TIDE LINES

Sealed behind a lens I may have taken a year off from writing Tide Lines but not so from diving, underwater photography and learning more marine science. Now reinvigorated, and with sea pen (and the occasional pun) in hand, I’m enthused to share with you more ocean mysteries, dilemmas, and dramas taking place off our coast. A big hit from early Internet days was a website connected to a webcam, which was set up in front of a home aquarium. Fish swam back and forth, forth and back, 24/7. Remember that? It went viral. Web pundits opined as to why people were captivated by fish in some random guy’s aquarium.The collective view was that it was the first globally shared transmission of something happening in real life in real time that anyone anySEE TIDE LINES >> PG. 6

La Jolla land-use consultant Michael Pallamary is leading the charge on Mayor Bob Filner’s recall, which has gained momentum since alleged sexual-harassment charges first surfaced against Filner July 11. The recall drive actually preceded Filner’s sexual-harassment charges by two weeks, said Pallamary, who’s spearheading the drive and has practical experience, having initiated the successful political recall in 1991 of San Diego City Councilwoman Linda Bernhardt. Pallamary said he foresaw Filner’s political meltdown. “I’ve watched Filner’s relationships deteriorate over the years,” he said, noting Filner has “fought with the city attorney, fought with the press, fought with the city, fought with virtually everyone he’s interfaced with.” Filner’s eroding political situation was “incredibly predictable,” claims Pallamary, who said he set up a Facebook page in full anticipation of Filner’s political reverses. “Very bizarre,” is how Pallamary described the political recall process he’s launching to unseat the mayor. The first step, he said, is to publish in a newspaper of general circulation the intent to recall the mayor and lay out the rationale. Then the mayor

Jeffrey Shorn, La Jolla

It’s inappropriate behavior for a mayor of a city like ours, or any city for that matter, to do what he’s done to women. It’s just inappropriate behavior that doesn’t belong in our government — or in our world. Carol Olten, La Jolla

I really haven’t thought about it that much. I probably would support it, all things considered. I don’t think he will [voluntarily] step down. I think he will ultimately step down at the end of a long process. Jim Carey, UC

I probably think he should be recalled. Due process is always appropriate. Give both sides a chance to be heard. It’s just too controversial. San Diego needs a good mayor. I have nothing personal against Filner, I’m sure he’s done a great job, but he’s simply bringing too much controversy to the table, distracting from the agenda of trying to run the city. It’s an unfortunate circumstance. Katie, Encinitas

Lillian Mulonas, May 30, 1926 ~ July 16, 2013 Lillian “Lil” James was born in Toledo, Ohio on May 30, 1926, of Greek immigrant parents. She was known in her community by her Greek name, Elipiniki, and was called “Niki” by those who knew her best. She was proud of her culture and spoke Greek fluently. When the Greek music started, she was always the first one on the dance floor. Gifted with a beautiful voice, she became a professional singer, performing on radio and in nightclubs in Detroit. She was very proud to have been the opening act for Danny Thomas and many others. She married her first husband, Jack Canaan, in Detroit in 1947. They moved to Southern California shortly after and raised four children in Pacific Beach. She was active in politics, working with Jack on many campaigns, including James Roosevelt’s bid for governor, former California Senate President Pro Tem Jimmy Mills and numerous San Diego campaigns for local judges and council members. In the 1960s, Lil discovered her real passion, astrology, which she practiced professionally until right before her death. Her clients included local politicians, socialites and national celebrities who relied on her

for her knowledge of the stars and general sage advice. “Lil was more than just my personal astrologer, she was also a good friend, who gave me hope as I battled cancer,” said Julie Aigner Clark, founder of Baby Einstein and a client of Mrs. Mulonas’ for many years. “Her words were always inspiring and truthful, as I’ve been cancer free for seven years now.” She wrote an astrology advice column for the Sentinel and appeared as a panelist on the local television show, “What’s my Sign?” She was also the resident astrologer on former San Diego station KSDO in the late 1970s and early ’80s, offering quick astrological readings to callers to the show. She was often invited to speak on astrology at social gatherings and conventions, where she amazed guests with her knowledge and insight. “There was nothing she enjoyed more than a good chat with those who were near and dear to her, and to those who sought her sage wisdom,” said Chris Canaan, her oldest son, who is an Emmy Award-winning writer in Los Angeles.

In 1999, she was blessed with a reunion of her girlhood sweetheart, Nick Mulonas, who was literally “the boy next door.” They had been engaged briefly in 1944, but fate decreed that their unique and remarkable love was to be savored in their later years. They eloped in 2000 and were married in Michigan. For years, they enjoyed the great adventure of driving back and forth in their state-of-the-art RV from San Diego to Detroit where Nick’s family lived. Mrs. Mulonas passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, of complications from COPD at her home in University City on July 16. She was 87. “Mom was reassuring and inspirational to all who knew her,” said her daughter, Mary Wilson. “She could bring a silver lining to the darkest cloud and turn a frown into a smile with an encouraging word.” In addition to her husband Nick, son Chris and daughter Mary Wilson of Lake Arrowhead, she is survived by sons John Canaan of Salt Lake City, Utah; and Robert Canaan of San Diego; and 11 grandchildren. A private service was held in her home on July 21. In lieu of flowers, the family invites those who knew and loved her to toast to her new journey. Opa!

PEOPLE IN THE NEWS >> After a long search, the head of a Florida oceanographic institute has been hired as the new director of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego. MARGARET LEINEN, 67, executive director of the Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute in Florida, was named to replace Tony Haymet. Hamet led the institution from 2006 until he stepped down from that post in 2012. Leinen will also serve as vice chancellor for marine sciences and dean of the School of Marine Sciences. She will join UC San Diego in October. A researcher in paleo-oceanography and paleo-climatology, Leinen served for seven years at the National Science Foundation overseeing a $700 million annual budget. La Jolla resident and 2013 La Jolla High School graduate MAURA KANTER recently earned the Girl Scout Gold Award, the organization’s high-

est honor. For her Gold Award project, Kanter added several new resources geared toward LJHS students to the La Jolla Public Library. Kanter — who is a board member of Friends of the La Jolla Branch Library — coordinated multiple student events, including a book signing with bestselling author Michael Scott and a lecture series with a college counselor. She also created a “college room” at the library filled with SAT and ACT test preparation books, college guides and other texts for high school students. The college room recently received a grant from San Diego for two computers. With help from the school’s math team, Kanter developed a library-based tutoring program for students. Kanter became a Girl Scout 12 years ago when she joined the organization as a Brownie. She has also earned the Girl Scout Bronze and Silver awards as an Independent Girl Member. Girl Scouts is a tradition in her family; her sister Elyssa earned the Gold Award in 2011. She will soon begin her freshman year at Johns Hopkins University, where she was accepted as a Hodson Trust scholar.


News Future uncertain for post office What’s for certain about the La Jolla Post Office at 1140 Wall St. is that the United States Postal Service (USPS) intends to divest itself of it. Beyond that, what’s to become of the historically designated building — who is to own it and where it will end up — remains a mystery. A July 3 “final determination” letter by the U.S. Postal Service stated, “We appreciate heartfelt attachment to the La Jolla Post Office building. … Our financial circumstances force us to pursue every opportunity to reduce costs and generate revenues.” Following that decision, postal authorities said they were in a holding pattern in taking the next step, but professed an openness to discuss options. “We have not started the process … no new location has been secured,” said communications specialist Eva Jackson with the Postal Service San Diego District. “Our headquarters has approved the relocation of retail services, and it has to be as close to the current location as possible.” La Jolla’s Post Office is 14,451 square feet, more than double the approximately 6,000 square feet which is needed, Jackson said. Noting “every relocation is unique,” Jackson said a relocation “typically takes a year.” Asked if there were any circum-

stances under which the USPS would consider remaining at 1140 Wall St., Jackson replied, “If the building were purchased and we were asked to lease back space, we

? would love to do that. That would be the best of both worlds.” Post office officials declined to discuss the value of La Jolla’s postal facility, stating that was “proprietary” information. Leslie Davis, chairwoman of Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force, which has been fighting for a year

and a half to preserve the 78-yearold Depression-era facility, said the Postal Service’s “nondisclosure” of the building’s value makes it difficult for the community to respond. “The post office is not for sale,” said Davis. “The post office says they have no estimate of value. It’s difficult to do a business plan — and difficult to raise money — under these circumstances with such a secretive process on the part of the USPS.” Davis said there are several developers interested in purchasing the building. Concerning the possibility of the community’s purchasing the property, Davis said, ”La Jolla Historical Society board has requested a business plan from the Save Our La Jolla Post Office Task Force before approving any kind of pledge drive. It’s a difficult chicken-and-egg process at this point.” Nonetheless, Davis said, “We are proceeding with a business plan.” Pointing out the USPS is losing money nationwide “because people are not using the mail like they used to” with the Internet, Jackson said some interesting things have been done nationwide redeveloping postal facilities which have been relocated. “One building in Texas was made into a museum,” Jackson said. “Another in Louisiana was made into a bed and breakfast.”

QUICKHIT >> CITY COUNCIL ENDORSES SCRIPPS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL EXPANSION — The City Council voted unanimously July 29 to grant a number of land-use entitlements allowing Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla to demolish existing structures on its 41-plus acre campus at 9888 Genesee Ave. and replace them with a net increase of more than 350,000 square feet of new medical office and hospital facilities. The proposed expansion includes an increase of hospital

District 1 Councilwoman Sherri Lightner said that $19 million the hospital will pay in development impact fees will “create jobs, bring the city revenues and provide quality and efficient health care to the region.” Pointing out most people don’t think of it as such, Ninth District Councilwoman Marti Emerald noted “hospitals are part of our infrastructure,” adding Scripps “is willing to make an investment, not only in their facilities but in this community.”

Renowned architect’s La Jolla ties are ‘fabulous’ Architect and designer Bill Georgis has said he hears one phrase most often from clients: “Just make it fabulous.” In a retrospective monograph of 18 of his projects from recent years, Georgis did just that. “Make It Fabulous: The Architecture and Designs of William T. Georgis,” released by Monacelli Press in June, showcases Georgis’ eclectic style —

which he says is more a reflection of his clients than himself. “Ideally, each project looks different, and the reason is that we’re careful about listening to clients,” he said. “I try to make a place for them in the world that suits them.” With a background in art history, Georgis delved into architecture in the 1980s and has built a name — and quite a name, at that — on his interpreta-

It has to be meaningful on a daily basis to [the clients].” Though much of his work is centered in New York (where he is based), Georgis counts on his list of favorite projects his own private home in La Jolla. Featured in the new book, the house, Georgis said, underwent an extensive rebirth, during which he demolished “unsympathetic” additions, reconfigured the interior space and, when the home re-emerged as a modernist work of art, christened it “The Akropolis.” The home is a testament to Georgis’ attention to detail.

would have 14 days to rebut the recall arguments. Following that, the recall could be launched with petitioners having 69 days (39 originally) to gather 101,000 signatures (more like 130,000 or 140,000 to be safe) from 15 percent of eligible registered voters citywide. Asked about a recall’s chance of qualifying for an election ballot, Pallamary said, “We expect it to be a challenge,” but added, “If you have motivated and angry people, you’ll qualify. If you look at the pulse of the city, I think there are a lot of angry people right now.” If a recall petition drive is successful, Pallamary said the City Council “must call an election.” And on that election ballot, Pallamary said there would be just two questions: Should Mayor Filner be recalled, yes or no. If the answer is yes, voters would then be asked to select from a list of candidates to replace Filner. Since there could be multiple candidates — and because to win outright a candidate would have to get a 50 percent-plus-one majority — the likelihood is that an election would have to be called between the top two vote-

getters. The situation could be even more complicated if Filner should voluntarily resign. Then, said Pallamary, a special election, as opposed to a recall election, would have to be held. If no candidate in a special election gets a majority of the vote then, again, there would be runoff election between the top two candidates. “Now you have two elections versus just one at an extraordinary cost,” said Pallamary. “My worst fear, if he does resign and we run into that runoff, is that it will be an extremely expensive, extremely hostile and extremely partisan campaign.” On July 22, following a news conference during which Irene McCormack Jackson, Filner’s former communications director, stepped forward with formal accu-

FILNER TO TAKE LEAVE OF ABSENCE TO SEEK THERAPY

At a July 26 press conference, Mayor Bob Filner apologized to all San Diegans, in particular the women he has offended, and said he would be taking a two-week leave of absence beginning Aug. 5. Filner said he will undergo intensive professional therapy to work through his issuesé with women to change his behavior in light of sexual-harassment allegations. Filner s statement, however, was not satisfactory to some at City Hall. Two weeks of therapy will not end decades of bad behavior,é said District 2 City Councilman Kevin Faulconer. Bob Filner should leave to receive the help he obviously

needs, but he shouldn t take the office of the mayor and San Diego city government with him. He needs to resign and seek long-term treatment as a private citizen.é District 6 Councilwoman Lorie Zapf agreed. At the end of the day, Mayor Filner continues to put his needs in front of the needs of his victims and the needs of citizens of San Diego. He is the mayor of the eighth-largest city in the country and he must be held to a higher standard. By not stepping down, it is an insult to the victims, and an insult to women everywhere.é Last month, former City Council-

City Clerk Liz Maland said Pallamary will have until Sept. 26 to collect nearly 102,000 valid signatures on his recall petitions, equal to 15 percent of the registered voters in San Diego. The City Attorney's Office is studying whether multiple recall campaigns are allowed.

sations of sexual harassment against the mayor, City Attorney Jan Goldsmith spelled out the city’s role regarding Filner’s defense. Noting his office “would defend the city well,” and that Filner had retained attorney Harvey Berger as his own personal legal counsel, Goldsmith, who has frequently been at odds with Filner, said the mayor has been instructed “not to meet with women alone at city facilities.” Filner asked the City Council to reimburse his personal legal expenses, but the council unanimously rejected the request July 30. Instead, the council filed a cross-complaint seeking reimbursement from Filner should city government be required to pay damages when the lawsuit is resolved.

woman Donna Frye and two highprofile attorneys urged Filner to resign immediately, alleging sexualharassment accusations from women who did not immediately come forward. The first woman to do so, former Filner communications director Irene McCormack Jackson, 57, represented by renowned civil-rights attorney Gloria Allred, announced July 22 that a sexual-harassment lawsuit was being filed against the mayor and the city of San Diego. As of July 31, a total of eight women had emerged to allege Filner had acted inappropriately toward them, making physical contact and/or unwanted sexual advances.

These are reasons I log onto the seal webcam (www.wanconservancy.org/seal_media.htm) in La Jolla. I take a mental-health break, see what the seals are doing and gain a fresh perspective on my life. Sometimes the seals are there; sometimes not. The tide ebbs and flows. Seals jockey for position. Seagulls strut with impunity around the lounging bodies. I’m a seal voyeur. It’s fun. And maybe you are watching at the same time. For official seal cam operators, docents and other nature observers, watching seal behavior is more scientific. Since they log hours consistently, I asked if some would share a highlight so I could learn vicariously. In turn, I now share them with you:

LaDuke said, “The two seals, of equal size, submerged then remerge again and again for the entire 4 hours of my cam operation. What looked like grieving seems at odds with what is known about seals’ notoriously solitary behavior.” Schoepflin said, “The next morning on the sand, the healthy seal rested its head on what was clearly the dead seal's body. Over the course of hours, the healthy seal periodically raised its head and opened it mouth, appearing to vocalize (without sound I can only surmise). A cluster of seals surrounded. The next day the dead seal was gone, returned to the ocean by the tide.”

Outplay, outwit, outlast Generally, abandoned seal pups less than 3 days old won’t survive, but Jennifer Rogge has been tracking an exception. She said, “I would watch ‘Rocky’ on the camera at night stealing milk and getting a terrible thrashing from the moms when they awoke to see a strange pup suckling. For five weeks, Rocky’s nightly milk raids grew more stealthy, with the moms sometimes sleeping through Rocky’s suckling. Now Rocky is self-reliant and thriving; I frequently see Rocky swimming with a pup half his size. Whether Rocky is a he or she I don’t know, but this pup deserves the name for never giving up despite the odds and adversity.”

She flipped sand onto her back with her flippers, a cooling behavior characteristic of this species. A young harbor seal followed close by as she maneuvered her massive body into a depression. After a brief rest, she lugged her body to the water’s edge. I was astonished when the young harbor seal followed, the pair heading back into the ocean in lock step. After a

LA JOLLA TODAY

Summer Walk combines art, community and all things summer Kids chased soap bubbles and scrawled with chalk on sidewalks while their parents strolled and mingled with neighbors to live musical accompaniment at Bird Rock’s first-ever Summer Walk July 25. “It’s a pretty good turnout. There’s lots of odds and ends — little art projects,” said Bird Rock Coffee Roasters owner Chuck Patton, who had an open mic going at 5627 La Jolla Blvd. “It’s just nice to give people a reason to come down and walk around — that doesn’t happen enough. “The great thing about this is it didn’t require a lot on the part of the merchants,” Patton continued. “It was strictly casual, a low-effort affair. The great thing is people are responding to it.” Down the street at La Jolla Independent BMW at 5535 La Jolla Blvd., crafter Rob Baumgart was busy teaching children how to convert damaged metal car hoods into ornamental art. Baumgart said he got the idea about seven years ago working with the children of the body shop’s owners. “We just started playing around and I hammered out a turtle one day and it evolved from there,” he said, standing underneath one of his more challenging — and col-

orful — sculptures, a painted humpback whale. Metal sculpture is mostly a hobby, noted Baumgart, who said it takes about 10 hours to hammer out a whale, though it takes significantly less time for one of his trademark terrapins. Baumgart has fashioned more than 100 metal turtles and sold or donated them to people for special occasions. Asked if metal sculpture was tough to do, Baumgart said he has taught kids at Bird Rock Elementary School “who’d never hammered anything how to make a (turtle).” Bird Rock artist Jane Wheeler helped youngsters create sidewalk chalk drawings at the event. Wheeler said the La Jolla neighborhood is rapidly becoming a mecca for arts and crafts, boasting four main galleries — Bird Rock Art Nest of La Jolla at 5648 La Jolla Blvd.; Bird rock Arts Gallery & Studio at 5785 La Jolla Blvd.; Suite B, GALERIe at 5629 La Jolla Blvd.;

UCBRIEF >> University City High School graduate (class of 1991) Garrett Lees recently launched a solar electric company called University City Photons. The company, named in honor of Lees’ hometown and as a tribute to Albert Einstein (who called the particle of sun energy a photon), offers solarelectric systems designed and installed by Lees. After graduating from UC Berkeley, Lees returned to San Diego to teach at UCSD. When 9/11 happened, however, Lees decided to join the Army, where he served for nine years in military intelligence and received the Joint Services Achievement Medal for operations support. He was honorably dis-

charged and again returned to San Diego to pursue solar energy. After attending the Solar Training Institute in Sorrento Valley and the Solar Energy International in Paonia, Colo., as well as seminars by the California Center for Sustainable Energy, Lees began volunteering with Grid Alternatives, a nonprofit that provides solar energy to low-income families in San Diego. After supervising construction crews as project manager for a well-known local solar electric company, Lees decided to venture out on his own. He passed the State of California’s Contractors State License Board exam for the C046 Solar Contractor License, and opened the doors to University City Photons.

All things fashion: Hats, film and red carpet

2013 La Jolla Hat Show The La Jolla Hat Show was presented at Eddie V’s on July 10. Serving as a pre-celebration for Opening Day at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, the fashionable event, which began in the Green Dragon Lounge with a social hour and accessory shopping to the sounds of the Manny Cepeda band, was orchestrated by Mary Soriano. The guests enjoyed a three-course luncheon overlooking La Jolla Cove. The fashion show began with tunes from DJ Rockstar highlighting accessories to wear to the Del Mar Racetrack. Custom-made hats by Diana Cavagnaro — Couture Hats were accessorized by semi precious jewelry by Juelerie. Pamela Pogue is the designer for Juelerie and creates incredible one-of-a-kind semi-precious designs. Designer Eyewear from the Optical Shop of Aspen accented the hats and jewelry. The second segment of the show featured Greenpacha Hats — for which founder Julieta Gomez Gerbi employs weavers from Ecuador to hand weave the beautiful creations — accessorized by gorgeous silver jewelry from Uno de 50. After the fashion show each one

Scott Leshner (24 yrs. old), a business major, moved to San Diego from New Jersey last year, to take advantage of the beautiful weather and the gnarly waves.

Steven Massey (26 yrs. old), a San Diego native, has been running a successful mobile detailing business for the past 15 years. His uncle owned and operated one of the very first mobile detailing businesses in San Diego and taught Steven everything he knew on how to run a lucrative detailing business.

are only a few of its one-of-a-kind features. The mirrors, which Georgis brought out to a range in Ramona and shot himself, were inspired by one of his oft-recurring themes — old Hollywood. “I had this idea. The concept was of an aging starlet going into a powder room and, seeing her reflection, becoming enraged and shooting out the mirrors,” he said. “Make It Fabulous” features in eye-catching detail the La Jolla home, along with Georgis’ other impossibly opulent projects, including beach homes, summer mansions, a Chinese restaurant and a seven-story, 12,000-square-foot townhome on New York City’s Upper East Side. “With every project, I take a very different approach,” he said. “I always look to the local culture, and the variations in locations are what makes it interesting. That’s the beauty of it — you have more freedom and space outside of a city, but working within existing buildings, as in New York, the constrained conditions and limitations become inspiring.” “Make It Fabulous” is available from Monacelli Press for $50. For more information on Georgis, visit williamtgeorgis.com.

Christopher Canole is noticeable. You may have seen him sketching at the Pannikin café, a longstanding La Jolla institution. One could argue, so is Canole. To a casual observer, this guy with a Bohemian air might be mistaken for a sidewalk artist. This is far from the mark, however. Canole might do your portrait, but it would be a departure from the body of work he is trying to produce. Over the past decades, you might have seen Canole in a previous incarnation, perhaps as a helmeted fellow making his way through traffic. You’d have recognized him even with a helmet — his self-designed café racing motorcycles and signature black leather garb are a giveaway. Maybe you’d know him better in tight white attire and mask. After captaining the UCSD fencing team

he became coach for two years, and is still available for anyone who might be filming a fencing scene. Since a renewed interest in visual art has gotten hold of Canole, he wields a pencil rather than an epée. He’s lost the beard. Underneath the masks, helmets and facial hair resides another manifestation of the same guy. As a physics undergrad at UCSD, Chris took chemistry with Linus Pauling. He graduated from Cal Arts. France chose him to represent the U.S. as an artist-in-residence in sculpture. He once established the Guinness World Book Record for longest conversation. (Like many Pannikin regulars at the time, I reserved a 15-minute slot as one of his many interlocutors.) I first took note of Canole as a teenager. He’d just returned from

Dining A food revolution, one delivery at a time Try as we all might, the battle most of us wage to eat healthy on a regular basis is often a losing one. Work, family, social obligations — not to mention the everpresent temptation of the convenience of fast food — make it difficult to stick to any sort of schedule that involves fresh, healthy meals. There’s a new game in town, however, that aims to help you do just that. Startup uberfood, a fooddelivery service dedicated to local, seasonal, organic and fresh meals, has been serving up the families of La Jolla, Del Mar and Carmel Valley since January, and the enterprise is growing steadily. Casey Knapp, uberfood’s food captain, was approached by uberfood co-founder Gen Furukawa on the day he took his last final exam at Cornell. Furukawa, who also had Cornell ties, presented the idea of a local food-delivery service that would strictly serve what many people wanted and felt were missing — healthy, fresh meals delivered straight to their home. Knapp, who had grown up on an organic dairy farm in upstate New York, jumped at the chance to bring his nutrition ideals to the opposite corner of the country, where an unnamed investor, who lives in Bird Rock, wanted to test out the initiative. “I could always see the benefits of healthy eating, and I wanted people to be able to enjoy that in an easy way,” Knapp said. Knapp claims uberfood is doing something entirely unique to San Diego. While there may be chefs who create organic, seasonal menus and deliver them to a limited number of clients, uberfood, Knapp said, is different in that it employs an entire team — chefs, organizers and a fleet of delivery drivers — dedicated to bringing hundreds of meals to the community every week. Every Wednesday, uberfood delivers dinner, made that same afternoon, to homes across the region (they hope to expand to more areas of San Diego soon). The menu changes weekly, with meat and vegetarian options, salads, desserts and more available for everything from singles to large families. The company works with several local farms to source fresh produce. On a recent Wednesday, uberfood delivered a meal to La Jollan Julie Cockrell to feed her family that night. A busy mother, Cockrell said the service is a “lifesaver,” pointing to the large chalkboard in her living room that kept a schedule all the various activities family members had going that day. “It’s stuff that I would cook — if I had time — and I really value being able to put good food in my

HEALTH&BEAUTY BRIEFS >> Hearing Loss - Are You Ready For Solutions? Sure, we all know about hearing aids but not many of us know about hearing aid technology. Today's hearing aids are low-profile, they're automated, provide natural, clear sound, are comfortable to wear and, let’s face it, they put you back in the game. These are NOT your grand-dad's hearing aids. Hearing aids, today are small, discreet and extremely comfortable. They are tuned by a professional on computer software to address specific hearing loss. Do you watch TV or talk on the phone? Try “Bluetooth” technology – Hearing instruments are now available in wireless so your hearing aids become receivers for wireless communications including television and telephone. (Yes, even an old landline). If your phone rings, just push a button and, voila, you're connected by phone. You don’t have to hit the mute button on your TV. You don’t even have to get off the couch. These systems can be set up quickly by your hearing care professional. For more information call Carole Van Straten at Seacoast Hearing Care in La Jolla. (858) 922-8941.

What makes the La Jolla Wellness Studio stand apart from other fitness centers, is the technological approach it employs, utilizing vibration technology and focusing on the equal importance of preparation and recovery time. First time visitors have their body scanned to produce a 15-point comprehensive analysis that personalizes the exact areas and measurements to focus on. Then comes the workout, if you can even call it that. Unlike a sweaty and exhausting trip to the gym, here you can come in as you are at any point of the day. The process consists of three intervals; you begin by standing on a vibrating platform that prepares your muscles for action, then four minutes on the range of motion device, and followed by six minutes laying on a horizontal vibrating platform that facilitates muscle recovery and prevents aches and pains.

To find a good provider, contact home care agencies that are members of professional trade associations such as the California Association for Health Services at Home (CAHSAH) or the American Board of Home Care (ABHC).

Rosenberg (LJP managing director)

with Vincent Andrunas

Those superbly creative folks at the La Jolla Playhouse (LJP) are doing what they do best, producing one great play after another. “Tribes,” an eye-opening play about dealing with deafness, debuted June 25. Its closing night was July 21, the same evening that “Sideways” opened elsewhere in the theater complex. Directed by popular LJP director emeritus Des McAnuff, “Sideways” is a new play from Rex Pickett’s novel — and the familiar 2004 hit movie — of the same name; the comedy-drama of Miles and Jack’s “oneophilial odyssey;” a last central California wine tasting buddy-trip before Jack’s looming weekend wedding. LJP supporters attending the opening night pre-play reception enjoyed (what else?) multiple wine tasting stations. There were also food stations serving filet mignon, salmon, chicken, cheeses, etc. — things that go nicely with wine. All were catered, at minimal cost, by Authentic Flavors. A three-piece band played, and comfy lounge furniture provided relaxing seating indoors and out. With “Tribes” and “Sideways” both running that evening, LJP managing director Michael Rosenberg, eager to ensure that guests were in the right place, announced, “That SIDEWAYS: above: Camille and David show is about sign language; this Saltman, Ellen and David Dolgen, show is about wine language.” Lots of Naomi and John Berry laughter accompanied his ad-libbed comment, prompting Rosenberg to muse, “I don’t know why Chris Ashley [LJP artistic director] never asked me to write a play for LJP.” It’s a legitimate question — actually, both Rosenberg and Ashley are quite quick with the wit, and it’s been said before that they’d make great latenight talk show tag-team hosts. For now, though, they’ll keep their day jobs. They also took a moment to thank

the Artistic Director’s Circle — Joan and Irwin Jacobs, Sheri and Dr. Stuart Jamieson, Becky Moores, Lucille and Ronald Neely, and the Dr. Seuss Fund — without whose help it would be impossible to accomplish all they do at LJP. Rosenberg also gratefully observed there is no other city in America that’s as supportive of the arts as is the city of San Diego. The play, a hilarious R-rated saga of good wine and bad behavior, played to raucous laughter from the packed house. It’s not just a stage version of the movie; many new twists and attractions (including a wild boar hunt, for example) have been added to the mix. Cast and crew joined guests at a post-performance party, where conversation confirmed that the play was indeed a hit. “Sideways” runs through Aug. 25 — but get a babysitter; this one’s definitely for adult audiences. *** People have been taking round-theworld trips since the Magellan-Elanco expedition returned to Spain in 1522. U.S. Grant did it voluntarily after his second presidential term, countless troops were given “free” trips during World War II, and astronauts hold the records for both speed and frequency. But even now, it’s so costly and timeconsuming that relatively few people accomplish the feat. The Circumnavigators’ Club is an international organization devoted to bringing together those men and women who have circumnavigated the globe. With a goal of encouraging global fellowship and understanding, the club strives to inspire people to see and absorb as much as they can about the world they live in, and to share the benefits of their experiences with others. The club’s San Diego chapter held its annual dinner event July 28 at Marilyn Barrett’s La Jolla home. The theme was “A Cruise to Hawaii.” Partygoers wore Hawaiian fashions and the hostess decorated with tropical themes, including a grand replica of the cruise ship SS Norway. After a cocktail reception, guests enjoyed a buffet dinner, and circumnavigator Clara Blenis spoke articulately and at some length of her travels and experiences in Switzerland, a country clearly favored by many of the attendees.

Summer entertaining — the La Jolla way ew things are better than having a functional and beautiful outdoor space to entertain guests, and though in La Jolla we can entertain all year long, summer still holds that allure that makes us want to do everything outdoors — especially dining and entertaining. There are many things homeowners can do to ensure their entertaining space is safe and functional. Here are a few key tips for readying your yard for entertaining possibilities. Check the area for any needed repairs. Are there any loose railings? Are all screws and nails flush so they do not cause tripping? Are there any cracks in concrete or loose patio blocks? Be sure to remedy all of the repairs needed to ensure guests will be safe. If you are unsure of any structural deficits,

F

consult with a contractor. Several locals come to mind — Mueller Homes, GDC Construction, Dewhurst & Associates, Murfey Construction, Vaudois Handley Construction/House Dr. Rx, Grunow Construction — the options are limitless. Hire a reputable contractor. If you are just laying the groundwork for a new patio or deck, it is important to get the necessary permits and then hire a person who has been properly vetted. Check qualifications and licensing before hiring a contractor and ask to view a portfolio of his or her previous work. Word-of-mouth recommendations from trusted friends and family members are good, and you can also double-check qualifications by contacting the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints have been lodged. The perfect resource? The La Jolla Blue Book,

which lists contact information and more (www.lajollabluebook.com). Think about closing in a portion of a deck or patio. The use of a canopy, netting or even greenery to protect an entertaining space can help minimize weather-related damage to outdoor furniture. Plan well-defined areas. Just as rooms serve different purposes inside of the home, outdoor areas can be separated according to usage. Establish a sitting nook where guests can gather and talk. Have a bar or serving area where refreshments are made and served. Make sure there is a shaded area for when the sun is too uncomfortable to make sitting outside enjoyable. Similarly, have a sunny area where people can soak up a few rays or dry off after a dip in the spa or pool. Don’t forget to establish a spot for the kids to converge with scaled-down amenities. For help

with planning, consult a local interior designer, like Kathleen Buoymaster, Sheila Palmer Design or Spencer and Company. Consider a fireplace or fire pit. Having a backyard fireplace, pit or chiminea is a conversation-starter, a decorative focal point and a functional tool to extend the number of seasons in which outdoor entertaining can take place. Invest in quality outdoor furniture. Today’s yards are extensions of a home’s interior. Guests no longer want to sit on uncomfortable metal or plastic furniture. Again, an interior designer can be a big help in matching the decor inside your home for a cohesive look.

Accessorize. Consider the comforts of indoors and mimic that outdoors. Don't shy away from hanging artwork on an exterior wall or using urns or pottery to decorate the space. Weather-resistant materials ensure everything from clocks to televisions can be used outdoors. Think about having an entire set of serving dishes and other entertaining items for the outdoors. Local shops with unique odds and ends abound in La Jolla. Check out The Faded Awning, Patina Gifts or Warwick’s for some one-of-a-kind décor.

LAST CHANCE TO

purchase a new Bentley. The commission is divided first between the cooperating brokers — the listing broker and the selling broker — so simply stated, if the commission is 6 percent, the split to each broker is 3 percent. That 3 percent is then further split between broker and agent, according their agreement. No matter how you do the math, many people still feel the agent is overpaid, and unfortunately that sentiment emerges from undeserved negative stigmas about the industry. Real-estate agents perform very valuable services and most work very diligently to satisfy their clients. Keep in mind that the agent is a small business owner — an independent contractor. Like any business, the commission earned is disbursed for direct expenses that benefit the client, and the residual, if any, is used to cover indirect operating expenses to stay active and to properly and professionally serve the needs of the public.

FAVORITE VOTE

Another point worthy of comment — and for sure it will meet with brick wall opposition — is that the gross selling price of your home already includes a built-in presumption for selling commissions. Consider that any product purchased off of the shelf like cereal, lingerie or cars includes a cost factor for manufacturing, wages of workers, advertising, delivery, selling commissions, royalties, profits and more. Before we close out this article, let’s go back to commission cutting. It is interesting to witness how sellers are more likely to select the agent most willing to reduce their commission rate rather than an agent who has a rock-solid marketing plan to get homes sold fast. This is a classic example of the phrase “penny-wise and poundfoolish.” Your house must sell within the first 30 days, otherwise you risk becoming “day-old bread,” losing a lot more money in the form of future price reduc-

tions and monthly homeownership costs to pay for a house you no longer want to live in. Do you really think that your agent will work as hard for a 5 percent commission as they would at a 6 percent commission? Perhaps! But remember that commissions are split four ways between brokers and agents, so the motivation for a buyer’s agent to bring a buyer to the party is likely reduced. Knowledge has great power. Before you make a move in real estate, go back and re-read all our past articles in La Jolla Today, and then cumulatively use the value of that information to help you make more informed decisions.

Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. ou have received an invitation to a party. It’s a month away, so you put it aside. There is plenty of time to answer; you have more urgent calls to make. A friend became a grandparent; you meant to send a card but never got to a store to pick one up. A subordinate made an excellent presentation; you make a mental note to congratulate him. Your boss was on TV; you plan to say something about it the next time you see her. A colleague’s project got funded; you will send a note when you have a minute. The staff meeting you attended was well run and very productive; you were going to mention it to the group leader but had to leave early. You meant to return those phone calls but misplaced the little message slip. So what happened? You never answered the party invitation, which got buried under a pile of papers, and your irate friend called

Y

Good intentions the day before the event to ask whether you’re coming or not. You apologize for being a boor or you lie about not having received it. You never got to congratulate your subordinate, your boss, your colleague, nor the group leader. You also didn’t return the phone calls. It wasn’t the right time, you forgot or it didn’t seem appropriate days later. What I’m writing about is all too common. It happens to most of us. We don’t give positive feedback the importance it requires. Some people feel awkward giving a compliment; others believe it’s not necessary, thinking: “When somebody does a good job, he or she knows about it and doesn’t need to be told.” Not true! Everyone appreciates a comment, the notice of a job well done, a pat on the back. Too few ever get it. Even if you’re the type that gets embarrassed when complimented, remember most people appreciate it. It means that you not only noticed, but you cared enough to say so — you extended yourself in a gesture of friendship. So next time, don’t make it a mental note, make it a memo and send it out immediately. Don’t end your day

Everyone appreciates a comment, the notice of a job well done, a pat on the back. Too few ever get it. before returning the calls and emails and sharing your feedback. Make it a priority to stop by your boss’ office and congratulate her personally. Call up your colleague that night and say how pleased you were to hear of the funding. Tell your subordinate how proud you are of him. Acknowledge to the team leader how much you appreciated the productivity of the meeting, respond to that party invitation the day you receive it and return those calls or risk forgetting them all together. Friends have birthdays, publish books, give great parties and go on trips. Taking note of these events, remembering, congratulating and showing pleasure at their accomplishments are meaningful manifestations of one’s caring. What is friendship if not participating in

each other’s lives? And when painful things happen to friends, it is even more necessary to call and show concern. A friend of mine just got divorced under very negative and public circumstances. She said I was the only one to call. The same thing happens when someone dies. Maybe you send a card, and you intend to call, but you don’t because it’s hard to know what to say. You feel uncomfortable and awkward because you wish to be helpful but don’t know how. The intention is there, but the follow up is postponed until a more propitious time, which, of course, never arrives. In my college alumni newsletter, I read that a former classmate’s husband had died. I had had no

contact with her for many years but made a point of sending my condolences. She wrote back how important it was to have heard from me. When I see her at our next reunion, we will reconnect better because of my note. As I was flipping through channels this week, I saw a friend from Washington, D.C. on television talking about her latest book. I called her right away to congratulate her. I could tell from her voice how pleased she was that I did. It was worth it for both of us, and it cemented an already good friendship even more. So, for better or for worse, notice and be there with condolences or congratulations. It is the small, unexpected gestures that matter most.

Orphaned furniture helps orphaned animals

SUMMER WALK >>

Helen Woodward Animal Center kicks off its next venture on Aug. 3 with the opening of its new resale shop, Orphaned Objects. Located at the center, the shop will offer treasure hunters gently used items like furniture; bicycles; jewelry; sporting goods; pet supplies; artwork; books; housewares; designer clothing; high-end antique items; and a kid’s corner with games, toys and doll houses. Funds from the resale shop go directly to the orphan pets at Helen Woodward Animal Center. The grand opening will take place at 10 a.m. Aug. 3 with food, fun, fuzzy friends and shopping. A treasure hunt for $5 gift certificates — which will be hidden throughout the store in dog and cat animal statues — will reap rewards for those who find them first. Over the past several months,

Caran d’Ache headstone, graphite stone created on a lathe. The portraits, each representing around 80 hours of labor, depict people who have influenced his psyche. This might look like a series of drawings of other people but on the whole it’s a kind of self-portrait. I recognize Albert Einstein and President Obama. There’s Sophia Loren, Frida Kahlo, Leonardo da

Helen Woodward Animal Center staff and volunteers have been hard at work cleaning, painting, prepping and sorting donation items. La Jolla’s Ark Antiques donated high-end antique items, while UTC’s My Sister’s Closet gave designer clothing for the opening event. The idea of turning the former animal hospital into a resale shop grew out of the incredible success of previous years’ Wags to Riches Rummage Sales, Helen Woodward’s annual oneday rummage-sale. Regular business hours will be Tuesdays through Saturdays 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Donations will be accepted during store business hours. Due to the value and fragile nature of many of the specialty items and antiques, pets are not allowed inside the store.

For information, visit www.animalcenter.org/orphanedobjects, call (858) 756-4117 or stop by Helen Woodward Animal Center at 6461 El Apajo Road in Rancho Santa Fe.

Vinci and Yasunari Kawabata (whom I did not recognize). Some portraits are friends and locals. Canole’s work is fundamentally about relationship. It has also been therapeutic. In his earlier years, many of his projects took him outside of popular culture: Taoism, sculpting. He now gets to re-experience some of this stuff for the first time. He can appreciate these lost decades — maybe regain them — through a prism of abstraction, reading about his subjects, reminiscing with others and, of course, drawing.

The project is also a tribute to interdependence and gratitude. When Canole’s parents died when he was 11, his aunt and uncle raised him. So much in life has materialized for him due to the kindness of others, he says, that he sees other people as the source of great things. The show opens Thursday, Aug. 1, at The Pannikin, 7467 Girard Ave. with a reception from 4 to 6 p.m. To learn more about the La Jolla man, visit www.canole.com. Or, ask him. He’s almost always ready to chat.

tricts after hours. “It’s a community event with an artist twist,” she said. For the event, restaurants along the commercial strip offered dinner specials, while All About Animals pet shop provided dog tattoos and Jerry Klein at A Better Deal Tuxedo had a magician on the sidewalk and another shop owner had a makeup artist out front. There was a musician playing — and demonstrating how to play — an Australian Aboriginal didgeridoo in front of the new Chase Bank branch. “The music was all grass roots from the community, people donating their time and doing their creativity, which is fun,” said Wheeler, adding singers from La Jolla High and Muirlands Middle School also entertained passers-by. “It was a chance for businesses to show off what they have and for people to

find out that they’re there and stumble upon them in a fun way.” Wheeler said there’s a synergy between art and business in Bird Rock. “People are picking up and incorporating art into their business,” she said. “It just makes for a more vibrant community and a more interesting place to come and shop. If you can fuse the two together, you can create an environment that’s really creative and successful.” The event was deemed a success afterward. “I think the Summer Walk was a huge success,” concluded Bird Rock Community Council (BRCC) president Jacqueline Bell. “We had great neighborhood turnout and everyone I talked with had a good time.” Bell said there hasn’t been time yet to make any decisions about hosting future similar events. “The board will discuss the matter at our next meeting (in September),” she said.

IN THE NEWS Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty ‘Power Trio’ Celebrates Tremendous Growth Anniversary of Strategic Alliance Highlights the Firm’s Continued Expansion as the County’s Fastest-Growing Real Estate Brokerage (San Diego, California) July 22, 2013: After just one year since announcing the strategic partnership between Brian Arrington, Steve Games and Nyda Jones-Church, Pacific Sotheby's International Realty has experienced tremendous growth and now counts itself as one of San Diego’s top five real estate firms. Trendgraphix, one of the nation’s leading providers of real estate market data, reports Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty as the fastest growing real estate company in San Diego County with closed sales volume up over 100 percent, and reports indicating that pending sales could reach as high as 1,000 percent over the same time last year. Since creating the “Power Trio” in June 2012, Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty has opened additional locations in Rancho Santa Fe, Fairbanks Ranch, Del Mar, and Downtown San Diego with additional plans to open in Encinitas in August. Its offices in Point Loma, Mission Hills, Coronado, La Jolla, and La Mesa have also grown as the brokerage continues to expand its market share. “The dynamic partnership we’ve created combines the best in leadership experience, cutting-edge technology, high-end marketing and the unrivaled global reach of the Sotheby’s International Realty brand,” says founding partner and CEO Brian Arrington. “This combination continues to attract new agents and clients. The result is powerful – frankly, nothing is better.” Pacific Sotheby's International Realty now boasts approximately 330 agents—up about 65 percent from one year ago, when the firm had nearly 200. “Our vision for Pacific Sotheby's Realty is not to be the biggest in San Diego or Southern California, but definitely to be the best,” says Chairman Steve Games. “We have worked hard to make this vision a reality by building the support and infrastructure our agents need, which has allowed them to significantly increase their production.” “Our agents appreciate the fact that we truly are a locally-owned and managed company. We view our company as a family business and we are present and available to support our agents and employees everyday,” adds COO Nyda Jones-Church.

MUSTSUPPORT >> On Aug. 3, the San Diego Junior Lifeguard Festival™ will start with its first WILLIE CALABRESE

MEM-ORIAL RUN/SWIM/RUN in honor of William Calabrese, a Pacific Beach native who passed away Sept. 2 after being critically injured in a fireworks accident. The event will be held on the beach at 3400 Ocean Front Walk and 700

Ventura Place in Mission Beach, and is open to the public. The event involves a two-mile run from Mission Beach to Crystal Pier, a half-mile swim around the pier, and a two-mile run back to the finish line. Check-in is at 6:30 a.m. and the event starts at 8 a.m. Calabrese, who was a certified lifeguard and an Eagle Scout, played water polo for La Jolla High School until graduating in 2010. He was entering his junior year at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Calabrese’s high school water polo coach, Tom Atwell, described Calabrese as “selfless” and an “incredible example of service to

others” in a eulogy he posted on the water polo club’s website following Calabrese’s death last year. “Willie was an incredible example to all of us. He worked harder than anyone,” Atwell wrote. “He loved to laugh. He was open-minded, non-judgmental and forgiving. He was the guy you wanted to go into battle with. He always had your back, whether it was in the water or away from the pool.” Participants can register at the event for $30, which includes a T-shirt. All proceeds will go to the San Diego Junior Lifeguard Foundation™, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting drowning prevention that Calabrese was active in.

LOANS, LOANS, LOANS… SO MANY LENDERS TO CHOOSE FROM Over the last 25 years and thousands of loans, the question always comes up for me, “why should I use you for my real estate financing?” Three items of significance; Product, Pricing and Performance… with the emphasis on Performance! It’s quite obvious that a lender needs to have a valuable product with competitive pricing. But there is another component that many people ignore and in my opinion this can be more important than the first two, performance. The ability to effectively manage and control the loan application from start to finish, with minimal challenges and maximum communication. It is extremely important that you have an individual handling your loan that has product knowledge, the ability to foresee potential challenges in advance, and the competency to move your loan through the system as quickly as possible. Having these qualities can make the difference for a smooth and successful closing versus a nightmare of an ordeal.
