Walter Munk Way La Jolla Shores dedicates street to local science hero BY COREY LEVITAN omeone close to Walter Munk told La Jolla Light that he secretly dislikes being referred to as the “Einstein of the Oceans.” For all his accomplishments as an oceanographer, he’s a modest man who doesn’t see himself as the genius other scientists credit him as being. The scene at Kellogg Park, Oct. 19, as La Jolla Shores renamed its boardwalk “Walter Munk Way” on the eve of his 100th birthday, suggested a different analogy anyway. Drawing a swarm of emotional fans, Munk was more rock star than scientist. SEE WALTER MUNK, A10

Matthew Price, La Jolla Town Council representative, says the study ‘vindicates’ La Jollans’ concerns over the recent increase and intensity of aircraft noise.

BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON The “La Jolla Noise Monitoring Study” — conducted to evaluate the changes and causes of residents’ perceived increase in aircraft noise over the past year — determined that La Jolla faces unique exposure to noise from the skies due to its topographical features, a low ambient score, and the double-whammy of San Diego International Airport planes flying overhead early in the morning and late at night, and military helicopters and planes from Montgomery Airport flying

overhead during the day. The results of the study were submitted to the San Diego Airport Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) during its Oct. 18 meeting in Point Loma. ANAC did not vote on the report, but accepted it for the record and will use it for reference when considering future changes to flight paths. The 44-page report, released Oct. 11, was presented to the board by Paul Dunholter of BridgeNet International, an airport engineering and consulting firm that conducted the study. The firm’s task was to evaluate the effects of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)’s decision to move the arrival flight path into San Diego Airport south over La Jolla as

part of the Metroplex program, which reportedly took place this spring. Through Metroplex, flight paths are adjusted to make airspace more efficient. The FAA reports the projected annual savings are: $7.8 million in fuel; 2.7 million gallons of fuel; and 23.3-thousand metric tons of carbon. Rather than point to one noise source, Dunholter said there is a “combination effect” in play that is causing peoples’ perception of more air noise in La Jolla. “Overall, the airport has increased operations, so there’s a growth in air traffic and 14 percent more jet operations than in 2014,” he told the board. “There are a lot of changes that make things a little bit louder.

ANAC board supports sub-committee recommendations All 21 noise-reducing ideas forwarded to Airport Authority

BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON The San Diego Airport Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) voted to advance to the San Diego Airport Authority for evaluation and implementation, all 21 recommendations for reducing aircraft noise drafted by its sub-committee. These recommendations were discussed for two-and-a-half hours during the Oct. 18 ANAC meeting in Point Loma. La Jolla resident and ANAC sub-committee member Chris McCann told La Jolla Light he was “pleasantly surprised” at the clean sweep. “I think (the ANAC) recognized the amount of thought and effort that went into this, that we are trying to find a holistic solution that works for everybody, and that the wider slate of suggestions we boiled down to these 21, put the best foot forward for the neighborhoods affected by noise. I think they recognized that and that’s why we had an easy time.” The recommendations, which include reviewing the fines assessed on airlines for curfew violations and using those fines for noise mitigation efforts, can be found online at: san.org/airport-noise/initiatives (Click on “Airport Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) Meetings” at the bottom of the page, then click “ANAC Meetings and Agendas,” then click “10-18-17” and open the ANAC Member Package October 2017 document.

ANAC facilitator Heidi Gantwerk said: “I want to acknowledge the work of our sub-committee. For the last year, they’ve been diligent, thoughtful and engaged, and they worked very hard to put together these recommendations. The vote here today is whether to move these recommendations forward for consideration by the Airport Authority board. If it goes to the board, there will then be a staff report and analysis, looking very carefully at the implementation of the recommendations.” Gantwerk read through all the recommendations, then the board heard public comment and voted to approve each one. During public comment, community members advocated for complete approval. The only item that prompted debate was

It was formed and charged with meeting on a monthly basis “until it is determined the issues are thoroughly addressed.” With the submission of its recommendations, some argued that the sub-committee should be dissolved. But others strongly disagreed, insisting it allows for more community representation, discussion, and the ability to conduct research beyond ANAC’s. “I joined the sub-committee because I sat at a meeting last January and realized all the people around me were from La Jolla and were unhappy with the situation, yet there wasn’t a single person on the committee who represented La Jolla,” said McCann (a former pilot). “I joined to give myself and my neighbors a voice in these conversations.” One ANAC member said the sub-committee is the “voice of the audience” and that the dissolution idea was “crazy.” However, ANAC member Debbie Watkins

opined: “Before agreeing to continue the sub-committee, I propose waiting to see how the Airport Authority acts on these 21 recommendations. I recognize many sub-committee volunteers and those who spoke during public comment were concerned that their voices were not taken seriously. I recommend, we who sit on ANAC, roll up our sleeves and take on these types of issues for discussion and submit recommendations. If certain issues are prominent and merit further review, a sub-committee can be re-engaged to address them.” After some discussion, the motion to continue the work and regular meeting of the sub-committee for the foreseeable future passed 4-3. It’s unknown when the Airport Authority would respond to the 21 recommendations. ANAC next meets 4 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 20 at Portuguese Hall, 2818 Avenida de Portugal, Point Loma. san.org/airport-noise/initiatives

Insanely high-end purse consignment shop closes before opening BY COREY LEVITAN Sarah Long points out a Hermes handbag — a Scheherazade pink crocodile-skinned extremely limited Birkin edition — on her display shelf that she says would easily fetch $120,000 at a Christie’s auction in New York City. That’s almost an entry-level Ferrari at the dealership next door. And it’s used! “If you go to Hermes and say, ‘I want this bag,’ they tell you that you have to have two references and you have to buy $500,000 in stuff from that store before they sell this bag to you,” Long said. She purchased this storefront at No. 4 7514 Girard Ave., in a partially hidden retail cul-de-sac, in 2014. After a yoga studio vacated earlier this year, she earmarked the barely 200-square-foot space for a second location of her Authentic Luxury Goods consignment store. Her original location, on Sixth Avenue downtown, sells similar high-end used bags or holds them as collateral for loans. “If you clean your closet and you have two Hermes, if you throw them away, you waste $10,000,” she said, explaining that women tend to use such bags only once or twice, since they’re so valuable, so most remain in perfect condition. “So if you come to my store, I give you $5,000.”

La Jolla Permit Review Committee denies Ricardo Place addition BY COREY LEVITAN Plans for a 807-square-foot, second-story addition to the 2,802-square-foot residence at 314 Ricardo Place were denied by the La Jolla Development Permit Review (DPR) Committee at its Oct. 17 meeting at the Rec Center. In his second DPR presentation, architect Bill Metz claimed that all previously requested reductions and step-backs had been addressed. But neighbors took vocal issue with this. Claiming to represent himself and 13 surrounding homeowners, Allie Simon presented signed letters calling for a step-back of 10 to 20 feet from the existing structure — significantly greater than what Metz presented. “There’s a precedent to be set if there’s a step forward that could be carried forward in other construction in the future,” Simon said. “We want the second story stepped back to preserve our views.” Another neighbor, whom Simon did not claim to represent, complained about a lack of privacy and gutter lines depositing rainwater into his yard. At one point, property owner Pat Robbins got out of her seat to address the swelling discontent. “We felt we compromised,” she said, “and then Bill suggested, to really seal this deal, ‘Why don’t we bring this roof down a foot?’ We thought we did everything you asked.” When Simon tried to interrupt her, Robbins snapped: “No, I’m talking now!” After the committee also expressed concerns, DPR chair Mike Costello advised

Architect Bill Metz fights a losing battle with the Development Permit Review committee. Robbins: “If I were you, I wouldn’t ask for a vote.” Yet she did anyway, suggesting that Metz was being paid handsomely for his time. The vote was 5 to 1 against, with Costello abstaining. “There’s no law prohibiting it,” Costello explained of the upper floor as proposed, “but once you start seeing this thing, you’ve got a moral obligation.” The vote goes next to the La Jolla Community Planning Association, unless

Also at the meeting, structural engineer Hamid Liaghat made a second courtesy presentation to the board concerning his plans to relocate an eight-foot sewer easement, serving 18 homes, at 7520 Hillside Drive. The committee refused to vote because of the revelation of a house attached to the same project number. “We can’t approve the sewer easement if it

also has a house involved with it,” explained DPR member Brian Will, “because we now know that it’s not all this project is.” (Involvement of a house requires notifying the neighbors.) “I really feel bad about this whole thing,” Costello said. “It’s all a matter of a silly notification.” — Development Permit Review (DPR) Committee next meets 4 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 14 at La Jolla Recreation Center, 615 Prospect St. lajollacpa.org

FROM AIRCRAFT NOISE, A1 Those things can build up together and result in the feeling of an increase in noise. La Jolla is situated near a number of airports that generate different flights … In general, the noise levels from San Diego International Airport (SDIA) operations were of a lower magnitude than ones that are not (from the airport), however, these start early in the morning and continue late at night.” The report elaborates: “The maximum noise levels from SDIA operations in La Jolla were typically in the low 50s dBA (A-weighted decibels, an expression of the relative loudness of sounds in air as perceived by the human ear), while the typical single event noise level from non-SDIA operations was in the high 50s to low 60s dBA. In comparison to other areas, locations under the flight path in Point Loma experience maximum noise levels in the 80s dBA.” During the day, Dunholter said, planes operating out of the Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport in Serra Mesa (with a runway that points toward La Jolla Shores) and military helicopters, fly along the coast and over La Jolla. The report continues: “Aircraft from other airports generally result in somewhat higher single-event noise levels, since these are often propeller or helicopter aircraft that fly lower to the ground, generating noise in the 60s dBA to low 70s dBA range. Aircraft from other airports also have a more varied flight pattern and day to day fluctuations in the number of operations.” La Jolla is further impacted by aircraft noise due to its topography and proximity to the ocean.

COURTESY A map marks the sites used in the La Jolla Noise Monitoring Study. Some were checked short-term (two days) and others long-term (25 days).

“One of the things that is also unique about La Jolla is there’s a lower ambient, which means aircraft will be more audible at a greater distance than in other areas. There are times, because of that lower ambient, you will hear aircraft continuously. These planes don’t fly right over, they fly around somewhat, so you get a longer term duration,” Dunholter explained. “La Jolla also has elevated terrain and the

water (ocean) that is like a mirror, so it reflects, and sound travels further, leading to a greater propagation of noise. With late night aircraft operations, there’s a push for departures around 11:30 p.m., when four or six of them go out at about 2 minutes apart. Because of the low ambient, there isn’t any respite or time between events for those who experience the noise.” He also approximated that sound can carry

for 30 to 90 seconds during each event. During the meeting’s public comment period, La Jolla Town Council Airplane Noise Task Force representative Matthew Price said: “I believe the ‘La Jolla Noise Study’ really vindicates the community. It confirms what La Jollans feel, that there is a systemic issue with planes flying (nearby), and the report notes that. It also confirms what you’ve been hearing these La Jollans say, that they’ve lived here for 20 years and it is a quiet, peaceful place. And that’s because the ambient is so low. When you go from an average of 30 decibels to close to 50 decibels, that’s huge.” As to whether the Metroplex system is to blame — which many La Jollans have asserted given the parallel timing to increases in plane noise and Metroplex implementation in other areas of San Diego — Dunholter’s study suggests not. Metroplex rolled out in two phases: November 2016 for Point Loma departures, and March 2017 for La Jolla and Mission Beach departures. He said the study measured one site “pre-Metroplex” to determine a baseline near UC San Diego. After the Metroplex implementation that affected La Jolla in spring 2017, five sites were monitored for “post-Metroplex” readings. “We correlated noise events with radar data and looked at the volume and duration of sound,” he said. “We were not able to measure a difference in the volume itself at the pre- and post-site.” Although the report listed no course of action nor recommendations to decrease noise, Dunholter offered a glimmer of hope: “We are looking at future-generation planes just coming into the fleet that I think are going to get noise levels down below where they are at this point.”

FROM WALTER MUNK, A1 “I’m a little overcome,” he told the Light as well-wishers crowded around his wheelchair seeking selfies and regaling him with stories about how he touched their lives. Munk, a native of Austria, joined Scripps Institution of Oceanography as a doctoral student in 1939, the beginning of a career that transformed science’s insight into the oceans. He invented the science of wave prediction, without which America’s World War II landing on Normandy Beach — June 6, 1944 — might not have succeeded. He invented the tsunami prediction system still in use today. And he remains, despite his advanced age, a prolific climate-change researcher. Prior to the unveiling of three street signs, officials from the City, County and State gave speeches and presented proclamations. “This is the most appropriate thing,” said County Supervisor Ron Roberts. “We have a street named after Neptune, and Walter’s done a lot more than Neptune’s done for our understanding of the oceans.” La Jolla City Council member Barbara Bry, who organized the dedication, praised Munk’s “relentless curiosity, and the creativity and playfulness that he brings to his research.” But it was Munk who made the lasting impression, bringing the fanfare down to Earth and into sharp relief. In 100 years from now, he noted solemnly, Walter Munk Way will probably be underwater. “We are worried it’s going to take a miracle to prevent it from being flooded when it reaches the same age,” Munk said. After Munk and his wife, Mary, tugged on a string to unveil the covered street sign, most of the 300 audience members walked the mile uphill to Scripps. Here, amid Walter Munk standees and banners, they sang “Happy Birthday” to their hero, ate cake, and listened to Munk thank his co-workers throughout the years, most of whom died long ago. “My work is far from finished,” Munk promised. ■ RELATED STORY: To read Part 2 of La Jolla Light’s salute to Walter Munk, see B1.

LJ Crafted Wines awarded platinum, gold in Sommelier Challenge

LJ WINES

Anne and Lowell Jooste own LJ Crafted Wines in Bird Rock.

FROM LJ CRAFTED WINES REPORTS LJ Crafted Wines received multiple awards at the Sommelier Challenge, an international wine and spirits competition, Sept. 23-24, in San Diego — two platinum and two gold awards, with three of these wines submitted in wine growlers/re-usable bottles. LJ Crafted Wines was the only winery to submit wines to the competition in growlers. LJ Crafted Wines announced earlier this year that it stopped bottling with conventional single-use bottles to focus business on its environmentally friendly growler program. Its patent-pending technology, called the “Wine Steward,” is a delivery device that allows wine to be served directly from the barrel in which it is aging, growler after growler, glass after glass, while maintaining the integrity of the remaining contents of the barrel. “We are delighted that our customers embrace our growler program, and are honored that a sommelier judging panel appraised the quality of our wines submitted in growlers so highly,” said Lowell Jooste, owner of LJ Crafted Wines. “These awards affirm that our wines are top quality, and confirm that our innovative way of offering wines in growlers is successful.” Grapes for wines are sourced from growers in Napa and Sonoma, vinified by winemaker Alison Doran-Green in Napa and shipped in barrels to LJ Crafted Wines in La Jolla. In addition, as a licensed urban winery, some wine must be made on the premises. Last year the owners, staff and interested customers made a barrel of Petite Sirah, which was awarded gold in the competition.

The details of the wines awarded: • LJ Crafted Wines Platinum 2013 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 96 points and Best in Show Pinot Noir. In limited supply, online and in the tasting room, $39* • LJ Crafted Wines Platinum 2015 Chardonnay Patient Terrier Vineyard Russian River Valley 94 points, $30* (growler) • LJ Crafted Wines Gold 2015 Pinot Noir Patient Terrier Vineyard Russian River Valley 92 points, $37* (growler) • **LJ Crafted Wines Gold 2016 Bird Rock Petite Sirah, Dry Creek, Sonoma 91 points, $45* (growler). Available only to club members early November. *Wine club members receive 20 percent off all wines **Made on site in San Diego. ljcraftedwines.com LJ Crafted Wines is a family owned and operated urban winery in Bird Rock. The Joostes crafted the concepts for their business from their experience of managing family-owned Klein Constantia and Anwilka vineyards, which they shared with two French winemakers. Lowell is fourth generation in a family dedicated to the wine business and developed deep roots in the international wine scene during his 20-plus year career in South Africa. ■ IF YOU GO: The tasting room, 5621 La Jolla Blvd., has indoor and outdoor seating, and offers small seasonal gourmet plates and cheese boards. Informed wine associates lead guests through the regularly changing wine list. (858) 551-8890. ljcraftedwines.com — Business Spotlight features commercial enterprises that support La Jolla Light.

The Lodge at Torrey Pines hosts 15th ‘Craft’ food fest, Oct. 29 FROM LODGE REPORTS The Lodge at Torrey Pines will host the 15th annual Celebrate the Craft, a food festival highlighting Southern California’s finest chefs, food artisans, produce, wine and craft beer, 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 29 on The Lodge’s Arroyo Terrace. The lineup of featured chefs will mirror that of the inaugural 2002 festival. “We’ve developed a fraternity of chefs, winemakers, producers and farmers who are passionate about the sources of our foodstuffs,” said The Lodge’s executive chef Jeff Jackson. This year, chefs will cook in teams of three, working together to develop plates highlighting one key protein, such as chicken, fish, and rabbit, or a vegetable. Tickets are $135 at celebratethecraft.com A portion of the sale will be donated to Slow Food Urban San Diego, a non-profit that encourages the enjoyment of and access to local, seasonal and sustainable foods. The chef lineup includes Christian Graves (Citizen Rail in Denver), Michael Stebner (Sweetgreen), Kelli Crosson (A.R. Valentien), Steven Riemer (Oceana Coastal Kitchen), Paul Arias (The Fishery), Pete Balistreri (Tender Greens), Gregory Chavez (Wine Vault & Bistro), Drew Deckman (Deckman’s en el Mogor), Jack Fisher (Town and Country Resort), James Foran (Grossmont College), Trey Foshee (George’s at the Cove and

City Council postpones short-term rental vote

La Jolla High School music director Michael Fielder, right, accepts a $10,000 check from the Kiwanis Club of La Jolla’s Nancy J. Miller. “Without contributions from folks like you and from other donors,” Fiedler told the Kiwanis Club at its Oct. 20 meeting at La Jolla Presbyterian Church, “it’s not possible to have a music department at the high school.”

The San Diego City Council meeting to discuss short-term rental regulation proposals was postponed in light of a memo issued by the San Diego City Attorney’s office. The meeting, and possible vote, was scheduled for Monday, Oct. 23 at Golden Hall, downtown. A new date has not been announced. According to The San Diego Union-Tribune, some of the provisions in the various proposals raise questions of “equal protection” by imposing different regulations for different types of short-term rental hosts. City Attorney Mara Elliot pointed out that some of the fees recommended for generating revenues to help enforce new rental regulations could be interpreted as taxes and would require voter approval.

OPINION

www.lajollalight.com

OUR READERS WRITE County continues Hep A outbreak warning Editor’s Note: The San Diego County Board of Supervisors extended the Hepatitis A outbreak public health emergency for another two weeks again on Tuesday, Oct. 24. Through Oct. 19, there have been 516 cases associated with the outbreak, including 19 deaths and 357 hospitalizations. The County’s public health officer declared the outbreak emergency on Sept. 1 and the board is required to review the need for continuing the declaration every 14 days.

La Jolla lacks leaders addressing Hep A issue ■ I read the two letters last week from the La Jollans who separately witnessed three incidents of public defecation in the month of October 2017 by homeless persons. I was shocked by the response La Jolla Light received from San Diego’s County Health Department in how they deal with this potentially life-threatening situation. The County told the Light what the public can do on their own to clean it up! This is an unacceptable response and way of handling public defecation in light of a statewide Hepatitis A epidemic centered in San Diego, where 19 people have died and more than 420 have been sickened by contacting Hep A from feces left on the streets by the homeless population. The City Council mismanaged this outbreak from the beginning by not doing something to prevent this in the first place, and now the County Health Department is doing the same by not taking steps to deal with this in our community, where three cases of Hep A have been found in La Jolla. La Jolla Town Council, along with the San Diego City Council, needs to have a better way of dealing with this problem than expecting the general public to “buy plastic gloves, disposable absorbent materials, shovels if needed, disinfectant sprays approved for Hep A, and figuring out proper disposal methods on their own,” which I have a feeling most, if not all people, would not do. Whether public facilities need to be provided or some other resolution it, needs to be done immediately by the County and the La Jolla Town Council needs to be involved, as well. Avalee Cohen ■ I hope, as in the past, the La Jolla Light will be proactive in reporting what is going on in our Village! I’m hoping we can take a stand on the following matter immediately! I live in the apartment above the Rangoni Firenze Shoes store on Girard Avenue, and am appalled at the following behavior: Last Saturday, during our 9 a.m. meeting, my work crew and I watched as a homeless person pulled down his pants and defecated right in front of the building as we met inside! This Village is a family destination and we watched as children and adults walked on after getting out of their vehicles! I hope something can be done to prevent this from ever happening again! James Wyno Editor’s Note: In regard to the human feces observed on public streets in La Jolla, The Light received this response from Mauricio Medina, representative for District 1 City Council member Barbara Bry: “City staff is going to

come out to inspect the area. For future reference, you can report the need for cleaning of feces/urine to trash@sandiego.gov” — MauricioM@sandiego.gov, (619) 236-6159.

Frustration with homeless situation persists I spoke with a homeless person the other day. He was able-bodied and coherent. He told me he did not like working and prefers to be in a shelter being provided for and does not want to be responsible for anything. That is not acceptable. Why should others take care of these people? Will they clean up their own toilets and kitchens in the tents that are provided for them? Or are we, the taxpayers, to have the burden of doing so? If they are mentally challenged, they belong in institutions. If they are able to work, then the State of California should provide them employment. They could clean the streets or do whatever job is available. They must not be allowed to loiter, dirty the streets and expose others to Hepatitis A. Peggy Hinaekian

Can UCSD buildings legally top 30 feet? After reading the front-page article in the Oct. 19 Light regarding UC San Diego and its proposed development plans for campus expansion on Torrey Mesa, my question is this: How does UCSD escape the 30-foot height limitation that drives all development west of Interstate-5? Can the journalist who wrote this article report to your readers on this point? Lou Cumming Reporter’s Note: Due to the construction approval process UC San Diego must follow, the University does not have to adhere to the 30-foot height limit.

Sound wall a moot point Regarding the article, “Radio silence on Parkway sound wall,” in the Oct. 12 issue: We have lived on Ardath Road for 41 years and have easily tolerated the traffic noise. People who choose to live on or near La Jolla Parkway do so, in part, because of quick and easy access to freeways SR 52 and I-5, and the short distance to the beach. People who prefer quieter surroundings should choose to live in one of La Jolla’s quieter neighborhoods, which, of course, will not be as convenient to the freeways. Many houses on Ardath Road have walls to block the traffic noise. The proposed sound wall for La Jolla Parkway was discussed extensively in early 2015 by the La Jolla Traffic & Transportation advisory board (T&T). Despite nods of approval from La Jolla Town Council and La Jolla Shores Association in 2015, T&T and its chair Todd Lesser had questions regarding a proposed extension to the existing sound wall alongside La Jolla Parkway. T&T questioned the cost (between $1 million and $2 million), the small number of families affected, whether the wall would bounce the sound to residences on the other side of La Jolla Parkway, how wild animals would be affected by the wall, and whether an environmental impact report would be needed. Nancy Lo

Card entry access would solve track-use dilemma A group of residents is seeking the use of the La Jolla High School Track during off-school hours. The recently renovated track is currently closed to the public. It was open prior to renovation. Today, a senior citizen or a youth living on the same street, cannot enter the empty track on a weekend morning for just a half-hour brisk walk or jog. La Jolla has no other level walking facility in the area, much needed by seniors and others. The school’s principal and athletic director are not open to this request, citing concerns of vandalism and dog waste. Last week, La Jolla Town Council invited both the school and the residents to present their cases. School officials continue to stand by their position not to open the track to the residents. A simple solution is an entry code lock or card entry access, but the school is insisting on paid monitoring and hefty use-fees for any activity. Liability concern, if any, could be cleared by users signing a release form. I hope school authorities will reconsider their policy and allow neighboring residents a limited use of the track with some minor use-rules, dog restrictions and accessible gate entry. I also request the parents and patrons of the school to speak to authorities to help resolve this issue. Even though the primary users are the students, the school is a proud local asset with its track renovation possible through public funding, and sharing its facilities is a very reasonable and inclusive approach, which can only strengthen public support for the school and its future endeavors. Sri Iyengar

Bridge For Kids thanks its many supporters The recent “A Bridge For Kids” fifth annual Casino Night was a magical evening, and we want to extend our sincere appreciation to the many sponsors, donors and guests who supported our mission of helping high-achieving, low-income San Diego teens create a bright and successful future. This year’s event raised close to $150,000 which will fund sponsorships, SAT/ACT classes, college tours, tutoring, and more programs for our teens. We look forward to seeing everyone next year on Oct. 6 at our new venue. abridgeforkids.org

CORRECTION Last week’s story, “UCSD to release EIR for 11-acre Living Learning Neighborhood,” contained an error. In referencing the recently approved Hillel Center for Jewish Life project across the street from the campus for UCSD students, its construction is not a UCSD project.

The post-game photo from the third annual ‘Tangle in the Tank,’ Sept. 28, with the LJHS varsity water polo team, varsity football team, coaching staffs and the Cheer Squad.

Tangle in the Tank yields $1,200 for breast cancer fight BY TOM MURPHY La Jolla High School’s boys water polo team squared off against the Vikings football team for the third annual “Tangle in the Tank,” Sept. 28th at Coggan Family Aquatic Center. As in the past two years, the event raises funds and awareness for the Susan G. Komen Foundation, San Diego for breast cancer research, services and supports. Hundreds of students and parents attended the game, including a few who just wanted to see the halftime belly flop contest. Water polo Coach Tom Atwell reminded everyone what an important cause it is to find a cure for cancer. As a two-time cancer survivor, he spoke from the heart about the disease and how everyone has been affected in some way by cancer. More than $1,200 was raised and will be presented to the SGK Foundation at an upcoming home football game. With 40 ninth-graders forming the Viking freshman football team this year, Coach John McColl wanted to include more than the varsity athletes in this contest. As a result, the first quarter paired the football freshman and the JV water polo crew for eight furious minutes that ended with a 10-0 lead for water polo. Rules of the contest allow for 11 football players in the pool against seven for water polo, and a football score is worth seven points (touchdown), so a lead can change quickly. When the varsity teams entered the pool for the second quarter, things tightened up quickly. It turns out football quarterbacks and former baseball players take quality shots on goal as evidenced by Trevor Scully, Karsten Fehlan, Kenny Hayden and Gabe Solis. The score at halftime was 14-7 in favor of water polo. The halftime show was as entertaining as the game. Sign-ups were taken by ASB to “Flop for a Cure,” which gave a dozen or more

The halftime show, ‘Flop for a Cure,’ helped raise additional funds for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Football Coach Bilal Watkins proved a formidable belly-flop finalist with this crowd-pleasing landing. He was a finalist in the splash zone along with LJHS diving star Jordan Schultz, who received high scores for his technical maneuvers.

With the game tied 21-21 in the fourth quarter, there was plenty of fun to be had. Junior water polo standout Cole Atwell enjoys a little ribbing from his friend and junior football sensation Gabe Solis. Moments later, Atwell scored the go-ahead goal.

suddenly tied at 21-21 in the fourth quarter. Since they split the last two Tangle contests, this was a rubber match that came down to the wire before water polo pulled out a 23-21 victory. Scoring leaders for water polo were Johnny Dickerson, Dominic Scurio and Johnny Dowd, but everyone contributed. Goalie Cole Raulston blocked a number of tricky shots from the football team. Serving as referee was Coggan Pool director Randy Franke. On the deck and announcing a great game for a third year was Milan Dimich. Judi Steadman and her crew from Susan G. Koman Foundation were on hand throughout the afternoon. There was solid support from the LJHS administration, faculty, staff, ASB, PTSA and Foundation members who turned out in force to support the cause.

people an opportunity to belly flop in front of their friends. When Football Coach Bilal Watkins stepped on the diving board, he was an immediate crowd favorite and didn’t disappoint with significant water displacement on a perfect belly flop. He was joined in the final round by Jordan Schultz, a highly decorated LJHS varsity dive team captain, who pulled off a 2-1/2 somersault ending perfectly in a belly flop. The cheering crowd demanded a flop-off and they got one. Schultz came in first, closely followed by Coach B. Then a bidding war started for Coach McColl and Coach Atwell to take a flop. A few hundred dollars later, they ended up in the tank to great fanfare — all for a great cause. The second half was tightly contested and when football scored another 7-pointer, the game was

Seaside Dazzle in La Jolla: Alison Green designed this home with stunning ocean views for a couple who wanted to maximize living space and take advantage of its location.

Engaging Balance in Mission Hills: This design by Jen Pinto transformed the kitchen in an historic bungalow to bring it more in line with the home’s character and create a space that would better accommodate entertaining large groups. Uniquely Bold in Ocean Beach: Rosella Gonzalez created a design for a young couple with a growing family. Handmade tile in a mosaic design, customized with exacting attention to detail, infuses the kitchen with personal expression. ■ IF YOU GO: JDR Design & Remodeling Seminar runs 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 14 at 4797 Mercury St., San Diego, CA 92111.

La Jolla Volleyball Club marks 7 years Open try-outs Nov. 4

BY BARBARA BIRNBAUM Girls Volleyball is now the second-highest participation sport in high school, only behind track and field. Additionally, club-level numbers continue to grow, with multiple national championship tournaments each spring. These tourneys draw hundreds of college coaches for scouting and recruiting, and the excitement at these club travel tournaments is contagious. Here in town, La Jolla Volleyball (LJV) club has emerged as a top option for competitive players, with the majority of players on its older teams also competing with their school teams in the fall, and many progressing to play in college. LJV club offers programs for boys and girls, from camps and clinics to teams, and players start as young as age 10. LVC emphasizes fundamentals, fast-paced practices, team-building and respect, while pushing players to be the best they can be.

Principals say enrollment down at La Jolla schools Scheduling changes avert teacher loss By Ashley Mackin-Solomon The first few weeks of the 2017 school year were a bit rough at La Jolla’s public schools, with enrollment down across the board. As the doors opened in August, fewer-than-expected students arrived, leading to some scrambling, schedule rearranging, potential loss of teachers and more. The principals of La Jolla’s five public schools — Bird Rock Elementary, La Jolla Elementary, Torrey Pines Elementary, Muirlands Middle and La Jolla High schools — discussed the challenging start at the first La Jolla Cluster Association meeting of the year, Oct. 19 at Muirlands Middle School. Teachers explained that each school receives a San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) enrollment projection and the elementary schools conduct a survey asking families if they plan to have their child (children) return or go elsewhere. For every 30 students, the school is allocated one teacher. At La Jolla Elementary, the enrollment drop put one teacher’s position in jeopardy. Principal Donna Tripi reported that the count was down by 30 students. “I was two students away from losing a teacher and sweating it out. Luckily, two students showed up at the 11th hour and I was able to get some sleep.”

Bird Rock Elementary Principal Amanda Hale reported: “We’re good. We have lower numbers in third grade, but we’re bursting at the seams for TK (transitional kindergarten) through second grade.” Torrey Pines Elementary Principal Sarah Ott said the school was “only down by a few students,” but the number of fifth-grade classes decreased. “We have two this year, when we normally have three or four. But we had the teachers we needed for enrollment.” However, at Muirlands Middle School, the enrollment drop required some “creative” rearranging, which resulted in smaller class sizes. At nearly 60 students short, Muirlands was faced with losing two teachers and the grade that would have been most affected was sixth, Principal Harlan Klein said. “Our numbers suggested we’d be at 1,065 students, but when we opened, we were hovering at 1,007. We came up with a plan and worked with our Foundation. The Foundation has a reserve for teacher adjustment and it carries over year after year, so this year, the board decided to exercise the use of that money so we didn’t have to restructure the entire school. There would have been hundreds of schedule changes,” Klein said. “Where it stands now, we are enjoying what I consider dramatic class size reduction. We have class sizes in the 20s, which is unheard of in a middle school. We didn’t have to move any students because we didn’t lose any teachers.”

ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

Parents, teachers and principals from La Jolla’s schools meet to talk about enrollment decreases at the La Jolla Cluster Association meeting. La Jolla High School, faced with a similar situation, took the opposite approach. Said Principal Chuck Podhorsky: “We built our master schedule around 1,600 students, which was a little over our projections. When the doors opened up, we ended up shorter than anticipated. Instead of exhausting the Foundation coffers, we made the decision to ‘right-size.’ So we had some schedule changes for students, and it wasn’t fun for our students and their families, but we made it through.” Podhorsky attributed the enrollment drop to students going to private schools and moving out of the area. Klein added that SDUSD bus schedule changes left more students with the responsibility of providing their own transportation. Through SDUSD’s Voluntary Enrollment Exchange Program (VEEP),

students may attend schools other than their neighborhood schools and transportation may be provided. But the number of feeder schools that can provide transportation to La Jolla High or Muirlands Middle decreased. “We lost more students this year due to transportation changes than anything else,” Klein said. SDUSD executive director of financial planning and development, Debbie Foster, added the decrease in enrollment is district-wide. “Attendance is how we get our money … so if enrollment is down, that’s another thing that impacts our financials,” she said. “The tricky thing this year is that our projections are usually pretty spot on and we use those for budget projections. By being down in enrollment, we’re feeling the pain this year.”

FROM NEWS NUGGETS, A17 Diego have discovered new evidence about mutant p53 that may reshape the understanding of tumor growth and ultimately how doctors treat cancer. A study published in Nature Communications, led by Homa Rahnamoun in Shannon Lauberth’s laboratory at UCSD’s Division of Biological Sciences, uncovered a mechanism linking mutant p53 function to chronic inflammation — a long-term condition associated with a response in the body’s immune system — which can be induced in situations ranging from stress to food consumption. Lauberth said evidence supports the role of chronic inflammation in the predisposition and progression of cancer, with some human tissues being more susceptible to tumor growth influenced by inflammation, including colon and breast cancers. “Immune therapy has been helpful in terms of targeting cancer and decreasing tumor size, but now we found that inflammatory mediators can instead orchestrate growth in cancer cells harboring a mutation in p53. These findings make us really rethink the process of tumorigenesis and how we treat cancer,” said Lauberth, an assistant professor in the Section of Molecular Biology.

CRIME AND PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS Suit filed in UTC pool shooting tragedy A woman injured in the University City shooting in April has filed a lawsuit claiming the gunman’s family should have known he was a threat. According to published reports, Charnee James was one of seven adults shot by Peter Selis, when he opened fire on partygoers in a pool area at the La Jolla Crossroads Apartments on Judicial Drive. Selis, who lived at the complex, was shot and killed by San Diego police officers. In her lawsuit, James said Selis’ family members were negligent because they knew or should have known Selis was a danger to himself and others because he was obviously struggling. The lawsuit said those closes to him should have noticed the warning signs, including a recent breakup and crippling debt. Selis' brother-in-law, Stuart Posnack, is chief executive of Garden Communities, a development firm that is the parent company of La Jolla Crossroads LLC, which owns the complex where the shooting occurred.

La Jolla man fights backyard intruder A La Jolla man fought an intruder on his Cuvier Street property and was able to

retain him on site until police arrived, leading to an arrest and sentencing. Speaking with La Jolla Light, Kevin Connelly reported at around 9:20 p.m. Oct. 15, while his wife and two of his three children were asleep, the intruder crept onto his property with an unknown motive. “My wife said she heard something outside, so I looked outside and walked around the property and didn’t see anything. As I walked into the backyard, it was really dark and I couldn’t see anything, but 10 inches away from me I heard a scratching noise (against a slatted fence), I reached out and grabbed a human arm,” he said. The two fought as the suspect tried to escape, and Connelly said he was “smashed in the jaw” at one point. Connelly said he hit the intruder back to slow him down. “I grabbed his backpack and threw us both on the ground. He tried to get away and I tried to hold on,” he said. With all the yelling and commotion, several neighbors called 9-1-1. With the help of a neighbor who came to his aid, Connelly was able to keep the iuntruder on site until police arrived, arrested him and charged him with aggravated assault and trespassing with occupied residents. On Oct. 19, the suspect pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 240 days (eight months) in jail and three years’ probation. “I did what any dad would do to protect their family. But the way it happened was

Walter Munk Centennial / Part 2

At Home: His house is his hand-built castle BY LONNIE BURSTEIN HEWITT Editor’s Note: This is the second in a ttwo-partt iinterview t i with ith ffamed d SScripp i ps Institution of Oceanography g p y scientistt Walter Munk, which took place a week prior to his 100th birthday on Oct. 19. The first part of the story is posted at lajollalight.com

igh on a verdant La Jolla hilltop, above a steep canyon leading down to a wide expanse of ocean, Walter Munk sits at his desk, at work. At age 100, he still has lots of work to do. Besides preparing talks for his centennial events, he is thinking about waves. “I’ve been studying the influence of wind on waves, off and on, for 50 years,” he says. “And I want to write one more good paper before I kick the bucket.” Although he’s often in a wheelchair now, he doesn’t seem ready to kick any bucket. In fact, he and his wife, Mary, are planning another trip down to Cabo Pulmo, to join a second expedition in search of his namesake devil ray (Mobula Munkiana). There’s a lifesize Mobula a sculpture suspended outside his window, Mary wears a small gold Mobula charm around her neck, and they y still hope to see a full gathering of the t leaping rays ssome day.

entrally located just a few blocks from La Jolla’s coastline and in the heart of the shopping and eating hub of The Village, The Empress Hotel sits at 7766 Fay Ave. At the helm for the last two years is UTC resident and general manager Joel Majors, who sat down for this edition of “People in Your Neighborhood.”

Where did you grow up?

I’m from the Midwest, but I consider myself a Californian having lived here most of my life. If you’ve ever been to the Midwest, the winters are so harsh and the summers are hot and humid. That was not for me. The weather here was more friendly. I lived in places like LA before I moved here two years ago. I love it here because it’s beautiful even in the winter, but if you want snow, you can take a short drive and to the mountains.

Do you have family here?

My niece Mamie and her baby, Leilani Grace, live with me and they are the loves of my life.

8 frightful food tips for keeping you safe

La Jolla Cultural Partners

ll Hallows’ Eve heralds the culinary witches hauling out their rusty cauldrons to start brewing magical elixirs of spider heads, bloody bat wings and other gross things. But in the real gustatory world, we must beware of dangers lurking both as foragers in fields and shoppers in markets, as well as in our own kitchens and gardens. Here’s a spine-chilling food list to keep you and yours healthy. 1. The vibrant bay leaf that adds an earthy essence to soups, stews and sauces alas has a piercing sharp stem that can scratch or cut the mouth, throat or other parts. Always remove the leaves before serving, and where possible wrap them in gauzy cheesecloth prior to cooking to make it easier to fish out of the pot. Easier yet to use ground bay leaves instead of whole ones. 2. Go green, except when eating potatoes. Green spots on spuds indicate an over exposure to light and high temps, forming a concentration of solanine and chlorophyll in the root. Solanine poisoning can cause gastrointestinal problems of all manners, so carve away green spots or discard the potato completely. 3. The leaves and stems of tomato

plants also contain solanine, along with an alkaloid toxin called tomatine. Carefully remove all greenery from the fruit before slicing, dicing, pureeing or cooking, especially with vine-ripened varieties. 4. There is a seedy side to apples (never mind about Adam and Eve), along with stone fruits, including cherries, peaches and plums as they harbor cyanide in their seeds and pits, while the divine tropical cherimoya with a creamy sweet pulp is laced with glossy black seeds containing a dangerous neurotoxin. Enjoy the fruits, but steer clear of their hazards. 5. Intrepid foragers beware of poisonous mushroom doppelgangers known as toadstools sprouting in woodlands, fields and forests. These usually have white gills and pointy caps, sometimes dotted with pigments, but others can closely resemble edible mushrooms. 6. Chestnuts, the darling fruit of the holiday season are downright unpalatable when eaten raw. This can be quickly remedied by following Nat King Cole’s suggestion by roasting them on an open fire. Still, remove all brown shells that are laced with bitter acidic tannins.

7. Alphabetically speaking, avoid buying products containing BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), and BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene) that are designed to extend shelf life with the collateral effect of shortening human life; MSG (monosodium glutamate), a neurotoxin that amps up the flavor of everything from artichokes to zucchini while (some people say) triggering jack-hammer migraines and vision impairment; BPA, the industrial chemical bisphenol A used in the 1960s to prevent food contamination is still found in the linings of aluminum cans, plastic bottles and other food storage containers. The venerable Mayo Clinic advises consumers to buy BPA-free products to avoid ingesting the chemical — which tends to leach into foods and liquids, especially when they have acidic content, such as tomatoes, pickles, etc. BPA has been found to elevate blood pressure, increase risk for Alzheimer’s disease, breast and other cancers; and GMOs or genetically modified Frankenstein crops, particularly soy, corn and canola oil. 8. Save the electric shades of green, red, blue and yellow food coloring for Halloween décor and science experiments. Artificial dyes, including Blue #1 and #2, Green #3, Red #40, and Yellow #5 and #6 (laced into snacks, cake frostings, candies, soft drinks and sugary cereals) have been linked to various health risks from neurological and behavioral problems to certain cancers. If you still want to add vibrant eye candy to special confections or desserts (such as red velvet cupcakes) use natural food colorings extracted from red berries or beets for ruby hues, elderberries for striking purples and turmeric for bright golden tones.

Tipsy Chestnut Puree ■ Ingredients: 2 pounds raw chestnuts; 1/2 to 3/4 cup brown sugar (adjust to taste); 1/2 cup dark honey; 2 cups water; 2 tablespoons dark rum, brandy or Grand Marnier; 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. ■ Method: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. With a sharp knife, score chestnuts. Place on parchment-lined cookiesheet and bake for 20 minutes, until shells open. Cool, and remove shells. In a saucepan, bring to boil all ingredients. Simmer for 30 minutes until water becomes a thick syrup and chestnuts are tender. Strain chestnuts into food processor or blender, and process until smooth, adding syrup until the puree reaches desired consistency. Serve warm or cold. slather on French toast or pancakes, drizzle on ice creams and gelatos, biscotti, quick breads or even root vegetables and other savory dishes.

La Jolla High enters ‘The Twilight Zone’ in fall production BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON It’s an otherwise quiet and snowy day in a small town. Area police officers have received reports of an unidentified object that has crashed in the woods. Officers look for the vessel — perhaps a meteor — but find nothing. Footprints are discovered leading to the nearby Hi-Way Café diner, and a bus is parked out front. Upon further investigation, the diner has one more person than can be accounted for on the bus. While it might raise some eyebrows in the real world, all this is perfectly common … in The Twilight Zone. The mere mention of “The Twilight Zone” incites memories of Rod Sterling’s iconic voice, and black-and-white science fiction impossibilities, along with an uncontrollable urge to emulate the theme music. The theater department at La Jolla High School will bring three favorite episodes to the stage for its fall production of “The Twilight Zone,” 7 p.m. Nov. 2-4, with a pay-what-you-can performance 3 p.m. Nov. 3 in the school auditorium, 750 Nautilus St. The three episodes are: “Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?” (teased at the start of this story), “The Living Doll” and “Eye of the Beholder.” Having done “Twilight Zone” episodes as workshop exercises in the past, it was on director Stacey Allen’s bucket list to present a full staged production. “A lot of the kids had surprisingly heard of ‘The Twilight Zone’ already, so they took to it right away. Once they saw the episodes, they said, ‘We have to do this!’ It wasn’t a hard sell for them,” he laughed. “Teens have a short attention span and parents are coming to the show after a long day at work, so these pieces are fast and entertaining; they get right to the good stuff. Some are eerie, some are spooky, others are thought-provoking.” Senior Robert Mackey, who starred as Seymour in last year’s production of “Little Shop of Horrors,” returns as Ross in “Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?” He said the production stays close to the television version in terms of script and feel. “An alien ship has landed somewhere in the area and there’s a diner with an extra person in it,” he relates. “They figure someone in the diner isn’t supposed to be there, so they look at who got off the alien ship and was able to blend in with people.” The other episodes feature a talking doll that, when speaking to a little girl says: “I’m Talking Tina and I love you very much,” but threatens to kill other people; and the story of a beautiful woman deemed ugly by the standards of a society of animal-faced creatures.

‘Twilight Zone’ Fun Facts ■ ‘The Twilight Zone’ was an American science-fiction, fantasy, psychological, supernatural horror anthology television series created by Emmy Award-winning writer Rod Serling, who served as its host. ■ The show ran for five seasons on CBS from 1959 to 1964.

COURTESY

‘The Twilight Zone’ will be on stage Nov. 2-4 at La Jolla High School, 750 Nautilus St. Senior Anna Romstead, who plays a server in the diner in the Martian episode, added that “The Twilight Zone” has a unique appeal for audiences of all ages. “A lot of times, stories made today in this genre are really weird and dark and not very light. ‘The Twilight Zone’ isn’t super heavy, and I really like that. Not everyone can watch something super edgy or dark. Our version, in particular, has a fun twist to it.” Adding to the lightness is self-proclaimed “comic relief,” senior Joe Senoff, who plays Crazy Eyes in the Martian episode. “He’s this old man who says a lot of weird stuff and wants to mess with the people in the diner,” Senoff explained. “He accuses someone of being the alien, and after you see the show, you realize who the Martian actually is.”

■ Opening narration to Season 1: ‘It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It COURTESY is the middle ground Rod Serling between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.’ Azure Sweetan-Abbott, who has a role in the “Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?” and is an understudy in “The Living Doll,” said the three-episode production is “really good and is going to be creepy, funny, weird and family-friendly.” Seamus Butler, who plays her husband in “Martian” added, “It’s a great watch and a good experience.” ■ IF YOU GO: “The Twilight Zone” is on stage 7 p.m. Nov. 2, 3 and 4, with a pay-what-you-can performance 3 p.m. Nov. 3 in the La Jolla High School auditorium, 750 Nautilus St. Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for students, at ljhstheatre.com or the box office.

FROM JOEL MAJORS, B1

How did they come to live with you?

I was in living in LA (before this) and Mamie came to visit me there and liked it, so when I moved here, she wanted to come, too. At that time, I was deciding on a house and got one big enough for the three of us, so she could live here.

Were you always in the hotel industry?

Yes, I always knew hospitality was the industry for me. From the time I graduated high school, it was what I wanted to do. I started at the first hotel being a driver and bellman, and I worked my way up to the front desk, then front desk supervisor and now ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON general manger. It’s taken me what feels like a Joel Majors, Empress Hotel general manager lifetime to get to where I am now.

What do you like about your job? meet them and find out what brought them

In the hotel industry, every day is different and I like this about the job. Any given day, I’ll be in the hotel lobby, garden patio or at the front desk reception … our clients come from places around the world and it’s fun to

to La Jolla. Because of this, the associates (at the hotel) nicknamed me the Lobby Lizard.

What do you do for fun?

I love to cook with my family. My niece

You’re in for a spell of bad luck when a black cat crosses your path. False?: The origins of the black cat crossing your path superstition is a bit of a mystery, but there are a few ideas. A cat’s ability to move silently and practically undetected put some people on edge, and cats association with Egyptian religion added to the uneasiness in some Christian cultures. From here it was said that cats — and black cats in particular — acted as “familiars” to witches, creatures imbued with an evil, otherworldly sentience that give power to their master. In Japan, people believe encountering a black cat is good luck. So, the next time a black cat crosses your path, just say “Konichiwa” and take control of your own luck. — timelessmyths.co.uk

likes to cook, so she’ll make something every once in a while. But when it’s my turn in the kitchen, I like to make pastas and bake a chicken. Basic easy stuff, nothing gourmet. I like to sit down with the family and talk about the day. I also like going to the beach. Baby girl loves to go to the beach and play in the sand and get in the water. She can be very mischievous, like most two-year-olds. I really enjoy going to musicals, from “Phantom of the Opera” to “The Book of Mormon.” I’ve seen a lot of the classics more than once. “Jersey Boys” is another favorite. I think the original play started at La Jolla Playhouse. I also like concerts. I saw Cher in LA when I was living there, and I’ve seen Neil Diamond, and Billy Joel when he was performing in San Diego. I enjoy listening to and collecting music from all genres. I have over 1,500 CDs.

Have any celebrities ever stayed or eaten here? Billy Joel actually ate at The Manhattan Restaurant while he was here a few months back. He was staying elsewhere, but came here for dinner with his friends. The piano

player recognized him and he started playing a Billy Joel song. When Billy Joel was done with his dinner, he walked up to the piano player, shook his hands, thanked him and gave him a $100 tip.

What’s the hotel industry doing in light of competition from short-term rentals?

There is not a lot that can be done … but we try to be a step above them and provide the best personalized customer service or offer an amenity. We provide knowledgeable staff that can offer (dining and recreational) recommendations.

What restaurants do you recommend?

In case they don’t want a steak at The Manhattan, I send them to really any restaurant on Prospect Street. I’ve eaten at a lot of places around town, so I can give a personal recommendation (laughs). It depends on what the guest wants. If they want to rent bicycles, we can arrange for that. Sometimes they just want to explore The Cove and we can connect them with (concessionaires) there.

Queen of the Mosaic

Bird Rock ‘tile’ artist brings beauty to the community she loves BY JEANNE RAWDIN rtist Jane Wheeler is almost a household name in the Bird Rock area, known for her series of five mosaic benches on La Jolla Boulevard, among many other things. She’s lived in La Jolla for 26 years, and has embarked on a myriad of new art projects. Many of them center around area schools. Wheeler is creating a series of 10 Donor Columns for the entrance to La Jolla Methodist Church Nursery. The idea came when she met with members of the school’s foundation who were trying to come up with a way to raise funds. Each column is six feet tall, and donors’ names are placed on the tiles. The tile designs are related to nature and the color scheme and design vary with each column, but flow into each other. It starts with a blue ocean and fish design then flows into flowers and birds, then dolphins and starfish. Every year Wheeler creates a new column. “Both of my children went to La Jolla Methodist Church Nursery School, so I’m quite attached to the school and have many happy memories from those times. It’s a part of my neighborhood, I live right down the street, and I enjoy adding art to the

community vibe.” Wheeler is also working on a “Teacher Legacy Wall” at Bird Rock Elementary. The Wall is a mosaic intended to honor all the teachers who retire from the school. “Last year four teachers retired and the foundation asked me to help them come up with a concept that would visually honor these teachers who had touched so many lives over the years,” she explained. “They found a space at the school and we brainstormed the wall.” The pelican logo standing on Bird Rock is the centerpiece of the design, and waves undulate to the right and left of the rock. Within the waves are large fish with the teachers’ names and the dates they served at the school, followed by four little fish that represent the students they taught. The first four teachers honored are Barbara McDonald (31 years at the school), Sandy Sibley and Lori Van Orden (both 29 years), and Peggy Ray (14 years). As other teachers retire, more panels will be added to the waves. Both Wheeler’s children attended this school, too. “The heartfelt warmth surrounding this project adds a community vibe to the

You’ll also find Wheeler’s work at the entrance to the La Jolla High School Stadium, in the form of a mosaic medallion on the ground with the school logo that people walk over. She recalled, “For an entire summer my daughter, Kaitlin (LJHS class of 2015), helped me created the mosaic, piece by piece, with extreme precision. I wanted it to have the feel of an ancient Greek or Roman walkway where it looks like it was handmade, not machine-made, so it incorporates imperfect tile sizes. I hope the sports players, students and attendees feel like Roman or Greek Gods when they walk over it!”

PEARL PREIS PHOTOGRAPHY

The Teacher Legacy Wall at Bird Rock Elementary School, designed by Wheeler She has also been journeying back to ancient times in another art project, “The Mandala Series.” Mandala is a Sanskrit word that means “circle” and originates in Hinduism and Buddhism. Mandalas are used as healing archetypes and come in the form of concentric circles with a repeating pattern in the middle, offering endless creative possibilities for design. One of her clients asked her to create a three-foot mandala for a small sanctuary space in her backyard. “I was so excited to be able to make one for someone!” Wheeler exclaimed. “It looked so beautiful that I decided to make a series. One is hanging at Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, and I have one hanging in my meditation room.” She also

sells her sea and garden-themed mandalas at Chickweed on Cedros Avenue in Solana Beach. Wheeler says she uses nature, yoga and meditation to keep herself in an open and receptive state. She also believes in travel and new experiences to create a channel for creativity within. “I feel that creativity comes from a higher realm or state of

La Jolla Methodist Church Nursery School’s Bridget Musante and Tina Wynn with some students at the mosaic Donor Columns, created by Wheeler consciousness,” she explained. “And when you can dwell in that space, the inspiration flows through you.” When I ask what she considers her most important legacy in La Jolla, she answers eloquently. “My most important legacy would be creating beauty, harmony, and balance in the community that will spread into the world.”

2017 Las Patronas Jewel Ball nets $900K New members inducted, 2018 ball theme revealed at luncheon BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON as Patronas’ 2017 Jewel Ball, “Taking Flight,” held Aug. 5 at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club, netted $902,278 to distribute to San Diego nonprofits. The proceeds were announced at the group’s New Member luncheon, Oct. 20 at the La Jolla Country Club, where 12 women were welcomed into the La Jolla-based philanthropic organization. Ball funds raised will be distributed to these major beneficiaries: A Reason To Survive (ARTS), Center for Community Solutions, International Rescue Committee in San Diego, La Jolla Playhouse, Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center, National Conflict Resolution Center, Reuben H. Fleet Science Center, Scripps Mercy Hospital, Mercy Hospital Foundation, Urban Corps of San Diego, and Voices for Children. Dozens of minor beneficiaries will also receive funds. The new members are: Julie Bubnack, Kathrine Cassidy, Jessica Castagnola, Julie Garrie, Mio Hood, Megan Jones, Tammy Kearney, Andrea Kosky, Michelle Le Greca, Tiffany LaMarche, Keri Robbins and Sarah Winter. In announcing next year’s theme, Jewel Ball chair Jennifer Edstrom reflected on a trip she took to Mexico City when her husband (then fiancé) was trying out a new job he was considering. “It was one of those experiences that tested me. Every day, Matt would get up and go to work and I was on my own. So I explored the City by myself, visiting floating gardens and watching folkloric dancing,” she said. “While I was there, I was determined to visit Frieda Kahlo’s house. I went to what is now the Museo Frida Kahlo, but was once the house she and Diego Rivera built together, La Casa Azul. I fell in love with the space and the aesthetic they created there. La Casa Azul is eclectic, colors are saturated and contrasted. There is ancient artwork near paintings and murals that could grace the finest museums in the world. I was enchanted. In the end, Matt did not take the job in Mexico City, but I left there in love. “When I think about the members of Las Patronas and Frida Kahlo, I think there are a lot of similarities: We take what is rough and make it beautiful. We see needs in our community and we work to create beauty and strength out of them. Frida was the ultimate girl boss and Las Patronas has that same fortitude. For this year, Frida will be our Patron Saint, if you will, and the theme for the 72nd Jewel Ball is named for her final painting, ‘Viva La Vida.’ ” Viva La Vida is set for Aug. 4, 2018 at the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club.

‘Provoking Change’

University Art Gallery hosts its Fall 2017 show BY WILL BOWEN niversity Art Gallery (UAG) at UC San Diego is still open and going strong. It has exhibition funds for the 2017-2018 academic year, but after that, its fate is uncertain. The Visual Arts Department took steep budget cuts this year, and administration is pushing to turn the gallery into a classroom. For more than 50 years, UAG was the only place you could see important contemporary work. Over the years, many show openings

Coming to see the current show, “Provoking Change: A Visual Arts Alumni Exhibition,” and signing the guest book is a good way to acknowledge UAG’s longstanding value and contributions to our community and culture. “Provoking Change” will be on display through Dec. 7. Visual Arts MFA alumnus David Avalos returned to show his work, inviting in his entire extended family to the opening night reception, Oct. 12. Avalos spent most of his

time retaking photographs of his nieces and nephews, which he first shot 25 years ago for his mis*ce*ge*Nation Project Exhibit curator Tatiana Sizonenko tirelessly explained the works on display to all who were curious. “This show celebrates some 16 artists who came to study at UCSD from the early 1970s through the 1990s,” she said. “They all shared a desire to foster change by challenging the avant-garde canon of the ’60s. They made art that introduced multicultural voices, pointed out

women’s under-representation in the arts, and revealed the pressing histories of immigration, class and racism.” The show includes a colorful couch and wall hanging titled “Turkish Delight,” by Kim MacConnel, and a large blue wall shroud “Big Blue Chador,” by Robert Kushner — both pioneers of the Pattern and Decoration Movement. Also in the show are two paintings characterized by layered brushstrokes and drippy paint, from Hung Liu; a huge canvas of cows in a field, depicting the environmental impact of the agro business by Jean Lowe; and two paintings of family members by Heidi Hardin. There are also two photo-text installations by Fred Lonidier and Allan Sekula, plus a pile

of canvas-covered foam automobile tires by Brian Dick, who at one time turned his car and his room at home into art projects for public viewing. Dick, like a lot of artists in the show, was just following Allen Kaprow, founder of “art happenings,” with the dictum to “turn art into life and life into art.” In the back viewing room, there’s a video loop running titled “Waiting at the Soda Fountain,” by Susan Mogul. It’s a feminist parody of being “discovered” in Hollywood. Eli Eshel, a senior in the computer science department who works for the art department, served as the reception attendant. “I really like this show because of the diversity of creative media platforms — there is video, wall hangings, textual

FROM WALTER MUNK, B1 At home, Munk talked about the house’s history. In the late 1940s, a group of 19 forward-thinking Scripps Institution of Oceanography colleagues got together and bought 42 acres of Scripps Estates land for $42,000. They designated the canyon a common area, and subdivided the rest. “There was a fateful dinner at Roger Revelle’s, and we all drew lots for the properties,” Munk said. “I was No. 19.” He and his late wife, Judith, the artist/architect he met at SIO and married in 1953, were the first to start building. “We had no contractor,” Munk said. “Judy was in charge, and I did all the plumbing and electrical work. And Judy wasn’t just an architect; she knew how to mix cement. We had no money, so we went to the Bank of La Jolla, and asked for a $5,000 loan. The bank manager was ready to turn us down because we had no contractor, but when he came out and saw what we were doing, he gave us the loan.” The verdant hilltop, with its towering trees, took a lot of work. “There was nothing here then, no trees, no bushes,” Munk said. “We planted every one.” After almost 53 years of marriage, Judith died in 2006. Five years later, Munk married Mary Coakley, his current companion in life. “He’ll do anything to promote Scripps and encourage the next generation,” Mary said fondly. “That’s why there are all these centennial activities.” When asked what he felt were the high points in his life, Munk spent a few moments reflecting. Then, prompted by Mary, he offered: “Learning to predict waves. That work saved lives, and there’s no substitute for that.” After a brief pause, he added: “The success we had after Pearl Harbor came from working together. That’s how problems get solved. We must work together now, nationally and internationally. Our future depends on it.” He said his best 100th birthday present has been the outpouring of messages from people all over the world. “Some of them I haven’t seen for years,” he said. “And they all wrote that at least once I’d given them an answer that was useful at least once in their lives, and told me how it helped. What could be better?” Our interview was over. He was ready to get back to work.

Busting the Myths of Higher-Density, Mixed-Use Development

Last month, we talked about our excitement over our real estate development and investment division, and the possibilities it opens up for creating new, unique properties and use of space in San Diego. But we know that there are some stigmas that the phrases “mixed-use” and “higherdensity” evoke. Fortunately, studies have already been conducted between various organizations that represent builders and developers in conjunction with environmental organizations such as the Sierra Club, and they have found some good news to help assuage those concerns. Let’s break down some of the big myths behind mixed-use and higher-density development. Myth 1: Mixed-use housing means more people aren’t paying property taxes to support infrastructure

The truth? Sure, renters don’t pay property tax, at least not directly. But the apartment owners do, as part of their commercial real estate taxes. So the money is going into the city’s infrastructure. What’s more is that with an increase in urban density, less infrastructure is needed. The bigger problem is urban sprawl, which requires more infrastructure to support with new roads and expanded services (such as police and ﬁre, for example). Myth 2: Higher-density development puts a strain on public services, especially public schools The truth? The majority of families with children still occupy single-family homes. One study found that single-family developments average 64 children for every 100 units, but only 21 children per 100 units in garden apartments, and an even lower 19100 living in mid- and high-rise apartments. So who is living in mixed-use development? Young people, childless couples, and empty nesters make up most of the residents. In fact, Baby Boomers are relocating in droves to urban centers to lessen commutes and enjoy city living. Myth 3: But higher-density and mixeduse housing has to create more trafﬁc and parking congestion The truth? Actually, the opposite is true. Higherdensity development breeds much less congestion. Especially now, when walking, biking, and public transportation resources are experiencing a boom,

and even shared parking options are helping to prove that this myth is falser than a Lannister oath. Myth 4: Higher-density developments lower the property values of the surrounding areas The truth? According to extensive research, there is no real difference in rates of appreciation for properties located near higher-density development versus ones that aren’t. Myth 5: Higher-density, mixed-use development is only for lower income households The truth? A recent study showed that 41% of renters say they rent by choice and not out of necessity. And over the last decade, as urban centers are flourishing with new venues of culture and entertainment, people of every income group want a piece of that exciting and enriching lifestyle. In fact, the for the Baby Boomers flocking to urban centers, 90% of them say a big enticement is greater access to cultural experiences. Myth 6: Higher density means higher crime The truth? Again, the data doesn’t pan out. There is no significant difference in the crime rates of higher- and lower-density developments. Myth 7: You can’t “Go Green” when you go higher-density

The truth? Lower-density development actually increases water and air pollution, and urban sprawl is more taxing on natural resources. Most low-density land is used inefﬁciently, which contributes to the loss of open space and farmland. And developing in urban areas where the infrastructure already exists requires fewer resources. Myth 8: Higher density means a population explosion The truth? Not necessarily. In fact, higher-density development really just means developing properties that have an increase in units over what currently exists, not that the Burj Khalifa is going in next door. Every neighborhood will have different needs, and cities will grow as population densities shift. But that doesn’t mean that you should expect to walk out your door and into the world of Blade Runner. We believe that urban development has to happen responsibly, always keeping in mind the true heart of the community. That’s why the best investments in urban development come from within the community. Next month, we’ll give you an inside look on the latest exciting possibilities of mixed-use, higherdensity development and help you see what you get when you set up shop in an urban center.

Dinner raises $883,000 for Big Brothers and Sisters

he 55th annual Big Brothers Big Sisters of San Diego County (BBBS SDC) Gourmet Dinner, “Rockin’ Role Models,” grossed $883,000 for its one-to-one mentoring programs.

PHOTOS BY DANIEL K. LEW

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, performs a ‘not scary,’ Las Vegas-style stage show nightly at Knott’s Scary Farm. This is also her final year performing at Knott’s.

Here’s Johnny! ‘The Shining’ maze at Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights recreates iconic scenes from the classic film.

Theme parks offer Halloween events worth screaming about BY DANIEL K. LEW heme parks already specialize in themed experiences — and during the Halloween season — Knott’s Berry Farm, Universal Studios Hollywood and Six Flags Magic Mountain are the best places in Southern California to visit for thrills and chills. As night falls, these family-friendly destinations transform into PG-13 and adult-oriented Halloween haunt events filled with frightful mazes, scare zones and seasonal shows.

The best haunt event: Knott’s Scary Farm Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park is the granddaddy of Halloween events as the birthplace of theme-park-wide haunts. Now in its 45th season of producing a Halloween haunt, the creative team at the seasonally re-named “Knott’s Scary Farm” continues to dream up the most original, innovative and scary mazes at any theme park. Knott’s continues to up the ante with its three new-for-2017 mazes: “Dark Ride,” “Pumpkin Eater” and “Trick or Treat: Lights Out,” while six other returning mazes have also been “plussed” and enhanced. ■ Don’t Miss: Knott’s Scary Farm is the exclusive Halloween-season home to the legendary Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, who performs a Las Vegas-style stage show. After performing at Knott’s for decades, Elvira’s 2017 show is billed as her “farewell” and it showcases Elvira at her best: sexy, funny, witty, campy; she sings and dances up a storm! The titillating show pays tribute to Elvira’s legacy as the Queen of Halloween, while staying entertainingly relevant. She performs at 9 and 11:30 p.m. every night of Knott’s Scary Farm and the show is included with admission. ■ Best Maze: “Dark Ride” has guests walking through an abandoned carnival ride where creepy characters and sideshow freaks linger in the shadows. The set design and details are simply amazing and larger than life, as you follow the tracks of the decrepitated ride trying to find the exit. ■ Tip: Arrive early to beat the crowds and

the first maze to visit should be “Special Ops: Infected” since the line moves slower than other mazes. Unique to Knott’s, “Special Ops” places visitors in the middle of a “real-life video game” as soldiers recruited to stop the zombie apocalypse in an all-out war against the undead in this interactive experience. Armed with laser guns, groups of guests embark on a mission through sprawling city streets, buildings and subway tunnels in a post-apocalyptic setting. ■ Knott’s Scary Farm remaining dates: Oct. 26-31. Hours: 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. Thursday-Tuesday; and 7 p.m. to 2 a.m. Friday and Saturday. knotts.com

Be ‘in’ the horror movie at Universal Studios Universal Studios Hollywood’s “Halloween Horror Nights” immerses guests in a living, breathing, three-dimensional world of terror. The event features a new slate of film and television production-quality mazes, scare zones and a re-imagined “Terror Tram.” The 2017 Halloween Horror Nights haunted maze lineup consists of both classic-and-modern horror titles: “The Shining,” inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s classic 1980 psychological thriller starring Jack Nicholson; “American Horror Story: Roanoke,” based on the popular FX-TV series; “The Horrors of Blumhouse,” featuring iconic moments from “The Purge” movie franchise, “Sinister” and “Happy Death Day,” inspired by prolific filmmaker Jason Blum’s blockbuster films; “Insidious: Beyond the Further,” based on the upcoming supernatural thriller from the “Insidious” movie franchise; “Ash vs. Evil Dead,” based on Starz’s comedy horror television series; “SAW: The Games of Jigsaw,” inspired by the “SAW” film series and “Titans of Terror,” which unites classic slasher film villains, Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees and Leatherface; and “The Walking Dead” year-round attraction inspired by AMC’s TV series about human survival in the zombie apocalypse. ■ Don’t Miss: The all-new “Titans of Terror Tram: Hosted by Chucky” transports

guests into a nightmare of carnage on Universal’s world-famous studio backlot, pitting guests face-to-face with Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees and Leatherface and the infamous serial killer doll, Chucky. The Terror Tram drops off guests on the backlot for the chance to walk by the famous Bates Motel from “Psycho,” stand on the steps of the iconic “Psycho” house for a photo opp with Norman Bates, and walks through the massive “War of the Worlds” airplane crash scene — all the meanwhile seeing re-created scenes from Freddy, Jason and Leatherface films. ■ Best Maze: The set design for Stanley Kubrick’s “The Shining” is simply gorgeous; as it’s evident the maze designers went to painstaking lengths to recreate the look and feel of the Overlook Hotel as seen in the classic horror film, from lighting fixtures and wallpaper, right down to the pattern and color of the carpet. One will also see the likeness of Jack Nicholson, who plays Jack Torrance in the film, as scareactors wearing “Jack” masks threaten guests throughout the maze by swinging hatchets. The maze depicts key moments of the film, including ghostly appearances by the Grady twins, the elevator hall/blood flood sequences and the words “REDRUM” bloodily materializing on the walls. ■ Tip: Complimentary early entry for all Halloween Horror Nights ticketholders begins at 5 p.m. with the chance to visit three mazes at Universal’s lower lot before the event officially begins at 7 p.m. Lines for HHN are also notoriously long; upgrading to a Front-of-the-Line pass is worth every penny — or one might deal with 2-to-3 hour lines per maze. ■ Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights remaining dates: Oct. 25-29, 31 and Nov. 2-4, 2017. Hours: 7 p.m.-2 p.m. in October and 7 p.m.-2 a.m. in November. halloweenhorrornights.com

Magic Mountain: Thrills by day, frights by night Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia holds the reining title as the “Thrill Capital

of the World” with its 19 roller coasters. During the Halloween season, Magic Mountains raises its thrill factor with its “Fright Fest” nights. Filled with seven mazes, six scare zones and plenty of coasters, Magic Mountain’s Fright Fest is a unique haunt event, unlike anything else in Southern California. While other theme park haunts tend to close its doors to end normal operating hours, then re-open as a scarier experience, Magic Mountain operates differently. The park opens as usual in the morning. Then, at 7 p.m. on select nights, the park changes — an ominous announcement is made, and monsters are unleashed to roam the park as haunted mazes open for the night. Guests who have been there for the day are free to stay and enjoy the rollercoasters like Twisted Colossus, Goliath, X2 and Batman: The Ride — but in total darkness — and stroll through the scare zones. If visitors would like to brave the haunted mazes, they can purchase a wristband for access to all the mazes. ■ Don’t Miss: “Suicide Squad: The Six Flags Fright Fest Experience” is an incredibly themed scarezone — that is actually not scary — and based on D.C. Comics’ “Suicide Squad” movie and comics. Guests will find photo opps with characters like the Joker and Harley Quinn; while surrounded by a visually stunning environment filled with project special effects, fog and fire within a sketchy, urban cityscape. ■ Best Maze: “Aftermath 2: Chaos Rising” is an expansive tour through a destroyed wasteland, moments after a cataclysmic event. This maze has the wow-factor down pat with towering sets, fire and smoke effects, and the largest scareactor cast in the park. ■ Tip: Since Fright Fest is open all guests with regular admission or a season pass, the best deal is to purchase a 2018 season pass that also includes admission for the rest of 2017. ■ Six Flags Magic Mountain’s Fright Fest remaining dates: Oct. 27-31. Hours: 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 10:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. Sunday to Tuesday. sixflags.com/magicmountain
