Staff Reports to Council on Proposed Development Changes

BY SUSAN MOTANDER The Monrovia City Council began a review of the staff’s proposals regarding changes in the city’s regulations regarding the size and design of residences in the community.

The Council had requested that staff reach out to the community starting in November of 2014 to review citizen concerns about so-called “mansionization” in new construction.

At that time, permits had been requested for the demolition of several pre-1940 homes and other permits were requested for the substantial remodeling of several other homes. At that time the city imposed two moratoria, one on demolition of pre1940 homes and one on the issuance of building permits for two story homes in certain areas. These were established for one year and were extended for a second year to allow staff more time to assess the public input.

That input lasted through mid-2015 with online surveys and a series of public meetings regarding what the community wanted. According to the staff report, that the counSEE PAGE 15

‘Lock It Up’ Public Awareness Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence Los Angeles has again asserted itself as a leading voice in the national gun violence prevention debate as hundreds of LA Dept. of Transportation DASH buses hit the streets outfitted with new, educational advertise-

ments urging Angelenos to “Lock it Up” and safely store their firearm when not in use. The ads read: “Lock it Up: Never let your gun get in the wrong hands.” LA’s “Lock it Up” campaign .In 2015, Los Angeles passed Krekorian’s

landmark law mandating the safe storage of handguns in the home by requiring that handguns be stored in a locked container or disabled with a trigger lock. LA’s policy goes further than California state law, which requires

that locks be sold with handguns, but fails to require gun owners to use them. The law is meant to make children and families more secure in their homes, schools and around the city by keeping firearms out of the wrong

Hernández Bill to Enhance Program for Low-Income Commuters On Feb. 1, the Assembly Floor passed AB 620 by Assemblymember Roger Hernández (D – West Covina). The bill, in partnership with L.A. Metro, requires the agency to increase their efforts to improve the lowincome assistance program for commuters of limited financial means.

While the current outcomes being achieved by the L.A. Metro Low-Income Assistance Program are disappointing, AB 620 renews the focus and awareness of the agency to double down on their efforts with a more focused program design.

For example, to date, 8,877 households are enrolled in the low-income assistance program out of over 450,000 Express Lane accounts. Applications for the program can be submitted by mail or at one of two walk-in centers in the whole county.

“It is important to ensure greater opportunities

for enrollment by low-income commuters into the Low-Income Assistance Program,” said Hernández.

Toll lanes are an important tool for transportation congestion management, but unfortunately toll lanes can also have a disproportionate impact on low-income commuters. Economic studies show that the biggest burden on family incomes is the cost of housing and transportation.

A report by Smart Growth America found that transportation is the second largest expense for American households, costing more than food, clothing, or health care.

“I am glad L.A. Metro has removed its opposition to AB 620. I look forward to working with the L.A. Metro Board to better assist low-income commuters’ gain more access to the Express Lanes,” stated Hernández.

COMMUNITY FEEDBACK

BeaconMediaNews.com

Tom Sawyer Camps Say ‘No’ to Minimum Wage Increase Dear Editor: Tom Sawyer Camps hires about 175 young people every summer, often for their first job. Most are home from college for the summer, although many are still high school students. We give young workers training and skills they need to learn how to apply for a job, interview, show up on time, and take pride in their work and build their education and careers on.

However, a job at Tom Sawyer is not meant to be a career job that will ever support a family or help someone buy a house. The proposed increase of the minimum wage will effect decisions we make about the number of staff we hire and types of programs we can offer. Any increase in the minimum wage will force us to either raise tuition, or to hire fewer local students in the summer, likely both. I urge you to move cautiously.

Response to Teacher Patricia Guzman’s Lawsuit Against Madison School, PUSD

What is most surprising is how they convinced an African-American civil rights attorney to represent the abusive teacher and NOT the kid who was abused. They must think people are stupid … which might be what they want? Ask them why their own kids went to elite private schools yet are protecting abusive and incompetent teachers for our community’s public school kids?

Let’s look at their latest tactic and imagine a Latino attorney defending a teacher who abused a black kid at a nearly all-black school??

Wonder how that would play out.

That’s right, this is the same school district that allowed the black coach to go into a classroom and slam some Latino kids around crashing into desks and computers … and then only receive probation. The bullying in this town is from the top down and the drilling needed to root out the corruption must go deep. Madison

School employees should be lucky the school was not reconstituted into a Free Public Charter School where everyone had to reapply for a job!

Maybe that’s what will be needed if these teacher union disrupters continue with their disingenuous ways.

Concerned Citizen Worries About Arcadia’s Council Candidates

Dear Editor: When you see who is running to be elected, it does not look like a pretty picture.

Three reruns: - Bob Harbicht who has been on the council many times, and multiple times mayor … you would think, has used up his best thinking in the past.

- Sheng Chang struggled in his last term in office with very little in accomplishments.

- Peter Amundson who has the right business background, tried hard, but could not convince others on the council to make changes to make the city run better for the residents and not just for the employees.

- April Verlato seems to have the heart to take on city hall and get things done that past councils have not.

- Burton Brink, a local with no business experience.

Well-intentioned, but looks from here to represent city employees and not the citizens.

- I do not know Paul Van Fleet, so no comment.

We need new thinking, people who will work together to keep Arcadia a great place to live, someone who will not allow salaries and retirement benefits to run away.

Looking at high city salaries in Arcadia, compared to what is paid in private sector is obscene, the only ones who can change this trend is the city council and we elect them. Think twice about who will represent you and your money and property.

Remember that whoever is elected has to put up with Roger Chandler and Sho Tay. Tom Beck has had his hands full, fighting for the citizens. He needs two strong new council members to turn this city around. It is up to you the voter. What do you want, a city run for the citizens or agains?

Pasadena’s Flour Revolution

By Gus Herrera Nan Kohler, owner of Grist & Toll in South Pasadena, is a modern-day revolutionary. A lifelong avid baker, her mission is to change the way we think about flour and wheat.

Since the end of the 19th century, most flour milling has been accomplished by using a roller milling technique, a seemingly cookie-cutter approach that no one has really challenged until now.

Grist & Toll uses a stone milling technique, the old school way most millers went about their business prior to the technological advances of the Industrial Revolution. Where roller milling is, “all about just getting the central part of the white endosperm,” stone milling crushes everything together, making it much more aromatic, flavorful, and beautiful.

Kohler describes the key difference between her products and those we have been accustomed to: “when you go to the grocery store shelves you do not find different milling techniques.

There is a huge bump up in flavor, aroma, and quality because our flours are so fresh. That’s where the stone milling process shines the most and puts the biggest spotlight on what the dramatic differences are between what we are doing and what big, industrialized, commercial roller milling is all about.”

But it is not just the difference in the milling tech-

nique that improves the flour’s quality; there is also a fundamental difference in the raw materials. With a focus on sustainability, she only selects wheat and grains grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Furthermore, similar to single variety wines, most of her flours are each sourced from a single variety of wheat, unlike the big companies whose flour is made up of a combination of different wheat blended together. In fact, Kohler’s prior experience in the wine industry helped influence her approach to flour, “I was in the wine industry for several years, so part of my background was already about individual flavors and elements, understanding agriculture and sense of place, and how that drives the expression of a single variety of grape.”

Kohler describes her vision for her company: “It’s pretty big, I don’t know how realistic it is, but I’m doing it one bag of flour at a time. I really want to change how we think about flour and wheat. We’ve been taught not to think about it, someone else has blended things, they’ve created something they say is for bread … ‘here you go, bake with it.’ Wheat has such beautiful individuality and character; it’s a big learning curve for all of us.

We haven’t had flour with character and real aroma in a long, long time.”

Kohler’s business truly opens a whole new world for those who love baking.

Kohler only selects raw materials sustainably grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

In addition to custom orders, Grist & Toll offers several varieties available for retail purchase either in store or online.

Her passion is contagious, a quality which will inevitably drive the success of her company.

Arcadia High School Senior Makes Intel Science Talent Search Finals

By May S. Ruiz George Hou, a 17-yearold Arcadia High School senior, has a lot of things on his mind right now. This is the time when 12th graders are waiting to hear back from the schools to which they applied. But college decisions are not what he is currently preoccupied with – he is busy continuing the research project that earned him a spot in the 75th Annual Intel Science Talent Search (STS).

George’s research titled, “Separating Mixed Signals in Noise-Polluted Environments Using Global Optimization” was prompted by his desire to find a better hearing aid for his grandfather. He says, “I was very close to my grandpa growing up and enjoyed talking to him. He’s in his 80s and has always been hard of hearing so we had to raise our voices. But in December 2013 he completely lost his hearing and started to wear a hearing aid. Then he stopped using it because it only amplified the background noise. All of a sudden we couldn’t talk to him and that came as a shock to me.”

To help his grandpa,

George investigated various hearing aids on the market to see if more expensive brands were better at filtering out background noise. But none of them could. Through his internet search, he came across a book called “The Mathematical Modelling and Signal Processing in Speech and Hearing Sciences” by UC Irvine professor, Dr. Jack Xin. He found it very interesting but realized his 10th grade math was not enough to make him understand much of it.

“I took a leap of faith and emailed the author and, to my surprise, he responded after a few weeks and even offered to mentor me,” George relates. “We developed a good relationship and he sent me various materials to read. That led us to pursue this further – using applied math we were able to use mathematical theory and analysis to develop an algorithm that can successfully separate sounds.

We were able to prove that this can be done under specific circumstances. So all background noise can be separated individually – like birds chirping or people talking.”

For the next one and a

half years, George worked on his research with Dr. Xin’s guidance. During the school year, he spent anywhere from seven to 10 hours per week on it. In the summer months, he devoted nine hours a day and twice a week drove to UC Irvine, to confer and to show his progress to Dr. Xin. While George worked on this project on his own, outside of school, his teachers encouraged him to enter the Intel Science competition. He confesses that the application process for the competition was, “insanely long – like working on five college applications. I almost didn’t want to do it but my teachers spurred me on – they really were the driving force behind me.

They all said I had nothing to lose.”

And that prognostication proved omniscient. On Jan. 6, Arcadia High School’s principal received a letter from Intel Science Talent Search informing him that George has been selected one of 300 semifinalists.

Arcadia High is one of 191 schools across the country from which one or more Intel STS semifinalists were named this year.

On Jan. 20, George was

named one of 40 students to make it to the final round who will attend the Intel Science Talent Institute in Washington, D.C., from March 10 to 16 to compete for top awards. Three $150,000 awards will be handed out; each Intel STS semifinalist and the school he or she attends will receive $1,000.

George is monumentally thrilled to be coming face-to-face with the judges.

“I am mentally preparing myself to stay composed when I meet all these Nobel Laureates. I don’t want to embarrass myself by totally geeking out on them when they ask me about my work,” he confides.

I am also very eager to use this as a platform to share my research with other people and spread awareness. There are 360 million people worldwide with disabling hearing problems; maybe my idea will allow other researchers, inventors, and scientists to build off it. With our combined effort we could tackle the problem and create something to help older people hear better,” George concludes.

Shortly after George returns from Washington,

George Hou’s inspiration to create a better hearing aid came from grandfather. – Courtesy Photo

D.C., he will find out if he has been accepted to the schools he applied to. He wants to attend a large research university to pursue Applied Math and Signal Processing, and where he can continue to work on his project. He would like to come up with a robust algorithm and method to implement with current hearing aids. In the future he would like to be able to design a

new generation of hearing aids.

At the very least, hearing problems could be a source of much annoyance for millions of senior citizens. If George is successful in his endeavor, there could one day be a hearing aid that older people would actually want to wear. And that would significantly improve the lives of seniors during their waning years.

Accredited Online Colleges or Students With Disabilities

By May S. Ruiz Every year, thousands of high school seniors across the country embark on the next phase in their educational career – applying to college.

Clueless parents hoping to help their teenagers navigate this daunting process spend time and money buying books or going online to learn about it.

The college search process has spawned a multi-billion dollar industry, with such entities offering standardized test preparation, to independent counselors who charge thousands of dollars to get students into the school that would best prepare them for a future career.

While a majority of students applying to college are thinking of a physical institution, there is a small group where an online school might be the best fit - people with disabilities. Based on figures gathered by the National Center for Education Statistics, about 11 percent of all undergraduate students have

some form of disability.

This is where Accredited Online Colleges comes into the picture. According to its website, this organization aims to provide prospective students with the resources they need to choose the perfect school to fit their needs. Their database has 973 schools and 67,284 programs available. Currently they have over 8.9 million students enrolled and they have graduated over 1.8 million.

Research gathered by Accredited Online Colleges revealed that most students with disabilities were not aware of all the grants, scholarships, and education resources available to them. To provide them assistance, the company recently published the 2016 College Resources for Students that includes a user-friendly guide which encompasses the students’ legal rights and protection, the different education opportunities, and grants and scholarships they can avail of.

For students with disabilities this invaluable resource may be the difference

between earning a college education that could give them opportunities to better their lives or giving up on their dreams altogether.

Using Accredited Colleges Online gives students the assurance that the time and money they put into their postsecondary education are well spent. Only properly accredited institutions are found on their database.

It also provides a list of programs the schools offer.

The website offers guidelines for students on how to choose the best schools, much like a high school guidance counselor would. It asks students to identify their goal then it helps them find the program that best suits their specific needs with the best faculty and coursework to achieve it.

Furthermore, it gives guidance on funding their education. The entire guide and its features can be found at www.accreditedonlinecolleges.org/resources/accredited-online-colleges-and-disability-education.

Pasadena Unified Invites High School Families to Cash for College Workshops Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) counselors are urging high school seniors and their families to attend Cash for College workshops on Jan. 30 at Pasadena City College (PCC) and get oneon-one help completing applications for college grants and scholarships that are due March 2. Additional workshops are scheduled at PUSD high schools in January and February.

“Our core mission is to ensure that students graduate from our schools prepared for college and careers, and part of that preparation is ensuring that our graduates can fund their post-secondary education,” said Superintendent Brian McDonald, Ed.D. “We invite district families to attend these free workshops and learn how to navigate the college funding systems so that all of our children have

an opportunity to realize their potential.”

The Saturday, Jan. 30, Cash for College workshop is from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the PCC Creveling Lounge, 1570 E. Colorado Blvd.

Families can get help completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and/or the California Dream Act Application (for eligible AB540 students). These forms must be submitted

State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson reported a 32 percent increase in the number of students automatically approved to receive free meals in California schools.

In Dec. 2015, the 32 percent increase meant that 326,029 additional students were automatically approved for free school meals in California’s school nutrition programs.

Students are enrolled in the free meals program each month through a federally mandated direct certification process that grants automatic

eligibility to students in families already participating in the CalFresh and California Work Opportunity or Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) benefit programs without the families having to complete any additional meal applications. Direct certification relieves school districts and low-income families from another administrative burden and helps ensure the most vulnerable children have access to nutritious meals during the school day.

The increase in eligible students directly certified results from modifications

to the process of matching federal participation data in CalFresh and CalWORKs with state data and student-level data.

“This collaboration is a great example of how agencies working together can directly help students,” Torlakson said. “This partnership is leveraging technology effectively to help more families connect with school meals and CalFresh, thereby improving child nutrition and well-being,” said Will Lightbourne, director of the California Department of Social Services.

Large Increase in Students Eligible for Free School Meals

by March 2 to receive priority consideration for state and federal financial aid including grants, loans, and workstudy opportunities. Families should bring important documents to complete the forms.

For a list of documents and more information, go to www. pasadena.edu/cashforcollege.

Although the PCC workshop also offers help completing the Cal Grant GPA Verification form, PUSD submits all student grade point averages electronically to the California Student Aid Commission so that students can concentrate on completing the FAFSA and other forms in time.

INSPIRATIONAL and IMMERSIVE

John Muir High School held a Cash for College workshop back in early January; another is scheduled Feb. 17 at 3:15 p.m. Rose City High School offers assistance to students and families every week; contact the school at rosecity.pusd.us for more details.

“It also has more high rises than any city other than Los Angeles in the county and is the home of more Fortune 500 companies than any city in California except for San Francisco.”

Donovan also said that he appreciated his time in Monrovia and the support he had received from the community as a whole. “I will miss this community, but feel this is the right step in my career,” Donovan said.

School Superintendent Kathy Thorosian called this the result of “a Herculean group effort.” She singled out Connie Wu, the district’s Chief Business Officer (whom she called “My general on this”), Vincent Marchetti, who heads Maintenance, Operations and Transportation and Nelson Santos who is in charge of purchasing, for their extraordinary work. In addition, Thorosian notes that the cooperation of all students and administrators and especially the staff and teachers at Monrovia High School, made the swift work possible.

If all goes well, the work will be completed by the beginning of the next school year. In the interim, six portable classrooms have been set up on some of the school’s tennis courts and should be completely functional shortly according to Marchetti.

Parks Assessment Meeting This Saturday The City of Monrovia, in conjunction with Los Angeles County, is holding a parks assessment meeting this Saturday, Feb. 6, at Fire Station #2 (2055 S. Myrtle Ave.).

Help make decisions about the parks in this community and answer these questions: Where do we most need new parks, recreation facili-

ties or open space? Which parks need repair or expansion? What type of recreation is most needed? What will make your family and your neighborhood healthy, happy, and out getting physical exercise? Let your voice be heard in making these important decisions for the community

Visionary Teacher Harriet Glickman to Speak at Monrovia Library On Feb. 20 at 1 p.m., the Monrovia Public Library invites you to meet Harriet Glickman, the former teacher who helped create Franklin Armstrong, the first African American Peanuts character. In1968, shortly after the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Glickman wrote a letter to

Charles Schulz requesting that he include an African American child in the comic strip. She will be at the library to share her experience, followed by a showing of the 1977 movie, “Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown” featuring Charlie Brown’s best friend Franklin and all the Peanuts gang.

cil later adopted as a guide for drawing up new regulations, the concerns centered on two things: neighborhood compatibility and historic preservation.

Members of the Community Development Department, in an effort to lift at least the moratorium on building permits if not demolition permits, submitted a series of proposals regarding building size, massing/bulk (i.e. setbacks), height and extended design review. The issues of density and design were left for further review. Last week, these proposals were reviewed, first with contractors and developers and then with members of the Monrovia Old House Preservation Group. Early this week they held another review with the Monrovia Area Partnership Group and the general public.

On Tuesday they made the same presentation to the City Council. This was done in a study session only.

However, as Craig Jimenez, the Director of Community Development, began laying out the proposals, members of the council repeatedly asked detailed questions. The council had set aside only one hour for the study session in order

to hold a closed session on unrelated potential litigation.

Even postponing the closed session to after the regular city council meeting, and continuing the study session until just before the time set for the regular meeting, the council did not have enough time to review and discuss the entire proposal.

Normally after a study session of this nature, members of the city staff are given directions from the council regarding the issue at hand. Staff then incorporates the changes suggested by the council and returns the matter to the council for action at a sub-

sequent meeting. Since the Council did not have time to discuss the issue fully, the recommendation of the council was to schedule an additional study session on the issue.

It became obvious that various members of the council hold differing positions on the proposed changes with Mayor Tom Adams questioning whether we should impose more stringent requirements on future buildings then we did in the past noting that under the proposed changes a house like Idylwild (an historic, landmarked home on north Mayflower would not be allowed.

cilmember Gloria Crudgington quickly pointed out that these homes were built when the lots were a great deal larger and had subsequently been subdivided, as smaller lots became the norm.

It is important to note that all of these requirements are currently only recommendations and the council has not yet taken action on any of the proposals and will not do so until after the planning commission has studied and reviewed them and the council has completed its own study.

Have Any Questions About Your Insurance?

Bob was a proud and devoted father and was blessed with four daughters. He taught them that they had value and inspired them to maximize their potential. If you want to see a twinkle in his eyes and listen to him boast with pride for hours – just ask: How are Reni and the girls?

Bob truly was larger than life and will be dearly missed by all those who loved him. His service will be held on Feb. 19 at 1 p.m. at Mater Dolorosa in Sierra Madre, followed by a celebration of his life. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be sent to Team USA in support of the U.S. Women’s Paralympic swimming team or the Lone Survivor Foundation at www.lonesurvivorfoundation.org.

Arcadia Assistance League Enjoy a Tour of Winery

Assistance League of Arcadia enjoyed a popular outing to the San Antonio Winery in downtown Los Angeles.

The event was a combination of celebrating another successful holiday sale at our Bargain Box Thrift Store and an opportunity to spend time with some prospective members.

Profits from the sale go to variety of programs, including clothing needy school children in Arcadia and surrounding neighborhoods through our Operation School Bell program.

The San Antonio Winery tour was enjoyed by over 50 members and interested guests. The winery, owned by the Riboli family, is the oldest winery in California.

An interesting, informative tour topped off by a delicious lunch was the perfect way to celebrate our hard work in creating a successful sale and opportunity to look forward having new members join the chapter.

If you are interested in further information about the Assistance League, please visit our website, www.alarcaia.org or email ala@alarcadia.org.

A new California Appellate case just published August 8, 2013, “Glaski v.

Bank of America”, holds that a homeowner can challenge his lender’s right to foreclose by showing that the Deed of Trust never made it into the securitized trust until after the trust’s closing date. This issue is now squarely before the California Supreme Court in Yvanova v. New Century Mortgage Corp.

This is the case in most loans made in the last 12 years. If the bank foreclosed we should be able to get the homeowner money damages and/or the house back. Or a lawsuit could be filed and a court ruling obtained preventing the court from foreclosing. Recently enacted Sections 2924(a)(6) and 2924.19 of California Civil Code provide the same relief to homeowners.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Regional Administrator Jared Blumenfeld announced more than $182 million in funding to California for investment in statewide improvements in local drinking water and wastewater infrastructure and the reduction of water pollution.

The $182 million in additional funding announced will be used across California for water quality projects that will reduce water pollution, improve municipal drinking water and wastewater infrastructure, make projects more sustainable by increasing water and energy efficiency, and provide technical assistance to communities. California’s Clean Water State Revolving Fund provides financing in the form of low-interest loans for municipal wastewater treatment projects, while the state’s Drinking Water State Revolving Fund provides financial assistance for drinking water infrastructure improvements.

Since the inception of California’s clean water and drinking water revolving funds programs in 1988 and 1996, respectively, the EPA has awarded more than $4.6 billion in federal funding.

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will

or estate, or both, of ESTHER MARGARET OBERG A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Linda Salvatierra in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Linda Salvatierra be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held on March 1, 2016 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 79 Room. 610 located at 111 N. Hill St., Los Angeles, CA 90012.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Street Address or other common designation of real property: 7641 Fern Ave , Rosemead , CA 91770 A.P.N.: 5285-033-005 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property.

You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. 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. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. 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 this 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.

I Had to Ask!

Mother and Daughter, Ages: Four and Three

By Dorothy Denne

H

ow many kind of rotten things took place in your life last week? Yeah, me too. At least that many.

There were enough that I was getting near the edge of a downer mood. I knew it was time to take inventory of my blessings and there are a plenty.

Health? Eeh, not great but I am in good shape for the shape I am in.

Friends? More than my share and in varying age

groups.

Full belly and a roof over my head? Yep. Albeit the roof leaks and the belly is too big, but hey.

Family? Well the biologicals are many miles away.

But, I am richly blessed to have my chosens, my “heartfamily,” relatively close by.

Depends on how many cars are on the freeway.

Neighbors? I am blessed here too. I have neighbors who are long time neighbors.

We truly are neighbors, as in the old-fashioned kind who share kindliness and helpful-

WE HAVE “SOMETHING” YOU NEED

Sunday Worship: 8 and 10:45 a.m.

Sunday School: (all ages) 9:15 a.m.

ness, not just as in the people who happen to live next door.

The other day three of us, females, were standing outside chatting. We talked for over half an hour. During that half hour plus, I had the opportunity to learn a new word.

We lamented the state of politics, the government, the environment. The flock of neighborhood parrots flew over and we commented about how the flock seems to be getting fewer in number.

Then we had something to say about the dove who repeatedly lays her eggs in my carport beams.

These latter two subjects started us to reminiscing. This brought laughter.

We were giggling and belly laughing, having a really good time. One wiped her eyes, sucked in her breath and chortled, "I have to go in now. I made a shart."

"Oooo, what is a shart?"

I asked eagerly.

Turns out, a shart is a fart that went liquid.

I had to ask!

T

wo gorgeous females! Ariel is the mother - super sweet, calm, and friendly. Elsa, the daughter, is a little bit shy but will definitely come around. Both had kittens before we rescued them and both were good to their babies. However, it is the mothers who wait and wait for homes after their kittens are adopted. It is their turn to find their forever home now. It would be purr-fect if both Ariel and her daughter, Elsa, could be adopted together, as Elsa is quite bonded to her mother. If you can consider this, they would qualify for our Twofer Discount.

Convenient adoption application, more pictures, and videos are available on the website, www.lifelineforpets.org.

Temple City Girls’ Soccer Slammed San Marino Wednesday Night, Jan. 27 photos by trevor stamp

The game held Wednesday, Jan. 27, was a huge upset for the San Marino Titans. The Temple City Rams played a heavy defensive game and it paid off immensely. This was Temple City’s first win in eight seasons versus the reign-

ing champions from San Marino. This was also San Marino’s first league season loss in two years. Freshman Maddie Coppolo’s header from junior Ariana Pinedo’s corner kick in the first half put the Rams at the advantage. Both teams played

aggressive games, but freshman Megan Knowles’ assist to junior Kristen Chen when San Marino’s goalkeeper came out of the box to defend the play in the last five minutes of the game was the goal that clinched the game.
