City looks into confusing WindanSea condo signage By Pat Sherman Last week, several La Jolla Light readers wrote to complain about what they view as confusing signage on the recently completed One Neptune condominium complex at 6767 Neptune Place in WindanSea. An arrow, meant to provide direction to the main entrance, points the wrong way up Playa del Norte, a one-way street that heads down toward the coast. One irate reader, Lee Miller, said he witnessed as many as 20 motorists driving the wrong way up Playa del Norte one weekend since the directional signage — also illuminated at night — was installed. “This is a very narrow, winding, street with several blind curves,” Miller said. “Residents and many tourists from the Travelodge, Holiday Inn Express & Su Casa (restaurant) either drive or walk down this street. … It is a tragedy waiting to happen.” See Signage, A16

Revise the PDO? Village merchants chief says it’s time! By Ashley Mackin Although not part of the La Jolla Village Merchant’s Association (LJVMA) agenda for its Aug. 12 meeting at the Cuvier Club, association president ClaudeAnthony Marengo once again brought up his proposal to have the 31-year-old La Jolla Planned District Ordinance (PDO) updated. During his president’s report, Marengo said he’d like to gather feedback on how and to what extent La Jolla’s blueprint for design could be reviewed or revised. At the July 2 La Jolla Community Planning Association meeting and July 9 La Jolla Town Council meeting, Marengo said his intent was to have the PDO, written in 1984, eliminated completely. “I was going for shock value … to encourage the city to act upon fixing the PDO as soon as possible,” he said. “The city is reactionary, if

70th anniversary of WW II’s end celebrated in La Jolla

S

an Diego Spirit of ’45 Day — a weekend of observances to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second World War — concluded in La Jolla Aug. 16 atop Mount Soledad with speakers, music and a wreath-laying ceremony. Similar ceremonies took place across the country that day, including one at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Ceremony. Retired Marine Jack Harkins, former chair of United Veterans Council, emceed the event. “San Diego continues to live up to its honored role as the birthplace of National Spirit of ‘45 Day and leads in the simultaneous national jubilations, much in the way that Americans celebrated on Aug. 14, 1945 at the end of World War II,” he said. At the La Jolla ceremony, approximately 100 participants placed flowers into wreaths in recognition of service. u

The alleged thief, wearing a blue shirt and tan hospital scrubs, handed a demand note to a teller at the Bank of America branch office in the 8800 block of Villa La Jolla Drive shortly before 10:30 a.m., according to San Diego police. The man, identified as 33-year-old Dennis Granato, became inpatient and fled the bank without any money.

Safety for Seniors

Speaker Atkins holds forum on scams and security By Ashley Mackin alifornia Assembly speaker Toni Atkins gathered a panel of public safety experts for a town hall meeting Aug. 7 at La Jolla Library, specifically addressing ways to protect senior citizens from identity theft and scams. “In the last few years, we’ve started looking at crime differently. It’s not just about locking your doors and windows,” she told the audience of about 75. “Technology has made incredible advances and allowed us to do incredible things, but unfortunately, technology is also being used creatively to do us harm. The bad guys are getting smarter and more sophisticated, so we have to be smarter, too.” She reported 1 billion personal records were exposed in data breaches last year, and there is a new identity fraud every two seconds. Panelists from the fields of real estate, trusts and estates, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), and the prosecutor’s office explained common scams and offered advice on how to protect yourself against them and what to do if your identity is stolen.

estate scams involves timeshares. When it comes to those who want to sell their timeshares, scammers seek them out and pose as someone able to sell it. “They call the timeshare owners and say they have or can find an interested buyer, and all the owner has to do is give them $500 to advertise,” she said. “Then they say, ‘If we can’t sell it, we’ll buy it from you.’ At the end of the listing period, the scammers offer

a dollar to buy the timeshare — keeping their promise, but not at a fair price.” Kilpatrick said you should never wire money to these companies, as they often have out-of-state accounts. When money is wired out of state, she said, it becomes much more difficult to track. “Unless you have verified the person calling is licensed or from the company from which you bought the timeshare, do not send them any

money,” Kilpatrick stated. She also offered suggestions to avoid being scammed in a real estate deal: n Know that every contract regarding real estate must be in writing, it can never be verbal. n Make sure you understand whatever you are signing, do not sign anything if any of the information is missing; don’t take anyone at their word they will fill out a See Safety, A6

Kilpatrick also advised checking references. “One of the things people do with real estate agents is get to know them and start to like them, and so folks trust them instead of checking their references. Never feel you are being impolite by asking questions.”

for names, date of birth, address, the ending of an account number or social security number. The panelists encouraged shredding any piece of mail or document you plan to throw away with such information on it. When it comes to catching identity thieves, “We at the DMV have something no one else has,” said investigator Elva Godoy. “If the person who committed the fraud and stole your identity came to the DMV (to get a license), they posed for a photograph and scanned a thumbprint. We have that information and will share it with the police.” In addition to using stolen information to obtain a fake ID, some identity thieves use it to register a car. After purchasing the car, if these scammers get parking tickets or other moving violations, they often don’t pay them. However, the DMV will send notices

of outstanding tickets to the car’s “owner” (the person who had their identity stolen). Godoy said when this happens, the person from whom the identity was stolen assumes the tickets were issued in error and throws them away. Instead, she said, “Go to the DMV and find out if the car is registered in your name … or call the DMV investigations (not the field office) number and they will tell you the last time you were in the DMV, which office and whether a photograph was issued.”

“Plan for the future and plan before you become incapacitated,” she said. “Ensure you have a successor in place, someone who can take over for you should something happen to you to pay your bills and protect your assets.” By planning ahead, she said, families and seniors can avoid the panic of being rushed in case of emergency. Banking on that rushed thinking, she said “trust mills” churn out one-size-fits-all trusts that do not meet an individual’s needs. Red flags that indicate a company might be a trust mill include patriotic names and eagles and flags in their advertising. “They also say if you don’t do what they suggest the government will collect on your estate,” she pointed out. “Or, if there is missing information — they are unwilling to provide the cost, benefits and liabilities in writing; or if they discourage a

www.lajollalight.com second opinion or pitch the cost as only being good for that one day.” Seniors, she said, are more likely to be subject to these trust and estate scams for a number of reasons. “Historically, seniors are the targets because they have saved their money and have more money than a younger person. Your generation trusts people, so you let people in, but letting other people in your life opens the door for fraud. You are retired, therefore you are home more often. If a senior has lost a spouse, they can get lonely. If the abuser is a family member, the elder might not want to get that family member in trouble so they will not report it.”

Common scams Rather than focus on one specific field, Deputy District Attorney Paul Greenwood offered insight into typical scams that target seniors — primarily jewelry theft, contractor swindles and phone stings. He also provided his top 10 tips for keeping seniors safe (see sidebar). Because of its small size, jewelry is the No. 1 item stolen from seniors, he said. “Unfortunately, jewelry is often stolen by a family member, caregiver or an unwatched tradesperson in the house for a legitimate reason,” he said. To protect yourself, he said, “Inventory all jewelry by taking a photograph of it and keep that photo separate from the actual jewelry. If it’s valuable, have it appraised.” To feel safer about having a caregiver in the home, Greenwood suggested those looking for such a person go through a bonded and insured agency, and ask what

LA JOLLA LIGHT - august 20, 2015 - Page A7

kind of background check it does before hiring someone. He also advised about contractor scams. “Any contractor doing more than $500 worth of work has to have a license from the state,” he said, which allows for all work to be accountable, so less likely to scam clients out of excessive amounts of money. “You can tell when contractors are unlicensed because they will ask for an excessive deposit. In California, the most a deposit can be is 10 percent or $1,000, whichever is less, as a holding deposit. So on a $5,000 roofing repair, the most they can ask for is $500.” To avoid being scammed over the phone, “Use Caller ID to your advantage,” he said. “If you receive a call from a private or outof-area phone number, be on guard. Even if the caller has a local area code, but is unknown, still be cautious.” The latest scam is someone posing as a lieutenant from the Sheriff’s Department claiming to have a warrant out for your arrest because you didn’t show up for jury duty or didn’t pay your taxes — which could be avoided if you give “the lieutenant” money. When they call, it’s from a phone number with a (858), (619) or (760) area code. “People think it’s local, so they panic,” he said. ”Just hang up and call the Sheriff’s Office to verify or report the scam.” As part of the presentation Atkins told the audience, “These speakers were not meant to scare you, but to make you more aware of how to protect yourself.” Atkins said her office representatives are on hand to hear citizen concerns at 4 p.m. on the third Thursday of every month at the library, 7555 Draper Ave. u

10 Safety Tips for Seniors Deputy District Attorney Paul Greenwood, who has been with the District Attorney’s office for 22 years (19 of them as head of the Elder Abuse Prosecution Unit), offered his top safety tips: 1. Be very careful who you hire as caregiver. 2. Inventory all jewelry. 3. Shred everything you are going to throw away if it has any information about you on it: Your address, name, bank, etc. 4. Protect incoming and outgoing mail: If mail is left in an unlocked mailbox with the red flag up, the thieves are going to see it and steal it. 5. Get some kind of credit check done: Doing credit searches or signing up for a credit monitoring service is a great way to prevent credit card fraud. 6. Use Caller ID, and be on guard if a call comes from a blocked or private number. 7. Any letter or phone call saying you are the winner of a foreign lottery is a scam. 8. If you know someone who is blind or poor sighted, encourage them to have their bank statements sent to a trusted advisor or family member who can read it to them. 9. Know the limits of what a contractor can request as a holding deposit. 10. Be very careful when you open your door. If there is a knock at the door, even if the person is in a uniform, do not answer it unless you know who it is or are expecting them. If in doubt, call the company they reportedly represent and verify they are supposed to be there.

Agreeing that “there should be some updates,” Joe La Cava, the city’s Community Planners Committee chair and La Jolla Community Planning Association second vice-president, said he did not think the PDO should be done away with completely. “We seem to be stuck in this malaise saying either we hate what’s going on, but we’re afraid to change it — or it’s not working, so let us throw it out and start over. We have to figure out how to work together to make these effective changes,” he said. “Clearly, it’s a very old document, but I’ve always been against people that say I don’t want change because once we open the door, we are going to lose control. La Jolla is pretty sophisticated and we can make those smaller fixes. I don’t disagree that there should be some updates, whether it’s a 10 percent (adjustment) or 100 percent or somewhere in the middle.” Three recent examples of projects that requested PDO deviations were cited: the Silver Street Village Homes 18-home townhouse development, Monarch Cottages Alzheimer’s residential care facility, and the retail space at 1111 Prospect St., former home of Hotel Parisi. The PDO committee granted the first two requested deviations from the PDO requirement that projects be mixed-use, with a ground-floor retail or commercial

However, owners of the 1111 Prospect St. property (which has been vacant for two years) have had difficulty renting the property reportedly due to the PDO retail requirement. Their recent request for a deviation from the PDO to allow for more office space was rejected. The PDO states buildings must have at least 50 percent of retail frontage and no more than 25 percent for office. The Prospect Street property owners sought 50 percent retail

and 50 percent office space. “My (intention) is to bring awareness that the PDO is antiquated. These deviations are not unique issues and they are going to be more common,” Marengo said. “The code does not work and people are going to find more deviations that do work for them.

though the PDO committee stopped short of approving the deviation for a stairway connecting Prospect Street and a new basement garage (to be used mainly as an emergency exit, Benton said). The PDO was concerned the stairway — adjacent the In Eden apartment complex — could potentially attract homeless individuals and be difficult to maintain. “The museum recognizes this would be a new maintenance responsibility, but is eager to be responsive to the community about this,” Benton told La Jolla Light following the meeting. The LJCPA approved the project by a vote of 11-1-1, with trustee Janie Emerson in opposition. Read more at bit.ly/MCASDatDPR

Music to their ears Last month La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation advisory board voted unanimously to approve parking plans for La Jolla Music Society’s (LJMS) new performing arts center, The Conrad. The 46-year-old arts organization received an additional feather in its cap Aug. 10 when the PDO unanimous approved the growth plan. However, LJMS president and artistic director Christopher Beach and a project architect first spent time allaying some lingering concerns about increased parking from the new music center and drainage issues on the property, which contains a 15-foot-wide water easement.

Construction on LJMS’s 500-seat concert hall and 150-seat cabaret room that comprise Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center (aka The Conrad), at 7600 Fay Ave., will begin next spring for a January 2018 grand opening — well in advance of MCASD’s conversion of Sherwood Auditorium to gallery space. Ray Porfilio, a principal with Epstein Joslin Architects, provided details about how The Conrad’s architecture, building materials, color scheme and landscaping are designed to complement and enhance the Village aesthetic, while meeting requirements of the La Jolla Community Plan. These include using transitions in bulk and scale to create visual interest and a sense of enclosure for pedestrians; larger structures that reduce actual or apparent bulk with the use of building articulation; landscaping that adds texture to blank walls, softening edges and providing a sense of pedestrian scale; and the use of open spaces such as The Conrad’s planned, interior courtyard.

Parking worries linger However, it was the LJMS’s parking plan that still troubled residents Bob Whitney, Ed Comartin and Frances O’Neill Zimmerman. Although The Conrad would provide only seven on-site parking spaces at the rear of the property, LJMS purchased 67 spaces in the Bank of America parking structure across Fay Avenue (at Kline Street), and has commitments for its patrons to use hundreds of spaces in other Village

By Pat Sherman Projects pivotal to the grown of two major cultural institutions in La Jolla advanced in the community review process this month, after presentations before the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) and its Planned District Ordinance (PDO) subcommittee, which both meet at La Jolla Rec Center. On Aug. 6, Paul Benton of Alcorn & Benton Architects gave a presentation on the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s (MCASD) plans to expand its Prospect Street campus by 53,469 square feet, including a new garage, main entryway, bookstore, gallery, and storage space. The project also involves converting MCASD’s Sherwood Auditorium to gallery space. La Jolla Music Society’s planned performing arts complex on Fay Avenue will replace the 500-seat Sherwood with an acoustically superior hall for concerts, performances and other community events. LJCPA recommended the city approve permits for the MCASD project, as well as four deviations from La Jolla’s Planned District Ordinance (PDO), or blueprint for design. The deviations requested were to accommodate stairs on the south side of the property and at Coast Boulevard, as well as some interior height, a wheelchair lift and an encroachment for an 80-foot-long entryway trellis. Last month, the PDO and Development Permit Review (DPR) committees recommended approval of the project,

parking structures within a 600-foot radius, including The Bishop’s School and Merrill Lynch garage (view a map of The Conrad’s available parking at theconrad.org). Asked why LJMS didn’t design an on-site, subterranean parking garage, Porfilio and Beach explained that the storm drain easement on the property would severely limit the number of such underground spaces, making the proposal unfeasible. “We looked at that,” Beach said, noting that several on-street spaces would be used for valet parking during performances. Comartin maintained the PDO document requires business owners to provide parking for their patrons on-site, though the city said LJMS’s purchase of spaces in the nearby Bank of America building satisfies that requirement. Comartin added he’s watched people back out of the bank’s parking entrance and turn around some mornings, because the lot is full. Removing 67 spaces for the society’s use would increase the shortage, he said. “I know you’re crossing all the t’s and dotting all the i’s,” Comartin said, “but the result is you’re not adding any parking, and that’s the concern under the PDO (document).” However, PDO committee member Deborah Marengo, of Marengo Morton Architects, said her staff parks in the bank building, and there’s never been a day when they were turned away. Athena Harmon with Harmon Realty, which manages the structure, said the only time the structure is full is one hour Wednesday mornings, when the La Jolla Real Estate Brokers’ Association holds its meetings. “That’s it — the rest of the time there are plenty of spaces,” she

Good for business Harmon said several large buildings constructed in the Village during the 1980s and ’90s had little or no parking, relying instead on off-site parking agreements similar to what LJMS is proposing. “That’s all we’re doing here; this is the same idea,” Harmon said, adding, “La Jolla needs this … high-end cultural addition to our community. It’s going to help building owners along Fay Avenue bring up (property) values and get high-level tenants to lease their properties. … Prospect Street and the (westernmost) block of Girard have been the highest-end lease rates and highest quality

tenants all these years. This is going to level out the values in the Village of La Jolla.” Porfilio added, “To my mind you don’t want the parking on-site for a building like this, because you want them to walk in the Village. Those are the people who are going to stop and use local restaurants or meet people to have a drink across the street.” In regard to drainage for The Conrad, situated in the lowest portion of the block, Porfilio said his firm is mimicking existing drainage patterns, while increasing drainage with such elements as permeable courtyard pavers. He said the floor-area ratio of the project — the size of a structure relative to its lot — is 1.15, though the city allows for a 1.3 FAR. Marengo made a motion (seconded by

PDO member Zimmerman) that the project conforms to the PDO, with the exception of naming and directional signage, which LJMS will return and present to the PDO when finalized. The Conrad also received praise during the DPR’s Aug. 11 meeting, though LJMS was asked to return to the Aug. 18 DPR meeting with: a copy of the traffic management plan; daytime hours when The Conrad’s interior courtyard will be open to the public; the scope of community events the center will be available for and the terms under which LJMS will make the space available; and details of plans to partner with local restaurants and businesses before and after performances at the center. u

Ameriprise:

Financial Planning with a personal touch By Marti Gacioch When Karen Purvis, CFP (Certified Financial Planner) and Jan Pretorius teamed up in 2002 to start their financial advisory practice, Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., the goal was to help their clients achieve their financial aims. Now 13 years later, that goal remains the same, but their business has grown to include eight employees and a much larger client base. Purvis, born in San Diego, earned a Bachelor of Science degree in managerial economics from UC Davis in 1994 before working for Ameriprise Financial Advisors in the Bay Area. She trained for her certification through the College of Financial Planning. Pretorius, who emigrated from South Africa in 1995, started as an Ameriprise advisor in 2001. “We met at Ameriprise, and in 2002, we merged to start our practice and I moved back to San Diego,” Purvis said. “My focus was on financial planning while Jan focused on investments.” As their business grew, they hired more advisors to support Purvis’ financial planning efforts, and an associate financial advisor to assist Pretorius with investment management. Pretorius has recently started marketing for their company. Purvis said their formula for success is the perfect blend of their personalities. “I love the planning side and helping clients reach their goals and reassessing each year how

they’re progressing toward those goals,” she explained. “Jan likes the investment allocation side of selecting the investments and reviewing their performance.” They meet with their clients annually to track their progress. “We insist on yearly planning meetings even though clients think they just need to plan things out once,” Purvis said. “We have found that people’s lives are constantly changing and our personal touch differentiates us from other financial advisors in that we get to know their life stories and that makes them comfortable in sharing information with us that could impact their financial goals.” For example, she said if a client is considering a job change, she helps them see the pros and cons of that decision — especially if a client is considering a commission-only job, because that could affect their investments and life-planning decisions. “We look at whether they’re staying on track, and if they’re not,” Purvis said, “we explore ways to get them back on track.” u n Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc. is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday at 4455 Morena Blvd., Ste. 215.

Senator Marty Block moves to La Jolla, voices opposition to Spectrum Act n Community groups pen letters to city opposing new relaxed wireless rules

State Senator Marty Block (D-39th), who represents La Jolla and moved here earlier this month, tells La Jolla Town Council Aug. 13 that he opposes AB 57. The bill, which is headed for a vote of the California Senate, would give the wireless industry free reign to install new cell phone facilities with no public notice. Pat Sherman

By Pat Sherman La Jolla Town Council (LJTC) continued the conversation on the hotly-contested federal Spectrum Act law during its Aug. 13 meeting at La Jolla Rec Center, as well as a concurrent piece of state legislation making it easier for companies to install new wireless facilities. Many La Jollans oppose the Spectrum Act, and a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) order enforcing it that would give the wireless communications industry free reign to expand the height, size and scope of existing wireless facilities. Meanwhile, state legislation, AB 57, would allow for installation of new cell tower sites and equipment — all without public noticing

and in excess of La Jolla’s 30-foot coastal height limit. Addressing LJTC Aug. 13, 39th District state Senator Marty Block — who moved to La Jolla this month — said he opposes the Spectrum Act and AB 57, authored by Assemblymember Bill Quirk (D-20th). The bill states, in part, that the California legislature “finds and declares that a wireless telecommunications facility has a significant economic impact in California and is not a municipal affair … but is a matter of statewide concern.” Block said, “It takes away the voice of the public when it comes to decisions on where to place cell towers and how to place and co-locate (place side by side) various functions on the towers.” Asked how many new facilities or expansions of existing facilities wireless companies could install under AB 57 and the FCC’s Spectrum Act order, Block said,

n Read more about La Jolla’s attempt to fight the Spectrum Act at bit.ly/SpectrumActLaJolla “It’s limitless — that’s the scary thing. I fear that as long as it’s profitable to put these things in, they’ll be placed all over.” Block noted that AB 57 went through amendments in two Senate committees after those committees initially rejected the bill. “In its current form, it’s not nearly as bad as it was when it passed the Assembly,” Block said, noting the committees have “taken some very specific statements about deadlines and made them more vague so that a city can say we want to give local residents 30 days to review (proposed installations). But it’s still not a bill that I can support, so I plan to vote against it.” See Spectrum Act, A26

From Signage, A1

Signage on the three-story One Neptune condo project points the wrong way up Plaza del Norte.

The project was developed by KD Development and designed by La Jolla’s Marengo Morton Architects. Claude-Anthony Marengo, a principal with Marengo Morton Architects, said the sign pointing to the main entrance was required by the fire department (an explanation Miller said he also received from an on-site sales agent). “We have contacted the city in regard to the e-mails we have received (about the signage),” Marengo responded, via e-mail, adding that he is awaiting a response from city fire officials to see if the arrow can be removed or covered up. “We have spoken to (project inspector) Lee Edging at the City of San Diego ... in anticipation of seeing what to do.” Lynda Pfeifer, a spokesperson for the city’s Development Services Department, said the city would send a crew from Streets Division to the site as soon as possible to reinstall a missing “Do Not Enter” sign that was removed during construction and not replaced. “A Code Enforcement case has been opened at Development Services (CED 227772) for further investigation,” Pfiefer responded, via e-mail. “As part of the investigation, the assigned investigator will make the appropriate contacts to the property manager or developer.” To check the status of this citizen complaint, visit the city’s OpenDSD website at: http://opendsd.sandiego. gov/web/CECases/Details/227772 u

Cove lifeguard tower project an embarrassment The construction of the new lifeguard station at La Jolla Cove should be studied as a good example of how to NOT run a project. This is the most poorly run project I have ever seen and I’ve worked in engineering for 30 years. Many days there was no one working on the job; on many other days, one worker would be on the job for a few hours, usually making little progress. The contractor poured the concrete ramp several (4?) months ago and recently installed a new railing. About a week later, they cut a large section of the new railing down and now the contractor has jack hammered up part of the ramp. I heard the slope did not meet a requirement. It’s bad enough that the contractor made the mistake, but it should not have taken the city several months to find out. The ramp should have been inspected within days after it was poured. This is both poor construction and poor oversight. I heard that the slope of the concrete floor inside the lifeguard station would also have to be fixed. While the lifeguard station project was limping along at a snail’s pace, the street was repaved in front of the Cove and up the hill to Girard Avenue. There were lots of workers on the job and it was done surprisingly quickly —

in only a few weeks. The Cove project has been underway for a year and a half. It probably won’t be finished until Christmas … unless more mistakes are found. The Empire State Building took one year to build, from start to finish. It is inexcusable that the city would allow this job to continue through TWO summers, inconveniencing the thousands of people who use one of the busiest beaches in San Diego. The job was poorly planned from the beginning. The city is responsible for that. I say the construction company on this job should be banned from ever doing another project for the city. The performance of the City Field Engineering department should be reviewed by an outside agency and not from within. The city should only hire project managers who have had at least five years experience in (doing) construction, so they know when a job is being done correctly … or not. Doug Burleigh

Me, me, me McMansions With all of the discussion about the McMansionization taking place in La Jolla, as a La Jolla native of 59 years, what I find most upsetting is the lack of respect and consideration for others that is displayed when individuals choose to build their homes according to what they want for themselves, and not taking neighbors and community

residents into account. I believe most of us would like to maintain some privacy without having maximum-square-footage-and-height homes with windows, porches and roof decks looming over us. Why is it that more people these days think bigger is better? With the choices we make, we must always remember to respect others and consider the effects our decisions have on one another. Janet Gentile

Let’s hold tradition dear Howard Singer’s broken record of whining without end knows no end (as he continues to appear at community advisory board meetings)! Why can’t he accept La Jolla’s long tradition regarding the name of its Christmas Parade. You have worn out your welcome, Mr. Singer! You should join with Ben Stein and other nonChristian voices who welcome the joy of this season. We have enough at-large Scrooge’s in the world today. u Lou Cumming

trends & events La Jolla gallery to feature ‘rich, warm palette’ of Joshua Smith

La Jolla’s Contemporary Fine Arts Gallery has been carrying the work of Joshua Smith for seven years and will host his next exhibit of original paintings, “The Journey,” starting with a reception from 6-9 p.m. on Saturday night, Aug. 22. Gallery owner Lisa Jacobsen said when she and her colleagues first saw Smith’s works while attending an art and framing event in Las Vegas, they were “immediately drawn to his unique style and subject matter.” “It was unlike anything we had ever shown at our gallery before,” said Jacobsen. “We love his rich, warm palette along with a bit of a moody feeling. We host an artist reception for Joshua once a year and he presents a new body of original works. This year’s show is work very personal to him about the path he and his family have been down for the last few years and the obstacles and challenges they have overcome. His collectors love to have the opportunity to hear him speak about his work.” Jacobsen added that Smith’s paintings are filled with symbolism and the deep meaning behind the works seems to draw people into the story. “They find the paintings very relatable to their own lives,” said Jacobsen. Smith’s paintings reveal a sense of risk taking and of constant exploration, done during the act of painting. They begin simply as landscape oil paintings, realistic, yet with a strong tendency to lean toward abstraction, and combine direct and indirect painting methods, observation of an actual place and the interpretation of that place through paint and solvents. The artist applies and drips solvents mixed with glazes onto the surface of each painting, activating the surface, sometimes complementing the imagery and sometimes confounding it. This process could never be controlled precisely and therefore, the appearance of the finished painting could never be predicted. “I use glazing and alla-prima painting methods to create a range of clarity and diffusion,” Smith explained. “My landscapes are a medium of ideas, the intangible qualities in life that can be seen through nature. I like a body of work to have a similar palette, to balance the warm with the cool, to balance color and temperature – giving the body of work precedence over the individual.” Only an artist trained in the strict regimens of classical painting and technique could accomplish paintings with such a heart of abstraction. Born into a family of interior designers, Smith has exhibited nationwide from California to Massachusetts. He received his BFA from the Art Institute of Southern California and his Master’s Degree in Fine Art from the Hartford Art School. Currently living in Southern California with his wife, Jackie, and children, Nathan and Nicole, Smith enjoys playing music when he’s not in the studio.

MADISON GALLERY presents

phiLip buLLER, boAz vAAdiA, nAtALiA wRobEL:

SummER GRoup Show PhiliP Buller is a designer as well as a painter. He prefers working on large-scale paintings, exploiting ambiguity and incorporating abstract elements to create naturalistic, captivating works of art suggesting universal themes. His work reflects his respect and admiration for the renaissance and Baroque masters while including references to photography, printmaking and other more contemporary processes.

Boaz Vaadia is an Israeli born internationally acclaimed sculptor whose timeless, evocative stone figures now inhabit museums, cultural sites, art galleries, and private collections. starting in 1985, generic representations of man and woman emerged from Vaadia’s earlier abstract, monumental effigies. though generalized in form, there is some individuality in each figure, the artist’s intention being to represent the essence of a specific person. “I love people. each person is unique, as is the work of an artist. It is important that we, as artists, identify our own uniqueness, just as every individual needs to identify his/her own individuality.” this individuality resides in centeredness, not in superficial attributes. It is that which unites us as human beings. Vaadia hand carves slices of slate and bluestone, shaping them to be layers in a kind of topographical map. He stacks the horizontal slabs until the graded silhouette of a person, animal or group emerges. He views the geological layering of the stone as a natural model for his own sculptural process. It seems a logical metaphor for our human layering of experienceand memory.

Founded in 2001, Madison Gallery is committed to representing emerging, mid-career and established international artists whom work in a range of media. Inspired by an earnest dedication and passion for art, the gallery consistently exhibits a high standard of contemporary art. Madison Gallery works closely in building private, corporate and public collections thus placing it amongst the leading contemporary galleries in California.

Natalia Wrobel is a

Polish-American painter originally from La Jolla. Her work examines the dualities necessary for an authentic life and the endurance and adaptability of the spirit. Deeply inspired by poetry and the gravity underlying simple, everyday moments, her paintings explore the liminal realm beyond our physical world, and the interconnectedness of people, nature, history and spirit. For Wróbel, setting foot into the Athenaeum as a young girl felt “like I’d found something, and kind of like I was home.” The little girl was inspired to become an artist, and now in her latest gallery show, she continues to find new homes of a sort — “portals into imagined worlds,” as she describes them. “I have always loved making art,”

she says. “My first memory is tracing my body with a marker on construction paper as a 3-year-old in preschool.” Growing up, she would build “worlds out of painted cardboard in my bedroom” or miniature landscapes of moss, pinecones and sticks while visiting her grandparents in Poland. Her mother signed her up for an adult oil painting course at the Athenaeum when she was 8 — one of her happiest memories. “The Athenaeum is like a treasure chest in my mind — rustic brick patios, iron gates, palms trees and birds of paradise.” That class, she says, solidified her passion for painting. Once she graduated from The Bishop’s School in 2007, she moved cross-country at age 17 to study art and art history at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire. The faculty there, she says, “opened my mind to what a life dedicated to artmaking could mean. Our courses combined study of philosophy, psychology, art and color theory, and creative writing.” She also took courses in neuroscience, geography, design thinking, and religion, which continue to inform her studio work today. Her current work focuses on imagined worlds, “suspended in time.” Wróbel explains her concept this way: “Painting for me is a moving meditation, a way to enter into kairos, or the ‘time in between.’ Through purposeful intention and focused attention in the studio, time warps into an incredible fullness. It blossoms into this alternate space I articulate as a liminal realm; neither above nor below our physical reality, but rather, within it.”

She says her paintings are inspired by what the mind experiences during meditation, prayer, and “relaxed attentiveness,” drawing from images of neural networks and cell structures, and by the idea of “whole brain connectivity,” when information flows freely. The colors are inspired by nature, and informed by color theory to elevate the viewer’s experience. Wróbel hopes her work serves as a portal for each viewer to enter into their own meditative “time in between.” “The greatest part about being an artist, aside from being required to paint, which happens to be my favorite thing to do, is the connections art inspires. Sharing my work with people and hearing that it touches their lives in a positive, meaningful way has been the most fulfilling part of my career.”

Meet artist Natalia Wrobel on August 22 from 6-9 pm. Wine and tray passed hors d’oeuvres will be provided.

winning games,” he said. In past games, the Vikings would be up by 10 points or more, but lose steam. During a game in last year’s playoffs, La Jolla was up 24-17 at halftime, but lost it in the end. “If it’s third down and nine (yards), they need to push through and get the play and not give up,” Carter added. As has been the case since Carter took the helm in 2013, the team will undergo extensive strength and conditioning training to build endurance so they can push through to finish games on top. Playing to the strengths of a younger and comparatively undersized team, senior quarterback Casey Brown said the offensive players have “speed, heart and a love for the game.” Added senior wide receiver and kicker Trenton Fudge, “We have a new energy because all these young guys love to play. They are really fired up and enthusiastic.” On defense, senior running back and free safety Jonathan Levenson said, typically, a team relies on its biggest players to physically block their opponents, but this year’s varsity will instead use defensive plays that are more strategic and “cause mayhem.” He added that a lot of the players are skilled in their positions and each

The team is comprised predominantly of juniors, with a handful of seniors and sophomores. The self-proclaimed “band of brothers” held a season kick-off barbecue Aug. 15 at Muirlands Middle School, where they scrimmaged to show families and supporters what to expect this season. Head coach Jason Carter said the varsity Vikings will focus on staying strong from start to finish, playing to their strengths and trusting each other. “It’s going to be an interesting season,” coach Carter said. “We lost a lot of seniors (last year), so we’re replacing them with juniors and sophomores, so we’re young and we’re scrappy.” The strategy this year is focusing on the finish. “Last season, we had one of the best teams to come through La Jolla, but we didn’t always (play with consistent energy to) finish games. We would get to the fourth quarter strong, oftentimes ahead, but wouldn’t finish with a win. This season we are focusing on finishing strong and

Parents and supporters turn out for a preview of what to expect this season. Viking is an asset to the team. The evident camaraderie was part of a deliberate effort to build a family dynamic. For the first time this year, the team went to a training camp in Big Bear to learn each other’s strengths. “It was a great bonding experience,” Fudge said. “We learned we could trust each other more and became better friends, which I think is going to help us this season. We know that we can count on each other to have our backs. We know they will do their job, so we can do ours.” Senior outside linebacker Jesus Manzano agreed, “We’re a real band of brothers and we’ll fight for each other. There will be times in the season when we will be down so that

camaraderie will give us a reason to fight and that will help us be successful.” Due to ongoing construction at La Jolla High School’s athletic field, the Vikings will not have a “home field,” but often play at Mission Bay High School or La Jolla Country Day School. Although the opening game is 7 p.m. Friday, Aug. 28 at host La Jolla Country Day School, the game most players are looking forward to is the crosstown rival game against The Bishop’s School Knights. That match will be 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 4 at Mission Bay High School. u n Find the football schedule at sandi.net/ Page/75466 or sandi.net/ljhs

From Spectrum Act, A13 Block said he would seek to drum up additional opposition to the bill among Senate colleagues, though he predicted it would ultimately pass the Senate. Since the bill was amended in the Senate, if approved there it would have to return to the Assembly for a vote on concurrence, where State Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins (D-San Diego) could block the legislation, he said. “Our advantage is that (Atkins) represents La Jolla,” Block said. “The speaker can see that this bill doesn’t get heard on concurrence in the Assembly, if she wants to — and that would kill it. They might get mad at her if she does it, but there is that power.” Speaker Atkins’ representative Toni Duran, who was in attendance, later confirmed that, though it is “a little rare” for her to do so, Atkins abstained from voting on the bill in the Assembly. An inquiry as to why Atkins chose to abstain from the vote was not returned by press time. “Atkins doesn’t like to use her power to kill bills,” Duran cautioned. Given the lobbying largesse of the wireless industry, Block said La Jolla faces an uphill battle fighting AB 57. “Most of my colleagues get a lot more pressure from AT&T than they get from their constituents,” he said. “On the side of the telecommunications industry there has been a tremendous amount of lobbying … and hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations given, not tied to a vote on this act. “I don’t think any of my colleagues would vote just because of donations, but there’s been a lot done on the side of the telecommunications industry,” Block stressed. “What’s been done on the side of

the opponents is nothing. So it’s time for the opponents to get up, get vocal and get active — and you can’t do that from La Jolla. It’s time to either organize and come to Sacramento or to hire a lobbyist or a lobbying firm that is active and well-respected in Sacramento. … It’s not a fair fight right now, and we can make it more fair if the community really takes an active role.” Block said he is not opposed to the telecommunications industry per se. “We all have our cell phones and we want to get good cell service,” he said. “I am against taking away the rights of the people — the residents — to decide where these towers are placed.” Robert “Tripp” May, a telecommunications attorney who co-authored an amicus brief in Montgomery County, Maryland’s lawsuit against the FCC ruling implementing the Spectrum Act, offered a “crash course” on the federal law, which was inserted into the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012. “The basic crux of the statute is that state and local government may not deny and shall approve any co-location or modification request on an existing wireless tower or base station, so long as it doesn’t substantially change the physical dimensions. … If you’re in downtown LA (the term) ‘substantial’ could be very different than if you’re here in the Village,” he said, noting that in Los Angeles, towers are going in at heights of up to 50 feet; in New York, some are as high as 60 feet, LJTC trustee Cindy Greatrex added. May noted that though the city is working retroactively to amend its Land Development Code to accommodate the Spectrum Act, the law has already been in

La Jolla resident Lou Cumming opposes the Spectrum Act during LJCPA’s Aug. 6 meeting. ‘There is a circuit box that has a fan that runs 24/7 which is audible at some distance from the cell tower (installed by my home),’ he said. effect for months. “There’s no stay. There’s not automatic sort of relief period while we figure out whether this is or isn’t legal, so cities have got to comply with it,” he said. Under the FCC’s Spectrum Act order, a city has 60 days to either approve or deny a wireless facility application. If they do not, the application is automatically approved. “The problem for some of the cities is that their traditional processes take much longer than 60 days to process an application,” May said.

A separate issue LJCPA second-vice president Joe LaCava said a 49-foot SCADA pole recently installed by SDG&E at Exchange Place and Bluebird Lane for its own wireless technology is a separate issue, not related to the Spectrum Act. “As I understand it, that is still being fought and the city’s Development Services Department … and city attorney’s office have not ruled on that yet.”

In the end, LJTC member Brandon Hess made a motion to forward a letter opposing the Spectrum Act to city officials, similar to one drafted on-the-spot by the LJCPA during its Aug. 6 meeting. LaCava suggested the letter ask the city to pursue “a collaborative conversation with (wireless) carriers and the tower companies to not pierce the height limit in any neighborhood.” As chair of a committee established to advise utility companies on the placement of above-ground utility boxes throughout the city, LaCava said he saw a willingness to cooperate with residents’ wishes. “The city has no authority to regulate (utility boxes in the public right-of-way), but we got them to the table and we got them to agree to do a much better job (of locating) above-ground boxes — no laws, no policies, no regulations, but a cooperative agreement to uphold certain standards. I suspect that we can get the carriers and the tower companies to agree to something like that if we have a reasonable and collaborative conversation.” During the city’s poorly attended Aug. 12 scoping meeting on the Spectrum Act draft environmental document, city telecommunications project manager Karen Lynch said that, since the Spectrum Act went into effect April 8, “we’ve only had 14 (Spectrum Act) applications — four of which have been approved and all of them placed on existing facilities. This may put your fears at rest, slightly.” The city’s Spectrum Act amendments will still go before the city’s Smart Growth & Land Use Committee, Planning Commission and City Council for a vote, at which time there will be additional opportunity for public input, it was noted. u

Connie Unger raises $31,000 for library via donated books

By Ashley Mackin ver the last 11 years, former La Jollan Connie Unger raised more than $31,000 for La Jolla’s Riford Library. Tack on the funds matched by the City of San Diego, and that total jumps to more than $62,000. Her efforts on behalf of the Friends of La Jolla Library and its used bookstore will be sorely missed. Unger, who moved to Carmel Valley, has decided not to continue appraising

O

and selling books for the library, so she can spend more time with her grandchildren and volunteer with other organizations. Friends assistant treasurer Jim Stewart has taken the reigns, but with this message: “We are so indebted to Connie for her years of service,” he said. “We could never fully express our gratitude to have such a longterm and faithful volunteer of that caliber.” Unger explained her fundraising success See Connie Unger, B7

Miller (Class of 2015) begins his freshman year at the University of Notre Dame this week, friends and family will have something tasty to remember the school’s star defensive end by — his own Subway sandwich. The Village’s Subway shop has instituted a new tradition, partnering with La Jolla High School to create an annual Football Player of the Year award. Each year, the recipient will get to create their own namesake Subway sandwich. Grant’s culinary creation, dubbed the “G Meal Griller” (in honor of his nickname “G Mill”), is a toasted sub with turkey, pepperoni, ham, roast beef, spinach, tomatoes, green peppers, onions and Grant’s special vinaigrette dressing. “I tried several different creations before ultimately deciding on this one,” said Grant, who graduated with a 4.34 grade-point-average and lettered in football, basketball and volleyball, and was also on the LJHS surf team. “It’s surprisingly delicious.” The G Meal Griller is available for purchase at the Subway shop at 7514 Girard Avenue

Let Inga Tell You

The cheapness Olympics

A

La Jolla Cultural Partners

t a happy hour recently, we were having a contest about the cheapest person each of us had ever known. I actually entered three candidates. None of them won but they all got honorable mentions. Fortunately, we’ve been surrounded by truly generous people for all of our lives which makes the pikers that much more memorable. My first entry was a couple whom my former husband had known in college. He hadn’t had any contact with them in the 15 years since graduation when he got a call from them saying they were coming out to San Diego for two weeks and hoped to see us while they were here. My thenhusband enthusiastically agreed. A few days later another call: a mix-up about their accommodations had occurred. Might they, and their toddler daughter, stay with us for the first two nights since their airline tickets were already purchased? OK, we said, but be forewarned that our house is not baby proofed. We had no kids of our own at the time. They duly arrived but daily complications with their other accommodations kept arising. Vague excuses despite our specific queries as to where this housing was. Should be just one

more night, they said. After a week, we started to get really suspicious. They managed to be at our house every night for dinner noting that it was greatly preferable for a young child to eat at home rather than a restaurant. It became clear that short of changing the locks (we thought of it), we were not getting rid of them. On their last evening, they arrived at dinner time bearing a gift “to thank us for our hospitality” (i.e. sponging off us for two weeks). It was a cheap $10 cardboardbacked poster which they leaned up against the beautiful Tiffany hurricane lamp on our dining room table that promptly fell over and broke. Oops! No offer to replace it. Let’s stay in touch, they said when they left. We never heard from them again. My second candidate was a woman I knew casually in college on the East Coast who I ran into at a local alumni event. Our husbands seemed to hit it off so we ended up socializing with them. Both the woman and her husband had had their educations funded by the income from their trust funds and were each heirs to fortunes that would be familiar to you. But they liked to play “struggling young 20-somethings,” and while we fed them nice meals at our place, dinner at theirs generally consisted

of bread pudding (no meat) as the main course with a salad, and for dessert, “frozen yogurt” – one container of Dannon per couple put into the freezer and served with two spoons. You could see how these peoples’ ancestors had gotten rich. This couples’ favorite entertaining gambit was to invite their friends for a “bring your favorite wine and your favorite cheese” party – and then proceeded to put guests’ names on them to shame you into bringing a genuinely good wine and a genuinely pricey cheese. (It was alleged to engender conversation about one’s selections.) Suffice to say, they were able to stock their wine cabinet for months with the unopened bottles. For my 30th birthday, they showed up at our house with cake and a “gift basket” (minus the basket). The gifts were two avocados from their tree and a book from a local library sale still marked 25-cents, all wrapped in newspaper, along with the bottle of wine we’d brought to the wine and cheese party. The supermarket cake was tagged “Clearance” to reflect its imminent sell-by date and read “Feliz Cumpleaños.” My last candidate was a fellow mom with whom I’d had the misfortune to carpool for a sports practice. She frequently bailed on her carpool days, leaving messages on my home answering machine (she had my work number) that she was unable to drive that day because her husband wanted her to meet him for drinks at their club. (Only in La Jolla.) So it probably wasn’t too surprising when she showed up to the end-of-theseason potluck team party at my house minus anything resembling a pot but

carrying a large Costco can of beans. She wanted to make her chili at my house, she said, so it would be “fresh.” (I think chili does better after it’s been in the fridge for a day.) She then proceeded to appropriate my stockpot and ransack my spice cabinet for all the spices she’d need, making a giant mess in my kitchen in the process. Nobody ate it (since other people had brought actual food) so she graciously announced she was leaving it for my family, since of course, she couldn’t actually take it with her without stealing my pot as well. As I said, all honorable mentions. You don’t even want to know the story that won. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light. Reach her at inga47@san.rr.com

www.lajollalight.com From Connie Unger, B1 formula: she took books donated to the Friends of La Jolla Library and sold the most valuable titles on eBay and through auction houses. “La Jolla is an affluent community so the library gets amazing donations of books, and people care for their books, so I knew there would be a really valuable nugget every once in a while that we would make more money from if we sold it online,” she said. Some of the shockers have been editions of books by Dr. Seuss and Julia Child that sold for $224 and a whopping $450 respectively, and a signed copy of “The Kite Runner” by Khaled Hosseini that sold for $117. Stewart said especially unique or valuable books — less than 10 percent of everything that gets donated to the Friends of La Jolla Library — were handed over to Unger for exploration. She would then research their condition, determine whether a book was a first or early edition, had an unusual cover or was signed. Anything worth more than $30, Unger listed on eBay, often with a “buy it now” price. The exceptionally valuable texts, she would send to an auction house in San Francisco to sell. Those books could go for about $500 apiece. 2014 NINE-TEN Chef of the Year Ad.pdf 1 07/22/2014 4:59:50 PM

LA JOLLA LIGHT - august 20, 2015 - Page B7

Former La Jolla Library branch manager Catherine Green told La Jolla Light that with Unger’s projects, they never had to “worry about missing out” on something valuable. “She’s fun, works really hard and willing to do anything to help,” Green said. “Plus she’s smart about this business, so when we handed something off to her, we were confident in her ability and knew we didn’t have to give it a second thought.” Unger has some professional experience selling items online. Decades ago, she started a business called Web Auction Service, where she would sell items on eBay and make a commission from the sales. For several years, she lived around the corner from the La Jolla Library, and approached the bookstore volunteers 11 years ago to see if she could lend her services. She said she has a longtime passion for libraries, joking, “if I could do it all again, I would be a librarian,” and that she was involved in getting the Scripps Ranch branch library built. “Libraries are very important, even in this digital age,” she said. “The library system makes books accessible to the whole San Diego community and it’s all free. Libraries equalize the playing field because it doesn’t matter if you are from a high-income or low-income family, you have the same access to books and technology.

“It’s been my pleasure to do this service for the library,” she continued, “it’s been fun and rewarding and exciting at times. Some real odd books have come through, such as a collection of poems from a poet I’d never heard of (that fetched a lot of money). It was just weird sometimes.” She said eclectic collections often come to the library when people pass away and their heirs donate boxes full of books. “They either don’t know or don’t care that the books are valuable,” she said. La Jolla Librarian Shaun Briley said the proceeds from the sale of such contributions “really go a long way” and are used for “putting on events for kids, science workshops, buying the newest and best books for the library, and keeping our equipment up to date.” Briley explained that about 20 percent of all funds donated to or generated by the Friends group stay within the group for them to invest how they see fit. The remainder goes to the downtown library to be matched by the city dollar-fordollar. Of that matched total, a portion goes to underserved libraries, but the majority stays at the La Jolla Library. u n To donate books to the Friends of La Jolla Library, call (858) 522-1657 or drop by 7555 Draper Ave.

Food tips for summer travel

’T

is the season for road trips with the family or globetrotting to exotic lands to explore, rejuvenate and sightsee. But even the most relaxing vacation can take its toll, zapping energy, tinkering with sleep patterns and disrupting the gut with different drinking water and diets. Here are some trip tips to give you a feeling of well-being during the journey and upon your return. n One for the Road: Whether travelling by car, train or bus, bring along an arsenal of health-protective portable snacks to boost stamina, alertness and immunity. Potassium-rich bananas, refreshing Vitamin C stores like easy-topeel mandarin oranges, blueberries or papaya slices, protein-packed granola bars and trail mixes, iron rife raisins, along with high fiber antioxidant dried apricots, dates and figs will keep you regular while on the road, ward off colds and flu, and maintain fluid balance and energy levels. Don’t forget a good supply of quality water (in rubber-sheathed glass bottles) until you can replenish. This should sustain you through the first leg of the trip. n I’m Sneezing on a Jet Plane:

Airplanes are giant hermetically sealed Petri dishes in the sky, recirculating contaminated air for hours. Before the sojourn, jack up your immune system with probiotic warriors both sweet (yogurts and kefirs), and savory (sauerkraut and kimchi) to keep the gut and intestinal tract filled with friendly flora to fend off harmful bacteria. Other immune boosters include oats, barley, mushrooms (particularly shiitake, maitake and reishi), Vitamin C-packed leafy greens, guavas, kiwis, broccoli, berries, citrus and tomatoes, green and black teas, and, of course, raw garlic. For the plane ride pack along some potent portables (orange slices, shredded kale or spinach leaves, red pepper strips, purple grapes, peaches and nectarines) and keep well hydrated. (Booze doesn’t count). n Zoned Out: When travelling across time zones, your internal clock goes cuckoo, including circadian sleep patterns, along with eating habits. Harvard researchers have suggested adjusting meal times to keep in sync with time zone changes to put the skids on jet lag. Soporific foods will especially help reset body clocks by giving travelers some solid

n Method: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large sauté pan lightly toast oats, almonds, and flax seeds over low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly careful not to burn. Set aside to cool. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together water, honey, cinnamon, salt, and combine with oatmeal mixture. Add blueberries and fold mixture with spatula, or clean oiled hands to evenly incorporate ingredients. Place 1/2 cup of zzz’s. Hit the hay with hummus, a Mediterranean chickpea dip containing a load of tryptophan, an amino acid your body uses to make melatonin, the sleepregulating hormone. Calming carbs contribute to serious shut-eye like jasmine rice, mashed potatoes, oatmeal and pretzels. A bedtime banana is a perfect package with muscle-relaxing magnesium, mellowing melatonin and serotonin. The best liquid lullaby is a cup of chamomile tea to provide a restful night by boosting the body’s glycine, a natural sedative to relax tense nerves and muscles so you’ll be

What would be your dream vacation? Growing up in La Jolla, where half the world comes to vacation, made me realize that one should aspire to choose a place to live where a vacation lifestyle is possible everyday. I have no problem working hard, but a balance is needed in life where you can play as hard as you work. What are your favorite comfort foods? Mexican food, of course. Los Dos Taco Shop knows how to make some good California burritos. Acai bowls and smoothies are also pretty delicious. What is your most-prized possession? I shaped and glassed my first surfboard last year with the help of Bird Rock Surf Shop and a lifeguard by the name of “Boot.” It’s a 6’11” single fin. It’s definitely not perfect, but riding a board that was shaped by my own two hands and seeing it work is quite a feeling. What do you do for fun? Surf, surf and surf. Anything active such as snowboarding, hiking, camping trips, unexpected adventures, etc. I went skydiving for the first time last week and loved it! What music do you like best? I listen to an extremely wide array of music, but the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Sublime always find a place at the top of my playlist. What is your motto or philosophy of life? “Work hard. Play hard.” and “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take,” from Wayne Gretzky. u

Prado patrons party at park’s centennial celebration

T

he Patrons of the Prado presented their “Masterpiece” gala July 18 at Spreckels Organ Pavilion in Balboa Park to raise funds for the 11 museums, arts and cultural institutions along the park’s prado. The event was also a celebration of Balboa Park’s 100-year anniversary of the Panama-California Exposition, for which it was created. The festivities began with a cocktail reception, followed by dinner, dessert, and a through-the-decades multi-media entertainment experience produced for the event by San Diego’s NRG band. The evening continued with dancing under the moonlight and a live auction. u
