La Jolla has most car prowls in the city

BY CLAIRE HARLIN | VILLAGE NEWS It usually happens in less than a minute: Crook approaches vehicle.

Crook shatters window, often with the porcelain from an everyday sparkplug. Crook quietly makes off with valuables in broad daylight.

This event is known in police-speak as a car prowl and recent police statistics show the La Jolla area has more

instances of this crime than any other neighborhood in San Diego. A report of all crimes by neighborhood between January and July shows that the police beat stretching from Turquoise Street to Torrey Pines State Park west of Interstate 5 had 268 instances of car prowling.

Close behind La Jolla was University City, with 261 instances of car prowling, followed by Pacif-

ic Beach with 246.

“The main reason it happens is because people use their vehicles as storage lockers,” said Alan Alvarez, a public information officer for the San Diego Police Department’s Northern Division. “Whatever is there is whatever they’re going to take.”

Alvarez said it is common for people

UCSD’s 50-year journey to architectural awe hen Stanley Chodorow came to teach history at the University of California, San Diego in 1968, the campus area consisted of grass, bushes and fields of, well, nothing.

“It was just snakes and rabbits up there in UTC,” said the emeritus professor, who still teaches at the university. “When it rained, it was just a big mud field.”

UCSD celebrates its 50th birthday this year, and the institution has come a long way in terms of visual appearance. What began as a compact, bucolic research institution in 1960 has developed into a nearly 30,000-strong university with not only a repertoire of scientific achievements, but an adventurous architectural style that has gained the atten-

The Princeton Architectural Press recently released “University of California, San Diego: The Campus Guide,” a photography-driven book that details the evolution of UCSD’s look over the years.

“The book is a compendium of UCSD’s history, architecture and legacy,” said Boone Hellmann, UCSD’s head architect. “It’s a nice way to put everything into a box and tie a book around it. It’s like a photo album of the university’s life.”

UCSD is also kicking off “UCSD by Design,” a yearlong series of lectures and discussions, on Sept. 30.

Hellmann is, in large part, the man behind the bricks and mortar. He came to work at UCSD 25 years ago, when the campus was getting ready for its first SEE UCSD, Page 2

CONTINUED FROM Page 1 big push in construction since 1960.

For Hellmann, UCSD was somewhat of an open palette. He was charged with bringing a level of architectural quality that hadn’t previously existed uniformly, and he said he looked to “Jeffersonian ideals” for inspiration. Thomas Jefferson was not only the nation’s third president, but an architect who designed the University of Virginia.

“Just as students are educated through books and interaction, they are also educated by qualities in their physical environment that they will carry on with them after graduation,” Hellmann said. “They may end up on a planning commission in their hometown where they may have to consider things from their learning experience.”

For instance, Hellmann said, cam-

La Jolla’s high number of reported vehicle break-ins, in comparison to other neighborhoods, could be attributed to its sizable population or high number of visitors. However, La Jolla ranked much lower than other neighborhoods in other crime categories — 16th in aggravated assault and 46th in armed robbery, to name a couple.

pus gathering sites such as Library Walk, the engineering courtyard and the iconic Geisel Library serve purposeful functions and are conducive to both social and visual appeal.

The university’s design is also a reflection of the modern era in which it evolved — a time characterized by abstract art, moon landings and contemporary counterculture.

“It was also an era, for students, in which it became clear that low grades would end you up in the Army,” Chodorow said.

Of UCSD’s early days, Chodorow recalls a camaraderie between students and professors who were “rolling with the punches and taking a risk” in dedicating themselves to a new university. New professors quickly became involved in university administration and the founding of departments, and the invested interest has kept many at UCSD throughout the years.

As for students, UCSD officials

tried to appeal to those who were serious intellectually.

“When students applied to both San Diego and Santa Barbara, you could assume they just wanted to be on the beach,” Chodorow said. “So, we said Santa Barbara had the better beach — which isn’t true.”

The “UCSD by Design” project will bring together art historians, architects and community leaders in celebration of the university’s 50th birthday. Each event consists of a Thursday evening keynote lecture at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego and a moderated discussion among experts the following morning at UCSD. The Exhibition “Modern UCSD: Celebrating 50 years of Campus Architecture” will be on display until Dec. 3 in the UCSD Arts Library, located on the ground floor of the Geisel Library.

Lt. James Filley, who oversees the San Diego Police Department’s Northern Division, said education is extremely necessary to combat this crime because, unlike violent crimes, car prowling is highly preventable.

“It’s a crime of opportunity,” Filley said. “Most are random.”

He hasn’t noticed car prowls being perpetrated by an organized group, but that’s not to say people don’t go to particular neighborhoods to commit particular crimes, he said.

Car-prowl hot spots include Kellogg Park, the La Jolla Shores parking lot on Camino del Oro and neighborhoods sur roundi n g beaches. Filley said most

break-ins happen during the day.

Sometimes cars are left unlocked with valuables in plain view, Filley said, but more often beach-goers hide their keys in the sand or on top of their vehicle’s tire while a perpetrator watches. Rental cars are also susceptible to break-ins, he said, as they indicate travelers’ belongings might be inside.

The porcelain from a spark plug — or any other material that’s harder than glass — is often pressed into the corner of the window, shattering it with hardly any noise. Sometimes, he said, professional car prowlers will monitor parking lots before committing their crimes.

“There’s no prying stereos out of dashboards,” Filley said. “Those days are gone.”

Last summer in Pacific Beach, he said, a surfer buried his car key in the sand before hitting the waves. A thief dug up the key, stole the man’s credit card from his wallet, returned the wallet to the car and reburied the key.

When the thief attempted to use the credit card at a nearby CVS pharmacy, the CVS employee called the cops and the crook was apprehended.

“The victim didn’t even know he had lost his card,” Filley said. “We located his car by the beach about the time he was coming out of the ocean.”

Lorraine Schmalenberger, presi-

dent of the La Jolla Shores Surfing Association, said safety has become a much more prevalent issue in recent years than when she was growing up in La Jolla during the 1960s and 1970s. Now a Clairemont resident, she said she’s been privy to a few instances of surfboards being stolen from the back of pick-up trucks, but parking access remains more of an issue than car prowling. She said she always locks her vehicle and uses a special key pocket in her wetsuit.

“Around here, we know whose vehicle belongs to who,” Schmalenberger said. “If we see someone tampering with a vehicle, we have some safety in community.”

Coastwise Mile & 5K planned for Saturday

BY LAUREN VENTURA | VILLAGE NEWS Despite lagging registration profits, La Jolla’s third annual Coastwise Mile & 5K race will take place Saturday, Oct. 2 at The Ellen Browning Memorial Park.

The event has not been lucrative for the last two years, said Joclyn Sanders, director of business development for the Coastwise Group, but she also noted this is not an uncommon phenomenon in the race industry.

“Our race is very, very young and is still building traction — versus the La Jolla Half Marathon which has been around for some 20 years,” Sanders

said. “Additionally, we started the race the year the economy collapsed and business marketing budgets were cut.”

This made the first few years all the more difficult for Coastwise, Sanders said.

Sanders said this is why sponsorship is so important for the Coastwise Mile event, since it is expensive to obtain city permits, event directors and police enforcement to oversee the race.

This year’s race will include some varied options for runners, such as the Mutt Mile for dog-lovers, relay team options and the Baby Jogger Division for parents, tots and strollers. Coast-

wise aims to create a family-friendly exercise event for all ages and degrees of fitness with proceeds from the event going to The San Diego Humane Society and The Scripps Park Project — an organization that aspires to preserve and restore The Ellen Browning Memorial Park.

There will be several road closures that may affect residents and motorists. Jenner Street, Prospect Street, Cuvier Street and Coast Boulevard will be subject to full or partial closures from 7 to 11 a.m. For more information regarding the event, to donate or to register, visit www.coastwisemile.com.

Tuxedo shop proudly wears ‘Best of La Jolla’ designation

BY HILLARY SCHULER-JONES | VILLAGE NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY · APRIL 1, 2010

For the second year in a row, A Better Deal Designer Tuxedos and Suits, located at 369 Bird Rock Ave., has received a “Best of La Jolla” award in the Tuxedos and Suits category from the U.S. Commerce Association (USCA).

Each year, the USCA recognizes companies nationwide that “enhance the positive image of small business through service to their customers and community,” according to a press release.

Owners Jerry and Janet Klein have been in the tuxedo business for more than 30 years, and they have spent half that time at their present location. Jerry said that the duo’s personal attention to customers and control over their products sets their business apart from their competitors, which are primarily large chain stores.

“You don’t need to make a dozen calls to get ahold of someone at our store — I answer the phone,” Jerry said.

“We are here six and seven days a week to make sure the store is operated as it should be and that our customers are pleased with our product.”

Klein said that he has roughly 3,500 suits on site, and he makes sure that he and his employees have everything cus-

tomers need to make their tuxedo rental experience enjoyable and convenient.

“We are a small business — we have one location here that is family-owned and operated,” Jerry said. “We don’t order from out of town, we have tailoring available here … we are in control of our product, and that is unique. There is no possibility of our customers showing up [at an event] looking like yesterday’s newspaper.”

The Kleins take their status as a family business seriously, as they currently employ two of their grandchildren at the store. They are also actively involved with the community.

Jerry is a founder of the Nice Guys Organization and a past president of the Bird Rock Community Council, and he and his wife frequently donate tuxedos and suits to local organizations

for fundraisers and events.

“I came from humble beginnings in Chicago, where I was born and raised, and I believe that you get back what you give,” Jerry said. “It is a very normal thing that you should do in life as you become successful. Part of the joy of having that success is that you can help people.”

The USCA Web site states that the association conducts its own research and also relies on third-party information to choose companies for a “Best of Local Business” award; businesses do not apply for the program, and there is no voting process, which makes the award unique from other “bestof ” distinctions, Klein said.

NEWSbriefs Divers experience rare encounter Three divers captured rare footage of a mola mola, the heaviest-known bony fish in the world, off the coast of La Jolla on Sunday, Sept. 27.

“I’ve been diving for a while and I’ve never seen one this close to shore,” said diver Julie Lorenzen, education coordinator at the Maritime Museum of San Diego.

The sighting took place near the southern wall of the Marine Room Canyon, about 34 feet from the surface. The mola mola, also known as an ocean sunfish, has an average adult weight of more than 2,000 pounds, however the two seen Sunday were babies — about two feet long.

“Most molas are about 25 feet,” said Jim Kinane, who was with Lorenzen and diver Michael Bear when the sighting happened.

Kinane is an Internet technician specialist for the Southwest Fisheries Science Center in La Jolla.

Bear was able to catch video footage of the molas on a wristmounted, high-definition underwater camera. Bear’s footage c a n be viewed on his b l o g , www.raptureofthedeep.org.

NEWS 5 UCSD film students dive into production with Time Warner THURSDAY · SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

BY JENNA FRAISER | VILLAGE NEWS Cracking the film industry can be a challenge for young graduates, even those with talent and vision. Seven students within the University of California, San Diego’s (UCSD) Triton TV network will have a leg up after producing a prime-time weekly television series with Time Warner that is expected to debut on Channel 19 and throughout the 10-campus UC system in October.

La Jolla producer Pasquale Augustine, who works closely with Time Warner, approached students at Triton TV about a 52-episode, 30-minute series called “The Power Behind Closed Doors” that involve interview local industry leaders with national and global influence about research and technology, business, government and military affairs, and politics and current events.

Pasquale, a retired military leader, government advisor and international businessman, said he hopes the show will help expose La Jolla’s influential populace to the community at large.

“There are a tremendous number of people within La Jolla and at UCSD with prominent careers in all different areas,” he said. ‘This is a forum to

Waitt. The proceeds will help fund construction for an inpatient unit and additional surgery suite in the Hospital Infantil de las Californias. Located less than a mile south of the border in Tijuana, the hospital provides low- or no-cost healthcare for children living in both California and Mexico.

The hospital is the only one of its kind in the region, said event spokeswoman Peyton Robertson, providing about 35 medical services from more than 200 specialists — 75 percent of whom are volunteers. To date, Robertson said, the hospital has performed more than 300,000 patient visits and more than

shed light on some of their accomplishments and expertise, and a way to open doors for people to understand how these bigger issues impact the community.”

Jessica Elford, a Time Warner producer who started working with the company during her time as a graduate student at the University of San Diego (USD) 10 years ago, is collaborating with Triton TV on the project.

“We’re trying to create a bridge from the university that doesn’t really exist yet,” Elford said. “We want to get out important information about research and prog rams, in ad dition to helping expose these gifted, passionate students to the outside world.”

“It’s a lot of fun working with the students because they have so many new ideas, but not a lot of opportunities to get those ideas out,” Augustine said. “This project gives them the opportunity to be creative, learn something and make media contacts they wouldn’t otherwise have.”

The show’s format will feature interviews with industry experts and professionals by Augustine, Elford and Triton TV’s founder and station manager Thomas Dadourian at Porter’s Pub, a UCSD landmark.

“We’ll also do some on-location

packages that correlate with the interviews to make it as interesting and visually-appealing as possible,” Elford said, citing secret research laboratories and a flight over Montgomery Field Airport as examples.

The final third segment of each episode will include student input, Elford said.

“The show will really have an informal, conversational feel,” she said.

“We’re trying to get some information out to the community that isn’t currently talked about in the 24-hour news cycle.”

Dadourian, a fourth-year UCSD premed turned theater major, has been a Screen Actors Guild (SAG) member since age 10 and has worked as a production assistant (PA) in Hollywood and, most recently, for Lifetime Television.

“I’ve worked in the dirt in both fields,” he said. “I’ve been a scribe in the ER and a PA in Hollywood at 4 a.m. by skid row. I like the dirt in the film industry much better.”

As director and co-host for “The Power Behind Closed Doors,” Dadourian said he has started to gain contacts and experience that will be valuable in pursuing a career as a writer, director, producer or director of photography.

6,000 pediatric surgeries, the most common of which are orthopedic, ophthalmologic and clef palette procedures.

Wednesday’s event will include a sitdown dinner and silent auction in which attendees have a chance to win tickets to New York Fashion Week and a week’s stay at a private estate in Pebble Beach, Calif.

The fundraiser will be produced by Redfearn & Associates, an event production company that has turned out high profile La Jolla fundraisers such as a private Hall and Oats concert last year benefiting juvenile diabetes. The company has also produced two other fundraisers at Waitt’s estate, one this year featuring rock legend Pat Benatar and another last year featuring singersongwriter Jewel.

Steve Redfearn, head of Redfearn & Associates, said the Oct. 6 concert will be particularly special for him, as his son is both the stage manager and godson of Emmylou Harris. Redfearn said he helped promote one of Harris’ first concerts while in college at California State University, Long Beach and then he worked as a tour manager for the then-upcoming country star. He said he was on the road with Harris when his son was born.

Redfearn holds around 40 events a year, but he said “the moon and the stars aligned for this one.”

Tickets for the event can be purchased online at www.usfcc.org for $300 per person and sponsorships begin at $5,000. For more information, call the foundation at (619) 298-KIDS.

“This industry is all about networking,” he said. “I’m really excited to meet people and learn and perfect my craft, and give it a shot at making a full show.”

Elford said the talent and enthusiasm of the Triton TV team has continued to impress her and that she hopes the series will propel them into successful careers.

“There’s no need for our brilliant students to have to move to Los Ange-

les to get a job when we’re helping them acquire the resources they need right here to be certified producers, camera people or editors,” she said.

“This project really gives them the skills and connections with leaders of industry right here in La Jolla.”

OPINION

THURSDAY · SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

GUEST COMMENTARY

League of Women Voters endorses Clean Elections Initiative The San Diego Chapter of the League of Women Voters has announced its endorsement of the San Diego Clean Elections Initiative, chapter Co-president Ann Hoiberg said in a statement.

“Clean Elections would make a fundamental difference in San Diego politics,” Hoiberg said. “We need to get money out of San Diego politics and return political power to people and our neighborhoods.”

The San Diego Clean Elections Initiative is being sponsored

by Neighborhoods for Clean Elections, a grass roots coalition that is aiming to place the Clean Elections Initiative on the November 2012 ballot.

The initiative, which is also supported by Common Cause, will provide public funding for candidates for mayor and City Council who agree to a “Clean Elections Pledge.”

The pledge requires that they refrain from soliciting any campaign contributions from private sources and that they further agree to refrain from spending any of their own money for their campaign.

“Clean Elections is designed to break the conflict of interest between campaign contributors and candidates,” explained Michael McQuary, chair of Neighborhoods for Clean Elections.

“San Diego city government is broken,” McQuary said.

“Developers, lobbyists and special interests get almost everything they want because they grease the palms of the politicians with campaign cash. As a result, neighborhoods and ordinary citizens are often left out of the political process. And Clean Elections will help clean up San Diego City Hall.”

The San Diego Clean Elections Initiative is modeled after Clean Elections laws already on the books in several cities and states. Maine and Arizona have Clean Elections for state candidates. Portland and Albuquerque have implanted Clean Elections for local candidates.

Under the Clean Elections model, candidates who pledge to “run Clean” need to qualify for funding. The idea is to eliminate “crank” or marginal candidates in favor of those who can demonstrate community support.

In San Diego, a “Clean” candidate would be required to collect $5 from 500 voters in his or her district to qualify for funding; and those proceeds would go into the city’s Clean Elections fund.

Candidates would be funded based upon a formula linked to population which would currently provide approximately $90,000 in a primary and $135,000 in a general election.

These amounts are, on average, less than half of what successful council candidates have spent in recent elections.

Clean Elections is a voluntary system — candidates who do not wish to opt in may still choose to run under existing rules, collecting funds from private contributors and spending their own funds.

“With Clean Elections, candidates can spend their time knocking on doors and meeting the voters they wish to serve,” Hoiberg said. “They won’t spend all of their time catering to the donor class. We will get candidates who owe their election to their constituency, the voters, instead of their contributors.

What a welcome relief.”

School board should stay out of politics My family enrolled in the San Diego Unified School District from a private school at the beginning of the 2009 school year. After a full year of seeing how the school board is run, I must tell you I am appalled to see that the school board believes it should have its hand in local and national politics. My understanding is that a school board is to provide education to the district‘s children, not run a register-to-vote campaign or condemn another district’s laws.

On Sept. 17, I received two emails from the school district regarding voter registration. The first was a test, the second, exactly the same but was the non-test email. While I agree it is important for all citizens to register to vote and actually cast their ballots, I do not agree that it is the business of the school district.

In May, [published reports said] “the San Diego Unified School District’s Board of Education voted unanimously to condemn Arizona’s new immigration law and will not let employees travel or do business in Arizona until they repeal the new legislation.” Agree with the Arizona law or not, how does this proclamation help our students get out of program improvement schools?

Each of you must know the database of district families’ e-mail addresses is confidential, and should be used only for the business of disseminating district information, not political views or for purchase by outside entities. Board members, get

Dave Little La Jolla

Kudos to the La Jolla Planning Association The trustees of the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) rejected a request to grant a variance to the coastal zone 30-foot height limit at its September meeting. Not mentioned in the Village News article of Sept. 23 is the fact that the applicant already has a community and city approved plan for a library. Many of the trustees have close ties to the Bishop’s School, the applicant for the height variance.

Nonetheless, the trustees held firm and rejected the request to grant a variance to an ordinance created by a citywide referendum and tested all the way through the Supreme Court.

No known exception to this ordinance has ever been granted in 30 years in the entire coastal zone where it applies. It is the single ordinance that keeps our beaches from being walled off by a row of highrise buildings. With its integrity intact, the LJCPA can now go forward in its effort to get the city staff and Planning Commission to respect local planning decisions that are consistent with the La Jolla Planned District Ordinance and the La Jolla Community Plan.

Prop D promises will likely go unfulfilled

Chris Baker Anna Magulac Don Balch, Paul Hansen

CONTRIBUTORS Hillary Schuler-Jones, Charlene Baldridge, Judith Garfield, Anthony Gentile, Natasha Josefowitz, Sandy Lippe, Linda Marrone, Bart Mendoza, Neal Putnam, Sebastian Ruiz, Rob Stone, Meaghan Clark, Lee Cornell, Mariko Lamb

The supporters of Prop D (on the Nov. 2 ballot) say 10 reforms that will reduce the city deficit will be enacted before Prop D takes effect — if it is approved by the voters. We now have proof that the 10 reforms are meaningless.

The reform, which would allow outside companies to compete against city workers for government jobs, has been tentatively agreed upon by the city worker unions and Mayor Jerry Sanders. In order for a private bid to be accepted, it must be at least 10 percent less that the cost of doing the work with city workers.

Additionally, the cost of doing the work with city workers will not include pension costs. Those are the very costs which are heading the city toward bankruptcy.

Unbelievable that after four years of negotiation, the mayor has come up with an agreement which will outsource a grand total of zero jobs.

We started out with a plan to outsource city work if it was cheaper.

The plan now is to outsource if it is 10 percent cheaper than a city worker bid which will not include pension costs. Most unbelievable is that city officials expect us to believe this is progress toward reducing the city deficit.

Torrey Pines Elementary hits academic high The State of California recently released its results for academic performance and growth with Torrey Pines Elementary School’s (TPES) scores making it the No.1 elementary school in all of San Diego County. In addition, the school ranked 14th out of more than 5,000 schools in the state. The scoring is based on an annual Academic Performance Index (API), which charts school’s academic progress based upon demographics, standardized testing and other factors, said Linda Zintz, the San Diego Unified School District’s communications director.

TPES has exceeded base scoring once again and now, for 2010, it has raised its score by 15 percent. According to a recent statement by the school’s principal, Jim Solo, the school is

extremely pleased with the results and achievement, crediting the schools recent success to its teachers’ high curriculum standards.

“It’s the gold standard in terms of what state and federal officials want to see from a school,” Zintz said. “As for parents and families, the API results are an excellent way for them to measure how the school is doing and the level of learning that’s happening.”

Volunteers needed for La Jolla Shores Association The La Jolla Shores Association (LJSA) is seeking a talented volunteer to assist with the redesign of its website.

The goal of LJSA is to work with the local community to enhance and protect La Jolla Shores, preserve parks and beaches while also staying up-to-date and involved in permitting and transportation issues as they impact the local environment and businesses. LJSA would like its website to represent these core values and hopes to find a savvy Web designer and content management systems expert to convey these goals. For more information regarding this position, contact chairman Joe Dicks at (619) 685-6800.

The Preuss School wins prestigious award The Preuss School UCSD, a combined middle and high school, was recognized as a Blue Ribbon School by the Department of Education this month. The Blue Ribbon School award honors schools that help “close gaps in achievement,” which is a goal of Preuss as well.

“Preuss has been named a California Distinguished School for years and this national recognition from the Department of Education is an incredible honor,” said Preuss Principal Scott Barton.

“It’s a testament to the achievements of

Preuss’ teachers, students, staff and our support from the University of California, San Diego, the Unified School District and partners in the community.”

San Diego Unified School District schedules meeting On Thursday, Oct. 7, Mike Price, area superintendent for La Jolla schools, will be leading a town meeting at University City High School. Top issues to be discussed on the agenda will be how the community can address and improve student achievement, the budget cuts for 2011-12 — which total more than $141 million — and information regarding the Proposition J Emergency Parcel Tax. The meeting will be located at 6949 Genesee Ave. and begins at 6:30 p.m.

Office manager exits Town Council post A vital member of the La Jolla Town Council’s office left her post Sept. 25. Cindy Hoye worked as a part-time office manager for two years, serving as the go-to contact for La Jollans’ needs.

Darcy Ashley, a former Town Council president and volunteer, hired Hoye two years ago and said it will be hard to fill her spot because she was “so good at what she does.”

“Cindy would help people get connected with whoever they needed,” said Ashley. “She had a broad resource base and knowledge of the community.”

A few tears were shed in response to Hoye going away, according to a statement by Egon Kafta and Maureen Murphy of the La Jolla Village Lodge.

“At the busy, best of times over the last several years, we have observed conscientious Cindy Hoye virtually functioning as the unofficial mayor of La Jolla, running the little Town Council office across the street at the Crosby Center,” the statement said.

Songwriters’ sons come to La Jolla for premiere

BY CLAIRE HARLIN | VILLAGE NEWS Jeffrey and Gregory Sherman, sons of the notable songwriting brothers Robert and Richard Sherman, will be live in person for the San Diego premiere of their documentary “The Boys: The Sherman Brothers’ Story” at La Jolla’s David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre on Oct. 2.

The screening is a one-time special event put on by the people behind the Jewish Film Festival, which has its main event in February.

“When you have the ability to get the children of two of the most famous songwriters of all time who happen to be Jewish, then you have to take advantage of that,” said Dan Shapiro, director of marketing for the festival.

The Academy Award-winning Shermans are best known for their songs “It’s a Small World,” “A Spoonful of Sugar” and The Jungle Book’s “I Want To Be Like You.” Sons of Russian-Jewish immigrants, Robert and Richard Sherman began writing songs together in 1951 on a challenge from their father, “Tin Pan Alley” songwriter Al Sherman. In 1965, the Sherman Brothers won two Academy Awards for “Mary Poppins,” including the Oscar-winning “Chim Chim Cher-ee,” and they went on to write more motion-picture musical song scores than any other songwriting team in film history.

Now, the Sherman brothers’ own sons, Jeffrey and Gregory, are working together to tell the story of their fathers, and the two will be available for a question and answer session after the screening.

The David and Dorothea Garfield Theatre is located at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center at 4126 Executive Drive. For tickets or information, call (858) 362-1348 or visit www.lfjcc.org/sdjff.

BUSINESS Integrative health center offers alternative therapies

BY CHARLES IYOHO | VILLAGE NEWS At age 18, most teenagers are preparing for life in the workforce or on a college campus.

Not Gita Appelbaum, founder and CEO of La Jolla Integrative Heath and Charter Academy (LJIHCA).

She was preparing for life in a foreign country.

“I landed here on a Greyhound Bus,” said the Trinidad native, describing her journey to the United States. “I was this little island girl that was told that I couldn’t make it.”

Turns out, she did.

In May, Appelbaum launched LJIHCA at 7880 Exchange Place. The alternative therapy center is aimed at steering patients toward mental and physical wellness.

Appelbaum said she decided to get into the business after her 12-year-old son David fell victim to the negative pressures of his peers.

“David kept on doing marijuana,” said Appelbaum, also noting he had tried to get involved with a gang. “There was no intervention for him. He started having emotional meltdowns. So I decided to start an integrative center because I don’t really believe in only traditional treatment if you’re sick. I think, if you have a medical problem, you can use other modalities of treatment.”

Appelbaum said the center offers several services, including school physicals, wellness exams, pregnancy tests, breast cancer screening, acupuncture, chiropractic therapy, massages, yoga and meditation, art and musical therapy, reiki therapy and homeopathy.

Appelbaum currently has a team of professionals who take care of each need. However, she’s looking for additional staff members, including a nutritionist, hypnotist and life coach.

Her husband Gordon, a doctor, serves as a medical consultant.

“I want to work with the ones that can not afford medical care,” said Appelbaum. “If you can’t afford it, you shouldn’t be persecuted for it or denied it.”

Appelbaum, who moved to San Diego in 1981, received her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing. In a month’s time, she will return to school to get a doctorate in school leadership management.

Appelbaum eventually hopes to establish a Kindergarten through 12th grade charter school. She said it will focus on teaching students about the importance of living a healthy lifestyle, while also providing an eclectic and challenging academic schedule.

“I never thought I’d want to start a charter school in integrative health,” said Appelbaum, who spends time over the weekends distributing food to the impoverished. “But, I saw the public school that was supposed to be so good in suburban, middle class families…fail my son.”

In the distant future, Appelbaum said she’s interested in returning to her homeland to do similar work and hopes to eventually establish integrative health practices worldwide.

Appelbaum describes her business as a “one-stop shop” for healing.

“I want to rehab young adults and give them a purpose,” she said. “I want to form a community.”

Local consignment boutique is a ‘pet’ project

BY JENNA FRAZIER | VILLAGE NEWS The polished display of Ark Antiques at 7620 Girard Ave. exudes all the allure and sophistication of a high-end boutique. But the consignment antique shop and nonprofit corporation, powered by more than 50 volunteers, has a mission that extends beyond elegance.

All of the store’s nearly $1.5 million annual proceeds, after rent and managerial expenses, benefit animal charities both locally and nationwide. Grants can range from $500 to $15,000 or more and help cover veterinary and capital expenses for groups like Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS), Spay-Neuter Assistance Program (SNAP), United Pegasus, Operation Greyhound and Project Wildlife.

“I call it a win-win situation,” store manager Daisy Fitzgerald said. “Customers have a way to sell items safely and purchase things of value, and of course it all benefits the animals.”

In extreme circumstances, the staff goes above and beyond the call of duty. During the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the staff flew three volunteers out to New Orleans to set up and aid animal shelters.

When wildfires raged in East County in 2003, the group provided an emergency donation to deliver food and medical resources to rehabilitate animals that were stranded or injured.

Ark Antique’s collection consists exclusively of donations and consignment items.

“We try to find out what things are really worth,” Davison said.

Davison and Fitzgerald maintain high standards for the store’s contents, they said.

“We receive a lot of beautiful things because of our location,” Davison said. “We also try to display things nicely as though they were in a home. People tend to come in and linger because of the nice environment and pleasant ambiance.”

Davison, who enjoys decorating, designs the displays herself.

“Some people like to feel as though they’ve dug around and discovered some hidden treasure,” she said.

“But we try to help people imagine how things will look in a home, and we think visitors prefer to see things peacefully and elegantly arranged rather than haphazardly jumbled together.”

Of course, both Fitzgerald and Davison — and their crew of volunteers — also share a passion for their furry friends.

“We like animals better than most people,” Fitzgerald joked.

Her own brood includes a silky terrier, Eddy, and a cockatiel, Ricky.

“I only have two dogs right now, but I’ve been known to have five at a time,” Davison said, referring to Noah and Lily, Cavalier King Charles spaniels, who she said were “rejected” because they didn’t meet show dog standards.

For more information, call Ark Antiques at (858) 459-7755 or visit Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

“We’re not dealers, so we don’t buy anything,” owner Elizabeth Davison said.

The store’s merchandise can range from an $8 teacup to $25,000 for a diamond ring or $30,000 for an antique Venetian latrine, “and everything in between,” Davison said.

Sales come predominantly from crystal, china, jewelry, artwork and furniture, Davison said.

“We have a really eclectic collection of paintings and prints,” she said.

About 20 percent of the items are donated, and the rest are submitted on consignment — when they sell, the original owner receives 60 percent of the selling price and Ark Antiques keeps 40 percent.

While Davison said items are priced “competitively,” they seek a balance that will deter dealers and leave quality finds for the general public.

“We try to price so that shoppers can come in and feel they’ve gotten a good deal, but so that it would be a stretch for dealers,” she said.

However, Fitzgerald added, “We do have a nice clientele of both dealers and decorators.”

Prices are determined through a pricing committee, also comprised of volunteers, who do extensive research to determine each item’s worth. Davison and Fitzgerald regularly recruit local experts for advice on the value of gems and jewelry, paintings and Oriental rugs, for example. They also refer to an extensive reference library and various art organizations.

Torreys set goals beyond Central League title

CIF implements new concussion rules

BY LEE CORNELL | VILLAGE NEWS

BY THOMAS CONROY | VILLAGE NEWS

After winning a league title in 2009, the La Jolla Country Day boys water polo team is excited about the direction it’s heading in.

“That was a big deal and a goal for us and the school,” said head coach Steve Traverso, adding that it was the first aquatic championship in school history.

With nearly the entire starting lineup intact, there doesn’t seem to be much reason LJCD can’t keep setting records. After bowing out to University City in the first round of the CIF playoffs last year, Traverso has raised the bar for his expectations.

“We would love to win league again and I think we have a good shot to,” he said. “And we’ll try to make it to the quarterfinals (at CIF).”

Traverso knows repeating won’t be easy. He said stout Central League rivals Mission Bay and Mira Mesa loom large. The Torreys face off against Mission Bay on the road Oct. 20 and again at home on Nov. 5.

The Torreys have looked great early, jumping out to a flying 7-0 start that included a 5-0 mark at the South San Diego Invitational. The formidable play of four seniors who joined the team three years ago when Traverso took over the program has made a big difference in the squad’s maturity and confidence.

Traverso said the senior group, which includes Liam Devine, Nick Augustine, Jack Hipkins and Donald Dean, has helped lay the path for the future. The program qualified for CIF just one time in its relatively young history before doing so in each of the past two seasons, a feat the fourth-year coach can hang his hat on.

Although he cites depth as one of the squad’s biggest strengths, Traverso said there is no denying how essential Devine has been to

The thought of high school football conjures up memories of past gridiron conquests and the chance to catch up with childhood friends at Homecoming, now that San Diego teens are again strapping up their chinstraps for another season. At an early age, football players are taught the importance of adopting a warriormentally to overcome pain and adversity on the field.

But times are changing. That attitude has become passé. No longer can an on-field collision be classified as “getting your bell rung” because of the heightening awareness of concussions that has trickled down from the NFL all the way to high school campuses. California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) passed a new rule this summer involving the handling of this specific injury in game competition.

The new protocol calls for a referee to remove a player who has sustained a concussion or head injury for the remainder of that game.

That player cannot return to practice or games until they have been evaluated and cleared by a licensed medical professional trained in concussion management. Independent medical studies have shown that teenagers are more susceptible to concussions and often take longer to recover from them.

Local high school coaches fear the wording of this rule will put more pressure on the game officials to make judgment calls without having the correct training to diagnose concussionlike symptoms in players. But Joel Allen, interim athletic director and head football coach at The Bishop’s School has a different opinion.

“It’s a good rule because the spirit pertains to maintaining the safety of players on the field,” Allen said. “We play sports in a different era.

Off-season training programs have become a

the success of the team as it continues to grow.

“He’s our leader on offense,” Traverso said.

“He was our leading goal scorer last year and he’s hands down our most experienced player.”

The captain has carried the Torreys offense at times, scoring five or six goals in any given game.

Josh Richmond has also been an integral piece of the puzzle this season, taking over goalkeeping duties. As the only fresh face on the starting roster this year, the junior has impressed coaches and teammates while playing arguably the most important position in the pool.

“He’s stepped it up big time,” Traverso said.

“He brings a lot of fire to the game and he works extremely hard. He has become a really solid goalie this year.”

Richmond notched 12 saves on Sept. 17 in a 10-6 victory over Serra.

The Torreys’ season rolls on with an upcoming home game at the Jewish Community Center against Clairemont Oct. 7 and a road test versus Mira Mesa Oct. 12.

year-round process. It’s our responsibility as coaches to evolve with the ever-growing changes that take place in the game.”

CIF officials feel the rule is more stringent, but the symptoms must be clear and obvious before a player can be removed from the game.

Referees will have the opportunity to confer with a team’s trainers before making their final decision.

“When the rule was first proposed, the language was debated heavily and then finally embraced by everyone involved,” said Bill McLaughlin, CIF San Diego Section assistant commissioner.

Society may still be grasping the magnitude of this type of injury, but CIF officials hope to have concussion-management training in place for their referees in the off-season.

Due to budget constraints, some high schools cannot afford a full-time trainer on their athletic staff, which is imperative in diagnosing and treating a concussion injury.

“The hope is to have a doctor right next to our officials, and hopefully they act together in good faith on deciding whether or not a player will continue to play in the game,” McLaughlin said.

Working at a private school, Allen recognizes that having full-time medical personnel on staff is a luxury, especially during tough economic times. He said he is also thankful this rule is not limited to just contact sports.

CIF acknowledges that all sports will be scrutinized under this rule, with heavy attention placed on collision sports (lacrosse and soccer) that are played at a high rate of speed, putting players at risk of sustaining a concussion. Prior to the start of the football season, two concussion-related incidents had already been reported to CIF officials by the injured player’s coaching staff.

Wednesdays@7 begins second season

BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS

BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS Imitating Michael Jackson’s moonwalk is nothing compared to nailing Charlie Chaplin’s shuffle. Rob McClure, the original Princeton in “Avenue Q,” captures the ambulation and mannerisms of Chaplin’s most famous character, The Tramp, in La Jolla Playhouse’s world premiere musical “Limelight: The Story of Charlie Chaplin.”

His amazing performance is right up there with other indelible Playhouse portrayals, such as Jefferson Mays as Charlotte von Mahlsdorf in “I Am My Own Wife” and Sutton Foster in the title role of “Thoroughly Modern Millie.” Mays and Foster received Tony Awards for these roles.

With music and lyrics by Christopher Curtis, book by Curtis and Thomas Meehan, and direction by Warren Carlyle and Michael Unger, “Limelight” engenders an enthusiastic response similar to that experienced at the openings of “Jersey Boys” and “Memphis,” both of which proceeded to Broadway from the Playhouse and copped numerous Tony Awards.

Though the Curtis score suffers slightly for lack of a baritone (both Charlie and his brother, Sydney, are tenors), the music is tuneful and two production numbers, “Tramp Shuffle” and “This Man” are knockouts, the former featuring the entire ensemble in a Chaplin look-alike contest that includes dance, movement and song. “This Man” is a veritable valedictory on the importance of Chaplin to the cinema.

Thanks to Alexander Dodge’s facile scenic design and Zachary Borovay’s projection design, the musical sweeps the audience rapidly through Chaplin’s life, from impoverished childhood in London through his and Sydney’s early vaudeville days to America, where Charlie was invited to join Mack Sennett’s Keystone Films. We meet Hannah, the boys’ mentally-fragile mother (vocally luminous Ashley Brown); vaudeville impresario Karno (Eddie Korbich), who gave him his first break; Sennett (Ron Orbach); a few of

Charlie’s young brides; and his nemesis, gossip columnist Hedda Hopper (Jen Colella). That Brown also portrays Oona O’Neill, Chaplin’s final and longtime wife, may be taken to mean that the child in the man found his mother and lasting love even though he was ousted by his adopted country during the House Un-American Hearings.

Jake Evan Schwenke and LJ Benet portray the boys as children and they are both accomplished and natural simultaneously. Also a grand singer, as is McClure, Matthew Scott is most effective as Sydney, the more grounded and serious brother. Curtis provides songs that advance the plot nicely, including Hannah’s “Look at All the People,” Charlie’s “The Life that You Wished For,” and Hopper’s “When It All Falls Down.” Oona and Charlie’s

What’s not to love about a gorgeous new concert hall? And how can we get more people to experience its excellence? Those are among the enviable questions that faced the music faculty at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), following the opening of the acclaimed 400-seat Conrad Prebys Concert Hall in May 2009. The answer was to inaugurate a new, broad-ranging and eclectic series called Wednesdays@7. Among the initial season’s most exciting events was the December 2009 world premiere of Anthony Davis and Allan Havis’s long-awaited opera, “Lilith.”

Once UCSD teacher and pianist Aleck Karis had welcomed new graduate students to the music department in mid-September last year, he and his fellow concert committee members — Susan Narucki, Rand Steiger, Steven Schick and Davis — turned their attention to programming the 11-concert second season of Wednesdays@7, which begins Oct. 6.

“I think the programs, featuring faculty and distinguished guests, reflect the eclectic interests and questing energy of our department,” Karis said. “We hope that the earlier time will encourage more students and members of the campus community to stay on campus for these events, and of course we want to share this exciting [and often unfamiliar] music with the broader San Diego community.”

The Oct. 6 concert features Karis and cellist Charles Curtis in something termed “provocative and rare” by publicist Dirk Sutro, a performance of Morton Feldman’s circa 80-minute “Patterns in a Chromatic Field.”

According to Karis, he and Curtis took their time initially learning the infamously difficult work, which they subsequently performed many times in the U.S. and Europe, and then recorded for Tzadik Records in 2004. Karis admitted that even after all this time, the piece is still extremely challenging.

“Above all,” he said, “in the concentration required to sustain 70 minutes of very intense music. Some of the purely technical difficulties have melted away, which leaves more time and energy to work on issues like balance and color.”

At first, Feldman’s quirky notation of both rhythm and pitch took some getting used to, but by now it feels almost normal. Karis feels that Prebys Hall, with its warm and immediate SEE WEDNESDAYS, Page 14

They generously stepped up and gave the use of their showplace of a home as the venue for “Wine, Women and Shoes,” a fundraiser for Circle of Life 100. This is a support group for Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas, and the funds raised will help buy high-tech breastspecific gamma imaging equipment.

The technology, available at only a few hospitals, advances the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer, and will benefit patients from numerous nearby communities.

The hundreds of female guests kicked up their heels and found themselves tempted with shoes and handbags presented on silver platters, plus wine tastings and culinary treats from 23 purveyors. A dozen boutiques offered art, apparel, shoes, gifts and accessories, and auction items drew excited bidding. A program with emotional stories of breast cancer diagnosis and recovery elicited tears and smiles from the audience.

••• La Jolla Realtor Tom Groff is known for throwing (with a cadre of young professionals as co-hosts) huge parties that benefit various children’s charities. His most recent bash was the 31st annual Barefoot Near the Beach party at Ramin Pourteymour’s strikingly modernistic La Jolla Farms edifice. A bucket of Windansea sand was by the front door as the 500-plus guests gradually filled the grounds. Attire was “summer black tie” (tux tops and shorts) for guys; ladies wore cool cocktail dresses, and there was plenty of champagne to help everyone say their goodbyes to the summer.

•••

Our beloved La Jolla Playhouse (LJP) celebrated its newest show with parties before and after the Opening Night performance. “Limelight: The Story of Charlie Chaplin” tells the tale of America’s favorite little tramp — the London import who made audiences laugh all around the world. Yes, it’s the story of Chaplin’s life, but the show wisely dwells more on the charming Charlie we all knew and loved than on his alleged leftleaning policies, four marriages (mostly to teenage brides) and numerous affairs. Those slightly sordid details are given their due, but without being allowed to bring an overall somber tone to the show. It’s well-acted, brilliantly choreographed and wonderfully entertaining. In short it’s a sure hit.

Opening Night guests enjoyed a pre-show reception with delicious hors d’oeuvres, wines, cocktails and specialty drinks dubbed “Limelight” and “Chaplin-Rita.” LJP artistic director Christopher Ashley told the crowd that the Playhouse has had a long association with the Chaplin family, having staged works conceived and directed by Charlie’s daughter, Victoria, and starring his granddaughter, Aurelia. After the play, the enthused guests returned for an after-party with a DJ, four bars and a big dessert buffet with many historic movie theater candy favorites.

Israeli-American artists show work at Gotthelf Art Gallery

BY WILL BOWEN | VILLAGE NEWS The Gotthelf Art Gallery, at the Lawrence Family Jewish Community Center, 4126 Executive Drive, is a small, square room with white walls, track lighting and a very shiny waxed gray floor. Gotthelf recently opened a new show called “Desert to Desert: Southern California Artists From Israel,” which features the work of seven Israeli-American artists. It is a small but compact exhibit that packs quite a punch.

This is a “thinking man’s show.”

The artists’ statements of their personal philosophy and approach to art, posted on the wall next to their artwork, are worth the visit by themselves.

The exhibit was curated by Sara Cannon, who is the director of museum education and tours at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery and the Hollyhock House. Cannon said the show is “an example of the strong and vital part that Israeli-American artists play in the contemporary West Coast arts scene.”

Artist Malka Nedivi exhibits a series of wooden wall sculptures made of glue, paper, fabric, and paint which are on wooden panels. They are of low relief and are a somewhat scary, sad, fearful and bone-like series, depicting women’s bodies and faces with a Holocaust theme.

“My art is inspired by the time I spent in Israel looking after my parents, who are Holocaust survivors,” Nedivi said.

paints. The subject of her paintings are penguins, which are a metaphor for people. Her best piece is called “Winter Night Lust,” which shows a group of penguins looking up at the stars.

“Wonder, exploration and curiosity are the three words that inform the internal psychology of my work today,” Ben-Tal said.

Rhea Carmi has four mixed media pieces in the show. They are rich and colorful, resembling ancient battle shields, in ochre and orange.

“To grow up in Israel is to experience the world both as upheaval and as sanctuary,” Carmi said. “In response to war, my palette and formal vocabulary became simpler, more solitary, contemplative and inward turning.”

Sparkling jewelry, illustrious company

BY DIANA CAVAGNARO | VILLAGE NEWS Linda Joslin had a “Gathering of Friends” recently at her atelier on Ivanhoe Street.

Friends, customers and jewelry enthusiasts were invited. Creed Johnson serenaded the group with his guitar music and songs, and Delicios provided the hors d’oeuvres.

Joslin has been in business for 30 years. This artistic jeweler creates unique and special jewelry and she loves the process of designing for her customers and their lifestyle. She has designed for actress Linda Grey, philanthropist Joan Croc, Eladio Sauza from the tequila-manufacturing family, photographer Greg Gorman and actor Mickey Rourke.

A program was set up and many customers spoke about their treasured pieces of jewelry they purchased from Joslin, and brought some of these exquisite pieces to the gathering to show everyone. They also spoke about their experiences with Joslin.

CHAPLIN

CONTINUED FROM Page 11 final duet, “What Only Love Can See,” is lovely and the composer provides contrasting musical styles even though he seems to prefer high voices.

The directors smoothly stage the large, 22-person company. Linda Cho’s costumes span the years admirably, with Charlie’s extemporaneous creation of the Tramp, seemingly from thin air, a magical moment indeed. The final image is such that it will be stored in that compartment reserved for one’s

WEDNESDAYS

Some of the customers brought old jewelry to be melted down and made into something new. Others brought old stones reconfigured into something extraordinary, and some bought stones on their vacations and brought them back to be designed by Joslin.

Jack Krauss, owner of a famous art salon, brought sculptures, jewelry boxes and paintings to the gathering.

Joe Rosen, a precious metal supplier from the Argen company, spoke about what was new for jewelry alloys. Rosen said they now have 19-karat white gold to offer their clients. It is harder and less expensive than platinum.

Linda’s son, Dan Joslin, also works in the business. He talked about how talented his mom is. The gathering of friends ended with a drawing for a Burmese moon-stone set with white gold. The winner of the ring was Bonnie Horn, who went home a happy friend of the gathering.

LA JOLLA LIVING Composer and the diva meet at Neurosciences Institute

BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS FanFaire Foundation presents acclaimed American opera composer Jake Heggie and well-known mezzosoprano Suzanna Guzman in a notto-be-missed event at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 3, at the Neurosciences Institute Auditorium.

Described by Heggie as “kind of a recital,” the affair is titled “Writing Opera Today: An Afternoon of Arias and Songs.” Ev Laserma of FanFaire promises an inside look at the art form, from inspiration to exposition, or, if you will, from the writing to the singing.

Knowing the ease and sensibility of both composer and singer, the writer can guarantee that Laserma’s statement that the program will include “informative and delightful commentaries” by both is a foregone conclusion.

Heggie, who is known worldwide for his highly successful opera “Dead Man Walking,” was acclaimed last April when Dallas Opera presented the world premiere of his most recent opera, “Moby-Dick,” with libretto by Gene Scheer. “Moby-Dick” was commissioned by a consortium of five opera companies, including San Diego Opera, where it will be produced in January 2012.

Heggie has been writing songs for singers since he was a lad, influenced by his father’s extensive record collection. After moving to the West Coast, he studied with Ernst Bacon, known for his attention to the color and inflection of words, who impressed upon Heggie the importance of setting poems by the likes of Whitman, Emerson, Melville and Dickinson. Like his mentor, Heggie (www.jakeheggie.com) has composed well over 200 songs. His latest CD release is “Passing by: Songs by Jake Heggie,” available on Avie.

Heggie provides piano accompaniment to Guzman’s performance of

Jake Heggie

arias and songs. In addition, he plays the prelude to “Moby-Dick.” Among the works Guzman will sing are arias from Heggie’s operas “Dead Man Walking” and “Three Decembers” and selections from his song cycle “Paper Wings,” with text by Frederica von Stade.

Guzman has had a distinguished career in opera and is known for appearances at the Metropolitan Opera, Italy’s Spoleto Festival and San Diego Opera, and notably for her signature role as Carmen, a role she has sung more than a hundred times in major houses worldwide. In addition to her vocal aplomb, Guzman is a marvelous actress with personality and an easy, humor-filled stage presence.

Tickets for “Writing Opera Today: An Afternoon of Arias and Songs with Jake Heggie and Suzanna Guzman” range from $30 (adult) to $12 (student) and are available online at http://www.fanfairefoundation.org and at the door. The Neurosciences Institute is located at 10640 John J. Hopkins Drive.

— Performing arts writer Charlene Baldridge’s poetry has been set to music by Jake Heggie since 2004 when he premiered his song cycle, “Winter Roses.” Baldridge’s poem “Motherwit” is sung on “Passing By”

by Frederica von Stade and Susan Graham.

“Moonlight at Pierce College” by Lidia Shaddow.

GOTTHELF CONTINUED FROM Page 13

Moshe Elimelech has four wall sculptures in the show, which are called the “Cubic Construction Series.”

They resemble Rubik’s Cubes, surrounded by a brushed aluminum frame. The cubes are brightly painted with different designs and are movable so that the viewer can interact with the piece. Moshe said this involves the viewer in dialogue because “life is a conversation and art is its universal language.”

The centerpiece of the show is the work of Lidia Shaddow. She has three large paintings in oil and acrylic with photography and two small pieces on tiles. Her work is very colorful, usual, alive, exotic and vibrant. She paints strange flowers with photographs inside of them.

“Beauty and harmony exist in most everything and everyone,” Shaddow said. “I am intrigued by and drawn to color, patterns, and texture in nature.”

Guri Stark works in water color and he has four paintings on exhibit. His images, such as of a house in the country in Israel, are simple, realistic and clear. Stark said he is “an artist stuck in the body of an engineer.”

The most difficult artwork in the show is that of Gali Rotstein. Her paintings are very dark, one is almost completely black. They are composed in gauche, which is a type of opaque watercolor.

“I am influenced by the gauche itself. I paint and the paint dictates the images,” Gali said.

Admission is free and the show runs until Nov. 19. For further information, see www.sdcjc.org or call (858) 4573030

PEOPLE IN THE NEWS • Michelle Morris, a local teacher, has received a University of California Alumni “Change the World” scholarship from UC San Diego Extension.

Morris will use the award to pursue a certificate in art with the goal of becoming an expressive arts therapist at an elementary school.

• Four scientists at Scripps Institute of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego have been honored for their work in exploring biological aspects of the oceans.

Octavio Aburto-Oropeza, of Scripps’ Marine Biology Research Division (MBRD) and Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation (CMBC), has been selected to receive a Kathryn Fuller Fellowship by the World Wildlife Fund. He was the sole winner in the world-wide competition of nearly 100 applicants, and the fellowship will support his research relating to the ecological and economic importance of marine reserves in the Gulf of California.

Francesca Malfatti, also a researcher at the Scripps MBRD, has been selected to receive the International Recognition of Professional Excellence Prize by the International ecology Institute. The

$3,880 prize was awarded in August in Oldendorf, Germany and is meant to honor an ecologist under the age of 40 who has published “uniquely independent, original and/or challenging research representing an important scientific breakthrough.”

The Botanical Society of America has awarded Brian Palenik, a Scripps MBRD professor of marine biology, the 2010 Darbaker Prize for meritorious work in the study of microscopic algae.

Michael Tillman, a research associate in Scripps CMBC, has been selected as a member of the Marine Mammal Commission. The appointment to the three-member commission was made by President Barack Obama, and is charged with the protection and conservation of marine mammals and the maintenance of the health and stability of the ecosystems upon which they depend. Tillman’s previous accomplishments include working under the appointment of former President Bill Clinton as deputy U.S. commissioner to the International Whaling Commission and as U.S. commissioner to the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission.
