Clean water for the region is brought in on government trucks, forcing villagers to walk up to five miles to retrieve it. They are only able to collect as much as they can carry home.

“Everyone waits in line to get water for the week, day, whatever they need,” said Dave Rich, a La Jolla resident who traveled to Dera in March to film a short documentary in an effort to raise awareness of the dire situation.

Rich’s inspiration for the trip came from his cousin, Jason Horgishiemer, a dentist who, while volunteering in Ethiopia for Doctors Without Borders, became aware of efforts to construct a 20-mile waterline running down from the springs of Mount Chilalo into Dera.

Hope Arising, a nonprofit organization, is helping to fund part of the $2.84 million undertaking called the Dera Water Project.

Rich hopes to use the documentary he shot as a visual plea to aid Hope Arising in raising its $253,000 contribution to the project.

Having received large donations from Ethiopia’s Oromia Water Bureau as well as the World Bank, Hope Arising is getting closer to achieving its goal. Villagers in Ethiopia have also raised funds by selling goods in local marketplaces.

The water line, once completed, will serve 58,000 Ethiopians.

“If you want to have a functional society, first and foremost you need water,” said Rich, who by night is a local comedian and by day an employee of the Shell Corporation.

The La Jolla Community Planning Association voted to support an extension of the no-parking times at Via Casa Alta near Soledad Park. If the proposal is ultimately adopted by the city, parking would be banned from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. instead of the current window of 2 to 6 a.m. The move is designed to target late-night partiers PAUL HANSEN I VILLAGE NEWS and nuisances.

Curious visitors get a shark photo opportunity in big way at Birch Aquarium.

Concerned neighbors on La Jolla’s Via Casa Alta near Soledad Park are pursuing tighter parking restrictions because of latenight funseekers who park at the popular lookout near two vacant lots to drink, smoke, and do “who knows what else,” one resident said at this month’s La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA) meeting.

The LJCPA supported a motion in a 9-41 vote to install signs that change the current no-parking hours of 2 to 6 a.m. to a longer window of 10 p.m. to 7 a.m.

Clark Straw, who owns property adjacent to the lookout and who has lived in the nearby La Jolla Summit neighborhood for 20 years, said the number and frequency of “revelers” has increased “over the past five years or so” and now neighbors hear disturbances at least once a week.

“There’s a lot of partying going on down there,” he said. “There’s some illegal activity, people getting intoxicated and smoking marijuana. There’s just a lot of loud noise and nuisance occurring at late hours.”

Straw said local residents find themSEE PARKING, Page 2

selves picking up after the partiers, who leave fast-food containers, alcohol bottles and “hundreds of cigarette butts.”

The number of smokers at the site, Straw added, also raised concerns of potential wildfires.

“We’re concerned that a fire could easily start with the area getting drier,” he said.

Straw said he did not believe the extension of no-parking hours would necessarily solve the problem.

“But it’s a start,” he said. “One of the things we can do is change the hours to some that are more reasonable.”

The proposed 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. parking ban reflects the hours of the nearby park at Mount Soledad, Straw said.

“We want people to enjoy the view during normal hours, but to allow this to go on late at night is a nuisance to the neighbors, as well as a fire hazard,” he added.

Regular patrols by law enforcement or video surveillance would probably do more to curtail partying than stricter parking hours, Straw said.

“I have mixed feelings about surveillance because it’s kind of like Big Brother is watching you,” Straw said. “And law enforcement has other concerns and limited manpower. But it’s always a few inconsiderate people who cause problems for everyone else.”

Two other sites that Straw said experience similar crowds are the La Jolla Natural Park near the last street at the top of Mount Soledad, and the fire road at the end of Rue Adriane off Via Capri.

Children miss school and parents miss work to wait in line for the trucks to arrive.

They are slaves to the water, Rich said.

Society stops without clean water.

“Once there’s water, everything else works,” Rich said.

While in Dera, he enlisted the help of a translator, Menengistu Abebe. The translator had suffered an extensive leg wound years prior, leaving his limb mangled. Still, he wanted to help Rich.

“He said if we could get this out and everyone could see it then maybe, maybe, we could have water someday,” Rich said, recalling Abebe’s words.

With only 11 days in Dera, the documentary was a time-intensive project. Rich collected footage from interviews and captured images of the vast lines of people waiting for water.

“While we’re bouncing around a bus I’m trying to type and [Abebe is] telling me what the people are saying,” Rich said of the pair’s work on the film.

Rich went on the trip with his cousin, Horgishiemer, who went back to volunteer with two other dentists.

The dentists pulled 900 teeth in 10 days in a clinic that was a mere room lined with lawn chairs used as dental chairs, Rich explained.

“We had to bring in water for the pulling of teeth,” Rich said.

Rich recalled a doctor in Dera mentioning that when a woman gives birth there is not water with which to clean the patients.

Rich noted the countenance and dedication of the people in Dera despite the obvious hardship. He acknowledged that this is the only life they know, but the completion of the pipeline would make a significant difference in the quality of life in Dera.

Rich witnessed people working on the waterline while filming.

“They’re up there, barefoot, ham-

“There are many spots where people have nice homes and thought they’d have a quiet neighborhood, but instead they’re dealing with these issues,” Straw said.

The LJCPA had mixed opinions about the proposed changes. Several members acknowledged a problem exists but worried that the revised hours would not solve the issue and would limit street parking for residents.

“I don’t think it’s going to do much because non-regulated parking is available 24 hours a day, so they’ll move across the street,” said LJCPA board member Jim Fitzgerald. “The real issue is closing the property off in some way. But let’s give it a try and see if it makes a difference.”

While the LJCPA voted in favor of the extended no-parking hours, the La Jolla Town Council and the Traffic and Transportation Board voted against the project.

LJCPA president Joe LaCava said the staff at the city’s Traffic Engineering Department would review the proposed changes.

“If they don’t have any technical objections to it, then they issue a work order to Streets Division,” LaCava said. “Because of backlog, it can take up to 60 days for city crews to switch out the signs.”

NEWS 3 Scripps researchers tackle Earth’s mysteries with high-tech approach THURSDAY · JULY 15, 2010

LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

BY JOHNNY MCDONALD | VILLAGE NEWS Scientific investigations at Scripps Institution of Oceanography span the realms of sea, air, land and life to determine how Earth systems work and interact.

Researchers may span the globe in search of answers, as exemplified by a recent international exploration.

Kerry Key recently returned from an April expedition off the Nicaraguan coast. As a member of Dr. Steven Constable’s 20-man science team, Key explored the ocean depths to study the faults that in 1992 produced a magnitude-7.7 earthquake in that region.

The team boarded the Melville, a 279foot research vessel, in Costa Rica for the journey. It’s the oldest of Scripps’ fleet.

The institution operates four oceanographic vessels and a floating platform for oceanographic research. Their instruments probed the crushing depths of 6,000 meters for the study and Key blogged the expedition days and summarized: “We have collected a huge volume of marine exploration data, from which we will be able to learn a great deal about the nature of cracking, extension, porosity and serpentinization of the oceanic

lithosphere at a subduction zone.”

He said it was comparable to the trench off Oregon and Washington.

Faults are also along California’s coast and down to the tip of Baja.

“There has been explorations off the Central Coast but not since the 1980s with more modern equipment,” said Key. “With electromagnetic techniques now, you can determine how much sea water percolates down in the crusts.”

Although there are a series of faults along the California coast, he judges that their lateral motion would make it less likely to generate a tsunami. Tsunamis are caused by vertical action.

“Based on the motion of the faults out there, there’s a lower probability of a major earthquake off San Diego than in the desert or San Andreas,” Key said.

Scripps scientists hope to capitalize on a unique opportunity (off Nicaragua) to capture fresh data from the momentous geological event by attempting to characterize structural changes in the sea floor that resulted from movement along faults and submarine landslides.

“We don’t deal with earthquake predictions,” said Key. “We’re looking at background geological properties, trying to relate to the longterm behaviors. [The] closest to a

war ning would be about 30 seconds if we had sensors right on the fault. In theory, they could transmit a signal to San Diego.”

Among more than 300 Scripps programs under way, most are interdisciplinary. This approach to basic science is geared toward how physical environment affects life systems with global change, ocean pollution and marine resources.

Currently, Scripps has joined the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and U.S. Navy researchers to demonstrate the first robotic underwater vehicle to be powered by natural, renewable, ocean thermal energy.

Historical Society to host old-fashioned ice-cream social

BY JENNA FRAZIER | VILLAGE NEWS An old-fashioned ice-cream social will be the cherry on top of La Jolla Historical Society’s summer festivities designed to reach out to residents of all ages. The lawns of the Wisteria Cottage at 780 Prospect St. will resound with children’s folk music by Hullaballoo, and guests will engage in timeless lawn games and face painting July 17 from 3 to 5 p.m.

John Bolthouse, executive director of the society, said the event is an important step to ensuring that La Jolla’s younger generations develop an appreciation for their roots.

“The historical society hasn’t really been proactive in trying to reach out to kids,” Bolthouse said. “This is really our first effort to reach out to La Jolla’s youth and introduce kids to the society en masse, and to show them and their parents that history is fun and visiting us here is a great experience.”

Bolthouse said he also hoped that getting local youngsters involved will help preserve the community legacy for generations to come.

“There’s nothing more important to maintaining the architectural and cultural character of La Jolla than understanding and appreciating its history,” he said. “We might not be talking about history at this event, but this is the first step to letting the community know that we’re here for a reason and that it’s important to enjoy and appreciate our history and have respect for it as well.”

As for the event itself, Bolthouse said the society hopes to recreate the atmosphere of a summer afternoon from an era before video games and other modern entertainment.

“It’s going to be a great time, and we’re going to try to have a historical feel so that kids can get a sense of what their parents and grandparents had fun

doing back in the day,” he said.

The first 200 children to arrive at the cottage will receive a free hula-hoop as a gift from Brian Miller of La Jolla’s Geppetto’s Toy Store, 7850 Girard.

Guests are also invited to explore the historical society’s retro-surf exhibition, “Waveriders: Perspectives on Surf-

ing La Jolla 1930-1950,” during the event.

The event and ice cream are free, but the historical society welcomes a suggested donation of $3 for each guest attending the social. For more information, call (858) 459-5335 or visit www.lajollahistory.org.

4 Drunken driver sentenced to six years in prison THURSDAY · JULY 15, 2010

LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

BY NEAL PUTNAM | VILLAGE NEWS As a courtroom audience of 120 people looked on, a judge on July 9 sentenced a drunken driver to six years in state prison for killing Jared Franklin Purton, a scientist who worked at the Scripps Research Institute, in a fiery crash Dec. 13 in Torrey Pines.

Michael Patrick Landri, 31, had been free on $50,000 bond, but was remanded to jail at the end of a long sentencing hearing in which both friends of the victim and defendant spoke to San Diego Superior Court Judge Eugenia Eyherabide.

Landri was driving at least 88 mph in his Infiniti G35 when he struck the Volkswagen Passat that Purton was driving around 10 p.m. on Dec. 13, 2009. The impact caused both cars to explode in flames.

Landri had a blood/alcohol level of 0.16, which is twice the legal limit, said Deputy District Attorney Renee Palermo.

Purton, 33, of Pacific Beach, died in his car on North Torrey Pines Road. Landri, of San Diego, and a passenger was pulled from the wreckage by a University of California, San Diego employee who was unable to save Purton. Landri was a bartender and was returning from a Christmas party. Palermo told the judge Landri had a flask of whiskey in his pocket that was 2/3rds empty.

Landri pleaded guilty March 19 to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, with the maximum sentence set at 10 years.

Eyherabide gave Landri credit for seven days previously spent in jail and fined him $1,014.

A Sept. 7 hearing was set to determine whether he should pay the victim’s parents any restitution. Landri remains in the downtown central jail pending transfer to prison.

OB ITUARY

Robert duBois Lynch, M.D. Feb. 3, 1932 - June 20, 2010 Robert duBois Lynch, M.D, of La Jolla, passed away on Sunday, June 20, 2010, of complications following a severe stroke.

He was 78.

Lynch was born in Wichita, Kan. to Claude and Grace Lynch. He was a graduate of Washington University, St. Louis, and Kansas University School of Medicine. After an internship at the Hospital of The University of Pennsylvania, he entered a residency and fellowship program in psychiatry at the Menninger Foundation in Topeka, Kan. Upon completion of his residency, he married Gloria vonHebel of Philadelphia and they moved to California, where he served as a lieutenant commander in the Navy, stationed at Camp Pendleton as the base psychiatrist.

The “mount out” of Marines shipping out for the Cuban Blockade took place during his tenure there.

Lynch then moved to La Jolla where he opened an office for the private practice of psychiatry, and was later joined there by his wife, a licensed psychologist. He continued to practice in that same location until shortly before his death.

In addition, Lynch was the statewide psychiatric consultant for the California Department of Rehabilitation for almost 40 years and served as its representative to one of the state’s first task forces to address the AIDS epidemic.

Over time, he developed a special interest in the biochemical and neurological factors underlying learning disabilities like dyslexia, and in recent years had specialized in performing extensive diagnostic evaluations to determine those causes and formulate ways to ameliorate them.

From his college years on, he was fortunate in developing relationships with interesting people who expanded his horizons, like Gardner Murphy and Christopher Isherwood. Some, like Aldous Huxley, Margaret Mead and Carlos Castaneda were guests in his home.

Robert Lynch, M.D.

Lynch was involved in a number of research projects that combined medicine, spiritual beliefs, special education, approaches to addiction and the like. Some of the professional organizations of which he had been a member are the American Psychiatric Association, the San Diego County Medical Society, the San Diego Psychiatric Society, the La Jolla Academy of Medicine, the Learning Disabilities Association and the Dyslexia Research Foundation. He taught in the extension division of many of the UC and CSU campuses, the University of Hawaii, the Esalen Institute and elsewhere.

Lynch was a great lover of classical and sacred music, and of opera. As a child, he was a member of a Bach Boys Choir that traveled throughout his home state. He continued to study and perform as a bass-baritone during his years as a college and medical student, singing at times with the Metropolitan Opera on tour. For many years, he was a member of the La Jolla Presbyterian Church Chancel Choir and he also sang with the San Diego Opera.

Lynch was a man of wide-ranging and unusual interests and always curious to learn something new. Similarly, his choice in travel was to go to lessconventional places. He climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, and he preferred paddling his own canoe down the Zambesi River to cruising the Caribbean, and trekking in to sleep in a hut with Stone Age tribes to dozing by a hotel pool.

He read widely about ancient civilizations and visited many of their ruins, and preferred perusing maps to reading about pop culture. He was a SCUBA diver who relished each opportunity to visit that undersea realm and he pursued underwater photography as a hobby. He also enjoyed taking his family on some of his adventurous trips, exposing his children to different cultures from an early age. Throughout his life he was devoted to his family and his patients.

Lynch is survived by his wife, Gloria; son Todd Lynch and his wife, Corinne, and son Shane of La Jolla; daughter Alix Juneau and her husband, Todd, son Kanon and daughter, Morea of Torrey Hills. His sister, Barbara Wright of Borrego Springs, also survives him, as do a niece, two nephews, two great-nieces and two greatnephews.

A memorial will take place on Sunday, Aug. 1 at 4 p.m. at the La Jolla Woman’s Club. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to The Dyslexia Research Foundation (dyslexiafoundation.org) or charity of choice.

THE PREVALENCE OF DEPRESSION IN THE ELDERLY

2010

Researchers estimate that 20 percent of elderly people living in nursing homes or assisted living experience symptoms of depression. Late in life depression can have serious repercussions. It can increase mortality and disability, may result in higher health care utilization and longer hospital stays.

An estimated 15 percent of U.S. adults are providing care for seriously ill or disabled relatives. These family caregivers are simultaneously caring for their own children and also often working outside the home. Add the problem of elder depression in perhaps one in five of all family caregiving relationships and you can see the problem is huge. Many families don’t even know what they’re dealing with or how to care for their loved one when they don’t fully understand what is happening to that family member.

Stories and craft times will also be held throughout the day.

Current threats to shark populations include severe overfishing, ocean pollution and killing for sport, Evans said.

“Some of this stems from fear of sharks and what they represent, myths propagated by stories and movies, and some is a simple misunderstanding of biology and reproduction,” she added.

“But sharks play a major role in ocean ecology and are essential to what an ecosystem needs to be healthy. As large predators, their populations don’t recover as quickly when they start to decline.”

GUEST COMMENTARY

The importance of the Regents Road Bridge

BY RICHARD J. PRUTOW, PH.D., M.D. The time has come to follow the University City Community Plan and build the Regents Road Bridge! As discussed below, this is the only way to improve the level of service for all modes of transportation within the community as required by federal and state law.

Federal code states that transportation planning should provide for the development of an integrated system that includes pedestrian walkways and bikeways as part of an intermodal transportation system.

This is supported by U.S. Secretary of Transportation Roy LaHood, who stated that bicyclists and pedestrians would get the same priority as cars and trucks. A state law that takes effect Jan. 1, 2011 will require determination of the level of service for all modes of transportation as part of an environmental impact report (EIR). This bill, AB 1358, requires that the circulation element of a community general plan include a “balanced, multimodal transportation network that meets the needs of all users of the streets, roads and highways, defined to include motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, children, persons with disabilities, seniors, movers of commercial goods, and users of public transportation…” The 2010 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), available Jan. 1, 2011, will incorporate an expanded multimodal approach. San Diego’s City of Villages strategy calls for an “attractive multimodal transportation system in which pedestrians, bicycles, and transit vehicles are accommodated in addition to automobiles.” Such a system would improve mobility for San Diegans by providing competitive alternatives to the automobile. For this to work, cyclists and pedestrians must have every opportunity to move safely and enjoyably throughout the community.

The above laws and guidelines require that any traffic study in University City (UC) be analyzed as a multimodal transportation network. Obviously, the intra-network circulation in UC is severely impeded by the presence of only one path between north and south UC, i.e. Genesee Ave. This makes the network very inefficient and subject to failure.

The proposed trolley to north UC will improve internetwork circulation, however, it will have little effect on intra-network circulation. The only way to improve intra-network circulation in UC is to introduce a second connection in the network between north and south UC, i.e. the Regents Road Bridge.

Genesee, the only local north-south connection, is an unpleasant and dangerous road for pedestrians and bicyclists because of high traffic speeds, high volumes of traffic, and significant changes in elevation (170+ feet). This became an issue in 1978 when it was proposed to shift some Clairemont students to UC High School. This was rejected by the school district because of complaints that “students would face hilly and hazardous bicycling conditions on busy Genesee.” This intersection is unique in that students traverse the intersection to go to elementary school, middle school and high school.

In the University City EIR traffic study, the Regents Road Bridge had a unique positive impact at the Governor-Genesee intersection. The Regents Road Bridge results in a significant reduction in cars going south and turning right (1,045 turns vs.

537 turns, 47 percent reduction) and cars going east and turning left (1,133 turns vs. 399 turns, 65 percent reduction) at the Governor-Genesee intersection. This result demonstrates that the Regents

Road Bridge would result in a significant reduction in turns at this intersection.

This intersection has a problem regarding pedestrian and bicycle safety because of the number of cars turning and the number of school children crossing the intersection. Right-turn-on-red endangers pedestrians, especially young children who may not be readily visible to drivers. The above reduction in turns would result in a significant improvement in pedestrian and bicycle safety and level of service at the intersection. None of the other proposed projects had such a positive impact on this intersection. Because of this result it would be irresponsible not to seriously consider building the Regents Road Bridge.

Compared to Genesee Avenue, the Regents Road Bridge offers a much more pleasing alternative route across Rose Canyon because of less traffic, minimal changes in elevation and pleasant views of Rose Canyon. Of the design alternatives in the UC NorthSouth Transportation Corridor Study, only the Regents Road Bridge would provide a level surface with a class II bicycle lane that would facilitate pedestrian and bicycle travel between south and north UC. The bridge would allow students in north UC who live near Doyle Elementary School to bicycle or walk to Stanley Middle School in south UC. This would reduce the traffic at the Governor–Genesee intersection since many of these students are currently driven to Stanley Middle School. The bridge would also improve bicycling to UCSD and reduce driving time between north and south UC. Getting people to walk and bicycle rather than drive would reduce greenhouse gas emissions as required by the California Environmental Quality Act. This also supports the CDC’s “Healthy People 2010” and “Kids Walk-to-School” programs, and the California Department of Public Health “Walkto-School” program. The goal of these programs is to have children and adults walk and bicycle to school, to work, to run errands, and for exercise.

It is estimated that about 18 percent of the local population are people with disabilities. The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that the population older than 65 will increase by 33 percent within 15 years. Planning for the mobility needs of the elderly and infirm should be an integral part of any transportation system design process. The bridge would allow the elderly and infirm to walk or use their wheelchairs to cross between north and south UC and enjoy views of Rose Canyon not otherwise available. In 2005, the state settled a class-action lawsuit regarding lack of access to state parks by the disabled. One of the plaintiffs stated: “People with disabilities want to experience every aspect of life, including nature, that makes us all human beings.”

In conclusion, building the Regents Road Bridge would significantly improve intra-network multimodal transportation circulation within the UC community for drivers, bicyclists, pedestrians and the disabled. These improvements would reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Ignoring the advantages of the Regents Road Bridge within the UC community multimodal transportation system can subject the city to a lawsuit for not having followed federal, state and local transportation policy guidelines.

Doing it Better Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. It starts in the morning: Voice 1: “Get up!”

Voice 2: “I’m still sleepy.” Voice 1 impatiently: “You’ll be late for work!” Voice 2, pleading: “Five more minutes.”

It goes on at breakfast: Voice 1: “Wholewheat toast and fruit!” Voice 2: “There’s a doughnut left in the fridge.” Voice 1: “It’s all fat and sugar!” Voice 2: “Just this once.”

And so the voices continue throughout the day with every decision we have to make — from “Shall I walk up the three flights to my office or take the elevator?” to “Shall I criticize my colleague’s report or let it go?”

We all have many voices that send us very different messages — there is a worrier voice that always says “Be nice, don’t make trouble,” another that tells you to have fun and forget about the consequences, and an often loud one that is always ready to criticize: “You shouldn’t have, you’re stupid, don’t believe that compliment, you haven’t tried hard enough, it is not good enough, you’ll never make it,” etc.

It is important for all of us to identify the different voices in our heads so that we can decide which ones to listen to and when, and which ones are too critical or too inflammatory or too protective. Among all the static, there is a self, an inner core, the ego that is the decision maker, who decides what voices will be listened to and which will be told to shut up.

When facing a decision, ask yourself which voice of yours seems to be loudest, and then pay attention to the other one too.

The voices sometimes do not get heard in time — like when we lose our temper and then regret it, the rational voice too soft to stop us, overshadowed by the stronger voice of emotion. Generally, the emotional voices are louder than the voices of reason. Emotions flood us, we react impulsively, unable to lower the volume of the hurt, the anger, the frustration.

Remember the advice of counting to 10 before responding? It is meant to give time for the emotional voice to quiet down and allow the rational one to be heard.

It is the emotional voice that gets us into trouble, yet it is a voice that needs to be taken into account. It gives us clues as to what is going on inside of ourselves. People who have shut down their emotional voice cannot connect to these voices in others and thus may be missing important information as to the emotional climate around them. People who have dimmed their voice of reason are prone to the seesaws of their feelings, buffeted by the both ill winds and soft breezes of emotional ups and downs.

If you watch and listen to people, you will be able to figure out which voices control them and you will be able to better predict their behaviors. Knowing this will also help you find the best ways to communicate with them and to appeal to their predominant ways of thinking.

And if you can figure out what your voices are trying to achieve, you’ll never again say, “I don’t understand why I did (said) that.” You’ll be able to blame that mischievous voice of yours.

BUSINESS La Jolla properties see increasing confidence in detached market

BY MARK MARQUEZ As the second quarter of 2010 wound down, it looked like the real estate market’s high end, specifically in La Jolla, is still a bit of a roller coaster ride. Traditionally, spring is a more active real estate season than winter, but while lower-cost homes sales were helped by the Federal Tax Credit, financing challenges for loans above the conforming level have still discouraged buyers at the high end. However, gradually it’s looking like at least in the detached home market buyers are gaining more confidence — and financing — with sales and prices beginning to rebound by the end of May. La Jolla’s attached home market declined a bit, as sold listings, which had been 29 in March, dropped to 24 in April, and again to 18 in May. The median home price between April and May remained the same at $530,000, but that number is considerably less than the March median price of $565,000.

Year to date, sales are at 93 in the attached market, an increase from 88 the previous year, when the median price for attached homes in La Jolla was $562,000. And, on the bright side, it took less time to sell these attached homes. On average, they were on the market for 52 days in May 2010, while it took 89 days to make a sale in May 2009.

Looking at the more expensive detached home market, we find April listed sales down to 17 from 27 the previous month, but then rebounding in May to 25. The median price in April sunk to $1,005,000, compared to $1.4 million just the month before and $1.5

Second-quarter statistics show price fluctuations for high-end properties in La Jolla.

million the year before. However, in May, the median price climbed to $1.3 million, an increase, but considerably less than May 2009, when the median price of a detached home in La Jolla was $1.7 million. Year to date, sales of detached homes in La Jolla reached 96, about the same as the year before when there were sales of 99 listings. Of course, with lower prices, it took less time for the homes to move. At the end of last quarter, the average number of days spent on the market was 107. In April that number dropped to 95. With the increase in prices in May, the average number of days on the market shot up to 127.

What is the takeaway from these figures?

While from month to month both sales listings and median prices are changeable, if you look from today to this time last year, sales are pretty consistent. La Jolla continues to make good on its reputation as a jewel in the crown of San Diego.

So, how is La Jolla faring compared with San Diego County in general?

We’ve been hearing a lot about how the county is one of the nation’s bright spots — Mark Marquez is the 2010 presiin the real estate market, and, indeed, dent for the San Diego Association of the market appears to be in stabilization REALTORS®.

mode, and particularly solid at the entry level. So, it’s no surprise that the sales numbers are far better for the rest of the county in general than for La Jolla as we end the second quarter of 2010. We find that total listings of attached homes sold in May (1,128) were up 21 percent from April (932) and a tremendous 24.6 percent from the year before (905).

Detached homes also fared well, with a 20 percent increase (2,017) in May compared with April (1,681), and a 13 percent increase from May 2009 (1,786). These gains were, of course, tied to the federal homebuyer tax credits, which ended May 31, so it will be interesting to see how the June numbers look when they’re released. Of course, the California homebuyer tax credit is still in place so we may continue to see sales increase as home buyers request these credits from the California Franchise Tax Board.

In La Jolla, though, the high price point of homes in the area will keep sales trends uncertain, so it’s worth taking the long view when it comes to value.

One of the sticking points for buyers right now is that jumbo loans remain difficult to acquire, and lenders have often boosted down payment levels to 25 percent or more. But interest rates remain historically low and we’re starting to see some relaxing of requirements at the jumbo loan level. If you have questions about home buying in La Jolla, as always, consult your REALTOR,® who can help guide you with your lending options.

McCallum siblings star for Country Day

BY LEE CORNELL | VILLAGE NEWS Jason and Kaitlin McCallum have been two highly-motivated Torreys. In their spare time, the siblings can be found going for long bike rides, running for miles or even rock climbing.

Jason is the older brother, having recently finished up his senior year at La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) while Kaitlin expects to continue making her mark at the school as a sophomore.

Jason has been running track since second grade when a coach noticed his natural speed and suggested he sign him up for a club team. At that time, Kaitlin was still too young to officially join the squad. But since she had to tag along to Jason’s practice anyway, the coaches let her join in. The siblings have been training and competing ever since.

These days, the siblings’ hard work and dedication has been paying off.

On the track this spring, Jason set school records in the 400-meter relay and the pole vault, while matching the long-jump mark. He also boasted an excellent GPA. His grades and athletic prowess have earned his way into Middlebury College, a school in Vermont considered one of the finest institutions in the Northeast.

“I wanted to go to the best academic school possible,” Jason said, adding that getting a chance to continue his athletic career was a bonus.

Jason also played lacrosse at LJCD this spring, leading his team to a conference championship. It took understanding coaches and a vigorous physical regime to get through both seasons.

“You figure out when you really need to exert 100 percent and when you can just let it roll,” he said.

Jason has decided to run track at Middlebury in the fall, although he could always return to lacrosse in the future if

he wants to — one of the perks of going to a smaller school.

While Jason has been blazing the path for years, Kaitlin has quietly been stepping out of the shadow and into the spotlight. A two-sport star at LJCD in her own right (she, too, played lacrosse) Kaitlin this year accomplished something her brother never has — she made it to the state track and field championships as a pole vaulter.

“It was definitely a good experience to go and see all the girls who are older and are jumping so much higher,” she said.

“It was really cool to be out there.”

Only a sophomore this year, Kaitlin already holds the LJCD girls’ pole-vault record. Her accomplishments have gotten the attention of several Division I college schools, including the University of Oregon, a perennial track powerhouse.

While it’s difficult to judge the better athlete between the siblings, a healthy rivalry has unquestionably emerged.

Being the younger sibling, Kaitlin has always been motivated by her brother’s success, but Jason modestly concedes his little sister has him beaten in certain areas.

“She’s definitely a better student than I am and I have no problem admitting that,” Jason chuckled. “She’s catching up with me in athletically, so I’ve got to watch out.”

La Jolla Country Day siblings Kaitlin and Jason McCallum have been stars on the track and in the classroom. Both hold Torreys school records in pole vaulting.

What is distinctive about Colette’s teaching is the way she engages a class. We learn a new pattern almost every class but the pace is adjusted during class in such a way that every single class I go home with a distinct sense of accomplishment & inspiration . . . Colette peaks my interest at every class. She also attracts an accomplished following.

Treat yourself to a class.

I started tango lessons with Colette Hebert last week and have never danced the tango before Colette has a wonderful way of easing my doubts and making the lessons a pleasure.

‘Erotic Serenity’ Young mixed-media artist brings exhibit to Madison Gallery

BY WILL BOWEN | VILLAGE NEWS

Paintings by Mee Kyung Shim (clockwise from top left): “My+Eternal+Joy+Temple,” “Aura of Summer II,” “Breath of Nature,” “The Sea Front,” “Garden Story IV,” “Aura+of+Summer” and (center) “It Lives in You.”

Faces in which to follow nature Mee Shim’s paintings reflect the juxtaposition of two cultures

BY WILL BOWEN | VILLAGE NEWS Monarch Gallery, 1205 Prospect St., is opening a new exhibition of art by a young, beautiful, promising and hard-working Korean-American female artist named Mee Kyung Shim.

Shim’s current work concentrates, with a few exceptions, on face paintings. She portrays the faces and shaven heads of her young friends, both men and women. What’s unique is that inside each purposely egg-shaped head are scenes of nature, implying the Far East idea of man being a part of nature or unified with nature, as in the Taoist maxim: “Follow nature.” This is a stark contrast to Western notions of a split between man and nature — as in man being above nature, or the steward of nature, or nature having been created solely to serve man.

The nature elements within each of Shim’s faces include colorful flowers, fish, clouds, mountains, seagulls, eagles, hummingbirds, trees and water. In most cases, there are also splashes of orange which seem to connote the koi goldfish. Sometimes one can see in the

pupil of the painted figures a small reflection of an onlooker or perhaps the painter.

Shim’s faces are very seductive to the eye, both riveting and hypnotic. They draw the viewer in, focus their awareness and have the uncanny ability to still the mind. The look of each subject is serene, present, and available.

The viewer finds themself becoming very close to the subjects on the emotional level.

Shim considers her paintings to be a type of “mandala,” an ancient visual image, stared at to promote states of deep meditation.

“She is an old soul in a modern light,” said Marc Baza, the art consultant at Monarch Gallery. “When you look at her paintings you drop all of your surrounding elements as you are solely drawn into Mee’s artistic world within the canvas.”

Shim’s paintings vary in size from 2-feet-by 2-feet to 3-feet-by-4-feet. Some of the titles include “It Lives in You,” “Zion,” “Aura of Summer” and “My Eternal Joy Temple.”

Shim, now 35, was born and raised in Suwon, South Korea. At age 11 she began studying art with a local artist in her hometown. She completed a BFA in art at Duksung

Mixed-media art mixes or combines various aspects of art practice that are traditionally distinct or separate in a layered collage-like fashion. In mixed media you might see painting mixed with photographs, drawing, text, or even layered-in scraps of material.

There is a fine example of mixed-media art on display at the Madison Gallery at 1020 Prospect Place. Madison has six 3-foot-by-3-foot mixed-media paintings by the young emerging artist William Goodman, age 28, who is from Jackson, Miss. The show is called “Erotic Serenity.”

Goodman has been garnering a good deal of attention these days with sold out shows in New York. He was also featured in the 2009 edition of the journal New American Painting, a publication that showcases promising young artists.

Lorna York, the owner of Madison Gallery, said she selected Goodman for exhibition because, “He is edgy, young, exciting, and one of the best of the new artists.”

York continued, “Goodman’s work embodies the dark sensuality of the 1970s and 1980s and strongly appeals to both those who have lived during those times and those who can only imagine it.”

York suggests that Goodman’s work “looks at urban decay and the broken American dreams in extreme paintings which mix the fashion and sensuality of today with nostalgic retro images such as of old cars and commercial signage.”

Goodman’s paintings are characterized by muted pastel-like colors, especially baby blues, beige, grays and offwhites. They contain photographic transfers, especially of sexy, young, alluring women — provocatively dressed; sometimes young men, old cars, guns, grenades, text, geometric doodles, numbers, stencil and commercial or cosmopolitan signage, such as street signs, Dairy Queen or porn shop marquees.

In each of Goodman’s paintings there seems to be a kind of dangerous and/or aggressive sexuality lurking and a hidden message potentially revealing something about his life experience, which is up to you to discern or psychoanalyze.

“My art uploads fragments of my life. My experience all come together unleashing raw emotion on the canvas,” Goodman said. “My images echo deep layers in my own life experience. My art changes periodically as I unwrap experiences embedded in my own soul.”

Goodman, who is a graduate of The North Carolina School of the Arts, has been drawing since he was a child. He said that he is influenced by the fashion indusSEE ART, Page 11

“Art without struggle is not good art,” Shim said.

The struggle in her art work is to reconcile South Korean and American culture. She said that her work is an attempt to answer the question, “Who am I?” “I am not exactly American and I’m not exactly Korean, anymore, either. That kind of ambiguity of identity is a big part of my art,” she said. “My figurative paintings reflect the juxtaposition of two cultures. They also wrestle with the mystic symbolism of Eastern thought — a philosophy that celebrates the intrinsic bond between man and nature. I engrave symbolic universes onto human faces to represent the philosophy that the self is united within the whole of creation.

“What I paint, I hope, will offer the viewer an opportunity for self-reflection and unification and give people a means of discovering a self-awareness in a multicultural world.”

“San Diego is so much more surfdriven than Los Angeles, for example,” he said. “You don’t have the big swells here but you don’t need big waves like Tahiti and Hawaii for good surfing.

There are a variety of breakers.”

The film is a production of Steven Low, who is described by Cutler as an ocean fanatic with a passion for the Polynesian waters of the South Pacific.

Low has worked with noted director-producer James Cameron on “Titanic” and “Volcanoes of the Deep Sea.” “When the idea came up, we knew it would be about an area he knew,” said Cutler, who now lives in Atlanta, “And, Tahiti had such a wide variety of good surf.”

The IMAX Tahiti film is expected to be shown in 150 locations including Munich and Paris.

“Low did a large portion of the filming,” Cutler said. “He’s a hands-on director and understands IMAX’s large format cameras better than anyone in the world.”

The film is a blend of surfing and ocean science, starring nine-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater and Tahitian Raimana Van Bastolaer in Tahiti’s famed surf site, Teahupo’o.

Viewers will see the power and speed of surfing on nature’s most intense ocean waves in a series of multiple angles and views.

Cutler is founder of the National Surf League, an organization that was started in Encinitas, a team-based competition he ran for four or five years.

From this stemmed the nation’s only team-based high school surfing format which just completed a tournament in

San Clemente.

“Surfing was probably considered a fad in the 1950s,” Cutler said. “It went from the sub culture ‘70s to a new fullblown influential facet of pop culture with a lifestyle for apparel, an influence on music and other trends.”

THURSDAY · JULY 15, 2010 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

Big parties, a secret center and many friends Starry, starry nights

with Vincent Andrunas La Jolla Realtor Tom Groff loves big parties. They are a way to have fun with old friends and meet new ones while also collecting donations for his favorite charities, such as Athletes for Education and Special Olympics. Usually, they are black- tie affairs, but for his recent 15th annual Summer Solstice party the dress code was more relaxed — a cross between cocktail attire and island wear (much more comfortable for dancing on a summer’s evening). Tom and 17 cohosts (mostly guys, as usual, but this time two ladies also hosted) covered all the costs. Guests didn’t have to buy tickets, but each was expected to bring new sporting goods valued at $25 or more as a donation to the beneficiary charities. The 800-plus guests represented

quite a mix, ranging in age from 21 to over 60, but everybody mingled amiably, most danced until quite late and everybody seemed to have a really great time.

••• Coming to La Jolla in 1941, philanthropist Florence Riford fell in love with the Village. She lived here until her death in 1993, at the age of 100. She’d given the University of California, San Diego $5 million, and more than $5 million more to San Diego and La Jolla, including the land for La Jolla’s library. She also built a private club for herself and her friends to play bridge; it has since evolved into a learning center. Now known as the Riford Center, the littleknown nonprofit facility (located at 6811 La Jolla Blvd.) appeals not just to seniors, but to adults of all ages. For membership fees amounting to just more than $8 per month, members have access to classes on languages, computers, driving, bereavement, dance, exercise and much more. A popular jazzercise class attracts people from 25 to 85, and a data center offers the use of computers and printers. People still play bridge there, as well as Scrabble, Mah Jongg and other games. A pre-Independence Day barbecue (see photos) offered a traditional menu, and an evening

fundraiser is scheduled for July 18.

There’s lots more happening — too much to list here, but call (or check www.therifordcenter.org) for information.

••• Northern La Jolla’s Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute is the venue for “Group of 12 — And Friends,” a monthly discussion group that’s growing rapidly in popularity, now attracting 50 or more attendees on the first Wednesday of each month. They bring a bag lunch (or buy sandwiches there), and socialize for about a half-hour until the month’s speaker begins a one-hour presentation. This month, psychologist Dr. Richard Farson spoke of marriages and other close relationships, giving surprising reasons why couples fight and why today’s parents have such difficulty talking to their kids. His ideas ruffled some feathers while giving listeners something to think about. Lillian Fishman and Reena Horowitz founded the group, and co-chair Doreeen Schonbron helps find the great speakers that draw growing audiences. Upcoming lecturers include authors; experts on art and architecture; leading authorities on earthquakes, magic, and Poland; and an explorer hunting for the lost tomb of Genghis Kahn.
