BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON Prospect Street residents who live near La Jolla Rec Center showed up en masse at the La Jolla Park & Rec (LJPR) board meeting Aug. 23 to voice their opposition to a skateboard park being considered as part of the playground renovation plans. Details of the renovation project were also discussed and new playground layout configurations were presented. After much discussion about the skate-park, the board voted unanimously to reject the proposal. LJPR announced its plans to renovate the playground (which has 35-year-old play equipment and is not ADA-compliant) in November 2016, and then collected community feedback at a forum in December. Since then, it has discussed various plans and welcomed new presentations at each of its monthly meetings. One idea to come forward was the addition of a skateboard park. The board released a survey to determine playground changes the community would like to see, and reportedly, the skate-park had “great support.” SEE REC CENTER, A3

Working Document Done Proposed ‘Mansionization’ rules make group rounds Next presentation at LJCPA, Sept. 7

BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON Regulations to curb the proliferation of “mansionization” of small lots in La Jolla are one step closer to the floor of City Hall. But first, they must garner local approval and a vote of support from the La Jolla Community Planning Association, which will hear the proposals, 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 7 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. Spurred by organized residents known as Citizens for Responsible Coastal Development (CRCD), the Incentive Based Zoning for Coastal Development regulations come in response to the increase in houses being built that are boxy, out of character with the neighborhood and significantly larger than the

The regulations propose a point system that would allow developers to easily obtain a Coastal Development Permit if they integrate features recommended in the La Jolla Community Plan.

The measure recently earned a vote of support from La Jolla’s Development Permit Review committee and La Jolla Shores Planned District Advisory Board. The draft that exists now, according to

CRCD member Sharon Wampler, is a “working document” and “not final until the City says it is final.” The CRCD committee has been working on the proposal for more SEE MANSIONIZATION, A8

www.lajollalight.com FROM REC CENTER, A1 Of the skate-park proposal, acting chair Mary Coakley Munk explained, “Because we are a community center, everyone has the right to present whatever they would like to see here, so the skate-park was discussed because residents wanted it. But now we have to make a decision based on what is best for the community.” Trustee Gail Forbes added, “One of the reasons we continue to talk about the skateboard park is we had a strong presentation earlier this year and there was a very good response and great support from our survey respondents. There was also the thought that young children on Big Wheels or tricycles would have a place to ride that is legal, safe and under supervision. Those things might be possible, but not so in the acreage we have to work with at the Rec Center.” Still, residents in attendance argued that a skate-park would change the character of the community and the Rec Center, as well as increase noise and discourage certain age groups from using the facility. A motion to deny the installation of a skateboard park at La Jolla Rec Center was made and passed unanimously. “There will be no further discussion of improving the Rec Center that will include any plans for a skate park,” Coakley Munk concluded.

Plans on the drawing board

As for the playground renovation as a whole, the board previously discussed whether to keep the footprint as it is, but space out equipment to accommodate wheelchairs and walkers, or completely

LA JOLLA LIGHT - AUGUST 31, 2017 - PAGE A3

reconfigure the grounds to maximize play space and add new game courts. Coakley Munk said the “early estimate” for the project is $2 million to $3 million, and the board has approximately $50,000 in the bank. The previously-reported $350,000 “commitment” toward the renovation was orchestrated by former LJPR chair Cindy Greatrex. With her resignation earlier this year, the commitment is apparently void. “Our hope is that this project will be entirely privately funded. As soon as you take a nickel from the City, the project becomes three times more expensive and takes four time longer,” Coakley Munk said. Leaning toward rearranging the playground, architect and La Jolla native Trace Wilson presented three renderings, largely differentiated by the placement of the basketball courts. Coakley Munk noted to attendees that these plans were not final and “nothing is set in stone,” in terms of which architect or which plans the LJPR board will pursue. (See the renderings and how to vote for your favorite on A19.) “I used to play at the Rec Center when I was a kid,” Wilson told the board. “My grandmother would bring me here, so this place has a special place in my heart. One of the most fascinating things about the Rec Center is its history. In 1915, when this place opened, Rec Centers were very important because both parents were working and children would play in the streets, there was nowhere safe to play.” Wilson’s plans include more shading and seating, and a proposed traffic circle where Prospect Street, Draper Avenue and Silverado Street meet. He also proposed

adding a café or kiosk onsite so parents can grab coffee or lunch while they watch their children. Other alternatives could be a “history path” to pay homage to the Rec Center, and a water feature that would be a nod to the wading pool in place when the Rec Center first opened. Wilson offered three layout scenarios: 1) Push the basketball courts to the south toward the tennis court to allow for an additional court or play structure. 2) Push the basketball courts closer to the Draper Avenue edge and consolidate the playground/tot lot in the center, preserving the green multi-use field. 3) Take out some of the green field and move the basketball courts closer to Cuvier Street to open up play space in the center of the playground. However, each proposal affects a selection of residents opposed to a respective option due to noise. For example, those who live along Prospect Street do not want to see the courts moved closer to their homes, reporting they can already hear games in play. The board did not vote on any set of plans, but agreed to gather community input on the layouts and proceed from there to determine theme or design. They are considering another community meeting, similar to the forum in December, at which the layout plans can be presented and voted upon to be sure the community-at-large has a change to weigh-in. Details will be forthcoming and reported in La Jolla Light. Residents can learn more about the playground and provide their feedback at: reviveljrc.org or reviveljrc@gmail.com

In other LJP&R news: ■ Senior Dance changes: To better accommodate La Jollan’s holiday schedules, the Senior Winter Dance will be moved to November and renamed the Fall Dance. Pending City approval, the tentative date is Nov. 17. ■ Goodbye Bridge dinners: The popular monthly Bridge game and social dinner was canceled following the resignation of its instructor. Unless another instructor can be located, the gathering will be canceled permanently. Those interested can call Rec Center director Nicole Otjens at (858) 552-1658 for more information. ■ Hopscotch, maze coming: As part of a Girl Scout Silver Award project, La Jolla Scouts Ari Conboy and Jamee Newman presented plans to paint a hopscotch court and walkable maze on the Rec Center blacktop. The hopscotch court will be 12- to 16-feet long, with each square 18- to 24-inches wide. The maze would be 18 feet in diameter. The Scouts have a Sept. 30 deadline for completing the project, which “must leave a lasting impact and benefit the community.” The Scouts said they would carry out the project now, with the understanding that the playground will be renovated and their work likely torn out. They agreed to return following the renovation to replace the courts if appropriate. — La Jolla Park & Rec board next meets 5 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 27 La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. reviveljrc.org

WindanSea home by noted architect gets historical nod BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON A property in WindanSea received unanimous support for historical designation from the San Diego Historical Resources Board (HRB) during its Aug. 24 meeting downtown. The designation request was listed on the “consent agenda,” which means there was no discussion on the item. The designation had the support of HRB staff, the current property owner and La Jolla Historical Society. The Herbert and Alexina Childs/Thomas L. Shepherd House (so named because Herbert and Alexina Childs constructed the home as their residence with Master Architect Thomas L. Shepherd) is located at 210 Westbourne St. The house is currently owned by the Laughlin/Sage Family Trust. According to HRB staff recommendations, the motion to designate the property was based on two findings: 1) “The resource (house) embodies the distinctive characteristics through the retention of character-defining features of the French Eclectic style with Georgian influences and retains a good level of architectural integrity from its 1950 to 1971 period of significance. Specifically, the resource retains its high-pitched roof, exterior stucco, upward flaring eaves, an asymmetrical façade, cedar shingle roof, decorative quoin (external angle of a wall or building) detailing at the corners and around the main entrance, wood divided light windows and doors, Doric pilasters;

The historically designated Herbert and Alexina Childs/Thomas L. Shepherd House at 210 Westbourne St. wide plaster cornice and the main entry door with entablature.” 2) “The resource is representative of a notable work of Master Architect Thomas L. Shepherd and retains integrity as it relates to his original design and his later modifications. Specifically, the resource reflects Shepherd’s distinctive and immediately recognizable style, blending classic revival styles of the past with a

mid-century design aesthetic. Shepherd was responsible for the design of the both the original house and the later 1971 additions, which maintained the original styling that was so distinctive of his work.” According to the City of San Diego Report to the Historical Resources Board, Thomas Shepherd was born in 1897 in Wisconsin and studied architecture at Columbia University. His designs were influenced by

ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

his travels in Europe, particularly in the Mediterranean region. In 1926, he relocated to La Jolla and designed residences in new subdivisions in La Jolla, but also throughout San Diego. In addition to his houses, he designed the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club, the Marine Room, the Spanish-style Arcade building and an addition to the La Valencia Hotel. Shepherd passed away in 1979 at age 82.

Parks & Beaches seeks historical designation for Children’s Pool BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON La Jolla Parks & Beaches advisory board voted to pursue historical designation for the Children’s Pool during its Aug. 28 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center. Such a designation for the landmark — which was created with the construction of the sea wall funded by La Jolla benefactress Ellen Browning Scripps in 1931 — would provide new opportunities for its maintenance and enhancement. The board has been discussing the possibility since April. The resolution, as follows, will be submitted to the California Register of Historical Resources and then to the National Register: “La Jolla Parks & Beaches, Inc., jointly with the La Jolla Historical Society, nominate the Children’s Pool to be nationally designated as a historic site on all applicable grounds, with a purpose to elevate its historicity, deal with modern building codes which would otherwise be applicable in an adverse way, and potentially bring funding opportunities for its preservation.” The idea for historic designation came during the course of planning for the Children’s Pool Walk beautification project to aesthetically improve the sidewalk and viewing area above Children’s Pool and open up pedestrian flow. As City Engineers studied the area, they determined the retaining wall system, which delineates Children’s Pool along the sidewalk, may qualify as historic, and that would limit the modifications that could be carried out. San Diego public information officer Alec Phillipp previously told the Light, “Any

La Jolla Parks & Beaches member Ken Hunrichs is spearheading the campaign for historical designation.

La Jolla Children’s Pool, as seen in August 2017, first opened in 1931.

improvements to the retaining wall as part of the project should be consistent with the U.S. Secretary of Interior’s Standards for preserving historical resources” and “any improvements to existing structures would trigger modifications to meet current (safety) code requirements.” To get the wall up to code without historical designation, early recommendations included a nearly four-foot guardrail and/or mesh screen. But, if the site was to be historically designated, improvements would not necessarily have to conform to current City safety standards and would allow for sidewalk beautification to go forth in a

modified way. La Jolla Historical Society Preservation Committee chair Diane Kane, who spoke about the pros and cons of historical designation at LJP&B’s April 24 meeting, said when a resource is both historic and serves a safety purpose, its safety tends to override the historical components. “If the (only) issue is that this was built a long time ago and doesn’t come up to current standards, that doesn’t mean it’s inherently unsafe, it’s just not at current standards. The state building code allows you to keep historic material in its condition as long as it’s not unsafe. If it is unsafe, you have to ask ‘in what way is it unsafe?’ and

ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

‘what is the minimum amount of treatment necessary to correct whatever safety issues are identified?’ ” she said. The modified Children’s Pool Walk beautification project, which bears potential historicity in mind, includes making sidewalk repairs up to the existing wall, but not so as to disturb the wall and filling in the planters with concrete or decomposed granite to open up pedestrian flow. Additionally, should the area receive designation, there might be public funding to improve the aesthetics, and allowances for educational signage on its history, and work could proceed on the Children’s Pool Walk beautification project next summer.

After one year, the committee dissolved and continued worked as a citizen’s initiative. The current system for new development requires a Coastal Development Permit, which can take years to obtain, cost thousands of dollars and require community review. There is one exemption, known as the “50 percent rule,” through which a developer can bypass the Coastal Development Permit process and obtain the permit over-the-counter if they maintain 50 percent of the original structure. However, “systematic abuse” of this rule has yielded houses being torn down to their studs and rebuilt in a style that became known as “McMansions” (large, boxy, modern houses). “We heard from a number of property owners, developers and architects that the current process is expensive, lengthy and unpredictable,” said CRCD member Diane Kane. “There was also a systematic abuse of the 50 percent rule for coastal permits. That is creating a lot of projects that are getting no community review. … There is also a disconnect between the recommendations in the San Diego Municipal Code and the local Community Plan and we’ve learned this is going on all over San Diego.” Through the proposed new rules, a developer could obtain a Coastal Development Permit over-the-counter if they include in the designs features recommended

in the La Jolla Community Plan and adhere to what is known as a “floating Floor-Area Ratio (FAR)” system.

FAR findings

FAR has been defined as the relationship between the total amount of usable floor area that a building has, or has been permitted for the building, and the total area of the lot on which the building stands. The maximum FAR allowed in La Jolla is .6 (not including non-livable spaces such as basements, carports and decks) but La Jolla Shores does not have a FAR maximum. The FAR maximums in turn put a limit on the maximum square footage of the proposed development. The larger the FAR, the more square footage allowed. “We looked at 20 other cities to see what they are doing,” Kane said. “The system most conducive to our situation in La Jolla is the one developed in Coronado where (with new development) the base FAR is .4, but you can earn points to reach as much as .6 FAR. You can do a plan check at the counter and get a permit by showing in your plans where those incentive-generating features were used. We’re not proposing a reduction in FAR, just how you get there.” Incentives include: designing houses of a single story; building mass being broken up with H, I, L or U shaped floor plans; setting back the second story from the first story by a minimum of eight feet on one or more secondary facades; and more. There are 11 incentives total. “If you do not want to do that, if you want to do something really creative and interesting, you can still do that, you just can’t do it over the counter (and will have to

undergo full community review),” Kane said. Should a developer seek a (very common) Site Development Permit in addition to a Coastal Development Permit, they would still need to come before the community planning groups for review.

Early review

When heard at La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (for information only, not a vote) trustee Matt Edwards opined that these regulations could cause “the pendulum to swing too far.” Added trustee and architect Tony Crisafi, “This is going to lead the area into this half-overbuilt-half-cottages community. It could help us formulate ideas about whether proposals are good enough because we have specific measures to which we can refer. But is it so radical that if we apply it to our review process, versus what’s already built in the community, are we going to find it’s too large a conflict (to what is already here)?”

Next steps

According to City of San Diego Planner Marlon Pangilinan, once the proposal makes the rounds to La Jolla’s community groups, and gets a vote, it proceeds to the Planning Department and other City entities before it comes back to the community for a final vote. “If and when City staff decides to move forward with it, it will come back to the community for a formal recommendation,” he said.

Shores permitters see plans for house twice the size of its neighbors BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON A development project that could yield one of the largest houses by Floor Area Ratio (FAR) in a La Jolla Shores neighborhood came before the La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (PRC) during its Aug. 22 meeting. The La Jolla Shores’ Planned District Ordinance (design guidelines) does not impose a maximum FAR, so though PRC cannot deny a development based on its FAR, the committee could not bring itself to support the project at hand. Applicant Michael Morton requests a Coastal Development Permit and Site Development Permit to demolish an existing house and construct a 4,689-square-foot two-story house with a 784-square-foot basement, swimming pool and spa at 8276 Paseo Del Ocaso. The site is 0.12 acre (5,227 square feet). The neighborhood FAR average is .44 and the proposed house would have a FAR of .89. The project was originally proposed at .94 FAR, but the square footage was reduced. FAR has been defined as the relationship between the total amount of usable floor area that a building has, or has been permitted for the building, and the total area of the lot on which the building stands. “Most of the newer houses are larger than existing homes. The houses that were built in the 1950s were 1,800 to 2,000 square feet on these lots,” Morton said. “It is one of the larger homes … but we have the required landscape coverage and meet the metrics required under the La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance.”

ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

Michael Morton presents renderings for a proposed house on Paseo Del Ocaso in La Jolla Shores. Noting Shores Permit Review Committee members’ concerns with the plans, he agreed to attend the next meeting with more details. He explained the setbacks have been increased on the north and south side of the six-bedroom house with 18-foot driveway leading to a two car garage. “The second floor is set back by about five feet. There are a series of staggers that follow the south elevation and let light into the house,” he said, and described the proposal as a Mediterranean-style house with a courtyard in the front. At its highest, the roof deck

ridge is around 28 feet. But trustees still couldn’t sit with the .89 FAR and how close the house ends up to neighboring properties. PRC board member Tony Crisafi commented, “I appreciate the outside of the house and I think The Shores is evolving. … But I’m uncomfortable when I see the houses going in that are two-stories of this form ... they seem to look a little aggressive

when they are too close to the setback line. You will have neighbor upon neighbor. “Speaking to the FAR issue, we use it as a metric because we cannot see how this home relates massing-wide to the surrounding homes. To go from an average of 44 percent to 89 percent FAR — we would need to see something extraordinarily created to mitigate the mass of the building.” Other project issues included the proximity to an older, smaller house; articulation to break up the massing of vertical walls and whether the driveway is long enough. Neighbor Mary Little spoke to the proximity of the house to hers, and the possibility of a deck that looks over her yard and living room. “If the pool should leak, it would destroy my vegetation and I’m worried about the vibration (from construction) because when they start digging right next to me, my wall might fall down because I have an older house,” she said. Morton noted that the existing house had a deck. Although he said he liked the “color schemes and exterior details,” trustee Matt Edwards said the walls appeared to be straight up, with the exception of small rectangular “cut-outs” in their surface. He also had concerns about the driveway not being 20 feet long to accommodate a standard-sized car. “A car with a similar driveway has to park at an angle to keep from sticking out into the sidewalk,” he said. Rather than proceed with a vote, Morton volunteered to come back to a future meeting with responses to committee issues.

La Jolla dental duo of D’Angelo and Olson adds a third dentist: Dr. Ryan Hoffman

Dr. Joseph D’Angelo, Dr. Ashley Olson and Dr. Ryan Hoffman

COURTESY

BY COREY LEVITAN The La Jolla dental office of Dr. Joseph D’Angelo and Dr. Ashley Olson has added a third chair, in which Dr. Ryan Hoffman is already seeing patients. “I feel extremely privileged and honored to be joining such an elite practice with such an incredible reputation,” Hoffman said. It was during a dental industry event at Petco Park last year that D’Angelo and Olson met Hoffman, who was just finishing his training in surgical and restorative dentistry at the VA Hospital in La Jolla. “We weren’t looking for somebody necessarily, but we just felt strongly that he fit the culture of our practice so well,” D’Angelo said. “We really want to be able to provide the highest-quality dentistry available. We also want to be able to provide a nice broad range of services to our patients under one roof.” The practice had already physically expanded by swallowing an office next door, which D’Angelo had been subletting since opening his current office in 2004 as a solo practitioner. “We had the capacity for three full-time dentists, and we thought now

was a good time,” Olson said. D’Angelo, a native of Long Island who received his dental degree from the University of North Carolina, established his La Jolla practice in 1990. In 2014, he partnered with Olson — a native of Seattle who graduated from the USC School of Dentistry — and says he was ready to take the partnership plunge again. “Part of it was an interest growing the practice long-term,” D’Angelo said. “Another part was that we wanted to increase the availability.” Hoffman — a native of Poughkeepsie, New York who has a doctorate of dental surgery from the State University of New York at Stony Brook — said he feels “privileged and honored” to join such a well-regarded practice. “I look forward to upholding their reputation and providing the highest level of care possible,” he said. The D’Angelo, Olson, Hoffman dental offices are at 1111 Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla.

They’re Back-in-School!

New teachers, programs greet La Jolla students Torrey Pines Elementary

BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON By Aug. 28, all of La Jolla’s public schools were back in session. In addition to the hundreds of new students (whether freshmen, kindergarteners or transfers), some La Jolla schools welcomed new faculty. Here is the rundown on what’s changed this year.

La Jolla High School

La Jolla High School has eight new faculty joining the Vikings staff. Among them: two new math teachers; one new teacher in special education, science, history, English and Industrial Arts; and one new counselor. Earlier this calendar year, LJHS was granted a full six-year Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) accreditation. “After all our hard work last year, we certainly deserve to pat ourselves on the back,” said Principal Charles Podhorsky. “In order to continue moving in a positive direction, we will use our WASC findings to celebrate our accomplishments, as well as provide direction for our future growth. “With continued commitment and refinement of the work we do, I know that La Jolla High can become a model school for all schools. I believe with all my heart that La Jolla is destined to be the top high school in the country. We have a wonderful group of teachers and staff with passion for students.”

Muirlands Middle School

Muirlands Middle School hired seven new teachers, many of whom are experienced

PEARL PREIS

Muirlands Middle School principal Harlan Klein welcomes back students, Aug. 28, on the first day of the new academic year. secondary teachers within San Diego Unified School District. Principal Harlan Klein said students will start school on a newly cleaned and recently improved campus. “Over the summer, the campus was power-washed and all classrooms deep-cleaned. In addition, some landscape projects and locker maintenance were completed,” he said. “Students will also enjoy the new tables and umbrellas in the quad area that were installed at the end of last year.”

State of California Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) will be implemented. In a letter to Bird Rock families, Principal Amanda Hale wrote, “NGSS requires students to ‘think like a scientist,’ build models, and explain investigations. Students will engage in the study of Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Math (STEAM) through projects and a connected learning approach. The BRE Foundation has funded a resource teacher, Mr. Ashworth, to support teachers to strengthen their Bird Rock Elementary understanding of NGSS and the Bird Rock reports no major changes, but instructional shifts that align with this notes that this is the second year in which the approach to learning.”

TRUST IN US — to — HELP GUIDE YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE

Although it is also business-as-usual with no major changes at Torrey Pines Elementary School, Principal Sarah Ott said there were certain areas about which the school is “extremely excited,” chiefly its technology and Spanish programs and the Back-to-school Community Block Party. “We are pleased to highlight our unique collaboration with our nearby top-ranked academic institution, UC San Diego. “Dr. Nadir Weibel, TPES parent and professor in UCSD’s Department of Computer Science and Engineering, has spearheaded our technology program, which brings talented UCSD students to teach technology (coding, 3D printing, robotics) to eager TPES students. These college students will also consult with teachers to incorporate technology into the curriculum,” said Ott. Further, the Spanish program has been expanded and is available to all students. As for the Block Party, 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 24 on the TPES campus, Ott said, “It’s our largest family event of the year, and it was started three years ago as an effort to focus on school community involvement.” Last year, she said, families from other local schools attended.

CRIME AND PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS Accidental deaths top Medical Examiner’s list The San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Department (ME) released its 2016 annual report, which is designed to provide an overview of victim characteristics, as well as the frequency, cause and location of deaths in the county. The scope of activities of the Medical Examiner’s Department is largely based on Government Code 27491 which states that all unnatural deaths including homicides, suicides, accidents, and deaths in custody are, by definition, coroner/medical examiner cases, as well as infectious diseases reaching epidemic proportions, deaths in state or local institutions, and deaths believed to be natural but sudden and unexpected where the decedent has not seen their health care provider in the last 20 days of life. 8,419 deaths were reported to the ME’s office in 2016 (36 percent were within ME jurisdiction). The breakdown of death cause is: 47 percent accident; 33 percent natural; 14 percent suicide; 4 percent homicide; 2 percent undetermined. “There has been a general increasing trend in unintentional deaths due to drugs and medications over the past 15 years,” the ME’s office reports. In response to the reported 101 pedestrians deaths, Circulate San Diego advocacy manager Maya Rosas issued this statement: “It’s time to prioritize safe street design,

San Diegans should be able to walk without risking their lives. We can’t continue to do business as usual.” She noted that the pedestrian deaths accounted for a third of all traffic deaths in 2016, an increase from 93 pedestrian deaths in 2015, and just short of the County record set in 1994 of 103 deaths.

Hillel Center for Jewish Life up for City Council vote Oct. 2 The proposed Glickman Hillel Center for Jewish Life near UC San Diego is on the City Council docket Monday, Oct. 2 for a final vote. It was supposed to be voted upon — which would give the green light to construction — in July, but was postponed due a noticing error. The facility would be located on a triangular lot across from UC San Diego bounded by La Jolla Village Drive, La Jolla Scenic Way and La Jolla Scenic Drive North and serve Jewish students with counseling, events and holiday observances. The proposal received unanimous approval from the San Diego Planning Commission April 27. The Hillel project has been in development, and subject to opposition from various La Jolla community advisory boards, for 17 years. Issues include the proximity of the center to the nearby residential neighborhood, and the influx of students and cars it would bring. More information: ucsdhillel.org/glickman-hillel-center

560 young La Jollans finish Summer Reading Program More than 500 of La Jolla’s avid young readers completed the La Jolla Library’s summer reading program this year — a 15 percent increase over last year. As part of the City of San Diego’s summer reading program, the La Jolla Library presented educational and entertaining events, and encouraged participants to read 10 books (or read 10 hours for the littlest readers). After the first 10 books, participants got a prize bag, and for every additional 10 books, participants got to take home a book. Youth librarian Angie Stava reported that 3,295 people attended 92 programs over the summer, and 1,046 babies, kids and teens signed up for the reading program with 560 of those finishing and receiving their prizes. “Something special about this year is that we had several students that read over 100 books each this summer, so they were happy to get to take home a whopping 10 books or more as a part of their prizes. La Jolla has some very busy readers!” she said. “Every year that we can encourage children and families to read together, to start learning to read, or to fall in love with reading is considered a success. I believe we reached that benchmark, but we are always

looking for more ways to involve more kids in the fun to be had at the library over the summer. I’m already looking forward to next year!”

Planners to review Torrey Pines Road Corridor Project, Sept. 7 Details of the Torrey Pines Road Corridor Project Phase 2 are scheduled to be presented at the 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 7 La Jolla Community Planning Association meeting at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. The Phase 2 will create continuity of the sidewalk; add buffered bike lanes on both sides of Torrey Pines Road between Prospect Place and La Jolla Shores Drive; install a pedestrian-activated crosswalk known as a HAWK signal; build a stabilizing wall along the nearby hillside; and lay a flat, decorative median. Work is set to begin in the coming months and be complete by Memorial Day 2018.

La Jolla Shores Permit Review group moves meeting date La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee (PRC) — which reviews all applications for discretionary or other permits within the La Jolla Shores Planned District, and submits its comments or recommendations to the La Jolla Community Planning Association — voted to move its monthly meeting time and date during its Aug. 22 meeting. As of the November PRC meeting, the board will meet 4 p.m. third Mondays. The September meeting will be at the previously scheduled time of 4 p.m. Sept. 26 at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. The move comes largely to allow PRC more time to submit their findings to La Jolla Community Planning Association.

LINDA ANDERSON

Can’t we do better than stained sidewalks and soiled trash cans? In 2015, we purchased a condominium on Coast Boulevard thinking La Jolla was a well-kept area with a reputation for being upscale. After spending the last two summers here, it’s been a real eye-opener to see the lack of maintenance, much less cleanliness, in a town called “The Jewel.” It’s surprising to watch its deteriorating condition, comparing it to what La Jolla was a few years ago. The sidewalks are very dirty and the town is loaded with unsightly trash receptacles. As evidence, I’ve included many photos of familiar sights around La Jolla. No wonder there are empty retail spaces in the Village, considering the lack of appeal along the streets! Are there any ideas for addressing this problem? Who could I contact who could actually do

Here’s a 5-point plan for ‘fixing’ La Jolla Our family has been visiting La Jolla for nearly 20 years now. We’ve spent our summers and early falls here, with periodic “off-season” visits. La Jolla has been one of our favorite destinations. Unfortunately, we have observed the continuing and escalating decline of public and residence maintenance. Additionally, the public roads, including those with the highest volume of vehicles, have deteriorated to the point that personal safety is at risk. Here is a sampling of concerns that we offer to the City Council for consideration: 1) In far too many instances, vehicles are permitted to park right up to the corner of a street, placing drivers who are turning onto a major road, e.g. La Jolla Boulevard, in distress. Side roads near WindanSea that intersect with La Jolla Boulevard have highly obstructed vision when turning onto the boulevard. Visit a street like Kolmar to get an “on the ground” assessment of the danger. 2) Returning to WindanSea, the major ocean-side road, Neptune Place, requires long-needed attention. There are no Speed Limit signs along Neptune, beginning at Palomar Avenue and extending both to the end of Neptune. As a result, far too many cars are being driven at very dangerous speeds. Speed Limit signs and/or Drive Slowly signs are desperately needed on Neptune since it’s a high-density traffic area with narrow roads and plenty of pedestrians. 3) Trash collection in the old downtown, the “high-end” downtown, and Bird Rock needs to be stepped up. Check out the planters filled with trash in front of the closed (for two years) Sushi/Oyster restaurant on the west side of La Jolla Boulevard just as you enter Bird Rock. Each time I pass the restaurant (3-4 times per week), the planters/trash containers are overflowing with garbage. 4) Public and residential landscaping are far too often unsightly and in need of attention. Some

something about this “neglect”?

Editor’s Note: In November 2016, a Maintenance Assessment District (MAD) was established for The Village to be administered by Enhance La Jolla. This 501 (c)(3) group will receive funds generated through property owner assessments and use them for ongoing efforts to enhance the community, including landscape maintenance, street and sidewalk cleaning, litter and graffiti abatement, and additional trash collection. Enhance La Jolla will be responsible for preparing the annual draft budget, retaining contractors, and overseeing and administering the maintenance services. Property owner assessments will begin being collected in late 2017 and MAD services will begin in January 2018. For more information on the people and projects behind this effort, visit enhancelajolla.org

homes, even in so called “upscale” areas of La Jolla, display dead and/or overgrown trees and plants, while others seem as if they’ve not received any attention what so ever. Perhaps a City code requiring landscape maintenance and yard clean-up should be considered by the City Council. This has worked very well in other cities. 5) Many of La Jolla’s streets and sidewalks are in dire need of re-paving and re-lining. Also, the curbs in many areas need to be re-painted (red, green, blue, etc.) The red paint on the WindenSea beach-side curb is barely visible. These observations are offered in the spirit of cooperation, improvement and with an appreciation of budgetary concerns. Bob Bendotti

Let’s bridge Scenic Drive North and South I agree completely with Jane Dyson in her letter last week concerning completing the bridge connecting the two Scenics. I’ve been here for 35 years and have been a member of the La Jolla Town Council and have heard the “old timers” say they worked to limit traffic in La Jolla including preventing egress from I-5 south (what an inconvenience). The houses that overlook La Jolla Parkway are so far above the road that a bridge would not block their views. It’s time to do it. John Beaver

La Jolla’s murals enrich the community Referring to the letter in last week’s issue about the public art in La Jolla, I would like to forward related comments from California Today and The New York Times: California has been enjoying something of a public mural boom. Over the last five years, Los Angeles, Santa Monica and Sacramento, among other cities, have each transformed dozens of formerly drab outdoor walls with colorful

artworks. Evan Meyer, the founder of Beautify Earth, a nonprofit that promotes public murals, attributed the movement in part to a growing appreciation for murals as an antidote to blight. Public art, he said, represents a win not just for the artist and the community, but also for the property owner that provides the canvas. “It’s being recognized as something that can drive increased foot traffic,” Meyer said. “Because it’s not just a box anymore. It’s like, ‘Hey, we’re the building with the pelican on it.’ ” This month, the historic Warner Grand Theater in San Pedro added a playful scene depicting underwater musicians to one of its exterior walls. The artist, Kent Yoshimura, said he was fascinated by the idea that, in contrast to a gallery setting, countless passers-by would encounter the mural. At 111-feet by 55-feet, it can be seen from several blocks away. “There is so much beauty in that open communication and that open relationship that artists can have with the public,” Yoshimura said. “I think it’s just fantastic.” I have taken The Murals of La Jolla tour offered by The Athenaeum and I think these murals have contributed to our community. It helps to have someone interpret any work of art and I suggest La Jolla Light readers take the tour. James Hancock Editor’s Note: Mural tours are offered the last Wednesday of each month. The next one begins at 5:30 p.m. Sept. 27 from The Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, 1008 Wall St. The tour is free, but reservations are requested at (858) 454-5872.

Some ‘unfit’ murals need to be replaced I heartily endorse the sentiments contained in Diann Morgan’s letter to La Jolla Light (Aug. 24), regarding the three “unfit” murals painted on various walls in downtown La Jolla — “Blah, SEE OUR READERS WRITE, A20

Support needed for Barbara Bry’s vacation rental proposal ■ Last week, a three-day-long bachelor party raged at the house next door. The very next day four families, each with children, held a reunion in the same home for two days. Such short-term rentals have been going on non-stop at a house in the Country Club area for since June. Trash bins overflow in the street, police are called when parties spill into the neighborhood at 3 a.m. (with no response until 7 a.m., if at all), illegal parking blocks ambulances and residents alike. The City Attorney has declared short-term rentals to be illegal in single-family residential zones, but there is no enforcement by the City. The police have a Community Assisted Party Program (CAPP) for such properties, but under a new interpretation of the program it is nearly impossible to get this designation assigned. (Note: CAPP identifies locations that host loud and disturbing parties on a chronic basis.) We have owned our home for more than 40 years never thinking we would want to sell until investors from Northern California started operating an AirBnB mini-hotel next

OPINION door. This could happen on any street in La Jolla. City Council member Barbara Bry’s plan to limit short-term whole-house rentals in the City to minimum 30-day stays is a reasonable step to restrict the destruction of traditional neighborhoods La Jolla. Scott Pidd ■ We live across the street from the house Scott Pidd refers to in his letter (which he shared with me). He provides an excellent description of the situation we have been dealing with for the past four months. I would only add that on average there are 150-200 different people staying in this house every month. But according to the City of San Diego, the owner of the property is not in violation of any City ordinance. We support City Council member Barbara Bry’s proposed short-term vacation rental ordinance. The proposals of other Council members, such as Council member Chris Cate, do not begin to address all the issues involved with this ugly situation. Dick Freeman

LJHS track should be shared with community I would like to know why La Jolla High School has kept the track and field closed to the public? First, Principal Charles Podhorsky said it was because taxpayer money wasn’t used to fund refurbishment of the track, then he said it was litter and general misuse of the facilities. Next he said the public was jogging on the inside lane of the track and wearing it out. His most recent excuse is a need for a security guard to watch community members jog and walk around the track. However, taxpayer money did pay for the

track. The tennis courts are open to the public and haven’t been vandalized or misused. Now there is someone to keep an eye on the troublesome and pesky senior citizens who wear out the inside track lane, and they are still kicked off! It’s time Principal Podhorsky acknowledges that there isn’t any real justification for closing the field and this town has very limited spaces for people to exercise and throw a ball around. I think this whole situation is sad, shameful and unnecessary. I would have expected more from a public school principal. Adam Lazzari

Who’s responsible for cleanliness on Torrey Pines Road? I am a La Jolla resident who often bicycles through the Torrey Pines Road canyon between Ardath Road and La Jolla Village Drive. The amount of trash on the side of the road in this particular section of Torrey Pines Road is appalling. It reminds me of what you could see along a road in a Third World Country. I don’t know who is responsible for picking up this trash, but clearly, something must be done because for sure it is not the right welcome for anyone who is coming to visit our beautiful La Jolla. Guido Baccaglini

Please, let the sleeping sea lions (and seals) lie For centuries, we humans have polluted our oceans by garbage, sewage and oil spills.

www.lajollalight.com People who live in La Jolla are in a position to repair a fraction of our actions by allowing a few sea lions to make their home in less than a mile of the 70 miles of beaches in San Diego. Not being able to swim occasionally in that part of the beach — and a sporadic odor — seem like a very small price to pay for this kindness. The members of the San Diego City Council in 1993, who thought of this idea and implemented it, belong in the Elysian Fields. Alireza Tafazoli

Correction Due to an oversight, the word “not” was left out of a quote in the story “La Jolla Permitters deny Dolphin Place project.” The full quote from community representative Phil Merten should have read: (The La Jolla Community Plan states) “To maintain and enhance existing community character and ambiance and to promote good design and visual harmony, in the transitions between new and existing structures, preserve the following elements: bulk and scale (to be consistent) with regard to surrounding structures from the public right of way,” he read. “This project simply does not comply with the Community Plan.”

Channeling Water Wisdom

They’re making waves at SIO’s Hydraulics Lab

BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT You may never have heard of the Hydraulics Laboratory at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, but it’s a spacious redwood building just off La Jolla Shores Drive that you’ve probably driven by dozens of times. Designed to conduct large-scale experiments studying water in motion, it features a 120-foot-long Glass Walled Wave Channel that generates waves and currents and overlooks a much larger-scale wave channel called the Pacific Ocean. The 15,000-square-foot building, with its wavelike ceiling topping out at 26 feet, originally opened in 1964, and has been a welcoming space for faculty, students and researchers ever since. The “HLab” was established by Douglas Inman, Professor of Marine Geology at UC San Diego. Inman, a scientific pioneer and coastal activist who died last year at the age of 95, is considered the founder of the field of coastal oceanography. A few weeks ago, I toured the space with Douglas Alden, the HLab’s Technology Application Group Lead. He also happens to be Data Designer for “The Wind Garden,” the new sonic art piece just added to UCSD’s Stuart Collection. (You can read it online at lajollalight.com) Alden began working at SIO 30 years ago, when he was a student at UCSD. Starting in an engineering position, he branched out into coastal studies, climate research, meteorology and physical oceanography. He is currently involved in projects in Central

and Northern California, dealing with rivers, reservoirs, and helping California prepare for upcoming problems created by climate change. “SIO is a wonderful place,” he said. “I’ve been exposed to so many fields of study and worked with so many great scientists here ... and I can bike to work.” (He is also one of the founders of Bike/Walk Solana Beach, and rides his bike to the HLab every day, rain or shine.) Another new project he’s part of is the HLab Maker Space, meant to build the next generation of scientists by offering them ample room, “cool tools” and exposure to faculty and researchers at SIO and UCSD. It’s expected to be up and running next month. “I don’t have a day when there’s not something interesting going on,” Alden said. Over the next few years, thanks to a $4 million grant from the National Science Foundation, the Hydraulics Lab will be building a very cool tool to add to their collection: a state-of-the-art Ocean Simulator. “It will allow us to accurately simulate the air-sea interface, not just waves, but the biology, chemistry and atmosphere that control what we experience in weather and climate,” said HLab director Grant Deane. A grand opening of the Maker Space will take place at the beginning of 2018, and group tours of the Hydraulics Laboratory can be arranged.

Life Tributes

Everlasting memories of loved ones

Elizabeth ‘Betty’ Knox January 9, 1922 - July 15, 2017

La JoLLa — Elizabeth (Betty) Knox, age 95, passed away peacefully at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California, surrounded by her family on Saturday, July 15, 2017. She was born on January 9, 1922 in Forest Hills, New York to Frederick C. and Emma (Grauerholtz) Wissel, and was the youngest of four children. Betty attended Hunter College in New York and was employed as a model for R.H. Macy & Company in New York City. She moved to La Jolla in 1951 while married to Rudolph T. Haas, II. The marriage ended in divorce, and in 1956, she married James Henry Knox, originally from East aurora, NY. From then on, she embarked on a life filled with philanthropy and travelling the world with her beloved husband and family. although no destination was too

far away, their preferred retreat was always the legendary Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Honolulu. Betty’s dedication to philanthropy was guided by her asking, “are we being good ancestors?” She served as the president of the Board of Trustees of The Bishop’s School in La Jolla, and was also a member of the Board of Trustees at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, where she was

honored with the Dr. Jonas Salk award of Congress for her service. Soon after, she was seated on the Board of Regents of California Lutheran University in Thousand oaks, Ca. In 2007, Betty joined the Board of Trustees of Manlius Pebble Hill School, her late husband’s alma mater, located near Syracuse, NY. Her special interests included international travel, watching professional tennis, NFL football and horse racing. She also enjoyed attending horse shows where her daughters were competing. Her favorite and most memorable project was as chairwoman of the “Stadium Premiere” party, celebrating the grand opening of the new San Diego Stadium in 1967. The gala event benefitted Children’s Hospital, and Jimmy Durante attended as Honorary Chairman.

Betty is survived by her son, Ted Haas; daughters, Julie and alice Knox; granddaughter, Sarah Knox Haas; and nieces, Dr. Judith (George) Farr, and Rosalind Johnston. Betty was preceded in death by her sisters, Frances, Emma, and Florence; and her husband, James H. Knox. Betty’s elegant style and gracious manner endeared her to family and friends. She will be greatly missed. Funeral services were held at Baker Memorial Methodist Church in East aurora, NY, and at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo. a celebration of life service will be held in St. Mary’s Chapel at the Bishop’s School in La Jolla on Saturday, September 16, at 11:00 am. a reception in the school’s alumni Courtyard will follow.

The Nutty Professor: Back-to-School Eats

La Jolla Cultural Partners

he other day I found myself in the crosshairs of a heated argument between a mom and her school-age children in the supermarket aisle of jams and nut butters, which struck a chord of déjà vu with my daughters a handful of years earlier. Both sides were stalemated over the controversial back-to-school staple — peanut butter. Although, I gathered from the dialogue that the kids did not have any peanut allergies, the mother still stood firm against the spreadable legume. Alas, they all stormed out of the market without even reaching a culinary compromise. Peanut butter sandwiches, whether paired with jellies, preserves, honey or bananas, have been the favorite, iconic, rib-sticking American lunch for generations. Over the past few years an increasing (and alarming) number of deadly peanut allergies, particularly among children have emerged, making the legume persona non grata at schools since the mere inhaling of the aromatic oil and airborne peanut dust have been found to trigger a reaction. Researchers from Australia claim to have made a major breakthrough in a peanut allergy cure with a trial study using an oral probiotic peanut immunotherapy for

children. These kids who were previously peanut allergic or sensitive were able to tolerate peanuts after several months of treatment. Allergies aside, the conventional peanut crop carries a heavy pesticide load. Even organically grown peanuts are vulnerable to the formation of a carcinogenic mold called aflatoxin that forms on the legume both preand post-harvesting. So we can see why the mom at the market was adamant about throwing peanut butter under the school bus. If the tiny taste buds in your household insist on peanut butter, there’s a quick fix. Simply blend a few drops of natural, and where possible, organic peanut-flavored extract (that does not contain any legume or tree nut substances) into a neutral-flavored nut or seed butter like tahini, and you have created a healthier mock peanut butter version without offensive allergens, molds or pesticides. Tahini is a smooth and creamy paste from pulverized sesame seeds, one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, that also resembles peanut butter in texture, taste and color. These petite precious seeds are blessed with a load of protein (5 grams per ounce), amino acids and fiber, along with vitamins and minerals, including copper, magnesium,

calcium, folate, zinc, iron, Vitamin B6 and phosphorous, translating to more than a dozen health benefits, including amping up blood, bone, heart, respiratory and digestive health, and warding off Type 2 diabetes. Almond butter is another Herculean peanut butter substitute, delicately flavored, whether crunchy or smooth, containing monounsaturated “friendly” fats, and a rich store of protein, fiber and phytonutrients, such as, bone building magnesium and calcium, antioxidant, immune enhancing alpha-tocopherol, cell regenerating Vitamin E’s, and nerve calming, energy enhancing B’s. In Japan teens have a yen for a high protein and calcium concoction of dried sardines and slivered almonds, while in India almonds are considered “brain food” for developing children. Yet walnuts that coincidentally resemble miniature hemispheres of the brain are loaded with plant-based omega-3’s, aka alpha-linolenic acid that increase cognitive functioning similar to those from animal sources by keeping the brain lubricated and lively. Soporific walnuts also bolster melatonin levels, one of the sleep regulating hormones. So munch a cracker or biscuit slathered with some scrumptious walnut butter (see recipe) before bedtime for some quality zzz’s, making us all well rested and alert in the morning. Or spread some silky, nutrient rich seed butters, whether pumpkin (pepita) or sunflower with loads of protein, heart-healthy fatty acids, iron and zinc on a whole wheat or multi-grain bagel, tortilla, baguette or slice of thick-cut bread. Since pepitas are low in allergens they have a wide range of appeal (and tolerance).

Walnut Butter ■ Ingredients: 2 cups of raw, organic walnuts; 2 teaspoons of nut oil (walnut, almond), or avocado or coconut oil; 1 tablespoon of creamy, raw honey; pink salt to taste; a few drops of vanilla extract (optional). ■ Method: Add ingredients to blender or food processor, and blend to desired consistency. Chill in an airtight mason jar until ready to enjoy. Spread on bread of choice with organic fruit preserves, and cut out fun shapes with cookie cutters, fill the hollows of crisp celery sticks, or use as a dipping paste for cut apples, carrot sticks or other favorite treats. — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

It was, honestly, the weather. I was in private practice in Toronto for almost four years. My sister was finishing her Ph.D. at the University of Toronto and she was looking for a job. She thought about moving to the United States and considered places like New York and Minnesota. I said to her, ‘Why would you want to move to a place with more snow than Toronto!?’ We had visited San Diego and loved it, so she applied at UC San Diego. I thought, she’ll never have to shovel snow again, I’m going with her!

“

When I was interviewing for my residency, they ask the question, ‘Why do you want to be an orthopedic surgeon?’ and the Miss Universe answer is ‘because I like to help people,’ but the real answer for me is that I like drills, hammers and screws. I like to build things and work with my hands.

”

— Dr. Rina Jain

What is your specialty?

I do mostly hip and knee replacements. When I was in my residency, we were exposed to all kinds of areas of orthopedics — hand surgery, spine surgery, foot surgery and joint replacement — and I liked the technical aspect of doing joint replacements. It’s actually a lot of fun. We’re like carpenters; we get to build and put things together. When I was interviewing for my residency, they ask the question, ‘Why do you want to be an orthopedic surgeon?’ and the Miss Universe answer is ‘because I like to help people,’ but the real answer for me is that I like drills, hammers and screws. I like to build things and work with my hands. When I was a resident, my attending physician would see patients before and after surgery and it struck me that the best stories came from patients in the total joint clinic. They would come back after surgery and talk about what they could now do that they couldn’t do before. I heard stories of grandparents taking their grandchildren to theme parks, joining step classes, walking without pain — and they were so happy! They are the grateful patients and there is job satisfaction from helping people get back to life and mobility.

What does an average day look like for you?

If it is a surgery day, I’m up very early in the morning, checking up on patients whom I’ve already operated on, examining them with the nurses, making sure they have what they need for the day. … We start operating around 7 a.m., so around that time I will be in the pre-op area answering any last minute questions and then doing the surgeries. Depending on how many surgeries I have that day (typically two or three), that will be the entire day.

What is it like working in a male-dominated field?

It’s been an interesting experience. In the U.S., according to a recent survey, 90 percent of orthopedic surgeons are men … about 5-6 percent are women (the remainder of respondents did not say whether they were male or female).

Why is that?

There is still a perception that orthopedic surgeons have to be strong as an ox and twice as smart. They have to be built like football players and have tremendous physical strength. They do, but a lot of orthopedic surgery relies not on brute

strength, but finesse on how to put things together. It may also be a lifestyle thing. People want to have a balanced life and when you work 110 hours a week — some of that time is on-call and I might be asleep but I’m still on call, so I can do what’s necessary — that’s not really conducive to family life. This can be a challenge. By the time a woman is out of residency, she is probably in her late 20s or early 30s, and those are the traditional child-bearing years. It’s when women want to start a family.

What do you do with your free time?

You’ve got to make time for yourself. I like to exercise, I go to the La Jolla YMCA. I need to keep fit to do my job. Plus, I have to practice what I preach. I’m always telling my patients, no matter what age they are, to go out and exercise. Even if you do 10 minutes, that’s better than nothing. I also love ballroom dancing and I’m a big fan of “Dancing with the Stars.”

What kind of music do you like?

NINA KATCHADOURIAN, Whale, 2014

KELSEY BROOKES, One Pointed Attention, 2014

I like alternative, and I’ve been a fan of U2 since I was a kid.

What are some of the advances in joint replacement?

Robotic joint replacements. Scripps is on the forefront quite a bit, because they have robotic knee replacements and it makes things so much more precise. By being able to do robotic surgeries here, we get patients up the same day and their recovery is so much faster and their joint replacements last so much longer. Normally, when we do a joint replacement, we cut open the skin, get to the bone and use a saw blade to shape the bone and shave away the arthritic or diseased bone and replace it with a metal-and-plastic knee. For me, the most important thing as an orthopedic surgeon is to get it precisely, mathematically right. We’re pretty good at it, but we want to be perfect at it. That’s where the robot comes in. It tells me exactly where to cut the bone, what angle, how much, so we can put the knee replacement at the exact right angle at the perfect configuration. In the old days, 15-20 years ago, we would keep patients with major joint replacement in the hospital for two weeks. Nowadays, these patients get up the same day and a lot of times, they go home the next day or the day after. Most of my patients go home within 24 hours. It’s much better for them.

Experiencing the benefits of a ‘chair’ massage

‘New’ UCSD Center for Integrative Wellness treats guests to a day of ‘fun’ BY WILL BOWEN From the looks of it, the overflow crowd at the Aug. 19 launch party for the new-and-improved Center for Integrative Medicine (CIM) at UC San Diego was having lots of fun and getting healthy in the process at the Sanford Consortium on North Torrey Pines Road. Actually, it’s not quite right to call this a “launch” party, the event was more like firing a booster rocket. The CIM has been in operation for several years but recently added two more centers to its offerings to position itself at a stronger vantage point for

achieving its vision — transforming western medicine! “This is both a launch event and a rebirth of Integrative Health here at UC San Diego,” said managing director Lauray MacElhern, MBA. “With our new structure, now incorporating five distinct centers, we are in a much better position to truly transform health care in San Diego and beyond.” Under the CIM umbrella are: Center for Integrative Medicine, Center for Integrative Education, Center for Integrative Research, Center for Mindfulness, and Center for Integrative Nutrition. At CIM, massage, acupuncture, acupressure, osteopathy, naturopathy,

guided visualization, mindfulness, yoga, Tai Chi, meditation, herbs and wholesome diet plans are offered for clients to use as preventative health care or in connection with their regular treatments and medications. The approach taken is that care-givers should listen to you, get to know you (your past and your future dreams), and then design a personalized approach for your unique health needs. The day started with registration and “smoothies,” blended drinks of pineapple, mango and bananas, or kale, celery and spinach. Next came a relaxing guided meditation by CIM chair Carol Wegner, who afterward introduced cardiologist Dr. Mimi Guarneri, who provided the

morning keynote address. Guarneri talked about her frustration putting stints in people’s hearts only to have them come back for another surgery because they had not improved their diet and lifestyle — the cause of the problem in the first place. Her experience, she said, led her to ponder the question “How can we create health?” Guarneri said that 80 percent of heart problems could be addressed by improving patients’ diets and exercise plans, and getting them to give up smoking. She reported that 1 in 10 people live with diabetes, which is also related to diet and exercise. “The United States spends more on health care than most other countries, but is

Next to speak were doctors Rusty Kallenberg, Daniel Slater and Michael Kurisa. Following them, Erin Raskin, DACM, L.Ac. spoke about how massage, acupuncture and aromatherapy could help patients feel more comfortable, while naturopathic doctor Adam Silberman explained how healthful foods could be used as medicine. Michele Fiorella, M.D., insisted that “humanism” was a core value expressed in all classes taught through CIM. Paul Mills explained that the Center for Integrative Research was looking into Chinese, Tibetan, Ayurvedic and Native American medicine, trying to find valuable therapies and pharmaceuticals. Gordon Saxe, M.D., Ph.D., M.P.H., provided additional information about the healing power of foods in a smart diet. Christy Cassisa described the role mindfulness and meditation plays in health care. The concluding speaker was microbiologist Rob Knight who discussed the importance of bacteria in and on the body, noting that, “The DNA of the bacteria that lives inside your body and on your skin is a better predictor of your propensity for health or disease than your own DNA!” After the speakers, a macrobiotic lunch of yams, sprouts and sauerkraut was served.

Ken Suarez, 73, teaches himself ukulele with guidance from instructional videos on YouTube

Barbara Stabenau, 82, bought an Amazon Echo, which is activated by voice commands, to play her music library.

FROM SENIORS, B1 Connecticut on her iPhone 7, checks in with her daughter’s Instagram account using her Mac laptop and reads the New Yorker on her iPad Air. “I do a lot of stuff,” Klipp says. “I’ve written a children’s book and I’m writing a book for young adults now, too.” The Internet revolution is already 25 years old, so today’s seniors were as young as 40 then and much more likely to adopt than seniors of just a decade ago. “More and more people are moving in here who are used to using a computer,” said Casa de Mañana resident Barbara Stabenau, 82. “When I first came eight years ago, hardly anybody was interested. In fact, they had a computer lab here that they gave up on because nobody was using it.” Stabenau, a widowed former hospital administrator, owns a smart phone and a Mac with a 21-inch screen that she uses for e-mailing friends, catching up on news and laying out the residence newsletter. She also recently purchased an Amazon Echo, which she uses primarily to play her music library, but she says that relationship is off to a rocky start. “Alexa just ignores me sometimes,” Stabenau says, referring to the device’s voice controller.

to YouTube,” Suarez said. “I stared with TED Talks and then I wanted to learn an instrument.” Suarez planned on guitar, but the senior center in his old neighborhood only had a hobbyist group for ukuleles. “So I bought a cheap ukulele,” he said. “I liked the guys. But I couldn’t keep up with them, so I went home and found Ukulele Mike. He sits you down and very slowly teaches you.” Now, Suarez teaches his own ukulele class to fellow Casa de Mañana residents in the chapel every Friday. “It’s more for fun than a serious thing,” he said.

Support group

Casa de Mañana is also home to a weekly class that about 20 residents regard as their own Genius Bar. Every Friday afternoon, 10 or so at a time come to computer consultant Ross Milloy in a second-floor conference room with their malfunctioning laptops and questions about computer viruses. In today’s meeting, one resident asks the same question about his web browser’s home page automatically redirecting that, according to another resident, he already received the answer to two weeks ago. “They have issues with vision and with forgetting things, but they’re basically the same as everyone else,” said Milloy, 65, who teaches the hour-long class on a voluntary basis. “The big issue I see with the seniors is that change is very difficult. So when they come up with a new version of Windows, to adapt to that isn’t as easy as when they were younger.” Even a senior with the latest devices won’t necessarily use them for common programs.

www.lajollalight.com says she’s never Skyped or FaceTimed and is finished with Facebook. She only signed up for it to view photos of her two great-grandchildren, not to have remote acquaintances and people she never liked reach out from her past. “It was just more than I wanted to deal with,” Stabenau said. “Now I just ignore the requests. I don’t say anything. I guess I’m rude about it.” Jack Nunn, an 80-year-old retired furniture salesman from Pittsburgh who enjoys using his computer to illustrate, says he found the three or four times he used FaceTime a colossal disappointment. “We’d have a conversation with our grandchildren and they’d lose interest real quick in staring at the screen,” he said. As expected, the older seniors are, the less technological engagement is likely. Muriel Thompson isn’t on the Internet at all. At 94, she doesn’t feel a need to be, so a perfectly good Dell desktop collects dust in her Casa de Mañana apartment. “I had a couple of friends I communicated with, but I’m the only one left,” said the Sterling, Colorado native, explaining that she never married or had children. (“I never had time,” she said. “I was always too busy doing other things.”) Yet even Thompson is not out of high-tech’s reach. She finds solace in a robotic cat gifted to her by a niece for her birthday in April. His name is Pud (short for Pudding) and he randomly meows, purrs or turns on his back when stroked. “Having something like this helps a little bit,” Thompson explained. “He just sits on my couch with me. Every now and then, when I don’t have anything else to do, I’ll pet him and he’ll tell me that he’s still there.”

Despite heavy use, the La Jolla Bathhouse was torn down in 1924 because the ‘commercial atmosphere’ irked residents.

Remembering When ...

La Jolla Bathhouse Through the Years BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

ug. 28, 2017 marked the 112th anniversary of a fire that took out the La Jolla Bathhouse, considered a treasured resource at La Jolla Cove in the late 1800s. With the end of summer tourist season in sight, La Jolla Light decided to look back on the facility that once was, the fire that took it out, the newer (not necessarily improved) replacement, and the community effort that had it removed. According to “By the Beautiful Sea:

A photographic history of summers in La Jolla 1870-1930” (the accompanying material to a 2008 La Jolla Historical Society exhibition), bathhouses were a common phenomenon of beach towns in the late 19th century. “Bathhouses were built to accommodate growing numbers of beach-goers,” an excerpt from the booklet reads. “Besides lockers and changing rooms, they usually included recreational facilities such as dancing pavilions, tea rooms and restaurants. La Jolla’s beaches —

The first bathhouse offered coffee, changing rooms and sitting areas.

specifically La Jolla Cove — were the most popular destination of any in the San Diego area, frequently attracting thousands of visitors on a single day.” La Jolla Historical Society historian Carol Olten added, “This was something people were presumably doing up and down the coast, and La Jollans were interested in a healthy lifestyle, so La Jolla was a suitable place and the bathhouse was likely seen as a good thing.” The La Jolla Bathhouse, designed SEE BATHHOUSE, B18

Afraid of Spiders?

When Telangiectasia is More than just Spider Veins Telangiectasia is more commonly known as spider veins, the generally innocuous cousin to varicose veins. Whereas varicose veins are the large rope-like weakened veins that carry the greater risk of deep-vein thrombosis, spider veins tend to be the damaged blood vessels just below the surface of the skin, appearing like tiny purple spider webs. But does that mean there’s never a risk with telangiectasia? There are a few circumstances when spider veins may be a symptom of something else at work in the body. One condition is called hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), sometimes

called Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome. This is hereditary and rare, but HHT is a disorder that involves multiple abnormalities in the blood vessels, as well as arteriovenous malformations, including in the liver, lungs, and brain. Patients with HHT may also experience gastro-intestinal bleeding. Normally, blood carrying oxygen to the heart from the lungs is pumped at high pressure into the arteries, which allows the blood to get from the arteries into the smaller vessels and capillaries at a much lower pressure, where the blood will supply the body’s tissues with oxygen. Then, the blood goes from the capillaries into the veins and then back to the heart. However, with HHT, arteriovenous malformations occur, which means that arterial vessels ﬂow straight to the veins instead of through the capillaries, and when it presents near the skin’s surface, they appear as red markings—telangiectases, or spider veins. Because the capillaries act as a buffer, slowing down the blood pressure, the blood ﬂows at a high pressure straight to the veins, which are less elastic and thinner-walled. Because of the extra pressure on the venous walls, blood

vessels are strained and enlarged, which can irritate or compress adjacent tissues. Sometimes HHT can cause frequent and even severe hemorrhage, including nosebleeds. If this is the case, frequently there is also hemorrhaging in organs such as the liver, lungs, and brain. There are different types of HHT, some of which present symptoms earlier, or may involve common bleeding or leakage in different organs. Frequently, patients with HHT develop reddish-purple mucocutaneous lesions, especially in the nose, lips, and tongue. But these lesions also may occur in the upper respiratory tract, the GI tract, and in some cases, even the bronchi, bladder, and vagina. Acute hemorrhage or chronic slow bleeding may lead to anemia. In extreme cases, arteriovenous malformations in the respiratory system—pulmonary AVMs—may cause stroke, high-output heart failure, or cerebral abscess. AVMs of the liver can also cause high-output cardiac failure or cirrhosis. Somewhere between 1 in 5,000 and 1 in 8,000 people have a form of HHT. HHT often doesn’t present symptoms until the teenage years. However, it often goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. In one study involving patients

with HHT, 74% had vascular abnormalities but only 8% showed symptoms. So should you worry at the ﬁrst sign of spider veins? Of course not. But it is important to be alert to what your body is telling you. Most cases of telangiectasia occur because of heredity and normal pressure on the veins. Patients with HHT beneﬁt from early diagnoses, and unless there is cirrhosis of the liver or a severe hemorrhage, rarely is there an effect on lifespan. What you should remember is how much the body is interconnected, organs and tissues working together, with the circulatory system feeding all of them. While you don’t want to become a hypochondriac, it’s also important not to put off any diagnosis or treatment. Keep your doctor apprised of any changes in your body, especially if lesions form or regular abnormal bleeding occurs. And for those with arachnophobia, we understand that while most spiders are harmless, sometimes you still want to get rid of them. At SD Vein Institute, we make it virtually painless and easy to do, even on a lunch break visit.

FROM BATHHOUSE, B14 by famed architect Irving Gill, opened in 1894 and offered coffee and cold drinks to visitors who came to La Jolla from San Diego by rail for a day at the beach. “Images of America: La Jolla,” by Olten, Heather Kuhn and the La Jolla Historical Society, reports that the Bathouse was remodeled 10 years after it opened to provide extended facilities and a more “picturesque profile.” An excerpt from the book reveals: “After the remodel, a new roof and coat of paint improved the bathhouse in 1904. Sturdy wooden stairs allowed access to La Jolla

Cove beach, and swings were erected for further recreation. A small group of boats awaited those who wished to row offshore.” On Aug. 28, 1905, a fire broke out in the kitchen of the original bathhouse while the manager was cooking. The cause was later determined to be a faulty gas lamp. The facility burned to the ground within 30 minutes. The loss of the original bathhouse made way for a larger, more expansive facility to be built. In March 1906, the new bathhouse — considered a lively spot for dancing and dining, similar to facilities found on New York’s Coney Island — opened. According

to “Images of America,” it was considered “much larger and imposing for its time and built on the same site. It contained an auditorium, a swimming pool that was later floored and turned into a dance hall, and restaurant overlooking The Cove. The only facility at the time available for social life and recreation, it became the pride of the small La Jolla Community. … It offered 180 dressing rooms and lockers.” But the proud sentiment didn’t last long. In 1922, the commercial atmosphere and lack of sanitary conditions began to bother citizens, and the beach-facing side of the bathhouse was covered in advertisements. “I think the ads played some part, but

according to our records, the reason stated (that the community bgan to dislike it) is that is ‘most unsanitary and an eyesore,’ ” said Olten. “La Jolla has always had a natural landscape and aesthetic perspective — they didn’t want another Coney Island. So when the proprietors tried to renew the lease, meetings were held and there was community opposition — it kind of sounds like today — and the Park Board refused to renew the lease.” In January 1924, the La Jolla Civic League held a meeting to discuss the bathhouse and by March 1925, it was torn down with no plans for constructing another.

The second bathhouse was larger and offered a pool (that later became a dance floor), restaurant and swings.

For adoption event locations, contact a Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage affiliated agent or office (find a list at coldwellbanker.com). The nationwide adoption weekend is part of the “Homes for Dogs Project,” a three-year campaign launched by Coldwell Banker Real Estate LLC and Adopt-a-Pet.com, North America’s largest non-profit pet adoption website. In just the first year alone, the organizations helped to facilitate more than 20,000 adoptions. Coldwell Banker launched “Somebody to Love,” in April 2017, a national advertising campaign which told the stories of a man and a homeless dog who find each other. It was lauded one of the highest ranking ads of all time by Ace Metrix, and was praised by The New York Times as being a “commercial to love.” Find more information at adoptapet.com/homesfordogs

Renovation ideas for the house If your favorite room is outdated and dingy, a renovation may be all you need to make the old feel new and to fall in love with your home all over again. Upgrading your home can be a big job, and unless it’s part of a pre-move-in plan, few homeowners find it practical (or even possible, from a budget standpoint) to execute a large-scale project. Kitchen: It’s the heart of the home, and it’s where many homeowners sink big money to make upgrades. Kitchen renovations don’t have to require a second mortgage though. Re-facing rather than replacing cabinetry can bring about a whole new look for a whole lot less money. This is a good option when the existing cabinets are still in good working condition and you’re just looking for an aesthetic change. Other small-scale options include swapping out the countertop and sink, changing the lighting fixtures and updating tired floors with contemporary wood or tile. Bathroom: When plumbing is involved, project costs can skyrocket, but there are

some relatively simple ways you can give your bathroom a facelift on a modest budget. For starters, swap out all the fixtures from lighting to faucets. A new vanity is another instant upgrade, whether you opt for an updated version of the original or select a whole new style for a completely fresh look. Living Room: A common space where the family gathers is likely to sustain the greatest wear and tear, and because you spend so much time there, it’s also a room where you’re likely to find a list of things that irk you. Creating a new color scheme is a simple fix that transforms the space, but changing the palette of the walls is just the beginning. Also consider taking your redesign to the ceiling with vibrant colors, creative wallpapers or even exposed beams. Round out the room by swapping out lamp shades, adding vibrant throw pillows, replacing old curtains or blinds, or tying the color scheme together with a new area rug. — Family Features
