By AShLEy MACKin Citing issues with the ADA-access ramp and a surprise “water intrusion,” the construction timeline on La Jolla Cove’s lifeguard tower has been pushed back again, this time to mid-September. Originally scheduled to be completed in December 2014, unforeseen problems pushed the completion date to March 2015, then to late July/early August 2015, and then to its most recent projection. Myrna Dayton, deputy director of field engineering with the City of San Diego Public Works Department, said her team has been “struggling with the contractor (APR Construction, Inc.) for several months” and that “the quality of the work that was completed by the contractor was not to our standards and a lot had to be redone.” The new tower will be 80 square feet with a steel frame and wood siding on a concrete cantilevered base. The $1.85 million pricetag is being funded through the use of deferred capital bonds and development impact fees. SEE LifEguARd TowER, A19

A pedestrian-activated blinking indicator light was installed in mid-August across la Jolla Boulevard at Westbourne street.

Ashley MAckin

Westbourne Street gets blinking crosswalk By Ashley MAckin After an impassioned plea to La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation advisory board in April for a blinking lighted crosswalk across La Jolla Boulevard at Westbourne Street – the city installed one in mid-August. At the April meeting, residents came forward reporting they had almost been hit by motorists while attempting to cross the street, which had a continental crosswalk but no blinking indicator lights. They called it “a horror story.” A chief concern was that, without a pedestrian-activated blinking crosswalk or some sort of indicator, even if a car stops for a pedestrian, the second car or third driver in line gets impatient because they don’t know why they’re stopping and they use the left turn lane to pass the car in

front of them. Those concerned came before the traffic board and reported writing letters to City Council President Sherri Lightner. Their wish was granted. Lightner’s director of communications, Jennifer Kearns, said the Transportation Engineering department evaluated the crosswalk and determined it was eligible for the installation of “Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons” for additional safety. “We worked with transportation department staff to determine the cost of the crosswalk improvements. Due to a lack of available funding, our office funded the requested improvements through a Community Projects, Programs and Services (CPPS) Funding transfer,” she said.

At that time, they were told the installation could take six months with a fall completion date, “so we are extremely pleased that the installation has been completed this summer,” Kearns said. The installation is especially important for the high school and middle school students who often use the crosswalk as a route to the beach, as it is a direct connector to WindanSea. Melinda Merryweather, a vocal proponent for installing a blinking lighted crosswalk (especially for young beachgoers), previously said she has seen a person hit and often struggles to cross at that street on her bike. Noting there is a stoplight one block away, she theorized that drivers will “hit the gas” as soon as the light turns green or race through a yellow light, unaware that there is a crosswalk so close by. u

Planning Commission OKs PDO deviations n Applicants seek retail waiver for townhome, commercial space projects By Pat Sherman On Aug. 13 the San Diego Planning Commission lent its unanimous approval to two Village projects whose applicants are seeking deviations from a ground-floor retail requirement of La Jolla’s Planned District Ordinance (PDO), or blueprint for design. As it becomes increasingly difficult to rent retail space in the Village, the issue of developers requesting deviations from the PDO — in these cases, to accommodate residential and office space — is one of growing concern, with some believing La Jolla’s PDO is long overdue for an update (read more at bit.ly/LJPDOproposal).

Silver Street Village Homes

mainly of residential, cultural and recreational uses — is no longer viable for retail (and may have been gerrymandered to accommodate an existing retail use when the PDO was written in 1984). Planning commissioners — impressed with the project’s Old World European design — voted 6-0 to approve a motion by commissioner Anthony Wagner to approve the project as a consent agenda item, without further discussion. The development will replace the old Silver Street letter carrier annex (which is relocating to UTC) and a veterinary hospital that has since moved down the street. “It’s a terrific project and it’s easy to put it on consent,” Commissioner Susan Peerson said. “It will be a positive contribution to the

Village of La Jolla.” Will Cooper, who lives adjacent to the site, said he likes the design, but was “a little concerned that they’re going to be taking out several (mature) pine trees,” located on an adjacent city easement. Cooper also recommended removing several power poles near the project and undergrounding those utility lines as part of the development, which Planning Commission Chair Tim Golba said the city approved. The issue of the trees can be broached when the project comes before the City Council for final approval, it was noted. More on the project at bit.ly/silverstreet

The two-story Silver Street Village Homes project, at the corner of Silver Street and Draper Avenue, would include 18, two- to four-bedroom townhomes. La Jollan William Berwin and his business partners are seeking a deviation from the PDO’s requirement that properties in La Jolla’s commercial district include 50 percent retail space on the ground floor. During discussions of the project by the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) and its subcommittees, it was determined that this area of PDO Zone 3 — today comprised

the owners of the two-story, 36,485-squarefoot building at the corner of Prospect Street and Herschel Avenue to increase the amount of office space allowed on the ground floor. They are seeking to bump the 25 percent allowed by the La Jolla PDO to 50 percent. Earlier this year, La Jolla’s Planned District Ordinance committee, which reviews projects for conformance to the PDO, was only willing to grant a deviation for up to 35 percent ground-floor office space. Project representative Marcela Escobar-Eck said the building’s vast depth has made it difficult to rent for retail uses, noting the only offer the owners received in the past two years was from a T-shirt shop. Peter Wagener, a general partner in the building, which once housed Hotel Parisi, said the inability to rent the space has nothing to do with its cost. “It has nothing to do with what we charge or don’t charge,” he said, adding he believes Prospect Street is no longer a place where people come to shop. “That area of Prospect Street doesn’t lend itself to shopping. If they shop, they go to Girard Avenue.” The applicant proposes to maintain 75 percent of retail frontage by using the first 10 feet of each office space along the building’s iconic pedestrian plaza for retail or other pedestrian-friendly uses. EscobarEck said the space could be used to provide visitor information on local beaches and hikes, or to display art. She noted one potential tenant was considering

www.lajollalight.com adding model train exhibits to their frontage. “The intent is to have it be a space that interacts with the public and draws people in,” she said. However, Golba said he does not think 10 feet is sufficient for such uses. “I get that it’s an old PDO (document),” he said, noting “another half dozen projects are coming down the pipeline with PDO deviation (requests),” though stressing the building and its courtyard fountain are one of the most picturesque corners in the Village. “I want to see it energized, but I’m concerned about what I’m being asked to energize it with.” Golba said there was nothing in the applicant’s request assuring that an office tenant would use their front 10 feet for a use that complements the pedestrian plaza. “There’s nothing on paper that assures us that it’s going to be some sort of visitor information center or anything like that,” he said. “If you’re telling me you’re going to display art in your lobby and a tourist from Nebraska can walk in and look at the art without disturbing (the office tenant), that makes me comfortable.” Although Golba said he trusts Wagener’s intentions, the “physical limitations of 10 feet would preclude you from doing any of that,” he said. “I seriously struggle with the 10 feet. Ten feet gives me heartburn. Even if you did easels and artwork, you’re asking somebody to go sideways and shimmy along the windows to see the artwork. … As an architect we talk about drive-isles (of) 18 feet being insufficient; 10 feet for (visitorfriendly) commercial is comical. I cannot support 10 feet, I just won’t.”

LA JOLLA LIGHT - AuGuST 27, 2015 - Page a5

The owners of this building at Prospect Street and Herschel Avenue (once occupied by Hotel Parisi) say they have found it difficult to lease retail space. They are requesting a deviation from La Jolla’s Planned District Ordinance to increase the amount of ground-floor office space from 25 to 50 percent. File Golba noted that, after three failed motions, the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) could not come to a

consensus to float a recommendation for the project, though one of the motions the LJCPA proposed was to increase the front

office space to a depth of 20 feet. Although Escobar-Eck initially said her clients were willing to concede only an additional two feet of depth, planning commissioner Anthony Wagner suggested 18 feet would be more appropriate. Escobar-Eck said her clients were amenable to a permit condition assuring commissioners’ fear of filing cabinets and secretary’s desks in the front windows aren’t realized a year after the deviation is approved. In the end, a motion to approve a planned development permit and the deviation for 50 percent office space passed by a vote of 5-0-1 (Commissioner Peerson, whose husband works with Escobar-Eck at Atlantis Group, recused herself from the vote). A condition was added that “the first 15 feet off the plaza would remain open to the general public and available for retail or visitor-commercial serving uses, with no physical barriers that would prohibit efficient flow through the space and no office-specific uses.” “You could partner with the (La Jolla) Historical Society and just soar … if you put those old-time pictures of the Green Dragon Colony in there,” Golba suggested. … “I just don’t want to go by and find that that’s a giant waiting room for a real estate office.” Escobar-Eck said the requested deviation is “permissive, but it doesn’t mean it’s mandatory. Over time, if (co-owner Peter Wagener) has offers from better tenants he’ll look to convert the space back to retail, which is allowed,” she said. “This just gives him the flexibility.” For more information on the project, visit bit.ly/ProspectDeviation u

To do that, under his guidance, the school will focus on individualized learning and giving students the opportunity to better understand the world around them, as it is and as it will be. “We are trying to create a developmental model where students become the best versions of themselves,” Krahn said. “They will know how to ask questions, want to make the world a better place and have the tools to do it.” The new head of school took the helm July 1, and welcomed students on their first day back, Aug. 24. Of his selection as LJCDS 12th head of school, “Dr. Krahn overwhelmingly emerged as the committee’s first choice,” said board president Manish Parikh said in a press release. “What one doesn’t see in his resume are his warmth and approachability: evident during even a brief conversation.” That resume includes years of experience in developing leadership skills, chiefly in his 30 years in the United States military.

To better understand what the future will look like, he compiled a board of advisors consisting of technical directors from national agencies, engineers, inventors, conflict resolution strategists, professors, researchers and more. “They tell me where the world is going,” he said. “How do I anticipate and respond to a rapidly changing world when I’m here every day? I need a team to help us stay connected with the world we are trying to prepare the kids for.” Additionally, he said engaging with different cultures will be key. “That’s an essential part of being an educated person. If you are the one in the room who can see the world through different lenses, you will

be the leader in that room,” he said. “Leaders inspire people to do something extraordinary. I’ve come to understand that leadership is ultimately about creating transformational change without creating too much anxiety.” In addition to seeing the world through the Army, Krahn and his wife Paula (nee Davis) got to see the country during their 17 moves across the United States. “That’s just military life,” he said. But with family in San Diego and the Bay Area, the Krahns are happy to be back. Krahn and Paula grew up just a few houses apart near San Diego State University, but didn’t connect until they attended Crawford High School. “I had a crush on her in the

ninth grade, but she told me she didn’t know I existed until 10th grade,” he said with a smile and a blush. “She was the only girl I ever dated. When I went off to West Point, we knew we would get connected again,” he said. The two wed after his 1977 graduation. They have two daughters, Carolyn and Kelly, who both work in the computer technologies field, and live in San Francisco and Silicon Valley. Besides running LJCDS, Krahn said his “big job” is convincing Kelly, her husband and two daughters to move to San Diego. “I want my granddaughters, Reese and Avery, to go to the best school in the world and I’m convinced it is La Jolla Country Day,” he said. “Mark my words, I’ll get them here somehow!” u

LA JOLLA NEWS NUGGETS SCADA or nada? Pole placement is puzzling

uring the La Jolla Community Planning Association’s Aug. 6 meeting, Vic Salazar, a sewer and water project representative for the City of San Diego, told La Jolla Light the city is still studying to determine if a planned, 30-foottall SCADA pole related to Sewer and Water Group Project 820 is necessary at Exchange Place and Bluebird Lane. Exchange Place residents are already angered by SDG&E’s adjacent, 49-foot-tall SCADA wireless communications pole, which SDG&E installed without notice in May, in front of a home on the opposite side of Bluebird Lane. A representative with the city’s Development Services Department confirmed SDG&E may not have had authority to install the pole at a height breaching La Jolla’s 30-foot coastal height limit and that the “SCADA pole installation remains under investigation.” Should the city decide to install its 30-foot SCADA pole there, to transmit information to a water facility south of San Diego State University, city representatives will return to the LJCPA to present the project as an information item, Salazar said.

Assemblymember Atkins opposes cell tower bill

Jolla representative Toni Atkins told the Light her opposition to AB 57 was the reason she didn’t vote on the bill when it reached the Assembly floor in May. The bill, related to the FCC’s Spectrum Act order being implemented by the City of San Diego (and criticized by La Jollans), would give wireless communications companies carte blanche authority to install new cell phone antennas and related equipment, without public notice or chance for appeal. The bill also removes much of a city or local government’s regulatory authority over such installations. AB 57 been amended three times in the Senate (most recently, on Aug. 18, with exemptions for installations on “fire department facilities,” which opponents tell

the Light they believe were added to move the state firefighters union from opposition to support). Should the Senate approve the bill, it would return to the Assembly for a vote on concurrence. “I won’t vote for it if it returns to the Assembly,” said Atkins, via e-mail, though stopping short of saying she would use her authority as speaker to squash the legislation. “During my time on the San Diego City Council, I took part in extensive discussions on this issue. I know how hard local communities have worked to enact land-use policies such as height limitations that make sense for them, and, in this case, I won’t support a bill that undermines their authority.” State Senator and La Jolla resident Marty

Block told La Jolla Town Council Aug. 13 he also opposes AB 57 and would lobby his Senate colleagues to oppose it — despite the heavy influence of the telecommunications industry to woo state legislators. To read more from Block on this subject, visit bit.ly/SpectrumBlock Earlier this month, San Diego City Council President Sherri Lightner, also of La Jolla, issued her own statement opposing the state and federal wireless industry coup, citing “longstanding concerns about wireless cell tower installations in residential neighborhoods dating back to my time as a volunteer and chair of the La Jolla Shores Association.” Lightner’s letter said her efforts to “make adjustments to the La Jolla Community

Scientists uncover mechanism of antibioticresistant bacteria Every year, more strains of bacteria develop resistance to the antibiotics we use to treat deadly infections. At The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) in La Jolla scientists

have been working to develop new forms of these drugs, including an antibiotic called arylomycin — but tests have shown that it is possible for bacteria to become resistant to arylomycin, too. Now, TSRI have discovered that the important human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus, develops resistance to this drug by “switching on” a previously uncharacterized set of genes. “This explains why antibiotic resistance rates in some bacteria are higher than in others,” said TSRI professor Floyd Romesberg, senior author of the new study. “Resistance depends on this little set of genes that no one knew could contribute to tolerating the arylomycins.” — These findings were published by the journal mBio.

During the aug. 18 DPr meeting, architect Jim alcorn (with Kaysie rozsonits) shows how a mixed-use project proposed for the corner of eads avenue and Pearl Street would fit in with homes to the east along eads avenue. the two-story mix of retail and residential space, designed by alcorn & Benton architects, would replace the 76 gas station. Photos by Pat sherman

eads avenue resident Connie Branscomb (with architect Jim alcorn) displays a photo of a mixed-use project being developed at Bird rock avenue and La Jolla Boulevard. Branscomb said the project illustrates her concern with alcorn’s similar mixed-use project, proposed for eads avenue and Pearl Street.

Permit group revisits plans to replace Pearl St. gas station with mixed-use project By Pat Sherman La Jolla Rec Center was ground zero for presentations on key Village development projects during August meetings of the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) and its Development Permit Review subcommittee (DPR).

Community Planning uPdateS restaurant at 2259 Avenida de la Playa (at La Jolla Shores Drive). After much discussion, LJCPA trustees decided not grant La Jolla Shores Permit Review Committee’s request to rule on whether the project’s exterior colors were appropriate. La Jolla Shores business owner Myrna Naegle and artist Shirley Church spoke in opposition to the color scheme. “The La Jolla Shores PDO (Planned District Ordinance, or blueprint for design) was enacted in 1974 to stop new structures that are not compatible with the area and would

disrupt the architectural unity,” Naegle said, also noting her concern with exposed equipment on the roof of the restaurant. (Galaxy Taco owner George Hauer later said the rooftop appurtenances would be shielded). While several LJCPA trustees agreed the Shores PDO calls for muted exterior colors, resident Bob Whitney, architect Michael Morton and several LJCPA trustees generally concured that a building’s color scheme is a code compliance issue, and not within the LJCPA’s purview — especially given the city has already approved the project. Hauer said he spent more than $2 million

to restore the formerly vacant building space, once home to La Jolla Shores Market. “I thought you invited me in to give me a commendation,” he joked, noting there are “many facades” with bright orange and yellow colors that “don’t seem to bother people” along the Avenida de la Playa commercial corridor. As a concession, Hauer met with LJCPA trustee Janie Emerson (as a private citizen), offering to replace some of what Emerson previously deemed “screaming yellow” with a shade of green that Hauer said matches local tree foliage. Emerson agreed that bringing the issue to the attention of the LJCPA after it was

approved by the city was “unfair,” adding she feels Hauer’s offer is a “reasonable compromise.” n Shores pyrotechnics mystery: Trustee Emerson also noted that two weekends in a row Shores’ residents reported aerial fireworks were dispersed near Scripps Pier, causing windows to rattle, some dogs to run off and, reportedly, an elderly woman to be taken the emergency room. Questioned about the fireworks, UC San Diego representative Anu Delouri told the Light she looked into the complaint and found the fireworks were not related to any events at the nearby Scripps Forum, and are not something Scripps allows. Scripps Institution of Oceanography’s (SIO) last fireworks display at the pier was part its 2003 centennial celebration, she said. n No Shores’ speed decrease: The LJCPA also voted unanimously to ratify an earlier motion by the Traffic & Transportation (T&T) advisory board not to approve a speed limit decrease from 30 to 25 miles per hour on La Jolla Shores Drive, between El Paseo Grande and North Torrey Pines Road. The item was pulled from last month’s consent agenda by T&T member Donna Aprea, who noted that UCSD requested the reduced speed due to dangerous conditions turning onto La Jolla Shores Drive from the SIO campus. However, a city study showed 85 percent of cars are traveling up to the currently posted 30 mile-per-hour mandate — a criterion for maintaining the current limit.

During the aug. 6 lJCPa meeting restaurateur george Hauer shares his plan to tone down the ‘screaming yellow’ exterior color of his new galaxy taco restaurant in the Shores by replacing some yellow with a green shade he says matches surrounding foliage. avenida de la Playa business owner myrna naegle (right), who expressed concern with the color choice, later thanked Hauer for the compromise. Trustee Emerson said she felt the danger stemmed from poor visibility rather than speed, suggesting an existing portion of red curb be extended to increase visibility by eliminating several parking spaces on La Jolla Shores Drive. Others suggested better signage could alert pedestrians to the nearby footbridge over La Jolla Shores Drive, further increasing safety. n Whitney mixed-use project: The LJCPA’s appeal of Bob and Kim Whitney’s long-stalled, three-story mixed-use project at 2202 and 2206 Avenida de la Playa is set for a tentative City Council hearing, 2 p.m. Monday, Oct. 5, LJCPA president Cindy Greatrex noted. The San Diego Planning Commission approved the project in April.

Development Permit Review Committee n Gas station redux update: During the Aug. 18 meeting of the DPR committee, it was apparent Eads Avenue residents are gradually cottoning to a mix of residential and retail space proposed to replace the 76 gas station at the corner of Pearl Street and Eads Avenue. Many once strongly opposed to the project now say it is a vast improvement from when it was first presented a year-anda-half ago, and again at subsequent DPR and LJCPA meetings (conspicuously absent this

time were project opponents’ attorneys). Concessions made since the project was first presented by a different architect include: increasing a setback between the project and the closest neighbor on Eads Avenue from 8 to 15 feet; decreasing the height from three to two stories; and reducing commercial space by 22 percent, project architect Jim Alcorn noted, adding a traffic study shows the project would generate 288 less daily vehicle trips than the current gas station. However, a few residents said they are still concerned with the project’s bulk and scale. “The project has improved a lot since it was first presented,” Eads Avenue resident Connie Branscomb said. “My only point with this is it’s still massive.” Karen Moranville, the neighbor directly east of the project, said though plans have improved, she’s nevertheless concerned with the current conversion trend of retail to residential space in the Village. “Soon, we will not have a viable commercial zone — just one big residential area,” she said. La Jollan Mark Fackler said he believes the project encroaches into a residential area. “You are changing the feel of the street … taking north Eads onto south Eads,” he said. Unlike some Village projects now in the pipeline, Alcorn said, the project does not require any variances or deviations from the Planned District Ordinance, particularly the PDO’s requirement for ground-floor retail.

Architect Ray Porfilio presents plans for La Jolla Music Society’s performing arts center on Fay Avenue (as shown in the model). The DPR committee unanimously approved the plans during its Aug. 18 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center. From Community Planning, a11 attendance, said the project would not be the first to alter the face of Pearl Street. “There are actually a fair amount of mixeduse projects here already,” she said, noting that the project is less dense than some others on Pearl Street, including the threestory, mixed-use project at 702 Pearl St. (where Sammy’s pizza is located). “All commercial zones throughout the city, except one, allow residential to be developed with the commercial at 29 dwelling units per acre, by right,” Henegar said. “As we run out of land and values increase, over time property owners may elect to exercise (that right) and include residential” if they meet all of the criteria.

Although DPR member Bob Collins was prepared to make a motion that findings could be made to approve the project, because it was improperly listed on the agenda as a preliminary review it would have required unanimous approval (there were two opposing votes). As such, the applicant will return to the DPR next month. Before then, community member Ed Comartin and DPR member Angeles Leira suggested Alcorn find further means of breaking up the mass of the building, with the use of increased articulation, colors or building materials. n The Conrad wins third round: La Jolla Music Society (LJMS) and its architectural team returned to the Aug. 18

DPR meeting with additional information on its proposed Fay Avenue performing arts center, The Conrad, garnering its third unanimous vote of approval by a La Jolla advisory group (the project received similar nods this summer from the Planned District Ordinance committee and La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation board). Although LJMS president and artistic director Christopher Beach told DPR member Mike Costello LJMS hasn’t figured out how much it will charge community groups to use the space two years from now, he said it would be comparable to what the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego charges for use of Sherwood Auditorium (which will be demolished to accommodate MCASD’s gallery expansion). Beach said nonprofit

groups would receive a discounted rate to use The Conrad. DPR member Collins and chair Paul Benton had concerns with the amount of trellis around the perimeter of The Conrad’s central, open courtyard, though Beach said city staff interprets a trellis as being open to the sky. “It’s a thrilling project (and) innovative design … but I will tell you that you’re really stretching it when you talk about ground coverage to the sky,” Benton said. Conversely, DPR member Leira noted the project includes a second-story foyer that is open to the outdoors through terra cotta grillage. Such open spaces are requested in the PDO, although they are rarely incorporated, she said. u

As pictured on Aug. 24, the Cove Lifeguard Tower remains under construction and the anticipated date of completion has been moved to mid-September. Ashley MAckin From LiFeguard Tower, a1 In addition, new benches will be added at the mid-level area with storage cubbies for swimmers, and an access ramp to the midlevel landing overlooking the Cove will be installed. The latter posed one of the problems. When portions of the ADA-access ramp were built, it was determined they were too steep to meet ADA standards. “ADA is a big issue for us,” Dayton said. “The ramp was only a little bit off tolerance but it was unacceptable to us. It contributed to the delay of us accepting the work.” As such, the ramp portion of the project is considered behind schedule. A second surprise that spurred a voluntary rebuild was a “water intrusion” on the landing fronting the door where the lifeguards enter and exit the dormitory area. After the flash storm hit San Diego in mid-July, a small amount of water got into the lower level of the tower, separate from the observation tower, where lifeguards have showers and rest-room facilities. “It was a blessing in disguise to be honest ... We know it was a weird storm and we got a lot of rain at one time, but the fact that it happened and there was some minor flooding in the lower part of the station … we decided to redo the landing in front of the door.” Senior civil engineer Elif Cetin added, “Although the water was draining, we didn’t feel comfortable with the amount of water that came in, and we had the opportunity to enhance the area and we chose to take that road. We don’t want to see any water in there.” Although it is not known how much the delays and replacements will add to the project, Senior Public Information Officer Scott Robinson explained any voluntary improvements are covered by the city, while any work that is not up to par is covered by the contractor. The La Mesa-based APR Construction’s county-wide projects include work on schools such as Southwest Middle School and City College, and retail locations.

That’s Rough Construction on the Cove lifeguard tower prompted the annual Rough Water Swim to

be cancelled last year, but Dayton assured construction impacts would be minimal enough that the Swim set for Sept. 13 could take place this year. With the main facility nearly done, “We are taking away most of the trailers and removing the fence completely just before the event,” she said, adding they would lay artificial turf in the adjacent Scripps Park and after the event, fresh grass will be planted, and fenced off so it can be established.

Children’s Pool Tower La Jolla’s other lifeguard station under construction, at Children’s Pool, is reportedly on track to be complete in time for the next harbor seal pupping season, Dec. 15. During the pupping season, Dec. 15-May 15 annually, no work can take place at Children’s Pool that might disrupt the pregnant and nursing harbor seals that haul out there. In June, following the end of the most recent pupping season, work resumed on the Children’s Pool tower at its lowest topographical level, Cetin explained. She said much of the work is taking place below street level and not visible to passers-by. “We have retaining walls that needed tieback work (to support and stabilize the wall),” she said. “The lifeguard locker area under construction is below the street level; there is a walkway that goes around to the rest rooms on the mid level, also below street level, so it’s hard to see any of that.” Robinson added that deliberate efforts were made to not bother beach-goers and Children’s Pool visitors with construction noise and traffic impacts. “A lot of work has been ongoing (since June), but that’s one of the main things the contractor and the city have worked for, to mitigate the impact of construction activities,” he said. However, similar to the Cove, the ADA-access ramp has had to be re-measured for compliance to ADA standards. The intention this year — as was the plan last year prohibited by a nesting seagull chick found at the site — is to have the exterior completed by the start of the coming pupping season, with interior work continuing through the winter. u

Gray is the New Black

Stay in style with fashionable formal wear at A Better Deal Tuxedo By Marti Gacioch his year’s big fashion changes in the tuxedo and suit industry meant significant investments for formal wear shop owners Jerry and Janet Klein at A Better Deal Tuxedo. “Many of the changes had to do with the growing popularity of the slim-fit and the modern-fit styles,” Jerry Klein said. “Customers want these new styles for important occasions like weddings, award ceremonies, fundraisers and business occasions.” To keep current for the San Diego market, the Kleins invested in new inventory for their 16-year-old store in Bird Rock. As Klein explained, jacket lapel widths are now much slimmer and there is less padding in the sleeves to exaggerate the shoulders. “The changes had a lot to do with the high school proms and graduations, as well as college fundraisers and the business community,” Klein said. “Young customers influence what’s in demand a great deal.” He said color favorites also change with the seasons and this year’s summer colors included light gray, light tan, light blue, medium blue and midnight blue tuxedos

He pointed out that for accessories, men have returned to wearing bow ties with tuxedos and hand-knotted ties for dress wear, but the ties are narrower now and come in far more color choices. Further, bow ties are available in dotted and striped patterns in every color and shade imaginable. “Our business secret is having a huge inventory right here and available, so if a man comes in with his bride and they want something that captures their attention, we already have it in stock, unlike chain stores with little inventory,” Klein said. “I also reassure clients that we can make any fitting adjustments needed right here in the shop.” If a wedding is on a Saturday, he said, A Better Deal Tuxedo has the garments ready by Thursday or Friday. u

Since the bride and her stylist decide what colors will be used for a wedding and 70 percent of the tux business is providing formal wear for weddings, Klein said their shop is always prepared with an extensive inventory.

Heroin usage is up in San Diego County Nationwide heroin overdoses and deaths

are soaring, and San Diego County is no exception to this trend, according to statistics released Aug. 20 by the SANDAG Criminal Justice Research Division. Traditionally, heroin/opiate use has been lower among the arrestee population in San Diego, compared to other large U.S. cities. In 2002, 25 percent of adult male arrestees in Chicago tested positive for opiates, compared to 13 percent in New York and 5 percent in San Diego. However, in 2012 (the most recent year for comparison data across cities) these rates declined to 15 percent in Chicago and 10 percent in New York, but doubled to 10 percent in San Diego. In 2014, 13 percent of adult male arrestees and 15 percent of adult female arrestees in San Diego County tested positive for heroin/ opiates — the highest rates since the Substance Abuse Monitoring (SAM) Program began tracking data in this format in 2000.

Swim for Warriors a success for two locals Two La Jolla swimmers who use La Jolla Cove daily as their training ground attempted to swim the Catalina Channel Aug. 21 to raise funds for Warrior FoundationFreedom Station — one of them was successful. Dana Selles and La Jolla High School alum Penny Nagel departed Catalina last Friday and Nagel landed on the mainland 15 hours later. Selles, who suffered an injury during a military tour in Afghanistan, had to stop a few miles short. The swim team, including

two support kayakers, touched sand in Rancho Palos Verdes outside of San Pedro. Warrior Foundation provides services to veterans in Southern California, and supplements government programs.

Local Toastmaster wins third at World semifinals Toastmasters of La Jolla member Prabhu Kandasamy recently took third place in his group at the Prabhu semifinal round Kandasamy of Toastmasters International Semifinals and World Championship of Public Speaking contest in Las Vegas. Kandasamy represented District 5 (which covers San Diego and spans all the way to Arizona) at the championship, which grouped districts together — with one winner proceeding to

the World Championship final round. The competition showcases the most skilled public speakers in the world, representing local Toastmasters clubs. Toastmasters International is an organization aimed at improving public speaking skills. Kandasamy wrote a speech for the competition based on his life story and growing up with polio in India, and relied on his local club to help refine his skills. He competed with his perfected speech at the division and district levels, before qualifying for the Toastmasters International Semifinals and World Championship of Public Speaking.

From TraFFic FaTaliTy, a1 At about noon, Ratcliff pulled into an open parking spot in front of a bank on the east side of Girard Avenue, exited her car and walked behind it to the trunk. Meanwhile, O’Neil was backing her car out a diagonal parking space across the street in an apparent attempt to reverse its direction and drive home. O’Neil’s car struck Ratcliff, pinning her against the car next to hers and crushing her. O’Neil told police she had not been using her rear-view mirror. Ratcliff was a 45-year-old communications professional who had served in the White House as Deputy Communications Director for Vice President Al Gore and also served as spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee. She worked as the Director of Communications at The Broad Education Foundation in Los Angeles, and co-founded the nationally recognized LA Diaper Drive while living in Los Angeles. In San Diego, Ratcliff was the vice president for marketing and events of the San Diego Chamber of Commerce, and was on the Board of the High Tech High Foundation. City Attorney Jan Goldsmith said his office is not seeking jail time for O’Neil, but will ask that she surrender her driver license, agree to never drive again, and agree to make restitution to her victims. “Three children lost their mother due to the defendant’s actions. While her age may make her unsuitable for jail time, it does not relieve her of responsibility for her decisions,” Goldsmith said. “Every year our office prosecutes thousands of cases

Police respond to the fatal accident in the 7700 block of Girard Avenue that took the life of Melissa Ratcliff on Oct. 8 2014. Pat Sherman involving motorists who drove while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, including prescription drugs. In all of these cases, the public has a strong interest in the mental and physical abilities of drivers. “Every older driver must make informed decisions about the increased risks of driving as their abilities decline. Their friends and families have a moral responsibility to ask questions and to speak up when they recognize safety concerns.” A number of resources are available to help people make responsible decisions about whether age is affecting their abilities — or the abilities of another — to safely operate a vehicle. The National Highway Traffic Safety Association has published a booklet “How to

Understand & Influence Older Drivers” that gives information on helping older drivers make informed decisions about their driving behavior, and includes suggestions on how to begin conversations with an older driver about safety concerns. It can be viewed at http://icsw.nhtsa.gov/ people/injury/olddrive/ UnderstandOlderDrivers/ The National Institute on Aging has an online “Age Page” for older drivers that gives safe driving tips for people suffering from medical conditions, including slowed reaction times and reflexes. Here is a link to the NIA’s “Age Page” bit.ly/AgePage According to the National Institutes for Health, as people get older, their driving patterns change. Retirement, different

schedules, and new activities affect when and where they drive. Age-related declines in vision, hearing, and other abilities, as well as certain health conditions and medications, also can affect driving skills. Driving, meanwhile, is a complicated task for drivers of all ages. It requires people to see and hear clearly; pay close attention to other cars, traffic signs and signals, and pedestrians; and react quickly to events. Drivers must be able to accurately judge distances and speeds and monitor movement on both sides as well in front of them. It’s common for people to have declines in visual, thinking or physical abilities as they get older. Common mistakes of older drivers include: n failing to yield the right of way; n failing to stay in lane; n misjudging the time or distance needed to turn in front of traffic; n failing to stop completely at a stop sign; n speeding or driving too slowly. The NIH reports that the rate of crashes among adults 65 and over has decreased in recent years. Research suggests that this decline is due to a number of factors, including older adults’ better health, safer cars and safer roads. In addition, older drivers’ ability to “police” themselves — like not driving at night — and stricter state laws for renewal of driver’s licenses may help. Most traffic deaths of older drivers occur during the daytime, on weekdays and involve other vehicles. Older adults are more susceptible to death or serious injury in a crash if they are physically frail, but the good news is that older people are more likely to survive crashes than in the past. u

CRIME AND PUBLIC-SAFETY NEWS Nurse gets probation for drug swapping

registered nurse who worked in a La Jolla clinic was sentenced in San Diego federal court Aug. 14 to three years probation for siphoning off a painkiller from vials with syringes and refilling the bottles with saline solution. Sarah Elizabeth Martin, 25, was also ordered to pay a $1,000 fine, complete 100 hours of community service, pay restitution and complete a six-month drug rehabilitation program, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. Martin, who worked at La Jolla Women’s Surgery Center, removed meperidine hydrochloride, a generic form of Demerol, and then replaced the drug with saline solution, gluing the caps back on and storing the vials with other drugs to be administered to patients, according to her plea agreement. The saline solution was given to an estimated 50 to 250 patients, although the investigation showed no patients were harmed, prosecutors said. Martin admitted she’d become addicted to the pain medication following treatment for a medical condition, authorities said.

Del Mar man hospitalized with West Nile Virus A 73-year-old Del Mar man was confirmed Aug. 24 as the year’s first human case of West Nile Virus (WNV) in San Diego. The man was admitted to a hospital Aug. 2 with symptoms of encephalitis, an inflammation of the brain that can be caused by viral or bacterial infection, and remains hospitalized, according to the county Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA). The agency said testing by a state lab confirmed late last week that he has WNV Last year, 11 local WNV cases were diagnosed, and two of the patients died. Health officials said that around 80 percent of the people with WNV, which is spread by mosquitoes, don’t get symptoms, while the remainder will have headaches, fever, nausea, fatigue, a skin rash or swollen glands. Around 1 in 150 cases are life-threatening, and the risk goes up for patients over age 50, according to the HHSA. “The late summer is when we expect West Nile virus to peak, and there were cases diagnosed through October last year, so people need to protect themselves from this potentially deadly disease,” said Dr. Wilma Wooten, the county public health officer. The best protection is to empty out areas of standing water where mosquitoes breed,

County officials also urged residents to contact their vector control program when they find dead birds or green swimming pools, by calling (858) 694- 2888 or e-mailing vector@sdcounty.ca.gov So far this year, the county has collected 95 dead birds and 18 batches of mosquitoes that tested positive for West Nile.

The Sheriff’s Department reports that

fraudsters continue to target San Diegans, especially seniors, with the jury duty and warrant scams. Depuites advise residents to be aware of someone pretending to be a Sheriff’s Department employee. To sound believable, the caller will use a real employee’s name or Sheriff’s Department telephone number that can be found online. Callers also use Caller ID “spoofing,” which makes it appear as though the call is coming from a Sheriff’s Station or court offices. The caller will try to intimidate and as a scare tactic say: “You failed to show up for jury duty. Pay up or you will be arrested!” or “You have a warrant out for your arrest. Pay up or you will end up in jail!” These scams play on fears so in a panic, people end up giving personal information or money to diffuse the situation. If you receive a phone call and someone is asking for money, STOP! It is a scam! FACT: No employee of the Sheriff’s Department will ever contact members of the public by telephone to demand money or any other form of payment. If you get this type of call, hang up IMMEDIATELY. FACT: Outstanding warrants cannot be resolved over the phone. Warrants can only be cleared through the court.

he Scripps Institution of Oceanography and UC San Diego announced a $5 million donation from Richard and Carol Dean Hertzberg to establish the Center for Climate Change Impacts and Adaptation. The center will provide science-based strategies for adapting to climate change, according to UCSD. “In making this gift, Carol and I were inspired by the leadership at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, the excellence of UC San Diego and the enthusiastic approach to dealing with the very real issues that our models point toward and that our eyes and senses tell us are occurring,” said Richard Hertzberg, an energy industry executive who has served on the Scripps Advisory Council and Scripps Director’s Council since 2003. The center will focus on how society can address climate change consequences like sea-level rise and more extreme weather that bring the potential to disrupt commerce, agriculture and the habitability of certain regions, according to UCSD. “This center will leverage the great strengths of UC San Diego in engineering, economics and public policy — critical fields to address the issue of climate adaptation,” said UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla. “This gift is a testament to the foresight of the Hertzbergs in understanding the new questions Carol and Richard Hertzberg Courtesy that need to be asked regarding climate change, and also to their compassion and concern for future generations that will experience the effects of the decisions we make now.” Hertzberg is chairman, CEO and president of ENPEX Corp., a privately held energy company involved in the creation, development, financing, construction, operation and ownership of cogeneration projects, oil and gas production and exploration, and alternative energy projects.

Let’s work to defeat cell-tower Spectrum Act thanks to La Jolla Light writer Pat sherman for timely, clear reporting on complicated behind-the-scenes land-use issues and evolving state legislation implementing the federal spectrum act that may negatively affect La Jolla’s fragile balance between beauty and business. under cover of the too-broad federal spectrum act, the wireless industry is in the legislative process of getting a free pass — aB 57 (Quirk) — to add to existing cell towers or put up unsightly new poles exceeding our 30-foot Coastal Height Limit in any residential or commercial neighborhood without public notice, permission or right of appeal. aB 57 is winding its way to passage through our heavily lobbied state legislature right now. La Jollans who care about visual blight from wireless clutter should contact assembly speaker toni atkins, a san Diegan, who has the authority to kill this bill when it appears before her in concurrence in these last few weeks of the 2015 legislative session. and just in case, write gov.

zoning and environmental rules. Frances O’Neill Zimmerman

Remember school-bus rules for kids’ safety school has already or soon will be starting for many. Our first class should be school safety. Did you know that it is illegal to pass a school bus that is stopped to load or unload children? Did you know school buses use yellow flashing lights to alert motorists that they are preparing to stop to load or unload children? Red flashing lights and an extended stop sign arm signals to motorists that the bus is stopped and children are getting on or off the bus. the area 10 feet around a school bus is where children are in the most danger of being hit. stop your car far enough from the bus to allow children the necessary space to safely enter and exit the bus. Be alert as children are unpredictable. Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings and this makes them more likely to take risks, ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street. Drivers should not block the crosswalk when stopped at a red light or waiting to make a turn. Do not stop with a portion of your vehicle over

the crosswalk. In a school zone, when a warning flasher or flashers are blinking, you must stop to yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within a marked crosswalk or at an intersection with no marked crosswalk. take extra care to look out for children not only in school zones, but also in residential areas, playgrounds and parks. Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna

Time to ban leaf blowers I wish the City of san Diego would outlaw the blowers that people use for landscaping tasks. I do not believe they meet city code for noise. the City of Del Mar has already outlawed them. these machines invade our neighborhoods and create more dust and dirt.

Street signs never moved The story in the Aug. 20 La Jolla Light issue, “City looks into confusing WindanSea condo signage,” is nothing but gossip. The signage at 6767 Neptune Place is exactly as on the city approved construction drawings — as was required. And there never was any Do Not Enter sign at the intersection that was removed during construction. If you check this photo from two years ago while the old apartments were still occupied — well before demo and construction – the red sign was, and is, way up the hill. Resident Lee Miller’s whining got an additional Do Not Enter sign at the intersection — 10 feet out in the pavement. The city fixed the problem. Quit bashing a fabulous project that gave the public $100,000 in improvements, uses solar energy, employed hundreds of tradesmen and increased the property tax yield on that land more than 10 times. Paul Ross

Replant bushes at WindanSea I’m writing regarding the response by the city’s park arborist (who is this person?) and Tim Graham of the Storm Water Department to the plant removal at WindanSea. I have been living on Neptune Place since August 1965. The bushes that were removed not only supplied shade, they also established a foundation for the cliff soil (what’s to stop the erosion now?), and had natural beauty for all to appreciate. Every year, either the city or neighbors living directly east of this location would trim the bushes when they grew too high, blocking the beach/ocean view. They were irrigated naturally from the continuous underground flow of water from the hills above. I have known surfer gurus, over the past 50 years, who

camped under them as well as a continuous flow of children, including my own, who played there. Not a single person ever developed a rash or itching associated with these bushes. I am suspicious that the developer involved with the newly built projects on Neptune Place immediately north and south of Playa del Sur influenced the city regarding this unnecessary removal. The bushes were never thought to be a health hazard before the developers arrived. Why weren’t the locals, the Friends of WindanSea, and the La Jolla Town Council notified before this inexcusable decision for removal was made in a completely arbitrary way? Is the city so arrogant that it wouldn’t even consider the effects of this action on neighbors who enjoyed the plant life and accompanying view? This is a terrible mistake and it should be corrected with the planting of new vegetation

that will survive just fine using the existing water table to self-irrigate. And, we — who actually live here — will take responsibility for any trimming needed, as we already have. Bill Rogers

Caution on changing the PDO The Aug. 20 front-page story (bit.ly/lajollapdo) in the La Jolla Light reporting that Claude-Anthony Morengo of the La Jolla Village Merchants Association wants to get rid of any building restrictions, I say, of course he does, he is a developer and home builder.

OBITUARIES

Michael Hubert Gay, Capt., USN (ret.) 1944 – 2015

Capt. Gay was born May 11, 1944, in Honolulu, HI, and passed away August 6, 2015, after a long battle

with Parkinson’s Disease. He was affectionately known throughout his life as ‘Buzzy’, a nickname given him by local soldiers in Hawaii because of his perpetual airplane imitations. His very early years were spent in Kauai and San Francisco prior to moving to La Jolla at the age of five. He then attended Bird Rock Elementary School through grade six followed by what was then La Jolla Jr./Sr. High. From high school he briefly attended San Diego State University before transferring to UCLA. Following graduation, he was accepted in OCS receiving his commission in Army intelligence and becoming a member of

their Special Forces unit serving two full tours in Vietnam. Ironically, he subsequently served in the Navy Reserve for 20 years retiring as a Navy Captain. After returning from the war, he attended Hastings College of Law receiving his J.D. followed shortly thereafter by graduate work at New York University receiving an LLM. And it was during law school that he met and eventually married Gloria Knox in March, 1975 and in 1990 had their most precious possession, a beautiful daughter, Lauren, who became and was always the apple of her father’s eye. A varied legal career took him through the corporate world

including DynaMed, Fujitsu, U.S., eventually culminating at Sun MicroSystems that took him from Silicon Valley to Boulder and to San Diego. Buzzy enjoyed life, surfing in his youth while spending many hours on the beach, was a prodigious reader, loved hanging with close friends, but most of all traveling with daughter Lauren all over the world. He particularly liked to go skiing with her while crowning himself ‘King of the Greens.’ As his Parkinson’s progressed, the thing that kept him going was the everlasting love for Lauren, constant humor and support from his personal assistant and

dear friend, Bryan Palmer, and his love and devotion for and from his fiancée, Marilyn Macrate. He will always be known for his sense of humor, as Master of Ceremonies for his high school reunions and, most importantly, his caring for others. He was preceded in death by his mother, Betty Plaister Gay, and his father, Hubert Gay. He is survived by his daughter, Lauren. Services will be held Saturday, August 29, 2015, at 4:30 pm at La Jolla Christian Fellowship, 627 Genter St., La Jolla, immediately followed by a Celebration of Life at Harry’s Coffee Shop where he and friends spent many a morning.

City on the hook for problems at the Cove Lifeguard Tower I support Doug Burleigh’s letter in the Aug. 20 issue about the embarrassing construction process, aka the Cove Lifeguard Tower Station. The La Jolla Cove area is one of the premier tourist sites in San Diego. Surrounding, what I now think of as the “Developing World Lifeguard Tower and Sidewalk Ramp Construction Project” are the public sidewalks, beach access stairs, showers and bathroom facilities, which I understand, are scheduled for replacement by the city. Since the start of the tower and ramp project, the sidewalks and beach access stairs are most always covered by a very thick layer of sand and debris, and the showers and toilet facilities are disgustedly dirty and minimally maintained. Thousands of tourists and residents of San Diego wade through and around this area every day. The combined effects of the above do not reflect well on the City of San Diego. The community of La Jolla should be disappointed about this once beautiful area and how it reflects on the memory of the thousands of tourists who have visited the Cove since the start of the never-ending lifeguard tower and sidewalk ramp construction project.

Senator’s bill seeks $9 million to tap ‘rivers in the sky’

uring the Aug. 13 La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) meeting, 39th District State Senator and La Jolla resident Marty Block noted that Gov. Jerry Brown, while in San Diego just days before to address the drought, vowed to cut San Diego some slack in complying with the state’s stern water mandate. “He got an earful on how the conservation we’ve done in San Diego in the last two decades (including the desalinization plant opening soon in Carlsbad) really makes the additional limits he’s placing on us unfair — and I truly think he heard that,” said Block, adding his general support for desalination. Block’s own water-saving efforts include authoring Senate Bill 758, which would establish the Atmospheric Rivers: Research, Mitigation, and Climate Forecasting Program. The bill, currently before the Assembly Appropriations Committee, would study ways to tap into atmospheric rivers to help combat drought conditions and solve California’s water shortage. “The folks from UCSD and Scripps Institute came to us and told me there are rivers in the atmosphere you can’t see, but that regularly come through and basically have as much water as the Mississippi River,” Block said, noting his bill seeks to provide $9 million for research to tap into these rivers in the sky when they soar past San Diego. “We’re not very good at predicting when they’re going to be here and we’re not very good at tapping the

water source.” Block said Scripps Researchers, including Martin Ralph, Ph.D., Director of the Center for Western Weather & Water Extremes at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, told him researchers are working to develop a method to “properly seed these rivers when they’re coming over California to dump water on California. If we have additional infrastructure we can collect that water, whether it’s large reservoirs or just individual folks having large tanks to use water themselves.” Each year during the fall, federal law requires that water be drained from State Senator Marty Block local reservoirs “even in a drought because there’s a fear of flooding,” Block said, noting that knowing when atmospheric rivers might arrive could help avoid this needless water waste. “If we know atmospheric rivers aren’t coming that year we wouldn’t have to dump the water,” he said. Block said the heavy el niño year forecasted might temporarily ease some of the region’s water woes, “but they’ll be back,” he said. “You can be sure of that.” —Pat Sherman u

Drowning is the second leading cause of accidental death among children. For minority kids, and those under age 4, it is the No. 1 cause. The Swim24 organization helps underprivileged children gain knowledge in the water through swim lessons. Captain Ciara Franke is leading the team for a second year. Last year, as the youngest team, Team Vicious and Delicious was the top overall team. This year, they hope to do the same.

By Tom murphy La Jolla Youth Baseball

Watching the Little League World Series on television reminds us how exciting youth baseball is and what great life lessons and outstanding sportsmanship are on display for the world to see. La Jolla Youth Baseball had two all-star teams that played late into the summer tournaments, both of which ended their outstanding post-season run in the Super Region tournaments. The La Jolla Pony All Stars lost to a team that went all the way to the Pony World Series Championship game before falling to Chinese Taipei. La Jolla Pony opened up the Super Region tournament in West Covina facing West Hills, a team that went undefeated through Section and Region and won most of their games with 15-20 runs by mercy rule. Not intimidated by the hype, Pony pitchers Austin Schroeder, Alex Monell and Michael Campagna threw a combined shutout to upset the top seed 2-0. Blaise Gimber hit an RBI double to drive in the winning run in the fourth inning to put La Jolla up for good. The La Jolla Pony families chartered a bus to deliver a rooting section on a weeknight in L.A., which added to the fun of the victory. The following Saturday, La Jolla Pony played the best team in the country and learned the hard way why they ended up in the World Series final. San Bernardino touched the plate five times in the first inning with two home runs followed by 13 runs and two more homers in the third inning. In a double-elimination format, La Jolla regrouped and put on a hitting clinic the next day, eliminating Cypress 13-3. The game was back and forth with five lead changes heading into the fifth inning, sparked by a Trevor Ace home run Everything was working at the plate for La Jolla Pony in the fifth, including a two-run blast by Campagna, a bases-loaded walk by Jesus Labra, a two-run single by Monell, an error and a three-run home run by Campagna. Monell pitched a complete game and had total command on the hill against a solid Cypress team.

With a chance to advance to the Zone Tournament, La Jolla Pony had to play a double-header and a rematch against West Hills in an elimination game. Campagna pitched the first five innings with La Jolla Pony taking an early 3-1 lead. West Hills proved their reputation as an offensive powerhouse as they built up a 10-5 lead. Schroeder hit a timely three-run bomb to rally La Jolla within two runs after four innings. Unfortunately West Hills tacked on six more runs for a 16-8 final score and put an end to the La Jolla Pony season. The team held their heads high and were proud of their success along the way thanks to manager Tim Scott and coaches Mike McNally and Neil Hyytinen. For eight of the players, it marked their final game with LJYB, they move on to high school baseball: Trevor Ace, Michael Campagna, Blaise Gimber, Jesus Labra, Lachlan MacDonald, Alex Monell, Bobby Murphy and Marcus Scott. La Jolla 10U Mustang all-star team completed their run through the playoffs with a heartbreaking 9-5 extra-inning loss to West Covina followed by a frustrating 14-3 loss to Corona in the Super Region tournament. The La Jolla nine was in a position to take the first game leading 5-2 entering the bottom of the sixth inning. A hit batter followed by a double tightened the score 5-3. A pick-off and a diving catch by Jared Swerdlow put the boys within one out from the win, but a bloop infield hit, a walk and a double tied the score and forced extra innings. The seventh inning was all West Covina as they ended the game in dramatic fashion with a walk off grand slam. The La Jolla Mustang team was beaten handily by Corona in the final game of the season. Two weeks ago, 350 LJYB players and their families attended â&#x20AC;&#x153;LJYB Night at the Padres.â&#x20AC;? It was a great community event and a fun way for everyone to celebrate the end of the 2015 season. As for this writer, this concludes the youth baseball experience for me, with three sons over the past 12 years in the program, and 75 articles published in the La Jolla Light since 2011. u

Readers Roundup

Library’s summer program nets La Jollan an iPad

Doctor says consider your emotional legacy along the path of life By Kristina HoucK ware of our “carbon footprint,” most of us consider the impact we have on the future of the planet, but psychiatrist Saul Levine says we also need to consider the “emotional footprint” we leave behind. “We all affect each other — and sometimes in minute ways,” said the UC San Diego professor emeritus in psychiatry and resident of Del Mar. “This goes for families, it goes for friends, it goes for people on the streets and in stores.” In his new book, “Our Emotional Footprint: Ordinary People and Their ExtraOrdinary Lives,” Dr. Levine shares a series of realityinspired novellas that follow the life stories of 10 different passengers in a single railcar. These individuals embody the relationships, life changes and unexpected events that make up the human experience. Through the lens of four B’s — Being, Belonging, Believing and Benevolence — Dr. Levine examines their lives, how they’ve affected others in the course of it, and how they may have been resilient in the defeat and gracious in success. The book is intended to encourage readers to evaluate their own lives. Born in Montreal, Québec, Levine earned his bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate’s degrees from McGill University. While living in Toronto, he was professor of psychiatry and head of the department of psychiatry at Sunnybrook Health Science Centre at the University of Toronto (1970-1993). Dr. Levine worked at UCSD since relocating to Southern California in 1993. In 2011, he retired as professor of clinical psychiatry and head of the department of psychiatry at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego. He continues to teach at the medical school, has a private psychotherapy practice, and serves as an expert witness and mediator in family and civil disputes. see emotional Footprint, B5

By asHley macKin a Jolla Library concluded a stellar summer reading program with near record participation and one very excited teenager. Homeschooled library patron Belisha Genin, 13, won an iPad for her participation in the program. Youth Librarian Bill Mallory presented Belisha with her iPad Aug. 21 at the 7555 Draper Ave. library. “We’re so glad we get to give this prize to a La Jolla Library patron, especially one who loves to read, like she does,” he said. Others who completed the citywide summer reading challenge – by logging 10 hours of reading or reading 10 books – each received a gift bag full of goodies, and were entered into a drawing to win an iPad. The San Diego Central Library provided three iPads for the winners — one for toddlers, one for ages 3-11, and one for ages 12-18. see liBrary, B10

Senior swimmers set Catalina record By micHele parente

(From left) Dave radcliffe, Bill spore and norm stupfel were part of six-man team, all over 80 years old, that swam from catalina island to the palos Verdes peninsula.

Special to La Jolla Light

When 84-year-old La Jolla native Don Baker heard that a group of 70-year-olds had set a record for being the oldest team to swim the 21-mile Catalina Channel, the competitive swimmer had one goal: Blow that record out of the water. On Thursday, Aug. 20 Baker and five other 80-somethings — including Carlsbad’s Bill Spore, 80, and San Diego High School graduate Dave Radcliff, 81 — did just that, completing a relay from the island to the mainland in 12 hours, 15 minutes and 23 seconds. Taking one-hour turns, the six octogenarians who make up The Old Men and the Sea team not only set the record for the oldest to swim the channel, they tacked on an extra mile or so to show up those 70-yearold upstarts even more. Baker, who swims daily at La Jolla Cove when he’s here for the summer from Arizona, said he dove into action by one of the oldest motivators — he was told he couldn’t do it. “These guys were telling me it was a record nobody’s ever going to break,” Baker

PauLa SeLby

said, of the 2013 relay accomplishment by La Jolla’s Swell Guys Too. “I thought, ‘I know a few guys who might do that,’” Baker said. So he called up some friends who called up friends, most of whom just happened to be internationally known swimmers. Then they trained for about 10 months.

“We’re all excited about doing something that’s never been done before,” Baker said. “It was sort of magical,” he said of the nighttime swim, which began at 11 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 19. “With each stroke, you could see the fluorescence of your arm in the water. That’s all the light I needed.” see senior swimmers, B11

Let Inga Tell You

Technodespondence

La Jolla Cultural Partners

here are infinite numbers of things that can go wrong with your computer. And Microsoft thinks of new ones every day. I have a personal hate-hate relationship with all things technical, which includes computers, software, cell phones, and the entire workforce of Time Warner Cable. I am suffering from serious technodespondence. I really don’t do anything that weird. I’m very careful about what e-mails I open, have good virus protection, rarely text, don’t do social media or download videos. So it is truly unfair that I’m dealing with as many techno problems as I am. Even 10 years ago, if your computer was working fine on one day and you didn’t mess with it, it would be working fine the next day, too. Not anymore. Unsolicited updates (that would be you, Microsoft) and undesired upgrades (Internet Explorer anyone?) are the curse of the modern world. They guarantee that whatever worked before will never work again. For example, all of a sudden these red circles with white exclamation points started appearing on my desktop files. Not a good sign. Many aggravating hours later, it turned out that I needed to go to McAfee, my virus protection software, and

select Disable Icon Overlays in Windows Explorer. But I never enabled them in the first place! Turns out to be some stupid McAfee upgrade that I didn’t ask for that alerts you that this file is not backed up. Like, I need to be tortured by my own virus software? On my iPhone, I accidentally upgraded to iOS7. I began to notice that I was missing most of my calls — it often wasn’t ringing even when I was holding the phone in my hands. My daughter-in-law finally explained that iOS7 had activated “Do not disturb” as an “upgrade” (hah! HAH!) that keeps your phone from ringing if you’re in “sleep mode” (which apparently happens after you haven’t used the phone for about seven seconds). Of course, I didn’t actually activate it because I had never heard of it, wouldn’t know how to activate it and didn’t want it in the first place. Because it was eating all my calls! Worse, it kept coming back! A stealth app. Gaaahhh! Online “Help”, alas, doesn’t speak English. (Actually, human help usually doesn’t either.) You have to know what you did to undo it. (See “icon overlays,” above.) For most new software, there IS no tech support (we’re talking about you, Google),

other than “community groups” for which you are depending on the kindness of totally inept strangers. My experience with community groups is: 1) nobody answers your question 2) lots of people answer your question but none of the solutions help 3) I can’t understand any of the solutions 4) the solutions will mess up my computer to the point that the original problem will seem insignificant. Change one little thing on your computer and it’s like the butterfly in Australia that flaps its wings and causes tornados in Kansas. Trying to fix it changes enough things to add monsoons in Asia. I have a mug that says, “The chief cause of problems is solutions.” I believe it fundamentally. Error messages, meanwhile, are a cruel psychological test. The one thing you can be assured of is that whatever it says is NOT the actual problem. It goes without saying that if Olof crumps before I do, I’m going to have to throw myself on top of his coffin and let them pile dirt on top of me. This is my worst fear, being left alone with my electronics. Every new appliance we get is more terrifying than the last. In my nightmare Olof-less world, the grandtots mess up the remote and I never watch TV again. Because who do you get to fix that stuff? Messed Up Remotes R’ Us? THIS, unemployed 20somethings, is the career of the future. I just can’t keep up. I don’t WANT to keep up. I just want everyone to leave my electronics alone I don’t want those 22 Microsoft “Updates” to automatically upload (download?) on my machine when

I go to turn it off. I know for a fact that there are evil forces contained in them. And I want to opt out of all cloud-related activities. Sunshine only! I want messages that go from here to there without stopping on some intermediary planet. If I were president, I would make it a law that no software can be released that isn’t supported by actual humans who: 1) answer within 15 minutes 2) can speak English understandable by 95 percent of native English speakers (meaning no one from either India or Alabama) 3) actually understand the product. If software should be introduced without tech support: First offense: $1,000. Second offense: $8 billion. Third offense: Hanging. I’m serious. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

Church members seek photos for centennial video project

ongregational Church of La Jolla, at the corner of Cave Street and Ivanhoe Avenue, will celebrate its centennial in 2016. As part of the celebration, the church is producing a video documentary about its historic building. However, the church is unable to locate photographs or architectural drawings of the church’s interior prior to 1935, when noted architect Carleton Winslow made major architectural changes to the chancel. Standard museum and archival sources for such photographs and drawings have been exhausted and the congregation is asking residents to search their attics and scrapbooks for photos of the church interior from this era for use in the documentary. There were many weddings, baptisms and services held from 1916 to 1934 and church officials suspect there are photos of some of these events. Anyone with materials that could be of interest is asked to phone the church office at (858) 459-5045 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday-Friday or e-mail office@lajollaucc.org to let someone know. u

Let’s Review Diana Saenger

‘Comedy of Errors’ is a rip-roaring hit

t’s a question whether or not the Old Bard himself would enjoy The Old Globe’s Summer Shakespeare Festival production of “The Comedy of Errors,” which is actually an adaptation of the Roman play “The Twins or The Menaechmus Brothers.” Judging by the reactions of the playgoers through the night I attended, I would say yes! This Shakespeare farce is set in 1920s New Orleans. Leaving Syracuse, Antipholus of Syracuse (Glenn Howerton) and his servant, Dromio of Syracuse (Rory O’Malley) are off on a mission. Both are identical twins who never met their brothers. Another town, another possibility! Howerton plays both Antipholus of Syracuse and Antipholus of Ephesus. Rory O’Malley plays both Dromio of Syracuse and Dromio of Ephesus. What these characters don’t know is that their twins are in Ephesus and will soon be part of a hilarious mix up that involves the entire town. Their first encounter results in a long story and confusion about Egeon (Patrick Kerr), a man who claims he and his twin sons were lost in a sea storm. The Duke of Ephesus (Austin Durant) informs Egeon that their law forbids merchants from

Syracuse to enter Ephesus, but if he pays a $1,000 fine he can stay. As Antipholus of Syracuse and Dromio of Syracuse browse around town, their lives become a comic adventure. Antipholus sends Dromio to deposit money at the inn they will frequent. The next time he sees Dromio (not knowing it’s not “his” Dromio) he asks about the money, Dromio says he never got any money from him. Antipholus gives him a lashing with his hat for lying. It’s situations like this that fill the plot. Adriana (Megan Dodds), wife of Antipholus of Ephesus throws fits when her husband runs out on her. When she meets Antipholus of Syracuse she begs him to come home. He is aghast, having no clue who this woman is. The show continues with a laugh a minute thanks to direction by Scott Ellis, a seventime Tony Award-nominee. What ups the game is the setting on the outdoor stage. The buildings of New Orleans could have been brought in from the wild party town itself. A talented and enthusiastic ensemble marches through the street and through aisles with their horns, drums, and banjos belting out tunes such as “Tiger Rag,” and

North Coast Rep Season Opener

‘The Fox on the Fairway’ flourishes with farce P By Diana Saenger lays by Ken Ludwig are popping up in a lot of theaters this summer because the clever writer creates the most delicious comedies. “The Fox on the Fairway,” opening Sept. 9 at the North Coast Repertory Theatre, joins Ludwig’s list of fabulous farces, which include “Lend Me a Tenor,” “Moon Over Buffalo,” and now playing at The Old Globe, “Baskerville: A Sherlock Holmes Mystery.” “Fairway” is yet another production with non-stop laughs. A tournament is about to take place at the Quail Valley Golf Club and bets at the club are flying through the locker room like Frisbees. When a beleaguered country club president, his cocky nemesis from a neighboring club, a newly minted (but thoroughly love-besotted) golf pro, a sexy waitress, his sex-starved vice president and his suspicious wife get together, golf balls and clubs may have new targets! The action is directed by Matthew Wiener, who guides a cast of six that includes Kyle Sorrell, Ashley Stults, Kevin Bailey, Brian Salmon, Jacquelyn Ritz and Roxane Carrasco. Of her “bluesy and blowsy” role, Ritz said, “I have a lot of fun and I kiss just about everyone. Playing farce stretches different muscles (than a dramatic role) and you have to be very physically present. It’s not Shake-

Pamela (Jacquelyn ritz) and Muriel (roxane Carrasco) in ‘The Fox on the Fairway’ at north Coast repertory Theatre AAron rumley

speare, but it’s not unlike Shakespeare in that you must maintain the energy to be aware of the technical elements and to stay focused.” Carrasco said her role “is stretching my acting chops.” “My part is intended for an overweight woman who is as sturdy as a German tank,” she said. “The role is so unlike me physically; however it’s fun because normally I am more graceful and now I’m brutish and unattractive.” Although the plot is rooted around golf, those who don’t play won’t have a problem

understanding what’s going on. “I’m a golfer, and as I started reading the play, I assumed there might be some inside jokes that only golfers would get,” Carrasco said. “But you don’t have to know anything about golf, you just have to know people and recognize stereotypes.” “My character is not a golfer,” Ritz said. “She doesn’t know a lot about the game, but would like to learn more. She’s in the club because she’s on the board, so she’s interested in the stakes, the lifestyle of the club, who’s going to get married next —

those kinds of things.” Both actresses are big fans of Ludwig’s works. “In a farce, we try to solve problems in a hurry and, of course, the crazy things just keep happening,” Ritz said. “I have to calm Justin down, and the only way I know how to do that is to give him a big kiss on the mouth … just then his girlfriend walks in … I have to pretend I’m struck with sudden blindness.” Carrasco added her favorite moment is the scene where “I end up having a romantic moment when you least expect it.” Ritz said, “Ludwig is a master at creating moments we dig ourselves into and then have to dig ourselves out of kicking, screaming and laughing. His jokes are really funny, and yet smart in that he sees the irony of the situations.” Carrasco added, “He is a wonderful writer. You know these people because he’s able to capture the stereotypes and that makes it easy to develop a love-hate relationship for them. As an actress, I love that because it makes it easier to play and for the audience to understand what’s going on.” u n If you go: “The Fox on the Fairway” runs Sept. 9-Oct. 4 at North Coast Repertory Theatre, 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach.

From Library, b1 “I like reading very much, and it’s that much more fun when you can win something,” La Jolla resident Belisha said of her participation. An avid reader, she prefers fantasy and action books, and has too many favorites to name. She said she appreciated getting to choose the books she would read to meet the program requirements. “You get to read whatever you want, which to me is better rather than being forced or told what to read,” she said. “I’m happy the library is offering us really good books.” Belisha said she would join the program again next summer and encouraged other young people to do the same. “Reading is interesting and fun … and it’s a different experience from watching TV or listening to something,” she said. Mallory explained the City of San Diego facilitates the summer reading program, but the La Jolla branch adds its own special touch. “Studies have shown that if kids read during the summer, their brains become more active, they forget less of what they learned during the previous year, and they are ready for the new school year at a much faster pace,” he said. The gift bag participants receive includes

restaurant coupons, museum passes and age-appropriate toys. Pre-teens get ear-buds and younger readers get their choice of a recorder or inflatable guitar. But La Jolla goes the extra mile. “Not every branch does this, but at La Jolla, for every 10 books kids read beyond the required 10, we give them a free book along with their gift bag,” Mallory said. “We have some really good community members who donate these great books and we make sure we give them out to the children as a further incentive.” Another component of La Jolla’s summer reading program is the special guests. More than once, animal ambassador organizations visited the library for live animal shows. Afterward, they’d show their audience where to find books on animals “to bridge the gap between what they love and how they can read about it,” Mallory said. The La Jolla Library had 679 young readers sign up this summer, and more than 350 completed the program. It officially ends at the end of August, so readers still have a chance to log their hours/books and collect their prizes. u n For a lineup of fall programming, visit lajollalibrary.org/events

From Senior SwimmerS, B1 The men might all be accomplished swimmers — Radcliff, for example, who now lives in Oregon, was an All-American at the University of California Berkeley and competed in the 1,500-meter freestyle in the 1956 Olympics in Melbourne, Australia — but when they boarded the support boat that traveled the course alongside them, they were showing their age. “Here were these 84-, 85-year-olds, they stumbled up the stairs, they were like old men, but when they got in the water, they looked like the fit swimmers that they are, not even looking up, just swimming,” said Spore, a retired physician. “That was a thrill for me to see that.” Paula Selby, 60, of La Mesa, a member of the Catalina Channel Swimming Federation board who acted as one of two official observers for the relay, said a few of the team members struggled a bit in the water due to being disoriented at night.

“You want to cut these guys some slack,” she said, laughing. “They’re role models, they’re the shining example that you can still pursue remarkable goals, and it is a remarkable feat. I hope I’m in the position to swim in the channel in my 80s. That means I’m doing something right.” Colin Depp, an associate professor of psychiatry at UC San Diego who specializes in aging, said the swimmers are sending the message that people can continue to set ambitious goals for themselves no matter their age. “It’s an achievement not just for this group but for people’s perception of aging, what people are capable of in their 80s,” Depp said. “People are expanding the life span, and they’re also expanding the health span.” Exactly, said Baker, a retired pharmacist who attended La Jolla High School and lived in Escondido for 40 years. Two members of The Old Men and the

Sea have prostate cancer. Baker himself has metastatic cancer spreading through his body, has limited use of his legs and has had nine stents put into his heart. “Just because you have a disease state or health issues in your 80s, that doesn’t mean you can’t have goals and go and achieve something special every year,” Baker said. “There’s your headline: ‘Go Achieve Something Special Every Year.’” Dressed only in regulation swimsuits — no wetsuits allowed — and one swim cap and goggles, the men found ideal conditions in the water. Temperatures were in the warmer-thanaverage low 70s. Minimal swells and winds, which usually kick up in the morning hours, actually calmed even more than they had been, Selby said. “I think the sea gods were looking down on them,” Selby said. To that, Baker joked, “Yeah, the sea god said, ‘These poor 80-year-olds, I’m going to give them a break.’”

In between swimming their legs of the relay, the men could eat, sleep or cheer on their fellow teammates from the side of the support craft, a sports fishing boat outfitted with nearly 20 bunk beds. When the 12th and final leg — completed by Baker — ended on the sandy beach at Portuguese Bend on the Palos Verdes Peninsula around noon Thursday, The Old Men and the Sea were greeted with fanfare by friends, family, noted competitive swimmers and members of the media. After napping at their hotel in San Pedro, the men got dressed up, gathered for photos and headed to a celebration banquet attended by about 50 people. All of the fuss seemed a little out of proportion to Spore, considering most of the team members are master swimmers and individual record holders. “Thank you for making more of this than it is,” Spore cracked. “We’re pretty old to be celebrities.” u

The La Jolla Woman’s Club is proud to be hosting A Night to Network, Thursday September 10, 2015 from 5:30-8:00 PM at the Clubhouse, 7791 Draper Avenue La Jolla. This complimentary event is open to men and women. In addition to light appetizers and a cash bar, we have guest speaker UCSD Professor Todd Salovey. Learn how your first 60 seconds can win a client, an account, a collaborator, even a position. • The audience is making decisions about You, Your Message, Your Skills, and Your Information the MOMENT you begin. • In truth, your presentation is won or lost before you even walk in the door. • We will focus the discussion on the effect you wish to attain, the relationship you want to establish, as well as how to radiate confidence in yourself and your material. You can be a standing ovation presenter when you win the first 60 seconds. Mr. Todd Salovey (MFA UCSD) teaches acting in the undergraduate theatre program, as well as teaching Introduction to Theatre, graduate directing, and supervising many graduate student instructors. He is in his 25th season as the San Diego REP’s Associate Artistic Director. RSVP to president@lajollawomansclub.com This event is part of a broader effort by the LJWC to expand its community offerings, especially those focused on important aspects of home, health, and career. While the Club has in the recent past been more of a social club, it began in 1894 as a group of forward thinking, politically active women including famed San Diego benefactor, Ms. Ellen Browning Scripps. To reestablish that core focus and address the concerns of the modern woman, we are reaching out to recruit new members and offer value to the community. We currently host monthly meetings (luncheons and dinners) with speakers and entertainment centered on the arts, home, and career. Open to members of the community, we provide Silver Sage Yoga Wednesdays at 3:00PM with instructor Carolyn Boline. Upcoming events include our Women in Leadership Speaker Series with Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman November 4th and future networking speaker Wells Fargo chief economist, Mr. Marc Doss, January 21, 2016.

Back-to-school food lessons, Part 1

s the dog days of summer fade into the classroom, whether grade school or grad school, students need to shift their energy from brawn to brains and pick foods that fuel the mind. Here’s a list of no-brainers for a stellar fall semester. n Brain Food: Studies have shown that pregnant women who eat “brain food” rich in omega-3 fatty acids (like carefully chosen fish and seafood) may boost their children’s IQs. Einstein was found to have, during his autopsy, 73 percent more glial cells than the average brain. These form during the embryo’s development, so Mama Pauline must’ve been eating right. Einstein himself ate plenty of fish. Best to stick to wild-caught, deep sea, cold-water ones like salmon, herring, sardines, mackerel and shrimp. Two of the omega-3s in fish known as DHA and EPA are key fatty acids that keep brain cells and neurotransmitters well-lubricated and vibrant, improving mood, wiring and cellto-cell communications, which translate to better focus and thinking quickly on your feet. Seaweed and other oceanic veggies are also treasure-troves of brain nutrients. n An Egghead: It’s no yolk that eggs are a near perfect package. The whites provide a rich protein store, while the yolks have a mother lode of choline, a watersoluble nutrient of the B-complex family. Choline dials up memory, focus and cognitive function, so get cracking at breakfast, lunch or dinner with devilled, poached, frittatas, omelets, foo youngs, scrambles, or egg salad sandwiches. n The Nutty Professor: How fitting that walnuts loaded with brain-boosting

plant omega-3s, aka alpha-linolenic acid, resemble miniature hemispheres of the brain. These essential fatty acids have been linked to blocking signals produced by free radicals that create inflammation. Walnuts’ omega-3s increase cognitive functioning similar to fatty acids from animal sources by keeping the brain lubricated and lively. They also bolster melatonin levels, one of the sleep regulating hormones. So if you’re having trouble catching your zzz’s, munch on some soporific walnuts before bedtime making you well rested and alert in the a.m. n Use Your Bean: Other brainiacs like Beethoven had a penchant for very strong coffee — 60 beans per cup. More than 100 million people in this country start their day with a java jolt. The coffee bean is packed with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and even brain-friendly caffeine. After decades of debate, jo is considered a high-octane brain fuel when consumed in moderate amounts. Caffeine, in particular, has been linked to boosting short-term memory, increasing focus and problemsolving skills. Pure dark chocolate with a cocoa content over 70 percent is a brain stimulating food packed with catechins and antioxidant flavonoids — eight times the number found in strawberries. This blissful bean elevates mood and cognitive functions, so indulge guiltlessly. Finally, Technicolor lentils in red, orange, green and brown varieties are packed with folate to hike dopamine levels, which ratchets up mood and mental performance. u — For additional “brain food” recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com or visit freerangeclub.com

Surf event raises funds for UCSD Moores Cancer Center

hey were Surfing for a Cure on Aug. 9 in La Jolla Shores where UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center held its 22nd annual Luau and Legends of Surfing Invitational. The day began at the beach below Scripps Pier with a surfing tournament where the emphasis is on participation and support for the cause rather than an individual’s surfing ability. Each of the sponsored teams was paired with a surfing legend to vie for traditional trophies. The Luau festivities celebrated the victories under tents where attendees watched traditional Polynesian dancing while dining at a tropical buffet. u Photos by Vincent AndrunAs

Building your Team In the art of building, we use words like craftsmanship, skill, leadership, management, professionalism, honor and teamwork. Recognized in the professionals who make up your building team, these terms reflect the roles and standards of builders, architects, financial representatives, engineers, artisans and craftsman who together realize and influence the outcome of your project. Builder - At the heart of your team is the general contractor (GC) aka the builder. This role is one of leadership and sets the values and professionalism of your project. Similar to a coach, your builder assembles and

manages the team on your behalf. At GDC Construction, four generations of building experience has established a standard of excellence, transparency in accounting, purchasing power, and the vision to create a timeless product and trusted relationships. Architect / Designer – Typically considered the brains of the project, it is the architect who formulates the plans and defines the style and function of a project. Communicated with architectural blueprints, the plans are the language of the architect. ”It is the skill of the builder to read and actualize the architect’s ideas within the framework of the projects approved plan. Cost, neighbors, site, building and community codes are all a factor that the builder must incorporate in the translation of the architect’s vision of your project,” says Michael Morton, AIA principal at Marengo Morton Architects. Estimator – Delivering a realistic and transparent cost analysis of a job, prior to the start of your project, is critical to both

the home owner and the builder. A working knowledge of conditions, cost of materials, number of hours and fair market labor costs are key in the formulation of a clear and accurate budget for a project. At GDC, our reputation is built on attention to detail, accuracy in time and cost analysis, clear communication, transparency, and our unchanging dedication to quality. Project Manager – The touchstone on your project is the operations director or Project Manager. They are the conduit between you, the builder and the field supervisor and they oversee the details of your project from beginning to end. “A through and conscientious project manager’s attributes are good communication skills and an understanding of all the factors that impact the success and timely completion of your project,” says Alison Dorvillier of InPlace Studio. “Educated and practiced in the management of custom home and renovation projects, the project managers at GDC Construction

are the human factor who support you and direct the team.” Supervisor – Another essential player to the team is the field supervisor. The “super” runs the job on a daily basis and is the go to person on the job site. Similar to the role of the general contractor, they assign and manage the crew to assure the project is on time, on budget and within the scope of the plan. With 30 years of experience, our supervisors work on your behalf to assure that your project moves along as planned and that the quality of the project, from the foundation to the finishing touches are upheld. Vendors/Craftsman and Artisans – The quality and details of a project rest in the hands of the tradesman. Quality of material and craftsmanship are determined by the excellence of product and skill.

Kathryn Kanjo named MCASD deputy director From mCASD reportS

Kathryn Kanjo

The board of trustees for the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) named its chief curator, Kathryn Kanjo, Deputy Director of Art and Programs. “Kathryn Kanjo is one of the leading curators in the country. This welldeserved promotion recognizes her many achievements at the museum,” said Hugh M. Davies, The David C. Copley Director & CEO. “She’s an incredible asset to the museum and her passion for art, community outreach, and the curatorial process is unmatched.” Early in her career, Kanjo served as MCASD’s assistant curator (19921994) and later associate curator (1994-1995). She returned to the museum in 2010 to serve as the organization’s chief curator. In the last five years, Kanjo has conducted eight new hires in a department of 10, including associate curator Jill Dawsey, education curator Cris Scorza and registrar Tom Callas. She’s mounted several oneperson projects by mid-career artists such as Spencer Finch, Isaac Julien, Ai Weiwei, Liza Lou and James Drake, even as she developed ambitious surveys of established artists such as John Valadez and Jack Whitten. Presenting a series of collection exhibitions at both the La Jolla and Downtown San Diego locations, she has refocused attention on the depth of the museum’s permanent collection holdings and has overseen the most active loan and acquisition schedule in the institution’s history. Directorship is not new for Kanjo, she’s held the title for more than half of her career, first as executive director of Artpace San Antonio (20002006), and later as director of the University Art Museum at UC Santa Barbara (2006-2010). Kanjo received her M.A. in Art History and Museum Studies from the University of Southern California and her B.A. in Art History and English Literature from the University of Redlands. Kanjo lives in San Diego with her husband, David Jurist, and their two children. mcasd.org u

he La Jolla office of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties at 1299 Prospect St., recently welcomed sales associate Jamaica Grace to its team. “Jamaica has extremely high standards,” said branch manager Nicki Marcellino. “She is a detail-oriented individual with uncompromising integrity and the experience necessary to guide her clients through the ever-changing real estate market.” Of her career path Grace said, “I have been working as a Realtor for 12 years. Prior to that, I worked in banking and interior design, which I feel has really prepared me for this career and given me insight that other agents may not possess.” Grace said she has a strong understanding of the financial aspects of buying and selling

a home, and enjoys working with her clients as they experience the process for the first time. A fourth-generation San Diegan, she has lived in several communities throughout the city. She completed her education at the University of Guam before returning to San Diego and eventually making La Jolla her home with her 10-year-old son. As a mother and businesswoman, the busy Grace finds time to volunteer at La Jolla Elementary School, stay active in La Jolla Woman’s Club and La Jolla Historical Society, and take care of her puppy. She can be contacted at (619) 316-0423 mobile, (858) 459-0501 office, or e-mail jamaica@jamaicagrace.com u — Press Release
