ARCADIA WANTS YOU TO BE PREPARED FOR ANY DISASTER

September is National Preparedness Month, a great time to make or update disaster preparations. There are several ways to prepare for an emergency.

First off, every household should have a disaster kit. “When you’re looking at preparedness, the best thing is to treat all possible events the same: by building a disaster kit,” says Arcadia Fire Battalion Chief and Emergency Preparedness Coordinator Barry Spriggs.

Spriggs recommends having a kit for home, the car, and work. Kits should include essentials such as food, water, necessary medications, a flashlight, and a multi-tool.

If you know how to shut off utilities like gas and water, a wrench is useful as well. Residents with kits help the fire department, Spriggs says, because “we know in the event of an emergency, they can be self-sufficient.”

For an in-depth kit list, visit: www.ready.gov/kit.

Next, have a family emergency plan. Ready OC, SEE PAGE 13

The smoking ban in Monrovia Parks went into effect at the beginning of the month.

Citizens observing violations can report then via phone or text to (626) 2556799.

The city staff is focusing on educating the community about the ban. As a part of that process, new signs are been installed up in the parks. These include the procedure for reporting violations of the smoking ban.

When the city receives a report at the number, a park

ranger will be sent to provide information on our new prohibition against smoking in city parks. A first-only warning will be given, but following this initial education period (scheduled to last for a few months), the city will eventually be issuing citations, when appropriate.

Additionally, the new park signs that the city has developed and will be installing at all parks list hours of operation and other park regulations (dogs must be on leashes, no alcohol use, and no portable BBQs).

How to Sell High: Avoid these Three Mistakes When Selling Your Home Alhambra - When you decide to sell your home, setting your optimal asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Price is often the first thing a prospective buyer sees, and many homes are passed over as “not in our price range” before the home even has a chance of being shown.

Your asking price is often your home’s “first impression,” and if you want to realize the most money you can for your home, it’s imperative that you make an excellent first impression.

This is not as easy as it sounds,

and pricing strategy should not be taken lightly. Pricing too high can be as costly to a homeseller as pricing too low. Comparing against what other homes in your neighborhood have sold for is only a small part of the process, and by itself is not nearly enough to help you make the best decision. A recently study, which compiles 10 years of industry research, has resulted in a new special report entitled “Homesellers: How to Get the Price You Want (and Need).” This report will help you understand pricing strategy from three

different angles. When taken together, this information will help you price your home to sell fast, and sell for top dollar.

To order your FREE Special Report, call toll-free 1-888-3004632 and enter 1016. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Dear Editor: Of course the zoning code update in Arcadia has had no effect. The egregious FAR is based on current practices. So mansionization was grandfathered in for most areas of the city. In fact, the non-HOA areas (over half of the city) now have the same FAR as the most expansive lots in the Rancho, thanks to Mr. Chandler and Mr. Tay who sold their souls to the developers (i.e., speculators), along with John Wuo, Bob Harbicht, and so many of Arcadia's former mayors.

So the density of building on lots of all sizes will continue to increase, compared to the city's General Plan and the original neighborhood developments. Mansionization will continue to crowd out open spaces, trees, play areas, views, and many of the things that used to give Arcadians a better quality of life. This is the heart of the problem with mansionization. It's not about big homes. It's about homes

that are too big for the lots, too close to the neighbors, too tall, and too much for the neighborhood.

Only the Highlands and Village HOA areas were spared. The city owes a thank you to the courageous leadership of David Arvizu, Laurie Thompson, April Verlato, and many, many others.

The fact that modification requests are being questioned now with a little more frequency only means the planning commission and city staff are finally doing their jobs. Why is that? Because they know that City Council Member April Verlato will support them when a developer whines and complains.

No one deserves special thanks for doing their job. Not the planning commission, not the city council. It's the lack of responsibility in Arcadia, over the past two decades, that makes it appear as though real change has finally come.

It hasn't.

The bulldozers and green fences are alive and well, and continuing their decimation of a once proud community of homes.

Letter to Editor Regarding Our Pasadena Paper’s Drop Sites

Dear Beacon Media News, In the Sept. 8 issue you wanted to know what we like and dislike about your newspaper.

Briefly, you are an important local news source.

I have no change wish regarding your editorial. You are just right. This also goes to your layout which has a professional look.

But, for the longest time, I noticed that you are hard to find in the City of Pasadena. Your distribution points are very scarce. You can be found only in Vro-

mans and the central library (not even branch libraries).

A long time ago I could get you at the Goldline train stations. But I checked the Sierra Madre station a year ago and see nothing.

I suggest having them at all grocery stores: Ralphs, Vons, Super King, Fresh n’ Easy, Trader Joe’s, etc.

Why do I think this is very important? Because, as good as you are, you are not popular in Pasadena.

I have friends who don’t even know your paper exists. They all know of the Pasadena Weekly, but were surprised to see me reading the Pasadena Independent.

I know you have good coverage in Monrovia and Sierra Madre, but in Pasadena you are not to be seen.

I hope this fulfills your desire to hear a readers’ feedback.

‘The Fantasticks’ Comes to Pasadena Production Directed by Seema Sueko

By Terry Miller

www.WhereMusicMeetsTheSoul.com 888-645-5006 Dinner Seating/Service Available For All Performances

The Pasadena Playhouse production of “The Fantasticks,” with book and lyrics

by Tom Jones and music by Harvey Schmidt is now playing. Directed by Seema Sueko, this production will literally knock your socks off.

On Thursday Pasadena Independent got a chance to speak with some of the cast members and star Hal Linden and author/lyricist Tom Jones.

Linden began his career as a big band musician and singer in the 1950s. After a stint in the United States Army, he began an acting career where he first worked in summer stock and off-Broadway productions. Linden found success on Broadway when he replaced Sydney Chaplin in the musical Bells Are Ringing.

In 1971, he won a Best Actor Tony Award for his portrayal of Mayer Rothschild in the musical “The Rothschilds.”

In 1974, he landed his best-known role as the title character in the television comedy series Barney Miller.

The role earned him seven Primetime Emmy Award and

three Golden Globe Award nominations. During the series' run, Linden also hosted two educational series, Animals, Animals, Animals and FYI. He won two special Daytime Emmy Awards for the latter series. Linden won a third Daytime Emmy Award for a guest-starring role on CBS “Schoolbreak Special” in 1995. Linden has since continued his career on the stage, in films and guest-starring roles on television. He released his first album of pop and jazz standards, It's Never Too Late, in 2011.

play which ran off Broadway from 1960 until 2002 Jones acted in a New York City revival of “The Fantasticks,” which he also directed. He played the part of the Old Actor, which he played when the musical opened in 1960, from April 26, 2010 to June 6, 2010. He was credited as an actor in the show as Thomas Bruce. The show is still running at the Snapple Theater.

Jones is also the author of Making Musicals: An Informal Introduction to the World of Musical Theater, about which Elyse Sommer wrote on Jan. 15, 1998 in Curtain Up: The cast of eight features

Business Profile: Just Float in Pasadena - the Largest Floating Center in the World

By Jean Koehler

Ameriprise Financial Advisor

Floating ‘Opens People's Hearts’

By Jennifer Schlüter

R

ecord-breaking NBA player Stephen Curry and some of his teammates float regularly after one of their trainers, Lachlan Penfold, introduced them to sensory deprivation therapy. "I can get away from all the stresses on the court and life, but obviously it has some physical benefits as well," said MVP Steph. Judging from his performance, we won't doubt that - but also because research has proven these effects.

But what's so great about lying in a dark tank full of salt water for hours, where you're isolated from people, sounds and visuals?

I've tried floating a few times, for the first time at the Float Lab in Westwood, and then at Just Float in Pasadena. There, I interviewed one of the owners, Jim Hefner about his passion for floating and how

the largest float center in the world came to be.

Jim first heard about floating from Joe Rogan about six years ago, but it took him another three years to try it because there weren't many sensory deprivation tanks available. As soon as he got out of the tank in Laguna Beach, where he had floated for his very first time, Jim knew that this was going to be his business. "What happened to me in there is profound," he remembers.

A few months later, after learning everything there was to know, Jim hired his own crew of designers and engineers to create their own tanks, because he wasn't satisfied with the existing equipment.

Today, Jim knows that his business changes people's lives. Proof for that is the overwhelmingly positive feedback which can be found in the journals of the lobby or in the groom-

ing room: Visitors felt as if they were catapulted back into their mother's womb at the very start of their lives on earth, others describe a high on happiness or call it a "contribution to peace."

More than half of the guests become regular guest whereas only less than 1 percent walk-out, mostly due to anxiety or claustrophobia.

Jim attributes being more kind, creative and stress-resistant to regular floating because it makes him feel "comfortable, relaxed, and full of gratitude." Lying in the salt water at least twice a week gives him insight on how he operates, his motivations and fears, and has improved the quality of his relationships because it "tends to open people's hearts."

To share this experience with many more people, he plans to expand his business nationally and possibly internationally.

You’ve just been offered your dream job in a city far from your current home.

While you’re excited for the opportunity, it can be stressful to think of all the to-dos and costs associated with managing your transition to a new community. With careful thought and advance planning, you can make your move less stressful and more affordable.

- Housing considerations: the biggest challenge to relocation is often selling a home (if you own a property) and finding a new one. Large employers may offer assistance with the sale of your home and other aspects of your relocation. However, if you’re on your own, talk to a realtor as soon as possible to find out how quickly houses have been selling in your area, fair market value, and what you need to do to get your property ready for sale.

You might consider renting your property if you are concerned about selling your home in time or if you think your relocation will be tempo-

rary. Talk to property management companies to explore services that oversee rental properties for absentee owners.

If you need to start your new job right away, you may need to find a place to rent near your new employer. Look for rental agencies that specialize in temporary housing for executives to find quality properties with more flexible lease arrangements. When you’re ready to purchase a home, a realtor can help you identify desirable neighborhoods and narrow your search to properties in your budget. There are realtors who specialize in relocation and are especially skilled in helping families manage any issues that could arise with a move.

- Travel: don’t underestimate travel costs. You may need to make several trips back and forth before you permanently relocate. If you’re traveling by air, try to book at least two weeks out. Generally speaking, you can nab the best prices on tickets when you

buy and travel midweek.

- Lifestyle change: if your move brings you to a larger city, expect to experience a higher cost of living. There can be significant regional differences, which hopefully your employer considered when determining your new salary.

In any event, as you manage your monthly budget, make adjustments that reflect your new reality and modify your discretionary spending to fit your new lifestyle.

- Nominal costs: you might be surprised to learn that relocating may affect what you pay for insurance and health care costs. For example, if you’re moving to a more metropolitan area, you’ll likely pay more for home, renter’s, or auto insurance.

Consider the time and possible impact on your budget if you need to change banks, get a new driver’s license and license plates, or pay home association fees in your new neighborhood. While these costs may seem nominal, they

Chapcare Latin American Fine Art Sale On Sept. 22, Community Health Alliance of Pasadena (ChapCare) will host a Latin American Fine Art Sale, which will feature Latin American, Chicano, Mexican, and Cuban fine art.

A portion of the proceeds will support ChapCare’s new LGBT Health Services Program.

Art will be on sale from the collection of Carrie Adrian. Artists will include: Kdir Lopez, Andy Rivero,

Luis Camejo Luis Camejo, Frank Romero, Margaret Garcia, Kathy Gallegos, Luis Lopez, and many more.

The sale will be hosted from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at ChapCare’s administrative office located at 455 Mon-

tana St., Pasadena. Parking is available on-site.

Beverage and lite fare will be provided.

The goal of ChapCare’s new lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, and transgender (LGBT) Health Services Program in the City of Pasadena is to provide a patient centered medical home for the LGBT community, which will provide culturally and linguistically competent primary care, specialty care, and supportive services.

These include: primary medical care, HIV/STD screening and treatment (including access to an on-site HIV Specialist), HIV prevention (PeP/PrEP), behavioral health counseling, pharmacy (dispensing of HIV and general medications, as well as medication therapy management), health insurance screening and enrollment, linkage to care via bus tokens and

taxi vouchers, coordination of housing, dental services, and additional specialty

services (optometry and podiatry).

ChapCare developed this program with the help of Anthony Guthmiller, former executive director of AIDS Service Center. A key project partner is Foothill AIDS Project, a regional provider of programs that support the LGBT population.

“Across the San Gabriel Valley there is limited access to primary and specialty healthcare and supportive services that are responsive to the needs of the LGBT community,” said Margaret B. Martinez, ChapCare’s CEO, “With today’s announcement, ChapCare pledges its commitment to the LGBT population, and will continue to add services in the future to meet their needs.”

can add up. If your employer offers financial assistance, be sure to look at what costs are covered. In many cases, employers will reimburse any additional or increased costs you incur as a result of the move.

- Moving day: coordinating the physical move can be tricky. Ask your family, friends, or your employer to recommend reputable moving companies. Get a quote in writing and compare terms. Make sure you agree on timing as well as cost. Some companies wait for a full truckload before leaving town, which could

add weeks to the transit time of your sofa and chairs. If you need temporary storage on either end of your move, factor in that cost as well.

- Talk to your financial advisor: because there are many aspects of a job change and physical move that impact your finances, you’ll want to consult with your financial advisor. Discuss whether you will maintain your relationship – many financial advisors are accustomed to working with clients virtually. Talk with your advisor to see if that is an option for you.

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.

an emergency education campaign, suggests including an out-of-town contact programmed into everyone’s cellphones as, due to busy local lines, it may be easier to make a long-distance call. It recommends texting instead of calling during an emergency, as faulty network connections could prevent calls from going through.

If you have children, Ready OC emphasizes bringing them into the process.

Explain where the family will regroup after an emergency, buy kit supplies together and making sure they know where the kit is stored. Get more information at www. readyoc.org/prepare/plan. html.

If you have pets, include them in your plan and disaster kit. “Leaving pets out of evacuation plans can put pets, pet owners, and first responders in danger,” according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) emergency preparedness page. To prevent this, be sure your pets have microchips, up-to-date tags, and carriers or leashes are kept near the exit. The CDC suggests familiarizing your pet with their carriers and practicing catching them if necessary. It is also best to know where you can

Want to help prepare beyond your own home?

Consider joining the Citizen Corps, a network of councils run by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Their mission is to “harness the power of every individual through education, training, and volunteer service to make communities safer, stronger, and better prepared to respond to … disasters of all kinds,” according to their website.

Another route is to learn first aid and CPR. Spriggs suggests taking classes from the

Red Cross. Find nearby classes at www.redcross.org/m/ take-a-class#arcmobile.

Want to test your preparedness? On Oct. 20 at 10:20 a.m., Arcadia will take part in the Great California ShakeOut, an event where people around the world will practice their emergency plans. The city government will practice evacuation and the fire department will do a windshield survey drill where they drive around and check their districts.

The Road to College

By May S. Ruiz FRESHMAN Instill in your children good time management and organizational skills early on. High school is so much busier than what they’ve been through yet. These skills will help them have a happy, productive, and successful fouryear experience.

If your children didn’t develop good study habits in lower and middle school, they need to hunker down and be serious about academics.

Encourage them to immerse themselves in the culture of their high school and get involved in various extra-curricular activities that support their interests, and which they can carry on into the next three years.

Your children should find the time to meet with their school’s counselor to map out a four-year curriculum that meets all the requirements for graduating and going into college.

They should take the most challenging courses they could handle. If their high school offers advanced placement subjects in ninth grade and your children decide to take the course, they have to be ready to take the exams after they complete it.

SOPHOMORE

By this time, your children should be fully transitioned into high school. They should be picking up where they left off – taking advanced placement courses, working on extra-curricular activities they had identified in their freshman year, playing sports for their school, etc.

Practice exams for standardized tests are given in your children’s sophomore year, so make sure they are registered for the PSAT. Taking these tests will help them identify their weaknesses and study for them. Several companies and organizations offer test preparation courses; your children should register to one if they need help getting ready for these exams (ACT: www.act.org; PSAT: www. collegeboard.com; Educational Testing Service: www. ets.org; Kaplan: www.kaptest.com; National Association for College Admission Counseling: www.nacacnet.org; The Princeton Review: www. princetonreview.com).

JUNIOR

This is a very hectic, even stressful, time in your children’s high school life. It is also the last complete year

tap into the wÜrst

With September marking the beginning of fall and the opening of a brandnew school year, students should settle in as quickly as possible to begin the academic term.

that college admissions officers will see your students’ grades. It is a decidedly important year for them; they need to put the effort to show admission officers that they are capable of doing the work and are qualified for admission to the school to which they will be applying. If your children are thinking of applying to universities through early action/decision, their junior year grades and work will become all the more significant.

Your children should be taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/ NMSQT) early next month.

While they should have prepared well for all the tests and should try for a high mark, they also have to keep in mind that a perfect SAT score does not guarantee admission to their dream university. They should have realistic expectations.

You and your children should be going to college fairs being held at their high school.

They should be gathering information about colleges and universities – courses and diplomas offered; standardized test requirements for admission; deadlines for early action/decision, if being offered, and for regular admission.

SENIOR

Make it a point to attend your children’s “Back to School Night” because the counselors would most probably be giving parents information about the college applications that would be starting in earnest.

The organizational skills that I have been talking about since your children entered ninth grade will be put to the test during their senior year. Encourage your children to create a calendar with standardized testing dates, counselor meeting schedules, and application deadlines.

Your children should

have a binder with separate sections for each college or university and a log of what needs to be accomplished for each: required standardized tests (SAT or ACT, SAT II grades; AP test scores, etc.); writing supplement; how many letters of recommendation they require; application fee; how to send the application.

Ideally, you and your children have visited the colleges they are thinking of applying to. One of the first things they have to do is finalizing the list of colleges and universities to which they will send applications – eight is the norm. They should be ready to write their personal statement; they should also have given stamped envelopes to the teachers giving them recommendations.

If you are applying for financial aid, be aware that the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) season will start earlier. You will be able to fill out your FAFSA (www.fafsa.ed.gov) beginning Oct.1 this year, instead of on Jan. 1 next year. You will also be able to retrieve your income information directly from the IRS on Oct. 1. If your children are applying for the 2017-2018 school year, you will be required to provide your 2015 income information.

Research all scholarships available. Some online sites include: College Xpress (www.collegexpress. com); Fastweb (www.fastweb.com); Scholarships.com (www.scholarships.com); and Student Aid on the Web (www.student.ed.gov).

It goes without saying that as busy as your children are as they go through the college application process, they should still keep trying to get the best grades they are capable of. The colleges to which they are applying will require their first quarter grades if they’re looking to get in through early action or early decision.

The legislation will direct hundreds of millions of dollars in funds towards programs that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions, protect natural ecosystems, and support clean transportation.

Governor Signs Legislation to Support Communities Impacted

by Climate Change Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr. recently signed legislation that directs $900 million in cap-andtrade funds to greenhouse gas reducing programs that benefit disadvantaged communities, support clean transportation, and protect natural ecosystems. The governor also signed bills that prioritize spending in communities disproportionally impacted by dirty air and carbon pollution.

“These cap-and-trade investments will help spur innovation of all kinds to curb carbon pollution,” said Governor Brown at a signing ceremony in downtown Fresno, where cap-andtrade proceeds are helping to improve bus rapid transit services and access to affordable housing. “With these bills, we also will help communities hard hit by pollution and climate change.”

Under current law, 60 percent of annual cap-andtrade auction proceeds are allocated on an ongoing basis to public transit, affordable housing, sustainable communities, and high-speed rail. The legislation signed – AB 1550 by Assemblymember Jimmy Gomez (D-Los Angeles), AB 2722 by Assemblymember Autumn R. Burke (D-Inglewood), and SB 859 and AB 1613 (budget committees)

– invests $900 million of the remaining unallocated funds for fiscal year 201617 and reserves approximately $462 million for appropriation in future years.

“While the ultimate goal of cap-and-trade is to reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions, and not to generate revenue, wisely investing the funds that do come from cap-and-trade can help us meet California’s emission reduction goals,” said Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon.

“The bills signed today embody the aggressive and responsible approach we are taking in spending capand-trade funds to ensure that Californians in underserved communities – and communities most impacted by air quality problems – benefit from these investments.”

“These bills unleash badly-needed resources that can make tangible improvements to environmental health and quality of life in our most polluted and impoverished communities,” said Senate President pro Tempore Kevin de León. “This year we set ambitious new targets for reducing harmful emissions of greenhouse gases and other toxic pollutants. Now it’s time to use every tool at our disposal to reach those goals and improve lives in

the process. These funds are a down-payment toward those ends – they will increase access to electric vehicles, solar panels, and low-carbon public transit; help us improve household energy efficiency and create new parks; and bolster our forest and wetland management efforts to better prepare for damaging wildfires and floods. I’d like to thank Governor Brown and all of my colleagues in both chambers for their leadership and support getting these resources to where they are needed most.”

The Governor also signed AB 2722, which creates the Transformative Climate Communities Program, a grant program administered by the Strategic Growth Council, for broad-based greenhouse gas emission reduction projects that provide local economic, environmental, and health benefits to disadvantaged communities.

“This is a big shift in environmental policy for California and it proves we can champion environmental justice and create jobs at the same time,” said Assemblymember Burke. “With this investment, we’re giving heavily polluted neighborhoods a chance at a cleaner, brighter future and boosting the local economy.”

Actor Sentenced for Glendale DUI Charge Actor Drake Bell has been sentenced to four years’ summary probation and four days in county jail for driving under the influence in Glendale late last year, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office recently announced.

Jared Drake Bell, 30, entered a no contest plea late Friday to one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol within 10 years of another DUI offense. Bell also admitted to

allegations of refusing to take a chemical test and that he was convicted in 2010 of driving under the influence in San Diego.

Case 6GD00057 was scheduled for a pretrial hearing on Oct. 7, but the date was advanced to Sept.

2. The defendant personally appeared to enter the plea and was immediately remanded into custody to begin serving his 96-hour sentence.

Bell also was ordered

to complete an alcohol program and comply with any DMV orders and restrictions on his driving privileges. The defendant was warned that he could be charged with murder if he commits any future DUIs which result in someone’s death.

On Dec. 21, 2015, Bell was arrested after driving erratically on San Fernando Road, prosecutors said. The case was investigated by the Glendale Police Department.

Gang Members Convicted of Attempted Murder in Pomona Drive-By Shooting

Two documented gang members were convicted recently of shooting a rival gang member in 2014, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced.

Jurors deliberated for a day before finding Carlos Alfred Monge, 26, and Sergio Delacruz, 23, guilty of two felony counts each in case KA107313: attempted murder and shooting from a motor vehicle.

Additionally, jurors found true the special allegation that the crime was committed for the benefit of, at the direction of, and in association with a

criminal street gang, with the specific intent to promote, further, and assist in criminal conduct by gang members.

The defendants are scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 20 in Department T of the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Pomona Branch. They each face a maximum possible sentence of life in state prison.

Deputy District Attorney Martin Bean of the Hardcore Gang Division, who prosecuted the case, said in the early evening of Sept. 1, 2014, Monge and Delacruz entered into enemy gang territory in

Pomona. Delacruz drove the vehicle while Monge shot a 21-year-old rival gang member in the arm and back, the prosecutor said. Following the shooting, the defendants fled the scene. Authorities were called and police located Delacruz and Monge in the suspect vehicle, according to the prosecutor. The defendants led police on a pursuit, before they deserted the car and fled on foot. Law enforcement discovered the two men and they were arrested in connection with the shooting. The case was investigated by the Pomona Police Department.

Woman Sentenced for Pigeon Drop Scam A 50-year-old woman was recently sentenced to more than five years in local custody for duping senior citizens out of thousands of dollars in a pigeon drop scam, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced.

In an open plea to the court, Margaret Mary Souza of Quartz Hill pleaded no contest last month to two counts of grand theft from an elder and one count each of attempted grand theft and attempted theft from an elder. An open plea is a plea that was not negotiated with prosecutors.

Co-defendant Teneca Wilson, 32, of Los Angeles was found guilty last month of one count each of grand theft from an elder, attempted grand theft, and attempted theft from an elder. She was sentenced to six years and six months in prison.

Deputy District Attorney Tony Cho of the Elder Abuse Section prosecuted the case.

On two separate occasions, the defendants approached senior citizens and claimed they had found a large sum of cash. Known as a pigeon drop scam, the ruse involves asking victims to withdraw good faith money to show

80%

of U.S adults report looking at advertising when reading the paper

their commitment to sharing the funds.

On Jan. 6, 2012, Souza managed to steal $7,000 from a 73-year-old woman.

On Dec. 19, 2014, both defendants stole $10,000 from an 89-year-old woman. On Jan. 22, 2015, both defendants attempted to pull the same scam on an 84-yearold woman, but a bank teller thought something was amiss and authorities were alerted. Both Souza and Wilson were arrested.

The case was investigated by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s and Los Angeles Police Departments.

Father Charged With Leaving Child in Hot Car

A 48-year-old man has been charged with leaving his 2-year-old daughter inside a car with closed windows on a hot day in El Segundo, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office recently announced.

Dennyal Sachen, 48, of Los Angeles pleaded not guilty yesterday to one felony count of child abuse and one misdemeanor count each of driving under the influence of an alcoholic beverage and driving with

at least a .08-percent blood alcohol content.

Case SA093785 includes the allegation that the defendant’s blood alcohol concentration was 0.15 percent or more.

Sachen is scheduled to return on Sept. 28 in Department W71 of the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Airport Branch.

On June 8, Sachen allegedly left his daughter in his vehicle with the windows rolled up while picking up

another child at an El Segundo school, prosecutors said. After some time in the car, witnesses noticed the toddler, called police, and rendered aid, prosecutors added.

When the defendant returned, police arrested him.

If convicted as charged, the defendant faces a possible maximum sentence of seven years in state prison. The case was investigated by the El Segundo Police Department.

Case Dismissed Against LASD Deputy After Jury Deadlocks Following a week-long trial, which included video evidence and two days of deliberation, jurors announced in August that they were unable to reach a unanimous decision in the case of a Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputy accused of perjury and filing a false police report.

The trial of Gregory Rodriguez, 36, ended with eight of 12 jurors voting “not guilty.” Prosecutors with the Justice System Integrity Division recently announced they would be unable to proceed in case BA436858.

The trial that began on July 29 included witness tes-

timony and video evidence, which prosecutors argued, proved the defendant lied when he said a man attempted to free suspects who were in police custody.

On Aug. 8, jurors announced they were deadlocked, in spite of the video evidence.

A Downside on their persuasion, they better say a couple of “Hail Marys” or “Help Me Lord,” before stepping off the curb.

Given that, I'm forced to rise on my cats' time schedule.

This morning was an especially bright, sunny morning, so my female, Fluffy, decided at about 6 a.m. that it was time for us to get up. She began by nudging my head with her head then licking my face with her sandpaper tongue.

That got her a few mumbles and a little neck scratching.

Next, she began walking up and down my body - back and forth, back and forth. When that didn't work she began to knead.

at lover that I am, I do have to admit there are a few downsides to living with them. For example, when they decide it is time for you to get out of bed, you might as well agree.

There is no point in arguing or trying to ignore them.

You'll never win unless you are willing to throw them out of the house.

For me, that is not an option. I believe urban cats should be in-house. The odds are against them with so many cars, especially on a busy boulevard like mine. Humans don't try to cross that street except at a light. Even then, depending

ever seen on a domestic cat. When she kneads, it does get my attention. I still wasn't ready to give in, so I pulled the covers over me to let her dig into them for a while.

Finally, in frustration, she called in her backup buddies, her brothers.

They sprawled across my stomach and chest then took nibbles at my chin and fingers. Fluffy meanwhile, moved up to sit on my head.

George L. Mallory, M.D. Oct. 9, 1920 – Aug. 24, 2016 George L. Mallory, M.D. (Oct. 9, 1920 – Aug. 24, 2016) was a prominent educator, psychiatrist, and civil rights activist in Los Angeles for over 62 years.

Dr. Mallory was born to his mother Julia Mallory, a domestic worker, and his father Oscar Mallory, a railroad worker. Despite being raised in the segregated South, Dr. Mallory found many positive influences in his family and the community of Richmond, Va. that served as the guiding principles and focus of his life.

Dr. Mallory spent his early adolescent life in the city of his birth, however it did not appear that living in the south would allow him to achieve his aspiration to become a medical doctor. In an attempt to escape the oppression of racism and in an effort to achieve his professional dreams, a young George Mallory moved north to New York. In 1939, after completing DeWitt Clinton High School in New York City, he matriculated to the City College of New York from 1940 to 1942.

His educational career was interrupted however from 1942 to 1945 while he valiantly served his country in the United States Army during WWII. Shortly after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, when the United States declared war on Japan, Germany, and Italy, Mallory was deployed to the Pacific theater in Hawaii. He was stationed in that region until his Honorable Discharge which coincided with the end of WWII. Undeterred from his educational goals and professional dreams, he attended Howard University in Washington, D.C. from 1946 to 1949, where he received his Bachelor of Arts Degree.

Working at the US Post Office at night, George Mallory enrolled in the Howard Univer-

sity, College of Medicine from 1949 to 1953. While married to Anna P. Mallory and raising two children, Lydia and George, Jr., he was awarded his Medical Degree.

In 1954, after completing his internship he moved his family to Los Angeles, where he completed his residency in psychiatry. In 1960, Dr. Mallory became a Board Certified Diplomat of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. As one of the few uniquely qualified African American Board Certified Psychiatrist in the country, Dr. Mallory dedicated his professional life to poor and underprivileged communities while he served as a clinical instructor, assistant clinical professor, and associate clinical professor at the University of Southern California School of Medicine. In addition, he served as an associate clinical professor at the University of California at Los Angeles School of Medicine, as well as an associate clinical professor at Charles R. Drew University School of Medicine and Science in Los Angeles.

Consistent with his lifetime commitment, after the 1965 Watts riots, Dr. Mallory joined his colleagues and community leaders in their efforts to heal a nation. He decided he could be of most service by working in the troubled and medically under-served South Los Angeles region. In the aftermath of the riots, Governor Pat Brown appointed a commission to identify factors which contributed to the unrest. One of the major findings of the commission was the lack of health care access near the low income neighborhoods of South Central Los Angeles.

Continually committed to making a difference, Dr. Mallory was one of the initial staff members at the Martin

Dr. George Mallory.

Luther King Jr./Drew Medical Center (“King/Drew”) in Watts/Willowbrook, the first full-service community and teaching hospital developed in response to the commission’s findings. Dr. Mallory authored the original concept document that resulted in funding to construct the Augustus F. Hawkins Mental Health Building on the MLK Campus.

During 30 years of continuous service, from 1959 to 1989, with the County of Los Angeles at the Los Angeles County USC Medical Center and King Drew Medical Center, Dr. Mallory served in numerous capacities from a staff psychiatrist to chief of adult psychiatry at King Drew Hospital. Dr. Mallory also served as the venerable director of residency training at the King-Drew Medical Center for many years. Notably, as a result of the remarkable instruction, direction, and mentorship he imparted to residents, the hospital psychiatric library was named in his honor. In 1991, he was called out of retirement and asked to serve as the interim chairman for the department of psychiatry at MLK Hospital, which he accepted.

Beginning in 1960, Dr.

Mallory maintained continuous membership and involvement in the National Medical Association, the Southern California Psychiatric Society, and the Charles R. Drew Medical Society. From 1965 to 1973, Dr. Mallory served as the president of the Black Psychiatrists of Southern California. In 1975, he became a fellow in the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and was elected to the position of recorder of the assembly.

Later Dr. Mallory became a life member and in 1988 was selected as a distinguished life fellow of the APA. As an active

On Sept. 1, 1990, Dr. Mallory married Naomi Booker.

Booker had four children, Andre’, Melody, Eric, and Karlos Booker. George and Naomi would have been married 26 years on Sept. 1, 2016.

Outside of his career, Dr. Mallory had tremendous love and commitment to his family. He leaves numerous loved ones including his wife Naomi Booker Mallory and his children Lydia Patton (pre deceased), George L. Mallory, Jr., and Lloyd Mallory. In addition, he leaves his stepchildren, including Marsha Hamilton, Karen Hamilton, Melody Booker, Andre’ Booker, Eric Booker, Karlos Booker, as well as his grandchildren, great grandchildren, and a host of relatives and many friends.

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 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. 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 sa le date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-651379-HL . 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 undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return o f the monies paid to the Trustee.

This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only.

Arcadia Mounts 13-Point Comeback in Fourth Quarter to Beat Rival Monrovia story By Christian Romo PhotoS by Jacob Bigley It had been five years since the Apaches last beat the Wildcats, but on Friday night, Arcadia finally bettered its rival.

Thanks to a wild fourthquarter comeback, the Arcadia Apaches (2-0) stunned the Monrovia Wildcats (0-3) 2221, Friday night in Monrovia.

An interception from junior Ramon Morfin (#2) with less than a minute to go sealed the victory for the Apaches, who rallied from a 21-9 fourth quarter deficit to shock the Wildcat crowd.

The Apache’s 13 unanswered points came despite first half defensive struggles and a scary hit that sent an Arcadia player to the hospital in the middle of the third quarter.

Apache Coach Andrew Policky didn’t credit any major second-half adjustments for his team’s win. “We tackled a little bit better … we went back to the basics … it was just one of those games,”

For voting for us two years in a row

he said.

Much of the credit should go to junior quarterback Maximillian Davila (#18), who ran in all three Apache touchdowns, including the goahead, one-yard draw late in the fourth quarter.

A fumble recovery from senior Isaiah Leon (#34) late in the fourth gave the Apaches

a go-ahead opportunity from the Monrovia 22-yard line, but they couldn’t convert on fourth down in the red zone.

On the very next play, Arcadia recovered another fumble on Monrovia’s 10yard line and this time the Apache’s took advantage.

When asked about the second fumble recovery, Davila said,

“I just thought, man, we’re going to win this.”

For Monrovia High School (MHS), the disappointing loss continues their early season struggles. “We’re not very good right now,” said Coach Jerry Chou, “we’re turning the ball over … [we’re committing] stupid penalties, we have to cut those out and get better every day.”

Senior Elijah Hall (#3), filling in at quarterback for injured starter Richie Schroeder, scored on a 72-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and a 61-yard touchdown pass to senior Cameron Montano (#10) in the third. Hall’s interception in the end zone towards the end of the third quarter seemed to seal the victory for the Wildcats, but fourth-quarter turnovers doomed MHS to a loss.

A frightening moment for both sides happened in the third quarter when Apache wideout Raeshawn Roland took a hit to the head, fell, and lied motionless on the field.

Trainers from both teams immediately rushed to help the unconscious Roland, and after several minutes, they were able to help him off the field and into an ambulance. After the game, the Apaches gathered in a semi-circle, chatted with their injured teammate via FaceTime, and they were able to spread the good news of their win to the hospital where Roland was recovering.

Policky expressed his concern and thankfulness that Roland had not suffered a more serious injury to his neck or extremities.

Next Friday, the Wildcats will attempt to snap their three-game losing streak against Whittier at Monrovia.

The Apaches will head home, hoping to extend their winning streak against Marana-

Monrovia Continues to Impress With Three-Set Win Over Maranatha

By Christian Romo Monrovia senior Angie Castenada (#21) proved she could do just about anything on a volleyball court, including serving the ball backwards.

Behind stellar performances from Castenada and senior Madison Mayoralgo (#24), the Monrovia Wildcats (7-3) swept Maranatha High School (7-3) (25-18, 2510, 25-13) Monday night in Pasadena. Though both teams exited the match with identical records, it became clear from the middle of the first set which was the superior team.

“She can play front

row, back row, anywhere she wants,” Monrovia Coach Wayne Teng said of Castenada, “all the girls look up to her to show that niche that she has.”

Castenada’s niche turned out to be Maranatha’s issue, as the home side struggled all night responding to Monrovia’s back row.

Both Castenada and Mayoralgo, whose defense Teng described as “unbelievable,” supplied Monrovia’s hitters with all the support needed to take down their opponent.

“I think we all worked better as a team today,” Castenada said.

“We finally put ourselves together.”

Caroline Mulvihill (#9) goes up for a spike against Marantha.

Maranatha, which started off strong with an 11-8 first set lead, soon gave way to mistakes and frustration.

“I think we got a little bit ahead of ourselves,” said Maranatha Coach Eli Cuenca. Maranatha committed eight straight errors at one point, a poor stretch from an otherwise gifted team.

Senior Mikaela Ashworth (#8) accounted for 12 of the team’s 25 total kills, while junior Tiffany Godley (#14) racked up 12 digs of her own, but they weren’t nearly enough to stop Monrovia’s aggressive attack.

“Rather than doing the extra things,” Cuenca said, “we just have to take

care of the small stuff.”

Teng emphasizes what he calls an international style of play, insisting that his players play multiple positions whenever needed on the court. The result is a
