Sierra Madre Ranked #9 of 50 Safest Cities

Safewise.com recently released their rankings for the safest cities in California (http://www.safewise.com/ blog/safest-cities-california-2016/). This year, the City of Sierra Madre came in at number nine on the list, previously ranked at 24. The city has a Violent Crimes per 1,000 residents ratio of 1.17 and a Property Crimes per 1,000 residents ratio of 8.30. The Golden State gives us the game-changing tech of Silicon Valley, the glamour of the red carpet, and the ideal picture of how to live a healthy, active lifestyle. From the Golden Gate Bridge to the Giant Dipper roller coaster at Mission Beach, California is a state full of iconic landmarks that have become part of the very fabric of America. All of the cities on the list have more than 11,000 residents, which makes their outstanding safety records even more impressive. Over 50 percent of California’s safest cities had fewer than 20 violent crimes during the FBI’s most recent reporting period and 17 of the 20 cities reported zero incidents of murder. In 75 percent of these cities, the chance of falling victim to a violent crime is less than one in 1,000. When it comes to property crime, your SEE PAGE 17

This year, Sierra Madre climbed into the top-ten, from its previous rank at 24.

On May 5, detectives from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Departments Major Crimes Bureau, BurglaryRobbery Task Force, filed a 24-count, 10-defendant residential burglary series case with the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, High Tech Crimes Division. This criminal complaint alleged the suspects committed residential burglaries throughout Los Angeles County and surrounding areas, as well as felons possessing firearms, and felony evading of police. The complaint further alleged these crimes were committed by active criminal street gang members, for the purpose of benefiting their gang. In March 2015, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Departments Major Crimes Bureau, Burglary-Robbery Task Force (BRTF), began an investigation into a large scale sophisticated residential burglary crew, comprised of suspected South Los Angeles gang members. The initial residential burglary occurred in early March 2015, in Claremont, where Claremont Police Detectives determined suspects were making phone calls into homes prior to commit-

ting the burglary. Claremont Police detectives continued this investigation and shared the information with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Departments Major Crimes Bureau’s Burglary-Robbery Task Force. In the following months, LASD BRTF investigators determined the Claremont burglary was part of a well-organized southern California residential burglary “crew,” comprised of Los Angeles area gang members. LASD BRTF investigators identified six additional suspects who were actively participated in this burglary ring, four of which are currently being sought for apprehension: Anthony Souice, charged with two residential burglaries; Joshua Johnson, charged with three residential burglaries; Alexus Netterville, charged with five residential burglaries; and Eric Netterville, charged with three residential burglaries. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Burglary-Robbery Task Force investigators believe this burglary “crew” is responsible for dozens, if not hundreds of residential burglaries throughout southern California. They mainly travelled in expensive luxury vehicles and rental

cars, generally knocking on a front door to determine if a resident was home. If no one answered, they would force entry through a rear door or window, ransack the home, stealing cash, jewelry, weapons, and other valuables. Typically, the gold and jewelry would be sold all over Los Angeles at “Cash for Gold” businesses and pawn items at locals Pawn shops. This investigation is ongoing and future arrests are imminent. Daytime residential burglaries are a significant criminal concern throughout Southern California. Citizens are reminded to be vigilant in quickly notifying local law enforcement immediately if suspicious persons or vehicles are seen in and around their neighborhood. Anyone with information about these incidents is encouraged to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Major Crimes Bureau, Burglary-Robbery Task Force at (562) 946-7187. If you prefer to provide information anonymously, you may call “Crime Stoppers” by dialing (800) 222-8477, or texting the letters TIPLA plus your tip to CRIMES (274637), or by using the website http://lacrimestoppers.org.

The City of El Monte recently charged two developers who were attempting to fraudulently build the El Monte Transit Village. After a long legal battle, John Leung and Jean Lang were indicted and plead not guilty to the charges on Monday, June 6. This has been a longtime battle with the city of El Monte, the former developers have been pushing this project since 2009. The city has spent over $5 million on legal fees, fighting the project for over five years. Leung and Lang have real estate companies, TV LLC and JT LLC, which were allegedly used to commit fraud, instead of properly building the El Monte Transit Village. The two were alleged to have been attempting to find a way to stop the city from collecting the $4 million loan for the project, as well as forging signatures. They also allegedly tried to obtain lines of credit from banks, according to the court documents. Leung and Lang are foreign Chinese investors who were a part of the El Monte Transit Village through the

El Monte Regional Center, which gives EB-5 visas and US green cards to those who invest $500,000 locally. The US Citizenship and Immigration Services terminated the regional center after the debacle over possible fraudulent activity, in an attempt to prevent further fraud. “Unique fraud risks identified in the program included uncertainties in verifying that the funds invested were obtained lawfully and various investment-related schemes to defraud investors. These assessments were one-time efforts; however, USCIS officials noted that fraud risks in the EB-5 Program are constantly evolving, and they continually identify new fraud schemes,” the Government Accountability Office publicly stated in 2015. “USCIS does not have documented plans to conduct regular future risk assessments, in accordance with fraud prevention practices, which could help inform efforts to identify and address evolving program risks.” The company TV LLC, which Leung and Lang are part of, sued the city of El Monte for $18 million, over

Pasadena Police to Wear Body Cameras

Developers of Failed El Monte Transit Village Indicted for Fraud

By Annette Semerdjian

backing out of the contract for developing El Monte Transit Village. Yet the city won the lawsuit in 2012. In a March 2008 compass blueprint case study for the El Monte Transit Village, it stated the intention of the project as “creating a transitoriented urban village adjacent to the downtown.” The project planned to create a plaza in the surrounding area of the El Monte Transit Center, which would include a walking path just west of the transit along the riverside of Rio Hondo. The issue of fraud in EB-5 programs is not limited to this case in El Monte, but rather, it is a national issue. In late 2015, US Congress extended the program until September 2016, in hopes of reforming and re-authorizing EB-5. Some suggested reforms included increasing investment minimum and the removing per-country quota. An estimated $39 million in state grants were wasted on the failure of this project and more costs are going to further legal action on the city’s part.

GRAND OPENING

Council Authorizes Five-Year Contract With Taser International By Gus Herrera On Monday, June 13, the Pasadena City Council approved the acquisition of body-worn camera systems for the police department. Item 10 on the night’s agenda, which was approved without any opposition, authorizes the city manager to enter into a five-year contract with Taser International Inc. to, “furnish and deliver software, hardware, and services” for the body camera system. The system is made up of 300 cameras and a “highly configurable backend system.” The cost authorized is not to exceed $1.53 million. This amount consists of the base contract, valued at $1.39 million, “and a contingency of $139,296.” Not included, is an additional $134,000 which the city expects will be required to upgrade their network, in order to handle the new amounts of data. In addition to the technology acquired, Item 10 also

The staff report states that the project will take “approximately four months to complete” and initial implementation will cost “$471,291.” - Courtesy photo

authorized the addition of two full-time equivalent positions to oversee the operations and maintenance of the camera systems. According to city staff, “These positions are absolutely vital to the success of the body worn camera program. Funding the system without authorizing added personnel would significantly reduce the Police Department’s operation capacity.”

The staff report states that the project will take “approximately four months to complete” and initial implementation will cost “$471,291.” The city will likely have to upgrade network equipment in order to manage the new video data.

FBI Announces $50,000 Reward, National Campaign to Identify East Area Rapist/Golden State Killer 40 Year-Old Cold Case Unites Law Enforcement Agencies in the Hunt for Subject Who Stalked Citizens in Multiple California Counties On Wednesday, June 15, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department, Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office, and Contra Costa Sheriff’s Department held a press conference to announce the launch of a reward and national campaign to help identify the East Area Rapist/Golden State Killer, a violent serial burglar, rapist, and murderer who terrorized multiple communities in California throughout the 1970s and 1980s. The digital media campaign includes the launch of a webpage (www.fbi.gov/ EastAreaRapist), digital billboards throughout the country; social media outreach on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube; and audio broadcasts via podcasts and radio PSAs. The public can play an active role in helping law enforcement find the subject by sharing links to the website and official social media content. Law enforcement asks

the public to consider the following information when reviewing information about the case: - Did they live in one of the areas of criminal activity and remember someone in the area who matches the physical description of the subject or may have been known to spend a considerable amount of time in the areas? - Have they discovered a hidden collection of items among the belongings of a friend or family member - notably coins and jewelry - as described on the FBI webpage about the crimes? The subject, who may be 60 to 75 years old now, was described as a White malem standing approximately fivefeet-ten-inches-tall, with blond or light brown hair, and an athletic build. He may have had an interest or training in military or law enforcement techniques as he was familiar and proficient with firearms. People who know the subject may not believe him

capable of such crimes. He may not have exhibited violent tendencies or have a criminal history. Detectives have DNA evidence from some of the crime scenes which can either positively link or exclude a suspect. This enables investigators to quickly exclude innocent parties and the public should not hesitate to provide information - even if it is the name or address of an individual who resided in the areas of the crimes - as many parties will be quickly excluded by a simple, non-invasive test. Between 1976 and 1986,

this single subject committed 12 homicides, approximately 45 rapes, and multiple residential burglaries in the state of California. All of the crimes have been linked by DNA and/or details of the crimes. His victims ranged in age from 13 to 41 and included women home alone, woman at home with their children, and couples. The subject was active in the greater Sacramento area from June 1976 to February 1978. Burglaries and rapes began occurring in the Sacramento area during the sum-

mer of 1976. During these crimes, the subject would ransack the homes of his victims and take small items such as coins, jewelry, and identification. These cases include the homes of families, couples, and single women; burglaries in a neighborhood tended to precede clusters of sexual assaults. On Feb. 2, 1978, Rancho Cordova couple Sergeant Brian Maggiore and his wife, Katie, were on an evening walk with their dog, chased by the subject who overcame the couple, and shot at close range. His activity continued primarily in the East Bay Area of Northern California in 1979 and, by October 1979, his activity escalated into rapes and homicides/ attempted homicides along the California Coast with homicides in Goleta (Oct. 10, 1979, Dec. 3, 1979, and July 27, 1981), Ventura (March 16, 1980), Laguna Niguel (Aug. 19, 1980), and Irvine (Feb. 6, 1981 and May 5, 1986). During the commission of the

homicides, the subject tied up both victims, raped the female victim, and then murdered the couple. After July of 1981, no associated incidents are known to have been reported for five years. In 1986, an 18-year-old woman was raped and murdered in Irvine. No additional crimes have been connected to the subject after this incident. A graphic illustrating the general location of these crimes is available on the FBI’s webpage. Law enforcement is seeking any information that may help identify the subject, dubbed the “East Area Rapist” in Sacramento. He has also been called the “Original Night Stalker,” “Diamond Knot Killer,” and, more recently, the “Golden State Killer.” Individuals with information about the subject may call 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800225-5324). Additionally, information may be submitted to the FBI’s online tip line, tips.fbi.gov.

Bright Shiny Day … Jimmy Cliff The hearse carrying the body of Muhammad Ali weaved through Louisville, Ky., as thousands stood and watched the 17-car motorcade slowly pass by. Some of the thousands just wanted to touch the car carrying the body. Others tossed flowers that landed on the windshield (the driver had to turn on his windshield wipers - other times police along the route would clear the windshield). American flags filled the air with the sound, “Ali, Ali, Ali.” Others ran along the car, trying to keep the pace, with cell phones in one hand, trying to get that elusive “selfie” with the other. Ali’s message has always been, “stand up for what you believe in.” The clenched fists in the air, people standing tall, and no bent backs all along the route, reflected that message today. The late Maya Angelou said … people will forget what you said. People will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. - Ralph R. Walker

Responses to Longtime ‘Monrovian Gets HS Diploma 74 Years Late’ (6/9/16 Issue) Dear Editor: Congratulations to Julius Parker on his recent graduation from Monrovia High – 74 years after he left during his senior year to join the US Army’s Special Services in Eu-

rope during World War II. Julius Parker came to Monrovia in 1933 from Oklahoma. Soon after his arrival, the Long Beach earthquake caused great damage to his elementary school: the thensegregated Huntington Elementary (now site of MUSD Headquarters). Parker’s parents insisted on homeschooling until they won the lawsuit that forced MUSD to build a structurally-sound campus for the Black and Mexican children. During Mr. Parker’s senior year at Monrovia High, there were only two other African American students in his class: Leroy Criss (who went on to be a Tuskeegee Airman), and Betty Fisher (daughter of Julian Fisher). Betty became a nurse after graduating from LA County School of Nursing. Betty also helped the war effort by continuously writing the Black Monrovians in the front, giving them encouragement and hometown news. She wrote Julius Parker, Leroy Criss, Forrest Hooks, Norman Ross, and Philip Adams; Adams did not make it home. Julius Parker continued to care about Monrovia and the education of its children. During Monrovia High’s race riots in the 1960s, Julius was one of many parents who voluntarily went on campus to maintain peace for many days. He said, “I rather lose a day of pay than a child.” Thanks to decades of determination and courage by people like Julius Parker, we can say “Congrats to all of Monrovia High’s Class of 2016. You live in a better world.” - Susie Ling, associate professor of History and Asian American Studies, Pasadena City College Via MonroviaWeekly. com

Congratulations Mr. Julius Parker. What a story! I was so impressed by your story in the Monrovia Weekly. Thank you for your service to this great country during an extremely difficult time in our history! - Ruth Russell Via MonroviaWeekly. com

Any person acting for or helping this type of barbaric atrocity has to be stopped and punished. I am a vegetarian but I accept the majority of people are meat eaters. It is one thing to ensure a good life for all animals and, if we must, then put them to death humanely for food consumption, but to torture the poor animals and have them living in such abhorrent disgraceful conditions is an act that only subversives could do. These people need to be locked up at best. Please, please do all you can to put an end to this today. Thank you. - Janice Milne Via ArcadiaWeekly.com

Coping With The Tragedy at Gay Club in Orlando …

Dear Editor: As I write this on a Monday afternoon after the terrible massacre in Orlando, Fla., at a gay nightclub, I am still wrapping my brain around what happened. Even though this tragedy happened over the weekend, the shock and horror of this event has not lessened over time. We, as well as the survivors and authorities, are left to grapple with questions of what happened and why. The media has made much of the fact that the shooter in Orlando made a 911 call claiming his allegiance to ISIS. However, reports go on to maintain that this connection was minimal at best. The facts of this are that we are dealing with a “lone wolf” who was hell-bent on creating terror. Let me make something perfectly clear. At the very core of this tragedy is the fact

that this was an attack on the LGBT community. It was a gay nightclub that was targeted. It was the LGBT community that was gunned downed and murdered. Whether that shooter had Islamic ties or not is beside the point. This was murder directed at the LGBT community. This is simply hate in action. And the real tragedy of this is that we are now in a time in this country where the expression of hate has been legitimized by the candidacy and rhetoric of Donald Trump. In responding to this tragedy Donald Trump called for a tough clampdown on Muslim immigration. He also falsely claimed that the shooter was born outside of the United States though he was born to American parents of Afghan descent in New York. Donald Trump has given the darkest layer of American society a voice and an outlet for hatred and discrimination. We live in a political climate where it is seen as ok to be racist, xenophobic, or misogynistic. After all, the reasoning goes, if Donald Trump can say this crap, then it is ok to vent hatred. We are told by Donald and his ilk to be afraid of those who are different from us and to build a wall to keep those out who want to come into this country to share in the freedom that we enjoy. He calls Mexicans rapists and murderers. He wants to prevent people from entering this country based solely on their religion. He has called women fat pigs and worse. He demeans personally anyone who disagrees with him. We have forgotten the words that are emblazoned at the base of the Statue of Liberty: Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. “Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” To make the situation

worse, Donald Trump repeatedly attacks the press, which he sees as an easy target. In fact, he has stated that he wants to loosen liable laws to make it easier to sue the press when they report something Donald does not like. We have entered a season of hate and division in this country that is unprecedented. So what do we do? To begin with we do not let fear and hatred defeat our God given sense of love, grace, and mercy. Love is stronger than hate and we need to remember that. We need to stop building walls between us and start building bridges between our different communities. We need to realize that what unites us in this country is far more important than what divides us. The LGBT Community is no stranger to violence. In a 2011 analysis of FBI hate-crime statistics, the Southern Poverty Law Center found that “LGBT people are more than twice as likely to be the target of a violent hate-crime, than Jews or black people,” said Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the center. Because the population of LGBT Americans is relatively small and the number of hate crimes against that group is significant, LGBT individuals face a higher risk than other groups of being the victim of an attack. “They are more than four times as likely as Muslims, and almost 14 times as likely as Latinos,” Potok added. Sexual orientation motivated roughly 20 percent of hate crimes in 2013, according to the FBI; the only factor that accounted for more was race. The bottom line is that we must remain vigilant and not back down. We are not going to let a threat or someone else’s bigotry and hatred stop us from doing what is right. - Reverend Rick Eisenlord, M.Div, Pastor Good Shepherd Church Pasadena

Reader’s Response to ‘Kathryn Barger Takes Early Lead … ’ (6/9/16 Issue) There is no guarantee that Congresswoman Chu or Congressman Schiff will return to their respective districts.

entertainment Chalk Rep Turns Garage Into Stage

By Nathaniel Cayanan

laudia de Vasco is both a thespian and a Pasadena homeowner. Both details may not have any direct connection, but they are the reasons that her neighbors might soon find her yard full of theatre-goers watching actors perform in her garage. The actors will be performing “In Case of Emergency,” a play produced by Chalk Repertory, a theatre company which is, according to their mission statement, “dedicated to producing classical and contemporary plays in unconventional spaces.” For the last few weeks, Chalk Rep has been popping up canopies in yards and piling packing boxes into garages around the Los Angeles area, specifically at Atwater Village, Montrose, and soon de Vasco’s Pasadena home, to perform an 80-minute, no intermission show. Written by playwright and founding member Ruth McKee, “In Case of Emergency” tells the story of Meredith and Emma, two sisters who, with the help of emergency preparation expert Alex, sort boxes filled with emergency supplies and line the walls of their garage. What ends up being sorted out instead, however, is the heavy emotional baggage they carry with them. While she is not performing in the play herself, de Vasco has several reasons to offer her garage. A professional actress who even has a play, “Neva,” at this year’s Hollywood Fringe Festival, de Vasco believes that Chalk Rep’s site-specific plays offer young artists an opportunity to perform and audiences a much needed fresh take on theatre.

PASTOR MARK DEMEL

Amy Ellenberger (Meredith) and Daniel Rubiano (Alex).

“I truly believe there is a change happening in theatre,” she says. “Society has been changing, but traditional theatre has been doing the same thing, just adding social media marketing. I think the future of theatre is to create more event experience-like productions.” Such sentiments are shared with the founders and performers of Chalk Rep, especially when thinking about the Los Angeles area, which is now seeing an in-flux of younger audiences hungry for new mediums of performing arts other than cinema or traditional theatre. “How do we address theatre in a film town?” says Amy Ellenberger, who plays Meredith and is also one of the founding members of Chalk Rep. “This is our answer. It’s this hybrid of film and theatre, where you can get this intimacy that you get in film, but also the energy of live performance that you

wouldn’t get in film.” But why specifically a garage? McKee explains that the realization of using a garage arose when she and her colleagues first started putting out their works in a variety of non-traditional venues. ”Let’s find spaces first and create works that go into those spaces,” she says. “A garage is a perfect theatrical space. It has a proscenium and instead of a curtain, it has a garage door.” But of course, to hold audiences for 80 full minutes, McKee had to think long and hard about her characters and what kind of story would unfold in such a space. “Things in a garage are things waiting to be used,” she says. “They’re things we don’t need anymore, memories or supplies for some catastrophe. I started thinking about ways we can be prepared for an emergency, both emotionally and physically. That’s when I started thinking of these characters.”

The unpredictable nature of performing a play in a live setting may add unique challenges, such as unwanted noise. But, as Ellenberger explains, “Any of those normal outdoor sounds actually work for you because you can work it into the intensity of the show.” In fact, at the Atwater Village performance, a loud helicopter flying above the neighborhood seemed fortuitous given the events of the play and allowed Ellenberger to execute her improv background. To her, “It’s part of the excitement.” Performances of “In Case of Emergency” take place Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m., in Pasadena from June 24 to 26 and July 1 to 3. All tickets range from $20 to $30 (dynamic pricing – ticket prices increase each weekend). Addresses are released upon ticket purchase.

GROUND BREAKING FORECLOSURE RULING!

The California Supreme Court ruled on February 18, 2016 that a homeowner has the right to challenge his lender's authority to foreclose based upon void assignments of the loan to third parties. The high court expressly upheld an earlier California Appellate opinion called Glaski v Bank of America. This decision could set aside many foreclosures and/or obtain monetary damages, settle lawsuits with modifications and prevent foreclosures from happening in the first place. This decision will hopefully provide our firm with even more legal leverage to not only set aside many foreclosures and /or obtain money damages, but settle lawsuits with modifications and prevent foreclosures from happening in the first place.

There was one curiosity at the event Sunday, Miss Teen Pasadena (I did not know we had a Miss Pasadena – for that matter, nor did the Mayor) was present for the festivities and even the organizers were unfamiliar with the young woman’s title … but apparently the young woman lives in Irwindale, was a bondefide volunteer working with the children who just so happened to don a sash which said Miss Pasadena, who subsequently posed for numerous “official” photos.

Nearby ‘Dark Skies’ By Roshan Perera

strange occurrence happened on the night of the 1994 Northridge Earthquake. As documented by various local emergency centers, people were calling in to report a strange silvery cloud in the sky. What they were seeing, for the first time in their lives, was our galaxy, the Milky Way. Because the earthquake had temporarily shut down the power grid, there was no light pollution to block out the stars that many of us never get to see. A study released by the journal Science Advances estimates that nearly 80 percent of Americans can no longer see a clear night sky due to light pollution. Those of us living in the San Gabriel Valley are no exception. Within the large metropolis we live in, we are constantly shrouded by the soft orange glow of street lights, or the crisp blue LEDs of our bus and train stations. However, we are lucky enough to live relatively near a few dark sky sites. A dark sky sight is an area that is free from the

of residual light pollution that comes from the Palm Desert area, but the major city lights from Los Angeles and San Diego cannot be seen. The second area is

Death Valley National Park. This is a complete black sky sight, meaning that no artificial lights will obstruct or haze up your views of the night sky.

In recognition of Great Outdoors (GO) Month, it might be a great outing to go visit one of these National Parks see the sky in all its natural glory. Both of these sites are approximately three hours away and can be easily accessed from major highways. Joshua Tree also has numerous campsites, hiking trails, rock climbing and bouldering spots. Death Valley is a bit further north, and more isolated from larger cities, but is still offers camping and hiking. But, it is advisable to not make Death Valley your first outdoor hiking and camping experience. It has its name for a reason! There are hotels and tour groups that operate out of Stovepipe Wells within Death Valley that offer more comfortable amenities for those that want to experience the dark sky. (If you have been to either one of these places and would like to share some of the photos you have taken with us, we would love to showcase them on our website along with this article. This is one natural wonder some of us may never be able to see, except in pictures).

It’s time to celebrate and remember. So many moments have led up to this graduation day. Feel the pride. And imagine the possibilities for the future. When the new journey through college begins, we’re here to help. wellsfargo.com/getcollegeready 1-800-456-1551

Wellema Hat Company By Gus Herrera

ody Wellema, founder of Wellema Hat Company, is much more than a gifted hat-maker. He is an artist and a historian - a man whose business is truly the manifestation of his passion and attention-to-detail. Wellema’s call to hatmaking was birthed from a combination of his business savvy and personal interests. His love for the lifestyle, essence, and culture of the early 20th century led him to discover a passion for hats, “I love the ‘20s, ‘30s, ‘40s. That era of life that was so simple to me, so much different than now. It wasn’t about who’s the top celebrity or who has the most ‘likes’ on Facebook, or any of that stuff … you lived your life, an honest life, and you worked for your family. With the great depression and the wars – it was tough, but it was about getting through those times in the simplest manner and loving life.” Wellema loves silent films and music from that era and he enjoys looking at old historical photographs and family portraits. Soon, he discovered a common denomi-

nator in everything he saw: everyone was wearing hats – in every movie, in every old photograph. Hats were a staple of the time, both for fashion and practicality. As a result, hats became symbolic of that era for Wellema – they became the artistic expression for his appreciation of that time period. A few years ago, Wellema’s keen eye began to notice a change in fashion trends and he saw it as an opportunity to make a difference, “I saw hats were becoming very

popular again - very trendy and fashionable, and also very functional. But I also saw a lot of hats that were not up to the quality that they used to be. Today, you can go anywhere and get a hat, but the quality isn’t anywhere close to where it used to be.” So he decided to take matters into his own hands and began to research hatmaking, a process which was, at first, quite experimental, “I would take old vintage hats from that era and take them apart to see how they did it … I would say 80 to 90 per-

cent of it was self-taught and then, when I decided this is truly what I wanted to do, I reached out to some people who had been doing it for many years.” Wellema revealed that, in the beginning, hat-makers were hesitant to reveal trade secrets. But as time went on, he began earning the respect of the hat-making community and, slowly-but-surely, he was able to cultivate the critical business contacts that, today, allow him to create his products from materials of the highest quality.

Wellema Hat Company’s motto reads, “Hats Made to Outlast the Head it Sits on,” and all their products are meant to withstand the test of time. Wellema envisions each hat he makes as a potential family heirloom, an item that can be passed down from generation to generation. Each hat is made-to-order and the components are American-made. Wellema

hats are made from premium fur-felt, which comes from America’s last-standing felting company in Tennessee. Felts are available in three different durable tiers of quality that will each allow your hat to endure all the elements. The interior sweatbands are made from premium leather, from a mom-and-pop leather company based in the Midwest. For the exterior, you can select from both vintage and modern trims, in all different colors. Wellema creates all hats by hand, using traditional wooden blocks to taper and shape, some of which are over 100 years old. In addition to custommade hats, Wellema Hat Company offers cleaning and blocking services. The store also carries a variety of high quality, handmade leather accessories, grooming materials (i.e. shaving cream, beard oil, soap), and more unique gifts. Wellema Hat Company is located at 837 E. Mariposa St. in Altadena. For more information, call (626) 720-4132, email orders@wellemahatco.com, or visit www.wellemahatco. com.

626 Golden Streets Comes to Duarte Starting Sunday, June 26, at 5 a.m., the long awaited “626 Golden Streets” Regional Open Streets event will require numerous street closures along the event route including several in the City of Duarte. The City of Duarte’s portion of the 626 Golden Streets event includes the following roadway segments: Duarte Road from Mountain Avenue to Highland Avenue; Highland Avenue from Duarte Road to Central Avenue; Central Avenue from Highland Avenue to Crestfield Avenue; Crestfield Avenue from Central Avenue to Huntington Drive; and Huntington Drive from Crestfield Avenue to the San Gabriel River Bridge. The San Gabriel River Bridge will be closed to all traffic. Duarte residents can expect that traffic along Huntington Drive, Buena Vista Avenue, and Duarte Road will be very heavy during the event and residents should take appropriate measures to plan ahead and use alternative routes. Modeled after the thousands of other "open streets" or "ciclovia" events across the United States, the “626

Golden Streets” 17-mile event will open stretches of roadway from South Pasadena to Azusa for people to walk, jog, skate, bike, and more, between the hours of 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Organizers are excited to bring this concept to seven San Gabriel Valley cities for the first time. Specifically, the seven city events will close certain city streets to motorists from South Pasadena, San Marino, Arcadia, Monrovia, Duarte, and finally Irwindale to Azusa. Each city will operate a festival “Hub” and Duarte’s will be located directly in front of the City of Hope campus on Duarte Road. Duarte’s “Hub” will include lots of food trucks, information tables, live demonstrations, and entertainment throughout the event. Please log on to www.626goldenstreets.com for more event information. If you do not want to bike or walk, but still want to enjoy hours of live entertainment and delicious food, shuttle bus service to the event “Hub” festival area will be available from Duarte City Hall/Senior Center, North-

view and Beardslee School campuses. (There will be no vehicle access to the “Hub” festival area). 626 Golden Streets has no start line or finish line (unless you do The Train Run). Participants may join and depart the route anywhere they wish. Event organizers only ask that participants be considerate and courteous of others along the way, obey all traffic and pedestrian laws, and enjoy the event at your own pace. Make sure to check out the many local businesses, organizations, community groups, and more who will be found across the route. This event will be a great deal of fun for your entire family even if you do not participate in the “Open Streets” part of the event. For more road detour and closure information, call Duarte Public Safety (626) 357-7938 or Duarte City Hall (626) 357-7931 or log on to www.accessduarte.com for updates. Participating communities include: South Pasadena, San Marino, Arcadia, Monrovia, Duarte, Irwindale, Azusa, and Los Angeles County.

The more one observes the Sierra Madre City Council meetings, the more one wonders as to why the city manager would place a given item on the agenda? Here are some of the items that were presented in a recent council meeting: First, there was the financial report given by a staff person. This causes one to wonder - what exactly is the city treasurer's job? Shouldn't he be given the financial information? Then a lady at the pulpit asked about the penalty, in excess of the allocation, that was established by the city. The city manager's answer was a penalty of double the tier-four rate, even if the excess was still in tierthree. Why four rates in the first place, when according to state law, the rate must be based upon cost and any other greater charges are a penalty in itself? This is particularly bad, since the four rates that were established were based upon facility information. This is explicitly flawed when, since Feb. 16, 2016,

all of the city's water supply comes from our aquifer and the state's conservation rules do not apply! Then came the presentation of combining the city library director position with the community services/recreation department. The first question is - why, since the library is a special occupation, which has no interest in other city programs? What was not stated was that the bottom-line reason was in order to raise the pay schedule for the library position. For a city that is short of finances, why should any raises be in order? Suggestion: try advertising for the position among Sierra Madre residences, where the salary is not a crucial problem. This was followed by the city manager's presentation of the charges to the city clerk's work program and hiring a staff person to do the council minutes and also have this person occupy a desk at city hall, in order to work in the day-to-day affairs, which are the jurisdic-

tion of the elected city clerk. All of this in order to justify a salary cut. It did not mention the authority and responsibility of the city clerk's office. The stated justification was to lessen the work-load, in order to justify the salary reduction. There was no mention of the fact that the clerk's salary has not increased for many, many years, even though the workload has multiplied. They also talked about reducing the content of the minutes, to only include the city's motion that passed. In other words, make no record of what the people say from the pulpit? Why do that? Doesn't the city want to record the criticism of the people? In the end, action was postponed, due to the fact that the new clerk was elected on the terms of record. Little was said about the city treasurer and putting the city manager in the power position. Why not try to reduce the city manager's position and cut her salary? - Sierra Madre Watchman

returned to the podium and ran an outstanding race to win with a time of 1:17:50; Mireya won back-to-back Mount Wilson Trail Races in 2013 and 2014. The night before the race, families enjoyed the annual Pasta Feed Dinner in Kersting Court. Mount Wilson Committee members catered the dinner which included pasta, salad, breadsticks (donated by StoneFire Grill), and delicious rice crispy treats (provided by Sierra Madre Civic Club). In addition to loading up on carbohydrates, attendees were able to enter an opportunity raffle, purchase souvenirs, and check-in for both the Trail Race and the Kids’ Fun Run. Returning this year was a high performance road bicycle, donated by CENTRIC Bicycles of Sierra Madre and raffled off on race day. Partial proceeds from the night benefited Sierra Madre Search and Rescue which provides race day safety support on the trail the day of the race. Fun was had by all on the day of the race. Even those not racing enjoyed themselves either by cheering on the sidelines, visiting the vendor booths, and socializing in the Beer Garden.

from Mission Road to the 10 Freeway, dividing the work into three phases. In addition to the pavement work, this project will also include curb and gutter repairs, new accessible pedestrian ramps, bicycle lane striping, and an additional $1.3 million in sewer repairs. The entire three-phase paving project will cost a total of approximately $3.8 million. The city secured a loan in this amount from the California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank to complete the

project sooner, and will pay back the loan using Measure R funds. The city council and city staff members have made a concerted effort to prioritize infrastructure repairs in recent years, listening to concerns from residents about road conditions. Last year, the city completed the Las Tunas Drive Pavement Rehabilitation Project, resurfacing a onemile stretch of the nine-lane arterial and adding new features such as the city’s first

chance of becoming a victim is less than 10 in 1,000 for 90 percent of the cities recognized. With half of the cities making their second appearance on the list, safety is more than a priority - it is a way of life. Whether it is a desert jewel like the number one ranked city, Imperial, or a bustling urban oasis like Mission Viejo, these closeknit communities balance the carefree California life-

bike lanes. Last year, the city paved 3.6 miles of roads and this year plans to pave 1.4 miles, totaling more than $2 million. In addition, following the completion of the ACE San Gabriel Trench project in 2017, ACE will pay to resurface more than 3.5 miles of roads used as haul routes during construction, including San Gabriel Boulevard and Mission Road.

To identify the 10 safest cities in California, Safewise reviewed the most recent FBI Crime Report statistics from 2014, along with population data. The process eliminated all cities with fewer than 10,000 residents, as well as any cities that failed to submit a complete crime report to the FBI.

From there, Safewise evaluated the remaining cities. They narrowed the selections down based on the number of reported violent crimes (aggravated assault, murder, rape, and robbery) and property crimes (burglary, arson, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft) in each city. To further level the playing field, Safewise calculated the likelihood of these crimes occurring out of 1,000 people in each city.

Back to School Backpack and School Supply Drive School is out and summer is upon us. You might be taking a moment to catch your breath, but at Friends In Deed, we are already thinking ahead to the fall and our annual Back-To-School Backpack & School Supply Drive. This is an important event for us and we always look forward to it. Many of our families cannot afford the expenses that a new school year brings and it can be very stressful. Expenses like new clothes and shoes for their ever-growing children, fees for school programs and projects, and a backpack with the essential items to fill it. We count it a privilege to help with this stressful time by providing backpacks, already filled with school supplies to children in our Food Pantry community. We also look forward to helping kids really enjoy that first day of school. Kids always compare themselves to other kids and our goal is for them to feel confident that they at least have the school supplies they need for a successful and enjoyable new school year. Of course, we do not make this happen all by ourselves. Every year, lots of folks have jumped on the band wagon to make the Back-toSchool Backpack & School Supply Drive one of which we can be proud. Last year, we gave out an

If you would like to join this event, here are some things to consider: 1. Backpacks should be sturdy enough to handle the rigors of a student's day and the crazy amount of books they heft around, especially for our high school students. 2. Please avoid the colors red and blue. Please deliver empty

backpacks and any school supplies to Friends In Deed (444 E. Washington Blvd., Pasadena), by Wednesday, July 20. We will fill them and distribute them the following week on Tuesday, July 26, and Wednesday, July 27. If you have any questions, contact Tim at the Food Pantry via email at pantry@ friendsindeedpas.org or by calling (626) 797-6072.

Students Working With Renowned Local Researchers and Professionals This summer, 22 high school students are stepping out of the classroom and into the real world to apply their knowledge to hands-on, cutting-edge research and professional projects with renowned local scientists, doctors, professors, and experts in Pasadena and Los Angeles. The EXPLORE program, created and administered by Pasadena-based Institute for Educational Advancement (IEA), links gifted and high potential secondary students from diverse racial, ethnic, cultural, geographic, and socio-economic backgrounds with mentors in Pasadena and Los Angeles who advance each participant’s skills through the application of knowledge, hands-on research, and exposure to real world experiences. In an effort to ensure as many qualified students as possible have access to this experience, IEA provides scholarships to

those students in need. “Giving the students access to college level instruction is a great benefit,” said Stan Kong, professor at the Art Center for College and Design and EXPLORE mentor. “Also, the mentors have agreed to work with these prequalified students who are all active participants who want to be here. “ Pasadena-area placements include industrial design at Art Center College of Design and astronomy at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Other placements in the Los Angeles area include pediatric medical research at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles; non-profit leadership at CoachArt; biomathematics, evolutionary biology, computer science, and neuroscience at UCLA; and architecture, software security, and clinical pharmacy at USC. In its inaugural year,

IEA’s EXPLORE program offers a unique opportunity for high-potential secondary students to learn about working in a variety of professional settings. Externs advance their skills through the pursuit of knowledge, involvement in research, and exposure to learning experiences. Each participant grows intellectually and personally, while making pertinent and lasting connections with their mentors and peers. The EXPLORE program will run through August 12 in Los Angeles and Pasadena. Since 1998, IEA has been dedicated to the whole child, nurturing gifted children ages 2 to 18. IEA gives students the tools to work toward actualizing their full intellectual and personal potential in a safe and supportive environment.

June College Search Guide

By May S. Ruiz

une typically marks the end of another school year. It’s a great time to look at what your children have accomplished, and what benchmarks they need to achieve to propel them to the next school year. In the distant past, kids spent their summer just having fun, maybe working temporary or seasonal jobs, and not thinking about school for a while. But in today’s world, that’s not what’s happening. An update on teen employment released last month by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, an outplacement career and transition service company, reveals that only 25 percent of teens will find a job this summer, down 14 percent from last year. According to the survey, instead of pursuing traditional jobs, teenagers are volunteering, enrolling in educational programs or doing other things to pad their college applications. The increased competition to gain admission to very selective universities has forced teens to fill summer hours with enrichment activities and going to third-world countries to dig up latrines. While I am not advocating that your children just lie inert for three months as a reward for having successfully finished one school year, I would suggest a less frantic pace. Sometimes, letting their mind and body recharge would do more good than drilling for the PSATs, SATs, SAT IIs, ACTs, APs, and whatever other standardized test acronyms and initials are out there. Having said that though, there is the reality that the gap between school years is so big that kids forget everything they learned then go back to school in the fall unprepared for the work. Parents should let their children have a variety of fun, educational, productive activities so they don’t become stale and uninspired. FRESHMAN

Ninth grade is behind them! Your children’s grades should indicate that they took high school seriously and that they put all their efforts at getting good marks. They should have already made plans for summer programs, internships and community service work. They should engage in activities that truly reflect their passion. Instead of joining a group of kids building houses in Guatemala, they might consider

an activity that would really mean something to them. College admissions officers see the same pursuit on all the resumes they receive that your children would not be doing anything memorable. Encourage them to think outside the box, avoid the herd mentality. If your kids enjoy music and performance, for instance, they might consider organizing an original musical to be presented to seniors at your city’s retirement center. In January of this year, the Harvard Graduate School of Education released a seminal report called “Turning the Tide: Inspiring Concern for Others and the Common Good Through College Admissions,” which was endorsed by 80 colleges and universities. It points out that today’s process puts much emphasis on personal success rather than service for others. It recommends students engage in: meaningful, sustained community service; collective action that takes on community challenges; authentic experiences in diversity; work that helps them appreciate the contributions of the past generations; contributions to one’s family. All the recommendations in the study, however, are courses of action that high school counselors are already preaching to students. So in that regard, it really isn’t anything new. What’s new is the strong emphasis on community service which the study wants admissions officers to use for making their decisions. The jury is still out on whether following the recommendations this study is advocating will actually fix the college application process that so many believe is broken. In the meantime, it is incumbent upon you to encourage your children to do well in school and to put a lot of thought into what community service they want to embark on. SOPHOMORE

Your children’s end-ofyear marks in 10th grade should have improved over last year’s if they didn’t do well in their freshman year. College admissions officers want to see students who continue to better themselves. They need to take whatever standardized tests are required – ACT or June SAT subject tests are the norm. They also need to continue the community service ac-

tivity they started last summer. While it is advisable to show consistency for admissions officers to know that your kids have a passion for such work, they could do a variation of it; they don’t want to be monotonous. They can start researching about colleges, specifically looking for the institutions offering the courses they want to major in.

make sure they have taken all the required courses for graduation and college (the UCs have their A - G requirements that need to be completed); and lining up teachers they would like to ask for recommendations.

SENIOR Well, your children have accomplished a major milestone – successfully completing high school and getting accepted into a college or university! This pe-

riod in their life will never again be repeated, so let them revel in what they have achieved. Give yourself a pat on the back while you’re at it, you’ve been a major influence in whatever path they choose to take from here.

JUNIOR

The school year that just ended was a pivotal one for your children as it would be the last full year that college admissions officers will see on your kids’ application. It should reflect your children’s efforts at getting the best marks they could muster, and an improvement over the first two years of high school. Make sure your children have their community service work, internship, and enrichment program ready for summer. These activities should be a continuation of the previous years’. This is going to be their busiest summer with standardized tests like the ACT, SAT, SAT IIs, and APs. If they have not seen the schools they are considering applying to, this would be their last chance to visit college campuses. You might consider making it a fun summer trip for the family (my daughter and I spent two weeks visiting universities as part of our summer vacation). Your children should start thinking about their essay topic; meeting with their school counselor to

health Dry Eye: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment

20 | JUNE 16, 2016 - June 22, 2016

Grittiness, burning, irritation, redness, itching, tearing - if these symptoms sound familiar, you could be one of the estimated 10 million Americans who suffer from dry eye. Dry eye is a condition where tears lack sufficient moisture and lubrication,

which are necessary to maintain good eye health and clear vision. Tears not only wash away dust, but also soothe the eyes, provide oxygen and nutrients to the cornea, and help defend against eye infections by removing harmful bacteria. This condition has a multitude of

causes, but generally stems from the following factors: - Age: as Americans age, eyes naturally become drier. Typically, people older than 65 experience some dry eye symptoms. - Gender: women are more likely to develop dry eye due to hormonal changes dur-

ing pregnancy, from using oral contraceptives and following menopause. - Medications: decongestants, antihistamines, and antidepressants can reduce tear production and increase the likelihood for dry eye. - Medical Conditions: health issues associated with

arthritis, diabetes, Sjogren’s syndrome, and thyroid problems can lead to dry eye symptoms. - Environment: dry climates and exposure to wind and smoke may trigger dry eye. - Eyewear/Surgery: contact lenses may cause dry eye or make eyes less comfortable if they are dry, and some eye surgeries may lead to a temporary decrease in tear production. - Cosmetics: when the lid margin is coated with heavy makeup, it can block the openings of the oily glands, which help lubricate the eye. Nutrition plays a big role in health, including vision, and dry eye and nutrition are closely linked. Studies have pointed to a simple and effective treatment for dry eye - eating more of the right fish. Salmon, tuna, herring, mackerel and other cold-water fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and can help reduce inflammation, enhance tear production, and support the eye’s oily outer layer by increasing oil that flows from the glands at the end of the eyelids (called the meibomian glands). If fish does not sound appealing, nutritional supple-

ments can also be incorporated into a diet to help ease the symptoms of dry eyes. Artificial tear drops, ointments, and capsules can also be used to help stimulate or maintain tear production and guard against future tear loss. The American Optometric Association(AOA) recommends consulting an eye doctor to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment. The AOA also recommends adults have annual eye exams.

How Clean Is Your Hospital Room? Most people scheduled for a trip to the hospital expect the facility to be clean, or at least not harboring organisms that can cause life-threatening illness. However, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 75,000 people in the United States die from hospital-acquired infections each year. Many hospitals struggle to prevent the spread of two common, but potentially lifethreatening bacteria in particular: Clostridium difficile (C. diff) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Poor hand hygiene, overuse of antibiotics, and inadequate disinfection practices are often contributors to the problem. Consumer Reports recently published rankings of which US hospitals do best and worst at fighting bacteria that cause infections. Only 6 percent of hospitals scored well against both C. diff and MRSA.

Below are three ways hospitals can destroy these organisms and keep patients safe: - Hand hygiene: proper hand hygiene means handwashing/disinfection by all health care workers before and after caring for each patient. Setting up hand sanitizer stations and reminding hospital staff of hand hygiene protocol has been shown to improve compliance and reduce the spread of infection. - Antibiotic stewardship: use broad-spectrum antibiotics only when necessary; excessive use of these drugs can promote the development of resistant organisms. - Environmental disinfection: pulsed xenon ultraviolet (UV) light can destroy the infectious capability of bacteria and viruses. Here is how it works- full spectrum UV light passes through the cell walls of bacteria, bacterial spores and viruses, where it damages the DNA, RNA, and proteins. This renders the organisms inert and incapable of causing infection.

‘California’s Botanical Landscapes’

Get ready for Summer and the new YOU

New Publication from the California Native Plant Society The California Native Plant Society (CNPS) recently announced the release of its latest book through CNPS Press, “California’s Botanical Landscapes: A Pictorial View of the State’s Vegetation.” Written and edited by more than a dozen of the state’s leading plant ecologists and published by CNPS Press, the book explores, through vivid photographs and naturalist descriptions, California’s plant communities and the complex web of interactions that both create and sustain them. “Vegetation is the fabric of ecosystems and California’s vegetation is one of the richest and most intricate tapestries of varied forests, shrub-lands, and grasslands anywhere on Earth,” states Susan Harrison, a professor

of environmental science and policy at UC Davis. “ By beautifully describing and explaining this colorful tapestry, ‘California’s Botanical Landscapes’ will inspire people to keep studying, appreciating, and conserving California’s exceptional vegetation.” Arranged by chapter into 14 California eco-regions, the book delves into the geographical, biological, and human factors which give rise to a plant community’s continued presence - or disappearance - in its habitat. Included are examples of the unique relationships between wildlife and vegetation. “Today, I have never felt more hopeful about the future of conserving California’s landscapes,” says Todd Keeler-Wolf, a senior

vegetation ecologist with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and one the book’s co-editors. “Much of this hopefulness is inspired by new and effective strategies shared between wildlife resources and vegetation, and many of the important ecological links between wildlife and vegetation are highlighted right here in this book.” “California’s Botanical Landscapes: A Pictorial View of the State’s Vegetation” is available for immediate purchase through the CNPS online store at http:// store.cnps.org and also through local CNPS chapters. The publication joins over 40 books already published by CNPS Press on topics relating to the understanding and appreciation of native California flora.

LASD and FBI Respond to Worst Mass Shooting in US History By Terry Miller On June 12, just after 2 a.m., an Orlando Police Officer working extra duty at the Pulse Nightclub, located at 1912 S. Orange Ave., responded to shots fired. The officer engaged in a gun battle with that suspect and the suspect went deeper into the club where more shots were fired. The incident then turned into a hostage situation. The suspect – later identified as 29-year-old Omar Mir Seddique Mateen of Fort Pierce, Fla. – continued shooting inside the club. At 5 a.m., the decision was made to breach the club and rescue the hostages, according to Orlando Police Department (OPD) Chief John Mina. “Officers were able to rescue 30 hostages and lead them to safety. Our SWAT Officers exchanged gunfire with the suspect, killing him. The gunman, an American citizen living in Florida, legally purchased the firearms within the last week,” said Trevor Velinor, assistant special agent in charge of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives Tampa field office. The Florida Department of Law Enforcement will conduct the Officer Involved Shooting investigation. The 11 OPD officers involved are relieved of duty, as is standard in any officer involved shooting. A total of 50 people were killed in the shooting; an additional 53 were injured. Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said Sunday afternoon: “This is probably the most difficult day in the history of Orlando.” While there are no specific or credible threats re-

ceived by law enforcement for the greater Los Angeles area, LASD and FBI personnel maintain a heightened state of situational awareness and remain vigilant in the protection of our communities. Sheriff Jim McDonnell has communicated with local, state, and federal partners, as a result of the senseless attack in Florida. The Department’s Operation Center is open and actively managed events surrounding the Gay Pride Parade and Festival in the City of West Hollywood. Hundreds of uniformed deputies were on-duty to ensure the safety of all those participating in that event. Out of an abundance of caution, LASD enhanced security presence for the event and had tactical units at-the-ready, to prevent and respond to any circumstances. A male was detained in the City of Santa Monica Sunday morning, June 12, who was in possession of weapons and other dangerous material. Any possible nexus with this individual and the Pride event in West Hollywood is being investigated by the FBI. There has been no claim of responsibility for the attack on jihadi forums, but ISIS sympathizers have reacted by praising the attack on pro-Islamic State forums. "We know enough to say this was an act of terror and act of hate," President Obama said in an address to the nation from the White House. While the violence could have hit any American community, "This is an especially heartbreaking day for our friends who are

lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender," he said. The nightclub Pulse, where the shootings took place, issued the following statement: “Like everyone in the country, I am devastated about the horrific events that have taken place today. Pulse, and the men and women who work there, have been my family for nearly 15 years. From the beginning, Pulse has served as a place of love and acceptance for the LGBTQ community. I want to express my profound sadness and condolences to all who have lost loved ones. Please know that my grief and heart are with you.” – Barbara Poma, owner. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department employs thousands of uniformed deputy sheriffs who are on-duty 24-hours a day, seven days a week, patrolling and protecting the many diverse and varying communities we serve throughout Los Angeles County. LASD asks the public to remain vigilant and report any information about potential incidents to their local law enforcement. If you prefer to provide information anonymously, you may call “Crime Stoppers” by dialing (800) 2228477, or texting the letters TIPLA plus your tips to CRIMES (274637), or by using the website http://lacrimestoppers.org. If you see something of an emergency nature, please call 911. Vigils are being held in communities around the world in remembrance of the 49 people killed in the Orlando massacre early Sunday, June 12. For more information: www.weareorlando.org.

Probate Notices NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF AGUSTIN R. SALCEDO Case No. 16STPB00983

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of AGUSTIN R. SALCEDO A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Juan Salcedo in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Juan Salcedo 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.

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 the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

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 the property.

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. NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.com/ MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/ TrusteeServices.aspx using the file number assigned to this case 2014-03783-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The Band and Being Frivolous

an we get down to basics here and get real close and personal? There are some things in life we have in common but we tend not to talk about. Perhaps that is for the better, but I think sometimes we should share. It helps just to know we are not alone in dealing with life's little foibles. In a recent letter from my sister, she shared some of her "downer" feelings. I wrote back: "I'm sitting in my favorite garden spot, trying to replenish my soul. Like you, I've had a kind of rough last several days. Trying to stay up in a down time is not always easy. Aching, feeling sick, and losing your dexterity can take a lot out

of you. And sometimes we just have to moan and groan about it for some time, so then we can get on with enjoying the good we have. How are we going to know it is good if we don't have anything to compare it to? "When you talk about bloating, I can sure relate. Part of it is age and how our bodies react, then when you add medications, our stomachs become freakin' drums. After I eat I can thump on mine with my hand and literally sound like part of a band. There really isn't much relief either, until I change from a drum to a horn and begin to toot." After writing that, in my box of gems I found the following: "Old folks are worth a fortune with silver in their hair, gold in their teeth, stones

in their kidneys, lead in their feet, and gas in their stomachs." And: "I have become a little older since I saw you last and a few changes have come into my life since then. Frankly, I have become quite a frivolous old gal. I am seeing five gentlemen every day. “As soon as I wake up, Will Power helps me get out of bed. Then I go to see John. Then Charlie Horse comes along. When he is here he takes a lot of my time and attention. When he leaves, Arthur Ritis shows up and stays the rest of the day. He doesn't like to stay in one place very long, so he takes me from joint to joint. After such a busy day, I'm really tired and glad to go to bed with Ben Gay. What a life!”

A timeless classic: 1974 chrome-bumper MGB.

Not All Body Shops are Created Equal By Terry Miller

any think I am mad (read, really nuts) driving an old convertible British Sports every day on Southern California roads and freeways … Well, they might be right, however, it really is a whole lot of fun, combined with a unique love that only another MG or LBC (Little British Car) enthusiast would understand. The greatest moments are early evenings, when the cooler breezes hit the face as I drive my 1974 chromebumper MGB around town … there are a few of us “nutters” around but we are definitely outnumbered by generic and giant SUV’s and sedans. Recently, I had a bit of a fender bender, quite literally. Luckily for me, the chap who hit me was very nice and, most of all, well-insured. Now the real fun begins … trying to get an estimate for repairs for cars made before 1975. It was far more difficult than I thought. At least 10 so-called “reputable” body shops in Pasadena alone would not even look at the

car, as they said their estimating software does not go that far back. Now you would think these guys would want the business, right? Finally, I was lucky enough to find a guy who not only was willing to give me an estimate, but also took the time to really get to know and appreciate the car as much as I do. All Brite Custom Body Shop in Monrovia was recommended to me by a longtime friend Hal Leavens - everyone knows Hal, he is “Mr. Monrovia.” So off I zoom to meet the two George chaps who run the joint (it is a father and son business).George’s Panossian Jr. and Sr. are part of a family operation that also includes George Sr.’s brother John Panossian. With over 30 years of experience, the two George’s at All Brite were precisely what I needed a few weeks ago. Experienced, honest and moreover thrilled to work on a unique car. It was a bit of a challenge to get all the original parts to replace but All Brite handled every aspect of that perfectly

… and went the extra mile to ensure the “B” was brought back from life-support. The attention to detail is what makes All Brite stand out from the crowded world of body shops on Walnut in Pasadena … the shop is small, compared to many body shops, but this is where they outshine ‘em all … they can see the forest for the trees. They take that extra time to go over what you need and truly get to know the customer, his car, and appreciate the workmanship that went into creating one of the Abingdon’s most timeless classics - the 1974 chrome-bumper MGB. When George called me to say the car was ready, I was stunned at the beauty of the work. Everyone who knows the story says the same thing. “ That is one heck of a great body shop!” All Brite Custom Auto Body Repair is located at 131 E. Foothill Blvd. in Monrovia.

cluding Bobby Flay, Elizabeth Banks, Carson Kressley, Bob Baffert, and Victor Espinoza. The sweepstakes, titled Racing with Stars VIP Sweepstakes, presented by America’s Best Racing, is open now through Oct. 9, 2016. The new initiative was developed to add to the excitement of the 2016 Breeders’ Cup Challenge Series, which is made up of 78 “Win and You’re In” races that take place in 12 countries around the world and guarantee the winning horses a starting spot in the 2016 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The television and social-media driven sweepstakes will be centered around Breeders’ Cup’s nine telecasts on NBC Sports and will offer participants the chance to win one of four once-in-a-lifetime experiences hosted by the Celebrity Ambassadors at the 2016 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. “Over the past several years, the Breeders’ Cup has established itself as not only a premier sporting event, but also as one of the world’s most prestigious lifestyle and entertainment events, and the new celebrity sweepstakes reaffirms our commitment to this vision,” said Breeders’ Cup President and CEO Craig Fravel. “We are excited to provide yet another way for our fans to engage with the sport throughout the summer leading up to the Breeders’ Cup, and to celebrate with the winners in the fall at Santa Anita. We especially thank our Ambassadors for their continued support and for helping to promote our great sport to a broader audience.” Following the sweepstakes launch participants will have the chance to win four once-in-a-lifetime experiences at the 2016 Breeders’ Cup World Championships that highlight different elements of the Breed-

ers’ Cup experience, from the excitement of world championship racing, to rich fashion traditions to celebrity treatment, to a culinary extravaganza. Each experience is hosted by a different celebrity ambassador and shaped by their area of expertise. “We are thrilled to support the Racing with the Stars VIP Sweepstakes,” said James L. Gagliano, president and chief operating officer of The Jockey Club. “The sweepstakes perfectly aligns with America’s Best Racing’s mission to increase the profile and visibility of North America’s best Thoroughbred racing events, and we look forward to building excitement and anticipation for the 2016 Breeders’ Cup World Championships this summer.” To enter the sweepstakes, visit BreedersCupVIP.com. Fans may only enter to win one of the four experiences. During the sweepstakes, fans can earn points by engaging with and sharing specific Breeders’ Cup related content. For every 100 points earned, fans receive an extra entry in the sweepstakes. Points are awarded for a variety of activities, such as liking Breeders’ Cup on social media, retweeting certain official Breeders’ Cup tweets, or watching the Breeders’ Cup Challenge telecasts on NBC Sports and following the unique Sweepstakes calls-to-action that will be presented during each show. “Breeders’ Cup weekend is marked on my calendar every year. I grew up going to the races with my dad and my love of the sport has only grown,” said Elizabeth Banks, Breeders’ Cup Ambassador. “From the racing and the fashion, to the beautiful tracks and parties, Breeders’ Cup has it all.” The 2016 Breeders’ Cup World Championships will be held on Friday, Nov. 4 and Saturday, Nov. 5 at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia.
