By Ashley Mackin o get a better idea of how people are using La Jolla’s Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), San Diego CoastKeeper is taking to the sea. For the last few months, CoastKeeper researchers and volunteers have gone out by boat to gather data for the MPA Watch program — including the number of boats in the area and what the occupants are doing. Currently in an “exploratory”
T
phase, researchers will use their findings to determine whether a monitoring program that regularly features boat trips would be feasible. There are 11 MPAs in San Diego County. Facilitated by Wildcoast and CoastKeeper, MPA Watch calls on volunteers to observe human activity in these areas. La Jolla has two MPAs, one that spans from the Cove to Scripps Pier and another that spans from Scripps Pier to Torrey
Pines Beach — each from the mean high tide line to about a mile out to sea. During a Watch session, volunteers stand at points across (or walk along the mean high tide line) and look out toward the ocean. They then submit their findings. The information will be used in 2017 to review the effectiveness of the MPAs as a fisheries protective resource. See Coastkeeper, A8
La Jollan donates funds for parkway cleanup From La Jolla Community Foundation Reports
T
he La Jolla Community Foundation received a generous gift for funding a six-month pilot project to clean up La Jolla Parkway. Under the direction of San Diego City Council President Sherri Lightner, the city recently started cleaning La Jolla Parkway once a month. The pilot project, a gift from a La Jollan who wishes to remain anonymous, will supplement the city service with an additional twice a month cleanup. “La Jolla Light has received numerous letters to the editor about the trash along La Jolla’s gateway, so the Foundation was thrilled that one of our residents and supporters came forward to help with this problem,” said Phyllis Pfeiffer, La Jolla Light publisher and chair of the La Jolla Community Foundation. See Parkway Cleanup, A20
With thousands of commuters driving through the narrow La Jolla Parkway, aka ‘The Throat,’ each day, it easily becomes a repository for trash, litter and debris. Ashley Mackin

Planners OK The Conrad, Conger Project, Prestwick speed limit La Jolla Community Planning Association
Christopher Beach, La Jolla Music Society theater and development consultant, introduces the new performing arts complex, ‘The Conrad,’ at the La Jolla Community Planning Association meeting Oct. 1. Photos by Ashley Mackin / Rendering by Dennis Allain/Epstein Joslin Architects 500-seat concert hall, 150-person cabaret/ multi-use space, rehearsal rooms, large open courtyard, and offices for La Jolla Music Society will begin next spring for a grand opening in January 2018. Philanthropist Conrad Prebys, who earned naming rights after making a $15 million donation, was in attendance at LJCPA meeting. Christopher Beach, former president and artistic director of La Jolla Music Society, currently working as theater and development consultant, introduced the project. “When we started this project, our
directive to the architects was very clear: keep it simple. We asked them to design a project that conformed to the PDO and is consistent with the La Jolla Community Plan. Happily, the folks down at the city told us we have done that,” Beach said. “We believe we have created a beautiful performing arts center that is worthy of its location in the heart of La Jolla. It complies with all the technical requirements, as well as with the spirit of those requirements, and we are particularly proud that your subcommittees have voted not only in favor, but
unanimously in favor, of our project.” Citing the myriad ways the project conforms to the La Jolla Community Plan, Ray Porfilio of Epstein Joslin Architects explained that several recommendations influenced the design, such as: use transitions in bulk and scale to create visual interest and create a sense of enclosure for pedestrians; reduce actual or apparent bulk with the use of building articulation; provide landscaping to add texture to blank walls, soften edges, and provide a sense of pedestrian scale; use curbside planting

By Ashley Mackin The excitement was palpable at the Oct. 1 La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) meeting, when 100 people filled La Jolla Rec Center to hear whether the board would approve blueprints for the 44,000-square-foot, $65 million Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center (aka The Conrad) at 7600 Fay Ave. La Jolla’s Traffic & Transportation (T&T) committee, Development Permit Review (DPR) committee and Planned District Ordinance (PDO) subcommittee each unanimously approved plans for the facility — and new home to La Jolla Music Society — during their respective monthly meetings. Each sends its recommendations to LJCPA for a vote, before projects proceed to the city for approval. Continuing the streak, LJCPA voted unanimously to ratify the findings of the DPR committee that the project conforms to the La Jolla Community Plan for a Coastal Development Permit and Site Development Permit. Construction on the

Several LJCPA trustees sang the facility’s praises, calling it “beautiful,” “exciting” and an elevation for the community. LJCPA trustee Dolores Donovan congratulated the Music Society on its attention to the La Jolla Community Plan. “Certain (community members) have said the PDO is broken and should be repealed. You have proved that the opposite is the case.” With a handful of trustees citing concerns over parking, presenters explained the parking plan, which Beach said the team spent more time on “than most things put together.” Originally presented (and approved) at the T&T meeting in July, parking plans include purchasing spaces from the nearby Bank of America parking structure, and “sharing” commitments from surrounding parking at The Bishop’s School, La Jolla Presbyterian Church and the Merrill Lynch and Charles Schwab buildings. The latter two house businesses that close at night, so the lots are mostly vacant evenings. Each of these facilities is within three blocks of The Conrad. When issuing concert tickets, Beach said patrons would be informed about where they can park, the location of which might change to avoid scheduling conflicts with other events.

voted to send the Kaplan-Gaston residence at 5606 Dolphin Place back to DPR for discussion. The permit reviewers determined findings could not be made for a Coastal Development Permit and Site Development Permit for a first and second story addition to the existing single-family residence because the project does not transition or relate well to other neighboring houses. Of chief concern was a carport and whether it was included in the floor-area ratio, and its relation to the house immediately to the east. The neighboring home is a midcentury modern William Kesling-designed house that uses a glass wall to create an indoor/outdoor effect. Residents expressed concern that with the addition of a second story on the Kaplan-Gaston residence, their view of the sky would be eliminated. At the LJCPA meeting, trustees raised questions about the project that could not be answered by the applicant or his legal representation, and determined DPR would be the more appropriate place to discuss the concerns. n Prestwick Drive speed limit: Ratifying the findings of the T&T advisory board, LJCPA voted to keep the speed limit of Prestwick Drive between Calle de Oro and Dunaway Drive in La Jolla Shores at 30 miles per hour, even though it means losing radar enforcement. During a speed study of the area, the city found 85 percent of cars were going 35 miles per hour — or faster. To keep radar enforcement, the limit would have to be raised from 30 to 35. T&T voted to retain the 30 mph speed

With such petition in hand, Prestwick Drive resident Pat Miller told LJCPA that several residents are concerned with the fact that drivers are already speeding on their street, and raising the speed limit would worsen the problem. n Gas station to become condos: LJCPA also voted to ratify the DPR recommendation on the planned redevelopment at 801 Pearl St. at Eads Avenue (The Conger project), where there is currently a 76 service station. DPR determined findings can be made for a Coastal Development Permit and Site Development Permit and Tentative Map (Process 4) to remove the station and construct a new, mixed-use project with
four retail units and 12 residential units with a subterranean garage. After years of revisions and modifications to the project, it earned DPR approval at the September meeting. However, with the approval comes the request the city conduct an environmental study and investigate adding designated left turn lanes to Pearl Street and Eads Avenue. u — LJCPA meets 6 p.m. first Thursdays at La Jolla Rec Center, 615 Prospect St. The board encourages the public to attend and participate in subcommittee and advisory meetings before an item or project is considered.

This is the mask the gunman was wearing, now in possession of the police. Courtesy medium build and appeared to be in his 20s, although as he had covered his face, head and arms and possibly distorted his voice, it was hard to tell anything else. I’m so incredibly thankful to have a happy ending to this terrifying story. I reached out to the La Jolla Light for a couple of reasons. First, I want to thank my amazing community of La Jolla that I’ve been a part of for five years and several of my neighbors who waited with me and called 911 as they heard my screams. I would especially like to thank the smart and honest Anna, who found my purse and returned it right away.

fter leaving work at NINE-TEN Restaurant around 11:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 30 and walking south on Draper Avenue, a man came around the corner by the post office wearing a Halloween mask, hooded sweatshirt and baggy pants and aiming a handgun at me while shouting at me to give him my purse. I threw my purse on the ground while screaming and he scooped it up and ran around the corner from me. I called 911 immediately and a few cars stopped to help me, waiting with me until the police arrived. The police arrived within minutes and were absolutely fantastic at their job, especially Officer Geoff Kaiser. After the police took statements from some witnesses and me and assessed the situation, I was allowed to go home. After a sleepless night, I was incredibly lucky and thankful to get a call from my sister who said a La Jollan named Anna found my purse completely intact and was able to tell her that she had it. The purse, and mask, had been thrown on the ground on Silver Street while the thief fled the scene either on foot or in a car. The thief was a male, about 5 feet 9 inches tall,
I also want to recognize that the police officers were so kind, quick, helpful and allaround excellent at their jobs. I was hysterical and their calm and professional demeanor was a comfort. Finally, I’d like to remind my community to be on guard and keep your eyes open: Avoid dark places at night, unlit sidewalks, and call 911 if you see or hear anything suspicious. If anyone has information about this man or saw anything suspicious on Wednesday night, please contact the Northern Division Police Station at (858) 552-1700. u

an Diego City Council members approved the three-story mixed-use (aka Whitney) project in La Jolla Shores Oct. 5, despite objections by some residents and community leaders. La Jollans Bob and Kim Whitney plan to demolish a pair of single-story buildings in the 2200 block of Avenida La Playa and construct a three-story building — with 1,800 square feet of commercial retail on the ground level and two condo units above, one of which will be their home. Opponents of the project called it a dangerous precedent that would damage the character of the upscale enclave and make it less appealing as a restaurant and shopping area. The most vocal opposition came from Myrna Naegle, who lives adjacent to the property, and who argued that its proposed 65-foot-long, 30-foothigh wall next to her residence would block light and ventilation. City staff concluded that the separation between the buildings would allow for adequate light and airflow, and disagreed with other criticisms of the project. The council voted 6-2 in favor of certifying the EIR for the project, which allows it to move forward. Council members Sherri Lightner, whose district includes La Jolla Shores, and David Alvarez voted against it. Marti Emerald was absent. Lightner said the developer hasn’t been
responsive enough to community complaints about the project, particularly its bulk and scale. She said it looks nearly identical to when it was first proposed five years ago. The remaining council members made few comments, with Scott Sherman motioning to approve the project after saying he couldn’t find a reason to oppose it. Bob Whitney said the council made the right move, adding it could stifle development in the city to require so much effort for similar projects, and noting his family has spent more than $250,000 on city permits and fees since first proposing the project in 2010. — U-T and Light reports

E-cigarette vendors work the Internet A study by UC San Diego School of Medicine researchers published in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence points to aggressive online marketing tactics that make purchasing e-cigarettes easy for all ages. “We found e-cigarette vendors were highly engaged in promoting the culture of ‘vaping’ online, including posting images to Instagram, a social media site used by 52 percent of teens,” said Tim K. Mackey, Ph.D., UCSD School of Medicine assistant professor of anesthesiology and global public health and first author of the study. “Despite the fact that 47 states prohibit the sale of e-cigarettes to minors, the results highlight the potential of the Internet to encourage e-cigarette initiation and underage purchasing. This is particularly concerning given that the FDA does not have specific proposed regulations for online e-cigarette sales.” A National Youth Tobacco Survey shows e-cigarette use tripled among middle and high school students from 2013 to 2014.

people fishing there. Should they see a boat in the MPA, Watch staff will get close enough to see with certainty what the occupants are doing, using binoculars. They survey the results, including latitude and longitude, type of boat, what boaters are doing, time, weather conditions and more. “If we see someone fishing in a MPA, it does not necessarily mean they are poaching, they could just not know what the rules are, which tells us where our gaps in outreach and advocacy are,” Kuhn said. “The value of being out here is more anecdotal. It’s not about catching folks in the act right now, it’s about getting a feel for what’s going on out here …” she paused.

“Like this guy …” she said, as she observed a small boat sitting stationary in the water within the MPA. Next to it was an even smaller vessel, about the size of a rowboat or kayak. O’Malley proceeded closer to the possible perpetrators, just until Kuhn could see clearly with binoculars. “Oh yeah, they’re fishing,” she said. “I just watched one of them cast a line.” She said part of their outreach is to determine if boaters or fishermen know they are in a MPA and whether they are respecting the rules. “When we see poachers, depending on whether they seem unaware that they are in a reserve or are aware and don’t care, we call Cal-TIP

Kristin Kuhn, CoastKeeper community engagement coordinator, explained, “The point of the surveys on land was to get a sense for how people were using the MPAs. The boat component is a counterpoint to someone standing on the beach with binoculars.” She said while someone on land could record the number of kayaks, for example, on the ocean, it might be easier and more accurate from a boat. Kuhn added, “The whole point of these (boat) trips is to see if this program is worth the effort and resources.” During a trip, which researchers conduct two to four times a month, a team of three

During a trip with La Jolla Light Sept. 29, the crew consisted of Kuhn, Water Quality Laboratory Coordinator Meredith Meyers, and Waterkeeper/Law and Policy Director Matt O’Malley. O’Malley captained the small vessel on the windy afternoon, and Meyers helped navigate. Once they arrive at the MPA, determined by latitude and longitude, Watch staff “park” the boat at the western border and face land to get a broad view of the protected area in front of them. Fishing is not allowed in the La Jolla MPA, yet Kuhn said more than half the time, they see

(Californians Turning In Poachers) hotline.” MPA maps are found at sdcoastkeeper.org or wherever fishing equipment is sold. More often than not, she said, people are aware they’re in a MPA and what the rules are, but fish there anyway. The problem is that each MPA was deemed need of protecting because of its biological value and some are breeding grounds for marine species, such as fish. The La Jolla MPA abuts a conservation area, in which line fishing of pelagic finfish — including tuna, swordfish and shark — is allowed. An additional boat was spotted fishing in this area. Due to the windy weather, conditions were choppy, and why only the three vessels were seen. When lobster season starts (see sidebar right), Kuhn said several fishermen drop lobster traps in the area, or bring their boats out and dive. Meyers added that most people would be surprised to know that even though these areas are protected, there is a wide variety of permissible recreation. These include children making sand castles, shoreline fishing (where permitted), surfing, kayaking, swimming and bodysurfing. The MPA program was adopted in 2012, and will be reviewed for efficacy in 2017. In the meantime, Kuhn said at the end of the year, CoastKeeper and Wildcoast will come together to review the data collected on the boat trips and decide whether a more formal boat program could be implemented. Volunteers are also being accepted for the on-land MPA Watch program. Find more information at sdcoastkeeper.org u

Diver Safety Message as Lobster Season Opens Beginning early Saturday morning, Oct. 3 (through lobster season ending March 16, 2016) hundreds of divers will be in pursuit of the California Spiny Lobster. San Diego Beaches are popular for lobster fishing but can be hazardous for divers and boaters. Lifeguards will be increasing staffing on opening night to help Fish and Game Wardens and to respond to emergencies. The majority of diving related injuries are preventable. Before you enter the water, be sure that: n 1. Your training is adequate for the ocean conditions and you will respect your limitations. n 2. You will not hesitate to ditch your weights, inflate your BC, and signal for help when in distress. n 3. Your physical fitness is adequate for the heavy
tunein
physical activity that lobster diving entails. Many dive fatalities are caused by heart attacks.
Boaters need to be aware of the increased diver population when transiting through or near fishing areas. There should always be a lookout on the boat helping the operator avoid divers and other boats at night and navigation lights always need to be on. People using hoop nets should not set them in areas that would cause obstruction to vessel navigation – particularly Mission Bay Channel. Boaters should be aware of the surf conditions and avoid getting to close to breaking waves. Lobsters may be taken only by hand or hoop nets. Divers fishing for lobsters must have a valid California fishing license, a spiny lobster report card and must carry a measuring gauge to ensure their lobsters are of legal size. Daily limits are seven lobsters per person and each lobster must measure a minimum of three and one- fourth inches measured in a straight line on the midline of the back. — Lee Swanson, San Diego Fire-Rescue

Kathleen Rafaat of La Jolla uses ingenuity and crowdfunding to build shelters in Nepal villages after the earthquake. Martha Shaw

Jay Nepal Action
Earthquake in Nepal opens hearts in La Jolla N By Martha Jane Shaw early six months ago on April 25, when the Ghorka earthquake destroyed entire villages in the Himalayas, more than 8,000 miles away in the small town of La Jolla, California, one woman was so shaken up by the devastation that she was determined to help. Driven by compassion for the kind villagers of Nepal she had met in her travels, Kathleen Rafaat of La Jolla took quick action. She dialed the number of the Nepalese craftsman who had made the singing bowl that stands on the mantle of her home to find out what his people needed most. “When my friend Manoj answered his phone in Nepal, I was so relieved to hear his voice,” Rafaat said. “But, many of his neighbors had lost their lives, while hundreds of thousands of others had lost their homes.” Within a week, Manoj Shresthna of Nepal and Rafaat figured out the fastest way to get sturdy Himalayan
shelters designed and built. Together they started a project that would build a bond of fellowship between the two communities of Kathmandu and La Jolla. Six months later, they’ve proven how people on opposite sides of the world — despite the distance between them and the contrast of cultures — could use ingenuity to help each other in the face of disaster. While Shresthna organized volunteers to comb the countryside for villagers without shelter, Rafaat set up a crowdfunding site to raise the $150 needed for each. This was to pay for raw supplies, including zinc roofs and other materials in combination with bricks and rubble from the demolition. The volunteers were trained to build each shelter in two days. To date, the volunteer group Jay Nepal-Action Volunteers has built 15 shelters southeast of Kathmandu, with more on the way as new funds keep coming in. The project’s crowdfunding site gofundme.com/villageshelter has piqued
Maryl Weightman
the generosity of people in La Jolla who are impressed by how quickly the project can save lives, and the direct correlation between the amount of funds raised, and the number of shelters built, which is described in detail on the site. One contributor is Mount Soledad resident Ashley Stone, who participated because she understands the incredibly strong will of the Nepalese people, and the tremendous difference that the shelters are making. “The village volunteers mastered the art of making a shelter from scratch with $150,” she said. “Now they train others. That’s a good investment in humanity, and in ourselves. It’s also just good karma.” Crowdfunding is creating a significant cultural shift that can match a community in need to another that can help. It’s an engine of creativity that enables people everywhere to take part in solving problems that matter to them very deeply, with
remarkable efficiency. The crowdfunding revolution is setting in motion new ways to be innovative, collaborative and to play a role in helping others, who might well do the same if the situation were reversed. The campaign is now funding new shelters in the historic city of Kritipur and the famous square of Bhaktapur. Rafaat plans to visit Nepal in the coming months to see the positive impact from all the hard work, and evaluate what is needed next. She will be trained by the volunteers to build the Quonset-style shelter structures, she offering them training in exchange on how to build social media tools and platforms to expand their reach. For Kathleen Rafaat in La Jolla and Manoj Shresthna in Nepal, the project is an opportunity to show the world how to care for one another — even when the whole world turns upside down. n To donate: gofundme.com/villageshelter

Parks & Beaches board hears project updates, bylaw concerns Project components include widening and restructuring the walking paths, creating seating areas, planting drought tolerant shrubbery, improving water runoff, and more. When the plan was originally presented and approved, one component was to expand the fencing to the edge of the bluff to open up more space and provide more scenic viewpoints. “It turns out nature had other ideas, as there has been some erosion in that area, so it’s no longer suitable to extend the fence,” Neri said, and he requested board approval to remove the fencing extension from the plan. LJPB voted unanimously to support the revised plans. From here, project architects and engineers will produce a plan to present to the city. Neri said it would likely take three months to review, at which point he can complete final drawings and crews can begin construction. He added that the plan is to work during the summer, before the start of the 2016 seal pupping season in December, and he would request a waiver to the summer construction moratorium at that time. The project was funded through private and city contributions.
La Jolla
Parks and Beaches By Ashley Mackin At its monthly meeting Sept. 28, the La Jolla Parks & Beaches (LJPB) board discussed and voted on a minor change to the Children’s Pool Walk project, voted (kind of) on a tree removal and re-vegetation project, and introduced a discussion to change its bylaws. An advisory group covering its namesake parks and beaches, LJPB makes recommendations to the San Diego Park & Recreation Department and other applicable advisory committees, and may fundraise to cover projects within their jurisdiction.
Children’s Pool Walk Landscape architect Jim Neri presents revised plans for the Children’s Pool Walk beautification project. Photos by Ashley Mackin minor change to the plans. “What we have is a project that expands upon the lifeguard tower improvements, and (enhances) that whole plaza area,” he said.
Tree removal and re-vegetation
“We took the area the city was not improving around the lifeguard tower and said ‘How can we make this better for the people of La Jolla and those who visit there?’ ”
A project to remove a cluster of Eucalyptus trees near the 7000 block of Brodiaea Way, off Encelia Drive in La Jolla Heights Natural Park returned to LJPB, after pinballing around to other advisory groups.

The Children’s Pool Walk beautification project (aka Coast Walk Beautification project), spearheaded by LJPB member Phyllis Minick, will spruce up the walking area above Children’s Pool after construction on the adjacent lifeguard tower is complete this winter.

NOW LEASING New La Jolla Parks & Beaches member Tom Brady Although the LJPB board took two votes on the issue, one in favor and one against, neither passed. Originally presented at the August LJPB meeting by Claude-Anthony Marengo of Marengo Morton Architects, the project would remove 10 eucalyptus trees adjacent to a home rebuild and re-vegetate the area with native plants. Removing the trees, which are highly flammable and not native to the area, would prevent an increase in the cost of fire insurance for the homeowner. Because Marengo did not have a list of proposed plant replacements, LJPB declined to vote in August. Marengo also presented to La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) in September, which voted to let LJPB hear the item again before making a recommendation, and to city staff, which favored the removal in the interest of stabilizing the hillside. At the LJPB and LJCPA presentations, suggestions for replacement trees – such as Torrey Pine and Coastal Live Oak – were raised and brought to the city. Marengo reported those suggested required more extensive maintenance than the city was ready to provide. “We’re on board to supply, re-vegetate, control the erosion and temporarily water (to establish the plants), but the city couldn’t commit to longer maintenance,” he said. Marengo did not have other replacement plants to report. Adding to concerns that LJPB did not know which trees or shrub would replace the eucalyptus, members expressed concern over the precedent it might set to remove trees in parks for private benefit. A motion to deny the requested tree removal failed, 4-5-3. Conversely, members expressed support for the project because the trees are nonnative and their removal would open up the view. But a motion to support the project also failed, 4-5-3. Marengo said he would proceed to the city, reporting the split results.
A change in bylaws? Reviewing the variety of projects under the LJPB umbrella, community member Karl Zobell
questioned the board’s jurisdiction, leading to a discussion about revising its bylaws. “In looking at the agendas, it appears that about a quarter of what comes up is (related to) parks and beaches, the rest is not. There is an ambiguity … and the bylaws could be altered to make it clearer as to what is within the jurisdiction of this organization,” he said. Zobell noted the Children’s Pool Walk, as well as the Whale View Point Shoreline Enhancement Project and plans to investigate the feasibility of adding more parking to Coast Walk (Zobell was a resident of Coast Walk) — all of which would technically fall under the City of San Diego Streets Division. Other beach-related topics often discussed at LJPB include signage in parks, La Jolla Cove restroom renovation, Marine Protected Areas and the Torrey Pines Road view corridor. LJPB chair Dan Allen said there was a brief officer’s meeting to cover these concerns and address the bylaws. He said he plans to speak with the Park & Rec Department about changing the bylaws and is hopeful to have a suggested course of action by the end of the year.

Murfey Construction touts its projects in progress By Marti Gacioch ith projects in La Jolla, Cardiff Bythe-Sea and Santee, Murfey Construction, Inc. has a fall harvest full of new construction jobs, others in mid-stream, and a townhome finale. “We started a facelift of Cardiff’s San Elijo Center,” said co-owner, Scott Murfey. “We’re giving the 4,000-square-foot space a more contemporary look that features a new Italian restaurant with outdoor seating.” The shops there include Subway, Lourdes Mexican Food, the Iron Cross Surf Shop and Mar Vista Liquor. The project will be completed in December 2015. In September, Murfey Construction, Inc. also started an 8,000 square-foot Santee retail development at 9261 Mission Gorge Road. The Santee business complex will have four units, including an optometrist’s office. It’s scheduled for completion in March 2016. “We’re also busy building our Hillcrest 36unit apartment development on the corner of Washington Street and 8th Avenue,” he continued. “In August we framed the building to the top and it’s as high as it’s going to get.” Murfey said they started the units in October 2014 with the goal of finishing all

The project is a one-of-akind state-of-the art facility that continues a client’s care — even if he or she develops Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s diseases during
their lifetime. The goal is to avoid having a person’s life disrupted emotionally and psychologically by having to move to a Alzheimer’s facility that may not be trained in caring for those with disabilities. “We broke ground for Noah in August 2014,” Murfey said, “It took teamwork collaboration and a lot of people donating
goods and services to help make it a reality. It was actually started by nuns more than 30 years ago, but a lot of people didn’t know about it,” Murfey said. “Its CEO, Molly Nocon, had a brother with Down syndrome who lived at Noah homes and Molly took over running the campus. “We’re doing a thorough revitalization of Noah and have the best architects, engineers and consultants in San Diego working on the project. They’ve donated their time pro bono to design two new 5,000-square-foot custom assisted living facilities.” And finally, “Famosa,” Murfey’s nine contemporary-styled Point Loma townhomes is now completed with full occupancy.

Door-hangers distributed throughout the neighborhood indicate two-way traffic will be maintained, but foot traffic will be detoured to direct pedestrians around the ramps of various streets. There will be minor traffic control in construction zones. More details at sandiego.gov/cip or (619) 533-4207.
Two La Jolla businesses have shuttered and left the Village; Fugu’s Sushi & Wok on Pearl Street and Amici’s Pizzeria on Prospect Street.

Let’s all pitch in to pick up trash I love to walk around La Jolla, even at this time of year when it’s been so warm. I’ll find every shady lane, usually no later than 9:30 a.m. when the sun’s casting a wide shadow on the east side of Girard Avenue along the storefronts. This is also a time to enjoy the occasional cool air coming from the open shop doors. While I’m walking I try to make it a point to pick up trash as I go. Fortunately with the new service being offered by the La Jolla Village Merchants Association (Mary is doing such a good job) there is much less trash in town. But I can’t say the same about the south end of Fay Avenue in front of La Jolla High School. On occasion I’ve taken a bag and picked up trash on both sides of Fay, where students (and many passersby, I’m sure) tend to walk as they eat and drink. I understand there was a school club that used to pick up litter pretty regularly. Just in the few weeks since students returned, a lot has collected in the bushes, along the street, in the parking lot and overflowing from the receptacle in front of the pool entrance. I would like to encourage all those who walk along these areas to pick up some litter and carry it home or to the nearest trashcan. This will help everyone enjoy their walks along our lovely streets.

Rain Check
here are a number of Irish nationals who reside here in La Jolla. These two ladies are from Ireland, but they live here now, and explained to me that a rainy day, like this past Monday, Oct. 5 is “just everyday in Ireland.” In fact, they said it was “nice” day because the rain came down straight and calm instead of the usual sideways and windy, like in Ireland. Anyway, our patio at the Brick & Bell Cafe was not too popular to sit on with all the rain on Monday, but when I looked outside, there were the Irish — right where they always sit! I wish you could hear their thick and charming accents … and they are always witty. Peter Watry Owner, Brick & Bell Cafe P.S. You can always find an Irish national at every Christmas party in La Jolla because they are such great storytellers. They tell me it is the National Sport of Ireland!

PREP FOOTBALL: La Jolla High School Vikings 41, Christian High School Patriots 19
Vikings victory against Patriots is night to remember By Bill Wyatt ct. 3 was a night to remember for the La Jolla High Vikings and, in a way, for the Christian High Patriots as well. Played at Granite Hills High School on Saturday night instead of the traditional Friday, kickoff began at 7 p.m. Ranked No. 9 in the state of California (yes, 9th in the whole state of California), the Patriots have won the State CIF (California Interscholastic Federation) football titles in 2014, 2013, 2011, and several years prior. With all the underdogs talk going into the game, the Vikings were out to show that some dogs can have a BIG bite! Christian won the coin toss and elected to receive. Patriot quarterback David Jeremiah strung together some wellconstructed offensive plays as they drove into La Jolla territory. After a string of incomplete passing plays and on a third-and-12, the Patriots were unable to convert the third down. They missed the following field goal to give the Vikings the ball on offense. On a second-and-10, Vikings quarterback Casey Brown found senior Jonathon Levenson for a gain of 29 yards into Christian territory. Brown attempted an end zone pass but Patriot senior Nick Sexton fouled the play for a defensive interception. Looking as if the Pats were driving to score, the Vikings defense held strong and after the first quarter, the score was 0-0. To start the second quarter, Brown found Levenson again for 31 yards on a passing touchdown and the first score of the game. Each side had plays for big gains, but sets of penalties on each drew each offense further and further away from putting points on the board. Near the end of the second quarter, Viking quarterback Brown found senior Trenton Fudge for a 43-yard passing completion and on the next play, junior Joseph Duran ran
half Vikings 14, Patriots 0. The third and fourth quarters remained in favor of the Vikings as they continued on both sides of the ball to execute plays and set up big gains. There were a slew of penalties throughout the game as the second half continued. The Patriots were unable to move the ball on the ground or pass effectively after returning from half time, even though they did find creases in the Vikings defense and were able to put up 19 points the second half. The Vikings defense dominated the Patriots offense forcing three more interceptions — two by junior Jalen Nelson and one by junior Duran. Patriots quarterback Jeremiah seemed to remain frustrated and was never able to find a rhythm to jumpstart the Christian passing game or their run game. The second half continued to see action on all three phases, and showed in favor of La Jolla. The Vikings capped off the win with a 71-yard touchdown run by Levenson to bring the final score Vikings 41, Patriots, 19. The postgame was filled with an energy and excitement not only for the players, but for the parents and spectators as well. It was a game for the student body and the staff of La Jolla High to talk about within their jewel. The Vikings pulled off one of the biggest upsets the football program has ever seen. It was a classic tale of a David and Goliath. It was a night that would hold special in the minds and hearts of each player forever. It was their night to remember.

There will be competition for which team can raise the most money, too. Tom Murphy Foundation of La Jolla High

Youth Wrestling Club forms, practices start Oct. 20 By Ashley Mackin When it comes to creating a well-rounded athlete with body awareness of multiple muscle groups, La Jolla High School’s strength and conditioning coach Ryan Lennard has an idea to wrestle with. He and assistant coach John Turnbull have revived the La Jolla Youth Wrestling Club, and will start meeting Tuesday, Oct. 20. Hosted at La Jolla High School (but not affiliated with the school or its wrestling team), the club will meet 6:30-8 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays in the wrestling room on the 750 Nautilus St. campus. Open to boys and girls, ages 8 through eighth-grade, the club will run through mid-February. The cost for the five-month program is $200 and includes a sweatshirt and singlet (the uniform worn in wrestling). Participants must purchase their own wrestling shoes. The club is the only wrestling club in La Jolla and one of few in San Diego. La Jolla had a youth wrestling club several years ago, but when the head coach moved, there was no one else to take the reins. “Wrestling is really good for youth because you use your whole body and learn balance, flexibility and coordination,” Lennard said. “With a lot of other sports, you just learn a certain set of skills and a motor pattern specific to that sport.” Additionally, he said wrestling provides a foundation of muscle awareness for when young participants want to become multi-sport athletes later in life. Speaking from experience, Turnbull said his time in a youth wrestling program prepared him to thrive in football. “I learned a lot during my time as a youth wrestler: how to work hard toward a personal goal, how to manage my time as a student-athlete and how to apply focused attention,”
he said. “This sport has given me a lot in my life, and my hope is that we can provide the same experiences for as many young athletes as possible.” Lennard added, “There is a certain personality type that meshes well with wrestling, and that is the kid with lots of energy who loves physical contact. Young kids tend to wrestle around with their friends just because it’s fun, they don’t understand how to do it properly, but this is a great way to get some structure involved but still have that energy outlet.” Turnbull said the sport is also good for young athletes who like to be challenged. “When you are put in a one-on-one situation where you are the only one who controls your own destiny, kids tend to rise to that challenge,” he said. The classes will be held on heavily padded mats and exercises will involve rolling, flipping and tumbling. There will also be a few technique-based exercises for the athletes to practice. “It’s going to be ‘hey, we have an hour and a half, let’s have some fun and learn a move or two a day,’ “ Lennard said. “For the most part, we are going to let them tumble and learn how to safely wrestle.” Turnbull said he started wrestling when he was 5 years old, and the early lessons motivated him and provided friends he is still close to 20 years later. With most of the participants expected to be new to the sport, Lennard said instruction will build from ground up, and athletes will not be pushed to compete. “There are tournaments and if they want to compete and feel comfortable with it, we’ll encourage it, but for now, we’re just going to create a fun environment.” u n Want to know more?

Susanne Rohrbaugh holds a soft spot for Miracle Babies
S
usanne Rohrbaugh said she grew up in a small Ohio town with parents who instilled in her a strong sense of gratitude, that famous Midwest work ethic and value of education. While this lead to careers in dotcoms and dot-bombs in the high-tech sector, it was philanthropy where she found her passion. Donating numerous hours to charities, she was awarded the Hewlett-Packard Corporate Philanthropy Award in 2008. Today she continues to enthusiastically serve on two committees, one of them is Miracle Babies, celebrating its sixth annual gala “Moonlight in Casablanca” Oct. 10 at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar. She is also Susanne chairing (for a second Rohrbaugh year in a row) “Breakfast at Tiffanys,” the annual Miracle Circle Auxiliary breakfast in late February. A resident of La Jolla for more than 10 years with her fiancée Daniel Connor and son Tristan, Susanne’s own “miracle baby,” is now in his sophomore year at St. Mary’s College of California. What brought you to La Jolla? Love! And love of a beautiful community and friends to grow old with. What might you add, subtract or improve in the area? Better parking in the Village, and a pedestrian light on Torrey Pines Road at Hillside Drive, so our neighborhood can enjoy walking to the Shores. If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom would you invite? As long as Giuseppe Catering is cooking: my deceased grandparents and dad, Princess Diana, Oprah, Dalai Lama, Lenny Kravitz, Pope Francis, Steve Jobs, Oscar de la Renta and, of course, my mom, Danny and Tristan. We are going to need a bigger dining room and more plates! What are you reading? I love to read cookbooks, but rarely ever cook! My nightstand and iPad are filled with books such as “Shantaram” by Gregory David Roberts, “Lean In” by Sheryl Sandberg and magazines, but until my work schedule is a little less hectic, my quick reads are Fast Company, The New York Times online and Facebook.

Let Inga Tell You
Keeping it fresh
W
La Jolla Cultural Partners
hen you look at our idea of excitement now, it’s hard to believe that Olof and I met 50 years ago as intrepid adventure-junkie 17-year-olds spending our senior year of high school in the Amazon. How times change. This summer, the celebrations we had for both our 20th wedding anniversary and Olof’s 68th birthday caused our younger son Henry to drily observe: “Now don’t get too crazy.” Henry had tried to talk us into doing something special for our 20th anniversary. Maybe a trip to Europe, he said. Actually, our celebration stayed a little closer to home. We sat outside in our Adirondack chairs drinking a really nice bottle of Champagne, watching the sunset, and reviewing all those betters and worses that we so naively agreed to two decades ago. Then we had an extra-large anchovy pizza delivered to the front yard. It was the best anniversary ever. The evening satisfied all of our current criteria for a successful celebration: 1) We didn’t have to get dressed up 2) We didn’t get in the car and 3) Somebody else cooked it. We’re SO easy to please. Not that this celebration did take at least a little planning. Annoyingly, fewer and
fewer places make anchovy pizza anymore. Half the time, it comes with artichokes instead because they didn’t really believe you really wanted what is uncharitably referred to as a “bait pizza.” Anchovies get no respect. People won’t even let you have anchovies on your half of a pizza, insisting the anchovies will contaminate theirs. When we order Caesar salad at a restaurant, the waitress will ask if we want anchovies, already noting “no” when we respond “heck yes!” (Somebody has to eat up all those dusty cans of fish that restaurants keep around just in case.) Finding — and even better, marrying — a fellow anchovy-lover has been one more plus in a long list of compatibilities. A few weeks after our anniversary was Olof’s 68th birthday. When asked what he wanted to do for the occasion, he replied “bake a cake,” something that has been on his bucket list for a while. Mostly I think he wanted to haul out the Lamborghini of stand mixers (it even grinds meat!) he bought to make cookies for my book launch last December. Olof has baked exactly twice in his life: the first time two years ago to try to recreate his family’s Christmas cookie recipes from his childhood, and the second time to make
cookies for my book event. The Christmas cookies resulted in a column called “How an engineer makes cookies” that won a first place at the San Diego Press Club awards. Olof baking has to be seen to be believed. The spreadsheets! The flow charts! A re-formulation of the recipe into engineer-speak with headings like “Integration of Components.” Who knew a degree in nuclear physics could have such practical applications? Of course, his other motivation in baking a cake was that he wanted a chocolate cake that included raisins — impossible to find unless you bake it yourself. My dear friend Susan perfectly expressed my sentiments about raisins in chocolate cake: As much as I am a “live and let live” freewheeling kind of gal, I’m afraid I, too, must draw the line at chocolate cake with raisins. My position is that the raisins are taking up valuable real estate better served by, say, more chocolate. Replace the raisins with chocolate chips and we’ve got a date. After considerable research, Olof modified an Ina Garten recipe to his specifications, which in this case included the addition of TWO CUPS of raisins. I thought it came out beautifully (if seriously raisin-y). I always take a photo of Olof holding his birthday cake that indicates how old he is. This year, just to add a little hilarity, we switched the candles around for some of the photos to say 86 instead of 68. We’re such cut-ups. Laughed ourselves silly. This is where the kids start rolling their eyes. Sorry kids: fun is where you find it. We all have to keep it fresh in whatever pathetic ways we can.
Seriously raisin-y cake
Inga
Amazingly, Olof made this first-ever cake totally on his own with only a couple of minor assists from me, like How to Turn On The Oven. Nuclear reactors are a cinch compared to the controls on our massively-nonintuitive stove. The only person who can figure it is our tiny granddaughter, who turned off the Thanksgiving turkey two Thanksgivings in a row. It’s still a few months until my 68th birthday where we’ll probably have a celebration of a similar type. Maybe go wild and crazy and order in Chinese food. But as far as our anniversary and Olof’s birthday celebrations are concerned, for the moment we’ve had all the excitement we can stand. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light.

SEA Days: Sustainable Seas
Featuring a selection of approximately 55 works from more than 20 private collections around San Diego, this exhibition aims to recognize that the cultural resources of our city are thriving not only within the walls of our museums, but also through the efforts of many committed individuals.
7:30 p.m., Wednesdays, October 7, 14, 21, and 28, 2015 This series of four lectures considers Pop art as something more than just an American art movement of the 1960s. Today, almost everyone recognizes the paintings of Andy Warhol or the sculpture of Claes Oldenburg as a historical (and powerful) critique of consumerism during the Great Society. But how were these works viewed at the time?

Hear the San Diego Master Chorale in concert, 5 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 18 at Torrey Pines Christian Church. Courtesy
n the second Sunday of each month, La Jolla United Methodist Church at 6063 La Jolla Blvd. offers a contemporary worship service aka Faith & Fun@Five. On Sunday, Oct. 11 at 5 p.m. in the church Fellowship Hall, the “U2Charist” experience will be presented. It is a worship service with communion, which is based around the songs of the Irish rock band U2. Since the Rev. Paige Blair, an Episcopal priest in York Harbor, Maine came up with the idea and held the first service in July 2005 “U2Charist” has been popping up in churches across the country. Bono, the leader of U2, supports the services by waiving the royalty rights to his songs — as long as the service offering goes to fight hunger. La Jolla United Methodist’s La Jolla United Methodist Church is located at U2Charist presentation will feature 6063 La Jolla Blvd. Milan Kovacevic video clips of U2 singing a number of their songs with the congregation encouraged to sing along. Additionally, excerpts of Bono’s speech “On the Move,” given in 2006 at the National Prayer Breakfast, will be shared. The public is invited to attend. (858) 454-7108. lajollaunitedmethodist.org u

Four fun concerts set symphony’s family series
Norbert Kniat
S
an Diego Symphony’s Family Festival is comprised of four, one-hour concerts performed by the San Diego Symphony, November-April, designed for ages 5-12 that open a world of imagination while offering children a chance to experience the grandness of a live performance on stage. Concerts are 2 p.m. at Jacobs Music Center, 750 B Street downtown San Diego. ■ Nov. 1: Walk Through Balboa Park, Sameer Patel, conductor. Taking inspiration from Balboa Park’s centennial year, the symphony offers music that represents the
park’s most iconic elements — the fountains, gardens, international cottages and world-class museums. ■ Dec. 20: Holiday Pops with Cirque Musica, Matthew Garbutt, conductor. Christmas Carols, an audience sing-a-long and this year’s guests — members of the Cirque Musica acrobatic troupe. ■ Feb. 20: Symphology: The Science of Sound, Sameer Patel, conductor. From the sound a bow makes to the beating of a drum, there are countless ways musicians make music. But how does it happen? What
makes a flute tweet and a horn toot? ■ April 17: Much Ado About Music: Shakespeare and the Symphony. Sameer Patel, conductor. In collaboration with The Old Globe Theatre, experience the music of the greatest composers whose inspiration came from the greatest playwright of all time. — If you go: Each adult Family Festival subscription purchased (four-concerts $44 or $88) includes a free child subscription. Single show tickets are $15-$25. (619) 235-0804. sandiegosymphony.com

Since her breakthrough debut with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 2007 (while still a student at the Curtis Institute of Music), Wang has established herself as an international sensation and a fixture among the world’s leading orchestras, regularly joining them on tours of the Americas, Europe and Asia. The symphony’s opening weekend (which includes the Saturday night OPUS
Gala, Special Concert and Street Party) will include two additional concerts. Wang will perform Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 9 “Jeunehomme” 8 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. Sunday, and also on the program are Strauss’ Overture to “Die Fledermaus” and Prokofiev’s Suite from “Romeo and Juliet” (compiled by Ling). The OPUS Gala 2015 chairs are June and Bob Shillman, Katherine and Mayor Kevin Faulconer, Joan and Irwin Jacobs, and Cathy and Lawrence Robinson, with additional support from Van Cleef & Arpels. The evening includes a cocktail hour, dinner and post-concert after party at The University Club atop Symphony Towers, which includes cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, desserts
and dancing. Saturday’s 8 p.m. concertgoers have the option of attending the post-concert “street party” on B Street that includes a “Champagne Toast.” The Saturday night concert features Wang performing Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 2 and Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Capriccio espagnol.”
Up next
Following the season opener, San Diego Symphony’s Jacobs Masterworks continues Oct. 23-25 with James Ehnes, one the foremost violinists of his generation. This series of concerts titled “Beethoven and John Adams” includes Ehnes performing the Beethoven Violin Concerto. Guest conductor Edo de Waart will lead
the orchestra in Adams’ “Harmonielehre.” He led the San Francisco Symphony in the world premiere of this piece in March 1985. During the last 30 years, it has been recorded five times and performed around the world. “Harmonielehre” is a massive work — its three movements span more than 40 minutes taking audiences on a powerful, emotional symphonic journey. u n If you go: Jacobs Music Center is at 750 B Street downtown San Diego.

Orange and Rosemary Infused Olive Oil n Ingredients: • 1 cup extra virgin olive oil • Rind from two oranges (Blood, Cara Cara, your choice) • 1 fresh rosemary sprig n Method: Peel rind from oranges, removing bitter white pith. Combine ingredients in a saucepan and heat on low for 20 minutes. Remove from heat, cool, and strain. Pour into spouted glass olive oil bottles. Enjoy as needed.
Kitchen Shrink Catharine L. Kaufman
Fall’s main squeeze is here!
O
range season has arrived with such varieties as Valencias, Cara Caras and Navels piled high in supermarket aisles and farmers markets. Christopher Columbus took a goodly supply of oranges along his voyages to protect his sailors from scurvy. Here’s why you should have a daily dose of sunshine.
n A Slice of Life: As healthful as it is delicious, this mighty carb is an immuneboosting Vitamin C powerhouse with a load of bone-strengthening calcium, bodybalancing potassium, Vitamin A for skin and ocular health, a slew of B’s for cell metabolism and nerve function, and Vitamin E, a warrior against toxins and other diseases. There’s more. Oranges have been linked to keeping kidney stones at bay, amping up heart health, regulating blood pressure, lowering cholesterol levels, kicking viral infections under the bus, and keeping the constitution regular. n Orange Up: The orange is believed to be a Pomelo and Mandarin hybrid. Globally there are more than 600 orange varieties, but here is a list of some California and Florida favorites: • One of the most popular oranges is the seedless Navel, so named because its blossom end resembles a belly button. Navels make great snacks, easy to peel and separate into segments for a juicy pick me up. Tip: The bigger the navel, the sweeter the orange. • Seedy, thin-skinned Valencias are great for juicing. There’s nothing more invigorating than a cool glass of fresh squeezed pulpy orange juice. Or shove a whole orange into the cavity of a duck or chicken before roasting. • The Moro, the most common type of Blood Orange, is a seedless, thin-skinned variety with a strikingly beautiful crimsontinted flesh. The Moro’s dramatic color and distinct taste with notes of raspberry come from high concentrations of the powerful pigment anthocyanin, an antioxidant that fends off free radicals. Sliced or segmented Moros should be shown off in everything from the traditional Sicilian blood orange winter salad with fennel bulbs and a drizzle of olive oil, chilled soups and sassy vinaigrette
dressings to gelatos and sorbets. Or whet your whistle with a blood orange Mimosa, Cosmopolitan, Sangria or smoothie. • The juicy, low acid Cara Cara, a type of navel hybrid has a distinct rosy flesh, rich in lycopene with hints of zesty cranberry. A splash of Cara Cara juice enlivens marinades, mocktails and cocktails, while the pretty pink segments or slices add eye candy and zip to pico de gallo and fruit cocktails, grilled chicken or halibut, trifles and flans. • Tangerines (Fairchild and Dancy), Mandarins (Satsuma, Honey, Royal), and Tangelos, a grapefruit and tangerine cross (Orlandos and Minneolas) are palm-sized spheres with loose, bright orange skin, easy to peel in one motion, and delightful as a snack, addition to quinoa and spinach salads, taboulis, cranberry relishes, chutneys and salsas, stir fries, parfaits, or rice pudding. With notes of honey, Tangerines and Mandarins are delicate nuggets, while Tangelos have a tart, sweet kick. n Lots of Appeal: Before you toss orange peels in the compost bin, think again. Those dimply rinds have four times the amount of fiber as the flesh, are diabetic friendly and contain a motherlode of flavonoid antioxidants to boost the immune system and curb inflammation. The peel also contains the precious orange oil that exudes the true, concentrated fruit essence. Zest or grate into scones, cakes, cookies, biscotti, quick breads or pancakes, risottos, pilafs, chilled soups, steamed vegetables, or a cup of hot cider. Shave on grilled wild caught salmon, seared scallops, shrimp skewers, Asian chicken or beef, rice pudding or Greek yogurt. Toss the whole peel in barbecue coals to infuse a fruity essence to grilled offerings. Add rinds to a bag of brown sugar to keep it moist. Whip up candied orange peels to accessorize cocktails or dial up your favorite dessert. Or infuse olive oil with the peel to ratchet up salads, stir fries, or simply use as a divine dipping sauce for your favorite crusty bread. u — For additional orange recipes, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com

New ‘Art of Music’ exhibit engages eyes and ears
Margaret and Herb Zoehrer interacted with ‘Beethoven’s Trumpet,’ a sound sculpture by John Baldessari.
By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Three years in the making, the new “Art of Music” exhibit at San Diego Museum of Art is the biggest show in SDMA’s recent history: a display of music-themed artworks from their permanent collection, along with loans from major museums and private collectors. On view are more than 200 paintings, sculptures, textiles, photographs, video and sound installations, and musical instruments from around the world. Although the show spans centuries and continents — and includes small treasures like the original manuscript of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony — the most impressive pieces are large and contemporary, like John Baldessari’s “Beethoven’s Trumpet (with Ear),” Chuck Close’s many-times-lifesize portrait of Philip Glass and Fernando Botero’s “Dancing in Colombia.” It’s a joy to see Matisse’s complete 20-piece “Jazz” series — but he’s modern too, and all four are Western artists, three of them very much alive. At the VIP members’ preview Sept. 25, attendees enjoyed the upbeat sounds of Third Coast Jazz Band and wandered through the galleries, happy to discover their own favorites, like the Dali “Romeo and Juliet,” an odd-looking African lyre, or the pair of early music videos by abstract
L Street Gallery director Kay Colvin, with a piece by Alexander Calder.
Now and then: John Cashman and SDMA trustee Debra Bean stand between Chuck Close’s 21st-century tapestry portrait of Philip Glass and an 18th century harpsichord.
Music, music, music! Since music was a major part of the 1915 Exposition in Balboa Park, San Diego Museum of Art will honor the Park’s centennial with monthly Third Thursday concerts at 7 p.m. ■ Oct. 15: Percussionists Red Fish Blue Fish ■ Nov. 19: Experimental sound artist Miya Masaoka ■ Free concerts 6-7:45 p.m. Wednesdays at Panama 66, the restaurant next door to the museum animator Oskar Fischinger. Hot Tip: Don’t just walk on by Tristan Perich’s “Microtonal Wall” in the last gallery. Move quickly alongside it, in both directions, and listen closely. Fun! u n If you go: “The Art of Music” remains on view through Feb. 7 at SDMA in Balboa Park. For hours and ticket prices call (619) 232-7931 or visit sdmart.org/art/ exhibit/art-music
Hello, Dali! Josefina Perez Simon poses with one of the paintings she loaned to the exhibit and her friends, Laura Cuevas and Elena Mola, who came up from Mexico City for the opening.
All that Jazz: Matisse’s Jazz series, and a Congolese ceremonial skirt that may have inspired him, draws the attention of Paul Shockley, currently creating ‘the ultimate audio tour’ for SDMA, and Portia Talbot, owner of The Art Shed in La Jolla.

Let’s Review Diana Saenger
Mercedes Ruehl triumphs as fashionista Diana Vreeland
W
hen Mercedes Ruehl assumes the persona of fashion icon Diana Vreeland (Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue) in The Old Globe’s “Full Gallop,” you sit up straight and adjust your ascot. This one-woman tour-de-force is onstage through Oct. 25 in Balboa Park and arbiters of style won’t want to miss it. Ruehl is quite at home on the set in Vreeland’s very, very, very riche-red New York apartment in August 1971, and her every word is Vreeland from her glory days to her grumpy recollections (cold-fired as editor of Vogue magazine at age 70) to the hint of a third career, post retirement as special consultant to The Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Vreeland breezes into the room with a commanding energy as she talks directly to the audience about the guests she has coming for dinner and her just-returnedfrom trip to Europe. In between giving orders to her assistant in the kitchen via an intercom about the night’s festivities, she lets us know she’s still in charge, post-firing — even though she’s short on cash, seems to be entreating guests to come by, and can’t remember
what’s his name … She compellingly reveals and recounts her habits, adventures, business decisions, discourses on color and style, and offers reflections about family, friends and rivals. Quite the namedropper, Vreeland relives her life through this ongoing evening as she deals with kitchen help and phone calls from her expected guests. Her nonchalant way of telling these stories is as quick as throwing a dart on a dartboard, and she earns chuckles from the audience over the conclusions she draws. Included are discerning moments when she picks up The New York Post to peruse a negative article about herself. She reads a few words, throws a fit and tosses the paper away, only later to repeat the same actions … could it be true as the paper infers, that she is a has-been? Academy, Golden Globe and Tony Award winner Mercedes Ruehl (“The Fisher King,” “Married to the Mob,” “Lost in Yonkers,” etc.) misses nothing in her amazing performance. She had to learn an enormous amount of dialogue for this show, and not to have another character to play it off for 90 minutes is challenging

Mercedes Ruehl stars as Diana Vreeland in ‘Full Gallop’ at The Old Globe Theatre. indeed. Her physicality, moments of passion, reactions to conundrums, and ability to laugh — even when reflecting on tough times — solidifies her performance. She truly earns her standing ovations. “Full Gallop” written by Mark Hampton and Mary Louise Wilson and directed by Andrew Russell, lets us know more about Diana Vreeland, but much more about Mercedes Ruehl and her talents. u — Editor’s Note: In 1984, Vreeland

‘Healing Wars’ no mask for the scars of conflict Let’s Review
Paul Hurley and Keith A. Thompson in ‘Healing Wars’
By Diana Saenger he innovative presentations of La Jolla Playhouse’s Without Walls (WoW) Festival have become a gripping community draw. As this year’s festival continues through Oct. 25 with more than 20 immersive and site-based works in and around the Playhouse Theatre District on the UC San Diego campus, “Healing Wars” is one to add to your must-see list. Conceived, directed and choreographed by Liz Lerman, “Healing Wars” is a multisensory experience that plays witness to the physical and psychological wounds of war throughout history. Lerman, with help from Playhouse designers, offers a stunning journey through the pains of war at a transformed Mandell Weiss Forum. An integral facet of the show is the self-paced, backstage prologue that contains amazing reminders of various wars with actors eloquently demonstrating hurt or loss through dance movements or recorded words. It sets the mode for more magic to come, such as nurse Clara Barton (Tamara Hurwitz Pullman) writing letters about the wounded. Once in the theater, performers Jeffrey Denman, Miko Doi-Smith, Meghan Frederick, George Hirsch, Paul Hurley, Ted Johnson and Keith A. Thompson offer an array of moves, representing everything from a wounded warrior to a struggling female soldier to a spirit whose job is to help the dying on their journey. Choreographer Lerman also discovered the power of words and an ongoing stream of words details the experiences of a wounded warrior. Lerman said her desire for “Healing Wars” was to intertwine stories with movement, text and visuals. This is one of the most unusual and significant presentations I’ve seen on stage. It’s an experience that will touch all who see it, and one that has far passed Leman’s objective. u

Of course, her owner went right up to her and checked her collar. There, on the collar, she found a ring with a note to the owner on it. The note was a marriage proposal from her then boyfriend (now husband). His brother and sister had assisted by hiding behind a tree, giving her treats to stay put. Anyhow, a family member thought the name Luna was beautiful and Luna’s mom also loved the name. “Her nickname has become “Luners”.

St. James to host icon art, Taize music event From St. James Reports
R
eligious icons — images of holy men and women or scenes — are often described as “windows into heaven” because of their ability to draw observers into the divine presence of God. Beginning in the sixth century, church leaders used icons to share the Word of God with followers who could not read. Modern icons continue to inspire the faithful and, in that tradition, St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church in La Jolla will showcase the works of Rev. Paige Blair, a nationally known iconographer. The Icon Art Show will run 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Oct. 9-11 and Oct. 17-18 in the church library at 743 Prospect St. The iconographer, who is the rector of St. Peter’s Episcopal Church in Del Mar, will greet guests at 5:30 p.m. on opening night (Oct. 9), and on Oct. 11 and 18 to discuss her works and answer questions. Original icons and posters will be for sale, with 10 percent of proceeds going to charity. “Although they are often seen as works of art, the purpose of icons is not for us to look at them but instead to pray through them,” said Rev. Blair, whose work is featured in the Episcopal Church’s national publication of daily meditations. “An icon invites us into a sacred reality beyond the image itself.” At 5 p.m. on the final day of the show (Oct. 18), St. James will hold a Taize Music Service where phrases from the Bible will be repeated and sung in canon. The service, arranged by St. James’ pastor for music ministries Steven Townsend, will be held in the church courtyard. Taize music originated in an ecumenical monastic order in Burgundy, France in 1940. It features repetition intended to aid meditation and prayer. “Taize music is simple, beautiful and uplifting,” said Midge Coburn, chair of the St. James Visual Arts Committee (VAC). “Combining the music with the icons should make for a meaningful and spiritual evening.” The events are free, open to the public and sponsored by the VAC and the Daughters of the King, an Anglican lay religious order for women. Tickets for the opening night reception are $25 at (858) 459-3421 or sjbts.org u

What is it you most dislike? Cruelty and dishonesty. It breaks my heart to see the atrocities that others suffer through war, hate and lack of resources to help children and the sick. What do you do for fun? Core Power yoga, browse fashion and art books at Warwick’s, organize closets (it’s so therapeutic), volunteer, dine over delectable food and drinks with friends, catch sunsets at WindanSea, and have great conversations with my son! What is your philosophy of life? Have gratitude and pay it forward full heartedly with zero expectations, and to enjoy life in the present moment of helping others. What clothing item in your closet will you never part with? I would gladly give everything away, but the “boxes of happiness” that I fill with mementos, concert tickets, holiday and birthday cards from friends, awards, clippings from charity events and photos are dearest to me.

True or False? Many countries in Europe and in the New World celebrate Christopher Columbus’ arrival in the Americas on Oct. 12, 1492. In the United States, Oct.12 is called Columbus Day; in Latin America, it is Dia de la Raza (Day of the Race), in the Bahamas, it is Discovery Day; in Argentina, it is Dia del Respeto a la Diversidad Cultural (Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity); and in Belize and Uruguay, it is Dia de las Americas (Day of the Americas). True. Though Columbus Day had been celebrated unofficially since Colonial days, it became an official holiday first in Colorado in 1906 and a federal holiday in 1937. In 1970, the holiday was moved to the second Monday of October. In Berkeley, California, Columbus Day was replaced with Indigenous People’s Day in 1992. u — randomhistory.com

Is Your Home Ready for El Niño? We’ve already seen the beginning signs of the El Niño that the National Weather Service predicts will begin its three-month peak sometime in October but may last through spring 2016. According to The Weather Channel reports, the forecast is for a strong but unpredictable El Niño, as polar ice reduction over the years since the 1997-1998 event will change the storm models. So what does this mean for you? If you’re a homeowner, you need to be prepared for above-average and sustained rain falls. In Southern California, we’re
used to storms that blow in and blow out after dropping a few inches of rain, maybe a foot over a week or so, leaving clear skies for much of the rest of the year. So are our homes. Where should you start? The roof. Have a close look yourself, or consult with an expert. If you see any cracks or gaps, get them sealed well before the peak rains begin. Also, apply a sealant, but make sure that you give it plenty of time to dry before the rains resume. If your roof has tiles or shingles, look for ones that might be broken, cracked, or missing, and have them replaced immediately. Also, check to see whether the metal flashing on your shingle roof is rusted or cracked. The sooner you get this done before the peak of El Niño, the better—you want any treatments to set. Next up, the gutters. This can be an easy fix. Drains and gutters transport rainwater safely to the main drain without affecting the foundation of your house. Make sure there is no clogging due to
accumulated leaves, twigs, stones or grit. These often clog the drainpipes and cause a back flow of water, which leads to major leakage problems in your ceiling. Even worse, there might be a leakage somewhere in between, causing the water to flood the foundation of your house. A cement sealant might come in handy here. Ideally, you should have your gutters checked and cleaned twice a year—certainly, El Niño adds an incentive to getting it done. Check for cracks in the ceiling and walls. If there are any along the edges of the ceiling, you may be particularly susceptible to seepage in the walls, which could eventually lead to flooding and the growth of hazardous mold and mildew inside the structure. Fill these with plaster or wall putty (which will also require repainting the walls or ceiling). Check doors and windows for any gaps that can let in rainwater. These gaps can be filled with a variety of sealing products, including brush seals. If you have a basement, go through this space
thoroughly, and consider purchasing a few sand bags, especially if you have a groundlevel window. Watch your wires. Any exposed electrical wiring needs to be checked, or there might be a risk of a short circuit. Also check for any loose wires, and make sure fixtures and outlets are covered properly. Occasionally check junction boxes during the storm to make sure they aren’t collecting water. Other flooding considerations: If you live in an area prone to flooding during large storms, don’t let dried leaves, fallen twigs, and any wilted blooms accumulate on your property, including your driveway, as they can block runoff drains. Check the trees near your home, and trim any branches that might give way during heavy rains or strong winds. Column continued at www.lajollalight.com/news/2015/ sep/17/Is-Your-Home-Ready-for-ElNino/

Morena Storage, also known as 5 Star Storage has flipped the traditional business model on its head. “If you have ever been to a storage business before, you know that they are all pretty much the same: Empty hallways, nobody around, dim lighting,” said Ellen Wayne, 5 Star Storage’s marketing manager. “We do storage differently here.” Locally owned with two locations Morena and Solana Beach, 5 Star Storage rolls out the red carpet to its customers. The company’s onsite storage experts are always ready with a free cup of coffee or cold bottle of water, as well as the guidance to help you find the most cost-effective and accommodating solution for your storage requirements.

With every room rented, 5 Star Storage will give you one of its company trucks and coordinates a staff member to help with loading your items at home and unloading them at your storage room. “It is a service that most of our customers take advantage of and are very grateful for the help,” Wayne said. “We also offer all the help our customers need while they are visiting their storage room.

And they have rewarded the company with plenty of referral business and Yelp reviews. “Our customers are very pleasantly surprised, I think, by the level of customer support we provide,” Wayne said. “We have many wonderful reviews online that contain great quotes from customers about how they feel when they visit our facility and leave our facility.” Call Morena Storage today to lock in your low price.

a Jollans Jerry and Pam Cesak co-hosted the Party for Charlotte’s House to raise funds for The Charlotte Medical Center in conjunction with the Rancho Coastal Humane Society. The pet hospital will be dedicated to their late cat, Charlotte. The Oct. 2 bash at Bahia Resort Hotel in Mission Bay, San Diego, also served as the final, KyXy 96.5 FM “Jeff and Jer Showgram” listener party since Jerry “Jer” Cesak is retiring after 33 years on the radio — and 27 of those years in San Diego.

Ann Romney to visit Warwick’s Books Oct. 15
I
n her heartfelt memoir, “In This Together: My Story,” Ann Romney speaks candidly about her journey with Multiple Sclerosis, a disease affecting more than 2.3 million people worldwide. As part of her national book tour, Romney will be at Warwick’s Books in La Jolla, 7812 Girard Ave., 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 15. The former First Lady of Massachusetts, author, and founder and global ambassador of the Ann Romney Center for Neurologic Diseases at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, shares in her book, intimate details from her initial diagnosis in 1998, the highs and lows of her treatment, and the sources of faith that gave her strength, and ultimately, transformed her life and that of her family. She also shares the wisdom of others who’ve inspired her to make what has been an astounding recovery. The mother of five sons, five daughters-in-law, and grandmother of twenty-three “is pretty no-holdsbarred about the challenges she faced and continues to face,” according to her publishers at St. Martin’s Press. u
