Grub Sprawl serves up meals for steals in La Jolla

Events to honor boardshaping pioneer nique that has been resurfacing as of late. The 70-year-old surfboard shaper grew up in La Jolla, surfing Windansea Beach with his two older brothers. It was there that he first conceptualized the revolutionary asymmetrical surfboard design based on his discovery that one board would ride better left and another would ride better right. “Standing asymmetrically on your board, your two turns — front side and back side — are different,” he said of his inspiration for the design, which he first built in 1965 and patented in 1967. The idea behind the asymmetrical design is to cater to the surfer’s non-

linear weighted stance and enhance the rider’s ability to respond with ease in both directions, while also giving the rider speed down the line. Although Ekstrom enjoyed the thrill of surfing — especially on his asymmetrical creations — things got “kind of crowded” at Windansea, and he shifted his focus solely to surfboard design. To test out his prototypes, legendary riders like Richard Kenvin and Ryan Burch pilot the new designs and Ekstrom analyzes the ride and gets feedback from them. “There’s a lot of different things that people are trying to get out of a SEE EKSTROM, Page 5

espite the fact that La Jolla native Carl Ekstrom has not hit the waves in a few years, he remains a mover and shaker in surf communities around the world, constantly reinventing the art of surfboard shaping to cater to each surfer’s unique riding style. The master crafter, who has been honored with a multitude of awards throughout his lifetime, is featured in a massive collection of literature and is well known in the surf community for both inventing and relentlessly rejuvenating the asymmetrical surfboard concept — a shaping tech-

ize its guest rooms, food and beverage outlets, meeting spaces and spa later this year. “We are delighted to become the stewards of La Valencia Hotel, a true landmark in Southern California,” said Ash Israni, chairman of Pacifica Companies. “As a local company, we know what an important place ‘La V’ has in the community. We’re committed to the future of La Valencia and to ensuring it remains the premier destination in La Jolla.” La Valencia was owned by the Collins family for 65 years before Pacifica began the process of purchasing the property last

year. At the time of the initial sale, the Collins family released statements indicating their desire to sell was due in part to a polo accident suffered by Harry Collins several years ago. Built in 1926, La Valencia sits atop La Jolla Cove in the heart of downtown and has been dubbed a “Hollywood hideaway” for some of the nation’s most elite celebrities. Pacifica owns more than 30 properties in five states, most of which are brand names such as Holiday Inn, Wyndham, Crowne Plaza and Hilton. — Mariko Lamb

NEWS Police continue to investigate taxi driver’s slaying in La Jolla Police are still investigating the shooting death of cabdriver Mir Najibullah Sadat Sahou in La Jolla. Reports of gunshots brought police officers to the 8600 block of La Jolla Scenic Drive North late in the evening on Sept. 28. There, officers discovered the body of the 68-year-old Afghan immigrant. Witnesses saw the man’s cab pull up to the west curb of the street and the driver and another male exited the car. An exchange of words and a struggle was followed by several gunshots, according to witness accounts. The suspect got back into the cab and fled northbound on La Jolla Scenic Drive North. The taxi was found abandoned by a Northern Division patrol officer at 2:20 a.m. on Sept. 29 on the 1200 block of Coast Boulevard. Police have not released any information about the investigation, but they are investigating it as a robberymurder. Lt. Kevin Rooney of the Homicide Unit said officers have no information regarding the whereabouts of the suspect and they do not know if the suspect knew the victim prior to the shooting. Anyone with information about the case is encouraged to call the Homicide Unit at (619) 531-2293 or Crime Stoppers at (888) 580-8477. — Kendra Hartmann

• University City High School won a $2,500 donation from Westfield Plaza Bonita through the “Give Back to School” program hosted by Westfield shopping centers. UCHS was chosen along with Chula Vista Hills Elementary School by shoppers themselves. Families voted at the shopping center and online. Voters presented their shopping receipts from Westfield retailers to the concierge desk at the center, with each dollar spent counting as one point. Additional points were earned by “liking” Westfield Plaza Bonita on Facebook. Westfield will donate more than $57,500 to local schools to be used to support programs like arts and music, sciences, physical education, libraries and technology resources. The shopping center will host a check presentation event for both schools at a later date. • Three La Jolla schools have earned a national honor for their work fighting hunger. La Jolla Country Day, La Jolla Elementary and The Gillispie School have all received a National School of Distinction status from the Schools Fight Hunger program. Fewer than 2,000 schools nationwide earned this level of distinction in the 2010-11 school year. The status is awarded to schools that demonstrate notable enthusiasm, creativity or dedication in getting involved with the hunger cause.

THURSDAY · OCTOBER 6, 2011 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

By activating students around a schoolwide food drive, organizing volunteers for a local pantry or food bank or cultivating a school garden to provide fresh produce for the cause, schools all across the country have been playing a larger and larger role in helping to fight hunger nationwide. “The students, staff and families of our School of Distinction schools should be very proud of their efforts and the impact they’re making on the hunger cause,” said Schools Fight Hunger founder Tim Sullivan. “Of course, the short-term results are impressive, but we also love to see how our next generation of leaders are getting active in their communities at such a young age. In a day when so much news about our kids and our schools seems so negative, these schools and these students are well worth celebrating.” The Schools Fight Hunger program is a two-year-old initiative focused on connecting schools nationwide with the hunger cause and helping those schools fight hunger most effectively. To learn more about the La Jolla schools’ efforts or to get involved, visit www.schoolsfighthunger.org. The Fall 2011 Schools Fight Hunger campaign features an awards program (and the chance to have school efforts multiplied thanks to ConAgra Foods) for participating and reporting schools. — Staff and contribution

Officials investigate chemical substance released into air in University City apartment The San Diego Fire-Rescue Department and hazmat crews responded to reports of a chemical irritant in a University City apartment building on Sept. 28. After several residents complained of symptoms consistant with an irritant like pepper spray, including a burning throat and nose, crews evacuated several units on the top floor of the building and ordered other residents on the floor to shelter in their homes. Representatives of both the FireRescue Department and the SDPD’s

Northern Division have said there is no new information about exactly what the chemical was, though the substance was determined to be nonhazardous. Officials said the chemical was diffused through the air, but they have no information on how or why the chemical was released. Five residents were taken to the hospital for their symptoms, which subsided, as did the chemical in the air, over time. Officials lifted the evacuation notice in the building after an hour. — Kendra Hartmann

• Fred Gage, a professor in the Salk Institute Laboratory of Genetics and holder of the Vi and John Adler FRED GAGE Chair for Research on AgeRelated Neurodegenerative Diseases, was named a 2011 recipient of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director's Transformative Research Projects (T-R01) program. Only 17 T-R01 projects were selected throughout the country and will be supported with a total of $15.9 million in funding. Gage, who will receive $700,000 over the next five years, was the sole researcher in San Diego awarded a grant by the program. Gage has challenged the theory that most healthy cells in an individual possess identical genomes by showing the activity of mobile elements of genetic material can create a unique mosaic of different genomes in any individual's brain. Researchers in his lab will pair with Roger Lasken of the J. Craig Venter Institute to develop innovative single cell approaches to understand how unique genomic mosaics make identical twins different from one another and contribute to spontaneous neurological diseases. "This important award from the NIH recognizes Dr. Gage's pio-

neering research that continues to push the boundaries of science," said Salk Institute President William R. Brody in a recent statement. "The grant will provide funding to further these studies that are critically important for the advancement of basic research that could aid in the development of new therapies to improve the lives of people with a range of neurological disorders." • University City resident Gayle Blatt was honored as an outstanding trial lawyer by the Consumer GAYLE BLATT Attorneys of San Diego (CASD) during a special “Evening with the Trial Stars” dinner at the U.S. Grant Hotel in downtown San Diego on Sept. 30. Every year, CASD — a local organization of trial lawyers dedicated to preserving and protecting the legal rights of consumers — celebrates the accomplishments of San Diego attorneys who have obtained outstanding results for their clients. The firm’s senior partner, David S. Casey, Jr. — whose father David Casey, Sr. founded CASD in 1960 — said Blatt and two other Casey Gerry attorneys were honored for their efforts on two separate cases. Blatt and colleague Robert J. Francavilla were commended for their work on Finley v. Club One, Inc. Francavilla and Blatt obtained $1.8 million for their client, David Finley, after he fell and suffered serious injuries while

playing basketball at Club One, a fitness facility in Carmel Mountain Ranch. • UCSD bioengineering professor Shu Chien was honored by President Obama on Sept. 27 with SHU CHIEN the National Medal of Science, the highest honor bestowed by the United States government on scientists and engineers. Chien was one of seven researchers to receive the award, and was the only engineer among the medalists. Chien is a professor in the department of bioengineering at the UCSD Jacobs School of Engineering. He is a world leader in the study of how blood flow and pressure affect blood vessels and is the director of the school’s Institute of Engineering in Medicine. Chien is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and has published more than 500 archival journal articles and 11 books. He has served in leadership positions in the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) and the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering (AIMBE). The National Medal of Science was created by statute in 1959 and is administered for the White House by the National Science Foundation. Awarded annually, the Medal recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to science and engineering.

La Jollan brings her love of writing to community Diane Malloy knew that creativity flows out of La Jolla — she just didn’t see any outlet for it. For years, Malloy has been involved with San Diego Writers, Ink (SDWI), an organization DIANE dedicated to serving San MALLOY Diego’s literary scene. The group hosts events like open mics, writers’ roundtables and critiquing sessions. Starting out as the Writing Center in the 1990s, the organization became incorporated and changed its name in 2004. Since its base began to grow, Malloy, a La Jollan who has worked as a writer, a teacher and a counselor and has experience writing everything from grants to fiction, has seen drop-in creative writing groups pop up in just about every corner of the city — except La Jolla. “There was such a need for this kind of thing in La Jolla,” she said. “There is one downtown, there was one in South Park that moved to North Park, and there used to be one in Del Mar, but we never had anything in the north city area.” Malloy took that hole and filled it with the Pen to Paper weekly drop-in writing group. Every week since Aug. 25, Malloy has hosted an ever-changing group of writers at the La Jolla Riford Library. From those who have never written a word to accomplished scribes who have been published (“It’s a very even playing field,” she said) show up, pen and paper in hand. Malloy gives them a prompt — a

photo or perhaps a word — and they set to writing whatever comes to their minds for 20 minutes. Afterward, those who wish to read what they’ve written are welcome to do so. The group then repeats the process, and they’re done. “This is just about sitting and moving pens,” Malloy said. “The time frame is designed to get people in and out on their lunch hour. They can do this quickly.” La Jollans, it seems, have responded to Malloy’s offer. She said in the month since the group began, she has seen about 50 people in total come and go. Some show up regularly, while others come when they have the time. The group’s average size on any given week is about a dozen writers. “I’ve been wanting to do this for years,” Malloy said. “Lots of people have asked me in the past why there was nothing like this in the area. People keep telling me they’re so glad we’re here, and one woman said she’s wanted something like this for 30 years.” In addition to helping writers exercise their brains and “get their creative juices flowing,” Malloy said the group offers another much-needed benefit: community. “Writers lead such solitary lives,” she said. “We keep each other going and keep each other motivated. It’s good for writers to know other writers.” The group meets at the library, 7555 Draper Ave., every Thursday from noon to 1 p.m. For more information, visit www.lajollalibrary.org, www.sandiegowriters.org, or call (858) 272-2905. — Kendra Hartmann

maker Andy Warhol purchased two of Ekstrom’s custom surfboards from his surf shop in La Jolla Shores to use in “San Diego Surf,” a film about the lost art of surfing. Although the film remained unfinished at the time of Warhol’s death, Ekstrom’s creations stayed on the radar of artists around the nation. His asymmetrical design has influenced designs for other functional creations ranging from military training helmets to Reebok shoes. In addition to shaping boards, Ekstrom extended his passion for industrial design to another functional art form — furniture. “I’ve always been interested in architecture and furniture design,” he said. “I’ve worked with boards and furniture design simultaneously.” Ekstrom will showcase two of his refinished 1968 furniture creations — a two-part “X”shaped chair and a double door made in collaboration with Svetozar Radakovich — at the Mingei International Museum’s exhibit, “Craft Revolution: From Post-War Modern to Califor-

nia Design,” on Oct. 16. Ekstrom — the father of asymmetrical surfboards — continues to shape his legacy as an innovative board designer, experimenting with techniques such as the finless board and “fish egg” tail design. Revolutionizing the art of surfing has translated into the capacity for creating ever-evolving practical designs and functional works of art for the veteran surfer, serving as a foundation for future innovations in a variety of industries.

surfboard,” he said, adding that although there may be a perfect board for a certain rider on a certain wave, the same board might not work for another rider. “As surfing trends change, we have to come up with new designs to accommodate for that,” he said. “Everyone is looking for their own thing in a board. Most of us are refining, refining, refining until getting it to its optimum. We all have our own thing we’re designing for and it’s constantly evolving.” He is working with Kenvin on a project called Hydrodynamica — a collection of surfboards inspired by the work of Bob Simmons, a California surfer and shaper who died while surfing at Windansea Beach in 1954. He is on the cutting edge of evolutions in the sport and constantly experiments with new ways to better serve the rider. At the Sacred Craft Consumer Surfboard Expo, Ekstrom will be honored during the “Tribute to the Masters Shape-off,” where six shapers chosen by Ekstrom will design, shape and craft their own versions of asymmetrical boards for a $1,000 grand prize. He will also have his own prototypes on hand to showcase, discuss and sell. For Ekstrom, surfboard shaping is both a practical industrial design and an art form. Although his creations are built and renowned for rider utility, Ekstrom’s talent has not gone unnoticed in the The double door Carl Ekstrom created in collaboration with Svetozar Radakovich in artist community. 1967 consists of polyurethane foam, fiberglass and wood with a resin insert.

Another LJ strike by the Geezer Bandit? Just after 6:30 p.m. on Sept. 30, the Wells Fargo bank inside the Vons grocery store at 7544 Girard Ave. was robbed by an armed man who resembled the “Geezer Bandit” — an armed and elusive serial bank robber described as a 6-foot, 190-pound, grey-haired white male in his 60s or 70s. The elderly-looking male in Wells Fargo bank’s surveillance video looked similar to the Geezer Bandit, who is suspected of robbing 14 banks throughout Southern California since August 2009 — including the Bank of America on Girard Avenue and the San Diego National Bank on Ivanhoe Avenue. FBI Special Agent Darrell Foxworth, however, said the

FBI has not confirmed the robber is part of the Geezer Bandit bank robbery series. Witnesses described the robber at the Wells Fargo bank as being a 6foot-1-inch, bald, thin white male in his 70s wearing glasses, a grey suit and possibly makeup. Some investigators speculate the Geezer Bandit and the elderly white male who robbed the La Jolla bank may, in fact, not be “geezers” at all and that the descriptions are based on an elaborate disguise.

GUEST COMMENTARY

Lunch with the president By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D.

“Mr. President, three years ago I met you at a similar venue and told you then that I worried about you — you answered that you were worried about yourself too. You were a candidate then. I must admit that I have not stopped worrying since and that you are also getting a little too thin.” This was my opening line when I asked the first question at a luncheon held for President Barack Obama on Sept. 26. He laughed and said his wife, Michelle, agreed with me. Back in 2007, two weeks after he announced his candidacy in Springfield, Ill., Obama’s first fundraiser was held by Christine Forester — a member of the National Finance Committee — in the La Jolla home of Elizabeth and Mason Phelps. And here we were again in their home. Obama remembered that event and thanked them again for opening their lovely house to us all. The luncheon was held in their large courtyard, covered by a tent with long tables seating 130 of us (I counted). Salads were waiting for us — Chinese noodles over lettuce with pepper and chicken strips catered by Elegant Gourmet. Huge, delicious cookies baked by François Goedhuys, owner of Girard Gourmet, were decorated with the Obama campaign logo — a circle with a red, white and blue rainbow. I had expected traffic congestion getting to La Jolla Village Drive and then onto La Jolla Mesa, but the roads were clear as I passed the first checkpoint and arrived at the second, where police on motorcycles and Secret Service agents — all in black suits — waited to look into my purse and check my ID. Golf carts took us the two blocks to the house where a dozen other early arrivals awaited the signal to enter through the large double doors into the foyer. At that third checkpoint, more security guards armed with metal detector wands checked us over, and the metal in my hip made it buzz. We waited again until the entrance to the courtyard was flung open to the rows of tables and more black suits surrounding the area. While we ate our salads, Rep. Jared Polis of Colorado — son of Susan and Steve Schutz of La Jolla — spoke to us about the sad state of education in our country. Jared is passionate about the issues facing our nation. He also addressed immigration, trade agreements, the Tea Party and several other topics. He is a wonderful spokesperson for all the things I believe in, too, and has a great polit-

ical career in front of him. We had barely finished our lunches when the president arrived, straight from another such event in San Jose (looking fresh — I don’t know how he does it). His navy-blue suit was impeccable, though hopefully the seams were left large enough to make it bigger if he gains the weight back. But then, he’s the president; I guess if the suit becomes too tight, he’ll be able to afford a new one. A palpable rustle of excitement accompanied his arrival. He really does have a wonderful, contagious smile. He spoke for about twenty minutes on the expected topics (immigration, taxes and healthcare issues) but then said he preferred a discussion. As my seat at the table was a few feet from where he was standing — and I know how to wave my arm — he looked at me and said he would take the first question from the lovely young lady in front of him. I was going to say that I was neither lovely nor young nor always sure about “lady,” but asked instead about something I was truly wondering about. I assume, I said, that his staff gives him summaries of all the news media from around the world — he nodded yes — but does he also read in their original the likes of Thomas Freedman, Paul Krugman, Maureen Dowd and David Brooks, and if yes, what kind of impact do these columnists have on him? He said he does read them and mentioned that both Freedman and Brooks are good friends and agree with him 80 percent of the time, but that is not what they write about. Controversy is what makes headlines. Besides the expected questions regarding our national and global issues, some questions were more unique. One dealt with the idea of installing a water pipeline to go from flooded areas to draught-affected ones. He thought it would be great, but there is no money for the corps of engineers to build such a pipeline. Another question that struck me was asked by Janice Brown. She wanted to know when he would finally get “pissed off.” “Now,” he said to great applause. We also found out that his favorite drink is a martini straight up, but only on Friday and Saturday nights. His favorite movies are the first two Godfathers and he likes re-reading Shakespeare, Faulkner and Hemmingway. Although there were many more hands up for questions, he had to get on his plane for the next event in Los Angeles. We were asked to wait until he left with his motorcade. It is a special thrill to be in the presence of the president of the United States — something seems to rub off and make us feel a little bit larger, part of a tight community, part of a proud country. Especially for someone like me, an immigrant who came through Ellis Island armed with not one word of English, the fact that “I talked to the president” was, and is, awesome.

Talking too much or not at all Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. We have all attended meetings disrupted by someone who takes up all the “air time.” We have also been at meetings where one or more participants do not contribute. This goes for any meeting in any business or indus-

try, and the same even rings true for dinner parties. Strangely enough, the person who talks too much and the person who talks too little may both suffer from the same problem; they just deal with it differently. The person who does not speak may feel he or she has nothing of value to add or may be uncomfortable jumping in. Often, women worry that what they have to say will be seen as irrelevant or reveal their ignorance. Most men believe they’re doing well unless criticized, while most women believe they’re not doing well unless praised. As positive feedback is not a norm in

most workplaces, women often don’t know how their contributions are received. This behavior begins in kindergarten when a teacher asks a question and all the little boys’ hands go up whether or not they know the answer. The little girls will only raise their hands when they’re sure they know. As a result, boys are called on more often than girls and get to practice their responses more. On the opposite end of the scale are those who won’t shut up. They may express a thought slowly or try to add something after each comment by others. Often this person is a higher-up and believes it is his prerogative to continually opine or hold forth ad nauseam. But, it is also often people who feel lower down on the totem pole and want to show they are not as inadequate as they believe others perceive them. They keep talking to show they are indeed as knowledgeable as the next person. What to do? If you’re the leader of such a group, your task is to ask the non-talkers for their opinions and reinforce the validity of the contribution by referring to it. After the meeting, the leader can tell the non-participants privately their contributions were helpful and appreciated. If there is no leader to perform this task, anyone who notices a silent person can engage them and validate what is then being said. As a leader in a group with an overebullient person, your task is more difficult. How do you shut someone up without offending? If you guess it is a person who speaks out because of feel-

There is usually an underlying reason someone talks too much or doesn’t talk at all.

ing inferior, you would use the same tactics of reassurance and support. If it is a higher-up who won’t stop talking, you can discreetly ask — after the meeting — for suggestions on how to better equalize the airtime. Perhaps he or she can be asked to monitor how much others talk and discuss observa-

tions with you. Suggesting that junior members are unwilling to express their thoughts and feel intimidated because the talker always seems to have something to say about everything might be a strategy for quieting an over-talker. Asking them to help you encourage others to talk more will give them a role. If it’s a junior member, he or she can be asked to take notes. Generally, people speak too much or too little for real reasons. Responding to the underlying need to express or withdraw might solve the problem — at least in the short run. Some years ago we were members of a monthly dinner group of several very congenial couples. Unfortunately, one member was totally unaware she was using up all the airtime. We were all equally annoyed and equally unwilling to hurt this person, so we said nothing and instead looked at each other with dismay as she rambled on, nonverbally agreeing that this was irritating. In other words, the silent group support helped. This can also help when it is hopeless to change behaviors. I believe, however, that allowing this to continue is a disservice to an individual who is unaware of the irritation that such behavior causes. The ultimate consequence is that such people will not be asked to join other groups, be they work groups or social gatherings, and will suffer from the inevitable ostracism. So the kind, though difficult, thing to do is to take this person aside and ask whether they are aware of talking more than anyone else. Whatever the answer, this behavior is usually unconscious and responds to some psychological need. If the individual becomes defensive and refuses to acknowledge their over-the-top participation, the whole group might have to confront the person with examples of the repercussions of their disruptive behavior. It is important to be aware that criticism should always be constructive and offer an opportunity for growth.

WILD BLUE YONDER BY JUDITH LEA GARFIELD | VILLAGE NEWS Depending on how you view it, either Earth has a major case of the blues or rarely sings the blues. Between the sky and ocean, blue is the most widespread color on the planet. The sky is blue because rays of sunlight streaming into our atmosphere separate into individual wavelengths (colors) as they pass through each air molecule. Longer wavelengths (like red) pass straight through but the shortest wavelength in the visible color spectrum, blue, gets absorbed. Look anywhere and blue is splayed out all around the sky. The ocean is blue because water molecules also absorb colors in the red part of the light spectrum, leaving behind the blues for us divers. For all the blue sky and ocean, true-blue plants and animals are an elite group. Blue life is rare because few living systems have an alkaline chemistry. (Recall the age-old litmus test where the strip turns red (or pink) for acid and turns blue for alkaline.) Even so, most biological blue is from iridescence or polarization. And you don’t need to commune with nature to note the dearth of blue foods (bubble gum ice cream doesn't count). These reasons make one local sponge a treasure. The cobalt sponge (Acanthancora cyanocrypta) grows as a thin, encrusting

sheet of velvety ultramarine blue that easily holds its own visually, even when positioned adjacent to crimson-colored life. But A. cyanocrypta can’t take credit for its striking hue; that’s the domain of a strain of blue-green bacteria that sponge, so to speak, off the host. The sponge sponges, too, because while the bacteria gains shelter and protection from hungry grazers, the sponge gets nutrients made by the symbiont. Ready access to nutrients boosts the sponge’s survival, particularly when it’s most vulnerable — in the earliest growth stages (sex cells to larval development). Growing fast means the sponge can better compete with other organisms looking for space on an otherwise crowded reef. Sponge-microbe relationships are not unusual, with the color of the symbiotic microbes often masking the sponge’s construction. In this case, unadorned A. cyanocrypta is pale orange. In an experiment that revealed the sponge-bacteria relationship, a host sponge covered by photosynthetic blue-green bacteria was partially shaded to reduce light (inhibit photosynthesis). Over time, the sponge’s footprint under the shaded area was lost to other plant and animal growth, while the lit area remained robust. Further work showed the microbes to be important for more than photosynthesis: they harbor an enzyme that allows them to transform nitrogen gas into solid form, a necessary

but limiting nutrient for animals. Like spinning straw into gold, animals can’t pull off this trick. But when researchers discovered that more of the enzyme was found in the well-lit sponge region than in the shaded part, they found another reason the sponge is dependent on the microbe. And with an in-house factory to keep the pantry stocked, sponges can expand their range. The potential downside to this relationship lies within the symbiont, which, if overgrown, can smother the host’s tissues. Somehow, the sponge must have a control mechanism to counteract this inevitability, such as a way of starving the symbiont. Naturally occurring inorganic blue pigments are also rare, but for other reasons. Before chemists figured out how to reproduce blue, it was mined. Lapis lazuli, an intensely blue, semi-precious stone, has been known for millennia and enjoyed a thriving trade in antiquity. Lapis was probably most used in printing and paintings throughout the 14th and 15th centuries. Interestingly, though the sky is closer at hand, they called it ultramarinum (ultramarine), which means “from beyond the sea.” — Judith Lea Garfield, naturalist and underwater photographer is author of two natural history books about the underwater park off La Jolla Cove and La Jolla Shores.

La Jolla researcher wins Nobel Prize Dr. Bruce Beutler, chair of the department of genetics at the Scripps Research Institute (SRI), was awarded the 2011 Nobel Prize for physiology or medicine. Beutler, also a professor and director of the Center for the Genetics of Host Defense at the University of Texas Southwestern MediDR. BRUCE BEUTLER cal Center, received the award along with Jules A. Hoffmann for their “discoveries concerning the activation of innate immunity.” Beutler, an alumnus of UC San Diego, spearheaded the use of a technique called “forward genetics” to study genes used by the mammalian innate immune system to clear pathogens from the body. He is credited with the key receptors that indicate to the body that an infection is present. He is continuing this research with colleagues at SRI and hopes to find all proteins that protect mammals against infections. Beutler was also the recipient of the 2011 Shaw Prize, the 2009 Albany Medical Center Prize, the 2007 Frederik B. Bang Award and the 2006 William B. Coley Award (Cancer Research Institute), among others. He is the fourth Nobel Laureate SRI faculty member, joining Gerald Edelman (1972 in physiology or medicine), K. Barry Sharpless (2001 in chemistry) and Kurt Wuthrich (2002 in chemistry). — Kendra Hartmann

Work on the project started about five years ago with Oliver Ryder, director of genetics at the San Diego Zoo Institute for Conservation Rsearch and Jeanne Loring, professor of developmental neurobiology at SRI. Ryder had already established the “Frozen Zoo,” a bank of skin cells and other materials from more than 800 species and contacted Loring with the idea that the samples might be used as a starting point to enable lifesaving medical therapies or offer the potential to preserve or expand genetic diversity. Ryder suggested they start the experiment with two species: a highly endangered primate called a drill that has a close genetic connection to humans and that often suffers from diabetes in captivity, and the northern white rhinoceros, one of the most endangered species on the planet. Two of the seven remaining rhinos in existence reside at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. So far, the scientists have only been able to produce a few stem cells at a time, but they “have the start of a new zoo, the stem cell zoo,” said fellow researcher Inbar Friedrich Ben-Nun. • A team of researchers from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography have discovered that plant life on earth recycles carbon dioxide faster than previously expected. The researchers, led by Lisa Welp, followed the path of oxygen atoms on carbon dioxide molecules during photosynthesis to create a new way of measuring the efficiency of plant life. The ratio of two oxygen isotopes in carbon dioxide indicated to researchers how long the CO2 had been in the atmosphere and how fast it had passed through plants. They were able to estimate the global rate of photosynthesis is about 25 percent faster than thought. — Kendra Hartmann

with Vincent Andrunas The Country Friends’ 56th annual Art of Fashion event, held Sept. 22 at The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe, honored the late Luba Johnston (fondly remembered as the grande dame of Rancho Santa Fe), as well as Priscilla Webb — both longtime Country Friends members and pillars of the community. The event is the organization’s largest fundraiser, financing their support of human care agencies throughout San Diego County. This year’s show, chaired by Mia Stefanko and produced in partnership with South Coast Plaza, featured fashions from the fall and winter collections of some of the world’s most stylish designers. A shade-cloth canopy covered the dual runways and seating area, and the weather was somewhat cooler than usual, much to the guests’ delight. The 35-minute show displayed a variety of looks in rapid succession. When one model’s shoe broke early in her runway trip, she picked it up and bravely completed her circuit on one very high stiletto and the toes of one bare foot (with a raised ankle) — so skillfully accomplished that many spectators never noticed the missing shoe. A post-show “Aprés Affaire” featured boutique shopping, a tasting of fine Falkner wines and cheese and dessert buffets.

That evening at the U.S. Grant Hotel, the “Legends Behind the Badge” gala fundraiser for the San Diego Police Historical Association (SDPHA) began with cocktails, appetizers and a big silent auction. During the dinner program, La Jolla Village News real estate writer Nancy Gardner was sworn in as a new SDPHA commis-

sioner, as were Veronica Engle, Maxine Gellens, Tom Groff, Robert Kanaski, John Schneidmiller, Leonard Simpson and Dr. Jack Wasserman. La Jolla resident and top-level commissioner Ramin Pourteymour, who chaired the event along with SDPD Chief William Lansdowne, was also a frequent and generous bidder on many live-auction items and donated the highest ($5,000) support pledge. Geni Cavitt and Chargers safety Steve Gregory served as emcees. Welldeserved awards were conferred on prominent community members, including famed author Joseph Wambaugh, a San Diego resident and former LAPD detective. Lansdowne, given a Lifetime Achievement Award, responded with a sensitive and stirring speech. He revealed that his 45year police career was preceded by a shorter stint as a car thief. Fortunately, he wasn’t very good at it. At 16, he had taken a neighbor’s car, but only got three blocks. Rather than hauling him to juvenile hall, the arresting officer took him home and set him straight, nipping a potential criminal career in the bud and inspiring what has become a lifelong dedication to police work. Perhaps this story explains why each gala guest was given a Get Out of Jail Free card (“for entertainment purposes only,” the fine print warned).

required). The program included short videos showing VFC’s work, including the moving story of Zach, who’d been through many foster homes before finding his “forever family.” He later appeared onstage with his adoptive parents and his CASA, Jenna. Their VFC-facilitated success story inspired generous bidding during the live auction, after which auctioneer Bill Menish announced that the event had grossed more than $1 million. Strauss’ Pamplemousse Grille served up a truly gourmet dinner featuring beef filet and dessert platters laden with seven sweet selections. The evening rocked on with a high-octane performance by the criticallyacclaimed Neil Diamond tribute band, Super Diamond. Guests listened and danced to such hits as “Sweet Caroline,” Cherry, Cherry” and the night’s theme song, “Heartlight.”

Voices for Children (VFC) helps foster children find their “forever families” and trains volunteer court appointed special advocates (CASAs) to serve as voices for children in court.

DINING IN AND AROUND

LA JOLLA

Donovan’s Steak House They may look good enough to eat, but the paintings and sculptures at Donovan’s of La Jolla are strictly off limits – so you’ll have to content yourself with the USDA prime beef, the eatery’s star attraction. If steak isn’t in the plan, pork and veal chops and succulent seafood will satisfy the most discriminating of palates. And at Donovan’s, fresh seasonal vegetables and your choice of potato are always included with each entrée.

Cafe Milano Owner/Chef Pasquale Cianni, brought Northern Italian cuisine to La Jolla 12 years ago & has been successfully pleasing both local residents & out of towners, even out of the country guests, with his home made pappardelle pasta, veal ossobuco, lobster ravioli and other many authentic Italian dishes. Cafe Milano offers your palate an exciting & incredible experience for the whole family at affordable prices. Early Bird Special: 4:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. and choose a select soup or salad, menu entrée, and dessert for $17.95.

NINA ROSOFF

Shores resident pens book on leadership When longtime La Jolla Shores resident Nina Rosoff decided she wanted to share her philosophies about paradox and leadership with the world, she pulled out all the stops and stayed determined until her name finally ended up on a book cover. With no agent, she spent four and a half years perfecting a 30-page proposal about how to be a leader during uncertain times and she had 16 meetings with editors until Routledge presented itself as the perfect publishing match. “I wrote every bloody word myself,” she said. “I didn't want anyone to put their own spin on it. I just wanted someone to check for grammar.” Deal sealed. Next step? Writing her first book. Rosoff's book, “The Power of Paradox: The Protean Leader and Leading in Uncertain Times,” wasn't written in the

most conventional manner. “I wrote the whole book on yellow, lined paper,” said the author. “It had arrows and scribbles and scratches.” She mailed her life's work in a cardboard box to her secretary friend in Dallas. “I just prayed it would get there safely,” she said. So what exactly is a “protean leader” — the basis of her book? “Protean goes back to mythology,” said Rosoff. Proteus was an early sea god, also knows as “The Old Man of the Sea,” and from his transforming nature and multifarious aspects comes the adjective “protean.” In Rosoff’s book, she examines seven leadership paradoxes that she has observed in her years working with leaders of Fortune 500 companies and universities nationwide. “An example of a paradox,” said Rosoff, “is the fact that technology keeps us connected but it also disconnects us.” One thing that Rosoff emphasizes in the book is that leaders don't know how to deal with uncertainty. “It's a leader's job to know,” she said. “Leaders feel like they have to have the right answers, but they must embrace ambiguity in order to manage complexity.” Rosoff said her book could apply to executives, professors, carpenters, hairdressers, parents or any other position that requires leadership. It’s about “getting to the end of your life holding a bag of dreams fulfilled, not regrets,” she said. For more information on the book, visit www.routledge.com/9780415875110. — Staff

NEWS Toyota pitches lease of beach vehicles BY NEAL PUTNAM | VILLAGE NEWS

Toyota vehicles cruising along San Diego beaches may be featured in two television commercials if the full City Council gives the go-ahead for a marketing partnership that would make Toyota the “official vehicle of San Diego lifeguards” with a free, two-year lease of 34 vehicles. “It’s a fabulous idea,” said District 7 Councilwoman Marti Emerald. The proposal was heard Sept. 21 by the council’s Budget and Finance Committee, which voted 3-0 on Emerald’s motion to send the proposal to the full City Council for possible adoption. Also voting in favor were councilmembers Sherri Lightner and Todd Gloria. The Japanese automaker has proposed allowing the city to use 34 of the 2012 vehicles at no cost for two years, a financial value placed in a City Hall report at between $555,000 to $1.1 million. The city would also have an option to buy the vehicles at the end of the two years, according to the proposal. The estimated savings of using these vehicles for free ranges from more than $491,000 to more than $982,000, depending on the actual agreement. City lifeguards might appear in the two television commercials, but the committee was told that Toyota is more interested in seeing Toyotas on the beach as the city lifeguards’ “official vehicle” and brand name, rather than focusing on the individuals behind the wheel. No specific beach area was mentioned as to where the commercials might be made. Toyota would reimburse the city for the cost of staff time for filming and/or recording commercials or other activities. Two radio ads are also suggested in the proposal, along with public service announcements. The city would have final approval of all content before use by Toyota, according to the city report. Toyota has suggested promotional events at city facilities and “Water Safety Days” sponsorships at Toyota dealerships. Toyota would also like to be mentioned on the city’s website and also do direct marketing to city employees and other groups. The City Council is expected to hear the proposal in October or November.

A tasty way to benefit LJHS The Foundation of La Jolla High School (LJHS) will host its 12th annual “Taste of La Jolla” on Oct. 11 to benefit LJHS. More than 20 of La Jolla’s finest restaurants, pizza shops, burger joints, breweries and even ice cream parlors are participating in the gourmet taste tour, providing participants with samples of specialties from their menus for a good cause. Check-in for the event will begin at 5:30 p.m. at the Chase Bank, located at 7777 Girard Ave. From there, participants can take off for a progressive tour of La Jolla’s tasty hors d’oeuvres at participating restaurants. Despite the small plate servings, past attendees have said the specially prepared dishes add up to quite a satisfying and fulfilling dinner at the end of the night. Since the Foundation’s inception of the Taste of La Jolla in 2000, volunteers have raised more than $200,000 for the high school. Funds raised at the event are used to insulate LJHS from deep budget cuts that threaten faculty and staff positions, the availability of textbooks, critical supplies, course offerings, sports programs and maintenance to the school. Tickets are $45 in advance and $50 at the event. To purchase tickets, call (858) 5511250 or visit www.ljhs.sandi.net/foundation. — Mariko Lamb
