Little Free Library offers all the perks of a library — without the due dates arin Donaldson and her husband, John, hope to encourage literacy, especially among children. And in their Mount Soledad neighborhood, they’re succeeding — one free book at a time. Back in February, Karin read an article in Parade magazine about a growing phenomenon called the Little Free Library. Started in 2009 in Wisconsin, the movement gives individuals the chance to become amateur librarians by installing small boxes — usually on their own property — filled with books. Visitors to the tiny libraries are encouraged to bring a book to exchange. Karin was fascinated with the idea. “I turned to my husband and said, ‘If you can build this thing, I’ll paint it,’” she said. What started out as a simple, quick project turned into several months of work (“The

challenge,” John said, “was to figure out if we could seal it properly for when it rains. We’re still waiting to see if it worked.”). Now, however, the miniature library is up and functional, standing proudly in a flowerbed in front of the Donaldson’s home on Calle Candela. The Donaldsons initially stocked the library with their own books that they were finished reading. Karin then made up fliers advertising the spot and delivered them to each of her neighbors’ mailboxes. Interest — and books — started to roll in. “We’ve received more books than have been taken at this point,” John said. SEE LIBRARY >> PG. 6

As school started for Gillispie School students and faculty on Aug. 27, everyone was likely looking forward to all the changes a new school year brings: new clothes, new classroom, new teacher, new classmates. Technology and medialiteracy teacher Laura Jean Moore, however, has something extra special to look forward to in 2013-14: a new and never-before-seen (by most of the world, at least) gadget. Moore was chosen to be among the 8,000 people nationwide who will beta test Google’s newest foray into the hyper-technological age, Google Glass. Moore found out about the Google Glass Explorer Program — which called for contest entries in the form of a 140-character composition through Twitter or Google+ — last year, and along with a few other Gillispie educators and administrators, decided to enter the contest. “[The Explorer Program] was not specifically for educators,” Moore said. “But we started brainstorming ideas of how it could enhance education, and we all sent in separate applications in the hope

of broadening our chances.” With the idea that, should one of their entries win, the Glass would be shared schoolwide, Moore and her colleagues devised their entries. Moore was told her Tweet — “I would dissolve school walls, making the worlds living within us and beyond us a two-way street between students & teachers” — was a winner in March, and that she would soon be eligible to pick up her Glass. She was so surprised, she said, she thought maybe Google had simply accepted everyone who entered. “I had started with three whole pages, just a huge list of all the ways I could use it,” she said. “I had to take all those

Changes in store for La Jolla students heading back to school With Labor Day looming, it’s back-to-school time for La Jolla students in the San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) as they turn the page on another summer and begin a new academic calendar year starting Tuesday, Sept. 3. Administrators at La Jolla High and Muirlands Middle School next door say they’re ready for students to return, noting that first day back is always a “big deal” for all concerned. “I love opening day when everyone returns to school and they come in with this excitement — that feeling like it’s a new year and there are all these wonderful experiences for them during the year where they grow,” said Pat Crowder, interim principal of 91-yearold La Jolla High.
The sentiment is the same for administrators elsewhere. “The first day of school is pretty exciting. It’s just a lot of positive energy with the endless possibilities and the potential you have for a great new year,” said Chris Hargrave, principal at Muirlands Middle, a La Jolla High feeder school at 1056 Nautilus St. Hargrave said it’s also the first day of school for parents, adding Muirlands goes out of its way to welcome them, too. “We provide coffee and there’s tons of parent volunteers who hang around and chit chat,” she said. When longtime La Jolla High principal Dana Shelburne was transferred this summer, Crowder was brought in to usher in the

new year at the school while his replacement is being selected. “We’ve reopened the position to get a broader range of applicants, so we’re probably looking now to mid-September for an appointment,” Crowder said. What’s new at La Jolla high this
year? “There are going to be three new social studies teachers,” said Crowder. “We’ve also been working on the master schedule, looking at what courses students need and then developing a schedule that works to meet those needs.”
By DAVE SCHWAB
Crowder said curricular planning for more than 1,650 students is “a mathematical challenge to keep class sizes within the limit of 36 students per class.” Also new this year at La Jolla High is a robotics course at the ninth-grade level, as well as a course for deaf instruction taught by a sign-language teacher. Hargrave said something new at the middle school this year is the “Parent Connect Program they can sign up for that allows them to access their children’s grades and attendance records.” The middle school is also heavily involved in implementing the national common core standards

Whether it’s finding new applications for atomic energy or restoring famous artwork, John F. Asmus is the master with a discerning eye. The nuclear physicist-turned-art restorer rendered a 1 ½-hour speech titled “It Is Rocket Science?” at the Torrey Pines Rotary Club on Aug. 14, detailing the scientific research he did on two painted versions of Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic “Mona Lisa.” Asmus told Rotarians he was a member of a scientific team in the 1960s with San Diego’s General Atomics that was exploring the use of atomic bombs to propel a Saturn spaceship into outer space. When that project fizzled with the advent of détente and the nuclear test ban treaty, chance — or fate — caused Asmus to redirect his energies toward exploring lasers, then an infant technology, as a possible substitute for atomic power in fueling spaceships. Asmus began exploring new applications for laser technology, which led, ultimately, to a new career for him in art restoration. “Twenty-three years ago, the heirs of the late Joseph Pulitzer asked me to examine a painting known as the ‘Isleworth Mona Lisa’ that was in the family collection of fine art,” said Asmus. “This invitation was extended in response to my 10-year study of

the varnishes and pentimenti of the Louvre Mona Lisa.” Noting Leonardo da Vinci painted two versions of his most celebrated artworks “Virgin of the Rocks,” “Virgin and Child” and “The Virgin and Child with St. Anne,” Asmus in his Rotary speech discussed continuing speculation of the possible existence of a second Mona Lisa. Perhaps the world’s most famous artwork, countless copies of the Mona Lisa have surfaced through the ages and have been advanced as the long-lost “Second Mona Lisa,” only to be dismissed after failing scientific or historical scrutiny. “My studies led to the conclusion that the intricate geometrical principles employed in the two paintings were identical, even though

individual features are different in both size and proportion,” said Asmus. “Thus it was clear that the Isleworth portrait was not a mere copy of the painting in the Louvre.” Subsequently, Asmus told Rotarians, the Isleworth painting has passed every scientific test available in art conservation science from radiocarbon dating to digitalimage age regression. “It has emerged that Leonardo painted the Isleworth piece around 1503 and the Louvre portrait around 1513,” he said. “This discovery settles a protracted debate among art historians as to whether Leonardo painted the Mona Lisa in 1503 or 1513. Both dates are correct, but for different paintings.” The Rotary Club of Torrey Pines, chartered in 1964, is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Led by current president Gordon Shurtleff, the club meets every Wednesday at 11:45 a.m. at Rock Bottom Brewery, 8980 Villa La Jolla Drive. Rotary Clubs are organizations of business and professional leaders providing humanitarian service, encouraging high ethical standards and helping to build good will and peace in the world.

UCSD symposium explores science, tech innovation’s effect on the economy If America is to remain competitive in science and technological innovation, Congress needs to be more supportive and entrepreneurs need to risk investing in the nation’s economic future. That was the message delivered at an Innovation Economy Symposium sponsored by U.S. Rep. Scott Peters and hosted at UC San Diego, which featured panelists representing local business and industry. “As a country, it is imperative that we adequately fund scientific research,” said Rep. Peters (D-52) after the Symposium. “San Diego is a growing center for innovation and technology that can set an example for how business, universities and government can work collaboratively to create an atmosphere for growth.” Held at the university’s Great Hall in front of a capacity crowd of more than 250 attendees, the symposium was hosted by UCSD Chancellor Pradeep Khosla. The keynote speaker was Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer from Maryland and panelists included Mark Cafferty, president/CEO of the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation; Jerry Sanders, former San Diego mayor and president/CEO of the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce; John Dunn, member of the board of directors at CONNECT; Magda Marquet, chair of the board
of directors at BIOCOM; and Holly Smithson, president/COO at CleanTECH San Diego. In opening remarks, Khosla said federal budget sequestration that went into effect earlier this year are “an impediment to the progress we were making” in funding research and development in the innovation economy. Innovation economics is a growing doctrine that technology, entrepreneurship and innovation are pivotal, and that the goal of economic policy should be to spur higher productivity through greater innovation. Khosla noted that the post-World War II economic boom was both education- and technology-driven, as more people went to school with the G.I. Bill, and Congress actively supported technological investment, spurring economic growth and research and development at universities. “In the last 60 years, we’ve slowly forgotten what happened with that investment,” said the chancellor. “The payoff for that investment has been priceless,” said Hoyer, the second-ranking Democrat in the House of Representatives. “We need to continue to invest in our scientists, our researchers, our engineers and mathematicians, those people that will make an extraordinary dif-

ference in the lives of my greatgrandchildren. I know what has made America great is investing in its people, its basic research and its future.” Symposium panelists responded to questions by Peters. Sanders pointed out pending immigration reform in Congress must involve building infrastructure between the U.S. and Mexico, allowing movement of manufactured products back and forth between the two nations. “We consider San Diego and Tijuana in Baja, California as one region and we need to work togeth-
er as a region competitive with the rest of the world,” Sanders said. CleanTECH’s Smithson said Congress should do what it can to promote alternative fuels and clean energy. “Investing in our infrastructure is critical to where we need to be,” she said, adding Congress needs to make sense of federal tax and regulatory policies toward start-up businesses in order to promote them and allow them to succeed. Dunn of CONNECT, which promotes innovative entrepreneurship, said, “Federal tax reform is going to be a big part” in providing incentives

for companies to invest in technological innovation. Marquet of BIOCOM, the local chapter of the life science industry’s trade association, said the “convergence between biotech and hightech” in San Diego is promising in its potential to commercialize technological innovation. “It’s a numbers game,” Marquet said, warning it’s difficult to encourage investment in research and development when “only one in 10 drugs makes it through and it takes an average of 10 years.” “It’s a huge challenge, but also a wonderful opportunity,” she said.

Legends ride waves once again for Longboard Luau Photos by DON BACLH
SURF STARS Legendary members of surfing history were invited to attend the UCSD Moores Cancer Center's 20th Annual Luau & Longboard Invitational near Scripps Pier on Aug. 18.
WAVES ON LAND AND SEA Above, modern surfing legend Rob Machado gracefully slides a wave on a Skip Frye-built surfboard. Members of the Heali'i's Polynesian Revue entertained guests at the event.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR The right thing, the right seals? When people do the right thing, we don’t always know about it. When people do the wrong thing, we often find out. What was the last wrong thing you did? Was it today? Imagine you were the mayor. What would be the right thing for you to do? Soon people will be stepping up to do what they consider to be the right thing. That evolving situation will bring out the best in some very good people. Stay tuned. Speaking of the mayor, besides Jane Reldon and the Wans, who will now be the seals’ advocate at the pool bequeathed in 1931 in a Tidelands Grant created by Ellen Browning Scripps as a trust for the benefit of the children of La Jolla? She intended for a breakwater to be built, which it was, so children could safely swim at the beach. Recently, thousands of dollars, hours and energy have gone into keeping children from their pool. Was that the right thing to do? Now that we are on the subject
of seals, are we protecting the right seals? What about Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, former Navy SEALs left behind in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012. Someone spent more than $50,000 erecting a camera to monitor the behavior of humans near seals on the beach. Why on God’s earth did our government not protect the Navy SEALs defending our civilians and ambassador Christopher Stevens in Libya? They waited hours for extraction that never came. The men weren’t even on duty. They voluntarily went to the Embassy to protect U.S. citizens because they considered it the right thing to do. Instead of doing the right thing, our U.S. government rationalized that our ambassador, SEALs and citizens should be left there unprotected. I thought doing the right thing meant no man left behind. Are we spending our time, energy and resources on the right seals? Are we doing the right thing? Nancy Gardner La Jolla

Response from neighbors, meanwhile, has been overwhelmingly positive. “I’ve received thank you notes and people seem to enjoy it,” Karin said. “It’s just fun.” Karin said the impetus for getting involved in the Little Free Library movement had a lot to do with the changing demographics of their neighborhood. When the Donaldsons moved to the area in 1974, she said, most of the residents were families with young children, and block parties and barbeques were a regular occurrence. As the population started to age, however, those things became less frequent. Now, she said, younger families are starting to pop up again, and she wanted something to offer the neighborhood’s children. Their own grandchildren, she said, “make a

Recently, the Donaldson’s library received a certificate of distinction
from the Little Free Library organization, which cited the library’s “unique design and creativity.” For the honor, the library is featured on the organization’s Pinterest page, pinterest.com/ltlfreelibrary, under the category “Libraries of Distinction.” Karin said one of the best parts of the venture has been going out to the library every day to check what has been left. The library provides a glimpse into its visitors — almost like an anonymous neighborly calling card. The books, meanwhile, aren’t the only perks. The library has provided an added social scene to the Donaldson’s cul-de-sac. “I’ve met neighbors I never knew we had,” Karin said. “I just really get a kick out of it.” The Donaldson’s Little Free Library is located at 1683 Calle Candela.

LA JOLLA TOWN COUNCIL (LJTC) recently issued an update on its Dancing with the La Jolla Stars taking place Saturday, Oct. 5 from 6 to 10 p.m. at La Jolla Torrey Pines Hilton. “The LJTC, with the assistance of Las Patronas, is using the medium of dance as a fundraiser for the La Jolla community, particularly for improvement projects so desperately needed,” said event spokeswoman Nancy Gardner. “We are also fundraising to benefit Warriors and Quiet Waters, a wounded-warrior project.” The October fundraiser’s featured hostess will be TV’s Mary Murphy from “So You Think You Can Dance,” accompanied by MC Jonathan Roberts from “Dancing with the Stars,” who will also be judging the dance competition. The list of local celebrity dancers, judges and award presenters includes: James Carter, La Jolla High football coach; Dan McAlister, county tax collector; Leonard Simpson; renowned heart doctor Paul Teirstein; Realtors Maxine Gellens and Karen Rockwell; Brandy Williams, Channel 7 newscaster; Lisa D’Angelo of Las

ideas and edit it down into 140 characters.” Essentially a wearable computer, Glass is worn as a pair of lens-less glasses with a small transparent screen situated in front of one eye. The device is designed to operate as a hands-free smartphone-like apparatus that interacts with the Internet and responds to voice commands. Google co-founder Sergey Brin has said developers’ vision for Glass was a gadget that would allow users to connect with the world without looking down at a phone or hunched over a computer. For Moore, the endless possibilities for the device’s applications were the most exciting part. “I didn’t even really know what [Glass] did, but that’s what sparked the creativity,” she said. “If there’s a takeaway from this so far, it’s that it has really sparked collaboration among teachers and what it could be used for in education.”

Patronas; Better Business Bureau CEO Sheryl Bilbray; and Sally Thornton of the Thornton Winery. The evening’s festivities will include exhibitions of young Chinese dance champions, local dance couples, wheelchair group dancing and announcements by Ron Jones, “the voice of La Jolla.” Judges will include former Chargers star and TV sportscaster Billy Ray Smith, Scott Kaplan and assistant San Diego Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman. La Jolla beautification projects, the proposed Belvedere project, La Jolla Community Center, La Jolla Christmas Parade, Warriors and Quiet Waters for Wounded Warriors, Las Patronas, Best Friends, for First Responders and the Police Historical Association will be beneficiaries of the first La Jolla Dancing With The Stars. For more information contact nancy@cmcfinance.com or call Charles Schevker at (858) 4498250.
Moore brainstormed with both teachers and students about how Glass could be useful in the classroom, and ideas flowed like water. A field trip of La Jolla could be augmented by calling up on-site historical facts. Story telling in the classroom could be given new life. Students imagined being able to instantly translate texts into another language, while administrators envisioned walking around the building and being able to call up class-specific benchmarks without having to go back to an office to dig them up. Moore hopes both longand short-term projects will abound, and students may even have a chance to individually check Glass out for a day. “It really is a schoolwide effort,” Moore said. “I asked some students last year what they would do with them, and they had all these wonderful ideas — things I hadn’t even thought of. At a minimum, this experience has sparked ideas for education in general, not just with Glass.”
Lorax statue finds its way home The famed Lorax statue, valued at $10,000 and stolen more than a year ago from the estate of famous children’s author Theodor “Dr. Seuss” Geisel, was returned recently thanks to a man in Bozeman, Mont. who came forward with information leading to its recovery. In March 2012, the 300-pound, cast-bronze statue of the Lorax, a character from a book by the late children’s author, was stolen from the La Jolla property of his widow, Audrey Geisel.

adopted by more than 45 states, which establishes national benchmark standards for reading and math to better prepare students for college or a job. “Now instead of every state being different, it will all be standardized across the nation,” Hargrave said. “The new standards are very rigorous and should allow our students to perform better, particularly compared to students from other countries. All that is very exciting and it’s very promising for our kids — and for our nation.” Scott Barnett, SDUSD board member for Subdistrict C, which covers the beaches, said there’s still some negatives with the district’s financial picture heading into the new year. “The budget shortfall is close to $90 million and we’re going to have to sell about $60 million of real estate for one-time revenues just to balance the budget this year, and the following year it could be $50 million or more,” he said. “It’s not inconceivable we’ll have to go with the

pink-slip scenario again in six months.” But Barnett said there are some encouraging economic developments, with the state economy turning around and the governor and legislature committing more money toward schools. There are also encouraging signs, he said, that SDUSD is fulfilling its educational mission. “I’m confident we’re going to have a much more accountable system in both the academic and business side of this district,” he said. “I’ve seen more change in the attitude and culture in just the 45 days since Ms.
[Cindy] Marten has been superintendent than I’ve seen in the last three years as a board member.” Barnett said the watchword along the beachfront with schools this year is “change.” “In the subdistrict, there are 40 new principals,” he said, noting in the La Jolla cluster, besides the change of principal at La Jolla High, principal Jim Solo at Torrey Pines Elementary is also being promoted and replaced. Heading into the new school year, Barnett stressed the importance of harnessing technology and using it as an educational tool. “As many as 80 percent of the kids in this district have some kind of device — iPhones, laptops, iPads, etc. — that they bring to school and we need to be flexible and integrate those devices with our school technology,” he said. “We want to make it possible for every student to bring something home with them because learning doesn’t stop when school ends.” Concerning his outlook for the new school year, Barnett concluded, “We have a lot of challenges, but there’s a lot of exciting things going on.”

Then, two years ago, Ball said she was ready for another change. She decided to change coasts, and ended up running the Cupertino YMCA in Silicon Valley before hearing about the La Jolla position. “I had heard a lot of good things about the CEO down here, and there were a lot of reasons I was excited about it,” she said. “Plus, I wanted to live in San Diego. If the same opportunity had presented itself in Idaho, I don’t know if I would have followed that.” Asked if she had ever imagined herself nurturing a 30-year career at the YMCA, Ball said, “No. Not even when I first started.
THE LA JOLLA YMCA, which opened in 1964, is growing in membership and program offerings. The facility is adding several family programs in September, with the goal of giving families more opportunities to spend time together with game nights, luaus, family exercise classes and more. Starting on Sept. 1, the branch is offering a two-week Hall Pass. Potential members can try out the branch’s programs for free through Oct. 31, and if they decide to join by the end of the two-week trial period, they will receive $50 off membership. “I think the perception of the Y for lot of people is that it’s just gym

Fast-forward to Aug. 21, 2013, when police detectives from San Diego’s Northern Division recovered the statue in thick brush off a canyon at 7500 Country Club Drive in La Jolla. They were led to the statue’s hidden resting place by a tip from the Bozeman Police Department.

The missing statue has since been returned to the Geisel estate. Commenting on the Lorax’s recovery, Geisel, 92, said she greeted the return of the Lorax “with joy.” The police investigation into the theft of the statue is ongoing and charges are pending.

Adelaide’s offers experience every gardener can enjoy Photos and text by KENDRA HARTMANN or those of us whose thumbs tend more toward the brown than the green, hardy succulents provide a way to appreciate the joys of gardening, minus the plant bloodshed. Happily, Adelaide’s La Jolla recently introduced a succulent-potting station, complete with employees on hand to assist in creating the perfect terrarium. Customers can visit the floral shop anytime during business hours and walk out
F
with an attractive succulent garden, or they can opt to attend one of Adelaide’s terrarium-building workshops. Another option is to set up a private workshop — perfect for bridal showers, ladies night out, etc. Terrariums, for as elegant as they can look, are easy to assemble and easy to maintain. Succulents can grow nearly anywhere, and as such, they’re not picky about how many or how few you want to squeeze into your terrarium. And,
should one of your terrarium residents bite the dust, the inexpensive plants are easy to replace — just drop a new one right in its spot. Adelaide’s employees can advise on placement and terrarium visuals. For more information on Adelaide’s terrarium workshops or succulent-potting station, visit www.adelaides.com or call (858) 454-0146.
STEP-BY-STEP LIVING DÉCOR Adelaide’s employees willingly help anyone who comes to visit the succulent-potting station. Customers can choose from a variety of glass planters, and the floral shop offers a wide selection of succulents to choose from. The first step is to add lava rock to the bottom of the planter, covered by some soil. At this stage, decorative accents, like rocks or colored moss can be added (they won’t be seen from above once the plants are added, but they can be seen from the glass sides). The succulents — as many or as few as you wish — are then planted, directly from their temporary plastic planters. Holes between the plants can then be filled with other decorations — colored rocks, moss, seashells and more. Adelaide’s employees will advise their guests that there is no wrong way to build the terrarium.

try to resolve the issues you may be having. The following is a guide on when you should consider leaving your present physician. • You leave his office without answers to your questions. If you leave confused or unsure on what you should be doing next, the doctor is not communicating which is his responsibility. • Your doctor ignores your ideas and questions. Physicians should be interested in what you are concerned about regarding your health. • Your doctor misdiagnosed you. Doctors can make mistakes and that isn’t necessarily a reason to find a new doctor unless his disinterest in you causes a life-threatening or catastrophic problem. • Your doctor is offended with your request for a second opinion. A doctor should be happy that you are taking an interest in your healthcare and should even suggest other physicians. • Your physician is not board certified. Board certification shows the doctor is interested in continuing to be assessed and educated in his specialty. The RN Geriatric Care Managers from Innovative Healthcare Consultants are available to help patients by discussing their concerns. They will advocate for the patient with the physician and help the patient understand their rights. View our website at www.innovativehc.com or call us at (877) 731-1442.

Non-assertion as an unconscious inhibition Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. Assertion. Is it a skill? Is it an attitude? Are we born assertive? Do we learn it as children? Can we acquire it as adults? Most of the literature on assertion
assumes that people are unassertive because they don’t know how to be assertive — they lack the skill. The assumption is that we can be taught to be assertive with practice. Most assertiveness workshops use role-play, on the premise that if you practice assertion in simulated situations, the behaviors will be transferable to real events. Of course, practice can help people discover the various ways of approaching a topic or person, but practice may
not be much help to the people who are shy or afraid to act unless they can understand the underlying reason for this difficulty. So, the question is, what makes some people too shy or too afraid to get their needs met? Studies indicate that there is an inhibiting factor that prevents some people from being assertive. Shy or fearful people do not feel entitled to express their thoughts and feelings, make requests, or refuse the requests
of others. They have low selfesteem. They do not think they are good enough, smart enough or attractive enough. They feel, therefore, that they have no rights and perceive others as not granting them any rights. Inhibition is the inability to speak out or act on your own behalf, on behalf of others or on behalf of an idea or value system. Let us go a step further. What is the basis for inhibition? It is the assumption that attempts to be assertive will meet
with a negative response and that this negative response matters. If you predict a negative response but feel it does not matter, you won’t be inhibited. But when it does matter to you, the predicted negative response can so influence your behavior that you are prevented from being assertive. There may be both rational and irrational components to

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 Hake brings a neighborhood dining concept to Prospect By KENDRA HARTMANN La Jolla’s dining scene, which never seems to stand still, welcomed the addition of The Hake Kitchen and Bar in June. Offering an eclectic menu of globally inspired dishes centered around fish — hake, after all, is a white fish in the same vein as cod or haddock — the restaurant occupies a cozy space tucked between George’s at the Cove and The Steakhouse at Azul. The newest brainchild of restaurateur Ricardo Dondisch, The Hake represents a dining concept inspired by Mexico City’s continental brasserie scene. The restaurant, Dondisch said, is intended to reflect the hyper-local feeling and tastes of the neighborhood. Dondisch, who has opened several dining ventures in Mexico’s capital, collaborated with chefs Federico Rigoletti and Roberto Craig for the seasonally inspired menu.
DINNER AND DRINKS, FAMILY STYLE The Hake offers everything from snacks to full main courses, but the dining fun comes in the shareable plates, like the sea scallops, left. The cocktail menu features creative elixirs, and even a section where frequent customers have made their mark in the form of signature drinks. Courtesy photos
Nearly everything, save for maybe a few varieties of exotic fish, is locally sourced, and Dondisch said the chefs are working closely with local growers. The menu will change somewhat frequently, but Dondisch assures patrons that if they don’t see their favorite dish, it — or something very much like it — can be re-created. Though the menu features sumptuous main courses, the real creativity — both for the diners and the chefs — comes in the shareable plates and appetizers. Not to miss are the tuna tostada, the sea scallops with cucumber, citrus, chipotle and olive oil, or the fish and shrimp tacos. The restaurant, barely two months open, has already gained a faithful following, the evidence of which can be LOCAL JOINT The Hake is tucked in a space a few steps seen on the cocktail menu.

The Hake is located at 1250 Prospect St. Suite B10. Happy hour is offered seven days a week from 3 to 7 p.m., with $4 bar bites, $2 off draft beer, $3 off cocktails and more.

with Vincent Andrunas Nearly 1,000 guests converged on the Gaines Street campus of the San Diego Humane Society recently for the organization’s 27th annual Fur Ball. About 300 were domestic pets of the canine persuasion. Amazingly, no housecats attended, apparently disinterested in going to the dogs, even if for a wonderful cause: supporting an organization that cares so much for not only dogs and cats, but also rabbits, horses, birds and reptiles.

Too bad for the finicky felines — it was a great fancy-dress party (even many dogs were in black tie — and tails), and a Fancy Feast, too! The party’s Parisian theme was reflected in the French cuisine catered by Jeffrey Strauss and his famed Pamplemousse Grille — and what cat doesn’t enjoy dressing up to dine on a little escargot from time to time? No fish on the menu (might that explain their boycott?), and no mouse mousse either, but fine foods and libations galore. Colleen Blackmore Reilly chaired for the third consecutive year. Although capacity was increased significantly this time, the popular event sold out so rapidly that no printed invitations were ever mailed. (Let that be a lesson to procrastinators!) Guests enjoyed cocktails and canapés, and a 112-item silent auction. Executive director Gary Weitz-
man, who runs the place, loves dogs more than anything else in the world, but noted that “We have some hecklers already” (referring to scattered barkers in the crowd). He announced that event honoree Paul Jolly (Petco Foundation founder/director) was ill and couldn’t attend, but foundation president Charlie Piscitello would accept on his behalf. A fine dinner of beef Bourguignon was served, after which a video showed the Humane Society’s work. Led by one individual’s $25,000 donation, paddle-raise pledges approached $100,000. A very successful live auction followed, and overall, the event netted $330,000. Clearly, people in this town really care about domestic animals. *** For somewhat personal reasons, Sam Armstrong and John Otterson founded the Luau and Long-
board Invitational fundraiser for the UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center in 1994. They chaired it themselves the first three years. Having forgotten how much work it was, they returned this year to chair its 20th anniversary. Held near Scripps Pier, it started in the morning with an invitational surfing contest featuring many legends of the sport. At midday, a festive luau under a gigantic tent attracted hundreds of surf enthusiasts, cancer researchers, physicians and community supporters. Arriving guests found Heali’i’s Polynesian Revue entertaining on stage, soon followed by chart-topping Hawaiian singer Anuhea (flown in for a special performance). Bars offered tropical cocktails, and Giuseppe Fine Catering dispensed eight delicious islandstyle entrees and four desserts from multiple buffet stations. Named for a beloved Hawaiian
surfer and breast cancer victim, the Rell Sunn “Queen of Makaha” Award annually honors a fighter in the battle against cancer for his or her unselfishness, compassion and true aloha spirit. Erstwhile surfer (and noted Nobel Prize winner) Kary Mullis was this year’s recipient, joining other famed scientists and humanitarians who were earlier honorees. Auctioneer Steve Hamann (in his 12th year at this event) sold nine major items, topped by a beautiful pair of surfboards. Steve Walden made the longboard; the shorter was done by Al Merick. They honored Al’s granddaughter, Daisy, whose young life was recently lost to stomach cancer. More sculpture than sporting goods, the board set sold for $11,000. Top bidder Garth Powis explained, “It’s a piece of artwork, and I’m sitting next to a Nobel Prize winner.”

Home improvement projects perfect for fall Fall may not quite be here yet — especially according to the thermometer — but it’s coming soon, and if you’re thinking about any home-improvement projects, now is the time to start planning. Home-improvement projects can add value to a home and do-it-yourselfers know the sweat-equity that goes into such projects can give homeowners a greater sense of pride in their homes. But no two home improvement projects are the same, and homeowners should know that certain projects are best tackled during certain times of the year. Fall is a great season to work on your house, as the weather is often at its most agreeable once the summer heat has gone — though we may have to wait a bit longer here in San Diego for that heat to break. The following are a handful of fall-friendly home-improvement projects for homeowners looking to improve their homes.
Roof repair Whether you’re repairing or replacing the roof, fall is a great time of year to dust off the ladder and get some work done for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, fall is ideal for roof work because you won’t have to be up on the roof with the summer heat bearing down on you. This can make the project move along more quickly, which is especially beneficial if you are paying laborers to work on the roof. The fewer hours workers are fixing your roof, the less you will be paying in labor costs. Local companies like La Jolla Pro Roofing or Quality Remodeling can answer all your questions about estimates and repairs.
Inside REAL ESTATE Charles Schevker & Natasha Alexander Now that the real-estate market is becoming more robust in sales, many people who are considering selling — but have not sold a home in recent years — are asking what attributes to consider when selecting an agent. This is a very legitimate concern. While the selection of a real-estate agent is often based on a variety of reasons, here are a few things that might be considered potential red flags. At first, these considerations may sound a little ridiculous. There is, however, a just basis for bringing them to your attention. (1) When you get the first chance to meet with a potential agent, ask yourself whether they resemble their website picture, business card or newspaper ad photo. Sounds silly at first, but if grandma is posting her high school yearbook photo, this may alert you to underlying integrity
In addition, fixing up the roof in the fall ensures the coming rainy season — at least as much of one as we have here — won’t find its way into your home via leaks. Addressing leaks in the fall can prevent damage to your home’s interior, which can mount up if a leaky roof is not addressed until the following spring.
Window work Even in San Diego, poorly insulated windows can allow cold air into the home. That often has a trickle-down effect on finances, forcing you to turn up the thermostat in an attempt to offset the cold air pouring into the home. Whether you need your windows replaced or simply need to patch up any leaks, a proactive approach to leaky or older windows in the fall can save you from unnecessarily high heating bills come winter. Addressing leaky windows also makes a home more comfortable for its inhabitants. Fall is the ideal time to address a home’s windows because the temperature outside tends to be pleasant, and open windows in the fall won’t make your home’s interior very hot or cold like they might if you were to tackle the project during the summer or winter.
Fixing the floors Wood flooring is a hot commodity for many homeowners. But not all flooring can be added to a home at any time of year. That’s because certain types of flooring employ adhesives that need temperatures inside the home to be within a certain range, and that range is often within 70 to 80
degrees, which makes fall a great time to install such floors. Colder temperatures can make it difficult for the flooring to dry and bond, which will prove problematic down the road. What’s more, many people entertain friends and family come late fall and into the holiday season, and it can be difficult to do so if you are busy installing new flooring. Check out some of the nearby flooring companies, like Superior Floor Designs in Encinitas or GD Crowell & Associates in Ocean Beach for all your flooring needs.
Painting projects Painting is another home improvement project that seems tailor-made for fall. A fresh coat of paint or a new color scheme around the house can give a home an entirely new look and feel. But paint can be pungent and the aromas may last if it’s applied at a time of year when it can’t dry while the windows are wide open. Paint fumes inside a home can make the home uninhabitable, but painting at a time of year like the fall, when you can keep the windows open during and after the project, can help air the home out. But interior painting isn’t the only painting project homeowners can tackle in the fall. Many exterior paints are temperaturesensitive and need the temperature outside to be above 40 degrees — not usually a problem for San Diego, but temperatures can
drop pretty low, especially in coastal areas like La Jolla. Paint that doesn’t dry properly could leave homeowners with a costly and unsightly mistake on their hands. Fall temperatures tend to be amenable to both interior and exterior painting projects. There are many local reputable painters, like TR Miller Painting & Decorating, Peek Brothers Painting, Chism Brothers Custom Painting and many more. Of course, for any home-improvement project, a good place to start is the local hardware store. Meanley and Son Ace Hardware on Girard Avenue and Hammer and Nails Ace Hardware on Turquoise Street in Pacific Beach give the added bonus of shopping local.
Red flags when listing your home for sale issues. Whether their integrity is compromised may or may not be true, but it’s worth considering if they have not first fairly represented themselves. (2) If the agent suggests a list price on your home, consider if it seems higher than expected. A high list price initially appeals to the seller’s over-inflated opinion of their homes, but it does not necessarily sell houses. The listing and selling price is, in the end, your decision and not that of the agent. It’s always good to remember that if something sounds too good to be true, it likely is. Challenge the agent to provide substantive proof of their suggested listing price. (3) Be mindful of glossy, well-written company brochures, especially those that make claims of being No. 1. Every realestate company has found a way to claim they are No. 1 at something. (4) Ask for the customized marketing plan that this agent expects to use to sell your house. This is a must! If it sounds like a passive, lame, cookie-cutter plan, with
plans that extend only so far as to post your house on the MLS (multiple listing service), Internet and advertising in local newspapers, the agent might pass you off to an assistant while they rush out to get the next listing contract signed. The plan should be actionable, customized for your house and executed to maximize the exposure of your house to as many potential buyers in as little time as possible. (5) Listen carefully to the conversation that you are having with the agent. Does the agent ask questions to learn and understand what is important to you, or are they flattering you with delusions? (6) If you hear the words, “I will give all of this information to my assistant tomorrow and they will get the ball rolling as soon as possible,” you might question the availability and responsiveness of that agent to your future needs. (7) If an agent mentions he or she has a “Rolodex” of buyers interested to buy a house “like yours,” be sure to ask things like: how many buyers, what areas do they
live in, are they pre-approved buyers, are they ready to buy now, etc., and then listen for any hesitation in the agent’s answers. (8) Ever heard of the phrase “to delight your clients, always under-promise and over-deliver?” Stop and listen, and then determine for yourself whether the agent appears to be promising anything and everything just to get your listing. If you are considering the sale of your home, be sure to exercise common sense, good judgment and listen to your intuition. Consider those points and you will have a better chance of selecting the right realestate agent for you.
If you have any questions about real estate in San Diego, send your inquiries to Charles Schevker or Natasha Alexander at Cschevker@san.rr.com. They will respond directly to you, and those questions that have a broader public appeal will be published along with our next column in La Jolla Today.

Elimination of GSEs could be costly for La Jollans Political agendas are stirring again and the current administration and Congress are providing plans for eliminating government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) as we currently know them — Freddie KURT Mac and Fannie WANNEBO Mae — to provide opportunity for private enterprises to take over. This could prove to be extremely costly and detrimental to areas like La Jolla, because consumers would need to shoulder additional costs and higher interest rates. La Jolla residents would really feel the hit since area property values continue among the highest in the nation. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac buy mortgages from lenders and package them into securities on which they guarantee principal and interest payments. To determine the effects of ending these GSEs, it important to go back into history and learn more about where they came from. They were created in the 1930s as part of FDR’s New Deal after the Great Depression. GSEs created a secondary market to buy home loans from smaller banks with cheap
capital, thus freeing up more money for these same banks to originate more home loans at lower interest rates. In 1968, Fannie Mae became a privately held company, but maintained a special relationship with the government so it could borrow money cheaply and avoid certain regulations such as capital available versus debt on the books. Today, these accounting practices are under investigation. In the 1990s, amid political pressure and free-market competition that had aggressive underwriting, the GSEs eventually started to lower their lending guideline standards to offer affordable housing in high-priced areas like La Jolla. They also began issuing loans to less credit-worthy people. When the market crashed in the late 2000s, the GSEs were at risk of collapsing and bringing down the entire economy with it. So in 2008, the government stepped in, placing the GSEs once again under government’s control. Since then, the GSEs have acted as they had before, buying mortgages and freeing up capital for the private banks, and they have done so responsibly. Moving forward, all signs indicate that this could be a huge revenue-generating resource for the government
and help in reducing the federal deficit. For example, because GSEs can buy new loans with low interest rates, they can borrow money at a cheap rate from the U.S. Treasury. No private firm or investor can obtain capital as low as the GSEs. Private firms and investors are typically only interested in obtaining loans that provide for a greater rate of return. The result is clear: should GSEs become privatized, consumers would have to pay more to borrow, especially in areas in La Jolla where many loans are jumbo loans that carry more inherent risk due to the high price points. Typically jumbo loans trend at .75 percent to 1.5 percent higher than normal loans due to the risk. It’s also important to recognize that private investors want to make money today and do not always want to loan out large sums of money to smaller properties like they would with an area like La Jolla. Therefore, they may not be enticed to invest for the long term in traditional 30-year loans. Typically, investor’s want to invest smaller amounts of money on a lot of properties to spread out the risk. To lend in high-priced and custom-built areas like La Jolla, they would
By KURT WANNEBO
want much higher rate of returns. Should GSEs disappear, we might see the end of long-term loans or, at least, higher rates to obtain them. Ultimately, this would drive down high-end home prices. In addition, dismantling the GSEs during the time that quantitative easing was to occur would be a double whammy for interest rates and hit the La Jolla housing market and local economy hard. While raising the interest rates is inevitable, too much too soon could send shockwaves through areas with concentrated high-end homes and high net worth clients. One solution that could allay the challenges of privatizing GSEs and, at the same time, appease the political agenda, would be for a large entity to take over the GSEs. It shouldn’t be hard to find a buyer, considering that GSEs are now reporting quarterly earnings in the billions of dollars. This would keep intact a system that has been in place for over 70 years and has worked well when managed responsibly and not at the whim of political agenda. — Kurt Wannebo is the CEO for San Diego Real Estate & Investments and an expert in the local residential real-estate market.

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. For more information contact your local home lending specialist, Scott Boaman at (858) 337-4435 or email him at scott.boaman@citi.com nc. Citibank, N.A. Member FDIC.

ASSERTION >> CONT. FROM PG. 11
inhibition. You may be correct or incorrect in assuming that a particular assertive stance on your part will result in negative consequences for you. There are a couple of ways to check reality. One is to ask others. If no one else would be inhibited in your place, then you can question the reality of your predictions of a negative response. The other is to recall the ways your parents controlled you as a child. Did they show their disapproval by anger, by tears, by indifference? Does the potential of others’ anger, tears or indifference still control your behavior now? When you feel inhibited from being assertive, visualize the type of negative response you predict your behavior will elicit. Does it remind you of an earlier parental reaction? If you had a father who controlled you by anger or even just by its threat, do you predict an angry response to your attempts at meeting your needs? If your mother cried when you misbehaved, is what you fear most hurting people?

to be inhibited by this person who is not my parent?” Chances are that similar attributes in a variety of people will trigger this inhibition in you. I have found that very cold, formal men remind me of my father, who was always quite distant, and therefore others’ potential withdrawal can still control my behavior. Once you have identified the pattern, chances are that whenever you meet it in others, it can still influence you, even though you are an adult. The only way to deal with non-assertion is to keep looking for the pattern so that once you have identified it, you are making your unconscious reactions conscious and therefore more under your control. — Natasha Josefowitz taught the first course in the U.S. on women in management and is the author of 19 books.

Since the inhibitor factor in assertion is often the displacement of early childhood socialization patterns into the present, determine which people most inhibit your assertiveness and try to identify what it is in them that reminds you of a parent or teacher. It may be a look, a walk, a voice, an expression, an attitude. You are attributing to a boss, a colleague, a subordinate or a friend a motive that once belonged to an authority figure that used to inhibit you. Once you are able to identify this element, ask yourself, “Do I choose

What is the basis for inhibition? It is the assumption that attempts to be assertive will meet with a negative response and that this negative response matters. If you predict a negative response but feel it does not matter, you won’t be inhibited. But when it does matter to you, the predicted negative response can so influence your behavior that you are prevented from being assertive.
