Former Mayor Jerry Sanders heads final fundraising push for cardiovascular center By Pat Sherman Scripps Health marked the completion of the exterior of its new seven-story Prebys Cardiovascular Institute in La Jolla Sept. 4, while also naming former San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders chair of a campaign to raise the final $60 million needed to pay for construction. “With the completion of the exterior of the Prebys Cardiovascular Institute, we are one step closer to completing a center for innovation that will bring together leading physicians and premier cardiovascular services in San Diego,” Scripps president and CEO Chris Van Gorder said. Developer and philanthropist Conrad Prebys, who made his fortune in real estate and construction, gave $45 million to kick-start the project and was named an honorary campaign chair. Van Gorder said it is the largest gift in the history of Scripps Health. See Cardiovascular Center, A10

The City of San Diego’s new agreement with the bike-sharing project, DecoBike, could bring more bicyclists into the streets of La Jolla.

Photos by Ashley Mackin

Group hopes to create safe bike/car culture for La Jolla By Ashley Mackin When it comes to biking in La Jolla, it is both the journey and the destination. The destination is why bike share supporters think La Jolla is a desirable community to install newly approved bike share stations, and the journey is what determined the current amount of bike lanes and paths in La Jolla. On July 9, by a unanimous city council vote, San Diego entered into a corporate agreement with DecoBike, a bike-sharing program that would bring self-serving bikeshare kiosks to La Jolla and the entire city of San Diego in early 2014. DecoBike is accepting suggestions from the community as to where these kiosks should go, and hopes to have a final map established by

suggestions can do so at DecoBike.com/ SanDiego Early feedback to La Jolla Light included some concerns. In a letter published in the Aug. 1 issue, Leslie Ziegenhorn named some worries. “Many of the sightseers are very distracted and poor navigators as they are trying to figure out where they are going and how to get there. Along the coast they are, understandably, often looking at the beautiful scenery and further diverted from paying attention to the road,” she wrote. “I’m concerned that adding more traffic, in the form of multiple tourist bike riders, is actually setting someone up to get seriously hurt.” In 2012, nearly 20 cyclists reported injuries

Criteria for DecoBike locations ■ Regional connectivity for an overall network of bike sharing stations to serve as an alternative mode of public transportation ■G eographic relation to community amenities (such as parks and beaches) ■G eographic relation to other types of transportation hubs (bus stops or carsharing ports); bike sharing serves as a first-mile and last-mile commuter solution ■G eographic relation to commercial attractions (shopping/retail, food and beverage establishments, and hotels) ■G eographic relation to residential densities (condominiums, apartments) Friday, Nov. 1.

Community planners laud revised residential projects La Jolla Community Planning Association

Architect Dan Linn (left) and Joe LaCava listen as Bonair Way resident Michael Sim shows photographs of himself using story poles to demonstrate how tall Linn’s proposed residential development near his home on Bonair Street would be. Sim was one of only two people at the LJCPA meeting to oppose the project. Pat Sherman LJCPA trustee Phil Merten said the project was an “excellent example” of how to add a second-level using setbacks and articulation to minimize its impact. He said the design is what is called for in the La Jolla Community Plan and La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance. After hearing the presentation, Emerson voted in favor of the project, thanking the

architects for being responsive to her concerns.

Bonair Street about-face

Things were looking grim for a proposed residential development at the end of Bonair Street (near the La Jolla Bike Path) during July meetings of La Jolla’s Development Permit Review (DPR) committee, at which a DPR

By Pat Sherman The La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) approved two residential development projects during its Sept. 5 meeting that had been previously called into question at the subcommittee level by some residents. LJCPA trustees first heard a presentation on the Sudberry Residence in La Jolla Shores. Though the project was approved during the July meeting of the La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (PRC), it was pulled from the LJCPA’s consent agenda for further discussion last month by LJCPA board member Janie Emerson (a PRC member who cast the lone vote against the project in July, based on its bulk and scale relative to the neighborhood). Officials with the University of California, San Diego raised concerns this summer that the project might negatively impact an adjacent residence the university was deeded

by its owner, Sally McMurray. McMurray said heavy machinery used during previous renovations to the Sudberry property caused thousands of dollars in damage to her water pipes. Project architect and LJCPA president Toni Crisafi (recusing himself from his role as a voting LJCPA board member) assisted his colleague at Island Architects, Haley Bareisa, in the presentation. Since July, Bareisa said, Island Architects has increased the distance between the northern property line and a covered terrace by more than 10 feet — one of many revisions to the project during the past few years. UCSD Principal Community Planner Anu Delouri read a statement on behalf of the university saying that after “productive and collaborative meetings” with the Sudberry family and its consultants, which resulted in plan revisions and “measures to minimize disruptions and inconveniences to Mrs. McMurray during construction … UCSD is confident a mutual agreement will be finalized in the near future.” LJCPA trustees ultimately voted 13-0-3 that findings could be made to approve coastal and site development permit amendments to demolish the existing Sudberry residence at 8053 Calle del Cielo, and a portion of their adjacent residence, to construct a two-level home that would occupy both lots.

member referred to the design as “particularly ungracious.” In July, DPR members twice voted 5-0-1 to oppose the project, based on its bulk and scale, drainage issues, driveway access and lot layout. However, the project received largely glowing praise during the recent LJCPA meeting, following plan revisions that included the removal of a third-story stairwell (reducing the height by five feet), and efforts to make the project tighter and more consistent with the neighborhood. Architect Dan Linn and project representative and LJCPA Vice-Chair Joe LaCava (who recused himself from the vote) led a presentation that resulted in LJCPA trustees voting 10-4-1 that findings could be made for a coastal development permit, tentative map and variance to demolish an existing duplex on the site and construct three, three-story detached single-family residences of 1,929 to 2,185 square feet. (The variance was requested to maintain two existing driveways, where only one would currently be allowed.) Linn recently recruited LaCava, a land-use and planning consultant, to help him polish and revise his presentation. Though some residents at the DPR meetings in July questioned whether the project fit into the neighborhood, LaCava said Bonair Street is “probably the most eclectic collection of development,” in La Jolla, with flexible zoning. “It is literally a hopscotch of development,” LaCava said, adding that the project replicates the single-family home aesthetic of other condos and projects on Bonair Street. “It is up against the bike path,” LaCava said, adding that this paved section of the bike path is “not very pretty.” LaCava added that there are no public view corridors on the bike path that would be blocked (as some had suggested during the DPR meetings). Though several LJCPA trustees suggested that the project was so different from what was presented to the DPR committee that it should return there for further discussion, LaCava argued that the changes weren’t significant enough to delay the project at the subcommittee level any longer. Though project opponent and DPR member Mike Costello said it appears like “three shipping containers stacked next to

each other,” trustee Fran Zimmerman said she believes the design is a “big improvement” over the existing structures, and “an attractive addition to the neighborhood.” Trustee Jim Fitzgerald said he appreciated that the architect designed three separate units, instead of one large structure, which, though allowed, would have less visual appeal.

In other LJCPA news n Environmental doc released: It was noted that a draft mitigated negative declaration (environmental document) for the proposed Gaxiola residence is available for review online. The owners are seeking to demolish an existing home at 2414 Calle de Oro and construct a 5,543-square-foot, twostory single-family residence with a four-car garage, basement and swimming pool. The deadline to submit comments is Sept. 24. View the document at bit.ly/Gaxioladoc n Road narrowing on Upper Girard: Trustee Zimmerman said she was surprised that she hadn’t heard about ongoing road construction on Upper Girard Avenue near La Jolla Elementary and the Gillispie School before reading about it in La Jolla Light. Zimmerman said narrowing that section of the street, which would reduce it to one lane in either direction, would cause “a tremendous backing up of cars on Girard.” “This decision was made four years ago,” she said. “When projects are drawn out to such great lengths, we need some (more) information about their (status).” Trustees LaCava and Merten argued that the road, for all intent and purposes, is only one lane in either direction now. President Crisafi said he would contact the chair of La Jolla’s Traffic and Transportation Board to ask if they will consider reviewing their earlier decision to approve the work. n Committee to address vacation rentals: A new LJCPA ad hoc committee will study the issue of short-term vacation rentals in La Jolla, which have led to noise and parking complaints in recent years. Serving on the committee are Jim Fitzgerald, Bob Steck, Tom Brady, David Little, Patrick Ahern and newly appointed DPR member Alex Outwater.

The event, produced by the La Jolla Town Council, is a fundraiser for community beautification projects in the Village, as well as the La Jolla Christmas Parade and Warriors and Quiet Waters, a national nonprofit benefitting critically injured U.S. servicemen and women.

now, but I will have the perfection I’m looking for in three weeks — if I have to kill myself doing it.” Though D’Angelo and Gellens are keeping specific details about their routines under wraps, D’Angelo said hers has a James Bond air of mystery and intrigue, while Gellens’ will deliver a spicy cha-cha number. “There’s some really good surprises that you would not expect from people our age,” said D’Angelo, a former gymnast whose only primary dance experience is letting loose at Las Patronas’ annual Jewel Ball. “I just can’t let my nerves get the best of me, because I haven’t really thought it through that I’m going to be dancing in front of a crowd,” she added. Prado said he is impressed with D’Angelo’s dedication and focus during rehearsals. “She’s brought real creativity to the partnership,” he said. “She really wants to make a statement for her town and her community, which I think is terrific. “The biggest challenge is creating in her a sense of musicality and movement while not being too concerned about the dance steps,” he added. Gellens has also made outstanding progress, her partner said. “She’s really dedicated and she’s a hard worker — that’s what’s going to get us there,” Gibbons said. “She knows her whole routine. We’re just working on getting the muscle memory of it.” Gellens added: “My feet need to listen to my brain — and my hands need to listen to him, because my hands are all over the place.” While she may still be learning where her

hands and feet should be, Gellens heart is definitely in the right place. “I’m all for the wounded warriors,” she said. “I just think they get shortchanged every day. And I sell La Jolla, so why wouldn’t I want it beautiful and in good shape?” The event will begin with three-course surf and turf dinner and wine (a cash bar will also be provided). Competition begins during dinner, and includes a live auction for items such as lunch in a jail cell with County Sheriff Bill Gore; a “party in a paddy wagon” for 10, including dinner at a local restaurant; a water-propelled jetpack excursion; a trip to Puerto Vallarta (including airfare); personal training sessions; a wardrobe makeover with Leonard Simpson of KUSI TV’s “Fashion Forward,” a membership to The Sporting Club in La Jolla; and other items. Other confirmed dancers include: former University of Michigan football player, Derek Bell; “Good Morning San Diego” coanchor Brandi Williams; County TreasurerTax Collector Dan McAllister; La Jolla Real Estate Brokers’ Association Vice-President Karen Rockwell; REBA member Carol Kaplan (owner of Everything Creative); and Scripps Health’s Chief of Cardiology, Dr. Paul Teirstein.

Survivors are often left with significant cognitive, functional, behavioral, and communicative disabilities, and some patients develop long-term medical complications. A physical therapist trained in neurological rehab can help to navigate the physical and cognitive changes and improve one’s abilities. Ability Rehab specializes in neurological therapies, including those for TBI. Our highlyskilled therapists will develop an individualized program to improve independence and mobility over time. We incorporate exercises to improve or adapt the patient's ability to sit, stand and walk while maintaining balance and equilibrium. Compensatory strategies to address limitations in visual feedback may also be required, as well as targeted exercises to improve the strength of the trunk, pelvis, and lower extremities. P.S. Whether the injury happened 5 days ago or 5 years ago we can help. Call Ability Rehab to schedule an evaluation or a free 15-minute screening.

This WindanSea cottage (left), with its notable cobblestone chimney, will be preserved, while property owners demolish the rear cottage to build a more modern structure. A rendering of the compromise by Golba Architecture (at right) is awaiting city approval. Courtesy

Parties close to compromise on contentious WindanSea cottages By Pat Sherman Architectural preservationists have reached a tentative compromise with the owners of two potentially historic WindanSea cottages, following a year of escalating tensions stemming from the owners’ plan to demolish both Tudor-style cottages and build a modern duplex on the site (337 and 341 Playa del Sur). Both the La Jolla Historical Society (LJHS) and San Diego-based Save Our Heritage Organisation (SOHO) opposed demolition of the 1930s cottages, which the city’s Development Services Department approved based on a historical analysis commissioned

by the owners that found too many of the structures’ original features had been altered for them to be deemed historic. Preservationists were pushing for the city’s Historical Resources Board to conduct a full historic review. Project architect Tim Golba told La Jolla Light the compromise recently struck between the property owners, the LJHS and SOHO involves preserving the front cottage and adding a rear, second-story with similar period aesthetics to it. The rear cottage (considered to be of a lesser historic value) would be demolished and a three-story, modern structure with rooftop deck built in

its place. “The hope is that there’s minimal impact to the overall postcard view of the front (one-bedroom) cottage,” Golba said, noting that though the compromise is not entirely final, it is off to a “swimmingly well” start. “Everybody’s optimistic that this will become lemonade out of lemons, at least the initial eyes (on it) so far have been very positive.” The new construction at the rear of the property would require a deviation from the city, while the U.S. Secretary of the Interior would have to approve the addition to the front cottage — particularly if the owners apply to have the cottage designated as historic,

which Golba said they are likely to do. The designation would please preservationists and allow the owners to apply for a Mills Act tax break (granted to the owners of historic properties who agree to maintain historic aspects of a property) — something LJHS Executive Director Heath Fox called a “win-win” scenario. “It is a pretty ideal outcome,” Fox said, noting that the plan received unanimous support from the preservation committees of both SOHO and the LJHS. Golba said one of his architects has met with city staff on a preliminary basis, and they seemed supportive of the current plans.

Panera Bread to close in La Jolla Village The Panera Bread franchise at the corner of Wall Street and Girard Avenue will close its doors Sunday. The bakery-cafe is leaving upon mutual agreement with Davlyn Investments, the new owner of the threelevel complex it has occupied for a little more than two years. Davlyn is remodeling the property, which is scheduled to re-open in December as the high-end boutique shopping center, La Plaza. “Panera Bread has been blessed to serve the community of La Jolla these past two years and we look forward to doing so in the future,” said Sandy McElfresh, director of sales and marketing for Manna Development Group, which owns the Panera franchise. “Davlyn Investments has made a request of Panera Bread to release some space back to them for necessary building improvements. After several attempts by both Davlyn Investments and Panera Bread’s architects to accommodate the new design, it was clear the best option was for Panera Bread to relocate. The agreement was amicable and we are currently looking at other locations in both the Village and UTC areas.” Manna Development Operating Partner Patrick Rogers added, “Our desire would be for every one of Panera Bread’s 36 associates and managers at the La Jolla location to remain in our family. They all will be given the opportunity to transfer to one of our other nearby bakery cafes.” — Staff Reports

revenue, borrowing and donations. So far, approximately $120 million in philanthropic gifts have been raised toward the $180 million fundraising goal. Sanders, who ended his two terms as mayor last December, will lead the Campaign for Cardiovascular Care to raise the rest of the money.

Host Ina von Ber (right) introduces Singapore Ambassador Ashok Kumar Mirpuri.

By Ashley Mackin Singapore’s ambassador to the United States, Ashok Kumar Mirpuri, visited La Jolla for an ambassadorial roundtable Sept. 5, where he discussed the history of Singapore, its relationship with the United States and other interesting facts about the country. Ina von Ber, CEO of World Diplomatic Forum, hosted the event at a private residence, and explained that the ongoing roundtables “invite ambassadors to San Diego homes for a dinner and the opportunity to learn about their countries.” Mirpuri told guests that Singapore, just 274 square miles, is a small nation with a short but fruitful history. It became an independent country in 1965. At 53 years old, Mirpuri said he is older than Singapore and has had various nationalities. “I was born in Singapore, but when I was born I was a British subject, I then became a Malaysian subject, and in 1965, I became a Singapore citizen,” he said. The flag, he explained, has a crescent on it, which represents a young country. Its five stars speak to Singapore’s national values: democracy, peace, progress, justice and equality. The flag’s red hue stands for universal brotherhood and the white represents purity. With a population of just over 5 million people, “Singapore is, today, built upon the past the British left to us, a very important maritime hub,” he said. “Every year, more

Research Report LynnE Friedmann

Genetic adaptation for high altitudes identified

esearchers from the Jacobs Schools of Engineering at UC San Diego have uncovered a genetic basis of chronic mountain sickness (CMS), also known as Monge’s disease. Caused by low-oxygen conditions at high altitudes, CMS is characterized by headache, fatigue, sleepiness and depression. Severe cases can lead to lifethreatening stroke or heart attack. More than 140 million people permanently reside in high-altitude regions around the world. These geographically distinct populations have for the most part adapted to cope with low levels of oxygen in the blood (hypoxia). But there are many humans living at high elevations in the Andes mountain region of South America who are maladapted and suffer from CMS. Computer scientists compared genetic variation between mountain-dwelling Peruvians with CMS and adapted subjects without CMS, using whole genome sequencing. Complex algorithms looked for evidence of natural selection and identified two genes with significantly increased expression in individuals susceptible to CMS. The study validates a long-suspected genetic basis of adaptation to high altitudes. It also provides potential targets both for CMS treatment

at high altitude as well as certain cardiovascular and brain diseases related to low oxygen levels in individuals living at any altitude. Findings appear in the journal Genetics. News release at http://bit.ly/136jc1o

Computer simulation of cloth greatly enhanced The special-effect appearance of cloth in movies and video games often looks unrealistic. It’s a long-standing technical problem now solved by UC San Diego computer scientists, who have developed a new computer model to simulate with unsurpassed accuracy the way cloth and light interact. The model simulates how each thread in a piece of cloth scatters light by treating the fabric’s weaving pattern as a mesh of interwoven microcylinders — which scatters light the same way as hair — but oriented at 90 degrees from each other. In addition to its application by the entertainment industry, the model can also act as a framework to visualize what new fabrics would look like by simulating any combination of weaving pattern and thread types. The findings were presented at SIGGRAPH 2013, one of world’s premiere technology conferences. News release at http://bit.ly/15wxghh

Do cities have their own “visual signature?” They do, according to new-media researchers who analyzed millions of photographs posted on social networks. The Phototrails project analyzed and compared 2.3 million photos, from 13 major cities around the world, uploaded during a three-month period to the Instagram photosharing social network. The team assessed information recorded by Instagram every time a photo is shared — date and time, geographic location, and filter applied to the photo — as well as visual attributes of the photos such as mean, median, standard deviation, brightness, hue and color saturation; the number of edges; contrast; and texture measurements. From this analysis a unique visual signature for each city emerged. Beyond comparing the visual signatures of cities, the study went deeper to explore specific cities and key events. For example, in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, researchers analyzed 23,000 Instagram photos from the Brooklyn area shared between Nov. 29 and 30, 2012, when Sandy made landfall. During this period, user-generated photos shows a steep drop in the number of photos posted, and changes in hue, after the lights went out. The Phototrails project is a partnership among the City University of New York (CUNY), Calit2’s Qualcomm Institute at UCSD, and the University of Pittsburgh. Findings appear in the online journal First Monday. More information and all of the visualizations are available at http://phototrails.net — Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.

TV producerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s La Jolla estate sells for $18.5 million

he second-highest single parcel home sale in La Jolla history closed escrow Sept. 3 for $18.5 million, said Ed Mracek, who co-listed the oceanfront property with Marty Vusich of Willis Allen Real Estate. The 15,000 square-foot estate occupies 2.58 acres at 9736 La Jolla Farms Road and was owned by the producer of NBC TVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Night Courtâ&#x20AC;? sitcom, the late Reinhold Weege, and his wife, Shelley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This sale is eclipsed only by that of the larger parcel at 9776 La Jolla Farms Road purchased for $23.5 million in 2005 by attorney Bill Lerach,â&#x20AC;? Mracek said. The buyer of the Weege property is listed on county assessor records as JJCD Investments, LLC, of Austin, Texas. Weege and his wife bought the property in 1995 for $4.38 million. It was formerly the home of Salk Institute

President FrĂŠdĂ¨ric de Hoffmann. When de Hoffmann died, his widow donated the home to Salk. A few years later the institute sold the home to support scientific research. The Weeges hired architect Frederick Weir and interior designer Arthur Porras to create their sprawling new residence that included a guesthouse, entertainment building and state-of-the-art home theater wired for a home recording studio. Weege died Dec. 1, 2012 at age 62, four months after listing the estate at $27.3 million. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The home was on the market for 348 days,â&#x20AC;? Mracek told La Jolla Light. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once we reduced the price to $22 million, we started to see some interest. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the last Arthur Porrasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homes in the area.â&#x20AC;? Porras, a Mission Hills-based designer, died in 2005. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Susan DeMaggio

Jackson Design and Remodeling recently completed this contemporary whole home remodel in La Jolla Shores. Courtesy employees in all. “We’re an integrated system and that’s what attracts people to us,” Jackson said. “They see our portfolio and it’s more personalized; we come to them with a team approach.” Jackson said his passion for

building came in high school after earning an “A” in vocational construction class. He found his career path quickly, and older brothers-in-law, who were masons, inspired and mentored him. By age 20, Jackson started his own business. He earned his contractor’s

license at age 23 and began building home additions. While working with designers at Home Depot Expo, he built high-end kitchens and baths. There he learned how to work with clients and contractors and follow a set of plans. Jackson said his current clients are people seeking something unique that they won’t see in anyone else’s home. His recent Muirlands project features a countertop that looks like geodes put together by LED lighting that illuminates the entire slab. “It is a centerpiece for that house,” Jackson said. Additional high-end elements in recent home projects include

stainless steel kitchen cabinets, ambient lighting and back lighting. “People are developing rooms into great rooms by opening up the kitchen, or by opening up the back of the house to create an indoor-outdoor experience, or by remodeling the master suite to provide a client with a spa every morning,” Jackson said. Well-known for their exceptional work throughout coastal San Diego County and Rancho Bernardo, Jackson Design and Remodeling will soon celebrate 24 years in business.

Cross the Bay for Coronado Art Walk Sept. 14-15 From Coronado Historical Society Reports

Take a short, cool ride across San Diego Bay to enjoy the works of more than 100 artists from around the country during this year’s Coronado Art Walk at the Coronado Ferry Landing, Sept. 14 and 15. Admission is free. Musical entertainment and hands-on art activities will be available both Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Coronado Art Walk, a juried art show, is a major fundraiser for the Coronado Historical Association. The Ferry Landing, located on the Coronado side of San Diego Bay is a picture-perfect setting for the two-day art and music celebration. At colorful booths like the Rad Hatter, Stitches from the Heart and other hands-on art stations visitors can try their hand at weaving, painting or creating colorful cards for service persons overseas, while little ones may have their faces painted. Musical entertainment is an important facet of the outdoor event every year, and a variety of popular groups, including the Sundance Band, Breez’n, the Bayou Brothers and the ever-popular Bill Magee Blues Band, will perform on the main stage over the two days. The event attracts artists from many different parts of the country, who work in a wide variety of media, including jewelry, ceramics, painting and colored pencil, sculpture, photography, glass, body ornament, textiles and wood. A number of the artists have been a part of the event since the first Coronado Art Walk eight years ago. The Ferry Landing provides a variety of dining opportunities with good choices available on-site for every appetite and budget. Visitors will find ample parking available but for anyone wishing to forgo their cars for the day, the San Diego/ Coronado Ferry will be carrying pedestrians and bicyclists

across the bay (a fee is charged for ferry service). A free M.T.A. shuttle bus (No. 904) is available to shuttle visitors from the Ferry Landing along Orange Avenue to the Coronado Library, Coronado Museum of History & Art, Coronado Visitor Center, downtown shopping and dining spots, the beach and the Hotel del Coronado. The Coronado Art Walk is presented by the Coronado Historical Association, with support from the Unified Port of San Diego and the Coronado Tourism Improvement District, and donations from many others. For more information, call the Coronado Visitor Center, (619) 437-8788 or visit coronadoartwalk.org or coronadohistory.org The Business Spotlight features commercial enterprises that support the La Jolla Light.

OPINION

Did anyone see the hit-and-run on Sea Lane? Last week, I read the article in the La Jolla Light titled, “Are You Safe?” In it, Officer Larry Hesselgesser said that due to the shortage of officers, police are reaching out to citizens like they did in the 1970s. It inspired me to write about a recent incident to see if we can get some help through an article in the Light. On Thursday, Aug. 29 about 9:30 p.m. witnesses say two vehicles (one black BMW and one silver BMW) were racing each other southbound on La Jolla Boulevard from Pearl Street. A 2005 or new silver BMW abruptly turned right going the wrong way down Sea Lane and hit a parked 1991 Toyota 4Runner SUV. There is substantial damage to the 4Runner and the front wheel is turned outwards. Being an older vehicle, the owner only carried liability and so will not have coverage. One resident witnessed the accident from his front porch and reported that he saw four young boys in the vehicle. He tried to stop the car, but they would not stop. He was unable to get the license plate number. About 20 or so neighbors heard the impact and came outside to the scene. A local Barber Tract resident checked his security cameras, but did not have a view of Sea Lane. Businesses on La Jolla Boulevard were contacted to see if they had security cameras. One may have footage of the two cars, but has been slow in responding, so the request has been forwarded through the officer who took the hit-and-run report to see if he can get the accident footage. I would like to reach out to residents through this letter in the La Jolla Light to ask for help in the way of information that can lead to finding the driver and vehicle that hit the 4Runner that night. From the damage to the 4Runner, I would imagine the BMW that hit it, also has substantial damage. If that vehicle is local, someone may be aware of it. Here is a photo of the 4Runner damage, especially note the front right wheel, which is now turned outwards. I am writing on behalf of the vehicle owner, Robert Major. He said anyone with information about this incident should contact him at lobsterbob1@yahoo.com Lynn Hawklyn La Jolla

An Independent La Jolla would be a good thing! Thanks to Melinda Merryweather, our tireless advocate for independence. For the cost of one Tomahawk Missile, La Jolla could finally become its own, independent City, and then WE can decide how to clean and beautify our

Now that the seals and the Post Office have faded from the pages of La Jolla Light, are we now in for week after week of leaf blower letters and articles? It may surprise some people to learn that not all leaf blowers are noisy or obnoxious, and that they are used as tools to help eliminate organic loads in runoff from the streets into the ocean. They are also used as tools to help people earn a living. Individual issues with problem neighbors should be solved on an individual basis. What will be proposed next — banning lawn mowers, weed whackers, chain saws, jack hammers, the compactors on garbage and recycling trucks, motorcycles, or power tools in general? And how will an “independent” La Jolla ban leaf blowers? The Municipal Code contains both sound pressure level and time limits for noise in residential neighborhoods. The noise created by spoiled crybabies with too much time on their hands is what should be banned. Dale S. Duffala Bird Rock

Another vote for a Trader Joe’s in La Jolla A Trader Joe’s in our Village has been my banner for years — just ask my friends. Driving to Pacific Beach or up to the university area is difficult. A Trader Joe’s in our neighborhood would be over the moon! Vons has the grocery world locked up and Trader Joe’s on the same path as the Sunday Open Aire farmers market is a match made in heaven. I hope the La Jolla Light receives many favorable responses to this concept. P.S.: A lovely nod to Jonathan’s; it’s a civilized adventure of culinary delights for specialized dining. Robyn Willsey Morton La Jolla

Tarnishing Jewel feature could be self-serving I believe there may be more important issues around town to spotlight than cracks in the roads. I have lived on Marine Street for more than 20 years and these cracks have never bothered me. While funding for schools and other integral parts of the community vanishes, the city seems to find plenty of money to waste on construction of new lifeguard towers at La Jolla Shores and the Children’s Pool, or the power washing of rocks at the Cove (which is supposedly a NATURE RESERVE) because people are just so bothered by the smell of the native population of wildlife. I suggest telling folks if they don’t like a

couple of cracks in the road or animals living their lives in their natural habitat, perhaps they should move to some tract home in Mira Mesa where everything is perfectly monotonous and mechanical. Overflowing garbage cans, yes. But cracked roads? Come on. Good idea for a feature, but you guys really started out on the wrong foot with that one. I would suggest spotlighting the crime of washing the rocks at the Cove. I mean, what’s next after that? Complaints of stinky seaweed leading to the destruction of the kelp beds? Sorry about my rant, I just felt that I needed to voice my opinion on this. Paul Clausen La Jolla

Undergrounding utility poles and street repairs will be long process I was just chatting with my landlord regarding the cable and telephone polls and wiring next to our home on Draper Avenue. Two years ago, we lived on Marine Street (west of the boulevard) and the city put all the wiring underground. I remarked that it wouldn’t be too long before these utility poles were also a thing of the past. However, my landlord is much more aware of the situation and related the information that the City of San Diego has a plan to put ALL cables underground. That sounds like great news, until you learn that the entire process will take no less than 60 years! Now, some residents have collaborated and contributed money to pay the city to prioritize their streets. This mostly pertains to residents who have an ocean view. However, it could well be several decades before this project is completed. Upon reading the new “Tarnishing Our Jewel” feature, I immediately thought that this must be the “underground utility project” to which writer Sarah Lowrey is referring in her report about the cracked streets. I agree, the streets are in major need of repair. My husband and I are both avid road cyclists and a crack in the street has caught my wheel more than once. I suppose the city doesn’t want to pay to repair the streets twice. Anyway, I thought I’d pass along the information regarding the city’s mystery project. On a related note, while I appreciate wanting to clean up and repair La Jolla, I hope these articles relate more to the safety of residents. I agree, eyesores are, well, sore! However, in my opinion, there are a lot more important problems. For example, have you tried to use a crosswalk lately? Rare is the case that a car stops or waits for a pedestrian (and I’m including children) to safely cross the street. Stop signs seem to be merely a suggestion and people drive way too fast down the residential streets (also putting children at risk). Bird Rock has seemed to solve some of these problems with upgraded crosswalks and roundabouts (which force you to slow down by the physics of sharing the intersection with oncoming traffic), while, at the same time, continuing the flow of traffic. Anyway, just some thoughts. Aimee Bruin La Jolla

CRIME REPORT

‘Dum Dum’ robbers will face trial Three people accused in a series of local bank robberies, including a final heist at a Wells Fargo bank near La Jolla Village near UTC last June, must stand trial on multiple felony charges, a judge ruled last week. Laura Elshire, 42, Robert Anthony Hodge, 28, and Casey Allen Wilson, 27, are all facing robbery charges. Judge Howard Shore ruled that enough evidence had been presented for the defendants to proceed to trial in connection with six bank heists. San Diego police robbery Detective DeWayne Glazewski testified that Hodge, in an interview after his arrest, confessed to his involvement in the “Dum Dum” robberies, so named because one of the robbers took a jar of “Dum Dum” lollipops during one of the holdups. Glazewski said Hodge also confessed to robbing a Wells Fargo bank on Del Mar Heights Road last Jan. 3 and a Wells Fargo branch with Wilson near UTC last May 7. Glazewski said that Hodge told him that he, Wilson and Elshire participated in the holdup of the same Wells Fargo bank near UTC last June, in which Wilson was shot in the face and arm by a security guard. Hodge was bound over for trial on six counts; Wilson on two counts and Elshire on two charges. A Superior Court arraignment was set for Sept. 17.

Police say rise in heroin use fueled by prescription drug abuse A study conducted by the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) shows that heroin use has risen in San Diego County, which historically has had relatively low rates of this substance abuse compared to other parts of the nation. Between 2002 and 2012, the percent of adult men booked into jail who tested positive for opiates (heroin, morphine, hydrocodone, hydromorphone and Codeine) jumped from 5 percent to 10 percent, according to the study released last week by the SANDAG Criminal Justice Research Division. The rate among women increased from 6 percent to 12 percent. For the first time, younger adults booked into jail (those ages 18 to 24) were significantly more likely to test positive for opiates (14 percent) in 2012, compared to those ages 25 to 39 (12 percent) and 40 and older (8 percent). The study also found that more than three-quarters (79 percent) of individuals who used heroin in the last year reported it was “very easy” or “easy” to obtain. More than one in four (27 percent) of those who ever tried heroin reported that they had used prescription opiates before trying heroin, and almost two-thirds (63 percent) of these individuals said they

Correction In the report, “Group learns beach cleanup is Coastal Commission work,” in last week’s issue, City Parks and Recreation Department District Manager Dan Daneri was misquoted as saying lifeguards historically removed wrack (anything that washes up on shore; in this case, kelp) from Children’s Pool as part of their duties. It was intended to read that at beaches where a Coastal Development Permit is not required, lifeguards could remove wrack, but it is no longer the policy for them to do so.

started using heroin as a substitute for the prescription opiates, often because of increased availability and cheaper cost. Younger adults (18 to 24) were significantly more likely to report having abused a prescription opiate (46 percent), compared to 32 percent of those between the ages of 25 and 39 and 28 percent of those 40 and older.

SDG&E warns customers of payment scam San Diego Gas and Electric (SDG&E) is alerting customers to be aware of an ongoing wire fraud that has been targeting SDG&E customers. Reports indicate that individuals are misrepresenting themselves as utility employees by calling customers and threatening to turn off electric and gas service if an immediate payment is not made. Customers are instructed to purchase a pre-pay credit card, and are directed to another phone number where information is then obtained from the card and the cash value is then removed. SDG&E does not proactively contact customers and ask for credit card information over the phone. Customers should not provide any financial information by phone unless they have initiated the conversation. If any customers receives a phone call that makes them feel uncomfortable, and they know they have an outstanding balance, they are advised to call SDG&E directly at (800) 411-7343.

OUR READERS WRITE (Continued)

Tarnishing Our Jewel feature may help spur improvements Thank you very much for your efforts to make La Jolla a better place to live through this new feature. Vons supermarket is bounded on the east by Girard Street and on the west by Fay Street. On the sidewalks of both of those streets are rectangles of bricks, which make the sidewalks a little more attractive. However, some of the bricks have been missing for a long time. This reduces the attractiveness of the sidewalks and creates a hazard for pedestrians, wheelchairs, baby carriages, etc. The total number of missing bricks is probably less than 10, and they are the inexpensive kind, made of concrete, rather than clay. The sidewalks could be repaired quickly and inexpensively. I don’t understand why adjacent businesses haven’t taken care of the problem long ago. I wish you the best of luck with your efforts. Bill Bayliff La Jolla

Some pavement problems are worse than others

Why do people leave their trash in and on news boxes?

I read the article “Tarnishing Our Jewel” last week in the Light and decided to send you this photo of Romero Drive in the La Jolla Country Club area. For years, those of us who live above Romero Drive, such as those in homes on Brodiaea or Encelia Drive, have had to physically move our cars into the oncoming traffic lane in order to avoid a large bump in the road that is caused by tree roots from a large tree on the adjacent property. For cars coming down the hill, the large bump causes people to have to slow their vehicles to almost a stop or go into the other lane in order to avoid the large bump in the road. I agree that the city needs to do something about the condition of our terrible streets in La Jolla. I would be happy if La Jolla could secede and be its own community so that we could have our parks, sidewalks, and streets clean and well taken care of, like the residents in Coronado. For all of the taxes that the people of La Jolla pay to the city, I feel that we get short shrift when it comes to the services that are needed in the Village. Thank you for your concern and attention to this situation. Lisa Casey La Jolla

“Tarnishing Our Jewel!” What a GREAT new feature! Love it! Here’s one that has bugged me for years. Are these “trash boxes” legal? Has anyone checked to see about permits, etc.? There are colonies of these all through the Village and they are disgusting vile blights on our town. (The La Jolla Light box excepted, of course!) Jerry Cesak La Jolla Editor’s Note: Ouch! Under the San Diego Municipal Code (March 2007) Chapter 15: Planned Districts, Article 9: La Jolla Planned District Appendix A: Retail Establishment Types, newsstands are legal in La Jolla, and probably not what you’re referring to with this photo. The real problem (eyesore) with newsstands is that people use them as trash receptacles, as evidenced by the flyers, stickers and plastic cups left behind in this assemblage. The Light has been reporting on groups working behind the scenes to come up with an ongoing Village cleanup program that will address maintenance issues like this one. Stay tuned, we hope to soon say that cruddy sights like this are a part of the past.

Crowd gathers in La Jolla to light candles for peace By Pat Sherman Nearly 100 people attended a spontaneous rally in the Village Monday night, Sept. 9, to light candles and urge government officials to exercise restraint in any U.S. response to Syria’s use of chemical weapons on its citizens. Attendees gathered at the intersection of Girard Avenue and Silverado Street, holding signs to promote peace and denouncing the “military industrial complex” — a term that gained popularity in the 1961 farewell address of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. It refers to the oft conflicting policy and monetary relationships between government officials, the armed forces and the munitions and military industry. “After World War II, I can’t think of anything that has been accomplished by any military action the United States has taken,” said La Jollan Barbara Baxter, who helped organize the event through an e-blast sent via the liberal political advocacy group, Moveon.org. “I don’t feel that we have used up all of our options. I feel that we have to give peace a chance, imagine a world without war.” Co-organizer Barbara Lorenz said people are always talking about the United States’ “moral and humanitarian obligation with regard to Syria.” “I agree perfectly,” Lorenz said. “But

my moral and humanitarian obligation is to our troops — no more slaughter of our troops.” Pacific Beach resident Nere Lartitegui, a U.S. citizen of more than a decade who was born during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) in Spain’s Basque Country, attended the rally with her daughter, Veronica Bonomie, and granddaughter, Valeria Bonomie — both of La Jolla. “I was born in war, and I believe that war doesn’t work,” Lartitegui said. “We are three generations here. Peace is the legacy that I want to leave my family and anyone in this country that has received us so generously.” Hillcrest resident Bob Jones added, “I think I’m like most Americans — I want to be proud of my country, and I think bombing Syria will take away that feeling for most Americans.” Elizabeth Maier of North Park suggested that the U.S establish a “department of peace” that would supersede its defense department. “We’d have a whole different kind of vision about society, like: Who’s hungry? Who needs food? Who needs to be educated? Who needs housing?” “A military reaction to genocide is not going to solve anything,” added Jeanne Campbell of Ocean Beach. “We need to support diplomacy at all costs.”

to the San Diego Police Department. SDPD Media Relations Officer Kevin Mayer said, “There were 23 collisions involving at least one bicycle in La Jolla during 2012. These collisions involved 19 injuries and zero fatalities.” The only actual bike lanes in La Jolla are in Bird Rock, along Soledad Mountain Road and Torrey Pines Road. The length of La Jolla Boulevard and Prospect Street are a “suggested bike route,” meaning there is no official bikeway, but it’s safe for bicyclists. Similarly, Coast Boulevard and Neptune Place are considered a bike route, with shared right-of-way designated by signs. However, SANDAG Active Transportation Program Manager Chris Kluth argues there are safe ways to share the road with the current bike facilities, and an area like La Jolla would be great for a bike share program, with long-term benefits. Because La Jolla is a landmass with lots of places to go, biking is considered a journey. As such, SANDAG considers The Jewel a good place to ride bikes. Kluth said in the Village, the streets are generally quieter and people don’t drive that fast, so motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians can share the road in a reasonable way. “The more people — and studies have shown in all kinds of places — you have riding bikes, the safety for the entire group goes up,” he said. “It raises people’s awareness, so it’s not like ‘oh geez, that was a bike.’ (The drivers) see them more frequently and drivers get used to dealing with other road users.”

www.lajollalight.com La Jolla bicyclist Ed Clancy, a DecoBike supporter, sees an additional benefit. “The great thing about bike share is we are getting people used to alternative transportation, so that lowers the number of cars,” he said. The number and placement of bike facilities is determined by the City of San Diego Master Bike Plan. To add or change those facilities, the city would have to work with the community and determine whether a proposed location could potentially fit a bike lane. Kluth said that often means looking at lanes with enough width, removing a passing lane or removing parking on that street. It is unknown, given that the program is new to San Diego, whether bike sharing would fit into traditional city planning. But there are alternatives to changing the current facilities. In some areas, a “sharrow” has been painted into the street, which tells drivers to expect to see bicyclists because it’s an area that has been identified as a good connection or a destination, and that cyclists can safely ride there, Kluth said. Clancy also suggests a “green bike lane,” which is simply a portion of the street painted green. “Green bikes lanes are great because if the cyclists are not there, it signals that there may be cyclists on the road,” he said. “People driving would be more intuitive to the fact that if they see a green lane to know there might be a cyclist.” Saying that he thinks La Jolla is a good place for bicyclists, Clancy added, “I think a lot more can be done and I have faith that it will be done to have a safe car-and-bike-culture.”

Let Inga Tell You

For better or worse, but not for lunch

La Jolla Cultural Partners

fter three straight years of 7-day 80-hour weeks punctuated by frequent international travel to the U.K. and the Middle East, my husband, Olof, decided to retire. In the last four blissful weeks, it feels like I’ve reconnected with someone who’s been brought back from the dead, or at least United. Surprisingly, most of my friends greeted the news of his retirement with genuine condolences, confiding that their ultimate nightmare was a husband not only under foot but requiring entertainment. For better or worse, they said, but not for lunch. Everyone who knows Olof was shocked to the core at his decision to retire, as his well-known four-word retirement plan has always been “Die at my desk.” Speaking of that desk, it has always puzzled me that Olof’s work desk looked like a Staples office furniture ad but his home office resembled a paper recycling plant that had suffered a power outage. So I was delighted when one of his first retirement projects was to consolidate the work and home offices into a model of efficiency. “It turns out that you CAN reduce entropy,” Mr. Engineer observed at my gratitude for this.

“But you have to apply energy.” It is, of course, important to have plans for retirement. (A recently retired social worker friend maintains her goal is to “never help anyone again.”) High on Olof’s list is his version of pleasure reading, and faster than you can say “40 pound techno tome,” boxes arrived from Amazon with snorer (well, to me) titles like “Introduction to Queueing Theory” and “Professional ASP.Net.” After breakfast, he parks himself out on the patio, metal clipboard and mechanical pencil in hand suitable for diagramming and note taking, and happily wallows in technology. You can take the guy out of the office, but you can’t take the office out of the guy. I swear I didn’t ask, but he has taken on some of the household chores he used to do, like the dishes. It’s reminds me of when my younger son first got his driver’s license and we heard the sound of the car backing out of the driveway for pre-dawn Saturday crew practice and we weren’t in it. It was heaven. I have the same feeling about hearing dishes going into a dishwasher that I’m not loading.

Olof picked after-dinner cleanup, he As I wrote in a previous column, we said, partly because he read that, in inherited a set of sterling silver flatware recorded history, no man has ever been from one of his relatives.

¡Tener un algo especial!

Iberico is not your average Spanish gin joint By Kelley Carlson hen the sun sets, Iberico Spanish Bistro and Gin Club rises to the occasion. It’s the time when one of La Jolla’s newest restaurants really comes to life, said General Manager Carlos Aceves — much like in Spain, which is notorious for its night owls. Filled with natural light by day, it becomes dim in the evening with illumination from turquoise-colored chandeliers. In the main dining and bar areas, guests relax in cowhide seats and socialize or gaze at the colorful paintings, a mural featuring lions pulling a chariot and cases filled with empty wine glasses. Some people tune in to the sounds of guitar-based Spanish melodies. Soccer is the sport to watch, often dominating the four TVs. (Aceves is predicting that Iberico will be the hot spot in La Jolla for next summer’s FIFA World Cup coverage.) Outside on the brick terrace, dotted with red umbrellas and heat lamps, patrons wearing everything from T-shirts to suits gather around tables draped in white cloth. There are views of Prospect Street below and a peek of the Pacific Ocean. Heading toward the rear of the establishment, visitors travel through a hallway lined with matador hats and curvaceous bowls created from blown glass. The elegant back room of La Jolla’s only Spanish restaurant is designed for events and private dining. Its most striking feature is the mural of a bull, painted in deep hues of blue, green and red.

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story.

n This week’s recipe:

Iberico’s Tortilla Espanola

On either side are racks filled with Spanish wines; patrons who desire other beverages can step up to the room’s bar. “Everything is Spain, Spain, Spain, Spain,” Aceves emphasized. That includes the gin club, which is the first space in California dedicated to the gin and tonic, according to its website. The highball cocktail is all the rage in the European country and it has become one of those “must-do” activities when visiting. Iberico’s version features gin brought to the table in a balloon glass, garnished with citrus peels and botanicals; the server then pours tonic down a swizzle spoon into the glass. Among the specialty blends is the blush-pink 209 with hints of Tuscan juniper berry, cardamom, coriander, cinnamon and Bergamot orange.

When it comes to the cuisine, people can nosh on tapas and pintxos (snacks) or order a full dinner. The pintxos consist of toasted baguettes with a variety of toppings, held together by toothpicks. Varieties include the Berengena & Gamba (rolled-up battered eggplant with shrimp), Atun con Guindillas & Aceitunas (seared ahi tuna with a spicysweet guindilla pepper and green olive), Jamon & Chorizo (Serrano ham and grilled sausage with roasted pepper mayonnaise) and Tortilla Española (a soft potato-andchorizo egg torte). Among other light fare is the Gambas al Ajillo, shrimp sauteed with garlic guindilla peppers and olive oil; and the Gazpacho Andaluz, a traditional cold tomato soup with red bell peppers, cucumber, hardboiled eggs and croutons brunoise. Cocas make a great appetizer or main course, Aceves said. The Spanish herb and red wine flatbreads are oval-shaped and stretched paper-thin. An example is the Champiñones with Spanish brandy mushrooms, garlic, tomato and herb casse. But it’s Iberico’s paella that deserves attention. There are several types using golden Saffron Bomba rice. The Paella Mixta combines organic vegetables, Spanish sausages and fresh seafood; the Paella Marinera showcases mollusks, crustaceans and other edibles from the Pacific. Other entrees include the Langostino Iberico, sweetwater prawns sauteed with butter; and the sweet-and-nutty Jabugo Bellotero ham, carved razor-thin.

Drunken Papaya Cream

Kitchen Shrink Catharine L. Kaufman

Precious Papaya: Beat the rivals to a pulp

he powerhouse papaya is moving up in the tropical fruit ranks, giving mango, passion fruit and guava some stiff competition. The behemoth beauties, nicknamed “Fruit of the Angels” by Christopher Columbus, are starting to dominate the produce aisles and landing on top chefs’ culinary radars. Here’s why: Southern Mexico and Central America lay a solid claim to the origins of the exotic fruit with a musky aroma and buttery texture reminiscent of a liqueur infused cantaloupe. The Mayans revered “The Tree of Life” that sprouted the mighty papaya. Spanish and Portuguese explorers brought the seeds to all corners of the world, from the Philippines to India and Italy. Although Hawaii and Florida are the only U.S. states that commercially cultivate the fruit, it is grown in all tropical climes. The most popular varieties are the green-skinned elliptical Mexican papaya that swells to about 10 pounds, and the more intensely flavored yellowskinned Brazilian and Hawaiian fruits. These are pear-shaped with orangepinkish flesh, topping out at 1 pound (although the Brazilian tends to be sweeter and more aromatic than its Hawaiian sibling). Easy to swallow For tender tummies (and aging guts), the luscious papaya flesh (and leaves) contains powerful enzymes called papain and chymopapain that act as a digestive aid by breaking down proteins (even more potent in unripened fruit). By the same principle, papain has been used as a natural meat tenderizer for thousands of years. In addition, papaya is loaded with immune-boosting Vitamins C and A, folate, potassium, dietary fiber, bone-boosting calcium, blood-building iron, antioxidant Vitamin E, along with antiinflammatory enzymes that

provide relief to creaky joints and arthritic sufferers. This low cal, nutrient packed fruit is also recommended for weight loss, an anti-aging and skin purifying face mask, along with a salve for healing wounds, burns and skin infections. Words of papaya warning: the tropical treasure contains latex (particularly in the white sap), which might cause a reaction to those sensitive to the substance. While eating an excessive amount of papaya might cause an orange pigmentation (carotenemia) on the palms and soles. Standing advice: moderation. Seeding frenzy Every part of the papaya is edible, including the glossy black seeds, with bitter peppery undertones,

making a great salad dressing or marinade — or crushed and used as a pepper substitute. Scoop out the seeds and reserve, stuffing the hollow with grilled shrimp or chicken salad, wild rice pilaf or chili lime quinoa. Dial up chicken fajitas, stirfries, Asian salads or slaws with papaya strips. Do a riff on gazpacho with pureed papaya. Bake a batch of papaya and raisin muffins or oatmeal bars. Toss up a tropical fruit salad blending papaya chunks, mango, kiwi and pineapple, drizzled with Grand Marnier and a dollop of honey whipped Greek yoghurt. Cool your heels with a scoop of red papaya ice cream or sorbet, a frothy papaya mango smoothie or a frozen papaya daiquiri. Or eat it straight up with a splash of Meyer lemon

Samir Da Silva, Head Gaucho Chef at the Gaslamp’s Fogo de Chao has shared his sweet Brazilian treat. n Ingredients: • 1 ripe Brazilian papaya (if not available, use Hawaiian) • 2 scoops of vanilla bean ice cream • A generous pour of Crème de cassis (blackcurrant liqueur) • A slice of papaya, edible orchid or fresh mint leaves for garnish n Method: Peel papaya, remove seeds and puree in a blender until creamy. Spoon into a stemmed chalice glass or goblet, top with ice cream scoops, and drizzle with liqueur. Garnish with mint leaves, orchid or fresh papaya slices.

juice. You can juice the leaves or brew them for a soothing tea, sauté or steam them as a change up from spinach for an immuneboosting digestive oomph. Pick a winner Hawaiian and Brazilian papayas are ripe when the skin is a bright yellow hue. If they are mostly yellow with splashes of green, they will ripen at home at room temperature in a brown paper bag. Once ripe, refrigerate for up to one week. Pick a firm fruit that gives slightly to pressure, with a smooth, glabrous skin that also has a good solid heft for its size.

From 10 QUESTIONS, B1 Pope, Francis (because I think he “gets it.”) I would be included as the eighth person at the table. What is it that you most dislike? A sense of entitlement! After all, everything that we have and are is a “gift” — a “grace”! We aren’t owed anything. We are simply stewards of God’s creation. What is your most-prized possession? Although they are not “possessions,” what I prize most are the important people in my life: my parishioners, my friends, my

sister, Morlane, (she and I are the “last of the Mohicans” in the O’Donnell family), and of course, my dog, Monsi! What are you currently reading? My reading includes The Bible; “Paul Among the People,” by Sarah Ruden; “Rebuilt … Making Church Matter” by Michael White and Tom Corcoran, and “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas Fils (this book because I just saw “La Traviata” in Santa Fe — an absolutely splendid production!) What do you do for fun? I spend time with friends (one-on-one or

small groups of three or four) often around the table in a favorite restaurant. I also enjoy reading, listening to music (all kinds, but I am especially drawn to Classical; while Opera holds the No. 1 place in my heart), walking my dog at the Cove or WindanSea, and collecting Native American Art (especially Southwestern pottery). I’ll also watch sports if we’re fielding a winning team. What is your philosophy of life? Use the gifts that God has given you, wisely, well, and generously to help make the world a little better place than it was before you were born. “Not being able to

‘do it all,’ is no excuse for ‘doing nothing at all.’” What would be your dream vacation? My “dream vacation” is the vacation I’ve taken for the past 15 years: travel to Santa Fe, New Mexico (by way of Sedona, Arizona) for Indian Market, in August. Spend some time, while there, working for SWAIA (Southwestern Association for Indian Arts) which sponsors the two-day market, and spend some time with friends, catching up on life, at one of Santa Fe’s stellar restaurants and taking in an opera or two. Finally, if all goes well, adding a great piece of pottery to my collection.

Taste at the Cove raises funds for young injured athletes

an Diego Sports Medicine Foundation’s signature fundraiser, Taste at the Cove, took place Sept. 5 to honor heavy hitters in the sports and medical fields. The 12th annual event at Scripps Park featured food from 30 of San Diego’s best restaurants, hosted bars, a swimwear fashion show by Sauvage, opportunity drawings, and silent and live auctions. The event benefits SDSMF’s mission to provide a medical safety net for injured youth with limited financial means in order to return them back to health, sports and life. This year’s community legend honoree was former San Diego Padres right-fielder and Mr. Padre himself, Tony Gwynn. The 2013 Medical Honoree for SDSMF was Dr. Lee Rice, CEO and medical director of Lifewellness Institute.

65 years

Since 1945 · Bowers Jewelers

hen Ron and Marg Bowers opened Bowers Jewelers on La Jolla’s Wall Street in 1945, they could never have known that their business would later become one of the longest standing retail landmarks in the community. But 65 years and a few blocks later in the heart of Girard Avenue, Bowers Jewelers, under the ownership of Larry and Sheila Combe is a thriving La Jolla business. Bowers’ history is one of family tradition and loyalty. Larry’s mother Adele once worked as a designer for the store. Larry later joined her as an employee until he purchased the business in 1981. Since then, he and wife Sheila of 39 years, have been the go-to for La Jollans when it comes to fine jewelry, unique trinkets, jewelry repairs and exceptional, personalized service. With an unparalleled selection, fine quality and real personality, the

family feel at Bowers is contagious. Patrons are encouraged to pull up a chair while they marvel at the many unique necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings and time pieces on the showroom floor. The folks at Bowers remain true to their customers and work tirelessly to provide quality products at fair prices. Boasting a highly qualified, passionate and friendly staff, Bowers keeps the tradition of old La Jolla alive and well.

Chic Cuts for a Cause

Salon artist hopes to change women’s lives one haircut at a time By Will Bowen Artist and La Jolla hair salon owner JudyJudyJudy recently donated 100 hair stylings to the La Jolla Soroptimist Club “to help change the lives of women and girls one haircut at a time,” she said. The Soroptimists in turn, are selling tickets for the stylings at $45 each and will use the proceeds to fund a project to help stop human trafficking. The tickets, which are good for one year, are available at JudyJudyJudy’s salon or from Realtor and Soroptimist member Kate Woods. “All the money we raise will be going to help stop the human trafficking of young girls, who are abducted or coerced into sex slavery and prostitution,” said JudyJudyJudy. When she heard about the fundraiser, Woods said she stepped up and wanted to help sell tickets. “I volunteered because I am a Soroptimist, which is the largest women’s service organization in the world, and

Hairstyle Benefit Tickets ■ Kate Woods: (858) 525-2510 ■ JudyJudyJudy: (858) 456-2344 because I believe that women should be helping other women.” Lisa Lundgren is the local chair of “STAT: Soroptimists Together Against Trafficking.” She said, “The human trafficking of young girls is a very serious issue throughout the world and in our city, too. San Diego is now ranked sixth on the list of cities where this is most prevalent. Girls, some as young as age 13 and 14, are recruited by pimps and gangs and used tragically. The funds raised by the haircuts will go to help rescue these girls and get them help.” Because she just returned from a trip to Paris and London where she studied hair trends and participated in Vidal Sassoon training, JudyJudyJudy will be offering the latest hairstyles for this event.

“This is a great opportunity for me to practice the new styles, while La Jollans have a golden opportunity to get the latest fashion haircut for a fraction of what it would normally cost them and donate to a good cause,” she said. JudyJudyJudy will be cutting the hair of women, men, girls, and boys in what is known as “The Muse” style. “ ‘The Muse’ is a short haircut, with an emphasis on geometry, architecture, and buildups, such as pompadours. It has been described as ‘hair teetering at the edge between chaos and control,’ ” JudyJudyJudy explained. “The Muse style includes the ‘Soho Boho’ look from the 1930s and ‘40s, the ‘Downtown’ look exemplified by Andy Warhol, and the ‘Ye Ye’ space-age look based on early Beatles hairstyles. Inspiration for the Muse also comes from architect Salvatore Calatrava, painter Salvador Dali, and socialite, literary and artistic divas such as Nancy Cunard, Iris Storm, Caroline Blackwood and Peggy Moffitt.”

In addition to the Sassoon training, JudyJudyJudy said she also kept an eye open for all the latest in clothing, jewelry and art happening in London and Paris. “In Paris, women dress femininely and conservative, while Londoners have more of a tough, street look with big boots in style. ‘Sunnies,’ or round sunglasses, are definitely in vogue and jewelry has returned to the 1980s look, with large, bold, elaborate and romantic configurations. Men are wearing long, single-strand necklaces and hip-hop fashions,” she noted. JudyJudyJudy said she also explored the little known Parisian neighborhood of Belleville, in the 20th arrondissement. It’s the neighborhood with the highest elevation in Paris, where one can get a great view of the whole city from its vantage points. Belleville sports a large art colony and has legalized street graffiti. “It’s the real Paris, not a tourist trap. I would just love to have an art studio there,” said JudyJudyJudy.

The cast of ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ and ‘Travesties.’

BEST OF LA JOLLA

Coming September 26, 2013 La Jolla Light

Manny Fernandes

A common thread weaves two repertory gems together By Diana Saenger Cygnet Theatre’s artistic director, Sean Murray, will produce two plays in repertory this fall — Tom Stoppard’s Tony Awardwinning, absurdly hilarious, “Travesties,” and Oscar Wilde’s amusing classic, “The Importance of Being Earnest.” Murray said he directed both works at North Coast Repertory Theatre in 2002 and enjoyed them so much he wanted to repeat the experience. “We’ve been putting the two together as more of one big show rather than two shows,” Murray said. “We blocked ‘Earnest’ the first week and rehearsed a few days. ‘Travesties,’ a more complex show, took a few weeks to get up. Then we went back and forth rehearsing both shows.” The two plays are actually connected by story, Murray said. “Travesties” is based on the true tale of Henry Carr, an elderly man, who during his performance in “The Importance of Being Earnest,” produced by James Joyce, reminisces about Zurich in 1917 during World War I. Because his reminisces go off track, he confuses his own story with the plot of “Being Earnest.” Carr ended up in a giant lawsuit with Joyce, who won. “That’s the only thing in the play that is actually true,” Murray said. “Playwright Stoppard discovered this story and the fact that the three, luminary revolutionists — Lenin, Joyce and Tristan Tzara, who led the surrealist Dada art movement — were living in Zurich at the same time the city was a hotbed for revolution. ‘Earnest’ is an exploration of what it meant to politics and art, and it’s really a fan’s intellectual Monty Python circus. The plot of ‘Earnest’ is the plot of ‘Travesties,’ only the characters are completely different and the lines blur at times. “They each need to feel like two separate pieces of theater and stand on their own, and yet be connected, so the parallels that happened between the two are part of the

It’s not necessary to see ‘Earnest’ to get the jokes in ‘Travesties,’ but if one has not seen ‘Earnest’ recently, they may want to see it again in order to get more out of the humor.” What links the two plays is embedded in the plot of “Travesties.” Murray calls it “a crazy vaudeville kind of Monty Python sketch.” “Stoppard’s plays are the kind where you want to sit back, let it come at you and just take a ride,” Murray said. “ ‘Travesties’ has many facets, and sounds extremely complicated. But it’s easy to follow, a kind of an intellectual vaudeville, as a way of talking about some big topics.” Murray credits “The Importance of Being Earnest” with being one of the funniest comedies ever written. “Oscar Wilde had a real wit for laying open the hypocrisy and scandals of his time, but a lot of the things he had to say still abide today,” Murray said. “Politically, he was ripping at the Victorian class and social manners, and by having his characters speak with surgical precision through a silly love story, he was able to get away with saying things one normally could not say.” Murray said it doesn’t matter which play you see first. What patrons learn in one show has a connection to the other one.

Let’s Review

The Lady (Jacquelyn Ritz) easily handles the Nobel Lord (Randall Dodge) in the musical comedy ‘Man with a Load of Mischief’ by Ben Tarver at North Coast Repertory Theatre.

Diana Saenger

Superior vocals carry ‘Man with a Load of Mischief’

orth Coast Repertory Theatre’s musical, “Man with a Load of Mischief” (first produced offBroadway in 1966) delightfully turns a tale of what might have been into a tale of what is! When a struggling, small roadside inn gets an unexpected visit from some British notables whose carriage suffered an accident nearby, there is merriment and panic between the innkeeper (Ron Choularton) and his wife (Annie Hinton). He is giddy, dancing about with a liquor bottle pulled from beneath a loose floorboard, while she is snatching the bottle away and telling him they need to get ready. Before they can do anything else, a foursome comes through the door. The Lady (Jacquelyn Ritz) is a bit miffed by the journey delay. The Lord (Randall Dodge) sees much potential in the incident — mainly getting closer to the Lady, who has just run away from the noble life as mistress of the prince. The innkeeper and his wife are tickled to think they can create some romantic pairings with the four — The Lady, The Lord, The Man (Robert Yacko, the Lord’s valet) and The Maid (Tatiana Mac) so the

What they don’t know is that ambition is already working mischief of its own. At the end of Act 1, it’s evident the plot of “Man with a Load of Mischief” is not the main course in this production. What is, are the play’s 24 songs, perfectly accompanied by the cello (Nicole Krause), piano (Steven Withers) and woodwinds (Matt Best.) Spotlights work to create just the right romantic moments, seconds of confusion or the twinkling of some mischief. All six actors have beautiful voices. Ritz and Dodge create a harmony in “A Friend Like You,” so boldly and full of heart that

we are anxious to follow them on their journey. Hinton, looking far older than her real self and bearing the cutest dimples, leads off “Romance!” with every note sublime. Mac is superb in her squeaky, small voice, revealing in “Once You’ve Had A Little Taste,” that she will not be so easy to manipulate. Choularton is there for comic relief as The Innkeeper, and he marches to his own daffy beat.

Yacko is so solid in the servitude of his character we never see the twists coming. His amazing voice is breathtaking in “Come to the Masquerade.” “Man with a Load of Mischief” features excellent voices in beautiful music by John Clifton. The second act suggests that maybe all the mischief didn’t cause as much harm as expected.

‘Nature Improved’

Two museums partner for landscape exhibit By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt In the world of arts and culture these days, the big word is the “C” word: Collaboration. With dwindling resources and fierce competition for funding, many organizations have discovered the joys of sharing the costs and rewards of partnership. Starting this month, San Diego History Center and Oceanside Museum of Art will be presenting their first joint exhibition, “Nature Improved: San Diego Artists Interpret Our Landscape,” opening at SDHC Sept. 20, and OMA Oct. 26. They promise a diversity of perspectives on our region, with

each site showing half of some 90 artworks by 26 local artists. SDHC, which also operates the Junipero Serra Museum in Presidio Park, was founded in 1928, and is one of the oldest and largest historical organizations in California. Its newest executive director, Charlotte Cagan, is lead coordinator of the landscape exhibit, and sees it as a great step forward in the center’s connection to the community. “Our mission is to tell the story of San Diego, and an important aspect of that story is artistic activity,” Cagan said. “We chose the subject because we have a significant collection of landscapes from the

OCTOBER 15-20, 2013

past 100 years and we wanted to connect them with contemporary works.” For this invitational, juried show, submissions had to be recognizably inspired by San Diego landscapes, both rural and urban. “It’s a broader definition than what we might consider traditional landscapes, because many contemporary artists find the urban landscape challenging and exhilarating too,” Cagan said. There’s a distinguished panel of curators, including Derrick Cartwright, Director of University Galleries and Professor of Art History at USD; Alessandra Moctezuma, Gallery Director and Professor of Fine Art at Mesa College; and Daniel Foster, Executive Director of Oceanside Museum of Art. The lead curator is art scholar Bram Dijkstra, who curated the recent exhibit of Charles Reiffel’s post-impressionist landscapes, which was a collaboration between SDHC and the San Diego Museum of Art. “There’s a definite connection between that exhibition and this one,” Cagan said. “We get to see how contemporary artists are interpreting some of the same landscapes.” Labor Day marked Cagan’s second anniversary with the History Center. “It’s flown by in a frenzy of activity,” she noted. And there’s lots more activity in the works.

And in 2015, the Center will be heavily involved in the Balboa Park Centennial. “We hope to give everyone a sense of the bandwidth of the History Center,” Cagan said. “I believe we are the Smithsonian of San Diego; we have everything here that tells the story of who we are. If you want to connect with our community, past, present, and future, this is the place.”

Rock icon’s sweeping music fills ‘The Last Goodbye’ By Diana Saenger “The Last Goodbye,” which opens Sept. 22 at The Old Globe Theatre, resonates with the music and lyrics of the late singersongwriter Jeff Buckley. An adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Romeo & Juliet” by Michael Kimmel, the show has heard one critic call it, “the most thrilling rock musical of the past 20 years.” Jay Armstrong Johnson takes on the role of Romeo. Talisa Friedman appears as Juliet. “I played Romeo in my fifthgrade English class in Texas and that made me want to be an actor,” Armstrong Johnson said. “I had the part again during high school in a community theater production and still again in a student production at NYU.” After seeing the world premiere of “The Last Goodbye” at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in 2010 and being awed by it, Armstrong Johnson said he feels this show is his biggest break so far. His favorite part is the balcony scene. “I love height and danger, and climbing up to a 12-foot balcony is fun,” he laughed. “The concept of the production blew me away. Buckley’s music was so epic and poetic, and the way it fit into Romeo and Juliet’s story is to

Free forward the plot with songs that are specific to the characters who sing them.” Kimmel has taken a few liberties with Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” to create a pared down version that allows room for Buckley’s songs. Two-time Tony Award-nominee Alex Timbers directs the show. Choreography is by Emmy Awardnominee Sonya Tayeh of the “So You Think You Can Dance” TV show. Orchestrations, music direction and arrangements are by

Composer and lyricist Jeff Buckley died at age 30.

Talisa Friedman stars as Juliet and Jay Armstrong Johnson as Romeo in ‘The Last Goodbye,’ a new musical fusing Shakespeare’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’ with the songs of the late Jeff Buckley. Courtesy

Kris Kukul. “There’s no really big dance number, except the masked ball where Romeo and Juliet meet,” Armstrong Johnson said. “So most of the choreography is based on actordriven place; it’s subtle movement that paints beautiful pictures.” Buckley was a singer-songwriter and guitarist whose work in the 1990s was creating a huge following. In 1997, a boating accident ended his life, but his legacy continued to earn him top

numbers on the music charts, and Armstrong Johnson said everyone involved with the show has been impacted by Buckley’s music. “One night, after an eight-hour rehearsal day with Jeff’s songs, some of the cast members gathered in one of their hotel rooms to listen to more of his songs; they are so special. He was a brilliant writer and his life was such an enigma. Many of us have commented that sometimes we feel like he’s here with us.”

Armstrong Johnson said he believes this show will enthrall those who see it. “I think they will be dumbfounded by the music, how beautifully it fits with the story, and be amazed by the visuals in the show,” he said. “Alex is a mastermind when it comes to creating a world on stage, and along with the cast, direction, musical direction and choreography; they’re going to come away thinking they saw something very special.”

It is said that, in 1941 the Ford motor company produced an experimental automobile with a plastic body composed of 70% cellulose fibers from hemp. The car body could absorb blows 10 times as great as steel without denting. The car was designed to run on hemp fuel. Because of the ban on both hemp and alcohol, the car was never mass produced.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 888-210-6524 or visit this Internet Web site www.priorityposting.

com using the file number 13-01368 assigned to this case. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

LA JOLLA LIGHT - september 12, 2013 - Page B27

From Manta Rays, B1 Questions for study “What we want to know is: Are these distinct populations, or is there one global, meta-population,” Stewart said. The answer is critical to developing conservation recommendations and informing policy decisions to protect the species. Classified as vulnerable to extinction in the wild, manta rays are not captured for their meat (deemed of poor quality) but for their gill rakers: tight-knit, filament structures that mantas use to filter plankton from the water column. Some Asian cultures believe that dried gill rakers have medicinal properties. “But this is not traditional Asian medicine like the use of rhino horn or tiger parts,” said Stewart. “The market for gill rakers has arisen in just the past decade.” This new and growing market is possibly due to a decline in shark populations harvested for their fins, according to Stewart. Regardless of the motivation, the exploitation of manta rays is unsustainable as a fishery with several factors impacting a depleted population’s ability to recovery. These include the species’ long life, late sexual maturity (5 to 10 years of age), and a low reproductive rate of one pup, on average, every two to three years. Based on Stewart’s field observations over several years, he hypothesizes that manta rays belong to regional subpopulations throughout the Indo-Pacific. This is good news since smaller, regional subpopulations would be easier to manage and protect than a global meta-population.

■ The Manta Trust: mantatrust.org these deliberations).” The Manta Trust Two of the three authors of the study are members of The Manta Trust (mantatrust. org), a non-profit organization, established in 2011, dedicated to worldwide conservation of manta rays and their habitat through research, awareness, and education to the general public and community stakeholders. Stewart is a founding member of The Manta Trust and remains involved as an associate director. In August, he represented The Manta Trust during a special lecture titled “Manta Rays: Majestic and Threatened Icons,” at the Birch Aquarium at Scripps. Stewart’s commitment to public outreach and education extends to film and television. An award-winning videographer, Stewart spent a year as a Rolex Scholar (only one is chosen from North America annually) traveling the world, working with leading filmmakers, biologists and conservationists on the most pressing marine conservation issues of our day. Stewart has filmed for National Geographic and Animal Planet, as well as producing a number of independent documentaries and video shorts. These are all examples of Stewart as a trailblazer, starting with becoming the first person to graduate from Indiana University with a self-directed degree in marine biology.

Swimming with mantas Another factor having a positive impact on conservation efforts is ecotourism as countries discover the monetary value of the non-consumptive use of mantas living in their waters. “Swimming with mantas is at the top of everybody’s dive list,” said Stewart. In May, a first-of-its kind study (http://bit. ly/11cJgnl) was released that estimates the direct economic impact of manta-raywatching tourism worldwide at $140 million annually. This far exceeds the estimated $5 million fisheries would derive if they harvested mantas for their gill rakers and depleted the stock in the process.

The report also highlights recent international treaties and laws that owe their adoption to an increased level of public awareness of manta rays as species of international conservation concern. Among the measures now in place is a binding treaty, adopted in March, by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) that requires 178 nations and territories to demonstrate that any exports of manta rays or their parts have been obtained from legal and sustainable sources. “These measures passed due to public support to protect mantas,” said Stewart. “It is unusual that public opinion mattered (in

Twin sisters Izzy and Coco Tihanyi, owners of La Jolla-based Surf Diva, were recently featured on Yahoo! Shine – a women’s lifestyle blog on Yahoo.com They were part of an article in the web-series, “Secret to Your Success.” The surf school and retail shop met a niche market by starting out for women only, though the copmany now offers classes for both men and women. The Tihanyi’s were interviewed for information on how the business got started, how they operate (joking Izzy is the “Surf” by running the school and Coco is the “Diva” by designing the clothes), and how they attained success. Newsweek Magazine has called the school “The Starbucks of Surf Schools.” In 2005, the Tihanyi’s were named two of Inc. Magazine’s “26 Most Fascinating

Entrepreneurs” – alongside Craigslist.com founder Craig Newmark and Dell Computers founder Michael Dell and others — for “kicking sand in the face of conventional wisdom.” Of their business model, Izzy Tihanyi says in the video accompanying the article, “I realized that women want to be taught in a different way. We have a lesson plan that’s geared toward women where they understand everything before we go out in the water. … We take the pressure off.” Coco Tihanyi adds, “For me, it was really important to design clothing that would fit different body types and know that you don’t have to be 14 years old and a size two. You can be 45 (years old) and a size 14 and still have a wetsuit you can buy and wear and feel good.” See the video at bit.ly/Tihanyi
