Construction Work Back in The Shores

Crews to take over the streets until next summer BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN San Diego City field engineer Steve Lindsay provided the La Jolla Shores Association board (LJSA) with a schedule of construction work in the area’s public right-of-ways through next summer. Summarizing the situation, board chair Nick LeBeouf said, “The next five or six years in La Jolla Shores are going to be what we’ve experienced since 2013, and that’s the reality.” Once the water and sewer line replacement work on Vallecitos Street next to Kellogg Park is

completed, construction will resume once more on the western-most block of Avenida de la Playa, space used by kayak companies to put their crafts to sea. While construction is underway in Avenida de la Playa, Vallecitos Street will be the improvised boat launch. Work crews along Avenida de la Playa will replace a 108-inch recently-installed filter box damaged during a storm last winter and a 90-foot-long, 72-inch-wide water pipe. “It’s going to require SEE CONSTRUCTION, A12

‘My heart told my brain, this is where I belong’

Amanda Hale takes her post as Bird Rock Elementary School principal BY ASHLEY MACKIN When Amanda Hale, now principal of Bird Rock Elementary, was in school, she said she had wonderful teachers and supportive mentors who encouraged her throughout her educational career. Hoping to replicate that experience with teachers and students under her watch, Hale took the helm at the start of this school year. Hale’s arrival marks the end of a “rocky year” of three temporary principals following the departure of Sally Viavada in mid-2015. But as one transition ends, another begins: Having Bird Rock Elementary accredited as a Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM) School and the implementation of the state’s Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Hale said she sees her role as supporting teachers as they bring on these changes, and continue to build a high-level learning environment for the students. “Our focus is looking at inquiry-based learning and encouraging students to think deeper and work collaboratively in real-world applications,” she said. “I feel super grateful I get to be a part of that. We’re doing higher level learning here, not just telling students, ‘These are the facts,’ we’re asking them to think about why things are the ways they are and might be.” Bird Rock was already in the process of becoming a STEAM School when Hale arrived, by bringing on a new science educator to work with other teachers to integrate more of the STEAM concepts into their curriculum. Further, the school is in its first year of rolling out California’s NGSS. “We know students need more in depth of knowledge of the STEAM concepts and how to integrate and apply them to solve problems,” Hale said. “We know the staff and parents felt integrating STEAM is going to help kids establish critical thinking and problem solving skills to be successful.” She said the school is also using “critical math” and

Permitters deny bluff stabilization work, OK home expansion

BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN With a record attendance of 30 people at its Sept. 13 meeting, the Development Permit Review committee (DPR) denied coastal development and site permits for the bluff stabilization project at 417 Sea Ridge Drive. The project, which was first presented to DPR in August, came back to the committee after a code enforcement action by the City of San Diego, which condemned the construction of an unpermitted seawall to remedy a bluff failure that occurred in September 2015 following an El Niño storm. The applicant, who is in negotiations with the city, wants to keep the unpermitted seawall made of a “sand slurry” (a mix of sand and concrete with no additives that erodes at a slower pace than the natural bluff) and remove the structures closer to the cliff along with a retaining wall built in the 1980s. The property’s swimming pool would stay five feet away from the bluff top as a floating structure with no reinforcement other than its own concrete box, while the “sand slurry” protects the house. Trustees questioned the decision to keep the pool. Applicant Michael Morton explained,

The unpermitted seawall on 417 Sea Ridge Drive “(The owner) is aware of the risk that he’s taken by not removing the pool. That’s why the city has required the homeowner to do ongoing monitoring. Because in the future, if there’s any movement in the pool, the city will red tag it, and at that time, it could be removed.” Dave Skelly, the engineer charged with the

monthly pool checks if the project was approved, said his duty would be to report back to the city if any sign of erosion appeared on the structure. He explained that the factor of safety (a mathematical ratio that calculates the force necessary to bring the bluff down) was set at 1.5 for the project, which is code compliant. This was accomplished by unloading the

weight on the bluff, “What’s interesting is that water weighs less than soil, so if you build a pool, you’re actually unloading the bluff.” DPR member Mike Costello pointed out that the geological study the project was based upon used a retreat rate significantly lower than the observed rate. To his concerns, Skelly replied, “I’ve learned that Mother Nature

always wins, so it’s just a matter of time (the bluff erodes), but it’s a matter of time with any kind of shoreline development … anything you do to unload the bluff — a wall or anything — increases the stability.” During public comment, Mary Lynn Hyde presented the view of neighbors, “We understand that the property owner wants to protect the investment as a vacation rental, which according to Zillow.com, rents for $80,000 a month, and having a pool is part of that rental. … We are all in favor of bringing the property under compliance, working with the city by removing the unpermitted work, and restoring the natural slope of the bluff. We do not approve permitting the illegal retaining wall.” She added that in her opinion, allowing the unpermitted wall would encourage other homeowners in similar circumstances to take it upon themselves to fix their properties with the only consequence, a nominal fine. Barry Tashakorian, who said he’s lived in La Jolla since 1970, summarized the opposing view. “Instead of having the bluff damaged more, the property owners are trying to stabilize it, so let’s focus on how we can stabilize it further rather than tearing it all apart. We don’t want this town to go down in value, we want people who are investing,” he said. Kirke Wrench, the neighbor adjacent to the area that suffered the damage and later repairs, insisted the sand slurry not be removed, fearing that further erosion could occur on his property. “I’m also concerned that we don’t really know if it was done according to the plan, or if the drains go all the way to the back,” he said. Costello moved that findings could not be made for the coastal development and site permits, and the motion passed 6-0-1.

More than 30 people attend the Sept. 13 DPR meeting at the La Jolla Recreation Center.

Architect Lisa Kriedman explains the materials to be used for the Steel Residence expansion. “Whoever runs this property has to learn from this action and the statements by the judge and the court, and make a commitment to better maintain this property,” concluded chair Paul Benton.

In other DPR news: ■ Steel Residence: After a long process that has taken years of effort, negotiation, historical designation, designs and redesigns, the Steel Residence at 7991 Prospect Place

obtained a permit for a 5,992-square-foot addition to an existing 833-square-foot residential single-family dwelling. The project includes a three-story addition 63 feet from the street and a 3,500-square-foot basement. Discussion focused on the looks of the proposed roofs for the addition, which in the opinion of DPR members didn’t have the slope that the surrounding Craftsman-like cottages present. During public comment, property owner Melissa Steel told the committee, “This has been a labor of love, and on a high note, my husband and I are still here together. The objective for us was to buy and restore the cottage to give something back to the community, and I feel at the end of the day, we’ve been very thoughtful trying to do all the right things, working to improve the beauty of La Jolla. … This has been years of saving and hard work, so I’d ask that you approve our project to help us restore the cottage and help make La Jolla more beautiful.” After architect Lisa Kriedman redesigned the

overhang of the roofs, adding two to two-and-a-half-feet to them on each side of the house, trustees were satisfied and OK’d the construction project. ■ House of the Future: A project was presented for a “home of the future.” Applicants propose to demolish a property at 6436 Camino de la Costa and build a 5,886-square-foot, two-story residence with a basement, boasting 100 percent sustainability. They plan to install 44 solar panels on the flat roof, which makes the property eligible for the city’s sustainable expedite program. The front and back of the house will be primarily made of high-performance glass with cutting-edge infills between the windows for energy conservation. The approach to storm water involves a reduction in the runoff created by the home, with the addition of planters and artificial turf that will let the rain water infiltrate. The project is up for final review in October. — DPR next meets 4 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 11 at the Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollacpa.org

Merchants survey lacks enough responses to ID desired businesses

BY ASHLEY MACKIN At the Sept. 14 meeting of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (LJVMA), the Economic Development Committee (EDC) provided a report (almost two years in the making) designed to identify desired businesses. The report was intended to identify brand-specific businesses to pursue for the Village, based on community wants and market research. However, a lack of responses led to a lack of enough data for the EDC to confidently proceed. “Our primary goal was to bring new business to the Village, and not just get businesses to open here, but thrive here,” explained member Elsie Arredondo. “The problem was with lack of responses … if you don’t have locals participating with what they want and clear data, you don’t have a lot. We didn’t want it to be subjective, what I want or what any one individual wants. Without the tools, we couldn’t pick the types of businesses we could solicit.” In February 2015, she sent out the three-question survey to 2,482 La Jolla and

we realized it was about restaurant options, specifically healthier options,” she said. “We took that information and created a more focused survey for our locals.” Committee member Brett Murphy — who joined Arredondo on the project late last year along with Ike Fazzio — added that for the second survey, the group decided to focus on locals rather than tourists, because they “cannot be relied upon for year-round income.” In the follow-up survey, which was presented to locals through online outreach and manning tables at the Farmers Market in July, 167 people responded. EDC member Fazzio said it was like “pulling teeth” getting people to complete the survey. “We were intending for this survey to lead us to businesses that we could proactively seek out and pursue, but we don’t feel we have enough data or enough feedback,” he said. The four-question survey asked: What kind of casual restaurant would you like to see? What kind of festival would you like to see (music, beer, health, etc.)? What kind of nightlife would you like to see? and the fourth question asked them to prioritize the preceding three. With restaurants given the top priority, the survey found a healthy café-type eatery along the lines of Urban Spoon came out on top. In terms of festivals, the results suggested music festivals were most wanted. Similarly, when asked on the kind of nightlife residents would like to see, the

LJVMA Economic Development Committee member Ike Fazzio greater San Diego residents and tourists. The survey, for which there were 101 respondents, contained three questions: What is your top reason for visiting the Village of La Jolla? List three general business types you would like to see here, and List three established businesses you would like to see. Arredondo noted though there were 101 surveys returned, not all of them had all

three questions answered (each question received between 89-96 responses). Although the data pool was small, the front-runner for desired businesses was restaurants. “Even though we have a lot of restaurants in the Village, what we found in the first survey was that there is still demand for restaurants. It was surprising to us, but then

Economic Development Committee member Elsie Arredondo respondents said they wanted live music venues, specifically a jazz lounge. To give the research additional credence, the committee also gathered city data of current businesses in the area. But they soon realized the information might not paint a clear picture as to what might actually be successful. For example, Murphy explained, La Jolla has a surplus of restaurants but a shortage of motor part supply companies. He determined there are some categories of businesses that may be in excess, but also are in demand, and there are types of businesses the Village may be short of, but might not need. Although it was not part of the initial research project, reviewing the city data provided the EDC with a new and unintended role (as Murphy put it): The Great Recommender. “If anybody wants to

Economic Development Committee member Brett Murphy

enter the La Jolla market, they are going to look at this data and be confused, so we want to be the recommender that people can come to, to shine light on public opinion and what this community is actually like,” he said. “We want to provide not just a statistical grasp, but the understanding we have of the Village.” Shifting course to reflect their recommender role, the committee will create a data-based document and eventually a marketing package to post on the La Jolla Village Merchants Association website, along with a direct e-mail link to someone that could answer questions about the Village. “This is meant to be a living, working document, something we can hand off to the next committee to take to the next level,” Arredondo said.

■ A Halloween haunted house? The trick-or-treating event, Pillage the Village, which will be 3:30 p.m. Halloween (Monday, Oct. 31) could include a haunted house this year. The annual event includes Girard Avenue businesses giving out candy, a costume contest, and related activities. But for this year’s event, LJVMA executive director Sheila Fortune said she was meeting with potential hosts for the haunted house, and thought it could be for slightly older children who might not be interested in trick-or-treating. More details will be presented at the next meeting.

■ Art windows on pause: After an initial presentation on the Fill It With Art project (FIWA) from Tom Lamprecht, Chief Creative Officer for brand marketing and art curation firm Plume21 at last month’s meeting, Lamprecht said he received negative feedback from artists upset by the idea. The project would have taken empty storefronts and filled them with temporary, moveable art pieces. Although LJVMA members representing the art community were willing to work with Lamprecht to make sure there was no competition with local artists or galleries, there was enough backlash for the project to be suspended.

FROM NEW PRINCIPAL, A3 make them feel and why the character might have taken a certain action, teachers are asking students to infer things and making connections to their own lives.” Noticeably excited, she said, “I feel fortunate to be a part of what’s happening in this innovative school.” Hale comes to Bird Rock by way of Orange County, having been a principal there for almost 10 years. She grew up near Pasadena, and said she had the “privilege” of going to a small school. “My relationship with my teachers was positive and they genuinely believed in me as an individual and as a scholar. I struggled in math and had teachers who were willing to support me. That initiated the idea to be that person for someone else, someone to help them overcome challenges and be successful,” she said. A graduate of the University of Redlands, Hale said she originally was going to be a lawyer, but a community service requirement (luckily) got in the way. “We had to complete a certain number of hours performing community service, and I volunteered in a classroom. In helping a child learn to read, my heart told my brain this is where I belong.” She earned her teaching credential and began teaching first and second grade. “I loved teaching, but never thought I would go any further than that,” she said. Imagine her surprise when a principal suggested she get her administrative credential. “I didn’t even mean to be a teacher, so I never thought I would be a principal,” she

joked. But after receiving a scholarship for her doctorate in education at Claremont Graduate University, she studied to become an administrator. “I wanted to look at how I would help the teachers and students be the most successful they could be,” she said. “I became an (assistant principal) and I cared for my teachers because these are people I worked with, they were my colleagues. “My intention was never to continue on a leadership path, I just wanted to support teachers so they could help more children.” But soon, she was offered a chance to be a principal at an Orange County school, and took it. Now leading Bird Rock Elementary, Hale said she spent the first few weeks of school getting to know the teachers, assistant teachers, parent volunteers and students. “I want to find out what’s working at Bird Rock and what do we need to work on. I always ask my staff, ‘How can I help you to strengthen your skills’ and ‘What do you need from me?’ ” And for Hale, creating a supportive environment is personal. Her four-year-old daughter, Sawyer Grace, will attend Bird Rock next year. “I feel joy in my heart in working at a school my child is going to attend, people don’t always have that opportunity. I’m very grateful my child is going to have the type of education she is going to have here,” she said. “My goal is to continue to build on that valuable foundation that has been set up here to put together the things our kiddos need to be more engaged in learning.”

FROM CONSTRUCTION, A1 significant work, though it’s expected to go quickly,” Lindsay said. To prevent the system from collapsing again, the city will install filters along the way to prevent large pieces of debris from traveling all the way to the filter box. Once that’s done, constructions crews will move to La Jolla Shores Drive where another filter box will be installed. “We needed to figure out something that would allow the water to flow through during a larger storm. There’s just not enough room in Avenida de la Playa to put this type of thing off line, so the place that makes sense for it to be most effective is further down. It will collect all the pollutants and send the water on its way,” Lindsay explained. Trustees calculated that once work is finished on Avenida de la Playa, San Diego Gas & Electric will underground utilities, and so the streets of the business district will be filled with construction work all the way until next summer’s construction moratorium, when streets are cleared for tourists and beach-goers. Lindsey pointed out the inconvenience of doing this work during weather-event season. “I’d rather do it during the dry season, but it’s not an option because in the summer everyone comes to The Shores, so we have to deal with the weather events as they occur,” he said. During the discussion, board member Izzy Tihanyi suggested the city install a smooth transition from the road to the sand at end of Avenida de la Playa. “We see vehicles getting stuck there all the time,” she explained. Lindsay welcomed her suggestion and replied that construction plans include a solution to

the problem, “We have to be careful not to make it look like a ramp, because it’s not an American with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramp, but at the same time, will have to make sure that it goes down smoothly.” Lindsay told board members the city will work around the community events scheduled in the area in October.

In other LJSA news: ■ Ranger report: For the first time since the shoreline park ranger service (with four officers stationed along 13 miles of coastline parks from Sunset Cliffs to Torrey Pines) was created in January, Senior Park Ranger Mike Ruiz was in attendance to file a report. He said from Memorial Day to Labor Day, shoreline rangers issued eight parking citations and reported six infractions and two misdemeanors (one for alcohol consumption and one for illegal camping). The rangers made 195 dog violation

contacts, 38 alcohol, 43 smoking, 15 soliciting, and 32 tent-related contacts, and a total of 126 parking enforcements. “In La Jolla Shores alone we could sit there spending out whole day doing parking citations, but we want to be more efficient with our time, particularly when we have 13 miles of shoreline to patrol,” Ruiz said. He added that the park rangers role fits perfectly between the lifeguards “who are busy saving lives,” and the police “who take care of major crimes. We don’t carry weapons, we are public service officers, not law enforcement officers. We can issue citations, and we do, but since it’s a new program, there’s a big focus on education, because since there hasn’t been a big enforcement component in the parks for quite a long time, we are spending a lot of our time teaching people the rules.” ■ Fall events: Art at La Jolla Shores will take place 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 25 at 2223 Avenida de la Playa.

‘Ironwoman’ overcomes back injury to run 10th triathlon

Kathleen McCartney finishes the 2013 Ironman edition.

COURTESY

BY MARÍA JOSÉ DURÁN It was 1982 when La Jollan, then 22-year-old Kathleen McCartney, participated for the first time (and won) an Ironman triathlon. “That was one of the highlights of my life and really set a course for the rest of my life,” she said in an interview with La Jolla Light. Oct. 8, she will participate in her 10th Ironman at age 67 in Hawaii, the birthplace of the worldwide-sought race. Ironman is a triathlon consisting of a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride, and a 26.22-mile marathon run in that order without a break. The race first took place in 1977 in Hawaii, and McCartney first knew about it as early as 1981, when her then-boyfriend participated (and won) the race. “As soon as the gun went off and I saw the swimmers going for the best adventure of their lives, I was inspired and decided to be one myself,” she explained. Almost immediately after, she started training for the 1982 race and confronted a life transformation. When she began training, her mindset was to finish the race, but, she said, “As my training progressed over several months, I thought, ‘Wow, I could do more than just finish!’ and that was an incredible transformation,

Kathleen McCartney to see yourself as a non-athlete, and one year later, have a chance of winning the Ironman race.”’ And she won indeed, after passing San Diegan Julie Moss, who fell to the ground yards from the finish line. As the Ironman official website reads, “Moss staggered, then stumbled, before falling to the ground. While she was crawling to the finish line, McCartney passed her for the win, but the dramatic footage aired by ABC’s ‘Wide World of Sports’ featuring Moss’ heroic struggle,

inspired a generation of triathletes.” After making history, McCartney participated in the race five more times until 1988, and then took a break to focus on her family. Once her kids were grown (six, eight and 10 years old respectively) she came back to the race. “I wanted my kids to know me as the Ironwoman,” she said. When asked what is it about the Ironman race that she loves so much, she answered, “There is nothing like that in the world, it’s magical, there’s something about that race that is so intriguing to so many people. I can’t get enough of it and I’ve always considered it one of the best days of my life.” In 2007, McCartney experienced a ruptured herniated disk. “It was causing me such excruciating pain, that I didn’t know how I could endure it,” she explained. After successful surgery, she would have a normal life, “(Tri-City Medical Center orthopedic surgeon Dr. Neville Alleyne) basically saved my life and gave me a wonderful pain-free life back again.” But normal wasn’t her Ironwoman self, “I was very protective, I thought my days of doing the triathlon were over.” SEE IRONWOMAN, A18

Kathleen McCartney during the biking leg of the 2013 Ironman. FROM IRONWOMAN, A14 After 25 years of marriage, she went through a divorce. “I hit rock bottom and I was looking for something … I thought, ‘What can I do to feel powerful and strong again?’ and I thought of doing the Ironman.” Dr. Alleyne, also a La Jolla resident, specializes in spine injuries. He partnered with a physical therapist to design a treatment that will take McCartney back to a competition level. “In McCartney’s case, her recovery and ultimate return to competition was due in a large part to an intense core strengthening program. Although she was already in good shape and an elite athlete, this core training was more intense and deeper than any regime she had done previously. It helped that Kathleen was a highly-motivated patient,” Dr. Alleyne explained. McCartney added, “I focused on what I could do, swimming and riding a bike, and

walking. I decided to do the 2013 triathlon, and just walk the marathon. Dr. Alleyne made a plan for me to regain my strength and by the time I got to the 2013 triathlon I was able to run the marathon. I ended up running the entire 26.22 miles, and I never looked back.” Her training now, unlike the intense buildup of her early days as an Ironwoman, consists of yoga, Pilates and other core-strengthening exercises, 140 miles of biking, 25 miles of running and three miles of swimming a week. She said that training helped her learn more about herself, “I discovered a source of endurance ... and that I had incredible determination and perseverance. These are things that would have gone untapped throughout my life had I not got into triathlon. I sure hope I go for the 11th Ironman. One of my goals is to do the Ironman with my kids, that’s what I see in my future,” she said.

The wheels from this silver BMW were recently stolen while it was parked on Vista Del Mar in the WindanSea area.

Casing continues in La Jolla neighborhoods After reports last week of possible “casing” scenarios in the Hidden Valley area, similar reports have surfaced from residents in other neighborhoods. Chiefly on the social media networking site nextdoor.com, residents posted (with dozens of replies and comments) incidents of suspects approaching homes, knocking on doors and claiming different reasons for being there, possibly to get a glimpse inside the house. Two individuals came to homes in the Mount Soledad, Torrey Pines Road and Barber Tract neighborhoods and reportedly “harassed residents.” The suspects were described as two African-American men, one heavy, the other thin, both wearing backpacks. In the Hidden Valley reports, the suspects were described as two African-American women, presumed to be a mother and daughter. Police advise that if someone unexpectedly comes to your door, you make your presence in the home known and tell solicitors through the closed door, “We are not interested.”

Wheels stolen from car parked on street The wheels and rims were taken off a silver BMW as it was parked on Vista Del Mar Avenue in the WindanSea area over the weekend. Owner Edward Scheibler said he was “shocked” that the thieves were so brazen, especially in a community with an active Neighborhood Watch. “At about 2 a.m. Sunday morning, my neighbor heard noises on the street and saw the (perpetrators) taking the wheels off my car. They jacked my car up and just took them. My neighbor called the police,” he said. “I didn’t hear anything, but the lights and noises from the police woke me up and I stepped outside and realized they were looking at my car. “It is really scary and what’s worse, the car cannot be towed. I’ve ordered new wheels, but it has to stay there until the new wheels can be put on. It’s literally sitting on steel right now.” Prior to the incident, the Neighborhood Watch sent out text alerts suggesting the area was being cased by people that were wandering the community.

Rest easy at The Futon Shop in La Jolla

MAJOR DIAMOND PRODUCTIONS

The Futon Shop sells not only futons, but sofa beds, pillows, mattresses, platform beds, and mattress pads; all of it non-toxic and chemical free.

BY DAVID L. CODDON Suzanne Diamond is the founder, owner and CEO of The Futon Shop chain (11 outlets in California, including one in La Jolla that opened three years ago), but you could also call her the matriarch. That’s how it all started 40 years ago. “I was a young mother looking for natural bedding for my children,” said Diamond, “and it did not exist. Everything was full of fire retardants. I was kind of a hippie and macrobiotic and was studying the Japanese way of life, and I thought I’d start making futons that were all natural. There was no law saying I couldn’t make a futon for my kids. So I made a mattress and all my friends started wanting one.” So what began as a “little cottage business” in Los Angeles following Diamond’s move from the East Coast became a mini-empire. “We sell over $7 million worth of futons a year,” she said. “We make futons for people’s boats. We make them for bay windows and custom window sills. Even for RVs.” The Futon Shop sells not only futons, but sofa beds, pillows, mattresses, platform beds, mattress pads and more, all of it non-toxic and chemical free. But let’s get back to its futons. “It’s not traditional, not what you would think is a futon,” explained Diamond. “People walk in our stores and go ‘Wow. These are futons?’ It’s a word that has been brutalized by bad merchandising and cheap products.

Futons became very generic and everybody had this cheap, ugly uncomfortable futon as a college kid in the ’80s. They were horrible looking and cheap. But a futon is a Japanese word that means ‘bedding.’ A traditional futon is really a mattress, and that’s what we make. “If you go to the store and sit on one of my mattresses you will understand why we’re in business.” At least 20 percent of that business is e-commerce, Diamond said. Whether the customer buys in-person or online, she added, he or she will find attractively priced products. “We make everything,” she said. “Because we’re a vertical retailer, we make it and sell it directly to the consumer. We can offer the lowest prices. I have dealers who sell my products for four times more than I do all over the country.” The Futon Shop company, headquartered in San Francisco, is completely self-contained, with its own bankers and even its own truck drivers. “We’re quite a large organization for a small company,” Diamond said. “I have employees who have been with me for 20, 30 and 40 years. We are a real family business and we love each other. And we’re happy doing what we do.” The Futon Shop at 7470 Girard Ave. in La Jolla is open 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday-Friday; 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday; and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.

OUR READERS WRITE Time has come to build a traffic bridge in La Jolla

to get to and from work. As drivers come to realize that the increased wait times to cross La Jolla Parkway are due to a systemic change, and not just random increase in traffic, you will see all sorts of unintended problems. Drivers will crowd onto La Jolla Scenic North so that they can become part of the “privileged class” of La Jolla Shores, such as those along Princess Street or Calle de la Plata. East Roseland Drive will become a major thoroughfare. You’ll also see an increase of simple bad driving behavior, like running red lights or sneaking up on the right-hand shoulder or the center bi-directional turn lanes. This all happens already, and it’s going to get worse. Who exactly decided that drivers on La Jolla Parkway should get priority? John Tellew

As a life-long resident, born in the old Scripps Hospital on Prospect, I’ve watched the traffic patterns in our little part of the world get progressively worse. Likely, the heaviest traveled area is that of La Jolla Parkway, Torrey Pines Road and La Jolla Shores Drive. Yes, the City of San Diego has installed new camera sensors to help alleviate the traffic, but even La Jolla Light’s poll question responses on the issue indicate minimal success at best. To my own chagrin, I believe it’s time to build the overpass connecting La Jolla Scenic North to La Jolla Scenic South (think Via Capri). This is the bridge that would go over La Jolla Parkway. Admittedly, it would add some traffic to La Jolla Scenic North. However, the traffic at La Jolla Parkway, Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla Shores and little Hidden Valley Road would benefit greatly. This area is overly burdened by east/west and north/south traffic. Providing more effective The “unfinished projects” article in the Sept. means for the north/south traffic has met its 15 issue of the La Jolla Light overlooked a few time. major community issues that need to be kept in Barry, via e-mail the public eye: short-term vacation rentals, cell phone towers in residential neighborhoods and the seals at Children’s Pool, among other things. I strongly suggest that the Light look into Proposition J coming to the November ballot. This proposal is a con job on the citizens. I see it In response to the Light’s Sept. 15 update on the as legalized theft of the Mission Bay Park (MBP) adaptive traffic signal timing at La Jolla Parkway, cash flow to fund unknown expenses for getting through “the throat” during commute “regional parks,” with crumbs left over for MBP times on “side streets” has become even more — and this is after the minions at City Hall difficult than it was. I routinely sit for 10 minutes misappropriated, without any oversight, now trying to get from southbound Torrey Pines approximately $10 million that had Road across La Jolla Parkway to Hillside/Via Capri accumulated in the MBP account up to 2008. during the evening commute.

Lou Cumming Instead, they’ve used technology as a cover for making a discriminatory decision to favor one class of people (those coming into and out of La Jolla on La Jolla Parkway) over those who have to cross that wretched road. I ride my bike whenever I can (which brings I’ve been going down to the Children’s Pool another set of issues I could discuss), but every morning for more than a year-and-a-half unfortunately most of us who live in La and I count the seals early.

decreased by about 80 percent. I noticed that the new lifeguard station had a floodlight on and the light consumed much of the beach area and the seals were just outside of the lighted area. The lights were finally turned off after about 10 days and the seal counts went back to normal. After I count the seals at the Children’s Pool, I walk down to The Cove and passing Boomer’s Point (the new favorite place for sea lions to haul out now that the gate at the bluffs is working), I had a thought: What if we were to use floodlights on Boomers, La Jolla Cove beach and the bluffs overlooking The Cove with the lights shinning down on those areas, not to disturb the people who are staying and living there, but to make the sea lions uncomfortable? Then through a non-profit, hire a crew of three to work overnight to use pressure sprayers to move the remaining sea lions off these areas. Move them down the road to a part of the coastline that is not used by humans. I have friends on both sides of this issue. I think the sea lions do attract tourism and are fun to watch, but I also have a lot of friends who are swimmers and see the illnesses that The Cove brings — not to mention the health of the lifeguards who have to swim in these waters to save people. This might not be the solution, but we do not need any more studies to figure out how to lessen the pinniped population. What we do need is action and then verification that it works. Jeff Gerwin

Make a difference; save a palm tree! Fellow La Jollans! As you know, the drought and recent water restrictions have taken a harsh toll on our beloved, iconic palm trees. I’m suggesting that in an effort to save as many of these natural beauties as possible, each one of us adopts a palm tree and waters it when we can. If we do this, I believe that in one year we will make a big difference in the beauty of our town. Diane Alpaio ■ WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND?

Vikings Water Polo team gets a ‘taste’ of Navy training

or almost an hour Sept. 15, the La Jolla High School (LJHS) Varsity Water Polo team received a water survival lesson similar to those that Navy officers must master as part of their training. “Basically, you’re teaching Marines how to survive in the water in adverse conditions, so if you fall out of a ship, you know how to inflate your trousers or your blouse, and how to use the least amount of energy in an environment such as the ocean,” explained Navy Corps Captain Grant Cooper, a 2005 LJHS graduate and former player on the school’s Water Polo team. Prior to the Thursday afternoon session, the students had to put gear on consisting of a Marine Corps uniform (blouse and trousers) and heavy boots. Cooper said, “It adds a little bit of adversity when you put on boots, it takes away your ability to swim and makes it harder. Also, we’re going to see a lot more drag going on in the water.” After his graduation from LJHS, Cooper said he played goalie for the Pomona-Pitzer College Water Polo team, joined the Navy where he deployed to Afghanistan, and then became an executive officer at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot. — María José Durán

Multi-institution exhibit pays homage to architect Irving Gill BY ASHLEY MACKIN hen it comes to La Jolla’s history and architecture, there are few more significant players than architect Irving Gill (1870-1936). When it came to giving La Jolla’s early civic, educational and scientific institutions a home, it was Gill who built them. La Jolla Historical Society executive director Heath Fox opined, Gill and his “great patron” Ellen Browning Scripps were “arguably the most influential (people) in the early architectural history of La Jolla.” He explained, “At the time, when Gill came to San Diego in 1893, his early work was Arts and Crafts style, which fit in well with the cottage character of what La Jolla was at that time. But when Miss Scripps discovered him and starting commissioning him, the first building was the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and within 10 years we had the Rec Center, the Woman’s Club and The Bishop’s School.

Who or what inspires you? I am continually inspired by those who overcome obstacles or difficult circumstances to achieve their goals. Julius Yego, Olympic silver medalist, is a great example. He learned to throw a javelin by watching tutorials on YouTube at an Internet café in a neighboring town in Kenya. No coach, no gym and no javelin (he used a stick), but he didn’t let that stop him.

The year of the dog

La Jolla Cultural Partners

hen we’ll look back on 2016, I’m pretty sure we’ll refer to it as The Year of the Dog. The first two months of the year were spent in a constant battle to solve the ever-more-severe allergy issues of our beloved English bulldog, Winston. Just when it looked like we were making headway, he died of a heart attack unrelated to any medical problems we actually knew about. We were truly flattened, Olof even more than I. Although we knew in our heads how blessed we were on so many levels, there was no joy in our hearts for months. We really debated if we wanted another dog. Too depressing when they die. Maybe we were too old. Insanely expensive when they get sick. But slowly we came to the realization that Winston had turned us into a dog household. We were better as a dynamic of three than two. I deeply missed Olof’s constant conversations with Winston. Some weeks ago, I wrote about our first foster dog, Percy, an abandoned Shih Tzu that we were asked to take as an emergency foster. Total mushballs that we are, we fell madly in love with Percy, but ultimately realized we were a bad fit for him.

The dog had three near drownings in our pool. He couldn’t be made pool safe. Percy is now the darling of a pool-less senior citizen complex, and gives a 75-year-old widow a reason to get up in the morning. We were still mourning Percy when the same shelter asked us if we could take another emergency foster, a 6-year-old 15-pound bichon-poodle (biche-poo?) named Lily. She swam like an Olympic champ. We dubbed her Lily Ledecky. But just when you solve one problem, another rears its head. It quickly became clear this dog had been mistreated by men in her life. She charged at them biting their pant legs. The recently departed Percy, on the other hand, may have been a professional drowner, but he loved everyone, people and other dogs included. I also couldn’t help noticing almost immediately that Lily was itching like crazy, obviously reacting to our grass just as Winston did. We were quickly back to the pricey prescription Apoquel. “Sorry,” I said to Olof, “but I just can’t do another allergic dog. We’ll foster her until she’s adopted by someone with less itchy

grass than we have.” Olof showered the wary Lily with love. The fifth day she was here, he woke up abruptly from a nap to find a tongue in his ear. (“And it’s not even Wednesday!” he recalls thinking.) It was Lily, ready to make friends. Meanwhile, I persuaded some of the neighbor guys to come over and feed her treats, hoping to reduce what was probably a justifiable antagonism toward men. I was actually astonished how quickly it worked. Lily had already been in the shelter/foster system for four months. Her previous owner had surrendered her and another dog to the county saying she couldn’t afford their medical care and wanting them put down. Fortunately, a small private shelter adopted them from the county and treated their medical issues. But the two dogs languished on the shelter’s website because they were listed as a bonded pair who needed to be adopted together. Finally, the shelter decided that their best bet was to split them up. Meanwhile, both lived in a multitude of foster homes awaiting adoption. Like Percy before her, Lily had the abandonment issues common to shelter dogs. She was sure we were never coming back, camping just on the other side of the front door when we went out. She’d literally do cartwheels of joy when we walked in. When I took Lily to the groomer two weeks into her stay with us, I think she thought this was going to be goodbye to yet another foster home. She went berserk, refusing to be handed over. I could feel her saying, “But I’ve done everything in my power to make you love me. My best faces!

Inga’s new dog, Lily My total adoration! I’ve followed you everywhere! What does a dog have to do to get a permanent home these days?” My husband is the easiest-going guy you’ll ever meet. He never makes pronouncements or unilateral decisions. So it was somewhat astonishing when, three weeks into Lily’s foster stay with us, I wandered into our bedroom to find him watching TV in bed with Lily sound asleep on his chest, his arms wrapped protectively around her. I hadn’t seen him looking so happy in months. “Just so we’re clear,” he said quietly, “this dog is not going back.” (This from the man who only months ago said “no ‘foo foo’ dogs.”) And that’s when I decided that maybe I could live with another allergic dog after all. — Inga’s lighthearted looks at life appear regularly in La Jolla Light.

FROM IRVING GILL, B1 academic and civic organizations needed buildings — she brought in Gill to build them.” Scripps even contracted Gill to build her house in 1916, now the the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s La Jolla location at 700 Prospect St. Considered a pioneer in early modern architecture, Gill’s signatures include arches, flat roofs, a severe geometric discipline in terms of straight lines and selective use of the arches and rectangular windows, and use of materials like stucco. As part of a widespread collaboration recognizing the architect, several Southern California organizations are presenting different Gill-inspired exhibits: The San Diego History Center, AD&A Museum of UC Santa Barbara, Coronado Historical Association, Barona Cultural Center and Museum, Oceanside Museum of Art, Save Our heritage Organization; and locally, Athenaeum Music and Arts Library, The Bishop’s School, and La Jolla Historical Society with Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD). And yet somehow, Gill is considered “under-appreciated” as an architect. “He really was left in obscurity after he died. He knew Rudolph Schindler and Richard Neutra and other architects that became famous throughout the mid-century. He was influenced by the same people that influenced Frank Lloyd Wright. And he really was a pioneer in some of that early thinking on modern design. So how did that happen? That’s the question we’re trying to answer with this exhibition,” Fox said.

About Irving Gill

Architect Irving Gill

Curated by MCASD deputy director Kathryn Kanjo, the La Jolla Historical Society exhibit has a twofold focus: the artistic aspects of Gill’s early renderings, and the emphasis on nature as decoration. Hanging on the walls of the Society’s Wisteria Cottage galleries, the exhibition will be on view Sept. 24 through Jan. 22, 2017. Fox said, “There are parts of Gill’s practice

■ Irving John Gill was born in upstate New York. He had no formal education in architecture, but apprenticed with firms in New York and Chicago, and worked with Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright, according to a biography provided by the La Jolla Historical Society. ■ The Arts and Crafts Movement was becoming popular when Gill arrived in San Diego in 1893, and his designs for La Jolla’s Windemere (1894) and Green Dragon Colony (1894), and for Balboa Park’s George W. Marston House (1905), reflect this aesthetic. ■ By 1908, his mature style characteristic of early modernism was just beginning and his most important commissions, including several of La Jolla’s mainstays, happened during this period. ■ A bachelor until age 58, he married Marion Waugh Brashears in 1928. Gill died at age 66 in 1936 in Carlsbad. that are really art. Architects these days do everything on computers. Not so in Gill’s days, so all drawings and renderings were hand-done. The other aspect focuses on Gill’s philosophy that (a rendering) should include its relationship to the landscape, whether that landscape is natural or designed. … He took a very simple approach and designed buildings using new materials such as stucco and concrete, devoid of

ornamentation.” Gill reportedly said a building should be like boulder, in that it should sit in the landscape and let the life forms — the landscaping — decorate it. In early renderings of The Bishop’s School, ivy is painted climbing up the walls, predicting it would one day grow up to the signature flat roof. Now, mature landscaping fills in the school campus, casting shadows and providing decoration for building exterior. “This show is about that. It’s about Gill as an artist and the creations he left us and it’s about his thinking of how vital it was to think of architecture in terms of the landscaping,” Fox said. Select pieces show landscaping plans, such as choice of trees and how he envisioned the road and buildings in terms of plant life (now landscaping plans are recommended, if not required, on all new development in La Jolla). The front gallery focuses on Gill’s La Jolla and greater San Diego projects, with the back rooms focusing on Coronado, Oceanside, Los Angeles and more, including buildings that were never built. Some of the hand-drawn plans are signed “For Miss E. B. Scripps” or “Alterations in residence of Virginia Scripps” (for floor plans of Wisteria Cottage). Wisteria Cottage sits at 780 Prospect St. (More at lajollahistory.org)

Maura Walters, Athenaeum executive assistant director, said, “Normally the Athenaeum exhibits contemporary artists, so it has been a treat to work on something a little different. I think the Athenaeum’s Iannelli exhibition will give Gill fans a broader understanding of the community he was working within and the creative atmosphere of his time.” She added, “Margaret and Alfonso Iannelli were a part of the Southern California modernist artist community in the early 20th century — Irving Gill was also a part of this group. Based in Los Angeles, Iannelli Studios produced works of graphic design, fashion, advertisement and commercial projects. The Iannellis also collaborated with Gill on several architectural projects. Several of these sketches, designs and paintings will be on display in the Athenaeum’s North Reading Room.” The Athenaeum is at 1008 Wall St. (More at ljathenaeum.org)

The Bishop’s School

With three buildings designed by Gill, The Bishop’s School will host its tribute next month. Curated by students, the exhibit will be open to the public for one day only: 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 29. “The exhibit is going to include five blueprints of the earliest buildings, which the students cataloged, meaning they described them, measured them, considered their condition and gave them titles. We had those professionally framed,” explained art teacher Nicky Holland. “They will go on view with reproductions of Gill

material (drawings and renderings) related to the campus.” The exhibit will also feature short texts written by students about the Gill-designed buildings, and will be posted around campus. Holland added, “So everywhere you go for a month, without being glaring, you will see information about the architect.” About nine students in the art history club began working on the exhibit last year, starting with reading essays by Gill and determining what they wanted to do. “We only agreed to participate if it was a student-centered exhibition, so the students would come Wednesday afternoons to talk about his work, read his essays and look at the pieces we wanted to display. It’s been a great project and joy to see what is important to them about these buildings,” she said. The students in the 2015-2016 Art History Club include Gabe Cappetta, Jiadi Chang, Allison Havermale, Mary Kimani, Eden McColl, Charlie Michael, Evers Pund, Joseph Ramirez-Cardenas, Allison Zau; Faculty Advisors: Emily Grenader and Nicky Holland; Alumni Contributors: Ashley Chang, Nicholas Stougaard and Pieter Stougaard. The Bishop’s School will also partner with La Jolla Woman’s Club (another Gill-designed building) to train and provide docents for a symposium on Gill at the Woman’s Club on Oct. 20 (time to be announced). The students will arrange tours of the campus before the symposium starts. The symposium will be open to the public, at 7791 Draper Ave. The Bishop’s School is at 7607 La Jolla Blvd. (More at bishops.com)

It’ll Be a Bash! Music school marks first year with record label launch

BY ASHLEY MACKIN To celebrate the first anniversary of the Kalabash School of Music and the Arts’ opening in Bird Rock, the music-makers will present a day of live performances, family art projects and the launch of its record label for teens, noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 24 at 5725 La Jolla Blvd. Kalabash co-founder Natasha Kozaily said the performers will include teachers, students and the Songbird Circle, a group of teenagers who write, perform and record their own compositions. The Songbird Circle, like the school itself, has evolved over the last year, so launching the Songbird Label at the first anniversary seemed a perfect fit. “As a songwriter, I encourage my students to improvise music and compose their own music. Some of my students compose instrumentals and others are interested in writing lyrics and singing. … I had a group of teenagers that were so talented, so we started a free club called the Songbird Circle. (The club still meets 6 p.m. the first Friday of every month.) We get together, we eat pizza and write songs,” she said. Participant Wesley Preis said time

in the Circle has been “an absolute dream” and she looks forward to more experiences. “I don't think I ever would've written a full song or learned to express myself musically if it weren't for everybody involved here that taught me and showed me how. Songbird Circle Club has undoubtedly empowered me, inspired me and helped me make some awesome friends,” she said.

Jack Rickard, who uses the stage name/recording name Jack Taylor, said his favorite part about the songwriting sessions are “how free flowing they are. Not only do we get to develop our own ideas, but also bounce off each other’s. It's a wonderful opportunity to play around with our own creativity.” From the Songbird Circle Club, Kalabash started a

Sister Shyah Preis added her participation in the group has “influenced the way I write and construct music in a very genuine way.

leads to more information and a Soundcloud page with some digital versions of releases that have already been recorded. “They are learning a lot of tools that will help them, because today you could make a record in your bedroom if you know how to use your computer and set up a microphone. They are learning great skills I wish I had been taught, to be honest,” Kozaily explained. “The students take turns editing, playing music, singing, recording, etc. So they are learning how the whole process works.” With the launch of the record label, the Songbird Label Workshop also concludes with participants recording their creations. At the end of this year, the students will produce a physical CD of their work. The Songbird Label workshop starts Sept. 26, and continues 6 p.m. Mondays. The 12-week course for students, ages 12-17, costs $300. Registration is open at kalabasharts.com

Year in Review

When Kalabash opened one year ago, the objective was to teach private music lessons and group art classes, and host workshops and special events throughout the year, with a “community-minded” vision. “We didn’t want this to be a place where people came, took a lesson and left. This was to be a place where people could learn from each other and where the teachers could share cultures and build a love of music and an appreciation of arts in the community,” Kozaily said. She added the space was previously a music school, but when the previous owners were ready to close up shop, they asked if she wanted to take over. “I was a piano teacher here when it was the Prodigy School

of the Arts,” she said. “It was a huge change in my life, but I loved the school and my students. Plus this is something I’ve dreamed of doing since I was a teenager.” Kozaily said she grew up in the Cayman Islands and started playing music when she was 6 or 7, and music has always been important in her life. “When I went to university, I studied in the Wales, in the United Kingdom, and started writing my own songs and music. That for me was the most educational experience in music making – I studied classical piano and that was cool and I loved that, but it wasn’t until I started making my own music that I started to feel empowered and really creative,” she said. One day while in college, she came across the music of her would-be business partner Chad Farran. “I reached out to him on myspace.com, believe it or not. We started talking and I wanted to make a record, but didn’t know how, and he had a studio where he produced music. He thought I was in Cardiff by-the-Sea, but I was in Cardiff, Wales, so he said, ‘you should come check it out this weekend.’ “I couldn’t just hop down, but I was excited about the possibility of collaborating with him. So after I graduated, I came out for a visit and he met with me and made my first record with him.” The twosome have made more records since, and partnered to run Kalabash. “The Songbird Label is our latest collaboration,” Kozaily said. — Kalabash Arts is at 5725 La Jolla Blvd. (858) 456-2753. hello@kalabasharts.com or kalabasharts.com

Cultures clash and results are laughs in ‘Tiger Style’

ike Lew must have had a grand plan for his future after he graduated from La Jolla High School to start a career in the theater. He went to Julliard to earn an artist diploma in playwriting, and at Yale, he earned a B.A. with a double major in directing and writing. His work has appeared in theaters across the nation, and he’s garnered awards nationally and internationally. Lew holds a new play commission from La Jolla Playhouse and has returned with a comedy somewhat based on his own experiences as a second-generation American of Chinese ancestry. Jaime Castañeda directs “Tiger Style!” which playfully takes a poke at overbearing parents and their harsh, demanding style of parenting, identified in popular culture as common among Chinese parents. Jackie Chung plays Jennifer Chen, a doctor who is not at all happy with her life. Her brother, Albert (Raymond J. Lee) is also frustrated with his job. Everyone seems to get a pay raise but him. When the siblings get together they rant and rave that it’s their parent’s fault for

tiger-parenting them because now they don’t fit in. Laughs abound in every scene. Jennifer is hilarious in her tantrums, which she releases with jet plane momentum. Albert is more the pouting kind, but continues to make bad remarks to his boss and other employees. The two decide they should go back to China, and soon they are off on an Asian Freedom Tour Tiger Style! where they hope to meet up with other relatives. Lew feeds lots of laughs to the audience throughout the play, helped along by other characters such as MaryAnn Hu, a cousin and therapist that Jennifer visits. They get along like oil and water. Hu also plays the sibling’s mother, cousin and matchmaker. Nate Miller carries out his different characters — Reggie and a customs agent — quite well. David Shih portrays their father, a military general and three other characters, equally spot on. However, underneath some of the funny situations lies a real problem when someone is not respected for who they are and what they do. It must now be a real joy for playwright Lew to watch

Raymond J. Lee, Jackie Chung and MaryAnn Hu in La Jolla Playhouse’s production of ‘Tiger Style!’ the positive responses from an audience from the same town where he grew up. Judging by the responses from those attending the opening night show, Lew’s conquered the Tiger.

New wellness center comes to La Jolla PDG Health focuses on ‘functional medicine’ BY ASHLEY MACKIN In a new “con-zen-porary” space above Prospect Street, acupuncturist Paul Gamache opened the doors to PDG Health wellness center the first week of July to provide a space for functional medicine in La Jolla, including chiropractic services, acupuncture, nutrition consultations, meditation, cooking classes, specialty lab tests and more. For those unfamiliar with the term, Gamache explained, “ ‘Functional medicine’ is a practice that sees a person as a system of systems, so we look at how things like your environment, sleep patterns, what might being going on in your stomach (which nutrients you are absorbing and which you need) and so on, affect the overall health of the person. Functional medicine also sees meditation, acupuncture and better nutrition as the center to health and wellness, not just adjunct consideration.” Joking that “things like acupuncture are often the last resort,” he said, “People try other things, but as far as how we work, we treat and assess through a very different lens than conventional medicine that gives a deeper insight of the cause of the illness.” Gamache’s practice combines modern technologies with time-tested remedies to address the root of an ailment. “We run advanced lab tests beyond a standard blood test to see what might be going on internally, as well as other modern technologies to

Acupuncturist Paul Gamache of PDG Health. screen and diagnose,” he said. “But the treatment is more focused on natural alternatives.” However, “certainly there are limits to what we do, so we always refer to specialists when needed.” After working at another practice on Fay Avenue, Gamache said he wanted to branch out to a space where he could offer more services. The new facility has two treatment rooms and an open main space with moveable furniture so it can be a reception area during normal business hours, and cleared out for meditation classes. PDG

ASHLEY MACKIN

Health as a collective practice includes chiropractors, nutritionists, internal medicine practitioners, acupuncturists and Gamache said he would like to add a masseuse. PDG Health will also offer classes in mindfulness-based stress reduction, cooking and meditation. In a few weeks, a lunchtime drop-in meditation class will start, with details to be announced. “We’re trying to complete the circle of what people need to be well,” Gamache said. To launch the center, there will be several free introductory events this week. First, a

presentation on yoga and Ayurveda (incorporating breathing, yoga and meditation into daily routines) 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 22. RSVP: (858) 459-5900. On Tuesday, Sept. 27, the center will host an introduction to Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindful and Compassionate Parenting (MCP), 6:30 p.m. RSVP: (858) 459-5900. PDG Health is open Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., with each specialist operating his or her own hours, at 909 Prospect St. Suite 290B. pdghealth.com

A Wabi-Sabi experience comes to Athenaeum

LONNIE HEWITT

From the Athenaeum’s collection: ‘Looking for evidence of character in one’s face for up to an hour can become tedious,’ the excerpt from Allen’s 1975 artist’s book that was part of a 2013 wooden carpet of quotes.

Opening reception Friday, Sept. 23

ROBERTA ALLEN

A page from Roberta Allen’s ‘Thinking About Thought.’

BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT Are you wise to the ways of Wabi-Sabi? It’s a Japanese concept of finding beauty in imperfection and appreciating all phases of the natural cycle — from growth to decay — in nature and art. A pair of new exhibits at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library may well expand your aesthetic awareness, and broaden your thought processes, too. Israeli-born, Los Angeles-based sculptor Galia Linn references Wabi-Sabi in her site-specific installation “Inside,” which is on display not just inside the main gallery but outside on the patio as well. “My sculptures ... are relics, objects that you might find in an excavation,” she writes. “Their purpose is at times clear

and at times mysterious so you may find yourself creating your own narrative around their existence.” Further inside, in the Rotunda Gallery, is “Thinking About Thought,” a selection of drawings and artist’s books by New York-based artist/writer Roberta Allen. The Athenaeum holds the complete collection of Allen’s artist’s books, most created in the 1970s. “People don’t realize how difficult it is to get a complete set,” said executive director Erika Torri, who started collecting artist’s books in the late 1970s, and brought her passion to the Athenaeum. “Sometimes the hunt takes 10 years or more. And we do a publication for each conceptual artist whose collection we own. Ed Ruscha was the first, in 2010, and Roberta will be No. 6.” Roberta Allen, Torri explained, was a special case. “In the mid-’90s, some years after I came to the Athenaeum, a friend

FROM 10 QUESTIONS, B1 What are you currently reading? I am finishing “Career of Evil” by Robert Galbraith (pseudonym for J.K. Rowling). What is it that you most dislike? Disingenuous people. What is your most-prized possession? Photos are the only possession that I would be sad to lose.

One of Galia Linn’s relic-like sculptures gave me his collection of 200 conceptual artists’ books. I saw Roberta’s name among them, but I couldn’t track her down. I found someone on the Internet with the same name, but she was a short-story writer, and there was no easy way to get in touch.” Fast forward to 2013, when local sculptor Matt Hebert proposed creating an exhibit for the main gallery that would feature a large wooden carpet incorporating phrases from some of the Athenaeum’s more than 2,000 artists’ books. “He was only interested in books published in 1975, his birth year, and one of the excerpts he picked was Roberta’s,” Torri continued. “I said: There she is again! I have to follow up! By then, she had just had an exhibition in New York, and she had more presence on the net, and an e-mail address. And it turns out we are the only ones who have the complete set of her artist’s books, all seven of them. We’ve had them almost 20 years, and didn’t even know it!” Encouraged by Torri’s interest, Allen — who had made a career as an author — rekindled her desire to draw, create artist’s

books, and exhibit her work. Some of her first ink drawings in decades will be on display in “Thinking About Thought,” along with the wooden excerpt that started it all, from Matt Hebert’s 2013 piece, “Cover to Cover.” And there’s more: Stop in the North Reading Room to see “The Iannellis In California: Selected Works 1910-15,” part of a multi-site exhibition honoring architect Irving Gill. Chicago-based designers Alfonso and Margaret Iannelli (he created the band shell for the Spreckels Organ Pavilion) collaborated with several SoCal architects of the early 20th century, including Gill.

Vive Pacific Regent!

La Jolla senior community celebrates 25 years BY ASHLEY MACKIN alk about joie de vivre! Pacific Regent senior independent living condo community celebrated its 25th anniversary Sept. 15 with an “Evening in Paris” party. More than 100 residents gathered for cocktail hour, donning their most festive French attire, before a French dinner in the main dining room. Among the residents, a variety of professionals and geographic regions are represented. To name a few: Doctors, lawyers, psychiatrists, college professors,

Fashionable Francophiles Janet Keena and Dawn Shulman

social workers, bankers, health food entrepreneurs, military personnel, engineers, a one-time communist, nuclear physicists, nurses and a former radio star. The nearly 150 seniors that make up the community come from everywhere — the East Coast to the Middle East, the far Rockaways to Chicago and Walla Walla Washington. And all of them like to party. 100-year-old Sherm Smith, one of the first residents, said he moved to the Nobel Drive complex 24 years ago. From its onset, he said, “this was a party place,” with residents throwing celebrations for everything from new arrivals to holidays. “When New Year’s Eve came around the first time, it was a little

strange because we didn’t know how to celebrate. A few of us went in the social room with some liqueurs, and one of us hopped on the piano and entertained for the night.” As for what makes Pacific Regent unique? According to the evening’s emcee, Tom Ryan, “ It’s the people who each day, enrich our lives. Pacific Regent reminds me sometimes of ‘Cheers,’ where everyone knows your name.” A relative “new kid in town” Nadine Finkle, who has lived at Pacific Regent for just under a year, said she appreciates the welcoming staff and that the facility provides transportation and group outings.

NPR’s Ari Shapiro shares news views at UCSD Library dinner BY DOLORES DAVIES More than 160 UC San Diego supporters attended Dinner in the Library Sept. 9, the university’s signature fundraiser for the library, held each fall in the campus’ iconic Geisel Library. This year’s speaker was award-winning NPR journalist Ari Shapiro, who regaled guests with his insights and experiences covering the news of the moment, from the wars in Afghanistan and Ukraine to the Obama White House and the U.S. justice system. This year’s dinner, hosted by UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla and University Librarian Brian Schottlaender, raised a record $212,000, which will be used to support the library’s collections, services and learning spaces. One of the university’s fundraising priorities, said Chancellor Khosla, is to raise funds for the Geisel Library Revitalization Initiative, launched last year after longtime supporter Audrey Geisel donated $3 million to renovate and upgrade the learning and study spaces in the building, which was built in 1970. The renovation includes the eighth floor of the building, which boasts spectacular, panoramic views of La Jolla and beyond. Given the significance of the Geisel renovation project to the campus, Chancellor Khosla announced his commitment to a $1 million matching initiative for the Geisel Library Revitalization Initiative. “It is our hope that the eighth floor renovation will be completed by September of next year, in time for our next Dinner in the Library,” said Chancellor Khosla.

Dinner guests included (back row): Dana Armstrong, Dixie Unruh, UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla, Reena Horowitz and Jeanne Jones. (Front row): Ken Unruh, Don Breitenberg and Sam Horowitz. “Philanthropic support is key to making this possible.” The undisputed highlight of the evening was Ari Shapiro, who was celebrating his first anniversary as co-host of NPR’s “All Thing’s Considered” program. Shapiro also has served as NPR’s international correspondent based in London, from which he traveled the world, covering a wide range of news, including wars in Iraq, Ukraine and Israel,

for NPR’s national news programs. Shapiro, who studied English in college, expressed his love for novels and story-telling, as well as his appreciation for libraries as the places that not only preserve knowledge and history, but also by their very existence create an intellectual and cultural space for novelists and journalists alike. “I promised to talk about the news tonight, but I’d like to do that by way of

fiction,” said Shapiro. “Being in this amazing building, it feels appropriate to pay tribute to those writers whose imaginations have helped us to better understand the world. While I’m a journalist, I majored in English in college and spent my time reading novels, plays, and poetry. I’ve always found that fiction illuminates the world in ways that nonfiction sometimes falls short.” A good example of this, he said, was when

WILL BOWEN

Panelists Sheldon Brown, Jasmina Tešanovic and Bruce Sterling discuss homes of the future at the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination. Irwin and Joan Jacobs with Ari Shapiro he was preparing for a trip to Eastern India earlier this year for a story on climate change, and how it had impacted people living in the Sundarbans. “The Sundarbans are this incredible patchwork landscape of mangrove islands in this tidal estuary where islands disappear and reappear with the tides, and Bengal tigers swim between the islands. A book I had read about the Sundarbans back in 2006, “The Hungry Tide,” by Amitav Ghosh, stuck so vividly in my head that I decided to contact the author,” he said. An interview that Shapiro had with the author painted a much more compelling and authentic picture of what has been happening in the Sundarbans, he said, than a work of nonfiction could have. As a journalist, he often talks to writers and

novelists who help him reflect on the news in different ways. Shapiro also talked about the real disconnect that often exists between those directly impacted by war versus those who have never lived with bombs falling around them. “As Americans, we’ve certainly fought in a number of wars, but we haven’t had to live with a war, day in and day out, on our soil,” he said. “The many miles between us make it easy to write people off as ‘war people,’ but those people forced to live with war are not that different from us. They were dentists, teachers and construction workers before a war changed everything. It’s necessary to go beyond the label of ‘refugee’ in order to really understand the situation.” — Shapiro’s talk can be viewed at ucsd.tv

Futurists eye designs for next wave of modern living BY WILL BOWEN “Welcome to another one of our mind-blowing lectures,” joked Sheldon Brown, director of the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination at UC San Diego on the evening of Sept. 9. Brown then proceeded to lay the groundwork for the night’s presentation, “Future Domestic Robots: Design Fiction and the House of the Future,” which was given by husband-and-wife team, Bruce Sterling and Jasmina Tešanovic. The couple are in residence at the Clarke Center to incubate ideas with Brown for an upcoming art show in Germany. By way of an introduction, Brown asked

the audience: “How should we design the future? Can we even design a future or does the future happen all by itself?” He then speculated on what the future may look like in 25 years by reflecting on the changes we’ve seen in the past decade. “The last 25 years have brought us the Internet, the World Wide Web, and smartphones. The next 25 will bring even greater changes because of all the technology rapidly emerging. You may not have noticed, but the future that is coming is already creating the person you are today!” he said. Sterling is a futurist and science fiction SEE FUTURISTS, B27

Earmarked foods can dial up hearing and reduce ringing

ecently, I’ve noticed that hearing loss is not just an affliction of the elderly as more and more younger people are now suffering from this problem, along with the maddening ringing of the ears called tinnitus. Years of attending heavy metal and hard rock concerts with unprotected eardrums, repeated use of ear buds, headphones and other auditory paraphernalia, and loud work environments from construction sites to divorce courts can also exacerbate or cause tinnitus along with hearing deterioration. Some choice foods may be able to put the skids on the progression of this deafening duo, or even prevent it, while others will worsen these conditions. Please listen closely. Hearing Loss, Going Bananas: Since low potassium levels have been linked to degenerative hearing loss, amp up foods with a rich store of this mineral, including bananas, apricots, cantaloupe melon, limas (especially raw ones), dark leafy greens, such as spinach and kale, spuds, sweet potatoes, avocados, tomatoes, mushrooms, wild caught salmon, and yogurt. Whip up creamy green smoothies with probiotic kefir yogurt, frozen bananas and apricots, a sweet potato casserole with roasted pecans, a savory mushroom strudel or stew

This trio can help improve one’s hearing. (see recipe), a zippy guacamole dip, or grilled salmon skewers with a succotash side. Folate or folic acid of the B complex family is more than just a supplement for pregnant women to enhance the brain and neurological development of the fetus. It also helps manufacture DNA, RNA and new cells throughout the body, and has been recognized as a key vitamin in warding off hearing loss. Folate is most abundant in fortified cereals, leafy greens, and organs. Chopped liver, anyone? Studies have also shown that foods loaded with Vitamins C and E prevent cellular damage associated with hearing loss. So load up these antioxidant powerhouses in your diet with exotic fruits (kiwi, guavas, papayas), nuts and seeds (almonds, filberts,

pecans, pistachios, walnuts, sesame and sunflower seeds), plant-based oils (olive, grapeseed, canola), citrus fruits (oranges, grapefruits, lemons), dark leafy greens (chard, arugula), gourds (butternut squash and pumpkin), red peppers, tomatoes, broccoli and treasures of the sea, especially shrimp, oysters, herring and trout. Use Your Noodle: Since researchers have linked a high sugar and carb diet to hearing loss, curb or eliminate the evil twin sisters (refined white flour and sugar) and replace with complex carbs, particularly whole grain pastas, brown and wild rices, quinoa, freekah, buckwheat, whole grain barley and rye, along with healthier sweeteners including stevia, agave, coconut sugar and honey. A Grain of Salt: A low sodium diet is also recommended to halt hearing loss. Best use a light hand when holding that shaker, and read labels judiciously for hidden sources of sodium. Tinnitus, Ringing Out the Old: According to the American Tinnitus Association, roughly 50 million Americans are afflicted with the aggravating condition of ringing in the ears, which can also be expressed as a hissing, clicking or buzzing sound at various pitch levels. Salty foods in general have been found to restrict blood flow to the inner ear, and in turn ratchet up ringing. Other culprits include trans fatty monsters, artificial sweeteners, simple sugars, additives, flavor enhancers, particularly Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), and salicylates (a naturally occurring chemical in certain fruits, vegetables, nuts and legumes), especially peanuts, grapes, eggplant, caffeinated drinks, and grain-based distilled liquors, such as,

Wild Mushroom Sauté ■ Ingredients: • 1 1/2 pounds assorted mushrooms, sliced (Portobello, Oyster, Shiitake, your choice) • 1/2 red onion, diced • 2 garlic cloves, minced • 6 tablespoons virgin olive oil • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce • 1/2 cup red wine • 1 tablespoon Italian parsley, chopped • 1/4 teaspoon each turmeric, chopped ginger or powder, rosemary, thyme ■ Method: In a skillet, sauté onions and garlic in oil until glassy. Add mushrooms, Worcestershire, herbs and spices. Cover and simmer 15 minutes. Add wine, simmer 5 more minutes. Ladle over your favorite burger, fish, chicken or pasta . — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

rum, beer, sherry and brandy. On the other hand, foods that might lessen tinnitus by lowering “bad” cholesterol levels, blood pressure and inflammation while energizing the brain, include zinc and magnesium sources (beans, lentils, wild mushrooms, dark leafy greens, assorted nuts, seeds and choice seafood), omega-3 rich fish and olive oil, pineapple containing the potent enzyme bromelain, and B12 powerhouses like eggs, cheese and beef, eaten in moderation.

Fashion Week comes to Village and Shores, Sept. 29-Oct. 2 BY ASHLEY MACKIN Fashion Week San Diego (FWSD) will once again hold its keystone events in La Jolla, Sept. 29-Oct. 2, with the signature two-night runway shows taking place in the Shores, bookended by two events in the Village. Last year was the first time the runway show was held in La Jolla, and organizers shut down Wall Street for the occasion. This year’s event, while less impactful, will be just as exciting. The four-night event opens with the “Art and Beauty Behind Fashion” reception, 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 29 at Shane Bowden Gallery, 7655 Girard Ave. Rather than clothing, hair and makeup as artistic media, will be on exhibit. Highlights include a virtual reality video from last year, hair sculpted into artistic displays, music, one-of-a-kind art made for Fashion Week, and cocktails with partial proceeds going to FAB Authority and Rancho Coastal Humane Society. FAB Authority assists emerging

and unique for that year. The new settings provide a new feel and a new experience,” said Fashion Week San Diego executive director Allison Andrews.

It’s vintage with a twist.” — Find a full schedule and ticket purchases at fashionweeksd.com

The Other Dark Cloud: The Link between Stress and Addiction (Part 1) Drug addiction centers will often cite the many reports of people who suffer from substance addiction, whether it be drug addiction, alcohol addiction, or prescription medication addiction, who started using a substance to self-medicate for depression or another disorder. This may be commonly known in the general public—unfortunately, when information like this becomes known, people can dismiss the threats of substance abuse by saying, “I don’t have a disorder, so that won’t happen to me.”

What many people don’t realize is how often people begin to abuse drugs, alcohol, and prescription medication because of stress. And stress can happen to anyone. It is part of our nature as humans to experience stress; the body produces its own chemicals to deal with all types of stress. It is widely recognized that our lives have become increasingly stressful. Stressful traffic has increased exponentially in the last decade, making longer commutes to and from work, eating away at our day. Many people are still facing the effects of the stressful economic recession of 2007. People don’t have the job security they once did. Our lives overall seem to be filled with more uncertainty than in previous generations. And to top it all off, we get into fights with people on social media. This is normal stress, and is inevitable, at it harms our quality of life. Then there are the types of stress that become even more severe, especially when dealing with ongoing domestic abuse, emotional or physical. An accident or the

loss of a loved one can also lead to deep and prolonged stress, or even post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It can feel impossible to cope with such levels stress. Any kind of stress that becomes prolonged, or is compiled from multiple areas of life, can be so overwhelming that the stress can no longer be managed. In that case, many people turn to alcohol, drugs, or prescription medication to ease their stress, getting hooked on that substance in the process. Stress is physical The American Psychological Association details [LINK: http://www.apa.org/helpcenter/ stress-body.aspx ] the many physical affects that stress has on the body. Stress tenses muscles, causing pain. Stress can make people breathe more quickly, which can be harmful to people with lung diseases such as asthma. Hyperventilating because of stress can even trigger a panic attack. Then, the body produces the stress hormones epinephrine and cortisol, and long-term or repeated triggering of these hormones also has

damaging effects throughout the body. When we are stressed, our veins constrict to increase blood flow, and too much of this can have the same effects as high blood pressure. Stress also disrupts sleep, making the mind work in overdrive and the body physically exhausted. This inability to relax can then lead to more stress, and a lack of focus, creating more stress and causing a vicious circle until the only solution one may find is to reach for the bottle of alcohol or pills, or a drug. Stress on its own can change emotions and behaviors; the synapses in the brain that fire our neurons will shift. And if drugs, alcohol, or prescription medication are taken in order to feel better, the synapses will shift in greater numbers to encourage more of that pleasuregiving substance to fill the brain and block out the feelings stress.

LA JOLLA LIGHT - SEPTEMBER 22, 2016 - PAGE B27

FROM FUTURISTS, B19 writer, who as won two Hugo Awards. He is perhaps best known for having helped developed the sci-fi “Cyberpunk” Movement. Sterling currently teaches summer courses in media and design at the prestigious European Graduate School and was a Visionary-in-Residence at the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles. His wife is a writer who spearheaded the first feminist conference in the Balkans. She has written a book about her experiences of living through the Balkan Wars. Sterling and Tesanovic recently built a house in Turin, Italy, where they live, which created quite a stir in the design movement field. Tesanovic was first to speak. “I am not a futurist or a designer, like my husband. I am more of a doer and a maker. Somehow my husband and I have managed to build a house of the future in Turin,” she explained. “Italy has an obsessive need for beauty and the city of Turin is no exception. Turin is a very beautiful city, which, like Detroit in the USA, has lost over 30 percent of its population, due to economic changes. Hence, there are a lot of old, attractive, abandoned buildings that you can buy for next to nothing. “We bought an old, cold factory building and tore it apart to create living spaces and working labs replete with all the electronics

The Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination at UCSD integrates the arts, sciences, humanities, engineering and medicine to work on a new theoretical framework for exploring the basis of imagination. of the future. We call our new home Casa Jasmina. We intend it to be a Bed & Breakfast where artists and others can come and enjoy the amenities or create their own spaces and devices with materials, like arduinos, which are on hand. You can find more about Casa Jasmina on Facebook or at the website casajasmina.arduino.cc “Our visitors say they want to build the same type of futuristic house in London and other major cities of Europe,” she continued. “Hopefully, someone will build one in California, too.” Sterling discussed all the thought that went into their remodel, including being influenced by the movement for ordinary

people to make simple 99-cent objects with things that are on hand, as the need arises. “I love design fiction or the building of new objects that have never been made,” he said. “I find it rejuvenating, at 62 years old, to be in a room with people half my age who are talking about and building things I do not understand — that’s the theme of the house we’ve created. It is a place to create new things!” Brown, Sterling and Tesanovic next discussed the art project they plan to install in Germany. One of the themes they’re focusing on is the role of domestic robots in homes of the future. “The houses of the future will have robots as helpers, but these robots will look radically different from our current conceptions of robots — like Robbie the Robot, R2-D2 or C-3PO,” Sterling said. Brown interjected, “The trend is toward soft, plastic robots that people can touch and interact with — something like the ‘tribbles’ from the old ‘Star Trek’ episode, ‘The Trouble With Tribbles.’ ” Sterling continued, “These robots will have simple functions and will be like the robot toys currently being created for cats to play with. People will be creatively involved in making their own personal adaptations of robot technology rather than buying ready-made products, like flatscreen TVs, in mass,” said Sterling. The trio was fairly secretive about what

exactly would be in their art show in Germany, except to say they plan on having a dollhouse, part actual and part virtual, which will show miniature people using robots and other new technologies in the house of the future. They’re also working on something they call a “tentacle,” a multipurpose octopus-like robotic arm, but they would not reveal what the arm would be used for! Their presentation left the audience wondering what the ideal house of the future would look like and what type of technology it would have. Perhaps it could have a virtual theater or system for viewing favorite places by way of Web cams set up at strategic locations, maybe in La Jolla Cove or Balboa Park! The trio also asked the audience to reflect on the type of robot they’d like to own. Maybe one you could pet or hug? Or one that would walk the dogs or take out the trash? Would they want a house-wide “Siri” they could talk to about dimming the lights or turning up the heat? “I want a domestic robot that will feed and care for my birds and my pet turtles when I go away on vacation!” said Jeanie Anderson, one of the Clarke Center founders who was in the audience for the lecture. If Sterling, Tesanovic and Brown are right, the house of the future will have all the electronic and computational supplies on hand for her to build it for herself!

IN THE GARDEN

Tips for turning yard waste into gardener’s gold: Compost BY MELINDA MYERS Save time and money by turning landscape trimmings into a valuable soil amendment. The idea is simple, just collect disease- and insect-free plant debris into a heap and let it decompose into a fine, nutrient rich material that helps improve the soil. Don’t add meat, dairy, invasive plants, weeds that have gone to seed or perennial weeds that can take root and grow in your compost pile. Speed things up by layering yard waste with soil or compost, adding a bit of fertilizer to each layer and moistening to a consistency of a damp sponge. Further speed up the process by making the pile at least three-feet tall and wide. Turn the pile as time allows, moving the more decomposed materials from the center to the outside of the pile. It’s a great work out and speeds up the decomposition. The more effort you put into composting the sooner you have rich organic matter for your garden. Build the pile in a location that is convenient for adding raw materials and harvesting the finished compost. Consider placing the pile near a water source to make moistening the pile easier. Avoid poorly drained locations that may lead to the pile of compost becoming waterlogged. Soggy materials break down more slowly and may smell. Enclose the pile in a bin to keep the process neat and tidy. Purchase a compost bin or make your own from fencing, concrete reinforcement wire or old heat-treated pallets. Single bin wire composters are easy to assemble and move. Enclosed bins keep materials out of sight and neighbors or less enthusiastic family members happy. Look for bins of sturdy UV resistant materials, ventilation for efficient composting and designed for easy loading and unloading. Tumbler composters are great for small spaces and make loading, unloading and turning much easier. The closed system also keeps out rodents, wildlife and pets. Add garden waste, keep it consistently moist and give it a turn. Continually adding fresh material slows the process, but you will still end up with good compost. Speed up decomposition with two tumblers. Fill one tumbler with plant waste and let it cook, while collecting fresh materials in the second. Not enough room for two?

GARDENER’S SUPPLY COMPANY

Tumbler composters work for small spaces and make loading, unloading and turning easier. Try the Dual-Batch Compost Tumbler (gardeners.com), Compost Twin or other tumbler system with two individual bins mounted on one support. Further speed up results with an insulated unit like the Jorafoam Composter 125. The insulation ensures compost reaches higher temperatures for more efficient composting. And don’t let cold temperatures or a lack of space stop you. Everyone can convert kitchen scraps into nutrient-rich compost

with the help of red worms. Convert a plastic container filled with shredded paper into a home for the worms and place to recycle plant based food scraps. Or dress things up with a stylish bin like the green Worm Farm Composter and move the worms indoors for convenient recycling. Add finished compost to your vegetable and annual gardens every spring to help build healthy soil and a productive and beautiful garden. Or spread a one-inch layer

over the soil surface of perennials gardens every year or two to keep your flowers looking their best. As you clear out the summer garden, put all that green debris to work. Convert it to rich compost for next year’s garden. Then enjoy the many benefits it will have on your landscape. — Melinda Myers has more than 30 years of horticulture experience and has written more than 20 gardening books, including “Small Space Gardening.” melindamyers.com
