Annual walking feast helps LJ high school

BY ADRIANE TILLMAN | VILLAGE NEWS

Trick-or-treat has arrived early for adults in La Jolla.

Twenty-five restaurants will open their doors to offer sample platters of short ribs, seasonal soups, handcrafted beer, cookies and cakes in a walking feast on Oct. 12 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. — Taste of La Jolla has arrived.

The Foundation of La Jolla High School organizes Taste of La Jolla to boost its general fund to benefit the high school. Organizers expect to sell 600 tickets and raise $25,000 this year.

“It’s an important fundraiser

for the school… but it’s also an important event for our local restaurants,” event chair Christina Andrews said. “How else in one night can they get 500 La Jollans, who like to go out to eat, to stop by their restaurant and sample their signature dish? It’s truly a win/win for everybody.”

Trick-or-treaters can expect to fill their bellies with morsels like coca nib short ribs over truffled potatoes at the Steakhouse at Azul, assorted antipasti from Prep Kitchen, prime rib sliders SEE FEAST, Page 2

Landslide homeowners go back to square one

BY SEBASTIAN RUIZ | VILLAGE NEWS

For residents of the 65 homes affected by the 2007 landslide along Soledad Mountain Road, a ruling in their case against the city leaves them without compensation, and in some cases without a home, while potentially saving the city millions.

A Superior Court judge ruled last week that the city is not liable for damage sustained by homes during the landslide that

occurred Oct. 3, 2007. The slide caused the evacuation, condemnation and eventual demolition of several homes.

The court remained unconvinced that water from damaged pipes caused the earth to shift underneath homes. The decision could save the city a lot of money.

“It’s all a little bit unclear and a lot of it was… speculative, but we could’ve been exposed to tens of SEE LANDSLIDE, Page 3

Shores project brings PDO to forefront

BY ADRIANE TILLMAN | VILLAGE NEWS

Plans to build a three-story, mixed-used building on Avenida de la Playa in La Jolla Shores have reanimated concerns about the Shores’ Planned District Ordinance (PDO), its blueprint for growth.

On Oct. 1, the La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) rejected, by a vote of 14-1, property owner Bob Whitney’s plans to demolish two one-story buildings at 2202 and 2206 Avenida de la Playa. Plans called for build-

ing a three-story structure with 2,300 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor, an underground parking structure and two upstairs residential units for a total 9,228-square-foot development. La Jolla Kayak and a vacation rental unit currently occupy the space.

The La Jolla Permit Review Committee, meanwhile, had determined the Whitney project conformed to the PDO’s commercial zone and design principals the week before by a 3-1-1 vote.

“It’s probably one of the more

difficult projects that we’ve seen because the PDO is so indefinite about what you can do and not do that it becomes subjective,” LJCPA President Joe LaCava said.

“With this PDO, it’s [so] uncertain what integrates or fits into the plan and what is the scale that 10 people will have 10 different opinions.”

LaCava believes the turning point for the trustees came when the architect said he met with concerned neighbors but did not SEE PDO, Page 3

‘Creditors’ comes to collect at Playhouse

indicate he had modified the design. Property owner Whitney said it was “untrue” to say he had not modified his design.

“The neighbor to the east of us asked us to move the wall further back and we did,” Whitney said.

LaCava agreed that the project’s architectural style and grading did not fit with the character of the neighborhood.

“It’s too big, too boxy and maxes out the development capacity of the property,” LaCava said. “It didn’t integrate with the feel of the Shores community.”

Next-door neighbor to the project and La Jolla architect Dale Naegle has been a vocal opponent of the project. Naegle said the scale of the Whitney project violates the character of the community.

“I think the style is imitating architectural elements that are not compatible with what’s been done over the years, which is our tradition,” Naegle said. “It’s what we’ve done that is attractive to the world, that we aren’t trying to be something that we aren’t. What we’ve arrived at is something genuine and not artificial.”

Whitney had originally hired Naegle to draw up plans for the building, which Whitney said were “very similar in size and scope but aesthetically were quite different.”

“I think the main opposition is coming from the neighbor,” Whitney said, referring to Naegle. “When we saw his concep-

millions of dollars if we would’ve been found liable,” said Alex Roth, a spokesman for Mayor Jerry Sanders. “[The homeowners] went through a horrendous ordeal and they deserve everyone’s sympathies.”

But while the city may be off the hook for now, attorney Michael Hearn, representing 16 families affected by the tragedy, said an appeal is not out of the question.

He said experts pointed to “four failures” in the city’s water line during 2007 but ultimately failed to prove the breaks caused the slide.

For virtually all of his clients, compensation from the city would have be the only way to recoup at least some of what was lost, he said.

“They [homeowners] had no assistance from their own insurance. So I feel very sorry for those folks — they lost their home and there’s nobody there to help them,” Hearn said. “I say virtually all of them because it does not look like any one of them will get insurance money to help reestablish a home for them.”

Hearn’s firm was part of a team representing 65 homes affected by the landslide.

Ernest Ledterman, a 91-year-old resident of the 5800 hundred block of Soledad Mountain Road, lives an estimated 50 yards from a condemned home. He said he’s not surprised insurance companies would not compensate. The retired engineer and geologist said he was aware of the potential instability of the soil on the hill when he purchased his home during the early 1960s. He said his insurance company used to cover and compensate residents for small slides.

“Once they wised up to what was happening, they excluded that [cover-

tual drawings, it wasn’t the direction we wanted to go.”

Naegle said that his architectural plan included balconies and setbacks, and was “fresh and contemporary.”

“It was everything that we want to try to get him to do but he didn’t want to do it,” he said.

In La Jolla, Naegle has designed the Coast Walk building on Prospect Street, home to The Crabcatcher, the John Muir dormitory and student center at UCSD and Windemere homes on Mount Soledad, among other projects.

Whitney, a resident of La Jolla since 1972, said he was “disappointed” with the LJCPA’s decision. He said he plans to sell his house down the block and move into the upstairs condo with his wife, which he envisions eventually passing on to his children. Whitney said the buildings he will demolish

are 50 years old and need to be replaced.

“I believe it’s a neighborhood that is going to be changing,” Whitney said. “There are a lot of buildings like mine that are 50 years old.”

The LJCPA’s recommendation will be taken into consideration when the city’s Planning Commission hears the project.

Update on lifeguard stations Construction on the new lifeguard station at the Children’s Pool is expected to begin in September 2010. The former lifeguard station was condemned last summer. Construction on the La Jolla Shores lifeguard station could begin as early as January 2010, otherwise will commence in September 2010.

Ledterman admits his home has several cracks, which he believes stem from moving earth beneath his home on the hill.

“So if your home slides down, that’s it,” Ledterman said. “I just don’t think about the cracks.”

While the city may have potentially saved millions in compensation so far, the city has already forked over millions to the outside firm representing the city during trial.

“As of May 31 of this year, the Butz Dunn & DeSantis law firm had been paid attorneys’ fees in the amount of $2,067,372.43 and $367,058.40 in cost reimbursements,” said Geena Coburn, a representative with the San Diego City Attorney’s Office, in a written statement.

That figure does not include trial and trial preparation and there are additional billings that would cover costs incurred after May 31, but they have either not been submitted or paid, she wrote.

A representative of the firm did not immediately return calls requesting comment. Though Soledad Mountain Road currently remains open, scars of the past evidenced by an empty lot, a home deemed inhabitable and San Diego Gas and Electric crews setting up electrical poles and wires are still visible up and down the street. ■

Seven years after opening its doors to the public, the Coggan Family Aquatic Complex on the La Jolla High School campus continues to make waves with its annual Splash Bash fund-raiser and celebration. This year’s event is Sunday, Oct. 11, from noon to 4 p.m. at 800 Nautilus St. And with costly capital maintenance projects due in a few years, the foundation running the pool needs to raise a tidal wave of cash to keep it afloat.

“It’s basically a fund-raiser but it’s also a celebration,” said Gary Felt, La Jolla Aquatic Complex Foundation president. “It’s quite a crowd and a family [oriented] type of event.”

Hundreds gather by the pool every year for a day of music, food and floating fun on inflatable rafts and inner tubes. The $5 entrance fee helps cover operational costs and utility bills.

Live rock ’n’ roll, an inflatable Viking ship, a surf simulator and an inflatable jumper for kids will keep the boat rocking as parents and neighbors put down hot dogs, mini-burgers, homemade sausages and other delights from local food shops.

The “swim-athon” winners will also leave with prizes like digital cameras and iPods.

Because it’s home to La Jolla High School’s water polo and swim teams, many believe the pool belongs to the school but it doesn’t, Felt said.

umbrella several years ago, the district flushed the idea, effectively washing its hands of the responsibility.

With most community pools subsidized by government or private groups, the foundation stays above water all by itself, if just barely.

The public pool runs on membership fees, pool parties, summer camp fees and other service fees to cover costs, Felt said.

But it’s only within the last two years that the foundation broke even on its estimated $500,000 to $600,000 budget, he said. The Splash Bash pours about $25,000 to $50,000 a year into thirsty coffers, he said.

With maintenance costs just over the horizon, Felt said the foundation must raise about $1 million over the next few years for future plastering and other capital main-

tenance projects.

Recent years’ bashes have aquatics director Randy Frankie optimistic about this year’s turnout.

“The community, I think, loves the pool and really appreciates it that we now have it,” Frankie said.

In the past, the local community wanted a pool for a long time, he said. Early in the decade, the Coggan family made an initial donation of about $1 million to get the pool and other school-related capital projects going. Eventually a nonprofit foundation formed, complete with a board of directors.

Now, “people wouldn’t remember a time when we didn’t have it here. So you gotta take care of it,” he said.

Founders of the popular La Jolla farmers market have organized a two-day art and wine festival on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 10 and 11, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. to benefit La Jolla’s elementary schools.

A jury has selected more than 150 artists in various mediums — oil painting, watercolors, sculpture and jewelry — from Southern California and Northern Baja to showcase their work that ranges from affordable to expensive in price.

Dancers and musicians will perform onstage, including Eveoke Dance Theater, Stage 7 School of Dance and the San Diego School of Performing Arts.

Resident Sherry Ahern envisioned the art festival as a way to support the local schools and artists, boost the village economy and bring art into the village.

Ahern wants to draw La Jolla back to its roots as an art community. She recalls as a child in the 1960s when artists bearing easels flocked to the village. La Jolla made its mark as an art community in 1894 when Anna Held established the Green Dragon Colony, a cluster of cottages that housed a community of artists from across the country.

“We want to celebrate that heritage, while presenting a unique and contemporary festival combining the creativity and sophisti-

cation of today’s artists,” Ahern said.

Ahern said volunteers have rallied around the art festival; the committee is 50 members strong with Jana Purdy acting as event coordinator. The art and wine festival aims to raise $100,000 for La Jolla, Torrey Pines and Bird Rock elementary schools and draw a minimum of 5,000 people to the festival.

The festivities will also feature a wine and beer garden featuring area breweries and vineyards, as well as a children’s art center and SEE FESTIVAL, Page 7

Back in Charge!’ author Ahern to speak at Warwick’s

BY NICOLE SOURS LARSON | VILLAGE NEWS

If you’ve ever struggled to control your negative thought patterns, change unwanted behavior or wondered why affirmations seem not to work for you, then the techniques that area psychologist and life coach Dr. Adrianne Ahern presents in her new book, “Back in Charge: A Guide to Harnessing the Magic of Your Brain to Create the Life You’ll Love,” may provide the breakthrough you’ve been seeking.

Ahern, who grew up in La Jolla and El Centro and now makes her home in Del Mar, will be speaking and signing books on Wednesday, Oct. 14 at 7:30 p.m. at Warwick’s Books, 7812 Girard Ave. She will preview several exercises she offers in her book.

A clinical psychologist for more than 15 years who began her career working with the severely mentally ill and families of addicts, Ahern joined Scripps Mercy Hospital in 1994 and shifted her focus to working with relatively healthy individuals who wanted to become more effective in their lives.

Through her work at Scripps and in her private practice she realized she could apply recent neuroscience and psychophysiology research and neurofeedback to help patients “rewire their brains” to alter the limiting beliefs and negative conditioning that had become hard-wired into the brain through constant repetition.

“I left Scripps because I realized I wanted to help people change their patterns and help them live the path that they were meant to live,” she said.

DR. ADRIANNE AHERN PSYCHOLOGIST/AUTHOR

Clinical psychologist Adrianne Ahern, who grew up in La Jolla, will be at Warwick’s Oct. 14 to talk about her new book, “Back in Charge.”

VILLAGE NEWS | NICOLE SOURS LARSON

Moving to Reno in 2001 to focus on her research and writing, she developed the four-step program she debuted in her first book, “Snap Out of It Now: Four Steps to Inner Joy,” which she expands upon in the recently published “Back in Charge!”

These techniques were showcased in the PBS special “Snap Out of It Now!” that ran on KPBS-TV in August and at affiliates throughout the country.

Her new book includes two audio CDs with exercises as a companion to the book. These techniques to rewire the brain are effective in helping people meet goals in every life aspect, including employment, relationships, health, love and wealth.

“My system is particularly beneficial to people who have not been successful using positive thinking or affirmations,” Ahern said.

“Affirmations can work, but not when you have an internal saboteur who dismisses your efforts.

No matter how may times you repeat, ‘I am a loving, deserving, wonderful person,’ you won’t get anywhere if an internal voice is countering with, ‘Oh, yeah, I’m really an unpopular, unattractive loser.’”

In her book she provides the tools, strategies and exercises needed to rewire the neuro-pathways of the brain to transform previously limiting beliefs and attitudes into supportive ones. Among her clients are athletes, business

people and others seeking to change established behavior, experience life fully and achieve enhanced performance.

“When we can change a thought pattern and activate another feeling and activity, we can change the pattern and the behavior,” she said.

A key element in Ahern’s practical approach is asking what she calls “the obnoxious question: does this reaction really serve me?”

Sometimes, she explained, we may be justified in our anger or our emotional reaction to a situation or a loved one’s behavior, but expressing that emotion may not help us advance to our goal.

Growing up the fourth of five children in a “big, boisterous Irish family,” Ahern described herself as a therapist from an early age as she tried to make sense of her family’s interrelationships. She discovered psychology relatively late, at 27, after meeting her husband, prominent psychiatrist Dr. Barry Grundland. Previously she had studied linguistics at UCLA and worked briefly in her family’s seed business in El Centro.

The Facts. Period.

Even without understanding the neuroscience of the brain, you can experience how to harness its power through this simple, practical exercise.

Whenever you hear news or experience something that usually throws you into reaction (anxiety, anger, uncertainty, guilt, etc.), pause, restate the facts, and add a forceful “period” to the end of it. Don’t allow your brain to speculate or follow its normal path of anxious thoughts. Just state the facts neutrally, then say “period.”

Try this out for yourself: “The stock market is faltering.

Period.” “I didn’t go to the gym this week. Period.” “I can’t afford to go out to eat. Period.”

By cutting off your brain’s typical dialogue, you reclaim your place of choice. You’ll find yourself responding to life’s situations more creatively and positively. And you’ll feel better!

— Adrianne Ahern Once she discovered psychology, she knew she had found her life’s work and proceeded to earn two master’s degrees and a doctorate from the California School of Professional Psychology in Berkeley/Alameda.

In addition to her book-signing at Warwick’s, Ahern presents workshops and speeches, many of which are open to the public and are listed on her Website, www.snapoutofitnow.com. Her private practice is located in Carmel Valley at 11622 El Camino Real, Suite 100, (858) 764-2422. ■

Put shelter downtown, and be quick about it

BY MARTIN JONES WESTLIN

o look at the official record, you’d have thought Mayor Jerry Sanders’ latest call for suitable homeless shelter locales had gone in one ear, slipped on the wax and exited butt-first down the same canal. Not a single one of the eight City Council members had offered the mayor a potential site in their districts by the end of business on Monday, Sept. 21, Sanders’ original deadline. Since then, seven of ’em, including downtown representative Kevin Faulconer, managed a reply to the mayor, which is at least something — still, the councilmembers had no suggestions for an appropriate permanent location, and that’s a dismaying state of affairs indeed.

It’s dismaying because council has been grappling with this question for a decade and then some. Back in the ’90s, when Susan Golding was mayor, San Diego County’s homeless numbered about 5,000, and Golding was instrumental in establishing a shelter at that time. But just as she allegedly didn’t mention homelessness in her 2000 State of the City speech, the issue has been punted between the mayor’s office and council chambers since then, with no clear outcome.

Meanwhile, according to the Regional Task Force on the Homeless San Diego, the county’s homeless population has doubled — this amid council’s latest round of inaction.

In opposing a temporary shelter downtown this year, Faulconer reportedly wrote in his reply that “I look forward to offering lasting services that will benefit the homeless population, as well as our neighbors and business owners downtown.”

That’s fine and dandy for the intermediate and long term — but winter and its attendant rains will be here in about 15 minutes, and that leaves precious little time to approve a site, forge a plan, find the money and get 10,000 people (or a portion thereof) settled in.

But since downtown serves as a regional city center, it seems the most expedient locale in which to address this immediate, very regional

T

LA JOLLA

issue (remember, the current 10,000 homeless exist throughout the county, not just in San Diego’s core).

Faulconer noted that downtown has a “disproportionate” number of services of which the homeless can take advantage — but disproportionate or not, those services are already there and can serve in part to alleviate homelessness. There’s an insidious benefit to a downtown shelter as well: The vast concentration of city-center businesses will grow as the recession heads out and fullscale development resumes, and the able-bodied homeless would thus have a tailormade infrastructure at their doorstep through which they could extricate themselves from their plight.

Sanders has said that his office will now propose several sites in each district, picking up where the reluctant councilmembers left off — but the shelter’s importance to the community, of course, trumps any decision on its locale. Just ask Dr. Jim Dunford, city medical director and UCSD emergency physician, who in 2006 reportedly told The New Yorker magazine all about the people such a shelter often serves: “ . . .

[I]t’s the guy who falls down and hits his head who ends up costing you at least $50,000. Meanwhile, they are going through alcoholic withdrawal and have devastating liver disease that only adds to their inability to fight infections. There is no end to the issues. We do this huge drill.

We run up big lab fees, and the nurses want to quit because they see the same guys come in over and over, and all we’re doing is making them capable of walking down the block.”

Unless, of course, the shelter’s placed downtown. The center city’s glut of services will give the shelter’s patrons a fighting chance at mainstream life, at least theoretically. And in any event, by the time you read this, that 15-minute window between now and the day the rains set in has just dwindled to 12.

Teach your children well We all remember the stillrecent tragedy of the little group of young men from Bird Rock and La Jolla who ended up convicted on a variety of criminal charges including murder in the needless death of another young La Jolla man. What have we learned from this incident?

Very little, judging from what I witnessed the other day at a bluff overlooking the beach. A young father was instructing his two sons on throwing rocks from the top of the bluff — never a good idea, since they couldn’t see whether or not there was anyone below. As I came closer, the man was telling his children, “That’s what we do to surfers we don’t like — we throw rocks at them.”

Unless we can find some way to inject common sense into people, senseless violence will continue to ruin lives. Parents, please! Teach your children well.

Correction The story in last week’s paper (page 1) about a change of judges for the Children’s Pool case did not correctly state the name of the new judge, Timothy Taylor.

From the driveway, I phoned my husband to tell him to stand by, because there was a strange truck parked in front of our home. I checked inside our house, then approached the truck, and saw a woman seated inside. When I asked why she was there, she responded brusquely that “I was sitting here in the shade reading my book, but if you want me to leave, I will” and drove away.

I didn’t think much of it, but then I opened the Village News and read about the armed robber. The description of the robber Winston Davis in your article matches the La Jolla description of the woman I had just spoken to — a blond, heavier woman in her early 50s, probably around 5’4”, wearing glasses.

tions against the potentially deadly swine flu by washing hands frequently and getting a flu shot, but my proposal is more radical — a ban on handshaking.

My idea will undoubtedly be met with skepticism as shaking hands is a longstanding tradition associated with friendliness and cordiality. In a world where people spend hours facing a computer screen and have increasingly less personal contact with others, some will think this rude, outrageous, even preposterous. But in light of a potential flu pandemic, there is reason to change this antedated custom.

Man bludgeoned, killed in UC apartment A University City woman called police at 1:14 a.m. on Oct. 7 to report that her 24-year-old son had attacked his father. According to police reports, the woman heard a disturbance in their apartment located on the 9100 block of Judicial Drive.

When she checked, she saw her son attacking his father, who was bludgeoned to death, police reported.

Officers arrived within minutes of the call and took the suspect into custody.

“The preliminary investigation has only revealed there was a disturbance between the father son,” wrote Lt. Ernie Herbert with the Homicide Unit in a press release. “The motive for the attack is unknown at this time.”

The victim’s name is being withheld while police notify his entire family.

Police are asking witnesses with information about the murder to call the Homicide Unit, (619) 531-2293. ■

he’s engaged with the inhabitant of the other room, Gustav (T. Ryder Smith), who — in the short time the two men have been acquainted — has become confidant and artistic mentor, persuading Adolf to switch from painting to sculpting. Part of the fascination is figuring out exactly what is going on and what motivates Gustav. The conversation is very nearly that of 19th century shrink (Freud had yet to come to prominence) and patient, as Gustav draws out Adolf’s insecurities and fears in a discussion of art, sex and women’s place in society and marriage. The suggestion is that Tekla cannot be trusted and must be unfaithful. Adolf is easily persuaded and manipulated.

Judging by the number of

wheelchairs and reclining lounge chairs, the hotel is quite obviously a place where the wealthy go during the warm weather to recuperate from the vicissitudes of city life. A breeze wafts through the sheer curtains that admit light and a daylong view of the shore.

Eventually Tekla arrives, flushed and exhilarated by her visit to town.

She is as yet unacquainted with the man in the neighboring room, but soon he engages her in conversation, purposely arranging for Adolf to observe and hear. The entire piece, which takes place in the course of one afternoon, embodies the attitudes of an era in which people were expected to act in ways proscribed by their society. Obviously, these three have broken all the rules.

antibacterial lotion. As someone with a compromised immune system, I submit this letter to advocate for our children, our frail elderly and those with invisible illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes and chronic fatigue syndrome.

There is no benign flu. My friend’s 13-year-old diabetic son was just diagnosed with the swine flue and he was up all night throwing up, a dangerous situation for someone with diabetes. Another friend had been bedbound for weeks with this virulent flu.

Banning handshakes would be pragmatic and self protective, not anti-social.

Furthermore, shaking hands should be prohibited in healthcare settings. Medical professionals are rushed; despite best intentions they may not always have time to clean their hands between patients.

We should substitute germ-free greetings such as bows, borrowing from the Japanese, or use the Indian greeting, Namaste. Hands are pressed together in front of the heart and the head bowed downward. Another alternative would be saluting. If saluting is good enough for the military, why not the rest of us? Or we could patriotically hold your right hand over our heart as in the pledge of allegiance.

Abolishing handshakes would be awkward initially, but worth it to stay healthier. I put forth this suggestion in earnest. Just say no to handshakes.

SPORTS briefs Netters ace strong start to season Strong girls tennis teams are not a surprise locally, and that tradition continues this fall.

At La Jolla High School, the Lady Vikings under head coach Maggie Mulkins head into action this week with an overall record of 4-2 (3-1 Western League).

Key players to date have included Alison Klein, Rozel Hernandez, Nathaly Moungvong and Allie Rubens.

“The season is going well,” Mulkins commented. “We are young and still working on some nuances of the game, but overall a real strong performance.

Expectations are high for finishing our season strong.”

At The Bishop’s School, the Lady Knights led by head coach

Mariel DeYoung headed into play this week at 5-1.

Key players to date have been Bianca Pham, Nicole Sadowsky, Amy Hoagland, Camilla Johnston and Rebecca Lass.

“So far, we are off to a good start this season,” DeYoung commented. “We had a big win this week (last week) against Francis Parker and it will give us more confidence as we move forward.”

La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School kept rolling on the gridiron last weekend, posting a 49-8 Pacific League victory over Mt. Empire High School. The win puts LJCD’s league record at 1-0 and its overall record at 3-1.

After the Torreys started slowly, they quickly regained their poise and scored touchdowns on their next seven possessions.

Senior quarterback Derek Hatfield began his campaign for a third straight all-league QB selection by hitting on 8-of-12 passes for 106 yards and two touchdowns (17, 10 yards). Hatfield also rushed for 44 yards and two TDs on five carries.

Senior tailback Montell Allen pounded out 117 yards on 15 carries, while junior tailback Frankie Brown rushed for 62 yards, including a 23-yard TD scamper. Freshman back Sage Burmeister added a three-yard TD on the ground, while senior receiver Conner Gerhart led all receivers with 49 yards on two catches. Junior tight end Mical Bailey caught three passes for 37 yards and two TDs (17, 10 yards).

On defense, Bailey led the way with three sacks and seven tackles, while Allen had six tackles, Ian Han made five and Junior Togiaso added four.

In junior varsity action, LJCD stayed unbeaten (4-0), posting a 56-0 win over Mt. Empire.

Elsewhere, The Bishop’s School got back on the winning track with a 52-12 triumph over Tijuana Federal Prep.

“It was nice to get back on the

winning side of things,” Bishop’s head coach Joel Allen remarked. “I told my kids before the game that good teams don’t lose two in a row. I was proud of how hard they came out and played.”

Allen said the team’s defense played very well and limited its opponents to trying to produce yardage through the air.

Allen noted that senior captain Alex Carillo played extremely well at nose guard and really shut down the middle of the line, while Austin Fisher, who played left tackle for the first three games, was moved to full back and really took advantage of the opportunity. Fisher rushed 10 times for 100 yards and three TDs on the day.

Playing his first game at quarterback, Hector Eribez threw for 85 yards and added another 80 yards rushing.

In other action, La Jolla fell to Santa Fe Christian, 42-21.

“They (Santa Fe Christian) were able to control the game on the ground, and although we were only down 21-14 entering the fourth quarter, they were able to break the game open down the stretch,” La Jolla High head coach Rey Hernandez noted.

La Jolla’s points came on the ground as Tyler Bassler scored twice and QB Zac Zlatic scored the other touchdown. According to Hernandez, backup QB Cory Wagner did a good job driving the Vikings downfield for the team’s final score.

“We’re hoping our tough nonleague schedule will help us be better prepared once we start league in two weeks,” Hernandez remarked. “Three of our first four opponents have a combined record of 13-1.”

La Jolla’s next contest is at home on Friday, Oct. 16, when the Vikings host Hoover High. ■

Senior Alex Fleischhacker (18:14, 14th) and sophomore Jake Mack (18:41, 23rd) completed the scoring, while juniors Phillip Poyhonen (19:16, 35th) and Oliver Hamilton (19:37, 41st) rounded out LJCD’s top seven.

“Lee, Noah, Jake, Phillip and Oliver all ran personal bests for this course, something we’ll hopefully be able to say again after CIF,” LJCD head coach Scott Sanders commented.

The junior varsity boys,

missing several runners to illness, also ran well, finishing third overall.

On the varsity girls side, LJCD’s young squad continues to gain experience and show promise, finishing seventh overall of 12 teams.

Sophomore Sam Staszak (15th, 19:37) bested her CIF time from last year despite missing two weeks with a sprained ankle and a week to illness.

Freshman Lily Wolfenzon (27th), sophomores Maggie Taylor (29th) and Alina Wong (49th) and senior Lisa Felber (53rd) also scored for the Lady Torreys.

“We’re very pleased with these results, especially given that the entire high school was on experiential education trips last week and very few runners were able to train,” Sanders added. ■

Girl golfers tee off on success

BY DAVE THOMAS | VILLAGE NEWS

The local scholastic girls golf season continues to produce good results for a number of local teams.

At La Jolla High, head coach Allen Merryman and the Lady Vikings scored a recent 274-292 victory over Scripps Ranch High. The win snapped Scripps’ unbeaten streak on the season.

Juliette Garay (medalist) shot a 37, while Jordan Atnip and Jasmine Graze carded a 57 each. .

“We had a tremendous team performance and near-perfect score lead by Juliette Garay with a solid 37 beating their number one by 15 strokes,” Merryman commented. “We also had a great effort from Maura Kanter and Elyssa Kanter in team three with an 11-stroke lead.”

In action the next day, La Jolla (8-2) shot its best round thus far at Torrey

Pines, defeating Coronado 265-275.

Team number one of Garay (medalist 39) and Alexis Tarakjian led the Lady Vikes by 15 strokes, with Graze shooting a 53.

According to Merryman, it was “another outstanding team performance overall.”

Elsewhere, The Bishop’s School dropped a 200-231 decision to Francis Parker in action last week.

Courtney Hooton turned in the top score for the Lady Knights with a 40, while teammate Spenser Krut turned in a 42.

Krut recently shot a 69 in the first round at the SCPGA Toyota Tour Cup. In order to be able to compete in this league, players must qualify and be invited to register.

Krut then had a strong second round and went on to finish tied for first place out of 28 girls from all over California.

At La Jolla Country Day (LJCD)

School, the Lady Torreys under head coach Bill Cahoone saw action in three matches last week.

In a 313-347 victory over Escondido Charter, LJCD was led by freshman Kristen Mizutani, who scored her first round in the thirties with a 39, while junior Brooke Mehregany posted a 56 to finish second.

In action the next day, LJCD scored a 298-336 victory over Horizon Christian.

Mehregany (50), Mizutani (50) and senior Jennie Kim (57) were low scores for the match.

In its final match of the week, LJCD scored its third win in a rematch with Escondido Charter, rolling 272-320.

Mizutani was match medalist with a 44, while LJCD also got strong performances from Jennie Kim (54), junior Frances Kim (55), and sophomores Alex Levine (58), and Natash Moss (61). ■

Planners OK Scripps Hospital project

BY ADRIANE TILLMAN | VILLAGE NEWS

Scripps Memorial Hospital on Genesee Avenue received city permission to move forward with its plans to build two hospital towers and a medical office building to replace the current hospital building that does not meet state seismic codes.

The city’s Planning Commission unanimously approved the building plans on Sept. 17. City Council will not review the plans since no one appealed the project.

Scripps plans to build two 313,000-square-foot hospital towers and a 141,400-square-

Towers’ toppling seems ill-timed

BY MARTIN JONES WESTLIN | VILLAGE NEWS

The San Diego Padres decided to get real fun again in the last half of the season, and their rebirth augurs well for 2010.

Field manager Bud Black promised improvements in the team’s overall record this year, and although 87 losses is tough to take, it sure beats the hell out of the 99 the team racked up in 2008. After the All-Star break,

the Padres were 39-35; beforehand, they ran up a 36-52 tally.

The good news from the season’s latter stages was tempered with the Oct. 3 firing of Kevin Towers, at 14 years’ service the longest-tenured general manager with a single team in the bigs.

Towers, 47, was in charge when the Dads won four NL West titles and made it to the World Series (1998), where they were swept by the Yankees.

Team CEO Jeff Moorad, whose ownership group acquired the Padres last March, said the move was about the club’s future and recasting its infrastructure accordingly. That makes sense, as new management routinely brings in its own people; and in any event, Moorad must’ve looked twice at a published report in which Towers said, “I SEE TOWERS, Page B·7

The new hospital will not lose beds in the transition, according to Scripps’ spokesperson Lisa Ohmstede. The two new towers will provide a total of 236 beds.

Ohmstede declined to provide a cost estimate for the new construction.

Construction on the new hospital is expected to begin July 2011, and doors are anticipated to open in July 2015. ■

Ocean Beach will be brimming with lederhosen and sausage Saturday, Oct. 10 as the Ocean Beach Oktoberfest returns to the OB Pier parking lot from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

“It’s Oktoberfest at the beach,” said Ocean Beach MainStreet Association (OBMA) executive director Denny Knox. “I don’t know of another Oktoberfest right on the beach.”

OBMA has hosted Oktoberfest the past seven years, and this is its third straight year in the pier parking lot. Knox said she expects

between 5,000 and 10,000 people to attend.

“Last year, people had such a good time,” Knox said. “Everybody was in a great mood and the weather was really nice.”

Between 150 and 300 scampering sausages kick off the festivities during the OB Brat Trot at 9 a.m.

The 5K race is pitted on the beach between runners dressed in sausage outfits, all fighting not to be the wurst of the group.

“There’s a group of people that do it every year,” Knox said.

Reversing the tide of ocean species pillage

BY JUDITH LEA GARFIELD

It’s hard to fathom that I became a certified scuba diver 32 years ago, but then who remembers details at 5 years old? Seriously, though, I’ve seen changes to the ocean environment over the decades, and they frighten me. I remember the strands of giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) being thicker and somehow stronger. Now, when I dive La Jolla (or Point Loma or the Channel Islands, for that matter), the kelp looks spindly and sparse.

When I started diving, I remember seeing cabazon (Scorpaenichthys marmoratus) fish on most dives in La Jolla’s submarine canyon. My logbooks and

image archives validate that cabazon were a regular part of the scenery, and they were 2 to 3 feet long. I would fin over the upper terrace of the canyon and see males sitting atop their fertilized egg mass, guarding them against hungry intruders. I have pages of cabazon pictures to prove it. In fact, I got so many good photos of them, I stopped because I decided I had enough. Recently, I realized that I hadn’t seen a cabazon in some years. When I finally did about a month ago, I didn’t recognize what kind of fish it was!

After my dive, I studied the image: a mottled green fish distinguished by a bulbous head and mouth rimmed with fleshy lips. It was indeed a cabazon, though a scant 6 inches long.

I shared my sorry story with Diving Locker owner Jake Shelton, a diver for 24 years who has been based in San Diego for the last five years.

“I’ve never seen a cabazon in the canyon,” he said.

Jake sees them elsewhere in San Diego waters but even so, they measure no more than 12 to 18 inches long. Skeptical of my recollection from decades ago, he said, “Cabazon don’t get 3 feet long. You must be thinking of SEE TIDE, Page B·6

A Message from Dr. Broomberg, “Voted Best La Jolla Doctor” for Three Consecutive Years I have been practicing Family Medicine for 40 years in South Africa and the United States. I began my practice in 1983 here in La Jolla, and it grew from a small intimate practice to a rather large one, now servicing over 3,600 active patients.

Every year the pressure to see more people increases, leaving both the patient and the doctor dissatisfied. The dramatic changes in medicine, throughout the years, have made it exceedingly difficult to deliver a high level of personalized service. With this in mind, I am making some important changes in my practice that allow me to take care of my expanded patient base and offer new personalized wellness options and specialty services.

Along with the continuation of general medicine, I am excited to announce the implementation of three categories of enhanced services into my practice.

How Does a Geriatric Care Manager Help?

The irony of not using a care manager is that many families, given the opportunity to use the care manager, think they can handle the myriad of problems associated with caring for an elderly loved one and will not pay the money. Yet the services of a geriatric care manager will probably save them considerably more money then do-it-yourself. The cost of the care manager might be only a fraction of the savings the care manager could produce. Care manager services can also greatly reduce family and caregiver stress and help eliminate family disputes and disagreements.

Here is just a partial list of what a geriatric care manager can do: • Assess the level and type of care needed and develop a care plan • Take steps to start the care plan and keep it functioning • Make sure care is received in a safe and disability friendly environment.

• Resolve family conflicts and other family issues relating to long term care • Become an advocate for the care recipient and the family caregiver • Manage care for a loved one for out-of-town families • Oversee and direct care provided at home • Provide assistance with placement in assisted living facilities or nursing homes • Assist with the monitoring of medications • Coordinate medical appointments and medical information

• Assist families in positive decision Concierge Eye Care, making First Class Level Service • Develop long range plans for older loved ones not now needing care.

Dr. Sunstein moves his La Jolla Office During my 13 years of college I received my Bachelor of Science in Biology at SDSU, then I received my Doctor of Dental Surgery from UCLA, and Advanced Degree’s in General and Esthetic dentistry. I did my residency in New York City at Columbia University for Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics.

I came back to join my family and live my dream practicing Orthodontics in La Jolla after my residency.

I have been practicing Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics here in La Jolla in my second decade of making smiles. We just recently moved from our Herschel address to 7575 Eads Ave., where our new state of the art facility has been built in the Montrachet building one block north of Pearl. There is easy access and plenty of parking.

I love making beautiful smiles every day, I truly enjoy what I do! If you would like to come by and see for yourself or for a free consultation you can meet my wonderful staff and myself. Some of whom have been with me since I started here in the “Jewel by the Sea.” We are one big happy family. We look forward to making many more beautiful smiles in the years to come!

lingcod.”

After consulting two fish identification books (published in the 1980s), he said, “Wow, you’re right. Actually, it says they grow to 39 inches.”

Space limitations prevent me from sharing more anecdotes, but know that diminished marine life populations are pervasive across marine vertebrate and invertebrate species. And it’s not just numbers because overfishing has also resulted in below-average sizes (compared with historical data) of mature adult fish.

Reminiscing with diving pioneers who hark back 50 to 60 years highlights that despite my extensive local dive experiences, it’s not only Jake who has missed the extravaganza of underwater life that once existed. I have, too.

WHAT LIES BENEATH

One long-timer said it used to take 30 minutes for a school of silversides to pass by overhead off Point La Jolla. I’m jazzed if I count 30 seconds for an occasional school of sardines or mackerel to cruise by. I’m ecstatic to meet up with a rare 100-pound giant sea bass (Stereolepis gigas), but these are minnows compared with decades past when these fish were not only abundant but weighed in excess of 300 or 400 pounds.

It used to be that many places in the sea were too remote or too deep for people to access. These regions balanced out the negative impacts of human fishing and polluting activities occurring elsewhere. Our technology and consumption have all but eliminated most of these refuges, while our dependence on the ocean for clean air, clean water, food and recreation escalates along with our population.

It’s hard for me to wrap my head around, but a half-century ago, divers could look skyward for a half-hour off Point La Jolla as a school comprising millions of fish passed by. Today’s schools more closely resemble this image taken off La Jolla.

Marine Protected Areas are a proven way to re-create the critical natural buffer zones of yore that acted to rebuild and invigorate stocks for the near and distant future. The no-take La Jolla Ecological Reserve, implemented almost 40 years ago, is only a baby step in this process because the reserve is not big enough. We need a larger buffer zone to promote critical recovery of vertebrate and invertebrate populations that have suffered from decades of overfishing and inadequate fisheries management.

Reasonable policies have too often not been implemented because of pressure from powerful special interest groups. The result is historically low populations of many species, collapsed populations, and in regards to fish, populations dominated by small-sized adults.

Thankfully, it’s not to late to change course. By supporting the Marine Life Protection Act’s “conservation proposal,” we can extend no-take protection to the southern La Jolla reef system (encompassing south Windansea to Crystal Pier). The area includes a year-round kelp forest, rocky reefs, sandy flats and submarine canyon. While some species range across more than one of these habitats, many species are restricted to only one, making this tract of ocean the only reasonable choice to revitalize the widest number of species. Further, it is the only proposal that meets the guidelines promoted by the science advisory team that includes internationally respected researchers from Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Our support is particularly important because La Jolla boasts the most

extensive and biodiverse rocky reef habitat n Southern California.

I’ve frequently wished I could take my dive gear, board a time machine, dial in 100 years ago and return to La Jolla. There I could thrill to dive in an unspoiled underwater world boiling with life. I’m realistic enough to know that can only happen in my dreams, but I’m idealistic enough to hope that the Blue Ribbon Task Force does right by Californians —those now living and those yet to be born. Heed the spirit as well as the rules laid out in the Marine Life Protection Act and accept the conservation proposal. Incorporating protection of the diverse marine habitats found off southern La Jolla will widely benefit all ocean life (and us!) elsewhere up and down the coast. The many species of marine life may now be small in size and diminished in

population but they are there. We just need to get out of the way and let them flourish.

don’t know if we need to do a lot this winter.” Well, of course the franchise needs to do a lot this winter. Even the sweep-happy Yankees, with 2009’s best record, need to do a lot this winter. After all, trades, salary discussions and physical fitness reports are what winters are for.

Still, Towers’ termination seems oddly timed. If new owners are intent on hiring fresh personnel, they normally do it sooner than later, before any harmful residual effects have a chance to set in.

Towers may have had a reputation as a “gunslinger,” like the reports say, but amid the late-season uptick and his own track record, it might have been prudent to wait another year before deciding on his dismissal. On-field progress like this is usually traceable to work behind the scenes, and Towers was a formidable figure in such affairs.

With $10,000 on the line, the competition in the sausage toss should also be meaty. In this event, contestants try to throw rubber sausages into a pot 50 feet away. There will also be a steinholding contest to see who can last the longest holding a full stein of beer — a contest that requires strength and a lack of thirst.

Admission to the beer garden is $3 and proceeds benefit the Ocean Beach Community Foundation.

Inside the garden, thirsty festivalgoers can guzzle Karl Strauss Oktoberfest and Warsteiner for $6 each. And all the traditional German fare — including bratwursts and pretzels — will be at the event to complement the beer and bring back memories of Bavaria.

Padres management has given GM Kevin Towers his walking papers, as the Pads finished the season slightly ahead of last year.
