Triple homicide suspect faces multiple murder charges and attempted murder of police officer and others BY TERRY MILLER On Monday morning Pasadena city officials held a news conference on the shooting rampage that occurred Saturday afternoon in which five people were shot and three people were killed at the hands of a gunman armed with semiautomatic weapons and lots of ammunition. The suspect in Saturday’s triple homicide has been charged with three counts of murder and three counts attempted murder, including the attempted murder of a police officer. John Izeal Smith, 44, was arraigned Tuesday in Pasadena Superior Court. The charges also carry the special circumstance of multiple murders and the special allegation he intentionally discharged a rifle. Prosecutors are not yet certain if they will seek the Please see page 31

Emergency regulation Passionists say moratorium approved to ensure state on building doesn’t “kill the residents increase water project” in Sierra Madre BY SHEL SEGAL conservation $500 a day fines possible for offenders In response to the ongoing severe drought, on Tuesday the State Water Resources Control Board approved an emergency regulation to ensure water agencies, their customers and state residents increase water conservation in urban settings or face possible fines or other enforcement. The new conservation regulation is intended to reduce outdoor urban water use. The regulation, adopted by the State Water Board,
mandates minimum actions to conserve water supplies both for this year and into 2015. Most Californians use more water outdoors than indoors. In some areas, 50 percent or more of daily water use is for lawns and outdoor landscaping. Many communities and water suppliers have taken bold steps over the years and in this year to reduce water use; however, many have not and much more can and Please see page 18
As the Sierra Madre City Council passed a moratorium on new construction requiring a water connection at its July 9 meeting, the proposed development of a portion of open space at the Mater Dolorosa Passionist Retreat Center in the north part of the city is met with new challenges. And as the passionists are preparing to sell that land for the construction of approximately 50 new homes, Cameron Thornton, spokesman for the group, said the

Immigration crisis: Obama requests billions in aid
12178
According to the Department of Homeland Security, 57,000 Central American children, mostly from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador, have crossed the US boarder since October. This number is twice as high as the number of the same period from the previous year and ten times as high as the number of 2009. The children that survive the dangerous journey are fleeing from poverty and crime in their countries, hoping to have a better life here, or to reunite with parts of their family who are already in the US. Some parents send their children because they believe rumors that their kids will be allowed to stay in the US once they crossed the border. In 2008, former President George W. Bush signed the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act – a law to fight child/sex trafficking. Whereas Mexicans or Canadians

whether they are allowed to stay or not. Due to the enormous number of immi-
in processing facilities of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Some children
do not even show up in court. Two weeks ago, protestors in Murietta attempted to block migrant children and families from entering processing facilities. The Obama administration requested $3.7 billion last Tuesday to increase the number of border patrol official, judges, and detention centers, and to improve the living conditions of the refugee children while waiting on their hearings. Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers says that the White House will not approve Obama’s request: "It's too much money.” He adds: "There are pieces of it that need to be dealt with immediately and that's what we're working on." Democrat Rep. Luis Gutierrez declares: "I plan to support the president's budget request but we must make sure that we do not short-circuit justice for the children. They get their day in court as the law mandates."
AEF Summer School Showcase 2014 slated July 29 On Tuesday, July 29 students at AEF's Summer Middle School will once again "show off" at this year's Summer Showcase! The Summer Showcase is an annual open house hosted by the Arcadia Educational Foundation (AEF), students, and teachers that spotlights the amazing work created by the students. Following up on the success of last year's event, 2014 promises to be even more jam-packed with exciting music and dance performances, multimedia projects, art displays, science experiments, student-made food and desserts, and their newest tradition: launching a weather balloon into space with the Space Race class! New events this year will be the "performance" of the Mad Scientist Engineering Challenge class's roomsized Rube Goldberg chain reaction machine, as well as a silent auction for the Repurpose Art class's beauti-
ful license plate map of the USA. All proceeds from the auction, as well as from the sale of refreshments and student-made stenciling and photography postcards, will directly benefit AEF. Arcadia Educational Foundation is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to provide financial support to the Arcadia Unified School District to help preserve, maintain, and improve educational programs for the students within the District. Showcase 2014 will be held on July 29, 2014 at Dana Middle School, 1401 S First Avenue in Arcadia from 9:45am through 1pm.

Dorothy's Place From the Classroom #3 Names and Memories
By Dorothy Denne When you teach school as long as I did, names take on special meaning to you. Just hearing a particular name can trigger a stream of memories, some good - some not so good. John is one of those. It is definitely a name that belongs in my happy memories file. One little John that I especially remember is a great example of how easily children can both amaze and be amazed. I had taken my elementary school class of mentally-gifted students to the Amtrak station as part of a field trip.
At the time John was six years old and just starting in the second grade group. He was especially small, especially bright and always amazing. My friend had accompanied us as an adult chaperon. John clung to her hand as the guide explained the operation of the big engines. He gave a little tug, looked up at her with wondrous dark eyes and whispered, "Mrs. Kammuellar, can you imagine, with such tremendous horsepower, the terrific wind velocity when they are traveling at maximum speed?" My friend was rendered temporarily speechless so little John looked at me, shrugged his shoulders and said simply,
On June 26, a theft was reported by the resident at 111 McKinley Place. Two very heavy white marble sculpture dragon pieces were stolen from the yard. The sculptures were situated near the mailbox in front of the property. They were extremely heavy and it would have taken more

"Huh. I guess she can't imagine it." John is also proof that love is real. He was a thoughtful little child. Later in the year, as my birthday approached, his mom warned me ahead of time that he had used his own allowance money to buy me a "Topaz" birthstone ring. On the big day, he gave it to me with all his love and stood beaming as I oooed and aaahed. One of the other less thoughtful boys said, "Aahh, it's only a fake." Poor little John stood crest-fallen. Not to be easily daunted, he suddenly brightened, lifted his head, stuck out his chin and proudly announced, "Well, it's a real fake!"

Recycle Used Oil & Filters! Do you change your car’s motor oil? Did you know that used motor oil and oil filters are recyclable? Used oil can be re-refined or processed into new motor oil. Currently only 46% of used motor oil is being recycled, which means 20 million gallons may be illegally entering California’s waterways via stormwater systems, posing a great risk to the environment. One gallon of used oil can contaminate a million gallons of drinking water; polluting our waterways and threatening fish and aquatic life. Prevent pollution; recycle used motor oil and filters!

Dear Editor: I am writing to express my concern about crowd safety and thoroughfares at the annual Monrovia Fireworks show. I am writing from the perspective of a physically disabled person with a walker, but this should be of concern to everyone, not just me. My fiancé and I were visiting the weekly street fair in Monrovia today. As I try to plan around my disability, we tried to leave before the fireworks started, so I could maneuver my walker before the crowds became very dense. Unfortunately, our plans did not work out. Most people were gracious, and did their best to allow me the space to pass through to our car,

finally escape, after the fireworks ended, but those were extremely terrifying moments that could have been avoided. I am, of course, upset that the lady in front of me pretended I did not exist. However, the main reason I am writing today is to urge the organizers of city events like this to consider instituting a permanent clear passage through this crowd. This fireworks show is meticulously planned every year, and the organizers must have some idea of the crowds they expect to see. If things had gone much worse for me today, if my panic attack was just the start, I would have been in the middle of a crowd of unmoving people, stranded in
my walker, with no room for paramedics or emergency response officials to reach me. And it might not have been me that they needed to reach. It might have been anyone in that crowd. This is why I am urging city officials to consider a clear passageway (a fire lane) on Myrtle Avenue, even during the street fairs and festivals, so that even if someone is stuck in the middle of a crowd, emergency response officials will have the opportunity to get through - and all of us can rest a little easier as we wait for our turn to move. Thank you for your time and your consideration. Regards, Carolyn Insunza

which I truly appreciate. However, at the top of the hill, things became difficult. The crowd became densely packed, my fiancé and I became separated, and no matter how many times I asked the lady in front of me if she would let me through to my car, she would not even look me in the eye. This was the only path through the crowd. Cut off from my fiancé with no way to communicate, and no prospect of being able to move, I began to hyperventilate and have a panic attack - what if I happened to collapse in this very packed space? No emergency vehicles would have had a chance to get through that crowd in a timely manner. I did
the Council and the people with complete and accurate financial figures. We have already experienced the piecemeal department approach, which does not ring true. For example, the water pumps have been shut down for over eight months, but the electrical cost has not been reduced one cent. The Public Works' charge to the water income is higher than the entire annual cost of the entire department. S50M of building improvements in 2012 only show an increase of approximately $190,000 when the correct income should reflect an income of over $1 million. How many items of expense can be reduced or eliminated in order to provide financial relief for the people? Why is the franchise fee in all the utilities being back charged on the customers billings and then the ULJT is added on top of that? It used to be that the utility company
paid a franchise fee to the City period, with no charges to the people. There is no real need for the Energy and Environment Commission. If solar panels and wind farms reduce electrical costs, then why are our electrical bills higher instead of lower since the Edison Company has very large installations that they have? The Planning Commission needs to adopt a positive attitude on how they can approve the applicant's plans instead of finding fault, instead of granting approvals the first times. Every property owner has the right to develop his property regardless of when they purchase the property and the City is obligated to provide all services to the property. The redevelopment fees alone are enough to choke a horse. The $753,000 fees on the assisted living facility and an average of S50,090 or more on each
new home should provide sufficient funding to begin with. This says nothing about the permanent property tax increases. Will the City ever tell us how they plan to spend this money? The City needs to focus on how much they can reduce costs to the property owner in every way that they can. The other levels of government are doing a great job of taxing too much so the City should try to give the people lower costs in every area under their control. Be merciful to the people and lift off every regulation and reduce every fee a much as possible. If the City will change their attitude and adjust their operations so that they truly serve the people as they should, then they will truly put into practice what they should. Isn't that what they are promised to do before they started on the job? Sierra Madre Watchman
Reader concerned about securing our borders Dear Editor: How could the Pasadena Independent run a press release by the California Table coalition, which mocked the flag-waving protesters in Murrieta as "elitist, bigoted and anti-child," and pass the story off as journalism ("Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles," July 10, 2014)? The mainstream and alternative press alike demonize and marginalize patriotic Americans (including groups
like Latinos for Immigration Reform), who oppose illegal immigration on grounds of economics and law, not ethnicity and race. In 1982, the Supreme Court ruled that illegal immigration is a crime. Remaining in the country illegally is a continuing crime (INS v. Lopez-Mendoza). But activists and politicians of all stripes ignore the blatant, wholesale violation of law and sovereignty by impoverished hordes who make a run for the border or
overstay their visas. Meanwhile, Congressional Representative Judy Chu and Senators Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein all wring their hands over the "humanitarian crisis" at the border with no regard for the security and welfare of American citizens and taxpayers. America seems to be at a crossroads. Either we have a country with secure borders -- or no borders at all. Les Hammer

Letters to the Editor (Cont.) Hamas isn't part of the peaceful solution Dear editor, It has barely been a month since the western world expressed its support for the formation of a Palestinian unity government. Since then there have been kidnappings, murders, hundreds of rockets fired at civilian towns, huge levels of violence and an escalation
is imminent. The US State department said that they would be watching closely to make sure that the Palestinian unity government would uphold the principles of peace; British foreign Minister William Hague said, "We have made clear that our continued support to the new government
will rest on its commitment to the principle of non-violence". How much more proof does the western world need to acknowledge that Hamas isn't part of the peaceful solution to the conflict the world desires? Michelle Moshelian Hana Senesh 5/2 Givatayim
End of the Roadhouse Dear Editor: Roadhouse Coffee has reached the end of the road. Our month-to-month lease has been terminated to allow for the building of what Temple City really needs, another Asian Restaurant. Roadhouse Coffee was
established in June of 1994. It was the first of its kind to offer a venue for young and old alike. A place for people to feel at home away from home. A place where everyone knew your name. I sincerely regret closing our doors and our home to our faithful friends.
I will miss you all. The irony is that our lease has been terminated on the heels of news that the Starbucks (which opened after Roadhouse) signed an exclusive agreement with the property owner. Sincerely, Carl Cicchetti

pated due to the helicopter’s hovering activities. Hacienda Park will also be closed completely during working hours on July 23 through the 25th and then again from July 27 to the 30th. Intermittent park closures will occur on July 21 and 22nd and again on July 26th. During the project's entirety, there will also be periods of brief traffic interruptions and street/freeway closures on Royal Oaks Dr., Hacienda Dr., Encanto Parkway, Huntington Drive and the 210 freeway as well. Periodic traffic interruptions will be typically three to five minutes in length. Edison has filed a traffic plan with the City utilizing a variety of traffic control measures including signs and crewmembers carrying flags. Note: Intermittent closures on the 210-freeway will occur between 5:00 am and 9:00 am on Sunday, July 27th only. This is being done as part of the final phase of
work for Edison’s Tehachapi Renewable Transmission Project. Once completed in 2015, the project will deliver electricity from wind energy generators in Kern County south through Los Angeles County and east to San Bernardino County to help meet California’s 20% renewable energy goals. Edison has been informing the community in a variety of ways about the project through mailings and door-to-door outreach. In addition, there is also a link on the sce.com/trtp website that opens to a Duarte Construction Information page where residents can view up to the minute construction updates throughout the duration of the project. Residents and businesses also have the opportunity to sign up to receive email construction alerts.

FCC votes to expand internet access for schools and libraries State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson applauded a ruling by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Friday that marks a major step toward preparing students for the global economy by expanding Internet access for schools and libraries. The FCC voted today to modernize the E-rate program and boost support for wireless connectivity for schools and libraries. This action is designed to expand wireless access, make E-rate dollars go further, and deliver faster, simpler, and more efficient applications and other processes. Known formally as the federal Schools and Libraries Program, Erate established a surcharge on long-distance telephone bills in 1997 that provides discounts to assist schools and libraries in obtaining affordable telecommunications and Internet access. “Our schools, society, and economy thrive on interconnectivity,” Torlakson said. “Today’s action will
not only help narrow the digital divide among students, but also help us reach and teach every child so they will be prepared for the world that awaits them.” Torlakson has championed efforts to update E-rate. In March 2012, he convened his Education Technology Task Force to bring 21st century tools into California's classrooms so that no child is left offline. He has also brought together other state superintendents via the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) to work together on this issue. Last September, Torlakson went to Washington, D.C., to push for increased federal assistance to provide broadband access for all students and schools across California. While there, he co-chaired the CCSSO's Digital Learning Task Force to discuss and meet with members of the FCC, the White House, and the U.S. Department of Education. He also met with U.S. Senators to discuss E-rate.
In June of last year, President Barack Obama proposed modernizing the E-rate program as part of his ConnectED initiative, which Torlakson at the time called "a huge step in the right direction." The FCC opened a public comment period soon afterward. Torlakson encouraged local superintendents and other education stakeholders across California to weigh in, and the California Department of Education also submitted its comments. Among the state's priorities are expanding the program; making it easier to apply for and receive funding; ensuring the flexibility to take advantage of future technologies; distributing funding according to highest-priority needs; and allowing for adequate bandwidth to support wireless access as schools continue moving toward a one-to-one computer ratio. For more information on today’s vote, visit the Federal Communications Commission’s Web site.

Monrovia resident’s ‘Turning 50 Bucket Senior Grant Fundraiser at List’ includes 50 marathons in 50 States Westminster Gardens draws a large crowd The map on the wall of her cubicle at Southern California Edison (SCE) is not only evidence of where Paige Conner has been, but a constant reminder of the remaining stops along the way to her goal of running 50 marathons in 50 states before turning 50. Conner’s first marathon was the LA Marathon in 2006. Now at age 45, she has already completed 26.2 miles in 35 states and is well on her way to completing her goal of 50 marathons. “Every place has wonderful surprises and great people,” she said. “It is electrifying to see strangers lining the route and cheering you on and encouraging you. I often think that if we could bottle up that generosity of spirit and bring it to the workplace, that could really help.” It was a few years back at a race on Catalina Island that she met another runner who talked about the 50 states club. Conner thought the challenge of completing 50 marathons would be a great way to continue running and see the country at the same time. Especially important to her was the opportunity to travel with her mom, her unofficial coach, and share her accomplishments and the joys of discovering new places. “My mother passed almost two years ago and when I run, I feel her,” said
Conner. “Life is precious and we should live each moment as best we can with gratitude, living in the moment — running helps me capture that.” A nine-year employee in SCE’s Human Resources Department, Conner is the manager for Executive Talent Planning and Development. She says HR work can be hard at times, but she sees her job as “providing support and working with people on finding the best possible solutions for the unique issues they may face along their career path.” No. 35 on Conner’s map is pinned on Michigan, where she recently finished her latest marathon along scenic Lake Michigan. Next on the list is a visit to Pennsylvania in September for the Erie Marathon along the Great Lake. This October, Conner and her running partner will run two marathons in as many days in Connecticut and Rhode Island. But Conner insists she is not a runner. “I am not a runner!” she said. “I don’t have a runner’s build, but when I run, I have a chance to breathe and think, and sometimes even an opportunity to try to solve problems I may be working on at the office. It is a great way to stay healthy and to travel and see the country.” Conner believes that running is 90 percent mental. She typically trains 10 to

15 hours a week, but trained much more extensively when she did an Ironman triathlon competition last June (a 2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike ride and a marathon run). With five years left to reach her 50 marathons in 50 states goal, Conner is already thinking of new goals to set. “I think about events I have not run yet and perhaps about events on every continent, or about maybe climbing Kilimanjaro,” she said. Conner has simple advice for people interested in running. “I tell people to set a goal, to start little by little,” she said, “To get together with others who can help and to go after it bit by bit.”

60. “But what is interesting is the fact we get many people like them who are in board and care. And they chose not to live in a board and care. Some of them can be quite functional making just a minimal amount of money. But they chose to live on their own and on their own resources.” McSween said the brothers have had to relocate in Monrovia as the house they were living in was sold. But while the brothers would do their best to find housing on their own, they just needed someone to give them a little boost. “They would basically ride their bikes throughout Monrovia and look for signs saying, ‘For Rent,’” she said. “They would call the
numbers and if it was in their price range they would call me up. I knew since there was no family to assist them that somebody had to help them. Yes, it’s my job to sell the house. Is it my job to relocate the tenants? No. But there is something that tugs at your heart … and you have to help those in need.” The brothers ride the bus all over the San Gabriel Valley to wash windows, McSween said. However, she is hoping for their sake that a home or business in Monrovia could offer them some work washing windows closer to their home. McSween said that while some people act awkwardly when first meeting the brothers, there is no need to. “Some people don’t
know how to act when they’re around them because they’ve never been around them,” she said. “Because I’m retired from the Department of Justice and I used to work for the Department of Social Services…I have become accustomed to being around them. I kind of knew what level they were functioning on.” In addition, she is accepting monetary donations and donations of household items for the brothers. For more information on donating to the Lewis brothers, please call McSween at (626) 695-4665. (Shel Segal can be reached at ssegal@ beaconmedianews.com.

Monrovia Providers Group, a local non-profit organization dedicated to assisting local senior citizens with urgent needs that are not being filled elsewhere, hosted a “Summer Breeze,” fundraiser to benefit their grant program on Friday evening. The event was hosted
by Westminster Gardens in Duarte with food provided by StoneFire Grill in Pasadena. MPG seeks to fulfill senior requests for vital everyday needs; such as dentures and diabetic shoes, and for repairing or replacing an oven, refrigerator and heat-
er for home-bound senior citizens in Monrovia and surrounding communities. Paid grants have totaled nearly $2,700 in the first quarter of 2014. The proceeds from this event will allow Monrovia Providers Group to continue this vital assistance to our older neighbors.

Senator Alex Padilla was on hand with Caltech’s Dr. Lucy Jones, U.S. Geological as she spoke of the importance of the EEWS last year. –File photo by Terry Miller
Rep. Adam Schiff (DBurbank) announced that the Appropriations Committee has included $5 million in funding in the Fiscal Year 2015 Interior and Environment Appropriations bill for the Earthquake Early Warning System, the first time Congress has ever provided funding specifically for the system. Earlier this year, Schiff led a group of 25 Members from California, Washington and Oregon in organizing a request that the committee fund an early earthquake warning system. A limited system developed by Caltech, UCBerkeley and University of Washington, in conjunction with the United State Geological Survey (USGS), has already been deployed and has proven that the early warning technology is sound. This $5 million in funding will allow those developing the statewide system to begin purchasing and installing additional sensors, hire new staff members, and come closer to deploying comprehensive early earthquake warning coverage throughout earthquake prone regions of the West Coast. The Schiff language included in the Appropriations bill reads: “…the Committee provides $5,000,000 from within the funds provided for Earthquake Hazards to transition the earthquake early warning demonstration project into an operational capability on the West Coast.” “It’s critical that the West Coast implement an earthquake early warning system that will give us a heads up before the ‘big one’ hits, so we can save lives and protect infrastructure,” said Rep. Schiff. “We are constantly reminded of our vulnerability
– with tremors, earthquakes and aftershocks rattling our homes and businesses – and even a few seconds of warning will allow people to seek cover, automatically slow or stop trains, pause surgeries and more. This first phase of funding will allow the work to begin expanding the system, and we will continue to work to secure future funding along with our other federal, state and local partners.” "Caltech and its partners are very grateful that the House of Representatives is sending a strong signal of support for implementation of an earthquake early warning for the West Coast," said President Thomas F. Rosenbaum of the California Institute of Technology. "We look forward to moving ahead with this critical technology over the next few years." In April, Rep. Schiff and 25 Members from California, Washington and Oregon sent a letter to the Appropriations Committee urging them to fully fund an earthquake early warning system. Schiff’s letter requested additional funding for the Earthquake Hazards Program in USGS to kickstart the process of building out the early warning system so we can be ready for the next big quake. In the letter sent to the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Appropriations Subcommittee on the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies, the Members wrote: "Dear Chairman Calvert and Ranking Member Moran: "As you craft the Fiscal Year 2015 Interior and Environment Appropriations bill, we respectfully request that you provide the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) with
an additional $16.1 million for the construction, operation and maintenance of an Earthquake Early Warning System. "The USGS, in collaboration with Caltech, UC Berkeley, and the University of Washington, has developed an Earthquake Early Warning system that detects waves radiating from the epicenter of a quake and would provide people with several to tens of seconds of warning in California, and up to few minutes in Washington and Oregon through their phones, computers and other media. With advanced notice, people can take cover, automated systems can be triggered to slow down trains and manage the power grid, doctors can pause surgeries, and more. The technology has been tested and proven to work effectively. "An Earthquake Early Warning system along the West Coast would cost $16.1 million per year to construct, operate and maintain. FEMA has estimated that earthquakes cost the United States, averaged over the long term, more than $5 billion a year. This commonsense investment will save lives, protect businesses, and could make a real difference in more rapid recovery for local communities, the federal government and the economy as a whole. "While we cannot predict when and where the next major earthquake will hit, we must do all we can to prepare ourselves so that we can mitigate the injuries, destruction, and chaos as much as possible. We appreciate your consideration of our request, and we look forward to working with you."

Michael Feinstein and the Pasadena Pops celebrate ASCAP's Centennial
A who's-who of Hollywood’s music elite is coming out to play with Michael Feinstein at the Pasadena POPS’ August 16th Hooray for Hollywood concert, presented in partnership with the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) at the LA Arboretum. Four of ASCAP’s top film composers and lyricists will perform their hit music with the POPS: Alan Bergman (“Windmills of Your Mind,” with Marilyn Bergman and co-written with Michel Legrand, 1968 Oscar winner from The Thomas Crown Affair), Michael Giacchino (music fromUp, winner of the 2010 Oscar for best original score), Bruce Broughton (music from Silverado, 1986 Oscar nominee for best original score) and Paul Williams (“Evergreen,” cowritten with Barbra Streisand, 1976 Oscar winner from A Star Is Born). Powerhouse vocalists Maureen McGovern, Debby Boone and Kevin Earley will make special guest star appearances, singing such iconic songs as “The Way You Look Tonight,” “The Sound of Music,” “The Man That Got Away,” “Stormy Weather,” “Blues in the Night,” “You Light Up My Life” and “On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe,” plus beloved music from Mary Poppins, The Magnificent Seven, Funny Girl and a symphonic arrangement of Pharrell Williams’s 2014 Oscar-nominated song “Happy” from Despicable Me 2, created especially for the Pasadena POPS. Hooray for Hollywood is part of ASCAP’s ongoing, year-long 100th birthday celebration. ASCAP hit its 100-year milestone in February and is celebrating the centennial with a new book, a commissioned short film, and an innovative website featuring a timeline of ASCAP's rich history. In addition, celebratory and educational events spanning the country include a Library of Congress exhibit in Washington DC, reflecting ASCAP's energy and ex-
pertise throughout its history advocating for music creators’ rights. This exhibit will be on display at Disney Hall in Los Angeles later this year. Find out more at www.ascap100. com. "ASCAP's 100th birthday provides us with an exciting opportunity to celebrate our future as much as our history," says ASCAP President and Chairman
Paul Williams, one of the featured performers at Hooray for Hollywood. "It gives us a chance to honor and thank our members for creating the music that touches the world, while emphasizing ASCAP's ongoing and important role in helping to shape a musical landscape where everyone wins – music creators, businesses and everyone who loves music. We are proud to include this Pasadena POPS event as part of ASCAP's centennial celebration." The family-friendly concert will be held at the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden. The grounds are open for picnicking and dining at 5:30 p.m. and performances begin at 7:30 p.m. Among many venue amenities, audiences can enjoy pre-ordered gourmet dining packages for onsite pickup from Julienne, Marston’s and Claud & Co. The food court will host mouthwatering food trucks plus specialty ice creams by Choctál. The experience is now even more convenient with two full beverage centers serving fine wines, beer, coffee and soft drinks plus exclusive hotel packages for POPS patrons at Pasadena’s landmark Langham Huntington Ho-
tel. Patrons may also visit the Pasadena Humane Society's Mobile Adoption Unit, which will be on-site prior to each concert with animals in need of a forever home as part of the Pups for POPS program. Audiences get the ultimate outdoor concert experience: large LED video screens, superior sound quality and the high-quality production value that is a signature of the Pasadena POPS. The best outdoor dinner party in town comes with spacious circular table seating with fine linens, or lawn seating for those who want to bring a blanket – each option carries on the tradition of picnicdining with your family and friends.

Author heats up summer reading with debut of paranormal romance novel the 'Imati'
To write a novel is impressive at any age. To do so after graduating from Yale, earning a living as a working journalist in the heart of Los Angeles, and writing screenplays for feature films that have since been produced all before you turn 30, is almost as unbelievable as most fiction. That is, unless you are C.T. Hillin. And so begins yet another exciting chapter of her prolific life as Santa Monicabased Taryn Hillin, pen name C.T. Hillin, adds published author to her burgeoning resume with the release of her debut novel, The Imati, a beautifully descritive novel that revolves around a threecentury-old Imati with the face of a seventeen-year-old girl. Available at www.theimati.com and on Amazon as well as other online retailers and as an eBook, The Imati is an original entry in the highly popular teen-to-young-adult Supernatural and Paranormal Romance arenas. “I originally was inspired to write The Imati because I wanted to turn the Young Adult / superhero formula upside down so to speak. A lot of classic YA fantasy books are about an ordinary teenager becoming extraordinary (gaining a superpower, finding out they hunt shadows, learning about vampires, or
becoming a wizard),” said Hillin of the novel she describes as a mix of fantasy, mythology, romance, adventure and historical fiction. “I wanted to explore a character that was already extraordinary (in this case an immortal) and what would happen if she became ordinary again?” Creatively blending Hillin’s love of history and propensity for world travel, much of The Imati is told through flashbacks, placing the lead character, Alastrina Byrne, back in the 1700's, 1800's and 1900's as well as in present day. Both lending significant authenticity to her writing, Hillin is able to incorporate a reference of first-hand experience and knowledge of various locations throughout the world into her work. Among the places she has visited are Paris, Thailand, Italy, Japan, China, Turkey, Ireland, the Czech Republic and more. “I took places and events in history and shaped a lot of the book around that,” continued Hillin. “I put her in situations like The French Revolution so we could see, through a teenager's eyes, what it is was like to live back then.” While historical references are a bonus for readers, Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy fans can rejoice that The Imati is set in a highly-imaginative and visionary world of immortals, Souljumpers, Seekers and ancient prophecies. The Imati, which Hillin refers to a “coming of age story at its heart,” takes readers on an entertaining and thought-provoking journey that demonstrates how the decisions we make in the past, have consequences in our future.
Fortunately it was a positive decision for Hillin to pursue her passion for writing. In addition to being an author and writing screenplays, Hillin works as a journalist for The Huffington Post. “I've been ‘writing’ since I was a kid. Short stories. Poetry. When I went to Yale I wrote a bit for The Yale Herald and a couple student magazines. I graduated in 2007 and in my off time from work, I would come home and write plays, short films… it's LA after all,” laughs Hillin with a signature quick wit that is evident throughout The Imati. On that note, Hillin shares that not only does she plan to turn her novel into a book series, but there are already talks of a The Imati screenplay in the future. “We've been talking with production companies about making a movie,” said Hillin, whose feature film writing credits include the action-thriller A Stranger In Paradise, starring Colin Egglesfield, Stuart Townsend and Oscar nominated Catalina Sandino Moreno and the soon-to-be-released horror flick Pernicious. “The Imati is written very cinematically.” With her usual determination and dedication to her craft, Hillin plans to continue writing for all mediums and is currently working on another YA novel about time travel titled "The Record Keepers." Wearing her many hats at the same time may be a bit difficult at times but her advice to other aspiring young writers is not. “Write...just write. Write and write some more,” said Hillin. “The more you write the better you get.”
MICK FOLEY The Ice House August 12
WWE’s Hardcore Legend, Mick Foley. His multi-faceted career has seen Foley turn from 3-time WWE champion to 2-time New York Times #1 best-selling author to his present incarnation as sole proprietor of his one-man stage show "Hardcore Legend: An Evening With Mick Foley.” Showcasing his trademark blend of wildness and warmth, and combining the humor fans loved from his books and in-ring “promos,” with the intensity of his most famous matches, “Hardcore Legend: An Evening With Mick Foley” is by turns uproariously funny, simply surreal, and surprisingly sensitive a full-course meal for the senses, including Q&A and meet and greet - all done with the use of a just one,
solitary F-bomb. His shows have already garnered a collection of stellar reviews from around the globe. Chortle, the UK’s most respected comedy source said, “onstage, Foley is charm personified: eloquent, self-effacing and funny.” Bestselling author Paul O’Brien, writing for The Layfield Report raved, “He always leaves them laughing. Laughing, standing at the end and always wanting more.” Even the decidedly non-wrestling publication Broadway Babies mused “If you’re interested at all in wrestling, you’ll love it; if you’re not, you’ll like it.” Showtime: 8:00PM / Tickets: $25-$32 / Call: 626-577-1894 Visit: http://icehousecomedy.com The Ice House is located at 24 N Mentor Ave. Pasadena
CONGRATULATIONS! TO OUR WEEKLY WINNER
'Clarion Singers' will preview UK tour concert program in Monrovia - July 20 Southern California chamber choir The Clarion Singers will present a sneak preview of works to be performed during their August tour of the UK on Sundayevening, July 20, at 7 p.m. at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, 122 S. California Ave. in Monrovia. The a capella performance will include works by Lassus, Harris, Monteverdi, Aston, and Gjeilo. Admission is free; there will be a freewill offering.
The choir, dedicated to performing both sacred and secular music of early through contemporary composers, is currently rehearsing for its UK tour in August. The group was formed last year after a handful of Los Angeles-based singers decided they enjoyed working as part of a smaller group as opposed to the larger choirs and ensembles they were accustomed to. Performing pieces with only two voices
singing a part, or sometimes even one, presented a unique and exciting challenge and created a very different sound. The group focuses mainly on works which can be performed a capella and without a conductor, relying on the group dynamic for tempo and expression. The core group of singers is sometimes augmented as the occasion demands so larger works can be performed.

All-American Soap Box Derby comes to Long Beach
The granddaddy of all inertia motor-sports – The All-American Soap Box Derby - makes its formal Long Beach racing debut, August 23/24 alongside the Queen Mary. A special track will be installed adjacent to the ship and is designed to propel young racers. The gravity-fueled cars will run in several classes, including a novice class reserved for first-time competitors. "Walk the pits of any major racing event and you're likely to meet a former Soap Box Derby racer. The same can be said of the automakers and automotive specialty parts industry - where many innovators and executives first sat behind the wheel of a soap box car," said Queen Mary GM, John Jenkins. "With Long Beach hosting the Grand Prix each year, we thought it was time to create a family-oriented racing event; what better than soap box racing?" The August 23/24 racing meet will attract already proven Soap Box competitors, first time builderracers and youngsters from area clubs and associations. All entrants are welcome and there is no cost for first time racers to compete.
"Our goal is to test the concept of hosting a major Soap Box race at the Queen Mary. The August race will tell us something about how to create a race event that might be scheduled to coincide with the annual Long
Beach Grand Prix weekend," Jenkins added. The Soap Box Derby came to public attention as the Great Depression ravaged the country. Many competitors were newspaper boys and sponsored by their local paper. Some qualified to race at Akron where the Derby World Championships are still held each year. The Queen's Cup event will see points awarded to those racers already on the Derby trail and

Voted Best Plumber in SGV
Another fabulous Fourth at Century 21 Village Realty
CENTURY 21 Village Realty in Sierra Madre was one of the few real estate offices open on July fourth. This is the 28th year that Village has participated in the annual Sierra Madre Parade and this year the office gave 700 hundred bags of popcorn and 1000 balloons to all of the parade watchers and participants. Andy Bencosme, managing broker, thanked all of the agents and their families who helped blow up the balloons and hand out the popcorn. “This is a great event for the community and it’s nice to see everyone’s families bonding while we prepare for the parade.” As usual, a
good time was had by all and everyone is looking forward to participating next year. REALTOR® Emily Duggan said, "It's great to see all the kids each year come out and help. They grow so fast!" "This parade and helping the office with the balloons has become a tradition in my family," added REALTOR Gary Hawthorne, whose kids, Faith and Hunter, have been participating for years. REALTOR Ted Rudolph, participating for the first time stated, "I had no idea how much fun and how many people turn out for the parade! I will definitely be back next year!"

Point of no return? Once upon a time, my wife and I had seriously considered leaving California and making another state home. We considered Colorado, drove around neighborhoods in Wasilla, AK, and browsed hundreds of listings near Olympia, Washington. The year was 2007, equity in our home was plentiful and the prospect of having little to no mortgage was within reach by moving to a less expensive part of the country. Vacillation at first, our love for the San Gabriel Valley and the collapse of 2008 shelved our plans. In the years following the downturn we saw our equity shrink considerably and after awhile the goal of departure moved further into the distance. Now, we have made strong roots in town and with the market improvements our little household economy has begun to see improvement. Back when we were

Everyday is an open house:
mortgage? Does anyone in the family want to buy the home? What of the taxes? These are among the many questions people encounter. For that reason, many a time there's a discussion among the client's accountant, financial planner, estate attorney, and real estate professionals (if relocating). The search may take awhile and honest dialogue is paramount. Especially between couples. In life there's many different ways to reach your destination and that's true regardless of the times you live in. Good counsel and lots of planning are key and it would be wise to surround yourself with service folks whose career it is to help. The goal is to take on the next strategic move with the wild sense of adventure. Hugo Torres can be found on Facebook at facebook.com/monrovian21

Enforced water conservation
Continued from page 1
should be done statewide to extend diminishing water supplies. With this regulation, all Californians will be expected to stop: washing down driveways and sidewalks; watering of outdoor landscapes that cause excess runoff; using a hose to wash a motor vehicle, unless the hose is fitted with a shut-off nozzle, and using potable water in a fountain or decorative water feature, unless the water is recirculated. The regulation makes an exception for health and safety circumstances. Larger water suppliers will be required to activate their Water Shortage Contingency Plan to a level where outdoor irrigation restrictions are mandatory. In communities where no water shortage contingency plan exists, the regulation requires that water suppliers either limit outdoor irrigation to twice a week or implement other comparable conservation actions. Finally, large water suppliers must report water use on a monthly basis to track progress. Local agencies could

ask courts to fine water users up to $500 a day for failure to implement conservation requirements in addition to their existing authorities and processes. The State Water Board could initiate enforcement actions against water agencies that don't comply with the new regulations. Failure to comply with
a State Water Board enforcement order by water agencies is subject to up to a $10,000 a day penalty. "We are facing the worst drought impact that we or our grandparents have ever seen," said State Water Board Chair Felicia Marcus. "And, more important, we have no idea when it will end.”

Chu’s wild & scenic on the table By Lois M. Shade
Congresswoman Judy Chu’s Wild & Scenic River legislation is on the table in D.C. for discussion and implementation. When Chu asked San Gabriel Valley cities through Council of Governments to support the National Recreation Area legislation, she also requested support for Wild & Scenic River legislation and the Wilderness Act she was proposing for the Angeles and San Bernardino Mountains. The COG took no action on the Wild & Scenic and Wilderness pieces, but NRA has been introduced as HR 4858 with co-sponsors, Congressmen Adam Schiff and Tony Cardenas, both California democrats. Apr 17, 2 014 National Recreation Area Legislation). Using this link you can view the map and areas impacted by NRA legislation: http://www.arcgis.com/home/ webmap/viewer.html To achieve Wild & Scenic River designation, Congress or Secretary of Interior, must find that river, or
section(s) of river, contribute significantly to the environment with extraordinary scenic, geologic, historic, and cultural resources, fish and wildlife to be preserved, and recreational opportunities. US Fish & Wildlife defines the 3 categories in Wild & Scenic as • Wild - inaccessible except by trail, with primitive watersheds and shorelines; • Scenic - shorelines or watersheds still primitive, undeveloped, but accessible in places by roads; • Recreational - sections of rivers accessible by road, may have some development along shorelines, may have undergone diversion in the past. Congresswoman Chu’s Wild & Scenic Rivers legislation assigns Secretary of Agriculture/Forest Service to oversee: 1. East Fork, San Gabriel River – a. 10 mile segment from Prairie Fork / Vincent Gulch to 100 yards upstream of Heaton Flats trailhead wild river
b. 2.7 mile segment from 100 yards upstream of Heaton Flats to 100 yards upstream of confluence with Williams Canyon – recreational river 2. North Fork, San Gabriel River – a. 4.3 mile segment from confluence with Cloudburst Canyon to .25 miles upstream of confluence with West Fork – recreational river 3. West Fork, San Gabriel River a. 6.7 mile segment from .25 miles downstream of source near Red Box Gap with confluence of unnamed tributary ¼ mile downstream of power lines – recreational river b. 1.6 mile segment from ¼ mile downstream of power lines to confluence with Bobcat Canyon – wild river 4. San Antonio Creek a. 1-mile segment of the creek from its source to San Antonio Falls – wild river – Exception: Secretary of Agriculture MAY permit
continued operation of historic San Antonio Ski Hut 5. Middle Fork Lytle Creek a. 4.3 mile segment from source to Cucamonga Peak – wild river b. 1.2 mile segment from an area with only meets & bounds description – recreational river 6. Little Rock Creek a. 10.3 mile segment from source on Mt. Williamson to 100 yards upstream of confluence with South Fork Little Rock Creek – wild river b. 6.6 mile segment from 100 yards upstream of confluence with South Fork Little Rock Creek to confluence with Santiago Canyon – recreational river c. 1 mile segment of Cooper Canyon Creek from .25 miles downstream of Highway 2 to 100 yards downstream of Cooper Canyon Camp Ground – scenic river d. 1.3 mile segment of Cooper Canyon Creek from 100 yards downstream of Cooper Canyon Camp
Ground to confluence with Little Rock Creek – wild river e. 1 mile segment of Buckhorn Creek from 100 yards downstream of the Buckhorn Camp Ground to confluence with Cooper Canyon Creek – wild river San Antonio Ski Hut was built in 1937 by Ski Mountaineers section of the Sierra Club for everyone’s use and is still maintained by Sierra Club. Hut offers a fully equipped kitchen, running water, solar lighting and is available for use but reservations are required. Apparently Chu’s legislation may
restrict or eliminate any use by the Sierra Club or others. Recently Congressman Tom McClintock initiated HR 934 which adjusted boundaries of Wild & Scenic Merced River to provide critically needed water to the San Joaquin Valley. Wild & Scenic River designations are not absolute and Congress can adjust Wild & Scenic River boundaries, especially if it serves a greater good. As required by House Rule XIII regarding costs, it was stated there are no unfunded mandates and would impose no costs on state, local or tribal governments.

The tournament will take place July 18-20 at Marie Kerr Park (39700 30th St, Palmdale, CA 93551). “These young women have worked hard as a team to be able to compete at this level,” said El Monte City Councilwoman Victoria Martinez, a long-time coach with the Fillies. “We are all proud of their great showing
at the District tournament and are rooting them on this weekend!” The team of 14 local girls, ages 12-14, recently took second place at the Northern League District championship in La Habra, allowing them to advance to the State Championships. Nine teams competed in the District Tournament that took place June 27-29. The team members were selected after the regular season’s recreation play. All were deemed top players by the coaches. Three
of the team members have been playing together for the past five years. “We have a great group of girls who are really dedicated to their sport,” said Assistant Coach Alejandra Peralta, whose daughter Maddie is a pitcher on the team. “We are already so proud that they accomplished making it to State and we know that together as a team they will go far in the next round of play.” The All-Star team has been practicing four days a week since mid-May.

L.A. County approves full implementation of Laura’s Law mental health program A compassionate, cost-effective approach, proven to reduce incarceration and homelessness
The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved implementing Laura’s Law, a comprehensive, treatmentbased approach for the mentally ill -- many of whom are incapable of recognizing their illness, announced Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich. “Laura’s Law has proven to significantly improve the lives of program of participants, decrease incarceration, reduce homelessness, and
enhance public safety,” said Supervisor Antonovich. “It provides a humane alternative to the revolving door of mental hospitals, jails and the street.” Supervisor Antonovich, who has worked tirelessly to support this effort, collaborated with former Assemblywoman Helen Thomson who authored the legislation that reformed the 1967 Lanterman-Petris-Short law.
Laura’s Law was named after Laura Wilcox who was killed by a delusional individual suffering with severe mental illness and patterned after New York State’s Kendra’s Law. Initiated by Supervisor Antonovich, the County had previously adopted a successful pilot program which has resulted in a 78% reduction in incarcerations and a 77% reduction in hospitalizations among program participants.

Sierra Madre PD
Tuesday, July 8th At approximately 7:42 pm, Sierra Madre Police performed a traffic stop on a vehicle that did not have license plates displayed. Upon making contact with the suspect, he informed Officers that he had recently purchased his vehicle a year ago and his plates were stole
a month prior, so he only has the dealership paper plates on the vehicle. A records check revealed the plates were never reported stolen and that the registration was expired two years. Through further investigation, an Officer removed the paper plates and uncovered the vehicle’s California plates that the suspect said were stolen. The suspect ultimately admitted he did not pay the registration and placed the paper plates to avoid paying any penalties. The suspect was cited for expired registration over six months and his vehicle was towed. Thursday, July 10th At approximately 5:43 pm, Sierra Madre Police responded to the 140 Block of Grove Street for a medical assistance call.

The suspect informed Officers that he had been drinking all day and no longer wished to live, but did not actually remember cutting himself. The suspect was treated for his injuries and transported to a local hospital. The suspect was placed on a 72 hour hospital hold for evaluation. Thursday, July 10th At 8:48 pm, Sierra Madre Police responded to the 300 block of East Laurel Ave. regarding a restraining order violation. Upon arrival, Officers were informed by the victim that his wife, of which he has a restraining order against, drove by his residence as he was coming up the street. He stated the vehicle slowly approached the front of his residence then quickly drove off. He took note due to the fact that the vehicle had its headlights off and it was dark out. The victim took note of the vehicle’s license plate and recognized it to be that of his wife. Efforts to contact the suspect were unsuccessful
as the suspect’s cell phone has been disconnected. This case has been forwarded to the District Attorney’s Office for violation of a restraining order. Saturday, July 12th At approximately 11:36 am, Sierra Madre Police responded to the station lobby regarding an identity theft report. Officers were informed by the victim that she recently had been away on a trip, and upon returning she checked her bank account online. The victim noticed a transfer in the amount of over $5,000 from her savings to her checking was made, which then proceeded to an amount of over $9,000 wired to a bank in North Carolina. When the victim made contact with her bank, she was informed someone called to make the transfer and the bank mistakenly thought it was in fact the victim authorizing the transfer as she has regularly done so in the past. This case has been forwarded to the Detectives Bureau.

American Little wasted no time -two championships in two years
After waiting decades to win its first age 9-10 California District 17 AllStar Tournament last year, Arcadia American Little wasted no time last week making it two championships in two years. Mikey Easter capped an incredible tournament with two home runs and five RBIs, Brandon Nguyen knocked in four runs of his own, and Devon Eskridge had four hits and three RBIs as AALL overwhelmed East Altadena, 19-7, in the championship game Wednesday night at Farnsworth Park in Altadena. The win was AALL's fifth in the tournament in five games. Arcadia outscored its opponents 76-12 in a dominant display of youth baseball that included not just an explosive offense, but strong defense and some great pitching. AALL's first three tournament wins were the result of early double-digit leads and shut-out mound efforts. Against a determined EALL team that gamely fought to the title game through the loser's bracket
with key wins over San Marino and Santa Anita, AALL scored six times in the top of the second inning after two were out to take command. It was enough offense then and there to help Guy Gruppie, Jr. get his second pitching victory in three days, but AALL was hardly done at the plate, scoring three in the fourth inning, twice in the fifth and eight more times in the sixth. Easter hit a towering fly ball homer to center field with one on on the second, then homered again in the fifth, again with a runner on but this time his drive was so deep to right field,it cleared the fence and the backup fence. When E. J. Davis induced a ground ball to first baseman Nguyen for the final out, it set off a raucous celebration as AALL successfully defended its 9-10 championship and ran its record to 9-0 at Farnsworth Park over two all-star seasons. One of the better games in that stretch came Monday night against Santa Anita, where AALL led early, then fell behind and then rallied
to win, 11-5, in the winner's bracket final. AALL took a 2-0 lead but Santa Anita got one back in the bottom of the first then chased starter Matt McIntire with four in the second and AALL found itself trailing in the tournament for the first time, 5-2. Gruppie singled in a run in the third to get AALL closer but more important, came out of the bullpen to stop Santa Anita's offense with 2 1/3 clutch scoreless innings. Before Easter came on to pitch the bottom of the fifth, Nolan Anthony doubled in a run, Jacob Babakhanian singled Anthony in to tie it and then who else but Easter put AALL ahead for good with an RBI ground out. That set the stage for a spectacular six-out, two-inning save by Easter, separated by a five-run Arcadia sixth inning that included a long two-run homer by Easter and two-run double by Eskridge. The game finally ended at 10:50 pm, just before the local curfew with AALL outhitting SALL, 16-7. Getting past its first three opponents was considerably

easier for AALL. In the opener against Pasadena Central, Arcadia scored 10 runs in the first and made thing easy for McIntire who was brilliant of the mound. He allowed one hit, and struck out six with no walks in earning the victory. Easter had two hits and four RBI, including a homer, each, Gruppie had four hits and four RBIs, Anthony knocked in three runs, McIntire had two RBI, and Eskridge three hits to pace a
19-hit attack. In the second round, AALL got off to an even better start with 11 runs in the first inning as Easter tossed a four-inning shutout in beating Sierra Madre, 130. Gruppie had three RBI to lead Arcadia, and he, Easter, McIntire, Babakhanian and Lance Wong all knocked in two runs. AALL's third straight shutout victim was tournament host Central Altadena, 14-0. McIntire and
Davis combined on a fourinning one hitter and Davis helped his own cause with three RBIs, Easter added four and both Easter and Nguyen had three hits. Gruppie had a big two-run triple in AALL's nine-run third inning. Easter had an amazing 20 RBIs in the tournament with four homers, Gruppie knocked in 11 with four extra-base hits, McIntire had 10 RBIs, Nguyen had 14 hits total and Eskridge 12 as AALL hit .479 as a team.

Sierra Madre says it could lose $1Million due to loss of UUT By SHEL SEGAL
The city of Sierra Madre is being hit in the pocket book on two fronts with the recently passed building moratorium and the sun-setting of the city’s user utility tax. And while Elaine Aguilar, city manager in Sierra Madre, doesn’t think the city will be hit too hard by losing revenue by not issuing building permits, she said the loss of the UUT could ultimately cost the city $1 million, causing city council members to have to make choices of where to make cuts. Aguilar said the city always budgets with the thought that not much in terms of building revenue will find its way into city coffers. “On the development revenue forefront, the good news is we always budget conservatively,” Aguilar said. “So, the revenue numbers from
the development side, we didn’t increase the numbers from last year thinking we’re going to have more development coming in. It will impact our building permit-related revenues. But we didn’t include those in the budget to begin with because we always base the current year on the last year.” She added while the city has received much revenue in the way of permits with the Kensington Project – an assisted living facility on Sierra Madre Boulevard and Hermosa Avenue that’s currently under construction – she said she realizes that’s a one-time payment and shouldn’t be used to forecast revenues for the future. “We had a big uptick because of the Kensington Project,” she said. “We actually took those revenues out because we knew we weren’t
going to have another Kensington. So, on the development side I don’t predict there’s anything significant we’re going to have to do.” However, how the city deals with the reduction in the UUT is a different situation, she said. “On the sunsetting of the UUT, it goes from 10 percent to 8 percent on July 1, 2015 and to 6 percent on July 1, 2016,” Aguilar said. “It goes down 2 percent a year. Each of those 2 percent (decreases) are about $500,000. We’re estimating by the time it finally sunsets down to 6 percent it will be $1 million less in UUT revenues.” And what will the council do? Aguilar said that’s up to the council members. “The council’s options are they can start reducing expenditures now so that by the time

community gives them the guidance they seek. “Mater Dolorosa and our development partner have invested significant resources searching for long-term solutions to the pressing challenges we are faced with,” he said. “The purpose of our current community outreach is to invite all who wish to share their opinions an opportunity to meet with us in small group settings. We want to hear from our fellow citizens, providing them with the opportunity to voice their concerns and address their desires as we move forward with designing our project.” While fighting to stop the development of Mater Dolorosa, Matt Bryant, spokesman for Coalition to Preserve Mater Dolorosa and Stop the Housing Project, said the group’s efforts are really coming to fruition. “I think this has become a bigger issue than just Mater Dolorosa,” Bryant said. “I think it’s about preserving Sierra Madre, putting Sierra Madre on a sustainable path. Certainly, you’ve got the water emergency.
Everybody sees that. Everybody feels the impact of that.” Bryant said his group was able to shed light on bigger problems in Sierra Madre, not just those right in their neighborhood. “You also have the infrastructure issues, you have the general plan commandment’s preserving open space and things like that,” he said. “It’s not just about Mater Dolorosa anymore.” He added he thinks the moratorium was the correct move for the city council to make. “It would be irresponsible to be any less than that,” he said. “There are just too many things in motion right now. The state already declared an emergency (because of the drought) and now they’re thinking of enacting some other measures, too. You’ve got the situation with the connection to the (Metropolitan Water District). "You’ve got the yellow and unhealthy water we all experience. And you’ve got a general plan that’s in the process of getting finalized and approved. Until we kind
of get a handle on some of these things…you just have to freeze everything and not put any more stress on our existing resources.” (Shel Segal can be contacted through email at ssegal@ beaconmedianews.com. He can also be followed via Twitter @segallanded.)
it completely sunsets in two years we’ve reduced gradually over time,” she said. “Our budget this year is still balanced because we still have the full 10 percent.
"The council can decide let’s leave the budget as-is, but when we come back let’s talk about reducing expenditures then. At this point I don’t have direction from the
council on what direction they prefer to take.” (Shel Segal can be reached at ssegal@ beaconmedianews.com. He can be followed via Twitter @segallanded.)

the following: “Pasadena Police Department (“PD”) civilian oversight should increase by engaging a professional Police Auditor who has the power and duty to audit and monitor the PD’s policies, operations, and procedures, and who provides a path for community input on the PD; s/he would be an independent contractor reporting to the City Council’s Public Safety Committee like field representatives reporting to Councilmembers.”
The proposition being debated has been endorsed as a reform plan by the NAACP and Pasadena Foothill Democratic Club and as a general concept by the Coalition for Increased Civilian Oversight of Pasadena Police; ACT’s membership is presently voting on the proposition.

PROJECT
704-712W. Las Tunas Dr.
ADDRESS:
San Gabriel, CA 91776
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The proposed project includes a renovation to two existing commercial buildings along with the demolition of one commercial building, which will be replaced with a three story mixed-use development with approximately 61,026 square feet, including 4,814 square feet of commercial space and 37 residential condominium units. There is existing parking on site for the commercial uses and additional parking will be provided for the residential uses with one level of subterranean parking plus another level of at-grade parking. The property is designated as Commercial Specific Plan in the General Plan, and zoned Mission District Village in the Mission District Specific Plan area. The proposed project would require a Conditional Use Permit to allow mixed-use on the property, a Tentative Tract Map to consolidate the parcels and subdivide the airspace for the residential condominium units, and a Precise Plan of Design review by the Design Review Commission. QUESTIONS: For additional information or to review the application or environmental review, please contact Larissa De La Cruz, Associate Planner at (626) 308-2806 ext. 4625. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The project was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and staff determined that the project proposal required a Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact. The Mitigated Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact was prepared and posted with the Los Angeles County Clerk on July 3, 2014. Per Government Code Section 65009, if you challenge the nature of this proposed action in court, you may be limited to only raising those issues you or someone else raised at the public hearing described in this notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the Planning Division at or prior to the public hearing.

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of EVANGELINE LOPEZ SUBIA A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Richard A. Subia in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Richard A. Subia be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the dece-dent. THE PETITION requests the decedent's will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for exami-nation in the file kept by the court. THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A HEARING on the petition will be held on Sept. 11, 2014 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 5 located at 111 N. Hill St., Los Angeles, CA 90012. IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your ap-pearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowl-edgeable in California law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk. Petitioner: Richard A. Subia RICHARD A SUBIA 621 S SUN RD APACHE JCT AZ 85119 CN900747 Published July 17,21,24, 2014 AZUSA BEACON

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.

death penalty. The horrific triple homicide played out last Saturday when Pasadena Police Department received several 9-1-1 calls from residents reporting shots fired in the 1700 block of Summit Avenue that afternoon. Upon arrival, the initial officer observed a victim down on the sidewalk and attempted to render aid when he came under heavy and sustained gunfire from the suspect. Following the killing of the victims and the attempted murder of the officer, the suspect barricaded himself in a home on Summit Avenue. Pasadena Police officers quickly contained the area. During the standoff, the suspect, Smith, 44, called the police department’s communication center and spoke with an Emergency Services Operator Diane Marin, who helped convince the gunman to surrender to Pasadena SWAT officers without further incident after a tense dialogue with the operator. “The first thing he said was ‘I killed somebody,' ” said police dispatcher, Diane Marin, during a Monday press conference at the Pasadena Police Department. Through the nearly hour-long ordeal, Pasadena Police officers never returned gunfire at the suspect. In the end, five victims were shot. Three were murdered and two received moderate injuries. Smith was transported to the Pasadena jail and booked for several felony charges including murder. He is now in Men’s Central Jail awaiting arraignment. During the press conference a melancholy mayor Bill Bogaard stressed the importance of getting handguns off the streets and out of the hands on mentally challenged individuals. He stressed the importance of gun control legislation, echoing the drumbeat of countless politicians across these United States. Mr. Bogaard said it’s tragic that Pasadena has been added to the list of cities that have faced mass shootings such as Saturday’s triple homicide in NW Pasadena. Nevertheless, Chief Sanchez later pointed out that Mr. Smith has no criminal record and, added “there’s no indication Smith suffers from mental illness." At the press conference,

police also released three minutes of 9-1-1 calls and a portion of Smith’s call to police. One of the 9-11 callers said she heard gunshots, possibly 15, and saw people running. “The courage of our dispatchers, police officers and community members was valiant and speaks to resolve of the community,” Chief Sanchez said. The Los Angeles county District Attorney’s Office, Crimes Against Police Officers (CAPO) also responded to assist with the investigation Saturday. Chief Sanchez of the Pasadena Police Dept. said: “The shooting on Summit Avenue ( Saturday) was an isolated, tragic and horrific incident. The suspect willfully murdered and injured innocent people without warning as he fired more than 40 rounds from a semi-automatic rifle. However, the courage of our dispatchers, police officers, fire fighters and community members who valiantly tried to help the victims is impressive and speaks to resolve of our community. Please take a moment to say a prayer for everyone impacted by this senseless crime.” Police believed initially the shooting took place as a result of a landlord-tenant dispute. However there may have been long-term relationship between the suspect and the victims, according to Chief Sanchez. Police wouldn’t comment further on the dispute citing ongoing investigations Sanchez said Mr. Smith legally bought two assault rifles and a semiautomatic pistol according to records.
Police said Luis Fernando Aguiar, 91, was fatally shot first in the house. The shooter then hunted down Maria Aguiar, 59, and another woman. He shot both women. Maria Aguiar was killed. The second woman suffered grazed wounds in the arm and head, Sanchez said. The third fatality was a ‘Good Samaritan’ identified by police as 31-year-old Jose Hernandez Iribe of Pasadena. Iribe and a friend were walking on the sidewalk. Iribe ran toward the sound of the gunfire and subsequently became a target of Mr. Smith. Luis Fernando Aguiar of Pasadena is the father of Maria Aguiar.
The non-profit, Theatre Of Hearts’ newest initiative and its first for seniors called, Creative Aging Artist in Residence (CAAIR) will exhibit next week. Seniors at Arcadia Park are presenting their original photographic works resulting from a 12week class with a professional photographic artist. Founded in 1987, it is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit 501(c)3 corporation whose vision is to promote understanding between people through cultural and artistic forums, and to empower local communities through education in the arts. More information is available
at www.theatreofhearts.org “This population we are serving has no prior experience in fine art photography and lack the resources to take a class of this nature,” says Theatre Of Hearts Director and Founder, Sheila Scott-Wilkinson. “By providing CAAIR class for free, these baby boomers are not only learning the ways digital cameras, technology and social media function, they are also seeing the world through the eyes of an artist.” In addition to improvements in memory and cognitive ability, feedback from program
participants on the social benefits is a powerful testimony to the impact the program is providing: “I am a senior revisiting what I did as a youth,” says Debbie Prohias, an Arcadia County Park participant. “Technology has mushroomed from what we had before. I can't wait for the next class; there is so much to learn. It has opened up a great vista, it is another way to express myself. People should take this class because of the ability to socialize. When I walk down the street, I can open up a conversation and meet people. It's an artistic thing”.
