‘Real World’ settling in as neighbors weigh impacts ■ Historical
society makes headway in fundraising Page A6
BY DAVE SCHWAB AND KATHY DAY Staff Writers On a sunny Monday afternoon, the street in front of the 6,845-square-foot “oceanfront retreat” on Chelsea Avenue in Bird Rock where MTV’s reality show “The Real World” is being filmed was quiet. “That’s because the police have been down here daily,” said Robert Asaro, a neighbor living across the street from the home, which he said is being rented for $45,000 a month to shoot the show. The five-bedroom, six-and-a-half bathroom was listed several months ago by Willis Allen for $50,000 a month. One TV shot from a helicopter shows a life-size
chess game — which replaced a tennis court — on the roof. A staple of the MTV lineup, it focuses on the lives of a group of strangers who audition to live together in a house for several months as cameras record their interpersonal relationships. It is MTV’s longest-running show, now in its 28th season, and considered to be a forerunner of the TV reality-show genre. Details on the actual production are scarce, with Tamika Young, spokeswoman for MTV in New York City telling the Light on Monday, “At this time we are This house on Chelsea Avenue has been rented to MTV for its show, ‘The Real SEE MTV, A10 World.’ DAVE SCHWAB

Heali’i’s Polynesian Revue stands at the front of a line of 250 surfboards measuring 1,674 feet that were laid out between Scripps Pier and La Jolla Shores on Sunday during the Survivor Beach event. The event, in its fifth year, shows support for cancer research to honors all individuals in their fight against cancer. It is allied with the Luau & Longboard Invitational, to be held Aug. 21. Both are fundraisers for the Moores UCSD Cancer Center with the theme “Surfing for a Cure.” For more information, go to http://longboardluau.org. More photos, A12 ALICIA SANTISTEVAN PHOTO
BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com Both sides say they’re disappointed — and confused — by the California Coastal Commission’s decision last week to postpone its vote on an agreement over public access to the beach below a home on Princess Street. The settlement with homeowner Ure Kretowizc would have deleted a requirement that he allow the public to cross his property at 7957 Princess St. in exchange for a payment of $3.3 million to fund access improvements elsewhere in La Jolla. The commission agreed to wait until July to give the staff more time to work SEE PRINCESS, A10
West Muirlands Drive likely to become detour from Nautilus Street BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com Just as West Muirlands Drive residents were starting to sense some progress in efforts to slow traffic along their street, they learned it may become a detour for at least part of the time while a water main is replaced on Nautilus Street. At a June 16 meeting of neighbors, city officials said they would
start the steps to raise the speed limit to 30 mph, which would then allow police to use radar to ticket speeders. The item is on the Traffic & Transportation Board agenda for today at 4 p.m. Senior Traffic Engineer Gary Pence also talked about another change that possibly could be completed in about three months — erecting two V-Calm signs that electronically register
and display the speed of passing vehicles. They are used to encourage motorists to voluntarily slow down to observe posted speed limits. But resident Nancy Gardner said she learned Saturday that once the street reopened it could become a detour during another project. “After three weeks of quiet enjoyment, even though our water was cut off twice, the residents on West Muirlands are afraid for their
ns ses e ing n n i n L u t h s t S Mattre d & Ba Be
m Custo
children, pets and property should the full onslaught of Nautilus traffic be directed down our small street,” she wrote in an e-mail Monday. “Most of the street has no sidewalks. We have no crosswalks. …. I hope the police with their laser guns will be able to deter the traffic in time to save us from tragedy.”

It didn’t take long for the new owners of Hotel La Jolla, Westport Capital Partners LC and Cove Equity Group, to start making an impression. A reader called the Light last week to give kudos to them for cleaning up the landscaping north of the hotel driveway on La Jolla Shores Drive. In addition to taking out all the weeds and trimming bushes early last week that had been hanging over the sidewalk, their crews were working on Friday on the Torrey Pines Road side of the property. Ure Kretowicz, owner of Cove Equity, says residents should watch for more as they “continue to fine-tune the hotel.” PHOTO KATHY DAY

Seaside Café to open at Scripps Institution Fireworks By Dave SchwaB daves@lajollalight.com Beachfront dining will take a new form this summer when Caroline’s Seaside Café opens at the Scripps Seaside Forum at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, uCSD. To be operated by Giuseppe Ciuffa of GCiuffa Inc. — who runs the Museum Café at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego Jolla and Giuseppe Restaurants & Fine Catering of La Jolla — Caroline’s will serve breakfast and lunch from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, except during uCSD holidays and campus closures. “We will have a full terrace overlooking the ocean with about 100 seats,” said Ciuffa, adding cuisine at the new café, his third, will be “Pacific-type, healthy California-style built around organic products.” With work set to be finished by mid-July, the opening is tentatively set for the first week of August, uCSD officials said in a press release issued Friday. An announcement about the café was made at the annual Scripps Day on campus Friday. It will be named for Caroline, wife of nico nierenberg whose father William A. nierenberg served as director of SIO from 1965 to 1986. “Known for his boundless curiosity and energy, nierenberg helped build Scripps into one of the world’s leading environmental research institutions,” the release states. “Although nierenberg died in 2000, his family continues its connection and support of
fund closes in on goal
caroline’s Seaside café is set to open in august at the Scripps Seaside Forum at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UcSD. Courtesy Scripps Oceanography.” Ciuffa talked talked about the look and feel of the new eatery at the conference facility south of Scripps Pier, which is formally known as the Robert Paine Scripps Forum for Science, Society and the environment. “Since it is an eco-friendly, LeeD-certified building, we want to keep the look and the menu organic,” he said, noting they also will use the indoor and outdoor café space for private dinner parties and wine tastings. The menu will feature hormone-free meats and poultry, locally grown fresh produce and seafood selections meeting nationally recognized sustainability criteria. Ciuffa said Caroline’s will follow a model
similar to his other institutional cafes, in that it will be “unpretentious and casual focused on the food — not the dress code.” The café will be open to the public and provide primary food service for more than 2,200 faculty, staff, students and volunteers at Scripps Oceanography. The building housing it was awarded LeeD Certification from the u.S. Green Building Council in August 2009. The rating is based on site sustainability, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, indoor environmental quality and innovation and design process. Ciuffa also operates the european-style bistro Sculpture Court Café at the San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park.
The drive for fireworks funds continues, even as plans are being finalized for the annual Independence Day fireworks display at La Jolla Cove. “We’re still about $2,500 short of our $27,000 goal,” said Deborah Marengo, a board member of the La Jolla Community Fireworks Foundation, about this year’s fundraising drive. Major donors to the fundraising effort include Jeff and Deni Jacobs (not Irwin and Joan as reported last week), La Jolla Kiwanis Club, Audrey Geisel and The Dr. Seuss Foundation and La Valencia and Hotel Parisi hotels. Despite the gap, Marengo is proceeding with details with the city and the pyrotechnic company that will handle the display. This year’s show is being toned down a bit because of the difficulties in raising the money to put on the show. It will not include a performance by a Marine Corps band as it has in the past two years since the fireworks foundation took over the show in 2009 from George Hauer of George’s at the Cove. He had underwritten and coordinated the show for 24 years.

Hillside Artisans Children’s Boutique opening in La Jolla Hillside Artisans Children’s Boutique opened last week at 7874 Girard Ave. next to the Pink Zone and Bendl’s Custom Shirts of La Jolla. A grand opening celebration is set for July 1, when they will have several special events, said owner Karen Dole. Known for its “colorful, fun, safe children’s items,” the shop will carry clothes, accessories, shoes and a few toys, but Dole said she’s not aiming to compete on that front with Geppetto’s down the street. They carry items for newborns through sizes 12-14, she added. The La Jolla shop is her third store, joining the original one in Mission Hills and one in Del Mar. In addition to the shop space, the store will have “event space” — which they also call a playroom — for special activities that encourage the arts, she said. The website says, “ … we hope you will leave with a joyful sense of color and play.” Dole signed a lease for three years and one and a half months. Mike Slattery of Cassidy Turley BRe Commercial represented the lessor in the transaction. The lessee’s representation was undisclosed. For information go to www.hillsideartisans.com.

Colleagues and friends held a party honoring Dianne Brittingham, retiring executive director of La Jolla Rec Center, at Hotel La Jolla on June 14. Guests wined and dined with Brittingham as well as signed well wishes on a La Jolla T-shirt. A veteran of more than 35 years service in the City’s Parks and Recreation Department, Brittingham worked for 17 years in Ocean Beach before being transferred to La Jolla Rec Center in January 1993. First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner presented a proclamation declaring June 30 as “Dianne Z. Brittingham Day” in the city. Of Brittingham, Lightner said, “Dianne understood the importance these rec centers play in people’s lives and how they helped connect those in the community with each other. I wish her all the best, but she will be missed.”

Historical Society makes headway in fundraising By Dave SchwaB Staff Writer More than three-quarters of the way toward its fundraising goal, La Jolla Historical Society officials announced Monday they have exceeded $1.5 million of the total needed to finish renovating Wisteria Cottage and complete other long-term projects. “Considering the recent challenges in the economy, this milestone is an extraordinary example of just how much this great community believes in the La Jolla Historical Society’s potential,” said John Bolthouse, the Society’s executive director. “We hope today’s announcement will be the springboard
to take us over the top to our $2 million goal by the end of 2011.” Board President Tom Grunow added “this achievement of milestones is important to every organization, big and small. But for the La Jolla Historical Society, a relatively small organization — today’s milestone is a very big one.” Two couples, Richard and Rita Atkinson and Dave and Sandy Coggan erickson, were singled out at the ceremony at Wisteria Cottage as honorary co-chairs of the Society’s Capital Campaign.

Disabled At Earlier Ages Are you having difficulties performing activities in your daily life? While the public may associate the term “disability” with seniors, the word is becoming more applicable to middle-aged Americans. Data from the annual National Health Interview Survey reveals that more than 40% of respondents between the ages of 50 and 64 reported difficulty performing at least one of nine physical functions. During the ten-year period studied, there was a significant increase in individuals from this age group who reported that a health problem made it difficult for them to stand for two hours, stoop, walk a quarter-mile, or climb ten steps without resting. An increasing number also said they needed help with daily activities such as getting in/out of bed or getting around their houses. The good news is that you don’t have to live with it. Physical therapy can help improve your life. At Ability Rehab we specialize in both Neurological and Orthopedic rehabilitation. Whether you have balance, strength, flexibility or endurance deficits; difficulty due to stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s or surgery – we can help. Isn’t it time to take that walk on the beach, pick up your grandchild, go shopping or simply stand independently to brush your teeth? P.S. “Growing old gracefully” does not mean accepting your current condition without question. Come to Ability Rehab and start living again!

All of the VIPs took part in the ceremonial cutting of a ribbon on a fundraising thermometer showing the rising level of community support for the Historical Society. The $2 million being raised allows the Society to finish upgrading the 1904 Wisteria Cottage, the ellen Browning Scripps 1895 carriage house and the 1909 beach cottage that houses the society’s offices and the historic grounds. The Carriage House renovation has al-
ready been completed and now provides museum-quality storage conditions for the Society’s archives thanks to such donors as board members and contractors Tom Grunow and Don Dewhurst, extensive painting donated by Chism Brothers and Peek Brothers; Las Patronas for archival shelving and digitalization equipment, along with notification by the Carol & Henry Hunte Family Foundation’s gift to the archival collection. In 2008 before her death, ellen Revelle and her family deeded the property, which had been in the family for more than a century, to the Society.
Nanoparticle delivery system makes advance in targeting of tumors Research Report
To date, the Palomar survey has discovered more than 1,000 supernovae, including four unusual ones that are among the most luminous in the cosmos. These new kinds of supernovae could help researchers better understand star formation, distant galaxies, and what the early universe might have been like. news release at (http://bit. ly/m3cYGc).
By Lynne FrieDmann
For decades researchers have worked to develop nanoparticles that deliver cancer drugs directly to tumors, minimizing the toxic side effects of chemotherapy. even with the best of these nanoparticles, however, only about 1 percent of the drug typically reaches its intended target. now, a team of researchers from MIT, the Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute, and uCSD have designed a new type of delivery system in which a first wave of nanoparticles homes in on the tumor then calls in a much larger second wave of nanoparticles that dispenses the cancer drug. This communication between nanoparticles, enabled by the body’s own biochemistry, was found to boost drug delivery to tumors by over 40-fold in a mouse study. The findings appear in nature Materials. news release at http://bit.ly/mxdrt3.
A new class of stellar explosion The Palomar Transient Factory survey, currently taking place at Palomar Observatory, is a real-time search for explosions of stars, known as supernovae. It involves multiple telescopes and a distant computing center that examines new images moments after they are taken. High-speed data transfer provided by the High Performance Wireless Research and education network (HPWRen) is essential to the survey. Based at the San Diego Supercomputer Center on the uCSD campus, the HPWRen network includes backbone nodes, typically on mountaintops, to connect often hard-toreach areas in remote environments.
How blood clots form Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) have discovered new elements of the blood clot-formation process. The findings help to establish a new model of clot formation. According to the old model, an injury to the wall of blood vessels causes smooth muscle cells to expose a clot-organizing protein called tissue factor. now scientists believe that tissue factor exists both on the surfaces of these smooth muscles as well as on circulating immune cells, but in an inactive state. In the TSRI study researchers showed that a cell-surface receptor (P2X7), which is known to promote inflammation when stimulated, also plays a major role in the clot-forming process by activating tissue factor. To confirm this, the team bred mice that lacked functional P2X7 receptors and found that these P2X7-knockout mice failed to form stable arterial blood clots when the vessel wall was exposed to a clotinducing substance. Importantly, these mice did not suffer from uncontrollable bleeding as a result of their inability to form stable arterial blood clots. This finding suggests that new clot-preventing drugs targeting the P2X7 pathway might not have this unacceptable side effect. The findings appear in the Journal of Clinical Investigation. news release at http://bit.ly/mgMQHu. — Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.

No charges issued in case involving flushing of seals By Dave SchwaB daves@lajollalight.com A citation given to a man for disturbing the harbor seals at La Jolla’s Children’s Pool in February was dropped before it reached court. Gina Coburn, communications director for the San Diego City Attorney, said, “In this instance, a misdemeanor charge was not issued because the issuing deputy determined the information received did not meet that standard of proof. no charges were issued and the case never went to court.” eric Bizzigotti received a ticket with a $500 fine from a national Marine and Fisheries Service agent. Bizzigotti said his young son and a friend, Dan Byrnes, were spending the day at the Children’s Pool on Feb. 20, when a foam football Bizzigotti and his son were playing catch with rolled down the beach into the middle of a group of seals. Retrieving the football flushed a large number of mammals in the group. The incident was videotaped by seal proponents who subsequently showed it to legal authorities. The following Sunday when Bizzigotti returned to the beach, he was ticketed by the federal agent. “nobody bothered to file any charges — it’s like the ticket never happened,” said Byrnes, who said his friend insisted, as a matter of principle, not to pay the fine and to challenge the ticket. Byrnes said court representatives attempted to offer Bizzigotti a discounted fine “plea bargains,” but he insisted on his innocence and a court trial. But Coburn, speaking for the city attorney’s office, said, “no plea bargain, reduced fine or other agreement was sought by this office.” She said 30,000 citations and case reports are sent to the city office annually to determine whether criminal charges should be filed. She added each case is reviewed by a deputy city attorney to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to issue charges. “The prosecutor’s ethical standard in issuing a criminal case is whether the deputy believes there is sufficient evidence to prove the violation beyond a reasonable doubt,” Coburn e-mailed. Bizzgotti said the outcome of his case leaves more questions than answers about appropriate and inappropriate behavior at Children’s Pool. “To me there’s no lesson; it’s still a gray area,” he said. “nothing was really defined. The lifeguards don’t want to get involved. They just tell you to stay away from the seals. nOAA (the federal agency enforcing the Marine Mammal Protection Act) will tell you we could give you a ticket if they (seals) raise their heads and look at you. I’m sharing the beach with the seals and the beach is open for public use and I’m just there trying to use it and share it.” Byrnes said he and other people cited for playing Frisbee in the vicinity of seals at Children’s Pool have also had their tickets thrown out of court receiving no penalties for their actions.

Transient arrested after girls attacked at La Jolla church
UCSD grad gets ‘Change’ scholarship
A 27-year-old transient was taken into custody by police following an incident that occurred at 4:43 p.m. at St. James by the Sea Church at 743 Prospect St. on Sunday, June 12. “A white male tried to grab two 11-year-old female juveniles and take them into a restroom inside the church,” said Gary Hassen, San Diego Police Department spokesman. “The suspect put his hand over the victim’s mouth and tried to force the victim into a stall.” Apparently, Hassen said, the girls yelled and the suspect fled with four male church members in pursuit, who subsequently caught him before police were called and took the suspect into custody.” Hassen identified the suspect as William Harry Marble. “He was arrested and charged with child cruelty, false imprisonment and lewd and lascivious acts with a child by force or fear, and was booked into San Diego County Jail,” Hassen said. no other information was available.

Scripps Health breaks ground Bishop’s School honors outstanding students on cardiovascular institute Scripps Health officials celebrated the groundbreaking Tuesday of the $456 million Scripps Cardiovascular Institute, which they describe as “the cornerstone of a comprehensive master plan that will transform the Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla campus and redefine health care in San Diego for the 21st century.” The institute, to be located adjacent to Scripps Memorial at 9888 Genesee Ave., will combine the cardiology programs of Scripps Memorial, Scripps Clinic/Scripps Green Hospital and Kaiser Permanente, making the facility the largest heart care provider in the region. Scripps and Kaiser Permanente, both non-profit health systems, recently extended their 30-year partnership by 10 years. under the agreement, Scripps is the exclusive provider of cardiac surgery and interventional surgery for Kaiser members in the county. “Our vision is to build the world’s finest cardiovascular institute right here in San Diego — providing the best in heart care for our community and serving as a destination for heart patients everywhere,” Scripps President and CeO Chris Van Gorder said in a press release. “Scripps Cardiovascular Institute will be a catalyst for collaboration, drawing on the clinical expertise of some of the nation’s most brilliant physicians and scientists, the most advanced technology and ground-breaking clinical research.” As part of its 25-year master plan for the La Jolla site, Scripps Health is replacing the existing hospital with three new hospital towers to meet state

The seven-story, 383,000-square-foot tower is scheduled to open for patient care in 2015. It will include 108 in-patient beds in private rooms, 60 intensive care beds, six state-of-art operating rooms, and as many as six cardiac catheterization labs with the most advanced medical technology.

Parents make a lasting gift of music to Gillispie School
SEMI-ANNUAL
SALE Going on Now
SAVE UP TO
Melissa Fay encourages the audience to sing along with the Gillispie School choir at the endowment celebration last Friday. ANNETTE BRADBURY By Jeanie Scott Special to the Light On June 16, Liam and Aidan Fay, along with their parents, Melissa and Todor, said goodbye to their elementary school days at The Gillispie School. In the fall, the boys will begin middle school. Although the Fay children will no longer walk the halls of Gillispie, their parents have left behind a lasting musical legacy at the La Jolla school. Melissa Fay, known professionally as Melissa Jordan Grey, fell in love with music during her own elementary school years and was compelled to pay that gift forward by creating an original music, art and video production at her own children’s school. Gillispie’s rich history was the inspiration for the professional musician and composer, who suggested the multifaceted project. After many years of producing quality videos for the school’s annual fundraising events, Fay wanted to create a permanent musical tribute to the school to honor her past musical mentors who believed in her own abilities. She was inspired to merge the history of the 60-yearold Gillispie School with the current status that boasts a $4.5 million Endowment for Excellence in Teaching through music and video. It was important to the Fays that every one of the 285

students played a key role in making the video either through art or music. Amazing things happened during the six-month production. The Fays spent countless hours in the classrooms while the teaching staff incorporated the recording of the video and song into their everyday academic lessons. Many talented singers and musicians were discovered along the way. The music video was debuted in front of the parents and faculty at the annual fundraiser gala and brought down the house. A week later, all the students cheered as they watched the final video for the first time during a schoolwide assembly.
Today, the original “Gillispie Song” is performed at important school functions, such as the Endowment for Excellence in Teaching major donor recognition celebration held on the campus last week. Melissa and Todor Fay are pioneers in merging music, video and technology throughout their careers. Their interactive music technology became a fundamental part of Microsoft Windows and the couple went on to found NewBlue, their latest venture, to create innovative technologies through its NewBlueFX line of video processing technologies and Vibop!, a social video app for iPhone and Android. Gillispie Head of School, Alison Fleming, said the The Gillispie Song “captures the accomplishments of Ada Gillispie and highlights the philosophy of our school — we love it.”

From Princess, A1 with Kretowizc “on a new resolution of the settlement agreement,” said Lee Mceachern, of the San Diego Coastal Commission’s District office. “They were very concerned with the proposal to remove the (public) access.” Kretowicz said he was happy withthe settlement, noting it is “our third negotiated agreement.” While he called the continuing discussions “productive,” he added, “The alternative would be continuing litigation.” Tim Lucas of the La Jolla Shores Association, one of a group of La Jollans seeking the route to the beach, said, “It means this beach is still private, though there is hope in that commissioners noted this is an inaccessible location.” One of a handful of La Jollans who traveled to the June 15 Coastal Commission hearing in Marina del Rey, Lucas added, “They (commissioners) recognized public access is more important than the mitigation payment — and that was encouraging.” Melinda Merriweather, a resident who watched the hearing via a webcast, said, “The commissioners kept making the point over and over that it was not their job ever to create a private beach, and it was obvious to them this is what they were going to be doing (with the Kretowiczs).” Coastal Commission staff recommended that the settlement money be used to re-
construct the Angel’s Flight stairway, a public walkway that used to extend from a path on Coast Walk down to Princess Street beach as an alternative route. Kretowicz has been involved for years in a lawsuit he filed against the Coastal Commission to avoid dedicating an easement along his property. He also wants improvements and modifications made to the residence he owns to be “grandfathered in.” Those opposing his proposal argue that a 5-foot-wide easement along one side of his residence ought to be officially dedicated so the public can get from the Princess culde-sac to the shoreline. Currently, lifeguards responding to emergencies can enter through a gate, which they have the key to. Mceachern, of the commission’s San Diego office, said the easement that was supposed to have been recorded many years ago by a previous owner never was. “That’s what we’re trying to get done, provide that area for improvement, and then some entity, like a nonprofit, can come up with the money for the necessary improvements to open it (beach access),” he said. But Kretowicz said, “nothing has been done with this alleged easement for 22 years. Why are all these people now intent on getting it when they didn’t do anything for 22 years? We’re willing to extend the time and energy to try and work through it — but we’re prepared to go forward with litigation if that is the only alternative.”

From mTV, A1 not commenting on anything regarding production of the season. This is standard protocol.” She said there was no scheduled airtime yet. Asaro has been outspoken about his displeasure with the show being shot in his backyard. “It’s inexcusable that the city should allow this without any consultation, any heads up, any reviews of what people think,” he said. “I think the policy must be changed immediately. They (city) should never be allowed to take it upon themselves to grant such permits without advising the community.” Asaro’s next-door neighbor, John Bannon, clutching his infant son while answering the door, wasn’t nearly as impassioned as Asaro about the MTV show filming nearby. “Traffic, noise, hasn’t been as big an issue as we thought,” Bannon said, though he added there is a downside. “Helicopters flying over day and night, a lot of speeding, kids coming up — just extra wear and tear on the neighborhood.” Characterizing the show’s impact thus far as a “minor inconvenience,” Bannon nonetheless said he didn’t like the show’s premise. “Drunken kids with their social-relation issues — I’d rather see the Discovery Channel doing marine habitat,” he said. Chuck Patton, owner of Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, a community meeting hub, who also is a past president of Bird Rock Community Council, said he feels some of the adverse reaction to MTV’s coming to town is a bit overwrought. “I believe the initial excitement or concern about it will die down after they’ve been here for a little bit,” he predicted. “Worse things can happen. Just speaking as a business owner, not living across the street from it, I don’t see a lot of negatives to it at this time.” Patton added the MTV show will expose viewers to Bird Rock, which he noted, on the whole, might not be such a bad thing. Rob Dunson, president and head of production for the San Diego Film Commission, said a lot of steps were involved in the show’s getting permission to operate in Bird Rock. “It’s a long and drawn out process,” he said. While there is no step involved in alerting the neighbors before permits are issued, he added, if there were “San Diego would be the only city not having filming.”
“The person who owns the home has a right to do this,” continued Dunson, who noted “the production people have been very cooperative, doing everything the Film Commission has asked, from insurance to indemnifying the city …” Dunson said the show would have a cascade of positive economic benefits. Their production budget is $6 million and they’ve booked 1,700 room nights for the crew. On top of that everything the producers purchase to furnish the house and use during their three-month shooting schedule is bought in San Diego, though Dunson did not have specifics on which vendors are being used. (He did note that they don’t have any computers or stereos that are likely to generate noise.) Some of the crew are regular MTV/Real World employees; others are hired locally. They will work eight-hour shifts around the clock, Dunson said. All of the seven people living in the house must get jobs here since the show provides only room and board, he added. In all, between redecorating the house for the show and returning it to its original state when the owners return, the process will take about four months, he noted. San Diego Police Department Lt. Jim Filley, whose area of responsibility includes La Jolla, said, “We’ve had no problem with the production company which has been hired to do this show for MTV. … They’ve been very cooperative with everything we’ve asked them to do, and, from a police perspective, we’ve not had any problems there whatsoever.” “We understand the neighborhood’s concerns. We are well aware of the situation and are monitoring it closely,” commented First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner. Her spokeswoman said they had received “less than a handful” of complaints and the film commission president said he has heard from only two people. Asaro said he’d like MTV to give something back to the community they’re using for three months or so to do their show. He suggested they might consider contributing toward landscaping for a nearby roundabout traffic circle that could use some updating. Dunson said when they last filmed in San Diego, they auctioned all of the furnishings and décor items and donated the proceeds to the Wounded Warrior Project. They are talking now about doing something for military families.

Alum gives back to UCSD with app for Stuart Collection UCSD now you can make your way around uCSD’s Stuart Collection with a new iPhone application. Developed at no charge by uCSD alumnus John VanZandt, the app is a compilation of short videos that describe each piece of art in the sculpture collection, from conception through implementation, and makes for a complete self-guided tour. Designed for iPhone and iPad, the Stuart Collection app is available as a free download. The idea for the app began some months ago when VanZandt learned about a series of short videos that had been created for each of the 17 sculptures and posted to the uCSD-TV website, YouTube and iTunes. VanZandt was impressed by how beautifully the videos explained the Stuart Collection sculptures, many of which he remembered seeing — and wondering about — as a student on campus. Founder and president of the software company CeO Softcenters, Inc., VanZandt offered to create an iPhone app for the Stuart Collection to make the videos more easily accessible to the campus community and visitors. VanZandt first came to uCSD as an undergraduate studying electrical and computer engineering. He completed his Ph.D. in computer science and engineering in 1986. After serving as an adjunct professor at the university and then moving into industry, VanZandt founded CeO Softcenters, Inc., a software development company specializing in helping small and midsized businesses create innovative software products, including complex mobile applications for iPhone, iPad and Android.

Large crowd shows up for first merchant mixer By Kathy Day kday@lajollalight.com A large turnout for the first mixer of the new La Jolla Village Merchants Association generated some ideas about how to improve the downtown area’s business climate. Held at Karl Strauss Brewery on June 14, the lively gathering drew more than 85 business people interested in hearing what the new organization is up to. In his remarks, President Phil Coller said, “People are not coming here to buy things, stay here or eat here like they should be … We need to look after the businesses of La Jolla. “ He added later that La Jolla has lost its “cachet” and that the group must work to change perceptions that there are parking and traffic problems in La Jolla that are keeping people from outside the community from visiting and doing business here. each business in the Village business district pays a membership fee with the business license fee, he explained, noting that during the coming fiscal year they’ll have access to about $350,000. “We have no intention of spending it all in the first year,” he added. What is spent “will be decided on your input.”
He encouraged members to become active in the LJVMA’s committees or to form subcommittees focused within a particular industry — restaurants, hotels, design district, etc. “Come up with ideas, “ he said. “Find out where you think you can contribute to improve your own business.” When he opened the floor to Mona Deutsch of Ligne Roset and Debbie Gilder questions, issues raised ranged of Refresh My Space. KATHY DAY pHoTos from wanting to know why the streetlights remain off on Girard and Fay avenues to whether it was possible to bring some sort of “trolley” into the Village. Some offered ideas for special events or putting up “thank you” signs for shoppers and to direct shoppers to stores and cultural institutions; others offered encouragement to overcome perceived obstacles to accomplishing their goals.

It may get worse. You may not need surgery to make it better.

If you have Dupuytren’s contracture, the rope-like cord you feel in the palm of your hand will continue to cause your fingers to bend toward your palm, and may worsen over time.
Ask your doctor about XIAFLEX®, the only nonsurgical, FDA-approved treatment for adults with Dupuytren’s contracture when a cord can be felt. XIAFLEX® is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with Dupuytren’s contracture when a “cord” can be felt. Over time, the thickening of this cord in your hand can cause one or more fingers to bend toward your palm, so that you cannot straighten them. XIAFLEX should be injected into the cord by a healthcare provider who is experienced in injection procedures of the hand and treating people with Dupuytren’s contracture. XIAFLEX helps to break down the cord that is causing the finger to be bent. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION XIAFLEX can cause serious side effects, including: • Tendon or ligament damage. Receiving an injection of XIAFLEX may cause damage to a tendon or ligament in your hand and cause it to break or weaken. This could require surgery to fix the damaged tendon or ligament. Call your healthcare provider right away if you have trouble bending your injected finger (towards the wrist) after the swelling goes down or you have problems using your treated hand after your follow-up visit. • Nerve injury or other serious injury of the hand. Call your healthcare provider if you get numbness, tingling, or increased pain in your treated finger or hand after your injection or after your follow-up visit.
• Allergic reactions. Allergic reactions can happen in people who have received an injection of XIAFLEX because it contains foreign proteins. Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any of these symptoms of an allergic reaction after an injection of XIAFLEX: hives; swollen face; breathing trouble; or chest pain. Before receiving XIAFLEX, tell your healthcare provider if you have had an allergic reaction to a previous XIAFLEX injection, or have a bleeding problem or any other medical conditions. Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Be sure to tell them if you use blood thinners such as aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix®), prasugrel hydrochloride (Effient®), or warfarin sodium (Coumadin®). Common side effects with XIAFLEX include: swelling of the injection site or the hand, bleeding or bruising at the injection site; and pain or tenderness of the injection site or the hand, swelling of the lymph nodes (glands) in the elbow or underarm, itching, breaks in the skin, redness or warmth of the skin, and pain in the underarm.

If you are told to stop taking a blood thinner before your XIAFLEX injection, your healthcare provider should tell you when to restart the blood thinner.

Do not try to straighten the treated finger yourself. Keep the injected hand elevated until bedtime. Call your healthcare provider right away if you have: • signs of infection after your injection, such as fever, chills, increased redness, or swelling • numbness or tingling in the treated finger • trouble bending the injected finger after the swelling goes down Return to your healthcare provider’s office as directed on the day after your injection. During this first follow-up visit, if you still have the cord, your healthcare provider may try to extend the treated finger to “break” the cord and try to straighten your finger. Your healthcare provider will provide you with a splint to wear on the treated finger. Wear the splint as instructed by your healthcare provider at bedtime to keep your finger straight. Do finger exercises each day, as instructed by your healthcare provider. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions about when you can start doing your normal activities with the injected hand.
Press release uC San Diego nobel Laureate and founding faculty member Maria Goeppert Mayer appears on a new stamp issued June 16 by the u.S. Postal Service. The stamp art combines images from uC San Diego’s Mandeville Special Collections Library and includes photographs of Mayer and her signature. It is one in a series that honors Americans who have made extraordinary contributions to science. Mayer was of only two women to ever win the nobel Prize in physics — the other was Marie Curie. Although Mayer forged a distinguished career before coming to uCSD, she did so in unpaid positions. uCSD was the first institution to offer her a regular faculty position, in the physics department, when she was 54. Mayer, who was a member of the uCSD Department of Physics faculty from 1960 to1970, died in 1972. Her papers — which include correspondence, writings and lectures, research notebooks, photographs, and other materials — were donated to uCSD’s Mandeville Special Collections Library after her death, along with the papers of her husband, uCSD

In people with Dupuytren’s contracture, there is thickening of the skin and tissue in the palm of your hand that is not normal. Overtime, this thickened tissue can form a cord in your palm. This causes one or more of your fingers to bend toward the palm, so you cannot straighten them.
Do not bend or straighten the fingers of the injected hand until your healthcare provider says it is okay. This will help prevent the medicine from leaking out of the cord.

From Detour, a1 She added, “That much traffic will be a litmus test of the repair and our patience.” In an e-mail on Monday, Ana Maria Rojas, spokeswoman for the city’s engineering and Capital Projects Department, wrote the water main work will require some rerouting of traffic, that might include using West Muirlands as a detour. The project had had been set to start this week “because the contractor and the city are revising the project’s original traffic control plans.” The change is necessitated “because the contractor has found the need to fully close a small portion of nautilus St. to replace the main. … the revised traffic control plan … will most likely use W. Muirlands Drive as a detour,” she wrote Known as Water Group Job 790, the project calls for replacing 8- and 12-inch diameter cast iron mains originally installed as early as 1950 to improve reliability, increase the size of existing pipes, reduce maintenance needs and minimize future water main breaks, according to the project website at http://tinyurl.com/5ssjg9o. normal work hours are expected to be
chemical physicist Joseph Mayer. Her archive includes correspondence with physicists edward Teller and Hans Jensen, at a time of great national and international turmoil (during and following WWII). According to Lynda Claassen, director of uCSD’s Mandeville Special Collections Library, the signature on the stamp is found in a book that Mayer used in her teaching. The stamp also includes a chart and a diagram illustrating properties of chemical elements and the model of the atomic nucleus that Mayer developed with Hans Jensen, with whom she shared the nobel Prize in physics. The Mandeville Special Collections Library is also the repository for the papers of worldrenowned scientists and nobel Laureates Francis Crick, Jonas Salk, Harold urey, and Hannes Alfven, said Claassen. The Maria Goeppert Mayer stamp marks the second instance of a u.S. Postal Service stamp based on images from uCSD’s Special Collections. In 2004, a commemorative postage stamp was issued marking the 100th anniversary of the birth of Dr. Seuss, which was accompanied by the unveiling of a bronze sculpture at uCSD’s Geisel Library.

Monday through Friday 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. The first step is installing temporary aboveground pipes to allow for continued water service during construction. After that, crews will dig trenches to remove and replace the water pipeline. The website estimates the work will be completed in September. Last week with a half-filled hole outside Gena Tapper’s home, the residents talked about problems on their street, which has become a popular way to avoid traffic near La Jolla High and Muirlands Middle schools. Jan Moorad, who helped organize the neighborhood meetings, seemed to capture the essence of the concerns when she said, “I’m scared too … I’m about reducing speed.” City traffic engineer Pence, Mark McCullough of the San Diego Police Department and erin Demorest of First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner’s office were on hand. Pence warned the V-calm signs might take more than three months “because you have to wait for the start of the new fiscal year (July 1).” The devices cost $6,000 to $7,000 a piece and residents want one at each end of the street.

off nautilus.) Last week the neighbors held their second meeting in an effort to see what can be done to improve safety along the street near Muirlands Middle and La Jolla High Schools. At the first, three police officers talked to them about how speed limits are set and made suggestions about what could be done. Attending the second session were erin Demorest, an aide to Councilwoman Sherri Lightner, and Gary Pence, a senior traffic engineer, and Officer Mark McCullough, a returning guest. They provided more specific details on what can be done in
the short-term as well as longer range and vowed to expedite the steps as much as they can. Yet they cautioned that the ideas must go before La Jolla’s Traffic and Transportation Board and the local Community Planning Association before projects can move forward. While the frustration of some who live on the street was clear, it was also evident that they were trying their best to work within the system. And some said they were also willing to ante up if it would help get things done sooner La Jolla, like the other communities of San Diego, must work within the

It’s hard to remember a time when uC San Diego did not sit atop the cliffs of La Jolla. The campus was established 50 years ago and has since become an integral part of the La Jolla community. Right before the community’s eyes, the university has been transformed from a fledgling campus to a world-renowned research institution. uC San Diego plays a leading and much-noted role in the biotech and high-tech industries, with our faculty, staff and alumni creating more than 600 companies nationwide, including many companies on the mesa that directly benefit La Jolla. Members of
the uCSD community have contributed billions to the local economy through innovation, job creation and spending.

Gallery owner says thanks As we near our 20th anniversary since opening at our present location in La Jolla, I’d like to thank La Jollans for your wonderful support over the years. We have just finished our latest show for San Diego’s award-winning urban contemporary artist, Tony Peters, where we welcomed the largest reception evening crowd in our history. Thanks La Jolla. We look forward to many more years bringing you the best of early California and pre-1970 American art. Keith Kelman Owner, K. nathan Gallery
what she was thinking? The letter last week from James Hudnut is typical of the drivel that is spewed by the seal (advocates). Mr. Hudnut wrote that if Miss Scripps “lived today she would no doubt want Casa Beach to be a rookery for harbor seals.” This is presumptuous and preposterous. Mr. Hudnut presumes to know what a person he never knew would have done if she lived now in-

Our service initiative Volunteer50, specially created for our anniversary year, led 3,300 members of the uCSD community to perform more than 62,000 hours of service, here in our area and around the world. I am proud of their accomplishments, and the achievements of the entire uC San Diego community over the last five decades. Service, like education and research, is the essence of our mission. And now, as we look forward to the next 50 years and the future contributions we hope to make, I thank the La Jolla community for supporting our campus, our people and our vision. And I thank the thousands of uC San Diego students, staff, faculty, alumni and supporters who’ve helped to shape our history and continue to blaze our trail into the future.

no on three stories in LJ everyone has seen those signs that say, “no Three Stories, La Jolla Deserves Better.” The city of San Diego and the La Jolla Planning Council discuss and argue about this issue. A lawsuit in the courts fought over it. I agree with the rule that you cannot have three-story buildings in La Jolla. They should keep the two-story limit. A lot of La Jollans live close to the water and like to see the view of the ocean from their homes. Buildings with three stories obstruct the best views of the ocean. Another reason to ban three stories is because people want to keep La Jolla looking like a village. that’s why the downtown area is called “The Village.” With three-story buildings in La Jolla, there will never be a village look. Politicians and developers want the three story buildings in La Jolla. I think that most of the residents, like me, do not. By Katie Fitzsimmons all hallOwS acaDemy, GraDe 7
city’s bureaucracy to get things done. unless and until La Jolla can figure out a way to become its own city — which the small but passionate Independent La Jolla group is quietly exploring — that’s the way it will be. In the meantime, neighbors who can find unity and the time to learn about the process are more likely to succeed than those who just show up at meetings and demand change. We wish the West Muirlands group luck as their requests advance through the system and we thank the city officials for their assistance.
the Children’s Pool is ‘gratuity to children’ COmmunity View by Phyllis Minick La Jolla resident Recently, the state statutes of 1931 were amended to include marine mammal park for the enjoyment and educational benefit of children, but did not change the trust’s words “bathing pool for children.” This is the wording on two bronze plaques at the Children’s Pool to commemorate Miss Scripps’ gift of over $100,000 to the City of San Diego and the State of California. Both governments accepted that gift in an enduring trust, which means forever. Current law states that “no one is permitted to exclude right of way to tidal lands of any harbor, bay, inlet, estuary, or other navigable water in this State whenever access is required for any public purpose …. (California Constitution, Article 10). Any barrier restricting coastal access violates the Tidelands Trust, the California Constitution, the California Coastal Act and San Diego’s own Local Coastal Program. Seals are not an endangered species at the Children’s Pool. Scripps oceanographers documented the harbor seal population in La Jolla as stable at 150 to 200 seals, with a migrating population of approximately 500 (Prof J. Moore & T. Linder, SIO, u-T report 5/24/10). By this May, 43 seal pups were born and survived at the Children’s Pool, an all-time record number. As a swimmer, diver and law-abiding resident of La Jolla, I ask the La Jolla Light editors and staff to provide fairminded reporting that acknowledges the law, the efforts of groups using the Children’s Pool to provide true facts about its sea life and to perform the only clean-up anyone offers there. Bullying should be stopped. The celebration to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Children’s Pool dedication was the only such event in this community and should be admired, not vilified.

OBITUARIES
Gethine Herivel Williams Brown 1909 – 2011
Gethine passed away May 16, 2011, at her home in La Jolla, one month short of her 102nd birthday. She was born in Wales on June 23, 1909, and moved to Pennsylvania three years later with her parents. She was predeceased by her three brothers, David, Peter and Kenny. Her husband, Frank, died in 2002 at age 90. Frank was from a pioneer Mormon family; a cousin had been president of the Church. They met in 1938 at a dance studio where Gethine was an instructor. Married for 63 years, they danced their way through life together. Frank became the Chief Photographer of the LA Times and also an accomplished pianist. Upon Retirement, they moved to La Jolla, joined the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club in 1974, and remained members for the remainder of their lives. Both were avid tennis and golf players. Gethine organized veteran’s tournaments, and together with Frank, they were responsible for the very popular tennis museum at the Beach Club. In addition, Gethine organized and presented the “Little Brown Gallery” in her home, featuring prize-winning photographs taken by Frank for the L.A. Times, and oil
paintings by Gethine. She was very much involved with the San Diego Institute for the Blind, and for the latter part of her life, was herself blind. In earlier years she had excelled as a painter during her breaks from the L.A. school system, where she was a Hearing Aid Specialist. Having graduated from USC, she traveled extensively, leading many groups to Europe and Hawaii. Gethine accompanied Frank on many of his assignments, including Hawaii before it became a State; Ecuador where he covered an ill fated group of Americans in the Galapagos Islands; and a series of stories on Alaska. Her favorite was to London and Wimbledon. Gethine was also an author with three books published. In this regard, she followed her father, Edwin Williams, an author in Washington, D.C. The family, Herivel, Gethine’s mother’s relatives, originally came from Alderney in the British Channel Islands. Her uncle, Captain Edwin Herivel, was President of the Island. Elected in 1950, and served for 21 years. Alderney is a mere nine miles from France and was occupied by the Germans during the Second World War Gethine told the story many times of her relatives killing all livestock before the Germans arrived. She was the historian of her family. Gestine and Frank will be fondly remembered by their many friends. They were truly a devoted couple. Always together, they loved La Jolla and the Beach Club and were willing helpers in all of its activities. At her request, no funeral services are planned.

Lizbeth “Liz” Box Jackson 1931 – 2011
Liz Jackson passed away on Wednesday, June 15, 2011. Liz was 80 years young and passed away peacefully in her La Jolla home of 51 years where she and Rob had raised their three children. Liz was born on February 24, 1931, to Evelyn Lantz and Thomas Allan Box as a fourth generation Californian in Altadena, California, where she graduated from The Anoakia School for Girls. Her parents instilled the family’s heritage of outdoor adventure in Liz at a very young age, and her boundless desire to explore the wilderness and spend the night in a sleeping bag under the stars never diminished. She passed away with camping trips planned for this summer with her sons. Liz traveled in Europe and Africa immediately after World War II and lived and worked in Cape Town, Paris and London. Later, while attending Pomona College back in Pasadena, she was introduced to the love of her life and husband, Rob, on Christmas Eve 1953 shortly after he returned from serving with the Marines in the Korean War. After their marriage, she continued working at the college while studying
for her major and pursuing her life-long practice and appreciation of classical music. She graduated with a B.A. in History of Art. In 1959 they moved to Rob’s hometown of La Jolla, California, where they raised their three children, Jennifer, Tom and Scott in the house they built and lived in to the present day. Their three children and two granddaughters, Sarah and Kelsey, graduated from La Jolla High School which Rob had attended as a young boy. Most of all Liz loved children and young people and giving them skills and confidence to venture in the wilderness with minimal impact. She exposed a broad swath of San Diego kids to camping in the West, later leading outdoor trips for high school groups, and finally becoming a river guide on the Colorado river in her 50’s and 60’s where she cherished the interaction with the diverse river guide community. She was always so proud of the neighborhood ‘kids’ when they each reached important milestones in their lives, and visited most of them even after they’d moved to their own communities. She was a life-long member of the Girl Scouts, was an active troop leader, and she and Rob were generous to ensure that Girl Scouts had outdoor sleeping experiences at Camp Winacka near Julian. Her granddaughters, Sarah and Kelsey, were with her on a camping trip when her 38 year-old 4-wheel drive Blazer, “Old Friend”, ticked over a quarter-million miles on a desert mesa in central Utah. She was very proud to share her deep knowledge of the West’s geology and history with her children and grandchildren. In her later years, after Rob retired, they travelled
the world with backpacks exploring the places they’d always found fascinating and to visit or rendezvous with their children. As she slowed down over the last few years she found great pleasure in time spent outdoors on their land in the local mountains with a view of the world. Private services will be held by the family. Memorials may be contributed to the San Diego Girl Scout Council, 1231 Upas Street, San Diego, CA 92103. Please sign the guest book online at www.legacy.com/ obituaries/lajollalight.

Interact club builds in Baja
n the weekends of May 14 and 21, La Jolla High School’s Interact Club built two homes in Tecate, Mexico. The homes were constructed using a novel new building system from La Jolla-based Icology Group. Interact club, a community service club sponsored and guided by the Rotary Club of La Jolla, has completed a total of 14 homes for impoverished families in the Baja area. Monies for the building materials were generated by students’ fundraising combined with contributions from La Jolla Rotary club members and the Health and Harmony Foundation. For additional information, see www.LJInteract. org and http://www.rotarycluboflajolla.com/

Group aims to create vision for San Diego’s future CITy NEwS SERvICE A group of 150 established and up-and-coming community leaders last launched “Our Greater San Diego Vision,’’ designed to create a long-term plan for the region’s future. The group, chaired by retired local Cox Communications head Bill Geppert, is designed to mirror the area’s demographic, ethnic, geographic and economic make-up. “With the region poised to grow 40 percent in the next 40 years — close to adding the current population of the city of San Diego — we need to start a successful planning effort now to preserve the quality of life we love for future generations,’’ Geppert said at a news conference at San Diego State university. Other members include San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders, management guru Ken Blanchard, Otay Mesa Chamber of Commerce executive Director Alejandra Mier y Teran, San Diego Asian Film Foundation Founder Lee Ann Kim and Jennifer Adams-Brooks, incoming chair of The San Diego Foundation Board of Governors. This summer, task forces will begin looking into economic development; education; housing, transportation and cost of living; and cultural and community amenities. Residents are encouraged to get involved now by learning more at www.ourgreatersandiegovision.org; participating in discussions on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ourgreatersandiegovision and on Twitter at @OurSDVision. The group will provide speakers for community groups and residents will be invited to brainstorm options during a series of workshops in September.

RBC earns championship in Pony There is something special about Pony baseball in La Jolla. For starters, there is no more fantastic field in all of San Diego. When you walk up to the top of the stairs and look down at the pristine field, it looks expansive compared to the other fields, and the Pacific Ocean makes for an unreal backdrop. The 13- and 14-yearold players look a foot taller than they did last season. When the Pony players are juxtaposed alongside the kids on the Shetland field, they seem like giants. Not as many players matriculate to Pony for a host of reasons but it comes down to how busy their teen lives are and how much baseball is in their future. Pony baseball is important because this is the primary feeder to the local high schools besides travel ball, and the coaches want them to keep playing and developing through the 8th grade. This season, La Jolla’s Pony Division is comprised of four teams with 48 players in the league. In order to keep things fresh, President Joe Smith proposed an extramural schedule last season with teams from North City and Tecolote playing home-and-away schedules with the four La Jolla teams. It was an innovative idea for rec teams to travel outside their home field but it made
everyone play better and see different styles of baseball throughout the regular season. This year it was the Big Red Machine — RBC (Royal Banque of Canada sponsored by Larry Andrews) — that led the league wire-towire. RBC’s juggernaut, scoring 192 runs in 21 games, came from the big bats of Luke Bucon (five home runs on the year) and Brandon Bonham (three HRs) as well as solid hitting across the line-up. RBC made short work of its opponents in the early playoff games, besting RGR 13-9 and Tecolote Toreros, 13-3. The championship game was played at the Pony field on Saturday, June 11 with top-seed RBC squaring off against the Tecolote Aztecs, the top team from the extramural bracket. In a game distinguished by solid pitching and solid defensive play, RBC outlasted the Aztecs 3-1 to become Pony Champions. RBC ended its season with an impressive 18-2-1 record. Congratulations to Manager John Zlatic and the Big Red Machine of RBC for a job well done! There was one extra-inning playoff game that took two days to complete and ended up with a walk-off victory for Pharmatek, but required a call to the head umpire and a review of MLB Rule 6.09(b) before a winner
RBC was the top team in Pony this season. From left: John Zlatic, Robert Fudge, Reed Wiesehan, Thomas Zlatic, Brandon Bonham, Ben Steigerwalt, Nate Gibfried, Zach Duffy, Mark Bucon, Doug Wiesehan. Top Row: Luke Bucon, Trenton Fudge, Ladd Castellano, Carlton Oneal. was declared. The game between Pharmatek and RGR started on a Tuesday and was called due to darkness in the ninth inning with an 8-8 tie. The game resumed the following day, still tied in the bottom of the ninth and Patrick Skeen was on the hill with the bases loaded, two outs and two strikes on the batter Max Scott. Here’s when things get interesting: Max Scott strikes out but the ball gets away from the catcher, allowing Scott to safely reach first base and Johnny Agbulos advanced from third base to score the winning run. After much debate, the final word comes from MLB Rule 6.09(b): on an uncaught third strike, with no runner on first base or with two outs, the batter

The Social Action Club at Muirlands Middle School recently raised more than $4,500 for the Uganda Education Project to aid 20 primary, secondary, and university-level student orphans in the war-torn region. The SAC’s two-week fund-raising campaign kicked off in mid-April. The club’s 12 members, under the direction of teacher/advisor Susan Minnicks, presented its goals at assemblies and classrooms, urging fellow students to help them raise the needed $400 per orphan student to cover the cost of one school year in Uganda.

Adventures in the ‘Jungles of Enlightenment’ fill an award-winning book
La Jolla Cultural Partners
By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Michele Hébert, a popular instructor at La Jolla Yoga Center, has been teaching yoga for more than 30 years. Now she’s the author of “The Tenth Door,” a book about her adventures in “the jungles of enlightenment” that may well be the next “Eat, Pray, Love.” Ask her what she does and she’ll tell you: “I help people transform their lives.” She points out that growing up in Cleveland in the 1950s and ’60s, she could never have imagined how she would transform her own, she had never even heard of yoga. She was interested in boys, cigarettes, and parties. A Catholic-school dropout, she married her highschool sweetheart. The marriage didn’t last. She spent years going from job to job, boyfriend to boyfriend. At 26, she had just accepted a grant to graduate school when she suddenly realized her life was heading in the wrong direction. Like so many others, she headed west, to California. Not that she did it the
La Jolla yoga teacher Michele Hébert has won several awards for her new book, ‘the tenth Door,’ including the san Diego Book Award. ‘the tenth Door,’ $15.95, is on sale at La Jolla yoga Center and warwick’s, where Hébert will sign and chat from noon to 2 p.m. sunday, June 26. More at www.rajayogis.net Courtesy usual way. She hitched a ride on a plane with the whole Cleveland Orchestra, scheduled to play a date at the Hollywood Bowl. Her father was a flutist with the orchestra, and the musicians were like family to her. California opened up new worlds of experience. It was 1974, and she was a long way from Cleveland. She made her way to San Francisco, where she met the
teacher who would change her life. Walt Baptiste was a bodybuilder, a former Mr. America who with his wife, Mangaña, ran a yoga center that combined weight-training and middle-Eastern dance with yoga exercises, breathing, and meditation. In his mid-50s, he was a guru to many San Franciscans who discovered him through the center’s popular health food
restaurant. “The first class I took with him brought me to a place I’d never been before,” Hébert said. “I started working as a waitress in the restaurant, in exchange for classes, and shortly after, I had an experience that connected me for the first time to an inner life. It was literally enlightening — I saw the light!” She describes her book as a teaching in how to stay centered. “But I do it through story,” she said. It’s the story that’s captivating, as are the characters she meets along the way. First in her years in San Francisco, then near a beach in El Salvador where she managed Baptiste’s retreat-in-progress, tending the goats and chickens, and supervising a 20-man construction crew (all carrying machetes) while dealing with solitude, sickness, and deaths, and armed only with her teacher’s favorite mantra — “peace, harmony, wellbeing” — as political upheaval began in the notso-distant distance.
Hébert calls herself a “practical mystic,” someone who successfully lives in the world and still keeps up her spiritual practices, someone “with both feet firmly planted on the ground, but a vision toward the stars.” She’s definitely in the world in La Jolla, where she lives with her husband, Mehrad Nazari, who also teaches yoga at La Jolla Yoga Center, and maintains a real estate practice, too. “I call it Higher Estate,” Nazari jokes. Besides their regular classes, the two lead international retreats at places like In-
dia, Costa Rica and, closer to home, Rancho La Puerta and Esalen. Readers are already asking for a sequel to “The Tenth Door,” and Hebert says she is thinking about it. And she’s just started writing a “spiritual novel” that she’s pretty excited about. But, before we leave her, what is the ‘tenth door’? The answer is in the book’s epigraph: “There are nine physical openings in the body. But there is a secret spiritual opening at the crown of the head known as the tenth door.”

Rockers get Zenbu gig; sing song about La Jolla By Jenna Jay Forget dinner and a movie. Dinner and chillin’, live music is back in town, thanks, in part, to the soulinfused rock ‘n’ roll duo C & H. The act stars “C,” drummer/vocalist Jimmy Carslake and “H,” guitarist Rick Harshal. The mellow rockers have become the resident act Thursdays at Zenbu in La Jolla, where they perform, starting at 7:30 p.m. C & H said they are tuned to the restaurant scene because their rock music commands attention without being the ear-ringing, headbanging noise rock that signifies the musical genre. Instead, Carslake and Harshal perform with what they call “low-volume intensity”; that is to say, to a certain degree, quieter rock. “Who says you have to play loud?” posed Carlsake, who plays the drums with brushes at restaurant performances. “Who says that even rock ‘n’ roll music has to be loud? People can talk in a place like this [while we’re playing], yet they are listening. We aren’t just like in the corner and on the mantle.” The intimacy of venues, such as Zenbu, and even Hennessey’s Tavern, where C & H has also performed,

slotted into one niche. We’re gonna let the public decide it.” Carslake and Harshal came together unofficially playing parties and other events in the early 2000s. The duo blossomed into a two-man band, recording original music and performing in San Diego venues over the last few years. C & H has an affinity for La Jolla and Carslake, a former resident, co-wrote an ode to the picturesque beach town, “La Jolla.” “We just tried to give the image of this great coastal town,” Carslake said. “The song says, ‘Come away with me, I will take you there to the Jewel by the Sea, a place beyond compare. Quiet conversation, a table just for two, I hear the music but all I see is you. Oh La Jolla in the night, she comes to you, La Jolla midnight rendezvous. La Jolla like a diamond pearl she calls to me, the Jewel by the Sea.’ … It says it all.” “La Jolla” is up for re-issue in the future, and C & H also has plans to do a showcase, shoot a music video, and record an album. In addition to Thursday night gigs at Zenbu in La Jolla, catch the guys on Friday nights at Zenbu’s Cardiff-by-the-Sea, 2003 San elijo Ave.

T
he 25th annual La Jolla Festival of the Arts on June 18-19, turned out to be a feast for the senses across the grounds near Scripps Hospital on Genesee Road and Campus Point Dr. Music greeted visitors from all corners of the show, the aromas from the food court reminded guests they could do with some refreshments, and the colorful art could not be contained under the small, white popup tents. Presented by the Torrey Pines Kiwanis Foundation as a fundraiser for San Diegans living with disabilities, the festival also included classic roadsters on display, artist and cooking demonstrations, community information booths, and shuttle buses transporting guests from the parking lots to the fun.

If you hosted a dinner party for eight, who (living or deceased) would you invite? The guest list would contain all of my grandparents and my husband’s grandparents. Both of us knew only our paternal grandmothers, but never got a chance to actually meet each other’s grandmother or any of our other grandparents. What are you reading? I just finished reading “Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother.” In it, Amy Chua presents a very different way of parenting from how I was raised. It gave me a good insight into the cultural differences

What is your dream vacation? It would be at one of those hotels where the rooms are all the way out over the crystal clear blue water with only a bridge to get back to land. What are your five favorite movies of all time? “Thomas Crown Affair,” “You’ve Got Mail,” “enchanted,” “Sleepless in Seattle” and “Almost Famous.” What foods comfort you? What foods do you crave? My mom’s meatloaf is great comfort food. I crave anything picy — especially Mexican food. What is your motto or philosophy of life? Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.
this year, the young seminarians studied church history.
T
he 7th Ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has provided religious education, aka seminary, to ages 14-18, for the past 50 years. There are 20 students in the class that meets at the church on 5151 Fanuel St. elmer Heap of La Jolla is the instructor. “Seminary brightens up my day and warms up my brain!” said freshman
Courtesy
Andy Chen, about the class he attends every weekday at 6 a.m. Sophomore Tucker Beachem added, “We’re all in it as a team. We all wake up early so it’s not as hard for me to go.” According to Heap, the very early morning session is an inspiring way for the students to start each day. “I like to think that we’re a team and the school year is a season. At the end
of each class, we gather in a circle and offer a prayer. After the prayer, we all put our hands together in the middle of the circle and we count 1-2-3 and we all yell, ‘Be STROnG!’ There is a sign above the door that says, ‘Play Like A Champion Today.’ As everyone leaves, they reach up and hit the sign. Then they go and spread the love as they try to follow the Savior.”

Grill-it-yourself stations add to the mixin’ and fixin’ at La Jolla Strip Club in UTC By Kelley Carlson idiner may be able to tell by the name alone that the La Jolla Strip Club is a little, well, cheeky. The steakhouse — named for its signature dish — pokes fun at the political correctness of conservative San Diego, according to Executive Chef James Stephenson, and is geared toward the 21-and-older crowd. For starters, there are a number of risqué menu item names — appetizers are referred to as “Lounge Acts”; there are “Sinful Salads” and “Seductive Sandwiches”; “Sassy Sides” and “XXX-tras” often accompanying “Main Stage Selections,” “Choice Cuts” and “Strip Kabobs”; and desserts are “Naughty Treats.” The cocktails are just as saucy — some of the tamer-named martinis include Blue Stiletto and Chocolate Kiss. Continuing with the “adult” theme, various-sized prints of seductive pin-up girls are hung on
A
walls throughout the establishment. A number of them are in the dimly lit main room, with its black cushioned seats, cherry-red tables and charcoal-gray, carpeted floor. A “wine tunnel” is in the center (consisting of 40 types of red wines) and at the end is the white glow of the bar/vodka lounge, with additional seats for drinking and dining, more playful portraits, and 100 varieties of vodka. Bottom’s up! The Strip Club often attracts parties — be it corporate, bachelor/ bachelorette or birthdays — and many of them often sit in the private Champagne Room, which accommodates up to 40 people. The red-black-and-charcoal color theme is prevalent here, too, but there are large windows for natural lighting by day. An enclosed patio is located on the side of the restaurant, where guests are free to play pool at several tables or watch the passersby along Esplanade Court. Look high up in the corners throughout the Strip Club, and
guests will find flat-screen TVs with sports programming — there are 20 in all. Further adding to the ambience is “younger, upbeat” music which “is a little louder than average,” Stephenson said. Perhaps the juiciest detail: There are four grill stations throughout the establishment, as the Strip Club is a “grill-it-yourself” joint. Two are in the main room, another is in the bar area, and there’s one for private use in the Champagne Room. Guidelines are posted at stations, so even first-timers can prepare their meat to perfection. “It’s a very social, interactive concept,” Stephenson said. “It gets everybody up from the table.” For a great experience, he said to bring a group of friends who “like to have a fun evening, sample different vodkas, and who like to master their techniques on the grill.” And in case you’re wondering, clothing is required, yet casual.
The enclosed patio has several pool tables.

Motor City Madness In 1956, Semon “Bunkie” Knudsen was given the task of improving sales of Pontiac or the autos would soon be history. Knudsen brought on Pete Estes and John DeLorean to form the team that did more than revive the brand. They created an image of style and performance that carried Pontiac for almost two decades. Gone were the iconic Indian head hood ornaments and the ornate “silver streaks.” Knudsen’s aim was racing.

‘Sustainable’ foodies break bread together at La Jolla garden party
Kitchen Shrink By Catharine L. Kaufman “To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.” — La Rochefoucauld Last week’s locavore summer soiree, “A Berry Good Night,” hosted at Michelle Lerach’s jaw-dropping La Jolla estate and organic garden with sweeping views of the Pacific, had a guest list that read like a Who’s Who of sustainable foodies. (See photos on Page B12.) The area’s organic farmers, purveyors, winemakers, brewers, restaurateurs, chefs and mixologists contributed their edibles and cooking skills to create a 12-course Romanesque food, wine and cocktail orgy. The theme, “berries,” was incorporated in both sweet and savory dishes and drinks, while lyrics by “Barry” Manilow and “Barry” Gibb rolled in the background. Here are some tidbits gleaned from this sustainably enchanting evening. San Diego has been
blessed with a bounty of organic farmers who offer their delectables at farmers markets and natural food stores, including Jimbo’s and Whole Foods. When you buy these labels, you are supporting these farms and treating yourself to fruits and veggies (along with pampered beef and chicken) that pass both a taste test and drug test. n Keep your eyes peeled for: 1) Be Wise Ranch, in the Rancho Bernardo/Escondido neighborhoods; Bill Brammer, a pioneer organic farmer growing pesticide-free foods since 1977, offers 50 varieties of produce, including strawberries; apricots; pluots and cherries so sweet they could impersonate candy; Technicolor heirloom tomatoes; a smorgasbord of crucifers; and herbs. Be Wise is also a member of the Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) movement, which delivers pre-ordered baskets of organic produce weekly to pick-up points throughout San Diego. 2) Chino Farms in Rancho Santa Fe, the glitterati of farmers markets, attracts both celebrity chefs and home-on-the-range cooks. Its bountiful beauties include squash blossoms, Jerusalem artichokes, strawberry figs, summer tree fruits, sweet corn and signature
Raspberry-Pickled Fennel Salad From Chef Trey Foshee n Ingredients: 1 cup Champagne vinegar 1/3-cup fresh, organic raspberries 1 fennel bulb n Directions: Combine the berries and vinegar, and infuse for one week. Strain, reserving the vinegar. Pour raspberries over raw, shaved fennel. Refrigerate reserved vinegar for making vinaigrette of your choice. strawberries, heirloom tomatoes and decorative miniature veggies. 3) Suzie’s Farm, Stehly Farms and Seabreeze Organic Farm are others, the latter in south Carmel Valley has been growing organically since 1988 — from avocados to zucchini, coffee, edible flowers and raw honey, and also does CSA deliveries. 4) SonRise Ranch, with locations throughout the coast, is a health-conscious carnivore’s bliss, producing humanely raised livestock,
including grass-fed cattle and free-range chickens and pigs untainted by hormones and antibiotics. “More important than buying organic beef is to make sure the cows were grass-fed,” said owner, Douglas Lindamood. “Organic cows could still be
grain-fed, that raises the acidic levels in their rumens (stomachs), producing an environment where dangerous, acid-resistant E. coli can flourish.” SonRise sells its products at farmers markets in Leucadia, La Jolla, and Del Mar’s Flower Hill. 5) Pescavores will appreciate San Diego-based Catalina Offshore Products. This fine fishmonger distributes sea treasures from southern California and Baja fishermen, such as jumbo scallops, lobster, masago and stone crab. 6) If your druthers are to be an armchair gardener or cook for a day, then check out Olivewood Gardens and Learning Center in National City, a sprawling farm donated to the International Community Foundation by John Walton, son of Sam “Wal-Mart” Walton. Guests can weed, compost, tend crops, harvest and learn to cook from creative local chefs at Olivewood kitchens. Back at the party, the 12-course menu prepared by celebrated chefs who volunteered their talents, included
a porcini mushroom flan with “berry sauce” (by Chef Jesus Gonzalez from Michelle Lerach’s Cups Culinary, La Jolla), artichoke tamales with “mixed berry salsa fresca” (by Chef Isabel Cruz, Barrio Star), smoked beef tongue, “boysenberries” and olive pie (by Whisknladle’s Chef Ryan Johnston), and prosciuttowrapped sea bass with “raspberry-pickled fennel salad” (by Chef Trey Foshee, George’s at the Cove). Libations and kitschy cocktails, like Joy Houston’s molecular mojita, were shown off by local, sustainable wineries, brewers and mixologists. A princess cake with fresh berries and whipped cream blanketed in marzipan came from Girard Gourmet. Our hostess’ generosity went overboard with a take-home party favor: a “Summer Berry Splash” cupcake, brushed with raspberry syrup, frosted with lemon cream cheese and garnished with berries from Michelle’s garden. — The Kitchen Shrink and Company maintain a food blog at FreeRangeClub.com

The JDRF Champion Award went to volunteers of the year, Steve and Lisa Altman and the Altman Family who single handedly raised almost $1.5 million over the past three years with their Rock the Cure event. This year, the event featured singer Colby Caillat and raised a record $510,000 for diabetes research. The Foundation also announced that its thousands of supporters helped raise more than $2.5 million to find a cure for type 1 diabetes in fiscal year 2011. This is the seventh year that JDRF San Diego surpassed the $2 million mark and represents a 3.5-percent increase over last year. Most funds came from The Walk to Cure Diabetes and The Promise Ball events. JDRF provides $9.9 million to San Diego research centers. The JDRF’s ongoing support of Scripps Research, in its 50th anniversary year of focus on basic biomedical research, contributes to the effort to improve the lives of people with diabetes. More than a dozen Scripps Research programs are working to solve the clinical and scientific problems associated with diabetes. PHOTOS COURTESY OF SCRIPPS RESEARCH

Have you heard about this amazing breakthrough in the treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy — that horrible burning pain and numbness that you can experience in your legs, feet and hands? It is non-invasive and patients report a 91 % satisfaction rate with the treatment for those diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy!
Amazing new treatment method relieves serious leg, feet pain and numbness due to nerve damage This Peripheral Neuropathy treatment program could very possibly be what you have been looking for — it’s not invasive, it’s non-surgical and it may give you the relief that you so desperately need. You can forget about popping mind altering toxic pills and struggling through the night trying to sleep because with this new treatment approach — for most people — they are a thing of the past. You are about to discover the best treatment for neuropathy that has been made available for years. Best of all -- you can check it out yourself for FREE… By Dr. Mountain
I
F you have been diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy you have probably been told that there is nothing that can be done — that you are stuck with it! Imagine for a second that there was something that could help? Imagine how your life would instantly change if you discovered the solution to your feet and leg pain. In this article you will discover a powerful new method of treating Peripheral Neuropathy (PN) that has the potential to be the solution for you. This incredible treatment is based on sound neurological principals that have the potential to give you your sleepless nights back — and here’s the good news: According to the Neurology Treatment Centers of America, patients report a 91% satisfaction with the treatment. How do you know if you have Peripheral Neuropathy? Neuropathy means “disease or abnormality of the nervous system,” which is not a very helpful definition. We think of neuropathy as any damage to the nervous system. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Herniated Discs and Strokes are all insults to different areas of the nervous system, all with different symptoms. Diabetes is a systemic disease that affects all nerves of the body from the brain, eyes and small nerves of the heart and digestive system, to the nerves in the hands feet and legs. The seven common symptoms of PN: 1. Numbness 2. Burning pain 3. Cramping 4. Sharp, electric pain 5. Hurt/pain when you walk 6. Difficulty sleeping from leg foot discomfort or restless legs 7. Prickling/tingling feelings I know from my time with Peripheral Neuropathy patients that they are initially skeptical, and many may pass up this offer just because everybody has told them that there is no treatment. This is very far from the truth. Recent improvements in technology and the understanding of Functional Neurology have allowed some doctors to treat PN effectively. Very few physicians have had exposure to this treatment methodology — even neurologists.
Currently, ordinary medicine has no cure for PN. The extremely powerful drugs dispensed to patients do NOT TREAT the NERVE DAMAGE! They numb the brain to numb the pain. Most patients cannot tolerate a drugged existence but feel they have NO OTHER OPTION against this horrifying pain. The medication by itself will do nothing to slow the progression or improve the functioning of your nerves, so your nerves continue to become more damaged and the symptoms increase. Usually the neuropathy starts in your toes or hands and progresses up the legs or arms — not a good situation. Procrastination is not your friend in this situation. The longer you wait without receiving treatment, the more time it takes you to heal. The point is, take action or at the very least entertain the idea. Allow yourself the opportunity to be evaluated. You may not qualify for treatment…but what if you do? Imagine having less pain and more sensation in your feet, legs and hands. How about going for a walk without suffering? Patients frequently report that they can sleep through the night again — how great is that! Here is what a few of our neuropathy patients have told us! “I had pain and stiffness and tingling in my right foot. My pain fluctuated between a three to six out of 10 for seven years. After the third week of treatment I stopped taking Lyrica (powerful pain medication) and four weeks later I have not taken any since!” Marlena F. “Before meeting with Dr. Mountain and beginning my treatment, I had pain in the soles of my feet, sore legs and feet and balance problems. I had this problem for 10 years. Since finishing my treatment I am feeling much better. I am able to walk much more steady, I have better balance and I move easily from sitting to standing. My pain is much less.” Roy H. “Now that I have completed care with Dr. Mountain my balance has returned 80-90%, especially when going up or down stairs. When I started my feet were 90% numb, now they are only 25% numb. A Million Thanks! Bob B.
These are just a few examples of how successful new treatment protocols are. Our treatment doesn’t just cover up the pain like a medication will, we actually make the nerves work again, decrease the pain and sensitivity and make the muscles function better. The really good news is… this is not something you have to continue to do for the rest of your life, so it is not a big commitment. Since I started using this new treatment in my office, I have seen nothing short of miracles for patients who had tried everything else with little or no results. Many had lost all hope.
SPECIAL OFFER
If you would like to learn more about the PN treatments and to see if Peripheral Neuropathy treatment protocol will be the answer to your feet and leg pain, you can — for FREE — for a very limited time. Just call 1-800-357-5578 within the next seven days and here’s what you will receive: • A consultation to discuss your problem and answer ALL the questions you may have about PN and the treatment. • A specialized questionnaire, to determine if you have Peripheral Neuropathy. • A complete Peripheral Neuropathy examination called “The Advanced NeuroFoot Analysis.” This is a comparative examination that tests all the different nerve types and is considered the gold standard for PN. • A “Recommended Action Plan” giving you the results of your examination, tests, and whether you qualify for our treatment program. Here’s what to do now: Just call my office at 1-800-3575578 and ask for a “FREE Peripheral Neuropathy Qualification Evaluation,” or log on to www. sandiego.nrvfxr.com and request a Free Report. It’s absolutely free with no strings attached. There is nothing to pay for and you will NOT be pressured to become a patient. This program is in high demand, I suggest calling today. Any delay could lead to being placed on a waiting list. The regular fee is $140-$240.

The fastest way to sell your home is the local newspaper... NOT the Internet, Facts and research says Home-Selling the La Jolla Light: 78% of the “home buyer pool” is local and successful agents use papers to attract the best leads— while the Internet is best used in a “support” role The biggest problem with listing your home on the internet is this...the internet is huge! It would take hours to find all the available listings of homes for sale in this town—if you could even find them all...which you can’t. This is no doubt why Borrell Associates, the nationally known research firm reports that 66% of Americans rely on their local newspaper to buy and sell their homes, compared with only 20% using the internet. The biggest reason that a paper like the La Jolla Light is such a powerful lead generating tool for agents, is the paper’s long-term credibility with readers. When your home is listed or shown in this paper, it benefits from the paper’s thorough reporting and “believability”.
✔ 70% - 80% of home-buyers, buy locally. ✔ The La Jolla Light is delivered by the Postal Service ... to each resident’s home. ✔ Those most likely to purchase your home read The Light. ✔ Each week The Light features HOMES SOLD in 92037 and their actual price. ✔ The Light and it’s sister publications, reaches 9 of the 10 wealthiest zip codes in San Diego. ✔ These publications reach 200,000 “qualified” home buyers—every week. ✔ Serious home buyers are reading these publications to find “prestigious” homes & estates, like yours. ✔ The top agents in La Jolla advertise in The Light, because it sells homes. Ask your agent if they are using the La Jolla Light and sister publications. If not, have your agent call the La Jolla Light at 858-875-5945 and ask for Claire to get your home sold faster.

Prudential California Realty honored for charity efforts Prudential California Realty was recently honored for raising more than $116,000 in 2010 to support the Sunshine Kids Foundation, a charity dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for children receiving cancer treatments. For the amount of contributions that were allocated to the charity, Prudential California Realty ranked no. 5, out of Prudential Real estate’s nationwide network of independently owned brokerages. “The generosity exhibited by Prudential California Realty is an inspiration to all of us in the Sunshine Kids family,” noted G.W. Bailey, executive director of the Sunshine Kids Foundation. “Contributions like these will allow us to expand our services and make a positive impact on the lives of even more young cancer patients.” Highlights of Prudential’s efforts during 2010 to support the foundation and its mission included a Texas Hold ‘em style poker tournament at Viejas Casino, a night out at the Padre game for agents, employees and their families, and a two-hour surfing lesson for more than 30 children with cancer at the Pacific Beach Surf School. Realtor Jim Stinnett was instrumental in creating the poker tournament, which raised more than $4,200; Prudential received assistance from HomeServices Lending, Pickford escrow and The escrow Firm to sponsor the Padre game event.
Prudential’s Tash Team is honored with Diamond Award Betty Toroyan and Barry Tashakorian of Prudential California Realty’s La Jolla office earned the Chairman’s Circle Diamond award for their sales performance during 2010. The achievement ranks Toroyan and Tashakorian, who are known as the Tash Team, in the top one half of 1 percent of more than 54,000 Prudential agents nationwide. Their sales production last year also ranked them at the no. 13 position, out of all of Prudential’s agents in San Diego County. Tashakorian, a La Jolla resident for 31 years, and Toroyan, who has 18 years in the industry, apply a team-based approach to real estate transactions. As the leaders of a team of eight licensed professionals, they specialize in the purchase and sale of investment properties, short sales, fine homes, coastal estates and foreclosures.
