21-story UC San Diego development receives negative reaction from LJSA By Dave Schwab | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS Some La Jollans are balking at a UC San Diego proposal to build five new multi-story buildings on a parking lot adjacent to La Jolla Playhouse, insisting that letting the university “creep” into surrounding neighborhoods will cause traffic congestion imperiling public safety. Dubbed the Future College Living and Learning Neighborhood, the project is designed to provide residential life and administrative space for a new undergraduate college, with approximately 2,000 undergraduate beds, classrooms, an estimated 1,200 underground parking spaces and a conference and retail space.
The new development, consisting of three nine- to 11-story buildings located along the campus edge, and two taller 16- and 21-story buildings located in the interior of the site to the east, would have a conference on top of one of the buildings and a public market at ground level. Plans for the new multifaceted center were unveiled at an open house hosted by UC San Diego Jan. 22. Janie Emerson, president of the La Jolla Shores Association community advisory group, said the sheer scale of the project, as well as its timing, has taken the community by surprise. “The university believes it has gone above and beyond in commu-
nication with the community, but that didn’t happen,” charged Emerson. “The community is in shock and feels betrayed.” Pointing out UC San Diego is “mandated to teach students at a high level,” Emerson nonetheless claims that “isn’t a mandate to provide dormitory and living space for all of your students. The Shores Association disagrees they have to quarter all their students on campus.” Emerson argued the trolley extension under construction, with two stops planned on UC San Diego campus, obviates the need for such a large amount of student campus housing.

Candidates squared off before a packed house at a Feb. 17 mayoral forum at La Jolla Community Center two weeks before the March 3 primary election. The six candidates — Gita Applebaum Singh, Barbara Bry, Todd Gloria, Scott Sherman, Tasha Williamson and Rich Riel — answered queries on everything from homelessness and affordable housing to short-term vacation rentals. Only the two top vote-getters, regardless of party, will go on to the November runoff, where San Diegans will select a new mayor to replace termed-out incumbent Kevin Faulconer. The public event, sponsored by La Jolla Town Council, was moderated by Town Council President Ann Kerr Bache. The ensuing debate turned testy at times. City Council President Pro Tem Barbara Bry, from District 1 (which includes La Jolla), went on the offensive against two of her competitors, Democrat Assemblyman Todd Gloria and Republican City Council colleague Scott Sherman. Bry attacked them for allegedly accepting special-interest money to fuel their campaigns. “This is not a debate, this is a candidate’s forum,” cautioned Kerr Bache, who asked candidates prepared questions. The first question sought candidates’ views on what to SEE CANDIDATES PG. 2

La Jolla women’s golf legend Mickey Wright dead at 85 Golf lost another legend with the recent death of 13-time major champion, Mickey Wright. Born Feb. 14, 1935, in San Diego, Wright began to hit balls with her father, Arthur, a 15 handicapper and San Diego attorney, at age 4. At age 11, she received her first lesson at La Jolla Country Club. Within a year, she had broken 100. Wright died after suffering a heart attack in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she had been hospitalized the last few weeks. In her book, “Play Golf the Wright Way,” Wright tried to explain the fascination that golf had for her. “Something happened to me when I swung a golf club,” she said. “I felt free and graceful like somebody. I still do. Golf to me is not only a way of life, it’s a creative outlet, a constant, never ending challenge; frustrating but never dull; infuriating, but satisfying.” Her strong, graceful swing would guide Wright to 13 major championships and 82 victories total (second most all-time), with many coming while carrying the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour on her shoulders. She won the U.S. Women’s Open and the LPGA Championship four times each. She won the Vare

rophy five times, was the leadT ing money winner four times, and twice had winning streaks of four straight tournaments. Wright retired from full-time competition in 1969, at the age of 34. Citing an adverse reaction to sunlight, an aversion to flying and foot problems, Wright settled for a quiet life in Port St. Lucie, Florida.

News Over 600 pounds of trash picked up in Village By Dave Schwab | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS Enhance La Jolla’s district manager told La Jolla Village Merchants Association in February that the new Maintenance Assessment District has completely cleaned the Village, while addressing most deferred maintenance issues there. “We have completed one iteration of sidewalk power-washing, increasing the frequency of the process hopefully to every other month for six a year,” Enhance La Jolla District Manager John Unbewust told merchants. “We have picked up a significant amount of trash since we began Oct. 1 of last year.” Unbewust said the weekly trash “haul” totaling about 600 pounds includes a substantial amount of trimmed palm fronds. “That is supplemental to what the city does,” said LJVMA Executive Director Jodi Rudick.
Unbewust said sponsors are now being sought to provide doggie stations around town to help people pick up after their pets. He added the MAD is also looking into taking on repair and refurbishment of community benches located throughout town. Also being considered by the new MAD are privately funded capital improvement projects, that Unbewust said will focus on streetscape. “We’re meeting with a number of local architects on March 5 to focus on improvements to landscape, fencing and lighting,” he said. “We want to provide street side planter boxes uniformly, making them look cleaner.” Unbewust said the ultimate goal is to make the Village of La Jolla “not only cleaner but more walkable, safer and pedestrian-friendly. We want to make a big impact in improving the look and feel of the Village.”
ACCOMPLISHMENTS SINCE OCT. 1, 2019: • Completed deferred maintenance for tree and bush trimming, sidewalk washing, and litter/trash collection. • Trimmed all trees up to 10 feet. • Removed all damaged planters. • Cleaned tree wells. • Removed damaged benches. • Painted 15 trash receptacles. Twenty-one more are scheduled. • Worked with city to remove unsafe tree limbs (two locations). • Worked with city to address water leaks (three locations). • Weekly clean of pedestrian ramps and dog droppings. • Weekly removal of 600 pounds of trash and palm fronds. • Regularly clean sidewalks around benches and trash receptacles. • Weekly water hanging planters.
La Jolla wrongful death suit trial set for April 10 A motion was recently approved by a judge adding new claims to an April 2018 wrongful death lawsuit in the case of Mikaela Jones, 22, who was fatally struck by an armored truck driver on April 17, 2018, in the parking lot of La Jolla Village Square shopping center. It was Jones’ birthday and she was crossing the street in La Jolla Village Square when her dog got away from her, according to San Diego Police. The lawsuit against Garda CL West and its truck driver employee Kevin Barber, alleges the company knew Barber was unfit and inexpe-

do about the growing homelessness problem. “Homelessness could be any one of us,” said Applebaum Singh, a nurse practitioner. “It is someone who is one paycheck away from being on the street. I propose creating a team to go out and address the root cause of homelessness.” “We need to focus on the root causes of homelessness, which
rienced to drive armored trucks, yet continued to employ him up to the day Jones was fatally struck. The shopping center was also named as a defendant. “The case is currently on track to go to trial on April 10 in downtown San Diego,” said the plaintiff ’s attorney Robert S. Glassman, of the law firm of Panish Shea & Boyle. “While much of the evidence has already been uncovered, there are still some witnesses we need to speak with whose testimony will shed light on just how and why a tragic event like this could happen.”
The complaint also alleges Barber sped up, rather than slowed down, when he came around a curve in the parking lot and struck Jones. Added Glassman, “Based on what we know so far, though, we have recently included allegations against Garda for negligently entrusting the armored truck to the driver who we believe should have never been operating this type of vehicle in the first place. Mikaela’s parents are still grieving and will never get over the unimaginable loss of their beloved daughter who brought so much joy and light to their lives.”
include mental health and substance-abuse issues,” Bry said. “If we don’t address those … just giving someone a place to live will not be a long-term solution.” Candidate Riel, who has been employed with the San Diego City Housing Commission said, “Homeless should be in mental health facilities, not jail. That’s a mistake. They need special treatment for addiction.” Gloria, 78th District Assembly member representing La Jolla said, “We need to break with the status quo. Ending
chronic homelessness starts with leadership from the mayor’s office making it the top priority in the city. We need to spend money on what actually works.” “We’ve been doing some things at the city that have been working — homeless shelters, permanent supportive housing,” said Sherman. “We also need to focus more on the enforcement side. Crimes committed by people who are homeless are still crimes and need to be enforced.” “Look around the room, see who’s not here,” answered Williamson, a community activist working with families who’ve lost members to police violence. “People of color are disproportionately impacted.” Regarding short-term vacation rentals (STVRs), a hot-button issue especially along the coast, candidates were asked if they would enforce existing municipal codes forbidding rentals in single-family neighborhoods. “I would enforce the law,” said Gloria. “If you don’t like the law — change it.” “I’ve advocated regulating STVRs to allow primary homes and one other,” said Sherman. “I don’t want strangers in our neighborhoods,” answered Applebaum Singh. “We need to bring people to the table,” said Williamson. “The city is failing to do that.”

Of the proposed 12,000-squarefoot academic conference center at the top of an 11-story building that has retail at the ground floor and student housing in-between, university spokesperson Leslie Sepuka said, “This space would accommodate university meetings and academic and community events with a top deck patio space with ocean views. It’s an example of how this project is planned as a mixed-use community that incorporates residential, academic, cultural and retail space.” Emerson claims the university expansion project hasn’t been properly thought out and has been planned without the community’s participation or knowledge. “A total of 1,200 parking spaces won’t even accommodate the (proposed) market plaza,” she said. “Forget the existing problems in the area with traffic light synchronization. The traffic generated by this project is just the tip of an iceberg. With all the traffic feeding into this area, it’s going to be overloaded.” Sepuka said the university has done a comprehensive traffic impact

analysis, which includes traffic mitigation, for the expansion project. “The analysis assesses the traffic congestion impacts of the development expected looking at existing conditions, future year 2025 conditions and future year 2035 conditions,” said Sepuka. “The university is already taking the results of the
traffic study into account, installing adaptive traffic signal infrastructure as a proactive traffic mitigation program. “The majority of students living in Future College Living and Learning Neighborhood will not have a car on campus and will not be contributing to local traffic,” continued Sepuka.

“Further, pedestrian and bike-friendly pathways will be included in the neighborhood along with other open-space improvements. These elements are designed to enhance and encourage the movement of people and bikes through the campus core rather than on the surrounding streets.”
Emerson contends the expansion project will make it harder for emergency vehicles, including lifeguards, to access UC San Diego, posing a threat to public safety. “Safety is the university’s top concern,” replied Sepuka. “The University of California has strict safety standards and regulations. The new buildings and parking structure are designed with occupancy in mind, to maximize safety and ease evacuation.” Added Sepuka, “The UC Police Department and our fire marshal work closely with partner agencies responsible for public safety, including the city. As just one example, UC San Diego has provided the city with the land and the funding necessary to build a fire station on campus.” Emerson offered a solution to what she sees as an impasse currently between La Jolla and UC San Diego on this proposed multi-building, multi-story project. “Bring these plans to the table, roll them out, and let’s look at the whole campus and see how we can make this work for everybody.” For more information about the Future College Living and Learning Neighborhood, visit campaign.ucsd. edu.
Muirlands Middle School hosts STEAM Career Day By Dave Schwab | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS
Muirlands Middle School’s annual Science Technology Engineering Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) Career Day drew presenters from myriad walks of life to clue students in on the ins and outs of their professions on Feb. 6. The lineup of presenters at the La Jolla middle school included a surgeon, several professors, a cellist, a cake decorator, a public health researcher, a print journalist, a registered nurse, clinical and forensic psychologists, an author and an artist, among others. Muirlands STEAM Career Day chairs were Anna De Angelis and Jackie Fisk. Presenters met in the middle school’s auditorium to get a group picture taken before moving on to address questions from students in
three different classes. "Our sixth annual STEAM day was a tremendous success,” said Muirlands Principal Geof Martin. “I heard so many of our students talk about the experience of having our presenters share the passion for the work they do. I believe experiences like these can shape the path our students take as they think about their future. I also hear from presenters about being back in a school, talking with students. I hope we can continue to have an annual STEAM day, the effort planning pays off for all in our community.” Two student's reactions to their presenters were both positive. “As a student here at Muirlands, I love learning about the many jobs I, along with others in my class, could have,” said seventh-grader Emma Weibel. “This year, my favorite presenter was Kathy Cooperman.

speech incorporated her life as both a lawyer and writer, and she explained things like what she had to do to be a lawyer and how she was able to publish her first book. Her presentation was not only interesting but inspired me to read her book. I kept thinking about the presentation all day.” “It is an educational experience in which one gets the chance to learn about possible careers and what they entail,” noted eighth-grader Nathan Rifkin. “I enjoyed Elizabeth Villa’s presentation of biochemistry and how various mutations can lead to Parkinson’s disease.” Presenters enjoyed themselves, too. "During STEAM day, I presented to sixth and seventh graders about the daily life of a professor at UCSD and about our research,” said professor Galia Debelouchina in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. “We work in the field of nuclear magnetic
resonance, which in many ways is very similar to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a diagnostic tool used in hospitals. … I tried to show aspects of my job that are probably less known to the general public. For example, students were very surprised to find out that we use graphic design programs on a regular basis to make cartoons explaining our research, or even cover art for scientific journals. … Overall, STEAM day was an inspirational and enriching experience for me too. … I was reminded that not that long ago, I was just like them, curious and excited to learn about the world. I hope my presentations inspired some of them to think about the job of a scientist in a different way and to explore career paths they never saw themselves exploring before.” "I offered the kids a choice via show-of-hands: should I talk about being a lawyer or being a writer?”
said Kathy Cooperman, who is both. “The kids surprised me by being more interested in law. I gave a brief spiel on what I'd done, then opened the room up to questions.” Added Cooperman, “The kids were fiercely practical, asking about money, work/life balance and, of course, war stories. I tried to be honest, warning them that working for big, civil firms means big salaries, but terrible hours. Criminal is way more fun, but less lucrative. The kids' questions about writing novels were also pragmatic: how to get an agent, how to get a publisher, how to make up stories, plotting, etc. I told them there is no magic secret to writing — it's hard work that can be done a gazillion ways. The kids perked up when I reminded them that writing is not just about novels. Most of pop culture is ‘written’ by someone — films, TV shows, plays, video games and (to an extent) reality shows are all written by somebody."
Education 5 Seniors leave a Model UN legacy at La Jolla Country Day School FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 2020 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS
By Victoria Davis | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS Before 2015, La Jolla Country Day School — a private K-12 school — never had a Model UN (MUN) club that lasted more than a year or two. But when Niki Nair and Matthew Wirtz decided to create a five-year plan in eighth grade for their own Model UN program, it was the beginning of a MUN legacy at Country Day. “I don’t know many middle schoolers with a five-year plan,” said Jonathan Shulman, Country Day’s
upper school history educator and the director for the school’s Center for Excellence in Citizenship. “On top of that, to do it as a group with like-minded, mature students who are onboard to see this through, that’s beyond compare. They’re leaving a legacy to the students who come after them.” Now a Country Day senior, Nair is a first-generation American in her family, her parents and older sister all born in India before moving to the states. Despite long discussions about global politics at the dinner
table, Nair realized her classmates were not as privy to world events and that even her own understanding was fairly surface level. Her desire to be more educated and informed about issues like border disputes happening right in San Diego’s backyard, is one of the many reasons Nair decided to help create a MUN club at her school. “It’s easy to stay ignorant and close your eyes and ears and be unaware of what was happening to people in the world when it doesn’t affect your own bubble,”

LJHS students competing for Students of the Year By Dave Schwab | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS La Jolla High School students on two squads are competing with 16 other candidate teams for Students of the Year, an innovative seven-week fundraising competition wherein candidates appeal to family and friends to raise critical funds for blood-cancer research. LJHS’s Team Race to the Rescue is comprised of Blythe Broido and Alexa Thompson. The Dream Team is headed by Nora Wilcox. The fundraising competition is sponsored by The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) San Diego/ Hawaii Chapter. Students of the Year is a philanthropic leadership development program for exemplary high school students. During the campaign, participants foster professional skills such as entrepreneurship, marketing, and project management in order to raise funds for LLS. Top local fundraisers become eligible to win the national title. The students raise money in honor of a local patient hero who is currently battling or is in remission from a blood cancer. There are more than 1.3 million blood cancer patients in the U.S. The candidates/teams who raise the most money at the end of the competition earn the title Student(s) of the Year. “I found the experience to be entirely rewarding,” said Broido
of Team Race to the Rescue. “This competition has become something that I am passionate about and dedicated to. … I have developed a number of skills and gained confidence. … Helping team members learn to fundraise is difficult but rewarding when they reach their goals.” Teammate Thompson noted, “It’s super fun to work with your classmates to raise funds, but also it is amazing to see how much a community can come together to support your cause. … I would like to participate in it again because it is such a fun campaign and it is for such a good cause.” Both young women have had personal experience with blood cancer. “One of the Race to the Rescue team members was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at the young age of 3. By age 6, he was thankfully able to make a full recovery,” said Broido. “Some of my family friends have been in the fight against blood cancers, so it hits home for me,” said Thompson. Of their Students of the Year experience Broido said, “The generosity of my contacts has shocked me. The number of people who gave to the campaign on my behalf has astounded me and made me feel the power in community.” Said Thompson, “Participating in the competition makes me feel happy, because I know that with
our team’s help, we are one step closer to finding the cure for blood cancers.” “It’s amazing to watch these young men and women work so hard to fundraise and help us cure cancer,” said Kathlene Seymour, LLS’s San Diego/Hawaii Chapter executive director. “Students of the Year resonates with Generation Z, who want to leave their mark in the world. As the world’s largest nonprofit dedicated to fighting blood cancers, LLS has a legacy of innovating in the fundraising category and Students of the Year is our newest addition. The one-of-a-kind program brings together students from diverse backgrounds and experiences who are compassionate and driven to reach their own personal fundraising best.” The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is the world’s largest voluntary health agency dedicated to blood cancer. The LLS mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world, provides free information and support services, and is the voice for all blood cancer patients seeking access to quality, affordable, coordinated care.

said Nair. “I saw Model UN as my ticket to get better educated about the world and better educate my classmates.” Nair and Wirtz’s MUN plan had two final objectives with their MUN club: to be invited to The Hague International Model United Nations Conference (THIMUN) and host their own MUN conference at Country Day. In the last five years, Country Day’s Model UN club has grown to include nearly 50 students including senior Lauren Ziment. The three seniors have led their club members in local San Diego MUN conference competitions at UCSD, state MUN conferences at UC Berkley, and international MUN conferences at Yale and the International School of Panama in Panama City. This year, the club’s extensive portfolio got them noticed by THIMUN, and the Country Day students were invited to attend the Netherlands conference. “This was by far the most internationally diverse conference we’ve been to,” said Ziment of THIMUN, a five-day MUN competition which hosted more than 3,200 students from 200 schools located across 100 different countries. “It was quite the unique experience. It was very emotional at times too, because this is what we’ve been working toward for years.”
Modeled after real debates in the UN, THIMUN assigns students to certain committees to represent a chosen country. In structured debates, the students present, wrestle with, and vote on different resolutions in subjects ranging from sporting venues and environmentally-friendly professional sporting equipment to women’s rights in Afghanistan and interreligious conflicts. “In the states, MUN can typically take a very Americanized approach to these problems, but when you go to an international conference, you get a different perspective,” said Nair. “You can hear the sincerity in the debates with these other kids from other countries. These issues are impacting their lives every day and it makes these resolutions we’re proposing a lot more real and enriched.” “With the exception of Antarctica, there were students from every continent around the world there, and North Americans were the minority,” added Shulman, who chaperoned the students during the conference. “Over the five days of these students working together, they start to see profound differences in the way they see the world. When you add on top of that they’re all playing the roles of countries they’re not from, it adds another level.” Read more at sdnews.com.

Update your home décor quickly dramatically with window treatments Most homeowners are looking for ways to upgrade their home décor quickly and dramatically. One of the most overlooked pieces of home décor are the window treatments, which can alter your interior design more than you may realize. Take a look at these tips to see how you can update your home without compromising your style.
A Stylish Upgrade
Drapery is an easy way for any homeowner to layer onto existing window treatments bringing
new life to an old look. It can also stand on its own and adds visual warmth and texture to any room. Drapery brings a variety of visual aspects to the space.
Energy Efficiency
Homeowners are always on the lookout for ways to save money, and the monthly gas/electric bill can be a sore spot. Start saving with window treatments that keep your home well insulated. Drapery is great at controlling the amount of light that enters a room. During the summer, light
entering a home will heat the interior and cause the energy costs to rise. Closing drapes during the day can reduce those costs because drapery acts as an additional layer of insulation. Drapery also acts as a barrier from the outside temperature during the cold winter months. No matter the season, drapery is the perfect way to help keep you comfortable inside, regardless of what the weather is doing outside.

With light filtering options you can determine the level of light entering or leaving your windows, Privacy allowing you to be able to Sometimes, privacy can see out without unwanted be an afterthought until eyes peering in.

New body-sculpting treatment offered by La Jolla plastic surgeon By Adam Behar | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS You want to get ripped without putting in the hours in the gym? Now you can, says plastic surgeon Dr. Reza Sadrian, whose La Jolla office has recently begun offering truSculpt Flex. “We have people who are already in excellent physical shape who may just want to tone up in certain areas,” says Dr. Sadrian. “We have older patients, and we have people who need to be rehabilitated; they can do this while lying on their back and stimulate the muscles without overdoing it.” A non-invasive muscle-sculpting device, truSculpt has been approved by the FDA for the strengthening, firming and toning of abdominal, buttocks and thigh muscles. It can improve muscle tone by inducing muscle contractions using electric current, says Dr. Sadrian, and the treatment can be customized based on the patient’s fitness level, shape, and goals. Dr. Sadrian notes that truSculpt Flex is the only device of its kind that targets eight muscle groups at the same time. His patients are comfortable and pain-free during treatments, he says, and “it is completely safe because it doesn’t allow muscles to get overworked and damaged.” One 45-minute session is equal to about 25,000 crunches, says Dr. Sadrian, and “patients usually begin to see results in a few weeks.” Since it was launched in July, “we have

treated over two dozen patients and by the third treatment, patients are noticing results.” Dr. Sadrian, who received training at Johns Hopkins and Baylor College of Medicine, possesses dual certifications in both plastic and reconstructive surgery as well as oral and maxillofacial surgery. He says this training gives him a unique perspective when dealing with facial cosmetic surgery. Celebrities like Khloe Kardashian and Kris Jenner have reportedly been using similar products to help stay in shape. According to Glamour magazine, body-sculpting treatments work either by destroying or freezing fat cells. The theory is that the areas of the body that are treated are less likely to accumulate as many fat cells in the future.
The truSculpt Flex is made by Cutera, which has manufactured cosmetic lasers for the past 20 years. Company representative Kevin Boyd describes the product as “a total body contouring solution” that saves both time and sweat. “You can do your workout, jump on this machine for 20-30 minutes and replace a second workout,” he says. While the product is being marketed to people of average physical strength, he says Olympic-level athletes are also benefiting from using it. The first step for new patients is a complimentary consultation with Dr. Sadrian or a registered nurse to evaluate if they are suitable candidates for the twice-a-week treatments.
Acuity Eye Group recently announced the addition of La Jolla Laser Vision & Eye Center run by Dr. Daniel Coden, Dr. Arthur Perry, and Dr. Steven Pratt to its growing number of providers and clinics. Drs. Perry, Pratt, and Coden have served patients in the La Jolla and San Diego community for over 40 years and will continue to provide comprehensive ophthalmology services at their practice post-acquisition.

Debra's grandfather established their family's first Jewelry store 100 years ago in Endicott, New York. “I developed a passion for gemology watching my Father and Uncles’ enthusiasm for gems” said Debra. In 1986 Debra moved to California to attend the Gemological Institute of America (G.I.A) , at the time in Los Angeles, where she obtained her Graduate Gemologist diploma G.G.. Upon her graduation she was selected to work at the G.I.A. as a diamond grader in their lab providing Diamond Reports! Debra’s desire to work more closely with people led her to transfer to the education division where she continued her career as a Diamond Grading Educator. In 1990 she moved to San Diego where she became a partner in a diamond wholesale Company. Missing the personal connection with her clients she opened a small jewelry store near UTC and then moved to Mission Valley in 1998. She chose to open a store in Bird Rock with her son David because it has the intimate feeling of a small community, and is reminiscent of her hometown. Stop by and say hello!

Brain fatigue: Making your unconscious conscious for better decision-making Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. Several years ago, I wrote a column on decision-making and how it is influenced by brain fatigue. As I am working today with people trying to decide whether to move to a retirement community, I have become aware of how much the number of decisions to be made can become overwhelming: Should we move? Why, when, where, and especially what to do with all our stuff? The result is “I am not ready to make a decision,” which, in fact, is a decision to stay put. We are not always aware of the nonstop choices which encumber our brains during our daily activities. For instance, we start the day with: Jump out of bed or snooze a while longer? Shower now or later?
UC News By Jemma Samala | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS University City Little League will hold their opening day festivities on Saturday, Feb. 29, starting at 9 a.m. UCLL expects a very exciting season as they have signed up the most players in the T-ball and MAPS division in more than a decade. Opening day will take a note from some other fun UC events like the 4th of July and Oktoberfest by making the event open for the whole community, not just the players. Plans include a rock wall, jumpers, fastest pitch in the West, a band playing baseball tunes and, best of all, a brand-new slushie machine for the snack bar. Food will be served all day including carne asada tacos, nachos and other yummy treats. The goal is to make opening day another staple in the community where people of all ages, with or without kids, can come enjoy the event, which has been a part of the UC community for decades. Opening day will be at the baseball fields next to Swanson Pool, 3585 Governor Drive. Bring the entire family, some chairs and enjoy a game or two. Watching the T-ball games will definitely bring a smile to your face. Info at ucll.org.
Regular or decaf ? Whole eggs or whites only? Then we continue throughout the day with: buy now or wait for a sale, paper or plastic, wash or dry-clean, chocolates or flowers, book or magazine, strength training or cardio, keep driving or ask for directions, cash or credit, speak up or keep quiet, go out or stay home? The list can go on ad infinitum. We are bombarded with constant decision-making, and our brains get tired. This explains why ordinarily sensible people buy junk food, splurge on unnecessary items, or procrastinate. Our brains begin to look for short cuts either by acting impulsively, not thinking through consequences, or by saving energy by doing nothing — avoiding making any decision — which could also lead to unintended consequences. Becoming aware that our brains are beginning to function by default, we can postpone whatever decision we were about to make. If your need is to decide now, give your brain some glucose and you’re good for another hour or so.
Decision-making uses energy. The more energy we use to avoid temptation (such as ordering dessert), the less energy we will have to avoid other temptations, so we may end up eating half that box of chocolates. Researchers followed newly engaged couples registering for wedding gifts — after deciding on flatware, glasses, towels, and sheets — the exhausted couples just pick whatever is displayed, stop making choices, and agree with whatever the salesperson suggests. The more options, the quicker brain fatigue sets in and we choose the default option, which is to stop making decisions. We can override the brain’s tendency to go on default by making our unconscious conscious. We can make our important decisions early in the day or just after eating. When I am sorting through papers deciding what to keep and what to throw out, I have become aware that I am better able to get rid of my old documents in the morning than
in the afternoon when I tend to hold on to them. Also, taking a break to pursue a different activity can reset our brains for a while longer. In an experiment involving the timing of paroles given or refused, 1,100 decisions were analyzed over the course of a year. Prisoners who appeared in front of the judges early in the morning received parole 70% of the time, while those who appeared late in the day were paroled less than 10% of the time. The fatigued judges chose the default option: keep the prisoner in jail. What experimenters tried to do next was to see whether the brain can be made to function even when fatigued. Since the brain lives on glucose (sugar), increasing glucose could reverse the brain’s propensity to stop deciding and give it a burst of energy. The prisoners who normally would have that 10% chance of getting paroled by appearing in the afternoon were taken in front of judges who had just eaten and got approved 60% of the time. Knowing this, judges should find the opportunity to snack before

Local youth continues to entertain the community with their latest show “Matilda.” The international Tony Award-winning smash musical hit was inspired by Roald Dahl. “Matilda” tells the story of a girl who learns to believe in herself,
their brains turn off. Even the wisest of people won’t make good choices when their glucose is low. This explains the dieter’s problem with willpower. We start off by not eating the doughnut for breakfast, but by dinner we have no willpower left to refuse the tempting dessert. The Catch-22 is that in order not to eat, the dieter needs willpower, but in order to have willpower, the dieter needs to eat. The brain needs a sugary pickme-up, a piece of fruit or a cookie, not a diet beverage. So, don’t make decisions late in the day nor on an empty stomach. The best decision-makers are the ones who know when not to trust themselves. So now we have a good excuse for that piece of chocolate mid-afternoon.

Green is the new red at 2020 Academy Awards Fashion Files Diana Cavagnaro The 92nd Academy Awards were on Sunday, Feb. 9, 2020, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. There were distinct trends in fashion for the evening. Many celebrities chose to wear black and white. Penelope Cruz wore a striking black Chanel dress with pearls around the waist and a white flower on the chest. Another fashion direction was oneshoulder gowns. Best Actress Renee Zellweger wore a one-shoulder Armani Prive gown. Charlize Theron looked elegant in a black Dior Haute Couture with a $5 million necklace by Tiffany and Co. Salma Hayek Pinault also wore a custom one-shoulder Gucci gown. Cynthia Erivo wore a show-stopping gown custom made by Versace with platform heels. Rooney Mara wore a black Alexander McQueen gown with lace cutouts and a skirt with ruffles. Best Supporting Actress-winner Laura Dern looked amazing in a pink Armani Prive dress with black sequins and beaded tassels. Caitriona Balfe was in a black and pink Valentino. Red was another predominate color for the Oscars this year. Jane Fonda, who presented the award for the Best Picture to Bong Joon-Ho’s “Parasite,” wore the most memorable red gown. She was wearing a recycled red dress by designer Ellie Saab that she had worn to the 2014
Cannes Film Festival. She accentuated the outfit with Pomatello jewelry, which uses only responsible, ethically harvested gold and sustainable diamonds. The red carpet looked more like a green carpet this year. The Red Carpet Green Dress initiative asked celebrities to wear sustainable designs. Saoirse Ronan wore a black and lavender Gucci dress. The black part was repurposed material from her BAFTAs gown. Elizabeth Banks repurposed a red Badgley Mischka gown as a way to bring awareness to sustainability in fashion. Kaitlyn Dever wore a custom red Louis Vuitton gown that was ethically sourced with sustainable materials. Lea Seydoux wore a custom black-andwhite Louis Vuitton gown that was made from Tencel Luxe material and organic silk faille. Joaquin Phoenix, who won for Best Actor, said that he would wear the same tuxedo by Stella McCartney all season to promote sustainable fashion. Some stars chose to wear vintage as a way to help the environment, such as Lily Aldridge in archival Ralph Lauren. Natalie Portman is another celebrity who made a political statement by wearing a stunning Dior gown with a cape. She had the names of female directors who weren’t nominated embroidered in her Dior cape. She wanted to point out the lack of female nominees. Billy Porter wore a Cupola gown with a feathered top and an orange printed skirt designed by Giles Deacon Couture. After a visit to Kensington Palace, the gown was based
on the Cupola Room. The skirt is printed on silk and inspired by the walls of the Cupola Room. He is definitely one to watch for the wildest red carpet looks. Spike Lee wore a custom purple Gucci suit which paid tribute to Kobe Bryant. It had gold trim on it and patches of Bryant’s jersey number, 24, stitched on the lapels and on the back. Other standout designs were a custom Oscar de la Renta gown of pewter-toned silk worn by Scarlett Johansson. Florence Pugh wore a teal-colored tiered gown with matching colored shoes by Louis Vuitton. Janelle Monae sparkled in a Ralph Lauren crystal-encrusted, hooded gown finished with a Forevermark’s Lace of Light diamond choker.

On Feb. 28, two of San Diego’s musical leading lights, trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos and pianist Irving Flores, kick off the 2020 Fourth Friday Jazz Concert Series at the La Jolla Community Center. The evening’s performance will be focused on Latin jazz standards, but whatever these two gentlemen play will surely be impressive. Both have made an impact on San Diego’s music community, mentoring
a multitude of musicians, but Castellanos in particular has become a lynchpin of the area’s arts scene, establishing the Young Lions Conservatory and helping young players hone their craft. If you are a fan of classic, Blue Note-styled jazz, this concert is an exciting start to this beloved music series. Gilbert Castellanos & Irving Flores: Friday, Feb. 28, at the La Jolla Community Center, 6811 La Jolla Blvd. 8 p.m. $25. All ages. ljcommunitycenter.org

SUDOKU PUZZLE
Coach Jerry Fleischhacker (far left) runs a recent practice of his LJCDS ED PIPER / VILLAGE NEWS boys soccer team.
The Torreys manager, who just coached his 700th game, with a record of 363 wins, 213 losses, and 124 ties at the time of this writing, says the escape from Communist oppression made him “grateful” to live in the U.S. Another formative experience was quadruple bypass surgery three years ago for a “100% occlusion of the main artery they call the ‘widowmaker.’ My wife and I did a lot of travel after that, to Greece, Israel, and Japan.” You sense the deepened gratitude and appreciation. Fleischhacker, whose last name translates as “meat cutter,” has a lighter side, as well. He has joked that his nickname should be “Tie-hacker,” as associate athletic director Robert Grasso mentions, for the 100-plus draws in his LJCDS career. Israel DeAnda, a former player (goalie, 1993-95), shares, “[Coach Fly] saw potential in me that I did not see in myself at the time. He
patiently encouraged me over several years to develop it, and actively helped me do so.” DeAnda developed into the league player of the year under Fleischhacker’s tutelage. Athletic Director Jeff Hutzler and other colleagues at LJCDS note the 29-year veteran has never missed any of the 700 games during his Country Day tenure. The Torreys won CIF titles in 1994-95 and 200203, and 15 times they have reached the CIF semifinals. Interestingly, Fleischhacker was a world-class table tennis player, competing from age 10 to 30. He coached his sons, Benjamin (Class of 2007) and Alex (Class of 2010), the latter a Second Team AllCIF honoree as a center midfielder. All-leaguer Joe Carson (1991-95) went on to become a professor of astronomy at the College of the Charleston, working on the Hubble Telescope.

When Jerry Fleischhacker was in the ninth grade, growing up in Communist Czechslovakia during the Cold War, he popped off in school about how bad the economic system was. He got into big trouble with the authorities. “My parents decided to get me out of there,” recounts the 69-year-old, with a sheepish grin. “We went on a ‘vacation’ to Austria, and never came back.” “Coach Fly,” as he is affectionately called by his soccer players at La Jolla Country Day School, where he has coached and taught the last 29 years, recalls an incident as the family of three was defecting. “A guy in the train station joked, ‘Oh, you have some pretty big suitcases. Are you going to defect?’ My dad almost died.” That ability to see things as they are and speak it out loud, which led Fleischhacker to criticize the system at a tender age, has morphed into a quieter style that fits the AP U.S. History teacher’s role molding his students in the classroom. As former player Marc Salomon (defender/midfielder, 1997-2000) says, “He was mostly soft-spoken, even though he loved a good long chat.” Still, according to Tim Sedwitz, another alumnus (center midfielder, 2003-07), “Coach Fly never shied away from offering his opinion, even if it was the dissenting opinion.” Fleischhacker proudly notes that Salomon went on to play for the Boca Juniors reserves in Argentina.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE
Young wrestlers star for Vikings By Ed Piper | LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS “Caden [Kestler] feels really comfortable being on top [in a wrestling match],” said head coach Kellen Delaney of La Jolla. “He really wants to work on getting out on bottom.” Delaney, speaking during the annual Holtville Tournament, was discussing what the 113-pound wrestler was currently practicing: “In the neutral position, he wants to work on a different shot than the double-leg maneuver he already knows.” Kestler, a freshman, is one of a stable of capable young wrestlers for the Vikings who complement senior Joshua Jasso, the two-time Eastern League champ at 197 pounds, and juniors Keegan Leonard (138) and Chase Maisel (152). Leonard won three straight bouts at Holtville after an opening loss to reach consolation round five. Last year, he placed sixth in the CIF Division 4 finals at 134 pounds. The other young wrestlers for La Jolla, gaining strength as a team this season with a dominant 58-20 win at Cathedral Catholic in a dual meet, include sophomores Zeke
Pearl (134) and Buzzy Bomberger (128). Newcomers are freshmen Ben Kasendorf (160), Steve Naitoh (heavyweight), and Brendan Glenister (220). Pearl, who declared to no one in particular at the start of the twoday Holtville tourney, “I’m going to have 10 matches today and I’m going to win all of them!”, “is fantastically athletic and very competitive,” said Ryan Lindenblatt, former head coach from 2010-2015 and now an assistant coach. “He’s very aggressive with his takedowns.” Kasendorf and Naitoh — the one big, the other bigger — provided some comic relief during the team picnic at the Holtville tourney provided by coach emeritus Walter Fairley. “He ate all beans,” said Big Steve, the heavyweight, of Kasendorf ’s self-serve burritos at their host family’s house the night before. “Yuck. I don’t like the way the burrito came out.” Kasendorf: “I’m Jewish, so my family usually tries to eat only kosher meat. That’s why I ate all beans.” “He ate six bur ritos,” the good-natured Ben fired back at his enormous teammate, wearing
glasses off the mat, as team members hung out around picnic tables on the quad of the Imperial Valley campus. “No, I ate four burritos,” smiled Naitoh. “They were small.” “Plus, he ate four hamburgers,” Kasendorf, not giving up, continued. They, then, broke a short time later to try football punting right next to the tables with new assistant coach Tirso “Junior” Lara. Pearl was throwing the ball up too high in the air before he punted, so that he couldn’t properly put foot to ball. “Here, I’ll show you,” interjected a reporter. “That kick didn’t go high enough,” retorted Pearl. Bomberger subsequently placed fourth in the City Conference Championships, a great finish especially for a sophomore. Jasso took second in the event, hosted by La Jolla High. “Buzzy is that perfect combination every coach looks for: talent and hard work,” said Lindenblatt. Delaney assessed his team at this point of development: “Joshua is a returning league champion at 197. Keegan and Chase are strong as juniors. Buzzy and Zeke are proficient and growing in their respective approaches.”

Take a leap – Try something new or just relax with an extra day You may live an additional 24 hours this Saturday, Feb. 29 due to the leap year, but will you live it up? What you would do if you only had one more day left? Here are just a few suggestions for things to do, in and around San Diego, on your extra 24 hours, whether that be trying out something new, or taking a day trip elsewhere within a short drive. • Hike Bike Kayak Adventure Tours. Owned by native La Jollans Michael and Sharon Luscomb, HBK is exactly what their name implies, an adventure, and a local history lesson, on La Jolla coastal geography and ocean wildlife. “Our tours run 90 minutes to two hours,” said Michael Luscomb noting he and his wife have run their family-owned and operated La Jolla Shores business for 25 years. “Our tours start at 9 a.m. and run every hour on the hour.” Tour guides, who are lifeguard certified, are well versed in La Jolla’s wildlife, and place a heavy emphasis on educating guests about the ecology and conservation of native species they’ll encounter on their guided tours of the La Jolla Ecological Reserve. The reserve is home to California Sea Lions, Harbor Seals, Garibaldi fish, Brandt’s Cormorant, Brown Pelicans, Leopard Sharks, and dolphins, among others. La Jolla Kayak also rents an array of beach equipment including sun umbrellas, masks, snorkels, wetsuits
Explore one of the seven sea caves in La Jolla.
and boogie boards. “We explore the seven caves of La Jolla and discuss the history of La Jolla,” said Luscomb. “Our kayaks are extremely user-friendly and are very stable.” Call 858-551-9510 for more information. • Ride a glider at the Torrey Pines Gliderport. The instructors at the Gliderport have prepared a top-notch curriculum that will teach you everything you need to be a safe and competent pilot. If you just want a ride, anyone of any age can fly with a pilot. Guests can fly with North America’s most experienced tandem pilots. The instructors are certified, professional, and available seven days per week. Visit flytorrey.com for more information. • Go parahawking. La Jolla’s coastal cliffs are one of your best
bets for paragliding and for those who want to jump off the bluffs and soar high above the Pacific. However, parahawking is a whole new ball of wax as you do the same but alongside a falcon. The unique experience is offered at the Torrey Pines Glideport by Fly With a Bird, “where a trained raptor freely leads the way alongside a tandem glider, whenever both the weather and bird agree the time is right.” • Get adventurous with some shark diving. San Diego’s Pacific Ocean is known for its splendid marine life that can be seen year-round. However, why not be a little more adventurous and go shark diving? San Diego tour companies offer cageless shark diving off La Jolla Cove’s waters where amateurs, as well as experienced divers, can wit-

San Diego is considered the home of the longest zipline in California, which is awesome for thrill-seekers of all ages. Set in the La Jolla Indian Campground within the foothills of Palomar Mountain, the La Jolla Zip Zoom provides riders with 6,273 feet of zipline fun along with breathtaking views of mountain peaks, lush canyons and steep slopes. • Hiking just might be Southern Californians’ official pass time. There are dozens of options – from the Potato Chip Rock in Poway to Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve to Tecolote Canyon Trail right outside PB to Annie’s Slot Canyon near Solana Beach. Of course, one of the most popular hikes is Cowles Mountain in Mission
WHAT IS LEAP YEAR? Leap year only comes every four years – the last in 2016 – and the next not until 2024. The reason we have leap year, according to several online websites such as WorldTimeServer.com, is that “the calendar is designed to concur with the Earth’s revolutions around the sun. For example, it takes the planet about 365.242189 days – 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 45 seconds – to circle one time around the sun. Therefore, we have 365 days in the calendar.”
Trails Regional Park – the highest point of the City of San Diego. • Try kitesurfing. If you would like to feel the sensation of flight, water walking abilities and a superhero complex, take kitesurfing lesson from Jeff Raney, who is based out of Fiesta Island. Kitesurfing takes desire, commitment and time flying the kites. The more time you spend flying the kites, the better your kite control will be in the water and progress with your board skills. On average, about 8-10 hours of lessons needed before you can safely get on your own. About the first four hours are all land lessons so you will most likely not be touching the water on the first day. Call 760840-0028 to set up some lessons. • Yoga by the ocean. Come practice yoga by the Pacific Ocean in a free, donation-based class held every Saturday and Sunday from 10 to 11:30 a.m. at the end of Law Street in PB. This is a challenging, all-levels class that will leave you feeling completely alive and invigorated, led by local instructor Steve Hubbard (aka Namasteve). Hubbard started out in yoga years ago to improve his volleyball game. “Very soon, I discovered that it provided way more than a better jump serves,” he said. “The overall feelings of physical vitality, emotional equanimity, and mental clarity were asRead more at sdnews.com.
The full rotation is called a tropical year, also known as a solar year, astronomical year, or an equinoctial year. However, those extra hours, minutes, and seconds – the ones that are part of the decimal at the end of the tropical year – add up over time. If we didn’t include a leap day every four years, we would lose nearly six hours each year. This would “add up to a total of 24 days in a span of 100 years.” Over time, the calendar wouldn’t match up and things would certainly be off, thus we have leap year.
