Paragliding collision raises safety concerns

On a clear day when the winds are just right, the skies along the4.5-mile stretch of coastline at the Torrey Pines Gliderport fill with oneof the most diverse groups of aviation sport enthusiasts in the state.

When two paragliders collided mid-air Aug. 8, seriously injuringone of the gliders, questions arose about the safety risks of hang glid-ing, paragliding and other affiliated sports.

Bruce Elder, attorney for the Gliderport and a certified tandeminstructor pilot for paragliders, witnessed the accident.

“One paraglider tangled his wing with the feet of another paraglid-er and lost control of the wing,” he said. “As a consequence, he fellagainst the cliff edge. Fortunately, he’s going to be all right.”

While Elder called the accident “unfortunate,” he added that suchincidents are extremely rare.

“I’ve been flying at the Gliderport for 10 years, and I’ve never seentwo gliders collide like that,” he said. “Collisions are extremely rare, butwhen there is an accident, we take it very seriously.”

Lifeguard Chief Rick Wurts said that lifeguards keep statistics on cliffrescues but do not track which ones pertain specifically to gliders.

“We do get a number of cliff rescues each year, but the vast major-ity are from people trying to hike up or down the cliffs,” Wurts said.“Occasionally, there’s an incident of a hang glider colliding with thecliff, but it’s certainly not a large percentage of the overall number ofcliff rescues we do.”

Elder said most gliding accidents do not occur due to faulty equip-ment or unstable conditions, especially at Torrey Pines.

“The conditions at Torrey Pines are very benign and safe relative tomost flying sites around the world,” he said. “There’s typically a verysmooth airflow coming off the ocean, rather than turbulent air thatoften comes in mountainous areas.”

Instead, most accidents occur when riders are distracted, he said. “Pilots need to take extra care to be very alert,” he said. “Accidents

almost always result from a momentary lapse in judgment or atten-tion, very much like running into a curb or getting into a fender ben-der while driving because you’re not looking.”

Four types of gliders — hang gliders, paragliders, radio-controlledmodels and full-size sailplanes — frequent the Gliderport, and eachrequires a unique level of training and certification.

“No one can fly at that site without having training and withoutbeing certified,” he said.

Paragliders and hang gliders must be certified through a trainingprogram approved by the U.S. Hang Gliding and Paragliding Associ-

ation (USHPA), a nonprofit organization that defines training levelsand instruction standards and issues certifications.

Elder said many people confuse the two types of gliders. Hang glid-ers have triangular-shaped wings and the pilot lays flat, whileparagliders travel at slower speeds.

“Hang gliders are required to have a higher level of certificationthan paragliders because of the aircraft and conditions,” Elder said.

The programs involve a combination of classroom instruction,

VILLAGE NEWSCommunity shows support for crash victims

Bird Rock community members arerallying to support the victims of Sun-day’s tragic accident involving a sus-pected intoxicated driver who crashedinto the Cass Street Café on La JollaBoulevard, seriously injuring threeteenagers and two adults.

Visitors are invited to come to Cass

Street Café, 5550 La Jolla Blvd., onSaturday, Aug. 21 to sign large postersand drop off additional cards or giftsfor the three teenagers who werestruck by the vehicle while walking onthe sidewalk with two other friendsnear the café.

Lt. Andra Brown of the San DiegoPolice Department said that the namesof the victims could not be released

because they are minors, but she saidthat all three were hospitalized andsuffered injuries. The two male victimswere treated for injuries that includeda broken arm, a fractured tibia and apossible concussion, and the femalesustained “pretty serious injuries”including a fractured pelvis and femur,she said.

SDPD Det. John Letteri said that the

two injured adults were Sherry andJeff Macelli, Bird Rock residents whowere seated at a table near the win-dow when the vehicle crashedthrough the wall.

Cass Street Café closed temporarilyfor repairs following the crash, withplywood covering the wall that wasimpacted by the vehicle. It reopenedfor business Tuesday morning.

Owner Mike Campagna said he wasworking with insurance companiesand other authorities in the aftermathof the incident and did not wish tocomment on the accident at the timethis issue went to press.

Two shark sightings were reported off the coastof La Jolla Shores on Sunday, Aug.15, said lifeguardLt. Andy Lerum. The first sighting was reported at9:30 a.m. by a kayaker, who said he saw “a largegray and white shark about 15 or 16 feet long,”about two miles offshore, Lerum said. The kayakersaid the shark’s tail fin bumped into his kayak.

“He notified lifeguards right away, but that didn’tcause great concern for people swimming on thebeach because it was so far out,” Lerum said. “It’s aregular occurrence for sharks to be in San Diegowaters, but it’s rare for people to see them.”

Later that day, around 5:30 p.m., three differentlifeguards observed a large shark about 50 yardsoff La Jolla Shores, Lerum said.

“They had a pretty clear view of it with high-powered binoculars,” he said.

Lerum said the second sighting did causeconcern for public safety because of its prox-imity to the shore.

“We warned the public, but it was a voluntaryevacuation and the water was not closed because nobehavior was observed that would suggest the sharkwas feeding or acting unusual,” he said.

ground training, tandem flying withan instructor and solo flight withobservation and radio communica-tion from an instructor on theground. “The pilot has to prove pro-ficiency to advance through the pro-gram,” Elder said. “It’s a very indi-vidualized process.”

For those who want to experiencegliding without going through thetraining process, the Gliderport offerstandem flights with instructors.

As many as 20 to 30 gliders may fillthe sky on a good day, Elder said. Whileno official limits to the number of glid-ers exist, a flight director at the Glider-port regulates operations to maintainsafety standards.

“He oversees all the activity andmakes sure everyone stays coordinat-ed,” Elder said.

Elder, who has been paragliding fornine years locally and in sites through-out Central America, Europe, and theHimalayas in Nepal, said the TorreyPines Gliderport has an allure that dis-tinguishes it from the rest.

“The Gliderport is really special,” hesaid. “The gorgeous scenery and pre-dictable weather make great flyingconditions.”

Founded in 1930, the Gliderport

has a rich past that appeals to glidingaficionados. “It has a lot of history thatmakes it really special for pilots whoare into the sport,” Elder said.

The Gliderport is the last remainingsite on the West Coast where visitorscan see full-size sail planes.

“To see full size sail planes, particu-larly in a city setting, is quite unique,”Elder said.

The minor risks associated with avi-ation sports, he said, can be easily mit-igated with caution and good judg-ment.

“There’s a famous saying that avia-tion is notoriously unforgiving of careless-ness,” he said. “But flying at the Glider-port is fantastically beautiful. Iencourage everybody to come out andtry it. Just bring your brain with you.”

“There is some question as towhether he has a reliable homeaddress,” Brown said.

Troyer was allegedly driving southon La Jolla Boulevard when he droveup onto the sidewalk, striking three ofthe five teenagers, then coastingthrough the wall of the cafe.

“The car was completely inside thebuilding,” Brown said.

Following the collision, Troyer washospitalized rather than arrested. “He

was claiming that he blacked out andwas having heart issues,” Brown said.

Letteri said Troyer performed poor-ly on field sobriety tests and“appeared to be under the influenceof a narcotic.” He added that Troyerhas had seven previous license sus-pensions, in addition to two DUIs.

Troyer was released from the hospi-tal Wednesday morning and arrestedshortly thereafter, Brown said.

“The suspect was taken intopolice custody and booked in jail,wh e r e h e i s b e i n g h e l d o n$50,000 bail,” she said.

Troyer faces seven charges thatrange from driving under the influ-ence and reckless driving to drivingwithout a license. He is scheduled tobe arraigned on Friday at 1:30 p.m.

La Jolla’s Scripps Pier will come alivewith the aloha spirit Sunday, Aug. 22at the 17th annual Luau and Long-board Invitational, sponsored by theMoores Cancer Center at the Universi-ty of California, San Diego.

Surf legends, business leaders, can-cer survivors and community mem-bers will gather at the pier at 7 a.m. forthe longboard invitational, where oneprofessional surfer joins each spon-sored team of four surfers to competefor trophies. Any surfer can earn aspot on a team, plus two luau tickets,by raising $2,500 for cancer support.This year, about 100 surfers will com-pete on 20 teams.

“There are always so many peoplewho want to get involved that openingup the competition to the public and

letting more people have the chance toparticipate was an easy decision,” saidWoodie Perrin, the event co-chair.

An announcer will narrate thecompetition, which focuses more oncancer support than skill level. TheDuo-Tones will provide surf music andHealii’s Polynesian Revue will per-form. Guests will also have opportuni-ties to gather autographs from surfers,enter a drawing for a custom surf-board and purchase souvenir mer-chandise.

To date, the event has raised morethan $4.7 million for research at theMoores UCSD Cancer Center, saidevent co-chair Greg Gorgas.

No additional sightings havebeen confirmed since Sundayevening, Lerum said.

“A lot of dolphins in the area havebeen mistaken for sharks,” he said.“A few people reported to the mediathat they saw sharks, but once life-guards interviewed them it wasconfirmed they were dolphins.”

Lerum said the warning peri-od lasts for 24 hours, but thatthe lifeguards continue to edu-cate the public about the sight-ings.

“It’s just more of an informa-tion exchange,” he said.

Images of ravaged shorelines, tar-drenched wildlife and vast petroleumpools coating ocean waters continueto gush forth in the aftermath of theApril 20 Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

Though the repercussions of thelargest marine oil spill in history arestill being calculated, one positive hasemerged. Residents of other coastalcommunities are asking questions andraising awareness about how to pre-vent and prepare for similar disastersin their own backyards.

Robin Lewis, senior environmentalscientist with the state’s Office of OilSpill Prevention and Response (OSPR),said that although the consequencesof the more than 200 million barrelsalready released into the Gulf are far-reaching, the California coastlinewould not be affected. He added thatLa Jolla residents should focus onthreats closer to home instead.

“Yes, there are potential sources ofoil spills off the coast of San DiegoCounty,” Lewis said. “Some are fairlysignificant, but most are relativelyminor.”

Lewis said his office has worked todevelop organized responses knownas area contingency plans, in theevent of a spill, that are specificallytailored to regional needs andresources. The plans involve a specificchain of reaction plus managementefforts for recruiting volunteers fromthe public.

San Diego County’s sector of

responsibility under the plan alsoincludes the Catalina Islands, Arizonaand Nevada, Lewis said.

Although offshore drilling doesn’toccur in the San Diego region, Lewissaid there are two significant sourcesof potential spills off the coastline —both of which involve the shippingprocess.

“For several years, the oil industryhas been using what are called ultra-large vessels, which carry two to threemillion barrels each, to transport oilfrom the Middle East to a location 20or 30 miles off the shore of SanDiego,” Lewis said. “There, they trans-fer oil from the ultra-large vessels tolarge vessels, which are smaller andcan navigate into ports in Los Angelesand San Francisco.”

Although these transactions haveoccurred regularly throughout thelast decade without any mishaps,Lewis said, the potential for an inci-dent with “very unpleasant conse-quences” does exist.

“It doesn’t keep me or any of mycohorts awake at night, but you neverknow when that call might come,”Lewis said.

Such a spill would potentiallyrelease 100,000 to 200,000 barrelsof oil off the regional coastline.

“However, you could make an argu-ment for a super-catastrophic releaseof the entire contents of an ultra-largevessel,” Lewis said, referring to thetwo- and three-million barrel carriers.

After witnessing firsthand theresponse to the 2007 Costco Bus-son oil spill in San Francisco, JenKovecses — who transferred fromSan Francisco Baykeeper to SanDiego Coastkeeper earlier this year —speaks up about what La Jollans cando to keep their shorelines pristine.

“There are two levels that localresidents can act on,” Kovecsessaid. “There are day-to-day habits

and behavior that can keep oil out ofour water and reduce our depen-dency on oil. There are also somethings we can do in the unfortunateevent of a spill.”

Runoff into streets and drainagesystems carries oil into local watersources, she said.

“We can make sure we don’t

change our car’s oil in our drivewaysand address oil leaks quickly andappropriately,” Kovecses said.

Supporting San Diego’s robustalternative-energy industry alsohelps mitigate oil-related disasters,Kovecses said.

“Whatever ways we can incorpo-rate those alternate-energy sourcesinto our daily lives helps decreaseoil dependency,” she said. “That, inturn, reduces the risk of catastroph-ic events related to oil.”

After the 2007 spill in San Fran-cisco, Kovecses said, public outcryand willingness to help prompted

the state legislature and variousagencies to create official means toincorporate volunteers into theresponse system.

“There is now a draft volunteermanagement plan in California,including one for San Diego, thatcreates official avenues by whichvolunteers can help respond,”Kovecses said.

Prevention methods includecleaning beaches on a regularbasis.

“When a spill happens and oilreaches the beach, it’s much moredifficult to remove if there’s a lot ofdebris,” Kovecses said.

Volunteer San Diego, a localorganization that helps match indi-viduals with opportunities to serve

the community, has been involvedwith coordinating spontaneous vol-unteers in the event of an emergen-cy like an oil spill.

“If something happens, that’s areally great resource for residents toturn to and find out how they canhelp,” Kovecses said.

Kovecses said the public canalso contribute by donating to orga-nizations like San Diego Coastkeep-er and the National Audubon Soci-ety, which work to prevent and torespond to spills.

“There are lots of ways to getinvolved,” Kovecses said. “It’s a mat-ter of taking personal responsibility.”

“After what we saw in the Gulf, maybewe need to think about that. It doesn’tchange how we would respond, butthe shoreline impacts would be moresignificant.”

The response to such a spill hasbeen refined and reconsidered to forman elaborate ladder of reaction, butthe overall strategy can be summa-rized with one simple phrase: “Allhands on deck,” Lewis said.

Details include the rapid organiza-tion of a response management teamusing all state resources, includingmanpower and equipment, as wellas Coast Guard involvement. Dis-patch would begin within minutesand authorities would place animmediate request for additionalresources able to arrive within hours

or days, Lewis said.Other tactics would involve disper-

sants, mechanical recovery methodssuch as skimming, and burns, whichentail corralling the oil with boomsand burning it off — a tactic that hasbeen used extensively in the Gulf.

“The intent would be to try and pre-vent as much of that oil from reachingthe shoreline as we possibly could,”Lewis said.

Once the oil reaches the shoreline,the effects are always devastating forlocal wildlife, including birds, mam-mals and vegetation. But La Jolla isespecially vulnerable, Lewis said.

“La Jolla is famous for being aworst-case scenario for an oil spill,”Lewis said. “There’s so much rockyshoreline and sensitive habitat.Much of the area is not easily acces-sible, so it would be very difficult toclean up. We would do what wecould, but some of it would simply

be left for nature to deal with.”Birds — notably pelicans, gulls, cor-

morants, terns and shorebirds likesandpipers and plovers — wouldprobably be the most adversely affect-ed of all La Jolla’s diverse wildlife,Lewis said, because they rely on theirfeathers to keep warm. Sea otters,though not present in the localecosystem, often suffer the same fate.

“Hypothermia is a rapid killer ofthat wildlife,” he said.

Oil near shores would also harminter-tidal organisms, or thoseexposed during low tide and coveredduring high tide, such as algae andinvertebrates.

Despite the inevitable risks, Lewisexpressed confidence in the responsesystem currently in place.

“We have a very specifically staffed,trained, financed and mandated pro-gram for spill response,” he said.“Nobody does it quite like California.”

Green algae washes up on beachesBeachgoers throughout La Jolla and across San

Diego’s coastal communities have seen large deposits ofmurky green algae covering big patches of ocean waterin recent weeks.

“Green algae is not hazardous,” lifeguard Lt. AndyLerum said. “It’s a natural occurrence that happensfrom time to time when the ocean generates its own bac-teria. Algae forms on the surface of the water and getspushed by the wind, then accumulates along the shore.”

Lerum said the wind directions determine where thealgae deposits occur, and said wind patterns direct morealgae to La Jolla Shores than to other areas such as Mis-sion Beach to the south.

Efforts to turn the Village into a city revive

Many La Jolla residents have calledfor the Village to break off and becomeits own municipality for decades. ButCindy Greatrex, president of Indepen-dent La Jolla, the nonprofit civic orga-nization dedicated to that cause, saysit’s time to get serious.

At an Aug. 12 La Jolla Town Coun-cil (LJTC) meeting where sheaddressed the crowd as a guest speak-er, Greatrex cited dramatic growthand urban sprawl as reasons toreignite the group’s mission.

“San Diego is now the 8th largestcity in the U.S., with a population ofmore than 1.3 million,” Greatrex saidat the meeting. “La Jolla has about44,000 people. That’s a pretty quietvoice in a big place.”

“It’s safe to say that not all of ourneeds are going to be met when weneed them to be,” she added.

Greatrex argued that fire, police andlifeguard services — as well as public

schools — could be better managedon a local level. Also, she said, it wouldbe easier to enforce local planning anddevelopment codes through the LaJolla Planned District Ordinance(PDO).

“The idea is to separate, take careof ourselves and not have to gothrough the city for everything thatneeds to be done,” she said.

Greatrex assured the audience thatthe plan was not just a pipe dream andexplained that a clear path exists if theVillage wants to secede.

First, the measure would have to geton an election ballot, which could beaccomplished by obtaining signatureson a petition from 25 percent of LaJolla’s registered voters. Once on theballot, the measure would requireapproval from 50 percent-plus-one ofSan Diego voters.

The Local Agency Formation Com-mission (LAFCO), a state organizationdedicated to assisting with the forma-tion of local governments, is also be

involved in the process. Currently,Independent La Jolla is working withLAFCO to determine boundaries andcreate a map for the potential new city.

“Out of the entire process, this isprobably the longest part,” Greatrexsaid. “The mandate states that youcannot use existing maps, so you notonly have to determine the boundariesof the 92037 ZIP Code, you have tocreate a topography of every streetand alley in La Jolla.”

Some audience members raisedquestions about whether the city ofSan Diego would be willing to let LaJolla — and its tax dollars — go.

“We give a pretty decent amount ofmoney to the city, but not as much asyou would think,” Greatrex respond-ed, noting that La Jolla generates ahigh amount in property taxes, butnot from sales tax, hotel tax or publictransportation.

Still, La Jolla would be required to

Shortly after the initial La Jolla Park subdivision was laidout in 1887, La Jolla fathers Frank Botsford and GeorgeHeald decided their barren village lots would sell much bet-ter if they were enhanced with tree-lined streets. They accom-plished a landscaping feat for that time by setting out 2,000trees — yes, 2,000!

In “La Jolla Year by Year,” the first local history book,Howard Randolph recorded the planting of 1,000 palmsand another 1,000 cedar, eucalyptus and other tree vari-etals. A double line of palms went all the way down ProspectStreet. Girard Avenue and Herschel Avenue were lined witheucalyptus trees. The landmark line of Scripps Park palmswas planted along with cedars. Holes were dug for pine treesin a little round circle that was then called “hilltop,” whichis now known as Park Row park.

Many of Botsford’s and Heald’s trees died shortly afterthey were planted because La Jolla’s water supply was tooscarce to give them proper care. But the eucalyptus treesthrived to the point that, in the early 20th century, HerschelAvenue had a bower rivaling the iconic oak overhangs ofthe South. Today, a solitary eucalyptus remains on Herschelfrom the original planting more than 100 years ago. Sever-al eucalyptus trees also remain on Girard from that time,although most have either been removed or have fallen over.Similar fates have affected trees from the early times on Ivan-hoe, Wall and Silverado streets.

Although an argument could be made that La Jolla wouldhave been a more charming place with ocean breezes whis-pering through the old eucalyptus trees, debate also arisesabout the practicality of planting the trees to begin with.Eucalyptus trees are notorious for root rot, disease and otherhazardous conditions. Several of the old eucalyptus treeshave fallen over in recent years, damaging cars parkedbeneath them, including one in front of the post office onWall Street. Nonetheless, a few magnificent eucalyptus fromthe original planting in the La Jolla Park subdivision remain:two in the 7800 block of Ivanhoe on opposite sides of thestreet and several on Girard near Mary Star of the SeaCatholic Church.

The historic pines and palms from the early plantings havegenerally fared much better. The grand line of Washingtonpalms along Coast Boulevard that delineates Scripps Parkremains in apparent good health, and a recent donation tothe city of San Diego has made it possible for a new line ofpalms to replace the old ones when they need to be removed.A star pine was added to the park in 1936, on what wouldhave been Ellen Browning Scripps’ birthday.

The palms and the pine were planted largely through theefforts of Walter Lieber, a La Jolla resident from his arrivalin1904 through his death in 1945. Lieber, descending froma wealthy family in Philadelphia, contributed much to thebeautification and landscaping of La Jolla in the early years.When he first arrived here in 1904, he noted that La Jolla was“a place of tents and tent floors and piles of manure, tins andbottles.” He became passionate about planting trees andcleaning things up. A plaque on the flagpole in Park Rowpark, near the heart of the Village, commemorates his efforts,and today the wind still whistles peacefully through the oneof the pines he planted there.

A tale about trees

LETTER TO THE EDITORLifeguard towers can bepainted colorfully, tastefullyThis idea is a response to the recentstory on lifeguard towers with ads.

The beaches in Los Angeles have creat-ed a wonderful program called Portraits ofHope, where deserving children areinvolved in painting lifeguard towers.There are corporate sponsors and theirname is shown on a very small portion ofthe tower (see the Izod example here).

Having ads for soft drinks, bars, restau-rants and other products is not a goodvibe for our beaches!

When you compare our beaches to LA,we have the free parking, the better air,and overall, we have the coast with themost. Lets find a way to raise the moneywe need with colorful results.

Our local artists could also have theirwork on display through a new program.

Beach ads would cheapenbeautiful scenery

Beware unintended consequences:Should the San Diego City Councilapprove advertising at the city’s beaches,then in addition to blight, small enterpris-es such as ours may need to rethink theirpositions. In addition, the ongoing beachcleanup efforts of various nonprofits — ILove A Clean San Diego, CoastKeeper,Surfrider, San Diego River Foundation,etc. — may be undermined.

Dog Beach Dog Wash (in Ocean Beach),open over 17 years, has sponsored morethan 200 beach cleanups. We have paidfor and stocked more than 3 millioncleanup bags at a cost of more than

$50,000. We have never sought recog-nition for our community activism. How-ever, we will not participate if a corporatesponsor appears to take credit for ourefforts and the efforts of city beach-main-tenance crews and the thousands of vol-unteers who contribute to the cleanliness,health and safety of our beaches.

A corporate “sponsor” would need toprovide service and product (bags andtrash disposal) on an ongoing basis. It isnot enough to write a one-time check for$500,000.

We hope the City Council will rethinkthis short-sighted “solution” for the cur-rent deficits.

Visiting seal lover irked by human intimidation

I have visited La Jolla many times in thepast 20 years. Today I returned with my

kids and my brother who visited fromEurope, promising them to see hundredsof seals in the “Children’s Pool.”

My kids’ eyes were glowing with excite-ment and anticipation. But when wearrived, all we saw was a beach filled withpeople and a few scared seals in the waterthat didn’t dare to gather on “their” beachanymore. When we got closer, we sawactivists with petitions and signs thatread, “This is your beach. Use it. Don’t letthose animal lovers bully you away. Makeuse of your right to use the beach.”

Needless to say, we will not return toLa Jolla to see seals anymore. I don’t knowof another beach in this area that theseals can use. While I will take my kidsnow to Laguna Beach to swim, I wonderwhere the seals will go to breed. We hopethat San Diego wakes up before myfavorite attraction has disappeared.

“This will take an enormousamount of advocacy,” Greatrex said.

“But it can be done.”Greatrex estimated that the mea-

“We simply start again the follow-ing year,” she said.

Think of composer Frederic Chopinand no doubt a keyboard comes tomind, along with lots of notes, a bit ofbombast and numerous diaphanous,showy runs on which the soloisttakes flight.

La Jolla Music Society’s Summer-Fest, in progress now through Aug.27 at Sherwood Auditorium, exploresthe other side of Chopin by present-ing his chamber works, which arerarely performed. An all-Chopin, all-chamber works concert Saturday,Aug. 4, provided the impetus to clam-or for more or fewer performances,depending on one’s point of view.

Cellist Carter Brey and pianistChristopher O’Riley supplied a thor-oughly enjoyable reading of “Intro-duction and Polonaise Brillante forCello and Piano,” written when thePolish composer was 19. They werejoined by violinist Chee-Yun in a per-formance of the “Piano Trio in GMinor,” written the same year. Alsoperformed were two works arguably

Artists display creative works at the Athenaeum

The Athenaeum Music & Arts Library at1008 Wall St. has an interesting and highlyvaried competitive art exhibition on display.The show, which opened Aug. 6 and runsthrough Sept. 4, is titled “The Annual JuriedExhibition.” This is the 19th year theAthenaeum has held the event, which is openonly to artists who live, work or have exhibit-ed in San Diego.

John Wilson, the curator of the TimkenMuseum in Balboa Park, organized andjudged the entire event. He whittled downsome 800 submissions to the 72 pieces creat-ed by 35 artists who make up the show. Theart on display runs the gamut, from sculpture,fabric and mixed-media to painting and draw-ing. The pieces line the walls, are set on tablesand are even placed on the floor.

First place was awarded to K. V. Tomney forfive small minimalistic drawings of swimmingpools. Tomney, who lives near downtown SanDiego, was born on the East Coast but grew upin Northern California. He graduated with abachelor’s degree in fine arts from San DiegoState University (SDSU) and attended gradu-ate school at San Francisco State University(SFSU).

Second place went to Lea Dennis for a largewall hanging called “Gloves” that consists offive pairs of boxing gloves made of whitepaper, with ten photos of the same glovesunderneath. Dennis earned her bachelor’sdegree in fine arts from SDSU and did a resi-dency in Madrid, Spain.

Dennis said “Gloves” is “an experiment ded-icated to a principle or cause where there is noevidence that tremendous effort can result in

success.” Indeed, it would be difficult to win afight with paper boxing gloves! Miles McMil-lan, a La Jollan at home for summer vacationwho is currently a senior at the SteinhardtSchool of the Arts at New York University(NYU), liked the piece a great deal. He said itwas “visually appealing and very delicate.”

Third place in the competition went to ElenaLomakin, who had two pieces in the show.One was an arrangement of different-sizebooks without covers, which was placed artis-tically on the floor. The second piece was avery clever arrangement of pressed wild flow-ers which stuck out of the top of pages of cov-

erless books, which were tied together withstrings. Lomakin was born and raised inMoscow, Russia, where she earned a bache-lor’s degree in art history and a master’s inEnglish. She also studied studio art at SFSU.Lomakin said her fascination with using oldbooks in art projects began “when a very oldbook fell apart in my hands and revealed somevery beautiful components that would nor-mally have remained hidden from view.”

A number of artists were awarded honor-able mentions, including Peter Gise, for a piece

The kids are off to college thismonth, and for the first time manyempty nesters are faced with the pos-sibility of repurposing their child’s for-mer bedroom. Experts say that insteadof harboring memories from the past,empty-nesters should utilize the spaceby focusing on personalized comfort.

Jennifer Fox-Armour, owner of MyOwn Space in La Jolla, suggests swap-ping the children’s stuffed animals andmusic posters for something more per-manent.

“It’s all about investment,” she said.“Customers [looking to redecoratethose rooms] want to have their furni-ture forever, not just replace the kidsstuff with more transitional pieces.”

The most common redesigns areoften the most practical, like convert-ing an empty bedroom into an officeor guest bedroom. Sheryl Jackman ofthe Jackman Group, a design and con-struction company based in Corona-do, suggests focusing on building aspace comfortable enough for person-

al leisure, yet practical enough forextended family visits. “[Families thatare ready for updates] want the hometo be a family compound so kids cancome back,” said the mother andgrandmother. Slipcovers that varywith the season are practical choices.

The options are truly endless, espe-cially if empty-nesters choose piecesthat can be adjusted to fit multipleoccasions. Fox-Armour suggests apiece like the Duetto daybed from Flou,a versatile bed-settee that can be con-verted from a sofa to a single bed withminimal effort.

Bedrooms can double as a guestspace in preparation for the chil-dren’s return and also as a personalspace for those ready to invest in boththe look and comfort of stylish liv-ing. Parents should shift their atten-tion toward their own desires anddecorate using furnishings that willlast a lifetime.

attributed to Chopin, variations on “Nonpiu Mesta” from Rossini’s “La Ceneren-tola” and “Grand Duo Concertante” onthemes from Meyerbeer’s “Robert le dia-ble,” which puts one in mind of Gilbertand Sullivan. And why not? Gilbert andSullivan’s operettas spoofed Meyerbeer’soperas, among others.

The evening’s most compelling perfor-mance was Brey and O’Riley’s spiritedplaying of “Sonata in G Minor for Celloand Piano, Opus 46,” the last publishedwork of Chopin’s brief life.

On Friday, Aug. 20, SummerFest presents“Premieres and Reprises,” performances ofWest Coast premieres and other commis-sioned works: “Night Thoughts” (2005) bywell-known pipa player Wu Man, who per-

One hour prior to the 7:30 p.m. perfor-mance, ticket holders may attend a perfor-mance of Antonin Dvorak’s “String Quar-tet No. 14 in A-flat Major,” performed byThe Hausmann Quartet, which this sea-son becomes the Joseph Fisch/Joyce Axel-rod Quartet in Residence at San DiegoState University.

The concert on Saturday, Aug. 21devotes itself to “Chopin’s Paris” and pre-sents works by Chopin as well as his con-temporaries Rossini, Liszt, Schumann and

Mendelssohn. In a flash of good news,Mumbai-born, San Diego-nurtured, Uni-versity of California, San Diego graduatePriti Gandhi saves the day for Summer-Fest, performing for previously announcedCharlotte Hellekant, who was unable toobtain a visa in time. Gandhi, who debut-ed the role of Musetta with San DiegoOpera last season, performs Chopin’s Pol-ish Songs for Voice and Piano and RobertSchumann’s Three Songs after Byron’s“Hebraic Melodies.” Pianist John Novacekand harpist Deborah Hoffmann accom-pany her, respectively.

“A healthy smile communicates youth, con-fidence and overall attractiveness, leaving apositive impression on those you are workingwith,” explains La Jolla dentist Dr. TracyTaddey. “Radiant smiles can be achieved inseveral ways, ranging from simple and inex-pensive procedures to more elaborate cosmet-ic dentistry.”

They offer several afford-able options to improve your smile, includingZOOM in-office bleaching, home bleaching,and simple bonding with composite white fill-ings to repair chips and wear – all of whichcan take years off a smile and make a dra-matic change with minimally invasive dentalwork.

Veneers or cosmetic all-porcelain crownscan also create an extraordinary smilemakeover. These restorations can slightlystraighten misaligned teeth and instantlybrighten previously dull teeth with crownsmade of state-of-the-art porcelain.

“A healthy smile stays with us our entirelives and is an investment worth smilingabout,” said Dr. John Taddey.

adjacent California Building

San Diego’s beloved Old Globe The-atre, having endured the ravages ofboth time and conflagration, cele-brated its 75th anniversary recentlywith a gala headed by a quintuplet ofgorgeous chairladies. Valerie Coop-er, Sandy Redman, Debra Turner,Karen Cohn and Deni Jacobs, alllongtime supporters having deepinvolvements with the Balboa Parktheater, threw a party that was a dra-matic success both in terms of enter-taining the guests and in raising seri-ous money for the organization.

Act I was a two-hour social gath-ering in the flowery Alcazar Gardens.Held in beautiful weather, the cock-tail party offered various libationsand a veritable feast of substantialhors d’oeuvres, including two kindsof shrimp and two of crab, plussushi, veggies and fine fromages. Anaerial act added entertainment.There was plenty to ward off hungerfor folks about to head into the the-ater for a couple of hours …

Inside the Globe, it was businessfirst, with a live auction featuringdiverse and unique items. Amongthem was a private concert in one’s

own home with the famed HersheyFelder, creator of a series of plays inwhich he portrayed such musicalgeniuses as Beethoven, Chopin andGeorge Gershwin. Offered with cater-ing for 50 and a piano (if needed …),two such concerts went for a total of$55,000. The pianist himselfspurred the bidding by speaker-phone, calling from his Paris resi-dence (where it was 4 a.m.), cajolingthe auction audience and substantial-ly improving the bottom line.

Next, guests were given the oppor-tunity to pledge contributions to theGlobe’s education programs. Mari-on Ross (one of the gala’s three hon-orary chairs, along with AudreyGeisel and Darlene Shiley) is current-ly performing in the Globe’s produc-tion of “The Last Romance,” oppo-site her real-life husband, PaulMichael. Marion pledged a week ofher salary, but when a voice from thecrowd inquired as to the amount, sheanswered, “A lady never tells.”

Darlene was the only honorarychair not present. It was announcedwith sadness that her husband, Don-ald, had died that very day after yearsof deteriorating health. The couplewere known for exceptional philan-thropy to the Globe and many otherlocal causes over the years (in fact,the stage from which this announce-ment was made is named for them).They had previously pledged a con-tribution of $100,000 for thatnight’s gala, and it was announcedthat Darlene had added another$100,000 that night.

Though given the opportunity,none of the guests matched that

$100,000 gift, perhaps out ofrespect for the Shileys’ generosity.But two $75,000 donations werequickly offered, plus enough othersto bring the evening’s total to over$1 million.

Next came the Globe’s presenta-tion of “Robin and the 7 Hoods.” Theentertaining new musical, featuringtalented performers and strong voic-es, runs through Aug. 22. Theevening concluded with dinnerunder the stars.
