La Jolla schools' new autonomy won't trigger changes in athletics By ED PIPER

THE CALM AFTER THE STORM When Ferdinand Magellan first sailed the Pacific Ocean in 1521, things were reportedly pretty testy, with storms threatening to capsize his entire fleet off South America's western coast. He would have given a box of buckshot for conditions like these, shown here, which feature exceedingly calm waters, a fiery sky and a schooner at rest in our area on a recent evening. Scenes like these are increasingly plentiful amid our hefty string of clear twilights. PHOTO BY DON BALCH

Scripps researcher: Ebola's replication rate is biggest threat A central figure in the fight against the Ebola virus says the organism's rapid replication makes it especially hard to battle. Meanwhile, she added, every Ebola lab sends its antibodies to her institution, marking it as Ground Zero among those who seek to defeat the disease. Erica Ollmann Saphire, a scientist at Scripps Research Institute, was among three members of a panel convened Aug. 26 at La Jolla’s Scripps Laboratories to discuss the progress against the disease. Kevin Whaley, whose Mapp Biopharmaceutical developed the drug that saved the lives of two Americans with the disease, and Marc O'Donnell, Project Concern International's chief operating officer, also attended. O'Donnell reportedly said Liberia, a poor West African country especially hard hit by Ebola, is “crumbling” under the weight of the disease. Meanwhile, Whaley repor tedly said his firm is “working very aggressively” in stepping

up production of its ZMapp drug and acknowledged Saphire’s work in identifying many of ZMapp's antibodies. Saphire said the virus’ rate of travel is as concerning as its rate of replication. In a recent related development, a group of monkeys infected with Ebola survived after being treated with ZMapp in a study that suggests the drug may be effective even after severe symptoms are present. Monkeys were given three doses of ZMapp starting three to five days after being infected with a lethal dose of Ebola. All 18 monkeys treated with ZMapp survived, while three that weren’t given the medicine died, according to the results published in the journal Nature. Ebola virus disease is an illness of humans and other primates fueled by an Ebolavirus. The disease, spread by contact with bodily fluids of infected people or through contact with exotics like fruit bats, is primarily prevalent in remote Central and West African villages. Symptoms of Ebola virus dis-

ease, also known as Ebola hemorrhagic fever, include fever, severe headache, muscle pain, weakness, diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain and lack of appetite. Symptoms may appear anywhere from 2 to 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. — Staff and contribution

The recent initiative by the La Jolla cluster of schools toward increased autonomy within the San Diego Unified School District points to the excellence of those schools, but it won’t spark any changes in the area of athletics, officials agreed. La Jolla High School enjoys freedoms “much like a private school” in the areas of curriculum and hiring, said John Labeta, assistant commissioner of California Interscholastic Federation San Diego Section, the organization governing interscholastic athletics. “They develop their own policies and procedures,” he said. “But I would still see them as governed by CIF rules and regulations,” in the same way that other schools in CIF are. There are prohibitions against recruiting, requirements for a student athlete to sit out games before becoming eligible in the case of some transfers between schools, grade stipulations and other regulations specified by CIF. None of those will be altered for La Jolla High students. However, the fact that the La Jolla schools made such an announcement about their increased autonomy in developing curriculum and hiring

teachers reportedly reflects the uniqueness of those institutions. A July 29 partnership agreement unanimously approved by district trustees gives La Jolla Cluster Association’s five schools greater flexibility and autonomy over their hiring practices, student selection and academics, effective immediately. The school year began Sept. 2. A geographic-based school cluster includes a high school and the middle and elementary schools feeding into them.

DeMaio touts reform, Peters his independence in District 52 forums BY DAVE SCHWAB Former San Diego City Councilman and ex-mayoral candidate Carl DeMaio, a Republican running against Democratic Congressional District 52 incumbent Scott Peters, promised during an open forum Aug. 11 he will transfer his reformmindedness from San Diego to Washington, D.C. if elected in November. “I want to take our reform agenda from San Diego and bring it to Washington, balance the budget, create jobs, support workers and small business and start changing the culture of Congress,” DeMaio told the Mission Bay Rotary Club at the Catamaran Resort Hotel. “Both parties are broken and the dysfunction is outrageous, which is why nothing seems to get done. We’ve got to clean up the mess and dysfunction,” he said. DeMaio’s was the first of two meetings hosted by the Rotarians, the second of which featured Peters on Aug. 18 at the same venue. Touting his reputation as a pension-reforming city councilman, DeMaio pointed out opinion polls currently show only a 7 percent approval rating for U.S. legislators.

Rock and La Jolla and Torrey Pines Elementary schools. The partnership agreement was the culmination of three years' negotiation between La Jolla Elementary School principal Donna Tripi, Muirlands Middle School teachers Julie Latta and Rob Tindall and parent Fran Shimp with district superintendent Cindy Marten. It includes a number of changes: • La Jolla schools will be able to seek new teachers from among all qualified applicants rather than the traditional “post-and-bid” hiring policy, which limits job openings to the five most senior applicants. Teacher union approval will be required for anyone hired under the new system, which breaks fresh ground in union-based hiring practices. • La Jolla schools are also allowed more freedom in structuring their curriculums and choosing textbooks. • The new agreement fits the district's neighborhood-centered educational approach embodied in its Vision 2020 plan. • Children of teachers and staff at high-performing schools will be given priority to attend them. • Any changes proposed by any of the five schools in the partnership agreement must be put in writing to a district official to be approved or rejected within 10 business days. “It was gratifying to hear our

“Congress needs to wake up. They’re out of touch with the American people,” he said, noting he’d institute a number of reforms to streamline federal government. DeMaio proposed making the federal government more transparent by posting legislation like amendments online prior to votes, eliminating special-interest lobbyist and corporate funds for congressional members’ travel and removing members’ political perks. DeMaio said if congressmen are removed from the pension system and have to rely on Social Security, they’ll “make sure those two systems remain solvent and secure.” Asked why voters should choose him rather than Peters, DeMaio replied, “Peters was on the City Council for eight years, and he [helped create] the city’s pension crisis and put San Diego on the road to bankruptcy while slashing public services. I was on the City Council for four years and was able to dig the city out of that hole and make the changes necessary to save our city from bankruptcy.” DeMaio said he felt there’s room for compromise on the immigra-

superintendent and school board members praise the inclusive process,” the association said in a written statement following the vote. “What we have created can truly be called community-based education reform. We look forward to working alongside the district with a new level of mutual respect and transparency through our new partnership agreement.” La Jolla cluster test scores are historically among the highest in the district. Previously, La Jolla High won some academic autonomy from the district after threatening to become an independent charter school. La Jolla High head baseball coach Gary Frank, a classroom teacher, said La Jolla High has “a great balance of academic excellence and athletic achievement. It shows how strong the parent support is. We get the kids to go to quality schools (universities). There are a lot of moving parts” that contribute to this excellence. Frank has coached baseball at the school for 18 years, the last 11 as head coach. Teachers and administrators at La Jolla High have pointed out that student athletes receive superior academics, compete in an excellent sports program and take part in clubs and other extracurricular activities that build leadership and service abilities to produce wellrounded graduates. Chuck Podhorsky, who recently became principal at La Jolla High and will be starting his first full school year in the position this

tion issue, saying, “The American people agree on 65 to 70 percent of reform.” Asked his views about the ArabIsraeli conflict, DeMaio said, “I’m 100 percent in support of the Israeli position, particularly seeing the consistent refusal of Hamas to participate in peace accord after peace accord.” DeMaio also gave his take on health-care reform. “I don’t know why health-care exchanges are government-managed,” he said. “I would keep the exchanges but allow them to be privatized. I would pass a bill that would allow you to take any healthcare policy from any employer and convert it in an open exchange to a cash equivalent and buy any policy you like.” A week later, La Jolla representative Peters branded DeMaio as “divisive, something Congress doesn’t need right now.” He also told the Rotarians he’s been ranked as one of the most independent congressional Democrats. “I’m willing to vote with both sides to solve problems,” he said, outlining his political priority list.

month, agreed that there won’t be any changes in athletics as a result of the initiative. He said he played baseball in high school and college, was a pole vaulter and coaches his daughter’s softball team. He talked about the unique “La Jolla High School experience” that includes participation in sports, whether club or school team. “I’m a systems person,” he said. “Here, it’s taking those great things La Jolla High already does and creating a detailed plan to help all students. “What is the La Jolla High school experience? It should be exceptional, off the charts,” Podhorsky said. “We talk about a student-athlete, so their academics always come first. Athletics give a student a way to connect to their high school. We have students doing amazing things: raising money for causes, building houses around the world. And part of that (experience) is being excited about their school. Being on a team — if you’ve ever done it, it is a fantastic feeling. Whether it’s a club or another team, those things [you do in sports] bond you to a team.” Paula Conway, a teacher in her second year as La Jolla High athletic director, also agreed the initiative doesn’t mean changes in sports. “I actually think it’s a huge testament to the La Jolla community who passed it – a testament to our school and community. We have new administrators at La Jolla High and Muirlands Middle School. I think we’re moving in the right direction.” — Dave Schwab contributed to this story.

“I put country first. The district is second. My party is third.” A former San Diego city councilman and San Diego port commissioner, Peters said he chose to be on the House Armed Services and Science, Space and Technologies committees because he wanted to be involved in areas to help San Diego spur its economy. “San Diego’s economy is driven by tourism, the military and science and innovation,” Peters said. “Onequarter of our jobs come from the military. We’re the second-leading city in telecommunications with Qualcomm and the third-leading city behind Boston and San Francisco with biotechnology.” He said he’s been supportive of local efforts to promote alternative energy, including the development of algae as a biofuel and solar energy for use by the military and in building technology. Disagreeing with DeMaio, who favors deporting children illegally in the U.S., Peters said, “We’d be

sending them back to gang violence, rape and murder — and that’s just not what we’re about. We can’t be against human trafficking on the one hand and then just say ‘Kick the kids out’ on the other,” he said. Peters said that health-care reform is one of the areas he’s deviated from the mainstream-Democrat line in Congress. “I think (Obamacare) needs a little help,” Peters said, adding that “It won’t be repealed. We can’t go back. A lot more [reform] work needs to be done. I’m ready to talk about a real solution.” Peters said he’s also out front in the effort to take some of the financial burden off students paying for school. “There’s more student debt than credit-card debt now,” he said, noting he’s authored a Congressional bill that would “refinance all student debt to 4 percent. We shouldn’t be gouging kids by requiring them to pay as much as 8 to 10 percent.”

News Preliminary hearing for stabbing suspect rescheduled for Dec. 9 A suspect in the stabbing of a biotech executive near the Westfield UTC has won a long delay in court proceedings, with his preliminary hearing now set for Dec. 9 instead of Aug. 22. Odie James Miller Jr. agreed to the delay when he appeared Aug. 20 in San Diego Superior Court on charges of attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon. He has pleaded not guilty. Miller, 20, is accused of repeatedly stabbing the executive, referred to in court records as Brian M., around 12:15 p.m. on Aug. 6 in a random attack in the vicinity of Renaissance Avenue and Towne Centre Drive. The victim is 44. Miller’s father, Odie Miller Sr., has told several television news stations

he tried to warn police and the court about his son, who ceased taking medication designed to treat his mental issues. “What I want people to know is that my son has a mental illness,” the suspect's father said. Odie Miller Jr. is on probation for attacking his father with a knife in an earlier case, but his probation has been revoked. On Aug. 7, a police SWAT team surrounded the younger Miller's mother's Rolando residence in the belief he was inside, but he was not. He was later arrested in the East Village area. The younger Miller remains in the George F. Bailey Detention Facility on $550,000 bail. — Neal Putnam

Room to roam: SeaWorld plans to double size of orca environment SeaWorld’s answer to animalrights activists’ charges that its killerwhale exhibit amounts to commercial exploitation came Aug. 15 as the marine-mammal park announced plans to nearly double the size of its existing San Diego orca environment.

SeaWorld San Diego is set to be the first of three SeaWorld parks to engage in the Blue World Project, which calls for the construction of a 10-million-gallon tank environment, set to open to the public in 2018. Park officials said the 50-foot-deep

exhibit, with a 1.5-acre surface area, is expected to give guests more access to views of killer whales underwater and would allow the animals increased engagement with park experts. Plans for the tanks also include a “fast-water current,” which

would allow the orcas to swim against moving water. “Through up-close and personal encounters, the new environment will transform how visitors experience killer whales,’” said SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. president and CEO Jim Atchison in a statement. “Our guests will be able to walk alongside the whales as if they were at the shore, watch them interact at the depths found in the ocean or get a bird’s-eye view from above.’’ SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. has also pledged $10 million in matching funds for killer-whale research and plans a ”multi-million dollar partnership” to focus on ocean health, officials said. The research includes projects to understand killer whales’ hearing ranges and gain information on their nutritional status and reproduction. “For 50 years,” Atchison said, “SeaWorld has transformed how the world views marine life. The unprecedented access to marine mammals that our parks provide has increased our knowledge of the ocean and inspired generations. Our new killerwhale homes and research initiatives have just as bold a vision: to advance the global understanding of these animals, to educate and to inspire conservation efforts to protect killer whales in the wild.” Not everyone was thrilled by the news. Martha Sullivan, a volunteer community organizer who’s been actively lobbying for the retirement of SeaWorld orcas, said SeaWorld’s decision is all about the marine park’s bottom line — not altruism. “SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. reported revenues in 2013 of $2.4 billion,” Sullivan said. “The $10 million included in its Blue World pitch for supposed research to benefit wild orcas is 0.004 percent of their revenue. Big deal. No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea,” said Sullivan, quoting legendary underwater explorer Jacques Cousteau. Sullivan claimed that, of 137 orcas captured in the wild since 1961, 13 remain alive (three in San Diego), with an average lifespan of four years

in captivity. “One of the three survivors here in San Diego, Corky, is the longest-held orca in captivity in the world, at 45 years this Dec. 11,” she wrote. “Kasatka and Ulises, the other two wild-caught orca survivors in San Diego, have been in captivity for 35 years. When do these performing animals get to retire? “SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. is willing to spend several hundreds of millions of dollars to double the surface area of its orca tank in San Diego and add 15 feet of depth to the new half of it and subject the orca and other animals held nearby to the tremendous disruption of major construction over three years,” Sullivan concluded. “SWE, Inc.’s priorities are very clear.” SeaWorld has taken a number of hits — both financially and in terms of public relations — in recent months. Animal-rights activists continue to regularly picket the park, protesting against orca captivity. Point Loma activist Alana Coons and others are petitioning City Council to ask it to direct SeaWorld to use alternatives to fireworks for their nightly summer shows. In the wording of an online petition drive protesting SeaWorld’s pyrotechnics displays, Coons claims, “SeaWorld is damaging the quality of life of hundreds of thousands of San Diegans who live within a 20-mile radius on a nightly basis every day for three months straight … The fireworks at SeaWorld constitute animal cruelty … We are asking the San Diego City Council to ban the fireworks at SeaWorld and ask them to switch to laser light shows, which are kinder to animals and the environment and show a courteous and decent neighborly behavior to San Diegans.” SeaWorld’s stock has also reportedly dropped 33 percent recently because of declining attendance. In March, a controversial bill designed to ban orca shows in California was introduced, but an Assembly committee delayed action on it to conduct further study.

Mt. Soledad group seeks help for memorial, office The Mt. Soledad Memorial Association is seeking volunteers in its La Jolla office and docents at the Mt. Soledad National Veterans Memorial atop Mt. Soledad. A variety of volunteer opportunities are available, including but not limited to memorial plaque designers, plaque salespersons, website support personnel, veteran event activities workers, social media coordinators and general administrative office workers. Volunteer docents at the site answer questions about the memorial and conduct tours upon request. Each of the above opportunities calls for about three hours of service a week. Training programs are in place to orient new volunteers. “The Mt. Soledad Veterans Memorial stands as a beautiful symbol and reminder of those who have served our country since the military was established in 1775,” said Bruce Bailey, president and CEO of the memorial association. “It is only through the support of our docents and volunteers that we can continue our work in honoring and recognizing those men and women.” Senior chief Wilfred (Bill) Sturgeon has been an association volunteer and memorial docent for the past four years. He served in the Navy and retired after 24 years of military service. He served onboard seven different destroyers in the Korean and Vietnam wars. “I am one of seven docents,” Sturgeon said, “each of us helping visitors better understand the significance of this extraordinary veterans tribute, which recognizes the major

contributions of those who have helped preserve the freedoms we enjoy as Americans. It’s an ideal opportunity for both veterans and nonveterans to show their patriotism while honoring those who have served our country.” Sturgeon's canine visitors are a highlight of each of his bi-weekly shifts. “Dog owners throughout San Diego regularly take their dogs up to Soledad Natural Park on daily walks,” Sturgeon said. “As the dogs near the top of the site, they break into quickstep knowing that I am working my docent shift, with pockets brimming with tasty dog biscuits. It’s a highlight for me to see the dogs but to also converse and share the association’s story with those who live right here in our own backyard.” In addition to answering questions and assisting the more than 60,000 visitors who pass through the memorial each year, Sturgeon completes weekly reports on the number of domestic and foreign visitors, visitor questions, plaque locator requests, group pictures and new plaque inquiries. This year, he initiated a program with volunteers to help maintain the appearance of the Memorial Walls and veteran plaques. He also oversees and supervises an induction program for new Navy chief petty officer selectees to help with general maintenance work at the memorial. He developed a detailed self-guided tour of the memorial and a U.S. Presidents and Medal of Honor Tour, which shows visitors where each of these dis-

tinguished veteran plaques are located on the Memorial Walls. "We are grateful,” Bailey added, “to the existing and future volunteers and docents who are willing to give their time and energy to preserving the spirit and commitment of the association. We hope to get the word out about our need for more volunteers and docents who bring the same energy and enthusiasm for our mission, as Bill has for so many years. He is truly an asset to our organization and to our community.” The Mt. Soledad Veterans Memorial is the only veterans memorial in the U.S. that honors veterans, living and deceased, from the Revolutionary War to the current conflicts in the Middle East. It is administered through a volunteer board of trustees and volunteers working directly with executive director Joanie Miyashiro-Brennan and her assistant Denise Larkins. The association offices are located at 6437 Caminito Blythefield, Suite B, in La Jolla. For additional information, call (858) 459-2314 or visit soledadmemorial.com. — Contribution

La Jolla drug firm enrolls first kidney-trial patient La Jolla Pharmaceutical Company, a leader in the development of therapies against life-threatening diseases, has announced it has enrolled its first patient in a therapy trial for the treatment of a life-threatening form of progressive kidney failure in patients with liver cirrhosis or liver failure. The company is developing LJPC501 for the treatment of an acute, life-threatening condition in which blood pressure drops to dangerously low levels and is poorly responsive to current treatments. LJPC-501 has been shown to raise blood pressure

in a clinical trial, as well as in animals with hypotension. Due to the estimated size of the affected patient population in the United States, the firm has filed an application for orphan drug status for LJPC-501. An orphan drug is one designed to treat a very rare disease. Hepatorenal syndrome is a lifethreatening form of progressive kidney failure in patients with liver cirrhosis. In these patients, the diseased liver secretes substances that cause underfilling of blood vessels. This low blood-pressure state causes a reduc-

tion in blood flow to the kidneys. As a means to restore systemic blood pressure, the kidneys induce both sodium and water retention, which contribute to ascites, a major complication associated with the syndrome. The American Liver Foundation reports that more than 30 million Americans have some form of liver disease. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that more than 33,000 persons die of cirrhosis annually. — Staff and contribution

Moore sentencing delayed amid late filing of report The sentencing of Point Loma resident Tara Moore, convicted Aug. 4 of embezzling millions from her former employers, was delayed on Sept. 2 to Tuesday, Oct. 7, because a sentencing report was recently delivered to her attorney, whom it was ruled had not had sufficient time to review it. Moore, 42, worked for the former Jack’s La Jolla Restaurant and acted as the firm’s bookkeeper before it

went out of business in 2009. She also was convicted of embezzling from Richard Anderson, who owned businesses in San Mateo. The probation department delivered its report Tuesday to attorney Paul Pfingst, but court rules say it must be delivered at least five court days before sentencing. Pfingst asked for the delay so he could study it. A jury deliberated 3½ days before it

convicted Moore of six felony counts, including three counts of grand theft, forgery and fraudulent appropriation by a bookkeeper. Moore did not testify in the seven-week trial in San Diego Superior Court. She had been free on $400,000 bond, but a judge remanded her to jail immediately after the verdicts. She remains in custody in Santee. — Neal Putnam

City Council backs hosting return of 35th America’s Cup to San Diego City Council on Aug. 7 passed a resolution brought forward by District 2 Councilman Ed Harris in support of San Diego hosting the 35th America’s Cup, to be held in the summer of 2017. The Unified Port District of San Diego submitted a proposal to the America’s Cup Event Authority to host the race, and on July 8, San Diego achieved finalist status. San Diego, in the running against Bermuda for the host city selection, hosted the America’s Cup in 1988, 1992 and 1995. A final decision on the venue is expected before the end of the year. “San Diego already has the infrastructure in place for the America’s Cup, and we know what it takes to host this event,” Harris said. “This breathtaking spectator sport would be a boost to our economy, and we could once again showcase America’s Finest City to the world at this international sporting event.” “The city of San Diego’s support and partnership are essential as we pursue the opportunity to host the 35th America’s Cup,” said Unified

Port District of San Diego chairman Bob Nelson. “San Diego is a ‘can do’ region, with a sailing tradition as strong as anywhere you can find, and we have unrivaled experience in coming together to host major special events. Our collaborative regional approach gives our destination a strong advantage in this competitive process.” Mayor Kevin Faulconer, who represented City Council District 2 for nearly two full terms before being elected mayor, agreed. “San Diego hasn’t hosted an America’s Cup in nearly 20 years, and bringing it back to San Diego could be great for our city,” he said. “This would be a phenomenal opportunity to showcase San Diego to the rest of the world.” The America’s Cup is the oldest trophy in international sport and is the pinnacle of the sport of sailing. The port district’s proposal calls for sailing in north San Diego Bay, unlike previous America’s Cup races held off the coast of San Diego. — Staff and contribution

UCSD researchers identify enzyme that controls breast cancer spread Researchers at the UCSD School of Medicine have identified an enzyme that controls the spread of breast cancer. The findings, reported in the current issue of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences magazine, offer hope for the leading cause of breast cancer mortality worldwide. “The take-home message of the study is that we have found a way to target breast cancer metastasis through a pathway regulated by an enzyme,” said lead author and postdoctoral researcher Xuefeng Wu. The enzyme was found to be present in breast cancer cells at two to three times the levels of healthy cells. Although the enzyme's role in regulating normal cell growth and healthful immune system function is well-documented, the study is among the first to show a link to the spread of breast cancer. Wu and his colleagues at the UCSD Moores Cancer Center found that the enzyme regulates cancer cells’ ability to transmit signals that stimulate cell growth and survival by regulating the activity of a protein which, when “knocked down,” prevents metas-

tasis. The research-ers said a compound that inhibits the activation of this protein is already being tested for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. ¸Scientists altered human breast cancer cells by silencing the proteins and injecting them into the mammary tissues of mice. Although the primary tumors grew in these mice, their cancers did not spread. “Primary tumors are not normally lethal,” Wu said. “The real danger is cancer cells that have successfully left the primary site, escaped through the blood vessels and invaded new organs. It may be only a few cells that escape, but they are aggressive. Our study shows we may be able to block these cells and save lives.” Researchers have also defined a metastasis gene signature that can be used to evaluate clinical responses to cancer therapies that target the metastasis pathway. An estimated 40,000 women in America will die of breast cancer in 2014, according to the American Cancer Society. — Staff and contribution

James F. Gilbert, Scripps geophysics researcher, 83 James Freeman Gilbert, a renowned professor emeritus of geophysics in UCSD’s Cecil H. and Ida M. Green Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, died in Portland, Ore., on Aug. 15 of injuries related to an auto accident. He was 83. A leading contributor in computational geophysics, seismology, earthquake sources and geophysical inverse theory, Gilbert was the author of numerous research papers, book chapters, reviews and other publications. Gilbert was a leading expert in seismic research. With his Scripps colleague George Backus in the 1960s, he pioneered a method of inverting data for problems like earth structure, a theory that changed the course of modern geophysical sciences and is used throughout all physical sciences. He was instrumental in establishing modern seismograph networks, most notably the International Deployment of Accelerometers, a network built with the backing of his friend and Texas Instruments cofounder Cecil Green, that has transformed modern earthquake studies and areas such as nuclear test-ban treaty monitoring. Born in Vincennes, Ind. in August of 1931, he attended the Mas-

LETTER TO THE EDITOR La Jolla Shores Tomorrow fights the ravages of time Ever since La Jolla’s heavenly beauty magnetized more and more inhabitants to its shores, there has been a need for guardian angels, in the guise of citizens’ watchdog groups, to take the community of La Jolla under their collective wings. One of these, La Jolla Shores Tomorrow, is a nonprofit organization established to promote, preserve and protect the unique architectural character and environment of the beach-town

community of La Jolla Shores through education and community forum. In the beginning, the community of La Jolla Shores existed as a seamless extension of the pristine beauty of the seaside. The small-scale charm of the picturesque residential neighborhoods and a modest commercial area harmonized well with the terrain. Adorned only in the wrap-around sound of the ocean, the energy of La Jolla Shores was easy, breezy and as casually elegant as Fred Astaire’s dancing.

Then, in the 1970s, alien “sky-box” dwellings began to rise up, standing out like sore thumbs against the horizon. Alarmed citizens, jolted out of complacency by this threat to their community, pressed the city planning department for guidance in drafting their own development regulatory code. The result: a Planned District Ordinance (PDO) for La Jolla Shores became effective in 1974. For some 20 years, the planning department and the La Jolla PDO coalesced well. Working hand in glove, they

UC man sets an example as height of fire season approaches BY SANDY LIPPE How many people have a litter Twitter account? Vince Reardon, who's lived in University City since 1987, is proud to make the claim about his "Don't Litter" Twitter. He tweets from Australia to England about his campaign to keep cigarette butts inside car ashtrays rather than outside on one big ashtray, better known as roads and sidewalks, parks and beaches. Littering is a worldwide bad habit, he's learned from interacting with folks from the British Isles and other countries. "I'm from New York," Reardon says with a ready smile and a slight accent. “The real New York — Brooklyn." He happily shares his “aha!” moment, when he decided he had seethed long enough at the sight of ugly litter and cigarette butts on his drive south on Regents Road to Route 52 several days a week. An inner voice whispered his favorite Gandhi quote: "Become the change you want to see in the world." He purchased a reflective safety vest, grabbed a couple of large trash bags and, with the blessings of his wife, Ellen, and daughter Tess in tow, headed down Regents on foot in July of 2013 to clean up the evil litter (and pick up a nasty case of poison oak) along the way. Besides the butts, his fare included tire retreads, plastic and paper and several unmentionables (which featured a pair of lacy red panties). He photographs some of his finds and tweeted a photo of a mountain of cigarette butts around the world. Five people responded to his calls for volunteer help in April. He called up some of his skills from 25 years in public relations — and as of August, he had 20 participants, with a stated goal of 50. Who's funding this? “It's my little thing,” Reardon said. “I could be playing golf, [but] I get an intrinsic satisfaction. One volunteer told me that he just feels like he does after he gives a pint of blood. You can't pay a person for that feeling.” Cigarette butts are the most prevalent litter item in America, according to Keep America Beautiful. In San Diego, cigarette butts ranked No. 1 in 2013's Top Ten Debris items, with 79,689 butts collected (I Love a Clean San Diego sawactually counts them). With the to itheight of fire season approaching

that developers adhered to the laws and guidelines of the PDO. However, over time, administering the boom of developers’ projects depleted the city’s fiscal resources and undermined the coalition’s clout. Once again, more controversial construction muscled its way in. In response to this new challenge, La Jolla Shores Tomorrow proactively crusades to preserve their heritage, their

and the persistent drought, San Diegans need to get after those folks who toss the butts out their car windows. The volunteers meet at 7 a.m. the second Sunday of every month (except for this month, in which the cleanup takes place at 8 a.m. on Saturday, the 20th) near the Starbucks at Governor Drive's Marketplace Shopping Center. Some volunteers, including Reardon's wife and daughter, socialize before the 7:30 a.m. “pick-off,” while others show up at 7:30 ready to work until around 9 a.m. Reardon weighs the bags for I Love a Clean San Diego, piling them up near recycling bins at Standley Park. He calls a city department on Monday; the bags are picked up midweek. Reardon likes to give a shout-out to some regulars: “Rich Quinonez is a terrific booster, He is a star. He works long after normal quitting time. Brooke Choi, the [University City High School] volleyball coach, and her daughter, Emma, are faithful followers too. Emma is a Centurion senior and has just started a litter group at the high school." Locals are invited to help grow the number of volunteers at the appointed time and place to socialize, or arrive a little before 8:30 a.m. ready to do good work on Saturday, Sept. 20. You will see a table set up with everything you need. Reardon credits I Love a Clean San Diego with help in mapping out the streets to clean. In turn, he has been appointed to serve on its board, but he won't rest on Sunday mornings. He will welcome you the way any spiritual leader would, and he doesn't pass a collection basket after his brief sermon. — Sandy Lippe contributes her View from 52 column to The San Diego Community Newspaper Group.

Torreys ready to tackle new season and traditions A new football season dawns, and another opportunity for old and new emerges on the gridiron at La Jolla Country Day School this fall under new head coach Tyler Hales. Country Day, which travels to Castle Park on Friday, Sept. 5 for its second contest of the season after opening with La Jolla High last weekend, opened camp several weekends ago. According to Hales, while former coach Jeff Hutzler's absence was felt, his mark on the program was clear in the traditions continued into this year. As in the past, the Torreys learned in the classroom and practiced hard on the field and in the weight room. However, this year, players cheered each other on during their weight-room testing each day. Between sessions, the team engaged in a number of activities to fuel an already strong team chemistry. A new tradition involved each senior giving a talk about what football at Country Day has meant to him; the squad began and ended its first few meetings hearing from a different senior. “While we have had these senior talks in the past,” Hales said, “we found that hearing from these young men during camp really helped set the tone for our camp and hopefully the season.”

All eight seniors (Darien Brown, Ben Coden, Greg Coffman, Jack Desany, Cody Galvan, Cole Goldklang, Grayson Lyman and Bryce Pearlman) gave powerful speeches. A central theme was the camaraderie with their teammates, the joy they have in playing this game and the many life lessons they have learned. Finishing with a record of 5-6 a season ago, the Torreys and Hales are looking to find leadership traits from everyone at some point during the 2014 campaign. As Hales sees it, senior captain Coffman is going to provide important leadership on a young offensive and defensive line. “He has already proven himself to be a great leader on and off the field,” Hales said. “He is one of our strongest players, and he is one of the few returning lineman.” According to Hales, Brown is one of the team's most consistent players and also one of the fastest. He is a big part of the offense, and he returns as the team’s leading receiver from last year. He's also proven himself to be a tough cornerback on the defensive side of the ball. “He is a quiet leader who just goes hard every single day, which pushes all of his teammates,” Hales said. Meanwhile, sophomore quarter-

back Braxton Burmeister is a returning starter at the position after playing every snap as a freshman. “He worked incredibly hard this offseason,” Hales said, “and has really improved every aspect of this game. He has had a great preseason and he has set himself up be a vital and confident leader on our offense. “We plan to surprise some people by competing for the Coastal League title, as well as advancing deep into the CIF Playoffs in division 5.” Hales is pleased with the work ethic from everyone involved. “This group — both players and coaches — is one of the most dedicated and hardworking group of Torreys that I can remember,” Hales said. “Far more important than the incredible talent of our players and coaches, it's their high character that gets me excited to get to practice each and every day. We have a group of seniors who have really bought in to what we are trying to accomplish, and they have taken the team under their wing by showing their teammates how to do things the right way, the Torrey way. Because of the character of this team, I have no doubt that we will be successful on the field this year, which of course also makes things even more fun.”

The Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County held its first Style with Masters of Fashion luncheon and fashion show on Aug. 23. This event was held at The Centre in the Lexus Escondido dealership — the idea is to have fun shopping and dining while you wait for your car. The show began in the Sunset Heights Banquet Room while the guests enjoyed a luncheon catered by Vintana Wine & Dine. DJ Noel 2033 laid down the tunes for the afternoon, and models came down the catwalk in daywear different than in other stores — the lovely line of colorful outfits resembled flowing caftans, and a collection of gorgeous gowns came down the runway for the finale. These crème de la crème Paris-made garments were designed by Ukrainian designer Olena Dats, and they were definitely the hit of the show as Dats puts a modern twist on the Slav tradition.

Playhouse residents CCdd: How about a show set on Mars in 2044? BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE Some of the best, most innovative theatrical work is produced by San Diego’s small theaters. Many are “homeless,” or “gypsy,” companies, with no regular venue. Recognizing that, La Jolla Playhouse artistic director Christopher Ashley instituted a resident theater program that so far has hosted Mo’olelo Performing Arts Company, MOXIE Theatre, San Diego Asian American Repertory Theater, Eveoke Dance Theatre and Teatro Máscara Mágica. Circle Circle dot dot (CCdd) begins its 2014-15 La Jolla Playhouse residency Sept. 12 with a new work, titled “Red Planet Respite,” written and developed (during a residency at Arizona State University) by CCdd artistic director Katherine Harroff in collaboration with Soroya Rowley. Set on Mars in 2044, the work concerns the first vacation resort on the red planet. “Red Planet Respite” runs through Sept. 28. For reservations, go to circle2dot2.com. Augie's No Match for Crab Crab is the star and a subtle

scene-stealer. Through Sept. 14 in the Old Globe Theatre’s outdoor Lowell Davies Festival Theatre, you'll witness a lovely production of Shakespeare’s “Two Gentlemen of Verona” as part of the Globe's Summer Shakespeare Festival, replete with a beautiful, fairy tale set by John Arnone, the most laidback Crab the Dog ever seen (yes, even more relaxed than you were, Augie), and a meticulously cut, well-acted script, for which credit is due to veteran director Mark Lamos. See it or be sad. It runs at 8 p.m. Tuesdays through Sundays. For more, visit theoldglobe.org or call (619) 23-GLOBE. Doing the Dass Happy Dance La Jolla theater entrepreneurs Dori Salois and Robert Salerno couldn’t be more pleased over their Vantage Theatre production of Lynne Kaufman’s “Be Here Now: the Journey of Ram Dass,” which starred the amazing Warren David Keith and played Aug. 15 to 17 at Ocean Beach Playhouse.

Big changes are on tap at Oggi’s Liberty Station Reigning as Liberty Station’s first full-service restaurant, Oggi’s Sports|Brewhouse|Pizza is currently expanding its menu and beer program to the tune of a new audiovisual system that will arrive just in time for the NFL season. “We’re having four 60-inch LCD screens put in by the end of September, and we just replaced all of the tables and booths,” says franchisee Robert Waldon, who opened Oggi’s in Point Loma seven years ago after serving as a firefighter in Orange County. Aside from running the familyfriendly bar and grill, from which he’s raised more than $10,000 for the Wounded EOD Warrior Foundation, he works in public safety as a technology consultant. Liberty Station also marks the first

Oggi’s in San Diego County to soon expand its tap offerings from 14 to 30. The lineup already includes eight of the company’s signature craft beers plus a seasonal brew and a barrel-aged special, although in the coming month it will make room for a slate of suds produced by other local brewers. Oggi’s was founded in 1991 by brothers George and John Hadjis. They opened their first location in Del Mar as a pizzeria. A few years later, they integrated microbrewing into the equation and eventually launched Left Coast Brewery in San Clemente for beer making. The effort blossomed into a portfolio of award-winning beers such as crisp California Gold blonde ale, slightly sweet McGarvey’s Scottish Ale and the refreshingly hoppy Double Up IPA. Connoisseurs will also cherish the hearty barrel-aged Black Magic Stout that earned a gold medal at this year’s San Diego International Beer Competition. The honor ranks among dozens of others that Oggi’s beers have garnered at high-profile competi-

tions over the past two decades. The company currently operates 16 franchised restaurants, located mostly throughout Southern California. In addition, Oggi’s Pizza Express outlets opened recently at 825 Garnet Ave. in Pacific Beach and in the Student Union Center at San Diego State University. Several companywide menu changes were implemented in August, including the enlargement of personal-size pizzas from eight to 10 inches. As with the bigger sizes, the pies are constructed from handtossed dough and house-made red sauce, ranking as “the official pizza of the San Diego Chargers.” (Oggi’s is the exclusive pizza vendor at Qualcomm Stadium.) From the specialty list, the new Sports Fan pizza is crowned with a zesty mélange of pepperoni, sausage, red onions, bell peppers, roasted garlic and jalapeños. The popular Heavy Weight ups the meat factor with the additions of Canadian bacon, ground beef, salami and ham, while the Wimbledon coddles vegetarians with a garden’s worth of fresh veggies, pineapple and parsley.

A ‘food only’ ticket is available for $20. Most restaurants will offer samples of a signature dish, alongside a spirit or beer brand sampling its product. “We have had similar events in the

past but this year’s Taste of Old Town is sure to knock your socks off,” said event chair Chuck Ross of Old Town Family Hospitality Corp., the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Fiesta de Reyes. “All the restaurants have stepped up and are serving either specially created dishes for this event, or their signature favorites.” At the Fiesta de Reyes restaurants, Casa de Reyes will be serving a taste of one of their most popular dishes ‘Mar y Tierra,’ which is a prawn stuffed with crab, spinach, mushrooms and wrapped in bacon. Barra Barra Saloon will be serving mango sea bass ceviche in a mini martini glass and mini portions of Chile Colorado, which is pork simmered in a rich red, dry chili sauce. The Cosmopolitan Restaurant has created a mini short

rib slider skewer, exclusively for Taste of Old Town. Café Coyote will be serving its ‘Famous Cafe Coyote Carnitas Taco,’ featuring tender pieces of pork slow cooked in Mexico’s traditional style, topped with guacamole, salsa fresca, onions, cilantro and lime. Miguel’s Cocina is planning to serve its ‘Camarones Jalisco,’ which is jumbo shrimp stuffed with Monterey jack cheese and rajas, wrapped in bacon and grilled, then topped with its famous jalapeño white sauce. Old Town Mexican Café will spotlight its carnitas and pollo asado street tacos, topped with grilled onions and guacamole salsa. They will also be serving up ‘Chocoflan,’ a homemade flan glazed with

tequila on top of moist chocolate cake.

Gyrotonic fitness isn’t a cure, but it might just lead to one

BY MARTIN JONES WESTLIN

Marla Bingham's 91-year-old mom makes a good case for advances in mainstream medical science. Her knee replacements have redrawn her world. Gone is the limited range of motion that compromised her comfort and, more important, her independence. She's even driving again, living to the max as new technology declares itself a full partner in traditional medicine's evolution. That seems at odds with Bingham's expertise in the Pilates and Gyrotonic Expansion fitness systems, regarded by some as alternative quasi-medical practices in an age of alternative marketing. The fact is, Pilates has been around for about a century, and its close cousin, the Gyrotonic Expansion System, is more than 70 years old. By comparison, knee arthroplasty found its first favor as recently as the 1970s. It's all about perception, Bingham said — in matters of optimum health, one person's old school is another's New Age, and vice versa. So goes the conversation on a recent afternoon at La Jolla's The Marla Bingham Studio, where my firsthand exposure to Gyrotonic fuels an appreciation for brain-body communication, Bingham's disarming commercial candor and the beauty of body movement as the studio marks its tenth year in business. The Gyrotonic Expansion System, created in 1942, looks to key principles found in dance, yoga, tai chi and swimming and stresses synchronized movement and breath. The explanation seems pretty simplistic, but its practical application may have saved its creator's health. Hungarian swimmer and dancer Juliu Horvath, who suffered from chronic pain and the aftermath of an injury that ended his career with the Houston Ballet, crafted a novel series of exercises and routines that derived from his observations of nature. “The octopus, the monkey and the cat,” Horvath said, “are my basic models, because they can move in any direction at any given time with

strength and control because they have no restrictions. The human body has restrictions, but I can model the body — within the framework of its restrictions — to move in a similar way, to be free.” Enter Massachusetts native Bingham, her background as a George Ballanchine dancer and the enormous physical toll it exacted. The Pilates and Gyrotonic systems, she reasoned, were logical progressions to fitness, and her licensed expertise is evident amid Horvath's allusion to the animal kingdom. “I'm always moving,” Bingham explained. “Most of us either don't move enough or our movements are repetitive, activities that the brain is used to. But muscles are what's called [parasympathetic], meaning that one [fires] off the other and so on.” Accordingly, Bingham's casual and random movements are virtually effortless, taking their cues from synchronized breathing's role in overall health. The client's part involves an introduction to a body-fitting bench, a weight-driven set of pulleys and straps and Bingham's attention to my breathing amid the slow, gentle stretches below the waist (a sore

point for me). This isn't so much exercises as attunement, an effort to align mental, emotional and pulmonary function. It works — after 45 minutes, I'm dizzy from the intake of oxygen and, more important, buoyed by the potential of an altered physical state. Bingham expected nothing less — meanwhile, she said, one benefit of her practice lies in its limitations. “Gyrotonic,” Bingham said, “is not for everybody. Pilates is not for everybody. Yoga is not for everybody. Veganism is not for everybody. If you have an abnormality like scoliosis (curvature of the spine), nothing I do can fix it. I'm not a cure. What I can do is get you thinking about the brain and how it communicates with [your infrastructure] so that you can feel better.” Bingham draws out the last two words as if declaring a prognosis. Feeling better, after all, sets the foundation for the brain-body connection that paves the road to feeling your best. To that extent, Gyrotonic is a success.

serves as the legal voice in the San Diego Chargers' fight to build a new stadium has joined the defense team of the Texas governor charged with abuse of his office. Mark Fabiani, partner in La Jolla's Fabiani & LeHane law firm, will seek to defend Gov. Rick Perry from allegations that he attempted to coerce a public official to resign. Perry has pleaded guilty to two felony counts for threatening to withhold funding from an anti-corruption program after state District Attorney Rosemary Lehmberg refused his demand she step down following a charge of driving while intoxicated.

The more serious of the two carries a sentence of up to 99 years. Fabiani has served as an adviser to former President Clinton and was a member of former Vice President Al Gore's communications staff in the 2000 general election. Attorney Ben Ginsberg, who opposed Fabiani during the 2000 presidential recount, is also on the defense team. Study of coastal whales inaugurated by Navy The Navy has inaugurAted a study to document the feeding, diving and travel habits of whales off the Southern California coast. The project, which began on July 31, involves Oregon State University researchers' attempts to attach 24 trackers to the fins of

blue whales and fin whales, whose locations will be tracked for a year. In a separate project, eight whales will be tagged in an effort to learn about their deep-water foraging habits. Preliminary results will be reported to the National Marine Fisheries Service next spring. Field work is also planned for 2015 and 2016. Data will be combined with oceanographic information to obtain results that can only be achieved underwater. The Navy estimates that the work may kill up to 155 mammals and injure 2,000 others. The study begins as environmental groups fight the military and the fisheries service over a permit that allows the Navy to use sonar and explosives charges.

Doing it Better By Natasha Josefowitz, Ph.D. A management consultant, like a doctor, will diagnose the problem (illness), offer solutions (remedies), discuss the possible consequences of each alternative (the side effects), help to implement the decision (treatment) and observe closely to see that the suggestions are followed correctly to avoid unintended consequences (follow-up visits). And just as a doctor may work only with the patient or involve the family in the treatment, a consultant may work with just the CEO, the management group or the total organization. Both the consultant and the doctor will reassess and change the course of action or treatment if necessary. As a management consultant, I am often called on to help an organization in trouble, but it is easier to

Using management consultants know when a person is ill and needs a doctor than when an organization is sick and needs a consultant. What are some of the problems that may require these services? Personality clashes may cause a group to work ineffectively, relations may be strained by power conflicts between different groups or leaders may be unable to steer an effective course of action. The problem could also be in the system as a whole: The labor market or physical conditions are untenable or there is a general climate of malaise. When a CEO or manager is unable to cope with these problems alone, it is time to call in a consultant. The consulting process can be applied to any organization: a school, hospital, corporate office, bank, retirement community, factory or shop. There are times when the objective viewpoint of an outside specialist is essential to solving the

problem, whether it be diagnosing the difficulty, locating it within the organization, devising a solution or implementing the new course of action. Spotting and eradicating trouble relies on a collaborative effort between the client and the consultant. Without top management’s support, little can be accomplished. The consultant will gain the necessary credibility by demonstrating knowledge of what questions to ask, how to listen, what to look for and how to observe. The consultant will diagnose the organization in order to answer the question “What is really going on?”

using data gathered from inside or outside the organization. Questionnaires may be sent to all employees or just to representative groups, or key people may be interviewed. The challenge is to ask the right questions so that the correct issues will be addressed. It is also important for the consultant to spend some time in the organization in order to observe the various interactions. Frequently, the information is fed back into the system. This means that the findings are reported back, often anonymously to safeguard confidentiality, giving people in the organization some indication of the issues involved. This knowledge allows the decision makers to understand the results and to participate in a plan of action. For instance, let us take poor performance: People don’t perform up to standards due to one of three reasons. They are willing but unable to due to their own limitations; the question then is can they be trained. Or they have the ability and desire but they are being prevented by other employees, management, lack of resources or policies; the question then is can these obstacles be removed.

Medication mistakes can be dangerous LJ

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

them onboard, can anyone else in the organization act as a coach. A consultant defines the problems with the employees and sees if they can generate ideas on how to improve their own performance with specific benchmarks for evaluations on progress. The next step — implementation — is a series of interventions. Intervention means change, and change is always a risk and most people resist it. This step demands the ability to deal with the resistance as well as the sense of how far to push against it. The consultant needs to think through not only the intended consequences but also the possible unintended ones. The evaluation phase may be challenging. Assessing whether the feedback and changes are having a positive outcome is usually a process rather than an end product. The ability to deal with error and change direction if necessary is a critical skill in this area. The last phase is termination, requiring the ability to know when to stop. This is not always easy, because a mutual dependence may have occurred, and the desire to continue this experience may be strong for both the people in the organization and the consultant. Using the eyes and ears of a person from outside the organization will make it easier to discover a different perspective and promote a novel solution. 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 pharmacist 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.

A Bird Rock resident complained of La Shore Market, Inc.’s plans to relocate, along with its existing liquor license, from 5590 La Jolla Blvd. to 5726 La Jolla Blvd. “If this liquor license is approved, this would be the only mixed-use building in La Jolla that would have a retail tenant selling liquor,” noted the resident, who said the change could present security and parking problems. The resident has sent a written protest to the state Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Board, which regulates liquor licenses, arguing La Shore Market’s proposed move could have a negative impact on the quality of 20-plus residences on the second and third floors of the building. The protestor said La Shore plans to move into the building next door to Adrenalina Longboard Skateboard Skate Shop, at 5726 La Jolla Blvd. #105, which he argued would be inappropriate in that it might prove to be a bad influence on youth. Sana Mansour, manager of La Shore Market, said she was surprised by the protest, as the market has done extensive community outreach with residents of the building into which she intends to

move. “We’re not some newbie coming in and people don’t know [us]; we have an existing liquor license,” said Mansour. "We’re not applying for a new license. It’s the same license.” Mansour said the market discussed its plans with local residents, adding “everyone was for it (the move).” “We’re moving into a bigger space, and we’re going to create a more upscale store, with a deli, custom cabinetry, a cooling system and high-quality crafted beers,” Mansour said. “It’s going to bring value to the only market in the area.” Mansour said La Shore, which has been in Bird Rock since 1985 and survived a fire in 2000, has always lived within the rules and been good neighbors. IN OTHER ACTION

• Government rep Allison Don announced she was leaving state Sen. Marty Block’s office to take a position on First District Councilwoman Sherri Lightner’s staff. • Past BRCC president Joe LaCava addressed the group, noting a push is on in the city of San Diego to address low wages within the city’s police department that have led to officers retiring early or moving where pay is better. “We’ve got a real problem,” said LaCava, adding “the situation is only going to get worse” if it’s not adequately addressed.

Orb weavers aren't nearly as fearsome as they look

BIKE >> CONT. FROM PG. 15

In early fall, By LINDA MARRONE just in time for Halloween, you will begin to notice some pretty large spiders in your garden, and they will probably be of the orb weaver variety. Spinning large round webs that can reach up to several feet across, the spider itself can come in a variety shapes and colors (most of the ones in my garden are brownish), and it can also have markings on its body. The orb weaver is a lie-in-wait predator that sits in the center of its web, head down, its eight legs tucked under its crablike body, which can be anywhere from a quarter of an inch to an inch or more. But when disturbed or moving in to capture its prey, the spider will unfurl its long legs, and that is when you see how large it is. Orb weavers have an annual lifespan and reach full maturity in the fall. In most orb weaver species, the female weaves and sits in her web. The male will visit the female’s web when he is searching for a mate and will either reside in a nearby hiding place or build a smaller web at the corner of the chosen mate’s home. Whereas you will see the orb weaver's large web during the day (especially in the early morning, when it may be covered in dew), the animal is a nocturnal creature and builds its web in the twilight and evening hours, usually near lights that attract insects. In the fall, the female orb weaver will lay hundreds of eggs that she hides in a protective silk sac. As the cooler days of winter begin, the

mature orb weavers die, but the young will emerge from the sac in the warmth of the spring and make their way into the garden. The juveniles will usually go unnoticed until the end of the summer, when they have grown into large, efficient garden predators.

Real-estate CEO to represent area at FBI citizens academy Nancy Gardner, one of our community-minded citizens, is on her way to Indianapolis as the appointed representative from the San Diego FBI Citizens Academy for the National Leadership Conference, attended by one chosen representative from each U.S. state and territory. It’s an extreme honor to be asked to attend the symposium, in which all representatives will share ideas on community outreach, member participation, education, hands-on experiences and all of the training and information imparted to those lucky enough to have taken the two-month class and, of course, been taught to shoot by the FBI. Along with her membership in Infragard, the FBICAAA training has put Nancy in a position to help should there be a crisis. She holds B.A. and M.A. degrees from Michigan State University, has previously

taught at Pima College in Arizona and blew out the comp plan as a sales associate, then sales planning manager, with Xerox Corporation in Phoenix. After moving to La Jolla, she worked with Coldwell Banker Commercial Real Estate before founding her award-winning California Mortgage Consultants/CMC Finance, Inc. real-estate finance company in 1994. Nancy is also a police commissioner II for the Police Historical Association, with whom she chaired last year’s La Jolla Dancing with the Stars event, featuring Mary Murphy of “So You Think You Can Dance” and Jonathan Roberts of “America’s Dancing with the Stars” as emcees. You may remember Nancy also led the drive to redo the police storefront on Olney Street in Pacific Beach. The La Jolla Real Estate Brokers Association and Dewhurst Construction were instru-

mental in the success of that remodel. La Jolla Rotary Club stepped in to paint and landscape the exterior of the building. The giving hand of La Jolla Rotary, of which Nancy is community service board chairman, will again be seen in 2015 with a project they are planning at the same storefront location in which the police, led by Captain Jerry Hara, and many community service groups will work together to create — a day of respite and needed services for homeless who are not chronically so but, due to events beyond their control, situationally homeless. If you are civic-minded and interested in helping with the Rotary project, or joining the FBICAAA, you may contact Nancy at her office, (858) 456-3000, or by email at nancy@cmcfinance.com, upon her return from the FBICAAA leadership conference.

future expansions yet, but we will work with the La Jolla community if we determine to pursue La Jolla in the future.” In 2013, San Diego City Council signed a 10-year contract to partner with DecoBike to create a citywide network of 180 bikeshare stations for short-term rentals to encourage bicycling and alternative modes of travel. Fourteen of those stations — eight in the Village, three in La Jolla Shores, two in Bird Rock and one in Windansea — were proposed in La Jolla. Postponement of the bikeshare plan was well received by some who had objected to the prospect of advertising being used at bikeshare stations, which they claim would have violated the community’s Planned District Ordinance (PDO). There was also a general perception that the decision to move bikeshare into La Jolla was being rushed without proper vetting. Joe LaCava, president of La Jolla Community Planning Association (LJCPA), which makes land-use recommendations to the city, hailed

bikeshare’s delayed entry into La Jolla as a positive development affording the community more time to prepare. LaCava suggested bikeshare may not have been effectively presented to La Jollans. “The approach was always, ‘We’re coming here and putting them in your neighborhood. What do you think?’” LaCava said, adding, “In La Jolla, we’ve never heard a conversation about what bikeshare does, how it works, what are the benefits to residents and to merchants.” Noting there was also pushback from La Jollans about bikeshare taking away public parking on behalf of a private business, LaCava suggested DecoBike needs to better make its case “for how bikeshare would fit into the culture of the neighborhood.” “I urge the consultants to take a step back and explain how bikeshare is going to benefit the neighborhood and the community,” he said. LaCava pointed out that once bikeshare can “show demonstrated success in other neighborhoods, how it really integrates into those neighborhoods,” then DecoBike will have established a track record on which to sell La Jollans on bikeshare’s viability.

Suicidal man arraigned at hospital on weapon charge A suicidal man who pointed a gun at police in Mission Bay Park before police shot him Aug. 6 has been arraigned in his bed at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla on two counts of exhibiting a weapon in the presence of police officers. A not guilty plea was entered for Lance Marshall Tamyo, 45, who remains in the hospital. San Diego Superior Court Judge Joan Weber set bail at $150,000, and Tamyo will be transferred to jail after he is discharged from the hospital. Deputy District Attorney Michael Runyon said Tamyo faces a maximum sentence of three years and

eight months in prison, if convicted. Runyon declined to comment about Tamyo’s medical condition. On Aug. 6, Tamyo called 911 from his car, saying he was suicidal, had a gun and wanted officers to kill him. Police kept him talking on his cell phone, but Tamyo got out of his car and walked around a grassy area holding a gun. He allegedly pointed the weapon at numerous officers and at an overhead police helicopter before he was shot near De Anza Cove and rushed to the hospital. — Neal Putnam
