Riford neighbors step up challenge BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer Neighbors are threatening legal action against the nonprofit running the Riford Center and the city if a decision to put wheelchair access on the side of the building on Bonair Street rather than in the front isn’t rescinded. Bonair Street Neighborhood Group, which opposes Riford’s side ADA access plan, said it has retained the services of Theodore Pinnock, an attorney specializing in disabled access matters.
In a letter to Riford Board chair and attorney Glen Rasmussen, Pinnock presented his rationale, citing case law for why the ramp should be constructed at the front of the center at 6811 La Jolla Blvd. He requested a response from Riford directors by Aug. 3, which was after the Light’s press time. In a press release, Bonair Street Neighborhood Group said, “Wheelchair access can be easily achieved by constructing a ramp to the front

BY DAVE SCHWAB Staff Writer ep, those ubiquitous A-frame signs scattered throughout La Jolla hawking everything from food to real estate are still hanging around. Why doesn’t somebody do something about it? The answer has a lot to do with the city’s financial crisis — most everything does these days — and lack of staffing for enforcement. “The (city’s) Code Enforcement Department has been reduced to one person,” said La Jolla architect Ione Stiegler, who chairs La Jolla’s Planned District Ordinance committee, which is charged with ensuring rules and regulations regarding parking, signage, colors and materials used in building in La Jolla are adhered to. “City Code Enforcement visited our committee a little over a year ago and basically told us it’s just him in the entire city and that, unfortunately due to the circumstances, he has to focus on life-safety code infractions, so signage issues are pretty low on his priority list.” Also, Stiegler said, the PDO code was written so long ago that it sometimes doesn’t specifically address new types of signage,

First coastal panel gets spot near pier BY KATHY DAY kday@lajollalight.com In keeping with its mission statement of enriching “the environmental, social and cultural experience of La Jolla,” the La Jolla Community Foundation was set to install the first interpretive panel along the coastline on Wednesday and has lined up artists for two more murals. The colorful photo display, that was to be mounted on the railing along the walkway overlooking the beach south of Scripps Pier, shows “Species Found along the La Jolla Coast,” said Nigella Hillgarth, executive director of the Birch

added he has heard comments from local merchants concerned about getting their own signage in order. “A couple of businesses have said to me they don’t think their own banners are nice, and are in the process of removing them,” Coller said. “These businesses are taking their own action without any complaint.

materials, signage, outdoor patios and the like. Despite the fact that code enforcement is currently lacking with A-frames, Stiegler noted such signs “still are illegal and are discouraged.” Stiegler estimated there are 100 or more A-frame signs, of all sizes and persuasions, scattered around town. “Banners, pennants, flags, streamers, flairs, wind propellers, noise-making devices and other items shall not be permitted unless they are quality, corporation or institution flags, those displayed
from freestanding or wall-mounted flagpoles, and may not exceed one sign for every 100 feet of store frontage or five flags per premises for holiday decorations … ,” said Stiegler, reading from La Jolla’s sign regulations. She added inflatable signs are included in this category. There is one other thing Stiegler shared about La Jolla PDO’s jurisdiction over signs: “Our committee is not set up to be an enforcement committee. All we can do is what they (individual) can do, which is to bring it to the attention of code enforcement.”

Kiwanis breakfast an annual hit
Coast-Canyons council map draws praise By Karen Billing KarenB@rsfreview.com Local residents on Monday expressed support for the favored Coast and Canyons map, which has been absorbed into the preliminary San Diego City redistricting plan. At the UTC Forum Hall public hearing, La Jolla resident Joe LaCava, the architect of Coast and Canyons, thanked the commission for finding the plan viable. “You listened to the arguments and our proposal and vetted it against what the city charter required and saw that is the right thing to do for this corner of the city, not just because the residents wanted it,” LaCava said. “Coast and Canyons keeps La Jolla whole and makes it whole for the first time in 10 years.” In addition to bringing a piece of La Jolla back from District 2, the map also keeps the UC San Diego and University City communities intact and keeps communities of interest together such as Carmel Valley, Del Mar Mesa, Torrey Hills and Torrey Pines. “This plan has kept community planning areas whole, school districts whole and kept the most important coastal communities that affect all of us together,” said Rick Newman of the Carmel Valley Community Planning Board. The preliminary map was approved by the 2010 Redistricting Commission on July 21 with a 5-2 vote. District 1 City Councilmember Sherri Lightner praised the volunteer commission for reaching the home stretch after 10 long
months with a map that reflects San Diego’s diverse communities and accommodates a new ninth district and the city’s growth, “no easy task.” The UTC hearing was the fourth of five public post-map hearings and more than 40 people requested to speak. The final plan will take effect 30 days after its adoption. The proposed new District 1 is without Black Mountain Ranch, Rancho Penasquitos and Torrey Highlands, which have shifted to District 5. District 1 also keeps the western portion of the Los Penasquitos Canyon Preserve. A representative from the scientific community was pleased with keeping their unique biotech and scientific network intact, and Mel Hinton, a past president of the San Diego Audubon Society, said the new map also works from an environmental perspective. Hinton said the district’s appreciation for the environment and open space habitat is unlike any other and that the communities have worked together to protect it. Keeping La Jolla and University City from being split apart has been a large effort throughout the redistricting process. Resident Phyllis Minick said she never knew her community was called South La Jolla until the redistricting process began but said that she was glad that their “little tail on the dog of the general La Jolla area” was kept in District 1. For more on the preliminary map, visit sandiego.gov/redistricting.

From riFord, A1 door. The city has approved necessary rightof-way changes for this option. …” The neighbors’ letter challenges the Riford board’s claim that the “side entrance will have little impact on the adjacent residential street. This can only be true if it is not used.” They also contend “the board is fast‐tracking its proposal through the city permitting process without any public comment, bypassing the La Jolla Community Planning Association which normally vets such proposals. Changes in facade and right‐of‐way should be heard by the La Jolla PDO Committee for approval. … The RC Board has not consulted with the members of the facility, and has consistently refused requests by neighbors to put alternate views directly to the Board or members of the facility.” Responding to the Bonair neighbors’ letter, Rasmussen said, “Over two years ago, we proposed to put one entrance at grade (without steps) for all persons on Bonair Street. They (neighbors) didn’t want that.” “The additional side entrance we are building provides ADA conformance as well as a new emergency exit, within virtually the same distance of travel,” he said. “It is a false statement of ADA law to say that a single entrance is required in an older building.” “There’s no reasonable way to put the required wheelchair/walker entrance in the front,” continued Rasmussen. “Because of the way the building sits on the property, there would have to be demolition of the sidewalk, curb and narrowing of the street, which have far-reaching implications of cost and encroachments which gets us into a morass of permitting issues; plus that’s not our property, plus we don’t have a budget to do what they (neighbors) want. The solution we (Riford) have is 100 percent on our property and is 100 percent approvable, and we don’t get involved in any permit difficulties. When all is said and done, Rasmussen said, “We (Riford) sincerely do not believe there will be any negative impacts.” Riford neighbor Liana Bowdler, a member of the group challenging the action, said they believe the $207,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds the Riford received for the ADA upgrades would be used to upgrade the front entrance serving the able-bodied, instead of being used “for major ADA upgrades catering to everyone, including disabled senior citizens.” Riford neighbor Tricia Kaye said Riford hasn’t considered how the sidewalk path of travel to the side entrance will be leveled. “At the moment the slope is too steep in

Pinnock known for fighting for accessibility Theodore Pinnock is an attorney who’s found a niche seeking access for people with disabilities. Over the years, he’s filed hundreds of access lawsuits involving the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) against stores and businesses. Signed into law on July 26, 1990, the act is a wide-ranging law intended to make American society more accessible to people with disabilities. The act has typically led public and private entities to comply by physically adapting their facilities putting in disabled ramps, rails in restrooms, etc. Typically, businessowners receive a letter from Pinnock’s office alleging an ADA violation, anything from improper signage to improper dimensions for wheelchair access. Letters come with an offer to settle out of court for fees ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars. Pinnock made a sweep through La Jolla in June 2010 sending warning letters to two local businesses, WindanSea Veterinary Clinic and Kathleen Buoymaster Inc. interior designers. Both settled out of court. Several years ago Pinnock filed complaints against about 60 merchants in Julian’s commercial center. At least six settled suits out of court. parts for wheelchairs, particular at the part near the corner – this is not only non-compliant with the ADA, it is dangerous,” she said. “But more importantly, I think it is important to look at this project from the point of view of a person in a wheelchair or with a walker – would you prefer to travel 70 feet or 170 feet?” Gina Coburn of the City Attorney’s office said the Riford matter has been referred to them and their office will meet with city staff to discuss the issues. Mary Coakley and architect Don Goertz had presented a counterproposal for Riford ADA access calling for putting a ramp in at the front of the building. “If they’re going to remodel the front entry, they should also make it accessible for ADA persons,” said Goertz. “Having it on the side entrance, it’s still not going to be completely accessible. We’d like to see them go in and put in a front ramp and new stairs.”

A “flash” rip current hit La Jolla Shores beach just before 3 p.m. on July 28, resulting in 30 rescues in a short period of time, said Lifeguard Lt. Nick Lerma. “It affected about 100 people and 30 needed to be rescued,” said Lerma, noting the water temperature was warm, 70 degrees or above, and the beach was especially crowded in the middle of the summer tourist season. There were no fatalities or serious injuries, he added. “All available lifeguards were in the water, and we had to send for backup from other beaches to safeguard the rest of the people,” said Lerma.

Sciatica's Other Culprit Conventional wisdom has long held that damaged discs in the lower back, or spinal nerve problems were to blame for sciatica. In this painful condition, the sciatic nerve in the back of the leg is pinched and pain radiates down the leg. However, new research indicates that the cause of sciatica may actually be piriformis syndrome, a condition in which a muscle in the buttocks (called the piriformis) compresses or irritates the sciatic nerve. According to Loren Fishman, MD, Medical Director of Manhattan Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in New York City, piriformis syndrome is an underrecognized cause of sciatica. The good news is that physical therapy can help your sciatica. Your doctor may prescribe physical therapy as an alternative to back surgery. The physical therapists at Ability Rehab specialize in treating sciatica and low back pain that may be associated with it. Individualized treatments include, but are not limited to: stretching and strengthening targeted muscles of the hips, low back and core, improving walking and postural mechanics, the use of cold, heat, massage, ultrasound or electrical stimulation therapies. The above mentioned therapies can help to decrease or eliminate pain caused by this condition. P.S. Discuss physical therapy vs. surgery with your doctor. Ability Rehab is here to help.

Conrad Prebys donates $45 million to new Scripps cardiovascular center Scripps Health’s fundraising efforts for its new cardiovascular center got a major boost last week with the announcement that area developer and philanthropist Conrad Prebys was donating $45 million to the project at the Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla campus. The donation is the largest ever given to Scripps and biggest by Prebys. The sevenstory center, on which construction began last month, will be named the Prebys Cardiovascular Institute. Prebys is president of Progress Conrad Construction and Prebys Management Company, a real estate and development company that he founded in 1966. A press release notes “it will be financed by operating revenues, borrowing and community support. Including Prebys’ donation, $80 million in philanthropic gifts have been raised toward the $125 million fundraising goal.” Prebys said he was bedridden for one year in his youth because of a heart infection caused by stepping on a rusty belt buckle.
“That experience from my childhood never left me,’’ Prebys said. “Now here I am, part of what will be the best heart care center there is, with the greats of the medical world, research and innovation that will help mankind.’’ He has made significant contributions to UCSD for the Conrad Prebys Music Center, the Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute for the Conrad Prebys Center for Chemical Genomics (CPCCG), as well as the Salk Institute, the San Diego Zoo, Boys and Girls Clubs of East County, the San Diego Opera and the Old Globe. In 2006, Prebys made a $10 million gift to Scripps Mercy Hospital to enhance and expand emergency and trauma services at that facility. Scripps Health considers the $456 million cardiovascular institute, which will integrate cardiovascular programs throughout the organization, to be the cornerstone of a 25year plan to redevelop its La Jolla location. Patients of Kaiser Permanente will also use the facility. The 383,000-square-foot institute — with 108 inpatient beds in private rooms, 60 intensive care beds, six operating rooms and up to six cardiac catheterization labs — is expected to open in four years.

Jerome’s joins Shores beach cleanup effort Jerome’s Furniture (Jerome’s) is taking part in I Love a Clean San Diego’s “Adopt a Beach” program this summer. As the kick-off, the company invites the community to participate in a beach clean-up from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Aug. 6 at La Jolla Shores beach. All volunteers will have a chance to win prizes and enjoy refreshments from Jerome’s and KYXY as part of the “Life’s a Beach” campaign.
Jerome’s chairman, Jerry Navarra, has a home in La Jolla Shores. I Love A Clean San Diego is the San Diego County coordinator of the statewide Adopt-A-Beach program. This program is great for groups who want to participate in volunteer work on an ongoing basis. Visit adopt.sd.org. Volunteers can contact ILACSD at 619704-2778 or jdeleon@cleansd.org to register in advance or simply show up that day.
From murals, a1 birds, sea life such as grunion and even the giant kelp that sits offshore. Buzz Woolley, a community foundation board member who is spearheading the effort, and Hillgarth have said they envision as many as 10 to 12 panels, placed along the coastline from Scripps Pier to Bird Rock. Locations for the next panels are still being identified. Buzz Meanwhile, the foundaWoolley tion’s art advisory committee has selected artists for the fourth and fifth creations of the Murals of La Jolla program, said Linda Forsha, an art adviser for the program. Eight to 10 of the temporary art installations are planned, with rotations set for every one to three years. Once fundraising is complete, the newest artwork — overlooking La Jolla Cove — will be done by John Baldessari, a conceptual artist whose work questions “how we perceive and interpret the world around us,” according to his staff. The other, by Ryan McGinness, whose work “consists of an amalgam John of icons and symbols that re- Baldessari solve the clinical graphic aesthetics of media as vast, contemplative fields of intimate mediation,” will go up on the back wall of the Hotel Parisi facing the parking lot on Herschel Avenue. The hotel entry is at 1111 Prospect St.
The art project is one of the undertakings of the La Jolla Community Foundation in an effort “to beautify our village, to build community and to recall La Jolla’s tradition as an art colony,” according to Phyllis Pfeiffer, foundation president and publisher of the Light. The group has also provided funds to keep the fire rings at La Jolla Shores. The initial mural was painted in September 2010 on the back of the Lapiz ryan Building at 7724 Girard Ave. mcGinness Two others followed. Pfeiffer recently received approval from Mayor Jerry Sanders for the art program. He agreed with the group’s position that the privately funded murals on private buildings are not “signs,” and thus fall outside the purview of the San Diego Municipal Code. The foundation board apprises the La Jolla Planned District Ordinance Committee about locations in advance of the work going up but is not required to do so, Pfeiffer noted in a letter to Sanders. Anyone interested in contributing to the Murals of La Nigella Hilgarth Jolla or the coastal panel effort or with an idea about a future panel or mural should contact Trudy Armstrong at Trudy@sdfoundation.org or (858) 674-6979. The La Jolla Community Foundation is a partner of the San Diego Foundation.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS My Art Shed: It’s about ideas, too Teaching art is a transcendent experience for Porschia Talbot, whose My Art Shed in La Jolla is a working gallery where experienced artists and educators encourage students to go “outside the lines.” The Australian native said it’s always been her dream to find a way to combine her affinity for children with her love of teaching and art. That dream became My Art Shed studio at 7426 Girard Ave., which Talbot uses to offer a plethora of art instruction to all ages. “We pretty much do every form of art — sculpture, painting, drawing,” she said, noting her emphasis is always on building creativity which she claims can bridge educational gaps by teaching youth to “think creatively or outside the box,” as opposed to education centered around testing. Talbot said her classes put pupils ahead of the game by encouraging them to be “forward-thinking.” “My classes are not just trying to teach them fine art, but also trying to incorporate a way to give them confidence,” she said. “So we do assignments and come up with ideas to really encourage that confidence in them so that they can go out and apply it to different areas of their lives, change their entire perspective.” The art instructor said her approach is both “holistic and empowering.”
Porschia Talbot conducts a class. “They (students) get more than just a few painting lessons,” she added. Noting she’s “pretty lucky” to have three schools within 500 yards of her front door, Talbot said it makes it “a nice little local spot” to teach art to everyone from toddlers to seniors, during the day, at night, on weekends and in summer camps. “It’s a bit unique because you can buy a package of classes, but don’t necessarily have to sign up for every class,” said Talbot of her pricing. “It’s like a credit system where you can drop in on classes, though there are some limits with capacity. You only pay for what classes you attend, so there’s a lot of flexibility.” For information about My Art Shed call (858) 454-4499 or visit www.myartshed.com.
Financial Advisors plan long-term care workshop
The Financial Advisors Radio Series is sponsoring upcoming educational workshops on a very important topic for all — the issue of living too long and the potential financial devastation of the costs of long-term health care. Today, people are living longer — with the fastest growing element of our society people 86 and older. We routinely insure against potential adverse events such as fire insurance on our homes, auto insurance, life insurance, etc. Yet, the chance of requiring some type of long-term care Aubrey may be much greater Morrow than any other risk. Here’s the range of long-term health care costs in Southern California in 2010: • Home health care aide hourly: Rates $21 - $28 per hour ($5,000 to $6,700 per month); • Assisted living average monthly rate is over $3,000 per month; • Nursing home semi-private room averages $227 per day ($6,900 per month
or over $80,000 per year). Private room over $100,000 per year. How would you, your spouse or your parents pay for these costs? Many people solve the problem by purchasing a long-term health policy which may never be needed — and the funds are gone forever. You use ’em or lose ’em. There is a solution in the form of an insurance company-like CD — where a lump sum: • Helps you pay for long-term care if you need it; • Provides an income tax-free death benefit to your heirs if you don’t; • Is offered with a 100 percent moneyback guarantee, and • Provides a way to help protect your retirement income from the risk of longtern care expenses. Attend any of these free noon to 1:30 p.m. educational workshops: • San Juan Capistrano — Aug. 23 • Rancho Bernardo — Aug. 24 • San Diego — Aug. 25.

‘Smart contact lens’ gives insights into glaucoma lenses. From this monitoring, doctors seek to obtain a detailed description of a patient’s IOP and eye health. News release at http://bit.ly/ mWkJX8.
Research Report
By Lynne Friedmann
UCSD Shiley Eye Center has launched the first largescale U.S. clinical trials of a futuristic “smart contact lens” that measures internal eye pressure — a key risk factor for glaucoma, the second leading cause of preventable blindness in the world. Though the causes of glaucoma remain murky, high intraocular pressure (IOP) or excessive pressure within the eye appears to be causal in many individuals, promoting painless deterioration of the optic nerve. Accessing a patient’s risk of glaucoma is currently limited to an occasional pressure reading and tests during an eye exam. Smart contact lens (called Triggerfish) continuously measure IOP within the eye via a circular strain gauge, antenna, and a microprocessor to wirelessly transmit data. Patients in the study wear the Triggerfish for a 24-hour period, every six or so months, then discard the
Mapping plant protein interactions An international team, that includes the Salk Institute of Biological Research scientists, report the mapping and early analyses of thousands of protein-to-protein interactions within the cells of Arabidopsis thaliana — a variety of mustard that is to plant biology what the lab mouse is to human biology. The four-year study doubled the plant protein-interaction data available to scientists. Researchers hope that this and future studies will lead to advancements in understanding plant biology and putting that knowledge to use for human benefit: making agricultural plants more resistant to drought and diseases, more nutritious, and generally more useful. Even as a preliminary step the new map is useful. For example, researchers were able to sort protein interaction pairs they found into functional groups, revealing networks and “communities” of proteins that work

A simple solution requires action to cut sign clutter Our view Our front-page story about sign clutter today touches on a topic that will require the cooperation of all of our merchants. The La Jolla Village Merchants Association members have come up with a long list of ways to improve the business district, from organizing events to bring people to town to working on beautification projects that will make it a more pleasing place when they get here.

Whatever the issue is with the rules, it’s obvious many just ignore them. That’s where we all come in. There’s one simple step that would go a long way toward taking the “tacky” out of the Village — follow the rules. If every business owner were to take down the A-frame signs, banners and flags that have cropped up on way too many curbs and corners, La Jolla

www.lajollalight.com
The Coastal Commission’s July 14 unanimous vote to protect the public’s access from the foot of Princess Street to the La Jolla Underwater Park and State Marine Reserve reinforced its prior decision in 1979. At that time, City of San Diego Park and Recreation’s Aquatic Director, George Loveland, and Dorothy Muth, who headed the City’s Park and Recreation Board’s 1970s Beach Access Study, wrote: “The general public use of Princess Street Point and the subject property has been noted to exist for a long time and for access to a variety of recreational activities there and at the adjacent shoreline, e.g., access to the pocket beach for sunbathers, and swimmers, skin divers, and surfers, and for people observing the marine life…” The point itself has also served as a scenic overlook for sightseers.”(Loveland: 3/20/79) “Therefore, the above subject public access at Princess Street has had over 10 years of study, research and recommendations. … Every study and every report/recommendation has FIRMLY stated that Princess Street access of vital importance for retention.” (Muth: 3/23/79) The California Constitution and Califor-
nia Coastal Act protect the public’s prescriptive rights of access where acquired through the public’s historical use, and in 1979 the Coastal Commission unanimously determined this Princess St. trail qualified under those laws. While the property owners got what they wanted and finished their house in 1980, they failed to record the offer to dedicate (OTD) an access easement, but instead, constructed a fence and walls to block off the historic trail. The property owners have received the beneficial use of their property, but the public’s rights went unprotected. Mr. Kretowicz recently applied for a coastal permit to approve his unpermitted construction “after the fact”; and requested to delay the offer to dedicate the easement until 15 years after his and his wife’s death. In granting him even more development rights, the commission once again, required the OTD be recorded PRIOR to issuance of the Coastal Permit Amendment. I hope Mr. Kretowicz will honor the commission’s past and recent decisions by recording the offer to dedicate an easement for the public’s use and enjoyment now, not many years later. Mr. Kretowicz, tear down that wall. n For an extended version of this piece, go to www.lajollalight.com/la-jolla-news/news/ opinion/.
would immediately look better. While we recognize the need to attract customers, consider the fact that these signs might be having the opposite effect and driving people away from your doors. So step outside and take a look down Girard Avenue or Pearl Street or La Jolla Boulevard. What’s your first impression? If it’s the same as ours — the plethora of illegal signs is a blight on our Village — take yours down. La Jolla will be better for your action. We say thanks in advance.
COmmunity Leader’s view
LJ shores association keeps tabs on key issues auDrey D. Keane Chair, La Jolla Shores Association The La Jolla Shores Association continues to work for the community. Clean oceans and beaches are a top priority. The city of San Diego recently presented a proposal to replace the storm sewers on Avenida de la Playa and to build a new outfall structure on the beach. This area has been the site of significant flooding near the boat launch due to the undersized, outdated current structure. A new modern system will prevent storm water, debris, and pollution from flowing directly into the Marine Reserve (a state designated Area of Special Biological Significance) providing benefits for future generations. Two of our board members, Tim Lucas and Terry Kraszewski, will serve as representatives on a Construction Mitigation Advisory Group that will work direct-
ly with the City Engineering and Capital Projects department. The advisory group will also have representatives from the La Jolla Community Planning Association and the La Jolla Shores Merchants Association. The goal is to minimize the impact of construction on traffic and parking, while developing a long term solution to the pollution problem. Detailed information about the project is available at the city website : http://tinyurl. com/3v95hpb. The board of directors has also reviewed the issue of applying floor area ratio (FAR) limits in La Jolla Shores. The FAR is a calculation of the ratio of a building size to its lot size. Since the year 2000, the La Jolla Shores Planned District Ordinance (PDO) has included language indicating that the citywide FAR limits should be applied to the La Jolla Shores area. Sources have indicated that the FAR

the best place for divers in la Jolla is children’s Pool yOur view DaviD W. valenTine La Jolla Mr. Lomac’s view sounds reasonable and is essentially correct. La Jolla Shores Beach is likely far safer for children than the Children’s Pool and is likely a far safer entry for divers as well (on 28 July,
the day Mr. Lomac’s view was published 100 rescues were made by lifeguards at La Jolla Shores). But that does not mean that the Children’s Pool Beach should be given over to seals nor should humans be excluded as seal activists espouse. Children’s Pool beach offers the safest access for divers who want to hunt with spear guns, search for lobster or just view the beauty of the rocky underwater area. The Cove has restrictions which many divers find too confining, Shell Beach is very dangerous, and South Casa is likewise unpredict-
able (this area has been named “Mermaid Beach” by seal activists but “Wipeout Beach” by locals). Mr. Lomac’s view is that the Children’s Pool should be given over to seals (and seal activists) to the detriment of swimmers, snorkelers and recreational divers. In the same Light edition the new lifeguard tower for the Children’s Pool was mentioned. It is beyond me how the city could spend $3.8 million on a 766-square-foot structure to offer viewing of marine life for visitors and not safety for swimmers.

A look back at the life of broadcast pioneer Jack O. Gross BY DAVE SCHWAB daves@lajollalight.com Today cable TV with its innumerable channels covering every imaginable niche is commonplace, but back in the early days, television was a gamble with industry pioneers blazing trails uncertain if — or where — they would lead. One of those post-World War II broadcasting pioneers in San Diego was Jack O. Gross, who came down from Los Angeles to convert KFMBAM radio station into KFMB Channel 8, San Diego’s first local TV station, which debuted May 1, 1949. The station went on the air with then-San Diego mayor Harley Knox flipping a switch to turn on the transmitter. The inaugural event was a community milestone with crowds collecting in front of the few television sets around — only about 1,500 San Diegans owned one. Five hundred gathered in front of two sets alone at one downtown San Diego music store.
“Jack had a very good job working in Los Angeles for Warner Brothers Pictures running one of their radio stations and he heard about a struggling radio station in San Diego that had been taken over by a bank,” recalled Bill Fox, a Gross contemporary, nephew and understudy who came to San Diego to live with Gross and his family to learn the trade just two days after KFMB TV first aired. “He said, ‘I’ll come in and run it — you don’t have to pay me anything during this year, maybe I can turn it around.’ He came in and turned it around and made a success of it by the end of the year.” Gross had the Midas touch when it came to broadcasting, said Fox. “Programming, sales, management — he just knew how to operate,” he said, noting Gross was physically attractive and a magnet people were attracted to. “Anybody who knew him — liked him,” he said. “He was more like a
movie star than a businessman.” “He was a pioneer,” said Gross’s granddaughter Lauren, an agent at Keller Williams Realty in La Jolla. “He was one of those people who did a deal with a handshake.” Lauren noted her grandfather — “a visionary; he just had a vision” — was always generous in mentoring anyone interested in radio or broadcasting. “He would just stay on the phone for hours with them,” she said, adding he also had the common touch. “He treated everybody, whether he was the guy who pumped gas at the gas station or a president of a network, with great respect.” Gross, who died in 1985 at age 79 of Lou Gehrig’s disease, managed his first radio station in St. Louis, Mo., at age 14. Besides broadcasting, he was also a partner in the San Diego Padres when the ballclub played in the Pacific Coast League. Fox said Gross also dabbled in

COURTESY San Diego real estate. “He played a role in building the Shelter Island Inn,” he said, adding that Gross was also close friends with notable San Diego entrepreneurs, including Sol Price of Price Club. “Jack and his wife Loretta were
the first couple to be named cochairs of the United Jewish Federation Drive,” Fox said. “He was quite a guy, he was really kind of magical,” he added.. “He gave a lot of really great people their start. I think about him a lot. I miss him.”
Trust your instincts when making your college decision STUDENT VIEW BY ROGER LI Former La Jolla High Student As my tumultuous college admissions process drew to a close, I felt a profound sense of relief. I had gotten rejected from one of my top choice schools, but I still could choose from several other schools that I had grown to love. Immediately, I ruled out Vassar, UCLA, UC Davis and NYU. Vassar’s student body was far too East Coast preppy for me. I wasn’t keen on spending four years in Los Angeles
or Davis. NYU had the overwhelming size of Berkeley along with the astronomical price of a private university. By process of elimination, I was left with Amherst, Swarthmore, Berkeley and the University of Pennsylvania. I was almost positive that I would be attending Penn. Its focus on interdisciplinary learning, the resources of Wharton (its business school), and its reputation as the “social Ivy” were all reasons that pushed me toward Penn. Amherst was too isolated and I didn’t want to deal with the consistent budget cuts at Berkeley. Swarth-
more’s student body seemed too “alternative.” But because Swarthmore was a 20-minute train ride from Penn, I decided to visit both schools on a college visit during Spring Break. Throughout my visit, I felt magnetism toward Swarthmore that I didn’t feel toward Penn. Swarthmore had an idyllic campus, close to the city, yet still enclosed in a bubble of academia. For a variety of reasons, however, I still chose Penn despite my apprehensions. During these few weeks, I entirely forgot about Columbia. I wrote a ballsy waitlist letter, which mentioned the Real Housewives of New York City, the picturesque beaches
of Colombia and my obsession with gourmet food. Because few students get off the waitlist, I wasn’t afraid to write a letter that was unabashedly “me.” As fate would have it, two weeks after I committed to Penn, I received an acceptance to Columbia. Although I was elated, I only had 10 days to make a decision. My apprehensions about Penn resurfaced; I took a risk and chose the school that was never one of my top choices. I knew in my gut that I was making the right decision. Once I paid my deposit, I felt like everything had finally fallen into place. I was officially going to college!

Reporting car theft leads to arrest CHRIS JOHNSON La Jolla
I totally agree with the article, “Do your part to stop car thieves” from the July 28 edition. I am already signed up for the SDPD eWatch notifications. In fact, I already took an offensive approach against the thieves who target La Jolla Shores. On July 18, at about 1800 hours, I was walking around the streets near La Jolla Shores and witnessed a car burglary at the 8400 block of Paseo Del Ocaso. It wasn’t for sure that these men were really stealing from
this car while they were doing it, but I jotted down their license plate just in case. After they left, I inspected the vehicle they were taking stuff out of and noticed the broken window and glass on the ground. There was another witness who was down the street as well. I confirmed with him as to what we saw and I called 911 and gave them the suspects’ description and vehicle description with the license plate. I got a call from a SDPD detective three days later and asked me for my statement again. She said an arrest had been made, but couldn’t give me any further details. Since that incident on July 18, I’ve noticed less auto burglaries in the past two weeks. I think these suspects were two of the main people hitting cars down by the beach.
FROM SHORES, A14 limits are not always followed and as a result, the LJSA Board voted 9-3-1 to recommend that the city enforce the regulations. We welcome additional input on this and other matters of concern to the community. Our next meeting is September 14 at 7:00 pm in Building T-29 at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography campus.

Close Encounters of the Squid Kind La Jolla adventure awes photographer By Steven Mihailovich on Schwartz has been photographing marine life for the past four years and he’s good at it. Good enough for 15 magazines such as Field & Stream, Sport Fishing and Marlin to grace their covers with his photos. Schwartz said he travels far and wide to get his shots of exotic fish, such as marlin in pristine tropical waters, to destinations like Hawaii, Mexico and the Caribbean islands among others, where he has landed in pursuit of his prized subjects. However, when Schwartz and fishing buddy Josh Pruitt launched their kayaks in the predawn hours of June 20, none of his many expeditions across the globe prepared him for what he found just one mile off the coast of La Jolla: a large shoal of squid swimming near the surface by his kayak. “The squid encounter was super special,” Schwartz said of the experience. “It’s expensive to go to the places I go to get the pictures I get. With this, I didn’t have to get on a plane and bring my gear. It

was completely unexpected and I was back at my house in half an hour.” That day, the pair had kayaked for hours and Pruitt hooked a 40-pound white sea bass while Schwartz snapped
photos of it. At about noon, they chanced upon the shoal of red squid just underneath them, which Schwartz estimates to have been about 20 feet by 30 feet, or the size of two SUVs.
What brought you to La Jolla? I was born in San Diego in 1939 and our family moved to La Jolla in 1950.
Typically found at the bottom during the day, the squid were at the surface because big fish were hunting below, according to Schwartz.

Pianist Marc-Andre Hamelin
Pianist olga Kern
Violinist Midori
School of Moscow, and later earned a degree at The Moscow Conservatory. She was the Gold Medalist at the 2001 Van Cliburn International Competition. Kern has been described as a magnetic performer with topnotch technique. She will introduce Vladislav, who will play three pieces. Kern selected a challenging program, which Beach called “fiendishly difficult and demanding.” When music director Jimmie Lin saw the schedule proposed, he exclaimed, “It is impossible for anyone to play such a difficult series!” The music scheduled includes Liszt, Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, Shostakovich, Chopin, Prokofiev and Balakirev. One of the most interesting aspects of the concert will be the pieces by Schumann and his wife Clara, who each envied the other’s abilities.
• For the second concert, French-Canadian pianist Marc-Andre Hamelin will team up with New York cellist Alisa Weilerstein on Aug. 17 for a program that includes Barber’s Sonata for Violoncello and Piano, Op.6; Revel’s Gaspard de la nuit; and, Brahms Piano Quintet in F Minor, Op.34. Hamelin, who is 51, was born in Montreal. He is considered to be a wizard of technique and likes to perform obscure and demanding pieces. He won the 2008 Juno Award for Classical Album of the Year. Weilerstein, who is 29, was born in Rochester, New York to a musical family. She is a champion of contemporary music and has a B.A. in Russian history from Columbia University. Weilerstein plays a 1790 William Forster cello. “I am just in love with Weilerstein; I have her pic-
ture right above my desk,” Beach said. “She is such an extraordinary and unforgettable musician.” • The third concert will feature Japanese-American violinist Midori on Aug. 24, coming fresh from an appearance at the Royal Albert Hall in London. Born in Osaka, Midori was originally taught by her mother. She was discovered by Zubin Mehta and introduced by him at the New York Philharmonics annual New Year’s Eve concert in 1982. Midori has an M.A. in psychology and plays a 1734 Guarnerius cello. Her playing has been described as flawless, immaculate, and breath taking, and she has formed a foundation that helps teach children music. Midori will perform Gliere’s Duets for Violin and Cello, Schumann’s String quartet in A Major, Op. 41, No. 3, and Schubert’s String Quartet in C Major, D. 956.

Subtle changes at Delicias keep it close to customers’ hearts By Kelley Carlson elicias put down roots in Rancho Santa Fe about 20 years ago, and has since blossomed into an award-winning, cutting-edge establishment. A recipient of Wine Spectator Magazine’s Best of Award for Excellence, the restaurant has recently introduced the iSomm application, created and trademarked by Delicias owner Owen Perry. The entire wine list — which consists of 1,200 labels, according to floor manager Branden Rinker — can be accessed via an iPad. A sommelier is also on staff to assist with selections. Other changes have occurred recently at the establishment. Patrons will find more pizzas and pastas on the menu, such as the House Smoked Salmon Pizza, Mac & Cheese with black winter truffle and Serrano ham, and a Risotto of the Day. Some prices have also been lowered, according to executive chef Michael Knowles, and a full tapas menu is now offered.

On The
Menu Recipe
Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured restaurant online at lajollalight.com. Just click ‘Get The Recipe’ at the bottom of the story. ■ This week: Delicias’ Sherry-Glazed Confit Pork Belly (with caramelized fuyu persimmon, pistachio and buttered crab) There are theme days as well. Thursdays is Burger Night, which actually commences with grilling on the patio during lunchtime, but extends into the evening with specialty patties. In addition, there’s Fiesta Friday, in which street tacos are offered for $3 at the build-your-own taco bar. Despite the changes, Delicias still retains the influence of celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck, who developed the original concept and design of the site. Knowles worked directly with Puck at other restaurants, and continues
to provide the casual comfort California cuisine Delicias has been known for offering. “The approach on food is from farm to table,” Knowles said. “I try to know where the food comes from, whether it’s pig, chicken, (etc.).” He added that they try to make as many items in-house as possible, such as ketchup, cheese and charcuteries. Along with pizzas and pastas, there are plenty of other delectables: appetizers such as Monterey Bay Crisp Calamari; specialty salads; entrees such as Rinker’s favorite,
Miso Glazed Halibut; sandwiches, including the Colorado Lamb Burger; and house-cut steaks. Desserts vary from cheeses to Carlsbad Strawberry Short Cake. Children have their own special menu, and can color while they wait for their food. The kids’ menu has everything from Cheese Pizza to Grilled Prime Flatiron Steak. For dessert? Root Beer Floats. “That’s a big draw ... adults order them, too,” Rinker said. When enjoying the dishes at Delicias, customers have several seating options. The patio near the entrance is shaded by green umbrellas, with two fire pits. Patrons can observe passers-by along Paseo Delicias. Just inside the front door is the dimly lit, full-service bar, where guests can enjoy happy hour or an entree from the main menu while watching TV on a set high in a corner. The main dining room, with its Mediterranean decor and light brown theme, features banquet
tables with white tablecloths, a large fireplace and French doors providing views of the patio. There are plants in the corners, several black chandeliers overhead, and skylights to provide a soft glow. Toward the back is the courtyard, which has a fireplace, heat lamps and a retractable awning overhead to allow for plenty of sunlight or a view of the stars. Rinker said entertainment is occasionally provided by the jazz band, Joe Satz Trio. The best way to get to know Delicias is to do the food and wine tasting menu, Knowles said. “You get to try a little bit of all the dishes on the menu ... and you experience the sommelier as well,” he added. The busiest times at the restaurant tend to be Thursday through Saturday nights, with reservations highly recommended on Thursdays, Rinker said. For those who choose not to dine in or take out, Delicias offers delivery service to residents of the Covenant area.

www.lajollalight.com FROM SQUID, B1 In addition, the squid were congregating around the kayaks for protection against the birds lunging from above for a feast. Yet Schwartz said he hesitated before diving into the waters because squid are naturally skittish around humans. “Was there any point in getting in the water?” Schwartz said he asked himself. “Because if I get in, by the time I’m in, they’ll disappear.” Schwartz had the skill, the equipment, the experience, and that day, the luck as well, because the seven- to eightinch squid stayed put when he entered the water — probably because of their unusual situation, Schwartz said. In fact, Schwartz’s luck was gushing. The waters were uncommonly clear and even the numerous settings on his camera for lighting, shutter speed and depth of field were perfect. “If those aren’t right, you don’t get to change them,” Schwartz said. “That was the FROM 10 QUeStIOnS, B1 If you hosted a dinner party for eight, whom (living or deceased) would you invite? My list would include Ben Hogan (for his intensity); Johnny Carson (for his humor); My dad, Marvin K. Brown (I’d love to see him again); Steve Jobs (for his creativity); Barry Goldwater (for his philosophy); George Patton (for his attitude); Bob Lutz (for his experiences in the car business) and Vince Lombardi (for his passion and motivational skills).

most bizarre thing. Everything worked right. If it didn’t work out, I wouldn’t be talking about it ... I’ve seen a lot of weird stuff in the water. The thing about this is it was the right place and the right time. I could go (to that spot) every day for five years and never have it happen.” The 41-year-old Schwartz said his squid story would be used further to inspire his students to write about their own experiences. He’s been teaching fourth- and fifthgraders at Garrison Elementary School in Oceanside
since 1997. To sharpen their writing skills, Schwartz said he creates blogs for them and requires them to make entries on a regular basis. (More at kidslikeblogs.org) “Writing isn’t taught a lot because teachers are under pressure to come up with great test scores,” Schwartz said. “Tests are multiple choice, so teaching writing is a luxury.”

‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels’ take Parker Auditorium stage By Jenna Jay Full Circle Theatre will present the exuberant musical “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” at La Jolla High School’s Parker Auditorium, Aug. 4-7. Karina Wiener directs the show with assistance from Ann Boutelle, head of the theater department at La Jolla High School. “The people involved in the production are all students of some kind,” Boutelle said. “There are college students and some high school students. A lot of the kids met during their high school years in the National Comedy Theatre improv. They’re doing basically all of the creative design and choreography and dancing.” The newly resurrected Full Circle Theatre boasts a core of performers who came to Boutelle with the idea of presenting “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” following last summer’s performance of “The Thirty-Nine Steps.” On selecting “Scoundrels,” Boutelle said, “It was just a

They came to me said, ‘Can we do this?’ and I was like ‘OK!’ Everybody I know who saw the musical really enjoyed it. It’s very silly and funny.” The cast of 13 began rehearsals in mid-June. “They are bringing the energy to it,” Boutelle said. “They want to use the space,
About the show ■ The musical premiered in San Diego on Sept. 22, 2004, before moving to Broadway in January 2005. It closed on Broadway on Sept. 3, 2006 after 626 performances. It’s based on the 1988 film, starring Steve Martin and Michael Caine, and centers on two con men living on the French Riviera.
want to entertain the community, want to work on the skills and craft they’ve been developing. Many of them are very serious about performing as a career, and I think it’s great that they’re coming back together again to work together and learn from each other.” This is the second year for Full Circle Theatre to present a production in La Jolla. Last year, at the urging of La Jolla High School theater students Katheryne Penny and Brendan Milove (two performers also involved in this year’s production), Boutelle resurrected Full Circle after several years of dormancy. Full Circle Theatre began as a local performing arts company in 2000, established by Boutelle and her husband, as well as Walter Stewart, former artistic director and founder of the La Jolla Stage Company and theatre teacher at La Jolla High School. The company has produced shows such as “Kindertransport,” “The Diviners,” “Stepping Out,” “Pets,” “The Last Night of Ballyhoo,” “Teach Me How to Cry,” “The Trial” and “Black Comedy.” This year, Boutelle said, theatergoers can expect “a colorful, hysterical, lively, very funny show with beautiful sets and cool lights.”

Second La Jolla Fashion Film Fest is all glitz and glamour By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt n Friday, July 29, about 200 fashion-lovers from near and far gathered outside the Museum of Contemporary Art for some meeting and greeting before the premiere of the second annual La Jolla Fashion Film Festival, and the screening of 40 short fashion films from around the world. Among the smart set of international directors and models were a number of style-savvy locals. At the center of it all was Fred Sweet, founder and producer of the festival and CEO of San Diego Model Management. Attending directors were invited to address the audience before their films screened. New York filmmaker Marcus K. Jones, whose three pieces wrapped up the first night’s program, summed up the excitement at the festival, which was billed as the largest gathering of fashion film creators to date. “Fashion film is a breath of fresh air,” he said. “It’s so young, there’s nobody to tell you: You can’t do that!”

Museums welcome new experiments in retail BY SUSAN DEMAGGIO sdemaggio@lajollalight.com In an effort to en (rich) museum-going experiences, something new is popping up. Pop-up shops are being added to exhibitions, pairing show themes with related products to give visitors more to peruse and to provide museums and merchants with profit-sharing perks. Note: These are not your average gift shops. It’s a win-win for all concerned, according to Erica Ashley Hecht of E.A. Vintage who produced a popup shop for the San Diego Museum of Art’s Culture & Cocktails soiree on July 21 in connection with “From El Greco to Dali: Spanish Masters from the Perez Simon Collection.” “The museum contacted me for this event and I was happy to bring my stuff over and participate,” she said. “It’s a perfect match. My vintage jewelry, clothing and accessories appeal to artistic types, and the art museum gets 10-percent of the evening’s sales.”

The Coast Guard was established on this day in 1790. True. Its official history began on Aug. 4, 1790 when the first Congress authorized the construction of 10 vessels to enforce federal tariff and trade laws and to prevent smuggling. Known variously through the 19th and early 20th centuries as the Revenue Marine and the Revenue Cutter Service, the Coast Guard expanded in size and responsibilities as the nation grew. The service received its present name in 1915 under an act of Congress that merged the Revenue Cutter Service with the Life-Saving Service, thereby providing the nation with a single maritime service dedicated to saving life at sea and enforcing the nation’s maritime laws. — U.S. Coast Guard
