it will allow us to go to all the property owners and say this is what we can do in front of your property — this is what we can do in La Jolla.”
In other Merchants Association news
n Tourism grants: The LJVMA is in the second phase of its application for a roughly $48,000 Community Enhancement Grant from the County of San Diego, to be used to promote tourism in the Village. The LJVMA will attend an interview for the funding on April 5. The
board also approved applying for Economic Development Tourism Support grant funds from the City of San Diego. n Info Center update: LJVMA Executive Director Sheila Fortune announced that a packet with rates and specs for advertising in the Information Center is now available. Advertising sales for newly installed TV monitors in the center at 1162 Prospect St. are increasing, she said. However, money is still needed for chairs, computer equipment, conference room doors and other items.
A two-year lease on a Fiat 500 (like the one on display here at the new La Jolla Village Information Center) will be raffled off during the La Jolla Historical Society’s annual Concours D’Elegance auto show, April 5-7. Associate memberships: There was some discussion as to whether associate memberships should be granted to businesses located outside the La Jolla business improvement district, which are granted at the discretion of the board. La Jolla Kayak (based in La Jolla Shores) and San Diegobased Sign Distinction (which created the Information Center sign), have both submitted applications and paid a $350 fee to become associate members. Associate members receive all the perks of regular members, though they are
not permitted to join the board. LJVMA board member Egon Kafka suggested that allowing businesses from outside La Jolla to become members could water down the LJVMA brand, and veer from its mission to promote the Village. “Local businesses get priority, but if we can’t fill it up with outside businesses then we stretch it,” Fortune said. The issue of whether to accept the sign company, as well as other businesses outside greater La Jolla, was tabled until the LJVMA’s April meeting.

Healing laser enhances pet health at La Jolla Veterinary Hospital By Marti Gacioch Whether it’s for arthritis, dermatitis, a surgical incision or dental inflammation, La Jolla Veterinary Hospital is seeing amazing healing benefits for pets treated with K-Laser therapy, according to Dr. Julie Breher, DVM, MPVM. “Laser therapy is appropriate for any inflammatory condition like arthritis; in 90 percent of the cases, we see improvement for dogs that walk better and are stronger,” Breher said. With pet arthritis, the hospital’s three veterinarians adhere to a 3-2-1 protocol. They use the laser on a pet three times a week during the first week, twice a week on the second week, and once during the third week. Then they do monthly or bi-monthly single-dose boosters if needed. Each laser treatment takes 3-5 minutes per site. On a typical large older dog with hip and back problems, the vet will treat the left hip, the right hip and the lower lumbar spine, taking about 15 minutes in all. “We’re still finding more uses for The K-Laser; it’s good for inflammation, and when we use it on an incision post-op, we can usually take the stitches out in seven days, rather than 14,” Breher said. The K-Laser is also used for “hot spots”
(moist dermatitis) frequently caused by allergies. “Hot spots occur when the dog starts scratching and biting at a particular location that may cause enough trauma to induce a secondary infection that gets wet and infected,” Breher said. “We usually put the pet on antibiotics, but now we’re also giving them the laser, which makes a hot spot significantly better in 24 to 72 hours.” The K-Laser also relieves dental treatment inflammation. “We use the laser while they’re under anesthesia, and when I discharge a pet, I see a lot less swelling, and owners say that their pets are more comfortable,” Breher said. “Laser treatments are not harmful and there are no medications required. Furthermore, for holistically minded people, it’s a wonderful alternative to pain pills and extremely cost-effective.” Laser therapy (the application of energy via light into the tissue) has been around since the 1960s, but the Food and Drug Administration didn’t approve it for use on humans and pets until the early 2000s. — La Jolla Veterinary Hospital, 7520 Fay Ave., is now open seven days a week with new Sunday hours from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (858) 454-6155. lajollavet.vetsuite.com

Powerful anti-drug speaker to address La Jolla teens, parents By Sharon Jones La Jolla Cluster Association
A
few weeks ago, there was a party for 13year-olds in La Jolla and it became a drunkfest after the kids started pouring hard liquor. That same weekend, at another La Jolla party, some eighthgraders tried marijuana for the first time. Drug and alcohol use is prevalent among La Jolla’s teenagers, just as it is prevalent among teenagers (and adults) across the country. According to experts, nearly 75 percent of high school seniors have consumed alcohol (more than just a few sips) before graduation. More shocking, more than one-third has done so by the end of eighth grade. According to a 2012 study, six percent of eighth-graders, 17 percent of tenth-graders, and 22 percent of twelfth-graders used marijuana in the past month. Six percent of twelfth-graders said they use marijuana every day. A powerful anti-drug speaker is coming to La Jolla as part of a community-based effort to reduce teen drug and alcohol use. Our surprise guest will speak to the students at La Jolla High

He will address young people’s struggles with peer pressure, self-esteem dilemmas, violence, sex, alcohol, drugs and relationships. As an organizer of the event, I can say you have never seen a presentation like this one. It will open your eyes to the reality and prevalence of drugs in our schools — and the lives of our children. This is a theatrical lecture presentation conceived and performed by a film and television actor. Some of his credits include “All My Children,” “New York Undercover,” “Malcom X” and “Rising Sun.” He gives a graphic tour of his descent into a life of drug and alcohol addiction that left him homeless in 1992. A grant has paid for a portion of the speaking fee. Another $2,000 is still needed. The La Jolla Cluster Association (LJCA) is looking for organizations, companies and individuals to help sponsor the event. If you are interested in supporting this important cause, contact me via the LJCA website at lajollacluster.com
■ What: Theatrical anti-drug/alcohol presentation ■ When: 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 9 ■ Where: La Jolla High School, 750 Nautilus St. ■ Tickets: $5 ■ Website: lajollacluster.com The talk to parents is open to the community. Tickets are $5 and available on the LJCA website. According to the Centers for Disease Control, reducing underage drinking will require community-based efforts to monitor the activities of youth and decrease their access to alcohol. Alcohol is the most commonly used and abused drug among youth in the United States — more than tobacco and illicit drugs — and is responsible for more than 4,700 youth deaths annually. Teenagers’ alcohol use has adult support — nearly 40 percent say they got the alcohol from an unrelated person of legal drinking age. More than 21 percent say they received alcohol from a parent, guardian or other adult family member.

Jaywalking story draws readers’ comments n Re: ‘Jaywalkers Beware?’ Definitely. Beware of a broke city seeking revenues from any possible source available. “No new taxes,” you say? Nooooooooooooo ... Just a $100 tax for crossing the street “wrong”? When the absurdity of something bothers you, look at “revenue” for your answer, because LOGIC simply doesn’t apply when dealing with the government (or the school system, but that’s another story). In “jaywalking,” people (generally) assume the risk and look. FAR too many people enter a crosswalk, ASSUMING they’re seen, when very often, cars, distractions, darkness,reflections, glare ... too many things going on, etc., hamper or vie for a driver’s view and attention. I, for one, almost never use a crosswalk, and if I do, I use the same, only-when-it’s-clear attitude. Believing cars will stop — or even SEE you — is simply asking to be hit. Hope you’re all enjoying everyone you voted for, and all the “no new taxes,” too! Rand Hogen La Jolla n (In last week’s cover story about pedestrian violations, you define jaywalking as) “Jaywalking: Walking in between two controlled intersections — an intersection controlled by traffic lights or signage. (That can include walking across the middle of the street between two intersections.) ” I don’t think the part in the parentheses is accurate – unless both intersections are controlled by traffic signals. This is CVC 21955: “Between adjacent intersections controlled by traffic control signal devices or by police officers, pedestrians shall not cross the roadway at any place except in a crosswalk.”
A person jaywalking across the street from the La Jolla post office at the corner of Wall Street and Ivanhoe Avenue. Ashley Mackin Source: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/ d11/vc21955.htm So, unless the mid-block place a pedestrian is crossing the roadway is “between adjacent intersections controlled by traffic control signal devices,” it’s not jaywalking, and it’s not illegal. I live in La Jolla and travel all over it by car, motorcycle, bicycle and foot. Believe me, the problem is not the pedestrians. The problem is motorists speeding and unwilling to yield to others. I can walk and bike without issues, but I know my legal rights (including what is and what is not “jaywalking”) and how to safely assert them. If motorists weren’t speeding and were more courteous, that level of knowledge and assertiveness would not be required to walk and bike in La Jolla safely and comfortably. Serge Issakov La Jolla

LA JOLLA LIGHT - march 21, 2013 - Page A19
FROM Letters, A18 n I don’t doubt that many pedestrians killed in traffic accidents are technically “at fault” according to our laws, and our auto-centric interpretation of those laws. But the idea that a street is where cars belong, and pedestrians should fear to tread, is a relatively recent one. The very concept of “jaywalking” is a 20th century creation of the auto lobby, as explained by Peter Norton in his book “Fighting Traffic: The Dawn of the Motor Age in the American City,” and also in a recent article by Sarah Goodyear titled “The Invention of Jaywalking” at theatlanticcities.com/ commute/2012/04/inventionjaywalking/1837 Blaming and ticketing pedestrians is counterproductive and wrong-headed. I would venture that greater than 85 percent of cars travelling in La Jolla as you read this are exceeding the speed limit. And probably 50-75 percent of motorists habitually don’t stop at stop signs, or don’t stop at red lights before turning right. The typical motorist is a willful and flagrant law-breaker. Yet when this motorist, who should know full well
that he or she is in charge of a lethal weapon, hits and kills a pedestrian or cyclist, more often than not the motorist walks away and is not charged. We need a change in attitude regarding the operation of motor vehicles, and along with this a retooling of our streets to decrease the dangers to all users — pedestrians, cyclists and motorists. John Tellew La Jolla
Thoughts on divers and the seal rope I do not appreciate the diver’s group at the Children’s Pool and their actions against the seals. They say they are for joint-use of the beach for people and seals, however, it seems they are doing all they can to get rid of the seals. The divers encourage people to go beyond the rope on the beach meant to keep people at a distance between mother seals and their pups, flushing seals off the beach. If the divers wanted the seals, they would tell people to stay behind the pupping season rope. Ruth Tessel La Jolla
One of La Jolla Village’s remaining 100-year eucalyptus trees removed By Pat Sherman One of the few, original eucalyptus trees planted in La Jolla Village by land speculators and La Jolla founding fathers Frank Botsford and George Heald was removed March 18. Botsford and Heald planted some 2,000 trees, including eucalyptus, pine, cedar and palm, shortly after laying out the initial La Jolla Park subdivision in 1887, according to an article by La Jolla Historical Society historian Carol Olten. Another of the duo’s now more than 100-year-old eucalyptus trees still stands across Ivanhoe Avenue, a reminder of their gift to the Village. Because La Jolla’s water supply was scarce at the time, many of their original plantings perished shortly after their introduction, though the eucalyptus thrived, according to Olten.
One of the few, original eucalyptus trees planted in La Jolla Village is removed March 18 at 7835 Ivanhoe Ave. Pat Sherman Though beautiful to behold, the towering, majestic trees pose a public threat. Several of the old trees in La Jolla and
elsewhere in San Diego have either fallen over or lost limbs, causing injury to property and people. Trees have fallen in front of the Wall Street post office and by Mary, Star of the Sea Catholic Church (the latter crushing a car). The tree stood at 7835 Ivanhoe Ave., the former site of Harman Realtors (now located on Herschel Avenue). Property owner and La Jolla resident Horacio Valeiras told the La Jolla Light the city has approved replacing the eucalyptus with two other trees, of an as-yet-undetermined species. Valeiras is remodeling the two-story, 1981 office building there to open the interior space and alter the front and rear facades. The remodel should be complete and replacement trees planted sometime this summer, Valeiras said.

Jayne Karen Brown Singer 1945 – 2013
Jayne Singer died on March 3, 2013, at 67 years of age, of heart failure in La Jolla, California. She was born June 19, 1945, in Queens, New York, to Ida and Irving Brown. After graduating William Cullen Bryant High School in 1962, she received her B.A. from State University of New York in Buffalo in 1966 where she excelled as a cheerleader. She also attended Santa Clara University and University of California San Diego. Jayne’s professional career was primarily that of an English teacher, including Creative Writing and Public speaking at the junior high level in both New York and California. She also worked as a Lab Technician in one of Denmark’s major hospitals.
Other positions held were that of Social Director at Point Loma Tennis Club in San Diego from 1969 to 1972 and Public Relations Director at Creative Enterprises in Santa Barbara from 1972 to 1974.

Sebastian Capella 1927 – 2013
Early in the morning of Friday, March 15, 2013, Sebastian Capella, world renowned Spanish impressionist painter and highly acclaimed portrait artist, passed away at Scripps Memorial in La Jolla while surrounded by family and close friends. A resident of La Jolla for over 40 years, Mr. Capella has been called a modern 17th century
master and is considered one of most distinguished and talented portrait painters of the last century. Born and raised in Sagunto, a historic town in the Province of Valencia, Spain, Mr. Capella received extensive academic training in the School of Fine Arts of Valencia, being awarded the title of Professor of Fine Arts in 1955. After further studies in Spain and at the Paris School of Fine Arts, Mr. Capella relocated his family to the United States in 1966 when offered the opportunity to teach Fine Arts at the University of San Diego, which he did until 1973. In the early 1970’s, he began holding classes at his private studio in La Jolla, and continued to do so for over 40 years, building a loyal following of students while continuing to paint still lifes, landscapes and portraits daily. He also traveled back to Spain each year, spending the spring or summer painting in his Spanish studio in Valencia. Heavily influenced by Velasquez, Sargent and Van Gogh, his work is most often compared to another brilliant impressionist Spanish master, Joaquin Sorolla. Mr. Capella is known widely for his portraits, including the King and Queen of Spain and other members of the Spanish Royal Family, as well as
local and international dignitaries, celebrities, families, and individuals. His work has been shown in exhibitions around the world, where he received dozens of awards and commendations, including being awarded First Prize at the National Portrait Seminar in Washington, DC, in 1983, being given the title of Master Painter by the San Diego Portrait Society, and being named to the Royal Fine Arts Academy of San Carlos in Valencia, one of the highest commendations given by Spain. Mr. Capella is survived by his wife, Margarita; sister, Rosa; three daughters, Rosa, Margarita and Thais; two sons, Sebastian and Rick; and eight grandchildren, Toni, Thais, Cayetano, Shea, Julia, Kristen, Sofia and Sebastian. His family resides in California and Spain. A memorial service will be held on Friday, March 22, 2013, at 10:30 a.m. in The Immaculata Catholic Church at the University of San Diego. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the National Multiple Sclerosis Foundation (www. nationalmssociety.org).

Water polo star hopes to join Vikings team By Michael Ragovin La Jollan Connor Carpenter, an eighthgrader at All Hallows Academy, is considered one of the best water polo players under age 14 in the state of California. He will enter La Jolla High School in the fall, and his immediate goal is to play for the Vikings and then go on to play water polo at USC. Don’t bet against it. Carpenter has played with the La Jolla Shores Water Polo Club since he was 9 years old. For the last two years, he’s been on an elite national championship team that won gold medals at the Turbo Nationals in Houston, and in Bloomington, Ind. Last summer, his team won gold at the Junior Olympics at Stanford. Last fall, Carpenter won the Jody Campbell Sportsmanship award at the Turbo National Championships at the University
of Michigan. He said he started playing water polo at the suggestion of his dad. At first he wasn’t interested and he couldn’t swim very well. But, as time went on, Carpenter got hooked. He even became willing to put in the extra time to take swimming lessons. His team practices from 6:30 to 8:30 a.m. four days a week. He said he also plays soccer and lifts weights to help him kept fit. “I discovered I had a natural ability for water polo,” he said, adding that he draws inspiration from Miami Heat basketball player LeBron James because, “He leaves it all out on the court.” Carpenter leaves it all out in the pool; that’s clear when you look at the result of his efforts.

She also said the friendliness of La Jolla is a reminder of the sense of togetherness she experienced in younger days. “We have wonderful research going on here,” she said. “Most people don’t realize it, but we are one of the (most) important research centers in the country. It’s funny they don’t connect San Diego with it, but we have Qualcomm, we have biological research, we have the Salk Institute.” Because jobs were limited during the Great Depression, Adler said she opted

The beginning of her career also marked the beginning of her marriage. She met her husband Norman in her senior year of high school, and kept in touch with him through college.

UCSD Art Gallery would ‘Love your Company’ at unique exhibition By Will Bowen If you like optical illusions and how the eyes sometimes play tricks on the mind, then you will enjoy the exhibit that opened Feb. 21 at the University Art Gallery (UAG) in the Mandeville Center on the UC San Diego campus. The whole gallery white space, including the floor and ceiling, has been integrated into the exhibit. There is a small theater stage in the middle of the floor and what appears to be another small stage hanging upside down from the ceiling. Around the walls are moveable panels of lemon yellow and lime green material stretched on rectangle PVC frames. Because of their bright colors, these panels cast a strange glow throughout the room. Patrons are invited to move the panels at their whim to create their own configurations and influence the lighting. SEE ART, B3

FROM ART, B1
La Jolla Cultural Partners
On the floor, throughout the room, are life-size photographs of the human figures used in architectural models. These photographs are printed on a special paper and peeled up from the floor at precarious angles. From across the room, it appears as if the photographs are either real people or mannequins or at least three-dimensional in nature. On opening night it was hard to tell who were the patrons or the professional photographers taking pictures of the exhibit or which were the models. It was quite a surprise to see the bubble of illusion burst when one got up close to the photographs and realized that’s just what they were — two-dimensional oversized photographs. At a certain point during the opening, three actors strode into the center of the exhibit and began a reading of what appeared to be a postmodern made-fortelevision play, which was written by Ethan Breckenridge, the artist behind the exhibit. Breckenridge created the concept of the show, which is called “A Project” with

The opening and the short play are a part of a series of events that will be happening in the gallery until May 10, when the exhibit closes. n Thursday, March 28 at 4 p.m., there will be a premiere screening of a video produced by Breckenridge, which will be shown continuously in the gallery at the back of the exhibit hall thereafter.

the gallery at uag@ucsd.edu to be considered. There is a higher theoretical question behind the photographic exhibit, video, and all the events that are planned. It’s all about the question of hospitality and engagement — all the new ways art galleries are experimenting with to bring potential art patrons to their shows, including the use of social media. Art galleries are also experimenting with trying to design the impact they

The overall aim of this exhibit is to provide a forum for thinking about all the complexities involved in these issues. When one considers the prominent role the UAG used to play in the art life of the La Jolla community 10 or 20 years ago, and compares it to the narrow elitist orbit it spins around today, it gives one pause for thought.

Aroma Café: Dine, unwind and catch up with friends By Kelley Carlson raving sweets? Need a fancy cheese platter for an impromptu party? For Aroma Cafe, addressing such issues is a piece of cake. With a full-service bakery facility — in addition to a kitchen — Aroma caters to everyone, from dine-in customers to wedding parties. Many people come into the restaurant to relax. Some of them kick back on the patio and soak up the sun. Others prefer the inside atmosphere with black-and-white pictures of mid-20th century entertainment icons such as Marilyn Monroe, Natalie Wood, The Beatles and Henry Fonda hanging from the caramel-colored walls. Regardless of where they sit, nearly all of them ogle the pastries in the glass case, which are creative works of art by Didier Pellerud that are almost too pretty to eat. Pellerud, who co-owns the restaurant with Ben Tashakorian and Oved Haskal, has more than 35 years of experience in the kitchen and specializes in creating specialty cakes and cheese platters, often in whimsical designs. Tashakorian said other local bakers rave about Pellerud’s Napoleons — moist layers of puff pastry and cream. Along with Napoleons, other items in the case include colorful tarts topped with berries and decadent chocolate mousse with delicate candy shavings. The most unique item is the Almond Croissant, and Tashakorian pointed out that he has never found another one like it in San Diego. To accompany the pastries, there is an espresso bar that offers an array of mochas, lattes and macchiatos. Yet there’s much more at Aroma besides sweet fare. It has a 43-page menu that it shares with its neighbor, BarFly, and blends California cuisine with Italian, Middle Eastern and French influences. But at Aroma, the emphasis is on the pizzas and

Exotic Ahi Tuna Salad features pineapple and seared ahi tuna strips covered with teriyaki glaze and sesame seeds, on a bed of romaine, peppers, parmesan and orange vinaigrette.

n This week’s recipe: Aroma Café’s Crème Brulee the cafe- and deli-style foods. Unlike BarFly, Aroma serves breakfast and features benedicts and egg specialties that are a bit different from a typical breakfast joint. The Southwestern egg dish includes avocado, tomatoes, cilantro, red onions, black beans and Pepper Jack cheese, and comes with tortillas and a side of salsa. The Tuscan egg specialty incorporates sautéed mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, grilled chicken and melted brie. Fresh fish and meats — including cold cuts from the Boar’s Head Company — arrive daily. Executive Chef Sean Sommer utilizes them in various dishes, such as the Exotic Ahi Tuna Salad with pineapple and seared ahi tuna strips covered with teriyaki glaze and sesame seeds, on a bed of romaine, peppers, parmesan and orange vinaigrette. The proteins are also highlighted in entrees such as Schnitzel — a boneless and breaded chicken breast served with fries, hummus, Mediterranean salad and pita bread. “Nothing is frozen,” Tashakorian emphasized. The pizza dough is also fresh and it’s used to create one-of-a-kinds, such as the Chicken Shawarma and the Prosciutto with artichokes, green onions and garlic.

Master Sommelier to discuss power entertaining at Community Center America’s first Master Sommelier, Eddie Osterland, will be the next guest of the Distinguished Speaker series at the La Jolla Community Center. Osterland, an internationally acclaimed expert in the culinary arena of food and wine, will speak at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 28 at the center, 6811 La Jolla Blvd. Osterland holds the degree of Diplôme Universitaire d’Aptitude à la DÊgustation (DUAD) from the UniversitÊ de Bordeaux in France. After completing his studies there, in 1973 he passed the Master Sommelier Diploma in London on his first attempt! From there, he became head sommelier at the Hôtel de la Poste in Beaune, Burgundy, France — an American running a French wine cellar! He has been featured as a wine expert by Esquire and Jet Set magazines and was the director of trade education for the Interna-
tional Wine Center in New York City. Osterland is the author of “Power Entertaining: Secrets to Building Lasting Relationships,� “Hosting Unforgettable Events,� “Closing Big Deals from America’s 1st Master Sommelier,� and “Wine and the Bottom Line.� He served as the wine editor for Restaurant Business magazine for a decade. The evening will begin with a 5 p.m. reception and refreshments. The lecture follows at 6 p.m. when Osterland will discuss the fine art of power entertaining, citing strategies that set one apart, the new cutting-edge wines to be served, food and wine pairings that are the most successful at parties, and the items that distinguish you from your peers when it comes to wine. A Q&A will top off the night, 6:45-7:15 p.m. The event is complimentary with limited seating. RSVP: (858) 459-0831 or e-mail info@ljcommunitycenter.org

www.lajollalight.com FROM 10 QUESTIONS, B1 The original bookshop was a small office with a patio between two buildings at 7527 La Jolla Blvd., next to Margaret’s Cleaners. At some point we re-modeled part of the building so that artist Francoise Gilot could have her art studio adjacent to the bookshop that reminded her of Paris. In 1991, we moved to our current location at 7461 Girard Ave. next to The Pannikin Cafe. Dennis Wills If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? I would have retained the understated, classy and elegant atmosphere of The Whaling Bar at La Valencia Hotel, as it has served as La Jolla’s version of New York’s Algonquin Hotel, both frequented by generations of literary and film legends. Who or what inspires you? In La Jolla specifically, the humanitarian films of La Jolla filmmaker Susan Polis Schutz; and the creative animated films Spike Decker assembles for Spike and Mike’s Festival of Animation. In general, acts of kindness performed by quiet, humble, unassuming citizens. But mainly, the profound, epiphanous mystery of existence. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? My list would be Oxford philosopher/historian Sir Isaiah Berlin; Cambridge philosopher/mathematician and Nobel Laureate Bertrand Russell; Greek philosophers Socrates and Plato; filmmakers Frank Capra and John Ford; actors Gregory Peck and Jimmy Stewart. It would be fun for Socrates and Plato to see how some of the ethical issues raised in Platonic dialogues may be conveyed to millions through film 2,000 years later. What are your favorite movies of all time? “The Razor’s Edge” (1946), with Tyrone Power and Gene Tierney, a WWI aviator’s search for God; “Lost Horizon” (1937), with Ronald Colman and Jane Wyatt, a utopian community based on kindness; “The Best Years of Our Lives” (1946) with Fredric March and Myrna Loy, the dilemmas of returning WWII veterans; “Sergeant York” (1941), with Gary Cooper and Joan Leslie, a WWI soldier’s dilemma of duty to God versus duty to country; “The Dawn Patrol” (1938), with Errol Flynn and David Niven, WWI aviators’ war angst. Added to these would be all films of Frank Capra, especially, “It’s a Wonderful Life,” (1946); and the films of John Ford. What is it that you most dislike? That would be intolerance or impatience within anyone, especially myself. What is your most-prized possession? A tie between these two items: A copy of the late Oxford philosopher Sir Isaiah Berlin’s “Four Essays on Liberty” inscribed to me; and the copy of W. Somerset Maugham’s “Ashenden,” his vignettes about his work with British Intelligence in Switzerland and Russia during WWI, inscribed and mailed to Raymond Chandler in La Jolla in early l950. What do you do for fun? Share some red wine with retired homicide detectives Tom Basinski and Bob Conrad, and baseball historian Bill Swank, at the boat in front of the bookshop, about once every four to six weeks; as well as some wine or Pabst Blue Ribbon with my pals at the shop at the end of the day. Second, drive my 1930 Ford Phaeton up to The Kraken in Cardiff, and/or The Whaling Bar, a few times a year. What is your philosophy of life? Continue to wonder, gratefully and humbly, about the profound mysteries of existence. What would be your dream vacation? I would drive over to Monument Valley and wander around, by truck and on foot, the settings used by director John Ford for his westerns like “Fort Apache” (1948) and “Stagecoach” (1939).

Basically, if it couldn’t be fixed with picture wire, duct tape, or hair scrunchies (a grossly under-utilized tool if there ever was one), it remained, by financial necessity, broken. I was also fairly fond of brute force — the old kickthe-radio theory — that fixes far more things than you might think. For example,
thwacking the aerator on my kitchen faucet with a large wooden spoon shaped it up instantly. And it felt so good. One long-ago day, I had the good fortune to meet Dale who ran Hammer & Nails Hardware. He convinced me I could actually repair things that had heretofore been out of my exceedingly limited range: rewiring lamps, salvaging broken garden hoses, and once, crawling under my house (a nasty rat and spider-filled underworld that is my personal vision of hell) on my stomach and pouring a gallon of sulfuric acid into the clean-out pipe to clear my drains.

At the time, I suspected that the drain project was Dale’s way of ensuring I never came back — or at least not until I had finished my two years of rehab at the local burn center. But he was always unfailingly optimistic in my abilities to fix things that he knew I couldn’t afford to hire someone to do for me. “Oh, you can do it, Inga!� he’d counter to my dubious expression, and give me step-by-step instructions along with critical safety tips. Goggles, a mask, and protective clothing were de rigueur for the drain project, but profoundly clear on my innate lack of mechanical talent, he often advised a fire extinguisher as well. Marrying Olof ultimately (mercifully?) put the Single Woman Home Repair School out of business. Olof still suspects I married him for his skills with a sewer augur (which IS partially true). He himself grew up working in his own family’s hardware store where he maintains that in addition to learning how to mix paint and make keys, his sum total sex education occurred in the pipe fitting department. “Dad,� he remembers
saying one day when he was around 10, “why do they call these pipe fittings male and female?� And Dad, a man of few words, particularly in the sex education department, gruffed, “Well, why do you THINK?� and walked away. Olof studied the fittings a little longer and had a revelation. Both Hammer & Nails and Meanley’s were instrumental in my two sons’ engineering educations. Summer camps for two kids usually cost more than I would make in a week as a clerical, so much of the time, I allotted them $10 a day in building supplies: pulleys, ropes, nails, boards, etc. and while I was at work, they built rustic tree forts, rope bridges, swings, bucket systems and even ziplines between the big trees in our front yard. (I only mention this now because the statute of limitations for felony child endangerment has passed.) Ironically, I ended up getting it all back and more years later when Meanley’s gave my younger son a $5,000 merit scholarship for his first year of college. Meanley’s, of course, is

the ultimate old-fashioned general store, the place that has everything you can’t find anywhere else. And if they don’t have it, they’ll order it. And if it’s the wrong thing, they’ll take it back, without making you drive out to Clairemont and stand in an endless soulcrushing returns line. I consider shopping at my local hardware store, if nothing else, an investment in my spiritual health. I fear in this era of smaller service-oriented businesses being squeezed out by bigbox stores that the Meanleys and Hammer & Nails of the world could end up distant memories. I’m trying to even imagine my life, particularly when I was a single woman, without these two stores. The lovely Dale has long since gone to the Big Nail Bin in the Sky, but I would never have gotten his faith in me, oneon-one instructions, and endless patience from Home Depot. Please, fellow La Jollans, shop local — while you still can. — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lightheartd looks at life every other week in La Jolla Light. Reach her by e-mail at inga47@san.rr.com

Leona Adler’s Guide to Reaching 100 ■ It’s a matter of luck and good medical care. Advances in medical technology have increased longevity for everyone. ■ A sturdy, energetic family provides the genes and habits for living an active life. ■ Have stimulating intellectual and cultural pursuits, and continue with creativity through retirement years. ■ Have warm and enduring social contacts and continue with friends and relatives through retirement. ■ Use your physical abilities to do as much you can for yourself. I keep moving. Naturally after many falls, my physical ability is limited, but I am pretty determined to keep going. ■ Pace yourself. I lie down when I am tired or when my joints ache. ■ Don’t over plan. I know I can’t do everything in one day. ■ As we age, we have to adapt to change ... a cane or a walker or whatever. ■ Drink a glass of sherry about 3 p.m. and usually sip wine with dinner. ■ Quality of life is just as important as the number of years. I enjoy life. ■ I still think in terms of past, present and future. ■ Don’t sweat the small stuff.
FROM 100 YEARS OLD, B1 She continued to teach at various schools, taking a brief break to raise her children, John and Louise. When she resumed her teaching career, she taught biology and sex education until 1972. She said it was through her sex education classes that Adler witnessed the change in sexual attitudes and relationships. “There was a rather sudden change between 1968 and 1969 … the change was more openness. In the movies, there was a sudden jump at that time (that) you could feel.” However, she said there is less of that openness now, possibly due to the advent of the Internet. “For me, the Internet is not the same thing as eye-to-eye contact and feeling each other’s psyche or whatever, face to face,” she said. “It’s a different thing.” As opposed to turning to the Internet to keep her mind sharp, Adler said she reads and explores cultural events. She likes to read about politics and attend concerts at her Pacific Regents

home, and particularly enjoys the opera, symphony and live theater. Her appreciation for different cultures comes from traveling the world and seeing so many of them. Through her husband’s many jobs — including lawyer, executive for Columbia Records and agent in the antitrust division of the U.S. government — the Alders traveled to London, Japan, Australia, South Africa, the Caribbean, Hawaii and others. Her knowledge of the
world helped give her perspective on the United States, and how it is has changed since she was a child. “In the earlier part of the 20th century, there was a feeling of togetherness even though we had immigration from all over. I feel that maybe the biggest change is we’re flying apart as a country. The country is not pulling together the way it did in my day,” she said. Noting that she lived through six wars, she added, “All the men in the family,

all of our male friends, they were in the army. Now it’s other people’s sons and other people’s brothers. You don’t even know who is in the army now.” However, the welcoming attitude of La Jollans reminds her of the closeness she fondly remembers. When she walks down the street, she talks to people, and people say hello and make eye contact. “What I like about it (here) is the people, they are so friendly,” she said.

La Jolla Playhouse gala features The Flaming Lips performance
T
he La Jolla Playhouse Gala on March 9 was highlighted by an intimate performance by The Flaming Lips, a Grammy Award-winning experimental rock band, whose music was the basis for the Playhouse’s 2012 world-premiere musical, “Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.” The evening began with a cocktail party outside the Sheila and Hughes Potiker Theatre lobby of the Joan and Irwin Jacobs Center for La Jolla Playhouse. Guests then moved into the theater where they had a dinner catered by chef Jeffrey Strauss of Pamplemousse Grille. Afterward, Playhouse Artistic Director Christopher Ashley and Managing Director Michael S. Rosenberg presented an overview of the Playhouse’s past season and a taste of what’s to come in 2013, as well as a tribute to some Playhouse patrons who died this year. Guests next heard a spoken-word performance by students in the Playhouse’s in-school InterAction program, followed by an intimate concert by The Flaming Lips. The evening continued with an after party and dancing. n See more photos at lajollalight.com

Catered by Hennessey’s Tavern, the menu consisted of classic Irish fare, including corned beef and cabbage, Reuben sandwiches and shepherd’s pie. Visitors from other churches — and even two priests from Ireland — turned up for the party, which included music from trio Dicey Riley. More than 200 people filled the hall, donning green and enjoying the one day when everyone is Irish. — Ashley Mackin

New musical asks: How low will Monty go to make it to the top? Let’s Review
By Elizabeth Marie Himchak
A
talented and versatile cast combined with a witty, though dark, story and visually appealing set make The Old Globe’s “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” a musical worth seeing. The comedy runs through April 14 and begins with the cast telling audience members to flee before all
the bloodshed begins. But the audience should not leave or worry about the killings humorously contrived by Monty Navarro (Broadway veteran Ken Barnett), who is offing his estranged D’Ysquith relatives so he can become the ninth Earl of Highhurst. The eight male and female relatives — all wonderfully played by Tony Award-winner Jefferson Mays — stand in Monty’s way to fortune. He would be

among the aristocracy in early 20th century England except for one unforgiveable error — in the D’Ysquith family’s opinion — committed by his recently deceased mother. She fell in love with and married a Castilian. Therefore, she and her son were disinherited. Monty learns of his ancestry through his mother’s longtime friend, Miss Shingle (Rachel Izen), who tells him after the funeral about his D’Ysquith relations. Though his initial outreach to the family is innocent (he informs them of his existence and requests assistance in obtaining work) the threatening rebuke by cousin Asquith D’Ysquith Jr., combined with a taunting comment by riches-seeking girlfriend Sibella Hallward (Lisa O’Hare) set Monty on a course of murder so he can ascend to ownership of the family’s estate. Almost all the killings occur in the first act, which makes it a tad long at around 90 minutes. The second act concludes in an hour and seems to move at a faster pace. Though it is
revealed early on that Monty is being tried for murder, there is a mystery: Which relative is he accused of killing? And is it a death for which he is responsible? While Monty is a coldblooded killer, Barnett portrays him in such a sympathetic way the audience wants him to succeed. Plus, the deaths are so creative and comical that one cannot help but look forward to seeing how the next unfolds. As for Mays playing all the deceased, he shows off his versatility. At times, mere minutes separate the distinct personas. Other notable performances include O’Hare as Sibella and Chilina Kennedy as cousin Phoebe D’Ysquith — who luckily is behind Monty in the line of succession and therefore safe from his murderous intentions. Together, they create the show’s love triangle. Both women play their roles convincingly — materialistic and self-absorbed in Sibella’s case, reserved and ladylike in Phoebe’s — and with Monty stage one of the show’s best numbers, “I’ve Decided to Marry You.”
Monty Navarro (Ken Barnett) tries to keep girlfriend Sibella (Lisa O’Hare), left, and love interest Phoebe (Chilina Kennedy) from meeting in the musical comedy ‘A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder,’ playing at The Old Globe through April 14. Henry DiRocco
In addition to the performances, the set designed by Alexander Dodge deserves mention. Reflective of music halls popular at the time, a stage has been built onto the stage, creating a venue for the various scenes, increasing the audience’s feeling that it is watching a show unfold, and giving Monty the ability to step away from the action and address
the audience directly. The technique is very effective and allows for quick scene changes while action continues on the main stage. — “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” is on the Shiley Stage at The Old Globe Theatre in Balboa Park, matinees and evenings through April 14.

La Jolla filmmaker to premiere TV pilot at L.A. festival By Ashley Mackin La Jolla filmmaker Kai Collins and her writing partner, Deena Adar, will premiere their comedic television pilot “thirty*ish*” at the NewFilmmakers L.A. Film Festival on March 23. It was created through their self-established production company Quiet Duke. “Ideally, we’ll use the pilot as a calling card to get people more familiar with our writing and our brand of comedy, and we’d love to sell the project,” Collins said. The pilot explores the humor behind not meeting the expectations some set for themselves upon entering their 30s. Collins describes “thirty*ish*” as HBO’s “Girls” meets the 1987 drama “thirtysomething.” “We’re writing about situations that are recognizable, and maybe the humor is coming from how awkward and uncomfortable it is, or how (you might think) ‘uh, I’ve been in that situation’ or ‘I’ve dated that person’ or ‘that is me,’” Collins explained. “We’re trying to
Kai Collins reach beyond your standard sitcom and draw upon really personal experiences, as well as experiences of friends and family who are close to us, who’ve shared what they are going through.” What they might be going through is a relationship falling apart or parenting struggles or, as Collins puts it, “just having a sense of realizing you’re a grownup and wondering how that happened.” The impetus for the cablenetwork hopeful was a frustrated conversation between Collins and Adar about a project they were working on that wasn’t going anywhere. Worried
Scenes from the pilot episode of ‘thirty*ish*’ from La Jolla filmmaker Kai Collins. they were on the wrong path, they started discussing the expectations, dreams and hopes they had for where they thought would be — and how they weren’t meeting them. They immediately started writing the pilot for “thirty*ish*” based on the questions they were asking themselves. Questions like, “Why does it take three months to get together with friends — when everyone is so busy with kids and work — and we used to just ride our bikes over to our friend’s
house and get together.” “So it went from us tearing our hair out in the morning, frustrated, to a matter of hours later having a complete pilot outlined,” Collins said, They had actors committed to the project soon after, and took that as a sign they were back on track. Having written viral videos and short sketches in the past (some have received thousands of hits by viewers and are available at quietduke.com/work), Collins took this as an opportunity to express her

smart sense of humor. “We try to transcend limitations and boundaries and what you might expect two 30-year-old women to write about,” she said, “We’re really drawn to reaching beyond the typical setup of set-up-punchline.” She said her evolved sense of humor came from watching people and the encouragement she got while at Muirlands Middle and La Jolla High schools. She participated in drama programs at both schools, but it was at La Jolla High
that she worked with nowretired drama teacher Walter Stewart. Calling Stewart “my favorite teacher — ever,” she said, “In terms of the quality of instruction I was receiving and the materials he encouraged us to pursue, it was a great experience and definitely instilled a sense of creativity and love for the theater.” Collins carried those lessons to college, studying theater and participating in improv troupes such as Chicago’s Second City. She now lives in Los Angeles.
Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary honors La Jollans for community service By Pat Sherman La Jollans Sherry Ahern and Kathryn Stephens were among those honored for their leadership and community service March 8, during the 48th annual Salvation Army Women of Dedication Luncheon at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina on Harbor Island. Ahern is founder of the La Jolla Art and Wine Festival benefiting La Jolla elementary and middle schools, and was also instrumental in founding the Pediatric Diabetes Research Center at UC San Diego. She is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Channel 10 News Leadership Award and City of Hope’s Mother of the Year award. Stephens is director of development for A Reason to Survive (ARTS), a nonprofit that provides therapeutic arts programming and education to youth dealing with major life challenges. An artist herself, she is known for her colorful mosaic murals at Bird Rock Elementary School (where she taught for several years). A former top model, Stephens has chaired many fundraising events, including the Las Patronas Jewel Ball, and those benefiting the Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, La Jolla High School and the National Charity League. Ahern and Stephens, along with 12 other honorees, had their praises sung to them — literally — in the form of popular tunes delivered by the San Diego Master Chorale. The lyrics were changed to extol each woman’s achievements and attributes. Women also receiving awards with La Jolla ties included: Catherine A. Blair (for her work with The Bishop’s School, where she has served as director of college counseling and dean of academic resources), and Reinette Levine (for her work with La Jolla Playhouse and UCSD Cardiovascular Center). The lunch was a fundraiser for the Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary of San Diego County.

La Jolla bands to get big exposure via Weather Channel reality show
T
wo La Jolla-based bands, The Saline Solutions and Neveready, are scheduled to appear in an upcoming episode of the Weather Channel reality TV show, “Lifeguard! Southern California.” TBD. Both bands have members who work as lifeguards, and were filmed by the network performing live at Lestat’s coffee house in Normal Heights at the end of last summer. WindanSea resident Mitch McCullough, guitarist and lead singer of The Saline Solutions, was working his third summer as a lifeguard in Pacific Beach when the Weather Channel took an interest in him and his band’s music. Following the band’s performance at Lestat’s, they called McCullough to film him performing rescues in Mission Beach, to be used in the show. The producers later asked the band to sign waivers, giving the network the rights to use any of the songs on the band’s self-titled release, though McCullough said he believes they may be most interested in the tunes “Hidden Treasure” and “Sew My Shadow.” “We were so stoked, so we did it,” said McCullough, 23, a former La Jolla High School student who formed the band in 2011. “I feel like we really might have a
break here.” Self-taught bassist/guitarist and La Jolla Shores native Tim Rayner said he also believes the exposure could give the band some welcome notoriety. “We’re just a little, homegrown, local band that plays some pretty basic surf rock, punk, alternative — whatever your poison may be,” said Rayner 17, a senior at La Jolla High and leader of the worship band at La Jolla Community Church. “We’re just constantly marketing ourselves.” Neveready saxophonist and former La Jolla High student Patrick Hallahan, who will soon be starting his fourth summer as a lifeguard, said he is not yet certain whether the Weather Channel will use Neveready’s music or the any of the 45-minute interview with him on air or merely on the network’s website. “I think they’re going for about a four- or five-minute segment,” he said. Both bands are previous performers at the La Jolla Village Merchants Association’s Haute La Jolla Nights events. For more information on both bands and upcoming performance dates, visit them on Facebook and at reverbnation.com — Pat Sherman
La Jolla is home, and like all homes, it needs maintenance and TLC. Mere tax dollars aren’t enough. Together, we can pool our resources to keep La Jolla the jewel that it is. The La Jolla Community Foundation (LJCF) was created to enrich the environmental, social and cultural experience of La Jolla. So far, we have funded the fire pits along the Shores, commissioned world-class murals around town, repaired the “Teardrop” entrance on La Jolla Parkway, created educational coastal signage, and are now developing a plan to maintain the Village on an ongoing basis. Membership is open to all La Jollans who care. Join the LJCF and have a voice in selecting annual grant recipients – making a difference here, at home, where you live. Please join us. Annual local projects will receive 75% of your contribution and the other remaining 25% will go into a permanent endowment. To make a contribution, please go to lajollacommunityfoundation.org and click on GET INVOLVED. Become a member today!
Members of Neveready hang out at Don Carlos Taco Shop on Pearl Street.

Natalia Wrobel with her painting, ‘Angels on the Ready.’
Will Bowen
La Jolla artist exhibits her ‘transformative’ work By Will Bowen For 2007 Dartmouth College visual arts graduate Natalia Wrobel (also a graduate of The Bishop’s School in La Jolla), art making is like constructing a visual poem in order to come to terms with a difficult experience and transform it into something positive. “You can think with paints and canvas and say things with shapes and colors that you can’t with words,” said Wrobel, who was on the volleyball team at Dartmouth (which is located in the woods of New Hampshire). “And if you throw your whole body into the painting, like an athlete into their sport, by using your paints and colors and canvas, you can think through an experience and transform it into something good that can help other people. “I am not painting to make money or have my art become a commodity. I have to be working on something meaningful.” Wrobel paints in a style that looks like abstract expressionism, best exemplified by artists such as Jackson Pollock. Many art historians consider this style of painting to have run its course. They say it’s obsolete; it has taught us all that it could. “But I don’t think I do abstract expressionism,” Wrobel said. “What I do is take a difficult experience or perception and I transform it. So maybe you might call my art, Transformative Art.” Natalia’s mother Magda Wrobel rises to her daughter’s support. “Each of Natalia’s paintings has a story behind it,” she said. “She takes something that she has been thinking about and attempts to transform it through painting. Her art is very happy, not dark. It attempts to help make you a better, more optimistic, open-hearted person.” Although Natalia’s art studio is in the town of Hanover, N.H., she decided to exhibit 11 of her California Coast-inspired series at the new Strand Salon & Gallery on Prospect Street in La Jolla. Veteran hairstylists James and Lori Peters, owners of the Strand (formerly the La Jolla Knitting Shop) have been in business at the Prospect location for the past eight months. Since Natalia’s mother has been a client of
If you go ■ What: ‘SunWalk Series’ paintings by Natalia Wrobel ■ Where: Strand Salon & Gallery, 909 Prospect St. through June 1 ■ Strand Salon: (858) 454-5444 ■ Website: nataliaswrobel.com the Peters for many years, they’ve known Natalia since she was a little girl and have watched her develop as an artist. They said they were thrilled to have her work in their gallery — especially since it works so well with their interior design. Spencer Hood, a former Dartmouth classmate, who played on the football team, attended the opening March 9 and bought one of the paintings. “I bought Natalia’s small painting, ‘Tides,’ because it reminds me of tidepooling along the beach where I grew up in the Encinitas/ Carlsbad area,” Hood said. Friend Christie Ryan also attended the opening and noted “Natalia’s heart is so close to everything that she does in her life.” Ryan owns “You: (in 500 words or less),” a service that helps students write Statement of Purpose letters to college admissions administrators. Her first client was Natalia. Natalia’s father, Andrew Wrobel, also attended the reception. He grew up in Warsaw, Poland under communism, and was a student at Warsaw Polytechnic Institute. He was able to escape from Poland and follow his dream to attend the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. At MIT, he graduated with a master’s from the Sloan School of Management, and got a job with Texas Instruments, where he pursued his passion for business and leading-edge technology. “My wife and I are firm believers in the importance of family and teaching values to children,” he said. “And even though I am an engineer and may not totally understand my daughter’s style of art, I think it’s important that I value and support her interests.”
