Local School Districts Respond to Connecticut School Shooting

BY JIM E. WINBURN Local school district officials in the San Gabriel Valley have been reviewing school safety procedures in light of last week’s Newtown, Conn., school shooting.

The first reaction has been to assure parents and students that adequate and sensible safety precautions are in place to prevent or minimize such a tragedy.

But the immediate response has been to provide counseling programs for children who look to their own school as a refuge from violence.

“I think the other tragedy in this is that for many kids school is a sanctuary,” said Pasadena Unified School District spokesman Adam Wolfson. “School is seen as a place where you can have a safe period of Please see page 11

Dorothy's Place Whatever

By Dorothy Denne (I received a request to rerun this column from last year. It was only one request but, my schedule being what it is, it seemed an excellent idea. I still have the CD and my thoughts remain the same.)

I’m listening to a CD I made from an old, out-of-date 33 1/3 record. Perry Como is dreaming of a White Christmas. I too am dreaming. I remember the White Christmases. I was young then. I didn’t mind cleaning the ice from my windshield or skidding into a snow bank.

I thought that was just what you did.

That was before I moved to California where you do your Christmas shopping in shirt sleeves. Where a modest rainstorm is considered winter weather.

Christmas has so many meanings, so many memories, so many traditions. I’m somewhat distressed that the

Christmas season has become the Holiday season.

I’m considered broad-minded for one of my generation.

I’m loving and accepting. I don’t mind expanding horizons and celebrating the traditions of other cultures.

But, please, excuse me as I want to hang on to my own. I like the picture of a baby Jesus lying in a manger.

The wisemen and the lowly animals. The fir tree. The holly and the mistle-toe. The poinsettias and the fruit cakes.

Merely symbols? Yes. But, more than symbols they are traditions.

When I was a child, Santa Claus came down my chimney even when I didn’t have one. I knew he was coming, no matter what.

He would get in somehow.

Sometimes he would bring but one present, at best only a few. That was all Mom and Dad could afford to pay him for. It didn’t matter.

Santa and the Baby Jesus kind of melted together.

They symbolized love and joy and good feelings. I liked that when I was young. I like that now.

Happy Holidays is a

wonderful greeting. It is very modern. Merry Christmas goes back to my roots. It brings a feeling that little else in the world of today can kindle.

I’d like to celebrate Christmas as Christmas. Other holidays can have their say separately. Let those of us who wish have our memories of yore and share in the feelings they bring.

Whether it be Away In A Manger or Jingle Bells, or one of other cultural traditions, let’s remember love, peace and brotherhood.

As we each remember our past and look to our future, let’s join hands in our present. Let’s ask our higher power, whomever he or she may be, to bring us the grace of love, acceptance and understanding. Let’s join hands and hearts and have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season.

I finish this column as Andy Williams sings, “I’ll be home for Christmas.” No matter how far away you have roamed, in your heart may you be home for Christmas or the Holidays. Whatever!

Caltech Theater of the Arts Does a Superb Job of Presenting MATE, the Life Story of Chess Genius Bobby Fischer

By Harry Sneider This is a season of theater, musicals, movies, and family get togethers. Recently, I read in a paper that Caltech Theater was to present the life story of my close friend Bobby Fischer.

I was very eager to see what was actually said by these Caltech geniuses. This well written play by Lolly Ward surprised me by the detail as well as the casting of Bobby and his various friends.

Kelvin Bates played the young Bobby and did a very good job. There was a scene that I really enjoyed when Bobby’s mother Regina, played by superb actress Kathryn Bikle, scolded Bobby for not doing well in Argentina in a major chess tournament. Bobby had experienced his first relationship with a girl played by the beautiful Ariel O’Neill.

Knowing Bobby I can see why he lost his concentration looking at this lovely girl.

There was another scene that was memorable when Bobby was picked up in Pasadena by the police thinking he was a bank robber. Ben Solish and Ben Sveinbjornsson had a realistic feeling in how they handled Bobby with handcuffs and a dark jail cell. Bobby wrote a book about his trials and tribulations in the jail.

I have a copy of his book called “I was Tortured in the Pasadena Jailhouse”.

Herbert W. Armstrong, played by Stephen Kellogg, gave us a one sided impression that Bobby was used by

the church for financial gain.

Knowing Mr. Armstrong, he asked me to help this chess genius who was searching for answers in his personal life with encouragement, fitness training, and time with families that really did care for Bobby. Stephen did a nice job as best as he could with the information that he had about Mr. Armstrong.

The older Bobby, played by Steve Collins, did an excellent job of portraying Bobby in his later years.

Zita, played by Rochelle Weber, was an impressive statuesque young woman who motivated Bobby to continue his world championship training in chess. Having met most of these characters in real life, it made the play very memorable and interesting to me. My feeling is if this was put into a musical a la Broadway style with Motown music and having the performers sing the lyrics rather than say them it may

be a Broadway hit.

Bryan Brophy, who directed the play, did a superb job in a very small theater, the Armory Center for the Arts on North Raymond in Pasadena. The theater was packed with geniuses. I met many from JPL and Caltech that were heavily involved in math, physics, and engineering, including the projects that take us to the moon and Mars.

Lolly is working on developing this play further as she is getting more information about the real Bobby Fischer, his friends, and family. Having worked with Bobby for many years I feel very fortunate to have been a part of his life. Look forward to seeing more plays, movies, books, and conversation about this greatest player in chess who ever lived. Harry Sneider can be reached at 626-355-8964 or harrysneider@earthlink. net.

Open Letter A Message from California’s Top Homeland Security Advisor & State Superintendent of Public Instruction The following letter was received by Beacon Media from State Superintendent of Education Tom Torlakson in an effort to help communities and schools throughout California deal locally with the tragedy in Connecticut last Friday.

No words can adequately express the overwhelming grief that we are all feeling after the horrific tragedy that unfolded at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton, Connecticut this past week.

Our hearts are heavy as we think of the innocence of the lives lost and the valiant efforts of teachers, school leaders and public safety professionals to protect them.

We are continuing to keep the families and loved ones of those lost in our thoughts and prayers. And, as leaders for California’s public instruction and homeland security agencies, we want to reassure everyone in our education community that the safety of our students and staff remains our highest priority.

Regardless of what motivated the shooting in Connecticut, it’s important for all of us to take another close look at the safety plans and

security procedures we have in place to reduce the risks on our school campuses and in our workplaces. We know that many of you are already working closely with your district leaders, campus safety teams and local law enforcement agencies to ensure we are maintaining the safest learning environments possible. We applaud you for keeping safety a top priority.

Through your combined efforts, many of you are exemplary leaders of safety planning and preparedness and have readily shared those best practices with the education community.

We are writing you today to emphasize the importance of taking the time to talk with your staff and leadership about school safety in light of this tragic event.

Whether it’s a review of your security procedures or special outreach to teachers, parents

and staff, any steps you can take now to be prepared for any emergency are extremely important. Some of the most heinous plots to do harm to our schools and communities have been thwarted by the simple actions of alert and prepared individuals.

The California Emergency Management Agency (Cal EMA) has compiled a range of resources from the federal, state and local level to help you. These are only a starting point to help find what might help you stay on top of the best practices in school safety and preparedness.

You can find those resources here: http://bit.ly/schoolsafe or on the Cal EMA website at www.calema.ca.gov.

Thank you for your continued dedication to educational excellence and the safety of all California’s staff, students and parents.

Group to Hold Press Conference Friday

By Terry Miller

Despite swelling nationwide contemplation on the importance of gun control after Friday’s mass shooting at a Connecticut elementary school, the National Rifle Association’s silence had been deafening. That is, until now.

The National Rifle Association on Tuesday broke its silence on last Friday’s mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., saying they want to “help make sure this never happens again.”

As of Monday evening the largest and most powerful gun-rights lobbying group in the U.S. had not posted anything to its website since Friday morning, when a lone gunman entered Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton, Connecticut and killed 26 people, 20 of them children.

Film maker Michael Moore said “The long term

solution to reducing gun deaths is to change our society from one of perpetual war and fear to one of peace and tolerance.

The short term solution?

A law immediately banning semi-automatic weapons & mega-clips. Must have license to own gun. Must pass mental exam.” Moore sent in an email message to his followers.

NRA had posted no tweets. It made no mention of the shooting on its website. None of its leaders hit the media circuit Sunday to promote its support of the Second Amendment as the nation mourns the latest mass shooting victims and opens a brand new debate over gun restrictions. On Monday, the NRA offered no refutation as 300 anti-gun protesters marched to its Capitol Hill office.

Facing new restrictions

on gun ownership in the tragedy’s aftermath, theNRA said it would hold “a major news conference” in Washington on Friday.

“The National Rifle Association of America is made up of four million moms and dads, sons and daughters— and we were shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the news of the horrific and senseless murders in Newtown,” the organization said in a statement emailed to news outlets.

Twitter users have been steadfast, protesting the organization with hashtags like NoWayNRA. The protestors who gathered outside the NRA’s lobbying headquarters on Capitol Hill Monday chanted, “Shame on the NRA” and waving signs declaring “Kill the 2nd Amendment, Not Children” and “Protect Children, Not Guns.”

El Monte Police Officers Association Honors Moose Lodge On Sunday December 16, the El Monte Police Officer’s Association presented the El Monte Moose Lodge with an award recognizing their service, dedication, and commitment to the residents of El Monte since 1955.

The El Monte Moose has actively supported many families in need, especially the children of the community. They actively raise funds every year for cancer research by hosting the area Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society. They have formed a K-9 Association that provides for current and retired police K-9s. The Moose has partnered with the El Monte Police Officer’s Association to help support events that benefit those in need. Moose Lodge member Nancy

Kennon has also diligently served as a member of the El Monte Police Officer’s Association Auxiliary.

El Monte Police Officer’s Association President, Ben Lowry, made the presentation to the Moose Lodge during a Christmas party for children of the community that was hosted by the Moose at no cost to the children or

families. E.M.P.O.A. President Lowry said “The El Monte Police Officer’s Association and Auxiliary’s motto is Solidarity with the Community. We feel that part of fulfilling our motto is recognizing other excellent community oriented organizations, groups, and individuals that make El Monte great.”

PUSD Issues Statement on School Shooting in Connecticut Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) Chief Academic Officer and Administrator in Charge Dr. Brian McDonald issued the following statement regarding the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut today: “All of us in the Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) are horrified by the tragedy that occurred today in Newtown, Connecticut. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of Sandy Hook Elementary School.”

“The safety of our students is the top priority at PUSD. The district takes many precautions to ensure that students remain safe while at school. All schools have school safety plans that detail the proper response to a variety of emergency scenarios. Students participate in shelter in place

and other emergency drills several times a year. PUSD campuses are closed campuses and any visitors to a school are required by state law to register when walking onto campus. The district has a zero tolerance policy regarding weapons on campus. PUSD can also activate its emergency operations center at a moment’s notice to coordinate emergency response efforts.

Finally, we maintain a very close relationship with the Pasadena Police Department, Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department and the Sierra Madre Police Department to provide immediate assistance should any problems arise.”

“Crisis counseling and support is available to PUSD students in the wake of this tragedy. Although there is no threat to any PUSD campus, all principals have

been instructed to take precautionary measures to ensure student safety. We also encourage staff and principals to re-familiarize themselves with emergency and security policies in light of this incident.”

“To keep people informed in an emergency, the district is able to send critical information via text message. Text PUSD to 888777 to receive this service from the district.”

“PUSD recognizes the tremendous trust that parents place in us when they send their children to school each day. We take this responsibility very seriously.

I want to reassure students and parents that our schools are safe.”

“Please join me and the entire PUSD family in mourning the loss of the innocent victims in this senseless tragedy.

At the same time, experienced competition manager Mike Atkinson was named the track’s Race Director. Atkinson has been working behind the scenes with representatives of the new Kern County Raceway Park track to put together a common set of technical rules which will allow racers in a number of divisions to compete fairly at both tracks.

“We know that we’re starting out a couple of laps behind,” Cohan candidly admitted. “But we also know that we have the support of a great number of former racers, sponsors, and most importantly, our fans who have stood by waiting for this track to come back on line again. We’ll really need everyone’s good will and support, and we’ll be trying very hard to return the favor by running a facility that always puts the customer first.”

“We’ve re-named the entire property ‘Irwindale Event Center’ to better reflect the wide range of public and private events that can be accommodated here and invite everyone to join us in what we feel will be a great new era of operation for this venue.

Corporations, businesses small and large, competitors, individual fans, everyone: you are all welcome, if you want to be a part of this facility, we’ll find a place for you.” Cohan concluded.

Cohan’s announcement also indicated that long-time employee Bob Klein has been named the event center’s Vice President/Chief Operating Officer, and that veteran publicist Doug Stokes would be re-joining the facility on the first of the year as the Vice President of Communications. Both men will report directly to Jim Cohan.

EMUHSD Medical Assistant Program Awarded Golden Bell

By Anne Donofrio-Holter The El Monte Union High School District (EMUHSD) has been awarded a Golden Bell from the California School Boards Association (CSBA) for its Medical Assistant CTE (Career and Technical Education) program.

Under the direction of Dr. Juan Ramirez, the program provides rigorous academic and technical preparation, relevant learning opportunities and the supportive relationships of educators for future health care professionals. Course content includes medical terminology, ethics, introduction to the medical field, patient exams, blood drawing, lab tests, injections, patient care skills, appointment scheduling, patient communications and job search skills.

“The goals of the program are the mastery of CTE Medical Assistant skills and related academic competencies, real world experience and aspirational, yet realistic, career planning,” said Ramirez.

“Students are cross-trained in clinical, laboratory and administrative

procedures and gain in-depth experience in essential workplace behaviors including clear, professional oral and written communication, use of industry technology, safety, problem solving and ethical practice.”

Students are also trained to perform requisite office procedures and graduate with “advanced” proficiencies, as defined by ESLR (Expected Schoolwide Learning Result) scoring guides.

“The District understands the challenges highpoverty students face during the transition from high school to higher education and the world of work and supports them every step of the way,” said Ramirez.

“Time is devoted to goal setting, higher education and career planning.”

Practice in resume writing, job application completion and mock interviews are part of the curriculum leading up to securing an internship.

According to Ramirez, a student is considered successful if at the end of the internship, he or she receives an offer of employment.

For 14 years, EMUHSD’s Medical Assistant students have had a 100% internship placement rate in hospitals and family practice clinics and 100% of students have the knowledge and skills needed to pass the California Medical Assistants certification test.

“Dr. Ramirez is dedicated to his students, and as such, constantly rises to the challenge of updating himself on content, theory, methods, and technologies,” said Superintendent Nick Salerno.

“We are extremely proud of the quality programs offered to our students and especially of Dr. Ramirez for earning the coveted Golden Bell Award.”

The award was presented at CSBA’s annual education conference held December 1 in San Francisco. The Golden Bell Awards program promotes excellence in education by recognizing outstanding programs in school districts and county offices of education throughout California and reflects the depth and breadth of the education programs necessary to address students’ changing needs.

Rosemead Postpones Hearing on Handcrafted Toys Made by L.A. County Home Occupation Ordinance Inmates Brighten Lives of Local Kids The Rosemead City Council on Tuesday deferred to its next meeting a public hearing for amending the city’s Municipal Code that addresses the licensing and operation of home occupations.

The existing Rosemead Municipal Code currently does not contain provisions for home occupations, and the city said it has been receiving calls from residents who would like to set up a home business - and do it legally.

The council’s next meeting date, which falls on Christmas Day, is cancelled, so the public hearing will be continued at the Tuesday, Jan. 8 meeting.

The public hearing was postponed at the request of the City Council to provide additional time to review the proposed ordinance.

Even though the council voted 5-0 to table any action on the Municipal Code amendment until the next meeting, Mayor Sandra Armenta opened up public testimony to the residents who showed up to speak. However, those in attendance chose to save their comments for when the matter would be discussed by council and staff on Jan. 8.

According to Michelle Ramirez, Community Development Director, Ordinance No. 925 will be given its first reading on Jan. 8 with a second reading scheduled for the Jan. 22 meeting. If approved, the

By Jim E. Winburn ordinance would go into affect after 30 days, said Ramirez.

“People could come in here (to City Hall) and get a home occupation business license and legally conduct that business without being cited by code enforcement,” she said.

In her staff presentation to the council on Tuesday, Ramirez explained that Municipal Code amendment would allow for home occupations in residential zoning districts in the City of Rosemead.

“The code amendment proposes a licensing procedure as well as occupational regulations to ensure that home occupations do not disrupt, become a nuisance or modify the residential character of the city’s established residential neighborhoods,” she said.

The proposed amendment allows home occupations as an incidental, accessory use in residential zoning districts through Ordinance No. 925, which was recommended to the council for adoption by the Planning Commission on Nov. 19.

In response to public comment and testimony at the Nov. 19 meeting, commissioners fine-tuned the language in the ordinance to clarify that testing, maintenance, repair, towing and storage of any boat, aircraft or motorized vehicle is prohibited as a home occupation.

The ordinance out-

lines other prohibited commercial uses that are not compatible with a residential environment, including wholesale and retail sales, dating services, adult businesses, fortune-telling, massage services, animal kennels or breeding - to name just a few.

In her presentation to the City Council, Ramirez pointed out that a home occupation is typically defined as a business activity that is conducted whole or in part in a dwelling unit or garage, and is clearly an accessory or incidental use as subordinate to the residential use of the dwelling unit.

The most common home occupations are office uses for businesses such as accountants, Internet sales, certain types of contractors or similar operations where the primary means of contact are by phone, mail or Internet, she said.

According to the staff report, city officials have completed a survey of surrounding cities to determine an appropriate fee for a home occupation, and “staff found that the surrounding cities on average charge higher fees than what the City of Rosemead charges for a Professional Business License.”

City staff is proposing a first-time application fee of $100.00 and an annual renewal fee of $50.00. For more information, visit the City of Rosemead online at www.cityofrosemead.org.

State Schools Chief Tom Torlakson Announces Funding for School Construction and Modernization Projects The State Allocation Board (SAB) today disbursed $383.8 million for new school construction and modernization projects across 110 school districts, county offices of education, and charter schools statewide, announced State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson.

“Our schools play a key role in California’s future,” said Torlakson.

“These new funds provide vital assistance to local districts in the construction and rebuilding of schools,

creating jobs in the community, and providing better opportunities to students for a successful future.”

Commissioned by Torlakson’s administration in 2011, the Schools of the Future Initiative underscores the importance of modernizing school facilities via the use of new technologies, energy efficient upgrades and the establishment of science and career technology education to guide the establishment of a 21st century learning environment for

students.

The SAB meets monthly to allocate state matching funds for the construction of new classrooms and the modernization of existing schools and to consider policies and regulations regarding SAB programs. The funds allocated by the SAB are from voter-approved general obligation bonds that cannot be used for school operational expenses.

The State Allocation Board’s online agenda provides a complete list of the allocations.

In a program that began over 52 years ago, inmates in the Los Angeles County jails have once again worked the entire year to make Christmas day more memorable for needy children. This Holiday Season, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department will distribute more than 2,150 handcrafted dolls and wooden toys to children throughout the county. “I am extremely proud of the men and women involved in this ongoing program,” said Sheriff Lee Baca.

“Each year, the labors of the instructional staff and jail inmates brighten the lives of children within our communities by providing a gift that may be the only one the child receives at Christmastime.”

This year inmates at the Century Regional Detention Facility handcrafted approximately 2,000 cloth dolls and personnel from the Pitchess Detention Center, South Facility will distribute approximately 150 wooden cars, trucks and helicopters.

“The personal satisfaction felt by those involved in the toy giveaway program is outweighed only by the joy they’re able to provide to these deserving children. The program is a blessing to the children and enables the inmates to use their time in a productive manner that benefits the community,” Sheriff Baca said. “To brighten the life of a child during the holidays is certainly one of the most rewarding feelings any of us can experience.

After all, it is what the spirit of the holiday season is all about,” the Sheriff added.

Materials used to create these holiday gifts were donated by local merchants and residents.

These supplies need to be replaced every year.

Please contact the Sheriff’s Department’s Vocational Shops if you are willing to help support this worthwhile program through the donation of wood, wood stain, yarn, cloth material or sewing thread. Doll materials should be directed to Gloria Welsh at (323) 568-4500. Wooden toy materials should be directed to Sergeant Gerri McCorkle at (661) 295-8805.

Remembering What’s Important

When All Is Said And Dunn

By Bill Dunn The madness continued in America last week as we, as a nation, shook our heads and shed a collective tear for the victims in Newtown, Connecticut. Despite what the talking heads on the news want to assume, nobody knows what was going through the killer’s head prior to the bullet that ended his life, and we never will.

Personally, I don’t care what his motivations and reasons were. Did his mom, who he also killed, spank him too much or deny him additional television time? Again, I don’t care and to spend any additional time discussing it is

pointless.

What is important is the healing that needs to happen now. Not just with the families in Newtown, but with any family that has young children who have been exposed to the onslaught of the media’s salacious coverage of the tragedy.

In their efforts to keep us informed, they always lose sight of the damage that they are doing to their youngest viewers. They may want to console themselves by thinking that all the young ones out there are being insulated from the tidal wave of descriptions their words paint, but they are not. Those mental pictures are the things that children’s nightmares are made of.

As a parent, I cannot begin to imagine the level of grief and pain that the parents of the victims are going through. I can only look at my grown children and be thankful that my wife and I were there for them as much as we could be. As a parent that is all you can do. You know that you can’t be there every second of every day. You

can only wish you were.

As I listened to the President speak at the memorial service for the victims he echoed that very sentiment. He also said he wants to find a way, as do we all, to make these senseless killings stop. It is a tall order and to be honest, one that I don’t see a solution to. Evil will always be with us, as will good. The only thing that we can hope for is that the scales of humanity stay tilted in the direction of good.

The two parts of the equation are guns and mental health, both of which are too prickly of pears for most people to swallow.

While stricter gun control might be part of the solution, the second amendment will never go away and mental illness can only be monitored so far.

If there is a cure for what is ailing us as a nation it is going to be a tough one to find.

There is one thing that a tragedy like this does make clear and that is how petty some of the things we choose to complain about seem. It puts into perspective what is truly important,

especially during this time of year.

It is not about who won or lost an election, the person in front of you that cuts you off on the freeway on the way home or the guy ahead of you who grabs the last Xbox off the shelf at Walmart. It’s about the people in your life. The ones you love and who love you. Relish every moment that they are with you because nothing lasts forever.

Make sure that they know how happy you are that they are part of your world. Life is hard enough without looking back later and wishing you had.

Once that door is closed there is no opening it again.

Happy Holidays and may we all have a better New Year.

Rosemead City Council Continued from page 1

Guard, I am confident that I have the knowledge, skills and ability to serve with the uppermost integrity and honesty,” Chin said.

According to Chin, she has experience in working with budget constraints. As a small business owner, she has been successful with community outreach efforts and representing the community, she said.

“I thank the voters for their confidence and trust in my ability to lead, for electing me twice to the Garvey School Board,” she said at her event. “Rosemead is the city I grew up in, and where I am raising my three sons now. I feel it is time for me to continue on to serve the city that gave me so much growing up.”

Chin was first elected in 2007 and re-elected in 2011 to the Garvey School Board. She has served twice as president of the Board and is the communications director for Senator Dr. Ed Hernandez, O.D. of the 24th Senate District.

Chin is currently the subject of a recall effort by the Garvey Education As-

sociation, who is accusing her of conflict of interest and voting for a contract extension and pay raise for the district’s superintendent Sandra Johnson.

In a recent statement to the media, Chin expressed disappointment in the association’s decision to target her and assured the community that she stands by her decision to approve the superintendent’s contract extension.

The City of Rosemead general municipal election takes place Mar. 5, 2013 from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Terms are expiring for Mayor Sandra Armenta and council members Stephen Ly and Margaret Clark, who were all elected in March 2009.

NASA Probes Prepare for Mission-Ending Moon Impact Twin lunar-orbiting NASA spacecraft that have allowed scientists to learn more about the internal structure and composition of the moon are being prepared for their controlled descent and impact on a mountain near the moon’s north pole at about 2:28 p.m. PST (5:28 p.m. EST) Monday, Dec. 17.

Ebb and Flow, the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission probes, are being sent purposely into the lunar surface because their low orbit and low fuel levels preclude further scientific operations. The duo’s successful prime and extended science missions generated the highest-resolution gravity field map of any celestial body. The map will provide a better understanding of how Earth and other rocky planets in the solar system formed and evolved.

“It is going to be difficult to say goodbye,” said GRAIL principal investigator Maria Zuber of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge. “Our little robotic twins have been exemplary members of the GRAIL family, and planetary science has advanced in a major way because of their contributions.”

The mountain where the two spacecraft will make contact is located near a crater named Goldschmidt.

Both spacecraft have been flying in formation around the moon since Jan. 1, 2012.

They were named by elementary school students in Bozeman, Mont., who won a contest. The first probe to reach the moon, Ebb, also will be the first to go down, at 2:28:40 p.m. PST. Flow will follow Ebb about 20 seconds later.

Both spacecraft will hit the surface at 3,760 mph (1.7 kilometers per second).

No imagery of the impact is expected because the region will be in shadow at the time.

Ebb and Flow will conduct one final experiment before their mission ends.

They will fire their main engines until their propellant tanks are empty to determine precisely the amount of fuel remaining in their tanks. This will help NASA engineers validate fuel consumption computer models to improve predictions of

fuel needs for future missions.

“Our lunar twins may be in the twilight of their operational lives, but one thing is for sure, they are going down swinging,” said GRAIL project manager David Lehman of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. “Even during the last half of their last orbit, we are going to do an engineering experiment that could help future missions operate more efficiently.”

Because the exact amount of fuel remaining aboard each spacecraft is unknown, mission navigators and engineers designed the depletion burn to allow the probes to descend gradually for several hours and skim the surface of the moon until the elevated terrain of the target mountain gets in their way.

The burn that will change the spacecrafts’ orbit and ensure the impact is scheduled to take place Friday morning, Dec. 14.

“Such a unique end-ofmission scenario requires extensive and detailed mission planning and navigation,” said Lehman. “We’ve had our share of challenges during this mission and always come through in flying colors, but nobody I know around here has ever flown into a moon mountain before. It’ll be a first for us, that’s for sure.”

During their prime mission, from March through May, Ebb and Flow collected data while orbiting at an average altitude of 34 miles (55 kilometers).

Their altitude was lowered to 14 miles (23 kilometers) for their extended mission, which began Aug. 30 and sometimes placed them within a few miles of the moon’s tallest surface features.

JPL manages the GRAIL mission for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington.

The mission is part of the Discovery Program managed at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. Lockheed Martin Space Systems in Denver built the spacecraft.

JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

Chiang Updates State Compensation Website State Controller John Chiang has updated his compensation website, publicpay.ca.gov, to show the salary, pension benefits and other compensation amounts for city and county employees in 2011.

The new posting includes submissions from 462 cities and 53 counties, totaling more than $37.6 billion.

This update follows a complete redesign of the website, which now offers analytical tools, map-based searches, trend analyses, chart and graph builders and direct access to the entire payroll database. The update also provides more data than offered in earlier versions. The latest addi-

tions include (1) a detailed breakdown of actual wages paid, including regular pay, overtime, lump sum cash outs of vacation and sick leave, bonuses, and other pay subject to Medicare taxes; and (2) the employer’s share of pension costs.

The site was originally created by Controller Chiang in late 2010, after he ordered local governments to provide salary and other compensation information for their employees to his office. The Controller’s website includes data from cities, counties, special districts, California State Universities, Community Colleges, and the State itself. For the calendar year

2010, the wages for more than 1.5 million public positions were made available. More than 622,179 positions have been posted for calendar year 2011.

For today’s posting, 17 cities and 3 counties did not file in time, or filed incomplete records.

The website covers elected officials as well as public employees. It includes the following information for each position: Minimum and maximum salary ranges; Actual wages paid, which includes not only regular pay, but also overtime, payouts for vacation and sick leave, bonuses, and other pay subject to Medicare taxes;

Everyday is an open house:

The applicable retirement formula; Both the employer’s share of pension costs, as well as any contributions by the employer covering the employee’s share of pension costs; Any contributions by the employer to the employee’s deferred compensation plan; and Any employer payments for the employee’s health, vision and dental premium benefits.

A list of agencies that failed to file payroll records with the State can also be found on the Controller’s website. Each non-complying agency could face a penalty of up to $5,000.

Sheriff’s Arrest Deputy for Felony Assault Under Color of Authority

Californians Asked to “Candle with Care”

December is Peak of Home Candle Fires Candles may be pretty to look at, but they become a fire hazard when left unattended. CAL FIRE and fire departments across the State are asking everyone to “Candle with Care” and practice basic steps to prevent injuries and costly property damage from candles.

December is the peak time of year for home fires caused by candles, as they are a common holiday decoration. More than half of these fires occur when candles are placed too close to combustible materials.

Roughly one-third of home candle fires start in the bedroom.

“Statistics show that most candle fire incidents in California are due to unattended candles as well as residents not taking the necessary fire safety measures when using candles,” said

State Fire Marshal Tonya Hoover, CAL FIRE-Office of the State Fire Marshal.

“Candle fires are preventable! By practicing some basic fire safety, you can protect your family from a fire tragedy.”

CAL FIRE offers these fire safety tips for candle use for this holiday season and all year long: Blow out all candles when you leave the room, go to bed, or leave your home.

Avoid using candles in bedrooms and other areas where people may fall asleep or leave them unattended.

Use candle holders that are sturdy and won’t tip over easily.

Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets.

Always burn candles in a well-ventilated room.

Keep candles at least

12 inches away from anything that can burn.

NEVER use candles on a Christmas tree.

Use a candle snuffer to extinguish the candle flame and prevent hot candle wax from spattering.

Consider using batteryoperated flameless candles.

In addition to practicing good candle fire safety, CAL FIRE reminds everyone to make sure they have working smoke alarms in the home. “Extra attention to fire safety in your home will help you, your family and visitors have a happy and safe holiday season and don’t require an emergency visit from the fire department,” said Chief Ken Pimlott, Director of CAL FIRE. For more fire safety tips, please visit the CAL FIRE website at www.fire. ca.gov.

Response to Connecticut School Shooting Continued from page 1

your day, receive meals - it provides that respite.”

Wolfson said the district is focusing on both short and long term responses. Though the long term involves reassessing a school safety plan, the shortterm response addresses the immediate emotional needs of local students and teachers attempting to understand a national tragedy, such as the Newtown school shooting.

“We have crisis counselors available, especially in our elementary schools - available to give students support, and also letting families know about other resources available,” Wolfson said.

Sierra Madre Elementary did just that on Monday, hosting a Crisis Counseling and Support event to help children manage distress after a tragedy.

Although unable to reach the principal before deadline, the school offered the following description of its counseling program, which was also open to faculty, staff and parents: “Our hearts go out to the families and school community in Newtown, Connecticut, for their terrible loss. At a time when children may be struggling with feelings,

they will be turning to parents and trusted adults for guidance.”

San Gabriel Unified School District Superintendent David Yoshihara said that his school principals have held staff meetings this week to offer assistance to both the district’s students and teachers.

“They discussed how to appropriately share the information with students and how safety is among our highest priorities,” said Yoshihara. “Some have offered a moment of silence during their morning message as they welcome students back.

Yoshihara also said that district level members were increasing their visibility along with the San Gabriel Police Department throughout the week.

According to the Superintendent, the district has advised staff to review their school safety plans, and some schools will hold lockdown drills throughout the week, giving students and staff additional practice if they should have to deal with a crisis situation that demands a lockdown.

But most importantly, Yoshihara said the district has the most to gain from what parents and local com-

munity leaders have to say about their own children’s schools.

“We will be working with our stakeholder groups, including parents to first listen to their concerns as they stem from Newtown and then determine how to best address them,” he said. “This will occur over the coming months as we digest the news that continues to come out of Connecticut.”

The PUSD has taken immediate action with its campuses to increase patrols in the three municipalities that encompass its district, including the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, and the Pasadena and Sierra Madre police departments.

The district spokesman said that its schools are reviewing its safety plans, scheduling additional training to ensure everyone is up to date on training and preparedness, while having students participate in drills at least once a month.

“We’ve also asked our principals and staff to be more vigilant, which I think is a natural reaction anyways,” said Wolfson.

He said the public Please see page 14

Recycle Used Oil & Filters!

Do you change your car’s motor oil? Did you know that used motor oil and oil filters are recyclable?

Used oil can be re-refined or processed into new motor oil. Currently only 46% of used motor oil is being recycled, which means 20 million gallons may be illegally entering California’s waterways via stormwater systems, posing a great risk to the environment. One gallon of used oil can contaminate a million gallons of drinking water; polluting our waterways and threaten fish and aquatic life. Prevent pollution; recycle used motor oil and filters!

deal with the tragedy in response to the deadly shooting at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school, where a gunman killed 20 children and six adults Friday. The suspect, identified as Adam Lanza, 20, also killed his mother and himself.

Late Monday, prosecutors announced they would not file charges against the Cal Poly Pomona student who allegedly posted violent threats on social media against schools. Kyle Bangayan, 24, of Pomona had made “inappropriate” comments on Facebook.

FBI agents talked to his parents, searched his apart-

ment and car, and found nothing threatening.

While Bangayan had referenced the massacre in Connecticut, he apparently made no specific threat against a school or person.

He told police that he was joking when he wrote on Facebook that if people don’t stop posting about the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings on the social network, then he would do the same thing in Los Angeles.

He also wrote that thousands of children die in other countries and that Americans needed to get over the shootings.

School Safety: Today, Tomorrow, and Beyond Arcadia Police and Agencies Endeavor to Help Community The Arcadia Police Dept. issue the following statement Tuesday: “While our thoughts and prayers remain with those impacted by the horrific tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut, last Friday, the law enforcement community is obligated to evaluate such events and continuously adjust and improve our service to the community. Specific to our local schools, both public and private, the Arcadia Police Department has collaborated with various school officials and the Arcadia Unified School District since this tragedy occurred last week. The goal of this collaboration is to provide an appropriate response and comfort to our community, our students, their families, and school staff.

McDade Shooting Investigation Continued from page 1

for a weapon.

The report confirmed that McDade had no weapon.

The District Attorney found officers Matthew Griffin and Jeffrey Newlan acted lawfully when they defended themselves from a perceived threat by McDade on March 24.

The incident was a direct result of false reports of an armed robbery made by Oscar Carillo to 9-1-1. However, the DA also decided earlier that Carillo would not be prosecuted for filing a false report that resulted in McDade’s death.

The report also stated that the autopsy toxicology on McDade showed his blood tested positive for marijuana and alcohol.

In an email repsonse to the Distric Attornet’s findings, Kenneth McDade’s attorner Caree Harper made the following remarks: “We have completed a cursory review of the so-called shooting investigation in the police shooting of teenager Kendrec McDade and quite frankly find it remarkable and insulting that the authors think the public will believe the contorted stories told by Officers Newlen and Griffin.

From the onset the reader should be particularly skeptical when the author of the (attached) document says that, “the analysis is based on reports prepared by ...and submitted to this office by Detective Jason Van Hecke.”

Det. Van Hecke is/ was the

partner of Det. Keith Gomez who is a named defendant in the federal wrongful death action in the McDade case and is the subject of multiple investigations by outside agencies. (Det. Gomez told the statement of Oscar Carrillo and failed to arrest him for 2 days for the felony false report.)

What is missing: -an admission that they handcuffed the mortally wounded teen and how long they let him bleed out; first aid?; Did they haste his death?

- they never said they saw a bulge, an object or anything in the waistband area; -other young Black males detained but released; -time of 911 call in relation to the arrival of officers, Carrillo testified 15-20 minutes elapsed.

Our review of this document will be more thorough later this week and more comments will be forthcoming. But this is quite simply another example of the devaluation of a young life in Northwest Pasadena.

Kendrec McDade’s father was disappointed and dismayed at the government’s decision not to prosecute Mr. Carrillo for a felony especially after Carrillo gave several interviews fulfilling the elements of the felony false report statute, and a sworn deposition admitting to the lies. After the videotaped admissions by Carrillo resulted in no criminal charges he is not completely surprised that

the supervisors at the D.A.s office decided not to charge the officers, but he is further disappointed that the D.A.s office chose today to make this announcement while the country mourns the loss of 20 elementary students and 6 adults who bravely tried to protect them. He knows the loss they feel.

Mr. McDade has made the decision to turn disappointment and disbelief into a resolve to make a positive change for Kendrec’s sake.

Mr. Kenneth McDade is running for the City Council seat vacated by Chris Holden in the District he was raised in... the District Kendrec was killed in.”

Mulpitle lawsuits and investigations are still on going regarding the matter but as far as the District Attorney of Los Angeles is concerned they are closing the file and “ will take no further action in this matter.”

Pasadena Chief of Police Phillip L. Sanchez said, “The shooting of Kendrec McDade is tragic for everyone involved. These incidents bear a significant emotional impact on the community and the police department. It is my desire that those impacted by this event will continue to heal as we await the final reports from the Office of Independent Review Group (ORIG), the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Administrative Review by the Pasadena Police Department”.

Controller Finds Payroll Process at Department of Parks and Recreation Violated State Policy Chiang Finds Fisk of Abuse, Fraud and Overpayments in Parks and Rec

State Controller John Chiang has found numerous errors and potential fraud in the state Parks and Recreation Dept.

-Photo by Terry Miller

State Controller John Chiang today said a review of the California Department of Parks and Recreation’s (DPR) payroll process revealed managers and employees violated state policies and keyed in payroll without proper documentation or authority, creating the risk of abuse, fraud and overpayments.

“The deliberate disregard for internal controls along with little oversight and poorly-trained staff resulted in improper payouts to Parks’ employees,” said Chiang. “When security protocols and authorization requirements so easily can be overridden, it invites the abuse of public funds.”

Much of the DPR’s payroll problems were related to “out-of-class” compensation (OOC), which is a type of pay for employees who perform duties far outside the scope of their position. This type of pay may only be used in limited circumstances, for a specific number of days and with documentation supporting the additional pay.

The review, which looked at DPR’s payroll processes for the period of July 1, 2009, through June 30, 2012, found that management circumvented rules and regulations regarding employees who were working out-of-class (OOC) by keying in payments without receiving the proper approval or providing needed documentation.

During the period of review, 203 individuals received out-of-class compensation that totaled approximately $520,000.

Without sufficient documentation, the Controller’s auditors were unable to determine how much, if any, of the payments were lawful.

However, the auditors did find that employees were paid OOC in excess of the number of days an employee may work out of class under state policies and collective bargaining agreements.

Some employees apparently performed back-to-back OOC assignments, and one individual worked on OOC assignment for the 120-day limit, then moved to another OOC assignment for an additional 120 days, and then moved back into the original OOC assignment. Twenty employees who were prohibited from receiving OOC for more than 365 days exceeded that time period, receiving an additional $46,000.

The review also found improper access to the payroll system. Last summer, the media reported on a number of unauthorized leave “buybacks,” in which employees were inappropriately paid the cash value of their accrued vacation or other leave time.

The Controller’s review found that approximately 90% of those unauthorized leave buy-backs were keyed by two DPR managers who used the payroll system without approved access.

In another finding, auditors determined that DPR employees who were out on disability leave were inappropriately given credit for the personal leave program.

The program requires employees take a 5% pay cut in exchange for eight hours

of PLP/furlough credits per month.

The Controller recommends that DPR personnel remove all PLP credits from employees who received disability pay and were not subject to the 5% pay cut, or the PLP credit.

Finally, the review revealed that eight of 19 temporary intermittent employees who are limited to working only 1,500 hours per year exceeded that amount, resulting in $11,272 in extra pay. Two of 16 permanent intermittent employees received approval to extend their work hours beyond the 1,500-hour limit; however, they exceeded the number of hours approved in their extensions at a cost of $548.

Eight of 340 retired annuitants working during the review period exceeded the limit of 960 hours per fiscal year at a cost of $5,810.

The Controller recommends that DPR set up a system to alert the employee and the employee’s manager when the employee nears exceeding the maximum number of hours per year they work.

The Controller calls upon DPR’s new management team to pursue reimbursement from employees who received compensation to which they were not lawfully entitled and plans to revisit DPR’s payroll process at a later date to ensure they are implementing this and the review’s many recommendations to strengthen internal controls over the payroll process.

37 Convicted Sex Offenders Arrested in Southland ICE Enforcement Surge U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers arrested 37 foreign nationals with prior convictions for sex offenses during a three-day operation targeting criminal alien sex offenders in the Los Angeles area.

During the enforcement effort, which concluded late Friday, ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers assigned to the agency’s Fugitive Operations Teams sought to locate and take custody of deportable alien sex offenders in four Southland counties - Los Angeles (16), Orange (4), Ventura (11) and San Bernardino (6). While the majority of those arrested were Mexican citizens (25), the group included nationals of eight other countries, including El Salvador, Honduras, Vietnam, Armenia, Trinidad, the Philippines, Nicaragua and Guatemala.

Among those detained during the operation was a citizen of Trinidad and registered sex offender whose prior convictions include sexual battery, battery on a

peace officer and annoying or molesting a child under 18. The 56-year-old, who was arrested in Los Angeles Thursday, is being held by ICE without bond pending removal from the United States.

Also taken into custody during the operation was a registered sex offender from Mexico who had prior convictions for lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14, drug trafficking, firearms violations and attempted grand theft. The 40-year-old was taken into custody Thursday in Palmdale. He is being held without bond pending removal from the United States.

The arrests were coordinated with ICE’s National Fugitive Operations Program, which is responsible for investigating, locating, arresting and removing at-large criminal aliens and immigration fugitives – aliens who have ignored final orders of deportation handed down by federal immigration courts. ICE’s Fugitive Operations Teams give top priority to cases involving aliens who pose

a threat to national security and public safety, including members of transnational street gangs and child sex offenders.

“This operation was designed to target and arrest criminal aliens who have been convicted of sex crimes,” said Timothy Robbins, field office director for ERO Los Angeles. “We will all be able to rest easier knowing that these dangerous criminals are off our streets and will soon be out of the United States.”

ICE is focused on smart, effective immigration enforcement that targets serious criminal aliens who present the greatest risk to the security of our communities, such as those charged with or convicted of homicide, rape, robbery, kidnapping, major drug offenses and threats to national security. ICE also prioritizes the arrest and removal of those who game the immigration system including immigration fugitives or criminal aliens who have been previously deported and illegally re-entered the country.

Sierra Madre - Search and Rescue Lost Hikers, Chantry Flat/Big Santa Anita Canyon: The Team responded to Chantry Flat to assist two hikers who had gotten off trail, become disoriented and were unable to get back to the trailhead due to darkness. Rescue team members began searching along potential routes of travel based on the limited information SMPD had been able to obtain during the initial call for assistance. SMSR Operations Leaders (OL) were able to establish communication via SMS/text messaging and determined the hikers were using an Apple iPhone. Using one of the OLs iPhones they were able to use the “Find My Phone” application to get an approximate location that allowed crews to concentrate efforts near Hermit Falls. Since the “Find My Phone” application was not able to provide detailed location information, rescuer’s familiarity with the area was critical in determining the side canyon where the subjects were stranded. Field crews located the hikers several hundred feet up the side of a side canyon. The subjects were cold but uninjured and required the use of a rope “handline” to get back to the trail.

hiker at Sturtevant Camp that his friend had fallen from a section of the trail between Mt. Wilson and the camp. The hiker reported that he was no longer able to locate his friend. SMPD put out a page notifying SMSR and the Team responded.

A so-called “bash crew”, equipped to move quickly and evaluate the situation, was immediately sent into the field to make the approximately 4 mile hike to the location where the hiker was last seen. The bash crew reached the location in just over an hour and made contact with the reporting party who escorted them to where he had last seen his companion. After several minutes, verbal contact was made with the missing hiker and the crew was able to locate the subject in the canyon bottom below the trail. After determining that there were no injuries beyond a few scrapes, crews escorted both hikers back to their vehicle at Chantry.

Both of the calls described above were helped by the use of technology. Each took over 3 hours to successfully resolve when the technology was working. Cell phones and other technologies are wonderful tools but should never be completely relied upon in the mountains. There are many areas where cell phone reception is limited or completely unavailable. While there are

a series of call boxes in the Chantry Flat/Big Santa Anita Canyon that connect users with the Pack Station, hikers may struggle to locate or be unfamiliar with the use of the system. If there had been no cell phone reception or the call to the Pack Station had not gone through, each rescue could have taken many more hours to resolve.

With the shorter days of winter and increased likelihood of poor weather, hikers and others are reminded that being prepared is crucial for a safe trip into the mountains.

Being prepared includes carrying warm clothing and a light source as part of your 10 essentials. Remember to make sure someone knows where you’ve gone and when you will return. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Hiker Plan is a good way to document your plans.

For 60 years the all-volunteer Sierra Madre Search and Rescue team has been responding to calls for help in the local mountains and beyond. Funded entirely by private donations, SMSR provides a range of public programs on wilderness safety in addition to its search and rescue activities. The Team never charges for any of its services.

Fiscal Cliff Continued from page 5

dramatic knockout punch (sorry Manny Pacquiao).

Everyone’s purse strings will indeed tighten over the next year. The economic effects will be felt in stages for families, states and the federal government.

Let me begin with a very brief synopsis of the fiscal situation looming on the horizon. On January first, there may be two abrupt changes to the federal government’s budget.

One: the temporary tax cuts, authorized in 2001 by President George W. Bush, will expire. Almost everyone will pay higher taxes and the government will generate a larger income.

Two: Our country may be forced to reduce its expenditures by 1.2 trillion dollars over the next ten years.

Half directly affecting the military budget and the other half focused on nondefense spending including the big entitlements. This is being called the Sequestration. Medicare will be reduced by 2%, and for now Social Security and Medicaid would be exempt. Less government spending will reduce the national deficit, but roughly 1 million jobs dependent on this money may be lost*. That’s it in a nutshell.

All of this was planned to reduce the national debt in the name of fiscal responsibility. If this goal is important to you, as it

is to me, the expiration of the temporary ‘Bush’ tax cuts and the mandated federal spending limits are desirable steps in the deficit reduction direction. Everyone knows that living on substantially less money is hard. To varying degrees, we have all agreed to bite the bullet for the greater good. Due to the increased revenues and mandated belt tightening, the annual deficit—the difference between what the government takes in and what it spends—could be reduced by roughly half by the end of 2013**. This could be looked on favorably, wherever you reside along the political spectrum.

However, America’s economic growth may indeed stall. Less money released into the system will slow down the gears of our national economy. People will have less money to spend. Businesses too will inevitably reduce their expenditures. The federal government will funnel less money into the economic pipeline. This is the tradeoff. Dam the river and the water levels decline. Listening to the talking heads on the television, political agreement on an alternative method for reducing the deficit doesn’t appear on the horizon. This Sequestration is the path our elected officials have chosen, and last month we

again chose our elected officials.

As a Certified Financial PlannerTM practitioner, I prefer predictability and stability. Whatever the outcome of these Fiscal Cliff negotiations, we need for the rules to be set. What is most destabilizing to our economy is the uncertainty of what our national taxation and spending structures will be. Financial markets hinge on perception and at the moment our vision is cloudy. We all make financial decisions on what we can reasonably expect to experience in the near future. What will create a true crisis is our inability to assess risk.

For now, we are a nation in waiting. Uncertainty in fiscal policy poses the most significant near-term threat to markets. Once congress and the President reach an agreement, whatever it may be, we can start making informed decisions again.

Until then, please plan on ringing in the New Year with family, friends and loved ones. Watch the unfolding drama warily. Oh, and about the impending doom due to the Mayan calendar running out: not to worry, we switched over to the Gregorian one a while back. We must all still invest in and for the future.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
