11 Days ’Til School Starts

New faces, new lesson plans to greet students

BY ASHLEY MACKIN Schools across San Diego Unified School District — including La Jolla’s public schools — will start a week earlier than usual this year, welcoming students on Monday, Aug. 29. But that’s not all that’s new for La Jolla Elementary, Bird Rock Elementary, Torrey Pines Elementary, Muirlands Middle and La Jolla High schools, each is bringing something novel to their campuses this year, including new faculty and staff, building improvements and/or the roll out of

Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). As part of a national shift in science education, the Next Generation standards are being rolled out over the next few years to change America’s public schools’ science curriculum. Using “strands” of different science emphases, NGSS are aimed at giving all students a science education that prepares them for college and career. Starting in 2016, K-5 schools will integrate ASHLEY MACKIN the Earth Sciences strand, followed New Muirlands Middle School teachers Frances Disney, Matthew Hartje and by the Physical Sciences strand in SEE SCHOOLS, A11 Amy Thomas arrive on campus Aug. 15 to start setting up their classrooms.

LA JOLLA LIGHT - AUGUST 18, 2016 - PAGE A3

FROM SWIMMING RECORD, A1 record back in 2013 for completing the swim going the other way — from Catalina to mainland (10 hours, 57 minutes) — Swell Guys swim club captain Steve Cross said the 23-and-a-half nautical-mile adventure was anything but easy. “The currents in the Channel going toward the mainland are a little more forgiving, so we were able to set that record no problem,” he said. But heading towards Catalina, the swim was marked with colder-than-expected water temperatures, winds and swells, and a capsized kayak, he reported. Bill Crane was the first swimmer in the excursion, and he dove in a little after 9 p.m. (night swimming lends itself to calmer waters), and was instantly awakened by the cold water. “As La Jolla Cove swimmers, we’re spoiled with 74-degree waters, so to just jump into 64-degree water was kind of an adrenaline rush,” he said. Noting that he uses swimming as a form of exercise following two partial knee replacements and a hip surgery, Crane said he was proud to be the first in the water. Added Cross, “It is an act of faith and commitment to jump off a perfectly good boat into 64-degree water in pitch black night.” Pettigrew swam the second leg, and completed more during his hour-long turn than anyone else – 1.7 nautical miles. But as a result, his recovery period on the boat was slow, as he was shaking for quite some time after he got out of the water. For third swimmer Henry, who had to center himself after high swells rocked the boat the whole night, the water temperature

While fourth swimmer Dockstader was not available to share his experience, fifth swimmer Cross said he got a visual reprieve when phosphorescent marine life appeared in the water. “It was like swimming with glowing boxing gloves on,” he said. “All these little floating diamonds in front of my

goggles.” And by that time, winds had picked up to the point that Cross said it was more pleasant to be in the water than in the boat! Still “rocking” days after the swim, sixth swimmer Joseph (the oldest participant at 79) faced the most time-consuming obstacle – being separated from the observation kayak. “The kayak needs to stay near you at all times, but I got separated from the kayakers about five times. Each time that happens, I had to stop and yell so the kayaker could find me. But despite all that, I was told I did 1.3 nautical miles, if so, I am very proud of that,” he said. When he completed his turn, Joseph had two questions: How did I do? Whose distance did I beat? Repeating the rotation, the men said they were more prepared for the second half, albeit tired from the first round, given they knew the conditions they were up against. But the sea provided one last unexpected challenge: in the 13th hour, one of the observation kayaks capsized twice, leaving Pettigrew to go it alone.

As the trek came to end, the Swell Guys said they felt like celebrities as they climbed onto the sand at Doctor’s Cove. “When we made our way to the beach, people had crowded there and were cheering and clapping for us, which was quite a thrill,” Cross said. Appreciative of the acclaim, but exhausted, Crane added that he slept for 11 hours that night and that he’s still sore. Looking back, Cross said, “We’ll remember our record going from Catalina, but in the long run, I think we’ll all remember this one more because conditions tested us so severely. Someone is going to come along and beat this record some day, but they will have had better conditions than we had. And while I’m very proud of the team, I’m especially proud that we laughed and enjoyed the whole experience, and everyone had such a positive attitude through it all; it really pushed us through.” Of the added difficulty of completing the feat as septuagenarians, Cross said, “You’re defined by your goals and the things you have in front of you, not your age.”

Board, so they have eyes on this,” Benton said. He added there is an archaeologist on site at all times in case anything of interest is unearthed in the process. According to Planning Commission documents, the units would be accessed from Coast Boulevard via three proposed 12-foot wide driveways. A total of 12 onsite parking spaces are proposed. Other project components include the construction of four-foot wide, vertical public staircase from Prospect Street to Coast Boulevard, between the Gables and Jack O’ Lantern units. This public access is a requirement of a state-issued Coastal Development Permit special condition, and is consistent with the community plan recommendation for a public access-way through the site. Project retaining walls that vary in height from two to 10 feet are proposed along only a portion of the Coast Boulevard frontage.

A history of development

“The Green Dragon Colony was original developed by Anna Held (later Anna Held Heinrich), a German woman who came to America in the late 19th century. She came to La Jolla in 1894, and began buying property and building the cottages that made up the Colony,” said La Jolla Historical Society archivist Michael Mishler. He explained that the cottages became a haven for artists and musicians, and when they were not being rented, Bohemian parties were held there. By the 1920s, the parties became more “high society” events. However, as time went on, the cottages were redeveloped and the property was bought and sold a few times. “If they weren’t

Author Patricia Schaelchilin’s “La Jolla: The Story of a Community 1887-1987” chronicles a portion of the history of the site. Josephine Seaman purchased the Colony in 1926, and the cottages were left in

their original state until 1944, when they were bought by Jack and Alice Mosher. “The buildings (except for four cottages left standing) were in-filled for commercial use over a 10-year period as a beautifully designed collection of shops …” Schaelchilin writes. “They remained in that state until

himself lucky to be a lifeguard at the same beach where he learned how to swim and surf. “I grew up coming to this beach,” he explained, “and when I was little, my mom and dad would drive me down on their bikes and I’d jump in the shore break and play around.” Among his tattoos he counts his dogs, the initials of family members and the Cat in the Hat. “I’m a big fan of Dr. Seuss,” Orloff confessed.

someone jumps in the water, you turn your back away for one second and they are already getting sucked out far in the ocean. You have to trust and rely on the other guys on the beach, that they are seeing it, and that you guys are communicating well with each other.”

What do you like the most about being a lifeguard?

“I always wanted to help people, and out of all the jobs I’ve ever done, I think this one has that aspect the most. We’re constantly interacting with the public; there’s never a day when we are not helping someone who got injured or making water rescues.”

What activites do you like doing in the ocean besides surfing? “I like to swim, spear-fish and I also really enjoy bodysurfing — especially during the winter time. Sometimes the surfing crowds get really heavy, and if I want a break from that I’ll go find the pocket beach or a random reef and bodysurf it. It kind of changes things up and it’s really exciting.”

How do you handle the surf at WindanSea being one of the highest in the county?

“Most of the surfers are very experienced, but sometimes people don’t know, they’ll see surfers out, and it will be their first or second time surfing and they will paddle out and will instantly be in a dangerous situation. Usually it’s easy to pick out, but sometimes even an experienced surfer needs your help. It’s humbling, I’ve needed help, I’ve been rescued before, too, by a former water polo teammate, so I know that when it comes to the ocean, you have to check your ego at the door and it’s a humbling place sometimes.”

What rescues stick out the most for you?

“Last summer we had one where a kid got

This lifeguard lives in La Jolla above The Cove, in a house he shares with his brother and some friends. sucked out in a really strong rip current and he didn’t have much swimming experience, and he was going underwater, and I, along with other lifeguards, were able to grab him and put him on the jet ski and save him before he drowned. That was a really intense experience. When we got to the beach, he and I were equally as shaken up. I felt my heart pumping and my hands were shaking. I was so nervous that he wasn’t going to make it. We were both equally ecstatic once we got back on the beach.”

What are your favorite things about La Jolla?

“My favorite things about La Jolla are the beautiful beaches; the terrain is very diverse, so instead of big long strands of beach, you have pocket beaches and rocky areas. Especially in this area, because it sticks out

on the coast and is full of reefs, we generally have larger surf, so the surf breaks here are world-class as compared to a lot of other areas in San Diego. I’m very fortunate to have grown up here surfing these spots.”

How hard is lifeguarding at a beach with no towers, like WindanSea?

“Here at The Shack, we always have a couple people on staff and then, based on crowds and conditions, we switch patrol or set up satellite stations along the beach. It’s different than most beaches with set towers and areas. For us, we set out wherever the crowds are. We communicate by radio or hand signals. At WindanSea things happen really fast, so we have to be on alert and we all have to make sure we are communicating really well with each other. … Sometimes

Got a safety tip for beachgoers? At WindanSea, before you surf out here, make sure you are experienced enough to handle the diverse terrain, and not put yourself in a position where you can get injured by another surfer or the reef or the waves. Because it’s such a beautiful beach, it’s so appealing to paddle out. If you are a swimmer, the places to avoid would be the rocky areas, because the rip currents feed around the rocks.

What is your favorite beach in La Jolla?

“I would have to say all of them. I change it up. I go to the beaches from Bird Rock all the way to Black’s Beach, and they all have their strengths, they are all beautiful in their own way.” ■ ON THE WEB: To read about other La Jolla lifeguards in this La Jolla Light series, visit bit.ly/knowyourlifeguards or search for “Know Your Lifeguards” at lajollalight.com

Nobel Prize winner’s home dismantled while awaiting historical designation BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN Maria Goeppert-Mayer (in 1963) and Marie Curie (in 1903) are the only women to ever win a Nobel Prize in Physics. Goeppert-Mayer came to live in La Jolla in the 1960s to work at UC San Diego, and won the award for her discoveries concerning nuclear shell structure. She lived at 2345 Via Siena in a California ranch-style home. The city’s Historical Resources Board (HRB) will review a request to designate Goeppert-Mayer’s house a historical resource 1 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 25 at a location to be determined. Meanwhile, construction is underway on the property to the dismay of Diane Kane, chair of the La Jolla Historical Society (LJHS) preservation committee. “The house is half in the dumpster,” she told La Jolla Light. “The east front roof and gable are deconstructed and that whole wing of the house has been stripped … you can see right through the house.” A code enforcement case was opened on March 16 from a citizen’s complaint of “demolition without permits on a possible historic site.” When the Light visited, there were no construction workers, though construction seemed to have resumed. The property was fenced off and an outdoor portable toilet could be seen. The Goepper-Mayer’s house came under LJHS radar in March via a 45-year review, the process properties 45 years or older undergo when applying for a construction permit. Planning groups and preservation non-profits, such as LJHS or Save Our

Both LJHS and SOHO filed on behalf of the Goeppert-Mayer residence. If a structure is designated historical, all changes to it must be compliant with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Treatment of Historic Properties and need to be reviewed by city staff. Applicants, usually the property owners, provide a preliminary report from a consultant hired from a pre-approved list of candidates. In this case,

After Maria Goeppert-Mayer’s death in 1972, her husband married Margaret Griffin-Mayer. When he died, Margaret owned the house and lived there with family members. The last owner listed, Louis W. Perry, died in 2015 and in December of that year the property was sold to Sonoca Corporation, a residential redevelopment company. (Source: Research Report for the 2345 Via Siena Residence, prepared by Scott A. Moomjian.)

the review by Scott A. Moomjian denied the house’s historical character. “The property does not derive any measure of historical significance as associated with Dr. Maria Goeppert-Mayer,” the review reads. The main argument was that the research, which merited Goeppert-Mayer a Nobel Prize, was done in Chicago before she moved to La Jolla, and although she received the award while living in the property, it was not deserving of historical recognition. After accessing the preliminary report, SOHO sent a letter to the city dated July 1

requesting additional information to “determine the level of impact and influence the female professor had on the development of her two fields of research, physics and chemistry, specifically with regard to the female gender in these fields of study.” Amie Hayes, SOHO historical resources specialist, highlighted the overall importance of Goeppert-Mayer’s contributions as a woman in physics. “Females need to equally contribute to the narrative of the country, and Professor SEE HOME DISMANTLED, A26

2017 and Life Sciences strand in 2018. La Jolla’s schools are following suit.

La Jolla Elementary School

Principal Donna Tripi said as part of the school’s effort to integrate Next Generation Science Standards, the school will add more engineering aspects to its curriculum. “This is the first year of three-year phase-in,” Tripi said. “Plus, we’re adding robotics enrichment programs in Grades 3-5.” Using a $10,000 grant from the Microbials Discovery Team located at the Monsanto San Diego Facility, which they received in July, the Friends of La Jolla Elementary purchased robots and building materials to better engage students in engineering. (See story, B5.) Further, LJES will adjust its “character strengths” programming. “We’re helping kids understand what their strengths are and teaching them to advocate for themselves to become more resilient students,” Tripi said. The school will focus on the strengths that lead to academic success and about 20 others, including humor, integrity, curiosity, kindness, social intelligence and gratitude. “Instead of doing a 30-minute block once a week (like we’ve done in previous years), we will now focus on a few strengths per month,” she said. “Our teachers are developing lessons that incorporate character strength programming and how to see it, how to nurture it, and get the students to ask themselves ‘if I don’t have it, how do I bring it out?’ ”

For its roll-out of NGSS, Torrey Pines Elementary School (TPES) will use the its campus garden. Principal Sarah Ott explained, “We got a new greenhouse that is going in as we speak, and we’re looking at using it with our garden to support the NGSS implementation. Hopefully, with the two, we can embark on new science experiments, like soil studies, as part of the Earth Sciences component.” She added that the school has already implemented a farm-to-table program, where produce like lettuce is grown in

the school garden and served in the cafeteria. “The kids love it,” she said. TPES will also expand its music program, which has only been a choral group. “Once a week, students will have the option of learning about different types of dance and/or theater,” Ott said. “The dance teacher wants to teach hip hop, jazz and more. The theater instructor will present details on her program in the coming weeks. Toward the end of the year, the students will perform what they’ve learned.” Adding to school spirit and pride, when TPES students return to campus, they will have a mascot: the red tailed hawk. “We previously just had a school symbol, the Torrey Pine,” Ott explained. “But at the end of last year, the governance team voted to have a mascot. We researched what was unique to this area and decided on the hawk. Go hawks!”

Bird Rock Elementary School

After a “rocky year” of three temporary principals following the departure of Sally Viavada in mid-2015, Bird Rock Elementary School (BRES) welcomes new principal Amanda Hale. With 10 years’ experience as a principal, Hale has worked in the Fullerton and Anaheim City school districts. She obtained a bachelor’s degree from the University of Redlands, master’s degree from Claremont Graduate University and Doctorate of Education from the University of Southern California. Her administrative credential is from Claremont Graduate University. One of her first acts as principal will be to assist teachers in their efforts to have BRES identified as a Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM) school, starting with the hiring of science teacher Roger Ashworth. “He will help teachers take our science lessons and rewrite them … enriching them in a STEAM direction. We’ve always had a strong science program … the new programming will be more integrated, in that science will be woven through other subjects like literacy and PE,” explained teacher Lorene LaCava. “It’s very exciting.” Hale added, via e-mail, “We want to cultivate our children’s intellectual curiosity, cooperative learning, ability to express SEE SCHOOLS, A12

FROM SCHOOLS, A11 their new learnings creatively, and allow our children to thrive in the 21st century. … We recognize how technology has impacted the way we communicate, collaborate and provides our children the freedom to think outside the box. We will be actively seeking community partnerships to add to the richness of our learning community.”

Muirlands Middle School

Due to an increase in students and some transferred teachers, Muirlands Middle School (MMS) brought on five teachers who will start this year. “These are mostly first-time teachers, some are veterans, but all are enthusiastic, energetic and prepared to collaborate and work hard,” said Principal Harlan Klein. “They’re asking how things are done and why things are done, and I’m looking forward to supporting their success, which will in turn supports the success of our students.” Klein said well ahead of the reporting date, these teachers have come in to set up their classrooms and draft curriculum, showing their enthusiasm for the job. Teaching eighth-grade GATE (Gifted And Talented Education) Cluster English and academic language development for seventh and eighth grade, Jennifer Littig comes to Muirlands from Atlanta, Georgia. Transferring from San Diego High School, Amy Thomas will teach seventh- and eighth-grade GATE Cluster English. Concurrent to teaching sixth- and eighth-grade GATE Cluster English, Frances Disney is also pursuing her doctorate in educational leadership at UC San Diego. Matthey Hartje will teach eighth-grade Common Core math. Hartje recently graduated from San Diego State University. Also operating his first classroom, Gene Murray will teach seventh-grade Common Core math. He has had several long-term assignments at schools like Challenger Middle School. Klein said the classroom placement was strategic, with new teachers next to veterans instructing the same content areas. There are also some beautification projects underway at MMS. “With the support of the Foundation and some

discretionary funds, we’re improving the Quad area, to put in some new concrete and new tables and umbrellas, so it’s more like a food court or a bistro,” Klein said. “We wanted to provide a nice area for students to congregate, and this is a tremendous improvement.”

La Jolla High School

When the 2016 school year kicks off at La Jolla High, the 27 Vikings sports teams will have a new athletic complex. After just over a year of construction, the $12 million athletic complex includes a more accessible stadium, home and visitor plazas, entry gates, bleachers, a press box, concession buildings, restrooms, weight rooms and tennis plaza. Principal Chuck Podhorsky said there will be a ribbon-cutting when the complex is complete, at a date to be announced. Other project additions include replacement of the synthetic turf field; resurfacing the running track, which will reportedly extend the life of the track by another six to eight years at a cost of $169,863; and construction of a new boys locker room and additional storage space. The safety and long-term effects of synthetic turf has drawn the ire of some parents, but the reported benefits include reducing overall maintenance compared to a natural grass field; less down time for the field due to the elimination of establishment periods typical of a natural turf field; and better drainage capabilities than a natural turf field, reducing the need to reschedule games/events due to poor field conditions after a heavy rain event. In addition to the athletic complex, eight new Viking teachers join the crew to replace three who retired last year, and one who moved to another school. Departing teachers include Sharon Collins (English), Greg Volger (computer technology), Elsa Santana (English) and Christine Johnson (special education). Starting at La Jolla High this year are: math teachers Paul Byrne (a transfer from Muirlands Middle School) and Hanna Gordon; English teachers Jamie Lynne Sanders and Samuel Cisneros (another transfer from Muirlands Middle School); drama teacher Stacey Allen; and special education instructors Tyler Gray, Deborah Williams and Michael Ulrich.

First Foundation has its roots in wealth management

COURTESY

First Foundation CEO Scott F. Kavanaugh

BY DAVID L. CODDON Like the financial institution of which he is chief executive officer, Scott F. Kavanaugh is constantly on the move. His Irvine-based First Foundation Inc., which has had a San Diego office on Executive Drive since 2011, has expanded from Southern California (seven branches) east into Las Vegas and west to Hawaii. Meanwhile, Kavanaugh says “My absolute favorite thing to do is to get in the car or get on a plane and go see and work with our bankers and investment management teams to meet with clients. So I probably travel more than the typical CEO.” Today, the 26-year-old First Foundation (it began as an investment advisory practice in 1990) is a multi-service institution that provides a variety of services. “I would call us a wealth management firm with basically a lot of different tools for people, from investment management to trust services, property, casualty and life insurance, construction lending and financial planning,” said Kavanaugh, speaking by phone from his office in Irvine. “We have

a lot of resources that we can bring to somebody.” The firm includes First Foundation Bank, which opened in 2007, and First Foundation Advisors, which offers such services as estate planning and philanthropic strategizing as well as wealth management consultation. “We’ve got the ability to bring a lot of resources to the table,” said Kavanaugh, “and quite honestly, it’s my belief that with a lot of the larger firms sometimes the left hand doesn’t necessarily talk to the right hand as well as our firm does.” There are 320 employees throughout First Foundation, 14 in the San Diego office. A key part of the company’s mission is to give clients personal attention. “It starts with whatever the need of the client is,” explained Kavanaugh. “Some clients come in because they need help with trust services, some because they need help on a loan or with investment management. We identify the issues and then work forward to figure out all the areas we can be helpful in and discuss that with the client. Then we bring in added professionals (such as financial

planners) as the case may be. “We’re really good at working as a team to bring together the resources that a client needs and doing it with a community feel.” Like all good CEO’s, Kavanaugh understands the big picture. He’s overseen First Foundation during difficult times but also perceives the promise of the future. “We were very much actively lending in the worst of economic times, which was 2008, 2009 and 2010,” Kavanaugh recalled. “We were afforded the opportunity to help a lot of people when a lot of other banks were not lending as much or doing as well. “I’m very hopeful about California and in particular San Diego and Orange County. I see continued growth and stability, and San Diego is very much a strong part of where we believe the growth is going to come from.” ■ First Foundation, 4510 Executive Drive, Suite 150, San Diego.

Rendering of what the Fill It With Art (FIWA) program could provide for La Jolla’s empty storefront windows.

COURTESY PHOTOS

Let’s Fill ’Em Up!

Village Merchants consider art installations for vacant storefronts BY ASHLEY MACKIN The La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA) is considering a new way to fill the unattractive, unoccupied storefronts in town. As a temporary aesthetic improvement, while awaiting new businesses to move in, LJVMA may implement the Fill It With Art (FIWA) program. At its Aug. 10 meeting, LJVMA approved the formation of a sub-committee program to study FIWA and report back at a future meeting. When introducing the proposal, brand

marketing and art curation firm Plume21’s chief creative officer Thomas Lamprecht said the FIWA program would take advantage of “depressing” empty storefronts by posting eye-catching artistic installations in the spaces until the stores are rented. He said the program would benefit the Village aesthetic by providing public art rather than vacant windows, drawing attention to rentable spaces and solidifying La Jolla as a cultural destination. “We want to create something completely non-impactful to the spaces, walls or ceilings

with no impairment to real estate agents showing the vacant spaces. The installations could be easily placed and removed,” Lamprecht said. Using renderings, he showed the board hanging installations made from reusable materials that preserved the visibility of the space for those considering tenancy. He also said signage on the windows would indicate that the space is for rent, and how to contact the Realtor. “We feel by doing this, everyone wins. Real estate agents win, the Village will see a benefit, as well as visitors and artists,” he said.

www.valentehair.com

When it comes to choosing artists to create the works, Lamprecht said he could give priority and right-of-refusal to local galleries, then to students at area universities, then elsewhere. If working with students — a favorable option to several board members — the galleries would sponsor the student, similar to a residency. So if passersby want to know more about the artist, they would contact the sponsoring gallery. To avoid competition with existing art institutions, LJVMA president SEE VILLAGE MERCHANTS, A25

LA JOLLA NEWS NUGGETS

The Capeheart Dog Park pre-drought, with lush grass.

GoFundMe goal set and met to re-sod dog park A GoFundMe.com fundraising website was set up to replace the grass at Capeheart Dog Park on Soledad Mountain Road and within four days, the $2,500 goal was reached, and exceeded. Started by a concerned group of dog-owners, chiefly Ron McChesney, the effort aimed to replace the grass lost after city drought restrictions decreased the frequency of watering at the oft-used park. “There used to be grass, now it’s just lots of dust and lots of dirt,” he said. “We want to encourage the city to replace the sod, and we

agree to water it (paid for with private donations).” According to GoFundMe page, “The City of San Diego does not have the money available for the purchase of sod, but, will provide the labor and machines needed to prepare the area and install the sod, if The Friends of Capehart Dog Park can provide the sod.” The city has not committed in writing to replacing the grass or maintaining it, but a meeting has been scheduled to discuss it, at which point McChesney hopes for confirmation. “People care about this park and care about their dogs, so they wanted to do something. I hope the city sees that,” he said. More at gofundme.com/2j8nsvrp

Online petition started against DecoBike A change.org petition protesting DecoBike in La Jolla has been established, and already has 65 signatures. At the Aug. 10 La Jolla Village Merchants Association meeting, executive director Sheila Fortune explained, “A grand jury on July 27 decided that the City of San Diego needs to honor its commitment for bike kiosks (including) 26 or so in the beach communities of La Jolla, Pacific Beach and Mission Beach, so we started a change.org petition against bringing them.”

COURTESY PHOTOS

Arguing the issue is not with bike sharing, but the ad revenue generated by signage on the kiosks, Fortune said every advisory group in La Jolla opposed the stations when they were initially presented two years ago. “We thought it was a dead issue because it’s been two years since we’ve heard anything, but it is being discussed behind the scenes.” According to the grand jury report, DecoBike LLC, provided approximately $8 million in infrastructure investments in return for the ability to sell advertising on the bikes and kiosks. San Diego receives a commission on gross advertising and bike rental revenue. View or sign the petition at change.org and search “DecoBike.”

Researcher given $1 million to study prostate cancer, which he is battling A scientist at Sanford Burnham Prebys recently received $1 million to study prostate cancer, a disease he is fighting himself for the second time. The Epstein Family Foundation gift will support the lab of Nicholas Cosford, Ph.D., associate director of Translational Research at the Institute’s NCI-designated Cancer Center to study prostate cancer and pancreatic cancer. “Nick Cosford is one of our leading scientists investigating new approaches to treat patients with pancreatic and prostate cancers,” said Perry Nisen, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer of SBP. “This generous donation from The Epstein Family Foundation will help us realize our vision to translate fundamental research

into clinically meaningful benefit for patients.” Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer. There are no effective therapies and the five-year survival rate is only six percent. Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in U.S. men; 180,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year.

Let’s give new life to Village lanes and alleys After living several years bordering Bishops Lane, I agree with Cal Mann about the need to creatively use these lanes and alley spaces (from the Aug. 4 La Jolla Light article, “Activate the Alley!”).

They don’t have to quit when all’s lost. They can prolong the inevitable, waste time and energy, turn losing into an embarrassingly sore subject. But if they’re gracious, they tip over their king (or stop the clock) and shake hands with their opponent. That’s what Ray Ellis, candidate for the city of San Diego’s District 1 council seat, is doing. He’s tipping his king and extending his hand to Barbara Bry. In withdrawing almost three months before the November runoff, Ellis is demonstrating what I’d call good political sportsmanship. Ellis said he met with Bry on Aug. 11 and broke the news to her. The Democratic candidate outpolled Ellis by 15 points in the June primary and would have in all probability crushed him in the expanded Nov. 8 general election. Bry, as you’ll recall, reversed conventional wisdom when she came within an eyelash of winning the primary outright. Ellis finished a distant and disappointing second. I sat down with Ellis, whom I’ve known — and instinctively liked — for more than four years, starting with his unsuccessful campaign against incumbent Councilwoman Sherri Lightner.

C

As you’d expect, Ellis was subdued, rueful, resigned. He reminded me of a highly ranked tennis player who’d lost in an early round, still stunned by his opponent’s skill and his failure to counter. We began with the question of why he could not at least make it close in November. Ellis showed little interest in analyzing tactical X’s and O’s, negative vs. positive messaging, the wet handiwork of political consultants. “There are always things you might have improved,” was as far as he’d go. However, Ellis did want to drill into the forbidding District 1 “landscape,” which in his view made the candidacy of a self-described “moderate coastal Republican” an uphill march against the wind. Democratic registration in District 1 is going up, he said, Republican registration down. In the June primary, Democratic turnout exceeded GOP turnout by 13 percentage points, he said. (Four years ago, the Republican advantage was 4, a 17-point swing, he said.) While city races are theoretically non-partisan, they are color-coded by the major parties and the media. (Every news story about the District 1 race reported high up that it was “pivotal” to the partisan lean of the City Council.) To make matters worse for Republicans, the red tribe is going through a bloody uncivil war. The X — or better, the DT (for delirium tremens) — factor is the specter of Donald Trump

and his effect on the bottom of the ballot. Although Ellis despises Trump — “His values are not my values,” he said — and says he will not vote for the Republican nominee, it’s nearly impossible for a Republican in a Democratic-leaning district to insulate himself from the toxic seepage on the ballot. In addition to this structural political problem, Ellis conceded that in Bry he faced a formidable opponent, an unusually astute first-time candidate with, in Ellis’ estimation, “a strong background, a strong resume, very capable.” “I wish her the best of luck,” he said, adding that he planned to offer the new councilmember any help he could provide. In my view, what’s most to admire about the Ellis surrender is the message it sends to his supporters, the volunteers and donors who believed in him. Because he was soundly thumped in the primary — and the runoff promised to be worse — Ellis couldn’t raise money without using all his persuasive power to fleece his friends as if they were marks in a confidence game. A lesser man might have pretended there was indeed a path to victory, a nuclear strategy that would blow up Bry. Perhaps pull out all the stops on negative ads. “There’s quite enough of that,” Ellis told me, shaking his head. By quitting early, Ellis has performed a chivalric deed. He saves Bry time, energy and money. She can now concentrate on what she can do as a rookie councilwoman, not as a candidate. I asked Ellis, who’s only 59, if he would

ever run for elective office again. “No,” he said, clearly meaning it. He’s given elected politics his best shot, twice. He’s done with all that, he said. He’ll go back to doing what he’s done for years — volunteering for organizations with positive social missions. He’s guided, he says, by Malin Burnham’s well-known San Diego creed: “Community Before Self.” Ellis made lots of money in business and can afford to dedicate his life to public service. He likes living in Carmel Valley with wife Gina and 14-year-old son Jake. Somebody loses. Nobody died. Life goes on. I asked Ellis what non-elective job he would most love to tackle. At first he said he was interested in a range of social problems but, after a while, he said that, more than anything, he’d like to lead a regional effort to bring nonprofits, the business sector and government agencies together to fight homelessness. As homeless czars go, you could do a lot worse — and not much better — than Ray Ellis, a guy who lost two council elections but clearly hasn’t lost his heart to do good for San Diego. In my book of local political history, this surprise surrender will go down as a poignant footnote, a rare example of realism ennobled by character. — Logan Jenkins is a columnist at The San Diego Union-Tribune.

LA JOLLA CRIME & PUBLIC SAFETY NEWS

Woman raped, robbed at UTC apartment Police are investigating the rape of a woman Saturday in the University Town Center area of San Diego. The incident reportedly began at about 10:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 13 as the victim was walking through the parking structure of the Venetian Apartments, 3929 Nobel Drive, toward her residence when she noticed she was being

followed by a man she did not know. Lt. Paul Phillips of the San Diego Police Department said the suspect continued following her to her apartment, and as she unlocked her door, he knocked her to the ground, displayed a handgun and demanded money. The victim complied, but the suspect sexually assaulted her before fleeing. The suspect is described as a 25- to 30-year-old black man between 5 feet 9 and 5 feet 11 inches tall who weighs about 180 pounds and has a medium or athletic bid. He has short black hair and a short black beard and was wearing a gray

hooded sweatshirt, gray shorts with red stripes on the sides and black athletic shoes. He was also carrying a black backpack, according to police. Anyone with information about the suspect or the incident was urged to call the San Diego Police Department’s Sex Crimes Unit at (619) 531-2210. Tipsters who wish to remain anonymous, may call the San Diego County Crime Stoppers tip line at (888) 580-8477. — City News Service

FROM VILLAGE MERCHANTS, A18

In other LJVMA news:

Claude-Anthony Marengo suggested partnering with La Jolla galleries. “One idea is to give students a criteria, maybe by one of the gallery owners, for something that would enhance art that is already showing at one of the galleries. It would give viewers a chance to see the installation in a storefront, and then see the work that inspired it at (for example) Monarch Arredon Gallery,” he said. Although in support of the idea, board member and Monarch Arredon Contemporary Fine Art gallery owner Elsie Arrednodo said, “If we do go forward with this project, it must not be seen as competitive (to local art businesses). I would recommend that the work in the windows cannot be sold and the artist cannot be marketed at the site.” In favor of the idea to use gallery owners as conduits for learning more about the artist, she added, “A lot of galleries may have artists already that could create work for those spaces, or there could be artists that do not have gallery representation that could partner with us.” Lamprecht said Plume21 would foot the bill to get the program off the ground, and would not expect any fees. “If the program grows, we would need some sort of pay structure. But right now we’re looking at this idealistically, just to improve how things look in the Village,” he said. Agreeing that other gallery owners and real estate agents should have a voice in the conversation, the sub-committee will explore the perimeters of the program and report back. Offering a preemptive word of caution, Marengo said, “There are going to be people

who think if you make an installation, the real estate agents are committing to those installations and the spaces won’t get rented. It’s interesting to see how people view the emptiness. … Connecting the project to us (LJVMA) will give some assurance that the work is temporary and we want to see the spaces ultimately get rented.” LJVMA member Paul Burke commented, “I’m really in support of this.

FROM HOME DISMANTLED, A8 Mayer is a very significant individual and should be recognized as such,” she said. SOHO and LJHS agree that Mayer garnered enough personal merit for the house where she lived (and died in 1972), to fit the HRB Criterion B, which designates properties of significant individuals. In the July 5 letter LJHS sent to the city, the organization points out that Mayer’s legacy should be preserved as an inspiration for women in the STEM fields, adding that the hiring of intellectuals at the beginnings of UCSD shaped the current character of La Jolla. Kane commented, “Look at what her contribution was to the early campus, and to the setting the tone for UCSD campus to be a powerhouse in sciences. We wouldn’t be where we are today if she hadn’t be in that first faculty.” However, HRB doesn’t often designate structures as historical based on the people who lived in them. On this

note Hayes explained, “But that doesn’t mean that’s not a sufficient criteria. You can designate a building under any one of (existing) five criteria, and for this example specifically, she was a female, she lived there when she received the Nobel Prize, that’s very relevant for Criterion B.” On Friday, Aug. 12 Moomjian’s report was made public, and both LJHS and SOHO representatives expressed their dissatisfaction with the lack of changes added to the review. City communications officer Bill Harris said, “Any input like that, unless it points out some gross factual errors that would make the report invalid, is taken in front of the HRB when the report is presented, and the board itself is the one that decides to incorporate the concerns or details outside groups bring in the conversation.” — The HRB agenda and location for the Aug. 25 meeting will be posted this week on bit.ly/2bliwxD along with the staff report on 2345 Via Siena.

eborah Higgins co-founded Higgins Capital with her husband 21 years ago in La Jolla Shores. When their daughter joined the company, she said it truly became a family-owned broker dealer and investment advisory firm. As a founding member of the Miracle Circle’s Auxiliary for Miracle Babies, Deborah and other volunteers work together in various capacities to bring awareness of and raise money for families whose newborns are in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The Miracle Circle hosts pop-up boutiques, 5Ks, evenings out, and an annual gala so families of miracle babies fighting for their lives have the finances to Deborah Higgins cope with medical and emotional issues at a very difficult time. This year’s gala is Oct. 22 at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar. Tickets at miraclebabies.org What brought you to La Jolla? Work. My husband and I were hired to create a regional fixed income boutique for Lehman Brothers in the Shearson Lehman office on Prospect Street. We really enjoyed being surrounded by the beauty and La Jolla lifestyle, so when we opened Higgins Capital, we did so in La Jolla Shores. It was like Mayberry R.F.D. If you could snap your fingers and have it done, what might you add, subtract or improve in the area? The roads. La Jolla is one of the most beautiful places in the world with the ocean, spectacular homes, flora and fauna that bring in people worldwide, and we present to the world infrastructure that is falling apart. That infuriates me. Who are what inspires you? I am inspired by those who have focus and never give up, no matter the odds. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? Right off the bat, I would have my husband and daughter there to share. I would also invite both J.K. Rowling and Oprah Winfrey, because these women overcame great obstacles in their respective lives, live in the present, and work to give back.

Class founder Izzy Tihanyi said, “The in-line body poses — like a warrior’s pose — are very difficult to balance because you want to have your feet parallel.” The popularity of Stand Up Paddleboarding has risen rapidly in the past few years. It’s increasingly common to see people launching their boards from the Marine Room shore or the Scripps Pier to enjoy the views from a vantage point, surf some waves or get a workout. To learn more about this emerging sport, La Jolla Light contacted Surf Diva and this reporter went out with Tihanyi for a SUP lesson on Thursday, Aug. 11. “Paddle boarding first started 10 years ago,” said Tihanyi, who taught herself how to paddleboard a decade ago. “There was no one else out here who did it; we had never seen paddleboarding here at the Shores, so we just tried it ourselves and learned the hard way. Now we teach hundreds of people a year how to do it the easy way and the right way.” Stand Up Paddleboarding has been around for thousands of years if you consider a wide SEE PADDLE BOARDING, B4

Living in the Twilight Zone

I

La Jolla Cultural Partners

’ve written before about living in a house in the Twilight Zone. I’m still trying to figure out if we’d have to disclose this if we ever sell. The house was built in 1947, so you’d think the city would have caught on by now that it’s here. But several city databases — Environmental Services (trash pickup) and Transportation Services (public transit) still maintain there is no such address. I could accept this, except that the San Diego County Tax Assessor’s Office knows exactly where we are. It’s a quirky address. I get it. The next door neighbor to the south has a different street name. The houses directly to the east and north of me have yet another street name. For a while last year, the Post Office had the five houses on my street that have the same street name on three different postal routes. (The only reason our water hasn’t been turned off is that we can now pay most bills online.) But I’ll save the Post Office issues for a 10-part series in the future. One thing that has become clear to me over the 43 years I’ve lived in this house: Every city or county agency has its own database that does not communicate with any other city or county database. Why would some databases have our address and others not? My husband Olof thinks he has cracked the code. Agencies that want money

Snorkeling with Leopard Sharks

from us know where we live. Agencies providing services to us don’t. What’s even more annoying is that agencies who do not have your address in their database will not add it just on your say-so. The order has to come from Above. (Note: Sending them a copy of your property tax bill does not count as Above.) For the Transportation Services database, I don’t even bother fighting with them. If I want to know a bus schedule, I just plug in a neighbor’s address. But Environmental Services (garbage pickup) is another ball of trash, er, wax, especially in the summer time when they have relief crews doing pickups. For one whole summer, they missed our trash every single week. I really thought we had that sorted out until our trash pickup was missed again recently. Calling them is at least a half hour on hold. The recording advises you to make your missed trash pickup complaint on their website. So imagine my dismay when I typed in our address only to get the following: Your address was not found in our database. You may return to the previous page using the back button on your browser to modify your address and then re-submit the form. GAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! What is an even bigger mystery is that for most of the 43 years I’ve lived here, they’ve

been picking up our trash at an address they say doesn’t exist. How does that happen? Are they just driving by and say, “Look, Joe, a trash can. We probably ought to empty it.” The summer sub crews, however, might be following an address map. So when they see our trash bin sitting out at the curb they say, “Nope, not on our list! Sorry!” Miraculously they picked up our trash again the next week. But efforts to get a reply to numerous emails from the Environmental Services people have been for naught. Of course, what really concerned me after the most recent trash non-pickup episode was whether the emergency people had our address in their database. I called the police department’s non-emergency line. Inga: I want to make sure that my address is listed in the city’s emergency database. Operator: Why wouldn’t it be? Inga: Well, even though the house has been here for almost 70 years, the trash people don’t have it listed in theirs. Operator (annoyed): We’re not associated with the trash people. Inga: I just don’t want to have an emergency

and find out that our address is not in your database. Could you confirm that you have this address? Operator: You’d have to call 911 to be sure. Inga: I don’t really want to call 911 if I don’t have an actual emergency. Could you check to see if the police department has this address in its database? Operator: Um, yup, we have it. Inga: So that means that 911 will have it too, right? Operator: Not necessarily. I truly am not exaggerating about this Twilight Zone thing. We have a streetlight on our corner, for example, that both SDG&E and the city claim no knowledge of. Not on any of their maps, both parties say. So, real estate agent readers, is the admission that your house only exists on some dimensional planes a required disclosable? That trash pickup doesn’t happen when Mercury is in retrograde? Inquiring minds want to know. — Inga’s lighthearted looks at life appear regularly in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

FROM PADDLE BOARDING, B1 definition of it. But its origins as we know it today hail from Hawaii in the 1960s. Tihanyi explained, “The ‘beach boys’ in Hawaii used to paddle out and take photos of the tourists (in the ‘60s), so they sort of invented it, and then it went from there to Laird Hamilton bringing it back with the 12-foot SUPs that were created with surf technology. From there it exploded into a new sport that is healthy, fun and addictive. It’s good for anyone at any level.” SUP equipment is bigger, heavier and more expensive than a surf board, however Tihanyi said paddleboards have been decreasing in size and weight considerably in the last few years. A paddleboard can reach 12 feet and 30 pounds, whereas a surfboard for beginners is 9-feet long and weighs as much as 15 pounds. The other difference between the two, besides the constant standing required for paddleboarding, is that the balance on the wider SUPs is achieved by keeping both feet parallel, bending the knees and strengthening one’s core. SUP can be practiced both on calm waters — such as lakes, rivers — and the ocean. It goes without saying that paddling on the constantly moving waters of the ocean requires more skill than paddling along a still body of water. However, Tihanyi pointed out, La Jolla offers calmer waters south of La Jolla Shores, where many beginners launch, and more challenging waves for experienced paddlers around the Scripps Pier. When I told Tahini about my outdoorsy

“For lifelong surfers SUP (Stand Up Paddleboarding) is a way to get your adrenaline going. It’s a whole new challenge and it’s really exciting,” said Surf Diva instructor Izzy Tahini (pictured). temperament and that I’d paddled before on still waters, she agreed to launch me from Scripps Pier. We started the lesson with some paddleboarding theory and surf etiquette. “As paddleboarders, we have to maintain polite, non-aggressive behavior,” Tihanyi said. “I’m always giving up waves, because paddleboarders have an advantage, they can catch a lot more waves than surfers.” She said I should go over the white waters

laying on the board with my stomach, and once at the wave break, get on my knees and start paddling hard until past the peak, where I could finally stand. Despite the smaller waves of that Thursday — about 2 feet tall — a bigger set came in right in time to throw me off the board on my first attempt to make it in. I let the set pass, ducking under the waves, got back on the board and paddled my arms

out until I was way past the break. It was exhilarating. Actually, standing on the paddleboard wasn’t difficult, even on a choppy day such as that Thursday. Tihanyi even showed me how to do the yoga downward dog posture on the board and for a while we tried our balances on the ocean. Then, it was time to paddle around for a bit. “Where is the wind coming from?” Tihanyi asked me, and I was puzzled trying to guess the direction. “The trick is to throw some water up and observe where does it fall, or look at the flags on the lifeguarding stations,” she explained. With the wind coming from the ocean, we decided to paddle toward The Cove and Tihanyi advised to always start paddling against the wind to reserve some energy for the way back. She added, “when surfing and catching a wave, it’s a bit more sedentary … on a paddle board you’re constantly moving and it’s an amazing workout.” Tihanyi said that on the jet ski-free waters of The Cove, the only hazard to watch out for are the kayaks. “They are big and they don’t turn,” she explained, adding that the maneuverability of the SUP isn’t about muscling your way through the waves, “it’s how you handle the paddle, it’s all paddling, balance, technique and where you are positioned on the board.” To go back in, Tihanyi showed me how to catch a wave on a SUP. She advised I do so on my knees, and just paddle really hard forward when the wave came. I was surprised at how much easier the extra paddling power made it to catch the wave, and I rode it all the way to shore.

Three artists show work at Bird Rock café this month BY JANE WHEELER The projects of three area artists fill Bird Rock Coffee Roasters café at 5827 La Jolla Blvd. this month: Check out the dynamic large-scale abstracts from Andy Jones, the inviting acrylics of the shoreline and waves by Chris McGrath, and the artfully displayed photos of surfer Ryan Gambrell. Jones grew up in La Jolla attending Bird Rock Elementary, Muirlands Middle, La Jolla High School and San Diego State University. He said he explored many types of art methods through his multimedia curriculum, landing him with a love for painting and photography. His work explores techniques he crafted

while working in wetlabs and darkrooms, however this style is not limited to his photographic prints. Jones’ paintings also incorporate natural drips and the splatter of ink and paint, commonly found in darkroom printing. The paintings explore how photorealistic outlines, finger-painting, splatter-painting and ink-washing can all coincide in one piece of art. Colorblind, Jones said his art is influenced by everyday life — sharing experiences with his family, his love of the ocean, traveling the world and his faith in God. He resides in Pacific Beach and spends each day creating art and enjoying the beauty of the area. On the Web: one14visuals.com

Photographer and avid surfer Gambrell said he is a proud San Diego native and adventure enthusiast. He always strives to keep things exciting in his life, which has led to things such as taking selfies with sharks! These experiences and a strong regard for the Earth’s beauty, created his drive and passion to capture moments on film.

“Please enjoy some of my favorite photos from afar and here at home,” he said. See this amazing surfer with a infectious positive attitude by watching the inspirational interview on his website ryangambrell.com or on YouTube “Ryan Gambrell proves positive attitudes triumph in surf — The Inertia.”

What is your philosophy of life? Have a good heart. What would be your dream vacation? A month with my husband and daughter immersed in the local culture of an Italian city with side trips here and there. What clothing item in your closet will you never part with? The silk ensemble I wore when we eloped to Las Vegas.

STEPHANIE PAIGE describes her work as “meditative, peaceful and inspired by Mother Nature.” She imparts in her work a message of balance, connectedness and living in the moment. Her paintings meld a contemporary edge with a rustic earthy feeling. She makes marble dust plasters which she applies layer by layer using natural pigments for color. She sands, waxes, burnishes and polishes each layer before the process starts again with the next layer. Stephanie established her artistic career in 1990. Her work has been featured in over 50 publications including The New York Times, Sunset Magazine, Décor and Style, San Diego Home and Garden, The Union Tribune, and San Diego Magazine. ALISON HALEY PAUL paints lavishly textured contemporary land and seascapes full of nuanced color. She works with palette knives to create serene yet energetic contemporary works in oil, wax, charcoal, pigment and graphite, a process which took her many years to develop. She is inspired by nature, weather and the seasons, nuances in the skies, shifting clouds, changing tides, the art and majesty of the natural world around her. Haley Paul majored in art and design at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY and earned a B.A. at The Design Institute in San Diego.

BEN HECHT has been a professional artist since 1994. He received a B.A in Fine Art and an M.A. in Education from UC Santa Cruz. Hecht’s ”Aquas Aliis” (other waters) series are a combination of his original ocean photography and extensive use of colorful encaustic (beeswax) paints. Hecht creates all of his paints utilizing a local apiary (bee colony), fine dry pigments and dramar resin in crystallized form. This series uses photography taken from above, combined with intense glassy blue and green encaustic beeswax juxtaposed with heavily textured whites to create a striking contrast and unique visual style. Hecht’s work is included in many private and public collections including Scripps Institute, Chapman University and San Jose City Hall.

Faking Baking: Heatless summer treats

W

hile summer’s sweet bounty of crisp ruby cherries, juicy peaches, and crunchy plums satiate some dessert cravings, alas, they’re no substitute for homebaked delights. I miss cranking up the oven (but wouldn’t dare), perfuming the kitchen with the heady aromas of baked goodies and indulging in the fruits of my labor. Not to be deprived, here’s a line up of no-bake delights to satisfy the most discriminating sweet tooths without heating up your kitchen. ■ Raise the Bar: One of the few foods emblematic of Canadian cuisine is the prized Nanaimo bar, a confection that originated in the 1950s from the city on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The recipe evolved over the years as homemakers in a friendly competition tried to create the most scrumptious tri-layered treat that frequently appeared in local newspaper columns and other resources, including the “Nanaimo Hospital Auxiliary Cookbook.” While the chewy crust layer stayed faithful to the original recipe, the middle and top layers were constantly being refined. Previous names of the concoction included, “The Quickie Square,” and the “London Fog Bar,” but the current Nanaimo Bar that coveted

the award for Canada’s best confection starts with a bottom layer of Graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, shaved coconut, chopped pecans and sugar, followed by a middle layer of buttery vanilla custard, topped with a silky semi-sweet chocolate icing. A blissful treat, ehh? ■ Nostalgic Noshes: Although National S’mores Day passed (Aug. 10), we can still enjoy “some more” of these iconic campfire treats throughout the dog days of summer. While no one has laid a solid claim to its creation, the first recipe appeared in a 1927 handbook, “Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts.” S’mores is a triple threat with three solid components: marshmallows, honey Graham crackers and chocolate bars. Creative chefs have tweaked the original version, using super dark chocolate infused with smoky and zesty flavors, including chili, cayenne pepper and earthy sea salts, or adding a layer of crispy, applewood bacon, banana slices, or caramel and toasted pecans. An adult-only version incorporates a splash of Martini of Smirnoff Marshmallow or cinnamon-infused vanilla vodka to the recipe. Rice Krispies Treats, another throw back from the past was the brainchild of Kellogg’s

employee Mildred Day who combined Rice Krispies cereal with melted marshmallows and margarine as a creative way to raise money for the Camp Fire Girls annual bake sale in the late 1930s. For a modern (and healthier) version of these gooey morsels blend Rice Krispies or puffed rice with vegan marshmallows, almond butter, organic butter, and spices to please the palate like cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg or cardamom. ■ Say Cheese! A smooth as silk cheesecake can be whipped up in minutes, then popped in the fridge for an elegant and luscious dessert. A crispy (and gluten-free) crust combines almond or coconut flour, brown sugar and melted butter. For the filling simply blend cream cheese, sour cream and flavorings to suit your mood. Add a splash of Kahlua for a java jolt, or nutty liqueurs (Frangelico for a hazelnut essence, Amaretto for almond notes), fresh vanilla beans, Meyer lemon or lime zests, or exhilarating mint extract. Top with fresh berries, exotic fruit slices, or dark chocolate wafers to transform simple to spectacular instantly. ■ National Treasures: Whip up no-bake treats from around the world, including Italy’s tiramisu with lady fingers drenched in coffee and liqueur (recipe provided). England’s trifle with creamy custard and seasonal fruits, India’s celebratory sweet called laddu made with gram (chickpea) flour, ghee butter, cashews, powdered sugar and cinnamon rolled into melt-in-your-mouth balls, or Middle Eastern delights, such as, baklava (honey-drenched phyllo pastry filled with crushed pistachios) or halvah, a confection of tahini (sesame paste) and assorted nuts.

Tiramisu A-Go-Go ■ Ingredients: • 18 ladyfingers • 2 ounces Kahlua, Tia Maria or other coffee liqueur • 1 ounce rum •6 ounces black coffee • 1 pound mascarpone cheese •1/3 cup Confectioners’ sugar • Shaved bittersweet chocolate ■ Method: Blend mascarpone cheese with sugar until smooth. Set aside. Combine liqueur, rum and coffee (room temperature). Dip ladyfingers in the liquid careful not to make them soggy. Remove and layer in a margarita or cocktail glass. Spread a thick layer of cheese, then top with another ladyfinger and dollop of cheese. Chill. Sprinkle with shaved chocolate before serving. Serves 4. — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

How your hearing works: Sound enters your ear canal through the air.

Hearing Problem #1 The ear canal’s job is to funnel sound to your ear drum. Sometimes the canal becomes plugged with wax , which mimics a hearing loss because it blocks sound from reaching your eardrum. Use of a cotton swab will pack wax even more. We will check for impacted wax with a video ear camera to see if this is a problem.

Sound Reaches Your Eardrum, which vibrates, starting a chain reaction.

The eardrum is located at the end of your ear canal. Your ear drum catches sound waves, vibrates, and begins a chain reaction. Your eardrum is connected to the first of three bones. We will check to ensure your eardrum is healthy.

The eardrum is connected to the first of three tiny bones. These bones are hinged and each causes the one next to it to move.

Hearing Problem #2 The three tiny bones of your inner ear conduct sound between your ear drum and your cochlea. Otosclerosis is the calcification of these bones, resulting in conductive hearing loss. About 10% of people have this type of loss.

This movement vibrates against the oval window in your cochlea, sending sound waves through this snail shaped organ.

Hearing Problem #3 The Cochlea is a snail-shaped organ containing thousands of living hair cells called stereocilia. A condition known as Sensorineural hearing loss (nerve type hearing loss) occurs when any of the hair cells become damaged.

Inside the cochlea are thousands of microscopic hair cells called stereocilia, and these hair cells sense the motion of sound waves.

About 90% of hearing loss is this type. A new hearing computer has now been released that is programmed specifically for the frequencies of hair cells that are damaged, resulting in improved speech understanding.

Consonants

The NuEar NowTM is a tiny new device that can be programmed to amplify only missing consonant sounds, stimulating the high-frequency hair cells all while programmed to ignore the rest. The brain of this smart new device is a microprocessor chip that analyses and clarifies sound according to its frequency. Using a technology called Live Speech Mapping, the specialist adjusts the high frequency speech sounds like a woman’s voice until they are clearer. The prescription is set as you watch and listen. You will hear immediate before and after benefits.

If you’re having trouble understanding conversation, you owe it to yourself to schedule your free hearing exam* today.

San Diego Vein Institute 760.944.9263

Varicose Veins: Symptom of Aging or a Sign of Something Harmful? First off, the heading isn’t meant to make anyone with blue rope veins on their legs live in fear. But it is important to know that varicose veins are a medical, and not a merely cosmetic, condition. Varicose veins and even spider veins are

signs of chronic vein disease. When you have vein disease, you have a higher risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a clot in the vein, because of poor blood flow in the weak veins. If it breaks free and travels to the lung, the consequences could be serious—this becomes a pulmonary embolism (PE), and of the 300,000-600,000 people who get DVT or PE each year, 60,000 to 100,000 will die from it. In some cases, DVT or PE can lead to a lifelong disability, or lead to chronic leg pain and swelling that will never go away. When you hear the term chronic vein disease, or CVD, it usually refers to chronic conditions that are related to the abnormal or diseased veins. Varicose veins and spider veins are included in this, as are leg swelling and pain. But chronic vein disease also refers to the following:

Chronic venous insufficiency Skin changes on the leg Leg ulcers Phlebitis Vascular malformations There are other symptoms of CVD aside from the ugly veins, and it should trigger an immediate trip to the doctor if you have any of the following: Warmth of the skin Redness and itching Leg fatigue that won’t go away Lightheadedness Rapid pulse and, in extreme cases, Chest pain As I’ve discussed in previous columns, vein disease can happen to anyone, at any age, including young women and men. It is hereditary, with about 75% of patients

having a family history of CVD. Unfortunately, there is no cure for varicose veins or spider veins, and once you get them, they will come back, as they are symptoms of a weakness in the veins where blood can pool. However, it is important to have varicose veins checked by doctors. While the basic treatment of wearing compression stockings can help, it is best to have varicose veins removed with noninvasive treatments such as sclerotherapy, as well as making lifestyle changes to respond to your vein disease and keep it in check. To have your varicose veins and spider veins checked and treated with sclerotherapy or another in-office treatment, visit us at www.sdveininstitute.com or contact us at 760-944-9263. Make sure you also visit your primary care physician to monitor your vein disease.

Slime Time draws curious to La Jolla Library

I

t’s alive! No, wait ... it’s magnetic! About 50 children and their guardians filled La Jolla Riford Library on Aug. 9 to explore the science of “magnetic slime,” during a special event that was part of the annual Summer Reading Program, for which sign-ups ended Aug. 15. After group members made their own personal slime out of glue, cornstarch and soap, Youth Services librarian Angie Stava and volunteers added metal shavings to the preparations to magnetize them. Once the “slime” was mixed together and pliable enough, the young scientists waved a magnet over their concoctions and watched as it “jumped” onto the magnet. Find a calendar of library events at lajollalibrary.org/events — Ashley Mackin

Aubrie Apple joins Willis Allen Real Estate

W

illis Allen Real Estate has announced the addition of Realtor Aubrie Apple to its La Jolla team. Apple has a background in marketing, public relations and sales prior to becoming a Realtor. But real estate runs in the veins of this Colorado native. Her mother owns a 23-year old boutique real estate agency in the upscale mountain community of Vail, where Apple has had her real estate license since 2011. After college graduation, Apple became the marketing director at her mother’s Aubrie Apple agency. This experience gave Apple an opportunity to learn more about high-end luxury clients who are interested in everything from ranches and ski-in/ski-out homes to golf course properties. “This makes me better prepared to mediate and handle any issues that might arise with my clients’ transactions,” Apple said, adding Willis Allen was the perfect fit for her. “I was very attracted to Willis Allen being a family-owned business rooted in tradition and very connected with the La Jolla and San Diego communities. Also, the company’s reputation of integrity, professionalism and doing what’s right for the client is exactly how I strive to conduct myself in all matters of real estate.” You can reach Apple at (970) 376-5016 or AubrieApple@willisallen.com
