What really happened when they closed Marineland?

CONtENtS By maureen megoWan / re/max Palos Verdes execs Marineland of the Pacific, which opened in 1954, for many years provided the primary tourist attraction in Rancho Palos Verdes. the attractions of Marineland included the 320-foot Skytower soaring into the blue oceanside sky at the parks entrance, the splashy acrobatics of Orky and Corky the killer whales, Bubbles the pilot whale, and snorkeling the curved, fauxrocky recesses of baja Reef amid rainbows of tropical fish. Marineland was only the second oceanarium in the United States when it opened to the public Aug. 28, 1954. In 1986, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, the publishing giant which then owned Sea World in San Diego, was in the process of rapidly expanding the Sea World enterprise throughout the nation, and was in desperate need of proven, successful breeding pairs of killer whales in order to supply their new Sea World locations with their headline act, Shamu, the killer whale. Harcourt had been denied a permit to capture additional killer whales in the wild and was therefore limited to acquiring killer whales already in captivity. Harcourt approached the owners of Marineland which was then struggling financially, with an offer to purchase their star attractions, Corky and Orky, who had proven to be a successful breeding pair of killer whales. the owners of Marineland were unwilling to part with them, and instead offered to sell the entire Marineland park. Orky, the larger male, at Marineland show.

In public testimony to the City Council of Rancho Palos Verdes, company officials stated that their intentions in acquiring the park were to renovate and keep the park open. they really only wanted Orky and Corky, however, and planned to shut the park down and to immediately sell the land to an Arizona developer, and quickly did so after closing the park. Harcourt completed their purchase of the park in late 1986, and within a few weeks after the purchase, moved Corky and Orky to their Sea World Park in San Diego in the middle of the night without any prior notice to the public, and closed Marineland, claiming that the park was going to cost more money to renovate than they originally estimated. Unfortunately, Orky, the male, died two years later in 1988, however Corky is still alive (she is now believed to be about 40 years old and the oldest of the seven killer whales in San Diego) and performing daily at Sea World in San Diego. She gave birth to seven calves, however all died soon after birth, with the oldest living only for 46 days. Palos Verdes residents, to this day, mourn the loss of this wonderful community asset, which fortunately, however, has been replaced by the beautiful new 5 star terranea Resort.

SPOTLIGHT ON MANHATTAN VILLAGE

Manhattan Beach, CA Nestled into a secluded, guard-gated area of Manhattan Beach, Manhattan Village is an exclusive collection of 400 custom town homes and court homes, representing the finest in beach living. The development was built mainly between 1983 and 1987 with some newer Estate Homes that were more recently constructed. The community boasts a main pool and spa area, four additional spas within the community, and a quiet family atmosphere. In addition to a seven member Board of Directors, the community is governed by a variety of active committees. This type of community is unique in the South Bay especially the beach cities. It is extremely rare to find a gated community and conformity in the area, as most of the area is made up of 50 and 60 year old tracts that have been partially redeveloped. The village has been very popular for newly placed L.A. Athletes for many reasons. SportStar Relocation, a real estate and concierge company owned and operated by Ed Kaminsky, often receives continual requests from their clients to find special properties throughout the country. The proximity to the training center in El Segundo and LAX, makes it an easy commute, and the gated/private aspect solidifies it as a great choice for athletes and their families. When players are on the road or taking time off in the off season, there is comfort knowing there is constant security in the area. Manhattan Beach is not known to have celebrity stalkers or paparazzi but the added defense of a guard gated community is definitely a plus. Ed Kaminsky is a local realtor at Shorewood Realtors and represents many of the athletes that buy and sell in the South Bay. One of the biggest draws of the community is the serenity and beauty that exudes throughout. This is a low density community and only allows for 8.7 homes per acre. With this type of density you have plenty of green and open space; lush landscaping adds to the beauty of the area. Besides the pool and activity areas, there is also a private entrance to Manhattan Village Shopping plaza that has everything you need from great restaurants, a grocery store, movie theatres, shopping mall and nearly every bank you can think of, all within walking distance or a very short drive. Although the adjacent golf course is not a part of the development it does offer nearby recreation for all: for some lucky homeowners it offers great vistas on the course from the homes. The golf course is a 9-hole course with mainly par 3s making it a perfect place to practice your short game. The community was developed with 3 distinct property types: The Estate Homes are state-of-the-art in scale, in appointments, and in design. The floor plans are open and additionally designed for family function. Three and four bedroom single-family homes in five imaginative floor plans. A choice of Mediterranean, Tudor, French or Cape Cod motifs. The privacy of each street entrance is enhanced by the subtle blending of landscape and masonry, contributing to lovely neighborhoods. Many of them are located on quiet culde-sacs. The sizes typically range from approximately 2000 sqft up to over 3100 sqft. The Town Homes achieve that successful balance of function and form. They win lasting appreciation from homeowners. Traditional side-by-side town homes with numerous, premium corner units. Single or two-story floor plans, many with golf course views. The garages are on the same level as the main entrance to the home. Each home has its own private patio, handcrafted masonry fireplace, and large master suites with spacious private baths and closets The sizes range from just over 1400 sqft to just over 2000 sqft. The Court Homes offer four distinctive variations on the attached living concept. A unique cluster arrangement provides every home with its own landscaped, semi-private courtyard. A showcase of breathtaking split-level design, with private entrance garages tucked under the living area. Each home has a cozy wood burning fireplace, gourmet kitchen, and large master suites with those spacious private baths and closets. The sizes range from approximately 1400 sqft to just under 2000 sqft. So whether you want a cozy 2 bedroom court home or a private single family residence, the choices are available, the privacy is second to none, and the value is well protected as the demand has always remained constant. For more information on floor plans and availability or to showcase your Village property to the best buyers available contact Ed Kaminsky directly at 310-427-241 * Although price per square foot can be a base for valuation it can range dramatically based on upgrades to the unit, location within the development and style and design of the specific property.

TEACHABLE MOMENTS ON THE BASKETBALL COURT
by pamela coranTe-Hansen
LakErS koBE Bryant confErS with aSSiStant coach Jim cLEamonS
If your schedules too packed to earn that Ph.D. in philosophy, spend a half an hour with Los Angeles Lakers assistant coach Jim Cleamons. Youll come away wiser and ready for the second half of basketball season. Quick to quash rumors that he is a Rhodes Scholar, Cleamonss quiet wisdom transcends the conventional and leaves little doubt as to the source of his success as a teacher and mentor. South Bay Digs had the honor of speaking with Cleamons on a resplendent Manhattan Beach afternoon. In the process, we learned a few things about life, love and the pursuit of excellence.
(left to right: lakerS coaching Staff: aSSiStantS Jim cleamonS, Brian Shaw, heaD coach phil JackSon, aSSiStant frank hamBlen)
you had a great win last night. What are the key factors for a higher percentage of wins in the second part of the season? Just prior to the All Stars break we lost three games in a row. Any time you lose three games in a row in Los Angeles, especially with the Lakers organization, you dont want to go out in public. youd be surprised how many owners and bosses we have. Everyone wants to know whats wrong with their team. Fans have to understand that we want to win as much as they want us to win. A lot of what you do in sports, youre required to do as a team; its not an individual competition. You have to coexist and sometimes theres a level of mental fatigue. These arent excuses, its just the nature of the business. We as a team know when were not performing well. Were hopeful that well ride our ship after the All Stars break and play the way we know were capable of playing. you mentioned mental fatigue. certainly intellect is a part of the game. How do you think your academic achievements influenced your ability to lead a team? My senior year in college I was extremely fortunate to be named Athlete of year at my university. Academically, I am fortunate and blessed. I just try to do a good job. but I am not a Rhodes Scholar. Lets nip that rumor in the bud.
got it. Were all about accuracy here. so how are academics and athletics related, in your opinion? I had a really strong mother, aunt and uncle. If you didnt cut the mustard academically, there was no way in the world youd have an opportunity to participate athletically. I remember the first time I got a B on my report card. You would have thought the sky was falling. I was punished for six weeks. When I brought home that b in reading, my mom, who was an educator, made me read every night after dinner for six weeks. At the time I saw it as a punishment, but now that I am a parent, I realize the dedication and love [my mother had for me]. In her own stern way, she was giving love to me. I see athletics and academics as forces that work in conjunction with each other to help you add a certain amount of caring and passion to whatever you do in your life. it seems youve channeled that combination of discipline and dedication in your work with youth in the community. I partnered with the brotherhood Crusade to do a summer camp called books and basketball. young people come to learn basketball, but actually we teach them more about academics and life. We teach them about science and diversity. the younger kids take classes in chess,

etiquette and manners, also financial literacy. They still have time for young daughters, shopping is important. the access to shopping in the basketball. We try to show them that theres more to life than sports. South bay is tremendous. Plaza El Segundo is a crown jewel. We not only Especially with basketball, you use the sport; dont let the sport use you. have shopping in downtown Manhattan beach, you also have Del Amo All too often in these communities, young people grow up thinking that and the Galleria. Then there are the restaurants. For someone whos on by the magic of television, careers are made. they dont understand the road 90 percent of the time, when Im home, I dont want to travel far the hard work and dedication that takes place before you turn on the to get to the services I need. television. Its my belief that if you expose them to what happens behind the scenes, it will help in the long run to broaden their horizons. young Who was your real estate agent? people are resilient, and their curiosity about what happens around them Ed Kaminsky is the agent my wife and I work with exclusively. Ed does is boundless. We tell them to ask questions of the adults and people who what most successful people do: are their mentors and teachers, to He listens. He is a problem-solver use the resources available to them lakerS aSSiStant coach Jim cleamonS who addresses whatever challenges haS 10 nBa championShip ringS to enhance their lives. there may be. A lot of the Lakers use Ed for their relocations. How much of what you instill in the kids translates to your effectiveness as a coach? One of the reasons I got into education to begin with is that I enjoy the light that shines when a young person really understands. I hesitate most of the time to tell people that Im a coach; I like to refer to what I do as teaching. I see the basketball floor as a classroom. youre using certain parts of your brain to do an athletic action in the same way youd use other parts of the brain for English, history or biology. It all works hand in hand. As a teacher I [help students] reduce the stress of learning through practice. [this applies] not only in the classroom as a student, but also in the classroom on the basketball floor in front of thousands of people. If you can do it in practice, you can do it on the basketball floor. With the right heart, the right mind and a spirit of collaboration with your coaches, teachers and teammates, you can win. And winning doesnt always mean championships, but it means doing the best you can in each situation. switching gears, your career has enabled you to live all over the u.s. How did you choose manhattan beach and what do you like most about living here? When Phil Jackson accepted the coaching job in June 1999 and asked me to join the staff, I had no idea where in L.A. I wanted to live. the Lakers were moving to [a new practice facility in] El Segundo and moving into the Staples Center. I had a newborn child and I didnt want to spend a lot of my time commuting. My wife and I looked at various communities and settled on Manhattan beach. the reputation of the Manhattan beach schools was one of the things that attracted us. Also, with a wife and two if you had the chance to redo any decision youve made in your life, what would it be? We had a gorgeous home in Manhattan beach. We both really enjoyed it, but in the late 2004 season, Phil was not re-signed by the Lakers and I accepted a job in New Orleans. So we sold this home. As I look back, we would have been better off if we had stayed. When we got to New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina hit. We had bought a gorgeous home there and we lost that house. I moved for the right reasons, but financially and emotionally, moving my family from a home we all loved and then experiencing Katrina was traumatic, but we survived. It makes you thankful you have family. after sitting with you these past 30 minutes, its easy to see where your success comes from. you have this tremendous sense of whats important. I deal with people every day that have an effect on my life, but on whom I have no effect. If I cant communicate, and if they dont want to do what I want them to do, what am I supposed to do? Pitch a fit? It doesnt solve the problem. you learn to control those things you can control, and what you cant, you give back to God. but you still try to work through it. If each person helped another, the world would be a much better place. the person that you help may not be able to give back to you what you gave to him, but your blessing is going to come back from someone you dont know yet. this is one of the things that athletics has taught me. People talk about Phils Zen. Zen is just being in the moment. So if we cherish every moment that we have and do the best we can, we all can be successful.

HERMOSA BEACH YOUVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT ONE-OF-A-KIND COLLECTABLENOW YOUVE FOUND IT.
Theres no other property like it on The Strand, and there never will be.
ELEVATE YOUR PERSPECTIVE Theres more to life at 2909 The Strandmuch, much more. With three above-ground floors (versus typical two) each boasting almost 50 feet of expansive frontage, (instead of the typical 24) plus a full size roof deck youll enjoy 300% more frontage than the average Strand home in Hermosa Beach.
LIVE LARGER Here at 2909 The Strand, the expansive views are rivaled only by the expansive living space that make the most of its extraordinarily large 6,611 square-foot-lot. Make yourself, your family and your guests at home with 7 luxurious bedrooms, 7 fully appointed baths, and 3 half baths including a separate housekeepers quarters. Guest will enjoy having their own private guest wing each bedroom with a walk-in closet, and each bathroom with a Whirlpool tub.
MOVIE NIGHT WILL NEVER BE THE SAME Grab the popcorn and head downstairs for a private screening of the latest blockbuster or the big game. There youll find an enormous family room that doubles as a home theater, complete with beach-themed hand-painted window shades that automatically lower for optimal viewing. Belly up to the bamboo-themed full bar for a cocktail. Or crack open a vintage stored in your 500-bottle capacity wine locker. You may never buy another movie ticket again.
CELEBRATE UNDER THE STARS Take the party higher and bigger on your rooftop deck, the largest on The Strand. Perfect for a quiet afternoon of sun-basking and spa-soaking, your roof deck can also accommodate up to 110 guest mingling among the mature-growth plantings and under the stars. Equipped with ample storage, refrigerator, sink, grill, plenty of chairs, chaise lounges and tables, as well as built-in teak benches and platforms, your roof deck is the ultimate setting for the ultimate gathering.
THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE DETAILS Can a home be a work of art? It can if its 2909 The Strand. Youll notice the incredible attention to detail and artisanship the instant you step through the gated courtyard and into a beautifully landscaped setting. From the honed marble floors and 6-foot hand-crafted chandelier in the entrance, to the Venetian plaster and imported Japanese rice paper on the walls, to the staircase rails resembling artistically woven twigs, to the original artwork displayed throughout, you immediately know youve arrived someplace very special. And very rare.
