A Pause That Refreshed

Art & Wine Fest raises $150K for La Jolla schools BY COREY LEVITAN he ninth annual La Jolla Art & Wine Festival drew more than 40,000 browsers and carousers to The Village last Saturday and Sunday, said organizer Sherry Ahern, and raised more than $150,000 for local public schools. “It was the biggest, the best one we’ve ever done,” Ahern said. “So many people came from all over San Diego County. All the restaurants and hotels were full. It was probably twice as busy as we’ve ever been.” Stretching along Girard Avenue from Torrey Pines Road to Prospect Street, booths displayed works from 160 artists. In addition, a tent sponsored by Geppetto’s Toys hosted art projects and science experiments for the kiddos. “A ton of La Jollans came out and many volunteered,” Ahern said. “I’m so grateful for everyone in La Jolla for supporting us.” Ahern said next year’s festival is already slated for Saturday, Oct. 13 and Sunday, Oct. 14. ■ See more festival photos on A18.

City Council unanimously approves Hillel Center $6.5M needed before construction begins

BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON After more than two hours of debate and public testimony — and 17 years of processing — the Glickman Hillel Center for Jewish Life was unanimously approved in San Diego City Council chambers on Oct. 3. District 1 City Council member Barbara Bry made the motion to support staff recommendations to approve all actions necessary to proceed with the construction of the facility.

Bry added two provisions to staff recommendations with her motion: one to prohibit future expansion of the Hillel facility and the other to form an advisory committee to address noise, traffic and parking (to expire within five years with an option to extend). The Hillel Center project, which would serve students of the nearby UC San Diego, would construct a three-building, 6,479 square-foot religious facility at 9009 La Jolla Scenic Drive North at La Jolla Village Drive.

Residents pull cops over for coffee talk

BY COREY LEVITAN La Jolla and University City residents got two hours of face time with officers of San Diego Police’s Northern Division during Coffee With a Cop, an informal gathering Oct. 4 inside the McDonald’s at 4260 Nobel Drive. Over free coffee and cookies, each resident grabbed a table with an officer or two to discuss whatever they wanted. Most had specific problems with neighbors, street parking and traffic congestion. But almost every conversation eventually turned to the strain placed on La Jolla and University City by their burgeoning homeless populations, and what cops could do about it. The answer: not much, since being homeless is not against the law. “We have a Quality of Life team here at Northern that consists of one sergeant and four officers who address quality-of-life issues throughout our entire division,” Lt. Erwin Manansala explained to University City resident Jan Price. “So if you have complaints about the criminal elements of the homeless population, that team is designed to deal with that. People who are committing burglaries and petty thefts, that sort of thing, that’s specifically what the team targets.” The proceedings were interrupted for a birthday celebration for community services officer Brandon Broaddus, who turned both 47 and beet red when the entire McDonald’s staff emptied out of the kitchen to sing “Happy Birthday.” “I will never tell you when my birthday is again!” Broaddus told a fellow officer.

Walk a Mile in Her Shoes

YWCA fundraiser will take on domestic violence

BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month (October), men and women, including La Jolla resident Sabrina Martucci-Johnson, will stand up to domestic violence — in heels. The YWCA of San Diego County will present its annual fundraiser, “Walk a Mile in Her Shoes,” 10 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 14 at Martin Luther King Promenade Park (Fourth and K streets) in downtown San Diego. The short walk is open to men and women, both of whom are encouraged to wear high-heeled shoes, to raise awareness for domestic violence and funds for survivors. Participation is $50 for adults, children and students $30, and a family package is $150. Martucci-Johnson said she began participating six years ago to help get the conversation started about domestic violence. “Even though this is a serious issue, it’s a very lighthearted event. People can wear whatever shoes that want, but some wear high-heeled shoes,” she explained. “It’s meant to bring awareness to a challenging issue, one that is difficult for people to discuss, in a fun environment.” The event itself includes family-friendly festivities, the walk (the duration depends on how comfortable you are in heels) and a post-walk party with food and music by Mojo Johnson. Providing a platform to talk about domestic violence — which, according to YWCA reports, affects one in four women and one in seven men in their lifetime — is a step toward broader awareness and lifting the stigma some people feel when faced with domestic violence. “There is this perception that only a certain type of person is affected, but domestic violence can reach all of our communities,” Martucci-Johnson said. “People think there is one type of victim, but its men and women, those of all economic groups, cultural, races. It can affect anyone. When you think about the statistic that one in four women will

had a dating or engagement relationship (California Penal Code Section 13700 [b]). In San Diego County, 16,719 incidents were reported to law enforcement in 2016, though the majority of cases are never reported due to the complex dynamic of violence within abusive relationships. Proceeds from Walk a Mile in Her Shoes benefit YWCA of San Diego County and its Becky’s House domestic violence programs, which provides a 24-hour crisis hotline, emergency shelter, transitional housing, legal assistance and integrated supportive services. Additionally, City Attorney Mara Elliott helped kick off Domestic Violence Awareness Month with an information and resource fair at the San Diego Central Library downtown. According to press material, the theme for this month is “It’s up to YOUth” because more than a million high school aged teenagers nationwide experience physical abuse from a partner each year. In particular, social media allows abusers to stalk, threaten and intimidate victims from cooperating with law enforcement and community support groups. The mission this month is to educate young people about healthy relationships, resource, and how to reach out to suspected victims is a key step in breaking the cycle and ending domestic violence. Elliott’s City website at sandiego.gov/cityattorney has resources for survivors of domestic violence. Among them, a 24-Hour Domestic Violence Hotline: 1 (888) 385-4657 (DV-LINKS) If you or someone you know are a victim of abuse, DVLINKS confidential counselors will help connect you with and an advocate. They will provide you with information on confidential shelters, counseling referrals, safety planning and other resources. Learn more about the Walk at bit.ly/ywcawalk

A scene from last year’s Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event experience domestic violence, just look at your circle of friends. If you have a circle of four friends, one of them could have experienced it. It’s way too common and we need to change that.” But, she argues, “until we speak up, that isn’t going to change. That’s part of the point of the walk, it gets people talking about it. “There seems to be a stigma because of the way society characterizes those who have been there and experienced domestic violence. Sometimes people fear that stigma and don’t reach out, but things change with awareness. There used to be a stigma for depression and people didn’t talk about it. That’s changed now. We have the opportunity to do the same about domestic violence. People can get help without feeling like it’s a reflection on them.” California law defines domestic violence as abuse committed against an adult or a minor who is a spouse, former spouse, roommate, former roommates, or person with whom the suspect has had a child or is having or has

FROM HILLEL CENTER, A1 The center will offer religious programming for Jewish holidays and festivals, programs relating to Israel as the Jewish homeland and provide community service opportunities. UC San Diego’s Hillel currently operates out of a house near the planned site, and will continue to do so until the new facility is built. At that time, meetings held at Hillel would move to the new site. Expected attendance would cap at 100 per day, and no more than 250 during special events and holidays. Those in favor spoke personally about the impact Hillel has had on their lives, including current UC San Diego Hillel executive director Rabbi David Singer, who said he “became a rabbi because of Hillel.” Proponents further argued the facility would serve as a visual, acoustical and physical barrier between the University and the neighborhood. Opponents stated their concerns with what they referred to as a “student center” near residential neighborhoods, and associated noise, traffic and parking. The project was voted down at the local community advisory group level, including the La Jolla Community Planning Association and La Jolla Shores Association, for several years. Bry, as the Council representative from La Jolla, said she sees both sides of the situation, including neighborhood concerns that Hillel is perceived as a student center. However, she said, “Hillel is clearly a religious organization and meets planning and zoning standards,” she said. In Council Chambers, many members

La Jolla Shores resident Janie Emerson speaks out against the Hillel project.

The unanimous San Diego City Council vote on the Hillel development

stated their support of the project. For example, District 7 Council member Scott Sherman said. “A lot of people have put a lot of time in this. At the end of the day, the applicant has met the requirements the City has asked of them. I know we’re all afraid of change … but at the end of the day, we don’t institute change with the intent of screwing it up. We implement change to make it a better place. I think Hillel will make the community a better place.” Of the decision, Rabbi Singer told La Jolla Light, “We are ecstatic that the City Council unanimously agreed that the Hillel Center … will be a benefit to our community and the students we serve. We cannot wait to move forward on this to significantly beautify the entrance to La Jolla and give our program the permanent facility it desperately needs.” He added the next step is to launch the capital campaign to raise the remaining

funds needed to build the facility. Of the project $15 million needed, Hillel has $8.5 million to date. Largely due to a $5 million donation from La Jolla resident and philanthropist Joseph “Chickie” Glickman. Singer added he would like the facility built “as quickly as possible” but that a timeline for construction has not been established. “We have spent a lot of time on this, and we don’t want another generation to miss out on the opportunity to connect with Jewish that Hillel provides them,” he said.

taxes on the land since its acquisition (it will not qualify for non-profit tax exemption until Hillel begins operating on that site). Former San Diego City Council member Jim Madaffer (2000-2008) testified at the Council meeting that the property was “blighted” and that there were “no plans for the property or value to the parks department.” However, in following procedure to build something on that property, UC San Diego Hillel applied to construct a facility that would have been nearly twice the size of what was approved on Oct. 3. The San Diego City Council seated at that time approved the original project in 2006, but a lawsuit was filed challenging the land sale and the Council vote was overturned. In 2008, higher courts determined an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) would SEE HILLEL CENTER, A8

Small Victories: Bird Rock Council grateful for infrastructure repairs BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON After months of requests and reports, two infrastructure needs in Bird Rock got some City attention last month: missing MTS bus benches and an uneven sidewalk that was identified as a tripping hazard in the spring. The Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) has been requesting these repairs be addressed via the City’s Get It Done app and e-mail requests, but it wasn’t until District 1 City Council member Barbara Bry attended the BRCC meeting last month that changes were actually made. Representing Bry’s office, Mauricio Medina spoke at the BRCC meeting Oct. 3 at Lupi restaurant. In January, MTS conducted a City-wide replacement and upgrade of the benches, but a few along La Jolla Boulevard that were removed were never replaced. Medina said the missing benches were installed since the board last met. He also said the uneven sidewalk on La Jolla Boulevard at Colima Street, which seems to have buckled at some point, causing part of the sidewalk to lift, would be repaired by the end of November. As a temporary measure, the buckled sidewalk was highlighted with orange paint and an A-frame barricade to draw attention and deter people from tripping. Medina said: “City staff let me know they are going to patch the sidewalk temporarily with asphalt and within 60 days (from Sept. 25), will replace the sidewalk completely.” He asked residents to keep an eye on the sidewalk and notify Bry’s office if that deadline is not met at (619) 236-6611.

know; if they plan to smash pumpkins, it is considered vandalism.” She said having police and security on site has, in years past, “made a huge difference” in terms of property destruction.

PHOTOS BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

As a temporary solution, the City patched the buckled sidewalk at Colima Street with asphalt to smooth the transition.

The netting that once surrounded the Midway Bluff vegetation has been cut down and piled in front of the overlook.

Despite the City attention to some repairs, another longtime request has seemingly tested the patience of one resident. BRCC secretary Barbara Dunbar reported the beige netting that surrounds the Midway Bluff vegetation has come down, but likely by an unauthorized resident. The board has been asking the City to take down the netting for months. “The netting was put up to help establish the plants atop the Midway Bluff, but it was supposed to come down a year ago. The netting has been pulled down, wadded up and piled next to the plants,” Dunbar said. “So that is not a satisfactory solution.” Medina said the City would continue to investigate the situation.

for Halloween, a busy and “lucrative for children” holiday in Bird Rock, BRCC president Andrew Ward reminded attendees (and continues to remind residents) that trick-or-treating hours will be 5:30-8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 31 and that residents are encouraged to turn off their lights at 8 p.m. to signify the end of holiday festivities. Dunbar added that police would be on site “with fairly strong presence” for a few hours. “Police want to remind the community they will enforce the social host ordinance, which states that anyone that permits minors drinking in their houses will be held accountable for the (minor’s) actions. “They are also looking for people consuming alcohol on the streets or in public places. Lastly, they remind people that vandalism includes defacing property, including pumpkins. “That’s especially important for teens to

In other BRCC news: ■ Halloween heads-up: In preparation

■ Short-term rental meeting update: With a huge turnout expected, the City Council meeting at which proposed short-term rental regulations will be voted upon will be held 1 p.m. Oct. 23 at Golden Hall downtown. Medina advised: “Get there early, especially if you intend to speak.” He said Bry drafted a short-term rental ordinance to regulate whole-house rentals in the City of San Diego, of which Medina the main takeaway is that “a homeowner could apply for a permit to rent out their whole house on a short-term basis (defined as anything less than 30 days) for up to 90 days in a year. If they are on-site and just renting a room, they can apply for a permit and do so on an unlimited basis.” Medina said Bry is still accepting input on the ordinance at barbarabry@sandiego.gov or (619) 236-6611. Four City Council members drafted a memo providing alternative regulations, which Medina criticized as being “more lenient” on the short-term rental industry. ■ Next meeting: The Bird Rock Maintenance Assessment District meeting, at which the 2017 report and 2019 budget will be discussed, will follow the regular BRCC meeting 6 p.m. Tuesday Nov. 7 at the La Jolla Masonic Lodge, 5655 La Jolla Blvd. birdrockcc.org

Boyle and her students take weather measurements outside their classroom.

La Jolla Elementary class warms to global issues BY COREY LEVITAN Joan Boyle said she thinks books only teach her third-graders so much about the environment; the rest they should learn by going outside and studying it themselves. On the grounds around La Jolla Elementary, she guides her students through the recording of weather measurements, checking them against 2010 base figures for the area and seeing if they demonstrate a warming trend. (They have so far, by an average of 9 degrees.)

They also planted a garden of rice as part of a lesson in sustainability. “What I’m proud of is the fact that these children are really starting to understand and make a difference,” Boyle said, adding that all La Jolla Elementary teachers recently agreed to take up one issue of sustainability with their students. The experiments are part of two Fulbright Scholarship teacher exchange programs Boyle signed up for this summer, for which she

spent six weeks in Japan and Thailand. Boyle and teachers from other cities and countries post results of the same experiments at the same time. “I cannot thank (Fulbright) enough for my opportunities and I am devastated that the government is now talking about reducing these funds, which in my mind would impact these opportunities and the education of U.S. students,” Boyle said. As part of the programs, Boyle’s students recently performed a trash clean-up at La Jolla

Shores. Instead of throwing out the trash — which included a Rubio’s salad spoon and a beer glass — they plan to analyze it to determine whether any was deposited by ocean currents and where it came from. Then they’ll turn it into recycled art to bring awareness of what pollution does to marine life and water quality. “I’m trying to get them to think globally,” she said. “Whatever happens here, it’s not in isolation.”

Radio silence on Parkway Sound Wall

Community Planners hear residents’ frustrations over lack of response from City BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON Fed up with the lack of response on the hoped-for sound wall along La Jolla Parkway, a handful of residents attended the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) meeting Oct. 5 seeking an update. Residents have requested the existing wall be extended to block more of the noise generated by cars traveling in and out of The Village and The Shores, and that associated studies be conducted, but they have not received any answers. As a last-ditch effort, residents Rayan Hourani and Mark Pretorius will make a presentation at the next LJCPA meeting, hopeful that a board vote of support will spur City action. Pretorius said he would like LJCPA to: 1) request the City perform an updated “engineering and traffic survey” and “noise contour survey” for La Jolla Parkway along the Ardath Road frontage; 2) request the City conduct a feasibility study to extend the noise and safety barrier, and budget and plan accordingly; 3) request the City better enforce the speed limit and fix the potholes on La Jolla Parkway (between Torrey Pines Road and I-5/CA-52) and prioritize the extension of this noise and safety barrier, based on their analysis of traffic, safety, risk and liability; 4) request the City explore and determine La Jolla Parkway’s eligibility for federal funding. In 2015, the proposal gained support at La

Some residents feel the sound wall along a portion of La Jolla Parkway is insufficient and should be extended. Where the wall ends, vegetation is the only noise barrier. Jolla Shores Association (which asked the City to add the sound wall to its list of capital improvement projects) and La Jolla Town Council, but at La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation advisory group, too many questions were raised for the board to vote. In May 2017, residents asked that the plans for the sound wall be readdressed. At the May LJCPA meeting, trustees voted to invite the appropriate City officials to a future meeting for a presentation and then a vote. The City did not respond.

In July, still with no response from the City, LJCPA voted to authorize writing a letter to the City requesting a presentation on the sound wall and related issues. Trustee Bob Steck drafted the letter, but reports he has not yet received a reply. Steck argued that sound wall supporters were “barking up the wrong tree” by pleading with LJCPA and that the “tree” they needed to talk to is the City. However, it may be for naught, as District 1 City Council member Barbara Bry’s field

representative Mauricio Medina said City staff does not have the resources to study the project. “This is not considered an active project so it’s difficult to assign someone to it. In working with different departments … we are trying to answer some of the questions brought forward, but right now, the City does not have the capacity to have someone (tasked with) this,” he said. Arguing there should be someone assigned to study the feasibility of the sound wall

extension, trustee Glen Rasmussen said conditions have changed so much since the sound wall was constructed and La Jolla Parkway has so much noise-generating use. Trustee Dave Gordon added he sympathizes with those who live there because the noise is “horrendous at times” due to traffic volume. LJCPA and La Jolla Shores Association trustee Dolores Donovan said when she last heard the proposal, the presentation was “very good” and had plentiful “technical information,” and she asked the applicants to return to LJCPA and have the board vote.

In other LJCPA news: ■ Steck president until March: Second vice-president Steck was elected president for the term ending in March 2018. LJCPA has been without an acting president since June when previous president Cindy Greatrex had to abdicate her seat for missing three meetings. In the interim, first vice-president Helen Boyden and Steck have shared presidential duties. However, the board voted to elect Steck formally. With the promotion of Steck to president, trustee Brian Will was elected second vice-president. ■ San Diego Triathlon gets green light: The board also heard, and voted to support, the San Diego Triathlon Challenge. The event is scheduled for Oct. 22 in Scripps Park, and brings challenged and able-bodied athletes to compete in a one-mile swim, 44-mile bike ride and 10-mile run. Proceeds benefit the Challenged Athletes

Foundation, which provides support to people with physical challenges, so they can pursue physical fitness and competitive athletics. ■ A “Shift” in thinking: LJCPA trustees and meeting attendees heard an informational presentation on the Shift San Diego platform, which launched in July and can be found at shiftsandiego.com Spokesperson Derek Danziger explained that Shift San Diego is intended to keep the community informed on all of the construction activity planned over the next five years in the UTC area, and ways to commute accordingly. “There is an estimated 50 construction projects happening simultaneously in this area. UC San Diego alone has 16, along with public and private developments and the Mid-Coast corridor project extension,” he said. Acknowledging that there would be significant traffic impacts as a result of these projects, he said an all-inclusive traffic solution needed to be found. Enter Shift San Diego. Another spokesperson Genevieve Fong added: “Instead of having to track down this information through four different websites, Shift is an aggregator of all that information so you have a central hub of information.” Resources include text alerts, tweets on upcoming projects, a construction map, alternative commuting options and more.

OPINION

OUR READERS WRITE Somebody must tackle the lack of parking issue in The Village of La Jolla I came through The Village around 2:30 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 7 to see cars lined up on La Jolla Village Drive all the way out to I-5. Two blocks of Girard Avenue were blocked off for the Art & Wine Festival with police directing traffic, so parking was eliminated on those two blocks. I thought, “Where are all those incoming cars going to park?” As you know, I’ve written many times regarding the parking situation in La Jolla. It is almost nonexistent some days. I’ve pleaded for someone to come forth and donate/sell land or space for a parking garage. I guess no one wants to put their name on a parking garage. We’ve been in business in La Jolla for 22 years at La Jolla Cove Gifts, 8008 Girard Ave. For some 20 years, there used to be 90 parking spaces just two doors down from us at 1020 Prospect St., now home to The Muse condominiums. There has been no parking at that location for the past two years. Elias and Tech, which ran the parking, used to have to double park cars in there when it was full! My wife and I wanted to have brunch at Duke’s and tried a few times to park nearby. Nothing was available at 10:30 Sunday morning. I finally pulled into the valet stand in front of George’s. The attendant told me they were not open until 11 a.m. ... empty parking spaces just sitting there. We also tried to park and go to Hennessey’s Tavern, but no parking was available. We ended up leaving The Village to find a place where we could park and have brunch. We’ve rented two parking spaces in the Brook’s Brothers building on Herschel Avenue for the past two years — but for our employees, not ourselves. Over the years, we’ve had businesses in Santa Barbara. That city has parking garages on both sides of State (Main) Street, plus the parking at the shopping center downtown. We also had four stores in Solvang and that city has five parking lots. Palm Springs has a big parking garage with meters and other parking lots. Evidently, the landlords in these towns were successful in obtaining parking for their tenants in their buildings. Hopefully, the new group in The Village called Enhance La Jolla/MAD, which promises to clean up The Village, will work on the parking situation, too. If our City Fathers think people are going to take the bus instead of their cars to come to La Jolla, they are NUTS! Clair Thelin

La Jolla’s parks should be kept public — period La Jolla’s public parks should all be kept PUBLIC. The parks should never have pay-to-enter events. The purpose of the parks is not to raise money for the “merchants” or for “good charitable causes” or even the City. The La Jolla Park & Beaches committee (LJP&B) should avoid placing itself in a position of judging which organizations can use the public park to the exclusion of the public. If the LJP&B committee does not adopt an absolute no-rent policy, they will have to judge which charities or organizations get use of the park for fundraising and which do not. Such an action will eventually lead to lawsuits and other

The service is slow, but the food is to die for! — I snapped this photo with the spirits of the season at Café Milano, 711 Pearl St. Kudos to the owner for giving us all something to smile about! — Vince Meehan troubles, and a string of headaches for the LJP&B committee. Events such as weddings, which pay a fee to the City, are different. They do not exclude the public; they tend to be much smaller, and they do not make money from use of the public facility. Concerts and other activities that are free and open to the public should be allowed, but possibly limited. The selection and scheduling (limiting) of these public events are the responsibility of the LJP&B committee. Keep our beautiful public parks PUBLIC. David Little

La Jolla sure has a lot of advisory boards Regarding “Alphabet Soup,” the list of La Jolla organizations in the Oct. 5 issue: Now we are 14 to govern La Jolla (in reality a neighborhood of San Diego) and the even smaller subdivisions of La Jolla — Bird Rock and La Jolla Shores. Many of these organizations seem to have duplicate and overlapping duties. No matter, it gives more people the opportunity to feel important and be big frogs in small ponds. And so it goes: more important people, more organizations, more meetings — but more trash on the streets, less and less parking, more high-end condos, more empty outrageously priced stores, larger potholes and cracks in the streets and sidewalks. Situation: Normal! IB

Centenarian count will shake up Social Security I read the article in the Oct. 5 issue about Norman Smith and his reaching 100 years old. That’s really wonderful. In that article there was a statistic stating that 22 percent of Americans are reaching the age of 100. As a statistician, I find this almost impossible to believe. Are you sure it isn’t 2.2 percent? I’m hoping for the misplacement of a decimal point. If the 22 percent figure is, in fact, correct, our nation is approaching a crisis in health care, as well as in Social Security and other areas related to greater longevity. Alan Feddersen Editor’s note: Your statistician career has served you (and us) well, but it’s not even 2.2 percent, the actual figure is .022 percent. We are enrolling reporter Corey Levitan in a basic math class. Thanks for setting us straight.

Children’s Pool Lifeguard Tower cost how much? I was shocked when I saw that the cost of the Children’s Pool Lifeguard Tower was $43 million in the article on page A3 in the Sept. 28 La Jolla Light. I’m wondering if the Light made a mistake and left out the decimal point in the $43 million — and that should have been $4.3 million? Am I the only person who noticed this? Maybe there will be a correction in the Oct. 12 issue. Linda Pequegnat Editor’s Note: You are correct! Never underestimate the value of a decimal point! The Children’s Pool Lifeguard Tower price tag: $4.3 million.

I lived in one of the ‘Munchkin’ houses In regard to the article about the “Munchkin” houses in the Oct. 5 issue … actually my uncle, James Scranton Trevor bought the top two Cliff May houses — 7447 and 7455 Hillside Drive — in 1935. He had moved with his wife, Helen, to La Jolla from Detroit after retiring from the family lumber business. They fell in love with the Cliff May designs. He bought a number of others over the years. My father, Walter M. Trevor, contracted tuberculosis in 1939 and the finest facilities to handle that disease were then in San Diego. My father was sent out to a sanitarium located in Mission Hills. James and Helen were living in one of the houses and were having fun decorating and furnishing both. (James was enchanted with Southwestern furniture and was constructing it as a hobby.) They were living in one of the houses and so when my parents moved out, we moved into 7455. I grew up there, but my parents sold it after I married in 1957 as they wanted a larger home. My aunt, Dorothy Trevor, also contracted tuberculosis. She was sent to Santa Fe to recuperate, but moved to La Jolla about the same time we did. She moved into 7447 and lived there until her death in 1993. Sadly, I sold that house in 1999 and it was subsequently torn down. Since Helen and Jimmy were now without a home, they brought a couple of other Cliff May houses in the Presidio Park area of San Diego. SEE OUR READERS WRITE, A26

Attempting to ditch La Jolla in an emergency, along with the town’s 47,000 other residents, means taking one of only eight ways out.

Escape from La Jolla!

Exit-route shortage threatens to worsen disasters BY COREY LEVITAN he geography that makes La Jolla so desirable to live in makes it considerably less desirable to escape from. Locked in by the Pacific on the west and unpenetrated hills on the east, La Jollans have only eight exit routes to choose from in an emergency — and that’s only if all eight are available. It’s a subject no one likes thinking about, but with the possibility of a North Korean missile attack now standing alongside La Jolla’s historic hazards — fires, earthquakes, landslides and tsunamis — it’s become more relevant. And that relevance grows with every new La Jolla resident. Acccording to a 2014 report from the Unified San Diego County Emergency Services Organization, although San Diego County has never faced the need for an area-wide evacuation, “analysis of county hazard profiles indicate that an evacuation effort involving thousands of individuals and impacting multiple communities is highly possible.” How are we supposed to rely on routes to escape with our lives that can barely handle an average rush hour? “Let’s be realistic,” said San Diego Police traffic officer Mark McCullough. “No matter what the incident is, the goal is going to be getting you to a place of maximum safety.” And exactly where that place of safety is, McCullough said, depends on the threat. If police determine the safest place is east of SDCCU Stadium, McCollough gave a for-instance, then the best route is to head down Soledad Mountain Road into Pacific Beach. If the problem is launched by Kim Jong-un, however, your best bet is probably not going to be separating your family from

Times estimated the price tag of a northbound I-5 exit off La Jolla Parkway at $50 million, which is $100 million today — and that doesn’t include the cost of satisfying all the additional environmental protections enacted since. As for the bridge, it’s long been opposed by residents at both ends who don’t want their driveways suddenly intersecting a major thoroughfare. Back in 2012, former District 1 City Council member Sherri Lightner noted the residential opposition and also stated that building such a bridge was “not possible with today’s environmental concerns.” In COREY LEVITAN addition, the Rose Canyon fault parellels I-5 between exits 23 and 26, situating both Here on La Jolla Scenic Drive North, you can see the ground graded for a bridge that construction proposals directly atop the most was planned in the ‘60s but never built. active fault in San Diego. nuclear fallout by only a layer of thin, to be situated too far above the freeway.)

24th Triathlon Challenge comes to La Jolla Cove, Oct. 22

BY JEANNE RAWDIN t’s become a tradition every October at La Jolla Cove, as thousands descend on the grass, in the water, and on miles of pavement beyond to hold the San Diego Triathlon Challenge, run by the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF) and sponsored by Aspen Medical Products. This year, CAF is offering something new — live streaming of the entire event for those who can’t attend. And for those who can attend, CAF will be hosting a new wheelchair skateboarding (WCMX) clinic the day before the event, as well as the usual adaptive sports clinics, a “Tour de Cove” stationary cycling marathon, a kids’ run and stretch, a 5K walk, and the Celebration of Abilities Dinner. The CAF goal remains the same every year: Provide access to individuals with permanent physical challenges who desire to live an active lifestyle. The triathlon helps CAF accomplish that goal. It all started in 1994 when 45 triathletes came to La Jolla Cove to participate in a fundraiser for Jim MacLaren, an amputee triathlete who became a quadriplegic after a second tragic accident while competing. The plan was to raise $25,000 to buy MacLaren an adaptive van to provide him with freedom and autonomy. More than $49,000 was raised that day. Beyond exceeding the goal, organizers realized that much more needed to be done for challenged athletes, and the annual San Diego Triathlon Challenge was born. Since then, CAF has raised more than $80 million and fulfilled more than 18,000 grant requests from challenged athletes across the country and in dozens of other countries.

Meet two participants

One such challenged athlete is 11-year-old Hunter Pochop from Vista, who was born with spina bifida. His mother heard about CAF when Hunter was four and he’s been doing the Tour de Cove stationary cycling marathon ever since. Hunter testified: “I’ve been a part of CAF almost my whole life! I won first place in the WCMX (wheelchair skateboarding) World Championships in Texas last year. I was so stoked when I won!” La Jolla hairstylist Tara Butcher survived

SHIGGY ICHINOMIYA

Racers take their mark. a catastrophic car accident in 2005, but lost her leg below the knee as a result. She heard about CAF from a friend who was also an amputee. “CAF has not only provided me with grants for my running legs, a road bike, and training, they’ve also provided a community of people and support,” Butcher said. “Living away from my family, the CAF community has become my family out here.”

Staying the course

The triathlon itself consists of individuals competing alone or on relay teams of three performing a one-mile swim, a 44-mile bike course and a 10-mile run. The teams spring from 200 physically challenged athletes, 550 able-bodied athletes, celebrities and sports legends. More than 1,000 challenged athletes participated in the triathlon in 2016, with 5,000 more supporters coming to watch and cheer them on.

Words commonly heard during the event include “inspiring,” “uplifting,” and “life-changing.” The fierce competition coupled with teamwork and camaraderie make it an event that’s hard to forget. One past attendee put it this way: “It breaks down your perceptions about what’s possible. I’ve talked to some of these athletes, and some say their disability is the best thing that’s ever happened to them. It’s allowed them to discard their fear, go deeper in relationships, and just enjoy life more fully. That’s amazing to me.” More children are attending the triathlon and participating in adaptive sports than ever before. According to Travis Ricks, senior programs manager for CAF, “the growing Paralympic movement, sponsor dollars, media exposure, and the societal shift toward a culture of inclusion have all contributed to an increase in adaptive sports participation.”

It’s hard not to be inspired when attending a Triathlon Challenge. And according to Laura Wolf Stein, CAF marketing director, that’s why people keep coming back. “Challenged athletes represent the core of the human spirit — hopeful, resilient and strong. We see so many people with stories of setback, serious accidents, or loss turn to hope and success in sports and in life,” she said. “The efforts and triumphs of our athletes leave us with a new perspective. With the right attitude and community of support, there is no challenge too great, no mountain too high. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest, not spent on the sidelines.” Those who participate or donate to the event help to fund adaptive equipment, coaching, training, competition expenses and mentoring to challenged athletes all over the world.

Has the La Jolla cross-town rivalry gone too far? The administration of The Bishop’s School and La Jolla High School jointly issued a statement last week about parent behavior at athletic events: “It has come to our attention that in several recent athletic

contests involving our respective schools, members of both our staffs have experienced unacceptable behavior by our students and fans. We, along with our athletic directors, are committed to ensuring sportsmanship, respect for others and great competition. The safety of students and fans is always our priority. To that end, together we ask and are grateful for your help in always promoting positive fan and spectator behavior.” It is signed “Bishop’s Head of School Aimeclaire Roche and La Jolla High School principal Chuck Podhorsky.” The notice did not disclose the nature of the offending behavior(s).

FROM OUR READERS WRITE, A22 In the late 1940s, someone wrote a spoof for the La Jolla Light (around Halloween) about munchkin houses in La Jolla. There were fables about the munchkins of the “Wizard of Oz,” and also tales of happy little people dancing in the canyons at night. I suspect my Aunt Dorothy added to the myth because due to her tuberculosis (of the spine) she was only 4-feet, 11-inches tall when she lived there. People would stop, and because she loved her home, she always invited them in. (Sadly she was robbed once because of it.) I’ve had people who meet me, and know where I lived as a child, say how thrilled my parents must have been to have me. I assure them, my father was over 6-feet-tall and my mother was tall for her generation. Anyway, I just couldn’t resist reminding you. The road

Everlasting memories of loved ones

Johnny Singh

August 30, 1930 - September 24, 2017 LA JoLLA — Johnny Singh passed away peacefully on the morning of September 24, 2017. He was born on August 30, 1930, in Brawley, CA to Sylveria and Phoman Singh. He was raised there and graduated from Holtville High School, where he was a standout track and field athlete. Early in life Johnny worked with his father on the family farm. After a short stint as the dock foreman for Southern California Freight Lines, he transitioned back to farming where he would grow cotton, wheat, alfalfa, bermuda grass, sugar beets and numerous vegetable crops. His passion and love

for farming endured for over fifty years. Later in life he found new interest in commercial real estate. His inherent knowledge of agricultural land propelled him to become a reliable resource for interested parties. one of the greatest

occurrences in Johnny’s life was meeting and eventually marrying his bride, Gloria Saikhon on April 19, 1952. They loved and cherished each other for over 65 years. They thoughtfully raised three children, Gerald (Cathy), Joleen Singh Struve and Bruce (Kari). Johnny and Gloria would later be blessed with five grandchildren Kylee (Nick), Bruce John (Courtney), Hunter, Katherine and Philip. Johnny is also survived by his siblings, Ray Singh, Mary Ann Baker, Rose McKenzie and Nellie Guerrero. Johnny was a member of Del Rio Country Club and the Brawley Quarterback Club (serving as president

of both organizations), along with the Brawley Stockmen’s Club, Elks Club, Rotary Club and a board member of the California Sugar Beet Growers. A celebration of Johnny’s life will be held Friday, october 13, 2017, at 11:30am, at All Hallows Catholic Church, 6602 La Jolla Scenic Drive South, La Jolla. In lieu of flowers a blood drive in Johnny’s honor benefiting Rady’s Children Hospital will be held on october 23 and 24 at Pioneers Memorial Hospital in Brawley.

Restrict short-term rentals to commercial districts Two opposing concepts envelop the Short Term Vacation Rental (STVR) debate: 1) home and 2) marketplace. Home suggests shelter, a place of protection, refuge from the hurly-burly outside. The marketplace is for buying and selling, competition, profit. We enjoy our homes as a haven from pursuits based on money. The ability to relax, let down your guard, express feelings openly is a quality-of-life value. The public servants who developed and approved San Diego’s zoning laws recognized the quality-of-life benefits in having a shelter, a living space apart from the City’s commercial demands. They separated land usage into residential and commercial zones and surrounded residential dwelling units — places to live — with protections, which they embodied in the City municipal code. They honored a hierarchy of values in which home supersedes the pursuit of profit. And “home” is not reserved to RS (single-family) neighborhoods. My RM-zoned condominium is my home and is as severely impacted by STVRs as any residential block in the City. Half of the 22 units in the complex are short-term rentals. The (havoc) caused by this commercial activity is exactly what the writers of the Municipal Code anticipated when they prohibited visitor accommodations in residential zones. City Council members who renounce the promise made to citizens by the current Municipal Code (they will vote on the STVR issue in Chambers, Oct. 23) accept the pursuit of profit as a higher value than the peaceful enjoyment of one’s home. Does that make our citizens proud? Rosalie Schwartz Pacific Beach

CRIME AND PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS Jewelry taken in three residential burglaries It is too early to confirm whether three residential burglaries that took place in La Jolla last month are related, police say. The burglaries were reported within half a mile of each other, on the same day. The mode of entry and items taken were similar in all three instances. “The MO (modus operandi) is there, but no suspect description on any of the incidents,” said San Diego police officer Billy Hernandez. The burglaries were reported in the Country Club and Muirlands West neighborhoods on Saturday, Sept. 30 — 4:15 p.m. on the 6800 block Country Club Drive, 5 p.m. on the 6900 block of Fairway Road and 8:52 p.m. on the 6800 block of Paseo Laredo. In all three instances, the suspect(s) had left the scene prior to police arriving. Elaborating on these reports, Hernandez said in the Paseo Laredo burglary, “unknown suspect(s) forced entry through a back glass door of the residence. The suspect(s) took an unknown amount of jewelry and a wallet,” he said. On Fairway Drive, sometime between 5 and 10:30 p.m. “suspect(s) entered the residence by breaking a glass door. The suspect(s) took an unknown amount of jewelry.” Lastly, in the Country Club Drive incident, sometime between 4:15 and 11 p.m. “suspect(s) entered the residence through an unlocked door and took an unknown amount of jewelry.” San Diego Police Department Northern

Division can be reached at (858) 552-1700.

Pipline bursts in University City, Monday, hundreds without water City crews working to repair a broken water main in University City discovered a second ruptured pipeline Monday, Oct. 9. Workers got the second water main shut off about 9:40 p.m., leaving 500 to 600 customers without water service in nearby apartment buildings, Arian Collins, spokesperson for the City Water Department told The San Diego Union-Tribune. Only five customers were affected by the first water main break, which began to flood a stretch of Regents Road near Nobel Drive about 3:30 p.m. There were no reports of flooding in nearby homes. Crews were repairing the 10-inch pipeline for recycled water when they uncovered a leak on a nearby 16-inch concrete water main, Collins said. He did not know how long it would take to complete the repairs or restore water service. Water wagons were available to provide affected customers with potable water, Collins said. The cause of the break is under investigation.

Smoking leads to assault with car A man seen smoking in his car on the

7000 block Caminito Valverde (less than a half mile from the Paseo Laredo burglary mentioned in the previous crime bulletin) nearly struck a resident of that block with his car, after he was asked to stop smoking. Police report the smoker was asked to stop twice in one week by area residents, but reacted violently to the multiple warnings. San Diego police officer Billy Hernandez said around 8:40 a.m. Sept. 22, “the victim confronted a male smoking inside his parked vehicle and asked the man to stop smoking in his community. The suspect refused and the victim called police,” and the suspect left the scene prior to police arriving. One week later, at 10:43 a.m. (Sept. 29), the victim once again saw the same man smoking inside his car. The victim “approached him and asked him to quit smoking. This time, the suspect backed his vehicle and almost struck the victim. The victim called the police and filed a report. No one is in custody.” If you see a suspicious person or vehicle in the neighborhood, report it to the area Neighborhood Watch captain, nextdoor.com or to the San Diego Police Department non-emergency line (619) 531-2000.

Plein air exhibit brings ‘Impressions of California: Land & Sea’ to library

It is on display in the Library’s Community Room, but an opening reception is set for 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 15 at the library, 7555 Draper Ave. The art exhibit will remain in place through Jan. 20, 2018. The sixth annual “Fresh Paint” show, themed “Impressions of California: Land & Sea,” features 37 paintings from 14 artists: John Cosby, Gil Dillenger, Mark Fehlman, Catherine Grawin, Robin Hall, Calvin Liang, Eric Merrell, Rita Pacheco, Joe Paquet, Randall Sexton, Bryan Mark Taylor, Charles Waldman, Toni Williams and Jeff Yeomans. “These plein air artists have the mission of depicting California, which becomes a bit like a historical record. When you think about it, early California plein air artists at the turn of the century gave us a record of how California once looked: The Irvine Ranch (community) doesn’t look like a ranch anymore and Orange County, which used to be all orange groves, doesn’t look like it did then either. “These new works are not only beautiful paintings that reveal what California looks like today, but they could be of value to posterity later on,” said Patricia Jasper Clark, director of La Jolla Library Arts and Events The “Fresh Paint” exhibit, which is the flagship show and sale for the library art program, features landscapes that depict San Francisco skylines, northern California forests, La Jolla seascapes and more. And the artists are just as diverse. “This is the one show a year that we cull from the whole state,” Jasper Clark said. “In other shows, we try to reach out to local emerging artists, but for this one, we wanted the crème de la crème of landscape painters from up and down California. We are very fortunate to have the quality of work that we do.” One of the artists, Toni Williams, has participated in each of SEE PLEIN AIR EXHIBIT, B8

Is Bry your original family name?

It’s an acronym. It stood for Ben Rabbi Yisroel. It’s German. I’m Jewish and my family is from Germany, Hungary and Romania, but my father’s side shortened it when they came to the United States.

How much did you love brie-cheese jokes as a kid?

I don’t know if I even knew what brie cheese was growing up. Those were very different times. The world was much more parochial and I was in a suburb of

Philadelphia. I didn’t eat a croissant until I was in my 20s.

What did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be a playwright. I wrote little plays and skits that we would perform at school or the house. I did a parody of George Orwell’s “Animal Farm” with children taking over the world instead of animals. It was a combination of that and “Lord of the Flies.” We staged that in junior high.

You ended up a different kind of writer.

Hoping for a cure for colonoscopies

testimonials from people whose screening colonoscopy saved their lives. I get it. In fact, Olof and I have each had cancer, he twice and I once, that we would probably be dead from were they not caught early. But in none of those cases did we have to have our colons blast-capped by electrolytic TNT to find out. Colon cancer is the second most deadly cancer. I just wish the search for a less invasive way to diagnose it were the second leading objective of medical research. Forty million Americans over 50 would thank you. As Olof and I know too well, these procedures have risks. You are, after all, dealing with an older population. Each of us has had one colonoscopy that went normally, which is to say, was merely abjectly miserable. But each of us has had one that went horribly wrong as well. When you sign the consent form, you are usually on a gurney at the surgical center decked out in your backless hospital gown and hooked up to an IV, practically delirious from 24 hours of starvation and a 14-hour intestinal power wash. The Grand Slam breakfast at Denny’s, extra side of bacon, is only an hour away. So initializing all those little boxes about how there’s one chance in 1,000 of a perforated colon, massive

Colonoscopy is a test in which the doctor looks at the patient’s colon and rectum to find tumors, ulcers or other abnormalities. he clarified that those would be a CT scan, or hopefully, the perfecting of DNA testing of the stool, still in development. There are already “virtual” colonoscopies but they still require the euphemistic “bowel prep” (an experience which gives new meaning to the term “all-nighter.”) You just don’t have to be subjected to the other ultimate euphemism, the “digital optic instrument” (video cam in locations and directions never intended by nature). If you’re considering cancelling your colonoscopy because of this column, don’t. We’ve already used up all the bad odds. No one should die of colon cancer. But seriously scientists: one day you will be over 50 if you’re not already. Forty million American’s colons are counting on you. — Inga’s lighthearted looks at life appear regularly in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

cientists of the world: Want a guaranteed Nobel Prize? Find an alternative to colonoscopies. Seriously, you will have the world worshipping at your feet. There would be mass rallies of ecstatic oldies dancing in the streets, pouring jugs of GoLytely into sewer drains. For the uninitiated, GoLytely is the citrus-flavored battery acid that patients are required to drink to cleanse their intestinal tract of anything they might have consumed in the last 15 years. There’s an historic French phrase that has nothing to do with colonoscopies but should be on the label of every bottle: “Après moi, le déluge.” It is a rite of passage that on your 50th birthday, you open your mailbox to find an AARP card and an appointment for a screening colonoscopy. Congratulations! You’re old! And you may have cancer of the pooper! By American standards, people over 50 are supposed to have a screening colonoscopy every 10 years. I say American standards because a good friend who lives in Sweden asked her physician about getting one. He laughed and said, “That’s only in America.” We are so lucky! Is it too late for apply for Swedish citizenship? (Their colon cancer death rates are only marginally worse than ours.) I predict that I will get all manner of

hemorrhage, or stroke is no contest. When I talked a reluctant Olof into a routine colonoscopy 16 years ago, he’d already had cancer once. So he did the procedure and left the next morning on his scheduled business trip to Dallas. Twenty-four hours later, he was in the intensive care unit at Baylor Medical Center where he spent five days. When I was persuaded to have a screening colonoscopy by my primary care doctor four years later, I debated going to Olof’s doctor. After all, if the odds are 1 in 1,000, Olof had used them up so unless this guy had done more than 999 colonoscopies in the interim, he was the safest choice in town. But ultimately I decided to try someone else and the procedure went miserably normally. As did Olof’s second screening colonoscopy five years ago with this same guy. By almost-70, I should be doing my third screening colonoscopy according to American gastroenterology income standards. Given that everyone in my family dies of cancer (although neither Olof nor I have a family history of colon cancer) I was persuaded to do an (overdue) second one. But unlike the first one, this one did not go well, not the least of which was that my blood pressure soared into stroke range. The gastroenterologist summoned Olof back to where I was recovering, the Grand-Slam-breakfast-extra-bacon now a nauseating fantasy, and said, “I am recommending that your wife never have a colonoscopy again.” His report recommended “alternatives.” Wait! There were alternatives? Why was I hearing about this NOW? Speaking with the doctor several days later,

ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON

District 1 City Council member Barbara Bry reads ‘Can you make a scary face?’ by Jan Thomas as the guest of honor at La Jolla Library’s storytime Oct. 2 to launch the ‘1,000 books before Kindergarten’ literacy program. FROM BARBARA BRY, B1 learning different things every day, and I liked putting it together into a story. After business school, I got hired at the Sacramento Bee and then the L.A. Times as a business writer. I covered the Public Utilities Commission, I covered housing, I covered financial institutions. I liked it a lot.

How did you get into politics?

Young pirate-in-training Frederic can’t wait for his 21st birthday, the day his erroneous pirate apprenticeship ends…or does it? A swashbuckling fun and fan favorite about love and loyalty! Add zany laughs, patter songs, and catchy tunes and you’ve got Gilbert and Sullivan’s familyfriendly operetta with a rare opera ending—nobody dies!

People have hobbies. My husband plays golf, he sails, he skis. People collect stamps. My hobby is organizing things. My husband and I have an investment company together, and our office was in La Jolla Shores on Avenida de la Playa. My husband is still there. The City had to do the same work over and over because they didn’t get it right the first time. And I’m looking out my window at the street being torn out and all the merchants being inconvenienced, and I’m thinking, ‘I can’t find the cure for brain cancer, but fixing the streets is something the City should be able to get right.’

How did you end up a La Jollan?

It was May of 1977 and the Sacramento Bee sent me to cover a builders convention in San Francisco. I met my first husband there, and he was a San Diego real-estate developer. We started dating, then the L.A. Times offered me a job and I moved to L.A. I lived up there during the week and flew to San Diego on the weekends, on a little commuter airline called Imperial that flew every half hour from San Diego to LAX. I moved to Mission Beach in 1978, got married in 1980, and then moved to La Jolla when my oldest daughter was two.

Why La Jolla?

PHOTO: KINGMOND YOUNG

We wanted to be in a yard, we wanted to live in a neighborhood. We were living on the boardwalk on Mission Beach, which was

fun, but we had a dog and a child. We found a house in La Jolla and bought it.

You have a 3-year-old grandson and a 6-month-old granddaughter. How is grandparenthood different than parenthood?

I love it, it’s the best thing, and I’m very blessed they live about three miles from me in La Jolla, so I get to see them a lot.

People say it’s all of the positives of being a parent with none of the responsibilities.

Right — although I do change diapers. You can call my daughter and fact-check that.

Which Monkee?

Monkees? No. It was which Beatle, and the answer is Paul. He was the cutest. He wrote the best songs. I was in junior high school when they first came to the U.S., and I remember being at a slumber party with a lot of my girlfriends, watching them on TV. This was before I knew anything about Paul. I just went, ahh, I like him the best.

Name a current TV show you’re obsessed with.

“Ray Donovan.” Ray is not a good human being. He beats people up, he kills people, he cheats on his wife. But he’s a complex character. He has a tortured past and he was abused by a priest growing up. In one of the episodes, someone asks Ray why they should pay him all this money to do this for us, and he says, “I change the story.” And that’s what I try to do in politics, change the story.

What’s something personal that nobody knows about you? I have good balance. I’m very good at yoga. Does that make me a well-balanced person?

Pets Blessed in Honor of St. Francis

Bishop’s tradition invites students to bring animals to school

he Bishop’s School’s Blessing of the Animals is held in association with the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, which falls on Oct. 4. The feast commemorates the life of St. Francis, who was known as the patron saint of animals. It is a popular day for churches and clergy to “bless” pets, and we have held this event at Bishop’s for more than 10 years. All 800 Bishop’s students (plus faculty and staff) were invited to participate along with their pets. — From Bishop’s School reports

the “Fresh Paint” shows and painted the piece that became the poster for the event. “It’s a La Jolla landscape,” she explained. “It was done near the Scripps Pier in the late afternoon. The late light was hitting the eucalyptus trees.” In addition to the excitement for creating the poster art, Williams said she is thrilled to be sharing company with the other artists. “The artists participating are very well known and prestigious. There is a lot to be said for them,” she said. “It’s always a beautiful show, but there is a real variety of work this year.” Artist Mark Fehlman is exhibiting for the fourth year. “It’s going to be a fabulous show,” he said. “It’s all about the beauty of our California environment. It’s all about an artist’s view of California and capturing that Southern California light.” One of the pieces Fehlman submitted might be a familiar sight to some – Boomer Beach in the early morning. “I’ve painted it lots of times. But this time, I feel like I captured the morning light, which is very different because it creates lots of shadows on the beach. I played with the shadows created by the cliffs. But it was a beautiful morning. A lot of people like to walk that way along the water and I tried to capture that special time of day.” He added, “In general, through plein air painting, you are trying to capture the special quality of that moment in time. In La

Jolla especially, you get so many types of light depending on time of year, time of day, whether the marine layer has come in, etc. So what I try to do with my work is capture that moment in time you cannot capture with a camera and give the viewer a glimpse of that moment.” The “Fresh Paint” exhibit is one of four shows the Art Committee produces annually. Jasper Clark said the others are a photography, contemporary art and still-life exhibit. Interspersed with those are other one-off shows. “The art program at this library really has evolved and started under (former branch manager) Catharine Greene because we had this wonderful space she wanted to elevate to better serve our patrons,” she said. “We formed a small art committee and have worked to produce quality shows ever since. We are all volunteers and we don’t have a big budget, but we try to put on a nice reception for each show. We do what we can to get it done and it’s a labor of love. “We hope the community becomes increasingly aware that we have these shows and they will be encouraged to stop by the library to see what’s on display, because they will not be disappointed. We have raised the bar.” She added the committee welcomes feedback from patrons. The exhibit is free and open to the public during library hours: 12:30-5 p.m. Sunday; 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday; 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, at 7555 Draper Ave. (858) 552-1657. lajollalibrary.org

A gut reaction: The magic of prebiotics

ou know you’re really getting old when a group of girlfriends get together for a casual lunch, and the topics of conversation revolve around recent or upcoming procedures, joint ailments, skin disorders and intestinal complaints. One friend mentioned how prebiotics had eased her digestive issues. My ears perked up, and I immediately corrected her, thinking she meant “probiotics.” But these two close cousins have a symbiotic relationship helping create and maintain a healthy, happy gut. Both probiotics and prebiotics are allies in keeping the colon well oiled, lubed and running smoothly. The former are living microorganisms, the friendly kind that take up residence in the gastro tract performing assorted housecleaning duties to dial up digestion and boost the immune system. Probiotic powerhouses, including luscious Greek style and goat-based yogurts have a rich store of live cultures, especially lactobacillus and acidophilus, while refreshing and slightly sour kefir, a fermented yogurt beverage is packed with antioxidants and billions of colony-forming units. For savory palates, load up on sour dill pickles; sauerkraut, particularly the fresh refrigerated kind with a bigger bang of friendly flora; spicy kimchi, a Korean staple of fermented

cabbage; or miso soup made from fermented soybean paste that balances digestion while adding a dose of immune-boosting lactobacilli and bifidus bacteria. Or do tempeh, an ancient Indonesian food made from fermented soybeans and shaped in a densely-packed patty, much like tofu. To wash it down nicely, kombucha tea (although enjoyed for centuries) has recently been hailed as a new favorite refresher to boost energy and provide a sense of wellbeing. A culture of yeast and bacteria is blended with the sweetened tea to provide a fermented cup of full-bodied fizz. And since probiotics need to eat heartily for sustenance to maintain a healthy and efficient colon, that’s where precious prebiotics come in to play. They are the undigestible plant fiber that provide a food source for their intestinal roommates, and provide bulk to keep the constitution humming. So amp up your supply of prebiotics best found in the following foods: ■ Chicory root, an ancient Egyptian cure-all lauded today for its anti-inflammatory properties, is high in inulin, a diabetic friendly carbohydrate fiber. Food producers extract this magical ingredient and add it to assorted items from ice creams and yogurts to baked goods and

power bars. So read labels judiciously, and choose products containing the Herculean prebiotic fiber. With delicate nuances of mocha, chicory root is also ground to a fine powder and used as a coffee substitute without the jitters of jo. ■ Jerusalem artichoke or sunchoke, known by the moniker “fartichoke” for its high fiber content and flatulence-causing power, is actually a member of the sunflower (not the artichoke) family. Resembling a gnarly ginger root, the Jerusalem artichoke adds a prebiotic and mineral oomph to salads, dips, soups, rostis and sauces. Or steam, roast, sauté, bake or stir-fry for a low-glycemic substitute for potatoes. Check out pastas containing the power root for a nutritional and palate change up. ■ Garlic, the antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory sulfuric super food practically good for everything except decoding Snapchat, is also a prebiotic darling. So add this “stinky rose” to everything from hummus, guacamole and yogurt dips to soups, sauces, and vinaigrette dressings. ■ While onions of all manners are also a good source of gut fiber, leeks add a delicate and breath-friendly addition to green salads, chilled soups, and toppings for burgers, grilled wild caught fish and chicken. ■ Dandelion greens pack a prebiotic punch, along with a rich store of calcium, iron, blood and bone boosting Vitamin K and eye enhancing Vitamin A. While these leaves tend to be slightly bitter, a quick immersion in boiling water will do the trick. Add greens to sandwiches, casseroles, stews, herbal teas, or concoct this warm, wilted salad to make your taste buds and gut sing.

Warm Dandelion Greens Salad ■ Ingredients: • 1 bunch each of baby spinach and dandelion greens (washed and trimmed) • 1 small red onion, diced • 2 garlic cloves, minced • 1 heirloom tomato, cubed • 1/3 cup almonds, toasted and sliced ■ For the dressing: • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil, and 2 tablespoons for sautéing • 2 tablespoons cider, champagne or white balsamic vinegar • Juice from one Meyer lemon • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard • 1 tablespoon honey ■ Method: In a large salad bowl, blend greens and tomatoes. In a skillet, sauté onion and garlic in two tablespoons of oil until translucent. Whisk in dressing ingredients, heat for 2 minutes. Toss with greens. Sprinkle almonds on top. Serve warm. — kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

Who says there’s no science to fashion? FROM SALK INSTITUTE REPORTS owns inspired by scientific images and conceived by aspiring fashion designers were modeled during the Salk Women & Science Design and Discovery Fashion Showcase at the Salk Institute, Oct. 4. More than 300 people attended the inaugural

event, a collaboration of Salk’s Women & Science and San Diego Mesa College’s Fashion Design programs, intended to raise funds for biological research. From sweeping to sleek, feathered to fluorescent, the 13 innovative fashions represent the science conducted by researchers at Salk in

the areas of brain function, cancer, circadian rhythms, gene editing and motor control, among others. Mesa College’s design students partnered with the researchers last spring, touring Salk laboratories and learning about the science behind the gala gowns they were tasked with designing.

Preserving La Jolla’s Historic Architecture while Moving into the Future

While San Diego isn’t particularly well known for its distinctive architecture, La Jolla is home to some incredible examples of both classic and modernist buildings. In addition, the Village of La Jolla contains pockets of historic homes that have survived the overall expansion and subdivision of the neighborhood and region.

Notable structures here include the La Jolla Women’s Club, designed by one of the preeminent Modernist architects, Irving Gill, and the historic Spanish-School style La Valencia hotel, long an icon on La Jolla’s oceanfront. Up on the hill, La Jolla Mesa houses the iconic Salk Institute and the Geisel Library at UCSD, two incredible buildings with forward-thinking, almost futuristic designs.

On the residential front, La Jolla is home to is the historic Camino de la Costa, a street that boasts magniﬁcent yet understated homes, most of which are thoroughly modern, yet borrow heavily from San Diego’s past. Looking to the future, many local people worry that new development and evolving technology will cost La Jolla some of the charm that makes this one of the country’s most prestigious neighborhoods. But while this fear exists whenever, and wherever, a community deals with change, La Jolla has a history of effectively adapting to the latest trends and styles. Just look at our history: La Jolla’s homebuilders originally drew from the Spanish Colonial style and mission architecture, building with stucco, wood columns and red tile roofs. Local architects also borrowed the hacienda style from Mexico, and these two styles dominated even into the 20th century. Then, from the mid-1800s until the turn of the 20th century, Victorian-style homes proliferated, before metamorphosing into La Jolla’s vibrant arts and crafts movement, during which craftsman-style homes became all the rage. In turn, this style gave way — evolved — into smaller versions of craftsmen homes, beach bungalows, creating an image that possibly has

deﬁned La Jolla architecture more than any other. Building on La Jolla’s beach-chic aesthetic, the neighborhood saw a boom in Mid-Century Modern architecture in the 1950s, 60s and 70s, a style that once again developed the look of the community. Today, somehow, all of these eclectic styles coexist, with some borrowing from the others. Even La Jolla’s newest and grandest mansions now incorporate much of the look of the old styles, quietly hiding practical, modern features under the glamor and style of more classic architecture. Of course, technology is always changing the way we build, and the debate over local architecture in the future will be about more than just arches versus straight lines. Most homes are now being built with sustainability, green building and technology at the core of the project, transitioning La Jolla into a new architectural phase with eco-consciousness as the guiding philosophy. Not so sure? Even homeowners who are skeptical or hesitant about smart homes likely already have smart appliances, or utilize their smart devices, such as tablets, to operate their entertainment systems, HVAC or security systems.

San Diego, especially La Jolla, has always adapted to blend new designs with traditional ones. The very concept of “traditional” La Jolla architecture has always involved adaptability. In order to appeal to the public, architects and designers will have to continue to appeal to new tastes while retaining and protecting buildings that fall under historical preservation. And, as has been the case throughout La Jolla’s rich history, some of the best breakthroughs in style and function come from blending competing needs. With La Jolla’s storied past in stellar and forward-looking architectural designs, the charm and beauty of the Jewel will remain constantly evolving, and always exciting. At GDC Construction, we have a long tradition of preserving and renovating San Diego’s storied past. And we’re experts in blending that rich past with the very latest in modern design, technology and comfort. Let us help you make the balance between the past and the future on your next construction or renovation project.

African tulip tree stuns with gorgeous blooms

t’s the beginning of fall here in San Diego, but our temperatures are still lovely and warm. This amazing climate allows us to have beautiful flowering trees and shrubs all year round, even as the weather starts to cool. One stunner of a tree is the African tulip tree (Spathodea campanulata). It is blooming right now around La Jolla and throughout San Diego. Native to sub-Saharan Africa, this tree can become invasive in more tropical climates than ours. Also called the nandi flame tree (for the bright red blooms), it grows to about 30-feet tall in our area. The name of the tree is due to the shape of the beautiful clusters of red (usually) or yellow flowers that sit like cups on top of the branches, reaching for the sky. The frilly blooms

measure several inches across and sit vertically on the branch. They bloom in clumps, clustered together around liquid-filled buds that are shaped like fuzzy claws. Because the blooms and buds hold water and nectar, these trees are very attractive to birds, bees and hummingbirds. Also, if the buds are squeezed just right, they can send a shot of watery nectar up to 10 feet! Once the blooms have finished, they drop off the tree, leaving a carpet of flowers on the ground below. Depending on how quickly the weather cools, these sensational trees may continue to bloom late into the fall. See if you can spot them as you travel around the neighborhood!

Emily Young of La Jolla (right) works to improve health care in eastern Africa.

Young La Jollan saving lives in Africa

Cheap motorcycle ambulance designed by 2014 La Jolla High grad BY JEANNE RAWDIN The design is simple but effective and, most importantly, cheap. A trailer is assembled locally from spare parts, steel, wood and canvas. It’s attached to the back of any existing motorcycle. It only costs about $500, and it solves a major double-whammy problem in eastern Africa: the inaccessibility of health care and the lack of transportation to health care centers. The invention came out of MIT’s Development Lab for international projects, a team that includes 2014 La Jolla High School grad Emily Young, currently an MIT senior majoring in mechanical engineering. Young’s team partnered with a Tanzanian non-governmental organization called Olive Branch for Children. “This organization works in the fields of health care and community development, so they deal with this issue often,” Young said. “They gave us photos, stories and data to inspire our product-development process.” She and her team have built three prototypes and plan eight more over the next year. They’ll be deployed to villages near Mbeya, the fifth-largest Tanzanian city, where a manufacturing facility will be built next year. Then they’ll be distributed to other regions in Tanzania and to other

countries in Africa. The expansion will be funded by MIT grants and by Olive Branch for Children. “The medical resources do exist,” Young said. “They are just out of reach for many villages. People die, lose children and suffer immensely because of this issue.” Young grew up hearing her parents discuss their work in medicine and psychology, and their passion for helping others. Now, she’s developed the same passion. She witnessed the need for these vehicles first-hand during two separate trips to Tanzania. “I’ve become very passionate about increasing accessibility to health care in those remote areas,” she said. “There is a massive gap between the rural and urban areas, and an even larger one between rural and industrialized international cities. Although she appreciates her education and upbringing in La Jolla, Young said she knows it contrasts greatly with many other parts of the world. “Growing up in La Jolla, and the United States in general, it’s easy to imagine that life around the world is similar to how you grew up,” she said. “That could not be further from the truth. “I hope that through my project, I can help to bridge the gap between health care and the people who desperately need it.”

Magnificent Music

La Jolla Presbyterian concert series offers scholarship winners BY ASHLEY MACKIN-SOLOMON The 2017 La Jolla Presbyterian Church concert series — now 56 years strong — opens with a first-of-its-kind presentation of budding musical talent 4 p.m. Oct. 15 with the Young Artists Showcase in the church sanctuary at 7715 Draper Ave. For the first time, the Church welcomes Musical Merit Foundation of San Diego scholarship winners baritone Nicholas Newton, violinist (and Torrey Pines High School grad) Erica Hwang and pianist Jason Kim. Ron Bolles, La Jolla Presbyterian Church concert series manager, said the Young Artists Showcase is something “we are particularly proud of” and that the quality of talent is “phenomenal.” He explained, “We thought partnering with the Musical Merit Foundation would bring some new fresh faces to the concert series and give audiences a chance to see tomorrow’s stars today. The vocalist, Nicholas Newton, is so fun to listen to because he can do so much with his instrument. Then we have Jason Kim whose abilities are out of this world. And Erica (Hwang) travels all over the world performing; she’s incredible.” While the season opener is considered a standout, the concert series as a whole is “high quality entertainment, and in many cases, a transcendent experience,” he said. “Lovers of music will fall in love with this concert series and our magnificent sanctuary. We encourage people to bring the family, explore The Village and then check out the sunset on the beach. It’s a destination experience as much as anything else,” Bolles said. “And they are not paying

Musical Merit Foundation of San Diego scholarship winners: baritone Nicholas Newton, violinist Erica Hwang and pianist Jason Kim anything. A concert that charges $25 admission would be more than $100 for a family of five. We take a collection of donations, but there is free admission and a free reception with the musicians afterwards, which is a highlight. It’s neat to thank the musicians for what they’ve shared. It’s also outreach for the church.” The series continues 4 and 7 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 10 with the “Many Moods of Christmas” concert — considered the feel-good show of the year. Performers include the La Jolla Presbyterian Church chancel choir, children’s choir, La Jolla Brass and hand-bell choir. Collectively, the choirs tell the story of Christmas through song, including carols and works by Vivaldi. “The Many Moods of Christmas is a

standard at churches across America, and ours in particular has become iconic,” Bolles said. “We have to have two shows each year because our sanctuary always fills up.” The next concert, “From Sea to Shining Sea,” celebrates the history of America, 4 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 11, 2018. Songs include rousing renditions of patriotic music and selections from the Great American Songbook, presented by a to-be-announced ensemble. The one solo show of the year, the Chelsea Chen Organ Concert is 4 p.m. Sunday, March 11, 2018. A fan favorite at La Jolla Presbyterian, Chen is a La Jolla native and organist known for her original compositions and adapted music. She has performed in the United States, Europe, Australia and Asia.

“Ours is the first organ on which she learned to play,” Bolles said. “Chelsea grew up in the church, so we consider her a homegrown star. In an instrument that is not of this century, she is regarded as a rising star. She’ll play the Mario Brothers theme, which I’m told is one of her most requested songs, to the classics. She is so fun.” The series closes with a tour through Italy, 4 p.m. Thursday, June 10, 2018 with “An Italian Itinerary.” The Chancel Choir will travel to Northern Italy in June to perform in some of Europe’s cathedrals and churches. In preparation for their trip, will share the music they plan to play. The concert is considered a “musical send off.” ■ To learn more about the concerts: (858) 729-5511. ljpres.org/concert-series

Practicing the Rotary ideal of “Service Before Self” has earned Eric Kalisky of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties the La Jolla Sunrise Rotary Club’s Rotarian of the Year Award for 2017. “Eric was awarded in recognition of his distinguished service and devotion to Rotary and the deserving organizations it supports,” said Nicki Marcellino, Regional Vice President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties. “We are so proud to have him in our La Jolla office. He is a real asset to the community.” Kalisky is a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, and a retired naval commander. “I enjoyed a wonderful career serving our country, and now I am grateful to give back to my community through Rotary,” he said. “I also developed an expertise in the art of relocating from city to city, so I can help Eric Kalisky ease the transition for new residents of our wonderful region.” La Jolla Sunrise Rotary Club supports the San Pasqual Academy for foster children; Gift of Life, which provides critically needed heart surgery for children in impoverished nations; and the 1,000 Smiles project that provides free surgery and dental work to underprivileged children in Mexico.
