Stingrays beware: Humans are coming! By Patricia B. Dwyer t seems every summer stingrays flock to San Diego’s coastline to ruin beachgoers’ days and stress out the lifeguards. But these coastal critters most likely see the season as more of a warzone than we do. “The stingray is a cool guy — he’s just hanging out in the shallow water, enjoying the sunshine,” Justin Baar, lead surf instructor at the Mission Bay Aquatic Center, says to his surf class of 9-and 10-year-olds. “And what would you do if Andre the Giant came and stepped on your face while you were getting some sun? You’d smack him!” This year’s count hasn’t begun to near last year’s tally of stingray incidents — which included a one-day surge at La Jolla Shores — but the local water temperature is reaching into the high 60s and the months of potential stingray mayhem are just around the corner. As tourists eye the water’s edge apprehensively, there a few tips that can make a tromp into the shore break all the more enjoyable. n The stingray shuffle works. Something so simple sounds like an aged wives’ tale, but the motion actually sends vibrations through the sand that lets a stingray know something is approaching and to clear the scene. “We are coming out of nowhere and they are just sort of hanging out,” said Kristin Evans, education director at Birch Aquarium.

‘Real World’ producers ease neighbor concerns By Dave SchwaB daves@lajollalight.com Producers of the MTV show “The Real World” currently being filmed at an oceanfront home in Bird Rock, agreed last week to concessions demanded by neighbors to compensate them for problems associated with traffic, noise, lighting, security and safety caused by the show. “At the recommendation of the police department, the producers will be funding one uniformed police officer with a patrol car who will be stationed at the roundabout entrance to the neighborhood each night, and who will remain there until 4 a.m.,” said First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner following negotiations between her staff, the show’s producers, the film commission and the police. Lightner said she also relayed to the producers neighbors’ requests to shield See Mtv, a20

Ponies are off and running for 72nd season in Del Mar By Kelley carlSon It’s that time of year again — break out the tip sheets, dig into your pockets for some cash, hope that No. 3 will be the winner of the second race, try to look as cool as possible as you’re yelling at the top of your lungs — it’s Del Mar season. The horses will be off and running starting July 20, with live racing five days each week on average (Wednesdays through Sundays, with the exception of a Labor Day Monday card) through Sept. 7. There will be eight, Grade I events, drawing some of the nation’s top thoroughbreds. The meet’s signature race, the $1 million TVG Pacific Classic (Grade I), is Aug. 28.
Fields could potentially be larger this season, as Del Mar has started a “Ship and Win” program that awards incentives to owners from out-of-state who start runners at the track. More horses in a race usually mean better wagering opportunities and can lead to higher purses, said Tom Robbins, Del Mar Thoroughbred Club’s executive vicepresident for racing, in a news release. “We’re encouraged by the response we’ve gotten so far,” said Mac McBride, director of media for the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. “There’s at least a half-dozen trainers with serious strings (10-plus runners). We’re ready to rock and roll.”

racing at Del Mar will continue until Sept. 7. file

Residential designer to discuss Wright’s work for lecture series BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com The topic of Spencer Lake’s speech, the sixth in La Jolla Historical Society’s 10-part Contemporary Architects Making History 2011 Lecture Series, is a preoccupation of his — famed American architect Frank Lloyd Wright who died in 1959 at age 91. “Some consider him to be the greatest American architect and rank him right up there with Thomas Jefferson,” said Lake. “He was labeled a titan in the field in his own lifetime.” Lake will discuss Wright and his impact on La Jolla architecture at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 21 at the Wisteria Cottage, 780 Prospect St. A residential design professional and self-avowed “accidental historian,” Lake noted Wright and his work has been a subject of study for him for 50 years. Lake said he has an interesting, “layered” story to tell about Wright’s trips to San Diego, and his personal and professional lives. “I’m going to talk about the architects in San Diego who were influenced, either directly or indirectly, by Wright,” he said, adding he’s going to attempt to place Wright and his architectural style in the physical and historical

setting of San Diego. “When historians want to really tackle a subject, they almost have to step into H.G. Wells’ time machine and go back into the past and study what shaped history,” he said. Lake will give a slideshow presentation on Wright with a questionand-answer session afterward. One of the most noteworthy things about Wright and his architecture, in Lake’s view, is that Wright was ahead of his time. “He was interested in ecology and the environment, his work was hooked into the environment, it has the character of the landscape,” he said. “His interiors and exteriors, the boundaries between them just seem to vanish. Not a lot of architects had the same emphasis at that time.” Born in Ohio and the son of a newspaperman, Lake graduated in

From races, a1 There will be two new wagers during the meeting, in addition to the seaside oval’s usual types of bets. The Pick Five will involve selecting winners of the first five races, with a minimum 50-cent wager. There will also be a head-to-head bet during the featured race each Saturday; Del Mar’s racing office will select the two horses from which bettors can choose. The track will also offer a guaranteed Pick Six carryover on Sundays with $50,000 in the pool at the start. Concerts have a new, larger home at the far western end of the facility, known as the Seaside Stage. The 120,000-square-foot area contains foliage purchased from the “Jurassic Park” movie sets, according to McBride, and will have a large LED screen and 45 betting windows. Ziggy Marley, Jimmy Eat World and Ben Harper are just a few of the acts slated during
the season. “This is absolutely by far and away the best musical lineup we’ve ever had,” McBride said. There is no additional charge for the concerts that are held after the last race of the day. However, guests who arrive to the track after the final race will have to shell out $20 for concert admission. Other areas around the oval that have received makeovers include the Pacific Classic Pub, formerly known as the Best Pal Pub, which includes race memorabilia and photos of all 20 winners; and the Celebrity Grill, now a gastro restaurant featuring foods such as sliders, bar snacks and specialty salads on the third floor of the clubhouse.

The top finalists will receive a “Day at Del Mar” package. A day at Del Mar can be fairly inexpensive and provide a good “stay-cation” option, McBride said. “You can soak up the atmosphere and spend a day in the sun,” he said. “We’re hopeful that this will be a good season. We see positive signs.”
Real Estate
T O D A Y by Janet Douglas Six Reasons to Reduce Your Home Price 1) You are drawing few lookers 2) You are drawing lots of lookers but have no offers. Agents may be showing your home to compare it to a better priced neighboring home. 3) Has your home been on the market longer than similar homes? When a home sits on the market, buyers can begin to wonder if there is something wrong with it. 4) You have a deadline. If you have to sell soon because of a job transfer or you purchased another home, you need to generate buyer interest by dropping your price. Remember it is not how much money you need that determines the sale price of your home, it is how much money a buyer is willing to pay for your home. 5) If your agent reports that buyers are saying your home is not as well appointed as similarly priced homes and you do not want to paint or replace carpets, it is time to accept that buyers expect to pay less for your home because it does not show as well as others. 6) The competition may have changed. If more homes have come on the market since you listed and their prices are lower or they offer more amenities for the same price, perhaps it is time to lower your price. It is important to listen to what the market is telling you if you really want to sell.

the sting. This cramping is what spurs the pain associated with a stingray wound. Luckily, simple heat breaks down this toxin and is the fastest and most effective form of relief. “We generally immerse their foot in extremely hot water, or in as hot of water as they can stand,” said lifeguard Lt. Nick Lerma. “This break down the toxins in about an hour period, and once the pain subsides you stop treatment.” n There is no concrete research that suggests stingrays migrate to the San Diego coastline every summer. Rather, it’s more likely that people are the ones doing the seasonal migration and crowd the stingrays in

But these are just tales. “They can certainly give an infection, but I think two or three times in 20 years have I seen a barb break off,” said Lerma. There is nothing about the bacteria on a stingray’s barb that is particularly infectious that separates it from any other wound a person might incur. General first-aid precautions should be taken, but nothing beyond that is required in most cases.

Parks’ rule limits permits for Children’s Pool vendors to just ‘two’ By Terry rodgers Children’s Pool beach, the epicenter of a longstanding controversy over a colony of harbor seals, has been invaded by a different species: Vendors hawking hats, T-shirts and other merchandise. In response, the San Diego Parks & Recreation Department issued new rules last December that limit to two the number of permits for so-called First Amendment vendors at Children’s Pool. Nonprofit groups wishing to set up tables on the sidewalk near the stairways leading to the beach must compete under a lottery system for monthly permits that cost $50. Despite the new permit requirements, little has changed at the beach that each week attracts thousands of visitors. People come to watch the seals, to stroll along the crescent-shaped seawall, or, much to the consternation of animal-rights activists, to frolic on the beach near the skittish seals. Tables set up by non-profit groups, or others whose primary interest appears to be making money, add to the carnival atmosphere. Some vendors have permits, but others do not. City officials confirmed that no one has been cited for violating the new rules, but neither Parks Director Stacey loMedico or City Attorney Jan Goldsmith would grant an interview to explain why. “We will decline comment beyond what we have already provided given our workload,” City Attorney spokeswoman Gina Coburn responded in an e-mail. Goldsmith also declined to provide any
documents, including e-mails or memos, showing how the new rules were established or how it was determined the regulations comply with recent court rulings regarding free speech requirements under the u.S. Constitution. Goldsmith’s staff denied two requests under the California Public Records Act, contending that all internal documents on the topic were exempt from disclosure because they were either ”attorney-client confidential communications” or “working product” not in final draft form. Attorney Bryan Pease, founder of the San Diego-based Animal Protection and Rescue league, whose organization has staffed a table at Children’s Pool for at least the past five years, said city officials aren’t eager to explain the new permit requirements because it’s highly likely they would be struck down by the courts as unconstitutional. A court recently struck down a similar lottery-based permit system that the city of los Angeles had established for free speech groups at the famous Venice Beach boardwalk, Pease said. Pease has more than a little expertise on the topic. In 2006, he successfully challenged a citation issued by lifeguards to an Animal Protection and Rescue league staffer. The activist had set up a table to distribute literature and accept donations for the group’s longstanding crusade to protect the harbor seals. A state judge who heard the case ruled that Section 57.01 of the San Di-
ego Municipal Code, which regulates nonprofit or charitable groups in public areas, was unconstitutional. The Animal Protection and Rescue league is simply ignoring San Diego’s new permit requirements, and so far enforcement authorities, including lifeguards and police, have looked the other way. A spokesperson for 1st District Councilwoman Sherri lightner, who represents la Jolla, said she was unavailable to answer questions on the issue because of a hectic schedule. Children’s Pool isn’t the only San Diego oceanfront park now governed by the lottery permit system. Three free speech tables are allowed at Ellen Browning Scripps Park near la Jolla Cove, and one table is allowed along the boardwalk in both Mission Beach and Pacific Beach. Parks officials said they have been granting permits and collecting fees at each of the sites where they are allowed. The San Diego City Council has never voted on the new regulations, which were put into place by parks officials under authority granted to them by existing city ordinances, said Rachel laing, a spokesperson for Mayor Jerry Sanders. “This permit process did not require council authorization,” laing said in an e-mail. “It’s a process that’s been used in other city spots, i.e. Balboa Park, quite successfully to prevent a bazaar-like atmosphere in some cases, and, as in this place (Children’s Pool), to keep the right-of-way from being blocked.”

A vender talks to visitors near Children’s Pool. File Some la Jollans are not satisfied with the apparent stalemate over the free speech tables. Mt. Soledad resident Phyllis Minick, a member of the la Jolla Parks & Beaches Committee, offered a proposal at the group’s June 27 meeting to find a way to move the activists on both sides, pro-seal and pro-beach access, away from Children’s Pool. “This is a beautiful public beach and residential area and it shouldn’t be littered with sales tables and signs,” Minick said. “Maybe I’m dreaming, but wouldn’t it be nice if people could have free speech without shouting at each other?”

Natural La Jolla: Magnificent blue whales in our waters for summer
Natural La Jolla
By Kelly Stewart
The largest animal on the planet, possibly the largest animal to ever exist, is now roaming about in our local waters. Topping out at about 100 feet long and weighing about 100 tons, the blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) is a member of the rorqual family (in the same family as humpbacks). Members of this family have pleated grooves in their throats as well as baleen, which is a set of fringed plates composed of keratin that hangs down from the upper jaw in the mouth, functioning as a filter. It’s now the summer feeding season, and blue whales are here to forage on krill (a small red shrimplike creature). Blue whales can take in about 4 tons of food per day and although usually they feed at depth, occasionally the concentrations of
krill will be at the water’s surface and then it’s possible to see whales exhibiting their lungefeeding behavior. While rolling onto their sides, the whales take in huge mouthfuls of water that is swarming with krill. The pleated grooves in their throats then expand to capacity and the whales squeeze the water through their baleen while retaining their prey. A blue-gray color with gray mottling on its back, the blue whale has one very small dorsal fin located quite far back on its body. They also have two blowholes on top of their heads, with a front splash guard to shield the blowholes when they are surfacing. When the whale exhales, misty breath shoots straight up high into the air, and if winds are calm, the blow can linger for quite a while. The blue whale blow (or spout) is unmistakable, and so it’s possible to spot it from shore. These amazing giants should be passing through our local area through early fall.

ant to check out the surf at Scripps Pier? Now you can do it with a simple click of your mouse. The Scripps Pier Cam, sponsored and powered by Surfline.com, provides a streaming HD video feed of surf north and south of the Scripps Pier, according to a press release. Find it at http://scripps.ucsd.edu/ piercam. The camera view provides immediate information about surf and beach conditions, and the Scripps Pier Cam webpage also provides real-time coastal forecasting information from Scripps’ Coastal Data In-
formation Program (CDIP) and weather/atmosphere data from Earth Networks monitoring stations on the Scripps Pier, the release noted. The 1,084-foot-long Scripps Pier was built in 1988 and is closed to the public. Data about ocean conditions have been taken from the pier continuously since 1916 and provide an unparalleled source of information on the coastal Pacific Ocean. Prior to the HD cam launch, Scripps’ previous pier cam was offline for approximately seven months. — Source: Scripps Institution of Oceanography

— Segment 4 —
TP Corridor project gets green light By Dave SchwaB daves@lajollalight.com la Jolla Community Planning Association (lJCPA) voted unanimously July 7 to endorse doing Segment 4 from little Street to la Jolla Shores Drive — the entrance to the Village and the longest segment — first in the $26 million Torrey Pines Corridor Improvement Project. The least costly of the four proposed segments because it has very few retaining walls and the city has already allocated money to design and build those walls, Segment 4 is advocated by city traffic engineers and First District City councilwoman Sherri lightner. City traffic engineer Julio Fuentes, when pressed on a timetable for actually beginning construction on Segment 4, said it’s impossible to do so before design work is completed. lightner at the lJCPA meeting reiterated her view that “this process needs to move forward or it could wind up costing us the whole project.” The councilwoman said the best way to proceed is to get design of Segment 4 started in order to “showcase what can be achieved with the modest improvements we want to make.” lightner said it will then be possible to complete design of the other three roadway segments while simultaneously seeking grant funding for the remainder of the multi-year project. The Torrey Pines Corridor Study previously approved by the City Council recommends 20 improvements including: street cross sections and new guardrails, bollards and sidewalks, a 10-foot-wide, two-way leftlane median in the center of Torrey Pines west of Viking Way, formation of a continuous marked bike lane, new V-calm speed indicators and transverse striping pavement markers installed in both directions to dis-
courage speeding, new lighting and landscaped areas, bluff stabilization, addition of parkway trees and fencing, creation of a view corridor and addition of signage and storm-water drainage. There is a consensus now to pursue Segment 4 first, despite an alternative proposal presented to break the project down further into eight more bite-size portions. Some lJCPA boardmembers voted for the project despite reservations they have about its community impacts. Others connected with the project insist there are other, smallerscale improvements that need to be made in addition to larger-scale items. “We don’t know how long any of these segments are going to take or how much disruption of traffic there’s going to be going into the Village,” said Orrin Gabsch. “If each of these four segments takes six months to construct, that’s going to take two years. you’re going to have a lot of businesses suffering big time in this community.” Architect Robert Thiele, who chaired a committee studying Torrey Pines Corridor improvements in the earlier stages of the project, presented a list of recommendations on curing “liability issues” existing within the corridor. His list includes fixing ADA-accessible access ramps, maintaining bike lanes back from curbs, relocating light standards obstructing sidewalks, relocating retaining fencing to collect falling hillside rocks and trimming vegetation encroaching on pedestrians and bicyclists. Thiele’s list included one other more controversial proposal: Installing a pedestrian crossing signal at Princess Street. lJCPA treasurer Jim Fitzgerald commented that the project as envisioned would be a “quantum improvement” over the roadway as it exists now. “If you don’t start, you’ll never get it done,” he cautioned.

Webb said there’s nothing complex about his café’s success. “It’s just good food, good service at a real good price,” he said, adding his company’s motto is, “Slow food fast.” For some time now, Deliicious has been turning toward healthier cuisine to meet customer demand for higher-quality food. “Health is a major emphasis, we’re going in that direction,” Webb said. “We’re doing fruit smoothies with all
natural pieces of fruit, nothing processed or none of the syrups or anything like that. We’re getting into more organic things.” Webb said Deli-icious is about to come out with gluten-free and updated overall menus soon. “We’re going to make several different dressings and we’re trying to do some more whole foods; whole chicken breasts that we boil and slice ourselves,” he said. “We’re not buying processed stuff anymore. We’re going with more natural, healthful ingredients.” Organic is big at Deli-licious, especially coffee, right down to the beans, which is a menu staple. “We do a lot of specialty coffee drinks that you don’t find other places,” said Webb. The café-coffeehouse’s breakfast menu includes handmade breakfast burritos made to order; bagels; fresh assorted muffins; seasonal
Deli-icious CaféCoffeehouse adds allnatural items to betterserve its longtime customers. Courtesy fruit and pastries; plus gourmet coffee and espresso. The lunch menu features generous fresh salads, tasty soups and an array of sandwiches. Deli-icious has been voted “Best Sandwiches” by la Jolla light readers. The café, which does a lot of catering for local businesses, offers indoor and outdoor dining.Hours are 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays; 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturday.

NINE-TEN marks 10th anniversary NINE-TEN Restaurant is celebrating its 10-year anniversary as one of San Diego’s pioneer “farm-to-table” restaurants with a special Anniversary Market Menu offered from 6 to 10 p.m. in July. located at the historic Grande Colonial Hotel, (which will celebrate its Centennial in 2013), NINETEN opened on July 17, 2001 and quickly became one of the region’s finest dining establishments. For $45 per person ($60 with wine pairings with each course), guests can enjoy NINE-TEN’s cuisine with a delicious “create-your-own” three-course anniversary tasting menu. Dishes will be inspired by Executive Chef Jason Knibb and Pastry Chef Jack Fisher, who served as NINETEN’s opening pastry chef and remains in that position. NINE-TEN’s history dates back to 1926. The spot was formerly the la Jolla Drugstore. In 1926, the store was purchased by Kansas-native Silas O. Putnam, and moved
inside the adjacent Colonial Hotel’s main building. Putnam added an ice cream parlor on the sidewalk that served chocolate sodas and banana splits. The drugstore became a prime location for locals to gather. The beloved pharmacist considered it a big day if he filled more than three prescriptions. He was also the father of actor Gregory Peck, who grew up in la Jolla. In 1980, the space once occupied by Putnam’s drugstore became Putnam’s Grille, which quickly became a la Jolla landmark. Reflecting the la Jolla of the 1920s, the restaurant was redesigned to feature dark wood paneling, wrought iron chandeliers and ceiling fans, oak dining sets and large picture windows. The original soda fountain was replaced with a mirrored back bar and alcoholic beverages were served instead. Continuing the tradition of the past 65 years, the restaurant offered sidewalk seating. Then in February 2001, Putnam’s
Wild King Salmon from NINE-Ten. Will Parson Grille closed its doors. Six months later it opened as NINE-TEN. It has been recognized with an “extraordinary to perfection” rating by ZAGAT, and a 2011 Gold Medallion Award for San Diego’s Best Hotel Fine Dining Restaurant by the California Restaurant Association. Chef Knibb is a 2010 StarChefs Rising Star Chef winner, and both he and pastry chef Jack Fisher are inductees in the San Diego Chef Hall of Fame. NINE-TEN is open for breakfast and lunch daily, and dinner nightly from 6 p.m. at 910 Prospect St. Reservations at (858) 964-5400 or http://www.nine-ten.com.

Guided tours showcase the best UCSD has to offer From UCSD reportS Jill Holmes knows the uCSD campus as well as — if not better than — any student, faculty or staff member. She has been to the top of Geisel Library to see the carillon chime, uncovered the truth behind the university’s “secret” underground tunnels, and has been inside the award-winning co-generation plant to see the mechanics behind providing energy efficient electrical and steam power to the campus. Holmes’ campus expertise and insider knowledge stems from her role as a volunteer guide for the uCSD Visitors Tour Program. The program offers free, 90-minute guided tours of campus for area residents, new faculty and staff, first-time visitors, returning alumni and the general public. Guides lead visitors through the picturesque 1,200-acre campus, highlighting notable landmarks, award-winning architecture, and one-of-akind art pieces while sharing the university’s history and accomplishments. “uC San Diego has achieved so much in such a short time,” said Holmes. “The Visitors Tour Program is a great opportunity to show off the university and its remarkable achievements over the past 50 years.” An alumna and former staff member, Holmes first came to uCSD in 1995 to earn her nurse practitioner’s certificate, then stayed on to work at the Senior Behavioral

After retiring, Holmes found the Visitors Tour Program to be a great way to stay engaged with the university and join a network of people passionate about the campus. “It’s just fun,” said Holmes. “Everyone who participates in the program is excited to be there. I’ve gotten to meet so many different people connected with the university — from people working in facilities management to admissions. “The innovative architecture is one of the things I love most about this campus. There are distinct neighborhoods with different styles, and throughout the campus the modern design reflects the growth and innovative spirit of the university.”

We are even planning to have a live question/answer Tweet session with our president, Rick Wildman, so stay tuned. Also, we are happy to announce our first annual “Day at the Races” fundraising event at the Del Mar Racetrack on Sept. 2. We want to ex-

a vote for peace in the real, real world In the real world, there would be world peace. We need our armed service people home, by the end of this year. There is so much our service people could do to help our country: Fire department needs help. Police department needs help. Our coastline and borders need protecting, as well as the skies over our country. Roads, bridges, etc., need repairing.

Please save our seals The Children’s Pool, also known as Casa Beach, is a small beach in la Jolla. It is famous for the controversy of harbor seals and humans who both want it for themselves. This site is full of tourists. The attraction brings a lot of money to the city of la Jolla. locals watch wild life in this great spot, too. This beautiful cove is the home of several hundred harbor seals. I love to watch them. Harbor seals are mammals that need to rest on land. These harbor seals have found a home and it’s critical to their survival that we protect them and leave them there. I think that seals should have that beach. We have a lot of beaches in la Jolla for people to enjoy. I wouldn’t like to see the lives of the beautiful seals compromised or moved to another location. Why take this from them? let’s save the seals. Marlen Miranda aLL HaLLows academy, Grade 7
townhouse repairs costly All homeowners know that maintenance and repairs are a necessary evil. But replacing fences, painting, new front patios, tree trimming, termite tenting, replacing concrete driveways, extracting trees, changing fences, altering roofs and tearing out gutters — 10 projects in one calendar year — in the midst of a recession? Talk about an intrusion of privacy, noise, increase in theft and downright inconvenience. The real problem lies in the inability to voice an objection. I had my concrete driveway dug up on a
Thursday. I got the notice on the previous Tuesday. I called “Frank” and asked if I could re-schedule because it wasn’t convenient for me to leave my car outside of my garage for seven days (not nearly enough parking around here). No response. Turns out the concrete wasn’t going to be poured until Monday — so that’s 10 days of not being able to park in my garage, at my expense. living in a townhouse is cool – great neighbors with their awesome pets, other times all the hassle of a glorified apartment. The board treats us like Violet in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory — the spoiled child that gets daddy to pay for everything without question. unfortunately, the board hasn’t experienced a bubble gum blow up and floated away. In our dictatorship we have no say and no rights. I would be remiss in not mentioning the dues have doubled in two years. If I amortize, it’s only 5 percent per year since I moved in, but in reality it’s 50 percent. What about some of the individual homeowners who have seen their savings vanish? It’s getting to the point that I don’t want to live in my own townhouse — skyrocketing fees and lack of respect has taken its toll. Kerry Stone La JoLLa resident
do dogs really belong in all the people places? I was so grateful to read the Community View piece in the June 16 edition, “Think twice about where you take your dog.” I’ve been asking myself for a while now, “When did it become OK to take dogs everywhere?!” Dogs and more dogs, leaving their assorted DNA and other less microscopic essence behind where I and — ick! — my food, clothes, papers and person get exposed to them. Dogs in shopping carts at the grocery store; dogs in banks; dogs in clothing stores; dogs on (in whole or in part) the cashier counter where I’m next in line to do business and perhaps need to lay my items. According to an article in the June 8, 2008 issue of O magazine, more than 200,000 Americans get stomach flu every year after ingesting a common bacterium found on the tail ends of dogs called campylobacter. Another easily transmitted bacterium is salmonella, which causes diarrhea and fever in humans. And ringworm spores can lurk on a dog’s coat or muzzle. A dog may be the most precious creature in the world to the owner who has brought it into a place of business, but to someone else, it may really be the source of a breath-choking allergic reaction, or a
cause for very real fear. And why do these owners believe their dogs would rather be in a noisy, indoor, unnatural environment than at their own homes or in their own yards? If they think Fido can’t live without them for an hour or so, there is something more amiss than just bad manners and judgment. Please … consider the world at large and the businesses in it, and the homes of all your new acquaintances, and ask yourself the question before packing up your dog for an outing he/she probably doesn’t want to make anyway. Jan Barnes La JoLLa
Harmony at the Pool on the 4th of July I hope everyone involved in the seal controversy had a chance to go by the Children’s Pool during the 4th of July weekend. It was being used as it should. I saw 150 or so people on the beach and a lot of children with their feet in the water. These people were not protesters or activists, just citizens doing what people like to do best and that’s to have fun at the beach. I would ask our politicians and our judges to come by and observe how the pool is being properly used. Forget the courts and T-shirt sales and let the people and the seals sort it out.

Brandon Wander said, “We taxpayers put enough of a scare into the film commission (and, presumably, RW Productions) that they realized their best course was to meet our demands — at least halfways. “There’s been a dramatic change on Chelsea Street after only a couple of nights of having a police officer posted at the roundabout: It’s been the first relatively quiet weekend in a month.” But noting last Sunday night didn’t go as smoothly with a group of three young males who’d been intercepted earlier heading toward the MTV house later setting off fire crackers and skyrockets on the beach below, Wander added “more needs to be done.” “Turning off the roof-top lights after 10 p.m., so the place doesn’t look like the Mothership has landed, helps, but RW Productions should also cut the

dents insisted their neighborhood be compensated by MTV hiring additional police security, and that bright lights on the home’s rooftop be dimmed or eliminated completely. Summarizing neighbors’ concerns with noise-, trafficand security-related problems, Milan Dimich said, “We’ll take whatever steps we feel are necessary to stop the intrusion to the neighborhood.” Rob Dunson, president of the San Diego Film Commission and Ed Quinn, a San Diego Film Commission Boardmember and a La Jollan (who is a resident of Lower Hermosa), were present to answer questions about the film industry in San Diego and MTV’s current shoot. MTV was invited to send a repre-
sentative, but no one from the company showed up at the meeting. Now in its 28th season, “The Real World” focuses on the lives of groups of strangers who audition to live together in a house for extended periods while cameras record their often-conflicting interpersonal relationships. Several neighbors at the July 5 meeting wanted to seek a way to shut down filming immediately. They alleged show producers are violating city municipal zoning codes in running a business out of a single-family home in a residential neighborhood. “There’s (vehicular) activity going on the street day and night, and surly characters at all times,” complained neighbor Brandon Wander. “My wife, my 10-year-old daughter and I have concerns about safety issues.” Wander said the question to be answered shouldn’t be what to do about the MTV show’s filming, but rather “why they’re here in the first place.” “It appears they’re operating in violation of city municipal codes operating a business in a single-family residence and having employees sleeping overnight at the location, like a minidorm, which is not allowed,” he said. Another neighbor, who requested anonymity after the meeting, noted he no longer allows his children to play
outside because he fears for their safety from increased traffic caused by the MTV house. “I want to know, can we shut this down or not?” the neighbor asked. “Very doubtful,” replied Councilwoman Lightner adding, “I am disappointed in the process and lack of notification to our community. … I know this single-family residence neighborhood doesn’t seem like a real good place for this type of filming and that there are a lot of small children in the immediate area … but we cannot remove them from the house and, going forward, we need to determine how to increase the transparency and the public participation in this process.” Neighbor Robert Asaro asked, “What are they contributing back to the neighborhood?” The film commission’s Dunson responded, “I understand you’re upset and we’re trying to make this better for all of you. We did not recruit Real World. And even if we did recruit them, we couldn’t stop them from renting a house.” Lightner urged neighbors not to engage in any confrontations with the cast or crew of the production. If problems arise, she requests that people call Film Commission representatives Rob Dunson at (619) 234-3456 or Kimberly Hale at (619) 417-3665.
Whitneys sue La Jolla planning group By DAVe SChwAB Staff writer Bob and Kim Whitney, developers of a controversial, three-story mixed-use project in La Jolla Shores, have filed a lawsuit against the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA), a nonprofit corporation. The lawsuit alleges that the advisory group, which makes land-use recommendations to the city of San Diego, violated the Brown Act of California. The Brown Act prescribes that meetings of public commissions, boards and councils be open and that their deliberations not be carried out behind closed doors. San Diego attorney Richard A. Williams filed the lawsuit on the Whitney’s behalf. The suit alleges that the LJCPA illegally filed a governmental appeal dated Jan. 27, 2011 following “a secret vote by several trustees in violation of the Brown Act,” according to the suit. The Whitneys also claim in their suit that the LJCPA “violated their constitutional rights” in denying them participation at LJCPA meetings.” The suit also claims that one LJCPA trustee, architect Phil Merten, “made prejudicial and inaccurate statement about
the Whitney Project while seated as a LJCPA Trustee, and then voted on the project.” “Merten’s active opposition to the Whitney Project is at least improper and certainly prevented him from making a fair decision,” states the lawsuit. “For that reason, Merten should have recused or abstained from the voting.” At the LJCPA’s monthly meeting last week, group president Tony Crisafi noted the Whitneys had filed a lawsuit against the group, and that the City Attorney had agree to represent them. The City Attorney’s office subsequently confirmed that. Asked his reaction to being named in the lawsuit, Merten said, “I would like to respond but unfortunately, under the advice of the City Attorney, we’re simply prohibited from discussing it with anyone right now.” When contacted, the Whitneys deferred to their attorney who did not comment. The lawsuit seeks to have it declared that the LJCPA is subject to the requirements of the Brown act which it allegedly violated, asking that the LJCPA be directed to dismiss its appeal application. The lawsuit also seeks plaintiffs’ attorney fees. n For more, go to www.lajollalight.com.

LJYB All-Star teams head to super regionals If you are following an La Jolla youth Baseball All-Star team that is playing this weekend, you will need a suitcase and a hotel room, because these teams are playing in the PONy Super Region Tournament in Whittier or West Covina. The Pony 13 and Bronco 11 teams both start their tournament games this evening so there should be some good La Jolla karma flowing through the Whittier fields. In the double-elimination format they are guaranteed to play again on Saturday, which happens to coincide with the dreaded “carmageddon” that is descending upon the Southland this weekend. The Region Champion Shetland team starts the inaugural SoCal World Series pool play on July 22. In order to qualify for the Super Region tourney, the Pony 13s had to place among the top three teams in the Region Tournament. They started with a big 10-0 win over La Costa, a team that was a tougher opponent than the score reflects. Next they faced Emerald who went down 9-2 with Brandon Nance throwing a one-hit complete game and striking out 11 batters. Nance contributed a couple of doubles of his own to help the cause, and Reed Meyer came up with a web gem in the fourth inning by robbing a sure hit in the hole near second base and making a perfect throw to kill an Emerald rally. The win moved them into the semifinal round and guaranteed La Jolla a berth in the Super Region. On Sunday, the Pony 13s had a rematch with Chula Vista North, which was still sore about the wild 19-18 loss in the Section championship game. La Jolla lost this one 7-5 even though Luke Bucon pitched a complete game and hit a home run that landed somewhere near El Capitan High School. Immediately following the game, La Jolla turned around and played Vista in the semifinal of the loser’s bracket. The Pony 13s battled and lost a close 5-4 game with Kevin Boermeister pitching 5 2/3 innings and Reed Meyer finish-

The La Jolla Shetland All-Star team won the Southwest Regional Championship in Fallbrook and is headed to the SoCal World Series in West Covina. Leon Chow ing the game in relief. Luke Bucon hit another home run bomb and Max Scott added a couple of clutch hits to keep La Jolla in the game. The important thing to remember after dropping a doubleheader to two very good teams is that they already had a spot in the next round and got a few days to rest for their game tonight. When LJyB heard that PONy proposed Shetland All Star tournaments, the initial reaction was humorous. Travel tournaments for six-year-old kids? Were they factoring naps into the schedule and were sippy cups allowed in the dugout? When it came time to act upon the opportunity, there were 20-plus players signed up and plenty of coaches willing to try this adventure. The experiment proved fruitful when the LJyB Shetland Red team won the Tecolote Memorial Day Tournament.

La Jolla Prep adds players The La Jolla Prep Waves basketball team, which will begin play in the fall, has added the first three players to their rosters, according to head coach Gary Trousdale. Both Darrell Bowie and Ali Morovati will compete for the high school team, while former Horizon standout Tyler Cross will play for the post-graduate team. Bowie, a 6-foot-6 senior-to-be already has one scholarship offer, according Scout.com, from Northwestern. Morovati, who is 6-9, comes to La Jolla from Iran. High schoolers joining the program will go to an area high school, while post-graduate students can work on college courses while trying to improve their basketball skills for a Division I institution.

When la Jolla was down 9-7 in the bottom of the 5th inning with the bases loaded, Austin Bale hit a bases-clearing walk-off single to put la Jolla into the championship game with a 10-9 victory. Thirty minutes later, the two teams had to square off again, this time for the Region title. This game belonged to la Jolla and after the first inning it was 5-0 and they never looked back. Final score 11-5 with la Jolla Shetland being the #1 seed from the South Region as they enter the SoCal World Series on July 22nd.

The following day they lost their only game 9-8 in a real nail biter against Carlsbad Black, which dropped them into the loser’s bracket where each game is elimination for one team. These Shetland boys are resilient and tough because they played doubleheaders in 100-degree weather and somehow won five straight games to take the Region Championship. They beat Tecolote 15-5, Chula Vista South and Fallbrook 23-5. Because they were coming from the loser’s bracket, they faced Carlsbad Black again and had to beat them twice to win the coveted Region banner. In the first game, they played with only three

Ginger Peachy! Local photographer celebrates Rogers’ centennial with exhibit By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt inger Rogers. She was Fred Astaire’s dance partner in 10 Hollywood movies, the one who famously did everything he did, but backwards, in high heels. According to local photographer Helen M. Drysdale, she was much more than that. Virginia Katherine McMath (Ginger Rogers’ original name) appeared in 73 movies, and there was no dancing in the one for which she won an Oscar, “Kitty Foyle.” She was married five times, but her closest relationship was with her mother, Lela. She died in 1995, at the age of 84, and her ashes were interred with her mother’s, not far from the grave of Fred Astaire. Drysdale met Ginger and Lela Rogers in 1963 when she was director of advertising, public relations and photography at the original La Jolla Playhouse, where Ginger was appearing in “A More Perfect Union.”
G Harry Potter (Daniel radcliffe) and Voldemort (ralph Fiennes) face off in ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part ii.’ COUrTESY By PAtriciA B. Dwyer AnD susAn DeMAGGio As the world awaits the eighth and final Harry Potter film “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II” opening Friday, July 15 (under a full moon), we asked people on the streets of La Jolla last week if they were stoked about the epilogue episode. About the film, blogger Jordan on IMDB, writes, “The final chapter begins as Harry, Ron, and Hermione continue their quest of finding and destroying the Dark Lord’s three remaining Horcruxes, the magical items responsible for his immortality. But as the mystical Deathly Hallows are uncovered, and Voldemort finds out about their mission, the biggest battle begins and life as they know it will never be the same again.” You can watch the movie trailer at harrypotter.com “We just did the Harry Potter tour in London!” said Kim Hartman, pictured here with her sons. “We love Harry Potter! We will probably go to the midnight showing. We are going home from vacation so my daughter can see it with her friends.” Jennifer Lonack and Evan Gillooly are undeniably ready to see the film. “Heck yeah! We are going at midnight and dressing up!” Lonack said. “Evan pulls off a good Malfow, and I pull off not-thatgreat of a Harry!”

10 quesTions What brought you to La Jolla? We moved out here in 1989 when my husband was recruited to run a biotech company. What makes this area special to you? The view of the ocean. It used to drive my kids crazy when we drove down La Jolla Parkway on the way home from school and I’d point to the view in the distance and say, “Don’t ever take that for granted.” If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? Ever since “The Throat” was cleared (La Jolla Shores Drive at Torrey Pines Road), I don’t have much to complain about. Unless ... given how much we pay in property taxes, maybe that should guarantee blue skies every day. I could live with the boredom of not having variety in weather. see 10 questions, B15

La Jolla Cultural Partners
I guarantee you’ve never seen anything like “Peer Gynt.” If your funny bone needs tickling, taking in a performance at the La Jolla Playhouse might do the trick. Since it’s inception by Henrik Ibsen way back in the 1860s, the epic tale of one man’s search for identity continues to be staged and slightly tweaked. Director David Schweizer said he was so enamored of Ibsen’s peculiar poem/story, it was one of his first theatrical undertakings. He’s adapted it several times and brings another new version to the Playhouse. The story doesn’t unfold normally. Peer Gynt’s (Danny Gavigan)
■ Where: Potiker Theatre, La Jolla Playhouse, UCSD campus ■ Tickets: $31-$66 ■ Box Office: (858) 550-1010 ■ Website: lajollaplayhouse.org unimaginable life evolves more like a roll of the dice. Sometimes it’s sixes, another snake eyes. With antlers above a room ladened with huge armoires and antique lamps strewn about that appear hundreds of years old, it’s a surprise when five people take the stage and mill about for a few moments. Actually, these five performers — Danny Gavigan, Kate Cullen Roberts, Luis Moreno, Evan
Zes and Birgit Huppuch — take on 50 characters in this comical journey. The absurdity begins with a segment about Peer stealing a bride away on her wedding day; it continues when he wants to marry the Troll King’s weird daughter; and summits when Peer fashions himself a king in Morocco. But the most absurd moments of all come from Peer’s constant mutterings about being true to one’s self, this coming from a man who doesn’t know who he really is. His women come and go, but he’s most attached to Solvang (Birgit Huppuch). They feud, make up, part, reunite, and she even promises to wait for him for what turns out to be years. In the meantime, there’s all that craziness going on around the set. The actors’ plucky performances make this show. Whether you know what they’re doing or not, they’re funny most of the time (although, I did notice a few audience members who never laughed while others

cackled endlessly). Watching Evan Zes alone is worth the price of a ticket. He’s hilarious in almost every scene that makes little sense. The actors appear in amusing costumes or pieces
of them — to name a few: elbow-long red gloves on Peer, pilot goggles, pointy green ears. The creative team — David Zinn (Scenic Design); Christina Wright (Costume
Design); Darrell Maloney (Lighting and Projection Design); and Ryan Rumery, (Composer/Sound Design) — have worked hard to create an original world. Be sure to make a visit!

Aspen Vincent (center) with the cast of ‘Sleeping Beauty Wakes.’ T. Charles eriCkson especially to work at the La Jolla Playhouse, is very special for Vincent. “The Playhouse is the theater I went to when I was growing up and to be able to come back here after fulfilling my dreams to be a Broadway actress is humbling and an honor. This is where I slept outside waiting to get rush tickets! Seeing shows here inspired the career I wanted.” “Sleeping Beauty Wakes,” is not to be confused with
the documentary “Waking Sleeping Beauty.” It’s a story, according to Vincent, that appeals across-generations. She said the message is to find the courage to be completely in the moment and living your life completely awake. “Every character in this show is being held back, by a fear, neurosis, or lack of something that’s keeping them from living fully. My character is literally asleep and not able to do any-
thing, but then she finds a way to break out of the prison she’s been in for so long. “Every other character finds a magical breakthrough in their lives and they realize they need to revaluate their relationships with a spouse or child, or need to be recommitted to their jobs. So often we’re held back by fear and get stuck in these patterns where we’ve just been existing for years and not taking full advantage of the life that is so beautiful and precious, and the relationships around us, and not giving everything we can to them.” While enjoying the highs of a Broadway performer, Vincent said she understands her career comes with lows as well. “I’m acquainted with the pain that’s part of this industry — the insecurity of not knowing when your next job is coming; of not having a steady income and being flexible to play leading roles or wait tables. When young people ask my advice, I tell them to only pursue this career if it will kill your soul to not do it. “I have no regrets, even if next year I’m waiting tables back in New york City. I’m doing what I’m supposed to do and it brings me joy. I know I bring other people joy and I move people with what God has gifted me. For me, I can’t think of a more blessed career.”

www.lajollalight.com FROM GINGER, B1 This month, Drysdale is honoring both women with a photography exhibit at ArtistSpace/SouthFair on Jimmy Durante Boulevard. The exhibit opens July 16 — on what would have been Ginger’s 100th birthday. Drysdale, who has lived in Del Mar since 1971, was born in New Jersey and sent off to school in La Jolla when The Bishop’s School was a girls’ boarding school. Her photographic career began in New York in 1952, when she wrote photo captions for two photographers who divided their camera time between celebrities and street scenes. “I watched them in the darkroom, developing their pictures,� she said. “I learned everything by osmosis.� She honed her own photographic skills, and in the 1950s, returned to La Jolla, ultimately landing a job at the Playhouse, then located at Jolla High School. The first time she met Ginger Rogers was at La Valencia Hotel, where the actress was staying. “I knocked at the door of her room, and an elderly woman answered. She introduced herself as Lela Rogers, and quickly asked me to call her Lela. I said I wasn’t brought up that way, so she said: ‘Then call me Auntie Lela.’ I called her Auntie Lela all the rest of her life.� Lela, said Drysdale, was “a wonderful lady, and tough, too — a no-nonsense disciplinarian. That’s why Ginger turned out so well.� Lela worked in Hollywood for several years as a scriptwriter, and in 1918, was one of the first women to join the Marines. Ginger started out in vaudeville when she was 14, after winning the Texas State Charleston Champion-

inger Rogers ranks No. 14 on the American Film Institute’s list of the top 50 greatest screen legends of American cinema — 25 male and 25 female — revealed June 15, 1999 during a CBS special. The institute defined an “American screen legend� as an actor with a significant screen presence in feature-length films whose screen debut occurred in or before 1950. Here are the female ranks: 1. Katharine Hepburn 2. Bette Davis 3. Audrey Hepburn 4. Ingrid Bergman 5. Greta Garbo 6. Marilyn Monroe 7. Elizabeth Taylor 8. Judy Garland 9. Marlene Dietrich 10. Joan Crawford 11.

ship. In 1929, she made her Broadway debut, launching a career that lasted almost 70 years, and included dancing, singing, and acting on stage, screen and TV. “She was a lovely person, very easy to talk to, very thoughtful of other people,� Drysdale recalled. “She was a good tennis player and a good swimmer, and she did beautiful paintings, too.� About a month ago, Drysdale and her cousin, Dayna Carroll, were in downtown Del Mar talking about the fact that Ginger would soon have been 100 years old. “I
n Unsolicited, Opinionated Editor’s Note: WHAT?! No mention of my alltime favorite actress Jean Arthur? The American Film Institute shall hear of this injustice! Arthur made significant and undeniable contributions to classic motion pictures with flawless performances in three Frank Capra films: “Mr. Deeds Goes to Town� (1936), “You Can’t Take It With You� (1938), and “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington� (1939); and in George Stevens’ “Shane� (1953). Arthur had other memorable roles in Howard Hawks’ “Only Angels Have Wings� (1939), Jean Arthur George Stevens’ “The Talk of the Town� (1942), and his “The More the Merrier� (1943), for which Arthur was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress. This “oversight� triggers the tongue-incheek concern that other great film actresses may have been omitted from the TOP 25 list. Maybe some of your favorites! If so, please send an e-mail with your nominations to sdemaggio@lajollalight.com by Monday, July 18 and I will print OuR list! Hmpf!
can’t believe she’s 100 and not back yet!� Drysdale said. The remark was overheard by Rachel Turner Thomas, daughter of the late Herb Turner, architect of SouthFair. She suggested Drysdale do a photographic tribute to Ginger Rogers at ArtistSpace. Drysdale and Carroll hope the exhibit will bring Ginger Rogers back into public consciousness. “I remember, sometime back in the ’70s, Ginger called to say she was in town and wanted to have breakfast with us,� Carroll said. “She wanted pancakes

With the plate their canvas, and produce their paint, A.R. Valentien chefs turn out culinary masterpieces By Will Parson on’t let the Lodge at Torrey Pines’ kilt-wearing doormen fool you; there’s a distinctly Californian feel at A.R. Valentien. The Lodge itself pays homage to the California Craftsman Movement, and its signature restaurant takes its name and inspiration from Albert Robert Valentien, an early 20th century Impressionist and San Diegan. Valentien’s open-air landscapes adorn just about every wall. Complementing the California cuisine — steeped heavily in local ingredients — the artwork brings guests closer to the fertile soil of San Diego’s farms. The clientele consists of more locals than you’d expect for a hotel restaurant outside of downtown La Jolla, and the seafood on the dinner menu is particularly popular. It’s currently represented by White Bass, Maine Lobster, Wild King Salmon and Guerrero Negro Scallops. And the surest way to appreciate executive chef Jeff Jackson and chef de cuisine Tim Kolanko’s farm-totable approach is with the weekly outdoor Artisan Table dinners. The restaurant gets most of its produce deliveries on Thursdays,

■ This week: Guerrero Negro Scallops with creamed corn, fried green tomatoes, padron peppers, espellete so every Thursday morning the chefs create a four-course menu based on the best ingredients of the day. Only when roughly a dozen guests are seated outdoors on the deck do they find out what they will be having for dinner. “It’s fun for me to … be able to go to the Artisan Table and say ‘Hey, I shook this farmer’s hand this morning an hour after he pulled this lettuce out of the ground, and that’s what you’re getting tonight,” said Kolanko. A bit of culinary adventure is a by-product of having an exceedingly fresh menu. The idea is to show off the best ingredients San Diego has to offer that day, and the intimate family-style
setting lets the chef talk with guests about every bit of their four-course meal. Every communal meal brings guests closer to their food, as well as to the former strangers seated in close proximity. The typical dining experience at A.R. Valentien is a more traditional affair than the Artisan Table, but still features the same ethos — even if the chef isn’t there to tell about special items, like the fennel pollen that Point Loma Farm harvested singularly at Kolanko’s request. It’s not too far of a stretch to imagine the food on your plate came from a place like the landscape hanging above your table.

By Kelley Carlson There’s a big party planned for July 20, and everyone is invited. It’s Opening Day at the Del Mar Racetrack, a major event on the national thoroughbred racing scene that typically draws crowds of 40,000-plus each year. There’s plenty of pageantry, with jockeys in their brightly colored silks and people donning headgear ranging from elegant to crazy. “It’s a great people show, absolutely the hottest ticket in town,” said Mac McBride, director of media for the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. One of the highlights is the One and Only Truly Fabulous Hats Contest, with entries from men and women. Winners are chosen in each of four categories: Most Glamorous, Best Racing Theme, Funniest/Most Outrageous and Best Flowers/All Others. First place receives $300, while $200 is awarded to second and $100 for third. A grand-prize winner is chosen from among the four categories, and that contestant will win two flight vouchers redeemable for any American Airlines destination in the continental United States. Also, the first-place winner in the Most Glamorous category will receive a dual chain 24-karat gold-plated necklace from The Diamond Boutique. Entries will be taken from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the

No hill of beans at Sunrise Rotary’s changing of the guard
R
ick’s Café Americain was the scene of the crime at la Jolla Country Club on June 25 as the la Jolla Sunrise Rotary Club murdered “Casablanca” at the long-awaited demotion of president Rick Wildman. John Santuccio (Sam) tickled the ivories of the grand piano with “Knock on Wood.” Jane Wolgemuth led the chorus of disgruntled Rotarians singing, “We’re unhappy.” Sergeantat-arms Ed Feldman (louie Renault) tried to shut the place down. Then, Constance Hughes (Ilsa lund) walked in with Prez-Elect Gary Orsa (Victor laszlo). Ilsa wistfully begged Sam to “play ‘As Time Goes By.’ “ When Rick angrily demurred to the tune, Ed and Dave Duea (ugarte) charged him with “resembling a president and acting like an attorney.” Ed blew his whistle and declared the rowdy gin-joint closed. Rick offered to pay off the board to stay in power, telling treasurer Harvey Koelln (Signor Ferrari) “a bribe has always worked before.” Ilsa tried to seduce Rick to get the purloined letters of Transit — the only way she could get Gary out of the presidency. Rick was fine with that until Harvey advised him that he would “have to host Rotary for another year and you won’t be that safe with all the members.” So Gary became president, Rick and Ilsa flew the coop to lisbon, and Jane and the Rotarians crowed “We’re all lucky — very lucky.” Knock on wood.

Museum’s contemporary art group gathers in La Jolla garden By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt n a sunny Sunday afternoon in late June, about 80 members and friends of the Contemporary Arts Committee, a support group of the San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park, gathered for a garden party, silent auction, light bites and wine in the La Jolla home of a couple of ardent art-lovers (who wish to remain anonymous). Hospitality chairman Patti Cooprider presided over the edibles, with the help of Garrianne Brandt and Margaret Priske, and guests wandered through the indoor and outdoor areas, admiring an impressive collection of contemporary art. The annual garden party caps off a year of events, which includes monthly meetings at members’ homes, artist talks, and sometimes, studio tours. “SDMA is not just a staid old venue,” said Evey Solomon, a member of the group. “It also has a wonderful contemporary area that deserves publicizing. And that’s one of the things we’re trying to do.” For more about the Contemporary Arts Committee, contact membership chair Robin Lipman at (858) 794-7968.

The perils of plastic water bottles are exposed
Let Inga tell you ... I recently saw a beautiful choker necklace in a catalog and knew I had to have it. But when it arrived, I discovered that the model had one thing I didn’t have: A neck. It isn’t really a weight issue (although no one has accused me of being thin for a very long time) so much as anatomy. Unlike the swan-throated model, my head seems to sit directly on my shoulders making choker wearing problematical at best. As it turns out, I’m also missing a waist. Of course, I make up for it by having multiples of other parts, like chins. And thighs. Women’s clothes are measured on fit models who are assumed to have standard parts. They are not designed for those
of us with three thighs and boobs that graze one’s belly button. Which I think we’ll all agree is good news. But it makes acquiring apparel a significant problem. Of course, one could consider having clothes custom made. But I fear they would actually fit. No one with no neck and no waist and three thighs really wants to emphasize those things. We’re looking for the clothes that disguise our anatomical failings. Actually, I’m puzzled as to where this body shape came from. It’s definitely not the norm in my family, although I’m not the norm in my family in any other way either. I’m a blue-eyed blond in a family of brown-eyed brunettes. It was always my theory that someone out there is a family of blond hunchbacks who wonder why they have a normalshaped brunette child. But for women, if it’s not one thing, it’s another. And if one lives in La Jolla, there is really no need for any imperfections whatsoever here in Cosmetic Surgery Mecca.
I have a slender, exquisitely beautiful friend who has the precise right number of body parts in the perfect proportions but is obsessed about the wrinkle lines around her mouth. Personally, I’ve never noticed the wrinkle lines around her mouth and if I could trade one of my chins for mouth wrinkles, I’d do it in an upper arm wobble er, heartbeat. Not long ago, my friend found herself distressed enough about it to actually undergo a full-face laser peel. It sounded totally miserable. She referred to herself as Franken Face, refused all social contact, and only ventured out to walk the dog in darkness. Even her own children had limited access. But here’s the clincher on this one: She is convinced that the wrinkles around her lips were caused by drinking from plastic water bottles. You know, the ubiquitous bottles that everyone seems to have in hand or in purse at all times. They’re more than a fashion accessory; they’re like another limb.
But one worth amputating if it would avoid wrinkles. She’s asked me to put out the word: Don’t let this happen to you. Dump the water bottles. A little research showed that lip-area wrinkles are also called “smoker’s lip” or “whistler’s lip,” since, of course, those activities have a similar pucker to water bottle consumption. But then you start thinking of all the myriad lip puckering activities you actually
engage in, like, for example, kissing. And things that kissing could lead to. In such an appearanceoriented place as La Jolla, this could put the kabolix on all manner of more intimate activities. Although I think most guys in La Jolla would say that they should be so lucky that any puckering activities they’re interested in would be habitual. Still, this water bottle/lip wrinkle thing gets too much play and pretty soon
La Jolla guys are getting even less of what they say they weren’t getting anyway. We’re talking major consequences here. But not for me. Zapping the lines around my lips won’t give me a waist or a neck or take away even a single thigh. So bring on the Evian. If I can’t be adorable, I can at least be hydrated. — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life every other week in The Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com
Foundation has grants for San Diego artists The San Diego Foundation has announced the Creative Catalyst Fund: Individual Artist Fellowship Program (CCF Program), a competitive grant for artists beginning new works. Through partnerships with 19 pre-selected nonprofit arts and culture organizations, The Foundation will fund fellowships from $5,000 to $20,000. San Diego-based professional artists working in visual, performing, literary and film arts (and at all stages of their careers) are eligible to apply. Artists must be at least 18 years old and not enrolled or planning to enroll in a degree program during the fellowship.
Awards will be used to develop new work beginning Jan. 1, 2012 and ending by Dec. 31, 2012. To be invited to apply to the CCF Program, artists must first complete a Letter of Intent application in which they provide professional qualifications, a project concept, and specify the nonprofit arts and culture organization they would like to sponsor their project. Artists selected through this process will be invited to apply for the grant. The Letter of Intent application must be submitted by Aug. 5, 2011 and may be accessed at www.sdfoundation.org/CCFProgram

My older son, Mike, is extremely supportive of my work, and has taken it upon himself to be my PR agent, website and marketing material designer, and allaround booster; that’s in his spare time. During his day job, he comes up with creative ideas for his firm to use in social media, PR and marketing.

If you hosted a dinner party for seven, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Jon Stewart, because he’s thoughtful, can discuss contemporary issues, and makes me laugh; Oscar Wilde, for great cocktail party conversation; Meryl Streep, because she could play at least 10 other
What do you do for fun? I enjoy spending time with my friends; it doesn’t matter what we do, if anything. I also love movies, theater and reading; walking around New york (you see more unusual people and activities within a 5-block radius than you could see in a much broader area and

What are your favorite movies of all time? you’re asking someone who sees three movies every weekend, but can’t tell you on Monday morning what they were. But with enough time to think, I remembered: “Annie Hall,” “The Stunt Man,” “Blood Simple,” “Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown,” and “The 400 Blows.”
What is your greatest accomplishment? I recently published a historical biography, “The Accidental Anarchist,” which is about a man who was sentenced to death three times in the early 1900s in Russia — and lived to tell about it. He also happened to have been my grandfather. The book is based on the diaries he began keeping in 1905 during the RussoJapanese War, and vividly illustrates not only the war, but what it was like to live in the Russian-occupied territories at that time. yet

in spite of poverty, starvation and the horrors of war, my grandfather had the unique ability to find humor (albeit dark) in his circumstances as well as reason for optimism, which helped him survive. It is probably no coincidence that, after 105 years and three generations after my grandfather began keeping his diary, I was the one to fulfill his dream of seeing it published as I was named for the young girl who saved him from his third death sentence. What is your motto or philosophy of life? Leave everyone you meet a little better off than they were before you knew them.
One place listens to patients.
Even during brain surgery. You’ll probably never need brain surgery. The odds are even slimmer you’ll need to be awake during it. But it’s good to know one place in San Diego performs the world’s most advanced surgical procedures — and brings that same level of skill to the world’s most common procedures, too. One place is redefining surgery. 800-926-8273 | health.ucsd.edu |

By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Quail Gardens’ new name, San Diego Botanic Garden, may not be as appealing, but under its more official-sounding title, the 40-year-old destination for nature-lovers is looking better than ever. Its mission is to connect plants and people, and for families on the lookout for summer activities, this 37-acre oasis is the place to go. It’s a sure cure for Nature Deficit Disorder, which according to local author Richard Louv, affects many of our children, not to mention ourselves. Besides the pleasant walking trails that meander through bamboo groves, desert gardens, a tropical rainforest (complete with waterfall), native coastal sage, and attractively laidout plantings of herbs, suc-
sisters Alexandra and rebecca Grace Lyons climb the rope ladder to the tree House, centerpiece of the Hamilton Children’s Garden at sDBG. PHOTOS BY MAURICE HEWITT
one of the ZjhunkMetalArt creatures in the Children’s Garden is 6-foot-tall ‘edward the Dino Bird.’ According to sculptor Paul wilton, this is what happens ‘when an old tired patio heater falls asleep and dreams.’
culents, and fruits from all over the world, there are two areas especially designed for kids: Seeds of Wonder, and the Hamilton Children’s Garden. Seeds of Wonder is meant primarily for toddlers, but has attractions for older kids, too, including animal topiary, a miniature train, and places to just plain play in the dirt. The Hamilton Garden, opened two years ago, was mostly funded by longtime board member Frances Hamilton White, and designed by Deneen Powell Atelier, who
also helped design the San Diego Zoo’s award-winning Elephant Odyssey. It’s a great spot for kids with a climbable Tree House (in a huge, faux banyan tree with live plant accoutrements), a caterpillar/butterfly Bed & Breakfast, a makeyour-own-music garden with of imaginative percussion instruments, a Spell & Smell garden, a foxtail maze, a stream for sailing paper boats, and some whimsical sculptures by the King of ZjHunkMetalArt, Paul Wilton — one of 26 regional artists whose works
are now on display throughout SDBG. (Ask for a sculpture map at the entrance.) Summer Thursdays are Family Fun Nights, with arts and crafts activities from 4:30-6 p.m., followed by a range of interactive entertainments in the Lawn Garden, including sing-alongs, storytelling, puppets, and live bird shows. Bring a blanket and a picnic supper, and don’t miss the popular “kid-folk” duo, Hullabaloo (July 14 and Aug. 25); Dance Around the World, with Nikola Clay (July 28); and Fabulous Funny Fairy Tales (Aug. 4).

Just in time for Opening Day: Foods for a gambling edge at the track
Kitchen Shrink By Catharine L. Kaufman Here’s a primer on racetrack eats to give you an edge as you approach the betting window — especially on opening day, July 20. n Foods for Focus You need to filter out distractions, like thoroughbreds with their blinders. Be alert and stay focused, keeping brain cells on their toes. Eating whole grains and fruits like avocados can amp up blood flow, offering an easy, breezy way to fire-up gray matter. At the starting gate, try an appetizer of guacamole and housemade salsa roja with tri-color tortilla chips. For a classic dose of brain food, beef up on omega-3s best in wild-caught, deepsea fish and seafood like salmon, whitefish, scallops, crab and spiny lobster. Chef Barry Schneider of the Del Mar Fairgrounds and Race Track has plenty of foods for
focus on the opening day menu, with a motherload of locally grown and seasonal fare. Do Del Mar’s classic jumbo shrimp cocktail or grilled wild king salmon with pineapple jasmine rice, baby bok choy, mango salsa, and Thai green curry sauce. While caffeine will give you a buzz and help you concentrate on your picks, too much of a good thing might give you the jitters. Instead of guzzling coffee, need I twist your arm with divine bittersweet chocolate? This palatal bliss has powerful antioxidants, and contains natural caffeine stimulants to enhance concentration. The menu offers a “chocolate bar” for your just desserts — a mousse “candy bar” on a chocolate cookie crust with a raspberry coulis, and seasonal berries, a dose of fructose, which will also sharpen your faculties. n No Horsing Around Like the nags, you want to eat foods that’ll make you eager and energetic, not logy or lethargic. Start opening day with a power breakfast of an iron-packed spinach omelet (egg whites for cholesterol-conscious), a slice of whole-wheat toast, and honeydew melon for energy-boosting complex carbs, fiber and minerals.
Southwest Seafood Cocktail One of Bing’s faves was a killer seafood cocktail that’ll surely put you in the Winner’s Circle. n Ingredients: • 1-pound large shrimp, peeled, cooked • 1/2-pound jumbo scallops, cooked, halved • 1/2-cup white wine • 1/4-cup fresh limejuice • 1 garlic clove, minced • 1 teaspoon crushed arbol chiles • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped • 1 small red onion, diced • 2-cups ripe tomatoes, diced • 1-cup avocado, diced • 2 Persian cucumbers, diced n Method: In a large bowl, marinate the seafood in juice, wine, garlic, chiles, cilantro and onion for one hour. Blend in tomatoes, avocado, cucumber, and chill for another hour. Serve in martini glasses with corn chips and plenty of ice water. For sustained energy throughout the day, the Mayo Clinic recommends snacks including bananas, apples, figs, papayas, almonds, dried apricots, sunflower seeds and whole-grain crackers. Grilled fatty fishes, kidney beans, lentils, edamane,

and high-powered grains will also do the trick.
Try the assorted cheese plate with grapes, strawberries, figs and crackers, the fresh Washington State Dungeness crabmeat salad, or nibble on crunchy tempura green beans with a cucumber wasabi dip. Also check out the new third floor Gastro Celebrity Pub. Chef Barry boasts, almost every item is under $15, and is great for splitting like the garlic edamame, duck confit salad and surf and turf sliders with natural Brandt beef. n A Trojan Horse Foods that zap you of energy or are soporific and make you want to take a catnap, should be avoided. Above all, don’t eat like a horse — big meals tend to make you drowsy. Grazing throughout the day helps maintain steady energy levels. Other no-nos include the evil twin sisters: White Sugar and White Flour. Eating quantities of refined sugar and simple carbs will boost you up, then make you crash. So do brown instead of white rice, whole-wheat
instead of white bread, and hearty grains like quinoa and buckwheat. High fatty foods make your blood do a beeline to your gut to help digestion, so choose lean protein like chicken or fish, instead of fried and processed foods. A perfect choice is the grilled bistro chicken breast with cranberry quinoa pilaf. n You Can Lead a Horse to Water Keep well-hydrated to ward off headaches and dizziness. Drink alcohol in moderation as too much will impair your judgment. Survey the line-up of delicious drinks, and select your favorite, remembering mixed drinks tend to spike blood-alcohol levels higher than other libations. On the bar menu are assorted cocktails, like the low-cal SkinnyRita, the classic Del Margarita, the Red Bull-Fecta, the Bloody Del Mar and the Del Martini.

Chloe and Reggie are a unique, bonded pair of dogs looking for a home together! Easy-going and mellow, Chloe and Reggie adore attention from their beloved people friends and greatly appreciate human companionship. They have a very close bond and love spending time together. The two are often found snuggling and playing side by side! Since Chloe is visually impaired, she can be shy in new places, but will warm up with love and attention. Visual impaired dogs like Chloe can lead a great quality of life. During the adoption process, Humane Society veterinary and behavior training experts will be present to answer any questions their new pet parents may have and share how best care for Chloe and Reggie in the future. Chloe and Reggie will do well in a variety of homes, including a home with children and other pets. Their bonded adoption fee is $110. This fee includes their spay and neuter, current vaccinations, permanent microchip identifications, certificate for a free veterinary exams, and more!

What one person thinks “expensive”, isn’t so to another. Everything is relative. This is especially true for those purchasing local real estate with Euros, Loonies, Yen or Yuan. In fact, for many European, Canadian, Japanese or Mexican real estate investors, purchasing prime coastal real estate in La Jolla can now be done at an amazingly steep discount. All thanks to Mr. Bernanke, who as you know, has continued to cut points in the Fed rate, which has helped trigger further declines in the dollar versus other foreign currencies. And as of this writing, the US dollar against the Euro currently hovers around $1.39, which can be a dream or a nightmare; all depending upon the denomination of ones bank account. La Jolla real estate has long been the desired target of many wealthy foreign investors. But with the falling dollar, La Jolla real estate has now become a screaming bargain to foreign investors around the world.

Spring’s news good for La Jolla home prices BY BOB KEVANE President, San Diego Association of Realtors The warmer months brought an increase in single-family home prices in La Jolla in May when the median home price for detached homes rose to $1,501,500, compared to $1,300,000 in May 2010. On top of that, more properties sold in La Jolla year-to-date as compared to this time last year — 110 and 97 respectively. Favorable pricing along with reasonable inventory, and low financing rates, makes this summer an exceptional time to start searching for your new home. For first-time and experienced homebuyers, preparing for home ownership before jumping into this market is crucial to ensuring a smooth journey. A Realtor can give guidance about is how to organize your finances in preparation for buying a home. According to Realtor Magazine Online, there are steps you can take to help achieve a strategic financial plan: ■ Create a family budget by using receipts for what you actually spent over the last six months. ■ Reduce your consumer debt to between 8-percent and 10-percent of your total income. Lenders look for a total debt load of no more than 36 percent of income. This number includes your mortgage, which typically ranges between 25 and 28 percent of income. ■ Get a handle on your expenses. Write down everything you spend for one month and from your list, identify ways to save. ■ Consider increasing your income by taking on a second, part-time job. ■ Save for a down payment and set a goal of saving at least 20 percent of a home’s sales price. ■ Create a house fund. Deposit money into the account on a monthly basis. ■ Stability of your earnings stream is important; therefore it is important to keep your job for at least two years. While you don’t need to stay in the same job forever to qualify for a loan, having a job for less than two years may mean you have to pay a higher interest rate. ■ Establish a good credit history by paying your bills on time and try to pay off the entire balance monthly.
