5-year ban on Children's Pool access during pupping season wins approval By DAVE SCHWAB
TWO OUTTA THREE AIN'T BAD Here's the short explanation: when a full or new moon makes its closest approach to Earth, it's called a supermoon. And the one on Aug. 10 (pictured), reportedly the brightest of the year, didn't disappoint local skywatchers. In fact, neither did the one last month; and if you liked those two, you might also like the third, scheduled to happen Sept. 9.

Overriding objections by beach-access proponents, the California Coastal Commission Aug. 14 unanimously endorsed a five-year ban on people accessing La Jolla’s Children’s Pool from Dec. 15 to May 15 to afford greater protection to harbor seals during their pupping season. It was the latest twist in a series of backand-forth developments over several years defining the relationship between seals and human recreational users — swimmers, fisherman, divers, et cetera — who access the ocean via the protected pocket beach. Paid for by La Jolla philanthropist Ellen Browning Scripps and created as a safe wading area for children, the pool was deeded to the city in 1931. During the 1990s, the manmade breakwater became increasingly overrun by seals, who turned the pool into a haul-out site and a rookery. In 1997, the pool was closed to human contact by the county health department

because of high bacteria counts from seal waste buildup in its shallow waters. Signs there continue to warn that water contact could pose a serious health risk. In rendering their decision, coastal commissioners argued the city of San Diego’s shared-use policy allowing both species year-round access at the pool has failed. “It hasn’t worked out in terms of what

At a special meeting called during its August recess, San Diego City Council voted 6-2 on Aug. 18 to override Mayor Kevin Faulconer's veto of the city's hourly minimum wage ordinance, which provides incrementally increased pay over three years and five days' earned sick leave. The law is aimed mostly at helping low-paid restaurant and retail workers. The ordinance sets San Diego's minimum wage at $11.50 per hour, implemented over three years, to increase to $9.75 in January of 2015, $10.50 in January of 2016 and $11.50 in January of 2017. Wages will then be modified to keep pace with the Consumer Price Index beginning in January of 2019. The ordinance passed City Council along strict party lines, 6-3, on June 14 before being vetoed by Faulconer on Aug. 8. The city charter allows council to reconsider any resolution or ordinance the mayor vetoes and can over-
ride the mayor's veto with six votes. Republican Councilmember Lorie Zapf did not vote on the override. San Diego is among several cities across the country joining a push by Democrats and labor groups to increase the minimum wage at the local and state level as Republicans in Congress oppose raising the current federal wage floor of $7.25 an hour. The California minimum wage is $9 per hour and will climb to $10 next July. The San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce has promised to try to roll back the wage increase through a referendum. It has about 30 days to gather the 34,000 signatures needed to place its challenge on the ballot. Council President Todd Gloria said a referendum wouldn’t take place until the June 2016 primary election, meaning city officials and residents would debate the issue for nearly two years.

News La Jolla merchants group sets 2014 meeting, elections
Motion on revenue producers is defeated, refuels 6-year-old debate of LJVMA meeting A proposal to explore revenue-producing alternatives, including the installation of parking meters in the Village, resurrected a simmering community debate at La Jolla Village Merchants Association’s (LJVMA’s) August meeting. Board member Nancy Warwick was defeated in her attempt to amend a motion brought by board colleague and attorney Mark Krasner to research various ways to increase the revenues of LJVMA. Her attempt was defeated 5-4, with LJVMA chair CA Marengo voting to break the tie. “I would exclude discussion of paid, onstreet parking,” said Warwick, noting that her reasons included “a lack of community support for it in the Village only six years ago and the negative impact it would have on some businesses like restaurants or hotels that rely on valet (parking).” Krasner said tax-funded mechanisms he’d like to see include a Maintenance Assessment District (MAD), a Property Based Improvement District (PBID) or any other revenue stream “that can further our purposes in a much stronger manner.” “I think we’ll chase away customers with our general lack of public transportation,”

warned Warwick. Noting he was neutral on the paid parking issue, board member Trenton Bonner pointed out that “business is changing in our community, and we should always keep an open mind, and parking is something that we should consider.” Past LJVMA president Phil Coller said he would frown on “any revenue-generation plan that will produce animosity between the residents and the businesses.” Board member James Niebling noted that Krasner’s motion was merely to initiate study on revenue-generating ideas, not take action on them. “It’s a new day,” he said. “We should leave no stone unturned. We should keep the (paid-parking) option on the table.” First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner said city policy now requires a 45-55 split between community and city on paidparking revenues. “The city gets the bigger portion,” she said. “I think we need to look at this (revenue generation),” said Marengo, noting he wasn’t endorsing paid parking, merely advocating its study. “If anything, it might confirm what happened six years ago and we’ll move on,” Marengo said.

News NEWSBRIEFS >> Sentencing delayed in synagogue fraud The sentencing of the former La Jolla Beth El Synagogue director who pleaded guilty to mail fraud has been delayed from Aug. 22 to Sept. 19 in federal court. Attorneys on both sides requested a delay in the sentencing of Eric Levine from U.S. District Court Judge Dana Sabraw but didn’t specify a reason in court documents. Levine, 36, faces up to 20 years in federal prison, but both sides have agreed that more restitution could reduce his sentence. Levine remains free on $25,000 bond and has surrendered his passport. Levine pleaded guilty to mail fraud in a scheme where the synagogue unknowingly paid nearly $395,000 on his personal credit cards, travel expenses, jewelry purchases and membership dues from a fitness club, according to court records. Levine served as Beth El executive director from July of 2007 to December of 2013, overseeing the synagogue's budget of $2 million. — Neal Putnam I-5 expansion from La Jolla to Oceanside OKd A plan to expand I-5 from La Jolla to Oceanside was approved unanimously by the California Coastal Commission on Aug. 13, paving the way for the protracted plan's implementation. The $6.5 billion North Coast Corridor program will involve six cities and 27 miles between La Jolla and Oceanside and feature freeway, rail and environmental improvements by the state Department of Transportation. San Diego County Supervisor Greg Cox, a coastal commissioner, called the plan a remarkable example of governments working together, even as the project faces obstacles. The freeway expansion portion is the subject of a lawsuit by those who favor coastal transit improvements as the plan's primary objective. Caltrans, which expects to start the project next year, said the I-5 widening is needed amid corridor traffic growth. The project is expected to take as long at 40 years to complete. — Staff and contribution Public service is ordered in firearm discharge case A La Jolla man who pleaded guilty to discharging a firearm in a grossly negligent manner has been ordered to perform 10 days of public service work on condition of three years' probation. A suspended 180-day jail term was given to Alan Deller, 64, who won’t have to serve any jail time unless he violates probation terms. He was also ordered on August 6 to complete an outpatient alcohol treatment program. No one was injured in the Oct. 18, 2013 incident, in which
Deller fired two shots in his condominium, in the 3200 block of Via Marin. Both bullets went through his bedroom wall into a neighbor’s unit. One bullet lodged two feet above the bed of a neighbor’s daughter. Deller claimed he did not fire the weapon deliberately and was checking the gun to see if the cartridges were jammed. Deller also claimed he began drinking alcohol only after the gun discharged and acknowledged he was drunk when police showed up. Court records reflect that when police arrested Deller, his blood/alcohol level was at 0.19, twice the legal limit. “Alcohol is a major factor in this,” said Deputy District Attorney Melissa Vasel when she asked for certain alcohol conditions with the probation order. Deller was elected president of the Woodlands South Homeowners Association on Dec. 10, 2013, two months after the incident. San Diego Superior Court Judge Timothy Walsh ordered Deller to pay $400 in restitution to the neighbor, Daeyong Sim. Deller has never met the neighbors who occupy the con-
dominium next door. Geller noted that Deller is banned from contacting the neighbors under conditions of $50,000 bond. Walsh fined Deller $1,300 and gave him credit for serving nine days in jail after his arrest. Deller pleaded guilty June 11 to one count of negligently discharging a firearm. A second charge was dropped. — Neal Putnam Former Bishop's football player held in Cal Poly thefts A former Bishop’s School football player has been arrested in San Luis Obispo for his alleged involvement in a fraternity house robbery.

Music Society raises hall funds, names center La Jolla Music Society has raised $50 million to build a new concert hall, which will be named the Conrad Prebys Performing Arts Center and open in time for the society’s 50th season. The donations were noted in published reports and announced to patrons attending SummerFest concerts over the weekend of Aug. 8. Christopher Beach, society president and artistic director, told patrons that the year-long “silent phase” of the campaign was com-
plete and that the society is launching a public effort to raise additional funds for an endowment to support programming at the new center. Construction of the complex at 7600 Fay Avenue in La Jolla is expected to begin in late 2016 and be completed by October of 2017. The society purchased the nearly 31,000-square-foot parcel in May. Epstein Joslin Architects, of Cambridge, Mass., will design the center. The published reports said 11
donors accounted for the $50 million, with lead gifts from Prebys, Joan and Irwin Jacobs, Raffaella and John Belanich and Brenda Baker and Steve Baum. The society, founded in 1941 as the Musical Arts Society of La Jolla. presents touring artists at venues throughout the community, primarily at Sherwood Auditorium on the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego's La Jolla campus.

News Kashi snack foods firm to return to La Jolla A popular snack foods and cereal company that got its start in San Diego is returning home. Kashi, owned by food giant Kellogg, will move back to La Jolla after spending the past year in Michigan. Kellogg CEO John Bryant told investors on Aug. 1 that Kashi is not performing as well as the company would have liked. He said the company has been less focused on progressive nutrition and that the lower distribution has meant the company must make dramatic changes. David Denholm, Kashi's former CEO, will retake the company's helm. Kellogg has not released a
timetable for when Kashi will move back to the area. Kashi, founded in La Jolla in 1984, was purchased by Kellogg in 2000 and moved to Battle Creek, Mich., Kellogg's headquarters, in 2013. It specializes in energy bars, crackers, breakfast cereals and frozen entreés. In 2012, a grocer in Rhode Island reportedly found that Kashi used genetically engineered ingredients even as it used the term “natural” to describe its foods and pulled its products from its shelves. Kashi's general manager responded that the federal food and drug Administration has not yet regulated the term “natural.”
UCSD group finds insights into ailment-fighting drugs A group of UCSD researchers has found that anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin, naproxen (marketed as Aleve) and ibuprofen (known as Advil and Motrin) work by inhibiting or killing a key component in production of hormonelike compounds linked to a variety of ailments, from headaches and arthritis to menstrual cramps and wound infection. In a recent paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the researchers conclude that aspirin has a second effect: Not only does it kill the component cyclooxygenase, thus preventing production of the causes of inflammation and pain; it also makes the enzyme generate another compound that
hastens the end of inflammation, returning the affected cells to health. Aspirin causes the cyclooxygenase to make a small amount of a related product called 15-HETE, said senior author Edward Dennis. During infection and inflammation, the 15-HETE can be converted by a second enzyme into lipoxin, which is known to help reverse inflammation and cause its resolution.” The findings, Dennis said, may open possibilities for anti-inflammatory therapies by developing new drugs that curb inflammation. “If we can find ways to promote more resolution of inflammation,” Dennis said, “we can promote health.”
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Coastal Commission is praised for decision on Children’s Pool I am so thrilled and happy about the decision handed down by the California Coastal Commission as to the Children's Pool in La Jolla (see story on page 1)! For the first time, we have it in black and white: The pupping seals get the beach to themselves for five months [midDecember to mid-May]. For seven months, the children and swimmers and divers get the pool. The great thing that has happened is the Coastal Commission has asked the city to find out how to clean the beach and water so it is safe for the people's turn. We as taxpayers, back in 1989, paid for a study to see
what it would cost to open the gates in the wall, which have not been opened since the pool opened in 1932. The reason for the gates is to let the ocean water clean the sand and get rid of any build-up, so now the beach can be cleaned between the seal time and people time. We have a study and a plan; now, we just have to carry it out. We as a community have asked the city for this for over 24 years; finally, the city has been told to do it. This is great for the seals and the people. Finally! Melinda Merryweather La Jolla

Rare brain cells may help influence memory, Salk says New research at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies shows that little-known brain cells known as astrocytes may be major players that help control cognitive function critical to some forms of memory. In a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Salk researchers report a new, unexpected strategy to turn down certain brain waves by disabling astrocytes, or certain central nervous system cells. In the process, the team showed that astrocytes, and the waves they help shape, are critical for some forms of memory. “This is what could be called a smoking gun,” says co-author Terrence Sejnowski, head of Salk's Computational Neurobiology Laboratory. “There are hundreds of papers linking [the waves, called] gamma oscillations with attention and memory, but they are all correlational. This is the first time we have been able to do a causal experiment, where we selectively block gamma oscillations and show

Robin Williams: La Jolla, like everywhere else, held a special place in his heart Comedy Store). His introduction to the group came unceremoniously enough at an Escape from Alcatraz triathlon in San Francisco, where he met triathlete Scott Tinley and his wife Virginia, now CAF executive director. “Absolutely,” he reportedly said amid the Tinleys' invitation to the La Jolla event, where he would meet and participate with then 8-yearold Rudy Garcia-Tolson, a double above-knee amputee. Garcia-Tolson swam his portion of the event; Scott Tinley ran, and Williams biked. “One thing Robin always said,” according to CAF marketing manager Jenna Novotny, “was that Rudy was not a challenged athlete. 'Rudy,' he said, 'will kick anybody's butt out there. Now, a 300-pound man trying to squeeze into Spandex: That's a challenged athlete!' “That was Robin's personality,” Novotny explained. “A lot of times, people don't know how to react to someone with a disability. But he put everyone at comfort and everyone at ease. He was there to make everyone laugh, and he was as inspired by the athletes and bystanders as everyone at the event was of him.” Williams would later invite comics Will Ferrell and Jim Carrey to the event, thus breaking out some star-power PR. “He was very important,” Novotny said, “in bringing light to our organization and what we do.” The Cove and La Jolla, Novotny added, are in no danger of losing the event, notable in this era of budget cuts and the fractiousness that can accompany them (La Jolla came within hours of postponing its fireworks display this year amid just such a flap). This year's gathering is set for Sunday, Oct. 19,
By MARTIN JONES WESTLIN Everything everybody's said and continues to say about the late Robin Williams is true: He was a comedic genius, and his performance acumen is possibly unmatched in the annals of modern entertainment. Arguably, the late Jonathan Winters could only scratch his head at the news that he was Williams' idol – while Winters' cacophonous routines were hilarious, Williams took 'em into his corner of outer space, turning thousands of itinerant characters on a dime and challenging audiences to keep up, often within an inch of their lives. Too, too seriously damn funny. Williams, 63, died Aug. 11 in his Marin County home with a belt around his neck and a colossal open sore on his heart. Acquaintances had said he was in a funk about what appeared to be a sagging career (TV series canceled, movie straight to DVD); His wife has reported that he was in the begining stages of Parkinson’s disease – and the turns of events could well have weighed into the depths of his obsessions. The unimaginable death of a centuries-old soul like his can't help but have touched millions around the world, notably those at the San Diego Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF), which supports the physically compromised in their pursuit of active lifestyles through physical fitness and athletics. The group's message wasn't lost on the philanthropic Williams, an inveterate cyclist who attended every one of the CAF's triathlon challenges at La Jolla Cove between 1998 and 2008 (and who many years before had cut some of his comedic teeth at La Jolla's The

with Irvine-based Aspen Medical Products its sponsor. If the unthinkable were to happen, Williams would likely have scrambled for his life to save the day – but not as a token celeb whose millions could conceivably evaporate the red tape. His colossal performance style betrays a man who felt life's twists and turns with every fiber of his being, and the triathlon was surely worth the effort. The public mind
is that much more aware of itself for having embraced his essence, and La Jolla is that much better a community for having experienced his decency. Godspeed, Robin, and thanks for everything.
GUEST COMMENTARY
The effects of suicide know no boundaries The recent death of comedian Robin Williams brought it all back in a rush: the tremendous pain of loss. The questions: Why did this happen? What could I have done differently? Was it someone’s fault? Will it happen again? Will people pull away from us knowing this is the third suicide in our immediate family? The first anniversary of the most recent loss, that of my youngest brother, is coming up, and already returning is the searing memory of receiving that dreadful call in the mid-
dle of the night. Each death was unexpected; all were violent; all were different. None really became “real” until we attended the funerals. The memories and questions that haunt us will never go away. When someone commits suicide, most of the focus is upon the one who has died: What was the cause? Was there something “wrong” with that person? Who was “responsible?” We talk superficially about the survivors. Eventually, the talk fades. Those who grieve are forever haunted by

unanswered questions: How could this have been prevented? What more could have been done? What did we do wrong? We miss loved ones who have left us and feel cheated out of not having had enough time with them. Particularly when the deaths occur “out of order,” years before they might normally have been expected, the survivors are hit hard: What’s wrong with that family? Should our children be allowed to play with their children? Is suicide genetic? I can’t begin to express how difficult life can be for those left behind, even for ones who seek counseling. Some families come together briefly then break apart as they begin to point

fingers. Others turn to chemicals as they try to absorb the loss. Still others have difficult overcoming the regret they feel for missed opportunities. Suicide knows no social, economic, educational or ethnic boundaries. Even for survivors who on the surface seem to have recovered and moved on, life will never be the same. Remember this as you spend time with friends and neighbors who have experienced such profound and complicated loss. They are forever changed. You can make a difference. Cindy Goodman La Jolla

Hydroplanes race at breakneck speed during a previous San Diego Bayfair event. This year’s festival will be Sept. 12-14.

Race officials revving up for San Diego Bayfair Festival in September on Mission Bay shoreline BY JOHNNY MCDONALD San Diego Bayfair officials report it will take a workforce of 700 volunteers to put on this year’s popular hydroplane boat racing and entertainment festival, set for Friday, Sept. 12, through Sunday, Sept. 14. “They cover everything from security assistance to parking, securing properly supplies or manning patrol boats to close off the bay,” said race director Bob Davies. “Starting in June, we scheduled monthly meetings, with the fine tuner set for Sept. 4.” Over the 50 years the event has been staged, Davies said it has become a tradition for families. “We’re entering the third generation of volunteers,” Davies said. The premier events, of course, are the rooster-tail, spraying, turbine-powered unlimited hydroplanes, celebrating a half-century of competition on the 2 ½mile Bill Muncey course on Mission Bay. The races will be nationally televised. However, things have become a three-
ring circus since the semiprofessional smaller boats have been moved to Crown Point. Meanwhile, the Grand Prix West piston-powered hydros will perform at Ski Beach. There will be no drag-racing boats this year. “It’s a family festival as well, so there will be more entertainment and things for the kids to do,” said board member Jim Kidrick, who has been involved with the event for eight years. “Bayfair needs as many as 30 bands to play professional stages on East Vacation Island and Crown Point as well as an intimate stage on Fiesta Island,” said Dave Rodger, entertainment chairman. Bands will perform 90-minute sets over the weekend. “Bayfair offers all genres of music, but bands should be mindful it’s a family event,” he said. “It’s an excellent opportunity for area bands to gain exposure and get new followers.” Bayfair is a nonprofit festival orga-
nized and run by volunteers. An eightmember board of governors directs and oversees the army of volunteers to stage the three-day festival. An estimated 500 RV owners, friends and family are offered the opportunity to stay in Mission Bay Park for the weekend. “We want the families to come out and enjoy the vendors, just like they do at the Del Mar Fair,” said Davies, who has been a board member for 15 years. He said the event was scheduled in September so hotels can have one more shot for summer business. A VisionQuest survey taken two years ago revealed that Bayfair was responsible for generating 13,600 room nights and in excess of $1.7 million in hotel revenue. Over the years, it has been estimated that five million people have attended the festival. For more information, visit sandiegobayfair.org.

several tantalizing Hawaiian twists on its menu. “We have a good beach-restaurant feel here,” says Brendan Huffman, who along with partner Mina Desiderio also co-owns Wonderland Ocean Pub in Ocean Beach. Both are experienced restaurateurs; Huffman operates Bootlegger Plates & Pours in East Village, and Desiderio founded the original Local several years ago at Fourth Avenue and Broadway. Redesigns to the 7,000-square-foot structure have included new exterior siding, the addition of an elevator and solar-heated flooring installed on the upstairs patio for cooler nights, an uncommon amenity in San Diego restaurants. In keeping with the islander theme, fresh flora was added throughout. The billiard tables that once occupied the upper level are gone. They’ve been replaced by more seating options, including a raised “community booth area” that holds up to 20 people. “The synergy of the two Locals is that they have the same attitude. Both are fun and edgy, with good local craft beer and incredible food,” says Huffman. “But downtown caters to more of a lunch crowd, while PB attracts a big nightlife crowd as well as being a restaurant.” Visitors to the Pacific Beach location can also expect a decidedly different menu, with some of the dishes

Meats such as huli huli chicken, kahlua pork, brisket and Asian-style short ribs are put through a slow cooker overnight. They appear in plate form, sandwiches and tacos. “We’re going through quite a bit of them,” says Huffman. Their sidekicks and condiments include sticky rice, fresh macaroni salad, spicy coleslaw, pineapple sweet and sour sauce and other elements that beckon to tropical cuisine. There is also coconut calamari, ahi poke with macadamia nuts and The Local’s top-selling lobster tacos, which carry over from downtown. The tacos are made with char-grilled flour tortillas encasing three ounces of fresh tail meat from lobsters trawled along the West Coast. Discounts on various tacos and drinks are offered from 5 to 10 p.m. on “tiki Tuesdays,” when musician Ben Benevente aptly provides patrons with live Hawaiian compositions. On other nights of the week, a host of popular DJs raise the beat with contemporary music. Complementing an ambitious craft beer list, which encompasses everything from IPAs and Belgians to lagers and pale ales, are cocktails that remind visitors of their proximity to the sands, such as Don the Beachcomber’s Zombie, which mixes pas-

The drink selection extends also to swooped-up Trader Vic-style mai tais accented with cloves and fresh ginger as well as PB mules, blackberry daiquiris and “sand pail punch.” Although The Local’s look and flavor is noticeably different from its long-established predecessor, Huffman says that devoted patrons of Nick’s regularly drop in. “We’re still fresh and trying to get the word out that we here.

Sponsored by Fiesta de Reyes, the free event features a different theme each Saturday such as: Days of the Vaqueros, Women of the West, Soldiers and Citizens, TwainFest and Taste of the Past. Attendees will enjoy afternoons filled with activities that reflect life in early San Diego and celebrate the

All activities are geared toward children and adults of all ages. “This year’s Stagecoach Days will be the best in our park’s history,” stated Event Coordinator Greg Giacopuzzi. “We have added many more family friendly activities to the event this year so visitors will get a true taste of what Old Town was like in the 1800s.” This year also marks the 150th anniversary of California State Parks.

be added to Stagecoach Days. The Stagecoach Days schedule is as follows: August 16 – “TwainFest” – This wildly popular festival celebrates literacy and the literary works of Mark Twain and other 19th-century authors. Excerpts from famous works will be presented by costumed San Diego actors at a variety of park venues throughout the day.

Today, California State Parks will present demonstrations and
activities that were part of the lives of these people on the move. Old Town San Diego State Historic Park, with the support of the Boosters of Old Town and donation from Fiesta de Reyes, is proud to offer these free activities for adults and children of all ages. The park is located on San Diego Avenue and Twiggs Street in San Diego, and is conveniently located next to the Old Town Transit Center, with Coaster, Trolley, and MTS bus service.

Guests and their humans dined and danced under starry skies at the society's Gaines Street facility and yielded the images below and right; donations for this year so far total nearly $600,000. The San Diego Humane Society and SPCA was organized on March 10, 1880 and is the oldest and largest humane society in San Diego County.

Happy Hour(s) at The Patio So often, restaurants limit ‘happy hour’ to the late afternoon, making it hard for those with certain schedules to enjoy drink and food specials on a regular basis. The Patio on Lamont Street, however, offers happy hour during the week from 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. and 3 p.m. - 6 p.m. on the weekends. During happy hour, guests can enjoy half off draft beer, cool cocktails, and wines by the glass. Also, our happy hour bites menu is available everyday from 3 p.m. - 6 p.m. Chef Andre Fuentes recently added some new items to the menu, including roasted beet bruschetta, chef's selection of sausage plate, and smoked chicken sliders. They're great for sampling and sharing, too! Happy hour is also the perfect time to host your next group outing. The loft area is a cozy and intimate space for rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, business meetings, and more. Let us help you plan an unforgettable event at The Patio. Call 858-412-4648 or visit ThePatioRestaurants.com for more information.

we’ve seen in the videos and the testimony (of seal harassment) we’ve heard,” said Commissioner Dayna Bochco. “If more people acted reasonably, we wouldn’t be here again today.” Noting she couldn’t imagine Ms. Scripps being happy with seal harassment at her pool, Bochco said “this isn’t a permanent closure of a beach, just five months out of the year.” Bochco added some might misinterpret the commission’s mission to promote “maximum” beach access as promoting “absolute” access. “We are not mandated to do that,” Bochco said. “We’re allowed to control the access to the beach in a reasonable way.” District 1 City Councilwoman and council president pro tem Sherri Lightner spoke out against Children’s Pool's seasonal closure. “The community has never supported a seasonal beach closure and is not in favor of this one,” said Lightner. “It’s premature to permanently close this beach.” Pointing out seals are not “threatened or endangered,” Lightner characterized seasonally closing Children’s Pool as “a very dangerous and unusual precedent.” Lightner said the ideal solution “is one of shared use, with no

21 days after exposure, though 8 to 10 days is most likely. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says it suspected or confirmed 2,240 cases as of Aug. 19, with 1,229 fatalities. An Ebola virus disease epidemic is ongoing in West Africa, notably Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone. It is the most severe Ebola outbreak in terms of the number of human cases and fatalities since the discovery of the virus in 1976. Typical outbreaks are reportedly 90 percent fatal; the current outbreak has resulted in a fatality rate of 60 percent. Missionaries Kent Brantly and Nancy Writebol, the only two Americans known to be stricken with Ebola, were reportedly infected while caring for Ebola patients in Monrovia. Brantly was released from Emory University Hospital in Atlanta on Aug. 21 after a course of experimental drug treatment; Writebol was released from the facility on Aug. 19. Mapp Biopharmaceutical, a Sorrento Valley biotech firm, manufactures ZMapp, the experimental drug administered to the two. Shipments of the drug and an untested vaccine are reportedly on the way to Liberia. Earlier this year, Mapp became part of a consortium working to create a “cocktail” of drugs to treat Ebola. The group of 15 institutions, lead by the Scripps Research Institute, was funded for $28 million over five years by the National Institutes of Health.
unnecessary restrictions placed on the beach or ocean users.” Describing the proposed seasonal beach closure as “regulation overkill,” and declaring that arguments in favor of beach closure were not “fact-based” or “data-driven,” Lightner concluded, “There’s been no consideration for what long-term, unintended consequences might result from this proposal.” Spokespersons for groups on both sides of the issue offered testimony for and against seasonal beach closure. “A civilization is judged by the way it treats its animals,” testified former county Supervisor Pam Slater-Price, who previously represented La Jolla, quoting Indian nationalist leader Mohandas Gandhi. She added a fivemonth restriction on human contact at the beach “isn’t going to be too impactful, reduces seal harassment and maintains the viewing experience for locals and tourists alike.” Others saw the seasonal beach closure as an infringement on rights guaranteed by the state Constitution. “The city’s been a bad steward for the Children’s Pool, breaking their promises to the people of San Diego in letting this pool go to ruin,” argued Ken Hunrichs of Friends of the Children’s Pool. “A (public) trust and a coastal resource has been ruined in the name of so-called wildlife protection.”
Erica Ollman Saphire, professor of the Department of Immunology and Microbial Science at Scripps, said using an experimental drug to fight Ebola may have been the only logical choice. “You might be willing to take a chance on putting it into people infected with the Ebola virus if it has some minor side effects,” she said, adding, “What else are you going to do if they are infected with the Ebola virus other than give them fluids and Tylenol and hope for the best?” Ollman Saphire said an even broader ethical question with treating Ebola victims with experimental drugs might be: Whom do you choose to give them to if there’s not enough to go around? Ollman Saphire, who is researching the role proteins play in the fight against Ebola, said Mapp's antibody cocktail “works well in animal models.” Noting Ebola is still “not under control,” she said she is nonetheless encouraged that the battle against it will succeed. She noted that, unlike HIV, the Ebola virus does not remain in the victim's genome after infection. She also said Ebola symptoms appear much more rapidly than those of HIV, which can incubate for 10 to 20 years. “Once you’re cleared of the disease,” she said,” you’re clean.” “There may be some good news here in the long term,” Kalichman concluded, “that [ZMapp] may be a treatment that will be useful, though in the short term it’s been a challenge and stressful to figure out what to do. It’s easy to say they made the right decision if it worked out well. But if it doesn’t work out well — you can’t know that in advance.”

Hunrichs said shared use at the pool hasn’t worked “because it is not being allowed to work.” Describing the pool as “a children’s playground,” Hunrichs argued that Children’s Pool beach “ought to remain open year-round.” Free-diver Ryan Sweeney characterized the decadelong battle over shared use at Children’s Pool as a “long and tortured soap opera.”
FR E E
Insisting that the Marine Life Protection Act has closed 70 percent of La Jolla to fishing, Sweeney said the pool is “smack-dab in the middle of the remaining 30 percent left open. “Why isn’t there a pinniped management plan?” Sweeney asked. “When will this problem end? When will the city take responsibility and do something about it?” In final motion, coastal commis-

sioners attached conditions to seasonal beach closure. When the measure sunsets in five years, the city is directed to return with updates on the feasibility of providing Americans With Disabilities (ADA) access at the pool's beach and the evaluation of possible methods for cleansing the pool’s seal waste-contaminated sand and water.

Pentas will set your garden aflutter
If you want to attract butterflies, bees and hummingbirds to your garden, pentas (Pentas lanceolata) are a wonderful choice to that end. This nectar-rich flowering plant, commonly known as starflower or Egyptian star cluster, is easy to grow. It's considered an annual in most parts of the country, but in our warm Southern California climate, it's a perennial and will bloom for most of the year. There are quite a few varieties of pentas to choose from. Some are compact dwarf varieties that grow to about eight inches high; older heirloom varieties grow 24 to 36 inches. When they mature, they are shrublike plants with dark green foliage and are covered with threeinch clusters of star-shaped flowers in white, red, various shades of pinks and hues of purple and lavender. Hummingbirds prefer the red ones. Pentas like it warm and need at least four hours of full sun each day – the more the better, because if they don't get enough sun they will become leggy and will not produce
as many flowers. Once they're established, you can let them dry out in between watering, but as they work to become established, the soil around them should be slightly moist but well drained. If left too dry, they can attract spider mites. Plant them in containers or in your flower beds, or if you have a sunny warm window, they can be grown indoors. Deadhead the spent flower clusters to encourage your plants to keep blooming, and fertilize them once a month with a balanced organic flower fertilizer. In January, shape and prune them back to no less than six inches from the ground and give them a shot of fish emulsion. After several years, pentas will become woody and will eventually need to be replaced, which is not a problem at all since they will have rewarded you with at least two to three years or more of flowers, hummingbirds and butterflies. Varieties of pentas to look for in plant and seed form: Butterfly, which grow 18 to 24 inches; Graffiti, a smaller compact variety, which grow

ROLLING FORWARD The Mid-Coast trolley project will serve major activity centers like La Jolla's UCSD area.
COURTESY PHOTO
Residents' input sought on Mid-Coast trolley project La Jolla and Pacific Beach residents can weigh in on the design of three new trolley stops, including one at Balboa Avenue, at a public workshop Wednesday, Aug. 27, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. in the Community Room of Pacific Beach/Birdie Taylor Branch Library, 4275 Cass St. in Pacific Beach. The three southerly stops are among nine being created in the Mid-Coast Corridor Transit Project, which will extend trolley service from Santa Fe Depot in downtown San Diego to the University City community and serve major activity centers like Old Town, UCSD and Westfield UTC. The project would be funded in
partnership by San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), the region's transportation planning agency, using a regional halfcent sales tax for transportation improvements and the Federal Transit Administration New Starts Program. Brian Curry, chairman of Pacific Beach Planning Group (PBPG), said the group specifically requested SANDAG expand its workshop schedule to include the Pacific Beach community. “Although the proposed Balboa transit stop is formally within the Clairemont community planning area, it is certainly an extremely important focus of interest and opportunity for those who live,

work and visit Pacific Beach,” Curry said. “This is ‘the’ opportunity for the public to understand the proposed trolley line and engage SANDAG on the Mid-Coast trolley proposal.” David Hicks, communications director for SANDAG, talked about the workshop’s purpose. “It’s to gather input from the public regarding the details of the station design for the three southerly — Tecolote, Clairemont Drive and Balboa Avenue — MidCoast trolley stops,” he said. He said details include landscaping, shelters, paving and access issues. Hicks said there will be a formal presentation at the outset of the Aug. 27 workshop, followed by
By DAVE SCHWAB
small-group discussions about the design of each of the three trolley stops in Pacific Beach and environs. “We’ll have three tables, each one with a facilitator,” Hicks said. “They’ll go over some ideas for each of the stations and ... solicit feedback. Guests will then switch tables so they can comment on all three trolley stations.” The SANDAG manager said the workshop’s goal is to “get people in the community to make suggestions on what works (from a design standpoint) for each individual station. We want them to fit into the communities.” For more information, visit sandag.org.
“Housing fundamentals are moving in the right direction,” according to the chief economist of the National Association of Realtors, Lawrence Yun. He maintains there is finally an increase in inventory of homes on the market. Existing home sales are increasing at a faster pace than new home sales, which in San Diego is mostly a function of lack of buildable sites. Internationally in urban areas, the trend seems to be to build a multitude of smaller units stacked upon and beside each other, with multifunction rooms, which in extreme cases can serve as a bedroom, sitting room and/or kitchen. Have no fear locally. La Jolla’s community planning board has no interest in going above 2½ stories. With increased inventory, sales were also up in June and July at the highest pace since October 2013. According to NAR, that puts the U.S. housing market on an annualized pace of 5,000,000 units to be sold in 2014. Not surprisingly, mortgage applications are also up, according to The Mortgage Bankers Association. With recent lawsuits, the restrictive Dodd Frank Act guidelines and the untethered Consumer Financial Protection Bureau practices are finally being called to account. Less-restrictive lending programs are just now starting to emerge, thus allowing more buyers to qualify for home loans. It will be interesting to see if the new minimum-wage increase to $11.50 per hour, passed by overriding Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s veto, will help or hurt home sales. Be not too hopeful of good results, as there could be negative blowback on businesses, suppressing tenured salary increases for some who would otherwise prefer to buy than rent. In San Diego and especially La Jolla, international buyers are so prevalent, we are learning Chinese at the La Jolla Real Estate Brokers Association. With the world from which to choose, it is an indication of how profitable San Diego, in particular La Jolla, is for purchasing a home when, even sight unseen, those international buyers are flocking to our shores! — Nancy Gardner, a real estate broker for more than 20 years, is founder and CEO of California Mortgage Consultants.
Senior Lifestyles ASK THE RETIREMENT CONCIERGE Q: My 16-yearold just took his solo voyage as a driver. Since I saw him learning to drive, I am nervous, at best, when he is out SHARONANN HAMILTON there alone without a parent to guide him. At the same time, my parents-in-law and my parents are creeping into their late 80s, and I notice a few dents in their cars; they all drive! That brings the tally to five people now on the road with questionable driving skills. I think I’ll be using public transportation for the next few years! What practical ideas do you have for these situations? Signed, Scared Spitless on the Roads! A, You are right to be scared. The teen statistics show us that one in five licensed 16-year-old drivers are involved in a crash each year. A few years ago, I read a book called “Licensed to Drive,” by Lynn Bieber. She teaches readers to create a special rite of passage for teens by bringing their family members together around a circle and having the older drivers tell stories about good or bad driving

Driving home the point
decisions and the wisdom they learned. This ritual underscores the seriousness of driving and receives the 16-year-old into the world of adult responsibility. The bottom line is that when you teach your child how to be independent, at some point you must back off and let him be independent, let him fly. My son was just 16 when his dad insisted that he drive from San Diego to Yuma by himself to spend the weekend there. I was petrified, not of my son’s driving skills but of the other crazies on the road. My nails were bitten to the quick! Your parents may have different challenges – slowdown in response time, loss of clarity in seeing and hearing, loss of muscle strength, the effects of medications or reduced concentration. Every senior driver has different capacities. My 72-year-old client could not or would not turn her head when backing up. One senior in my tai chi class drove herself every week from La Jolla to Mission Valley, about 25-plus minutes, to take the class. I was surprised to see her arrive one day in her bright red compact. She walked with a cane into class, left it at the door and moved her body with the rest of the class – and they told me she was 97
years old! I aspire! Some senior drivers decide to drive slowly, even on freeways, believing they are safer. Not so! Faster cars must swerve around them at high speeds. They also parallel park by sound [crunch, it’s too far], back up slowly to give pedestrians time to run away and forget their blinkers are on. I’ve even seen one couple coming out of a restaurant; the man passed out, and the wife would not let anyone call an ambulance, saying, “It’s just low blood sugar. He’ll be all right in a minute.” Then, shaking and swaying, he wove his way to the driver's seat of the car, and off they drove! My own observation and opinion is that if someone cannot turn his/her head to see what is there when backing up or when changing lanes, he/she is a danger to himself or herself and others, no matter the age. Of course, if you are a senior, the last thing you want to give up is your car. Statistics show, however, that 14 percent of fatal traffic accidents and 17 percent of fatal pedestrian accidents are caused by seniors; these numbers reveal a clear message for seniors: Be responsible! If your senior is adamant about not giving up the car, you might consider holding a ritual like the one for teen
drivers. Friends and family create a rite of passage in letting go of the car. Believe it or not, there are some benefits to giving it up. You save money on the cost of car ownership; you will likely walk or cycle more, thus improving your health; your social circle may expand as you reach out to connect with others for rides; and you just might enjoy the change of pace leaving the driving stress behind. To ease into such a transition, it is important to know your alternative transportation methods. Depending upon where you live, you might explore the world with the bus system or community shuttles, walk or cycle more and ride share. Several companies, such as Lyft or Uber, have a fleet of private drivers and for a reasonable fee will take you where you want to go. I fervently hope that seniors take time to self-evaluate their driving skills. There are several senior classes to refresh skills and rules of the road. Most seniors I know are very responsible and would be devastated if they harmed anyone while driving. In fact, each of us would have a hard time recovering from such an event. Should your senior still refuse to face facts, you might have to force the issue, although you will not be popular. Lives
may depend upon you being the “bad guy.” Seniors can be reported to the DMV, or you can discuss this with their doctor who can intervene. All that being said, seniors, you can put off the giving-up-the-car date with some preemptive actions of your own. Take a defensive driving class and refresh your skills. Keep yourself active at least several times a week. Yoga or tai chi are among fun activities that help develop balance and flexibility. Listen carefully to what others say about your driving problems, and strive to improve. When it is time to let it go, be grateful you have had a long and safe run. It will be time for new adventures, like learning to manage your life with public transportation and other people’s cars. You might even rediscover the beautiful world around you by walking! — The Retirement Concierge helps baby-boomers on the verge of retirement to plan, make and manage life transitions by guiding them through a systematic process of discovery and re-creation where they write their own rules, make their own plans and reinvent their own lives.

When is it simply ‘good enough’? Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. We’ve all heard the popular adage: Anything worth doing is worth doing well. But I live by a different motto: Not everything worth doing is worth doing well.
In other words, some things just need to be completed in a way that is good enough but not polished. For example, when balancing work and home, something has to give, and that has to be OK. In a recent book by Robert Kaplin and Robert Kaiser, “Fear Your Strengths,” the authors take some of our common wisdoms and myths and examine what happens when we carry them too far. Perfectionism, in its extreme manifestation, inhibits produc-

Our RN’s specialize in Alzheimer’s, dementia, post-operative and rehabilitation care. Our Companion Caregivers work hourly or as live-ins. The RN GCM’s guidance leads families to the actions and decisions that ensure quality care.
Medication mistakes can be dangerous Every year 1.5 million people are injured or become seriously ill when a medication mistake happens and 100,000 people a year die from the mistake. It is important for everyone to protect themselves from possible mistakes. Knowing how to avoid mistakes is important for everyone. Confusing two medications with similar names accounts for up to 25 percent of errors. Sometimes the doctor’s handwriting is misread, the wrong medicine name is put into the computer or the wrong drug is pulled from the pharmacy shelf but it happens. Drugs that could be confused might be Adderall (a stimulant for ADHD) with Inderal (a beta-blocker for high blood pressure), or Paxil (an antidepressant) with Taxol (a cancer drug) or Plavix (an anticlotting medication). Ask your doctor to write on the prescription what it’s for as well as the name and dosage. If the pharma-

tivity, because nothing is ever good enough to act on or to be finished. Also, perfectionists have a high number of chronic illnesses due to their constant anxiety about not being good enough or doing anything well enough. The common advice to follow your passion may also be misleading. Indeed, passion has driven many inventors, entrepreneurs and artists to succeed, but one must differentiate between the healthy pursuit of cist sees high blood pressure but the name of the drug is an antidepressant, it should be a red flag for the pharmacist. Sometimes drugs can interfere with each other because of their side effects. One drug can magnify the other or one drug can magnify a side effect of the other. If you take one medication that says a side effect can raise blood pressure and then you take a second medication with the same side effect, the two together could cause your blood pressure to get dangerously high. So ask your pharmacist and doctor about side effects, read the written printouts and review and compare them. The RN Care Manager at Innovative Healthcare Consultants is experienced and knowledgeable about reviewing all medications to insure against drug interactions and errors. Her job is to make sure these errors don’t happen for the client.

work one loves and the excessive need to engage in it at the exclusion of other endeavors, which often leads to impaired relationships and burnout. Fairness is a goal we are admonished to pursue from the time we are small. And it is part of our genetic makeup to seek fair treatment, but that doesn’t mean that everyone has to always be treated the same. Fairness means treating people according to their performance or needs. If everyone in a competition is given first prize, this reward becomes meaningless. Taken to an extreme, it can become demotivational, a ritual, nonproductive scorekeeping. Be nice. How often have we heard that one? We like people who are always nice; they are generous, happy to compromise and available and helpful, and they don’t make waves. But do we trust them to give us an honest answer? To critique when necessary? To stand their ground and fight for something they believe in? Another downside of nonstop niceness is one never knows what negative emotions are being harbored. Is it repressed anger or hidden sadness? People who are always nice often leave decision-making to others who may eventually resent that burden. Another mandate is to place collaboration at a premium. While collaboration has indeed led to positive outcomes in many endeavors, the rewards of diversity, working together toward a common goal and fostering good relationships do not always outweigh the effects of lowered efficiency and productivity.

there a push for people to contribute to a project even though they have nothing to offer? Are people organized into teams when they might work better independently? We all know the waste of time committees often engage in. I have at times caught myself saying when in charge of a group, “We have not heard from So-and-So,” thereby putting them on the spot and forcing them to come up with something, anything, whether it adds to the discussion or not. Finally, the prescription given to (mostly) women with both families and careers, that they can do it all and achieve a balanced life, is not doable. I was getting advanced degrees when my children were in school, so whose report was more important, theirs or mine? Do I attend their game or go to my seminar? Do I work late and get some take-out for dinner or cook something more healthful? Do I refuse that promotion with longer hours and give up on quality time with my husband? These questions have no answers. Our culture is full of edicts about how to live better, work better and be a better person, but many of these strategies produce negative consequences when followed to extremes. The solution is to pursue our lives in a way that gives us the best results we can achieve overall. When we are faced with conflicting projects and priorities, what is “good enough”?

THAT'S ONE COOL TREAT Where there's a truck designed like a tiki hut and a host of vibrant colors all over the place, can Kona Ice be far behind? In La Jolla, it is, said local entrepreneur Mark Birmingham, who trots out the brand of gourmet treats amid a cluster of calypso music from the truck's speakers and a crowd of happy kids on the street. This truck sports an interactive dispensing system that lets the customer choose the flavor he'll spill onto a cup of shaved ice – you can find it at local fairs, festivals, corporate events, birthday parties and more. Contact Birmingham by email at mbirmingham@kona-ice.com or by phone at (858) 5040775 for the straight – uh – scoop. COURTESY PHOTO
