Oaxacan art makes a stop in La Jolla By Giovanni Moujaes Bright and colorful, a Oaxacan art fair took place on Saturday on the grounds of St. James By-the-Sea Episcopal Church. The setup included a wide variety of painted woodcarvings, ranging from traditional to the more modern acrylicbased. Proceeds from the event went to The Blue Tarp School in Tijuana for poor children and Dorca’s House for kids with parents in prison. The art of the carving all started in one of the agricultural sub-communities of Oaxaca called Arrazola. Victor Vasquez — the man representing all of the woodcutters — explained how it all happened. “Originally Arrazola was a farming village a long time ago,” Said Vasquez, “but when times got bad, the villagers found a new way to make money and the Oaxacan art soon spread.” The woodcarvings were made with the branches of
the Copal or “Copalillo” tree, ideal due to the softness of the wood. It’s said that professional carvers can see the animal they want to carve in the tree before they even cut it. The downside to the tree is its termite influx, making it hard for a carving not to be eaten up over time. Now, Oaxacans dunk sculptures in gasoline or stick them in a freezer before painting to kill all of the bugs. “They take about three days to carve and a week or so to paint,” said Vasquez. “You have to be careful with them. Care is the most important thing.” “Care” could definitely be seen at the fair in the intricacy ofthe paintings. The paint on some symbolized the local beliefs of the native people, such as gods or divine creatures. Regardless of message, each object told a story all in itself. “This is what brings me happiness,” said Vasquez, “ (and) to see it loved by others is muy bueno.”
Maya Garcia has fun detailing her piece.

Shores board takes a stand on building-to-lot-size ratios By Dave SchwaB daves@lajollalight.com A chorus calling for the city to tighten zoning regulations in La Jolla Shores, which some say allow larger dwellings here than are allowed elsewhere in San Diego, grew louder last week when La Jolla Shores Association board members chimed in. Longtime La Jolla Shores resident Rob Whittemore led the July 13 discussion with a presentation on floor area ratios, or FARs, — the mathematical relationship between the total floor area of structures on a lot to the size of the parcel. “The purpose of FARs is to protect the community from individuals overdeveloping,” he said, noting escalating property values over time have given local property owners added incentive to create so-called “McMansions” to maximize their investments. He detailed the history of local community planners’ attempts to revise zoning regulations, focusing on the rules embodied in the La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance PDO, which serves as a blueprint for development. It was enacted in 1974. “That was an experiment that worked for 17 or 18 years,” said Whittemore, adding the ratios in the Shores were intended to restrict singlestory developments to 60 percent of lot coverage — a 0.6 ratio. Whittemore said the ratio is compounded with each additional floor. Consequently, a
three-story structure on the same lot has a 0.18 ratio. Such a home is allowed now in the Shores because citywide FARs are presently not applied. “That’s three times as large as lots are allowed to be developed elsewhere in San Diego,” Whittemore said. Barry Graceman, head of the Long Range Vision Committee — a grass-roots group aiming to revise the Shores PDO — said they are seeking ways to preserve the community’s village character in the long term. “Many people feel developments in La Jolla Shores are getting too large,” he said, noting the committee has determined limiting FARs in the neighborhood is one way of accomplishing the goal of “enhancing La Jolla Shores.” Whittemore contends a rule requiring the citywide FAR of 0.6 to be implemented in the Shores has been on the books since 2000 but has not been enforced by the city as it should be. After the discussion, the Shores board voted 9-3-1 to recommend that the city apply the rule in all land-use zones, including the La Jolla Shores Planned District. Whittemore will repeat his presentation ahead of a possible vote on reforming FARs in the Shores at the La Jolla Community Planning Association’s next meeting at 6 p.m. Aug. 4 at the La Jolla Rec Center. The Shores association board will not meet in August and will next meet on Sept. 14.

Bishop’s student gets National Merit award by Julie Hom, MPT, NCS
Physical Therapy vs. Lumbar Diskectomy Think that surgery is your only option for effective pain relief from a herniated disk? According to a 2006 study by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, it may not be the only option. Although lumbar diskectomy is a common surgical procedure, its necessity in treating herniated disks has not been established. This study suggests that while surgery may be an effective route to relief for many people, longer term, nonoperative therapies may offer benefits that are similar to, if not equal for patients who elect not to have surgery. Physical therapy is an effective, conservative treatment method to help avoid herniated disc surgery. The Mayfield Clinic in Cincinnati, Ohio – one of the largest neurosurgical practices in the world – recommends that all patients try PT prior to scheduling surgery. The professional therapists at Ability Rehab perform a thorough evaluation of your muscle strength and flexibility, pain levels, joint range of motion, postural, spine, walking mechanics and more. We develop an individualized therapy program to address your specific needs. Our techniques can reduce or eliminate pain, protect the back and quite possibly help you to avoid surgery altogether! Please discuss this option with your doctor. P.S. Call Ability Rehab to get started on a treatment program as soon as possible!

From SealS, a5 best be used. Local government is the best arena in which to frame that debate, she said. An animal rights groups, the Animal Protection and Rescue League (APRL), was in Foster’s court challenging a ruling by the city Planning Commission that had reversed an earlier decision by the City Council that supported a year-round rope at Children’s Pool. The mostly visual barrier is put up from mid-December to mid-May during the marine mammals’ pupping season. Animal rights advocates insist it should be up year-round to protect seals from what they say is ongoing human encroachment. Foster noted tongue-in-cheek that there is an analytical gap “the size of the Grand Canyon” in the Planning Commission’s decision that the rope barrier during pupping season doesn’t constitute encroachment into the public’s rightof-way on the beach, yet it does constitute encroachment the rest of the time. “The Planning Commission needs to address this gap in their reasoning,” she concluded. The judge also said there was other procedural confusion that needs to be clarified as to why the Planning Commission’s decision denying the year-round barrier is not appealable to the California Coastal Commission. APRL attorney Bryan Pease warned that if the Planning Commission makes the same decision it did before that the case “may end up back here again (court).” “I hope that is not the case,” replied Judge Foster.

Students, teachers learning at Summerbridge BY ELIZABETH SCHNEIDER The word of the day was “sportsmanship.” Whenever the word was spoken — and throughout the day’s variety of academic, social and athletic activities, it was spoken often — all of the Summerbridge students within earshot cheered with unrestrained enthusiasm. For Gordon “Zeke” Knight, the founder of the San Diego chapter of the summer academic program for underprivileged students, this emphasis on character development is just as important as the classroom learning. “We’re trying to make sure that these students develop emotionally and socially and develop self-esteem,” he said. “The academics are important, but it’s about the whole package.” Knight, who for years served as development director at The Bishop’s School, says the goal of Summerbridge is twofold: to educate underprivileged students, many of whom are several grade levels behind in school, and to inspire them to strive for higher education and strong character. After being introduced to the program by a friend in San Francisco, Knight brought the program to Bishop’s in 1993. It is funded
entirely through corporate and individual donations and has a board that reads like the who’s who of San Diego. The program has since moved to the La Jolla High School campus — a result of extensive summer construction at Bishop’s — but Knight has stayed heavily involved, as have several of his exstudents. Katie Martin, a Bishop’s alumnus who currently attends Vanderbilt University, took a summer job teaching for Summerbridge several years ago. She never expected that it would change the course of her life. “I came in (to teaching Summerbridge) as a nursing student and came out as an education major,” she said with a laugh. “You really feel like you’re making a difference, and it’s so much fun.” The program is entirely taught by high-achieving college students like Martin, most of whom have no classroom experience. A week of intensive instruction at the beginning of the summer teaches them the basics of education, from creating lesson plans to managing classrooms. Knight says the youth and relative inexperience of the teachers is actually a good thing, bringing
creativity and innovative ideas to the program each year. “You can really feel all the energy between the teachers — we all love each other as much as our students and we all work really hard every day,” Martin said. And if the teachers leave with a desire to go into education (as many of them do), all the better. “That’s exactly what we want to do,” he said. “We want to get good people into education instead of just going off to Wall Street or something like that.” The teachers, who come from a variety of college backgrounds, teach classes in either language arts, math, science or leadership. The students take each class for 40 minutes a day, as well as visits to colleges or educational locations like the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center. And although participation in Summerbridge can inspire many changes in students, from increased academic skills to increased self-esteem, some things will never change. “Everything we do is super fun,” says Ryan Alvarez, a fourth-year Summerbridge student with a near-constant grin. “But my favorite part of the day is definitely recess.”

Riford Center director departs There’s been a change in the guard at La Jolla’s Riford Center. Dona Aumann, executive director at the Center since June 2010, stepped down from her post, effective July 5. “We regret that Dona is no longer there: It was a personnel decision that was not reached easily,” Glen Rasmussen, chair of the Riford Center’s 14-member board, said Thursday. Rasmussen said Nancy Walters, assistant director, is serving as interim head of the facility which is managed by the Friends of the Riford Center, a community-based 501(c)(3) corporation established in 2007, under a lease from the city of San Diego that owns the facility.
The Friends Board of Directors is responsible for strategic oversight of the Riford Center activities and operations. Much of the work at the Riford is undertaken by volunteers. Rasmussen said there were no immediate plans to begin the process to select Aumann’s successor, adding it will be business as usual at the center, which is in the midst of a multi-phase remodel, part of its transformation from senior to adult facility. The Riford Center recently completely a remodel of its central courtyard, a project that included putting in a decorative fountain, drought-tolerant landscaping, new furniture and shade structures. — Dave Schwab
Scientist gets fellowship from Autism Speaks Kristopher Nazor of The Scripps Research Institute has been awarded a two-year Dennis Weatherstone Pre-Doctoral Fellowship by Autism Speaks, the nation’s largest autism science and advocacy group. Nazor is one of eight fellows selected from a field of 50 highly qualified candidates. Projects were chosen for funding based on the strengths of the training plan, research strategy, mentor’s qualifications, and the relevance of the topic to Autism Speaks’ research priority areas.
From merchant, a1 “Her resume and her experience fully qualified her for the position,” he said. “She stood out as the most appropriate person.” Coller added her “enthusiasm for the job” really showed through. Following proper procedures in selecting a new executive director was of paramount importance to the merchants group. Said Coller, “We as an organization are very cognizant of the protocols, rules and requirements. As a nonprofit organization that manages a BID, we want to follow those rules as precisely as possible in order to make the process as transparent as possible.” It was not announced how much the executive director will be paid, but the group’s budget set aside $84,750 in expenses for personnel/office/administration of the total $365,000 in proposed expenditures for the 2012 fiscal year. The group’s basic funding comes from fees paid by merchants in the 30-block district, although some of the total is carryover from the past when the BID was dormant as the city sorted out problems with Promote La Jolla, which previously managed the district. Also last week, the mer-
Nazor, who joined the Scripps Research Kellogg School of Science and Technology in 2008, is working toward his Ph.D. degree under Professor Jeanne Loring, an authority in the emerging field of stem cell research. “We’re very excited about Kit’s study because it will give us ideas about new ways to treat autism syndrome disorders,” Loring said. “He will be using pluripotent stem cell technology to understand how neural development is affected in a genetic form of autism, Fragile X Syndrome.”
chant’s association board learned that the San Diego Convention & Visitors Bureau (ConVis) wants to include the Village in sub-regional marketing plans they’re developing for their overall San Diego brand. “Our goal is to provide economic value by promoting tourism to the region,” said Joe Terzi, ConVis president and CEO. “We have a lot of resources that we would be able to put into an overall marketing campaign in La Jolla.” Until now, the organization has been working primarily with La Jolla’s hotel community. Terzi said ConVis has worked with other sub regions like East County, Coronado and Mission Bay, to develop successful marketing campaigns promoting them under the umbrel-
la of the regional website with the slogan “San Diego owns a sunny outlook.” Paul Whitbeck of MeringCarson, a Sacramento-based advertising agency working with ConVis, said they want to help La Jolla merchants develop a customized marketing plan to “bring people back into the Village and support all of the businesses that are here.” Board member Claudette Berwin asked how much of the $30 million ConVis annual marketing budget would be available to La Jolla. “We don’t say we’re going to put ‘X’ in La Jolla,” Whitbeck answered. “We allocate resources to the region, and then those resources are used to develop promotional images with a message for La Jolla or Mission Valley or wherever.”

Changes cut ‘The Real World’ impact The situation is improving with MTV filming the reality show “The Real World” on a quiet Bird Rock cul-de-sac, though there remains significant disruption that needs to be addressed, said a neighborhood resident. Brandon Wander, who’s critical of the lack of notice the show’s producers gave residents when they rented an oceanfront La Jolla home for the summer-long TV shoot, said “things are settling into a range of experience that’s better than before the police were posted at the roundabout.” But he added, “Things aren’t perfect.” Wander said drunken revelers — the most disconcerting element of MTV’s presence — “pretty much has been shut down at night.” But he said there is still a problem with traffic and outsiders wandering by to take photos. He added there’s a different security guard posted every night, which has led to
a discontinuity in service provided. “I would say 60 percent of the problems have been addressed, and 40 percent remain,” Wander said. Jennifer Davies of First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner’s office said they have not been receiving complaints from neighbors since beefed-up security was introduced on the block about a week ago.

Sanford-Burnham program piques students’ interest in science Brenda hernandez and Kevin Vaquera team up to complete a lab worksheet about their experiments with genetically mutated c. Elegans in Marlene hansen’s genetics lab at the SanfordBurham institute. Photos: ElizabEth schnEidEr
By ElizaBEth SchnEidEr While playing with worms is a childhood experience for many, they’re not usually microscopic or fluorescent green. But for the 12 Preuss School students who participated in the lab experience program at the SanfordBurnham Medical Research Institute, studying geneti-
cally mutated worms under a microscope was just one of the week’s many outlandish experiences. “It was really interesting being able to see things that you don’t get to see in biology class or on a normal field trip,” said Yan Liu, one of the students. “Even after the first day, I saw how much I could love this.”
The 12 students — all rising juniors at the Preuss School — spent each day of the five-day program in a different lab. The day began with a lecture from the scientists, which usually covered both academic matter and the realities of life as a researcher. “Even sitting through lecture wasn’t like learning in
Preuss School student Kevin Vaquera discusses genetic mutations with Marlene hansen during a visit to her lab at the Sanford-Burnham institute. school,” said student Kevin Vaquera. “It’s a different setting, and we chose to be here. Even though we’re learning, it’s still really exciting.” At the end of the week, each student presented a poster about their favorite day — complete with data and photos — at a special luncheon with friends and family. “The presentations … have been some of the best times at this institute,” said Marlene Hansen, a researcher whose lab participated in the program. “They learn so much and, in some of them, it just lights a light — they realize they can do this.” Most of the program participants — all of whom endured a rigorous application process to participate — already were interested in the field of science, but many of them said they had never
before considered research as a career option. “I always thought labs were boring — just sitting there looking through a microscope,” Liu said. “It turns out that it’s really interesting to be able to look at what’s inside of things.” Hansen says the summer program aims to both to open students’ eyes to how research works and to make researchers — who are often put on a pedestal by younger students — seem more accessible. Her lab, which studies the molecular mechanisms of aging, employs everyone from undergraduate interns to post-doctoral fellows. All of the researchers have lunch with the students at the end of the lab experience, giving the students a chance to get to know them on a less formal level and ask questions. For many past partici-
pants, the newly piqued interest in research has led to further accomplishments, from prestigious internships at research firms around San Diego to science fair victories. Alumni of the summer program are now attending many of the nation’s top universities — an even more impressive feat considering the fact that Preuss students aim to be the first in their families to attend college. “It’s amazing how much they learned and how much more confident they get,” Hansen said. “It’s so rewarding — it’s almost unparalleled in anything else I do.” And for the many students who leave the program with a desire to pursue science further, the end result is much more meaningful than simply playing with worms.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS Pacific Sotheby’s Realty gives sellers international exposure Those doing business with the new La Jolla office of Pacific Sotheby’s Realty will get something extra there — international exposure. “The brand really speaks for itself; it’s an internationally known symbol of quality and expertise,” said Brian Arrington of Pacific Sotheby’s Realty. He and wife Colby Monet Arrington recently opened the branch office in the Wall Street Building at 7855 Ivanhoe Ave., #110. “If anybody lists their home with us, they’re truly going to have global exposure, much more so than any other company comes close to offering,” said Arrington. The company’s website, www.pacificsothebysrealty.com, stresses that its agents aren’t “one transaction” agents, but are “trusted advisors for life” who understand the secret of success is building lasting relationships with clients. “Many of our agents have become an important part in the lives of their clients, not only helping them with their real estate transactions but with the transactions of their children as they grow up and start families of their own,” according to the website.
Sotheby office managers are Rick Hagen, Brian Arrington, Garry Major and Carey Guthrie. Photo by Kent horner The new La Jolla branch is one of five in San Diego, which are all managed by Carey Guthrie, Pacific Sotheby’s Realty General Manager. Guthrie said their San Diego realty firm was singled out by the high-end auction house as a new franchise location. Guthrie noted there are also Pacific Sotheby’s branches in La Mesa, Pt. Loma, Mission Hills and Coronado. Having contracts with companies around the globe has decided advantages. Said Guthrie: “With buyers out there, we have the inventory. If you’re a seller, we’re the only ones who can give them that maximum exposure — and that’s where we shine.” For more information about Pacific Sotheby’s Realty in La Jolla call (619) 944-8009.

But, sometimes, good intentions slow the system down, rather than speed it up. With Sherri Lightner’s help, a dent was made in the backlog of repairs needed around La Jolla and we know from driving around town and talking to the supervisors in the city’s public works division that it’s an ongoing battle. They strive to get fixes made within 72 hours of receiving a report — and sooner if the hole is considered especially dangerous, in which
case they’ll get it fixed as soon as they can get a crew on it. Here’s how it works: Calls to the city’s Emergency Service Request hotline at (619) 527-7500 go straight into the work order system and are processed immediately, according to city officials. The same holds for reports through the city’s website at http://apps.sandiego.gov/streetdiv/ or via e-mail to the department. Now there’s also “San Diego 311,” a smartphone app being touted by Councilman and mayoral candidate Carl DeMaio. In a press release, he said, it “serves as a one-stop shop of city
services and streamlines how those services are provided.” But that doesn’t seem to be quite right. Using the app (http://tinyurl. com/6k6tnvu), one can take a photo with a smartphone and send it in to DeMaio’s office. “If the report is received during business hours, it is processed almost immediately,” said DeMaio’s spokesman Jeff Powell. A great idea, but for now, it is not quite as seamless as they make it sound, and we wonder if it’s not more of a public relations move than a real solution. Any 311 reports go into a spreadsheet that someone on DeMaio’s staff (often interns, said Powell) enters into the city’s CompleteGov system.

Like many Americans on the 4th of July, our Constitution and First Amendment rights were on my mind when I went to a small local beach called the Children’s Pool. The Children’s Pool was designed as a protected bathing area. Numerous lifeguards are on watch at the Pool’s permanent lifeguard station. Ironically, an organization called “Sealwatch” states on their website and signs at their “freespeech table” that “young swimmers will find safer and more enjoyable water play at other nearby beaches and pools.” This statement is false and dangerous. Seal protection is important but the lives of humans, and especially children, are more important. Therefore, advocating closure of the beach and sending them to unprotected beaches is completely irresponsible. Conducting their activities as “free peech” guaranteed by the First Amendment doesn’t make it right. Likewise, the First Amendment does not make it right to abuse other people. On the 4th of July, I witnessed seal activists scream-

Wright story prompts another remembrance The story in the Light about the Frank Lloyd Wright program scheduled for July 21 hit home for me. Having been born and raised in Racine, Wisc., Wright’s design of the S. C. Johnson Company buildings was a part of my early life. We watched the construction and toured the fantastic office building and later research tower. Most people are not aware that Wright also designed some special furniture for the build-
ing taunts, obscene names, intimidating remarks and threats to get their point across. This bullying is nothing new for the Children’s Pool and has unfortunately become “accepted,” as repeatedly documented in newspaper articles and YouTube videos. It is unacceptable for the City of San Diego to allow this behavior in the name of “free speech.” Yet, the city refuses to enforce its own laws when it comes to seal activists at the Children’s Pool. I am left with this question; at what point does the First Amendment right to free speech protect seals but hurt humans? Harassment of seals is a federal offense. However, our laws also forbid harassing and bullying humans. When seal activists are permitted to cloak their activities in First Amendment protection and intimidate the City of San Diego through lawsuits, who will stop the abuse of humans and protect the children? If the City of San Diego fails to “protect and serve” by enforcing its laws, where can we turn? ■ For an extended version of this piece, go to www.lajollalight.com/la-jolla-news/news/ opinion/.
A city spokesman said via e-mail that “it would be extremely costly to integrate the 311 commercial software with the city’s proprietary system.” For now, they are keeping an eye on the “workload the 311 system requires.” If it increases, they will ask District 5 staff to enter the reports via the web system — “which is faster and more efficient than the system they’re now using,” the spokesman said. As we have noted, anything that gets potholes fixed is a good thing. For now, though, we recommend reporting those dips to the city’s hotline for faster response.
COMMUNITY VIEW BY ELLEN SHIVELY La Jolla Friends of the Seals At the core of the problem at Casa Beach is the city’s ill-defined policy on “shared use.” Sharing is a good thing. Who can oppose sharing? Beach access users claim they simply want to enjoy the beach. Humans can go anywhere anytime and the seals can go anywhere at any time also, say their signs. Where do we demonstrate the intricate balance of privilege and mutual obligations between ourselves and the other species requiring use of this beach? The balancing works when the boundaries are made
ing, including some three-legged chairs. One day Wright got a phone call from a very irate Mr. Johnson. He was embarrassed and furious that one of his important visitors had fallen off a chair and crashed to the floor. Johnson demanded that Wright come to Racine immediately and correct the furniture. Wright calmly asked, “Was he sitting on one of the three-legged chairs?” Johnson said, “Yes.” “And he has two legs of his own?” Johnson again said, “Yes.” Wright said, “Any damn fool who can’t balance on five legs deserves to fall on his ass!” And slammed down the phone.

clear. They are not made clear at Casa Beach. The city chooses to ignore a fundamental fact of human nature so apparent at this site: the overpowering dominance in which we choose to engage our right to “use” the beach. Not every use of anything, including public places, is compatible with every other use. Shared use does not describe the impacts of unrestrained shared use. We must define it, and that description is missing. The enjoyment of wildlife demands a certain humility, restraint and yes – boundaries. The doublespeak needs to end to restore order to this chaotic scene at the Children’s Pool.

Homeowner evaluating decision on beach access By Dave SchwaB Staff Writer If he agrees with the decision, La Jolla homeowner Ure Ure Kretowicz will get to keep the unpermitted improvements on his property but will have to give up rights to an easement that could permit public access to the beach below his home. The California Coastal Commission issued a decision last week on the contro-
versy over the property at 7957 Princess St., where a locked gate now blocks access to all but lifeguards and other emergency personnel. The decision also rejects Kretowicz’s offer to pay $3.3 million to fund access improvements elsewhere in La Jolla. The commission’s decision was made at a meeting in the San Francisco Bay area on July 14.
Kretowicz asked commissioners for 20 days time to consider the terms of their settlement agreement proposal. In an interview Monday, he warned that allowing access there “will be a disaster for the neighborhood because there will be traffic problems on a substandard street and cul-de-sac with no parking.” Lee McEachern of the com-
Firefighters douse fire at La Jolla house Five fire engines from three different stations, two in La Jolla and one in Pacific Beach, responded to and quickly put out a small blaze at 7157 Eads Ave. in the Village of La Jolla, a couple doors down from La Jolla High School’s Edwards Stadium. “The call came in at 10:57 a.m. this morning,” said Lee Swanson, San Diego Fire-Rescue spokesman, on July 18. “There were engines from Nautilus, Soledad Mountain Road and Pacific Beach, about 25 firefighters with battalion chiefs and an ambulance.” The fire ignited when a lighted candle on the mantel apparently tipped and started nearby materials on fire, Swanson said. After a smoke alarm went off, the resident got up and tried to put it out with hose, but was overcome with smoke and was rescued by firefighters. He was taken to UCSD Medical Center in Hillcrest for treatment of smoke inhalation. One firefighter

An accomplished Realtor, Cheryl’s entire career was spent in La Jolla where, for the past 20 years, she was associated with Realty Experts where her coworkers were like a second family. Cheryl will always be remembered for her love of life, infectious laugh, and devotion to her friends and family. Her sense of humor was with her throughout her battle with cancer right up to the end. She was the guardian angel of injured wildlife, lost puppies and stray kitties. She actively supported animal shelters that had a “no kill” policy. Politically, she was a proud, sign carrying member of the “Tea Party” and was very active in their rallies for fiscal responsibility. Cheryl is predeceased by her father, James C Bennett.

The first scientific results from a 2009 Scripps Institution of Oceanography voyage to the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre offer a stark view of human pollution of an area of the ocean, labeled the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch,” where debris is highly dispersed across thousands of miles. Two graduate students with the Scripps Environmental Accumulation of Plastic Expedition (SEAPLEX), found evidence of plastic waste in more than nine percent of the stomachs of fish collected during the research voyage. Of the 141 fishes spanning 27 species dissected in the study, 9.2 percent of the stomach contents of mid-water fishes were found to contain plastic debris, primarily broken-down bits smaller than a human fingernail. Based on this evidence, it is estimated that fish in the intermediate ocean depths of the North Pacific ingest plastic at a rate of 12,000 to 24,000 tons per year. The results appear in the journal Marine Ecology Progress Series. News release at http:// bit.ly/jd7nTm. Nanoparticles disguised
A novel method of disguising nanoparticles as red blood cells enables them to evade the body’s immune system in order to deliver cancer-fighting drugs straight to a tumor. The method, developed by UCSD researchers, involves wrapping the membrane of a red blood cell around a biodegradable polymer nanoparticle containing a cocktail of small-
molecule drugs. Stealth nanoparticles, coated in synthetic material such as polyethylene glycol, are already being used successfully in clinical cancer treatment to deliver chemotherapy drugs. The coating creates a protection layer to suppress the immune system giving the nanoparticle time to deliver its payload. Synthetically coated nanoparticles can, however, only circulate in the body for a few hours. In the new study, nanoparticles cloaked in the membranes of red blood cells circulated in the bodies of lab mice for nearly two days without being attacked by the immune system. The research appears in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. News release at http://bit.ly/l3Ig0D. Flavonoids lessen diabetic complications
Research at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies suggests that a naturally occurring flavonoid (known as fisetin), found in fruits and vegetables, lessens the complications of diabetes. In plants, flavonoids act as sunscreens and protect leaves and fruit from insects. As foods, they are implicated in the protective effect of the Mediterranean Diet. Researchers reasoned that, like other flavonoids, fisetin might improve a spectrum of disorders seen in diabetic patients. Using mice bred to exhibit human type 1 diabetes, researchers fed the animals a fisetin-enriched diet. While the mice remained diabetic acute kidney enlargement associated with type 1 diabetes was reversed, high urine protein levels (a sure sign of kidney disease) fell, and other complications were ameliorated. By the way, the most abundant source of fisetin is strawberries. The findings appear in the online journal PLoS ONE. News release at http://bit.ly/jJur1v. — Lynne Friedmann is a science writer based in Solana Beach.
Scripps Institute group joins tumor registry The Scripps Translational Science Institute (STSI) has joined a national consortium of research institutions that is building a library of primary human tumors with the goal of developing highly targeted cancer therapies. In its role as a consortium member, STSI
will provide solid human tumor samples to the Jackson Laboratory (JAX), which will graft them into mouse models for scientific study. STSI scientists will then have access to the models to conduct research on how to better understand and treat cancer, including the potential for tumor-specific therapies.

Kayaking offers unique view of La Jolla La Jolla Prep finds By Phil Dailey phildailey@lajollalight.com You have not seen La Jolla until you’ve see it from a kayak. That’s one reason why it’s fast becoming one of the top five things to do in San Diego. It was nearly two decades ago when Michael Luscomb had a big idea to start up a service that would allow locals and tourist alike to see La Jolla in a whole new light. Fast-forward to 2011 and Luscomb, the president of La Jolla Kayak (located two blocks from La Jolla Shores Beach) is pretty happy that he was the first person to offer kayaking at La Jolla Shores. There are now six kayaking services in town and for Luscomb, his operation has expanded from six kayaks in 1995 to more than 140 today. “I didn’t see anything at first. I’m a surfer by trade and grew up at WindanSea Beach,” Luscomb said. Originally, Luscomb was interested in starting up a tour with rafts to explore the Cove and all the caves, but “it just didn’t pan out because of all the expenses and there’s no dock down here,” he said. From there he had the idea from a friend in Costa Rica who had told him about kayaks.

LJYB Bronco 11s Advance to Zone Tournament La Jolla’s Bronco 11s All-Star team has enjoyed three straight wins in the Super Region tournament thanks to solid pitching from Carson Greene and Sterling Hayes and supported by a near flawless defense and hitting up and down the line-up. Coach Dave Hammel has so much confidence in his team that he plays every player in every game. In fact, one of the tournament officials told him that all the other teams play with a set line up and keep three or four players on the bench in case of emergencies. Coach Hammel liked their odds when everyone gets in the game and they played for the Super Region Championship on Monday night and have already earned a bid to play in the Western Zone tournament later in the week as the No. 1 or No. 2 seed from Southern California. Carson Greene got the tournament started last Thursday by pitching a 13-2 gem against Anaheim that was called after five innings because of the mercy rule. The LJ Bronco 11s scored nine runs in the top half of the 1st inning with Miles Matalon and Sterling Hayes both hitting doubles with the bases loaded that scored three runs each. In their second game, it was Sterling Hayes’ turn to pitch a complete game on Saturday against a highly touted team from La Canada with La Jolla coming out on top 7-1. In the semifinal game on Sunday evening, the Bronco 11s were really tested by Torrance American, whose ace pitcher kept Torrance on top 6-2
through five innings. It was the bottom of the sixth and La Jolla was facing a new pitcher when things turned around and four straight batters were walked. Not only was the Torrance pitcher struggling to find the strike zone, he proceeded to balk a couple of times to bring in more runs for La Jolla before they completed their comeback with an 8-6 lead. With Greene trying to close out the game in the final frame, he found himself in a jam with runners on second and third base and no outs. The next batter popped out to second for one out. The next batter hit a shot into the gap in left center where Connor Harrison made a diving catch that saved two runs from scoring and he nearly doubled up the runner at second. The game ended on a hard grounder into the hole at shortstop where Sterling Hayes made an outstanding stop and perfect relay to beat the runner by a step, preserving the La Jolla victory 8-6. The win advanced them into the championship game on Monday night and secured their invitation to the Western Zone tournament starting tonight in Walnut, Calif.

Philanthropist gets ready for channel swim for charity Blair Cannon, a local philanthropist and vice president of Bernstein Global Wealth Management in San Diego, and his coach, worldrenowned open-water swimmer Anne Cleveland, announced that Cannon will swim the 21 miles across the Catalina Channel to raise money for children’s organi-
zations in the San Diego area as part of the Cannon Catalina Challenge. Cannon’s attempt will take place Aug. 5 and is expected to take nine to 14 hours. Aiming to raise $10,000 for each mile, Cannon’s sanctioned swim will benefit the annual fund of Monarch School.
From KAyAK, A18 “I really wanted to kinda see if there was a niche for it, and there was,” he said. “Nobody believed in my idea.” Taking a tour out into the Pacific is more than sightseeing. “I try to offer as much history as I can of the area and the sea life so they get the big picture of what’s offered in this area,” said guide Erik Sullivan, who is also a teacher at Hoover High and guides in the summer to stay busy and meet new people. On any given day it’s not hard to find locals and visitors out on the water checking out the Seven
Caves, La Jolla’s Underwater Park, the seals, Garibaldi, leopard sharks and dolphins that swim below. “It was a blast,” JohnJay Van Es said. “(Sullivan) knew so much about the cove and history of La Jolla, and I grew up here, too, but I didn’t know any of that.” Van Es was with his wife and three children. For Luscomb, his little idea now gets 25,000 people annually in the water just from his store alone. “For even longtime La Jollans, if they have never been, they will likely get some history on the Cove and education on what’s beneath them,” he said.

Running Riford Library keeps Catherine Greene doing what she loves
for film about the surf scene in La Jolla
If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? I’d bring back The Cove Theater.
By Steven Mihailovich hen entering the La Jolla home of Gary Seagraves to meet him and collaborator Taylor Butz, there’s no need to guess at the passion that drives and defines the pair. Almost a dozen surfboards stand near the doorway in a pen created to hold them; the numerous artworks on the walls consist exclusively of photos and other depictions of surfers riding the waves; and even the coffee table is ingeniously crafted from a surfboard. Seagraves and Butz are surfers through and through. What makes them remarkable is that they’ve harnessed their zeal to produce a documentary about the surfing culture and personalities at their favorite haunt: WindanSea and the La Jolla surf world. “It just kind of shows our little scene,” said Seagraves. “It’s not ours but we’re a part of it. Our goal is for the film to be a cult classic. People 30 years from now can watch it and know what it was like at this time and place, like stepping into a time machine.” Titled “Nightmare on Neptune,” the 30-minute documentary interviews legends like Skip Frye and Mike Hynson as they reminisce about the development of the local culture while showcasing local talent such as Michael Myers and JP Marengo riding colossal breakers from the 2010 El Niño winter. The film features three generations of La Jolla surfers, Butz said, adding, “We have guys from a generation when

Catherine Greene was raised in rural New Jersey where she spent her youth playing with her brother and friends at neighboring dairy farms, swimming in ponds, riding her bike, and reading. She said she used to play librarian to all catherine of their family’s books, and remembers at age 7 or Greene 8 asking Santa for one of those rubber rotating date-due stamps for Christmas. (She still has books with her “stamps” in them.) After getting a degree in economics, she went to graduate schools in Boston and Texas for more economics, and then to New York City where she worked on Wall Street as a financial writer and short-term financial instruments trader. “The work was fun and remunerative, but it lacked meaning for me,” she said. “I left the firm and went back to graduate school in NYC for my library science degree. It’s been a brain party and labor of love ever since.” She and her husband moved to La Jolla from Boston in 1981, living in Birdrock and Muirlands for 13 years. Their three children were born and schooled in La Jolla. She now resides in Coronado, and continues to manage the La Jolla Riford Library. What brought you to La Jolla? The Pacific Ocean and the weather. What makes this area special to you? The surprising variety of people and easy, rewarding friendships.

La Jolla Cultural Partners
Jennifer nettles and Kristian Bush of the country-music duo Sugarland have also achieved pop-music success with hit songs like ‘Baby Girl.’ COURTESY PHOTOS
By Jenna Jay Grammy Award-winning country music duo Sugarland will perform at UCSD’s RIMAC Field on Saturday, July 23, with special guests Sara Bareilles and Casey James. The concert is part of Sugarland’s current “The Incredible Machine Tour,” and is one of a few big-name shows expected at UCSD this summer. RIMAC Field will also host concerts with Death Cab for Cutie on Aug. 16 and Bassnectar on Sept. 10. Sugarland will perform as part of the five-year agreement UCSD reached with the Los Angeles-based entertainment company Nederlander Concerts that also brought Rise Against and Bad Religion to RIMAC Arena earlier this spring. “This show is part of an exciting new trend at UCSD,” said Alex Kushner, manager of campus events at the university. “Concert bookings (here) have dramatically increased over the years. We have gone from having 20 concerts a year to 250. The exciting new concert in-

Casey James and Sara Bareilles will open for Sugarland. Kristian Bush, the duo has been a country music favorite since 2004, when they tapped into the industry with the hit song “Baby Girl.” Since then, Sugarland has sold more than 9 million records and posted seven No. 1 singles on the country charts. Sugarland has been recipient of trophies from the Grammy Awards, Country Music Association, American Music Awards, Academy of Country Music and CMT Music Awards. Nettles and Bush describe their new album as a release made for stadium shows.

“This record is designed to play in very large places and to communicate with a large group of people,” Bush said in press materials. “When you have an instrument as powerful and as graceful as Jennifer’s voice, you don’t want to tiptoe in. You really go for it! And those types of songs are often where Jennifer and I intersect musically.” In addition to Sugarland’s brand of poppy contemporary country music, the July 23 concert will also feature “American Idol” alum Casey James and pop star Sara Bareilles as opening acts.

true or false?

There are three types of ocean waves: wind-driven waves, tidal waves, and tsunamis. True: Wind-driven waves form as wind passes over the surface of the open water. Energy from the wind is transferred into the topmost layers of water via friction and pressure. These forces develop a disturbance that is transported through the seawater; the wave moves, not the water itself. Tidal waves are the largest and form by the gravitational forces of the Earth, sun, and moon. These forces pull on the oceans causing them to swell on either side of the Earth (the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon). As the Earth rotates, the tides go in and out (the Earth moves but the bulge of water remains in line with the moon, giving the appearance that the tides are moving when it is the Earth that is moving). Tsunamis are large, powerful waves caused by geological disturbances like earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions.
Readers add their favorite actresses to list of screen legends By susan DemaGGio sdemaggio@lajollalight.com Just for fun, in last week’s issue advancing a photo exhibit in honor of Ginger Rogers’ 100th Anniversary, I included the American Film Institute’s list of the top 25 greatest female screen legends of American cinema, pointing out that my favorite actress of that era, Jean Arthur, was omitted. I invited readers to submit their favorite stars for a La Jolla Light List. The responses follow. Thank you to those who took the time to share their thoughts! n From Drew Smith: How can anyone who’s serious about film even discuss a list of screen legends without including Eva Marie Saint? Her work in “On The Waterfront” alone warrants inclusion. Her deft, subtle skills as an actress
made the performances of Brando, Newman and Grant (among others) possible. It’s so difficult giving “actress legends” their just due. For most of the 20th century, cinema catered to male-driven stories and women were left to play the woefully under-written, often stereotypical, supporting roles. Those few parts for strong female leads were delved out to the studio darlings — most of who appear on the AFI list. But are these women better actors? Try to think of Marilyn Monroe in some of the poor, workhorse roles Jean Simmons (another of my personal favorites) had to flesh-out and bring to life. I don’t think she could hold a candle. So while they say “legends,” it’s really legendary personas, not legendary actresses. The real work was often left to those great un-
sung heroines who will never make this list and who’s name just escapes memory when they appear in some Saturday afternoon screening on TMC. n From Eeme Bross: Just finished reading your July 14 issue that lists the 25 greatest screen legends, all of who had to have made their first film on or before 1950. I know this is a list put out by the AFI and not your responsibility, but one might note that neither Grace Kelly nor Sophia Loren made their film debuts on or before this date (both around 1951). One would think that Susan Hayward would be on the list, also, in place of one of these “icons.” n From Helen Hammond: What about Joan Fontaine, Lana Turner and Olivia de Havilland?

More than 50 years of good taste and good fun at La Jolla’s beloved Harry’s Coffee Shop (and diner) By Will Parson hen it comes to the friendly folks tending the booth seats and barstools at Harry’s Coffee, you could say that time has been on their side. Owner John Rudolph can point out a few things that haven’t changed since his parents Harry and Cathy Rudolph opened the place over five decades ago. But Rudolph, who owns Harry’s with his siblings Liz Gotfredson and Harry Jr., also relishes the new additions. “There are items on the menu that have been there from day one, and then there are some that have kind of changed with time or happened by accident, which I think are the best ways to come up with some creative items.” One of those creative items is the BW Benny, a combination of two of the restaurant’s most popular dishes: the Eggs Benedict, and the Bacon Waffle. It’s not even on the menu yet, but Rudolph points out that about a third of his clientele don’t need menus anyway. He’s already sold hundreds of the new dish. Other popular breakfast items include the Chicken Fried Steak

■ This week: Harry’s Silver Fox Milkshake and Eggs, Greek Omelet, and the granola, as well as the Breakfast Burrito, which appeared at the request of diners. For lunch, the Tuna Melt, Chicken Salad Sandwich, Mexi Burger, and Club Sandwich are popular choices. Fresh fruits include blueberries, blackberries, strawberries and even Hawaiian papaya. Another point of interest is the Root Beer Milkshake. Rudolph says it’s like drinking the best part of a root beer float, and it is one of a variety of shakes that bring people to the barstools even at 7 o’clock in the morning. The old-fashioned barstool is definitely the center of activity at Harry’s, and the best place to mix with a diverse array of regulars. One Sunday found Bruce and
Carla Taub seated at the bar with their young daughter Bradey. Bruce said they’ve been visiting for several years. “It’s very close to my home and the food is consistently good and the wait staff and everybody that works here is great.” Behind Taub on the wall are photos of Harry Rudolph Sr. standing next to baseball Hall of Famer Willie Mays and one of Harry’s father, pictured in his New York restaurant. Norman Rockwell illustrations dominate the opposite wall, but some hang near the photos of the Rudolphs. Appropriately, Rockwell’s colorful Americana blends with the true-to-life nostalgia of the Rudolph family and their restaurant in La Jolla.

FROM suRF FiLM, B1 surfing was at a different place and they’re not going to be around forever.” Seagraves said the emphasis on the local surf culture suffuses the entire film down to the soundtrack, which features only local La Jolla and San Diego bands such as Bulldozer, Bad Card and Tarus Mateen Band. The result is a loving tribute that takes pains not to reveal its secret to a broader audience. “We don’t even name the spots because we don’t want people to come,” Seagraves said. “It’s about localism. We felt it was our duty to include the guys that represent.” Resident Jean Paul de Kervor, who first surfed at WindanSea in 1972 and was crowned National Champion in Mexico in the over40-years-old category in 2009, said he took part in the project because of its local flavor. De Kervor’s musician son, Alec, contributed to the soundtrack. De Kervor said he has appeared in a number of surfing films but “Nightmare on Neptune” was the first time he was interviewed for a documentary, talking about the crowds that led to an accident that caused him injuries requiring two surgeries and an eight-day stay at the hospital. Ironically, de Kervor didn’t surf for the movie because of those afflictions. “The old me would have just put my head down and tackled a wave,” de Kervor said. “The movie is a documentary that shows a snapshot in time. There are not a lot of top pros in it, but the guys who are surfing there every day.” According to Jane Schmauss, historian at the California Surf Museum in Oceanside, although WindanSea has
“There’s a segment of La Jolla that doesn’t want to admit that surfing is a huge part of their culture and development.” — Jane Schmauss Historian at the California Surf Museum in Oceanside been highlighted in many memorable surfing movies, such as “Endless Summer” and “Liquid Stage,” Seagraves and Butz’s film could very well be the first entirely about La Jolla surfing. Ever since Woody Brown first surfed WindanSea in 1938, Schmauss said some La Jolla residents have deliberately ignored the surfing roots of their affluent community, just as well known for its restaurants, art galleries and theater. “There’s a segment of La Jolla that doesn’t want to admit that surfing is a huge part of their culture and development,” Schmauss said. Surfboard designer and shaper Carl Ekstrom, who was born in 1941 and raised at WindanSea, also couldn’t recall a documentary focused solely on his old neighborhood. Seagraves has been a surfboard shaper in La Jolla since 1991 and Butz came to San Diego from Seattle to major in film at San Diego State University as much as to surf. Although 21 years apart in age, Seagraves and Butz teamed up in November 2009 to make a short promotional video about Seagraves’ surfboards. However, when they started filming during the El Niño winter, Seagraves
said the duo knew they had something larger in their hands. “It turned into a bigger project because we started getting great shots of other guys [surfing],” he said. “The waves were really good. Epic waves. It hasn’t been that good since.” Adding the interviews and shots of daily life, the filmmakers ended up with 50 hours of video when they finished shooting this June. While the editing was completed earlier this month, Butz said the process was fairly effortless because of the quality of footage. “There was a lot to go through,” Butz said. “But the story told itself. We just pieced it together when we went through it.” The film cost a paltry $5,000 to make, Seagraves noted. Although the pair plan on submitting their documentary to the almost 100 surf film festivals nationally by Butz’s count, they can’t contemplate premiering their work anywhere but in La Jolla. Toward that end, the documentary will be shown to potential investors and distributors at a private screening to be held at Hennessey’s Tavern. A date was not yet determined at press time. “You don’t want to come out of the gate half-assed,” Seagraves said. “You want to have your (stuff) together.” Seagraves said their ultimate aim is that the documentary gratifies the subjects that it glorifies: the local surfers themselves. “You know if your own crew is stoked on it, and they’ll be watching critically, then everyone else is going to be stoked,” Seagraves said. “We want it to be authentic and have soul. Soul is the goal.”

You go ‘gold’ girls! Locals earn Girl Scout’s highest honor Girl Scouts San Diego hailed the community service achievements of area Scouts at its recent annual Gold Award ceremony at the Joe and Vi Jacobs Center in southeast San Diego. The recipients included four La Jollans and a University City High School student. Their Gold Award projects focused on preserving aspects of local history. Bay ByrneSim, and fellow 2011 Bishop’s School graduate Emily Hoge, were members of Girl Scout Troop 3451 for 11 and 12 years, respectively. ByrneSim, daughter of Brindan and Michael Sim, earned her award for “Teenagers Create La Jollan History,” an exhibit spotlighting the lives of youth over various time periods. “I created a place where teenagers and el-
The Girl Scout Gold Award honorees, from left: Emily Hoge, Bay ByrneSim, Elyssa Kanter, Giulia Dugo and Nazaré Simas. Courtesy ders could come together to explore history and share memories through old yearbooks and crumbling photos. Even though La Jolla has changed over time, we found common ground,” she said. Hoge, daughter of Martha Guy and Charles Hoge, helped low-income seniors share their stories with future generations through her project “Making it Per-
sonal: Teens and Senior Preserving History Together.” She donated the transcripts to the San Diego Historical Society and the San Diego Senior Community Center (where the interviewees reside). Emily plans to major in history and film studies at Wesleyan University. Nazaré Simas, daughter of Teri and Ron Simas, earned her award by saluting her
family’s cultural roots. Her project was, “A Pictorial History of the San Diego Portuguese Festa Queens: 100 Years in the Making.” She said the project “took on a life of its own” as she investigated the past, tracking down former Festa queens, listening to inspiring stories, and collecting images. Nazaré is a senior at University City High who has been a
member of Girl Scout Troop 3145 for 12 years. Pepperdine University sophomore Elyssa Kanter, daughter of Cathy (Elyssa’s troop leader) and Elliott Kanter, is a member of the La Jolla High Class of 2011, where she created a 1,000-square-foot science garden for her project, “Life’s a Garden — Dig it!” “All the plants are blooming, and the new Viking Science Garden looks beautiful,” she said. She was a member of Girl Scout Troop 99633 for nine years. Giulia Dugo, a 2011 graduate of The Bishop’s School, and daughter of Dominic and Milena Dugo, has been a member of Girl Scout Troop 3243 since 2001. For her project, “Cookies for a Cause,” she created a club at her school
to bake desserts for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House, where she also held cookie-decorating classes. Her goal was to “help the guests feel more at home and less anxious.”
About the Gold Award ■ Girl Scouting’s highest honor recognizes the positive impact girls in grades 9-12 have on their communities. Each recipient spends two to three years completing a seven-step process that includes exploring career interests, colleges, internships and jobs. It culminates when the Scout plans, executes and evaluates a major service project based on a personal passion that addresses the needs of a community. San Diego’s 2011 honorees joined the elite 5.4 percent of Gold Award winners nation-wide. More at sdgirlscouts.org

Fashion Film Festival II will light up La Jolla next weekend By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt “Funny Face,” starring Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire, with iconic fashion photographer Richard Avedon as consultant, and designs by Hubert de Givenchy. You’ve seen that 54-year-old film on TV, right? Thanks to the Internet, fashion film has come a long way since then. These days, films are briefer, edgier, sexier, and take the concept of style to a whole new level. And there are festivals around the world showing the latest, greatest works of the hottest fashion filmmakers. But there’s only one fest in North America, and it’s right here — the La Jolla Fashion Film Festival. LJFFF is the brainchild of Fred Sweet, CEO of San Diego Model Management, the
largest talent agency south of Los Angeles. He also produces “Fashion Film Network” on Facebook, a curated look at the community of fashion film creators that has a following of 5,000 worldwide. “I’ve had a fascination with the Internet my whole life, Festival and I’ve been founder watching Fred sweet fashion videos evolve on the Web,” he said. “When fashion moved from print to the Internet, it started to move, and it became even more interesting, and more erotic. I started thinking: some of these pieces are so fantastic now, we should show them to people.” His original idea was to

gather some short films together and show them to a few dozen of his staff, friends, and clients. The inaugural festival last year ended up drawing several hundred people to screenings of some 30 films. Riding the crest of what now is a worldwide phenomenon, the second annual LJFFF promises to be even bigger and better than the first. From more than 4,000 submissions, 40 films were chosen, each from 1 to 15 minutes long. “Just right for the Twitter generation,” Sweet said. The filmmakers hail from style-conscious cities like New York, London, Paris, Berlin and Hong Kong. They may not be household words here, but they’ve got great fashion cred. Directors who will be attending the festival include: Peruvian-born, Sorbonnetrained, Toronto-based Miguel Jacob; Tak Kuroha (born in Tokyo, raised in Italy, and now living in L.A. and London); Miguel Angel Font Bisier, “one of Valencia Spain’s most influential artists”; New York’s Marcus K Jones, “an ascendant force in today’s fashion films”; and Jacques Dequeker, named “Best Fashion Photographer in Brazil.” There will also be an assortment of actors, produc-

Last year’s films were shown on an outdoor screen at the Cove. “There were too many variables — weather conditions, ambient noise, special audio requirements,” Sweet said. “This year, we’re at the Museum of Contemporary Art, which is perfect. It’s classy, beautiful, and there are no technical issues.”

One of Sweet’s goals is to make LJFFF the West Coast version of New York Fashion Week, a major industry event that also attracts international media and fashionistas. “We’ve moved the date of this year’s festival later into the summer, to take weather out of the equation, and still have it far enough away from the fall fashion season for our attendees to stay focused on our event,” he said.

Board sets dinners with its artists to raise funds for The Playhouse The La Jolla Playhouse launched “Spotlight Dinners,” a new fund-raising project with a series of five intimate events at private homes of Playhouse supporters throughout the year. According to organizers, each event will feature “a sumptuous dinner and a presentation by members of the creative team of an upcoming production.” Limited to 50 people, these exclusive evenings will generate funds to support the Playhouse’s mission of serving as a safe harbor for unsafe work. The first “Spotlight Din-
ner,” took place July 18 at Rancho Santa Fe home of Playhouse board member Linda L. Chester and Dr. Kenneth Rind. The next is set for 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 11 at the home of board members Lucille and Ron Neeley. Participants can tour the Neeley’s one-of-a-kind concrete, wood and glass home, designed by Mexico City urban planner and architect Alberto Kalach, perched

Birch Aquarium hosts a green bash over the blue Pacific If you go
Kitchen Shrink By Catharine L. Kaufman “It’s bizarre that the produce manager is more important to my children’s health than the pediatrician.” — Meryl Streep “Shipping is a terrible thing to do to vegetables. They probably get jet-lagged, just like people.” — Elizabeth Berry When the Scripps Birch Aquarium partners with Waters Fine Catering for an event, you get a divine, sustainable soiree with killer ambience overlooking the blue Pacific. Such was the recent launch for the aquarium’s new, interactive exhibit, “Boundless Energy,” the kind
■ What: ‘Boundless Energy,’ science exhibit ■ When: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily ■ Where: Birch Aquarium, 2300 Expedition Way, La Jolla ■ Admission: $8.50-$12 ■ Contact: (858) 534-FISH ■ Website: http://aquarium.ucsd. edu/Exhibits/ I used to have (and didn’t appreciate) before I had kids. It shows off high-tech turbines capturing wind power, mechanical fish harvesting a behemoth of solar energy, and wave tanks and water tables creating green energy out of the blue. The ocean and wind provide a motherload of clean, natural energy that gives the soil, air and water a happier and healthier place for nature’s bounty of fruits, veggies, seafood and land food to thrive. Waters and Company catering, boasts about
using regional, farmstead produce that let the seasons guide the menu, sustainable seafood, sound animal husbandry practices, no antibiotics or growth hormones in their locally raised meats, handcrafted, organic and artisan grains, flour and dairy and free-range eggs. “This exhibit focuses on energizing kids about energy in the natural world,” said Nigelia Hillgarth, the aquarium’s executive director. “And in keeping with the green theme, we’ve worked with Waters Catering to maintain a 150-mile radius of local, sustainable produce and animals.” In deference to the assorted marine creatures who reside at the aquarium, no fish or seafood was served at the environmentally-sound shindig. Fine substitutions included an assortment of passed hors d’oeuvres of crispy spring rolls stuffed with Suzie’s Organic Farm rainbow carrots, bean sprouts, and blue Scotch kale with a spicy pluot dipping sauce; organic pumpkin seed hummus cones;
Water’s Grilled Confetti Salad A colorful selection of preferably local, organic summer vegetables: • 1 small eggplant, peeled, if desired • 2 medium zucchini • 2 medium yellow zucchini (squash) • 1 Fennel bulb • 1 of each small red and orange bell peppers • 2 garlic cloves, minced and blended with 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil • Sea salt and cracked black pepper Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Slice eggplant and zucchinis in ¼-inch thick cubes, and slice peppers in half and deseed. Core and separate fennel into pieces. Brush vegetables with garlic oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast in the oven on a parchment-lined cookie sheet until tender. Cut the peppers and fennel in uniform squares. Add desired amount of salad dressing (below) just to moisten and flavor. Toss and chill.
White Balsamic Vinaigrette
• 3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar • 1 shallot • 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar • 1 cup olive oil • 1 tablespoon orange marmalade • Salt and pepper • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard • 4 basil leaves Method: Puree ingredients in a blender or food processor. smoked bacon croquettes, a puree of Fibonacci’s Organic Garden heirloom potatoes, and natural Brandt beef hanger steak shish kabobs. The play stations were rivaled only by the enticing food stations. For the vegetarians: A plate of handcrafted tortelli-
ni filled with Rey River Farms sweet white summer corn and housemade ricotta topped with smoked tomato coulis, and a grilled and chilled veggie salad with fennel and citrus vinaigrette. For the pollitarians: Nathan Rakov’s rosemary brine chicken breast with farmers
J
market artichokes, crispy kale chips and heirloom tomatoes on a grilled polenta square. For die-hard carnivores: Braised short ribs with demi-glace and crisped shallot rings, paired with roasted garlic, and Meyer lemonzested spuds. For dessert: A seasonal strawberry rhubarb crumble bar and salted caramel brownie bites; to wash it down nicely, a local smallbatch artisan roaster coffee. Consistent with the green spirit of the event, the food was served on white porcelain, with sterling service and crystal and glassware. Elegant and sustainable … especially if I don’t have to do the dishes! Finally, I harvested my power of moxie to obtain the recipe for the grilled and chilled veggie salad from the kitchens of Waters. Serve with your favorite chicken, lamb or fish (allowed at home), or eat it straight up for a light green lunch.

Lux Art Institute announces next year’s residents By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Lux Art Institute in Encinitas isn’t an ordinary museum. You don’t just see finished works of art here; you get to see the artistic process firsthand. Every year, Lux invites five artists to its hillside studio to spend a month-long residency creating a new work. The artists themselves are on display, available to chat with visitors. Currently on exhibit is a set of haunting carved and painted figures by South African sculptor Claudette Schreuders. Her residency ended June 18, but her works will be shown through July 30. Lux’s fifth season begins Sept. 8 with New York installation artist Ann Agee. She’ll show her flair for converting domestic subjects into art by creating her own wallpaper, a large-scale drawing of a London breakfast room. Following in November will be another New Yorker, Emilio Perez, whose swirling paintings, in layers of acrylic and latex, combine freewheeling energy with a sense

In January, Lux will introduce a young Korean sculptor, Lila Jang, whose fantasy furniture looks like something out of “Alice in Wonderland.” An interesting detail: Though educated in Paris, with several European shows to her credit, she doesn’t speak English and has never been to this country. She’ll have an interpreter here, but if you can parler francais (or Korean!), so much the better. March brings another sculptor, Gwynn Murrill, whose signature works are elegant animal figures in wood, marble and bronze.

‘Portrait of Ann,’ by Brett Bigbee, who will close Lux’s fifth season next July. Courtesy
At Lux, she’ll show her skill with a more Degas-ian subject: Ballerinas. At the end of May, the season’s big finish will feature Brett Bisbee, a painter from Portland, Maine, whose ethereal portraits of his wife and children recall the old Renaissance masters. This meticulous artist, who rarely leaves Maine and often takes years to finish a painting, will use his weeks at Lux to create a small, but undoubtedly luminous, por-
trait of his young son. Lux begins its new season with plans for a grand expansion, but founding director Reesey Shaw (a longtime La Jollan), says construction won’t interfere with the artists: Their residence, and the viewers’ experience, will be undisturbed. “You can come here and watch the creative process,” she said. “You see art being made. Our mission is not just sharing artists with the public, but modeling creativity.”

‘Five Course Love’ is sexy, sensational romp about romance
Let’s Review
By diana Saenger
M
ake mine “Five Course Love,” the whole order, please, for the most fun I’ve had at the theater this year. From the moment the lights go up on the set of North Coast Repertory Theatre’s zany romantic comedy, there’s a feeling this San Diego premiere will be a good show. Kevin B. McGlynn as Matt, just one of the five characters he will play, sits in his car trying to get through traffic to a restaurant for a blind date. Moments later at Dean’s Bar-B-Que joint, Dean (Omri Schein) a pint-sized waiter in cowboy chaps and hat, informs Matt through song that his date is at the bar waiting and is hot, hot, hot. Matt, who professes his companion-less life through the song “A Very Single Man,” suddenly has hope. As cute and sexy Barbie/

Kristen Mengelkoch as Barbie, one of the five outrageously wonderful characters she portrays in ‘Five Course Love.’ PHOTOS BY AArOn rumleY Rosebud (Kristen Mengelkoch) whips her bodily charms around close to Matt, he’s delirious with delight. But moments later, when Dean confesses Barbie is not his blind date, Matt is again a “very single man.” These three actors take the audience through four more “love” stories playing a host of characters inspired by the quirky themes of five restaurants. Each “act” centers on romance — who will fall for whom? who will win the gal? and who will stay out of danger? I’ve never heard so much laughter roaring from an audience throughout an entire play. The trio’s sexually suggestive antics are pure vaudeville genius. Schein takes on several personas as Dean, Carlo,
i e g o
S
Heimlich and Ernesto. Small in size, Schein’s physique only accentuates his superb accent as Carlo, the waiter in an Italian restaurant where he’s a witness to an affair between a mobster’s gal and another mobster. “Will Nicky whack Gino or will he whack me?” he sings. As Heimlich, a German waiter enthralled with Gretchen and Klaus, the laughter over his frolics never stops. Mengelkoch is astonishing in her roles. Whether the trouble-making Sophia about to be whacked by Nicky, the femme fatale at the Speiseplatz, or the horse-riding senorita Rosalinda, her accents, her songs — from operatic to silly — and each character in between, are all exceptional.
Kevin B. Mcglynn, Omri Schein and Kristen Mengelkoch raise the roof with laughs in scene three, set in the der Schlumpfwinkel Speiseplatz restaurant. The tall and winsome McGlynn adds yet another rich and amusing element to the cast of characters. Whipping his cape around and vying for Rosalinda’s love as Guillermo, or swooning into the Starlite Diner as the Elvisclone Clutch to find his one true love, he rounds out this
Cosmetic
immensely talented cast perfectly. Gregg Coffin’s book, music and lyrics are brilliant; Rick Simas’ direction is spot on; and the NCRT design team’s quick simple, set changes parody each eatery’s eccentricities. Don’t miss this one.

Globe’s ‘Engaging Shaw’ celebrates snaring a confirmed bachelor By Diana Saenger John Morogiello’s West Coast premiere of “Engaging Shaw” mixes a bit of historical fact with a fictional romance for a delightful look at the marriage of Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw. The East Coast production in New York last year drew raves from critics. Henry Wishcamper returns to the Old Globe to direct its production, opening on July 29. Morogiello’s resume includes “Irish Authors Held Hostage,” “Men and Parts,” “Stonewall’s Playwright Bust,” “GiJohn anni SchicMorogiello chi,” and his new play “Blame It on Beckett,” which will premiere Off Broadway at Abingdon Theatre Company this October. Morogiello said he became interested in doing something about GBS when he was asked to write a study guide for a Shaw play at the Huntington Theatre
If you go ■ What: ‘Engaging Shaw’ ■ When: Matinees, evenings July 29-Aug. 4 ■ Where: Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, 1363 Old Globe Way, Balboa Park ■ Tickets: $29-$67 ■ Box Office: (619) 23-GLOBE ■ Website: TheOldGlobe.org Company in Boston. “I had to read Shaw’s biography, and when I read the part where he got married, I could not stop laughing,” Morogiello said. “It was funny the way he kept fighting it and fighting it, and eventually, she wore him down so all he could do was marry her.” It all went something like this … Wealthy heiress Charlotte Payne-Townshend has her sights on Shaw, a confirmed bachelor, philanderer and rumored to be unroman-
tic as well. When Charlotte and Shaw become acquainted with Sidney and Beatrice Webb, Charlotte finds new ways to pursue her goal. Writing his play with the same structure of Shaw’s plays, Morogiello said he knew he would have only four characters telling his story. “Shaw, and his best friends Sidney and Beatrice Webb, are based on real people,” he said. “I used their letters to help me get their voices and who they were. I had to create all of Charlotte, as her estate wouldn’t cooperate with me, so she’s totally made up.” The Webbs, Morogiello explained, were founders of the Fabian Society in England. It was a socialist organization based on a democratic process. “When I came across an essay that Sidney Webb wrote on how to get the world to accept socialism, I realized that his idea was the exact same tactic Charlotte used to get Shaw to marry her. I think the story works well. “When The International Shaw Society saw it in New
York, a member said it was the best Shaw play he’d seen in 20 years and he (Shaw) didn’t even write it!” Morogiello said he’s excited to work with director Wishcamper (“The Mystery of Irma Vep,” “Spirit Control,” “Graceland,” “Animal Crackers,” “Talking Pictures”) and thinks his casting is terrific. Rod Brogan plays Shaw. He received his M.F.A. from The Old Globe/University of San Diego Graduate Theatre Program and has appeared on Broadway in “Mauritius,” the National Tour of “Doubt,” and Off Broadway in “Treasure Island.” Angela Pierce portrays Charlotte. Her Broadway credits include “The Norman Conquests,” “Heartbreak House,” “A Streetcar Named Desire.” “Rod is doing a great job in giving us a sense of what Shaw was really like,” Morogiello said. “Rod and Angela have great chemistry together. She’s extraordinarily sensitive and very vulnerable and great at showing the growth of her character. Michael Warner (“Missed Con-
rod Brogan (george Bernard Shaw) and angela Pierce (Charlotte Payne-Townshend) star in ‘engaging Shaw’ at The Old globe Theatre. Sandy Huffaker
nections”) and Natalie Gold (“Twelfth Night”) are married in real life and wonderful as the Webbs. It’s really
fun to watch them together. Michael and Natalie are the Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward of my play.”

La Jolla business hosts launch party for Wish Upon A Wedding By Liz Schneider From the elaborate decorations to the acoustic guitar music in the air, the June 28 launch party for the San Diego chapter of Wish Upon A Wedding at the Ocean Travel and Business Center in La Jolla, had all the makings of a fairy-tale event. For those in attendance, however, the evening was all business. The organization, which grants weddings to people who are terminally ill or have other life-altering circumstances, was both celebrating the start of its San Diego chapter as well as recruiting “wish granters,” the wedding-industry professionals whose donations of goods and services allow the celebrations to take place. “This is a wonderful foundation, and it’s representative of what all of us San Diego vendors want to do, which is give back to people who can’t afford the wedding of their dreams,” said Jesika Leszewski, of Indulge catering. “It’s just awesome that all these vendors are able to give back to people who are less fortunate.” Indulge was one of many

There were just all these people who I wanted to help.”
A raffle engaged guests with prizes from the participating vendors whose generosity will make weddings possible for those with special needs. COURTESY PHOTOS The generosity Guthrie experienced from the wedding industry – she gathered more than 40 vendors who were willing to contribute to the contest – inspired her, and Wish Upon A Wedding began to come together. As word spread about the unique organization, wedding professionals from across the country and around the world expressed interest in starting chapters. “We have inquiries coming in from Malaysia to the UK,” she said. “We’re expanding into Canada next year, and we’re trying to go

international in the next five years.” But while the organization has plans to spread across the globe, it’s also excited about the future of the 21 chapters already in existence. Amy Harrick, president of the San Diego chapter and the publisher/ editor-in-chief of Ceremony magazine, says she is eager to bring this one-of-a-kind organization to San Diego. “I went to the Orange County/Los Angeles Wish Upon A Wedding gala, and I decided this was the charity that I wanted to help out,” she said. “Through knowing a lot of the wedding vendors in San Diego, I thought I would be able to get a lot of people to donate.” And with scores of ven-
Samples of wedding cakes and wedding cupcakes each had their appeal at dessert time. dors already committed to participating, it looks like San Diegans’ wishes will be coming true in no time. “We’re industry people –
we can whip up a wedding next week,” Leszewski said with a laugh. “So I’d say things will probably start happening quite quickly.”

Works in museum exhibit offer a history of Spanish art From museum reports With 64 oil paintings, sculptures, and drawings from more than 25 legendary artists, The San Diego Museum of Art presents, “From El Greco to Dalí: The Great Spanish Masters from the Pérez Simón Collection,” on view to Nov. 6. The exclusive exhibition presents an overview of the progression of art in Spain over the last 500 years. n Through the works of El Greco, José de Ribera and Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, visitors are taken to the heart of the various faces of Catholic Reformation art in the 16th to 18th centuries. n Goya and Sanchez Coello counter this religious art with beautiful, and sensitive, court portraits of Spanish Monarchs, balancing the portrayal of power with realistic representations. n Ten works by Joaquin Sorolla, the undisputed master of scenes portraying simple pleasures in vivid, bright, strong canvasses, highlight the feeling of national identity that characterizes Spanish art of the

Over a period of about 10 years, his passion for art and taste for culture led him to acquire a magnificent collection of
paintings, sculptures, drawings, etchings, decorative objets d’art and manuscripts together with a library of more than 15,000 books. “I have built up a personal world that reflects what defines me and excites me,” said Pérez Simón. “Anyone who, like me, does not have that wonderful gift of creating beauty through art, can console themselves by admiring works of art and enjoying the process of falling in love with them.”

If you are selling a home or estate in La Jolla, read this... Prime Real Estate in La Jolla is a “Bargain” for Foreign Investors. The question is, do you or your agent know how to reach them effectively?
Foreign investors have both the money and desire to purchase La Jolla real estate. And they do. The question is, how do you attract their interest? How do you showcase your home or estate? The simple answer is, you target them where they get their news or information. And since they don’t live in the local area or read local newspapers, investors look at hyper-local websites like www. lajollalight.com searching for available properties. For example, the site attracts people from 115 countries and over a 30-day period in March, the site generated 32,826 visits from countries worldwide. It’s interesting to note that the sites largest number of daily

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.

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.

Charity league chapter wins program award The San Dieguito Chapter of the National Charity League, Inc. (NCL) won the mother-daughter organization’s 2011 Innovative Program Award, presented during NCL’s recent annual meeting in Las Vegas, attended by some 600 members. The chapter was honored for initiating a program that puts consistent focus on meaningful leadership opportunities for Ticktockers, girls in grades 7-12. Chapter president Nancy Gackstetter, said the chapter believes a demonstration of leadership is highly relevant, given the competitive world of college applications, not to mention the tremendous personal benefits it provides to those who reach for it. Ticktockers create written program proposals that define their project goals, the steps they must follow to make it happen, and includes a list of contacts, supplies, and funds needed, and an estimated timeline. Ticktockers present their concepts to the chapter leadership coordinator who, depending on scope of the project, either approves it or confers with the board for approval. In just the first year of the program, the Chapter completed 11 projects, has five projects in mid-stream and has received three recently proposed projects.
