n Tuesday, the Monrovia City Council voted unanimously to accept two new parcels of land as an addition to the Hillside Wilderness Preserve. The Trust for Public Land (TPL) has been negotiating to purchase two parcels of land adjacent to the Hillside Wilderness Preserve. The two properties are currently owned by Lee Horstman. The TPL asked if the city of Monrovia would take ownership of the properties if the group was able to purchase the land.

Council Member Gloria Crudgington called the potential gift to the city “an early Christmas present.

Council Member Becky Shevil echoed that sentiment saying “Merry Christmas to us.” The two properties total 157.31 acres and are surrounded by the HWP and other publicly owned lands. In an unrelated action, the council also finalized the rules for conduct in the HWP. A complete list of those rules can be found on this publication’s website: www.monroviaweekly.com

Signs finalized along Royal Oaks Drive between California Avenue and Shamrock Avenue During the past few months, the city has been working to finalize commemorative activities that recognize the contributions of the late Mayor Bob Bartlett. To that end, the city has been working on the development of a public art piece that is planned for installation down at Station Square, along with upgrading the existing signage along Royal Oaks Drive, which was dedicated in honor of Mayor Bartlett back in December 2014.

Royal Oaks Drive was chosen as the street that would be dedicated in Mayor

Bartlett’s honor given that he lived on the street as a child.

Currently, there is signage installed on Royal Oaks Drive honoring Mayor Bartlett, and a team has been working of late to upgrade that signage with a new look. To that end, the city has designed a commemorative sign that is similar to existing street signs, which plan to be installed on Royal Oaks Drive between California Avenue and Shamrock Avenue. The new signage is anticipated to be installed within the next few weeks.

The graduate Firefighters were rigorously tested and selected from a nationwide search. - File Photo by Terry Miller

Fire Chief Bertral Washington will preside over the graduation of twelve recruits to probationary firefighters this Thursday, Dec. 8 at 2 p.m. at Ambassador Auditorium, 131 S. St. John Ave. Pasadena.

The graduating class consists of: Adam Persitza, Joseph Berrett, Dustin Bury, Mark Cermak, William DePew, Michael Fiorenza, Brian King, Jonathan Maner, Calen Plouffe, Jordan Romero, Justin Soto and Tenoa Stevenson. Berrett, King

and Plouffe all got married this past October.

This cadre of Firefighters was selected from a nationwide search. They went through a very extensive written, psychological, physical and background process in addition to several layers of oral boards culminating with Chief Officer one-on-one final interviews. During their 16 week academy they endured hose and ladder drills, rigorous physical activities, academic and medical updates, haz-

ardous materials and wildland studies and emergency vehicle operations courses.

“Firefighting is one of the most sought after and challenging careers. As we strive for continuous improvement, representing the world class City of Pasadena, it is important to carefully select, train and evaluate new staff. They have proven to be top candidates who will not only be leaders in the fire service, but also in the community we serve.” states Chief Washington.

Man Allegedly Accidentally Shoots Himself, Waitress at Local Denny’s

Police said a man later identified as a man on probation apparently accidentally shot himself while he was sitting at table inside Denny’s Restaurant in the 2600 block of E. Colorado Blvd. at about 10:10 p.m.

Saturday night, and the bullet also struck a waitress.

The 36-year-old wait-

ress was not seriously injured and was treated at the scene by Pasadena Paramedics. Pasadena PD said the man fled the restaurant with “moderate injuries” in the company of several associates.

The man’s car was located by police at a nearby hospital as he was being

treated for his injury. He was detained and a hand gun was located during a search of his car, according to reports.

The man, a 32-year-old Pasadena resident who has not yet been identified, was arrested for being an exconvict in possession of a handgun.

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.

Reader Comments on ‘Sports Icon Rudy Bares All in Autobiography (12/01/16 Issue) Unintentionally, I'm sure, the sports article about Rudy Ruettiger makes a powerful case for birth control.

It describes Rudy as "the oldest son of an oil refinery worker in a strapped family of 14 children." And what follows is most revealing: "It wasn't the kind of childhood that encouraged ambitious goals."

Yes, Rudy became immensely successful -- and all of us are happy for him.

Yet, how about the millions who come from similar backgrounds? Are they all college graduates? Are they all successful?

Some are, of course -but most are not. And the main reason is the large poor families into which they were born.

The late Supreme Court jurist Antonin Scalia, who had a reputation as a witty man, once said that he and

his wife played "Vatican roulette." The result, of course, was their numerous children, which Scalia could well support and send to college with his handsome income.

Dare I be so bold and compare Judge Scalia to Rudy's father who supported 14 children on a refinery worker's salary, because he and his wife also played Vatican roulette?

ANW’S ‘A Christmas Carol’ Is a Glorious Production

BeaconMediaNews.com

Panto at the Playhouse: A Cinderella Christmas

By May S. Ruiz

T

he joyful observance of the holiday season isn’t complete without annual traditions one remembers with nostalgia. At A Noise Within (ANW), the classical repertory theatre company in Pasadena, it means a restaging of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.”

Celebrating its 25th anniversary and its fifth production of this time-honored tale, ANW will have 16 performances of “A Christmas Carol” starting Friday, Dec. 2 and closing Friday, Dec. 23.

Producing Artistic Directors Geoff Elliott (who adapted the play from the novella) and Julia Rodriguez-Elliott co-direct this masterpiece about the redemptive power of love.

Much like ANW’s ardent followers, the company’s resident artists look forward to this year-end event with anticipation.

“Remounting our acclaimed presentation of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” allows families to once again take a supremely theatrical journey, and celebrate the transformative power of forgiveness during the holidays,” says Elliott. Rodri-

guez-Elliott adds, “Ebenezer Scrooge’s rebirth from miserly curmudgeon to the epitome of love and generosity affirms our faith in the potent goodness of humanity during this beloved time of year.”

“The beauty of going back to these great works is that you have a history with it – because they are in your

muscle memory, you have the opportunity to discover new things,” explains RodriguezElliott. “You don’t have the same pressure of having to create something for the first time; it’s very lived in.”

“For me there’s a unique aspect every year – I can see something from a different perspective because I’m a year older,” Rodriguez-Elliott continues. “There are elements of a particular play that have altered because of where we are personally and where we are as a country. It takes on a different meaning for everyone, depending on where one is in life at that time.”

But wherever one finds himself in life, when the entire ensemble belts out Ego Plum’s majestic song ‘Glorious’ at the close, one will understand why it was undeniably worth the wait and coming back for.

ANW’s “A Christmas Carol” is like aged wine – its flavor gets deeper and richer with each year. One could never have too much of it.

folks are ready for some fun after the extra-long election season (two years, right?), and no matter the feelings about the results, the election is over! Whew…

Santa reports that he has only run into one grumpy grouch (last Saturday), and he responded with his usual booming ho ho ho’s (which can be heard from Olive Avenue to Foothill) and a warm greeting.

The first Santa Breakfasts went well, and this Saturday we have Jake’s Roadhouse at 9 a.m., Myrtle Tree Café at 10:15 a.m., and Rudy’s Mexican Restaurant at 11 a.m. All three restaurants are first come, first served, so make sure you get to your chosen venue early. Santa sings, dances and hands out gifts to the kiddies, so there is never a dull moment.

The first Carriage Rides last Sunday (stationed up at Library Park) were a huge success and will be repeated this coming Sunday the 11th and the following one on the 18th from 3 p.m. - 6 p.m. Starting this Thursday and continuing Thursdays through the 22nd we will also have wagon-style Carriage Rides wander up and down Myrtle from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Guess how much

Old Town the rides cost? How does $2 sound?!

If you want a chance to help a neighbor or two in need, Monrovia resident, Steve Bray, is doing his 2nd Annual FB $1 Donation Campaign. His (our) goal is to reach $6,000 by Dec. 20, and today as I write this column (on the 6th) we are at $1,033. Donations are accepted online at paypall. me/christmasinmonrovia, or you can donate in person at Teles Realty in Old Town, or at my store, The Dollmakers’ Kattywompus. Let’s do this, Monrovia!

I went to City Hall this morning looking for some exciting business news to include, but apparently both Old Town and City Hall are busy just keeping their collective heads above water. I couldn’t find any new business licenses and certainly no news on that 316 S. Myrtle eyesore: the side window is still broken and the blue tape is still around the windows. Sigh……. But, and this is really good news, none of my fellow business owners have whispered to me recently that they are thinking of calling it quits at the end of the year! For the 25 plus years that I have been in Old Town, this

has to be a first, and a very welcome first. This past year may have been challenging for most of us, but the feeling is much more positive. I was at Rudy’s the other night and I overhead a group of realtors talking about why they felt so positive about Monrovia. Top on their list of reasons why businesses are coming to Monrovia, everywhere, is because of Old Town. Makes me proud…

For the next two weekends the Old Town Merchants will be doing “Secret Santa” once again. Remember, that’s where someone who looks like a shopper in Old Town strolls around and unexpectedly stops one of our guests and hands them a package or two – gifts from the merchants including some of that great Old Town Cash! On Saturday, Dec. 17 there will be free gift wrapping on Myrtle (400 block), and you don’t have to prove you made your purchase at one of the local stores. Amazon Prime doesn’t wrap their packages, but we wrap theirs and everyone else’s! How’s that for the Holiday Spirit!

Until next week…have fun, and take a minute or two for yourselves!

Smoke Alarms

Continued from page 1

was attempting to fight the fire by himself and had to be restrained from returning to the structure to continue battling the blaze. That resident later died at the hospital as a result of the fire induced injuries.

Just over a week later on Dec. 3, at 1:15 a.m., an alert neighbor noticed smoke coming from a mobile home in the trailer park at 1020 S. Mountain Ave. just south of Canyon Oaks High School.

When police and fire personnel arrived at the scene, a man and a woman were found, unresponsive, in the home. The woman was declared dead at the scene, the man was later declared dead at the hospital.

The cause of the first fire at the apartment appears to

have been caused by the ignition of combustive material that was stored too close to a space heater. At the trailer park, the fire seems to have started in a trashcan. Fire personnel have speculated that a cigarette may have been thrown into the container.

The one thing these fires have in common was the lack of a functioning smoke alarm.

In the apartment fire there was a smoke alarm, but it was in another part of the home and did not react. Chief Dover said the second situation was a classic example of no working smoke detectors that could possibly have awoken the residents and saved their lives.

The Fire Chief pointed out that having a smoke alarm

itself was not enough. It is important to note the age of the alarm. “The smoke detectors have a limited life time,” Dover said. “If your smoke alarm is over 10 years old, you need to check its expiration date.”

According to the Chief the expiration date is listed on the alarm itself.

Both the fire and police chiefs stressed the importance of fire safety during the holidays: Candles, portable heaters and of course dry Christmas trees are always a fire hazard, but Chief Dover wanted to stress the importance of good, working smoke detectors.

You may go to Monrovia Fire HQ Station 101 for batteries and a limited supply of 10-year smoke alarms.

The Rose Leaf Ragtime Club, which meets on the last Sunday of every month, will have its next musical gettogether on Sunday Jan. 29, 2017 at Wang’s Place, 120 E. Lemon Ave., Monrovia, in the old town area. Because the last Sunday of December falls on Christmas Day, there will be no December meeting.

After stepping into the foyer, enter the separate meeting room through the

door to your right. The meeting time will be from 1 p.m. until approximately 4:30 p.m.

Owner Chrystal Wang prepares a scrumptious Allyou-can-eat Chinese buffet with non-alcoholic drinks included at $14.99 or we may order from the menu. There is also a full bar to order from. Free parking is available in several nearby cityowned lots or on the street

nearby. Most street parking is unrestricted on Sundays.

The Rose Leaf Ragtime Club features performers on piano and other instruments playing ragtime and other related types of music. All performers and listeners are welcome. The only charge is to non-performers who are asked to make a $2 donation.

Collective Hair

By Emily G. Peters

C

ollective Hair is a new hair styling concept founded by lifelong friends and expert stylists Rachael Scotti, Adrienne Reed and Marco Delgado. Both a salon and an educational program, Collective Hair serves as a breeding

ground for hot new hair talent seeking hands-on education.

Established in June 2016, the salon opened with the intent to instruct and enable the success of up-and-coming hair visionaries. Assistant hairdressers at the Collective are mentored in sound

hairdressing techniques and given ample opportunity to grow in the industry. This collective passion informed both the name of the salon and its founders’ desire to elevate the artistry of hairdressers under their guidance.

“We have a heart for

young hairdressers finding their niche in the industry,” said Scotti. “Our goal is to provide an education-rich environment and lead them to become independent stylists with a strong skill set.”

The three Collective Hair founders have impressive chops of their own. Delgado, an educator for V76 (an American-made men’s grooming line) travels the country teaching his unique vision and methods for men’s styling. Reed is a graduate of the prestigious Vidal Sassoon Academy and an expert styling and cutting instructor. Scotti specializes in color, developing top techniques through her studies in New York, Sydney and Los Angeles.

Through their combined 55 years of professional experience, they discovered their shared love of teaching and a desire to help others. “We teach quality hairdressing and set a standard for the work we do,” said Scotti. “We develop the eye to see color, shape and texture as an artform to better our craft.”

The Collective provides a broad range of hair services, from cuts to styling to texture services and extensions.

Their color offerings include virgin, retouching, ombré, balayage, highlights and more. Additionally, they offer consumer-friendly product lines including Bumble and Bumble, Davines and V76.

“We have so much to share, and that's what sets us apart,” said Scotti. “If there's a style a client wants, we can do it and we can teach it.”

With their location facing Paseo Colorado, Pasadena has proved to be an ideal homebase for the new business.

“Besides being the best city

ever, Pasadena has so much to offer a business like ours,” said Scotti. “The surrounding businesses and beautiful City Hall keep our walk-by traffic at a steady stream.” And, like any new company, the salon is gradually defining its community identity. “As a business with three owners, we equally share the responsibilities and are slowly finding our places within our company”, she said. “We're developing a culture based on our values and building our staff with intention.”

Ultimately, Collective Hair’s vision for advancing the craft of hairstyling extends beyond Pasadena. They hope to establish several salons in the surrounding area to develop more assistants into sharp independent stylists.

As they grow, this continued tutelage can only mean the best for aspiring hairdressers and clients seeking a positive hair experience. “We are supporters and we are encouragers,” said Scotti. “We’re here to bring out the best in our

PCC Student Turns His Life Around

W

hen Andrew Rocha started his first class in career counseling at PCC, he took it very seriously. He began his second stint as a PCC student coming back from a full-time retail job, in search of his future passion and ready to pour himself into his studies. When he read an occupational description of a career to design lasers as an optical engineer, he knew he wanted to go full-force into that area.

It was a decision with some serious consequences.

As a returning student, Andrew was in danger of exhausting his allotted six years of federal financial aid, especially if he hoped to transfer to a four-year university after community college. This meant that he would need to complete his time at PCC as quickly as possible as a full-time student. Without full-time employment and a steady income, his budget dwindled, and he found it hard to maintain his financial stability.

When money got so tight that he was unable to afford rent, Andrew decided to move into his car to save money.

This got him through a semester, but he couldn’t store food for any length of time, and he was constantly struggling to find new places to park his car every night, staying ahead

of the police and wary homeowners. When the car began to develop serious mechanical problems, he knew he was in trouble. Already living at the limits of his comfort, he feared that losing his car would mean he would never achieve his dream of graduating college.

It took a lot for Andrew to admit the reality of his situation. “I was always a prideful person,” he says. “I never wanted to ask for help.” When he finally did, though, he turned to PCC’s Dreamkeepers program.

Students in the program have to meet a certain number of requirements. They need to be taking a minimum of 6 units, and they have to have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0.

There’s also a unit completion requirement, but Brown says that shouldn’t keep students from seeking help. “Students should talk with us before they think, ‘Oh, this program’s not going to work for me,’” she says.

As a source of emergency assistance, grants from the program are paid directly to third parties, not to students.

If a student’s car is in the shop, the mechanic will receive a check from Dreamkeepers to cover the expenses — sometimes as soon as 24 hours after the grant is approved. “We know students have a lot on their mind, especially when

Andrew makes a positive change for his life.

there’s a crisis. Dreamkeepers is a safe place to talk about it,” Brown says.

For Andrew, the meeting with Dreamkeepers included a good dose of talk therapy.

PCC Student Shoots for the Stars Rendón, a second-year computer science student at PCC, was recently featured in a NASA profile highlighting her involvement in two futuristic projects with the space agency. As a member of professor Jamal Ashraf's "Swarmathon" team, Rendón has been working for the past year to program small robots to perform simple tasks, as a way of identifying advanced algorithms that could help future astronauts survive on the Moon, Mars, or other heavenly bodies.

Her participation in Swarmathon led to her selection to take part in Launching to Learn, a NASA project designed to introduce college students to the complex tasks involved in designing, building, and launching a rocket. Rendón said the process taught her as much about organizational dynamics as astrophysics.

“I was selected by my group to be our team leader,” the NASA story quotes Rendón as saying. “That

the problems with his car. The meeting took about an hour, and then Andrew waited for word of a solution.

Fernando delivered in a big way. In addition to paying the mechanic’s bill, “he found me a place to park without being hassled, he found places to get food, and he connected me with other

programs on campus that helped me out — little things that were available that I didn’t know about before,” Andrew says. Andrew started working with PCC’s MESA program, which provides tutoring and other assistance to disadvantaged students who are pursuing degrees in science and math.

The Dreamkeepers boost was just what Andrew needed. Crisis averted, he focused on completing his PCC degree, eventually transferring to the University of Arizona, which houses one of the country’s best programs in optical engineering. He hopes to go on to earn his doctorate in optical sciences.

For the past two summers, he has interned at NASA’s Glenn Research Center in Cleveland as part of the Integrated Radio and Optical Communications project team developing new technologies to improve laser communications from distances beyond Mars. Financial aid grants, federal loans, scholarships, and a stipend from the internship have improved his financial situation as well. His basic needs are being met, and he rents a small apartment in Tucson.

To those that would come behind him, he has simple advice: “You have to look at everything you’ve gone through to get to this point, and you’ve still survived,” he says. “It doesn’t even matter what goes on around you, you’ll always have something to fight for.

“You have a choice to turn things around.”

I’ve heard that love comes when you least expect it. I certainly was not expecting my life to be so drastically changed over the past year – with love times four! After I lost my beloved kitty Simon over a year ago, I thought I would give myself some time to grieve, “finish” remodeling the house, and then I would adopt older rescue kitties.

One day my neighbor came running up to me. She had just rescued a kitten climbing the fence at the local

park where many coyotes hang out in the evening. I really didn’t want a kitten, but I couldn’t help but think that this little one was sent to me by Simon. I had no choice – I took the kitten.

But the kitten was lonely. After much searching, I found Lifeline for Pets in Pasadena, a wonderful no-kill rescue facility. They encouraged me to come over and see the three older cats that I was interested in adopting. Those cats would have nothing to do with me, though one kitty, 2-year old Otis, got up in a cat tree, draped his head over the edge, and gave me his “adopt me” look. Otis’s brother and best friend were both adopted, but Otis was always left behind. After many more attempts to win over the three older cats, I figured they just weren’t in the cards for me, but Otis certainly was. I’ve always thought that three was the ideal number of cats to have, so I decided to also adopt 5-year old Katana. It took a while for everyone to sort out the hierarchy.

I’m not sure who the alpha is, but I am definitely on the wait staff! The day I walked into the bedroom and saw all three kitties lying peace-

fully on the bed was a moment of sheer joy to me.

Otis is definitely the social one of the group, welcoming visitors and endlessly entertaining me with his fascination of the outside world, watching Moth TV in the evening. He keeps me company when I am working on the computer or lying down with a book to read, making sure I give him plenty of face rubs. He is usually the first to greet me when I come home. I am never alone and am always loved. I am also perpetually covered in white fur, but that’s why they made lint brushes. I haven’t finished the house remodel – probably never will - but we now have a wonderful catio addition. And life was so good that our family recently adopted a 12-year old kitty, who fit into our home perfectly with just a minor adjustment period.

The saying “to love is to be blessed” is so very true!

Now, instead of going home to an empty house, I go home to a wonderful place filled with the love and antics of Otis and three other special kitties. I have been blessed, and four is now my new favorite number of kitties to have!

Use the 50/20/30 Rule to Save a Million Dollars

By Robyn Dutton

M

oolah, dough, dinero, cash... money. Whatever you want to call it, it’s a good thing to have in the bank. Millennials are in a unique stage in their lives where they have plenty of time to both earn and save, so it’s important to form good habits for the future. It’s hard to establish guidelines for how and where to spend your money, so following the rule of 50/20/30 allows for a reasonable and positive structure. It also saves you from throwing around money like a rapper in a strip club… you’re welcome. So, without further ado, here are the guidelines: 50 percent (or less) of your paycheck should be spent on: essentials. You know, things like shelter, food, transportation, utilities and all other necessities. No, that new top at the mall you “need” doesn’t count. These are reasonable basics for survival in your current stage of life, which you absolutely could not do without. Rent or mortgage payments shouldn’t exceed 35 percent of this number and the other categories should fill in the rest. As with everything, this varies per person. You may pay higher rent to live downtown in a big city, but you walk everywhere, and thus, save on transportation costs. Whatever way you work it, just make sure you are coming in under the half a dollar mark.

20 percent (or more) of your paycheck should be spent on: savings. This one doesn’t need much explaining, however, it’s unfortunately one of the most overlooked areas for

millennials. Why? It doesn’t heed our need for immediate gratification. So, let’s have the numbers do the talking. According to U.S. News, if you start saving at age 25 and put away $4,830 annually, you will reach $1 million by age 65. Palm Springs here you come!

30 percent (or less) of your paycheck should be spent on: personal expenditures. After all your essentials and savings have been allocated, you can now think about your personal desires. These are optional expenses and are the largest variable that dictates what your savings account will look like and what your lifestyle will look like. Personal expenditures can include entertainment, gym memberships, hobbies, travel, shopping and dining. Dining surprised you there, didn’t it? It’s a personal expense because it varies month to month and person to person. One week you could be sipping mimosas and trying a new fancy restaurant and the next week you could be making home cooked meals

of veggies and cheap staples without even so much as looking at the takeout menu. The trick in this area is to know yourself and know what’s important to you to establish a balance between living a rewarding life as well as a responsible one.

I understand it’s tough to manage so many payments, but I’d recommend getting familiar with your statements. Many online bank portals will categorize your bank and credit card payments so you can easily navigate where your funds are being allocated with just a click. Graphs, charts and reports are your new best friends. It’s also recommended that you download a budget spreadsheet for your own use to input your personal figures to match your goals. I’m hopeful these steps will put you on the path to success and get you some more of that sweet money, money, monaaaay.

If all else fails just marry rich, right?

Wrong. Go work on that budget.

Section 10.16.085 of the Monrovia Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows (text to be added is underlined).

“10.16.085 PARKING PROHIBITED ON DESIGNATED STREETS. (A) Designated as prohibited parking. Except as otherwise provided herein, when signs have been posted giving notice that parking is prohibited, during hours and on such streets as may be designated by resolution of the City Council, it shall be unlawful for any person to park any vehicle in violation of such prohibition.

(B) Parking permits.

(1) Residents and/or merchants residing or doing business on any street upon which parking is prohibited by this section or any accompanying Resolution of the City Council may apply to the Chief of Police or a designee thereof to obtain a permit or permits exempting such persons and/or their guests from such parking restrictions on a street or streets designated in the permit. Each application shall be submitted on a form approved by the Chief of Police and accompanied by satisfactory evidence that the applicant is a resident, merchant, or guest entitled to a permit and the required fee as established by resolution of the City Council.

(2) Each permit for residents and merchants shall be valid for one calendar year from the date of issuance so long as the permittee remains qualified to receive the permit and the permit has not been revoked. Permits for guests can be obtained for a period of up to 30 days or for a period of 24 hours. Permits may be renewed upon application in a manner consistent with the initial application process as determined by the Chief of Police. The Chief of Police may revoke a permit for cause including, without limitation, repeated violations of applicable parking restrictions, failure to pay City parking citations, or falsifying information in permit application.

Any permit revocation may be appealed to the City Manager or his designee and any decision on appeal shall be final.

The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this Ordinance and each section, subsection, clause and phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clause or phrase be declared invalid or unconstitutional, and would have passed and adopted the same even though any sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases that may be held invalid had been omitted there from. The portions of the Code section amended by this Ordinance that are not being amended are declarative of existing law.

SECTION 4. Publication and Posting. Within fifteen (15) days following the passage of this Ordinance, the City Clerk shall publish and/or post this Ordinance as required by state law and City resolution.

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 Califor-

nia 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.

Wildcats Defeat Gabrielino 2-0 in an Interesting Fashion Story and photos by Jacob Bigley

Hardy Scores Twice in Arcadia Girls Soccer Win Over PHS

By Christian Romo The Apache attack needed help early on, and found it by subbing in last year’s second-leading scorer.

Behind two goals and an assist from senior forward Eden Hardy (23), the Arcadia Apaches (1-0-0) beat the Pasadena High Bulldogs (1-2-1), 4-0, Tuesday afternoon in Pasadena.

Hardy began the game on the bench, but helped Arcadia dominate possession as soon as she entered.

“In the center in the beginning, we weren’t doing very well,” Hardy said, “but in the end we started to pick it up.” Hardy scored her first goal off the right post in the 52nd minute, and scored her second from fifteen yards out off a pass from senior Sarah Gutierrez (2) twelve minutes later.

Arcadia senior Alexis Sorrell helped maintain possession by initiating quick passes in the midfield and pressuring the Bulldog defense. “[We wanted to] play faster, not as physical, and distribute the ball,” she said. “The longer you have to hold the ball, the dirtier you have to play.”

The Bulldog attack found space midway through the match, putting three shots on goal towards the end of the first half and another three in the beginning of the second. “We settled down a bit more,” said PHS coach Mercado. “As we understood what the structure of the defensive half was going to be, I thought that benefited us a bit.”

Hardy not only scored twice, but also passed effectively in the penalty area.

Her left side cross in the 26th minute found junior Serena Rosas (21) diving at the far post, giving Rosas her first goal of the season and the Apaches a comfortable 2-0 lead. “It’s hard to find a bad thing to say about her,” said Arcadia coach Ryen Piszyk, “she’s definitely a game-changing player.”

Despite the win, Piszyk saw room for improvement.

“It was our first game of the season, so obviously there’s a lot of question marks in terms of position.” Eden agreed, saying: “We’re not used to each other’s styles yet…but that’s going to come with time and working together.”

Arcadia continues league play at Muir Friday at 3:30, while Pasadena hosts Burbank at the same time.

onrovia Wildcats had numerous opportunities to capitalize on prime field position and beautiful crosses. In the 64th minute, the Wildcats finally found the back of the net, however, not in a traditional sequence of plays.

With under 15 minutes remaining, the Gabrielino Eagles received a free kick just outside of their own goalies box. In an attempt to catch the Monrovia defense off-guard, a Gabrielino defender tried to hurry up the kick. In doing so, Monrovia forward David Johnson (#10) was walking with his back towards the ball only a couple feet away. The ball struck Johnson on his back heel and deflected towards the left sideline, headed for out of bounds. Monrovia Wildcat’s speedster, Chus Estrada (#11), had other plans and reached the ball before going out of bounds.

He sprinted down the left line with the ball at his feet, stopped on a dime and delivered a right footed cross heading just in front of the center of the net.

Photo1 While Estrada was in action, Johnson began to head down the center of the field and was in perfect position to header it into the net giving the Wildcats a 1-0 lead with 14 minutes remaining in the match.

Muir Falls to Fairfax 59-48, Finishes Classic in Second Place

By Christian Romo

Muir stepped closer to their first ever Rose City Roundball Classic title on Saturday, but couldn’t match Fairfax’s championship performance.

Taking second place in the fourteenth annual Classic, the Muir Mustangs (31) lost to the Fairfax Lions (4-0), 59-48, Saturday night at Maranatha High School in Pasadena. Senior Javonte James (1) led the Mustangs with 18 points while junior Hunter Woods (0) grabbed a team-high eight rebounds, adding three blocks and two steals.

Though his players Continued from page 18

Johnson also had this to say about the many opportunities the Wildcats had but couldn’t capitalize

were disappointed with the loss, Muir coach Simaine Stewart praised their effort.

“A couple mishaps, blown plays, but overall, we played well,” he said. Stewart said his team needed to work on team defense, but called the second-place finish “a great start to the season.”

Despite missing three starters, Fairfax rolled through the tournament, challenged only by PHS in a two-point semifinal win.

“It was a phenomenal team win,” said Fairfax coach Steve Baik. “We’re missing a couple of all-city guys…for us to put it together like that,

it was incredible.”

Fairfax sophomore Ethan Anderson (20) was named the tournament’s most valuable player, putting up 23 points on 10-16 shooting in the title game.

James, Woods, and junior point guard Tiyon Martin (2) were named to the alltournament team for the Mustangs.

The Wildcat’s capped off their victory with another goal by Jonathan “Johnny” Goettling (#9) in the 73rd minute with a left

footed strike from the center of the box and handing the Wildcats the victory over Gabrielino 2-0.
