Residents are advised that the Transportation Department’s parking division continues to clear a backlog of pending preferential parking permit applications. This year, the department experienced an increase in the number of parking permit applications which caused a delay in issuing some parking permits.

On Thursday night, July 7, a peaceful protest in response to the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile turned deadly, as five Dallas police officers were killed and seven others wounded by at least one sniper. Representative Judy Chu (CA-27) released the following statement: “The past few days have been days of unimaginable hurt across our country. Each day, we have woken to the news of the latest tragedy. First, two young men were shot seemingly without reason by those meant to protect them. And then last night’s horrific scene in Dallas left five police officers dead. I am heartbroken and resolved to ending this cycle of pain. “My thoughts are with the families of those brave Dallas police officers, as well as the families of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile. But, as we mourn, we must remember that we do not mourn murder through murder. Nor do we create justice through injustice. Now is the time for all of us to come together. “Now is the time to end

Golden State Water Company Adjusts Foothill District Conservation Standard

Effective immediately, customers may water outdoor landscapes up to three days per week and state-issued conservation mandates have been replaced with new voluntary reduction targets. All outdoor irrigation must occur before 8 a.m. or after 7 p.m., and should not exceed 10 minutes per station. Restrictions do not apply for trees or edible vegetation watered solely by drip or micro-spray systems. “Our customers have done a tremendous job reducing water use during this drought, and we encourage our communities to remain diligent with their conservation efforts,” said Benjamin Lewis, general manager of the Foothill District for Golden State Water. “It’s important that we keep our existing conservation momentum, as the state will likely consider new conservation regulations in 2017. While some parts of the state received much-needed relief from dry conditions during the winter and spring months, California remains in a drought emergency and we must make efficient water use a way of life to protect our state’s vulner-

able water supplies.” The adjusted conservation standards are aligned with the State Water Resources Control Board’s (State Water Board) shift to locally-developed conservation strategies, as outlined in the state’s emergency drought regulations issued on May 18, 2016. These standards could be revised pending the State Water Board’s verification of data on drought supply reliability and demand, or developments related to local water supply conditions and conservation. Golden State Water will continue to monitor and assess local conditions and implement measures as appropriate based on water reliability and sustainability. Additionally, customers

are reminded that the following practices that waste potable water are prohibited in California, per Governor Jerry Brown’s Executive Order issued on May 9, 2016: - Hosing off sidewalks, driveways, and other hardscapes. - Washing a motor vehicle with a hose, unless the hose is fitted with a shut-off nozzle. - Operating a fountain or decorative water feature, unless the water is part of a recirculating system. - Watering outdoor landscapes in a manner that causes excess runoff or within 48 hours following measurable precipitation. - Irrigation with potable water of ornamental turf on public street medians. Please visit gswater.com for additional information on local conservation standards, drought updates, and conservation resources, or call Golden State Water’s 24-hour customer service center at (800) 999-4033. Customers can follow Golden State Water on Twitter (@GoldenStateH2O) for real-time information about the drought and local water service.

Weekend Closures on Foothill Freeway (I-210)

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will close all lanes of the westbound Foothill Freeway (I-210) between Lake Avenue and Mountain Street for two 55-hour weekend closures as part of a pavement rehabilitation project. The eastbound Ventura Freeway (SR-134) connector to westbound I-210 will also be closed. The westbound I-210 Marengo Avenue and Mountain Street off-ramps and Walnut Street on-ramp will need to be closed throughout the weekend closures as well. The first closure will begin Friday, July 15 at 10 p.m. Motorists should expect delays and are strongly advised to plan ahead, use alternate routes, avoid the area or use public transit. Additionally, motorists can check traffic conditions before they leave by calling 511 or visiting the Caltrans Quickmap at quickmap.dot.ca.gov.

The 55-hour full weekend closures will take place: - Friday, July 15 at 10 p.m. through Monday, July 18 at 5 a.m. - Friday, July 29 at 10 p.m. through Monday, Aug. 1 at 5 a.m. The Foothill Freeway is a major thoroughfare, serving commuters between Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties. As a result of heavy use, the road has experienced extensive wear. The closures are part of a $148.5 million pavement rehabilitation project in both directions of I-210 in the cities of Glendale, La Cañada Flintridge, and Pasadena. Once the project is completed in 2018 the new surface will provide a smoother, safer drive for motorists, reduce time required for maintenance, and minimize the need for further lane closures. Flatiron West Inc. is the contractor on this project. Motorists are advised to “Be Work Zone Alert.”

cancer survivors. I tip my cap to MLB for showing support for people who have been touched by cancer, but this initiative seems incongruous, since many of the foods sold in baseball stadiums - like hot dogs and hamburgers - can cause cancer. Selling meat at stadiums where people are encouraged to take a stand against cancer makes about as much sense as serving booze at a benefit for Mothers Against Drunk Driving or doughnuts at a Weight Watchers meeting. I urge people to really take a stand against cancer as well as cruelty to animals by choosing vegan fare at the ballpark and beyond. Many stadiums, including Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, offer an array of tasty vegan options. And if MLB encourages fans to eat vegan food, it will actually help strike out - instead of perpetuate - cancer.

Hershey Felder Keeps Irving Berlin’s Legacy Alive By Nathaniel Cayanan Over 40 years ago, the legendary American songwriter Irving Berlin appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and performed perhaps his most famous song, “God Bless America.” This particular episode was a special one. It was Berlin’s 80th birthday, and Sullivan, along with an array of celebrities, paid tribute to Berlin’s impressive career that saw an endless list of songs that won awards and would forever become embedded in American culture. As Berlin sang with a voice filled with wisdom, he was then joined by a chorus of boy scouts and girl scouts, singing in one voice what came to be known as the nation’s unofficial anthem. This image of the elderly Berlin, surrounded by youngsters singing his famous song, is a symbol

of both a celebration for a man’s career and also a promise made by generations to come, that his legacy would be preserved. Today, this task of preserving Berlin’s work and influence has been undertaken by musician and actor Hershey Felder. Felder, along with Director Trevor Hay, will be performing “Hershey Felder as Irving Berlin” at The Pasadena Playhouse. Portraying Berlin and performing some of his popular songs such as “God Bless America,” “Always,” and “White Christmas,” Felder tells Berlin’s sweeping story, covering his life as a young boy escaping anti-Semitism in Russia and his journey in becoming the epitome of patriotism and the “American Dream.” Ironically, however, Felder’s interest in Berlin was not one that came naturally. In fact, according to Felder, at first, “I was not

drawn to him at all, me being a classical person. It was the suggestion from other people that led me to understand that this was something worth doing. Little did I know what a genius this man was - what a chronicler of the ages, what an incredible, incredible individual.” With the help of Berlin’s

children and grandchildren, who wanted to make sure that Felder maintained a level of authenticity, Felder created a show that saw incredible success when it first opened at Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles. Surely, the music had much to do with that success. “The music is what

resonates first and foremost, of course,” Felder says. “It’s what the audiences are familiar with.” But, the show is not just some guy dressed up like a long passed musician and performing his music. To Felder, it’s about using the music to tell a story. “One of the things about Irving Ber-

lin that is remarkable, more than anything, is that he told stories in songs,” he explains. “When you connect the music to the actual story itself, it’s a remarkable experience what audiences go through. What makes (the show) so powerful is the music and the story, all of it wrapped into one.” It goes without saying that playing a real person who had such a significant influence on American society can be nerve-racking. But, when asked if he ever gets intimidated, Felder responds with a laugh, “Oh it always is intimidating. Anything done well requires a tremendous amount of work. But you know, you get over it. You get to work. That’s it.” “Hershey Felder as Irving Berlin” will play from July 19 to Aug. 7 at The Pasadena Playhouse (39 S. El Molino Ave.). Ticket prices range from $22 to $102 and can be purchased online at www. pasadenaplayhouse.org or by calling (626) 356-7529.

‘The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee’ Challenges ‘Finalists’ at Sierra Madre Playhouse Six eager, nervous sixthgrade finalists are set for “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.” Happily, it is being held right in the middle of “Putnam County”’ at the Sierra Madre Playhouse, making it easy for us to attend. Some of us might even be asked to compete and be put to the test with such words as “h-i-l-ar-i-o-u-s,” which this musical romp most certainly is! As is typical of spelling bees, each contestant is given a word to spell. One misstep and the dreaded bell signals defeat. We, the Spelling Bee audience, applaud each correct spelling and groan for each wrong one.

Adults play the roles, but they are so well cast it is easy to see them as “tweens.” Teenage-appropriate garb, designed by A. Jeffrey Schoenberg, enhance the illusion. As the sparkling musical plays out, the lyrics often glimpse the backstories, sometimes poignant, of each contestant. They’re an eclectic bunch, with off-beat home lives or their own idiosyncrasies. The contestants are: - Barfee (Stanton Kane Morales), who spells out each word with his foot. Olive(Christina Gerla), who pines for her ever-elsewhere parents. - Chip (Joey Acuna,

Jr.), whose crush on a girl leads to his spelling error. - Logainne (Hannah Leventhal), who struggles with two overbearing dads’ expectations. - Leaf (Robert Michael Parkison), who placed third and is here only because #1 and #2 had to attend a Bar Mitzvah. - Marcy (Joy Regullano), who resists her family’s pressure for her to excel in all things. Presiding over the Bee are Rona Lisa Peretti and Vice Principal Douglas Panch. Rona introduces each speller - but not before she giddily reminds us she’d been a winner in earlier days.

Panch stolidly pronounces words we’ve likely never heard of and gives definitions - ridiculous ones, since this is a comedy. They are played by Gina D’Acciaro and Richard Van Slyke, respectively. And what happens when the bell goes “ding?” Jaq Galliano as “comfort counselor” Mitch Mahoney gives the loser a juice box and a big hug! Joe Lawrence’s music and Robert Marra’s energetic choreography make for exciting summertime theatre. Catchy tunes include “My Friend, the Dictionary,” “Pandemonium,” and “I’m Not That Smart.”

Emily Hopfauf designed the school gymnasium setting, complete with bleachers and a basketball backboard. Chalk and blackboards in Diane Siegel’s interactive lobby design invite us to fill in words’ missing letters. Robert Marra directs “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” which opened on Broadway in 2005 and was nominated for six Tony Awards, winning two. John Sparks, Christian Lebano, and Estelle Campbell are producers. Despite “Spelling Bee” being about a children’s event, the play is not recommended for children under 14 years, as it con-

tains mild profanity and some ribald humor. Let this also be cautionary for adults who might find such content objectionable. Performances run weekends through Aug. 21. Showtimes: Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m.; Sunday matinee at 2:30 p.m. Tickets: $35 regular, $32 seniors, $25 youths (14 to 20). Not recommended for ages 14 and under. For more information, call (626) 355-4318 or visit the website: www.sierramadreplayhouse.org. Online ticketing is available. The Playhouse is at 87 W.

Michael Feinstein Brings Sinatra Project Back to Arboretum for One Night Only On the heels of last summer’s sold out hit concert, Principal Pops Conductor Michael Feinstein brings the second installment of his Grammy-nominated Sinatra Project back to the Los Angeles Arboretum by popular demand on Saturday, July 30. Hear many more of Sinatra’s biggest hits and maybe a few you have never heard before, as Feinstein shares both his legendary music and personal anecdotes recalling the life and times of Ol’ Blue Eyes. The multi-platinumselling, Emmy and Grammy-nominated Feinstein puts down the baton and picks up the microphone for one night only in this exclusive engagement with the Pasadena POPS. An old-fashioned crooner with luxuriant vocals that meld the traditions of old and new, no one is better poised to pay tribute to Ol’ Blue Eyes. Dubbed the “Ambassador of the Great

American Songbook” for his preserving, presenting, and interpreting of that seminal body of work, Feinstein has curated an evening celebrating the brilliance of “The Voice” as only he can. “Paying tribute to Frank Sinatra is a very exciting thing for me because I’m able to put together a show that’s very different from what anybody else does. For one reason I knew him and have a very different perspective about his musical taste in that he loved Classical Music … I’m very careful in combining swing arrangements with great orchestrations of the ballads. Some that are vintage charts that have not been heard publicly in many years or ever, and in other instances finding arrangements that will pay tribute to him … My approach to Sinatra really starts with the music. It’s not about the persona; it’s not about the hat. It’s about celebrating the

man as a musician and it’s finding the unique arrangements that give a broader sense of who he is musically and as a personality.” In addition to timeless favorites like “Pennies from Heaven” and “Young at Heart,” Feinstein will uncover rare jewels from times past. The public will hear for the very first time the original arrangement for “Three Coins in the Fountain” in complete as Sinatra originally sang it, since the original was cut in half for the film performance. “Finding things like that is what makes it exciting for me,” commented Feinstein. All Pasadena POPS concerts are held at the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden. Grounds open for picnicking and dining at 5:30 p.m. and performances begin at 7:30 p.m. Do not miss the best outdoor dinner party in town with spacious circular table seating with fine

plus specialty ice creams by Choctál, and the venue now offers the convenience of two full beverage centers serving fine wines, beer, coffee, and soft drinks. Audiences get the ultimate outdoor concert experience with large LED video screens to see Michael Feinstein and the orchestra up close, superior sound, and the high-quality production value that is a signature of the Pasadena POPS. Patrons may also visit

the Pasadena Humane Society’s Mobile Adoption Unit, which will be on-site prior to each concert with deserving animals in need of a forever home as part of the Pups for POPS program. For those who want to make a night of it, exclusive hotel packages are available for POPS patrons at Pasadena’s landmark Hotel Constance. The Arboretum is located at 301 N. Baldwin Ave. in Arcadia. Subscribers may pre-purchase parking on-site at the Arboretum, and all concertgoers enjoy free parking at the adjacent Westfield Santa Anita shopping center with complimentary non-stop shuttle service to the Arboretum’s main entrance. Single tickets start at $25 and are available by calling the box office at (626) 793-7172, online at www. PasadenaSymphony-Pops. org, or at the Arboretum on the day of the concert.

For Your Love – The Yardbirds By Terry Miller Back in England, particularly northern England, there was a plethora of exciting Rock ‘n’ Roll in the 1960s - The Beatles (the Mods), with their amazing vocals and studio experimentation; The Rolling Stones, with their “Rocker Moniker” and radically raw sound; The Who, with their wild live shows; The Kinks, with their wit and repartee - combined with “music hall sensibility,” according to one critic … and then, there were The Yardbirds: the quintessential Blues/Rock band that launched the careers of such guitarists as Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. Though The Yardbirds called it quits by the late 1960s, longtime drummer and founding member Jim McCarty has kept The Yardbirds’ music alive over the years by touring with other players who are drawn by the band’s “seminal mix of Blues, Soul, and psychedelia,” according to Steve Pfarrers, a writer with the Daily Hampshire Gazette. In 1992, the band was inducted into the hall of fame when U2 guitarist, The Edge, was quoted as saying the Yardbirds were “loud and exciting.” It (the induction into the hall of fame) was a pivotal moment in McCarty’s career. It is not very often you

get to witness legends, but next week, if you go to the Rose, that is exactly what you will see when McCarty gets behind the drum kit here in Pasadena on Friday, July 22. Formed in 1960s’ London, The Yardbirds helped kick-start the careers of some of the most legendary guitarists of all time – Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. Co-founded by McCarty with singer Keith Relf, rhythm guitarist Chris Dreja, bass player Paul Samwell-Smith, and lead guitarist Top Topham, the band released a string of hits, including “For Your Love,” “Over Under Sideways Down,” and “Heart Full Of Soul,” subsequently changing the modern face of really great Rock and Blues music. The album, popularly known as “Roger the Engineer” and widely considered the Yardbirds’ masterpiece, includes unique influences of Indian/Middle Eastern music. McCarty told Pasadena Independent, “that was a fun record to make, with no pressure at all … ” In 1966, the band also released its earliest live recordings, with Sonny Boy Williamson, as Sonny Boy Williamson & The Yardbirds. The Yardbirds with the core membership of Relf, McCarty, and Dreja performed its last show on July 7, 1968. Page, with outstand-

ing touring obligations for the Yardbirds, assembled a new lineup: his old bassist friend John Paul Jones, singer Robert Plant, and drummer John Bonham. The New Yardbirds would ultimately become Led Zeppelin. We spoke with McCarty on Tuesday, July 12, while he was in Toronto for a solo gig, before Friday’s (July 22) show in Pasadena: Terry Miller: Thanks for taking the time to talk with us today. Jim McCarty: My pleasure, Terry. TM: With all the amazing talent stemming from your early years in The Yardbirds … do you have any specific memories when dealing with the larger-than-life egos? JM: A lot of ups and downs, really. We were very excited to come to America, of course … between New York and California. Well, it’s all fantastic really and we’ve played with some amazing musicians over the years. TM: Was Jeff Beck’s style of guitar the most influential in creating the ultimate Yardbirds sound (i.e. fuzz/distortion etc.)? JM: Oh yes, without a doubt. TM: How does it feel to be on the road again? JM: It’s tiring, but the energy in the audience is amazing and keeps us going! TM: Many music afi-

cionados say ‘65-‘66 Yardbirds were the best years in music history. The sound you created was (and is) by far the most influential in Blues Rock history. JM: Yes definitely the best line up … even though Jeff was up and down. TM: The Yardbirds and McCarty survived the ‘60s … unquestionably the most explosive and important decade for music … what are your thoughts on commercial music today and the seemingly ever-present (and lifeless) drum machine patterns that seem to dominate young peoples’ music taste? JM: Digital music has really changed the business. With iTunes, a band mate can download 50 albums for virtually nothing. You can’t make a record these days and expect to make any serious money. TM: And who was your personal major influence when it comes to drums? JM: Oh, I think Joe Morello, the drummer with Dave Brubeck, and all the great Jazz drummers of that era. TM: What can we expect from your upcoming Pasadena gig … which just happens to fall a couple of days before your birthday? JM: The guys are all American, funnily enough, but they all honor the original music and sound … we’ve got a few “new” songs like

“Evil Hearted You,” which we haven’t played in a while. TM: When you’re not playing drums or on the road, what makes you tick … how do you unwind? JM: There are always so many variables … you never really know. It’s very up and down. It’s a great business and we’ve been playing so long … I just love playing the drums, writing songs, and singing. TM: Thanks so much for your time and good luck with the rest of the tour. JM: Thanks, Terry and come by and say “Hi” next week.

TM: I most certainly will, thanks Jim, wonderful speaking with you. Do not miss the chance to see Jim McCarty and the Yardbirds next week (Friday, July 22) at the Rose in Pasadena (245 E. Green St.).

Arcadia Rock Climbing By Gus Herrera Arcadia Rock Climbing, also known as the ARC, successfully combines the professionalism of a specialized training center, with the familyfriendly environment of a local playground. General Manager Lisa Berryman, who has been at the helm of the operation for seven years, was seemingly born for her leading role at the ARC, “I’ve been in gym business my entire life … I worked at a health spa, managed nutrition centers in gyms … my mom was a P.E. teacher and I even married professional body builder.” Despite having spent

a lifetime in the fitness industry, she had never managed a gym quite like this – partly because the ARC is a very rare breed. Housed in what used to be a glass warehouse, the ARC is a massive space of wall-to-wall excitement. Each wall is laced with countless rubber “rocks,” which form colorful “paths” for climbers of all ages and backgrounds to explore. These paths (sometimes referred to as “problems”) change every other week and come in several different difficulties, which are each designed to help train climbers for the challenges of climbing outdoors.

Rock climbing is a fun activity suited for anything from corporate events to a bachelorette party. - Photo by Gus Herrera

Not only does the variety help keep things fresh, ensuring that every visit to the ARC is a new experience, but, more importantly, it helps expose climbers to different situations, hopefully sharpening the adaptability of their physical and mental skills. Everybody on staff is a dedicated rock climber, so there is a certain level of excitement and artistic expression that goes into the path-setting every other Sunday. As a result, Mondays after new paths are set have become very pop-

ular, with members flocking in to try and crack the ARC’s newest rock riddles. Berryman describes how these paths/problems challenge the mind, as well as the body, “you’re supposed to really step back and figure out where you’re going to put your hands and feet. The level of difficulty can be really extreme – it can get to a level where you have to be climbing with what we call ‘pinches,’ just using fingers basically.” Climbing is fun for all ages and, second to running, is one of the more natural workouts for the human body. The urge to climb starts at a young age - in the words of Berryman, “It starts when you’re really little and you’re climbing all over the house, then your parents say, ‘get off that!’” Although climbing is an extreme workout, which tests the entire body, it can be considered entertainment, as much as fitness. The ARC provides a friendly environment for all sorts of events: Cub Scout merit badge overnights, birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette parties,

corporate team-building events, and more. Bookings include access to the ARC’s party room (tables/ chairs included), arm wrestling table, ping pong table, slack line, and plenty of comfortable couches. The ARC’s Summer Camp for kids is currently underway and registration is still open. From 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on weekdays, participants enjoy climbing/ rope games, team-building exercises, obstacle courses, the ARC’s famous rope swing, and more. A snack is provided each day and at the conclusion of the week, on Fridays, there is a massive water balloon war for the kids to cool off from all the climbing. The ARC also offers an Intro to Bouldering class,

as well as a one-hour Staff Belay Lesson. Day passes are available for casual guests, while pre-paid memberships cater to the more dedicated climbers. The ARC is also deeply involved with the community, hosting special programs with local organizations such as Optimist Youth Home and Trinity Home, to name a couple. For the past 10 years, they have also been officially integrated into La Canada Middle School’s physical fitness program. Arcadia Rock Climbing is located at 305 N.

Understanding the Generations By Dorothy Denne In one of her books, Judith Viorst wrote of the importance of keeping both the elderly and the young in our lives, in order to maintain an understanding and open dialogue between generations. She suggested the young might gain a better understanding of what the old cope with by putting rubber gloves on their hands, smearing Vaseline on their glasses, putting cotton in their ears, and marbles in their shoes. When I read that, I was on the outer edge of that younger generation. Time passed quickly

and one day I realized I could remove the marbles from my shoes. My feet had developed their own. Thick soft soles on my newly-purchased, old-lady-like shoes helped me to cope with my “marble-y” feet. Next to go was the Vaseline - I replaced it with bifocals, then trifocals. I let the optometrist convince me that no visible lines were necessary, blended progressives were the way to go. Well, his definition of progressive differs from mine. I see it simply as meaning that when I put them on I can’t clearly see a damn thing at any distance. I’m back to bifocals, where I see the close and the far - and

guess at the in-between. Now that my body has its own marbles and Vaseline, I’ve discovered it no longer needs the cotton either, at least not in one ear. I stuck my pinkie finger in my left ear to give it a good scratch. The world went very quiet. Took my finger out and there was sound. Disturbing, but as long as I keep my finger out of my left ear, it picks up most of what the right one misses. The fingers? They are totally confused regarding what to hold onto and what to drop. I do believe my body is completely out of the younger generation. I do hope they understand.

TAKE-OUT

For many women, eye makeup is an essential part of being properly dressed, as important as a stylish outfit or nice shoes. But while mascara and eyeliner can create different looks, from subtle to striking, they can also make you sick. The problem: eye makeup can be a breeding ground for bacteria. We all have a few microbes, like Staphylococcus and Streptococcus, living around our eyes. When eyeliner or mascara is applied, some of those bugs stick to the applicator and are carried back to the makeup container. Eye products are supposed to contain preservatives to keep bacteria from growing. But some products do not have enough. And over time, the preservative’s effectiveness declines. As a result, the bacteria on an eyeliner pencil or mascara applicator grow and multiply. Each time you apply makeup, you get bigger and bigger doses of bacteria - enough to cause serious infections.

Eye makeup can be a breeding ground for bacteria.

“Every year, many women end up with eye infections from cosmetics,” warns the University of Rochester Medical Center. “In rare cases, women have been temporarily or permanently blinded by an eye cosmetic, according to the FDA.” You can, however, prevent these problems and others with these simple tips: - Do not share makeup to avoid spreading bacteria.

- Replace your eye makeup regularly, at least every three to four months. - Remove eye makeup at the end of every day. - Practice good eyelid hygiene. - Keep updated on the latest eyelid-eyelash hygiene clinical safety reports. Christine Sindt, OD, Clinical Associate Professor of Ophthalmology at the University of Iowa, recommends wiping the eyes daily with a new an-

tibacterial eyelid cleanser, such as Avenova from NovaBay Pharmaceuticals. “One recent study showed that Avenova dramatically reduces the amount of Staphylococcus and other bacteria around the eye - by more than 99 percent,” says Sindt. “Avenova contains a solution of pure hypochlorous acid, a substance used by the body as a natural defense against pathogens, but is completely harmless to skin.” “I encourage women to talk to their doctors about daily eye hygiene using safe and effective products, such as Avenova, which can be the best defense against infections and other common eye problems, like dry eye and Blepharitis,” adds Columbus, Ohio, ophthalmologist Alice T. Epitropoulos, MD. “Take these steps, and women can have both beauty and healthy eyes.” For information visit www.Avenova.com or call (800) 890-0329.

Enrich Your Home and Environment With Legal, Domestic Hardwood

More Americans might be driving hybrid cars and recycling, but their hardwood kitchen and living room floors can be just as critical to climate change. No one knows exactly how much illegal hardwood enters the United States, but estimates range from $250 million to $375 million worth per year - much of which is used for high-end flooring. Most illegal hardwood comes from tropical rain forests, delicate ecosystems with high biodiversity. Tropical hardwoods protect the soil - removing them prevents other plants from growing and allows rain to strip away nutrients from the soil. Studies have shown that rain forest deforestation accounts for 18 percent of greenhouse gases.

In December 2008, the US government amended The Lacey Act, its oldest wildlife protection statute, to discourage illegal hardwood imports. According to the amendment, anyone involved in the import, purchase, or sale of illegal wood is subject to one to five years in prison and $100,000 to $500,000 in fines per violation. The US Customs Service monitors suspicious cargo, but too much wood is imported into the US to catch every illegal shipment. However, consumers can take steps to avoid the purchase of illegal hardwood. Shaw, a company that supplies easy-to-install hardwood products, provides the following tips for Americans looking to enrich their homes with gor-

Greener Cities Crop Up, Starting in California It’s not easy being green these days — especially when you share space with more than 3 million people. And yet, one Southern California company is making it its business to do just that. BP Gardens, a subsidiary of GreenGro Technologies (OTC: GNRH), an Anaheim-based eco-friendly technology company, is taking local farming in a crowded urban environment to a whole new level by designing vertical gardens. Its hope, says CEO James Haas, is to provide communities, restaurants, and grocers with locally grown, pesticidefree fruits and vegetables. BP Gardens began as a seed of an idea from Haas, who says, the thought was to use as little water and energy as possible, while still yielding fresh produce and herbs for customers. According to Haas, there will be two separate locations and growing methods. BP Gardens Buena Park currently sits on 4.5 acres in Anaheim, California, and features a 50,000-seat full hydroponic grow system, while its sister company, BP Lincoln Gardens in northern California, employs zerowaste, 80 percent watersaving aquaponics solution with a 40,000-seat capacity. The Buena Park location has currently completed its construction and has planted its first crops, which is ideal for leafy greens, while Lincoln is in the process of installing floating race-ways and introducing fish in preparation for its first crops. This

location will focus on the growth of heavy greens and Sacramento Perch for its customer base. Between the two locations, Haas said he anticipates growing 45,000 heads of lettuce a month. In addition to finding a way to combine technology and food production, while reducing the company’s own carbon footprint, Haas has also stumbled on a niche market in the medical marijuana industry. While GreenGro does not participate in the sale of medical marijuana, Haas said GreenGro’s equipment and

- Do your homework. Ask questions before purchasing your floor to make sure it is from a retailer that sources its hardwood products from a trustworthy, legal distributor. - Consider domestic species of hardwood. Although woods like hickory, oak, birch, and maple are grown in America, advanced staining techniques allow these species to have the exotic looks many homeowners desire without the risk of purchasing illegally harvested products. - Look for eco-friendly laminate products. Shaw’s Luminiere collection mimics exotic woods like Ipe heartwood and teak, but doesn’t require any illegal harvesting. Better yet, the laminate uses 98 percent less newly harvested wood than most hardwood products and features a high-density-fiber core made from recycled wood.

that is made in the US Choosing American-sourced wood not only supports the country’s economy, it helps to ensure that the hardwood is legally harvested from managed forests, which are

a truly renewable resource. - Beware of exotic wood products. Woods like Brazilian cherry or mongoy are much more likely to have been harvested illegally than non-exotic woods.

advanced hydroponic systems benefit that industry as well. Although Haas estimates that about 60 percent of his customers buy his gardening equipment to grow medical marijuana, he says he remains focused on his BP Gardens projects, and isn’t content to stop with the California market, but believes he can take his idea worldwide. “BP Gardens want to go big,” says Haas. “We want to be the source for food and not have to have it travel, and save the Earth.”For more information, visit http://bpgardens.com.

Pasadena Police Chief Sanchez Responds to Recent Tragedy Mayor, council members, department personnel, and community members: The recent high-profile shootings involving law enforcement officers in Baton Rouge, La., and St. Paul, Minn., have generated a wide range of emotions across America. The incidents are being investigated by local authorities and the Department of Justice. At some point the investigative material may be available, depending on the laws, protocol, and practices in Louisiana and Minneapolis. The subsequent ambush on July 7 of 12 Dallas Police officers was allegedly motivated by the shootings in Baton Rouge and St. Paul. The suspect(s) did not claim any connection to domestic or international terror groups; however, the details behind the shootings are still being investigated. Five Dallas Police Officers have died as a result of their gunshot wounds and other officers are in critical condition. While these national

incidents do not necessarily have a direct nexus to our department or community, I intend to increase police staffing over the weekend. The primary focus of the modified deployment is to ensure officer safety (to the best of my ability) and equally important, to increase community outreach through extra service in our neighborhoods, parks, open spaces, and businesses. To be clear, the Pasadena Police Department is not on tactical alert; however,

out of an abundance of caution, I believe the modified deployment is in the best interest of our first responders and our community. The police department is frequently communicating with county, state, and federal officials, to ensure that we are as informed as possible regarding any potential threats. I do not intend to limit or restrict police services. We will continue to respond to calls in our normal fashion and engage our community, which is the hallmark of the Pasadena Police Department. Our community also plays an important role during this emotional period. Suspicious activity should be reported to the Pasadena Police Department without delay. In-progress crime should be reported to 911. Non-emergency incidents should be reported to (626) 744-4241. While we cannot be paranoid, we should remain vigilant about our surroundings and go about our normal routines. Everyone deserves to return home after their activities, regard-

less of their profession. We cannot let the actions of a few erode the quality of life in Pasadena or the good order of our society. Do not take the law into your own hands. If you see or suspect unusual activities, please call the Pasadena Police Department and allow my officers to investigate. The Pasadena Police officers, employees, and volunteers are committed to

delivering exceptional police services, especially during times of adversity. We are fortunate to have experienced, courageous, and diverse employees who serve our community and we will not retreat from those who intend to harm our first responders or those who live in, work, or visit Pasadena. On behalf of the Pasadena Police Department, I would like to extend our

deepest condolences to the men and women of the Dallas Police Department, their families, and other victims involved in this cowardly act. Our uniformed personnel will wear black bands across their badges to honor those Dallas Police Officers who were murdered. Please pray for the Dallas Police Officers, their families, our first responders and America.

Checkpoint Planned continued from pg.1

Pasadena Police Department Traffic Unit will be conducting a DUI/Driver License Checkpoint on Friday, July 15, at an undisclosed location within the Pasadena city limits between the hours of 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. The deterrent effect of DUI checkpoints is a proven resource in reducing the number of persons killed and injured in alcohol or

drug involved crashes. Research shows that crashes involving an impaired driver can be reduced by up to 20 percent when well-publicized DUI checkpoints and proactive DUI patrols are initiated routinely. DUI Checkpoints are placed in locations based on collision statistics and frequency of DUI arrests, affording the greatest opportunity for achieving drunk

and drugged driving deterrence. Locations are chosen with safety considerations for the officers and the public. Funding for this checkpoint is provided to Pasadena Police Department by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Report drunk drivers by calling 911.

great city … I can’t decide if this is best day of my career or if it was back in ’89 when I was first hired by the city …” The search for a new city manager began five months ago in early February, when city council authorized a $35,000 contract with the recruitment firm Bob Murray & Associates. According to Mayor Tornek, this firm was ultimately selected because of its national reputation and its history with Pasadena (the firm has been hired by the city in the past). Interestingly enough, at the time, certain council members were hesitant about the contract’s ability to ensure a thorough search. Council Member John Kennedy was particularly skeptical, arguing that $35,000 was insufficient for a national search of the magnitude and quality that the city would like to conduct. During last Monday’s announcement, Mayor Tornek confirmed that the recruitment process was indeed “rigorous” and that it investigated candidates from “all around the country.” Despite the nationwide hunt, in the end, the city “found the best person right here at home,” to quote the mayor. Mermell received a bachelor’s in political science and a master’s in public administration from California State University, Northridge. He began his professional relationship with the city in 1989 as an administrative analyst at Pasadena Water and Power. Mermell worked his way through the city’s finance department, filling numerous positions, including: purchasing administrator, budget administrator, and deputy director of finance. Ultimately, he assumed the role of assistant city manager and was unanimously elected interim city manager on Feb. 8, 2016, after Michael Beck left to accept the position of administrative vice chancellor at the University of California, Los Angeles. Mermell lives in Los Angeles with his wife and two children. Mayor Tornek concluded by revealing that he was “delighted” about the decision to appoint Mermell and that he is not sure if the city will be lucky enough to “get another 27 years of him … ”

Programs Serving Nutritious Meals to Low-Income Families

State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson recently announced that disadvantaged families in California can find updated lists of child and adult care centers offering nutritious meals at low- or nocost through the California Department of Education’s website (www.cde.ca.gov). “When children eat well and have access to nutritious meals, they are healthier and more successful students as a result,” Torlakson said. “I encourage families to use the services these centers provide.” The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) is funded by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA). Nearly 9,000 local child care centers and 18,000 sponsored family day care home providers in California participate in the CACFP. These facilities provide nutritious food to infants, children, and adults. Most participating child care centers provide meals at no charge. In centers that have a separate charge for meals, participants may receive free or reduced-price meals. Meals are free or reduced price depending on household income guide-

lines. For example, a family of four earning $31,525 a year (up from $31,005 last year) can qualify for free meals and snacks. A family of four earning $44,863 a year (up from $44,123 last year) also qualifies. Families also qualify for free meals if they receive benefits from California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids, CalFresh, Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR), Kinship Guardianship Assistance Payment Program, Head Start, Early Head Start, or the Even Start Program. Adult day care centers with adults that receive CalFresh, FDPIR, Social Security Income, or Medicaid benefits are also eligible for reimbursement at the free rate. Institutions serve meals to all participants regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability.

Interactive Children’s Tour of Famed Fenyes Mansion

The magnificent mansions on Orange Grove Boulevard in Pasadena, set along wide avenues and welltended manicured lawns, are the stuff of fairy tales. The Fenyes Mansion is one such residence where kids would have so much fun playing pretend. At the same time, it is an excellent setting for today’s children to learn how people lived 100 years ago. From 10:30 a.m. to noon, on Wednesday, July 20 and Saturday, July 23, the Fenyes Mansion is offering senior and junior docent-conducted and supervised immersive tours for kids ages 6 to 12. Called “Growing up on Millionaires’ Row,” the visits offer a glimpse of what it was like to live in a grand house, through the eyes of children. Brad Macneil, education program coordinator at the Pasadena Museum of History, designed the tour in hopes that it would be an occasion for grandparents to take their grandchildren on an enjoyable visit. He says, “It will be an intimate group of no more than 30 people for each ses-

sion, to allow for individualized attention. We will divide them into three groupings, touring different sections of the mansion. The first one will look at the public places – foyer, dining room, and kitchen; the second will go into the studio and the conservatory; and the third will go to the upstairs private areas – the sitting room and the bedrooms.” “There will be fun things to explore in each space. Obviously the kitchen is a wonderful place to see because, while it looks somewhat like today’s kitchens, it is full of delightful appliances – old fashioned toasters, ice box (refrigerator), stove

– that children don’t see in their homes. We’ll show them how ancient phones functioned and how irons worked,” Macneil explains. “In the studio we have a Victor Victrola, which we rarely use, but it will be cranked up and will play music,” reveals Macneil. “It would be great to see the look on kids’ faces when they hear tunes coming out of that, instead of from an iPod”. Macneil further enthuses, “The conservatory is such an amazing place – how many people have their own private garden inside their house? How fun would it be for a child to come and play in this room

devoted entirely to plants?” “The group that will be looking at the foyer would become acquainted with how people arrived to visit – they had calling cards, for one, and they dressed far more formally than we do today. Children will get to pretend to come for a special lunch. They will see how the table is set and learn table manners. Just knowing which fork to use for certain foods requires basic training - we have a book devoted solely to dining etiquette. I’m sure we’ll hear a lot of entertaining stories about that,” Macneil says with in amusement. “Upstairs, in the sitting room, children can dress

up. Back then, girls and boys were taught how to be proper ladies and gentlemen. We will have replica clothing they can put on to see what it was like – people wore different attires for various activities, including going out to tea or the theatre. Women’s dresses had so many layers and weighed as much as 35 pounds! They carried accessories and the way they held their fans symbolized specific meanings, like if they wished to encourage conversation with a gentleman across the room. Even the flowers they received or offered to someone conveyed a particular sentiment. During the Victorian era, people had to know the language of flowers. Who, these days, would even realize that when a gentleman gave a lady a white camellia, it meant he found her adorable? And that getting back a bouquet of withered flowers was a dreaded rejection from a lady he so admired?” Macneil adds. “There’s so much the older generations can teach to children today and that’s why we’re so excited about this.” Macneil continues. “We’re grateful that the

Tournament of Roses gave us the funding to make this possible. Using these two sessions this year as a kickoff, we’ll evaluate how much interest it generates and, if it’s successful, we might make it a regular summer offering. It is a wonderful addition to our mission of reaching out and sharing history with the community.” Macneil states, “What I love about it is the sharing of information among multiple generations. There’s nothing like observing a grandfather or a grandmother watching a child learn. I can already hear the start of a conversation, ‘When I was your age, I used to do … ’ It initiates a wonderful dialogue.” The Pasadena Museum of History will be open to the public immediately after the tours so attendees will have the opportunity to explore the ongoing carousel exhibit, walk the grounds of the mansion, and stop in to purchase souvenirs at the gift shop. This interactive visit to the Fenyes Mansion can be a truly pleasurable beginning of a young child’s greater appreciation for history, the community, and the generations before them.

Doctor, Do You Like My Smile? By Kenneth J. Canzoneri, D.D.S. In my office this is a question that I am routinely asked. My answer to this question surprises Dr. Canzoneri patients. I givethe patient a hand mirror and ask them, what do you not like about your smile? Beauty weather it is a painting hanging in a museum, a flower or someone’s smile is truly “in the eye of the beholder.” Restoring a smile is an art form that is dictated not as much by the artist as it is by the ultimate owner. Translating the desires and expectations of our clients into successful results by communicating those desires to a laboratory is an exercise in artistry. So, what questions do I ask a patient as they hold that mirror and evaluate their smile.

1. Do you like the color of your teeth? Are your teeth a uniform, bright color and are they stained. Do they have cracks, brown spots, white spots or dark lines. 2. Do your teeth look worn or chipped? Do your teeth appear flat or worn down as if someone has taken a belt sander to their edges and sanded them down Your teeth should not have chips on their edges. These are all signs of poor function which can destroy a smile. 3. Do you like to smile? This is ultimately the most important question the person looking in the mirror must answer. The human face is a living canvas in which dentists are privileged to work. No two are the same and each possess it’s own set of challenges and limitations. Pick-up a mirror and carefully, honestly look at your smile.

The Federal Reserve (the Fed) has been highly prominent in the news media over the last few months as they debate when to begin raising interest rates. Federal Reserve decisions can have a significant impact on the economy, but the impact on individuals is not always as clear. By law, the Fed has two primary objectives: to maximize employment and keep inflation under control. Of course, the Fed does not have a magic wand to control economic activity, but it seeks to influence economic trends through what is called monetary policy, or the ability to push interest rates higher or lower. Higher interest rates typically ease the pace of economic expansion by making loans for everything from homes to automobiles more expensive. The slower pace of economic growth should subsequently ease inflation pressures. Conversely, lower interest rates should encourage borrowing, which should lead to higher spending and, as a result, greater demand for employees. For individuals, this can mean better job

prospects or higher wages. - How do they do it? Technically speaking, the Fed does not directly raise or lower the interest rates that individuals or corporations pay for loans or receive on savings. Such interest rates are called “marketbased” rates, as ultimately they are determined by the demand for loans and the supply of savings. However, the Fed does have considerable influence over what is called the “Fed Funds” rate. This is the interest rate that banks are charged on overnight loans. Raising or lowering the rate at which banks themselves must pay to borrow typically influences the rate that banks charge their customers for loans or what they are willing to pay their depositors. The relationship, however, is not direct. For instance, the Fed may seek to raise interest rates, but if there is not strong enough demand for loans, banks may find it difficult or impossible to pass along the higher rates to customers. - How interest rates affect the economy: during the financial crisis in 2008, as the economy fell into

a deep recession, the Fed took the drastic action of cutting the Fed Funds target rate to near zero percent. It has maintained this position since that time. Some believe the economy has recovered sufficiently and the Fed can now afford to raise rates, at least modestly. Others are concerned that if rates rise too quickly, it will dampen the rate of economic growth and potentially have a negative impact on economic growth.

- What a change in rates could mean: ultimately, any Fed decisions that affect credit markets can have an impact on us as savers or borrowers. Over time, if the economy continues to slowly strengthen, inflation pressures could become more prevalent, thus prompting Fed officials to push interest rates higher. That could mean higher mortgage rates, which might translate into having to buy a lowerpriced home to afford the payments. It also may make it more expensive to obtain an automobile loan. Of course, you do not want to make a major purchase – such as a home or car – simply because the Fed may raise rates. Ensure that any big expenditure fits within the context of your longterm financial plan. For savers, the implications are a bit more complicated. You have savings that

you want to lend (to generate interest income), but if there are few potential borrowers, or a lot of savers with funds to lend, the return on those savings could remain low regardless of Federal Reserve actions. - What’s ahead? To this point, speculation regarding the Fed policy has had limited impact on the economy itself. Growth has remained modest, but steady. By contrast, the investment markets have been much more volatile in recent months as investors tried to predict the Fed’s moves. Be prepared for continued upsand-downs in the market, due at least in part to ongoing efforts to try to predict potential changes in direction of the Federal Reserve’s policies. Finally, keep in mind that there a wide range of factors outside of the Fed’s control that can significant-

ly impact the economic situation. So although the Fed’s tools can be a powerful influence over the economy, they are by no means absolute. Jean D.

Autry Museum Acquires Major Collection and Archives of Artist Harry Fonseca The Autry recently announced that it has acquired the estate of renowned Maidu/Portuguese/Hawaiian artist Harry Fonseca (1946-2006). The collection includes over 500 original works of art, as well as Fonseca’s personal archive of journals, papers, and sketchbooks, most of which have never been exhibited, researched, or published. Fonseca was among a critical generation of 20 century Native artists who, inspired by tradition, created work that transcended expectations of the same. Best-known for his depiction of “Coyote,” the colorful trickster who “leaves the res” only to reappear in a variety of non-traditional settings, Fonseca also created work that speaks to historical events such as the California Gold Rush. “In this single step, with the acquisition of the main and the most important of the works in the estate of the late Harry Fonseca, the Autry has transformed its position as a national center of collecting, researching, and interpreting contemporary Native fine art. Fonseca already is highly respected, specifically for his immense gifts as an artist and the uniformly high quality of his prodigious volume of work. In addition, 21 century art history will view him, more generally, as an undeniable and valued bridge between Native art and the broader international

contemporary art world. His impact on both was seminal and enduring, and, in addition, the Autry’s pursuit of mission - interpreting the vast cultural complexities, past, present, and future, of the American West - has been profoundly enhanced.” said W. Richard West, Jr., the Autry’s president and CEO. In total, the acquisition includes more than 900 pieces: approximately 500 original works of art, including 19 large-scale murals; 69 sketchbooks; a selection of prints, posters, collages, and multiples; and all of Fonseca’s personal journals and papers from his estate. Bruce Bernstein and Brian Bibby, trustees of the Harry Fonseca Trust, stated their appreciation for the Autry’s commitment to preserving and providing access to the vast collection: “The fundamental goal of the Fonseca Trust has been to locate an institution with the means, curatorship, and commitment to place the breadth and depth of Harry’s creative genius and deep scholarly approach to making art. Including a broad spectrum of the Trust’s collection - studies and sketches, finished works, sketchbooks and journals, models, papers, and even his paintbrushes and easel, we feel gratified that his artistic and intellectual legacy will be accessible for future generations to

Born in Sacramento in 1946, Fonseca began his art career in the 1960s at California State University, Sacramento. Influenced by basketry designs, dance regalia, and his participation as a traditional

dancer, Fonseca’s earliest pieces drew from his Maidu heritage. He first gained public and museum attention with his invention of the “Coyote” series in the 1970s. The “Coyote” became a vehicle for self-exploration, a metaphor for a life well-lived, and a symbol of the Native idea that the world is not to be controlled but to be enjoyed and embraced. Fonseca’s work later took a more political turn with the “Discovery of Gold and Souls in California” series in the 1990s and other series that connected to California history. Fonseca maintained a studio in New Mexico until his passing in December 2006. “The Autry has set itself apart from other museums by acquiring Harry Fonseca’s archives and original art. His work will always be relevant as he painted universal themes and issues that affect not only Native peoples but the world at large, such as Christianity, genocide, religion, greed, money, and gold. Through his art, Fonseca examined and considered the human condition, speaking directly to the challenges of life. His consistency was in the high quality of his work,” said Patsy Phillips, director of IAIA Museum of Contemporary Native Arts. “As the

largest single repository for Fonseca’s work, the Autry becomes a destination for scholars, curators, and others to study his legacy and art for generations to come.” In the coming years, the Autry will develop an exhibition and publication of Fonseca’s work, which establishes a continuum between the museum’s historic, modern, and contemporary collections. During the past decade, the Autry has expanded its Native art collection through donations or acquisitions of works by artists such as Rick Bartow (Wiyot), Allan Houser (Chiricahua Apache), Virgil Ortiz (Cochiti Pueblo), Mateo Romero (Cochiti Pueblo), Fritz Scholder (Luiseno), and Preston Singletary (Tlingit). Amy Scott, the Autry’s chief curator and Marilyn B. and Calvin B. Gross Curator of Visual Arts, will oversee plans for related exhibitions and publications. “Fonseca worked to advance understanding of Native culture beyond the static and stereotypical image that often comprises the majority understanding,” Scott said. “The archive presents seemingly endless possibilities for cross-collection connections, exhibitions, and research.”

Rosemead School District Selected for Prestigious 2015 Honor Roll School District Award

The Rosemead School District recently announced that they have been selected by Educational Results Partnership (ERP) and the Campaign for Business and Education Excellence (CBEE) as one of 13 public school districts in California to receive the title of 2015 Honor Roll School District. The Honor Roll is part of a national effort to identify higher-performing schools and highlight successful practices that improve outcomes for students. School districts receiving this distinction have demonstrated consistent high levels of student academic achievement, improvement in achieve-

ment levels over time, and reduction in achievement gaps among student populations. For school districts with high schools, the Honor Roll recognition also includes measures of college readiness. “We are so proud to be recognized by education and business leaders in California as an Honor Roll School District,” said Rosemead School District Superintendent Dr. Amy Enomoto-Perez. “Our teachers and administrators work tirelessly to keep the focus on high expectations and student academic achievement and to continuously improve our practices.

This hard work and dedication is paying off for all of our students, no matter their background.” “The American education system has a secret,” said Jim Lanich, ERP president and CEO. “Many schools are doing well. The Honor Roll proves it. Students are achieving at higher levels than anyone admits and more students than ever are

succeeding when given the opportunity. All schools, no matter what zip code they are in, can achieve this kind of success. Leadership from the business community is critical to ensuring successes for all students.” A full list of the Honor Roll schools, districts, and the STEM awardees can be found at http://edresults.org/HonorRoll/HonorRoll?State=CA.

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.

Tips to Help Your Child Get the Most Out of Team Sports When it comes to improving academic performance, boosting self-esteem, and teaching social skills, few things beat team sports. Sports give kids the opportunity to get attention and respect, and to use the natural skills that come with youth, like speed and coordination. According to one survey of 2,185 children conducted by The Women’s Sports Foundation and Harris Interactive, kids who played sports or who participated in activities like Frisbee, camping, and hiking felt healthier and more confident about their bodies than those who did not. Other studies demonstrate that children active in sports perform better in school and are less likely to use drugs as young adults. Of course, sports can have a downside. Overlycompetitive leagues, discouraging coaches, and injuries from unsafe practices can quickly turn kids away from sports. So how can you make sure that your child has a positive experience?

Here are some tips: - Make sure that your child is mature enough to participate. In general, kids are not equipped for the rules and cooperation required in team sports until age six or seven. But each child develops differently. Do not push children if they are not ready. - Make sure that the league or coach emphasizes fun. If you ask children why they want to play a sport, they will probably say that they want to have fun or make friends. No matter their sport of choice, make sure that your child’s enjoying him or herself.

- Do not stress winning over everything else. Extreme competitiveness overrides any sportsmanship your child would otherwise learn. Focus on personal markers of success, not the league championship. - You can reward your child for playing a sport even if their league does not. PlaqueMakerPlus allows you to print your child’s photo in a sportsshaped frame. You can also order your own trophies and present them for a job well done, whether that means making the winning hit or simply putting in a good effort. - Do not force your child to specialize too soon. Few kids are going to get sports scholarships – instead of trying to turn your child into a baseball or basketball star, let them try out a variety of sports. Some children are never going to enjoy sports. Instead of forcing kids into an activity that they do not like, find another physical activity, such as track, cycling or hiking, that they can enjoy.

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 2015-02688CA. 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.

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.

Athletic TIPS Program Addresses Problem of Youth Sports Injuries

A new program called “Athletic TIPS” - Towards Injury Prevention in Sports - is seeking to address what has been called “a silent epidemic” among our nation’s youth. With a whopping

30,000 or so high-school athletes hospitalized each year (to cite just one alarming statistic), things like community workshops, online learning, and other grassroots initiatives are

used to try to foster a safer atmosphere for athletes from kindergarten through college. Watch their video at: https://youtu.be/kir8P5UOuT4.

Professional Development Golf Coaches Clinic High School golf teams are an integral part of growing junior golf. The TWLC Golf Department wants to make golf more enjoyable and contribute to youth golf player development by assisting the coaches with the latest golf ideas and concepts. The modern golf swing has evolved into a biomechanic motion that produces a powerful, effortless swing, creating an efficient, repetitive motion and reducing golf injuries, resulting in students performing better and enjoying the game so much more! This special Golf Coaches Clinic is a two-hour instructional seminar for coaches to: - Learn and practice the fundamentals of a biomechanical golf swing. - Examine the core elements of golf fitness - range of motion/stability/mobility. - Implement drills and exercises to be used with limited or no golf resources.

All golf coaches in Southern California that work with high school golf teams or junior organization who supports students in golf development ages 13 to 18 years old are invited to attend! Clinic well be held on Thursday, Aug. 18 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at Tiger Woods Learning Center (1 Tiger Woods Way in Anaheim).

La Salle Retires Number 11 Bowdien “Bubba” Derby, a 2012 graduate of La Salle High School in Pasadena, recently had his baseball jersey and number retired during a ceremony at the baseball diamond at Arcadia County Park, the Lancers’ home field. Derby’s high school career began by being called up to varsity as a freshman,

then helping win La Salle’s first-ever Del Rey League championship. He then capped his career by pitching three outstanding playoff games in the tough CIF Division III bracket, including two no-hitters against Bishop Montgomery and St. Paul, two great hitting teams. His stellar baseball ca-

reer continued at San Diego State after Derby was personally recruited to pitch for the Aztecs by their head coach at the time, the late baseball legend Tony Gwinn. Derby started his Aztec career by striking out college great Kris Bryant (now with the Chicago Cubs), with the bases loaded. He then ended his collegiate career

going head-to-head with Dillon Tate (first round draft pick for the Texas Rangers) in the first game of the NCAA Baseball Regionals. The Aztecs won three conference championships in a row riding on Derby’s arm. In June 2015, Bubba was drafted in the sixth round of the MLB Draft to play professionally for the

Oakland Athletics. Darby was recently traded to the Milwaukee Brewers. Former Lancer Baseball Head Coach Harry Agajanian said, “Bubba, you have brought attention and class to La Salle and to Lancer baseball. I can speak for the entire baseball program and the athletic department when I say that it has

been a joy and a privilege to watch you perform and mature through your high school years and beyond. To commemorate your accomplishments as a student of the game, your jersey and number 11 will be retired and displayed on our outfield fence, knowing that you will forever be regarded as a great Lancer.”
